Historians of the future, boiling acorns over their campfires, will wonder that amidst all the global strife of the 2020s, Americans barely noticed that the US government went to war on its own citizens. Was there something in the water — or, more specifically, in the Pepsi Cola? Or did those “vaccines,” which were so popular as an emblem of their obedience to The Science, turn their brains into something like an Oreo McFlurry? However it happened, said citizens marched themselves ardently into the VAERS database to receive gold stars on their vaxx passports thinking: jabs will make us free!

Speaking of The Science, the nation learned this week, via a strangely staged colloquy between Senator Marco Rubio and Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, that contra to official denials days before, our government was indeed running quite a few — I believe the actual number was 29 — science projects in the foreign land called Ukraine, discovered in the course of Russian military operations there. Loose talk about “bioweapons labs” was efficiently quashed by Ms. Nuland, who styled the work as an inventory of “biological research materials.” These included such science-y playthings as ebola, bubonic plague, anthrax, and sundry viral curiosities of nature. It looked like she was trying to get ahead of the story, as they say in the agit-prop industry.

Speaking of Russia and agit-prop, that’s all we hear on the air-waves, the cable channels, and the webstreams. “Russia, Russia, Russia.” And “Putin, Putin, Putin.” American news reporters must be living in Vladimir Putin’s head because they are so adept at reading his thoughts. Putin thinks this, Putin thinks that, they declare so brashly. They are all so sure of Mr. Putin’s every thought that Mr. Putin must have to check-in with American news media to find out exactly what he’s thinking. Lately, according to CNN, The New York Times, and the rest of the gang, Mr. Putin — or maybe it’s The Putin, as in The Science — is thinking of gobbling up all the other quaint little countries at Russia’s border like so many tater tots.

For your consideration: is it possible that Russian intel knew a little something about those Ukraine labs before February 24, 2022, and became concerned that another concocted freak-of-nature pestilence might get loose there on the Eurasian frontier? And you must wonder: America saw Russian troops mustering along Ukraine’s border for many weeks before their dastardly operations got underway, and yet nobody in those bio-labs thought to maybe stuff their bio-playthings in the incinerator? Weird, little bit. But, notice, of-a-piece with the sloppy-ass way that the US has handled the entire Covid-19 fiasco: a Chinese fire-drill inside a clusterfuck garnished with the rankest dishonesty from start to finish.

And to what purpose, after all? The cartoon character Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum crowed repeatedly about what a fine opportunity Covid-19 was to smash the operating system of Western Civ in order to Build Back Better: a new system in which the zombified masses would have nothing and be happy — at least for the weeks and months they remained in the earthly plane of existence before the “vaccines” they were induced to take infarcted their livers and lights, finally carrying them off to sprout wings and receive their issued harps and halos in cloud-land. And then Herr Schwab and his tiny band of ubermenschen would be free to enjoy their transhuman nirvana free of the swine-like multitudes previously cluttering up the planet.

Yes, life in the early twenty-first century looks more and more like a bad horror movie. And now the critics are moving in, savaging the production. “A massive murderous fraud,” many are saying of the Covid-19 extravaganza, and the audience, once back out in the blinding, clarifying daylight, are saying to themselves, Yeah, kinda seems like it was. Fraud vitiates liability protection. It is a well-known principle among the artisans of law. Moderna stock is down 70 percent and Pfizer more than 20. Wall Street has sniffed out a motherlode of rot, according to Mr. Edward Dowd, BlackRock investment advisor emeritus, who is saying it loudly over the alt-streams, making a whole lot of public health officials and doctors nervous as roaches when the lights flash on. Mom impersonator Rochelle Walensky, chief of the CDC, has concealed much dire information about the number of “vaccine” injuries and fatalities of the past year, while still importuning everybody to vaxx-up and boost-up, knowing they might be harmed by it. Does she just skate on that? And then, of course, there is Dr. Fauci, missing in action lately. (Anybody look for him down in Paraguay?) The clock is ticking on when the millions of lawsuits might commence along with prosecutions for crimes against humanity.

Cue “Joe Biden,” then, to crash the global economy and give folks other things to think about — like, how am I going to keep driving sixty miles each way to work with gasoline at $8 a gallon? How, indeed, is anything like an advanced economy going to stagger forward now that nobody in the world will sell each other anything? Well, it probably just won’t. All that’s left is the sound of money being shot out of cannons, and nobody seems to notice that it gets shredded in the process. America has gazed into the abyss and apparently decided to sign a lease and move in.

    Mr. Kunstlers’ sage writings continue to presage that which is here, that which is coming, and the most effective path forward.

      Hello from Central Europe CFers,

      I suspect ya’ll may be ready to read about the “most effective path forward.”

      But first a summation of where we are before we can get undrr way:

      http://annavonreitz.com/lawfulllegalunfortunate.pdf

      Carry-on til you are carrion!

      • Beryl of Oyl March 11, 2022 at 11:59 am #

        Good article.

        • JTinMD March 12, 2022 at 7:03 am #

          I read the article on your recommendation, Beryl, and I agree. Good article. Then I explored her site and read some more. Von Reitz makes many interesting points, but the heavy seasoning with religious principles turned me off, as it nearly always does. Many of us here swim easily with that current, even if unreligious ourselves. And if that current helps get us to our aspirations, well, it feels justified. But, is it really?

          • Paul Ford O'Neil March 12, 2022 at 7:23 am #

            JTinMD,

            Yes, I agree that heavy religious overtones are off-putting.

            SO, I simply embrace the Gospa perspective which includes everybody:

            “Members of all religions are equal before God.”

            Anna is a Lutheran of the Roman Catholic Hapsburg Clan. I am a Roman Catholic of the Royal O’Neil Clan. YET, most of our world perspectives intersect precisely.

            May I encourage you and all CFers to study Anna’s research on the ‘way forward – back to a true constitutional republic, not just for Americans, but the world.

          After peaking at a little over two dollars, the average price of gas in southern Ontario went down to $1.80 a liter. if there are 3.785 litres in a standard American gallon, that works out to close to six bucks a gallon. And southern Ontario, like most of North America, is highly car dependent, even in the Greater Toronto Area, where all levels of government are investing billions in new subway lines and light rail. Last time I checked it was $3.50, a bargain and one that Canadians would normally take advantage of except the Great Dictator/Oaf Justin Trudeau won’t let us cross the border without taking a covid test before we get back. This has been a disaster for the Windsor/Essex region which now boasts Canada’s highest unemployment rate.

        Biden-NATO’s economic moves serve to solidify the Russian nationalistic fervor and support of Putin.

        Biden’s stupid campaign rhetoric threatening hydrocarbon producers and lenders with criminal prosecution results in little effort to explore and drill.

        Fringe commoners spring into revolt over oppressive inflation.

        The Shakespearean tragic-comedy-horror dystopian Pavlovian reality show is best viewed, while taking a break from gathering freshly-laid chicken eggs and gathering greenhouse vegetables.

    Last week I was worried about Putin launching nukes. This week, I’m worried that it will be us. It’s clear at this point that there’s nothing the home team won’t’ do, even if it means vaporizing the planet.

      I continue to look for a US false flag nuke event right here at home to kick off the festivities. Wonder which red state metroplex will win the lottery? My money’s on Colorado Springs/Denver area (Cheyenne Mountain Complex), Omaha (Offutt AFB), or Kansas City (Whiteman AFB nearby), in that order.

        Whitman AFB is the front runner on your list. Maybe somewhere in Texas. Definitely not the Rockies, too many billionaires. Although something 15km offshore Long Beach would also be interesting with all those bases and dense population.

      • elysianfield March 11, 2022 at 11:21 am #

        Dis,
        Offutt AFB.

        Dad was stationed there in 1961. Cheyanne complex is base of NORAD, and in the days of Missiles, of secondary importance. Offutt, however, still is the head of what became of the Strategic Air Command, which controls two legs of the Nuclear Triad.

        I actually was allowed, with escort, to enter the third level of the underground command center…watched as t he SAC controller did a global security check, and I SAW THE BIG BOARD…yes, there really is one, but was curtained at the time I was there.

        I was 14. The country was arguably at the height of empire.

        Cool.

        • Disaffected March 11, 2022 at 11:50 am #

          Impressive! My hometown is Omaha, but I never got into the bowels at Offutt. Yes, Omaha would be a very likely city. Not of MAJOR importance to the globalist glitterati (other than Buffet, but he’d probably be notified ahead of time), but big enough to get everyone’s attention. And because of Offutt, it’s “explainable” as a likely Russian target.

          • tresho March 11, 2022 at 5:42 pm #

            “it’s “explainable” as a likely Russian target” Worse would be a nuke going off near some UN-likely target that has little or nothing to do with the current uproar in Ukraine. Given the fact that our vaunted intelligence community in 1962 had no idea the Soviet subs our Navy was attacking in the Caribbean during the Cuban Missile crisis had nuclear torpedoes on board with local commanders fully authorized to launch them, is something our “top men” prefer to ignore, perpetually.

      • CyberPass March 13, 2022 at 8:33 pm #

        Someone should educate Lindsay Graham and others of his ilk re The Church Committee, which in the wake of JFK’s assassination came out strongly against state-sponsored assassination, it having been felt at the time that Fidel Castro, who had endured more than one CIA-sponsored attempt open his life, may have been behind it. And this was codified by Congress.
        But Might Makes Right is today’s operative ethos: the U.S.’ John Donaghue, for example sits on the U.N. World Court, which arrested and placed Serbia’s Slobodan Miloševi? on trial for war crimes, but George Bush rammed through legislation which grants immunity to members of the U.S. armed forces.

        from your source “Any aggression from this point on will be met with annihilation of the aggressor.” That is about the same “cure” as stopping a barroom brawl with flamethrowers and hand grenades.

      • JTinMD March 12, 2022 at 8:55 am #

        From your lovely blog post, “Imagine the renaissance that could occur if some alien race visited us and laid down the law: “Stop military spending immediately and use that money to improve the lives of your citizens. Any aggression from this point on will be met with annihilation of the aggressor.”

    Great point on the labs James, just saw an interesting video on it myself this morning:

    https://www.c-span.org/video/?c5005237/user-clip-marco-rubio-qeustions-victoria-nuland-backed-biolabs-ukraine

    Note that Rubio asks the sellout if she thinks the Ruskies would release weapons on the Ukrainians and blame it on the Ukrainians and of course she said yes. In a world where inference and innuendo have replaced fact and evidence, anything goes and nothing really matters. We are in serious trouble people.

    Chinese State Media has been telling the good citizens of China that Covid 19 was a product of the US military. What happens when China declares sanctions against the US and decides that it will not do any business with any nation that does business with the US. Then what?

    I can only guess that the US will begin threatening everyone, including its own citizens with nuclear weapons.

    Fun times indeed.

      China also says the Hong Kong protests of 2019 were a US “color revolution” attempt, which patriotic citizens gloriously put down. Their state media celebrate that the so-called troublemakers (protestors) failed in their so-called coup attempt against the rightful Communist Party government of Hong Kong.

      It all makes one feel dirty listening to. The “Covid was released on patriotic and noble Chinese by evil and genocidal yankees” is even weaker and even less plausible than the spin they put on the suppression of Hong Kong.

      If ordinary PRC-Chinese ‘buy’ their hamfisted state-media lines, I pity them; a life led like that seems beneath the dignity of a human being.

        Well it certainly had all the earmarks of a Color Revolution: antifa, Western advisors, mass Western media coverage, etc. Not that I blame the Hong Kongers for not wanting to give up a Western type government of course. Like us, they want to focus on making money and getting rich without anyone or anything getting in their way. That leads to nothing good of course, namely becoming like us.

        Recalling the incidents, it did have the markings of a color revolution with NGOs involved in some capacity. Still, from memory, one large issue was creating and enforcing extradition to be ‘tried’ on the mainland. An entirely different system than the developed legal system in HK as a former British colony and a legit issue.

        I think there’s more to come regarding how SARS-CoV-19 came to be and how it was released.

        Perhaps the Russian military be filling in a few blanks as time passes.

      • Paula D March 11, 2022 at 4:37 pm #

        Have you seen the videos of the “protests”?
        They make the BLM riots look tame.
        And SARS 2 was most likely released from Ft Dietrick in July 2019 and taken to Wuhan in the Wuhan Military Games by US soldiers, four of whom were hospitalized in Wuhan with an unknown respiratory virus in November 2019.
        And the “protests” were not about their government, per se, they were protesting an extradition bill.
        A Hong Kong man and his pregnant girlfriend had gone to Taiwan. He killed her there, chopped up her body and put it in a case, then went back to Hong Kong.
        Hong Kong does not have an extradition treaty with Taiwan, so the man went free. The legislature introduced a bill to remedy that problem.
        It shows the power of the media that Americans can look at violent rioters smashing businesses, beating an elderly man to death with a brick, taking over the airport, etc., all in defense of a violent woman murderer….and wax eloquent about ”freedom” for those oppressed Hong Kongers.
        SMDH.

        • Paula D March 11, 2022 at 4:40 pm #

          And then to think that supporting woman murderers when the media tells you to makes you somehow “dignified”.

          I was working from memory. I knew Taiwan was in the mix, but could not recall why. Thanks.

          At the time I read about it through SCMP, back when I was reading it on a regular basis.

          What you’re highlighting is likely, from memory, how I came across the NGOs.

          I read about SARs-Cov-2 there first, part of the story concerning Dr. Li Wenliang and the way he was ‘treated’.

          • Paula D March 12, 2022 at 4:00 pm #

            I was working from memory also and after I posted I thought “DId he chop her up or just shove her into the case? Did I get it mixed up with the Khasoggi story?”
            Yeah, for sure the NGOs and also the State Dept, just like the Maiden.
            There was a YouTube video out for a while showing a white man directing the “protesters” down the street. Also one with a meeting between the “protesters” and State Dept officials.
            I’m not familiar with Dr. Li Wenliang or what happened to him.

        RE: Those of you half-endorsing or non-rejecting the PRC state-media line that the Hong Kong protests were possibly a “color revolution”:

        Recall that the status quo was of Hong Kong having a functional, independent, non-Communist (non-CCP) government, with its own freedom guarantees for (e.g.) Internet access, freedom of speech, of assembly, of economic activity, of travel, and a long list of other British-inherited traditions. This was the status quo (now eliminated).

        The PRC had sworn up and down, and given written guarantees when the British handover occurred, of NO annexation until 2049. And then they grabbed Hong Kong anyway, attempted through deceitful means (a kind of “color revolution from the top,” machinations from Beijing, followed by armed force) and Hong Kong was thus crushed.

        It was a moral betrayal by the PRC, and a disturbing sign of how a now-rich PRC wants to operate in the world.

        But the critical thing is, the agent or actor attempting a radical change of status-quo was not the hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong protestors but the PRC and its intelligence services and media and police forces and all the arms of the state.

        They didn’t need to crush and annex Hong Kong (by annex, I mean eliminate its independent government and crush those loyal to it). The people basically defending the status quo were the protestors. This basic framework does not fit the “color revolution” line, or, if it does, it seems to loosely fit the PRC better, as the actor attempting a sweeping regime change.

        Off all the big “state-medias” out there, one ought to perhaps be most cautious about the PRC’s.

        • Not_GeorgeT March 11, 2022 at 11:05 pm #

          Could the NGOs have operated as agents of the PRC (CCP)?

          You are making shit up. Actually, I assume that you are just channeling shit someone else made up and fed to you.
          The extradition treaty had nothing to do with your list of supposed “democracy” traditions. (And at this point, any American spouting any tripe about ”democracy” should be ignored or ridiculed).
          There was no change in the One Country Two Systems agreement, you are spouting lies.
          There was no invasion by Bejing, you are spouting more lies. The entire thing was handled (most citizens thought mishandled because they let the rioters rampage for months) by Hong Kong authorities.
          Hong Kong had no “democracy” under British rule, you are spouting more lies.
          Most Americans who pay attention and have more than two brain cells can at this point recognize a Color Revolution when they see one.

            Although this could seem like a detour, revisiting Lincoln might be a good idea.

            Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus in 1863. Similarities to the detention of the people imprisoned on or about January 6, 2020?

            Prior to this, he created an army and invaded the Confederate States of America, who seceded over states rights issues. This represented a Constitutional Crisis settled by force of arms, not through the courts.

            In this regard, who knows what the future holds in this particular arena………..

            Missouri was rather unmanageable, suffering a constitutional crisis at the state level, confiscation of private property by the US government, a partial emancipation of slaves (loyal to the Union? you can keep your slaves), guerrilla warfare, burning of towns by the US military,….. this just scratches the surface.

            I’m not in any way implying the situation was non-complex. Lots of moving parts happening here.

            While I’m at it, what was happening in Ukraine in the 1860s?

            From what what I can determine, the people there at the time were still debating what to call the territory, having ‘Rus’ still in use, and eventually deciding to use variations with the rather newly coined word Ukraine.

            “It took a while for the Ukrainian name to catch on. In the 1880s, activists in Eastern Halychyna still used Rus in the titles of their societies, while the ‘Dilo’ (Action – ed.) publication used Mykhailo Maksymovych’s orthography in the early 1890s. Even the reorganized Taras Shevchenko Academic Society was still described as a Ukrainian-Rus Society, as was the Rus-Ukrainian Radical Party, the first national-oriented political force of Eastern Halychyna.”

            The problem with ‘being sovereign’ is that to really do that, one must first give up the social security number, which is your number of a US corporate slave/citizen. Doing so, breaks your contract with the US Corp to be their slave/citizen. If you do that , there are questions about whether you can have a driver’s license, professional license, etc., and you can definitely not receive social security OR pensions that are tied to the SS# in ALL cases, or receive ANY services tied to that government number (e.g. Medicare or supplements). I’m looking at retiring in Mexico and eventually renouncing the SS# and Corp US slave status/ ‘citizenship’. Final decision Depends on who wins the current war(s).

    Corona Pro-Panic + Ukraine Anti-Panic
    Corona Pro-Panic + Ukraine Neutral

    Corona Anti-Panic + Ukraine Pro-Panic
    Corona Anti-Panic + Ukraine Anti-Panic
    Corona Anti-Panic + Ukraine Neutral

    Corona Neutral + Ukraine Pro-Panic
    Corona Neutral + Ukraine Anti-Panic
    Corona Neutral + Ukraine Neutral

    Who goes where?

    CNN, of course, is “Corona Pro-Panic + Ukraine Pro-Panic.”

    (The responsible, adult position of yester-year would probably have been closest “Corona Anti-Panic + Ukraine Anti-Panic,” which I think is where a lot of Kunstler Blog readers are by instinct and by reading.)

    “Wall Street has sniffed out a motherlode of rot, according to Mr. Edward Dowd, BlackRock investment advisor emeritus, who is saying it loudly over the alt-streams, making a whole lot of public health officials and doctors nervous as roaches when the lights flash on.”

    BlackRock?

    BlackRock is the financial strong arm of the WEF Globalist Billionaire Cartel. You want to know why you’ll own nothing? It’s because BlackRock will own it, and as long as you keep up your social credit score, they’ll rent it to you. Happy?

    But I digress, if BlackRock is telling the truth about something, it is because it suits THEIR purpose.

      Dowd was a co-manager of just one fund 10 years ago, he made maybe $2 or $3 million a year, and did not and does not have any kind of spokesman role for Blackrock. This “former manager at Blackrock” or “former [sales] manager at Pharma X” stuff gets thrown around on the internet sounding way more important than it is.

    “The *cartoon character* Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum ”

    It is long past time for our host to move off this square on the pachisi board of trivializing Schwab as a “Bond Villain” or a “cartoon character.”
    He is on the wrong board.
    That is, wrong game.

    Actually, it is also kind of racist, since it seems to be based on Schwab’s accent.

    Much good info, links, etc. have been presented here regarding the depth of Schwab’s penetration into government and institutions around the world, including in these united states. But Kunstler appears to have read none of it.

    My Moscow contact, a fairly senior (Russian) financial analyst, writes this, this a.m.:

    “I don’t think that WEF is a joke either. Klaus Schwab is not a joker, but may be a high-ranking card in the deck.”

    Both the “cartoonish Schwab” and “backwater Ukraine” memes /filters vitiate the rest of our hosts brilliant observations.

      I think one can see Schwab both as a caricature of someone like Dr. Evil (he is) and also recognize his role in the WEF and the Great Reset.

      It’s almost as if it were concocted decades ago to be theatrical. IMHO, everything these people do is ridiculously over-staged and theatrical.

          I grew up in LA. We didn’t have fireflies or frogs or cicadas, but we did have Disneyland.
          Sometimes I sit out on the deck on summer nights, watching the fireflies and listening to the frogs and I tell my husband “This is just like Disneyland!”
          And then I realize how weird that is.

        The whole Ukraine thing seems staged, like a new distraction from the real crimes. The image of how gypsy shoplifter families operated where I used to live comes to mind. The adults would cause a ruckus to give cover for the kids grabbing high value items and running out the door.

            Wow, that is pretty wild. I wonder what the context is of the picture.

            Whatever it is, my point remains.

            Constantly attaching these epithets a la Homer (“wind-dark sea”; (rosy-fingered dawn”) to Schwab and using this an a metonym for the whole WEF factoin creates a distraction as to what he and those associated with him are actually up to.

            Tom Luongo has a pretty good grasp on international finance and related subjects. Hence I recommend his discussion of the WEFers vs. the others. Per Luongo, the WEF powerbase is in Europe (with tentacles, of course). “Others” are actually commercial banksters, in particular, regional bankers in the USA who have no intention of seeing their financial and other activities centralized as the WEF program envisions and has been quite successful at executing. Viz. the covid op.

            Putin is also in the “contra” camp.

        I think reactions would be quite different if Schwab’s name were, say, John Benton and he spoke a clipped Oxbridge English.

        The aspects of Schwab’s presentation that elicit these responses are all superficial and align with American stereotypes.

        As for Klingon vest, I have no idea what this refers to in Schwab’s wardrobe. I have only seen him pictured in a normal business suit.

    • Jarek March 11, 2022 at 12:43 pm #

      From our pov Ukraine is unimportant. To Russia it is crucial. There isn’t one pov in these things. If we think Ukraine is important, that simply means we are zeroing in on Russia and not minding our own business.

      Schwab is a serious man, yes. But also remember, humor is a deadly weapon. Can we keep both of these point of views in mind at the same time?

    Well here we go Long Emergency! It is having an acute moment. This is really just a type of an acceleration or a slide into worse standard of living for people across the planet. The availability and prices of food and energy in particular will affect everybody, including everyone writing for and contributing to this blog.

    How much affordable, exploitable oil is left in places like the M.E. and Venezuala? Forget Russia for a moment. I’m gonna guess probably not enough.

    Then what? An attempt at the Bakken, again? How much realistically does that have left? Nobody knows.

    I believe Musk came out in the last couple days and mentioned the words “nuclear energy” for the first time I’ve heard yet on the MSM. The fella is producing electric vehicles, so yeah.. it only behooves him to help create the solution to power his own products.

    But new nuclear power plants aren’t simple, fly by night things to build. They take years.

    So. We are collectively like Wiley E. Coyote haven just fallen off the cliff, grasping and momentarily holding on to little tuffs of weeds & the detritus of the mountainside as we sometimes slowly– and other times uncontrollably quickly & desperately– head to the inevitable POOF! of the sand cloud of the unforgiving bottom.

          Uranium One. Secretary of State Hildebeast approved a deal allowing Rosatom, the Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation, to buy Uranium One, an American company owned by Canadian – and member of the Clinton Foundation board – Frank Giustra. As part of the deal, Rosatom also bought uranium exploration rights in Arizona, Colorado, and Utah. Giustra also bought mines in Kazakhstan, transforming his former shell company into one of the largest uranium producers. Bill Clinton received $500,000 from Renaissance Capital, the Russian bank financing the sale, for making a speech shortly afterward. The Clinton Foundation received over $25 million from Giustra.

      France has many, many nuclear plants, all carbon copies. Why? Learning curve. Building the last one was much easier, less costly, and more reliable than the first. The US needs to bring over a French team, pay them lots of money, build five plants, say Merci, and build a hundred of them, just the same.

      Someone will figure out how to get rid of spent fuel, maybe a justification for NASA. Safety and reliability stem from repetition.

This new version is the past and no different past can ever have existed. In principle the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation.

            I also agree with your assessment of its abilities.
            On November 21, 2918, the British minister of foreign affairs, Lord Curzon, declared “the allied cause floated to victory upon a wave of oil,”
            Whose oil? Our oil.
            The US had boatloads of oil. The US mostly used it to wage war, including wars to get more once the home supply was used up.
            There once was plenty and that is when Orwell made his statement. But they used up everything.
            And here we are now. As someone put it, we were born in the century of Fuck Around and now we are in the century of And Find Out.

          The Swimsuit issue used to be fun.
          I worked at SI back in the day, in the articles department (yes, there was a heck of a lot of good writing in SI in those days) and everyone on staff, men and women, had a favorite. Where the hell were they going to go this time to find an undiscovered beach??? Who would end up on the cover?
          No one cared about the models’ personalities. They were models, for chrissakes.
          The trick was to manage to look both wholesome and sexy at the same time. The models who developed a following and became favorites— like Christie Brinkley, Cheryl Tiegs, Elle MacPherson, Carol Alt, Paulina Porizkova, and others—did it on their own, through their natural appeal, not via obvious PC PR.

          The fatties in the new menu are simply gross. Most of the others look like hookers of some kind.

        Some kinds are fairly low in tanins. White oak acorns are much lower in tanins than red oak acorns. (The red oak ones are basically inedible.) The best white oak acorns come from burr oaks, and they are huge. The flavor is somewhat reminiscent of coconut.

        One suggestion for leaching out the tanins is to crush them a bit and hang them in your toilet tank in a mesh bag for a week or two, though I’ve never tried that method.

    I remember at the Sochi Olympics, Matt Lauer having conniptions over Russia’s president Vladimir Putin’s “anti-gay” law.

    Putin said this back in 2013:

    “Vladimir Putin has defended Russia’s anti-gay laws in his annual address to both chambers of the Russian parliament.

    In an apparent reference to the laws banning “propaganda of non-traditional relations”, the Russian president said that on the international arena Russia sees itself as a defender of conservative values against what it considers an assault of “genderless and fruitless so-called tolerance” which he said “equals good and evil”.

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/dec/12/vladimir-putin-defends-russia-anti-gay-conservatism

    I was reminded of this the other day, by Disney Corporation’s “concerns” over Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill, which doesn’t say “gay” anywhere, it just bans government employees from talking to young children about adult sexuality, and from concealing from parents what they do say to their children.

    This is an anti-grooming law, and it has become more and more evident to me that one of the goals of the New World Order is the normalization of pedophilia, and anyone who wants to talk to your kids about sexual matters without you knowledge is a straight-up pervert.

    The reasons people say they are against Putin aren’t valid, when the same people ignore he actions of world leaders like Trudeau in Canada and *Biden in the USA.

    Ukraine is a center for human trafficking. There are a lot of people exploiting the people of Ukraine with fake concerns for their freedom, when their real motives are to leave all the corruption in that place untouched.

        @ Islander:

        I’ve known many gay men over the years. Most died of AIDS many years ago, but a couple of them are still living. Most were fine people.

        However, my only remaining gay friend that I still talk to has changed a great deal since those long-ago days when we first met in college in the 70s. Back then, he was deeply religious and even planned to become a monk. He was strongly conservative and believed in personal responsibility–and liked to lecture people about it. But within the past ten years or so, he has embraced the victim mentality. Last time I was at house for dinner, he and his SO talked of little else besides their victimhood. (People called them a faggot in college, and Mom liked their sister better.) He’s also embraced the belief in 57 genders (which IMHO are “the 57 sexual fetishes.”) He’s now an extreme leftist politically. I attribute this to the fact that both he and his SO are retired government or quasi-government employees, and their pensions trump all other considerations.

        In the old days, gays just wanted to live their lives without secrecy or the threat of prison or job loss–which was very real.

        Nowadays, gays demand that you not only approve and endorse their lifestyle, but also DEMAND that you play along and pretend that fantasy is reality–and demand laws that would punish you for not playing along.

        Like blacks, they want people to LIKE them. And they think this can be legislated.

        My usual reply to the victimhood thing is to point out that I don’t know anyone who hasn’t had it tough. My usual reply to the demand to be liked is that there are many people who don’t like me, and I don’t consider the resulting emotional trauma to be a political or legislative issue.

          Don’t stop at the personal. They are a group with group consciousness. They want special rights like affirmative action. They want to be able to destroy those who look at them wrong. They want to dominate. At one point, they were even getting ahead of Blacks, with Black afftletes forced to apologize for anti-gay slurs. But that was before the coup. Now Blacks are on top as the foremost visible minority, with Gay Blacks as the ultimates, next to Black trannies perhaps.

            I think the at the top are illegal immigrants, Jarek.
            I admit I am basing that on one anecdote.
            A drunk illegal who had already been deported once and then came back, ran over and killed a young black high school football star.
            I would have thought that black and football trumped illegal, but no, there was no outcry among the mockingbird media.
            Interesting.

          Most of the homosexuals I have known have been totally scewed up as human beings. That’s what alerted me to the massive gulf between the MSM view of homosexuality (witty, waspish and Wilde) and the reality (nasty, brutish and short). Many became friends, but boy, I thank God that I am heterosexual.

          Douglas Murray wrote an excellent book about the new propensity of certain groups to claim victimhood now, after the groups had achieved unprecedented gains. Why not bask in their laurels? Why start demanding more and more like Yertle the Turtle? It is odd. Personally, I think it comes from the top and is internalized by the plebes.
          Jarek would like the book. It includes women.
          The book is called “The Madness of Crowds”.

      Here’s an interesting article:

      https://spectatorworld.com/topic/putin-understands-american-moral-decay/

      I have to think that even gays (at least the sane ones who just want to live their lives in peace) want children protected from too much information at a much too early age. I realize they had to fight for equal rights and to be treated with dignity and those gains should not be minimized. But all sense of proportion has been erased, it seems to me. And you’re right about this being a grooming opportunity for pedophiles. I saw an interview with a convicted pedophile probably 20 years ago and he said — “don’t be surprised when the youth director at church, the boy scout leader, camp director, gym teacher, etc are the pedophiles. We’re very good at putting ourselves close to kids.”

      The movie The Whistleblower with Rachael Weisz is a based on a true story of human trafficking of young women during the NATO intervention in Bosnia. Many of the people who participated in this got away scot-free b/c of diplomatic immunity.

    • dorn March 11, 2022 at 11:43 am #

      Speaking of Dillinger, I watched the movie the other day; 1973 with Warren Oates. I recommend it. You can get it on Bit Shoot. Don’t make em like that, any more. I’ve always been fascinated by the bank robbers of that era. There was a story going around, at the time, that Pretty Boy Floyd would destroy mortgage documents while robbing the bank. There appears to be no evidence that this actually occurred, but all the more reason for him to be regarded as a kind of Robin Hood.

    I was just a short time ago talking to a road service driver, and he is completely aware of the issues surrounding high fuel prices, the role of Cash for Clunkers in getting us out of our cars, and the fact that there is an agenda in play that the news media doesn’t tell us about.

    The thing I don’t get is how more local reporters haven’t gone rogue and started telling it like it is.

    They seem to still believe everything they’ve been told, and when the “authorities” tell them to now start believing something else, they just go ahead without questioning it.

      Local TV stations are usually affiliated with national networks and, my guess, are pretty closely regulated.

        Local stations where I am are NBC and ABC affiliates. The local stations perspective is always in line with the national content. I think the anchor, sports and weatherman are all (for lack of a better way to put it) are foreigners, certainly not from my neck of the woods in the Deep South. Regulation has nothing to do with their politics and social stances. Or maybe. I’m one of those truckers. Now retired.

Hundreds of thousands of unwitting people are systematically exposed to dangerous pathogens and other incurable diseases. Bio warfare scientists using diplomatic cover test man-made viruses at Pentagon bio laboratories in 25 countries across the world. These US bio-laboratories are funded by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) under a $ 2.1 billion military program– Cooperative Biological Engagement Program (CBEP), and are located in former Soviet Union countries such as Georgia and Ukraine, the Middle East, South East Asia and Africa.”

    Another attempt to get this point across. Most of the world “leaders” are all graduates of the WEF young leaders club. Putin, Macron, et.al. This isn’t about Russia, Ukraine, US, or any of that bullshit. It is what it’s always been, the fucking BANKSTERS against humanity, and they are still winning. You think they crucified Christ because he fed the homeless or maybe was even the son of god? How would that make him the most wanted man in the known world? How about maybe it was because he was at war with the money changers(BANKSTERS). When Rumsfeld said we were missing 21 or 23 trillion dollars from the pentagon the day before 911(coincidence I’m sure) and people were wondering, where did it go? I was wondering where the fuck it came from???? Who ever controls the money controls the world, and we gave the control of our money to the banksters in 1913. So, a trillion here for antifa, a trillion there for BLM, shit, way less then a trillion for congress, probably a couple hundred grand for the supreme court(LOL), pretty soon I will own the world. Only problem is the people, or too many people. So, a few trillion for my underground city and I can watch the balloon go up in comfort. I only wish it wasn’t so, but it is looking more and more like it. The MAIN problem as far as I can tell, is when this is all over and if we survive all the horrors, nothing will have changed, because the banksters will have survived also and all this shit will happen all over again, and again, and again, just like it’s happened before over and over again…….Until people wake up to the real problem there is just no fixing it. It aint about race, sex, love, hate, logic, science or anything. These are just more weapons they use against us. It is all about the fucking money and who controls it. Fiat by the bankers or gold by the people. I don’t have a bank account so as far as I’m concerned, they can go fuck themselves !!!!

      I had my first ever consultation with a doc in the private sector today, just because the wait in the NHS to see a dermatologist is mental and it was something I was worried about.

      Anyway, he was the one who mentioned masks – said he hoped we’d soon be able to get rid of them. I was wearing one, because the hospital insisted – nice young man at the door saying you had to use one of theirs. Whatever. But I said to the consultant that I’d already got rid of them – mostly (present company excepted) – and that they were entirely unscientific and pointless, as was a whole lot of the other stuff. He said ‘you’re absolutely right’. First sane doc I’ve come across in ages.

      I asked him if he knew anything about cancers increasing after the vaxx programme (I thought he should be able to cope with having his ear bent for 5 minutes since I was paying him £200 of my hard earned for half an hour of his time). No idea. Not heard anything about adverse effects or anything else. They live in a bubble, even the well-meaning ones.

      • tresho March 11, 2022 at 6:10 pm #

        “They live in a bubble, even the well-meaning ones.” Quite a few health care practitioners in the USA have been doing just that since March 2020. Over a year ago I had the pleasure of informing my sister’s nurse practitioner that the hospital system which employed same practitioner had been running an outpatient infusion center for monoclonal antibodies against Covid-19 for several months prior. Practitioner did not know there was anything like that within 200 miles.
        —- There were a great many stories online of COVID outpatients who were told by their own physicians that there was NO outpatient therapy for their condition — which was either a lie or culpable ignorance the part of the physician. I am hoping at this late stage that families who lost loved elders to COVID, elders who had been refused referrals to existing infusion centers in time, start suing the practitioners who concealed the real facts.

        • GreenAlba March 12, 2022 at 6:38 pm #

          No, I hadn’t seen that, Paula. I’ve always found him exasperating.

          He’s roasted here on ‘HugoTalks’ (new to me, but mentioned in one of the comments so I checked it out).

          https://hugotalks.com/2022/02/13/dr-john-campbell-hugo-talks-lockdown/comment-page-1/

          The comments under Hugo’s short video are not kind, and I absolutely agree with them. There is no way he could not have heard the information that we’ve all been hearing since last summer. Either he’s a shill or he’s a complete idiot – that was always my feeling. Although, bizarrely, Russell Brand had him on and presented him as the best thing since sliced bread, which surprised me.

          I got a message months ago from Nextdoor, saying someone had posted one of his videos. I was surprised that people even posted stuff like that on Nextdoor, but I posted a Robert Malone interview in response, without much comment (on my part), and my post was removed within 3 minutes. I pointed this out on the thread and was told it was probably because it was a far-right website (it was New American).

          The first comment after the Campbell link was someone saying how good it was to hear some sensible science instead of conspiracy theories. Another guy responded innocuously with ‘but remember there are other scientific opinions, such as what they’re doing in India. Do your own research’. He got a few LOLs and his comment was removed too.

          So I really, really hope that all those preening dolts on Nextdoor have now listened to his latest videos and read the comments below them, and are suitably concerned. One woman was talking about taking her 13-year-old for her second dose. It was all I could do not to say anything (it’s risky because it’s not anonymous).

          I wonder if he really got the three jabs? And if he’s going to get the fourth they’re now pushing here for health workers and 75-year-olds (my cohort will follow).

            Yes, he can be annoying when he believes the Science™ ”research”, but I was following him anyway because some of his information was interesting.
            Then last week he had some Russian artist expatriate on to talk about Putin’s mental health and I got pissed off and unsubscribed.
            So yeah, I hear you. But in a way, it’s even more effective when a True Believer converts. Well, you know that, because you mentioned it last week.
            But he has a million followers, so it will probably make more of a dent.
            He’s already being seriously attacked by the “Fact Checkers”.
            Actually, he strayed from the Official Narrative last year, when he cited research showing that Ivermectin was effective, and got attacked for that, and he has had vaccine injured people on his show also.
            He’ll probably get fired now.

          • GreenAlba March 13, 2022 at 11:18 am #

            I agree it’s good when someone like him has to change the narrative – as with the Nextdoor know-it-alls, all sorts of people may wake up, although some of them will find ways of convincing themselves that the vaxxes are ‘mostly safe’, just as the BLM demos were ‘mostly peaceful’.

            I wish more people would watch Russell Brand – he’s doing great stuff on Ukraine as well as covid. I know his style’s not for everyone. He used to annoy me to death years ago, when his showing off was all in the service of self-promotion, but he’s grown up and uses his showing-off persona (to which he happily admits) to more useful effect! He reaches a lot of people – not as many as Joe Rogan, but 5 million is quite good for a Brit based in Britain.

    The mistiming in their grand scheme is epic. They got the mail-in-voting, barely in time, but the high gas prices are far, far off.

    Now, when people are returning to work and school, chain escapism restaurants, comic-book movie cineplexes, Carnival Norovirus cruises, and staycation road trip season they decide to push gas to… I don’t know, $250 a barrel?

    And best part, that you cannot possibly make up: they have audacity to blame it on the Russians. It is unreal.

    The VP and the Infrastructure Trsar(ina) tell people to get electric cars.
    But those are very overpriced because…

    “For your consideration: is it possible that Russian intel knew a little something about those Ukraine labs before February 24, 2022 and became concerned that another concocted freak-of-nature pestilence might get loose there on the Eurasian frontier? ”

    My exact thoughts as well. I was surprised when he decided to invade and not just stop and consolidate the Russian majority territory in the east. This explains it in spades. It’s an act of war that we perpetrated, goddamn these sociopaths we call leaders!

    And now I am reading all these states are implementing a gas tax holiday to what effect, save 15-25 cents per gallon? All this while the price will continue to climb exponentially anyway. Buy hey, I am sure that all the infrastructure supported by the gas taxes will be more than made up for with the BBB funding our government is about to spread across the land.

    Remember this come election day: (1) gas prices were low under Trump and he took us closer to energy independence than ever before; (2) gas prices under Biden are at record highs and the economy is in freefall, with things only about to go from bad to worse and then to deplorable.

      Remember THIS come election day: In 2020 both the Dem primary AND the main presidential election were stolen in plain daylight and then all traces of the record were first ignored, then destroyed after the fact. If we even have a presidential election again it will be rigged going and coming: first by only allowing only completely bought and paid for candidates to be nominated, and second, rigging the election itself in favor of a pre-selected candidate as necessary. There will be no mistakes.

        Trump was lucky enough to come during the blow-off top near the peak of the fracking revolution and rode that wave. It wasn’t destined to last forever, but that’s beside the point. Along comes “Joe Biden” who is clearly run by foreign actors. They literally want to collapse the US. When comparing the two, it’s hard to tease out the purely ecological and economic factors associated with oil fracking production versus the outright treason that we now witness.

    Project Veritas unmasked a NY Times reporter who truth-shredded his own employer.

    He said the supposed “paper of record” of the United States is spoon-fed by the intel agencies and willfully spreads disinformation.
    (Which many already know is truth and has been happening for ages BTW.)

    He said or insinuated that January 6 was an entrapment job that is being blown out of proportion.

    This is the paper of record.
    The top/most respected US news agency.

      Just finished reading an interesting book about the early publishing business days of W.R. Hearst. It talked about all of his competition, namely The Sun, The Globe, and the NY Times.

      It was stated that the masthead slogan “All the News That’s Fit to Print” came out as a result of this competition, due to the yellow journalism going around with absolute gutter stories reported, but that is what sold the papers and the public ate them up! Anyway, the Times went with this slogan to show that they only print news that is “fit” and acceptable for their family values.

      My how far we have come….

      They supported Stalin. They’ve been crooked for generations but Americans lacked the wit to see it. Slowly have some of us learned.

      The Ukrainians forgot all their street smarts in an amazingly short time, electing an actor who then ran on the platform he had on the show, “Servant of the People”, namely entering the EU and NATO. Complete conflation of entertainment and reality, far beyond the Regan fiasco. They immediately went to an Obama level of misinformation.

      • Blackbird March 11, 2022 at 9:24 pm #

        Did the Ukrainians really elect an actor?

    Alex Berenson has a different take on the Ukraine/Russia situation:

    “Back in the good old days the Soviet Union ran a large biological weapons program. Sometimes bad things happened with that program, notably in 1979, when an anthrax leak from a laboratory in Sverdlovsk killed about 100 civilians. The Soviets lied — shocker, I know — and blamed “tainted meat” for the deaths.

    Then, in 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed. The end of history, the triumph of democratic capitalism, yadda yadda yadda, yabba-dabba-doo. Meanwhile all those biological weapons labs (and nuclear labs too), and the scientists who worked for them, were now the property of a defunct and bankrupt state.

    Which made them our problem.”

          He has been called “the pandemic’s wrongest man”, but the truth is, no one was more right than he, about the vaccines. Nobody.

          • Beryl of Oyl March 11, 2022 at 2:37 pm #

            He’s a writer, and a reporter. His work exposing the failure of the vaccines, as well as the dangers, had the potential to save millions if not billions of lives.

            But hey, if there’s something about his personal demeanor you don’t like, we should all trash his work and never listen to a word he says again.

          • Beryl of Oyl March 11, 2022 at 3:02 pm #

            Mary, the issue I am commenting on is his Twitter ban. His Twitter ban was solely due to his factual assertions about the vaccines.

            As to his “side” in the Russia/Ukraine fight, I posted his piece to show another point of view. I did not endorse his opinion or side or anything.

            Alex’s reaction to the Twitter ban has IMO no bearing on the quality of his work nor on the validity of his opinions on other issues.

        I see a movie plot in there, ‘City with No Name’, or ‘The Last Train to Moscow’.

        The year is 1990, the Soviet Union is collapsing, chaos at the train station as thousands clamor to board the last train headed west before the industrial reactor in The City With No Name melts down completely. Once aboard, our pretty protagonist (with bad teeth) scrapes some frost off the RR car window; outside, it is snowing hard, and she can see the barren, frozen steppe and the glow of the failing reactor on the horizon.

      From the Berenson article:

      ” IT IS RUSSIA THAT IS BLOWING UP HOSPITALS AND TURNING CIVILIANS INTO DOG FOOD.”

      In addition to wasting munitions on murdering women, children, doctors and nurses in a maternity hospital the Russians are also “reducing cities to rubble”. Reuters didn’t specify which cities they reduced to rubble nor did they show photos of the cities reduced to rubble but they’re doing it. It doesn’t make sense to waste resources as an official policy.

      “.. liberate Ukraine from its Jewish president and his evil Nazi army (say it fast and it makes even less sense!).”

      I keep reading that being a nationalist or “Nazi” requires that you won’t have anything to do with Jews and want them all dead or that Jews can’t cooperate with nationalists when they have common interests. If the nationalist militia is doing things to keep the Jewish president in power why would he stop them? He might even get Israel to get them wepons thinking that once he gets Ukraine in NATO he can neuter them.

        Your reading regarding the interaction between Nazis and Jews doesn’t agree with what I have read recently. That is, that the Third Reich and German Zionists attempted to cooperate on a plan to relocate German Jews somewhere else. Both groups realized that they didn’t belong together.

        The International Zionist Congress, however, had no intention of working with Germany on a solution to the “Jewish question”. Just months after Hitler took power, the International Zionist Congress “declared war” on Germany.

          Sure enough the article mentions them. Occult influences, even some overt Satanism. But anti-Semitism is still in the mix. Maybe the Azovs morphed out of it, focusing all their animus on Russia and the Russians – even though most of them are Russian, lol.

          Some guys really only care about the Fight. The thinnest of pretexts or ideologies will suffice. Not even rational mercenaries who will flee if the face of defeat. Just thugs and crazies, perhaps being lead by people who do care about something – but what exactly?

      I have a cousin out in western NE who is due to retire from UP soon, if he hasn’t already. He was blue collar is whole career, so he’s got nothing particularly good to say about “the firm,” although I think he’ll collect a pretty decent retirement.

      Another acquaintance in Council Bluffs, IA (across the river from Omaha) who retired white collar from the big office. Not surprisingly, gushes about UP constantly on FaceBook and elsewhere.

      Yep, UP is a true behemoth in the RR industry. It’s the only game in town across much of its mainline.

    “… Americans barely noticed that the US government went to war on its own citizens.”

    When you run out of outside ‘enemies’ (or can’t ‘sell’ them well enough to successfully peddle your chosen Narrative), you turn to the only ‘enemies’ left – YOUR OWN PEOPLE.

    But governments are ALWAYS at war with their own people all the time. Usually it’s done quietly and without much notice. But toward the end of an Empire’s life span, the war becomes overt and more openly dangerous as the People have become wise to the ongoing cons and abuse.

    “ Was there something in the water… Or did those ‘vaccines,’ which were so popular as an emblem of their obedience to The Science, turn their brains into something like an Oreo McFlurry?”

    Enticing one to commit voluntary suicide is always an easier program to conduct than open warfare in the streets.

    “… 29 — science projects in the foreign land called Ukraine, discovered in the course of Russian military operations there.”

    Let’s see. Just where is it in the Declaration of Independence where it says that The New Indispensable Nation has the right to construct biolabs in many foreign lands? Must be in there some place.

    We throw off the tyranny of The King to become Kings of the World ourselves.

    “Russia, Russia, Russia.”

    Wasn’t that the ditty in that old Ipana Toothpaste commercial? Paging Bucky Beaver, space guard!

    “And ‘Putin, Putin, Putin.’”

    If They are going to keep pushing this trope, then at least make an old-style Western out of it: ‘Rootin’ Tootin’ Putin. The Big Bad Bully rides into town with gang of killers!’

    “… is it possible that Russian intel knew a little something about those Ukraine labs before February 24, 2022 and became concerned that another concocted freak-of-nature pestilence might get loose there on the Eurasian frontier?”

    No, it’s NOT POSSIBLE. Anti-Social media says THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE. THAT SETTLES IT FOREVER.

    “The cartoon character Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum crowed repeatedly about what a fine opportunity Covid-19 was to smash the operating system of Western Civ in order to Build Back Better…”

    When we are children, we are taught that a man in a red suit named Santa Claus who delivers toys to all the good people of the World. Those of us who choose to grow up as adults throw off the childhood fantasy of Santa Claus. But we can’t get away that easy.

    Now, we have to deal with a (purported) human named Saint Klaus in a politically red suit promoting the toxic gift of Worldwide Communism. Santa Klaus… the deliverer of death, misery, bankruptcy, and social reordering to the Whole World to all the good and bad and in-between people of the World.

    “Yes, life in the early twenty-first century looks more and more like a bad horror movie.”

    The problem with this ‘movie’ is that it seems to go on forever and there are no doors marked EXIT. This movie sucks, we are running out of popcorn, and more and more commercials are being inserted into the nightmarish flickering images that mesmerize and bedevil us.

    “And then, of course, there is Dr. Fauci, missing in action lately.”

    He’s not missing. He took his down elevator to meet with his boss, The Devil. He’ll be back soon with his next con and faux-academic song-and-dance to promote the Dark Forces he works for. Come back, Doc! We miss you! Let’s see that arrogant smirk!

    “America has gazed into the abyss and apparently decided to sign a lease and move in.”

    For years, people have worried that a place like California would one day just slip and disappear into the Sea. Little did we realize that the entire World would slip into the lower regions of darkness and despair like Atlantis did.

    Hey, it’s getting dark in here. Can SOMEBODY FIND THE LIGHT SWITCH?

    • Jarek March 11, 2022 at 1:32 pm #

      Yup, nope. Libertarianism is a mind virus just like Communism or Feminism. An easy answer that explains everything and thus gets almost everything wrong.

      In the dance between public and private, the public sphere must lead, you know, the elected officials who have taken an oath to serve the people, not unelected corporate stooges and their Banker masters.

      Government did not stay in control and thus the Corporations and Banks took over from behind the scenes.

      Klaus Schwab is a Capitalist. They fund Communism – for us. Get it? It’s one system and always has been. Who supports BLM? Who funded the Communist Revolutions? It takes a lot of money to overthrow nations. Peasants with pitchforks and workers with hammers aren’t going to get anywhere on their own.

            The Chinese have an incredible sense of being a people and thus have a very strong nation. Don’t let Thorpe confuse you.

            China is the Domination of the Han. Some of the minorities don’t like it. And even some of the peoples who have been assimilated into “Handom” may have their regrets. But all in all, very strong, much stronger than Russia in that sense. We don’t even rate in comparison.

            Our Political Correctness, our homegrown form of Communism, has taken elements of Maoism into itself. That’s a valid point of course.

    The TSA has extended it’s face mask “requirements”, the ones that flight attendants love to tell people are federal law.

    Laws are made by people we vote for.

    What gave the Transportation Security Administration the authority to order anyone to wear a diaper on their face, on a plane or anywhere?

    They must have gotten confused, and the think that it’s the other kind of security they are supposed to provide, the Linus and his blankie kind of security, that comes from knowing the two year old across the aisle can’t breathe very well due to the silly rag over his nose.

    As it turns out, many Americans are really afraid of babies breathing around them.

    • Disaffected March 11, 2022 at 4:37 pm #

      Lots of voluntary maskers still here locally. I laugh and shake my head at the lunacy. See the funny people in their masks. Whatever IS their problem? Are they facially deformed and embarrassed? Fear rules the world.

      • Islander March 11, 2022 at 6:22 pm #

        Here, too.
        Also, signs that say “Wearing a Mask Is Now Voluntary.” Huh. When was this not voluntary?
        Anyone can wear a mask anytime they want. They could have done so also two years ago.

        Sort like announcing that, say, buying a chocolate bar is voluntary.

        What is the point of this? I think it is just more mind-fuck.

        Furthermore, some venues have decided to continue to impose mask mandates. Like—they know better? Yes, they do. Like the board of directors at the library. the head librarian was obviously delighted to be able to tell me to put on my mask. I was the ONLY person in the library besides her and the desk person.

        It is really crazy. Obviously, many people are permanently mentally scarred.

        • Blackbird March 11, 2022 at 9:42 pm #

          I kinda miss the mask mandates – but I know dear Gretchen will bring them back once she wins re-election – by a landslide! – this November. I used to be able to make faces at people without getting caught. Now I mistakenly assume that someone wearing a mask won’t see me making faces at them. Oops…

      • SpeedyBB March 13, 2022 at 7:44 am #

        Dis, having lived in a majority-Muslim country for three decades I have come to realize that the face covering offers a sense of power, protection, impassivity. I can see you and your expression but you can’t tell what I’m thinking.

        I just paced an on-line order for a “niqab for children” at the request of the six-year-old living here. She seemed excited about it. No force or influence involved.

    All major Black Civil Rights figures and organizations supported him, meaning they share his narcissism and racism. Let’s not bandy the issue: Every fake hate crime by Blacks is a real hate crime against Whites.

    Jussie the Liar cried out his innocence as he was taken away. And that he will not kill himself, lol. Blacks have a very low rate of suicide btw, but a very high rate of homicide. Interesting, no?

    Both Russia and China see the West as finished. They are correct. Our Elite don’t care about their own people, except to degrade them and torture them using Feminism, Racism, Islam and mass immigration in general.

    For Putin to march on Western Europe as per Catholic prophecy would INDEED be the best thing for Western Europe. This culture of degeneracy needs to be overthrown and the Vatican, cleansed of all who inhabit it. Neutral Switzerland isn’t neutral if it allows these Bankers any refuge.

          Your own “whites” are not working against you, they are working for themselves.

          In my very early twenties, my friend had his chum from Phillips Exeter out for a visit.

          He was in the family business, my friend was not. At all. He left his family’s business and headed west. He was the youngest and all.

          At a dinner party “the friend” determined that neither my friend, nor I , offered him anything beyond conviviality.

          So he worked the room.
          At the end of the evening he could not stop gushing about two Japanese Peruvian brothers who set up shop in SoCal. A real opportunity. They were going to meet up for more talks back east.

          The highlight of his trip.
          It was my real Nick Carraway moment. Their lives, alliances, networks, values and so on are so vastly different.

        Sometimes bad things happen to bad people.
        Sometimes bad people suffer from injustice and malevolence.

        Many times, the people who you assume are good, are far from it.

        Well, I think Putin is a great guy.

        And of course, intel.

        That is what people do not get, no matter how often it is explained to them by qualified analysts such as Scott Ritter.

    • cowbell81 March 11, 2022 at 4:08 pm #

      Wow, to think that Biden is not the one responsible for gas price increases, and all the inflation that is occurring today, is outright lunacy. The latest numbers that prove inflation were last collected BEFORE the Russian military operation even got underway. Gas prices were quickly increasing BEFORE the Russian operations as well.

      Everything that is wrong with our country today is a direct and proximate cause of Biden sitting in the White House enjoying his ice cream cones in front of the latest Teletubby reruns.

      Everything about the Biden “presidency” is a joke and a sham, inflicted on the American people. Remember all the backlogs in our shipping ports, and they did nothing about it. The fact that nothing of worth is manufactured in the US because we have been sold out by Biden and his ilk during his illustrious career as a “public servant”. The fact that anything good enacted by the Trump Administration was overturned on day one by the Biden regime, regardless of how good the policy may have been, solely because it had Trump’s DNA on it was extremely short sighted. Now they are pandering to other State run terrorist organizations in the hopes to get more oil.

      Biden does not care about you, he does not care about me, he does not care about the American people. He is a disgrace to our country and what used to be a hallowed institution: The Executive Office of the American Presidency.

      • cowbell81 March 11, 2022 at 4:15 pm #

        Not to mention all of the money the Fed is pumping out hand over fist and shooting it throughout American like a t-shirt gun at a sporting event. Money chases money and leads to runaway inflation, much like we are seeing today. Old Joey must have missed out on a few key lectures during his Econ 101 classes. Biden and his handlers really need to get a better grasp of basic economic policy.

        • Disaffected March 11, 2022 at 4:24 pm #

          They know what they’re doing, alright. Inflation actually stimulates economic activity. As spiraling prices make your money worth less and less, the only reasonable response is to spend it as fast as you can while you can still get something of value in return.

          • tucsonspur March 11, 2022 at 5:11 pm #

        Shutting down the Keystone Pipeline “On day one” is not a good look for Biden and the Democrats. Neither is Energy Sec. Granholm’s stated goal to “End America’s reliance on oil”. Here we have an Energy Secretary who sees it as her mission to choke off US energy supply. Republicans will be hammering on this from now until next November.

        • cowbell81 March 11, 2022 at 4:43 pm #

          Exactly, we have an Energy Secretary that does not want to work on the energy crisis, we have a Transportation Secretary that does not want to work on the transportation crisis, we have a Secretary of Education that does not want to work on the education crisis in our schools, we have a Secretary of State that does not want to work on the international crises.

      “The most telling thing in this Friday’s rancid diatribe is the bio-labs in Ukraine schtick – these are all Soviet era facilities, being dealt with under an international agreement signed in 2005 […]”

      Is that why the US claimed they didn’t exist?

      UKC News was very good yesterday on Ukraine.

      https://www.ukcolumn.org/video/uk-column-news-11th-march-2022

      I’m only at the first half hour, near the end of which you can see Nancy Pelosi looking as if she has advanced dementia. As they said, No. 3 in line to be in charge of the US. Frightening.

      I don’t care for Putin myself, but I recall we were taken into a war many miles away because of non-existent WMD, which has been conveniently forgotten, as has the Cuban Missile Crisis, by the people desperate for the Ukraine war to escalate.

          How do you know it’s ‘Russian disinformation’, when we know from Fauci’s own emails that he was funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan, after lying to Congress by saying that he wasn’t? If we know the US was funding bioweapons research in Wuhan, perhaps it’s up to you to provide actual proof that they haven’t been funding it in Ukraine? You say it as if it was a ludicrous notion that they would be doing in Ukraine what we know they were doing in Wuhan.

      Putin’s not a nice person at all, Red. He just happens to be right in this situation. He is behaving how America would behave if the Russkies were fooling around in Mexico, central and south America and the Caribbean. It’s not being a fan of Putin to ask why Nato is today double its size since the end of the Cold War. Neither is it being a Putin fanboy to acknowledge that Russia has a right to be peed off by the illegal overthrow of the pro-Russian government in Ukraine in 2014, by the declaration at the 2008 Nato Summit that Ukraine and Georgia would be joining Nato whatever Russia thought, and by the west’s ignoring of the Minsk Declaration that gave autonomy to the Russian speaking areas of Ukraine. Putin has repeatedly said that Ukraine joining Nato and accepting Western arms, logistics and biological warfare technology would lead to war. Finally, I would like to assume in the interests of fairness that you were just as angry when America invaded or overthrew governments in: Panama, El Salvador, Chile, Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Haiti, Grenada and sundry other nations.

    Let’s not forget that Putin is a tyrant who murders his opposition. An easy search discloses numerous deaths attributed to him, attributions that are most likely accurate.

    He brazenly had Nemtsov popped just yards from the Kremlin. Putin took ‘personal control’ of the investigation.

    My wife got the Pfizer booster in mid November and has been ill ever since Christmas, which included a hospital stay. She was dianosed with pneumonia, mononucleosis and iron-defciency anemia. The doctors at the local university research hospital told us her condition was most likely caused by the booster, which overtaxed her immune system. They said the boosters should not have been given so soon after the initial vaccinations and that the government was warned about this and did it anyway. She is slowly getting better but has a ways to go.
    We are older and had some medical conditions that increased our Covid risk.so we consented to the vaccines.
    Damned if you do; damned if you don’t!

    But then not uncommonly it seems to me that I am not as hard on Americans, as Americans are hard on Americans.

    This is a country that covers 4 time zones , excluding Alaska , Hawaii , and other overseas possessions,

    and yet has had only two viable political parties for 100+ years.

    So I very much doubt the state of affairs in Washington DC has anything to do with stupidity , laziness , corruption, or whatever , on the part of the average American Joe.

    The simple answer to the ” mystery ” is that you never had any such choice to being with.

    This should be blatantly obvious in foreign affairs too.

    With the exception of Germany and Japan — except they weren’t exceptions , they were already well-to-do countries with their ducks in a row . The significance of your Marshall Plan was grossly overblown , we largely rebuilt our countries ourselves —

    — the United States has not spread democracy around the world , it has spread misery , death and dictatorship around the world.

      Can your average American tell the difference between a Mexican and an Arab ?

      I doubt it.

      And , OK , the twin towers hit was pretty impressive , but writing a hit song one after another isn’t a practical proposition.

      So how about for an encour you blow up a dozen post offices in rural towns that don’t even have a stop light.

      This would be easier than killing kids.

    Christopher Tolkien defends his father’s work against the charge of “escapism”. Why shouldn’t the prisoner of the primary (so called – Jarek) world not escape to the fantasy worlds? The critics conflate the escape of the prisoner with the flight of the deserter because they don’t think the prisoner has the right to escape.

      Lol ,

      Last night I went looking for M – 24 Hind gunship videos.

      Grrr , I had to wade past the thousands of , ” Ukrainian’s shoot down Hind gunships ” videos .

      I hate to break it to them , but I’m already wise to that shit.

      Remember the Soviet – Afghan war ?

      The story was the Americans with their super high – tech kicked the Soviets out of Afghanistan because they were shooting down the Hind gunships right and left with their super duper Stinger missiles.

      Bullshit , the Soviets pulled out of Afghanistan because they were broke , and because , like the United States , they never really gave a fuck about Afghanistan to begin with.

      NOTE : IT’S A BAD IDEA TO GO TO WAR WHEN YOU DON’T REALLY GIVE A FUCK — Sun Tzu , The Art of War , 2500 BC.

      Anyway , after finally finding and watching a decent Hind gunship video ,

      I decided to watch a video of Russian tanks fucking shit up.

      So , seriously, I literally typed in ;

      ” Russian tanks fucking shit up. ”

      Guess what the Results were ?

      Thousands of ,

      ” Ukrainians ambush Russian tanks ”

      ” Ukrainians destroy Russian tanks. ”

      ” Russian tanks retreat from Lesbian Ukrainian girl scouts ”

      Granted , there were the , ” World of Tanks ” videos . Even the narrative must not interfere with commerce !

      And deviants with money who want to play with tanks not uncommonly want to play with Nazi and Russian tanks , like it or not.

      Their aircraft losses were minimal.

            My lot borders on a main thoroughfare in our humble little burg. Actually, the small corner lot bordering the road proper belongs to the city, but I maintain it. As such, I think it would make a wonderful parking spot for a tank with the barrel facing down traffic. To keep the cops happy we could put a digital speed monitor on it to further intimidate the speeders, who really like to get up a head steam on this particular stretch. I wonder if any of that would be tax deductible? I doubt the make and model would be all that important.

      I’m with you on things like that. I don’t take stability for granted. If someone starts to hate on me, I don’t pretend it’s not happening no matter who they are or how much history we have

      Each night we do an update. Things are reevaluated, deleted, etc. We wake up slightly different. Maybe one night you go into the other person’s red column, now a liability. Who knows why, might be a real, objective reason or something very personal for them that you’ll never get to know. The real tragedy is if that person is the one next to you in bed, especially if you’re a man married to her.

      Not always hatred of course, might just be disinterest or indifference. Life is a journey. People travel together for a time and then diverge. Best to make it easy for them and be able to let go gracefully.

    Kiev to Moscow a distance of only 470 miles; Putin could drive to Kiev in a single day, including a detour to Karkhov for a brief lunch followed a few shots of Vodka. Sufficiently primed, he rolls into Kiev like a conqueror.

    Republicans still talking about establishing a no-fly -zone over Ukraine. How would that work? Say a French Mirage Jet shot down a Russian transport helo, killing the crew and 25 soldiers? Russian Navy ships deployed in the Med and Black Sea then lob a few cruise missile equivalents into Marseilles, Nice or even Paris. Then it would be on.

    John Harrar, a senior, plays for Penn State. He is a 6’9” Power Forward, strong, determined and skilled at his position. For some reason the talking heads don’t pronounce the last r in his name. Rather, they say Harrah like the resort in Atlantic City. I can’t say exactly WHY this bothers me but it does.

    So anyway, I enjoy the hell out of watching Harrar do his thing. I have learned a lot about basketball just by isolating my attention on him. You realize that these players are not just running around haphazardly. There is method to the seeming madness.

    Harrar is in no way a “hot dog” as so many sports figures are. He says of himself, “I’m gritty not pretty,” speaking of which, he has an unusual facial bone structure and mouth. While playing you almost never see his teeth. No smiling. His mouth is just a hole in the front of his face… sort of a pie hole.

    Harrar’s chore last night was to guard the Goliath, Zach Edey, of Purdue who is an incredible 7’4” tall. Edey is a Chinese Canadian from Toronto. There must be something in the water up there.

    Penn State lost by 8 points to higher ranked Purdue.

    A Peter update:

    The shit never ends with Peter. How could a person live 75 years and NOT acquire knowledge of the simplest and most common things in life? Every day my wife or I retrieve the mail and look through it for anything addressed to Peter. We want to make sure that if anything is important he doesn’t get his hands on it before we do since there is a high likelihood it will be lost or destroyed.

    A pension check attributable to the working career of Peter’s deceased wife, Darlene, arrives the 1st of each month. Normally we wouldn’t let this check out of our sight but we fucked up and Peter took the envelop to the third floor. Day after day I would ask my wife, “did you get that check back from Peter and deposit it yet?” and she would say “no, thanks for reminding me, I’ve got to do that.” Eleven days went by, out of sight out of mind, then Peter appeared in the kitchen with the envelop and check. Instead of tearing the check off the document at the perforations Peter picked up a pair of scissors and cut the check off, eliminating the all-important routing number and account number. My wife taped it back together and tried to deposit it. The clerk wouldn’t accept it and said “try depositing it in the ATM and see what happens.” I later went on-line and saw that there was an item for $634 in “credit pending” status.

      William Burroughs felt the same way about his son. Even when he worked, he would often lose his paychecks. A hopeless drunk, he ruined his liver before age forty – that takes real dedication.

      He was an ordinary guy whose father had killed his mother by mistake. He went to live with “Bill” in Morocco – an alien environment of queers and their dark skinned boys. Not good for him, but of course nothing was going to really help.

        William Burroughs, jr. himself killed somebody. He was living in Florida with his grandparents (William Srs parents, where Bill had dumped him) and he shot a friend while f#kkng around with a rifle. That’s why he was sent to Morocco, where he was molested by William’s effete homosexual friends.

        That’s a heartwarming Beat Generation story, huh?

            Hey, thwack

            Check this out:

            https://www.facebook.com/petedking/posts/10222953837569307?from_close_friend=1

            In NZ’s case, yes – currently, Omicron is ripping its way through the population. However, the vaccination rate is 93% of eligible adults. Current infections are totaling 290,000 as of yesterday. Deaths to date this last month (when Omicron got loose) – 63.

            The vaccination has meant way fewer deaths, waaaaaayyyy fewer hospitalizations, and a public health system that has a chance of coping with this wave.

            The NZ government’s strategy was to:

            > basically keep the original COVID out for almost 2 years, then
            > manage the Delta onslaught effectively
            > prepare as best it could for Omicron.

            Successfully.

            The naïve trope that “the vaccine doesn’t work because you can still get Covid” is like saying “road rules don’t work because you can still get into a car smash”.

    Huh, it looks like most of the pipelines carry natgas from Russia thru Ukraine and into central and western Europe are still operable. What’s more, both Ukrainian and Russian crews are servicing and maintaining the rather elaborate and delicate infrastructure. I would think in an all out war on western civilization — as Putin is being accused of waging — the first thing he would knock out is the west’s energy supply — but what do I know, really? I wonder how the EU is paying for Russian gas and petroleum, what with the Swift international banking system suspended?

    China or India don’t seem to be troubled by sanctions on Russia as both countries are stepping up to buy all the energy resources Russia can provide — and at discount prices. Something tells me we’re not getting the whole story on this so called Russian invasion.

      Money lines:

      In regards to of the so called “liberal international order”, Putin and Russia have truly crossed the Rubicon with this war. Russia has set itself on a course, on no uncertain terms, to overthrow the existing international order. The moment Russian forces crossed the Ukrainian frontiers there was no turning back.

      Yet this is not a bad thing, in fact I think this a great thing and anyone who looked upon the prospect of the “End of History” with dismay should rejoice. I cannot imagine a world more boring, more meaningless than one at the end of history. There would be nothing worse than to live in boring times, fated to be the “last men” that Nietzsche wrote of, concerned with merely safety and comfort, and not with anything truly great.

      What has existed in the West since at least the mid-20th century is a world without heroes and without heroism. Instead the most base human instincts are increasingly held up and celebrated as the ideal. Fortunately this period is coming to an end. What Russia has done is to help birth a new world historical epoch. And thanks to the sheer audacity of the Russian leadership the so called “end of history” will come to be regarded as nothing but a bad joke.

    Oh look, the goal posts move. After finding out that most of the powerful people in Ukraine are Jewish, the narratives fall apart. The conflict is no longer about a heroic Putin placing himself on the line for the safety of the poor victims of Nazis. Shooting civilians twelve hours by car from Dombass and its supposed victims will have that effect on a narrative. But wait, don’t worry. Where one narrative fails, there is always another. We now know Putin is heroically saving people from evil western bioweapons labs. The beloved Czar is doing so by shelling apartment complexes and other civilian buildings. I’m guessing the residents of Mariupol must be infected with something pretty bad to justify his forced quarantine of the entire city. I hope Dustin Hoffman finds that monkey soon.

        We have a multi-faceted battle going on in the world.

        The vast of characters,

        The Globalists. WEF, UN, WHO, EU, maybe China? Anti nationals, not out of the goodness of their hearts, but because they want the power.

        The US contingent of the Globalists AKA the Deep State. Not just Democrats either. They sense the independent Nationalists, America First, led primarily by Trump, but they are definitely tools of the Globalists.

        The Nationalists. In the US, the Deplorables, the Trumpers. However, The Putin gang are Nationalists, and second in line as targets for the Globalists. Are CCP nationalists or do they smell world conquest by associating with the Gobalists.

        Is Ukraine a victim of the Globalist, NATO, EU group? Did they push one step too far? Is the current war between Globalists and a Nationalist Russia? If the Russians start to win decisively, and they are , does the Leftist Deep State push us into war to support the Deep State’s global aims.

        Does that push us into Balkanization as the US Nationalists simply say, “No thanks?”

          Well remember, forms can morph into other forms. Communism, being unnatural, can become Monarchy (North Korea), Fascism (Russia), or National Socialism (China).

          If a son inherits his father’s energy, he may turn a successful mom and pop store into an corporate empire. Putin longs for Empire according to some. He may desire to turn his Nationalism into something bigger. The Soviet Union got smaller and became the Russian Federation. And the color revolution against Belarus brought it back even more firmly into the fold.

          China has global ambitions. It’s often been an Empire after all – for thousands of years. But it has determined that we are not good partners for this endeavor. In Russia, it has found a better one – one nearby and with abundant resources. It wants to be a sea power. And Russia is a land power. Good combo.

    “Since Putin ordered Russian troops to invade Ukraine last month, Western powers, including the UK, have been announcing various lists of sanctions against the Russian President and his connections. Since then, fears have arisen that the Kremlin will retaliate by launching a series of hostile malware and cyber attacks, particularly targeted at the UK.”

    The Russian/Ukraine conflict is spilling over here. Nearby New Britain has a large eastern european population (which has kept the city civilized, unlike other Ct cities with a different demographic) The largest segment is of Polish heritage, and they seem to be sliding with Ukraine. Restaurants, bars, bakeries, travel agencies and so on have been holding fund raisers to support Ukrainian refugees, and some of those businesses have been vandalized over the past several nights, presumably by Russia backers. It seems to be breaking down like this: Western Ukrainian/Polish Catholics vs. E Ukrainian/Russian Orthodox members. Myself, I can’t tell them apart. I go to bakeries, butcher shops and restaurants down in ‘Little Poland’, but in Little Poland there are also signs in Russian. So this has a religious aspect ontop of everything else. Also a Lutheran Church, a Synagogue and a Catholic Church was set on fire 2 night ago but the arsonist appears to be a Club Member with no real motive except he likes starting fires, and since he’s under arrest there’s nothing to worry about from that quarter.

    Kamala thinks Ukraine is already in NATO.

    RT

    US Vice President Kamala Harris has said that, by fighting Russia, Ukraine is defending the US-led NATO alliance in an apparent gaffe.

    In a speech to the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) winter meeting in Washington, DC on Saturday, Harris argued that Russia’s offensive in Ukraine “threatens not just Ukraine’s democracy” but “democracy and security across Europe,” as well as overseas.

    “The ocean that separates us will not leave us untouched by this aggression,” Harris claimed, before seemingly suggesting that Ukraine is doing NATO’s bidding.

    “So I will say what I know we all say, and I will say over and over again: The United States stands firmly with the Ukrainian people in defense of the NATO alliance,” she said.

    However, the transcript of the speech released by the White House suggested that Harris misspoke with “and” being added before “in defense of the NATO alliance.”

    “The United States stands firmly with the Ukrainian people and in defense of the NATO Alliance,” the transcript reads.

    Jarek: Someone (probably Obama) really hates America to put this gibbering fake Black, fake American (she grew up in Canada) in charge of foreign policy during a lead up to possible nuclear war.

    Or is it just utter incomparable incompetence to put this incompetent in charge? I mean making her “border czar” is hilarious, in a funny sad way. But this is serious! Nobody knows because nobody knows who is really in charge – if anybody!

    The heavy handed moralism, willing to start a nuclear war because of crying Ukie women and kids, meanwhile ignoring other wars (as indeed they should). Does a nation this unstable, which engages in chick think, be allowed to be the world’s reserve currency?

    Not for very much longer.

    RT
    With Russia now officially cut off from both the US dollar and the euro, the state-owned VTB Bank has offered its clientele the opportunity to open Chinese yuan savings accounts that yield a maximum interest rate of 8%. The country’s second-biggest bank has been hit by the Western sanctions aimed at the total financial isolation of Russia over its war in Ukraine.

    “In light of the rising dollar and euro exchange rates, many clients are showing interest in investing in other currencies, and the yuan is one of the most affordable and promising options for investing funds,” the bank said in a statement.

    Existing customers are reportedly able to open deposits remotely on VTB Online with a minimum amount of 100 yuan ($16). At VTB branches, they can deposit a minimum of 500 yuan.

    According to the bank, the latest offer will be the most profitable alternative to deposits in other foreign currencies. The annual yield on a three-month deposit is 8% in dollars and 7% in euros.

    “Some Russian banks can’t get access to other currencies, so yuan is probably the best other alternative,” Khoon Goh, head of Asia research at the Australia & New Zealand Banking Group, told Bloomberg.

    “Still, the easiest way for Russia to raise yuan would be to receive yuan via trades. Russian banks’ clients who are exporters could sell to China and receive renminbi as payment.”

    This is a proxy war, just like Franco in the 30s. Superpowers trying their weapons on each other to see who is best.

    The US government is using the Ukrainians, actually sacrificing the Ukrainians to advance their globalist aims against victim #2, Russia. The WEF, et al are not happy right now as the Russians are winning against the proxy.

    One good ending to this could be a Russian victory and a Nationalist electoral victory in the US. That would set the WEF back on their heels a tad.

    I have total sympathy for the Ukrainian people, being used as pawns by the globalists led by Biden and the US government. Putin told NATO in 2014 that Ukraine was a red line. Unlike US presidents, Putin keeps his word.

      I see a parallel with Poland. The Poles got very arrogant, began abusing and killing German citizens in the occupied German lands they had been given by the victorious Allied power after WW1. The arrogant Poles trusted in their worthless treaty with Britain, which never had any intention of saving them with the bill came due.

      Just as the Ukrainians hoped NATO (basically the United States) would save them from the Russian wrath after years of persecuting ethnic Russians.

    A different perspective. The Ukrainians are losing ground but winning the numbers game. The media says 200,000 Russian troops in Ukraine, 70% of its offensive force. This guy says 250,000, half of its overall force. In either case, they don’t have the numbers to take it without getting really brutal. Going into the big cities is going to a bloodbath for both sides, but the Ukrainians can take the losses far more. Defense always has the advantage in the casualty game.

    Given their will to fight, if the Russians take it, can they hold it? Especially if they take it with mass bombing as the Allies inflicted on Germany?

    Long range radar seems very effective, with NATO giving the Ukrainians information about where to strike. Many of the Russian missiles today where shot down but enough got through to do the job.

    Maybe Russia should have stopped at the Dnieper, letting Western Ukraine join NATO, with mixed ethnic, eastern part as the buffer zone.

    I’m amazed at the smallness of Russia’s army. Obviously not an offensive power at all. Stalin’s was 46 times bigger.

    • Disaffected March 13, 2022 at 5:53 pm #

      Just like their civilian corporate counterparts, modern armies leverage modern technologies, so they don’t need nearly the number of men. Plus, I doubt the Russian army has nearly the admin and logistical tale as the US and NATO. Their strategy, by all reliable accounts I’ve read, is to surround, squeeze, and starve the big cities in order to somewhat minimize civilian casualties, although that’s a somewhat risky proposition as well, given the homicidal maniacs they’re rooting out. Should NATO stupidly come riding in on their white horses I have no doubt Putin will pull out the heavy weaponry, as he has no choice. This war is a hobby for Zelensky and NATO; it’s existential for Russia and likely all of us as well. I shudder to think what will happen if the Globalists were somehow to triumph here.

    Three basketball anecdotes:

    1. It seems hardly a minute goes by that a dude named Murray on Iowa isn’t scoring or on the foul line for an extra point. The guy is everywhere. Then I realized Iowa’s roster has a pair of identical twins and they both have the same first initial (K). That explains why the back of both their shirts just says Murray.

    2. Imagine you are 7’4” tall and weigh 295 lbs and you have to lug all that size up and down, up and down the court. It gets exhausting so the Purdue coach has to pull him (Zach Edey) out frequently for a rest. When the giant is pulled out he is replaced with a big Black dude with the last name of Williams. If Purdue wins this Big 10 Conference Championship (we are in the second half of the game as we speak) all credit will go to Williams since he blesses himself (sign of the cross) before each foul shot like many players did back in the day. Now, Williams is the only one. He calls on the Lord to make his free throws go in and they usually do.

    3. I have been remiss in not mentioning the female role in these men’s basketball games. Those would be the cheer leaders with the lovely bodies, long hair and perpetual perfect teeth smiles. A more narcissistic group of individuals you will never find other than Donald Trump.

        I’m OK with the basket where it is. I just wish the refs would call all the “traveling” (used to be called “walking”), palming the ball, fouling (gross body contact), 3 seconds in the paint violations (read how complex these time in the paint rules are) and failures to inbound the ball and bring it up past the half court line in 10 seconds. Uncalled violations of these rules happen a couple hundred times a game… minimum.

      I wonder what their crimes were.

      Wish we could send Fauci and Co. over there for some simple justice.

      Maybe that is why Fauci has gone silent.

      • anmariwakaranai March 13, 2022 at 10:13 pm #

        Their crimes were terrorism ?, leaving to fight in an insurgencey, (Syria), and theft or fraud I believe for the higher ups who dipped into the palace fund, (which is encouraged), and then fell foul.

    This adoration for Putin is getting really serious around here. It’s a much broader question than whether or not the US has the not-unexpected clay feet or whether or not the Ukrainian political body is Nazi (it isn’t – they’re mostly Jews, FFS).

    “We are at an inflection point. The rise of global oligarchs and the internet, which enables those oligarchs to spread disinformation, has made significant numbers of American voters once again slide away from democracy to embrace the idea that the country would work better with a few leaders making the rules for the rest of us. In nineteen states, Republican-dominated legislatures have passed laws that restrict the vote and entrench minority rule, even up to allowing state legislatures to overturn election results. If that is permitted to stand, that minority can choose our president, and it is increasingly backing one single man, one individual, to rule over the rest of us.

    If history is any guide, we are at the point when voters of all parties must push back, to say that we do, in fact, believe in the principles stated in the Declaration of Independence, that all people are created equal, and that our government is legitimate only if we have a say in it.” (HCR)

          Calling someone “Asshole” is hardly a ‘tongue deft and sharp’.

          JHK’s highly simplistic response ignored several layers of fact. I can’t be bothered correcting him…it’s pointless now that he’s gone down the Conspiracy Rabbit Hole with the rest of you.

          Hey, JHK, do you remember your days of sanity? When you were “allergic to conspiracy theories”? Wasn’t life simpler then, when you spent your time thinking and expounding on actual real issues – resource depletion and built environment issues – rather than now, when every waking moment is consumed with the futile rage against things – real or imaginary – and culture war bullshit? You can come back from it, but in order to do so, you need to stop reading this comments section. Look waht it’s done to Green Alba…

You’ve already made up your mind that the current US administration is “a communist plot” (or some such bullshit) and having decided that, everything you see and read confirms your bias.

        I got an email from ActBlue (or whoever) today with a horribly leading survey frothing with vitriol about Trump. So that’s happening already. The funniest part of the survey was, it gave a list of things they accuse Trump of, and ask you to tell them which one you hate most! And they try to build up Jo Jo Magoo’s ‘accomplishments’ (I had to bust out laughing). Imagine being so ignorant that you buy all this?

        And yep, there were all sorts of warnings that we need to stop free speech in order to stop TRUMP. They also hilariously instilled fear that the next election could be RIGGED in Trump’s favor, if I don’t give them money!

        I marked it as SPAM.

          I cannot, with any imagination, comprehend how this country, split 50 -50 between people supporting Trump and people supporting Biden’s crew can ever reunite into one people again. For one thing, with the narrowness of the vote galleys, there will no longer be an honest election, there is too much at stake and too much consequent corruption.

        How are Florida, Texas, Arizona, and so on and on NOT restricting the vote?

        These “Voter Protection Acts” are nothing but a blatant exercise in excluding the poor, the working class, and people not blessed with being white.

        Please, show me the evidence of how many dead people voted in 2020 – aside from the cases of Republican morons voting on behalf of their mothers too).

        And, by the way, no one wants to force you to be vaccinated, you fecking braying donkey. Your call, your consequences. If you’re feeling all superior right now, that’s great.

      Redneck Liberal

      In your comments about trivia, you miss the big picture.

      You complain about oligarchs, do you not notice that currently the power center of America is overwhelmingly Leftist, to the point of being Progressive socialists and violent at times Wokesters. When it comes to Woke, you forget that all ethnic groups that came into the US in the past, especially from Europe, had no support system and made it on their own. That is being duplicated well now with Asian immigrants taking care of themselves. Why do Blacks seem to have such a problem breaking away from the government? Are they perpetual “slaves” to a higher authority, allowing a political party to have perpetual power over them?

      Your “concern” over voting rights is really uninformed. There is a distinct difference between disenfranchising voters and making damn sure that one person, one vote is strictly enforced. The last election showed that many people signed affidavits witnessing large ballot discrepancies, especially with mail in ballots. These complaints were NEVER investigated adequately, being investigated in only one state, Arizona, and being severely restricted by the state. Important information, especially with the Dominion computers was withheld. The Deep State had an opportunity to show Americans and the rest of the world that there was no corruption in the electoral process by doing a thorough examination of 50 state procedures. Instead, a 100% coverup was executed by the Dem and GOP judges to shut ant investigation down. The election was a fraud, and now we are saddled by the worst president in American history and a Congress that is worthless, a legacy of Democrats.

      You say the voter changes will give us an oligarchy where one man will dominate,

      Uh, have you looked to see what we have right now? The most socialistic government ever, and the desire by the Progressive wing to make this country into a socialistic state. Everything that Biden has done is dropping the US into a gigantic maelstrom of incompetence, of negative results, of decline of American worth and values. We have inflation, right, starting a year ago. So what does the injit do? Blames it on Putin. Then he goes out and pushes the Build it Better program to spend more and more, inject more money into the money supply, and create more inflation. He is responsible for the oil downturn here, all by himself. Why? By shutting down leases and pipelines, he has told the banks, do not invest here. He is responsible for $4.50 gasoline.

      Your opinions are ignorant, you do not have a realistic clue about what is going on around you. Maybe a little American History 101, American government 101, and Econ 101, might enlighten you and make you realize what an evil empire the Deep State is creating, along with its WEF taskmasters.

    Re “Ukraine is a backwater.”

    Martin Armstrong, speaking for his Socrates computer model and its predictions, disagrees.

    https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/products_services/socrates/trying-to-figure-out-why-the-world-is-so-precise/

    Per Armstrong his Socraties AI predicted, back in 2013, that Ukraine was gong to be the center of something Big. The AI migiht have been picking up the flurry of tangoing in the preceding years concerning the EU, Gazprom, gas pricing and delivery, and internal Ukrainian politics, with its mix of far-right parties, gas politics, oligarchic influence, Israeli and Jewish influence, proximity to Russia and Belarus. Plenty for an AI to chew on.

    Those (humans) who have been following closely the events in Ukraine (and Syria) since 2013 know that (1) the Syrian and Ukraine operations were related; (2) from a geopolitical point of view and in light of the covert but significant political influence of right-wing Ukrainians in so-called Western nations (the alignment of their interests with those various national security state actors, plus American oligarchs, Ukraine was/is central, not a “backwater”; and (3) push was going to come to shove in the Ukraine one way or another—this was especially apparent since Dec. 21 (although many knowledgeable Ukr and Russia watchers were surprised when Russia hit the pinata with an actual invasion). Now more is coming to light about how this “backwater” was being used by the West, namely, the existence of biolabs near the Russian border, and it looks like the existence of a plan to mount an invasion of the Donbass in early March.

    Footnote:
    The Biden clan is deeply involved in Ukraine. A number of those who testified against Trump in the 2019(?? I’ve lost track) impeachment effort were Ukrainian assets. Fiona Hill, Vindman, and others. Hmmmm . . .

    • JohnAZ March 13, 2022 at 9:23 pm #

      One comment, Islander, just looking at the geography of Ukraine, where it is located relative to the Russian resources, and its significance to the European continent is obvious. Hitler’s Code White, I think that is right, was aimed right through Ukraine, he knew it’s value.

      The WEF, through the US and NATO, tried to bluff their way into a geopolitical advantage over Russia. In 2014, during the admission of five countries into NATO, Russia said, Enough, no more, Ukraine is off the table.

      The bluff was called.

Look at the example of Ohama who is allegedly sick with it. But admittedly I did see where some people said Obama isn’t jabbed or anything because he got a placebo. So who knows. But if you follow what they say then he’s jabbed up and sick with covid so.

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-TahdQuZ7DJ9iSq771ev-D78HpvldCt6/view

    (That one came via Mark Crispin Miller.)

    And this one, which I found later:

    https://absolutegeneralnews.com/marianna-podgurskaya-instagram-who-is-injured-pregnant-woman/

    So, she’s an actress – although she was definitely pregnant. And just because she’s an actress doesn’t mean she wasn’t in the clinic for genuine reasons, of course … but, the questions in the first article still apply.

    And now, it appears she’s either dead or ‘dead’.

    https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/pregnant-woman-whose-rescue-from-bombed-hospital-became-emblematic-of-the-war-in-ukraine-dies-with-baby/ar-AAV1d4Y

        Could be!

        Interestingly, this last article, the one that says she died, claims that “‘her hip was crushed and her pelvis detached’, surgeon Timur Marin discovered.'”

        But in the first article she’s photographed walking unaided out of the clinic. Although she seems to be two different women. 🙂
