RSSFred Reed and most of his commentors here suffer the same hallucination suffered by all politicians and most journalists: that they see the big picture and can diagnose the entire globe and prescribe the policy cures we all need. Pompous Pompeo is a cartoon of such absurd posturing.
The key to libertarian thinking is to understand that no one sees the big picture and everyone ought to mind their own business and leave everyone else alone – especially their property.
Put simply: “foreign policy” is always and necessarily a gross epistemological scam designed to excuse aggression and stealing. If you focused all your attention on a single country (your own perhaps) for your whole life, you would still not know what was going on, no matter how many large opinions you had formed or data troves you had studied. The human brain was built to take care of the body in which it finds itself and perhaps its young offspring. It is not big enough to know or to take care of all those other bodies.
Government is nothing more than a gang of parasitic scam artists pretending, like Fred, to know way more than they can know about the world. Everyone needs to stop fantasizing about what needs to be done to everyone else and their property and focus instead on living well by their own efforts.

I am unable to understand any of this talk about Jews. It is clear that there are a lot of bad Jews, but equally clear that there are a lot of good Jews. Logically, then, the fact of ‘Jewishness’ is irrelevant to questions of good or bad.
People who seek power over others are bad. Even if it was true that they were mostly Jews (and it is not true), it would be irrelevant, just as it would be irrelevant that they are mostly males (which they are). The same silliness involved in condemning Jews is committed by the feminists condemning males. It is collectivism – the blaming of groups instead of individuals for the evils of the world.
It could be true that most Jews are power-lusters or parasites, but not all are, so it is irrelevant. The great “problem” that needs to be solved is that there are so many power-lusting parasites in the world. They are ALL bad and most of them are not Jews.
This discussion makes no sense to me.
Allow Barbara to elucidate:

I think there is a resurgence of anti-Semitism because at this point in time Europe has not yet learned how to be multicultural. And I think we are going to be part of the throes of that transformation, which must take place. Europe is not going to be the monolithic societies they once were in the last century. Jews are going to be at the centre of that. It’s a huge transformation for Europe to make. They are now going into a multicultural mode and Jews will be resented because of our leading role. But without that leading role and without that transformation, Europe will not survive.
Well Fred,
We know that the voting machines operate on “proprietary” (secret) software and that the politicians who purchased them shortly before the election here in Georgia refuse to allow anyone to examine them or to examine the ballots that were run through them. We know the names of those politicians and we have their written documents refusing access.
We also know, from the published records of the election results over time that Trump lost votes several times – an impossibility when counting votes. In some cases, the amount of votes he suddenly lost was the same as the amount that Biden suddenly gained. Those are official facts, not theories.
Your pattern, Fred is to always find something to ridicule in the majority position, often an entertaining theme. The majority position is often wrong, but not always. This time, your “shtick” is misplaced. You should do some homework to look for the answers you claim “conspiracy theorists” are not looking for.
I do wonder about morons who insist on worrying about a “Judeocracy” in spite of the simple truth that being Jewish is irrelevant to the value of any individual.
Obviously, there is a gang of evil morons who all share a Jewish culture, just as there are evil gangs who are all Italian or Irish or Muslim. It is perfectly reasonable that members of evil gangs will prefer to work with those who share their own culture.
Equally obvious, though, is the fact that the majority in these various cultures are innocent people who are not members of the evil gangs. It is therefore irrational and irrelevant to even mention that a gang of evil anti-freedom morons happen to be Jewish morons. There is no reason to point that out at all. That the evil morons are partial to the government of Israel may help us to anticipate their particular brand of evil, but many innocent Jews share a concern for Israel as well, yet are not evil.
So, I say – about their being Jewish – so what? Why keep up this endless reminder that there are bad Jews as if that is more important than all the bad non-Jews?
That is merely playing Whac-A-Mole...the Deep State needs to be eliminated.Replies: @Howardofski
Like the somewhat fiesty tone, Ilana. Yes, dissident patriots need an independent web server. Any ideas? I’ll donate a few bucks.
Eliminating the Deep State would also be playing Whac-A-Mole. What is not seen is the Deep Problem.
The Deep Problem is that nearly all humans think that government is a good idea being done poorly, when it is actually an evil idea being done thoroughly. Monopoly is ALWAYS the work of government, never the free market, yet most humans believe just the opposite, that government is required to curb monopoly in free markets.
IP law, a metaphorically-based irrationality to justify monopoly, is at the root of much of the power of Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, etc. IP law is a nearly religious icon for Conservatives, Libertarians, even Ayn Rand’s Objectivists, yet it is the main tool of growth for these monstrous tyrannical corporations.
We are a long way from solving our problems because we are a long way from even seeing our problems. They are hard to see because they really are Deep Problems touching the roots of morality and logic. They will not be solved by those unwilling to question the very existence of government. How to govern others is not the question. Whether to govern others is the question and the answer is no.
Yes!!!
they really are Deep Problems touching the roots of morality and logic.
Why not get more to the point, and state:
They will not be solved by those unwilling to question the very existence of government.

“We are all far beyond the point where a non-expert could reasonably conclude anything.”
Wrong. This non-expert long ago concluded that “expertise”, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder and no one can legitimately claim to be an expert, nor know who is an expert. Find me a recognized expert claiming “X” and I will find you another recognized expert claiming “non-X”. Both will have large reputations. The one blessed by government will be accusing the other of spreading “misinformation”.
The belief in experts is nothing more than a faith, and faith is nothing more than the art of believing what you are told to believe.
They are all designated as experts or non-experts by the media, the politicians and their controllers. The media hacks generally have nothing more than a creative writing qualification while the politicians have degrees in splitting hairs. They all have an agenda. They all adopt a post-modern, post-truth philosophy.

No, they will not wake up. They are sitting in their loungers eating sugar and watching big screen TVs. The villains in their movies are often Christians, but never Jews. It is almost as if Jews have some kind of control over what appears on TV. But they are a persecuted minority, so they couldn’t have.
Money was invented by traders. As soon as the parasites called government outlaw cash or mandate a digital currency, traders will invent a new private money to use for illicit trades. Perhaps silver or gold, perhaps something else – they will figure it out.
The joke of government only works on the obedient. The disobedient invent a way around.
“…this bizarre totalitarian-libertarian method…”
That is an extremely malignant use of our language.
It appears that whenever anyone begins their comment with, “So…” we are going to be offered an obese straw man carefully constructed to misrepresent everything the original writer actually wrote.
Big corporations are only allowed to be big by government. Government can easily make them small if they don’t behave. One of the big lies about America is that it has a free trade economy. It does not. America is a fascist country, defined as a “partnership” between business and government – people with money and people with guns. Guess which one dominates.
Why indeed. It is because most whites believe in self-sacrifice and faith. Their dominant religion uses a nailed-up body as its symbol, they claim they are born sinners, and they are deeply ashamed of even the sight of their own bodies, which they have outlawed.
This massive shaming was apparently invented by the Jews, though they may have borrowed it from the Egyptians. The Muslims cover women head to toe.
That race hustlers have picked up on the shame game is not surprising. It has always been a fundamental technique of power politics. You can usually measure the wickedness of power-lusters by how devoted they are to shaming humanity, especially the human body and its pleasures..
In any civilized and forward-looking society, George Bush (and his father) would have been unemployed.
“I’m getting pretty tired of schizo theories about how there is some secret competent elite running America, and this is all part of the plan. It’s not part of the plan. They had a plan, and it is failing everywhere you look. This should be good news for everyone.”
It may be comforting to assume that those who have imprisoned our entire country and who fly about in private planes and are immune from any laws and who have made themselves billionaires in the process….are idiots whose plans we know and whose plans are failing….
However, the reality that they now own nearly everything and enjoy unlimited funding might gives us pause as we declare ourselves to be on to them and their machinations. Perhaps we should consider the possibility that we are the idiots and that is why we are in the mess we are in.
Perhaps instead of crowing about how smart we are, sitting in our prison cells, we should think about how to escape from a very well-run prison.
Yep.
Perhaps we should consider the possibility that we are the idiots and that is why we are in the mess we are in.
There is no escape. We'll get the dystopia planned by TPTBs.

“…given that all of these fraud techniques from 2020 have now been normalized (early voting and ballot drops)…”
Voting machines with proprietary (secret) software are more than worth a mention in this context.
Heading into the warm summer season, America needed something to get us all out in the streets rioting and looting and burning before heading into the fall elections where Dominion machines will decide who will rule us and print the money.
America is now like the Roman Coliseum. It is safest to be high up in the seats and not too near the action, but otherwise it is quite entertaining to view at a safe distance while the morons compete in the art of applied savagery.
“…taken to its logical conclusion…”
If we take things to their logical conclusion, we become atheists and anarchists, so let’s not be logical. Best to have faith and believe in the authorities, no matter what they say or do.
“How is it, then, that we are left hanging desperately on the Supreme Court’s every word?”
Similar to how our once almost-free market is left hanging desperately on the FED’s every word.
It’s the same problem: Government is not a good idea being done poorly. It is an evil idea being done thoroughly. The only purpose government will ever have is to own everything and everyone.
How about “The Dominion Regime”. After all, Dominion is winning all the elections now.
So why did god make women so beautiful? So men would love them.
So why did god make women so stupid? So they would love men.
I would like to see Rand Paul and Tulsi Gabbard in the White House. However, since they make a lot of sense, the news media would quickly sabotage any such attempt, then run two parasitic frauds, claim near the end that they were neck-and-neck so stay tuned to the next commercial, and then celebrate or throw a tantrum depending on what the Dominion machines decide.
Voters are not allowed to count in modern elections. They just get in the way of our steady progress toward a banana republic based on the fundamental moral principles of voting machines and printing presses.
It is well known that whites are shot and killed more often than blacks, which is why I answered how I did.Replies: @Howardofski
Anybody know how many blacks were killed by police during the same month?
Well known? With the media try hard to hide the truth?
“Provoke” is a BS term to shift blame away from evil actors. Any “culture” that is provoked to murder by cartoons is nothing more than a gang of superstitious savages who deserve more cartoons. Claiming the right to kill because you don’t like a picture is insane. Islam is insanity pretending to be philosophy.
Andrew Anglin appears to be nuts. The problem is not a group of people. It is a set of very bad ideas, the worst of which are shared by Jews, Christians, Muslims, atheists, and Anglin himself.
I wonder if he is an old man or if he still has time to grow up.
There are bad people with blue eyes, but we don’t talk about all the bad things blue-eyed people are doing. Confusing bad people with blue-eyed people would be a fundamental error of logic because it would ignore all the innocent blue-eyed people.
Now I’m certain you all understand that, so I have to conclude you are simply dishonest little morons trying to get attention when you talk about some bad people and pretend that the fact that they are Jews or brown-skinned is important.
We all know it isn’t. White Christian bad people far outnumber Jewish or brown-skinned bad people. And good people far outnumber bad people.
So grow up, morons. Do something productive to get attention. Talk about what is bad and ignore the genetics of the bad people because they are irrelevant since there are far more good people who share those same genetics – as you well know, you sadistic, lying, cowardly little morons.
Rhetorically, you are nothing more than very little playground bullies.
In total number, perhaps. In proportion to total population, doubtful. In total nuisance caused, white gentiles are altar kids compared to Jews.
White Christian bad people far outnumber Jewish or brown-skinned bad people. And good people far outnumber bad people.
