Border Patrol says agents won't obey Biden



That's right. And the military doesn't have to obey illegal orders, either. So Biden can do whatever he wants, but if he cannot secure cooperation, he is just whistling Dixie.

Well, at least some of these government employees aren't zombified yet. But I'm sure the pinkos are working on that.



GDP numbers are smoke and mirrors



That's not the title of the tweet, but it should be. You have to more hard-hitting. The tweet points to an article which shows what wrong with the GDP number. To put it succinctly, all of the GDP growth and then some, was accomplished with deficit spending.

Deficit spending is out of control, and the only thing holding up the economy. Biden touts job growth, but too is phantom growth. Everything you look at is fake.

But people will buy into it, and vote for the guy. That's what we're fighting. We need to keep truth alive because these people are so dishonest. Will it matter? Better pray that it does. This may be our last chance.









Can Texas Really Secede From The Union - National Divorce?



For the record, and once again, since I've been consistent on this, I say no. It's actually embarrassing that so-called conservatives keep pushing the idea.

But I have pushed the Article V convention of states proposition many times. If that convention were to occur, anything could happen. That's why it is opposed in some quarters.

At least an Article V can resolve the matter peacefully. Or at least it could resolve peacefully in theory. Trouble is, if nefarious interests were to get control over an Article V, they could end up getting everything they wanted without having to fire a shot.

In the end, if there was a war, it would only happen if you can find enough people who were willing to fight---on BOTH sides. Up until quite recently, I'd say that was not likely. But it is getting closer, so maybe there will be a war after all.













You can't make this stuff up



PETA wants to get rid of the groundhog in groundhog day. The irony of this just blew my mind.

PETA is still around? This IS Groundhog Day. You know, the MOVIE. I see the same thing over and over again, and it is insane. But there it is.











Are you brainwashed?



As usual, I will try to keep it brief. Shoot, being long winded is against my nature.

As for the question posed in the title, I would say that most of the time, I'm sure that I am not. Examples abound on this blog. I am well ahead of the herd. It seems the usual brainwashing group is about 2-3 years behind the truth. By the time the truth gets recognized, the current fraud is well underway.

I have said again and again that in order to defeat this, you have to get in front of it. The herd is always well behind it. I think they are brainwashed. But if you are truly brainwashed, you are completely unaware of it. I try doggedly not to be. So there's that.

As for the text in the tweet below, if you watched the J6th theater, you wasted your time. You should have known it to be theater before even the first hearing took place. Therefore, if they've got you taking them seriously, they have gotten to you already.

Western Government is Aligned Toward a Dollar-Based CBDC



A digital currency is what they seek. Nothing is the way that it appears. In other words,the lies and the deceit is diabolical. For instance, the ruling class will preach democracy, and deliver tyranny. They'll preach law and order, and deliver chaos. They'll preach prosperity, and deliver poverty.

And most people will be deceived. It won't be stopped until the public is universally incapable of being lied to any further. It isn't clear to me that this has happened, or that it will ever happen. But there's always the hope that it can.











Biden Set To Announce New LNG Export Ban After White House Met With Gen-Z Climate Warrior



There is some doubt that this is genuine. Consider a quote below:

Of course, there is always the other side of this - there is no actual restriction at all, currently approved LNG facilities will allow exports to double over the next few years and this 'pause' of 'new' approvals is merely a headline-grabbing bone thrown to the climate-kids in an effort to buy votes?


In other words, can you trust ANYTHING this administration says or does?













US Navy lost a battle at sea?



Gee. Isn't that the kind of thing that happens when a authoritarian/totalitarian government suffers a military reverse? That is, isn't it covered up? The Japanese did it after the Battle of Midway, in which they lost the flower of their fleet at sea. The news of the defeat was covered up.

That's why you don't put up with censorship. It's how a failing government sustains itself in power. The truth would make them accountable, and a failing government cannot allow that. Now, if a government were truly democratic and open, such cover ups would not be possible. Something to think about, you people.











Don't waste time



Daily update:

You can preach all you want, but if you don't act, it means nothing. The primary season is upon us, and I got a sample ballot for the upcoming primary here in Texas. I will definitely look for opportunities to express my extreme displeasure with some of those in the GOP who have done questionable things recently.





end update, the orginal post follows:



No matter what you do in life, you have to manage your time. If you waste your time, you risk failure. With that thought in mind, I have to say something about the talk about Joe Biden's mental acuity. I think too much time is being wasted on it. Yep, and here I am blathering about something that is not going to prove useful in winning this election.

No question that Biden trips over the language. But I just wasted my time reviewing a speech in which Biden tripped over his own tongue for a few seconds for a speech that lasted over 20 minutes. It was a total waste of my time.

I spent over 20 minutes scanning over Democrat propaganda to hear maybe 10 seconds of a speech in which Joe Biden mangled his words. This annoys the hell out of me that they'd waste my time continually bringing up this kind of nonsense. The issues are not that he makes gaffes. They all do.

Choose your battles carefully. Trump made a gaffe recently, and they've gone to town on it. This isn't going to prove to be useful when they can deflect like this. This is a waste of time.

The economy is not as good as they were claiming in that speech. There are troubling signs. Concentrate not on Biden's stumbles, but those other things. These people control the narratives enough already. Don't waste my time. It was an RNC tweet that I saw on Whatfinger. We don't need volume of info, we need relevance.

He also asks why scientific progress has slowed down.  On that question, I have posted a few times. Here's one that is relatively popular.

Here's another relatively popular post on the subject. It boils down to the Tiberius Syndrome.

Al Fin subscribes to the theory of dysgenics. What does that mean? Think of the flick "Idiocracy", and you've got it.  It's kinda like the opposite of evolution is supposed to be.















Jack Smith’s Special Counsel Appointment Is Unconstitutional, Former Reagan Attorney General Ed Meese Tells Supreme Court



1/26/24: Update to 12/21/23 post:



Was it legal to appoint Jack Smith as special counsel? Comment: It wouldn't surprise me to find that it wasn't. Perhaps the SCOTUS will decide on this. But maybe they'll weasel out, too.





end update, the original post follows:

The Supreme Court is going to have to get involved whether they like it or not.

The Democrats do not want to run on their record, so they do stuff like this. This kind of thing has been way over the top for a long time now. Hopefully the court will at least attempt to keep the Democrats honest. I blush as I write this.

Trump wins New Hampshire

11/26/24: Update to yesterday's post:



Here is in bold relief the real purpose of Nikki Haley's candidacy. She's not getting Republican votes, she is dividing the party. It is the only real purpose for her continuing candidacy. She has no support. The votes she's getting now will not be there in the general election.

The line is that she is more electable, but if she cannot win the rank and file, she cannot win period.









end update, the most recent update follows below:

Daily Update:

It looks like 3 times more voters in the GOP primary than in the Dem primary. You KNOW that there aren't that many GOP voters in New Hampshire! It'd be redder than West Virginia if that were true. That alone should be sufficient to show that Nikki Haley's votes were coming from Democrats. Had to be.

By the way, how long will NBC keep up this story? I'm sure that they'd like to bury it.

end daily update, original post follows below:

Last time I looked, it was this morning, and it was about a 10 point victory.

Not that I expected any different. I guess I'm always looking down the road a bit. The expectation was for a Trump victory, so this isn't a surprise. But what does it all mean?

The polls indicated a bigger margin. I'd say that this means that the Democrat effort to narrow the victory, or even produce a defeat for Trump, was the reason for the discrepancy. But what does it mean?

I'd say that if it doesn't result in a defeat of the forces that are taking us all down, then it is in vain.

I'd also say there's no reason to compromise with the RINO faction that joins with the Democrats. No soup for you, RINOS!

Now if the RINOS would be more reasonable, maybe we can talk. Maybe. But joining with the Democrats is not the ticket, RINOS. So the RINOS should take the "L", and look to mend fences. But if they did that, they wouldn't be RINOS anymore. We'll see. But I'm not optimistic that there will be any change. Even if there were any change, I'd be VERY suspicious.

Climate scientist Michael Mann’s defamation case reveals what critics say is unethical behavior



This is the first I've heard of this trial. It's being held in DC, so I figure that's not a good omen for the defendants.

Since I'm not familiar with the case at all, my only impression is from this article. It looks like a typical leftist pressure tactic to try to control opposition. ( meaning Mann is suing in order to pressure his critics to shut up.)

It also looks like guys like Mann are succeeding in the broader fight to gain acceptance of their methods. The question before us all should be this: Is this the kind of society that we want? Because if it is, then this country won't be livable in the near future.









Untouchables (film scene)

Sometimes you don't need a movie! There's something that real and live, and there it friggin' is.







How does the flick stack up to reality? Here's a vid that makes the comparisons.







Absolutely numbing



Once upon a time, in the nineties, I read a book called "Unlimited Access". It told the story which was described as the "Moosehead Truth". This is the Moosehead Truth. Nothing is more revealing than hearing with your own ears from the people involved. There is no denying the truth of this. There is no arguing it, or sugar coating it. But the guy tries anyway.

The story about the "Moosehead Truth" is about a trial. The story is in the book, so I have to paraphrase from memory. Basically, the crook says if that "moosehead could talk, we'd all go to jail". Well, here's the moosehead. The guys talking and he's on tape offering a bribe. The Mooshead talked!







If the Moosehead Truth can bring down the temple, maybe this can. Watch it if you want to hear the truth.











January 6th 2021 was not a coup



Glenn Greenwald explains why.

By the way, this video covers a segment of Zero Hedge's recent lengthy video of January 6th.

Also, would anybody care to study this as an example of projection as a propaganda device?

If abandoning Judeo-Christian ethics is a problem, then look in the mirror FIRST. Make sure that you're not engaging in confirmation bias. You're not jumping to conclusions, and you're not mind-reading. Am I self-aware enough to discover these as biases of my own? If so, what to do about it?

Once those questions are answered properly, then let's go forward with analyzing this guy in this video who claims it was a coup, and what are his errors? Glenn Greenwald does that, so let's look at Greenwald's analysis and see if this was correct, and then proceed to determine if it was projection.

It is probably not entirely correct for me to jump a step or two, but for the sake of this post, let's assume that Greenwald's analysis is absolutely correct. Therefore, does the guy in question KNOW what he is saying is false? For if he does, then this may be a prime example of PROJECTION.

I will leave it at that for now. I can say this, I'd like to BELIEVE that it is true and that it is projection. So maybe I should check the lists to make sure that I'm right. Seems like I have a habit of doing that, or I'd like to believe that I have that habit already. But since self-awareness is often a problem, I will double check.

Why bother? Because we've got a problem, and to do nothing about it is condemning ourselves to failure again and again.











How to thwart the nefarious propaganda technique of projection



1/25/24: Daily Update: A deeper dive

  • It's not a misunderstanding.  These people are lying because they know the truth.
  • Recent moral developments in the culture have enabled this to become even more powerful.
  • It's hard to tell WHO is projecting.



The article gives you a clear definition of what projection is. Why it is so powerful, and examples in history. The changes in our culture with respect to moral relativism has supercharged the technique. A powerful anti-dote must be applied. For example, the use of slander is being adopted because people have drifted away from Judeo-Christian moral ethics provided in the Ten Commandments. Therefore, speaking falsely against others is now considered okay. The moral rot of Postmodernism has taken root amongst the population. This change has been drastic and fairly recent.

Key quote:
The bottom line is that significant portions of the U.S. and world populations have no firm moral barricades against projection.


What to do about all this? The article discusses the anti-dotes at length. It would be wise to learn and practice these techniques continually. That's the reason for this deeper dive!

Some things to look out for:

  • Confirmation bias
  • Mind reading
  • Lack of self-awareness



Finally, you have to do your own research. Therefore, improve your own research skills.

I hope this is a good enough summary. I hope to refer to this in future posts.

Everybody in the MAGA movement needs to read this, and learn it by heart. MAGA has got their work cut out.



Yes, I think that this is a way towards more truth in government, and therefore, it is a good thing. You sure cannot count on the other side to do it. Indeed, they are the reasons why MAGA had better do it. The other side just MIGHT do it, but in cynical ways. Read this article carefully if you need to know why.

Dialectics

* Note: this is an update that didn't specify that it was an update. There is some context here that got lost. My mistake. The context has been lost. My goof. Sorry.

Dialectics --- updated ----



The subject of dialectic could lead to some productive understanding PROVIDED that it is done honestly. That's the problem with Marxism, though. These people are in violent rebellion against truth, and they'll say so themselves. ( And they have said so.)

As a means of getting to the truth, it could be a good thing. On the other hand, Marxists like to adhere to a model in which the "truth" is malleable to the will. That could get you into another discussion altogether. For instance, what is "truth"? Does truth exist outside of human will? The Marxists would have to say "no", because they are quite opposed to anyone contradicting their point of view. There can be no truth in Marxism. It's a matter of whose will is the one that prevails. In other words, the lamb and the wolf in Aesop's Fable.

* The previous post was updated with a Wikipedia link to the subject of dialectics. That's in case you are not familiar. From the sound of the typical political discussion, you might as well be talking Greek with respect to that subject.

A sidebar here: With respect to the changing allegiances in the Democrat Party, it appears that it is becoming the party of "educated" white folks. I would put forward the proposition that anybody who uses the terms "left-right-middle" probably isn't very well acquainted with dialectics. If I'm wrong, then they DO know, and what they also know that they are communists. They are counting on the ignorance of others, who don't know any better.

For Republicans not to know this is shameful. How can you be opposed to Marxists if you don't even know what it is? According to the Art of War, not knowing your enemy may well cause your defeat even before you start. It is shameful not to know any better, and worse still if you do.

Six questions too many Democrats refuse to answer

Six questions too many Democrats refuse to answer

Sure, ask those questions. It can help a lot.

But I concentrate on REPUBLICANS because of their refusal to actually meaningfully oppose the Democrats. Criticizing the Democrats is something that ANYBODY can do, and all GOP candidates WILL do. But what about actually following through with it when the time comes? The GOP habitually fails to do this.

An example is this campaign season. Nikki Haley got some Democrat votes, and that's given the so-called Republicans an opportunity to undermine the obvious popular choice amongst the rank and file GOP voter.

If the GOP didn't connive with Democrats to undermine Trump in his first term, would have any of the Democratic tactics back then have been useful to them at all? Our problem is within our own party. Indeed, they manage to turn off so many conservative voters, that they are guaranteeing defeat at the polls. These people do it DELIBERATELY. They would rather lose than to win, because being a controlled opposition is actually more advantageous to them PERSONALLY than actually governing.

Nikki Haley is reportedly courting Democrat votes. Then why is she running at all? ASK HER THAT QUESTION.

You can argue all you want with the Dems, but the real elections are being held now during the primary season. As usual, the rank and file are probably missing the boat. This is the time to whittle down the influence of these people who do not stand for anything and do not fight for anything. They won't fight for anything that they claim to believe, and they certainly aren't going to start now. So they must go. Nikki Haley is obvious, but there are many, many others.

But people don't see that, and they never hold them accountable. Nothing will change for the better until they are held accountable. Once those are held accountable, then you have the power to hold the Democrats accountable. With the division being promoted by the dishonest and disloyal members of the GOP, there can be no accountability. This is what these types are after. People need to wise up to them, and send them home.



Musk's big plan



1/24/24: Daily Update

The Angry Astronaut says that the FAA is moving fast. For them perhaps, but not fast enough. Comparing it to Europe is kind of a joke. The USA should not be emulating Europe, for heavens sake. What the hell is so great about Europe?

BTW, I know I'm bitching a lot, but its what I do best!









end update, original post follows below:

First of all, as a comment to the video, I'd say I have my doubts. I've always had my doubts. But one thing does not appear doubtful now. That one thing is that he'll have a helluva space ship soon. It almost reached orbit, and would have reached orbit the last time, except for one minor detail.

A big goal is to make it fully reusable. If that's achieved, then the cost of each launch will be dramatically less. Even with that, he has some major hurdles ahead. One could legitimately ask if ALL of these hurdles can be overcome.

One thing that Musk does is to think big. But maybe the kind of big isn't the right kind of big. Thinking big may be part of his genius, but it can also be one's downfall. Anyway, he's got big plans. But I have doubts.
