The Time of Our Time

We have not been so ripe for regime change since 1776. A ruling Party of Chaos is doing absolutely everything to disorder our lives and there really is no generous interpretation for its motives

Let’s face it: most people will not read Justice Alito’s carefully crafted arguments about what the constitution says or doesn’t say about abortion, or the meaning of “ordered liberty” through our history. We do not live in history. We live in the time of our time. And, until just recently, this has been a time that discarded former modes of conduct between men, women, and children as inconvenient to the presumably greater project of self-actualization.

To be-all-that-you-can-be is a stirring notion, and it seemed to work nicely within the colossal techno-industrial armature of the past century, with all its inducements to thrive personally, at least for the comfortable elites who pulled the levers of that system — though not so much for those below caught in the gears, who produced children despite all the novel means for avoiding it. For the fortunate, motherhood became just another “no” box to check off, while fatherhood merged into the odious mists of obsolete patriarchy. History is made up of things that seem like good ideas at the time. The hard part now is moving out of a familiar time into the undiscovered country of a new time.

The support system for all that is going, going, gone and in the ensuing flux all that rousing self-actualization starts to look more like Thomas Hobbes’s war of all against all, a savage and pre-human state of nature. As this occurs, all human beings have to fall back on are modes of conduct that include a moral and ethical dimension, which is to say, what is right and what is wrong, not just what is allowed at a given moment.

Which is also to say: maybe the time of smashing boundaries is over. As that scaffold of techno-industrial comfort and safety disintegrates, and all the dazzling promises of becoming transhuman dissolve — sorry, Klaus Schwab — we will likely have to settle for being human again, and in the best way, not the worst way. That includes a certain reverence for our nature and for each other. That suggests not killing children.

These days, this place on the planet that used to be a nation groans under a tribulation of bad ideas, bad choices, bad conduct, bad management, and bad faith. We have not been so ripe for regime change since 1776. A ruling Party of Chaos is doing absolutely everything to disorder our lives and there really is no generous interpretation for its motives. Everything it touches breaks, wilts, withers, splinters, rots, poisons, and infects the body politic, driving it deeper into derangement. It doesn’t even pretend to make sense because that would require making distinctions between what is true and what’s not true. We follow-the-science into pure evil.

What awaits is the abandoned scaffold of the family and the community as opposed to the brute hierarchies of mere lonely, forsaken persons under the leviathan state and the behemoth corporation, which have produced mainly new kinds of cruelties, such as: the deadly “vaccine” mandates, the no-knock FBI visitations, the surveillance cameras, the robotic phone trees with their interminable holds, the obtuse insults of the HR departments, the drag queens twerking in your children’s faces, and much more. You might not know it from the news — what is the news now, anyway, except mercenary shuck-and-jive — but these giant governments and corporations are thrashing in their death throes. Get out of their way if you possibly can. Form the bonds you can with people and cherish them. For many, they will be all you’ll have for a while.

You can’t overstate the havoc that we’ll have to live with in the months ahead, short of blowing up the whole joint, one can hope. And it will happen just as a gigantic set of pretenses to a New Order of things rolls out to thumping failure. Forget about central bank digital currencies. Don’t believe that the very people who have severed the relationship between actual capital and money can just magically conjure a new order of money that they propose to control and you don’t. Meanwhile, the old-school money they created too much of is headed for the biggest gaping black hole imaginable because that’s what happens when money based on debt is not paid back. So, for a while, there will be too much money and then there will be not enough, and then nobody will have money.

All that happens as the supply of every kind of stuff in the world stops moving from Point A to Point B, including replacement parts for every sort of machine, distribution of petroleum and its products, and food. And at the same time, it finally becomes too obvious to ignore the fact that many millions are dying or becoming disabled from the effects of the mRNA vaccines foisted on the public, especially in the USA and Europe.

Out of all that suffering will eventually come a new respect for human life and reconstructed relations between men and women, with all the abstruse ambiguities, pretensions, and nebulosities about sex put aside for some future age of decadence. It won’t require further agonizing reappraisals by any high courts to figure it out. Children are the consequence of sex. Children are required to carry on the human project.

    In our current age of decadence, I saw something out of SF or somewhere on the West Coast where at a “pride” event – naked men were walking around in front of children, without a care in the world. How did they become so self-absorbed to think that was acceptable behavior. Then, I saw twerking Dobbs protestors and videos on twitter of crazed women having primal breakdowns. Almost unbelievable.

    • Walter B June 27, 2022 at 9:30 am #

      I do believe that it has always been customary for those who worship Satan to engage in deviant corporal acts of sex and violence. That’s one explanation.

      Another might be that once Barney the Purple Dinosaur abandoned them and their “everyone is so special” status and they realized that the world considers them as just another asshole, they act out as only spoiled, rotten brats can do.

      • Penelope Dreadful June 27, 2022 at 9:35 am #

        Oh, and 400 LB women hollering “My body, my choice!” and threatening to withhold sex. Withhold from what, Water Buffalos??? OMG!

        • Walter B June 27, 2022 at 9:49 am #

          Now you’ve hit a raw never for me, my dear. Our township was run by club of 450-pound bullies and our school system lauded over by their 450-pound wives. We called them The Water Buffalos, no kidding! I was able to thwart them for a few years until they resorted to a massive Facebook assault upon me and those that supported me, so I was thrown out of office at the end of last year. When I was growing up, I recall it being said that fat people were happy people. Looks like that’s changed dramatically.

          I am running again this year as the Kennedy Democrat that I always run, but in a 2 to 1 R to D community it is probably futile. Oh well, it is not as important that we win, but that we continue to fight. Never let them see you run.

            “And, until just recently, this has been a time that discarded former modes of conduct between men, women, and children as inconvenient to the presumably greater project of self-actualization.”

            all facilitated by the cancer of feminism.

            Walter B

            Boy, I do not picture you as a Kennedy Democrat.

            What in the Democrat dogma do you actually believe in?

            Unions? History.

            Protect the working class? Not this Democratic Party.

            Against the corporate bosses. The biggest change, corporations are all Leftist.

            So why aren’t you a Conservative using the 2-1 rating to benefit your community?

          • bluedog June 27, 2022 at 11:00 am #

            Lol John, they’re from AZ. lost in his party rhetoric and his conservative slant reminds me of a joke my father use to tell about what constituted a good Conservative. ” It seems a good conservative (if one exist) goes to church on Sunday to show the community what a good Christian he is, and then steals the collection plate on his way out to pay for his time”. And that’s why I stay away from anything that has anything to do with a conservative, in case it’s catching like the virus with the same effect and no vaccine can cure it.

          • Walter B June 27, 2022 at 11:25 am #

            JohnAZ, I registered as a democrat when I turned 18 in 1972 because I adored John F. Kennedy and his brother Bobby and what they fought for which is what I stand for to this day:

            -That we should ask what we can do for our country and not what our country can do for us;

            -That government should regulate business, NOT be owned by it;

            -That the unholy matrimony of organized crime and government would lead to the destruction of our democracy. (Too late!)

            -I also believe in and respect the working human beings in our nation, who have all been cast aside by the wealthy elite that rule us.

            After the corruption of the Johnson administration and the incompetence of the Carter administration I switched to independent and often voted third party and libertarian. I voted for Junior Bush to keep Kerry out and that did not work well, did it?

            No, Kennedy Democrat it is, and Tulsi Gabbard and I may be the only two in that party. The democrat party today is corrupt and evil, and the republicans are incompetent and useless with a few exceptions like Rand Paul and Ron DeSantis, both of which I admire greatly.

            In the end, it’s not about Jackass or Dumbo, it’s about people, character, and morality. I take people one at a time and I do not attend parties.

          • Walter B June 27, 2022 at 11:30 am #

            Oh, and BTW John, I DID go the R route, but our township’s republican county committee manipulates the “magic line” to keep the corrupt politicians they support (and support them $$$), on the top line where single button line voters in the primary keep the crooks in office and the honest people on the sidelines.

            Look up ballot manipulation, it’s big in NJ and probably elsewhere as well. I was able to spend 6 years in office with two as mayor and pay down and restructure our debt from $6.1M to $600K. Good thing too, the interest rate on our BAN’s just doubled this year.

          • JohnAZ June 27, 2022 at 11:50 am #

            WalterB

            Wow, I do understand.

            The East Coast, IMHO, is eaten up by the Deep State Mob and it’s politics are different than here.

            Or least used to be. The open border and California have just about turned Arizona Blue.

          • shotho June 27, 2022 at 12:09 pm #

            Interesting, that concept of self-actualization. It was once a respected idea that Abraham Maslow promoted forty years ago. His idea is that there are five stages of character development, culminating in that of self-actualization. He meant something entirely different than behavior today. It was almost a spiritual level of being, so that a person could renounce the material and live close to what Christ requested, die to self and live for others.

          • Jarek June 27, 2022 at 12:16 pm #

            As an Irish Catholic, JFK was a demi-god to us, another Parnell. I was saddened to learn that the 1965 Immigration Act passed over his desk with his approval.

          • Jarek June 27, 2022 at 12:18 pm #

            Shotho: People confuse advanced transpersonal states with pre-personal states because neither of them are personal or egoic.

            Four hundred pound people twerking in diapers is a clear case of the latter.

          • Walter B June 27, 2022 at 12:27 pm #

            Thank you Hands4u. The funny part is that the corrupt R’s have thrown an honest EMT off of the committee by beating him in the primary with the corrupt lawyer that we threw out when I became mayor. He had been billing us $200K a year for every day legal expenses for years that we were able to contract for a flat rate of $60K for the same services. The county average was $50K.

            For those of us that have attended numerous political fund-raising events, it is clear to see that lawyers and legal firms are HUGE contributors to political parties, at least the R’s and the D’s, and we know where they get it from.

            As a political candidate I will have the freedom to speak out and expose the corruption without any of the liabilities that a regular citizen has because in politics, there are no rules. Shine the light on the cockroaches and maybe someone will step on them.

            “it is not as important that we win, but that we continue to fight. Never let them see you run.”

            Walter B., you’re the kind of American that brings a lump to my throat.

            I will never be a Christian, not in a million years, but if you called, I would kneel, kiss the Cross, unsheath my sword, and run singing into battle.

          • Alzaebo June 27, 2022 at 2:15 pm #

            My first lesson in politics was from JFK!

            (Our teachers weren’t mean, but we did have to sit on the stool in the corner wearing the dunce cap. Some more often than others.)

            Teacher called me to her desk, pointed to a picture on it, and said, “do you know who this is?”

            I said no. She said, “That is President John F. Kennedy…and do you know what President Kennedy wants you to do?”

            I said, “No…”

            She said, “President John F. Kennedy…
            Wants you to be QUIET!!”

          • Alzaebo June 27, 2022 at 2:52 pm #

            Maslow for Christ, LOL

          • DaveO907 June 27, 2022 at 5:20 pm #

            @Jarek—I’m curious. You say it crushed you that JFK had passed the 1965 Immigration Act. This has me wondering about things that I remember being alive and somewhat sentient (12 years old) in 1963, the year JFK was assassinated.

            I recall that bit of work being done by LBJ at the behest of a strong lobbying effort.

          • Anon1970 June 27, 2022 at 6:13 pm #

            Jarek @ 12:16 By 1965, JFK had already gone to his reward and LBJ had won the 1964 election against Nixon. Congressman Emmanuel Cellar (D-NY) spent 40 years trying to get the Immigration Act of 1924 changed. If he were to come back from the dead, i wonder what he would think of his crowning achievement, the Immigration Act of 1965. Under the old rules, there never would have been “The Squad” in Congress.

          • Jarek June 28, 2022 at 12:47 am #

            Yes, I knew that. But I heard that he had privately given his approval to the whole thing. That’s what I meant to say. And of course his brothers championed it and civil rights in general. Ted especially but also Bobby in the short time that he had.

        • Disaffected June 27, 2022 at 9:55 am #

          LMFAO!

          I see the latest J Crew commercial on TV the other day had two brief shots of fatties in their swimwear. Very brief. Like they wanted to score some woke points as briefly as they could before getting back to the emaciated youngsters.

          • justanotherguy June 27, 2022 at 10:13 am #

          • Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 11:53 am #

            They tell the fatties that it’s good they look that way. To cover up exactly what is making so many Americans lose control over their weight.

        • HowardBeale June 27, 2022 at 11:17 am #

          P, You’ve condensed it–the argument. The Democrats thought this would be their path to victory in 2022. But, you know that old Grouch Marx saying? “I’d never belong to a club that would have me as a member.” Something like that. Pretty much all of the coverage of the “protestors” is like some kind thing that Barnum and Bailey could only have dreamed of cooking up in the genetic backroom. The bearded woman? The boy with two heads? The snake with human hands? Nothing compares to what is being publicly broadcast to the nation.

          See the Democrats.
          See the Democrats protest.
          See everyone else in the country run from the Democrats–in fear of being squashed.
          “She fell on my son. Now he is just so much son paste smeared across the vastness of her enormous body.”

          “I would never belong to a club that would have me as a member.”
          Millions of decent Democrats are watching this and thinking, “Honey, how do order those change of political party forms?”

      The throngs of leftist useful idiots are pounding on the doors of morality and right thinking, demanding that we turn over our principles to them, just like they did when they pounded on Lut’s door, demanding Lut turn over the angles of God sent to destroy them.

      • JohnAZ June 27, 2022 at 10:38 am #

        Lot offered his own daughters to the perverts of Sodom to protect the angels. The Leftists today do not fear God as they do not believe in His existence. Evil destroys, what goes around, comes around. The real shame is the destruction of this run of evil will probably mean the destruction of the US.

        • Alfred June 27, 2022 at 11:17 am #

          Therein lies the first principle of knowing what a leftist is…

          All of their moral authority stems from their being no moral authority to turn to in their belief system, thus they foolishly attempt to fill the void with their own corrupted view of what that should be. It get’s more corrupt the further up the power chain you go.

          • JohnAZ June 27, 2022 at 11:55 am #

            Well said.

            Think right now.

            The answer to the R v W decision is the elimination of the SC according to AOC and her gang. So much for respecting the Constitution, the Law of the Land, and the balance of power.

            The biggest joke of all is when the Dems claim what they are doing is to preserve democracy. They want one thing only,

            Uniparty despotism.

          • Alfred June 27, 2022 at 12:22 pm #

            Ah yes… When they speak of “Our democracy,” they really don’t include any party that dissents from their view. Their democracy is threated by our republic. As well it should.

            AOC and her coddled ilk are not capable of thinking through anything. They have zero space between stimulus and emotional response, and zero emotional intelligence in their response.

            SCOTUS handed all of us a boat load more democracy last week than ever before. The leftists banging on the door don’t understand that the decision made, and subsequently unmade by 5 people, has been given back to the all of the people in America. That’s not so subtle a thought as to escape the average high school student, well back in 1976 anyway.

        • Alzaebo June 27, 2022 at 2:30 pm #

          “Lot offered his own daughters to the perverts of Sodom to protect the angels.”

          What a fascinating political subtext.
          Angels, “messengers”, were spies.
          If only the Christians would stop turning a political chronicle into magic. (I find no deities in the Bible.)

          Side note: a “pillar of salt” meant his wife became barren, unable to conceive, just as “holy in the Lord unto his old age” meant a man was still virile, able to father children.

    • Hereward the Woke June 27, 2022 at 1:45 pm #

      Nothing unbelievable about it, Penelope. It’s pretty standard fare during a time of complete civilizational breakdown.

    • ThorsHammer June 28, 2022 at 1:08 pm #

      As “civilizations” near their point of collapse sub-human deviants emerge to express their deepest desires. Wringing our hands doesn’t eliminate them. More drastic measures are in order.

      I’m going to switch the dialog to something we can do something about. The collapse of the food supply chain in the USA. In this country we have developed a just-in-time food production system that grows food by mining the Ogallala Aquifer and the diminishing flows of the Colorado River to grow crops on chemical steroids and ship them by truck to cities thousands of miles away where the growing season is on a different cycle. Along comes $10.00 diesel on the world market (Germany and the EU) driven my the insane idea that sanctioning the major supplier will drive Russia into collapse rather than shooting the West in the foot.

      Compare the delivery chain of food to that of another place you can move to with little barrier to immigration and about 1/2 the US living cost.

      The Mexican coast immediately north of Puerto Vallarta is called the Mexican Riviera, in part from wishful thinking and part from reality. It is by no means a “cheap” area of the country. On this stretch of coastline are four former fishing villages. The southernmost is overrun with international tourists day tripping from the big city 20 miles to the south. The northern most is almost entirely the vacation destination of Mexican tourists arriving by freeway from Guadalajara. Base rent for a modest apartment or house that isn’t on the beach starts at $400-$600 per month. Almost all the food (unless you want gringo specialty items) is grown within an hour’s drive of the town, and often sold by the farmer who raised it.

      Which food distribution system will be the most resilient when the SHTF?

      • ThorsHammer June 28, 2022 at 1:38 pm #

        In the US our $10 +++ diesel will be driven by decades of sanctions against Venezuela and theft of their international trading capital reserves and gold. . Is it any wonder that they are joining the BRICK alliance and looking to China to provide capital (at a price) to modernize their petroleum industry?

        In order to blend diesel from crude you need the heavy tar-like oil that comes from the wells of Venezuela. The watery stuff that fracking squeezes from shale rock is worthless without heavy oil to blend into it. Once upon a time the mouth of the Mississippi was lined with refineries specifically designed to blend and refine Venezuelan crude. Pump diesel was about 3/4 the price of the cheapest grade of gasoline. Now we no longer have the ability to refine sufficient diesel to run our transportation system or access to the world’s fourth largest reserves of the base feed stocks.

        Did shooting yourself in the foot hurt? Do it again! Germans and Poles— buy a lot of old wood furniture— you are going to need it to keep warm this winter.

        “As “civilizations” near their point of collapse…” ~ ThorsHammer

        …they go tribal.

        Something you may or may not have overlooked.

        The laws of civilization change to the laws of the jungle. Strength in numbers.

        Gringo’s will never survive there – never be a member of the tribe – always an outsider. Don’t kid yourself. Mexicans will eat – you won’t.

        Outgun the native cartels? Hardly. There’s a very thin veneer of governmental authority there – lots moving under the rug – the cartels run the country – not unlike here, just more efficient, read ruthless.

        Now, I could be way off base – by your handle, I figure Northern European descent – if Mexican, ignore the above, you’re good to go.

        Just spent a week in Burlington, VT. Local told me that the city is run on 100% renewable energy (logging waste, hydro and wind) and has a “breadbasket” that provides much of the food for pantries and restaurants. The abundance of water, natural resources, wild game, remote parts and geological features made me consider this as one potential geographical solution. Besides the obvious political demographics, I would recommend interior New England for anyone wanting to relocate to weather the storm. Best Wishes!

    Although I am certain that it could never be made to happen, to me at least, the most pain, death, and violence free way to deal with this dilemma is for US(A) to break apart into two separate countries. One, where anything goes, nothing really matters, and no one really cares, and the other where those living there adhere to the rules and laws established by those Founding Fathers way back when.

    I am growing sick and tired of hearing lines of bullshit such as “it not really a human being”, the Constitution is an outdated rag and needs to be “updated””, and “not only can I do whatever I want to do to my body and force to to accept it and do the same”.

    The real danger in replacing God with money and material objects is that those who control the money have the ability to remove it’s value either immediately, or slowly over time which results in the worshippers not only losing their “money” but all the “stuff” they procured and maintained ownership over. “You’ll own nothing and be happy”? Yeah, right, happy that they still let you live. THAT can be corrected at any time, correct Herr Schwab, or is it Slob?

    • Disaffected June 27, 2022 at 10:00 am #

      The breaking apart itself will cure much of the stupidity, Walter. It’s the wages of empire run by the satanic globalist cabal in DC that’s making us nuts. Personally, I think it needs to be regional, though. More like 6 or 8, maybe more, but absolutely no less than 4. Democracy withers in direct proportion size.

        I see your point though, what do you do with Minnesota, or Colorado, or Illinois.

        Like India, it may take the dislocation of millions to get real boundaries.

        But the real division is between areas that are primarily metropolises and everyone else. City folks are just too damned dependent.

        The first two potential rebellions are forming now, Texoma and the Redoubt in the NW.

        What will be the reaction of the Deep State to the states forming new countries?

        I will tell you one thing, the Red areas have to find a way to stop the Liberals from immigrating into their areas. The mental illness that is Liberalism is very contagious. California has just about destroyed the goodness of the entire West.

They never learn their lesson. Even though they flee from the destruction they’ve caused, as soon as they get somewhere else, they destroy the place they fled to in exactly the same way. They really need a zoo of their own.

          Migration of Wokists from Blue states to Red ones is not the only source of infection. The ideology of the Left is spread by all forms of mass media, the ubiquitous Internet, Hollywood entertainment, and a thoroughly debauched and corrupted educational system.

          That’s a LOT of vectors of infection to have to defeat. My own take is that we are all probably doomed to endure the collapse this is ushering in, and yet I also feel strongly that we are all duty bound to resist this manifest evil with every fiber in our bodies.

          So…..yeah, I’m for secession and partition, and I have been since at least 1995. I saw the futility of the American project going forward during the Clinton administration and the events of the past 5 years have only served to solidify those views.

          • Woodchuck June 28, 2022 at 11:28 am #

            The primary source of the “infection” is our school systems. These school systems are both extremely inefficient and costly, requiring vast amounts of energy resources like the fuel and the vehicles for busing/driving students around everywhere. Add to that all the building maintenance costs, climate control, etc. and the system breaks down completely when the resources (tax base) to support it all no longer exists, at least not on the local levels where the funding comes in. It’s all a situation that can be fixed quickly by natural means after the dollar dies. Our educational system will die with it.

        The “glue” holding the USA together is the dollar. Once the dollar is no longer accepted as payment for imports, we might just break apart into separate nations or confederations of states because our federal government lost the ability to pay its bills – bankrupt!.
        We’ll be forced to “start over” and rebuild our manufacturing facilities. This will require not only skilled managers and engineers but a skilled blue collar workforce. At the moment, at least where I reside, our construction workforce consists mostly of hispanics. Most of us white boyz these days are hanging around indoors doing low paid white collar work or involved in using and selling addictive drugs. Good luck turning all of them into electricians, carpenters, roofers, welders, laborers etc. I used to do residential construction work, a lot of it framing houses, pouring concrete, etc. It’s a job that hurts, sometimes it will literally make you bleed. There’s a bit of my blood stains on every house I helped build. I don’t see the feminized woke crowd being able to do any of this type of work.

        • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 1:36 pm #

          Construction jobs used to be union, like meat packing, truck-driving and farm work.
          Then they brought in immigrants to work cheap and break the unions.
          Then they tell us “Americans won’t do those jobs”.
          That is adding insult to injury.

            In my opinion, it’s changed from “won’t do” to “can’t do”. New generations of young males have spent nearly all their time locked up in public schools, taught nonsense and no real world skills. Not only that, but their bodies are soft and pudgy unless maybe they are involved in school sponsored sports. Big deal. Joe blow is a big stud in high school pushing a ball around. Put him on a house framing crew in 95 degree heat all day long and see how he does. Or have him pouring, leveling, and finishing concrete for a factory floor. He’ll be as big a clutz with that starting out as the nerds will be. At some time in the future, we’ll be needing factories here to make shoes and boots for example. If it turns out that we “can’t do those jobs” then we might find ourselves going about barefoot or with rags wrapped around our feet until we “can do those jobs.”

            Not only did they do that, but they enforced the idea that those jobs were not worth doing by lowering the wage to the point people began to believe it.

            They hire one journeyman to clean up after several teams of $10 dollar an hour illegals.
            Yes, the houses are crap, yes, the framing, plumbing, electrical and drywall is poorly done but hey we still get 800,000. for it so who cares?

          I can’t help thinking of ancient Britain after the Romans left. They left all their working infrastructure behind – central heating, indoor plumbing, roads and bridges that could last a thousand years. The early Brits just camped out in what was left until it all fell apart. There were definitely people among them who knew how to keep it all running, but there were not nearly enough of them. I’m afraid something very similar will happen here, and it will look a lot like Antifa’s takeover of part of Seattle.

        • Wizard of the Saddle June 28, 2022 at 8:15 am #

          I agree. Interestingly, one of the outcomes of the coming American crackup will be the final realization of the emergence of a Southern nation comprised of most of the states of the Old Confederacy and perhaps a few border states that didn’t quite make it out of this accursed union during the last great falling-out between Americans. Jefferson Davis understood that secession was just a term describing the right of any people to political self-determination. The Yanks may have squashed that right with bayonets in 1861-65, but Davis predicted in his memoirs that the cause of the South (for independence) was bound to reassert itself, but at a later time and in another form. I think that prophesy will soon come to pass.

          What will emerge will not be a resurrection of the Old Confederacy and the antebellum Southern aristocracy. But it will be a very conservative and religious nation with strong ties to the history and traditions that have shaped our region since before America’s founding. The influence of the Scots-Irish culture as described in James Webb’s book, “Born Fighting” (2004) will be felt once more as a new chapter is written in the history of North America.

          The South, for all of its flaws, is a region with an authentic culture and a true national character. Texas also shares these traits and may tag along with Dixie again, but this time as the leading powerhouse state, rather than Old Virginia which reluctantly and tardily fulfilled that role in the War for Southern Independence.

          I also think that the possibility exists that some Midwest and Rocky Mountain states might opt to join the emerging Southern nation in order to maximize the economic and military power of the new Ruby Red Republic for the benefit of all of the Right-leaning states. So what emerges will have a strong Southern accent, but may not ultimately prove to be an exclusively Southern project.

            I was a small child in the early 50’s growing up in a small and somewhat hillbilly town in the foothills of the Great Smokies Park. Not many people had air conditioning at home in those days. The movie theatres and beer joints downtown did, and maybe the buses. I walked or rode my bike to a small local elementary school, and all our classes had for cooling was open windows and a big fan on a pedestal up front. The long emergency here in the south might include unreliable, too expensive, or rationed electricity. Periods here in southern heat and humidity with no ac will separate the men from the boys.

        I agree that regional solidarity is the fundamental principle of rebuilding upon the Dis-United Former USA. But the second bedrock principle is that none of the new nation/states have the ability to ever aspire to becoming and Empire and dominating the rest of the world like the current failed Republic.

        The New Order will also need city/states to provide refuge for incorrigible deviants. I propose that San Francisco be re-named the Principality of Buttfuck.

The flyover, with a few exceptions, will follow their conservative lead with little allegiance other than the installation of patriotic American ideals. The West Coast might just join with BC to ally with China. Maybe Alaska too.

The East Coast with its massive cities greatly exceeds its carrying capacity. The seven million people in NYC cannot all start gardens. The East Coast I posit cannot live without the Midwest. The East Coast might want to buy what the Midwest grows, but what does it have to trade of value? Stocks and bonds? LOL.

            I haven’t seen or researched the numbers, but my guess is the West Coast might make a go of it if they got rid of half of the useless population that will simply not adjust to an agrarian lifestyle without hair gel, skin toner, and plastic surgery. SoCal hasn’t got its own water. does it? Oregon and Washington and NoCal might not feel like diverting their water to LA/SanDiego. The Colorado is nearly bone dry already, and CO and AZ aren’t likely to feel like saving any for SD county. Without the defense industry, what does SoCal have to export? Tasty waves?

            A kindly note, it’s “Aztlan”, a mythic rebirth of the Aztec Empire.

            They called themselves the “Mexica”- thus the country’s name- Aztec was a name given by Spaniards, I think.

            Mythic, because the Aztecs couldn’t expand north, due to the primitiveness and savagery of the Yaqui Indios. Most northern Mexicans are Yaqui, the short brown people, thus Mexican class racism between the lighter mestizo caustizos and their poor brown “trash” they happily dump over our border. My neighbors are Yaqui farmers from the desert mountains of Sonora.

            Plus, I think Hawaii will go back to being a Japanese protectorate, since it’s 3/5ths Japanese now. The native Hawaiians are about 1/6th.

            the Fifth Sun that arrived with Hernando Cortes’s galleons?

            Well, in their log, they wrote that they were met by three natives on the beach; two stayed, but one ran away.

            The entire movie was to explain the one that ran away. Is that cool or what?

            ****

        I think the lines will draw themselves in the midst of national chaos and crisis. As in 1861, the process will leave partisans of each side stranded behind enemy lines, as happened to both Southern Unionists and Northern Copperheads and Border State secessionists.

        Had the South won the war in the 1860’s I have no doubt that there would have been a good deal of immediate post-war mass migration of folks not willing to live in the wrong country that no longer held their allegiance.

        It will be the same today. If partition occurs, millions will leave blue cities trapped deep within the emergent Ruby Red Republic (RRR) to decamp to the New England and Pacifica Communist enclaves on the East and West coasts. Likewise, rural conservatives in those areas will seek to break away and join thei counties to the RRR. Failing that, they will pull up stakes and flee before they can be rounded up and hauled off to the Blue State gulags.

      I generally agree with you. However, what do we do with people who are stuck living somewhere due to employment, family, or similar reasons? I fucking detest the shrieking hag who’s governor of New York and the single party that runs this state, but I’m stuck here because of my job, my wife’s job, and my wife’s family. Moving across the state line would mean we’d become Pennsyltucky ridge runners, who at least are closer to my ideology than Rochester gang bangers or Manhattan swells. Hopefully this can be worked out in such a way that people don’t lose their asses or their minds.

      • Not_GeorgeT June 27, 2022 at 3:58 pm #

        Bob,

        It presents a problem, 8 states in the Northeast. 7 run by the same party, the 8th barely hanging on to being a free state.

        Stuck, with ability to move decreasing daily. The real estate market lacks price discovery, everything looks overpriced.

        With rising interest rates what one qualifies for as a buyer purchases much less house now than a year ago, and much less than a couple of years ago..

        I think it breaks at some point. ‘Some point’ always seems out of reach.

        I though it should have been allowed to crash in ’08. Instead the can got kicked further down the road.

        The people operating this shitshow will never take steps to correct the errors, they have too much to lose. Many thought the same during the French Revolution. They didn’t realize what they could really lose until it was too late.

        All states are corrupt, some just more than others.

            yes, agree, it was stated, can’t recall exactly where.

            I’m stuck here for a number of reasons, some similar to Bob.

            I’ve had to make plans to ride it out.

            One must play the hand they are dealt. This is a reality of life. The choices start as the cards are viewed. I’m figuring moving to a small rural area with farming in the mix was the best I could do with what I was dealt, thus making the most of it.

            Wishing is wishing, it takes too much time and energy away from making the best plans possible, knowing some unforeseen twists (Murphy’s Law) are already baked in the cake.

            Acquiring skills which do not rely on high tech, such as being able to use tools to make and repair stuff. Being able to look at parts and reverse engineer them in my head to figure out how they come apart and go back together takes up a portion of my time on an almost daily basis. It has become a way of living.

            All the while knowing Murphy is always along for the ride.

      The Constitution could use a few new amendments, term limitations, mandatory retirement for all public officials elected or appointed at 65, 65% vote to pass a bill instead of 51%, 95% of congress would have to be physically seated before the congress could be called into session.
      This would at least become a good starting point for the changes that need to be done.

      • Not_GeorgeT June 27, 2022 at 4:37 pm #

        Amendments to the Constitution need to be considered with care.

        Adding might not be a good idea.

        The 18th Amendment ushered in Prohibition.

        The 21st voided the 18th.

        Not many people think Prohibition was a good idea. However, at the time it seemed like a great idea.

        I think a better idea is void the 17th Amendment, putting the Senate back in the hands of the individual state legislatures. The composition of the Senate would undergo a significant change, bringing it back to the status envisioned by the Founders.

        You could very well see the 65% threshold reached by composition alone.

        The Congress might then have a chance at term limits by legislating them.

        The Congress could also pass legislation removing all the exemptions they have regarding the laws they pass.

        Pass legislation forbidding insider trading with hefty fines exceeding any monetary gain.

        Except for amending to reverse the 17th Amendment, everything else could be accomplished by the legislative process. Requiring the rules committees in the House and Senate to act in a certain manner shouldn’t need Amendments, which is a slippery slope.

        Some people are in favor of a Constitutional Convention. That’s a ‘be careful what you wish for’ idea. Everything would be on the table. Everything.

        The last time it was tried, it started out as ‘fix the Articles of Confederation’. It turned into a coup of sorts, but the people got a Constitutional Republic (it’s not a democracy).

        The states need to take more proactive stances under the 10th Amendment, which might require groups of states filing legal challenges to limit Federal over-reach. Sort of ‘putting them back in their place’ as a small part of the Executive branch designed to facilitate inter-state commerce and make provisions for the common defense of the country without a bunch of 3-letter agencies getting in the way.

        • Mac June 27, 2022 at 10:26 pm #

          Not- Not. A convention of states could be held and restricted to only two items- term limits and repeal of the 17th Amendment

          • Not_GeorgeT June 28, 2022 at 2:24 am #

            Mac,

            I’ll need to look it up, figuring you see my view i don’t want open season on the rights of the people under the present system

          • Not_GeorgeT June 28, 2022 at 2:18 pm #

            Mac,

            After looking it up, here’s what I found:

            to propose amendments to this Constitution:
            either
            two thirds of both houses
            or
            two thirds of the state legislatures can call for a convention to propose amendments

            ratification requires:
            either
            three fourths of the legislatures
            or
            by conventions in three fourths of the states

            what is not so clear is:

            “ as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress”

            I could not find language limiting a convention to specific topics. Where is the wording to support limiting a convention to specific topics?

            Through the years the amendment route has been two thirds of both houses, then sending it to the state legislatures and waiting through the process for three fourths of them to ratify the amendment.

            My fear is a convention free-for-all where the painstakingly crafted document we currently have is shredded into an unrecognizable set of rules going down path to tyranny.

            The original intent of the convention which set up the Constitutional Republic was to fix the Article of Confederation. They scrapped the whole thing and started fresh. I referred to it as a coup, which it was. It seems the fix was so unworkable they needed a fresh start. Why could this not happen again, with the fix heading in a different direction?

            It is not a simple process. The more I’ve looked into the document, the more fascinating it becomes due in part to the nuances of language.

            The current method most commonly used sets the bar rather high, but not impossibly high, to make changes.

            Thanks, I like doing research such as this.

        Representative districts limited to 30,000, drawn by county line (no gerrymandering as done since 1820.)

        The interests of 10,000 Representatives in the House would necessitate repeal of the 17th, giving the sovereign States back their power and preventing the Uniparty.

        • Alzaebo June 27, 2022 at 4:42 pm #

        • Not_GeorgeT June 28, 2022 at 2:35 am #

          NH has 1 legislator per 3,000, one reason the Free State Movement chose it as the best choice among the states.

          Knocking it back to a county-based system is worth a serious look. The smaller the number the representative represents, the more the control rests in the people.

          making it (Congress) a part-time job forces the representative to live with what they enact. it also puts them in a position for real-time feedback from constituents most of the year.

      Do you know the comedy “Idiocracy” (Ethan Cohen, 2006)? It was funny right up until 20 Jan 2017 when it became a documentary.

      The situation you describe above is a direct reflection of the dystopian world predicted in “The Handmaid’s Tale” (Margaret Atwood, 1985).

      It’s quite amusing to read all these posts (above) slamming “Leftists”, yet describing someone I, a professed ‘leftist’, most certainly am not.

      Your religious types need to categorize and stereotype anyone not in agreement with you as basically immoral, amoral, or demonic/evil/possessed, and all crazy (of course).

    Regarding needing those kids:
    As a young guy growing up–until I was 60–I didn’t really think a lot about abortion, as I made sure that it never affected me; i.e., I never got anyone pregnant–by very deliberate and careful planning. And I wasn’t that opposed to abortion, as I thought of it; i.e., more or less the “clump of cells” thing.
    But, of course, “Here. Take this inch…”
    Then we have the predictable response by the child mind of the average Democrat, and soon we have doctors inserting chainsaws into vaginas to hack the limbs off of the nine-month old before that sucker squeezes out–which would then require was is commonly referred to as murder.
    Now I am fully pro-life. Some exceptions; the usual ones that are proposed.
    No more inches, Democrats. We’re gonna put you all back in your high chairs, and we’ll let you down when you grow up.

      I support abortion that is legal and safe and restricted to no longer than 14 weeks and girls under 18 have to have the parent’s permission. I wish every child who was conceived was wanted and would come into the world loved, protected and cared for. But the reality is, that’s not the case. What happened in Romania 20 years ago when abortion was outlawed should be a warning to us that children who are unwanted and placed in overcrowded orphanages die in misery. There’s no answer to this that will make everyone happy — I wish we lived in a world that could care for all children but we don’t.

      • DyersEve June 27, 2022 at 10:20 am #

        yes, this is not a purely black and white issue as there are marginal concerns. but clearly the guiding principle of “abortion as birth control” is utter nonsense that should not be protected in any way. plenty of ways to prevent pregnancy. sex for pure convenient fun is not a basic human need. ru-486 is available. make that easily offered. it’s almost like the Party of Chaos and its adherents truly genuinely love the idea of brutally snuffing out life. it’s almost like they get power (think: Moloch dark energy shit) from it.

            While watching news of the Roe riots, I wonder what would happen if you set up a booth at one of these gatherings and proceeded to slaughter a lamb right there in public? My guess is that the attendees would want the cops to arrest you for animal cruelty.

            Seems kind of ironic.

            I hunted as a child. At university while pursuing an animal science degree, we had to slaughter a pig, a sheep, and a cow and butcher them for a meats class. Pulling a trigger is vastly different from sticking a big knife in a stunned but living pig to sever the aorta and watch the blood gush out. You’re surprised at how easy the knife enters the flesh.

            If we all had to slaughter our own meat, there would be a lot more vegetarians and I suspect fewer abortion supporters.

            “If we all had to slaughter our own meat, there would be a lot more vegetarians and I suspect fewer abortion supporters.”

            Perhaps you are correct in the assertion. I’m not sure.

            Hunters manage what they harvest. If we go more in the direction of small communities growing their own food, raising livestock and birds for consumption will require either skills at home or an increase in butcher shops.

            Then again, some might choose to grow crops and forego meat.

            I’ve taken the view many people don’t understand the idea of stopping a beating heart.

            They don’t hunt and have no idea what the massive slaughterhouses do in an assembly line model of efficient mass slaughter to send product to the supermarkets.

            So, in this light, you might well have a point.

          It is a problem if the couple wants a child whose mother hasn’t used drugs or been drinking and they can know the health history of the parents. That’s one reason couples were going to China to adopt unwanted (surplus) girls — mothers were drug free.

          The next time they got pregnant they had abortions.
          One was 16 the first time and her Catholic mother was the one that insisted she produce that baby and give it away.
          It was her mother who drove her to the abortion clinic the next time.
          The cavalier attitude of people who look at women as production units for the more worthy is unseemly.

            Feminism is a cancer. Having babies is what women are meant to do or the nation dies. If everyone adopts this, then humanity will die.

            Did I say all women are meant to do? No. If some refuse, Ok. Just more burden on the rest. We need a cult of Motherhood. We need a culture that makes motherhood fabulous. Women will respond to that. They are shame based, not guilt based. Or to put it positively, totally into the likes, into being respectable or what is now called “cool”.

          • Anthea June 28, 2022 at 3:17 am #

            @ Paula D:

            You seem to view pregnancy as some kind of unforeseen event that goes around randomly striking women like a bolt out of the blue. Actually, pregnancy is the result of definite choices: the choice to be sexually active, and the choice to do so without using contraception.

            Outlawing abortion does not “force unwilling women to produce babies.” If a woman has decided to engage in procreative activity, she has decided that she is willing to get pregnant. (I think we all know where babies come from.) If she engages in procreative activity without using contraception, she has decided that she WILL get pregnant.

            These are decisions, not something that just “happens” to you, and killing innocent people because they inconvenience you is a good deal worse than “unseemly.”

          You are 100% correct. While in med school, my wife worked in social work adoptions, facilitating such and evaluating parents. There are literally hundreds of potential parents in line for a child at the high quality centers. Latter, we socially met at least a half dozen (no kidding) well off couples who had gone to ukraine and other euro backwaters to, I guess, buy a child. Adoption is wide open with potential; Despite being luke warm to early, 1st trimester abortions under some medical circumstances, I see adoption as the best opportunity for a decent society.

          • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 3:41 pm #

            As I said, neurodoc, giving a baby up for adoption is so traumatic that I knew two hardline anti-abortion women who decided that aborting an embryo was better than handing over a baby to those deemed more worthy, once they did that one time.

            I’ve only known two women who had more than one unwanted pregnancy. One of them was my co-worker, back in the 70s. She had three abortions in less than a year’s time. She knew that she could not take “the pill,” but was sexually active anyway. She was also batshit crazy and probably should have been placed in some kind of protective custody. The other woman had a son that she kept and became pregnant again a couple of years later. She gave the second child up for adoption. This woman lived next door to me in my apartment building. I think she was probably just very lonely, since she seemed to have no friends or family.

            I’ve only known one other woman who gave her baby up for adoption. People who were close to her told me that she always became depressed every year on the child’s birthday.

            Sometimes we have sorrows in life. Avoiding sorrow is not a good reason to kill your baby. Plenty of people cause us sorrows or burdens, but we generally concede that we do not have the right to kill them. There are also plenty of “unwanted” people around. I’ve know quite a few “unwanted” people, but I have always managed to avoid killing them, even though it would have saved me a lot of aggravation if I could have gotten away with it. (Most of them did die, but I had nothing to do with it.)

        SW, I’m on board. No solution. As a teacher for decades in inner city schools, I’ve spent 90% of my time dealing with those unwanted kids.
        Nothing we’ve tried has worked. So, let’s try this solution offered by the Supreme Court. Can it get worse? The decision doesn’t really change things that much, other than the public perception. Maybe some percentage of guys and gals who casually fuck their way into the parent trap might think about it…a little?
        Probably not.

          Once you’ve seen the results of unwanted kids it’s hard not to understand there are some people at some times in their lives, who really don’t need to have a baby. It’s a terrible situation & ultimately it does come down to the man & woman having sex taking responsibility for the conception of a child. But I don’t think that will happen & so here we are.

          • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 3:42 pm #

            So the anti-choice people think it’s better for people too irresponsible to use birth control to be forced into being responsible for a child for 18 years.
            The logic fails me.

        • neurodoc June 27, 2022 at 6:45 pm #

          Paula D; very interesting perspective. My wife as an adoptions SW basically dealt with scared young women and girls who had not chance of being able to care for a baby and probably not themselves. Older women, I don’t know. But, something to think about. Nothing is black and white, its all degrees of grey.

      • R Montanari June 27, 2022 at 12:22 pm #

        We need to encourage responsibility. Make it so if one chooses abortion rather than one of many prophylactic measures, then Fallopian tubes will be tied as well. Same for ADC. Everybody gets one mistake. And what about District attorneys going after the baby daddys for child support? No support no driver’s license.
        Too many people have had the consequences of bad choices removed and so now they think that they should be immune from any consequences.
        The culture of abortion has been a significant contribution to the moral collapse of American society.

            i agree with your criticism – this is a terrible issue to try and pop out “solutions” off the cuff.

            nobody has an answer that can be imposed from above it think, because all of it is a problem at the personal, moral level first.

            the case you mention is a hard edge case where law might be concerned.

            i’ve read many top tier legal minds repeat that hard cases make bad law. in this matter, every case is arguably a hard case. coercive law has been tried and has not worked.

            the matter is being pushed more toward individuals responsibility, which cannot be perfect, but it is not worse.

            IMHO

          • Redneck Liberal June 27, 2022 at 10:13 pm #

            Yeah…these increasingly strident calls for State Control over almost all aspects of the female reproductive process is NOT a shining example of ‘small government’ and ‘individual freedoms’, huh.

            As I understand it, several of the States with ‘trigger laws’ being put into enforcement now or soon, include prosecution if someone goes out of state to get an abortion. Going home again could (actually, will probably) land you in jail.

            The hypocrisy is galling.

      • Mac June 27, 2022 at 10:41 pm #

        SW- I’m sure full orphanages in Romania is more complex than the absence of abortion. Where would we be without a paid foster care system? You cannot justify abortion based on whether or not a child is wanted. However you want to parse it, you still don’t consider the unborn human beings. Think a little more deeply. You’re almost there.

    • Anthea June 27, 2022 at 10:22 am #

      Up until a few years ago, my position on abortion–even though I personally believed that it was wrong–was that the government should just stay out of it. I should also confess that, in my youth (twenties), I was pro-abortion, because “everybody said so,” and I was at an age where you wanted to be trendy.

      What changed my mind, so that I came around to a firm anti-abortion stance, was some long discussions on Facebook with friends who were anti-abortion, back when Trump was running for president. These discussions forced me to really think it through, and I had never done this before.

      • justanotherguy June 27, 2022 at 11:20 am #

        to be younger and thoughtful was and is a tough row.

        for myself, i always had the deep conviction that abortion is wrong. understanding deeply what a tough issue this is, i resolved that it was an issue better left between individuals and God – gov’t involvement of any kind would guaranteed make it worse.

        in the intervening years, i’ve come to understand that it is just as destructive for this to be a social issue. it has been used, along with many other postmodern ideas, to move then entire world’s overton window.

        its like two competing tasks – keep it out of the hands of government, but also keep it out of the hands of the manipulating social engineers.

        the only solution is moral, where we finally agree widely and can enforce socially that there are plenty of means available to virtually eliminate the need for abortion.

        but that is imperfect, because humans are human, and actions cannot be separated from consequences.

        the worst of it is, the social engineers (think fabian socialists) won’t leave this alone because as a divisive issue, it can be a tool for them to hammer the world into their image.

        those are the people that we must condemn, while decency insists that abortion remain condemned on moral grounds.

        this will never be a simple issue – 150 years ago, it was out of the spotlight, and should return to being a private matter of individual responsibility. i don’t think any better is possible.

      • Jarek June 27, 2022 at 12:41 pm #

        Professor Peter Kreeft of Boston College fought all semester with two girls who refused to accept it was murder. One of them came up to him after the semester and said they now accept it is murder – but that they support abortion now more than ever.

        Given the abysmal moral state of America, maybe compromise is necessary, at least until separation or collapse: Fifteen weeks.

      Hear Hear! and look what Colorado did. They made abortion fully legal all the way up to right before the baby is born!!! I was going to say what Doctor worth his “Hippocratic—Oath, FIRST DO NO HARM.”

      Would actually go along with this, and kill a 9 month old baby? Good luck finding a doctor to perform such an evil act, even inside the State of Colorado. I was going to say that.

      Then it hit me again I don’t live in an age of honest good doctors anymore. Especially not since the slant eyed Covid virus popped up like a piece of toast on us all.

      Now they will lie their ass off and go along with anything the CDC says. Not all of them of course but far far too many will.

          I’m pretty sure that the late term abortions were only for unviable fetuses. Now that we have ultrasound they can be detected before birth.
          My friend was told that the fetus she was carrying was unviable because it had no brain, so she was offered the choice.
          She chose to carry to term so that the baby could be an organ donor for a baby born with heart or liver problems,
          The baby died inutero anyway, but she did have that choice.
          I understand that there are lunatics who think that perfectly viable fetuses can be aborted up to term, but I do not think that is what the Colorado law stated.

          • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 1:50 pm #

            I had another friend who had a baby with a heart defect that was unfixable by surgery.
            The baby lived for a month after birth. She got very attached to her, and then had to watch her die.
            That is the kind of choice women have to make. (That one was not found inutero, it was found after birth, so she didn’t really make the choice).

          • Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 2:35 pm #

            Paula, New York’s law provided for abortion for any reason up to birth.

            For some reason, when I try to talk about late term abortion under Roe v. Wade, people keep trying to conflate it with what some rogue MALE governors did in two or three states.

            Late term abortions are only performed legally under extreme circumstances. I’d hate to be the mother faced with this trauma who also had to see all the bashing of women by the ignorant.

            Years ago, there was a case where a child was born with terrible deformities. This was after Roe v. Wade, so obviously the parents wanted the child.

            The baby would need emergency surgery to take nutrition. Then the child would live, probably in pain, until one of its (I don’t remember the sex) serious medical conditions killed it.

            The parents sought advice from clergy and doctors as to what to do next.

            Then a Right To Life attorney from Albany stepped in and tried to get legal custody of the child. I was horrified.

            People do not understand the realities of life. Sometimes it isn’t pretty.

          • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 3:49 pm #

            I agree that abortion of a viable full term baby should be illegal.
            It almost makes you wonder if New York was trying to get people to recoil in horror from all abortion.
            Personally I just roll my eyes at people who believe that a developing embryo before 12 weeks has body parts that evil doctors use, or looks like a human, or is capable of living outside the womb. That just shows their complete ignorance of fetal development.
            I also have no truck with people who look at babies as a punishment for sex, and want to punish ”irresponsible” women by forcing them into childbirth and baby care.
            I know too many irresponsible women who should in no way be entrusted with the care of a child.
            I know 2 women who have had 18 babies between them, because their little feeble brains have been washed by the anti-abortion propaganda. Then they get the babies taken away from them, because they are unfit to raise children, and then they go make another one.
            People who don’t live in the real world are annoying.

          • justanotherguy June 27, 2022 at 5:21 pm #

            everything you’ve related is no doubt true. but it also looks like the worst case every time.

            i can, from personal experience, relate a true story of the opposite of all your examples that has worked out well. i’m not going bother here because those stories are personal, anecdotal, and since there is really no accountability here on a blog post, perceived as doubtful.

            none the less, paying more attention to and replicating the things that work (best case) would almost certainly be preferable to divisive, coercive laws any way.

            there’s a saying in law – tough cases make bad law. its probably one reason this entire abortion matter has gone so far off the tracks.

          You are so right. I’ve told my children when you find a doctor you trust , hang on to them no matter what. I was a nurse for many years & have watched with horror what’s being turned loose on the trusting public — doctors & nurses. You could probably fill a book with true stories and it’s opened my eyes to the reality behind the white coats & scrubs. The public is fed nonsense with medical “dramas” and encouraged to engage in hero worship of fraud doctors like Fauci & attack sane ones like Scott Atlas during the pandemic. “First do no harm” is now a cliche right up there with “have a nice day.”

    • Rowdypiglet June 27, 2022 at 2:58 pm #

      HowardBeale, I used to think exactly the same way. I was in favor of legal abortion because I genuinely believed that it would be done only very early in pregnancy and only in cases of dire need. After all, we’ve had very reliable birth control for a long time. Why would anyone who didn’t want to get pregnant not use it? I thought it would be early and uncommon. As in so many things, I discovered that was just the first step.

      I once thought it was acceptable to let a trans person use the bathroom of their choice. My thinking was that there were almost none of them to begin with, and that if you went to the trouble of having major surgery, I wasn’t going to be churlish about using a bathroom. I could never have imagined (and I have a pretty good imagination) that you would ever be able to “change” your sex by just making a statement to that effect.

      I’m now as rigid as a hunk of concrete and would not give these people an inch on any issue. They’re congenitally dishonest.

        Here is a sort of analogy

        Many decades ago, a majority of the population smoked cigarettes. Put aside any of the physical health issues, I’m heading this towards behavioral health.

        People wouldn’t leave home without a pack of cigarettes. They had them around the house. Regardless of the brand, the pack of cigarettes was pervasive.

        Fast-forward.

        People wouldn’t leave home without their cell phone. It goes with them everywhere, be it in the home or out.

        Just from a behavioral perspective, one has been supplanted by the other.

      I used to love camping out for that reason. By the time you finished cooking dinner over the campfire, you felt like you’d always been there–especially in certain camping spots. I liked the Flint Hills in Kansas a lot, and the Missouri Ozarks, where we went for float trips.

      On one of my last trips (before I got too old), I was coming back from the restrooms in the dark, and the tent looked like it was positively bouncing around from everyone inside laughing and telling stories. My granddaughter and a daughter’s boyfriend were with us and they were all making up stories that began, “Once upon a time there was a little girl who….” Then they’d tell a story where my granddaughter (who was about eight at the time) was the main character–usually something that happened in a movie.

      My daughter’s boyfriend (they’ve been married for about ten years now) had just learned to swim that summer, and I think he was enjoying the float trip and swimming in the river more than anyone.

      On the other hand, there was that one time when we went on a float trip when it was about 110°, and everyone griped that they couldn’t sleep far into the night. But it is quite an experience to be on the water in a raft when it’s 110°-ish, and you are well supplied with beer–which seem to affect you a lot like acid when it’s that hot.

  8. John K June 27, 2022 at 9:46 am #

    I doubt the Supreme Court’s recent actions have anything to do with the moral/constitutional issues surrounding abortion. More like their decision is just one more distraction in a sea of distractions, one more wedge driven into the population to divide us even more. It’s the bread-and-butter of totalitarian states. SCOTUS had half a century to overturn Roe v. Wade, and they chose NOW? How convenient.

    But I agree with the bulk of JHK’s piece today. In the future that’s welling up in front of us, we’ll have to row and not just wade.

    • Night Owl June 27, 2022 at 9:53 am #

      The timing is covenient, but I really don’t see the connection. The cultists love Roe vs. Wade.

      They also reaffirmed gun rights, and both decisions here are in line with the United States’ traditional value frame work: Federalism and the right to defend oneself from tyranny with a firearm.

      • Walter B June 27, 2022 at 10:05 am #

        I think that John K has a point. Dopey Jos and his army of evil have been trying to provoke the conservative right into violence in every way possible so that they can justify an all-out assault and round up of them and their weapons, IMHO.

        Finally realizing that conservative means not really prone to violence, they have shifted their prodding to the radical left, a group clearly willing to utilize assault as a means to an end. Removing their holy grail of R v W has a great possibility to turning many of them into blood thirsty berserkers who will not stop at merely aborting the unborn but will choose to terminate all those who have pissed on their parade.

        • Anthea June 27, 2022 at 10:56 am #

          I’m afraid the only way they’ll get the Left to serious violence is the customary way: they will have to pay them, and the only takers will be the radical Left, which is made up of people who are such extreme losers as to have no future. The vast, vast majority of Leftist are just a bunch of government employees/retirees, people sucking off the tit of quasi-government employment (government-subsidized stuff), and people on welfare of some kind.

          The real Leftist voting block is made up of mostly very comfortable people who are on the governmen payroll: think pink-pussy-hatted female government clerical workers in DC. They are not exactly street-fighting material, and you couldn’t make them into street-fighting material even with extensive training. Nor could you pay them enough, if you wanted them to do anything risky. It would be hard to find a more risk-averse bunch of people.

          If you want people who will actually fight, you have to hire mercenaries–and they don’t come cheap. Antifa druggies, nutjobs, and felons are not going to cut it.

          Conservatives will not resort to violence unless directly threatened. They don’t really care if BLM or Antifa want to burn down Portland or sack some high-end stores in Chicago. Only a direct, violent attack will provoke conservatives to violence, and only mercenaries could do it. You would think the government would know that. Maybe they do.

Question is, could a strong communist agitator get them to fight by convincing them their lives aren’t at risk. I wonder.

            Nevertheless most of the females are all mouth and the males mostly soy boys who would accidently shoot themselves with the simplest gun.

            Interesting discussion point. Might be a real issue very soon.

            Have you ever noticed that tit used in this way comes across as rather crude but if you say teat it becomes much more genteel?

            @ Q Shtick:

            I’m not sure I agree that teat is more genteel than tit. (When you have them yourself, you tend to view them in an entirely positive light, regardless of what you call them, so “tit” doesn’t seem vulgar at all.)

            But this is a worthwhile point to make, as I have occasionally noticed that there are a couple of posters on here who are unnecessarily vulgar. But at least it’s not like tickerforum, where it seems like the level of homo-eroticism should be an embarrassment.

            The PTB have probably been racking their brains for several years now, trying to think of a way to launch a violent attack on rural America in such a way that they can spin rural American’s self-defense as aggression against hapless Negroes who came out to BFE, en masse, for a picnic and a little bird-watching. (I personally don’t believe Negroes would come out to BFE en masse, even if they were starving. Drive or walk some gravel roads at night and imagine how you would feel if you were an urban black.)

            They need to come up with a false flag operation where they can make it appear that rural Americans are engaged in violent revolution against the government, or in violently attacking leftist urban centers, and thus justify imposing martial law.

            Another probably important point is that I don’t think the US government has the military manpower to impose martial law broadly, and they will soon have a hard time paying mercenaries in US dollars. Mercenaries are not very resposive to being paid in IOUs written out on toilet paper.

            Maybe severe food shortages would enable them to accuse rural people of withholding food and thereby starving the city folks. If the military were sent into farm country to confiscate food supplies, Holodomor-style, it could provoke violent resistance. Of course, the government did just this during the Great Depression, and if there was violent resistance to this, I never heard about it. I don’t think they’d dare try this today, except maybe in a single state (to test the strategy) where guns are illegal.

            Interestingly, nothing like this happened in Weimar Germany, and in fact the rural farming population made out like bandits. And justly so. (Producers deserve to be compensated for producing, and urban grifters deserve to be served the just compensation for grifting.) Farmers were paying off their mortgages with worthless money and trading food for solid assets and luxury items. But the Weimar situation and objectives were not the same as in Stalinist Russia–or the modern US.

            But I guess this is just a lot of rambling.

        While I love the gun decision, it is DEFINITELY not Federalism, with each state allowed to experiment with different laws. It will make it impossible for the Feds to force gun control on the whole country: that’s a good thing.

        The irony is that NY State also has a version of the 2nd Amendment in its constitution. It was just never enforced.

          I’m hoping it can lead to stopping the galloping globalism.
          I could hardly believe it when some people told me how much they liked the government’s decision on incandescent light bulbs, because the new ones were so much cheaper to use or something.

        The ruling left the decision of abortion up to the states, it didn’t outlaw it nationally. Even in conservative states, poll after poll indicated the people wanted safe abortions to be available with reasonable boundaries.

        There’s something grotesque about the demonstrations of pro-abortionists weeping and carrying on like drama queens. But this will be ginned up to get the women and youth vote out in November.

            In my opinion, the Supreme’s Roe v. Wade decision is not about abortion, it’s about state’s rights, and more specifically about “gun control”. It’s about ending the patchwork of conflicting laws and replacing it with one “rule of law” for everyone.

            It’s only 135 days until the election – not that our votes matter. Right-wing, anti-abortion politicians will be swept out of office by the coming Blue Tsunami and replaced with “common sense” legislators who will “re-imagine” state’s rights into the state’s right to do as the feds say.

            It’s about shaping the Narrative, and shaping the perceptions, particularly the emotional reactions, of the people.

            “You said you wanted an end to the confusing patchwork of state laws. You said you wanted to protect a woman’s Right to Choose. You said you wanted to be protected from your diseased neighbors. You said you wanted commonsense gun laws. We heard you! The 118th Congress – in cooperation with the bright new (WEF) stars in the state capitals – will be the most protective, progressive, and responsive in the history of our great and exceptional nation!”

        • Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 11:15 am #

          Those pro-abortionists aren’t organic, any more than the protestors in Ferguson.

          For some reason, many people believed that Roe v. Wade “allowed” abortion on demand.

          I think there is some confusion over just how long a trimester is.

          I have heard people speak of late term abortions, and this was before some states started passing their extreme laws, as something lazy women did, instead of the horrifying and life-threatening (to the mother as well) circumstance that it is.

          • SW June 27, 2022 at 11:38 am #

            Most abortions take place in the first trimester (3 1/2 months) when the mother realizes she’s missed periods. Why I’m for continuing legal & safe abortions in the first trimester is the reality that the pregnant woman knows if she’s been taking drugs, been drinking heavily & if she’s bringing a child into the world who won’t be cared for. Birth control ( including btw men using condoms) & the morning after pill need to be affordable & accessible to help prevent a woman from getting pregnant in the first place.

          • HowardBeale June 27, 2022 at 11:47 am #

            Beryl,
            What %age of abortions do you think are just “lazy women” using retroactive birth control?

          • Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 12:11 pm #

            Howard, I was referring to the imaginary women people think are waiting to month 8 or 9.

            I do know there are women who do not use any contraceptives, but what percentage of the women who get abortions they make up, I really don’t know.

            To me, that is a moot issue, because you either believe terminating a pregnancy at any stage is murder, or you don’t.

            Whether or not a woman took adequate precautions to avoid pregnancy, in the point of view of people who don’t even know her, is totally irrelevant to the question of whether she is killing a baby or not.

            I listened to a talk by an MD, who was also an evangelical Christian and firmly Right To Life.

            He explained that all forms of birth control except condoms are killing a baby. Do I agree with that? No, I do not. I don’t believe science agrees with that either.

            So, even if a woman takes what people decide are adequate precautions against pregnancy, she is still a killer in the eyes of much of the anti-abortion movement.

          • Blackbird June 27, 2022 at 12:27 pm #

            “… in the eyes of much of the anti-abortion movement.”

            I suspect that both the anti-abortion movement and the pro-abortion movement are comprised of very small slivers of the population (maybe 5% each?). Most people seem to have an opinion on the abortion issue that slides along the spectrum between “Hell yeah!” and “Hell no!”, but are not part of any movement. Of course it is only the tiny but extremely vocal minority who get heard. (Ok, they don’t really get “heard”, they play their part in the charade and the government takes the action they were going to take all along. Gotta get that Narrative in-place to make it all believable.)

          I think the conservative states may have learned their lesson, and will ban it outright. They’ve made it clear to us that they aren’t content with reasonable boundaries and that if we leave the door ever so slightly ajar, they’ll push and push and push.

          What has surprised me is what’s accompanied the demand for abortions – an apparent absolute hatred of infants. Someone on twitter lately referred to them as “mussels” (which also, they claim, cling to life). I’ve heard many others call them tumors. There is real, virulent hatred there, as if the idea of the existence of the unborn or infants in general inspired a level of hatred that seems demonic in its violence. There is a disease that’s infecting people, and it’s impossible not to notice the spiritual aspect of it.

          • SW June 27, 2022 at 9:00 pm #

            I agree with you to a certain extent. There’s a dehumanizing element to the prochoice rhetoric that has not a grain of compassion for anyone beyond the mother. Almost as if the woman is the innocent victim of an alien attack. It’s creepy but I’ve thought for a long time that America was not as caring for children as people in government & corporations pretend to be.

            They’re not protected from predatory pharmaceutical companies , just as one example. Children are given powerful psychoactive medications, no one is allowed to question ANY vaccine ever and there’s no universal health care to serve as some kind of safety net. Moloch comes in many disguises.

After telling me about all the people he worked with who regretted having children and wished they had aborted them, he continued to casually remark, “It’s like people HATE children.” This sentiment seemed to have his full approval.

            I responded that I had never known anyone who felt that way.

            This really is a demonic point of view: killing babies is a matter of the utmost importance.

      That may be a tad too cynical. The court’s composition changes slowly. It took 49 years to go from a liberal supermajority to a conservative supermajority of justices and there was a very long period of time in-between when there were simply too many Libs and squishy moderates on the SCOTUS to overturn Roe.

      The 2016 election changed everything. Trump placed 3 very conservative, anti-Roe justices on the court and finally got us to a large enough majority to make it happen.

      Persistence by pro-Life forces is why it happened in 2022 – not a sudden change of heart by the people who defended Roe for nearly half a century.

          Just to give you some inspiration, and perhaps incentive, you might look into Missouri. There are quite a few solidly German areas in Missouri, some of them in wine country, and usually with quite a large Amish population. I think many of the Amish still speak German. In the fall, there are Octoberfests galore all over the place in Missouri.

          You cannot imagine a kindlier, friendlier bunch of people than those you encounter in these old German settlements. I’m used to generally kindly, friendly people here in the exurbs, but they still surprise me.

          I don’t get down to those areas very often, though I sometimes go to the produce auction in Windsor or visit Morgan County Seeds. It’s a different world.

          Rainwater collection by private citizens is illegal in Colorado. All precipitation is to flow into the watershed which eventually feeds into the Colorado River. Used to be a household setting up rain barrel for garden use, etc, wasn’t prosecuted. Don’t know if that can still slide under the radar.

            What a bullshit law.

            I know of places along the New England coast which are remote, best use a 4×4 vehicle, where they collect rainwater. It’s the only source of potable water other than what one carries in from the mainland.

            The collection system starts on the roof and ends in a barrel or something similar located on the ground level.

            I looked at rainwater systems, and don’t consider it off the board. We haven’t had much rain here recently. Having some stored rainwater for the garden is a developing possibility.

      claims that water is not a human right and must be privatized and controlled by the elites.” – Night Owl

      =========

      Speaking of water (fresh, that is), I learned a few interesting facts on this recent Great Lakes cruise. Lake Superior contains more water than the combined water of the other four Great Lakes and “you can throw in a couple more Lake Eries.”

      An average drop of water that falls on Lake Superior is there for 191 years before it makes its way via gravity through the other lakes and eventually finds its way out the St Lawrence Seaway into the Atlantic Ocean. A tiny amount finds its way into the Mississippi River.

    Nowhere in the midst of screechy females exclaiming “My body, my choice” is any thought to working on making surgical abortion more uncommon. I have known young women who use it as a form of birth control. The science behind having babies is well established. I just wish men and woman would take more responsibility in controlling their procreation. Perhaps this is too much to ask where hormones and alcohol may be involved.

          I’m an Idaho native. More and more blue staters are coming. Typically, it seems, rich. I think a lot are ‘California Conservatives’ which tend to be liberal-lite.

          Idaho is still great. Imagine New York City is 700,000 people and the rest of the state is a couple two lane highways with a scattering of small towns. Idaho has a great vibe. Outside of a Boise suburban area called Meridian you never feel stressed, never feel unsafe. Everyone is engaged in outdoor recreation so everyone seems mentally healthy.

          I do worry it will change, but one thing we have going for us is it’s an extremely rugged state (it’s been called a geographical monstrosity) with limited roads. Very hard to navigate. Most of it is in a deep freeze during winter. People really only have a handful of areas where they can settle. So if we can keep the populations pretty isolated then I think it won’t be as bad as what’s happened to other states.

          I do, though, have this sneaking feeling that it’s going to become an enclave for the wealthy.

      The details of my life are quite inconsequential… My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we’d make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. Pretty typical stuff.

    The pivotal point of the Supreme Court decision is not much discussed: the right of privacy is a blank slate onto which any five justices can write whatever they think would be good social policy. That is the opposite of Constitutional reasoning, and of limited government in action.
    On the other hand, for the Court to say with a straight face that the political process is perfectly prepared to reflect the opinion of the local population is not a good faith argument in 2022. Suggesting that women keep their knees together or get an IUD will not bring down the country, but loss of faith in the voting process may.

        The right to life is a constitutional protection. It seems to me that you can’t advocate for killing the unborn, even if you don’t know for sure whether it is a human life.

        If I decide to go out in the back yard and do a little target practice, I could claim that I didn’t know that I was shooting in the direction of my neighbor’s house and didn’t know that his kids were playing outside. I thus didn’t “know” I was shooting a human being, but I’m pretty sure I would still be convicted of manslaughter. (They’d probably want to string me up if I shot the neighbor’s cow.)

        Destroying a human life–a baby–is a pretty serious matter. If you don’t know for sure whether it’s a human life, it seems to me that the wise thing to do would be to err on the side of caution.

  24. Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 10:59 am #

    As far as the court’s ruling, I haven’t read it yet. I have real concerns about the idea that this court gave the issue “back to the states”, but as I’ve said, I have not read the actual ruling.

    Many of the people rejoicing over overturning Roe versus Wade have obviously never read that decision either.

    As for the states which legalized abortion up to birth, theoretically, the only reason I can think of for that is the chaos it would cause, it would get people bashing women who waited too long to kill their babies.

    That there were no women clamoring for this “right” seems to escape many people.

    New York’s law, which I am most familiar with, was something hatched in the fevered brain of sex harasser Andrew Cuomo, and passed into law by a predominately male legislature.

    • MontanaMan June 27, 2022 at 11:30 am #

      I have read both. So did my wife and, she read them before, I did. And both of us are retired, and both of us are Born and raised in the very far NW Part of Montana.

      Residing 5 miles from the Canadian Border, 18 3/4 miles from the Idaho Stateline. In the YAAK Valley. Pop 341. Now we haven’t read Governor Cuomo’s “ legislative” ruling. Colorado’s ruling allows a woman to abort / kill / terminate / null / Void, call it what you will.

      Use any label you like. But it allows a woman to kill a fully developed, fully normal baby up until the ninth month. And I mean a full nine months. Even to where the baby could live on its own out of the womb. Until of course, the mother needed to feed it. This is flat out evil.

        I am not aware of any woman asking for Cuomo’s expansion of her “rights”, but maybe you know something I don’t?

        The women demonstrating against Roe v. Wade being overturned are demonstrating in favor of a ruling that only allowed for abortion on demand in the first trimester.

        The laws in Virginia and Colorado and New York have nothing to do with Roe v. Wade.

        • Jarek June 27, 2022 at 2:48 pm #

          So you’re fine with late stage abortion because women aren’t clamoring for it (according to you)?

            Where do you get that, Jarek? Where did I say I was okay with late stage abortion?

            What I am saying is that Roe v. Wade did NOT allow for abortion on demand beyond the first trimester, yet I still heard people blaming women who had late term abortions for waiting so long to kill their babies.

            And it is a fact that it was Andrew Cuomo who came up with the idea of his infanticide law.

          Found this above:

          Paula, New York’s law provided for abortion for any reason up to birth.

          For some reason, when I try to talk about late term abortion under Roe v. Wade, people keep trying to conflate it with what some rogue MALE governors did in two or three states.

          Late term abortions are only performed legally under extreme circumstances. I’d hate to be the mother faced with this trauma who also had to see all the bashing of women by the ignorant.

          Jarek: Which is it: For any reason or only under extreme circumstances?

          • Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 3:29 pm #

            Jarek, show me the late term abortion performed on demand under Roe v. Wade.

            Then show me the late term abortion performed under Cuomo’s law, that would not have been legal under Roe v. Wade.

          • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 3:58 pm #

            The thing about legal late term abortions is that the woman usually wanted the baby, but then finds out in the third trimester that it is not viable.
            It is tragic and it is traumatic. She has to make that decision and mourn the loss of her wanted child.
            And then to have to listen to the ignorant spouting off about her ”irresponsibility” would be unbearable.

    “That suggests not killing children.” Not “killing children” is certainly a great idea. However, it seems, historically, unconnected with a medical procedure known as “abortion” (AKA, women’s reproductive freedom”). How historically shallow to not notice that the Bible, a product of centuries of grappling ” with all the abstruse ambiguities, pretensions, and nebulosities about sex ” , and clearly part of Western canon, never mentions this well-known (Bronze Age) procedure… in fact, differentiates the financial obligations between a person causing Death and one causing a miscarriage. Non-intervention (spontaneous) “abortions” occur about 12 times in the life of a married woman sleeping with her husband. Who mourns these lost souls? Finally, the most committed abortion-scourges seem to constitute the loudest cheering section for US military operations that, definitely, DO “kill babies”. Recall Iraq? 1st week of :Shock & Awe” wiped out over 8,000 & continued for 46 days.

Single line responses like this one, with no developed thought, scattered throughout this forum like a drive-by shooter, armed with every “Logical Fallacy” from a college freshman’s “Intro to Logic” textbook, from “False Analogy” (Jarek’s above quote) to “Ad Hominem Attack” (his below comment to “Paula D”) The inevitablity of traffic accidents is not the point, Jarek, it’s simply a shallow evasion of the OBVIOUS truth that no one mourns or even acknowledges the dozen or so fetuses terminated by that Great Abortionist in the Sky, Jahway! The only way for your “analogy” (sic) to work would be if no one cared about the victims of accidents. But, again, one-liners are immune to developed, logical responses. Like a check, written by someone whose bank account is empty, it imitates substance but betrays illogic.

        • Jarek June 28, 2022 at 11:15 am #

          You put forth a Principle. I then used it with a different example to show it in another light.

          Anthea did the same above in a simpler and even more graphic way: There are lots of unwanted people around. Do you have the right to kill them?

          • rudyspeaks June 28, 2022 at 3:00 pm #

            Jarek, a Fallacious Analogy is a Fallacious Analogy. My unarguable observation that “no one mourns them [spontaneous abortions]” is not a “principle”…WTF would said “principle” be? [or, do you even know what a “principle” IS?] It’s an uncontested (at least by you!) Fact. You seem desperate to avoid the obvious point: That, if these were “babies being killed” (rather than dime-sized flakes of fetal tissue being removed), we would react to their deaths consistently. But we don’t, do we? Both you and Anthea continue to refer to fetal tissue as “babies”… Once more, there is no historical reference to fetal tissue being “babies”. You’re reinventing the language! The silly question, “Do we have the right to kill them [unwanted people]?” has no relevance since fetal tissue is not, and never has been in history (Here, Jarek, is where you’d offer a historical refutation…I’m waiting (giggle)) considered a “person”. You needn’t be a Christian to recognize the Bible’s deep roots in Western thought. But, since the Bible clearly recognizes the distinction between fetal tissue & People (see original post), equating them… essential to your point…leaves the ball in your court. Who does? [answer: no one]

    • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 4:00 pm #

      Indeed, even the Catholic church only decided abortion was a sin a couple of centuries ago.
      It’s not in the Bible, no matter what the thumpers think.

      • Jarek June 27, 2022 at 4:18 pm #

        “Thumpers” – what a creep. The Communist Manifesto is her bible!

      • Anthea June 28, 2022 at 1:51 pm #

        Most pro-lifers’ views are neither Bible-based nor based on the position of the Church. They are of the opinion that killing children, whether before or after birth, is monstrous.

        Speaking for myself, at least, I would hold this opinion regardless of what either the Bible or the Church had to say about it. I think I am probably typical in this regard.

        The feelings of normal people revolt at the idea of killing infants, in the same way and for the same reasons that they are horrified by the Ted Bundys of this world. Such acts are monstrous.

  28. docmartin June 27, 2022 at 11:14 am #

    The craziness will be blunted after the midterms. Then it will be Harris ( The Obama gang) vs the Republicans for two hellacious years. IMO, those two years will be an incendiary gridlock combined with an inflationary deep recession. I do believe the slow road back to stability in our country will begin at the end of January 2025. I have a little more faith in the majority of our citizens who will all start to chant “ ENOUGH!!” And act on it.

    • JohnAZ June 27, 2022 at 11:43 am #

      Doc Martin

      I believe you are an optimist. Here is why.

      The onslaught against American ideals is not fate, not an accident.

      It is the well aimed, deliberate program by the globalist elements to take over the USA economically instead of war. It is working, 50% of the people of the US have signed up to this agenda by voting for its domestic representative , the Biden Mob.

      I too feel little faith in an electorate that has been manipulated by this globalist group and have bought their line of despotic BS to continue their gimme dependence. If 2020 was legit, then the war is lost as permanent demographics have already condemned election results in the future.

      • thirdcoastlegend June 27, 2022 at 11:53 am #

        I don’t think things will play out in favor of the globalists.

        Their deindustrialization of the collective West will wind up making it simple for China and Russia to do as they please.

        • JohnAZ June 27, 2022 at 11:59 am #

          Little argument.

          However, their no. 1 target is nationalism, think Trump.

          IMHO, their next target is Russia.

          • TaxDonkey June 27, 2022 at 4:38 pm #

            They seem pretty obsessed with Russia at the moment. To make things worse, it looks like Putin is outmaneuvering them at every step. Not even sure Trump is relevant any more, given that 2024 is like a long long time from now.

        • Blackbird June 27, 2022 at 12:45 pm #

          China doing as it pleases, with friendly neighbor Russia along for the ride, is the globalist plan. (In my opinion.)

            That certainly could be what is happening.

            Personally, I have a really hard time envisioning a guy like Xi knuckling under to the WEF dolts over the long-term.

          • Oscar Gordon Hawkins June 27, 2022 at 1:24 pm #

            Maybe he will not knuckle under. Maybe they are in cahoots.

            Vladimir Putin is a WEF Young Global Leader who was speaking, not that long before his Ukraine SMO, of bringing about the NWO.

            Perhaps Putin and Xi are every bit as on-board as are Trudeau and Johnson.

          • Night Owl June 27, 2022 at 5:57 pm #

            OG,

            You should watch Putin’s most recent speech. He was excommunicated from WEF, and was never that active anyways.

            He is a nationalist and working to ensure that Russia is a top dog in the multi-polar world we now live in.

            He is an astute guy, and his recent speech contained levels of nuance and understanding that I don’t think would be possible by even the best of the globocap cockroaches running the US.

            There are no saints running any of these countries, but Putin is throwing a wrench in the works, and that’s a good thing.

          • TPTB-USA June 30, 2022 at 11:10 am #

            Hello Oscar Gordon Hawkins,

            I have a friend, who (based on some things he has said over the years) I have wondered if he is in on the WEF design, writes “Putin would make so much more money (for himself and his family) if he integrated the Russian economy with the rest of the world (like the Chinese have done)”.

            That which makes sense of all the nonsense, is that indeed Putin and Xi are very knowledgeable about the “Great Reset” agenda, and Putin has decided that the WEF agenda will not be in his nations best interest, and Xi is playing people like Kerry (who is selling out his nation) for the fools that they are.

            Right or wrong, my friend refuses to objectively consider that which is transpiring in Ukraine from Putin’s perspective.

            … considering the following:

          Yes, the “chink” in their armor. How can they make war on their own nations and peoples and expect to fight two powerful nations, now allied, who are not doing so?

          • TaxDonkey June 27, 2022 at 4:44 pm #

            Hey Jarek, I struggle understanding that as well. I’ve love to be a fly on the wall in Team Schwab’s meeting.

            Hey, let’s poke the bear really hard, maybe even get a nuclear war started. Ok, Lord Rothschild, that’s a wonderful idea, but let’s destroy our own civilization first and kill off as many citizens as possible.

        • Anthea June 28, 2022 at 2:17 pm #

          I am leaning towards expecting an attack on the US by either Russia or China in the next year or so. The US seems to be pulling out all the stops to provoke such an attack from Russia.

          Interestingly, it doesn’t seem to me that there is any advantage in a nuclear attack for either side, as there are valuable resources at stake. One option would be to target large cities with nuclear weapons, since they are pretty much worthless anyway, and take out smaller cities and military installations outside the cities with more conventional explosives. It doesn’t make any sense to destroy or lose access to good agricultural land, water, oil, coal, and other minineral resources–even if conquest were not the goal.

          I can’t see much motivation for China to attack; the whole place is for sale, anyway–and the Chinese are not much given to fits of pique.

    • Hereward the Woke June 27, 2022 at 2:04 pm #

      I can’t share your optimism, Doc. The next Potus – whoever he is – will face the same thing as Trump: opposition and stone walling at every level, and a shitstorm of false accusations. This one is only going to be sorted by force and separation. If at all.

      • Night Owl June 27, 2022 at 6:00 pm #

        Nothing can be solved by a president or any one individual. What will save the US, one way of the other, are individual states coming together.

        Federalism is about all that can stop this. The Open Society Foundations cockroaches know this too, which is why they have spent so much money on local elections.

  29. trolleybill June 27, 2022 at 11:32 am #

    America is still the world leader presently being maned by misfits. They fumbled and bumbled in their rush to get positioned at the top. Trump and the deplorables shook the shit out of leftist, liberals and the hardcore socialist as this new arrival of nationalism arrived on the scene. For decades the socialist left used creeping normalcy to infiltrate into education and propagandize our youth. This became their stock in trade with the guidebook of “Rules for Radicals” for instructions. They took over the media which college grads filled the ranks others went into politics. They infiltrated high tech from the start and had all the megaphones to flood the land with their views and goals. They must be dismayed that so many reject them which I believe made them insane

    Thanks for touching on morality and ethics today Jim. I hope the readers can listen in on the great interview you just did with Mattias Desmet to hear more about this.

    Religion is the basis of morality and ethics.

    People will turn back to religion sooner or later even though we get the opposite impression from news reports like the one from Germany today announcing that 360,000 Catholics left the Church in 2021.

    Over the weekend, churchgoers learned from the Apostle Paul:

    “You were called for freedom brothers. But do not use this freedom as an opportunity for the flesh; rather serve one another through love.”

    George Washington in his Farewell Address said:

    Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and to cherish them. A volume could not trace all their connections with private and public felicity. Let it simply be asked where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths, which are the instruments of investigation in courts of justice? And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.

      Based on what he’s reporting it appears the US is flying quite a bit of men and material into Europe.

    Abortion is a fringe issue of the extremes. The people in the middle don’t care. They don’t want 9 month old’s being pulled from a womb into a chipper but they do want sensible availability. Alas, the silent middle majority is ignored as usual.
    People claim this is a win for state’s rights. Well the states that are left will counter with full term availability in reaction to the no availability of the right. Not really a win for the right. Full term abortion may be a day’s drive away.
    I had conservative “thinkers” tell me that government does not get to determine abortion regulations. Well, then the state government does. Not really a win for civil libertarians.
    Everyone loses in these decisions cast as conservative wins. The court does not have the courage to confront litigation surrounding experimental vax mandates in both private and public sectors but they don’t mind making unwilling mothers’ lives inconvenienced.
    And that’s all this is. An inconvenience. A day trip for a full term. Maybe even paid for by employer or insurer.

    Meanwhile the swamp gets to pretend that they have assuaged some of the malaise. That people on the right can feel that the government can still work for them. Get their minds off the failed war against Russia, the imploding economy, the machinations of the technocrats.
    They think the pendulum is swinging their way.
    It sure looks that way right before it knocks you the fuck out

    • BackRowHeckler June 27, 2022 at 12:14 pm #

      You pretty much nail it with that post, Edge Lord Mofo. Especially the 1st paragraph.

      • justanotherguy June 27, 2022 at 11:27 pm #

        gotta say, the concerns are well stated. this whole thing has the feel of sleight of hand, with the added benefit that it gives the population one more thing to divide across yet another cross section.

        i’m sure they would like an angry population in an ugly free for all rather than focused on the great reset, which by the way, is still proceeding nicely.

        this fall we might be fight about food rationing. just turn off ebt for some real fun, but that will be the last thing that happens.

        the flyover patriots are consistently the target of the bulk of the mayhem for the next 6 months.

    • Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 12:24 pm #

      They are giving the death jab to very young children, and the anti-abortion movement doesn’t even notice.

      I think you are right about the middle. Edge.

      My personal observation is that people who are on the “abortion is murder” side are maybe half of those opposed to abortion, the others are more of a “yeah, sure I’m against it” bunch who seem more motivated by disapproval of the women who get pregnant than any reverence for life.

      Ronald Reagan is supposed to have said that an unborn child’s property rights are protected, but his right to life is not, but I never heard of a share of an estate going to someone who was never born, so there’s that.

      But look! Everybody is talking about abortion, and most of them don’t even know what they are talking about.

      • BackRowHeckler June 27, 2022 at 12:41 pm #

        I think the issue will settle down pretty quick, altho the Dems will be flogging the abortion meme right up until November. Like Mofo states above, “Abortion is a fringe issue of the extremes.”

        Unlike say ‘the George Floyd Uprising’, which in Portland lasted 250 consecutive days and nights, irrevocably destroyed the city, and set off a spree of mayhem, murder, and vandalism that persists until this day.

            Could be “gay marriage” which is no more a constitutional right than abortion.

          • Beryl of Oyl June 27, 2022 at 2:46 pm #

            Gays always had the same right to marriage that anyone else had.

            What they did not have the right to, IMO, was to have a societalal institution altered to suit them.

            If they had demanded gay marriage, that to me would be fine; but no. The goal was to destroy marriage and replace it with some sort of partnership.

          • Oscar Gordon Hawkins June 27, 2022 at 2:50 pm #

            Right. That makes more sense as I do not think there is much for SCOTUS to actually reverse vis-a-vis the 2020 Election.

            Reversing Gay Marriage would sure get the bricks flying.

          • justanotherguy June 27, 2022 at 11:21 pm #

            beryl – well put. i recited objection to changing the marriage contract after the fact. illegal in any other contract law matter. its a standard contract, engaged in by many people, and changed in substance without the agreement of all participants.

            in this case separate but equal could have worked just fine. every state legislature can and does tailor the particulars as it sees fit.

            could be effectively exactly the same as marriage, or have some differences that parties to either contract might have found attractive, while being unimportant to their counterparts in the unrelated but similar contract.

    – [ ] Hey Jim, Many years no comment, but amused to see you’re still at it, the blog that is. For other readers I use to comment here 15 years ago or so, but left when the blog seemed to get overrun with racist comments, something Jim privately told me was “letting off steam” for those posters. In those days Jim was mostly obsessed with “the end of oil”, which of course, he was sure was imminent, and would reduce a few “survivors” to living in grass huts and learning to make flint pointed weaponry. I believe it was then almost universal among the numerous “geological scientists” on the board that oil doom would fall no later than 2012. Kinda like the Mayan calendar thing I guess. Anyway I see you are casting your net a lot wider these days and scooping up quite a load of doomers, knuckleheads and outright weirdos…you’re more popular! Of course, as was the case back then I didn’t completely disagree with the thesis, we will run out of oil at some point to be sure, but when is a real difficult nut to crack. I won’t bother commenting on all the conspiracies, bazaar allegations, and outright nonsense you currently dabble in, who’s got the time. Of course, like all really successful bullshit, there is an element of truth mixed into the overall thesis, we are living through difficult times, which could get a lot worse. I’m no fool I have emergency supplies. But you’re not helping Jim, you’re just making a lot of people anxious about a lot of shit they can’t do anything about, or making them believe there really “in the know”, not like those stupid normies. It’s a shame, you’re a good writer, (if a bit polemic), I loved the “Geography of Nowhere”, but unfortunately you’ve gone nowhere but down since.

      You can’t stay in the middle of the road if you have to turn or the road ends. You have to choose. You don’t know what’s right except what the media tells you.

        “You can choose a ready guide
        In some celestial voice
        If you choose not to decide
        You still have made a choice

        You can choose from phantom fears
        And kindness that can kill
        I will choose a path that’s clear
        I will choose free will”

        Invictus
        BY WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY
        Out of the night that covers me,
        Black as the pit from pole to pole,
        I thank whatever gods may be
        For my unconquerable soul.

        In the fell clutch of circumstance
        I have not winced nor cried aloud.
        Under the bludgeonings of chance
        My head is bloody, but unbowed.

        Beyond this place of wrath and tears
        Looms but the Horror of the shade,
        And yet the menace of the years
        Finds and shall find me unafraid.

        It matters not how strait the gate,
        How charged with punishments the scroll,
        I am the master of my fate,
        I am the captain of my soul.

        Jarek: Some day the Horror, the Horror will be changed into the Weight of Glory if you have bourn it well.

      middleroad, Your above performance is beyond sad here, and so representative of a widely-available strain of self-satisfied vacuous bullying that I’m prompted to risk what will likely be a “little spit in the wind level of efficacy” response here. I encourage you to take this personally middleroad, and what I mean by that is take it in in conjunction with the exercise of a bit of self-reflexivity, asking yourself “in what ways and degrees am I (that means you in this case) a part of the problem?” You may ask yourself–probably not, but hey, I said I would risk a LITTLE spit here (as we’ll see, it’s important to read carefully)–ask yourself why might I recommend self-reflexivity. Well, it’s one of the rarest (and perhaps most valuable) markers of adulthood, especially now when (in so many discrete arenas too!) the question of what to do when there are no adults in the room arises almost daily.

      Let’s minimize the wasted-time risk and rough this out–no need to polish or otherwise overwork this–we’ve seen the type that occupies the other end of this discussion many times. First, about 10 direct references (although one is implied) to yourself here! Quite a lot about YOU middleroad in a mere 11-odd sentences that presume to pass judgment regarding serious issues of the day and decades of serious writing, writing very apparently supported by extensive research and encompassing voluminous amounts of detail. And YOU are amused! WE are not. YOU won’t bother commenting; Ho ho sir–some gratuitous advice here: kindly keep silent! YOU the judge (“It’s a shame…you’ve gone nowhere but down”). Oh middleroad, one suspects either ignorance or laughable comic failure on your part at this point. One might be tempted to bet a tidy sum that you are not familiar with, just for example, the now-clearly prophetic and substantial analyses found in Mr. Kunstler’s The Long Emergency or Too Much Magic. No time for technical language here: middleroad, please take some time, get in the slow lane and think for a bit. We in fact have some very serious drivers here.

      We’ve gone lightly here — no need to gently parse your spilling information shared with you in confidence–and that in regard to such an inflammatory subject. That, let alone your condescending stink reference to Mr. Kunstler as “still [being] at it”: it’s classic asshole, Sir. Please see to it.

      • middleroad June 28, 2022 at 11:17 am #

        No need to worry about me trolling your group, don’t have the time or interest. My post was to Jim himself whom I’ve had a couple passing exchanges with back in the day. As I mentioned before I believe there are certainly elements of truth to the thesis. My argument, if I have one, is the assurance everyone had 15-17 years ago (and now) that disaster was imminent. It’s always what you don’t see coming that gets you! Cheers and peace out.

    • Anthea June 29, 2022 at 8:35 am #

      @ middleroad:

      Sounds like you are the kind of person who prefers to ignore objective reality if it makes them uncomforable. I suppose you normally drive around in your car with the oil light and check engine light on, the tank on fumes, the radiator overheating, and the brake pads grating against the rotors. And if one of your passengers expresses alarm, you accuse them of being a Nervous Nellie who is trying to make you “anxious about a lot of shit” you can’t do anything about.

      Jim is addressing people who take note of such things and seek solutions or work-arounds.

      But you state that you are “comfortable with uncertainty.” When Jim points out that there is steam billowing out from under the hood, you think, “What could it mean? I don’t know for sure, so I will assume all is well and keep driving.” This approach will certainly lead to some serious discomfort, such as finding yourself stranded on the freeway in an inoperable pile of junk. Other discomforts will ensue.

      You will do the world a favor by not offering your advice.

      • Redneck Liberal June 29, 2022 at 9:24 pm #

        “Sounds like you are the kind of person who prefers to ignore objective reality if it makes them uncomforable.

        This is interesting, in particular, the bizarrely overwrought analogy.

        From this perspective (that is, not the CTNJ perspective), it appears that you guys (the CTNJs) can’t operate WITHOUT finding the next crazy, dumb and weird “thing about which to get anxious”.

        You all seem to find a brand new anxiety generator each week to add to the huge panoply of anxieties you already carry. Good stuff and highly amusing.

        • Anthea June 30, 2022 at 12:55 am #

          Well, I see that you are far above concerning yourself with life-and-death matters.

    • Redneck Liberal June 29, 2022 at 9:10 pm #

      “But you’re not helping Jim, you’re just making a lot of people anxious about a lot of shit they can’t do anything about, or making them believe there really “in the know”, not like those stupid normies.

      I will posit that Jim is not ‘making a lot of people anxious”. These people are already anxious, and all Jim is doing is the semi-weekly red-meat ration (for the Patreon hits). I’d not even be surprised if we were to learn that he doesn’t believe all the bullshit he plays to.

      • Anthea June 30, 2022 at 8:42 am #

        Some people become concerned by things like unaffordable rent, unaffordable gas prices, and very high inflation rates–all of which are expected to go even higher. These things mean that many people will be homeless, afoot, and starving, even if your own situation is fairly secure. Some people are concerned by the immense amount of drug abuse and the resulting thousands of overdose deaths. Some people are worried about high crime. Some people don’t like to see sick people murdered by hospitals or babies murdered before birth.

        Some people are concerned by the possibility of nuclear war.

        These observations are a form of “situational awareness”–a habit of people who are prudent and exercise foresight and preparedness to the best of their abilities. They offer a guide to making wise life choices.

        Some of those who are most interested in these matters are investors, so you often see the greatest interest and concern expressed on investment blogs. They seek to protect their 401Ks and other investment vehicles from the turmoil in the stock market. They may have rental properties. People who don’t have much (or anything) in the way of assets still have a need to protect themselves from societal decay and currency debasement. And they may have dear ones to protect: children or the elderly.

        If your strategy is to remain oblivious to such matters, you do so at your own peril. But you are obviously not a person anyone would turn to for advice. You are not a grown-up. You are not a person upon whom the responsibility for the security, protection, and care of others rests. You are not a person who must make difficult financial decisions to that end.

        This lack of responsibility–or refusal accept it–makes you a trivial and inconsequential person, or what is referred to in common parlance as a dipshit.

        This appears to be a religious or quasi-religious view that you have embraced–and to which you actually have the nerve to try to convert others. You would have a lot better luck if you would proselytize somewhere else. Fools are kind of thin on the ground around here.

    “The support system for all that is going, going, gone and in the ensuing flux all that rousing self-actualization starts to look more like Thomas Hobbes’s war of all against all, a savage and pre-human state of nature. As this occurs, all human beings have to fall back on are modes of conduct that include a moral and ethical dimension, which is to say, what is right and what is wrong, not just what is allowed at a given moment.”

    ……

    “As that scaffold of techno-industrial comfort and safety disintegrates… we will likely have to settle for being human again, and in the best way, not the worst way. That includes a certain reverence for our nature and for each other. That suggests not killing children.”

    ……

    “A ruling Party of Chaos is doing absolutely everything to disorder our lives and there really is no generous interpretation for its motives. Everything it touches breaks, wilts, withers, splinters, rots, poisons, and infects the body politic, driving it deeper into derangement. It doesn’t even pretend to make sense because that would require making distinctions between what is true and what’s not true. We follow-the-science into pure evil.”

    ……

    “What awaits is the abandoned scaffold of the family and the community as opposed to the brute hierarchies of mere lonely, forsaken persons under the leviathan state and the behemoth corporation, which have produced mainly new kinds of cruelties”

    ……

    “Out of all that suffering will eventually come a new respect for human life and reconstructed relations between men and women, with all the abstruse ambiguities, pretensions, and nebulosities about sex put aside for some future age of decadence. It won’t require further agonizing reappraisals by any high courts to figure it out. Children are the consequence of sex. Children are required to carry on the human project.”

    AMEN! This is one of Kunstler’s best articles to date. Such gems all throughout it….

    Here’s my alternate, possibly simplistic take on the recent spate of conservative SCOTUS rulings.

    Maybe it’s simple human psychology and we’ve got 5 or so Justices tired of being publicly threatened by the Executive and various other Marxist groups.

    Maybe they’re doing this to show the Marxists their decisions can’t be influenced so easily.

    Barnhardt’s friend, Nurse Claire

    I have a few problems with this clip that recently aired on “Tucker Carlson Tonight”.

    First, the suggestion that a fetus feels pain from 15-20 weeks is demonstrably false. In 1984, former abortionist Dr. Bernard Nathanson, then a pro-life convert, sought to show the world the brutality of abortion by airing actual video footage of a 12-week, ultrasound-guided abortion. In the video (which can be viewed here), the unborn child is clearly seen opening its mouth to scream, and recoiling from the abortionist’s instruments. My graduate school training in anesthesia taught that pain pathways as well as EEG brain waves were present in children as early as 9 weeks’ gestation, and probably sooner. So I take issue with the physician on Carlson’s show – his technical info isn’t exactly accurate.

    And second: what is the point of this interview? Is the point to assert that murder is okay as long as it’s painless for the victim? Because if that’s the argument being made here, then I assure you the pro-aborts will push back with early-term “pain free” abortions using things like RU486, otherwise known as the abortion pill. And there are already abortionists out there touting their digoxin abortion methods, which involve injecting an unborn child with high-dose digoxin to stop the heart. The baby dies before the dismembering begins. These are sold to mothers as “painless”.

    Out of charity, I will assume Tucker is airing this interview to offer some perspective on the brutality of abortion and the humanity of the unborn, who have been so thoroughly dehumanized for the last several decades. Most militant pro-abortionists do not care about the pain felt by unborn children. But, I do think there is a younger generation out there who truly are so intellectually lazy that they haven’t realized exactly what an abortion entails. Or they think of the fetus as some magical sleeping baby that neither perceives nor feels anything until it takes its first breath. So I’ll give Tucker credit for trying to start that conversation.

    However, as pro-lifers, we must be vigilant not to fall into these arguments. Arbitrary conditions on abortion, such as “is the fetus feeling pain” or “is there a heartbeat” are logical fallacies – avoid these traps. In a conversation I had with Dr. Beep earlier today, he pointed out that sedating people to death is also “painless”, just like two-to-the-back-of-the-head of your political enemy. These atrocities are still murder regardless of how pain-free they may be for the victims.

    And as for the heartbeat argument: life begins at conception. Full stop. The heartbeat laws enacted in several states are nice, but they do not acknowledge nor do they prevent the earliest abortions that are happening every day: abortifacient contraceptive pills, IUDs, and the “morning after” pill.

    Let us celebrate the overturning of Roe while still being mindful that a tremendous uphill battle faces us. Our culture is a thoroughly pagan one, so we must articulate carefully that abortion is always wrong no matter the method or circumstances.

      Who cares if they can feel pain, amirite? They need to be “hygienic” (which is a lie, just like the ”fetuses can feel pain at 9 weeks. No, the nervous system is not developed enough at that point).

        Agree. Circumcision is a terror initiation to start hardening little boys into killers. Can’t get them started too soon!

        But you don’t deny that fetuses do feel the agony, at least later. Is your stony heart moved? Not in the slightest! What happened to you?

        • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 4:04 pm #

          I do agree that fetuses can feel pain after their nervous system is developed to that degree.

      Tucker’s description is nothing compared to the brutality of a late term abortion.

      Needles in, suck out the brain. Step 1.

      Crush the skull to allow easy extraction. Step 2

      Extraction. Step 3.

      I cannot see how anyone can say they are a Christian or even believe in God and participate in such a gruesome procedure.

      As folks approach old age, they review their lives. I sure would hate to have butchery of a viable fetus in my past because I might have been inconvenienced. I wonder why women who have done this deed thirty years ago are not interviewed. I wonder what percentage are now pro-life?

      • JohnAZ June 27, 2022 at 7:44 pm #

        Looking at the polls, the main thing that has swayed the public against abortion is the late term butchery.

    “Out of all that suffering will eventually come a new respect for human life and reconstructed relations between men and women, with all the abstruse ambiguities, pretensions, and nebulosities about sex put aside for some future age of decadence.”

    Humanity will have reached a final stage of become de-human-ed when it collectively views the taking of another human life as a God-given right to be protected and codified into Civil Law for all Eternity.

    ‘I choose to be free to live my life and be free! And if I have to take a life to do that… so be it!’

    Look, the whole abortion issue is complicated in some ways… and simple in others.

    Women have a very complicated life. The first problem: They have to deal with men. And… This Just In: Men are NOT easy to please and get along with. Particularly when it involved their Johnsons.

    Men are quite preoccupied with their Johnsons. Like… day and night preoccupied with them.

    And where do most Johnsons end up? Inside of a woman.

    And men DO NOT like to wear… ‘That Thing’. Why, it’s clumsy and doesn’t feel good! And I want to feel good!

    And so… to please men… Women accept these Johnsons often without using protection. And surprise, surprise… little new lives appear! Wonder how that happens?

    For very many couples this is a great blessing to be cherished. To many other couples… this is a dark, dark day which must be dealt with and quickly. And how do many of them deal with this either… miracle or curse? They choose to end that young life THEY CREATED.

    This is where the whole abortion issue gets simple. It’s not just the Woman. Women have not yet found out a way to get themselves pregnant without Outside Help. And usually, that help is with a Man and his very eager Johnson.

    So, it’s not just My Body My Choice. It is THREE LIVES, ALWAYS involved here. It’s a package deal. You can’t just separate out one of the Lives over the others.

    And if ‘My Body My Choice’ is a valid argument… then how about also for the new young life that was created? Do They have the same right to say… MY (NEW YOUNG) BODY AND MY CHOICE (TO LIVE OR NOT)?

    No, sadly. They get NO SAY.

    And that is where the central argument for abortion falls apart. If ONE of the Three Lives in this equation gets a say in this… then THE OTHER TWO need to have an EQUAL say. And this does not happen when young life is extinguished with the ease of pulling a tooth out.

    Yes, Women have a rough road in all this. They have to deal with Men and Their Johnsons. And Men like what They like. And so… things happen.

    So the final decision is a stark one: Preserving Life… or ending it.

    Men have to step up and be way more responsible when using their Johnsons. And Woman need to take all steps they can for themselves not to create Life when They have no intention of honoring that life.

    But if Life is created… it is still Life.

    And in the end… we are either a People who honor and respect Life… or we don’t.

    And if we don’t value Life… then that is hardly a World worth our time living in. Because that sets a precedent for other things to be codified that do not value… and even erase… Life.

    Bottom Line: We all need to step up and do a way better job of dealing with this matter of human intimacy and its severe consequences than we have been doing. And not just only after new life has been created… but WAY BEFORE that.

    Personal freedom and choice is a God-given right of Life. But so is… Life Itself. We should NEVER allow ourselves to be in situations where these two God-given rights to come into conflict. They never have to if we would be smart enough to never place ourselves into that terrible dilemma.

      Well said in general. An equal say? So she can’t get an abortion is the man says he wants it? Or she can make him pay for the next twenty years if he doesn’t want it?

      Take possession and/or dispose of your condoms immediately. Don’t leave them lying around. Sperm jacking is a real thing. Women have gotten pregnant from used condoms by malign intent.

      “Men are NOT easy to please” – but women are?

        “An equal say? So she can’t get an abortion is the man says he wants it? Or she can make him pay for the next twenty years if he doesn’t want it?”

        Both of them have a moral duty to make sure it NEVER GETS THAT FAR. And if it does, They need to find a much better solution than the erasure of a young life. Because the erasure of SOME innocent life opens the door wide open to the erasure of LOTS of innocent lives. Jabs, anyone? Wars for ‘Democracy!?’ And other reasons that the Dark Powers can conjure for ‘Our Good’.

        “Men are NOT easy to please” – but women are?

        We know the answer to that one. But here’s the thing. It is a physiological fact that most women do not get To The Promised Land through the use of the man’s Johnson alone. The path to glory is… another area for most women.

        So the question becomes… why are women allowing the Johnsons in? Because the man demands it. And when the man gets to The Promised Land… that’s when the young innocent life enters the World of the Living.

        So the man made a choice. The woman made her choice. And the innocent life… who had NO SAY in all this… now has entered the same World of the Living as the man and woman who made their choices.

        The bottom line is that people must do a much better job of managing their intimate relations. THAT is where the real problem has always been.

        The reason that abortion became the National Civil War that it has become is because men and women have done a terrible job of managing their ‘business’.

        • Jarek June 27, 2022 at 3:32 pm #

          Can’t disagree with that. As Adams said, our Constitution was meant for a moral people and no other.

          Of course the problem as ever is mission gallop. Paula tends to think all life is unworthy of life. A Handmaid of the Extinction Rebellion sans red robe.

          In other words and apart from Paula, what of mothers who wish late abortion because their baby is obviously going to be very defective.

          Only a very rich society can afford to take care of people like this I’m afraid. And it could easily sink individuals or couples.

            “Paula tends to think all life is unworthy of life. A Handmaid of the Extinction Rebellion sans red robe.”

            The fact is that while the ongoing conversations about Life and who has rights to say about who should live or perish are critically important within the Human Drama… outside forces are going to have a big say over this whole Life matter and partially make the whole discussion void.

            Our energy supplies are running out. Our food supplies are dwindling. High prices are making medical care unaffordable. Children are eating unhealthy foods during the development stage of their bodies. So are adults as they get older. The once healthy desire to have and raise stable families is becoming something out-of-date and just another reflection of…(drumroll please)… ‘White Privilege’! Aka… BAD! BAD!

            We have a toxic and poisonous political and social atmosphere in our World that saps our spirit. We think more now in terms of just making it to next week instead of having hope about the future and big dreams to aspire to.

            And let’s not forget the ongoing program of human erasure being conducted by Deep Dark Globalist Forces to rid the Planet of all the billions of ‘Unworthy’.

            In short… the resolution about the preservation of Life is taking a back seat to the ongoing Erasure of Life on Planet Earth.

            We will still be debating about a ‘Woman’s Right to Choose’ while we slowly starve to death and suffer ill health from toxic injections and lack of decent medical care.

            Sort of like arguing about seating arrangements on the Titanic while everyone goes down into the drink.

            All Life is sacred. Or, none of it is.

            @ Jarek:

            “what of mothers who wish late abortion because their baby is obviously going to be very defective?”

            The Amish have a very high incidence of children born with Downs Syndrome and cystic fibrosis (plus several others). They manage, and have even ebraced the idea that a Downs Syndrome child is a blessing. These and the other birth defects common to the Amish/Mennonites are genetic and result from inbreeding.

            My view is that you don’t kill someone due to a defect or illness.

          • Jarek June 29, 2022 at 11:52 am #

            Ant: Many of them have become prosperous and with their many children, have the labor force to take care of such people.

            It will not be so with us for a long time, and maybe no longer with them either.

            Some of the retarded can do some work, and of course a family farm is the perfect place for that.

          • Anthea June 30, 2022 at 9:22 am #

            @ Jarek:

            A couple of years ago a young black woman asked me if I would show her how to make soap. She came out to my house in BFE a couple of times, and we had some interesting conversations. One of them was about the Amish. She had apparently seen a documentary on TV that disparaged them for declining modern conveniences, had decided that were a bad lot, and was repeating what she saw on TV.

            My reply: “Hey, they’re prosperous and I’m not.”

            It’s worthwhile to consider WHY they are prosperous–and this is despite using labor methods that are not highly efficient. it’s not just because they have many children. The main reason is that most of us here in the modern “English” world have around 90% of our labor products stolen from us. The mechanisms for this are well known, so I don’t suppose I need to elaborate on that.

            You can prosper on a low income if you’re not paying for rent, utilities, car payments, gas, medical insurance, cable TV, cell phones, a vast array of other consumer goods, and college for the kids. It saves you quite a bundle if your children are born at home, attended by the Amish midwife. A lot of people among us “English” have to think pretty hard about having kids, just because of the hospital bill.

            It helps too if you produce most of your own food, so that food inflation affects you very little or not at all. And if you’re running a little Amish store/grocery business, you are getting whatever stuff you can’t produce at wholesale prices. And if you’re Amish and buy from the Amish store, you’re getting bargain prices, as these stores don’t have the overhead expenses of our supermarkets here in the “English” world.

            Heck, you can even afford kids!

          He was just on a cruise – Paula

          ==========

          I have various snippets to report concerning this cruise. I will relate them in small doses as they come to mind.

          First: this was a cruise of the Great Lakes on a Viking ship called the Octantis. We cruised through lakes Michigan, Huron, and Superior. The ship, launched just this year, is a marvel of design built with an amazing degree of fit and finish. It is also a scientific lab on water. I won’t attempt to define what that means but perhaps you can Google info about the ship.

          For 8 days we were treated and attended to better than any king, pharaoh, or potentate. Such attention is actually embarrassing.

      After the pride must come the shame. One can only wonder what that will look like, as these young miscreants grow up and realize in middle age what a mess they’ve created. Boy, won’t they have fun! I wonder if the inevitable conservative backlash will be equally as destructive?

      • Oscar Gordon Hawkins June 27, 2022 at 3:02 pm #

        You are correct. Pride is 1 of the 7 Deadly Sins.

        Being Prideful of men fellating men and of men fornicating men is Biblical sick. Soddom- and Gamorah-type wicked sick.

    Abortifacient A drug, herb, chemical or other substance that dilates the cervix and causes the uterus to contract, resulting in spontaneous termination of pregnancy.
    Fringe obstetrics A potentially toxic herb—e.g., pennyroyal, black cohosh, blue cohosh, parsley, and tansy, which evoke spontaneous abortion
    Pharmacology An agent that induces the expulsion of an embryo or fetus, e.g., prostaglandin E1 analogues—misoprostol, gemeprost

    As I understand it, the Pill is an abortifacient or an agent of abortion, albeit at a very early stage and thus a mercy compared to what we’ve been talking about.

    Another excellent article! Thank you, James.

    I would absolutely love to see a return to some sort of sanity, difficult as the circumstances will be, throughout humanity & especially western civ. Everything now is so superficial and fakey, and nauseatingly stupid.

    I hope PornHub explodes into the ether so kids won’t have access to that horrible life-ruining stuff. I hope that the transgender agenda falls on its ass, and stops peer-pressuring kids to believe they’re in the wrong body. I hope the ‘influencer’ industry tanks and stupid condescending know-nothings in glitter stop indoctrinating kids into narcissism and shallowness and the promise of fame, fortune and megamansions.

    Children are the future, and this society is treating them horribly. That needs to change.

          I remember when known sex harasser Matt Lauer kept trying to make a big, big deal out of Russia’s “anti-gay proselytizing” at the Sochi Olympics.

          He brought in a gay athlete or two to talk about how this was such a threat to their well being or something.

          Putin said then that it was aimed at protecting children. So he knew what was what, way back then. I personally did not know at that time, just how bad the LBTQ movement had it in for the kids.

          • MaryQueen June 27, 2022 at 6:06 pm #

            I have not seen that gays make up any more of the convicted child molesters than straight people, statistics-wise.

            However, the transgender-identified men? The percentage is VERY high.

            I’ve known a lot of gay men, some of them quite well, and I have never seen any indication that they are inclined to pedophilia. I’ve seen some indications of an indifference to whether the object of their interest is over or under 18–as is often the case with heterosexual men. There is often a cluster of young men hanging around outside gay bars. The reason they are not inside the gay bar is because they are under 21, and the reason they are hanging around is prostitution. Are some of them under 18? Probably. Do some gay men (typically older ones) have a special interest in the younger guys? Yes–just as some older hetrosexual men have a preference for much younger women.

            That said, I think the real problem is that the gay rights movement, like the feminist movement and the civil rights movement, has long been co-opted by government (or genuinely Satanic) entities. These movements were not necessarily bad things in themselves, as long as they stuck to seeking and promoting fairness. Fairness is a good thing.

            But due to being co-opted, these movements now promote attitudes, values, and policies that are NOT good things. I won’t bother to list these, since they are right up in our faces every day.

            The main result of these movements allowing themselves to be co-opted is that they have long operated to disadvantage the very people they claim to be “liberating.”

            The main people who were liberated by feminism were men, who were liberated from all social, sexual, financial, and moral responsibility.

            We can see the results of the civil rights movement on the well-being of blacks–whose lives were better in 1955 than they are now.

            Gays too are going to pay a steep price for effectively allying themselves with those who attack children, family, and traditional culture in general, and with the promoters of various kinds of rather more serious degeneracy. They have already paid a pretty steep price for leading hypersexualized lifestyles, in that almost all the gay men I knew in my youth have been dead for years. Most didn’t make it past their thirties. Of the two gay men I knew “back in the day” who are still living, one has been in a monogamous relationship for about 30 years, and the other has been celibate for about the same length of time.

    Part of the degradation of society is the abortion issue, on both sides.
    I grew up in California where, thanks to Ronald Reagan, abortion was legal before it was legal nation-wide (and also legal before I ever needed it).
    So when I got pregnant I knew I had a choice. I never chose to have an abortion, but the comfort of knowing I could, in the panic of finding out I was pregnant, forced me into a deliberate choice to have the baby.
    Therefore, I felt emotionally obligated to do the best mothering I could, as I saw it.
    I think that the Millennials are a product of that mindset, a bunch of spoiled and coddled children turning out to be narcissists. Ooops.
    But then the backlash started, led by the same Reagan who signed the California law. The Southern Baptists who had a pro-choice platform in the 70s jumped onboard.
    And now you have had a couple of generations of girls and women convinced by the bullshit you can peruse above, who firmly believe that when they get pregnant their ONLY responsibility to that embryo is to carry it to term. And so they do. And then they drop that little baby off with whoever will take it for hours, days or weeks, grandma, auntie, cousin, day care, whatever.
    So now you have a bunch of anti-social, unnurtured young humans running around trying to get adult attention with pronouns, purple hair and violence.
    I don’t see any improvement.
    I also don’t see any need to produce the 8 billionth human on a dying planet, especially in a dysfunctional society about to violently disintegrate.
    We aren’t going to magically turn into stable responsible citizens looking out for each other and protecting and nurturing the youngest among us.
    Not gonna happen. Best to not bring your own child into the mess.

            Feminism taken to the extreme may be a cancer, but feminism as a tool for empowering women to make choices that might not be acceptable under prevailing social “norms” is a good thing.

            The concept of the career woman, for example, simply works for many women. Others want children and to be a homemaker — some do both; some do neither.

            That’s life.

          • Jarek June 28, 2022 at 11:29 am #

            Night: That’s also radical individualism, as if Society doesn’t influence people and that these women made up their own minds.

            Bullshit. The media raves about the glories of Career, so women go that way – to the detriment of our civilization for the most part, and of course, of their very selves.

            There would be a rational way to do both, but no one is interested. It would have to be a societal change. Women marrying young and then going back to Work once the kids were in school, etc. Instead we have women going crazy as their clock ticks down and trying to get married and have kids after their looks and metabolism have already started to decline.

            So? So many of the smartest have no children at all. Certainly not as many as the unwed dummies. Thus do we decline.

          • Night Owl June 28, 2022 at 12:34 pm #

            Jarek,

            I agree about the push to get women out of the house from the string-pullers. I don’t view that as positive at all.

            The problem is, some women really don’t want to be mothers, and some want it but also want to do more with their lives.

            I am married to one who may have prioritized the career a bit too much at the start, but she herself found her way to a happy medium.

            I don’t think there is an easy solution, unfortunately.

      That is not my experience.

      My first kid and his wife have 2 boys (ages 10 and 9). I would describe them as helicopter parents. They literally have never left them overnight with anyone, not even either set of grandparents. I don’t approve of this but keep my mouth shut.

      They do activities as a family every weekend. There doesn’t seem to be anything these boys haven’t been exposed to… lessons of every sort, from judo to musical instruments, etc. The mother was elected PTA President and also works as a substitute teacher where the boys go to school.

      Add to that, what my friend the HS teacher said. Parents got super busy and their kids became accessories or second thoughts, and not their main focus. They started dropping off the kids and writing them off ’til 6 at night or whatever, forcing teachers to start having to parent the kids.

      Now some really creepy groomers are in there, and the kids trust teachers more than their own parents, who are too busy to talk to them about adolescence, etc.

      Talk about a recipe for disaster.

            I might add, now what women have to deal with just for trying to discuss women’s issues in public places is threats from MRAs, TRAs, and Antifa. Mostly men. The police don’t protect us either, as they would groups of precious men who claim they are more oppressed than we are. Laughable.

            But that’s OK with the women-haters in this forum. They seem to delight in women being silenced at any cost.

            Thankfully, their Handmaid’s Tale utopia is not going to come easily.

            And FWIW, seeing the unbridled misogyny up here just makes me want to work harder to fight it. So I do.

      @ Paula D:

      I don’t think too many people view their child as “8 billionth human on a dying planet.” The idea that this is “a dying planet” is mostly NWO propaganda anyway. Perhaps there is an imbalance in the way of life-forms, and it does seem like there is an excessive number of people on some parts of the planet. Some other parts of the planet have too few. Around here, we have a superabundance of trees, a surplus of rabbits–and the grass is too damn high. The cabbage worms have been dealt with. No amount of diligence seems to affect the raccoon problem, and it will soon be the season for Japanese beetles.

      There has probably always been an imbalance of some sort among the life-forms on earth, just as the climate has always changed. The rabbits and squirrels are not throwing up their little paws in horror and declining to have babies because someone in DC or on TV told them the planet was dying. And when you come right down to it, you don’t really know any more about it than they do.

      • Paula D June 30, 2022 at 7:18 pm #

        I grew up in LA and watched the hills be covered with houses, the freeways be built only to be jammed with traffic, the orange groves bulldozed, the farmfields “developed”. I sat in traffic jams and stood in long lines for hours. I saw the sprawl spread all the way up to Santa Barbara and down to San Diego.
        Getthefuckouttahere with your “you don’t know what you’re talking about” bullshit.
        You obviously don’t know what you are talking about.
        The oceans are dying from over-fishing, acidification and plastic particles. The forests are razed, the water aquifers are being emptied, the topsoil is almost gone, the fields are poisoned with herbicides and pesticides and still the humans spread out over the desert demanding that the authorities provided them with more water, deep fried chicken and air conditioning.
        Multiple species have gone extinct while humans breed like rabbits and talk about how very, very special they are.
        I am not impressed.

    Re: “most people will not read Justice Alito’s carefully crafted arguments about what the constitution says or doesn’t say about abortion,”

    Anyone who thinks Justice Alito’s arguments will be carefully crafted has never read one of his decisions. I read a bunch of them when he was nominated by the USSC. I was appalled. I wouldn’t accept that kind of logic from a school child.

    Having said that, Roe vs. Wade was built on shaky ground at best. It will be interesting to see what the future brings on this subject. But you can bet it won’t be “the government should keep its big nose out of people’s private lives.”

    The happy news is Jim is that Traditionalism will win, eventually. It must– by the irrevocable and irresistible nature of human beings– which is the one constant through out all of of human history.

    There is no “progression” towards something else. That is a complete and utter fantasy. It’s a lie.

    We may live in families composed of mothers and fathers. Or we may have families composed of mothers and fathers, with grandparents, and with uncles and aunts with their children nearby.

    But what is the commonality there? mothers and fathers. Families in close proximity to each other.

    In other words, blood related family units. This is how humans have lived for hundreds of thousands of years. This isn’t changing anytime soon. Even though the Party of Chaos and “progressives” would love to tell you otherwise. Again, it’s pure fantasy.

    We aren’t “transcending” anything. Hate to break that to anyone out there.

            Drunks and addicts are big on forgiving, that is, for people to forgive them no matter what they do.

            Substance abuse is like the golden ticket! No responsibility ever. Because, you can’t help it.

            Then when your circumstances collapse because you cause it you STILL blame others.

            What a racket.

          • Anthea July 1, 2022 at 5:46 am #

            One of my friends was in a long-term (gay) relationship with an alcoholic and attended Al-Anon meetings for about ten years. He was a group leader for many of those years. I got to hear a lot about alcoholism and the way it affects the SO and other family members–and how to deal with the alcoholic.

            One of the main characteristics of an alcoholic is to refuse to take responsibility for their own actions and to continually blame others for their actions and try to force others to take responsbility for them. Their whole life strategy is to force co-dependency on everyone else, but usually especially on their SO. All their fuck-ups are someone else’s fault and fixing them is someone else’s responsibility.

            What Al-Anon does is to teach the co-dependent SO and other family members is to refuse to accept the co-dependency role and constantly force the alcoholic to bear the consequences of his own actions. They really drill it into you that YOU are not responsible for the actions of others, and THEY are responsible for themselves.

            Another thing that Al-Anon teaches people is that, even if the alcoholic gives up drinking, the “alcoholic personality” persists for a LONG time afterward. They will continue to evade responsibility and still try to blame others (mainly the SO) and try to force them to accept responsibility for the alcoholic’s actions.

            You see something similar in people who have kicked opiates after many years of addiction, but what you see in these cases is someone who has lost maybe 10-15 years of their life–who is, say, 32 years old and is no more mature than a 12-year-old. They may even be a pretty nice 12-year-old. But all the lessons, and the maturity and life experience that should have been gained during the years of addiction is missing. It’s like they have awakened from suspended animation.

    The plusses and minuses of the cruise experience.

    Getting to the ship and home again via airplane before and after the cruise was a nightmare. The cruise itself was a dream.

    We flew from Newark Aprt to Milwaukee where the cruise began and then returned home in 2 steps from Thunder Bay, ON to Toronto and from there to Newark. Actually, that’s not true. There was a fuck-up which caused us to have to buy our own tickets and fly to LaGuardia. We have not yet begun the process of recovering our airfare and other expenses from Viking. I don’t expect any problem since they seem to fall all over themselves to please the customer. We shall see.

    If YOU are planning a vacation for this summer it is my advice to avoid air travel. Use a car to get to where you’re going. Each airport we were in (Newark, Milwaukee, Thunder Bay, LaGuardia) was an unbelievable hive of people. You would typically be advised to arrive at the airport 2 hours before flight time but that would be cutting it too close… be there 3 hours ahead.

    You know how they set up these cattle chute mazes? I swear the first such maze wound around for at least 500 yards. You stand and inch forward, rolling your wheeled luggage endlessly. You have to be adept with electronic terminals and devices. I am not. You have to be able to hear and understand airline employees wearing masks. I had to almost beg them to lower their masks so I could read lips. Even then I would have been lost without my wife to get their endless instructions.

    • Q. Shtik June 27, 2022 at 3:37 pm #

      Each airport we were in (Newark, Milwaukee, Thunder Bay, LaGuardia) – Q.

      ===========

      Oops, I left out Toronto. How could I forget Toronto? It was the worst!
      The Canadians are still obsessed with Covid prevention. They simply will. not. give. up. on the masks.

      Actually, on the final leg (Toronto to LaGuardia) I was amazed and relieved when the gay steward, Jose, announced over the PA syst that masks were now optional but they highly recommended wearing the masks for the safety of all concerned (more on Jose later). I immediately ripped off the mask which pulled the hearing aids from my ears, etc. etc.

      • Q. Shtik June 27, 2022 at 4:12 pm #

        Toronto? It was the worst! – Q.

        ===========

        What with my arthritic knees and hips all this standing and inching forward through endless cattle chutes was taking a toll on me. Advice from family members (my wife was texting them every detail [“Q. just farted and thinks he may have to take a dump… we hope we find a men’s room in time.”] and they were responding) was “for God’s sake get him a wheel chair!!”

        And so, here is my best advice for avoiding the endless hassles of the airports. And I am dead serious. (It’s like the Jews who have to have kosher food. They ALWAYS get served first and I hear tell that their food is superior to that of the goyim.) (I hope our host doesn’t get pissed at me for saying this.) Arrange in advance to be met by someone to push you in a wheel chair. You get special treatment and get to jump all kinds of lines. I am not bullshitting you. Even if you are healthy as a horse and capable of running a marathon, what you do is buy yourself a cheap cane and carry it with you at all times and use it. If you are with a spouse always fall way behind them as you walk. And when seated struggle mightily to rise from your chair using arm muscles. Facial grimacing is an added plus. For YOU it might all be an act but for me it was no act.

        The searching of your person and your carry-on luggage and backpacks is beyond anything I recall from yesteryear… even from the days when fanatics were blowing up planes every other day.

        First off, there are no children on these Viking cruises.

        My wife was reading to me from some Viking promotional literature and after describing what Viking IS there was a section on ‘what Viking IS NOT.’

        1. They do not take passengers under age 18.
        2. There are no casinos/gambling.
        3. No art auctions
        4. No formal nights
        5. No ‘other’ stuff that older folks are largely not interested in (I forget the whole list).

          it sounds like a point by point marketing pitch directly opposite carnival – we had plenty of laughs at how sleazy those rides are.

          it was ok when the kids were young, when we just focused on family fun. can’t imagine doing carnival for just my bride and i.

          i suppose without all the gotcha extras, the cost is commensurately higher… but probably worth it.

      • Anthea July 1, 2022 at 6:09 am #

        The reason for the “women and children first” rule is because men are of comparatively low biological value (as reproductive units). This is the hand that nature has dealt you.

        Griping about this is analogous to women griping that they’re the ones who must be pregnant and bear children, or griping that they are entitled to the male prerogative of being sexually promiscuous. Women would be far wiser to accept the fact that they are not men, and they’re not going to be men. This is the hand that biology has dealt them.

        And, in your case, you must accept the fact that you are not a woman and you’re not going to be a woman, however much you may wish to be treated with the same preference when the ship is sinking.

  52. Ed Haskell June 27, 2022 at 3:40 pm #

    Mr Kunsler,

    It appears the Supreme Court is returning to the defense of the Constitution as written instead of how some wish it was written. States Rights figure prominently in the Constitution and hopefully States Rights will again move to the fore. That fragmentation of national power is an effective way to keep globalists and tyrants at bay.

    Economically, the Fed blew it and the Keynesian economy may suffer a life threatening malaise. Along with the probable dark downturn of the global economy might come the question of why the existence of the Fed seemingly contradicts an important aspect of States Rights in Article I, Section 10, Clause 1: “No State shall…make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts;…”.

    Cheers

    • Paula D June 27, 2022 at 4:12 pm #

      I don’t see where in the Constitution is says that the Supreme Court gets to judge whether a duly passed law is Constitutional.
      As I understand it, that was a power grab by the first Supreme Court, under Justice Marshall and was denounced by Thomas Jefferson at the time.
      But now we all just accept it as tradition.
      And the “No state can issue its own currency” was actually an attack on state’s rights. Before that Pennsylvania had issued its own currency and created a robust market economy.

      Anyone with even a partial clue knows the wheels are coming off. So, for elite players, it’s smart and prudent to game the system in an attempt to possibly, just maybe maintain power and control.

      And as we’ve seen so far, by front running each major issue (cv, vax, oil, voting) they might actually be able to maintain their positions in the blue regions.

      But what of the red zones? This is where Paula D’s comment raises some interesting questions. One, will the people continue to allow the judiciary to presume to preside over constitutional judgment?

      Second, currency, trade and regulations. Third, artificial social programs that are nothing more than a creation of comfortable surplus.

      Fourth, what of state militias and the building resistance to joining the federal armies?

      Fifth, could the rump blue states resist a takeover by the reds, to be once again reunited under a strengthened constitutional agreement? (For example, repal of 17th among other things.)

        Finally, dump the carcasses at sea and begin the process of scrubbing, decontaminating, and rebuilding our now empty coastal cities to restore them to their former glory, starting with San Francisco which, once upon a time in my childhood, was actually a fun and safe family vacation destination.

        Dang. Now they are on to me. Gotta go back to the laboratory and cook up another fiendishly clever master plan while twirling my Snidely Whiplash mustache between my thumb and index fingers.

    That’s exactly what SCOTUS is supposed to do. They are judges. They judge whether laws and court verdicts are constitutional. They are not legislators, they do not pass laws. The 1973 Roe v Wade decision was a ruling, not a law. The legality of abortion on a federal level is neither codified law nor implied in the US constitution. Congress never made abortion legal on a federal level. Don’t get mad at SCOTUS, get angry at Congress

    Just got back from a trip to Massachusetts. Went out to Providence Town at the end of cape cod. Lots of gay couples holding hands, no big deal but I was rather alarmed by the number of faggots in dental floss thongs with erect cock and balls on they’re way to the sex shops on the main street. Not to mention the amount of art gallerias with pornographic paintings hanging in their windows.

    The Mass state tourism website says Providence town is a family friendly destination. I’ve lived in New Orleans, even been to a few gay bars with gay friends, never saw such degeneracy in all my life.

    • justanotherguy June 27, 2022 at 5:48 pm #

      sounds like some pretty severe viagra abuse there.

      but there will be some families that want to show just how vibrant and open minded they are, and there will be children acting out in 15 years from the mind mangling they are sure to experience…

      I hope Jim doesn’t notice I’m going to correct you. The place to which you refer is Provincetown.

      But yeah, the ubiquity and outrageousness from the gays is becoming more and more. I am even offended by something as inconsequential as a “man-bun.” There’s a certain commercial on TV with a man-bun guy. Surely you’ve seen it. I just shake my head slowly and ask ‘what is the message?’ or is this now deemed cool in some way?

        I have a hard time believing there are no gay couples who just want a normal family life and don’t like being associated with this extreme degeneracy.

        I was also at a Starbucks in Boston where I saw Polyamerious (correct my spelling if you must) listed next to the drink menu as a “Gender to be Celebrated”. Seems like the queer agenda doesn’t completely hate straight men after all!

          I’m sure there are. On our initial flight from Newark to Milwaukee where the cruise ship started from there was this couple (2 women with a 2 year old child) in the seats in front of me. I spent most of the ride observing this little family and surmising their dynamic.

          It was pretty obvious to me that one of these two women was the actual biological mother of the child and played the role of a regular hetero female. Typical female type hairdo, some delicate dangly gold earrings hanging from pierced ears. The child looked like her, had similar hair color, and was being raised as a ‘girl.’

          It took me awhile to conclude that the other adult was in fact a female who was role-playing as a male… short hair, zero makeup and zero jewelry except for a wedding band on the left hand ring finger. ‘She’ wore what I call a disguiso sweat shirt to hide any hint of breasts that may have resided beneath. At one point I caught this person’s attention, pointed at the child and mouthed the question “how old?” And ‘she’ responded “two years.”

          Throughout the flight these two mommies played with the child using a whole bagful of toys and took turns holding and loving up the child. If anything the male role player was even more obsessed with the child than the woman I perceived to be the bio mother.

          I wondered WHO was the bio father that inseminated the bio mother and how did this all go down. My brain buzzed as I tried to imagine how these various participants handled such an unorthodox mating.

          Post-flight, when we got to the baggage area, THERE was the little family now joined by two much older adults who I assumed were the bio-grandparents. They held the child and, maybe it was just my imagination, but their exuberance seemed less than it might have been if their daughter had been married to an actual male.

      P Town has been a Gay stronghold since way back in the 1940s when a pretty strong art and theater community established itself out there mostly from Greenwich Village. In the 70s Provincetown still hosted an active fishing fleet and you’d see grizzled Portugese fishermen doing shots at a bar standing next to some young dude dressed in leather, including leather assless chaps. You might say P Town resembled Key West in that way. Last time I was out there I was looking up author John Dos Passo’s house where he lived in the 30s and 40s a few years ago. My mother’s family came from Cape Cod and the Gay vibe in town seemed much more pronounced than I remember it as a kid in the 70s & 80s. LBGQT pretty much defines the town now.

      The English Puritans who landed there in 1620 and who founded Plymouth must be rolling in their graves. (Altho, the Basques, Portugese, Spanish and French were on the Cape long before the English, as early as the 1480s)

      This was the level of degeneracy in Old Weimar that ushered in the dude with the Charlie Chaplin mustache to shut all of that crap down.

      Not necessarily advocating that – just observing that when the bile rises to the top of the public’s throat, they are liable to send in the jackboots to utterly rub-out the perps.

      That sort of thing tends to happen when people get fed up beyond all tolerance while the feckless political class sits around on their fat, overfed posteriors fiddling while Rome burns.

    The truth can bring down a world of hurt when it is not wanted. Like a thief or a liar caught in the act they invariably double down, often with violence.

    That is and will be our persecution. We will have killed the jabbed. We will be accused of horrors against the non binary sentients. We have dared to speak for the damned in the womb, in the hospital, and in the prison of their own fears.

    It is and will be our fault they cut off their breasts and genitalia, killed themselves, their children, born and unborn. For our faults they sprayed down on us, spliced our very being, mutated our crops and dessicated them with round up, so we could eat them. So.

    We are why black lives matter and none other except maybe transexual lives.

    I have not had tv or internet in my place for awhile. There’s a heat dome up here now, so at night I go outside to pray or meditate till the stars have moved a quadrant, and there is calm.

    I think I heard Klaus, a very long interview blaring from an open window last night.

    (more on Jose later). – Q.

    ===========

    Because I was one of these elite wheelchair people, my wife and I were assigned 2 seats right behind the last of 9 first class passengers. These 2 seats had more legroom than any other seats on the plane, seriously. I could barely reach the back of the seat in front of me by extending my legs to the max.

    There were 3 rows of first class seats. One seat on the left, then the aisle, then 2 seats on the right. I looked on the emergency instruction card in the seatback to see what kind of aircraft it was but I have forgotten and failed to write it down. I DID notice that at the bottom of the card it said “Final assembly of this aircraft was performed in Canada.” On the aircraft from Newark to Milwaukee the card said “Final assembly of this aircraft was performed in Brazil.” I wasn’t sure if this was meant to make the passenger feel better or worse. And it raised all sorts of questions about where initial assembly took place, lets say in the U.S., and how did the craft get to Brazil as an unfinished unit… the shit that concerns me, I could go on and on.

    But lets get back to Jose the steward. I think I possess superior ‘gaydar.’ I think Jose was chosen to work the high paying first class customers because of his overall classy demeanor and slightly effeminate facial and body movements. He was neat as a pin with close-cropped hair on the sides and back of his head and only slightly longer on top. The last thing these attendants do before takeoff is to make sure all overhead compartments are securely closed. The compartments for the riff-raff economy class folks are the typical kind you are aware of, namely they open from the bottom and lift upward. But, in the first class area (for unknown reasons) the overhead doors slid from right to left and left to right. So I watched Jose slide these doors with his slender fingers (he could have been a concert pianist as a side gig) and the gaydar sirens went off in my ears audible to only myself. I nudged my wife whose nose was buried in her cell phone, as always, and I glanced in Jose’s direction and whispered “gay.” As always my wife replied angrily, “SO WHAT??”

    As Jose served his special clientele he had a way of pursing his lips over each customer and when called upon to announce something over the PA system he had a higher voice than most males of 6′ as I judged him to be.

    I would bet that Jose lives in an exquisitely decorated apartment somewhere with a “partner.”

    In each state you hold a vote to choose one of these two positions:

    a) abortion with NO child support.

    b) child support with NO abortion.

    Plumbing the depths of cynicism, AKA seeking whatever remains of the truth, I stumbled upon this theory by one Emerald Robinson:

    (www dot emeralddb3.substack.com/p/durham-played-you-for-a-fool)

    “In other words: the Durham investigation was simply the clean-up phase of Spygate disguised as an investigation of Spygate. This was perfectly obvious at the time — and it remains obvious today. It doesn’t take two years for the DOJ to prosecute its targets. You know that — right? Just ask Roger Stone. When the DOJ really wants to prosecute you, it’s easy to tell because two dozen special agents in SWAT gear appear at your door in a pre-dawn raid with a CNN camera crew already stationed across the street.

    And that’s just for the crime of “lying to Congress.”

    Did you really think that John Durham need two years to bring serious indictments against the Spygate plotters? Did you really fail to notice that his low-level indictments came just as the statue of limitations expired? Or that Durham brought minimal charges that were always going to bring minimal sentences?

    That’s because John Durham was the cleaner.

    Don’t tell me that you actually believed that one guy at the DOJ was going to investigate how the DOJ and the FBI and the CIA were trying to sabotage President Trump all by himself? All the majors players in Spygate walked away while Durham sent you on a wild goose chase hunting for commas in charging documents — and that wild goose chase was so successful in conservative media that you’re still talking about two low-level guys getting charged with process crimes four years after Durham supposedly started his investigation.

    Durham kept you high on the hopium for four years. That was his real job.

    Durham’s job was to run out the clock during the Trump Administration — he was there to protect Obama and Biden and the national security state from any accountability. Think about it. Why did you trust Durham at all? You trusted John Durham because you were told to trust him by Bill Barr — and the same people who told you to trust Barr were the ones who told you to trust Rod Rosenstein. Before that, you were told that Matt Whitaker was riding to the rescue. Do you even remember being told to trust John Huber? And who can forget trusting Jeff Sessions?

    That’s what happens when you reduce a criminal conspiracy to overthrow the sitting President into a single charge of lying to the FBI. The elephant in the room transforms into a fly, and then the fly gets swatted.”

    I am convinced insanity by gaslighting IS the goal. When you doubt everything they can do anything.

      Hello Mary, thank you. I always read Mr K’s page, he’s a national treasure, and often many of the comments too.
      I don’t have much to contribute.
      I’m dead tired after farming and selling the product of my labors. I always worked, and will die working. I love what I do, too.
      I’ve developed a discipline to write what little I have to say for the papers, the small Suwannee local one and the bigger Gainesville Sun when I come up with something worth saying (seldom). There’s no $ in it unless you’re a JHK and I’m not, but it’s good to share what little I know, make noise for the environment and sustainable farming and against development and even, sometimes, with a bit of craft, insert a bit about my politics: antivax, Luddite, in despair of “progress”, in despair of the trans and Ukranian flags and virtue signaling… y’know… despair of Babylon, the Leviathan, and the destruction of Gaia.
      Anyway, thanks for thinking of me. My stuff is at avocadogrove dot WordPress if you want to read it. I say thank you to the many intelligent writers here that make me ponder and think, which is better than speaking as the conversation then happens inside your own noggin. Well, not always, but reading is leisure, writing, work.
      Cheers, and keep gardening. Good luck. Read Margaret Atwood, esp the Oryx and Crake trilogy, for a vision, nightmarish but likely, of where things are going. And yet, Carpe Diem, eat, drink & be merry.

      • MaryQueen June 28, 2022 at 10:30 pm #

        Rulo!! Thanks for responding. I have read your blog before, I love your writing. You shouldn’t compare yourself to JHK, he’s a different genre. You remind me more of a Juan Rulfo, and I think we discussed that some months ago here once. I enjoy your writing so much!

        I am also gardening again this year but I’m not so obsessive about it, what do you know, it takes one year to become more relaxed, and understand the difference in seasons, etc. – hahaha! Last year I’d freak if I saw one bug on any of my plants.

        Luddite, here, too, that’s for sure. I have been a Margaret Atwood fan for years (many don’t know about her short stories). Thanks for the other suggestions. I have to get back to reading more. I am on Dostoyevsky right now (Brothers Karamozov). And drawing, and taking voice lessons, and I have a remote job I love that’s meaningful, so all good. I do envy that you have your own land though – you just do not know what a big deal that is to those of us who haven’t managed to do that!

        The destruction of Gaia also worries me. Right now? Esp. the useless, thoughtless addition of billions of germy masks in the ocean. But as I like to say, Mother Nature bats last.

        Thanks for stopping by, Rulo.

    ” Abortion is a fringe issue of the extremes. The people in the middle don’t care. They don’t want 9 month old’s being pulled from a womb into a chipper but they do want sensible availability. Alas, the silent middle majority is ignored as usual.
    People claim this is a win for state’s rights. Well the states that are left will counter with full term availability in reaction to the no availability of the right. Not really a win for the right. Full term abortion may be a day’s drive away.
    I had conservative “thinkers” tell me that government does not get to determine abortion regulations. Well, then the state government does. Not really a win for civil libertarians.
    Everyone loses in these decisions cast as conservative wins. ”

    ” ” Abortion is a fringe issue of the extremes. ”

    Or , perhaps , issues of Federalism and States Rights do not fit easily into convenient political categories , stereotypes , and pigeon – holing .

    ” People claim this is a win for state’s rights. Well the states that are left will counter with full term availability in reaction to the no availability of the right. Not really a win for the right. Full term abortion may be a day’s drive away. ”

    My best guess is this is correct , and that is what will happen.

    …………..

    So why and what , then , are folks calling themselves ;Liberals , Leftists , or Libertarian , bitching about ??

    Could it be that many of these people , regardless of what they call themselves ,

    find the idea of people , ” voting with their feet ” as abhorrent as any Fascist or heartless reactionary ?

    Conversely , in my experience most of the people who typically claim they are for States Rights ,

    are ONLY for States Rights WHEN they think States Rights will SERVE THEIR OWN , PERSONAL , POLITICAL PROGRAM.

    But when it does not serve their ends ?

    Indeed , when it even apparently works against their ends ?

    Then , typically , what you see is someone arguing against States Rights , when the same person was , two minutes ago , arguing for States Rights.

    To my mind , it may be that the fault lies not with the idea of States Rights ,.

    The fault may lie instead in individual greed and vanity , lust for power , in partisanship , in the notion, ” My Party ; right or wrong ! ”

    ” I had conservative “thinkers” tell me that government does not get to determine abortion regulations. Well, then the state government does. Not really a win for civil libertarians. ”

    Again , maybe the folks claiming to be Civil Libertarians are not Civil Libertarians ?

    Prior to the American Civil War , if the average Joe Black person did not like the deal they were given in Alabama , they could take the Underground Railroad to New Hampshire for a different deal.

    Though , granted , doing so would be easier said , than done .

    And is a different deal necessarily a better deal ?

    Well , unfortunately , that question is always infinitely debatable.

    Let’s go ahead and assume that both deals basically suck ;

    Would you rather have TWO lousy deals , or JUST ONE lousy deal ?

    I reckon that just one lousy deal is going to benefit just one person , and that one person would not be me.

    Monopolists , dictators , and totalitarians seem to ALWAYS , CONSISTENTLY , vote for the one deal option.

    Maybe that’s a fucking clue ?

    After the American Civil War , what is the average Joe Black person to do if they don’t like their now one option , swim to France ?

    If the Underground Railroad was a lousy deal , swimming to France is no deal at all. It’s pie in the sky.

    ” Everyone loses in these decisions cast as conservative wins. ”

    Is that a criticism , or a compliment ?

    It seems to me that it stands to reason that if the greatest measure of liberty is going to be given to the greatest number ,

    everyone will have to make concessions they don’t like.

    So , yes , everyone loses.

    In contrast ,
    Monopolists , dictators , and totalitarians always prefer the zero – sum game.

    As, likewise , secret , would – be monopolists , dictators , and totalitarians always prefer the zero – sum game.

    Like Roman Generals of old , they torch everything , kill or enslave everyone , create a desert , and call it , ” Peace ” .

      All we hear and see: another win for the right, another win for conservatives, a coach can make a big show about praying (who cares, if he was a Muslim soccer coach the parents in WA would be bringing their own rugs to games) , average people (not just scared billionaires and celebrities) can have access to the protection of concealed carry.
      Are these wins? Regaining lost ground is not advancing. Just reveals how many “rights” have been lost. But all three are fringe:
      Abortion, guns, prayer as speech.
      The court did not conquer any new ground. They didn’t win anything. They just slowed the left’s roll.
      Again, what has the court done about mail in voting and lockdowns and free speech on the internet??
      Zilch, but fool you twice shame on..

      • KesaAnna June 27, 2022 at 11:30 pm #

        ” all three are fringe:
        Abortion, guns, prayer as speech. ”

        I think that depends on the context.

        At one time East Germany had the most liberal birth control policies in the West , whether NATO or Warsaw Pact.

        All that liberalism ; But still the Russians didn’t trust us , And the folks west of the border didn’t like us.

        Gun control was bedrock policy in East Germany , yet at the time , along with North / South Korea , East Germany was the most heavily militarized real estate on earth.

        I was ten years old when we left East Germany , and I’m 56 years old now . But there are a few strong and enduring memories.

        Like , I remember a group of teenage girls strolling down the street with AK – 47’s slung over their shoulders.

        No one seemed to think that was peculiar. It was normal.

        But then it was also normal to see a Russian tank parked on the high street , or an artillery battery bivouacked in a farmers field.

        American gun fanciers would at least have liked East Germany on that score.

        Not just rifles and pistols , but automatic weapons galore —- AND mortars , AND heavy artillery , AND tanks , AND RPG’s , etc , etc , etc.

        Gun control ?

        What can I say ? How to put it into words ?

        There was what was preached , which seemed to reflect nothing ,

        and then there was what you saw with your eyes every day , but which was never remarked on.

        Not remarked on by Communists of course , but not remarked on by Western supposed critics EITHER.

        Why East Germany endured 50 years , and why it collapsed when it did , whatever the answer , it certainly is NOT what I always hear.

        It was not a case that you had heavily armed thugs on one side , and good guys with bare hands on the other.

        You did have the militarized Stasi — but that was a grand total of one light regiment.

        You had the militarized border guards , that ads another four , though again light , regiments.

        And true enough , the primary recruiting criteria in the militarized Stasi and the militarized border guards was political reliability.

        If there was ANY question about your loyalty to the Socialist Unity Party , you could forget about a job in the Stasi or the border guards.

        The army , however , was ten full divisions , and two of those armored divisions.

        Roughly 80% of the East German Army at any given time was conscripts.

        Add to that the , ” Battle groups of the Working class ” , which , at least in numbers ( though that at least means cab drivers , waitresses , factory workers and plumbers WITH AK – 47’s IN THEIR HANDS ) was even bigger than the army.

        Add to that the FDJ — the teenage girls I referred to earlier — they aren’t just a Communist version of boy scouts and girl scouts , they are considered part of the army reserve , so they , likewise , are armed.

        Ok , maybe a 13 year old girl with an AK – 47 isn’t something you take seriously ? But 15 year old boys with AK – 47’s have been filling out the ranks of armies for centuries , whether you take them seriously or not..

        Are you getting any idea of what I’m driving at ?

        Sure , East Germany was a prison.

        Unfortunately , it was not at all the sort of prison that everyone describes.

        In this prison the inmates were armed with the same hardware as the guards , and the inmates of course grossly out – numbered the guards.

        For reasons like this , call me narrow – minded , but I usually don’t listen to much of anything folks say about East Germany .

        As , likewise , anything supposedly about the Catholic Church , my first reaction is hit the off button.

        And finally , I simply don’t watch American ” News ” anymore , because at least 90% of it is TOTAL bullshit.

        It’s spin this way , and spin that way , and spin , spin , spin.

        Getting back to gun control , and East Germany —

        I think East Germany demonstrated the truth of two premises ;

        — You do NOT have to disarm the general population to impose a dictatorship.

        Liberty or slavery are not finally a matter of tools , but a matter of the heart.

        You can arm the general population to the teeth , and if the average Joe sees dictatorship as just , and / or the average Joe wants slavery for his neighbor , you will have dictatorship anyway.

        — If the average Joe concludes their fundamental interests are threatened , no gun control law will stand in their way.

        They will go through it like tissue paper.

        Gun control laws will not stop drug mafias ,

        But gun control laws won’t stop soccer moms either.

        In America , it is always , ” gun rights ” .

        The language , to me , is telling .

        How so ?

        Why not , ” Knife rights ” ?

        or ” baseball bat rights ” , or ” bomb rights ” ?

        Neither the side supposedly defending a right , nor the side opposed to the idea of such a right ,

        really want to to talk about the fundamental issue which is SELF DEFENSE.

        Self defense is not a right.

        — but , also , self – defense is never , and never will be , subject to you , to me , to him , or to her.

        Self defense is not subject to opinion .

        Self defense is not subject to a vote.

        Self defense is not subject to power , except temporarily and illusory.

        Self defense is subject to mother nature.

        Man and his fancies can fuck off.

        Grrr , that’s just one item.

        But I have other things to do besides write books for free.

      • MaryQueen June 28, 2022 at 1:01 pm #

        DId they slow the left’s roll, though?

        Just spoke to an attorney I know who like me, was a lefty, but now is politically homeless.

        However, she is pro-choice, and lives in WI, where abortion is now banned. She said she had planned on voting straight Republican to weaken Jo Jo Magoo’s power in November, but now she has to rethink that, and possibly hold her nose and vote for a Dem or 2.

        So if anything, this is pushing more voters to the Dem’s side, which is actually crazy since they never intended to do anything to support choice. They just make a lot of racket that they do. They had 50 years to legislate this at the state level and never did it.

        • SoftStarLight June 28, 2022 at 1:11 pm #

          Then they deserve all the destruction the Dems will bring on them. And anyway, don’t you say all the time that voting doesn’t matter and the uniparty elites already control everything?

          • MaryQueen June 28, 2022 at 5:37 pm #

            I don’t think it matters – so I don’t vote.

            I’m sharing what an actual voter told me, in order to illustrate to the Republicans here that the Roe v Wade decision isn’t something that pushes people to the right.

            In fact, I also just saw a poll which showed that the majority of people – including Republicans/conservatives – don’t want abortion to be completely illegal, and want it available in some form.

            Like the vast majority.

          • SoftStarLight June 28, 2022 at 5:58 pm #

            I wasn’t aware anyone was thinking that the SC decision was going to push anyone to the right. In my mind the whole issue is one seemingly in which most peoples’ minds are already made up and they’ve already chosen their sides and place. Yes, it is true that a majority want availability to some level of abortion but a majority also wants limits. I also saw today that a Rasmussen poll found that a majority agree with the SC decision. So it is a mixed bag. The problem for the rabids is that they have essentially revealed the issue is not about abortion but rather about ritualistic infanticide.

        • SoftStarLight June 28, 2022 at 1:12 pm #

          Yes that is the appropriate distinction. Not a liberal but an actual true leftists. The difference is astronomically significant

        • Wizard of the Saddle June 29, 2022 at 1:56 pm #

          Democrats have moved so far to the extreme Left over the past 10 years that I think only Democrats of senior citizen age will defect to the GOP. Younger Dems seem to be “down” with all of the craziness and are largely a lost cause.

          Winning in November will mainly be about energizing and turning out registered Republicans and independents. No excuses. Everyone has to show up and vote on November 8th. Also, we need thousands of lawyers, poll watchers, and videographers to keep an eye on the expected flood of Democrat election fraud shenanigans.

    It is hopefully not lost on anyone with critical thinking skills that the party that considers itself the party of science and the party of Evolution and the party of Darwin is going to the mat for the two most biologically counterproductive behaviors possible – homosexuality which reduces your Darwinian fitness to zero (assuming you haven’t had kids during a straight lapse) and feticide (aka a woman’s right to choose) which overtly lowers your fitness by eliminating that chunk of your gametic dna from the future gene pool.
    As scientists they oughta know as E. O. Wilson said, that the organism is DNA’s way of making more DNA.

    • SoftStarLight June 28, 2022 at 3:28 am #

      Well, perhaps the true believers amongst them take the tenets of transhumanism, gene editing, etc very seriously. If you recall the creature in that movie The Thing you will remember that it gathered new DNA from all the people it absorbed, thus growing stronger and smarter. Could it be that this is the potential model for the party of Darwin. The strongest will survive?

    • MaryQueen June 28, 2022 at 1:02 pm #

      We need the homosexuals to keep our population numbers in check.

      We don’t, evolutionarily, however, need trans people. Which makes sense, as it’s a socially constructed delusion, not a sexual orientation.

      It really has no business being tacked onto the LGB.

      • SoftStarLight June 28, 2022 at 1:10 pm #

        From a procreative standpoint neither homosexuals or trans people are contributing to population growth presumably right. So in actuality from the technical standpoint there is really no distinction between the two groups in that view.

        • MaryQueen June 28, 2022 at 5:38 pm #

          Not really. Transgendered loons are having babies.

          Haven’t you seen the pregnant men?

          • SoftStarLight June 28, 2022 at 6:04 pm #

            True point. Though I do have to wonder how many pregnant men there really are. But then you know. Gay people can have children too. I would say there is a better chance that there are many more gay people, men and women, who have children than there are pregnant men. I didn’t understand the linking of how gay people are good for evolution or something but trans people aren’t. Either way. Most of them do not have children so they are not contributing to population growth obviously as much as heterosexuals. I just didn’t get the point unless you are just saying you like gay people but not trans people.

          • Paula D June 28, 2022 at 8:54 pm #

            There are NO pregnant men.
            There are women who take testosterone and have facial hair, but still have functioning female bodies.
            It is a tragedy that they reproduce. They usually have their breasts removed while still teenaged so they can’t even feed their babies except with formula.
            Most transwomen are heterosexual men and they frequently reproduce before they engage in their sexual fetish, (autogynephilia), in public.
            Rachel Levine, for instance, is the father of 3 children.
            Bruce Jenner had children also. Not sure how many.
            They get so far into their fantasy that they don’t give a fig about their wives or children.
            Sunning and brave, doncha know.

          • MaryQueen June 28, 2022 at 10:35 pm #

            I think you miss my point – I was being snarky about pregnant men.

            There are of course no pregnant men. Just women who are LARPing as men and under a delusion. The worst part of that being that they remove their breasts first, and fill up on hormones, then get pregnant. After being in denial they are women! Insanity.

            My point was that homosexuals don’t reproduce (except artificially inseminated lesbians) but trans people can, that is, if they don’t sterilize themselves.

          • Paula D June 29, 2022 at 10:13 am #

            I know you know, Mary. I was responding to SSL’s ”Though I do have to wonder how many pregnant men there really are.”

            I’m weary of these loons being called “gay” and “trans.” They are neither.

            More homos suffer from self-loathing and depression. No gaiety actually happening there.

            Likewise, it is a fiction that a person can “transition” from one biological sex to another. All you can do is dress in drag – mess with your hormones – and butcher your body. I mean, Hell’s Bells, I can dress up like Count Dracula on Halloween but that does not actually transform me physically into an undead vampire who flies through the night as a bat, sucks blood for sustenance, never shows a reflection in a mirror, and spontaneously erupts into flames in direct sunlight.

            It’s time to get real folks. These are unnatural “lifestyles,” and nothing more. All of these people are mentally I’ll to one degree or another.

        At least none of the ones I know have. The lying has become too ingrained.

        They usually find another outlet to re-channel the drinking, which can be just as annoying or abusive.

          I don’t abuse women. I Just call out one old, ugly, haggard, barren, spinster that calls a Good man “manlet” and unJustly ridicules his manhood sight unseen because of her pathetic Pride (and that still owes me an apology or explanation for unfounded, unexpected character attacks). I love women but, of course, not all women. Many women are despicable – Just like men. Sad but True.

          Satan will claim the vast majority of souls.

          I love women. In fact, I Just got off the phone with my lovely gf, Marina. We will pray together later this evening. I will pray for your soul, Prideful Mary, while you Hope that I continue to suffer blatant, life-destroying inJustice.

    Killing children via vax is evil beyond belief. North of the border priests, padres and nuns of mostly Catholic and Anglican religions have systemically sodomized and murdered tens of thousands of indigenous children in ‘residential schools’. The media does not mention ‘abuse’, it’s too close to the truth, preferring ‘reconciliation’. Pope Francis; that’s right, the Holy See, the Deity’s representative on this planet, is coming to the Great White North this summer to apologize for the most unholy, savage and brutal acts of sodomy and murder of his pernicious priests in the 20th century.

    A few children dying in a captive school residence due to some sort of illness may be expected. When hundreds die whilst in the care of pseudo priests, something is indeed rotten in the state of Canada. There were quasi cemeteries adjacent to the schools however many proximal unmarked graves discovered only by subsurface radar revealed the horrific extent of the unbridled willfulness.

        Frankly I don’t bother with all that wanna – be Sherlock Holmes evidence crap.

        I’ll go ahead and assume it is true.

        All of it.

        I’ll still go to Mass this Sunday , though.

        Why ?

        It’s about right and wrong , is it ?

        It’s about justice ?

        By all means , then , opponents of my terrible Catholic Church , tell me what your alternative is.

        So far , in 56 years , all I have heard of their alternative is ,

        ” He who dies with the most toys wins. ”

        If our victim becomes a Natalie Wood or a Brooke Shields , I suppose that might be somewhat meaningful.

        It’s a good bet though that the vast majority will live out their entire lives , and their final net worth amount to 500 dollars .

        And that would be doing well.

        When Statists talk about right and wrong and justice , while always at the same time not saying a fucking word about the implications of their religion which they won’t even call a religion , for good reason , they only piss me off , and disgust me.

        And they can fuck off.

    Speaking of , ” He who dies with the most toys wins. ”

    Never mind whether you believe in Candy land in the sky , or not.

    That creed doesn’t seem to work worth a shit in the concrete here and now even for the winners.

    Backrow Heckler has often mentioned Miley Cyrus.

    I got to thinking about that the other day .

    Specifically ;

    Having your own TV show ( for Christ sakes ) at 12 years old , like Miley Cyrus ,

    Wouldn’t that be the very textbook demonstration of truth , justice , goodness , and the all – important success , in the secular Bible that is not a Bible ?

    America , home of Disney and Hollywood , seems and excellent place to ask this question ;

    Of the 12 year olds who had their own TV shows , and were millionaires at 12 ,

    how many of them did not end up totally fucked up ?

    Someone you would not want to know , hang out with , or give your debit card pin number to ?

    Like I said , you want concrete , here and now evidence ?

    ” He who dies with the most toys wins. ”

    hasn’t worked for shit.

      I guess I was thinking that Candy land is in the sky or on the ground or wherever you wish it to be. More of a state of mind than a thing. And perhaps that explains the pitfall of the religion of things. If things are everything then you’re real savior is something like a perfect inventory manager. But you probably missed the messianic manager because toys. And too, do you have high expectations that 12 year olds are perfect managers?

      One of the Stupidification factors in the US is the “deification of the teenager through twenty five cult. Why? They are a huge consumer bloc and is kow towed to by the advertising industry everywhere. Celebrity worship peaks as the ads favor the celebrity crowd heavily.

      This age group knows nothing, it is at the beginning of the quest for knowledge. No wonder this country acts like it has its head up its butt, it worships the dumbest element of itself.

      Psycho babble says that a huge maturation step happens in the early twenties as teenagers turn into young adults, most of them. Some never do. Intelligent government would disallow adult decision making from this group until this stage is passed. That means 21 for all adult decision making.

      Voting

      Cigarettes

      Booze

      Drugs

      Military service

      Trans

      The parents need to be the decision makers until 21 for adult decision making.

      Maybe this country would act its age instead of being a bunch of adolescent punks.

      Another one, in lieu of the really dumb things I witness on the road, how about making the learners permit a mandatory year long process. An awful lot of it is a lack of road rules knowledge combined with an adolescent, boys especially, attitude.

      Immaturity creates trouble and is fed on by the powers that be, they, the PTB, sold the eighteen vote to get more of the dumb vote.

          Yes. Guns too, too many adolescent emotions running around. Adult supervision.

          Remember too, that 21 is not a magic number. Some kids mature earlier, others later. The emphasis is on parenting which quite honestly right now America sucks.

          21 is arbitrary.

          Adolescent mental illness is not monitored well by anyone, and should be. The FBI, a joke today, needs to quit worrying about politics and start doing their job, which this is one. So far, with all the shootings, the perps were suspicious and the Law enforcement at all levels did nothing.

      @ KesaAnna:

      A life lived to collect video game points or monopoly money–whose distribution is controlled by the controllers–isn’t much of a life. It’s actually a kind of social credit system in itself. You become a kind of Gollum sitting around in the dark (often literally), fondling his “precious”–a bloodless, crabbed, emaciated goblin living in a hole.

      While a person needs money, letting it control you will extinguish life itself. Life lived for life is full of wonder at the creation, mastery of ones work, in loving connection with and service to other people, and in self-cultivation.

      The Catholic Church is now celebrating the Year of St. Joseph, with the Litany of St. Joseph recited at every mass. One of his attributes mentioned in the litany is “lover of poverty.” This probably should be better understood to mean “lover of life; despiser of sham.”

          Glory of domestic life, pray for us.
          Guardian of virgins, pray for us.
          Pillar of families, pray for us.
          Solace of the afflicted, pray for us.

    Kari Lake tears it up in an inteview on the stolen election, etc.

    Watch the entire thing. She is quite polished and easily dismantles the Faux News shill — particularly the lie about the court cases and no evidence (the evidence was never allowed to be presented, as we know).

    • SoftStarLight June 28, 2022 at 1:25 pm #

      I like Kari Lake. Amazing that she forced the issue on Faux. I think only Tucker has even hopped around along the margins of that whole issue. That network must have made a fortune participating in the real Big Lie. And not sure if you heard but the Capitol police Sergeant at arms just died from unclear causes right in the middle of the whole Jan 6 committee star chamber show! He had actually said that professional agitators were behind the Capitol breach. So is it just so coincidental that he suddenly dies. Sounds too eerily similar to the whole cbc phenomenon to imagine it was a real life coincident

      • Night Owl June 28, 2022 at 4:19 pm #

        She and Desantis are the only two US politicians I can stomach to be honest. Both speak the unvarnished truth, though Lake takes it a step further.

        They will do everything they can to stop her. She is cool under fire, very well spoken, whip smart, and attractive.

        • Redneck Liberal June 28, 2022 at 6:49 pm #

          Ah, Night Howler has found a new hypocrite to lionise:

          “Kari Lake, a Trump-endorsed Republican who is running for Governor of Arizona, was confronted by Fox News host Bret Baier over her hypocrisy on drag queens.

          Earlier this month, Lake tweeted “They kicked God out of schools and welcomed the Drag Queens. They took down our Flag and replaced it with a rainbow. They seek to disarm Americans and militarize our Enemies. Let’s bring back the basics: God, Guns & Glory.”

          Richard Stevens, a Phoenix-area drag performer known as Barbra Seville, said in a Facebook post that “I’ve performed for Kari’s birthday, I’ve performed in her home (with children present,) and I’ve performed for her at some of the seediest bars in Phoenix. She’s come to my parties and has been asked to leave because door people thought she was too intoxicated to remain on premises.”

          In the post, Stevens provides photos of Lake partying with drag queens.

          When confronted with this on Fox News, Lake lost her cool, saying that “I’m appalled that you would bring that up when you have not talked about our stolen election.”

          • MaryQueen June 28, 2022 at 7:36 pm #

            She covered that. She said it’s adult entertainment, and her problem with them is when they are forced on children.

            No one is telling drag queens to stop performing.

            The drag queen (as she has said) has libeled her because she never hired him, as he claims.

    It was all Cassidy Hutchinson today at the hearings. Told of Trump throwing plates and food at the walls in the WH. Informed by the secret service agents who were present, Told of Trump saying, ‘I’m the fucking president, take me to the capitol.’ They refused, citing security reasons, took him back to the WH on the 6th.

    Veiled threats made to people testifying. Witness tampering, is it not?

    Enough has been presented to recommend indictment. You could say that all of the above amounts to just mouse nuts, but everything taken together has sealed Trump’s fate. Too many Republicans, whether aides or members of Congress, etc., have spoken out against him. The gift that keeps on giving.

    When will they choose to recommend indictment, September? Who knows? What will the DOJ do?

    ‘History is made up of things that seem like good ideas at the time. The hard part now is moving out of a familiar time into the undiscovered country of a new time.’ JHK

    Yes, a time beyond Trump.

          Trump probably did throw temper tantrums and throw shit around.
          It would not surprise me at all.
          I watched a gs-14 throw four expensive phones at a wall in three years and had a gs-13 admin officer finally tell him to knock it off or he was going to fill out some property destruction form and be investigated for it.

          The election was rigged and there is video proof.
          Deny that fact all you want but in our lifetime this crime will eventually wash out.
          Just like the Cook county fraud it won’t matter in twenty or so years.

          Trump was a decent resident in the Whitehouse, best ever doubtful?
          That remains to be seen but certainly better than the brain-dead puppet disgracing those halls now. I promise if Trump was still President, Russians would not be invading Ukraine, gas would be under $3 a gallon and the economy would not be on the skids.

            Says the person who still hasn’t ‘debunked’ any of Dr Chetty’s testimony about covid and the ‘vaccines’.

            worldcouncilforhealth.org/multimedia/uvc-shankara-chetty/

            It’s OK, though, because ‘Lead Stories’ said ‘there’s no evidence’ of Dr Shetty’s assertions. That would be ‘Lead Stories’ who are Facebook’s ‘fact checker’. Lead Stories, who admitted, in court, where they were being sued by the British Medical Journal, that they simply made stuff up and that their ‘fact checks’ were nothing more than ‘opinion’.

            You can read Lead Stories here – they’re spectacularly impressive.

            So, Mark Zuckerberg, who is on record as promising Fauci help with censorship and propaganda, wants you to know ‘there’s no evidence’.

            Clearly there’s no evidence, then, and all those extras all-cause deaths that are happening only in highly ‘vaccinated’ countries, are down to the pixies, a delusion which may prevent you shrivelling up like a deflated condom. For a while, anyway.

            The mind of a hidebound Democrat like Redneck is a wondrous array of delusion and falsehood. It is why they can cheat and lie without breaking a smile.

            Their world is based on Disneyland beliefs which is why Disney itself is a Leftist cult.

            Look at it this way. If the center of your beliefs is that an evil gang of plutocrats formed up to form a government of any level, local, state, federal or now wonderfully global, is a better thing than the governing by the people themselves, the insanity of Leftists stands out.

            The obsolescence of the Congress, which has not produced anything of substance in years, and the corruption of election days point in the direction of Uniparty which we seem to be headed.

            This just in the narrative set by the latest hearing is already coming apart.

            The young lady was using second hand testimony which has already been debunked by the two Secret service agents.

            It was also pointed out this shitty committee is all chaired by people who voted to impeach Trump and all of the should have recused themselves.

            Further it would appear that President Trump authorized 20k national guards to be deployed to keep the peace so there goes the narrative he wanted violence!

            So tell me redneck do you still believe President Trump colluded with the Russians?

            Is there a fabrication about Trump you won’t believe?

            So, have you watched 2000 Mules yet?
            No why not… because you don’t want to have your errant belief system challenged and have to admit you have been conned.
            Long conned to boot you can’t see everything your side pushes is division and destructive.
            No, we expect NOTHING from you but more of the same gruel.

      A slap on the wrist, and, ofc, no release of the client list — which contains, no doubt, a large number of the Uniparty criminals you support.

        I actually think she is in a lot of trouble. They placed her on “suicide watch” the other day. 20 years is a long time for someone so used to lush and plush luxury and full freedoms. She is still a grave risk to the vampires. And of course as you note. The judge and prosecutors said how evil she was. But. What about Epstein’s clients? Never hear nuthin about them

        • Blackbird June 28, 2022 at 10:38 pm #

            Yes you are mostly likely correct in your assessment. Or she will be a good quiet jail bird maybe? She sketches very well and could perhaps do arts and crafts. If I was trapped in a cage that would be nice to work on. And I would probably try to start writing. But yeah dunno for sure how it is going to work out.

            Yeah sorta. I mean, I’m probably on all kinds of lists and at this point i just assume it will get bad and all. Lol those sound like good goals. A law degree would be a wonderful asset as you can then understand the system they use against you and turn it around on them perhaps.

            Mary isn’t wrong. Particularly here in Europe, rape and other forms of sexual violence against women are often ignored entirely by the authorities. My lady counsels these women every day.

            The level of aggression here when these sorts of topics come up is quite interesting.

      @ Redneck Liberal:

      Most of us here are old enough to recognize a pathological liar when we encounter one. (I flatter myself that this is definitely not my first rodeo in that department.)

      With many of them lying is reflexive; they automatically lie about literally everything. Some of them have woven a fantasy world because their real-world existence is too painful. But most of the time they’re just gaslighting you: “I didn’t to do that. I didn’t say that. I didn’t mean that. That was a joke. That wasn’t me. Ask my mom; she’ll back me up.”

      It’s possible that you think that lying is clever, but I assure you that you and your ilk have been at it so long that time has pretty well destroyed all its engenuity. (And backing up your story by citing known and notorious pathological liars is unconvincing.)

  77. elysianfield June 28, 2022 at 7:06 pm #

    Well, ladies and germs;

    The Pentagon, in essence our various military branches, has decided not to end abortions on federal military bases. It suggests that the Supreme Court decision rises to the level of a suggestion.

    Question…by what mechanism are Supreme Court decisions upheld…enforced? In effect, how many divisions does the Supreme Court have?

    What other decisions might be considered improvident or inconvenient?

    Posse Comitatus?
    Military Draft laws?
    various articles of the Bill of Rights in the Constitution?

    I’m sure some lawyer parsed that the Roe Vs Wade decision applied only to a law Federally mandated to the States, and military reservations ain’t States.

    Or something.

          • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 6:41 am #

            I do not see irony here, I see a person in total denial of the evil attributes of the hidebound Leftists in this country who have never believed in law and order or the Constitution.

            If they do not like what the law makers or the judicial say about the law, just ignore it and lie about it. Or get some Leftist judge or DA to deny it.

            The Democratic creed!

            BTW, like Eric Holder, we now have Merrick Garland to distort or ignore the laws of the land. Thank goodness he did not get on the Supreme Court, a more Leftist justice could not have been found.

            I never understood it. It comes off as childish and delusional as we are all human. D’uh!

            People changed. When I was a kid through to coaching Provincial Championships in Bantam Football in 1989 and 1991, young athletes needed to be corrected on what they had done Wrong far more than back-patted for what they had done Right. That’s how they learned and got Better.

            By the time that I coached Pee Wee Hockey in 2009-10, however, feelings had trumped everything else. Back-pats only or lose the kids and the parents.

    When Nina “Mary Sloppins” Jankowicz predictably crashed and burned as the standard-bearer for the Biden administration’s Ministry of Truth, most people with two brain cells to rub together rejoiced. This was a logical response to aesthetic terrorism, as the gratingly-voiced compulsive liar being shoved in our face was a clear example of the narrative managers adding insult to injury. But anyone who thought we had heard the last of Washington’s Disinformation Governance Board was sadly mistaken. The creature which has replaced Jankowicz is significantly more horrifying, a nightmarish Nosferatu whose mommy was in the Mossad, who’s played a starring role in some of the most heinous crimes against humanity of the last two decades.

          I also compared Dominic Cummings to Gollum – it’s in the archive waiting for you to check.

          On the other hand, I’ve never compared Telly Savalas to Gollum, because it’s not a baldy guy thing, it’s a sinister-looking baldy guy thing.

          I haven’t even compared the mega-sinister Klaus to Gollum, because he’s more of a Nosferatu.

          Right, so I’ve looked up the evil-looking Mr Chertoff in Wikipedia and I see he’s Jewish, which I didn’t know. Was that your point?

          Because you’d be better not reading between the lines and assuming things that aren’t there.

          • GreenAlba June 29, 2022 at 1:31 pm #

            My point was the the evil guy looked like an older version of Harari who is definitely an evil guy. Their ethnic origins weren’t in my mind at all, but I have to assume you weren’t just bounced for being rude about a couple of baldy guys (or whoever), given your history of antisemitic comments.

            On second thoughts, I’m more with the Chertoff chap as Nosferatu anyway and Klaus as a gain-of-function version of the Donald Pleasance Bond villain.

            Ugly feckers all, anyway.

            I loved the way you went hunting for the context of my statement. Yet when I tried to talk about context a while back, you called me crazy.

            All statements exist in a context or implicit understanding between people. If we sense an alien one, our psychic ears pick up. People realized immediately that Mitch had a different context or container than the rest of us, even though he is intelligent and well informed.

            BTW, I get up every morning and say a little thank you for not having popped my clogs during the night.

            When I take the dog out, I make a little request to get home safely and not drop dead on the pavement (I still don’t know where my old friend from school had her catastrophic heart attack, but she seems to have been on her own and was ‘found’). Likewise, when I set off for York for her funeral, I made a little request to get there and back safely and not have her family wonderng why I hadn’t turned up after saying I was coming.

            I’d quite like to drop dead in my own house or else somewhere lush and green, or by the sea, when I’m not on my own bar the dog.

            So if you think being banned from a blog site, even one I’ve been on for more years than I can remember – especially for some sin you’re blathering about that I don’t even understand – is going to ‘terrify’ me, you are rather short of insight.

    Pro-Pedophile Activist Arrested in Ecuador After Allegedly Sexually Abusing “Dozens” of Children

    “A man who advocated for the destigmatization of pedophilia has been arrested in Ecuador on suspicion of sexually abusing children in the country.

    Marthijn Uittenbogaard, 50, was arrested after a manhunt was launched to bring him to justice. The Dutch national was arrested around the town of Canoa after the Transnational Crime Investigation Unit of the National Police of Ecuador became aware he had allegedly sexually abused “dozens” of children while staying there.”

            If there is female, there must be male. If there is life, there must be death. You assign men what you think is the bad, and think that women can exist by themselves as “the good”. It cannot be.

            From another pov, in this culture, women get to choose men. Why do they always go for the tall, aggressive ones whenever they can? The warriors? You could have shaped humanity into a different form by choosing another kind of man, but you all didn’t want to.

            Now you want to blame us for how humanity is and how men are – and take no blame at all?

            “From another pov, in this culture, women get to choose men.”

            Attractive women get to choose men, just as attractive men get to choose women.

            On the other hand, loads of people just make someone’s acquaintance entirely by an accident of fate and don’t pick them out of a bunch. They they get fond of them, and then, and then …

          • Jarek June 29, 2022 at 8:54 pm #

            Alba: Well women are the ones who wanted to utterly change the relationship between the sexes and the world as well. So why do they keep selecting men for success and the aggression that goes with it? It doesn’t seem like they are very serious, does it? But they are certainly serious about cashing out. Dead serious on that score. The idealism is just a cover to hide their intentions – even from themselves.

          • Anthea June 29, 2022 at 9:40 pm #

            I don’t think the thesis that women select men “for success and the aggression that goes with it” would hold up under even a cursory examination. I don’t think I’ve ever known a woman who selected such a man for a marriage partner.

            Now a sensible woman will select a man who can earn a decent living, if she can attract such a man. Stability and a reasonable facsimile of family values is a big consideration–if she can find and attract a man with family values.

            Another consideration is the type of life she is likely to live with a particular man. A woman is choosing the character of her future when she chooses a husband. E.g., if you are a country girl and want to have chickens and dairy goats and a big garden, you should probably not choose a guy who was born and raised in NYC and whose family has lived there for generations. If you are a socialite you probably should not choose a country boy.

            Back when I was young and living in the city, the guy I was dating argued for our compatibility by saying, “We both like city life and apartment life.” I held my tongue, but I should have replied, “You think I live here because I want to?”

            It’s true that very young women will often date a “bad boy.” It’s also true that men often like to date a “bad girl.”

            A male relative once told me that my trouble with men was because, “You’re a good woman. Men don’t want a good woman. They want a woman who will create a lot of trouble and drama and make their lives a roller-coaster ride.”

          • Jarek June 29, 2022 at 10:28 pm #

            Crazy people are often sexy, but there are far more important things than sex, both positive (like peace) and negative (like not losing everything you have in court).

            Women divorce men 80% of the time because it is in their financial interest to do so. So men are withdrawing. Why would women withdraw from such a lucrative scam as marriage now is?

            Never sign a contract which the other part will be rewarded for breaking.

          • Anthea July 1, 2022 at 7:11 am #

            Women divorce men 80% of the time because in at least that percentage of cases it is the women who is suffering some form of abuse in the relationship.

            Men are less likely to initiate divorce because they are perfectly okay with a relationship in which they can be irresponsible and abusive. What’s to complain about? The wife is supporting the family and they can spend their days drinking. They can verbally and physically abuse the wife and kids without consequences.

            Divorce will almost invariably be initiated by the person who is being abused in the marriage, and not by the person who is the problem.

            I suppose that when a landlord evicts a deadbeat, destructive tennant, the fact that it was the landlord who initiated the legal proceedings proves that it is the landlord who is to blame for the situation.

          • Anthea July 1, 2022 at 7:13 am #

            @ Jarek:

            I’m guessing that 100% of eviction proceedings are initiated by the landlord. So, in you book, this is proof that he’s the bad guy.

          • Anthea July 1, 2022 at 7:27 am #

            @ Jarek:

            Also, when landlords, who initiate eviction proceedings 100% of the time, they do so because it is to their financial advantage. They seek to remove the deadbeat who five dogs are tearing the place up and pissing on the carpet, and whose garbage is piled up to the ceilig. This, in your view, makes them the bad guy.

            The landlord will also seek financial compensation (back rent and compensation for damages) through the courts.

            We do not generally consider the landlord to be the one at fault because he has initiated legal proceedings or because such is to his financial advantage.Nor do we consider him to be a fault in seeking further financial compensation beyond just getting the bum out.

          The wound must be lanced. Men must regain control. We can’t tolerate these kinds of attacks against our dignity.

          I’ve told you before that I don’t include you in this, but the bonds of Sisterhood seem too strong and you can’t resist being pulled in. If only Men loved each other as much! – but alas we are in competition, and women have gotten the best of us, to the detriment of all.

          Feminism is demonic. It has always been so but now the mask is off. You can’t identify with people like this. You must fight it.

          Feminine solidarity will always exist. Among good women, it’s a wonderful thing. It makes complete sense in Patriarchy, as a check against male overstepping. A man gets pushy with a woman, and other women notice and may intervene. Or go to the authorities.

          In our system now, with Patriarchy overthrown, it means tyranny against men and loneliness for women as men withdraw. It can’t be helped since the System is using women to abuse men, both culturally and legally.

          Of course, sisterhood is itself tricky, even apart from men and feminism. I’ve noticed how fast women can fall into intense friendships, sometimes I even envied it. But they often fall too fast, and live to regret not taking it slower.

          @ Jarek:

          I think you are also mistaken about men wanting patriarchy. That would entail responsibility. The main reason so many men have embraced feminism (or at least go along with it) is because it is very much to their advantage.

          As i’ve mentioned before, the only people who were liberated by women’s liberatio were men, who have been liberated from all social, sexual, moral, and financial responsibility.

          If patriarchy were to be restored, by whatever means, the men would have to return to the days of being the sole support of their families. The opportunities for screwing around, both before and after marriage, would be greatly diminished and socially frowned upon. There would be an expectation that the relationship between men and women before marriage would be one in which the men had honorable intentions towards the women. We’d also be back to dating-as-courtship with the intention of marriage. So no more one-night-stands, or dating a woman in the expectation of getting laid after dinner and drinks.

          Heck, you might even have to bring your lady some flowers once in awhile, ffs.

          Somewhere in America, there may be three or four guys who want patriarchy, with its attendant requirements. I am inclined to doubt that you are one of them. I say this because you are consistently so much opposed to men taking responsibility. Um… You want patriarchy; that’s part of the deal.

    That was actually one thing that really made me think twice or maybe even three times about the whole theme of the Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Of course the usual or typical reaction is fear I guess. But then a part of me wondered what it would be like to become one of them. What is actually so great about being human in the cosmic scheme of things? Really when it comes down to it humans seem to be as nasty and brutish as any other animal. And likely much more cruel than most animals. I would link to Bjork’s Human Behavior if I could. But all of the emotional ups and downs and so forth and over what exactly. And how exclusionary every community is and how they are all murderers. And so how exactly then can the pod people truly be that bad. No emotions, no conflict, etc etc. The world of humans is so hopelessly fucked up that the borg doesn’t seem so bad after all.

      The residual animalistic sides of Mankind comprises the sins of the world. God has been attempting to lift us out of the evils of sin for a long time.

      Looking around, I would say He is losing the battle recently.

      Just as is projected by the End of Days.

      To be human is to battle the temptations of the world. Just like Jim Kirk in Star Trek, people need both sides to be complete. If we were all plants, with no personalities sculpted by both sides, what would be the point.

      @ SoftStarLight:

      I think you have to have a talent for loving people. This is not one of my talents, but I’ve known several people who can do it.

      I have one old friend who often says he hates people, but the truth is that he has the greatest talent for loving people I’ve ever encountered. He thinks all his friends are the most interesting, exciting, fascinating, and hilarious people in the world. I think this is partly because he thinks so highly of himself that he takes it for granted that everyone who is associated with him is automatically part of some highly exclusive coterie of fascinating people.

      You have to be a pretty tough cookie to accomplish this–someone who absolutely will not tolerate being imposed on for even a minute.

      However, the talent for loving people can be cultivated. What helped me was to realize that adults should be treated the way you would treat your children, so lots of kind words and encouragement, and an effort to understand the context of who they are. This last is not always easy to find out, as adults are very good at keeping secrets, but you can often get the details through the gossip loop, or just by being perceptive.

      Often you’ll find out that their family life was difficult when they were a child or that their late husband was a big shyster–and since his demise his widow has assumed her proper place in the world as a local grand dame. People are their doings really are fascinating, with many a, “Hoo, boy!” (I have to stop myself from telling stories here.)

      Of course you can’t take this kind of warm interest in men, or they will hit on you. Exceptions are elderly married men and elderly widowers, and even then you will need the addition defenses of being a married Christian woman known to be of firm virtue. (Gay men are safe, obviously.)

      Perhaps this last caution will give Jarek a clue as to why men are so seldom the recipients of female kindness and encouragement. Heck, I’m 74 and I still have to be careful about that.

      • Jarek June 30, 2022 at 12:21 pm #

        Yes, so much so that women won’t stop for men broken down on the road at all but WILL criticize men stopping for pretty girls more than older women.

        Or row back for men in the water after the Titanic sank. The men might have hit on them, right? Unlove gets to be a most comfortable habit, eh Ant?

        Tolkien talked about this in his letters: That it’s almost impossible for men and women to be friends in this horrible world. Thus once strict morality fail, gay men rush into the vacuum and receive the love of women and vice versa, and the Alliance against that Society is formed. It’s not the only agent of destruction, but it is certainly one of them.

      • SoftStarLight June 30, 2022 at 12:38 pm #

        Very interesting and thank you for sharing your experiences Anthea. I do understand your points and the caution one must have in dealing with the opposite sex. However, I do also see Jarek’s points. It seems like a lot of men are even if friendly very hesitant about womens’ motives in todays times. So for instance you’ll hear men say that every women has an angle in everything she does. Including who she talks to etc. And quite honestly lots of men now are very open about the fact that they consider most women to be potential gold diggers and generalized trouble makers. And all of these things are coming in to play to prevent people from trusting and forming friendships let alone relationships. I do think that the instinctual caution we have for men is simply like you said going back to biology. But I also see how society has encouraged certain sets of behavior that are disadvantageous to building trust and are causing problems on both sides.

        • Anthea July 1, 2022 at 8:38 am #

          @ SoftStarLight:

          I live in rural America (flyover country) and have for over 20 years, and I may be unfamiliar with life in the big city.

          One of my former neighbors had a son whose girlfriend kicked him out, so he moved into the utility room in his dad’s trailer. The son was an alcoholic who had lost his job as a pizza-delivery boy because of alcoholism. His car had been repossessed. He used to tell me that his ambition in life was to find a “cougar” to support him, and he often lamented that, “Women are so selfish and materialistic. The first thing they ask you when you meet them is, ‘What do you do?'” (The ladies were kind of expecting him to have a job.) I considered asking him why he didn’t apply to some of his guy friends to support him, since the ladies were proving so selfish.

          This same guy once called me up in the middle of the night from the police station, because the cops had told him that if he could find someone to pay for the two slices of pizza that he had stolen from Casey’s, they’d let him go. So I went down and paid two bucks or so for the pizza.

          So you have a certain element among the menfolk who believe that any woman who holds men to a higher standard than rescue-mission material is a “gold digger.”

          One of my daughter’s male friends once complained that he had asked one of his co-workers at a little convneience store for a date, and she replied, “Well, no offense, but you’re really not ‘datable.’ You have a part-time job at a convenience store, you live at home with your parents, you don’t have a car or a driver’s license, and your mom drives you to and from work.” So she’s a “gold digger,” right? (The guy in question here was around 30, by the way.)

          Also, women in general will date and marry within their class. The girl from the solidly upper-middle-class family will probably not date the boy from the trailer park. That’s just the way it is–and properly so.

          As near as I can tell, the gold-digger accusation is usually leveled at any women who expects the man in her life to be one who accepts a role of adult responsibility. A sensible woman is not looking to adopt an overgrown child.

    Looks like Turkey has dropped its objections and Finland & Sweden will be joining NATO. News sites in Europe are gloating over it, stating that the Baltic Sea will now be known as the NATO Sea, Russia is surrounded, Russia is on the ropes etc. It’s very curious, one way or the other, that video of a missile strike on a Kiev shopping mall turned up on the very day of the NATO summit in Brussels, and the day Z was addressing NATO leaders. Nobody is saying why Turkey changed its mind and acquiesced to expanding NATO. One can imagine the arm twisting and bribery. Also, so far, Russian reaction is being ignored. The thinking appears to be that Russia can be trifled with like Iraq and Syria were and is not a major power with 6000 thermo nuclear weapons bolted on rockets that can transport them to any point on earth.

      It is unbelievable the distortion being delivered by the PTB of the West and their cohorts in the media.

      The past goodness of NATO is being ground into the dust by a group of seven hooligans led by a demented leader representing a demented country.

      What will the excuse be when Russia shuts off European energy and delivers it to Asia?

      NATO’s motto seems to be,

      What, Me Worry?

      NATO better worry.

      Think about this. Say the world energy wise fissures. Does the West have enough oil and gas to “feed” itself without input from Russia and potentially the Middle East? The demented one has destroyed our capabilities and relations with countries supplying oil to the West. If we have secured a tight bond in Eurasia by our demented leadership, then we probably deserve all the bad stuff happening right now.

    • benr June 29, 2022 at 8:24 am #

      I suspect it has to do with what an absolute joke the Russian military appears to be.
      They couldn’t even do the maintenance on their land-based vehicles, so I suspect the vast majority of them nukes are nothing more than noisy dirty bombs.
      It takes a lot of actual maintenance to keep them viable and that takes people and most of all money.

      • BackRowHeckler June 29, 2022 at 8:32 am #

        You’re probably correct, Ben. But even if only 10% of those nukes are operable, it’s a problem. I think my point is, it might not be such a good idea to paint Russia into a corner.

        • benr June 29, 2022 at 8:46 am #

          Russia is openly corrupt, but we are not that far behind with the likes of the big guy being told what to do and speak even when to sit down.
          I believe Russia at this point would be better ally than enemy.
          The true threat is Chinese.
          No one seems to want to call out what China is doing all over Africa and South America.

        Point of view from Russia:

        “The problem in Ukraine is that all are involved in a civil war in which neither side has real legitimacy: the Kievan government owes its existence to illegal, foreign employment of factions undertaking a coup designed elsewhere. It was a coup carried out by imperialists, their trained agents and imported mercenaries (largely from Poland and Georgia). It gave rise to a government nominated and designated in Washington with no mandate from or responsibility to the people.

        The Russian backed side has more legitimacy- it represents continuity with the President and constitutional practices driven out of the country by armed, foreign directed, terrorists. As a rough rule of thumb it is reasonable assumption that Russian speaking Ukrainians will not actually support a government acting against their interests, language and clearly engaged in cultural genocide. We can thus, assume that most Russian speaking areas would declare for the party led by Russia and the Two Republics if released from reigns of terror, directed by Kiev……
        It might very well be convenient for Moscow to leave much of the Ukraine in the hands of the current regime but it is no longer a practical option, as it might have been had Minsk been instituted. Now, the truth is no longer in doubt: left to the Kiev fascists and NATO the majority of the population will be trafficked, impoverished and displaced. They cannot be left to the mercies of a system which wants to get rid of them, auction their birthright-the land of Ukraine- and erase their culture, language included. No Russian government could survive such a betrayal. Nor could the Russian nation survive such a failure of its duty to itself.”

            Indeed. Biden was the one Victoria Nuland said they needed the “attaboy” from before they overthrew the elected government and put in their hand-picked coup government.

      I think that Sweden and Finland agreed to stop coddling the Kurds, which was Erdogan’s stated objection.
      If the US and NATO think that they are now going to take over the Black Sea they have another think coming.
      Putin saved Erdogan’s butt back when Obama pushed a coup to overthrow him.
      But there is no honor among thieves.
      I think there are still Turkish troops in Syria. Just sayin…….

    • Paula D June 29, 2022 at 11:12 am #

      Turkey has been requesting extradition on an iman they accuse of terrorism since Clinton let him into the US back in the 90s.
      I hear he’s senile now, but the US still won’t extradite him.
      He lives in an enormous mansion in Virginia and the US taxpayers pay him big bucks for his charter schools.
      I wonder if the US finally agreed to extradite him as part of the deal.
      I’ll try a link by adding spaces….

        I think a Russian missile attack on the US may be what they want. They are certainly setting up all the chess pieces to provoke it. I’m not sure why. The only thing I can think of is that China would like to take the place over but doesn’t want to be troubled by our urban population. Take out the cities and their violent criminal and grifter population, and you’ve got a nice country with vast resources.

        Of course that scenario presumes that China is allied with NATO in this matter.

    Also, closer to home, in New Haven rhetoric is heating up over the Distinguished Citizen who was injured while riding in a Paddy Wagon on his way to jail. Ben Crump is here, stirring the pot. The individual in question — I think his name is Richard Cox — wasn’t a model citizen, with many prior arrests on his record. On the day in question he was drunk at the ‘Juneteenth’ celebration on the famous New Haven green, and waving a 9mm handgun around. Once arrested and locked inside the Paddy Wagon he began flipping around, throwing himself on the deck and against bulkheads — and was injured when the driver of the vehicle abruptly stopped to avoid an accident. Strangely enough everybody involved are vaunted ‘People of Color’ — the cops, the suspect, the jailers — but the enmity from ‘The Community’ seems to be directed at Whitey. It’s a curious phenomena, and one that is amplified by local media.

          Not to attack other posters.

          Only Redneck, and only on issues.

          There is a difference between debating issues with data and facts and just mouthing off against folks.

          JHK makes sure that discourse stays civil, or at least tries to.

          A true feminist, like anybody else, wants equality in the workplace, the voting booth and the law. Today’s feminists have gone way beyond that, wanting control of everything. Just like every other power group, Dems, GOP, NAACP, La Raza, CAIR, and a myriad of others. Hence the divisions in our society.

          The common denominator is that each group is full of zealots that want to take over and imprint their credo on everyone else.

          Used to be a common culture that was America.

          • MaryQueen June 29, 2022 at 2:36 pm #

            It’s really disappointing that you all paint ALL feminists and women as the same. This couldn’t be further from the truth.

            Second-wave feminists (radical feminists) fight to keep women’s rights (the ones we already won) from disappearing; fight to keep women and girls safe from male predators (or are you FOR that?) in bathrooms, locker rooms, women’s shelters, and prisons.

            We also fight against violent porn, domestic violence, and support women’s bodily autonomy.

            Which of those things are you against? BTW, the ‘feminists’ you can’t stand because of #MeToo are the antithesis of what original feminists stand for and fight for.

            At least know the difference between lumping us together. It’s the same as not getting the difference between gay people wanting to marry, and the trans scourge of pedos trying to get at kids.

          • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 2:41 pm #

            What is the agency that will beat down each groups agenda and maintain the common agenda.

            The Supreme Court?

            Congress no way, so many divisions that a majority on anything of consequence is impossible. That is why the courts and Executive Orders have been so common on making law. Ironic that the mechanism that the Dems have used for so long, the judiciary, just blew up in their faces. Just desserts.

            The Executive Branch? Ha, don’t make me laugh. The White House uses division for its own purposes all the time. Same with the media! Same with the social media!

            Is it in the basic nature of this country to divide itself? Is the only way to keep any national focus to go to war? If war does not happen, would the US just divide itself of its own accord?

            Uh, I think I said that except a little more succinctly.

            I believe the ultimate aim is equality. No superiority. That is where the groups lose me. Unfortunately, it is human nature to grab all the power you can.

            What are women’s rights, anyway? What is different from the Everyman look at the laws?

            Ah, abortion!!! You are wasting your time.

            A topic that will NEVER be settled. Murder to half the population, dissection of tissue to the other half. Abortion by itself could be the slavery of another civil war.

            I agree with you one hundred percent of the female impersonators getting into female territory and also going after the minds of our children.

            Here is the rub, Mary. The zealots fighting for abortion are the same as the LBGTQ and phony Trannies. Not me, your forces need to be able to tell the difference that the Everywoman wants. Not just me, but the conservative wing wants the Everywoman to step up to the plate.

            #Metoo is a joke, always has been, the product of the Hollywood zealots that were dumb enough to get caught up in the director’s couch game made popular by Hugh Hefner and his mob. BTW, half of the Hefner mob were women. Their idea of organized revenge.

            I understand the difference, it is the progressive element that does not.

      Agree the goal is that you don’t own the device or its contents.
      But it does not have to be that way.
      One of my greatest joys is to disconnect devices from The System so there is no way for external control. I do this for any device FOR FREE!

      Imagine Windows, Android, and iOS unable to talk to the mothership and Not checking for updates.

      You can disable the data your car is sending out, modify Fuel/Air maps in ECU’s, and even nuke data in the ‘black box’.

      Most things can be Disconnected if you know how to do it.
      Disconnect from it all. You don’t need it.

        I hear that. I’m still a few years from retirement but am seriously considering completely disconnecting from all use of the Internet, cell phones, computers, television, etc once I retire.

        As one’s time horizon above ground on this planet shortens, one is less and less inclined to spend any of that precious time on these electronic distractions that tend to accelerate one’s perception of the passage of time while stealing precious hours away from more productive and personally fulfilling activities.

        Of course, unplugging from the Matrix is not easy and our state and corporatist overlords sternly discourage the practice. With each passing year they are making it more and more difficult to do so.

        I might have to flee to the Wilderness and live a monkish lifestyle to pull it off. The constant pressure other people place upon you to use all of this techno crap is unrelenting.

    Irony One:

    The Dobbs decision stated that: “The Constitution does not confer a right to abortion; Roe and Casey are overruled; and the authority to regulate abortion is returned to the people and their elected representatives.”

    The people on the left screaming about Dobbs are the same ones who have histrionics about “our sacred democracy.”

    Irony Two:

    If a person punches a 10 weeks’ pregnant woman in the stomach and the fetus/baby dies, that person is charged with murder, because they ended a life.

    If a woman aborts her 10 week fetus/baby, it is not murder.

    Apparently NATO will announce that they are increasing their forces from 40,000 to 500,000 because of “Russian aggression”.
    Where will they find 460,000 extra soldiers? Will they all be gender neutral?
    In Ukraine they ran out of j18-60 year old male cannon fodder so announced that they were going to start on the women, but I have heard nothing more about that. Did they do it?
    They were literally snatching men out of gas lines, giving them 2 weeks training shooting 30 bullets and then shipping them to the frontlines.
    There are anti-government demonstrations and fodder-mutinies even in western Ukraine, home of the Banderists. There are simply not that many Nazi-lovers in Ukraine, no matter what our media says.
    I’m guessing that they will not start snatching women up and that NATO will not add 460,000 soldiers.
    They lie.

    OK, CFN’rs, nut sack cutting time is near;

    The daily Situational Awareness today opines;

    InFocus: The importance of preparedness

    I rarely make recommendations in these reports, however, I want to express my concern about what I’m seeing.

    I have a strong sense of urgency around the food situation, as I believe challenges will last for years and could worsen substantially next year. I strongly urge you, if you haven’t already, to consider ways to expand your preparedness for at least the next 1-3 years, and potentially much longer. That might be adding to food storage, growing a garden, or building relationships with local farmers, ranchers, and homesteads – maybe all three, as I’m doing. (And even before food, developing sustainable access to clean water is a top priority.) Catastrophic conditions or mass starvation are not in my baseline expectations, but the era of cheap and abundant food is taking a breather. Parts of the United States could face persistent power outages this year (as some already have), food availability will become more constrained, and a recession will complicate political, social, and, obviously, economic, financial, and monetary conditions. I keep an even keel when it comes to “doom and gloom,” I consider the alternative, and recognize that things are almost never as bad as the predictions, however, I have also never believed as strongly as I do now that disruptions to “life as usual” will worsen in the years to come. – M.S.

    One to three years? We need to come together as a group to insure our “survival” in the upcoming months. I propose that each and every one of us, on site, declare exactly how much food we have put away, and of what type, including Sammies, (in any significant volume)…also, we should list our addresses, so that we might, in times of stress, gather and conduct trade and discuss further issues in preparedness. I will go first in listing my efforts at preparedness;

    I have a brace of Model 28’s….

          60’s mentality. Total crap. People are becoming “formless” even on the physical level. This is good?

          The Ancient Greeks saw the original infinite as a Chaos. Form and Law was the beginning of life and growth. And turning back toward “do your own thing” is degeneration, a turning back towards the lawless Chaos.

      The interpersonal conflict is a disappointment, especially when it occurs between posters whose comments I generally find informative or entertaining.

      Still, there’s a lot of decent conversation between people with differing viewpoints. As Mango suggests, it’s a buffet, you don’t have to eat everything.

      • Wizard of the Saddle June 29, 2022 at 3:45 pm #

        I’m occasionally guilty of this as well, but some commentary by trolls simply begs for a bit of bitch-slapping rebuttal.

        With that said, I agree, we’d all benefit from more self-restraint. The value of this forum is that it attracts many thoughtful and intelligent people with worthwhile things to say. But as the noise level goes up, the frequency of thoughtful posts tends to decline or to get lost in the multitude of flame posts.

        It would be a good thing if we all tried to dial back a bit on the rhetorical dueling matches. Like the saying goes: Don’t feed the trolls.

        • Blackbird June 29, 2022 at 3:54 pm #

          I agree with not feeding the trolls. Fortunately, we do not seem to have very many real trolls onboard these days; in fact only one name currently comes to mind…

          If we didn’t feed the trolls, they might go away – after all they feed on our attention. But some people like playing Whack-a-Troll, so it seems my experiment will never be performed.

          If somebody leaves a turd on the buffet, I don’t put it on my plate.

            People who call others trolls are almost invariably trolls.

      Monkeys? Consider dogs. Watch ’em all thrown together at random in a fenced in enclosure, and watch all the fun, chasing, romping etc. But out of a group of say, 100 dogs, there’s the one that starts fights. Then the cell phones come out, and animal control is on the way to bust up a dogfight. Sorta like moderators do on forums maybe. Like the dog catcher, the forum’s moderator seldom appears. But when he does its usually for official business and he comes equipped with a long pole that has an adjustable noose on the end of it for taking the poor doggy to the canine paddy wagon. If monkeys had the minds of dogs, I don’t think they’d be throwing poo at each other. A few of the doggies might be eating poo. Dogs are less disgusting creatures than primates.

            Yeah, “Indian” is a hated term – to self-loathing white people.

            The only Native American with whom I have ever discussed the issue said that he calls himself an Indian. (Well actually he isAnishinaabe, but of course you pretty much have to be one to know what that is, so… “Indian”.) It’s what he grew up calling himself, his family, and the tribe. “Native American” is just another name applied to his people by white people, he said.

    My wife told me she had listened this morning to a report about the nightmare of the airports and that they confirmed my own observation that Toronto “was the worst.”

    There’s a bunch of reasons: people have been cooped up so long that once the summer began everybody and his brother decided to travel… so the numbers of travelers is up. At the same time there is a shortage of pilots and other airline employees who work in the terminals. The people who search your carry-ons must be exhausted by the end of their shift. And they go about these searches with zeal.

    Take my advice, go on vaca in a car, do NOT fly.

            Twenty years ago, I read on an airplane magazine that those plenums over head are filthy and to avoid cold etc. on a flight, keep your air vent closed. I believe it as since then I have not gotten one, but before then, almost every flight.

            The airlines swear they clean them now religiously.

            Hmmmm?

          • Blackbird June 29, 2022 at 6:10 pm #

            I almost always ended up with some kind of respiratory disfunction after flying on an airliner. The freezing temperatures in airports and on the planes undoubtedly played a part. (Getting a “cold”, simply by getting cold, has, since I was a youngster, made me question the viral theory of disease transmission.)

            International travel was the worst. Did you know that in many parts of the world people don’t use deodorant? And those places tend to be hot… A Lufthansa stewardess once rescued me from between a couple of subcontinent stinkers – and moved me up to business class! Lufthansa Uber Alles!

            Forget deodorant, Blackbird. There are people who don’t bathe at all.

            Over the years my wife and I used to rent out the 3 rooms (LR, BR, bathroom) on our third floor… the space presently occupied by Peter. Soooo, one of these tenants was an Egyptian guy. He would come down the steps, pass through our living room and go out the front door. He left a trail of BO that, if you squinted, you could see it… or so I imagined. It was truly horrific.

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

            In the run-up to our cruise departure date we got an email from Viking saying that there was something called ‘veriFLY’ and all the passengers had to test negative on a PCR test within 72 hours of departure. So, with some difficulty, we found a local drugstore that performed these tests which cost us nothing because I think the drug store billed our health insurance company. Departure was 6/18 and we got tested on 6/15.

            The results were supposed to arrive on my wife’s phone within 24 hours but didn’t. She wound up driving to the drug store late on Friday, about 12 hours before departure and it wasn’t till then that we learned that we were both negative. Whew!

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

        We were on a bus tour in Thunder Bay, ON on the final day of the cruise. The tour guide, a 65ish male, was excellent. He did some mental liter to gal conversions and factored in the going price and said they were paying around 10 dollars/gal. Not sure if that was Can dollars or US dollars. If it was Can dollars that would be about $7.80 US.

        Where I live in Central NJ I think we are still under $5/gal.

    A narrative on the efficiency of our federal government.

    HR Block misfiled twice for our 2019 1040 return. The first time cost us money as we added an income source, the second got that money back as they mis IDed a Roth withdrawal as income. Anyway, the net was about $800 in our favor. We finally got notice that they had reviewed the amended return and we would be getting checks in a few days, two days ago.

            Weird video. Couldn’t get through more than about 5 minutes of it. The narrators at that point (~5 min.) seemed… weird. Like they weren’t really speaking the words. And the weird facial expressions every time they finished a (generally poorly-worded) statement.

            Michael Hudson has long said that we need a debt jubilee in order to resurrect the economy. And that jubilee has to be followed by getting rid of usury. I have read that debt forgiveness is part of the Great Reset. Our debt will be forgiven – and all of our possessions will be taken from us to pay for it.

            FYI – That is not the standard delivery. Situation Update has its own narrator (I Believe that her name is Mary) who daily reads Judy Byington’s posts/updates but they also cut to other video clips. The weird thing you saw was a one-off.

            The As We Go 1, We Go All GESARA/NESARA movement claims that there are 2 competing resets afoot:

            Black Hats:
            The Great Reset
            WEF, WHO, Schwab, Gates, Biden, Trudeau, Johnson, Macron, etc
            “You will own nothing and be happy.”

            White Hats:
            Mass arrests and executions of Black Hats
            Debt Jubilee
            Bankster Trillions confiscated and distributed to all mankind
            Trump back in the White House

            Good times!

    They snuck gender identity into it, so it’s no longer sex-based.

    This means women and girls will not be safe from creepy male fetishists & predators dressed in drag. Not in our schools, not in our locker rooms, not on our sports teams, not in our prisons.

      if you are talking to our CFN crew, Mary, I think you are carrying coal to Newcastle.

      This currently socially acceptable behavior is abhorrent to reasonable Everypersons.

      It must be separated from abortion though. Lumping it in is a mistake.

      • MaryQueen June 29, 2022 at 5:41 pm #

        It is actually a separate issue from abortion, and I don’t conflate the two.

        However, if the same people who say abortion is sex-based can’t define what a woman is, that sure is a bit of a conundrum.

    Look at a map of the world with topographic features. Notice that the deserts of the world lay in bands around the world. Australia lies in one of those bands. Our air is transparent, unlike Jupiter’s, but we have belts around Earth too. the wind belts are four in both directions, each reversing the next. Equatorial, west to east, trades, east to west, Westerlies, west to east and polars, east to west.

    The interesting part is the border between the belts, where they rub up against each other.

    Friction. Circles. High wind speeds, commonly known as jet streams.

    Most important, storm tracks. where fresh water gets transported over land. No storm tracks in between the jet streams, no rain, desert. another important adder is when mountains empty out the storms in front of storm shadows.

    Any way, Australia is not in a storm belt and gets little rain. Except on the coast. Look at Africa at the Kalahari desert, same latitude.

    • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 4:10 pm #

      BTW, as warming in the tropics is increasing, and it is, the belts may shift. No one knows what that means yet.

      • SoftStarLight June 29, 2022 at 4:53 pm #

        That’s very interesting John. And another little interesting factoid about the Earth’s atmosphere is that the blue color of the sky we see is due to nitrogen. And most of the atmosphere is actually nitrogen. Maybe only like 20 something percent of the atmosphere is oxygen. But what you are saying about the wind belts makes a lot of sense and yes it is clear that deserts are located in specific zones sorta in the same latitudes. Like the desert southwest is sorta on the same or maybe slightly above the latitudes of North Africa but close enough. And at one time a long time ago in the stone age North Africa was covered in forests and grasslands and lakes and rivers so over a very long time it seems like those belts do definitely shift around.

          There are efforts going on in the Sahara today to green it. Hope they work.

          • Blackbird June 29, 2022 at 6:18 pm #

            I can understand trying to stop the advance of deserts – advance due to anthropogenic abuse of the environment – but trying to turn a sandbox into a garden? Uh uh. The water used to “green” that desert comes from somewhere. Remove it from that cycle and watch another place turn brown as a result.

            Imagine the Sahara as a verdant savannah. (No, you can’t go straight from sand dune to forest.) Is that going to affect weather patterns? Of course it is. How will it affect those patterns? Oh, I’m sure only in a good way…

            Maybe it’s time to quit playing God. Quit destroying the planet. Quit trying to remake it to suit our desires.

          • SoftStarLight June 29, 2022 at 6:23 pm #

            I agree with that too. Just leave it alone. I think there are huge lakes and aquifers beneath the Sahara and that may be the water that they are using? But then like you are suggesting Blackbird that will just end up depleting those water reservoirs.

          • MaryQueen June 29, 2022 at 7:31 pm #

            That makes as much sense to me as when they tried to create farmland out of a prairie, and caused the Dust Bowl, biggest environmental disaster in US history (so far).

          • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 10:08 pm #

            The Sahara is in a rain shadow from the Himalaya, like the Middle East.

            Would greening slowly to allow water to accumulate in local clouds help, I do not know.

          • Redneck Liberal June 29, 2022 at 11:06 pm #

            JohnAZ: “The Sahara is in a rain shadow from the Himalaya, like the Middle East.

            Something about that didn’t seem right as the prevailing weather system in the northern hemisphere is west to eat, meaning the Himalayan Rain Shadow would be east of them.

            “What areas are included in the Himalayas rain shadows?
            The Himalayas lead to rain shadow zones forming in the following areas:
            > The Gobi desert.
            > Some steppes of Mongolia.
            > North-central to north-western China.
            > The Thar desert.

            Ah.

    • Paula D June 30, 2022 at 8:20 pm #

      That is interesting, JohnAZ.
      But as far as reversing the desert, wasn’t the middle east and the Mediterranean including northern Africa forested at one time? Cedars of Lebanon and all that?
      I know that the mountains of Greece were deforested centuries ago. Humans don’t even need chainsaws to wipe out entire forests, as it turns out.
      Same as the east coast of America, back in the day.

          Also that infers all men. I adore a LOT of men!

          And men in general, unless they are violent assholes and of course then I don’t.

          But I call ’em out on an individual basis. Of course I could group a particular batch of men up here who use slurs towards women all the time, who wouldn’t use the N word but are perfectly fine with disparaging terms for women. I mean, it’s even worse.

          Thwack will say the N word, but even he doesn’t say the vile stuff about blacks that you all say about women: Bitch, slut, whore, stupid, harpies, skirts, etc. And those are just the names, not the rhetoric, which is also pretty disgusting.

      Thanks, Crusher. Good point.

      I will add “fabricating and libelous.”

      For the record, I left my wife because, for example, that bossy, scowling woman once said to me, “If I hear, ‘Love, Support and Affection’ one more time, I’m gonna puke!”

      I did not want to spend the rest of my life without Love, Support and Affection and, therefore, had to make drastic changes in my life. It was the only way.

      My gf today, Marina, is amazing in this regard. She is Truly a wonderful woman!

      I love Good women – they are the Best. I am no misogynist while Mary seems to Believe that she is above any criticism whatsoever simply because she is female and plays her misogynist trump card ad naseum.

      I have a Great relationship with both of my adult children (son is 24 and daughter is 20).

      I do take accountability for my many, many errors during my Dark Years (giving my Trust to a woman who did not deserve it) and I beg God for forgiveness each and every day as I now do my very Best to walk His straight-and-narrow path towards His Light.

        It really actually just seems like you are seeking approval. It is obviously very clear that Mary’s opinion of you is the most important thing as it is something that you unceasingly talk about without fail. ALL THE TIME. That means you either are not telling the truth. Or Mary is your ex or something and ya’ll are using this platform to argue back in forth. That actually makes a lot more sense.

      OG

      I will not let an mRNA needle within ten feet of me.

      I have posted all along my learning process about the vaxx.

      Totally misrepresented by the mRNA tech folks. Their models of what happens in the muscle are bogus because it leaks into the bloodstream in too large of quantity to be safe. The blood enriched muscles of athletes may be a problem here.

      The second thing is the s protein. In hindsight, to me, it seems obvious now. Simply put, if the s protein is what erroneous fires off the immune system and causes pneumonia and blood clots from the virus itself, then we should not be surprised by injected induced s proteins should not do the same thing, additively. The key here is that leakage of the s protein into the blood stream from the vaxx is the guilty party. The medical science model is a dud. Inflammation results anywhere the s protein settles in. Inflammation causes myocarditis, CAD, MIs, kidney disease, IBS, liver disease, and most deadly, nervous disease. The additive effect of the disease and the shots makes risk assessment easy, stay away from the vaxx and try to avoid the virus.

      BTW, IMHO, the great die off the vaxx zealots want to see is probably not going to happen. Why? Because most people will clear the proteins before much damage is done.

      Me personally, I believe the vaxx has given me allergies which I have never had before. My daughter is getting checked out for rheumatic arthritis now with no family history. Autoimmune disorders will be a significant side effect of the vaxx, IMHO.

      The latest item I have seen is that long term Covid may be the result of the virus, or IMHO, s proteins setting up camp in the intestines and continuously setting up inflammatory responses over time. Continuing to take the vaxx is just going to increase the chance of firing up an s protein response, which is a totally individual situation.

      MRNA, forget it. But-

      It is the choice of the s protein as the immune response antigen that is the culprit, again, IMHO. Novavax is developing a vaccine, correct word, comprised of dead other viral protein, like the flu shot. I do not know where it is in development, but I hope it works, is tested well, and becomes the “flu” shot for Covid.

      I would like to see a legitimate ongoing comparison between flu and Covid incidence and deaths. Do not think it will happen because the government will lose a power hold over us.

      Latest data, today, is that the FDA is asking for updated vaxxes fron Pfizer and Moderna because the current ones are worthless.

      Surprise, the virus is “smarter” than we are.

      • Oscar Gordon Hawkins June 29, 2022 at 6:14 pm #

        Thank you, JAZ. Your medical knowledge and experience is Greatly appreciated!

        So … if you know all of the above, surely the WHO, FDA and CDC know all of the above … yet they are jabbing this mRNA shit into every infant and toddler that they can!

        Can there be any possible explanation for this behaviour other than EVIL?

        • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 6:45 pm #

          Oh Ho, OG!

          Depends on your definition of evil.

          Mine is the arrogant SOBs comprising the WEF. Their domination of the WHO, and the CDC here in the States is why the corruption that happened did. The public is still almost totally uniformed about the effects of the vaxx and the virus itself. They still think boosters are going to protect them, when the vaxx now shows little effect against r4and 5 of Omicron. Just as the WEF operates, as in James Bond, “in the shadows”, it wants its disease machinations in the world on a QT basis.

          That is why even now almost no “official” data or even studies have been done.

          All the better to sow fear with, my dear.

            Organizations are charts on a wall. The evil exists in the people comprising the organizations.

            Right now, I would rate the PTB that try to run our lives now an 11 on an evil scale of ten. Not just the medical ones either.

        You are nearly there, John.

        Once you accept the fact that there is no test for Covid, you can accept that the entire hoax was created via the McMedia and the institutions who gamed the stats in order to force the shot, which teaches your body to make the toxic spike protein developed by Ralph Baric and co.

        The shot is the virus.

        • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 7:02 pm #

          The test is inconsequential to understand Covid and its course through recent history.

          Ten years ago, we had a flu test that we gave to older patients with serious symptoms. Positive meant airborne isolation.

          Think about that, airborne isolation for the flu.

          Ten years ago.

          Remember the arguments about Covid, whether it was airborne. Whatever was making people sick in 2020 was much more contagious than the flu, yet we were arguing whether it was airborne. And the disease just spread.

          Is it a cold, is it the flu or is it Covid?

          Who cares, the patient needs respiratory therapy to stay alive.

          For all but an infinitesimal group, that means “feed a cold, starve a flu” or vice versa. IOW, bed rest, chicken soup and antihistamine decongestants.

          If I caught a cold, or the flu, I would do a supposed Covid test out of curiosity, then isolate myself no matter what it said. Treat the symptoms, like any other virus.

          This spring allergies, my first, brought on post nasal drip and ethmoid sinusitis which gave me coughing spasms. What the infectious source was, I have no idea. Could be a bacterial ear infection, or Covid, I did not care. Treated it, left a low grade fever alone, used Flonase for the allergy and a decongestant. Six days later, it subsided and two weeks was gone. I tested for Covid, negative. Made no difference.

          The shot is the virus?

          IMHO, the virus is s protein as far as our immune system “thinks”,

          So is the shot! Nuff’ said.

        JAZ, what’s your opinion on the J &J
        “vax”

        • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 7:12 pm #

          It is not an mRNA, but uses another non reproducing virus as the antigen to fire up the immune response.

          It is considered more dangerous than the mRNA vaxxes due to abnormal clotting in a significant number of cases.

          It is considered useful when Pfizer or Moderna have severe effects.

          Not indicated as booster for same reason.

          Only 66% efficacy against Covid infection but showed lower incidence of hospitalization or death.

          • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 10:00 pm #

            Not my opinion, from the drug description.

          • Night Owl June 30, 2022 at 7:05 am #

            It is the deadliest of the available options, and generated too much bad press.

            Many Moderna lots are also particularly bad, but Moderna and Pfizer seem to require more shots over time to maim and kill.

        Succinct, JohnAZ.

        What I found really dismaying, but had never occurred to me, is that any blood bank is now suspect, potentially a source of peril, unless those running it are able to rid the blood 100% of said s protein. Is that a correct conclusion to reach?

        Recall how during the early part of the AIDS panic, biker clubs were setting up their own private blood banks, “for members only”, as there had been cases of HIV infection from transfusions. The very first case to be diagnosed in Sandi Arabia was reportedly the product of a transfusion.

        [OBSOLETE JOKE ALERT]:

        “What is the best way to explain to your parents how you got AIDS?”

        “Try to convince them that you’re a Haitian.”

        • JohnAZ June 30, 2022 at 6:25 pm #

          Good observation. I do not have a clue if the s protein could be in the blood supply.

          Sounds like a good project for someone to explore.

          BTW, the AIDS virus got deeply into the blood supply before it was discovered and just about wiped out the hemophilia population.

    Just a reminder. The Biden Mob is integral to the Ukrainian corruption. They have lots of skin in the game.

    / can you give me some facts? details?

    • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 9:52 pm #

      Watch a full timeline on you tube of the Ukraine by Glen Beck as not just the Biden’s but the entire Obama mod infiltrated Ukraine to build financial empires and increase the anti-Russia sentiment in the country. It delves deeply into the Obama WH, and Biden was the leader appointed by Obama. Graft in spades and all documented.

      Ukraine scandal explained chalkboard on DNC collusion, Joe Biden. Etc. 2 yrs ago.on you tube.

      Watch it all, it is documented.

      • JohnAZ June 29, 2022 at 9:59 pm #

        And remember Trump’s second impeachment, the perfect coverup for what Hunter and Dad were doing. Joe even stated he blackmailed the Ukrainian investigator to stop the investigation of what Beck is talking about, it is on video tape.

        So far, the DOJ is blocking all investigation of the collusion because Biden Garland run the show.

        2022 becomes a Red sweep in Congress, it will all come out in Biden’s impeachment.

        The GOP will go after him in spades, they learned it from the Democrats.

        What goes around, comes around.

        • Redneck Liberal June 29, 2022 at 10:50 pm #

          Do you handily forget the Benghazi Hearing of those rabid GOPers led by Trae (?) Gowdy.

          It was a political stunt – 10 hearings and got nowhere, except what they actually wanted. To quote John McCarthy on Hannity in 2015:
          “In a September 29, 2015, Fox TV interview with Sean Hannity, Kevin McCarthy, then in the running for Speaker of the House, said, “Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we put together a Benghazi special committee, a select committee. What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping. Why? Because she’s untrustable. But no one would have known any of that had happened, had we not fought.”[35]

          So, it’s all a bit too “pot meet kettle”, surely JohnAZ.

          • BackRowHeckler June 29, 2022 at 11:10 pm #

            Unfortunately, these Congressional Hearings are becoming standard practice, with the Party “in power” investigating the Party that used to be in power — just a few years ago. Impeachment, too, has become a political tool, starting with the stupid impeachment of Clinton in the 90s. All this doesn’t bode well for the future of the Republic.

          • Night Owl June 30, 2022 at 7:01 am #

            At least they caught Clinton in the act of defiling the office of the president.

            With Trump, they have yet to find anything, despite some 6+ years of throwing every resource they have available at it.

            LOL.

          • CrusherMuldoon June 30, 2022 at 9:14 am #

            And as a result of being vindicated as a result of those fake hearings, Hillary Clinton won the presidency by how many electoral votes?

          • JohnAZ June 30, 2022 at 11:13 am #

            You still do not get it, Redneck.

            The Deep State is the villain. Both parties at the federal level are guilty as hell. Right now, the DS is leaning left because of the success of the Democrats in leaning it that direction. The goals of the Deep State may be prioritized by the predominant party, but its end goal is the same, sustaining its power over the lower forms of government and consequently the people.

            Why was Trump attacked broadly, even by the RINOS? Because he was against the dominance of the Deep State. I wish he had run as a legitimate third party candidate with his base as its core. My guess is the GOP gave him whatever he wanted to prevent him from doing just that. If Trump had jumped ship, the GOP would have died in 2016 and 2020.

            So in your vernacular, pot doesn’t meet kettle, pot IS kettle.

            A better question for you might be,

            Why did Comey, the bought and paid for Dem shill, come out with his information against Hillary ten days before the election? What had the FBI discovered that scared him? Are we hearing about all of it now?

            You have always criticized the GOP dirty hands, better look at your own party’s contribution to the Deep State and realize they are about to take away all the FF rights that you were born with. It is the foundation of today’s Democratic Party, the subordination of the American institutions and people in preparation for the New World Order. Do not waste your time trying to deny it. The Davos crowd have already announced their intentions.

    ” But yeah dunno for sure how it is going to work out. ( for this Maxwell person ) ”

    — SoftStarLight

    A few months back I read a biography of Whitey Bulger.

    But the book ended with his eventual capture .

    I wanted to hear the rest of the story , so I went to Wikipedia.

    He , now 80 – something and in a wheelchair , was beaten to death his very first day in a maximum security prison.

    Not that I feel sorry for the guy , but so much for , ” Maximum Security ” .

    ” Maximum security ” apparently only works one way.

    Anyway , I suspect it is no coincidence that I never heard about that.

    Things are big news , until they aren’t big news , and then what you hear , see , and read is NOTHING.

    ( except for Wikipedia footnotes that nobody reads , of course. )

    JUST LIKE THE SOVIET UNION ,

    All sorts of thinks happen in America , and every day , but you NEVER hear about them.

    What’s in the newspapers is actually very very very little.

    So the ” News” is more like a Hollywood movie set , scarcely in any way a reflection of what’s right outside the nearest window.

    ” Already planning for your life of incarceration Ms. StarLight? ”

    — Blackbird

    Given things like the above , and things like in America EVERYBODY loves , ” Get tough on crime ” , and NOBODY seems ever to imagine that’s a sword that could be used against you , every bit as much as for you ,

    I don’t think much about the future. Indeed , I try not to.

    Pretty much the sum total of my future thinking amounts to —

    — I’m glad that I lived when I did.

    — I’m glad I’m 56 years old , and not 6 years old , or 16 years old.

      One comment Kesa Anna.

      At a point is our past, the judicial system changed.

      Trials became a contest between two lawyers for prestige, rather than a process to discover truth about innocence or guilt. With the Soros led attack on the DAs office, nationwide, the swamp has become even more muddied. The battle has become sorta really stupid recently.

      Right now, the current policies of the DAs are producing a crime wave. Repeat offenses occur too often.

      Brazil has done something interesting, according to Tucker’s report, he is there. To contest a crime wave there, they have encouraged people to get a self defense gun. It seems to be working!

    • SoftStarLight June 30, 2022 at 1:14 pm #

      That is a great point Kesa about the whole tough on crime thing. I do see how the police and law enforcement could easily be used as a weapon against the population rather than as a service. It is similar to how the whole national security/anti-terrorism apparatus of the government has been turned inward to now target citizens rather than foreign nationals as it was originally supposed to do. The current regime has actually announced that the most dangerous threat to national security are domestic citizens who disagree with the regime.

  111. KesaAnna June 30, 2022 at 3:47 am #

    Warming to the topic ,

    I imagine that if I had a time machine and could go back to 1876 , I might do better instead to go to Colonel Custer and — try — to explain to him that he is wasting his time with the eager – beaver shit.

    The Indians are beaten regardless of what his column does , or doesn’t do.

    If it is glory and his name in the newspapers he is after , then sorry to tell him that it turns out the luck of JEB Stuart and Stonewall Jackson wasn’t bad after all.

    For you , like for them , their glory days are behind them , not in front of them.

    Notice all those great Confederate Generals who did survive the war ;

    Already it is ; Whatever happened to so – and – so ?

    In your case , specifically , Custer , the good news is that for the next hundred years you will be presented as an American martyr.

    But then things will change , and then your own people , the very people who have most benefited from your efforts , will call you an asshole and / or a retard for the trouble you went to.

    Eh , I don’t encourage anyone to become a history buff.

    It’s a depressing hobby for anyone except a fanatic.

      I’m perplexed as to why the current crop of cultural revolutionaries on the extreme left want to remove Abe Lincoln from history. For one. I can sorta understand you though in terms of how history in general is depressing. I don’t know if you ever watched the Sopranos, I did but not religiously, and there was an episode where Tony Sopranos’ wife Carmela was in Rome with a friend for vacation and they were at maybe the Coliseum or something and she was looking out at everything and started crying and said something to the effect that it was so sad because so many people had lived and loved where they were standing and their lives are now like ruins. I actually started crying a little during that scene because I totally connected with what she was saying. And then her friend said something sorta trivial to try and cheer her up and basically said let’s go shopping.

      Not surprising, and this is actual data.

      Now, what is next?

      How about separating two things, if the s protein stays in place instead of being eaten by the immune system cells, Why?!?

      VERY IMPORTANT, because it would point at ways to clobber the virus itself, and clean out the residuals probably causing long term covid, in the intestine as the latest data may indicate.

      Two things

      One How did the s protein get into the body tissue (heart) in the first place? Weren’t the s proteins supposed to be limited to the injected muscle tissue, just like mRNA? My suggested pathway is sloppy injection procedure where the vaxx is directly injected into an arteriole or venule. If so, this could explain why athletes have a propensity for trouble as their muscles have more blood circulation.
      Or, IM injection, or any injection may not limit the insertion of the mRNA enough to fit the safety model.

      Two Assume the s proteins spread all over. Inflammation caused by immune response is systemic. Why does the body not just clean it up in a couple of weeks? How do they “hide”? The model says, mRNA and s proteins should be gone in a few weeks from the muscle or at most neighboring lymph nodes. Really? Does not seem to work that way, does it? Another concern has been expressed that using mRNA may produce cellular changes that can perpetuate s protein production, maybe permanently. Third, does the mRNA s protein combination change the immune system? Does autoimmunity occur as a result? As I have mentioned, I have seem two potential indicators, personally, that this may be occurring.

      Any of these three possibilities should stop the use of the vaxx, which in today’s political situation, research by the government will never happen. Private work will have to be done, and it will be fought all the way. Death should not be the sole indicator of the potential evil of the vaxx as these effects are long term and untested.

          How about a government grasping at straws, facing an election, buying in on the promises of an mRNA technology to produce the magic bullet for the Covid, ignoring the arguments of cautionary folks, Trump et al signing off on sped up testing then not listening when danger signals came in, or having the data edited before presentation.

          Data,

          Crap in crap out.

    140 mile an hour chase.
    14 year old crashes car, black life didnt matter.

    police chase ended tragically Thursday when the suspect car, driven by a 14-year-old boy, slammed into a house killing a woman inside.

    Around 2 a.m., a Coweta County deputy was patrolling the area of Highway 54 and Johnson Road when a car failed to dim its headlights, the sheriff’s office said.

    The deputy turned around and tried to initiate a traffic stop. The suspect vehicle continued driving — reaching speeds over 130 miles per hour, they said.

    The deputy lost sight of the vehicle but eventually located it crashed into a home along the 900 block of Johnson Road in Coweta County.

          Interesting that you should idolize a maniac like that character that Bogie played so well. Wouldn’t have wanted to be in the thick of battle, or caught in an intensifying typhoon, with a tyrant like him. He would have lost his ship out of stubborn, erratic vindictiveness.

          That’s why some very clever folk came up with CRM. After a number of large, expensive aircraft went smack into the planet, however, on account of a single pilot’s glaring error.

          Would have saved a large mess on the runway at Tenerife, had the willful KLM Captain Jacob van Zanten listened to the doubts of his First Officer, and not barged off into the blank mist. Ended up ducking the fog.

      Now that she has admitted that she was a racist she should be tarred and feathered in the public square and spat upon lol. I tend to think this is not organic behavior. Much of this is planned and discussed and launched in order to set the cultural tone and pace. There are people who literally look at really old movies to find “racist” content to ban. It is a full scale industry and there are people making big bank on all of this. A recession or depression would therefore be a really good thing. Let it crash!

        “Stop homophobia. OPEN YOUR MOUTH”

        This kind of messaging is hilarious. For a large number of these people, their sexual orientation is their entire identity, and it is all they think about.

        I can’t imagine a life so empty, but perhaps that is what happens when one can’t procreate and has no complex thoughts that would lead one to develop interesting hobbies and pursuits that involve self improvement or positive change in the world.

    My reticence about the early days of the vaxx stemmed from the fact that the Docs sending out info about the threats were hypothesizing just as much as I am doing now. They had no hard data, there were conflicts between them and the PTB of mRNA technology. Lots of doubts going on at the time. Basically, who you trusted, you believed. I chose to believe that the risk factors, of that very scary time warranted the use of the vaxx.

    Well, as you have noted, no longer. The consequent work of independent sources has made it logical to be what may be making the Vaxx toxic, the s protein. Once accepted, the potential damage that protein may be causing accumulatively is obvious.

    Seems to me, the CDC, FDA testing should have included information of s protein population or even of its presence in the blood stream. Who is liable here? A huge coverup developing up to today? Trump and Fauci? Biden and Fauci? The entire Deep State in DC? I will tell you one thing, medical science has a huge black eye right now which is going to affect every doctor visit in the future.

    • Night Owl June 30, 2022 at 5:14 pm #

      Not sure what you expect me to say at this point, John.

      To me, the initial story starting in Wuhan was comedy from the moment those videos of people dying mid-run aired around the world.

      The non-functional PCR test, was ofc the dead give-away, along with the openly manipulated data involving deaths with comorbidities.

      Then we had the abuser tactics of locking people down; threatening people with job loss, astronomical fines, and quarantine camps; giving them bizarre MK Ultra-style orders like Jacinda Ardern’s classic command, “Don’t look at the sun”; and the pathological (but coordinated and planned) campaign of obvious lies.

      Then there was the endless propaganda for not just the shots, but the advanced steps taken to normalize the side effects — like posters warning parents that kids get heart attacks, too.

      Many of these sorts of things don’t happen even singularly when the core of the story being told is true, never mind all of them happening over a period of years.

      That so few people seem to have any ability to reason is about the only thing that has shocked me. There were so many steps along the way, but some are too fearful, too prideful to admit being conned, or just utterly fucking stupid.

      • JohnAZ June 30, 2022 at 6:33 pm #

        Yes, nothing expected, nothing to add.

          It took them 100 years to make the western world 100% reliant on their shitty drugs and vaccines, and to criminalize or otherwise shut down anyone who threatened their profits.

          Everyone is obviously less healthy (or dead) as a result.

          It all came to me watching two documentaries: Fauci’s First Fraud, and then one about cancer that revealed how during the past 100 years the medical industrial complex has knocked out any competition.

          • GreenAlba June 30, 2022 at 9:41 pm #

    The comment count at this moment is 1,067 in the current thread. All those comments have accumulated in approx 3 days and 2 hrs.

    I speculate that our host likes seeing numbers like these since there is probably a way to monetize high comment numbers vs low numbers. As such I believe this may explain why he tolerates the endless back-and-forth squabbling between OG and MaryQueen.

    It’s just a guess but I’d estimate these two people account for about a third of the 1067 comments. It DOES get old and annoying.

      That would be 356 comments but as it turns out my estimate is way too high. The sum of their comments is only 186 and prolly some of those are comments with substance and not just back-and-forth squabbling.

      So, my apologies to MQ and OGH. Carry on your entertaining spat.

    The Mother of the Men’s Rights Movement

    Wiki

    Erin Patria Margaret Pizzey (/?p?tsi/;[2] born 19 February 1939) is an English ex-feminist and men’s rights advocate, domestic abuse advocate, and novelist.[3][4][5][6][7] She is known for having started the first and currently the largest domestic violence shelter in the modern world, Refuge, then known as Chiswick Women’s Aid, in 1971.[8][1][9]

    Pizzey has been the subject of bomb threats and boycotts because her experience and research into the issue led her to conclude that most domestic violence is reciprocal, and that women are equally as capable of violence as men. These threats eventually led to her exile from the UK.[10][11] Pizzey has said that the threats were from militant feminists.[12][13][14] She has also stated that she is banned from the refuge she started.[15][16]

    Haven House[17] in California, founded in 1964, is often cited as the first women’s refuge (called women’s shelters in Canada and the U.S.) in the modern world, but at the time of their founding, they only worked to help the mentally ill transition from committed life in a hospital to life in the outside world. By contrast, the refuge started by Erin Pizzey was focused on removing victims of domestic abuse from their abusers, in an attempt to break the cycle.

    Jarek: Ideas have natural consequences. Given that women abuse their male partners almost as much as men abuse women, Pizzey naturally decided that they needed their own shelters just like the women. What decent person wouldn’t think that once they knew the truth? Well the world isn’t decent and refused to go along with this – and of course the media refused to let the world know about feminine abuse of men. Women were the victims. Period.

    A few people since have come to understand the situation. They report being stonewalled in their attempts to move forward, and even receiving calls from high level people saying, We want to keep this as a woman’s issue. Ditto rape needless to say.

    You can see Pizzey still alive and kicking in the documentary, The Red Pill, available on youtube. She says the Feminist Movement is a gigantic lie. What a magnificent person, one who chose the Truth over comfort, despite blacklisting and death threats from the Radical Feminists.

      Very interesting! I hadn’t heard about her or her efforts. I don’t understand what the big opposition to men’s rights are. Once one group doesn’t have rights to me it seems that no ones rights are really safe. Everything changes so once a different faction comes to power then rights can be taken away from a different group or from everybody based on the precedent set.

      • Jarek June 30, 2022 at 2:10 pm #

        Thank you for your consideration. That’s all that we ask. As St Augustine said, the Truth doesn’t need to be defended. It’s like a Lion. Let it loose and it will defend itself.

        So they lock the Lion up. We seek to free Him before they sacrifice Him on their altar of lies as they did to Aslan. But even if we fail, He will rise again – but in another civilization, since this one will die if He dies.

    Supreme Court

    1. Took power from the federal government and gave it back to gun owners.

    2. Took power on abortion from the federal government and gave it to the states.

    3. Took power from the executive branch, EPA, and put the responsibility on Congress for pollution control, the Congress supposedly representing the people.

    4. Gave Biden administration the okay to discontinue the Stay in Mexico restriction Trump installed. A victory for open border folks. Took potential power from the states and retained it with the federal government.

    3 of 4 took power from the Feds. Good!

  123. JohnAZ June 30, 2022 at 3:06 pm #

    Three more

    The Supremes,

    5. Told states they could not block funds to religious schools that are given to other private schools.

    6. Took power from the Feds that they cannot force employers in the private sector to enforce federal vaxx mandates, a big one to prevent Big Brother surveillance.

    7. However, retained the Federal ability to have vaccine mandates on medical workers in hospitals using Medicare, Medicaid services.

    So 4 of 7 reduce the power of the Feds Good.

    From Reiner Fuellmich:

    Dr. Zev Zeleno has died
    June 30th 2022

    “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Vladimir “Zev” Zelenko. Dr. Zelenko was a physician, scientist, and medical rights activist who touched the lives of millions.

    Over the past year and a half, Zev has been an outspoken critic of the mRNA vaccine, pointing out both its serious side effects and the possible alteration of the genetic code. He was particularly critical of the vaccine’s use in children who are not yet old enough to give their own informed consent and who are at virtually no risk of severe disease from covid-19.

    We thank Dr. Zelenko for all he has done to provide an honest assessment of the situation and extend our sincere condolences to his family.”

    Dr. Zelenko saved thousands of people and I saw many of his interviews. He was a great man.

    • GreenAlba June 30, 2022 at 6:59 pm #

      Oh, that’s really sad, Mary. Thanks for posting. I knew he had terminal cancer. He was indeed a great and humane man. The ghouls will no doubt be celebrating. There was apparently a credible threat to his life (and the lives of other outspoken doctors) from Pfizer – intimated to him by an intelligence insider – so that will save them a job.

      He was working on documenting treatments to help the ‘vaccinated’ and said he would leave that behind him.

      I’ve just been listening to an interview from earlier this month with Greg Hunter and Pierre Kory, who has a book coming out in September on the story of the war on Ivermectin. He is also working on protocols for treating those who have chronic illnesses from the vaxxes, which are available on the FLCCC site.

      So far there’s nothing for the currently well (vaxxed) who don’t know if they’re at risk of heart attacks and so on, but Ivermectin seems to help those who have chronic post-vaxx symptoms as it binds to the spike proteins.

      • MaryQueen June 30, 2022 at 7:11 pm #

        Thanks for all that info, GA. I have not been keeping up with the covid stuff as much as I was only because around here, it doesn’t appear that anyone is still buying that there’s any sort of pandemic. Just a few OCD victims in masks (lots of psychological damage done of course).

        Pierre Kory is great, I have not heard of Greg Hunter. I have seen that ivermectin did a lot of good. My take after hearing a lot of doctors & scientists like Zelenko was that the key was early treatment and if you notice, that was frowned upon since the hoax began. They wanted people to do nothing except douse themselves in chemicals and suffocate in masks until they were too far gone, then finish them off on ventilators.

        It still saddens and angers me that no one yet has seen any accountability, or liability.

        • GreenAlba June 30, 2022 at 8:14 pm #

          Re accountability, what led me to the interview with Kory was an interview Greg Hunter was doing with David Martin, who has some corona lawsuits going in Utah – something significant happening on 6 July.

          His evidence is utterly damning, in relation to Pfizer, Moderna and J&J. Unfortunately AZ never gets a mention in the US because it wasn’t approved there, and in the UK there’s nothing much happening, legally speaking, as far as I can see.

          usawatchdog.com/up-to-700-million-worldwide-will-die-from-cv19-vax-by-2028-dr-david-martin/

          Karen Kingston also had some really explosive stuff on Pfizer on the latest CIC session. If it got into any proper (clean) court, they’d be finished for good. If fraud is proved, their immunity goes out the window and you’re talking millions for each damages case. If only …

          I still pay attention – there are Bills going through Parliament here that are going to complete our transformation into a totalitarian dictatorship, and it will be impossible to talk about any of this stuff online. The Police, Crimes, Courts and Sentencing Act has just come into effect. In addition to making demonstrations (even static ones) almost impossible, there’s provision for a 10-year jail sentence for behaviour that ‘risks spreading disease’, so woe betide anyone demonstrating during a future lockdown.

          And they’re pointing out just now that both a new covid variant and polio are going to coincide with the flu season, so they’re getting us prepared for more of the same, I think, but with more draconian police powers, Australian style probably.

            Add to that, they want climate lockdowns.

            So yes it’s dire. Wow I am so sorry to hear what they are pushing through Parliament. People better start using the courts as much as humanly possible. We’ve seen that getting in the streets does nothing.

  127. tucsonspur June 30, 2022 at 6:39 pm #

    There you have it. Roberts and Kavanaugh side with the liberal minority and go against ‘remain in Mexico’, further illustrating that the border is not really out of control, but actually under the firm control of the Left until the demographics of the US drown the ‘deplorables’ in a dark sea of diversity.

    ‘Which is also to say: maybe the time of smashing boundaries is over. As that scaffold of techno-industrial comfort and safety disintegrates, and all the dazzling promises of becoming transhuman dissolve — sorry, Klaus Schwab — we will likely have to settle for being human again, and in the best way, not the worst way. That includes a certain reverence for our nature and for each other. That suggests not killing children.’ JHK

    I agree with the first few sentences Jim but think that the last is inaccurate and inflammatory if you are referring to abortion. A fetus is not yet a child. And in contrast to certain comments above, the Feds are not out of the abortion issue but still deeply involved by having suppressed a woman’s right to decide what’s best for herself. The Fed can’t wash their hands here. Federal or state, it’s still government control over the individual, and more intimately, over a woman’s uterus.

    Ayn Rand on abortion:

    ‘Never mind the vicious nonsense of claiming that an embryo has a “right to life.” A piece of protoplasm has no rights — and no life in the human sense of the term. One may argue about the later stages of a pregnancy, but the essential issue concerns only the first three months. To equate a potential with an actual, is vicious; to advocate the sacrifice of the latter to the former, is unspeakable.’

    Yes, these troubled times are making me more ‘Randian’ by the day. Don’t like it? Tough for you, get over it.

    Jim has consistently rung the alarm bells on ever diminishing resources such as gas and oil, yet there seems to be an aversion to alternatives here, to just go full speed ahead like Sarah Palin and ‘Drill, Baby, Drill’! I’m not a proponent of this Green New Deal stuff as it stands now, but when, in light of Jim’s ceaseless and necessary warnings, do we unchain ourselves from fossil fuels? When the Black Lagoons run dry?

    Another thing in the midst of this blog fog. The world’s population is near unsustainability, if not already there, so propagandizing abortion as some horrific evil is more deluded than ever. Too few children? I was just at a Walmart and the mall and a Safeway recently, and the kids were either in carriages or bouncing off the walls.

    Most health insurance companies cover vasectomies with not much objection from Republicans. When it comes to abortion however, it’s a different story, cut funding to Medicaid, Planned Parenthood, etc.

    Recently, Tucker blamed the Dems for the sad state of our economy as if Republicans had no hand in it whatsoever. Remember what happened at the end of the Bush years, 2008, when Bush signed the TARP bill making $350 billion immediately available with more possible in the future to bail out the banks, and it’s gotten worse ever since. Those were the wild Bush years of Wall Street and banking, and one could argue that we’ve never gotten over them. QE forever.

    Jim mentions Klaus Schwab. I’ll mention the Republican former head of GE Jack Welch, who was first and foremost in transforming American corporations into what they are today, strictly adhering to the Friedman belief that ‘the social responsibility of business was to increase its profits’. Greed became good. Fire workers, move plants overseas, poison the air, etc., all in the name of shareholders. Welch was Davos man in the making.

    Clinton signed NAFTA, did away with Glass-Steagall, so there’s enough blame to go around. Both Obama and Trump increased the debt considerably, but Obama did it over eight.

    Dinocars still guzzle from the Black Lagoons
    Gulping them down ’till the last teaspoon
    Drinking dead life
    Formed eons ago
    Amps and volts
    Now ebbing the flow

          Uh, not so fast.

          Abortion, will never be solved. 50-50 split right now on abortion itself. Nor so much on fifteen were limited abortions, for example. They have to have it all, to the point in California of putting an unwanted baby on the shelf without trying to wake it and just letting it die. Anywhere, that is murder.

          A piece of protoplasm, huh? A piece of protoplasm that has the Creator’s DNA in it and is capable of making a child and then adult. Not just a piece of protoplasm.

          You mention Jack Welch with Klaus Schwab, how many times has Welch come out and said that his goal is world domination? Schwab has finally unveiled WEF as the latest Quantum, the latest SPECTRE, as the organization to control the West, then the world. Watched Tucker tonight in Brazil, talking about BRICS, an arch enemy of WEF.
          That is Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa together in economic cooperation. Guess who asked yesterday to join BRICS?

          Iran! Better figure out a better foreign policy hero. Paraphrasing Satchel, Paige, don’t look back, BRICS is catching up.

          You are right on the end result of Peak Oil. I have been reading JHK since 2008. Reading The Long Emergency the first time scared the heck out of me. My problem is not the loss of oil, it is the lack of alternatives available. Lots of noise, lots of politics, lots of activity and what do we have, little change, very limited EV availability or affordability, very little change to electrical generation. The way we are going the result for our grandchildren is going to be World Made by Hand. None of the technology or the politics it supports is heading us toward an answer.
          Solar, wind, EVs, geo thermal etc, still solving less than fifteen percent of the energy requirements. 85% is a long long way to go.
          You want a solution, learn how to burn coal with no pollution and bury the CO2. Probably easier than the 85%.

          Nobody in the Deep State cares one iota about the debt. No one has put the brakes on spending, no one. The debt will be settled when the creditors come looking for their cash. I heard Biden today criticizing Russia for defaulting on their debt, giving himself credit for the sanctions. Hahahahahaha! Wait until our creditors want their cash, all $31 trillion. BTW, you are right about both Bushes, the most Liberal free spending RINOs ever, One of the best things Trump did was break down the Bush dynasty and make GOP more conservative.

          You do not like Trump because of some of the narcissistic things he does and is. I will simply ask you if the last eighteen months justified putting Biden in office. Should the US have put in the Progressive, GND agenda to simply get rid of Trump.

          I will guarantee you, BRICS and many other world leader are ecstatic the American people pu the Bozo into office.

            A person, a family, a business, a city, and a state can go bankrupt. A sovereign national government with its own currency and a central bank cannot theoretically go bankrupt. The U.S. federal govt can retire its debt obligations till the sun goes supernova. Sorry old school Conservatives, It’s a fact.

    From two conservative news sites:

    The Washington Examiner slammed Trump in an editorial on Wednesday, calling him a “disgrace.”

    A National Review columnist wrote that Trump “willfully exacerbated the problem” on January 6.

    The pieces came following Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony on Trump’s behavior before the Capitol riot.

    Two prominent conservative news sites have published columns or editorials speaking out against former President Donald Trump, with one calling him “unfit for power” and the other saying he “willfully exacerbated the problem” on January 6, 2021.

    The pieces came after Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, testified during a surprise hearing on Tuesday about the former president’s behavior in the days leading up to and during the Capitol riot.

    Reaction to Hutchinson’s testimony, the Washington Examiner published an editorial Wednesday stating that Trump is “unfit to be anywhere near power again” and called him a “disgrace.” It also urged Republican voters not to support him in the 2024 presidential elections.

    Meanwhile, the National Review’s Andrew C. McCarthy published a column analyzing Hutchinson’s testimony, writing that “things will not be the same after this.”

    “And Trump, who had tweeted that his supporters should come for a ‘wild’ time in Washington, manifestly knew things might get real, real bad,” McCarthy wrote. “Instead of trying to stop it, he willfully exacerbated the problem — and would apparently have made it worse still if the Secret Service had not been courageously insubordinate.”

    It’s all lies right, all a conspiracy against Trump right, they’re all out to get us right? OMFG, Lord have mercy please!

    Trump ist tot. Fertig. Kaput. HaHaHa! The king is dead. Long live the king!

    • JohnAZ June 30, 2022 at 10:03 pm #

      Cassidy Hutchinson, if you listen to the Selective Service, is a LIAR, period.

      Cheney trying to get protection for the witnesses by trying to get judicial action against counter witnesses.

      Where is the counter witnesses? Where is Trump, facing his accusers? The last four years of action against one man, one man by the Deep State is simply stupefying. Not one conviction, not one. Even the NY Side judges are starting to back off.

      So this kangaroo court in DC is the last gasp. Every single political enemy, the core of the Deep State, has their weapons out now to shoot the man down. I cannot even guess whether the Deep State Dems and RINOs will be successful, but I will say that they still fear him immensely. That puts him in my court.

      Any bets on whether Biden’s Mob will celebrate July 4?

      • BackRowHeckler June 30, 2022 at 10:17 pm #

        Yes, no cross examination of witnesses, witnesses coached on what to say for maximum effect, and the entire production choreographed by a Director from ABC television. Certainly not quite as egregious as the Soviet Show Trials 1936-1939 (which many observers in the US thought were legit, including the NYTs) but a kangaroo court nonetheless. Good thing then that nobody is really taking the whole charade very seriously, except perhaps political and media scum that inhabit the NYC/DC swamp — who pull their heads out of their ass and look around only when they hear the name Donald Trump.

      Slur,

      Right after Trump grabbed the wheel of the Beast, punching through the security glass and into the secure cabin, I heard he drove straight to my old ice cream shop in NE before heading to The Insurrection.

      Word is he got two scoops for himself, and just one for the SS agents.

      Good to see you doubling down Redneck style; this gives me even more material with which to mock you.

    Just saw that Sonny Barger died…83 years old. My house in Oakland was less than 2 miles from his…never met him, as he was constantly in prison in the years I was there.

    Met lots of is buddies, however.

          Sonny was the real deal. Hunter Thompson had quite a lot to say about Sonny Barger in his landmark book about the Hells Angels.

    “These days, this place on the planet that used to be a nation groans under a tribulation of bad ideas, bad choices, bad conduct, bad management, and bad faith.”

    Too much education IMHO.

    A planet is a large astronomical body that is neither a star nor a stellar remnant. At least eight planets exist in the Solar System: the terrestrial planets Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars, and the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The word probably comes from the Greek plan?tai, meaning “wanderers”, which in antiquity referred to the Sun, Moon, and five bodies visible

    Wandering stars

    ” For a large number of these people, their sexual orientation is their entire identity, and it is all they think about. ”

    — Nightowl

    On the other hand , if a person is too busy or too lazy to bother , or simply doesn’t know any particular set of details of Catholic Church dirt ,
    the old stand – bye is ;

    The Celibacy rule is completely impractical and just plain generally stupid.

    ( And probably a rule made up by some sort of closeted deviants. )

    Obviously the logic there is that ones genitals ARE the very center and meaning of existence.

    And it leaves out details like millions of people around the world , because they are too fat or too skinny , have three eyes , are in a wheelchair , are too old ,too young , and the all – time favorite ; don’t have a pot to piss in , are celibate whether they like it or not.

    Also , fucking your brains out might be something of a risk when you have little money , but are aiming for a Ph.D , for example , so fact is many people voluntarily chose celibacy for extended periods of time , but because it isn’t cool , they don’t broadcast the fact from the rooftops.

    For another , in many various eras and cultures in history soldiering was considered incompatible with marriage, Granted , soldiers never had a celibacy rule that I’m aware of.

    — they just substituted prostitution , and the occasional rape and pillage instead ! 😀

    Not sure what that says about human sexuality ? But clearly even macho , virile soldiers at one time or another had ideas on the subject hardly mainstream conventional wisdom now.

    Another detail relating to the Catholic Church , is that even many Catholics themselves assume the male – only priesthood is a product of historical misogyny.

    I don’t know about that ; 2,000 years ago the Jews and Christians were the bizarre exception with their male – only priesthoods.

    The vast majority of the world then was pagan , and pagan religions typically have gods , goddesses , and not uncommonly hermaphroditic gods , and their priesthoods reflected that.

    i.e. — priestesses were a common – as – dirt thing.

    The world 2,000 years ago was splendidly feministically enlightened ?

    I’m not so sure about that.

    There again , I get the impression that the logic is that sex is everything = there couldn’t be , or it is highly unlikely , that there could be , other motives , motives even far removed from sex.

    • Night Owl July 1, 2022 at 7:27 am #

      There is far too much meandering in this post for me to respond to all of it, but I will say that I respect celibacy, but I do not respect whoredom.

      One takes willpower, and considerable psychological strength to achieve, the other not so much.

    ” Ayn Rand? Seriously? Congratulations shilling for a right wing anti-humanitarian pig. ”

    I’m not a fan either.

    BUT in my estimation , ” Representation without authorization ” should be on a top ten list of best short essays on the subject of political science.

    And kudos to her for pointing out that these days ” altruism ” is a very popular mask for power grabs and sadism in general.

    • tucsonspur July 1, 2022 at 1:48 am #

      Yeah, nobody’s perfect, but Ayn Rand comes closer than most I know. She can seem cold and heartless to many and also too tough and too strong, though many would be reluctant to admit that.

      Her views are implacable, and many weaklings here would definitely wither under her insurmountable logic.

      I get so tired of the go-along to get along types here. Insipid mental midgets who can’t come up with a creative thought if their lives depended upon it.

      Here are just a few quotes among many which I find admirable:

      “If you don’t know, the thing to do is not to get scared, but to learn.”
      ? Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

      “I started my life with a single absolute: that the world was mine to shape in the image of my highest values and never to be given up to a lesser standard, no matter how long or hard the struggle.”
      ? Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

      “It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live.”
      ? Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

      “Joy is the goal of existence, and joy is not to be stumbled upon, but to be achieved, and the act of treason is to let its vision drown in the swamp of the moment’s torture.”
      ? Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

      ‘Men who reject the responsibility of thought and reason can only exist as parasites on the thinking of others.’

      ‘An individualist is a man who says: I will not run anyone’s life – nor let anyone run mine. I will not rule nor be ruled. I will not be a master nor a slave. I will not sacrifice myself to anyone – nor sacrifice anyone to myself.’

      And yet she softens—-‘Don’t think. Believe. Trust your heart, not your brain. Don’t think. Feel. Believe.’

      Ayn Rand was one of the greats, no doubt about it. This Bohemian brawler loves her philosophy of Objectivism, and I can feel free to temper it around the edges.

      • Night Owl July 1, 2022 at 7:29 am #

        “An individualist is a man who says: I will not run anyone’s life – nor let anyone run mine. I will not rule nor be ruled. I will not be a master nor a slave. I will not sacrifice myself to anyone – nor sacrifice anyone to myself.”

        I see her as someone who was like a broken clock.

        And yeah, objectivism is cruel. I don’t know why you’d prefer her philosophy to so many other great ones out there.

        But to each his own I suppose.

      • MaryQueen July 2, 2022 at 12:42 am #

        Oh also, your above comment that I liked (including her quote) makes me want to do further research on her from the POV of feminists, back in her time.

        That could be hella interesting.

    ” Just saw that Sonny Barger died ”

    Never heard of the guy.

    See , Clustefuck Nation can be quite educational !

    I suppose it isn’t surprising that I never heard of the guy — I have always viscerally loathed American motorcycle culture.

    As you might predict , I preferred East German / Soviet motorcycle culture.

    There the idea was that two wheels are cheaper than four , there isn’t an Autozone on every corner , who has the money for all this fancy pants high brow mechanical snobbery anyway , and the roads not uncommonly suck.

    In my opinion , an example where the ethic of the Communist Bloc was closer , if accidentally or circumstantially , to liberty.

    ” My house in Oakland was less than 2 miles from his… ”

    And here again life is strange , and Clusterfuck Nation an occasional treat.

    California is very far away , I never would have guessed I would have a favorite Californian.

  134. KesaAnna July 1, 2022 at 2:06 am #

    Now I suppose I’m going to sound like a milquetoast moderate establishment – type —

    The problem , potentially , of criminalizing a sitting president , or former president ,

    is it might transform the presidency from a prize or a throne , to an electric chair.

    Refer to the final collapse of the Roman Republic ;

    Some Roman big shots got the bright idea to criminalize Julius Caesar.

    Whatever the merits of the case may have been ( ? )

    Still the fact was it left Caesar with his only options being ;

    — utter ruin , and possibly death .

    — full – blown treason .

    Guess which option he picked .

    Granted , a former president doesn’t have a Legion behind him.

    But surely a former president has a hell of a lot of dangerous contacts , and knows where a lot of bodies are buried.

    Another problem I see is , ” Do it once , do it twice , and before you know it , it is a habit , as well for saints as for sinners. ”

    With the possible exception of Carter and Ford ( ? ) every president since Nixon has come under criminal investigation.

    Never serious , but if it did become serious , it is likely to become a habit ,

    and I’m afraid it is foolish to assume that every victim will go meekly to the scaffold.

  135. tucsonspur July 1, 2022 at 2:10 am #

    It works both ways. Hunter Thompson became disillusioned with the Hell’s Angels, and Sonny Barger said of Thompson, “Hunter turned out to be a real weenie and a stone fucking coward. He’s all show and no go. When he tried to get tough with us, no matter what happened, Hunter got scared. I ended up not liking him at all, a tall, skinny, typical hillbilly from Kentucky. He was a total fake.”

    Hunter’s book on the Angels became a guide for law enforcement and, needless to say, Sonny didn’t like that.

    All of this is in the book about Thompson, ‘Savage Journey’.

    I like the Russian Ural with the sidecar.

      Hunters 1st wife claims the Angels gave Thompson a pretty substantial thrashing at one point. It was over money. Barger apparently thought the Hells Angel’s deserved a cut of the money Thompson made from the book and the subsequent movie; Thompson disagreed, which is when he left town and bought his place in Aspen.

      My own estimation of Trump is that he is a Pompey the Great.

      And so I have always thought it hilarious , though maddeningly so , these comparisons between Trump and Hitler.

      These people have no fucking idea what a real extremist is ?

      Or just the usual bullshit ?

      • Night Owl July 1, 2022 at 7:34 am #

        The people who make those comparisons sound like the guy you are responding to.

        He’s “triple vaxed and double boosted” (double boosted, as the guys he is afraid of knew that quintuple vaxed is a level embarassment that not even they thought ol’ Slur could deal with), and he survived the Great American Insurrection.

        He is very powerful and very smart.

    @ BackrowHeckler

    My guess is you would be familiar with the following theory —

    All the evidence points to Stalin organizing a big general purge just before his death.

    That he tried that trick once too often , and was secretly then murdered by Lavrenti Beria to head him off at the pass .

    I wonder what you think of it ?

    I can’t prove it of course , and I could be flat wrong , but I suspect this conspiracy theory is right on the money.

    • BackRowHeckler July 1, 2022 at 5:31 am #

      I’m not sure, KA. At the time Stalin was in the middle of his ‘Doctors Plot’, where he began liquidating his personal physicians and medical advisors, all of whom happened to be Jewish — and some suspect was the beginning of a much larger anti semitic purge he had planned. Stalin was a heavy smoker and drinker so never lived the most healthful life, and was getting pretty old. He could’ve just had a long overdue cerebral stroke. No doubt his henchman — Beria, Kaganovich, Khrushchev — weren’t too unhappy about it, as Stalin had a way of eventually getting rid of those closest to him, even his own family members. You know I’ve been reading a lot about the mafia of late and I’m struck on how much Stalin resembled NY, Philly and Chicago crime bosses in the way he operated; #1 similarity being his highly suspicious nature and the brutal elimination of associates, former associates, friends, comrades, and family members over a period of time. In a way, Stalin was a gangster. To know Stalin personally was to be in grave danger of your life.
