We have been screaming about the coming bad times and the need for people to either do something to prevent it, and/or prepare for the great train wreck, and the fast train coming of global socialism/communism, which will be planted in post-Trump America in 2020, where it will spread instantly to Australia, and kill us all. What can we do?

     Fighting depression, heart disease, diabetes, syndrome X, Y and Z, as well as many pathologies unknown to modern science, I am back with a bright, fresh and shining article about the flat Earth theory. Well, no not really, just about the freedom to expound on controversial things. One, it was not controversial to believe, and say that the Earth was flat. Now, although it is not yet illegal, Big Tech is clamping down on it, having put the big stomping boots onto race/gender/immigration issues, that maybe 50 years ago, would have ben uncontroversial. It is all about power and who runs the great cesspool of society.

     Anyway, Mike Adams is not going to censor flat Earth videos, and that makes my day;

     Well, looky see, those objective climate scientist are doing all sorts of weird and less-than-wonderful things to the basic data, and bingo, global warming and climatic catastrophe. Just like magic:

“More warming adjustments from ACORN2. Once again we find that the oldest thermometers were apparently reading artificially high even though many were newish in 1910 and placed in approved Stevenson screens.)  This is also despite the additional urban warming effect of a population that grew 400% since then. What are the odds?! Fortunately, gifted , sorry scientists have uncovered the true readings from the old biased thermometers which they explain carefully in a 67 page impenetrable document. Chris Gillham has soldiered through the new “ACORN 2? adjustments that the Australian Bureau of Meteorology has o-so-quietly released and Australians are just waking up to find that our coldest mornings back in 1910 were even colder than anyone realized at the time. Graham Lloyd is  reporting in The Australian how the second rewrite in six years increases the warming by 23% . (Where was the ABC announcement?)

     Most John Wayne fans knew about this along ago, but in a 1971 interview with Playboy magazine, iconic actor John Wayne said that he supported “white supremacy”: 
  https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/john-waynes-family-responds-to-actors-controversial-1971-interview-with-playboy

“Wayne was also asked about educator/activist Angela Davis and discrimination. He responded, “With a lot of blacks, there’s quite a bit of resentment along with their dissent, and possibly rightfully so. But we can’t all of a sudden get down on our knees and turn everything over to the leadership of the blacks. I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don’t believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people.” Lewis then shot back at Wayne, asking if the actor was equipped to judge “which blacks are irresponsible and which of their leaders inexperienced.” Wayne responded, “It’s not judgment. The academic community has developed certain tests that determine whether the blacks are sufficiently equipped scholastically. But some blacks have tried to force the issue and enter college when they haven’t passed the tests and don’t have the requisite background.”

     Concentration camps? Isn’t that a far-Right tin foil hat, whatever, idea? No, apparently not, because hidden in the heart of darkness of the progressives is a darker desire to kill, crush and destroy, cuddly creatures like us. And, here I was thinking that they loved diversity and only wanted to help us see the eternal lights of multicultural harmony! Apparently, not so:
  https://libertyhangout.org/2019/02/ucla-students-sign-petition-to-put-trump-supporters-in-concentration-camps/

“Kaitlin Bennett went undercover at UCLA as Jenna Talia to ask students to sign a petition to throw conservatives into involuntary re-education camps. Not only were the students she approached ecstatic to sign it, but one member of UCLA’s student government encouraged her to change the language to “diversity” and “sensitivity training” to hide their real intentions so the administration would approve it.”

     Welcome to Clown world, where, “you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqPtz5qN7HM

     There is a story in circulation, that Jussie Smollett, B-Grade actor who engaged in making false police report alleging that he had been almost lynched by Trump supporters, has been offered a job at CNN:

     The philosopher in question is Alain Finkielkraut, and this is what he said:
  https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/02/24/french-philosopher-jews-first-victims-of-islamic-immigration/

“French Jewish philosopher Alain Finkielkraut has claimed that the populist movement in Europe has largely been a reaction to demographic changes, blaming German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Finkielkraut labelled Chancellor Merkel’s infamous “wir schaffen das!” (we can do it!) phrase during the height of the migrant crisis in 2015 as “nonsense”, saying, “You see it yourself: you cannot do it. This mix of extreme moralism and economic interests was repugnant,” Die Welt reports. “The Germans wanted to buy themselves free and finally become a morally impeccable people. But that happens at the expense of the Jews, who are the first victims, as more and more immigrants are let in,” he added. Last Saturday Finkielkraut was the victim of anti-semitic abuse hurled at him by a Gilets Jaunes (Yellow Vest) protestor who was later revealed to be an Islamic extremist. Commenting on the attack, Finkielkraut said: “We are now trying to convince ourselves that this is a reawakening of old nationalist and anti-Semitic combat calls such as ‘France belongs to us’, ‘France for the French’.”

     This is something which I had not considered; the psychological effects of those plebs working for Big Tech, censoring all of us.

FINDINGS
•    Moderators in Phoenix will make just $28,800 per year — while the average Facebook employee has a total compensation of $240,000.
•    In stark contrast to the perks lavished on Facebook employees, team leaders micro-manage content moderators’ every bathroom break. Two Muslim employees were ordered to stop praying during their nine minutes per day of allotted “wellness time.”
•    Employees can be fired after making just a handful of errors a week, and those who remain live in fear of former colleagues returning to seek vengeance. One man we spoke with started bringing a gun to work to protect himself.
•    Employees have been found having sex inside stairwells and a room reserved for lactating mothers, in what one employee describes as “trauma bonding.”
•    Moderators cope with seeing traumatic images and videos by telling dark jokes about committing suicide, then smoking weed during breaks to numb their emotions. Moderators are routinely high at work.
•    Employees are developing PTSD-like symptoms after they leave the company, but are no longer eligible for any support from Facebook or Cognizant.
•    Employees have begun to embrace the fringe viewpoints of the videos and memes that they are supposed to moderate. The Phoenix site is home to a flat Earther and a Holocaust denier. A former employee tells us he no longer believes 9/11 was a terrorist attack.”

     I am a bit of a fringe dweller at this site, being a full-on survivalist, so I am grateful for all putting up with my rantings and ravings. I do not know what is going to finish of modern society, but I feel some Spenglerian breakdown will occur, if for no other reason than poetic justice; our kind built the world, held it in our hands, then let it slide into the dust of death, which could come from many different ways:
  http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20190218-are-we-on-the-road-to-civilisation-collapse

“Great civilisations are not murdered. Instead, they take their own lives. So concluded the historian Arnold Toynbee in his 12-volume magnum opus A Study of History. It was an exploration of the rise and fall of 28 different civilisations. He was right in some respects: civilisations are often responsible for their own decline. However, their self-destruction is usually assisted. The Roman Empire, for example, was the victim of many ills including overexpansion, climatic change, environmental degradation and poor leadership. But it was also brought to its knees when Rome was sacked by the Visigoths in 410 and the Vandals in 455. Collapse is often quick and greatness provides no immunity. The Roman Empire covered 4.4 million sq km (1.9 million sq miles) in 390. Five years later, it had plummeted to 2 million sq km (770,000 sq miles). By 476, the empire’s reach was zero.”
If it happened once, then why not again, for the Roman thought that they were invincible too, just like our scribblers?

     Sometimes at night, once I finally get to sleep after tossing and turning for eight hours, if I am lucky, I wake in fright, drenched in sweat, even if it is a freezing cold Melbourne night, having had the nightmare that I will have to teach in the morning.

  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/02/19/redfored-socialists-organizing-teachers-to-turn-purple-states-blue-2020/

“A well-funded and subversive leftist movement of teachers in the United States threatens to tilt the political balance nationwide in the direction of Democrats across the country as Republicans barely hang on in key states that they need to hold for President Donald Trump to win re-election and for Republicans to have a shot at retaking the House and holding onto their Senate majority. This teacher’s union effort, called #RedforEd, has its roots in the very same socialism that President Trump vowed in his 2019 State of the Union address to stop, and it began in its current form in early 2018 in a far-flung corner of the country before spreading nationally. Its stated goals–higher teacher pay and better education conditions–are overshadowed by a more malevolent political agenda: a leftist Democrat uprising designed to flip purple or red states to blue, using the might of a significant part of the education system as its lever. The movement takes its name from a political organizing tool first seen in Florida in 2010, when teacher’s union members wore red to express political opposition to public school reform proposals under consideration at that time in the state and encouraged parents and political activists from other unions to join them.”

     After reading this, recognising that I am a fringe dweller, I have decided that I had better not associate with myself:
  https://www.theage.com.au/business/companies/facebook-targeting-of-extremists-fringe-movements-in-australia-stokes-civil-unrest-fears-20190220-p50yyn.html

“Facebook enabled advertisers to target Australians who have expressed an interest in extremist ideologies including "fascism", raising concerns the social media platform could be used to stoke civil unrest and destabilise local politics. Ahead of a Federal Election expected to be contested heavily on border protection, Facebook's advertising tools could, as of last week, also be used to target Australians interested in "opposition to immigration" and "nationalism", the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age have confirmed.’

     Looks like Trump is in trouble again for kissing Black beauties, and it serves him right if he goes down for rape, is impeached, loses the presidency to Bernie Hillary Clanton, and him and all of his family, except Jared the Great, and all of his supporters too, get tossed into jail, or the sea, as punishment for not supporting the religion of global warming:
  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/former-campaign-staffer-accuses-trump-of-kissing-her-without-consent-in-2016

“An Alabama woman who worked on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign claimed in a Monday lawsuit that Trump kissed her “without her consent” in front of multiple people during a political event in Florida in 2016 – an accusation the White House is denying. The woman, Alva Johnson, filed suit Monday against Trump and his presidential campaign in federal court in Tampa. The lawsuit said Johnson served as the campaign’s director of outreach and coalitions for the state of Alabama, before working to help Trump in Florida during the general election.  “To Defendant Trump, however, Ms. Johnson was nothing more than a sexual object he felt entitled to dominate and humiliate,” the lawsuit states. “Like he has done with so many other women, Defendant Trump violated norms of decency and privacy by kissing Ms. Johnson on the lips without her consent in the middle of a Florida work event and in front of numerous other Campaign officials.” White House press secretary Sarah Sanders, in a statement to Fox News, called the allegation “absurd on its face.”

     One of my as yet unfulfilled ambitions in life is to create super-smart rat cyborgs that can be steered through a maze with the power of human thought. And now, our friendly Chinese overlords, bless them, have done just that, so now I can die in peace:

  http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/d-brief/2019/02/14/researchers-control-rat-cyborgs-with-their-minds/#.XHRlvYgzaUn

“I’ll just come right out and say it: Scientists have created human-controlled rat cyborgs. Lest you think this is some media sensationalism at work, here’s the actual title of the paper under discussion, which came out last week in Scientific Reports: “Human Mind Control of Rat Cyborg’s Continuous Locomotion with Wireless Brain-to-Brain Interface.” That pretty much says it all. Some of this tech — such as brain-brain interfaces (BBIs) and rat cyborgs — is nothing new in science, so in a way this just a small step in an already existing race. But, put another way: people are controlling rat cyborgs with their freaking brains now. Wirelessly.

     I could not watch the Oscars, something of an ultimate nightmare for a Right-winger like me, but the reports had the acting class squawking Trump-racist, racism, more Oscars for blacks, racism, and the like, while the gathered pretenders all expressed high moral shock over racism etc. Trump even gave a tweet about it; the Oscars were so over the top. I don’t know if he watched it while eating burgers and chips, or subjected an intern to such torture, but the numbers of people watching the Oscars has crashed in recent years, taking a nose-dive, in direct proportion to political correctness.

     India and Pakistan are at each other’s throats again, and the worry is that there will be yet another war, with a nuclear exchange. Of course, that will mean that the West will be flooded with millions, if not a billion refugees, bringing about the collapse of the world as we know it. I wonder how the Left, Liberals and ruling elites will confront such a collapse, even hiding inside their walled citadels? They still need to get resources at some point, even in a hundred years.
  https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/02/28/an-indo-pakistan-war-would-create-the-great-refugee-crisis-ever/

“During the Partition of India and Pakistan around 14 million people were displaced. Around the world today there are – according to UNHCR – around 68.5 million displaced people. But this would be as nothing to the potential refugee problem should there be a hot war between India and Pakistan. To appreciate how bad it would be, we have only to extrapolate from what happened after the wars in Iraq and Syria. The Iraq wars have reportedly displaced at least three million people and left 8.7 million people in need of humanitarian aid; the Syrian war has driven five million refugees outside Syria and displaced another six million people within its borders. Syria had a pre-war population of 22 million. So that’s nearly a quarter of the population which fled the country.

     This is why guns need to be banned, not only for ordinary people, but especially the police and the state. Illegals and criminals, of course, should be permitted to retain their weapons, maybe even given more weapons, perhaps nuclear bombs too. Simply watch this video and ask  how could one not be convinced of the irrefutable logic of gun-banning?

     Cold Civil War is already underway in the US of A, with patriots being deplatformed, having sites shut down ,and entire libraries of books removed from on-line publication, and censored:

“President Trump is supposedly “in power,” but the 2016 victory has proved nothing short of a disaster for ordinary patriots. A wave of deplatforming, Antifa attacks, and media doxxng operations has followed, with essentially no pushback from the Establishment Right. This Corporate Cultural Marxism has now reached the First Family itself. Donald Trump Jr. was recently censored by Instagram, as was RNC spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany. Chronicling these and other incidents in an article for RealClearPolitics, Donald Trump Jr. wrote: As the Smollett hoax illustrates, the political Left and Establishment Journalists want nothing more than to return to a world in which their narrative is the only one that matters–and the truth is whatever they decree it to be. He’s right of course, and the campaign is accelerating. On Tuesday, two more major conservative figures deplatformed. Anti-Islamization activist Tommy Robinson was kicked off Facebook only days after exposing that the BBC worked with antifa activists at HOPE Not Hate to create a “Tommy Takedown” Raheem Kassam, former editor of Breitbart London and a well-known conservative activist, was also kicked off Facebook. (He was eventually let back after protests from, among others, Donald Trump Jr.). [Facebook briefly bans former Nigel Farage chief Raheem Kassam, by Rudy Takala, The Daily Caller, February 26, 2019].”

     The ruling elites have known for thousands of years, that the plebs will take a lot before they crack, and will only be a problem if there is some Spartacus (111-71 BC) to lead their slave revolt. That is why much energy of the elites is put into humiliating President Trump, to make an example of him, and why various smaller Alt Right figures are getting their sites closed down, and some imprisoned. See, resistance is impossible, just lie back and decay.  You can’t win, they say:

“The political Left in America today now openly advocates the murder of living human babies, even after they’re born. This is part of the new abortion legislation that has been passed and signed into law in both New York and Vermont… and the entire idea of killing human babies in the name of “women’s rights” is spreading to more states, much to the applause of Democrats who cheer the new “right” to kill babies with your bare hands. One abortionist recently told a former patient they would, “break the baby’s neck” if it survived an abortion attempt, reports LifeSiteNews: The woman said she asked the two abortionists, “If you guys were to take him out right now while he’s still, his heart rate is still, you know, going, what would you guys do?” She said one of the abortionists looked at the other one, then looked back at her, “and she told me that we don’t tell women this, and a lot of women don’t even ask this question, but if we was to proceed with the abortion and the baby was to come out still alive and active, most likely we would break the baby’s neck.”

     At least something good came from the Banking Royal Commission, with the recommendation of criminal charges against three financial institutions, and the need to investigate 15 more, which is some indication of what has been going on:

“Kenneth Hayne has recommended criminal charges against three financial institutions and asked for investigations into 15 more in a final -report that sets up an election ¬battle between the Morrison government and Labor over which party can be tougher on the banks. The royal commissioner made 76 recommendations involving sweeping changes to laws governing the ¬financial industry in a bid to put an end to misconduct uncovered by the royal commission that included institutions charging dead people fees, banks turfing hundreds of farmers from their land and selling unwanted funeral ¬insurance to a man with Down syndrome. The royal commission heard explosive revelations that some of Australia’s largest financial institutions repeatedly lied to regu¬lators and charged fees where no service was provided, a practice that has left them exposed to a possible compensation bill of up to $2 billion Josh Frydenberg yesterday declared that the banks had been “driven by greed”. “From today, the banking sector must change.

“On this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” nationally syndicated conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh said President Donald Trump was right to declare a national emergency on the U.S.-Mexico border to build a wall. Limbaugh, “We have an emergency. This is an invasion. The very existence and definition of American culture, American society, the rule of law. Why does nobody talk about the fact that millions and millions and millions of people are breaking the law coming here illegally and that the Democrat Party wants that to happen?” He added, “It is undeniable that we have a major immigration problem and a political party that needs a permanent underclass of voters that wants that parade of illegal people who are uneducated, don’t even speak the language, they want them here. It is a crisis.”
