Mis-underestimating the majority (the dictionary of George W Bush)

It is a big mistake to equate the Trump Presidency with the people who have always been there.  Before Trump ever rode down the escalator in 2015, there were people willing and ready to go to the mat to reverse the damage the Obama administration had inflicted on the American People.  Trump didn’t inspire this.  Those people were always there, angry, ready for some method, some means, some person to reverse the damage.

Recall  the 2016 election season.  Some in my own family didn’t vote for Trump, yet they are as conservative as I am.  They were Cruzers.  Full on unchanging Ted Cruz supporters. Or they were Rubio supporters. They were angry, ready to turn around what they saw as an aberration in our government headed by a man with evil in his heart.  Barack Obama.

Later in 2016 as the nomination of Trump was secured, most of them came to accept his presence.  Some of us, including me early on, were not sure this was good. I was dubious for a long time. Many reading this have shoved the down my throat.  I accept it. 

I recall many so called republicans who ran from Trump by the pussy grab scandal that happened just before the election of 2016.  Our local representative at the time in District 14 disavowed Trump.  I’m talking a couple weeks before the vote.  Those people are still there, we see them in office.  Randy Hultgren was that man, he was defeated, those repeating the mistake will be defeated.  It wasn’t at that point about Trump, it was about not having Hillary Clinton as President.  I don’t know what Hultgren was thinking.  Did he think by disavowing Trump he would somehow endear himself to democrats? 

Some who did not accept the Trump nomination became “Never Trumpers”.  Some like Ben Shapiro became Sometimes Trumpers.  They supported him in his office after he was elected, but kept an edge in watching him carefully.   Of course many never  Trumpers like the Lincoln Project have become the enemy. 

The election of Trump over Clinton was contentious and some on the left believed fraud was involved.  Not understanding the federal system of the electoral college in a Republic, they kept  hammering the idea that Hillary won the popular vote  and lost the election because of the electoral college.  This resulted in resentment and anger.  Hence the Russians, Russians, Russians hoax.  Four years of constant “not my president” was the result.  It caused the fact that Obama before he left office set up a conspiracy to sabotage Trump.  Spying on him. And for four years the abuse by the left even to a fake impeachment was insane.  They accepted him as much as we will accept Biden. 

Trump hasn’t helped himself.  He is a competent clever businessman playing 3d chess with the opposition as they played checkers.  But he has flaws.  Some is wrapped up in his personality.  I understand that personality.  It is rooted in the world he comes from.  Business not politics.  I live better in that world as does Trump than I do in politics.  If I ran for office, I would be more like Trump.  Not great. Arrogant. All knowing. Bullheaded.  Determined.  Pushing thru.  Yet.. he has been the greatest President in my lifetime.

I have friends who are better at business than they are at politics.  In the world of entrepreneurism a personality like trumps is essential.  When it is big business, the likes of a Jamie Diamond is needed.  It is why when a company is on a growth curve the founders many times step aside or are forced out.  It happened to Steve Jobs.  He was set down for a season.  We forget that. Trump is that kind of man.  It takes a big mouth to make a way when you are going to be successful in business.  You have to be just a little full of Crap. 

With the level of corruption that was in our government in 2017 when Trump was inaugurated he was exactly the right person.  Not a politician.  A bulldozer. A wrecking ball.  More focused on desired results rather than desirable methods.  He wanted to turn around the country.  To make it better.  HE DID. Trump was exactly the right man for the time at the time. 

I won’t start to list all the good things he has done in his 4 years. I’m sure those who despise Trump can list all the bad things he has done, but mostly it is style rather than substance.  Arrogance and his big mouth are his main sins according to those who have turned away from him when they should have stayed strong.  They didn’t.  That says more about them than Trump.  Look at how the surrender monkeys are running for the rat holes (mixing my metaphors) when the chips were down.  Lindsay Graham is the prime example.

Now Biden will come.  Trump is done. Not just done, done done.  Like Clinton was.  But note.  Those who supported Clinton didn’t go away.  She represented what they believe was a stolen election.  She was not nominated, nor even considered because the people making those selections were aware she was toxic.  Sadly because of the actions of a few lawbreakers Trump is now toxic.  The movement is not toxic except to those who fear it.

Biden will be like a bad sequel to a popular TV show.  Friends was followed as a sequal by… can you name it?  There was one.  Seinfeld was followed by..  anyone remember?  Everything Biden tries to do for the next few years will be seen as a second class bad sequel by the population, even on the left.  He doesn’t have it.  Neither does Harris.  There is more here than we know.  Obama and the deep state think they can do what they do by remote control.  Only light can point out this deception and the evil behind it.

What the left and the deep state do not understand is that we were all here BEFORE Trump.  We are still here.  Oh sure there are a few weaker who say we should have had.. or if  someone other than Trump were president for the last four years we could have won this.  They don’t have a name other than a mythical “Anyone but Trump”.  They are like the losers in every company who always hate the boss.  Think they could do better.  But they don’t, they can’t.  They just harp and whine about what he or she is doing.  They hate the arrogance and personality that makes the boss successful.  Of course sometimes that personality stumbles.  They take great joy in seeing them stumble.  Just as they take great joy in seeing Trump’s fall.  It’s loser think.

Trump will exist in our hearts, we will look back on these past four years fondly.  He is going to look far better in the rear view mirror than he ever did during his term.  He will also live in the brain of the left.  They will try at every turn to disparage what Trump accomplished.  They will fail. We remember. Oh there will be some who will be suckered in. He may have been one of the greatest Presidents of my generation. 

You may not recall but the left HATED Reagan.  They called him RAYGUN.  To this day the fact that he did what he did during his 8 years in turning around a failed economy of the 70s from Nixon and Carter has been a sore spot to this day for some.  They hate that he accomplished so much.  Not as much as Trump has.  So they will have to beat the drum.

Do not misunderstand what you see today.  The continued attacks even in the face of essential resignation by Trump, the fact that Pelosi and Schumer and much of the left win fake news is so vindictive is not because they believe the tirades they are spewing, it is because they FEAR Trump.  More important they FEAR those of us who were here before and those who are still here.  We are the 99% born again believers who populated the mall and cheered a couple days ago.  Not the 1% who tarnished the movement by lawlessness.  No one agrees it was a great idea to do what they did.  It was wrong at every level and I condemn it because I am honest.

Look at the hypocrisy of the left.  Now screaming about the events of Wednesday, at the End of May when the rioters were burning the church in DC and trying to occupy the White House, being called by the fake news media “Peaceful Protesters” the secret service was doing all it could to protect our White House.  50+ men and women were injured in the line of duty trying to protect the White House and President Trump.  Some maimed for life. It became so serious that Trump had to retreat to a bunker for safety.  That wasn’t an image anyone was happy about.  The left wing in this country cheered on the rioters and ridiculed the President as a coward for hiding in safety.  Where was their outrage at that time against these lawbreakers?  Of course that isn’t mentioned… Hypocrisy.

What happened in the capital was horrid. The image of that guy feet on the desk in Pelosi’s office must result in his prosecution.  Another image from that day was people filing into the building once the doors were opened and staying inside the velvet ropes as they entered.  Strange image, but true.  The bulk of us are law abiding and stay inside the velvet ropes. We are the majority.

I will say again.  Trump is now an ex President.  He did his best and it was excellent.  The left will never give him the credit due.  They fear him.  So now what?  The MAGA party is here.  It may actually take on a name.. that name may end up being the GOP, Republican.  Or something else. Understand.  On the conservative side, we ARE the majority.  The weak will end up being in that squishy middle called undecided.  The George Bushes of the past are as gone forever.  Trump is gone, but there will be another.  Maybe even better. There is no 2024 for Trump.  Will any Trump scion ever rise again?  Probably not.  But we are not going away.  There are people waiting to assume the mantle.  They will point to what Trump did, and it will be good.  They will also point to a promising new future.  Trumps shoes are big, but we will need BIG in the days to come.  The Democrats have installed a small man.  A very small man.  Like barking dogs they will rant, rave and threaten, but they are like coyotes trying to face down a powerful pride of Lions in our society.  Those of us who understand know that the fight never stops.  It must be fought every time evil is uncovered. 

The Trump era is gone. Now there is a new movement.  It looks like me.  It looks like many of you.  Christian.  Patriotic.  Flag waving.  America Loving.  Tyranny hating.  Family.  Doing right.  Telling the Truth.  Opportunity.  We are emboldened. We have seen what can be accomplished for good.  We have pulled back the curtain on deceit. 

So much of what is wrong in America is Liberal, Democrat, Pagan, immoral and yes evil wrapped around it.  The destruction of the Family, Abortion, Gender, Racism, Communism and Great Reset Globalism. There is no place for compromise with this.  Light cannot and must not compromise with darkness. There is evil in the world. We must never ever allow ourselves to submit to it.  To them.

That’s why they fear us. That’s why they fear Trump.  Not for him alone.  But for the millions that gathered together at rallies as happened Wednesday.  Millions that say, we can’t accept this.  They fear that we are going to stay strong and keep pushing back.   They are right to fear.  Most of us will push back.  There will arise a new figurehead, a new spokesman.  He or she will represent us as they should.  I don’t have a specific name, but I have a few in mind.  Too early to call them out.  2022 is the next challenge.  We have some housecleaning to do first.  That’s our problem now. The howling coyotes are just going to keep howling.  We need to stay steady.

They have mis-underestimated the majority in this country.  We are strong. We are here.  We are a force that must be reckoned with.  They will try to suppress us.  They even are trying to abuse us.  Calls for repression reflecting what has happened in Hong Kong by China are afoot.  It’s not a surprise.  The Chinese are arresting and suppressing freedom at every turn.  It’s working. Do you think for a second the new Chinese administration of Biden won’t try the same thing?  Sadly there are some that were with us as least on the edge during the good times that say, “It can never happen here”. Yes it can.  Stand Strong.

I know this.  As long as we keep our faith in God, Cling to our Bibles and Our Guns, we are going to be feared.  That is good.  Mutually assured destruction.  They know we won’t back down without a fight. Fight we must when the day comes.

Now is the time to attack.  Get our weak representatives to repair the corrupt election system in this country.  Try to transplant some of your spine into them. Attack the evil that exists in Government personified by leaders of the Democrat Party. Attack the evil influence of globalists like Soros and Obama.  Attack the cultural degradation of Black Lives Matter and Antifa. Attack the drip drip drip indoctrination of our school system.  Attack the corrupt Media.  Attack controlling Big Tech.  Attack the corruption that big business has at its core.  There is much to do.  Now we know who we are. So do they. It’s not time to Retreat.  It’s time to attack.  We have men and women capable of being the front line warriors in this fight. They have names.  They have platforms.  Let’s band together and fight beside them.  The war is on.  Yes our leader has been fatally wounded, he won’t be back.  But the movement is still alive. 

When you think of the old Star Wars Movies, this is much like this.  When evil succeeds there is always a force for good willing to risk all to turn back evil.  We are the Force from the good side.  The dark side has force too.. but we are greater.

Don’t give up.  Recognize who the other side is.  They fear us.  They fear what Trump consolidated in us.  They will do all they can in cooperation with the minions in the press to defame you, me and all others who believe as we do.

The litmus test for the fight to come is the credibility of the last corrupt fraudulent election.  There is a continuum.  I won’t quote exact numbers but you know them.  Half of all conservatives are convinced that the election was stolen. A third of all independents and 15% of all democrats.  On one end of the continuum (the minority) are those who think that Biden won fair and square.  At the other end of the continuum are those who think Trump won by a landslide and should have four more years.  Both ends of the continuum are deluded.  We probably haven’t had a fair and free election since 2000.  All efforts to fix it have been manipulated.  The election of 2000 is why we have such great polarity.  The other side never believed GW Bush to be the legitimate President.  Every single election since has been considered fraudulent.  Obama in 2008 was that last uncontested.  2004 was contested terribly. 2012 was contested.  And of course 2016.  This is nothing new.  It must be fixed. It is dividing our country.  OF course it will be difficult.  The democrats are in power due in part to a flawed corrupt election system.

I believe as the majority of Americans do that this election was filled with fraud and corruption. That without that fraud, Trump might possibly be in for four more years.  But Fraud prevailed.  I also now accept that Biden is President, that Trump is not.  We must like the Alamo and the Maine, NEVER EVER Forget what happened here.  Like Lincoln at Gettysburg, we must stand and remember what happened here.

Do not be defeated in your heart.  Right is right. Don’t be fooled.  Don’t buy into the narrative.  Seek Truth.  Stay Steady.  For those that are FOR US are more than those against us.  Now get out there and ATTACK.   Our nation is at risk and all that stands between us and tyranny is us.

God Bless us All and God Bless America.

Things I have learned about money, investment and wealth accumulation

Wealth is health.  Stay well. Take good care of yourself.  Don’t get stupid.  Your health is the most important investment you can make.

 Saving money is good, but money is the result of your work, time and life.  Use it to live too.  Dying with the most money in the bank is foolish.   No one lying on a bed in a nursing home says, “Man, I’m glad we didn’t take that trip to Hawaii we talked about.  I have plenty of money but can’t spend it other than on this nursing home”

 Buying cheap can be expensive.  If you want to buy something, get the best you can afford.  Don’t try to save so much on things you go broke replacing them.

Debt is not your enemy, it is a tool when used well and it is a trap when abused.  Know the difference.  Don’t fear debt, use it wisely, but know when to and when not to.

 Liquidity is the key to wealth building.  He who has the money available to take advantage of a opportune situation will win.  Stay Liquid. Avoid illiquid money traps like: a new car (a 5 year old car is a good investment, new not.  Loses 1/3rd the day after you buy it), paying off your house (your mortgage is deductible and the money you have available is security), costly furniture, expensive remodeling that has no potential for return (that granite top and new bathroom does little to your house’s value) and investments in a businesses without knowing the probable outcome.  Every dollar you don’t put into these things leads to liquidity.

 Don’t invest in things you don’t understand.  Research is your friend.  Don’t go without knowing.  Every con is something you don’t understand well.

 Anything that seems too good to be true probably is, but investigate the opportunity anyway.  Sometimes great deals come along looking like a bag of snakes.  Don’t let doubt keep you from investing, but don’t let greed drive you to lose money.

 Anything you buy that will depreciate quickly might be best bought used or already depreciated.  Equipment, Vehicles, Tools.  A ten year old car fully depreciated in good condition is worth all the money you pay, a brand new off the showroom floor car is worth 1/3rd off the day you buy it.  Be wise.  If you need a tool for a certain job, rental is better than ownership in the long run.  Too many nice power tools sit in the shed seldom used because someone though they could get more use from them than they did.  Rule of thumb, if you rent more than 3 times a year, buy one.

 If a proposed investment pays more than market rates it is probably fraud, dumb or a Ponzi scheme looking for a sucker. There is no free lunch.  None.  When someone tells you they have an investment that guarantees a 7% return every year, that’s a scam.  They are just taking YOUR money and paying it back to you as if it were a return.  Most annuities are this.

 There are priorities in money management.  Use your income to pay down very high interest rate credit cards.  Don’t be in a hurry to pay off low interest rate loans like student loans, car loans (if they are low) or never pay off your house (when you have paid it off 50% refinance, be your own landlord). You need to have at least one year of money set aside as quickly as possible that if something happened, job loss, illness or other catastrophe, you could live on this emergency fund.  In an emergency if you are not working you won’t be able to borrow on your house.  They want to get paid back.  Too many people think a paid off or down house is a good strategy.  Not so much.  It just leaves you cash poor.  The exception to this is if you are wealthy and you have a big security blanket financially, plus investments to the point where you will never suffer, then paying off your house is OK.  Not great.  But OK if it makes you happy.

You need a credit rating and credit history to operate in today’s economy.  Too many people have a great credit rating but no credit history (they always pay cash or pay everything off).  The opposite is true as well.  A bad hiccup in your credit rating will cost you.  Balance is everything.  So if you have no credit history, borrow some money and pay it back over time.  A year is best.  Borrow from two or three sources.  Then when it comes time to buy a house, you have money available.  This is true for people with bad credit.  Borrow some money from a reporting institution.  Set it aside.  Pay if off on time, not ahead of time.  Pay it promptly.  The cost of the loan will be some interest, but that is the price of a credit history.  You need one.

How much do you need for an emergency fund?  What if you lose your job, are hurt or sick. Calculate your total living expense all in. Groceries, Utilities, transportation, all bills times 12.  Then subtract the money you would get in helps if nothing else was deducted.   Social Security, Aid to dependent children, likely gifts and other non work sources.  That’s how much you need. 

If you have a year’s worth, you are in good shape.  Two is better.

To calculate how much you will need to retire at 70.  25 times annual need from above, but if you have are on Medicare, Medicaid, disability, Social Security or have other passive income streams, it will lower the amount you will need.  You won't spend as much when your are older. This can be in the form of an investment like an IRA or 401 K.  Also any assets you have that you might be able to dispose of as time goes on.   

REMEMBER here’s where not paying off your house comes in.  It is not an investment.  If you need the money to live on and you paid off your house, you will need to sell it to recoup the money you paid into the house.  So you end up living in a rental.  If you are retired and have no income you can’t get a home equity loan.  They only lend to people who can pay it off.  Of course there is a reverse mortgage which in fact is a predatory home equity loan.  All bad options if you paid off your home.

Crafted on life's anvil of Experience.

The Light at the end of the Covid Tunnel

 

For those or us in Agriculture we are well familiar with Rapid spread disease in plants and animals. We are good at managing them. So when Covid came along, it was like any other disease moving thru a population.  I found this elementary explanation that might help you and then if you would read my comments at the end if will give you hope for the future:



Epidemics and Pandemics

What is an epidemic? An epidemic is when an unusually large number of people in a community get a disease at the same time. Examples of epidemic diseases include typhus, influenza, the Black Death, malaria, and smallpox.

 

What causes an epidemic?

There are a number of events that can cause an epidemic. Infected food and water - One way an epidemic can begin is if the food or water gets infected with a disease. If the local water supply of a city gets infected, then a number of people of the city will become sick, starting an epidemic.

 

Increased virulence of the disease - Sometimes the pathogen (germ) that causes a disease may change and become more virulent. This means that it can more easily infect people and make them sick.

 

Introduction of a new disease - Many epidemics begin when a new disease is introduced to a population. This occurred when the Europeans brought smallpox to the Americas killing as much as 90% of the native population.

 

Lower resistance to a disease - Sometimes famine and poor nutrition can cause a population to have lower resistance to a disease causing an epidemic.

 

Natural disasters and wars - Natural disasters and wars can trigger the start of epidemics by causing infected water, bringing in new diseases, and lowering the resistance to disease of the population.

 

How does disease spread? Disease can spread and be transmitted a number of ways including the following:

 

Insects - Insects can carry diseases and transmit them from person to person. Examples of insect-borne diseases include the bubonic plague and malaria.

 

Airborne transmission - Infection can also travel through the air, usually when a person coughs or sneezes. Examples of airborne diseases include influenza, measles, and tuberculosis.

 

Foods and water - Some diseases can be spread through infected food or water. Examples include cholera, dysentery, and typhoid fever.

 

How do they end?

Even though epidemics can spread quickly and kill millions of people, they eventually do come to an end. There are different reasons why an epidemic may end:

 

Fewer hosts - When an epidemic first starts out it can attack the weakest and most susceptible people. These people may die or survive. If these people survive they may build up immunities to the disease. Over time, the disease finds fewer and fewer hosts it can easily attack. Eventually the epidemic slows down and comes to an end.

 

Seasonal - Some diseases are seasonal. The flu, for example, is spread more easily during the winter and tends to die out come spring time.

 

Fewer carriers - Sometimes the carriers of the disease may become inactive. An example of this is malaria that is transmitted by mosquitoes. Mosquitoes become inactive during the cold weather or winter.

 

What is a pandemic? A pandemic is an epidemic that has spread across a large region, typically across multiple continents or worldwide.

 

MY COMMENTS:

The note of a difference between an Epidemic and Pandemic is the universality of the disease.  That is why Covid 19 is a Pandemic, a wide spread epidemic.  Not more virulent.

 

By the First of June of next year three things will have happened as outlined above.

 

First as people get sick and develop immunity the Herd becomes more and more immune.  The best way.

 

Second is the fact that the virus kills the most vulnerable until it runs out of people to infect that will die. The fact that very very few people under the age of 50 die and that the bulk who do die are those with comorbidity and age above 60.  That is a finite number.

 

Third is the vaccine.  While not everyone will take it, enough will, I will to very much slow the transmission.  I will confess I am not totally convinced if it’s efficacy, more placebo than protection perhaps, but I’m in. 

 

The three effects, the first two being most important give me confidenct that some level of normalcy will return by June.  How Normal, that depends on you and me.  We can live in fear of one another and never enjoy a hug, wear a mask even if it is not longer a big deal and stay home in stasis of near death.

 

Not for me.  I will live and not die. Live means LIVE!!

When it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and has feathers like a duck, you just might have a duck on your hands. How to spot a cult.. or do we already have one?

A hallmark of totalitarianism is mass conformity to a psychotic official narrative. Not a regular official narrative, like the “Cold War” or the “War on Terror” narratives. A totally delusional official narrative that has little or no connection to reality and that is contradicted by a preponderance of facts.

Nazism and Stalinism are the classic examples, but the phenomenon is better observed in cults and other sub-cultural societal groups. Numerous examples will spring to mind: the Manson family, Jim Jones’ People’s Temple, the Church of Scientology, Heavens Gate, etc., each with its own psychotic official narrative: Helter Skelter, Christian Communism, Xenu and the Galactic Confederacy, and so on.

Looking in from the dominant culture (or back through time in the case of the Nazis), the delusional nature of these official narratives is glaringly obvious to most rational people. What many people fail to understand is that to those who fall prey to them (whether individual cult members or entire totalitarian societies) such narratives do not register as psychotic. On the contrary, they feel entirely normal. Everything in their social “reality” reifies and reaffirms the narrative, and anything that challenges or contradicts it is perceived as an existential threat.

These narratives are invariably paranoid, portraying the cult as threatened or persecuted by an evil enemy or antagonistic force which only unquestioning conformity to the cult’s ideology can save its members from. It makes little difference whether this antagonist is mainstream culture, body thetans, counter-revolutionaries, Jews, or a virus. The point is not the identity of the enemy. The point is the atmosphere of paranoia and hysteria the official narrative generates, which keeps the cult members (or the society) compliant.

In addition to being paranoid, these narratives are often internally inconsistent, illogical, and … well, just completely ridiculous. This does not weaken them, as one might suspect. Actually, it increases their power, as it forces their adherents to attempt to reconcile their inconsistency and irrationality, and in many cases utter absurdity, in order to remain in good standing with the cult. Such reconciliation is of course impossible, and causes the cult members’ minds to short circuit and abandon any semblance of critical thinking, which is precisely what the cult leader wants.

Moreover, cult leaders will often radically change these narratives for no apparent reason, forcing their cult members to abruptly forswear (and often even denounce as “heresy”) the beliefs they had previously been forced to profess, and behave as if they had never believed them, which causes their minds to further short circuit, until they eventually give up even trying to think rationally, and just mindlessly parrot whatever nonsensical gibberish the cult leader fills their heads with.

Also, the cult leader’s nonsensical gibberish is not as nonsensical as it may seem at first. Most of us, upon encountering such gibberish, assume that the cult leader is trying to communicate, and that something is very wrong with his brain. The cult leader isn’t trying to communicate. He is trying to disorient and control the listener’s mind. Listen to Charlie Manson “rapping.” Not just to what he says, but how he says it. Note how he sprinkles bits of truth into his stream of free-associated nonsense, and his repetitive use of thought-terminating clichés, described by Robert J. Lifton as follows:

“The language of the totalist environment is characterized by the thought-terminating cliché. The most far-reaching and complex of human problems are compressed into brief, highly selective, definitive-sounding phrases, easily memorized and easily expressed. They become the start and finish of any ideological analysis.” — Thought Reform and the Psychology of Totalism: : A Study of “Brainwashing” in China, 1961

If all this sounds familiar, good. Because the same techniques that most cult leaders use to control the minds of the members of their cults are used by totalitarian systems to control the minds of entire societies: Milieu Control, Loaded Language, Sacred Science, Demand for Purity, and other standard mind-control techniques. It can happen to pretty much any society, just as anyone can fall prey to a cult, given the right set of circumstances.

It is happening to most of our societies right now. An official narrative is being implemented. A totalitarian official narrative. A totally psychotic official narrative, no less delusional than that of the Nazis, or the Manson family, or any other cult.

Most people cannot see that it is happening, for the simple reason that it is happening to them. They are literally unable to recognize it. The human mind is extremely resilient and inventive when it is pushed past its limits. Ask anyone who has struggled with psychosis or has taken too much LSD. We do not recognize when we are going insane. When reality falls apart completely, the mind will create a delusional narrative, which appears just as “real” as our normal reality, because even a delusion is better than the stark raving terror of utter chaos.

This is what totalitarians and cult leaders count on, and exploit to implant their narratives in our minds, and why actual initiation rituals (as opposed to purely symbolic rituals) begin by attacking the subject’s mind with terror, pain, physical exhaustion, psychedelic drugs, or some other means of obliterating the subject’s perception of reality. Once that is achieved, and the subject’s mind starts desperately trying to construct a new narrative to make sense out of the cognitive chaos and psychological trauma it is undergoing, it is relatively easy to “guide” that process and implant whatever narrative you want, assuming you have done your homework.

And this is why so many people — people who are able to easily recognize totalitarianism in cults and foreign countries — cannot perceive the totalitarianism that is taking shape now, right in front of their faces (or, rather, right inside their minds). Nor can they perceive the delusional nature of the official “Covid-19” narrative, no more than those in Nazi Germany were able to perceive how completely delusional their official “master race” narrative was. Such people are neither ignorant nor stupid. They have been successfully initiated into a cult, which is essentially what totalitarianism is, albeit on a societal scale.

Their initiation into the Covidian Cult began in January, when the medical authorities and corporate media turned on The Fear with projections of hundreds of millions of deaths and fake photos of people dropping dead in the streets. The psychological conditioning has continued for months. The global masses have been subjected to a constant stream of propaganda, manufactured hysteria, wild speculation, conflicting directives, exaggerations, lies, and tawdry theatrical effects. Lockdowns. Emergency field hospitals and morgues. The singing-dancing NHS staff. Death trucks. Overflowing ICUs. Dead Covid babies. Manipulated statistics. Goon squads. Masks. And all the rest of it.

Eight months later, here we are. The Head of the Health Emergencies Program at the WHO has basically confirmed an IFR of 0.14%, approximately the same as the seasonal flu. And here are the latest survival rate estimates from the Center for Disease Control:

  • Age 0-19 … 99.997%
  • Age 20-49 … 99.98%
  • Age 50-69 … 99.5%
  • Age 70+ … 94.6%

The “science” argument is officially over. An increasing number of doctors and medical experts are breaking ranks and explaining how the current mass hysteria over “cases” (which now includes perfectly healthy people) is essentially meaningless propaganda, for example, in this segment on ARD, one of the big mainstream German TV channels.

And then there is the existence of Sweden, and other countries which are not playing ball with the official Covid-19 narrative, which makes a mockery of the ongoing hysteria.

I’m not going to go on debunking the narrative. The point is, the facts are all available. Not from “conspiracy theorist” websites. From mainstream outlets and medical experts. From the Center for  Disease Control.

Which does not matter in the least, not to the members of the Covidian Cult. Facts do not matter to totalitarians and cult members. What matters is loyalty to the cult or the party.

Which means we have a serious problem, those of us to whom facts still matter, and who have been trying to use them to convince the Covidian cultists that they are wrong about the virus … for going on eight months at this point.

While it is crucial to continue reporting the facts and sharing them with as many people as possible — which is becoming increasingly difficult due to the censorship of alternative and social media — it is important to accept what we are up against. What we are up against is not a misunderstanding or a rational argument over scientific facts. It is a fanatical ideological movement. A global totalitarian movement … the first of its kind in human history.

It isn’t national totalitarianism, because we’re living in a global capitalist empire, which isn’t ruled by nation-states, but rather, by supranational entities and the global capitalist system itself. And thus, the cult/culture paradigm has been inverted. Instead of the cult existing as an island within the dominant culture, the cult has become the dominant culture, and those of us who have not joined the cult have become the isolated islands within it.

I wish I could be more optimistic, and maybe offer some sort of plan of action, but the only historical parallel I can think of is how Christianity “converted” the pagan world … which doesn’t really bode so well for us. While you’re sitting at home during the “second wave” lockdowns, you might want to brush up on that history.

RED FLAGS THAT TELL ME TRUMP ACTUALY WON!!

 

As the fraud investigators pointed out, sometimes there's one or two red flags but no fraud, but it's rare to have three, and almost unheard of to have four and not be able to prosecute the case to a successful conviction.

This one has dozens of red flags. During the act, we have:

1) Trump was winning all the keys states by huge margins on election night. Even people here said 2020 was reminding them of exactly what they went though on 2016. And then, in the middle of the night, Biden surged ahead. That doesn't happen in multiple states.

2) All the key states mysterious stopped counting at about 1:00 AM, and only the key states stopped counting. Why would a state do that? Red flag.

3) Georgia claimed they stopped counting, saying the Atlanta arena was flooding from a burst pipe and the vote counters had to be evacuated. That was false. The arena never filed any paperwork for a contractor to come and fix anything. The only confirmation that there was even a leak said it was a minor drip that was quickly mopped up, and was nowhere near the counting. Red flag.

4) Republican observers were sent home because ballot counting had stopped, and that’s when the new fake ballots showed up. The delivery vehicles full of ballots were caught on video. Ballots aren’t normally driven across a state to be counted somewhere else. Red flag.

5) How did Biden’s lead massively increase while ballot counting was stopped? If you’re not counting ballots, the number shouldn’t be changing. Yet it did, by hundreds of thousands, but only for one candidate. That one would cause any international election observer to throw a red flag.

6) Republican election observers weren’t present when the new ballots were arriving in the middle of the night, because they’d been sent home. Another red flag.

7) Republican election observers weren’t allowed to observe in many of the states. Trump is correct, as backed up by their affidavits. Many were barred, many were ejected, some by “security”. In Philly they weren’t allowed to observe, even with a court order. The sheriff blocked them. That went on for days. Huge red flag, and another that UN observers take as evidence of election fraud.

8) Long delays in counting the votes in key states. Under international standards, long delays in vote counting are taken as suspicious, and usually indicate election rigging. Counting just isn’t at all hard compared to making up fake ballots that can survive cursory scrutiny. A long delay likely means they’re making sure they have enough “recount survivable” fraudulent ballots, or enough to cover for a rigged vote tally that was made up on election night.

9) All the long counting delays concerned cities with a long history of machine politics and rampant election fraud.

10) Observed real-time vote tally’s in multiple states where Trump or Jorgensen’s total count decreased. Negative votes aren’t supposed to exist. That’s a sign that the election were being hacked.

11) Mail-in-ballots arriving in Pennsylvania before they were even shipped out. That can’t happen in this universe, and is definite sign of fraud.

12) Large numbers of dead people, who were born over a hundred years ago, being recorded as having voted. I’ve confirmed plenty of those myself.

13) Large number of women reporting that someone voted under their maiden name. This happened to some of the women I comment with.

14) Large numbers of people showing up on election day and being told they’d all ready voted.

15) Republicans checking to make sure their ballot was recorded and finding out that it wasn’t, and then having to harass election officials for days to get it recorded. This happened to a blogger I’ve read for years, who happens to be a member of the US diplomatic corps.

16) The use of different voting standards in Democrat counties compared to Republican counties. One of Trump’s lawsuits is based on that.

17) New ballots showing up days after the election. The number of ballots still to be counted kept increasing, for days in some counties. Nothing like this remotely happened in normal states.

18) Late changes to election laws (in many states) and last-minute changes to election procedures and standards. Changing the system virtually during the act is a sign of election rigging by people in power. Trump has already had some rulings in his favor on that issue, as state election officials only have the power to enforce election laws, not to modify them on the fly.

19) Turning off or turning down voter signature verification so fraudulent ballots aren’t caught. This occurred in most or all of the key states. One reporter in Arizona voted nine times under different names, and all but one of the votes passed their signature checks. Pennsylvania’s mail-in-ballot rejection rate plummeted from 0.95% to 0.03%. It should’ve gone up because of the vast influx of first-time mail-in-voters, who often have a 3% rejection rate in that state. Since only election officials (the people running the election) can do that, it is a sign of election rigging.

20) Observations of people outside election areas making fake ballots. Some of this is on video, with “activists” signing multiple ballots just outside the election locations, with boxes of ballots in their vehicles, and with attempts to keep people from photographing them.

21) That the media was making very unsupportable calls on election night, all favoring one candidate over the other. In other countries, this is taken as evidence of a thumb on the scales.

22) The press suppression all allegations of voter fraud. Again, that happens in banana Republicans and is often evidence of voter fraud. Note that the same media organizations doing this are the ones who spent four years hyping every last hint that the Russian’s may have flipped even one vote, or that big data may have been used, or that dozens of people trolling Facebook counts as election rigging.

23) A rush to be declared the winner and get a concession, so as to avoid any recounts or investigation into election irregularities. Shoplifters try to get out the door as quickly as possible, just as all criminals try to avoid being searched or questioned.

24) Attempts to intimidate opposition lawyers. Some of the law firms hired by Trump have quit because of attacks, doxing, threats to their firms, and death threats. This is common in corrupt countries where an election has been rigged, and is a clear indication that one party does not want any evidence presented because it will expose their criminal activities, or show that the rigged an election. In normal legal practice, law firms are rarely if ever threatened, even when they’re defending ISIS terrorists.

25) People coming forward saying they were paid money to rig the election. That’s was already happening even prior to the election.

26) Whistle blowers coming forward saying they were told to perform illegal acts to sway the election. We’ve already got those.

27) Attempts to suppress and intimidate whistle blowers, along with attempts to silence or discredit them. We’ve already had that.

28) Attempts by top officials to suppress evidence that there was a coordinated effort to rig the election. We’ve had that too, with threats by a state AG to prosecute a reporter for playing a tape of instructions being given to election workers, in which they were told to attack Republican observers and throw away Republican ballots.

29) Attempts by media or other large communications concerns to suppress any discussions of election rigging, or anything questioning the results of the election. We’ve got that happening at Communist Chinese levels of censorship. The conservative half of the country can’t say anything on Twitter or Facebook. This just screams organized election fraud.

30) Organized media and tech suppression, to extreme levels, of stories that would harm their candidate, especially stories about ongoing criminal behavior. It means access to public information is being restricted, and if they will do that, they will do anything else. In other countries that is taken as a glaring red flag that the media is as corrupt as the system itself.

Statistical Red Flags that PROVE that Trump won and Biden Cheated

Just read all these and then ask yourself the question, DO YOU BELIEVE THIS WAS A FAIR ELECTION??

 

1) Extremely large and unusual voter turnouts in key areas that overwhelmingly favor one candidate. This is very prevalent, and also appeared in Putin’s re-election.

2) Voter turnouts that are above 90%. The highest turnouts in 60 or70 years in some areas (breaking records set when election rigging was commonplace), while most areas have close-to-normal turnouts, is a red flag of of election rigging to all international observers.

3) Voter turnouts exceeding 100%. If you run out of people long before you run out of ballots to count, you’re obviously counting fake ballots. In this election, some precincts exceeded 200% turnout.

4) extremely high turnouts for one candidate among certain demographics, which didn’t occur in similar cities in nearby non-battleground states that have similar demographics. This sticks out with a sore thumb where ever you look in this election, with northern Indiana and northern Ohio looking nothing like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, or Atlanta compared to Birmingham, etc.

For example, in Miami-Date, Baltimore city, and New York City’s five counties, Joe Biden got less votes than Obama or Hillary (99%, 99% and 76%). He barely outperformed Hillary in Chicago (up 4%), Columbus (11%), San Francisco (8%), Boston (3%), Washington DC (8%), New Orleans (10%), Arlington VA (14%). But then he does 50% better in places like Phoenix and Colorado Springs, 40% better in Austin, and 32% better in Atlanta? And Biden does this after ditching the Democrats’ famous and effective voter-turnout ground game?

5) Unusual ratios of Biden votes in mail-in-ballots in only certain areas. In Pennsylvania, Biden’s gap over Trump in mail-in-ballots was 40% of Trump’s lead in same-day voting, across all counties, except in the problem areas around Philly, where the gap inexplicably skyrocketed.

6) Swings in the Biden/Trump ratio of mail-in-ballots over time. When you look at the time when mail-in-ballots were counted, they’ve been randomized by the individual voters’ daily routines, personal procrastination levels, pickup routes, post-office procedures, sign-in times, and where they got placed on the floor at the election sites. The ratio should be like an isotopic signature at the point, and be extremely constant, as it is in non-key states. In the problem areas were fraud is historically highly prevalent, this ratio goes nuts, with the later ballots becoming more and more skewed towards Biden. The only way that can happen is through fraud.

7) Biden getting more and more of the expected number of votes, as predicted by the ratio of straight-ticket voters, as a district or precinct becomes more heavily Republican, again judged by the ratio of straight-ticket voters. This can only happen via a computer algorithm, because real voters don’t know how everybody else is voting, much less defect to Biden the more Republican their district is. In fact, the opposite should happen due to social influences like seeing thousands of signs supporting their favored candidate. This is very clear evidence of intentional election rigging via computer, and appears on a very wide scale.

8) Straight lines showing up in scatter plots that should look random. This is related to red flag #37, and show up in data in Wisconsin. Real data is messy, and when a statistical analysis turns that mess into a perfect, straight line, you’re seeing the work of a computer rigging results, not the actions of human beings who are hard to predict, and who drink a lot and sometimes lick Tide Pods.

9) The polls, which were wildly wrong, apparently got the suspect states surprisingly more accurate than states that got their ballots counted quickly. Basically, it looks almost like the vote in the late-counting states is being rigged to match polls that were wildly off everywhere else. Obviously all the pollsters shouldn’t have been close only in a couple of states.

10) It’s pretty much impossible for the result to deviate so much from the bellwether counties. Even if we’d been holding elections since before the Big Bang happened, we still wouldn’t have had a result where even eleven of seventeen bellwethers were wrong. This time 14 of them missed. Statistically, that simply can’t happen. When you find a result that is statistically virtually impossible, it is. So Biden forgot to rig the bellwether counties when he was rigging the key states, because only statisticians care about bellwethers.

11) The New York times election night live feed of raw data – for Virginia. Virginia is odd in that it apparently allows fractional voting, so a batch will come in that looks like this:
Batch stamp (GMT) Biden #, Trump #, Biden %, Trump %
2020-11-04T13:02:17Z 252.39 210.09 54.573171% 45.426829%

That one had 252.39 votes for Biden, and 210.09 votes for Trump, which were added to the running totals.

12) But the fractional voting gets weirder, because some of the batches have huge negative votes, like 2020-11-04T05:12:38Z, which had -37,510.39 votes for Trump. Kind of odd, eh?

13) But it gets weirder. In that dump, the first seven batches each gave Trump 45.4278% of the batch total, even when the number of votes was 11.28 to 9.39 or 1544.41 to 1285.57. The standard deviation of the Trump % of those 7 batches was 0.001653%, or a thousandth of a percent. The next 11 batches shifted slightly, giving Trump 45.22% of the vote, with a standard deviation of 0.02587%. The second group differed from the first group by 7 standard deviation of the second group, and 125 standard deviations of the first group. Only a machine creating fake ballots could do this, and by the way, there’s no such thing as a floating point vote. My assumption is that some coder didn’t realize he’d declared the wrong data type for his fake vote generator – which fed the New York Times election feed.

14) Hundreds of thousands of votes came in for Biden, out of nowhere, late in the night, while hundreds of thousands of Trump votes disappeared from the totals. The vote ratio on the later batches didn’t look remotely like what it had been in the first 125 batches of votes, in which Trump was taking a commanding lead. It’s like someone saw Trump was easily winning Virginia and hit the election-rigging panic button.

I’m sure I’ve forgotten many, many other red flags, but the point is that three or four red flags usually indicate a strong case for conducting an investigation that will most likely result in prosecution and conviction. Here, off the top of my head (except those last 5 because I’d just been punching them through a spreadsheet), are ten times the number of red flags that you’d probably have when looking into a company like Enron. There’s so much of it, that you can see this fraud from the moon.

Great Ways to Become Poor and Stay Poor (borrowed but Brilliant!)

 


1. We don’t need no education…
Refusing to invest in yourself and increase the value of one’s inherent skills will cause one to remain in poverty. You can’t expect to receive a CEO salary with no formal training in no specific area.
2. Develop an addiction
An addiction could be anything from frivolous spending, bad eating habits to time wasted. It’s not limited to substance abuse.
3. Never save
It’s a known habit among those who are frugal with money, you pay yourself first, then you pay your bills. 10% is a good place to start, but if you can’t, try 1%, 2% etc. You are the most important person to pay, not bills.
4. Borrowing
Borrowing isn’t bad if you plan to invest it wisely. If you’re borrowing for frivolous things, (Shoes, handbags, jewelry, a new car to show off to friends etc.) your sure to be the slave to the lender forever.
5. Go directly to jail
Formally being incarcerated can hinder one’s prosperity; intentionally committing a crime thinking it’s going to lead to your well-being is a sure way to cause one to remain in poverty. However, it’s already proven if one set their mind to success, an incarceration record cannot stop them. Ask Judge Mathis....
6. Stay in a dead-end low-paying job
Never get comfortable with a paycheck alone, or stay on a job that leads to nowhere. One must be willing to take a calculated risk and expand their horizon and change jobs if you’ve already hit a ceiling where you work.
7. Avoid work altogether
The Bible says, “If a man doesn’t work, he shouldn’t eat.“ II Thessalonians 3:10
It’s one thing if an individual is disabled, it’s another when an individual chooses not to work due to laziness.
—————————
I’ll end up with this, if one is looking for their prosperity to come from a politician, a hand out alone, Washington etc., your sure to remain in poverty.
Anyone that’s ever made anything of themselves, it was because they applied themselves. You can do it!

A Warning from Osama bin Laden's niece

 

Dear America,

Two-hundred-and-forty-four years ago, the resolve, courage, and wisdom of your Founding Fathers forever changed the course of history. For the first time, with the ratification of your Declaration of Independence, mankind was offered an unmatched societal ideal. Human beings were recognized for what we truly are by nature: all created free and equal, endowed with unalienable rights derive from our Creator. With your Constitution, your Founders sealed these God given rights, and protected them by instituting a limited form of self-government along with a robust justice system.

This, America, is what makes your nation exceptional. It is why you have stood as a beacon of democracy and hope for all subjugated peoples over the past two centuries. During some of our darkest hours, we remember how you fought for those who couldn’t defend themselves from tyranny, at the cost of your own brave men. The world is forever in debt to your sacrifice, and we are grateful for the refuge you provide those who can flee persecution.

This, America, is your heritage and the reason we still look to you as our champion of liberty. Those currently fighting for their freedoms across the world value your brave Founding Fathers. From the peaceful Hong Kong protesters who proudly brandish the American flag in the streets, to the Iranian students who refused to walk over the painted star-and-stripes on the ground of a Tehran university, people who live under oppressive regimes know first hand that being free has no price. And they know that America is the ultimate shelter for the downtrodden.

Redeem Your Time. 10 Things that will find more time for YOU

1.  If you want time to read and write, let the grass grow

Too many people occupy their time with tasks that while needed may not be the end of the world if   they aren't done.  Sometimes NOT doing something is more important

2.  If you want to enjoy your meal, eat your dessert first

Of course you don't but, sometimes it's important to make a decision on  what you really want.. and yes I had PIE for breakfast yesterday.

3.  If you want to start a fire, concentrate your light.

This of course means focus focus focus.  You can't accomplish what you don't focus on.

4.  If it doesn't feel good, don't do it.

I'm not talking physical fitness, but we all know sometimes we agree to do something that doesn't feel right.  This is that.  If there's a check in your spirit don't do it.

5.  If you want to get time, GIVE TIME

This is more true than you know. People you have helped will help you.  Friends are important so invest in some good ones.  They pay dividends.

6.  If you want to get there, SLOW DOWN, Pace is more important than speed.

When hiring someone I always wanted a steady worker. Those who go like crazy for a few hours usually don't last. The tortoise wins.  The hare is not what makes it all work. Slow DOWN and think thru what the task at hand is. Plan ahead. Plot it out.  Make a list.  Follow the plan.  Stop chasing the bright shiny things.

7.  If it costs less than $20 buy it.

Over-analyzing every single little thing when shopping is a real time waster. Just get what you need and trying to save 2 dollars on a 20 dollar item is suicide for time. My aunt and uncle use to drive 35 miles to save 15 cents on chicken.  This is why people are poor.  They can't make a decision and waste precious time.

8.  If you don't take time to play, you will need to take time for illness

It is critical to enjoy life, take a nap, go for a walk, do something that gives you pleasure.  Or you will die young

9.  If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys and you work in a zoo.  

This is not only true of employers, this is true of the things you hire people to do for your car, for your home improvement, for your health care and a thousand other things.  Never hire the lowest bidder unless you KNOW the quality of his or her work.  Don't spend money foolishly but hire the best not the cheapest.  AND the Home Depot Slogan isn't true...  You can do it, we can help.. not true.  Sometimes you can't and shouldn't.  You just might be that monkey building a zoo.

10. If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there AND it does no good to get good mileage on the wrong road.

Aimlessness is the biggest time waster of all.  Working hard at doing nothing is the worst kind of time suicide.  We are told to redeem the time... but keeping busy at nothing is destroying the days you have.

The horror that black victim privilege has become

In a park.  A white woman is holding her baby.  Some black thugs, mostly women, come up and harass her. The tell her to put down the baby. She doesn't

They grab  her and the baby goes flying.  The woman is beaten first by one woman and then by the whole group.

I would call them animals but that is too kind.  They are demons.  link here   


Make this video go viral.  Cut and paste. http://praag.org/?p=20941

This is what happens when black people take their victim privilege so far that they can maim and even kill white folks because .... racism.
