Let's not go nuclear yet.

Nice thought, but Russia will not do anything of the kind. First, because its reputation for honest dealing is far more valuable than anything it might gain. Second - and more important - because Russia actually is an honest dealer and does not break its promises.

Putin knows who's behind this.

He's very patient with Germany and the rest of Europe because he knows it's the Jewish Zionist/Neocons in the US and Apartheid Israhell who are behind the conflict.

Russia may well shut the gas off but the bear will give plenty of warning.

Russia is losing everywhere in the world.

Putin knows it and that's why Putin is so angry.

Many people who dislike American foreign policy have as a result become knee-jerk pro-Russian.

That's is absurd logic.

The blue whale brain is several times larger than a human brain, apparently we need to hire blue whales ghostwrite all our public articles.

In reality you have to correct for brain size relative to total body size. Further, the correction factor isn't linear.

Nevertheless it's true that essentially all intellectual activity is male. Even if you buy the Regressive Inquisition's memes about female contribution, it only proves they're not contributing. Women discovered one (1) element, whereas men discovered the other 117. Sorry ladies, you weren't needed. This might be a bell curve / standard deviation thing, but it smells like some deep-seated, biologically-rooted psychology.

It makes evolutionary sense. Men need to impress women to have babies, or at least the womens' fathers. Women just need to show up, maybe not entirely neglect the baby. A woman engaging in science seriously is merely finding new and exciting ways to neglect the baby, so...

Another difference is that the Chinese tell the truth-it is a virtue prized for millennia. In the West by total contrast, lying in public life, in the MSM and in business is not just ubiquitous, it is obligatory.The West is run and controlled by Evil psychopaths, and China is not.

The USA was created by Europeans on a land sparsely inhabited by nomadic tribes. It evolved into and achieved high affluence predominantly guided by adherence to Christian values and individual freedom. As those pillars of success are now discarded, so is the success and admiration.

a) Unexpected dark side of matriarch - so far highly polemical area.
b) Unfavorably changing composition of the grip on political power as shown by the present Politburo:

I am surprised that the smart folks around here haven't figured out yet.

America is in the early stages of totalitarianism.

The best way to understand that is how prisoners of war are treated when they are first captured.

To break them down the captors try to confuse the prisoners in a variety of ways.

Good cop, bad cop.

Contradictory instructions.

Insane demands.

Wild propaganda claims.

Then more good cop.

Then demand the prisoners admit their guilt and fault for creating the problem.

This is breaking down the prisoner.

The "crazy" politicians are just trying to break us down so they can have total control over every aspect of our lives.

China has already been through all of that--now that they have obedience to the elites routine propaganda and occasional crushing of dissent is all that is needed.

After the sociopaths break us, then suddenly they will demand we all join together as "proud Americans".

Silly statement. The US has not been a capitalist democracy in some time. Politically it is a corporatist oligarchy, run by sociopathic minoritarians.

All out of AGREEs as usual, but you hit the nail on the head.

China's government isn't perfect--which government is? But almost without fail it looks out for the Chinese people, and concerns itself with advancing their interests.

The government of the so-called USA (or the "ex-USA") is essentially an occupying force, enabling invasions on a truly grand scale and treating the former population like a sworn enemy.

People tell me: oh, they can't be invaders! They don't have guns!

that proscription is socially and even biologically unnatural.
 

They invert reality and those who live in it, or at least try to, are often left dazed and confused. Which is the whole point. It's the crazy-making of narcissistic abuse. It's also extremely immature.

We train ourselves not to live like that. So when we encounter people who do it's understandably disorienting and upsetting. They have no problem with it because they have no conscience. The point is not to be like them, but to know how they think and stop reacting and start responding. But that's easier said then done for a number of reasons. Namtely because most people lack a language for how to respond to them.

There's no quesiton the hostile elite have been at this for a long time, certainly for at least 2,000 years. As Nietzsche put it, How can you put a God on a Cross? Talk about a bold inversion of reality. Could you imagine Zeus or Thor on a Cross? Are you kidding?

Today this kind of Reality Inversion takes the form of
White Replacement Is Automatically and Unconditionally Good!

Of course it isn't. But because so many Whites know nothing of their own tradition, of the Western Tradition, or even of the last 500 years of Western Cultural Life, because they have never developed the intellectual habits of rigorous thinking, consistent reasoning and cautious judgment, they're susceptible to propaganda. In fact, they're completely defenseless against it to the point of equating propaganda with the truth.

No habits of reflective thought leads to automatic belief and the instant conversion of that belief into absolute truth. So they see White Replacement as either non-existent or the answer to all of their problems, whichever serves whatever moment. Sick, Crazy and Stupid. We can put what they're celebrating in a baker's dozen of words:

They're, however, gonna gear up for the next war to make stupid Americans forget about the one we just lost. Iran, most like, since whatshisfuck from Israel is/was here making noises and AIPAC is on the case. I'd like to see Israel start something and get bombed to shit by Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, and any others who lost kids and other relatives come and join the party.

Of course we'd have to go in and rescue them, but maybe not so easy. Of course, if they were "driven into the sea," we'd have to take a zillion Israeli refugees, because six million, so maybe not a good plan. I don't see them using nukes, but anything's possible. On the way out, they might press the button, but not if they wanted to continue living in the neighborhood, and who'd wanna take them in after that? Be worse than Nazi ratlines to South America.

I read James Michner's "Caravans" when I was about 14, and that may be a stupid thing to base predictions on, but I got it right. I knew 20 years ago we were gonna get our asses handed to us, doesn't matter by Taliban or whomever, just that our ass was plopped into the slow-cooker in 2001. The timer just went off, and they stuck a fork in it. As the Afghanis say, "They (USA) have the watches, we (Afghanis) have the time".

We shall see.

Yes, we only hear about the 2.5k US deaths but when you add America's Afghani collaborators, the Taliban had a kill ratio of about 1:1 despite of their massive disadvantage in resources. Most are saying that Ghani's army never had any intention to fight because they never bought in to the new system but an alternative explanation could be that they knew that without US support, they would get crushed.

"why is he ignored?" Because even today, most people have not heard of him. Probably because he burned out almost at the start. But not to worry, the crazy diamond will always shine on in the minds of Floydphiles, Given that Barrett wasn't around to contribute to 70s Floyd, it's fair to give a lot of credit to Waters for the creativity. Not to downplay the talents of Gilmour, Wright and Mason, of course.

Syd Barrett is ignored because of the demolition job done on him by EMI, with the collusion of the young Roger Waters, who was always, and still is, jealous of Syd Barrett. Syd Barrett still remains the true star, and always will. Syd was lucky he wasn't murdered, like so many of the White geniuses of the Sixties music scene. Syd was not an "acid casualty", that is the smear used to justify his ousting from Pink Floyd. Syd's solo work was brilliant. My favorite story of Syd Barrett is told my a studio tech who worked on one of the '70's Floyd albums. Syd came to the studio to do a guitar solo for the album. The tech said Syd started to play and it sounded totally fucked up, the tech said he thought OMG, the stories are all true, Syd really is insane. Then Syd finished playing, he looked up with a sly smile and simply said "Turn over the tape." As the tech stated in the interview, "And that's the solo you hear on the album." For those who don't know about magnetic tape recording, by turning over the tape reel, the machine plays the tape backwards.

I assume this is because of the Afghan failure to recognise how clever and successful the USA is.

From my April 2020 article:

Consider, for example, the Tiananmen Square Massacre, which every June 4th still evokes an annual wave of harsh condemnations in the news and opinion pages of our leading national newspapers. I had never originally doubted those facts, but a year or two ago I happened to come across a short article by journalist Jay Matthews entitled “The Myth of Tiananmen” that completely upended that apparent reality.

According to Matthews the infamous massacre had likely never happened, but was merely a media artifact produced by confused Western reporters and dishonest propaganda, a mistaken belief that had quickly become embedded in our standard media storyline, endlessly repeated by so many ignorant journalists that they all eventually believed it to be true. Instead, as near as could be determined, the protesting students had all left Tiananmen Square peacefully, just as the Chinese government had always maintained. Indeed, leading newspapers such as the New York Times and the Washington Post had occasionally acknowledged these facts over the years, but usually buried those scanty admissions so deep in their stories that few had ever noticed. Meanwhile, the bulk of the mainstream media had fallen for an apparent hoax.

Matthews himself had been the Beijing Bureau Chief of the Washington Post, personally covering the protests at the time, and his article appeared in the Columbia Journalism Review, our most prestigious venue for media criticism. This authoritative analysis containing such explosive conclusions was first published in 1998, and I find it difficult to believe that many reporters or editors covering China have remained ignorant of this information, yet the impact has been absolutely nil. For over twenty years virtually every mainstream media account I have read has continued to promote the Tiananmen Square Massacre Hoax, usually implicitly but sometimes explicitly.

Speaking of overreaction, I'm reminded of something Nietzsche once said.

Whenever anyone overracts it means they're lying to themselves about something.

The obvious takeaway from all of this is that, though the hostile elite are good at infiltration, subversion, destruction and all the rest, they're no good at social management. Just about everything they say and do is designed to conceal this fact. But, as they themselves used to like to say in the 60's The whole world is watching.

We’ve not yet given up on Aristotle‘s logic, but we have, for better or worse, moved on from Trump’s Presidency.
 

Bertrand Russell on Aristotelian logic:

“...the beginner in logic is still taught the doctrine of the syllogism, which is useless and complicated. If you wish to become a logician, there is one piece of advice which I cannot urge too strongly, and that is: Do NOT learn the traditional formal logic. In Aristotle's day it was a creditable effort, but so was the Ptolemaic astronomy. To teach either in the present day is a ridiculous piece of antiquarianism."

--Russell, Bertrand. "The Art of Drawing Inferences." The Art of Philosophizing and other essays. (New York: Philosophical Library), 1968
 

Geach rejected the Aristotelian logic of terms—terms being items capable of being a subject in one proposition and a predicate in another. Aristotle, Geach said, was logic’s Adam, and the doctrine of terms was his Fall. Aristotle’s logic is fundamentally flawed due to this two-name theory of predication.

It’s puzzling that someone like Derb who fancies himself as amateur mathematician would be so ignorant about the field of logic.
