Think of it as conversations; a little one sided, true, because they are the things I'd like to talk about but right now I can't think of anyone that I know that I would like to talk about them with. Not important things. Nothing to change the world, or improve life, or add meaning. Just things.
I haven't laughed hard enough to get the aching of the ribs for a while, so this is all very welcome.
In essence, if you've been missing this, hedge funds took advantage of their Government buddies 'Covid' strategy to force shops to close and shorted Gamestop, intent on breaking them and sucking up some free blood. This was noted and addressed.
The swamp creatures aren't even bothering to pretend to wear any kind of mask at this point. so it really isn't about the money, it really is about sending a message in response to their message.
The truth is that people can simply buy and hold a single stock make them burn their own house down.
If they can't play fair - and the elites have collectively proven that they not only will not but are psychologically incapable of it - then maybe taking their toys away is the simplest answer. It isn't that hard. They are not that smart.
Obviously, I'm not advocating that any individual pour all the assets that the self-anointed elites want to take off you anyway into a stock just to break the system the very same parasites collectively feast on.
Agree, approve, accept, capitulate, repeat the approved message or we will make you invisible.
In competition with Twitter? This site cannot be reached however, there is Gab as an alternative, apparently not set up to fail (or perhaps to be a honey pot designed to trap dissenters to the narrative?). Gab currently has infrastructure problems related only to the vast and sudden influx of new users. (I can't imagine why that's happening.) Give them time to catch up to new demand.
Removed from YT but available to those who go looking.
Of course there will be some material on alternative sites that express ideas you don't approve. So what? Rejecting ideas is within the purview of the individual.
As many have pointed out, there are those who took 1984 to be an instruction manual rather than a warning. Unsurprisingly, they are fairly easy to detect by approx half a given population base. Surprisingly, the other half of any given population base seem incapable of grasping that they are backing the bad guys, that they therefore are the bad guys, no matter how obvious it becomes.
The core problems are evident all through the western world, throughout the whole world. One message, one narrative, no dissenting opinion permitted. That there is no dissent permitted is the prime reason opposition builds.
We are a self organizing species by nature, building hierarchical structures from the many up to the few; the few then develop the delusion that we are a species organized from the top down, a point of view appealing to those who want to control other people and insufficiently resisted by those who want to control only themselves. In part, this may account for the cyclical nature of the rise and fall of civilizations.
In general, things go on until the cannot any longer. Then they stop.
It's perfectly normal to panic when you win legitimately, it seems. A handful of days remain of President Trumps first term, yet the 'winners' are desperate to turn a few days into zero days. Now, why would they feel the need to do that?
I offer the following in no particular order.
Sensible of Tony Heller to use YT for teaser vids with the main act elsewhere, but I can link to YT, so here it is, the main event is a simple enough click through.
Of course we should all stop using their platforms, and as they ban people like 'Computing Forever' who now resides on Bitshute, and hundreds, thousand of other content providers for wrongthink of one sort or another, it's perhaps still worth linking. After all, there are still those who don't yet know how controlling the bigtech companies are:
A Letter from the Nye County Chairman
"Let me be clear: Trump will be president for another four years. Biden will not be president. Yes, I know those are shocking words in these crazy days."
"Control of the Internet, which used to be a flexible network designed to automatically route information around blockages, has now fallen into the grasp of a handful of companies, all of them seemingly eager to institute a Red Chinese social credit system. Conservatives and populists have relied for too long on Section 230 to protect us from exactly the kind of hamfisted behavior that Jack Dorsey, Sundar Pichai, Jeff Bezos, and Tim Cook are engaging in right now. We have a very limited amount of time to find and use alternatives like blogs, e-mail lists, Telegram, Signal, and Gab; we must also build alternative financing structures so the wokerati running Mastercard and Visa can’t cut off the flow of funds. People used to accuse Vox Day of being paranoid when he said these things a few years ago. What’s keeping me awake nights is that Vox might not have been paranoid enough."
"Kirk Wiebe is not some fringe conspiracy theorist. He worked as a senior analyst at the nsa from 1975 to 2001 and was awarded the Meritorious Civilian Service Award—the nsa’s second-highest distinction. With his colleagues William Binney and Ed Loomis, Wiebe developed many software programs to find, monitor, and track terrorists worldwide. But he retired from the nsa in 2001, after uncovering a government program to illegally monitor millions of U.S. citizens’ communications. Yet while the media treated Wiebe as a hero when he exposed the Bush administration’s surveillance operations, they lost interest in him when he continued to expose the Obama administration’s unlawful surveillance operations."
And
"Now Wiebe has joined with retired nsa crypto-mathematician William Binney, retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, and retired Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely to expose a “deep state” plot to steal the presidency and hijack America."
That'll do, I think, though I could share links all day long that point to the underlying reality so desperately being banned and obfuscated as we watch. Anyone who wants to know the November election was a massive fraud enacted against a sitting President and, more importantly the people, knows. Of the majority who know, roughly half know and like it, roughly half know and don't.
So why are the 'winners' so obviously panicked?
Could it be as simple as this?
1) The intelligence services, of which there are many, have always investigated everyone remotely connected to politics. The material is classified.
2) President Trump has the absolute authority to declassify anything he chooses to.
That would certainly constitute at the very least a metaphorical nuke if as is proposed by some who should certainly know, that approx 70% of Senators and Representatives are crooked to a degree that would shock everyone and rock the world.
I honestly can't think of anything else that explains five years of non-stop legal and illegal attacks, beginning before the man was even elected.
"The reason these people are not held accountable is there's no way to hold them accountable. Who investigates the investigator? Who prosecutes the prosecutor?" Senator Ron Johnson.
Understanding the problems has not lead to solutions.
Until recently, Tony Heller confined his activity to the AGW climate scam, but he has belatedly grasped that everything is related.
(I'm linking to the YT site, but recommend the click through link for the reasons he states; both are fairly short and worth your time).
Maybe one day we'll be able to go back to minding our own business and being left alone to do so. Of course, the fact that we did that for decades is itself part of the problem.
I watched the tape, but don't feel like you have to. That was cold, deliberated, deliberate and utterly without justification.
RIP Ashli Babbitt
The guy with the gun in his hand... well, there are things we have to trust God to take care of because no one else possibly can.
Of all the manifold related matters, I remind myself that despair is a sin, as Jerry Pournelle used to say. Despair removes the ability to think clearly, I believe he meant.
Speaking of clarity of thought, here's something by someone who seems to have some concerning matters not entirely unrelated. I recommend it be read to the end.
When you run a business you will get audited by the government. If something your company does raises a red flag with the government, they will audit you. If there is an anomaly in your government mandated paperwork you must legally submit, it can trigger an audit. And sometimes, various agencies will just randomly audit you to make sure you are obeying all their regulations.
