It begins to look like the 2021 elections put a decisive end to the Woke-Jacobin-Progressive reign-of-terror, and its demonic efforts to cancel the authority of truth in human affairs — truth being derived from reality. For years, in an ever-escalating campaign of coercion, persecution, and punishment, the WJPs made their own reality-optional “truth” and foolishly expected the nation to roll over for it. On Tuesday, voters all over the land, in effect, whapped the Party of Chaos upside its head with thirty inches of No. 6 rebar and said “no more.” Days later, the Wokesters are still seeing stars and planets blink in their temporal lobes.
The Virginia governor’s contest illustrated plainly and clearly what was at issue, all crystalized in the Loudoun County School Board’s idiotic behavior this past year. First was the sex module of the mess: A fifteen-year-old boy pretending to be a girl in a dress raped an actual teenage girl in a “Girls’” bathroom. The Loudoun County School Board covered it up so as not to interfere with its innovative gender confusion pedagogy. The boy rapist was transferred to another school where he committed the same crime all over again. Very bad optics. And WJP candidate Terry McAuliffe told parents to stay out of it, stupidly driving a stake through his own heart in the process.
Second was the Woke race module, namely Critical Race Theory, the principle that American society is hopelessly and systemically racist and that white people need to be punished for it. The School Board and its political allies denied that this doctrine of Marxist identity politics was being worked into the curriculum. They were lying, of course, and stupidly, because it was very easy to prove.
Now, I’m going to tell you succinctly what is behind Critical Race Theory, and it’s going to hurt: After sixty-odd years of civil rights policy and legislation, a sizable cohort of African-Americans are not making it in this society and white WJPs (aka “liberals”) are stricken with guilt and shame at the failure of their efforts to uplift this group and heal the world. So, they’ve teamed up with the nation’s race hustlers to construct a scaffold of excuses for why this is so. The actual reasons for why this is so are taboo, namely, liberal deconstruction of American family life, unwillingness to prescribe behavioral norms, and self-sabotaging cultural choices such as the failure to promote the teaching of language skills as a primary task of public education — because ghetto English is more stigmatizing and economically disabling than skin color or any other feature of self-presentation, unless you are a professional comedian. That’s the cold, hard reality and that is what needs to change — but it won’t change as long as race-hustling (making money off the excuses) is considered “okay.”
Too many Americans see through the WJP sex-and-race nonsense and are now voting to evict it from the public square and run it out of the halls of power, at least at the state and local level. For now, though, it remains entrenched at the national level, in Washington, where it receives huge support from the very well-paid permanent bureaucracy that administers bad social policy. The 2021 election results suggest that the Woke Democrats will be run out of Congress and the White House in 2022 — if the USA can make it there without cracking up, which remains painfully uncertain under the toils of Covid-19.
The pandemic, so-called, invokes a dark suspicion of official misbehavior at a higher and more sinister level than the mere political inanities of Wokery. The public health officialdom has lied to the nation at every turn in this melodrama, and to the extent that many rational citizens think that the authorities are out to kill them. For instance, you have Dr. Fauci of the NIAID continuing to deny that he played any part in promoting gain-of-function research on viruses here and in the Wuhan lab. His latest dodge was to change the official definition of gain-of-function to an alphabet-salad of obfuscatory bullshit before a Senate committee — for which Senator Rand Paul once again accused him of lying and beseeched him to resign.
The CDC and the FDA have unleashed a set of untested vaccines on the public that have been shown to produce alarmingly high rates of adverse reactions, both disabling and leading to death. The CDC’s VAERS system for reporting all that is so janky that doctors can barely use it and the CDC refuses to fix it; meanwhile doctors are being punished for even attempting to report adverse reactions. The whole of medical officialdom has militated aggressively against early treatments of Covid-19 with cheap and easily available drugs, even firing doctors who attempt to use the protocols.
The entire approval process of the various vaccines has been rife with fraud, gamed statistics, sabotaged trials, bait-and-switch scams, and unaccountable manufacturing screw-ups — all immersed in a stench of moneygrubbing. The drug companies have refused to fully reveal the contents of the vaccines. Now they are ramping up an urgent campaign to vaccinate children following rushed and falsified clinical trials, with the statistical certainty that many more kids will be injured or will die from the vax than they would from Covid-19 itself.
Citizens have a right to object to this, and to the illegal vaccine “mandate” invoked by the pugnaciously stupid “Joe Biden” regime. There is an awful creeping suspicion in the USA and in other countries that people who have received vaccinations are beginning to present fatal cardiovascular and neurological illness in large numbers, and that an attempt is underway to cover all this up. There is likewise a growing body of evidence that the vaccines and “boosters” incrementally disable the human immune system so that later in the winter of 2021-2022 millions of people will be at risk of dying from Covid variants and virtually any other disease that comes along, including cancers. How many of us are prepared for that?

You can tie about 99.9% of this woke nonsense back to the gender-confused, pronoun-obsessed you know whos and their attempts to paint their perversion as a civil rights issue. Most of the people of color I know (all of whom are pretty much just like you and me in the sense that they work and love America) aren’t buying any of the bullshit.
Thank you!
It’s mainly white people who push the CRT nonsense.
The liberal “elite” whites…
The liberal “elite” whites who need a gig playing savior. And a nice salary for doing so.
Yes. Education pays better than being a social worker.
JMG the Archdruid once wrote an article about what he called “The Rescue Game”. CRT is the institutionalized version of The Rescue Game. The game has roles for three players – Victim (blacks), persecutor (bad whitey), and rescuer (good whitey). You can guess how the game goes, and your assigned role.

In their damned pursuit for power at the national level.
90% of Blacks are still too ignorant to realize they have voted as a bloc for the Democratic Party since 1964 and gotten nothing for it. Do they realize that by doing so, they are still political slaves in this country.
Blacks are a maternal society trying to compete with a strongly paternalistic European based society. The lack of male discipline and direction especially with young men cripples Black Society. Female Black society has increasingly become more dependent on the Federal government for sustenance. The combination is very similar to the Native American reservations. In both, males with no purpose except seeding the females lose their purpose in life and fall into drug or alcohol dependency. A small percentage figure their way out of this losing model and become very successful. A substantial percentage “succeed” by getting into crime. Wokeism has increased the latter substantially.
How to fix it? Get the Soros sponsored local shills out of the city governments and put solid fiscally conservative replacements in place. People that will condemn crime and put all those mules and users back into the slammer. People who will use local talent raise the economic boats and keep the Federal carpetbaggers out of their cities. Strive for independence!
There is a long long way to go, but Virginia may have shown that if you insult people long enough, they may finally start to get it.
Blacks had a choice of Obama or Romney their last time around.
I’ll offer that election was rigged in a number of ways, the outcome never in doubt.
Further, the “televised debates” are run by the uniparty, also known as the duopoly, to keep any serious debaters out of the debate and channel the discussion towards their selected individual.
Since television is the way a huge % of the population receives its daily dose of propaganda passed off as “news”, controlling who made it to the stage was managed from the start by a polling system designed to eliminate all but the two, who made their scheduled appearance according to the plan.
Dudley DoRight and the Kenyan wasn’t any sort of a contest.
A number of people raised money to fund an effort to change this system in the courts. The effort failed. The regime won.
My opinion is the courts are mostly, but not exclusively, rigged.
Thus the recourse to redress such issues is constantly being narrowed to a minimum of choices.
This is where it gets interesting, and not in a good way.
Yes, Roasted Vanilla or Artificially Flavored Vanilla.

Yes JohnAZ, Leftists continue to believe it’s all about throwing more money at the problem. No, it’s about young black men (not all, but a large number of them) finding their purpose in life and embracing values and behavior leading to a successful life.
Traditionally, young males are the protectors of their society, not its predators. The old males are the decision makers, but the young provide the muscle and energy and face the dangers.
Democrats exalt the nanny state and life long dependency salted with perceived victimhood. They encourage reproduction outside of a stable two parent family. They discourage delayed gratification, self-responsibility, academic achievement to include proper language skills.
In fact, everything left wingers stand for seems to degrade and destroy rather than strengthen a society. Coincidence?
“Leftists continue to believe it’s all about throwing more money at the problem.”
There was a time when I thought this was the case, with the expected result being a fixed problem. I thought the strategy was misguided, not repression by design. Not so, the throwing of money was a bribe to keep the ghetto culture intact, thus maintaining the power structure. It created a dependency spanning generations, becoming a way to live. It was a bribe to surrender freedom and liberty for trinkets.
“Ghetto culture” is not based on race. It is based on a perverse system of economic wealth redistribution. It is designed to keep a substantial portion of the population, regardless of race, dependent on the nanny state, depriving them of knowledge regarding the means of escape along the way.
…”In fact, everything left wingers stand for seems to degrade and destroy rather than strengthen a society. Coincidence?”
Not a coincidence, though a lot of “left-wingers” don’t appear to have sufficient critical thinking skills to discern the reality of the scam.
Though tempting as it is to comment on each of the 4 paragraphs, they stand quite well on their own. Thumbs up.
But they don’t understand they were insulting people. What they thought they were doing is making sure the minions understood who was in charge and ratify their positions.
They now want to make it about race b/c to admit anything else would expose their authoritative agenda.
Well – for some historical context on this, most African societies are paternalistic as well, as are most Asian and Native American ones. Slavery in the US disrupted (intentionally) those west African norms to weaken the family structure and thereby weaken individuals to more easily subdue them. Unfortunately, post-slavery as black families were beginning to re-establish themselves as full family structures with fathers at the helm (although back in the day, most black families saw mothers and fathers as more equal financial partners than white families) and we began to see real and rapid gains in achievement for black children, white “liberals” funded desegregation efforts which (granted) seemed at the time to be the right progress for all of our civil liberties – and certainly were spearheaded by black intellectuals. This “progress” served to undermine black community structures and, therefore, black families which gave way to regression in achievement and then more white “liberal” funded welfare reform and “free housing” in urban ghettos – but only if there was no husband/father/man in the home. And, on and on we go. Actually, the only surprising thing (and maybe a testament to the actual resilience of black people) is that only a third of black families are in poverty given everything “liberals” – black and white – have done to try to destroy black families.
But, factually, blacks are no more inherently a maternal society than any other. (Not saying there’s anything also inherently wrong with being a maternal society if men are not sidelined). The state that you see many black children in now with nary a father in sight has been the result of hundreds of years of deliberate action – mostly by white Democrats of the past and white and black “liberals” today.
Really thoughtful comment, thanks.
Rundmc, thanx 4 that.
Correct you are, but the “Ultra-Orthodox-Leftist” Not us common
sense-Conservatives. You know who they are. The ones that deny science by denying biology.
And you want to talk about a scandal that the state of California is doing everything it can including moving the ones that have been raped from one prison to another to do everything they can to keep them quiet.
And that’s the women that have been raped by men saying this horse-shit.
“ I am woman hear me roar!! thank you Helen Reddy!! so I have to be with women, or I’ll likely to be raped by men!”
According to one whistle blower guard, One guy raped a woman just as soon as he was put in a cell with her after clearing “in-coming procedures.” And that prison did not bring him up on charges because they knew it would hit the media. So what did they do?
What do you think they did? they do what they’re good at. They lied their ass off and they covered it up by transferring both. Which lo and behold, the black rapist did it again once he cleared “in-coming
procedures!!”
There wouldn’t be a third time because this warden yanked him out and put him in with men. All according to the whistle-blower guard at the 1st prison that is close friends with the guards at the other prison which just happens to be right down the road from the first prison!!!!!
Jim said, “…language skills as a primary task of public education — because ghetto English is more stigmatizing and economically disabling than skin color or any other feature of self-presentation.”
Ouch! Truth hurts. Of course, a little missive regarding critical thinking would have been double damning. Maybe next post 🙂
But if you live in a vacuum of thought, relying upon your echo to permeate your belief to the point of religiosity, this is what you get.
This off-year vote validated the concept that how ever transitory the American psyche is, it will rise from time to time to remind those that live in a bubble that it can be popped.

This conversation reminds me of this article about “Why A.I. Is Always Racist”:
https://www.unz.com/jtaylor/why-artificial-intelligence-is-always-racist/
I’ve never been sure what educators mean when they use the words “critical thinking”. How do you teach logical reality based thinking, or anything to people without language skills? People who don’t learn language skills don’t thrive.
What I find, anecdotally, is that “white saviors” suffer an inability to overcome their deep-seated racism, and this truly bothers them. They are most often infected with the type of racism known as “soft bigotry of low expectations”, and again, this bothers them, greatly.
They try to overcome this dissonance by throwing themselves at the extreme, so as to arrest any confusion within, and any efface suspicions percolating in those witnessing. The great act.
I agree with your analysis.
Yes, the white saviors are modern day “benevolent” plantation masters with the conviction: “I’ll decide what’s best for you poor, slow colored folk.”
And of course the live wire is the proven fact that Blacks do have a much lower IQ than Whites. You can’t deal with it either, so join the pity party.
LOL! Speaking of dog whistles!
“Blaaaaaaaaaaccccccccccckkkkkkksssssss! Buuuuhhhhhhlaaaaaaccccckkkkkksssssss! Blaaaaaaaaaacccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkssssssss”
C’mon Jarek, c’mon boy… fetch it
I see you have your dunce cap on today. Remember, Whites don’t exist, but Jews do – Jared Diamond. You think he’s smarter than Hernstein and Murray or just Murry? Do you think you are? Really?
Hahahahahaha, so spot on.
And now with everyone running around with their faces covered since March 2020, a NY pediatric psychiatrist is now saying all the babies born from that time on have a 20 point drop in their IQs because they were deprived of seeing and interacting with so many different human expressions.
This had to have been known prior to the mask mandates.
We are dealing with some seriously evil human beings here folks.
Of course it was known. Back in slavery days they’d put masks on the slaves. It’s completely psychologically damaging as well as unhealthy.
Just like at the Met Ball earlier this year, the people who make the rules, don’t follow the rules but do enforce them. Their kids (and the nannies who care for them) won’t be wearing masks but YOURS damn well better be! Close the schools, mask ’em up, and now vaccinate all the way to preschoolers.
Evil and unfortunately, powerful too.
Now I ain’t tryin’ a disrespechew o’ nothin’, but
Man, Wass wrong witch yew??
You are indebted to me for being able to hear the Truth – perhaps more then you can ever repay.
I have learned a thing or two from you over the years…
It’s not just “White saviors” with the “soft bigotry of low expectations”. I’ve known successful intelligent blacks whom I admire and respect, express these thoughts to each other when they didn’t know I could hear them.
All hail Jarek. The prophet of our time’s. The only one who can hear the truth from on high. Who is such a paragon of truth and virtue that the light is shining out of every orifice in his body. That everything you think and say is correct, and everyone who disabuses you of your notions is evil. So I walk around in my sackcloth and think, maybe I should listen to this person of truth and virtue. Because I’m such a ignorant bastard and so full of malevolence. Maybe this prophet Jarek will drop one thing on me that won’t make my life miserable and doomed to hell. All hail Jarek the light bringer of hope for the unwashed. Lol.
LOL!
“and any efface suspicions percolating in those witnessing.”
Oops.
The plight of blacks in America is documented in “The Bell Curve” by Herrnstein and Murray 1994, 845 pages. They illustrate correlation and causation with unequal intellectual ability among races. Talk about an unpopular topic. Their book was damn near banned from public distribution. However, time has validated their conclusions and predictions for America’s future.
Yes, the average low IQ (either 80 or 85, depending on the source) of American blacks is the unacknowledged underlying cause of black inequality. (Up until 1973, an IQ of 80 or less was the baseline for being considered mentally retarded. Meaning that about half of American blacks are mentally retarded.) This doesn’t necessarily make them bad people. They can be quite good people. The main thing that pisses people off are CRT and demands by blacks for equality of outcome.
Then you have the Dunning-Kruger effect: stupid people are too stupid to know they’re stupid. The public school system encourages this through grade inflation, so that they think they’ve achieved mastery of reading, writing, and arithmetic, even if they are functionally illeterate and innumerate. People have achieved even a modest degree of mastery of these skills appear to them to be sinister-intelligent oppressors for trying to impose standards–which is something they should be angry about.
What’s really needed are jobs that offer dignity and security for people who have below-average intelligence–and for such people to get over the idea that society owes them a career as an accountant.
Wasn’t it or isn’t it 70? This is the average IQ of Black Africa. The 85 is because of the substantial increment of White genes into their population.
It does make them bad or at least undeveloped people. See the seminal (you can say ovular) work of Laurence Kohlberg, Loveinger, et al anent the positive correlation between IQ and moral development.
But yes, IQ is necessary but not sufficient. There are other factors. The mad scientist type is all too real.
Jarek: Umm – how do you know the average IQ of “Black Africa?” Where and when was that assessed? And, what do you consider to be the geography of “Black Africa?”
While on the topic, how do some of you on this thread know the average IQ of any race of people – whether on the African continent or the North American one? Because, there’s been very little actual RCT of this measure across races. (And, don’t quote me Charles Murray on this – his analysis was thrown out as invalid years ago).
I also wonder, as a matter of scientific and social analysis, why you are stuck on one measure (IQ) that is hotly debated in scientific circles as a valid measure of anything, let alone innate intelligence. It’s quite easy to take a measure that one (or a couple) races of people score higher on – on average (although we certainly don’t know the IQ scores generally of all Africans…) – and say – that is THE measure to use to determine ability. It would be akin to using measures of ability in 3 sports – football, basketball and soccer – and using that to determine the ability of white vs black people to succeed in society. Either way is equally invalid.
BTW – as an inveterate consumer of true crime books and tv shows, I can tell you that the average IQ or just plain ole common sense of many white people ain’t so high… even those who aren’t killers.
and for such people to get over the idea that society owes them a career as an accountant. – Anthea
===========
As a person who holds a college degree in Accounting, I have to laugh at the above line. It is hard to picture college-age Black youth as desiring “a career as an accountant.” Why? There is no glory in it. Who the hell wants to be a “bean counter?”
Even in football where Blacks shine you will not find one Black punter or long snapper. OK, maybe ONE. Why? Because there is no glory in it. They want to be running backs or receivers so they can score a TD and race up to the cameras to perform their well-practiced inane celebrations.
Haha, accountant, as if.
“Even in football where Blacks shine you will not find one Black punter or long snapper. OK, maybe ONE. Why? Because there is no glory in it. They want to be running backs or receivers so they can score a TD and race up to the cameras to perform their well-practiced inane celebrations.” — Q. Shtik
No. Blacks are disproportionately represented as running backs, receivers, and defensive backs because of their leg structure and fast twitch muscles. (Jimmy the Greek got fired in the 70s for saying similar — Wokeism isn’t a new infectious ideology.)
Not the case for punters or long-snappers, where Whites excel.
Ray Guy. Nothing more need be said.
@ Billy Hill – what about Fred Biletnikoff?
My ex husband had a black accountant to do the taxes on his business. This was a Bad Idea. The guy filed one extension after another till we were all out of extensions.
The jobs that used to provide people with economic security are gone, either outsourced or mechanized, but the population has increased.
A black friend of mine drove me to the airport (a long time ago) and we chatted for two hours.
He grew up in this town when it was segregated and he liked the school he attended. He told me that back then the old women would watch the streets and if a child misbehaved his parents would be told immediately and they would be taught to behave.
If a man beat his wife he would be visited by a group of elders from his church and told that he could not continue with that behavior.
Many things have changed since then, not just integration. The jobs are gone, the old folks are probably watching TV instead of the streets, parents today have no idea of proper behavior for children, and the elders of the church are pretty much all that still attend.
Screens ruined community.
Chopper,
You are correct about the book rating blacks as somewhat lower in IQ than whites. But that was not the reason the book was almost banned in this nation. The book then went on to say that the Chinese are several points higher, in IQ, than white people.
THAT was what caused such a reaction.
Prove it. Academia is controlled by Liberals who are very uncomfortable with the model minority – as the East Asians are called. They should be dumb like the Blacks but they ain’t. But the Blacks were and are their main focus. Their usual defense to throw the whole idea of IQ out the window at least at this late date.
Yes they did document the superior average intellectual ability of Asians, now outperforming Caucasians in our universities – a prediction made in their book. However, Asians and whites were not a protected class at that time. The furor came from the same type of whites JHK identifies as (aka Liberals) in this blog.
If that’s the case, why are we lowering the standards for blacks only. Does it hurt or help them? Can’t do simple math, can’t read or write, can’t be on time, all racist. My daughter wants to be a astrophysicist, and professor. She’s not capable of that because she has down’s syndrome. I think they should lower the standards because she would be the first female astrophysicist, and professor. Sounds stupid dosen’t it. Or, does it.
It is stupid in itself to defame the IQ of a race of people and far worse when it is also false and malicious. Time has not validated the ‘writings’ of those 2 idiot-savants in the slightest. Do you know how white woke people sound to us when we hear them talk and grunt on TV overseas? Get an ‘effin clue.
They have received much hate, but no has been able to disprove their work. They were hardly the only or the first either. It is the simple Truth.
White Supremacism? Hardly. The same research finds the East Asians and Ashkenazi are smarter than us.
Not so, my liege. Ashkenazim have higher verbal I.Q., as they have made themselves the finest storytellers in the world. Their 3-D visuospatial IQ is a bit below that of the Caucasian on average. They are not builders, but nomads.
East Asian IQ rates highly in visuospatial, yet lower in verbal, than Caucasian averages. They are molded by ideograms.
Even so, their social proclivities overcame, again and again, their engineers- until Europeans gifted them with our kind of knowledge, even that gleaned from and unused by them. The average Chinese lived in rice-paddy villages with a bicycle economy in the cities.
Addendum, my lord Jarek. The IQ crowd misses a most important point. Capacity does not determine function.
Language has two functions, not one.
Because we have two processors, not one, and the use of emotive language, versus neutral information language, depends on which processor is dominant.
The breeder hindbrain’s function is to organize our social groups.
The mechanical forebrain”s function is to model.
The tone of a society, of a demographic, is dtermined by said processors as well as capacity (IQ). Hot scheming mess stuck in place, or the grandchildren of even slaves and prisoners building high civilization in savage wilderness?
O.G. is a fine example of the two processors.
His high capacity and cool calculation succeeded in one environment, but was shattered by the different strategeries of breeder brained women and lawyers. The trauma of his shattered world has left him veering between the two processors in cognitive dissonance, torn between emotion and observation.
Well said, my good counselor. I didn’t want to give them too much – and a bit of humility doesn’t hurt us. But only when balanced with rightful Pride! It’s no accident Whites created as much as they did.
I lifted one corner, and you lifted another. Else I should remain silent as Confucius said. As one convert to Christianity said of his people and their attraction to Art, We entered this realm only to destroy it.
But they are good at math and the sciences. As are the Asians. One is non-visual but verbal, the other verbal but non-visual. Thoughts? Perhaps they excel at theory and the Asians at application?
Yes, our good OG has been tormented by the Witches, as have I. Confucius as well to wit: When I want them to talk, they remain silent. When I want silence, they won’t stop talking.
What did we fight about two weeks ago? I have an emotional memory but not the exact one?
A few days ago Al said to ease off the ‘sisters’.

Greetings,
I live along the Ohio river near two coal fired power plants that provide electricity to Pittsburgh and our local area. Normally, those plants are surrounded by literal mountains of coal but that isn’t true at the moment. I’ve noticed that the supplies of coal are dwindling and yesterday, as I was driving past the plants on my way to pick up a wood-burning stove, I notice that the coal was almost all gone.
You can not tell truck drivers, coal miners, barge captains, power plant workers, etc to mask up indefinitely and to inject themselves with poison and expect to have electricity. You especially can not do such things in Amish country where all of us can see with our own eyes that the Amish are doing just fine without masks, social distancing, and vaccines.
I’ve stated many times that I have doubts as to whether Brandon was gonna run things into the ground such that they’d be unable to keep the lights on and it looks like I was correct.
Get ready for a dark winter.
Thanks Nickel – local recon always provides invaluable truth.
All that coal is probably being shipped off for storage in an endless warehouse, like at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark…
The Lay-Off list state’s that the entire coal production for 2022 is already sold-out, going to both domestic and foreign buyers, strange they say it’s 15 dollars at the mine per ton, but locally it’s $305 a ton, so you can bet your ass green or not they aren’t going to let something as profitable as that go down the drain.
The area around me is the least jabbed in the country. Again, you can’t pretend the Amish do not exist because you see them every day and they NEVER wore masks even when they came into town to get something from the “English”.
There is a bridge near one of the power plants that connect W. Virginia to Ohio. There, the local hospital has a billboard that tells you the current “wait time” for the emergency room and emergency services. The billboard was put up at the start of the pandemic and remained up for about a year. Funny thing was, the wait time never exceeded 5 minutes except one time on a busy weekend when the wait time jumped up to 15 minutes.
My thinking is that someone in marketing actually believed the hype about the plandemic and thought that as wait times soared, they’d be able to scare the public into coming into the hospital that much quicker.
Coming from California where the wait time in an ER can be 14 hours or longer, I thought their silly stunt hysterical but it was a constant reminder to everyone that the virus was and is a hoax.
If you now demand vaccine passports then Cleveland, Akron and Pittsburgh will soon be without electricity. That is a fact.
The problem over and over is that the anti FF folks, especially coal,
HAVE NO FEASIBLE ALTERNATIVES!!
Until a legitimate alternative is presented, no change, coal and oil will still be mined and drilled at increasing rates, because there is no choice.
Europe and their wind farms were a big propaganda tool for the AGW crowd for a short while. It is now an embarrassment.
Same with the Covid fixit groups, they do not have a clue how to fixit.
One comment on Covid.
Right now, the scourge seems to have leveled off. It is becoming the flu or a cold. New antivirals are being tested now that may attack this virus before it has a chance to propagate much in situ. This makes it so you can push back on the crud after it hits. This needs to be tested!! mRNA is too dangerous for certain age groups and needs to be relegated to emergency use only.
When the trucks stop, it’s over!

“Same with the Covid fixit groups, they do not have a clue how to fixit.”
Like the crazy ex whose only obsession is to “get back at ’em”, not thinking if it will destroy his or her life as well.
For a few weeks or months during late summer, propane was unobtanium. My daughter was trying to get her tank filled for winter, and there simply was no propane. The propane companies told her that domestic propane supplies were being sold to overseas markets, so that there was none for the domestic market.
She was finally able to get her tank filled, and pay in advance in case she needed a winter re-fill, but the price was high.
What Jo Jo Magoo’s handlers want is chaos. They want the real world consequences for their increasingly insane actions.
I am not sure why this isn’t clear to people. They aren’t incompetent, they really want to destroy this country so they can rebuild it within their new transhumanistic confines.
I don’t think they will succeed, but how much damage can they do in the meantime?
I also think sheer chaos is one of their main goals.
However, I also think they are kidding themselves about being able to rebuild.
For many people, places, systems, and infrastructure, the descent into chaos will be a one-way trip.
No one is going to work 100 or 120 hour weeks to implement the WEF’s lunatic medico-techno-tyranny.
The few, well-paid that do will simply become targets for the roving gangs.
Remember PT Barnum
There is a sucker born every minute.
A good description of the 48% of the American public that buys Biden et al’s BS.
But do they? Or are they just pretending they do because they can’t get past Orange Man Bad?
Watch Mary, today we will find if the damn Liberals can push through the biggest inflation causer in history.
Just watched JoJo say that incomes are going up faster than inflation.
That is 1970s inflation talk, the he said that 17 Nobel economists agree with him that we are on the correct track. Boy does that make me feel comforted. Why don’t we just let the academia, totally worthless people dictate the direction of the country.
Yes Mary, it looks like Venezuela is their shining guidepost. Impoverish the people and destroy the middle class; thru scarcity the few can control the many.
Print money like mad, hyper-inflate the currency, destroy supply chains, create empty store shelves. Next comes gun confiscation while the gangs are allowed to terrorize the people.
These Globalists are not incompetent. Their plans for us are unfolding on schedule.
I agree completely. It’s going to get pretty nasty soon.
I once read many of the ordinary people were happy when the barbarians destroyed the Roman Empire and its Elite. Now I understand why.
Yes! History makes much more sense when you see the same situations unfolding again.
I was just discussing this with my daughter. I haven’t seen huge inflation in the cost of food. Since I normally don’t buy anything but food, clothes from the thrift store, and supplies needed for a little hobby retirement business, I haven’t felt inflations that much–except at the gas station. Since I am in the process of moving, I’ve been buying a few home furnishings, but since I never bought stuff like this before, I don’t know if it’s gone up or not.
But my daughter ticked off a list of items that have roughly doubled in price: heating fuel, housing, construction materials, construction labor, car parts, and medical care. She is the resident car mechanic, and she and her husband just finished rehabing a 100-year-old farmhouse. Health insurance is costing them a fortune, even though they get almost all their medical care from practitioners who are not covered by their insurance, and when they can use it, the deductable is some insane amount that they never reach.
She told me that she is frightened.
I’ve thought some about how to escape from this tightening noose and, frankly, the only solution I see is to choose a lifestyle along Amish lines in a like-minded community. As my daughter put it, the “English” way of life sucks all the blood out of you. And you know what? They’re prosperous and I’m not.
Health insurance got nuts since the late 90s. In 2005 I cancelled mine, since it was taking 1/3 of my income.
Then they put in Obama, who mandated health insurance, (a foreshadowing of this year’s vaccine mandates).
I still refused to get it until 2013 when my husband got a job that had cheaper insurance.
During those 9 years, I had pneumonia and an ankle injury, and my husband broke his ankle and all of that was far cheaper than the insurance.
But people who didn’t want to pay a penalty for not being able to afford insurance, so they voted for Trump?
Racist.
I heard a quote on a Peterson site by a preacher named Vanderclay,” if you don’t think the resurrection is believable, start hanging out with people that do and see what you think in a group.” Or something like that. It makes sense to scale life to fit the situation one is living with.
Take climate believers, I lived in Alaska for 6 winters after being in Maui for 6 years and the weather doesn’t “suit your clothes”
No matter where you are.
God makes the weather what one has (according to native Alaskans) is poor clothing options. God gave us a brain to use, but some folks don’t recognize that idea.
This life style of modernization is quite dependent of heat of some kind and refrigeration. The big equalizers.
Like James points out in WMBH and his other great books, it ain’t gonna be fun but we can do this. Adapt and get along.
That’s my rant
I am beginning to suspect that the wokesters actually want to provoke the deplorables into some type of reaction that can be labelled as ‘terrorist’ activity. Then they can double down on the mandates. I have no other explanation for their behaviour.
Absolutely. They just love their Hegelian dialectic. (Shorthand: engineering the preferred response to an engineered crisis.) Their single all-purpose tool.
Speaking of this here is Tucker Carlson’s documentary in three parts on 1/6:
https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/tuckers-documentary-on-the-january-6th-so-called-insurrection-all-3-parts/
Thanks, I was looking for this.
I have been convinced for several months now that this is precisely their strategy.
Now that they have been shellacked in recent elections the Wokester panic will escalate and their desperation to provoke a bona fide “insurrection” will rapidly intensify. The clock is ticking and they know it. Newt Gingrich believes the Dems could lose anywhere from 40 to 70 seats in the House in a November of 2022. I suspect he knows what he is talking about. Newt also predicts a gain of about 4 seats in the Senate. So, by January of 2023 the window of opportunity to declare martial law and sic the Wokester military on us will have closed. They have 14 months to try to seize power and overthrow constitutional government. This is now the period of maximum peril for Patriots.
But make no mistake…..they are now on the defensive and in retreat. The elections last week were the Pickett’s Charge of the Wokester Revolution. These subversives remain dangerous, but are now in retreat.
I disagree on the competence angle.
Biden himself is a classic example. Even prior to the state he’s in now where a full Depends marks the high point of his day, Biden was a plagiarizing, gaffe-plagued moron who ran a 40-year grift doing the only “job” he probably was qualified for: the self-referential theater of the US Senate. In that nonsensical context, there are some who at least have attempted to author consequential legislation (whatever that may mean) but Biden doesn’t even meet that low standard. He’s a cipher.
And that cipher is surrounded by every cast-off from the Island of Misfit Toys: the ridiculous she-male admiral, a Secretary of Transportation whose area of expertise is probably in the field of personal lubricants, every race-grievance junkie and gender-fluidity addict, all focussed on their own pathologies to the virtual exclusion of everything else. It’s actually a perfect storm of incompetence.
The idea that there is always some mastermind in charge is not well-supported by the historical record. Hunter Thompson’s words, spoken not in the context of politics, but still imo relevant, come to mind:
“What Leary took down with him was the central illusion of a whole life-style that he helped create… a generation of permanent cripples, failed seekers, who never understood the essential old-mystic fallacy of the Acid Culture: the desperate assumption that somebody… or at least some force – is tending the light at the end of the tunnel.”
Those you refer to are just puppets though, being used for the theater that distracts the masses. Behind it is an intelligence apparatus that is well-oiled and knows exactly what it’s doing, and has been planning all of this for decades.
But even so, people make mistakes, miss things, and there are no doubt warring factions within the massive apparatus, so those create opportunities for us to fight back.
We just have to be aware and watchful for the cracks in the facade.
I don’t see it.
The “intelligence apparatus” has historically been way more Keystone Cops than Tom Clancy.
Occam’s Razor. The much more likely explanation is that no one is really in charge or maybe a better way of putting it:
Biden is president of a country that no longer exists.
King – I am going to steal your line – “Biden is president of a country that no longer exists” Thanks!
Good stuff, King. The take on Leary Generation is apt, their failure to account for evil (just basic human selfishness) doomed the flower children but still informs many who push for carbon limits for US but give China and India a pass.
The observation about Biden presiding over a nonexistent nation is almost an epiphany.
Absolutely right.
“I don’t see it”
LOL.
Jesus help us. Sometimes I think the psychos really did get it right when planning the Great Reset.
If you heard RFK, Jr’s coverage of the Fauxi mob today you might change your mind. Big Pharma, WHO, NIH, CDC, etc. are a well-oiled machine that have been screwing us for decades.
From Hofstadter’s The Paranoid Style In American Politics:
“Here is Senator McCarthy, speaking in June 1951 about the parlous situation of the United States:
How can we account for our present situation unless we believe that men high in this government are concerting to deliver us to disaster? This must be the product of a great conspiracy on a scale so immense as to dwarf any previous such venture in the history of man. A conspiracy of infamy so black that, which it is finally exposed, its principals shall be forever deserving of the maledictions of all honest men. . . . What can be made of this unbroken series of decisions and acts contributing to the strategy of defeat? They cannot be attributed to incompetence. . . . The laws of probability would dictate that part of . . . [the] decisions would serve the country’s interest.
Now turn back fifty years to a manifesto signed in 1895 by a number of leaders of the Populist party:
As early as 1865–66 a conspiracy was entered into between the gold gamblers of Europe and America. . . . For nearly thirty years these conspirators have kept the people quarreling over less important matters while they have pursued with unrelenting zeal their one central purpose. . . . Every device of treachery, every resource of statecraft, and every artifice known to the secret cabals of the international gold ring are being used to deal a blow to the prosperity of the people and the financial and commercial independence of the country.
Next, a Texas newspaper article of 1855:
. . . It is a notorious fact that the Monarchs of Europe and the Pope of Rome are at this very moment plotting our destruction and threatening the extinction of our political, civil, and religious institutions. We have the best reasons for believing that corruption has found its way into our Executive Chamber, and that our Executive head is tainted with the infectious venom of Catholicism. . . . The Pope has recently sent his ambassador of state to this country on a secret commission, the effect of which is an extraordinary boldness of the Catholic church throughout the United States. . . . These minions of the Pope are boldly insulting our Senators; reprimanding our Statesmen; propagating the adulterous union of Church and State; abusing with foul calumny all governments but Catholic, and spewing out the bitterest execrations on all Protestantism. The Catholics in the United States receive from abroad more than $200,000 annually for the propagation of their creed. Add to this the vast revenues collected here. . . .”
Sounds remarkably familiar…
I don’t doubt there is intent on the part of those in power, not just now but all throughout history, but intent and what can actually be pulled off are not quite the same thing.
King, with all due respect,
The facade of separate countries is coming to an end.
Republican & Democrat = 2 heads of the same hydra.
It’s all for show. The show has been going on for decades, and people still fall for it.
When a republican wins, what changes? When a democrat wins, what changes? Nothing. We still move toward the same trajectory – the Great Reset.
It’s been in the works for decades. They have made sure to distract us really well so we don’t see it, but those that knew about it 30-40-50 years ago have been warning us and they have been proven correct.
Hofstadter lays out several examples spaced a half a century apart with the same exact idea: a cabal conspiring to bring the country down or reorient the world. There are many other examples, not just in this country, of the “unknown superiors” meme. These to me are a close cousin of the end of the world meme promulgated by numerous cults throughout history and it always comes down to this simple (and curiously effective) sales pitch: while every other prediction may have been wrong, this time it’s for real. The “Great Reset” strikes me as yet another in an ongoing series.
On top of that, the notion of a global entity running the world goes entirely counter to the central theme of this blog: that large organizations are on borrowed time, anomalies as they are created by cheap and plentiful energy supplies that are no longer cheap or plentiful. Small and local will be the theme of the 21st century and that century will much more likely feature the horse and buggy than the flying car.
As far as population goes, 7 billion souls and counting are not a long-term option on the planet. A cursory study of evolution and population biology demonstrates that populations in nature are regulated by three things: disease, food supply, and predation. The first two will largely determine where exactly the human head-count winds up as this century progresses but it most assuredly will be considerably lower. And while it’s pretty clear that this pandemic is the result of assholes playing god, nature itself is quite adept at throwing up population killers at fairly regular intervals.
I just think we’ll have to agree to disagree on this one. Two different world-views.
John Kerry allegedly told the World Economic Forum last year that Bumblefuck Biden is on board with their plan to remake the world in their fascist image, including the a”Build Back Better”slogan and hyping shots and government control over everything. Klaus Schwab and Co. apparently like what they heard — and so it was that China Joe ended up in the White House (or a set in Delaware designed to look like the White House). And he, Kerry, and others pledged this week to achieve the WEF’s goals via the Federal regulatory state, regardless what We the People want, say, or vote.
I certainly don’t envy them their eventual appearance before YHWH to explain their actions. We’re all sinners, but to go out of your way to fuck over humanity when you know what you’re doing is evil according to your religion is stupid and begs for eternal punishment. But considering we’ve been told by lefties for decades that there’s no such thing as objective truth (unless it serves their purposes, of course), it makes sense that these dolts would buy their own bullshit, plunging the world into chaos and unspeakable horror, and setting themselves up for damnation.
Again, all because people disliked “mean” tweets by one of the few actual adults in American government. Thanks a lot.
It’s a religion. The true believers are operating on faith.
Ya know, as a deeply religious atheist, I see now the benefit of the concept underlying ‘grace’.
I tend to take a darker view of recent events and concur with a summary (copied below) provided by Mike Yeadon, the former head of Pfizer respiratory division. The masters of the universe are implementing their plans for global control and are well on the way to succeeding.
see https://www.australiannationalreview.com/health/mike-yeadon-ex-pfizer-scientist-sent-this-out-on-thursday-we-are-approaching-stage-5/
Yeadon says we are entering Phase 5 of their plan:
Phase 1: Simulate a threat and create fear. (December 2019-March 2020)
Mount a plandemic
– Kill tens of thousands of elderly people.
– Increase the number of cases and deaths
– Position vaccination as the only solution from the beginning.
– Focus all attention on Covid-19.
Result, (almost) general panic
Phase 2: Sow the tares and division. (March 2020-December 2020)
– Impose multiple unnecessary, liberticidal and unconstitutional coercive measures.
– Paralyze trade and the economy.
– Observe the submission of a majority and the resistance of a rebellious minority.
– Stigmatize the rebels and create a horizontal division.
– Censoring dissident leaders.
– Punish disobedience.
– Generalize PCR tests.
– Create confusion between cases, infected, sick, hospitalized and dead.
– Disqualify all effective treatments.
– Hope for a rescue vaccine.
Result, (almost) general panic.
Phase 3: Bring a treacherous and deadly solution. (December 2020-June 2021)
– Offer a free vaccine for everyone.
– Promise protection and return to normality.
– Establish a herd immunization target.
– Simulate a partial recovery of the economy.
– Hide statistics of side effects and deaths from injections.
– Passing off the side effects of the injections as “natural” effects of the virus and the disease.
– Recover the notion of a variant as a natural mutation of the virus.
– Justify the maintenance of coercive measures by not applying the herd immunity threshold.
– Punish health professionals for the illegal exercise of care and healing.
Result, doubts and feelings of betrayal among the vaxx, discouragement among opponents.
Phase 4: Install Apartheid and the QR code. (June 2021-October 2021)
– Voluntarily plan for shortages.
– Impose the vaccination pass (QR code) to reward the vaccinated, punish the resistant.
– Create an Apartheid of the privileged against the others.
– Take away the right to work or study from non-vaxx.
– Withdraw basic services to the non-vaxx.
– Impose PCR payment tests on non-vaxx.
Result, First stage of digital control, impoverishment of opponents
Phase 5: Establish chaos and Martial law. (November 2021-March 2022)
– Exploit the shortage of goods and food.
– Cause the paralysis of the real economy and the closure of factories and shops.
– Let unemployment explode.
– Apply a third dose to the vaxx (boosters).
– Take up the murder of the living old men.
– Impose compulsory vaccination for all.
– Amplify the myth of variants, the efficacy of the vaccine and the immunity of the herd.
– Demonize the anti-vaxx and hold them responsible for the dead.
– Arrest opposition leaders.
– Impose digital identity on everyone (QR code): Birth certificate, identity document, passport, driving license, health insurance card …
– Establish martial law to defeat the opposition.
Result, Second stage of digital control. Imprisonment or removal of opponents.
Phase 6: Cancel the debts and dematerialize the money. (March 2022-September 2022)
– Trigger the economic, financial and stock market collapse, the bankruptcy of the banks.
– To rescue the losses of the banks in the accounts of their clients.
– Activate the «Great Reset».
– De-materialize money.
– Cancel debts and loans.
– Impose the digital portfolio. (Digital Wallet)
– Seize properties and land.
– Ban all global medicines.
– Confirm the obligation to vaccinate semi-annually or annually.
– Impose food rationing and a diet based on the Codex Alimentarius.
– Extend the measures to emerging countries.
Result, Third stage of digital control. Extension of the N.O.M. to the whole planet.
I don’t entirely disagree with your contentions.
However, I think the supply chain issues and the failure of green energy to maintain sufficient electrical supply are going to put some serious crimps in their plan to digitize and electrify everything.
Agreed.
The material world is *not* data & the difference will impose itself in many more ways, also.frankly, I’m not sure how the material world can be successfully reengineered without intimate knowledge of what exists. This the planners are missing, or they wouldn’t approach living humans like inert matter..
Excellent points.
It is true that our Woke overlords don’t seem to realize our human resources are also declining in quality and quantity.
This is unsurprising to any intelligent observer since our schools and universities are nothing more than Woke indoctrination camps.
The global, cradle-to-grave surveillance and control grid the overlords desire would require far more technical talent than we’ve got now, or will have in five years.
I expect this will also put a crimp in their plans.
Perimetr,on the phase 5 idea of digital i.d.’s,the leftwing of T.P.T.B. currently don’t advocate i.d.’s for the Lives That Matter Most and illegal immigrants when it comes to voting rights.I can concur with the general outline of this though looks like a10 to 20 year project.
This is exactly what has and is being done.
Well, I respect Yeadon, but if that’s their plan, it’s already failing. There are whole swathes of the world that are not playing: Russia, China, India, most of Africa, and many smaller nations like Sweden, Denmark, Rumania, etc. Their overweening arrogance and our resistance will stop them. It will be nasty, messy and disturbingly kinetic, but we will win.
True. But if they pull down communications (at least for the Western countries that are participating), then as far as most citizens in those countries (including us) will know is that Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia are perpetually at war with each other, to borrow from Blair.
And we will only know what we are being told. Kind of hard to get to Russia or Romania to get the real news at the point.
We DO have a chance but it is slim, and it relies on our resilience, because they are not giving up.
So we have to assume we’re in this war (that is truly what it is) for the long haul.
Yep. And still the legacy conservatives call it incompetence. It’s 100% deliberate.
What a pernicious agenda the populace is being served. Catharsis is certainly in order.
@AKlein Agree with the need for catharsis – the longer we wait, the more traumatic it will be.
Good morning.
There has been talk that the vaccine mandate will not be shot down in the courts, because it is actually a “testing and masking mandate”.
If that were so, and it is not, it would still have to meet the same tests any other OSHA regulation has to meet, to make it legal.
The Market Ticker guy has listed those tests:
https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=244137
That’s not to say some judge somewhere won’t ignore all this.
Isn’t there a deadline for them to withdraw the PCR process by the end of the year?
Will they simply remove the testing option or come out with something even worse?
Excellent point TCL.
At the moment I’ll go with “come out with something even worse”.
Some people thing the new Gates test will contain the vaccine.
“Think”.
The way Bill Gates chortles while talking about his vaccines sterilizing people should be a big clue as to the agenda.
I would imagine they will roll on without the testing, and just push vaccine mandates harder.
Anyone presenting one or more symptoms (cough, headache, nausea, aches, fever, etc) will be publicly assumed to have covid, unless vaccinated…and subsequently quarantined.
If vaccinated, it’s just a bit of a cold, carry on.
If unvaccinated, away with thee, and no pay until after your 14-day home isolation.
Bonus points if they can achieve this via a self-policing workforce populace.
Just spitballing, but that’s what I’d do if I was a tyrannical crank.
Are you channeling your inner Justin Castreau?
Try and keep up, TCL. Gates and Soros recently bought a testing company. Expect, positive test results of 290% from Jan 1st and more calls for total lockdowns.
Remember the bias of the judicial as represented by their boss.
Beware MTG’s site. Good observations, yet void of retort – by design.
This host is honest, humble and provides more smiles than frowns.
Caveat emptor.
I thought you meant Marjorie Taylor Greene.
I will not hear a word against her.
I don’t see reading the Market Ticker site or someone else’s as an either/or situation.
B of O. You are more than welcome to read any site you like.
Just don’t be surprised to find that some of those sites present less then solid evidence for their claims. Simply linking to them without due regard should be avoided.
You said, per Congresscritter MTG: “I will not hear a word against her.” You proved my point.
No I did not. I have READ much of what Marjorie puts out there, and have formed a favorable opinion of the woman.
That was my attempt at a humorous response, but I can see you don’t deserve humor, nor do you deserve any credit for coming here in a serious attempt to have reasoned discussion of the issues.
You either haven’t read the article I linked to or you have read it and are trying to keep it from the wider audience it deserves.
You failed. The Market Ticker guy must be gaining traction, as he’s picked up a minder.
@ Beryl of Oyl:
Tickerforum.org is GREAT site. I’ve been following the guy since roughly 2005. Karl is a GREAT educator. Besides objective facts and excellent analysis, the site is good for shapening your analytic skills. A lot of people literally don’t know HOW to think rationally. Long exposure to rational thinking is medicinal for such folk.
Karl is, let us say, “temperamental,” and I personally think he could use a good editor. But some of this supposed “temperament” is probably stone-cold policy. A large contingent of readers of such sites go there for the endocrine high. You could call them “anger junkies.” Giving them their fix will keep them coming back for more.
The above is also a good reason to talk about your genitals a lot. The ambiance is one of…(cough, cough)…”male energy.” It sells.
Yep. Many of the conservative sites are either neck deep into Armageddonesque doom or Polyannish Q nonsense. They also have their Narrative to follow.
Beryl: not sure it matters any more. The sheep will obey and the freedom lovers will ignore it.
Morning Jim – excellent as always. Thanks.
Also, nice to see Durham working his way up the food chain.
I’m wondering; if the Clintons (mainly Hillary) find themselves about to go under the wheels of the bus, will she then release the mountains of dirt she has on the Obama camp?
They had some sort of Mutually Assured Destruction detente thing going on, but it looks to me as if he may have broken that agreement.
How much of that will we be able to see?
Another complete inversion of the truth – “Russian” interference by HRC and the DNC – exact opposite of the 5 years of allegations against DJT. Unfucking believable.
I still remember Scott Pelley of CBS ruining television coverage of the Trump inaugural with his constant jabber about Russia Russia Russia.
He knew how to investigate, but propaganda paid better.
Scott Pelley – what a pompous, lying scum bucket. I hope he gets dragged out to face justice.
Trump was destroyed by the media, he was buried by a pile of woke progressive BS that from which no one seemed to want to defend him. In ALL cases, he tried to defend himself, he was condemned from all directions. The Liberal scourge EVERYWHERE descended on him all the way up to a unanimous denial by the judiciary on election corruption. The biggest thing I got out of 2020 is how totally the power structure of this country is controlled by the Liberals, both the Dems and the RINOs. Virginia showed a slight crack in the dam, but the Liberals are still totally in control of this country.
His critics tend to ignore the degree to which he was hamstrung and lied to and undermined by his own party.
You are right! His enemy from the time he announced was the national Deep State, both parties. The voters beat them back in 2016, but Trump was outnumbered and out powered by the DS scum.
Thanks for the clear explanation of the root cause of the black condition in America Jim. When will it ever improve?
OSHA yesterday issued the official rule that vaccines are required of everyone who works for an employer with over 100 employees. You can test weekly though to avoid the vaccine. However, if you do that, you are required to wear a mask all day long. That makes no sense. If you don’t have covid and the the others are vaccinated so they don’t have covid then why wear a mask all day every day?
To continue and enforce the submission ritual.
The Ottoman Sultan made men wear a fez. In my opinion more stylist than those face diapers that fog up my glasses.
And the Manchus made the Chinese wear their hair in a “Q” or pigtail.
If a Chinaman working in America wanted to return to China, alive or in a casket, he had to have the pigtail intact. Hence when such a person cut his hair; it was a dramatic statement of intent to stay in America.
In my plant, everyone gets to wear a face diaper, regardless of jab status.
Ain’t equality grand?
I hope you quit or call in sick with a lot of other colleagues to teach your bosses a lesson.
I am the key person on a major overseas project with a lot of specific, irreplaceable knowledge and experience.
I predict progress on that project is going to be hurting in a few months.
Ah! This is a matter for very great baksheesh.
Bill
Please do not try to make sense out of politicians making the rules on anything.
If you go to OSHA website and drill down
“DOL and OSHA, as well as other federal agencies, are working diligently to encourage COVID-19 vaccinations. OSHA does not wish to have any appearance of discouraging workers from receiving COVID-19 vaccination, and also does not wish to disincentivize employers’ vaccination efforts. As a result, OSHA will not enforce 29 CFR 1904’s recording requirements to require any employers to record worker side effects from COVID-19 vaccination at least through May 2022. We will reevaluate the agency’s position at that time to determine the best course of action moving forward.”
https://www.osha.gov/coronavirus/faqs
Yes, I saw that earlier. I’m sure they will reevaluate their position, but they already ‘know’ the best way forward. Get the jab! I feel the insanity watching this from abroad. Not sure when I will be back to the states to see family. I have a 2 year old grand-daughter I’ve never held yet. But there is no way I would go back to the US right. I am afraid I would somehow get stuck there.
Me, too. I am probably on a list somewhere.
Also, if you have any non-American family members who have not injected the MRNA swill, you can’t get in anyways.
OSHA has the “option” of which laws to enforce? Where do they get that from? The last I looked, the executive branch must enforce the laws passed by the legislative branch. Do we the people have the option of which laws we will follow? Of course not. This is a good time to write to our congressmen.
Bill – please save the time in writing your congressman.
Send me $100, and I’ll take the time to do it for you. If he/she replies in earnest and straightens it out, I’ll send the $100 back to you.
Problem solved and it cost you nothing.
Send your letter Bill–e-mail and snail mail, return receipt.
It can’t hurt.
They will give you a courteous non-answer. But it they are flooded with similar correspondence, who knows, it might help.
It can’t hurt.
If you’re identified as a subversive, worst case, you will just get in trouble sooner. Worst case, if we do not submit, we will be in trouble in this world.
“to record worker SIDE EFFECTS”
…not “status”…!!!
Not s t a t u s
Speaking of cohorts of African-Americans, I can remember a time when we were told that if you didn’t pay attention and work hard in school, you might end up as a ditch digger.
White boys as well as black boys heard this same message. That’s what vocational training was for, prevention of ditch digging being one’s only occupational path.
Illegal immigration even interfered with this last resort, they took all the ditch digging jobs.
Then there was the massive legal, chain immigration.
Now immigrants were competing head to head with Americans for the relatively unskilled. low wage work.
Meanwhile, those who were told work hard, stay in school. etc. found their high school degree increasingly worthless.
Then those that did educate themselves to their fullest capacity were finding that employers were hiring foreigners over American.
Many jobs went overseas.
People who did everything ‘right’ were facing economic challenges they never expected to face, and the MSM and even our elected leaders were telling them it was their own fault.
Illegal immigration also interfered with part-time jobs in retail and food service that were originally a conduit to introduce young people to the working world and for a smaller number of older, retired folks to earn extra income.
War on Drugs, think of all the employers who demanded drug testing for even the most loser-ish work.
Nobody tests illegals.
BTW, something I’ve wondered about for some time- at about the same time decent-paying jobs were drying up, crack was actually advertised on the evening news as the hot new drug.
Seriously. It was talked about in the national media before it was even a thing locally.
The failure to test illegals is a planned feature, not a bug.
This is because the plan is to degrade and destroy the middle class lifestyle of US citizens to a level resembling that of the illegals.
There is no intent to raise up the illegals, ever.
Surprise. Guess what is in the big spending bill.
Naturalization for the illegals, buried deep, here it comes!!
When Obama talked about Americans being made “competitive” with the rest of the world, that is exactly what he was talking about.
Side note cuz it’s a pet peeve:
Drug testing, especially since it allows 100x the amount of hard drugs (300 nanograms) versus dangerously dangerous danger marijuana (3 nanograms), allowed chain-smoking, alcoholic, gambling addict, high-function psychopath and HW Bush crony, Republican Bill Bennett to cut off 40% of insurance payments of hospital claims.
Lack of payment- thanks for the premiums, workers, but now you have test first- bankrupted enough local and regional not-for-profit hospitals and clinics that HCA Columbia could buy them for pennies to create the world’s largest corporate hospital chain.
Before, we had doctors practicing medicine.
Now, we have corporate treatment.
Addendum: and, along with putting his co-conspirator in this scheme in jail (for Medicare fraud, HA!), Billy B also earned seven figures as the Drug Czar of two government agencies, ONDCP and PFADFA.
He and Pappy, both Company mafiosi, had seized control of the drug trade that they had organized and expanded- both the licit and illicit sides of the profit stream.
*****
(Pappy, Naval Intelligence, and Ollie North created the systemic cocaine Cartel in Columbia and Peru, and funded various paramilitaries such as the Hondurans butchering Guatemalen villages or the Tri-borders region corner of Paraguay-Uruguay-Brazil.
Pappy got rid of his transit cop, Noriega, so that he and his old oil pal from the Texas Railroad Commision days, Presidente Salinas, could move the money laundering to the banks of Mexico City.
In this period, Pappy also resurrected the mujahidden to wrest control of the Afghan opium- the alll important global source of essential painkillers- from Russia’s control of the pipeline. Islam was almost entirely dead, a relic, until Pappy gifted us with jihad.
An interesting side note is the complementary rise of the concrete mafias in So.Am- just as State Sec. Hillary used French consortium concrete plants to employ ISIS fighters in the off season during her Arab Spring. She was repeating the Balkan Spring strategy she and Wesley Clark used, reinforcing Albanian KLA gangsters with Afghan mujahid to grab the heroin, oil, and uranium pipelines to the EU.
Drug turf wars. Foreign operations are resource and route wars conducted by Intelligence Companies, a replay of the 400-year spice and drug trade wars conducted by the naval Crown Companies such as the East India Companies, aka privateers. Said Companies were owned, as ever, by the banking Families that made war loans to the crowns.)
Forgive, please, the long note. I could go on for a long time about our world gangster system, and got a bit carried away.
Further addendum: Oil spies of the Great Game. The Gilded Age Great Game was built on the backbone of the naval Pirate Age.
Ain’t yer grandaddy’s capitalism. Never was.
Noted thnx
We can never be honest about race. To do so would trigger civil war. Standing next to the ladder of opportunity for fifty years and not reaching the first step is all you need to know.
Only 13% of this country is Black today, same as 1964.
Hmmm, I wonder why Blacks have not increased their %.
Take a long look at the abortion industry.
Leanna Wen certainly made beaucoup bucks in that industry.
I wish she’d crawl back into the pit she was dug up from already.

Yup! It is in the nature of the Black community.
The cities!
That is not their nature.
That is the environment.
The environment created for them by the true racist party, the Despocrats.
Public housing
Welfare
Limited public transportation
Harsh enforcement. harsh penalties
Victim status
The destruction of the african-american nuclear family.
A new culture was forged from this recipe for disaster.

That’s my experience, Avatar.
I don’t think CRT helps though.
@ Mary
No, CRT serves multiple other purposes.
One of the primary purposes is to prepare white middle-class for their diminishment in class (socioeconomic) strata.
The reset requires a great reduction in the middle-class lifestyle, particularly expectations of what constitutes a middle-class lifestyle.
Once white people assimilate, the false narrative, that they are being denied access or ability or a lifestyle on account of who they are, but, at least for the assumed benefit of the historically repressed, the less likely they are to reject it.
Meanwhile, the elites will continue to enjoy a high QOL within the future framework/reality of severely limited resources/luxuries (limited for thee, not for me).
In other words, white middle class will be meeting blacks on a diminishment in lifestyle expectations, rather than blacks gaining.
The 1% way of life is not negotiable.
When a plane crashed in Lagos, Nigeria – the Police, Fire, and EMT’s has to fight their way thru a huge mob that was looting the plane and the bodies.
Black crime is higher everywhere Blacks live, including their own nations. It’s who and what they are.

I disagree. YOU create your environment. You can do this in the midst a degraded larger community. You can do it on the flimsiest of material underpinnings.

Look at the Jews.
One can make ones home a place of order and comfort, learning and culture, a place with “no raised voices, no tread of violence.” One can be well principled and religious anywhere.
Laying the blame on others is horseshit.

“YOU create your environment. You can do this in the midst a degraded larger community” — Anthea
Indeed.
And what about the coming years and decades? Poverty and squalor will be a universal. Blacks think they’ve had it, or have it, tough? Imagine the chimp-outs in 2028.
But there are blacks who do plainly see what the problem is but are given no airtime. It’s only nutters like Joy Reid (who was forgiven for making rude comments about gays) who have their face in front of a camera. And who champion extreme measure like this for anyone who makes an unguarded observation:
“Poor Sandy Sellers. The adjunct professor of mediation and negotiation at Georgetown University Law Center found herself in a jam that even she wasn’t able to negotiate her way out of.
Momentarily forgetting that she’s a white person in 2021 America, Sellers told the truth. Specifically, she told the truth about the poor academic performance of her black students.
She might as well have waved a Confederate flag while attending an antebellum-themed cotillion.
“You know what? I hate to say this, I end up having this angst every semester, that a lot of my lower ones are blacks,” Sellers said in a Zoom chat with her Georgetown colleague Professor David Batson. “It happens almost every semester, and it’s like, oh, come on. You know, we get some really good ones, but there are also usually some of them that are just plain at the bottom. It drives me crazy.”
Well, you can’t do that anymore. Where did she think she was, Nazi Germany?
When news of the Zoom call got out, Sellers was immediately terminated. In a series of press releases (because one is not nearly enough to address this genocidal atrocity), the university condemned her words as “reprehensible,” “hurtful,” “harmful,” and “racist.”
Not “wrong,” though. For some odd reason the university didn’t say the statements were wrong. Or inaccurate. Or any other synonym for wrong.
The “law school” also suspended Professor Batson indefinitely for the crime of hearing the statements. Yes, it’s now a fireable offense to merely hear someone speak the truth about black academic performance. The university failed to say whether it thinks Batson should’ve stabbed his eardrums after hearing Sellers’ remarks, or whether he should’ve socked the webcam Popeye-style hoping the punch would travel through the ether and knock the racist vermin out cold.
The Georgetown Black Law Students Association called on the university to retroactively change the grades of all of Sellers’ previous black students, declaring that “These racist statements reveal not only Sellers’ beliefs about Black students in her classes, but also how her racist thoughts have translated to racist actions. Professor Sellers’ bias has impacted the grades of Black students in her classes historically, in her own words.”
You can’t make this stuff up.
Any business that wants to hire is going to be misled by fraudulent academic performance decrees, SW. Perhaps that is part of the plan.
@ rainmaker:
No business is going to be “misled” about any black candidate for any job. If you hire a black person, you are…hiring a black person, invariably under compulsion.
Just another brief pastiche in Jim Snow America.
Winsome Sear challenged Joy Reid to have her on her show:
“I wish Joy Reid would invite me on her show,” Sears said on “The Story” Wednesday after hearing Reid’s remarks. “Let’s see if she’s woman enough to do that. I’d go in a heartbeat.”

I love it when they get hoisted by their own petard.
Have you met “blacks” who had no need of the ladder, or have found it?
They are just like you. They put their pants on one leg at a time.
They care about their children, their education, their neighborhood, their community. They have career aspirations.
Isn’t that shocking?
They can still manage to do that, to be just like you, even knowing, as you do, that they are instantly judged, instantly assigned a heap of presumptions.
I wonder too, how they even got this far.
Avatar
What do you mean by “assigned a heap of presumptions”?
Do you mean a presumption that they rose due to affirmative action rather than their own genuine merit – objectively measured?
And who has been pushing affirmative action? The left-wingers.
Hence, the left wingers are creating this malaise among black people.
Now, go beat your face!
That is precisely what I wrote in other posts on this thread.
Those are not the primary presumptions being heaped on.
Now go eat another ****
Sorry if I misread you, Avatar. Now I’ll eat my **** covered in #### sauce.
It was a “foot” but **** lends itself to… presumptions;-)
LOL!
I am seeing a movement, not an official one, but it’s there. Black dads show up in force, when they can, to their children’s schools and related events.
They know what the country thinks of them, and they are determined to fight that stereotype.
BTW nobody ever talks about how the part-time, temp work economy affects parental involvement in their children’s education. If you don’t know from one week or less to the next, what hours you will have to work, it is hard to schedule that parent-teacher conference.
Good, I hope those black fathers come in talking loud and angry with nostrils flairing. Leftist teachers are cowardly, weak creme puffs when confronted forcefully.
No that isn’t shocking and as far as being “instantly judged, instantly assigned a heap of presumptions” — that’s a knife that cuts both ways. I’ve worked with black nurses whose respect I had to gain just as they had to gain mine. That’s a level playing field (or the start of one) that MLK recognized decades ago. Who you are as a person trumps every other criteria.
And that’s why a man like George Floyd is (to me) reprehensible. He preyed on his own community, fathered children he never supported and participated in a drug culture that has wreaked havoc on his race.
Ha! More advertising copy. You folks have been at it for a hundred years, back when you founded the NAACP for them.

Fantastic offering today, James. Thanks for the overview of CRT and why it is ridiculous tripe. I’m guessing the back-lash from it will set race relations back rather than move them forward. But that was always its purpose, cleverly hidden as it is.
At the college I just left, the obsession with CRT was just hitting its nadir when I chose to exit. If people really understood what a cult this is, they would want it out of these institutions immediately. Well, rational people.
One professor who headed the academic senate would appear on all zoom meetings with a huge Black Lives Matter background and others wore BLM t-shirts or hats. These were mostly white professors. There were crying jags by whites who “finally understand” their privilege and oaths to be subservient to blacks going forward. Rituals galore! At one indoctrination session, the black woman running it told us flatly that we should have more black people in our inner circles, not at school but in general. So yeah they want to control our lives outside of our job as well as on the job.
This b.s. was enough to scare me out of working in education ever again. But now that I am job searching, I see that most businesses have picked up the lingo and the bullshit and have ‘statements’ on their websites promising their dedication to inclusion, etc. I’m guessing for most it’s just some box they have to now check in order to be free from attack by the WJPs. Still, not a good sign.
I am glad that Virginia gave a strong message to schools who peddle this and the trans agenda bullshit.
Enterprising blacks could have started a gig economy as Rent-A-Friends.
They will attempt to coerce who you associate with via the social credit scoring system they plan to install.
Not enough diversity in your associations for a given week?
Watch your interest rates skyrocket, credit lines fall, and CBDC allotment slowly bleed away….
And Equity Specialists in colleges, hugely in demand, as are the crappy books they churn out.
Modern American Blacks would do it in a heartbeat and feel self righteous enough to demand a tip as well.
You cannot underestimate the inborn pride that has been weaponized into utter shamelessness.
MQ,
Regarding the kneeling business, there is a sign at one of ouir country crossroads informing the public that they can come and kneel every sunday at 10 a.m. Not, like, in prayer to God—does anyone even do that anymore?—but I suppose in order to be publicly credited with feeling guilty.
Maybe I should go there one Sunday and see what is actually going on.
OMG. That sounds insane. Maybe go there and sell cat-o-nine tails to the gullible whites who like to whip themselves for their privilege.
Anyone remember #MeToo? Where the woman is to be believed? Well, that was thrown overboard when the attempted smear was the same as the defense for no less a predator than Harvey Weinstein — they had sex before so it couldn’t be rape.
“Putting some blame on the girl and suggesting that transgenderism isn’t really part of what happened is Goldberg’s way of reframing the story to minimize the quotient of left-wing politics that has come into sharp focus for many Virginia voters. The trouble is that the school authorities and the school board plainly did act on left-wing dogma when they sought to hide what happened and then lied about their cover-up. Behind their actions was their determination to protect and advance the idea that “transgenderism” is a positive option for the students in their charge.”
The fact is just b/c a person has on a dress and make-up doesn’t make him a female. People have been bullied into silence from stating this obvious fact and it took the rape of two teenage girls to finally expose it as folly.
Hey, as long as his poker appendage is intact, s(he) is a threat.
Hey, where were all these parents when the Dems were promoting the bathroom changes two years ago?
I think they were all hiding in their living rooms, quaking in fear if they made a peep against the policy they’d be stigmatized as transphobic.
They still are promoting it.
It’s not going away that easily.
The Tranny Freak Show had its run; now it’s time to pull down the curtain.
In fact, the Left is doubling down: some of the base didn’t vote for us because we failed to get our legislation passed.
Nobody is buying this woke stuff anymore. It doesn’t solve any problem. Where is the solution? It’s a dead-end.
If your trying to sell something its has to have some value. I really believe most folks don’t care about any of this stupid stuff. We just put up with it. Not anymore. At least where I reside. We don’t participate in any bs. We cut out friends, family members and casual gatherings because of this stupid stuff. I’m personally think it s the silver lining to this whole hoax.
The traffic is light, eating better and less of it. Less comfort all for the better. Less is more for me at this point.
We’ll see what happens when they come for the SS. Oh you know thats on the table with these shitbags. Once you take everything from a man, he has nothing to lose that he’s not going to lose anyway. Game on!!!
Anyone remember Psycho?
Norman Bates dressing up as Mama Bates didn’t make him his mom!
But it did make him scary.
That movie has been denounced as “transphobic”, as has Silence of the Lambs.
Imagine having horror movies about batshit crazy men who dress up as women! That’s offensive.
“That movie has been denounced as “transphobic””
Jesus, seriously?
Would love to see who did the denouncing, and in what terms.
But . . . but . . . surely Perkins being gay gives any of his characters a get-out-of-jail-free card
What’s next? #MeToo adopts Scarlett O’Hara?
And Jodie Foster rejected the role of Clarice Starling because she ends up with the superman, Hannibal Lecter – just as Consuela ends up with the mutant superman, Zed, choosing him over her lesbian lover.
She felt the author who created the character of Clarice, “betrayed” Clarice, lol.

Hahahaha! I didn’t know that. That is just hilarious.
A study shows a possibility that getting the vaccine may be harmful:
“It is of particular note that A1c did not return to baseline over 90 days post jab. In fact, it remained elevated with some formerly-healthy people now being in the “pre-diabetic” category. This cannot be understated in terms of what it means: Diabetes is arguably the most-serious morbid condition you can contract. To take a person with a healthy A1c level and turn them into a pre-diabetic by telling them to take the jab is criminally insane.”
http://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=244131
This is by no means proof. It’s just that we are supposed to get answers to these kinds of questions before we vaccinate people.
Not with the liberal politicians in control of DC.
Snake oil in a tin shotglass.
Using an anecdotal report of symptomatic reports unassociated with the pathway for these vaccines/therapeutics is inane. MTG is good, but please do not repost him unless you have actually read past his claims.

Islander, Pranah, JCP,
intolerance for dissent is indeed a very bad sign in any intellectual discussion. A monolithic bloc of commenters is groupthink, conformity, safety in numbers. The opposite of a garden of ideas.
I’ve adjusted my views on some things when others were able to present a better case.
Rulo:
Leave me out.
Thanks.
I am not intolerant of actual viewpoints.
Only of bad manners and hoity-toity attitude.
Islander, on the contrary, I know for a fact you’re not intolerant of dissent and think for yourself.
I thought all 3 I mentioned were making the point that they supported the right to think differently, despite different approaches or ideas.
Maybe I misread or misunderstood.
Thanks, Rulo. I agree with Islander, above.
Hello from The Commonwealth of Virginia. I was yacking at the gym today with a bright and articulate friend who opined as to “how Terry McAwful actually got 44% of the vote”…? We all view it as a major step in the right direction but a long road to hoe. On another note-Brandon, I mean Biden is just soldiering on, like the Terminator. Whatever the disaster de Jour presents itself, he seems unaffected. F-up here, F-up there….No impact. Hey, let’s vaccinate 5 year olds (and his cabal know what is really going on). There is the weirdest sense that the whole thing is contrived to destroy the USA or what lingers of it’s past. They have destroyed health by high fructose and glyphosate laden processed calories. Testosterone and sperm production as has collapsed as has Vit D levels in blood. Collectively, with immune function even more compromised w vaxes, it’s going to be a noxious winter. An ICU nurse told me she treated a 32 year old for a heart attack and that their ICU is already slammed, younger variety than usual.
A billionaire named George Soros said his life goal was to destroy the United States of America.
We are witnessing the culmination of many years of planning with one intentional foul purpose.
And America lets him live on their territory. How many millions of people are waiting for this guy to pop his clogs?
In fact, Soros and the Clintons are neighbors.
He has been training his son for many years to replace him. And behind them are the Rothschilds and the rest of the International Bankers and Globalist cabal.
We fought the people who were taking them on, remember?
Western Australia has full hospitals, and they don’t have covid.

The friend of the family who got vaccinated and then was hospitalized with the coof, mentioned beds lining the corridors, but I assumed it was because of NY’s nutty governor and her evil edicts causing low staffing levels.
People who got vaccinated are getting the shingles. If I know two such people personally, that’s a lot.
Hmmm.
Only so many WBCs available and we keep favoring the memory cells for Covid. Do the others lessen in number causing uprises in things they no longer protect us from?
I do not think the PTB know about this.
Oops!?!
I know 1 with shingles, young.
About that “gain-of-function” thing: Readers might be interested that the NIH recently removed that terminology from their website so they can no longer be accused of doing GOF. That’s a neat trick; just call it something else and the issue goes away.

My state, America’s most-vaxxed, set yet another daily case record yesterday, and we’re not even into deep winter yet. The number of unvaccinated people here continues to drop. The number of vaccinated continues to increase. The cases and fatalities also continue to increase. An obvious question: Should increasing cases and deaths be blamed on the group that is shrinking in size, or on the group that is growing? The answer should be obvious, but tell that to the public health “experts.”
The CDC changed the definition of vaccine just for the death jab to be passed off as a vaccine.
They knew it didn’t meet the definition, so they changed it.
We don’t need the CDC or the NIH.
They are a waste of money at best.
jeff,
they keep moving the goalposts. Changing the language. Newspeak in its initial stages.
I have little doubt the unjabbed will be the designated scapegoats. We see some of it already.
Yes Rulo, and now that boostahs are available, not long until the CDC changes the definition of “fully vaccinated”.
The trap for the vaxxed to get boostahs ad nauseum.
The current double-dosers will now be considered “unvaccinated”, until they get the boostah.
Hope the Fall planting is in, and things are good on the farm.
Cheers, Ron. I owe you a message – pretty hectic around here with winter setting in fast – will write in detail soon & we can keep plotting some good times soon.
Looking forward to it Rulo. You’ll definitely have four distinct seasons on the NFL Farm. Have some extra Ivermectin for you also. Talk soon.
I am of the belief this last ditch effort is to destroy the “control group” in their experiment. The Non-V are the non randomized control & placebo arm of a massive Phase 3 trial. Look at how the sports media is singling out Aaron Rogers, not the fact that dozens of vaxed athletes get CV 19 every week.
You nailed it. They want to eliminate the control group, just like they did in preliminary trials.
Unfortunately, we don’t eliminate easily.
You got that right. There are millions of people who have not gotten and don’t intend to get the clot shot.
“liberal deconstruction of American family life, unwillingness to prescribe behavioral norms, and self-sabotaging cultural choices such as the failure to promote the teaching of language skills as a primary task of public education”
Yep.
And an unwillingness to condemn criminals within their community. I understand that tribes of all races or religions close ranks if they perceive outside threats, but the black community has taken it further with the glorification of black crime. Long before George Floyd, rap lyrics was in-your-face aggression. The real victims are the helpless people trapped in the ghetto.
“Victims are the helpless people trapped in the ghetto” – keep infantilizing American Blacks as helpless victims – THAT’S the way to lift them up.
Some people are trapped there b/c of financial restraints just like there are people living in crappy trailer parks in Texas b/c they can’t scrape together first and last month’s rent, deposit for utilities and all the rest. It’s not infantilizing anyone to point out financial realities.
The small town I live close to is primarily white, 30% Mexican and maybe 2% black. But there’s a lot of poverty and no good jobs to help people escape these trailer parks. It’s nothing to do with race.
Most Blacks support BLM or anything else that will get them gibbs. That’s how it is and how it’s gonna be.
Making exceptions and excuses will keep it all going. People who think they get it tend to be part of the problem.
Great article. I wait and look twice a week for these insights. I’d just like to add that two things happened seemingly by design. One was removing the factories from inner cities. That collapsed family income. And second is the ‘rumour’ (cough) that a certain ‘agency’ (I don’t think it was the Boy Scouts) flooded certain neighbourhoods with a certain substance in the 80s. Unemployed depressed dad maybe did some self-medicating and things got way out of hand.
That’s why I voted for Trump. He talked about bringing the manufacturing back.
The trajectory for black Americans was straight up until the jobs started disappearing.
Get it?
The Dems do not want an independent Black population! They will continue keeping them down as much as possible.
Someone should tell that factoid to Nicky Minaj.
“the ‘rumour’ (cough) that a certain ‘agency’ (I don’t think it was the Boy Scouts) flooded certain neighbourhoods with a certain substance in the 80s.”
Lizard,
Do you know the difference between an excuse and a reason?
Hooray for the election and the people!
But……
Public education is one thing….
Bear in mind, a great majority of those now in the teaching force have been “educated” in crazy woke schools of “higher education”….
SO….
What about higher education….mosly an uber-woke mess?
Interested in your thoughts Jim. Everyone?
Get the government money out of Higher Ed, for starters.
And the corporate sponsorship
Higher education is a disaster. If I had a college-aged child right now, I would find a way around a traditional college education. They are indoctrination centers where students learn nothing but how to be a useless wokie.
And I just quit a college job so I know. I was in administration, and saw how the sausage is made.
There ARE alternatives, and they are cheaper, too. In the end, most employers don’t care where the degree came from, just that you have one.
There are cheap and even free college education options online.
Good points, Mary. And I think the word is out because college enrollment is flat across the country. Here in Ct I know of at least 1 college and 1 university that are wobbly and could fold any day.
My son dropped out of college in his first semester. I thought he was doomed, but he recently got his third tech job. All three of the companies hired by merit, not education.
My brother-in-law, a long time IBM employee, said that more companies are doing that. IBM hires H1B employees, but companies that really need intelligent and talented people go for the brains instead of the degree.
In my son’s second job, he worked with a dude that had two degrees and $100,000 of student debt. They did the same job and made the same salary, but my son had no student debt to pay. Then they promoted my son and gave him a raise and his friend was stuck with the same pay.
That whole college dropout thing worked out well, as it turns out.
Paula, spot on. Back when I still had “jobs” that I had to be “hired” for, nobody hiring took more than a glance at my education or degrees.
“This is an average example of what you will have to do at this job. Do it. The clock is ticking. Good luck.”
Have you read Mumford anent the creation of “time” as per the clock? Mechanical time in other words, not Black Elk’s “I will see you again when the grass is this high.”?
It is utter Tyranny. The reduction of human beings to servants of the Machine. Forget Mumford, watch Metropolis or Charlie Chaplin.
And we can never be as good machines as the machines themselves are…..
This was my experience for myself as well, but then I hit a wall, and so went back to finish college recently. I wish I hadn’t, in a lot of ways.
I’m glad that worked out well for your son.
Thank you, Mary. So far so good. But it’s a long way to become a surgeon. Fingers crossed. I know he’s in it for the right reasons, not for $ and status. To help others.
One of my uncles was a country doctor. A comfortable middle class life, but he’d have been shocked to see those MD’s now, their luxury cars and golf memberships. He would be called in the middle of the night, get in the car, go help a poor farmer, take payment in chickens or corn when no cash was available. An example.
If my son gets there, that would be glory. If he doesn’t make it, I know he’ll still be something useful. His plan B is in the trades, not in useless indoctrination studies.
Great story, Paula. May the whole college system fall into a black hole! My 4 kids are all intelligent, but none of them have any desire to go through the college propaganda system. They’ll make it without it.
Mary, true that. 90% of degrees are worthless, a waste of time and $, or worse, an indoctrination camp.
“The actual reasons for why this is so are taboo, namely, liberal deconstruction of American family life, unwillingness to prescribe behavioral norms, and self-sabotaging cultural choices such as the failure to promote the teaching of language skills as a primary task of public education — because ghetto English is more stigmatizing and economically disabling than skin color or any other feature of self-presentation, unless you are a professional comedian. ”
All true of course. However, let’s not forget the elephant in the room: average IQ. Just as the average IQ for whites is below the average IQ for Asians and Ashkenazi Jews, the average IQ for blacks is not only significantly below these groups, it also lower than Hispanics. This need not mean a lifetime of economic failure and welfare dependency, but it is a handicap in a technological society where advanced skills lead to higher incomes. Human beings are not equal in ability. Rewards and life outcomes should reflect this. Those who contribute most (according to unfettered markets) should be rewarded most. Everyone benefits when the most competent are allowed to attain positions of responsibility. This does not preclude compassion and charity to the poor. However, it should be voluntary.
I have seen far too many very educated and higher IQ people doing INCREDIBLY stupid things throughout this entire scamdemic, not to realize (if I didn’t know already) that the whole concept of IQ needs serious reconsideration.
Dr. Death there, Fauci, is going to score high on such a test. Just look at his record, and listen to the claptrap that comes out of his mouth.
I find it refreshing to talk with people who don’t think they are smart at all.
Beryl, you may be confusing “intelligent” and “intellectual”. One is clever; the other is stupid.
I learned a long time ago IQ and intelligence didn’t always “intersect” in the same person. Too many people have high IQs but no judgment or the ability to see anything from another perspective. A friend’s husband is a brilliant engineer but worshiped Obama and honestly thought b/c he was so smart all his ideas had to be beyond question. He has MSNBC on all day and believes every word.
Yep. And people strong in STEM areas typically make very poor political choices, as they tend to see everything in black/white terms.
Now why is knowing the truth about Black IQ important? Because WE will be blamed for their failures or lack of percentile of the graduating classes if it is NOT known.
Law School, Med School, Engineering programs, the Sciences, etc
Dr. Fauci has successfully acquired a high standard of living or himself and his family. He may not be adhering to your behavioral norms because those norms aren’t prescribed by the culture he operates in but he knows how to acquire affluence within his culture.
@ Beryl of Oyl:
The way it works from a practical standpoint is that the high IQ person has the POTENTIAL to become a thinker, a problem-solver, and a person of culture and refinement. The low-IQ person does not.
A high IQ person can fail to fulfill that potential because they are kept in ignorance or are miseducated. They can also choose to be intellectually dishonest, or even criminal. If the latter, I suppose it follows that they would be very good at.
A low-IQ person can be a good person. They just have no intellectual potential to fulfill.
One thing that seems to be true of many blacks–at least in my very limited experience–is that they seem to have a talent for certain types of “artisan” work. In soap making (which is what I do), you see many very talented blacks. I suspect they could produce high-quality work in a number of other crafts, such as pottery, woodworking, or textiles. I don’t know how many would have the business skills they’d need to make a go of it. I mean, you’re gonna need an Excel spreadsheet and be able to figure out how much you owe in taxes, and be able to reconcile your checking account and understand the credit cycle on your credit card. I would guess that less than half of blacks can do this stuff.
Wow! This is one article you won’t see reprinted in the Washington Post, NYTs, Atlantic Monthly, or the New Yorker; altho, I think Jim was kicked out of that CLUB a long time ago.
Oh, and on cable news, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC and so on, the word of the week is ‘Dog Whistle’. Dems lost because Youngkin and other GOP candidates blew the racist Dogwhistle.
Also, I learned just last night that the new Lt. Governor of Va., a black woman who owns a plumbing supply shop, is a racist, White Supremacist, and a misogynist lol.
Hey BRH………….

“. Now they are ramping up an urgent campaign to vaccinate children following rushed and falsified clinical trials, with the statistical certainty that many more kids will be injured or will die from the vax than they would from Covid-19 itself.”

The “approved” vaccine?

If nobody has seen this, I wouldn’t be surprised. Only a damning article about haphazard vaccine testing published in a respected medical journal, so of course mainstream media ignores it: https://www.bmj.com/content/375/bmj.n2635
That is because Pfizer throws unbelievable amounts of money at Main Stream Propaganda.
Particularly the Boomer/X nostalgia programs: Today, GMA, 60 Minutes, etc.
Almost every program has a news “segment” brought to you by Pfizer.

“Weather report brought to you by…”
LOL, what percentage of America is hooked to that boob-tube?
A conduit of programming right into your home. And they do not even see it. Right before their glazed-over eyes.
Most of it, I’d imagine.
TV fought back against the internet by becoming a sexy, glowing, 85″, 4K Hi-Def flatscreen with menus and apps, just like a smartphone…one you can make the centerpiece of your McMansion and the wreckage of your nuclear family life!
They don’t call it the “Boob Tube” for nothing.
The tubes are now gone but the boobs are silicon bigger than ever.
It’s unbelievable to me that people continue to watch TV. While I can see a family in 1955 sitting down after dinner to watch Gunsmoke, or maybe the modern teen having a couple of favorite shows, everyone would be better off to put the damn thing out by the dumpster.
I have the impression from some old books that most family evenings were spent doing small chores like mending or cracking nuts, or in some cases, shelling beans. (My real-life reports from older people are that they hated that.) In educated and more leisured households, one or more family members might read aloud to entertain the others. In Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Collins annoyed the Bennet family by selecting Fordyce’s Sermons, but there are also accounts of this practice in The Good Life. Or, as a very old song, Caller O’u, as recorded by Jean Redpath, describes a winter evening:
“At necht ’round the ingle
Sae canty are we
The oyster lass brings our treat frae the sea.
With music and song, the hours pass us by,
And we hear in the distance the creel lassie’s cry.”
For a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6TzqP2yDEY
My daughter and her husband gave up TV for Lent one year, and evenings were spent taking walks or riding their bicycles, or playing board games and drinking hot chocolate.
TV has robbeed family life of so much.
I like to watch M*A*S*H reruns. The Medicare scammers and drug pushers are virtually the only advertisers in the program’s slots.
Rainmaker: how can you stand Alan Alda. The archetypal smug liberal t*urd.
Ditto
Alan Alda is not Hawkeye Pierce!
They also have a revolving door at the FDA between Pfizer board positions and FDA leadership.
RFK, Jr. pointed that out in his Fauxi mob takedown today at the Corono Auschuss. I am tempted to buy his book. The stuff he was laying out was amazing.
Who’da thought we’d be relying on a Kennedy for a bit of honesty and selfless patriotism? Times we live in!
Well, JFK also give us some pretty dire warnings.

Great video. You cannot beat reading or hearing their own words.
Jim has once again hit the nail on the head. Well meaning guilty white women gave black kids a pass on proper English, thereby achieving the opposite effect of assimilation into white society. Those guilt wracked white liberals from the sixties on are the culprits. Unfortunately, only a sexual predator, Bill Cosby , was brave enough to chastise his fellow black citizens about things like this and the absent black father syndrome.
Are they well meaning?
Assuaging one’s guilt of their true feelings?
That is their primary motivation.
And where’s the gratitude, the appreciation? Has a black bar tender so much as named a drink after Bill Cosby?
It would have to have Benadryl in it.
LOL!

I have to commend James for not lapsing into profanity or digitally frothing at the mouth when itemizing these crimes. If it were up to me, I’d hang every last one of the perps–and have a quite a lot of them drawn and quartered.
Actually, he could be frothing and we wouldn’t know it.
The lumber for the gallows would be cheap at any price.
JHK said: “Now, I’m going to tell you succinctly what is behind Critical Race Theory, and it’s going to hurt: After sixty-odd years of civil rights policy and legislation, a sizable cohort of African-Americans are not making it in this society.”
This is the crux of the problem and until we are able to discuss the reasons in a rational manner, it will not be solved.
Why are they not making it?
Liberal policies designed to fracture the nuclear family, lowered expectations of acceptable behavior and educational progress are the primary suspects.
Libs have been killing the black community for decades with policies they THINK are helping. Blacks are beginning to see the facts but someone in the black community needs to lead them out of the wilderness of progressive ideology.
“… it will not be solved.”
Hardrock,
Where, in current history, has it been otherwise?
‘Cept Wakanda, of course….
Before 1960, blacks in the US, were not allowed to assimilate into the then current culture…after 1960, they refused to be assimilated.
A person of limited gifts but with a strong sense of victimization, is difficult to talk to.
Yes, the gifts of “acceptable” public welfare:
-public education
-land grant U
-military, GI Bill
-civil servant job/leo job
Yes, the gift of whiteness is severely limited, but undoubtedly needed.
How else to get limited whites ahead in America?
How else to get limited whites ahead in America?
Whites are held back by affirmative action. Whites to the back of the line.
“How else to get limited whites ahead”
100,
Who’s to say that they are “getting ahead”?
Your examples were enjoyed by blacks as well as whites. I expect you know the difference between an excuse and a reason? Most victims have a mouth full of excuses…and a lifestyle that provided the reasons.
It’s just that I find it funny and all, the irony, of a bunch of rather ordinary white people, who have not accomplished much, beyond being spectacularly average and only by way of spectacular help of public welfare, lament over the inability of blacks to reach a level of confidence the allows one to take such foolish pride from that perch.
The elite is not a white’s club, not by any stretch.
Now many white people have a false sense of entry on account of their skin suit.
But I hasten to remind the lowbred whites that many much more intelligent people previously assessed your trajectories. And not liking them, and not liking what the crash landings would bring them, they took proactive measures. Namely, the ones aforementioned.
Many of these were denied to blacks, as of late.
You’re not special. You have not accomplished anything someone did not make for you.
don’t forget it.
The Avatar of Hate takes off his mask and suit to reveal an Antifa uniform.
A little too close to home?
I get it.
Nothing makes average people feel worse than showing them how much closer they are to those they despise than those they admire.
“You’re not special. You have not accomplished anything someone did not make for you.
don’t forget it.
100,
Well, fair enough, but could you provide an example of an endeavor that you might consider “an accomplishment” that would be what…self-generated…and without help?
If we are all provided similar benefits, assuming even that they are means tested…then no one has accomplished anything.
I think the higher ups know CRT harms the black community, but their minions (the academics) are bamboozled/indoctrinated, and think it helps them.
Interesting combo. The academics are being used to create other little zealots… and so it goes.
I think the higher ups don’t care whether CRT harms their community. They have to keep the minions (aka teachers, bureaucrats, and other expendables) stirred up and holding placards to justify keeping their spots at the top.
Whatever brings the $$$ in…
Or why buy cow when milk is free? Worked for men, works for race.
Right on target, JH! I think it’s disgusting to use race in such a perverted way to gain power and political advantage through intimidation. I hope the Dems will be remembered appropriately for their absurd and destructive behaviour regarding CRT. As for the “clot shot”, may the offending parties that perpetrated these crimes against humanity be appropriately dealt with, and soon! Thanks! Keep ’em coming,JH!
If we boil it down to its base elements:
the Despocrat party is primarily a bunch of old white elitists.
the Despocrat party desperately needs to build a plantation of black voters.
So what did they farm: fringe issues, deeply emotional ones:
Race! Hate! Race! Hate!
And don’t forget Trump’s “Platinum Plan” for Blacks. He was trying to become the Republican Lyndon Johnson. And his White base? He never mentioned them. Never, but once or twice strategically as in, Sharpton hates Whites and cops.
Here is a dog that hasn’t barked: where, oh where is that most cherished of alt-left Person of Color – the one who couldn’t vote because they couldn’t get an ID? Such a person would be feted by the media and alt-left celebrities for a full year. Statues of them would be erected in town squares throughout Blue USA. Where, oh where is that ID-less person?
“MY GRANDFATHER’S SON” by Judge Clarence Thomas … a good schoolbook for all pupils and a counterpoise to CRT.
Live now, Corona Auschuss, RFK Jr. exposing a lot of unbelievable stuff!! WOW.

JFK, Jr. is exposing the entire Tony Fauxi mafia, with him as the boss. NIH is a mafia. He is explaining how Tony Fauxi funds Stanford to the tune of 1/2 a billion $$ a year & tell them what they can or can’t do studies on.
This is just mind-blowing.
The mass-delusion on the extremes, the left and the right is very disconcerting.
JHK: “— if the USA can make it there without cracking up”
We are living through a mass-psychosis event.
100%, 100. Though I think I fall into your craaaaaazy right column
Mass-psychosis is easily thwarted.
Through knowledge.
Not through belief. Through knowledge.
And not any old knowledge. Through tacit knowledge.
The real stuff.
But many people cannot reach it, or never got it, never worked for it, never experienced it, or having experienced it, never let it in.
Because one first needs to know oneself.
Have that reckoning.
The desire, the will to want more, other, be more, be other, blame, fault, is followed to its source.
You.
When you find yourself, and do not like him or her, well… you need an extreme palliative.
Extreme diversion form the discomfort.

“Now, I’m going to tell you succinctly… The actual reasons…”
Quite simply, the lack of equality across the spectrum of all individuals of any species of organism, a near-must for the sustainability of an industrialized society of creatures, lies with the disparity between genetically driven, emotionally motivated behaviors and cognitive, intellectually motivated behaviors.
The specific behaviors, as you are observing here, are but symptoms, not causal agents.
I could be wrong.

Our local paper reported that although African Americans make up 48% of the student body, they receive 74% of the discipline and suspensions.
Why? Because………racism.
When my kids were in those schools I had to drive to their schools to pick them up because the school buses were full of rowdy, violent children and the drivers ignored their behavior. One principal rode the bus a couple of days to try to maintain some sort of order, but she gave up.
So I drove to their schools and waited for them to come out. I could plainly see which students where coming out pushing and fighting and which students only wanted to get out of the mess safely.
But, instead of demanding that parents teach their children proper behavior, the teachers are being told to quit trying. I don’t know about the tests anymore. During the No Child Left Behind days, the paper used to publish the results, divided by race. Oops! More racism, even though the schools are integrated and the kids get the same education and the teachers, principals and school board are also integrated.
Violent incidents in public High Schools in Ct is off the charts (in Hartford, Middletown and New Britain) to the extent that local TV news cannot ignore it. At NBHS, a police officer detained a non student in the building; he was attacked by 3 students and the trespasser, and badly beaten. In Hartford, teachers are quitting in droves. Added to that chaos are dozens of bus drivers being fired for refusing the vaccinations and I don’t see how they can keep these systems going as they have been much longer.
and the immigrants keep showing up. The violence is not from white students.
Indeed. The schools are struggling as they have to add ESL classes and supply other special needs as more and more dysfunctional children are added, at the same time that property owners are struggling with their taxes.
This is nuts.
As the Comedian said, Where’s the American Dream? This is it. You got it.
Similarly, you people won. This is Marxism. Don’t blame anyone but yourself that you dreamed poorly.

There I was, struggling against the entire ruling class, demanding that they shut down industry and open the borders. What were the odds that I would prevail, when their interests were in no way involved?
Yay me! I am Woman, hear me roar.
I said you people won, dummy. And that you got your dream. Now you don ‘t like it? Of course not: Communism is a nightmare. If you like it, you’re a monster. It’s good if you’re unhappy – that means you’re not a monster. Unfortunately, you’re gonna keep going with the plan.
@Paula D, right on.
Little ol’ you.
Meanwhile, I’m solely responsible for the feminization of men (not the drugs in the water and those people I oppose pushing SJW bullshit).
Little ol’ me!
Because that’s what you wanted!!!!! You personally wanted feminine men (whatever that means).
“whatever that means”? Are you sure she’s an ally, Mary?
Paula: She can’t stand the idea of men getting feminine privileges. It’s not she loves men – quite the contrary. The idea of such disgusting work animals getting human status enrages her.
A pox on both your houses.

Hey tough guy, most attempts to shut people up don’t come about by screaming “Shut The Fuck Up!”
They come about by piggybacking pleas, snipes, above-it-all calls for “reason” and consideration, and calls to the host to “please do something!”
As to the so-called call for this being an issue of destroying or hindering “intelligent discourse”, what you really mean is that you only want discourse that you agree with.

The Curse of Jeff Edmonds
Grade 5. 1976. I got 100% on the Math test. My best friend, Jeff, spotted an error that had slipped through the cracks during marking and he literally ran my marked test to Mr Sewell to have it literally downgraded to 98%.
I have always come up short of perfection ever since.
Wilbur hang around you’re the only guy here besides me who gets the Dixie Gunworks catalogue.
As far as I know.
One thing I wanted to mention is Dixie (and other retailers) show a pretty nice selection of BP firearms, but when you try to place an order, it is invariably “out of stock”. ‘Traditions’ HQ is close by so I paid them a visit; it was a warehouse setup and they wouldn’t let me in the door because of Covid restrictions, and turned away a paying customer.
@ O.G.:
Why are you even thinking about Mary? You don’t know her. You know nothing about her. Like you and me, she is a digital phantom here.
For all you know, Mary and I could be the twin princesses of Lower Slobovia, or we could be living in a group home.
Furthermore, about half the people in this country are on anti-psychotic meds of some kind. The other half are undiagnosed. They all go blah-blah-blah. You might as well take offense at the sound of the wind blowing.
“The very same, unfortunately, could be said for one’s bitchin’ about the bitchin’.
Leave the bitching about the bitching out of it!
~toktomi~”
Yes indeed.
While being a devout atheist, I’ve always recognized that certain biblical passages serve as excellent metaphors for current events.
The concept of an elite squad of thinkers pretending to be feckless nit wits mirrors the idea that Satan’s greatest achievement was convincing the masses he doesn’t exist.
As for the continued political tone, I don’t know if jim actually believes/cares about the competing rivalries, or feels the need to satisfy a certain group of readers.
It’s all moot of course. The real issue is who gets to be the guard, and who gets to be the inmate. Every person here has a life experience of simply growing our way out.
But that requires surplus, not scarcity. Some unlucky people through the ages who have come and gone before us have experienced similar periods of decline aka empire collapse.
Think broad scale and ignore the daily bs.
@mitchellc
In your mind, what is the definition of “atheist”?
Does one who disbelieves in the existence of a god but who recognizes that anything is possible meet the criteria as an atheist?
Must an atheist proclaim a truth that gods do not exist?
I’m always curious about this because it seems to me the contentiousness between beliefs is unnecessarily fabricated. By example, I consider my religious friends and family to be silly and naive in their beliefs but I’m certainly in no position of absolute knowledge to tell them that they are wrong. I simply wish they would adopt a similar position in their perspectives.
What’s your take?
~toktomi~
I’m unsure who said it first, explaining their rejection of the term “atheist”:
“Is there a word for someone who denies the easter bunny?”
That’s about right.
Well … except for NOBODY believes in the Easter Bunny while the vast majority of people (billions) believe in God.
So there’s that.
And many people who believe they are a woman when they are a man and a man when they are a woman or a furry when they are human or black when they are white or hispanic (Baldwin’s wife) when they are white, or are good when they are evil.
No matter the size of the affected population,
their insanity does not define my terms.
I was not referring to your terms. You are 1/8,000,000,000 of Earth (i.e. except to God and perhaps a dozen people, you are statisically insignificant).
Regardless of you, the belief/denial of the Easter Bunny and of God are very different on account of it is zero vs. billions.
That’s why your lame proposition is not widely used. It is apples and orangatangs.
You could hear yourself sweat, he walks in
Eyes black as coal
And when he lifts his face
Ev’ry ear in the place is on him
Starting soft and slow
Like a small earthquake
And when he lets go,
Half the valley shakes
It’s Love, Brother Love
Avatar: You must love Kyle Rittenhouse. He really got those bastards who were trying to kill him. It doesn’t matter than they were your folks. You’re beyond all such Tribalism. Amirite?
He would have got the Black who kicked him in the head but the Black’s momentum put him behind Kyle and he got while the getting was good when Kyle began to fight back.
@Jarek
I’m of 2 minds
What kind of messed-up parents allows their armed teenage son to enter the fray ?
He knew what he was getting into.
Knowing the gunsexual AR type, I know what they imagine themselves doing when not in COSPLAY, pretending to be revolutionary survivalists.
But, absent of this judgment, he seems perfectly justified in his defensive actions.
But again, I don’t forgive people for putting themselves in stupid situations, particularly situations that will allow for your dreadful fantasy:
A justified shoot.
Jarek needs a Rittenhouse. A useful red blooded warrior to do the work neither his convictions or courage or soft effeminate hands will allow him?
Ain’t that right Vlad.
Voyeurism, ain’t it something?
I get it: You love tough Blacks but hate and fear tough Whites. Perhaps you are right to do so.
Jarek
You’re too cavalier with your use of “hate”
I figure you’re only allowed to hate one or 2 people
Like say Hillary or… BonJovi
I cannot comprehend hating a class of people.
I am, quite literally, unable to comprehend it. Even the mysterious monolithic whites you are convinced I despise.
I am not being sanctimonious here.
I know this is true for many people
But I’ve probably been to, and lived in, more places than you haven’t. Interacted with all sorts of people.
I never really had time to be afraid of strange people or strange places or strange ways.
Your mind is closed
Because you never stepped outside it
@100th
The key cognitive consideration here is difference between disbelief and denial or rejection.
Most people, I find, do not understand the distinction. Can we count on you to be among this flock?
~toktomi~
no
you cannot
your denial, and it is denial, does not set my terms
the key consideration is the depth of your exploration
I consider my religious friends and family to be silly and naive in their beliefs but I’m certainly in no position of absolute knowledge to tell them that they are wrong.
Brilliant!
One cannot prove a negative. An absolute belief in no God can be no more valid than an absolute belief in God.
I’m with you. Agnosticism is the pov of pure rationality qua rationality. The zero. Belief in Something or Nothing, plus 1 or negative 1, is still Belief. And if about God, a religion.
People want to believe. And since Atheism is In, they prefer Atheism and its positive negative message to humble, modest rationality which says, “I don’t know”.
Atheism is cool. Agnosticism seems cold, but it is the true cool, the Warm of the Sun of the natural intellect. That being said, I’m a Believer, for non-rational reasons.
@toktomi
Great response. Personally the thought of making a statement of being “devout” of anything makes me cringe. Total and absolute belief in anything is the abandonment of critical thought. Just my 2 cents.
There is such a thing as direct experience of spiritual realms, though it is somewhat rare. Such cases compel belief, in the same way that one believes in the existence of ham sandwiches; one has seen them.
We are intended to be working in the dark here. If we knew that the outcome of our actions would be beneficial, we would do right opportunistically–to “get” something. I think this is why direct experiences of the divine are fairly rare. They are a form of interference with The Work. I think they are usually an emergency intervention.
Amen Anthea, that was true in my case.
Mitchell,
(from Wiki) “The contemporary meaning of the term “transhumanism” was foreshadowed by one of the first professors of futurology, a man who changed his name to FM-2030. In the 1960s, he taught “new concepts of the human” at The New School when he began to identify people who adopt technologies, lifestyles and worldviews “transitional” to posthumanity as “transhuman”
The whole “transhumanism” entry is worth reading.
When you say “thinkers”, are you thinking “transhumans”? As envisioned by someone like Julian Huxley? (“Sir Julian Sorell Huxley FRS[1] (22 June 1887 – 14 February 1975) was an English evolutionary biologist, eugenicist, and internationalist. He was a proponent of natural selection, and a leading figure in the mid-twentieth century modern synthesis. He was secretary of the Zoological Society of London (1935–1942), the first Director of UNESCO, a founding member of the World Wildlife Fund, the president of the British Eugenics Society (1959-1962), and the first President of the British Humanist Association”).
Just trying to understand your most unusual thought wavelength.
Rulo,
mitchellc doesn’t deign to respond to us, the deluded hoi polloi. I think he’s a closet centralist, envious of the current PTB that have a chance at all that future, copious poontang, AI servants, and steak and lobster on roomy jets between an uncluttered Acapulco and the Mediterranean crescent.
Soul,
it could be that. The closet thing.
When I see something he’s posted I’m very curious to understand him, because he’s spot on resource depletion, overpopulation.
Then says he wants to be the guard, not the inmate.
He sounds cold and rational, Apollonian – but isn’t endorsing mass murder, and volunteering to be a guard, Dionysian? Or even Molochian?
It’s one thing to recognize there’s too many of us and not enough Earth, quite a different one to signal one is ready to help the “thinkers” by dropping the Zyklon B into the showers.
To get on a flight to Acapulco?
Lonely planet indeed, Mitch.
Soul, Mitch was out having a ham sandwich ffs. Get a grip.
Rulo, I am astonished. I will back your logical depop dreams ONLY if you & all your beloveds take that one way ticket off this rock now. Wtf?
Mitch, yes, pure energy or something close to it is the way to go. But the trouble is the so called “thinkers” think they have it all figured out. Like Marx, Adolf, J Jones, more…,
They are right about the problems we face, and helpless in the face of ‘merely human’ options. And so the green option now up.
How very kind of them to condescend to solve our dilemma.
The answer is not a human plan. A human might get the gist of it like these so called thinkers have, but they are infinitely short on understanding. They are one part of infinity but have not transcended the whole of it.
If the Pope and the Dalai Llama don’t get it, I don’t know who will.
Oh, wait, I do know. It’s the lowly, the simple, those with no presumption of power who will be and have been told how this will play out.
Go figure.
It is a kind of divine irony that those without one iota of power, truly, have it all.
Kind of like a seed dead to this world
Actually, I do respond to valid commentary. It just seems around 75% of the posts are written by asylum inmates.
Anyway, I came up with the term thinkers as a substitute for leaders, elite, powers, etc. It’s wealth/power neutral, so that it incorporates a broad intellectual class who understand what is occurring.
Our host of course gets it, but he also enjoys the mental exercise putting pen to paper entails. So we get these political missives that act a bit like a strong cup of coffee.
As for transhumanism, that’s become a loaded term with negative connotations. To be honest, Arthur c Clark had it figured out before I was born: the true way forward is pure energy.
This suggests biological intelligence is merely a necessary step towards reaching full expression as time/space travelers.
Soooo, getting back to where we are today, if one were to draw an arc to what’s required to achieve our full potential, you can quickly see we have a major obstacle.
Yes, those pesky 7b useless eaters who are quickly consuming the critical resources needed to nurse humanity along until the zero point.
Now, to be clear, I don’t quite possess the necessary psychopathy that is essential to pulling off the great culling, but I certainly understand the motivations and objectives.
Mtchell,
fair enough. My 2¢ per paragraph #. Assuming you’re interested in another person’s view and not consider yourself the owner of the truth:
1- No, only about 25 to 50% depending on the week.
2- Maybe it’s not the complete term. The more accurate term, then, would be “right thinkers” – “bien pensants”, which is a loaded term too as it implies smug superiority. Many of us think. Yet don’t impose ghoulish agendas on the world. Perhaps the right term would be “gods” (small g). Or “kapos”. Or “mad scientists”. Or “false prophets”
3- Yes, a strong cup of coffee. Yes, he’s veered off of his forte and into petty politics. Meaningless politics, manipulated, irrelevant. Still a great writer. One day he’ll be back to acting, not reacting – setting up his own agenda, not dancing to the tunes of others. Or not.
4- A good author: “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”.
5- Hm, OK. Perhaps the only possible time – space travel is mystical, visionary, and to force us all into their understanding of that quest implies we don’t value our own time or space and, through technology, wish to transcend the dystopia we’ve created also through technology.
6- What is our full potential? My version: to be a race of kind philosophers. To be happy and wish all around us to also be happy. To live in harmony with Nature. To be rich because we need little, not because we have much. Other things too, but you get the idea. What’s yours?
7- Useless eaters doesn’t capture the whole idea. There’s a Kant and a Mozart among them, a man who makes his village happy with fireworks, a devoted mother who sacrifices all for her children, a joker, a guru, a man who talks to trees and the trees answer him, someone who pushes an old lady from the ongoing train and ends up under it himself. Useless? Who decides who’s useless? The “bien pensants”? Are they useful to anyone but themselves, under your definition? And what is the zero point? The singularity? OK, so I was right – you are a transhumanist. Not so unique, that. Brewed out of California’s witches’ cauldron along with New Age, political correctness, Manson cult, UFO cults, tech surveillance, plastic surgery, pop satanism and so many other Trojan horses. You may want to read Michel Houellebecq about all this I’m talking about. Plenty of English translations.
8- The only possible culling is not a culling – it’s a reduction in our numbers by methods both rational and humane. I’ve written posts about it here before in more detail, but you were not interested. In a nutshell: global consensus, education, economic incentives for sterilization, legal euthanasia for those who desire it, some forms of eugenics, a massive change in habits and expectations when it comes to consumption, a massive training of slum and city dwellers to become organic farmers and foresters, etc. You are correct a culling that involves deceiving and mass murdering people to preserve some “thinkers” prestige, status and use of whatever resources are left, would be pure psychopathy, and moreover, very bad mojo, very bad karma, for whoever tries to achieve it. Glad you’re not in that camp. Maybe it’s time we started talking about what I mentioned in the first part of this #8 answer, and not endorsing a “kill them all (you do it, I’m too chicken to do it myself… and please spare me, I supported you the whole time)” attitude.
Cheers!
Rulo, your reduction list is repugnant to me, though in the past at some point I may have agreed. Global consensus, but not in the way you see it. And education, yes, that aligns.
I am not talking about planned parenthood education or any iteration of globo homo talking points.
amw, how is his list repugnant? It makes sense to me.
Humans are using up resources at an unsustainable rate, and the human population will crash when the crops fail, which will happen when the oil and natural gas is unavailable.
We’ve already had testimony on this very thread that they are selling oil elsewhere for the higher prices, and that industrial agriculture will be struggling for artificial fertilizer this spring.
There is no point in pretending that 8 billion humans will be just fine without food and water, because we desire it to be so.
Better birth control and moving to the country is a better answer than a great culling, which is how I read what Rulo said.
Paula, you are right. I am not wrong. You can educate people but you can’t play God.
Hey ru, reconsider this, I know I sound brutal.
Rulo, I am astonished. I will back your logical depop dreams ONLY if you & all your beloveds take that one way ticket off this rock now. Wtf?
Mitch, yes, pure energy or something close to it is the way to go. But the trouble is the so called “thinkers” think they have it all figured out. Like Marx, Adolf, J Jones, more…,

Go figure.
It is a kind of divine irony that those without one iota of power, truly, have it all.
Kind of like a seed dead to this world.
Yeah, we can’t play God, but there are clearly people who think they can. Look at Gates and Fauci’s smug smiles and imperial decrees.
Paula, yes but when ru says he’s down with eugenics and euthanasia and sterilization. Too far imho.
I know the planet is crumbling under our weight. But every time a human made solution comes around it is a slippery slope until it becomes the final solution.
I think we will get crushed by the borg, and like that Marx quote from Jim I posted downstream, only after they lose it all, will they come round to God.
Of course for Marx that wsd come round to cccp
For time traveller extraordinaire, may I reccomend Louise Piccaretta. Worth the slog.
Following her dictates, (from above), YOU create the universe.
In conjunction with the divine.
anmari, what’s repugnant on my list? Seems rational and humane. Better than genocide, war, or a bioweapon pandemic and vaccines, no?
Voluntary euthanasia? Why do you talk about Planned Parenthood? I didn’t even touch on abortion. A movement to move to organic farms that would replace the mass industrial ag we now have? Certain forms of eugenics? (I’m thinking preventing carriers of certain hereditary diseases from having offspring, for example)
Bottom line, nobody alive today has to die. What’s wrong about it?
Rulo. P. parenthood was the wrong choice of words, sorry.
Repugnant because this, I’m going to go broad here and then get personal….good on everything u said except…
You cannot play God. You can educate. Did you see E. Musk on world population by 2050? Utube. The true population trajectory is down down down, once educated and living just above the poverty line. Malthus theory works.
I am religious. You know that. It is my understanding that these people trying to kill us by deception will be nuked in short order. 3.5 years from now. At that time the USA will be down to 100 million people, the rest having died by suicide according to Deagal, an arm of the intelligence community.
Most by suicide. I have my suspicions that that’s part of the ‘prick’, some code to shut down the amygdala when tptb see fit.
Stop laughing. If not then by despair! You see your country destroyed, your family, your hopes and dreams dashed, all your money turned to smoke, no food no hope, JUMP.
You’ve lived through the fire. You should be teaching us how to prepare not saying, ‘Off yourself, come on man, give us a hand.’
You saying this makes you just like them.
Eugenics? What, so we can have more human weiner dogs dragging their tums on the ground? Three eyes instead of two? What exactly are you trying to improve? Brain? Body? Design?
If you think brains are all that matter, and I know you don’t, go look at the lives of Musk…!, Gates, Bezos, Zuk. Look at any of your heroes. You want longevity? No you don’t.
Leave it to God man you are playing with a fire that is going to destroy you along with them in 3.5 years.
My brother opted out up here just after they legalized suicide. What a fucking mess. He had a DNR, do not resuscitate, we all do, NO intibation, ever, because 30% you’ll survive it w/o life altering injury.
So in their wisdom they convince him to intibate. This is before the coof. All downhill from there. Fully on fentanyl till he got the legal chops to pull the plug. Messy biz ru. For Gods sake no.
Just saw your comment about disease. Just you wait buddy. A continental sister of yours named Maria Esperanza saw some shit that takes care of congenital troubles and disease only 3.5 years out.
Hold it in your heart Ru, it’s a slippery slope.
For your son and his sons sons.
Please
Rulo, like my many syblings that attended private catholic schools and got ten times the education and life skills I could ever aspire to, who left the church forever but who had solid families, good jobs and only one divorce in the family, so somethinf must have rubbed off, like it did with you.
Your mom. Your mom is only here part time now. My mom was the same. It happens very fast when it begins, the final slope downward. Think of what she believed. I know you grew out of that, so did I, so did everybody that thought they had half a brain.
But they were wrong. My sybs are under a forced delusion. Two shots down, kids in line, arms ready to go, the kids kids same.
I want to go there in my stealth ninja midnight raid gear, save their lives. Ain’t gonna happen Ru. God will wake them up and heal them.
Do you remember the examine? Look at your thinking. No man can solve the big problems. Leave it to God.
anmari,
it seems you’re not really reading my thoughts but listening to the knee-jerk reactions in your mind to what you think I’m saying. Because I appreciate your contributions here, I’m not losing patience. I’ll be clear to the point of silliness:
I’m not playing God. I’m against trans-humanist experiments to deal w overpopulation. I’m not a nazi, a Mengele. I don’t endorse the great reset, or however this covid crisis is being framed.
My vision is a process of several decades where a consensus is reached globally that business as usual re pop and resources is not possible anymore. VOLUNTARY reductions, VOLUNTARY sterilizations funded by raiding the leech plutocrat, Wall St class. VOLUNTARY euthanasia. MILD FORMS of eugenics, not race or politically based exterminations. EDUCATION and a shift away from technology into billions of small homesteads growing organically.
That’s it. I’m done explaining it to you. Understand, or don’t. I respect your right to be a fundamentalist, messianic Christian, Catholic, whatever your beliefs. But you can’t tell me not to think for myself. In any case, my vision is totally optimistic and will never be achieved, so reductions will have to happen by the usual methods. In the words of Shakespeare, “famine, sword, and fire”. Cheerio, ciao.
Understood Rulo. Thanks for responding. Hope I didn’t poison the well.
Good convo. I think everybody’s an agnostic, cuz nobody knows 4 shore
But we will
1 more story. Remember Hitchens gr8 debates? So I know 1 of his debaters and asked him to get a quantum physicist in on the debate because of my experience with that discipline being indistinguishable from faith. He did and the debate flopped cuz Hitch, in his hilarious manner just made a joke of the scientist.
ammari,
I like Hitchens when he sticks to facts, but he had no sense of the transcendent, for which I could never forgive him.
Like his practical slam dunks against monotheism, he also excoriated the logical plot lines when critiquing world literature, but refused — nay, was unable — to distinguish or even recognize the deeper and esoteric issues the non-linear structure and mood were pointing to. (I.e., his reviews of the novels of Graham Greene and Orhan Pamuk were shallow and petty.)
I’ve always found that militant atheists are very similar to fundamental Christians. They both share a complete inability to question their bedrock foundational beliefs: atheists that life is purely mechanistic and materialist; and fundies that the bible is literally true.
Agreed, HTW.
I will venture, not for the first on these forums, that atheism is merely the absence of belief. It’s a pure negative. Not a positive belief in an ‘alternative’.
That said, as an atheist, I’m willing to believe that I might be wrong. Perhaps the Christians are right. Perhaps the Muslims are. Maybe the Indians. One of them could be.
Soul & Hereward, I disagree. Chris (and Rahm Emmanuel for that matter), were/was raised in a family similar to my own, excepting they were intellectuals, mine not so much.
So, and you can read this yourselves in various interviews with either, they would ‘have it out’ around the kitchen table.
Hitches brother of course became the famous pastor & columnist, and Hitch, true to his role at the dinner table, became the court jester. (& Some say agent for the state, which follows).
Now he may have been stuck there, but I don’t think so. I think inferring from some death bed tales we might presume otherwise.
And, HE facilitated actually talking religion for once, in those debates. And I am grateful.
SF, “I like Hitchens when he sticks to facts, but he had no sense of the transcendent, for which I could never forgive him.”
Amusing to conjecture what “…sense of the transcendent…” he has at this point.
Though who knows. It may be quite possible that, having evacuated the mortal shell, you stick to your guns and continue to appreciate the “Big Picture”.
Didn’t Hitchens drop acid? (Vague memory only.) That alone should have taught him a hard lesson about material reality.
RULO, one more reply from me Above the rest. Go up man, UP
Soon to be former Indianapolis school admin says that Indy schools are lying about not teaching CRT:
https://gab.com/KeepNHGranite/posts/107224771810112104
I admire the honesty.
I hope he’s got some rainy day savings and side/passive/gig income and few responsibilities in life.
In today’s day and age, honesty, while perhaps admirable, will get you little other than a spot in line at a local Food Bank.
Today one must “kiss up and shit down.” (It always was like that but now it is even more so.)
@5G
False dichotomy, I would offer.
There are probably a multitude of alternatives.
For example, walk away, either figuratively or literally.
To rattle on a bit more, I offer that there are only two things in life that we own, our opinions and our word. I value them dearly, and I will endeavor forever to speak my peace honestly and to keep my word. I’ll take that spot in line at the Food Bank while I walk away from their lying media outlets, their invitations for voluntary lethal injections, and their respect for authority. As any self-respecting red neck will tell you, fences keep in only the complacent.
So, there are a few more possibly wrong PO’s.
~toktomi~
Honesty and integrity in a world gone mad. You are an admirable but dying breed.
I commend you for your honesty and integrity. Does it get lonely?
Unless one is smart/energetic/lucky enough to forge his/her own ticket (entrepreneurial pursuits), one must play the game and nod as HR presents CRT with catered lunch. To do otherwise would be like trying to stop the tide.
So not true. There are huge movements arising because of the absolute insanity going on in schools. A new home schooling movement, lots of alternatives. People aren’t just going to comply with the New Normal.
@5G
There is no shame, at least to me, in accepting a humble and meager existence. For me, it has been a life’s trip, amazingly trippy, that broke down the facades and barriers and allowed the Earth into my life. Walking away from a job when it ceased to be fun, being granted anearly a lifelong thrill with each fun task at hand [save for that Marine Corps thing of my youth] and spitting in authority’s soup all along the way has made for unlimited happiness.
There is no need to stop the tide. One need only to retreat to higher ground.
maybe; maybe not
~toktomi~
toktomi,
well said. And our word is vastly more important than our opinion; in fact it includes and supersedes it. If we are serious about our word, and keep an impeccable record of fulfilling whatever we said we would, what does it matter what our opinions are? Our word IS our opinion, a stronger version of our opinion.
Opinions are cheap, a belief strong enough to vow to act in a certain way because of it, even if we end up in the welfare line or the concentration camp:
– The nazis are shite: opinion
– I will fight the nazis to my death: my word
– The jabs are dangerous: opinion
– I will not get the jabs no matter what: my word
Nice. Anglin estimates 40% of antifa are Tribe. Your brothers and sisters.
Jarek
“Anglin estimates 40% of antifa are Tribe. Your brothers and sisters.”
What tribe? Organic farmers? Lapsed Catholics? Book readers? Soccer fans? White Hispanics?
Yeah, the organic honey community! Face it, you’re sick of this organic shit. You want Action….
Today one must “kiss up and shit down.” (It always was like that but now it is even more so.)
Yes, it took me far too long to learn this in my own career.
Right? It feels so creepy. I railed against Teacher’s Pet while accumulating higher grades. Not just an individual pet but the entire concept.
I thought that merit and track record would prevail in the “adult” corporate world but Teacher’s Pets naturally progress into Brown-nosers and get the perks and the promotions.
At least, that has been my experience.
All those white women teachers will turn on him. They love Mayor Pete and Chasten!

“Now, I’m going to tell you succinctly what is behind Critical Race Theory, and it’s going to hurt: After sixty-odd years of civil rights policy and legislation, a sizable cohort of African-Americans are not making it in this society and white WJPs (aka “liberals”) are stricken with guilt and shame at the failure of their efforts to uplift this group and heal the world. So, they’ve teamed up with the nation’s race hustlers to construct a scaffold of excuses for why this is so. The actual reasons for why this is so are taboo, namely, liberal deconstruction of American family life, unwillingness to prescribe behavioral norms, and self-sabotaging cultural choices such as the failure to promote the teaching of language skills as a primary task of public education — because ghetto English is more stigmatizing and economically disabling than skin color or any other feature of self-presentation, unless you are a professional comedian. That’s the cold, hard reality and that is what needs to change — but it won’t change as long as race-hustling (making money off the excuses) is considered “okay.””
EXCELLENT explanation.
When the USA hit peak oil in the 70s, the Congress of that time passed a law saying that US oil companies could not sell any more oil abroad.
The Congress of 2015 lifted the ban and the oil companies immediately started selling oil to other countries.
They also sell coal.
The Ohio and Mississippi rivers come together near the town of Cairo, Illinois. Some years back I heard that China had bought the Port of Cairo and was planning on modernizing it.
Big ships could only come up to Memphis, but they wanted to be able to send them up to Cairo. It involved removing a bridge which was too low for the big ships. So we started getting propaganda about “modernizing” infrastructure, including replacing that bridge.
I have no idea what happened. The man that told me all this is no longer a friend, and none of it was reported in the media, except the part about how we “needed” to “modernize” our infrastructure.
I did go to Cairo and wanted to go see where the Ohio and Mississippi came together, but the road to it was blocked and I didn’t want to walk. Why was it blocked? They didn’t say, but I can guess.
My point is that it is probably more profitable to sell the oil abroad than to make sure that Americans have electricity, so that is what they will do.
And coal.
Capitalism. Free market. Goods are sold for profit. Supply/Demand. Bigger demand, higher price. Higher price, more profit.
Those opposed should have bought shares in the frackers and thus benefited from these larger profits of increased supply.
American oil is no more American than Chinese iPhones are Chinese.
That is supposedly why we have a government, to protect the people.
Look at the difference between the Congress of the 70s and the Congress of 2015, when it comes to saving American fossil fuels for Americans.
Yes, you are correct. We are in agreement.
You speak of how things were (US Congress for US citizens) while I speak of how things are (US Congress for multi-national corporations).
In my opinion, many Americans were so indoctrinated with the simplistic: Capitalism Good, Socialism Bad that they never saw the “end-run” coming.
Capitalism will devour everything until it eventually must feed upon itself.
Capitalism hates borders and, ultimately, populations.
“Greed is good.”

Yes, if the point is to have everything and you are already at the Top, then it becomes a question of reducing the number of slices of pie, and thus eaters of the pie. What the point of owning the Pie if you have to share it? Now they just want the pie itself. The eaters helped get them there, but now they’re just useless eaters who have to go.
The people who founded this country came up with an excellent system that:
1. Worked very well for them (they were the elite expatriate Brits of their day. Why should they pay taxes to the King? Even though Britain, the KING, had incurred very real costs, raising taxes and borrowing money (which had to be repaid) to outfit ships and soldiers to fight across the Atlantic to save the Colonies from France in the French and Indian War, 1755-1763). Let’s just cancel that and start anew–no Kings. And I personally fully support that!!!
2. Worked well for the hoi polloi.
The founding fathers were not about “democracy”. Many cringed at the thought of under- or uneducated people voting, some maintained that only property owners should vote. Elitist thoughts that I have come to appreciate with and empathize with.
The founding fathers were certainly not “statists” or totalitarians.
The founding fathers came up with a Republic, with government power relatively limited, and that power divided between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches.
Remaining authority was the domain of the states, and it was expected that they too would have checks and balances.
The implication was that every entity would zealously work to ensure its prerogatives were maintained and not encroached. It was anticipated that entities might seek more power (at the expense of other entities), and the other entities would check this.
While the USA had, all things considered, an exceptional run from 1789 to 1860, and again from 1865 to 1973, the foundation was corrupted by the poison pill of slavery.
In my opinion, as America developed differently, between the nascent industrial North, and the agrarian South, the real question was how the Feds would generate tax revenue. The North was in favor of tariffs on foreign goods (and EVERY successful economy has availed itself of tariffs) to help the NORTHERN elites who had factories making goods that were overpriced and inferior to European (British) goods. However, the SOUTHERN elites (the plantation owners) wanted free trade, so they could export their wares (which used slave labor) and get the most for them.
Slavery was related, but not the big issue. However, it resonated with the public in the North, so it was used.
The Civil War was a big blow to decentralized power, as the Federal government’s role expanded.
The Federal Reserve Act, the income tax, the direct election of Senators also eroded the Constitutional foundation. The huge corporations and banks of the late 1800s and early 1900s had excessive control of government, also eroding the Constitutional vision. FDRs attempts to corral them didn’t stop there–let the government take over. Then the mega-state required to fight WWII. The the military-industrial complex to fight the cold war. All of these took us off the course the founders had aimed for.
My goodness, must I be so long to get to the point?
So, here’s the deal (in my opinion): the modern Republican party’s main mission in life was to preserve the wealth of big money. To cut taxes, playing to the public’s “freedom” and “lower taxation”, while in reality, corporate America and their elite usually (not always) benefit. They also push smaller government. In the past 40 years, lack of money and the GOP have eviscerated the watchdogs.
While the watchdogs have been excessive at times, in general, they are undermanned, overwhelmed, and do a poor job of regulating. They’ve outsourced the regulation of industries to the industries themselves.
Laissez-faire, absent of checks and balances, leads to monopoly, corporate control, and ultimately feudalism, as we will be finding out.
On the other hand, government run amok leads to pretty much the same thing: government control and slavery.
The slow erosion of the values and finances of middle America has weakened the checks that “normal people” agreed on, and made Americans more partisan, and the duopoly reflects the wishes of the elite.
A Republic, if you can keep it, said Ben Franklin.
According to this piece, the results of vaccine trials were doctored, and the FDA really hasn’t overseen them. Actually, according to this piece:
In 2007 the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of the Inspector General released a report on FDA’s oversight of clinical trials conducted between 2000 and 2005. The report found that the FDA inspected only 1% of clinical trial sites.6 Inspections carried out by the FDA’s vaccines and biologics branch have been decreasing in recent years, with just 50 conducted in the 2020 fiscal year

The Democrats of course have degenerated into statists who sow division and are willing and eager to destroy what is left of this country so they can run it.
Socrates, gr8 insight there for me, admittedly a non citizen. So what’s the solution then? I keep thinking about that 3 feet of rebar used to hit the libs upside the head in Jims piece.
I think the tool or weapon if you will that we can use to take down the behemoth might also be the thing that can shore up the foundation of the republic.
What say you?
Good points, Socrates.
We’re in quite a predicament at this point.
Thank you all.
I just wanted to point out how little the FDA actually monitors the pharmaceutical industry, according to that link.
We have hundreds of pages of laws, but this is just common sense.
And the much-hated IRS (and I hate the the tax code too, and by the extension, the IRS) is drowning in thousands of laws, yet undermanned. The average person who gets caught up (not CAUGHT for wrong doing, just caught up, can be destroyed). Yet people who are cheating, most of them can lawyer up, and the IRS seems too weak to catch them.
The SEC. Are they really preserving the integrity of stock markets?
Pro sports, not nearly as important as those three functions, have officials, and official reviews.
I’m not laissez faire. I’m an advocate of limited government. We we need the same rules for everyone, and they need to have teeth and be enforced.
Too much government leads to dictatorship and slavery.
Laissez-faire leads to servitude. Different flavors of the same disease.
Socrates, as was discovered in 2008, the sec, like the fda today has meagre human resource and less will to enforce any law, lest it go against the true mandate of gov.
On laissez faire vs supreme top down fascism, you are on to something here.
To marry Jims rebar with that, it was moral outrage that served to bring down the servant of moloch, and that same outrage could fix the foundational deviations writ large these dark days…..

Are you positing that 1] selling oil abroad and 2] making sure that Americans have electricity are mutually exclusive?
aside: even as a net importer of oil, the US still exports oil, and I’m not aware that anyone on the continent went without electricity due to a shortage of fossil fuels.
I can’t make heads or tails of your tales.

I’ve read Cairo has fallen on hard times. Was that your impression?
I’m 66 and a native Illinoian. The last time Cairo was vibrant I was not yet born.
Although Cairo got some nice publicity in season 2 of “American Gods”, a TV series I recommend.
I made a special effort to visit Cairo, Illinois a few months ago because it’s position at the confluence of the Mississippi and the Ohio rivers made me think it might be an ideal town with attributes which Jim Kunstler would espouse. Sorry to say it is a wreck. It reminded me of one of those abandoned towns in a Mad Max movie.
It floods. They have a giant floodgate there, but the last time it flooded they evacuated a lot of people, many of whom never made it back.
During a recent driving trip out West my husband had to figure out a way to get there from Georgia without going through Illinois (we were travelling with firearms and God forbid the Illinois gun laws he said). We took a 45 minute detour but it turned out that we actually did have to go through Illinois for 10 minutes via the Cairo bridge. If the bridge has been modernized you can’t prove it by me – two lanes barely wide enough for a car and semi to pass at the same time.
Interesting. Thank you.
Be happy you don’t live in Europe.
You have not seen anything until you drive Alpine roads just wide enough for a Volkswagen Golf, and need to devise a way to let an oncoming tractor pass without finding yourself tipping over the edge and falling about a thousand feet to your death. In winter with about two feet of snow.
Night Owl, those (Austrian never been to Switz), switchbacks are truly something to behold. Btw, half of my genes come from Baden Baden, in the Black Forrest bordering your country.
Yes, Cairo has been largely depopulated, and it has been going on for decades, but it has increased.
There is a young reporter who was assigned to investigate the housing projects. It turns out that the Alexander County housing department was corrupt!! What a shock! She won a prize for her reporting and the entire housing project was shut down, and the residents removed.
I pointed out to her that that is the reason we have auditors and building inspectors. They could have fixed the problem without kicking out the residents by auditing the books and fixing the plumbing, etc.
She looked shocked. I don’t think that ever occurred to her. She was just SO proud of her prize.
The man that told me about the plans for the Port is a professor of architecture and he was trying to save both the old mansions of Cairo and the shotgun housing. Both are a lot like old New Orleans, which is probably because it was the French who built both cities.
But he failed. They tore down all that classic housing also.
It turns out that the Alexander County housing department was corrupt!! What a shock!
That made me laugh.
Where did the displaced people go?
I only know where the mother of my co-worker went. She went to an assisted living place in this town.
Same as New Orleans. Who knows where they went? I recently heard that some of them are here also.

@Southern
Are you advocating for insurrection against the forces of evil?
No!
But I sure do admire it.
~toktomi~
Absolutely I am ~toktomi~. But let’s not speak of insurrection when we really should be speaking of revolution. After all, insurrection suggests an unpopular or factional uprising against an elected government (a classic Pelosian gaslight). The last time I looked a lot of people didn’t vote for Joe (and he needs some – yaaaaawn) and even less people voted for the Deep State actors/bureaucraps et.al. that truly control the affairs of the nation. So yes, let us all be Vs (sans the physicsl disfigurement).

It’s all go outside my window – the fireworks I mean. (The curtains are closed – I’m just getting the noise).
Our previous dog used to go insane with terror, desperately trying to force herself into tiny corners or under the desk, shaking with fear, scraping with her sharp, greyhound’s claws on the carpet as she tried to dig her way through to Australia and freedom from fireworks.
This one, thankfully, isn’t bothered, which is a blessed relief. Also, in recent years, the 5 Nov. fireworks would start at Halloween and carry on every night until the weekend after bonfire night. In these covid times, the appetite seems to have waned, so nothing but a few crackers in the nights after Halloween and most people seem to have waited until tonight, although I expect the weekend will also be active.
GreenAlba, I eagerly await the return of large explosive displays, celebratory or not. However, to ne clear, the original intent of Guy Fawkes Day is not what I have in mind, Rather, here in the States, and indeed the world, we should be lamenting the failed attempt of the plotters for we Americans cannot take even small satisfaction in, say the graciousness or the dignity of our King or Queen. No. We unfortunately are stuck with the snakes and locusts of our ruling and political class which have ruined our nation and cast blame on everyone else for its condition as JHK alludes to above.
Here in Germany they have stopped selling fireworks in most of the local shops due to “climate change.”
And what exactly does gunpowder have to die with climate change? Oh wait, I get it. We can’t celebrate because the Climate Changers are saying we all must bow our heads while planet earth, uh, “suffers.” As if during the last 4.5 billion years prior to the rise of Homo Sapiens the planet never strained under the weight of some other catastrophe. Bullshit. But, you know that NightOwl. I preach to the choir.
have to do with. Sorry.
Smoke is bad for the climate you, see.
Meanwhile thousands of private jets fly into Scotland to save the planet.
“Meanwhile thousands of private jets fly into Scotland to save the planet.”

Not a good “look.”
Indeed. And to think I felt mildly guilty when I took the Jacobite steam train (aka the ‘Harry Potter train’) from Fort William to Mallaig for no good reason but to enjoy the scenery.

Toot toot …
If you look closely you can see me waving from the window. 🙂
That pic reminds me of Glencoe. No idea if it is actually near there, however.
It’s about a 90 minute drive away.:-)
We didn’t get a view like that, sadly. We arrived in Oban from the lovely island of Mull on the ferry the day before, with Mediterranean sunshine splitting the bricks, and looking forward to the trip the next day. I’d booked first class tickets, which gave you seats that were like elegant Edwardian armchairs, plus free tea and a scone!
Sadly we woke to pissing rain, which stayed with us the entire day. We had to run to a restaurant on arrival in Mallaig, for fish and chips, then run back to the train for the rainy return trip.
I love that photograph, Alba. Were you actually on that train?
Yes, there are normal trains on the Ft Wm to Mallaig line too, but there is one Jacobite trip a day in the summer. The scenery is impressive, but you do need the weather.
https://westcoastrailways.co.uk/jacobite/steam-train-trip
Although you get more and cheaper just by getting a normal train from Glasgow up to Fort William. You’re hardly out of Glasgow before you hit the beautiful views of the Clyde estuary in Argyll (‘land of the Gaels’), and the single track railway further north over e.g. the Rannoch Moor (think RLS’ ‘Kidnapped’ from Jacobite times, if you have read the book) is beautiful, in a wild, slightly desolate way.
Fort William, though – known as the ‘gateway to the Highlands’ (it’s by Ben Nevis) is a dump. But there is the best pie shop ever on the Main Street!

The filling was traditionally encased in the lining of the fourth stomach (rumen) of a sheep – not it’s colon. So you may conclude that the rather short list of ingredient(s) mentioned is not accurate either.
The most infuriating thing NightOwl and Islander is this. The same clack and cluck of industrialist, of globalists who profited these decades and centuries from all the wondrous economic expansion now want to claim the moral high ground using climate change as their cover story when, in reality if we subscribe to our host’s thesis, endless economic expansion is no longer possible due to Peak Oil. They created a Frankenstein, a bubble of human population and now they need to deflate it. They seek to furlough the greater part of humanity from existence. But DuPont and other chemical manufacturers didn’t mind the expansion while they were selling toxic, petroleum based fertilizers and pesticides to the agricultural industry. Archer Midland Daniels and other giant Agri-ists didn’t mind the expansion while they were selling us their increasingly nutrient deficient and insipid tasting food products. Gates and Jobs didn’t mind selling us their computers which supposedly makes our lives better until maybe people started to get too smart. All of them capitulated only when their natural capitalist inclinations came under attack from the same clack which always ruins it for everyone. The Socialists or the Marxists or whatever you want call them. In the end they’re all Ayn Rand’s Destroyers.
Weirdly enough, in the spring of 2020, during the pandemic, some US cities were bombarded with fireworks going off all night, every night, for months.
The poor dogs! But people were also complaining about it.
It went on in New York, Detroit, LA, San Jose, and others that I can’t remember. I just remember that for some reason, it didn’t happen in Seattle.
The noise lasted until 3 or 4am every night. Where did the fireworks come from? They are illegal in most of the places they were going off?
Who paid for it? Fireworks ain’t cheap.
Why did the police allow it?
The whole thing was suspect as hell. I still don’t know what happened, but this year, it did not happen.
Must have been part of the psy op.
They were also having ambulances driving around with their sirens on all the time.
I hadn’t heard that part. But constant noise is very stressful to humans and other animals.
One of my friends in New York City was sleeping in the closet with her dog to try to escape the noise.
And around here we didn’t even have much on July 4th. Everyone was too poor, I assume.
So where did the city people get the money?
Always with the language eh? Change it’s meaning, redefine, ghetto-up, what ever happened to Esperanza, language of the world?
Short story. I had to give a speech in Japanese. I could write it, but it would sound something like, “This big house is government….”. A Japanese person wrote the speech for me instead. I have no idea what it said, but am an excellent parrot. Afterwards I was pursued by some folks who wanted to continue the conversation begun in the speech.
Meanwhile, I’d been hanging out with peeps my own age and had learned their jargon, a whole other language in fact with different verb endings, accents, the whole shebang, a gutteral and harsh version of Japanese, very rappish.
So they ask me a question, and I say something like, “Yah, it’s all bs.”, forgetting precisely WHO I am talking to IN Japanese society considering MY position as a young, white, female. These 3 consideration should have raised my Japanese to using the highest honorifics, a good two or more levels of language above what I actually said. Room went silent, gasps were heard, laughter barked. I was not asked to return.
Now we get your moniker. Guess you wont be hosting NHK WORLD anytime soon.
Guess not
@animari
“honorifics” in the Japanese language and culture, honoring the hierarchy, eh? I’m just now becoming aware of such societal atrocities.
Who should bow the lowest? No thanks. I’ll seek out my coyote brethren; seeking to neither submit nor dominate but merely earning or takig what little I need in the shadows.
Good story on you.
~toktomi~
Look outzzzz, them coyotes be tricksters.
And them wolves hunt them peoples
Seen it. Ok, heard about it.
I as female, young and white should scrape my very head on their august robes by light of the temple of the August moon.
And have done so.
Not on, upon
“the August moon.”
anmari,
And…and cry for happy?
Ely, not sure here. I certainly had to defer to these erstwhile mandarins.
I was lonely there and had not a moment of alone time……
If you mean the laughter barked……Japanese do that when discomfited, so do we but not like them. So many rules !
An,
Sorry. It was an obscure reference to a movie…”The Teahouse of the August Moon”
A memorable line.
Yah, I looked that up actually but didn’t see that quote. Lol.
Cry for happy it is then.
anmari, what an amazing story. Thanks for sharing.
Do they really have “Japanese only” signs in some places there? Is it as closed as I read it is? What’s your take on it? I read it’s very hard to become a resident there from someone, a Canadian, who taught English there for a while. Was that your gig, too?
Rulo, they take all comers now as Japans pop crisis is in overdrive. Most men go there to teach english and marry a Japanese girl.
Maybe thats the only way in.
The old samurai family that housed me there had no heirs. I think their plan was to adopt me and marry me off to one of the up and comers, or adopt him or something.
My experience of the Japanese is that they are xenophobic to the max. Extremely polite so you would probably never guess.
I was studying there Ru.
Never saw a Japanese only sign. I would think they would not be overt about it. But all my intel is old so, maybe.
One more story. First a dream. When I first arrived I was asleep on tatami, on a japanese futon, (the kind you roll up and put away in the morning), in the upper chamber.
I dreamt two hags, long grey hair swirling, kimonos waving around them, pointed to me with their inches long and curled fingernails, hovering above me, warning me off their island, in no uncertain terms.
It was cicada season, the roar you would hear while going by a jungle, a bamboo forest. I awoke with one in my mouth, thrashing furiously.
Think 3 inches of cockroach, but with mythical properties.
…………….
Next is not a dream. I thought I dreamt that somebody old kept coming in my room at night and looking down at me. Every night.
After a month of this, I ask if anybody gets up in the middle of the night to pray at the shinto shrine to ancestors that is adjacent to my room. Looks are passed quietly around the dinner table, one foot higher than the tatami floor, with a depression for more leg room, an electric brazier under it to toast our feet, and a table blanket we get under ànd strap to our kidneys to stay warm.
No central heat!
Later the mother of the house takes me to a small sliding wooden door, something like a big closet emerges, beautifully finished wooden bookshelves set into the closet but with small and varied divisions housing dolls and toys from a bygone era, mostly.
Below these shelves is a single bed, made up in tones of pink.
Mother tells me this is where her husbands sister lives and sleeps. This sister was still invitro when Nagasaki, a few short miles away, was nuked. Something’s wrong with sister. The Japanese did not at that time display their crippled or their weak. They still might not, Olympics notwithstanding.
So I met sis, not downs, but sweet like that, just not really there. They let her out to play at night. And sometime in the day when I was not around, somebody would cart her off for other things.
Classic feminine writing. The Dreams come first. And the actual physical action in our common world comes second. It’s hard to tell them apart in the writing. You come to realize that women find it hard to tell them apart too – and prefer the subjective in any case. As Freud said, “the primary process”.
Interesting info on the Japanese though. Some have said behind their ritualized indifference, they are very emotional – like Italians.
Yes, they are dying, infected by modern Western culture, both pop and corporate. The women all want to be millionaires not mothers, and the men have lost interest in them now as well.
Good observations J, and true, though I never thought about it that way.
Could you do me a favour, and read my comments on the point form culling solution debate by Ru and Mitchell somewhere upthread.
Specifically my replies, which are out of order according to the blog list, but pertinent I think.
Tell me if I have to clarify, condense, or expand.
Critique it baby!
J, is this not magic realism? Marquez asking.
anmari,
both stories are eerie. The first one was hypnotic, the dream. I know cicadas. I also know historically the Japanese have been very isolationist. It would make sense that the hags were spirits to warn you, the foreigner, to get out. The cicada in the mouth being a reminder of that when you got out of dreamworld. Kind of like the flower that the time traveler brings back in HG Wells’ “The Time Machine”, a real token of a different world. In any case, what a shock.
The second one is also strange, but not as scary. You say the sister was “in vitro” when the bomb dropped, but did they have artificial insemination back in the ’40’s? Maybe you meant “in utero”?
I read somewhere that cultures are either of guilt or of shame. I think Japan is probably the latter, and they must be very keen on hiding away any source of shame, like that odd sister.
In any case, what an experience to be there, back when there were very few outsiders. What an alien culture.
I appreciate you sharing some of the stories and experiences from those years.
I thought you may enjoy this recent piece on a blog I follow, written by a Swedish man, sometimes in English. He makes very interesting connections between the US political situation and traditional Japanese worldviews, and the way they understand warfare. Enjoy!
https://tinkzorg.wordpress.com/2021/11/02/2740/
RU, yes, in utero!!!
Big shock. Terror in fact. I think they were relative come down to scare off the gaijin bitch.
The token, the cicaida. Will look up what it means….
Cicada Represents illumination, empowerment, insight, breaking through, and having a sense of humor with leaving others to figure out
The cicada is an animal replete with symbolism: recurring themes are resurrection, immortality, spiritual realization and spiritual ecstasy. For the Ancient Greeks and Romans they sang ecstatically, were sacred to Apollo and related to the dionysiac bacchae and maenads.
More meanings on search too.
Shame! Alien! You nailed it ….like bladerunner Ist
Will read ru, thnx!!!
Jarek. Very emotional. Will kill themselves at any opportunity. Shame, failing a test, love troubles, work troubles, but some are survivors.
You know the black robes that survived Hiroshima with nary a radiation sickness, w e r e p r o t e c t e d by God. Look it up!
One thing I forgot. The grandfather lived there too. His I presume, because of the paternal nature of their society. I bet it was his house. The day I arrived he said, “I smell gaijin’. Ouch.
He was nearly blind, white eyed, a spider of a man, tall in his muted silks, pouring over the Asa Hi Shibun, the newspaper, with a 6 inch magnifying block of circular lens, laying on top of the low table where he sat cross legged with his tea.
This in a separate apartment set apart from the main house. A traditional U shaped Japanese construction, garden in the centre of the U. All sliding shoji doors, a miracle of paper and bamboo.
No Japanese without a phd could read that paper.
His samurai sword hung behind him on the wall, a fact I kept close.
And for Samurais anyway, money was dirty, women kept the books. They had graineries for shipping rice and the hospital.
Wow! A feudal society, JHK called it in one of his essays. I can see why.
I read somewhere that Japanese and Chinese can actually smell Westerners. We smell of sour milk. Traditionally, they never used to eat dairy products or drink milk. It’s changing some now, with globalization. China now imports some cheese and milk, I know that.
So the old samurai could smell you. Besides, when you’re blind, they say your other senses get sharper.
Ru, He never deigned to be in my presence again. Oh would be usurper I.
HE was probably praying at that shrine to his ancestors every night to nuke me….and they did!
And….late at night I smelled the incense, heard the gong.
Ru, this was the 1980s
Jared Taylor, the Founder of American Renaissance, grew up in Japan and speaks it fluently. Japanese find this mind blowing. They admit that they are so ethnocentric that they find it hard to even see it, being so central to their identity.
He tells a story of a girl who lived with a Japanese family like you. As she left, the mother said: We loved having you. You’ve become like a daughter to us. Please don’t use your ability to speak Japanese to get a Japanese boy. We would see that as a betrayal.
The girl felt she was out on her feet. She never picked up on it during her time with them. If they feel this way, why do they do this to themselves, hosting foreigners? Duty?
As far as overpopulation, Traditional Catholics haven’t a clue and react violently and stupidly. It’s something new and they can’t deal with anything not in Scripture or talked about by the Church Fathers. The Fathers knew nothing about this. But you’re right too: the solutions proffered are monstrous.
I sense OG gets it. He really is very smart. He doesn’t get involved in the debate because he never believed fallen humanity would ever be able to solve its own problems.
A non-Fallen humanity? Sex would be sacred and obviously couples would only have children intentionally. The idea that real Catholics have to have huge families is crap I’m afraid. That would lead to over-population in the long run. After two or three, you have to stop if the world population is in the billions. After the Catastrophes, there will be the opportunity to have more of course. These things are difficult for us because of our fallen natures and blighted intellects. They’re not that complicated in and of themselves.
Why do this? They were on top of the world when I was there, like 1950s america. So the deal was, in order to ease the commerce/trade & diplomacy angle, encourage foreign students, sponsor them. My niece did the same in this century, but note this, the kids lived in dorms….no more families.
Lucky me. I got to see some rare thing that is no more.
I did go overboard up there. Should have left it at my initial -people w/o an iota of power have it all -comment. But you know, nothing exceeds like excess, I am a master of that. A brain is a dangerous thing J. Thankfully mine’s waning.
How’s smells & bells ? Go today? I went last eve but am needing a refill, asap.
“I have come to many realizations reading AmRen, but the most important is that we cannot be overcome with hatred and rage. All of us have those feelings sometimes, but they are not productive emotions and are eventually self-destructive. Instead, let us endeavor to channel our focus into helping one another and waking up as many of our people as possible”
just took that off Amren websight J. Comments.

I don’t think you need much more than attrition and real love to conquer our problems. Easier said than done mind you. And by real love I mean a true emptying of oneself for ‘other’.
Sad today.
While I was being groomed in the land of the rising sun, before the desolation of the Christmas season, (when, for the first time since arriving I walked to town and got a pack of smokes from a vending machine on the street), a certain wife showed me how to sleep.
It is a womans duty to be ever ready for her husbands attentions you see, and so she unrolled her futon and lay down, on her back, head or neck rather upon the block, now not wooden, and if I remember correctly, hands were at her sides, palms open, ready to receive.
I tried sleeping like that. Block was first to go, then soon I rolled on my side and went to sleep. Nothing took you see.
New Years day… We rise to steaming bowls bowls of sweetened beans, a reddish brown, like the laquer ware. And mochi, or go mochi, the honorific reserved for sacred stuff. We have our green tea, not the powder used in the tea ceremony, not the Chinese gun powder tea, not the summers moogi cha with bits of toasted rice and barley, no.
We dress in our finest. We have written our prayers to the kami on small slivers of rice paper. We pile in the Jag, end up at a Buddhist shrine, or is it Shinto, in tow with maybe a hundred thousand others.
Moving with the crowd over the ancient curved bridge, I turn and take a picture, my best I think, now. A sea of finery and small white slips trails behind, a river of humanity, come to ask favour and absolution.
Rituals of feet and water ensue, the incense lit, the gong rung, the prayers stated in our hearts and on our paper tokens, and offerings having been deposited, we file out and tie them to relatively unburdened trees. It takes hours.
Here is another interesting thing I learned about Cairo.
The military built an airport around there in WW2 and then abandoned it after the war.
But the residents reported seeing giant planes landing in the middle of the night in the years after 2001. What were these planes doing?
I wonder if it had anything to do with the heroin explosion in this country after the US invaded Afghanistan. All that heroin had to be transported somewhere, and Illinois has the railroads and the rivers and the highways to move it.

My colleagues are on this thing and HR went all “Ooh la la’ when I opted out on it. Anyway, I hope it’s nowhere as bad as some of the literature says it is. How about that politician who scornfully and sarcastically thanked the President for scaring millions of American citizens into buying more guns and ammo than ever? She was made of something recognizable.

Newshawks are bringing their cameras and microphones to ‘Vaccination Centers’ where little ones as young as 6 are getting jabbed, interviewing these “Little Heroes”, shoving a microphone in their face for a quote, the kid with a shocked look on his face, not knowing how to respond, so just looks plaintively at his mother.

Little pleasures ? Little pain
No pleasure ? No pain
* My Mellow Misanthropy
Well Killervo, if the people who raised me were also the ones who killed my family & tribe, I wouldn’t even try. Condolences
kullervo,
don’t lose hope. “those excellent human beings” are not so few… a lifetime on Earth has taught me this… still a misanthropist, kind of, putting my $ where my mouth is and living far and away from the madding crowds, but… but… complete strangers have saved me more than once… I’ve seen acts of kindness… don’t give up!
We all can be the best version of ourselves. Despair is the enemy. Eats us up.
Big Pleasures? La Petit Mort. Is death pain? No, it’s a friend, not to be feared – the natural order of things. She walks next to us. She teaches us how important each day, each hour are.
Being the best version of yourself is all you can do, and it’s good enough. Have hope, my friend! No, not hope… have strength! To smile to the sun and the Earth every day, which is your last day. Every day is your last. Every day is final. And yet you smile. And plant seeds. And move a tortoise away from the road. And make an old woman happy by bringing her flowers. Your best you.
@Rulo Deschamps
Kind words.
Thank you.
Radical acceptance: the human brain is nothing but a tagging & ranking device; keeping my listings concise and tidy is my path. May yours be a fulfilling journey.
Best regards
Interesting how many seem to have suddenly “got religion” so as to avoid the vaxx. That’s what faith can do, I guess.
Hallelujah, brother!

Have ya ever seen a video recording of arguably the apex predator of their ecosystems, wolves, shying away from fenced enclosures newly erected in their habitat by humans?

There’s probably a whole lotta shakin’ goin’ on there.

Amen to that! 😉
Count me in as one of the few to being prepared (to the extent one can be, that is).
I suggest doing some serious reading:
Start here: http://www.orthomolecular.org/resources/omnsv17n15.shtml
Then here:
http://www.orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v17n13.shtml
Our medical system was hijacked well over 100 years ago with the replacement of homeopathic medicine with allopathic medicine (treating cause of illness with substances from nature that the body needs versus treating SYMPTOMS with unnatural toxic chemical cocktails that create more health issues).
Illness/disease occurs when the body is lacking what it needs to stay healthy, I.e. vitamins, minerals. With the industrialization of food production, the earth in which our food grows lacks the essential nutrients to pass along into our food. The toxic herbicides like RoundUp add toxins to our food, further exacerbating the health crises we face.
Eat as healthy as you can. Grow organic gardens. Stay away from vaccines and toxins. Supplement your diet with large amounts of vitamin C in addition to D3, zinc, magnesium, B complex, and also take detoxifying elements such as iodine and selenium. Etc etc. And read the other editorials by Thomas Levy and others on orthomolecular.org.
Knowledge is Power.
Enchanted1…knowledge is power, indeed. You sound like an environmentalist.
@tom and enchanted
Is “power” the answer?
A bit of tree cambium and insect larvae each day might suffice.

@Enchated
As one who has dedicated one’s life these last 21 years to preparations, I would like to humbly suggest that there is no such thing as “being prepared” for what is about to go down.
But anything is probably better than nothing, eh?
~toktomi~
Yes, sir, Enchanted!
And read good books, and smile, and throw away the TV, and do random acts of kindness.

I posted this a couple of weeks ago, but I don’t know how many people watched it.
CRT teaches that all ghetto problems are caused by 1619 and slavery. It completely ignores today’s culture.
I got this from a black friend who is horrified by it and worried about how to protect her son from these influences.
Please note that YouTube has not removed it because of “community standards” in the way they remove dissident scientists and doctors. Also note that it has 3.5 million views…

Paula,
there’s many in the black community sick and tired of this whole zeitgeist, this whole academic and wokie framework to explain what’s going on in their community.
Many! And they are getting bolder in raising their voices.
Tell me when they reject affirmative action and I’ll take them seriously. They’re natural place is at the bottom – and I think a lot of them know that.
their not they’re
Jarek,
“They’re natural place is at the bottom”, nope. Nobody’s natural place is at the bottom. At the bottom of what, anyway?
Rulo, Jarek is showing what the white nationalist thing is actually about.
They spend all of their time arguing about IQs among the races, as if only high IQ people deserve a job at a living wage.
Why? Is that a God Rule? Or is it a cutthroat capitalist rule? It didn’t used to be a rule. Manual labor was well paid when it was unionized, no matter how the worker scored on an IQ test.
We all have the same amount of hours in our days. Where is it written that some people’s labor time is worth so much more than other people’s? Where is it written that vast amounts of the population should be unemployed while other people work 80 hour weeks?
That makes no sense. And you would think that religious people, who tell you that God loves all his children the same, would not turn around and tell you that living conditions should depend on the color of your skin or your IQ.
Well once AA is gone, they would sink down to manual labor again – obviously.
In an earlier America, they did attain a small middle class on their own power. But they had their own little America then and that was probably a big factor. In todays America? As even the White middle class is dying? They wouldn’t have a chance in competition against us and the high IQ Asian immigrants, what to speak of Hispanic hordes.
@Paula, well said. The IQ argument to me is incredibly weak. Especially when you look at the crew in charge now, and how they are tanking the country. All Yale and Harvard grads, natch.
Why is no one addressing the big brains who never amount to anything? No shortage of those.
I hate the way our culture measures ‘success’ – it’s money based, not happiness based. And it seems to me, plenty of high IQ people are complete messes. I’ve personally known quite a few.
And, also, Paula, I am guessing that the white supremacist God does not consider ‘others’ to be ‘His children’. They are lesser. So that’s how they get around thinking of them as fully human, etc.
To Paula below specifically and others who are angry with God because of how He is often misrepresented by the ignoranuses in the world. I am a white male, my wife is a white female (and Southern Baptist) and we both are members of a church here in NC which is about as multicultural as you can find. There are a good number of interracial marriages and offspring including our pastor. We love the people in this church and I really cannot understand where this idea comes from that white is better except perhaps from a deep sense of self hatred. It is not inferior but neither is black. Most importantly, the true God of the Bible, YHWH, does not think so either. And I challenge anyone to prove otherwise by showing me in the BIBLE where it says the God prefers white people and chose them. After all, if white supremacists are correct, then how can they invoke the name of Jesus who was a Jew? Technically a Semite which puts Him closer to an Arab, which they refer to as sand ni***rs. And if they read their Bible even occasionally then they must know the story about the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8. But, pay no attention to those details you ‘ol cracker.
Yeah, the Old Testament is about the struggle for survival of one people, the Jews. In the sense it’s a very awkward fit with Christianity, though there are universal elements in it. Now some bozo Christians want to drag our Religion back to Judaism, and worship a Tribal God of an Alien people. Can delusion get any greater?
I take the opposite approach. If we would keep the Old Testament (beloved Marcion said ditch it), then we use it. We’re the Chosen People now. This was the traditional philosophy of the Church. The Jews forfeited it as a group by rejecting the new Covenant. Of course they can rejoin as individuals (convert).
Southern Yankee, I didn’t mean to include you or your fellow Christians who accept everyone as a child of God.
It is because I know a lot of people like you and yours in real life that I am able to recognize the lack of it in people like Jarek, who profess Christianity, but can’t quite grasp the concept.
Thx Paula D. Jarek, you make a good point. In fact, despite my Jewish friendships and Christian affiliation , I do not support the Apartheid in Israel which never gets addressed for fear of being blacklisted. And having worked among Hasidic Jews for ten years I can attest that their tribalism can sometimes turn my stomach. But fortunately some Jews have seen the Light. Have a nice weekend ya’ll!
Yankee,
Remember the quote of that “Sarte” feller?
“Hell is other people”/
Sartre….
Another Daily Stormer editorial is upon us, I fear.
Things are what they are regardless of who says them. That’s above your he said/she said paygrade, evidently.
One wonders why Jarek doesn’t spend his time with like minds, on white supremacy blogs, since he’s so anti-diversity.
I agree Rulo. One day last year when this CRT was ramping up I had two black friends say almost the same thing, one on Facebook and one in real life. They said ”What does it matter how we got here? We’re all here now. Why can’t we get along?” And I agree.
The criticisms people here are making are actually criticisms of the ghetto culture, and many, many black Americans agree with them. The whole ”pop ’em if you don’t like ’em” thing is unappealing to most people, no matter what color their skin.
But it is the ghetto culture that the Establishment elevates and exaggerates and glorifies.
Talk about a level playing field and taking away their Affirmative Action advantage – and watch them become very uncool very fast.
They know. You don’t. They can’t complete fairly.
I’m guessing you have had very little professional office work type jobs in a big city? Because I have years and years of it.
I worked with many many black people and honestly the difference between us was minimal. They were all middle class educated people like me.
And just as smart.
They have fooled you, Jarek.
The issue is not race, it’s class.
“The issue is not race, it’s class.”
It’s both.
And now that the middle-class are sinking into the working- and lower-classes like a bad souffle, class distinctions (outside the 1% of the 1%) are becoming increasingly meaningless. Not so with race.
Well you fall for the race-baiting stuff the PTB have engineered you to care about. I don’t, I tend to use some common sense.
You only know – and care to know – about the exceptions to the rule. But logic dictates we know the average first. And you have very little if any experience of regular Blacks. I do.
The odds that the 100s or even 1000s of black people I worked with over the years were all ‘exceptions’ is probably a million to one.
No.
They were normal middle class people, who did their jobs competently and usually with a great attitude.
Oh really! You worked with that many Blacks and never experienced any anti-White racism from any of them? I don’t believe you. You’re just copping an attitude and being oppositional. Just more of what we’ve come to expect from you.
“Well you fall for the race-baiting stuff the PTB have engineered you to care about.” — MaryQ
No, you’re a hypocrite, because you’re doing the same thing you accuse others of doing to you — that is, reading people’s minds.
I’m very dispassionate about this. Most Blacks, just like most people, I meet are moderately pleasant and benign. So what? This isn’t about whose anecdotes trump others’ anecdotes. That’s statistically insignificant, skewed in any number of ways, and frankly, silly. You like to go on about how real science is so important (re Covidian issues). Hard core statistics, measured appropriately, and set to rigorous parameters, able to be falsified, and able to be repeatable: sounds like the scientific method, what?
Use those resources for yourself, then compare and contrast all manner of categories — crime, education, and family stats being three big areas — White vs Black over monumental sample sizes. Then we can have a proper, unemotional discussion.
“The issue is not race, it’s class.”
MMFP,
No, the issue is culture, not class. Can a poor man be decent? Intelligent? Empathetic? Of course. Can one who embraces the Ghetto Culture be these things? Not so much.,…
No matter what his class….
What about rich people who embrace the ghetto culture, EF?
It is celebrated by the wealthy and powerful of this country.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnBZLFB7kLo
“What about rich people who embrace the ghetto culture, EF?”
Paula,
Exactly the point., can a rich man lie, steal cheat and kill?
You don’t have to live in a Ghetto to embrace what I call the ghetto culture.
only quacks would try early treatment.

A man goes to Istanbul and brings back a report: “the place is dysfunctional, dirty, derelict and dangerous.”
Another man goes to the same city: the place is “mellow, monumental, magnificent and magical.”
A third comes back with: “Food’s good. Lots of thieves. Beautiful women. Terrible traffic.”
Replace Istanbul with blacks in America. Or anything else, really.
The first visitor is the bigot: his blinders inform his whole view.
The second visitor is the wokie: his blinders inform his whole view.
Both the bigot and the wokie are right – there’s good and bad in Istanbul. But neither has the truth, because they see only one side of the coin, depending on their prejudice. The truth is the whole picture, not just one part of it.
Only the third visitor is both right and true.
To be the third visitor is a lifetime’s work.
Thus the importance of being able to take all the data and form a data set from which to generalize and abstract. Example: The average Black American IQ is 85. That’s knowledge. And from that flows more knowledge: they will never succeed in our society for the most part, completely outclassed intellectually by Whites and other groups. And from that, more knowledge: They should have been sent out of America as Jefferson, Lincoln, et al so greatly desired.
You’re stumbling around in the dark, Rulo….
“You’re stumbling around in the dark” – are you not?
“They should have been sent out of America as Jefferson, Lincoln, et al so greatly desired.” – How is pondering about what may or may not have happened helpful to us now?
You are aware that IQ is only one measure of intelligence, right?
You are aware that until relatively recently, places in Britain had signs warning “No blacks, no dogs, no Irish”, right?
Have you thought of the possibility that the rat race of the big cities, diminishing prospects for everybody regardless of IQ, a materialistic, golden Baal culture, technological alienation, and diminishing opportunities and resources bring out the worst in everyone, not just certain groups?
Agreed, Rulo. We sneer at blacks and then see millions of stupid whites rushing to take the jab. Blacks have enough IQ to realise what’s in the “vaccine”
There you go.
Common sense being used. Unlike among the uber-educated whites.
Hereward, that’s one angle I hadn’t thought of, and it’s true!
Ponder this too: who is smarter? He who knows not to trust the gov’t, keep his $ in cash and gold, know the black (ha!) markets, the barter economy, know who can help him or hide him in his time of need, to stay under the radar, run fast, hide well… or the fat guy on the couch amid crumbs of white (ha!) cheddar popcorn, screaming at the talking heads on TV, his $ in bitcoin and Tesla, in a McMansion in a long row of McMansions and not knowing anyone inside them?
Nobody is inherently superior. There’s no master race. We all have pros and cons.
So you admit Jefferson was right? But try to discount it because he was right in the past? As if its no longer an issue? Shame on you.
G or general intelligence is very, very important in this Culture, now obviously dying because people didn’t value it. But I admit there are other types of intelligence. Without going over to Theory of Multiple Intelligences with g just one more, I give it some respect. Of course this was just a new way of talking about it. Earlier psychologists would just call these other intelligences, talents or gifts or something like that.
But Yes, Blacks have street smarts. And they remember what happened a few generations ago – something Whites have largely lost. Needless to their emotional intelligence is abysmal as well in terms of interacting with others. But their Tribalism will serve them well in what is coming.
“or the fat guy on the couch amid crumbs of white (ha!) cheddar popcorn, screaming at the talking heads on TV, his $ in bitcoin”
That’s an unfortunate generalization, Rulo. And an incorrect one. I don’t know what led you to the conclusion of shoehorning in the equation of “White trash” with “his $ in bitcoin”.
Bitcoin is the only answer for the “little person”, irrespective of race, creed, or colour.
Fiat is dead. After a tremendously ‘bumpy’ ride, to employ a gross euphemism, bitcoin (not the full basket of cryptocurrencies, which will be as useless as fiat, and eventually gold) will be the international medium of monetary exchange.
The citizens of El Salvador (nary a White, fat, cheddar-munching couch potato among them) have already seen their net worth increase by 40% in the very short time that the enlightened leader there has transferred the national currency to bitcoin.
The rest of Latin America will shortly follow that lead. Columbia is set to go soon after that. Other countries, as well.
$900 trillion dollars available in world assets, most of that coming from international bonds (debt). Only $1 trillion so far in bitcoin, and rising fast.
Bitcoin is the great equalizer. Completely decentralized. God bless the White fat popcorn muncher and the bedeviled El Salvadoran.
Soul,
I’m sorry if you – a very intelligent contributor to this forum – felt included in a generalization. But of course you understand this is an open forum for ideas, so let’s discuss them.
First (a detail): white trash don’t live in McMansions but in trailers (trailer trash being an equivalent derogatory term); bitcoin is certainly not the answer to the “little person”, like my dear white trash friends Tommy and Stevie. First, they need to have beer, smokes, weed, gas. Second, food (covered by SNAP, so there goes the “only blacks are on welfare” canard). Third, there’s no third. No $ left. Bitcoin? Hm, a digital currency, gotta have an email address for that, right, can’t they garnish past due child support, taxes, traffic fines etc from that? Nah, I’ll take cash.
For the record, dear friends, I’m not embellishing or making a point. Lived at my property in a (cough) trailer I had in the back a long time. Call themselves white trash, myself damn wetback spic. All good.
Fiat is dead, yes.
I was making the point of trusting anything digital at this point. Digital is what they’re trying to use to herd us into compliance. Digital is one EMP incident away from a great re-set. Digital is what got us in trouble in the first place, digital and hyper complexity. Digital BC is as bad a digital Fed $ creation. Unlimited digital $ means no limits to plundering the world, to paying whatever it costs to eat the last oceanic tuna or have the last tiger skin for a rug. It’s all bytes anyhow.
Certainly the kind of blacks that are often discussed here, not the middle class blacks, but the ones used to living somewhat apart from laws and conventions know this. Because they’re smart, as Hereward was saying. Never mind the IQ. They’re smart. They may have a tiktok under an alias to watch some ass grinding or whatever, but their $ is well away from screens. Smart.
You give me the vapors with the trillions figures. Yeah, that’s what the world needs. More digital $.
It so happens I have some dear Salvadoran friends who lived here a long time, organic farmers, and recently went back there, to the old coffee plantation. Yep, white cheddar both, and I miss them terribly. I’ll ask them how that bitcoin experiment is going over there, but they’ll probably answer me this way:
“We don’t care. We have all we need: land, water, friends, weapons, materials, skills to grow food and fix things”. It’s how I feel, too. I don’t want no damn stocks. Or BC. Or Tesla. I want food, water, shelter, ammo, friends, skills. A bit of PM if all else fails, my bank acct gets seized or hyperinflation eats it, and county still wants property taxes paid. That’s it. But what do I know.
Rulo,
I’ll go by paragraph:
(1) I was sticking up for the White trash caricature you made. I don’t recognize myself at all in that invention
(2) Yes, I’ll concede that minor point. I’ll change that from “White trash” to “White, lazy, entitled suburbanite”. But that McMansion-dwelling caricature is even more of an invention since those bloated residences are going the way of fallen aluminum siding, tanking fiat “value”, and, depending on the neighbourhood, an attraction for burglars and shakedown artists.
You DON’T need a digital address for bitcoin, rulo. By this comment alone, you’ve proven that you know next to nothing about the topic. I’ve put in over three hundred hours on studying the world of bitcoin, and I’ve hardly even peeped down the rabbit hole yet. It has been, in its thirteen years, inviolate from attack, become even more secure through that time, and is/will continue to be impossible for TPTB (or just your average criminal) to find out out if you even have an account, let alone how much is in it your digital wallet, let alone have a way of busting into it. Yes, people have lost all their digital bitcoin before, and it’ll continue to happen, but in over 99% of the cases, it’s human error, mostly from people not securing and separating out their password(s), or using sketchy third party digital online exchanges. Education on safety prevents this.
Your cash is now losing 20% – 24% per year in inflation (the official inflation numbers are increasingly laughable in their downplaying of this, for many reasons, but think, first, CPI (consumer price index) which the gov’t doesn’t include in 3 of the 4 categories of higher end purchases (housing, cars, education, insurance, medical, etc) that most people need. Those costs are skyrocketing, and the exponential and corresponding inflationary “adjustment” is staggering. No level of “saving” overcomes that. And of course, hyperinflation will make these levels of inflation look like nothing by contrast.
(para 5) Again, your use of “digital” is very loose and completely inaccurate. Yes, CBCD is terrifying. It is so because it’s controlled by the central bankers, tied to the social credit system. Bitcoin, again, is completely decentralized. It is the only means of saving where it is hidden from TPTB. Even gold and silver didn’t do the trick, and gold’s proven itself to be compromised during its history as tied in by national govt’s throughout the 20th century.
All new monetary inventions go through the same stages: aesthetic tokens, crude bartering objects, stores of value, and, if organically successful, widespread means of trade and exchange. In thirteen short years (nothing, in the scope of human history) bitcoin’s already successfully solidified in stage three, with burgeoning and quick escalation into stage three, though that’ll still take 10-20 years or so (again, nothing in the grand scheme of things). It is the only economic invention in history to ace all 7 major components of an effective vehicle for monetary exchange.
You also mention “unlimited digital”. Once again, your knowledge of bitcoin is lacking. It’s OK, most don’t get it, but don’t make assumptions. One of bitcoin’s many genius components is that there are only 21 million bitcoins that will ever be ushered into existence. It’s a finite resource, and so can never be inflated, or made into preferential sub-categories. “Well, what about those who won’t hold any after they’re gone?” goes the retort. One: there’s plenty of time to get on board. Two: at that point, it will be the sole international medium of meaningful exchange (I of course don’t include small one-on-one services or products for bartering trades which are useful and will always be with us). IOW, those not saving any will have to work for it. Then they can exchange their own bitcoin for other goods. Exactly as fiat was supposed to make exchange convenient (if you can look past all its other inherent problems which we’re all now familiar with).
“You give me the vapours …” Nothing to do with bitcoin. I used that for illustrative purposes. $900 trillion is, of course, an inflationary figure, based on CDOs, swaps, all debt instruments, and will continue to go up exponentially during hyperinflation. In the future, all that meaningless digital hocus-pocus will be reset, and price discovery will be transparent. My point was that those stores of assets are still huge, and that bitcoin’s current share of market share is next to nothing by contrast.
Cheers.
Soul,
that was an education, and I thank you for it. You’re right, I know next to nothing about blockchain. I now know a bit more.
However, the economic ideas I tried to roughly sketch in my comment remain my belief. From the basic to the complex:
– With tremendous pressure on every resource, and especially energy, why would I trust a medium of exchange, or of saving, that depends 100% on a plentiful, reliable, affordable source of energy?
– Not to speak of the internet – again, required to be plentiful, reliable, etc, for the medium to work at all. You say gov’t cannot mess with your bitcoins. Maybe. But they can sure mess with your internet access. Not just the gov’t. Don’t we see a wall of censorship every time we open it to try and find out what’s the news? Is it far fetched to imagine “problematic” IP addresses like those of everybody here will be denied access at some point?
– Faith in technology comes in many flavors. We routinely criticize those who “trust the science” when it comes to the jabs here. How is it different to do the same regarding BC? More urgent, is faith in technology justified? I could say that excessive, over-complex technology is exactly the factor that has gotten us into the uncomfortable corner we’re in now. Automation. AI. Industrial farming, agrochemicals, GMO’s that allowed for overpopulation, along with advances in vaccine science. Alienation, lack of connection to the real world. Pollution! That’s a big one. Outsourcing. Frustration from having to talk to a robot or someone in Bangalore every time you have a tech problem. Unemployment. Drug and booze fueled despair. Electronic addictions. Surveillance. I can go on.
– Some of those cons may not apply to BC, but others certainly do, to that medium and to the electronic universe in general – pollution is one. They lie every time they say “go green, go digital”. Massive server farms. E-waste.
– I’m not convinced it’s wrong to generalize and lump all digital $ together. So much imaginary wealth is being created, it has to go somewhere – DJIA, nasdaq, or yes, bitcoin. In fact, Wall St has a new love affair to replace carbon credits, and it’s BC. $ begets $ begets $ – not tied to any measurable goods, services, improvements, or anything else in the real world. Anything good, at least. Hasn’t the current Pope made a statement like “$ is the excrement of the devil”? I know, what’s the Pope have to do with all this – and I don’t like him, either, I add. But other than moving from one screen to another, what’s all that $ do? Gobble up resources. Pay for new suburbia plonked on what remains of viable farmland. Pay for whale steaks at fancy Jap restaurants. Pay for stolen elections.
– I agree about inflation and the CPI. We all do our best to hedge against it. Stock up on supplies, materials we know we’ll need. Or get BC. Or many other things. Invest now, because it will be gone tomorrow. I get it.
– Inviolable and digital don’t belong in the same sentence. Your email is “private”. Social media “doesn’t track you”. If you turn off your GPS or your camera, “they’re off”. This or that https site is “unhackable”, “firewall protected”. Free speech is “guaranteed”. Information is “verified”. Bull. Mr Snowden revealed that beyond any doubt, Assange, others. They paid a heavy price for what? So we remain complacent? So we trust digital?
– Over complexity (and the system, the medium you describe may be the textbook example of it) is not just overrated – it’s bound to fail. Things are held together with baling wire and duct tape for now, but we have trouble putting chickens in supermarket shelves, we have trouble getting car parts or getting an electrician to come fix our power box, and you say you put your faith in a system with many more layers of “can go wrong” than producing a sack of potatoes? I don’t think so. I appreciate the education, but it only makes me more convinced I wouldn’t touch the thing with a long pole.
That said, nobody really knows, we can arrive to conclusions based on our own thinking, and you may be right, I may be wrong.
Hoo hah, Stupid Stereotype alert!
Rulo:
” white trash don’t live in McMansions but in trailers ”
“white trash” is not an income tranche.
And, MQ,
It ‘s not only “ueber-educated” white rushing to get jabbed.
Very/somewhat/slightly/not-at-all are all rushing to get jabbed.
The whole “soulful black vs. shallow, uebereducted white” is another stereotype that has been exploited by Hollywood.
Rulo, thanks for the great questions and comments.
“With tremendous pressure on every resource, and especially energy, why would I trust a medium of exchange, or of saving, that depends 100% on a plentiful, reliable, affordable source of energy?”
Bitcoin mining, as of now, is much less fossil fuel intensive than is the equivalent FF use in digitally maintaining the mind-boggling fiat system. The technicalities to this can fill hundreds of pages, are dry as dust, I obviously don’t want to detail them all here, and I doubt you’d want to read them (though you can go down that rabbit hole if so inclined). And when the last bitcoins are mined (estimated around 2040), the mining, unlike gold and silver, is closed forever.
Furthermore, you have to look at bitcoin in a comprehensive context. Your focus, like others new to it, concentrates on a few broad questions, not realizing all the components or revolutionary change. To wit:
Think of the incredibly wasteful fossil fuel use involved in fiat world. Bitcoin not only wipes out central control, but central power in any form. Want to purchase raw milk in Canada? Illegal. Because of the powerful dairy industry which lobbies gov’t, which the fed gov’t here then subsidizes, giving them the further perks of monopolies over independent farmers who challenge their pasteurization business model. Without central power over them (in bitcoin world), any passionate entrepreneur with a patch of land and some Holsteins can supply the local community with raw milk. Hence: healthier foodstuffs, plus less miles involved in shipping milk long(er) distances, and then to sit in plastic containers for weeks for customers to also drive to pick it up.
I could give hundreds of other examples, in many different areas, but it’s something that gets easier to explore more fully once the avenues are easier to spot.
“You say gov’t cannot mess with your bitcoins. Maybe. But they can sure mess with your internet access.”
Again, this has to be seen as a revolutionary change.
This globalist tyranny will end (after great suffering and death), the perpetrators, whether glorified bagmen like Fauci, or the shadow players behind him and other bagmen and women (media, Woke Uni profs, Karens, Hollywood stars, Antifa, etc etc etc) killed or jailed or neutered, and fiat will be inflated all the way to TrES-2b before collapsing forever into the mists past the Milky Way.
At that time, the world will be unrecognizable. Central authority will be gone. Some countries, maybe many, will be disorderly based on tribal conflict, idiocy, and local power plays, like in 1400s Eastern Europe or sporadic African clashes. Bitcoin doesn’t solve moral failings and stupidity. But many other areas, after a much more organic population plummet, will thrive since true capitalism will reign. That is, economic subsistence, if not wealth, will be tied to hard work and MERIT, and providing needed services and products for which bitcoin’s transparent price discovery will make clear and fair. (Obviously, I’m not a wholesale anti-technocrat as is JHK, but I believe his WMBH is a lot closer to the future truth than the Jetsons model).
To return more directly to your last quoted entry above, any ‘contolling’ group will be very small, entirely local, and just as on board with bitcoin as the general population.
Already, we see major national players — gov’t congress-critters, no less — sympathetic to bitcoin. Just wait until the sovereign wealth funds and oil countries (Putin?) have bitcoin as their reserve currency. Again, they can’t confiscate it, manipulate it, inflate it, destroy it, or find out who has it, including how much, and how to surveil it ala CBCD. Even Jack Dorsey, that censorious globalist prick, is a bitcoin enthusiast, and you can trade in services in some fashion on twitter using bitcoin,.but those big players (Elon Musk is another) have no more inherent advantage in bitcoin acquisition and control than does Joe and Jill operating a corner store in Podunk (other than, of course, starting out with a shit-tonne more fiat to begin with).
This is already too long, so I’ll just conclude with a general comment from further down your post: fossil fuel use, as anyone here who follows JHK’s writings should know, isn’t about total elimination. What with population cratering and the resulting demand destruction, more efficient use of the remaining FFs, the return to JHK’s local community structure(s), and the elimination of fiat theft and money-printing which stimulates the colossally wasteful fossil fuel projects (war machine, “green” revolution stimulus for Big Pharm, Chinese ghost city construction, etc etc etc,), there will be plenty of fossil fuel/electricity remaining to power up personal computer and iPhone use for everyone who wants one.
Yes, the Irish were called Blacks but in fact they were White. And the ones over here greatly resented being called that or being drafted to fight over the Blacks in the Civil War.
The Irish of Ireland have gone completely woke of course. A few years ago the idiots were relishing the movie slogan: The Irish are the Blacks of Europe. And Dubliners are the Blacks of Ireland. Now Dublin is full of Blacks and Black gangs – real ones from Africa. The native Irish are being savaged, stomped, raped, etc as always happens.
I couldn’t find any stats showing that Ireland is suffering an uptick in black gangs or individuals stomping, raping or savaging the Irish people. Would you be so kind as to provide some proof on that? Thanks.
I was going to send you somewhere but it’s been scrubbed. It might not have satisfied you anyway. A lot of countries don’t keep racial stats. If you’re a French citizen, you’re French. End of story. Like that. Thus the racial or Muslim nature of the crimes are hidden.
OK, Jarek, so how would you know about these stats if those countries don’t keep track of race?
Norway keeps some. Malmo has one of the highest levels of rape of any city in the world. Norway (unlike Sweden) admits it’s because of the immigrants, but says it has a duty to keep taking them in no matter what.
Beyond the stats, people all over Europe report their nations are no longer safe, no longer their own, there are hundreds of “no go” areas for the native French, even the police, all over France. And every year or so they engage in massive riots and car burning. Surely you’ve seen this in the news. Gang rape was almost unknown in modern Western Europe. It is now a thing because of the Muslims.
I’ll leave it to you. You’re not going to believe anything if your disordered will doesn’t want to. So if you want to look into, start with Norway.
Jarek,
so they were right about blacks, wrong about Irish. Get it. What’s the status on dogs?
On hordes of Arabs and Africans ravaging Europe’s cities, I agree with you. Mary, that is indeed a thing. And it is heavily suppressed in the media. Kind of like here a bit, when you know a criminal’s race only when he’s white, because those are the only mugshots published. But much worse. A heavy wall of silence.
That’s part of why France’s Michel Houellebecq is such a controversial author. For tackling this issue head on. Unfiltered. And we still have access to his books because of his immense talent, that has won him every literary award in France against the active opposition from the establishment. Talent cannot be denied. He also tackles the massive damage done by transhumanism, by new age and the baby boomers’ hedonism, by depravity, and yes, by feminism, although his idea of it is much different from yours or mine, Mary, but worth reading. Don’t miss that author. You like strong, intense books – you will not be disappointed. Or you, Jarek.
“Mary, that is indeed a thing. And it is heavily suppressed in the media. ”
Rulo, why do you push this? I haven’t opined about it one way or the other.
This is what happens when you listen to Jarek’s lies. I would suggest you vet everything he says. He likes to twist everything.
You are aware that until relatively recently, places in Britain had signs warning “No blacks, no dogs, no Irish”, right?
Get me my Irish reparations.
In los angeles, there were lots of ‘no children no pets’ allowed if you intend to rent here.
He actually thinks that a negative slogan like that from the past, is some kind of valid argument. See, they equated the Irish with Blacks. So the Blacks are fine.
Too bad your ancestors were too lazy to pick their own cotton.
But they were and now you have to deal with the results.
Maybe admit that everyone here, no matter how they got here, should have a job at a living wage.
Most excellently stated, Paula.
Nicely said, Rulo.
This is like the guy ,”who goes camping and it always rains on him although it can proved it doesn’t rain on him any more than any other camper”, he always gets the short end of the stick and the small piece of pie. And we give it him , thats what he deserves. And the other who doesn’t see slight irregularities about anything or is never taken advantage of, he gets what he deserves with a better quality of life.
Some people see ,’the trace element of scorn in bedrock of wellness.”

We, who lasting marble seek….
“It begins to look like the 2021 elections put a decisive end to the Woke-Jacobin-Progressive reign-of-terror”, etc, from today’s post.
A year ago we were talking about fraud.
No paper trail votes, hacking, manipulating, results looking one way and completely different in the morning. Not to speak of media propaganda, censorship and so on.
Now, we’re saying elections are our best friend? Am I reading all this right?
What is different now than a year ago? Not a contrarian – I’m interested in other points of view.
Because I just don’t trust the system anymore. I don’t trust these periodical “let’s vote the bums out” kabuki sessions. “Finally! good riddance, McDonalds! It’s Burger King time, bitches!”
What worked well for a polis, and still works well for small towns and knitting clubs, and maybe for Switzerland, certainly doesn’t work at all for this Leviathan.
It could be that while some fraud is built into the system, the numbers can sometimes be so overwhelming as to override it. But then, what about media power, corporations, intelligence agencies, tech, finance? Are they not a factor, the only factor really? Do they ever get pushback? Do they ever lose?
I think it’s more productive to walk away. Focus on food, water, friends, family, our local communities. Be prepared for the end of the fat years, and for a “world made by hand”.
I may be completely wrong, but I am guessing that JHK is referring to how the results show that people are rejecting Jo Jo Magoo and his agendas, due to the unexpected Republican wins.
In this climate, I am very surprised any Republicans won. That tells me that it’s likely that they can’t fix EVERY election or perhaps they can only fix the national. Or this time, people stood watch at the polling places so that they couldn’t put the ‘fix’ in.
Mary, I hope you’re right. I’d move a finger for a few politicians: my governor DeSantis if I feel he needs it, Rand Paul. Back in the day, I’d support leftie types like Sanders or Kucinich (not anymore). But overall… ugh.
Same. I even campaigned for Kucinich. SIGH.
I did too, Mary, and all it got me was a place on the DNC mailing list.
Somehow they still have my phone number. I have had to reply “Let’s Go, Brandon!” to a few campaign texts recently.
LOL!
“how would you know about these stats if those countries don’t keep track of race?”, Mary, is this the question you were referring to before?
Yes.
Mary,
OK. Fair enough. Yes, to a large degree that information is heavily censored. But there’s acts so horrific that even the BBC or Le Monde or indeed every media in the world have to cover: Samuel Paty’s beheading, Charlie Hebdo, the Bataclan rock concert massacre, etc.
You go from there to smaller media. It helps if you can read other languages. You read local sources and find lots of brutality that won’t make it to BBC: knifings, rapes.
Then you have personal contacts. I have several friends and relatives in Europe. So I can glean some information from them in Berlin or Ravenna.
Then you have an author like Houellebecq, who as I explained, cannot be silenced because he’s very talented and has won many literary prizes in France, which over there mean he’s a sort of sacred cow with a large following.
Please note I’m not talking here about white supremacy sites. I’m talking info from more or less neutral sources. That’s why I know that in the case of black & Muslim violence inflicted upon regular Europeans, Jarek is basically right, although he may twist or manipulate this to his own ideology, as he usually does. But basically he’s right, there’s something going on there, a trend.
I don’t know anyone in Ireland, or haven’t looked into that particular case, but assumed, since it’s a part of Western Europe, and has opened her borders, it may be a similar situation.
I hope you find this answer and we can leave this behind. As always, I could be wrong, but this is just my 2¢
Glad you’re starting to come around to the Truth: Diversity destroys social capital. Real nations are comprised of one People and one Culture.
I’d like to think I’m at least partially responsible for your awakening. But I know it could be from a many influences – or just the Truth impinging upon your own mind. We aren’t completely dependent on external stimuli after all.
No one comes around to your way of thinking except malthuss, but he seeems to already thinks that way as well.
Yep, that’s doable. The right scale.
“… the Woke race module, namely Critical Race Theory, the principle that American society is hopelessly and systemically racist and that white people need to be punished for it.”
Demonizing a segment of a nation’s population has long been the operation of choice for tyrants and evil-doers. It aims to take one’s eyes off the offending parties and on to some group that is out-of-favor with the ruling autocrats and their delusions of godhood and their fear of being exposed for the scumbags that They are.
In America, the first out-of-favor class was of course the Native Americans that had the audacity to actually live here first. How rude of them! Let’s take their land! Let’s call them names!
Then it became the sidelining and abuse of others with different skin tones. Your skin has a different shade from mine? What were you thinking! Again, how rude of you!
Then it became certain ethnic groups out of Europe who had the very poor manners to actually to come from different political subdivisions within the same general region of the Globe. How could They do such a thing!
And now, white folks are the New Demonized Class. It’s getting hard to find a white face on television commercials, series programs, news programs, etc. Instead of having proportional representation of the various groups on America’s public airwaves (oh, the horror!) apparently we now have to make amends for four hundred years of history (that today’s white folks had virtually NOTHING TO DO WITH in creating racial inequities), we are treated to a steady flow of certain skin tones and minority sexual preferences.
Yes, we all have a seat at the table. But must it be all the seats now just for some?
In a perceptive Michael Jackson song, he sings, “I’m not gonna spend my life BEING A COLOR”.
Martin Luther King Jr. knew the folly of ordering a society and parceling out power and personal and group respect based upon different… skin tones.
God’s critters out in nature do NOT discriminate against member of THEIR OWN KIND due to differences in hide or feather tone. No, it takes Intelligent Humankind to come up with something that brilliant.
It is NOT the place of State-sponsored indoctrination centers (also known as schools) to point fingers at any group of people and call them the source of all of Life’s problems and to make this part of the ordered curriculum. If you can’t teach history without that much bias and always tilting the table so it isn’t even for all, then close the damn building down and quit ruining the minds of children. And please refund our tax money for non-performance.
A wise One once said, “Let the one who is without sin cast the first stone”. Wise words, indeed.
But not so wise apparently for everyone in Public Education and Woke and Cancel Culture who spend ALL DAY throwing stones all around at others while pumping out their own chests and claiming to be morally superior and without sin.
Maybe if we quit finding ways to beat each other up and tear each other down, we MIGHT YET have a future as a human family. But don’t expect to see that made a part of Government Education curriculum any time soon. There’s too much money to be made and Woke Capital to be amassed in the dehumanizing of others.
If They get their way, we’ll ALL spend the rest of eternity just Living A Color. Guess we’ll never be as smart as God’s critters out in the wild.
Well said.
Breaking us down into ever-smaller categories and those categories into categories is completely engineered. It’s total bollox.
Spot on, Shaman. Good comment.
Pretty silly shit: Red ant colonies will fight other red ant colonies of the same species, Chimp groups other chimp groups of the same sub-species, Lion prides other Lion prides of the same sub-species – what to speak of hyenas or other big cats. Chimps hunt and kill monkeys – the bigger monkeys will fight back. Ants fight all other ants, of whatever color and species as well as termites, etc.
Life is War. As the ambassador to the Austro-Hungarian Empire said to the Czar, “We are allied to a corpse” – killed by diversity. Putting ants of different species in the same colony.
This is close to the same argument the trans use to prove men can become women.
“Well, clownfish change sex!”
There are also animals that help each other, interspecies. Such as beavers providing muskrats homes in the winter, for which they pay ‘rent’, or coyotes teaming up with badgers to hunt, etc.
Ok, I’ve heard about cooperation in nature, though not those two examples. But I was rebutting his idea of human brotherhood using animals as an example.
It’s just grotesquely wrong. You can see that I assume. But will you dare say it? The feminine mode of thought is to find exception to every rule so as to counteract men. Imagine Alba teaching: What color are leaves? One eager boy raised his hand, Green he says. Alba triumphantly holds up a blackish leaf (what color are those called?) Oh really, she says? Is this green?
You like counter punches like this I’m afraid. After being by raised and taught by women, it’s amazing men aren’t worse than they are. It has to end. Women give birth to boys. Men give birth to men. We’ve got to get boys away from women teachers one way or another.
You’re doing it again. Making assumptions of what I see, when that’s not what I have seen. You don’t know what I ‘see’ because you don’t have access to my thoughts.
You also don’t know what I like or don’t like. So your entire comment is ridiculous and based on your own bizarre brand of ‘reasoning’. I agree with nothing you’ve said here and find it laughable. For the record.
I didn’t mention you Mary Mary. I mentioned Alba. Oops!
Women sometimes have trouble maintaining boundaries with each other, the call of the group mind is so strong. So I understand and forgive you….
No, you responded to me, so I am responding to what you said to me.
You obviously weren’t talking to GA. you were using her in a bizarre example.
Are you really that confused? Here. Let us break it down. Who is “you” if not me?
“It’s just grotesquely wrong. You can see that I assume. But will you dare say it? The feminine mode of thought is to find exception to every rule so as to counteract men. ”
I disagree with this and I do not see that.
“You like counter punches like this I’m afraid.”
No, I don’t. Again, you don’t know what I like or don’t like, unless I tell you. And I haven’t.
Jarek, you’ll have to pardon my French but could you please just sod off, you irritating, drivel-spewing numpty.
Mary Mary: Never mind you and your issues. Let’s get back to the issue at hand: I assume you accept my premise that animals are always fighting each other, contra Roundball’s absurd assumption to the contrary. I assume that’s why you tried to counter my examples with your exceptions to the Norm, namely cooperation.
I accept of course the idea of a balance in nature, with all things working together in that larger sense. But part of the balance is the war between different groups with a species or between species for resources. And of course the whole dynamic of predator/prey or males within a species competing or fighting for mates.
Again, Jarek, no, I don’t agree with you or your silly animal analogy. That’s why I posted the clownfish/trans agenda comment, which yours reminded me of.
I also agree with Alba that you’re a drivel-spewing numpty. 🙂
@GA – hahahahaha!
Alba does have a way with words that wins her fans.
As for you: If you don’t know about the warfare that is nature, you obviously have spent very little time studying, either through books or out in it with your own eyes. Total fail.
Or are you lying just to get at me? How utterly disrespectful of yourself that would be…..
@Jarek, no one needs to showcase you, you’re seen for what you are all on your own.
“The feminine mode of thought is to find exception to every rule so as to counteract men.” Actually, the reason women contradict men is because they are always saying stupid shit. My policy has always been to ignore the as much as possible.
E.g., a number of years ago I was in the car with two of my daughters and an erstwhile boyfriend, who was driving us home. He took a different route that we normally drove, and my daughter asked him why. He said, “You don’t have to drive as far on gravel if you go this way.” Actually the route he was taking involved driving about five times as far on gravel. I maintained silence, as I knew from decades of experience that men are pretty much all retards, and that it is useless to try to enlighten them.
My daughter, who was about 13 at the time, pointed out that he would be driving much further on gravel this way. Due to being female, she was already able to think and reason–a capability that nature seems to have denied the menfolk.
Here is a riddle for you. See if you can figure it out.
Once when I told my ex that the kids needed new school clothes, he said, “Why do they need new clothes every year? I wear the same clothes for years.”
So why is it that children need new clothes all the time and adults don’t? Men don’t know. But perhaps if you really apply yourself you can figure out why this is and see why women might be compelled to contradict men, when the retardation gets too far off the charts.
@ Jarek:
Women contradict men because most men are so effing stupid that one gets the impression they are subhuman.
Best to exclude them from your life as much as possible and, when this is not possible, to ignore them. Correcting them is like trying to teach algebra to a cat. Occasionally, it is necessary to correct them when they are making poor decisions that affect you and others. But since they are unable to think and reason, the only workable method is the carrot/stick method you would use to train your dog. Their verbal skills are only slightly better than your dog’s. They cannot understand verbal communication and have a hard time expressing themselves verbally.
Ant: Wow, you really are a vicious hater. Glad I was able to bring it out. When one shines the light into the well, all snakes and frogs come up and out. Let the healing begin.
I read a great book about women like you in the church called Ungodly Rage or something. Traditional woman traveled around under cover to see what Woman Church was all about. She was sickened. And few would believe her, so bad was it. Wiccans embedded in nunneries and orders, mocking the laity who fund their lifestyles. Pope Benedict moved to investigate them, but they didn’t cooperate. They were probably clued into the coming coup. Once Benedict was forced out, the investigation was cancelled.
and birds that are cuckhold know to get meat for those kind of babies and vegetables for those kind of baby birds.
But over all, I see a lion [on utube] kill a gazelle while the gazelle is birthing.
Yeah, good idea if she doesn’t know about animal combat. Go to youtube, Mary. A good one is: Eternal Enemies of the Night – the endless war between lions and hyenas.
Yeah I know nothing about animal combat.
LOL.
@Mary
Where did you read/hear that coyotes and badgers cooperate in hunting?
I’m curious as I’ve never witnessed it and I’ve lived among both. Badgers are relatively rare in most parts and are ferocious sounding, angry little shits. I would never have guessed that they have any friends.
~toktomi~
I didn’t read it, I saw it. One of those night cameras caught them getting together under a protected wildlife underpass. Great stuff. you might be able to google it.
“There are also animals that help each other, interspecies. ”
MMFP,
Symbiosis is not cooperation.
actually a young male lion, having killed off the pride leader, will kill off the former leaders cubs, even the female ones.
In fact, Jarek, red fire ants, aka Argentinian ants (damn, that’s one insect I hate to be associated with. Mean, bad mofos, really evil here in the South, and expanding their range every year, you’ll meet them soon), anyway, the best way to combat them, since pest control products soon get resistance built and become useless (there’s a vaxx analogy here, I’m sure), is you take a shovelful of ants from one pile, dump it on a different pile. Voilá, a formic Colosseum. Watch the little shits kill each other for hours. Exactly the same species and sub-species.
Come think of it, Hister, the ultimate human red ant, killed a lot of whites, a whole lot of them. His same species and sub-species: French, Belgians, Italians, Russians, Poles, etc.
The problem as I see it is that we don’t all have a seat at any table.
We are playing a sick game of Musical Chairs, and the chairs are being deleted at a rapid rate.
I see no reason that we can’t just divided up the work necessary to provide a modest but decent standard of living for everyone among everyone capable of working.
Then we wouldn’t have to squabble over who is most deserving of a chair.
In other words, give minorities the White Patrimony. Equity. Communism. What AOC wants. No more suburbs. No more White anything. No more separation. Whites who don’t like it, disappear.
Paula, “We are playing a sick game of Musical Chairs, and the chairs are being deleted at a rapid rate.” Yes.
Jarek, I think the musical chairs analogy or metaphor applies to all of us, of any color. The resources are indeed disappearing fast.
In great part due to the suburbs lifestyle, the American Way of Life Dick Cheney said it’s non-negotiable!
Have you read JHK’s books? In fact, he clearly stated the suburbs must go. Does that make him a race traitor, in your view? Maybe not stated right… perhaps you don’t consider him of “your” race… you know… but plenty of kikes, and blacks, and Armenians and all kinds of people in the suburbs, right? So maybe yes, race traitor after all, in your view.
Ever considered it’s not about the race, but the clip resources are being depleted? Ever thought about the author’s deep ideas, or did you get stuck in the “they wear their pants low and can’t speak proper English part”?
Sure, resources. Next question: Who gets them? Generic people? Only White cosmics think like that. Right back to reality, right? We both think the same. I admit it. You won’t.
And if Israel needed men, you’d be there, right? If so, I admire you as I do, Akmo. You guys have a real Homeland. We no longer have ANY!
Jarek,
we think the same on some things, but the gaps are larger than the bridges and we could never agree. Who gets the resources? That’s the question of the age, and warrants lots of thinking, lots of writing. One thing I suspect is the answer is not race. The white corporate CEO raping the Amazon or the South Atlantic is not my friend because he’s white. The black dude growing a field of collards a couple miles down the road is not my enemy because he’s black.
Israel may be Akmo’s homeland, as he’s Jewish, but certainly not mine. Just because I spent some time there and admired some parts of their society and thinking doesn’t make me Jewish. And I’ve already explained to you that there wasn’t a single Jew in my volunteer corps, just Danes, Britons, a Spaniard, an Aussie, an Argie. Sometimes you only listen to yourself, or to your own mind, not to what others say.
Oh? Ok, tell me again, I missed it. Was it a Church group or something? Or some kind of work release program, a chain gang for non-Israelis in Israel?
Jarek,
Kibbutz. Farms. Communally owned. A big thing from the 50’s to the 80’s – already much diminished by the mid 90’s when I worked in one. But some may remain even today. Akmofo would know. They all accepted volunteers. Mostly European kids looking to have a fun time in the sun for very little $. In fact the farm would give you room, board, and a little pocket money in exchange for farm chores.
Not a bad way for a young man to see that part of the world. From there, Egypt, Lebanon are just a stone throw away.
Oh sure, I know about that. I’ve never heard of a non-Jew doing it though. Can’t say I’m convinced, but I suppose it’s possible. All kinds of things are happening that I don’t know about needless to say.
You’re a Catholic! Right. That’s why you said we’re all just animals. Cool story, bro.
It all just doesn’t add up. Your arguments are always against us and the needs of our People and their Nations. Always focused on the individual to go wherever they want irrespective of borders. You simply don’t respect them – at least not ours.
Musical Chairs? Ok, not imagine how a group working together to get seated could trounce isolated individual players. They could block an alien, allowing one of their own to get seated. Or a seated person could grab the chair and move it to their other side where one of their own is waiting.
No rules against it, right? The idea that musical chairs is a game for individuals is a presumption. It need not be that way – just like Capitalism need not be so and of course, isn’t.
@Paula
Wouldn’t it be nice if the world situation was as benign as musical chairs.

I’m not sure God’s critters don’t discriminate. I have an old cichlid tank. It started out with a lot of diversity- fish of all sizes, shapes, and colors. It’s a self-sustaining ecosystem, with baby fish regularly showing up. Invariably, when I see baby fish, an adult fish turns up dead. After many years, all the fish look the same and the aquarium never overpopulates. It senses its own limits. For tens of thousands of years, humans were roving, undiverse bands. Anyone outside the band was likely not trusted and driven out or murdered. Yes, we have brains, but we share 99% of our DNA with chimpanzees. It will probably take centuries, but multicultural, liberal democracy (MLD) doesn’t accord with how humans evolved. Mutual trust is critical to human group survival. Without trust, MLD seems destined to devolve into violence and separation, unless, before that happens, there is such universal miscegenation that every looks the same.
Mac,
we have forgotten we are animals. We think we have transcended that stage. We haven’t. We still eat, drink, mate, excrete, fight like animals. Ergo, we are animals, but unlike them, who as you illustrate with the fish tank example, never outgrow their resource base, their Lebensraum so to speak, we’re very crafty and very deluded and think we’re special and “limits to growth” to name the famous book of 50 yrs ago don’t apply to us. Wrong.
MLD – I don’t believe or trust any of those 3 words. Multikulti, liberal, democracy. None of them work, at least the way we understand them now.
As long as there is plenty, humans get along fine.
When scarcity comes along the fighting starts.
Apparently you are absolutely right that humans are unable to overcome our lower brains and try to come up with a rational and reasonable way out of our predicament.
I’m pretty sure that this virus/vaccine thing is the alternative plan.
Not sure I agree. People, and nations, who aren’t hungry murder all the time. In fact, primitive tribes took the opportunity of a full belly to attack their neighbors. Diversity + Proximity = Conflict. That is human history in a nutshell. My fish wanted to be among their own kind, and the dominant strain killed off all the rest.
“God’s critters out in nature do NOT discriminate against member of THEIR OWN KIND due to differences in hide or feather tone. ”
Not so sure about that.
Certainly there is huge competition with nests for scarce resources—food brought by parents. Bigger bird rolls smaller out of the nest.
There is also huge competition among siblings in human families for the family’s resources—often vicious, often disguised by passive aggressive behaviors.
There must also be recognition of feather color etc. in nature. Otherwise there would be no development of new varieties and then new species from the varieties.
PS. Ever heard of sucking hind tit?
In Nature, which includes human beings, any organism that can take without damaging itself will take.
I posted this upthread, but figured it might get lost. So here’s the verbotten (bad form) repost.

Actually, I do respond to valid commentary. It just seems around 75% of the posts are written by asylum inmates.
Anyway, I came up with the term thinkers as a substitute for leaders, elite, powers, etc. It’s wealth/power neutral, so that it incorporates a broad intellectual class who understand what is occurring.
Our host of course gets it, but he also enjoys the mental exercise putting pen to paper entails. So we get these political missives that act a bit like a strong cup of coffee.
As for transhumanism, that’s become a loaded term with negative connotations. To be honest, Arthur c Clark had it figured out before I was born: the true way forward is pure energy.
This suggests biological intelligence is merely a necessary step towards reaching full expression as time/space travelers.
Soooo, getting back to where we are today, if one were to draw an arc to what’s required to achieve our full potential, you can quickly see we have a major obstacle.
Yes, those pesky 7b useless eaters who are quickly consuming the critical resources needed to nurse humanity along until the zero point.
Now, to be clear, I don’t quite possess the necessary psychopathy that is essential to pulling off the great culling, but I certainly understand the motivations and objectives.
It just seems around 75% of the posts are written by asylum inmates.
I wonder…what did they think would be the eventual result when they started closing state sanitariums decades ago?
“Now, to be clear, I don’t quite possess the necessary psychopathy that is essential to pulling off the great culling …”
Aw, don’t be so self-deprecating. There’s still time for self-improvement. Or an assertiveness course. Or something.
I’m glad to see more people waking up to the broad vision of this anti-humanist (not trans-humanist).
Like the PTB trying to orchestrate our collective deaths, he doesn’t have the courage — though certainly the cleverness — to state his emotional bona fides and stepwise tactics.
Yeah, anti-humanist is more accurate than trans-humanist. Wake up. You’ll never transcend who you are: a man, born of a woman, mortal.
Indeed.

And I apologise on behalf of my iPad Mini’s spellchecker for the initial misspelling of your nom de plume. It seriously dislikes the double ‘s’ and will not give in.
GA, “I am being operated from behind by aliens. Or perhaps wizards. It’s difficult to specify on account of them being, y’know, behind me.”
I knew it!
Or wait, this could be not what I think you’re saying… operated from behind by aliens? Wait, what? You naughty girl, you… this is a family forum, don’t you know? Shame!
I’m not entirely sure what you are implying, Señor Deschamps.
I can assure you of the unambiguous family-friendliness of my comment.
Despite my occasional lapses into pithy argot, I am so vanilla that if I cut my finger, you would probably see tiny black dots. 🙂

Aha… Mitchell c is a damn transhumanism sympathizer…

full human potential involves a spear, a campfire, a hut, a tribe of 34 persons and 300 uninhabited acres of wilderness… the end.

~toktomi~
I actually agree with Rulo though… that some conscious, deliberate willing deceleration is possible by this global society…IF AND ONLY IF all people are skillfully convinced of the true situation and of the ACTUAL BEST POSSIBLE GOAL OF PROGRESS, which i believe to be a very low-population, primitive-economied arrangement.
Which is why i oppose any public education project that is half-assed or bunk…which includes just about every current such project on any side of the aisle.
Too harsh, mitchellc. And by the way, why in the world do you insist on insulting people like that, especially when painting with such a broad brush? Most of the people here are fed up and are understandably just venting. And finally, I’m not seeing you offering any viable alternatives either, other than everyone else is hysterical, while you yourself, are not. Very noble – possibly – but certainly not very uplifting, never mind productive.
By the way, you and I agree on most things, but your attitude/presentation is extremely off-putting, to say the least.
Dis, same here.
I’d say it’s the transhumanist psychopaths who belong in an asylum.
Mitchell,
I did indeed see your comment, and replied to it upthread. Many years without TV increased my attention span, so I have no problem going back and following up on thoughts I found interesting. Since you posted it again, here goes my reply again, in case it’s you who missed it.
fair enough. My 2¢ per paragraph #. Assuming you’re interested in another person’s view and not consider yourself the owner of the truth:
1- No, only about 25 to 50% depending on the week.
2- Maybe it’s not the complete term. The more accurate term, then, would be “right thinkers” – “bien pensants”, which is a loaded term too as it implies smug superiority. Many of us think. Yet don’t impose ghoulish agendas on the world. Perhaps the right term would be “gods” (small g). Or “kapos”. Or “mad scientists”. Or “false prophets”
3- Yes, a strong cup of coffee. Yes, he’s veered off of his forte and into petty politics. Meaningless politics, manipulated, irrelevant. Still a great writer. One day he’ll be back to acting, not reacting – setting up his own agenda, not dancing to the tunes of others. Or not.
4- A good author: “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”.
5- Hm, OK. Perhaps the only possible time – space travel is mystical, visionary, and to force us all into their understanding of that quest implies we don’t value our own time or space and, through technology, wish to transcend the dystopia we’ve created also through technology.
6- What is our full potential? My version: to be a race of kind philosophers. To be happy and wish all around us to also be happy. To live in harmony with Nature. To be rich because we need little, not because we have much. Other things too, but you get the idea. What’s yours?
7- Useless eaters doesn’t capture the whole idea. There’s a Kant and a Mozart among them, a man who makes his village happy with fireworks, a devoted mother who sacrifices all for her children, a joker, a guru, a man who talks to trees and the trees answer him, someone who pushes an old lady from the ongoing train and ends up under it himself. Useless? Who decides who’s useless? The “bien pensants”? Are they useful to anyone but themselves, under your definition? And what is the zero point? The singularity? OK, so I was right – you are a transhumanist. Not so unique, that. Brewed out of California’s witches’ cauldron along with New Age, political correctness, Manson cult, UFO cults, tech surveillance, plastic surgery, pop satanism and so many other Trojan horses. You may want to read Michel Houellebecq about all this I’m talking about. Plenty of English translations.
8- The only possible culling is not a culling – it’s a reduction in our numbers by methods both rational and humane. I’ve written posts about it here before in more detail, but you were not interested. In a nutshell: global consensus, education, economic incentives for sterilization, legal euthanasia for those who desire it, some forms of eugenics, a massive change in habits and expectations when it comes to consumption, a massive training of slum and city dwellers to become organic farmers and foresters, etc. You are correct a culling that involves deceiving and mass murdering people to preserve some “thinkers” prestige, status and use of whatever resources are left, would be pure psychopathy, and moreover, very bad mojo, very bad karma, for whoever tries to achieve it. Glad you’re not in that camp. Maybe it’s time we started talking about what I mentioned in the first part of this #8 answer, and not endorsing a “kill them all (you do it, I’m too chicken to do it myself… and please spare me, I supported you the whole time)” attitude.
Cheers!
Well done, Rulo.
You’re a good man and a splendid writer.
” a “kill them all (you do it, I’m too chicken to do it myself… and please spare me, I supported you the whole time)” attitude.
Haha, quite.
If our man is not psychopathic enough, what does he imagine they’d want him for? If he’s looking employment as a fixer, he needs to be prepared to break heads.
And they can easily find fully formed psychopaths – they don’t need one that still has to go to finishing school.
Huh, you said that JHK is “dancing to the tunes of others.”
Really?
Rulo, some of your writing is great.
But I wonder whether you realize how conceited and superior—verging on parental–you often sound.
You need to get off your lofty pedestal and come back down to earth.
Islander,
the original post I replied to talked about “political missives” acting like a strong cup of coffee. I interpreted as being 100% focused on a (to me) largely imaginary left-right divide, instead of “dancing to his own tune”, or “acting, not reacting” (presenting an original agenda instead of following the agenda setting of the media) – Mr K’s original agenda had to do with resource depletion, esp FF’s, and the use our society makes of those dwindling resources, and how it impacts the culture in many ways, and how they could be better utilized.
I can say what I’d like to see more of, and he can not give a damn, right?
As for conceited or superior, I assure you I come here to learn, not to teach. I read a lot more than I write. Writing is much easier for me than talking, has always been, sometimes I’m good at it, most times average, too lengthy, but never superior. Morally outraged sometimes, yes, frustrated, cranky, maybe. Never ever superior.
I will not apologize for presenting my ideas in the best way I can, contributing what I can to keep the conversation interesting. Why go to the lowest common denominator? That said, many here can present their points w more brevity and impact, but I do my best, because I like this forum.
Parental? Well, I am a parent, so maybe some of it rubbed onto my presentation. Again, not my intention.
In any case, I don’t mind your criticism, or anyone else’s. I’m not young, and I can keep my ego in check. I will think about why you, or some, perceive me as speaking from a pedestal, but that’s not my intention. I just try to contribute in the best way I can.
FYI, Rulo, I enjoy your writing and your thoughts.
I like political and environmental discussion much more than religious screeds, or flight-of-ideas, or bombastic insults. And you can be relied upon to give thoughtful ideas for discussion.
Luv your stuff Ru. Did you write about your kibbutz experience?
I never made it to Israel or Africa, silly me.
Think I got it: Jewish father, Gentile mother – so technically not a Jew. She’s a Catholic so he was raised that way, but he takes after his dad and it didn’t stick. He’s so Catholic that he’s always saying that we’re just animals. That kind of Catholic.
We have an animal PART.
Such matches are very common now, and there’s talk of opening up the identity to people like Rulo officially. Of course he refused to just come and out and tell me this making it sound like he just woke up in an Israeli work camp or something. Like I said, he takes after his Dad.
Jarek, it is pretty common for non Jews to work on a kibbutz.
I looked into it myself one time. Israel’s prohibitively expensive, so it’s one way to save some dough. Now of course I know we can stay at many monasteries and convents there, on a dime. Bike around the dead sea, (in january anyway).
What you”‘re saying sounds like crazy Mary, maybe worse.
And ru, I went too far the other day. Way too far. I’m really sorry.
We achieved our “full potential” in the 50s. Evidently. All downhill from there.

Muzzys are going to town in France, 3 Frenchies stabbed at a Cathedral in Nice (which I have visited, that very church) one of th victims, a woman, decapitated.
Some other Frenchies shot outside Paris.
Why now? Last week in the UK it was an MP stabbed to death also in a church, and in Norway a Muzzy convert killed 5 Norwegians with a bow and arrow. Just a coincidence?
Maybe a runup to COP26, an attempt to destabilize W Europe, radicalized Muzzys doing the ground work, taking the fight to the streets, hitting Whitey in their sacred spaces, whilst at Glascow, WEF, Davos, & UN Climate Changepounders, Freaks, activist climate cranks and Elitist Child Molesters hammering legacy Europe from high above.

There appears to be more to the David Amess case than meets the eye.
https://www.albawaba.com/node/how-killing-david-amess-connected-qatar-somalia-relations-1451284
It may well be more to do with international relations than a simple jihadi attack.
That is not an endorsement of anything else you describe. Just passing on pertinent information.
Interesting. In 2017 a white man killed 9 black people in a church. This was spun, of course, as a case of “white supremacy”, etc.
But the man had driven 100 miles, past many black churches, in order to go to a church in which a prominent state senator was worshiping. The white man had never shown signs of white supremacy before, but that day he decided to drive 100 miles to kill some black people.
Personally, I think it was an assassination, disguised as a hate crime. They killed two birds with one stone, so to speak, because they still use that crime as an example of evil white supremacist domestic terrorists, AND they got rid of an effective senator .
Wow Paula, I had forgotten about that one.
Oh, man, Jarek, you’re better than that. Zimmerman, a cosmic Great Man? Someone who follows a kid back from getting iced tea, a bit stoned, tries to bully him, gets his ass kicked and shoots the poor stoned, unarmed kid? That the best you got? A fat coward?
Zimmerman the hero. Pitiful, man. And you get mad when I tell you to go back to talking about Oriental and Catholic philosophy.
Trayvon attacked zimm and was murdered.
simple as that. Trayvon was a burglar.
wake up white fool [I assume u r white and never lived among nogs].
Malthus, I haven’t seen that reporting—that Trayvon was a burglar.
Even if he was, if he wasn’t attacking Zimmerman directly, Zimmerman has no “stand your ground” rights. Zimm should simply have called the police.
What was Zimm doing packing heat anyhow? From the story as I know it it sounded like Zimm was a wannabe vigilante looking for someone to “defend” the community against.
But perhaps that is not the whole story. Please do send more recent evidence.
Can you link?
I beleive zimm did call the police or security.
Trav had burglar tools in his locker at school.
he had been expelled from school.
he attacked zim with ‘die cracker or die honkey’.
He was casing out houses, going between them [trespassing].
Call the police. What a lamer you are. Trayvon was upon him, knocking him down, sitting astride him, banging his head against the pavement. When is he going to find time to call? Is Trayvon going to let him do that? Zim’s life was in Zim’s hands at that point. No one was going to save him but himself.
Grow up.
No link provided to story with this evidence.
Repetition does not constitute evidence.
Hence, I am doubtful that such evidence exists.
It IS on record that Zimmerman was in his car and called the police on a ‘suspicous person’ and they told him not to follow Trayvon, but he did anyway.
So he was in the wrong.
oriental is a non pc word, now.
He’s been magnificent. As the Trial commenced, you could see him growing. By the way, he’s mixed race. No one claims him. An utter mutt – just what the Elite say they wanted! His brother is as handsome as a god and speaks like a statesman, but the mantle of greatness fell on rolly poly George – and he has changed even physically in the carrying of it.
He’s part Black, and stood up for a Black homeless man who was being harassed by the police. So much for your preconceptions. And a Black Police Captain testified in the pre-trial that he knew George as a man of good character, and would consider his application to the Academy once he was out of debt. Btw, George isn’t a fool. He knows that dream and most others are over for him because of journalists and their influence over people like you.
Those who went after him post-trial went down in flames. Both an ex-girlfriend and a liberal who actually fired a gun at him because of some traffic altercation. He went to jail. George walked away.
Still the Man of Destiny, George rescued a white liberal family from a burning car. They recognized him and wouldn’t thank him. Scum. Anglin admires too. If we had a White Republic and offered to make an exception for him, he would turn us down. He has his own vision, one much like the one you profess to have. And I remind you, I never said that only Whites can be good or great. He is both.
What counts is what happened in the encounter with Trayvon.
Nothing else.
Encounter? attacked by a thug.
Also Trav had no right to be there, he wasnt on the lease, if I recall.
They want communities but not community policing. Does it make sense? No.
Our friends get to have their own Police – the Shomrim. Muslims in Europe get their own police by stoning the official police who come into their neighborhoods. But poor polite Whites aren’t high enough or low enough. Caught in the middle. Of course rich Whites get good official policing and/or can afford private security. It’s a class issue too, not just racial or ethnic.
The future is community policing. Islander, let go of the Leftist schtick and get with the times.
Islander, I agree. I’m open to evidence that in fact Zimm is not a bad guy, did help others, etc. But I thought we were talking about “that night”, not about his bio.
I’m aware than many of the black “martyrs” were in fact scumbags. Floyd, sure. Arbery, I’ve seen material about how he did have a jogger alibi and had in fact burglarized other houses. Trayvon, all I was able to find is that he was staying with friends or had a legitimate reason for being in that neighborhood, smoked some weed, went to the convenience for munchies, was not armed.
Jarek, Malth, if you have at least some evidence, even internet independent media – the Stormer is not independent, or Unz – they are as biased as Huffington or Slate, that Trayvon had burglar tools, was “casing homes”, and all you’re saying, please share. I’m not too proud to admit I’m wrong when I am.
The fact remains, a wannabe vigilante with an itchy trigger finger shot dead a kid who was not armed and no immediate danger to anyone. That’s cowardice.
Rulo? Itchy finger? More ignorance. Zim fired when he was on the ground getting his pounded against the pavement by a larger, stronger man. Baby Tray then reached for Zim’s gun. Zim trapped his hand and drew his gun, and shot him.
Got it? He didn’t reach, draw, and shoot even after he was knocked down and getting pounded. He reached, drew, and shot after Trayvon tried to take his gun.
Justice prevailed against all odds. Against Anti-White bigots like you who called him White to slander him and destroy him by associating him with the memes you have so “lovingly” created about White males.
The police told Zimmerman to stay in his car and not follow Trayvon.
That’s about all we need to know.
Jarek, here you go again. Did I call Zimm white? Go over my comments. I know he’s half Peruvian mestizo, half Jewish, I think.
I’m anti white? I create anti white memes? Give me an example of that. Always putting opinions in people’s mouths that they never uttered, your MO. In all my comments, I always say I’m proud of our achievements, I’m aware of our shortcomings but all the other groups also have skeletons in their closet, I demand respect but I’m willing to respect others, I say we need to work with allies because we’re such a tiny minority in danger of becoming global scapegoats we can’t afford the luxury of aloofness and pride. That’s my line, has always been. But you come here and tell me how I think, how anti white I am, etc.
I’m still waiting for you and Malthuss to give at least a shred of evidence Martin had burglar tools and was casing houses on that night.
As Islander said, it all comes down to the encounter. He attacked Zim knocking him to the ground. Got on top of him and began to pound his against the pavement. Reached for Zim’s gun. Zim trapped his hand as taught in a gun class. He then reached, drew and shot. No other option as Trayvon had revealed possibly deadly intent. That’s all you’re ever going to get. If you wait for certain knowledge in the mathematical or logical sense, you’re done for. Such knowledge is not give beforehand on the street, but only after the fact.
Nope. Zimmerman was told to stay in his car by the police and he decided to put himself and Martin at risk by not doing so.
It wasn’t his job to police Trayvon.
Still no proof Trayvon would have broken any laws, or had.
Are you all for crimethink being an arrestible or killable offense, Jarek?
@ MaryMary:
Zimmerman was part of a neighborhood watch. His decision to get out of his car and follow Trayvon was thus an action in the interest of hhis neighbors, whom he had reason to believe might be in danger. One has personal duties to the safety of others that supersede what the police might advise. In your view there is apparently something wrong with “putting himself at risk” to protect his neighbors from a potential criminal. He was not “putting Trayvon at risk” in any way I can see, by keeping an eye on him.
We have a neighborhood watch in my town. If they notice an unknown car driving slowly around town at night with the headlights off, they follow them. Or even if the unknown car does not have its headlights off, but is engaging in other suspicious behavior. You are saying that neighborhood watchers should not watch, and even implying that such an activity is somehow the equivalent of suborning someone to commit a crime, which is ridiculous.
Secondly, “proof Travon would have broken any laws” is irrelevant. The fact is, he DID break the law by committing an unprovoked and very violent assault against Zimmerman. The law does not require that we have psychic powers giving us foreknowledge of the future actions of someone behaving suspiciously, in order to watch them, according to the duties of being a member of a neighborhood watch group.
You are essentially saying that participating in a neighborhood watch justifies attemped murder on the part of the person being watched.
Very nice, Ant. No male retard could have said it better!
Now you read this and repent.
Ungodly Rage: The Hidden Face of Catholic Feminism
by Donna Steichen
3.97 · Rating details · 35 ratings · 6 reviews
Written by a Catholic journalist who has investigated feminism on its own ground, this remarkable book fully exposes the hidden face of Catholic feminism for the first time, revealing its theoretical and psychological roots in loss of faith. A definitive account of a movement impelled by vengeful rage to revolt against all spiritual authority.
Kid walks to store, ends up dead, must be his fault.
Cool story, bro.
If anyone was standing his ground, it was Trayvon.
Malthuss posted a shitload of ‘proof’ below – none of which proves Trayvon did anything wrong.
He did though, post the proof from the police saying they told Zimmerman to stay in his car, which he ignored.
You can’t make this stuff up.
I’m guessing they want young black men killed for crimethink.
I don’t want whites to become a small minority, which certainly may be the case before the Die-Centennial or a few decades after. They have worked too hard and built a civilization too magnificent to have it taken over and in large part altered or destroyed by those more primitive and much less creative.
What goes next, the busts and paintings of Einstein or George Washington, or Frederic Church or Edward Hopper, Rembrandt or Turner, Titian or Tintoretto, the buildings of Frank Lloyd Wright or Louis Kahn or Frank Gehry? The dome of the Duomo in Florence by Brunelleschi, the Pantheon in Rome? The creations of Michelangelo or Leonardo da Vinci?
Yes, a World made by the hands of whites, and yes, other races toiled and sweat but did not create (exceptions for the East).
They deserve respect but the Creators so much more so.
Exactly. We are the Builder Race. But we were betrayed into choosing taking care of Blacks instead of exploring Space.
Now they’re planning to kill Western Culture with the Jab. Hope you’ve seen thru that and will refuse any more of them.
Some others here are a lot closer to transhumanism than they think… in a real sense, transhumanism and adjacent views represent the next logical step in “western civ”.
“western civ” lovers need to think twice concerning what they’re really about, to carry all the implied trajectories of western civ to their endpoints.
gustafson, yes, it seems that wacko theology is taking root, eh? Logical concusion of Western Civ? Interesting idea… will have to ponder it…
Conclusion, I meant. Trying to write a story about it now, transhumanism. Will not be able to do it without mentioning the Faustian worldview. Western Civ as a Faustian deal?
Yes, I do think so. Western civ, at root, a devil’s bargain.
It’s best qualities are better represented by more “primitive” cultures, in my view. Western civ’s calling-card strengths are actually adultered facsimiles of virtues found in truer forms in cultures with primitive economies.
No worries. I’m still a sixty minute man.
What have you built Janos?
Beyond an impressive library record?

If whites don’t want to become a minority, maybe they should have more kids. But that might interfere with their “lifestyles”
Hereward, we are a minority already, globally, soon in the US & Europe too. Worldwide, 11 to 15% is the ballpark number. No amount of breeding will correct that.
It’s all about allies who share values if not skin color, if we want to survive. South Africa is an example of compromise that went very badly for us. Argentina is an example of a somewhat successful compromise where we are not in immediate danger. Of course, a big difference is more whites in Arg than SA even now, and no Africans, just many immigrants from border countries, mestizos, and from the inner, darker hinterlands.
Those who wish to exert control over the present civilization will seek to destroy the history of those who built it.
The human achievements in our history are indeed checkered by 2021 standards, but I think it’s also important to note, there were only informed by their time. Cancel culture would like us to reject western civilization for being based on a false premise. (Their false premise…)
No. Our beginnings are no more relevant to our current time than all the stupid things you thought and did when you were a child. The progenitors of western civilization were giants with healthy minds. But yes, some were abject assholes with nefarious purposes. So what?
America’s history tells me that we learn and we change. It seems perfectly healthy to me that America abolished slavery. I don’t understand why anyone would want to cancel that bit of history because of what came before. American’s abolished slavery.
Instead of hiding our history by tearing down monuments to it, we should erect new monuments to what we learned by going through it. In this way we celebrate what is common between us instead of segregating into our various, presumed safe spaces.
They’ve been so smug and so self-righteous, and so sure that all people who don’t vote Democrat are white supremacist mouth-breathing deplorables. And so sure that they are in the right and everyone will eventually agree with them, by force if necessary.
But look at them fall apart over the elections! They are still afraid of the ‘facists’ winning – while Jo Jo Magoo their chosen puppet actually rolls out a completely fascist police state.

I’m getting more suspicious of this.
I’m just watching Jimmy Dore and he quotes Yahoo News about catching the Lincoln Project pretending to be white nationalists for Youngen.
Wait, what?
How did that happen? How did a fake news story get exposed by the liberal media? And why?
Most of the country understands that the 2020 election was stolen. Even 30% of Democrats understand that.
What better way to restore faith in the system then to have an upset by the Carlye Group Republicans?
See! The system works! Be sure to vote!!!!
I smell another psy ops.
I think it’s all psyops all the time now! Double and triple psyops within psyops.
So much desperation.
That was one strange episode. Doesn’t bode (bide? – never sure what’s the right term) well. Sowing division, sowing fear. Kill the TV, tend to the garden, I say!
Agree. I loved this summer spending so much time gardening. And I also turned off the TV a long time ago. I think 2012.
The term is “doesn’t bode well” to my knowledge although yeah, it does sound odd.
I got rid of cable in 2012, rigged up an antenna for free over air reception. One of the reasons: I had never seen the bill, my wife handled it. One day I did see the bill and it was $155.
The number of over the air channels keeps increasing, I think I’m up to close to 50. Not being much of a TV watcher I tune into the station with film noir movies from the 40s + 50s, and sometimes local news, which seems to amount to nothing more than press releases from the CDC, pharmaceutical companies, and the governors office.
Yes, bode is correct.
Bide is to remain in place (“bide my time”).
Bode refers to an omen (“forebode”).
Thank you, Mr M.

Plain as day…
Yesterday at Burbank High School a large group of kids marched through the school protesting or advocating LGBQ rights. Then today classrooms were under lockdown due to the threat of a mass shooting, in response to yesterday’s disruption. I don’t think it made the news here in Los Angeles——a coworker got a text from his son who was sheltering in place at school. Apparently shit is happening all the time at the campus because the teachers and staff are too afraid to impose discipline. Kind of like the US/Mexico border…no? Where is the leadership?
Kevvia,
maybe the better question is, what are you doing in LA? Get out, while you still can!
Seriously!
Small town living with nothing to do but stare at the TV is not the life for me. Vegetable gardening is a lot of fun and a wise thing to do but it’s not as time-consuming as it’s made out to be. Also, frankly, it seems to me the entire country is going crazy at this point so “pulling a geographic” (as they say in 12-Step programs) wouldn’t accomplish much. I grew up in Los Angeles. I’m here to stay.
I don’t watch TV and I’m not in a small town, but it’s not huge, either. Lots to do outside and inside (if you’re creative).
easier to say than to do.

Lore Jarek,
your high IQ Asian immigrants,
are they so smart, or is it
ambition
nepotism
saving money
working harder not smarter?
I met a young Cambodian. His family had a jewelry store and lived in Pacific Palisades.
I wondered how immigrants could do this, even in 30 years.
All of the above!
Secrets:
Free labor from wife and kids
Low interest federal loans to East Asians
Strong ethnic cooperation, possible low or no interest loans to each other for new arrivals
Two sets of books for tax purposes
There are probably more….
No group rises faster from poverty. Absolute champs. They’re too good to ever allow them in. We’d have to become the utter borg grinds they are to keep up with them.
I wonder a lot about the Asian immigrants here in Los Angeles, in the San Gabriel Valley. The area is a normal suburban middle class/working class environment yet the newly-arrived Asians are driving around everywhere in Mercedes, BMWs, and luxury SUVs. What do all of them do for a living? They’re fresh off the boat (sorry to use that term) and they are moving into gaudy McMansions left and right. Why and how are they allowed to immigrate in such large numbers? I mean we are talking about a race that is completely erasing white people and Latin people from the region. It seems to me that wherever they were living they were being taken care of. They are healthy, educated, seemingly financially well-off before they arrive in the U.S. . They can’t possibly be claiming hardship as a reason for immigrating here. Sure, Chinese communism is a drag but if it so horrible and oppressive how are such large numbers if Chinese able to freely immigrate? It just seems to me like something is out of balance
Monterey park?
moving here–legally or illegally?
HOW TO GET IN>
anchor babies.
chain migration.
where do they get lots of money?
Monterey Park is one of dozens of cities in the San Gabriel Valley that is now predominantly Asian. We’re essentially talking about the entire region east of downtown L.A. extending all the way out to Palm Springs.
Vancouver, BC, is practically Chinese now.
Rulo,
I lived in Vancouver 1st 50 years of my life. Chinese now make up a slight majority there.
Soul,
my good buddy is a forest firefighter on Protection Island, near Nanaimo. Was, rather. Anyway, I visited him a few years ago so had to go through Vancouver. Seemed very Chinese to me, although slightly over 50% is not the “practically Chinese” I mentioned. Still very high!
I remember the big cargo ships endlessly loading logs China bound, my friend explained. Not off V, but seen on the ferry to Nanaimo.
Beautiful area. Loved it.
UBC, university of a billion ….
No disrespect Yueh
Mgoi sai!
I remember an incident circa 1980.
Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping was visiting the USA when “human rights advocate”, Washington Senator Scoop Jackson asked him about free emigration for people who wanted to leave Communist China.
Deng said: No problem, You can have 10 million Chinese tomorrow. The Senator shut up and spoke no more.
Are we finally getting our promised Chinese?
Maybe they got the order.
If it’s anything like Canada, if you invest 1/4 or maybe 1/2 (now) a mill, you’re in like Flynn.
Where did they get the dough? Make 10$, save $9. Selling you shit from Asia perhaps?
Hey Muller, lol. You ever see that vid of Mao swimmin the Yangtze with a smoke in his mouth?

OK, Jarek, so how would you know about these stats if those countries don’t keep track of race
/ Only a fool would ask that. Where you have africans you have africa, miss.
why does facebook block Unz.com, even if I link in a message?
why did youtube scrub so many factual channels?
https://www.youtube.com/user/ramzpaul
and
book titled, “The Negro: The Southerner’s Problem.” It was published in 1904, and even then, the author, Thomas Nelson Page, was lamenting the millions of dollars that Southern people had wasted trying to educate Negroes to the point of self sufficiency.
This seemed to be the reason for funding the Black Colleges; so that they could prosper on their own in a segregated society.
As I recall, Thomas Page seemed to have a somewhat sympathetic view of the plight of the African in America, but had concluded that they were generally only suited for the trades. It has been quite awhile since I read it, and it would probably be worth perusing again.
and –comments I culled,
NO ONE ON THIS site cares about your virtue signaling. let me ask you, if black people are so wonderful, why are their neighborhoods so dangerous?
there are two things most people learn if they have to deal with blacks on a regular basis: they have an excuse for everything, and nothing BAD one by them is ever their fault. Always yts fault.
After being discharged, the first pace I went to was the largest communications company in the mid-west. I was told that they were only hiring minorities at this time. Same thing at the post office where veterans and minorities only were being hired.
So the black man made it on his own?BS!! BTW at this time IQ and other such tests were ruled illegal.
Disparate impact and other BS excuses. The back middle class would be a lot smaller if it weren’t for discrimination against white people.
I remember the school district here when the rulers found out that the newly built school that admitted students based on tests and grades. The district was 92 % minorities and when they found out that this new school would be 75% white they immediately instituted quotas limiting white children to 35%. Think about that!! if you can.
Letz get rid of Affirmative Action and then we can have a conversation about the black man.
It’s common knowledge that rape has exploded since the Muslim invasion of Europe. She may well know this, but she’ll be damned if she’s going to admit it. So to spite me, she may well be playing dumb.
She gets a kick out of this? She doesn’t respect the Truth, nor even herself in a healthy way.
Jarek, this is true. The problems with the Muslim invasion. I commented on this on one of your posts upthread, and recommended an author that covered that topic.
Mary, this is indeed a problem, and you will find little about it on mainstream media. It’s true that our more “extreme” posters, like Jarek, often generalize to the point of caricature, without much basis in the real world. Not here.
That said, for one rapist, one Jihadist, there’s probably 1,000 regular guys who just want to work and enjoy their family and friends. Why they are there, or should they be there, is another question.
And many of the thousand will support the rapist and the jihadist because that’s real Islam and they are pious Muslims.
And the Israeli who opened up on a Mosque has his own shrine….
Well, well, well.
Just look at all the twisting going on up here. You are all pretzels at this point.
It’s a shame, Rulo, that you immediately bought into Jarek’s narratives because so far everything he posts in response to me is a lie. On this thread, it’s 100% so far. Same thing he does to GA and others.
There is nowhere I have said that rape has not increased anywhere.
You see my question? Malthuss quoted it. That questions merits all this utter bullshit? People can’t ask questions now without being attacked, lied about and misquoted?
Jarek made a claim and I asked him to back it up. BTW, he said blacks not muslims. And it was Ireland, not all of Europe.
Mary,
what’s to be “pretzels”? I’m not sure about Ireland, but if it’s anything like the rest of Western Europe, yeah, there is a real problem going on with large immigrant communities that refuse to accept Western values. Even a quick search using mostly MM sources will give you a hint of that.
Can you please repeat the question? I’m trying to find it.
He agrees with me not you, Mary. See? This is how real people are. It’s not always all or nothing, and building alliances against other people.
It’s certainly not personal, fellas. The way I see it, this is a place to discuss information, ideas. Personal feuds and vendettas are unnecessary, I’m here for the intellectual “meat” so to speak.
I agree with Mary most of the time. I can agree with Jarek on some things, but I already said elsewhere here, there’s bridges that cannot span our many differences. The nazi ideology, the demonization of whole groups, crass generalization, anti-women. Too many differences.
But why would I not accept I can agree on some things? I’ve made Janos mad several times, Mary a couple, but that’s not my goal – I just state my view as is, that’s all. Of course not all will agree! I may be wrong, too.
Ideas, facts, that’s what matters. Mary, if you can remind me of the question you asked, I’ll give my honest answer, that’s all I can do.

OK, Jarek, so how would you know about these stats if those countries don’t keep track of race?
Jarek said that blacks were savaging and raping the Irish and I asked him for stats and he said he didn’t have them because other countries don’t keep track of race. That is what prompted my question.
Hardly something to create a big fucking deal over.
Mary,
I made an effort and answered your question upthread, in detail, to explain why I agree with Janos in this particular conversation. That’s all I can do. If you don’t agree, you don’t agree. That’s fine.
Looks like I hit a chord again.
the wrong cord.
That’s your opinion – which is a drop in the ocean of opinions.
you are new around here.
thats an inside joke, about 10 years ago, someone called OEO
posted insults to people. one of them was,
you must be new around here.
Maybe reread my comments and see how many are insults. And then the ones that contain insults, maybe check to see if someone else started it with me or insulted the board as a whole.
I don’t GAF what any of you think of me. There are plenty people up here I like and enjoy bantering with and reading.
You follow me around and take jabs at me? You’ll get jabbed at back.
Simple.

Oh, now this comment section has become a fucking crying post.
That’s kinda cute and creative.

Well now that the dopes in DC have passed Pumpkinheads new bill perhaps they can be bothered to read the overstuffed thing. I doubt they will however. I read a short summary. My math may be suspect but this total only comes to 450 Billion bucks. Where is the other 750 Billion going from the 1.2 trillion? Enquiring minds want to know. I suspect a little grift will be involved, but I’m suspicious like that.
$110 billion for roads and bridges. More than 45,000 bridges nationwide are rated in poor condition. The bill also includes $16 billion for major projects that are too large or complex for traditional funding.
$66 billion for Amtrak for passenger and freight rail. The bill aims to eliminate Amtrak’s maintenance backlog and to modernize the Northeast Corridor.
$65 billion to expand broadband internet access. The White House estimated as many as 40 million Americans lack broadband access. Biden initially sought $100 billion.
$65 billion to rebuild the electric grid with renewable energy and thousands of miles of new power lines.
$55 billion to upgrade water systems, with a goal of replacing the country’s lead service pipes.
$42 billion for airports, waterways and port infrastructure. Airports would receive $25 billion.
$39 billion for public transit. The bill aims to repair and upgrade transit systems and make stations more accessible to elderly and passengers with disabilities.
$7.5 billion for charging stations for electric vehicles and $7.5 billion for electric buses.
This one is nothing compared to the big one that will restructure America’s social system. Remember Clinton reforming the welfare system in the 90s, this is just the opposite. Clinton’s balance the budget for a couple of years. This one will crush the economy.
LOL Pumpkinhead. You should truly be more kind to poor Pumpkinhead! The remaining $750 billion will go into the pockets of uniparty donors, lobbyists, activists and favored corporations most likely. And just because the funds you list out are assigned to identifiable plans I am highly suspicious that any real world benefits or actual infrastruture improvements will result. Why would those who fundamentally despise the country do anything good for it? More like this is moving money from the lower and middle to the top.
I completely agree.
Saint Elmo, maybe it’s gonna be palmed to the invading hordes
Sometimes I feel really sorry for jim. He puts in all this hard work, gets maybe a few interesting/insightful comments/threads, and then per usual it spins off into la la land.
I have to wonder if any mounting frustration would reach a point of eliminating this entire section altogether. Really, it sometimes seems he’s simply hosting a confab of weirdos and losers.
If I may, perhaps I can offer a suggestion: study, learn and debate issues of race, gender IQ, etc elsewhere. This shouldn’t be a platform for remedial students, if for no other reason that it detracts from broader scale understanding.
OK, so let’s say you’ve now come prepared to analyze what resource constraints actually mean. Does it have to be explicitly spelled out what happens when energy intensive resources which are devoted to supporting artificial standards are no longer maintainable?
The whole edifice is swept away: digital passes, mandates, woke nonsense, and yes, AA. So what happens next?
That’s what I believe is the entire point of Jim’s writing: speculating on a future that will be returning to practices and norms of the past. One based on strict standards governing closer trust relationships and the ability to actually add value.
The problem with being an insufferable prig is that you make yourself an easy target for well-deserved ridicule.
I wonder what prompted you to believe you should be the arbiter of what people discuss here on Jim’s blog? As if you yourself are offering any unique or ground-breaking discussion.
Oh please. So hypocritical for someone who has called for posters to be banned multiple times and who fills up so much of the bandwidth here.
What does either have to do with what I said to mitchellc?
I totally agree with Jim when he bans people who attack others for no reason, post white supremacist racist garbage etc. It’s his blog.
Funny how you haven’t called out Jim for actually doing it though.
I guess you also don’t see the irony in whining about how much I post, in the same sentence with accusing me of wanting people banned.
LOL.
Why would I? It’s not my blog. Good try but the sidestep doesn’t work. You having called for various people to be banned is you acting as a de facto wannabe arbiter. So it’s hilarious you asking anyone else what makes them think they are an arbiter. And there is no irony re bandwidth. It’s a fact.
post white supremacist racist garbage etc. It’s his blog.
Can you do some copy pastes? Assuming the garbage doesnt make you puke.
Please link to my post calling for people to be banned.
No sidestep needed.
I’m happy that Jim has his own banning protocol, and that he uses it with discretion. I think it’s wise.
Wrong, Mary. I never say White are supreme. I admit the contrary above. I do call for Whites to have rights. Do you call for us not to have equal rights?
SSL: Thank you for your spirited defense!
JHK announced a couple of months or so ago that he had banned the ‘character’ Yohannon for posting links to a white supremacist site, after several warnings. If you have a problem with it, malthuss, by all means take it up with him.
I wish people would stop blaming me for agreeing with how Jim runs his blog.
I agree with him. That’s that. I don’t care if you like it or not.
Jarek, you know full well you were banned for posting links to the Daily Stormer. JHK announced it to us.
I don’t know how you can possibly deny it.
SSL, usually when the hole’s dug, people stop digging.
You have no argument.
Attacking Jim’s policies through me is a losing tactic.
I don’t need to bother going through all that. Anyone reading can simply scroll back through the threads check your comments and see for themselves. And secondly why are you so worried about Jim’s “banning protocol”? Why not go to any mainstream site or blog if you are looking for that atmosphere. Or are you a poser here to undermine what has been essentially one of the most open forums out here stll left?
I have not made any comment about Jim’s policies but again nice try. You are the only one doing so. And again why is that?
Hahahaha! I think going forward I’ll call this “pulling a Jarek.” Making unfounded accusations, and when asked to produce it, crickets.
Just sad, SSL.
Your petty attack backfired, SSL.
Not quite, Mary. I wasn’t banned for linking to Daily Stormer, but continuing to do so after he told me not to – emails that I didn’t see. I’ve explained this to you before.
People can still cut and paste from Daily Stormer as Tate showed.
Oh yay you have a new phrase! Did someone say petty? I heard trifling as well. Proves my point perfectly thanks!
Thanks for verifying what I said, Jarek. I find it extraordinary that you can 100% agree with someone while you are disagreeing with them.
Thankfully I can see straight through gaslighting tactics (ask me how!).
I also can spot a flying monkey a mile away 😉
You are either a. Not smart to enough to get the distinction I made or b. Refusing to see it subconsciously or c. You get it but are choosing to pretend you don’t it for purposes of obstruction.
I have no idea which it is. Either dumb, in denial, or more of your bad character.
I have nothing to do with your conversation with him. My point was specifically about you MaryQ or full of pride or who ever the hell you are today accusing others of assuming they are “arbiters” on this blog and yet you do the same. A conversation you have completely avoided and sidestepped because yes you are gaslighting. And now you stoop to name calling. So totally disingenous and pathetic. Cargill level clap clap
Narc tag team gonna tag team.
Yawn.

Why comment? Do you think that the solutions, evident to most on this site, need discussion?
Will the discussions you seek provide for solutions? Politically viable solutions that will be acted upon? Will you solve the issues that now define the US?
No.
Enjoy the social aspects of the site…enjoy our Host’s efforts, be entertained…to be illuminated might be a bit much to ask….
You’re telling me what you think I ought to do. Uh, uh. Keep your comments in the ‘I”, meaning you act or suggest for yourself, not anyone else. If we ask for specific advice, feel free to suggest, otherwise myob.
You’re coming across to me and others as arrogant. Is that how you want to be seen?
Meant for Mitch.
He actually does, because this is like the 5th post of his dripping with condescension.
Right you are Jim. Hold the happy dance, we may not be here to celebrate.

“For years, in an ever-escalating campaign of coercion, persecution, and punishment, the WJPs made their own reality-optional “truth” and foolishly expected the nation to roll over for it.”
Completely. It goes beyond these neo-Jacobins. Lies and deceit permeate US society everywhere. The media is a pro-State propaganda organ. The federal government is hiding behind covid for power grabbing & control, and using the Jan.6th protest to start persecuting half the population. The economy is fake. The US may as well be on an alien planet, the way it is so dependent on goods from Asia. The stock market is a sham. There is little relation between actual profits and the value of a company, or a stock.
This situation will not last forever. There will be some real consequences. A market crash. Real shortages of food, not just a shortage of stuffed animals, and plastic toys. Actual political instability, not just the US senate occupation by Chewbacca.
Indeed.

Absolutely.
Couple comments
The stock market reflects the health of the companies in it. Those corporations that have shifted to Asia or elsewhere to get more consumers will still be growing. The stock market will not change much.
However, the bond market share dependent on the governments input will get clobbered.
Two, the inflation situation reminds me of the latter years of the LBJ administration, guns and butter, Viet Nam and The Great Society. Nixon, Ford and Carter did not have the coroners to stop the upward surge. The Fed tried, interest rates were 16% in the 70s, but when inflation goes out of control, money supply manipulation does not work.
Dems, inflation. GOP deflation. if 2022 and 2024 go Dem, stand by for double digit inflation again.
Cojones, not coroners.
Coroners is correct. Descriptive and predictive.
The triangle of doom and all that…
The stock market reflects the health of the companies in it.
how so?
Inverse in most cases. It reflects the short term speculative potential for stock price increases in all cases, nothing more.

C’mon Man! you don’t think Tesla’s market value is worth almost 3 times the value of Ford, GM, Volvo and Volkswagen combined. I don’t know about you but I really don’t see a bunch of Teslas on the road. A PE Ratio of 400? Seems perfectly normal to me.
Apparently the EV truck maker Rivian is worth $80 billion in its runup to its IPO very soon. Currently the company is in debt $2 billion and has yet to sell 1 vehicle. It looks like a pretty nice truck, but with a range of 300 miles, and a base pricetag of $73000, how many will they sell? It’s not something you’ll see at the worksite; however, if your name is Suzy Cream Cheese, Trophy Wife, and you live in Greenwich, Ct, it looks like just the thing for dropping off Thad and Brittany at the private academy, heading over to Starbucks for a latte, then on to the Yoga studio.

Pete,
I agree with your comment. There’s always consequences to actions.
I don’t know much about macro economy, but I think the stock markets are what they are because the Fed is creating so much $, and there’s so few opportunities to invest it productively, by default it goes to stocks. Mega bubble.
The transhumanists of today should remember Nietzsche and his Overman. Things like artificial Intelligence, genetic engineering and nanotecnology were unknown to Nietzsche, and thus limited, he saw his Overman developing only from the will to power, the power to command himself, becoming fully his own creation and then happy to embrace the ‘eternal recurrence’.
And thus spoke Zarathustra. I say we must become Overmen/Women first and then move on to transovermen from there, but there’s a problem. What would a transoverman or even a transhuman Stalin be like? Can trans whatever excise the deep demons of the mind, take ‘spectrographs’ of the soul’s darkest depths and remove evil? The way I figure it, Zarathustra, instead of spending ten years in a cave, would have been better off ‘bird dogging chicks and banging beaver’.
Here is Jung having something in common with Nietzsche (the Overman):
“There is only one way and that is your way. There is only one salvation and that is your salvation. Why are you looking for help. Do you believe help will come from outside? What is to come will be created in you and from you. Hence look into yourself. Do not compare. Do not measure. No other way is like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfill the way that is in you”
Jung has a lot of good things to say, and wrote something called “The Red Book”. The guy went nuts at one point, but don’t let that unsettle you. Strange things can happen with really deep thought. Just like with Georg Cantor deep diving into infinity and winding up in the Nervenklinik.
Now the transhumanists of today are, of course, seeking gain of function. Those words sound familiar, kind of spooky, don’t they? Yes, they do and for good reason.
Anyway, I’m worried that the transhumanists will create crazy transhuman psycopaths and mass murderers that wind up slaughtering all the regular humans. And what if one of those enhanced humans decides to boff your ol’ lady? I can just hear the gals saying something like, ‘I don’t know about you Mabel, stay with your husband if you want, but after my trans, I’ve got other plans’.
Stay calm, and have a nice day.
Today, fear rules, it seems. Fear also restricts. We can fear walking across the street and never do so, because a driver may run you over and kill you. Yes, that could happen, but it sure affects your life if you never walk across any street.
In your example, at what point is murder unthinkable? Mao, Stalin and Hitler were responsible for 100 million deaths, yet we never bothered to eliminate dictatorships. So if a transhuman strongman could possibly kill 500 million or a billion people, should we not allow transhumanism?
The irony of transhumanism is that we are already transhuman. Did you ever have a cavity filled? In the old days the tooth got pulled, but now we have a machine that cleans out the cavity, then fills it with an amalgam solution. That’s beyond what nature does. A trivial example, but you get the point. What about getting a new heart valve or a stent? It’s not what nature intended, and now we have a foreign body (valve) and an upgrade (stent) inside us. Or what about an artificial limb, contact lenses, hearing aids, new knees and hips?
You see, we already transhumans, just nowhere near what the potential is. It will happen eventually if we don’t blow ourselves up first.
Perfect point, bill.
We’ve also graduated from watching tech on screens to making it wearable (bluetooth, smartwatches, etc.), and the next step is injectible (whoops! that might be the jab) or chips.
And, we’ve been electrified with wifi and 5G etc. So yeah we are already well on the way. Let’s not even mention Kurzweil’s nanobots (smart dust) which arguably is already being distributed through the skies. Who knows what their job is? I have a good idea.
Yeah, nanobots are scary. Science fiction stories about a nanobot future have been written.
The problem is, they aren’t fiction. Kurzweil of Google has seen to that.
BB, thanks for the interesting points and conjecture.
Wise words. Caterpillars living forever, getting bigger and fatter, never transforming into butterflies.
Confusing the transcendence of gender with the conflation of genders. Baphomet not Adam Kadmon or Seraphita.
The Indian Sage Aurobindo criticized National Socialism in similar fashion – their Superman would be a monster obsessed with power. He also hated the Allied obsession with industry and externalities. In any case, the two streams have come together.
In Stirling’s “Drakon” future history, various defeated White factions, like the Huguenots, Confederates, etc flee to South Africa, adopt the White Supremacist Nordic ideals and becoming a Conquering Nation that ultimately threatens the world. As they approach success, they admit to themselves that they aren’t really that much better than the rest of humanity – so begin a campaign of genetic engineering to make their ideology real.
The defeated “Allies” or “Yankees” are forced to flee to another solar system in the end. The last generation of human Draka (named after Sir Francis Drake, treated so shabbily by the Crown) muse about their fate, some admitting that the fate of humanity lies with the vanquished Americans, not with their own progeny.
Yes, even Balzac went into free will and fate, the importance of fortifying the will in achieving moral transcendence.
Jung got that exactly right tucs.
Yes, he was right on about a lot of things.
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
tucson,
food for thought. Deep ideas. Thank you.
Deep thoughts leading to madness, yes. Nietzsche himself went mad. You mention Jung, Cantor. I’ve been reading about Julian Huxley – he also had complete breakdowns, episodes of acute mental illness. He spent time in a psychiatric institution at one point, then his brother (not Aldous, the novelist, but another one) went to the same institution on the eve of WW1 and killed himself there.
Speaking of Jung, the “mad scientist” archetype, like all archetypes and myths, does in fact have deep, solid roots in the human psyche.
Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” seems to be a prominent part of early transhumanist thought. Creating the monster. The Golem?
Perhaps it all boils down to morals – or lack thereof – or a reinvention of what “morality” means. What is good? What is bad? Does either exist? Or just will to power, will to create, to bend the Universe to our will?
There’s questions more than hairy. Terrifying. The famous photo of the African child, starving, skeletal, a vulture waiting for her to die a few feet away, in some godforsaken refugee camp. Why can’t we do anything for her? For millions like her? Have we been wise in industrializing agriculture, advancing vaccinations, sending US Aid sacks of flour so that they could come into the world? For what? What if there’s more skeletal babies than vultures? Who deserves to live in that picture, from an environmental point of view? Someone like Julian Huxley would ponder questions like that, and break down, go mad for a while, then come back and keep thinking. Running UNESCO. Studying embryology. Founding the World Wildlife Fund. Break down again. An endless cycle. His grandfather had been Darwin’s pal. His brother went all in the California greenhouse of new age mysticism, satanism, wrote Brave New World, was often mad himself. Quite a family.
To not take up too much space, my conclusion: right and wrong do exist. Our soul knows right away if we witness either. We know if we’re doing good or bad, we can’t fool ourselves. The man flogging a poor horse to death on some German street, the episode that drove Nietzsche mad, knew for a fact he was being evil. I don’t even have the consolation of Faith. I don’t have the Bible to back me up, I’m a lapsed Catholic, I am not part of the Church. I have nothing. Just my soul, just knowing there is good and evil, and I should do good, not because Heaven or Hell, but because it’s the right thing to do, the only thing to do.
Thank you for your essay, and also to the very good comments that follow.
Thank you, Rulo. Hard to find a more haunting picture than that of the vulture and child. Savagely striking.
I too am a lapsed Catholic. You have the ‘right stuff’, not nothing, and yes, it really can be as simple as good and evil and just doing good.
There once was a sage named Nietzche,
Whose thoughts some found quite peachy,
So thus spoke Zarathustra,
I’ll send the Ubermensch to boost ya’,
And heaven will be in your reachy.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN,
“Traffic Stops” had their origins with the slave patrols led by Orval Faubus and Bull Connor.
When Beautiful Black African-American People of Color rode on the underground railroad, the trains would be stopped by “Traffic Lights” and then the slave patrols would check all the cars and issue “tickets” to all the African-American Beautiful Black People of Color requiring them to swim across the shark infested waters of Philadelphia’s Schuylkill River.
Today, “Traffic Stops” are a painful reminder of the painful era of segregation when African-American Black People of Beautiful Color were not allowed to register their automobiles.
As a result, millions of African-American People of Black Beautiful Color were sentenced to chain gangs where they were forced to build roads from which they were excluded.
I know this must be true because I was told so by my university seminar, “From Red Traffic Lights to Redlining: Citations for 400 Years of Micro-Infractions.”

Orval Faubus – what a fabulous name!
But yes. If only Whites would stop tormenting Blacks with their cultural bullshit. Blacks would quickly build Wakanda or the perfect civilization as they did long ago in Egypt. Is that what Whites are afraid of?

we are floyd
we are stardust. we’ve got to get back to the garden (jungle).
We ARE Pink Floyd? Irony from 46 years in arrears. Sure wish I would have been that smart all those years ago.
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We’re just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here
Problem is, many (most) have suspended licenses or never bothered to get a DL to begin with, have open warrants, are carrying illegal weapons and drugs in the car, and the car is stolen. Under those circumstances I wouldn’t want to be stopped by the cops either.
Just yesterday in Naugutuck, 4 honor students — Club Members — stole a car in New Haven, drove to Naugutuck, looted a Walmart; in making their getaway they ran down a police officer directing traffic severely injuring him, then led State Police on an insane high speed chase on I 84 thru 4 towns before they were finally stopped and arrested. Inside the stolen vehicle were stolen guns, drugs and the hot Walmart merch. And this is nothing really unusual. In Hartford last night a couple people stabbed and somebody shot in what looks like to be an attempted carjacking. Why bother to save money to buy a car when you can just stab somebody in the throat and take their car?
“What happened at Astroworld Festival was a tragedy,” he wrote.
“This was a major event that happened in the city and on Harris County property. Today, law enforcement will speak with concert promoters and witnesses and review videos available from the event and inside the festival venue.”
Scott, 29, is from Houston.
He launched the Astroworld Festival in 2018 in his hometown as an annual event. The festival did not happen in 2020 because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
His 2018 hit “Sicko Mode” reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 that year. He has been nominated for eight Grammy Awards, including for that song and the album “Astroworld.”
Satire, but so close to reality it is painful.
I just keep going back to that #6 rebar.
We have some foundations to repair.
Go there.
Fix it.
anmari,
I have work to do too. But it’s cold, raining, miserable, and the conversation here is good this weekend. Everybody needs a break now and then!
I meant the rebar Jim was talkin about Ru. Go up, read.
Just pulled this from jhks archive @ march 23 2020
I never subscribed to the nostrums of Marxism, but old Karl sure had a point when he said, “All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind.” Is that exactly where we’re at, or what? Jhk
This is where we’re at, and this will be where were at following the Yeaden bullet points upstream. But a much darker place than Jim imagined. I imagine.
Never better convo here, yes.
RULO, go upstream pls and respond to my response to your response re the culling. I might have posted out of proper order as I am want to do.
as I am want to do. – anmari
============

Thanks Q. How’s everybody at your place?
avoid all and any rap hop shows.
avoid free shows.
At least nobody got shot, which is what usually happens at these Hip Hop events. Incredibly, sometimes it’s the star attraction who gets shot, or shoots somebody else.
Sure Frank Sinatra packed heat but he wasn’t gunning down rival singers Mel Tourme, Andy Williams, or Perry Como.
Most interesting to me, this:
“‘One of the narratives was that some individual was injecting other people with drugs,’ Houston Chief of Police Troy Finner said at a news conference on Saturday afternoon
‘He was reaching over to restrain or grab a citizen and he felt a prick in his neck. He went unconscious, they administered Narcan’ Finner added ”
Well well well, are we in the department of unexpected consequences?
I can’t help wondering whether the constant talk and images of and obsession in the news media—in all media—of inoculations and hypodermic needles and shots etc. mightn’t have implanted the idea in someone’s mind to try out this method of causing havoc at the music festival.
Wherever this “inspiration” to plunge a hypodermic needles uninvited into strangers’ necks came from, it seems to carry more than a little poetic irony. Is anyone paying attention?
Any more hypodermic copy cats out there? Copying images seen on the TV etc every single minute of the day? Watch out!! It might be a new “trend” in microaggression.
Wow! They might be injecting people with fentanyl or something. Sounds pretty false flaggy to me.
It’s a Club thing too – something to do to someone on the dance floor in some cities. I’d call this armed assault.
Maybe Sinatra should have been. He could have least have taken out Perry Coma.
Perry Coma.
========
Coma. Hahaha
Avoid large groups of people. Madness is contagious. The only crowd I plan on being part of in future is the one that watches Fauci and Gates hang.

At least 8 people died and several were wounded in a crush during the performance of rapper #TravisScott, at the #Astroworld music festival in the southern us state of #Texas on Friday./

Travis Scott plays on as people collapse around him and eight die when 50,000-strong crowd surges towards stage at Astroworld Festival: Pregnant girlfriend Kylie Jenner is slammed for posting video of ambulance in crowd
Eight people are dead and ‘hundreds’ more injured after a crush and stampede at Astroworld Festival in Texas
The rest of the festival has now been scrapped after revelers surged towards the stage on Friday just after 9pm while Travis Scott was performing at Houston’s NRG Park.
Disturbing video from the concert showed people lying unconscious in the middle of the crowd as officers and emergency personnel performed CPR while others were seen begging concert staff for help.
Scott’s pregnant girlfriend Kylie Jenner shared a video panning the audience to her Instagram story, which showed an emergency vehicle trying to make its way through the crowd

Crowds and music in general have never been a particularly good mix. Showing my age here, but crowds and rap “music” seem to be a whole lot worse.
Everybody loves to make fun of the Woodstock weekend — “don’t take the brown acid!” — but only one person in that tightly packed crowd of 300,000 to 500,000 died. One overdose. Incredible, when you think of what would happen these days under similar circumstances.
I was never a hippie, and have lots of issues with them politically, but I always admired their peacefulness.
I read people died at Yasgurs farm.
One fool climbed a tower and was electrocuted.
Another sept in the road and was run over, fatally.
not sure if there were other deaths,
I attended concerts in the 1960’s. I remember Boston hosted free concerts in the summer at Boston Common/Public Garden. Everyone was very peaceful, smoking dope and several couples humping under their blankets. Who woulda thunk it would degenerate into something like what happened in Houston. Funny, commenters here are saying that the USA is becoming a 3rd world country. Doesn’t this event remind you of the soccer riots in South America and elsewhere? Irony galore.
The 1960s appeared so Hopeful as it pulled the pole of out the USA’s keister. It was about raising loving, caring children in Peace, inclusion and understanding.
Alas, it quickly devolved into the hedonistic “It it feels good, do it!” 1970s and then the paving of insatiable consumerism in the 1980s.
We are stardust, we are golden
And we’ve got to get ourselves back to the garden
– Joni Mitchell
IMO, the ‘60s died when the Beatles broke up. Or maybe it was always Bye,Bye American Pie. The ‘70’s, to me, was the Nixon decade and everything that represented.
To be more precise, naive hippiedom and free love died when the Manson gang killed Sharon Tate.
OG, with all respect, those lyrics are CSNY.
“be more precise, naive hippiedom and free love died when the Manson gang killed Sharon Tate.”
Soul,
To be even more precise it was unrestrained human nature given license.
It’s not just Hip Hop, People are insane. I was almost killed at a Dead concert at Colt Park in Hartford in ’76. Crazy riot. Lots of Cops with clubs. Also The Who disaster in Cinncinati left 11 dead in 1979. White folk misbehavin.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Who_concert_disaster
Altamont in ’69 was no walk in the park.
A few years ago a book came out on Altamont, which I read.
Hastily put together, held at a defunct stock car race track, the dead winter landscape, and Mick Jagger’s insistence the Hells Angels provide security because he didn’t trust cops and thought the Angels were outlaw heroes, led to an apocalyptic and tragic scene.
Then the Stones took off for Europe and stiffed all the vendors.
did you know the ‘angels’ planned to kill Mick but their boat hit bad weather, off Long Island?
stiffed all the vendors.????
I read the Dead hired the Hells angels, as they were friends with them [ie fools].
Als the stage was low, near the bottom of a hill. The guy killed was there to sell speed [he was black].
The Angels were working for the Dead at the Colt Park show I mentioned. 8/2/1976. Here is a little write up I found on the web about the concert. I was in the back outside where the fire was lit. A rowdy good time was had by all.
“Wasn’t this the show that the riot police were called in for? The crowd outside the snowfence broke the barriers down, lit some of the wooden snowfencing on fire, and threw rocks and bottles at the firemen…then the cops were called in, just as the concert was over. I remember getting a billy club to the head as we exited, even though I was part of the paying crowd.”
Festival Seating was commonplace before that 1979 disaster. In hindsight, Festival Seating was an accident waiting to happen.
I remember Yonge Street in downtown Toronto after the Blue Jays won the World Series against the Philadelphia Phillies in 1993. There was an estimated 1,000,000 on Yonge Street that night.
We were walking south. Everything celebratory. Then a Queen Street streetcar blocked Yonge Street. In a matter of seconds it went from awesome to scary as shit!
People kept flowing south but this new barrier allowed no progress or escape. People were freaking out as it became a massive crush of humanity. In seconds.
Thankfully the streetcar was then able to move West and get off Yonge Street. If it hadn’t, I Believe that people would have died.
In an instant.
It was reported that there were 11 cardiac arrests! WTF?
11 heart attacks of young people at 1 place at 1 time? I’ll bet that that’s never happened before regardless of circumstance.
11 heart attacks of the young at once … hmmm … what makes 2021 different than all other garherings/riots ever? Hmmm … so difficult to connect dots. Right?
Yeah, questions abound, like “Were they vaccinating people in the lobby?”.
the revelers were Black [I looked at footage]. If they were vaxed, they were White.
Aside from live athletic competition, I have never been into reality television. It’s lameass, imho.
That said, I Believe that I correctly recall the social phenom Survivor kicking the whole lameass genre into the stratosphere by “voting people off the island” a couple of decades ago.
Reading Yoho and SSL fruitlessly battle a lying troll upthread, it occurred to run a quick CFN plebiscite:
If you could vote one CFNer “off the island” with the goal of making CFN a more cordial and a more efficient venue to discuss the Real pressing matters of the day instead bogging down in high school name-calling shenanigans, who would you vote off this island?
Passive aggressive is not a good look for you O.G. – or anyone else for that matter. Why not turn your attention to the problems in the world that our host Mr. K addresses? Don’t we have enough of those already?
There is nothing passive about my aggression. We all try to speak of important matters here but it all too often devolves into yet another Shit Show over and over and over again. And we all know the cause.
I stepped back because I had my life Really destroyed by a Prideful woman’s lies, reneges, deceits, crimes and Human Rights Violations while she never conceded an inch let alone a loss in her constant “Attack! Attack! Attack!” m.o. I can’t take it any more. TruStory
Then, when I do step back from CFN, she Just keeps doing the same to everyone else. She’s a counter-productive troll and we all know it.
I know that I’ll get a lot of votes. My holding a mirror to Americans is understandably not popular here on CFN. And that’s Just one example. Heck! I argue that our dear Queen Lizard is a shape-shifting reptile, for Goodness sakes.
—–
We all know that my plebscite is voluntary and non-binding.
Come to think of it though, this is the first time that I have ever heard of “putting something to a vote” as “passive aggressive.” In fact, your assessment of a free vote request is very telling, imho.
Forgive, forget, and/or just move on. What is your assessment of that? At some point in any argument, it’s always the best advice.
Plebiscites are irrelevant. Calling for one based on your personal vendetta alone is even more telling.
Just let it go already.
Do ‘t tell me what to do. I’m not your slave.
While I never forget and cannot forgive without her apology, I did try to move on, Dis.
But the very next day, she is doing it to Yoho and to Mitchell and even to SSL for Goodness sakes!
I can’t forgive and forget while she turns this blog into her corrupt Shit Show every single day. That would negligent of me.
This is not Just about me having my Faith dragged through the mud and even blasphemed in public. This is about a troll high-jacking CFN and turning into her personal Shit Show.
She called for Take-a-poo’s banning. She called for Yoho’s banning. She’s regularly calling for someone’s banning. I call for her banning and ask if anyone agrees because I know that it would make CFN 5x Better.
Perhaps I am Wrong … that’s why I have asked for others’ opinions. You know? Free Speech.
Feel free to vote me off the island, scroll on by or fuck off.
LOL! Well then, let your freak flag fly, I guess!
Note to self, never get in the way of an ongoing train wreck. Nothing will be gained and you’ll become a casualty too in the process.
Party on O.G.!
A casualty? Of what?
I have suffered the slings and arrows of corruption as I stood for Truth & Justice my whole life, Disaffcted.
Casualty!
I’d say, “LOL” but I’m not gay.
OK then, well party on anyway!
Turn out the lights
The party’s over
Dis – Note to self, never get in the way of an ongoing train wreck. Nothing will be gained and you’ll become a casualty too in the process.
^^^
Not only that, you can nexpect to be a pretend casualty nearly every time you post on any topic hereforth. Gardening? Now gay. Society? School boards? Both gay. And on it will go…
Good luck. Scroll by, if you can. I’ve been taking classes on the side to work on my scrolling ability of late. Not as easy as it sounds.
You don’t get it dis so you might get dissed. In a world of collapse and dwindling resources you really don’t think people will get voted off the island? Hey. The door has been kinda opened right? In semi civilized times we have people calling for silencing and censorship all day long. Right here in our own little village even. Some people haven’t had their privilege checked. Be careful what you wish for lol
Well said. Misbehavior from groups or aberrant individuals will not be allowed in the Long Emergency.
Do we get to do this weekly?
It is merely my idea. I won’t make rules, Mr M. This is a voluntary and non-binding plebiscite.
I think that we are almost unanimous in that we want more substance and less Grade 10 on CFN. Right?
For the record, I vote Proud Mary off this island as she is the common denominator on all that is putrid on this once Great blog. TruStory
On second thought, I would vote myself off if that was what this peanut gallery had become.
Seriously, now it’s play cliquey games or you’re not one of the cool kids? LOL.
No. That is Just you being you – accrediting lame thoughts and motives to your adversary in your corrupted attempts at corrupt victory. Again.
Of course, as is your standard m.o., you do so while displaying the very Grade 10 behaviour that you constantly deploy to turn this once Great, adult blog of substance into your dominated Putridfest.
We all know that.
—–
If we vote you off the island and then Jim banned you from CFN, the discourse here would immediately increase at least five-fold. TruStory
Has anyone else noticed that, when in confrontation on CFN (i.e. every single day), Proud Mary does 2 things:
1) State her adversaries’ thoughts and motives (and incorrectly so) in her corrupt attempts to make them look foolish and
2) Liberal “LOL!” and “LMAO!” to corruptly ridicule and shame her adversaries sans facts, thoughts, analysis, reason or logic?
I have. I know her all too well. Her name is Janet.
—–
I am not the problem here. Yoho is not the problem here. SSL is not the problem here. Mitchell is not the problem here.
Proud Mary is the problem here. We all know that.
I have. I know her all too well. Her name is Janet.
And thus, your lesson on the meaning of projection is complete.
That is not projection, Mr M. Janet and Mary are a type. There are many, many more women that “argue” this way. They are corrupt and plentiful.
We all know that.
Her name is Janet.
My apologies. My comment was in reference to the name. I presumed you were referring to a woman in your real life that perhaps has wronged you (I can think of one that you’ve been very open about discussing).
That was my reference to projection.
Clearly I misread your usage of the name Janet.
Mr M,
I Believe that your intentions are True … you are Just none too bright.
You thought that simile is exaggeration.
Now you think that pointing out similarity is projection.
Janet is indeed my ex- who needlessly destroyed our children’s father with her lies, reneges, deceits, crimes and Human Rights Violations.
Mary “argues” in the exact same way as does Janet – a constant barrage of strawmen (stating my thoughts and my motives) and mindless ridicule (LOL, LMAO, etc.). Her “arguments” are “all bun and no beef.”
Janet & Proud Mary are but 2 of many, many, many women who “argue” in this corrupt fashion. TruStory
No projection. Identical m.o. Get it?
“Proud Mary is the problem here. We all know that.”
Og,
Proud Mary never called me “nigger”….
Now you think that pointing out similarity is projection.
Read what I wrote again and then think harder. You can do it.
Def – “Projection is the process of displacing one’s feelings onto a different person, animal, or object.”
Because you are a scholar of the English language, you should be able to understand my usage of the word projection, as opposed to “pointing out similarity”, or whatever you reduced it to.
My premise was:
– You treat your CFN lady friend as if she were your ex (we’ve seen your letters).
– You perceive her communication with you as if it were coming from your ex.
Displacing one’s feelings onto a different person. Projection.
@MrMango:
Who knows where ‘Janet’ comes from?
LMAO.
Too bizarre. I guess that’s the ex’s name? If so, ew. If not, ew still.
I apologize for asking you to apologize. I treated you like a person. That was a mistake.
You don’t need to vote yourself off the island, Mr M. You can simply walk away whenever you like.
Don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out.
Nice idiom!
https://youtu.be/CmrLsJUtxG4?t=75
Due to the fact that my IQ is 210 ive determined that “voting off the island” is unenforcible in this context
It’s really just speaking to the principal of it all. Right big brain? 🙂
Of course this plebscite is voluntary and non-binding, GR22. One needn’t be a genius to understand that.
It will be telling, however.
And, this particular island actually does have a Monarch who, I Believe, desires his island to have much more substance and much less Grade 10 bull shit. That’s what I Believe.
That is, this plebscite is fuel for his goals. In fact, a simple vote could steer the electorate to his goals while he merely watches his minions in some combination of amusement and disgust.
Reality TV is not “lameass”, it is brutal and dehumanizing. It elevates human cruelty and turns it into entertainment, in order to desensitize people to viciousness.
It is certainly nothing to emulate.
And advocating that random commenters on a blog gang up to victimize one person, whether one time, or weekly, is appalling.
Why take the worst of TV programming (programming brutality in the population) and suggest it for ordinary people?
You’re getting too literal Paula. Of course its ugly. But don’t you think cancel culture is ugly? Based on everything you post I imagine you do. And yet it is very real and has destroyed many peoples’ lives. Og was simply engaging in a thought exercise. No one can remove or ban someone except for Mr. K. My point above was simply that this type of thing can and will happen in the real world whether it’s televised or not. Before it was called Survivor it was called Shunning
That’s pretty funny – the O.G. screed above that you fully support is exactly the same as the cancel culture tactics the trans agenda and SJWs use.
James doesn’t ban people very often at all Mary. Once again, his is one of the most open of forums I have come across. But again, it’s good to know you agree with his “banning policies”. And yet here you are to lecture me on noting that shunning and canceling are indeed social practices that have seemingly existed as long as people have. Which ironically provides some basis for your happiness that people have been banned from this forum. Which again is different how from the “cancel culture tactics the trans agenda and SJWs use”? Personally I favor free speech and don’t really care for banning. And I don’t presume to speak for James.
Yep. I agree with his “banning policies.” I have said so quite a few times now.
I don’t give a rat’s ass what you think about that, SSL.
It makes me happy when obnoxious people are banned.
I get it that the pile up team today tried to get people to believe that I’m obnoxious and deserve to be banned. Nice campaign! Kinda childish and high school, though.
But anyone can scroll up and see my comments, which are completely innocuous compared to half the people up here. I don’t tell people to fuck off, I don’t twist their words, I don’t accuse people of stuff they haven’t said, etc.
So, good luck with your campaign to have me banned, SSL! We’ll see what happens with that, I guess.
“Og was simply engaging in a thought exercise.”
HA hahahahahahahaaa!
Wow.
Is that what you call complete mental breakdowns? OK then.
OMG!! For the last time and I am seriously not revisting it again with you. As near as I can tell Mr. K doesn’t even have a banning policy because like he hardly ever bans anyone. So once again. The fact that you enjoy him banning people means you get very little enjoyment ok lol. And now I know you are intentionally being goofy. For real, you are actually saying that I am leading a campaign to have you booted off here lol? Prove it. Where did I say to ban Mary? Right! I thought so. Nowhere.
Og has been open with all who have kept up with his posts that he has been going through difficult times and he was open about his mental health struggles. For you to sit here and mock that sickens me. And it speaks volumes about you Mary. Have you no compassion and patience for others. You better pray to the good Lord that you don’t receive that same sort of dismissive heartless attitude the day you find yourself down and out. The whole faux Ayn Rand-ish attitude put off here by you is nauseating to me and quite frankly it’s deeply offensive. But wildly enough I will not be calling for you to be banned.
SSL, I don’t have any empathy for dry drunks/addicts who refuse to do the work to solve their problems and instead project them onto people he doesn’t know on a comments board.
You’re an absolute sucker to fall for an addict’s bullshit.
The same group of people screeching because I agree with James’ banning of people are now are demanding I be removed – hahahahaa!
Hilarious.
Oy.
Passed note:
Mary, Mr M likes you!
Get in a conflict with a woman and Mr M is the arbiter: the HR person, the deciding Juror, or the Judge. Think you would have a chance? Not a snowball’s in hell. Taking the side of the woman is as natural to him as breathing.
LOL! I’ve got a woman chained downstairs as we speak. Ball gag, ben-wa balls, and this kinky little rubberized string bikini thing I bought online. Nice little tight body, especially since I never feed her more than three times a week. She doesn’t even attempt to say much anymore, no matter how much I give her the cattle prod, but I think she’s just lost in thought. She grew kind of quiet last time I smacked her across the mouth with the rubber hose. I’ve heard losing teeth will do that to you. Go figure.
dis is dark
C’mon now. You of all people?
Indeed. That was the second sickest thing that I have ever read on CFN.
Sadistically and blasphemously accusing Good Christians of fornicating the Bible is still first in CFN sickness, imho.
—–
God warned us that hearts would grow cold as we enter End Times.
Only second? Looks like I’ll have to try harder.
Well the Fathers teach that we aren’t responsible for every idea that pops up in our minds, but we are responsible as to what we do with them. They way we must learn to discern what comes from us, and what from the Devil. I might also add, what comes from others. Some things shouldn’t see the light of day, much less be acted upon. Not that you would the latter but you just did the former.
I’m not voting you off the island or anything. But the ladies won’t like this and I’m with them on this one.
Well said, Yoho. Thank you.
Evil does as Evil says.
Oh come ON, boys, this is your sense of humor! Don’t self-edit. Enjoy.
That was creepy.
Nah. Not even particularly imaginative. I see worse on TV all the time. By the way, I don’t even have a downstairs, for what it’s worth.
I think Dis was playing a little game called “Here’s my story, which Democrat am I?”
Trouble is we never got enough info to narrow it down much.
Try this one.
“I just sent the FBI to raid multiple homes looking for my daughter’s “stolen” diary where she wrote that during her teen years I would slip into the shower with her and do things to her.”
Can you guess – who’s story is it?
I’m not voting you off the island or anything. But the ladies won’t like this and I’m with them on this one.
I see. Having it both ways now, are we? Me thinks Jarek speaks with forked tongue.
By the way, you do understand the meaning of the word ‘parody,’ don’t you?
He finds parody more offensive than actual insults to women. Classic.
You don’t speak for all women. And much of the time, you don’t even speak for yourself, so busy are you in playing games with people.
There is simply no limit in what you will do to get a verbal slam dunk. Biting, kicking, screaming, pushing, punching – anything. But is it still basketball (a conversation) at that point? No.
You’re correct in that I value humor and the slam dunk.
Anything wrong with that? I’m not the only jokester up here.
I wonder why they aren’t being similarly targeted for take-down?

An Australian Horror Story
“The Premier of the Australian state of Victoria, Daniel Andrews, has just tabled legislation in parliament which is possibly the most monstrous ever introduced into a country calling itself democratic. Basically it gives Andrews the power to do whatever he wants and whenever he wants it. He has been turning Victoria into a police state for the past year and a half but behind the bland face and earnest manner, the legislation openly stamps him as a totalitarian psychopath.
Here are some of the salient points of the Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Pandemic Management) Bill 2021. Read on and be amazed that this can actually be happening in Australia, the laidback happy country of beaches, sunshine, beer and prawns on the barby.
The legislation allows Andrews to declare a pandemic even if there is not one. He only has to think there could be one. This antipodean combination of commissar and gauleiter is taking complete personal control of the state and its people. He can close down parts of the state or the whole state and prevent people from entering or leaving in whole or part. He can extend closures without limit.
Enforcement will rest in the hands of police and ‘authorised officers.’ For those who don’t do what they are told there will be heavy fines, up to $90,000 for individuals and $450,000 for businesses. People can be detained for two years and will have to pay the cost of their own detention in the massive internment camp that has been built at Mickleham, on the outskirts of Melbourne. The legislation authorizes police to use ‘reasonable force’ to help an ‘authorised officer’ when he/she detains them.”

That diktat that Andrews just put on the table is almost laughable in its complete Orwellian totalitarianism! Completely insane.
Andrews is one of the worst. A true psychopath.
Whoosh that announcer wasn’t kidding, she used some real fun passive aggressiveness alright. Hope she has a nervous breakdown.
People keep bringing up the Deagall predictions of the US dropping to 100 million population by 2025.
I’m guessing immigrants who have somewhere to go will get the hell out. I sure would if I had somewhere to go. I can see that Iraqis would rather be in Iraq, where they fight back.
Great point. Iranians wouldn’t take this sitting down (I hope).
What if the government told them to take it and it was the Rule of Law?
People are smart enough (usually) to know the diff between rule of law as it stands (sort of the Golden Rule) and tyrannical ‘law’ which of course is never voted on.
I’ll go for the rule of law that is consensus based before mob rule every time.
And if Government doesn’t do its job, the jobs has to be done by more local entities. Thus Texas has vowed to protect its own border since the Feds refuse to.
If the State or City can’t protect citizens, they have the right to protect themselves, singularly or in groups. Jews do it in some places. Google “Shomrim”. Of course you will probably accept that because the Establishment accepts it. And not accept our right to do it because the Establishment won’t accept it.
Thus one aspect of our System is called “Anarcho-Tyranny” or the differing treatment of different groups based on their status or usefulness to the Elite.
Good luck with your army, Jarek.
Any rule of law naturally has to be backed up with the threat of force otherwise there is no law and therefore no rule. To not recognize such is to dismiss basic primal nature.
Yes SSL. We need an army or perhaps a Golem like the one created by Rabbi Loew of Prague circa 1600. But that’s another story altogether.
And yet millions continue to cross the border to get into the US. Why would they come in just to turn around essentially? Could it be that the 100 million to be “dropped” are natives? Makes sense given that the uniparty incessantly speaks of replacing the current native born American population and obviously acts to ensure as many migrants pour in as possible.
Was watching the Caravan vs the Mexican Police. The Police about two dozen guys blocking the road. A bunch of Caravan Warriors come forward and keep pelting them with rocks and pushing them back. Finally the get in their truck and flee.
It struck me as theater. Two dozen is all they could get? Where was the tear gas? The long batons for swinging? Why were they only on the defensive? I don’t buy it. They could stop these people at any time. Just as American could have stopped the madness of the Summer of 2020.
One Cuban caravan warrior got too enthusiastic about his role and tried to really hurt one the Mexican Police last week. They shot him dead.
Wow I bet you that a lot of the pushback that the Mexican national guard and police is putting up against the migrants is theatrics of one degree or another come to think of it. The Mexican President had openly stated before his election that he was a big migration proponent. I did hear about that incident too with the police getting injured pretty badly. Anyone who cares about the whole law and order thing would clearly want to keep these people from getting into the country, and as you say yes they would have put down the rioting in the cities too.

Great six part series about how Communist take overs happen. One thing stands out so far for me: Conservatives will be amazed at how well armed and trained the youth brigades will be. We started seeing Antifa with rifles already. Do we assume they don’t have training camps? That they haven’t been training for years? Why? Because the media only focuses on right wing militias?
Weapons are the least of it. Ideas – nee delusions – always lead the way and do by far the most damage. By the way, you should drop the ‘communist’ bullshit. This isn’t that.
We lost a Fifth Generational War against the Deep State – and the Globalists behind them. Now it’s getting closer to round up time. The Antifa – who see themselves as anarchists and/or communists, are going to be part of that.
Thank God for the 2nd Amendment. That’s one of the few battles the Left has lost for the most part.
The ‘Antifa’ are largely a creation of over-educated and pampered east coast liberals (aka, capitalist progeny) with too much money and time on their hands. As such, their claims to any sort of intellectual legitimacy should be given the derision it so richly deserves. You of all people should know that. Stop smearing ‘communists’, and by insinuation, crediting capitalists, by calling them that. Their correct label would simply be ‘anarchists’, since that’s what they’re really all about. ‘Communists’ is simply a pejorative term used by American capitalists to discredit their mortal enemy.
Disaffected, Antifa appears to be more of a west coast phenomenon, alternatively flying their black flag/hammer and sickle in primarily Portland and Seattle. Sure they’ll show up in Manhattan, or Philadelphia, throwing bricks at police horses splitting their heads open, smashing storefront windows, stopping traffic and dragging civilians out of cars, but only on rare occasions, just a few weeks per year, usually in the warmer months. In Portland, on the other hand, they were out in the streets just a few weeks ago, wrecking more businesses, doing $500,000 in damages.
Nope, they appeared in pre-WW2 Germany to help push Germany into Communism, but the Nazis crushed them on the streets.
It’s starting to feel like Halloween again with all this serious creepiness around lol. But seriously, yeah I do think the antifa and blm foot soldiers that burned the cities in 2020 will be utilized by the globalists and uniparty probably soon since the economic collapse is well underway. I would also just add that I think they plan to use the border jumpers too. That’s why they have it wide open for even real actual terrorists to cross right on in. Texas is doing as much as it can presumably. But what about New Mexico, Arizona, and California? And even then, they are literally flying them in at taxpayer expense no less!
Agree. A lot of the antifa are softies, even if they’ve learned to shoot. There’s more to it. Ditto the BLM, except for the ghetto thugs, but they’ll be hard to direct. But the countless young men from Latin America, Afghanistan, Haiti, etc, who owe everything to Uncle Sam? They might have to give back – and some of them are very hardened indeed.
Still, one can’t underestimate the transformative power of hatred. Russians saw many young bookish intellectuals transform into hardened killers before their eyes.

According to the recordings posted on the city’s website, Zimmerman was perturbed because Trayvon looked a bit out of sorts. Other callers reported hearing someone calling for help and then a blast that silenced the wailing. One call, so close that the cries for help could be heard, contains two sounds, first a muted bang that family attorneys believe was a warning shot, then the louder crack of close-range gunfire. Sanford police said Sunday that a check of the weapon showed only one shot was fired.
The first call came from Zimmerman.
“He’s just looking at all the houses,” Zimmerman said. “Now he’s just staring at me.” Then Zimmerman said the suspicious person, who appeared to be black and in his late teens, had his hand in his waist band. “Something’s wrong with him. He’s coming to check me out.”
As he narrates where the man was headed, the dispatcher asks, “are you following him?” Yeah,” Zimmerman said. “We don’t need you to do that.” [Source]
“These a**holes always get away”. Yes they do. But they might not this time Mr. Zimmerman.
That’s all one needs to know:
As he narrates where the man was headed, the dispatcher asks, “are you following him?” Yeah,” Zimmerman said. “We don’t need you to do that.” [Source]
If you believe this, then you understand that Zimmerman had absolutely no right to get out of the car, follow, and kill Martin.
So much for all your talk about communities and individuals standing up for themselves.
I prefer law to vigilantism, yes.
The rule of law is dying. San Francisco and the shoplifting plague. Portland’s murder rate up over 700%. Australia and the rogue state, etc.
I though you understood all this. People have to learn to defend themselves. I thought you got that. Guess it was just more of my projection….!
That’s a weak argument.
It’s as if you are arguing for the rule of law to die, rather than be restored. And be replaced by mob rule, such as Antifa and BLM.
Tsk, tsk.
Any restoration at this point will be as part of the Great Reset. You’re so mixed up – a typical woman. You don’t understand process, but only the binaries of yes/no, good/bad, etc
Wow! I don’t think so, cowboy.

My suggestion: Do some juice fasting, and meditation. If you need help knowing which ones to do, I have a plethora of recipes and chiropractic/yoga approved poses I can recommend. I like to share.
Deeply satisfying, and keeps one from being too extremist.

From JHK:
The actual reasons for why this is so are taboo, namely, liberal deconstruction of American family life, unwillingness to prescribe behavioral norms, and self-sabotaging cultural choices such as the failure to promote the teaching of language skills as a primary task of public education
I agree that early childhood education is critical, followed by teenage education and direction (especially for males) – in order to break the pernicious inter-generational cycles of self-destructive behavior, often-negative peer pressure, endemic involvement in crime or anti-social activity, and the crushing of potential, leading to very low ambition.
Of course there shouldn’t be overwhelming victim-blaming – to the extent that the white guys (both liberals and conservatives) get off scott-free, even after generations of discrimination against minorities in a million different ways. But if there are solutions, the victims are really going to have to learn to help themselves out of the funk.
I was listening to a David Icke presentation earlier today (it was excellent). He’s seen what’s coming for 30 years so of course was called a loon, etc.
In any case, he was talking about how normalized it is for families to give their kids up to the state (school) earlier and earlier. It explains why now we have a ‘victim generation’ or as he calls them, generation jelly, who are offended by everything and care more about being kept safe than living life.
It really is sad. I feel fortunate I’m old.
Of course there are plenty of exceptions – great young kids. I met a lot at the college I worked for, and my nieces and nephews are pretty great. But there is a real cancer in that generation of being weak and dependent on the state, that doesn’t bode well.
You have stated you are healthy. If so, at your age you’ll probably have another 20-25 years to go.
Regarding this young generations desire for safety:
It’s the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It’s the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It’s the one who won’t be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dyin’
That never learns to live
– The Rose
Nice lyrics, btb. We’ll see if I have that long – I am very healthy but have no desire to live in a techno-feudalism sort of dystopia. But I will endeavor to find an alternative way of living, nonetheless.
I am already working on it. Very exciting stuff.
I don’t have that fear of death and need to be made safe of the younger generation.
Never did! Man, if you saw the wild stuff we rural midwest kids got up to in our teen years, you’d not recognize it compared to the kids of today. Amazing we’re alive!
Every day is a gift, and I have already gotten to live a lot of free years (which is more than I can say for the young ‘uns coming up).
My dogs, clean living, friends, exercise, sunlight, being out in nature, playing piano, writing, singing, gardening, photography keeps me very busy and happy for now.

I don’t follow the logic of the argument – that quality language, literacy, and numeracy education will necessarily lead to poor outcomes and an over-reliance on government.
Everyone on here (pretty much) is literate and a competent writer – many would have gone to state schools between the ages of five and 17. That’s a good thing.
Like I said, normalized… you don’t question it.
No, you don’t have a ‘good’ education. No, we don’t have nearly the critical thinking ability or intelligence of someone who went to college (or even graduated high school) in the early 1900s.
You’re seeing a very small percentage of ‘decent’ writers up on this blog. Seriously, do you understand that most kids graduate high school completely illiterate?

I understand that standards are low – I have two nephews who graduated from state university in Maryland in the last decade or two – they said many of their cohort were really dumb.
But that wasn’t my focus – my point was that David Icke was talking truly total rubbish … just because he failed school is totally irrelevant to today’s world – he’s an utter nutter – the reality is that the more minority people we can get properly through elementary and secondary schooling the better, surely.
…the reality is that the more minority people we can get properly through elementary and secondary schooling the better, surely.
Properly, yes.
Eliminating grading is not a way to do this properly, for example.
Making testing easier or non-existent isn’t either.
The problem for most of these kids is at home, and the culture that school is for “___s” (choose a slur, followed by laughs from any males in the room, many red-eyed and tapping the ash off of their joints).
You seem to equate public school with a “quality language, literacy, and numeracy education”. The first paragraph of our local school district’s mission statement was changed last year to pontificate about (and only about) diversity, equity and inclusion as the top priorities. Nothing about language, literacy or math.
Where does the “reality” of the proper achievement of a diploma fit into that?

Not such a nutter any more.

The Democrats
— Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society”
“These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don’t move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there’ll be no way of stopping them, we’ll lose the filibuster and there’ll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It’ll be Reconstruction all over again.”
I didn’t post the other quote that is usually associated with him, as it appears there is a difference of opinion on whether or not he actually said it. I think he did. None-the-less…
What made Johnson believe in 1964 that black people were ‘uppity?’
Johnson and the Democrats were racist to the bone, and they forever stunted the black family by providing incentives that caused the black nuclear family to disintegrate, thereby replacing the head of the family with state as provider. This had a profound affect on black men who were pushed out of their traditional ‘human’ roles which ordinarily imbue men with a sense of purpose and personal power.
I believe the Democrat plantation is real, it was designed to do what it has done, and the sooner we all see them for who they are the better.
Agreed. And the schools were designed to keep minorities and most whites dumbed down enough to never encroach on the preserve of the Elite.
Then they create CRT and promote racial divisions with the myth that all white people are privileged and responsible for the crimes the Elite perpetrated. They pay poverty pimps and presstitutes to spread this bullshit.
It sickens me.
I agree that early childhood education is key. That is one thing Biden said that I agreed with. Funny that the “turn on the record player” thing was the only thing the media ever ridiculed him for. I have noticed how differently ghetto people treat their babies and young children than other groups do. They don’t talk to them, they don’t interact or play with them, they randomly slap them, they leave them with anyone who will take them for days or weeks. Sometimes those kids don’t know their last names, even when they are 5 years old.
But it is also part of the wider culture.
I had Haitian immigrant neighbors in California. They had two sons. The younger son and my son became best friends. He was at my house all the time. He was a very nice boy, kind and polite.
The older son, also a nice boy, was in high school. My daughter rode the bus with him and told me that other kids, who identified as black, (although their mother was white and their dad, while technically black, clearly had white lineage also) hassled the hell out of that poor kid for being good in school and bringing home his homework, etc. They told him that he wasn’t “black” even though his skin was far darker than theirs.
Then we moved. For a couple of years, my son and his friend corresponded and I could see him changing, through his letters.
He started complaining that people didn’t like him because he was black, etc.
He didn’t learn that at home, he learned it outside of his home.
Did you participate in any of the antifa/BLM frolics in Chicago or Indianapolis? I heard that some of the lineage Communist groups (like the Wobblies) were involved, at least on the West Coast.
BERLIN (AP) — A knife attack on a high-speed train in Germany left three people severely wounded, the Bavarian Red Cross said Saturday. Police said a man has been arrested in connection with the morning attack.
The train, one of Germany’s high-speed ICE trains, was traveling between the Bavarian cities of Regensburg and Nuremberg at the time of the attack. A spokesperson for the Bavarian Red Cross, which had 110 responders at the scene, said the organization processed three “severely injured” people.
A 27-year-old Syrian man was arrested in Seubersdorf, where the train stopped after the attack, Bavarian state police told The Associated Press. The injured people came from the Regensburg and nearby Passau areas, state police said.
In addition, 200 to 300 other people from the train were taken off and brought to a nearby location, the Bavarian Red Cross spokesperson said.
Both Regensburg and Nuremberg are stunningly scenic – and German ICE trains are indeed nippy. Fastest train we experienced was in Italy – 317 kph (196 mph) on the Frecciarossa – and it was so smooth you could stand a cigarette up on your table. Impressive.
I prefer taking the BMW M550i.
Particularly since the highest concentraton of masked idiots is found on the ICE.
We’ve spent a lot of months touring around Western Europe – but never bothered driving. The rail (and occasional bus) system is so good that there’s no reason to rent a car. This is all pre-Covid of course.
We drove all over the UK and Ireland however.

Here’s the thing: “Biden” isn’t a sign of strength, but rather a desperate effort by thinkers to wrest away control from the idiot Trump.
Trump is the face of the average American, believing in right vs wrong, moral virtue, and of course endless growth powered by unlimited remusical?
Not dissimilar from “Jesus loves me, this I know, because the Bible tells me so”, the American myth is the result of a singular event of outrageous fortune. So, how can anyone expect a different reaction?
Put yourselves in the shoes of leaders. You know Ghawar reserves are (vastly?) overstated, you know domestic fracking and oil sands are a last ditch effort, and you know Russia has the lions share of the worlds remaining economically recoverable fossil fuels.
Did Trump know, but didn’t care because he was so focused on ego satisfaction? Or, was he truly a complete moron who didn’t get it?
I guess we’ll never know, but one thing we can be certain is that he probably outperformed Joe by millions of votes and scores of EVs.
So what’s that say about the average ‘murican? It says they are a very dangerous beast, indeed. So much so that every Constitutional provision, every tenet of law, every facet of American society has been ripped apart in a last ditch effort to stave off what’s coming.
Oh sure, they tried. But it was always a hail Mary. The truth is as shrub said, this sucker is going down.
Put yourselves in the shoes of leaders. You know Ghawar reserves are (vastly?) overstated, you know domestic fracking and oil sands are a last ditch effort, and you know Russia has the lions share of the worlds remaining economically recoverable fossil fuels.
JHK has talked intelligently about the realities of oil’s availability (and most importantly, its affordability) for a very long time, and there is no doubt it’s correct. KSA is going flat out trying to keep Ghawar a viable proposition, and the whole North American fracking / tar sands industry is losing money and investors with both hands.
There is no likelihood of the US having “oil independence”, now or any time in the future – it’s never been the case. Sure – the US exported some fractions, but overall, it was still importing millions of barrels of the regular stuff.
I don’t think Climate Change is going to send us into The Long Emergency anytime soon – I think globalisation, financial industry disasters, supply change clusters, and energy costs, will do the job much more quickly.
When Trump is mentioned now I do experience various traumas. It’s sort of an inverse post-Trump TDS I guess. I ultimately cannot conjecture what he knows and doesn’t know but I assume its way more than Biden who literally didn’t know his regime is about to payoff illegal alien criminals. Until suddenly he knew. I disagree. Lots of “muricans” have known our lifestyle is unsustainable. But the wealthiest one percent consume more energy and resources than the rest of us combined. Why should the middle and the lower be penalized for the sins of the top? If the top was taken out of the equation for a cost benefit analysis the resulting conservation would be clear. But we know they will never give up their profligate decadent lifestyles. Nope. We will simply have to eat bugs and live in shanties so they can continuing flying, yachting, and eating steak.
I have much the same feelings when he comes up. And the Elite certainly aren’t intending to lead us into this by example. They’re pushers all the way.
But as far as their persons, the few thousand of them do not use up more resources than the rest of us. Reduce the global population drastically and then live like gods? It’s a sound plan technically if they can pull it off. IF. I don’t say sound from an ethical or spiritual pov. We have every right and duty to fight them all the way.
Good discussion upthread between ani and Rulo, the Christian and Eco points of view, respectively. I chime in later downstream.
This post is so dumb it could have come from the fingers of Carghoul himself.
Ha!
I don’t think Russia has the most remaining oil, I think it’s Iraq and Iran.
Both of them have had their production curtailed by the US since 1979, through war and sanctions.
Therefore, they have more oil left than any other country.
Venezuela has huge reserves.By far the largest in the world. Sure it’s thick and hard to refine. Big deal . When the price is right we’ll pump it and burn it. Burning oil isn’t going anywhere, anytime soon. Actually burning oil is a waste of a precious resource as it has so many other uses. The elites will fuel the Gulfstream even at 20 bucks a gallon. I don’t think an electric Gulfstream is in the works. Venezuela is a mess so their oil industry is under utilized.

On a related note, perhaps jim could create a short test to establish posting credentials. For example:
1 where did the first major British offensive occur in ww1? (Basra aka BP)
2 what was the primary japanese target on 12/7/41? (Singapore aka Shell)
3 why did Nixon go off gold std in 1973, the same time kissinger negotiated petro dollar? (Aramco aka KSA)
4 why was Iraq targeted after 9/11? (Basra, again!?)
If people could get focused on the fact that every major war in the 20th century was over oil in the so called age of surplus, what can we image will be the outcome during scarcity?

For the 21st Century – there is the invasion of Afghanistan – to secure an oil pipeline route from Central Asia to a “safe port” in Pakistan … that was a real biggie. For more than a century war has been about oil.
A collateral biggie was controlling the Afghan heroin production industry – the major funder of the CIA.

a former FBI man said that some of the Hells Angels had conspired to murder Mick Jagger in retribution for the Rolling Stones’ lack of support following the concert, and for the negative portrayal of the Angels in the Gimme Shelter film.
The conspirators reportedly used a boat to approach a residence where Jagger was staying on Long Island, New York, the plot failing when the boat was nearly sunk by a storm.
I can’t prove it, but I suspect, that these days, both Jarek and O.G. Hawkins rush up to the site to see what I’ve had to say, probably every hour (or maybe every 10 minutes).
I could be wrong.
Keep it up boys! Esp. keep your eyes on my very pertinent postings on the Great Reset stuff which you both oddly seem to be trying to distract people from focusing on. Almost as if you are controlled opposition! Of course I know you aren’t! Why would anyone try to derail every discussion about the medical tyranny that’s unfolding in the western world? But yet – there it is. Hmmmm.
Well. I’ll keep doing my thang.
Keep on keepin’ on, CFN’ers.
Mary said, “Why would anyone try to derail every discussion about the medical tyranny that’s unfolding in the western world?”
It is not the ONLY important thing to discuss.
Sure, but there’s still a pattern.
Another stupid post by Mary Mary. OG and I routinely post against the Great Reset and the Covid scam. I know it’s awkward that we’re on the same side here, but politics does make for strange bedfellows. Since you are utterly PC otherwise, we’re on different sides on everything else.
You seemed to have separated from the moving line of the Revolution (the dialectic) sometime in the 90’s. Many of us knew that the Blacks didn’t want equality long before that. You’re late to the Party, so behave yourself.
From Alex Berenson:
“Dan Kaminsky died in San Francisco at the age of 42 on April 23, 2021.
He a computer security expert, well-known in that tight-knit community, with almost 100,000 followers on Twitter.
He was also a strong supporter of mRNA Covid vaccinations. On April 16, he tweeted that they were “astoundingly clever.” And on April 12, he proudly reported that he had been “vaxxed!”
Eleven days later he was dead.
“I can’t remember how I came across Kaminsky’s death, but I did. I checked to see if he had publicly reported being vaccinated; he had. And so I tweeted on April 25 (those were the days before Twitter had censored me):
“So another well-known person in his forties – not a true celebrity, but someone with a sizable Twitter following – “died suddenly” Friday. No cause of death given, and his family wants privacy. These cases have popped with disturbing frequency since December.”
I didn’t use Kaminsky’s name. I didn’t think doing so would be appropriate.
Nonetheless his friends knew I was referring to him. And they didn’t like anyone pointing out a possible connection between his death and the vaccines.
His niece put out a statement explaining that he had died of diabetic ketoacidosis, a dangerous complication of diabetes caused by very high blood sugar and low insulin levels. “I think Dan would laugh at the idea of conspiracy theorists promoting anti-vax propaganda through his death,” she wrote.
Case closed, the bluechecks said.
One called me a “filthy liar.” (So many people to sue for defamation, so little time.) Brian Stelter of CNN mentioned Kaminsky’s death too, in a story about “baseless speculation” and the “miraculously effective Covid-19 vaccines.”
https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/on-covid-vaccines-diabetic-ketoacidosis
I watched the memorial service for a local man yesterday on facebook zoom.
I have assumed since he died that it was the vaccine, since he was fine a couple of weeks before he died.
But all they say is “It wasn’t covid”, because that is all liberals care about. 20 year old suddenly drops dead? If it wasn’t covid, it is of no concern. Same as my cousin, when he died. I asked my sister if he was vaxed, and she she didn’t know, all she knew is that ”It wasn’t covid”.
Anyway, no one mentioned what he died of in the service, just like in the obit, just like in the email announcements.
It has finally occurred to me that maybe they know it was the vax, but they don’t want to admit it, so they just carry on all the regular death rituals except for that one.
Anyway, no one mentioned what he died of in the service, just like in the obit, just like in the email announcements.
It’s also the case that if the cause of death is unannounced – especially among the young – them it could be suicide. It can remain unstated either because of shame / stigma, or to reduce the chance of copycat.
That is so bizarre. People can’t admit what’s killing them because they all got jabbed most likely. And to admit it could be deadly is too scary. That, coupled with people just can’t admit when they are wrong sometimes even with a shitload of proof.
We all have that to some extent, of course. But the people in denial that vaccines injure and kill are really REALLY indoctrinated.
Mary, just as the vaxxers cannot prove the shot is benign, the anti vaxxers cannot prove it is significantly dangerous or a mass killer. Your guess is as good as theirs and vice versa.
Time will tell! Arguing about it over and over proves nothing.
That is not true, John. Although the VAERS site is underused, it still shows significant danger with the GMO injectibles.
Also, we have social media, which allows us to communicate horizontally with other citizens. The top down media and government spokespeople tell us “It is safe”, but the population sharing stories of death and disability says otherwise.
If the widow had said it was the vax, she would be shunned in the liberal community.
So she kept her mouth shut. Or, at least that’s what I think.
It was not suicide. The family was at the bedside. Also, the family are crusaders against suicide.
The world might BE ON FIRE, but it getting cold around here (NW Ct)
I’d like to hear Jim’s opinion on the commitments Corporations and Nations are agreeing to in Glasgow: no more mining coal, closing coal fired power plants, shutting off investment in the 7 major western oil companies, stopping oil imports into western Europe and NAmerica, deconstructing natgas pipelines and banning the use of natgas for cooking and to heat homes, prohibiting the manufacture of gasoline powered cars, closing gas stations … that barely scratches the surface. Yesterday, in Glasgow, but also in London, Melbourne and Toronto, hundreds of thousands of Young Activists were in the streets protesting … to what end? Well, for governments “to do more in the fight against Climate Change”. In fact they were in the streets demanding a lower standard of living, inveighing their govts to choke off energy supply. A few of the Protesters were interviewed; what I heard was a lot of utopian platitudes. Nothing about people freezing inside their houses in the winter, living in darkness because they can no longer afford utility bills, stranded because gasoline is $10 per gallon and an $80,000 EV is beyond their reach.
I don’t know whether it’s more comical or pathetic to hear these brainwashed sheep demanding more poverty and oppression from their Globalist masters. Well, they don’t speak for me.
And whether it’s climate change, COVID, or “national security”, we are constantly being told we must give up our money and our freedom for the greater good. In light of history, this should set off alarm bells in any reasonably aware mind.
I was just thinking this a.m. about the idiotic ‘daylight savings time’ just more manipulation of the masses. Yet more ‘conditioning’ they put us through. They started out subtle, now look…
And it’s damaging the whole ecology of the planet, this speeding up and slowing down every 6 months. Someone should alert Greta. LOL
HOW DARE YOU?!?!
YOU HAVE SPOILED MY CHILDHOOD!!!
Chill out, Greta!
Her parents ruined her childhood by making a performing puppet out of her.
Living at 37.8° from the Equator, with long hot summers, I dislike Daylight Saving a lot. It might be useful in higher latitudes, but for many, it steals an hour from the cool blue of morning, and returns it to us as yet another one in the hot glary funk of late afternoon.
Very few people can go to the beach or out on their yachts, and use that extra hour in the way its proponents claim.
Daylight Savings Time – designed to give the masters another hour on their yachts, – designed to give us another hour in the fields.
I always loved that scene in “Gone With the Wind”:
“Ahs da forman ’round Tara, Ahs says when it’s quitting time!”

I hear you. Arizona does not observe DST, who wants another hour of 110 weather in the evenings.
Yeah, look at a map of the time zones in America: they’re not long straight lines like the Meridians, but rather very jagged.
Yesterday, in Glasgow, but also in London, Melbourne and Toronto, hundreds of thousands of Young Activists were in the streets protesting … to what end? Well, for governments “to do more in the fight against Climate Change”. In fact they were in the streets demanding a lower standard of living, inveighing their govts to choke off energy supply.
The standard responses are (a) it will cost nations far more if they don’t transition to carbon-neutral clean energy in the next few decades, and (b) the green revolution will lead to thousands of good-paying satisfying careers.
There is certainly merit in both those arguments, but for me the reality remains that Global Warming is a thing, but isn’t the highest priority for most nations – poverty, pollution, over-population, energy, water, and food security … and so on … are much more urgent.
And secondly, you can’t “transition” to a clean energy future by cutting off your current fossil-fuel-based energy and transportation systems too quickly. But I think a lot of currently wealthy Western nations are going to find that out the hard way.
The tough nuts in China, Russia, India, Brazil, etc … they’re not having any of it. The US will continue to say the right things, but not really do much.
Converting from FF to GND, takes us from hands on manual labor to high tech. The amount of labor required by renewables is trivial and low pay compared to FF maintenance. The Biden promise of higher pay jobs after shutting down the pipeline was a bald faced lie.
The Arctic is another debacle. Biden shuts down drilling in the North. In the meantime, Russia exploits Siberia for oil and gas. They will win!!! Europe is learning this bitter lesson right now!
The biggest lie is that we will replace FF with renewables. This statement is dangerous for the future of humanity. We need every form of energy we can create. Wind and solar will be needed in addition to FF. FF will increase in demand along with all the other forms.
So the real deal is how to control the outflow of CO2 from FF processing not eliminate it. Sequestering it is one idea, controlling combustion more efficiently is another. Countries that try to eliminate FF will be causing great damage to themselves. The Democratic Party in the US is so very dangerous right now because of their stands on AGW.
Methane is even more dangerous than CO2, and the Arctic regions thawing pose a huge threat. Control of methane release will be critical. Besides, we need the Natural gas for energy.
We have been listening to AGW zealots for two generations now, with no real solutions in sight. Glasgow was a joke, but just the latest one.
With the remaining capital in the world, new developments in alternative energy are required. Nuclear is number one, but way ahead of solar or wind. The energy returned by the latter two does not even justify the cost. Hydrogen burning, fuel cells, is dangerous and the amount of regulation will be mind numbing. Just remember Apollo 13 when Jack Swigert scrubbed the fuel cells. Boom, end of mission. Sequester CO2, maybe use it concentrated to store heat energy. Harness the methane release to use as fuel, landfills do it now.
The emphasis of solar and wind is a path back to the 1800s. The people who think this is the way to go are either crazy or just plain stupid. Right now they are being used by a group of really repugnant politicians in the Deep State to retain power.
Well by definition of Globalism, the “nations” will be going bye bye. Prince Charles said that they would be “helped” to change by some kind of Global force, one “like” an army, lol.
Yeah, remember that as oil and other components of EVs, windmills and solar panels increase in cost, so will the assembled cost of renewables, making them uncompetitive.
The real problem with all of global warming is there is no economic alternative now.
Hurry up fusion, you may be our only hope!
BTW, the activists are the same as all activists, young stupid people with no real solutions to what they are bitching about.
#1 on this list is Greta.

Here’s the video I was telling you about – the hunters going missing never to be found, or their bodies found much later on ground that had already been searched.
Speaking of EVs.
Our neighbors a few houses down went the EV route. And, ofc, because no one wants the inconvenience of not being able to charge at home, or not being able to charge without paying an arm and a leg for electricity, they opted to install a solar-panel system to charge the thing.
Here in Germany, a Tesla costs about 60-140k, depending on model and equipment.
I estimate they dropped about 65-70k on the car and another 50k on the solar pane system.
Over EUR 100k to go “green.”
Owl, apparently with this new Rivian truck, beside the $73,000 purchase price, one also has to buy a $15,000 per year ‘subscription’; I’m not sure whati it’s for, think it’s to use their proprietary charging system.
Incredible. And between the environmental damage from battery production, mining for materials (including the human costs), and generation of electricity, the “earth” is no better off either.
PT Barnum would be proud.
Nothing either about the current Solar Minimum that promises a nice long cold spell of weather for a few centuries.
OG – Janet is indeed my ex- who needlessly destroyed our children’s father with her lies, reneges, deceits, crimes and Human Rights Violations.
While I empathize with this (been through some similar fun myself ten years back, though of course not the same details as in your situation), I would suggest that you must know you are the only person who can allow yourself to be “destroyed”.
At a certain point some of these things will resolve in a good way for you through your efforts, but the others you will have to let go and just know for yourself what happened, and forget about everyone who sees it differently.
I hope you get some of your money back, and I hope her lawyers have to face the gavel themselves…but in the event those things don’t happen, it is still up to you, not them, to be happy with your reality. Good luck.
I hear you Mr Mango. And I would add:
Clearly, we all have lives filled with many traumas, regrets, and disappointments. But I would hope in this forum we can concentrate on issues of more universal interest.
Great posts, Mango and hmuller.
I went through a tempestuous relationship and break-up early 90s with a total psycho. Nursed my wounds for half a year, then got on with my life. Found out a few years later through the grapevine that she’d (then) recently died of cancer. Solidified my understanding of how foolish it is to hold onto rage and hate. As the religious saying goes, it’s like picking up a burning coal to throw at your adversary. It only burns yourself.
Speaking of which:
“I’m guessing Janet had her hands full, given O.G. has already told us he was a drunk during his entire marriage. What fun that must have been for her and his kids.”
Our 500-posts-each-JHK-entry resident narcissist, no surprise, couldn’t help herself. She had to weigh in by the pretense of feeling sorry for a stranger’s kids. How classy.
I’m guessing Janet had her hands full, given O.G. has already told us he was a drunk during his entire marriage. What fun that must have been for her and his kids. Kids whose parents are alcoholics have terrible emotional problems throughout life because of it.
And you were correct 100% that he is projecting his wife’s personae onto me, and uses me as a punching bag proxy for Janet instead of getting the help he needs. And some of the other commenters up here are just fine with that, and encourage his behavior. Shame on them.
Thankfully, I am quite able to stand up for myself and don’t really care what some anonymous addict on a comments thread thinks about me.

This is a flat out lie Mary. It is quite obvious you DO care. It is the thing you talk about the most.
I care about setting the record straight and I enjoy defending myself against lies. Has nothing to do with liking or not liking anyone.
Yet you refuse to explain (or recant, let alone apologize) why you have publicly-declared me a “hypocrite” that is “holier than thou” with “hypocrisy off the charts” that “hump[s]” the Bible.

You come off as an aggressive, untreated addict, expecting a whole board of commenters to act as your therapists.

Thank you for being one of the very few on CFN who hold this raving bully accountable for her damaging words, Q. Choosing Right over Wrong is rare in this modern World of corrupt allegiances. God has seen to it that Good v Evil be revealed as choosing Evil is “easy” while choosing Good is difficult and often ostracizing.
Her screed is chalked full of lies, misquotes and misrepresentations as her m.o. is identical to millions of women today.
For the record, I never said what she tells you that I said. Shocking, I know, on account of she’s usually such a reliable source on her opponents’ thoughts, motives and words.
I never drank a drop* of alcohol from August 2000 through to January 2012 while Janet lived a life of pampered “Professional Shopper” and “Sisters’ Lunches.” Janet last earned a dime in August 1997.
Janet was fine as long as she needed me and my big pay cheques and ginormous annual bonuses. As soon as I needed her, however, that’s when we had problems (notwithstanding Mary’s misandry).
“If I hear, ‘Love, Support and Affection’ one more time, I’m gonna puke!” Yet Mary knows that Molson Canadian is to blame. You see, complete lack of information/knowledge/context does not deter her misandry and corrupt m.o.

Even though I have explained that I suffer from Situational Depression from my once-in-a-lifetime $6,000,000 gross life’s work being extorted from me (and now facing unJust destitution) by my crooked lawyers in cahoots with her lies, reneges, deceits, crimes and Human Rights Violations and that Canadian Drs. always siding with “professionals” over their Hypocratic Oath and The Truth, she victim-blames me because I won’t get Better watching YouTube videos for fuck sakes!

Mr M,
FYI – I had top-percentile success for the first 50 years of my life. Academically then Corporate ladder-climbing then 1%er income nearer the Corporate top.
They stole it from me and I now face destitution with no recourse.
They destroyed my successful life and I cannot do what I did circa 1992-2014 again. I’m now FUBARed.
You can victim-blame all you like while not knowing shit and assuming that I am Wrong or deserved it or am missing what I need do now at 56.
I had Drs. Lin & Scherer document that I needed to heal with my financial security intact. Instead, they corruptly determined that I hood-winked these expert Drs., took my financial security from me for their Porsches, Escalades & Mediterranean cruises and left me for dead. My fault? Ya think?

FYI – That’s why I built https://truvinyl.tv
I have not worked full-time in an office bldg with office people since moving out of TO and telecommuting in 1998.
The plan was TruVinyl with:
1) Budget to properly market it
2) Financial security to safely fail
Now I’m fucked. I can’t work with people, can’t market TruVinyl and no longer have mt hard-earned, stolen financial security.
Fucked. TruStory
Most people were not denied their Human Right to heal while their hard-earned financial security was stolen from them by their own lawyers and benefactor with their government’s rubber-stamp.
Sounds like a description of about 80% of divorces in general. Clearly some extra foul play in yours, but the story is the same, and the guy (usually) has to deal with all of that without “time to heal”.
And sorry truvinyl didn’t work out. Good enough idea, but YouTube and Spotify have a monopoly on that entire universe now anyway…
Most NORMAL people.
With all of your amassed experience I would recommend consulting.
You can even tell the clients paying you why they’re wrong at every turn, and they’ll respect you for it (for a while).
Consulting what to whom? I built a mission-critical system for a major bank based on Excel 4.0 & Word 2.0 on WFW.
I gained financial security running my legacy system. Then they stole it all from me.
I needed to heal before they denied me my Human Rights to do so. I despise people and they hate me.
Consulting what to whom?
You assume I am the problem when you haven’t a clue.
Or perhaps you could be an Anger Management Counselor, then.
I mean, c’mon. You’re seriously checking yourself as irrelevant at 56?
Believe me, I know what it’s like to be really good with tech tools you’ve used for 15-20 years, while new and better tools pass by unnoticed until you need to learn the new ones.
Then you either learn, create something for yourself, or you don’t.
Other option is Walmart greeter. Those guys are asleep half the time, indifferent and surly the rest.
MrMango – this about says it all.
” I despise people and they hate me.”
OG,
With all respect, are you familiar with Lenny Bruce? A fixation on his legal troubles destroyed him utterly. I have watched your U-Tube videos and have several asides;
I am surprised, that, with your obvious intellect, you actually listen and believe that which lawyers tell you…and further, you expect truth and justice.
You further expect level treatment from divorce/separation proceedings, where women have a distinct advantage.
My advice is worth what you pay for it…nothing. But I can only suggest you quit what you are doing, salvage what you can, and try to find a bit of peace of mind, or you will further be devoured by the madness in which you find yourself.
You have my sympathy.
Thank you, EF.
What a breath of fresh air to speak to someone who looks at my situation objectively as opposed to a massive Shit Show barrage of character assassination.
Your advice is well-intended and well-received. Again, thank you.

I entered this mess in 2015 extremely naive. I had played by all the rules accumulating over $2,100,000 net worth by age 50. I thought that I was entitled to Justice as a Canadian tax-payer in Canada. I Really did. Naive cubed.
You are 100% correct in your assessment and in your advice. My 2018 documentary was intended to Right Wrongs yet, somehow, I am both insane (when that is Best for Janet) but faking insanity (when that is Best for Janet). Nightmare.
People ask me, “Why did you …”
I’m like, “I was in severe mental crisis!”
And they are lke, “Ya … but why did you …”
Nightmare. I had 2 expert Drs. diagnose, prescribe and document that, for the sake of my mental health, I needed to heal with my financial security intact. Instead, they called me a faker and used that name-callng to Justify stealing my life’s work from me.
“Now go get Better, faker … even though there’s nothing Wrong with you.”
Fucking nightmare. I had no idea in 2015. Babe in the woods.
I would not wish such a nightmare on my worst enemy. TruStory

Sadly, I cannot follow your Good advice, EF. I can’t put it behind me. My next Court date is Jan. 18, 2022 as Janet demands yet more blood from this stone. Sad but True.

Mind-blowing article, by Whitney Webb. The depth of the evil is just so astounding.
Operation Warp Speed is Using a CIA-Linked Contractor to Keep Covid-19 Vaccine Contracts Secret
$6 billion in Covid-19 vaccine contracts awarded by Operation Warp Speed have been doled out by a secretive government contractor with deep ties to the CIA and DHS, escaping regulatory scrutiny and beyond the reach of FOIA requests.

I try to ignore Mary, but she seduces me and then mocks me for falling. Maybe she needs me to call to her stupid? Knows it’s the Truth, craves it?
I am the force that affirms, Thesis. She is the force that denies, Antithesis. Together we will produce a child, Synthesis. Since I have more Truth, the child will look more like me. She may well never hold the child, it being hateful or invisible to her, but I will.
But in Tribute, Mary’s presence has enriched me. Helped me to realize how dreadful and deadly the radical Feminists are, and how we simply can’t ever make the same mistake again of allowing Feminism to rise in our nations.
And thank God for Puck! He’s been acting silly (as is his way) about Witches for a year or more now. But then at just the right moment he starts quoting from the Dutton book, now on my list to read. Truly masterful timing by him.

The real knee slapper coming out of Glasgow is the announcement that South Africa is getting $8.5 billion for the purposes of “transitioning to renewables” haha …. one of the most corrupt countries on earth, literally falling apart at the seams especially after the devastating riots last summer where infrastructure was targeted and destroyed; really finishing off what the white minority govt had built since no maintenance to speak of had been done on railroads, roads, bridges, power plants and the potable water system since 1992, leaving the place in shambles. $8.5 billion for wind turbines and solar panels LoL. Shutting down coal fired plants that are a wreck and inoperable already; the upshot will be ANC honchos going on a massive shopping spree, yes, plenty of bling (which they love) but also mansions in the burbs, Bentley and Jag automobiles, helicopters, and plenty of advanced weaponry to arm their private security forces. Rest assured, the last thing this free schwag from Whitey will be used for is windmills and solar panels. When the coal plants are shut it will be TS for South Africans, they’ll just have to get used to living in the dark all of the time, not half the time like they do now.
getting = a gift? let us know in tomorrows thread.
Kamala Harris: I admire Jacob Blake.
They should have sent him over to represent Black Americans.
Colt Firearms will assuredly benefit from the $100 billion Climate Change handouts to the 3rd world, scheduled to begin now, and last to the end of times. M4 arguably being the state of the art assault rifle, I expect orders to be pouring into Hartford from dictators, tribal chiefs, commandantes, generalissimos and pasha from across the entire southern hemisphere. Who said Climate Change schwag isn’t good for business?
brh – the windmills and solar panels (if any are installed) will be stripped down for scrap within weeks.
More likely scenario is the materials “fall off the truck” before delivery.
They’ll go for the copper wire first, then work their way to the aluminum components. The smart ones tho will dismantle the hard to reach generators, the units that produce electricity, made of rare earth metals that ought to bring in some pretty substantial Rand on the African black market.
A whole new industry in SA, jalopy trucks headed over pockmarked roads to organized scrapyards outside Capetown, an apocalyptic scene out of the film District 9, loaded down with looted solar panels torn off roofs, wind turbine blades cut up, copper wire, aluminum fixtures, and assorted chunks of steel and iron.
I read PJ O Rourke. he related that This happened in Albania. steal the railroad ties?
What did they steal the railway ties for? To go with the railway shirts?
Oy.
See, you try to do something nice…(or so the old adage goes)
Please. Energy. Covid. Geopolitics. Sports. Food. Lizards and Illuminati, I don’t care.
Anything but endless petty bickering.
But…bicker away. Not a damn thing I can do about it.
I tried ignoring them, but when I do that it seems to ramp up even more.
Permanent victims don’t want help. They just want to complain endlessly and get sympathy, which they then resent. If you give them any solutions they get really angry (as we’ve seen above).
He didn’t provide me with any solutions, you dope.
Like he knows my career and I don’t!
Wow!
Yet again! You are telling everyone my thoughts and my motives. Completely Wrong but “Attack! Attack! Attack!”
I Really am a permanent victim, Proud Mary. I Really did have my top-percentile success for 50 years stolen from me. I Really can’t do it again. It was a once-in-a-lifetime that I grossed over $6,000,000 at BMO. These are the Facts.
I am not some hypothetical person in some imagined text book.
I Really am FUBARed here in Real life.
I do not turn to CFN for sympathy or career advice. I merely spew Truth while constantly defending myself against unJust allegations while you blaspheme our Heavenly Father.
May God have mercy on your corrupt, blasphemous soul.
I will see you on Judgement Day, you sick woman.
I Really did have my top-percentile success for 50 years stolen from me. I Really can’t do it again.
I believe you in both of these statements.
The solution then is to move forward with expectations of a less than top-percentile source of income (as well as a revised personal identity, which you’ve made clear by now was largely derived from said top-percentile income).
Again, you have less than 1% of the information required while you attempt to consul me and my dead career.
I appreciate your efforts. Thank you.
However, you offer nothing of use with less than 1% of the information that I haven’t spent thousands of hours on with 100% of the information.
Your advice on my FUBARness is nice but useless. Worse than useless, actually, as it was condescending in your assessment that I do not measure up to “Most people.”
It seems that you expect me to be nice rather than Honest. Consultants sometimes do that. I do not. I tell The Truth whether appreciated or not.
Honestly correcting inaccuracies is not “bickering.”
Your advice on my FUBARness is nice but useless.
That fact is quite clear, yes.
Like he knows my career and I don’t!
You literally described it to us.
You know now?
Ok, you tell me:
What did I do at BMO and how can I parlay that into a single consultng billable hour let alone a decade of income?
Mr M thinks that his assertions being corrected with facts, Truth, analysis and logic is “bickering.”
Mr M is a nice guy with a high school crush.
Mr M views telling me what “Most people” would do after 99%+ of people could not even possibly be in my spot facing destitution as I approach 60 thus infering that I am deficient vis-a-vis “Most people” sans a clue as him “try[ing] to do something nice.” TruStory
What did he expect me to reply with? “Consulting! I never thought of that. I am ever so blessed to have you guide my career.”
Oy indeed.

Our dear Queen Lizard is a shape-shifting reptile whether you Believe it or not, Mr M. This realm is not the only one. I know that for a Fact. You will know this too. Honest to God you will.

I predict 1 of 3 outcomes from this weekend:
1) I get banned from CFN.
2) Proud Mary gets banned from CFN.

I will Greatly Respect his decision whether it is 1) or 2) or 3). It’s his nation. It’s his blog. He will do what he Believes to be Best for CFN (as well he should).
Regardless, God will Judge all of us. God knows our hearts. God knows our thoughts. God knows our motives.
God knows you.
Mr M thinks that his assertions being corrected with facts, Truth, analysis and logic is “bickering.”
No, I am directly referring to the two of you.
And so is everyone else.
That didn’t even make sense.
Ah.
What did he expect me to reply with? “Consulting! I never thought of that. I am ever so blessed to have you guide my career.”
You asked. I gave you the answer any aging professional would be offered first.
Right. I left BMO in the Fall of 2014. Do you think that “Consulting” never occurred to me? And do you think that I’m “bickering” when I tell you that your uninformed suggested “solution” does not apply to me in any way whatsoever by my simply asking you, “Consulting what to whom?” Would that not be the most important part of following your completely useless “solution” to fix my FUBARness?
You keep weighing in with useless brain farts and then get upset when I say that they stink.
And the entire time this bull shit has a foundation of I am somehow lesser than “Most people” for not impossibly following your “solution” that I go “Consulting.” Ya think?
See, this is why I have to keep pointing out that you are a nice guy but none too bright, Mr M.
I do so on account of you being a nice guy that is obviously none too bright.

As for “not a damn thing that [you] can do about it:” Wrong. Stop brain farting. That will do it. TruStory

It’s being more heavily suppressed here than in Europe. Strange since it’s prima facie evidence that the vax is dangerous, with the dangers outweighing the rewards for many.
You would think that they would be suppressing this over there as well.
I see where a crowd surge at a Houston rock concert killed 8 (crushed to death, I believe), but the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol only killed 7. Hmmm. Wonder which Amerika will hear most about in the coming years? You tell me and we’ll both know. What’s a human life truly worth, anyway?
$5M, according to some guy I saw in a tv show who played a character that worked in life insurance.
$5M Um OK, Minneapolis figured Saint George was worth 27 million and that was before the trial even determined liability.
Well if I had known we were talking about George Floyd here, I would’ve certainly revised the number!
I was referring to a “standard” person.
$5 million.
In other words, the way fiat money is tanking, nothing.

Mr Mango, Ms Starlight – of course you should keep posting. You both always have interesting perspectives and an entertaining way of presenting them.
Some people should quit posting. Some people should find a heavy rock, some rope, and a bridge.
I came for the main article, but I stayed for the commentariat. True story.
Lol thank you Blackbird. A little flip of the script will do I’m sure and tomorrow is another day.
Return to your roots. Decolonize your mind. Remember the tranquility of the soft light under the canopy. Remember the whispers of the breeze in the leaves. The ways of that world before their cities and towers. Remember.
What JHK describes is self-exclusion by Blacks from the education system. Why is this so? I can only speculate as truth is hard to come by with rampant self-deception by all parties to this complete fucking debacle.
For the longest time, in my own ethnic group, education was for sissies with all that reading and writing and shit like that. Coloring, painting, cutting, pasting, you gotta be kidding me. Singing? Get lost. Sitting still in the classroom? Doing your homework? Compliance with some simple rules? Not a chance. No way.
For sure not for any self-respecting boy who aspired to the high regard of his peers. The consequences for the individual and the group as a whole were what you might expect. It took a while to get through the thick skulls of my compadres, generations in fact, that denigrating schooling was extremely limiting. Work, yes, the classroom, no. Yet without the basic knowledge imparted in class, how do you not look and sound like a fool?
The parallels between my own ethnics and Blacks are scant because of very different histories, the whole slavery thing and Jim Crow not least. But when I see the behavior of Blacks and Black boys in particular, I wonder if the same or similar attitudes aren’t at play. If you study, if you bow to authority, especially if you bend to the rules of an alien people you are no man worthy of the name. If you have any pride you don’t act like they do, you don’t talk like they do. And you don’t associate with them. I know insularity because I saw it, I was part of it, and I know how it can weigh you down.
I’m not Black. I was a high achiever. It took some intestinal steel to stare down the looks of derision. When I married an outsider there was incredulity. But my answer was simple, do you want to be in the driver’s seat or not? Do you want to earn or not? My mother took flak for letting me leave town for university. But reality sunk in, and it was my own generation that was the first to smell the coffee. Whether Blacks come to the realization is anyone’s guess. Maybe they won’t. Right now it sure doesn’t look good.
I respect the unwillingness to submit….but only if you have better ideas, plans and solutions in your pocket to back it up
Every ethnic group that crossed the water realized, some sooner, some later, that you had to get with the program. Blacks haven’t yet and it looks like they won’t anytime soon. As for better ideas, plans and solutions, do you see any? I don’t.
Nope. None. My biggest criticism of black america , to generalize grossly and completely, is not that they’re rebels, but that they’re incredibly lazy and shallow rebels, overall. It’s too bad, because boy do we need some quality rebels around here.
About that Jan 6 thing, the msm painted it as ‘an assault on our democracy’.
OUR democracy? Whose democracy exactly would that be?
But never mind that. What I saw was farce, a joke, a mess, a rabble, disorganized, disorderly, with no objective, and surely no ‘assault’, let alone on somebody’s democracy.
There’s a lot of discontent and restiveness but no organization, no plan. IOW nobody’s got their shit together, certainly not nearly enough to be any threat to the status quo.
No quality rebels, that’s for damn sure.
yes, agree on jan 6
All our “rebels” have been shallow and lazy. Rock stars, actors, guys with cool hair and tattoos who “speak out” about fake issues like white policemen delighting in shooting all black men dead are fake rebels. Where are these people now? All 100% compliant and jabbed up.
Every ethnic group that crossed the water realized, some sooner, some later, that you had to get with the program. Blacks haven’t yet and it looks like they won’t anytime soon.
However Africans were captured, shipped, and enslaved for centuries. Nobody else was. Everyone else who came (pretty much – apart from English convicts)) were free-choosing immigrants seeking a better life, and they landed in America as free people.
I suspect this makes a lot of difference – the arc (or shadow) of history is really long – many generations.
Yes. It is the shadow of the ancestral plight that dogs us, all ways.
If you are of a praying bent, this might be a focus for your own foibles.
Ianw
“…nobody else was.” hmm, perhaps reading history without the emphasis on ‘african’ would help with understanding – there are Irish and Chinese who would differ with you. I would also like to confirm that the africans you speak of, are the ones that were captured in tribal wars by and with other africans – who, in turn, sold them as slaves. As for the rest of it – no other ethnic group has had the ‘bar lowered, the assistance given, and the opportunities presented’ – all advantageous, by the way – that the blacks in this country have been given. And here we are, at this point in history, where those who have never been slaves and do not, for the most part; use the ‘steps upwards’ that they have been given; continue to think themselves as downtrodden… The africans brought to these shores have it ‘better’ than the africans remaining in Africa. You’re welcome.
Wow, finally some real info on Covid.
Researchers at Oxford University may have discovered why the small population of folks get the serious reaction in their lungs from the virus. The research indicates it is the lung’s reaction to the virus that causes the serious illness. It is caused by DNA differences that inhibit a gene switch.
60% of people of South Asian lineage have the variant, 15% of European descent and only 2% of Afro-Caribbean descent. The large number in Asia might plain the India surge.L
The gene affected is called LZTFL1 and air affects the way the lung cells properly respond to the virus. It does not affect the immune system and one researcher stated that the vaccine should cancel out the increased risk of the DNA variant removing the intense disease reaction in the lungs.
John az,
I appreciate your constant search for verifiable reality in the covid disinfo landscape.
Howevers… I dont necessarily trust this Oxford stuff. I’m suspicious of genetic explanations like this…how do they know. And it would be convenient in this case…”it’s a purely genetic cause!” and…also ” vaccine fix that right up!”
I’m suspicious. Why the confidence in this? Hopefully not the Oxford brand name..
Here is the problem
Smallpox vaccine would not have been brought on the scene as its response was not 100%, neither was polio, antibiotics or any other advance in medicine because of human variance.
I can picture Pasteur watchers telling him that the germ theory of disease was a figment of his imagination.
The search for truth in medicine is on going, the Potential for mRNA therapies are very positive when they get the initial problems figured out. What ever one believes.
Let me know what research centers to believe in if Oxford is not good enough. Please do not being up the phony folks that are used to justify much of the discourse on the blog. Their opinions are just that, opinion. No real explanation of the phenomena of Covid exists. At least this finding supports big observations of the course of this disease.
I’m skeptical that “peak medicine” is not long gone by.
Skeptical that mRna will ever become anything.
And i’ll listen to anybody’s research, i just dont trust any brand names over any others, these days.
I feel like dna…blaming any particular medical event or quality on a gene…is an easy, and way too often lazy route for research to take. Im suspicious that the level of potential for speculation in a conclusion like that is very high and kind of easy to camoflauge as harder science than it is.
im just posting my intuitions and suspicions, not claiming i have anything definitive here. Havent read article you have.
@GR22
But it really is about genes and DNA even to the point of if you react one way or another.
Why do some people live to over a 100 even though they smoke and drink? Its in their genes.
Why do some people get sick while others don’t?
Genes and immune response.
Every virus actually changes our DNA just a little.
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/11/161128151050.htm
When viruses infect us, they can embed small chunks of their genetic material in our DNA. Although infrequent, the incorporation of this material into the human genome has been occurring for millions of years. As a result of this ongoing process, viral genetic material comprises nearly 10 percent of the modern human genome. Over time, the vast majority of viral invaders populating our genome have mutated to the point that they no longer lead to active infections. But, as scientists funded by the National Institutes of Health have demonstrated, they are not entirely dormant.
Let me know what research centers to believe in if Oxford is not good enough.
Indeed – we’ve each had two shots of Astra-Zeneca (developed in Oxford, and different to the mRNA vaccines) … we’re still standing up and not bumping into walls.
I think the scare-mongering about the effects of the vaccines is precisely that – it is much worse to be infected with Covid-19 … especially if you’re over 60.
ianw
Have you actually listened to or read any of the evidence on which the ‘scare-mongering’ is based?
Listen to this interview and get back to us. The funeral director being interviewed is in England.

And a more recent one.
https://unlimitedhangout.com/2020/10/investigative-reports/operation-warp-speed/
I haven’t listened to the last one yet, so we’ll both be learning together.
Perhaps you’re in the UK, if you’ve had the AZ ‘vaccine’.
I had AZ too. I most certainly won’t be having it again (based on evidence). Or any of the others.
Incidentally – or not – I’ve had an unexplained cough (daily but so far mild) for about 6 weeks now – no obvious reason, such as a cold.
I checked and discovered that coughing can be a symptom of early-stage emphysema. I’ve never smoked. Or worked in a mill …
Maybe it’s nothing, but I’m watching. There’s certainly no use in seeing a doctor about it. Most of them are currently psychotic – those that aren’t knowingly complicit.
BTW Astra Zeneca/Oxford works in the same way as the mRNA vaxxes, except that it uses DNA to deliver the genetic instructions. It gets the body to produce spike proteins in exactly the same way.
You may have been given a covert placebo (e.g. if you had absolutely no reaction), in which case all you have to do is take no boosters (and risk ending up in a camp, like many others, including me).
I hope something kind like a quick cardiac arrest will get me before that happens. But not yet.
BTW, if I survive till March I’ll be 70, and I’m still not taking any more clot shots.
If enough people catch on to what is going on, they’re just going to use something worse. And people are catching on, but slowly.
GA,
There may be some doctors you could visit who have no part in any of this.
Here in Germany, I discovered one through our local Basis (political party) group. He’s a brave guy. Even though masks are required by law in all indoor spaces here, he has refused to implement this rule. He has been lucky that his office has not yet been raided, as the offices of similar physicians have.
There may not be many bold enough to stand on their own two feet and resist tyranny, but there are some out there. Perhaps ask around.
Thanks, Nightowl. The trouble with the NHS is that it’s hard enough to find a practice that will take you on these days, because they’re all overburdened. I’ve been with mine since 1978, and have no complaints other than that they now think I’m a fruitloop (they haven’t said that!) for telling them about microclotting from the vaxx. For anything else they’ve been fine.
There are private docs but they tend to work through conglomerates like Spire, so they might be just the same.
I have occasionally wondered about emailing the UK Column people – the Scottish correspondent may be from or around Edinburgh. I was thinking earlier about asking them about anti-pass groups in Edinburgh. Not for protesting in the street – I’m not fit enough to be manhandled by Police Scotland – just to have some contacts for the future.
Ianw: Scaremongering? In my circle of acquaintances at its broadest extent, I know ONE person who had China flu…NINE people who have died shortly after taking the clot shot. It was your choice to take it, which I respect, but the 50% of us who are sick of all this just want to be left alone and for this hysteria to end. BTW, I have chronic lung illnesses and am NOT scared of China flu because I have PROVEN medicines against it like Ivermectin, Vit D and zinc.
