It has been my thesis for many a year, that the universities are the breeding ground of most of the diseases of the mind harming society, and that the best way of dealing with this is by the time proven method of quarantine, closing down the sites of infection and disinfecting them, by making them into vocational training centres. This disease model of the university could be called by the fancy name, the “epidemiological model of the university,” the study of the spread of mind viral diseases. Here is some more decadence form the US, soon to be practiced in Australia, no doubt:

“Reed College leaders have agreed to revise a mandatory freshman humanities course focused on the Western Canon in the wake of a protracted student protest campaign against the class that decried it as too “Caucasoid” and “Eurocentric.” Although details are still being hashed out, faculty appear to have agreed to broaden the scope of the course to allow for more authors of color and to study thinkers from geographic locations beyond Europe.

“We are rapidly headed toward digital superintelligence that far exceeds any human, I think it’s pretty obvious,” Musk said in a new AI documentary called “Do You Trust This Computer?” directed by Chris Paine (who interviewed Musk previously for the documentary “Who Killed The Electric Car?”). “If one company or a small group of people manages to develop godlike digital super-intelligence, they could take over the world.” Humans have tried to take over the world before. However, an authoritarian AI would have one terrible advantage over like-minded humans, Musk said.

     I got a perhaps a bit too emotional at Easter about the way the lying Western media have ignored the genocide and persecution of Christians occurring right now, and said that the “peak” of this is happening right now. It was pointed out to me that this is technically incorrect since there has been horrendous genocide and persecution of Christians throughout the world for a long time indeed. One contributor has said:

“I always appreciate the items by your writer Chris Knight. But I disagree with his The Peak of Christian Persecution and Genocide is. . .Now!(30-3-18) I don’t dispute his reporting of the present appalling mass murdering and persecutions of Christians in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere around the world. This needs wide reporting but the lying western mass media ignores it. However, from 1915 to 1923  around three quarters (about 1.5 million) of the ancient Armenian Christian people were slaughtered by the then Young Turks controlled Turkey… And what of the millions of Russian Christians killed in the early decades of the … Soviet dictatorship.”

     With knife attacks on the rise, almost everywhere, and knives being very hard to control, it would be prudent for people to begin to accept that we live in an unsafe, nay, dangerous, world and that it is necessary to adopt a philosophy of preparedness, or face this:

     The point has been reached where we simply have to saw: bs to these sorts of reports. The scientific validity of some link to Muhammad is impossible to establish, as there is no existing DNA, and most of the alleged historical links are pure speculation. Nevertheless, the reports serve the propaganda strategy of eroding public resistance to Islamisation, which no doubt is the main goal:

     American politics needs to be studied by us all because it is revealing in the most candid way of the machinations of the Deep State, and the elites who rule over us. President Trump is significant, because, even though he is ultimately doing the Deep State’s bidding, he is a symbol of resistance, so, while the elites use him, they also abuse him, as they take him down, to teach the deplorables a lesson, that they are to be slaves until genocided.

“As the state promises gun rights activists they’re not coming for their guns, behind the scenes they’re pleading for it to happen. And now the feared gun grab is occurring. Residents in Deerfield, Illinois have 60 days to surrender their “assault weapons” or face fines of $1000 per day per gun. The gun ban ordinance was passed on April 2nd with residents left with few choices of how to dispose of their valuable “assault weapons.” Upon careful reading of the ordinance, residents will be left with revolvers, .22 caliber “plinking” rifles, and double barrel shotguns to defend their homes and families from criminals who could care less about the law.

     In 2016 the capitalist superclass had half of the world’s wealth in their grubby hands, but by 2030 they will have grabbed 64 percent of the loot. Add to that growing unemployment and poverty… and I suppose that the only alternative will be for global genocide of ordinary people like you and me, probably by some kind of genetically engineered means, a true “zombie Apocalypse.” This will leave the planet free for them to loot and pillage to their heart’s desire – until they destroy that world too. Then off to Mars to start over, and destroy that as well. God, feel free to call a Second Coming at any time.

     The demographic displacement of Europe, primarily Western Europe, has been extensively written about. The following article gives a summary of some more recent thoughts about this, putting the “great surrender” down to a type of civilisational exhaustion:

“Stephen Bullivant, a professor of theology and the sociology of religion at St Mary’s University in London, recently published a report, “Europe’s Young Adults and Religion”: “Christianity as a default, as a norm, is gone, and probably gone for good – or at least for the next 100 years,” Bullivant said. According to Bullivant, many young Europeans “will have been baptised and then never darken the door of a church again. Cultural religious identities just aren’t being passed on from parents to children. It just washes straight off them...

“Just like something straight out of a post-apocalyptic horror film, scientists are now concerned that an Artificial Intelligence robot army that is currently being developed by a top South Korean university could potentially wipe out all of humanity. In February of this year, KAIST University allegedly launched a brand new AI weapons lab, which has thus far led dozens of researchers to believe that the technology being developed there will “have the potential to be weapons of terror.” One of these researchers is Toby Walsh, a professor at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, who argued in an open letter:

“It seems as though the liberals always find a way to complain about something – if it’s not racist, then its sexist, and if it’s not sexist, then it’s somehow an example of “toxic masculinity.” Take the left-leaning television show The Big Bang Theory, for example, which two (presumably liberal) professors are now attacking for its display of what they are calling “toxic geek masculinity.” That’s right – even progressive-leaning television programs aren’t safe from the social justice crowd. In their new book “Toxic Geek Masculinity in Media: Sexism, Trolling, and Identity Politics,” authors Bridget Blodgett of the University of Maryland and Anastasia Salter of the University of Central Florida argue that contrary to popular belief, computer geeks aren’t a marginalized group; rather, they are aligned “with a type of toxic straight white masculinity that is rooted deeply in current cultural struggles.”

     April 10, 1796, is one proposed birthdate for American frontier man Jim Bowie, who gained fame as a knife fighter, died at the Battle of the Alamo, and was creator of the legendary Bowie knife, made even more famous by this iconic scene in Crocodile Dundee:

     Yep, that is a knife. For men over the age of 18 suffering from low T, “soy boy” syndrome, perhaps if it is still legal in your state, purchase of a Bowie knife on EBay may be of use for dressing your meat, when you change to a paleo diet. Never ever, think about issues of self-defence, because you have no right to self-defence with any weapon, except, perhaps, a strand of wet spaghetti. What would Jim think about the world of today?

“Chinese communist leader Xi Jinping met United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in Beijing this weekend and reportedly urged the leader to further promote “global governance” to solve the world’s problems. Xi has explicitly expressed a desire to see China become the “keeper of the international order,” defining and enforcing international law.”

Yawn, who cares anymore? What matters is who will win the footie on the weekend. Both here, and in Britain.

     We must all be feeling truly sad about this one, which the Americans are calling a “freak accident.” I sincerely hope that they are not making fun out of this, because these muscle tears are extremely painful and nothing to be laughing about, because they can end a sports career, as I found out, when I slipped over in the bath many decades ago, ending my bowls career:

     Anyway, former male athletes who transition to women, and compete in women’s sports seem to be doing just fine, smashing record after record. This is surely a victory for anti-discrimination, and perhaps one day soon, ALL women’s sport will be dominated by such wonderful athletes, which will advance gender rights by light years. How could coaches of women’s sports possibly, by any stretch of the imagination, be objecting to this great advancement in gender diversity? It utterly mystifies me.

     Here is a very good article, one which speaks for itself by leading US law scholar, Alan Dershowitz, about the invasion of the FBI into Trump’s lawyer’s office, searching for dirt on the latest Trump scandal. The learned professor, tells us here about the constitutional consequences of the raid, and the relationship between the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendments. To briefly explain: the Fourth  Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures; the Fifth Amendment protects  individual’s against being witnesses against themselves, and the Sixth Amendment deals with rights in criminal trials, such as the need for a speedy trial. 
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/12154/donald-trump-michael-cohen

“The Fifth Amendment is an exclusionary rule. By its terms, it prevents material obtained in violation of the privilege of self-incrimination from being used to incriminate a defendant – that is to convict him of a crime. But the Fourth and Sixth Amendments provide far broader protections: they prohibit government officials from in any way intruding on the privacy of lawyer/client confidential rights of citizens. In other words, if the government improperly seizes private or privileged material, the violation has already occurred, even if the government never uses the material from the person from whom it was seized. Not surprisingly, therefore, firewalls and taint teams were developed in the context of the Fifth Amendment, not the Fourth or Sixth Amendments.

The Simulation Argument

      Philosophers, and some physicists have speculated about the world not being “real” as we normally think but being a computer simulation, as seen in the Matrix movies. For example, British philosopher Nick Bostrom wrote a now iconic paper, “Are You Living in a computer Simulation? Philosophical Quarterly, vol. 53, 2003, pp. 243-255. There he reasoned that with runaway technological advancements in computing power, and the reaching of a singularity producing post-human superintelligences, the post-human civilisation may run ancestor simulation on their computers. Given the standard assumption in the materialist paradigm of the philosophy of mind, that these simulated minds would be conscious (minds are just computers), then it could well be that the vast majority of minds like ours could actually be simulations, and given the vast number of simulations run, it would be more likely that we are among the simulated minds, rather than the original biological minds.
