Rene Magritte Memory 1948

In mid-October, I had a ‘cerebral infarction’. Spent some time in hospital, then in a revalidation center. Now, I intend to revive/continue The Automatic Earth. It will be step by little step. Both my body and my mind are ‘shaken’ and my eyesight was hit badly. Sorry.

    @DBS

    The USSA hasn’t had a real audit of it’s gold reserves in decades.

    Do you seriously think there is still actual gold in Ft Knox?

    The Empire of Lies has undoubtedly lied about it’s gold reserves.

    Trust but Verify, Put Up or Shut Up.

    Only Dr D would try to defend the USSA even having physical possession of the bulk of it’s supposed ‘gold reserve’.

    Want do you want to bet most of it has been stolen/sold/rehypothicated and sits in secret vaults of Globohomos.

    Probably in Ice Caves in Greenland! Hahahaha!

    Seriously, Trump lies about everything under the Sun and so does Wall St and the MIC Maggots.

    There’s more gold molding in the Whitehouse than Ft Knox.

    Hell, the Fed can’t even pass an audit how would Ft Knox.

    I do believe that China and Russia have been seriously stacking ounces for many Moonns and can pass an internationally supervised bullion audit.

    The USSA can’t, period

    Here is a mere taste, a small tidbit, of the kind of computer-controlled control system that the technocrats envision, require, and are aggressively building as we speak. And it’s all going to come to a nuclear explosion kind of crisis over SILVER.

    I don’t understand why you are telling me about gold. I don’t care all that much about gold, because although it does have importance it does not have anywhere even close to the importance of silver. Silver is money AND a critical strategic metal that we’re running out of very very rapidly. Without silver this civilization can just kiss good-bye to a high tech AI everything computer controlled dystopia in the hands of the elite cretins who think that the world actually, physically, runs on various forms of “money”. It does not. It runs on things being done by humans using real energy and materials.

    Gold is not the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Silver is.

    Silver:

    There is no shortage of silver!
    The market by raising the price of silver, has successfully reduced demand, so those that those who really want silver, can get silver.
    There is more silver supply sitting on the sidelines, just waiting for even higher silver prices.
    It is all about the price!

    Just a reminder, not only is silver necessary for modern electronics and microwave communications, but gold is used to connect the ICs in all your electronic devices to the “outside world”, i.e. the rest of the circuit board or to the pins to the rest of the circuit board. It is also used in the better connectors elsewhere.

    As more and more things use more and more electrical parts the demand and embedded usage will only increase.

    @WES

    If you do the homework on annual silver consumption compared to annual silver production (mining/refining plus salvage and recovery) you will see that there is a 225 tons-per-year deficit. We’re using it up faster than we’re producing it. A lot faster. And the plan is to use it up even faster. There is no plan B that I’m aware of, and there are no substitutes that are conductive enough and efficient enough (which is to say, generate less heat due to electrical resistance) to replace silver in the smallest chips and circuits. It is not all about price (although that certainly plays a significant role in the complex problem). There is a totally predictable physical shortage that will manifest more and more apparently as the above-ground silver metal reserves continue to be consumed without being replaced.

    China is delivering 30,000 tons of rice to Cuba,
    which is facing severe food and fuel shortages due to the U.S. blockade. The delivery is part of a new Chinese emergency aid program, and the first shipment arrived on Monday with the second shipment arriving at the Port of Santiago de Cuba today. More shipments are set to leave from China soon.

    Who is doing the printing? Canada does not have any money.

    Canada’s US Treasury holdings rocketed 13% to a hefty $472 billion in November 2025, flexing big institutional muscle, foreigners shoveled in C$23.8 billion (~US$17 billion) of Canadian debt for some spicy yield hunting. And per capita?

    Details of Trump’s Greenland deal are trickling in.

    With little official information on what Trump earlier called “a framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland”, which prompted the president to call off tariff threats that he had issued in an effort to secure American ownership of Greenland, and sparked a massive market rally (just as JPMorgan’s trading desk said would happen), the NYT reports that the announcement followed a NATO meeting on Wednesday “where top military officers from the alliance’s member states discussed a compromise in which Denmark would give the United States sovereignty over small pockets of Greenlandic land where the United States could build military bases.”

    The NYT goes on to note that according to two of the officials, who attended the meeting, the deal compares “to the United Kingdom’s bases in Cyprus, which are regarded as British territory.”

    Cuba:

    Cuba can grow food all year round.
    That Cuba is short of food is strictly due to the government preventing people from growing any food.
    People would grow their own food but they are not allowed to do so.
    If caught, they are punished.
    It is all about government control of the people.
    The people must be kept totally dependent.
    Nobody will work hard for the government.

    WES is a firm believer that Marco Rubio as a president and “good-old-Western-know-how” brought in would make all Cuba’s troubles go away and make the life of the people just like in the US.
    Ohh….wait….!!!!
    Interesting that lack of post 90’s Soviet fertilizer supply made conditions that all crops grown are organic by default.
    US sanctions prevented the import of a food poison, among other badly needed things.

    Kultsommer:

    The food shortage is because the people of Cuba are discouraged from growing any food!
    Most people anywhere in the world will grow some food for themselves if they are allowed to.
    And they will work hard in their gardens to maximize food output.
    But as soon as a government official seizes the food grown, they will instantly stop such hard work, because they no longer have the extra calories to work this hard.

    I have seen this behavior in many parts of the world, first hand.
    I have talked to these people about why they don help themselves?
    That includes Cuba!

    Nobody works hard for somebody else’s sole benefit!
    This is basic human nature, something Karl Marx never understood or pretended didn’t exist.
    That is why socialism always fails.
    It is a negative feedback loop.

    “Dow drops 870 points after Trump threatens European allies with tariffs over Greenland U.S. stocks sank on Tuesday following President Trump’s weekend threats to impose tariffs on some NATO trading partners. CBS News

    So you mean “Not falling at all”? Falling = Not Falling. “870 Points” is “Statistical Zero”. It’s like 2%. Daily norm. Not even enough motion to look at bollinger bands, Sigma events. Zero. If you’d said nothing, I’d have reported “Literally nothing happened in markets today.” Thanks CBS. I know it’s zero outside in America today, but I just posted the snow number in a red font and called it Global Warming anyway.

    “Greentanamo: Trump Deal Gives US Sovereignty Over Small Pockets Of Greenland For Military Bases

    …The reported a 500pt move up (also no move at all) was Greenland.

    Thoughts: Tim Pool crew points out, no matter how many thousand times he does it, the Big Ask still fools everyone and they lose their minds, only to find it was normal all along. Speak for yourselves. Whyyyyyy?

    Thought: This was mostly already done before he was even elected, or near after. He wouldn’t propose it if he hadn’t been 95% sure all along, maybe this is Think-Tanked for decades as vital to the military, which it is. Whyyyy do you ppl fall for this?

    Thought: We don’t see the real deal. This is not the real deal. Most of it is hidden, and this is a 5% public face.

    Thought: The deal also is not over. Europe is still going to collapse, and therefore Denmark will still be too busy to help, much less pay on welfare, to Greenlanders, who haven’t been happy in the first place for decades. This is just positioning, and opening discussion to the US people and world.

    There’s more. But taking my own advice: No evidence. Wait.

    Hey look! They have non-stop tshirt and flag shops everywhere in Greenland too! And lots n lots n lots o money to spend on it. Boy Nanook the nationwide screen printing and flag shop purveyor must be sooper happy he kept 1000 flag blanks of the right color on stock! This is not astroturf at all! Totes legit.

    Trump slipped on a banana peel coz he’s lucky like that. Look, this isn’t 5D chess. It’s just: chess. The 1D kind. All these things are obvious, but deny them anyway because it would mean Trump is a normal, average guy. And that means no fee-fees. You get accurate predictions instead.

    “Just like that, US military support for the Syrian Kurds is over…”

    What are you talking about? We’ve been getting them all mass-murdered since Iran-Iraq war (and before, the Brits) in 1980. Welcome to the party. And for the Kurds: WHAT POSSIBLE AMERICAN HISTORY were you ever looking at? That you would ally with us? Man, if you’re dumb enough to do that, you get what’s coming to you.

    Only nation we haven’t betrayed is England because 1) Wilson was a direct puppet for them so why bother 2) when FDR told them he was shutting down the Empire, Churchill had him murdered. (So Stalin reported).

    But we have an answer to this problem: More Government! When has government ever not “Done what they’re told”?

    “Operation Of Australia’s Largest Coal Power Station Extended To 2029

    Government controls the means of production. They “regulate” them, then get more extortion money (donations) for “exceptions”, and the closer to death they are, the better. The only one that loses is all society, all taxpayers, and all progress. …And the environment, if you believe that part. Government! Destroying all humans and all prosperity since Og met Grog.

    “Left-Wing NGOs Plan “Economic Blackout” Across Minnesota As State Becomes Testbed For Revolution
    Autie-Fa

    This is the Gestapo that allows open Communists to run around burning police cars and doing nothing. Just like the original! Totally Hitler because he does nothing at all, just like Hitler did.

    Anyway, yes, retired General pointed out that, whatever level is allowed, That will be the EXACT level of every city in America tomorrow, paid for by you and the DNC. So he will be “doing something” because of that, but what they’re doing is causing the Auntie-Fa army to come out at 0f in Minnesota in January, and tracking them all. Every name and bank account, how it’s all built, and they STILL make this much trouble. Let them. Fire can’t spread in these conditions. Clearly the U.S. Army has overwhelming superiority, or they wouldn’t so easily be able to set the TIMING to January. That means they lost. …And same a Vietnam. Charlie set the war-timing. They won. I told you we already won this like 4 years ago, it’s all mopping up from Normandy to Berlin now.

    So only pundits who want every American dead (most of them) would NOT want Trump to respond. But they WANT this same picture of non-stop fires, assaults, murders, on the streets of every American city. And you are 1) Satan’s minions, spreading chaos and murder worldwide killing da Poors while Rich is safe? or 2) The people of love, peace, and light, by choosing that?

    So you’re FOR the burning of all black businesses, and the beating of all Blue voters on sight? Because that’s what the mob is doing to Minneapolis right now. A: The BLUE murders are the good murders. When BLUE people assault every neighbor it’s a GOOD assault. Not like ICE. Only ICE misbehavior exists, because when the left does violence it it automatically the GOOD violence.

    Kultsummer: Yes, that was all fraud and it’s always been illegal. Always. Nebuchadnezzar had it illegal. Nations that don’t follow the law are legion, as in: All of them. That’s why you should have limited govt in that, if they’re incapable of doing anything good at least we can keep them from doing something evil.

    DBS. Yes, that’s true. But I’ve also heard that same argument since 1994. $100 is awful high price. At 50:1 we’re already in normal ranges. If I had any silver, I’d sell some too, and no doubt other people are. At $100/oz mines are being signed on contract, which is only months away from somebody unloading a payloader on site. But as you say, this is real-world stuff and even the clean mothballed ones will take 5 years.

    Also: Every number published by everyone is a lie. You should already know that. They say “Trump is a liar” then believe everything he says as gospel. We say “Sach/Morgan are rapacious liars” then believe every industry number they pay to publish. No. The “Aboveground gold” number by the same people is more hilarious and less credible than anything I’ve ever read in finance, and that’s really saying something. Individual PEOPLE have reported seeing ONE hoard larger than the tennis court they report as all hoards combined, so clearly they’re off by an order of magnitude and probably more than two. I think all mining on earth could create a tennis court a year, so 10,000 years of mining might be slightly more? Back when no one had mined and gold stuck out the rock face you could melt off with a bonfire in 500BC?

    Same with silver and silver flow. They report WHAT THEY SEE, fine, but all silver is leaving the mine-face and going directly to China unrefined and is off the books. (or enough of it these numbers may as well not exist). WE DON’T KNOW. But I can know for a fact the Silver Supply/Deficit numbers are dead wrong, and also have been proven wrong for decades. Why would they apply now if they’ve been wrong most of my life?

    Reid Videos: Soooo. We can now do an accounting. Greenland happened. So every MacGregor and D Davis was wrong. Every Burlingame and Krainer was right. Can we prune the Intel tree to reflect that, please? Listening to bad, dead-wrong Intel is actually worse than listening to none at all. At least with none you have an open mind.

    Ft. Knox: No, the gold is there. Somewhere (Fed vault at W. Point) Because that’s power. Or you think a government gives up power?

    You can argue the other: the U.S. is not responsible because we’ve been colonized and directed by traitors for 50 years, completely helpless as proven by the theft of our gold. …But then you have to stop saying “We’re bad” at all in that case. If so, we are a victim more battered than Sudan and Gaza by whatever colonial forces robbed us, and you will support America entirely in the good and just fight to throw them off.

    PICK. ONE.

    No, the gold is there. The question is: How many OWNERS does each bar have?

    Hahahaaha! That’s not a question: POSSESSION is 9/10ths of the law, every government in all time says. If it’s Europe we’ll “Charge” them for back-NATO costs. If China we’ll “Charge” them tariffs…and the gold will never move.

    If you don’t think so, you have a far higher estimation of governments than I do. Or you love Americans, are loyal, and want to defend them by fighting the good fight on their behalf against the people who stole our gold. Right?

    Kultsummer: Yes, maybe you didn’t know these NYC Hassids are basically the Jewish Amish in every way. Very odd thing. They did once have good work (eg Jewelry) but have run out of it. But it’s far more accurate and helpful to think of them as Amish. I don’t approve of this of course, but at least we can be accurate.

    Borzzikman: Soldiers died? The deuce you say! And there are GOOD ways to die? Maybe you should attend more actual deaths. (or don’t). Yes, soldiers die in horrible ways almost always and they, and we, are aware of it. Being buried at 55m is functionality no different than at 5cm. Some ways 5cm is worse. The drones are worse, etc, in NATO bunkers you hear “Hey boys, Radar…” then nothing. You’re powder and talking to a guy named “Peter.” 1000x better.

    Celtic: the whites have no power and no responsibilities. That’s how they sailed around and colonized the planet, by sitting on fire-stools in West Yorkshire and complaining about Hebrews. No? Then it doesn’t matter what “They” do, it only matters what WE do.

    “China is delivering 30,000 tons of rice to Cuba,

    Wonder what Cuba’s concessions are back to China.

    “Trump is the globalists, he is the catalyst for the globalist corporate takeover of the planet”

    Yes, Trump is always assassinating himself, same as the Russians are always shelling themselves. No? So American Patriots have been assassinating Trump all this time and the Globalists have been saving him? It’s a bold prediction, hope it pays off for you.

    “Trump replaces UN”

    Yes, because the UN has been doing so well and there’s been non-stop peace last 25 years, and 50 years before that. The UN is openly declared to be exclusively for the derp state and bankers, which is why we must MUST keep it, and them, in power forevah. They write and enforce “International Law” which is why we must obey it/them or we are Bad Man. So Duran says every day. How dare we try something else when what we have hasn’t worked once in 100 years.

    Russia is now going along with Trump’s Gaza crime, with Putin offering 1 billion to the “Board of Peace”; so much for the Orthodox Christianity that Putin preaches all the time, it is obviously bullshit for the peasants. Nobody is mentioning a two-state solution any more, they are all kissing Israel’s ring.

    Anyone who thought that Putin was not Jew owned will be unhappy to learn they were wrong.

    Looks like Israel is destined to be the next ruler of the west; all the western nations appear to be doing everything they can to help Israel rule the world, including American cops visiting plebs who dislike the genociders in Israel; how unAmerican, hating genocide and mass violence.

    Times will be tough for the white people of the world, the people who allowed the Jews to accumulate so much stuff that they could buy out the rest of the west. Of course, all that stuff could be taken away from them if the west was not so cucked and pathetic, the Americans being the worst, they won’t take any responsibility for their country, the shit they are in, anything. Looks like Europe will have to somehow save the white man.

    And on here we have DBS and Dr Death, both Jew defending retards, neither of which speak anything approaching rational thinking. Anyway, they can now celebrate that America and Russia are as bad as each other; America genocided Gaza while Russia genocided Ukraine.

    I agree that what you’re saying is in good part the reason for the Socialism’s failure. However the “tone of your writing” implies that everything is just a swell on the “other side”. The reason that we congregate on the sites like this is hardly as our concern for the “issues” that people in Cuba and NK may have. Please don’t go into “it’s all the government’s fault” tiresome B/S, given that Corporate world runs the show.
    You exhibit all the characteristics of a man who, as people say where I came from, has a wallet in the place of a beating hart. Your absolute dismissal of a notion that people can actually cooperate if the circumstances are right.
    The system that we live in breads distrust – starting with the work place where the “job creators” view their employees as a commodity, despite the fake “high-fives” and tax deductible “giveaways and bonuses” at the Co’s Christmas party, that workers earned anyway but it was withheld from them. By observing how just about any psychopath outpace a honest working folks by the light year, it is obvious why nobody is in rush to “volunteer” at the work place.
    Previously I’ve written the positive samples of a human coop or the state owned enterprises:
    – In the army, after the combat nobody is counting the beans as who did or contribute what.
    – Self-formed community gardens even in the US.
    – Current Russia’s MIC vs US’ ?
    – China style “communism” – where the gov keeps the Corp psychos in check as not to loot the country.
    There was a story that quite a few, what one would say ordinary Muscovites could claim that Yuri Gagarin was their neighbor and yet he died, albeit tragically and way early, as a happy man. No trace of bitterness of “being forced” to live among the hoi polloi . The same goes with the number of their celebrities. Compare that with the Hollywood where even the Americans feel the stench emitting from that place.

    Also while Wicki is not a beacon of truth all the time, link attached to my earlier comment tells the different story about the food growing in the Cuba. Their biggest menace are the crushing sanctions by the Northern neighbor. Without them they would be living low-key but quite sustainable life style.
