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.

    AI. Going to take over the world.

    Gold $5,000, Silver $100. Halfway through the economic currecy reset, still no one noticed. Yup, that scans.

    “Trump Backs Down on Greenland as Attention Returns to Ukraine” Sebastian Sas•16K views•2 hours ago”

    Demonstrating you can write the headlines one way, or the opposite way, and same thing. I guess Trump lost. So Wow. Muchly. Lost but also won.

    Both. Neither. Aiiii.

    PS, no attention has returned to Ukraine. Haven’t even heard the word Ukraine this week. But I’m in America, not Europe.

    Jeffrey Sachs refute every word. (Diesen, who seems a Diesen guy.) And that’s too bad because, aside from him being quintessentially the most globalist who ever globaled a global, he’s the kind of golden retriever academic who truly and actually BELIEVES this s—t. And I respect that. I mean, I know what he is, but he’s trying to do good, and is out in public talking about it. I guess we know why. With that approach he’ll certainly never stop any apple carts, and indeed stacks them for Oligarchs a mile high.

    Almost first thing: AMERICA did all this, it’s AMERICA’S fault. Okay, noted, yes. (But also EUROPE never said a word, and somehow, it didn’t actually seem to harm Europe, but Europe LIKED it all and profited.) Whoa whoa whoa Jeff. So America marched around in Empire, was very visible, lost a ton of money, all to make a few at our top rich while the country collapsed? Right. Got you. But then EUROPE did NOT spend any money, was NOT visible, was NOT mad, supported the whole thing, and got all the same contracts and profits anyway, losing no men? Is that what I hear you saying?

    And given that setup, you believe AMERICA is the one doing and steering this. Europe is NOT participating, it’s all a big accident they are getting all the benefits and none of the costs?

    First thing he says, also known it for years I’m sure. PUT THE DOTS TOGETHER, man.

    So let’s put this together: They KNOW America is this way: he says so, that’s his thesis. THEN EUROPE DID NOTHING AT ALL. “Did this to themselves”. Huh. That’s oddddddd. WHY would they do that? And this is America’s fault, somehow, if your assumption is correct? Sooo, you knew there was a wolf, so you took the doors off the hinges and spread red meat around, your plan? And this is the wolf’s fault?

    JHC no. That theory does not scan. It’s retarded. He follows with “Their outrageous Russophobia” and “Have no diplomacy at all and no diplomatic policy.” Huh. Again. That’s odddddddddd. After 5,000 years non-stop practice they forgot how to do diplomacy. WHY would they do that, smashed between a violent Russia and a rapacious United States? Is that OUR fault? We MADE them become a bunch to witless drooping incompetent retards?

    Yeah, you know, somehow I don’t think so. I suspect that was all because THEY didn’t want to PAY. But DID want a war between The U.S. and Russia where at the end we would hand 12 times zones to Europe to eat. No.

    He then goes on about how Mark Carney is the greatest, bestest, wisest, most law-abiding person Evah! Who’s with me, Canadians? Sachs taught him at Uni, you see. And we all know an “Old School Chum” with the school tie can never be a bad man but is a Gentleman, sir. Carney is beating up Trump daily! (Um, this may have come out a few hours before Greenland). I’m certain every Canadian loves him with a record like that!

    Trump “Backed down on Greenland and Tariffs” Well that aged badly. He should have booked the interview later in the day. Then his perpetually and universally wrong predictions wouldn’t be so embarrassing. He says “There are no real negotiations about Greenland at all.” Ah. I see. Expert Insider knowledge. The kind Celtic says we need to fear daily bc they’re unbeatable.

    Now WHY did Trump do that Jeff? And this is the problem, as this IS Jeff’s specialty, as an “Expert”. “Trump only backed down because the stock market crashed on Greenland. That’s all he cares about.”

    Just covered yesterday. Even a THOUSAND points is zero, Jeff. I know you’re all 1,000 years old now, but try to keep up. A 1% move is NOT “reacting to Greenland”. That’s “It was so slow, traders took the day off.” Now he may not know this more subtle, connect-the-dots stuff from before, but if he doesn’t know THAT, you’re fired. Quick, before someone finds out who we’ve hired at the University. Markets IS your core purview. That’s WHY you’re on the geopolitics, the relation between the two. You have to know “Something happened” from “Nothing happened.” 1 from 0.

    Jeffrey Sachs no longer knows what a “Stock Market” is, I am sad to say. So what DO you know, sir?

    So as the numbers didn’t move at all, his thesis is that they front-ran the trade of this AMAAAAAZING 1% move. “Because this is the most corrupt government ever in world history.” And then admits he just made that up just now, having no evidence. Great? And Uhhh….about that, Jeff. Might want to look into that. Hunter Biden’s hard drive is publicly available. No need to break out the Grant Administration.

    How does he know all this? “Anything anybody says, I would regard with 100% skepticism”. Soo, you have no root evidence. So how do you make conclusions with no trusted facts, AND clearly no insider information about negotiations n stuff?

    Sachs moves on to: Bessant says “These are all regime-change operations” (as in Iran). Why yes, I see the dozens of regimes that have been changed, and the millions of men deployed to do so.

    Something = Nothing. Nothing = Something. — Jeffrey Sachs.

    In fact, what they seem to be saying is, “The Iranian regime is tired and the leader is old. This is a good time for a change and reform.” Again, this seems to be what RUSSIA is saying. And they’re not wrong. Why do you THINK Iran isn’t deeper in the BRIICS? They should be DEEPER than Russia/China. They’re not. Clearly Russia & co see something they are reluctant about there in Tehran.

    What’s really infuriating is, He’s bananas about Bessant using “Economic Hit Man” “Disaster Capitalism” on Iran

    WHICH IS SACH’S DAY JOB. That’s what JEFF does for a living. Now he’s talking about how unhinged and offensive it, finance, globalism is. THAT’S YOU, Jeff. That’s your entire career, from a freshman. You were numbero uno honcho in Russia apologizing for all that, that’s why we know your name. Your endless support for this is why you’re on the Fox/CNN/Pod circuit.

    What they, and Diesen, and Kyle Kalinski (liberal pod) don’t like is they ADMIT it. Their thesis is “Why yes, it was always realpolitick and raw power, of relationships, there was NEVER any “Rule of Law’ anywhere, ever, but don’t BREAK MY ILLUSION and like TELL THE TRUTH about it.”

    Ah. So it’s REALITY you’re fighting, ackshully. You want Iran plundered, but you want to be the GOOD people who do it, totally on accident, and those Nike shoes made by child slaves show up via Amazon worker who piss in a bottle not to be fired. Yes, Jeff. That’s your NeoLiberal “Rules and Norms” world in a nutshell.

    Bessant, Trump. What Sachs n co can’t stand is THEY TELL THE TRUTH about it. “We’re crushing Iran” Bessant says (then doesn’t) “We’re taking the oil” Trump says. (Then doesn’t). It’s the SAYING that is bad. It’s the Signaling.

    Tell the Truth and they burst into flames.

    Oh, PS Sachs says, seeing as how the Trump has done dozens of these regime changes since Jan 20, Cuba is next. Ah, yes, I see that. Read it in the news. And so with all those proofs in hand, Trump has also regime changed Cuba, Lebanon, Yemen, Sudan, Libya, Somalia, and Palestine. Ah. Wow. Riveting.

    Yup. ZERO regime changes = Infinity regime changes. — Jeffrey Sachs.

    Next: Russia would have peace all along, since 1990, all Europe has to do is say yes, even now. They refuse to do this, even now, and BRITAIN IS THE WORST AND HOPELESS on it since 1859. This is the fault of the United States. I mean, Europe isn’t a country, and their humans aren’t humans who like, choose things n’ stuff. they are ID “10” T robots who follow Base 10 commands when told. I mean, Trump is the obvious example of this amirite? Europe does anything Trump tells them to instantly and without restraint. They never buck or oppose the United States, being perfect victims and minions.

    What’s that laughter? Jeffrey Sachs says. (Diesen agrees) This is perfect logic.

    Diesen asks “How do you explain all 27 nations [suddenly] can’t do basic diplomacy?” Blah blah blah, Germany, blah blah blah, I love Angela Merkel, blah blah France. Central Europe is on board. (P.S. it’s Trump and the United States. We stop all 400 million Europeans from all 400 million actions by raw force. It’s our 100 million soldiers we have deployed there, I guess.)

    Oh wait, no. We maybe might have blackmailed one guy once, but he’s not sure.

    Tah dah! That’s expert class: Genius Level. Huzzah!

    “Game over” “This Changes/Ends Everything.”

    So I can safely assume then that the game continues, nothing is over, and nothing has changed a bit? Yup. “I Speak therefore I lie” More reliably than rain.

    Kiev:

    I see headlines saying 600,000 people have left Kiev in January.

    However, I am very skeptical about Kiev depopulating such numbers in wintertime.
    In very cold weather, people tend to stay put.
    It is the high rise apartment buildings where the poorest Kievian̈s live that have lost power,heat, and water.
    These people are the least mobile people in Kiev. Few have cars.
    So where could they go?
    Take the trains that are not running?
    Go to the border when they have no bribe money to pay?

    If these people leave the protection of Kiev, they face the certain prospect of being picked off, one by one, by the head hunters and sent to the frontlines!

    So being mostly poor, the only real choice they have is to stay put and suffer until spring comes.

    the headline – direct advertisment to lure CAD

    ( $1 USD equal to $1.38 CAD as of Thursday morning.)

    Three casinos in Downtown Las Vegas have pledged to stretch Canadian dollars a little further to attract visitors from the Great White North.

    Circa, The D and Golden Gate say they will treat Canadian dollars as U.S. dollars across select gaming, hotel and beverage offerings, now through August 31.

    NATO is the USSA

    Stop the lie that it’s not.

    The crushing defeat of NATO in Ukraine IS the crushing defeat of America.

    The EU is merely a phantasmagorical construct to mask the fact that the USSA is the real Globohomo infested bastion of Might is Right.

    The USSA’s defeat in Ukraine will annihilate “Europe” as a functioning sub-continent.

    “Europe” is entering a New Dark Age.

    Energy is the Master Resource

    If any entity or ‘nation’ lacks cheap net energy it can never manufacture price competitive products and will sink to third world status.

    Europe is now sinking into this cesspit.

    As an area, a rump-bump of west Asia, it has not only no long term energy sources, it has no real natural resources.

    It has no High Tech sector to speak of.

    AI is a non issue for all of Europe.

    Same for chip manufacturing and computer design.

    Tourism will also die because the illegal immigrant invasion operation has destroyed the Big Shities of the continent.

    Mayor of Kiev:

    The Mayor of Kiev seems to be the most vocal about 600,000 people leaving Kiev.
    The first time he said for the 600,000 to leave Kiev, the Major wasn’t even in the Ukraine.
    He was on holidays!

    If one is one of the 600,000, all you need to do is look out of your apartment to see who still has power!
    The rich still have power!
    And your Mayor lives there too!

    So why would the Mayor of Kiev keep telling the 600,000 people to leave?
    If one is cynical, your Mayor doesn’t plan on worrying about the poor, since there is no money in doing so.
    So if one complains, the Mayor will simply say “I told you to all leave!”
    In other words, the 600,000 people now no longer exist!

    Expect, the underground Metro to be depowered shortly, to protect the rich, by trapping the poor in place.

    The CIA, Nato, and the Ukrainian elites must be very happy that peace isn’t going to breakout anytime soon.

    Putin is “sticking to his guns”, and letting his generals do the negotiating on the battlefield.

    Before the negotiations are completed, Russia needs to secure the watershed that provides water to both the Donbas region and Crimea.
