Insightful appraisals of

Potential war with Iran, Russia, China, Venezuela, et al.

 ‘Not to worry, the Democrat ruled American military has us covered.


 

Beijing’s Fortune Cookie

 No doubt they just heard that  America offers more variety on its cable channels. 


 

“We Have to Destroy [Democracy] to Save [Democracy]”

 This is beyond nuts.  The Democrat communists have become so strident in their attacks upon America’s constitutional order that they are brazenly seeking to outlaw voter’s choices for the likily Republican candidate (Donald Trump).   They’ll use any means necessary to establish their one-party punitive authoritarian government.  

No matter how they twist the truth, there WAS NO “insurrection” on January 6th, 2020.  No one had called for an insurrection. No one was armed, and Trump himself had offered National Guard troops, which Nancy Pelosi turned down.  

The bottom line among all the complex points of contention is that the Democrats are literally telling half the country’s population that they should not be allowed to oppose them.  If any controlled opposition is permitted , it must be one of the deep state’s choosing. A Liz Cheney, Mitt Romney, or Nicky Halley may be permitted but no “America First” stuff.  We’re building a global police state and the idea of preserving a republican form of constitutional government must be crushed.

Backlash is going to be sweet.

Scams, deceit, and toxic living

Any honest observer will acknowledge that corrupt business practices have exited everywhere and throughout time.  

 This is an interesting video that covers some of the creepier schemes that taint food products in mainland China.

Ironically, one of the many phony excuses conjured for “needing” a communist revolution is that it will eliminate the deceptions that occur in a society “based on greed”(freedom). 


Of course, the actual track records are pretty clear.  A developed free-market with a dependable and consistent rule of law tends to offer more trustworthy interactions between merchant and customer.  Western free-market societies certainly have a long way to go before one can truly feel that products are

unadulterated.  Many food additives are literally toxic but I think most would find them preferable to what you’ll see in the video.

Martial Law in America (?)

Beyond possible.

“… Nearly half the country was willing to abandon the Bill of Rights over a virus with a survival rate of 99.8%.”


 

 The end of the world as we know it.


 

 Where they are taking us.   And, you’ll be glad to “eat zee bugzz.”


 

Be nice to those who harm you…

 If establishment media was doing their job, this would be big news (perhaps in a few days or weeks they’ll get around to it).  

What the hell is Turkey in NATO for?  It’s clear that the country’s leadership does not ally with the West — something that Erdogan clearly confirms.

It’s absolutely insane that a few weeks ago an area ruled by a violent terrorist organization deliberately attacked civilians and when Israel performed its duties to it’s citizens by retaliating, all the usual suspects have directed their scorn at the response and not the initial attack (the UN, “progressive” authoritarian leftists, clueless pampered and indoctrinated college drones, and garden-variety dictatorships the world over).

After the initial attack against Israeli civilians (by so-called “freedom fighters”), all the talk is now about “cease-fires” and “proportional responses.”  If you had a gun and someone attacked you with a knife, would you put the gun down and search for a knife to be “proportional?”  Israel has legitimate cause to use absolute force to completely obliterate its enemies. 

The Arab authorities living in Gaza should have used the millions given to it to build schools and civilian infrastructure — not tunnels and weapons for attacking its neighbors.

Where Democrats Stand…

 You can always tell where Democrats stand by watching when they sit. 

When President Trump said, in his State of the Union Address, that “America will never be a socialist country,” Democrats, in a rare moment of honest expression, sat silently.

(A short video clip wouldn’t post here. It was a brief statement by the new Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, stating that a goal of his would be “decentralization.”  The Democrats sat silently with smug looks on their faces.  Of course Democrats are FOR centralization. Their party is synonymous with the government itself).

The establishment media’s interest in allegiances

 As of this posting, the recent mass-shooting suspect in Maine has not yet been captured.

One thing we can be sure of is:  If he was in any way sympathetic to Democrats or leftist causes, it may be noted briefly as irrelevant and then put down the usual partisan media memory hole.  If, on the other hand, he is shown to have sympathies and affiliations for anything remotely conservative — especially “MAGA”/Donald Trump, it will be the topic discussed at length through a perpetual news cycle - (like the “[non] insurrection”). 

If the killer is left-wing in any way, there will certainly be no mass clampdown on “progressive” Democrats.  If the shooter is on the right, new executive orders and Department of “Justice” tactics will be directed at punishing anyone who believes in constitutional minimal government.

In a sane world we should all be able to agree that mass-shooting incidents of this kind are terrible. Crazy violent people can have any number of views politically.  Media’s use of a killer’s beliefs to further their own agendas is pathetic.

The Shallow Deep State

The administrative state has become an authoritarian enterprise. It’s a parasitic class that feels no responsibility to the country’s citizens and openly favors the interests of foreign institutions. It has overwhelmingly become the single greatest threat to the constitutional order.

The Gestalt Conspiracy

Individual departments within government and like minded institutions in education, journalism, and pop culture needn’t consciously coordinate to direct themselves toward similar ends.  The result of this conspiracy of like-mindedness can be compared to drawing three dots on a piece of paper and no longer seeing just three unrelated dots.  A triangle does not manifest out of collaboration between dots.   In a sense, an end product or goal emerges from the primacy of “the whole” over constituent pieces.  A nation has distinct and somewhat predictable qualities in spite of the varied attributes and temperments of individual citizens or regional particulars.


Different unrelated segments within the leftist industrial complex needn’t coordinate their actions toward a particular end when that end itself is drawing them all into a particular direction.  While this may defy the rules of cause and effect there is no rule saying that retro causality is not a legitimate means of appraising reality. 


Almost everything in the universe exists in a state of defined independence and simultaneously exists as part of a larger overarching structure; atom, molecule, cell, organ, organism, herd…. 


In the human social sphere one finds the individual, the “couple,” the family, the community, and (at this time in history) the nation-state. It is the unique circumstance of humans that they can consciously choose to affiliate to varying degrees among these hierarchies of collaboration or largely reject all of them.  While “no man is an island” he or she can certainly exert a high degree of independence from the collective if they choose to do so and they are not breaking some sacrosanct natural “rule” by doing so. 


Gestalt is a branch of perceptual psychology that is best described in the well-know phase, “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”  The greater configuration is something beyond and apart from the constituent pieces that produce it.  In a sense, the gestalt appraisal can be appreciated by observing the patterns that have come to be called “fractals.”  So it is that an individual can be something rather different in character than the collective larger construct while still following much of the archetypal design common to both.  A person can be shy and quiet yet be part of an essentially extroverted or aggressive nation.  This paradox ultimately plays into the many dilemmas that plague humanity (and not just humanity).  


Today, one is often chastised or praised for noting the affinities one may have for a collective unit.  Ironically, this paradox feeds into a basis for racism and varieties of manipulative victimhood.  An individual can describe themselves as “oppressed” because they belong to a group that has genuinely been oppressed — even if they, themselves are successful and fortunate. 


In the political sphere, seeing objective truth as favoring the larger collective constructs around us certainly leans one to collectivist philosophies (eg. communism, fascism).  Allegiance to philosophies that honor the individual may be accused of overlooking genuine problems stemming from collective affiliations.  It would however be accurate to say that collective entities tend to move toward greater abstraction.  I think it was Ayn Rand who noted that “society is no one in particular and everyone but yourself.” It’s not to say that human group affiliations are invalid but they are, in a sense, less tangible.  Noting the attributes of a “typical American” might offer some insightful perspective on their character and behavior but those general traits are ultimately a nebulous factor and may or may not accurately describe the actual life of a person or smaller community in their daily objective actions.


It would be quite accurate to note that the current zeitgeist seems to be favoring the coalescing of like-minded “conspirators” like The World Economic Forum, The United Nations, and a host of other group affiliations that favor biding the world’s inhabitants to centralized authority and the illusion that an imposed configuration is the only valid reality.


Three collaborating dots may form a simple triangle but “connecting the dots” in the collectivist movements of our time could prove fatal to the future of those who wish to maintain degrees of autonomy.

“Palestinians”

 This guy  lays it out quite well. 


 

Now, all of a sudden

 Biden is being frugal with taxpayer money.

As usual, free food, healthcare, education, and housing for foreigners invading the country — nothing for American citizens. This is the trade off for avoiding “mean tweets” from orange man?

Pathetic.

Intelligence…and lack of Intelligence

Much is being made of a lack of effective intelligence in being aware of the current attack upon Israel.

It should also be noted that Hamas clearly “lacks intelligence” (pun intended), making the stupid move of attacking Israel when they know that the response will be all hell unleashed upon them.  Why would any sane political institution attack a country that is both David AND Goliath.

The Islamic Attack Upon the West

While many may see the Palestinian/Hamas attack upon Israel as an isolated skirmish between far-away peoples, the conflict is clearly one of global significance.  Whether some may like it or not, the history of the Jewish people is strongly wedded to European/Western civilization — with some obvious negative interactions as part of that kinship. 


It’s no coincidence that the shrill whines of American leftists (including Jewish leftists) are perpetually in sympathy with “Palestinians” (Arabs residing in Palestine) and continually directing bitter hatred toward Israel.  Again, no coincidence that those among the American political elite that despise America, despise capitalism, and despise middle class America, are the same ones who hate the Jewish state.  


Israel is an outpost of Western civilization surrounded by the resentful non-Western world.  The Arab/Islamic peoples of the Middle East could easily — peacefully — coexist with the Jewish people in the region but, with the same violent bitterness they hold toward America and the West they obsessively demand nothing short of Israel’s annihilation. 


When two sides are at war, one’s sympathies are reasonably directed toward those who didn’t start the conflict...  The more civilized of the two sides earn allegiance as well.

The Law of Unforseen Consequences

 Everytime       The most efficient, inexpensive, and productive means of energy production is achieved when free agents are able to innovate and produce what a free public wants.   Top-down is worthless.  For the record, remember that CO2 is not a pollutant. It’s naturally occuring and comprises less than 1% of the Earth’s atmosphere. In times past, there were considerably higher amounts in the atmosphere unrelated to human existence.  There is literally no way to coordinate human activity with numerous natural input to arrive at a perfect “correct” global average temperature.

Islam, Socialism, and AI — the 21st century’s triad of terror and subjugation


 

“Democratic” (insert laughter) socialism”

 If we take “democratic” in the generic sense, to mean “free,” a “democratic socialist” is not democratic. The very nature of socialism requires increasing centralization of political authority to compel and coerce a nation’s citizens. There is no way that everyone will be on board with such a scheme. So it is that socialism’s main goal becomes the elimination of opposition through any means necessary and the institution of punitive measures to remain in power.

 Fuck Hamas

Remember, Biden gave 6 billion dollars — ON 9/11! — to Iran and depleted our country’s strategic oil reserves (to give a false impression of lowering gas prices before an election).  

The American military has been castrated by a worthless clique of Marxist idiots more concerned with pronouns and eye-liner for men, than the ability to be an effective defense force.

The Economics of Pragmatism vs. the Crusade to Impose Ideology

 Capitalism is ultimately pragmatic — low taxation, low regulation, and  freedom for the real world to manifest.  Socialism is always ideological. The socialist’s end goal is always the creation of a “new and better world.”  When reality intrudes upon those goals, the socialist, from Robespierre to Hugo Chavez, lashes out and devotes their energies to eliminating opposition.  Free markets are for a diverse citizenry to pursue diverse interests. Socialism is a plaything of philosophers with chips in their shoulder.

Global… Scheming….


 

RFK Jr.

 RFK Jr. is a typical old-school traditional Democrat. I would be unlikely to vote for him but wouldn’t be in fear for the republic if he were to win.

The difference between RFK Jr. and most Democrats today is that, in spite of being a moderate/liberal, he appears to genuinely like America, like it’s constitution and system of government, and wants to to do what he feels is best for America as a sovereign nation. NONE OF THIS CAN BE SAID OF MOST DEMOCRATS TODAY.

Constitution, freedom, independence, and prosperity.  There is nothing wrong with making America great again. Screw the communist autocrats.
