Wot a shock: month 4 and no rate increases. What is that, 16 months? “Powell Pivot!!”
“Police Scotland Deluged With Nearly 4,000 Complaints As New Hate Crime Law Is Weaponized
Deconstructing society wherever it is found. Okay, they deconstruct; can they also construct? No, not in a way that 100% of the people aren’t miserable, even the apparatchiks on top.
“Reuters Has Ulterior Motives For Reporting That Iran Tipped Russia Off Before The Crocus Attack
Oh. Well. If REUTERS says it, I’m sure the FSB will stop whatever they’re doing and call it “case closed.” …Is this the same “Reuters” who takes millions each year from MI6? Revealed only last year but now everyone credits them and forgot?
“Chicago Police Called To Illegal Immigrant Shelter Hundreds Of Times In 2023, Records Show
That’s daily. Who knew? These are the saints of the earth. They were all serving long terms in Venezuela because they were all framed.
“He has to recuse himself now. There’s clearly at least an appearance of a conflict here. That’s enough in itself.”
Republicans are so cute. “Can’t see nothin’ with this beam in my eye!” Yes, the standard is the “Appearance” and that’s where it should be since it upholds the far more vital “confidence” in government entirely. And that’s hard enough when you all play golf together, even in NY, but we have people going past Stalin, Solzhenitsyn leaving them as tiny dots on the horizon, and nothing. Just like “we’ve” already killed 6M people and nothin’. Not even a recognition of killing everyone worldwide in a GwoT MIGHT have happened and MIGHT be “a bad thing”. Just interesting contrast as I’ve been saying lately, they’re still saying “If we don’t look out, free speech might be in danger!” “If we don’t look out, we might have corruption!” IF??? That ship landed, was deboarded, dismantled, and built this Sci-fi panopticon 25, if not 45 years ago. But now if we don’t look out we might stop using horse and buggies. Right.
It’s like the NYT Beauty contest back when. Not “Which picture is the most beautiful?”, it’s “Which picture will the OTHER people think is the most beautiful?” And this is the same in stocks, politicos, but also here, in “Consensus.” And the Social Engineers know it. It’s their one job to keep us from establishing a rational consensus. Consensus, something, anything, is happening. Like, for instance, that mass-sterilizing and amputating your children and killing 6M brown people might be “wrong”.
Same here: Consensus the legal judicial system has gone off the rails for everyone and it not “an exception.”
““There is no basis for the special counsel’s office, this court, or a jury to second-guess President Trump’s document-specific PRA categorizations,”
There are several arrows in the air with this, but one is WHO is allowed to declassify? Smith seems to think the President has no authority, but the Derp State and anyone in government can just override him ‘cause they feel like it. This happened like 100 times and 100 times more with direct military orders like “Leave Syria.” Who’s the President? Nobody. He don’t run nothin’, WE do. You vote for NOTHING. You the People DON’T EXIST.
“• In America the Legal Process Is the Punishment (Paul Craig Roberts)
They will then “Leak” the names of everyone. And nothing will happen to the AG “Leakers”. Great example of having “Good faith”, that is: internal morality. Without internal morality, no law matters. As we see daily. We “Obey” courts, then ignore courts at will, need evidence, deny evidence, prosecute some, not others, or have no trials and all, making up “’Cause: Reasons”.
Adams: “”Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other,” RELIGIOUS people. And in fact, NO government will work for an irreligious people. Which is why they go after religion first. It will be hell on earth, run by demons, “Hell is empty, all the demons are here” Shakespeare.
“• Zelensky Ignored Interview Requests – Tucker Carlson (RT)
Well according to Ignatious, (reported to be top CIA mouthpiece) Ze is locked in a bunker behind sandbags, not a soul around him. WHY are you writing that front page news for our Minion Apparatchiks in DC to read, sir?
“NATO leaders are devising ways to limit Donald Trump’s potential leverage over Ukraine by ensuring the continued supply of arms to Kiev does not depend on Washington,”
That’s why we have democracy. First, we provide no information to voters, then who they elect in are allowed to change nothing. The president cannot reverse Presidential Orders ’cause we say so.
“Luke Harding still works at the Guardian. What a disgrace.”
The Guardian cannot be considered a newspaper until he’s gone. At a minimum. Note something else about this: One America News just reported – launched – the latest Donald Trump mass hoax. Doesn’t matter what it is, maybe the shoving thing they had AI video generate. It’s the ecosystem here: People no longer move to NYC, take the R Train to the Daily Herald office and tip their hat to the Chief Editor in his smoky office. There is nothing. Some guy, somewhere, has an internet connection. No one’s ever met him. He writes articles and is “Brought in” to the OAN network. This is like +50 years in “AP” and “Reuters”: ANYONE WITH A TELETYPE CAN POST. And yes, literally the CIA, MI6 have a teletype in the front secretary and drop “Press Releases” into the “News” feed. Like AI, associated offices in NYT and Muncie Daily Mercury ignore them.
Yeah? What happens when there no longer IS a Muncie Daily Mercury to tell new reporters everything on the teletype feed is Bulls—t? That Kohler Faucets Inc bought a newsfeed and is releasing articles on their new toilet flushing? We already know, there’s no Copy Editor – the daily guy who does punctuation, grammar, spelling, and clarity. He also kicks back to say “Is this real?”, “Do you have sources for anything?” and “Does this meet the standards (and purpose) of the paper?” calling in the general editor. None of that. They are ½ a slice away from a Reddit Board. Wikipedia probably has stricter standards.
So “The Guardian” is a skin suit, as they all are, depending on you THINKING, with persistence of vision, that anybody works there and it’s not just some random people posting contradictory, unchecked, unsourced things because they now not only have only one editor, but 2,300 reporters instead of 60 good ones we know and have all met. No editor could POSSIBLY keep track. Which they don’t even try.
So when you think “Guardian” or “WSJ” or whatever, they are all like this online. And some are decayed more than others, some less than you think. Nor is it “new” as I’ve said, as the AP/Reuters particularly have never checked anyone since they started in 1940 and their posted articles have spelling that would make a 4th grader blush, where you would have to be “America’s Top Psychic” to figure out what the heck happened in that report about a simple train crash.
As I’ve said, check your local paper, whose reporter lives there, against someone who was involved in that simple car crash and you’ll find out they get every detail wrong. Wrong names, locations, events, wrong time, wrong vehicle, simple stuff. Now expand to the “We are attributing intent” of invisible, unproven actions at the national/international level. It’s crap.
Okay, this is REALLY HARD. It’s tough work. But you have to at least TRY, and to hold someone accountable to standards, squishy as they are. They don’t even try. Good faith. You have to have religion, an internal compass, to attempt good faith.
“• Ukraine’s Starting to Get Dangerous (James Rickards)
He’s right, this is the danger part. They are desperate to start a nuclear WWIII: just look at Israel. They will keep bombing Iran until they can be “The Victim™” again. As Israel are all northern Europeans, they learned this all from Europe. Oh WHY did you sink the Lusitania which was filled to the brim with gold and bombs? After warning the Anglos for a year, then printing a direct news article on this ship by name? Well, they’re just crazy madmen, I guess. We wuz wronged! Who can figure the ways of the Baby-Killing Huns?
Anyway, everything’s up: bombing a nuclear power plant? Sending nuclear F16? (Or F35s?) Genociding Transnistria? Sending every man in Romania to Odessa? Sure! all of it and more. And we’ve now seen they won’t stop until Russia stops them. With bombs and scaring the s—t out them, laying them quite flat. They have to be terrified out of their psychotic fugue state and into seeing reality for 60 seconds. Even that may barely work, but it can start.
“For years Russia was handicapped by its pro-Western intellectuals, but the West’s demonization of Russia has forced them to change their spots or to leave.”
So are we. As yesterday, replace everything “Russia” with “The American People” and it’s the same.
“Schools and universities are propaganda centers against white Americans,”
Maybe, but they’re also propaganda centers against Black Americans, dis-serving them far worse. Oh don’t learn math, Johnnie, ‘cause “racism”. I’m sure that won’t come back to bite you or nothin’. Meanwhile White people are so put upon they have to rise up and be twice as good, competent and motivated to survive. You’re making them STRONGER, you fools. They were on the couch playing video games and doing D&D and you just d—ked with their s—t so they had to pick sides and take action. Ah, but the chronically mentally-ill can never help it.
“Instead of surrendering to a post-Cold War set-up, in which it was left with no say, Russia has begun pushing back more and more against the hegemonic US-centered system.”
Just like these guys. YOU made that happen, Nuland, Blinken. Russia was on a leash looking at you. Now they reject any leash.
““I would really like… to receive factual material on this topic from the American side. That is, to whom and when did they give this information?” she added
Alexander had a good idea: IF this exists, get permission and release what the actual communication was to the public. Russia certainly will. And we all know why that won’t happen: The West gave them some vague unactionable bulls—t that was only for the 7th, 8th, and 9th, with no re-up for any day after that, much less (On the 22s!!!) the 22nd Of March.
Okay, so WHY am I reading this? WHY do they care? They think if they whack Putin in the Western press, he will care? All Russia will say “Oooooooh, the WSJ said….!!!” No, they can’t help it, the denial means they DID know something and were involved and it’s something really BIG. …Which with the pieces, we all know. Nuland set it all up, got caught and bounced, and the ops were delayed but went forward anyway with our guys, connections, money, and planning. This is CYA spin to inoculate AMERICANS against the truth: that “we” are a terrorist government, or at least we have a terrorist cells in there running parts and not being removed even when found. They’re defended and promoted. Really? By WHOM? Who’s above these State Dept, CIA-Analyst levels?
“With Pre-Orchestrated Media Blitz (Sp.)

This isn’t the Soviet Union with its massive tank armies poised to roll over Western Europe. And Soviet communism is long dead, so there’s no ideological basis for Russia to invade Europe.
These days Russia is a conservative, Orthodox Christian nation.
But more importantly, Putin has absolutely no incentive to invade any of these nations, which are NATO members.
What do they have that he wants? All it would do is trigger Article 5 of the NATO Charter, which stipulates that an attack on one member is an attack on all, inviting a massive NATO response.
At that point, you’re on the fast track to nuclear war.

Political manipulation of The Court is history not news. In 1869 the size of the court was reduced to seven members to prevent Andrew Johnson from filling vacant seats and was restored to nine members when Ullysses S. Grant took office. The 1937 Roosevelt “court packing plan” is perhaps more infamous than famous. The refusal to confirm justices in 2016 ended with confirmation of Gorsuch in 2017. Manipulation of the highest court within states has a longer and more elaborate history than that of The Supreme Court of the United States.
The open attempts to bring the court system under the control of political operatives was considered the norm in political discoure as long as i have been following the governance of my nation. The effort to hobble the court system and reduce a tri-cameral system to a system of unitary political control was hailed as savvy maneuvering with each change of party ascendancy in the twentieth century United States.
The reality of all of these attempts to politicize the court system is a weakening of the constitutional structures, state and federal. There is ample history that from the earliest days of the republic, The United States of America, if defeat came it would come from within the nation itself. Self serving attempts to hamper the constitutional process always lead to injustice. One hundred and fifty five years of effort to render the judicial process a political process have proved successful. One more feather in the cap of those seeking exclusive access to opportunity. The surest path to majority rule is to limit access to the courts and deny equal protection before the law, followed closely by corruption of sufferage.

In two public performances of less than two minutes apiece, Chrystia Freeland (lead images), Canada’s Deputy Prime Minister, Finance Minister, and leader of Canada’s war against Russia, has demonstrated bizarre facial and upper torso symptoms.Political analysts and psychiatrists have been asked if they believe Freeland is suffering from a clinical pathology or drug abuse. Cocaine use has been ruled out. According to a medical psychiatrist, “the display [of symptoms] is remarkable. And just as remarkable, they disappear when [Freeland] takes the tribune from the prime minister and starts to make a speech herself. The control of torso, eyes, and speech she shows then is not consistent with chronic cocaine use.” The source, who specializes in treating drug addiction, says that Freeland’s display of symptoms does not reveal the twitches, tics, or other involuntary muscular movements usually seen with cocaine users.
“What can I make of the relentless movements,” the source commented. “[They] are more or less non-stop and they serve to draw attention away from everybody but herself. In her speech, there was no restlessness. It was fluent and clear. But she was the centre of attention then. It seems to me that with all her restless movements taking so many different forms she could still be the centre of attention…In some ways she was like the child who must always have attention.”
Another expert source believes Freeland’s symptoms have been diagnosed clinically in the US as Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD). This has been reported in a research paper published in January of this year: “a chronic and enduring condition marked by a consistent pattern of attention-seeking behaviours and an exaggerated display of emotions. Typically emerging in late adolescence or early adulthood, individuals with HPD are often characterized as narcissistic, self-indulgent, and flirtatious. Individuals with HPD may feel undervalued when not in the spotlight, leading to a persistent need for validation…People presenting with HPD typically demonstrate rapidly shifting and shallow emotions that others may perceive as insincere…Women are four times more likely to be diagnosed with histrionic personality disorder than men.”
Canadian political analysts report that Freeland’s condition has long been recognized among male voters; less so among female voters. The analysts also note that as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau loses general voter approval, and also the support of his Liberal Party constituency, Freeland’s ambition to replace him before the national election next year, is becoming more obvious.
Her HPD symptoms, the sources say, become extreme when she appears in public with Trudeau, revealing her impatience to replace him.

April 4, 2024 at 6:19 pm #156183Dr. DParticipantSadly, I don’t understand any of the four questions.
2) The original Constitution can only mean what it means, any “Strict Construction” or “Intent” is all Ret-Conned by us afterwards . The Founders themselves didn’t entirely agree on what it “Meant”, but unquestioningly the Bill of Rights IS the Constitution. The Constitution was Refused to be ratified – ever – without them. And good thing too, I guess, since even with them they ignore all 10 daily, even “Housing soldiers”. But the founders would unfailingly be considered Ultra “Right”, like Confederate Revivalists, wherein the Federal level is essentially powerless in our perception. Adams and Hamilton were both pro FEDERAL power, but the reason they had to fight so far and got nowhere is because everyone knew that wasn’t what was written and agreed. To have ANY Federal level was revolutionary in 1800. This is the same as say, Prohibition, where to control and regulate drugs they needed an Amendment to be delegated the power…but not for long. Immediately after every human action and even thought became Federal control. But the FACT it had to be passed shows that as late as 120 years later, the Fed were considered not to have State’s powers. One day, completely by coincidence after 1913, they just “Suddenly did.”
1) Therefore the statement “State’s Rights” was true then and true now, however, we started from exclusively states, and have moved to the Federal level duplicating nearly everything such that we now pay for double governments, who lately all conflict with each other. (Border) These are defined in the Constitution and by the courts later up to now, but after 1970 basically everyone ignores everything. As we see, States ignore Drug laws, Feds ignore border laws, States enforce laws they haven’t passed and don’t have to (Covid) and Feds enforce laws they don’t pass of have no delegated powers for(well, everything.) So there is no answer to that question. True everyone agrees it exist, false that everyone disagrees and since it’s radically changed only 4 years, clearly it MUST be illegal since no laws were passed.
3) What do you mean? What is Western Culture? ARE we having a conflict? What kind? Are the Sami “Western”? The Souix? If South Americans and Americans both Western why do they conflict so much? Or with Hungary and Russia? Or UK and US, a people divided by a common language.
Let me try to answer this with what is MEANT. Will WE survive? Yes, we will survive. We will also change, evolve. Will we return to some sort of Enlightenment Western Values? Yes, we will. But by devolving since the only reason they don’t exist now is infinite money and furious, violent effort. Very violent, as Assange. Why? It’s in our hearts and nature.
Sound good? No, the answer is false as the world power is rotating to Asia, and we will be second rate as indeed we already are. This will take generations, and a Generational Cycle is 70-100 years. I don’t mind, as we get a chance to re-connect to “Western Culture” and thereby evolve what that is into something new.
4) I literally don’t know what is meant by Patrick Henry as like all men, he has a complex life.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Henry
I presume you mean “Give me Liberty or Give Me Death”, which since he lived, he wasn’t all that active about. His THOUGHTS are available to everyone on the internet. His ACTIONS of resisting are also always available to everyone, even in China, which protests and resists every day more than any other country. Clearly we can all die in the attempt and many will be happy to help us to that final destination. How about CAN we have that Liberty? No. It is not suitable to every culture and people, and more’s the better. Russia specifically is very Authoritarian, but they also prize Freedom. Because that’s similar but different, it’s a good touchstone. Japan would not prize freedom much at all, but family and social order. Strangely this makes them relatively “free”. This is also why world government won’t work: the people are different and are not intending to kill themselves any time soon. If you think I’m exaggerating, look at Europe who are very “Similar” but still different enough to tear themselves apart immediately, and Europe is not going to Unite but “Break Up” and be as they always were: different states and cultures. And especially now as without money all the immigrants are going home. Europe becomes “Europe”. Not Muslim, not EU and certainly not the Theme Park running the world government. And as they lose that, they too will become again “Western”.April 4, 2024 at 8:00 pm #156184WESParticipantUnder the Judge Merchan gag order, Trump is not allowed to mention that Judge Merchan and family are being paid $10 million by the democrats to prosecute Trump and they will earn even more if they successfully convict Trump.

April 4, 2024 at 8:36 pm #156185WESParticipanttboc :
1. No. But since 1913 states lost to the Fed since Fed can print money while states can not. Recent Texas state vs Fed proves Fed rules states.
2. Since the Fed gov ignores the constitution, these terms are meaningless.
3. Western culture is currently being destroyed so what survives is anyone’s guess. Most of us will be dead so that part of western culture will dies with us. Our replacements don’t seem to value what we did or built as they are too busy destroying it as fast as possible. They don’t seem to be replacing what they are destroying so who knows where we will end up. I suspect the future is as digital slaves.
4. Since in the end we all die. So slavery and death will be our only choice. Freedom will not be one of our options.
One can only hope our masters will be more lenient than what China’s leaders are planning.

https://celiafarber.substack.com/p/israeli-journalist-breaks-bombshell The purported document, perhaps an archetypal force of its own by now. (Was “Nazi” a thing in 1871?): Albert Pike Letter to Mazzini The Illuminati Plan for 3 World Wars, August 15, 1871
The following is a letter, that speculation claimed that Albert Pike wrote to Giuseppe Mazzini in 1871 regarding a conspiracy involving three world wars, that were planned in an attempt to take over the world. The Pike letter to Giuseppe Mazzini was on display in the British Museum Library in London until 1977. This letter has been claimed by many internet sites to reside in the British Library in London, which denies the letter exists. • Giuseppe Mazzini was an Italian revolutionary leader of the mid 1800s as well as the Director of the Illuminati • Albert Pike (historical Masonic figure) was a 33rd degree Freemason, Occultist, Grand Master and creator of the Southern Jurisdiction of the Masonic Scottish Rite Order Following are apparently extracts from the letter, showing how Three World Wars have been planned for many generations.
“The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a fortress of atheistic Communism. The divergences caused by the “agentur” (agents) of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of the war, Communism will be built and used in order to destroy the other governments and in order to weaken the religions.” “The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, International Communism must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom, which would be then restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the final social cataclysm.” “The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the “agentur” of the “Illuminati” between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…
We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”

“That too-good-to-be-true, amazing letter from Confederate General Albert Pike to Freemason Mazzini which describes 3 world wars w/ remarkable prescience has turned out to be a fake. It was concocted by charlatan Leo Taxil and picked up and promoted by sincere but lazy conspiracy researchers like William Guy Carr and David Icke. No record of it exists at its purported repository, the British Museum.” [And then the wave washes the other way…]

Marie Joseph Gabriel Antoine Jogand-Pagès, better known by the pen name Léo Taxil (French: [leo taksil]; March 21, 1854 – March 31, 1907), was a French writer and journalist who became known for his strong anti-Catholic and anti-clerical views. He is also known for the Taxil hoax, a spurious exposé of Freemasonry and the Roman Catholic Church’s opposition to it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A9o_Taxil
April 4, 2024 at 10:13 pm #156188John DayParticipantThe fear of loss by the (hidden) owners is what makes this situation “dangerous”. Jim Rickards, Ukraine’s Starting to Get Dangerous
A lot of people seem to have forgotten about the war in Ukraine. That’s a mistake.
Russia is slowly but steadily defeating Ukraine, which is becoming increasingly obvious to everyone except the most anti-Russian diehards.
That’s leading to desperation in elite Western circles determined to stop Russia one way or the other. In their minds, they simply can’t let Putin win. They think that if Putin wins in Ukraine, he’ll next move on to the Baltic states, Poland and elsewhere.
You know the West is getting desperate based on recent threats by France’s Emmanuel Macron to send troops to Ukraine. Ukrainian military leaders know they can’t win on battlefield [The funding and munitions are being withheld until “mobilization” to “the last Ukrainian” is set.]
Officers who allegedly spoke to the British newspaper were candid about Kiev’s desperate military situation. GUR Brigadier-General Dmitry Timkov said his country was like a patient on life support.
”We are attached to a drip. We have enough drugs to stay alive. But, if the West wants us to win, we need the full treatment,” he admitted, referring to the dwindling quantities of military aid coming from Kiev’s western backers.
Major General Vadim Skibitsky, the deputy head of the GUR, admitted that a Ukrainian victory, widely promised by Kiev, is impossible at the moment. Facing multiple setbacks, the agency had “no choice” but to launch strikes deep inside Russia. He described this as a “NATO-standard procedure, known as center of gravity, or COG.”
https://swentr.site/russia/595341-ukraine-gur-attacks-guardian/ NATO faces a serious threat of collapse of the front line. High-ranking Ukrainian Armed Forces officers, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Politico that there is a serious risk of the front line collapsing if Russia concentrates its offensive on any area of its choosing.
Russian troops both in the number of personnel and in the technologies available in their arsenal. NATO-sponsored Ukraine faces a great risk that its front line could collapse wherever Russia decides to concentrate its offensive.
Thanks to a much larger number of troops and controlled bombs that have been devastating NATO-supported positions for weeks, Russia will likely be able to penetrate the front line and destroy it in some areas, military officials said on condition of anonymity.Simplicius, SITREP 4/3/24: Zelensky Steps Closer to Mobilization Plunge Amid Dire Warnings (“to the last Ukrainian”, and beyond…)
Things continue to feel like a calm before the approaching storm. There is not too much overt activity in the battle space, but various rumblings of a large looming escalation continue to trickle through the grape vine.
In a recent article I had mentioned how the Western press and elite commentariat for the first time began using the taboo ‘C’ word, i.e. “Collapse”, for Ukraine. Now this has opened up the floodgates, causing more and more worried publications to begin turning off their previous holding-the-line narrative filter and actually start describing the Ukrainian situation with truthful urgency.

The US-led bloc has pushed the country to develop a new awareness of itself and its place in the world
Finally, Russia may not have been able to start moving so quickly in the direction of sovereignty had it not been for the Western policies of the past two decades: the increasing demonization of the country and its leadership. These choices have succeeded in making perhaps the initially most Westernizing, pro-European leadership that modern Russia has seen – including notably Putin himself and Dmitry Medvedev – into self-avowed anti-Westerners and determined opponents of US/EU policies.
Thus, rather than forcing Russia change to fit a Western pattern, all that pressure has instead helped the country find itself again.

“Israel has pledged to conduct a thorough investigation into why the aid workers’ vehicles were hit by airstrikes. That investigation must be swift, it must bring accountability, and its findings must be made public. Even more tragically, this is not a stand-alone incident.

Seven WCK workers, including an American and three British nationals, were killed by an Israeli drone that targeted three cars with at least three missiles until there were no survivors left. Israeli officials have claimed it was an accident, an assertion backed by the US, but Andrés said he wasn’t buying the story.
The WCK workers also coordinated with the Israeli military and were traveling along a pre-approved route when they were killed. “This was not just a bad luck situation where ‘oops’ we dropped the bomb in the wrong place,” Andrés said, according to Reuters. “Even if we were not in coordination with the (Israeli military), no democratic country and no military can be targeting civilians and humanitarians.”
Andrés, a Spanish-American, said the US should do more to stop Israel’s slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza. “The US must do more to tell Prime Minister Netanyahu this war needs to end now,” he said.World Central Kitchen Founder Says Israel Targeted His Aid Workers ‘Systematically, Car by Car’

People in the north of Gaza have been forced to survive on an average of 245 calories a day — less than a 400g can of fava beans — since January, as Israeli forces continue their military onslaught, Oxfam has revealed. Over 300,000 people are believed to still be trapped there, unable to leave.
The minuscule amount of food represents less than 12 per cent of the recommended daily 2,100 calories intake needed per person, calculated using demographic data considering variations by age and gender.

UNRWA reported that many of its employees were killed while performing their duty, stressing that humanitarian workers are not legitimate targets and must be protected at all times. https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/unrwa-reports-176-employees-killed-in-since-onset-of-war-on Professor Anthony Hall, Killing International Law. Normalizing Genocide , Now what?
In recent years informal observations have been running rampant about the pervasiveness of lawlessness in the exercise of power. Now its official! The US and Israeli governments have made it so. There is no rule of law at the pinnacle of the global pyramid of wealth and political influence. Might is right. Period.
In the process of maintaining the steadily accelerating pace of the many-faceted genocide in Gaza, both the World Court and the world’s premier legislative body, the UN’s Security Council, have been pushed from the main stage of international affairs…
..As French diplomat, Arnaud Bertrand, observed,
“There’s no overstating how consequential this is for the integrity of international relations. By doing so, the US effectively destroys the world order it largely created after WW2 because it effectively tells everyone that the set of institutions, rules and norms that underpin it are meaningless. We’re effectively now in a world system where everyone realizes the police, the government, the basic set of beliefs, have become completely corrupted. This changes everything…
..The effect of the US announcement that the Security Council’s ruling is not “binding, was to give, yet again, the government of Israel the green light to continue its campaign to eliminate the Palestinian population of Israel under the cover of “eradicating Hamas.” This recent round of duplicitous US manoeuvring at the UN can be seen as chucking a spear into the heart of that already ailing international organization.
One effect of this spear to the UN’s heart, is to clarify that the United States is not only complicit in genocide. The USA must be considered a full-fledged partner with Israel in the genocide of the Palestinian people of Gaza and the West Bank…
..When I faced sharp accusations for standing up for the position that there should be “open debate” on the Holocaust and every other subject, I was moved to think about the nature of the sensitivities surrounding the subject.
I found myself asking if all genocides constitute a holocaust or just some of them. When an event is described as The Holocaust, does it mean that one monumental genocide is meant to tower above all other genocides, all other holocausts? Who gets to decide such things? What are the criteria?
As a Native American Studies Prof. for 20 twenty of my 36 years of teaching university courses, I came to conceive of an inter-generational genocide of Native American peoples unfolding throughout the Western Hemisphere from 1492 until the present.

What I am talking about is the project now underway in the French parliament to further turn the screws on anyone betraying present day political correctness on issues of gender, ethnicity and all the other key elements of identity politics in PRIVATE CONVERSATIONS. Not in public, not on the airwaves, but in the privacy of your own home or otherwise behind closed doors.
To be specific, the parliament has passed in a first reading a very nasty modification to the existing Article R625-7 of the French penal code, which was itself no gift to free thinkers…
..The new text reads Per Linguee.fr:
Insults, defamatory remarks or remarks provoking discrimination against people on the grounds of their ethnic or religious affiliation, gender identity, etc., when these are not public, become offences, punishable by a fine of €3,750.
The new law makes criminally punishable defamation and discrimination in conversations between, shall we say ‘consenting adults,’ in private quarters.
One wonders how remarks made behind closed doors are brought to the attention of the authorities if not by libelous anonymous protectors of public morality worthy of Venice in its worst days...
..I bring this to the attention in particular of my American readers who miss the point entirely that in its disunity today, with pro- and anti-Trump forces splitting the population 50:50, there is far greater freedom of speech than here on the Old Continent, and especially in that supposed bastion of liberty, France.
https://gilbertdoctorow.substack.com/p/freedom-of-speech-in-france-think There is global criticism of the new anti-free speech law in Scotland, including a dare from author J.K. Rowling to arrest her for her criticism of transgender policies. The law is so bad that even the British Prime Minister, in a country previously denounced for attacks on free speech, has demurred from supporting the Scottish law. Now Humza Yousaf, first minister of Scotland, has doubled down in supporting the draconian law while misrepresenting its language.
Yousaf bizarrely claimed that critics have ignored that the legal threshold of “the new offences is very, very high indeed. Your behaviour has to be threatening or abusive and intended to stir up hatred.” It is almost comical in its absurdity. No, a standard based on “stirring up hatred” is not very very high. Moreover, the showing can be based on a showing that stirring up hatred was “likely” rather than “intended.”
In signature form, Yousaf reportedly then lashed out at critics like Rowling and Joe Rogan as “right-wing actors” who have “[no] sympathy for the fact we are bringing in legislation that is clamping down on hatred.” He insisted that this is merely an extension of the fight against “disinformation.”
The critics include virtually the entirety of the free speech community. Rowling’s objections to transgender policies are rooted in her feminist principles and the concern over the erasure of the gains of women generally.
By declaring opposing views as hateful, many on the left like Yousaf seek to shutdown any debate through a chilling effect on speech. Many do not want to face the cancel campaign or abuse directed against Rowling, who has the means and the following to weather this storm.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the prevalence of autism among U.S. children has risen significantly in recent years.
As Statista’s Felix Richter reports, while 6.7 in 1,000 children were diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in 2000, that number had risen to 27.6 in 1,000 children by 2020.
This means that currently 1 in 36 children in the U.S. get diagnosed with ASD, up from 1 in 150 children 20 years ago.

A Monstrous Criminal Organization , Leaked “Transgender Health” files reveal medical malpractice on children , John Leake on Dr. McCullough’s Substack
Yesterday a reporter buddy at the Epoch Times sent me his piece on leaked files from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health—better known as WPATH. The leaked documents and video reveal “widespread medical malpractice on children and vulnerable adults,” according to a 241-page report authored and published by Michael Shellenberger’s Environmental Progress organization.
This morning I read a good portion of the report with horror. Leaked documents and a video from WPATH show it to be a monstrous criminal organization whose members should all be in prison for grotesque medical malpractice...
..In video footage obtained by Environmental Progress of an internal WPATH panel titled Identity Evolution Workshop held on May 6, 2022, panel members admit to the impossibility of getting proper informed consent for hormonal interventions from their young patients.
During the panel, Dr. Daniel Metzger, a Canadian endocrinologist, discussed the challenges faced when attempting to obtain consent from adolescents seeking this medical treatment. Metzger reminded those assembled that gender doctors are “often explaining these sorts of things to people who haven’t even had biology in high school yet,” adding that even adult patients often have very little medical understanding of the effects of these interventions...
..The word adolescence literally means “to grow up.” It is a time of rapid and often confusing and destabilizing change in which the child’s self-awareness and self-image may radically change in less than one year.
How could medicine have so terribly lost its way? [A: COVID-19 vaccine-product “informed consent”, perhaps?]
https://petermcculloughmd.substack.com/p/a-monstrous-criminal-organization Leaked Files From Transgender Association ‘Shocking’ And ‘Horrific’ Admission, Critics Say [Think “Autistic kids”.]
WPATH advocates for children to have access to puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries to alter their body according to their gender identity, according to the report. This suggests that children should be able to understand the full ramifications of these drugs and procedures, and that their parents can provide informed consent.
“But while WPATH publicly supports minors and their families consenting to these hormonal and surgical treatments based on a nebulous inner sense of self, privately, some members admit that consent is not possible,” states the report. “Behind closed doors, WPATH-affiliated healthcare professionals confess that their practices are based on improvisation, that children cannot comprehend them, and that the consent process is not ethical.”
https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/leaked-files-transgender-association-shocking-and-horrific-admission-critics-say Development of Gender Non-Contentedness During Adolescence and Early Adulthood, Archives of Sexual Behavior , February 27, 2024 [So early surgery?]
..Self-concept was assessed at age 11 using the Global Self-Worth and Physical Appearance subscales of the Self-Perception Profile for Children. Sexual orientation was assessed at age 22 by self-report. In early adolescence, 11% of participants reported gender non-contentedness. The prevalence decreased with age and was 4% at the last follow-up (around age 26). Three developmental trajectories of gender non-contentedness were identified: no gender non-contentedness (78%), decreasing gender non-contentedness (19%), and increasing gender non-contentedness (2%). Individuals with an increasing gender non-contentedness more often were female and both an increasing and decreasing trajectory were associated with a lower global self-worth, more behavioral and emotional problems, and a non-heterosexual sexual orientation. Gender non-contentedness, while being relatively common during early adolescence, in general decreases with age and appears to be associated with a poorer self-concept and mental health throughout development.

April 4, 2024 at 10:34 pm #156196jb-hbParticipant1. Do you favor a federal government that has authority and power to supersede states rights?
Sure, in the areas delineated as specifically Federal
2. Do you acknowledge that the phrases “strict construction” and “orignial intent”
describe the US Constitution without the Bill of Rights?The Constitution contains provisions for additions. If they are followed per the Constitution (such as the Bill of Rights), perforce, they are following the original intent.
3. Do you anticipate western culture will prevail in the current civilizational conflict?
Maybe. Pick what you mean by Western Culture first, I suppose. It’s cool that the Gen Z’ers got really interested in Stoic philosophy and great architecture. There are interesting ideas bubbling up from everyone from The Distributist to Sargon. Younger GenZ’ers are responding to their woke teachers as if they were strict religious sticks in the mud of the past, which they basically are. Wokeists who fulfil the dreams of Boomers if they were nihilists on crack are becoming figures of derision.
On the other hand, I went to the library recently and it was even worse than before. The fiction AND non-fiction sections full of absolute junk. Does saying “I took the driver’s seat in the institution so now I say whatever goes” really WORK? Or does it derive from a mandate from the masses?
4.Do you think that the thoughts espoused by Patrick Henry are unavailable to the Global Majority?
If whoever runs the blob likes not having any power base, they should continue as they have been going. Mean Girl dirty tricks will turn out to NOT be a substitute for a real power base. But they’d have to acknowledge that people and things and time exist.
I saw a great summation in the comments section of a youtube about Disney:
“For them to win, they have to win.
For us to win, we have to survive. even in part.
That’s so cool. We’re the insurgents now”People complaining about DISNEY films know what time it is.
(Marxist, outraged: Who taught you this!??!? Geek: YOU did!!!!)
So far as Patrick Henry goes maybe maybe not. It depends on a lot of complex factors. Most of the time, resetting the game is bad. You have a whole new roll of the dice where anything can happen. A lot of it awful.
That applies to people who don’t like current trends but also to those driving those trends. For them. the next Hitler is working harmlessly at the counter of your local 7-11 until a series of events they put into motion activate him, and 7-11 guy is the one who eventually got them. Damn it I used quantum computing, AI, and the absolute BEST Middle Managers (I asked them, they reassured me) but my plans never took 7-11 guy into account. 1,000 OTHER guys working 7-11 sure, but I missed that one. Damn.
The current assholes are softies compared to whoever realizes they are superfluous and does away with them. George Orwell TRIED to explain this as if to a child so it could not be misunderstood, but oh well. Like with blue cities insisting on having themselves burnt down. When do you step in?

What is Taboo?
A taboo refers to a religious or social practice that restricts a certain behavior, activity, or relationship with people, places, or things. Taboos stem from the societal norms and customs where practices are associated with certain beliefs. However, the role of taboos is to ensure the proper functioning of societies as seen fit by particular groupings.Therefore, it is important to note that a taboo is only relevant depending on the context. This means that what is considered taboo in one society might be completely normal in another society. Furthermore, due to the passage of time and change of customs in societies, some of the things that were considered taboos years ago are acceptable in some societies. For example, divorce is now acceptable in many parts of the world yet a few years back it was a taboo in many societies. However, some taboos remain relevant over the years. For instance, Swastika, the sign used as an emblem for the Nazi party is frowned upon in some parts of the world. Another which remains to date is perjury meaning telling a lie under oath. Perjury remains taboo and is punishable by law.
April 5, 2024 at 12:28 am #156218D Benton SmithParticipantWhen a government works to ensure that its citizens always lose in order for the government to always win then the end of that government is imminent, because government power does, indeed, derive from the power of its citizens.

April 5, 2024 at 2:17 am #156219WESParticipantMore and more I am seeing the idea that Russia will collapse Ukrainian frontlines this year.
However I am not convinced that Russia will do this.
Doing so would cause too many Russian casualties.
Ukraine’s armed forces are still huge and still fighting.
I don’t see Ukrainian armed forces collapsing anytime soon.
I think Russia will continue to grind away.
I think Russia will deliberately avoid collapsing the frontlines.
If Russia creates a hole or gap in the fřrontlines, they may just sit tight, giving the Ukrainians plenty of time to re-fill the hole or gap again.
It is simply not in Russia’s long term best interests to end this war quickly.
The longer this war drags on the better.
The US/NATO and Ukraine need to know that they have been decisively and completely defeated.
Like Germany in 1945.
So there is no gorilla warfare as US/NATO desparately want to happen.(
This means killing until there is no one left to kill.
This go slow strategy would drive the US/NATO crazy because it is the last thing they want to happen.

What is the latest generally accepted (AGI) legal definition of Artificial General Intelligence(Copilot)
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is a term that has sparked much debate and confusion in the tech world. However, a recent paper by Google DeepMind researchers aims to bring clarity by providing not just one, but multiple definitions for AGI. Let’s delve into the details:
1. Broad Definition: In general terms, AGI refers to artificial intelligence that matches or surpasses human capabilities across a wide range of tasks. However, the specifics of what constitutes “human-like” abilities and the scope of tasks can vary significantly.
2. Google DeepMind’s Taxonomy: The Google DeepMind team proposes a taxonomy of AGI that includes five ascending levels:
Emerging AGI: This level encompasses cutting-edge chatbots like ChatGPT and Bard.
Competent AGI: Represents AI systems that perform tasks competently.
Expert AGI: Refers to AI that excels in specific domains.
Virtuoso AGI: Achieves mastery in various tasks.
Superhuman AGI: Outperforms humans across a wide range of tasks, including those that humans cannot perform (e.g., decoding thoughts, predicting future events, and communicating with animals).
3. Clarity and Importance: According to Shane Legg, one of DeepMind’s co-founders, and Meredith Ringel Morris, Google DeepMind’s principal scientist, the need for sharper definitions arises due to the increasing prominence of AGI. As discussions around AGI intensify, having clear terminology becomes crucial.(Me)
Based on what you just wrote one can only conclude there does at this exist a generally accepted (AGI) legal definition of Artificial General Intelligence. Do you agree?(Copilot)
I apologize for any confusion. Upon closer examination, I realize that my previous response did not directly address the existence of a legally accepted definition for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). You are correct; there is currently no universally accepted legal definition of AGI. The term remains a subject of ongoing research, debate, and evolving understanding.
While various organizations and researchers propose definitions, the legal community has not yet codified a specific AGI definition into law. The concept of AGI is multifaceted, encompassing technical, ethical, and philosophical dimensions. As such, legal definitions may lag behind scientific advancements.
Thank you for pointing out the oversight, and I appreciate your attention to detail! If you have any further questions or need clarification, feel free to ask.

Please excuse me. Due to a mistyped word on my part I am going to repost the nearly identical question, with my error correct. Based on what you just wrote one can only conclude there does not at this time exist a generally accepted (AGI) legal definition of Artificial General Intelligence. Do you agree?(Copilot)
Certainly! I appreciate your attention to detail. You are correct; as of now, there is no universally accepted legal definition for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). The term remains a subject of ongoing research, debate, and evolving understanding. While various organizations and researchers propose definitions, the legal community has not yet codified a specific AGI definition into law. The concept of AGI is multifaceted, encompassing technical, ethical, and philosophical dimensions. As such, legal definitions may lag behind scientific advancements. If you have any further questions or need clarification, feel free to ask. [chat ended here]
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –Well that went nicely. Pay dirt. The golden nugget is CoPilot’s authoritative and unambiguous statement of fact that , “there is no universally accepted legal definition for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).”
This becomes problematic (rather than merely annoying, when we start being lied to, robbed, and FORCED to trust our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor to a thing for which there is not even an agreed upon legal definition. And we DO trust our lives to those devices. They are a crucial and irreplaceable part of every civilizational system extant that touches our lives and keeps the lights on. If there were no computer driven AI systems tomorrow then there would be no coherent human civilization tomorrow and people would die like flies.
Yet that is EXACTLY what is happening. That calamitous consequence of entrusting human abilities to non-human devices (even those as crude as automated cash registers or pocket calculators, not to even mention internal combustion engines and gunpowder.)
This “AI” hyper-boondoggle is just one of MANY current crises that are ALL structurally similar in terms of how they managed to screw things up. They are also all similar in terms of who runs them, where the money goes and how indescribably evil and corrupt are the individuals at the top of the chains of command that reach down into the crisise they are trusted to be responsible for handling.
All the same crimes by all the same guys using the same modus operandi every time. What a coincidence. And almost boring in its simplicity. It’s just a criminal gang with an impressive PR and Marketing department.
We know who they are individually, by name, address, phone number and detailed curriculum vitae. Why don’t we just round ’em all up and throw them in the slammer? If we share the truth with each other we could actually do precisely that, too. All it takes is enough people to know enough truth. If we’re not to that point yet then just buckle down and do it a little better. We’re almost there.

In the Brain, Seven Is A Magic NumberNew details on how the brain stores info, and why it’s limited.
By ABC News
November 27, 2009, 7:59 AMCountless psychological experiments have shown that, on average, the longest sequence a normal person can recall on the fly contains about seven items. This limit, which psychologists dubbed the “magical number seven” when they discovered it in the 1950s, is the typical capacity of what’s called the brain’s working memory.
Now physicists have come up with a model of brain activity that seems to explain the reason behind the magical memory number.
