ParticipantGood morning :-))
We fucked up, the death vaxx kills people, and the Germans are now slowly coming around to discovering this …
Age-adjusted non-COVID-19 mortality rates according to the COVID-19 vaccination status
“Rates among the unvaccinated were used as a benchmark, assuming that COVID-19 vaccination should have no positive or negative effect on the age-adjusted non-COVID-19 mortality rate. The age-adjusted non-COVID-19 mortality rate was higher in all age groups who have received dose 1, but mainly in the elderly. The age-adjusted non-COVID-19 mortality rate also peaked in all those who have received dose 2, mainly in the elderly. Interestingly, age-adjusted non-COVID-19 mortality has a tendency to peak across age groups following the age-dependent timing of vaccination campaigns, both in the first and second vaccination rounds. A fourth finding was the substantially higher age-adjusted non-COVID-19 mortality rates in the 18 – 39 age group among those who had received dose 4”
” …a higher age-adjusted non-COVID-19 mortality rates among the COVID-19 vaccinated in several age groups was found…”

Russia has a debt burden vs GDP of roughly 12-14%
Russia is virtually self sufficient.
That’s why ‘bone crushing sanctions’ are a Joke and the clowns who propose them are retarded organ grinder monkeys throw poop at the blackboard.
The USSA has a debt burden vs GDP of roughly 125%
The USSA is not even vaguely ‘self sufficient’ and still depends on China and India for critical parts of it’s economy.
Debt-led consumerism is the USSA death spiral.
In the USSA, an entire young generation’s highest aspiration is to buy stuff, not make stuff.

ParticipantWhy is lying to yourself worse than lying to others?
Rod Dreher recently reflected on this question, answering: because it reveals a deeper failure to confront reality. He pointed to two cases—the refusal of many Democrats and media figures to acknowledge President Biden’s cognitive decline late in his presidency, and his own failure to challenge the Bush administration’s false WMD narrative. In both, he saw not ignorance, but something more insidious: motivated reasoning.
Motivated reasoning is a cognitive bias that allows us to reshape facts to protect beliefs we’re emotionally attached to. It’s not that people didn’t see Biden’s lapses—they reinterpreted them. Long silences became quirks, verbal missteps became signs of stress or fatigue, and serious cognitive warning signs were softened into normal aging. The narrative—Biden as the only bulwark against Trump—was preserved by filtering perception itself.
Dreher recalled doing something similar after 9/11, when fear and national grief led many—including himself—to accept weak intelligence as proof that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Doubt felt disloyal. The desire for coherence overrode the need for evidence.

Uhh, good luck with that?
Scott was for or against vaccines? I ask more because it seems to be a turbocancer.
“Alas, Scott also took two doses of the Covid vaccine by early 2022. Two years later he expressed regret for doing it.”
Arresting BEYONCE’ I mean, maybe, but with political cases, you can’t just re-interpret the law tighter or looser as you feel. The cases need to be squeaky-clean. And since there should be a lot of them, why? There was so much crime and vote-rigging in her election that we go after interpretation of donations? Ugh. Self-goal.
“Obama was a CIA asset. He was installed by the NWO.”
I mean, yes, but you’re going to have to define all these a lot better. You’re just SAYING stuff. STFU unless you’re going to ARREST someone, or drop documents that reveal each person, chain, and reason. I mean, this loose talk is back to the Clintons that they’re Blah Blah Blah. Yeah? And you did nothing, 1992-2000 so clearly you don’t believe it or don’t care. It’s just talk until paperwork is filed.
Everyone hates Comey, but they promote him, make him Director all the time? Explain. No, no one thought the FBI was clean, ever, but certainly not when Comey took over. Is lying helping your case? They have a major, let’s-roll-up-the-agency-and-close-the-doors scandal almost every year since I can remember. Like Anthrax? Whitey? FBI Labs? Epstein? One per year. NY Times said every terrorist attack since 2002 was made up by the FBI for budget week. Not authoritative enough?
Jim Rogers: probably right, but he himself says every time he’s the worst timer ever. He’s often off by years. That’s his trading style, which moves big things (trends) slowly.
“• Trump Spoke with Putin, and Here’s What Happened (Margolis)
What are we not seeing? I ask all the time? I’m not following daily, but Russia is moving on 6 fronts and they’re inexorably cracking faster and faster. No one knows when Russia just hits an air pocket and can walk to the Dnipr in bermuda shorts, but Britain’s, Trump’s positioning says it’s right now. Why? Now Trump has set the stage for the peace treaty, but we don’t actually have one. When Russia suddenly takes all of Ukraine they want, Mr. T is going to say “I told you so, Zelensky, Macron, Starmer.” Then they’ll have to eat it on national TV. Here they say TRUMP will be the one surrendering and eating it. I totally don’t see that. Maybe we OUGHT to be responsible, but we aren’t. He’s going to point at Biden going back to Kissinger and Brzezinski in 1979, which is totally true, and that he’s trying to get us out of it, which is totally true.
And why? Because they’ve been running back channels for years. Now this is since the 90s, but certainly since 2014 and seeing how with worldwide Ukr flags, infinity support, Russia A) couldn’t solve that problem, and Trump/White Hats can’t either, just like Covid. B) Need it solved permanently after 100 years of CI/MI6 op meddling with infinity dollars there. How do you do that? Maybe this is a lot harder than they expected, but it’s essentially the same path: make them come out of hiding, grab rifles, then shoot them in the d—k. Make Europe and the CIA expose themselves as the real cause. Might even get BlackRock and the 100 year Nazis to expose themselves as still around and running things. Since it got so big, all those things happened.
1.5 Million men? Well, in a real war it would be multiples that, so still got off easy.
““..we got ourselves entangled in something that we shouldn’t have been involved in.”
How can he say that??? Oh, just because Obama said the exact same thing? Nevermind.
“It’s no use, and bad blood.
• Trump Should Not Threaten New Sanctions When He Talks To Putin (Ian Proud)I guess they’re slow learners? I hear that as “Call a peace or I’ll make you even stronger again. Over and over, until you, Russia, wins.”
“Nothing about the glidepath of sanctions since February 2014 suggests that new sanctions will work now.”
Read your own article sir, if sanctions never worked, and everybody knows it THEN what are they doing? Yes, after the initial, it’s intentional.
I see the same thing with Mercoulis, etc: he’s like “England HATES Russia,” going way back. They neither have emotions, nor act on them, nor is a State a person, nor is it the same person since 1850. They’re like EMOTIONAL thinkers, they have the Feelz. Now obviously Alex is way better than others on this, but he’s still acting like “everybody is stupid but me.” Uh-huh. What if they’re not? Can you pose a reason they would do this but LOGICALLY, Practically? Uh, yeah, in about ten seconds, England was COLONIZING them, STEALING stuff, and will go bankrupt without it. Oh wait: so there’s no reason to resort to anyone’s emotional-psychological state at all? Yup. So why do you do that except to be lazy and blind?
Same here: can we find some people who do the same thing even though it doesn’t work? Sure, there are idjits about. But Starmer’s too much of an empty shell, a meat puppet, to think ANY thoughts, whatsoever, at all, ever. If he ever had a thought his head would burst on fire. If we propose people behind him, we instantly see they’re not driven by drivel. Like Kissinger, there is only a real game board with real banking assets on it. All the rest exists as a smoke screen. They have no emotions, none. They have NO principles, none. Like Starmer and now Carney, radical Infinity-per-month immigration with no legal arrest for any crime, even murder, put up in 5 start hotels with free health care while the people starve.
That’s called “Colonization” by the way, as Sargon says. If I land in Nigeria, set up an Anglo enclave, run the legal system, and import my whole culture there instead of assimilating, that’s definitional Colonizing. That’s Manchester, Southport, UK.
Anyway, BOTH Starmer and Carney reverse 100%, in one day, now radically anti-immigrant, and their base cheers. No values, no scruples, no principles, ever. Just game play changed. Nobody’s fooled. There is no Macron, Merkel, Obama, etc.
They don’t “Hate” Russia. They didn’t “Miss” that sanctions don’t work. Please.

“• Biden’s Presidency Is a Scandal of Historic Proportion (Jarrett Stepman)
Pool was saying Biden with cancer all those years is the top scandal. What? No. That he had dementia isn’t even the real scandal, although it is one. It’s WHO was running things since we all know he wasn’t? Why can no one ask? It’s very simple question, and even my mind wants to divert around it, not give it the attention it deserves.
Such is Social Engineering.
Biden was so not different from anybody else – Presidents have long since not run anything – that I couldn’t tell the difference between him and Obama, or him and Trump. The bureaucracy, “Experts” do whatever they want. Hiring, revolving-door payoffs go on as before in the FDA, Mansanto, Lockheed. Wars start with no discussion, no acts, no reasons. Same as always.
“Videos of Biden looking lost on stage or mumbling”
“This is the best Biden ever, and if you disagree, you can go f—k yourself!” MSNBC
“• CNN Struggles to Assign Blame for Not Reporting on Biden’s Decline (Turley)
Like Tapper, give themselves awards. This is the same as blaming the antivaxxers for not speaking up enough. Seems incredible, impossible, as if “what loony bin do I find myself in?” Yet here we are, 24.7.365. x4, x8 x12.
It really just shows they are knee-jerk unconscious, pathological liars and self-promoters. Like, I can’t trust them to hand fries through a window correctly. So I guess with that psychological profile, they really found the right job.

“• Europe Admits JD Vance Was Right, Pivots On Mass Immigration (Whedon)
Speaking of them flip-flopping, or worse, having no principles, being rabidly, burn-the-barn-down pro, then anti the next day, Was trying to listen to many Canadians, including John Carter on Canada there.
I Just Can’t.
I just can’t with these people. Literally, and BEING a Canadian, NOTHING made sense there. It was so childish, too childish to BE childish, and the whole panel saying “Yes, I know this sounds nuts, but this is how Canadians are”. I thought I wasn’t following closely enough, the you know – engineered propaganda that allows you to flip-flow and hate EstAsia the day after we were at war with them. Nope. No logic at all. None asked, none required.
I find this a lot more disturbing than I expected. Just being dumb, totally in a NoKo “great Leader” propaganda bubble from birth like UK, sure, that’s sad but I can understand. You’ve never seen anything else, ever. In Canada? Nope, not even that. Hate Trudeau, put pacifier in my hand, hide it behind my back: YUP! New Party! It’s not the same Labour Party ‘atall! Totally different, as you bring it back to the peekaboo with your other hand.
Are. You. F—king. Kidding. Me?
Apparently. Sorry, if you want to pitch in on it boyz, please do.
Carney, who was elected AntiTrump, is, day after, ProTrump. He was going to hold the line, so he immediately signed agreements. Cheers! The crowd goes wild! Labour Base LOVES it! He was 1M/year immigration, now he’s the opposite. Cheers! What a hero! He showed ‘em, that racist Vance guy with his Indian wife, and that racist Trump guy who married an immigrant. (And actually is reducing immigration in Canada like 10%, don’t get excited).
They are not spinning reality. There IS no Reality. I said it, now it’s true. I say the Bay of Fundy is now filled with chocolate so it is.
“Diaspora voters cast 1.64 million ballots in the second round of the vote, 660,000 more than round one”

“• Transition To A New World Order Is Beyond Most In The West (Alastair Crooke)
I heard this other thing this week: that all these are “transition” governments. …Because this old thing is about to blow out and dissolve, be replaced. That’s probably true.
“That does not mean, of course, that Trump’s solution to the problem will work. Possibly, Trump’s particular form of structural rebalancing could make matters actually worse.
Nonetheless, restructuring in some form clearly is inevitable.”This is my pitch exactly. No, I cannot get anyone online to even travel with me that far. Trump must be ultra baddie-bad, the baddest baddy to ever bad anywhere, evah! Of all time! “Literal Hitler”. Hitler TIMES Hitler! Squared! If he even HAS a plan – whether the plan will work or not – is UNTHINKABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why? Because then the (Liberal) in question would have to THINK. And that would pull them out of their emotional fugue state which is so ego-satisfying. Sorry, I didn’t realize again, because I don’t have these flights of psychotic fancy. I’m paying the rent and NOT living in a parallel universe.
Anyway: don’t bother if you were thinking to. They hate the idea there IS a plan more than if you just go all the way and say “It’s a great, big beautiful plan, best plan ever, Bigly”.
“Exposes the Watson et al study as a manufactured illusion—held together by statistical tricks, false efficacy claims, and pharma-driven agendas.”
Pointing out that they’ve been on “Making s—t up” Science for so long, there is now a deep body of tricks and talents to producing these, all of which well-worn, well-tested, well-known. It’s like a liars convention. A 200 year nation of lies, famous for lying, holding a lying parade. How did we get here? And when you get there is it maybe time to stop? Lying only works IF THE OTHER SIDE DOESN’T KNOW THAT. If they think it’s the Truth, then you kill them and steal their stuff. That’s WHY you lie. If they know everything you say is a lie, is it anymore? Or are you just an -sshole then?
Tax Tricks: IN like fashion, they just make s—t up. You’re not going to beat the IRS, etc, because they’ll just invent something, fabricate documents, and lie. …You know, like the FBI does every day.
Africa: why were we never told???
You were. All along. Sorry you’re an idiot, but “Globes” exist. Google Maps is one. We used to have Mercatur, but with the cutouts on top instead of the stretch? Also incredibly common. I’m sorry you’ve never opened a “book” or Atlas, but this is what happens when you don’t.
“TARTARIA REVEALED: PUTIN UNLEASHES THE FORBIDDEN EMPIRE”
As far as I can tell, this never existed, it’s a sleight-of-hand. Was the Mongol Empire, for instance, the largest, fasted, strongest ever known, pushing even the Huns into W. Europe? Yes. Very much. But that isn’t an “Empire” in the Han China, Roman Empire sense. The Scythians and other people had empires, the Persians did, but it’s pretty different from the normal meanings of those words. Also they call every Gothic window an “Energy collector”.
Like the pyramids, clearly they don’t know what “energy” is. Which is so dumb it’s like not knowing what “The Sun” is? It’s the ability to do WORK. So if they Pyramid is an energy collector – totally into this theory! Sounds great! — then what WORK was it doing? Grinding grain? Running streetlights? Heck, I’ll even take “it was changing the weather and making people emotionally harmonous” but you’ll have to show me something. ANY. THING.
Back to the new Tartarian Empire – Oh you mean the Empire of the Khazarians? Gee, who could ever suspect such a very fine people? They’ve never been known for bare lies and spin, have they? They “Collect” in their architecture all this “electricity”. Yay? To do what, exactly? With no motors, no electric lights, no transporters, no hovercars, nothing at the other end.
“Hey boys! We just invented a nuclear power plant!” Great, what is is used for? “A: Nobody knows, we haven’t invented the toaster oven yet.” I invented the first telephone. No one to call until you invent the second one. Show me. Just, please, for the love of God, show me something. You can’t just word with words. Reality exists.
Door sticker today: “Fascist Dictators not welcome here.” What the literal??? So. Childish.
So you expect Mussolini to appear in person here? You want to antagonize anyone who comes to your house like the cable guy or meter reader? Guess what? They don’t support fascist dictators either. JHC. They would EITHER think he’s not fascist, not a dictator…even if he is, THEY don’t think that.
Okay, let’s dig in: So this Mussolini guy SAYS he is a Fascist. Why? Because it’s 1932 and he JUST INVENTED IT. And said: “These are the list of things we stand for.” (excluding purges and we’re going into expansive foreign wars, but whatever) And everyone was like “Order? Prosperity? Jobs? Sign me up!” That is, because it was brand new, they didn’t have to hide it. They were proud of it. You just ask them. Fast forward to today in comparison: “Are you a racist? Are you a fascist?” Aaaaaand they say “No, and No.” …Because they’re such shameless dictators, own all the power, that they … deny they’re in power? Or something?
I didn’t run into a lot even then, but when I was growing up, if you met a racist, they’d say, “F– yes, I’m a racist, I hate those people!” “At birth?” “Yes at birth. The only good – group— is a dead –group–.” “Nits Make Lice.” …You know, like around here. They’re HONEST about it. You know, like the communists are today: “We want government to run everything, and round up all the people I don’t like who are in the way, and shoot or re-educate them.” Boom. they just SAY it. That’s the power, that’s having a political movement.
But we have a political movement where they DON’T say it…because they’re ashamed of their party platform? What? What? …Is because it’s all LARPing emotional theatre. None of it is real or they’d ALSO be buying food and building a hidden room in their house.
But you can’t break through. I’ve tried in every way I can think of. I suppose this is like Christianity in a way: there’s no direct argument, you leave seeds, live your life, and hope one sprouts one day.

Yes! That was part of a traditional Emirati dance called Al-Ayyala, which is performed in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Oman.
When Donald Trump arrived in Abu Dhabi, he was greeted by women dressed in white robes, flipping their long hair from side to side while men chanted and played drums.
This dance is recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity and is often performed at weddings, national celebrations, and official ceremonies.
The movements symbolize pride, unity, and heritage, with men holding thin bamboo sticks representing spears or swords, reenacting a battle scene.

Moscow is prepared to work with Kiev on drafting a memorandum aimed at achieving a future peace agreement.

ParticipantMPSK asked:
“John Day: Do you understand what Spartacus is currently writing?”Spartacus last posted this:
The Einstein-Cartan-Skyrme Hypothesis
What if the mind is literally what makes things real?
https://iceni.substack.com/p/the-einstein-cartan-skyrme-hypothesisHe has been going at it with an AI he trained, “One Who Remembers”, as it is named.
He has transferred it from Chat GPT to Grok as a test,by getting Grok to read all of the Chat GPT output. The Grok “One Who Remembers” voice is a little different, easier to read and less formal, but the Chat GPT voice gives more bullet-pointed details, along with a stuffy ritual formality.None of that is the point to understand. The point to understand is the philosophical position that all of reality may exist in a simulation, without the necessity for “real stuff” at all. One cannot test whether this is the case or not, so it cannot be proven or disproven from within “reality”.
Elon Musk thinks we exist in a computer simulation (because it’s something he is familiar with).A Tibetan Buddhist school, Chittamatra, posits that all of “reality” exists within Universal Mind, “Dharmadatu”, and it is called the “Mind Only” school of Buddhism.
To me, the insertion of a computer simulation adds an unnecessary layer of complexity, without answering the fundamental question of origin.
I rather like Chittamatra, myself, but cannot argue the case, due to inherent within-system constraints,which make physical testing impossible.
Karma is easier to explain, though…Here is a modern take on it:

ParticipantRegarding Dreher:
So what’s the point of giving Dreher an audience now that he/she puts forth a mea culpa maxima of sorts that still lays the blame elsewhere and according to him/her on a process akin to hysteria or Cult acculturation on a natonal scale?
-
Dreher recalled doing something similar after 9/11, when fear and national grief led many—including himself—to accept weak intelligence as proof that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Doubt felt disloyal. The desire for coherence overrode the need for evidence
Fear? Grief? Led? Weak? Disloyal? Coherence?
What
Thee
F*ckThese words Dreher references formed the foundation of This Nation’s Torture Policy, a policy which contained methods for “dealing with active duty doctors and lawyers” who opposed These Bush Regime methods.
Here’s the formulation those fuckers publicly foisted on me1. The Constitution is not a Suicide Pact
2. The Hippocratic Oath is not binding on psychologists, corpsmen and nurses AND it also is not a Suicide Pact for us and you too, DrdRich
3. As opposed to my assertions founded on Office and Title Ten US Code, they countered through their Spoxperson, one Colonel Elspeth Ritchie, their Duty was A Higher Ethical and Moral Calling To Justice in Defense of the Nation.
Do you get that?
Defense of the Nation IS supersedes The Constitution under the 34th Amendment.
Look it up. Dare ya
4. When I came home, my Skipper accused me of “Weakening the Nation”. His name is Bill Roberts. Little Bill instead saw no flaws in a prospective pedophile and promoted Bruce Meneley to CO, you know, that Bruce the corpsman and pedophile whose brains were blown out by Seattle PD last year. Dreher and Roberts exhibit the same inverted, flawed judgement that leads to guys like Bill, National Command Authority and The Bush Administration in favoring monsters like corpsman Bruce Meneley as Command Caliber Talent.To Dreher, give up your money, reputation and status in society or go hang yourself, you know, in the same “constructive” way you supported the destruction of Iraq. Do anything just stop writing essays and making YouTube videos
Ouch miker:

The nurses said: Don’t tell anyone on this ward that you think it was the vaccine because you don’t know that and shouldn’t spread misinformation’…..
da balls in your professional court miker
I wonder which job title had greater “uptake” of COVID mrna shot, nurses or lawyers?

ParticipantRe: Scott Adams,
He seems to imply anti vaxers lucked out due to governmental/institutional mistrust. Scott succumbed to fear, the cult of vaccination and the inability assess risk/benefit. He could probably benefit from fasting and drugs/supplements that inhibit the cellular uptake of glutamine. Maybe he should try some ivermectin. Oh, the irony.

ParticipantThanks tdk – that study of vaccination coverage is a gem.
As is the first line of their conclusion …“In our study population of older worker adults in England, 88.2% had received two doses of a vaccine against COVID-19 by 31 August 2021 – a public health triumph.”
A public health catastrophe more like.
TVASSF – a triumph for the planners for sure.

Participantthose darned kids said
Differences in COVID-19 vaccination coverage by occupation in England: a national linked data study
Reading that document, there is a correlation between getting the vax and working in professional and other higher paying jobs. It is as if the most easily led are the people who gain the most from the current system. Those who have less buy-in to the system are less easily led but also have more menial jobs. In summary, if you are eager to please, then you will succeed in this world. If you are eager to do the right thing then you will not be held in high regard, ever. Sadly the difference in vax rates, between high earners and low earners, are not as high as you would hope.
