Why does a Food and Drug Administration Need to be Armed to the Teeth, but Ordinary Folk do Not? By John Steele

     Thanks to Mrs West for letting me now about this one. Let’s do it as a riddle; why does a purely administrative entity, which is not law enforcement, have an army of weapons?
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-01-18-fda-goes-paramilitary-390-pistols-122-shotguns-and-200000-rounds-of-ammo.html

“A recent report led by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has revealed that government groups like the IRS and the FDA are armed to teeth. All told, 20 federal agencies managed to spend at least $1.5 billion on munitions in just seven years. Now, many are wondering what the federal government plans on using all this artillery for — or perhaps more correctly, who they plan on using their weapons against. Despite claims that these organizations exist to serve the people of the United States, the excessive armament of federal agencies is further proof that the administrative arm of the central government is growing too big for its britches. There are plenty of other red flags surrounding the continuously expanding power of federal agencies.

The System is Insane: Now You Can be Destroyed for Merely Asking a Simple “Please Explain” Question By Chris Knight

     The US elites have moved to destroy Steve King, no doubt to make an example of him, for merely asking why Western civilisation was considered offensive. Although he mentioned white nationalism and white supremacy, he did not ask about them:
  https://www.washingtonpost.com/powerpost/mccarthys-challenge-to-steve-king-after-years-of-gop-inaction-stands-as-first-test-for-minority-leader/2019/01/17/fb21e32a-1a7a-11e9-9ebf-c5fed1b7a081_story.html

    It is an utterly pathetic way for Western civilisation to end; as a politically correct fizzle. I really would have preferred something more dramatic, like global nuclear extermination or maybe a runaway grey goo nano tech catastrophe. It is just like dying in one’s sleep while waiting to die in battle and go to a special warrior’s heaven, but instead finding that that purgatory is an afterlife of endlessly writing journal articles which are torn up as soon as they are finished.

The True Face of Feminism By Mrs Vera West

     The latest Womens’March showed how profound and truly intellectual feminism is, and why men should prick up their ears and listen when feminists speak:

“Body parts, foul language, and hate speech took center stage at the third Women’s March in Washington, DC, on Saturday. Women and men clad in pussy hats carried signs cursing President Donald Trump and praising female genitalia and reproductive organs.”

Why Universities are Buried in Mountains of B.S. By James Reed

     I really liked this article which argued that universities are drowning in bully manure:
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2019/01/18/notre-dame-prof-offers-21-reasons-why-higher-ed-is-bullsht/
  https://www.chronicle.com/article/Higher-Education-Is-Drowning/242195

“I have had nearly enough bullsh*t. The manure has piled up so deep in the hallways, classrooms, and administration buildings of American higher education that I am not sure how much longer I can wade through it and retain my sanity and integrity. Even worse, the accumulated effects of all the academic BS are contributing to this country’s disastrous political condition and, ultimately, putting at risk the very viability and character of decent civilization. What do I mean by BS? BS is the university’s loss of capacity to grapple with life’s Big Questions, because of our crisis of faith in truth, reality, reason, evidence, argument, civility, and our common humanity. BS is the farce of what are actually "fragmentversities" claiming to be universities, of hyperspecialization and academic disciplines unable to talk with each other about obvious shared concerns. BS is the expectation that a good education can be provided by institutions modeled organizationally on factories, state bureaucracies, and shopping malls — that is, by enormous universities processing hordes of students as if they were livestock, numbers waiting in line, and shopping consumers.

Saving the Planet from Global Warming by Voluntary Sterilisation? Yes! Please Do it My Leftoid Friends! By James Reed

     The article is in French, but that did not stop this talented journalist, who with just an application of Google Translator, and my old dog-eared French-English dictionary, soon got to the bottom of things.
  https://www.vice.com/fr/article/3k9m35/ces-francais-qui-ont-choisi-la-sterilisation-volontaire-pour-sauver-le-monde

“I see having children as an egotistical choice.” Florence, 24, had her tubes tied in April 2018 so she would never become pregnant. And the reason, when the Intergovernmental Report on Climate Change was released on 8 October last year, the AFP, via Twitter, published an infographic making it clear that “having one child less” would reduce CO2 emissions. Contacted via the Facebook Groups « Stérilisation volontaire (Ligature, Essure, Vasectomie) » [Voluntary sterilisation (Tubes, Essure, Vasectomy] and « VHEMT Francophone (Movement for the voluntary extinction of humanity), the men and women I interviewed have chosen voluntary sterilisation to respond to the environmental emergency. Sylvain, 34, wants to have a vasectomy. For this small farmer, if the global population has gone from 1.6 billion inhabitants in 1900 to almost 8 billion today, it’s “only because Man found ways of massively exploiting fossil fuels.” But he is convinced: “These energies will run out and there will come a time when we can no longer extract them from the soil cheaply.”…

Will North Korea Wipe Out All of Humanity? By James Reed

     North Korea has moved beyond the nuclear holocaust stuff, which I admit gets a bit boring, and upped the ante, to going for biochemical weapons, a whole new level of terror:
  https://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2019/01/18/study-north-korea-pursuing-biochemical-weapons-could-wipe-humanity/

“North Korea’s biochemical weapons capabilities may be even more dangerous than its nuclear missile program with weapons that could “wipe out all of humanity,” the conservative South Korean newspaper Chosun Ilbo reported Thursday, citing the New York Times. The revelations were reportedly in a study by the Middlebury Institute of International Studies published in December, suggesting that disarming its illegal nuclear program would not end the threat North Korea poses to the world, and that biological weapons may pose a more challenging one than nuclear bombs. “A single gallon of anthrax, if suitably distributed, could end human life on Earth,” the New York Times noted. “Even so, the Trump administration has given scant attention to North Korea’s pursuit of living weapons — a threat that analysts describe as more immediate than its nuclear arms, which Pyongyang and Washington have been discussing for more than six months.”

The Challenge to Politically Correct Archaeology By Brian Simpson

     Paleogenomics, the study of ancient DNA, is upsetting the politically correct establishment, by threatening the mythology that genetically diverse populations, races, simply peacefully blended together, rather than confronted each other in violent conflict, leading to women being captured by the opposing team, and mated:
  https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/17/magazine/ancient-dna-paleogenomics.html 
  https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/24/opinion/dna-nature-genetics-education.html

“College education is a fault line in American society. Men who didn’t graduate from college have not had real gains in wages since the 1960s, and white Americans without a college degree are increasingly dying “deaths of despair” — liver disease from alcoholism, overdoses from opioids, suicides. Now new research has found that college graduation, with all its advantages, is partly the outcome of a genetic lottery. On Monday, scientists published a study in Nature Genetics that analyzed the genes of 1.1 million people of European ancestry, including over 300,000 23andMe customers. Over 99 percent of our DNA is identical in all humans, but researchers focused on the remaining 1 percent and found thousands of DNA variants that are correlated with educational attainment. This information can be combined into a single number, called a polygenic score. In Americans with European ancestry, just over 10 percent of people with a low polygenic score completed college, compared with 55 percent of people with a high polygenic score. This genetic disparity in college completion is as big as the disparity between rich and poor students in America.”

Letter to The Editor - If the British people are to retain their traditional free way of life

To The Age        So UK Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has buckled to pressure and announced that he will support a second referendum on Brexit. Meanwhile the Speaker of the House of Commons has torn up years of precedent to facilitate a plot to render a "no deal" exit impossible, while the Clerk of Bills has conspired with former attorney-general Dominic Grieve to suspend Britain's departure from the EU. A second referendum would see disproportionate resources allotted to the "Remain" alternative urged by almost the whole of the UK political establishment. There would be no level playing field. There are well-publicized "Remain" proposals to rig the vote. If the British people are to retain their traditional free way of life and escape from the tyranny and bureaucracy of the EU, they may need to resort to massive civil disobedience or even civil war. The stakes are that high.

Letter to The Editor - British people, may have to resort to massive civil disobedience or even civil war

To The Australian        The dishonourable, if not treacherous, campaign to derail Brexit continues to gather momentum ("Corbyn to back new plebiscite on Brexit", 23/1) with Jeremy Corbyn's turnabout endorsement of a second referendum. Did he really bow "to pressure from rank-and-file party members and MPs" or to coercion from powerful interests behind the scenes? We have learned how John Bercow, the House of Commons Speaker, tore up years of precedent to allow MPs to control the business of the House, thus facilitating the plot to make a "no deal" exit impossible. There has also been the revelation that Colin Lee, the clerk of bills, has secretly conspired with former attorney-general Dominic Grieve to suspend Britain's departure from the EU. A second referendum would see disproportionate resources allotted to the "Remain" camp. There would be no level playing field. Greg Sheridan has reported ("Battle for Britain: People v Commons", 19-20/1) that such a referendum would be "much less democratic than it looks" and that "there are myriad Remain proposals to rig such a vote."
A time is approaching when the British people, to retain their traditional free way of life, may have to resort to massive civil disobedience or even civil war. The stakes are that high.

Letter to the Editor - The Abbott idea, like all other proposals for "constitutional recognition", is foolishly divisive and ethically unfair

To The Age        Establishing a block of "Indigenous" seats in the Senate would be a constitutional blunder and fundamentally inequitable ("Abbott idea worth heeding", 22/1). It is right for us to especially honour the Aboriginal people and their culture, because of their long period of custodianship of the continent. It is also good that we use some of our taxes to advance the welfare of Aboriginals experiencing poverty or long-range results of the cultural dislocation they have experienced as a people. However, legislation today needs to be founded on the equality, constitutionally, of all Australians, no matter what their ethnic and cultural origins and ancestry. The Abbott idea, like all other proposals for "constitutional recognition", is foolishly divisive and ethically unfair.

Western Feminists Throw a Fit: The marie Kondo Wars!

     The East Asians are a highly intelligent and cultured people who seem to be aware of the forces of darkness and degeneracy destroying the West. It is obvious to outsiders that we have big problems, especial with the gender agenda. Thus, when a sweet Japanese woman puts on a show to train women in how to do traditionally womanly things, why, the feminists are besides themselves. They have to be careful of the race barrier, but I think in terms of “cool” politically correct politics, the gender/transgender issue gets a higher rating. Hence, an Asian person like Marie Kondo, a real live Shinto maiden (where are maidens in the West?) gets openly attacked:

China Purges Itself of Western Degeneracy By James Reed

     I am fascinated by China, especially how despite grasping Western science and technology, and even Western imports such as Marxist communism, the nation still aims to preserve its people, unlike the West, where its elites seek only to make the world into something out of The Walking Dead, after all profits have been extracted. For example:
  https://edition.cnn.com/2019/01/18/asia/china-mens-earrings-blurred-intl/index.html

“Chinese TV personality Jing Boran has something on his ear that authorities don't want you to see. In the latest episode of the popular Chinese reality TV show "I, Actor," the young star's face is digitally altered to blur out his earrings. Jing, who held lead roles in Chinese box office hits "Monster Hunt" and "Time Raiders," is not the only victim of the alleged "earring ban." Images circulating on Weibo, China's version of Twitter, show several other young male stars with blurred circles on their ears. It's unclear if Chinese regulators have issued a specific directive barring men from being shown wearing earrings, or whether TV stations are reacting to a shift in what is considered culturally appropriate. Last year, China's media regulator banned TV stations from featuring actors with tattoos. Depictions of "hip hop culture, sub-culture and immoral culture," were also banned according to Chinese state media. Grace Leung, a professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong's School of Journalism and Communications, said the decision to blur earrings is likely influenced by the government's desire to minimize Western impact in China's pop culture.

Sure, Races Do Not Exist, Unless it Suits the Grand Plan By Brian Simpson

     Here is what a US airline is doing, showing that the “races do not exist” mantra, is just propaganda:
  https://www.dw.com/en/airline-ad-offers-discounts-to-americans-with-mexican-dna/a-47148053?utm

“As the US-Mexico border row continues to rage, AeroMexico is offering US travelers a "DNA discount" to visit their closest neighbor. An ad detailing the perk has gone viral on social media. An airline commercial widely shared on social media is taking on the prejudice that many Americans feel towards Mexico, their neighbor to the south. The two-minute ad for Aeromexico shows Americans explaining how they wouldn't consider traveling to Mexico, with one of them saying "No way!" Another, when asked whether they like tequila and burritos, answers "Yes," but when asked whether he likes Mexico, he replies "No." Having then apparently conducted DNA profiling on those featured, the ad's narrator then rewards them with discounts on flights to Mexico, based on the results. "The more Mexican they are, the more discount they get." One woman, named as Charlotte, looks disturbed when told she is 14.4 percent Mexican. When an elderly man hears he is 22 percent Mexican and therefore eligible for a 22 percent discount to visit Mexico, he replies: "That's bullsh*t, that is bullsh*t!" The ad later shows the respondents warming to the idea of visiting the country because as one woman put it: "I love discounts."

The Legacy of Diversity By Peter Ewer

     This brief post by Brett Stevens, pretty much sums up the present crisis in a nutshell:

“Diversity everywhere seems to result in the same mixture of lack of social unity plus low grade ethnic warfare: vandalism, rape, corruption, theft, white flight, and periodic race riots. South Africa proves no exception. It turns out that when your society has diversity problems, the solution is not to simply give the minority groups a seat at the table; it is to send them away. Diversity does not work — in any form: religious, ethnic, cultural, racial — and it splinters civilizations into warring special interest groups who take focus away from the future and reality and turn it toward self-referential infighting, at which point society collapses and all of the ethnic groups are destroyed, leaving behind a cultureless grey mixed race.”

Go for A Gerber! By John Steele

     Out here in the Victorian scrub, where I live in my tent, I sometimes need to clear areas so that I do not step on brown snakes, who can get upset when some big clod puts a boot on their back. I do not blame them, as I would too. Anyway, I have a Cold Steel Latin machete that has served me well, but is now so ground down it looks more like a kitchen knife. I am taking my time deciding on what brand to choose next, just to ad variety to my plain, uneventful  life. I went on EBay, and stumbled upon this nice bit of home spun philosophy by the fantastic blade makers, Gerber:

“When did we decide campgrounds needed laundromats? When the car stalled, whose bright idea was it to reach for a cell phone instead of a tool? There was a time when the words "quick" and "fix" were never found together in the same sentence. When our homes needed to be built, we grabbed brothers, fathers and hammers, not a mouse that clicked on Mr. On-line Contractor. Our nation's great accomplishments were a testament to hard work, sweat and ingenuity. After all, we not only put a man on the moon, but built him a rover to drive while he was up there. What will we achieve today? Can we turn our cheek to the enemy known as convenience before it makes us helpless? Do we have what it takes to depend solely on ourselves? As you ponder these questions, we invite you to join us on our mission. We're Gerber®. We design the tools, knives and outdoor gear that are essential, not only for the task at hand, but for bringing back something lost: our self-reliance. Gerber. Fend For Yourself.”

Magically Firing Migrant guns! By Charles Taylor

     The word is indeed a magical immigration place, and even the laws of physics are being to be less racist, and accept diversity ingot their formerly cold mathematical hearts, especially where migrants firing guns are concerned:
  https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-kate-steinle-appeal-20190116-story.html

“A Mexican man whose role in the shooting death of a woman walking on a San Francisco pier touched off a fierce immigration debate is seeking to overturn his felony gun possession conviction. It was the only charge he was found guilty of after a jury acquitted him of murder. Jose Inez Garcia Zarate had been deported five times at the time of the shooting and was wanted for a sixth deportation proceeding. Lawyers for Garcia Zarate filed the expected appeal last week in state court. He was charged with murder and illegal gun possession in the fatal shooting of Kate Steinle in July 2015. Steinle was shot in the back was she walked with her father on a city pier crowded with tourists taking in the sights. During the trial, his defense lawyers called an expert who testified that an unintentional ricochet shot killed Steinle. They argued that the weapon went off in their client’s hands in what was a tragic accident. Garcia Zarate wants the gun conviction overturned, contending he didn't know a gun was in his hands because it was wrapped in a T-shirt when it fired and he dropped it almost immediately after picking it up. He argues in court papers that he can't be convicted of illegal gun possession.

Deranged Feminism: The Women’s March By Charles Taylor

     The US Women’s March featured deranged, extremist feminism, with numerous signs saying all sorts of nonsense about female genitalia. You can see this sort of stuff here at this link:

Globalise This: Yellow Vests! By James Reed

     Next time I go into the cheap junk shop I will buy a yellow vest, and wear it proudly in the streets of Melbourne. Since the French yellow vest movement is now embracing both Left and Right, I don’t expect to be bashed up by antifa too quickly. Apparently there have been some recent fights, but Leftist members of the yellow vests had to stop and start punching themselves in the head. I wish. Anyway, the yellow vest protests are now going global, well, at least in Europe and Asia, and here is a neat summary, to ponder over a cup of herbal tea, or something stronger:
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-01-20/yellow-vest-movement-has-gone-worldwide

•    “Bulgaria: Yellow Vests began protesting the same weekend as the French movement - coming out in force on November 16 to protest in front of parliament and demand the resignation of the government.
•    Canada: Yellow Vest protests have taken place in more than a dozen cities across Canada - largely campaigning against the carbon price, Canada's participation in the UN's Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration, the Trudeau administration and other issues.
•    Croatia: Croatians came out in force on December 15, gathering in Ban Jelacic Square.
•    Egypt: An Egyptian A lawyer was arrested and jailed for 15 days after he posted a picture of himself wearing a Yellow Vest in support of the French protests.
•    Finland: Finns came out in force in mid-December as well, gathering in front of Parliament in opposition to the UN's Global Migration pact.
•    Germany: Marching in solidarity with the French, German Yellow Vests similarly came out against the UN migration pact.
•    Iraq: Yellow Vests demonstrated in Basra, Iraq on December 5 to protest poor job opportunities among other things. They were reportedly fired upon with live ammunition by police.
•    Italy: There have been several ongoing Yellow Vest protests in Italy over the last several months, with some protesting the government's hard-line stance against illegal migrants, and other pro-government activists protesting against the EU. In January, Italy's ruling government came out in support of the Yellow Vest movement, which AFP noted was "extremely rare for European leaders to back anti-government protesters in a fellow member state."
•    Netherlands: The Dutch joined the party at the beginning of December, blocking roads, roundabouts and tollbooths.
•    Pakistan: Hundreds of engineers came out in December to protest government services and pay.
•    Poland: Polish Yellow Vests protested in November and December, blocking the A2 motorway outside of Warsaw, demanding compensation for pigs they were required to slaughter, as well as the import of unlabeled Ukrainian agricultural products.
•    Russia: Yellow Vests protested right before Christmas in Moscow's Hyde Park against increased parking fees. "I’m a driver with 20 years of experience, and I can understand that the authorities want to free the city and make it accessible to pedestrians," said resident Tamara Papuashvili, adding " it's just a disgrace. You can use the metro, but there are more and more people there, it just cannot cope."
•    Serbia: Civil rights organisation "Združena akcija Krov nad glavom" began using yellow vests in its protests to show solidarity with the French protesters, as well as opposition to high fuel prices. Serbians have protested for six weeks in a row.
•    Taiwan: The Tax and Legal Reform League which has been protesting against high taxes since 2016 organized a yellow vest march on December 19.
•    United Kingdom: UK Yellow Vests are mostly right wing, pro-Brexit groups who have held rallies in London and other UK cities.

Money for Mexico, But Not the Wall By Chris Knight

     The present shutdown of the US government over the wall funding needs to be seen in the light of how the US spends its money, money that should go to national security. Thus, US $ 10.6 billion is going to South American countries as overseas aid. Beyond that, US $ 100 billion was secured for disaster relief over the past three years, but there is no money to deal with the immigration disaster. The reason is that the progressives want America to become non-white as fast as possible because these progressives are self-loathing racists, who benefit from a system that makes it ok to threaten to murder a white teenagers who smiles, on the pretence of “racism.” The system is tyrannical, and what is even more tyrannical is that it has been put up with for so long.

A Peep at the Mind of Google By Peter Bennett

     This is a good piece showing the mind set of Google, and why these monopolistic internet and social media mega-corporations need to be severely regulated, and fast before they pull down the pillars of the civilised world :
  https://dailycaller.com/2019/01/16/google-family-triggered-meltdown/

“A Google executive sparked a fierce backlash from employees by using the word “family” in a weekly, company-wide presentation, according to internal documents obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation. Many Google employees became angry that the term was used while discussing a product aimed at children, because it implied that families have children, the documents show. The backlash grew large enough that a Google vice president addressed the controversy and solicited feedback on how the company could become more inclusive. The DCNF received the documents from a source who insisted upon anonymity in order to share them.  One employee stormed out of the March 2017 presentation after a presenter “continued to show (awesome) Unicorn product features which continually use the word ‘family’ as a synonym for ‘household with children,'” he explained in an internal thread. That employee posted an extended rant, which was well-received by his colleagues, on why linking families to children is “offensive, inappropriate, homophobic, and wrong.”
