    With attention so heavily focused on the Russia-Ukraine war, the second anniversary of the outbreak of the Covid epidemic in the West passed without much public notice. The geopolitical consequences of the global rupture between America's NATO alliance and Russia may be enormous, perhaps heralding the end of the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve...

    I understand that this site is frequented most by Americans but I think your headline of this article applies to the majority of people in every nation. We're seeing with the Ukraine thing how utterly brainwashed and clueless the masses are. With covid I would still give the masses the benefit of doubt...they freaked out collectively, it was a biological issue hitting close to home. But with Ukraine you can see how utterly brainwashed everyone is. Doesn't matter left or right, American or German....the world is blindfolded.

    I understand that this site is frequented most by Americans but I think your headline of this article applies to the majority of people in every nation.

    That’s a very fair point. Actually, my original title didn’t have “American” in it, but once I learned of Glazyev’s views, I decided it wasn’t fair to include the Russians among the deluded. But then again, I’d assume the populations of all the NATO countries are in the same boat as the Americans, and given American MSM domination, probably most of the rest of the world as well.

    So having “American” in the title is more wrong than right, and I think I’ll exercise my prerogative as the author, and remove it.

    Regarding Ukraine, I've just seen that Orban has won massively in Hungary with a campaign that was nationalist, anti-immigration, pro-traditional family, and while confirming a close personal and economic relationship with Putin and Russia.

    They have also been finding NATO training books in schools in Mariupol... I just posted two other videos to another comment so I can't bother to go look for that one. But look up Dmitry Maslak on Youtube - it was one of his war diaries...

    And this goes back even further than 2014 with NATO advisors. Ukraine went into foreign invasions with NATO people forget. That required inter-operability. They basically had become a NATO country already...

    Replies: @frankie p

    Yes, it has become clear that the US strategy morphed into treating Ukraine as if it were a NATO ally while denying it the formal recognition as such. Watch the Scott Ritter video interviews from Grey Zone, and listen to him describe the inter-operability that you mention. A large Ukranian force could be sent to Germany and seamlessly transition into the NATO military structure there.

    I’m not surprised that they have been finding NATO training books in Mariupol, and everywhere in Ukraine. I would be surprised if at this point in time there were still NATO advisors and trainers in Mariupol.

    @frankie p

    Do you think that the ultimate commanders directing the military operation from the Ukrainian side are NATO officers with the Ukrainians just executing their commands in the field or are Ukrainian commanders directing actions independently on their own?

    , @showmethereal
    @frankie p

    Yes understood. Honestly I was not aware in the past. I only started paying attention to Ukraine after the 2014 coup. Typical playbook that was used though. Of course the MSM will claim Putin is a madman.
    As to who is left in Mariupol - look up the name of that guy I listen. He’s a Russian speaker who works with Chinese state media. He’s the guy in the videos I posted at comment #70. I can’t recall now what video it was but I watched a series of them and in one video in the rubble they found a passport of what appeared to be a mercenary from Mali and they also found a symbol that former US Marines are known to wear. Doesn’t mean they are NATO trainers still there - but very interesting stuff. Other videos show DPR militias searching and targeting Ukraine/Azov military vehicles that were very cleverly disguised in residential buildings. It honestly looks like they are just targeting residential buildings but only after the smoke clears you see where the vehicles and arms were hidden. I feel bad for the peoples whose homes those were but I find it sick that they hide their military wears among residential spaces. Yet the western media calls Ukrainian fighters brave. It boggles the mind. When Muslim insurgents do the same they call them cowards.

    There's scuttlebutt on 4chan that the remainder of Azov in Mariupol has taken their NATO advisors hostage. After a couple of Azov's generals were shot down by the Russians while trying to escape in helicopters, the remaining members of Azov grabbed their NATO advisors and are threatening to kill them if they don't come up with a way for Azov to escape Mariupol. It's the sort of thing I could see Azov doing.

    In a war between very tough guys like Ukraine and Russia, dim-bulb Westerners are getting ground like wheat between a pair of millstones. Westerners are just cannon fodder and hostage fodder.

    Do you actually believe that there are NATO advisors in Mariupol? That sounds rather far-fetched to me. If there are NATO advisors in Mariupol, and the remnants of the Azov Battalion took them hostage and threatened to kill them, I reckon the Russians would say “Go ahead, kill them. If you don’t, we will.” The Russians have made it abundantly clear that ANY western or NATO forces in Ukraine are belligerents who will be killed. Over two weeks ago the Russians delievered missile strikes on defacto NATO bases in Yavoriv and Zhytomyr in western Ukraine. NATO carried out training at Zhytomyr in September 2018 and described Ukraine as a “NATO partner.” Zhytomyr was destroyed with hypersonic missiles on March 18. Yavoriv suffered a similar fate on March 19. It was the primary training and logistics center that NATO and EUCOM used to supply fighters and weapons to Ukraine. A large number of the military and civilian personnel at that base became casualties. This was a loud message of warning to NATO and the US that the Russians will kill NATO and US forces who enter Ukraine.

China should and will come in with offers for infrastructure help that will build rail and sea links to the BRI.

    Replies: @J.Ross, @Dutch Boy, @frankie p, @Anonymous

    First, the food shortages will be global in nature, and Biden’s comment seems to have been twisted by the media to be related more to shortages in the US when it seems that he was referring to the entire world. Second, the food shortages in poor countries are going to get really ugly really fast, and people who have traditionally been poor but food secure are going to start to experience hunger and even starvation. Next, the food shortages in the US are going to have a number of root causes, including production problems, supply chain problems, and shipping problems. They will cause a decrease in the availability of certain categories of food products, not a drying up of all foodstuffs.

    The good news politically is that the food shortages in the US will be experienced in the blue, Democratic Party-run cities, and the red states will not have problems, seeing that nearly all major food production takes place in those states. Of course California is not in this category, but if you think about it, the food production areas of California are MUCH less blue and more red than the other areas, which mean cities and suburban high-tech areas. The food shortages will rightly be blamed on the Democratic Party, though the media and administration will try to blame it all on Vlad Putin. That won’t really fly, because, yes, the people are remarkably stupid, but they’re not that stupid. They can see that the inflation, supply chain disruptions, drug crazy homeless problems, etc. were all up and running well before the Ukraine war. The food shortages will result in election losses for the woke madmen, madwomen, madtransfreaks, madidentitarians who are running the Dems. Good riddance.

    That’s right.

    Remember, friends. Any accusation of antisemitism should never be met with emotion. It should be met with a calm discussion pointing out the fact that antisemitism is reactionary in nature. It is a logical and reasonable RESPONSE to the corrosive effects of the Jews on goy societies. The analogy of the guy who gets kicked out of 100 bars should be mentioned calmly. Are all those bar owners really haters? The fact that there is a difference in viewpoint must be quietly brought up. Something like this: “We disagree on a major issue here. YOU think that we goys (non-Jews) have some kind of genetic proclivity towards hating Jews. I think that we goys REACT to the bad behavior of Jews towards us and respond to this behavior.” The Jews cannot tolerate this kind of calm discussion and will either stomp out to kill the conversation, or totally go beserk.

    Fantastic commentary on the February 4, 2022 Joint Statement of the Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China by Kim Iversen. I didn’t even know this woman before I saw this clip, but she is spitting out realpolitik and logic in a way that is almost nonexistent on US mainstream media. God certainly gifted her with a great brain, and he did an excellent job in covering her bones as well! This is the first time I have seen any western mainstream media actually try to dissect and analyze the content and parts of the Joint Statement, providing details of the actual text. I imagine that the media won’t run it because the response of many traditional, white, populist Americans would be to call the statement logical and reasonable, a blueprint for a multi-polar world. That is exactly what the elites want to avoid. The part where the talking heads on either side of her start to call the statement ridiculous is also enlightening, as they basically have no real talking points, just the usual bs that the media spews. Kim does well sticking to her guns; it’s clear that she admires the moves of China and Russia and supports the multi-polar world, with America putting more focus on the welfare and life of its own population. Great stuff!

  • As it turned our, the putsch leaders followed Nuland’s advice to the letter, installing “Yats” as the new prime minister. But it also filled four cabinet posts out of eleven with rabid anti-Russian crypto-Nazis.

    It’s certainly true that important elements of the Ukrainian government have been more or less explicit neo-Nazis, naturally embarrassing our very supportive mainstream media, which normally disfavors Nazis. So when Putin or others have regularly raised this issue, the media (including this morning’s NYT) has often ridiculed the accusations by pointing out that the current Ukrainian leader is Jewish, as was the previous one. Since Jews and Nazis obviously don’t get along, the charges must be absurd.

    This completely disingenuous argument only works because much of the true history of the World War II era is so little known. The undeniable reality is that throughout the 1930s, the Zionists were quasi-allies of Nazi Germany, and even after WWII began, a rightwing Zionist faction led by a future Prime Minister of Israel attempted to enlist in the Axis military alliance. Indeed, Nazi Germany played an absolutely central role in the creation of the State of Israel.

    Rather than the past 'being so little known,' I'd say it's more of a matter of current interests trumping past history. If it's in people's interests NOW to work together, they won't fret too much about what happened eighty years ago.

    It's not ignorance, it's cynicism.

    The IAEA is known to be very friendly with Iran, verging on co-conspirator levels of complicity. Khamenei’s violation was so extreme, obvious, and undisguisable even the IAEA could not orchestrate a cover up.

    Khamenei’s intentional assault on Obama’s legacy has alienated many Democrats who supported, or at least tolerated, the original JCPOA.
    ___

    On top of that, Khamenei is making demands that are obviously irrational. Even far left advocates of a JCPOA restart, such as The Guardian, see the folly: (2)

    A second issue surrounds the guarantees Iran is seeking that the US will not repeat Trump’s withdrawal from the deal in May 2018. The US cannot offer a legally binding treaty since the Senate would never agree to one. Price said: “There is no such thing as a guarantee in diplomacy and international affairs. We can speak for this administration, but this administration has been very clear that we are prepared to return to full compliance with the JCPOA [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action] and to stay in full compliance with the JCPOA as long as Iran does the same.”

    A UN security council resolution might be a bare minimum of comfort for Iran, but is hardly binding on the parties. Tehran wants binding commitments that if the US quits the deal, the EU will do more to defy secondary US sanctions by injecting real cash into the abortive trading mechanism Instex set up by the EU to bypass US sanctions.

    The only tool in the U.S. Constitution that can bind a subsequent administration is a treaty. Given the state of U.S. internal politics + Democrats offended by Khamenei’s betrayal of Barack Hussein, the current White House occupant cannot obtain Senate 2/3 vote for ratification to lock in a new or amended treaty. The concept of “legally binding” is simply not available. Even if the U.S. negotiating team says “Yes” the U.S. Senate will openly rebuke Biden with a *bipartisan* “No”.

    Trying to obtain binding commitment from an EU teetering on the brink of internal conflagration is even more absurd. Europe cannot even guarantee that the EU will exist in 12 months.
    ___

    The futile negotiations are headed toward inevitable failure. One can imagine Shakespeare describing the show as:

    “Talks among idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”

    What's really needed in the case of Israel is some agreement with the UFO aliens that shut down the US missiles decades ago (this is an actual theory reported by the US military) to instead blow up the Israeli nukes in their silos.

    If the UFO aliens can shut down minuteman missiles one right after the other, then they should be able to detonate the Israeli weapons systems. The world would rejoice even considering the radiation fallout.

    Like most everything Obama did, JCPOA was, ab initio, all wrong. On more than one occasion Obama has declared our Constitution "just an [worthless] old piece of parchment."

    As with Obamacare, everything about the JCPOA was a destructive set of disingenuous work-arounds.

    This author, because of his resume, offers us a glaring tell in the form of his childish retelling of Trump's actions and planation thereof. I just don't get how so many like this author spend a life building a reputation only to diminish it in service of resentment toward Trump and blind adulation toward Obama.

    In any event, rather than reinvent the wheel, again, I will merely remind of Trump's observation that "we're the suckers" in foreign relations. You will note that Falk doesn't even attempt to justify Obama/Biden on Iran in terms of the US national interest.

    The rot is so advanced that what passes for establishment foreign policy argument is shouting like this over which foreign power is more deserving of gifts from the US. The nadir of this long in the making disfunction came during Obama's presidency -- let's just let those other powers hash it out for themselves.

    I suggest that everyone confused, including this author, hit the books on what is called a rapprochement. There are even recent pertinent examples in Nixon's 'Opening to China' and Vietnam following our losing the war.

    I don't begrudge Iran stubbornness on the question of national honor. But it should have known that nothing enduring would eventuate in negotiating with Obama, who openly made it clear his objective was national humiliation and failure for the American Project and its citizenry.

    Really, the Islamophobic Gatestone Institute?

    https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/gatestone-institute/


    "Overall, we rate the Gatestone Institute Questionable based on extreme right wing bias, promotion of propaganda and conspiracies, poor sourcing, a lack of transparency and the publication of misleading or false information regarding Muslims."
     
    "Poor sourcing" is an understatement; primarily quoting Nutty Yahoo and The Jewish Press is bootstrapping worthy of Ned Price (the evidence for my allegation IS my allegation (self-evident evidence!). Are you an Iranian agent?) Netanyahu, well after the US had already reneged on its agreement, cites secret chambers with traces of uranium. What are the odds of that within a legit nuclear energy development program?

    Even one of its own sources contradicts Gatestone's claims (just pepper your article with myriad links that unpaid readers won't bother to fact-check):

    https://www.armscontrol.org/act/2018-11/news/israel-claims-secret-nuclear-site-iran


    U.S. intelligence officials also disputed Netanyahu’s description of the facility and said his comments were misleading. One intelligence official quoted by Reuters on Sept. 27 said that the facility has been known to the U.S. intelligence community for some time and is full of documents, not nuclear equipment. The officials said that “so far as anyone knows, there is nothing in it that would allow Iran to break out” of the nuclear deal any faster. Iranian officials immediately denounced Netanyahu’s accusation as a farce, and Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif said on Sept. 30 that Netanyahu is “desperately seeking to find a pretext to create hype” about Iran’s nuclear program.
    This is the second time Netanyahu has publicly revealed what he describes as secret information tied to Iran’s nuclear weapons program. In February 2018, Israel stole archival material from a facility in Iran that appears to document activities related to the country’s nuclear weapons development and shared the information with several states and the IAEA.

    "...Those traces were, however, of uranium, the diplomats said - the same element Iran is enriching and one of only two fissile elements with which one can make the core of a nuclear bomb. One diplomat said the uranium was not highly enriched, meaning it was not purified to a level anywhere close to that needed for weapons.
    "There are lots of possible explanations," that diplomat said. But since Iran has not yet given any to the IAEA it is hard to verify the particles' origin, and it is also not clear whether the traces are remnants of material or activities that predate the landmark 2015 deal or more recent, diplomats say.
     

    The Guardian article is correct. Iran is unlikely to get a legally binding treaty thru the US Knesset. But that wouldn't matter anyway. The US doesn't honor oral assurances, agreements, international laws, UN resolutions, or treaties. As Russia states, the US is not "agreement capable". Now that is self-evident.

Sounds like the Rachel Maddow audience. They also have an astrophysicist who was in the space program for nine years, on the faculty of one of the UC schools for some time afterward. AFAICT, she was on the roster of authors of about 25 refereed research papers over the period running from 1977 to 2002, the lead author of four of them. Maybe there are other papers you can discover with more granular databases. That's more than enough for one lifetime. The thing is, her discarded husband (along with thousands of others) was the lead author on more papers, and he won't be on the currency.

    Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

    -Theodore Dalrymple

    I will add that actresses are correctly considered to be a type of whore, as all ancients agreed. I will further add that I got algorithmically locked for saying so on twitter. Actresses are a race, naturally, so calling them whores is racist.
    Probably shouldn’t be so loose if they don’t want me to call them whores, though.

    The Republic of China (Taiwan) maintains that it is the legitimate government of all China. The People`s Republic of China maintains that it is the legitimate government of all China. Since both governments are claiming the same territory, how can it be an annexation? The PRC`s position on Taiwan is no different today than it was when it replaced the Republic of China at the UN. The only thing that has changed is US meddling.

    Let’s not forget the US and their official formal position on China/Taiwan:

    When the United States moved to recognize the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and de-recognize the Republic of China (ROC) in 1979, the United States stated that the government of the People’s Republic of China was “the sole legal Government of China.” Sole, meaning the PRC was and is the only China, with no consideration of the ROC as a separate sovereign entity.

    The United States did not, however, give in to Chinese demands that it recognize Chinese sovereignty over Taiwan (which is the name preferred by the United States since it opted to de-recognize the ROC). Instead, Washington acknowledged the Chinese position that Taiwan was part of China.

    Realist is playing out in real time the behavior of Jews described in Mein Kampf by Hitler. He asks you questions about how to solve the Jewish problem of usury and collecting rents on society as well as the great web of collateral problems this initial problem begets, such as the need to destroy the dominant culture in society (to protect the Jews, of course), control of media, academia, corporations, debauched social programs prioritizing and celebrating criminal and twisted minorities such as blacks and LGBT freaks. You answer rationally and patiently, explaining some early steps, such as the establishment of state banks like North Dakota’s and pursuing a strategy to organize the referendum states; you mention the international conflict among powerful states like China, Russia, and Iran, which are fighting tooth and nail against the financial capitalist behemoth that the usurers have raised. You mention support for policies like debt forgiveness.

    Realist takes action: He posts a LOL on your comment. He refuses to engage in the ideas that you have posted. He may even agree with them, though in this case he hasn’t even commented on them.

    Later on the same comment thread, he then acts as if the exchange never took place, and he continues with the exact same question that you just answered: “What is your solution to the problem you are so concerned with?”

    It reminds me of CS Lewis from “That Hideous Strength”.

    And Hitler gradually came to hate them.

    I've personally debated demoralized people. Their positions cannot stand scrutiny, and when you corner them, their faces screw up and they shake their head no, like some sort of child.

    If they were children they would probably stamp their feet.

    My comments are actually aimed at rational people like yourself, and others who are on a journey to understanding. I use the defectives as a foil.

    There are many types of defective humans on the planet: Psychopaths (who are born), Sociopaths (who are made), Demoralized (Cool-Aide drinkers); and, Money Sickness (cannot have enough money).

    There are also the social climber types as explained by Thorstein Vleben:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Theory_of_the_Leisure_Class

    I've noticed that Lolbertarians , and those preaching excessive liberalism, are a mixture of the above defectives.

    Excessive individualism and blaming the victim is a type of sociopathy, since humans live in a society, and are not atomized individuals.

    Our (((friends))) create ideology that has all of the pathologies above, or they exploit individuals who are already defective and drawn to their ideology.

    Any sort of suggestion that defectives be brain scanned, or "limited" to certain professions, as the National Socialists did to their defectives, is met with horror.

    Hitler had his own back-stabbers, many of whom were the Junker Class, the former "Leisure Class" who did not have merit. National Socialism was merit based.

    The jealous and sociopathic former "aristocrats" wanted their easy life of usury, rents and leisure.

    No doubt they secretly operated just as the Jews do.

    Neil Young also "wrote" the atrocious "Lotta Love" for the no-talent Nicollete Larson. Yeah, that PoS must have taken him all of ten minutes to knock out. Or, I could have it all wrong; perhaps "serious artiste" Mr. Young anguished over this pop masterpiece for days? At any rate it sold a lot of vinyl and made Neil a "lotta dough" in royalties which no doubt disappeared up Neil's nose about as quickly as Ms. Larson's "career" evaporated. I was actually surprised to learn in recent years that Young had written it and figured he'd penned it as a favor to a struggling fellow performer and nothing more, but then I discovered that he'd actually taken enough personal pride in it to have recorded it himself. Well, it does have that super rebellious line "...lotta love...to change the way things are..."..!

The story goes that while they were recording American Stars and Bars, she found a tape on the floor of his car and popped it in. She hears “Lotta Love” and said that it was a great song. Neil said, “You want it. It’s yours.” He certainly didn’t write it for Nicolette Larson.

    Soral’s political claim is that the System/Zionists are making Zemmour rise in order to foster gentile-Muslim conflict and break France through civil war. This doesn’t strike me as credible.

    In the end, Zemmour will hardly fare better than Trump. All politicians are just the puppets of the PTB. Dieudonne and Soral are two of my most admired Frenchmen; their scepticism with respect to Zemmour could very well be motivated by the persecution that they both suffered at the hands of CRIF. Napoleon gathered the Sanhedrin to resolve the Jewish question in France and failed. I doubt that Zemmour’s Jewishness will be much of an asset at this impossible endeavour. Like everywhere in the West under Zionist domination, there will be two standards for freedom of speech: one for the Jews who can express anything they want and another for the goys, be they Soral, Dieudonne, E.

    The FN ➔ RN rebranding has not served the party well. Becoming softer gained no friends in the hostile media conglomerates and opened political space for a less squishy candidate. (1)

    Three months before France's presidential vote, Jerome Riviere made a blunt calculation: Marine Le Pen, long the leader of the traditional far-right, had lost her anti-establishment edge and veered too close to the mainstream to win the election.

    He defected and rallied behind the campaign of Eric Zemmour, the writer-turned-presidential challenger whose nationalist agenda echoes the one-time aspiration of former U.S. President Donald Trump to "Make America Great Again". Riviere, who was Le Pen's top lawmaker in the European Parliament before he jumped ship earlier this month, said Le Pen had become too soft on immigration and compromised the party's tough eurosceptic stance with her tack towards the mainstream.

    "Eric Zemmour says things as they are. It's black or white, he doesn't use shades of grey to describe reality," Riviere, now vice president of Zemmour's Reconquete (Reconquest) party, told Reuters. His defection illustrates how Le Pen's strategy to make her party more acceptable to traditional centre-right voters is alienating core supporters and has left her out-flanked further to the right by Zemmour's burst into the political arena.

    Meanwhile, conservative candidate Valerie Pecresse's own talk on immigration, identity and security has toughened at a time political discourse in France drifts to the right. The result is that Le Pen, 53, is being squeezed from both sides. Le Pen, Zemmour and Pecresse are all vying to win a second round runoff spot in April's elections, with President Emmanuel Macron currently leading opinion polls and expected to take the other runoff place.
     
    Zemmour's breakthrough is rather surprising. One helpful factor. He cannot targeted by the usual media cheap shots. No one would believe accusations of White Nationalism or Neo-Nazi group membership.

    The real questions are:
    --A-- Can the Populists - Le Pen, Zemmour and Pecresse - remain civil with each other?
    --B-- Will their backers set aside differences and unify for the run off?

    Le Pen's biggest problem is B. After her failed courtship with the French Left, how can any return to formerly held positions be seen as sincere? Trust, once lost, cannot readily be regained. One has to believe that many voters will stay home rather than risk being betrayed by Le Pen.

    The real hope seems to be Zemmour or Pecresse obtaining the Populist run off slot. They would be able to attract voters and work with RN legislators. Either would be better than Macron.

    PEACE 😇

    Spotify didn't exist in 2002, just so you get my point.

    As to your other remark about "not being about Joe Rogan" that's misleading. It was Spotify's hosting of the Rogan podcast (paid for dearly by Spotify) that is the "beef." Young, the former "rebel hippie" is now just another dumb Woke COVID fear monger, bullying a vendor of music streams and podcasts.

    Young objects to having his precious music being sold along side of a streamed very popular podcaster who has a different opinion. So rather dim bulb Young is just another would be fascist style bully (or more contemporary, Red Guard style commie bully.)

    When you demand that others "shut up" and disappear, that is worse than simply being in disagreement. That is Woke fascism.

    Of course senile Young, the would be Canadian virtue signaler, is merely shooting himself in the foot. "Don't sell my product in the same online store as Joe Rogan!"

    Young was in a hugely popular band, CSN&Y, and had a very successful solo career simultaneously. He'd previously been in Buffalo Springfield, so CSN&Y was not his first rodeo. He was a smart guy and I think he tended to deal with the less larcenous music executives, such as Ahmet Ertegun. Plus, he's not the type of personality you could easily bully into bad deals. So, a larger than normal chunk of the huge revenue generated by Woodstock Era rock stars wound up in Young's pocket than was was common due to the rapaciousness of music industry suits.

    Right on, Steve! I don’t know where these guys come from, saying that Neil Young didn’t make much money. Harvest was released in early 1972, and the original album sold 15,000,000 copies. To date, including compilations, singles, downloads, and streaming, the album is up to 23,000,000 in total sales. You mention Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, and they were wildly successful in the very period that these guys say Neil didn’t make any money; Deja Vu, released in March, 1970, sold nearly 15 million copies as an original album, and since then has broken sales of 24,000,000 copies. The money doesn’t stop pouring in when the sales continue. Neil Young also toured prolifically through the years, and some of those tours were stadium tours. I remember Rust Never Sleeps in 1979 or 1980. This was a huge stadium tour, yielded a film and an album, and earned huge money. Neil Young accumulated a big pile of money over the years, but he also developed very expensive habits (the train collection, the land upkeep, not to mention the full-time staff taking care of his son, who has a severe disability).

    Neil Young released 43 studio albums, as well as contributing to multiple bands.

  • @Daniel H
    Young bought that ranch around 1970 or so. He had had a few decent selling albums by that time, and decent airplay for a few songs but can such bring in THAT much money to afford a huge ranch just 40 miles from San Francisco, in the uplands of Silicon Valley, or was rural northern California land unusually cheap at that time?

    Artists notoriously get ripped off on their first record deal. If Young's records sold, say, about 400K units by 1970 I can imagine him earning a few ten cents for each record sold. It's not that much money. And touring could leave you broke. Jimmy Page broke up the Yardbirds in 1968 partly due to the fact that after a very successful American tour they all OWED money. In 1976 after touring for 18 months the Allman Brothers each took home a payday of 20K.

    Trying to wrap my head about how much a successful and well managed rock and roller could earn at that time. Grateful Dead out of necessity bunking together, living off 300/week, some performers driven to suicide by desperation despite selling millions of recofds (Badfinger). My guess is that Young took in about 50K per year 69-70. I base this on the fact that when Brian Jones parted with the Stones the previous year they offered him a settlement of 20K Sterling for the indefinite future, and the Stones had to be a much more lucrative outfit than Neil Young, so I imagine.

    Part of the reason CS&N's management pitched bringing Neil on board was because he would stand up to Stephen Stills, who was driving the band, management, the producer and the record company crazy at the time.

    I will challenge you on your assertion that Neil only worked with mediocrities. His backup band on the Harvest album, which produced his biggest hit Heart of Gold, the Stray Gators was actually very good. His use of Crazy Horse was more about his attempts at creating the most obnoxious rock music possible, something he excelled at.

    I think it is worth remembering, too, that the big name rock starts of the second half of the 1960s and early 1970s were, in the popular imagination, something like the Silicon Valley instant whiz-kid millionaires of thirty years later. People marveled that talented young guys (mostly guys, back then) could become so rich, so quickly, off their talent. Singers of an earlier generation, through the fifties, didn't make that kind of money, because, for the most part, they didn't write their own songs. The big money was in being a successful singer-songwriter, and that started becoming the norm, around 1965.

    Worth remembering, too, how low asset prices were circa 1970, relative to today, for the kinds of luxury assets the rich have always chased. When I started thinking of applying to graduate business school in 1979, you could still buy a nice, new, high-rise two bedroom apartment in Manhattan's Upper East Side for about $80,000, no more than three or four years of a starting salary for an MBA fresh out of business school. The wealth creation in the Reagan era 1980s erased that window of affordability.

    I can forgive Neil Young a lot, who is of old North American Anglo-French settler stock (his mother was a member of Daughters of the American Revolution), and ornery and idiosyncratic, in his own way, just as Joe Rogen is.

    Here's Neil Young in 1971 talking about his newly acquired ranch, and singing a song.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=An2a1_Do_fc

  • Do you remember the lyrics of the verse about possessions when he sang “Imagine” after 9/11?
    It was a fleeting glimpse of honesty from Neil Young, one of my favorite singer/songwriters when I was young. “Imagine no possessions, I wonder if I can.”

    I have no time for Neil Young anymore. I read his autobiography. He is deranged, trying to hold on to his sinking wealth and finding surprise by the fact that he has to tone down his wildly expensive lifestyle and sell some “possessions” that he wonders if he can imagine living without. He carried on smoking weed for too many years and it seriously affected his brain. He was told by doctors to give it up and now is supremely proud that he was able to do so…at the age of 68 or something.

    This most recent kerfuffle that Steve so terribly misrepresents as being a beef between Neil Young and Joe Rogan is the last straw. Steve, this is a beef between Neil Young and Spotify. The fact that I cannot find the name Spotify anywhere in your article reflects badly on you as a writer and analyst. As to Neil, who the f*** does he think that he is? Has he ever watched Joe Rogan? Is he aware that Rogan has hosted doctors, scientists, researchers, etc. from both sides of the divide on the vaccines? Rogan is all about the right to free and open scientific discourse. Neil Young is all about woke fascism these days, and those views cancel him for me personally. You see, cancellation is okay when it is done by an individual. I can never condone people being cancelled broadly, by media, big tech, the establishment, etc. The only thing I can condone is your right to NEVER give people a cent of your money again. That is the way I feel about Neil Young. I admit that I probably learned more Neil Young songs than any other artist besides the Beatles. I still remember them all, though I can’t remember the songs I wrote a month or two ago, but that’s old age. If I want to hear Cinnamon Girl, a song I still love, I will listen to it for free. I would never see Neil Young live again, buy any of his music, or buy any of his books.

    Watch the Canadian Covid Care Alliance video for a logical analysis of this issue and the right to free and open scientific discourse.

    Of course they have a reason. But "rational racism" is still racism. Picture that you are a black professional person. You would never mug a cab driver. But you still can't get a cab, solely due to your race. That's the very definition of racism - you are being judged solely by your race and not "the content of your character".

    Cab drivers today in NYC are mostly S. Asian but it wouldn't make any difference - the Ethiopian cab drivers in DC won't pick up young black males either.

    You are still missing the point - whether racism is rational or irrational, whether it is committed by immigrants or whites, it still exists and it is not only pointless but self-defeating to pretend that it doesn't exist. Every black person in America (and not just the deluded) would tell you that it exists and give you examples from their life - being followed around by store security, etc.

    Given that it exists, the real question is what is the SOLUTION to racism? Blacks need to understand that even if racism is morally wrong, it is still a rational response to the bad behavior of certain segments of the black population. That if blacks are performing less well in school, that black students are the ones that need to up their own game (if this is even genetically possible) and that it's not just a question of white people pouring more money into black schools or of spotting them extra points for their lower performance. Accepting that racism exists does not mean that the "cures" that have been adopted are the correct ones nor does it mean that the "cure" must come solely from other races - if blacks don't want to be subject to stereotypical treatment, then they need to work on having their brothers stop behaving in a stereotypical way. The onus cannot be 100% on others. Blacks have to acknowledge that they have agency and are not merely victims.

    BTW, the Supreme Court today decided to take a new affirmative action case. Given the composition of the court, I predict that affirmative action is going to lose this time. Of course the universities will still practice it anyway, in a back door sort of way, but it's going to have to be on the down low and they won't be able to admit anymore that they are doing it. The people at Harvard probably saw this coming and that's part of the reason they are getting rid of the SATs - the less objective data they have, the less they can be accused of discriminating against people with objectively better credentials. If you make the whole admission process completely subjective, no one can touch your subjective judgments. Of course this doesn't work if the discriminated against are black (see disparate impact), but it may for other races.

    In Jewish culture, there is something called a"schande far di goyim" - a disgrace in front of the non-Jews, someone who makes Jews look bad (e.g. Bernie Madoff). Needless to say, doing so does not gain you popularity in the Jewish community.

    AFAIK, there is no equivalent concept among blacks. No matter what depraved things a black person does, he is not shunned by other blacks.

    The other thing to keep in mind is that Jewish bad behavior doesn't usually consist of cold blooded robbery and murder:

    Still, as a general proposition the merits of the particular ideas being promoted are ultimately what matters most, not the self-interested motives of the group(s) promoting them. Whether an idea is good or bad or right or wrong is independent of the motives or interests of its purveyors. From my own experience, I can say that Jewish parents as a group valued and promoted education in the public schools I attended. Even if they did so solely to help MOT’s advance and prosper, their support of education benefitted Goys who attended those same schools and was salutary.

    You are a polemicist of great skill (I say that in the positive sense) and surpass in that regard every other commenter on this site. You amaze with the myriad of fresh angles you can approach a subject and with the sheer rhetorical force of your commentary.

    But ascertaining motives of individuals, let alone groups, is a tricky enterprise. It’s a lot easier to judge an idea on its merits or a factual assertion on its empirical truth.

    Also, the focus on groups and their motives tends to bring out a tribal counter-reaction that is extreme or nutty. You’ve encountered it yourself on this site.

    Your point about Jews having had a positive effect on public education is so far off the mark as to be laughable. I know that you will argue that in YOUR public school, Jewish parents fought for a better education for all, but the effects of the organized community as a whole on education in the US have been nothing short of CATASTROPHIC for goys, starting with the choke hold Jews have had on teachers unions and the subsequent horrible results and finishing with the university admissions situation documented so thoroughly and accurately by our host Ron Unz.

    Professor Higger states his aim in the first paragraph of his Preface:

    "For my main problem is to reconstruct an ideal social life on earth as pictured by the rabbis of old."

    He adds, later:

    "An ideal society among the family of nations, as visualized by the prophets, although not realized as yet, will ultimately be achieved. Nations will come, nations will go. Dogmatic Christianity has come, dogmatic Christianity will be gone. 'Isms' have created nations, 'isms' will destroy nations. Capitalism has brought happiness and woes to mankind; Communism may bring its paradise and hells to mankind. Doctrines have shaped the destinies of peoples, doctrines may bring destruction to peoples. But the millennium will come only when the nations of the earth direct their efforts toward the visions of the prophets, and make function the teachings of Amos, Isaiah and Micah."

    I agree strongly that deplatforming is the new censorship (Jared Taylor and Colin Flaherty were among its victims). Banning it in my view should have been the top priority of the Trump administration when the GOP controlled all three branches of government. Enact a statute that extends to users of social media the same protections of free speech that the courts give to citizens via-a-vis the government. I very much doubt, though, that the chances of passing such legislation and having it upheld by the Supreme Court would have been enhanced by framing the issue as one of restraining abuses of Jewish power, even if that is an accurate frame. Pragmatism in fighting authoritarianism is not a bad thing.

How does that additional knowledge, much of it controversial and inherently difficult to quantify, help diminish the influence of bad ideas?

    Very interesting article. I'm surprised, however, that the writer left out some significant information.

    For example, as I write in my book, Samuel Landman, secretary of the World Zionist Organization, wrote in a 1936 article in World Jewry that a secret “gentleman’s agreement” had been made in 1916 between the British government and Zionist leaders:


    “After an understanding had been arrived at between Sir Mark Sykes and [Zionists] Weizmann and Sokolow, it was resolved to send a secret message to Justice Brandeis that the British Cabinet would help the Jews to gain Palestine in return for active Jewish sympathy and for support in the USA for the Allied cause, so as to bringabout a radical pro-Ally tendency in the United States.”

    Landman wrote that once the British had agreed to help the Zionists, this information was communicated to the press, which he reported rapidly began to favor the U.S. joining the war on the side of Britain.

    Landman claimed that Zionists had fulfilled their side of the contract and that it was “Jewish help that brought U.S.A. into the war on the side of the Allies,” thus causing the defeat of Germany XE "Germany" . He went on to state that this had “rankled” in Germany ever since and “contributed in no small measure to the prominence which anti-Semitism occupies in the Nazi programme.”

    Yeah, I read Krakauer, but I am not sure if I "get" the thing about mountain climbing and supplementary oxygen.

    I have a hunch that the climbers (with the exception of Mr. Messner) use oxygen, but they don't use enough oxygen. I don't know if Krakauer fully explains this, but there are accounts of feeling really good and full of energy near the summit of Everest and then finding you have the oxygen flow turned up too high that you may not be able to make it back?

    There are high-tech oxygen systems used in aircraft and spacecraft (and in diving) that recycle the breathing gas instead of using it up on a once through, breathe in-breath out basis? They use lithium hydroxide to purify the breathing gas and remove the CO2?

    I am aware that such apparatus, especially diving "rebreathers" are not risk free. If the gas concentrations get out of spec, a diver can pass out and die without knowing what happened to him -- similar accidents happen with farmers entering silos.

    That said, there are other ways of supplying oxygen besides breathing it out of a compressed gas bottle -- liquid oxygen, oxygen concentrators (these are used by everyone from F35 pilots to the old people in those "Medicare pays for it" commercials?

    Is the use-oxygen-but-not-enough-oxygen the result of by modern standards the primitive oxygen systems used by climbers? Are these higher tech solutions too expensive? Too hazardous? Too heavy? Or would it make the climb too easy and not give the mountain a sporting chance of killing you?

    Your hunch about climbers is incorrect. Ed Viesturs, an American, has climber the 14 peaks over 8,000 meters, all without oxygen. Many climbers who have developed their abilities without supplemental oxygen take the challenge. Climbers who use oxygen and take their masks off near the summit report that they immediately lose all energy and capacity to continue. This is because they are conditioned to the bottled oxygen, and its sudden absence leaves them unable to continue.

    Viesturs on climbing without oxygen: “Your thought processes are slower. Your motivation is depressed. I mean, just to go and put your boots on takes 20 minutes of thinking, and then another half an hour of doing, and then you’re like exhausted”.

    Mario Dibona, a guide from the Dolomites, on climbing Everest without oxygen: “After 7,000 meters (23,000 feet), you have difficulty breathing. You have to concentrate on inhaling. The worst problem is the difficulty sleeping. The night comes and you can’t sleep. You gasp for air. You wake up and can’t inhale. On Everest, at the top, when you’re standing still, you’re okay. But when you start to walk you have to inhale and inhale over again.”

    I think it was Viesturs who stated his pace at 8000 meters is 15 breaths per step. When I was on Rainier I was taking 4 or 5 breaths per step near the summit, but I’m an east coast sea level boy.

    IIRC, Ed Viesturs has a VO2 max of approximately 70. I believe that’s one of the keys to his success. His VO2 max is on par with nationally competitive endurance athletes and pretty exceptional. Probably puts him, conservatively, in the 99.8%. Also, VO2 max is heritable. The percentage of humans that have the natural, genetic ability (training aside) to climb 8,000 meter peaks without oxygen is likely pretty small and certainly a small minority of fit young males.

    Most elite alpinists have vertical ascent rates on non-technical hikes/ climbs that suggest very high VO2 max numbers. (For example, in cycling you can calculate weight and rate of climb and get a pretty accurate estimate of a cyclists wattage output and VO2 max).

    Replies: @frankie p

    Steve,

    I would say that all of the top 100 climbers in the world have climbed Everest. We should keep in mind that these climbers are more willing to attempt alternative routes and use scheduling that will avoid the two short windows that most of the “tourist climb groups” use. The SOP for climbing Everest is that at the beginning of the season, Sherpas will climb up and fix ropes that ALL of the tourists will use. The mountain guiding companies will have to pay the Sherpas who fixed the ropes according to the number of people who climb and use the ropes. This of course leads to the photos we have all seen of massive traffic jams of people waiting in line when they encounter a particularly difficult place where it takes more time to get up. The top climbers in the world have the ability to assault these mountains WITHOUT ANY FIXED ROPES. They climb in a team with “man ropes”, which they can tie to each other and belay any climber that slips and falls. This gives them more freedom to attempt alternate routes or at least get away from the fixed lines. For his 1980 solo climb of Everest, Messner chose the northeast ridge to the summit, where he crossed above the North Col in the North Face to the Norton Couloir and became the first man to climb through this steep gorge to the summit. Messner decided spontaneously during the ascent to use this route to bypass the exposed northeast ridge.

    This is the kind of freedom these pros have. They can read the mountain. Those who do so, climb patiently without taking unnecessary risks, turn back when weather conditions are not ideal, and HAVE GOOD LUCK, get to live to be old folks. The rest die on the mountain.

    To answer the question, of the over 6,000 ascents of Mt. Everest through last year, over 1,600 were by Sherpas, and nearly 900 by Oriental Asians from China, Japan, Korea and so on.

    Tenzing Norgay, the Sherpa who climbed Mr. Everest with Edmund Hillary was an Oriental, and almost every climb up Everest requires Sherpas, usually all the way to the top. Several Sherpas have climbed it more than a dozen times.

    It is the rare climber who accomplishes the feat without native help, and rarer still, to have a person climb it solo, as the Northern Italian Reinhold Messner did. And he did it without oxygen. A bull of a man.

    Messner was the first to ascend Everest without oxygen, first with Peter Habeler in 1978, when there was a great controversy about whether it was possible. Many believed that they would die trying to reach the peak without bottled oxygen. Messner likes to say that “impossible” is in your mind, not in the thing you are trying to achieve. Two years later Messner would solo climb Everest without oxygen in incredible time and cement himself as the greatest Himalayan climber of all time. The reason Messner is alive today is his deep understanding of mountains and mountain conditions and his willingness to call off expeditions when he feels that the conditions are not optimal. On his solo attempt to climb of Everest without oxygen in the summer of 1980, he acclimatized for three weeks and made the first assault, reaching 7,000 meters and finding the snow so wet that he knew the avalanche risk was much too high. He descended, and moved north to Tibet, where the monsoon doesn’t reach. He climbed a few 7,000 meter peaks to keep his body acclimatized, and then returned to Everest. In August, the weather changed, becoming cold and most suitable for good snow conditions. Messner decided to climb. He started just after midnight and climbed from the advanced base camp (6,400 meters) to 7,800 meters elevation in ONE DAY. This is an incredible altitude gain at such high altitude. I believe that he descended before sleeping, because gaining so much altitude in one climb would give anyone altitude sickness that would kill you. He ascended Everest solo, with no oxygen, in three days, with two days for the descent. Messner: “On the way down, I needed my footprints, otherwise, I would not have the smallest chance to come back. It was slightly snowing and these clouds everywhere, sometimes a hole would open and I could see down to the glaciers. So I was looking back and the footprints were still there. Otherwise it would be dangerous, but I could find them, so I found my tent again.”

    It’s hard to overemphasize the effect of this solo ascent among the mountain climbing community.
    John Krakauer called it ” a deed widely regarded as the greatest mountaineering feat of all time.” The climbing community knew that Messner was a phenomenal climber, but this iced the cake, and as far as I know, NOBODY has ever matched this feat.

    Messner would be the first climber to summit all 14 of the world’s 8,000+ meter peaks without supplemental oxygen.

    Well, I fundamentally disagree. And so does no less an authority than Sir Edmund Hillary:

    “If you have someone who is in great need and you are still strong and energetic, then you have a duty, really, to give all you can to get the man down and getting to the summit becomes very secondary,” he told the New Zealand Herald, after news of Sharp’s death broke.

    “I think the whole attitude towards climbing Mt Everest has become rather horrifying,” he added. “The people just want to get to the top. They don’t give a damn for anybody else who may be in distress and it doesn’t impress me at all that they leave someone lying under a rock to die.”

    “If you have someone who is in great need and you are still strong and energetic, then you have a duty, really, to give all you can to get the man down and getting to the summit becomes very secondary,”

    No climber who has ascended to 7,500 – 8,000 meters elevation is still strong and energetic. I think that you lack a fundamental understanding of what climbing at such an altitude entails. When you enter the “death zone”, your body begins to break down; you are dying, slowly, quite slowly, and yet, if you remain there for a longish period of time, you will die. High elevation climbers understand that they have a window of opportunity to reach the peak and descend to lower elevation where there is enough oxygen to sustain human life. I completely agree with Hillary’s statement, but we must consider what is feasible for the people who are struggling at such an altitude.

    The sad truth is that the only climbers who are equipped physically to deal with climbers in great need are the Sherpas, and the stories of people being saved are nearly always those in which the Sherpas save lives and bring people down at considerable risk and danger to themselves. An incapacitated climber is very difficult to deal with, and we are talking about trying to take this climber down extremely steep slopes, often roping them to the Sherpas.

    Climb at your own risk. If I were younger and able, I would climb other peaks: never Everest. There are enough less climbed peaks that are super challenging, and every one of them, the 14 peaks over 8,000 meters, are super dangerous. My dream is to get to Nepal and climb East Lobuche, with an elevation just over 6,000 meters. There are wonderful opportunities to do trekking trips with just one or two days with some technical climbing using ropes. Real climbers would climb those without ropes or with just man ropes, but tourists like me would need fixed ropes. Know your abilities and weaknesses and plan accordingly.

    "The sad truth is that the only climbers who are equipped physically to deal with climbers in great need are the Sherpas"

    You bring up a good point and another reason that I find current-day Everest ascents to be distasteful. Climbers are putting the Sherpas under a considerable degree of moral hazard. Climbers know that they can rely on the experience and skill of the Sherpas to reach the top, and probably push themselves into dangerous situations that they otherwise wouldn't because of it. Is it fair to put the decision to go on or turn back in the hands of a Sherpa, who has the experience and knowledge to make the decision that the paying climber doesn't? Do the paying climbers consider the effect that their own death might have on a Sherpa? These are complex questions, and I don't think the typical climber considers them at all.

    "I think that you lack a fundamental understanding of what climbing at such an altitude entails."

    Those words aren't mine, they're Edmund Hillary's. If you would like to question his fundamental understanding of climbing, feel free, but as commenter JackD helpfully pointed out, he's dead.

    "If I were younger and able, I would climb other peaks: never Everest."

    Well, I think we fundamentally agree on the basics of what we're talking about. I'm not arguing to have climbing Everest shut-down, just that it's distasteful and that there are probably better and more worthwhile adventures to be had.

    It is important not to conflate Medicine with Science.

    Medicine is normally around 10-20 years behind advances in biochemistry/microbiology.

    Particularly RNA, where the science is still in its infancy, and has demonstrated thigns like reverse transcriptases that can bring at least parts of the SARS2 RNA into the gemome. A brand new discovery.

    Add to the fact that the average doctor is as well versed in cellular biochemistry as he is at nutrition – and you can see where the ‘experts’ are led by the nose by those with the loudest voices and fattest wallets.

    Political/social influence on science and medicine policy is not new.
    The Soviets had their Lysenkoism.
    We have a Corporatism that only treats symptoms, except with SARS2 where it refuses to even consider symptoms until the patient is moribund. They are completely oblivious to the biochemical ‘orthomolecular’ approach which has been evolving since the crude era of Pauling and his immediate successors. The concept being that a fully functional immune system can fight off pretty much anything – from allergies to cancer.

    So the problem is you are dealing with the worlds leading physicians who are ignoring the work of some of the worlds leading scientists who have done key work in the RNA field, such as Mallone and Montegnier.

    Fauci and his PIs are not researchers – they are salesmen, who have long forgotten their medical education, which would be obsolete by now anyway.

    These people may not be deliberately evil. Most likely they suffer from bureaucratic rot, a disease most noted in the USSR, and which Mao tried to cure with a social purgative of many, many lives. If you wash your head you will lose a few hairs….

    It manifests itself here in both government and corporatioons, beig essentially a fascist organism where our nomenklatura and their corporate sponsors are essential symbiotic parasites on each other.

    In fairness an ‘appeal to authority’ is often all the average person has when confronted by technical issues. But it is fundamentally irrational. The contradictions will and must become obvious in time.
    Soon your causes, will meet ‘our’ effects, and hopefully we can come to some type of Hegelian syntheses.

    In the mean time:

    It is the feast of Sol Invictus, and the celebrated birth of an itinerant, and probably mad rabbi whose followers helped introduce the concept of individual soul and sovereignity into Western Civilization, so the advent of Jesus should be celebrated by all ( although as a child forced to go to church – I found the religiouon repellant).

    Replies: @frankie p

    d dan,

    Communicating with you is very frustrating, because although we agree on many issues, you seem to believe that your opinions are facts. You continue to ignore the status quo and history of the China / Taiwan situation, and you approach things as if people in Taiwan are already a part of China. Wake up; they aren’t. The key is this: there’s a huge difference between being Chinese culturally and being Chinese politically, that is, being a citizen of the PRC.

    There are a few things you need to understand. First, being Chinese doesn’t demand following the laws of the People’s Republic of China. For example, a Chinese person whose family has lived for generations in France, or the USA, or Malaysia, or Singapore, and has citizenship in their home country but none in the PRC, has no obligation to follow or respect the laws of the PRC. I understand that the CCP has passed laws trying to control the actions and thoughts of such people, especially if they become activists in their home countries against the PRC. I also understand that if these people continue their activism against the CCP and PRC and then VISIT the PRC, there is a great possibility that they will be scooped up by the security apparatus in the PRC and tried as a Chinese citizen. I vehemently disagree with this strategy by the PRC, and it will lead to future problems. I further believe that Chinese people from other nations who become activists against the CCP are wise to this and will not visit China, including Hong Kong.

    1. Do you believe Taiwanese should be expected to follow Chinese laws, if they want to enjoy all the privileges of being Chinese?

    This is an interesting question, but I don’t think it’s one that Xi and the CCP spend a lot of time thinking about. The reason is reality. Xi and the CCP are working to persuade the people of Taiwan to return to the motherland. I feel that they have made a decision that the carrot will be more effective than the stick in achieving this objective. Showmethereal made a comment (246) about how the CCP has offered incentives to Taiwanese people who want to live/study/do business in China. There are opportunities for Taiwanese people to enjoy privileges ABOVE AND BEYOND those given to Chinese citizens. These policies have clear objectives; as more and more Taiwanese people have a stake in China and their economic welfare is dependent upon China, they will support reunification. This is soft power, and China has the resources to deploy A LOT OF it. I agree with this policy. On a personal note, my children, both citizens of the US and Taiwan (ROC), would have my blessing to study or start a business in China. I do not subscribe to the narrative that China and the PRC are some kind of evil that should be avoided. Many Taiwanese feel the same; they are able to see logic and avoid jumping into the emotional media game being carried out by certain interests that want to see China and Taiwan remain separated. The Covid-19 pandemic has greatly decreased the capacity for these kind of business/educational/residential opportunities for Taiwanese, but I believe that they will return after the pandemic dies down in 2022. In conclusion, China wants to return the “renegade province” to the fold, and they are willing to appeal directly to the people through incentives. Good overall strategy.

    2. Do you deny there are extreme corruption and treason among the “leaders”?

    There is extreme corruption among the “leaders” of nearly every country in the world, even the PRC, though I agree that the corruption is less there than in my country, the USA, where the “leaders” and system are totally corrupt.

    There is no treason among the “leaders” in Taiwan, because they would have to see themselves as part of the PRC for them to consider themselves treasonous to it. Again, keep in mind the history: these people have NEVER been governed by the PRC or obligated to follow its laws. Those in power today highly resent even the KMT, and see them as outsiders (foreigners) who used force to take control of Taiwan. I see the complexity of this situation, and although I don’t agree with the DPP and its insistence that the people in Taiwan are NOT CHINESE, I understand where they are coming from. Now that I’ve said that there is no treason, that makes it even more important that the two sides are brought together through shared interests and benefits. I think the leadership of the CCP understands this. I DO NOT SEE the CCP like our friend The Master Wang does, as being weak and a party that could be replaced with a more nationalistic alternative. To me that is ridiculous. I feel that the CCP follows a plan that involves sovereignty and nationalism in pursuit of a great future for the nation of China. I admire this plan very much and wish that my country could return to it.

    I DO NOT talk in a superior position. You are oversensitive when people disagree with you. I do not condemn you, just your ideas. My goal is to see an agreement between China and Taiwan that satisfies both sides. My goal is to see Taiwan avoid becoming a tool of the US in its desire to contain the rise of China, which is a hopeless objective. My goal is a peaceful reconciliation. Call me arrogant, I don’t care.

The problem with PRC right now is that there are too many special interests tied to Taiwanese (and Japanese, and western) businesses and money.

    Fortunately, there are evidence that some people in Beijing prefer stronger penalty against Taiwan "leaders".

    Then, Taiwanese should be subjected to Chinese laws too. Remember:

    1. Extreme corruption in PRC is subjected to death sentence. I won't be surprised that some of the current Taiwanese political thugs are close to or over that threshold of corruption.

    2. Treason is also subjected to death sentence. Again, many are very close to that threshold.

    3. If war unfortunately breaks out between the 2 sides, regardless of which side initiated it, many of the current and past Taiwanese leaders should also be subjected to death sentence.

    You just don’t get it, d dan, and that’s okay. Because Xi Jinping and the CCP DO get it. Your statement lacks any semblance of subtlety or respect for the context of the China/Taiwan issue. Again, I am glad that Xi is in charge and not you. Your statements are more than extreme – they are extreme bullshit.

    Do you deny my quote? “The CCP views the people of Taiwan as Chinese people, and the party has NO desire to kill Chinese people. ”

    The CCP considers the people of Taiwan as Chinese people, but at the same time they are fully aware of the fact that those Chinese people have NEVER been under the political control or system of laws in the People’s Republic of China.

    Their goal is to reunite the two sides. Their goal is not to sentence the Chinese people in Taiwan and foreign people to death for corruption and treason.

    The CCP will adopt strategies that will benefit the Chinese people of Taiwan, giving them opportunities to prosper economically if they would like to live/study/invest/open companies in China.

    Your descriptors, too, resemble the worst of the western media and establishment when they describe China. “thugs”, “evil forces”, etc. are all used to describe China, and here you are with the same.

    I’m glad that there are cooler heads in charge in China.

    To your comment about strategies... Well thag has been happening. It really went into earnest between 2008 amd 2016. That was why the US and Tokyo and the DPP helped the Sunflower Movement. If you look at the 2019 riots in Hong Kong - they attempted to use the same exact method... They just couldn't hold on to the Legco building.
    But there are many Taiwanese already making the most of opportunities and in some cases Taiwanese have more open opportunities on the Mainland than Mainland born people. There was even a delegation of Taiwan students who study on the Mainland who got a group tour of all the Winter Olympics facilities. Many of them noted other youngsters from the island should spend time on the Mainland. But that is exactly what the DPP and Washington dont want. Many realize when they visit they have been lied to...
    But yeah Taiwanese almost have full rights already. During Covid they have special rights to receive vaccine on the mainland.

    I’m very encouraged by the fact that Xi Jinping and the CCP are so much more rational than you are. The CCP will continue to seek a peaceful reunification with Taiwan, as it benefits China to do so. Remember, the CCP views the people of Taiwan as Chinese people, and the party has NO desire to kill Chinese people. I am appalled by much of the over-the-top homo/trans bullshit in Taiwan, including the constant promotion of that strange being, Minister Without Portfolio Audrey Tang (唐鳳). This DPP tactic is NOT a representation of the people of Taiwan. Your statements about Taiwan being beyond redemption are exaggerations; Taiwan is a very complex place, and there is a very good chance that as geo-political and economic realities become clearer over time, there will be a subtle change in politics on the island.

    You and other pro-China pundits on this site often come across as being extreme, and dare I say it, very UNLIKE Chinese people. As a matter of fact, many of you, though sporting Chinese handles, come across as being very WESTERN in your outlooks, arrogance and support for belligerence.

    A few points that I believe about Xi and the CCP:

    They have NO desire to attack Taiwan; they will be patient and understand that time is on their side. America is imploding, and allow it to do so will resolve the issue.

    They have NO desire to wipe out America, the west, white people, etc. Some of the comments from you and people like you are so unhinged, as unhinged as some of the vile Americans who promote war against China, like that bomb the three gorges dam vile creature. Don’t be like them!

    China is admirable in that it wants to promote the welfare of Chinese people, trade with other nations, and continue to progress. The CCP has no desire to “rule the world” or replace America as a global hegemon.

    China has an ancient civilization while America has yet to reach that status, being still in training-pants and barely out of diapers. Though many educated Chinese are likely to be at least tangentially aware of Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln, how many Americans are anything but clueless when it comes to Lao Tze or Kung Fu Tze. Perhaps I'm somewhat misspelling those names, but the identification should be reasonably clear.

    Some years ago on the internet I encountered an 8th grade graduation test given to Kansas 13 year-olds. After reviewing the questions, it struck me that perhaps I could barely have passed that ca. 1906 test. My impression is that the majority of Americans holding PHD's could NOT have passed it. Financed by the likes of the Rottenfeller Crime Clan and others of like mind, "educationists" such as John Dewey and James Bryant Conant, highly influential in schools of education in colleges and universities across the land, because of their status with the Ed. School at Columbia University in New York; determined that average Americans did not need to learn Latin, Greek and calculus, as their only usefulness to the elite would be to work in their factories and provide food from their farms.

    So the point of what I am relating to you is that the American people have been deliberately dumbed-down for more than 100 years, essentially for five generations. When high-school sports are more important to the institution and the community than history, geography and the arts; it should be obvious to any intelligent observer that Americans are purposefully being rendered into a new class of serfs. Technically and scientifically, many American colleges and universities maintain high standards, but the whole concept of citizenry within a republic becomes farcical when the average American is more knowledgeable about professional football than the duties of a citizen.

    Mourn for America. It's people have long been misguided and misgoverned by its elites.

    Then, Taiwanese should be subjected to Chinese laws too. Remember:

    1. Extreme corruption in PRC is subjected to death sentence. I won't be surprised that some of the current Taiwanese political thugs are close to or over that threshold of corruption.

    2. Treason is also subjected to death sentence. Again, many are very close to that threshold.

    3. If war unfortunately breaks out between the 2 sides, regardless of which side initiated it, many of the current and past Taiwanese leaders should also be subjected to death sentence. That is because Taiwan has many many opportunities for peaceful reunification. The dead soldiers who die for the war need to have justice repaid by the Taiwanese leaders.

    But yes both the Mainland and Taiwan sides use his image for legitimacy... Interstingly his widow chose to stay on the Mainland rather than flee to Taiwan with the KMT. She too is venerated - on the Mainland side.

    But there really isnt much that separates the two. The main issue is whether China should have a western style government or its own system. Other than that - there is no real difference. The CPC at one time did start to thrash any traditional Chinese culture - seeing it as backwards... But that stopped almost 30 years ago... In some ways it is the opposite that once Taiwan ended martial law and forged a western style democracy in the 90's - it is becoming an even more of a liberal western style society than either Japan or South Korea. This is not the ultra conservative Taiwan than the KMT sought to make it. Some of his rules were more strict than Saudi Arabia today.

    “Interstingly his widow chose to stay on the Mainland rather than flee to Taiwan with the KMT.”

    She hated the direction that Chiang Kai-shek had taken after the death of Sun Yat-sen. Charles Soong was the father of three daughters and one son. The oldest daughter, Soong Ai-ling married H.H. Kung, a descendant of Confucius and the richest man in China. He was the finance minister of China under the KMT government. (Concerning the three sisters, the Chinese say: “One loved money.”). The second daughter was Soong Ching-ling, who married Sun Yat-sen, the Father of China and the first president of the Republic of China (which included the Communists at that point.) She broke with the rest of her family and remained in China after the war, backing the Communists and indeed being named joint Vice President of the PRC, a mostly honorary position, from 1959-1972. (The Chinese say: “One loved her country”) The third sister, Soong May-ling, married Chiang Kai Shek, the leader of the KMT, commander in chief (Generalissimo) of the Chinese armies and later president of the Republic of China, moving the government to Taiwan where he ruled as an autocrat until his death in 1975. (The Chinese say: “One loved power”).

    CPC is the rightful party who carried out Sun Yat Sen’s vision to restore China’s glory – culminating in the “New Silk Roads”.
     
    I've wrestled with this too. Who is the rightful party?

    My hope is that both Taiwan and China will reunify peacefully, as they both have Sun Yat Sen's vision, and can find common cause.

    It is the U.S. and Atlantacism that is keeping the reunification from happening.

    Atlantacism is predicated on goods moving about by ship - and blue water navies. Taiwan is an outpost that can interdict shipping using Rim Theory. The outposts are conveniently located on shipping routes.

    I keep reminding people, that Atlantacism is an implanted memory, and is not American. If you are an American and believe in finance capitalism, and expeditionary war to protect creditors, then you are a traitor. If you believe in mammonism and finance shenanigans rather than productive economy, you are a traitor.

    Sun Yat Sen had adopted the American tradition, passed onto the American people at the founding.

    I would say that the Spanish American War (1898), then Teddy Roosevelt and his white fleet sailing around the world (1907-1909), was when the Atlantacists had arisen to control the brain center of America. The election of 1912 consolidated the gains, and then the tragedy of world war. The European people became deformed by false ideology.

    I live in Taiwan, and I can attest that Taiwan is moving farther and farther away from Sun Yat Sen’s vision, and indeed from any identification with being Chinese at all. This is very concerning for me, as it is a denial of their cultural identity. In addition, it is stoked by the DPP and the American establishment, who see Taiwan as a (disposable) containment tool. My own interest is the protection of Taiwan, my home. In any kind of belligerent conflict between the US and China, it is Taiwan that will pay the ultimate price.

    So when did they find time to invent the bagel in between slaves and silver mines 8,000 years ago?

    You do have a simple mind.

    A Jewish man would sit on an outdoor bench in Greek Markets. The Greek farmers would want some sort of luxury good available from somewhere in the Mediterranean, mostly so he could impress his wife or girlfriend. He wanted get some.

    You find this sort of thing often, where women make men do crazy things.

    In those days, the Jews were obviously physically different from the Greeks. They tended to be smaller and darker, with obvious Semitic features (more neanderthalic).

    A Jew would present a clay tablet to the Greek farmer, and said farmer would impress his mark into the clay. The mark was done with a stylus.

    Silver would emit forth from the ledger, and the farmer could get some trim that night.

    Control of the silver mines, especially in Lydia, allowed the “international jew” to make silver dear during harvest. The farmer had to sell his goods and wares at a discounted price due to the inability to acquire silver to pay back his silver debts.

    Eventually so many farmers were consigned to the silver mines, that food production stopped. Many farmers became slaves and buildings only faced the sea, as ships came to pick up newly “minted” greek slaves. That p*ssy was sure worth the price, wasn’t it?

    These sort of usurious shenanigans have been part and parcel of Jewish method since long before Christ.

    Jews being kicked out of countries some 108 times in history is no accident, it is due to “putting land next to land” (using fictitious capital and usury methods).

    When Jesus started his mission, it was on the Jubilee year.

    Judasim is now a creditor religion, which protects creditor rights. Judeo-Christianity is a creditor religion, which protects creditor rights.

    https://michael-hudson.com/2018/08/and-forgive-them-their-debts/

    and forgive them their debts, readers will discover shocking historical truths about how debt played a central role in shaping ancient societies. Perhaps most striking of all is that – in a nearly complete consensus of Assyriologists & biblical scholars – the Bible is preoccupied with debt, not sin.

    Still waiting on my Jewish friends to admit they use fictitous capital and usury as the mechanism for parasitic control. I won’t hold my breath.

The guy is just another Nathan Confas; he has an agenda to delegitimize KMAC and E.

Zionism may be the biggest current sin against an indigenous people, but the sins of the Jews have been a constant narrative throughout history, and there weren’t any Protestants to blame in the time of Emperor Claudius. However, the behavior described in his quote matches perfectly the behavior of the Jews today and throughout history.

    Don't forget the infamous incident where Jerusalem Jews, after the Persian conquest of the Levant, purchased 60,000 Christian captives, and killed them all.
    The Maccabean Revolt (no Romans directly involved) first involved the Jewish religious fanatics' massacre of all Jews they considered too Hellenized. Only later did the Seleucid king attack Judea. The revolt, like all Jewish wars and later revolutions, involved solely a revolt against Western/European Civilization in every aspect. All Akum are considered animals in a human form, created by Yahweh for the sole purpose of serving his princes night and day forever. Decent translations of the Talmuds are hard to find, although not as hard as finding an English translation of Solzhenitsyn's "Two Hundred Years Together" twenty years after publication in Russian. Just in case you heard any vicious rumors about Jews controlling book publishing.

    Like radioactive substances that decay faster than can be identified, I cannot figure out the gist of what the above article is trying to establish—as I read one sentence, I forget what the previous one said.
    But those quotes you supplied summarize much of the truth about Jews.

    And of course, Jesus hit the bullseye with every claim He made against them—and this cannot be overemphasized—His (and only) Testament is a nuclear denunciation of Judaism and Jews—an early Mein Kampf.
    Which is why Hitler wisely sought to scrub and pry stain of Torah off of the Testament of Christ (Positive Christianity) and why the corrupt brothel known as Vatican under Pacelli demonized him at every turn.

    Novus Ordo (Mundi) was the tombstone that put paid to these counter-satanic efforts.

    Apparently a fair number of folks here have either bought or plan to buy the Kennedy book. Perhaps some of them might learn from their reading what Mr. Kennedy would do if he were somehow put in charge of coordinating the Covid Pandemic response.

    What would he do?

    A word search of this page turns up the word "masks" only once, and I assume that's a reference to Faucci's "noble lie" about wearing masks. What does the book say about masks?

    Not a single mention of "ventilation" on the page. Does Mr. Kennedy address that in his book?

    Presumably he has a Covid Plan which does not involve vaccination. I'm really curious as to what that Plan might involve.

    Perhaps he favors a plan similar to Dr. Robert Malone’s plan, which I believe he presented to the Italian parliament. It is much more logical and science-based than anything “I represent science.” Fauci has come up with, so of course it will never be adopted.

    4 pronged proposal for dealing with the SARS-Cov-2 pandemic

    1. Save the vaccine that we have and use it globally to protect the elderly and very high-risk individuals. Do not deploy it universally and drive escape variants.

    2. Make imperfect but relatively effective repurposed drug therapies and combinations widely available for early intervention. We need to allow physicians to practice medicine and stop putting barriers in place to prevent physicians from distributing proven early-intervention strategies. The current model of only treating people after they are hospitalized is insane.

    3. Make rapid test kits available in the home. Yes, there will be false positives, but they can be confirmed with follow-up tests that are more specific.

    4. Develop computational tools or “apps” that can be put on digital devices, allowing people to key in their own information privately and receive information about their own personal risk. They can then make informed decisions about whether they are in a vulnerable group and should take vaccines.

    ...informed decisions about whether they are in a vulnerable group and should take vaccines.
     
    The vaccines are poisons that act in multiple ways:
    - production of pathogenic spike protein that inflames endothelium, causes blood coagulation, etc.
    - immune dysregulation (toll like receptors 3, 4, 7 & 8 disabled; P53 also) that renders people more vulnerable to cancer and viruses in general (see Ryan Cole videos in my comment #208)
    - PEG & who knows what else in the nanoparticles (graphene oxide or hydroxide?)
    - ??? who knows, given the lies and obfuscation of Big Pharma and the captured gov't agencies? We don't even know all the ingredients.

    The vaccines seem highly unlikely to be a net good for ANY group, including the elderly and very high-risk individuals. Non-genetic-jab approaches appear preferable in all cases.

    Vlad the Impaler (Vlad Dracula, Vlad III) was the voivode of Wallachia three times in his life. Politics in the Balkans at that time were extremely complicated, and your surface explanation of his fighting the Turks alongside the Hungarians and Austrians fails to address the long and complex political career that Vlad Tepes had. First, we must remember that young Vlad spent years as a "guest" (yes, actually a hostage) of the Sultan in the Ottoman Empire. This ensured his father's (the voivode at the time) loyalty to the Ottomans. It was said that he hung out with Jannisaries and it was there that he learned the disgusting practice of impaling that he subsequently became infamous for). Hungary under Hungarians invaded Wallachia and killed Vlad's father and eldest brother, setting Vlad's cousin up as voivode. Vlad Tepes (Vlad III, the Impaler) broke into Wallachia with Ottoman support after Hunyadi and the Hungarians attacked the Ottomans, taking his cousin, the voivode Vladislav along. Later, Vlad went to Moldavia and Hungary, and after relations between the Hungarians and his cousin Vladislav soured, he attacked and took control of Wallachia, this time with Hungarian support. Later he DID fight the Ottomans, and he matched their brutality. Quite an interesting story, from a different world, one in which life was cheap. Impaling was a horrible way to die, as a long sharp wooden stake was driven into the body at the anus, pushed up through the intestines and into the stomach and torso. The victim could still live a day or two if vital organs weren't too badly injured, and the suffering must have been horrific.

He was unimaginably cruel, so cruel that even the Turks fled in terror. Although he fought on the side of the Christians against Islam, his cruelty led the Pope to condemn him.

    Anecdote: I myself visited the castle of Drakula, in Transylvania, part of Hungary annexed by Romania after WW1.

    Mr. Wang,

    Taoism does not presuppose creation out of nothing.
    “Nameless” is not the same as “nothing”.

    I think that Jesus was well into Taoism. He, like Lao Tze, told people to be like water, and seek the lower ground. He even called himself “the Tao” or “the Way”.
    Chinese Christians who speak the words of Jesus say “I am the way, and the truth and the life”
    我是道路、真理、生命。 I am the Tao, the truth and the life.

    The way that can be spoken of
    Is not the constant way;
    The name that can be named
    Is not the constant name.

    The nameless was the beginning of heaven and earth;
    The named was the mother of the myriad creatures.

    Hence always rid yourself of desires in order to observe its secrets;
    But always allow yourself to have desires in order to observe its manifestations.

    These two are the same
    But diverge in name as they issue forth.
    Being the same they are called mysteries,
    Mystery upon mystery –
    The gateway of the manifold secrets.

  • This brings back a memory from about a decade ago. I was sitting in the living room of an old Chinese couple here in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, the husband born in Fujian Province and an immigrant in 1949 with the KMT. He wasn’t a soldier, but he was a scholar, and as his family had been involved with international trade with Japan, it was wise for him to make the move to Taiwan. The wife was a local Taiwanese woman. They had succeeded in Taiwan, both in government work, him as a teacher and then administrator in the school, and she was also a civil servant of some type. They had raised a daughter who was married and living in the US. They were quite wealthy, upper middle class I would say, with a number of properties that they had acquired over the years. The wife and daughter were Catholic, and the old man, Lao Tsai, was well on the road to converting, under the constant onslaught of pressure that only a Chinese/Taiwanese wife can bring to bear. We were talking about it, mostly in English, as I was surprised that he could carry on such a fluent conversation.

    He said, with what I see to be a world outlook positively brimming with Chinese culture, “In the Bible, there’s a story where God tells the Jews to paint the blood of a lamb on their doors to protect them. For he planned to kill the first born sons, every first born son of Egypt.”

    “I’m very aware of that story, I said. “The tenth plague, what the Jews call Passover.”

    He looked at me incredulously, with a baffled countenance.

    “What kind of God would kill the first sons of a society?”

    I answered immediately: “Not mine.”

    Read any Christian website now about this story. They are all full of excuses, why it really wasn’t God who killed the firstborn sons, it was some kind of “destroyer”. God was the one who was protecting the sons of those with lamb’s blood on their doors, and the rest of humanity, for that matter. The poor European derived people – they are unable to attribute such horrible descriptors to their God, such a blood-hungry, unforgiving God, as if he went through some kind of fundamental change between the Testaments, Old and New.

    I attended the funeral of Lao Tsai a few years later. It was in a Catholic church, and it was interesting to me to hear the entire Catholic mass in Chinese. I had heard it so many times in English in my youth, so I was able to follow it, unfamiliar as I was with a lot of the religious vocabulary.

    "Kakistocracy"
     
    The nearest member of the Kakistocracy to you at the moment is Ron Unz, the piece-of-shit Ashkenazi Jew that manages this site -- he does not own or fund it, the Ashkenazi do.

    I've studied the Jew Unz for a while. While it's natural that he's replete with the Satanic arrogance that Ashkenazi Jews are renowned for, his blatant and childish utilization of doppelgängers on his own site marks him out as a low-end gopher Jew.

    There's no doubt whatsoever that this site is controlled opposition. There's absolutely also no doubt that all useful info or details which this website gleams from users is passed on to Israeli intelligence and the Ashkenazi overlords in New York.

    There have been many pointers that Unz works for his scumbag Satanic Ashkenazi peado brothers. The most recent of which is Unz's relentless and quasi-subliminal promotion of the vaccines.

    What really nailed Unz, though, as a loyal and die-hard Ashkenazi was when a senior Israeli politician publically described him as "that kamikaze Jew in California". Note that the subhuman Israeli politician didn't describe Unz as "that kamikaze Jew in the United States".

    If, as the Jews attempted to portray, the Israeli politician was simply ranting to his countrymen about Unz's betrayal of Israeli, he'd have used the term "United States" instead of naming the locality of "California".

    It would be expected that a politician in Israeli who was referring to a traitor that was abroad would mention the name of the country he was in, rather than naming a specific locality within the country he was residing in.

    The reason the Israeli politician said "that kamikaze Jew in California" rather than saying "that kamikaze Jew in the United States" is because he wanted to reach White patriots in America, rather than his countrymen in Israel. The Israeli politician was simply selling Unz to US patriots as being a Jewish traitor, and, therefore, someone they could trust.

    That the Jews got the wording wrong in their psyop is only one piece of evidence that outs Unz as an Israeli operative. What really gives Unz away as a loyal Soros-esque Jewish shill is that Mossad doesn't engage in international name-calling with Jews that have committed treason against their homeland. They don't waste time childishly shouting across the Atlantic to the traitor, calling him a kamikaze.

    Rather, they would go and fetch the traitor and drag him back to Israeli and execute him, or throw him in jail. All the falsely accused "Nazis" that Mossad kidnapped in various parts of the world would back this up. As would the 5 or 6 Jewish agents that clapped, cheered, sang and took pictures as the twin towers came down.

    Finally, if you told a donkey that the Ashkenazi Jew, Ron Unz, was a traitor to Israel whilst living and making money in Jew owned California, the donkey would kick you. See how quickly Epstein and Murdock were offed when they disrespected and impeded Israeli plans for world mastery. Anyone that thinks (((they))) let Ron Unz disrespect and impede Israeli because they are incapable of offing him or taking him back home for trial is a fool.

    Ron Unz takes you all for suckers and losers. And perhaps you are. But remember, all the details you've given the Unz Review is already in the data banks of various intelligence services. Especially Jewish ones.

    Ron Unz, our host, is the creator of the “American Pravda” Series, a long series of historical revisionism of the events of the last 100 years in American history and an in-depth analysis of some of the powers that have pushed narratives that are not merely clearly counterfactual, their very purpose was to propagandize and misinform the public. While not focusing only on Jews and Jewish interests, a good part of this series touches on topics in which organized Jewish groups and wealthy Jews have supported, pushed, and influenced untrue and misleading historical perspectives, mostly with the same hackneyed question foremost in their minds: “Is it good for the Jews?”. Mr. Ron Unz has not approached ANY of these topics with kid gloves on. He is direct, unrelenting, and willing to shine a light on Jewish malfeasance that NO OTHER MAINSTREAM INTELLECTUAL will touch. Make of that what you will; you seem to see it as some evidence that he is controlled opposition or run by Mossad. I can see Ron laughing at that accusation. I see it more as an individual who values the truth. Let’s take a look at some of the issues that he has attacked with his unsparing honesty and truth. Keep in mind that these issues cause even non-political and non-Zionist Jews, brainwashed as they are to see the antisemitism golem behind every criticism of any individual or organized Jewish group, break into a heavy sweat. Here is a partial list of these important issues; forgive me for not being meticulous in listing every one: 1. The cancelling of David Irving despite his huge importance and excellent work as a historian 2. The gradual cancelling of the work and ideas from a huge number of important American intellectuals, writers and influencers from the early to mid 20th Century who held views different from the vanguard of (((new thought))), whether it was thinkers who opposed US intervention in WWII, criticized the financial policies of the FED, or mentioned the growing influence of the European and Russian Jews in US society. 3. The JFK Assassination and the idea of the involvement of Johnson and the servers of Israel he was surrounded by. 4. The strange practices of the Jewish religion and the idea that what has been dismissed as dog whistles, canards, etc. are actually factual. 5. The huge role of Jews in the Bolshevik Revolution and its bloody anti-Russian aftermath. 6. Antisemitism and the idea that so-called “antisemitic canards” are based in fact and antisemitism as a whole is more reactionary than some genetic tic in every goy. 7. The ADL and its pernicious role and influence in US society and government 8. Holocaust “denial” and the need for true revisionism, because denial and minimization are closer to the truth than what is taught in US schools as history. 9. Mossad assassinations and the inaction of the world to call them to account, mostly because of big money politics 10. The Israeli attack on the Liberty and the fantasy story of it being some kind of “accidental attack”.

    This list is not comprehensive. Sorry Ron Unz, but I don’t have enough time to compile and describe it all. I implore the readers of Unz to read it all; it’s a good project for a year. Ron makes compelling arguments, based on factual research. Thank God for Ron Unz, one of the only men with a voice on the internet who insists of truth, even when it is intensely unpopular.

    Van Morrison! Are you sure he’s still on that list. (((They))) have done their best to cancel old Van, though he is such an icon it may be impossible. Too many people love his art, and his perseverance.
    (((They))) have labeled him an ex-megastar, though, for his 2021 double album release ‘Latest Record Project: Volume 1’ his 42nd record release. Yes, you read that correctly, it says 42.

    Steven Thomas Erlewine reviewed it on allmusic dot com. Here’s an excerpt:

    “He takes dead aim at his irritants with song titles that convey as much as his full set of lyrics: “Where Have All the Rebels Gone,” “No Good Deed Goes Unpunished,” “Stop Bitching, Do Something,” “Why Are You on Facebook,” and “They Own the Media.” The latter song thankfully doesn’t descend into conspiracy tropes — a justifiable worry considering how Van wrote a series of anti-lockdown singles during the Covid-19 pandemic — but it does show how Morrison’s crankiness has calcified into nastiness.”

    “doesn’t descend into consipracy tropes”?!?!?!?! Not according to (((them)))

    We’ll let you decide, but I have to say. Great job, Van. The truth is much more important than staying in the good graces of the powers that be, bit tech, and big media:

    You are proving the idea of precious metals as sound money each time you write though, Nsa. Your relating of what happened with silver money is the same as what happened with gold during Great Depression 1.0. (I expect another.) Paper money could be turned in for gold at a bit over 20 dollars per ounce. If the government started printing money above the amount of gold that could back it, people could and would keep the government honest by turning in their paper for the real money.

    You show what happens when the government does NOT respect sound money, not when sound money is supported, as, believe it or not, was the case for MOST (not during the War Between the States) of US history from the Founding till, the Federal Reserve bank in 1913.

    As for your repeated last part about "not enough gold in Ft. Knox", etc., well, first I should just say that I doubt there's any significant amount of gold in Ft. Knox. That aside, yes, if the dollar was backed by gold now, an oz would be "worth" many times* what it is now in dollars. So what? That shows the huge decrease in the value of a Dollar, but an ounce of gold is still an ounce of gold. It's that $90,000 that is worth the same as 20 bucks 85 years ago that has changed.

    If you reply, I'll give my example about 2 dimes buying a gallon of gas.

    Finally, yes, of course they are inflating the US dollar away. That's the easiest course of action for a government. However, it is stealing from all American who hold any assets though. They don't care.
    .

    * Let's see, not counting gold in private hands, cause I don't know that amount, the US supposedly has about 8,000 tons of it. I really can't wrap my head around which money supply definition should be used, but M1 is about $20 Trillion. That's means it ought to be $90,000 per troy oz of gold.

    I accept Unz's theory for Iran's outbreak. I would be surprised if the CIA was NOT involved, particularly when you contrast with the US Congress where only one of our fine 535 elected officials, who also had cancer, died from Covid. Lots of old people (the only really Vulnerable group, >95% of deaths globally are in those over age 60) still working in Government, but amazingly few Covid deaths.

    I do NOT accept Unz's theory that there was nothing going on in Wuhan or the one Australian scientist working there would have known about it. In six years at NIH and many years in academia and in industry, I knew most of the people in nearby labs, interacted socially with them, but in many cases they WERE NOT ALLOWED to discuss their research. Yet Unz thinks the Chinese are more open? I agree they are generally nice people (as are Russians I've met), but some research results can be shared, some cannot. Gain-of-function research would not be disclosed, because the funding was not allowed (wouldn't want to endanger lab $$$$).

    I will go with David Baltimore's view that the furin cleavage site, with two human arginine codons, was almost surely the result of a lab. Most likely some grad student or low level scientist was working on a common cold coronavirus (originally from bats, from the same clade of beta coronaviruses along with SARS not known to have furin cleavage sites, thus incapable of picking it up by recombination with other betacoronaviruses in that clade) and added the furin cleavage site so the virus could be grown more easily in human cell cultures. This is speculation of course, but fits the data as well or better than Unz's theory. Technicians are generally young and if they were infected with this common cold virus (which became SARS-CoV2), they are unlikely to have more than common cold or mild flu symptoms; it is only when Covid-19 started racing through the older population that it became a problem (or opportunity). I am open to the possibility that this happened in the US, and the CIA opportunistically pinned it on the Chinese. Could happen. But the measures the Chinese took to cover-up all early work on the virus, including taking down their early sequence website data (which I'm sure are available somewhere, but no longer open to research on the origins) strongly suggests they have something to hide.

    The present focus on "VACCINATE!", "VACCINATE!!", "VACCINATE!!!" rather than on the IMMUNITY from Covid infection, which is clearly superior as much less "leaky" than the spike protein (S1)-vaccines being rammed into us, also suggests that some other non-scientific, non-medical agenda is still being pushed domestically. Many countries (Sweden of course early on) are now pushing Covid infection immunity rather than S1-vaccines and boosters (which are still high benefit: risk for the most vulnerable ONLY); this includes highly vaccinated Iceland and Singapore who HOPE that natural immunity will be established on top of the inferior spike protein-based immunity. Not known yet. We will all get the delta variant (or worse) eventually and either are dependent on Covid infection for natural immunity (which most Americans have based on CDC estimates: cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/burden.html ), or we need much better vaccines, preferably WHOLE virus (attenuated or dead) vaccines with all 25 SARS-CoV2 proteins rather than just the ONE spike protein.

    I thank you for your interesting comment and the CDC link on estimated COVID-19 burden. Perhaps you could explain your statement, “which most Americans have based on CDC estimates”, because I am not seeing that in the link you provided. According to the CDC link, the estimated number of total infections at the end of May, 2021 was 120.2 million, well over a third of the population. I find it amazing that the CDC has published this information on its website and virtually NO Americans are aware of this high number of people with natural immunity. However, it still doesn’t jibe with your “most Americans” comment. Am I missing something? Thanks again for your comment and the link.

    • Replies: @michael888
    @frankie p

    Yes it was estimated at 120 million end of May (not clear why the FDA never updates some things-- not official narrative-correct?-- and makes OUR data almost impossible to sift through.)

    I simply took the CDC formula: 4.2 X the official Covid case rate (46.9 million) which equals ~197 million. Taking the population as 333 million, then 59% of Americans would have had Covid and thus natural immunity.

    Obviously this is a simplification. The estimation formula may have been wrong from the start Remember Dr. Jay Bhattacharya noted by antibody assays that in his area Covid cases were 10 to 50-fold higher than reported to the CDC. This was early on and he was trashed. Also he and others have noted that cellular immunity to Covid may be better and longer-lasting than antibody immunity (known to fade quickly with coronaviruses). My guess is that the CDC bases all IMMUNITY (thus its estimates) on spike protein vaccines, their antibody titers and assays developed just for spike protein. This is only ONE of the SARS-CoV2's 25 proteins; quite likely the other 96% may be important in natural immunity.

    Over half of Americans have had the S1 vaccine which possibly "ruins" natural immunity. We know the S1 antibody titers go sky high when someone with natural immunity is S1-vaccinated. We know next to nothing about natural immunity and responses the other 24 viral protein. The prevailing view seems to be that natural immunity will be additive to the spike protein immunity. This is likely wishful thinking. Would really like to see a lot of non-spike protein data for Covid for natural immunity, S1-vaccine immunity and, most of all, the combined immunities.

    And if the demography of the USA was still the way it was back in 1971, or even 1981, there wouldn’t have been a single state with a vax mandated, and thus not a single Western ally with a vax mandate, and thus very few if any cargo-cultist vax mandates in the rest of the world.

    Had the US population not been replaced, and still say 80% heritage white, there would have been no vax mandates anywhere. Except possibly Turkmenistan.

    If war breaks out Iran will be on its own. Russia and China will sell it weapons and other resources but no way will they fight on its side in war operations. Israel will definitely push US and Western allies to go for war which may not involve a land invasion but only massive bombing to cause as much destruction as possible and to cripple the Iranian military and economy. They are like that and this is doable. I see very little that can stop it. They would hope to plunge the country into chaos and provoke a colour revolution, civil strife and even a civil war in the aftermath. Iran is going down but hopefully it will be able to cause massive destruction to US forces and allies in the region as it goes down fighting, but how much and whether this is acceptable to the belligerents is debatable. Iran once fought Iraq to a standstill so you shouldn't expect much more from them now.

    Israel and the beholden Uncle Sam USA are both painfully aware of the fact that any attack on Iran will result in a massive missile salvo on Israel itself from a variety of locations, primarily from Hezbollah in Lebanon, but also from Iran itself, Iraq, and Syria. In addition, as you mention but fail to detail, Iran will immediately attack US allies in the region, close down the Strait of Hormuz, and incapacitate Saudi Arabian oil production, refining and shipping. The effect of this on the global economy would be catastrophic. Russia and China WOULD support Iran, and that support could include a wide variety of weapons and tactical help. Keep in mind the short distance between northern Iran and the Russian Caucasus Region. Do you actually think that Russia will just stand by while its ally is bombed and “is going down”? I don’t think so. So, in my view, “If war breaks out..” is a massive “if”. It just ain’t happening, no matter what kind of noise we hear from the western jewmedia and the empty suits from Israel. They are sweating heavily under the collar in fear of the Resistance, and although they are getting hysterical and desperate, they will not go so far to bring about their own end.

Anyway a bombing campaign against Iran would get the US troops finally kicked out of Iraq.

    Thanks. I DO realize what Comfortably Numb is about. I was probably 17 when the album The Wall was released, and I know that song inside out. I can play it, I can sing it, and I have listened to it countless times.

    This is not about some “hep cat jazz soloist” noodling. The song is for a band to play, and it has a rigid structure. We are not talking about changing the concerted effort. We are talking about the possibility of a different solo in the two solo sections, the first one eight measures long, the second one running on and on, probably 40 measures or more live, and guess what? I just listened to Live in Pompeii 2016 and Gilmour most definitely improvises during the second solo section, though he also plays the parts on the record in the early part of the solo.

    Gilmour, with later Pink Floyd and also solo, has done great new work. Faithfully playing older classics never stunted him musically. He maybe never reached the thematic grandeur of ’70s PF, but there are gems in his later works. And to his credit, he never turned away from his older stuff, and was wise to keep control of “Pink Floyd” the commercial entity.

    But ultimately I think we agree on the important stuff: Pink Floyd, and Gilmour, are great. (Not exactly an obscure opinion, I know :) )

    “You or I would” is true, because you and I are not independently wealthy to the degree of a David Gilmour.

    Gilmour should play Comfortably Numb in his next concert with a completely different solo.

    It’s NOT all about the listener.

    Listen to some of this interview with Bill Evans, done by the famous Marian McPartland, herself a famous jazz pianist as well as journalist/reporter.

    “As far as the jazz playing goes, I think the rhythmic construction of the thing has evolved quite a bit. I don’t know how obvious that would be to the listener, but the displacement of phrases, and the way phrases follow one another, and their placement against the meter is something I’ve worked on rather hard, and it’s something that I believe in, it has little to do with trends, it has more to do with my feeling about my basic conception of jazz structure and jazz melodies and the way the rhythmic things follow one another. And so I keep trying to get deeper into that, and as the years go by, I seem to make some progress in that direction, and do some things which please myself, and I know what’s happening… We must look at it as an art; I mean, otherwise we get so confused because there are a million things that you can do, so you just have to perfect your own art, and hopefully there will be room for it, and I’m very thankful for the position I have and the freedom I have, and I just keep my focus and I play what pleases me.”

    Here is a lesson on how advanced Bill Evans’ playing and conception of jazz (and all) music was. Although Marian McPartland was a famous jazz pianist, she had NO IDEA of what he was talking about when he talked about jazz soloing and “displacement of the phrases”. She asks him to demonstrate on the tune that he opened with “Waltz for Debby”, his most famous song. He refused, as that song is for solo piano, and suggested “All of You”, another Evans original. They did this interview in a piano shop, and they jammed together on many tunes. Evans demonstrated what he meant.

    There is more than one way to look at this.

    Jazz is jazz partly because it is improvisational, especially during solos. That is cool.

    Would you expect an orchestra to change up (jazz up) its performances of, say, Beethoven's 5th Symphony?

    Joe Walsh (one of my favorites) recounted how he and Don Felder created their guitar duet for Hotel California: He said they started out improvising, but then Don Henley urged them to stick to the structure of Felder's original demo tape which had started the whole project.

    Walsh said that then he and Felder worked together for three days until they could precisely play what became one of the greatest guitar segments of any song. From then on, they played it the same at every performance, because it is part of the song.

    If China is so wonderful, why do working class Chinese borrow 50 K US dollars at 30 percent interest rates, get in a shipping container with a chemical toilet and spend weeks with 100 other debt slaves to get to America so they can work in a nasty sweat shop or restaurant and sleep on the floor till the debt is paid off?

    And why do middle class and wealthy Chinese sacrifice everything to save enough money to buy real estate, in America so they can escape China when the next upheaval comes? And why is every America university overloaded with Chinese students who havc no intention of ever going home?

    Riddle me that Mr Hudson.

    You should look at the real world instead of your antiquated perspective of how the world used to be.

    First, if you have looked at trends over the past 40 years at all regarding Chinese students who study in US universities, you will find that nearly ALL of the Chinese students now plan to return to China to work and care for their parents. This is a no-brainer for anyone who looks at the job market and opportunities. Some Chinese students will work in the US for a few years, mainly to gain experience and relationships that will bolster their resume for when they return to China. The time of the Chinese students who attend US universities and never return is decades in the past.

    Second, the Chinese who buy real estate in the US do NOT do so to escape the next upheaval. They are smart enough to know that the next upheaval is going to occur in the US, not in China. They invest in the US because they are aware of the nature of the financial capitalism that exists in the US, and they follow the ever-increasing bubble in real estate. Investors tend to believe that trends will continue, so they invest in US real estate to profit from ever-increasing housing prices. The idea of a chance for a green card is certainly an extra bonus here, no doubt about it, but in most cases, the investors will use that for the wife and kids while they remain in China to make money and be productive. They are hedging their bets.

    Finally, how many Chinese really use the “snake heads” and get smuggled to the US? Really. Now think about it. What is the population of China? How many Chinese are being smuggled into the US these days? Answer: a completely insignificant number. And those who do want to enter the ranks of the illegal immigrants in the US are unskilled, unproductive, and hold out some hope that they or their children will be amnestied into US citizenship and can start sucking on the teat of US government welfare benefits.

    It’s the 21st century. Stop looking at the world through your 20th century sunglasses.

    I generally like the points of view of Michael on the economy and his way of pointing out the contrast there is between industrial capitalism and financial capitalism. However I don't like much his use of the word rentier to characterize financial capitalism. Basically a rentier is someone who trades capital for a cashflow. If that transaction is done at normal interest rates related to the real inflation rate, this is a fair transaction, right?

    I think the current problem is that the rent paid to large financiers is calculated at unfair interest rates. The large financiers get too high a rent in exchange of their cash. Or they have monopolies.

    The reason for the problem, as I see it, is the artificially low interest rate paid on the US dollar by the bankers and the large monopolies that now rule the US based economy (BlackRock for pension funds, Microsoft for operating systems, rich people speculating on housing, etc.).

    My background is in science and engineering, not in economy. I like to keep the words well grounded and I try to stay away from using euphemisms. I feel it very dangerous when I hear the word "clean" in the mouth of a military officer. I understand Michael wants to impact on his audience by using the expression "rentier economy" figuratively in place of "financial capitalism". But I find the last one less confusing. Maybe there is a difference between both which I don't see.

    For example. Microsoft has a lot of cash. They could use their cash to start a new business line. That would be "industrial capitalism". Actually they rather borrow money at low interest rates to buy an existing business and they deduce the interest paid from their income. Then they use their leverage to limit the growth of competitors. And Microsoft didn't use its cash. That's "financial capitalism".

    The idea is that there is more than the rentier component to financial capitalism.

    Rentier concept is derived from rent-racking. The process by which the landed gentry would jack up rents on their lands, to then suck the increment of production from an industrializing economy. As labor made gains, then apartment/housing rent prices would be increased, so the increment of production was sucked out of labor’s pocket, and transferred to the landed owners.

    This was especially critical in England, where a landed gentry existed as a function of the Norman conquests.

    Rentier is a term that is used when there is some sort of taking of gains, with no counterpart in production. A rentier is a parasite in that they consume the wealth production of the host.

    It’s possible for somebody to invest capital, and earn some cash flow, and not be a rentier. For example, the cash invested in something productive (usually physical economy), where the production yields gains.

    Absentee landlords were used in this article as an example of cash invested into property, then the absentee landlord later cashes out after the property has gone up in price. The very act of buying up property using foreign flows of money, pushes up prices and forces a housing bubble, where the natives have to bid against each other by hypothecating themselves with new property debts.

    The way out of rentier activities in real estate, is to tax away the gains, especially with Georgist style site value taxes. Also, it would take government power to forbid foreign flows into buying up and taking rents.

    But, in a financialized west, there also exists brainwashing (I’m talking to you Lolbertarians and Neo-liberals), where rents and unearned income don’t exist. If there is no words for a concept, then the concept doesn’t exist, or at least it cannot be talked about. By erasing concepts, then pockets may be picked.

    So why doesn't G.M and Ford jack up the price of their cars and do likewise ?

    Of course they can't, because consumers will go ELSEWHERE and get better value for money.

    Similarly, land holdings are NOT monopolised by one group of people or any particular cartel.

    The rents charged are a function of SUPPLY and DEMAND.
     
    Libertarians understand this as does anyone with even the most basic grasp of economics (unlike Mefoe-bull and Michael Hudson).

    If one particular cartel of rapacious oligarchs, with significant land holdings in say Chicago, colluded and jacked up the rent in that city, that would just incentivise tenants to go elsewhere and find a reasonably priced landlord.

    If said rapacious land owners controlled a critical share of the markets like say 80% for example (no cartel does but let's just assume that for arguments sake), and they doubled the rents overnight, this would entail a diversion of potential tenants to the remaining 20% of rentals properties on the market and that would (temporarily) jack up prices city-wide to an artificial plateau.

    This would NEVER happen in the real world.

    Marginal businesses with slender margins would not be able t0 afford the higher rents and would go bust or just close up.
    Others, that would still be profitable with a doubling of the rents, would find that that their bottom line is severely affected.
    They would relocate to another county or town nearby or move interstate.

    Others would close down their U.S operations and move offshore (where their overheads - rent and wages - were far lower and would never return*).

    (*Look at the rust belt states in the U.S as proof that once thriving commercial properties are now next to worthless and tenants cannot be found to fill the vacancy at even a fraction of the former rental rates).

    In no time at all, when one factors in the businesses that have gone bust, those that have relocated etc, soon enough we have a situation where the bulk of properties are vacant and, because of their greed, the landholding oligarchs are getting NO RENTAL INCOME.

    SOLUTION: Rental prices will have to come down drastically to lure back those that have left and/or attract others form adjoining jurisdictions.

    End Result: The rent may actually be much LOWER in a years time than it was before the price increases were implemented.

    The example above was for Commercial rental properties.

    It applies equally to residential properties.

    When rents go up for homes and apartments, it prices certain individuals out and they relocate to other towns and cities.

    Of course, residential and commercial rents are affected by many other factors - like the state of the economy.

    When there's a recession (and even more so for the inflationary Depression that's coming America's way after decades of monetary and fiscal profligacy), people lose jobs, demand is curtailed and businesses go bust.


    Demand for both residential and commercial property is greatly reduced and RENTS DROP LIKE A STONE - irrespective of the machinations of the 'landed gentry' and their propensity to 'jack up the rents on their lands'.
     
    So Me-Foe-Bull, stop your demonising of the Libertarians and actually try and learn REAL economics from them.

    Since you're somewhat of a dullard, try this first:

    If the Iranians overstate their abilities so much, pray tell why Trump did NOT respond militarily to the missile attack on Ayn al-Asad Airbase in Iraq. No, let me tell you. Trump arranged for a message to be sent through the Swiss, asking for a location that the US could bomb without any damage to Iranian assets, a face-saving measure for the US. The Iranians put their entire military and missile forces on the highest level of preparation and replied that ANY attack on ANY grain of sand of Iranian territory would result in a full response. Military satellite information confirmed the preparedness of the Iranians, and the US backed down.

    Seriously, raga, get your head out of your ass and do some research. Even as far back as 2006, Hezbollah took out the Israeli Navy’s corvette INS Hanit with a C-802 anti-ship missile. Since that time, they have increased their guided missile arsenal and upgraded countless rockets to GPS guided missiles using the “suitcase kits” provided by Iran, a program pushed for and made successful by Qasem Soleimani.

I expect the encouragement to begin with policies similar to those we see in Orban’s Hungary, with large tax forgiveness for families that produce three or four children.

    Modern industrialized countries are in population decline. Why? Because when "women" become work units for labor; they see their value as substitute men, and not as a woman.

    Finance Capitalism wants a labor unit at a low price, and one aspect of Neo-Liberalism is to convince women to enter the workforce, and eschew the hard unmonetized work of child bearing and rearing.

    China's industrial capitalism has not advanced to the stage where women are sent home, and housing prices are held down, to then allow family formation.

    https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2020/06/23/goebbels-1933-speech-masculine-women-feminine-men-low-birth-rates-it-could-have-been-written-today/

    The woman in public life today is no different than the women of the past. No one who understands the modern age would have the crazy idea of driving women from public life, from work, profession, and bread winning. But it must also be said that those things that belong to the man must remain his. That includes politics and the military. That is not to disparage women, only a recognition of how she can best use her talents and abilities.

    Looking back over the past years of Germany’s decline, we come to the frightening, nearly terrifying, conclusion that the less German men were willing to act as men in public life, the more women succumbed to the temptation to fill the role of the man. The feminization of men always leads to the masculinization of women. An age in which all great idea of virtue, of steadfastness, of hardness, and determination have been forgotten should not be surprised that the man gradually loses his leading role in life and politics and government to the woman.

    It may be unpopular to say this to an audience of women, but it must be said, because it is true and because it will help make clear our attitude toward women.

    China has allowed a housing bubble, pushed by a group of privatizing intermediate banks (who took block loans from the State banks). China's leadership has to address the house pricing problem, and the "laying flat" problem, otherwise China's women will choose not to reproduce.

    I'm not saying there aren't some very conservative Hispanics and Asians, of course there are. But they are a different people with a different history and different traditions. That changes what America was.

    Do you really think Fred hates us? I don't get that impression. He writes fondly of his youth and points out the mistakes of America's ruling class. He likes Hispanics, he's married to one, lives as an expat in Mexico and gets along with them, so what? He's not wrong in arguing that Hispanics aren't leaving, and that we're going to have to find a way to get along with them. It's over. Every day more and more illegals are swarming over the border, and legal immigration is out of control. In 2015 the official number of Hispanics was about 57 million. Probably only legal Hispanics. Before Biden is done, there'll be another 10-20 million and all of their kids will automatically have citizenship, I can see an amnesty in there, too. America will be the equivalent of a South American country within 20 years, an Argentina, or maybe a more dysfunctional Brazil. We're already a banana republic, obviously corrupt elections, imperial edicts from el presidente, inflation, etc. There's no stopping it now. We're going to have to start paying more attention to guys like Fred Reed to understand where our kids and grandkids will be living soon.

    I don’t think Fred Reed hates the 1960s America he grew up in at all. He writes often with his fond memories of the old USA. Let me define who I meant by “us”, Rich. From reading his stuff, I have noticed that the guy will disparage all those Americans who have been working for years to stop what you and Mr. Reed say we should just lay back and accept.

    As one example, Peter Brimelow has been fighting against the immigration invasion since the mid-1990s, Rich. Yet Fred Reed derides the VDare people, who he even worked with, or wrote for, for a small bit. He derides Conservative Americans who have been fighting this shit for decades.

    I consider myself part of “us”, not just because I write comments about Mr. Reed being a pseudo-intelligent asshole who never gets to the root of problems. I am part of “us” because I and family members having been supporting those who have tried to end the American experiment in stupidity since the 1960s! I have my blog, which is no big thing but a little difference I can make.

    I don’t like to just give up, Rich. If it comes to what you describe, I and my family will not be in that section of the former America that you describe.

    Anyway, thanks for your question. I hope this explains my attitude about this asshole a little better.

    I've been fighting to stop and deport illegal aliens for years. I'm still doing all I can. Problem is, it's over. Unless there's a right wing coup that begins deporting all non-Europeans and Whites begin having more children (not going to happen). My bet is we're at about 80-90 million Hispanics right now. What will 4 years of Biden do? All the dems and half the repubs favor more immigration. The border is wide open, Mexicans, Central and South Americans are swarming into the country. And many, I think it's close to 40%, are intermarrying with White Americans. Looks to me like we've got a new nation. I hope I'm wrong, I wish I was wrong, my eyes and ears tell me I'm right.

    TKK,

    You point out one facet of a broader government run movement in China that should resonate with conservatives in the US, especially Christian conservatives. The social policies that the Christian Protestant Right are always whinging and railing about and wishing would change are being actively changed and stamped out by Xi and his dominant faction of the CCP. Let’s look at some of the components here: First, China has recently announced that children under 18 will be limited to 3 hours of online gaming per week, and the monitoring of this gaming will be the responsibility of the internet gaming companies under constant scrutiny of the CCP’s regulators. Although it’s clear that this will spawn a new business model, the “rented” internet account, it will still have a significant result. Later, the CCP announced that they would not approve ANY new online games, and this ban is indefinite. Strong words were published, “Children are addicted to electronic drugs.” Another part of the curbing of the internet giants in China involves user privacy, with laws being passed forbidding internet companies to sell user information without the users’ consent. This also involves mandatory toolbars to allow users to opt out of their browsing or shopping information to be sold for profit. The war on the “culture of celebrity” which is touched on in your video, is another step that the Christian Right would be right behind, as they hate the Hollywood culture and its decadence. The fact that they have put an outright ban on “sissy boys” on both tv and the internet is telling. Niang Niang Pao: “Sissy Guns” is what the Chinese call these effeminate pretty boys, and the CCP is having none of it. Pile this on top of the CCP bans on pornography online, and the Christian Right is going apoplectic with envy.

    I admit openly that I support ALL of these policy moves by the CCP, and none more than the reining in of the big tech internet giants, which has hurt both foreign institutional investors, ADR holders and the elite 5% and rich oligarchs in China.

    The difference between the Christian Right and myself is that they have been propagandized by the US Media to see China as the bad guy, a totalitarian state that oppresses Christians. The Protestant Right, dialed in as they are to the Ben Shapiro / Prager U stream of conservative Jews who promote the fallacy of Judeo-Christian values, need to wake up to real actions and see that China is pursuing policies that will improve social values and lead to a better, healthier society for the people of China.

    You are 100% correct in your assessment and I have had conversation about that with people. Aside from abortion being legal - the CPC also has far more family friendly policies than the liberal west. China's divorce rate had begun to skyrocket close to western levels. So now China institututed a "cooling off period" where they must council and attempt to reconcile beofre the divorce is granted. The rise has slowed (though still higher than in the past). Now all social policies are directed toward families having more children.
    So yeah you would the Chrisitan Righg would want to befriend China (and Singapore and Russia) -- but the phrase "communist party" is a trigger word...

    Contrary to the bible they concern themselves with titles rather than deeds.

    I constantly hear Americans say idiotic things, like we must station troops in Taiwan to protect that nation against Chinese aggression. Constant ramblings about the evil CCP that defy reality. But the Taiwanese will not allow American troops as they see no threat and cut their military's budget the past decade and cut the size of their active duty army in half. China is their biggest trading partner and millions visit mainland China each year while millions of "Reds" visit Taiwan.

    An invasion by China is seen impractical in the same way Canadians don't fret about an American military invasion. Yes, Taiwanese Generals make claims of threats to boost their budgets while their leaders get easy trade agreements with the USA when they say they need help to defend Taiwan. This is how they stole our high-tech industries like semiconductors. Whatever military tech we send to Taiwan is secretly shared with their business partners on the mainland. If the USA goes to war with China over some stupid provocation, expect Taiwan, South Korea, and the Philippines to remain neutral while the Han Chinese on Taiwan quietly cheer for their brother Han Chinese on the mainland to show the American devils they are better.

    Carlton,

    I respect your comments and your videos. However, you are WAY off on this one. You are in the reality from a decade ago. Things have changed. I live in Taiwan.

    @frankie p

    I look at hard facts. We are told Taiwan is threaten with invasion. However, they cut the size of their active army in half a decade ago and show no interest in increasing it. Their military spending remains at around 2% of GDP. Compared to around 8% of GPD for the soon to be bankrupt USA when all "national security" spending is counted. Only half our military spending is found in the budget of the Department of Defense.

    https://www.globaldata.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/PR9953.png

    So it takes an immense and continuous propaganda campaign to convince people to ignore the fact that Taiwan has no real concern about an invasion. Every week I see BS like the article that showed up in dozens of new sites last week, in rags like Newsweek.


    Taiwan's defense ministry reported that Chinese military airplanes—including nuclear-capable bombers—flew into the nation's air defense identification zone on Sunday.
     
    Google search for this and you see it repeated everywhere. Of course any aircraft that can carry a large bomb can be called "nuclear capable" and Taiwan's air defense zone extends into mainland China. The BBC article did the leak the truth:

    https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-58459128


    The defence ministry released a map showing a flight path north-east of the Pratas, closer to the Chinese coast than the Taiwanese coast.
     
    So Chinese bombers with no bombs flew along its own coast nowhere near Taiwan and that is deemed a threat!

    Remember a year ago when it was daily news about the evil Chinese cracking down on rioters in Hong Kong. Most Americans don't realize Hong Kong is part of China. The dispute was that Hong Kong refused to extradite any wanted criminals to other Chinese states, and the CCP insisted they must. It was proven that foreign NGOs were instigating most protests and violence and most people in Hong Kong supported the crackdown. The silly Hong Kong story died, so they spun up the threat to Taiwan like they've done for 70 years.

    Stryker,

    Read some history about when the Chinese first went to Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. Hint: It was WAY before the western countries had ever visited these places. So to say that the Chinese first went to these places as cookies in western colonies is preposterous.

    I would agree that the Chinese were in Southeast Asia 1000 years prior to the British or Americans in Philippines.

    However, Singapore & Malaysia benefitted from British systems of law.

    And in any event, nobody is going to tell me that the Overseas Chinese Community of SEA is not greedy. Their avarice is incredible.

    It's the reason that quota systems were set up in Malaysia-to hold them in check.

    It's certainly true that Chinese were well established in Malacca ( and elsewhere ) when the Portuguese arrived but they were relatively few ,largely involved in trade and not really part of the local body politic so to speak
    I've chatted socially with many Malaysian and Singaporean Chinese . Every one of them had ancestors who came from China in the 19th century to seek work in the British colonies . You rarely hear any anti British Empire sentiment from them

    But I haven't seen any figures of how many Malaysian/Singaporean Chinese trace their local ancestry as predating the British arrival.
    I suspect not many

    Jack, you’re either shifty or you truly don’t understand what you’re writing. This:

    “Jews are a 2% minority and Blacks are a 13% minority in America – so long as white America had civilizational confidence it was bulletproof against minoritarian thinking.”

    would indicate that you do accept that AD’s “minoritarian thinking” (always of course invidious) is a valid concept. But now you say that it isn’t:

    ““Minoritarian” thinking is AD’s terminology for the whole Woke-Industrial complex, not mine.”

    Yeah, I know that, but yes or no? You use it in one sentence only to dismiss it in the next.

    Which is it?

    About Israel, gimme a break, although I think it’s rather an insult to Israel to compare it with the fake “Republic of Afghanistan, but whatever.

    The diplomatic cover that the US gives Israel has been invaluable and Israel is now officially a part of the Belt And Road Initiative. Don’t you think that Israel owes the US a bit of consideration? You’re saying that Israel can’t trust the US – what the fuck has the US been to Israel since 1948 but THE indispensable ally? We’ve supported them through thick and thin except for Suez, which was such an crime Eisenhower had to call them on it. Israel owes the US. The US doesn’t owe Israel.

    We do agree that the US is a society in rapid decline, although I think that your ascribing the blame to the stupid kids in the pictures is cranky and idiotic. The military industrial complex are the real culprits.
