The hijinks playing out in financial markets instruct us that politics finally comes back to the soundness of our economic arrangements, no matter how far out into the asteroid belt of psychopathic ideology the nation veers. For instance, we’re about to find out how little race-and-gender hustling actually matters to the common good of this land. After their successful prank with GameStop, the subreddit vigilantes are aiming to send the price of silver to the silvery moon now, and, in the process, drive hedge-fund privateers and bankster short-sellers into insolvency, even if it wrecks the financial system.
Do you doubt that the system, led by the clueless and feckless Federal Reserve, was already beating a path to financial suicide? Two decades of trying to paper over America’s broken business model with money-from-nowhere, and failure of the authorities to regulate the games being played around that, switched off the price-discovery mechanism of markets. Does that sound abstruse? I’ll explain. Price-discovery is the main function of markets: to send correct signals as to the true price of everything, soybeans, iron ore, stocks, what-have-you, and, most importantly, the exact price of money itself, borrowed over a period of time: that is, term interest rates, meaning the cost of debt.
The price of silver (and of gold, too) have been among the most manipulated, suppressed, and perverted for many years because the rising price against paper currencies would signal the falling value of money, which would inform the people that their standard-of-living is falling — and nothing stirs up political anger like that. So, the regulatory authorities looked the other way when their cronies in big banks such as J.P. Morgan played games to suppress precious metal prices with a revolving short-selling scheme that regularly knocked down the price to discourage buyers from investing in precious metals.
It’s been fifty years since precious metals enjoyed any official peg with the US dollar, but for five thousand years previously gold and silver were money itself and paper currencies became mere representations of that money. That relationship ended in 1971 when President Nixon closed the “window” that allowed foreign countries to redeem gold in exchange for dollars they accumulated from the commercial trade of goods — and, our dollar being the world’s supreme reserve currency, the rest of the world’s currencies followed.
Despite all efforts since then by banking authorities to denigrate the value and the role of gold and silver in financial affairs, the “barbarous relics” retained a persistent influence in men’s minds because of their intrinsic qualities. These were: the vested energy they represented from mining and refining, their physical durability, portability, and divisibility, their freedom from counterparty obligations, and, especially in modern times, their vital usefulness in electronics and other industrial applications. The latter quality is greatly reinforced by the powerful wish to transition from a fossil fuel economy to an alt-energy economy of solar cells and wind turbines — a wish that probably won’t come true.
And so, as promised by the subreddit vigilantes, the silver price was up around $3 or ten percent in overnight trading going into the week’s Monday open. It looks like they mean bidness. And that could mean many things. The most obvious is a very conscious effort to punish the high hats of Wall Street for years of lawless game-playing that made them ultra-rich and left everybody else in the country impoverished. Some of the vigilantes frankly express the desire to wreck the degenerate banking system altogether, a great purge of evil to restore something like God-fearing accountability, moving toward a fresh and honest re-start of markets and banking. I’m not convinced that we would get any such orderly re-start in the sense that global banking could be reconstructed along pre-2020 lines.
Rather, wrecking the banks in a daisy-chain of shattered obligations would be an express ticket to the Palookaville of neo-medievalism I’ve been warning about, and probably in a sharp, disorderly, violent, and deadly episode of losing everything that has made us civilized. In any case, the country has already prepped itself for some kind of spectacular failure with all the social mind-fuckery of the past four years that eventuated with the empty shell of Joe Biden in the White House, and millions of his supporters swept into an epic hysteria of manufactured moral outrage over pseudo-realities initiated by academic racketeers and then weaponized by our politicians. But the game is on, whether you like it or not. This may be a last opportunity to get your minds right before you lose your country and your future.

Greetings,
At this point in time they do not dare hand out any more stimulus to the peasents because that money will be strapped on like a suicide vest and hurled at Wall St. so as to cause as much harm as possible.
These guys have had enough and know exactly what they are doing and it isn’t to profit but to harm Wall St. as much as possible and given that Wall St. backed Xiden, you can expect pushback from the White House which will do nothing but create even more Kamakazi attacks against the system.
The low IQ rioters were only able to do 2 billion in damage in their 100 days of unrest. The Autists on reddit did 70 billion in damage in a single week.
The optics and effects of no new stimmy will go over like a lead balloon with normies.
I’ve heard multiple normies crow about, “Unca Joe gon’ send us $1400 in stimmy! We’s rich!” when I’ve been out running errands the past few weeks.
Look at the optics. The new administration has been obsessed with trannies by making sure they are in the military and running the federal health department. An administration made up of woke Karens will do nothing but flail about some -ism or another while the suicide attacks against their base of power continue.
A bunch of out-of-touch boomers in Congress hiding behind the National Guard thinking that the Painted-Bison-People are out to get them are about to be digitally overrun. These dullards have no understanding of what is happening and while they talk of investigations and punishments, people are rapidly moving their wealth out of the system.
I say, good luck with financing all those gender reassignments for 8-year-olds with zero tax revenue Karen. Good luck.
I suspect that “some-ism” will be “racism”, “sexism”, “white nationalism” – most likely the whole threesome. The Establishment will do a lot more than flail. Attacks against the base of power will not go unpunished.
Please, let’s not legitimize the democrat’s coup by calling it an ‘administration.’ Rather, let’s call it what it is…
The Biden Regime.
That’s been my practice since January 20, 2021 at 12:00 noon. An unlawful usurper of power can only lead a regime, not an administration.
I like the word ‘junta’ for this situation.
?? pinyin: Bài d?ng is the current modern Mandarin Chinese rendition of Joe Biden’s name. The Mandarin pronunciation just happens to sound almost exactly like the American English pronunciation of “Buy dung?” with the high tone on that last word. Whoever the Chinese authority was that chose that name must have had a sense of humor.
The ” ‘Buy dung?’ regime” has a nice sound to it, and accurate on more than one level.
Maybe this link to Mandarin will work better, maybe not: https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=zh-TW&text=Biden&op=translate
“Please, let’s not legitimize the democrat’s coup by calling it an ‘administration.’ ”
I’m puzzled that it’s perceived as a “democrat’s coup” … all 50 states certified their election results (49 by the safe-harbor date). A majority of these states (including a majority of the critical swing states) are run by Republicans mostly, and in some cases, such as Georgia and Arizona, exclusively.
I’m very sceptical that the election was fraudulent, but if it were, it seems to me it’s less a Democrat coup, and more an anti-Trump one. And both the 2016 and 2020 elections were virtually a tie, showing how deeply divided the electorate is.
Whatever – Biden-Harris have been sworn in, and it is indeed an administration. The rule of law does apply, even if it is a bitter pill.

The establishment hacks are not necessarily dullards. They may simply be seizing an opportunity to peddle a conspiracy theory in order to advance their authoritarian ambition.
“Authoritarian ambitions” always have a reach that greatly exceeds their grasp. That is seldom obvious at their beginnings.
Don’t underestimate the trans ‘folx’ – they’ve managed to infiltrate and ruin the ACLU, the Green Party, LGB movement, Antifa and BLM (the latter 2 were already astroturfed garbage by then though). these people are relentless and driven by a level of narcissism and hate I’ve never experienced before. Obviously, they know how to take down any opposition…
Mary, aren’t they .006% of the population?
Where is their power and influence coming from?
BackRowHeckler.
Their power and influence are coming from Satan.
That is all
Daddy
@BackRowHeckler Big Pharma for one of many. Gilead donated 4 million dollars to ‘trans programs’ last year.
Learn more here: https://thefederalist.com/2018/02/20/rich-white-men-institutionalizing-transgender-ideology/
The trans-folx will be wonderful consumers for the pharmaceutical complex with a fine lifetime consumption of antidepressants and hormones, as well as other medical bills for
back and forth conversions.
Likewise their personal effects will need repeated adaptation to the new gender thereby necessitating new consumption.
In addition they are not expected to live to, or long after, retirement and are are too busy with themselves to become a problem for the state, in short: model citizens.
These people believe in the Easter Bunny. And they’re adults. SMH.
“Two decades [, actually 12+ decades] of trying to paper over America’s [or rather, the World’s] broken business model with money-from-nowhere, ”
As soon as humans can fill their cars with fuel and the grid is intact, exchanging that fuel and power with whatever printed paper – the game is on (and we’re lucky it is still)….
The problem starts when there will be no more fuel, no matter how much money is printed, and the grid goes down where one lives – god forbid.
Americans – even well-traveled ones – are blissfully unaware in general of how much of the world deals with brownouts on practically a daily basis.
Air-conditioning on demand, hot water on demand, ATMs that don’t run dry because it’s payday at the garment factory down the road, fresh produce on a regular basis – so many of the taken-for-granted aspects of life are quite chancy in much of the world.
Dmitry Orlov points out the difference very graphically. The collapse of the USSR did not have that much of an effect on much of the population as they didn’t have that far to fall: not bound to their cars, supermarkets, malls, growing much of their own food, living modestly without debt (not common in socialist paradises). Thus they made the adjustment, not without pain, but they battled their way through.
The USA? A different story.
at this point, they dare not withhold more stimulus from the ‘people’ who, generally, do not understand anything about markets. However, they do understand hundreds of dollars added to their bank accounts which have been promised by silly politicians.
If Uncle Sam doesn’t stimulate the peasants, what will they do? Suck their thumb? Poop their pants? Engage in crowd-sourced, grass-root, uprisings targeting vulnerable nodes in the System?
With JoMama now secure in the seat of power there is no advantage in pandering to “the people”.
“The low IQ rioters were only able to do 2 billion in damage in their 100 days of unrest. The Autists on reddit did 70 billion in damage in a single week.”
It’s a great quote, but does it reflect reality? Businesses burnt down meant actual assets destroyed. Businesses looted is both economic and psychological damage: how many business owners will just give up?
By contrast, a short squeeze transfers money from some people to others financially without destroying anything. The 70 billion in damage to the hedge funds is made up by the gain earned by redditors; the destruction wrought by AntiFA is just dead weight loss.
This is going to make shorts disappear, which means the next crash will have no circuit breakers. It’s going to be epic.
Don’t worry about businesses looted and burned last year; BLM leaders claim it’s just property, and insurance will cover any loss.
No big deal. We’re talking about George Floyd’s life here — St George.
Brh
You only need look at the response to see who did the most damage. The riots were allowed to continue because the optics were worth the damage. Not so last week as we saw the EXACT playbook used against Trump used against Wallstreetbets. They were called NAZI’s, Domestic Terrorists, White Supremacists. They were disenfranchised their “votes” when the exchanges shut down (by order of the White House) and they were only permitted to sell their position but not buy.
If these guys do to Silver what they did to GameStop then JP Morgan is finished. Everyone knows this and it is game on.
RE: the riots — or because some of the controlling class in the service of the color revolution wanted those areas trashed. It is very interesting to note that the businesses destroyed were small, while the big players remained largely untouched.
Same pattern with the CoronaHoax, too. Big box stores have not really been hurt at all, nor have the companies that advise them (the latter is something I know for certain). And all of this has no negative impact on the digital transition.
I notice the locally owned restaurants have been hit hard, the ones that made a big deal about food from local farms.
I also notice the JoeBama administration has hired back a Big Food guy to the USDA.
Big boxes are money printers for the tax man,
globalists, and China.
Small biz are not.
Here endeth the lesson.
According to a study by Catherine Austin Fitts (brilliant woman), the areas hit by last summer’s riots were not random. Of the 37 cities with Fed branches, 34 hosted “peaceful protests” during the summer. With apparently most damage (errr, festivity…) concentrated near these Fed offices. Fitts claims that these destroyed businesses are part of a real estate acquisition plan called “opportunity zone investments”.
Looks like BLM deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for sure!
Blackbird — very insightful. I need to look her up.
Small businesses are being surgically removed from existence by the COVID19 hoax and the Antifa/BLM scourge.
It is being done with maximum precision.
I hope J.P. Morgan collapses. Their namesake saddled us with the Federal Reserve cartel and the banksters have been robbing everyone in this country since 1914.
You make a great point – how can the Antifa/BLM riot damage be measured?
BTW, they’re still at it… now they occupied a hotel in Olympia.
THankfully, they’ve been arrested. As usual, they claim they ‘meant no harm’ as they entered the lobby with knives and bats, dressed in black, wearing masks… yeah I’m sure that didn’t panic anyone…
https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/homeless-advocates-with-group-called-oly-housing-now-occupy-olympia-hotel-seeking-pandemic-housing/VSRUF3IMCVFWNFBEMC2NJ6V3G4/
I do think it’s valiant to try to get justice for what’s happened to people to make us so impoverished. But this ain’t the way.
Doc – Shorts cannot “disappear”, otherwise there would be no market. As you well know, a market is a buyer and a seller – a long and a short. No buyers, no market. No sellers, no market.
Not a survivalist or prepper; but at times their call to store precious metals, food, and ammunition seems attractive.
Yes, it’s a good idea to be long lead.
I have a LOT of food stored up. I think it’s wise at this point.
“Not a survivalist or prepper”; well, not too late to change that!
If our overly complex economy collapses you’ll wish you had prepped when life resets to about an 1890 standard of living. It’s never too late to start. Some preps are better than no preps.
I really can’t understand how the money-changers finally getting their comeuppance would cause us to lose everything civilized. It just might be the first step in rebuilding a banking system based on the rule of law and ethics that allows investors and producers to know the real price of commodities, especially interest rates. Upon a sound financial system, civilization can be built or in our case, rebuilt.
If it goes down, will you invest in anything connected to the US government or US banks? I wouldn’t. I am already investigating ways to get out of the US markets and banks.
This country is toxic.
Yes, toxic. We can’t handle the truth, and I think that truth is the Long Emergency.
Our system is also much more delicate than most realize. If the banks go down, I think the results would be awful.
The preppers have the right idea. It’s just hard for us city-dwellers to go that route. We can save money, especially in precious metals form, as well as food and ammo as mentioned above and below. Also, CA$H, perhaps 3 – 6 months worth if possible.
Only the shorts got their comeuppance. The people who get infinite dollars pumped in were already destroying the shorts, and those people have actually been further empowered by this squeeze.
Soon there will be no one left to buy.
Well, typically when any structure is destroyed, there is chaos until a new one is built.
We have to have an actual rule of law first. Laws are now only on the books to suppress the commonality. They are selectively enforced and have been for some time. Iceland jailed their bankers.
“Laws are now only on the books to suppress the commonality.” Laws don’t matter any more. Only the interests of the oligarchy matters now.
I’ve come to the same conclusion.
I concur. The only honest money is constitutional gold and silver coinage. Period.
Everything else is designed to be manipulated to advance fraudulent schemes.
I think you readers should watch The Capitalist Conspiracy to understand what’s going on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knEFW5POV3I&t=1234s
I read opinions on opinions on what is going on.
The bottom line is that US and international money interests are running out of ways to pay their debts. This is going to lead to bankruptcy, not just for the banks and government, but for all of us.
401k. = 0
Pension = 0
Bank acct. = 0
Insurance = 0
Bonds = 0
How does your financial situation look with these entries.
Oh yeah, and you will still be paying more taxes to finance BS degrees and illegal immigrants.
What a country.
Yep John, that’s the plan.
Those illegal immigrants. They always used to tell us we should be sympathetic to their “plight”, because they were just sending their paycheck home to their families.
That was the problem, wasn’t it?
Donald Trump was the only candidate who took on this issue.
Don’t Americans bring their paychecks home to their families?
Of course, if you objected in any way to this situation, you were a racist. Mexico was a country, not a race, last time I looked.
I hear they are massing at the border right now, 65,000 strong.
Another instance — like with BLM/Antifa rioters — mask and social distancing mandates will not be enforced.
The latter is good. Reminds the drones that it is a farce.
Uh, remittances are a terrible drain on the US economy.
Remittance taxes are a huge missed opportunity to ease the tax burden on US citizens.
Too bad we don’t live in that time line.
Everything is racist to Democrats. Critical race theory demands it. And that’s one of their many new religions.
@MaryV
Indeed. And when *everything* is “racist,” *nothing* is racist. The word has lost any meaning it may have ever had. The definition of “racism” mutates faster than the Corona virus.
While I harbor no I ate animus towards persons of other races, I deeply resent this overt, vicious, and malign anti-white campaign being waged by the Marxists in our society. This campaign certainly meets anyone’s old school definition of racially motivated hate – at least as it was more commonly understood in the mid-20th Century.
The problem is that the cry of “racism” has been used effectively for decades now to advance the political agenda of the Left. As such, abuse of this terminology has intensified over time. Like anything else, if you reward the practitioners of “hate Whitey” racism enough times, you’ll simply get more and more of it and it will become more virulent and intense.
I sincerely believe we have now reached the point where cadres of genocidally minded “People of Color” are investing all of their time, money, and energy into pushing forward an intensely anti-white hate campaign whose ultimate goal is to subjugate and exterminate whites wherever they are found. Some have not even been very shy about saying as much. It chills the blood. The mindset of these people is no different than that of Heinrich Himmler and Reinhard Heydrich. They seek a “Final Solution” to the “White People Problem.”
This has become abundantly clear in 2020 and 2021. No honest person can deny this is the goal any longer.
This is what drives RECORD gun and ammo sales in America today. We refuse to be slaughtered like lambs by these maniacs.
@Wizard of the Saddle, this erudite black scholar agrees with you: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/07/dehumanizing-condescension-white-fragility/614146/
I love reading the scathing reviews of “White Fragility” (which agenda is sadly being instituted across the country by moronic college admins everywhere).
Yes we are supposed to hate ourselves for being white. They demand it. And yes, racism means nothing if we are born ‘white supremacists’ and can do nothing to change that. They shoot themselves in the foot. Nonetheless, we have to have this bullshit foisted on us.
Also, their hypocrisy is quite impressive: Nary a peep was said when Obama bragged about being the ‘deporter in chief’ and put the babies in cages (I have the pics) but when Trump came into office, they were aghast – AGHAST – at racist Trump for putting kids in cages…. these people can’t be taken seriously even a little bit.
Lol are we still playing politics instead of addressing the real problems of the country, as Mark Twain once said there isn’t a nickle worth of difference between the two parties and of course he was right, but people still play the ole party thing.!!!
Actually – I’m not. I’m pointing out hypocrisy. And while both parties are garbage, it’s the Democrats ushering in totalitarianism, with the blessings of some of the Republicans.
That’s just fact.
As it was done in other countries so it will be done to us.
First example Argentina nationalized their citizens 401k’s and borrowed heavily from them with some nominal promise of small percentage Return on the outright theft.
https://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/22/business/worldbusiness/22argentina.html
https://www.reuters.com/article/argentina-pensions/update-6-argentina-to-seize-pension-funds-markets-tank-idUSN2128838220081021
During the 2008 debacle Obama quietly floated the Idea of doing the same.
https://www.fool.com/retirement/general/2013/04/21/will-obama-really-confiscate-your-retirement-savin.aspx
Since obama ruled by poll numbers he changed his mind till his last term to mess with peoples retirement accounts and change all the rules.
Democrats goals are always to steal from some and give just a little to others while keeping the prizes for their friends and family.
As was seen with Solyndra the last drops of money stolen are always some how funneled back into the hands of the Democrats running for office.
A short squeeze on silver is a potentially a big deal. I’ve read recently that Gamestop was over sold in option contracts at a ratio of about 1.4, thus creating the squeeze. By comparison, silver bullion is over sold upwards of 180 times when comparing paper obligations to actual physical possession.
Bullion shenanigans have been going on for a long time. Now in the age of “big data” if the truth becomes fully exposed it will turn the world upside down.
So one might expect a total blackout before that can happen. Is this the week the lights (and internet) go off?
Yes, the prices of precious metals has been so egregiously manipulated by the moneychangers for so long, that pressure has built to the point that any change toward true value would be explosive and cause multiple times more damage than the manipulation of worthless companies. It would expose the real value of the dollar upon which our silly political system stands.
That’s a good point. And a scary thought. Might just be some stupid thing like a true challenge to the Grand Marketeers that would prompt the kill switch.
Yikes!
I think that you’re partially right, in that the silver ETFs are used to play a lot of games in the paper silver market, and the amount of paper silver contracts is many, many multiples of the physical quantity. However, this is not a problem for the banking cartel, I believe; they will simply change the rules and cash out the players with funny money if it comes down to a crunch.
The silver squeeze hit a speed bump in the road today. I strongly suspect a great deal of sabotage of this campaign is underway by the usual bankster suspects who perpetually manipulate and suppress the market prices of PM’s.
J.P. Morgan is far more viscous than any hedge fund. Just TRY to pump up silver and gold prices and watch what they do.
Time to rename the ‘Au’-tists the ‘Ag’-tists!
The silver play is a distraction from Game Stop. Citadel, the company with the naked shorts, has a huge stake in $SLV. The conspiracy is that Citadel is pushing the silver narrative to drive up the price of SLV and use the profit to cover their shorts in GME.
Just the messenger.
That wouldn’t surprise me in the least.
Also recall that JP Morgan is the main silver manipulator.
That’s a real power and money center.
Exactly. Surely Wall St poobahs have many more (and more effective, by multiples) number nerds on payroll than there are home-office redditors with the necessary 5D vision.
The redditors are not buying the silver.
I’m with you there. But the general public is now trying to “get in on the next big thing.” Wall St is playing this brilliantly by making it seem as if silver going up is another blow to their coffers.
I agree but I think the idea is to hold the certificates until you can demand the actual metal.
Any system that purposely immiserates an ever-greater majority of its population will inevitably reach a point at which a critical mass of its downtrodden will decide Fuck-All, and we are just about there.
Watching the mindless panic of the alpha predators who simply can’t believe that the serfs would have have the temerity to bring them down is fascinating.
Not worth the mayhem we are all about to experience, mind you, but still quite a spectacle. Might as well enjoy the show until the power goes out.
First, they ignore you. Then they laugh at you.
Then they fight you. Then you win.

As Gerald Celente, the founder of the Trends Journal likes to say: “When people lose everything and have nothing else to lose, THEY LOSE IT”.
This is just the beginning of the global train wreck. Grab some popcorn folks and enjoy the show.
Grab some metals while you’re at it. Extra cash at home. More ammo if you own a firearm. More non-perishable food.
James, why don’t you do a podcast one of these days with Gerald Celente? The guy is entertaining.
Seconded.
Gerald is a pretty consistent guest on the infowars network.
It would be interesting to hear Jim discuss things with Gerald and compare the outputs from the two podcasts.
Sortez la guillotine
Not being very well versed in econometrics, one thing that puzzles me is the moratorium states have imposed on landlords & renters, stating basically rent does not have to be paid, and no evictions can take place. Do property owners still have to make mortgage payments to the banks on these assets (which are no longer assets)? Also, apt buildings take a whole lot of maintenance to remain habitable; hows that getting paid for now? Will the places just fall apart? Will owners just walk away and let the banks take over? The whole scheme — even tho well intentioned — could end in disaster.
Brh
I haven’t followed this topic very closely, but I thought the TPTB play was to keep kicking the can down the road on rent and mortgage forbearance.
Unlike the GME short squeeze, eviction is something that affects normies and is easily understood by them.
One day, the debt needs to be paid by someone. The people holding the creditor notes is us the little guys. We own the national debt, lock, stock and barrel. These cretins are messing with our money.
And that’s where Klaus Schwab comes in because part of his “Build Back Better” i.e. Great Reset which is eliminating all debt but then no one owns nothing.
Schwab’s World Economic Forum’s manifesto is: “You will own NOTHING and you will be HAPPY”.
Have you heard? Great Reset is getting a bad rap so they are changing it to Great Transition.
You mean everyone owns nothing.
You won’t own your organs either, with all the organ shortage
everywhere.
You will be happy with one kidney, one eye, a patch of skin missing here and there.
And you won’t have to worry #bout your retirement either!
I suggest the people revise that to “You will owe NOTHING and you will be HAPPY?
Yes they are, literally,
Harriet Tubman will be on the $20 before the year is out.
Andrew Jackson — the great Democrat — is being deep sixxed.
It is absurd that 13% of the population is controlling 60% and dragging them down to their level. That is what is really going on. The Democrats are using this phenomenon to promote their power base.
When will the White rebound start, Yohannon? Where is the third party based on the White working class as the common culture? I see no activity at all.
BTW, a contingent of GOPers are meeting with Biden today to learn from Uncle Joe how to unify the country under Federal control.
Guess who? Mittens, Collins , Murkowsky, leading the pack.
The Deep State is deepening. It may be that Patriots need to be looking for alternatives if national leaders do not arise to try to recover what has been lost.
@johnaz
Have you noy been watching TeeVee?
Every commercial is either all black or has half the people in it now.
Its almost like there are no other people in Amerika to use as advertisement props.
@benr
Not just TV, just try to search for a “white person” or “white couple” online. Note how light the TV black folks are. The new improved, homogenous, non-race race which will serve the Masters of the post-Covid Fruitopia.
Do you support the Whites who stormed the Capitol? No, right? There’s your answer. Or do you pretend they were all Antifa? As the Ghoul said, You people are such pussies you can’t even own your own protest. Have you see the clips of kids turning in their parents?
Do you admit White Nationalists were right about everything – because we predicted this was coming? And if you have, have you begun to change your view of the Civil War and World War Two? Because to change one essential fact, is to change everything. You can’t remove a pillar without replacing it – lest the building of the mind crumble and fall.
We’re far too individualistic – still dreaming of the big score that will put us above everyone else. Still dreaming of joining of the Elite rather than supplanting them. Still identifying with them rather than scorning and loathing them.
During the troubles in Ireland, one English landowner was found murdered, with a big clump of red hair in hand. So with that as the only clue, the police set out looking for a red head with a big clump of hair missing. Every red haired man for fifty square miles had a big clump of hair missing. That’s the attitude it will take. That’s power. That’s philia or brotherly love. Only such a Band of Brothers can endure and ultimately regain their freedom.
@benr even my Adobe Lightroom app features black hands clasped together as its photo intro as its booting up. Netflix, who I dumped recently, had “BLM approved” movies suggested, forcing me to wade through them to get to something I wanted to watch. And there is no meeting at my college that doesn’t mention antiracism or race, even if the topic has nothing to do with it (99% don’t).
Yes there is an obvious agenda and it’s not ‘unity’.

Did you ever think quality of life in USA would decline like this?
I did.
I will never accept, hold, or spend a “Tubman.”
Might as well be a “Zim Dollar.” (Used for toilet paper by the Zimbabweans back in 2009).
Odious debt is the term for that, and that can be repudiated. We are being foreclosed on already. Bill Gates and China are scooping up all the productive farm land as we write.
I used to think so too. But in this age of “elegant counterfeiting”, does it really? When those who write the “Written Whimsy” pretending to be the Sacred LAW have no respect for it? And that goes pandemic?
On the other hand, Rand would point to the devastation about to surround us and say “of course”.
brh –
“Do property owners still have to make mortgage payments to the banks on these assets (which are no longer assets)?”
Yes, they do in most cases. I’m also guessing many (larger) landlords are receiving state help with that problem, in the form of PPP or direct subsidy. As I’m not a landlord, I’m wildly specualting here. But there’s only so long one can go without income before needing a hand. Unless you’re a bank.
“Will owners just walk away and let the banks take over?”
Yes. I believe that is the plan. Massive property takeover is being carried out in slow motion right now…half of the middle class will soon see their once-sturdy floor crumble and they will fall into the UBI ranks with the rest of the masses before long.
People are getting all bent out of shape over the CDC ordering masks on public transportation under the JoeBama administration.
They don’t have any authority, and BTW neither does whoever is pulling Joe’s strings.
However, as near as I can tell, it was the Trump administration that gat the CDC to basically take over rental property. It started with the federally subsidized units, which makes a tiny amount of sense, but it spread to all rental property.
The administration did try to walk it back somewhat after landlords started to sue. The MSM framed it as President Trump making harmful changes to the law or decree or whatever it was.
People are getting bent out of shape over the CDC’s new double mask mandate, which they can do under the State of Emergency Trump foolishly implemented.
Fauci claimed yesterday that two masks aren’t better after all.
Why he wasn’t fired the minute it became clear what he was, I’ll never know.
President Trump’s State of Emergency didn’t actually do that. He checked, found he didn’t have the authority, so he wrote up guidelines for the states to do that kind of voodoo nonsense.
Which is why my fellow Trump supporters tell me to blame the states for these egregious restrictions, which is inaccurate.
If so many of his supporters hadn’t adopted a cult-like stance toward him, maybe we could have put a halt to the horribly wrong turn he took when this virus emerged.
But no, those of us who objected were censored and shouted down.
He trashed his whole presidency. It didn’t have to be.
BTW, there were three EOs he signed. If he hadn’t signed the last two, there would have been no basis for the mail-in ballots. That made cheating so much easier.
He should have let Fauci and the whole crew go when he brought in Dr. Atlas.
Yuge mistake not to, with terrible consequences.
You should hear the excuses people make for his not doing that:
“He’d be damned if he did and damned if he didn’t”.
Wouldn’t logic dictate that if you were going to be “damned” anyway, you’d choose the path that didn’t support fraud and destruction?
Hear, hear! So well said.
When Trump supporters fall into the same IDPol trap that Democrats do, it doesn’t bode well for anyone.
If Trump was so anti-deep state Dems, why didn’t he expose the COVID19 plandemic hoax? Instead, he just took little passive-aggressive jabs at it, such as when he supposedly had it, he denigrated how sick he was. My theory on that is that the mainstream media just announced he had it, then he had to play along.
It seemed obvious to me that he was annoyed by the whole thing.
And yes, keeping Fauci the pharmafioso and kicking out Dr. Atlas who knew the score, was a horrible move. Unless Trump was controlled opposition the entire time. Which is another possibility. Or, if he were compromised or threatened.
Check out Steve Hilton “The Next Revolution” on FOX from last night.
He had a segment detailing, with copies of NIH emails as evidence, that in 2014, 2015 and 2016 Obama had placed a hold on NIH funding regarding viral human to human respiratory research between NIH and Wuhan, China’s Viral Research Center because it was discovered that the Center had dangerous safety violations.
Anthony Fauci ignored the financial holds and financing for those years continued anyhow.
No other news outlet I am aware of is covering this. Anthony Fauci should be brought in to testify under oath, but considering the Democrats control the Congressional committees, I doubt the American people will ever find out the truth about U.S. duplicity regarding the Covid-19 pandemic that is destroying the world on every imaginable level.
Check out the show from last night.
He remembered that that the number of all good things is three.
Dr. Atlas? His name is next to the dictionary definition of Moron.
He betrayed all of us who supported him, just my opinion but I think he was another mechanism of control for the opposition to get behind and then did nothing of consequence or of any substance. Insurrection act, glass stegal act, democratic lawlessness, federal reserve, corna, 2nd amendment, big tech, etc all of his cabinet appointments where hopelessly incompetent and or deep state. He’s a loser only did one term and let the jobama regime take power and undo America in weeks.
The CDC recently ran an ad offering employment, looking for former military. They now have an armed enforcement branch, if you hadn’t noticed.
CDC now has an “armed enforcement branch”. All the advanced fighters and Hellfire missiles in existence can’t deal with a pandemic, collapse of the power grid, or the collapse of the dollar, last I checked.
No, that’s true, but they can certainly stop us from gathering in groups or protesting while all of that is going on.
Or force the “vaccine” on us.
Think about it. These payments are being suspended not forgiven. It is an accumulated debt payment, how the heck are these folks ever going to pay twelve months of rents, etc, is one fell swoop. This is just postponing bankruptcy.
Remember Michael Burris, played by Christian Bale in “The Big Short”. He made a fortune for his hedge fund by shorting the CDOs. He just looked up when all those ARMs were coming due, and knew most would never be paid.
Sounds very similar to what is happening right now as debts are accumulating again that will never be paid.
2008 crash was the result of the last debacle. This one, between the pandemic shutdown , student debt, mortgage debt, credit card debt, and the idiot Deep State debt should be a lulu.
JohnAZ – “how the heck are these folks ever going to pay twelve months of rents, etc, is one fell swoop.”
Well the thoery would be that banks would be forced by the govt to not be able to demand full suspended payment all at once, but simply extend the lengths of all loans by the amount of months they were put into forbearance due to covid.
Though that scenario of course probably has about the same chance of happening as a dwarf winning gold in the Olympic high jump.
postponing mortages and rent payments…
hmmmm where have we heard that before, it~s almost like there~s no private property
i~m confused
The Great Reset puppeteers will take over. That is the same thing they are doing to small businesses. All in the name of social justice, ofc. Good cover.
“In the future, you will own nothing, and you will be happy.” — WEF
It certainly looks to be shaping up that way. Horrible…
It’s a stealth grind into state-owned housing.
Just make sure you have this week’s vax and to keep your social credit score above a certain level.
Otherwise, no sleep pod, Soylent ration, and UBI for you, comrade!
Becoming much less stealth by the day, too.
Reason? The general public doesn’t seem to care, and buys every official rationalization for such a shift. Empires always take themselves down due to complacency.
Once enough years have gone by to normalize the lack of middle-class sustainability and we’re nudged rather forcefully into the state-controlled apartment boxes, given unlimited tv show options and THC edibles (purchased with our $1000/month UBI credit) we’ll be ripe for someone to come over and actually kick our asses.
Our turn comes soon. And that…well…kinda sucks.
Capital centralizes. We disavow Marx only at our peril. So the question was: Do we go with Marxism with the Capitalists in control or do we go with National Socialism, a system which actually preserves the Nation and People? We went with Capitalism/Communism because we thought they were two opposite things instead of two different sides of the same thing. If that were true, why do they unite so very well against nationalism – which they hate with a passion?
Well we may come out of all this as nationalists in the end – Chinese nationalists that is. The revolution didn’t work out quite right over there, their love of themselves was too strong. They turned from Maoism to Chinese Nationalism, and now back to the Empire. We’ll be one of the lower tiered ethnic groups in the empire. I much prefer this to being ruled by Blacks of course.
Well, the general public seems just fine that it grilled and chilled its way into communism.
America really needs to change its national animal to the jellyfish.
China is the model.
Except we have none of the stunning accomplishments of China to show for.
Take a look at Urumqui, the Chinese equivalent of Fargo, ND, to see the difference:
https://www.google.com/search?q=Urumqi+Xinjiang&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X
Looks like Blade Runner.
No thanks.
“…even tho well intentioned…”
As long as you maintain this notion you will remain puzzled.
The rent and mortgage moratoriums won’t come home to roost for another few months. Renters will get evicted, but mortgagors will have their ‘missed’ payments added onto the end of their notes, extending those monthly payments onto the back end. So the renters being evicted will take to the streets in protest, and retaliate against landlords with property destruction. You will also see multiple families living in 1 unit like sardines. Nothing much the landlords can do, even if leases limit the number of occupants. People will find ways to survive, just like the 1930’s depression. You will have house sharing galore. And people living in garages, storage units, pods, etc. Think Covid is bad now? Just wait a year. Biden will hide in the basement of the White House. No press conferences, nothing. Just prepared comments pleading for more stimulus. When the summer comes things will heat up in the streets. It will be like the 1960’s, except it will be older folk marching. The youth are too apathetic and clueless. The Dems won’t know what to do. Citizen militias will arise as people seek to protect and defend themselves against the chaos.
Jim,
Great post as always. See below for Taibbi’s musings on same.
Taibbi, the last of the investigative journalists, calls a spade a spade and puts sometimes complex subjects in layman’s terms. His ruthless sarcasm is priceless.
Taibbi is one of the most awesome, talented social critics of our times – second only to you. Keep up the great writing, it’s appreciated more than you know.
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/taibbi-suck-it-wall-street
I’m so glad Taibbi climbed back out of the IDPol Blue no matter who pit he had fallen into! Not many do. That shows character.
So, I follow and read him again.
Others, not so much. Thanks for the link.
Have a laugh!
“Former White House senior adviser Jared Kushner and his deputy, Avi Berkowitz, have been nominated for the Nobel peace prize for their role in negotiating four normalisation deals between Israel and Arab nations known as the “Abraham Accords”.
The two former deputies to then-President Donald Trump were nominated by American attorney Alan Dershowitz, who was eligible to do so in his capacity as a professor emeritus of Harvard Law School.”
Good gawd- talk about a descent into psychopathy.
While that is ridiculously amusing, notice that BLM has now also been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Waiting for the nominations of John Goodman, Paul Reubens, Elmo and Red Green to be nominated. Would make just as much sense.
I really need to proof read my posts better. Damn.
And this just in…Trump has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize as well, for a deal put together between the UAE and Israel. The list is growing.
When will Antifa get their nomination?
No, it appears that now Staci Abrams, do-nothing, pandering shit-stirrer, has been nominated!
I think they have finally hit the bottom of the barrel.
I can’t stop laughing.
Time to stop caring about the Nobel Peace Prize, I guess.
Is there still time to nominate Screech? An unfortunate fellow with an unfortunate end…perhaps we can spin that into a nomination.
Hahahahaa – but seriously, poor Screech.
well weren~t the deals signed?
or are you still hoping for arafat to return and blow up more israelis since that~s the arab definition of peace
I just recall wondering why people who create bloodshed and then stop briefly are lauded as eternal heroes. Technically, yes, peace was created. And then swept aside soon after.
Of course I don’t want Palestinian-Israeli bloodshed.
1-2 million arabs live in israel because it~s safe.
1-2 israelis live in gaza
Dershowitz, good pal of Epstein, most likely a pedo, still powerful and influential. Makes me want to puke.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/feb/01/jared-kushner-nominated-for-nobel-peace-prize
I really can’t comment to much, Wall Street is something I have only the most cursory understanding of.
I will say that the movement that turned into MAGA missed a yuge opportunity, when the Tea Party failed to recognize that they and the Occupy movement were on the same side.
We still do that; we hurl invective at the “other”, and don’t even recognize we are using the propaganda “talking points” the MSM foisted on us.
Yes, student loan debtors were victimized. No, that doesn’t mean there should be a wholesale debt elimination. That’s a false choice. It would also give the people who created and benefitted most from the racket that is Higher Ed, plenty of cover.
Joe Biden, btw, was instrumental in making the laws that single out the people with student loans for permanent debtor status, unable to avail themselves of any of the debt relief options every other class has a right to.
Another talking point/false choice:
If you are skeptical of the rush job experimental ‘vaccine’ in any way, and resistant to the idea of having it forced on you and yours, you are a backward superstitious anti-vaxxer.
Back to my main point, which is this is how they divide us. There are more of us than there are of them. Way more. They have to keep us apart and afraid of each other, for their own survival.
Oh, and one other thing. The last financial bubble and crash did not happen because banks were forced to make loans to African Americans who couldn’t afford the houses they bought.
I was a worldwide mortgage meltdown. Duh.
I still hear people repeating that idiocy.
“Joe Biden, btw, was instrumental in making the laws that single out the people with student loans for permanent debtor status, unable to avail themselves of any of the debt relief options every other class has a right to.”
The trillion + in student loan debt will hit the economy at some point as unemployment rises and salaries fall. Unpayable debt is just that — unpayable — and even though there’re no asset to foreclose on, there are lives to be ruined with the onerous terms buried in those loans. It’s a setup for debt peonage just like the payday loan places that setup in strip malls all over the country.
If the hedge funds go down I hope there is absolutely NO BAILOUT. A friends’ son in 2008 was paid millions by AIG that he and his investors in no way earned.
A bail-out (gov’t gives our future wealth to the banks) will be too small to fill the crater left when this bubble pops. It will take a bail-in (gov’t gives our current wealth to the banks). That is what the Great Reset prescribes. To quote a great statesperson, “It takes a pillage”.
I’m afraid you’re right there. That’s what was tried in Cyprus about 15 years ago but they had to back off b/c of the outrage. But the world is different now and the people more powerless.
And the Covid bogeyman can be reanimated at anytime to keep everyone in line. I have no idea how all this will turn out.
“And the Covid bogeyman can be reanimated at anytime to keep everyone in line. I have no idea how all this will turn out.”
I think you know. And it will not be logical or fun for anyone except those in charge of pushing that perpetual button. Covid is the new War on Terror. Barely visible to most of the popultation, but the most important thing in the world nonetheless.
SW
Cypriots with more than 100,000 euros in their accounts took their haircut for the banks. Nobody backed off. Not a few Russian investors (in Cypriot banks) were also stung.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-cyprus-banks-idUSKBN1K3242
@ Green Alba — I didn’t remember that the government had left some money (100,000 euros is significant) but it could be a warning to what could happen here with deposit insurance. Only foxes are watching the hen house.
@MrMango — Covid is the new War on Terror and has been incredibly effective. I’ve known a lot of people who’ve tested positive, some got sick for a while and all recovered. But those are never reported on the news.
SW
Over here we are told that the first £85,000 with any one bank is covered by ‘the government’ in the case of the bank going down the tubes.
It amuses me that this reassures people, in a country with a 2 trillion pound national debt. 🙂
You might get an IOU, I guess.
There’s no free lunch.
There are problems with the delivery system in place for the vaccines. There has already been a bomb threat at a manufacturing facility. It hardly seems worth taking the risk of getting an experimental vaccine for an illness with a survival rate in excess of 99%. Even if you’re over 80, the survival rate is greater than 97%. There are indications that about 50% of us my already be immune due to a previous infection with a corona virus. My daughter has it right now and she isn’t even sick enough to miss working her shift on her computer and phone at home. She has a stuffy nose, a slight cough, and complete loss of her senses of taste and smell. She doesn’t otherwise feel ill. There hasn’t even been a fever.
Those autists on reddit probably mostly voted for Biden, but it occurs to me that they are our natural allies, as well as BLM. I don’t know about Antifa, Those fascists were rioting and burning in Portland on the evening after the inauguration, carrying signs saying “Biden is not my President, but perhaps it is some sort of ruse to associate them in people’s minds with the right wing. I suspect their brief has nothing to do with either the Democrats or the Republicans, and the Democrats might come to rue the day they allied themselves with that bunch. If they thought they could bring them to heel after the successful takeover of the government, well, they have an awful lot on their plates.
“Those autists on reddit probably mostly voted for Biden, but it occurs to me that they are our natural allies, as well as BLM.”
I saw BLM on local TV rolling dumpsters into residential neighborhoods, piling mattresses on top and then lighting them on fire to try to ignite the trees next to the homes of innocent families (while also blocking the intersections so fire trucks would not be able to respond if fires spread). I’m not getting in bed with them, even if their tactics work.
Then again, the people rolling dumpsters were 20-something white guys with hipster beards. So likely that was Antifa (or someone else) pretending to be BLM. So fucking annoying. Definitely don’t want to be in bed with them either.
Jackwads.
Yes and no. Occupy were Marxist/Anarchists, Communist/Antifa.
Tea Party were Capitalist/Libertarians. Proto-Maga. The former groups were Anti-American by their very nature. They wanted Globalism or in the case on anarchists, no nation or law or they don’t know what they want (seriously!). How are they going to united with American Patriots; people who believe in the system and want to become Elite themselves? In other words, false nationalists who don’t know their own falsity?
The real Elite understand Capitalism/Communism and play one off against the other. Both are for chumps. Successful people don’t compete. Competition is a sin. You crush your opponent or you unite with him. Or crush him and then unite with him in a crushed state. You take what’s his in other words. You make the losers share. That’s the Communism.
So essentially, No, no opportunity was missed. Being what they are, these confused people could never have united since they don’t understand that Communism is a creation of Capitalism and that their real friend was Fascism/National Socialism – something unacceptable to both sides.
Yo – The reason people have a hard time getting on board with the core “benevolent” tenets of National Socialism is…well…the one time it was truly implemented it went far off the rails and things turned out quite horrifyingly poorly…for most of the entire world.
In theory and concept there may be something there, but in implementation (and name) it’s going to be a pretty tough sell to 99.9%. Including myself.
Also, I just can’t buy that Communism and Capitalism are married as flipsides of the same coin. Interesting concept, to be sure, and there are some points that line up. But in core and totality it just seems off to me.
Well again, I’m talking about American National Socialism or American Fascism (the difference is that the former includes races whereas Fascism stops at honoring the culture and traditions. Civic Nationalism in other words), not German NS or Italian Fascism. The theory is clear: each Nation will have its own, one in concert with their own unique traditions, folkways and mores.
As for relationship between Capitalism and Communism: Who funded the Revolution? Do you think that workers with hammers and farmers with pitchforks could have overthrown the Czar and his secret police? We know the Bankers contributed massively to their co-ethnic revolutionaries.
Who funds the Communist BLM and Antifa? Not just Soros but every fucking major Corporations, other than a few.
France? Apparently the money flowed in from England, as well as some Aristocrats who wanted an industrial revolution like England’s. Their intellectual and the Masonic Lodges were all on board as well. Peasants alone? No one believes that.
China? I know less about it. Communist Russia, certainly. But also major aid from Capitalist Western Governments. Again – why? Why did Chiang Kai Shek overboard in favor of Communism?
Why do they do this? To destabilize ancient, self sufficient regimes and economies – and bring them into the “Market”. Both are philosophies of matter. In contrast, National Socialism and Fascism are Philosophies of Man.
And remember how the talking heads were so confident Capitalism would liberalize China? Didn’t happen. Meanwhile the Corporations were destroying Liberty here. The two systems meet again in Globalist Tyranny.
So how would textbook Fascism or National Socialism translate positively into modern American society? They are both concepts that, on paper (depending on which paper you’re reading), can make sense…but tried in real life they end up in disaster and eventual collapse, much like the Soviet Union did under Communism/Marxism.
Every system seems to have its inherent flaw…human nature. Even the most benevolent hierarchy will eventually fall to some dipshit(s) and the pathological among them.
Our system has been going strong for 245 years. Even though the majority seem to be ambivalent, most people are still at least ideologically invested by muscle memory, if nothing else. It is now weakening by massive degrees, certainly. The center is not holding. There is mostly only right and left, to those that care to think about it. But how would a new/old structure (that has been tried before and ended up ruining tens of millions of lives) make us any better?
The people are the people they are, at this point. They would need war and famine to change their point of view. None of us, on the whole, have ever experienced that, nor would we want to. We’re coddled and comfortable. And we are weak, by historical standards. But so are most of the other historically Western countries. Imposing a system that has failed and been forever banned in many countries may not be a good thing…am I wrong?
Are you wrong? About human nature: No. This is why we embrace a strict hierarchy. Not all things are for all people – certainly not voting! See Aristotle. And as Krishna says, The four castes are not arbitrary social designations, rather they are made by Me. Some here recently quoted a truncated medieval Christian version: those who labor, those who fight, and those who pray. The Pagan version was the Jarls (Lords), Carls (Warriors), and Thralls (Laborers/Slaves – not so nice!)
The Ancient Indian version is best: Brahmins (intellectuals/priests), Ksyatrias, (Warrior/Administrators), Vaisyas (famers, businessmen), and Sudras (Laborers). Are we going to embrace any such thing? No, we are ruled by selfish Vaisyas and evil Brahmans who used the Sudras (mob) to get control of the System via democracy. And yes, most regimes only get about 250 years so our demise is right on cue. Maybe we’ll continue as something else, as the Roman Empire did after the fall of the Republic. But you see they lauded their past, whereas “we” want to eliminate all traces of it – as well as the founding race. So to call what’s coming America would just be an insult to all that came before.
Are you wrong about National Socialism/Fascism? Yes. They work as per China and Japan show. That’s what they are underneath the Communist and Capitalist veneer. Just as we are a Totalitarian Plutocracy underneath our silly democratic veneer. The attempt to return to healthy Fascism or Civic Nationalism under Trump was crushed.
And if you really want to delve into forbidden knowledge, study the economic miracle of Nazi Germany. Many considered the Hero to be literally the Father of their Nation since they couldn’t afford to have kids until He put things right. Not having kids you can’t afford – aren’t Whites wonderful! It was working and it had to be crushed before other nations kicked out the parasite bankers and took it up themselves.
And even the lower class was honored: One time there was a breaking ground ceremony. Instead of just holding the shovel for a picture, the Hero began to work in earnest in the warm Spring sun until his shire began to be stained with sweat. He was teaching them about the dignity of labor. After a shocked minute or so, many others joined in joyfully.
So a system where all types of humans were put in their rightful place to contribute to the good of the entire social body. That’s how it would work. Obviously the Capitalists need to be watched with great vigilance since they will always tend to fall back into putting profit before people. That’s why they’re the second lowest class. But they will be raised to be humble and know that they are under surveillance by their betters. That will make them better. If they don’t like, they can leave. Ditto anyone else. The “Wall” would have a turnstile type exit. No ceremony needed. Getting back in would be much more difficult.
Silver = Bitcon = Tulip
Logarithmically driven to reach the sky and for all intent and purpose will them go to ZERO. Fundamentally they have ZERO utility. But people with smarts and money will make more money, both on the way up and on the way down. Can anyone here include himself or herself in that group? I didn’t think so. Like the Vatican/CIA tools keep insisting, grab the popcorn folks and enjoy the show. That’s all you’re really capable of, isn’t it.
Akmofo, doesn’t silver have many industrial applications?
There’s already enough silver above ground to supply these for a billion years, nevermind recycling.
It sure does. Most of the silver mined each year is used for industrial purposes. You can not have the Green New Deal without a massive amount of silver. Those of us that have stacked can hold it all hostage. I’ll accept no less than $1000 per ounce for mine.
what if paper money~s worthless?
I’ll take it. Especially the green stuff with the words:
IN GOD WE TRUST
The US dollar index is starting to break out. Above 91 it’s a buy. Above 96 it will crush everything else. We’ve heading to 119, so take that is a warning. Collect dollars!
this morning my Canadian bank wanted $79. for a 1 oz bar of silver. I was tempted to buy a couple 🙂
I’ve been buying off and on for years. I don’t trust banks with my meagre savings. I don’t even consider the price but buy whatever my small allocation every month allows. If the ratio of silver to gold reaches 15 or even 20:1, (the historic ratio) I will trade it for gold.
Melt it down and use it to fill cavities. Become a Dentist in your village post-collapse.
I don’t think it’s going to work with silver; the market cap for silver is way to big for any single group to have much of an effect.
unless there~s an uncontrolled short squeeze like with GME
i think that~s the premise here
https://priceonomics.com/how-the-hunt-brothers-cornered-the-silver-market/
…Uhh…Yeah….
Hunts tried back in the day.
There are many echoes of 1929, right before the market blew up. Specifically, “ordinary people” buying shares in a frenzy and using debt to buy them. How well did that turn out?
There is no comparison between 1929 and today. The stock market today is manipulated by AI-controlled machine buying and selling which will re-calibrate the indexes to avoid large, sustained bear trends. In fact, this is what makes the hedge funds founded on shorting speculations so attractive. GME and the like, are select items to be destroyed, during a general upswing of the market. If the whole caboodle goes, causing hyperinflation your dream killings are useless because your loot is worthless
I don’t believe most of the Redditors are buying on margin. They understand the danger of that. They aren’t, for the most part, playing with OPM.
The last total I read was over 1 Trillion in damages to various hedge funds.
As James Howard has predicted many times over, the events that will precipitate the return to low tech living are manifesting front and center today. If one took note of past blogs, books, podcasts, then they’ve acquired the necessary components for smoothing out the transition in whatever form it takes I.e. quick-violent; moderately quick-violent (based on location); somewhat slow with some time to adjust and acquire items. Food supplies, garden set up and functioning, silver/gold/lead, water catchment system, with different filtration systems, redundant heating systems. Even if this is a false alert, these items have long term use.
The situation with silver should be the moment of enlightenment. One day between online acquisition of any quantity and next “out of stock” across all dealers. Everything on my dealers site now out. Quote for eagles is 25% above spot att. That will rise if product is available, no doubt. Extrapolate this to other items of value for an example of how rapidity the scarcity of important items can occur due to unforeseen events.
As with silver, if you’ve not acquired ammo – too late. Reloading equipment not to be found, or basic reloaded but NO dies for common calibers, no propellant, brass etc. A crossbow works well, with the best at 1 MOA @100yds. Hesitate and – you lose.
Getsome,
XBows at 1 MOA? Maybe in the Olympics. Many riflemen…the majority, I expect, cannot obtain 1 MOA with their own scoped rifles.
I have little silver, no gold…but am adequate on everything else you cite. Oh yeah, 1/3 MOA no problem….1/4 on a good day.
The Green new deal is suddenly looking to be much more expensive.
of course.
The premium for a 1 ounce silver round is around $12 above spot at the moment. A $5 roll of 90% silver Roosevelt dimes would cost me $160 with the premium and the charge for using Paypal.
Wait until people figure out it isn’t green, too.
I expect to hear a campaign that will sound similar to the calls for more censorship of social media, for our own good and to prevent the spread of disinformation by “Nazi’s,” etc. This one will be along the lines of the need to prevent groups of private individuals (“Nazi’s,” of course) from coordinating stock or commodity trades to “distort and damage our markets.” They may look to ban trading by individuals altogether and require all trades to go through licensed and responsible brokers who will gauge the “soundness” of the trade and make sure it is not based upon “disinformation” or “evil intent” or “systemic racism.”
You can’t allow the riff-raff to even get close to the same rules by which our minders play.
I notice Liz Warren jumped in to protect Wall Street.
Not surprising at all. A lot of people on the Right are going gaga over the Gamestop shenanigans, fantasizing that this is a harbinger of an all-out assault of the plebs on the system which will eventually destroy it. I have a much more cynical view of this. You will not change anything by finding a clever way to make a bundle by robbing the robbers. Bottom line, there is no value-add in that. The only intelligent, socially responsible way, to control the money madness and the economy based wholly on feeding financial parasitic uber-class, is through a set of tough financial regulation, i.e. revival of Glass-Steagall, outlawing making money on speculations on loss of value, i.e. “short-selling”, and taxation of volume stock market transactions. That is the only way I can see.
I think there is now big money on the squeeze side of GameStop.
At this point it’s a question of when they pull the rug on the little guys.
Quite so. People want to put on the Ring and become a Dark Lord – and be socially applauded for doing so. How few would be willing to remain Galadriel, diminish, and leave Middle Earth?
Capitalist Man is a Scumbag. You can take that to the Bank. That’s has to be the basis of our social policy.
If we must have a stock market, it must be tightly controlled as you say. Money has to be kept close to the physical world it represents – not become a commodity itself. Then we get the hallucinated economy as JHK puts it.
According to Ted Butler, “JPM used to be the biggest COMEX short seller, but they managed not only to slip out from all their paper short positions, but build up a tremendous physical silver and gold position over the years. JPM went from the biggest short seller to the biggest long ever seen. It’s quite remarkable and extraordinarily bullish.”
JP Moregain will benefit greatly.
Lil’ Brian Stelter apparently is now ramping up his call for more censorship of conservative viewpoints.
“Freedom of speech is not the same as freedom of reach.” Or some bs like that.
We did not get any kind of delay or forbearance or anything on local school taxes, so I imagine local landlords who aren’t getting any rent are having to go into their own pocket for large sums of money to pay theirs.
Mind you, the schools have not been providing the product we pay for.
If you want to pay your taxes in cash, be prepared to sit in the line at the drive-through, the bank decided you can’t come inside due to the increased number of “cases” of COVID, which are nothing but positive tests that we know for a fact cannot accurately diagnose the virus.
That testing, though, is a billion dollar industry, so it keeps going.
I tried to interest a local reporter in this monumental case of fraud. I haven’t heard back from him, I’m afraid his head may have exploded from unaccustomed critical thinking.
Good on you for trying! BTW, I am enjoying your comments on this thread – incredibly insightful.
Thank you.

This is from an article in The Spectator;
“What should worry us is that this latest crisis is another unexpected threat to the system already under attack from multiple sides (by the pandemic, global warming, social protests…). Moreover, this threat comes from the very heart of the system not from outside. An explosive mixture is in the making, and the longer the explosion is postponed, the more devastating it could be.”
From the same article Robert Reich tweeted : ‘So let me get this straight: Redditors rallying GameStop is market manipulation, but hedge fund billionaires shorting a stock is just an investment strategy?’
The overlords in every society from every period in history never wanted the underlings thinking for themselves. No wonder basic education is being gutted.
Tim Pool asserts that the silver pitch is actually a false flag operation by the hedge funds to try to derail the GameStop runup.

So attacks by the Citizens against Elite manipulation of the economy threaten to bring that circus tent crashing down. Well somebody was going to pull the Jenga stick and I see the Daddy Warbucks’ fingerprints all over it. Why not beat them to it, kick them in the shins and vaporize a few trillion from their net wealth on the way down, hell maybe even impoverish a few? After all, they robbed us first.
The perfect form of revolution for the lockdown age. Where do I sign up? This non-physical, crowd-sourced form of resistance could be directed in other ways. For example, mass emails (from a secure account), calls (burner phone), etc., to maybe a certain sheriff’s department congratulating them for bravely fending off (with pepper spray and physical violence) a group of mothers and children who were trying to rescue an old woman who had been kidnapped by a hospital. It’s a target rich environment out there, and so many of us sitting around with nothing to do…

Yeah kudos to that Black security guard taking pictures of the MAGA people at Capitol Storm so they could be destroyed. Police have to support police, right?
In the meantime, we can give them a good game of whack-a-mole to keep them occupied.
MAGA = Fascism. They’re right about that in fact. They’re wrong that’s it a bad thing. Because Fascism = Nationalism. Good for us. Bad for them. Choose.
You can only choose wisely when you understand the facts. And you can’t understand until you call things by their right names. Rectification of names is the first step to reform as Confucius said. Never call Plutocrats, Fascists, again. It’s an intellectual sin of the highest order.

MAGA = populism. We certainly must agree on the definition of words, but I think you’ve got this one wrong. We didn’t elect Trump as a Republican. He isn’t even Republican in the traditional sense of the word. He was a Democrat most of his life. We elected a Populist outsider, twice, I believe, though Trump is certainly a flawed vessel. Now we are going to be punished for it.
Draupnir
Think about your statement.
Populism government doing what the people want, not what the government wants for their own return and power drives.
Of the people, by the people and for the people is a joke today.
What the heck is going to get these clods out of DC so that the government becomes responsive to the people again.
Trump did not work. The vote did not work, it was phony. Is it time for civil war, or is that too late? Is it time to go somewhere else?
JohnAZ, I was disagreeing with Yanos regarding the meaning of MAGA. He seems to believe it is fascist in nature, I argued that it is populist. We voted for a populist outsider. That he didn’t quite deliver is beside the point. Though I would prefer Trump in the oval office rather than Biden, I’m pleased that Biden will be the one to go down in history as the man who presided over the fall of the country. He may very well be the last ever elected, no matter how foul the means. Biden has no mandate or popular support, but apparently they have walled off DC and are going to carry out their agenda without it. I frankly don’t want to go in the direction they are dragging us. They’re dug in like a tick and there isn’t much I can think of to get them out. The only thing we can really do is resist and strike out in small, annoying ways. The Reddit autists are showing the way. I have frankly been considering Belize for about 10 years, but I’ve got the family anchor around my neck.
The worship of the Caesars was not imposed from above – it grew from below. You’re postulating a largely false dichotomy, at least in terms of the masses.
If Trump had been able to overthrow them, I would have gladly had him as President for life. And then hoped he got his own mountain for his image.
The worship of the Caesars was not imposed from above
==
Asinine and blatantly false.
If it wasn’t for the forced worship of the Caesar, Jews would still have their Temple in Jerusalem, have their sovereignty over Judea, and would never have suffered war genocide and exile by the Romans. There’d be no Satanic Roman reason to invent “Palestine” so as to negate the Jewish God the Jewish People and their Jewish Land. We also wouldn’t be naming months July and August, and we wouldn’t have the 10th month December now being the 12th. Same for the 7th 8th and 9th months being moved forward because of these 2 Caesar worship months.
Well among the common Roman people. Obviously not a remote hostile outpost like Palestine. Some Jews liked Graeco-Roman Culture of course.
Stop putting yourself in the center. You’re circumference. And your tribal deity isn’t God. Only God is God.
La illaha il’allah: There is no God but God.
Great new series on Netflix: The Messiah. Christ returns and preaches to Muslims and Jews (not Christians yet). He is hated by many in both groups. He leads 2000 Palestinians back to their homeland in Israel where they are stopped by the border guards. The Right of Return!
The common Roman people got Caesar’s Messiah and the Trinity: Vespasianus Titus Flavius, Titus Vespasianus Flavius and Domitianus Titus Flavius. Keep worshiping Caesar and his Hollywood propaganda outlets. You is a hopeless Vatican rube.
“Trump did not work. The vote did not work, it was phony. Is it time for civil war, or is that too late? Is it time to go somewhere else?”
Who would be the two sides in this civil war? Where would the foot soldiers come from? It’s certainly not state v state, and it is far too complicated to say that it’s city v rural.
It seems to me the vast majority of Democrat voters and Trump voters have common problems, common levels of dispossession, and similar levels of interest in changing a system that has decayed and been corrupted.
I think what is needed is a social revolution against the powers that be (the owners of money and assets) – not a bunch of different beltway politicians (or even those in state houses) who are far more similar than they are different.
The deep state (the technocrats and experts) who manage the system for the wealthy would need to be disempowered too – but they are enabled by Republicans just as much as by Democrats.
False dichotomies and the elites win.
I think higher education is one place to start, to focus on. It has become a financial racket of gigantic size, fueled by almost limitless student loans, and the backing of serious endowment money.
Higher education should be free, and available to anyone who desires it and has the high school record required – the current selection processes favour the dominant classes, and three-quarters of the population never enjoys social mobility and advancement via education.

To anyone thinking of going somewhere else, there is nowhere else. Stand where you live.
(Just my opinion of course.)
John, your thinking is one-dimensional.
You can’t GO anywhere else. That is what globalism is about. In case you have not noticed, there have been populist uprisings in several countries recently, and rumblings in others.
Populism is all we have to fight what is not just coming, but what is already here.
“I think higher education is one place to start”
Tekapo, you are very skilled at writing posts that are 3/4 cogent and reasonable, and then in the last 1/4 making a wrong turn at Albuquerque that makes no sense. And that exact formula seems to be your intent.
What in the holy hell does focusing on higher education racketeering, forgiving student loan debt and giving college away for free (to anyone who wants it) have to do with your previous talk of the deepening social divide in this country and who exactly would band together on sides if there were another civil war?
How would that be a place to start?
Perhaps we could tackle the civil divide question by lowering auto emissions too? Or adding another Earth Day each year…banning the sale of ammunition…or adding a third ? bathroom in every school hallway across the nation? That could all solve it too.
How does giving people free access to (mostly) liberal indoctrination centers help the divide?
Oh…I see…if everyone gets the same forced training, there would be no divide. Got your point now. I think?
People need guidance and modeling. We’re not fish or frogs who just know what to do. My cats used to hunt moths with great enthusiasm in the warm summer nights. I offered one of them a bug I had caught in my house and was releasing outside. She wasn’t interested. Instinct told her that wasn’t a good one to eat, whereas moths where. But even cats need some modeling to grow up well.
Our current System is trying to perv, queer, and corrupt as many people as possible. Every little kid gets an I phone or computer with access to pornography. And a free “education” as to how they as scum if White and how America was/is unspeakable evil and will remain so until completely changed.
I propose a System that helps people become healthy. Surely that’s a big difference. And yes, the small needs to be maintained as well. The local. The family with a Father as the head. You’re right: This is the great challenge. One of the greatest lines in LOTR: Barliman says to the new King, Aragorn, Congratulations, but we want to be left alone. Aragorn: You will be.
“How would [higher education] be a place to start?”
I make no apology for my belief that post-secondary education is a great place to start, in order to break class barriers, allow upward mobility, and to ensure people have better careers and lives.
Thomas Jefferson thought so too. When the founders looked west of the Appalachians, he mandated that every new state fund a state university from the get-go.
He understood that you needed a farmer class, a yeoman-tradesman class, and an educated middle class was part of the glue to make decent societies.
I made no comment about forgiving the current $1.3 trillion in outstanding student loan debt. There are arguments both ways on the question. But I certainly believe higher education should be free – and in fact students who can’t afford it should receive a stipend to cover their basic living expenses for the four years.
And I am talking about universities being a liberating force in society, and a great place to get very large numbers of people who are currently locked out of higher education and careers a better chance in life.
But two types of universities need major reform – firstly the “prestigious” universities, where it is their status that is their main point. Every current Supreme Court justice has attended either Yale or Harvard – it need not be that way, and nor should it be that way.
And secondly, a wide range of hippie-shit liberal arts courses need to be reformed and re-engineered. There is nothing wrong with a liberal arts degree per se, but it needs to be grounded in reality.
But my preference is for a wide range of practical and necessary skills and qualifications to be bolstered and funded: nursing, policing, emergency services, allied health, computing, agriculture, teaching, writing, business, and a lot of other practical, productive skills that will be necessary in the future.
The GI Bill got a lot of people a higher education, most of whom would not have had that opportunity but for WWII. It was considered radical at the time.
Under the current system, attendance at an elite university is a necessary ticket to many fields – all of that needs to be broken down if the financial rackets, business rackets, political rackets, and the technocratic “deep state”, are going to be reformed.
Perhaps we could avoid a civil war.
“Tekapo, you are very skilled at writing posts that are 3/4 cogent and reasonable, and then in the last 1/4 making a wrong turn at Albuquerque that makes no sense. And that exact formula seems to be your intent.”

Let us shift the topic to Russia Truth and see what Mr. Po has to say.
Silver is 18 times more abundant than gold, yet gold trades at over 65 times silver. Although gold has industrial usages, it’s not quite as useful as Ag. Tell me the markets aren’t manipulated.
Personally, I hope this new silver gamut succeeds. The public has been screwed way too long. Not sure it will be successful. If it is, expect other investments to come under attack. Wouldn’t it be something if the revolution happens through the investment markets and not through violence in the streets?
don~t kid yourself.
like the men in control always do, they simply change the rules when they~re losing
happened to the hunt brothers
watch for a new trading-attack tax to ~stabilise~ markets be enacted
for the children, especially those of john kerry and co.
So no rules then, right? Except the Law of the Market (Jungle)? See how twisted up they have you in your thinking? You think that rather than a small class of scumbags being in control of a market, two scumbags should be in control – if they are able to do it “legally”.
On a Conservative forum, one poor schmoe said, So what if only a few people own everything, as long as they got it legally. He equated legally with fairly. That’s why he’s a schmoe.
if you~re replying to me, you are tilting at something i did not say
So you’re for regulation, since the Market per se is just the Law of the Jungle? Good.
so we have multiple market gurus out here lol
I agree. I was being hopeful. I’m waiting for, as Bill Maher says, new rules.
Bill, how high do you see silver going? Close to 30 now.
Marlin, ultimately silver will end up at its true value. You can’t keep a good metal down forever. What is that true value? What someone is willing to pay for it. If and when hyperinflation comes, the price really will go to the moon. Can’t say what price that will be. However, in the short term, I see the price getting to $35, but I’m pretty conservative. In 1980 the price hit $50 per ounce. Also, there could be a short-term price drop as the big boys start taking defensive action. Sorry to be so wishy-washy, but I’ve been following precious metals for over 50 years, and know the market is fixed.
Wrong question. What you want to know is how far the “dollar” will fall. So a better question: How many intrinsically worthless pieces of a paper currency with a picture of George Washington on it can be purchased with one ounce of silver [ it is a trade after all ].
“What you want to know is how far the “dollar” will fall.”
Exactly.
It’s been near 30 a number of times over the last few months.
It was up there around 15 years ago too
That about jibes with the traditional 16:1 silver to gold ratio instituted in the US in the early 1800’s. Assuming the gold price isn’t being suppressed (BIG if), silver should be over $100 @ oz.
And unlike gold, an awful lot of silver is consumed each year and is not recoverable. Add to that, “pure” silver mines are a rarity, most silver is a by-product of copper mining ops.
The price of silver has got to be the most manipulated out there.
It is. But remember that the gold market is manipulated, too, and that also affects the gold/sliver ratio. Say gold should be at $5,000. At 16/1, silver would be over $300.
One debt ‘clock’ has silver at 4500/ounce, relative to gov debt.
If we match the price of silver to the national debt, I would think that long before silver got to $4,500, the debt would have been repudiated or the silver price regulated. If something bad happens unexpectedly, then maybe the price rises that high very fast, but regulation would set in rapidly. The main value for the average person to own silver is either to back the dollar or replace it someday. Although it would make many people happy at present to own $4,500 Ag as an investment.
Linking paper money to gold & silver may have worked at one time but it would not going forward. Governments would simply say they have more gold than they really do. There is no way govts would allow an actual fair audit of the reserves they say they have.
As I write that I am reminded of a few years back when I think it was Germany who wanted their gold back from bank vaults in NYC. They couldn’t get it repatriated, probably because it wasn’t there any more. They went quiet on their demand rather quickly too, I suspect after being told the truth and then needing to go on publicly making believe they still had all that physical gold.
“Silver is 18 times more abundant than gold, yet gold trades at over 65 times silver. Although gold has industrial usages, it’s not quite as useful as Ag. Tell me the markets aren’t manipulated.” — beantownbill
Uh, that’s how pricing works. Scarcity ups value. Supply/demand.
Gold has always been more valuable than silver, though both have been used as money for millennia, which, despite silver’s use as conduction in medical equipment , e.g., is silver’s prime draw.
Yeah, I saw somewhere that all the gold in the world can fit into an Olympic sized swimming pool.

Look. Now ask yourself why media is saying what they’re saying.
i tend to agree with that. The deep state, swamp or whatever you call it, employs Hegelian Dialectics in all its criminal endeavors making it nearly impossible to sort fact from fiction. One thing is sure, whenever anybody gets close to a truth, this criminal cabal labels it conspiracy theory (Alinsky propaganda rule 5).
Hegelian Dialectic: Thesis (problem); Antithesis (reaction); Synthesis (solution) and the so-called two-party ideological paradigm facilitates the process to synthesis, all predetermined.
Impossible?
Um. All you need to do is look at what the McMedia is reporting and assume the opposite. They literally do the work for you.
I go out of my way to NOT take in any MSM propaganda, but point taken.
funny i was just talking to a friend about this very thing (we are both very aware of the Hegelian Dialectic).
the “markets” exist today as a money-laundering apparatus for the criminal central bank and its co-conspirator charter banks ie JPM, Goldman, Blackrock et al. The “markets” serve no other purpose. The only way to approach this vast money laundering apparatus is by employing game theory manipulation, as in the case with GME, re: *prisoner’s dilemma*.
once this corrupt system of money creation is taken out, the human race will only benefit. Until it’s taken out, it languishes in slavery to this the owners of this onerous system.
JFK signed EO 11110 which ordered the Treasury to create currency backed by silver. He ordered it to print $4 billion + in 10 and 20 dollar bills to be printed and circulated effectively ending central bank corruption and domination. 10 days later, he was assassinated. This currency never saw the light of day and it was back to the corrupted business as usual per the privately owned central bank of frauds and criminals.
Stop the central bank money creation/money laundering and a huge chunk of the corruption and crime in politics that goes along with it will also stop. it’s astonishing that this practice has been permitted to plague the world for so long.
I also agree with you. Except the whole concept of manipulation seems to be beyond the public’s capacity to understand, so I’m not surprised.
Putting it mildly, central bank money creation puts all its beneficiaries in a tactical advantage over the citizens having no access to it, as these ones use it to fund rigged elections, to pay off corrupted law makers, to wage wars, to inflict tyranny and wage propaganda campaigns and much more. not to mention they use it to live in shameless luxury and privilege. This horrendous, illegal practice has got to stop.

“I leave the 2oth century with no regrets.”

Investing in a stock and hoping it will decrease in value, for me, is a hard concept to understand.
It happens in craps, too, Marlin. Some people like to bet against the dice, hoping a 7 is thrown before the pass line number is thrown again. They are called “don’t” bettors. For that reason I understand short selling. If you buy stock, the lowest it can go down is to 0, so the most you can lose is your entire investment. If you short sell a stock, technically there’s no limit to how much you can lose – even many times your investment.
Pretty simple people sell margin calls.
One end says they will buy a stock if it hits $5 dollars or sell it when it hits $3 dollars.
If the stock never hits that 5 dollar mark they never buy it but if it hits that three dollar mark they are forced to buy it to then sell if for that lower price.
So one guy never really out puts money unless it goes low and they can sell those margins over and over and make money on each increment it climbs as long as it never drops.
They are selling a stock they don’t even hold.
i watch charts so it~s just the price moving up and down the chart that i use to make and lose money lol
charts still make the same patterns even though AI is involved.
simply put, if i short a stock at 80 i make money if it goes down and i ‘sell’ it for a lower price.
hey brh, how bout you let me sell your porsche for 80K, i~ll then buy the same one for 70K in a week or two when prices go down and give it back to you. I keep the 10K diff for myself
that~s pretty much what shorting is
Nah. Many of them are aspiring emperor types. One step away from fantastic levels of fame and riches. They play the market thinking they can actually win. My younger bro is this way. He is convinced all he has to do is outsmart the big fish.
He doesn’t seem to grasp the concept that the big fish get a heads up months in advance, and that the grill has already been oiled and preheated to 400 by the time he arrives.
Its far worse than that the stock market is using sophisticated AI that uses predictive programming.
No human can react fast enough and some of the biggest firms deal in billions of dollars worth of stock so it only has to go up or down a little to change lots of money out of peoples hands.
The big mover is WNDW it has gone straight up since Joe Biden was anointed emperor.
Right, benr. Doesn’t matter how smart you are.
Algorithms, no cost for billions of “scooping free pennies” transactions, Star Trek-like computer speed for beating the basement trader to the punch, deceptive market movements all predicated on finely-tuned psychological understanding of the minority who play with actual money (as opposed to thin-air numbers from Wall Street players, which make up the majority of the “value”).
If this were a card game, a Walmart greeter would have his pair of fives blinking in neon across his forehead opposite the table from Albert Bourla who doesn’t even have to have a good hand.
no question it’s going straight up under an illegitimate administration supposedly headed by great-grampa who needs assistance to wield something as simple as a ball point pen. Of course, that was the entire purpose of great grampa’s phony candidacy from the get go.

How do gold and silver get out of the ground, and then purified to .999%? It takes energy to operate machinery to dig it out, energy to process the metal, and energy to transport it to various manufacturers. In other words, the price of gold and silver is dependent on the price of oil to a certain degree. If we are past peak oil, or if international and American political tensions occur, then the price of oil rises. Then the price of precious metals must rise accordingly. So you have 2 separate industries co-dependent on each other. Our current system is so complex and filled with such interdependencies, that an event in one operating system could start a chain reaction leading to complete collapse of our society.
A useful and neat image of contrasting pricing which can be labeled the see-saw effect:
As stock market prices go up, gold and silver and oil go down. And the reverse is true.
Which brings us to demand destruction for oil. It’s already been happening for quite a while, but it’ll be nothing compared to the cratering market for oil when WTI crude (opposite of last year) goes through the roof.
I wouldn’t want to be a car salesman these days.
Yeah, gold and silver are the risk adverse reaction to risky times, such as now. Silver gets a boost because it is used in solar panels.
Oil seems to track how good the economy is doing, more demand, higher price. All that goes away if there are supply crises.
If you believe in JHK and peak oil, the price will continue to rise as supply declines. Idiots like the Dems in power right now may make an artificial supply crisis as they try to destroy the oil industry, like they tried to destroy the coal industry. Everyone needs to relax on this one, they are not going to get away with it.
Bill, there was plenty of gold mining before petroleum came into wide use.

In the 1850’s, Marlin, we didn’t have the same oil-dependent machinery as we do today, there were no autos, and very little electricity. Also, we had basically all our in-ground oil supply intact. You are correct, back in the 1850’s there wasn’t any real dependency between oil and silver. Today, however, is a different story.
Gold was wealth, you went shopping in Aspen, you paid bills with gold dust, or silver ore. Miners were paid by smelters for ore which was assayed out for its content.
Oil was needed for light! Oil was refined for lubricants for steam engines and kerosene. Gasoline was a waste product and was just thrown away. It was fortunate for the whales as whale oil was a prime source of light. Edison and Tesla invented the light bulb and electrical distribution. Rockefeller was in a bad spot until the internal combustion engine was invented. The rest is history.
Natural gas was in there somewhere with gas lighting on streets and in houses. They burned a lot of houses down with kerosene and natural gas so the electric bulb was a big safety improvement.
Steam engines run with coal were used in many hard rock mines to keep ground water pumped out. Ground water is what shut down a lot of mines, including the silver mines around Tombstone AZ.
Ground water in coal mines is why the steam engine was invented in 1756.
Energy was still expended to dig mines and pan in streams.
Only extremely stupid people, who will remain nameless, think that oil and gas will ever be replaced by renewables. In simplest terms, it takes oil and gas to make renewables and maintain them. It takes oil and gas to get the rare earths our world is dependent on. It takes oil and gas to run agriculture. It takes oil and gas to make plastics. Turn all the cars electric and we will still need lots of oil and gas to support electrical generation and lubricants for the cars.
High speed trains instead of airlines? We need both.
Our growth will absorb all the renewable sources of energy, we need all forms of energy for the future.
That is why the Democratic idiots stand a chance of destroying the world economy in their zeal to correct AGW. Their zeal may starve a lot of people to death.

Looks like a psyop…the rich couldnt do such evil things, could they?
In a way I actually felt like Anderson Cooper’s reaction to the accusations were off. Perhaps I am just overthinking it but its all a bit matter of fact for what on all accounts seems to be what most people would consider bizarre and troubling allegations to say the least. It’s almost like it was more of a quick tale of redemption for a previously inconveniently off the narrative reservation POC, and a humanization via faux humiliation of AC. He just really didn’t seem all that moved though one way or the other so not sure anyones mind is changed either way. Some say AC is an intel asset so it could be part of the whole psyop some people say it all is as well.
‘’Some say…’’ – the dead giveaway of a fabulist. It was laughable, much like your tortured apologist framing.

It’s yes and no at the same time. Reason:
Yes, I actually was able to move past it and I feel fantastic! You know, its kinda funny too. There was such a big fuss about it and all. But with all the burning and looting and insurrection going on for so long and being encouraged by the media and celebs and elected officials it seemed pretty tame tbhwy and like what’s the big deal. I mean to use the word insurrection to describe that is awfully silly but ok. Ya’ll make it up as you go. And really. The freakout about the sanctity of the temple.

Someone more eloquent than me puts it this way:
‘Democracy depends on a nonpartisan group of functionaries who are loyal not to a single strongman but to the state itself. Loyalty to the country, rather than to a single leader, means those bureaucrats follow the law and have an interest in protecting the government. It is the weight of that loyalty that managed to stop Trump from becoming a dictator—”

Your reading comprehension remains either sub-par or, more likely, just the usual narcissistic narrative-shaping blather.

After that Douche finished selling us out in Paris he winged over to Barritz to get in a week of Alpine skiing with the Prince of Monaco and the Marchioness of Linlithgrow, then flew down to the Mick Jaggers Island in the Caribbean for a well deserved rest in the sun. Yeah all those elitist f**kjers stick together, play together, and f##k us over together. I’m sure him and Mick got a good laugh when Kerry told him about engineered a Climate Deal that shoves it up the ass of every dumb rube from Dorchester to Salinas. “Wait till they flip the switch and the lights don’t go on. That’ll fix them rubes, haha”.
Mick uncorks another bottle of chilled champagne.

I read that both Bermuda and Guam had record low temps very recently. Apparently some tropical islands at least are maybe not feeling quite tropical at the moment. It would be interesting to know what the czar thinks on the matter. Has the burning planet created record lows or is Bill Gates’ plan to dim the sunlight coming to pass?
“20? of snow and colder than a witches left tit. Somebody tell the Climate Czar.”
There is a big difference between weather and climate. In fact 2020 tied with 2016 for the hottest year on record (world average temperatures).
However I dislike and distrust the John Kerry types – pretty intensely really. For their largely unearned wealth, their hypocrisy, and frankly – whether they remotely have the skills for the job … other than looking like a proper member of the Davos Club, and knowing which fork to use with the fish.
Also, it does appear that when Earth is warmer life flourishes much more so than when Earth is in its cold phase. Even though 2020 may have been a warm year there are still massive glaciers at both the North and South poles. In geological history, this is a very very unusual situation. Having so much ice in the world that is. The Earth overall has almost always been much warmer than it is now per the experts. And cyclically speaking we are overdue for things to get even colder.
The only encouraging thing in that blather is that, perhaps, you accept that Earth is more than 5,000 years old. Or am I reading too much into it?
Such a specious insulting dumbed down straw man argument.
You can do better or can you?
You come off as such an arrogant POS in almost EVERY post.
Benr, there was zero substance in that blather – in fact, it’s internally contradictory. SSL often speaks of her Christian belief, and living in the southern USA, there’s a 50/50 chance she’s a Young Earther.

I agree with much of the sentiment, however our problem is that we have 7.7 billion people, many right on the edge in all sorts of ways, and short-term global warming (a century or so?) as a result of excess CO2 could be pretty catastrophic.
So I am absolutely not a Global Warming Denier – there is simply far too much hard data, including to do with ice-melt – but I want a pretty forensic analysis of all the proposed solutions … so they are real solutions, not just (a) feel-good measures, or (b) weak outcomes so no-one’s political sensibilities are offended.
A Paris Climate Agreement without limits for China and India is pointless. The other huge issue is that solutions that cost too much will not be accepted or implemented, and solutions that cost hardly anything are probably not solutions at all.
There will have to be a decline in our standard of living (for all sorts of peak-everything reasons, including global warming), and as JHK has outlined for years, we can do that either in an orderly way, or the really hard way.
It’s over to us.
Well, pols have a responsibility to people now, not a century from now. Let the future take care of itself.
Tekapo
First off, I agree with your observations. The implementation of new technologies, actually not so new, is imperative if you believe in Peak oil.
My arguments are:
In 30 years, there will be a decline in oil production, even fracking. Cheap oil will be gone, already drilled. If we want any semblance of order, we better have a plan B.
If the world continues to populate, and economies continue to grow, we will need it all, fossil fuels, solar, nuclear, algae, wind, geothermal, hydrogen, you name it. As poorly as our government performs, we needed to start yesterday to have all avenues in place by 2050. Nuclear especially needs to be brought on line world wide, like in France. Why is it that China leads us in every category of alternative energy? We need to develop our own alternative industries using fossil fuels in the meantime.
The pipeline shutdown was the stupidest thing I have seen either party do in my 73 years. They are purposely fooling with people’s lives for their power gain. I hope this forms the core of the resistance and the third party. The rust belt felt they were screwed by Obama? Wait until the reaction of North Dakota and Texas to the oil shutdown. Oil will be needed in the future, regardless of what the ignorant politicians say. Forever.
Your observation that we need to understand the impacts of what we are doing before we do it is right on. My faith in science as the answer to everything has been seriously shaken. Why? Too many politics in those scientists. CO2 sequestration is a good example, how long and how much before we have an ice age. How much overshoot will happen? How many plants are we going to injure by reducing their supply of CO2? Beetle kill and dry forests right now should show us this danger.
The Paris Accord is a globalist joke. It really shows how really stupid government becomes when it gets too big. China and India have just kept blowing it off, building coal fired plants as needed. They have no interest in what occurs thirty years from now, they are just trying to keep up now. There is no punitive power in the Accord, that in itself makes it worthless. And the idea that we are going to bail out all the high polluters and developing word is ludicrous. Globally, just running the money presses does not work. Besides, we are almost thirty trillion dollars in debt now. Trump was right to get us out of this debacle. The Deep State is just as wrong to put us back in. I guess just another excuse to spend money needlessly.
The whole global warming thing has been a power grab by the globalists and our contingent, the Deep State, since the beginning. There are enough discrepancies in the data to make one wonder if the CO2 correlation is real. Is it heat islands, where heat is held in instead of radiating. It also correlates time wise to the warming. Could it be that with the heat being held in by asphalt and concrete, there is no increase in absorption by CO2. We do not know these answers. Urbanization has moved northward and southward toward the poles, could it be that that is heating the earth and contributing to the melt. Same with mountain glaciers. Should we spend our kids’ future on “pipe” dreams that accomplish nothing?
The quality of people in the US making these decisions are suspect. Their knowledge is superficial and many of them are just plain dumb. John Kerry comes to mind very fast along with his boss, Obama, that just do not have a clue. They are concerned about their power and the invasion of the globalists only. Both are suspect, trusting the Iranians to hold to that treaty when they have been developing nuclear weapons right along. Just recently, they have threatened they are weeks away from the bomb. Kerry wants to re-establish the treaty. ???? Climate czar, my ass. The hair looking for a brain!
The whole show the Dems are putting on shows very obviously they are just interested at incorporating every really dumb thing they wanted HRC to do four years ago. Their goal is obvious, domination of the Uniparty and implementation of Marxist style control.
Tekapo, you’re wasting your breath. These logical arguments have been doled out to the Crazies around since I can’t remember when. It’s hopeless.
so 2020 was the hottest year on record?
what about the 5 billion years for which records are unavailable?
i can show you norway without snow in 1908
I can show you a map showing Norway isn’t ‘the world’.
“what about the 5 billion years for which records are unavailable?”
Not relevant to current issues. About 3.5 billion years ago there were some single-celled organisms feeding on methane. So not really comparable with our present requirements to survive.
Humans have appeared, survived and thrived within a very narrow range of average global temperatures. We change those average global temperatures at our peril (but we’ll do it anyway, until the ability to do it stops).
5 billion years of climate data isn~t relevant to us
??? are you telling us that ???
“Greenland’s ice sheet shrank between 10,000 and 7,000 years ago, and has been slowly cumulating over the past 4,000 years. The current melting will reverse that pattern and within the next 1,000 years, if global heating continues, the vast ice sheet is likely to vanish altogether.”
I seem to be missing your point – perhaps I misunderstood what you were implying.
We have ice core records going back 130,000 years in Greenland and 800,000 years in Antarctica.
So I don’t get why your statement about Greenland’s ice sheets contradicts anything I said.
Leif Erickson and his horny adventurers settled Greenland less than 1000 years ago because the coast was arable land. Not today. We had a mini ice ages in the Middle Ages, because of volcanoes.
Our recorded history is meaningless in extrapolating the future, too little data, not long enough to show long term geologic and astronomical influences. 2020 was hot, how do we know that 2030 might be colder than norm. We don’t have a clue. 800000 years is nothing in geologic history, the ice ages have been going on for 65 million years, on and off. There is the scary part, why on and off. Again, we do not have a clue. Should we be messing with stuff we do not have a clue about?
Maybe trying to move toward nuclear and renewable, continuing to improve the performance of our combustion methods, and planting trees everywhere, and grass, and bushes, and algae, and kelp and every green thing we can cultivate. Again, we do not understand what a super green planet will do to improve the CO2 situation. Also, if we plant green everywhere and sequester CO2 what is the limit to keep us out of the next ice age? What if Etna, Krakatoa, and Hawaii all blow there tops at the same time in a natural geologic event. How about Yellowstone or Rainer, both overdue and rumbling.
We do not know much of anything and fooling around following scientists could be catastrophic.
Worst forest fires in the west 1910-1911
Hottest years in the 20th century: Dust Bowl 1930s
Period of the most intense hurricanes in the US, 1925-1938
A hurricane hit New England in 1630 that was so powerful that contemporary authors writing about King Philip’s War 1675-1676 commented on the wreckage of it that was still visible 45 years later.
We had major floods round here in 1850, 1913, 1936, 1938 and 1955.
In 1860 the Yangtze River in China flooded, killing 5.5 million people, the worst natural disaster of all time.
That’s just off the top of my head.

1970: ‘America subject to water rationing by 1974 and food rationing by 1980.’
1970: Ice age by 2000
1971: ‘New Ice Age Coming’
“Telltale signs are everywhere —from the unexpected persistence and thickness of pack ice in the waters around Iceland to the southward migration of a warmth-loving creature like the armadillo from the Midwest. Since the 1940s the mean global temperature has dropped about 2.7° F.
Scientists have found other indications of global cooling. Whatever the cause of the cooling trend, its effects could be extremely serious, if not catastrophic. Scientists figure that only a 1% decrease in the amount of sunlight hitting the earth’s surface could tip the climatic balance, and cool the planet enough to send it sliding down the road to another ice age within only a few hundred years.
Warns Hare: “I don’t believe that the world’s present population is sustainable if there are more than three years like 1972 in a row.”
Summers in the second half of the 20th century were warmer than those in the first half and it could be argued that this was a global warming signal. However, the average CET summer temperature in the 18th century was 15.46 degC while that for the 20th century was 15.35 degC. Far from being warmer due to assumed global warming, comparison of actual temperature data shows that UK summers in the 20th century were cooler than those of two centuries previously.”
Like economists, line up a group of scientists in a straight line and they will all be pointing in different directions.

I get it. Nothing is rule to you unless and until it’s in the mainstream media first. Women in constant spasm after the Covid vaccine doesn’t matter to you because it’s not real to you, unless and until the media acknowledges it. Can you forgive me for trying to broaden your world? Ditto Desmond the Tranny child. Not real, right? Even though he’s on youtube, etc. It has to be the NEWS, right? You’re a serious person, after all, but one with a sense of humor…..
Yohoho
That’s four times now you’ve mentioned the spasming ladies and I’m still waiting for the footage. Maybe then it will be real, if the footage looks genuine. You say ‘media’. This here is a medium. So let me see it. You seriously think I’m going to just take your word for it after all the devious fibs you’ve told?
I didn’t say ‘Desmond the tranny child’ didn’t exist. I said I didn’t watch the footage (a) because it wasn’t relevant to my post and (b) because you already know my views on transgenderism. In some detail. That you would probably fib about them is something over which I have no control.
And yes, I am a serious person, but one with a sense of humour. Not all days have something humorous in them and there’s no accounting for one’s brain chemistry on a particular day.
I’ve sent you the footage again and again. Twice in other words.
So you’ll have it handy? I don’t recall it appearing even once.
And ‘footage’ doesn’t mean some nutter on YouTube telling a fairy tale. Recall also tresho’s testimony that he’s seen people faking grand mal seizures.
I went to the trouble of doing a search and came up with nothing. Over to you.
one of my favourites is the scientist who warned that all the water in rivers in the US would be boiled off trying to cool electricity producing equipment
another one is the eminent scientist (so there must be a consensus, right?) who warned us that all the oxygen in the atmosphere would soon be consumed by the action of combustion engines
Indeed doom and gloom all to get another nice large grant to study this stuff.
How about the US representative, Democrat, that thought if we sent too many people to Guam, I think, that we would capsize the island. These people are making climate change decisions for us.
One thing is true. Our poles are our air conditioners. If we lose their ice covering and allow the waters to warms, the cooling afforded by the poles will be unavailable.
Our meteorological increase in wind speed is probably being caused by larger temperature gradient from the tropics to the poles. We are, however, losing the buffer at the poles. Does the whole planet just continue to heat up to a higher point if the pole ice goes to zero.
We do not have a clue.

You can possibly tell me if the Icelandic one was true. Allegedly, modern Icelanders are very proud of their ancient language and the fact that most of them can make a decent fist of it because it’s changed less than many other such archaic languages.
Language mutations and evolution are mainly driven, the author contends, by young people gathering among themselves, away from their parents. Iceland is so inhospitable that such gatherings of young people didn’t happen nearly so much as in other countries. Hence the language suffered slower change and Old Icelandic is not such a mystery to modern readers as the equivalent in those other countries.
Does that seem reasonable, from your experience?
the language remained very much unchanged due to the country~s isolation, which meant little intercourse with other tongues.
~wait, did i say that? ~
and yes, icelanders can understand 70% of old icelandic with ease
interesting side note: Icelandic still used Thee and Thou until about 1940, and I once, in the last century, crossed paths with one such individual who, upon travelling to the capital from her farm, asked me if the words were still being used.
Interesting, thanks!
Why do you use the Tilde? Why? Why!? Is it an Icealandic “thing”?
I ask for Q who watches from the other world….
GreenAlba testified, “Not that it matters, except to those of us who value facts.
We’re not going to fix it. We’re going to carry on arguing about it.”
Assumptions are not facts:
https://skepticalscience.com/global-warming-on-jupiter.htm
They set up a straw man “This argument is part of a greater one that other planets are warming. If this is happening throughout the solar system, clearly it must be the sun causing the rise in temperatures – including here on Earth.”
Could there be other reasons, such as the entire solar system is traveling through an area of space with higher energies?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0jHsq36_NTU
I am happy for you to believe that the moon is made of green cheese, MD. I have reached serenity on the matter. 🙂
But I’d suggest ‘testified’ is a bit heavy in the context!
Tit for tat…
Well GA, earth is ripping around the sun at 67,000 mph, and spinning at 1080 mph. The solar system itself is moving thru space at 450,000 mph. Maybe there is something to what messianicdruid is saying.
And who ever said earth’s climate was stable? Up to 20,000 years ago there was a 2 mile thick ice sheet over where I am right now, one that extended from the arctic to LI Sound. Then it all melted, and the Ice Age came to and end.
When Climate fanatics get our nuclear and natgas powerplants shut down it’ll us out here living in the dark and freezing; the Climate Czar and Obama out on the Vineyard will still have plenty of juice to keep their mansions warm and lit, and the yachts and private jets powered up, don’t worry.
Brh
JeZus MS, I hope at some point the sun don’t break loose, leaving planet earth in its wake. We’ll be f#kkd!
GA attests, “We change those average global temperatures at our peril (but we’ll do it anyway, until the ability to do it stops).”
This is like playing freeze-out with the heater on and congratulating yourself for defeating Old Man Winter.
If you say so, MD.
The Other Game: Covid White Paper
I flew to Italy two weeks before the “Pandemic” closed the country. After a week in Italy, I flew to Africa and spent several days in bed with a severe flu type sickness. I had a high temperature, extreme tiredness and a lingering chest issue which developed into bronchitis. ( I am 75 years old and I have several comorbidities including severe pulmonary hypertension). By the end of the second week, I treated the bronchitis with a Z-pack and got well by the end of the third week. The return trip to the United States was difficult since Trump shut down the airlines. When I got back, I started researching the issue and I found a study by John Ioannidis from Stanford. He analyzed the Diamond Princess Cruise Ship which was a Petri Dish for the alleged virus and determined that we should not shut down the country and jump off a cliff. His argument made sense to me and then we jumped off the cliff based on the flawed judgment of Neil Ferguson of Imperial College. By April 1, 2020, after many hours of research, I was convinced that the shutdown was a mistake and was possibly the biggest public policy mistake in the history of medicine. Now in February of 2021, my thinking has been proven correct although most of the citizens of the United States have been brainwashed by the major media which has proven to be fake news.
In law, there is a concept called: “burden of proof.” Since the Covidians (my word for people who believe the Covid Myth) claim there is a horrible disease that requires masks, social distancing and a lockdown of the society, I am putting the burden of proof on them and they cannot prove their case.
The following are true facts (These are true until the Covidians can prove they are not true)
1. The SARS-COV-2 virus has not been proven to exist.
2. Once it has been proven to exist, it must then be proven to be the pathogen that is causing the
Covid-19 “Pandemic.”The “Pandemic” is a result of classifying flu deaths, etc. as Covid Deaths
3. All peer reviewed science over the last 50 years has proven that masks will not prevent the spread of a virus.
4. Social Distancing and Lockdowns will not prevent the spread of a virus. The virus will be a virus.
5. The Lockdowns are the largest public policy mistake in history. They have destroyed our economy and will result in more deaths than the “virus.”)
6. The “vaccines” have not been proven to be safe or effective. The mRNA technology is new and has not been adequately tested in humans and is not a vaccine. The jab is a trial, the victims are guinea pigs and anyone who gives the jab without full disclosure of its experimental nature and possible side-effects is violating the Nuremburg Code and is a war criminal. The drug company cannot be sued for injuries.
7. The PCR test is useless.
8. The number of respiratory deaths is in line with previous years.
Here is my challenge to the Covidians: You are the ones suggesting that we continue to destroy our society. Prove your beliefs are true. The burden is on you.
You will never get satisfactory responses from a Branch Covidian.
The most accurate term I have heard to describe the fiasco is Plandemic. All the PR was ready to go. Economic destruction is the aim; then we can “Build Back Better” with a security state so oppressive, governance so centralized, and society so managed you will forget what freedom ever felt like.
A friend sent me an interesting Bitchute round table where Dr Miskovits and a Dr Kaufman got into an angry debate. He claimed the Covid virus had never been isolated. He may not even believe in viruses. Miskovits said that they can’t be isolated since by their very nature they do not stand alone. It got heated with Kaufman calling her a liar and a fraud.
What was he a doctor of? Naturopathy? He may have some interesting points, but the virus model seems to work, even if we have to infer their existence by their effects, not just sickness, but observed changes in the cells. As to seeing them directly, is it possible? Or are they just too small if “isolated”.
Imagine if beings of fire who lived on suns tried to study us by isolating us away from our world and into theirs: We’d burn up.
They both agree with your premises that the vaccine isn’t one, but rather untested gene therapy. And beyond that, that public health was often a disaster.
Did vaccines used to be safe or at least safer? Before they put all the crap into them?
I tried posting the Bitchute here, but it doesn’t take. Great opening song called “Safety Mask” to the tune of Safety Dance.
Safety Mask song:

Media Bear. Yes!
You throw out a lot of supposition as fact but perhaps the most idiotic is that “social distancing will not prevent the spread of a virus.”
Regardless of your feelings on the overreaction and shutdown, anyone willing to try and pass that statement over as anything other than total horseshit isn’t coming from a place anywhere near rational thinking.
It won’t prevent the spead for three reasons:
1. You cannot get millions of people to social distance.
2. The scientific and medical communities do not know how far “the virus” can travel. There have been multiple theories on how far away one must be to limit exposure to the point needed to stop transmission, and some suggest much farther than 6 feet.
3. “The virus” can live on surfaces for a period of time after exiting the body. Some surfaces are partiularly welcoming, such as cardboard.
Regardless, “the virus” is not particularly dangerous, and the virus narrative is a hoax, so all of this is moot.
And you’ll support this statement by citing multiple, repeatable scientific experiments in real-world situations?
My question refers to the “horseshit” statement by Raindogs
You won’t get a response from dogturd eater.
He/she/it is a drive by troll with a nasty disposition.
Federal investigators recommending no charges for the officer that shot Ashli Babbitt,
She was technically committing a crime and died unnecessarily (depending on your take on that story). Same as George Floyd was technically committing a crime and died unnecessarily (depending on your take on that story).
My impression is they are trying to goad low-brow conservatives to act out and maybe riot in order to justify cracking down even more on them.
They’ll create their justification soon enough. Might as well not just give it to them. Stay home and write your representatives like a civilized citizen, folks.
I signed up after a long hiatus away from JHK’s lurch to the far right for reasons I’ll never quite comprehend.
I used to enjoy the actual, intelligent, comprehensive and well thougt out and civil debates between posters….but alas….the place turned into an amalgam of NewsMax and OAN.
This essay today is a refreshing return to the JHK that I used to read religiously before the deceptive “Great Gollum” title was bestowed by JHK in an attempt to seem “non partisan”.
But…as I see here in the comments section, those with centrist or even center-right sensibilities of the Republican party of old…are gone. Driven away by…
Managing somehow…to turn a a Redditor’s game against WallStreet—into something about BLACK LIVES MATTER and the election being “stolen” from “woksters”.
Whatever. Either this place is nothing but trolls that will never, ever support Mr. K in his attempt to turn a profit via Patreon (I recall when he started that shuck and jive crap begging for financial support….socialism much, JHK?)……or …..well…..nah….full of trolls.
Nice essay today, though. Since, in reality, there is nothing else to write about….and the whole “holographic Joe” schtick is nothing but a sore losers’ lame attempt at remaining relevant.
Long hiatus = got banned last week and has returned again.
Hilarious.
You denying that you are Majella/Freddie Mars is the height of comedy.
I haven’t denied anything. Clearly. This is the first comment I’ve made since I was on this site when K-Dog and that group were here years ago.
Nope. I actually emailed JHK about admiring his performance on “Prophets of Doom” with Michael Ruppert and Nate Hagans…ask him about it. I’m a Nurse in NY and had a private conversation with him about my observations at the start of COVID. He’s in Saratoga, I was in Albany.
Nopity. Nope Nope. Sorry, fellas. Trollville is what this site has turned into, sadly. As evidenced by your nonsensical responses that I’ve “denied” something without every saying a word.
Jim jumped on that “angry white men are being emasculated” by the left train…and hoped that the purse strings would open for him as well…as it did for the “Great Gollum” and his criminal family enterprise….although JHK always has had a timber sized chip on his shoulder about his idea of white masculinity being destroyed in this country.
Macho men in the mindless tradition of Mussolini and Duterte….are being shown the door, thankfully so. Dumpy had his little party and now the realization that yes….75 million people did vote for the guy, but a large portion of them not because of who he is or what he stands for.
They voted R because they’ve always voted R and cannot pull the lever for a D, no matter the cost. Or they’re narrow issue or singular issue voters. The next guy (or…GASP!….WOMAN!) who speaks to the Evangelicals or tickles Wall Street just right….will have the full throated support of “the base”….minus the little sliver that makes up “MAGAtLand”.

The particularly hilarious troll claims I’m a returned banned poster, so his jibe was at me, not thee.
You are, Redneck.
You are Majella.
Along with

‘Trump will be put on Mt Rushmore’
‘Masks equal enslavement’
‘Soros is paying trolls on this blog’
‘Corona virus is a hoax’
‘I’m rich’
you have a pretty shitty record of accuracy. But gaslighting is your thing so you go right ahead…
My record is impeccable. Only two predictions wrong, but they were related.
Your history of foil and bannings speak for themselves.
awwww – “Jim jumped on that “angry white men are being emasculated” by the left train…”
Ummm..you’re saying they arent? Have you read any piece of news in the past four years…particularly the last week and a half?
Your ability to ignore the actual facts and self-aggrandize through specious claims of ‘accuracy’ is mind-numbing. But then, narcissists are wired that way, so it’s not really your fault.
Yes, Maj.
And Trump Dictator.
LOL.
https://www.axios.com/trump-oval-office-meeting-sidney-powell-a8e1e466-2e42-42d0-9cf1-26eb267f8723.html
In the end, Trump listened to his Deep State advisors who counselled surrender to defeat. It was so much easier and more attractive. A counter-coup was a huge risk that might not work. He figured he could beat the coming charges against him and still be the head of the Republican Party. Also he was ambitious for Don Jr, Eric, and Ivanka. Didn’t want to ruin their chances by doing anything heroic. Thus his last gambit was the lame Pence play – something doomed to fail given who Pence is and the weight of ceremonial precedent.
If you have triumphed, you hang your sword on the wall. Soon it is seen as a mere decoration. The idea of using it seem not only utterly barbaric, but gauche and ridiculous. Thus did Herschmann (sp?) berate General Flynn. It’s like the Police: in a well ordered society, there is little crime. So why do we need all these police for? It’s like Fascism or something, man!
Thus in the end, (listen to Morrison’s This is the End), Trump listened to Hersh and Meadows and their swan song of summer meadows and hershey bars. But in reality, Winter was coming and the Wolf was at the door.
Great take on the Gamestop debacle.

Thanks Maj. You are a force majeure. You go old girl. Why can’t our Maj be like this Maj?

Trump dictator? Clorox? Manchurian Trump?
She has the factz.
Tell us again about ‘The Storm’ Narc Troll. And about the compromised voting machines etc. Do you have a spare billion with which to settle the impending law suit?
No, wait…you have nothing to fear because your whole ‘universe’ is limited to this blog commentary.
You’ve several times admitted that you’d NEVER postulate your ridiculous conspiracy claims in the REAL world, where you sell your soul to a ‘blue chip corporation’ for material wealth. Really, a person of admirable convictions? No…a sell-out and avaricious with it.
Those aren’t “conspiracies,” Jello.
There is a mountain of hard evidence showing election fraud. Actual reports with verifiable evidence you can go read right now from Ms. Powell and Mr. Pulitzer.
Unlike your claims about The Manchurian Candidate, bleach injection, and the White Ethnostate.
That you have posted this batshit twaddle under three different names now is beyond parody.
Why return to a place that doesn’t want you?
Is this Marjorie of the ‘Secret Jewish Space Laser” claim? Hilarious.
Narc Troll disclaimed the DEW aspect as being ‘not credible’ the other day.
However, he may have changed his mind now that it is known who was promulgating the nonsense.
The DEW stuff is not credible to me. That does not mean it did not or could not happen.
Big brain in action.
Hilarious! I’m surprised you walked that one back so readily. Must have a thing for your Q Anon compatriots, huh? If the MTG nut job says it, it just might be true, even though you don’t find it credible. That’s some nuclear-level cognitive dissonance you have there, Narc Troll.
I confirmed what you posted. I do not think DEWs were used.
Anything here could potentially be true, however, because we don’t actually know what caused the fires.
Big brain in action.
Just keep repeating “I have a big brain, I have a big brain, I have a…’ Eventually you’ll convince yourself and possibly a few others around here. Good luck.
The information in the post confirms that my brain is far larger than yours.
Which is why you have no response.
This has played out in every post since you posted as Majella.
It is great fun.
“Why can’t our Maj be like this Maj?”
Our Maj has a brain and some self-respect. Plus she doesn’t know any Jewish people who own space-based lasers.
Tekapo, don’t YOU start on this ‘Maj’ bullshit too, please.
I was just pointing out that Our Maj is sensible, intelligent, kind, and immensely good-looking – whereas the other Maj is a QAnon crackpot nutter. But I will not raise the name “Maj” again …
QAnon crackpot Marj. vs. Nazi-Bleach Moonbat Maj.
Cage fight!

akmofo affirms, “Your gods made you forget who you are. Lost souls serving Caesar.”
I was lost [ appolumi ]. Now I am redeemed. Who is your avenger, aka Kinsman Redeemer?
Who?
I am! And no one else!
You cannot be redeemed by another, just as another cannot forgive on your behalf. Because otherwise you might as well not have existed at all. Which is exactly what Romanism is all about in trying to negate. Nothing is of consequence and everything goes. It’s pure Satanism.
Another reason to detest J.P. Morgan: Reported on Axios.
JPMorgan Chase announced a new $30 billion commitment over the next 5 years to advance racial equity, especially for Black and Latinx Americans.
(VOMIT)
It’s bad enough that J.P. Morgan corrupts our financial system and our politics. Now they insist on corrupting our society and culture by enlisting their megabucks in the cause of racist anti-white identity politics.
Globalists are truly the nexus of all evil in this world.
“Now they insist on corrupting our society and culture by enlisting their megabucks in the cause of racist anti-white identity politics.”
I don’t love JP Morgan, but what is so problematic about them having a targeted $30billion fund aimed at minorities? Isn’t one of the problems with the country that there are a lot of poor people who need some pro-active assistance?
And realistically, $6billion a year is loose change for a bank of that size … lots of PR in the move, no doubt. But still, better than nothing.
Round here, only white people are deserving of special treatment, Tekapo.
What happened to the “white ethnostate”?
You never followed up.
You keep going on about this “White Ethnostate” but you’re the only person I can recall using the words. I had to google the phrase to get any idea of what the fuck you’re on about. Gaslighting becomes ineffective if you don’t change up your material a little from time to time.
I have no need to change up. You provided the material.
“what is so problematic about them having a targeted $30billion fund aimed at minorities?”
Interesting use of the word “at” instead of “for” minorities.
I suspect you’re more correct than you know.
Such clever fellows, these MAGA ‘mostly peaceful’ protesters:
CNN conducted an investigation into some of the insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol on January 6th, only to find out that many of them didn’t even vote in the 2020 election.
At least eight of the people currently facing federal charges for their roles in the riots didn’t vote. These people come from all different backgrounds and are of different ages. These Trump supporters somehow had the time to travel to Washington and possibly even take off work, but they didn’t have the time to cast a ballot themselves. How were these people so sure the election was stolen, when they as diehard Trump fans didn’t even bother to go to their local polling place?
The big picture of this story is that there are many people who complain about the government and believe themselves to be politically active, but they don’t vote. They will share memes on Facebook and tune into cable news commentary shows every night but when it’s time to cast a ballot, they don’t. Typically in presidential elections, half of eligible voters stay home. There is a growing disconnect in this country between what people believe political activism to be and what it actually is. Voting is the most crucial thing citizens must do to take part in the political process, and yet so many don’t do it.
how do you know they didn~t vote? multiple times?
you are against voter ID and signature verification, remember, it~s racist
maybe they voted under fake names, there were only 80 million unsolicited ballots mailed out, with no chain of custody, with ballot harvesting legal
why the concern with recording who voted // didn~t vote?
votes don~t matter, you leftists didn~t even count the votes in your own primaries
Um…didn’t your guy complain bitterly of how “low class” his supporters appeared at his riot?
Because they are. Uneducated, uninformed, easily lead and easily deceived.
They’re all crying now. “Can’t you just let me go to Mexico with my friends while out on bail???” How unfair of that judge to hold a white woman accountable. What nerve of a judge to impose the rule of law on a MAGAt.
“It wasn’t ME! TRUMP told me to go there!” “Not my fault! I got caught up in the moment! I’m really a good man!”
Whatever. Low class. The one and only thing I actually agree with dumpsterfire on…his followers are mindless, low rent, uneducated and unable to critically think anything through. Always blaming others for their own behavior.
“Whatever. Low class.”
I really think that’s the wrong approach. I didn’t like Donald Trump one bit (for lots of reasons), and I’m not a fan of Joe Biden at all (for lots of reasons), but I think it’s totally misguided for anti-Trumpers to write off MAGA supporters as knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers who can barely pay rent in the trailer park.
The whole point about Trump’s success in 2016 (and his serious following ever since) was his skill at speaking to the really disaffected and dispossessed working class and lower-middle class – people who ought to have voted for Clinton but did not.
Trump was 99% bullshit – but he was pretty good at it.
If the Biden-Harris administration is going to have a successful four years, they really need to understand and respond to the very genuine needs and problems of the 70 million who voted for Trump on Nov 3 – and still support the guy.
If they don’t do it they will be failures, both in terms of working “for America”, and also in terms of any re-election aspirations. Aiming for a minimum pay rise, and supporting Obamacare – are not a bad start.
Tekapo, it was Trump himself who called them “low class” just before he threw them under the bus.
Pointing out that that behavior was not the intent of the rally and then telling them to go home peacefully after it escalated was not “throwing them under the bus”. He probably saved many people from injury and jail.
Imagine the potential escalation if he had actually said differently. Which, of course is what the establishment was really hoping and praying for.
But instead they got just enough of a riot to then censor the actual footage of the events and his speech to then outrageously claim Pearl Harbor status. And then making it an un-challengable opinion for all time. Quite lame.
‘Quite lame’ – MrMango
If it has all been viciously misrepresented as so many around here claim, why are so many of those “peaceful tourists” using Trump’s geeing them up for weeks, even months, as their only (and useless) defense?
Trump should have stood up for his base, period. He wimped out.
It’s stunningly ignorant to paint all Trump supporters as ‘deplorables’ and mouth-breathers and knuckle-draggers.
There were angry Green Party voters who are anything but stupid, voting for Trump. Why? Biden is a horror and the Democrat party wants to usher in draconian new totalitarian measures, force mask us, endless lockdown, continue burning down cities with its Antifa SS, etc.
Trump didn’t start any wars. My anti-war friends on the left voted for him because of that. These are highly educated and informed people, on top of the issues of the day.
It’s seriously glaringly ignorant to paint all Trump supporters with one brush.
You just described liberals to a T.
They want to be victims so badly they are now identifying as freaks in order to get special attention, preferential treatment, and lots of sympathy… poor things.
Some extra serious dose of stupid here.
There was a week or two of some respite. Now they’re back.
I wonder what triggers them? Is it the talk about the stock market?
Capitol insurrection foil.
It never ends.
LOL.
Right. It was just a group of sightseers, on an unguided tour.
Considering the public ally available evidence – which we’re all still waiting for regarding the election fraud – you just can’t call it for what it was. It was hilarious, in the end, but it was an insurrection, whether YOU can admit it or not.
Doubling down on the foil.
Nazis, insurrections, dictators — oh my.
LOL.
No kidding talk about making a mountain out of a molehill.
This insurrection is nothing compared to the outright destruction being wrought across progressive cities all around Murica.
I love the dogs (anteeefa) are off the leash and biting the hand that has fed and ignored them all along.
They hate lil Joey as much as they hated the donald.
Yeah typically, agents provacateurs, mercenaries, crisis actors and Antfa are probably not typical voters.
And, you can be politically active and also recognize that voting is rigged, and hate both parties, so opt out of voting.

Yes, benr, of course it is. Fear porn is what “Infowars” is all about. (Remember the gay frogs?). The ‘war’ referred to is Alex Jones’ set of ‘alternative facts’ v. actual facts.
The level of “ChickenLittlism” around here since the election result was confirmed has become alarming. From the wailings of JohnAZ et al and the “Leftie/Commie” takeover to the truly ridiculous Plandemic, the Coronahoax, “Trump isn’t going anywhere” and “Pence will toss out the Certified Votes” from the resident narcissist troll…it’s all become quite hilarious.
It was about discussion and like him or not Alex is entertaining!

Calling people who see right through the covid hoax ‘paranoid’ while you tremble in fear of a virus with a population fatality rate of 0.027% (if it even exists at all – who knows, it hasn’t been isolated) is pretty precious.

Glenn Greenwald speculates that another competitor Hedge Fund might be behind the Reddit GameStop attack that might bankrupt that big powerful Wall Street Hedge Fund? If so, I wonder if the Elites are starting to cannibalize each other? If the economy continues to implode because of the Covid 19 lockdowns, the Elites might start to devour each other like starving rats aboard a mental asylum ship aimlessly adrift at sea in order to maintain their profits?

Horrendous!! But a story of dedication nonetheless. Willard was a victim of circumstance and the cruelties of life and time. I’m not predisposed to giving any such benefit of the doubt to the “Elite”. They have knowingly sewn chaos and pain. Perhaps its time they take a ride on the elevator they prepared for everyone else.

“Who-the-Hell is Socrates?!”
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lSn4TqoY6mg
Socrates: A 70 year old Greek philosopher who told the Authoritarian corrupt Elite of Athens to go fuck themselves rather than falsely confess to a crime that he didn’t commit. Socrates basically committed suicide rather than sacrifice his freedom for a few more years of miserable existence in a corrupt society. Socrates would be an example of Stoicism?
Read Plato’s “Apology”
Women and their proclivity towards feeling “Safe” (Love) basically represent “Cowardice”, right?
In effect, yes.
Unlike our host, I believe the gamestop stuff is another hoax to let the stockmarkets and assorted stuff (*pensions*) slide and blame it on the white financial terrorists.
For those interested in trying a bird’s view:
1.Chinese have all their feativals clustered around Feb/March. Being recently poor, it is considers bad to spend unnecessarily. Thus most will work like dogs, and only spend on the month of the Chinese New Year.
2.Chinese are easily scared of epidemics.
Last year, they couldn’t spend their saved money. Just after the festival period passed, China said the virus was totally eradicated and thus all can go to work like dogs again.
Now, virus is raging again. No need to spend any of their money! I am sure China will be super efficient in eradicating the virus by middle of March.
Next year, the evil outsiders will send another virus wave.
In 2030, instead of buying red money-papers to burn to their ancestors, the Chinese can burn the real stuff they had been hoarding.
Summary: Even andrew anglin is getting it wrong about an incoming US-China war. There is a conspiracy, born of necessity. The necessity to survive the end of the black juice and the utter failure of the solar dream.
The middle class is destroyed everywhere because it cannot continue. The nobles, of course, will always exist.
The noblity, in turn, knows the hoarded billions are worthless. It just happens to be their obligation to stop runaway inflation by reducing the velocity of money to near zero.
They will get others perks though like Bill Gate’s 250000 acres but I dont see anything unexceptional.
They are doing their duty to the best of their abilities.
Maybe RE: your last sentence. But, I don’t think the end of fossil fuels is all that near.

A reset provides a convenient way to cancel it all out; destroy the middle class and buy up cheap property and the means of production in order to usher in neo-feudalism; impose medical tyranny to control who gets what and who goes where (as with the social credit score in China); and to continue the march toward a government that is increasingly centralized at the global level. The result? Control.
The faux pandemic is the perfect tool with which to usher in the change, as anyone who questions it can be pushed out of society either via social pressure or by force.
Tinfoil. Hilarious.
I count 5 hard facts in there, and some suppositions based on facts.
Got nothing onTrump’s devious plan to inject bleach into our veins.
Your evidence literally changed the world.
You did not deserve your multiple bans.
Your view that Chinese are cheap is true they can pinch a penny with the best of them until its something they want and then they will spend bigly.
My experience as well.
The transgenders want to turn Women’s Sports into a Racket to benefit the Transgenders and to basically cheat biological women out of legitimate Sports by permitting biological men to compete against biological women?
What is it about Americans these days that they instinctively want to Rig everything for their own benefit, be it the medical system, the stock market, the MSM, race and gender hustles, the electoral voting system, and now Women’s Sports? The Society is pervasively dishonest.
“What is it about Americans these days that they instinctively want to Rig everything for their own benefit,”
Been that way forever in The Land of the Free, Pucker. From snake-oil salesmen to fraudulent land deals to cattle thieves to the Chicago White Sox and PT Barnum.
And the US reneged on every Treaty it signed with them Red Injuns too!
No other country in history has ever looked for any advantages and tried to have things it’s own way besides the United States. We’re the only country.
Exceptionalism has its advantages.
I can recall a time not long ago when newspapers had teams of reporters who would aggressively follow leads on legitimate stories and newspaper editors who would exercise quality control over news reports in order to verify their authenticity. The system was not perfect, but at least one had some assurance that newspapers weren’t making shit up.
And I can recall a time not long ago when we really had markets with some legitimate price discovery and elections that weren’t totally rigged.
I blame Rupert Murdoch … he said Nothing Matters and Nobody Cares.
Oh ok wow, so this is your final admission and acceptance that the election was rigged. Awesome and congrats as you enter the next phase of your journey!
“Oh ok wow, so this is your final admission and acceptance that the election was rigged.”
Settle down dude … not sure what pharmaceuticals y’all are on, but I would check the Use By Date!
I can’t buy what you’re selling. I remain totally sceptical that there was any election fraud at all. For one, the Democrats are not that coordinated, and for two, the Republicans (including Orange Man) could not get to first base in a single law suit.
I appreciate that Team Rudy weren’t the sharpest knives in the drawer – but still – if there was any funny stuff in all those Republican-controlled swing states, surely SONEONE would have found something substantial.
Even Jewish space-based laser beams have more cred! 🙂
Actually you are the one selling and I am the one not buying but you haven’t yet figured that out. 😉 You fail to acknowledge the obvious insitutional roadblocks that were put up to stop any serious investgation from proceeding. They are “impeaching” a former president who is no longer in office. So what could be more of a clear sign that all of our institutions have failed us. From this example alone it is clear that the Constitution is ignored.
Agent Tekapo slips up again.
LOL.
’ . They are “impeaching” a former president who is no longer in office. ’
Next time a cop pulls you over for speeding, just argue that you’ve stopped speeding now, and that he should just move on.
“You fail to acknowledge the obvious institutional roadblocks that were put up to stop any serious investigation from proceeding.”
Yes – I am the first to concede that I find it deeply puzzling that – given at least some prima facie evidence in various places – that Team Trump couldn’t make anything whatsoever stick.
And let’s never forget, the majority of states, and the majority of the critical swing states, had Republican officials deep into the election process. All of them bar Nevada.
The only conclusion that makes sense is that there was a deep anti-Trump bias among Republicans everywhere. Joe Biden and the Democrats didn’t have to do anything … they just had to take the win gracefully.
Meanwhile, I have no difficulty with the Democrats holding the impeachment trial after Donald Trump has left office (and let’s recall the impeachment itself occurred while Trump was still in office).
The purpose is of course political – but also to see if enough Republicans wish to bar Trump from running again.
I think the Republicans have a really big problem they need to solve pretty quickly – are they going to keep Trump to pacify the base, or are they going to turf him out, and start again. Tricky.
@redneck
ROTFLOL strawman whataboutism on roids!
Guess what impeachment is about throwing out a sitting President this is kabuki theatre at best and unconstitutional at worst.
I might also add a complete waste of time and money.
The only positive thing coming out of this the longer they dither around with this the les time they have to pass unconstitutional laws that remove freedoms and liberties!
Time for a complete reset of all people in office just fire them all and start over.
It isn’t “whataboutism,” it is a comparison that fails on a fundamental level. A comparison that someone with the reasoning skills of a middle-school-aged Maori would make.
I demand Trump Dictator foil next time!

Bright And Shiny – Yes, Danny Trejo eventually shows up as…the leader of a biker gang.
Hey Puck you used to have a lot to say about Pete Buttgieg and his husband Chasten. I saw clips of Buttgigs appearance on The View, the women were swooning, almost appeared they were about to drop to their knees in front of Mayor Pete, and every time Chasten’s name was mentioned a roar of approval went up with the audience. Bittgieg stated he plans on introducing Social Justice, Equity, and Climate Justice into the Dept of Transportation. I’m not sure how this guy is qualified to be Secy of Transportation other than having spent nights in truckstops.
They don’t get to vote next time. Can we agree on that much at least?

I’m not sure why you have trouble with this one – you’ve said often enough that Michelle Obama is a bloke, Obama is gay and the children merely actors.
You also seem to believe all the tinfoilery spouted by Narc Troll…and you seem to also believe that “the sky is falling!” Since Trump was dumped.

If you do you not only lack common sense but a soul as well.
What’s the Climate Czar up to?
Headed to the Cap d’Antibes on the French Riviera, joining other international jet setters.
The Climate Czar is worried about global warming but he always travels to warm, balmy places in winter. It’s not for the Climate Czar to suffer sub freezing temps and sideways sleet of a miserable Boston winter. The Climate Czar needs to be in a sunny place when he makes his plans to sell us out to international oligarchs and globalist elites. It’s hard work.
Nice gig if you can get it.
Kathy Boockvar, the Secretary of State in Pennsylvania who was a major component of the election scam and theft strategy has resigned from her post after she failed to advertise an amendment to the state’s constitution which would extend the statute of limitations for child sex abuse victims to file actions in civil court against their abusers. Wow! Seriously? I mean, I guess its a total coicindence that someone who knew every move to make to ensure the election outcome in PA was DNCglobally compliant just didn’t have the wherewithal to remember that it was required that this constitutional amendment be advertised prior to the election to start the process of getting the amendment on the ballot. In looking into just the surface of Boockvar’s professional history and associations it appears she is a minion of the Rothschilds and Soros and is on board with the reset. Some people even say she has more direct connections to human trafficking and has advocated for depopulation. I can’t confirm that but it would be worth investigating.
One is reminded of Mr Book in Dark City. Who caught her on this? A great catch indeed.
Ah! It gets even more interesting. So she apparently caught herself. Well, the agency realized about a week ago that through “human error” the process had essentially fallen through the cracks. So being a conscientious professional she prooffered her resignation of course with an unofficial twitter statement about how accountability and leadership are cornerstones of public service. The PA AG and victims rights advocates say this was routine procedure that shouldn’t have been missed and that this is a major setback for victims. It looks like lots of outlets covered it but I was reading this article.

A crushing blow. Some were getting ready to wear three and four, eager to be the most virtuous. As Tucker called him, a malignant buffoon. The little creep should be up on charges along with Cuomo and Gates.
He said this at the beginning of all of this nonsense, too. I posted the video a few times.
Seems to me he wants to leave an exit open, as the foundation of the Hoax is crumbling. PCR fraud, mask fraud, and HCQ effectiveness news all dumping in a rather concentrated time frame has him scrambling.
With his current approach to PR, depending on which way the winds blow, his reputation won’t be all too sullied.
The man is a criminal at worst, and a criminal enabler at best. Time will tell.
This latest mask mislead just seems to show how little they care about how what they are doing is tearing society apart. Cuomo’s recent who cares blurb seals the deal. I mean even for some former true covidian believers these things are now a bridge too far.
Hard to conclude that this isn’t the point. The economic damage alone only makes sense if it is meant to be this way. Couple that with the transition to a digital world, and I would say there can be almost no doubt that it is on purpose.
Millions of people are being left hung out to dry, and there is very little in the way of jobs or economic stimuli to replace what is being taken or support what is failing.
“In the future you will own nothing, and you will be happy.”

The EOs Bedpan Biden signed yesterday ensure a whole new labor force will be coming in from South of the border, easily manipulated, willing to work for peanuts, just happy to be here and out of the squalid, diseased, blood soaked, corrupt sh#tholes they came from.

Shades of Joseph forcing the Egyptians to sell themselves into slavery in order to have some of their own grain to eat. Yet the Churches extoll this devil as someone great.
Who was Joseph?
remember David and Goliath? David cheated.
Not sure about that. Remember, tournament or sport is one thing, combat is another. I know the Bible better than you, and I don’t remember any rules being laid down. If it was a contest, a young man of normal size wouldn’t have been put it with a giant, experience warrior.
Well, malt ass, let me inform you:
Joseph is the Jewish guy that invented the Hebrew alphabet, of which a corrupt backwards derivative you use today to read this text.
David is the half Jewish guy from Median, and later King of the Jews, who beat a fully armored and metal clad giant champion Greek warrior, a human tank, with a simple stone he got from a nearby creek.
Judah the Maccabee, was a Jewish freedom fighter and first warrior to employ guerrilla warfare against a professional army. He beat the army of the Greek Empire, and made obsolete the until then unbeatable Greek Phalanx military formation. Hanukkah is celebrated in his honor and victory.
All thee are examples of ingenuity. Something you have ZERO of. And that’s why you’re a ZERO.
Joseph, David, Judah? Pffft!

They could at least lay their cards on the table openly.
“[…] the presenters had received decent geology educations from legitimate institutions. Geologically, they could talk the talk and walk the walk. But why? What is the point of giving a talk on marine strata in the late Cretaceous, as Marcus Ross of Liberty University, a Christian college in Lynchburg, Virginia, did, when you actually think the Earth is only a few thousand years old?
“The point is to be able to claim legitimacy. Creationists have used their participation in conferences to argue that their ideas are taken seriously by real scientists.”
So, what do you think of them giving lectures on stuff that roundly contradicts their own beliefs? Wouldn’t it be more honest just to hold their own conferences?
I don’t give a shit what “Earth Magazine” or “New Scientist” have to say about ANYTHING. They have as much credibility in my eyes as CNN or BBC or The Guardian or the rest of the MSM lying Vatican/CIA propaganda outlets. Their credibility is ZERO!
Is there anything specific in the presentation YOU want to argue against? Or are you just going to regurgitate the political agenda of other Satanists and those that do your thinking for you, per usual?
Pro tip:
At least check the articles. Dr. Alfalfa often misreads her own sources, with spectacular unintended consequences.
Archival evidence available.
Which you will obviously be able to quote.
Pro-tip: try to avoid inserting pointless snark (and not just once) because you don’t like being ignored. Makes you look narc-y.

Classic Alfalfa.
Shame you can’t even spell it, but your point is inaccurate anyway.
I have quoted these studies, though:

I can, but typos — just like your errant hyphen in “pro tip.”
I leave the low-vibration stuff to you.
Your typos don’t bother me – just mentioned in passing since you are so far up your own arse.
You failed to comment intelligently on the results of the RCTs, in fact to comment on them at all. They were the point of the post.
I hear this claim over and over about Christians thinking the world is only 5,000 years old.
Two points no rational human believes this means literally 5,000 human years ie 1,825,000 days @a 24 hour solar transit of the earth around our wonderful SUN.
Second point if there is a God then a day to him could be a billion or more years to us notice our own perception of time shortens as we grow older.
There’s no scientific method that can date anything accurately. We existed in an open system, so even Carbon dating is extremely limited in its usefulness. Everything is relative to something else. There are very few anchor points to pin down anything.
Even cosmologically the theories are complete nonsense. We wouldn’t have spiral galaxies if the cosmos is millions and billions of years old. These spirals would long ago be worked off. If Earth and the Solar System are millions of years old, there would be no ice rings on Saturn and no giant hole (from which Venus was expelled) inside Jupiter. These would long ago be gone.
Our world is VERY young. Just a few thousands of years old. Anyone that tells you different, is a complete bullshitter working off and regurgitating false assumptions originating in Satanic agendas.
Most people on here would tell you different, so they’re pretty much all complete bullshitters.
Lucky you being the only person with the truth.
Hilarious.
Another thing to consider is genetic replication DNA mutation errors. If we existed for hundreds of thousand of years, as the scientific mafia would have you believe, our DNA code would have been so full of mutation errors and defects, that none of us would be here alive today. The mutation error rate of change in our DNA code simply does not allow for that kind of insane age which they ascribe to our species.
Even more hilarious!!!
‘Christians’ don’t generally believe the world is 5000 years old.
But Steve Austin and a bunch of other like-minded geologists who specifically teach at Creationist colleges believe it is.
And that’s fine – whatever floats their boat – but they should run their own conferences, and not join mainstream geological conferences purely to claim they’re taken seriously when they’re not.
And when they run field courses, they should be up front about what they’re selling.
That’s all.
I’ll ask again, Vatican Inquisitor, is there anything specific in the presentation YOU want to argue against?
“But Steve Austin and a bunch of other like-minded geologists who specifically teach at Creationist colleges believe it is.”
I doubt even that – they teach what their paymasters want.
Reminds me of the old joke about a biology teacher who turns up at a deep-south college for a job interview. He is asked if he is a Creationist or a Darwinian.
He replies, “Whatever you want, I can teach both.”
You might call some of us Restorationists.
Making the planet “without form and void” was a result of a great catastrophe. Restoring the flora and fauna and the introduction of “awdawm” [ man ] was a simple process easily completed as described by Moses.
Evolutionists and Creationist are both making too many assumptions. Gap Theory seems to work for me.
Think of it as restocking a sphereical terrarium that was spun so hard that practically everything [ on the surface ] was obliterated. We live in/on a zoo.

Trying to figure out why Hunter Biden as given $3 million cash by the Mayor of Moscows wife. Turns out she has some pretty hot daughters, one, Anna, especially so. So maybe it was a sort of dowry, like in European states in medieval times, for example, when Anne of Aquitaine married one of Edward 1 sons, creating the House of Plantagenet (leading to the 100 years war) You can bet that marriage came with a pretty sweet dowry. Hunter marrying a Russian Princess would link the House of Biden and Moscow Royalty. But it looks like Hunter grabbed the cash and made a mad dash; he was having none of it, instead knocked up a stripper in DC. Not good for international relations, if it were 700 years ago there’s be a war over this. Anna ends up in tears at the alter, Hunter ends up with plenty of schwag, enough to drive around LA in a Porsche and rent a mansion in the Hollywood Hills. And you can bet your ass that mansion comes with plenty of Tail, Russian, Chinese, Ukranian, you name it.

I just realized I was talking about Hunter. I’m not even sure what I can say about Anthony. There’s something grandiose about Hunter’s degeneracy. But Anthony sends pictures of himself with a lampshade on his head. Maybe he can be Hunter’s assistant or something.

The only person claiming to have ever seen the ‘far-right’ smear on Wikipedia is you, Herr Troll. I’ve not seen it.
I’d also state that not all Trump supporters are “far-right” as I’d define it, but it might be useful to see how you define the term.
Here’s the Wikipedia entry (which I posted a couple of weeks ago when you first tried this gaslighting effort). No mention of ‘far-right’ but an accurate description of how JHK viewed – at least until 2017 – the GOP. Has he since recanted on that quoted criticism (highlighted), which is pretty damning?
“Kunstler is a harsh critic of both the Republican Party, describing them as “a gang of hypocritical, pietistic sadists, seeking pleasure in the suffering of others while pretending to be Christians, devoid of sympathy, empathy, or any inclination to simple human kindness, constant breakers of the Golden Rule, enemies of the common good.“[5] and also the Democratic Party and their “underhanded attempts” to get rid of Donald Trump, a man whom Kunstler sees as showing “strength”.[6] He was also a promoter of the concept of a so-called “deep state” working to overthrow and thwart Trump.[7] He endorsed Trump for re-election and declared that he intended to do “everything he can to prevent the Democrats from winning the election.”[8]
In an interview with American Conservative, Kunstler attacked gay marriage, describing it as “cultural mischief” that would further damage “a struggling institution”.[9] He is a subscriber to the conspiracy theory that the 2020 United States presidential election was fraudulent, describing it as a “fraud-inflected election” on his website, and he suggests that the 2021 storming of the United States Capitol was the work of left-wing groups.”
That last sentence is new and clearly accurate. You and he share the same brand of tinfoil, is all.
We discussed this weeks ago, and JHK knows about the entry. It was deleted from the main entry, but remained on the sidebar in the search on google/duckduckgo.
You are on what your media described as a far-right website.

By the way, you should look up the word ‘impeccable’. Maybe in that dictionary of ‘American idiom’ you carry around with you everywhere.
Narc Troll
It must be my low IQ & small brain, but I STILL can’t see this hallowed reference to “far-right” on the WBM page you linked to. It doesn’t look any different from the current Wiki entry.
However, that’s beside the point.
What you really want is for me to criticize JHK in some offensive manner. I’m not buying into that game, Trolley-Boy.
Like many others, I have been reading JHK’s blog since at least 2006 and have read – purchased, not borrowed – much of his writing, both novels & non-fiction works, including the most recent “Living in the Long Emergency”, having started the journey through his thinking with “TLE”. (I think Michael Ruppert’s work may have directed me to him originally.)
I have enjoyed it all and can see precisely where he’s coming from, though I don’t agree with all his prognostications. The current political position he holds has no appeal for me, though I do agree with his assessment of the US ‘right-wing’ political party – the GOP – as posted on the Wiki page.
Not agreeing with someone doesn’t mean there should be no dialog, does it? JHK doesn’t name call or denigrate me and I certainly don’t name call or denigrate him either. Unlike you, who seems to do little else but trawl the blog comments to single out certain posters and start gaslighting them. However, you’re not very good at it, because you’re on a single rutted track. Change up your game, man!
If you REALLY want to understand my politics (not that you do, because then you’d lose what you see as an easy target), go read some work by the late, great Joe Bageant.
He’s as excellent a wordsmith as JHK (he’s, possibly, even better, but that’s entirely subjective) and he had as jaundiced a view as me with regard to the current state of the US society and politics.
He died in 2011 and much of his writing is from the early Noughties, so, politically it’s a bit too Bush/Iraq for current tastes. But his main gripe was the utter nastiness of the ‘class divide’ in America. Here’s a sample:
“They [his ‘redneck’ family & friends] are purposefully held in bondage by a local network of money families, bankers, developers, lawyers, and businesspeople in whose interests it is to have a cheap, unquestioning, and compliant labor force paying high rents and big medical bills. They invest in developing such a labor force by not investing in the education and quality of life for anyone but their own.”
(And from a review in CJR)
Working-class Americans, Bageant wrote sardonically in his second and final book, Rainbow Pie: A Redneck Memoir, were “clubbed into submission long ago, and now require only enough medication for our high levels of cholesterol, enough alcohol to keep the sludge moving through our arteries, and a 24/7 mind-numbing spectacle of titties, tabloid TV, and terrorist dramas. Throw in a couple of new flavors of XXL edible thongs, and you’ve got a nation of drowsing hippos who will never notice that our country has been looted.”
https://archives.cjr.org/review/the_cheap_seats.php
God knows, he’d likely have supported Trump’s VIEWS but never the MAN that Trump is, of that I’m certain. Through a series of email conversations with him in his last couple of years, I’m confident that’s correct.
Here’s a link to a bunch of his essays, curated by his brother, for the education of posterity. This one – “Poor, White and Pissed” is from 2005, but the facts inherent in what he says have not changed much. If anything, things have gotten worse.

Good catch…Trolley-Boy seems to think he’s highly admired by, well…everyone, of course, but especially by JHK, given the amount of nastiness he gets away with.
Maj/Redneck,
It is literally in the first line.
“James Howard Kunstler (born October 19, 1948) is a far-right[1] American author, social critic, public speaker, and blogger. He is best known for his books The Geography of Nowhere (1994), a history of American suburbia and urban development, The Long Emergency (2005), and Too Much Magic (2012). In The Long Emergency he imagines peak oil and oil depletion resulting in the end of industrialized society, forcing Americans to live in smaller-scale, localized, agrarian (or semi-agrarian) communities. In World Made by Hand he branches into a science fiction depiction of this future world.”
It would appear you are so emotional, that your reading comprehension is poorer than normal.
I wonder what your new handle will be in the near future?
BTW, is our host a Nazi? Is this a far-right blog?
Feel free to answer in your own time.
From the link you posted, first line:
’ James Howard Kunstler (born October 19, 1948) is a far-right[1] American author, social critic, public speaker, and blogger. He is best…’
I suggest you check your source.
It literally says far-right, right in the first line.
Are you mentally retarded?
Andy Ngo reports them on Twitter. I hardly see them elsewhere.This is why Andy is attacked relentlessly by Antifa goons.
Wait now, I heard Vietnamese Andy Ngo was a Nazi.
Surely there must be some mistake.
Perhaps he was going to be Trump’s Education Czar in the White Ethnostate.
Ask Maj/Redneck for details.
Vietnamese, yes.
And also gay.
Right now Andy Ngo is hiding out in London while his book is released. Antifa has murder squads out to assassinate him, much like Stalin dispatched executioners to do away with Trotsky.
“I heard…”
Yeah, you always say that when you’re making shit up, Trolley-Boy.
Perhaps we should check the Waybackmachine, Maj?
That big steamroller is comin’ again.
LOL.
Vietnamese immigrant, and gay. He should be ticking 2 legitimacy boxes off for the wokies but yet they hate him because he considers himself to be a conservative.
And he’s braver than the lot of them. They’ve put him in the hospital, and he came right back out and got back into reporting them. At this point, all he has to do is put up a video – the stories write themselves. The mugshots, too. It’s nice to know at least some of them get arrested.
mildly amusing that leftists out here need to come to a conservative site to avail themselves of their freedom of speech
naturally, this does not cause them to question their own lust to silence dissenting opinions
Of course not.
MSNBC was one of the first to close the comments section.
Was a total shitshow of progressive morons attempting to defend the ridiculous nonsense articles from that site.
https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/a-biden-appointed-reality-czar-sure-no-way-that-could-backfire/
We’re in the middle of a “reality crisis”. Surely appointing ONE “MAN” to determine what is real, will silence these conspiracy theorists. If not, then they are insane and need to be silenced.
Why not appoint a “woman” who looks like a “man” to head this Department. Black too. A threefer. That should silence everyone if they know what’s good for them.
https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/a-biden-appointed-reality-czar-sure-no-way-that-could-backfire/
Such a Czar will silence all dissent and conspiracy theorists by the very glory of his/her being. Why not appoint a minority transgender? A Threefer? No one will question “them” if they know what’s good for them. Since we already have a “woman” why not a “man”?
Sorry for the repeat, a system error that I didn’t think went through.
We’ll call it The Ministry of Truth
Bedpan Biden got more f#kkn Czars than Russia in the 17th century.
Point of order, BRH – Russian only ever had ONE Czar at a time.
yes the common ploy of assuming that minorities and transgender people (even the name is fakery) are holy and their utterances cannot be questioned by dint of their skin colour or politically preferred deviance
everything on the left is evil contrivance for power
With Biden, we have a new Onion.com-worthy article every day.
Only it is real.
Imagine the type of person who would support this. I don’t think a level of satire exists that is viscious enough to skewer such abject stupidity.
My God have you heard the video of Biden talking about vaccines on CBSN.
Odd how no search engine will allow you to find this informative piece on the mental health of this resident in the white house.
https://www.oann.com/joe-biden-blunders-through-speech-on-vaccine-rollout-repeatedly-misstates-key-facts-on-program/
I don’t EVER want to see another Democrat ever talk about any President with the nuclear football ever again.
Is it ever any wonder that all the usual suspects are acting up again when Trump left office?
This one video should cause the 25th to be brought against Joe Biden in Congress right after the sham impeachment of Trump.
Indeed.
The “speech” is still avaiable on Rumble. Seems it is being blocked form running on OANN.

More whataboutism from the village idiot.
You got your deepest wish you voted to replace Trump with a guy who does not know where he is, what office he ran for, what year it is and thinks 300 is the same is hundreds of millions.
The man can not put together a coherent sentence about any topic hell he can barely keep it together with a teleprompter.
Muttonhead joe is a disgrace even worse than the last four or five guys that held the office.

And when AOC comes out with her lies and melodrama, the eyes are off JoeBama for a few minutes. She’s making a real ass of herself this week. I haven’t laughed so hard in awhile.
They’re calling her AOC Smollett.
It seems like DAVOS or World Economic Forum is aligned with the global Wokester phenomenon but this alignment is hidden from view — as it’s not mentioned much by Wokesters and WEF alike. I truly wonder why because many of the WEF ideas are valid and even noble as they are deemed the key to the existance of all, at least according to current scientific assumptions.
One can only assume the reason is that the plan for a global reset must be enacted sereptitiously before the population knows what hit em’. so when all the national govts are on board no one will resist. Kind of like an Orwellian Big Brother to everybody on the planet.
The question is whether this is a necessary step for the survival of all or just another plan for ultimate control and tyranny on a grand scale? Somehow this is never talked about by anyone that I listen to only small facets like the GND.
Much of the funding comes from OSF. The money trail always leads to the same groups.
The money trail also never lies. It was how I initially figured out Trump was the only guy on the ticket in 2016 who could be trusted to any degree.
What does OSF stand for, please?
Open Society Foundations.
Thanks Owl, so what about my question about why the Wokester alignment is never openly associated with this Global phenomenon and do you think the Wokesters actually believe that complete government control is absolutely imperative for the good of the planet or is it just wishful thinking on their part that will lead to certain tyranny!!
I suspect most of them do not. As to why the association is not made obvious to the public, I would say it is because the wokester nonsense is classic divide and conquer.
Nothing more than a distraction to shift the focus. No one with an IQ above 80 or so believes you can choose your gender, or that racial injustice is something that can be “ended.”
The recent item on Biden’s desk about stuffing trannies into women’s sports is a great example. It is absurd and wrong. I am a big soccer fan/player and every year the US women’s national team does a friendly against a U-15 boys’ team. The women’s team loses every year by about 7-8 goals — to fifteen year old boys.
The public doesn’t realize what’s really happening because as long as they have their cable tv and computer access, and know they will get stimulus checks, they are happy to remain ignorant. This situation is not healthy for our society. The real issues we face ought to be repeatedly stressed in the common public venues, not just on specialized sites like this. Current big business and government actions aren’t going in the right direction.
In the relatively near future, however, reality will win out as problems increase in severity. Then the public will get more involved (I hope).
I often wonder if the next great calamity won’t be a repeat of August 2003 when the electrical grid failed in the northern US and Canada.
People weren’t as addicted to the electronic devices and digital this and that that pervades the current environment.
I have a copy of End of Suburbia ( which features this blog host, JHK) and I often watch it to remind myself of what could happen again.
It might not even be an innocent take down of the grid. It could be something more sinister.
If you think there was a lot of rootin’,tootin’, burnin’, and lootin’ during this past ‘summer of love’, imagine the result in today’s environment.
I might move to Cuba where blackouts are commonplace and natives don’t get too restless.
I meant to add that Matt Simmons was sure a smart guy. The kind of person one could sit with, interview, and come away so much more enlightened. He passed away too soon.
There’s so many things that could cause collapse that I imagine them on a spinning wheel. Just pick the one you think the wheel will stop on, and if you’re (unlucky) lucky, you win. As the group Blood, Sweat and Tears sang, “let the spinning wheel spin”.
You know Bill, reading the comments of news aggregation websites, youtube videos, even this site, people realize what’s happening, but what can they really do about it? There are people out there deluded by cable TV, computer access and stimulus checks, many others see things clearly.
brh – “…but what can they really do about it?”
Exactly.
We’re helpless unless we help ourselves, as in all parts of life, but the risks (social/financial/family obligations) are high for most individuals.
Granted they always have been. But we’re, well, soft.
One thing that would certainly help is for the smart and well-spoken to run for local office and then raise hell with conviction and purpose. Shut down federal bullshit when they see it.
Sadly, most see that social risk too high for themselves, and need to work to keep their loved ones on the wheel.
(Or they have more skeletons in their closets from college than they’d care to admit and would rather keep them there.)
Your last sentence sums me up perfectly. I f##kd around so much in my younger years I can never live it down, and wouldn’t somebody mucking around back there, bringing it all up.
There are signs they are starting to wake up. But I think sadly, the vaccines will kill a lot of people before that happens. They are well on their way to ‘thinning the herd’ with the establishment liberals’ blessings. Strangely in their minds, they think they will somehow be spared.
A question from a newbie here. With hundreds of posts fairly quickly after an article gets posted, and then replies coming to individual posts at any time, is there a secret to seeing just new posts or responses to a post you make w/o having to scroll through the entirety of the posts each time you come back to the site?
You can do Ctrl-F if you’re using a browser on your pc (or some similar hotkey depending on which one you use), type your handle or whatever you’re looking for into the “find” bar and then just click through to any posts that are yours or mention you by name. If you’re using a phone, ya got me…
Still takes a little effort but at least it highlights the posts you want to se and saves a load of time.
Thank you. I appreciate it.

With the extensive financialization of our economy, money is becoming more and more abstract. It’s not as abstract to the guy sloshing around in the car wash, but on the Wall Street and big bank levels its representations are becoming as untethered to reality as a Jackson Pollock or Mark Rothko painting might seem to be.
The US attitude towards the dollar has always been rather flippantly smug, as evidenced by the former US Secretary of the Treasury, John Connally, back in 1971 declaring, “The dollar is our currency, but it’s your problem.” There are trillions and trillions of them out there, and so far the American people still have faith in these piles of paper and delusional digital bits.
I’ll take a silver Athenian Owl (yes, if only), a US silver dollar, or even a US Liberty Standing half dollar any day of the week. I wouldn’t want to use them for payment, but it would be nice to hear the precious metal’s musical ring, announcing my substantial presence, as I drop them on the bar top to pay for my boilermakers. Sure you can pay with your manifestly muted, mousy paper, but where’s the fun in that?
There’s metal and then there’s mettle, as in the mettle of men, a characteristic of men/women that has recently come into question concerning the members of the Republican Party in particular, and the nature of our citizenry in general. We now have a situation in which both the nature of our money and our men are seriously suspect. Here is something wonderful from Aristophanes’ play ‘The Frogs’, equating money of high value with men of the same:
I’ll tell you what I think about the way
This city treats her soundest men today
By a coincidence more sad than funny
It’s very like the way we treat our money
Coins that rang true, clean stamped and worth their weight
Throughout the world have ceased to circulate
Instead the purses of Athenian shoppers
Are full of shoddy, silver-plated coppers
Just so, when men are needed by the nation
The best have been withdrawn from circulation
Men of good birth and breeding, men of parts
Well schooled in wrestling and in gentler arts
These we abuse, and trust instead to knaves
Newcomers, aliens, copper-plated slaves.
I am not an economist but with annual trillion dollar deficits throughout the Obama and Trump presidencies, and it becoming a multi trillion dollar deficit last year and an even larger multi trillion dollar deficit coming this year, I’d of expected us to have crossed into high inflation long before now, and yet inflation has been pretty mild. With so much being imported it would seem that the value of the dollar would have plummeted by now triggering inflation for anything imported, and yet here we are still chugging along.
Why? Is it that the rest of the world’s currencies are equally devalued so that an overall equilibrium is maintained?
The other thing for all the gold standard talk, it just isn’t going to happen because for it to be effective it would require some honest accounting of how much gold there is. Every govt. in the world will say they have vastly more than they do. There is 0% chance of any kind of honest audit. Just wouldn’t happen.
The whole world is in the same straits as we are, the elite are just barely making its interest payments, and doing that with the illicit trades.
Yeah, TS, slap that Morgan Silver Dollar on the bar, the bartender slides a shot of whiskey in your direction, pours a tall frosty overflowing mug of draft beer, and keeps ’em coming, BASED ON THAT ONE MORGAN!! Now that’s the power of real silver.
Brh
“! Now that’s the power of real silver.”
BRH,
Well…slap that Model 28 on the bar, and you will get a similar reaction…and more!
Well, E. we’ll know the real value of a thing when we figure out how many Morgans for a brick of .22 LR. That’s the only math that’ll be required to survive.
Brh
E. those S&Ws — new, used, doesn’t matter — have grown pretty expensive, if you can find one. The Kimber DASA looks decent, but good luck finding one of those right now too.
Brh, we’re speaking the same language. Heavy silver, golden brews and golden whiskey.
It is said (Gresham’s law?) that ‘bad money drives out good’. I suspect the same applies to men as well, tucsonspur.
I’m – or was – a ‘deplorable’, based on 2016 thinking, but after what I’m seeing happen now in the GOP with the likes of Graham and Cruz, I now wonder if I can still support this bunch.
Cruz is always in and out of the lube pit, mostly in. A good while ago here, I had him demoted to degreaser. Every now and then the snake slithers into a tub of Dawn and comes out wearing a jacket and tie.

I can’t claim to be an expert on silver and gold , and that sort of thing , so I’ll confine myself to arbitrary esthetic pronouncements —
I preferred it when American money was graced by images of abstract Greek goddesses .
You had to know that things were taking a bad turn when , instead , the money started featuring politicians who , as much as they might be lionized ridiculously in the present , it’s not unlikely that in 500 years these politicians will be no more lionized than Pompey the Great or Sulla.
( Except that Pompey the Great and Sulla had Tacitus , Suetonius , and William Shakespeare going for them.
In contrast ; Preserve the Union for WHAT , exactly ? For Trannies , for the sons of Montezuma and Santa Anna , and for the Chinese Communist Party ?
The Gettysburg Address ALREADY sounds ridiculous.
But then , it was bullshit at the time , too. )
Anyway , yeah , you should go back to putting Greek goddesses on your money.

Notice the above was said by a former Police Officer.
FYI , perhaps THE main reason I have never put the police on a pedestal ( At least , never trusted it after about age ten or so )
was because I have found in my reading that Police THEMSELVES , not uncommonly , state that the hype shouldn’t be trusted or bought.
“t Police THEMSELVES , not uncommonly , state that the hype shouldn’t be trusted or bought.”
Kesa,
On this we must disagree. Police enforcing the criminal laws to provide order are far different than Federal Police enforcing a political agenda…You know…like the Commies did….(Gratuitous, I know, but I cannot help myself).
In any case, I never EVER heard any locker room talk suggesting that our function was other than maintaining the peace.
Simpler times? That was then, this is now?
” For those perhaps not paying attention, Covid-19 has destroyed what remains of education, especially the public school system. It was already moribund, waiting to crash, reduced to a pension racket for teachers. Going forward, the money won’t be there to operate these giant centralized schools and their yellow buses (while paying out pensions). The virus has kick-started exactly the kind of home-schooling pod system (several families combining) that can be reorganized into small-scale schooling for people who want it. People who don’t want it can move into their future without knowing how to read or do arithmetic. We’ll finally get a good test of the noble savage hypothesis. ”
Well ….. it occurred to me one day that The Jerry Springer Show probably WAS NOT written , directed , produced and orchestrated by ditch – diggers , toilet – scrubbers , and High School dropouts.
No , The Jerry Springer Show WAS written , directed , produced and orchestrated by very affluent people , from very good neighborhoods , and with graduate degrees.
So , yeah , the Noble Savage hypothesis is bullshit.
Still , even James Howard Kunstler apparently still needs to learn to take what Vladimir Lenin or Thomas Jefferson tells him with a large grain of salt , and don’t be so quick to assume that the Middle Ages were entirely as bad as advertised.
kesa – “…and don’t be so quick to assume that the Middle Ages were entirely as bad as advertised.”
I think there is probably much truth here. We’ll find out one day, but it surely won’t be fun to get there.
I agree, I don’t think the middle ages were as bad as reported, either. The dark ages, even! I’ve been studying up a bit.
I saw an interesting program on the diet of the average peasant in the Middle Ages. It looked better than what most of us eat today.

You said it, not me.
My guess is that Leonard Cohen, because he lived in Roman Catholic Montreal, could sense the evil spirits that inhabit that place, which are so common in Europe.
I often sense these evil spirits when I travel abroad. I avoid Europe like the plague so I won’t speak about it. But I’m sad to say that when I visited the large cities in North America, without exception, Manhattan, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Washington, Boston, Philadelphia, Toronto, Montreal, they all left me with the feeling of great evil residing there. Evil that feeds on the living. It’s especially strong around large Churches and Cathedrals.
Does anyone else here get that feeling from these places?
Yes, akmofo. I got similar feelings in big cities in the States. I despise NYC, and DC drips with creepiness. I can’t recall one major US city I really enjoyed, but those two always stood out for me as a former East Coaster.
NYC really takes it though. The level of agression and idiocy one sees on the street is truly something to behold.
European cities have some of this, too, but I actually find them generally much nicer places. Though there is some real evil lurking in some places, certainly. Brussels is probably the pedo capital of the world.

But then it is a scam anyway, and no one died. Guess it is ok then.

Exactly, Kesa. It is the ultimate means of control. You step out of line either in “real life” or on social media, etc., and you are punished. In the past, we could pack up and leave to escape political persecution or instability, if things got bad enough.
This will not be possible in the future, outside of perhaps a few states where the leadership has put up resistance. I feel thankful that I don’t live in China, or even the UK or Australia, but I know that they are merely a few steps ahead. The psychopaths behind this intend to bring it to everyone.
But it only exists in our heads, according to some of the smartasses who like to weigh in here, even though the powers that be are implementing it daily right out in the open.
Worst “I told you so” ever…
I really feel sorry for anyone duped into taking that vaccine.

Just like we predicted months ago.
But… we’re ‘conspiracy theorists’.
It ceases to be theory when it is happening. Multiple airlines now calling for forced vaccination, with United demanding others follow as they all have to do it together for it to be successful.
The idea that private companies would require this sort of thing was also “conspiracy” according to our trusted McMedia outlets, who have brought us some of the biggest conspiracy whoppers in the history of the subject.

Not until 2025 or so. Not much will be left. Little left to resist the Great Reset. Anglin says the ideal will be “Hudson Yards” in Manhattan: a couple of blocks, but ultra high tech high rises with thousands of people per mega-plex. You will live in a pod, have a tranny girlfriend (more points than a biological girl), etc. You will beg for this, anything to avoid living in Judge Dredd type Mega-plex with “low earners” for neighbors.
Good Netflix and movie recommendations to round out your understanding: Black Mirror, Children of Men, Zardoz, Logan’s Run, Judge Dredd.

Yo,
Informed, yes. Interred, possibly.
Klaus Schwab said the same thing.
CEO of United gave a presser the other day saying United is going to require vaccination and that they can also require it of their employees based on some shitty law that no one has ever heard of.
In the bad Megaplexes, you will live on bug slurry delivered by drones to you window. Even when you aren’t locked down, you can’t go very far because the elevator’s always broke. You live on the 75th floor and you can’t make it down to the rec center. You don’t have the energy. And you’ll get jumped by the gangs of other floors. Plus you don’t like anyone down there much anyway.
And watch. They’ll probably just go ahead and make the bug slurry delivery drones look like literal sundry flying insects themselves. They will say such designs align with sustainability, rewilding, and racial equity goals. Hopefully the drones will not be given the power to sting!
Only if you don’t clear your plate. It waits around while you slurp down the nutrients.

They say David Koresh was molesting children , and that his cult was stockpiling AK – 47’s and such.
Well , what you see here is the ” good guys” bashing an armored personal carrier into a building occupied by children.
If you were ten years old , and somebody came along and started bashing an armored personnel carrier into a building you were occupying ,
do you reckon that you would reckon those people in the fucking bull dozer tank had your interests in mind ?
Maybe the Branch Davidian’s were a wacky cult ?
But anyone who can look at an image of a tank being bashed into a building occupied by children , and then say with a strait face ; ” It’s for the children ! ”
I would call a , ” Branch Covidian. “

I spent time working as an editor for a cop union in the early phases of my career. If I let you in on some of the stories the leadership sometimes told while on break, you would probably want to do as you described.

I guess I must feel talkative today. Here is a little story that some of you in the North East part of the USA might not be aware of….
A development about another pipeline. Not Keystone XL. This one is closer to home……
Enbridge Line #5, that the Gov. of Michigan also wants shut down. The State has served notice on Enbridge Pipelines, headquartered in my city of Calgary to shut it down by May 1st, 2021. Apparently 95% of the citizens of Michigan are in favour of the shutdown.
Well, maybe we shouldn’t wait till May 1st? Why not do it now before winter is over and farmers need heat to grow crops and raise livestock. The ‘hate-on” for the oil and gas industry grows very tiresome from the cheap seats. Here is an excerpt from an article from our National Post in Canada. Interview with the Mayor of Sarnia…..
“In the ‘ 90s, we went through 6,000 or 7,000 jobs. It was devastating,” Bradley said, noting that at the time an ethylene pipeline from Alberta to Ontario shut down and Dow Chemical permanently closed one of its petrochemical plants in Sarnia.
The Plains facility in Sarnia takes condensed natural gas from the line and strips out the propane and butane before sending those two commodities back to Michigan and Wisconsin. Koch’s letter warns that shutting down the two facilities would cause a massive price spike in both Michigan and Wisconsin for heating fuel.
“In the medium term, propane shortage induced price impacts would be expected to be much more severe and lasting than those experienced during the polar vortex induced shortages in the winter of 2013/14 that prompted Michigan and several other surrounding states to declare a state of emergency,” Koch wrote.
In addition to providing more than half of the heating fuels to Michigan, Line 5 also supplies all of the fuel to Toronto Pearson International Airport and much of the fuel to Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, said Scott Archer, a business agent with UA Local 663, a labour union, in Sarnia.
Shutting down Line 5 “would entirely cripple the economy of this region,” Archer said, adding that companies with refineries in the area have warned of layoffs.
“They’re telling us 5,000 to 6,000 direct employees in Sarnia,” Archer said, noting that would be a huge hit to the employment rate in a city of 72,000 people. “It would be a massive blow because everyone here has someone that works in the refinery in their family. It would just take the legs right out from under the
town.”
Like JHK says….we live in an age of ‘everything goes and nothing matters”. Somehow I think that won’t end well…..
Once these pipelines are abandoned they will never be rebuilt.
What will replace the oil and natgas these pipelines are bringing in from Canada?
What will replace the oil and natgas these pipelines are bringing in from Canada?
Well for one thing trains. At 540,000 barrels a day for the Enbridge 5 pipeline that would be 250,000 tanker cars a year at the max loaded capacity of 34,000 gallons per car. An accident waiting to happen. Or maybe 1,000,000 tanker trucks a year going over the road. The oil will flow that is a fact. You’ll just have to pay a shitload more for it. The new JFK, savior of the world, Climate Czar, John Forbes Kerry, from 40,000 ft movin’ 8 miles a minute remarks

Yeah, the Climate Czar took a private aircraft to Iceland just a few days ago to pick up yet another Climate Change award, and was miffed when reporters called him on itm saying “Nobody has done more for the Climate than me.”
Climate Change Award? These f#kkrs give each other more awards than the buttpounders in Hollywood. Another lefty Circle Jerk.
“We’re all Southerners now”
Their tell of history is so dishonest and one sided. I suppose it shouldn’t be any surprise since history is written by the victors. But no matter what they say we will always remember what they did. Which had very little to do with worrying about insurrectionists and terrorists from what I can tell, and a whole lot more to do with the merciless and oftentimes violent expropriation or destruction of property and land by and for the “Union”. Land like Avery Island. I’m sure Nathaniel Banks was just convinced insurrectionists were dwelling in the sugar cane fields and salt mines. When they make accusations like that they are usually just distracting and diverting, moralizing, and justifying the mass fraud, mass theft, and mass violence they are in the midst of unleashing. It’s also the psychological dynamic of an inherently abusive relationship. They do this stuff all over the world.
As time passes it really seems like the Democrats and the Republicans and their alleged struggles for power and preeminence are nothing more than a psyop. The Republicans appear to be a foil used to placate and pacify that portion of the population that they believe could potentially do something to stop the completion of the international corporate takeover. If the parties, and the government at large, truly answered to and represented the people there wouldn’t be the need for the military occupation look. More like because they no longer care if you know they don’t represent you or even what we assumed was a shared country. They are accountable to no one and laws are for you not them.
Reducing a Nation, Sarah Hoyt
Those of us who’ve read a lot of history, particularly those who grew up abroad and know there is a technique to reducing a conquered country.
In Portugal, we learned about what the Spaniards did, during the sixty years they occupied Portugal back in the sixteen hundreds.
To be fair, I know what the Spaniards were trying to do now. Not that it feels me with warm fuzzies, because there are echoes. But from their point of view, like from the point of view of the globalists, it made perfect sense, was smart and should not be opposed by the illiterate — shall we call them deplorables — of Portugal. Mostly the North of Portugal.
You see, after kicking out the Moors, Castille looked around and thought that what it really needed was a unified land mass: to wit all of the Peninsula. And Portugal was, to be fair, at the time, a rich morsel, full of colonies overseas.
So, through a series of rather bizarre alliances, plus buying the nobility of Portugal and fostering a sense that being Spaniards would be better for them, they eventually took over the land.
Fine and dandy. Well not. Because Portuguese, particularly the North, are a population affected with oppositional defiant disorder. I suspect it it endemic in the culture because of all the invasions or, as my kids put it, Portugal being the reservoir tip int he condom of Europe. (Hey, they’re my kids. They’re occasionally rude.) I mean, you’re invaded a lot, you either become complacent and let the shit roll over you, or you become hells own bastards. And by the way, I sternly resist any impliction this might be genetic, particularly because shut up.
So resistance started on day one and the “reduction” program didn’t work very well. And sixty years later they got rid of the Spaniards by defenestrating the governor. (It is a thing of joy and beauty to hear an entire class of ten years old girls answer the question of “What happened to the Spanish governor in Lisbon?” with an enthusiastic shout of “He was defenestrated.”)
The Portuguese don’t hold a grudge either — truly — which is why 400 years later we were still instructed by our elderly and very proper fourth grade teacher to desecrate the pictures of the Spanish kings in our school books, with swear words and devil horns, and “make them really ugly.”
The funny thing — stop me when this sounds familiar — that Spain would probably have won the battle, long term, almost certainly, if they’d come in and governed with Portuguese best interests at heart, and let the cultures and families merge.
Portugal didn’t even have a very strong sense of national identity at the time, and noble families had property in both families.
But they came in set on “reducing” the Portuguese. It involves a program of destroying the statues of the conquered people, and the stories of their heroes. It involves giving away prized possessions that brought in wealth (in Portugal’s case various colonies given away in the dowry of Spanish princesses) for the glory of the invaders. It involves forbidding the mother-tongue and replacing it with the invaders’s speech (A-men and A-women!) and it involves in general making the invaded country feel its humiliation, in the hopes of making it want to die.
It will surprise you to know this is not the technique of any successful empire ever. It was stolen by the Spaniards from the Moors, and is partly why the Moors will eventually herd camels in a desert where the oil is the most fit thing to drink.
The left, which learned all their conquering techniques from Russians and Nazis is using the same thing. They are trying to destroy our history, sully our heroes, make us speak a lingo that even they can’t do, and impoverish us to the point — they think — that we can’t raise our heads.
Oh, and all this in the service of ”more land.” In this case they want to take over the entire world, because for the left (and possibly crazy Spaniards) the government is best which is most distant and governs with complete disregard for local culture and conditions, by pretending every human is a widget who will follow written rules to the letter.
The fact that the Spaniards keep — still — having trouble conquering themselves, and that the USSR and the Nazis crashed in every way possible, and the USSR would have done it faster, had we not supported them for most of their existence means nothing to the left.
Both sides have weaponized autists, see. Ours are just more amusing and creative. On the left though, because it’s a cargo cult, they’ll follow the procedures, d*mn it, and they will have their wished-for result because shut up h8ter.
None of this will work the way they expect. They can’t even interpret what they’re seeing.
My prediction is a crash of internationalism, a revival of a love of nationality and each nation’s character and heroes, and a glorious upraised middle finger to those who’d be global masters, Winnie the Xi and the UN included, and possibly with petards.
The funny thing is that they could have taken us, in another generation or two. If they’d only pretended to have our best interests at heart, swallowed their phobic reaction to the flag and trappings of patriotism, allowed the working class to keep working, and took it slow.
Their schools, and particularly colleges, were indoctrinating our young in their death credo. In another generation or two there would be nothing to fight from.
But they hate us that much they had to treat us like conquered land they wanted to reduce. And because they’re using those sectors they already control, like education and the arts, and even finance, they’re also being stupid and causing all of those to crash really hard, thereby destroying their influence.
Stay strong, friends. It’s going to be a few thoroughly unpleasant years, as the dying wild boar the left has become does maximum damage to everything, in the belief this strengthens their position.
But we’re not a conquered country. They captured the hierarchy of power. And that, you know, can always be got rid of — defenestrated! (Though not necessarily literally. Hey, I heard that “Aw!”) — but in the end we win they lose.
Be not afraid.
Yoho: Maybe BRH will tell us more about what happened to this Spanish King. Sounds bad…..
I think the color revolutionists are going to be dealing with a lot of northern Port. types in the coming years.
I’ll have to look into it, Janos. I knew Spain occupied Portugal for a bit, didn’t know the details. A few years back when Portuge guys showed up here to put in our new driveway, it was funny listening to my wife and her cousin talking with them. It was almost, but not quite, the same language.
Any animosity Portugese and Spaniards might have held in the old country has dissolved. For them, its Iberians against the World.

Excellent post. I did not know that piece of Portugal-Spain history, and it is a great example.
The fury over losing the 2016 election built to the point that they can’t think rationally as concerns their long term plans, and are going scorched earth instead.
I had the misfortune to be subjected to a few hours of MSNBC and you can see it at work. Every commentator repeats what the one before them says, again and again. It is a classic “say it often enough and loud enough and people will believe you”. Some try to muster some degree of sincerity while saying it, others can’t come out of their elitist towers as they preach to the unwashed masses, but they all say the exact same thing. The only stories they cover currently are the “insurrection” and the pandemic, as if there isn’t anything else happening anywhere that is newsworthy.
Just as the Germans and Russians dehumanized their enemies to the point that the masses believed them, this is what the left is doing now. The words Republican, white supremacist, racist, and insurrectionist can now be used interchangeably in any sentence where it is appropriate to use any one of them. They are all one and the same. Nothing is stated as opinion in this regard. It is all done as statement of fact.
The truly scary part is that the Dems are exceptionally well organized behind the scenes whereas there isn’t any cohesive leadership or organization in the Republican party. Trump didn’t have a team in place when he took office nor did he ever manage to put one in place. He was a lone wolf type who didn’t know how to play well with others, hence the endless revolving door amongst his cabinet and White House staff. Yes he bulled his way through to get an incredible amount done in the midst of fierce opposition, but he wasn’t the kind of leader that could put together a lasting organization/movement. The only thing he left the country of any duration are judicial appointments. Everything else is already being stripped away or cancelled.
This is not going to end well.
The CP is always well organized and tightly disciplined. Oddly enough, once the CP gains power, the first people they turn on – and crush — are their fellow travellers, the Anarchists.
Trump’s lack of real accomplishment is sincerely disappointing but not surprising, right? His inability to fight back effectively. In the end, his skills and character were, shockingly, more suited to reality tv… who could have known. Pretty telling… how this guy was the last best hope against even more degenerate political forces.
His list of actual accomplishments dwarf most other Presidents even with half the country doing everything they could to block and oppose him.
This includes the media that lied non-stop about him.
I could post a list of stuff he managed to do but I doubt you would read it nor care.
Yes he is a reality teevee star and a troll but he actually did manage to move the ball forward what you might want to reconsider is what you deem important versus what you deem to be a reversal of destructive Progressive (communist) goals.
Benr: he faced unprecedented, and unprecedentedly illegal and unprincipled, opposition forces. But to me it’s fair to say his vision was out of date, and unclearly communicated if not conceived. And i wanted more lasting immigration constrictions, but more than that…more frank and reality-based discussion on those issues publicly from “the outsider president.” My aftertaste from the four years is …wreckage from an encounter with shallow self-absorbtion.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Early life
Brennan was born in North Bergen, New Jersey,[8] the son of Owen and Dorothy (Dunn) Brennan. His Irish father, a blacksmith, emigrated from County Roscommon, Republic of Ireland to New Jersey in 1948.[19][20] He attended the Immaculate Heart of Mary Elementary School and graduated from Saint Joseph of the Palisades High School in West New York, New Jersey.

Yes Trump is now Al Qaeda!
One form of violence is ignored or even fomented and the peaceful people are called extremists and terrorists.
The left continues to show just how insane they really are.
Lets face it the DEMOCRAT PARTY won’t rest until all the people who don’t support them will be wearing big yellow D’s for easy identification and round up.
Read Snagglepuss’s post about the Enbridge Line 5 natgas and oil pipeline above. The pipeline brings in 550,000 bpd from Calgary to Michigan, also natgas N Michigan uses to heat homes in winter. The Michigan Gov has ordered the pipeline closed.
Peter Schiff stated yesterday expect oil to approach $100 per barrel by late summer due to the Biden administration’s interference in energy infrastructure and markets.
That ought to go over big with the rubes in N Michigan, Wisconsin and Maine freezing to death in their houses next winter waiting for windmills and solar panels to come on line.
Thanks, Sleepy Joe.

Not to mention that even if the renewable electric power was available, how many folks can afford to pay the piper converting their HVAC systems to electricity. Same problem with cars.
So if we use the Covid as an example. If the government forces the people to do something, like locking down, they are responsible for stimulus payments to keep everyone going.
Does that mean that if they are turning off the flow of oil by government control, they will be willing to build all the generation plants, buy everyone a Tesla, and redo all the ventilation systems.

the response? ”don~t cherry pick”
Whites founded and built America for themselves, for Whites. Leftists know this. “Conservatives” do not because they deny it, and lie to themselves. Thus the Left has far more essential clarity than does the Right. A side that does not know itself is bound for defeat from the very beginning.
They won the first battle of making us feel ashamed. All the rest has just been a long drawn out mopping up campaign. We can’t win until this inner battle is resolved.
Liz Cheney got away with it. The media, Fox, says the Republican Party is healing. That will be the worst of all scenarios, letting the traitors in the Lincoln Project back into power. The GOP leadership, led by Jeff Flake, Collins, Murkowsky, Mc Connell, Cindy McCain enriching the Deep State base and running Mittens for president.
Get it, Mittens versus Biden (Harris) in 2024. I cannot imagine anything worse for the country than that scenario.
We need the Patriot party to stop the healing of the GOP. 73 million Patriots are about to get the shaft by the Deep State.
The number is higher than 73 million. At least 80 million. If everyone that voted GOP contributes $10 to knockout the RINOs from political power and replace them with new Patriot Party candidates so as to de-fund and end the CIA and FBI, things can be turned around and rather quickly. These are the main gov mafia agencies that protect and cover for the Vatican/CIA criminals.

If you have an alternative to police, please enlighten us.
Civilizations give the power of policing to groups to enforce the laws of the land and maintain order. I laugh at these cities that want to defund cops and then wonder why all of a sudden the cartels and their gangs show up.
Unfortunately, power people get into police positions and do bad things at times.
At times, give me a break. What do we hear about 3 – 4 white on black incidents a year? A year? How many black on white incidents, or black on black or white on white incidents do we hear about on our vaunted media.
You have been suckered like so many others by that media. The cops in this country have been given a mission impossible.
Want to know what a defunded city would look like? Look at Brh’s Chicago statistics. The cops stay away from the Chicago south side and chaos, gang related chaos reigns there.
Seattle tried to set up a city state and it failed miserably. Why? No police and the gangs came in. Portland is an insane asylum because the cops have withdrawn.
Liberals are crazy. Kumbaya in the cities, ha! NYC was in good shape until the anti-cop folks showed up. They are now catching up to Chicago quickly. Listen to BRH talking about Hartford area.
We don’t need the police. What we need is elected Judges (with a one year term limit) and an armed citizenry. Things will VERY quickly settle down once the criminals understand that what awaits them is immediate on-the-spot retribution.
Then you’ll get Hatfields vs McCoys or in Israel, the Likudniks vs the Stern gang. Or was it some other earlier faction against the Stern gang?
Nope. What you’ll get is a period of freedom as described in the books of Judges. Decentralized government. Of-course, you’ll need the Laws of God given on mount Sinai. Everything else beyond that, is a return to organized gov mafia criminality and Roman fascism/imperialism.
Thje bad guys kill the judges or take family members and follow the militia home and do the same to them.
Nope won’t work you want a return to the wild west.
Ben,
This is where extended families, familial tribes, street and neighborhood and city tribes come in. Bad guys cannot work independently of these social structures. If they do, they’ll get wiped out.
Right now a strong imbalance exists, because international socialism has destroyed all these social structures mentioned above, including the family, the most intimate of these. But this is a very unnatural situation, and as soon as central control is abolished, so will international socialism and its social effects.

You might as well promote … Sicily.
Very family-oriented an’ all.
That was meant to go under your comment just below MaryV’s, sorry.
No thanks to roving militias.
Your family, your familial relations, your street, your neighborhood, your town, is your tribe. That’s how it was before, that’s how it will be again, once the distorting effect of the international gov mafia and its giant corporations are eliminated.
You’ve been living for so long inside the international gov mafia artificial social bubble, that you forgot how things were and done before.

Both places are exactly as you seem to want.

The immortal aborted cell line was made so by turning it cancerous. Talk about a culture of death!
Attn you know who you are (if only!)
You’ll be pleased to know that my husband (recently vaccinated) not only has a serious food allergy, but also an auto-immune disease.
I’ll keep you posted, as promised.
In the meantime, my daughter in Singapore (but not for much longer) has been antibody-dependently enhanced. By dengue, not from a vaccine. Nasty, apparently – when she got the enhanced symptoms, she was nostalgic for the old symptoms.
So, for all you or I know, a Covid variant might, in the future, also cause ADE, vaccine or no vaccine.
https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opinion/covid-19-vaccine-researchers-mindful-of-immune-enhancement-67576
Has it gotten worse for him since being vaccinated?
I’m horrified by them injecting these cancerous cells into people, irrespective of the new experiments.
Sorry to disappoint you – not even the mildest reaction or symptom.
Even the flu vax managed a sore arm for a night.
I get the impression you’d be pleased if something bad happened. Is that really how people are?
Re the cancerous cells, I don’t know much about this cell line business other than what I read when looking into it earlier on your behalf, but the idea that the use of such cells in developing or testing vaccines would give people cancer seems fanciful to me. As if the notion would never occur to a scientist or medic and you were the first to think of it.
Why don’t you look into it and find out how it works? Lots of medications over the decades have used these cell lines.
I don’t have time because I’m reading MaryV’s cited book, given that I’m rather more open-minded than Mary and less prone to flinging hysterical, potty-mouthed insults at people. Not impressed by the Foreword writer being a homeopath, of course, but I won’t judge the authors by their Foreword writer’s belief in that particular nonsense.
I don’t want anyone shot up with sv40 or anything like it ever!
That was injected into humans in the last fifty or sixty years.
It is a cancer causing virus that dates back to using Rhesus monkey kidneys to grow polio among other things.
Maurice Hilleman
Exposure of over 100 million Americans to SV40, and many more worldwide, could have been avoided, as well as the debate about the role of this monkey virus in human cancer. SV40 was discovered by Maurice Hilleman in 1960 as a contaminant of poliovirus vaccine.
Was this intentional back then I doubt it how ever these kinds of things happen so often it makes one start to really wonder and then you see the Georgia guide stones and people like Gates talking about population overshoot.

I’m assuming the vaccine developers know a lot more now than they did in the 50s, when I also had a polio vaccination (well five of them if I remember correctly – 3 injections and two sugar cubes!).
But I’m very glad I didn’t get polio. I wouldn’t have been as tirelessly courageous as this guy:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Cavendish
Hadn’t heard of him until I caught just the credits at the end of a serialisation of his life (by his son) which has been on the teevee, but I missed it.
Did he get his second shot yet? That’s the bad one, the money shot. The Second Revolution.
You didn’t even read the article. Sad!
I assume he had to get “vaccinated” if he wanted to keep on working, perhaps? Many medical people over here have dug their heels in against it, knowing that it’s illicit human experimentation. Don’t know how it’s going to play out.
“Did he get his second shot yet? That’s the bad one, the money shot. The Second Revolution.”
Of course. Then if that doesn’t do it, it’ll get you in 10 years. Or 20.
I did read the article. Just very quickly.
“I assume he had to get “vaccinated” if he wanted to keep on working, perhaps?”
Why would you think that? It’s not compulsory for medical staff. He’s coming up 67 and well past caring what managers think.
Really, you should have a word with yourself. You would be happy to hear about bad things happening to vaccinated people. I find that sick. A person with a healthy mind would be able to (a) hope that vaccinated people didn’t come to any harm and (b) still maintain their right not to get vaccinated.
The shots are being spaced by up to 12 weeks here, to enable more people to get some protection earlier.
So you’ll have to continue sticking pins in voodoo dolls of vaccinated people for a bit longer.
What a terrible thing to say, Alba. I have nothing for or against your husband. I don’t know him. He just a pawn in our philosophical battle. I tried to help you keep your pawn and no you are using that against me – using him a pawn in turn.

You have wished a lot worse on your fellow humans.
“I have nothing for or against your husband.”
I’m sure you haven’t. But you want ‘statistics’ to show that the vaccine will do more harm than the disease. And those statistics are your fellow humans.
@GreenAlba you would be happy to see bad things happen to those that question the existence of COVID19 and refuse to adhere to the idiotic self-smothering and distancing.

MaryV
We also differ in that I didn’t indulge in hysterical, potty-mouthed name-calling.
Is that the way you behave in real life too?
Narc: erratum – *can find nothing*
But I don’t mind being confused with a Cockney, otherwise.
You have been wrong on every COVID related item to date, to the point that you now pretend to have never advocated masks, claimed HCQ was dangerous, or that the numbers were bunk due to fraudulent testing practices.
You are no better than your two best friends, Majella and Carghoul. Both of whom were banned multiple times.
As you were.
Masks: My position on masks is the same as it’s always been – that they help a bit (probably by lowering both the amount of virus passed on by each infected person and the number of people infected by each infected person – on average). I still wear a mask when I go into a shop or on to a bus. Since I don’t go anywhere else indoors much, that’s it – and exactly as it has been since April. I only managed two visits to eateries during that time and didn’t wear a mask, because that would be dumb.
HCQ: HCQ has risks, and continues to have risks, although they are not over-serious to most people, and would be worth taking if the medication actually did something. There is anecdotal evidence that it helps, from here and there, but it has singularly failed to prove itself of any use in randomised controlled trials, which, as you know, are the gold standard.
That has been my position from the start and still is. People on here who are not as dishonest as you know that. If it worked, I’d take it myself. But there is, as yet, no solid evidence that it does anything at all, either in treating seriously ill patients or as a prophylactic.
You have yet to give me your comments on the results of the RCTs.
Cases: I said months ago that the numbers of ‘positive cases’ were meaningless, in the early days because the number of tests was minuscule in comparison to the number of people in the community who probably had the disease (with few or no symptoms), and later because the number of false positives and the massive number of false negatives (which in your appalling dishonesty, you have never acknowledged) made them meaningless.
I have said countless times that what matters is the number of hospitalisations. That is still my view. And it is still my view that the best tests that exist are nevertheless vital for healthcare staff, given the super-spreader nature of hospitals.
You are so totally unable to cope with being wrong about anything that you have to describe your record as ‘impeccable’, in the same sentence as acknowledging mistakes (and only because everyone has read your mistakes for a year). You can’t be a little bit impeccable, any more than you can be a little bit pregnant.
Now accuse me of giving you a wall of text in reply to your spurious accusations, you dishonest, disingenuous dipstick.
“You are no better than your two best friends, Majella and Carghoul. Both of whom were banned multiple times.”
Is that a criticism of our host for not banning me?
Because it sure looks like it. Either that or a devious, weaselly attempt at inferring guilt by association. Or both.
Why don’t you email him and ask him to ban me? You can discuss the ‘so-called great reset’ and the ‘reset fantasy’ while you’re at it.
Dishonest doesn’t begin to cover your MO.
‘Straight as an arrow’? You’re about as straight as one of Boris’ bendy bananas.
You are a liar. And yes, you have written a word salad.
You have said nothing. Because you can’t.
Indicate any sentence you don’t understand and I’ll elucidate it for you.
And prove any lie.
All in the archive.
I’m sorry you’re finding your rage so hard to control.
Perhaps your wife could help with both the Narc-Rage and the Narc-Snark. Although I expect she’d just tell you to get an effin’ grip.
Did that happen right after the vaccination, GA?
No, CitizenG, he developed a prawn allergy out of nowhere a couple of decades ago, which is not unusual. He’s also had psoriasis since long before I met him (similarly a couple of decades ago).
I only mentioned it because a couple of people (in the UK) with serious allergies had an anaphylactic reaction to the Pfizer vaccine at the start of the programme, so they’ve advised people with allergies not to take it until the regulators find out what it was specifically that caused their reactions. Also, Yoha’s link warns of dangers to people with auto-immune diseases (as yet entirely hypothetical).
My husband is a doctor (which you have to say on here in the same hushed tones you might use if married to a serial killer), so he was aware of both issues before he got the vax.
I guess I’m a bit distrustful of the medical industry.
All in all with all the poking, prodding, cutting, and most other unnecessary diagnostics there could be a whole lot more harm than Hypocrates would have liked…nothing personal towards your husband though, as in the end, many physicians are still a blessing to some.
I mean Hippocrates
“I guess I’m a bit distrustful of the medical industry.”
So is he. But he does his best by people, always.
And so it begins.
Travel restrictions by car between states are soon to be implemented (at least in our state) in order to keep your kids in school without a quarantine period and covid tests upon return (just some schools for now that I’m aware).
This would include people driving 1 mile across adjacent (and very nearby) state lines to visit family.
The kick in the nuts is that students can come over the border to our state to attend schools, and the rule won’t apply to them. I’d like to meet the health department wizard who doesn’t see that as deliberate game-playing there…
Granted, this is just for (some) schools as of now.
Speculation:
It would appears it’s only a matter of time before we’ll have to have a specific app on our phones that will automatically report whereabouts/travel to the state, who will then report to the schools to make sure quarantine is enforced. Car GPS would naturally be automatically reported to said state “officials” as well.
People with some clout have got to start saying something, at their own social risk. This is ludicrous, and it will lead very quickly to…well, most of you have a pretty good idea:
Next up, requirement of tracking apps that will tell you if you’ve been in contact, even in your own state, with someone who traveled from another state, and quarantine will then be enforced as well. These already exist, as we know, and tell you if you were within 6 feet of someone who had previously tested positive for covid. Just an extension of that concept, but this will soon be required.
Then of course, forced vaccination if you want to do anything other than sit inside your home, with no visitors (that one is a little ways off, but the momentum is rolling now, so why would those calling the shots stop now?).
Anyone out there up for running for city or state office yet?
Oh give me a break.
FArom the I can’t believe this nonsense is taken seriously and even more to the point it is probably a BoweL Movement matters supporter doing it for publicity.

Yes, there is a tiny bit of irony in that…
The Thirty Tyrants
The deal that the American elite chose to make with China has a precedent in the history of Athens and Sparta
BY LEE SMITH
FEBRUARY 03, 2021

Excellent read !!
Has there ever been a executive led government successfully run by two people? With two folks in charge, the next item on the agenda is for one to get rid of the other.
Power is evil, and must be controlled. That is the purpose of the Constitution, the same Constitution that the Left and RINOs are trying to destroy bit by bit.
Every experiment with totalitarianism has failed to serve its public. Elitism is power en masse. Then the elite complete to see who is number one. A big problem is what happens when you get to number one, what is next?
Wow, what a read.
It’s not for nothing then we call President Cabbage Head ‘Beijing Biden’.
Recent articles predict failed west coast cities Seattle, Portland, SF and LA will soon devolve into abandoned and squalid wastelands, dirty and dysfunctional no man’s lands. Is it a stretch to imagine the upshot of the American elite selling out to China is the PLA occupying the US west coast, invited in by feckless lefty pols to protect them from ‘White Supremacists’ in the heartland and the south?
Brh
OH my poor mind. Excellent article, I wish Trump could have spoken those words, but alas fun times ahead.
I’ve got to compliment you mofo on that article, it’s just what I was looking for to give some explanation to this worldwide wokester phenomenon. Plus it’s coming from a Jewish newsletter that is deemed slightly left but highly reliable content-wise.
I’m about a third way through (long but it has to be for thouroughness) and looking forward to reading the rest. It makes sense that this whole shitshow has been orchestrated by elites from both sides!
Some serious balls on these companies lets hope the long awaited proof of alleged voting fraud and manipulation gets it’s airing in a real court of law.

If found provable I hope these companies get sued into the dust if not then I guess let justice prevail though the heavens may fall.
The Groot is pissed. She hammered the Teachers Union today. I thought the Dems were pro- union. Even bumbles Biden seems to be anti-union with his GND bullshit.
it’s gonna be a long 4 years, Clusterfuckers. Buck up!
Let your joy keep you hopeful. Romans 12:12
Alas, not much joy on this blog…sad.
You were pretty joyless last week. BRH and I tried to remind you that life is fun and interesting, but you never replied.
Oh, well.
Check on that Night owl.
I did reply.
You did indeed say life is fun, and I agreed, ‘fun, and also interesting.’
Please excuse that last post Owl. I misread you.
Clearing out snow, on my 3rd Red Stripe.
Interesting combo. I like your style.
Draupnir,
Silver and gold purchase premiums…not to mention the “premium” received by the dealer upon conversion.
I was a pawnbroker. The selling premium when you want/need to sell you metals may be…punishing. Consider for a moment what you are actually trying to do…hedge inflation.
The problem soon arises that when you go to spend your inflation-hedged dollars, or trade, or whatever, you will find that what you want to buy has also increased by an almost equal amount. You not only do not benefit, but actually lose 20%+ on both premiums paid.
Traditionally, Gold has been a good “bug out” currency. In the 21st. Century, that might be moot…no place to bug out to.
That is why the old pawnbroker is heavy in desirable goods, and bereft of any precious metal hoard…the only difference in goods and metals is relative liquidity.
…But I could be wrong….

Her office isn’t near the Capitol dome area. But she’s not lying. It’s all real in her mind. She has a leading role in the ongoing movie, America. Her own life isn’t enough. She wants to be the lead role in your movie too.
People call me a sourpuss. Guess I am.
But I also know my asshole from a hole in the ground.
Let me have it, CFN…let me have it.
I’m on bended knee, waiting to be spanked.
I miss Kim.
” Kesa,
On this we must disagree. Police enforcing the criminal laws to provide order are far different than Federal Police enforcing a political agenda…You know…like the Commies did….(Gratuitous, I know, but I cannot help myself). ”
This is the second time in a row that I have bothered to post here , that someone said , in so many words , ” We disagree ”
And then proceeded to use as their counter – argument …..
…. my own arguments.
Grrrr.
To be fair , there is no particular reason that anyone should particularly note , catalog , remember , or devote any particular time and effort to pondering and digesting what I have wrote.
I’m not the center of your world ; You are the center of your world. .
And I’m not particularly important.
And so it goes.
Anyway —
” Police enforcing the criminal laws to provide order are far different than Federal Police enforcing a political agenda…You know…like the Commies did. ”
In the two years ( ? ) I have been here , I have consistently NOT maintained that outfits like the FBI , Secret Service , and ATF , for example , were corrupted somewhere along the line ,
our came under the bad influence of some administration , like they were a bunch of 12 – year – olds led astray by some pedo gang.
No , I HAVE consistently maintained that outfits like the FBI were ESTABLISHED AT THE VERY BEGINNING as political police , as political weapons , JUST LIKE the Stasi , KGB , or Gestapo.
They didn’t become corrupt.
They were designed a particular way .
They didn’t take a wrong turn somewhere .
The very first step they took was in a deliberate , pre – meditated direction.
You need not even take my word for any of it.
No less than four different Presidents , from two different parties , stated unambiguously that J. Edgar Hoover was a questionable and dangerous character , and that they wanted to get rid of him.
Never the less , J . Edgar Hoover presided over the FBI for 40 years , and died in office.
This seeming contradiction is no mystery. The Encyclopedia Britannica will tell you that the FBI not only amassed dossiers on Bonnie and Clyde and Al Capone , but amassed dossiers on Senators and congressmen. And used blackmail against their presumed employers,
In 1922 the FBI was a small office in the Treasury Department that consisted of maybe five people , and their sole brief was interstate car theft.
Forty years later , the FBI employs thousands of people , and has embedded agents in such dangerous groups as the United Daughters of the Confederacy , the ASPCA , and the YMCA.
Granted , it CANNOT be proved , but the strong evidence is that Deep Throat was an FBI Bigwig , that the Washington Post didn’t ferret out Watergate , but the FBI shoved their noses in it , that President Nixon hated the FBI by this point , and it was the FBI that had to get rid of him.
( Not that Nixon was some sort of Simon – pure Angel. More like ; A shark recognizes another shark. )
The Democrats couldn’t organize a prosecution of the Girl Scouts.
Watergate was an FBI show.
What about the Secret Service ?
A standard Western World education in the 18th Century included not only a familiarity with the Bible , but with Greco – Roman history.
Indeed , THAT was the standard history or civics curriculum at the time. Study history ? — that means you study Sulla and Caracalla and Ptolemy and such.
So , many of these people were quite familiar with the Praetorian Guard. And , at best , they looked askance at such a thing , at worst they saw it as utterly repugnant in principal.
DICTATORS need a Praetorian Guard.
Praetorian Guards are shear poison to a republic , or to an old school monarchy for that matter. A king only needs a Praetorian Guard if he aims to cast aside the mores and traditions that gave him his place in the first place , and aims at dictatorship.
There was nothing like a Secret Service for fully the first 70 years of the republic.
It was then excused as an ” emergency measure ” on account of civil war.
And then , of course , everyone proceeded subsequently to conveniently forget that this new normal was just yesterday a morally repugnant deviancy.
What about the ATF ?
Tax collectors with badges and guns.
— Not that I object to tax collectors.
— Not that I object to tax collectors with guns and badges either.
But it does strike me as deeply sickening this pretense that their concern with bootleggers is a concern with the negative social effects of alcoholism.
Shear rot ! The state wants its cut of the alcohol trade. That’s their concern.
And I don’t think they are really concerned if the Branch Davidian’s are stockpiling AK – 47’s.
Call me stupid , but I wonder if the Branch Davidian’s could beat the Los Angeles Dodgers in a real street fight.
No , I think it has far more to do with the fact that Russia and the United States are the worlds two greatest arms dealers.
That is to say , the interest of the US government in the arms trade is like unto the motives of WalMart in the apparel , electronics , candy , or tire trades.
No grander or more noble than that.
If anything , Walmart may come out looking the better in comparison.
For example , I will again point out that primarily American and British money built the Soviet war machine.
And you can look that up in the Encyclopedia Britannica too.
—
” In any case, I never EVER heard any locker room talk suggesting that our function was other than maintaining the peace. ”
And neither have I.
For my part , I have never claimed other than that soldiering or policing are jobs , employment , like unto selling electrical supplies , or fixing broken toilets are jobs , employment.
I DON’T sort the world into sheep and goats , into superiors and inferiors .
The most I will ever say about policing or soldiering is that the costumes are better ( at least sometimes ) and it makes for more entertaining TV shows and movies , unlike delivering mail , or washing dishes in a kitchen.
But then , drug addicts and serial killers make for more interesting TV shows and movies than do boring normal – type people too.
The interesting aspect signifies nothing.
Porno movies always appeal to prurient and morbid interest , and everybody takes their clothes off.
Conventional movies appeal to prurient and morbid interest fully 95 % of the time , at least , and everybody keeps their clothes on , and not uncommonly wear odd clothes.
( Hmm , now I want to write an essay on that subject ! )
Big difference there ! * sarcasm *
You would think people would grow out of taking entertainment at face value ?
TO ME soldiers and police are merely people in interesting costumes and with interesting gear , and that’s ALL.
They neither walk on water , but nor are they Lucifer incarnate.
I guess my BIG INSULT is that my verdict is that they are ORDINARY , AVERAGE , MUNDANE , PROSAIC ?
Waitresses don’t have to worry about getting killed every time they go to work , though ?
A lawyers TV commercial that runs at least 50 times a day on my TV assures me that the former asbestos manufactures have set aside a multi – BILLION dollar trust fund on account of the fact that ordinary employment commonly does cost ordinary workers their lives.
Mesothelioma is a death sentence. There is no halfway effective treatment , and certainly no cure .
How did people get Mesothelioma ?
They got it simply by going to work.
Call me stupid , but I have no trouble believing that TV commercial.
That’s just one isolated example , but there are many , many , many others.
Once upon a time the best paying job in Eastern Kentucky , by far , for ordinary nobodies was coal mining.
Not everybody , or even most , die in mining accidents.
But Black Lung IS endemic . Commonplace . Par for the course. A Rules – of – the – game – type thing.
For ten , twenty , even thirty years you’ll make 20 or 30 dollars an hour.
But there is a very good chance that at age 50 or 60 , or even maybe 40 , you will be coughing your lungs out via your mouth.
And it’s really nobodies particular crime or fault in this case. It’s just an ordinary consequence of ordinary life.
Sure , you DON’T HAVE TO work in the coal mine.
You could spend the next 30 years of your life working for 5 dollars an hour at Burger King .
You could spend the next 30 years of your life living under the accusation ; ” Why can’t you get your act together ( at 5 dollars an hour ) ? ”
So , you could say , people commonly wind up sacrificing their lives over the mere peer pressure bullshit of teenage high school cliques – type shit.
It winds up costing you your life merely to avoid looking like a loser.
When , secretly , the people who cooked up the term loser have never sat down even for one hour to ponder what exactly the definition of loser should be , what the term is supposed to mean.
Well ,
long enough reply as is.
Waco —
— In that case , my point was not to bash the police.
— or even to bash the US government for that matter.
My point was to bash this mindset that underlines everything bad the other team does , a hundred times over .
But never seems to get around to underlining the bad shit your own team did , or , if it is mentioned , it is explained away somehow , except it isn’t really explained away.
In this particular case , I look at it this way ;
If I put myself in the shoes of the ten year old girl I once was ,
and present myself with a Hobson’s choice —
— You can be molested .
— Or you can be run over by a tank.
Call me crazy , or call me scum , or whatever , but I would pick being molested.
Being molested may suck , but at least I’m still breathing afterwards.
It’s a pretty good bet I won’t be breathing after being run over by a tank , however.
Now — All of that may not make David Koresh the hero leader of the good guys.
But , certainly , the claims of the FBI and the ATF are fatuous and absurd on their face.
I have to agree with that and your previous post about coalmining jobs.
Well yes, surviving is the ultimate goal. But isn’t the biggest question at the moment then, why in the first place are we having to deal with these brutal, interventionist invasion policies? It seems very important to question these realities when certain people are so easily able to bring the full authority of the state against those who may simply have a different take on reality. After all, isn’t reality sort of like languages? Which might then explain why the different sides are distrustful of the others? If you’re not speaking the same language then there will be no understanding. Which maybe then once again comes down to whether you wish to trust the Law who lives next door versus a roving band of Mx. Smith automatons who report to a criminal warlord a thousand miles away. But it is a very real predicament. And that is why I don’t like politics and why I apologize for having accused Tucker Carlson of being a clandestine Marxist revolutionary and ally of the oligarchs.
