    Some famous diplomat (I think it was Russian Foreign Secretary, Sergey Lavrov) remarked that dealing with the United States was comparable to carefully escorting a rabid dog to the cemetery.

    I think that elimination of useless elites through the shrinking of their numbers (theoretically down to one top tyrant in charge, and everyone else a slave) through various wars of attrition is far more probable than the eradication of useless eaters by means of genocide.

    Time and arithmetic are definitely on the side of the downtrodden, while greedy selfishness (and arithmetic) is now and forever against the possibility of a tiny group taking everything from an enormous number of people who (with nothing left to be stolen) could not then support the elites in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    It’s basically the old “Goose that laid the golden egg” story, but with a lot more bloodshed, car chases and explosions.

    . . . and the bits they don’t own, like your shitty house, they don’t really want to own.?

    Oh, they own that, too. Lox, stock and bagel. and a fair bit of multi-hypothecated collateral all of that real estate provides for them, too.

    And notice how fluff news (and hard news too, actually) will NEVER include enough of the 5 W’s to make conclusive sense out of it. Something (or many things) will be missing, which leave the reader probably wanting to fill in the gaps so that they can understand the “newsiness” of it and move on with their lives. Unfortunately, the only way to do that (other than pursue your own line of independent deep-dive research) is to listen to more bullshit fluff news.

    Quite a racket. Only a deeply deranged crazy person would purvey such a product. The prosecution rests its case.

    They need us to be attacked, have a world war, so they can default on the debt. I swear to God that’s what this is. Why should they care? Dr. No claims he’ll keep them all safe in their bunkers. Honest. If it collapses without WWIII everyone will know who’s responsible and hang them.”

    Damn good summary. Scary, but accurate, and really concise. All we need now is a solution, but wait! We already have one. Time.

    There is certainly plenty of uncertainty in human affairs but for the larger part survival depends more on competence than it does on random events. You’ll generally get better results, more dependably, by doing things right than by doing them wrong, despite the vicissitude of good fortune or shit luck. This is especially true in human interactions with other humans, and even more especially especial in the matter of getting along with them.

    The bottom line of getting along with others is that what goes around comes around, primarily because what goes around is the only thing around that CAN come around, so if you ain’t being treated as well as you would like then there is at least one thing you can always do about it for dependably immediate improved results. Do it better (if you know how) or find out how and then do it that way instead.

    Ahh, Civilizations and Empires! Such wondrously dazzling things. Of course they do come with certain costs attached.

    The hidden costs (extremely high and as often as not deliberately hidden) of living by way of organized involuntary division of labor (i.e. “civilization”) that is so hyped in the history books and force fed into our brains (from cradle to grave) as the cure for human deficiency ( I guess the millions of years we survived prior to that were just a fluke) that brought us the miracles of centralized electronic surveillance and computer assisted mass murder by psychotic elites, is indeed a pretty high ticket item.

    Here are some of the the things that are stolen from us at gunpoint to pay for its blessings:

    Except for the small and narrow field of their own respective specialties the vast majority of civilized people don’t really know how to competently do anything else. They can’t grow their own food, make their own clothing, build their shelter or defend their families from dangerous predators. God help any of them if they are ever required to do anything important by themselves.

    They don’t KNOW anything for themselves either. Ask any of them (high and low born alike) practically any materially important question that might be vitally critical to their own survival and they will either give you a ludicrously wrong answer (Such as: boys can become girls or vice versa. Epstein shot himself. Covid-19 was an accident. The vax is safe and effective.) or they will turn to another source (who they utterly depend on for everything the questioner doesn’t know for themselves, which is most things) who they trust with their lives to provide vital information. . . . . . are told by those vaunted experts a package of utter bullshit that is a blatant and knowing conspiracy of lies which might have literally FATAL consequences if believed. And all too often (meaning, most of the time) they still believe it. And consequently die.

    All or most of the real, actual, technical knowledge and skills that are, in fact, vitally necessary to the survival of our selves and our kind, are all but lost because the preceding generations who had been passing them along to every new member of the next generation who was capable of being taught . . . . stopped doing so. Traditional parent-to-child transmission of knowledge about what those individual parents believed to be true, was more or less FORCIBLY terminated and the job was handed off to experts and other people who tell you that they know better than you but really don’t ( and I mean REALLY don’t.)

    And so we find ourselves adrift in a sea of fools, led by ignoramuses who don’t even know the difference between right and wrong, much less the wisdom of the sages.

    Having lost the knowledge and skills and motivation to procure survival and happiness the “old fashioned way” of insisting upon knowing and doing the steps of work that will (truthfully) produce healthy survival and the supreme happiness that only true love can provide, humanity now tries to fill the void with perverted substitutes that they think will come close to giving them those feelings that they obsessively crave, and yet can never attain because of how they are trying to attain them.(that is, by paying other people to do everything for them, rather than doing everything one possibly can to make their own loved ones truly secure and happy.)

    They have become, in a word, ADDICTS, complete with all of the horribly and horrifying behaviors and consequences which addiction entails.

    Imagine that. We are adrift in a sea of fools, captained by ignoramuses, and crewed by addicts

    Doing illegal things to people does not make them see the error of their ways. It eventually makes them see the error in YOUR ways.

    Enforcement is how this works, they can throw you in jail for life, you can’t do anything to them. The only way to change that is to do something to them, illegally, so that they start seeing the errors of their ways.

    Telling people to do illegal things is worse than just bad advice (for many reasons), it also sets those people up for the planned escalatory violent responses, which is your rather transparently obvious agenda in the first place. Better dial it back a notch CCP Man, your “agent provocateur” slip is showing. (same goes for your “Death to the Jews!” cheerleading.) It’s not merely illogical and immoral thinking, dude. It’s evil.

    So AFKTT starts to come around and more clearly seeing a few of the things other well meaning commentators here on TAE have been saying to him. That should be rejoiced and validated, not scorned and slapped around. Having a go at him doesn’t help that at all. The time for sarcasm and slaps-up-side-the-head is when folks are wrong, not when they’re right.

    Our useful purpose is not to fix THINGS (like climate, food, civilization and so on.) Those are just material things. Our purpose is to fix PEOPLE, by helping them see truths of their own free will. and helping them see HOW to go about finding and recognizing those truths.

    Once people can start seeing plain old garden variety truth then they will very quickly “fix” all the stuff broken stuff, with very little else needed from us than encouragement.

    the linked video clip ain’t exactly “brand new” info in all respects, but certainly is being presented in an all new sort of way. [ see: https://youtu.be/f6OcQWexH5M?si=nhTuqjf7lu_DHylg ]

    I thought it might provide food for thought to some members of our commentariat who identity as anti-Jew or Anti-Semite, because it looks like they need to reassess who in the hell it is that they are actually “Anti” towards. Looks like it ain’t who they think it is because the majority of “Jews” aren’t Semites and the vast majority of Levantine Semites are not event remotely Jewish and have never claimed to be.

    What gives here, folks? Could it be that the REAL bad guys (and no one is arguing against the fact that those Zionist/Israeli bad guys are GENUINELY about as bad as bad gets) are not actually Jewish? And if not, then who in Hell are they? (pun intended).

    Three guesses, and the first two guesses don’t count.

    I suggest that they are nothing more than a more-or-less Dynastic line of psychopaths who got organized quite a while back and are now a pack of predominantly KJhazarian wolves still trying to hide themselves in a flock of nearly extinct Judean and Sephardic “Jews” who practically don’t even exist any more.

    The big problem that attaches to hiring henchmen to pull off crimes is that “the Company” winds up with employees who are stupid enough to take the job, with a job-boss who is stupid enough to hire them.

    Basically, neither of those parties can see far enough down the road of consequences to notice the disaster that awaits them if they keep doing such stupid stuff.

    Of course the hirelings botch the job of whatever they’re paid to do (they ARE, after all, stupid) and of course the boss (also a little thick in the arts and sciences of long range successful bossery) is too stupid to notice that the job is being absolutely trashed by incompetence henchpersons working under incompetent management.

    Too dumb for words, but apparently not too dumb to rule the world, for a while at least.

    Clearly the United States (or, rather, the complex Cabal…described in detail elsewhere… that the US compliantly serves) does not want to relinquish its grip on the compliant junkyard dog (Israel) that has served it so well for so many years in dividing and preventing Islam from challenging the Cabal’s control over not just all of the region’s fabulous physical resources, but also the all important GATEWAY between East and West that the region has been throughout all of recorded history.
    You can control the West without the Levant. And you can control the East without the Levant, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to control both East and West at once without simultaneously controlling that irreplaceable Gateway between East and West at the same time.
    For that to happen then the Palestinians cannot be allowed a state of their own any more than they can have a real voice in the exclusively Jewish state of Israel. The US will not willingly allow them to have an actual role in either one. It would totally screw the deal.
    And THAT, squeamish reader, is the simple brutal truth, and THAT is why the so-called “West” wants the Palestinians dead and gone forever. THAT is the real reason why the US is providing the weapons and money to erase Gaza and its occupants. They are an obstacle to that Grand Plan of WORLD control that requires control of that ancient and necessary nexus of transportation and CONTROL.
    It’s also why China’s captive US Democrat Party is making all of those loud but ineffectual noises in ostensible (but totally non-substantial) public relations “support” for Gazans. China wants to appear to have clean hands, but they need control of that Gateway as much as anyone else, and mean to have it, eventually.

    There is a type of knowledge and understanding that practically everyone sort of gets on a visceral level. Call it “gut reaction” or “common sense” or “intuition”, whatever. Call it what you want, but it is a real. In fact it is the realest things there is, because it is reality itself. It’s called the truth. That which is, IS, and in the final analysis there’s simply no alternative.

    For example, the ‘Covid-19, killer vax, masked-up lockdown’ was a purposeful attack on humanity carried out by explicitly collaborating psychopaths. Ditto the attempted conquest of Russia by means of the Ukraine War and the anti-Russia sanctions. Much the same can be said of the inexcusable evil of Zionist Israel’s attempted genocide of the entire Palestinian Arab race, and the weaponization of virtually every official American institution, including Law, Health, Education, Information, and Finance, to name just a few out of many.

    Those who reject enormously obvious truths like those just listed, and who dedicate themselves to the opposite positions, can be accurately described, AS A CLASS, as being actually and literally insane. By pursuing the opposite of truth, they also become cognitively and emotionally dedicated to the opposite of truth’s fruits and benefits. They instead suffer the INVERSION (and perversion) of the very concept of true being better than false, good being better than bad, and life being better than death.

    This inversion of all that is true and good does not exactly enhance the perpetrators’ ability to think rationally or improve themselves either.

    The destructive consequence of this inversion must not be underestimated. It’s totally crippling. More importantly, the SOLUTION to the problem must also not be overlooked because there is only ONE solution, and that solution is to seek, see and voluntarily ACCEPT truth as being both TRUE and as being vitally necessary to survival.

    This can become paradoxically difficult to achieve in those who reject truth BECAUSE it is true (and thus “bad”, for the guilty liar), and in those who espouse lies BECAUSE they are lies (and therefore good for those who WANT to lie, cheat, steal and kill more successfully.)

    Woe unto the civilization or society that falls into the tar pit of that inversion.

    At the risk of sounding redundant (although the statement is NOT redundant in the least) it must also be clearly understood that those who believe in falsehood and oppose belief in truth are ALSO “inverted” on the topic of good and bad. They will, for example, assert that preventing, harming, disabling or killing children is sometimes a GOOD or necessary or beneficial thing. They assert that the removal or prevention of human beings from Earth is a worthy goal, too. Some even claim that the truth itself is sometimes bad or harmful and should therefore be hidden, censored, banned or punished.

    All such positions and intentions are of course utterly insane, and that can become a serious problem if and when such positions and intentions, and LIES are accepted.

    Unfortunately (but truthfully, I’m sad to say) our government and all of the official institutions enmeshed with it have become insane, to a flamboyantly lunatic degree. But that’s not the worst news. The worst news is that vast swaths of the population have ACCEPTED those things as being “normal” (or even desirable), because they are crazy too.

    Hatred is not a good thing to want, and refusing to accept truthful communication about that (or any other fact) is not an effective to cure oneself of the disability. To think that such positions are somehow “good” amounts to wanting to believe a lie and wanting NOT to examine a truth, and that’s a pretty fair description of insane.

    If you interact directly or even indirectly with an AI System for very long you will eventually experience a level of frustration and incredulity that you did not previously believe was humanly possible.

    And I couldn’t help but notice that our whole Western System has pretty much handed over the reins of its Civilization to fools who depend on AI systems for everything from mixing their drinks to doing their strategic planning and “deep thinking”. What would go wrong, right?

    Or is it better to be bluntly frank instead of sarcastic and say, how could it even POSSIBLY go right?

    You can’t and won’t cure the elite of their many and despicable faults by changing the elite, because just look at what the word “elite” means. It means someone who was lower down being raised up. Same guy, higher position. Or another closer to home way to say it is that the so-called elites are just YOU with more power and money. Same human beings. Higher positions.

    We fix the elites by fixing ourselves, which should start with the heartfelt and deeply understand realization that what I just said is true. And not just merely true, but vitally existentially true.

    No one in their right mind would do the destructive ( and self-destructive) things that our elites do on a routine daily basis for no purpose other than to maintain their essentially pointless, useless and worthless status of being “elite.” It is wincingly pathetic. Just look at them. They are utterly incapacitated (alone and in groups) at practically everything necessary to the sustenance of life. Talk about USELESS ! No one in their right mind would aspire to that, and thus they are the poster child and embodiment of being crazy.

    You cannot escape them any more than you can escape yourself. If anyone else does the same dumb shit that they do, then they too will get the same damned result. So what is the same dumb shit that they do? Well I would suggest finding out precisely and exactly what that shit is so that you can avoid doing it sort of accidentally on purpose yourself and wind up in the same shape that they’re in.

    Just for starters, here’s one of those destructive and self-destructive dumb things that elites do : they believe they’re better than everybody else, as justification for doing bad things to everybody else (like lying, cheating, stealing and killing).

    Here’s another dumb thing they do and believe in. They believe that the defeat of a competitor is a gain for the self.

    And one last dumb thing they do, which is probably the dumbest thing of all: is that elites and their wannabes absolutely REFUSE (and that word is putting it far FAR too lightly) to listen for understanding to the truths that others are telling them. To them it is always and only about the perceived fight, and the obsession to win it regardless of cost, no holds barred and regardless of whether their chosen opponent has a beef with them or not. The truth doesn’t matter. It’s the contest that matters, and perceived “victory” within that contest.

    The best one could hope for in that case, even if every fight is won, is a life of interminable conflict in which no one (not even the “victor”) can ever rise above the level of combatant in a never ending war.

    There is, of course, a different way forward, a better way I think. It consists of realizing that in every conflict the side that is wrong, the side that promulgates an untruth or a contra-reality, can be cured of that affliction by being directed to recognize of their own free will the TRUTH that they were denying.

    That’s often an agonizingly long drawn-out process, but it sure beats the alternative.

    @aspnaz must be peeing himself with delight over China’s deft play (evil genius) of the Iran-Israel-US dynamic interactions recently. I must grudgingly admit that the Middle Kingdom remains second to none in the Dark Arts of espionage and skulduggery. They are indeed the Dragon, with all which that entails. Just look at how they took down the USA, in broad daylight no less (!) , with publicly visible bribery, treason, mass murder and other even more perverse and debauched chicanery involving children.

    Their most serious problem now (after such big recent gains) is that despite all of their myriad successes both within their own country and elsewhere, they are (as always) faced with the same problem that has always plagued and stymied their existence: they’re still stuck on the wrong side of the Himalayan Plateau with a bunch of treacherous, singularly troublesome and rather physically unattractive Chinese people.

    I reckon that the Chinese ruling classes (who almost laughably purport to be Commies at the moment) will try to solve that the same way they have always tried to solve it: to kill each other in vast numbers by every means imaginable (they’ve tried them all) until the population gets small enough to subjugate all over again.

    A disproportionate number of Asians have a propensity for the same mental illness that our diligent Troll @aspnaz suffers (which can come as no particular surprise, since @aspie is an upstanding patriotically Chinese person): they think that winning the contest means winning the game, when in truth it is their obsession with the contest that ensures they will NEVER win the game because they will always be trying to win the fight.

    @aspie, the only thing I can do for you now (and I will continue to do it, as promised, until you just stop taking my calls) is to leave you to your self-inflicted fate. Too bad about that race thing that you’re stuck with, but we all have our own cross to bear (as the old Christian saying goes) and I’m sure you’ll come up with some sort of solution (the wrong sort, of course.)

    I give you one last video as a parting gift. Consider it an audio-visual aid to assist you in understanding the mistake you are making. It’s the classic Buddie Hackett joke about the duck hunter and the farmer. When you understand the joke you will understand your mistake. Happy hunting.

    @DrDRich, @aspnaz, and fans

    The transition from being WRONG (deluded, misinformed, ignorant, deceitful, evasive, etc.) to being truthfully informed, corrected and thereby RIGHT, is difficult and fraught with peril. The peril is that defending error or deliberate falsehood, especially if defended “successfully”, runs the highly probable risk of further descent into the insanity of believing the opposite of what simply is.

    An early clue that such is the case is the resort to personalized ridicule, epithet, involuntary silencing, bully tactics, ganging up, lying, misdirection, and a host of other illogical behaviors which are all variations on the basic act of evading a truth by refusing to confront and openly discuss the possibility that perhaps it is, after all, just a plain old true thing that is pointless to disagree with because it just is what it is: garden variety reality.

    Both of you guys (and some of your sidekicks) are doing that, and you’re doing yourself no favors thereby, because the idea you are clinging to is simply NOT true. It’s false, bogus, un-aligned with reality, and ultimately it will carry you to the darkest of dark places in which you will be trapped by your own unwavering adherence to the very lie that is killing you. And in the case of the Jews, Blacks, Amer-Indians, and many others it is a lie that has killed uncountable millions (maybe billions) of other innocents as well. In fact, your prejudicial condemnation of millions of people based solely on the accident of their birth HAPPENS TO BE THE SAME ONE THAT THE ZIONIST ISRAELI’S ARE USING TO SLAUGHTER TENS OF THOUSANDS OF TRULY INNOCENT WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN GAZA.

    I have no personal interest in arguing with either of you, but I have GREAT interest in persuading you to look at the truth rather than attacking me for saying it to you. You are in a “Chapel Perilous” of the most dangerous sort, and I would very much like to see you NOT lose that combat and become evil.

    So, you apparently think that ALL Jews are bad by virtue of their chromosomes. Alright then, PROVE IT. State your claim and defend it with facts, if you can.

    All you have to do is present your own case, answer up honestly to the opposing arguments, and go with the one that is truer.

    Oh, and one other thing. Stop giving me so much shit for no good reason. It makes it look like you can’t afford to even LOOK at truths, much less answer to them.

    I know that the two state solution is the only acceptable solution within the Overton window at the moment, but time will move on and the “no more Israel” solution will creep onto the table, although the world is not ready for it at the moment. The world is still pretending that the Jews should have their own country despite the fact that the country was built on crime and commits further crimes continuously.”

    I completely agree with your point as quoted above, and always have, consistently. So why do you think that I don’t? Whatever the reason it would make both of our lives simpler and less aggravating if you just spit it out in plain declarative sentences instead of the constant sniping.

    The sordid imagery, demeaning language and general nastiness directed toward who you mistakenly think me to be doesn’t have much effect on me except annoyance and disappointment, and yet it disproportionately harms you in the process. Don’t you recognize that as a mistake? Do you feel so strongly about an argument (in which you are plainly taking the wrong stance) that you think it’s okay to degrade yourself publicly in order to “win” it?

    I’m sure no high falutin’ military genius, but a REALLY big and important event just happened that will probably get overlooked in the general hot air and puffery getting spewed into the atmosphere over the Iranian missile strikes on Israel.

    There are two big and important things, actually, which although they are intimately related are not exactly the same thing. The first thing is regional and immediate. The second one signals a change in the world.

    Okay, item #1: Iran has just demonstrated to Israel, the United States and literally EVERYONE ELSE who cared enough to be paying any attention, that Iran has demonstrated offensive missile SUPREMECY over not just Israel but also over every single Western asset of any and all kinds within thousands of miles of Iran. Let me say that a different way. Iran has publicly demonstrated to the world that it can do anything that it wants, to any thing that Israel possess, at a time and place of Iran’s sole choosing, and there is nothing that the US or any combination of it’s vassals & colonies can do to prevent or stop that from happening.

    To describe that from a significantly different vantage point. The ball is now firmly under the control of Iran and those who are backing Iran’s play. Iran can (must) now do whatever it considers to be best to their way of thinking. Iran is not THE TOP Dog, but it’s a bigger and better dog than the former Empire which Iran has now bested on the battlefield. The Empire’s combined BEST weapons, forces and defenses can NOT stop Iran (and backers) if Iran thinks the issue is serious enough to warrant military force.

    ADDENDUM to item #1: and they did it with the SECOND best equipment of their THIRD strongest player. That does not yet consider or mention what Russia, China and India must certainly have in their arsenal of PROVENLY (as 14 April) better than best equipment. [never underestimate India].

    I think the full ramifications of this event have only barely begun to sink in. In a nutshell, the main battle of WW3 has ended with an overwhelming defeat of Death Cult Empire on the battlefield, and (in related news) also in the marketplace and finally in the court of broad public opinion (Jurisdiction, Earth).

    There is still a lot of fighting and dying ahead, but the outcome is already certain. WW3 is in a stage very very comparable to the current stage of the war in Ukraine (which was a large battle in the greater war), the worst of it is essentially over (strategically speaking) and notice that we did NOT blow ourselves to Kingdom Come in a nuclear war . . . yet. Not too bad for a bunch of cave men.

    Item#2 : As all of implications and consequences of Item #1 (above) sink in all sorts of other things will have to be adjusted to work within the new reality of the United States being not merely an Empire in decline, but AN EMPIRE NO MORE. The polarity has flipped. The West is now the SMALL dog. If you don’t believe that then review what Iran just did to Israel.

    The United States has long been at the slow drip financial mercy of absolutely intractable mathematical realities. And NOW it is at the military mercy of it’s former victims and adversaries who it had been using force of arms to milk dry for nearly a century.

    This fact will be demonstrated by changes in the Big Stuff immediately. For example: all of the straits, canals and commercial maritime choke-points are firmly held by powerful non-Western nations and/or blocs of such nations. For example: the US Dollar is being dismantled as we speak, back to a level that is commensurate to its value to other nations’ preferred currencies and their connected financial/commercial interests. That will eventually equate to pennies on the dollar I reckon. No one is ready for that, so it’s going to be messy for Dollar holders and crooked lawyers.

    I think this kind of pole-reversal will take an unexpectedly long time to play out. It takes what seems like forever for 7 billion people to more or less get the memo and settle into new routines, but settle they shall, and it will usually be in the manner that THEY choose, rather than the way that the West was accustomed to choosing.

    Thermopylae, Waterloo, Stalingrad, Midway, April 14th.

    It’s almost funny. I feel somewhat like Chicken Little, except that I’m not running around saying that the sky is falling. I saying that the sky is DOWN, and that it fell last Sunday.

    This is a big crazy world. Shit happens. The worst tends to be unexpected and without warning, so just in case I don’t get another chance to say this I want to assure you all of something. I will continue to communicate truthfully to you, gentle reader (and you other kinds, too, for that matter) for as long as you are in any way willing to receive it. And I will attempt to do my best to do the best for you in that regard, as best that I am able to see it going forward, until we all get to the exciting conclusion of whatever this story turns out to be.

    2) TAE: Where Worldviews Collide
    sigh…”

    Oh, don’t sigh, John. “Where world views collide” is definitely THE best place to be. It’s where the action is! It’s where communication matters the most! To get from the “bad side” world view to the “good side” world view it is necessary to get to and through the place where those views collide. It is where untruths are abandoned so truths can be seen and (naturally) adopted as obvious truth, and is typically a wildly contentious battlefield where participants come face to face with right and wrong, good and bad, truth and lies.

    The other things that matters a lot is for there to be people here like you, who are gifted in the truly gentle art of benevolent persuasion (especially persuasion by personal example.) We need help crossing that line. It isn’t easy.

    I want to wax philosophical for a few minutes (imagine that!) and maybe even get a little metaphysical, too, while I’m at it, with a dash of Physics & Theoretical Physics thrown in for seasoning.

    Given humans’ cynical propensity for immediately exploring all new information to determine its potential for use as a weapon, there are some interesting (and I think valid) inferences, deductions and conclusions we could make. And when I say cynical, I mean CYNICAL. I bet that when Jesus proclaimed the supreme truth that access to paradise was through loving and treating others as one’s self, that there was more than one joker in the crowd who thought to himself, “Say, that’s pretty good! I bet I could use that line to bamboozle the suckers and make a quick shekel.”

    Anyway, here’s the deduction (admittedly a BIT of a long shot, really pushing the envelope on what constitutes a valid deduction) :

    There are enough evilly motivated people, with enough apparently available resources, that if they could destroy every good thing in the vilest possible way (and the whole world itself) then they WOULD.
    In fact, I think that if they COULD have done it then they would have done it by now.

    They’re certainly trying their damnedest (pun intended) to do just that, but so far no cigar. They have obviously not got the job done yet.

    Why not? They certainly haven’t lacked in terms of time, money or official authorization. They’ve had the lion’s share of all those things for hundreds and thousands of years (perhaps hundred OF thousands ? ! ) . Throughout all of history in fact.

    I think that their failure in destroying all that is good and the whole world itself is because they CAN’T. In other words, “They would if they could but they haven’t so they can’t.”

    I reckon that the balancing factor is that (ultimately) evil is stupidity. Literally. In its most essential form evil is simply contradiction (and contraposition) of that which is, of that which is true, of that which is real. When all is said and done, the Universe is what it is, and therefore those who choose to disagree with that are just out of luck, evil as fuck, and STUPID. I should know!

    Thus, as the bad guys get more and more worked up and obsessively intent upon wreaking ever more awfuller stuff to ever more hapless victims, they at the same time (AND FOR THE SAME REASON) become more and more stupid (and faster and faster, too, as they “double down” on doubling down) and thus ever more outlandishly unable to make things happen in the real world.

    As examples, just look at their advertising! They are literally CELEBRATING their flamboyantly obvious lunatic grade insanity. I mean, REALLY! Admirals wearing a dress? Surgeons deforming and removing children’s genitals to change their gender? Killing livestock to save food? Killing humanity to save people? How about transforming conscious awareness itself into unconscious binary digits for upload to a machine which has absolutely zero capacity for conscious awareness.? What do even CALL that? Immortality through suicide?

    Note that the slavering morons who threaten you with nuclear annihilation by means of hyper-automated ultra high technology weapons systems don’t even know how to set up their own damn cell phones, and couldn’t wire up a light bulb to save themselves from darkness.

    Their self-demise sounds and feels like fingernails on a chalkboard, and can be scary as Hell to those with vivid imaginations, but the bad guys’ personal capacity to actually pull it off is close to zero. When the time comes to throw that big old doomsday switch they won’t be able to do it, because to be that evil is to ALSO be that stupid. . . and no one that stupid knows how to actually DO anything!

    Of course, accidents can happen. So don’t just sit back and chill while the assholes do themselves in. There is still plenty of shit that can can go seriously wrong if you don’t stay on your toes and take care of business. It’s not all just on autopilot ya know. Open your peepers, work your ass off, and for God’s sake KEEP COMMUNICATING no matter what.

    Mr Ritter himself described 2 decades as protector of Israel. That seems to give anyone the right to lead into a comment with it. Beyond that your comments are indicative of a complex. Not constructive that I can see.”

    At the same time that Mr Ritter described his time as a protector of Israel he explained why he USED TO HAVE such an opinion during a certain period in the past (basically because he was doing his job as a UN weapons inspector and as such had not properly considered the viewpoints, experiences and fundamental humanity of the Palestinians).

    Since that time he has VERY publicly admitted his error and also VERY ADAMANTLY changed his mind about that Zionist state and now views it with deeply felt condemnation of that nation’s depraved, cowardly acts of evil.

    Dr D Rich left that part out, (and insinuated that I too was some sort of Israel booster.) He is welcome to go fuck himself for both of those unprovoked cheap shots) but to top it all off (and what genuinely pisses me off) is that Dr Rich then implied (for no discernable reason except his own nasty attitude) that I, too, supported Israel, which I do not. He knows that, too, which makes his lie an intentional lie. I guess that wasn’t enough for him, so just to top things off he goes on to just pull out of his ass the notion that I am somehow at fault for Scott Ritter not talking much about the Attempted Covid Democide of the Human Race (which I would suppose Ritter avoided as a topic because, a) it was outside his field of expertise, and b) nobody asked him about it.

    Please explain how my comments were indicative of a complex. D Rich lied. I called him a liar, and proved it. What’s complicated about that?

    @DrDRich

    Does anyone other than DeeBS know if Scott “Personal Protector of Israel” Ritter offered his expertise on COVID and other signs of The Apocalypse?”

    Scott Ritter has made it abundantly clear that he thinks Zionist Israel sucks and has deservedly lost all right to be recognized as a civilized nation, or even exist. So, how do you justify in your own mind your utterly bullshit disingenuous attempt to imply that he is a so-called “Protector of Israel”? What gives, Doc? Has your personal dislike of me caused your brain to short circuit?
    Additionally, I have NEVER suggested, hinted, stated, or implied that Scott Ritter has or had ANY position to publicly espouse about any aspect of the Covid Crime…… so why are trying to paint me with that phony brush?

    Do you REALLY want to get into a piss fight with me? I would prefer that you find some other hobby, but if you insist on wasting time publicly humiliating yourself, then have at it. I might be able to help you out with that, but so far you seem to be doing a good enough job of it yourself.

    I think you will greatly appreciate how well Scott Ritter articulates what you’re trying to say, and he pulls no punches on what he thinks of the Zionists and their Bible thumping cheer leading for genocide:

    (but also note that he doesn’t exactly throw ALL Jews under the race bus either. Evil is as evil does. Use your higher rationality..

    Steve Kirsch, UK ONS denies request from 7 MPs by claiming that the vaccines are safe so there is no need to do any analysis that might show otherwise.
    The head of the UK ONS says that the data is available for qualified researchers but qualified researchers who have challenged the narrative have been denied access. So the data shall remain hidden!”

    It is simple and easy to tell the difference between which side of a protracted conflict is more right than the other side. It’s the one that remains willing to explore all of the information, uncensored and unpunished, regarding all aspects of the issue. They don’t stand to lose anything by letting the truth fall where it may, because the truth is all they want.

    The side that stands to lose something by letting the truth come out is the side that has been wrong and lying about it from the git-go.

    So, there you have it. The side that’s right wants to look at ALL the information and the side that’s wrong is the side that wants to hide, silence, censor, and restrict it.

    The only way for the wrongsters to simulate “winning” the disputation of factuality is to hide facts and get people to believe that lies are true. Generally speaking, that’s not a good long range strategy because truth is durable and falsity is flimsy. Sooner or later the truth WILL come out, and the lies with it. Every time, although sometimes it takes a LONG time.

    Things outside my window are looking like that time has come.

    All that the United States, or Israel or NATO need to do in order to stop their losses and actually keep a significant proportion of what they’ve already stolen in the past, is to JUST STOP TRYING TO STEAL EVERYBODY ELSE’S STUFF. Just cease and desist from attempting to colonize and enslave the entire world all for their own tiny elitist selfish selves.

    But the tiny elitist selfish selves of the US, NATO and Zionist Israel CANNOT stop. To stop now would mean too many bankruptcies, prison sentences and gallows ropes. Which means that they are going to use up all of their own resources in the effort to go on stealing in the vain attempt to forestall what everyone else clearly sees to be the inevitable end to the crime spree.

    Another way to explain the situation, using political terminology which many people have already mentioned is very appropriately descriptive, is that the United States, NATO and Israel have voluntarily engaged in (and refused to disengage from) self defeating wars of attrition against enemies who outclass them in every important way, and who don’t have to spend much to just go right on winning until US/NATO/Israel have spent ALL of their own resources and simply “are no more.”

    To which the rest of the world says, “Rest In Peace” (or Rot In Hell), depending on how the respective speakers feel about it at the moment.

    But it DOES include lots of Jewish surnames all the way back to Biblical times. The thing to notice is that Biblical times is not the bottom, and that Jews aren’t the only critters in the warren.

    With the exception of the minutes of the day that you wasted on misdiagnosing Dr D, and pretending to misunderstand @poppie’s intent, Happy Birthday.

    As a doctor you might reconsider the wisdom of encouraging folks to harbor a grudge against all members of a class because of the foul deeds of only a part of that class. After the vast medical crimes endemic to the Covid-19 pandemic creation, and subsequent vax atrocities, I would think that you would encourage people to practice more discernment. You might want them to show it to you and your fellow practitioners some day (so many of whom happen to be Jewish, by the way.)
