I know about AA….i was speaking in the hypothetical where its not as issue. Sprry for the vagueness.

I don’t keep track of UK politics much but didn’t Jeremy Corbyn openly come out as both anti Israel & also said he was anti white?

Called for giving houses away to immigrants or some such for free?? If so I’m not shocked he lost his ass….imagine you’re working poor & staying in govt housing and they come along to give Ackmed your house you worked for and you jave kids and elderly parents living with you….yeah….

A key measure of Americanization is the number of foreign undergrads in universities. Down from China, but up in other major countries.

Recent data tracking use of the Common App at 900 US higher education institutions showed an 18% decline in undergraduate applications from China for fall 2021, with increased applications from other major sending countries such as India (up 28%) and Brazil (up 41%), the report notes.

Maybe elements of Biden’s administration are paid agents or spies for India or the Chi Coms…….maybe this is them activating their operatives to steal intellectual property…..

As they said in Kill Bill….they had it coming…

Glenn Beck was going on about this yesterday morning. I did agree with him that if Biden allows this then the corporate types will clam up even more & become even more distrustful than they are now….

I was wondering the same thing.

A former church friend who’s probably 60ish now told me a story once about how he worked for a computer firm in Denver in the 90s & early 2000s….1 time he came in and saw his coworkers training their Hindu replacements…..who would be flown back to India…..

He cashed out & invested in a restaurant and rental properties…..

Should we do this with federal employees?

We, kimosabe?

Boomers are so cute when they pretend their government is a VFW chapter.

.i got into an argument with a Uber driver once…..well a friendly argument about how Uber was a bubble…..and the driver made a point….”its just an app…..they can make money anyway so long as the app works….

Decentralization works well for a few internet hustlers…..not so much for most other average people & middle men etc

A lot of the libertarian types are dumb like this….white supremacist types too….think how much more these jobs pay than over hyped private sector nonsense….

Ronald Reagan has a quote attributed to him: “the best minds aren’t in govt….if they were business would steal them away….”

Maybe in a few scenarios….from what I’ve seen though in large parts of the country its far far more about “who you know” than “what you know”…..good old boy networks & that crap. I’ve been passed over for other stupid reasons….like the boss wanting youngish semi attractive to hot 18 to 35 yr old females as his asst. managers to help satiate his mid life insecurities thinking he’s creating his version of Charlie’s Angels….

If white Americans were smart they’d take over the civil service as make work jobs for their friends & family.

Trust me, govt jobs like postal jobs, goldbricker VA jobs etc pay AT LEAST double most back breaking laborious private sector jobs PLUS have Cadillac plated dental/medical/pension benefits….govt jobs are sweet.

Instead of taking them over most libertarian types whine about minorities taking their jobs……lemme tell you from experience….the private sector is very overrated…..its why for instance even STEM professors will tell you about the glories of the private sector but squirm if you talk about taking away their professorship sinecure that usually pays high 5 figures to low 6 figures…..

The private sector may snap up the best & brightest here and there but the private sector is largely overrated…..and the pay not so impressive…..even for STEM jobs….

As Whiskey correctly noted…she HATES HATES HATES Bill for being beta….

I’m a large man who easily can be mistaken for a bouncer or guard of some sort. I won’t say BMI is racist but i do think it is flawed as everything from body type to ethnicity to metabolism affects BMI and weight….i can testify from experience what many doctors consider normal weight for my demo is utter nonsense….not even taking into account muscle mass etc

A local “iheartradio” station(a national radio company i think….) in my local market was peddling a conspiracy theory podcast about that dude getting assassinated.

It actually sounded interesting…..i wanted to listen to it but i could never find it. Some modern day investigative reporter is claiming the plane was bombed…..i assume we’re talking about the same incident….

I’m also assuming the CIA was involved….

Are there even that many blacks left in L.A.?

A lotta posters here don’t like blacks…..perhaps for justifiable reasons. I grew up around many and many are salt of the earth types….blue collar church people…..at least in the south.

Youngish black dudes are real nerdy…..into comics/anime/video games etc so i connect with many of them on that level.

I think as a whole they’ve gotten their fertility issue under control so now they’re working on 1 thing at a time.

Sadly with automation and inflation and deflation they’re going to be hardest hit….

I thought the ventilators and ICU beds were designed precisely for the purpose of separating Boomers from as much cash as possible in the last weeks of their lives.

A considerable amount of my peers have gotten inheritances in recent years and are now seen with sizeable homes, new sub-$100,000 cars, you name it. Many have just opted out of formal work ever again. It’s like, why bother? And especially for the men with how awful office environments are where women and HR completely dominate the scene.

Good for them. Most work nowadays is bullshit.

This.

And in large parts of the country where all the factories are gone and the mills shuttered your options are(I’m serious)……hang out by the interstate freeway with a beggar sign or some variation of fast food or gas station or motel service work…..

Even jobs that pay say 5 bux over minimum wage are highly competitive…..and the hispanics have taken over ALL the building trades……

Those Boomers………………They’re special…………….so special:

I recall NY day 5 years ago when i still lived in the hood…..

The gunfire was worse than the fireworks…..i stayed inside…..

Btw….do you think NFTs are some kinda …..i guess Silicon Valley maybe Hindu and/or other Asian organized crime moving money to…..Singapore? Switzerland?

That reminds me of 2 things….1….the film “The Room”……i recall several people talking about how the original cast didn’t understand how the film got made or where the foreign dude got his money for the budget from…..they assumed it was some kinda weird Eastern European mob money laundering thing…..

Then there’s my old manager…..i worked once as a prep cook & a dishwasher at this Asian guy’s cajun slash seafood restaurant….in the same strip mall he also owned a low rent club and cbd shop.

Anyway he always seemed to be top heavy with his staff & was weirdly chill about how his restaurant was run. I think he was Vietnamese…..anyway his club frequently featured wannabe Vietnamese rapper shows & the like….

Anyway he’d sit there at his bar ALL DAY and sip cocktails and watch the football games…..anyway 1 time i expressed concern about his Lexus being in trouble to which he said “….its just a dumb car…..”

Being in the restaurant business in different sub sectors there of for 20 odd years i know how cutthroat it is and i was baffled that he had such a laid back attitude to restaurant management….

He never paid me via check but with cash…..under the table and the 1 time he did pay me with a check it was a business acct. check from his bank…..not a payroll check….it bounced….when i confronted him he pulled out a “roll” of cash….probably 10k or more and gave me 300$….50$ more for my trouble & wink wink to keep it quiet….

I could never figure him out at the time but now i think his cbd shop and other businesses were some kinda money laundering front for his Vietnamese mafia stuff.

He was a cool dude & treated me well so i didn’t ask too many questions and didn’t stick my nose where it didn’t belong…..

Btw thanx for both the explanation and also the book recommendation…..do you see 2000s type Japanese deflation or Argentinean inflation on the horizion….?

Yea but if you psych tested all mothers to be 90+% would come back as bipolar and the other tenth worse….schizos & serial killers and suicidal junkies and such…..

Young men today are rather effeminate. Can’t seem to do even the slightest of physical labor. Maybe it is due to both the Single Mommy Monster and declining testosterone. Oddly the black boys from SMS goes violent despite all their prettiness, but the white kids go all suicidal. Now the latter explains the censorship support thing. It is pass time to do a mandatory psych evaluation on all expectant mothers. It is also pass time to do mandatory paternity testing at birth, and charge women with fraud if they lie. Finally we have more than enough evidence to suggest men should get full custody of their children unless they is a convicted criminal who has served jail time. Watch prison reform die.

Single mothers are ruining this country. They ruined the black ghettos by not parenting children who turn into feral predators. Their constant quest for attention and pity has created the Munchausen-by-proxy-fueled epidemic of prepubescent transexualism. They fell for the CIA psyop that got Biden elected. Terrible, nasty people.

Twats . Early on in nursing school I learned that anytime a female was feeling at a loss for a rational response to any suggestion that she was responding inappropriately to a particular situation she would say “don’t yell at me” regardless of the fact that she was the only one raising her voice . Immediately the other girls would cluster around and begin to attack the offender , usually me . It made me think of white blood cells attacking a foreign invader . Pretty effective really it immediately puts the subject on the defensive and the only option is retreat . I wish I had a dime for every time I’ve heard that BS.
A few years ago as I exited my car in a parking lot my door gently touched the side of the car next to me . There was a guy sitting in the drivers seat and he looked up I said “it’s ok there’s no damage done” . He jumped out of his car and ran around to confront me . I knew it was all bluster and the “don’t yell at me” thing popped into my head . I just said “don’t raise your voice to me” it worked like a charm . As he was denying raising his voice which he really wasn’t I gave him a dismissive wave of my hand and went about my business . Those bitches are full of tricks .

And this, ladies, is why you earn less than men.
Sometimes you have to be told bluntly “you’re screwing up” without regard to feelings.

Feminism: Putting the dog into dogma.

Whiskeys dead right.

People laugh at him to their own detriment…..

As for young males…..thats from 30 yrs of single moms cucking their sons and in some scary instances doping them up because they can’t “deal with them…..”

Aka in between getting drunk & high and doing drugs while having sex with an ever expanding coterie of black men they have their child’s pediatrician give their sons Ritalin or some such to suppress their testosterone…..

My dad has an older early 2010s Lexus SUV some used car salesman offloaded on him….it takes the expensive gasoline…..& the gas mileage is horrendous….think 15 mpg…..Toyota really scams people into buying these pos….

Regular Toyotas last longer & perform much better…..

You’re about half a yr older than me then….i wish i was you. My parents will leave me nothing but debts & the cost of burying them….in my mother’s case…..shes getting cremated per het wishes…

Can someone explain to me what an NFT is and how to make 1 and i presume bring it to market?

Anyway in the last 2 yrs: my father…..early 60s threw in the towel and got his SSI…

…..my aunty died…..mid 50s of cancer…..my mother’s 2nd husband died last fall…..heart attack….late 50s…..both were heavy smokers and drinkers for extended parts of their lives….

My mom’s best friend passed 2 months ago….smoking….

My mother in law….just retired at 60 as a bus driver for the local bus service….her 4th hubby just died & she inherited his house & will be getting his SS survivor benefits…..my best friend and his mom had lunch with me 2 weeks ago….same thing…..retiring at 60 as a librarian at a Catholic school….her 1st hubby died 25 yrs ago in the service….collecting his benefits….

A coworker of mine is 61….her 2 siblings died in the last yr…..said shes had enough…..told me come October she’s retiring & taking her SS…..

For some reason a lotta random people i know are retiring & dying all at once….

I hope you know that the original was vastly superior, though (naturally) made in very much another place and another time.

https://www.the-sun.com/news/2810632/petition-demanding-stimulus-checks-signatures/

Now there’s a growing movement(and petition) that wants mandatory $2k checks to everyone…..aka UBI….

Bush Jr. is at fault for this sh-t because once you pick & choose who you bail out(Wall St. megabanks & Big Auto via TARP cash & as Bloomberg discovered about 10 years ago secret multi TRILLION dollar loans) and who you do not bail out(average joes who got foreclosed on, Circuit City, Linens & Things etc)

When you bail 1 party out you gotta bail everybody out as the principle goes….

A local retirement slash financial advisor has a FM local radio show i listen to on occassion…..he was talking about how his “higher estimates” for govt debt under Biden had already been blown past…..and said “it scared him…..”

Now they gotta bail EVERYBODY OUT…..

If they do this 2k a month im quitting my job….theres no point working & going grey before my time from the added stress….

I wish it was still winter. I hate the warmer months in the south…..snakes, hurricanes, lightning storms and flesh eating bacteria galore…..ill pass…..

Omg! Im so hawt! Life is soooooo unfair!!!!

I love that movie…..and the character in it “The General”…..that film was true dark humor….

https://www.google.com/amp/s/techxplore.com/news/2021-04-taiwan-worst-drought-decades-deepens.amp

There is a shortage of chips per articles I’ve read because Taiwan is a big supplier and a drought there is affecting hydro power usage rates or some such….

Somebody w more a background in this field please break this down better thab i can plz……

You’re just mad because all the hot cosplay girls come to our anime cons and flirt with us and spurn your 3rd rate neckbeard d&d con brah. Get over yourself.

Steve’s hustling for dat hormone blocker surgery……

J/k brah. I’ll try to send you a money order.

Litigation may be the answer…..its how the SPLC types destroyed the KKK & how the vote machine companies are silencing Republican criticisms…..

I keep laughing at the descriptions of the white guys @ the airport…..”soyboys”, “shrill”, “high pitched”, “like women”…..aka cucks…..beta or worse…..zeta males….

The effete and useless soyboy’s interjections are perfect. Does anybody doubt that even as late as 20 or 30 years ago the few ordinary white men in the airport might have been capable of stepping in and breaking up a fight? Now it’s just carping from the sidelines like a woman.

My local pawn shop is slap sold out of every gun save 1500$ long guns out of most budget ranges….they did have 5 or 6 derrengers…..

I picked up a .38 Cobra 2 shot break action for $150 w a REALLY hard trigger pull….but hey man run out of .40s and you pull it out and blast any home invader in the face his buddies may just turn and run….could save your life…..just an idea….

It’s just so… perfect. Starting with the sign.

The World Star Hip Hop brawl… The weak, lisping “Stop it, stop it, this is an airport”… The masks… Everyone holding up the phones… the total absence of law or order… “You’re going to get in trouble guys.”

Over the past several days, Tweets with embedded videos of Blacks behaving badly, the videos do not play, just a message, “The media could not be played” . Hmmm.

There could also be the abortion factor. Violent crime rates began to steadily decline starting in the mid-late 90s which would also coincide with the prime crime age that would-be thugs and criminals born in the mid 70s would be committing them – except they were never born.

Another factor could be that some states, like CA implemented tough “3-strikes” type laws in the 90s that plucked “career criminals” off the streets for extended stays behind bars.

There’s probably a finite percentage of any population who are disposed to violent crime and more criminal types than before were being plucked out of society for extended periods with these tougher strikes laws. But this is steadily being undone by the social justice lobbyists.

Much of the long-term decline in homicide can be attributed to the following factors.

1. Population aging.
2. Helicopter parenting.
3. Screens/devices keeping young people at home.
4. Strict laws against loitering, joyriding, loud house parties, and youth curfew violations.

Lots of homicides used to take place when young people congregated together somewhere. Somebody often got into a fight with someone else. Or perhaps insults were traded, leading to a later confrontation.

Nowadays, young people have more difficulty congregating together anywhere, due to strict rules, controlling parents, vigilant cops, annoyed business owners, etc. A lot of young people don’t even want to go out, preferring to stare at their phone or watch NetFlix.

So lots of potential social interactions never take place. That’s a big factor in the fall in the homicide rate. It’s also a big factor in the fall in the teen pregnancy rate.

Highly supervised “pod” kids can’t kill each other, get arrested, or have sex.

I can only speak for me but as a Japanophile and anime nerd i do hope thats true…

Whiskey was right. The “Curse of the Nice White Ladies….”

Same reason they want refugees here…..easy laid back high paid(in comparison to private sector)…..so they can have a comfy goldbricker job while at the same time think they’re “changing the world for the better…..”

Or some such.

Wasnt Don Cherry some mob associate on the Sopranos or a mob movie?

I would imagine Kamala & the Hindu lobby that punches above its weight and runs say the hotel industry & large swathes of Silicon Valley are going to have something to say about it…..

Steve is this you feeling all low-T & unappreciated so now you’re coming out as late life M2F trans?

Steve has posited that blacks sort of just want to “be left alone by police while they exist in a parallel society” of sorts.

Let em…..

Let the cops do drive bys and wave.

Or as Rahm put it….theyll “go fetal”….

Hey the police don’t care….they still get their paycheck & pension.

If Lasheaka and Tamaria want to get into an undisturbed knife fight…..let them maybe?

If LeBron cares so much about the fallout let him use his millions to hire social workers or “community activists” or whatever to clean up the mess…..but stop asking me to pay for it via more cops and prisons/more welfare etc

Interesting that this area doesn’t look anything like a ghetto. It seems like a clean and prosperous area, yet the blacks still behave like this.

The cop should have let the stabbing happen and try to physically restrain the girl after. That way, it seems like he’s trying to stop it, and he’s not putting his own life at risk by shooting a black. It baffles me why any cop would shoot at a black unless their own life were in imminent danger.

Just because someone likes Asians doesn’t mean they can’t like blondes too….

Didn’t the Watergate people smear LSD onto a guys steering wheel to make him manic and crash? I think Gordon Liddy mentioned that….

OT:

Google Derek Chauvins now ex wife. She is a Hmong…..she did a beauty queen contest in her 40s….man asian women age good…

If i were a movie director I’d want to work with LeBeouf…..hes the Nicholson of his generation…..

Wow, another black dude with a White wife. Who ever saw that coming?

I googled him 2 or 3 days ago…..weird you’d bring him up.

His family swears he had a drug problem but he claimed in the days & weeks before he died that:

1) “Somebody”(aka spooks) were messing with his car and that he was under investigation by the FBI….which posthumously claimed he was NOT under investigation…..

2) ….former Counter Terrorism czar Richard Clarke suspects he was murdered….who also formally accused former CIA Director George Tenet of foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks.

3) i dunno why Hastings was killed and who’s leg he was sniffing on for a scoop but I’m sure he was murdered and killed by Deep State parasites….either by the usual suspects or the work was “farmed out” to the Brits etc

I do know 1 thing though…..now that Greenwald and Taibibi are either voluntarily neutered or in semi hiding to avoid neocon Deep State prosecution….Hastings probably truly was the last “true investigative reporter we’ll ever see…..

https://www.nytimes.com/1983/11/02/us/bomb-carrier-in-us-home-prompts-tightened-security.html

Steve have you ever heard of this?

With all this talk of late about storming the capital and listing the attacks on it by both leftist and rightest and foreign attacks on the Capitol….

Anyway online there are scant mentions of this but in 1983 a mentally ill Israeli would be suicide bomber tried to blow up the Capitol building….he was swiftly arrested and then very quietly deported to Israel where i assume he remains “in a mental hospital….

If you watch the Tom Cruise film “Collateral” you noticec2 things:

1) in 2003 Los Angeles per a scene in the movie gas prices were $1.70~ per gallon….LA being more expensive than other parts of the country….proves thr 2$ per gallon nonsense is a total Bush inspired neocon myth but that’s off-topic…..

2) if you watch that movie’s making-of on the DVD they show Tom Cruise being taught by an ex LEO firearms instructor to “put patterns on his target”…..

In the film this meant 2 in the chest sternum area & 1 in the head….the chest shots were inches a part…..cops are similarly taught to “put patterns on” armed suspects during training…..

Investigative journalists are a dead breed….Greenwald and the dude who got burned up in the wreck in L.A. after he did the Stanley McCrystal hit piece that made the spooks heroin control operations in Afghanistan were the last of their breed….

Anyway wasnt this Sicknick guy cremated before anything could be done to verify cause of death?

The white trash women in Florida as Jason Alexander has noted…..”are really hot…..”

I agree with what you said otherwise to a point….i hate humidity….

The weird part about this in-sniping going on is…..i get the impression most of us are too busy working & sleeping to watch as the various conquerer groups…..Islam in Europe and Asians and latinos here…..take over and eventually put these various loudmouths to the sword…..

Yep….Laplace/NOLA/Baton Rouge too….

I don’t think this is any measurable increase in the number of mass shootings….just Biden trying to maximize popular opinion on a mass scale……

Hey Steve shaved his hobo beard off so nobody would think down on him as he jangled his beggar cup.

Leave Steve alone…..its this or he takes a part time job as a Walmart old person greeter to pay the power bill…..

He’s right. The question is whether Whites will still keep considering themselves “American” or something else as we are more and more despised in what was our country but no longer is and never will be.

It’s not our country anymore. Time to move on.

Btw, I’m more than happy to hear how Citizenism will win the day.

Chopra?

Wtf is he going to do? Chant away the virus with his quasi Hindu nonsense?

JW,

Did you see that the FBI is leading the narrative in the Indianapolis shooting?
They immediately acknowledged that they were notified by the Indianapolis PD because of police concerns about un “items” (which the FBI refused to identify) were found in Hole’s bedroom.
The FBI then claimed that they found no evidence of either a crime or a “racially motivated ideology.”
The police then housed Hole in a temporary mental facility because Hole’s mother feared he would commit “suicide by cop.”
The shotgun taken from Hole’s house in 2020 was never returned, yet somehow, this mentally unstable young man, known to both local and federal law enforcement, then got his hands on a separate long gun -seemingly in violation of existing laws- and apparently murdered eight people before shooting himself.
Yet another “lone wolf” shooter (for mysterious reasons) turns out to have files with not only the local police, but the feds.

Huh.

No pattern here . . .

And the type of weapon he used just happens to fill the need to provide “evidence” that such weapons should be banned.

And, he’s dead. So no uncomfortable questions can be asked about any further contact he had with law enforcement enforcement at any level, especially the feds.

Why aren’t any local politicians much less the governor of SC standing up to this guy….

Not even saying throw the book at the black dude…..just let the Sgt off the hook…..

Who/whom.

It’s fucking over. The only way out is not something we can even talk about. Plus, it won’t happen. As I say, it’s over, people. Make your plans, and rejoice only in the knowledge that after were are dead and gone, those lesser creatures who are being shepherded in to REPLACE us will live forever in a brown sewer without us.

It’s no joke. It’s obvious now. The only alternative to this future is very bloody, very violent, and it results in a regression to ancient times before all the modern comforts our people came to take for granted.

Maybe that will happen, but I doubt any of us here will be around to find out. You should thank God for that.

Of course it’s Utah, home of Egghead McMuffin, nation of Willard Romney: the Mormons have never been American. They were never persecuted. They fled to the desert because they took over a town and tried to impose Mormon sharia on non-Mormons with glorious and shall not be infringed results.

So in other words…..the pedophiles in power are running a shadow campaign to legalize pedophilia via caselaw and precedent etc….

If you google “hijack radioactive” youll see old boneheaded instances of thos happening in Mexico of all places……its happened here as well, fwiw….

I’ve noted before how female cops scare the hell out of me…..mainly because theyre gunhappy….

There’s a video out there from 2012ish where a female cop is tazing some old white dude with a ponytail……hes writhing on the ground in pain screaming…..she keeps screaming DON’T RESIST…..

This incident reinforces my previous beliefs…..

I do have a daughter. I actually more than likely agree with you.

I wasn’t attacking “innocent” women but rather the types falling over themselves seeking attention with 2 or 3 social media accounts with bikini pics falling out of them…..and/or the ones who walk around with crotch level shorts or pants so tight they show your body orifices & that would be the attire strippers wear.

Those were the sorts of women in the article cited complaining about harassment etc.

They like the sexual attention…..but only when it is from the “right men”……not ugly or beta types…..

Because NEETs & Japanese stagnation?

Arigato Hideki-chan!!

*woman walks into room full of men talking serious dry stuff like cars or business logistics etc*

LETS TALK ABOUT MY HAIR! I NEED ATTENTION! PAY ATTENTION TO ME!

He was a good rapper. Drama too….late 90s were a good time for hip hop….

Is there a way to have the Likud deal w these people?

You think the victims have grounds to litigate the NFL?

A news article i read said he didn’t drink or abuse drugs……you got a source?

That would make sense though…..wacked out pillhead freaks out when his fix gets cut off…..

Teen girls complain about sexual harassment…..f em i say…..bring on the burqa already so i dont have to listen to this crap any more…..

You have to keep in mind the US maintains vast air, sea and land forces in addition to subforces that would constitute armies of their own like the marines. In addition to a heavy deployment schedule overseas and overseas bases. Not to mention the cost of it’s vast nuclear arsenal and general R&D for new weapons systems. And a lot of military assets come in discrete chunks that may not be viable at a particular scale or budget. US military spending is insane.

Most countries are also defending against a single probable war scenario and so will tend to invest in a way to best fight it rather than assets which are of little use. For example, the Armenian government came under criticism for it’s purchase of some air superiority fighters from Russia in 2019 given that it could only afford so few that they would be effectively useless (In any event there is debate as to whether Armenia actually had yet bought and received any missiles or bombs for the planes) against Azerbaijan and constitute a blow to Armenian morale and boost to Azeri morale if they were deployed and subsequently shot down. (They sat out the war) Investing that money into more artillery or even anti-material sniper rifles would have been much more worth it.

As a counterpoint, several countries are now building large aircraft carriers. Historically there have been plenty of lulls before rearmament. The locus of industrial warfare in the 20th century, Europe, has seen it’s great powers enter a situation where war between any combination of them is unthinkable and undesirable. However, meanwhile, in the Middle East, Indian Subcontinent and East Asia…

But right now the very same neoliberal world order that has proven so fatal to the West is also largely suppressing any large scale warfare or logic for large scale warfare for a variety of reasons.

I would encourage skepticism from anything emanating from the CIA.

Ask yourself, is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other emirates more or less secure from attack by Iran?

Less. The Iranians have even sent drone strikes against refineries and pipelines. That seems certain to escalate.

India. Is India more or less secure from the Chinese who have ambitions to take the Himalayan Watershed and use it in China?

Less. The Indians and Chinese fought a mini war up on a glacier last Summer. Seem prepping for that now.

Taiwan. Is it more or less vulnerable to attack and conquest from China. Less, obviously.

South Korea, is it more or less vulnerable to attack and conquest from North Korea. Obviouly, it is more vulnerable than before. Given the Chinese umbrella over North Korea and China owning Biden. And son of big guy.

South America seems in a down cycle, for now, in insurgencies. Africa is by contrast on an up cycle, with rebellions (and US troops) in: Chad, Mali, Niger, the Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Ethiopia (Tigray), Western Sahara, Libya, and probably a bunch of others. Their spending is likely to be more small arms and transport but its likely up and also likely off the books.

Southeast Asia? Everyone is scared of the Chinese, and is building up their military: Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Malaysia in particular. Japan is having a build up, they have a whole bunch of new naval vessels and new fighter planes. Off the books no doubt.

Ukraine, they certainly seem ready for a fight with Russia. Which is also ready for one. China spends a LOT on their military, and almost none of it is on the books.

None of this passes the smell test. And its from the CIA. Always wrong, never in doubt.

High school goofs making internet memes is now national news?

Why did Gamestop go up or down? I sided with the market vigilantes on that 1 but let’s get real here…..does any stock valuations make sense at this point? Tesla worth more than Toyota?

Oh please…..

I call them Bushvilles or BushBurbs after Dubyas mighty screwup in 08…..

have you noticed how much stuff the homeless own these days?

Hoovervilles. Many of these people in SoCal had homes until recently and are not the classic itinerants people associate with the word ‘homeless’. They sometimes have jobs or erratic work and simply can’t afford anywhere to live or are trying to save up some money.

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

In the 1920s the existence of this social collapse was cause for huge outrage, in the 2020s the collapse is accepted.
