Mr Ritter himself described 2 decades as protector of Israel. That seems to give anyone the right to lead into a comment with it. Beyond that your comments are indicative of a complex. Not constructive that I can see.NEO:
Netanyahu convened a meeting of his war cabinet on 14 April, a day after the Iranian attack, to formulate an effective strategy to respond to this attack. Benny Gantz, a member of the Israeli war cabinet, stated, after the end of the meeting, that Israel would “exact a price” for Iran’s attack at a time and in a war that suits it. Any escalation between Israel and Iran will have serious repercussions not just for the two countries but for the whole world. Israel’s attack on Iran could lead the world into a major war. A war between Iran, and Israel would result in the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The world, especially Europe, will plunge into an energy crisis. The world will see a major spike in oil and gas prices. This war will also further widen the gulf in the Middle Eastern world. Moreover, the prospects of World War 3 will also increase. At this juncture, world leaders, especially the US, European Union, Russia, and China – should play an effective and prudent diplomatic role to de-escalate the situation, otherwise this game of brinkmanship could lead the world into major catastrophe.
Russian “Ovod” FPV Drone with Auto Lock-on Capability
Terminator drones with AI lock-on after coms are cut or disrupted.
Wait until the Satanic Monsters of the West turn these loose on the Sheeple for having a “low” social credit score.
Wrong Think will get you a killer drone that blows you up at your house at the backyard BBQ.
Boom!
Tula designers of FPV drones and EW systems have presented an ‘intelligent’ FPV drone guidance system capable of recognizing and attacking targets without human intervention,
In my hands is an unmanned aerial vehicle “Ovod-S” with an onboard homing system “Ploshchad”. Implemented through two types of tracking: algorithmic, and neural network, where we can recognize – recognize objects and, in general, strive to destroy them in exactly the same way.
– said Ivanov.
According to the developers, this solution will allow FPV kamikaze drones to attack targets even when communication between the operator and the drone is lost.The effectiveness of this solution is due to the fact that when we go beyond the limits of radio visibility, – if the connection is broken, the device continues to track the target and defeats it, regardless of whether it is a static target or a dynamic one
Aha. The twitter feed below seems to be where the Russia being part of any Iranian counterattack rumor is coming from
Another twitter user Jokerman Intel said the same thing but attributed it to coming from “Iranian Regime affiliated media”
Would Western governments, media, etc TELL us if Russia had communicated this to DOD? (why worry about hiding it from us when at least half our population was unalarmed at Hillary promising to go to war on live TV) But in any case, totally unsubstantiated other than a couple accounts on Twitter with a point back at Iran media saying it.

Western Sanctions screw the pooch
Russia, their very own CNC machine tools manufacturer, thanks to Western “sanctions” Russia is making it’s own now.
CNC milling machine tools, carousel-type and gantry-type, capable of machining multi-meter parts in three and even five coordinates – all these machines were recently purchased abroad.
But sanctions and the SWO accelerated Import Substitution, and now Russia is acquiring its own unique high-precision machine tools.

The Missiles Of April https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/the-missiles-of-april
The April 13 Iranian response to Israel’s attack on the Iranian Embassy in Damascus, Syria on April 1, has readjusted the equation of Mideast and perhaps global power relations.
Iran chose to demonstrate capability and re-establish deterrence against Israeli and US attacks upon Iranian territory, rather than to respond in kind by killing. This choice and other Iranian communications, make it clear that Iran does not want a regional war, but will respond harshly to attacks despite all air defenses in place.
Because it is now deterred, the US will officially not support Israel in attacking Iran (which means no aerial refuelling of Israeli bombers, we presume). President Biden has communicated this to P.M. Netanyahu, who voiced “understanding”.
Prime Minister Netanyahu heads a revisionist-Zionist coalition which intends to remove non Jewish Palestinian natives from Israel/Palestine through genocide, so he is politically threatened unless he can appear to be progressing in that direction. Scott Ritter has predicted that in order to “do something” the Mossad would ramp-up covert actions against Iran, through ISIS and ethnic separatist groups, but after an initial announcement of restraint by the Israeli government (reflecting military facts) the Netanyahu administration now announces that it will directly attack Iran (reflecting political reality).

Germany, France and the UK called upon Israel “not to escalate” after Iran’s strike on Saturday. Israel killed 43 Palestinians attempting to return home to north Gaza as Hamas presents a new counter-proposal for a ceasefire
Israeli Finance Minister and ultra-nationalist settler Bezalel Smotrich calls for full Israeli control of Gaza.
Israel releases two Palestinian medics in Gaza after 50 days of detention. Six other medics remain detained.
Israeli army shoots at Palestinians attempting to return to the northern Gaza Strip, killing one girl.
. On Sunday, Al-Jazeera reported from “sources close to negotiations” that Hamas’s proposal involves three 42-day-long phases of ceasefires, including captive exchanges. The group proposed an Israeli withdrawal to the Gaza borders from all areas of the Strip during the first phase and a permanent ceasefire to be announced during the second phase, allowing for an exchange of captives.
According to reports, Hamas proposed to release one Israeli civilian captive for every 30 Palestinian captives, and one Israeli military captive for every 50 Palestinian captives, including 30 Palestinians serving high sentences in Israeli prisons.
Hamas’s proposal insisted on allowing displaced Palestinians to return to the north of Gaza, and the beginning of reconstruction in the Gaza Strip during the third phase.
For its part, Netanyahu’s office released a statement by the Israeli Mossad, saying that Hamas had “given a negative response” to Israel’s ceasefire proposal. Gilbert Doctorow, What you need to know about the Iranian attack on Israel but will not find in your mainstream news provider
The Iranian position is much more nuanced and contains far greater threat not only to Israel but also to the entire United States presence in the region than the FT suggests. I say this on the basis of an analysis provided on last night’s edition of the Vladimir Solovyov talk show on Russian state television by a regular panelist, Semyon Arkadievich Bagdasarov, who is a leading Russian specialist on the region...
..Bagdasarov calls the Iranian attack on Israel a limited strike intended as a warning, but also yielding both specific tactical and strategic results.
On the tactical side, the swarming of drones was intended to activate the Iron Dome and other levels of Israeli air defense and to reveal the location of their component parts as well as to deplete the Israeli stock of relevant missiles.
Per Bagdasarov, Israeli claims to have shot down 99% of the incoming barrage should be taken with a grain of salt. The Iranians’ key targets in the attack were the Israeli air force base in the south of the country from which the Israeli strike on Iran’s consulate in Damascus was launched two weeks ago and a military intelligence compound which had prepared that deadly strike. The actual extent of damage from Iranian missiles remains to be evaluated.
Bagdasarov explains that the Iranian attack was ‘limited’ because it consisted of rather slow moving drones and of missiles with small warheads. These were not Iran’s most advanced and lethal attack materiel, which has been held in reserve for any possible Round Two...
..Over the past 20 years, Iran has bet its defense budget on missiles and drones, and it has a large-scale serial production of both. Meanwhile, Iran’s regional allies also have large stocks of these weapons, some of which are also fairly sophisticated. In particular, Hizbollah in Lebanon may have 1500 high quality missiles in its arsenal.
At the strategic level, Iran demonstrated its ability to coordinate a missile and drone attack on Israel with its regional proxies so as to maximize the threat coming from all directions.
Iran used the attack to achieve a political and military objective that has long eluded it. Teheran has now issued threats against Persian Gulf states to bomb any and all that allow the Americans to use their air space or otherwise facilitate Israel’s possible revenge attack on Iran from their territories. These states all fear a war and have now agreed to Iran’s demand. In effect, this negates decades of U.S. unchallenged domination in the Gulf.
Iran has specifically threatened the U.S. regional command in Qatar and the base of the 5th fleet in Bahrain.
The latter point is reflected in Biden’s latest urging restraint on Israel. Washington has understood that its forces in the region are now hostage to whatever Netanyahu may do against Iran as follow-up to this weekend’s barrage.
Furthermore, at the threat level, Iran has a still unused but clearly visible ace in the hole: its ability at will to blockade the Straits of Hormuz and thereby cut off nearly all export shipments of gas and oil from the region. The Straits are just 50 km wide and are easily controlled by Iran’s anti-ship missiles ashore. Such a closure would create havoc on global energy markets. We were reminded of Iran’s dominant position there several days ago when they captured a container ship owned by an Israeli millionaire which was traveling through and directed it to their own coast.
And what about Israel’s alleged plans to attack Iran’s nuclear installations? Bagdasarov insists that this is an impossible objective. Firstly, because the Iranian nuclear program is distributed among 200 centers spread across the vast country and many of these locations are in desert areas buried under 40 meters of sand. The Israelis might only destroy a couple of the best known nuclear centers. Secondly, because to reach their targets in Iran, the Israeli jets would require in-air refueling by American tankers, and it is scarcely credible that Biden will give his consent considering how the U.S. regional bases are under threat.
Iran fired this time only on military objects, but if they use not 300 but 10,000 missiles and drones then Israel will be obliterated. Hizbollah alone have 1,500 advanced missiles. Iran surely has real missiles and drones that are still more powerful. No one knows exactly how many...
..As host Vladimir Solovyov commented at the opening of the program, the principal fact is that the Iranians did it. They spat on the U.S. and its allies, and they just did what they believed was necessary. In consequence the world ‘built on rules’ counts for nothing. https://gilbertdoctorow.com/2024/04/15/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-iranian-attack-on-israel-but-will-not-find-in-your-mainstream-news-provider/I saw this Saturday night, but not since then (Sshhh…)
Vladimir Putin: If the United States wants to come to the field to support Israel, we will not sit idle here, the smallest attack by the United States on Iranian soil will force us to support Iran. https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/component/content/article/iran-launches-drones-and-cruise-missiles-against-israel?catid=17&Itemid=220Scott Ritter, Iran’s retaliatory attack on Israel will go down in history as one of the greatest victories of this century.
First and foremost, Iran has been engaged in a strategic policy premised on a pivot away from Europe and the United States, and toward Russia, China, and the Eurasian landmass. This shift has been driven by Iran’s frustration over the US-driven policy of economic sanctions, and the inability and/or unwillingness on the part of the collective West to find a path forward that would see these sanctions lifted. The failure of the Iranian nuclear deal (the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA) to produce the kind of economic opportunities that had been promised at its signing has been a major driver behind this Iranian eastward pivot. In its stead, Iran has joined both the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and the BRICS forum and has directed its diplomatic energies into seeing Iran thoroughly and productively integrated into both groups.
A general war with Israel would play havoc on these efforts.
Secondly, but no less important in the overall geopolitical equation for Iran, is the ongoing conflict in Gaza. This is a game-changing event, where Israel is facing strategic defeat at the hands of Hamas and its regional allies, including the Iranian-led axis of resistance. For the first time ever, the issue of Palestinian statehood has been taken up by a global audience. This cause is further facilitated by the fact that the Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu, formed from a political coalition which is vehemently opposed to any notion of Palestinian statehood, finds itself in danger of collapse as a direct result of the consequences accrued from the Hamas attack of October 7, 2023, and the subsequent failure of Israel to defeat Hamas militarily or politically. Israel is likewise hampered by the actions of Hezbollah, which has held Israel in check along its northern border with Lebanon, and non-state actors such as the pro-Iranian Iraqi militias and the Houthi of Yemen which have attacked Israel directly and, in the case of the Houthi, indirectly, shutting down critical sea lines of communication which have the result of strangling the Israeli economy.
But it is Israel that has done the most damage to itself, carrying out a genocidal policy of retribution against the civilian population of Gaza. The Israeli actions in Gaza are the living manifestation of the very hubris and power-driven policies I warned about back in 2006-2007. Then, I said that the US would not be willing to be a passenger in a policy bus driven by Israel that would take us off the cliff of an unwinnable war with Iran.
Through its criminal behavior toward the Palestinian civilians in Gaza, Israel has lost the support of much of the world, putting the United States in a position where it will see its already-tarnished reputation irreparably damaged, at a time when the world is transitioning from a period of American-dominated singularity to a BRICS-driven multipolarity, and the US needs to retain as much clout in the so-called “global south” as possible.
The US has tried—unsuccessfully—to take the keys out of the ignition of Netanyahu’s suicide bus ride. Faced with extreme reticence on the part of the Israeli government when it comes to altering its policy on Hamas and Gaza, the administration of President Joe Biden has begun to distance itself from the policies of Netanyahu and has put Israel on notice that there would be consequences for its refusal to alter its actions in Gaza to take US concerns into account.
Any Iranian retaliation against Israel would need to navigate these extremely complicated policy waters, enabling Iran to impose a viable deterrence posture designed to prevent future Israeli attacks while making sure that neither its policy objectives regarding a geopolitical pivot to the east, nor the elevation of the cause of Palestinian statehood on the global stage, were sidetracked.
The Iranian attack on Israel appears to have successfully maneuvered through these rocky policy shoals. It did so first and foremost by keeping the United States out of the fight. Yes, the United States participated in the defense of Israel, helping shoot down scores of Iranian drones and missiles. This engagement was to the benefit of Iran, since it only reinforced the fact that there was no combination of missile defense capability that could, in the end, prevent Iranian missiles from hitting their designated targets.
The targets Iran struck—two air bases in the Negev desert from which aircraft used in the April 1 attack on the Iranian consulate had been launched, along with several Israeli air defense sites—were directly related to the points Iran was trying to make in establishing the scope and scale of its deterrence policy. First, that the Iranian actions were justified under Article 51 of the UN Charter—Iran retaliated against those targets in Israel directly related to the Israeli attack on Iran, and second, that Israeli air defense sites were vulnerable to Iranian attack. The combined impact of these two factors is that all of Israel was vulnerable to being struck by Iran at any time, and that there was nothing Israel or its allies could do to stop such an attack.
This message resonated not only in the halls of power in Tel Aviv, but also in Washington, DC, where US policy makers were confronted with the uncomfortable truth that if the US were to act in concert with Israel to either participate in or facilitate an Israeli retaliation, then US military facilities throughout the Middle East would be subjected to Iranian attacks that the US would be powerless to stop.
This is why the Iranians placed so much emphasis on keeping the US out of the conflict, and why the Biden administration was so anxious to make sure that both Iran and Israel understood that the US would not participate in any Israeli retaliatory strike against Iran.
The “Missiles of April” represent a sea-change moment in Middle Eastern geopolitics—the establishment of Iranian deterrence that impacts both Israel and the United States. While emotions in Tel Aviv, especially among the more radical conservatives of the Israeli government, run high, and the threat of an Israeli retaliation against Iran cannot be completely discounted, the fact is the underlying policy objective of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the course of the past 30-plus years, namely to drag the US into a war with Iran, has been put into checkmate by Iran.
Moreover, Iran has been able to accomplish this without either disrupting its strategic pivot to the east or undermining the cause of Palestinian statehood. “Operation True Promise,” as Iran named its retaliatory attack on Israel, will go down in history as one of the most important military victories in the history of modern Iran, keeping in mind that war is but an extension of politics by other means. The fact that Iran has established a credible deterrence posture without disrupting major policy goals and objectives is the very definition of victory. https://www.globalresearch.ca/missiles-april-scott-ritter/5854779Simplicius has a lot of missile details, specifics and video analysis of Iranian missiles striking Israel.
Iran came out the big winner by demonstrating all the previously-outlined abilities of bypassing the West’s densest AD shields.
Here’s why I think in some ways this conclusion to be the more correct in the long term.
Firstly, one of the common counterarguments is that Israel possesses nuclear weapons, which ultimately trumps anything Iran can throw at them. But in reality, now that Iran has proven the ability to penetrate Israel, Iran too can cause nuclear devastation by striking the Israeli Dimona nuclear power plant. Destroyed nuclear plants would produce far more radioactive chaos than the relatively ‘clean’ modern nuclear weapons. Furthermore, Israel is much smaller than the comparatively gigantic Iran. Iran can take many nuclear hits and survive; but a single mass nuclear event in Israel could irradiate the entire country, making it uninhabitable...
..This was Iran’s very first foray into such a direct strike. It can be argued that they gained critical data and metrics from the entire Western alliance’s defensive capabilities as well as Israeli defensive vulnerabilities. This means that there is an implied threat that any future attack of this scale could be far more effective, as Iran may now ‘calibrate’ said attack to maximize what it saw were any failings or weaknesses on its part last night. Russia has had two years of launching such strikes, and it has only been semi-recently that they’ve calibrated and fine tuned the precise timings of the sophisticated multi-layered drone-ALCM-ballistic triple threat attack. Iran can improve with each iteration as well and maximize/streamline the effectiveness with each attempt.
Fourthly, there is the now-confirmed mass discrepancy of operational costs:
Israel’s defense of last night’s Iranian missile and drone attack is estimated to have cost over $1.3 billion in jet fuel, surface-to-air missile interceptors, air-to-air missiles, and other military equipment utilized by the Israeli air defense array; with an “Arrow 3” hypersonic anti-ballistic missile alone believed to cost between $5-20 million.
One unconfirmed source claimed Iran’s attack cost as little as $30M, while the number floated for the West’s interceptions is around $1B to $1.3B.

The Zaporozhye nuclear power plant is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe. The former Ukrainian nuclear power plant has been under Russian control since the end of February 2022 and was already attacked by Kiev in 2022. When IAEA experts finally arrived there in September 2022, Kiev shifted the shelling to the surrounding area, the nearby city of Energodar, which was built during Soviet times especially for the nuclear power plant’s employees. Since the beginning of April, the nuclear power plant itself has been shot at almost daily by the Ukrainian army. https://www-anti–spiegel-ru.translate.goog/2024/kiew-beschiesst-neuerdings-fast-taeglich-das-akw-saporoschje/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp John Ward, The Slog: Putin’s China/Iran deal spells end of US hegemony dream
Russia, China, and Iran conduct regular joint exercises in the Arabian Sea. Those exercises have increased in both scope and frequency in recent years.
Both Russia and China are investing vast sums of capital in Iran, much of it in the energy sector and in ambitious transportation projects aiming to construct fast and efficient trade corridors linking China, Iran, and Russia as primary nodes of Eurasian commerce.
Arms and technology transfers between the three countries have reached unprecedented levels.
Audaciously, Vladimir Putin has thrown down a hard-as-nails metal gauntlet.
It now transpires that Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov late the week before last concluded several days of intensive talks with Chinese leaders, including both Wang Yi and Xi Jinping. In its account of the talks, the Chinese government’s flagship media organ, Global Times, summarised (in the words of prominent CPC commentator Li Haidong) the current state of the Russia/China relationship:
“China and Russia will not target any third party, but if hegemonic forces threaten China and Russia, or threaten world peace, China and Russia will stand together and fight to protect their own interests and safeguard world peace together.”
This is simple diplo-speak to show the West that Russia, China, and Iran recognize that an attack against any one of them would constitute an existential threat to them all. The strategic interests of all three countries are now inextricably intertwined.
Most importantly, they are united in a single overriding strategic objective: to dismantle the dominion of the long-reigning Anglo-American empire. The Speech That Got Me Banned From Germany , BY YANIS VAROUFAKIS 4/13/24

Spirulina Significantly Reduces COVID-19 Mortality: Study (Half an ounce of blur-green algae per day was life-saving.)
Hospitalized COVID-19 patients who took spirulina had a lower risk of death than those who did not, according to results of a randomized controlled trial recently published in Frontiers in Immunology.
Study participants took spirulina for six days. No deaths were recorded in the spirulina group, while 15 percent of those who only received standard treatment died.
“The overall results of the present study showed that a six-day course of Spirulina platensis plus the standard treatment of COVID-19 was superior in the recovery of patients compared to standard treatment alone,” the authors wrote.
The study was conducted at two Iranian hospitals, where 189 patients were randomized to take 15.2 grams of spirulina capsules alongside standard COVID-19 treatment or only receive standard treatment. Previous research showed that this dosage of spirulina would provide potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects.

..Mounting evidence indicates that these vaccines, like many others, do not generate sterilizing immunity, leaving people vulnerable to recurrent infections. Additionally, it has been discovered that the mRNA vaccines inhibit essential immunological pathways, thus impairing early interferon signaling. Within the framework of COVID-19 vaccination, this inhibition ensures an appropriate spike protein synthesis and a reduced immune activation. Evidence is provided that adding 100 % of N1-methyl-pseudouridine (m1Ψ) to the mRNA vaccine in a melanoma model stimulated cancer growth and metastasis, while non-modified mRNA vaccines induced opposite results, thus suggesting that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines could aid cancer development. Based on this compelling evidence, we suggest that future clinical trials for cancers or infectious diseases should not use mRNA vaccines with a 100 % m1Ψ modification, but rather ones with the lower percentage of m1Ψ modification to avoid immune suppression. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38583833/ From No Disease to Stage IV Colon Cancer in Four Months: A Case Report (”Turbo-cancer, COVID-19 vaccination status not mentioned at all.)

The Iranian missile strike was a fabulous success.
Western Media Whores are suppressing the real story as usual but Iran demonstrated how Israeli AD (Duh’merican AD) can’t stop the big ballistic missiles that Iran has and neither can the Empire of Lies Military Mafia.
So sad :>(
Iran’s missile launch cost hundreds of millions but the Empire of Lies and Zionazis spend over a BILLION and missed the Big Boomers that hit the Zionazi air bases.
Aces!” ……A senior American official told ABC News that at least nine Iranian missiles penetrated Israeli air defenses and hit two Israeli air bases.
He added that five ballistic missiles hit the Nevatim Air Base, causing damage to a C-130 transport plane, a runway, and storage facilities.
The official said that four additional ballistic missiles hit the Nevatim Air Base.
Of course, Israel keeps mum on the fate of Golan Heights installation.
But my video explaining some extremely important technical issues behind those nine which penetrated (in reality the number is larger) Israeli (which is not really that Israeli) AD and why Israel military top is shaking will be up soon.
It is as much the American failure as it is Israeli one. “
The antics of politicians and bureaucrats are of little significance when one examines the big picture.
We are living through a ‘carbon pulse’.
Previous carbon pulses occurred much more slowly than the present [industrial human] one, but nevertheless led to mass extinctions.
We must expect mass extinction on an unprecedented scale of we continue to desequester the carbon that the Earth sequestered tens of millions of years ago or hundreds of millions of years ago (Ends of the World -Peter Brannan).

When asked if she were an optimist, she paused and she said, ‘Yes. I’m an optimist who worries a lot.’ So let’s be optimistic. But let’s also make sure that we take our worry into action in order to beat back the dark forces that want to turn us back. Let’s be gutsy together.”

Mr Ritter himself described 2 decades as protector of Israel. That seems to give anyone the right to lead into a comment with it. Beyond that your comments are indicative of a complex. Not constructive that I can see.”At the same time that Mr Ritter described his time as a protector of Israel he explained why he USED TO HAVE such an opinion during a certain period in the past (basically because he was doing his job as a UN weapons inspector and as such had not properly considered the viewpoints, experiences and fundamental humanity of the Palestinians).
Since that time he has VERY publicly admitted his error and also VERY ADAMANTLY changed his mind about that Zionist state and now views it with deeply felt condemnation of that nation’s depraved, cowardly acts of evil.
Dr D Rich left that part out, (and insinuated that I too was some sort of Israel booster.) He is welcome to go fuck himself for both of those unprovoked cheap shots) but to top it all off (and what genuinely pisses me off) is that Dr Rich then implied (for no discernable reason except his own nasty attitude) that I, too, supported Israel, which I do not. He knows that, too, which makes his lie an intentional lie. I guess that wasn’t enough for him, so just to top things off he goes on to just pull out of his ass the notion that I am somehow at fault for Scott Ritter not talking much about the Attempted Covid Democide of the Human Race (which I would suppose Ritter avoided as a topic because, a) it was outside his field of expertise, and b) nobody asked him about it.
Please explain how my comments were indicative of a complex. D Rich lied. I called him a liar, and proved it. What’s complicated about that?
On the little puzzle, in each of the successive cell-triangles cascading down diagonally to the lower right, the lower cell is what’s left when you subtract the left cell from the right cell. This continues all the way to the bottom, passing 15 on the way.
Like I said, “flow.”
Freud and Bernays –
The masses are ignorant and irrational. They cannot be trusted to make good decisions on their own so they must be controlled by (we) the smarter ones (jewpigs)
Century of the Self.
Dawned on me a while back- that as Bernays mastered the art of calibrated distraction for the masses in the form of Capitalistic consumerism using ‘public relations’, ‘marketing’ and ‘psycological manipulation’ – we have entered a new realm of consumer consumption.
From capitalistic consumers to identity consumers.
Bernays realized he could manipulate the masses based on his Uncle Freuds theories of irrational human “feelings” – and sell lots of products while simultaneously controlling them. Buy this product as an extension of your own unique self and it will make you “happy”.
As America became self absorbed with buying crap believing it would make them both happy and unique in appearance- they became burdened with debt, junk and depression. The majority of Americans are now obese and medicated (drugged) on pharma poison for their depression, anxiety, sleep problems and any other bs they can be sold to make them “feel” better.
Just look at the trends of what is being sold as the new unique cool. Transgender mutilation.
Identity consumerism, shifting from “what I have” to “what I am”.Tattoos- “look at me, look at my tattoo, my tattoo artist, my original uniqueness, my next tatoo”.
Face, neck, thighs, entire back, sleeves…. psst- notice which demographic group does NOT have tattoos?From hair colors to piercings to tattoos to um what? Body “gender” mutilation- to new genders?
Parents getting in on the “Frankenstein my kid”, permanently. Trust the science ?An entire new wave of consumers consuming themselves. Capitalism unregulated cannibalizes itself. Human behavior not grounded in reality destoys and consumes itself. We have arrived.
Freud was on to something with his creepy unconscious desires of theorizeng kids subconsciously wanting to fuck their parents, Many now believe he was just projecting his jew pedophile real self. Either way look what has manifested- Parents and adults literally and figuratively fucking kids- their own kids.
Whether its ‘supporting or encouraging’ your child to mutilate their body and mind into another ‘gender’, or the female teacher raping her teenage student in the back seat, or the President raping kids on an island- or raping your child with vaccines and pharma pills-
The progression of a miserable society not finding happiness with the promise of buying new objects- to finding happiness by fabricating yourself into a new sex body- with the help of “science” and “psychology”.
My God our society has fallen into insane monsters.
…
100% of trans identifying have parents with a borderline, narcissistic, antisocial, or histrionic personality disorder. Traits include lack of empathy & remorse, exploitation of others, attention seeking behavior, shallow emotions, superficial charm, selfish goals & behavior.
!00% of anyone involved with this insanity- pharma, Drs, surgeons, parents, kids, media, politicians, society- all of them- are fucking insane. They should all be put down like a dying animal, all except the kids.
And fuck the entire ‘gay community’ with razor blades until dead for encouraging this shit. This is a crime against all children and humanity. All, and I do mean ALL Liberals fall into this sick mentally ill category of – borderline, narcissistic, antisocial, or histrionic personality disorder. Traits include lack of empathy & remorse, exploitation of others, attention seeking behavior, shallow emotions, superficial charm, selfish goals & behavior…
Einstein the jew was correct- “if you want to understand infinity, ponder human stupidity”
Thanks to jews like Freud and Bernays- American Liberals have sold themselves into objects of consumption who are literally eating themselves alive turning into frankensexmonsters.
Liberal cities have already become tyrannical hell holes- wall them off and into their own sanctuary cities and let them kill themselves off. If they want to push this insanity on themselves then seal them off- if they continue pushing this on others- there’s a remedy for that too.
Liberals are not fun anymore- they are pathetic and disgusting.
And it looks like AFKTT just can’t help himself from getting lost in the weeds. “Factoids” are different from “facts,” as they exist in a falsified universe — but still exist. They are zombies and just don’t mean what the cultists need them to mean to placate their neuroses. Wrong premises => foolish lies. But they get a tiny dispensation insofar as it’s honest idiocy if they first fool themselves and only then work on the ignorant linear-thinking authority-addled sheep. But mostly it’s just corrupted manipulation and righteousness as they serve the agendas of some hiding evil biosphere-destroying Masters. The green new deal (or green whatever) has done more to degrade the biosphere than the “scourge” it is attacking. Lie after lie…
Qui bono? That’s as difficult to answer than the related question, “Who is the King of the world?” Until we answer that question there is nothing effective we can do to end this assault (and others). As Dr. D asked, “Who sent the Memo?”
Only then can the pitchforks do their job.When Israel decided to bomb the Iranian embassy, obviously there wasn’t an “adult” in the meeting making that decision!
Iran played Israel’s blunder beautifully.There is some indirect evidence that Ukraine has at least run out of S300 missiles because there have been no recent bombings of Ukrainian apartment buildings from failing and falling S300 first stage boosters/warheads.
Dr. D mentioned glass Coke bottles the other day.
Well remember my Billy Graham, the one who taught me how to properly abuse my company’s expense account?
I did such a bang up job of my expense accountg, that the supervisor Fred angryly phone Billy Graham just to tell him, “I didn’t send him (me) to you, for you to teach him how to fill out expense accounts, but to learn how to build draglines!”
I never heard Billy laugh so long and hard!
Billy was very pleased with himself that he had gotten Fred’s goat so good!
Of course Fred approved my expense account!
Billy left him no choice!Yeah, that good olde Billy Graham!
Well, we were building a medium large dragline with a 380 foot long boom and a 2 garage sized bucket up on a small hill in the middle of a corn field.
It was such a big local landmark that the Indiana National Guard’s low flying phantom jets used to use us as a local turning point in their flights.Back to the glass Coke bottles.
By noon, Billy Graham would order hamburgers, fries, and a Coke for lunch, since he was very hungry not having had any breakfast on account of being rather busy.
Since there were 6 of us, our glass Cokes came in a handy six pack carry carton.
Each of us would pick a glass Coke bottle then proceed to eat our burgers.
Then with lunch out of the way, we would then look on the bottom of our glass Coke bottle to see where Coke had made the glass bottle!
Then we would get out the Rand – McNaley map and dertmine who’s glass Coke bottle was made the furthest away from where we were!
If your glass bottle was made the furthest away, you were that day’s winner of the contest!
A silly game but Billy Graham had a such way that it was great fun and everybody looked forward to the daily ritual!Well you can not do that sort thing with Coke plastic PET bottles these days!
Little did I know it at the time, I would later, in my second career, work for the biggest plastic bottle machine manufacturer that supplied all the machines and molds for Coke’s plastic bottles!
I even visited/worked in some of Coke’s bottling plants too.
Small word isn’t it!Was that the same Billy Graham of Evangelical fame? If so then small world indeed, and I bet you’ve got some great stories (such as, for example, did that Coke bottle contest involve any exchange of money, as in GAMBLING?)
jb-hb Did you bother to actually watch the Nate Hagens? My guess is no.
I cannot be responsible for your refusal to become informed: only you can be responsible for that.When is your flight to China, AFKTT
I have no intention of flying anywhere.
As for the (repeated) graph, I answered.why China’s emissions appear to be so high: China is manufacturing goods for previously developed nations that are now largely post-industrial. There are embedded CO2 emissions in all manufactured goods.
By the way, all mainstream economics is fraud and jiggery pokery.
Also, there is no such thing as the ‘green economy’. What is described as the ‘green economy’ is as a subset of the fossil fuel economy.
What is interesting is the effect that diminishing supplies of liquid fuels (Peak Oil) will have on mainstream economics. The temporary propping up of the system via fracking is coming to an end (conventional extraction having peaked).
And it looks like AFKTT just can’t help himself from getting lost in the weeds
A.C. Please explain.
Everything is connected, and energy and environment are the master cards that trump everything else in the system..
Dammit, I wanted to avoid reference to Trump (big yawn) but trump is the best word.
DeeBS and Dr D…the insinuator detectors.
I guess.You, DeeBS just gave Scott “personal protector of Israel Ritter a full-throated endorsement yesterday.
Was it?Here’s another attempt in Scotty’s words:
Maj. Scott ““I spent one decade protecting Israel from Iraqi missiles. I spent another decade trying to protect Israel from Iranian missiles. Ritter
Israel changed?
Scott took 20 years to notice something, but not the megalomania dripping from his prose.How’s that? It’s straight from RIM’s editing construct.
Then Ritter drops the bad daddy, metaphorical hammer on Israel, the bad country child who refused to play peacefully in The Sandbox (Marine euphemism). Scott took 20 years = 2 decades to figure THAT out??
However, objectively, Ritter’s snail’s pace personal journey of dimwittery was exceeded on today’s very same news feed by Suchkov.
Suchkov exhibits a bigger with love and fear than America when he/she/it invokes the LOVE of President Barack “child murderer” Obama.Here it is:
-
Barack Obama’s 2008 election victory swung the ideological pendulum in the opposite direction, favouring love over fear. Administrators from the Clinton presidency returned to the White House, and Obama himself spoke of ‘inclusion’, a new globalisation and hopes for a democratic revival
3 American citizens killed on Obama’s watch
Anwar al-Awlaki, his two children 16yo Abdulrahman and 9yo Nawar would tell an different story about Obama’s love and peace. By different I meant inverted. Nawar was murdered by criminals in uniform 9 days after Trump’s inauguration. So the order most certainly came from Obama but Donald can share in the criminal indictment. All three folk murdered by Obama’s military were born in Los Estados Unidos, unquestionably U.S. citizens unlike those folks who continue to question Obama’s questionable place of birthI heard HRC, one of Obama’s inner circle, said Gaddafi “went out pretty peacefully too”.

* On the little war thingy, in each of the successive attacks cascading down diagonally to the abyss, the lowest blow is what’s left when you subtract decency from all participants.
Well,AFKTT, “getting lost in the weeds” is what happens when the fundamental premises of your fetish/ideology have been falsified yet you continue to trot out barely-connected factoids in a fog of distraction and irrelevancy. Being addicted to panic-porn helps, too, as does being incapable of comfortably intuiting experiences with the perspective of a complexity-aware paradigm, however tentative that might be.
They are “zombie factoids” in that their potentially-lateral-thinking hypothesis/organism is dead but they remain “real” in a linear-thinking fortress/prison of reductionist neurosis-belief, like a tapeworm in a corpse.
