Boldly Into the Chaos

“When you give power over law to people who see law only as a weapon with which to get enemies, you destroy the rule of law. That’s what the dumbshit white liberals have done.” — Paul Craig Roberts

     Everybody I talk to feels a gnawing tingle of dread in their livers and lights as our world tilts into the season of darkness. The Party of Chaos rules solely on the basis of insults to its citizens. They are certainly trying to provoke something like civil war, something they can label “white supremacy,” as if that would justify declaring a state of siege — an emergency suspension of rights to speak, to move, to assemble, to resist the sticky pseudopods of the malevolent Blob that Washington has become.

     These insults are all obvious untruths, and behind them, you can be sure, lurk great crimes. Crimes, of course, call for adjudication and payment. That has been the American way. So, naturally, the Party of Chaos, stolidly based against the American way, has hijacked the law to prevent it from being applied to them. They have spoiled and dishonored every authority in this land and disgracing the law is their ultimate prize.

      It’s hard to say which of their insults is the worst, they are all so gross and arrant, but the untruths around the Covid-19 vaccine operation seem the most conspicuously sinister. CDC director Mandy K. Cohen is still pushing these shots for all Americans down to six-month-old babies, despite a freight train of evidence that they are useless for preventing the disease and blatantly harmful, especially for children. She is either very stupid, dangerously wicked, or insane. You decide:

     Last autumn, the “uptake” on Covid boosters was 17 percent. That number should not induce a whole lot of confidence this time around among the CDC officials and their masters from Pfizer Inc. Papers are now circulating that say all the Covid variants coming out of the woodwork are lab-made pathogens. The CDC and its sister public health agencies lied extravagantly about the original virus, of course, and now everybody knows it. Who is left to fool in our country? If they move to surreptitiously release something with a much higher fatality rate — to reignite fear in the population — they could easily put their own lives in jeopardy, since it’s unlikely their labs might as quickly develop a vaccine they could protect themselves with.

     Calling for more lockdowns and school closures won’t go over so well this time either, and federal enforcement efforts will be laughed at in the states where a majority is not insane. Working people know they’ll be ruined financially again if the schools are not available for babysitting. Even the states under the sway of mass formation psychosis, such as my New York, will be deeply divided. New Yorkers are sick of the vile automaton Kathy Hochul, even down in New Woke City.

      The Ukraine war caper has pretty clearly lost its appeal as a supposed crusade for “democracy.” The yellow and blue flags vanished from the front porches and car bumpers months ago. It was a lie from the get-go that we have any national interest in that sad sack country. Our own government engineered the fiasco, and from every angle it has been a dead loss for all parties on our side. Ukraine has been reduced to a failed state in-waiting; Euroland has sacrificed its industrial economy for nothing; and the USA has squandered its last bits of prestige among other nations in this ignominious game of Let’s You and Him Fight. Also, Americans have begun to notice that the billions funneled into Mr. Zelensky’s cadre of neo-Nazis and kleptocrats is money that is not going to places like East Palestine, Ohio, Lahaina, Maui, and the towns along our tortured southern border from Matamoros to Tijuana. Even the people who supposedly elected “Joe Biden” are becoming a little concerned about blundering into World War Three over the mess created by Victoria Nuland & Company.

     How did we come to the point that it is now illegal to question the veracity of elections in America? And to charge a former president of the US for doing it? Much as the deck is stacked against Mr. Trump, his enemies have stupidly stuffed that deck full of jokers that are liable to shriek and giggle their way out of court when turned face-up. Judge Tanya Chutkan of the DC District Court is one of the jokers, having already branded Mr. Trump a seditious insurrectionist in the trials of many J-6 demonstrators she sent to jail on longer sentences than the prosecutors even asked for. DA Fani Willis of Fulton County, Ga, is another joker who constructed a career-ending booby-trap for herself, and DA Alvin Bragg of New York County (Manhattan) will not be the one laughing when he’s finally bum-rushed out of his law license.

     An interesting fate awaits “Joe Biden” in the months ahead as the revenue stream of the Biden family foreign consulting firm gets audited in a House impeachment Inquiry. And an interesting-er fate awaits the Party of Chaos when it finally has to admit that it doesn’t have a candidate for the 2024 presidential election — at least a candidate anyone has ever heard of. The “president” stands (shakily) bestride a dilemma. He can gracefully bow out of office and avoid the historic humiliation of being unmasked as the crookedest chief executive ever — but if he does that, he loses the ability to pardon the son he so loves in any upcoming indictments, or pardon himself as CEO of Biden Consulting Inc.

      Or, just maybe, the Blob will steal into the White House residence some gloomy pre-dawn morn, and settle its quivering, gelatinous endoplasm over “JB’s” face until his struggles with Congress and everything else on this plane of existence come mercifully (for us) to their end.

    Jeez…

    • Beryl of Oyl September 18, 2023 at 10:17 am #

      Yes, Jeez. From the opening quote, I would describe today’s piece as “muscular”.

        Let me step in with a couple of scenarios more likely than the one Jim just proposed

        1- Our President wakes up in the middle of the night and feels the desire for a soothing ice cream cone. He presses the Red Button beside the bedside to call a servant with his favorite flavor—–.

        2- Knowing that the Final Offensive has been lost, the Banderista wing of the State Department, led by Victoria Nuland, boards their specially outfitted long range 747 bound non stop for New Zealand. As soon as they are comfortably cruising over the Pacific they push the Red Button with the launch codes on it that their security operatives had stolen from Joe’s desk while he was asleep. Upon landing at their 50,000 acre sheep ranch they are met by an army of 1 thousand tattooed, naked Maori warriors wielding traditional war clubs—-. Karma!

        This is a quiz, folks.

        How many of you believe that there is any organized force in our Nation that is willing and able to put a stop to these or other more likely scenarios that lead directly to nuclear WWIII?

        By feeding your vote into a digital counting machine that determines the outcome? Adults are supposed to outgrow belief in Santa Claus—. And recognize evil when they see it.

        If the Commander in Chief orders a “preventive” first strike on Moscow because all other dreams of Victory over Russia have been exhausted, who among the Military will march into His office, overwhelm the Guardian of the Nuclear Briefcase, and arrest the Biden Hologram and all his handlers? Or will they just follow orders like the good guards on the Holocaust trains!

        Who among the civilian militia could even plan such an insurrection? Certainly not the pasty’s who were led through the open doors of the Capital on January 6 and marched off to a lifetime in the Gulag!

      From the various sundry facts mentioned in the article, I have a suspicion this will be a rather long LONG EMERGENCY / 4th TURNING.

    Well, at least most Americans have wised up to the tactics of the plandemic, so the Righteous mob ought to be able to put down the resistance of the smaller group of Covidians trying to relive that nightmare.

    But most of the rest of the legal aspects of the shenanigans going on will most likely end up on the back burner as the Mother of All Crashes looms. I don’t see the spectre of Interstellar aliens or a deadly new virus or war with China or escalation in Ukraine even being necessary to fan the flames of an economic reset, but these days the Script is being ad-libbed, so who knows?

    It’s a race now to the bottom between the forces of “Too Much Magic” bringing us the age of the Jetsons (sustainable now, and Green), and the crash of the American Empire and the Western standard of living as “The Long Emergency” picks up steam.

    Even odds for next fall’s WWIII, canceled election and the Anti-Christ popping up?

    • FGB3 September 18, 2023 at 12:28 pm #

      “…but these days the Script is being ad-libbed…”
      I think not. I think this whole thing was very carefully planned.

    • happiface September 18, 2023 at 12:54 pm #

      well said Dr.H…my bet is the nukes fly in about a year or so,maybe tomorrow–the anti Christ has been here a long time,ask Jesus,the bible humps of his day killed him,the bible humps of today will do it again when Jesus walks the earth once more…..won’t matter much when 2/3rds of world is dead after the nukes fly and 90 to 95 percent gone in 5 years after–Russia has nuke shelter for about half its people,the Swiss for all its people–usa not many,only at the military bases and DC

    If Shakespeare was alive today, the line would have read, “The first thing we do, is kill the Law.”

    • dale September 18, 2023 at 3:45 pm #

      I doubt it. Lawyers are not the law. Lawyers and judges can corrupt the law. Once upon a time, simply good men were appointed as judges – as opposed to the current “requirement” that being a lawyer is a prerequisite for becoming a judge.

      There is an adage that – a person who represents himself has a fool for a lawyer. And that’s certainly true for navigating the labyrinth that the court system has become. This is more visible as law is weaponised and the spirit of the law gives up the ghost.

      • Ron Anselmo September 18, 2023 at 4:16 pm #

        dale – you are correct. A grandfather of mine was the Circuit Court judge in the 17th District of Florida (encompassing Broward County Florida and other parts of South Florida) in the 1940’s.

        He “read law” as a Clerk, but was never a lawyer, and was appointed by the Governor. Subsequently, over time, he ran for re-election, when it was no longer taboo to run against a sitting judge.

        He retired from the bench in the late 1970’s, never having left office. The Broward County Law Library was named after him posthumously.

        On your other point, I have a potential dust up, and was thinking about appearing pro se. I have the facts, understand the law, and can present a decent argument, but would get buried procedurally – as you say, a fool for a lawyer.

        Thanks for the insightful comment counselor.

          You would have no “standing”.

          • Ron Anselmo September 20, 2023 at 2:30 pm #

            Not so, standing is about jurisdiction, not representation.

            In other words, when they just don’t feel like doing their job as in the case of Supremes with Trump and the stolen election.

          • Ron Anselmo September 21, 2023 at 11:24 pm #

            Let’s say I lived in Miami and vacationed in your town for a week, and you stole and totaled my car in a night of joyriding. If I went home to Miami and filed suit in Miami, I would have no standing because the South Florida courts would have no jurisdiction in such a case. Suit would have to be filed where you live, where those courts would have jurisdiction.

            In the flurry of stolen election suits there was plenty of evidence of election fraud. I have copies of Exhibits marked and entered as evidence in a few cases. All the parroted cries of “baseless claims” and “lack of evidence”, by the fuctup, delusional Democrats were and still are, all lies.

            The cases were tossed out on standing – supposedly filed in improper jurisdictions – none were dismissed on evidence. The evidence was never “heard” by the courts.

            In one case, filed by Texas AG Ken Paxton, I believe, after being passed up, SCOTUS did have jurisdiction. The case appeared on their docket for a hearing. They decided not to hear the case.

            Not surprising – they are poisoned. The highest court in the land, but our latest Justice, not being a biologist, cannot tell us what a woman is.

            Our country is a fucking joke, but the worst part is we take it. What we allow becomes acceptable.

        I was watching Sunday night football yesterday. Pfizer ( I think it was) aired an ad a few times showing kids getting the bandaid after their Covid shot and advocating for people to get their kids shot up. They’re still shamelessly pushing it. Sickening and infuriating.

            They were freed from slavery, only to lose their rights to Jim Crow and the crop-lien system that may have been worse than slavery: get them so indebted to the Klansmen who ran everything that they could never break even, and take away their ability to vote. Then, come the Depression and, later, the Great Society, offer them money so they’d become politically indebted to the same political party that kept them down, but conceal their self-destructive beneath a “Talented Tenth” made up of hucksters like Al Sharpton. For their part, Republicans just walked away from Reconstruction in order to get Rutherford B. Hayes into the White House, and seldom did much to help blacks after that — and then wondered why their support among blacks melted away.

          • 100th Avatar September 18, 2023 at 6:38 pm #

            Absolutely correct. Always dependent to the party.
            More scandolous is how the Democrats treat them like slaves in the political arena: they have no choice come voting time and must be kept in line.
            Those that do exercise political independence are quickly disparaged as Uncle Tom’s and racists, yes, racists.

          • Uncle Bob September 18, 2023 at 9:09 pm #

            100th,

            That’s my point. Curtis Jackson, aka 50 Cent, endorsed Trump. Chelsea Handler, skank and apparent white supremacist, told him to rescind his endorsement or hed never get to bang her again — whereupon the alleged gangsta badass did what he was told.

          • ThorsHammer September 18, 2023 at 11:15 pm #

            Speaking of the mental inferiority of Blacks. (I’m sure our resident racist will come out of the woodwork)

            Perhaps he would like to comment on the fact that Africans (who are after all, black skinned) only contracted Covid 19 at 1/7th the rate of superior white Americans? Was it because they were smart enough to not subject themselves to the Phizer clot shot? Or did they fail to poison their immune systems with Hostess Twinkies?

            Asking for a friend.

          • Ron Anselmo September 19, 2023 at 1:41 am #

            TH – hoping I’m not considered the resident racist, because it’s not so, but tell this to your friend.

            Most Africans live in tropical and subtropical environments. For decades, Ivermectin has been used as an anti-malarial drug. Their faith in Ivermectin was well placed – lo and behold – forbidden in the US. Maybe your friend can tell us why?

            Moderna nor Pfizer “vaccines” were used in Africa. The African leaders were rightfully skeptical of the whole Covid foolishness.

            Tanzanian President John Magufuli – an ardent Covid denier – of course did not force vaccination on the Tanzanians. He died mysteriously at 61 in 2021, after a two-week public absence.

            Americans, in addition to poisoning our bodies with Hostess Twinkies – are too stupit (intentional Q) to know any better than to do what we’re told.

            The Africans did what they were told too, they just have leaders that are less corrupt, wiser and smarter than our “leaders”. John Magufuli – may he rest in peace – one.

          • Jarek September 19, 2023 at 12:10 pm #

            Thor(!) thinks Blacks are superior to Whites, evidently – spiritually, mentally, and now physically. That’s why he calls himself Thor! But he’s not a racist, you see. Because racists are bad and he’s good. It’s good to see your own people as inferior……

            In fact “Thor”, there is no equality. That’s an abstraction we impose upon the physical world. Blacks are better at us at some things. Do you really imagine that we aren’t better than them at some things?

            A very useful abstract btw, something real on its own level, but it must be used judiciously here below – as in mathematics and the law.

          • Anthea September 19, 2023 at 10:25 pm #

            @ ThorsHammer:

            The reason black Africans contracted covid at a much lower rate than white Americans is well known: Ivermectin is widely used there and has been for decades. Historically, the primary use of Ivermectin has been for the eradication of parasites common in tropical regions.

    I’ve been thinking about that recently. How are they going to rid themselves of this embarrassment? Historically, poison is the choice of the Vatican when they find themselves saddled with an inconvenient pontiff. Within living memory there was one who only lasted a month, though that German guy with the evil eyes was allowed to retire,

      Was he ‘allowed’ to retire, or did he view his move and the way he accomplished it as necessary to allow exposure of the darker side of the hierarchy?

      The ‘deep state’ is pervasive on this planet. One way to combat the dark force is allowing it to self-expose.

      I think this is revealing itself (Revelation). The scheduled Synod looming large next month has the makings for spreading further chaos.

      A coincidence is exceedingly rare.

        Yes, that’s what he called himself. I can’t keep up with the byzantine machinations of the Holy See, and as an apostate of 60 years, I don’t really care. I don’t know if Benedict was a good pope, but I could see by his visage that he was not a good man. His secret past was written all over his face.

        • Heartlander September 18, 2023 at 6:27 pm #

          You people are so mistaken about Ratzinger/Benedict. People here at CFN pride themselves on not buying the “mainstream” narrative, but apparently there’s an exception when anything Catholic is concerned, and you’ve bought the elites’ narrative about Benedict hook, line and sinker.
          Good grief.

            He disgusted Traditionals early on and they began to bring forth evidence of it. Then he gave the green light to the Latin Mass and it all vanished like the dew under the sun. But if it was true, it remains true, religious politics notwithstanding.

            Many Gays speak of gaydar and have called Benedict one of their own. Complete nonsense? I share Draupnir’s suspicions, though I don’t believe he was an evil man, just a very flawed one.

            In any case, we needed a Lion and he was a lamb, alas.

            Jarek, It is my contention that one does not build a face like his through a lifetime of prayer, meditation, good works, and self-denial. I’ve seen the faces of older religious who have, and they are calm and luminous and beautiful.

          • Jarek September 20, 2023 at 3:28 pm #

    • SteveK9 September 18, 2023 at 1:06 pm #

      Ratzinger’s problem was that he was a Catholic. That is no longer permitted in the Church.

      • Not_GeorgeT September 19, 2023 at 11:17 am #

        That’s one way of putting it. It runs deep. Anyone interested could go back and read some of his earlier writings.

        He makes reference at times to early church thinkers and writers who shaped the first few centuries. Those who aren’t mentioned today very often, if at all, in the ‘mainstream’ publications.

        Similar to many other situations in the world, one should look at who is being censored and why to gain a different perspective.

  6. Woodchuck September 18, 2023 at 10:20 am #

    “He can gracefully bow out of office and avoid the historic humiliation of being unmasked as the crookedest chief executive ever”

    Hmmm. Others may be aware of the humiliation, but how to get the man himself to experience humiliation? He doesn’t seem to know where he is half the time and probably belongs in an old age home eating ice cream and playing with toys while ;his attendents make sure he hasn’t soiled his adult diapers.

    In his latest blog post, Dimitri Orlov discusses what he calls “humiliation therapy”. He writes:

    “For the US, the resounding defeat in its proxy war with Russia in the former Ukraine, which is currently in the works, could definitely be part of an effective humiliation therapy, but only for those who have been paying attention, and their numbers are quite low. How many Americans actually felt personally humiliated by the spectacle of America’s hasty and disorderly retreat from Afghanistan? Too few, it would seem, since they jumped right into the next doomed escapade in the former Ukraine. For those in Washington’s corridors of power, no amount of humiliation seems enough. In fact, they seem to thrive on it!

    Neither the Americans, nor their European vassals, seem the least bit disturbed or turned pensive by the spectacle of their national leaders endlessly humiliating themselves on the world stage. To be humiliated one must possess a sense of shame; but what if shame, along with intelligence, integrity, principle, honesty and various other virtues, has gone altogether missing?”

    • Paula D September 18, 2023 at 11:28 am #

      Even Dimitri is American enough to adopt the trope that the retreat from Afghanistan is “humiliating”, while ignoring the far, far more shameful act-the stealing of $9 billion from the poorest country in the area.

      And then, to top it off, our overlords tell us about starving Afghan children, blaming it on the Taliban, instead of the thieves that stole their nation treasure.

      How do they have the nerve to do that? Well, look at Obama, who destroyed the country with the highest standard of living in Africa, turned it into a failed terrorist-infested state, and then shilled for money for his foundation when a flood killed thousands of Libyans.
      (Who was it that bombed their infrastructure?)

      What gets me, though, are the Americans, and others, who fall for that line.

      I actually think that Dimitri also channels the “life expectancy in Russia fell dramatically in the 90s” narrative, also.

      No, there was mass deaths in Russia, thanks to the US takeover.
      Of course when millions of people die suddenly, life expectancy “drops” in only one year.

      Jeez, people.

      Mafiosi profess shame but when there is serious money or power at stake the pretense is cast aside. The Nulands and the Merkels of the world are truly shameless critters.

      Shame may indeed be one of those apparently useless, old-fashioned emotions. Look at the way felons act in court, even when threatened by a hanging judge. How many ever act like their mommas taught them anything about shame?

      Instead, double-down and ride it out.

      The rest of the world is quickly wising up and learning to keep its distance. What has happened to our bosom butthole buddy Europa is a sterling study confirming the reputed crack of Henry W.C. Kissinger that “To be an enemy of America is dangerous; to be its ally can be fatal.”

      It will be fascinating to follow the new alignments of all those “military domino” coups d’état in Central Africa, when former Euro-colonial powers are vying with the Americans and the PRC, with the Russians also making a play recently.

      • C.O.Jones September 18, 2023 at 2:40 pm #

        SpeedyBB – These “people” – Nuland, Merkel, the Bushes, Obama et al. have no shame because they are doing exactly what they intended to do.

        When herr Bush was criticized for his economic and war policies, he smirked as if laughing at right-thinking people and then said “s’good for Merkins.”

        He was telling the truth with no shame. His policies were good for a handful of Americans and bad for the rest.

        When Bill Gates talks about saving lives with his killer shots, he’s mistakenly counting on the fact that because he’s the smartest guy on the planet, nobody will figure out that he is talking about saving the lives of his friends and family by killing off everyone else. He has no shame – he believes he is doing a service to his elite friends by killing off everyone who can’t see thru his BS.

        Mephistophelian does not cover it. These people are Satanic.

      Correct.

      Because “democracies” or representative governments are not efficient enough for the technocrat managerial class.

      They want a Chinese democracy.
      A protected ruling class
      Currency free from pegs.
      One party, one direction.

      They want their decisions implemented immediately.

      The streamlined “vaccines” is but just one example. No bureaucratic entanglements, no metrics of efficacy, and no liability. No discussions, no dissent, no exceptions.

      Even if we had the most morally righteous and egalitarian government in the entire history of mankind, nothing is stopping what’s coming down the pike.

      8b living and breathing organisms utterly dependent on 200m years of stored solar energy, exceeding earths balanced carrying capacity by 8-16 times over, is an unsurmountable physical problem, not a political challenge.

      If you understand overshoot, depletion and degradation, then it’s not only perfectly clear, but entirely logical for elite thinkers to be acting in their fashion.

      Try to see the world from their pov: you need to defeat foreign adversaries to gain access to the last abundant stores of natural resources on order to mantain the private credit money system.

      However, you need you also need to dramatically weaken and destroy existing domestic populations that don’t understand reality and will refuse to accept or comply with new reduced living arrangements.

      It’s just the facts of life – advocacy is unnecessary.

      Fulminating about revenge either demonstrates one doesn’t have a clue about what/why it’s happening, or you have a vivid imaginación that envisions unicorns parcelling out everyones equal and fair share under a rainbow.

        Mitch,

        People know and understand this.

        People know that the entire world’s population cannot possibly enjoy a lifestyle anywhere near occidental standards of working or middle class.

        This is not the issue they refuse to accept.

        They refuse to accept that a self-chosen minuscule elite will continue to live a quality of life at magnitudes exponentially greater than the next strata below, not to mention the mass majority at middle-class and below.

        This they do not accept.
        Not everyone goes smugly into oblivion.

            I’m aware of that, Uncle Bob. I’ve been following all of this too. What I was pointing out is that The Telegraph is only talking about it as if it’s Khan’s vision for London – they’re not talking about it being the UN/WEF/WHO’s vision for the world.

            If they can keep people thiinking this is about Khan and London, they’re hoping to deflect attention from the whole story.

        We have an overshoot problem going on right now where I live regarding coyotes. People everywhere are whining and complaining about the coyotes running around eating pets and running around in back yards and parks. Coyotes completely destroyed my corn patch this year and their howling wakes me up in the middle of the night. The coyotes are the top tier predators at the moment and there are no mountain lions or wolf packs here to thin them out and reduce their numbers to a sustainable level. You can’t shoot them within city limits legally so there is nothing to naturally reduce their numbers unless animal control agencies step up and start hunting them.

        Here’s a nice thought. Catastrophes and breakdowns result in people abandoning all their dogs and then feral dogs and coyotes manage to create mixed breeds. Imagine pit bulls, rotweillers, mastiffs etc. mixing in with coyotes and creating entirely new types of feral canines who move about in packs looking for prey.

            Yirgach – Ed Dowd has. According to VAERS Data, from 1990 thru 2020, stillbirth reports were well under 200 annually.

            In 2021, for some unknown reason, stillbirths exceeded 3400. The “vaccines” were rolled out then, but I’m sure this is just coincidental.

            VAERS reported stillbirths, may be underreported by 90%, so actual stillbirths may be closer to 34,000 in 2021.

            See the book Cause Unknown by Edward Dowd – the numbers are staggering.

            Naturally, I assumed she had the jab. But damned if she didn’t get pregnant again, within a couple of months, and delivered a healthy baby.

            And now my niece is pregnant. I don’t know if she is jabbed. She had covid, but that doesn’t stop a lot of the brainwashed.

            So far, so good.

            We are here for a short period of human-defined time. A time span smaller than a tiny sand grain in a massive desert.

          Back in the old days when peak oil was a more popular topic I’d share my concerns and views about what happens when the oil runs out. I discovered to my dismay that most people didn’t have the capacity to grasp such a concept. They’d get angry and think I was some wierd leftist greenie weenie. The idea that we’d collectively be stupid enough to base an entire civilization on a non-renewable resource was something that simply could not compute in their minds. My guess is that when resource depletion ends our way of life they’ll be blaming their distress on the evil people out there that somehow took their oil away from them. As JHK has often pointed out, people think the planet is a giant oil filled candy bar with that creamy nougat of endless oil in the center of it. Somehow evil men have taken their candy away.

            I must disagree with foregoing premises. Putting the abiotic oil argument aside, alternate free energy generation / capture systems have been invented and reinvented for more than 100 years (ever hear of Nikola Tesla?) For some odd reason all these inventions have come to naught either at the patent office (under contract to the UK) or undertakers (dead men make no inventions).The whole energy issue is about control of technology and the PTB will go to any length to control this vital technology. The earth is SWIMMING in low cost accessible energy but woe is the person that tries to bring this technology to benefit humanity.

            As others here have said, there is plenty of safe, proven reliable energy out there.

            However, that list does not include the current energy darlings of the left, solar and wind.

            It does include bridge forms of energy, like natural gas and nuclear. Things which have a few hundred years to go while something better is developed.

            It does NOT include the political spine to produce a coherent plan to implement. That is the real problem.

            In order to survive this man-made energy crisis, some “feelings” are going to be hurt.

            I personally doubt that will happen, using things like Covid as a distraction – “Oh Look A Booster!” work perfectly well.

            Debating with cornucopians is basically a waste of time. Some things must be learned the hard way. I’ve tried and failed to convince alcoholics (and one drug addict I knew) to stop what they were doing. It didn’t work. A person addicted either to alcohol or the petroleum dependent lifestyle won’t care much about what you say, and it takes a lot more than words and reason for them to change their position or their behavior.

            I don’t underestimate human ingenuity at all. Once petroleum and electricity are too expensive for operating trains, smart and skilled humans will figure out how to move people and cargo around another way. Forget about solar panels or wiindmills. They’ll be using coal, iron ore, and scrap iron to make steel. With that steel they’ll build coal or wood fired steam locomotives. Problems solved and civilized living continues on its way!

            When one has nothing, debate is indeed something to be avoided.

            the hoot owl says:

            “When one has nothing, debate is indeed something to be avoided.”

            Well, I could start with all the complicated and technical radioisotope studies proving oil is of biological origin. Or I could point out that Saudi Arabia is using water to flush the last remaining oil out of some of their wells. Or I could suggest that the last remaining oil in the continental US has to be obtained by very complex and costly fracking procedures.

            I’ve a relative that’s doing *very* well for himself up in the Dakota oilfields, and his descriptions of working at those fracking sites are very interesting to me. Rows of huge locomotive sized diesel engines run 24 hours a day providing the hydraulic force to do the fracking. It takes a lot of diesel and a lot of energy up front to build all the complex giant machines used in the fracking process. He tells me the noise at these sites is very bad and ear protection is mandatory.

            But it used to be that in the 1800’s in Pa you could drill a shallow well and the oil would spurt out of the ground and rain down on the drilling crews. For some reason oil wells don’t do that anymore. Do you think that might be due to resource depletion? Probably not eh? It’s just one of those unsolvable mysteries that just can’t be figured out. To get more oil all we really need to do is just drill deeper instead so we can get closer to and get more of that big yummy creamy nougat of oil in the center of the earth. It’s all good!

            How much? If you wish to know that go talk to some petroleum geologists and oil companies. Some sources will tell you that we’ve pumped out at least 1/2 of all the petroleum that the good lord put in the ground for us. But the issue isn’t how much is left. The issue is how much will it cost to remove the rest of it? In the ND fracking fields it takes a lot of oil to produce oil. The fracking for motor fuels will stop when the business model of doing so is no longer profitable, when it takes too much energy to get that energy. Instead, oil will be produced for other purposes such as chemicals, lubricants, or even lamp oil. And those products will be expensive due to the costs involved in getting the oil to make them. Yes, we’ll still be pumping oil out of the ground 1000 years from now, assuming we don’t first blow ourselves up before that time. But we won’t be using oil for motor fuels. Fuggedaboutit.

            1000 years from now, assuming we’ve not blown ourselves up by then, we’ll still be using oil. The question is will we be using that oil to burn in engines so we can shop at Walmart and go to Disneyworld? The answer is no we will not.

          • Woodchuck September 20, 2023 at 2:12 pm #

            Hey there Owl – There is a concept regarding using petroleum as a motor fuel us peak oilers call “EROEI”. That means “energy returned on energy invested”. Once you understand how that works we can discuss this more.

            Debating cornucopians is similar to debating Christian fundamentalist Rapture believers. I’ve tried and failed to talk them out of their belief that everything is going to be just fine for them up to the very end. They’ll be blessed believers who will live high on the hog in fuel dependent American suburbia until God takes them to heaven where they will party and rule for the next 1000 years or so. This belief gives them much hope as well as no incentive to prepare for what is actually coming.

            The cornucopians believe somet+hing similar except their hopes are pinned on the belief in an endless supply of oil that will keep the party going for many centuries. Trying to argue with any members of these two groups gets you nowhere. You’ll either get preached at or they’ll get angry with you as a nonbeliever. The cornucopians will say “run along now”.

          • Night Owl September 20, 2023 at 2:53 pm #

            Yeah, so how much oil is left in the ground?

            Why should I waste my time going through oil business publications and petroleum geology books when you won’t accept the answer anyway? If you want a precise answer as to how many barrels are left there are many scientific and business publications out there that will give you an accurate rough estimate. Get off your butt and find out yourself. You might learn some things in the process.

            Germany is going back to the exact same state of affairs that existed there when I spent summers in Munich back in the mid 50’s. I loved it because the streets were safe for bike riding and I could travel about on my own as I liked. But not today. Four wheeled gas addicted buttheads like yourself have taken over the roads and made that impossible for the average 7 year old kid. But not for much longer, and for the same reasons. When the Germans attacked Russia the last time they got their asses handed to them and in the 50’s they were a poor country. They are soon once more to enjoy this type of car-less poverty – and ironically for the very same reasons – just can’t leave the Ruskies alone!

          Night Owl, we can probably find that out in a roundabout/indirect way by the apparent fact that the harder-to-extract fossil fuels are being now exploited.

          Also there is such a thing as ‘proven reserves’, if that means what’s left. If so, it would seem an easy search engine thing, maybe using ‘images’ too, what with possible depletion charts of various sorts.

          There might be a lot of oil in the ground but it would seem to be harder to extract. Human ingenuity– so called– only goes so far. I mean, we can hardly send a robot to the moon without occasionally crashing it. LOL

          Perhaps it’s a bit like some of the covid stuff where we can find out the truths or perhaps closer to them in roundabout ways, such as via insurance claims, funeral parlours, actuaries, retirees in the know who have less to lose by bean-spilling, seemingly-empty hospital-crashers with cameras, and so forth.

          My chips say Woodchuck may be onto something.

        @ Mitchellc:

        As I’ve said before, the issue of population overshoot and resource depletion are problems only in some parts of the world. In some areas, such as Africa, both agricultural land and other resources would be more than adequate to provide for the population, if land was used productively and other resources were managed productively.

        There are vast areas of the earth that are under-populated.

        I don’t know enough about India to even begin to try to assess their prospects re population, and, frankly, I don’t know enough about China either. (Who does?)

        The US and Europe would have stable or declining populations, ex immigration, and the immigration problem could probably be solved by productive use of land and resources in Africa, Mexico, and South and Central America. In many of the areas of the world that are experiencing population pressures, the problems are really political–which means that there could be political solutions.

        The reason that political solutions are not considered is because the political problems arise from elites’ policies, put in place to benefit elites (and impoverish everyone else). The solutions would mainly be decentralization, especially decentralized land ownership, and finding a good way to address land-tenure policies. Basically, the people have to (privately) own the means of production, and to be able to retain ownership of their labor products–in other words, no taxing it away or inflating it away.

        Apparently, the elites find it more palatable to devise ways to kill everyone off.

        I’ve also mentioned before that the US has immense fossil fuel resouces–probably mainly in the form of coal. Russia also has vast fossil fuel resources.

        While this does not mean that we can squander them, it does mean that we should be able to manage for a very long time, though it might be wise to somewhat moderate fossil fuel usage. One way to do that would be to stop wasting fossil fuels in wars. In the US, decentralization, especially of food production, would greatly reduce fossil fuel usage. Decentralization would also allow greater use of wood for heat. A decentralized economy would reduce fuel usage for commuting for work and shopping.

        The elites will consider no solutions to supposed overshoot and resource depletion that do not ensure that they retain power and preferably accumulate more power.

        • TPTB-USA September 20, 2023 at 4:00 pm #

          The elites that count are implementing the new format for life, the primary decisions have been made, and the vast majority do not have a say in the matter (view the links in my post above).

          Ask yourself: Why is it that mortal enemies in the middle east have all of a sudden become best friends?

          As you say, you ensure that they retain power and preferably accumulate more power, and then entice them with money like that which just happened in Iran.

    Yet how many of the electorate in ‘Merica are still deluded and in denial about covid among many things?

    How many people are now running around masked up while walking down the street alone and driving in their glass bubbles?

    I finally hung out with my dad last weekend after literally three years of no visits at Seal beach and attempted to have a discussion about the looming covid crisis. When I brought it up he clammed right up and refused to discuss it.
    This from the guy who launched into twenty minutes scathing rebuke of anthropogenic global warming.
    I told him the same people pushing that scam are also behind covid and changed the subject to lunch. Two chicken sandwiches, one french fry order, and two waters for the low low price of $56.45.
    Gas has shot up to $5.30 a gallon at the cheap place and down the street at the not so cheap place is hovering just under $6 a fillup now is costing just under $100. Good Job Joe place more areas off limits!

    After three years of not seeing the man and discovering his controlling manipulating partner had possibly messed with his ability to text and call his only response when I brought it up was to say we need to do our own thing and leave her out of it.
    I then told him I thought I was persona non grata…and he did not deny it.
    I then discovered during this time he had a heart stint operation and a hand operation.
    But you know well Covid so they did not want me to worry and or drive up.

            Americans might just have to fight the millions of military aged men who have illegally flooded our borders. Other than China/cartel Joe being bribed to allow cartels to control the border, the most obvious reason to allow this invasion is to employ them to fight against those opposing Joe and his marxist minions. As Jim states, perhaps they are pushing for a civil war/insurrection, and illegals with no loyalty to this nation or its laws and citizens, would constitute a ready made army, especially since they are on the dole with $2200 monthly checks from China Joe and his administration. Over 7 million, not counting the got-a-ways have crossed, with millions more on the way. An illegal army of millions coupled with antifa and blm, as well as American military who do not object to killing Americans, would make for a long and extremely bloody war as destructive as the Ukrainian war we caused.

          • Ron Anselmo September 18, 2023 at 11:03 pm #

            jgalt – for the last 49 consecutive months, a million or more guns have been sold – most in the hands of people who know how to use them. This, in addition to the 100’s of millions of privately owned weapons (and stocked ammunition) already owned – many by ex-military.

            Antifa and BLM are pussies – backed down and pounded by the Proud Boys in every single instance. The Proud Boys haven’t gone anywhere, neither have the Oath Keepers, the 3%ers and the 1%ers.

            On to the military – there is a sizable contingent in the military, that will not follow unlawful, read unconstitutional, orders. They will be facing off with the ones you mention who would not object to killing Americans.

            Civil wars & revolutionary always have a military component – they will split and materialize when the time comes.

            There will be plenty of combatants on both sides – the battles will not be asymmetric – think Viet Cong and Mujahideen – never defeated in their own lands.

            Yes, the immigrants have $2200 per month to fight for – we have much more. We only lack an organized unified command structure, and we will lack continual communication when the grid goes down.

        Good analysis.

        I read somewhere that high-order decision-making depends on two other things besides intelligence: independence (you don’t let other people’s opinions cloud your thinking) and objectivity (you don’t let emotions cloud your thinking).

        Which explains why some of the most intense Covidians I know are people of very high intelligence. But fear and guilt got a lot of them. By guilt, I’m referring to the manipulators’ campaign to convince everyone that their vulnerable loved ones would die if they themselves did not mask up, isolate themselves, and get the damned shots.

        And of course, most of the people who were mandated by their employers to get the jabs only submitted because they couldn’t imagine losing their homes and ability to provide for their kids.

      “This from the guy who launched into twenty minutes scathing rebuke of anthropogenic global warming.
      I told him the same people pushing that scam are also behind covid ”

      Actually, it occurred to me this a.m. to recall that the first “line of defense” for explaining the origin of the “novel” SARS-CoV-2 virus was not only the hapless pangolin, but AGW.

      Recall that Michael Osterholm, the head of CIDRAP, explained to Joe Rogan in I think April 2020, and the rest of us, that more and more dangerous viruses would be jumping from wild animals to humans, the more humans advance into wild areas and the more wild animals come into contact with humans via hunting them for food by people living in these edge areas, changes in their range owing to climate change, etc.

      Osterholm is one who made it crystal clear early on that the masks are useless, even in the setting of an operating theater, and that the papers the CDC was using to justify mask mandates contained no actual data about mask effectiveness. He said this in his June 2020 podcast, which was about mask effectiveness.

      Everything that he said then has been reinforced by the recent meta-paper on mask (in)effectiveness.

      However, back then he had pretty much backtracked by mid-July. Citing him as a source on mask commonsense was challenged by the mask maniacs, who pointed to his more recent statements to nullify one’s own.

      But, back to my main point, which is that I think in the beginning “they” were going to try to hang this thing on climate change.

      This seems like the kind of idea that might emerge from the participants in Event 201, although I haven’t seen videos to support it.

      • Beryl of Oyl September 18, 2023 at 11:12 am #

        @Jarek, That’s awful beyond words. We can bear almost anything except this kind of betrayal from someone loved and trusted. I’ve often thought that, unlike love, we come into the world with a finite amount of trust. Once used up, we can never trust again. What could be worse than to render someone unable to trust again?

        I’ll try to balance this sickening tale with a bit of hope. My sister, in a very long and difficult marriage, took most loving personal care of her husband at home for the entire last three years of his life when his dementia made him lose all control of his bodily and mental functions. He was ornery and twice her size, but she was unfailingly tender to him. She was encouraged by many people around her to put him in a nursing home, and sometimes scorned and berated because she refused. He spent only one day in hospital – the last day of his life, when he could no longer breathe on his own.

        As a culture, and often on an individual level, we’ve sunk into worse than savagery. But we’re better than this – at least, we can be.

        • Jarek September 18, 2023 at 4:16 pm #

          Yes, beautiful. I believe it and you. And since you believe me, here’s one of the stories:

          My wife did this to me 15 years ago. I thought I was the only one until this video!
          Yeah, it SUCKS! 15 years later I’m perfectly healthy, but I will always have issues from time to time.
          It costs me roughly a thousand dollars a year for HRT and I’ll be on it for life.

          The worst part is, turning a man into the beta they think they want actually makes him into something she isn’t attracted to any more. Wife finally left our family after 25 years of marriage.

          You guys keep saying you’d sue or do something about it.

          But trust me, you wouldn’t. Because you don’t want your kids to suddenly see you as the bad guy. Because you want to just.move.on. And because, even with proof, no one will believe you.
          And women will actually laugh at you and think it’s just a hilarious prank. And a lot of men will just say that you’re less of a man if your natural testosterone didn’t overcome it. That’s not how it works!

          Also, it took me 14 years to put all the pieces together and finally figure it out and confront her. Statue of limitations was long past.

          I guess I have two points here. First, watch your back and don’t get married. Apparently this is something that does happen.
          And second, if you find yourself talking to a victim of this, please don’t shame the dude. Try to be kind. We didn’t choose this!

          Jarek: The average woman’s first response is hilarity. But I believe there is a higher type, though rare. Our pundits estimate that about 10% of women are willing and able to see men as full human being and not just things to be manipulated.

          Perhaps some women attain this later, thru become mothers of sons. One academic in our movement, Karen Straughan, describes the horror that hit her when they reached adolescent: There is literally going to be nothing for them.

            correction: adolescence

          • Rowdypiglet September 18, 2023 at 5:00 pm #

            @Jarek, that’s a sad and dreadful story and there’s no way to make it right. I wish I could.

            I’ll tell you that my husband made a young, naive marriage to one of these kinds of women, who tormented him for eight years, put him into enormous debt, and finally killed herself after complaining that he didn’t make enough money (he worked as a consultant for Apple and made a lot of money, all of which she spent on personal luxuries).

            We met about the time of her death, when she’d taken up with a gay man and had run out of options in every area of her life. We spent the first seven years of our marriage paying off her debts – most of which we had no idea what they actually were, credit cards opened in every retail outlet you can think of.

            We’ve taken loving care of each other through many years – sickness, health, tragedies, layoffs, lousy jobs and a million disappointments – but never disappointed in each other. We’ll do so will do until we die – as we promised.

            It’s a gift beyond measure, and I wish I could give it to others. All I can do is to say that it’s rare but not impossible. There’s surely someone who can love each of us this much, but I admit there are vast numbers of humans (particularly, at this juncture in time, women) who are deadly. I’m lucky to have had loving and loyal women in my family, and to have grown up in the company of my grandfather – the very best of men.

            bodhicitta, or the wish for all to be happy – Jar

            ==============

            I looked it up and see no mention of “happy.”

            In Mahayana Buddhism, bodhicitta, is the mind that is aimed at awakening, with wisdom and compassion for the benefit of all sentient beings. Bodhicitta is the defining quality of the Mahayana bodhisattva and the act of giving rise to bodhicitta is what makes a bodhisattva a bodhisattva. Wikipedia

          • Jarek September 20, 2023 at 12:25 pm #

    I hear that “Joe Biden” and the Dems support the UAW strikers. I predict that within 2 years the Big 3 automakers will be begging the US gov for a bailout.

    • Woodchuck September 18, 2023 at 10:47 am #

      What might happen with the big three is they all go bankrupt and consolidate into one automaker. Then they’ll be making some junky and shitty little cars just for us and comparable in quality to what the old Soviet car makers offered.

        Fetterman, the brain-dead galoot from PA, was dispatched as envoy to the UAW strikers.

        The Democrats want less cars. They want less car ownership.

        One way to do this is by making them prohibitively expensive for the majority.

        Higher wages will mean even higher prices.

        Average folks will succumb to the subscription based shared vehicle platform.

        Another piece to this program is managing and restricting one’s carbon footprint. It will be much easier when people are dependent on subscription usage.

We’ve had two of them ignite in the past year, luckily with no passengers on board. The Climate Change Honchos and EPA bigwigs, feeling smug, will blow past you in their $180,000 Lucid Air EVs while you wait for the bus at some filthy bus stop that smells like urine.

          A senior research fellow for the Center for National Defense said there was no near-term fix for the capability gap between China and the U.S.
          The slide outlined China’s shipyard capacity at 23.2 million tons compared to 100,000 tons for the U.S.

        My business is installing auto glass. The complexity level of even our little specialty is ridiculous. The complexity (and size and weight) is going to have to come back out of automotive design, because on average, we can’t afford it anymore.

          Not quite following you.

          Are you saying that the complexity of every aspect of cars, such as just the auto glass, means that soon we will have no capacity to build a decent vehicle?

          Does this mean back to the Deux Chevaux? It really was the first “people’s car.”

          “Conceived by Citroën Vice-President Pierre Boulanger to help motorise the large number of farmers still using horses and carts in 1930s France,[4] the 2CV has a combination of innovative engineering and straightforward, utilitarian bodywork.[5][6][7] The 2CV featured overall low cost of ownership, simplicity of maintenance, an easily serviced air-cooled engine (originally offering 9 hp), and minimal fuel consumption. In addition, it had literally been designed to cross a freshly ploughed field with a basket full of eggs on the passenger’s seat without breaking them, because of the great lack of paved roads in France then; with a long-travel suspension system,[8] that connects front and rear wheels, giving a very soft ride. . . . ”

      Did anyone else observe how fast that black fabric “wall” went up around Lahaina? How were the city officials able to (a) think of that, and (b) find the materials, and (c) erect it? That’s pretty damned efficient! Reminds me of the speed with which the Two Towers debris was removed at “Ground Zero”.

          – The construction of this fence was top-priority over even survivors’ water, food and shelter

          Dictatorship Rationalization

          Where/When one is unsure, it helps to fallback to the fundamental; that government is coercive and blankets a population within its arbitrary borders with its laws and therefore cannot be trusted because they are offering and imposing an abusive, non-consensual relationship, via their so-called laws.

          ‘Wakie wakie!’, as they keep saying while many people nevertheless keep on sleeping or maybe obstinately pretending to be doing so for one reason or another.

          JHK– you know, our host?– has Paul Craig Roberts’ quotes right at the top to show us how grown men who should know better actually do not.

            Naive Grandpas & The Baked-In Self-Destruction Of Our-Way-Or-The-Highway Rules (AKA, The Rule Of Law)

            When you give power over law to people who see law only as a weapon with which to get enemies, you destroy the rule of law. That’s what the dumbshit white liberals have done.” ~ Grandpa Paul Craig Roberts

            Edit:

            “…via their so-called laws.”

            Add:

            “…via their so-called laws, backed up by a monopoly on violence through such thug outfits as the police, military and ‘private’ ‘security’ forces, with a keyword being force.”

            —-

            Bonus:

            “While the monopoly on violence as the defining conception of the state was first described in sociology by Max Weber in his essay Politics as a Vocation (1919), the monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force is a core concept of modern public law, which goes back to French jurist and political philosopher Jean Bodin’s 1576 work Les Six livres de la République and English philosopher Thomas Hobbes’ 1651 book Leviathan. Weber claims that the state is the ‘only human Gemeinschaft which lays claim to the monopoly on the legitimate use of physical force. As such, states can resort to coercive means such as incarceration, expropriation, humiliation, and death threats to obtain the population’s compliance with its rule and thus maintain order. However, this monopoly is limited to a certain geographical area, and in fact this limitation to a particular area is one of the things that defines a state.’ In other words, Weber describes the state as any organization that succeeds in holding the exclusive right to use, threaten, or authorize physical force against residents of its territory. Such a monopoly, according to Weber, must occur via a process of legitimation.” ~ Wikipedia

            “Anarchism [anarchy] is participatory… it’s based on the assumption that any authoritarian or any structure of authority and domination has to justify itself– none of them are self-justifying– whether they’re in individual relations, or international affairs or the workplace or whatever…

            They have a burden of proof to bear, and if they can’t bear that burden– which they usually can’t– they’re illegitimate and should be dismantled and replaced by alternative structures which are free and participatory and are not based on authoritarian systems…” ~ Noam Chomsky

      1) The capstone.

      2) “We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors…and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.”
      – an unnamed official in the George W. Bush administration [widely believed to be Karl Rove]

      That is, your guess is as good as mine. My guess is this fall.

      3) This is also a pure guess but I think TS’ll HTF before gas ever gets to $10/gallon in the USA. I think that gas will go on rations and black market before it goes to $10 in some sort of giant normalcy ceteris paribus.

          Right. North Americans have lived very a sheltered existence from such 3rd-world market structures. Except for criminals and illicit drug users, most Americans and Canadians will be doing a lot of on-the-job training in the black market (i.e. getting ripped off).

      • tuco22 September 18, 2023 at 11:58 am #

        Nope, nope, nope, sorry to disagree with you. There is NOTHING that will get Americans out into the streets in outrage (except for maybe abortion rights). They simply cannot be outraged (except if you’re smoking in a bus shelter when its raining, for instance). $10/gal gas isn’t gonna do it. They’ll just demand that someone else go without so they can have.

        • OG September 18, 2023 at 12:08 pm #

          I must clarify. I am not suggesting that $10 gas would be the last straw causing TS to HFT. I am suggesting that TPTB will invoke their planned SHTF before gas gets to $10. And, as I say, it is only a pure guess.

        Ye people aren’t even willing to take out a dollar bill, turn it over, and study the Pyramid. I tried to get our British poster to do it, even providing the image, but instead they started talked about rectangles.

        What a square!

        • Woodchuck September 18, 2023 at 1:09 pm #

          Back in the 70’s while visiting Bavaria a cousin was giving me a grand tour of some of the fantastically decorated baroque style churches in the country. It was either the Weis or Rottenbuch churches. In one of them I noted a painting that featured the famous pyramid/eye-in-the-triangle image. I asked him about the painting and he said he didn’t know what that meant. I had great fun surprising him by pulling a dollar bill out of my pocket and showing him the very same Masonic image on the dollar. It seems that some of the builders of that cathedral might have also been Masons.

        • GreenAlba September 18, 2023 at 7:01 pm #

          There is more than one British poster.

          I told you that I was perfectly familiar with the pyramid and its meaning and had no need for your dollar bill. As somebody said (oh, was it you?) you are showing your fallen nature. Again. The Father of Lies will be waiting for you with open arms when your time comes. Or perhaps you are just a little dim and have a shockingly bad memory. Mine is bettrer, despite my years. Or perhaps I am just more honest. Whatever.

          I told you that Iain Davis had formulated a rectangular schema that is useful for seeing the layers of decision-making globally. You can see it here, if you scroll down very slightly:

          jermwarfare.com/conversations/iain-davis-on-the-global-power-structure

          If it displeases you, as a schema, do let me know the detail of what you disagree with, in terms of the power structures. Unless you are really not very bright, I think it would be simple enough to extrapolate it to a pyramid structure, to include levels above the BIS and to expand the size of ‘the people’. But, as it s stands, it is a useful diagrammatical representation.

          • Jarek September 18, 2023 at 7:15 pm #

            You’re a square in the 60’s sense. If there are more than one British poster, why are you responding?

            Expand the size of the people? That’s against the whole point of the Pyramid and why they chose it. You still don’t get it!

          • GreenAlba September 18, 2023 at 7:23 pm #

            Don’t be disingenuous. I knew you were talking about me, because you made the same stupid comment already. Perhaps we are looking at early-onset dementia, as well as fundamental dishonesty.

            The base of the pyramid is broader because the people are more numerous, while being powerless. Besides which, if you wish to incorporate the useful and accurate information in Davis’ schema into a pyramid structure, basic geometry requires that the base has to be made broader than the top (following so far?). I suspect one could explain that to a five-year-old, with the help of some plastic shapes.

          • Jarek September 18, 2023 at 7:43 pm #

            Oh, ok, yes – but that was the earlier stage. Now they don’t need people so they’re reducing the base.

            I didn’t understand you. Sorry.

      I think it could be $10.00 soon if Trump is not restored to the White House.

      I moved downtown in my small town earlier this year to bring an end to daily commuting by car. I now walk 2 blocks to my office every morning and back home in the afternoon. I drive maybe 50 to 80 miles a month going to buy groceries around town or to visit my mother. Otherwise, the car stays parked 99% of the time. The price of gas has ceased to be very meaningful to me, except when contemplating a road trip for a vacation. Then I get steamed again.

      My thanks to JHK for suggesting many years ago that Americans need to go back to living in walkable small town centers instead of automobile-centric suburbia.

      • Paula D September 19, 2023 at 10:39 am #

        I deliberately moved close to town, many years ago, so that I could walk to work if need be.

        It works out for me now. I only fill up my tank twice a year, because I live so close. I fill up my gas container twice for the lawn mower twice a summer.

        Gas prices mean little to me also. People raging and gnashing their teeth about their God given right to cheap gas are interesting to observe, but can’t be taken seriously. Do they really think that God loves them and wants them to have cheap gas? It seems unlikely.

    What’s Behind the Surge in Migrant Arrivals to Italy?

    Thousand of migrants reached the Italian island of Lampedusa on more than 100 boats this week

    https://www.usnews.com/news/business/articles/2023-09-15/whats-behind-the-surge-in-migrant-arrivals-to-italy

    • Islander September 18, 2023 at 11:14 am #

      Horrifying.

      “The newly arrived migrants are progressively being transferred onto the mainland, where their asylum requests will be processed. Many hope to continue to other parts of Europe to find work or reunite with relatives. ”

      What I don’t understand is why the Italian govt. doesn’t put them right back in their boats and ferry them back to Tunisia.
      Or, instead of shipping them to the mainland, put them on a troop transport ship that will ship them right back to Tunisia.

      Why doesn’t the Italian govt. immediate send their Coast Guard to Lampedusa and prevent any future landings?

      What am I not getting here? They need to close that border.

      I know Italy is corrupt, but maybe the Sicilian mafia should be asked to solve this problem. I bet they own plenty of boats. Or, perhaps they are the ones running the scam, like the Mexican cartels on our border.

        Google “Kalergi Plan”. That is what you aren’t getting.

        Meloni was a great right female hope who ran on stopping the invasion. She has allowed it to be massively increased instead.

        Fyi, the Maffia is involved in moving the illegals. The days of their Italian or even Sicilian Patriotism are long since passed.

        There is little reason to believe Marine Le Pen would be any better. She said almost nothing during the last bout of mass Muslim rioting.

            If you read other offshoot texts from the religion you hold dear, the other books, teachings, the Kabala, you would understand that other men are considered beasts. To serve.
            Consider the text you believe to be yours, from a renegade, is all merely a plan to get the multitude to abandon their gods, their tradition, their culture, their understandings of nature and to accept an alien one.
            With one goal
            To rebuild their kingdom.

            It’s a plan as I think you know. And pretending that’s it’s inevitable is one of the strategies. Just like your favorite: opining that Whites don’t exist to begin with.

            Here you pretend to be against them, yet you do their work. Why? You’re the one who is deceived it would seem.

            There were rich, varied, and ancient cultures throughout Europe before the expanse of Rome was exploited against it, and the people under its rule.

            What happened after: decline, fall, dark ages, despair, and retreat from THIS world (for the virus promises salvation in the next)

      7000 illegals descended on an island of only 6000 residents. Imagine their horror.

        50 illegals showed up on Martha’s Vineyard and the wealthy denizens had them bounced back to a military barracks on the mainland within days. Barack and crew with multi-million dollar estates certainly didn’t have room for the poor “folks”.

          Now there is a film out called Martha’s Vineyard v. DeSantis.

          One lady who saw it said, “But DeSantis LIED to them.”

          I almost said, “So what? This is not about ‘lying.’ ” But it was a social situ as a friend’s house, so I said nothing.

          People still don’t get it.

          This lady also said, “There are so many jobs these people could do that Americans don’t want to do, like nurse . . .”

          My jaw dropped. I sure don’t want to go to the hospital and be “nursed” by someone who has zero training to be a nurse.

      Good post from Mike Yeadon again today on Telegram, particulalry the background on UNESCO:

      “Planned Parenthood, an organization which Bill Gates’ father headed, was previously called the American Eugenics Society, which itself was budded off from a U.K. organization of similar name.

      Both realised that the name “Eugenics” wouldn’t fly after the Nazis.

      The very existence of such societies, founded by the “liberal elites” in the late nineteenth century, came about because those entitled people genuinely believed they were natural rulers and most people were a waste of food. Nice people, eh?

      Many think of Aldous Huxley as sending a prescient warning. Others realise the Huxley’s were up to their waists in this evil philosophy. Julian, Aldous’ brother, was the first head of the UN environmental, societal and cultural organizations (UNESCO). They hit upon a formula whereby they could pop up anywhere and declare places “world heritage sites”, banning the little people from ever visiting them and carving out chunks of planet earth that they controlled. We never voted for the bodies pendant to the UN, such as the IPCC, WHO and others.

      Make no mistake: these eugenics societies were not very well disguised fronts for justifying the exclusion and murder of those they judged undesirable.

      Nothing has changed. Imagine growing up with table talk of the kind such a role implies?

      Best wishes
      Mike”

      Just say no to population overshootists and Malthusian psychopaths.

      • Anthea September 20, 2023 at 3:53 pm #

        Eugenics seems to have enjoyed quite a bit lf respectability prior to WWII. Support for eugenics turns up from time to time in books written before WWII. You can get the impression that this was the consensus view in the past and enjoyed the kind of support we now see for climate change.

        I always enjoyed Helen and Scott Nearing’s books and was surprised to learn that they were eugenicists.

      First the CIA carries out a mind control operation on a thousand people in a remote jungle.

      Then they kill them. Then they carry out a mind control operation on the masses.

      Is it mass formation when the masses believe them? Or just effective propaganda.

      And once people have been propagandized, and part of the psy op leaches into the mainstream “Conspiracy theorist!” or “Drinking the Koolaid”, then pointing out that they were lied to is fruitless.

      But I’ll present the evidence here, anyway, because I think that some people prefer to have the facts.

          How they enjoy asserting violent, terminal force against those they first set-up, or those who dare stand against their will. Or nice and slow, as in the slow rotisserie barbecue of Julian Assange on the state spit.

          But their ultimate enjoyment is the largely silent public in the aftermath with each incident (murder) of our fellow Bill of Rights-‘protected’ citizens.

      Shtik – if and when gas gets to 15 bucks a gallon people won’t be driving to ball games any more. It won’t matter if little league games or university level games, the resources to support the ball game lifestyle will end. Not only will fuel be prohibitively expensive but so will food. At some point it won’t matter in the least who wins a ball game. The human race will then have far more important issues in front of them. Issues like where’s the diesel fuel coming from to keep the yellow school buses rolling.

      Also during the long emergency people will be caring less about grammar and spelling. It just won’t matter any more. Are you ready for this?

        We will go back to having pick-up leagues play in local abandoned lots where warehouses used to stand. The ball games will be on a very small, local level, much like everything else in our future world. All the fancy bats, gloves, uniforms, and protection will also be out the window. They will use old sticks, pillows, hand stitched homemade balls, etc.

          Back when I was a child we’d sometimes play ball in suburban streets because there was so little traffic. When a car came we’d all move aside to let it go by and then we’d continue playing. There was one house on a hill that had a long and smooth driveway that we’d use to race our red wagons. You know, the sort of 4 wheeled wooden or steel wagon with the long handle in front that could move the front wheels right or left and that way you could steer the thing. We’d spend hours racing each other and sometimes wrecking. At the bottom of the hill we’d be at max speed and would run across the road into another lot before we could get stopped. If we saw a car coming during the middle of a race we’d back off and try and get the wagon stopped by dragging our feet on the pavement to try and slow it down. Sometimes this resulted in wrecks causing crying and howling and skinned knees and elbos. But that didn’t stop us until one of us almost got hit by a car doing this. Our parents had to step and curtail or manage our fun. Can’t do anything like this today at this particular spot – way too much traffic now. It was great fun while it lasted. Back in the old days children invented their own games and activities with little to no adult supervision – the good old days for children which may be returning soon!

            Where I grew up, it was the same only ball hockey (shinny) that we played in the road back in the 1970s. Someone would yell, “Car!” and all players would move to the sides (with the ball-handler carefully guarding his possession), two goalies would each pick up their net (tube metal and tattered nylon mesh) and allow the intruder to pass.

            Then … “Game on!” For endless hours.

            I was reading “something somewhere the other day”, and in passing it mentioned that there were 100 million fewer people back in that day. I remember that America. The 1950s. That time was when I grew up. That was “Home”.

            I was watching The Godfather Part II last month, and when the movie got to the part where Michael went down to Miami to meet with Hyman Roth, Coppola was able to figure out how to portray that Miami suburb just as it was in 1955: the cars of that era, the houses, streets, everything. For me it was like “Home”. It was like looking though a magical viewer in which one could see the past just as it was.

            Sledding! I forgot to write about that. We’ve got lots of steep hills here and after a good snow (it happens in TN) we’d be out sledding instead of in school which would be closed due to snow. We’d construct jumps near the bottom of a hill so we could get a bit of air when we got up to speed. Sled wrecks weren’t nearly so bad because there was soft snow everywhere to land or slide on. You didn’t get the road rash that happened on pavement. Cars were only a problem when we were sledding on steep streets. And we did that to. Mishaps were only painful if you hit something solid like a tree or a fire hydrant.

        • Ron Anselmo September 19, 2023 at 2:22 am #

          Probably not. The proportion of blacks on the football team is certainly greater than the demographic makeup of the student body.

          Why? Not because they are black, but because they are better athletes, and the goal is to win games – on merit & performance.

          Destroys the whole real racist liberals’ arguments. It’s not color folks – it’s merit & performance. Hello?

          • elysianfield September 19, 2023 at 12:25 pm #

            Ron,
            Exactly the point. Hiring what are arguably academically unqualified students for sole reason of athletic ability should not be a goal of a University. but is, rather, a surrender to more base reasons. The uber criminal Jerry Tarkanian used to empty the jails to provide for his U of A Basketball team. This “student” subterfuge is a corruption of the system, and is culturally unhealthy for many institutions. Why doesn’t Rutgers, or other institutions hire the Green Bay Packers? The short answer is they would if they could get away with it. The more a University cheats on “recruitment” the better it’s chances of a winning season.

            “…the better it’s chances of a winning season.” ~ elysianfield

            On a deeper dive, say University of Florida, my alma mater, the revenues from the football team, support all other UF athletic teams combined – making a winning season a paramount goal.

            It’s a bargain with the devil, and I don’t personally agree with it, but recruiting to win, gets winning seasons, which supports other campus teams, countless other athletes & gets huge private donor support.

            There were some very well-known football players in my field of study and enrolled in the classes, but they never once attended class?

        A Christian, however, stares in disbelief as His word is fulfilled to a tee yet people like you somehow use that as evidence of there being no God!

    It’s bad enough that elections are routinely stolen, resulting in horrible people in city halls and legislatures and governorships throughout the land. Not to mention the White House. Now not only is it impossible to get them out of office, we’ll get prosecuted for questioning the whole mess. That my friends is a dictatorship.

    My blood is pure, my blood is clean.
    For I did not get that damn vaccine.
    And though I got sick from -19,
    I’m stronger now than I’ve ever been.

    How I savour the coming day
    When public gallows come to stay.
    Their necks will snap, their bowels filleted
    Their bodies left to rot and sway.

    • Woodchuck September 18, 2023 at 12:56 pm #

      As I’ve posted before, my little hillbilly town in frontier days had a gallows near the jailhouse. I’m sure it discouraged a lot of would-be evil doers. But for public health reasons and decorum, the bodies were taken down after the necks had snapped. Leaving them to rot and sway is what was sometimes done to pirates.

      Meanwhile, by all accounts, the flood of refugees crossing the southern border has become an unstoppable torrent and an overwhelmed Border Patrol is just waving them in. It’s hard to tell if this is by design, or that the Federal government has simply lost control. Certainly the worthless legacy media isn’t asking any questions. In Chicago last weekend an estimated 1 million revelers were in the streets celebrating Mexican Independence Day; it was the Mexican National Flag as far as one could see. The US has been transformed into something that is almost unrecognizable.

        As much as I hate that, I do feel schadenfreude over it happening to the Wokesters who populate Shitcago.

        As a Texan who endured this crap for over 30 years while the damnyankees laughed, hooted, and ignored our pleas to seal the border I think it is only fitting that these pompous, liberal Northern cities are now having to contend with the chaos they forced on the border states.

        The smartest thing governors Abbot and DeSantis ever did was to start trans-shipping the arriving illegal alien hordes to all those pious “sanctuary” cities run by brain-dead Democrats.

        They had best start learning how to sing La Cucaracha up there in Illinois and New York. Soon it’ll be your State Songs.

          • Beryl of Oyl September 18, 2023 at 2:53 pm #

            There are some very compelling arguments otherwise.

            “OK, if the Federal Government will not because they both are buying votes from various constituencies then it is the duty of the Governors to do so, and they have their State Guard with which to do so. Call them up and post them on the border, deputizing as many citizens as you need to and will volunteer (that’ll be “lots”) in support for observation, communications and, with their own weapons and ammunition, as provided for as the unorganized militia, to buttress said forces of The Guard.

            Attempt to enter illegally and you will be denied entry.
            Attempt to force your way in anyway and you will get shot.

            “Oh, they’ll go get an injunction!” many say. Of course they will.

            So what?

            Sack up and tell them the options are either deploy the US Military and stop the entries, all of them OR YOU, AS GOVERNOR, WILL DO SO as the Constitution DEMANDS, letters on paper be damned.

            May I remind you of Norton .v. Shelby County?

            An unconstitutional act is not a law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; it affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation as inoperative as though it had never been passed.

            It says an unconstitutional act. It does not limit this to the legislature.

            Any such injunction is invalid as it is clearly a violation of the Constitution which requires the Federal Government to stop all invasive acts.

            The Constitution does not say “except if some group of people profit from it”; the requirement is absolute.”

            And if the Biden’s were not addicted to taking bribes, our border would be sealed. Taking bets on how much the cartels have paid for he privilege of controlling our border and making billions in drugs and human trafficking. My educated guess is 29=30 million $ for turning over control. Question is if the little alien, Myorkas, got any of the bribe money, or was he bribed separately along with various local officials on our Southern border? Always about the money!

          Ah, it seems there’s another person here that knows what a Grand Solar Minimum is. All the weather weirdness we are seeing right now can be easily explained in terms of what typically happens during a GSM. The jet stream changes shape and so does the climate for a few decades. GSM’s in the past have coincided with political and social upheavals and famines – and new inventions. The bicycle came to be during the last GSM when there wasn’t enough food for both horses and humans. So the humans figured out another way to get around on two wheels instead of four hooves. This new GSM may also help push many of us back on 2 wheels instead of 4.

        Ok. Which side is God on – the Russian side or “our side”.

        Russia was founded a thousand years ago when Vladimir Rus got baptized in the river in Kiev. “Our side” began 250 years ago when a bunch of Boston bums and barflies got bored and decided to create riots and public disturbances. Y’all think the USA is gonna last a 1000 years?

        • OG September 18, 2023 at 3:37 pm #

          God knows that the real war is not USA versus Russia or China. The real war is God versus Satan. That is, He will protect His flock on both sides of man’s conflicts.

          • Woodchuck September 18, 2023 at 5:19 pm #

            The USA has apparently officially sold out to Satan and we are supporting satanic ideals and activities. Russia has a state supported church and has been officially a Christian country for around 1000 years minus the relatively brief Soviet period. And the communist takeover happened largely due to groups of outside leftist/atheist trouble makers who had been funded in the beginning by Western powers who took advantage of Russia’s weakened position right after WWI.

            What if this real war of God vs.Satan that you write about expresses itself physically in a final battle between the satanic West and Christian East (Russia). And at the end of the battle the secular nations are crushed and destroyed. You might pray successfully as an individual for personal issues but if you think the Western churches can help in any way – well – that might be a delusion. I can’t speak for God but I’d guess He’ll be ignoring both satanic churches *and* their members.

          • OG September 18, 2023 at 5:40 pm #

            Interesting. Thanks for your thoughts.

            Of course, I also do not and cannot speak for our Lord. I believe that we will see the massive war (Armageddon) and then His glorious Judgement Day.

            Most souls will be banished to Hell (where they belong). Some (those with their names written in His Book of Life) will inherit the earth. These (the meek) will come from all the nations of this realm.

            It is our mandate to try our very best to be in the latter grouping.

  28. MontanaMan September 18, 2023 at 1:14 pm #

    I firmly believe that it’s quite obvious that “CDC director Mandy K. Cohen”, is without a doubt, A true believer. Just look how sincere she really is. Look how peaceful her face looks…. Look how calmly she speaks. She firmly believes in every word, every syllable that she speaks…….

    Next, Jim said in his truthful & Beautifully written article,
    “ She is either very stupid, dangerously wicked, or insane. You decide:”
    I choose “insane”, to start off with!! next, I choose, “dangerously wicked”…

    Because, once again, she firmly believes in every single word, she says throughout the short video. This hard-hitting article is just one more reason why I not only subscribed to Jim over 10 years ago. Well over!! And, secondly, there’s a tremendous difference in the people that used to populate this website!!

    (Thank you Jesus!! For getting rid of nearly every far-left insane person! his website used to be flat out loaded with them!! there’s one or 2 left. The difference between today and back then is this. They have, “toned” it down quite a bit, and they changed their sign in screen name!!)

    Anyway, she really is clinically, firmly, INSANE. If you had her in treatment, in lets say the “McLean Hospital”, Or, next up would be Johns Hopkins, Or the, Cleveland psychiatric inpatient clinic, Or the,
    Cedars-Sinai, that one of my first cousins works at as a, Nurse Practitioner in the psychiatric wing.

    And you asked her several questions pertaining to her statements in the video, I can assure you the world renowned doctors of psychiatry that works in any of these places would diagnose her, as being, clinically insane. In the DSM-5,

    Table 3.20-DSM-IV to DSM-5 Psychotic Disorder, in this section, they would diagnose her as being clinically insane. Next step would be, Is to diagnose her as being a danger to herself, or to the public?

    Frankly, she’s a danger to the public. Because she’s been placed in a position, my cousin told me as having a position to talk to people, and a social matter to sway them into, Harming-Themselves.”

        Doubts. One does not rise to the position of the Director of CDC if one is “very stupid.” The “very stupid” come no where even close.

        I believe that calling her “very stupid” merely underestimates our opponent. Why not just call her, “A poopy-head!” and be done with it?

        • WadeWaters September 18, 2023 at 2:30 pm #

          I’m sure she has a three digit IQ. At the same time she is part of

          the mass formation psychosis around Covid. I equate that with a

          rather virulent form of stupidity.

          • OG September 18, 2023 at 2:56 pm #

            Thus your problem. As long as you keeping thinking that your enemy is “very stupid” (while you actually know that they are not), you will continue to underestimate your adversaries.

        It isn’t that she’s stupid. There’s a war between good and evil going on. She chose evil. People don’t do that because they’re stupid, they do it because they believe in the cause of evil and expect to enjoy the worldly rewards of doing evil and relish the outcomes of evil thoughts and deeds.

        You take Satan and the “fallen angels,” for example. They are not stupid. In fact, tradition credits the angels with a level of intelligence that is inconceivably beyond our own. They’re evil because that was their choice.

      She has an article out about a month ago, where she explains how and why she got red pilled. It has to do with President Trump, and the last two elections. And, like many folks on the left, she lets you know about this…

      She voted for someone on the right, for the first time in the last 2 presidential elections. And she hasn’t looked back. And let me tell you this. If you go and read some of her writings, you would swear this young lady was born of Conservative Christian parents…

      And that she herself has been A conservative thinking ? RINO Despising young lady, all of her young life. And furthermore, she feels towards the Republican Party, about like I do. About like millions of others like me about the Republican Party.

      And She makes no bones about it when it comes to the Republican Party. We need a new party, a Conservative America 1ST Party!! The trouble with this Republican party another problem we have is good luck getting people like Lindsey Graham voted out!!

      And the right one voted in… The same thing with that piece of garbage Mitch McConnell. We have friends that live in Kentucky and they agree with me and my wife. But like he says, you don’t need to try to convince him and his wife, you have to try to convince the idiots that vote for Mitch.

          Nobody ever said that the 8/8 fires were not weather-related, Gus. Yes, it was a 40mph wind with 60mph gusts from Hurricane Dora (700 miles away) that day. That hardly disproves arson. You know that, right?

            I’m sure there was an arsonist camped out all year on the inland side of Lahaina, just waiting for that perfect windstorm to knock down some powerlines and then blow full force directly towards the water and stay blowing that direction. At the perfect moment and place, he whipped out his arson kit and got going..

        “Dragonfire will be showing a model of its new Laser Directed Energy Weapon for the first time on the Royal Navy stand at this year’s DSEI.”

        That was back in 2017.

        Now in 2023:

        gov.uk/government/news/dasa-seeks-innovations-to-help-develop-the-first-generation-of-directed-energy-weapons

        “DASA is pleased to reopen this Innovation Focus Area which aims to find novel ideas that will shine a light on the future of Directed Energy Weapons across Land, Sea and Air domains”

        I’d never heard of them until Maui, but whatever happened on Maui or anywhere else, if they’re a thing in the UK, they’ve been a thing in the US for a very long time.

      Well Gus, days after the fire, ” tree experts” were lamenting about the destruction and death of the historic banyon tree in Lahaina. Um, no. The tree is already sprouting new leaves a month later as I predicted. Everybody is an expert these days even if they don’t know shit from shinola. I’m surprised the tree did not burn from the inside out as death rays from space are inclined to do.

        I’m surprised that it exists at all, stelmo. With glass melting [2500F] all around it, one would have expected it to ignite and burn.

        • stelmosfire September 18, 2023 at 6:53 pm #

          Where do you keep coming up with this glass melts at 2500F BS. The experts on bitchute? Glass blowers routinely work their glass at 1700-1800F to create their art. Would the glass be molten in that state when it is so pliable? of course. You do know there are many different types of glass, right? Because your experts don’t seem to understand it at all. Some glass is worked at 1200-1300F. Those car fires easily exceeded 2000 degrees.

        “I’m surprised the tree did not burn from the inside out as death rays from space are inclined to do.”

        I don’t presume to know what it means, but one of the videos I watched included footage of a tree very clearly burning from the inside out.

            I’m not coming down on a side at all at this point, RO. I defer to St Elmo in terms of the physical data regarding fires generally, but I’m keeping an open mind. If I could find the video of the tree I would post it, and, if St E said ‘that’s normal for a tree burning’, I guess I’d take his word for it.

        • stelmosfire September 19, 2023 at 8:40 am #

          “Videos I watched included footage of a tree very clearly burning from the inside out.”

          • GreenAlba September 19, 2023 at 9:53 am #

            Whatever, St E. I do you the courtesy of openly deferring to your specialist knowledge and you come back at me with nonsense.

            If I find the video I’ll let you have the link.

            Perhaps you will at least accept the validity of the gov.uk website I linked to pointing out current and aspiring future UK involvement with DEWs? I hadn’t heard of them before. Now I have – from an official government source. And, as I said, the US is way ahead of the UK in all such matters. That says nothing about Maui, but it’s a fact that needs to be acknowledged.

          • OG September 19, 2023 at 10:11 am #

            I know exactly what you mean, GA. One cannot have reasonable discussions with the incredulous.

            stelmo does not address all of the trees in these DEWs attacks otherwise inexplicably burning from the inside out (i.e. the water was heated – exactly life in your microwave oven).

            The incredulous know that DEWs don’t exist so they simply ignore facts that they do not like and build ridiculous strawmen in their stead.

          • stelmosfire September 19, 2023 at 12:15 pm #

            GA, I watched your posted video from the tree trimmer. He had many misconceptions.

            Directed energy weapons exist. Big deal. They are just highly focused beams of electromagnetic radiation. Either microwaves, lasers, or any number of other frequency’s. If they were capable of igniting the dead heartwood of trees where the moisture percentage is lowest imagine what they would do to living parts of the trees like the phloem and leaves where the moisture is highest, nevermind what would happen to any person unfortunate to be hit. I’ve read years ago that the long range radar in the nose of a fighter/interceptor jet will cook someone standing in front if the beam didn’t sweep. Here’s a quote I lifted from a warplane site.

            “All aircraft with RADAR have what’s called a “squat switch” when the landing gear compresses on landing, the switch opens, killing the RADAR to prevent ground crew injuries. RADAR tech has greatly increased in the years since WW2. The original microwave ovens (marketed by Amana) were called RadarRanges. Raytheon built loads of RADAR units for fighters, and after the war, they needed something to do with them. It was known that the short wave radiation caused injury (mainly by boiling the water in organic substances, so they decided to use them to cook with. Just FYI: a cell phone uses microwaves to transmit and receive, and you’re holding that right next to your brain!”

        Bull sh!t. There were 3,001 Lahaina students registered for this school year. 1,200-2,000 of those children are still missing. Plus toddlers. Plus infants.

        There is a common understanding that the parents were the incinerated in the kill-zone while the missing kids and the missing school buses were the only vehicles allowed out of Lahaina past John Pelletier’s inexplicable road barricades.

        [Inexplicable? Why, it was good, old-fashioned, uninvestifated American incompetence, of course.]

        Even Ed Dowd, who lives on Maui and does not support the DEW theory, says there are many, many more missing people than the authorities are claiming. He says they’re not giving the real numbers because they don’t want riots. Ed’s a numbers guy – he doesn’t do sensationalism.

        • Rooftop Observer September 18, 2023 at 10:48 pm #

          So where does Ed Dowd get HIS numbers from and why are they more reliable than the ‘official’ numbers?

          • GreenAlba September 19, 2023 at 6:13 am #

            I don’t think he claims any expert numbers in this case, RO. What I meant was that, in general (in his professional work and in his excess-deaths statistics), he’s a cool-headed numbers guy and doesn’t pursue sensationalism without data.

            I don’t think he is claiming actual definite numbers in Lahaina, just that the numbers would appear to be much higher than the official toll suggests (including, perhaps, because children are missing from school, as OG has pointed out), and he figures that is to prevent riots against the authorities.

            If lots of children are missing and their parents are still alive, it seems beyond strange to me that there aren’t huge numbers of parents already making a noise, but I don’t know how many of the missing children also have missing parents. Even ‘missing from school’ isn’t proof of much, as they kids may be with their parents, too traumatised to go to school. I don’t even know where the escaped parents are.

          • OG September 19, 2023 at 9:57 am #

            You are correct about Ed Dowd being a successful Wall Street analyst, GA. Successful Wall Street analysts do not “step out on the ledge.” They are methodical, data-driven and reserved. Often they choose to present their compelling “story” with data that leads their audience to their desired conclusion.

            Therefore, it is not surprising that Mr Dowd would not advocate theories of DEWs being used in Lahaina without far more research and data (i.e. certainty).

            That is not to say that Mr Dowd has disproven the DEWs theories but, rather, he will not “step out on that ledge” while he is uncertain (and, apparently, is not even pursuing that angle).

            ***
            The “official numbers” keep going down while everyone knows that all those melted cars were full of people barricaded in the kill-zone. That dog don’t hunt.

            What “noise” would you hear, GA? If I were jumping up and down in Lahaina right now – screaming and wailing – because my wife and kids are missing, how would you, in Scotland, hear my “noise”?

          • GreenAlba September 19, 2023 at 11:05 am #

            By ‘noise’, I meant that parents would be getting together with other parents and demonstrating in front of a town hall or a police station. Someone would film that. I would see the footage.

            I saw a tree burning from the inside out, all the way from Scotland.

            I remember when the US incinerated hundreds of women and children in Iraq in 1991. They were in a bomb shelter and the US dropped a bunker-busting bomb on them.

            For a while I was reading the memoirs of an Iraqi woman, called Riverdance, or something like that. She was writing after the US invasion in 2003, until she fled to Syria for safety. Ironically.

            Anyway, she knew a man who had sent his wife and children into that shelter to protect them. Instead, they were burned to death.
            She said about him “First he lost his wife and his children. Then he lost his mind.”
            The grief he felt was unbearable.

          • Paula D September 19, 2023 at 11:14 am #

            But the US still denies doing anything wrong, and the grief he felt went unnoticed by the general public.

            Someone mentioned World Heritage Sites, upthread.

            I was reading Moon of Alabama, and some US veteran mentioned that he had been in Vietnam, working on press releases, or something like that, during the war.

            Anyway, hundreds of women and children took shelter in Hue, which was a World Heritage Site, so they believed that the US would not bomb them.
            They were wrong. They US bombed the hell out of them, killing untold numbers.
            He said that that was the first time he realized how completely the US was lying, because they denied doing it, when he knew from being there that it had happened.

            I had never heard of it before, so I duckgo’ed it.

            Wikipedia informs me that the Hue massacre was an atrocity carried out by the Viet Cong.
            They killed women and children and infants, you see, because they thought they were collaborating with the Americans.

            Really, dudes?

The guy said the residents of his building had been told by the Ukies to go to a nearby school for their safety, as their building was going to be bombed by the Russians. They stayed where they were and the school was bombed, presumably not by the Russians.

            A more recent MoA comment went something like this:

            The US wins the propaganda war, and Russia wins the real war, and they both seem happy with this arrangement.

            Unfortunately, that involves civilian atrocities that can be blamed onto Russia, as part of the propaganda.

    “Everybody I talk to feels a gnawing tingle of dread in their livers and lights as our world tilts into the season of darkness.”

    Why do so many people like to watch horror pictures? Big threatening things and images of death, chaos and destruction? Is this because this will make them a better person? Will this add to their spiritual growth? Will they personally make money off of this? Is this something of value that they can leave to their children?

    No, people who frequent ‘The horror’ deliberately seek to scare the hell out of themselves. But it’s a phony scare – because they know they are not in actual danger and that when the program is over it’s back to their usual dreary lives from which they are earnestly seeking escape. In short, the horror seekers are either cowards, or they are actual sickos who get off on that kind of stuff.

    The point? We are currently living on a Planet of Horrors. While we retain the beauty of a next-day sunrise and ‘Soft Kisses on a Summer’s Day’ (as Chad & Jeremy sang to us years ago).. these pleasantries obscure the cold-stone dangers that live among and within us. So why bother watching Hollywood nonsense written by underpaid striking screen writers and acted out by many underpaid and soul-selling actors hoping for their next gig?

    The People of the World need to take their eyes and minds out of their hind-quarters and watch the daily horror show being provided to us by the Dark State, the Wokesters, and the Sleeping Masses who prefer to drown their sorrows by burying their minds all day in the small box of magic dancing pixels… INSTEAD OF watching and enjoying (if they like this horror stuff) a much better Horror Show in living color and in the flesh.

    Escapism is fine… but that’s after the hard work is done. And We the People have a mountain of hard work to do if we are to retain any portion of a livable and somewhat free existence on Planet Earth. You put your feet up at night and watch The Box after you’ve done your work for the day instead of spending all day avoiding the work and seeing only The Escape.

    We are in an existential battle for our lives. And most of us don’t even have a clue that we are. The Dark Side has done a fabulous job of draining our minds from useful thinking while providing lots of distracting ‘entertainment’ of media nonsense and large men running into each other with their heads in front of massive cheering crowds of people doing all they can to avert their eyes from horrors that surround us.

    As our Host rightly points out, we are in a Season of Darkness. But the masses think that it’s just another horror show that will end at the top of the hour and then it’s back to ‘reality’. But the reality is that The Horror IS the reality.

    And because The Masses don’t understand that, They are missing the greatest Horror Show that has yet been written in history.

    No one in Hollywood has to manufacture horror. The Hidden Hand is doing a quite nice job of doing that all by their hidden selves.

    And We the People seem to be willingly participating in this horror spectacle. And like the striking screen writers pacing up and down the streets of LA, We won’t be paid for this, either. Well, we WILL get ‘ours’ when the story reaches its climax… but it sure won’t be money.

    And there just might not be a sunrise the next day, either.

  35. 100th Avatar September 18, 2023 at 3:40 pm #

    Not sure if it qualifies as a reconquest.
    Mexico only held control of lands in the US for around 35 years. After taking them from the Spanish.

    The Spanish, who “conquered” the lands, held it for a few hundred.

    Before (and during) the Spanish there were regional warring factions of Native American tribes with the largest (in US) perhaps being the horsed (thanks to the Spanish) Comanche who were quickly consolidating control.

    So, if you’re insinuating that the indigenous are reconquering, besides the inconvenient mestizo factor, there is very little to no relation between the Mexican and Central/South indigenous populations with the “American” indigenous.

    It’s an invasion. Nada mas

      Interesting. I think the Apaches ranged into Mexico, describing them as miserable fighters: We kill the Texans with arrows and the Mexicans with rocks. Any still there?

      The Aztecs are said to be related to the Utes of the Great Basin. But those are the only two connections I know about.

      The Comanches drove the Apaches out of South Central plains. The Spanish wondered what had happened to them since the raids stopped.

            Someone put together a compilation of video snippets of him getting visibly excited and bouncing in his chair as he talks about digital IDs, etc.

            Similar to those videos of Gates when he talks about shooting gen.-modified organisims into kids’ arms.

            Wish I could still find it. I had not paid much attention to Blair over the years, but there was ever a case to be made for a reptilian walking among us, I would think he would be a good case study.

      Climate has been hoax-ridden since the nineties, when a kind of real-politik environmental strategy got popular, and focused on promoting the climate narrative by any means necessary to drum up urgency for general environmental goals.

      Later, the corporatocracy latched on for the renoobles grant money and the cheap “green” social cred with the kids.

      The Great Reset folks also use the climate narrative as the popular-discourse stand-in for what is actually, for them, a resource-shortage, overpopulation issue—but that’s not something you can confront the public with, while climate-change is.

      Climate has always been a bit of a fake, and symbolic, issue for whoever’s pushing it.

      What does it signify, this issue promoted beyond its merits by different groups? That everything and everyone ever associated with pushing the climate-change narrative is a full huckster through and through?

      Or would that merely be one of the more extremely simplistic assumptions one could draw..

      • OG September 18, 2023 at 7:48 pm #

        It is because the world is ran by a pyramid. The capstone controls all. The “corporatocracy” and “[t]he Great Reset folks” are one and the same.

      I don’t see anything about this at the Twitter URL.

      However, there is a long analysis at Iain Davisi’s Substack, here

      httpX://iaindavis.substack.com/p/sadiq-khans-ulez-propaganda

      that includes these grafs:

      “. . . Khan’s current Transport Strategy , in keeping with “sustainable development,” focuses in part upon “a shift from private car to public transport.” His pretensions about concern for public health are nauseating.

      Preferring highly questionable scary computer models to empirical science, claiming illegitimate justification for his policies which are actually the continuation of a global agenda, Khan’s response to the real science was swift. He apparently dispatched Shirley Rodrigues, the London Mayor’s deputy for environment and energy, to apply pressure to the director of ICL’s Environmental Research Group, Prof Mark Kelly.

      Rodrigues reportedly told Kelly that Khan’s office was adamant that ULEZ would “dramatically reduce air pollution,” regardless of the empirical measurements that proved otherwise. Having given ICL more than £800,000 since 2021, the funding threat from Khan’s office was well made.

      “According to the Telegraph, Prof. Kelly replied to Rodrigues that he was “pursuing options internally to offset” the inconvenient science. This is presumably the “science-based and collaborative approach” that Khan holds dear as chair of C40. . . .”

      The whole thing is well worth a read.

          What is the solution for homelessness?

          It is not hard to imagine that 40% of the US population could be homeless in the next few years.

          I suspect that the UN anticipates multiple problems, and 15-minute cities is their best solution for the homeless.

          I assume that we would agree that a government has an obligation to provide a viable format for life for its citizens.

          As a result of inflation, that which used to work, does no more. This is happening in real time in the US, but it has not even started to “rain”. Inflation presents an opportunity, and as bad as it might be, one should attempt to make the best of it.

          • Paula D September 19, 2023 at 11:30 am #

            In the US there are 6 empty houses for every homeless person.

            It’s lack of money, not lack of housing, that causes homelessness.

            Not their money, obviously. Our ruling overlords have so much money they each have 6 mansions, fully staffed.

            Meanwhile, just like in China, they keep building new sub-divisions that will not be sold.

          • TPTB-USA September 19, 2023 at 1:41 pm #

            Paula D, I am concerned that inflation coupled with government action will drive costs relating to inefficient energy structures to where they are no longer viable, and it throws the residents into a homeless situation.

            In such cases, high density energy efficient structures would seem to be a viable option. And from our overlord’s pov, it might present an opportunity to condition “poor people have poor ways” to manage their life more efficiently.

            My thoughts have been like Islander’s, in that they will just create ghettos. But an objective assessment, taking into consideration future changes in our lifestyle, would suggest that one should keep an open mind.

            … but if the option was between homeless, and a UBI with a 15 minute “pigeon hole”, I don’t think there would be much to think about.

            TB-TP, yes, I would not like to live like that either.

            I can only hope that those of us who already bought their land will be grandfathered in, until we croak.

            There was a time that I thought it was great fun to live in apartment buildings crowded together, especially when my kids were little, and could find other children to play with just by going outside. That beats being stuck in a suburban home with little humans that you have nothing in common with 24/7. (No wonder young mothers of today dump their newborns into daycare centers as soon as possible.)

            Now I like my privacy and my space.

            But my nephew lived for a year in an apartment in San Francisco in which he shared a room with 9 other men.
            5 bunkbeds, $1200/month apiece. (Golly gee, why is there so much homelessness in SF?)

            I thought it sounded horrible, because I pictured the bunkbeds of my youth, but then I saw an article about Japan, or somewhere, where this was pioneered.
            The bunks were very luxurious, and they had wifi.

            I think that kids nowadays don’t need much beyond wifi.
            At least, that is the impression I get. Why have space, when your nose is always in your phone?

    Now that’s God-fearing right there, Gus. That should make the yucks a little more serious than the sham gander that you and 100 are affording the very strange case of Lahaina 8/8.

    It is your job to be up-to-speed, participate honestly and honourably or “button it,” You have no cred after what you just did, Gus.

      OG, again with the water. It is a fact that a municipal water system can be drawn down to zero pressure by excessive demand on the system. Any fire pump operator knows that. You must always be aware of your incoming pressures as a 0 psi or below coming into the pump will cause cavitation and could severely damage the pump. I wasn’t there but I would have to guess that the water distribution system was simply overwhelmed. I’ve seen videos of residents using garden hoses to quench the flames. They had water but they were just pissin’ in the wind. Around here plumbing code requires water heaters and outside faucets to have vacuum breaks on them to prevent contamination of the municipal supply in the event of a negative pressure condition in the system.

      • OG September 19, 2023 at 9:20 am #

        That may well be, stelmo, but:

        1) Gus lied. He pulled a story out of his butt and presented it as fact.

        2) Why did the authorities not use your reasonable explanation immediately following the 8/8 fire? Why, instead, did the Lahaina water boss announce that she did not allow the release of the needed water because it had spirit?

        The official story either is the truth or it is a lie. Why are you, Gus and 100 running cover for the officials’ lies?

    • gustafson.robert.22 September 19, 2023 at 9:34 am #

      OG, if you have any actual evidence for why either loss of power to the pump/treatment system, or loss of water-pressure could not explain the water’s being off, you could always bring it.

      That the mayor said, “the spirit has gone from the water,” or whatever, is not evidence.

      • OG September 19, 2023 at 10:27 am #

        Apparently you do not even understand the word “evidence,” One Solo. Of course, “Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.” Of course the Lahaina water boss saying that she turned off the water is evidence! D’uh!

        ***
        I am not the prosecuting attorney, Gus. You are not the judge. Out here in the real world (i.e. outside the courtroom), we can think and reason and advance theories that are not yet 100% proven. In fact, that is the very process of proving truth. D’uh!

        ***

            First of all, Gus, enough with the ad homs already. It is tiresome and does nothing in proving or disproving anything vis-a-vis Lahaina. Lahaina is not about me.

            Secondly, it was reported in MSM immediately after the bizarre 8/8 fire that the water boss turned off the water on account of its spirit. Therefore, it was not to be released. I’m not making it up.

            You stating that the power outage caused the water to not run, however and indeed, was you making it up.

            ***
            You are unreal. You don’t pay attention to the story and then demand evidence that I need a Time Machine to deliver to you on time.

            What? I’m to post everything about everything in case you might demand evidence in the future?

          • gustafson.robert.22 September 19, 2023 at 11:28 am #

            Here’s an article with a complete explanation of the “water shut-off” situation. The water in Lahaina was not shuot off. It lost pressure during the fire.

            httpX://www.civilbeat.org/2023/08/a-state-official-refused-to-release-water-for-west-maui-fires-until-it-was-too-late/

            A request for additional water from a neighboring region was initially denied, because of longstanding “water-war” supply-issues on Maui (because the bitch is overpopulated, and taro plantations suck up water). Refusals and tensions like this have been commonplace on Maui for decades.

            OG, this is just one more instance of your grasp on all available information on a topic you’re loudmouthing being uselessly weak.

          • Jarek September 19, 2023 at 1:04 pm #

            At first Gus said that he wasn’t surprised by whatever horror a dying civilization unleashed on its people. But by persistent questioning, OG has gotten to a deeper level. Gus does care in that he wants to be comfortable. He doesn’t like thinking about this stuff, so it’s not true.

            How terrible to have the deeper part of yourself be worse than the surface, the persona and its narrative.

            Nothing would surprise me if Lahaina HAD been microwaved and children abducted by globalist perverts.

    100A says “They refuse to accept that a self-chosen minuscule elite will continue to live a quality of life…”

    Who is “they”? You mean the governed? Trust in the power of the majority is related to believing claims of constitutional protections, freedom and democracy, just causes, ad nauseum.

    Now, if by “they” you mean peer adversaries like Russia and China, then their primary focus arent particular elite lifestyles, but an entire Western media military financial system that threatens their very existence.

    Either way, you can tell by different poster sentiment where they are in the 5 stages. Very few look at the situation pragmatically and conclude – like any chess master – that’s it’s completely untenable.

    Try to see the world from the pov of sullivan, blinken, nuland et al. They know the USA security state lost the international fight but still controls western populations.

    Believing in the magic of a saviour figure, whether Trump or Bobby jr, is truly one of the best class indicators around. No one is turning this around – it’s a failed state by every and any definition.

            It is arguable that NOTHING will happen, in various iterations, that has never before happened in Human History.

    When I’m feeling very intensely American I remind myself that there are some people who spin such deceitful yarns because they actually believe or have convinced themselves that it is for the good of others that they do so. She shouldn’t have said that the vaccine was super safe. That particular emphasis in that moment gave it away. But they never hired me for marketing so. She also made it clear that mandates are very much a tool in their toolkit. Just not needed “for now”. No doubt that those in the pharma gravy train are definitely working to “protect everyone” as they desperately seek to avoid cratering profits. The ultimate question is whether or not their god is worth it.

      • Jarek September 19, 2023 at 1:14 pm #

        Nope. State is not the same as way of life or social arrangement. Many lion prides are destroyed by other lion prides. Chimp groups by stronger chimp groups. Human hunter gatherer groups by other groups – either of the same people or of a different people. Sometimes they are just driven out, sometimes genocided, sometimes genocided and eaten, perhaps keeping some of the women and children.

        • gustafson.robert.22 September 19, 2023 at 1:43 pm #

          The State is a particularly aberrant form of human social arrangement, and fully within the category.

          Human tribal competition is relatively comparable to lion-pride competition, but in both, the violence of the competition is balanced and spaced-out by slowed pace of life—in a way that is difficult for minds made frenetic by State-dwelling to appreciate, usually.

          • Anthea September 21, 2023 at 1:20 am #

            State systems are entirely different from social systems–necessarily, due to the State being anti-social in nature. A state system requires a class system, or an exploiting versus exploited class. The usual mechanism for this is the land-tenure system, in which the exploiting class owns the land–that is, “land” in the economic sense of “means of production.”

      • SoftStarLight September 19, 2023 at 2:12 pm #

        Wow! 35,000 years is a long time for a social arrangement or a culture to exist so that would be longer than anything we’ve seen. At least with modern people. The Neanderthals existed for like 200,000 years so they may have had a social arrangement or culture that existed for that long or maybe even longer than that!

        • gustafson.robert.22 September 19, 2023 at 2:28 pm #

          I was thinking of the Australians, who were steady-state for 40k years, or New Guinea.

          Some in North America had 20k-year continuity, surviving threats from various civilizational/Statist projects.

          10-35k years is the range for the recent stable homo-sapien hunter-gatherer traditions, all over the globe.

          • SoftStarLight September 19, 2023 at 3:28 pm #

            Oh ok, yeah I didn’t about it but your right. The Australians and the ancient North Americans did exist for a long time prior to the more modern civilizations. Not sure about Australia, but I don’t think though that life in North America was stable. There was a lot of wars and fighting all the time. And often the tribes grew into larger regional confederations. Sort of like states but not states.

          • Jarek September 19, 2023 at 7:22 pm #

            There’s no reason to think that it’s not hundreds of thousands years old, going back before Homo Sapiens, perhaps even before the Homo line itself.

  47. SoftStarLight September 19, 2023 at 2:10 am #

    Yes. Sometimes white people get on my nerves too. I do recall from when I worked the checkout two fascinating stories from two very different people, regular customers, one a Peruvian, and one a Moroccan. Both of whom told me with apparent complete conviction that their respective cultures were founded by essentially what I can only describe as tall Nordics. The Peruvian gentleman went so far as to say the Inca were white and the Spaniard conquistadors were brown. I remember responding with a perplexed look with a simple but kinda drawn out and confused “really?” lol. I thought this all was due to some kinda colonialism adaptations but who am I to judge them right so there’s that. But the more I have read of history the more it becomes less clear as to what may have occurred really anywhere at any point. If we live in illusions about the past just think of all the illusions of the future we believe in and brace yourselves to consider the illusions that are your present.

    • Jarek September 19, 2023 at 1:17 pm #

      Yes, Whites lived in the high Andes. But the Incas found them and conquered them, slaying or enslaving the men and taking the beautiful women as their brides. The Spanish said the Inca nobles were almost as fair skinned as they were.

      • SoftStarLight September 19, 2023 at 2:06 pm #

        Wow that is fascinating as I never really knew that. I wonder where the original Incas came from? I also am very curious about the Nazca Indians. They were the ones who created those massive pictograms in the Atacama Desert that can only be seen if flying above the landscape. It’s very hard to imagine how they actually did that without some sort of tech.

        • SoftStarLight September 19, 2023 at 2:08 pm #

          Oh, so I just looked the Nazca up again to be sure and actually their ancient pictograms are in the Nazca Desert, not the Atacama Desert.

          • Jarek September 19, 2023 at 2:28 pm #

            It’s a good question as to how they made them or why. They only come into focus from high above and it’s totally flat for miles.

            Both deserts are in Chile? Is one in the north and one in the south?

          • SoftStarLight September 19, 2023 at 3:23 pm #

            Well I think its the Atacama Desert that is in Chile. Apparently it is the Nazca Desert which is in Peru. The Andes create deserts on their leeward sides because they basically take all of the moisture out of the clouds and also the Pacific is cold off the coast in South America so that creates high pressures and drier weather too.

        • Jarek September 19, 2023 at 2:26 pm #

          Yes, the Incas were usurpers from the “north” – just like the Aztecs in Mexico. They took over earlier civilizations. One of the Peruvians ones was hyper-sexual showing every variation imaginable, including with animals in their sculptures. There were a number of earlier ones in Peru and in Mexico as well.

          Where do the Whites fit in? I don’t think anybody knows. They’re not in any of the images as far as I know. Not sure about the legends. Maybe they were a small group, recently arrived and just trying to stay hidden away from all of these peoples.

          • SoftStarLight September 19, 2023 at 3:26 pm #

      No one who has a clue needs to “connect” any does. Court jews have always been essential to any/all regimes.

      Military power alone cannot defeat networked banking (ie funded opposition). Likewise financial/media/cultural control cannot withstand direct kinetic pressure.

      The genius move by both sides is a unique alliance that both maximizes capital funding for weapons R&D, procurement and operational troops expenditures, while at the same type enjoying the full range of propaganda that unifies the people against a hated invented enemy.

      If you cannot appreciate just how clever this arrangement truly is, then you are going to continue to be frustrated and angry.

      I keep suggesting that one needs to first understand the macro view in order to correctly assess logical or likely outcomes.

      If you can read what I wrote above without getting unduly exercised. but rather sit back and say, ok, what’s next, then you’ll be in a position to enjoy the (evil) beauty of it all.

      • OG September 19, 2023 at 12:27 pm #

        Gus has not been jabbed? Really? I’m shocked! A 1 didn’t willingly submit? I’m flabbergasted. I don’t know what to say.

        ***
        Is that right, Gus? You believe 9 out of 10 official stories on the biggest false flags of our lifetimes but you smelled a rat on the jabs?

            That may or may not be, Gus, but that is beside the point.

            Are you here to tell us that you believe that only 1 of 10 was a false flag but that, while almost always believing the “officials” and their “official stories,” you did not get jabbed in 2021 when most were doing just that?

            You are a unicorn, Gus. A total unicorn or a lying man full of sh!t. A or B.

            ***
            Of course Gus is jabbed up the wazoo, GA. I find it best to doubt proven liars.

            And, it you’re going to quote a really well known writer, do him/her the courtesy of looking up the quote first. It takes 3 seconds. In this case, you now know the correct quote, for which I do not even require a thank you, since I anticipated it with my ‘you’re welcome’.

            Do you really believe that everyone who has ever corrected you has done so out of rage? Frankly, I’d doubt it, and would suspect that this pretense is another instance of your pathological lying.

            However, supposing you do believe this, then it would follow that you spent your childhood cowering under your school desk, because you were traumatized when some rage-filled teacher corrected your spelling.

            So…. Perhaps you do believe this nonsense, and it explains why you now are so fearful that you live your life as an unemployed incel, pretty much without human contact.

      OG I explained DEW’s upthread. Of course they exist .They are in simple terms a focused beam of electromagnetic radiation. Nothing more. Their use is very limited as the amounts of energy involved are tremendous. Useful perhaps to take out a guidance system on a missile or drone. Or to mess with an unruly crowd. Lighting a town on fire instantaneously. That would take a photon torpedo and Scotty can’t get the reactor up that high at the moment. “She’s gonna blow, Captain!”

      • OG September 19, 2023 at 5:49 pm #

        Eyewitness reports indicate that you are part right and part wrong. Lahaina was not lit up instantly, correct. A whole town at once is probably more power than they can muster but, even more importantly, that wouldn’t be selective. A 1-metre swath, on the other hand …

        Their DEWs are more powerful than you give them credit for. They have the technology and they use it.

        Do give their DEWs their dues.

    Regarding the weirdo who showed up at RFK Jr.’s campaign event, his campaign manager (Dennis Kucinich), has written an open letter to President Biden, asking again for Secret Service protection for Bobby.

    One of the points made in the letter, which Bobby highlighted, has gotten me ticked off-

    “He is not the only one in danger — every person who attends a campaign event is at risk. A specter of violence haunts our political process.”

    No duh. Doesn’t anyone remember the violence against Trump supporters trying to attend his campaign events?

    Bobby may not have known about that, but he has to be aware of January 6, and what happened to people who showed up to support their candidate whom they believed had the election stolen from them.

    They’ve been languishing in a dungeon ever since.

    RFK Jr. has never mentioned them.

    I know for a fact that a lot of Trump supporters wanted to attend Junior’s event against the vaxx at the Capitol, but they were afraid of walking into a trap.

    It comes weeks after Sadiq Khan expanded his controversial policy to cover the whole of London – clobbering thousands more drivers with a £12.50 charge.

Also one numbskull says a one meter wide laser beam ignites a fire path 1 mile long in 2 minutes. In that two minutes the chinese satellite would have traveled over 700 miles and be nowhere near Hawaii. Not to mention the amounts of energy to create a 1 meter wide laser would be incredible. We’re not talking the Starship Enterprise here I hope.

          Finding the truth in a black op is a process, stelmo. For example, I am not convinced that it was Chinese satellites. The fact that Maui is US Military HQ for DEW R&D makes me think that the Chinese angle could be a planted red herring.

          What I do know is that the official story is complete hogwash. Once that is known, the investigation takes years and even decades (see 9/11).

      Thank you, OG. It’s certainly all incriminating.

      At the same time, if there are 1500 missing children, there should be at around 1000 parents looking for them, unless the parents were also killed. I’m not minimising what’s happened to the children. I get that they’re missing/unaccounted for.

    In 2017 a little boy climbed into the gorilla enclosure at an Ohio zoo.

    Onlookers screamed and yelled and fell out. The gorilla picked up the boy to remove him from the cacophony.

    The zookeepers decided to kill the gorilla to “save” the child.

    Why didn’t they try to convince the onlookers to be quiet first?

    Oh, yeah, good luck with that. Easier to kill than to appeal to human rationality.

      Zoos are inherently cruel things and this is just too much to take. The gorilla probably thought the boy was trying to escape the crazy acting humans. These are the moments that I just start to hate people and I have to just remember my bearings. Maybe the the stupid people should be shot and not the poor animal. But if you say that people look at you in utter horror mostly. Likely if the gorilla thought that the boy was not running from the people then it would not have been acting in a protective way and the boy could have just climbed back up the fence.

      Interesting. I did not know that. Are you saying that the Toluene detected in Lahaina water is from the brush fire and not from explosives (notwithstanding many eyewitness claims of explosions)?

      And can you provide a source?

        OG, have you ever been near a transformer exploding on a powerline? Even when a wire goes down and the fuses on the lines blow there is an incredible flash and explosive sound. Happens all the time.I’ve been to many downed wire calls. I found a great video on the tube. Watch it and tell me that the powerlines did not start the fires. Good sequence shot at 5:16

          Thanks for that 10 minutes, stelmo. I have watched it but now note I never ever said that downed power lines did not start any brush fires on Maui on 8/8. In fact, they undoubtedly did.

          Power lines completely obliterate a tree in New Brunswick, Canada.

          What I kept seeing in this video is that the organics (trees, leaves, bushes, brush) burn first. Always. Organics are never the only thing left standing after exceeding 2500F (melted auto glass) like in Lahaina, HI and Paradise, CA.

          Black ops are very sophisticated. It is not an arsonist camping in the Maui brush awaiting the right wind (a la Gus). No, in relief, black ops are meticulously planned and executed.

          HAARP generated the winds, the winds &/or sabotage dropped the power lines, the resulting brush fires created diversion and plausible deniability and then DEWs incinerated those poor souls barricaded on Front Street.

          Bob’s your uncle.

          The Lahaina eyewitnesses reported cars exploding on Front Street, not transformers.

Why anyone without the experience, lets call it “wisdom” could argue your subject of expertise, is telling. My only conclusion is that they have yet to discover fire in Canada….

            I believe that you are being disingenuous, EF. I am 58 years old and we finally got fire in Saskatchewan way back in Grade 5.

            I do not try to over-rule stelmo and his expertise in the least.

            For example:

            HAARP = wind
            Wind + Downed power lines = Brush fires
            Citizens barricaded by Vegas Turkey-shoot John Pelletier while children are trafficked
            DEWs exploding cars on Front Street
            Top-secret 5+ mile guarded fencing
            Successful land grab

            How does that differ in the slightest from what stelmo’s expertise tells us?

            See, EF, my expertise is black ops. I have been studying DC my whole life and I have been studying their black ops intensively for the past quarter century.

            Lahaina is a slam-dunk black op without refuting a single thing that stelmo says.

          • elysianfield September 19, 2023 at 6:26 pm #

            OG,
            Well, if you were an operator with 25 years of experience in black ops, your views might have more weight. Again, there is education, and then there is wisdom…wisdom is a direct result of first-person experience. Can I give you an example?

            I got a buddy…let’s call him Pete. Pete retired from a major carrier as a senior command airline pilot. He flew heavies overseas, and everywhere else, and he was senior enough to pick his routs…handsome, husky, hazel-eyed and hairy chested…the apex of his profession. I have a single-engine land pilot’s license. Pete became a reserve officer on a local, very small police department…left after only a few months. I spent four years in what, at the time, might have been the most dangerous city in Americal…maybe even the world. I also have done graduate work in the field.

            Pete will be quick to tell me about law enforcement…even to the extent that he will criticize patrol methods, how to handle violent encounters, how to control a scene, etc., and insists that my recountings are full of shit…that my memory is faulty.

            He does not respect my education nor on the job observations, and yet, as a private pilot with almost 50 hours of flight time, I believe what he says about airline operations, pilotage, etc. I do not interject his stories with my vast experience. What is wrong with this scenario?

            More than once, when I failed to accept his vitriol, I would stop him and ask him “Pete, have I ever told you how to land a 757 at Stapleton during a blizzard with a `15 mile per hour cross wind?” He had, and told me how. I laughed and told him that I never would, because I had no idea how to do so, and he should not question my experience, either.

            We still talk regularly…but never about Law Enforcement, by agreement.

            I’m not trying to give you a hard time, or impugn your abilities,. If Q describes how to set up a double-entry book keeping system, or discusses forensic accounting, I would tend to listen and learn. If our Host decided to recount his meetings with and observations of Jann Wenner, I would certainly listen. If the Saint were to discuss fornication…well where are his Bonafide’s?  Stick to what you know….

            Interesting story, thanks for that. But it does not apply to me and my discussions with stelmo because I am not disputing his experience, expertise or findings.

            Rather, I am using and incorporating his shared wisdom into the theories of how the black op was executed on 8/8. My sequence of events does not counter anything that he has said.

            Also, we must question experts:
            1) to learn
            2) lest Dr Fauci controls the narrative.

            ***
            It is valid to ask the expert, “In the 10 minute video, organics all burn first – every time – yet in Paradise and Lahaina organics were the only things left standing. Why?”

            Good exchange. Almost nobody ever does what OG is doing and thus nobody gets it. He wants your input – especially if learned. But that’s not where it ends, that’s where it starts.

            Experts are to be used, not worshiped. The Elite get that and know how to use them.

            Your original perspective was fine: It’s all to be expected. But you couldn’t leave it alone, yet you were too proud and/or lazy to really study it or think about it. And perhaps you enjoyed goading OG? Thus you ended up in consensus trance, backing the master narrative. What a barren place to be. That’s what inner carelessness can lead to.

          • gustafson.robert.22 September 19, 2023 at 11:09 pm #

            When a fool calls “black op” where there is none, or at least where calling one is premature, it harms any truthful cause.

            Just because something is to be expected does not mean it is happening in a particular instance.

            But you’re as sloppy as OG.

          • gustafson.robert.22 September 19, 2023 at 11:36 pm #

            Subject was interesting to me because there is a whole army of OG’s out there, pounding the same pavement he is on this, which probably contributes to OG’s persistent focus on it.

            In the wake of covid, most everyone who’s figured out, more or less, the hoax there, is going increasingly off the rails thinking they have some deep vision into everything, and it’s becoming a huge problem on tbe Right, in my opinion. Most are getting the big-head disease. Everyone’s an expert on the Great Reset and the diabolical elites now.. Literally, 50% of the population is one of these experts.

    Paragraphs to remember:

    “…Karl Popper in “The Open Society and Its Enemies” warned against utopian engineering, massive social transformations, almost always implanted by force, and led by those who believe they are endowed with a revealed truth. These utopian engineers carry out the wholesale destruction of systems, institutions and social and cultural structures in a vain effort to achieve their vision. In the process, they dismantle the self-correcting mechanisms of incremental and piecemeal reform that are impediments to that grand vision. History is replete with murderous utopian social engineering — the Jacobins, the communists, the fascists and now, in our own age, the globalists, or neoliberal imperialists.

    “Libya, like Iraq and Afghanistan, fell victim to the self-delusions peddled by humanitarian interventionists — Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Ben Rhodes, Samantha Power, and Susan Rice. The Obama administration armed and backed an insurgent force that they believed would do the bidding of the U.S. Obama in a recent post urged people to support aid agencies to alleviate the suffering of the people of Libya, a plea that ignited an understandable backlash on social media.”

      Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and others are directly responsible for the deaths in Libya due to flooding. Their war deprived Libya of a holistic government and social order that could have at least dealt with the disaster even if playing catchup. Libya is basically another Somalia at this point though.

      Back Home With The Homies

      Although I haven’t looked at it in detail, the Statists and their ‘entrepreneurs’ seem especially all over Africa now, never mind historical Euro colonization.

      —-

      “As of 2023, the population of Africa is estimated to be over 1.3 billion, with a growth rate of more than 2.5% per year. Africa is the fastest-growing continent, increasing by 2.35% per year as of 2021…

      The most populous African country is Nigeria, with over 206 million inhabitants as of 2020 and a growth rate of 2.6% p.a. The total fertility rate (births per woman) for Africa is 4.7 as of 2018, the highest in the world according to the World Bank. The population of Africa has grown rapidly over the past century and shows a large youth bulge, further reinforced by a low life expectancy of below 50 years in some African countries…” ~ Wikipedia

      “Africa is the second largest continent after Asia, covering about one-fifth of the total land surface of Earth. Its total land area is approximately 11,724,000 square miles (30,365,000 square km), and it measures about 5,000 miles (8,000 km) from north to south and about 4,600 miles (7,400 km) from east to west. The continent is bounded on the west by the Atlantic Ocean, on the north by the Mediterranean Sea, on the east by the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean, and on the south by the mingling waters of the Atlantic and Indian oceans.” ~ Britannica

        Yeah, a lot of people think Greenland is super big because of the map distortion thingy. Greenland is a large island for sure but not nearly what it appears to be on some maps. Sometimes maps are racist because they physically minimize the global south which is overwhelmingly black and brown.

          That’s why you need to get a globe, a type that you can tip upside down. It’s a good mental exercise to put the Southern Hemisphere on top. or to put someplace else on top. The sphere has much to teach us too, just like the pyramid.

          The Elite also like to look down on the Earth so to speak, by using the perspective of the North pole. Not a globe but a regular two dimensional image. A symbol of their triumph.

    How wildfires can contaminate drinking water

    New research shows that the heat causes volatile organic compounds to leach out of plastic service line pipes into water

    cen.acs.org/environment/water/wildfires-contaminate-drinking-water/100/i20

    In November 2018, a wildfire blazed through Paradise, California, a town of 26,000 in the forested foothills of the Sierra Nevada. Flames raged for more than 2 weeks, killing 85 people and incinerating many of the buildings, making the Camp Fire, as it was called, the state’s deadliest and most destructive wildfire.

    The state asked the testing laboratory for only the benzene results of its gas chromatography analysis. But Whelton asked for all the results and saw so many contaminants that “the chromatograph lit up like a Christmas tree,” he says. Other VOCs in Paradise’s water included naphthalene, styrene, toluene, and xylenes. “You need to know how to look for unknowns,” Whelton says. “The state didn’t know what questions to ask—it’s a gap in policy.”

    Our loveable knuckleheads with their good ole American incompetence! Am I right?

    ***
    So … upthread it was claimed that toluene (which I never even heard of before today) is a result of wild fires. And the precedence of this claim? Paradise, California!

    • stelmosfire September 19, 2023 at 5:40 pm #

      Never heard of Toluene? I’ve got a gallon in the garage. 25 bucks a gallon at the hardware store. Good paint thinner and degreaser. Most toluene contamination in municipal water supplies is the result of industrial pollution. Volatile organics are ubiquitous in our modern society. Millions of Americans drink some every day. 71 water systems in CA. alone effecting 2.5 million people just in one state.

        It is interesting – a toluene spike showing up in the water after Paradise and then again after Lahaina.

    Re the Pritzkers and Obama,
    Kevin Barrett has a comment at the Unz Review (I think I already linked this piece):

    ” The mega-Zionist Pritzker family “made” Obama, who appointed IDF vet Rahm Emmanuel as his Chief of Staff because “we owed some people.” As for McCain, he was another crime-linked uber-Zionist whose father presided over the USS Liberty coverup.

    From Meyer Lansky owning J. Edgar Hoover and his files, to Clinton’s biggest Jewish donor sending Monica Lewinsky into the White House, to Mossadnik Jeffrey Epstein blackmailing American heavy-hitters, it seems that all of the many areas of Jewish-Zionist overrepresentation, political blackmail is near the top of the list. ”

    • stelmosfire September 20, 2023 at 1:54 pm #

      From your video. 1 trillion watt laser x 1 quadrillionth second burst = .001 of a watt energy. My microwave is 1200 watts or 1.2 million times as powerful and it takes 2-3 minutes to boil a cup of coffee. Do these people even do the math? A really powerful metal shop laser for cutting steel is probably 20-30 kilowatts and the output is continuous. Maybe 40% efficient so it consumes 50,000 watts of juice. Israel’s “Iron Beam” anti-missile laser is estimated at 50-100 kw. That it a massive amount of energy and the range is only about 4 1/2 miles.

      • OG September 20, 2023 at 2:31 pm #

        It is not my video. I merely point to it to further discussion.

        BTW, it is actually:

        1 trillion watt laser x 200 quadrillionth second burst = 0.2 of a watt energy.

        And: Yeah? So? What of it?

        It was you that discredited the Japanese scientist for saying on MSM nine years ago that they had terawatt lasers. You said that that was impossible.

        Now you’re saying, “Well they’re not on long!” in a total copout, man.

        The expert was wrong.

        There’s a 3rd reason to question experts.

        1) Learn

          I thought Kaku stated that scientists were shooting the trilllion watt lasers and changing the weather. Yea OG , Kaku confused me. I was under the impression it was a laser “beam” they were shooting as was shown in the illustration. The J. Dore show says “a short 200 femtoseconds — or one quadrillinth of a second.” I would state it more like “a short 200 femtoseconds — or 200 quadrillinth’s of a second.” I’m easily confused.

    One month from now, Oct 20th, I’ll be attending my 65th HS reunion with my wife. I got this crazy idea in my head to offer to say Grace before the luncheon meal. I have never done such a thing other than at my own dining room table with 10 or so family members in attendance.

    Saying grace in front of a sizable crowd who are not family usually falls to what I call Big Christians. At the previous reunion five years ago that task was handled willingly and competently by my classmate Fred F. He probably could do it blind-folded and without preparation.

    But these all-but-professionally delivered Graces are so cliche. I figured I’d write a Grace and just offer my services to the reunion committee when I showed up. Following is what I have written and I’d like your opinion whether I’m treading on thin ice with some of my themes.

    In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, or of Mohammed, or Buddha, or Yahweh, or Ganesh, or the central Star of our solar system, or whichever deity you believe in…

    We thank you Lord, for preserving this diminished number of our original 300+ classmates, to survive to age 83, give or take a year, and for our children, our grand and even our great grand children who will project our genetic material into the future.

    We lament the absence and/or passing of our other classmates who we will be joining, alas, all too soon.

    Thank you also Lord for our Zero Co-pay Advantage Health Plans, for our 16 year old female Primary Care Physicians and, as well, for those 14-slot plastic pill containers from which we dole out our morning and evening medications.

    And, further, thank you for allowing us to grow up in the sweet-spot of all times and places, the 1950s in Collingswood, NJ where there were no Gays, no Lesbians, no Trannies nor any other persons of suspect sexual proclivities. At least none that we were aware of at the time…

    And this place, this town, where there was no racism because there were no People of Color, and no Chinese or Indians (dot not feather) and nobody with a strange accent… because we were literally ALL as White as the driven snow.

    Also we thank you for our 401K Plans which we have been drawing down by way of Required Minimum Distributions for ‘lo these past 13 years. And thank you for the GPS which guided us to the Tavistock Country Club today because our… umm uuh… memory is not what it yoose to be.

    Thank you, of course, for our Apple and Android Cell Phones, which we have our noses glued to at all times because, God forbid we should have to converse with the family or friends who are seated with us.

    And finally, Bless us Oh Lord for these thy gifts which we are about to
    receive from thy bounty (I sprang for the $45 steak) through Christ our Lord

    AMEN

    AuthaGraph is an approximately equal-area world map projection invented by Japanese architect Hajime Narukawa in 1999. The map is made by equally dividing a spherical surface into 96 triangles, transferring it to a tetrahedron while maintaining area proportions, and unfolding it onto a rectangle: it is a polyhedral map projection. The map substantially preserves sizes and shapes of all continents and oceans while it reduces distortions of their shapes, as inspired by the Dymaxion map. The projection does not have some of the major distortions of the Mercator projection, like the expansion of countries in far northern latitudes, and allows for Antarctica to be displayed accurately and in whole. Triangular world maps are also possible using the same method. The name is derived from ‘authalic’ and ‘graph’.” ~ Wikipedia

    World population: Quarter of Earth will be African in 2050 ~ cnbc.com/2015/07/30/world-population-quarter-of-earth-will-be-african-in-2050.html

    “The U.S. Census Bureau has just released its last batch of race-ethnic population estimates in advance of the 2020 census, with data indicating that the national headcount will reveal a more diverse nation than was previously expected. The new estimates show that nearly four of 10 Americans identify with a race or ethnic group other than white, and suggest that the 2010 to 2020 decade will be the first in the nation’s history in which the white population declined in numbers.

    Over the decade’s first nine years, racial and ethnic minorities accounted for all of the nation’s population growth, and were responsible for population gains in many states, metropolitan areas, and counties that would have otherwise registered losses due to declines in their white populations. And while the U.S. and more than half of its states have shown absolute declines in populations under age 25, such declines were largely due to white losses among the youth population. These declines would have been even greater were it not for youthful gains among racial and ethnic minorities, especially the Latino or Hispanic population.” ~ brookings.edu/articles/new-census-data-shows-the-nation-is-diversifying-even-faster-than-predicted/

    “When seeking to identify the number of black people in the world, it is essential for one to thoughtfully consider the complicated definition of the term ‘black’.

    If you believe that ‘black’ is as simply defined as a person of African descent, then the total number of black people in the world is about 7.8 billion (2020). Every person alive now, and every person who has ever lived is of African ancestry. The only question is the number of generations it’s been since a person’s ancestors left. So, although controversial, that might be about the most objective answer one could hope to get. However, this is not the definition that is most commonly used, and therefore, not the definition that we will be operating under for the sake of this exploration. That being said, it is of the utmost importance to remember that race is, ultimately, a construct and that the prescribed title of every race is largely synonymous with ‘different than me’.

    Culture is real, heritage is real, ethnicity is real, but race, in many ways, is an aspect of divisiveness, and one that is often ascribed to a person from without, not within. Speaking from personal experience, when declaring their race, biracial people (half-black, half-white for example) often feel compelled to select the option that is more visible, more prescribable. Unremarkably, this often correlates with the option that is in the minority. Therefore, even though I am ‘half-white’, I always select the Black/African-American option when stating my race on official documents or surveys; because the people that I meet would view me as such. Does this mean that I should be counted for both black and white population statistics? This example illustrates the complexity and uncertainty of this question and serves as a disclaimer to any potential answer.

    With all hopes of an objective answer out the window and all divisive notions behind us, we can begin to consider the figures based on the more conventionally held definitions of a black person…

    In total, there are around 1.2 billion black people in the world adhering strictly to those of recent Sub-Saharan descent. However, the term black is essentially nonsense, the number climbs much much higher even if we evaluate based on an objective metric like the measuring of melanin. For example, the Indian subcontinent is home to millions of dark-skinned people.

    In South Africa, 79% of people are black.” ~ worldpopulationreview.com/economics/how-many-black-people-are-in-the-world

        Well, for starters, it’s not true.

        Latest DNA studies are rewriting this theory.

        Not all humans originated in Africa.

        It’s called multi-regional theory.

        • The Man They Call Zazelle September 20, 2023 at 12:17 pm #

          Just more off the cuff, since I have to step out…

          I’ve heard of it, but it’s kind of incidental and not necessarily true, just a hypothesis or theory, unless of course there’s hard evidence that has recently come out. That’s possible. So has it? The onus is on you for support, since you mentioned it/made the case for it. So go get it and we’ll take a look.

          Also, some mutations, such as for blue eyes, say, may have happened outside of Africa, yes? So, or but, if we’re all ultimately from the same offshoots, if we rewind the tape far enough, then what point(s) do we want to make exactly?

          Then there’s some Neanderthal genetics that seem to have got mixed in with Sapiens’.

          But at the end of the day, we are where we are, hence my articles above I guess.

          Furthermore, there may be so-called ‘whites’ that might have more in common with so-called ‘blacks’ than other so-called ‘whites’, which seems like a wrench thrown in, at least for some people. What do you think?

          Lastly, so far, at least to my knowledge, no one, like those who might like to use those black-and-white terms for people as if they’re comic book caricature outlines, have offered scientifically-valid definitions for them that can, say, withstand peer review.

          But, hey, I’m all ears. Knock yourself out.

            And how the select members of these (because not all people of an ethnicity or religion or socio-economic standing are involved) memberships are working for their betterment at your detriment.

    This is interesting. As we discussed above, the US is big on blaming atrocities on Russia, even when it is absurd to do so.
    ( Not just Russia, of course. Remember when they told us that Assad “gassed his own people”, just as UN inspectors arrived in Damascus? Too Stupid To Believe, but they convinced a lot of Americans, even though, for once, the Brits refused to go along with such nonsense.)

    Hence, when it comes to Russia, we have the Bucha massacre, back at the beginning of the Russian intervention, when Russian sympathizers were found dead 3 days after Russia had pulled out of Bucha, and after the SBU had moved in.

    Too Stupid To Believe, but the Mighty Wurlitzer and the squawking heads repeat it to this day.

    Then we had ethnic Russian refugees waiting to board a train to Russia at the Kramatorsk railway station, who were shelled with a missile, killing 63 people. The photos of the missile showed the ID on it, proving it was a Kiev regime missile, but the Mighty Wurlitzer insisted that the Russians bombed their own civilians.

    Then a couple of weeks ago, as Blinken arrived in Kiev, ethnic Russians in a Donbass marketplace were shelled.
    Video showed citizens looking north as they heard the missile coming, and a reflection in a car showing it came from Kiev-held territory, but the Mighty Wurlitzer screamed that it was Russia killing their own civilians, again.

    But for some reason, the NY Times has decided to tell the truth about the last atrocity.
    Why?
    Why tell the truth now, about only one of the Big Lies, just as Zelensky arrives in the USA for the UN meeting?

    Most analysists are speculating that the US is about ready to dump Zelensky, and this is the propaganda they are spreading to ready the US population for the act.

    Sounds legit.

    It most certainly is NOT that the NY Times has developed a sudden interest in telling the truth. That is Too Stupid To Believe.

    Heading into 2024, the election year, we have Ahern telling the UN that we must eliminate free speech, we have the mainstream propaganda outlets (in UK) in conjunction with big-tech silencing and deplatforming alternative information sites/personalities, and we have Biden (Mayorkas) announcing a new homeland security component to combat “disinformation”, AKA anti-establishment facts, spearheaded by none other than crooked Clapper and ugly mug Brennan, two of the dirtiest and compromised deep state intel people around.

    @OG:

    Yesterday, 24 hours ago, I posted a comment about directed energy weapons. I had done some research into whether they really exist or not. I came across a website which was very informative. The bottom line is they do exist, and are operative now. The article I referenced was written by an impressive authority figure with vast direct experience with DEWs.

    Since the article basically validated what you’ve seen saying, I said that CFNers shouldn’t castigate you about your persistence, and I said you were brave to do so, and weren’t crazy.

    Now, I’ve been regularly posting here for 14 or 15 years, and to date never had a comment going into moderation. Until this comment. It is, I think, still in moderation. I copied my post today and re-submitted it a few minutes ago, and the reply was that it is going to moderation.

    As you may know, until recently I’ve never questioned the possibility that someone or some entity is watching what we are saying. But that may well be the case. Now I’m very sure that something is going on. We are being watched and censored, AFAIC. WTF? I am pissed!

      I wouldn’t get too upset about the moderation thing, though. WordPress (undoubtedly owned by Blackguard/Vanrock) has a list of verboten websites. Your comment tripped a wire and went into a bucket with a hole in the bottom. Nobody will ever actually “moderate” it.

      The energy from the weapon is directed from the arc between electrodes.

        “Of all giant solar mirrors, the most famous invention was created by the Greek mathematician and scientist Archimedes, born in 287 B.C. Some alternative history researchers call it an “ancient death ray”.

        The fearsome solar mirror was used in the Battle of Syracuse in 212-215 BC, to set fire on the invading Roman fleet.”

    Re the conversation about race and human species.

    My understanding is that modern humans are a composite of several different human species from the past. Even though sub-Saharan people may lack Neanderthal DNA specifically they still have DNA from an unidentified archaic human species. So just wanted to place out there that we are descended from multiple different human species. And yet tribalism is simply a natural proclivity of humans. You will need to rewire us to change that. Perhaps that is another point of the coming brain microchipping program.

    • Jarek September 20, 2023 at 3:34 pm #

      Yes – an unidentified human species that our genome lacks. Thanks for remind me about that.

      So? So we’re not descended from the sub-Saharans at all. We have a common ancestor of course, but they took a detour, probably a bad one.

      Home Erectus had a brain much, much smaller than ours. If the “ghost species” was a variant of Homo Erectus, surviving in Africa long after becoming extinct in most other places, it would explain much about them.

      • 100th Avatar September 20, 2023 at 4:07 pm #

        I normally struggle to find any humor in your posts or ripostes, but that detour line had me genuinely laughing out loud.

            It seems to me that something developed neuroplasticity in humans to free us from the prison of instinct, the programmed in neural networks of lower animals.

    To take off for lunch because you think the fire is out, without leaving a skeleton crew to make sure flames don’t spring up again?

      Islander, after structure fires were out we would sometimes leave a man behind in a car to watch out for rekindles. Sucks to be the low guy. Hard to really know if you got all the hidden embers. We covered a lot of area and also had loads of brush fires. Probably not like the grassland fires that I think Hawaii gets. If our woodland fires got into a pine grove, where the needles are feet deep, it would take days to put them out. The fire would smolder underground and pop up again days later even after soaking with tons of water. Again we would just leave a guy or two to babysit the thing.

      • OG September 20, 2023 at 8:25 pm #

        Right. Those are normal fires where the organics burn first. In Paradise and Lahaina, however, the organics didn’t burn at all while 2500F+ temps melted all the glass in the metal (and barricaded) cars like they were zapped with DEWs or something.

Ann could have walked 2 hundred yards and been out of the fire zone. Of course she could never know that. I counted 46 cars burned on Front street between Papalaua and Baker St. That must be the kill zone of which you speak. Look at 271 front st . The house is untouched . why? who knows.

        If you want a good blow by blow account of the fire that day read this story from a firefighter who was in town all day fighting the fire. They had water but it was hit or miss as the fire grew to engulf the whole downtown area.

      • gustafson.robert.22 September 21, 2023 at 6:58 am #

        According to Ann Williams, 10 thousand people were trying to get out of Lahaina all at once (already a recipe for a traffic jam). The best exits, to the highway behind town, were blocked because “multiple power lines were already down on the highway,” making the traffic in town really awful near her house. The highway situation was forcing everyone down to Front Street, she says.

        Then she says the one open way out, north, was clear for a while. Then, further down that way, there was a backup where the cop seemed to be stopping people for no reason, the only strange element in the whole situation.

        Certainly the reason this one cop was stopping people on a clear section of road should be investigated, but the obvious likely reason is some order had gone out to shut the whole highway down and any other road with downed powerlines, and this cop was manning his (seemingly clear) station to close the wrecked highway.

        But of course, the downed powerlines were probably a black op……..

    The new aristocracy

    While smart cities will never actually be implemented – for reasons discussed here many times (ie lack of energy surplus) – the basic guiding principles are sound from a primitive power & control perspective.

    That is, in the looming neo-feudal future, the idea of controlling employment, housing, mobility, health/diet and money simply returns humanity to all preceding history before surplus temporarily freed the serfs.

    The twist in the story however, as we fully retrace the ‘freedom arc’, are the the demographic changes intentionally being engineered to ensure those with living memories are replaced by those who will not only willingly comply with dictates, but won’t have any baggage associated with expectations and resentments..

    Enter the new aristocracy – if we date the current era back to William, with the current fixed class structure essentially in place for 1,000 years, do new opportunities arise in the entirely new future living arrangement?

    Think it through: how will existing US/EU power structures survive the collapse of the dollar, and along with that, the defeat of the MIC at the hands of Russia, China and global south?

    In the new order, will certain peoples and or groups emerge from the reconstituted EU and rump US states to create entirely new power structures that will rule over the neo-feudal era?

        As JHK and many commenters have already noted, that WEF dream ship has already sailed.

        The great re-set goal was predicated on energy surplus to maintain the private credit money system. (Hence the war against Russia to gain access to its vast stores of natural resources.)

        This crucial factor, by which the dollar reserve system could effortlessly fund both MIC weapons development and procurement, as well as afford operational deployment, along with bribing/threatening foreign governments, has essentially been lost.

        As I have frequently wrote: “no tickie, no washie”. The feverish fantasies of NO and further travelers have no basis from which to proceed following the West’s asskicking loss in Ukraine.

        But that isn’t to suggest the original plan will be abandoned. After all, the grand reset was nothing more than attaching a label to reality reasserting the natural state of massive inequality.

        So the divide will still exist, but who will rule? (We know the serfs will be hispanic and blacks along with some % of whites.)

        That’s the question I posed above regarding the new aristocracy.

        • gustafson.robert.22 September 20, 2023 at 9:31 pm #

          Like the point about the West losing out on resource consolidation in the Ukraine play.

          Not sure why the certainty a new class system so similar to the old will immediately spring up in a post-collapse scenario. The kind of collapse you are outlining means localization and anarchy before long to me, in which economies, hierarchies, and opportunities for entrepreneur-style profiteering are all as limited as the acreages of the tiny regional arenas that they are suddenly confined to.

          • mitchellc September 20, 2023 at 11:09 pm #

            We only need look at Russia in the 90s to get a sense of where we are headed.

            The rise of mafia gangsters and other organized criminal activities that dominated (what was left of) the economy consolidated around religious and ethnicity groupings.

            This is as true today in the inner cities as it was 100 years ago when the exact same organizational dynamics occurred during previous periods of massive immigration.

            So, rather than entertain ourselves with happy thoughts of saviours and redemption, the more pragmatic approach is to accept reality and move on.

            That means taking a realistic approach towards assessing how this may play out ie secession, and what type of fall out we can expect.

            We know without the $USD there will no longer be any kind of safety net, whether social security, welfare, etc.

            Who is most impacted by that, and which groups will naturally coalesce along natural fault lines for both defensive purposes and territory/economic carve outside?

            Hence, the new aristocracy after the old héroes and authorities are entirely discredited.

          • gustafson.robert.22 September 20, 2023 at 11:34 pm #

            It won’t be anything like the ’90’s in Russia really, when there was a backdrop of global economic growth and health and continuity for opportunists there to play off of. A real global collapse will be a hell of a lot rougher, and final outcomes a hell of a lot stranger.

          This crucial factor, by which the dollar reserve system could effortlessly fund both MIC weapons development and procurement, . . . ”

          These two statements don’t seem to compute. I think the point of the first one is that the energy required to run thd kind of system envisioned is simply not there.

          The second statement seems to be that money, disconnected from availability of energy, if in adequate supply, is the fundamental basis for the Great Reset.

            Giant institutional structures like banks and the Fed will go the way of Dinocars. The Die-Centennial itself will be the great re-set.

            About ten billion people on the globe by 2050. Twenty plus years further out, if not sooner, comes the great reckoning with the grim reaper.

    So, when did language develop and among whom did the neural wiring enhancements first take place to allow such things as recursive thought and complex communication? It’s said that language development went along with tool and implement development, but it would seem to me that language development would proceed much more slowly, especially to the sophisticated stage we are at today.

    There is a wide range of conjecture as to when ‘language’ first arose, spanning at least hundreds of thousands of years.

    But then, it’s said that Adam and Eve spoke Adamic according to Jewish tradition. Religion. Go figure.

    • Rooftop Observer September 20, 2023 at 8:20 pm #

      That’s an interesting question, tucsonspur. The question of how we came to develop such mental complexity has been explored for decades and the theory I find highly plausible is that known as “The Stoned Ape”.

      “The theory claims that the transition from Homo erectus to Homo sapiens and the cognitive revolution was caused by the addition of psilocybin mushrooms, specifically the mushroom Psilocybe cubensis, into the human diet around 100,000 years ago. Using evidence largely based on studies from Roland L. Fischer et al.

      Humans are always ready to experiment and mid-alteration and ‘perception enhancement’ are usually the objective.

          Really far out and interesting. I wonder though about amounts consumed, prevalence, and the actual bio-chemical effects in the brain. Wouldn’t a stoned ape be easy prey, for example, rather than having heightened neural acuity eventually leading to a pronounced development of communication skills?

          It’s cool, but I’m not going apeshit over the theory.

          Anyway, maybe being descendants of psychedelically altered apes could explain our current condition.

      By all accounts the ‘Spring Offensive’ has failed miserably, with the Ukrainian army incurring hundreds of thousands of casualties with very little gain to show for the sacrifice. This $24 billion won’t effect the outcome of the war one little bit; it’s just money down a rathole.

The Federal Reserve can pull that out of their ass before noon on a good day. $ 24B also equals 428 tons of gold at today’s price. Personally I’d take the gold.

      I haven’t read that article yet Islander, but I’ll look it up this morning. Israel, to its credit, has pretty much avoided any involvement in this Ukraine/Russia conflict, even tho tremendous pressure has been brought down on the Israeli Govt to provide Ukraine with material support.

      Israel has enough problems of it’s own; why would it involve itself with Ukraine & Russia?

      • Islander September 21, 2023 at 11:40 am #

        Check out Max Blumlenthal’s presentation on “Big Israel.”

      • DaveO907 September 21, 2023 at 11:40 am #

        Ukraine was home to the Pale of Settlement to which Jews were banished by one of the Russian Czars. Many if not most of the emigres to Israel in the 1980s especially came from the USSR via the Ukraine. It remains hot-button and close to many Israelis, in particular the Jewish Mafia which was/is(?) centered there. And interested and connected descendants elsewhere such as Ms Nuland and Mr Blinken via his stepfather (Robert Maxwell’s lawyer, obtw,) Samuel Pisar.

        You can bet there is much going on outside of “official” channels for such a prize. Even more so than than Azerbaijan and Armenia where much is being brought to bear in the interests of Israel and those formatting and effecting US foreign policy today. Very, very involved is Israel, ‘committed’ being the more appropriate to the situation.

        • Islander September 21, 2023 at 12:13 pm #

          Yes, and in addition, as Blumenthal points out–it is more or less the point of his presentation—Israel is the template for what the Neocons have in mind for the Ukraine.

          Blumenthal pretty skillfully skirts the (let’s say) “Jewish Question” aspect of his topic.

          There were, actually, some good reasons for confining the Jews to the Pale of Settlement. Lots of gray areas in this history, but the victimization narrative is high-contrast only! The Neocons definitely want the Ukraine “back”—ie.e, payback—and they are using the USA to get it. Oh, and also wreck Russia.

          The Pale was a large area, and not all Jews were confined to it: “The Pale of Settlement included all of modern-day Belarus and Moldova, much of Lithuania, Ukraine and east-central Poland, and relatively small parts of Latvia and what is now the western Russian Federation. It extended from the eastern pale, or demarcation line inside the country, westwards to the Imperial Russian border with the Kingdom of Prussia (later the German Empire) and Austria-Hungary. Furthermore, it comprised about 20% of the territory of European Russia and largely corresponded to historical lands of the former Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, Cossack Hetmanate, the Ottoman Empire (with Yedisan), Crimean Khanate, and eastern Principality of Moldavia (Bessarabia). “

        • BackRowHeckler September 21, 2023 at 1:06 pm #

          Azerbaijan & Armenia appear to be at war again; I was surprised to learn that Israel is indeed a player in that conflict, supplying the Azerbaijanis with sophisticated drones capable of knocking out Russian made armor with ease, and other advanced weaponry. Concurrently, Turkey is a big backer of Armenia. It appears religion doesn’t count for much in this conflict and its strategic considerations that matter most.

            Did you believe they would take the Christian side? Why? They fought with the Muslims to conquer Spain long ago. They provided massive funding and even troops. The Muslim Beserkers would go on to the next town or city, leaving a Jewish garrison to hold and administer what was already conquered.

            The Price of Freedom is our illusions – all of them.

            Is Turkey going to help Armenia?

          • DaveO907 September 21, 2023 at 2:12 pm #

            Yes indeed, religion is often enough relegated – utilized as a primary rallying force in these inter-ethnic genocidal squabbles (I hesitate to use squabbles for such terrible events, but much of it is so localized and intertribal in nature and origin.)
            That said, it’s where it is leading, where its forces are being directed toward policies aimed at larger nations, Iran and Russia in this case.

It was a political decision to limit the influence of the new Soviet Armenian republic with the appointment of Anastas Mikoyan to the Politburo as a tradeoff.

            As a result, Nakhichevan was ethnically cleansed and most, if not all of its cultural history in the form of its churches, monuments, khatchkars were destroyed, after the Armenian population was displaced and deported. It should also be noted that Karabagh held a referendum to declare its independence during the breakup of the Soviet Union, and then was subjected to an Azeri massacre of Armenians in Sumgait, before gaining temporary independence in fact after its first war in 1994. However, it made the mistake of not holding a followup referendum to join with Armenia, just as Crimea did with the Russian Federation in 2014- and Putin himself noted it after the 2020 war. Doing so, would have provided CSTO treaty protection that was not available, because independent Karabagh was not a CSTO member.

            I agree that Pashinian, who was elected in a “Color Revolution” – has been a disaster- that the Armenian diaspora in the US and France are aligned with the West and antagonistic to Russia- and that Armenia’s reliance on its diaspora for its political decisions has been foolish, reckless and even suicidal, since it is only Russia that can protect Armenia and Armenia’s actual ties to Russia are real and deep. At the same time, the diaspora has provided substantial humanitarian, technical and educational assistance to Armenians in Armenia over many years, so it cannot be discounted.

            In contrast, it must be noted that the Aliyev family and Azeri leadership have announced publicly on numerous occasions that they intend not only the destruction of the Armenian population in Karabagh, but also the territorial disembowelment of Armenia itself, and that Azerbaijan, until the Russians finally intervened recently, had cut off the Lachin corridor and prevented the Red Cross from delivering basic necessities in an effort to starve the population. They have also been destroying churches and cultural monuments, kidnapping civilians, and refusing to exchange prisoners in violation of the ceasefire truce agreement. These are facts that can be substantiated – and not mere allegations.

            Moreover, if one thinks the US or Britain or the EU have not been playing a two-edged game or that Israel, the West’s most important proxy, have not been quietly assisting Azerbaijan in building up its military over decades, or did not, with Turkey, assist Azerbaijan in its 2020 war against Armenia, one would be sorely deceived.

            I note that the justifications for, and legitimacy the Donbass oblasts declaration of their independence and accession with the Russian Federation, were: (1) the ethnic cleansing and war against Ukraine’s ethnic Russians conducted by Ukraine’s unconstitutional and extremist neo-nazi Banderist government, and (2) the self-determination referenda of the the populations of those oblasts. This is no different than the circumstances to which the Armenians of Karabagh have been subjected- or that denying that ethnic cleansing has occurred in the face of facts and actions to the contrary, would be as wrong to allege with Karabagh, as it has been by the West with the Donbass.

            I support Russia’a efforts since IMHO, I believe it is only with sophisticated Russian diplomacy and Putin’s statesmanship backed up by the Russian military- something the West sorely lacks- that this hugely difficult problem which has been informed by centuries of conflict, including the Armenian genocide of 1915 (and 5 years later a second one in the Caucasus led by Envir Pasha) can ever be resolved and peace and prosperity brought to the region. I think this is Russia’s goal and that it is only with the active mediation of Russia that it can be realized.

            Andrey, this is my opinion only, and I am respectfully submitting it to you. But if you are interested, I can refer you to some reliable historical writings.”

            Russia can’t help Armenia, even though it has peace-keeping troops in Nagorno-Karabakh, because the US puppet prime minister of Armenia has already said that Nagorno-Karabakh is part of Azerbaijan, thus throwing the Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh to the wolves.

            Azerbaijan has already invaded and overtaken the Karabakh troops, but has not attacked the Russians yet. But obviously, Russia can’t fight on the side of Armenia, if Armenian prime minister Pashinyan has already ceded it.

            Turkey is actually on the side of Azerbaijan.
            Iran is on the side of Armenia, although Azerbaijan had historically been part of Iran, until the USSR was formed, and Azerbaijan was created. Rather like how Ukraine was created after the USSR was formed.

            Nagorno-Karabakh was historically Armenia.

            The whole thing is a big mess and I see the hands of Victoria Nuland/Anthony Blinken involved.
            Their Ukrainian project isn’t working out for them, so they have moved on to push a new jihadist crusade in Central Asia.

            Don’t forget the attempted Color Revolution in Kyrgyzstan in 2020, and Kazakhstan in January, 2022.

            People who think that Russia winning in Ukraine will stop the neocons from their Project Destroy Russia, are wrong.

            They will never stop.

            From a comment on that article:
            ”22 May 2023
            While addressing the Armenian parliament this week, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan reiterated that he is ready to recognize Artsakh as part of Azerbaijan, an announcement that has sparked outrage across Armenia, Artsakh and the Diaspora.

            ://armenianweekly.com/2023/05/24/pashinyan-ready-to-recognize-artsakh-as-part-of-azerbaijan/

            In one stroke, he undermined both Armenia’s negotiating position and Russian attempts at mediation

            Then there was Pashinyan’s masterstroke: the Armenian American joint military exercises, which ended yesterday, 20th September. Escobar doesn’t mention this, but it is vitally important to the present crisis.

            .aljazeera.com/news/2023/9/20/us-completes-joint-military-exercise-in-armenia

            This almost certainly precipitated the Azeri attack – get it over with before there is any remote possibility of Armenia joining NATO.

            There is no way that Pashinyan can spin this to blame the Russians.”

            No way he can blame this on the Russians? Yes, he can, and he has the Mighty Wurlitzer of propaganda on his side.

            Apparently, some Armenians ARE blaming this on Russia.
            Apparently, Armenians aren’t any smarter than Americans.

          • Paula D September 21, 2023 at 6:22 pm #

            Apparently, the Azerbaijanis did kill Russians, but the president of Azerbaijan has apologized to Putin, said that they will be prosecuted, and offered to pay the families for their loss.

            So it was not approved for them to murder Russians.

    I have read here on CFN that the boxes that contain those common light blue face masks have words on them that say (and I’m paraphrasing) that the masks are ineffective for blocking airborne viruses.

    I would like to know the precise quote because I want to confront some people I see wearing those masks lately. Their numbers seem to be growing.

        Thanks for this quote TPTB. I’m a little disappointed though. The wording is wishy-washy. It neither claims the masks are effective nor ineffective.

        I was hoping there would be a statement like “this product will not stop a virus from passing through it any more than a chain link fence will stop a fly from passing through.”

    I am watching the CNBC business show. There is a guy named Alex Karp who is the CEO of Palantir. A piece of footage shows him sitting next to Musk at a Senate meeting concerning AI.

    This Karp guy has one of the most awful looking heads of hair I have ever seen. If I were him I would not allow myself to be seen in public looking like that.

    For downright awfulness I would equate his hair to Fetterman’s casual attire in Senate chambers. It raises the question: Does Alex Karp own a mirror? If so, has he ever looked into it?

Not so fast, my pretties, not so fast…

    Breaking News!

    The following is a Big Picture update.

    The basic model for the format for life consists of 3 elements: A family of 4, a cart, and a finish line.

    The existing format for life entails a race to the finish line, where the population has been conditioned to believe that the ultimate goal will be to have your slave master harness-up your team of slaves to pull your cart, with you, your family and friends that you can tolerate, and the lifetime of shit that you all have accumulated, across the finish line.

    The 2030 format for life is “you will own nothing and be happy”, and you will rent what ever you need. Basically, everyone will have to go along and get along and help pull each others cart to the finish line.

    The first step in the transition is to destroy the existing format for life. “Joe Biden” has basically set things up for failure, and the migration will finish the job by bankrupting the system (inflation as a result of currency devaluation).

    The next step will be to get the population to embrace the new format for life. One faction has the mentality of “it will never work, it will never work, it will never work, …”, while the other envisions unicorns for eternity.

    My prediction for the US is that this next phase will look like a destruction derby; whereas for the citizens of third world countries, they don’t own anything, so they have nothing to lose, and a UBI with a “pigeon hole” in a “15 minute city” will look like they hit the lottery jackpot.

    I got mine, I hope you get yours, and I truly wish you all the best of luck.

    • SoftStarLight September 21, 2023 at 12:35 pm #

      To me the most astonishing element of all of this is the utter and near total lack of imagination in terms of “life format”. Both formats you present are anti-human and extremely dismal. It also may be evidence that humanity itself is devolving, not evolving. “Joe Biden” is a perfect icon of devolution and degeneration.

      • TPTB-USA September 21, 2023 at 1:25 pm #

        The evolution of the existing format is just the natural progression of the flawed game as disparity goes to the extreme.

        I don’t think that a perfect format exists.

    Are there any lawyers out there?

    The Columbia Journalism Review in its “media” post today refers to the First Amendment as a “law.”

    Sounds like they think this is a “law” that can be overturned or neutralized by some other “law” or a SCOTUS ruling.

    E.g.,
    “. . . Many observers believe that the Supreme Court will decide to hear the Biden administration’s appeal of the Fifth Circuit’s order. But even if it doesn’t, we might get another chance to see how (or whether) the Court believes *** laws like the First Amendment **** apply to the platforms. By the end of this month, the Court is expected to say whether it will hear two conflicting cases on the topic. The first revolves around the Texas social-media law that blocks the platforms from removing certain types of content; the Fifth Circuit upheld that law, ruling that the First Amendment doesn’t apply to content-moderation decisions. The second revolves around a similar Florida law—which the Eleventh Circuitt Court of Appeals struck down on the grounds that the First Amendment does protect such activity.. . . ”

    I see a big difference between a “law” and a *right* guaranteed by the Constitution.

    To me the question is similar to that of corporate personhood. Are social media platforms “persons” and do they enjoy the same rights as actual citizens?

      Well, the Constitution doesn’t mean anything if no one is willing to enforce it or to abide by it.

      The law on the other hand has always been and will always be a weapon.

      The Constitution is meaningless in today’s world. The federal government doesn’t even do the only thing that it was actually chartered to do which is to protect the country via the military. We have no borders so we have no Constitution.

      The law however is simply what the powerful use to stay in power and that is why they see it as completely separate from any concerns about the Constitution.

        “Well, the Constitution doesn’t mean anything if no one is willing to enforce it or to abide by it.”

        That is the point of sending this case to the SC.

        Rather, it is the point of the original case, which the govt. lost. It is the govt that is appealing to the SC.

        I think Gus is smart and has interesting ideas. But he does question things a lot and I do remember he had mentioned something about not seeing where the big die off from the vaccines occurred. Some people of course were saying like billions of people would die from the vaccine. I dunno. I think it could still happen. But the data now indicates that a dieoff is occurring but maybe not at the scale some believed would occur. I have heard some people saying that the vaccines will kill a lot more people over the years. Also some are saying that if certain signals are turned on the vaccine will kill people after activation. So I wanted to provide information for consideration.

Actually I wish human hair could be like every possible color.

    • gustafson.robert.22 September 21, 2023 at 3:15 pm #

      Interesting. 1/800 deaths among vaccinated people, with a strong skew towards the elderly.

      In terms of population numbers, it cancels out about 5% of the population growth during the last two years. We are adding about 90 million people to our planet per year now. These numbers mean the vaccine killed something like 7.5 mil in two years (1/800 of 75% of 8B people globally).

      The fact that most were elderly does lessen this 5% effect on population growth a bit because they are not reproducing, and it means the vaccine is less deadly for younger people.

      Who knows what will happen in coming years, or how many more shots people will take and what will be in them.

        Interesting. So basically do you feel that this information supports your hypothesis that the vaccine is at best a very poor product if it was truly intended to be a kill shot?

      • Slugoon September 21, 2023 at 5:19 pm #

        Gus is right, there is no mass die-off due to ‘the vaccine.’ All-cause mortality is still above average here but not remotely to the point that anybody would notice. If the vax was a bio-weapon it was a pretty ineffective one.

        • OG September 21, 2023 at 6:52 pm #

          Or it awaits its activation.

  94. OG September 21, 2023 at 1:00 pm #

    Gus:

    According to Ann Williams, 10 thousand people were trying to get out of Lahaina all at once (already a recipe for a traffic jam)

    And that’s because the recipe included the world’s most extensive alarms never being sounded during all those hours that firefighters were losing the battle just outside of town.

    One of our loveable, knuckle-headed tres incompetent bumbling officials claimed that the locals were “trained” to think that an alarm meant “Tsunami!” and to run for high ground (i.e. away from the ocean) so they decided to not sound the world’s most extensive alarm system during America’s biggest fire in over a century because they feared that the locals would run into the fire! I sh!t you not. That happened.

    10,000 people with no way out yet Ann Williams made it out because she defied our loveable knuckleheads who were “just following orders.”

    How many dead at Lahaina, do you think now, One Solo? Still the official 115 after that traffic jam that 10,000 could not and did not escape from? That dog don’t hunt.

    The best exits, to the highway behind town, were blocked because “multiple power lines were already down on the highway,” making the traffic in town really awful near her house.

    No. The “best” exit was the one that Ann Williams escaped with just before Vegas Turkey-Shoot “Incident Commander” (and known FBI graduate) John Pelletier’s troops barricaded everyone else from after Ms Williams to their incinerated death. That was the “best” but forbidden exit from the structured kill zone.

    Ms Williams clearly states, “They all could’ve gotten out. They all could’ve gotten out.” And “We were obviously trapped.”

    Your ability to ignore the facts to cling to your psychological blanky that DC would never mass murder us is a sight to behold, Gus. Pure mutton.

    The highway situation was forcing everyone down to Front Street, she says.

    She also says the VTS John Pelletier’s troops had setup roadblocks at that far end of town thus funnelling all those cars into the barricaded kill zone.

    Those are the facts.

    Then she says the one open way out, north, was clear for a while.

    “[F]or a while”?! For? A? While?

    Wow! Your closed-minded corruption is showing yet again. You are some piece of work, Gus.

    No, One Solo. Ms Williams testifies that the north route that she used to escape with her family was clear of any downed power lines right through to her visiting it again the next morning! The north road that she escaped on just before VTS Pelletier’s troops closed that final option out of town down is the smoking gun of our investigation of their well-planned and executed black op.

    Then, further down that way, there was a backup where the cop seemed to be stopping people for no reason, the only strange element in the whole situation.

    How was your date with … Morgan Fairchild?

    Certainly the reason this one cop was stopping people on a clear section of road should be investigated, but the obvious likely reason is some order had gone out to shut the whole highway down and any other road with downed powerlines, and this cop was manning his (seemingly clear) station to close the wrecked highway.

    “Yeah … that’s it. We’re all bumbling idiots that barricaded all those rightful land-owners to their incinerations. That’s the ticket!”

    But of course, the downed powerlines were probably a black op……..

    With that statement alone, you prove that you do not even know what a black op is. Lahaina 8/8 is all one carefully planned and executed black op, Gus. Each tiny aspect is not a separate operation. In a black op, everything is meticulously planned and executed.

    Of course the hot power lines fell into the intentionally unkempt dry brush exactly where they wanted them to, Gus. D’uh! They have you so convinced that they’re bumbling idiots running around with Keystone Kops incompetence that you do not see that, really, they are actually much more like Oliver Stone’s 1991 film: JFK.

    Here’s what we know so far:
    HAARP = Wind
    Wind + Sabotage = Downed hot power lines in intentionally unkempt dry brush = Brush fires
    Brush Fires + HAARP Wind = Wild fire
    Barricade approximately 10,000 people in the kill zone
    Except collect 2,000 rightful land heirs, put them on school buses and permit those buses with safe passage out of the kill zone – the only vehicles waved through by VTS Pelletier
    DEW the rest until they are ash
    Immediately construct a 12’ 5+ mile blackout/blind fence
    Guard the outside of this fence (in case any dust gets any bright ideas)
    Allow no drones
    Allow no non-MSM journalists (and their pesky questions seeking truth)
    Successful land grab some of the most valuable property on earth
    + 2,000 children make a sh!t-load of adren0chr0me
    Bob’s your uncle

    ***
    Again, Gus: GA tells us that you have claimed, here on CFN, that you remain a pure-blood to this very day. But nobody has ever heard of a 5 (let alone a 1!) that could smell a rat while the world went loopy in 2020-21. I missed this claim that GA tells us that you have made.

    Is this true, Gus? You are a 1 but never ever rolled-up your sleeve and took a COVID shot? Is that what you bring to us here at CFN? [That and being caught red-handed running cover for TPTB, of course.]

    Are you really a pure-blood, Gus, or are you jam-packed full of butt nuggets?

        The truth is more important than a liar’s feelings, SSL. One Solo needs to face the truth. We all do.

        • OG September 21, 2023 at 5:19 pm #

          Pride is such an ugly sin, SSL. Gus need only admit that he is jabbed and that Lahaina does look fishy. But he cannot. His pride will not allow him to. So, instead, “I’m taking my ball and going home!”

          • SoftStarLight September 21, 2023 at 5:48 pm #

            Hmm, well I never understood the he was jabbed based on his discussions here but will not conjecture without him being in the room so to speak. I also was under the impression that he felt Lahaina was sus but that it appeared that the available evidence tended toward a more natural cause. Again I am not sure but just saying that maybe we are seeing things a little too black and white and everything.

          • GreenAlba September 21, 2023 at 8:32 pm #

            SSL, OG has no evidence whatsover that Gus is jabbed and neither does anyone else.

            GA, given all that has transpired, Gus’ refusal to simply say, “I never got a COVID jab” is plenty of evidence.

            1s got jabbed in 2021. 100% of them. If you breed a golden retriever with a golden retriever, the resulting puppies will be golden retrievers. Every time.

            One Solo was twice caught red-handed lying to us while we are investigating mass murder! Let’s get our priorities straight.

            What Gus is refusing to do is to let you put him on a chair under a bare lightbulb, as if you had the right to be his inquisitor.

            His medical history is none of your business.

            Do you insult your own chlldren for being ‘1’s? Even their medical history is their own business, unless they choose to discuss it with you.

        You seem to have enjoyed feeding the troll.

        Your own comportment—such as joining in on off-the-wall and extremely rude speculations regarding another person’s jab status—has really not been commendable.

        • OG September 21, 2023 at 8:17 pm #

          GA told us that Gus claimed here on CFN to be a pure-blood, Islander. That takes “speculations” off the table.

          He bluffed. Then I called his bluff. Then he called me an “infant” and took his ball and went home.

          • GreenAlba September 21, 2023 at 8:29 pm #

            There are no pure-bloods, OG, according to the work of Dr Ana Mihalcea (you can find her on Substack). She does a whole lot of live-blood analysis and she no long finds anyone without graphene nano-particles (hydrogel) in their blood, whether ‘vaccinated’ or not. It’s everywhere. It’s in dental anaesthetic, in the rain after spraying – she’s even found it in the blood from supermarket meat.

            I told you Gus said he wasn’t ‘vaccinated’ purely because you were goading him to get ‘vaccinated’ again, when that made no sense. Otherwise, I have no interest in Gus’ ‘vaccination’ status. I do wish you would stop going on about it. Someone else’s ‘vaccination’ status is none of anyone’s business, OG.

          • OG September 21, 2023 at 9:53 pm #

            You are technically correct but pure-blood is a term used for people who never took a COVID shot regardless of Dr Ana Mihalcea’s fine research.

            ***
            That is not true, GA. I demonstrate that there is a very strong correlation between one’s Gullibility Litmus Test and what they decided when the world went loopy in 2021.

            1s got jabbed up the wazoo. 100% of them. Easy demographic of all (except for 0s, of course).

            ***
            Gus was caught red-handed lying in his efforts to run cover for TPTB in a mass-murder investigation, GA! Then he gets caught red-handed lying about his vaxx status. He’s lying and he’s calling me “crazy” everyday.

            ak_mofo, MQ and now Gus. If you grab the bull by the horns, you had best be ready to ride.

          • GreenAlba September 22, 2023 at 7:19 am #

            “You are technically correct but pure-blood is a term used for people who never took a COVID shot regardless of Dr Ana Mihalcea’s fine research.”

            Correction – ‘pure-blood’ is a term used by a tiny minority of those people who never took a COVID shot. It is now meaningless.

            There are no pure-bloods, which is unfortunate, but I’m sure you knew covid wasn’t going to be their only ruse.

            If you’d read Dr Mihalcea’s work, you’d know there are remedies.

            “Gus was caught red-handed lying in his efforts to run cover for TPTB in a mass-murder investigation, GA!”

            1. Your wishful thinking is not evidence.
            2. Gus was exercising his right to express his opinion.
            2, This is not a court of law; it is a discussion forum.
            3. I’m not saying any more about your egregious behaviour, because it only makes you double down.

        • SoftStarLight September 22, 2023 at 2:44 am #

          Oh, well you must have misread the situation because I did not engage in any speculation at all. But if someone discusses their status openly then it seems like it could be something that potentially becomes a topic of conversation. For example, OG has stated he has not received the jab. So I feel comfortable stating that OG’s jab status is not jabbed because he felt comfortable stating that he was not jabbed. I thought I recalled that Gus stated he was not jabbed. But that was basically it. Recollection is completely different than speculation.

    • GreenAlba September 21, 2023 at 8:38 pm #

      “I missed this claim that GA tells us that you have made.”

      Gus didn’t ‘make a claim’ – he mentioned it in passing. You, on the other hand, have made a claim, so you are the one who needs to come up with some evidence to back it up – or apologise to Gus. Your wishful thinking is not evidence.

      Please desist. This has gone far enough.

      • OG September 21, 2023 at 9:41 pm #

        I don’t understand, GA. What is the difference between making a claim and mentioning something in passing?

        And what claim have I made that I need to prove?

        And how have I used wishful thinking as evidence?

        The US government looks guilty as sin vis-a-vis DEWing their own people last month! No, I will not desist.

        • GreenAlba September 22, 2023 at 7:24 am #

          Don’t deflect. I never said anything about the US government’s actions in Maui. As you know, I accepted the strong possibility, while taking the view that there is no proof that is not circumstantial.

          The claim you made is that Gus is jabbed. You didn’t say he was probably jabbed or that circumstantial ‘evidence’, suggests he is jabbed. You said that he was jabbed.

          Until you have evidence of that (either Gus’ assertion that he was jabbed, or a vaxx certificate) you have made an assertion backed by no evidence.

  95. Q. Shtik September 21, 2023 at 1:16 pm #

    I periodically go to a physical therapy center due to an issue with my knees. While there I often see a certain old woman who always wears one of those common light blue face masks and she is diligent in making sure it is properly deployed over both nose and mouth.

    Seeing her masked bugs me and I have wanted to speak to her but I wanted to get my facts straight first. With the help of TPTB-USA above, I have done so and I wrote up a document and printed it out in very large font to give to this woman. It reads as follows:

    The common light blue face mask being worn by many due to the Covid 19 pandemic contains the following statement on the box that it comes in:

    “J. J. Keller makes no claims, either expressed or implied, that this product prevents infection or the transmission of diseases or viruses”

    ^This^ is believed by certain Covid 19 pundits to mean “this product will not stop a virus from passing through it any more than a chain link fence will stop a fly from passing through it.”

    The mask CAN protect others from flying spittle but it is of no use to the wearer. In fact it is actually harmful for various reasons concerning respiration.

    Mask wearers are therefore deemed to be “virtue-signaling.” The mask is a statement that “I am wearing this mask to protect my fellow man, not myself.”

    What do y’all think? Is this a good idea or should I just mind my own effing business?

      There was one woman at church who wore a mask long after everyone else had abandoned them. (Few people at that church were in favor of them to begin with. They even had a “mask burning,” after the mandate was lifted.)

      I thought she was a nut-job. I was later informed that she had an elderly relative at home who was very ill. She believed she was protecting him.

      Most of the people around here who wore masks or self-quarantined were elderly people who believed they were protecting a spouse who was quite ill or had one foot in the grave.

      If she thinks there is the slightest chance that masking will protect someone else, nothing you can say will have any effect.

      I have some friends and relatives who fell for the covid hoax, hook, line, and sinker. There is no use in talking to them about it, and I would never initiate such a conversation. If they brought the subject up, I would tell them what I thought. But they already know what I think, so they don’t bring it up.

    OG, Boot stomping the face. Months ago you were under pressure from lawyers and were about to go to court, as I recall. What happened? Get any of your money back?
    – EF

    You are correct, EF. You have a good memory. I have indeed been fighting incredible corruption in Ontario Family Law since November 13, 2015.

    “When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.”
    – Frederic Bastiat

    We finally went to trial in June 2023 but, after two days, the Spring Sittings ended before our trial did. We will, therefore, finish our trial with the Fall Sittings. Specifically, our trial on November 27, 2023.

    The coming verdict, however, is not in any doubt. I had fought for justice for years with delusions that I would attain it once I finally got to trial. I was wrong.. The Honourable [sic] judge threw out all of my Issues, my Witnesses and her Arrears. No discussion. No reason. He just tossed them all like I was a Grade 3 boy “who really did it this time!”

    My children and I are out over $1,400,000 due to all manner of crime supporting this “Legalized extortion.” As a result, after attaining a Net Worth of over $2.5mm by age 50, I am now 58, earned a financially-secure existence but face future destitution. Sad but true.

    What bothers me even more than my fate is that the resources that I had planned on deploying to give my son and my daughter a leg-up in early adulthood went to finance lawyers’ Porsches and Escalades and Mediterranean cruises.

    I know because both Jarek and JHK admitted it.

    The one JHK admitted to me personally was done for JHK’s personal reasons.
