#1 – The first and most successful press psyop within the United States is the Federalist Papers
#2 – The War Between the States, The United States Civil War, NEVER ended.
#3 – The majority of information contained within the elementary school history
during my youth is a half truth, the most damnable of lies.
#4 – There is NO such thing as Neo-Nazism, there is Nazism. The scourge of Nazism
has it’s roots in and has been fueled and nurtured by Western “Capitalism”
to this very moment.
The “Space Race” was the extremely thin veneer used to obfuscate the race for accurate intercontinental ballistic missiles. As the director of the Marshall Space Flight Center Mr. V2’s history is not a mystery. One might have thought Ole Blighty might have raised some objections to the elevation of Mr. V2 to the pinnacle of United States rocketry. Crickets. The common man is under the impression that Mohammed Ali invented “Rope a Dope”. The common man may have been knocked down as Western “Capitalism” leaned against the ropes, covered up and sporadically lashed out. The outcome will be, just as in the case of Mohammed Ali, nazism and it’s promoter headed for a death from septic shock.I am asking as a states rights populist. When will the preaching against bureaucratically managed Federalism appear in the daily discourse? That “ism”. (surely a rhetorical question) Although many confuse The Jungle Book with The Jungle, some have actually read The Jungle and are familiar with the Muckrackers and the history of the Noble “ism”.
and for the Trump aficionados, The Murder of Qasem Soleimani, should history be written, will be noted as the Supreme Blunder, and the harbinger of the complete demise of western colonialism.

“…they are too incredulous to believe the things I just said happen to be true…”“Only the small secrets need to be protected.
The large ones are kept secret by public incredulity.” ~ Marshall McLuhanThe news automatically becomes the real world for the TV user
and is not a substitute for reality, but is itself an immediate reality.
Marshall McLuhanPlease watch the X vid from Japan starting at minute 8:12 to the conclusion, more than once

of almost everything except his specialty.

perhaps you explain the difference between a group that worships profit and a group that worships profitdid not know the Medici were Jews, learn something every day

tbocParticipantwhat is not discussed leads today’s discussion
surely a rhetorical question – “How have we not beaten these guys yet?”
a rhetorical answer: follow the moneyanother couple of rhetorical questions: How did that dollar get into your pocket? From making physical objects by assembling raw materials?
Shirley, you jest.tbocParticipantcan one be selected to not understand? how might that work?
“An exclusive opportunity reserved for a selected few.” Respond TODAY!as noted before, IQ is a measure of one’s usefulness to empire. Rickards room full of 160’s. SnapOn made a name for itself selling the finest tools.
tbocParticipantbefore Nelson and David Rockefeller and thier New World Order there was very little talk about democracy. Now that The New World Order has become The Rules Based Order democracy is on the lips of, well, almost everyone.
how about a little more Kant for after lunch desert?
Democracy is necessarily despotism, as it establishes
an executive power contrary to the general will;
all being able to decide against one whose opinion may differ,
the will of all is therefore not that of all:
which is contradictory and opposite to liberty.~Immanuel KanttbocParticipantwhat part of Rickards was selected is not obvious? Did i mis-hear the man say he was selected because of his expertise? Did the man painstakingly state his lofty credentials?
Did the man speak only in terms of the past?
Did Bannon, with only a short commercial break, leave a wide berth around the one important question?Did Rickards say that those who selected him did not make use of his “Victory”?
BS, unlike the finest cognac, does not improve with age. The fact that someone besides Bannon and Rickards are footing the bill and paying them to provide answers to questions that are not being asked seems obvious. Mr. Bannon and Mr. Rickards are both advising that everyone look at and cherish the BS they were selected to promulgate. One does not enter into those prestigious halls of academia without an invitation, an invitation borne upon a selection process.
Here are the questions:
What is being gamed today?
Who controls the selection process?Mr. Rickards and Mr. Bannon appear to have profited nicely for being selected AND ignored. Selling second hand information that informs of what is NOT being done.
Those who can make, make
Those who cannot steal, or put things more politely, manage thefttbocParticipantin an attempt to reconcile personally divergent responses to current events took a look in the rear view mirror yesterday in this order:
Marshall McCluhan, Konrad Lorenz, Immanuel Kant, David Hume and Rene’ Descartes. First a moment of levity,“When I hear that a man is religious, I conclude he is a rascal!” ~ David Hume
and then a reminder of why empiricism is so detestable from the same pen:
“Justice is a moral virtue, merely because it has that tendency to the good of mankind,
and indeed is nothing but an artificial invention to that purpose…….Hume”follow this thread of thought and it will lead to an unravelling cuff of Boris Johnson’s trousers. This morning’s highlight of thoughts on obesity is right in line with Hume’s celebration of Caeser’s affinity for fat men.
Lorenz’ view of learning more and more about less to the point of knowing everything about nothing stands solid and intact. Descartes understanding that all paths lead to mathematics remains unassailed. What was looked for was found in the thoughts of Immanuel Kant. The following quote does not bring peace but a sword.“Even if a civil society were to be dissolved by the consent of all its members
(e.g., if a people inhabiting an island decided to separate and disperse throughout the world),
the last murderer remaining in prison would first have to be executed,
so that each has done to him what his deeds deserve and blood guilt does not cling to the people
for not having insisted upon this punishment; for otherwise the people can be regarded
as collaborators in his public violation of justice.” ~ Immanuel Kantshines a light on the death wish

tbocParticipantand now for the Jew haters
the total world population identifying as Jewish is 15.2 million persons.
the combined population of western Europe and the United States is 546 million persons.if 546 million persons are getting their ass whipped by 15.2 million persons, the 546 million deserve a Major Ass Whippin. openly receiving and accepting an ass whippin and crying about it in public is just not a good look. I have an acronymn for this type of person SDWB. (Short Dick White Boy)
and from this vantage point it appears that 561 million persons are in line for a Major Ass Whippin. i will take my share of the ass whipping as the cost of association with my society of SDWBs.
now back to the regularly scheduled programming
tbocParticipantAspnaz until you include the Great Schism and the resulting centuries of brutality in your equations they will be falsifiable. Go inside any Roman Catholic parish today and you will find western culture among the parishoners. Look a little deeper and you will find those who Know the Good Shepherd and are Known by the Good Shepherd. I say this to you as a heretic, excommunicado. My abhorence for the Vatican has nothing at all to do with the Words Writ in Red or the human beings who live under the Easy Yoke and the Light Burden.
Western Culture has not fully entered into adolescence and that is readily apparent to all of the societies within the ancient cultures. The Vatican is a State. The Vatican is and remains the purpose of the Great Schism. The Vatican, donning a Harry Potter’s magic cloak and proceeding under the illusion of truth, allied itself with the Monarchies of Western Europe. Among the dumb you deride are those who still believe in the Enlightenment. Take a moment and look at the dates of the Spanish Inquisition and the terror inflicited on the populace of Southern and Western Europe and then look to the dates of the Enlightenment. Explain how one of the greatest of heresies fully blossomed in the midst of the Terror of the Inquistion. The modern managerial class for the continuance of empire was being created. Look at the palace intriques and the murders and assasinations of clerics in the lead up to and during the Reformation. The enlightened got a Get Out of Jail Free Card and $200.00 as they passed Go. There has never been a free press and history has been written by those who control the press. Those who continue to believe the cockamammy history presented as the true story of Western Europe have to be among the dumbest in history.
Those who cannot do, those who have no concept of the struggle to be humane beings, have always resorted to violence. Throughout human history violence has always failed, locally. The time has come where violence in pursuit of petty gains will fail globally. Those who cannot or will not do, will not be fully human and humane, will be swept aside. The fools, the ignorant, the dumb group are not to be found in the pews inside the Christian churches. The dumbest group are the ones who believe there will never be A Day or An Hour and that the most base of human characteristics will win the day eternally. Empires fall. That is a historically accurate statement that cannot be falsified. The dumbest group are the ones who cannont and WILL not see this current empire is falling and will destroy itself.
Those who cannot see that symbiotic cooperation is the foundation of life on our home planet are willfully blind. Those who continue to follow the shallow thinking of those who might be represented by Machiavelli and Darwin, both products and proponents of empire, will continue on their path to destruction.

tbocParticipantThere were no pro-Israeli conservative warmongers in 1861-1865 and +-620000 human beings lost their life so a handful of industrialists could maintain their grip on the economic engine of the United States.
In the last two years a similar number have been dispatched into the unknown so a small group might maintain a similar position. To paraphrase Joe Tzu “You can’t be a blood thirsty thieving bastard and pro human dignity and value”
“Out damned spot” did not work for the Lady and it wll not work any of the apologists for 500 years of rape and pillage. Ignoble is as ignoble does.
There are 50 non-Jewish citizens in the United States for every Jewish citizen. There is not a “Jewish” problem there is a problem with pleonexia driven human trash, globally. Those who might exclaim “The one who dies with the most toys wins” or “I got mine” are among the human flotsam and jetsam that plaque all life on the third rock from the sun. All of this moral posturing is truly respulsive.

tbocParticipant“That’s how you have to be about the two parties; stop thinking about them as two separate, competing entities and start looking at them as two weapons on the same enemy. Stop staring at one hand and start watching your actual opponent.

tbocParticipanthas anyone seen any statistcs relevant to consumer spending from Black Friday to Christmas? Historically this time frame has been the period of profit for consumer enterprises and the spending reported in the press. This year there doesn’t seem to be any national reporting on spending. The BLS report should be considered in light of end of year consumer spending. Please post any information you may have gleaned concerning holiday spending.
As i walked Buddy through the neighborhood after Christmas the amount of product wrapping at the curb seemed lower than in previous years. The amount of packaging from the delivery of online purchases did not show any notable increase at the curb in the weeks before Christmas. UPS uses small trailers drawn by small ATVs for neighborhood delivery during the holiday season and their traffic also seemed diminished.
tbocParticipanttbocParticipanttbocParticipantmilieu
tbocParticipanti have the feeling there are two texts most citizens of the United States have never read
1. 1984
2. The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of Americait appears from what i read online that those same citizens FEEL it is better to fight among ourselves
“than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
and this same group have apparently never heard of the write in vote, content to have their futures decided for them. I will be blunt, these are not citizens they are tax paying place holders. When one considers the number of these people who watch the alledged pagentry of the British monarchy on television self governance is not even an abstact possibility. One who will not govern themself personally is incapable of bonding themself to their fellow man and governing their community. Wanton hedonists complaining tirelessly about wanton hedonists.
“If everyone is thinking alike, then no one is thinking.” Benjamin Franklin
this same group has allowed the education system of their nation to become a base supplier of proganda within which a small group pimp their children out for social status. Within this mileau the would be citizens place more value on the outcome of a sports contest than the future of their nation, their own children.

tbocParticipantDemocracy is for slaves of the Enlightenment.
tbocParticipanta word from James Madison:
“Democracy is the most vile form of government.”and a few more
” A pure Democracy, by which I mean a Society consisting of a small number of citizens, who assemble and administer the Government in person, can admit of no cure for the mischiefs of faction. A common passion or interest will, in almost every case, be felt by a majority of the whole; a communication and concert result from the form of Government itself; and there is nothing to check the inducements to sacrifice the weaker party, or an obnoxious individual. Hence it is, that such Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security, or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives, as they have been violent in their deaths.
James MadisontbocParticipantbeggars mounted – the outcome is foretold
tbocParticipantDBS if one takes Galbraith’s view that the elite prefer to risk losing everything than compromise a portion of their wealth and apply that to western culture as a whole the trajectory makes more sense. As it is noted that the elite will risk total destruction rather than surrender any part of their priviledge, the population of the west are a group of priviledge and are unwilling to surrender anything. I do not think that there is a substantial difference of intellect among the economic classes in the west. Knowledge of how to rise has become common knowledge. Corruption has a tipping point, we are here.
tbocParticipantSix minutes with Johnny Winter
c’mon you have six minutes to sparetbocParticipantDBS i read a good history of the CIA and Killing Hope at the same time. i have never given myself a break about being the Polyanna i recognized myself to be. At that point in time i had effectively been on the outside for more than twenty five years and had been schooled in the way of Vietnam by a special forces mentor. My mother had declared me the most cynical person she had ever known. The blow was emotional, intellectual, psychological and spiritual.
The truth will set you free right after it kicks your ass!tbocParticipantcould someone please point to the Article or section of The Constitution of the United States of America where a political party or parties are assigned any powers or duties? There is of course a path to demolish attempts at party dominance and force congress to carry out their constitutional duty without regard to party. We could of course have an insurrection carried out by the sitting members of The House and Senate, refusing to accept the results of a federal election, and then rediscover who the Government of the United States truly is. That would be too much like by the people for the people so such a path is totally out of the question.
ooops forgot for a minute it’s football playoff season, as Emily Litella used to say, “Never mind”
just let it all go to hell, and complain about it
i have resolved to stop making any attempt to be nice and go along to get along, thusly a paraphrase for Patrick Henry’s famous line has been created. only to by used in personal conversation and in moments of confrontation.“Fear is the mind killer” which explains perfectly the state of our nation. A herd incapacitated by the fear of non-conformity. Do i hear the theme from the Jefferson’s tv show playing in the background? Movin on Up

tbocParticipantit would be pleasant to find something positive to say about Tucker Carlson, though Kuntsler has single handedly removed that possibility for himself
it seems quite a few really hope the status quo will be maintained
i guess that might be understood in one who has devoted their entire life to that endHave you noticed all of the voices crying civil war have no intention or capacity to fight, yet are prepared to spend another’s life to protect their status? I notice and keep an account. I suspect there will be no picnics on a hill for those above the fray in the coming dissatisfaction.
Justice delayed is justice denied.
Sykes Picot is dead and not a moment too soon.tbocParticipantsometimes my naivete surprises me. I realized the other morning that i had completely misunderstood why Thoreau and Melville were included in the required reading in school. In one of those road to Damascus moments came the realization that i was supposed to ridicule those moral ideas as not being profitable and not allow them to be inculcated into my world view.
Always thought “What are you doing out there” was the proper stance. All of those years feeling revulsion when i thought of Taggert instead of attempting to emulate his persona.
Woody Guthrie on immigration
My father’s own father, he waded that river,
They took all the money he made in his life;
My brothers and sisters come working the fruit trees,
And they rode the truck till they took down and died.Some of us are illegal, and some are not wanted,
Our work contract’s out and we have to move on;
Six hundred miles to that Mexican border,
They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves.We died in your hills, we died in your deserts,
We died in your valleys and died on your plains.
We died ‘neath your trees and we died in your bushes,
Both sides of the river, we died just the same.and Saint Ronnie made sure the illegals could have driver’s licenses. give me a break about illegal immigration being a recent and Democratic situation
