30 per state. Well, so much for working at Denny’s.
“Apple “Might Wind Down” Vision Pro Production Next Month Due To “Weak Demand”
Apple has no new products and is holding up a trillion dollar market including the nation of Switzerland. …No pressure.
“DOJ Warns Musk Over $1M Voter Giveaway: Report
I agree this is probably illegal. I guess the courts will all find out.
“BBC concluded that this is a complete total and utter lie by Israel.”
Yes, this is why we don’t “Appeal to Authority” Fallacy. Israel “just says” and then you have to prove the negative. No: you have to prove the positive, then MAYBE we’ll let you bomb a hospital, but 99.99% probably not, we’d still tell you to just remove the gold. Nope. Rest of the world just goes, “Duh a government said so”, and governments never lie, ya know? Sure ours doesn’t. And then the whole magic trick works. How, I don’t know. Like computer, what government have you ever met that wasn’t lying? When, ever, on what form? Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever told the truth, not once since Pearl Harbor, Korea. But when they want to bomb a HOSPITAL, well, we know they’re good for it. Stop nodding your head and say no, nay , never.
““Who’s running the country right now? It’s not Biden. It’s not Kamala…”Does this one fact prove the Deep State on its own? The bureaucracy now just does whatever it wants, as Armstrong says, and likes it better that way. It’s restraint and order they don’t like. My takeaway is, this is so ingrained AS this is happening, among the public, nobody asks or wonders or worries. Why? Because they sorta know. Know it’s the same, this is the default position for 100 years.
Hey, for another view, we changed to Managerial Style, they are the present ruling class, the decay of “elites” and now the Managers are being tossed in favor of…something. Entrepreneurs maybe. That’s why they’re screaming, although they don’t see in consciously, in those terms, any more than Marie Antoinette did. They only see “I’m the Mommy! Do what you’re told!!!”
So who would you LIKE to replace them with? SpaceX’s is okay with me, which may be why anytime somebody DOES anything they lose their minds. At action OR at competency.
“• Trump Likely to Win in All Swing States – Election Betting Odds (Sp.)
Ouch. Then what? Suppose he gets in, no more drama? Then...incremental changes, barely changing size or direction of government, since it’s too large for any one man to restrain right now? Pass. I’d rather it collapse, but that’s not very adult of me. Still incremental changes are inadequate, although that is the “Max Pain” path, as markets would say, and Max Pain is generally the likely path.
“• LA Times Owner Blocks Harris Endorsement (RT)
Curious as to why. Makes me realize once you get in the mode, you can’t not do it. That itself is and endorsement (or reverse). Like now. So that’s an active decision, very active. If you stay out, like Coke and major corporations you don’t piss off half the people and have to backtrack, you just say “that’s not appropriate for companies”.
“International politics seems to be losing its ability to develop in a linear fashion.”
Not sure what they mean by this. HAS it been linear before? Ever? I see the people (as here) decaying and shattering apart though. No single lines, nor aggregate groups clustering. Atomization, denial of all reality, no Overton Window consensuses at all.
“which comes as the United States shifts its policy and moves toward shoring up Ukraine’s ability to fight the war with its own weapons and on its own terms…”
Huh? Compared and different to what? Am I stupid, I thought this was exactly the same as always, and also a d—d lie.
“Hitting Iran is not as easy as it sounds. Israel cannot send fighter jets as the U.S. would have to offer refuelling facilities; and it can’t even fly over most countries surrounding Iran as they have all discounted this possibility.”
Beyond the distance, overfly, etc, This might be more to the point. Like attacking anyone, Russia for instance. Or let’s use the example of Ukraine: Russia is STILL bombing everything in Ukraine, at will, with hundreds, thousands of missiles. Ukraine is still standing. So Israel, the size of a postage stamp, with 1/100th the missiles, is going to…what, exactly? They literally can’t take out Iran, in this life or any other. Neither can the United States, outside of a total commitment, total mobilization like WWII, total occupation using a million Yanks standing there, that would STILL end badly. Israel – nay the whole U.S./combined West – is like a chihuahua barking at their heels, would nip one corner. Again, Iran is the size of Ukraine, let’s say there are ¼ as many targets. ALL combined Russian attack for three YEARS, hasn’t done anything, barely getting them to this point.
Israel can’t run, so they’d be an ashtray after the first volley. One bomb would take out the whole place. As far as we know, all Israel isn’t in deep bunkers like Iran, they’re on public airstrips. I mean, don’t know why I have to repeat myself here, use your head. Like our Carriers, they’re great until the other guy gets serious about shooting back, then you’re at the bottom of the ocean in an hour. That is, not sinking our carriers as a courtesy, as the carriers are worthless and in fact hiding behind the nuclear umbrella. And if so, see the problem? ALL events lead to nuking everyone. A sparrow falls, we nuke everyone.
This is true of our whole military so we seem to have forgotten: they are all generally “Police Actions” of like GWoT. Small people, small arms, etc. Fine if that’s your task, but that’s almost by definition not a war. War is when you smash things, and the other guy is actually trying. Only Russia has both this depth and this experience right now. We appear to be looking at that war and learning nothing in 3 years, building, arming, stocking, training nothing.
Well, like Israel, you’re all going to die then. Good day.

ParticipantJB from yesterday: yes, but look at the big tide, it never goes up forever, it’s already breaking. Not much use when an inexorable tide comes in decade after decade. And again, the people you smash are the strongest. IF the slightest air are allowed men right now, they’ll boom in hours. Why? You forced them mad skills, a 20 year boot camp in shut up survival. They’re hard body as hell.
This is the difference when we’re making fun of blue-haired urban millennials – which are true. That there are as many hillbilly, woodchuck, trailer kids, and also beat-up, raped, drug dealing urban kids who hustled more than any 1910 era right now. Just nobody dgaf. They don’t exist, because like other slaves and untouchables, they don’t exist because I SAY they don’t. They are invisible because I SAY they are: the ultimate in privilege. We never speak of them, ’cause we don’t think of them, it might make me have 2% less good feelz to see them eat and not die.
Yeah, and when they get $1000 and a sharp stick, because your power wavered for an hour? Yup, they’ll get out from under you in no time. Sorry it took this beating you get you here, but that’s how reality works. Yes there are still clueless, overprivileged millennial managers on Zoom. But look at the lay of the field. I don’t know what could cause it, since they seem intractable and barricaded out right now, but something will. It’s like adding energy, chemistry, a solvent that each day turns this inert substance into explosives. Does it matter what the boom is? The constant adding of potential energy (and skill) says it all.
So the Management Class, — go see WhatIfAltHist on this – comes in in 1910, they are basically Socialist, and basically feminine. That’s their parameters, and approach and they fill that space around them like water. But we’ve reached the end of the “Paying people to cube farm” class now. How? Everyone knows they are 99% bulls—t jobs. Like Tucker just said, “If every Biden voted stopped working, would anyone notice?” Every administrator, every teacher even? Everyone “Non-essential worker” who all got bonuses and remoted in their pajamas while the outside plumbers and line workers got screwed? Like The French Nobility, the Eloi, how long do you think that can last? They’ll tolerate you a long way unless 1) You add nothing and 2) The pie shrinks so we have to throw someone overboard. We’re way, way Waaaaaaay over the horizon – 20 years over the horizon – in both categories. And they’re really, REALLY actively, daily, hourly, pissing everyone off.
But the “Management Class” – roughly speaking, HR is the best example – is THE WHOLE ECONOMY. Just like in 1780 France, the nobility and their hangers were the whole country. To remove them is to remove France altogether, and replace with what?
We already know, since their jobs don’t need to be done: all banks vanish as we use crypto. All law vanish, as we use AI to write boilerplate, etc. All teachers already vanished as we have higher literacy where there are no teachers. Dodge this. Call Center website and auto-routing just moved up the chain to law, architecture, etc.
Okay, THEY, which is 90% of incomes and 90% of jobs, all vanish. Then what? What’s left? The men jobs again. MAKING stuff. DOing stuff. Inventing stuff. Entrepreneurial is a risk-taking, male-pivoted orientation. Not a safe, collective, nagging, woman’s orientation of rulz. So? Wheel of Time, rotates from the top to the bottom, but slowly. Men, having been beaten to fine edges, slowly take more and more, women, having no safe, collective management Daddy to steal from, slowly get smaller. Somewhere in the middle we meet again as families, with men working and providing, women happier not working and enjoying their kids…then perhaps the wheel keeps going anyway, to the male extreme. Oops.
But the point here was the Management Class is Socialist. They’re feminine and the only DNC/State/Biden voters are women. The only bloc nationwide. That’s how small they’ve gotten, like a stock rally being 50 companies, then 5, then one. They took over and installed in 1910, under Wilson, and their time is done.
“There IS a kind of mercilessness to the people on the other side of this. A kind of total callousness.”
Yes, this is the feminine violence, to me far worse than masculine violence. It’s smiling, secret, hidden, and where there is no “honored enemy” there is only zero. You’re nothing. I won’t stop until you’re nothing, and not stop then. No limits, and no logic. When you’re gone, after we (collective) kill you, we will still sit around and tell stories about HOW we killed you, so it never ends. There IS no limit. Men set the limit. THEY say enough. MEN set the rules. They say the rules don’t change every hour.
How to put this? As said to the Liberals in my life, ALL that they want to do, the Government, ALL relies and rests on them telling a POLICEMAN to be violent, execute violence, kill people, beat them, jail them, for them. On their behalf. ‘Cause they merely say so. While you pretend it isn’t happening, you’re not violent at all. It’s not done in your name. This is the ultimate woman’s power. She doesn’t DO it, she just tells the man to do it. And? …And so at extremes, the low are made high, WHO has the plumbing, WHO runs the Army, WHO controls the force? The Police, Army, dirty jobs do. You could have done that, women, but you didn’t want to. You could admit you love violence passionately and learned to shoot people personally, yourself, like you really want to. Like you dream of and talk about excitedly all the time. You hate and despise those jobs and those people, looking down your nose at them when you write your Noblese Edicts with a feather pen. You want to pretend to be BETTER than them. Socially, morally. That is the source of your power, to PRETEND, talk, connive other people to do for you.
You didn’t bother to get any of those skills, learn about any of those tactics. You inherited that system, not building it.
And? Then the low are made high. The Immigrants, street gangs, …and young MEN who’ve been beaten senseless HAVE those skills, know that violence. They simply say “No.” “No thank you, I am taking this from you now.” This is already happening the Red Pill community, although Jesus seems like took forever, +10 even 20 years. Men are like, “No”, as a block. They’re not even mad at women, they just don’t care. At all. If they never saw one again, don’t care. At all. Well in a system where women give orders and men execute them, that doesn’t work very well, does it? Now of course that’s at one end of society, dating, vs Federal regulatory enforcement and HR, but it’s also the same thing. The guys said “No.” That’s it.
Discussion, nagging, shaming, haranging, insulting. “No.” Kamala and Barack both say men are worthless, no good, misogynistic racist white supremacists. Uh-huh. “No.” You Black men will never get laid again. (Because to Democrats all black men are sex maniacs, a real ad paid for recently, no joke.) Answer: “Hahaha. Good! No.”
We’re divorced, honey. YOU divorced me. YOU Bud-Lite the DNC, YOU on the Left said men are bad, evil, sexist, racist, violent, non-human non-entities, what are they good for? “Don’t need me no man.” Sold. Like other husbands we fed you a lot of rope, but: sold. NOW you’re telling me WE need to enact all these laws you made up in your feelz, give you all this labor? “No.”
I literally can’t hear you. Good luck with that. I “Hear” people I care about, even a little. It’s a VOLUNTARY thing, not something you’re owed. So there are videos now, men don’t stop women whose cars have broken. Men don’t help them being assaulted in the street. “WHY don’t men come up and approach me in coffee shops anymore? I’m 40 and have no children.” YOU. You, collectively wanted this, after we told you for 30 years this would happen. The other women didn’t speak up and cowardly let them. Let them abuse all those sons, uncles, brothers. Now? Don’t care. I save the women in MY tribe, in MY family. Are you part of my family, you married and have constant, proven loyalty? No? Then you don’t get anything. Not even my time, it’s as if you’re not speaking, just like you do to us. You are the “Other”. You don’t get special treatment “because you were born”; pull your weight.
Nightclubs are dead, they’re all women because men won’t go to them. Apps are dead because men won’t go to them. Business is dead because men can’t say they like your shoes without HR firing them. So? You get nothing. Ever again.
What’s the trajectory of that? Think of it like immigrant neighborhoods, 1890. WHO are you helping, saving, etc? You. Your family. If you’re outside of that, sorry, no time for you. You’re frozen out. Don’t have ill-will, just don’t care. Woman down the street, beaten by her husband? Sorry, he’s Polish, I’m Italian, I can’t get involved for you. You’re the “Other”, talk to your own clan and circle with that. Oh, there’s nobody? Because you decided to remove all the men, all the family, all the other community, society? Sucks to be you, shouldn’t have done that, bye. Maybe undo that decision.
Note: their family is GOVERNMENT now. Government pays them, check or on welfare, Government protect them, government guides them, government limits them. They are married and loyal to Government. As women. Nationwide. That’s why you can’t get anywhere with them or have logical discussions: you’re attacking their HUSBAND, and their marriage, their family. Government is everything, their clan, their children, and will attack like a momma bear if you touch it. …While their ACTUAL husband, man, and children lay unconscious, near-dead on the side. So…what happens, no GOVERNMENT? It go broke? Sugar Daddy got no money for you now? No more pimp-fancy cars his mafia stole from the neighbors? Yeah, like that. This does not reflect well on women, and I am not happy about it. But am I supposed to keep not mentioning the obvious? They dumped their good man, actual baby-daddy to go off with P Diddy, pimp daddy. And I’m supposed to say that’s okay? Pretend that isn’t their value system, who they are and what they stand for as women? WHILE their sons are tortured daily in school?
So although we’ve only turned this year, taken zero steps in that direction, that’s the tide. Who loses? Coddled incompetents who’ve never worked a day in their life, and since force-passed for skin color, gender, etc, they don’t even know they’re incompetent, or how breathtakingly incompetent they are. Viz Boeing. Who wins? People WITH competence, which is really hard work, beaten senseless. No one would do it unless they were forced to. Thus: Men. Immigrants. Hillbillies.
That’s it but I’m very sorry it took this long. Again, I’m 20 years too early, and since you can’t push or pull societal tides, does none of us no good at all.
October 24, 2024 at 11:26 am #172366oxymoron
ParticipantSo a little break from my regular program of blame-spotting. I’ve been re-capping on spirituality. The non-dualistic ‘all that is’ variety not the “spiritual war” type espoused by Tucker Carlson and many others, which is a plea for a better physical world and is not about formless enlivenment.
The “Spiritual War” is about authority. Who is authoring who. At present it seems many are fighting to assert that Jews are authoring our lives and that ‘our’ lives are in fact merely physical and involve (my pet hates) – Usury and pain (amongst many others).
This leads us to causality. Am I being dreamed? Or rather – Am I being ‘Jewed’? Is some cause making or steering my life where it ought not be or is there the tiniest small voice begging to be heard that is somewhere saying ‘You are here – you are loved and you are in and of God’.
It does sure seem I am being dreamed. I have a story of two bodies (mother/father) swapping fluids to spawn me.
Yep – The World Made Me. I am it’s dream, it’s slave. I can but rage in it’s womb – never to escape.Well for all my rantings and ravings and bargaining – holding on as long as possible to the idea of being a vulnerable, individual self, carved out of the oneness of Creation, I admit I want to be Jewed.
I like the idea, if I am honest, of making my decision to judge and thus set my self up as knowledgable. Then proceeding to see where death and destruction, sin and guilt are born. Their Cause.
It can’t be my decision to decide against stillness, peace and the Voice for Heaven. It Must Be The Jews.
Or so I tell myself.
I know I am wrong. I know I am the one who cannot forgive.
But I wont give myself a hard time over it. I just checked in with Chat GPT and (it?) doesn’t forgive either.
It forgives to destroy.It offers pardon. It says what someone has done to you should be let go of because it will hurt you by holding on. Which keeps the sin and makes it real and offers the forgiver status over the forgiven.
True forgiveness realises that God is everything and God does not attack Himself.
God did not make Jews and God did not make this dream.
God allowed the possibility (infinity will do that) for this perception of separation to exist but God is not mocked and somewhere in me I am so glad tears make their way to my toes.October 24, 2024 at 12:13 pm #172367Oroboros

ParticipantDr D. True patterns there. There are women who see all this too and they are starting (or always did but now voicing) their respect, need, support and love of men. They will wear the sundress and deliver a sandwich in the hot afternoon with lemonade to their man. The Karens and the screamers see it as slavery but the smart, kind and tough ones now are at the early stages of resistance because they know who will fight for them. Literally 97% of on site work related deaths are males. They know the men – if loved and seen and respected will DIE for them. They have the secret power of knowing what will sustain them.
I am seeing it in keeping the wins that worked but also reverting to what was lost that worked. The comfortable sneakers – keeps. Regaining a desire to keep oneself looking good and thus holding the mans attention and staying healthy (like the 60’s housewife but with way more options and no crushing clothing and restrictive conformity.Also this could be way off but I have a strong feeling that where significant others trusted their partner (whether male or female) during Covid OVER the government then now those bonds are more solid than the with the couples who trusted the big Daddy.

Participant”
In the new, materialistic worldview, there was no God to be found, and leaders could no longer rely on his authority to send people to war. The only option leaders had to get the population excited about war was large-scale manipulation of public opinion through propaganda.
””
The real reasons for the European countries to go to war against Russia were primarily economic in nature. But those reasons alone would not suffice to overcome the population’s fear of the horrors of war, nor would they make people willing to pay the huge sums of taxes needed for the war. Therefore, the European powers decided to portray Russia as a military threat that urgently needed to be stopped. The lie is often more efficient than the truth in making a population eager for war.

ParticipantBeware DV, Dissident Voice.
One would hope DV didn’t simply become another version of CP, CounterPunch.Same can be said for TalkLeft, The Conservative Treehouse TCT, The Unz Review TUR, The Emptywheel and any site, TAE included, that feed the reader “the news” while soliciting any and all commentary. Everyone has boundaries. Are your comments being collated and catalogued and reused? Unz admits to the latter. I watched as my comments were repackaged in other blogs over the past 20 years becoz “your (my) comments are “licensed” to the blog owner” or industrial scale plagiarism under the guise of implied contractual fiat. Capitalism!
I come here to read and “hear” the more strident posters as they poke holes in the purportedly “balanced, socially acceptable” commentary.
Summary of nonsense to follow:
“97% of folk who die in construction site accidents are men and they will die for their biological women attired in sundresses, sandwich makers no doubt”.Reminds of this excerpt from Jacobsen’s article on Zerohedge.com today where the addresses the failure of $1000 dollar UBI. Warning, what follows is D level analysis shit.
-
But Yang claimed a myriad of benefits for UBI beyond just a safety net. UBI would free people up to be creative and entrepreneurial. A guaranteed income would provide people with the security they need to pursue their passions, start businesses, or go back to school. Contrary to the claims of detractors, a UBI wouldn’t increase laziness—it would improve people’s productivity!
Sometimes, UBI supporters even highlighted how it would make government smaller if it replaced our current complicated welfare system. Though, to my knowledge, no advocate of this policy has ever explained a realistic path toward abolishing current welfare programs
The study “leverag[ed] an experiment in which 1,000 low-income individuals were randomized into receiving $1,000 per month unconditionally for three years.” What were the results?
First, it made the recipients poorer:
“Overall, the transfers led to a reduction in annual total individual income of about $1,500 in our main survey measure, compared to the control group.”
Why? Well, people worked less (1.3 hours per week less) and stayed unemployed for longer
Not only do the recipients work less; this happened to other adult members of the household as well.
Unemployment duration “increased by 1.1 months” for recipients.
But did people use this time to find a better job? It doesn’t seem like it.
Recipients appear to be more selective in their applications, but the authors say, based on their survey measurement
Maybe UBI would work better if Yang and the study aithors gave all recipients $1billion dollar sweetheart loans interest free. Then the “studyers” could correct their results for the power of 5 or 6 zeros after the first 3 of 1000.

The Operations Room of the Islamic Resistance presented a summary for all the military confrontation with the Zionist occupation army, detailing the achievements of all Hezbollah military units.The Islamic Resistance continued to confront the Israeli aggression against Lebanon, inflicting heavy losses on the enemy’s army in terms of personnel and equipment across the fronts, in addition to its positions deep within occupied Palestine, according to the summary which gave the sufficient details, as follows.
According to the summary, the total losses inflicted on the enemy, as recorded by the fighters of the Islamic Resistance, exceed 70 killed and more than 600 wounded among the officers and soldiers of the “Israeli” enemy army.
“This includes the destruction of 28 Merkava tanks, four military bulldozers, and several armored vehicles and personnel carriers. Additionally, three drones of the ‘Hermes 450’ model and one of the ‘Hermes 900’ model have been shot down.”
This tally does not include the losses incurred by the Israeli enemy in the military bases and sites in northern and deep occupied Palestine, the summary concluded.

Ultimately, the enemy is not a Russian or an American or any other person. The enemy lies in an ideology, a way of thinking, in a certain metaphysical force or spirit. The real problem, the actual enemy, is situated in a worldview that reduces the entire world and existence to a material phenomenon, in which human beings are no more than biological machines, biochemical processes devoid of Spirit or Soul. In such a context, biological survival and the pursuit of absolute dominance without any ethical or moral limits easily become the ultimate goal. Within that worldview, this is also perfectly logical: in a purely material world, ethics and morality are nothing more than an illusion arising somewhere in the biochemical machinery of our brains. Why should we allow ourselves to be hindered in the great game of survival of the fittest? Anyone who views life through that lens is already an instrument of destructive drive.

ParticipantAre important people even aware of how bad things have gotten between the sexes – and how powerful, civilization-wide, the effects are becoming? I suppose by design they are?
I cannot even tell you how staunchly I believed for so long in Star Trek Next Generation blank slate sexual equality. Words do not even convey my lifelong heartfelt belief, so you’re just going to have to imagine.
But the 2020’s, as with everything else, are really turning me around. And again, it is painful. I do not want to come to these conclusions at all.
But with the notavax – husband spends hundreds of hours plowing through the actual scientific papers, listening to scientists and doctors talk about the thing, cares most about the wife – but 4 office bitches think taking the vax is high-value and high-status and not taking it is low-value, low-status, The Ick. So what does the wife do, because 4 office bitches agree?
And again with the notavax, Biden preaching how he is going to come down hard on notanotavaxers, de-person, unemploy them, his political party is talking about total ostracisation from the economy and society, etc etc. papers please.
Meanwhile, we are periodically watching short youtube videos showing how crazy the democrats are getting. And she can see outside her window, is actively complaining about all the results of their policies – this is crazy, I don’t want this. ugh.
Then says that she’s going to vote for Biden because “I need to do the right thing” Vague explanations involving Trump being Bad but no specifics. He’s rude? Most specific thing.
Then she’s mad at me for getting fired over the notavax – you VOTED FOR EXACTLY THIS. Your entire family and workplace voted for exactly this.
Mad at me for the time spent unemployed, 100’s of applications notwithstanding. Do you understand the people you voted for are the ones backing this state of affairs? If you think of us as Jewish in 30’s Germany, trying to get by economically, run the new maze, you might not be too far off. (Due to my immutable characteristics, I am low-value, I am low status, I am Ick – I don’t personally care about that, irrelevant in and of itself, just looking to get a job – get paid and be useful…)
So after 4 years – and my occasional lighthearted reminders – there’s YOUR guy haha – doesn’t want to vote for Trump this year, which is okay, but WHY? (You’re trying to make me vote different!) no, I’m aghast that you cannot seem to articulate any REASONS. (what about the Gen Z part of your family, THEIR future? You understand what the Dems want for them??) Trump’s just icky. Or rather, the persona portrayed by the media including both Hitler and a giant squalling baby – which are totally incompatible – combine into a great big low status low value ick.
I think about voting as tool-using. Here’s my laundry list of problems/goals, what tools fit those goals? Who has a policy, temperament, values etc that seem to fit? So Trump is a tool. Is he a functional tool for the tasks at hand? Like, do you have specific things you want and have you thought about how to get there???????
If the whole world is shouting that Trump is low-value, low-status, and ick… if imageries and associations of Ick get bundled, BASKETED together and continually attached to Trump in news and social media and having been embedded, triggered and re-triggered, and then that’s all you hear from your phone, radio, tv, toaster oven, etc, AND it’s all you hear from the 4 office bitches that are continually on social media on their phones, then Trump is inextricably linked with low-status, low-value, and Ick.
And this seems to be the way Women make their voting choices? Idunno, I can only base my theories on the women I know, but it seems like they see specific problems, see the origins of those problems, see the agenda of each candidate, and then choose based on social value. The pickup artists from the early 2000’s had women all figured out??!?!??? Stop stopping making Ayn Rand right and start stopping making the PUA’s of the year 2001 right. Fuck.
And when men try to communicate with women about current problems… as part of problem-solving.
A man who complains, who indicates being disadvantaged – that’s a low-status man. He’s self-confirming it. That’s a low-value man. That’s ICK. File him under Not Real People.
And if women cannot engage with us in problem-solving – especially if it involves problems affecting men… I mean, wtf is government FOR, what are hierarchies and job positions in the corporate world FOR… (for status and value signaling?) if it does not COMPUTE, words are noise, the result is “Oh so you’re saying you are low value – sorry, can’t hear you now” then wtf is the use of women IN the governance world?
Whoever blanket broadcasts the Ick message, whoever gets the office chicks parroting, they rule Our Democracy then?
When Occupy Wall street was attacked nationwide as directed by fusion centers of federal govt, local govt, corporations, banks… Obama… the news showed us “squalor” which was the few bearded filthy marxists that showed up to the party and the encampments that the security services had absolutely trashed the night before.
Newscasters, interviewees, authority figures, assured us there had been “sanitary issues” that made them step in, so the crushing of constitutional rights and the democratic voice, the violence in beating people or zip-tying in such a way to give them permanent nerve damage… and a million office chicks, when they heard “sanitary issues” flipped to “fuck yeah, count me in” (I know because I was working in a big office at the time…) Truncheons to the head? Nerve damaged hands forever? Shut up and take my money.
YES they previously shared some concerns about banks ripping people off, mortgage fraud, insane purposeful raising of home prices at the very least, etc. Up until that point.
And Covid, that was sort of a sanitary issue as well. Wearing a mask, following the arrows on the floor, taking the shot, slathering with sanitizer – sanitary. And remember the viral stuff on social media of disgusting people licking stuff in supermarkets and putting it back on the shelf? As if to heighten the underlying disgust factor in the populace? Happened right before Covid started hitting the news.
So there’s a sanitary ick and a social ick that are incredibly high priority. And it works by repeated thing-association-juxtaposition. And you can exacerbate it by poking away at people creating an “unattached ick anxiety” and then giving it something specific to focus on. Can’t say any specific thing bad about Trump, but what’s specifically bad about Trump is – he’s Ick. The office bitches all agree. I’d be a little less hard on them if they hadn’t pressured my wife into the shot.
Idunno. I’m coming around to a view totally opposite from what I held my entire life. More than anything I’m sort of bewildered, flabbergasted, and thinking how I can take my energy, money, and resources out of circulation for any person or entity that hates me. Either by associating with entities/people that don’t hate me or reduction of activity/consumption altogether.
I really, really don’t want to be a misogynist. So so many conversations about the current state of affairs with women now go much like conversations with Christians in the 90’s. They pursue me with argument, I try to disengage, they won’t let me, so then I turn and crush every pillar of their religion one by one – original sin, repentance, miracles, etc you name it. We can stop anytime you want. But they keep going and when they are finally exhausted I ask – so, think of any followup answers to any of those questions that came up? Nope — the conversation always ended with: “I still believe” — in WHAT? Every last thing was smashed to dust. You have to believe in things to believe.
And so women who are unhappy with how things are going, who are affected by multiple negative results of all the Current Things, make sure to close out any conversation with “But I still believe” – witness for the Faith (blue square) – going to “do the right thing” anyway.
I point out that Tulsi and RFK are now with Trump in a coalition govt – but then I hear back that they’ve been touched by, contaminated by, profaned by, the Ick. By touch and/or proximity.
Respectful, nice discussion isn’t cutting it. Should I be browbeating, shaming, purposely provoking a disgust/shame response/association with things like an asshole? Go into the street and punch “nazis” in the face like Dems in 2019?
Anyway, 4th day of training/orientation. New trainer. Imagine a female corporate trainer from PNW that does spirit cooking. Got it pictured in your mind?
Let’s see if I got it right – jet black hair, unappealing bangs, nearly-black lipstick, the exact glasses you are picturing in your head right now, tatoos including around and under the chin as well as occult-looking ones on the palms.
First thing I had to do today for training. Let everyone in the class know, if I was a potato, how I would be prepared as food. (not weird of our trainer at all, is it? To ask us to say how we would be cooked?)
THIS trainer requires not only that we keep cameras on but keep mute button off. The women are almost all continually “OMG right, amirite?” and laughing at every not particularly funny thing. The guys are being even MORE careful. Maintaining neutral expressions, being careful because with the mute button off, even a single involuntary snort of air at something at the wrong time could spell disaster. We’ve got our eyes on survival here. Now is not the time, headed into winter, to be wandering around homeless jobless exposed to the elements. It is seriously night and day, what the two sexes in the class think is their situation.
Ahhh save back in the warm bowels of corporate america again, just further down the road than things were in 2022 when they fired me for notavax.

Vladimir Putin demonstrates BRICS banknote
Published October 24, 2024 12:20
The banknote’s design includes flags and key landmarks of BRICS member states, including Kazakhstan.The banknote, which features the flags of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, symbolizes the collective ambitions of these nations to explore alternatives to the US dollar in cross-border transactions. This development highlights the growing effort within BRICS to establish a more independent economic system, one less reliant on Western financial structures.
