“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” – William J. Casey, Director of the CIA from 1981 to 1987

For a change of stylistic pace, this post is in the form of a rant.

To start, I’ve been impressed with the dedication of many Substack authors who continue to highlight the deadliness of the COVID vaccines, the hypocrisy and lies of so-called “public health experts”, and the manipulation of official data since the hysteria ended. There is a regular drumbeat of posts about it; a snapshot covering just a couple of days includes here, here, here and here, although there were many more posted even during this brief time period. The consistency of these posts is a heartening thing; if we can preserve the monumental crime that was perpetrated by our globohomo overlords against the hapless public for future generations then, even if we don’t secure justice in the present moment, it will be worth it.

The puzzling thing is how liberals havn’t wanted to talk about the heart attack jab or COVID for the past year or so. When you bring it up to them in person they will give you a blank stare, be uncomfortable and want to change the topic. Complete radio silence, after obsessing about it like it was the Black Plague from March 2020 until 2022 sometime. Interesting, isn’t it? They havn’t wanted to engage about it, like the past three years never happened. Perhaps it was all just a bad dream and we imagined everything.

A throwaway line when Arnold gets the memory injection in Total Recall gives the film’s ending away, strongly hinting that he was lobotomized and the rest of the film was a fever dream. Sorry if this is a spoiler, the movie is 30+ years old.

As Mark Twain allegedly said, “It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.” These liberals and NPCs have learned nothing from the COVID mass-forced-injection experiment. There has been no introspection or lessons learn. For the past year they just wanted to move on with life.

In effect, because they were unwilling to examine their defective train of thought and why they put such faith in the media and so-called “experts” – despite being wrong to the point of it risking their health and those of their family members – they are sure to fall for whatever the next scam is, whether it is bringing COVID back for another round of hysteria (which globohomo is field testing as you read this; Infowars claims whistleblowers have told them major restrictions will be back by October) or otherwise. It could be literally anything; as long as it is repeated hard enough by the mainstream media and so-called “experts”, they will believe it, seemingly without exception.

Underlying their lack of introspection is a question: why do and did they believe the so-called experts? I was discussing this question in person recently with an NPC liberal, nice guy, and his attempted bleat of a response was with respect to the nature of lay person knowledge. Essentially his argument is: why do online dissidents feel like we know as much as an “expert” when they’ve been credentialed in their speciality and have spent years or decades learning their craft? The world is too complicated for us to know that much, which is why humans have specialized in a very specific, niche field vs. in the past when people were more generalists. There could never be another Aristotle or Plato generalist genius, for example, because there is simply too much information in the world for even a genius to become master of but a tiny portion of humanity’s current level of knowledge (this guy didn’t articulate his argument like this, of course, because NPCs are incapable of offering arguments that have not been mommy-fed to them by the media, but i am trying to steel-man his argument).

The response to the steel-manned NPC argument is that lay people, even though they are likely to have less specific knowledge than experts, have not been institutionally captured. During COVID the few experts that spoke out against it were cancelled — they lost their jobs, they lost their funding, they lost their reputation, they were banned from propagating their message on social media, etc. For experts who have mortgages, or kids to feed, or expenses, who want or need to further their own career, how could they ever speak up amidst the fury of globohomo attacking anyone who did? At best they sympathized with dissidents but remained muzzled and silent, but most of them knew in their gut not even to proceed that far because the cognitive dissonance it could create for them could lead to uncomfortable later decisions. So the vast, vast majority of “experts” would naturally and understandably fall into line.

And even though fraudvirus was an extreme example, these same pressures exist in every field where one becomes an “expert” and rely on not bucking the establishment line or the system to maintain their career. This is why laymen are really the only ones who can afford to speak truth to power, especially anonymous ones on the internet, and especially those comprising the loser clique, even if they may be wrong quite a bit of the time and possess less knowledge than the experts.

I actually like the constant attacks from the right on COVID, which I think has somewhat better odds (still very low) of bearing fruit than attacks on transsexualism. This is because transsexualism is rooted in the egalitarian values based in the core of Western society while the COVID issue is not, and is therefore easier to attack psychologically.

But still, even if the attacks on the COVID vaccines are accurate, it was way less deadly than advertised by the right. Most of these Substack authors highlight how many people died unnecessarily from it, what a tragedy it is, etc., but I see it from the opposite angle: why wasn’t there the promised mass vaccinated die-off so that the independent minded anti-vaxxers would inherit the earth? Very disappointing.

Does anything exist if the media doesn’t cover it?

This raises a deeper question: does anything exist if the media doesn’t cover it? The enormous toxic train spill in East Palestine, Ohio has been completely forgotten about, and it was being compared to Chernobyl with poisoned air, water, and land which could last decades. Dead silence from the media; the media doesn’t cover it for more than a couple days, and only piecemeal, so did it even happen? Has anything come from the right’s focus on the sustained fraudvirus scam? Lord Fauci has tens of millions in his offshore bank accounts or more and permanent taxpayer funded security.

Now the Maui fire with maybe 1,000 dead are being covered by the right in a similar fashion, see here and here, but there are many daily breathless Substack posts about it. How long until this too is forgotten?

Or how about on the flip side, let’s take an example in a totally different category. The song “Rich Men North of Richmond” has become a huge hit, which is supposed to be a Southern attack on the values of Washington D.C. But the whole thing is astroturfed, highlighted by the media and blown up from nothing; the singer has a fake Southern accent in the video and he was recorded saying establishment shibboleths like “diversity is our strength.” Apparently a marketing expert set the whole thing up.

It’s not that the power of the mainstream media is immense – it may be almost absolute and simply sets the parameters of what constitutes reality for most people.

Let’s go through a brief list of items highlighted or downplayed by the media, to their central bank owner master’s benefit:

1. Hurricane Katrina – Highlighted to hurt George W. Bush
2. North Carolina Hurricane Matthew destruction – Downplayed to hurt white people
3. Las Vegas shooting – Downplayed as conservative whites were the victims and to protect Las Vegas tourism
4. Waukesha Christmas parade attack – Same, with Muslim attacker
5. BLM riots – Highlighted at the time to portray Orange Man as weak on crime prevention, then deliberately forgotten
6. Notre Dame cathedral fire – downplayed, caused by a Muslim but never officially announced for political reasons
7. The 737 MAX crashes – downplayed, hurt faith in the airlines too much
8. The 2016 Colbert election special – scrubbed from the internet and downplayed because it made liberals look out-of-touch and foolish
9. Pink slime being reinstated into food – downplayed because globohomo wants you eating mass produced food
10. The 1970s Weatherman Days of Rage – downplayed, leading to terrorists becoming institutionalized as professors within universities
11. The Clinton Foundation filing a $16.8 million loss in 2018 with revenue down 90%+ after losing the 2016 election (is this not powerful circumstantial evidence of pay-for-play?) – downplayed and forgotten about
12. The publicly accessible video of Biden bragging about forcing Ukraine to fire its anti-corruption prosecutor or lose $1 billion dollars of aid – downplayed and forgotten about
13. The four years of Trump’s presidency, where every minor detail was highlighted in a hysterical fashion by the media

Just recently a Syrian Muslim would-be attacker in North Dakota, heavily armed with 1,800 rounds of ammunition, was going to shoot up a street festival. Has anyone heard of this? No, and I only did because a friend mentioned it to me. Zero impact on society. But if globohomo cared they could have easily built it up into something huge and create political change out of it.

I could go on and list another hundred things the media highlights or downplays, but the point is this: the media conducts their highlighting or downplaying, they decide how intensely to push the issue and for how long, then the globohomo-backed politicians act on that media pressure to conduct the goals of the Rothschild & co. central bank owners, and then establishment historians, teachers and professors inscribe these false narratives as facts and brainwash the next generation to believe it wholeheartedly. There is a complete, closed feedback loop from narrative creation and dissemination to political change to social shaping as the demonstration of oligarchical power, with no outside influence. The right has no such loop, nothing even slightly close to it; it can whine and point out the hypocrisy of the left or of globohomo or whatever, but because there is no path for the right toward power or money or putting their perspective into power with it (with no control over the DOJ, FBI, court system, legislature, mainstream media, Federal Reserve, universities, public schools, social media companies, etc), eventually the right gets tired of discussing it and spinning their wheels with no change and, quiet and dispirited, but not having learned the lesson, they move on to toothlessly criticizing the next globohomo narrative. A total loss, toothless and ineffective.

Yes, the built-up rage at white displacement led to Orange Man’s presidency in 2016, which was a mistake on globohomo’s part as they were too lazy to rig the election properly, a lesson they learned and will never let happen again. Globohomo isn’t omnipotent and they occasionally do make mistakes. But Trump accomplished nothing and now he’s likely going to prison, probably for the rest of his life.

Therefore, circling back, even though the right has done an impressive job of keeping arguments about the COVID death jabs alive, it seems like it will inevitably fade into a background issue (more than it has already) out of faltering energies levels due to no ways to translate those ideas into power. I guess if globohomo brings fraudvirus hysteria back for another round it will sustain the oppositional energies for awhile longer.

Now, there is a residue of truth that remains in the dead husk of lost political/societal arguments and can be found by the astute, discerning individual. But it is in the back-alley, through the low status “conspiracy theory”, and again, without any ability to translate that knowledge into power. But how did those conspiracy theories even come into existence, who passed them along? To what extent can *any* truth be ascertained today? For the Maui fires, who is pushing the various conspiracy theories and for what purpose? I don’t trust globohomo even slightly, but keep in mind the concept of cognitive infiltration. This cognitive infiltration strategy was articulated by Cass Sunstein in 2008 in an article titled “Conspiracy Theories” for the Journal of Political Philosophy, where he made a radical proposal: “Our main policy claim here is that government should engage in cognitive infiltration of the groups that produce conspiracy theories.”…they defined “cognitive infiltration” as a program “whereby government agents or their allies (acting either virtually or in real space, and either openly or anonymously) will undermine the crippled epistemology of believers by planting doubts about the theories and stylized facts that circulate within such groups.” Given Sunstein is so influential and we have seen this strategy employed numerous times (for example, with flat earth or aliens or Chinese weather balloons), with the purpose being to sew confusion and distract from other issues, how can we be sure the perspective fed to the right on any issue is indeed accurate? Are you yourself going out and verifying facts, and if so to what extent and how? If not, why do you choose to blindly accept the alternative set of “facts” offered to you?

Conclusion

Does anything happen on a political or cultural level unless the globohomo-owned mainstream media and their kayfabe bought-and-paid politicians say it does? And not just now, but throughout all of modern history where oligarchical-owned media set the narratives of reality (instead of in the past when dictator/kings or religious authorities would, and to a much more rudimentary extent)? I think the answer is no. They set the terms of modern reality almost entirely and we peasants merely react to it.

John Swinton, editor of the New York Sun, had this to say about the profession of journalism in 1883:

“There is no such a thing in America as an independent press, unless it is out in country towns. You are all slaves. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to express an honest opinion. If you expressed it, you would know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid $150 for keeping honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things. If I should allow honest opinions to be printed in one issue of my paper, I would be like Othello before twenty-four hours: my occupation would be gone. The man who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the street hunting for another job. The business of a New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to villify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same — his salary. You know this, and I know it; and what foolery to be toasting an “Independent Press”! We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the string and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”

The media acts as intellectual prostitutes for the Rothschild central bank owners.

The core of the matter is: without both (1) possessing a media apparatus to consistently amplify the right’s messages to the retarded public, and (2) a means by which those messages can be directed into political action (which doesn’t exist for the dissident right), it’s akin to screaming into the wind. It’s nice to figure out the truth for yourself and for other dissidents on the right for its own sake and with the intent of our own spiritual progression, but approaching the understanding of politics with the intent of influencing it is a fool’s errand at this time, and will remain so until such time when a dissident feedback loop of narrative-to-power can be established, if ever.

Ultimately politics is downstream of belief, and only a Nietzschian transvaluation of values away from materialistic egalitarianism in order to change the perspective and worldview of all events and “facts” has a chance of ever resulting in the changes that dissidents want. Retaining the underlying egalitarian values of society, in combination with the lack of any right-wing narrative-politician-cultural power feedback loop, is destined to remain a permanent failure.

We interrupt your regular scheduled programming with a post inspired by the sudden death of Wagner’s Prigozhin and Utkin, blown out of the sky today in a missile strike or bomb attack.

In February 360, Caesar Julian was faced with a terrible decision. He was in Gaul fighting the Germans, and the Emperor, his cousin Constantius II, demanded half of his troops be sent to join him in a faraway war in Persia. And not just half of his troops, but his best troops. And not just his best troops, but troops he had promised would never have to fight outside of their homeland. And there were rumors that Julian would be replaced by one of Constantius’s generals as soon as he sent his loyal troops away. And Constantius had murdered Julian’s half brother in a similar fashion. But on the flip side Julian’s troop numbers were puny, he had very little money, and Constantius had a well-earned reputation for skillfully putting down rebellions.

Julian’s troops gathered outside, rebellion in the air. They proclaimed him Emperor. What was he to do? Accept the crown, and then be overthrown and murdered by Constantius in what were horrendous odds like his half-brother was? Or reject it, and possibly be torn to pieces by the mob of soldiers gathered outside?

Julian waffled, undecided. He slept on it with the troops waiting outside for a decision. As he slept, Julian had the following dream (as told in the wonderful novel “Julian” by Gore Vidal):

I dreamed and, as often happens, I found in dreaming what I must do awake. I was seated in my consular chair, quite alone, when a figure appeared to me, dressed as the guardian spirit of the state, so often depicted in the old Republic. He spoke to me. “I have watched you for a long time, Julian. And for a long time I have wished to raise you even higher than you are now. But each time I have tried, I have been rebuffed. Now I must warn you. If you turn me away again, when so many men’s voices are raised in agreement with me, I shall leave you as you are. But remember this, if I go now, I shall never return.”

Julian awoke in a sweat, and the dream convinced him: he would accept his soldier’s demands, reject Constantius’s orders and, whatever the horrible odds, fight to the bitter end with the self-proclaimed title of Emperor.

Julian unexpectedly won the civil war against his cousin when Constantius suddenly died of a fever, and he became sole Emperor — the last Hellenist Emperor Rome would ever have.

I go into Julian’s full story here if it interests you, but the point of conveying it here is this: in life there comes occasionally, rarely, maybe once in a lifetime, if ever, a moment where a decision has to be made, at least in a historic figure context, but probably for regular people as well: is the person all in, or not?

Cue the wildly overplayed song Lose Yourself, with the lyrics “You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow / This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo”. Eminem is a deranged shitlib, but the lyrics are fitting in this context. Or perhaps see Vivek Ramaswamy’s recent horrendous rendition.

Or the Breaking Bad episodes “Half Measures” and “Full Measures” also comes to mind.

Julian went all-in and he became Emperor from his decision, when he very likely would have been overthrown and murdered if he had shilly-shallayed or rejected the advice of the guardian spirit in his dream. (He was abandoned by the figure from his dream and murdered only a couple of years later, but that’s a different story).

Let’s give some other examples.

Consider Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon, where he suddenly marched on Rome with only a single legion, causing panic in Rome and the oligarchical Senators to flee. Caesar went all-in and he won due to his daring and intestinal fortitude.

Caesar crossing the Rubicon as depicted in the HBO show “Rome”, which in my opinion is the best show of all time.

But then later Caesar showed mercy to the same Senators, enacting only half-measures, and as a result they assassinated him; how the worm turns. Octavian/ Augustus pursued full-measures in revenge, showing no mercy to his enemies at all, and he ruled in stability and prosperity for a lifetime.

Consider Ross Perot in the 1992 U.S. election. He had huge support and could have likely won as a third party candidate; however, he felt forced to drop out after globohomo came up with dirt against him or a family member. He later found his balls and re-entered the race, but the opportunity had passed; he ended up getting only 15% of the vote after the general population considered him to be weak-willed. He had one shot and he missed it.

Or consider the failed 2016 military coup attempt in Turkey; full of half-measures, what a mess and a disaster, to the point many have argued (persuasively, in my opinion) that the whole attempt was set up by Erdogan/Islamic loyalists in the first place, given they had extremely detailed lists of enemies to purge ready to go.

The point of this is when we look at Prigozhin’s aborted march on Moscow, the guy had one opportunity. The ruling elite were caught with their pants down; Wagner was immensely popular, the military did not want to fight them, and they started their march with what looked like aplomb, shooting down a bunch of Russian aircraft with their anti-air missiles. The military stood to the side. Wagner’s beef with the Ministry of Defense under Shoigu, a globohomo puppet, was well known thanks to reporting by Rolo Slavskiy where Prigozhin aired the establishment’s dirty laundry in public. It wasn’t a certainty of victory, but there was a chance there. But what did the former chef of Putin do? He turned around and sued for peace after a day. “Sorry guys, I didn’t mean to cross the Rubicon here! Whoops! My bad!” And apparently Lukashenko, the leader of Belarus, negotiated some sort of deal between Prigozhin and Putin and Prigozhin was let free, wandered around Russia with no arrest, thinking he could then turn his attention back to plunder in Africa while a bunch of Russian patriots like Strelkov and Surovikin and Popov, among others, were arrested. It made the whole thing take on a surreal nature and led some to believe that it was a false-flag operation meant to sniff out patriots within the Russian military. But the pro-globohomo elites (yes, Putin and other oligarchical leaders in Russia are controlled by the Rothschild central bank owners as I have previously documented) were indeed embarrassed at Prigozhin’s aborted march on Moscow; they slyly waited for the right opportunity for revenge, which didn’t take long at all. They took him out along with (apparently) the founder of Wagner Utkin and some (all?) of the top leaders at the same time. Bravo to them for playing their cards so well, a masterful sight to behold.

Now perhaps Putin, having removed any danger from the right-of-center, will move for a humiliating Minsk-style fake “peace” with the West, with war to be resumed in a year or two followed by another humiliating loss. Or perhaps this analysis is wrong; it is so difficult to tell the motivations and strategies of the players in Russia, even if one is a native ala Edward Slavsquat who seemed quite surprised in his post here; and even harder to tell through the layers of media lies. “Because, he thought, if the scanner sees only darkly, the way I myself do, then we are cursed, cursed again and like we have been continually, and we’ll wind up dead this way, knowing very little and getting that little fragment wrong too.” ― Philip K. Dick, A Scanner Darkly…

The point of this is that globohomo plays for keeps. They are utterly ruthless, amoral, and do whatever it takes to retain power, no matter the cost. If you step to them you will be destroyed, and they will do it with no compunctions, in whatever way they decide is your weakest point, and they will feel no moral qualms about it at all. When they strike they will do it suddenly, so the victim has no idea it’s even coming. Consider how poorly prepared the world’s population was to deal with the fraudvirus narrative, which was enacted as revenge against populism for the unwashed masses having the temerity to elect Orange Man and Bolsonaro and vote in favor of Brexit.

This is why I think it is best to try to retain humility despite the daily political vicissitudes; I have been embarrassed more times than I can count offering certainty over a political analysis, especially in my younger days, only to be later proven wrong. Regardless, if the hope of the right is to wrest power from globohomo, it will not be done without an equivalent level of ruthlessness, and the price to pay for that ruthlessness is selling one’s soul to the Demiurge, who controls material reality. These are the incentives within this reality; if you want a different reality, better hope that God comes down somehow and changes the rules.

This may be the first part of a reoccurring series highlighting specific individuals who have displayed true, unquestionable courage standing up to the globohomo behemoth against unrelenting pressures, serving as a bit of a counter to the typical grim perspective pushed on this Substack. These individuals pay a price, often a big price, for their courage, and for standing up anyway they deserve to be applauded. Historical-level figures in this vein like Lee Kuan Yew and Ptyor Stolypin have been covered previously. If there were more people like these men, the world would be a much better place.

Ian Smith

You may or may not heard of Ian Smith; he was the New Jersey gym owner that stood up very early against governmental lockdown orders and later vaccine requirements during the CIA color revolution vote-by-mail-legalization-to-overthrow-Orange Man-fraud otherwise known as “COVID”. I followed his story closely at the time, was inspired by it, and continue to follow his ongoing activities. (He should have a Wikipedia page, but given Wiki is controlled by the FBI and CIA, I suppose he has been de-personed and is not considered a person of note, a very Stalin-esque tactic).

Smith recently came out with a book called “Find Your Hill: Worth Fighting For” which is available on Amazon or the book’s direct website. It offers an autobiography of Ian describing his upbringing, challenges, mistakes, things he learned along the way, along with his entrepreneurial spirit and provides a detailed account of his battle against the globohomo scumbag New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy to keep his gym open. It’s a great book, written in a simple, down to earth, very easy to read manner, and if you want to be inspired by overcoming adversity I highly recommend it.

Smith’s Story

Smith grew up like many young men do today: from a broken home. His father wasn’t in the picture at all, he lived with his mother and his step-father offered little to no guidance on life. Aimless, driftless, he engaged in lots of petty crime as a teenager and ultimately enrolled in college, where his results were mediocre. One day, at 20 years old, waking up from drinking heavily the night before, and without realizing he could still be drunk in the morning, he ran a red light and T-boned another car, killing a young man. He spent five years in prison for this, and experienced deep shame at what had happened. He said forgiveness first from the detective in charge of the case and then from the family members of the dead young man affected him deeply. The detective said as he sat before him sobbing in shame, “I know this does not make sense to you right now, but when I pulled up to the scene, I knew there were two fatalities, yet here you are. You are here for a reason. I do not know why, but that is your job to figure it out. Do not be afraid. You are going to need to find a way to forgive yourself to make sure two lives are not lost in this tragedy. Enough damage has been done. You have a responsibility to be better.” And when Smith was sentenced, a family member of the victim handed him a note that said, “We don’t hate you; we just hate what you did.” Powerful words; such forgiveness isn’t so easily imaginable in a non-Christian context…

After getting out of prison Smith enrolled and graduated from college and had various failed job experiences that left him angry and depressed, and back living with his mother. But he pulled himself up and got back to grinding, and he finally found his niche as a personal trainer, finding that he was able to grow his clients with his strong understanding of social media. He went from working people out around New Jersey (traveling to his clients) in the park with equipment from the back of his car to having his own gym with a long line of clients. That in turn led to him being given an opportunity to buy a failing nutrition store within a failing gym, and then the gym itself. Only nine months after his purchase, COVID hit…

Atilis Gym and COVID

Smith’s gym was shut down during the “two weeks to stop the spread” scam messaging at the start of the panic. After a month with no official reopening in sight, though, he saw that big “essential” business was still open and that the small mom and pop stores, which lived month to month, were going out of business. Enough was enough, he thought, and he reopened. But he didn’t do it quietly: he went on Tucker Carlson and announced he was reopening and was going to publicly defy the Governor’s shutdown order. Here’s the video of his initial appearance from May 2020.

His gym reopened to much interest and fanfare, getting both a huge amount of support as well as lots of hate comments and death threats. Governor Murphy took it as a direct challenge to his globohomo dictatorial rule, and he tried many different ways to shut down the gym – putting pressure on the city to revoke his business license, having him arrested, having his customers arrested, having the city mess with his sewer lines to lead to his toilets backing up, boarding up the door to his gym, fining him tens of thousands of dollars a day (!) trying to breach the veil of his LLC to bankrupt him personally, and having criminal contempt charges filed against him, among other pressure tactics. Here is a photo of Murphy so you can judge the physiognomy of this scumbag:

The appearance on Tucker, followed by additional appearances, was both a good and bad thing: it brought him to national attention and created a huge following for himself (proving how powerful the media is; plenty of other individuals who stood up to government tyranny such as Louis Uridel, Shelley Luther, Greg Anderson, and Danny Presti did not receive the same level of attention) but he became a symbol of the anti-lockdown movement whom the government then decided to destroy. He ultimately wracked up enormous legal bills fighting the government, which had unlimited money, had his bank account funds illegally seized, and quickly racked up $1,000,000+ in fines.

Here are some of his other appearances on Tucker:

Smith was ultra resourceful and never gave up. When the city took away his business license under duress, the gym became a “recreational center” with no charges, only donations. When the government padded up the front door of the gym, he took the front door off the building. When the government made it illegal for him to operate, he brought the entire gym equipment daily outside. Wow!

He credits the huge amount of positive feedback he kept receiving for his continued defiance; if no one had cared, his business would have shut down early and he could have been thrown in prison without much of a second thought. It was the lives that he kept touching as he traveled around the country, giving speeches, inspiring others, highlighting the plight of others, that gave the reinforcement and feedback for his courage to continue to defy scumbag Murphy’s tyranny.

The Impact

According to Smith, p. 206, “The path to change is always a long series of cause and effect. One person’s actions impact the next person’s, which leads to an exponential increase in the number of people involved. What started as a couple hundred people in the gym parking lot turned into an army of supporters. The game ends when enough people are inspired to stand up, meet resistance, and stay standing, until they run out of ways to enforce their tyrannical orders. In America, if we had not hit a critical mass of non-compliance, we would all be living under the same type of COVID policies that the Chinese have submitted to.”

And p. 211: “I traveled frequently during COVID, sometimes three times a month and had to show up at the airport three or four hours early just to be harassed [as he was put on the Secondary Security Screening Selection list for refusing to wear a mask]. I continued to fight with people over masking, being removed from flights even when I had an exemption [from a doctor who was not going along with the COVID hysteria], and more. Many would say, “just wear the mask, you are making a big deal over nothing” but I was unwilling to participate in the nonsense of pretending that masks worked. If there is no resistance to what is clearly wrong, they will continue to do wrong. You might as well make these people work for it, make their lives miserable for enforcing such lunacy. Eventually the enforcers get tired of the nonsense as well, and it starts to fall apart. If everyone complies, we go further down the path of illogical control and tyranny. Was it a pain the ass? Sure. Did it make my life uncomfortable and inconvenient? Sure. Will I do it again if they ever try that again? Absolutely.”

Smith’s point reminds me of an anti-tyranny cartoon I had seen a couple of years ago, which I dug up and which is as follows:

It also reminded me of a Alexander Solzhenitsyn quote from The Gulag Archipelago about the price of inaction, p. 828 of Volume 1:

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? After all, you knew ahead of time that those bluecaps were out at night for no good purpose. And you could be sure ahead of time that you’d be cracking the skull of a cutthroat. Or what about the Black Maria sitting out there on the street with one lonely chauffeur—what if it had been driven off or its tires spiked? The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

If … if … We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more— we had no awareness of the real situation. We spent ourselves in one unrestrained outburst in 1917, and then we hurried to submit. We submitted with pleasure!…We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

Remember that those who want to take away your freedom will never package their nefarious intent honestly or directly; they will always package their message as one of promoting safety, like they did with the scam Department of Homeland Security after 9/11. And a message of safety strongly resonates with the public, especially women. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty norSafety.”

The CIA, Bill Gates, Lord Fauci COVID-fraud tyranny finally ended because, even though 80% of fooled American suckers got the first Death Jab (especially 100-110 liberal Redditor-types; those at the tail ends of the bell curve were much less likely to get it, especially PhDs), only 20% received the Death Jab booster. Because so few fell for the booster, our overlords decided to shift to their next scam. (Still, I’m bitter about it; globohomo got their rigged election, permanent fraudulent vote-by-mail, shut down a tremendous number of small businesses, printed $11+ trillion in 2020-2021 alone ($6 trillion of treasures and mortgage bonds purchased and $5 trillion in CARES Act funds) and gave much of it to their friends and allies which caused massive inflation, and no one has paid at all for it. They’re off to their next scam while Lord Fauci retires with tens of millions of dollars in his offshore bank accounts, permanent private security, and laughing at all the retards he fooled. Sure, globohomo didn’t get their permanent vaccine mandates or having to show vaccine passports everywhere forever – this time – but their strategy was a runaway success regardless).

Where is Smith today?

After the fraudulent COVID scam died down, Smith eventually sold his business to his partner (who he had continued problems with) and ran for Congress, where he received about 40% of the vote in the primary against a globohomo Republican stooge. He was a political neophyte and wasn’t prepared for the nasty games that would be played; he had one drink at dinner and was pulled over and arrested for it and charged with DUI, highlighting his prior felony where he had killed a young man while drunk; after the primary, the DUI charge was dropped. Nasty games. But Smith correctly blamed himself for allowing himself to be put in that situation in the first place.

Now he is an author, entrepreneur, and he is headlining a cool event called the Freemen Forge. Here he is explaining it on Instagram, which sounds like a very cool event for like-minded people to interact, network and train together (regardless of the number of embedded FBI agents who will likely try to sneak in). The website is here if you have interest in looking at it.

The conclusion

Ultimately Ian’s story is a story of empowerment and forgiveness. He made a lot of mistakes in his life, continues to make them, yet he learned to forgive himself (and have others forgive him), and he put his head down and got to work and didn’t give up, and ultimately has had a very positive and encouraging impact on others. He ends his book on a note of optimism and encouragement, p. 221:

“What would happen with a million more people in the gym, eating healthier, showing up at town councils and board meetings, spending and saving their money smarter, opening businesses, planting gardens, spending less time on their phones and more with their families, organizing community events and charity, and showing up during the election process? What if we scaled that million people down to just your town or your city? What would it look like if a thousand or even a hundred people in your community started doing that? What problems could we solve with that type of engaged citizenship?

This country is sick with victimhood, dependency, and apathy and the cure is excellence, autonomy, excitement. it starts with the individual. It starts with you. If you do not know where that starts of what that is, then ask yourself who or what is ‘worth fighting for’ – find your hill, as I call it. That looks like something different for each of us. There is not a how-to manual, and this certainly is not an attempt to write one. This is just the story of a regular guy who did his part to remind us of how powerful we all are…We the people…”

Amen, and God bless you Ian.

Lastly, his story reminds me of the wonderful Rudyard Kipling poem “If”:

If you can keep your head when all about you   

    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,   

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

    But make allowance for their doubting too;   

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

    Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,

Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,

    And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;   

    If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;   

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

    And treat those two impostors just the same;   

If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken

    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

    And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

    And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

    And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

    To serve your turn long after they are gone,   

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

    Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   

    Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

    If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

    With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,   

Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,   

    And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

Now if you were touched by Ian’s story, go buy his damn book and follow him on Instagram here and here!

Continued fromPart 1….

Part 1 covered the unchecked, exploding population growth of Africa, whose rate of growth is not slowing nearly as much as globohomo’s ridiculous scientific modeling indicated. Being unable to feed itself, Africa is at risk of a mass starvation event if there is ever a decrease of foreign aid, especially agricultural aid to the continent, and there is and will continue to be a mass exodus from Africa into Europe, seeking better job opportunities and higher quality of life. As a follow up point, arguably the smartest man in the world, Chris Langan, pointed out recently that globohomo maximized its deadly mRNA COVID vaccinations among white populations as a weapon of war, whose population growth rate is already flat or declining, while leaving Africa untouched. Africa had the lowest COVID vaccination rate of any populated continent on earth:

This section will cover the massive decline of natural resources worldwide to support the consumption patterns of 8 billion people on earth, which is rapidly heading toward 10 billion or more.

The unsustainable consumption of worldwide natural resources

This could be something like a ten part series, doing a deep dive into the rates of use and known reserves for each category of consumption. However, a highlight of a bunch of categories should provide a similar visceral impact. Let’s go through them.

• Energy consumption per country serves as a proxy for general consumption. The more developed nations have much higher consumption rates than less developed, even though the population growth (as discussed in part 1) has been highest in Africa and (previously) Asia.
• Worldwide energy use is mostly based on oil, natural gas, coal, and traditional biofuels. Alternative energy including nuclear, wind, hydropower, solar and other renewables are tiny percentages of the world’s energy use despite all the media hype. This is because they are so inefficient, except for nuclear, which is efficient but scares the public; fourth generation nuclear reactors are much safer than prior generations, and thorium-based nuclear reactors would be even safer and more sustainable.
• World oil and gas production is depleting. Saudi and other countries are hiding their reserve figures as a “state secret”. Coal, oil and gas production are getting harder and more complex as world reserves dwindle – it requires deeper mines, deeper drilling, expensive fracking, and other difficult to master technologies. BP’s CEO stated in 2010 that he expected worldwide oil production to peak in 2020, and according to a study China was expected to peak in coal production in 2020 with the U.S. not far behind. In other words, peak production is now. See here for more.
• Meanwhile, nitrogen fertilizer which powers the Green Revolution and allow half the planet to eat is a direct fossil fuel product processed primarily from natural gas. Modern agriculture is largely reliant on petroleum energy; half the world’s population relies on synthetic nitrogen fertilizer booster agricultural output in order to survive. Synthetic nitrogen fertilizer in turn relies on natural gas inputs. According to Wikipedia, it is estimated that no more than 3.7 billion people could be fed without this single fossil fuel agricultural input. Moreover, the essential mineral nutrient phosphorus is often a limiting factor in crop cultivation, while phosphorus mines are rapidly being depleted worldwide.
• The UN’s FAO warns that 90% of Earth’s topsoil, the health of which is necessary for growing crops, is at risk by 2050:† Worthington et al. (from UK Soil Association Fact Sheet). Journal of Complementary Medicine 7:2161–2163 (2001).
• Overfishing is causing worldwide fish populations to crash:

National Geographic: “How overfishing threatens the world’s oceans—and why it could end in catastrophe”:

• Plastics, which are also derived from oil, are ubiquitous and increasing rapidly, because they are so cheap to manufacture despite how long they take to biodegrade (450-600 years) and how they leech into the food/water supply:Plastics production over timePlastic pollution produced per ton per country. China is by far the biggest contributorOcean Trash: 5.25 Trillion Pieces and Counting. Also see the Great Pacific Garbage Patch

Microplastics have been found in human blood for the first time, with extremely negative health implications, especially to testosterone levels. Eating one fish from U.S. lakes or rivers is likened to drinking month’s worth of contaminated water. And this is all expected to get much worse: Global plastics use is set to triple by 2060.

Plastics are very difficult to recycle despite being ubiquitous:

Environmental advocates maintain that plastics are largely single-use: A 2020 Greenpeace USA survey found that plastics with resin codes #3–7 are virtually impossible to recycle, because of limited facility processing capabilities and insufficient market demand. Lawsuits are currently ongoing against Walmart and Keurig Green Mountain, arguing that those companies have violated Federal Trade Commission guidance by presenting plastic items as recyclable. The corporate giants have defended themselves against the allegations and emphasized their commitment to sustainability. (Walmart said in a statement that the company is “a strong advocate for the environment” and recycling, while Keurig has maintained in court that its labels advise consumers to “check locally” regarding recycling options.)

Think a how much plastics you use when you go to the grocery store. Here’s a representation:

How do you think you and your family’s compares? Pretty much any family in America has similar waste habits.

• The rates of animal extinction are at record highs and accelerating:See here for a list of recently extinct mammals. This isn’t taking into account humanity’s driving of many species to near extinction, such as what happened to the American buffalo, which is an especially disgusting story.
• The industrialized food system is a complete horror show. The animals that aren’t at risk of going extinct are those that humans raise for consumption such as cows, pigs and chickens. 29 billion animals killed for food in the US alone in 2023 so far: here is more information on the numbers. But their lives are horrifically bad in the modern industrialized meat production system which breeds for economic efficiency; short, brutish lives, and in the dark and in pain, yanked from their mother’s embrace either at birth or close to birth. (This is a natural dilemma: our bodies are tuned to meat eating because of hundreds of thousands or millions of years of evolution as hunter gatherers, but we have no connection to the food we eat anymore.)How can one claim this planet is anything but a horror show nightmare based on this? (As a side note, note that the proclaimed worst group on earth in history, the Nazis, wanted to ban this kind of industrialized meat slaughter).
• Deforestation: Over the decade since 2010, the net loss in forests globally was 4.7 million hectares per year. However, deforestation rates were much significantly higher. The UN FAO estimate that 10 million hectares of forest were cut down each year.
• Air quality: Air quality in major cities worldwide, where a disproportionate amount of the world’s population live, have terrible air quality:According to the WHO 92% of the world’s population live in places where air pollution levels exceed healthy safety limits.Let’s also not forget about controversial chemical trails (“chemtrails”), which spray unknown poisons into the air we breathe for dubious reasons (weather modification? To make people sicker? As an experiment?). The media won’t cover it, of course… You can see the below in pretty much any well populated city in America, all you have to do is look up, but of course looking up and believing your own eyes is a “dangerous conspiracy theory that only dumb hicks believe”.
• Water quality: Urban water supplies are highly compromised, with chemicals in water supply such as estrogen, birth control chemicals, fluoride etc. Drinkable water supplies are also being strained due to massively growing populations:

This article by Karen Hunt is a nice primer on who controls the limited resource of drinkable water.

The elite response to the decline of worldwide natural resources

As mentioned at the start of this essay, the elite response to the decline of worldwide natural resources is to attempt to institute neoliberal feudalism, where the consumption rates of almost everyone worldwide, except for the elites, shall be dramatically curtailed. They have to do this, under whatever false branding/ marketing it takes, whether it is “global warming” (as per William M. Briggs) or “climate change” or something else, because the alternative is catastrophe as resources run out with 10+ billion people demanding to be fed and provided a decent quality of life. Bringing online massive numbers of safer fourth generation nuclear reactors worldwide to provide energy could (and should) help with this problem, but would not solve it. Perhaps a much greater focus on thorium nuclear reactors could…

Regardless, these elites don’t want clean, safe, ubiquitous nuclear energy, because that doesn’t create a grift that allows them to separate themselves from the unwashed masses. They are and will continue to institute neoliberal feudalism as their preferred solution via massive inflation, the institution of freedom-killing CBDCs, ubiquitous woke AI, higher taxes and dramatically increased immigration, along with retarded, wildly inefficient “green” solutions such as solar and wind energies. Then they will slowly kill off the excess population, who Klaus Schwab advisor Yuval Harari (a Jewish homosexual atheist) calls “useless eaters”, with poisoned food and water, mRNA death jabs, war and other measures.

These extreme measures would not have been needed if we had an elite worth their salt. A proper elite, an elite based in noblesse oblige instead of noblesse malice, an elite not blinded by an extreme form of secular-but-religious based egalitarianism, would have come up with a plan on the front end when world populations were 20-25% of what they are now instead of the back end with a world population spiraling toward an unsustainable 10+ billion.

Combining a low, homogenous population (likely enforced with maximum number of children by the government, sorry libertarians), an emphasis on rural and farming communities instead of cities, with a local and national focus instead of global, a sustainable society with a high degree of recycling, environmentally conscious, not economic growth dominated, with precautionary principles for letting new chemicals into the environment and food supply, and a focus on clean, sustainable nuclear energy.

Malthus thought that the best option for humanity would be to consciously stay (well) below the Malthusian limiting factor(s) to growth instead of reaching those limits which always greatly expand human misery:

In later editions of his essay, Malthus clarified his view that if society relied on human misery to limit population growth, then sources of misery (e.g., hunger, disease, and war) would inevitably afflict society, as would volatile economic cycles. On the other hand, “preventive checks” to population that limited birthrates, such as later marriages, could ensure a higher standard of living for all, while also increasing economic stability. Regarding possibilities for freeing man from these limits, Malthus argued against a variety of imaginable solutions, such as the notion that agricultural improvements could expand without limit.

Herrnstein and Murray agree with Malthus in the policy recommendations they offered in The Bell Curve:

Discussing a possible future political outcome of an intellectually stratified society, the authors stated that they “fear that a new kind of conservatism is becoming the dominant ideology of the affluent—not in the social tradition of an Edmund Burke or in the economic tradition of an Adam Smith but ‘conservatism’ along Latin American lines, where to be conservative has often meant doing whatever is necessary to preserve the mansions on the hills from the menace of the slums below.”Moreover, they fear that increasing welfare will create a “custodial state” in “a high-tech and more lavish version of the Indian reservation for some substantial minority of the nation’s population.” They also predict increasing totalitarianism: “It is difficult to imagine the United States preserving its heritage of individualism, equal rights before the law, free people running their own lives, once it is accepted that a significant part of the population must be made permanent wards of the states.”

The authors recommended the elimination of welfare policies which they claim encourage poor women to have babies.

Our world elites have made a deal with the Devil. In return for unlimited control they have promised to do whatever it takes, no matter the moral, spiritual, physical or ethical lapses involved. Control above all, “imperium super omnia” is the motto that motivates them.

They are reckless, blind, arrogant and bloodthirsty – a very nasty combination. First they had to crush any attempts of rebellion and inegalitarianism from the masses, which led to the massive unchecked population explosion and the situation we are in today. And that’s why they are scrambling to address it on the back-end, a horrific upcoming process which will result in unimaginable misery for most of the world, instead of being able to do so responsibly and ethically on the front-end.

But here’s the thing about the Devil: he doesn’t keep his word. If our globohomo bloodthirsty elites “succeed” in destroying the world and bringing the masses to ruin, the Devil will ultimately betray his followers and send them along the same path that they previously sent everyone else.

Ultimately, the world is currently barreling toward the Wall-E scenario, where we consume everything and leave behind a dead husk of a planet in a mass worldwide die-off; the Sixth (and last?) Mass Extinction Event (unless we become multi-planetary so we can find and devour resources of other planets). At the very least upcoming increased competition for scarcer resources will lead to dramatically lower quality of living for almost everyone. A horrible and grim future.

Wall-E’s vision of planet earth as a fully consumed desolate wasteland is the likely future for humanity unless collapse or becoming multi-planetary happens first.

Humanity is in the midst of what is, by species-historical standards (with modern humans estimated at 300,000-500,000 years old), unprecedentedly radical and fast social, economic, and genetic changes. These ongoing changes are a result of (1) the neolithic agricultural revolution 10,000 years ago after the last glacial age ended (previously discussed here), (2) the industrial revolution starting in the 18th century, and (3) Norman Borlaug’s 20th century Green Revolution.

The Green Revolution is the least popularly understood one. Borlaug dramatically expanded crop yields via genetic crossbreeding and, combined with the widespread use of nitrogen fertilizers (800% increase between 1961 and 2019), parabolically increased the world’s population. Few people know Borlaug’s name, but you should; he is responsible for billions of additional humans on earth.

As Cochran and Harpending wrote in The 10,000 Year Explosion, “natural selection can proceed quite rapidly, and the past consists of long periods of near-stasis (in populations that were well matched to their environments) interspersed with occasional periods of very rapid change.”

Being in the midst of these changes, it is difficult to detach oneself and try to assess the state of the world from a zoomed-out perspective, to see how unique and unusual the situation we find ourselves to be. The previous post on The 10,000 Year Explosion reviewed the genetic changes that are occurring to humans as they continue to adapt to a sedentary, heavy carbohydrate agricultural lifestyle after millions of years as active hunter gatherers eating high protein diets.

This post covers these species-level changes from another angle: the environmental effects caused by this massive population explosion, and whether and to what extent humanity’s population growth and consumption patterns are long-term sustainable. To the extent they are not, what does that mean for the future?

The meaning of “environmentalism”

To set the proper framing let’s first discuss what the term “environmentalism” means. There are two uses of the term: the traditional meaning and the modern meaning.

The traditional meaning meant creating a sustainable world for future generations with a focus on clean air, clean water, conservation of natural resources, recycling, long-term protection of animals, biodiversity, etc.

The term was politicized by previous generations into a pro vs. con dialectic: profit-obsessed corporations who willfully disregarded the tragedy of the commons (exemplified by “Club for Growth”-tier Republicans such as Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, the Koch Brothers and Mitch McConnell1) versus bleeding-heart hippy conservationists.

The traditional meaning isn’t much in use anymore by the elites, but much of the public is confused by the hidden behind-the-scenes rebranding of the term.

Once the surface layers of feel-good buzzwords and spin are peeled back, the modern meaning is a combination of three ideas. These ideas are as follows:

1. Limiting CO2 emissions in wealthy countries in the name of “climate change” and “global warming”, in order to redistribute western wealth to browner/blacker communities and third world, low income countries to equalize the quality of life between the two. See here, here, here, here, here and here for examples. Also, this post by A Midwestern Doctor is a great primer on this switch-e-roo. Alex Honnold, an inspiration for his fearless mountain climbing, exemplifies the liberal consensus on this shift in a 2020 Instagram post;
2. Providing justification for an extraordinarily intrusive globohomo control grid where you will have no privacy and your consumption patterns will be monitored and greatly limited, subject to the whims and decisions of your overlords (“you will own nothing and you will be happy”), while
3. The consumption patterns of the globohomo elite class remain undisturbed.

In other words, “environmentalism” today means the introduction of neoliberal feudalism. It is all about elite control over the masses; to the extent the term today relates to its traditional understanding, those are all now secondary or tertiary considerations. Globohomo and environmental organizations pay lip service to the traditional definition, but their priorities are much more sinister in actual application.

The skin-suiting of environmentalism is a sad thing. Who doesn’t want to create a better world for future generations? But the modern meaning is inherently politicized given the vast majority of people will have much lower qualities of life under neoliberal feudalism.

With that said, let’s review the greatest problem facing traditional environmental sustainability: unchecked, radical population growth.

An overview of humanity’s parabolic population growth

Let’s start by looking at a chart of the world’s population on a species-historical scale:

The 6 billion listed on the chart for 2,000 AD is now 8 billion as of 2022.

Norman Borlaug’s Green Revolution, sparked by plentiful and cheap energy in the form of oil, natural gas and coal, has resulted in exponential population growth. Production of the world’s major crops has increased by almost 5x in a 60 year period between 1965-2015:

According to The Atlantic, “In the 1870s—one of the most famous decades in the history of scientific and technological development—142 people per 100,000 died of famine globally. Today’s rate of famine deaths is about 99 percent lower than that of the late 1800s, despite the world’s population being roughly five times larger.”

Under Malthusianism population growth is potentially exponential, but the food supply or other resources is linear, therefore population growth eventually reduces living standards to the point of triggering a population decline. This event is called a Malthusian catastrophe:

A Malthusian catastrophe occurs when population growth outpaces agricultural production, causing famine or war, resulting in poverty and depopulation. Such a catastrophe inevitably has the effect of forcing the population to “correct” back to a lower, more easily sustainable level (quite rapidly, due to the potential severity and unpredictable results of the mitigating factors involved, as compared to the relatively slow time scales and well-understood processes governing unchecked growth or growth affected by preventive checks).

The planet has recently experienced the exponential population growth that Thomas Malthus warned about.

According to The 10,000 Year Explosion, “Malthus himself pointed out that factors other than food shortages can also limit population. Any negative factor that intensifies as population density increases can be the limiting factor – starvation and malnutrition are not the only possibilities. The key is which negative factor shows up at the lowest population density. We believe that the nature of the key limiting factor – which is not necessarily the same in all human populations – can have important effects on human evolution…”

We will review the continued growth trends of the world population below, especially centered in Africa, and then analyze what is very likely going to be the key limiting factor for population growth worldwide in the not-so-distant future: the extreme decline in the world’s natural resources, especially the plentiful natural gas necessary to increase yields via synthetic nitrogen fertilizers, the decline in nutrients in topsoil and the decline of biodiversity, all of which are necessary to keep agricultural yields high. This is Neo-Malthusianism in action.

Will hitting up against a potential key limiting factor of declining natural resources result in war, pestilence, famine as Malthus predicts? Would such shocks occur over a longer or shorter timeframe, and how bad could they potentially be? Consider how interconnected the world is, relying on a just-in-time distribution model with long and complicated worldwide supply chains and almost no on-hand reserves in order to boost “efficiency”, which could amplify the effects of systemic shocks.2 Is the world ready to grapple with long-term trends of declining quality of life?

Elon Musk is concerned in the other direction; he wants unlimited population growth. His reasoning is that the world economy is rooted in a model of “forever growth” and social safety nets are based on blatant ponzi schemes that need ever-increasing populations to sustain them. Faltering population growth could result in an economic death spiral. Musk tweeted:

Regardless, there will always be a Malthusian limit to population growth, and we will reach it, whatever it is.

Rates of global population growth and the problem of Africa exceeding projections

The following are projections for global population growth by Scientific American through 2100, which projects worldwide population topping out a little above 10 billion:

Of global population growth, most of it is currently coming from Africa:

African countries with the highest current total fertility rates are as follows:

See the fertility rates per country organized from most to least here. Whites in western countries all have well sub-replacement TFR (replacement is at 2.1).

Per the below chart, Asian population growth was quite rapid since the 1950s but is close to topping out, which will occur around 2050:

Meanwhile, Africa’s population is expected to triple by 2100. The World Economic Forum expects huge numbers of Africans to then emigrate to richer countries in search of better opportunities:

The expected population growth presents tough but obvious policy-making questions for governments on the continent especially given low human capital development. For its part, the United Nations already predicts that larger populations will make it “harder” for African governments to reduce poverty and hunger or boost local access to standard health and education.

Take Nigeria, which will see nearly 300% rise in its population. It ranked 152 (out of 157 countries) on the World Bank’s first ever Human Capital Index and overtook India as the poverty capital of the world in 2018. The failures of successive governments has also resulted in sustained emigration of Nigeria’s middle-class, typically among its best educated citizens, to Europe and North America, often without the intention of returning.

Yet, it’s a trend that will likely become even more pervasive across the continent as population growth results in more pressure on stretched amenities and infrastructure. More Africans, in search of better economic fortunes, standard of living and education, are expected to pursue opportunities for lives and jobs abroad.

As it turns out, these opportunities are increasingly becoming available as countries with aging and shrinking populations, like Japan, are already looking to plug skill and labour force gaps to sustain their economies by reversing strong anti-immigration policy stances.

Bill Gates personally shares significant responsibility for rapidly expanding African population growth via water, agriculture, vaccine and other initiatives, i.e. see here, here, here. On the surface these are kind and noble gestures, meant to elevate a continent out of poverty and disease — but those gestures are only “kind” so long as that population growth will both slow down/stop like other developing regions, and so long as it is sustainable, i.e. not reliant on large-scale foreign aid forever.

If population growth neither slows down/stops nor becomes sustainable, his surface act of kindness will only result in extraordinary misery down the road — “killing with kindness” — literally.

Is Africa’s growth slowing down? Gates is worried about it: “Population growth in Africa is a challenge,” Gates told reporters in a telephone briefing. “The biggest things are the modern tools of contraception,” Gates said. “If you have those things available then people have more control over being able to space their children.”

But Africans don’t want to use contraceptives. According to a 2021 study, in sub-Saharan Africa, about 80% of young women either use a traditional method or do not use any form of contraception at all.

And Africa’s population growth is not slowing nearly as fast as UN forecasts had predicted:

Countries in sub-Saharan Africa are adding people more rapidly than expected, said John Wilmoth, director of the United Nations’ Population Division and a co-author of the paper. The U.N. has been using the new probability model in its most recent projections.

“Fertility levels turn out to be higher today than was expected 10 years ago,” he said. “There’s been a worldwide reduction in fertility, even in sub-Saharan Africa over the last two decades. It’s falling, but slower than expected and more slowly than in other countries in Asia and Latin America.”

Earlier projections “took what happened in other countries, where birth rates came down and applied that across the board,” said Carl Haub, a demographer at the Population Reference Bureau in Washington, D.C. “The big issue is with Africa. It had not gone down very fast.”

So basically it looks like UN, Gates and other elite policies are structured around data projections that are based on the same types of arrogant, faulty assumptions by the “smartest” and “brightest” (utterly politicized) “scientists” that led Al Gore to conclude that the ice caps would be melted by 2013.

What are you going to do, Bill, when African population growth doesn’t slow down enough according to your pie-in-the-sky “models”? What effect will your arrogant megalomania have on the world then? Will you be around to be responsible for the effects of your actions? Is this whole thing just some kind of reckless experiment for you?

Perhaps this wouldn’t be an issue if Africa was self-sustaining. But Africa is utterly reliant on agricultural imports for its survival: it imported $35 billion of food per year in 2020, $55 billion worth in 2022 which is expected to rise to $110 billion by 2025, the cost of which is rapidly rising in a highly inflationary environment.

The result of the Ukraine war on grain exportation to the continent raises the immediate risk of acute food insecurity. Gates is also worried about Africa’s import reliance:

There’s no better example of that than looking at the African continent. Given the cost of labor and the availability of land, Africa should be a net food exporter. But because of low productivity, it’s a net food importer. The urgency of the innovation pipeline comes both from the need to get African productivity up, but also the fact that the closer you are to the equator, the more damaging climate change is for agriculture. And Africa is the last place in the world where you have significant population growth. So it’s a huge challenge.

Some have recently claimed that Gates’s agricultural initiatives in Africa have failed. See here for critiques of Gates Foundation agricultural interventions in Africa.

Failure of Africa’s ability to sustain itself should be viewed in the context of measured African IQs being the lowest in the world:

Gates acknowledges sub-Sahara Africa’s low average IQs, which he states is entirely due to disease and poverty: “The average IQ in sub-Saharan Africa is about 82,” Gates said, “and that’s nothing to do with genetics or race or anything like that — that’s disease and that’s what disease does to you, and that’s why these things are such an extreme poverty trap.”

But IQ is highly heritable, the science of which is overwhelming:

Also see the famous book The Bell Curve, which discusses consistent and sustained IQ differences between population groups and how measurable IQ is the best predictor we have for an individual’s success in the modern world. And see IQ and the Wealth of Nations and its follow up IQ and Global Inequality (you can see how politicized globohomo has made scientific findings based on how transparently biased the Wiki links are).

Gates and the rest of the globohomo elite are basing their policies on blindly religious egalitarianism, tabula rasa “blank slate-ism”, which traces its roots back to Pauline Christianty (regardless of whether its proponents claim to be secular or atheist). Under this perspective all human group IQ differences, to the extent they exist, are due entirely due to poverty, racism and environmental reasons and not genetics, and they have based all of their modeling and policies around this religious belief.

Which brings us to another point: the complete devastation and destruction that African population growth (and the rapid removal of colonialism) has had on the native plants and animals of Africa.

The below video is a two hour famous documentary called Africa Addio. Read the Wiki entry. It’s a really special film; the filmmakers raced around Africa in a gonzo style as colonialism was ending and documented the complete chaos and destruction that the European withdrawal left in its wake, including huge massacres and destruction of wildlife. The filmmakers were almost murdered during filming; you would never see anything like this made today. It shows a side of Africa and the end of colonialism that you will have never seen or heard elsewhere. If you have the time, I give it my highest recommendation (but brace yourself for some extreme horrors):

Let’s sum this section up. The worldwide population is set to expand from 8 billion today (from 2.5 billion in the 1950s) to over 10 billion by 2100 if not higher. Africa’s population, which has the lowest continental IQ in the world, cannot sustain itself and relies on ever-increasing agricultural imports to survive; if those imports ever stop Africa will experience an immediate mass starvation event. The rapid population expansion is resulting in the complete destruction of wildlife in Africa, and putting enormous strains on infrastructure, water supplies, and natural resources in unsustainable ways. Spillover population is likely to emigrate to other countries for better opportunities. Globohomo megalomaniacal lackeys like Bill Gates rely on unscientific, unsound model projections for their actions, which are about as accurate as Al Gore’s proclamation that the ice caps would melt by 2013. The world elites are high on their own supply and lack the intelligence, cognitive honesty or accurate worldview to act as proper stewards for the future generations of the world, given the central bank owners that rule everything are driven by noblesse malice and other elites are blinded by their belief in the egalitarian cult.

Only a transvaluation of values away from egalitarianism has any hope of slowing this process down, if it’s even possible at this point (doubtful).

But Africa isn’t the only problem — the west and China are also using tremendous amounts of natural resources. The UN claimed in 2019 that humanity is gobbling up natural resources at an unsustainable pace. How unsustainable is this, what are our globohomo overlords doing about it, and how effective will their chosen policies be?

This is where we will turn to in Part 2…

1 Kaczynski was biting in his criticism of these types in Industrial Society and Its Future. Paragraph 50: “The conservatives are fools: They whine about the decay of traditional values, yet they enthusiastically support technological progress and economic growth. Apparently it never occurs to them that you can’t make rapid, drastic changes in the technology and the economy of a society without causing rapid changes in all other aspects of the society as well, and that such rapid changes inevitably break down traditional values.”

And Note 13 to Paragraph 66: “Conservatives’ efforts to decrease the amount of government regulation are of little benefit to the average man. For one thing, only a fraction of the regulations can be eliminated because most regulations are necessary. For another thing, most of the deregulation affects business rather than the average individual, so that its main effect is to take power from the government and give it to private corporations. What this means for the average man is that government interference in his life is replaced by interference from big corporations, which may be permitted, for example, to dump more chemicals that get into his water supply and give him cancer. The conservatives are just taking the average man for a sucker, 31 exploiting his resentment of Big Government to promote the power of Big Business.”

2 The fragility of the just-in-time distribution system may be covered in a future post, but basically world trade is so complicated and interconnected that disruptions may have long-lasting, far-reaching and potentially extremely deadly consequences. For example, a repeat of the Carrington Event or an EMP attack could result in a total system collapse and mass starvation. Also per this comment, the U.S. has no strategic transformer reserves. A Federal Energy Regulatory Commission report suggests that if just 9 of 55,000 substations in key locations were destroyed and one transformer manufacturer was disabled, the entire U.S. grid “would be down for at least 18 months, probably longer.” And in 2013, an anonymous attack on a Silicon Valley substation knocked out the facility for 27 days — a PG&E official called it a “dress rehearsal.”

Liberals have an interesting personality quirk: they insist on thinking of themselves as the forever-underdogs, no matter their more-or-less unbroken series of victories since the Protestant Reformation or, really, since Paul’s original transvaluation of values 2,000 years ago.

Their personality quirk seems to be rooted in two things: (1) their dutiful adherence to society’s never-ending push for egalitarianism, where tearing down the unequally successful “evil” is seen as “good”, and (2) the bizarre nature of the liberal mind, which lacks individualized self-esteem and gets it via self-identification with the group-think of liberalism.

Kaczynski covers these aspects of their mind in Industrial Society and its Future:

The two psychological tendencies that underlie modern leftism we call “feelings of inferiority” and “oversocialization”. Feelings of inferiority are characteristic of modern leftism as a whole, while oversocialization is characteristic only of a certain segment of modern leftism; but this segment is highly influential….

Many leftists have an intense identification with the problems of groups that have an image of being weak (women), defeated (American Indians), repellent (homosexuals) or otherwise inferior. The leftists themselves feel that these groups are inferior. They would never admit to themselves that they have such feelings, but it is precisely because they do see these groups as inferior that they identify with their problems. (We do not mean to suggest that women, Indians, etc. ARE inferior; we are only making a point about leftist psychology.)

Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good and successful. They hate America, they hate Western civilization, they hate white males, they hate rationality. The reasons that leftists give for hating the West, etc. clearly do not correspond with their real motives. They SAY they hate the West because it is warlike, imperialistic, sexist, ethnocentric and so forth, but where these same faults appear in socialist countries or in primitive cultures, the leftist finds excuses for them, or at best he GRUDGINGLY admits that they exist; whereas he ENTHUSIASTICALLY points out (and often greatly exaggerates) these faults where they appear in Western civilization. Thus it is clear that these faults are not the leftist’s real motive for hating America and the West. He hates America and the West because they are strong and successful….

Modern leftish philosophers tend to dismiss reason, science, objective reality and to insist that everything is culturally relative. It is true that one can ask serious questions about the foundations of scientific knowledge and about how, if at all, the concept of objective reality can be defined. But it is obvious that modern leftish philosophers are not simply cool-headed logicians systematically analyzing the foundations of knowledge. They are deeply involved emotionally in their attack on truth and reality. They attack these concepts because of their own psychological needs. For one thing, their attack is an outlet for hostility, and, to the extent that it is successful, it satisfies the drive for power. More importantly, the leftist hates science and rationality because they classify certain beliefs as true (i.e., successful, superior) and other beliefs as false (i.e., failed, inferior). The leftist’s feelings of inferiority run so deep that he cannot tolerate any classification of some things as successful or superior and other things as failed or inferior. This also underlies the rejection by many leftists of the concept of mental illness and of the utility of IQ tests. Leftists are antagonistic to genetic explanations of human abilities or behavior because such explanations tend to make some persons appear superior or inferior to others. Leftists prefer to give society the credit or blame for an individual’s ability or lack of it. Thus if a person is “inferior” it is not his fault, but society’s, because he has not been brought up properly.

Kaczynski’s explanations of leftist’s obsession with tearing down anything seen as “strong”, “successful” or “superior” synchs up easily with Paul’s original transvaluation of values, which was aimed at subverting and destroying Roman warrior values which valued greatness, strength, individuality, self-determination, immediacy of purpose, honor, acceptance of hierarchy and nobility:

“There is neither Jew nor Greek; there is neither slave nor free; there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3:28 NKJV), “Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant” (Matthew 20:26-28), and “Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things — and the things that are not — to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before Him” (1^st Corinthians 1:27).

Paraphrasing Thomas Sowell and with his own twist, Brett Andersen (who has a fantastic Substack) argues that the underlying belief structure of liberals, which he sarcastically calls the “vision of the anointed”, is roughly as follows:

1. All humans are basically equal (if given equal circumstances)
2. All humans are basically good (if given good circumstances)
3. All social ills are due to unequal/bad circumstances (given the right circumstances, all people will flourish)
4. It is our job to make circumstances better and more equal
5. Then we will bring about the kingdom of God on earth

These are tabula rasa religious beliefs that they hold against all empirical, scientific evidence to the contrary, even as they self-identify as science-believe rationalists.

Andersen continues, “If only we can enact the right policies, they seem to think, then we will put an end to crime, poverty, and inequality once and for all. As Sowell repeatedly demonstrates, the anointed think that there are solutions to perennial problems. In reality, there are only trade-offs.”

Compare this to his understanding of the vision of the inegalitarian, which Andersen labels as the “tragic” view:

1. Humans are not equal (and any attempt to make them so will be an authoritarian nightmare)
2. Humans are not basically good (pretending otherwise is naive and will lead to bad policy)
3. Social ills may or may not be due to bad policy (some social ills are perennial and the misguided attempt to eradicate them will be worse than the illness)
4. There are no solutions to social problems, only trade-offs (messing with complex systems always has unintended consequences)
5. Utopia is not for this world

Honestly, liberals are being reasonable here. They have fully, if blindly, internalized western society’s core egalitarian values, while you (if you’re reading this) likely have cognitive dissonance toward it – but a cognitive dissonance that for most dissidents and right-leaning individuals is unformed, inarticulated, it lurks in the mind as an uneasiness and a blind instinctive reaction against the latest egalitarian ratchet.1 Until one embraces and accepts that an unacknowledged, unembraced belief in the inequality of all life lies at the heart of one’s unease, a person’s actions, thoughts and words will not properly synch.

It is never enough

One of the core descriptors of the left, though, is that they are never content with their victories against inegalitarianism: they must always push for more of the Great Leveling. Kaczynski reviews this aspect of their thought process which results in never-ending greater, faster egalitarianism:

The leftist of the oversocialized type tries to get off his psychological leash and assert his autonomy by rebelling. But usually he is not strong enough to rebel against the most basic values of society. Generally speaking, the goals of today’s leftists are NOT in conflict with the accepted morality. On the contrary, the left takes an accepted moral principle, adopts it as its own, and then accuses mainstream society of violating that principle. Examples: racial equality, equality of the sexes, helping poor people, peace as opposed to war, nonviolence generally, freedom of expression, kindness to animals. More fundamentally, the duty of the individual to serve society and the duty of society to take care of the individual. All these have been deeply rooted values of our society (or at least of its middle and upper classes for a long time. These values are explicitly or implicitly expressed or presupposed in most of the material presented to us by the mainstream communications media and the educational system. Leftists, especially those of the oversocialized type, usually do not rebel against these principles but justify their hostility to society by claiming (with some degree of truth) that society is not living up to these principles.

Zero HP Lovecraft covers the same ground:

Scott Alexander is a mincing leftist coward who will survey a thousand points of data that clearly indicate a heretical conclusion, and then shrug his shoulders and announce that no one can ever know what the data means, but he still has a way with words, and he called this the fifty Stalins argument,

One wishes to criticize Stalin, but the penalty for doing so is life imprisonment in a camp. The only allowable way then to express dissent is to say:

“Stalin, he is good, but he is not enough. What we need is fifty Stalins!” This is what the progressive does when she accuses woke corporate leaders of being cynical. 

She doesn’t realize she is doing this. It’s all perfectly instinctive, to complain in a way that is safe and meaningless, in a way that, if it were taken seriously, would empower the powerful even more.

And the act of saying it causes her to believe what she is saying. This is how public declarations work, psychologically. When you make a statement publicly, it causes you to adjust your own belief of yourself, to think that the thing you have said is your real belief.

No one is immune to this kind of social pressure from within.

The response by the right feeds into leftist delusions

The right feed into leftist delusions in two ways:

1. The right allows the left to falsely argue that their beliefs are rooted in logic, rationality and science, instead of blind religious beliefs dating back 2,000 years. This is likely because many Americans on the right are religious Christians, and it would be nonsensical from their frame to attack their secular enemies by claiming they retain the ethics and metaphysics of their own religion. This gives the left the moral upper hand in arguments, because appeals to science and rationality beat appeals to God or religion in the modern era.
2. The right allows the left to believe that the left are the underdogs, and that there is an ongoing close and tight race between whether the left or right will win the latest cultural issue. This is fundamentally false: it allows the right to think their strategies are useful and their perspective is truthful, when it is really rooted in self-deception and confusion.2 This in turnallows the left to play their psychological mind-games where they self-identify as weak rebels against powerful authority. Robert Lewis Dabney complained about this disingenuous dynamic in 1897:

What is the truthful position, and the effective one, if you have the misfortune of dealing with a leftist? Well, the proper position is not to engage them at all, as they are either NPC or sociopaths and they won’t change their minds no matter what you say. But if you have to engage them, the truthful position is the correct one: leftists have all the power and have had all the power for at minimum hundreds of years, they are driven by a blind, radical faith in egalitarianism that they are most likely not consciously aware of, and their beliefs are objectively and scientifically false and only bring complete destruction and ruin in their wake. They are close-minded fanatics whose values derive directly from Pauline Christianity whether or not they self-identify as religious, secular or atheist, or whether they wear the cloak of “Trust the Science” politicized, corrupted Scientism.3

This type of response ties power to responsibility. By leftists pretending that they are constantly rebelling against the big bad white western society, they can claim not to be responsible for their horrendous destructive actions, not just to others but to themselves mentally. If the response is that they have all the power, their power is rooted in blind faith, conservatives are powerless and merely meekly protest as their designated punching bag, and they are ruining everything, then the mental games they play to avoid responsibility cannot be applied.

Applying this argument to Star Wars

With all of this in mind, let’s use a popular movie example to demonstrate these principles. I hate to do it because it is such a nerdy, dorky, lame example, but let’s do it anyway because of the outsized effect it has had on society. Can one see why and how the original Star Wars trilogy has become so powerful over the past 50 years? And no, it’s not just about the application of Jung’s archetypes or Campbell’s hero journey, you dork.

The trilogy reinforces everything discussed above: the scrappy rebellion, marshaling its forces to defeat the big bad hierarchical establishment “order” against all odds and defeat and destroy it, thereby saving the universe and ushering in a new egalitarian age for all time!

But note how the trilogy ends: we never see *how* the victorious rebellion uses its power. We are never told what they do with it, which factions win out in this egalitarian utopia and who loses, because the left is fundamentally uncomfortable being in a position of strength and dominance and the use of power. Don’t get me wrong, it loves to revel in the use of power and destroy its enemies, but it is not comfortable with the acknowledgment, either to themselves or to others, that they have such power. If they were powerful they would, under Pauline Christian ethics, be “evil”, and who wants to think of themselves as evil?

The trilogy ends right when the rebels win. Voila! Raise the curtains, bask in the applause!

The prequel trilogy was weak and easily ignored. It had nothing to say about anything, riding on the coattails of the original trilogy and I guess it was kind of a character study of Anakin. But then look what Disney did with the new trilogy:

Instead of addressing thorny issues regarding how the liberal, egalitarian rebels held and used their hard-won power, which would inevitably require trade-off, what do the producers do? They turn the protagonists back into rebels against a new hierarchical establishment order! How sad, weak, cowardly and pathetic is this? But also totally understandable given the nature of leftist thinking: they really, really do not want to think that they have power, because then they are responsible for their actions and they might have to see themselves as “evil”.

But given how much less competent our rulers are versus a generation or two ago, and given how Lucasfilm put the incompetent woke idiot Kathleen Kennedy in control, the entire new trilogy has been butchered and the franchise IP ruined. Funny how that works…

Conclusion

Kaczynski correctly identified the idea that leftists do not want to believe that they have power, that they are always “rebelling” against the establishment for greater egalitarianism, but he misses the core point that they are acting fully in accordance with society’s core values which trace their origins to Paul of Tarsus.

The takeaway is that leftist actions are based in blind belief, not reason or science or rationality, and that they have all of society’s power and have had it for centuries or longer. They should be responsible for their actions and not hide behind false belief that they are the eternal underdog or that there is some constant ongoing tooth-and-nail super close battle between left and right (i.e. The West Wing, or its cynical version where everyone is corrupt, House of Cards, or the mix between the two, Lincoln).

The Star Wars saga exemplifies these principles in clear ways, but it’s repeated in much of mass media. For example, the very successful Handmaid’s Tale follows the same liberal logic: we are weak but together we are strong, fight the hierarchical power in the name of egalitarianism!

On the other hand, while the final season of Game of Thrones was correctly criticized for being rushed and truncated, George R. R. Martin’s decision to turn Girl Power Superhero Daenerys into a villain ruined the series for liberals because it was an attack on their religious beliefs in egalitarianism:

To be fair, it wouldn’t be very cinematic to film the true state of affairs: an all-powerful shitliberalism, bullying its retarded brother “conservatism” via a combination of brutal power politics, devious mindfucks and juiced by 2,000-year-old underlying egalitarian beliefs along with Rothschild ownership of the media and money supply, styling on its retarded brother forever-and-ever while pretending it is merely rebelling against the “all-powerful eternal menace.” I don’t think that message would be so appealing to the sensibilities of a population steeped in such egalitarian values. It might even leave a bitter taste in their mouths that could lead to cognitive dissonance against the established order. That would be bad for the establishment, so it is forbidden.

Lastly, switching gears from media to history, the story we have been told about World War 2 also fits into this paradigm. The official narrative is that the big, bad, inegalitarian, hierarchical Nazis tried to take over the world, and the scrappy Allies banded together and fended off their brutal attack on the world. The official narrative isn’t wrong (all effective narratives have aspects of truth to them, and the Nazis were brutal toward the Eastern European populations that it conquered) so much as it is incomplete in a very important way: industrial output wins wars, and the Allies dramatically outperformed the Axis in every single industrial category, from arms productions to oil production to military personnel to total population to tank and aircraft production, from a 3:1-10:1 ratio across all categories, and they had this critical information before going to war.4 That isn’t so good for the official narrative…

Ultimately, the real story is that the Axis were an ultra-violent rebellion against the emerging managerial, central bank owner controlled globalist egalitarian state, where Hitler attempted a failed transvaluation of society’s core values back to Roman warrior values. This was touched on previously here, but we will delve into this in more detail in an upcoming post…

1 It’s too bad that Kaczynski seems mostly unaware of the ratchet effect and of the origins of egalitarianism; his manifesto does not mention Nietzsche and only mentions Christianity a single time where he downplays its origins: “Identification with victims by people not themselves victims can be seen to some extent in 19th century leftism and early Christianity, but as far as we can make out, symptoms of low self-esteem, etc., were not nearly so evident in these movements, or in any other movements, as they are in modern leftism.”

2 People naturally want to think they are winning and superior; thinking of your “team” as a forever-loser is disheartening and “demoralizing” regardless of its accuracy.

3 Scientism is science by committee, “scientific consensus”, or data modeling. It is false and politicized garbage. Real science equals experiments, controlling for variables as best one can, that are repeatable by independent third parties. No science that relies on data modeling (climate change/global warming or COVID as examples) is real science. The ongoing replication crisis shows that very little of official science is real science.

4 The President of the Reichbank, Hjalmar Schacht, had been deviously providing confidential information regarding all Germany’s economic developments to Montagu Norman, a fellow mason and Governor of the Bank of England. 

Former President Donald Trump currently faces criminal charges in two cases, one in New York district court and one by the federal government in Florida. There are more potential criminal charges pending in Georgia as well as other looming federal charges, both in the document retention case and for January 6.

Meanwhile, according to an April NBC poll (polls should be taken with a grain of salt, because they are used by the establishment to mold and not just reflect public opinion), Republican primary voters overwhelmingly believe these charges are politically motivated Soviet-esque show trials:

And Trump’s lead has substantially grown over Ron “Meatball” DeSantis since April, showing the criminal charges have not harmed him among his base:

A DeSantis PAC official on Twitter Spaces acknowledges this reality, calling Trump the “runaway front-runner” and “We are way behind”, even as establishment Republicans work behind the scenes to undermine the primary process.

These are uncharted waters in America: criminal charges with more pending criminal charges against the front-running candidate for a national party. It is a sign that America has firmly descended into third world status, with all that entails…

“Here be dragons” (Latin: hic sunt dracones) means dangerous or unexplored territories, in imitation of a medieval practice of putting illustrations of dragons, sea monsters and other mythological creatures on uncharted areas of maps where potential dangers were thought to exist.

The charges

Let’s briefly explore each of these cases and then offer an opinion where this is headed, tying it into the overarching neoliberal feudal framework. Keep in mind that the Republican presidential primaries are currently scheduled for between January and June 2024.

1. New York charges over Trump’s hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels:

Trump faces 34 felony counts with a scheduled trial date of March 2024. The charges are based on a “novel legal theory” which is quite weak – “as far from a slam dunk for prosecutors who are used to winning the vast majority of their cases”. Here’s another link; I could post a bunch of these. Prominent liberal legal experts have expressed unease over these charges. Step back and think about that for a second – bringing charges against a former president based on a novel legal theory which is far from a slam dunk? Think about how radical that is…

That being said, the New York City jury pool is heavily biased against Trump, with Biden securing 76% of the 2020 vote, and a jury could easily convict him for the crime of Orange Man Bad. (There is also an unsubstantiated contention that juries in political trials are being screened beyond normal voir dire measures using the NSA search databases to weed out any non-far leftists, which would explain the bizarre results of many recent high-profile politicized trials).

2. Federal charges over Trump’s retention of classified documents post presidency:

Trump faces decades in prison and with a trial date which will also overlap with the Republican primaries. There are also possible additional charges that will be brought, either in the same case or in a different venue.

According to Sundance, the information in the Trump-retained documents at issue pertain to the establishment’s seditious, extreme criminal behavior for spying on the Trump campaign and prominent Republican supporters during Spygate, which is the most massive scandal in modern history, far dwarfing in size and scope anything Nixon allegedly did during Watergate.1 Trumpwanted to keep the documents as leverage against globohomo; he was not able to release them publicly because they were shielded by the FBI/DOJ/CIA under “active investigations” pertaining to “national security matters”, so he held onto them. The FBI raid and subsequent criminal charges, then, serves as a sword-and-shield maneuver: scoop up the documents so Trump can never release them, which would have smeared his enemies as actual criminals and exonerated his campaign and presidency, while prosecuting Trump for defending himself.

Globohomo’s sword-and-shield strategy is visualized by the Roman Testudo formation, moving forward offensively while in a defensive formation:

Andrew Weissman, the arch-criminal behind the doddering front man Robert Mueller during his quite successful Russiagate investigation2 celebrated the charges against Trump and, along with his fellow seditious conspirator Norm Eisen, wrote an internal prosecution memo for current Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco to use on behalf of their conscripted Special Counsel Jack Smith (“Jack Smith” is almost certainly a fake Anglicized name).3

3. Pending criminal charges in Georgia by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis:

According to Newsweek,

“For nearly two years, Willis’ office has been looking into whether Trump committed a crime during his January 2021 phone call with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in which the former president asked him to “find” the 11,780 votes needed to beat Joe Biden in Georgia. The probe has since widened significantly and is also looking into allegations the Trump campaign plotted to send a group of fake electors to falsely claim that Trump had won the state in 2020, as well as claims of intimidation of election workers.”

The Georgia forewoman, a woman named Emily Kohrs, giddily gave an interview with CNN where she came across as a frothing-at-the-mouth pussyhat wearer, and even CNN admitted the interview was “odd”:

4. Pending federal criminal charges for Trump for January 6:

Over 1,000 Trump supporters have been thrown in prison, with more ongoing, over an unarmed, nonviolent protest where the only death was Ashlee Babbitt, a Trump supporter, and where the capitol police and secret FBI agent Ray Epps opened up the gates to allow crowds inside the building. Recently four Proud Boys were convicted of seditious conspiracy for January 6, and there is an ongoing effort to strip Trump lawyer John Eastman of his law license for trying to help Trump contest the election (Rudy Giuliani’s has already been suspended with possible pending criminal charges and there is also an effort to suspend former Justice Department attorney Jeff Clark, who also helped Trump; legitimately insane Lin Wood agreed to forced retirement instead of disbarment).

Trump is under active investigation for his role in 1/6. Sundance argues that the federal entrapment of Trump supporters (with foreknowledge by both Schumer, Pelosi, McConnell and Pence) served multiple roles; one of the primary objectives was for Congress to invoke emergency powers so that congressional and Supreme Court challenges to globohomo’s obvious election fraud would not occur. They did not want to repeat the contentious Supreme Court face-down that occurred in 2000’s Bush vs. Gore.

If they were not able to entrap Trump supporters to enter the capital, globohomo had a backup plan to still invoke those measures: the so-called Capitol pipe bombs. “Under this scenario, the J6 pipe bombs were the insurance policy, in the event the feds couldn’t get the crowd to comply with the FBI provocations. If no one stormed the Capitol, the finding of the two pipe bombs would have then been the emergency needed to stop the process.”  Which explains why the FBI has no interest in the DC pipe bomb suspects.

The paucity of real charges against Trump is really something. They had to come up with a fake Trump/Russia smear and then go after him for hush-payments to Stormy Daniels and a host of these other nonsensical charges; it’s no wonder globohomo hates him so much, because they did not have any blackmail to keep him under their thumb. Under globohomo’s inverted reality structure, having political candidates who have committed massive criminal misdeeds is a good thing, and being clean is a terrible thing, because the former will do whatever they want while the latter has the potential to be a loose cannon. Trump is almost certainly the cleanest president in (at least modern) history.

Analysis

So there are a bunch of active (and very politicized and flimsy) criminal charges against Trump, scheduled to interrupt the Republican primary, and bigger ones upcoming.

How is Trump handling it? He is boisterous in public, claiming it is a massive witch hunt, but behind the scenes it looks like he is scared. He continues to ignore the base that won him 2016 by spending an inordinate amount of time pandering to minorities:

And Trump’s proxy Trump Jr. called early on for an end to the Bud Light boycott (which I do think is stupid and destined to fail; look at the BUD stock price which is doing fine), the Trump campaign attacking DeSantis for texts by Pedro Gonzalez, and Trump appeared “off” and scared in his recent interview with Bret Baier.

So here is the call: the call is that Trump is very likely going to prison. It will happen one way or another, even though all of the charges and potential charges are ridiculous both on their face and in the details, pushed by a malevolent, bloodthirsty regime that stole power in 2020 and is now ratcheting things up behind the scenes in major ways. I’m not sure how this will impact 2024; DeSantis has not been a beneficiary of these show trial charges (and he doesn’t have the physiognomy to benefit from it; he’s a squat little meatball). Only Vivek is gaining a bit. Perhaps globohomo waits to imprison him until after the upcoming rigged 2024 elections. Maybe throwing Trump in prison simply implodes the Republican party and allows Democrats to formally institute one party permanent rule.

I think the 2020 election will be looked back at historically, assuming humanity survives, as the moment of globohomo’s outright, direct seizure of power after decades of operating stealthily behind the scenes. As William M Briggs comments on liberal’s use of power on another issue here:

They have the power and they’re likely to get away with this. Others say that the law is “unconstitutional”, which it might be, but which is also meaningless, because those in power get to decide what this means in practice.

My take is that they are doing this because they understand how power works. Which is like this: (1) Get it, and (2) Use it. The got it, and they’re using it to shut down their opposition.

And as Rolo Slavsky has also commented in the context of Ukraine, most people simply follow the rulers whoever they are, and that is why globohomo puts so much value in their seizure of power:

That’s how authority works; people naturally follow orders from on high. It’s probably genetic even because following the chieftain used to be a viable strategy for survival. For most of history, there wasn’t such a huge disconnect between the ruler and the ruled. Both groups needed each other to a large extent and the captain went down with the ship if things got too bad. The interests of the ruler and ruled aligned more often than they didn’t….

That is why the fight for these positions of authority is so important. If the power of authority wasn’t so overwhelming, these positions wouldn’t be so coveted. Heretics could just go to the people directly, convince them using the logic of their arguments, and the deed would already be done – the people would be convinced to no longer obey the authorities. But this is not what happens. This is not the observable reality that we are dealing with. Hippy-style appeals to the power of the people to organize themselves without hierarchies or appeals to authority fall flat on their face because only a certain percentage of people are capable of thinking this way. Most people are always following the leader. The only real question is: who is the leader? It doesn’t have to be the president of a country or a general, mind you. It could be a cult leader or a celebrity artist or even a boss at the company.

Now, there is a small chance that globohomo uses the charges against Trump to fully skin-suit him (i.e. to turn him into one of their puppets), but he’s been skin-suited for years now, pushing the deadly untested mRNA “vaccines”, letting hordes of criminals out of prison, failing to pardon Assange, letting Kushner run the show, etc. I think globohomo is still furious that Orange Man snuck one by them in 2016; I think they hate that he is and always will remain a symbol for white middle America, which they viciously want to pulverize into dust. I don’t think they care about potential benefits of having a skin-suited “Republican populist” preside over the continued destruction of America, even if that helps de-fang Trump supporters (note that $11 trillion was printed under Trump’s watch during COVID; there is no political solution to America’s structural problems).

As Grant Smith persuasively argues, the left loves to use proxies in order to attack their ultimate targets without revealing the true nature of their attacks, either to themselves (for psychological reasons) or to their enemies (for practical reasons):

A proxy is a convenient substitute facilitating the guilt-free attack on something that would be otherwise forbidden. Where people tend to get lost here is that they try to imagine that all of their enemies are cynical sociopaths or stupid zealots. The reality is that everyone trying to control narratives at the expense of populism is somewhere along a vast continuum. Some understand that they want to reign over lesser humans who don’t deserve freedom and autonomy, others are delusional enough to believe that they need to guide the unwashed masses for their own good. Whether they believe their own bullshit or not, they need to identify and use a proxy when there is something they are trying to attack but can’t allow it look like they are attacking that way. The psychopaths can’t afford to be exposed as serial uncompromising hypocrites, the clueless can’t afford to see themselves as the hypocrites they are. All are unified by class interest.

In this case, globohomo wants to destroy Trump as a proxy for white middle class populism, without suffering the psychological or political consequences of a direct attack. Trump was right when he said “In the end, they’re not coming after me. They’re coming after you — and I’m just standing in their way.”

The Romanov comparison

When the Bolsheviks seized power in 1917, it set off a civil war that ended with the Romanov family being executed in 1918. The Romanov’s served as a Schelling point and a symbol for monarchy and the right; in other words, it was easier for all of the scattered, feuding tribes of the right to unite in support of them. By murdering their entire family in cold blood, the Bolsheviks removed the Schelling point, demoralized their enemies and made picking apart their re-feuding enemies much easier. They then set about wiping out millions of their enemies, who they deemed “kulaks”.

In much the same way, Trump is a Schelling point for right wing populists and those dissatisfied with the system, even though he is a flailing clown. By imprisoning Trump for the rest of his life, or possibly trying to execute him for “treason”, and going after his family and allies, globohomo can then turn their attention to who they really want to destroy and murder: you. (But not necessarily entirely in that order; the bolsheviks killed a lot of Tsarist supporters before killing the Tsar).

Check out this great Revolver article: “Are you ready to be an American kulak?” which further deepens the comparison. And the same ethnic group was dramatically overrepresented in presiding over the bloodshed as today…

The reaction

Globohomo is moving forward with their strategy in their offensive/defensive testudo formation. As they ratchet up charges against Trump (which, again, they are happy with being perceived as flimsy and political; the same reason why they shove Hunter Biden’s crimes in the public’s faces — they want to instigate a reaction), as they keep the southern border open with millions passing through, as they print trillions of dollars and give it to their friends and allies, as they try turning your kids transsexual, they appear more or less comfortable with the chance of provoking a violent reaction so that they have the pretext to crush it.

It’s “heads I win, tails you lose”: don’t react and be destroyed (as the permanent one party state (a strategy perfected in California) gets set in place nationally, then CBDCs are shoved down your throat stripping you of all your freedoms). React in a violent insurrection and be destroyed even faster.

Modern history demonstrates that in order for a violent insurgency to be successful it would need to have either institutional backers or foreign support. Does the right have *any* institutional support in 2023 America? Does it make sense why globohomo purged the military and police forces of dissidents (the only institutions which had any right-wing support) during COVID under the pretext of the untested mRNA vaccines? And it is the same basic motivation why extremely well funded globohomo groups are viciously and baselessly slandering Justice Thomas (again) and Alito, to weaken the Supreme Court if any of globohomo’s extreme criminal activities get placed in front of them?

I’m not sure there will be a violent reaction regardless. 2017 Charlottesville removed the right’s offensive ability to organize; 1/6 removed their defensive ability to organize. It seems like the right is petrified, correctly, of any organization at this point, so I don’t suspect there will be any violent reaction based on anything the establishment does to Orange Man – regardless of America being the most heavily armed country in the world. I’ll likely do a separate post analyzing the possibility and success odds of a middle class uprising at some point.

I don’t have an answer here. If this was a game of chess, western civilization appears to have been checkmated. If there is any hope at all, it is the right soberly grappling with these issues and then coming to terms with and accepting the transvaluation of values away from egalitarianism that must happen before any real resistance is possible — politics is well downstream of society’s core beliefs — as well as a greater understanding of how the Rothschild central bank system works, so people stop confusing the red cape of Current Thing distraction from the matador.

1 A declassified FISA report stated that the FBI ran 3.1 million illegal FISA searches on American citizens in 2017 alone, compared to 7,500 combined searches by the NSA and CIA in the same year.  It later came out that the law firm Perkins Coie had its own NSA search terminal set up in its D.C. offices to spy on domestic opposition; it was placed there to provide the perpetrators protection. In 2023 the DOJ Inspector General revealed that more than 10,000 federal employees have access to the NSA database for surveillance inquiries (which show everything you have ever typed electronically on your computer or used on your phone), more than 3.4 million search queries were ran between 12/1/2020 and 11/30/2021, and approximately 30% were outside the rules and regulations that govern warrantless search, showing the pattern of illegal governmental behavior is extreme and only expanding.

2 Successful because it kept the Obama-era figures from being criminally prosecuted or investigated and it paralyzed the Trump administration; there was no substance to the underlying Russian charges so it was never meant to prosecute Trump.

3 It’s hard to know from the outside how “smart” Eisen and Weissman, and others of their ilk, are. The leaked Strzok/Page text messages suggest these characters are devious and clever, and that they spend the vast majority or all of their “job” strategizing and conspiring how to keep and gain more power, both to establish primary plans as well as develop branch contingencies (or as Strzok/Page called it, “insurance policies”).
