It has been a long time since I have scratched out an article and sent it by magpie to editor Arnie down the road, to publish for all the world to see its splendour. What has happened, apart from the usual psychiatric problems, is writer’s block. I sit in the yogi position on the oil-drenched concrete of my sweat-box shed, and, and, well, nothing. Then I fall asleep, often banging my had on the concrete, which is not doing the surface of the floor any good. What’s that you say? Oh, you didn’t say anything, it was just the “voices in my head”:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-02-06-mit-scientists-confirm-technology-to-beam-voices-into-your-head.html

“A crackpot theory no more, scientists from Massachusetts Institute of Technology just revealed they now possess the technology to beam voices into your head. For years , the mainstream media has been poking fun at anyone who actually believed the “powers that be” are desperately trying to usurp control over humanity — but some of the latest technological developments are clear indications that a totalitarian regime is brewing on the horizon. At long last, scientists are now revealing the first wave of technology that could soon be used to bring the world at large to its knees. In 2018, we saw warnings of “pre-crime” policing systems come to pass, and video surveillance technology become more and more advanced. Now, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers say they have developed the technology necessary to beam voices right into your head. What could go wrong?

To The Age        Pat Turner argues ("Finally, a step in the right direction", 15/2) that the "Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people" should be treated as "equal partners" in the search to "close the gap"; but there are problems with this advocacy. It is not clear that such a "people" exists today in fact. Rather, there are a minority of Australians who happen to have some or full Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander ancestry. As for the "gap", there is reason to fear, on scientific grounds concerning genetic inheritance, that the gap simply cannot be closed. This suggests that the campaign to close it has been conceived and is being operated in order to achieve significant change in the political order of the nation - a kind of confidence trick at the expense of other Australians. Government policies should be predicated on the welfare of all of us, with equitable sharing that is not derailed by insult terminology ("racism") or dubious psychological theorizing ("generational trauma").

     There is a new book by Yoram Hazony, The Virtue of Nationalism, (Basic books, New York, 2018), defending nationalism. This can only be good, however weak that defence is likely to be. I have not read the book, have no money to buy books, so I will rely upon a book review by a reliable source to enlighten you. Then we can forget it and move onto the next misery.
  https://www.thesocialcontract.com/artman2/publish/tsc_29_2/tsc-29-2-vinson.shtml

“An Israeli citizen, Hazony offers an interesting perspective of this topic from the vantage point of his background. He affirms that the historical nationalism of Western countries derives from the Old Testament’s provision for nationhood as a part of God’s order and providence. This particularly became true during the Reformation when copies of the Bible began to circulate widely. To this analysis one might note that the New Testament has similar provisions which guided Christian Europe. It stated that the division of nations encouraged men to seek after God and that nations would continue to exist in Heaven. Enlightenment thinkers such as John Locke and Emmanuel Kant set the stage for a different view of nationalism, the notion prevalent today that global order should supersede nations. Locke held the view, Hazony notes, of extreme individualism. He maintained that society is a construct created by autonomous persons pursuing their self-interest. Locke also believed that people are “blank slates” on which anything may be written.

     Here is the bold, adventurous spirit that science should exhibit: explain some cosmological phenomenon, by means of the postulation of extra-terrestrial intelligence. That is sure to upset mainstream science:
  https://www.foxnews.com/science/harvard-prof-doesnt-back-down-from-claims-extraterrestrial-spacecraft-tech-is-flying-past-jupiter-orbit

“A distinguished Harvard University professor is not backing down from his claims that a piece of extraterrestrial spacecraft technology may be flying past the orbit of Jupiter at this moment. Avi Loeb, one of the top astronomy professors in the world, boasting of decades of Ivy League professorships and hundreds of publicized works in respected astronomy publications, is remaining defiant that the space object – dubbed as “Oumuamua” – first noticed by Hawaiian astronomers in 2017 could be from another civilization. “Considering an artificial origin, one possibility is that ‘Oumuamua is a lightsail, floating in interstellar space as a debris from an advanced technological equipment,” Loeb and his colleague Shmuel Bialy wrote in Astrophysical Journal Letters in November, according to the Washington Post. But Loeb remains stubborn on this theory, and dismisses the claims that it’s a rock, noting that it's moving too fast for an inert rock. He told the Post that the object is long yet no more than one millimeter thick, and that it’s so light that sunlight is moving the object out of the solar system.

     I do not follow popular music, as I regard it, like film, as contaminated and degenerate. Still, I noticed that some popular “artists” are coming out and wearing openly pro-Trump and pro-build-the-wall clothing, at the big gathering of these music critters. You can have a look at them in the link below if interested, but it is good for these eternally whinging, privileged stars, to have one of their own kind sling mud in their faces, faces, that usually only emit bs, increasing the carbon footprint, and global warming, of course.

     Straight from The Times of London, if there still is a London, or an England, comes news that dating apps are being used by children as young as eight to, well, date, then get raped, which seems to be all that Britain does with its children now, as its major contribution to white genocide:

  https://metro.co.uk/2019/02/10/children-risk-grooming-sexual-exploitation-tinder-grindr-8505910/

“The Digital Secretary has said he will be writing to Tinder and Grindr asking what measures they have in place to keep children safe, after an investigation claimed they are at risk of being exploited on the apps. Police have investigated more than 30 incidents of child rape since 2015, where victims were sexually exploited after evading age checks on dating apps, the Sunday Times reported. The newspaper said records obtained through Freedom of Information requests showed 60 further cases of child sex offences via online dating services, including grooming, kidnapping and violent sexual assault. The youngest victim was eight years old, the paper said. The findings were described as ‘truly shocking’ by Jeremy Wright, Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport. He added: ‘I will be writing to these companies asking what measures they have in place to keep children safe from harm, including verifying their age. ‘If I’m not satisfied with their response, I reserve the right to take further action.’”

     There is by now no secret that China is seeking to surpass the US and become number 1, top of the pop charts. That is the thesis of Michael Pillsbury’s book, The Hundred Year Marathon (2016), although the subtitle: China’s Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower, is inaccurate, since there is no secret.
  https://www.breitbart.com/asia/2019/02/05/we-have-30-years-left-in-chinas-100-year-marathon-to-replace-america-as-worlds-superpower/

“China has been pursuing a strategy known to China hawks as The Hundred-Year Marathon, according to Michael Pillsbury‘s book which takes that strategy as its title.  President Donald Trump has described Pillsbury as “the leading authority on China.” In his book, Pillsbury describes China’s marathon strategy as one built around deception, playing on America’s view of China as a poor country and our elite’s belief that China can be democratized and reformed toward a market-based economy. But this play-acting is all an elaborate ruse intended to “mislead and manipulate American policymakers to obtain intelligence and military, technological and economic assistance” Pillsbury notes.”

     This is my nomination of crazy article of the week, as it shows just how far the politically correct thought police, literally, have gone in Britain. While migrant grooming gangs have raped thousands of children, and the police held back from pursuing them, until they absolutely had to, due to political correctness, there is a full-scale attack upon traditional British people. This is anarcho-tyranny by definition:
  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6687123/Mother-arrested-children-calling-transgender-woman-man.html

“A mother was arrested in front of her children and locked up for seven hours after referring to a transgender woman as a man online. Three officers detained Kate Scottow at her home before quizzing her at a police station about an argument with an activist on Twitter over so-called 'deadnaming'. The 38-year-old, from Hitchin, Hertfordshire, had her photograph, DNA and fingerprints taken and remains under investigation. More than two months after her arrest on December 1, she has had neither her mobile phone or laptop returned, which she says is hampering her studies for a Masters in forensic psychology. Writing on online forum Mumsnet, Mrs Scottow – who has also been served with a court order that bans her from referring to her accuser as a man – claimed: 'I was arrested in my home by three officers, with my autistic ten-year-old daughter and breastfed 20-month-old son present. 'I was then detained for seven hours in a cell with no sanitary products (which I said I needed) before being interviewed then later released under investigation ... I was arrested for harassment and malicious communications because I called someone out and misgendered them on Twitter.' Confirming the arrest, Hertfordshire Police said: 'We take all reports of malicious communication seriously.' The case is the latest where police have been accused of being heavy-handed in dealing with people who go online to debate gender issues. Sitcom writer Graham Linehan was given a verbal harassment warning by West Yorkshire Police after transgender activist Stephanie Hayden reported him for referring to her by her previous names and pronouns on Twitter.”

     President Trump has come clean in openly revealing that he is a big immigration man, being opposed only to illegal immigration. Never mind that legal immigration has transformed America ethnically, even more radically than illegal immigration. In fact, here are some insights about how Whites will become a minority even faster than predicted, perhaps in only a decade or so, if immigration is not put under control
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/02/06/census-foreign-born-population-to-hit-69m-by-2060-if-immigration-continues/

“The foreign-born population will hit an unprecedented 69 million by 2060 should current legal immigration levels — wherein the U.S. admits more than a million legal immigrants a year — continue unchanged. Newly released Census Bureau analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies reveals that current legal immigration levels will be practically the sole driver of U.S. population growth, increasing the foreign-born population from it’s current 44.6 million to a record 69.3 million. This would represent a 56 percent increase in the foreign-born resident share of the total U.S. population in just four decades. Also, this increase in the foreign-born population does not include the U.S.-born descendants of those residents. Foreign-born residents give birth to about 791,000 children every year who are rewarded with automatic birthright American citizenship solely for being born within the parameters of the country. Should this birth rate among foreign-born residents remain steady over the next four decades, about 32 million U.S.-born children to foreign mothers would receive birthright citizenship.

     There was an entertaining piece, if we can describe such a ghoulish topic in such terms, at Natural News.com, saying that, hypothetically, the New York laws allowing infanticide of babies born from botched abortions, had a surprising consequence. If, magically such babies could use a handgun, then the babies would have the right, by self-defense laws to shoot the abortionist, or whoever was about to kill them! Yes, this is a bit silly, but that is the nature of thought experiments, which draw out the consequences of positions. Clearly there is something very wrong with such laws, even if one supported limited abortion. It is felt that a slippery slope has been created leading to possible death camps at the end. Here is where the American debate now lies:
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/02/06/house-republicans-re-introduce-born-alive-act-to-protect-babies-from-infanticide/

“Missouri Republican Rep. Ann Wagner re-introduced a bill Wednesday that would protect babies born alive after abortion from infanticide. The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act would ensure any infant born alive following an abortion receives the same medical care and protection the law gives any newborn baby. Republican Whip Steve Scalise of Louisiana – who originally co-sponsored the legislation when it was introduced previously – will bring a resolution that provides for floor consideration of Wagner’s bill. The two Republicans would force a vote in the House after 30 legislative days if no action is taken. “Innocent life must be defended and protected at every stage, and that includes babies born alive during an abortion,” said Scalise in a statement. “We must immediately extend legal protections to these vulnerable newborns and prosecute any doctor who would leave them to die.” Scalise added he began the process of forcing a vote on the bill “especially after horrific actions taken in New York and Virginia to permit infanticide.”

     Although this one is American focused, it deals with my pet hate, global warming, so I do this one, not Chris, who seems over-worked covering  the American crisis anyway. It shows that climate change  and socialism go hand in hand, like a hammer and sickle:

“ On Thursday Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) introduced a so-called “economic development plan” that will not only bankrupt America if it is ever fully adopted, but it will reverse more than a century of societal and technological progress. According to an overview of the plan, which Ocasio-Cortez is calling the “Green New Deal,” it is decade-long “massive transformation of our society with clear goals and a timeline,” Americans for Tax Reform(ATR) said. Specifically, the Green New Deal — and bear in mind we’re not making any of this up — calls for: — The elimination of all air travel, at least in the United States. Not only does that mean domestic flights, but that also includes foreign travel (not sure if Ocasio-Cortez and her fellow “Democratic Socialists” would allow airliners from foreign countries to fly to the U.S. and land here). — The replacement of air travel with “high-speed rail” travel, essentially turning a four-and-a-half hour flight from Los Angeles to New York City into a 24-hour ordeal or more. “Build out highspeed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary,” the plan says. — The literal rebuilding of every single building in the United States: “Upgrade or replace every building in U.S. for state-of-the-art energy efficiency.” — The end of all traditional forms of energy currently in use in the U.S., to be replaced by ‘green’ renewable energy sans nuclear power (wind and solar). In fact, ‘if possible,’ the plan calls for the elimination of all nuclear power plants. It’s “a 10-year plan to mobilize every aspect of American society at a scale not seen since World War 2 to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.”

     Even though the Deep State globalists are set to destroy Trump and his family, with the exception of Jared Kushner, Trump continues to pander to them, on issues such as immigration Never mind that legal immigration will also result in Whites becoming a minority even sooner that previously predicted:
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/02/09/gallup-five-million-latin-americans-coming-u-s-next-12-months/

“Five million Latin Americans plan to migrate to the United States in the next 12 months, and an estimated 42 million more say they want to enter the country. Those statistics were in a report from Jim Clifton, the chairman and CEO at Gallup: Forty-two million seekers of citizenship or asylum are watching to determine exactly when and how is the best time to make the move. This suggests that open borders could potentially attract 42 million Latin Americans. A full 5 million who are planning to move in the next 12 months say they are moving to the U.S.”

To The Australian        News from the UK ("Europe at a loss as vote shatters May's strategy", 16-17/2) continues to suggest that the decision of the 2016 referendum for leaving the UK is being subverted carefully and cleverly by powerful interests. Mrs May (a Remain advocate in 2016) is implicated. The strategy, organized from behind the scenes, appears to have been chosen to make the treachery as little obvious as possible. First, cause a long delay. Second, produce a "Brexit plan" which is really a Remain document. Third, if this is rejected, hand over control to the Remain majority in the present Parliament, which will block a "no deal exit" and introduce a second referendum. Alas, Nigel Farage's last minute creation of a "Brexit Party" to fight any new elections will probably fail to stem the avalanche of well-funded Remain propaganda. Reversal of the 2016 result will be deceitfully presented as "democracy" and the UK, its independent sovereignty finally lost, will fall under the same intellectual and moral tyranny that is a fundamental aspect of the EU.

     Once upon a time, one would have been dismissed as paranoid, delusional, and other things, for thinking that one’s electronic appliance were watching you. Not now, for insanity becomes the reality:
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2019/02/07/report-popular-iphone-apps-including-expedia-and-abercrombie-fitch-secretly-record-users-screens/

“Popular iPhone apps, including Expedia, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Air Canada, are reportedly secretly recording users’ screens. According to TechCrunch, apps for companies including Expedia, Air Canada, and Hollister “are recording every tap and swipe you make on their iPhone apps.” “TechCrunch has found several popular iPhone apps, from hoteliers, travel sites, airlines, cell phone carriers, banks and financiers, that don’t ask or make it clear — if at all — that they know exactly how you’re using their apps,” TechCrunch reported. “Worse, even though these apps are meant to mask certain fields, some inadvertently expose sensitive data.” Abercrombie & Fitch, Hotels.com, and Singapore Airlines also reportedly “use Glassbox, a customer experience analytics firm, one of a handful of companies that allows developers to embed ‘session replay’ technology into their apps.” “These session replays let app developers record the screen and play them back to see how its users interacted with the app to figure out if something didn’t work or if there was an error,” explained TechCrunch, adding, “Every tap, button push, and keyboard entry is recorded — effectively screenshotted — and sent back to the app developers.”

To The Age        Nova Peris challenges people unsympathetic to Aboriginal aspirations "to stand in an Aboriginal person's shoes" ("Lunch with Nova Peris", 16/2), which is fair enough, but I ask her to stand in turn in the shoes of those of us Australians who are devoted to our history of British civilization and loath to see it go. Born in Melbourne and not qualifying for UK citizenship, I have only one nation in which to live and call my own. I want it to retain everything of good that British settlement brought to it, including monarchical government and the free way of life that is a part of British culture. We can love and honour the contribution made and still being made to the Australia of today by Aboriginal history and tradition; but do not ask us to include in that the foolish dismantling of a constitution and political order that has kept our land unstained by tyranny.

     Roger Stone is/was a political consultant, and his sin against the Deep State was to allegedly collaborate with Wikileaks fonder Julian Assange, during the 2016 presidential campaign to discredit the Deep State’s chosen candidate, Hillary Clinton. Have a close look at the videos above, while they still remain up. Even Hollywood would be hard pressed to match the viciousness of the Deep State agents, who undertake a military assault on an old person. The corruption of the main stream media is evident by their support of these para-military operations against someone who offered no resistance at all, and had no weapons. The media is ready to support these sorts of raids, and probably South American- style summary executions in the future, provided that the one’s being killed are nationalists.

     Enter a whole new theatre of the absurd, with Dr Victoria Bateman, feminist, academic, anti-Brexit economist, and whatever, debating in the nude:

“Cambridge University economist who suddenly stripped naked in the Radio 4 studio. Dr Victoria Bateman, a fellow in economics at Gonville and Caius College, who regularly delivers lectures in the nude, surprised the veteran host when she disrobed and then challenged Jacob Rees-Mogg to a Brexit debate without any clothes on. Humphrys, who said, startled, 'oh, I see you're naked', told listeners that Dr Bateman had the words 'Brexit Leaves Britain Naked' painted across her body. It is not known whether the BBC was aware that Dr Bateman had intended to strip during the interview which saw her arrive wearing a coat and then disrobe in front of an unsuspecting Humphrys. Cambridge economist Dr Victoria Bateman appeared on BBC Radio 4's Today programme this morning while naked to debate Brexit with host John Humphrys. Listeners claimed he clearly struggled on air while interviewing the married Dr Bateman - who described Brexit as Britain's 'Emperor's New Clothes' moment. During the terse five-minute interview, Humphrys accused the academic of undermining her argument by not wearing clothes as well as offending the sensibilities of the vast majority of the British public. Dr Bateman was interviewed following an exchange on Twitter yesterday with Piers Morgan when she uploaded a video discussing women's freedom and rights across the world while standing in the nude.”

The Greenie pests are having a dream run. First Greenie Climatists destroyed reliable coal-fired power stations, trying to replace them with intermittent wind-solar toys and a giant $90M battery. Then a Greenie PM donated $444M to a Greenie group to discourage industry near the Great Barrier Reef. Then drought helped Greenie water-wasters to kill rural industries from Townsville to Broken Hill. Then floods in the wild rivers of the north devastated much of what was left. Decades of Greenie opposition to new dams made both drought and flood disasters worse. Then Greenie mismanagement of parks, forests and grasslands helped fuel even more destructive bush fires. And recently a Judge used Greenie propaganda to kill a new coal mine in NSW, and a Greenie academic used a finchy story to add to the ten year delay to the Adani Coal Mine. Now the lights are going out and jobs are disappearing. The looming elections provide an opportunity to get rid of this plague of Greenie pests.

     Cubbie Station cops the blame for all of the problems of the Darling River, particularly by green journalists, politicians, and residents of Menindee and Broken Hill. It is blamed for fish kills, lack of water for Broken Hill, irrigators’ problems etc – it is a wonder it is not blamed for the drought. So I decided to look into the matter, reading media and company reports, studying the geography and topography and having discussions with three people who have on-the-ground and inside experience (but no vested interest) in Cubbie. I have had no contacts whatsoever with the current owners or managers of Cubbie, did not visit the operation and have no shares in their operation. Cubbie Station, the largest irrigation property in the southern hemisphere, is located near Dirranbandi, in south west Queensland, Australia. It is situated on the almost level flood plains of the Culgoa and Balonne rivers. It was converted from grazing to cotton farming in 1983.

     It was developed by a visionary earth moving contractor, Des Stevenson, and after his death was owned by his family. The family cotton farm was sent bankrupt by the Millennium Drought (1997-2009) with 5 years without a flow in the rivers. Cubbie went into voluntary administration in October 2009. Ironically the catchment received flooding rains in March 2010 and again in January 2011. Cubbie was sold by the administrators to a Chinese textile consortium led by Shandong Ruyi in 2012 with a private Melbourne firm Lempriere holding 20%. ALP Treasurer Wayne Swan approved the deal. There were conditions that the Chinese consortium sell down its stake from 80 per cent to 51 per cent. A recent rearrangement has left Dubbo businessman Roger Fletcher holding the 20 per cent stake and the Chinese consortium applying for more time to complete the sell down.

     Natural News.com, has been publishing a series of articles, basically making the case that the establishment is literally Satanic, that there is a connection between paedophilic activities and the elites.

  https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-02-11-apple-demands-natural-news-stop-writing-about-abortions-or-satanism.html

“In a series of shocking “demand” emails containing screen captures showing lists of Natural News articles, Apple has demanded Natural News stop publishing articles critical of abortions or Satanism, threatening to block the Natural News app from all Apple devices if Apple’s demands are not met. This is the first time that a dominant tech company has overtly come out in defense of Satanism while threatening to censor a prominent publisher that exposes the evils of Satanic influence. Many people will see this as yet more proof that Apple, along with other tech giants, is literally aligned with Satan and is exploiting its power of censorship to silence those who criticize Satanism. With Democrats now openly pushing infanticide and the legalization of the serial killing of infants, tech giants like Apple are serving as the censorship “speech police” to silence all criticism of the gruesome practice. In threatening Natural News over our coverage of infanticide and abortions, Apple is staking out the position of being pro-infanticide, and anyone who dares to speak up for innocent children is deemed by Apple to be engaged in “hate speech.”
