Posted on a Telegram resistance page about a recent discussion

Setting the dates, the main thing is that it needs to be as soon as possible.  I was/am hoping that March 21 would be the start date, or even March 20 because people might as well start on Monday.  So maybe the target date should be next Monday and encourage people to start earlier if they can.

How to get the message out, that's where I draw a blank.  No idea if internet is workable, what other options are there?  Just put notes on trees, windows, people's doors?  Trust that everybody can pass the message along in conversation?  That last option is workable, revolutionaries and underground movements have always used something like that.

My other recommendation is that we work out a command structure similar to an Army unit.  Human nature means there will be single commanders, but hopefully we can get multiple people.  S-1 as a staff, S-2 as intelligence, S-3 as connection to other units, S-4 as supply/funding, etc.  My 10 years in the Army was limited to one unit and it wasn't "regular Army" so I'm limited in what other options could work but at least I know of something about 'non-regular' units.  I really think that's the sort of thing we need, especially for setting up a resistance.

Two more ideas that are less important, but I might as well throw them in.  First of all, barter and trade will obviously return on a large scale but something will need to be worked out regarding currency.  I do think the US dollar is the best option we have for the time being.  People who know more about money than I do can work out better alternatives, but individual units will need a measurable way to interact.  Farmers can provide food, everybody needs that, but what about medical care, transportation, mechanical ability for trade?

Second, most of the veterans involved would have t-shirts or some sort of souvenir with their particular unit's logo on that.  It might be most effective to just sew one of each together as a guidon representing each unit.  It would be distinctive, each unit would be different, yet recognizable.  I'll make up an example, but a former-Marine looking for help or connection might see a Marine logo on the guidon and would know that there's someone there he could talk to in ways he couldn't with other branches.  There's going to be a lot of desperation out there and none of us are immune.

Why is Linus never in the sky with diamonds?

Saw an article quoting Variety that the new Captain Marvel movie would be a "so-so" success, estimating $40 million at 4,000 theaters on opening weekend, Friday through Sunday.  If each ticket costs $7, that's 477 tickets sold each day at each theater.  Does all that money go to Warner Bros or do the theaters get to keep any?  Even if it all goes back to Warner Bros, they have to pay for promotion, staff, taxes and so on, it's not all profit.

477 tickets per day on opening weekend doesn't sound like a "so-so" result.  The first three days of the new Top Gun movie had $126,707,459 at 4735 theaters.  At 7 dollars each, that's 1275 tickets per theater per day.  I don't go to movies so I'm just guessing what tickets actually cost but if they're more than 7$, fewer people need to show up.

And looking it up, it seems Captain Marvel barely reached $30 million on opening weekend, 1/4 of what a "hit movie" made last year on opening weekend.  353 tickets per day per theater at $7 a ticket.  Are people going to come back and see it repeatedly?  Will they tell their friends how great it is and now their friends want to see it too?  Is there any chance of getting 500 people to show up to a theater and see this movie on the same day?

This doesn't look to me like "so-so" ticket sales, but I'm not Variety and I didn't see the early estimates, so maybe they know better.

I'm trying to figure out if this is similar to what's happened to Captain Marvel all these years.  He was created based on Superman's success but clearly not a rip-off.  Yet DC kept suing Fawcett over it until Fawcett went broke, and bought the characters.  Then Marvel had started becoming successful and started suing DC for using the character's name, which is why they finally made up that stupid "Shazam" title.

This is just lawyers causing problems for something no one else would care about.  Who cares if characters have the same names, people do that in real life.  And why hang on to these trademarks in the first place?  Just change the costume, the name and a few details and you've got a new character.  Warner and Disney are still acting like DC and Marvel always did and it's not good.

□ [“Anthony Fauci Blames Anti-Vaccine Mandate Republicans for Covid and Says He Will Break Their Will"]

Black people are telling him to his face that they aren't taking the poison but he can't blame him for that, they're just like children.  He blames Republicans because that's who black people listen to and everybody knows it, even though they're the least-vaccinated skin color.  He sure as hell isn't going to say anything about their freedom or their right to choose.  Democrats know best, just obey.

Have to admit, what with WWIII and the impending economic collapse and the arrest of Trump, I haven't been paying too much attention to the virus these days.  Several months ago, Biden said the pandemic was over anyway, but it's not like anyone listens to him.

I still wonder if this was deliberate from the start or if it just happened this way.  Yes, I take it as a given that China developed the virus and the vaccine was deliberate poison, but I still keep the option open that it was totally natural at the start and the rulers twisted it from there, just to get possible other perspectives.  It's like noticing that the flu was nonexistent for the last few years, it was covid making people sick.

□ [“Trump to Be Indicted Wednesday, Will Be Asked to Surrender for Arraignment Next Week"]

Why don't more criminals be treated this way?  Especially in New York City, given how their crime rates just keep going up.  30 murders in January 2023, why don't they announce the indictments and ask for them to surrender next week?  Rape, robbery, felony assault, burglary, grand larceny, and there were 73 shootings.  This shows what's really important in this city.

For that matter, why don't the statute of limitations apply here?  Falsifying business records is a misdemeanor that's only valid for two years.  *If* you can connect it to some felony, it can be used up to (I think) five years, which still isn't relevant for a 2016 crime, no matter what.  The DoJ and New York State never bothered to go with this despite all the years of investigations, why is NYC stuck with this and why now?

It's like our rulers are trying to get the stupidest option, to prove they can do anything they want no matter what, and there's no possible negative consequences for them.  They're even focusing everything on Michael Cohen, who actually committed the supposed crime and testified years ago that he didn't even tell Trump about it.  A lot more suspicious behavior went into putting the Steele Dossier together and when was the last time that was a big deal to liberals?  Hillary gave campaign money for it, wasn't that ever relevant?  Bueller?

This delay has been said to be because of some witness, but I'm not paying enough attention to even look into the details.  You'd think they would have all this in place, yet they don't for some reason, but are still pursuing it anyway?  And this is the best use of their time?  This is what they're paid for?

□ [“Bomb Threat Called In to Lower Manhattan Court Where Trump Hearing is Being Held"]

Of course.  Did they also leave messages of "white supremacy" and say Russia paid them to do it?  It demonstrates the success of our leftist rulers that we have absolutely no reason to trust any news they put out.  It was a 911 call to a courthouse, pretty sure they'd be able to track where the call came from.  Will they put up a fake criminal and add that to the charges against Trump or has this already been forgotten about?

There are protestors, not sure if any are in NYC itself, but in other places around the country.  I'm still not a supporter of those.  It might be useful to find allies and put together organizations and resistance, but I'd think there would be some better ways for that.  Not sure what, the internet is probably spied on and how else are you supposed to meet anybody?  Maybe I'm just complaining for its own sake.

Odd how this has taken over the news now, with much less about WWIII, the economy, the banks crashing, the virus, Hunter's laptop and all the rest of it.  Suddenly the only thing that matters is a fake court trying to find an excuse to go after the POTUS for a years-old misdemeanor.  But this is the show they're putting on to hide everything else they're doing.

□ [“The Lines Are Drawn – China and Russia Sign Major Economic Agreement Today"]

You could say Biden's entire career has been about erasing Richard Nixon's success in splitting these two nations up.  On the other hand, you could also say that nothing could keep these wacky peoples apart for long, they were meant for each other.  I'm not sure why you'd say that, but you say a lot of strange things.

For that matter, isn't this effectively doing the 'new world order' thing?  Unification?  They're already part of the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization, which liberals totally support and China/Russia are already part of, here's another branch for them to work on.  What are you going to do, say that any member of BRICS isn't allowed to be part of the "new world order"?  Go to war against a majority of the world's population, most of whom aren't white?

As the saying goes, you can what you want and still not be very happy.  And why didn't they do this under Trump, since we keep being told that he helped them so much?

□ [“Trump New York Grand Jury Wednesday Session Canceled After Bombshell Report that DA Bragg Withheld Evidence from Jury"]

I'm sure this doesn't end the charade, they'll just make up something else and keep going with it, but I really do wonder if this is having its own effect on the Trump-haters.  Just the fact that they've been going after him all these years and still haven't gotten anywhere has got to be depressing for anybody with the slightest common sense.  I get it, you'll say leftists don't have any common sense, but seriously, think about it.

From what we've heard of the charges they would be imposing, they'd long-passed the expiration date.  If there was anything to work with, Muller and all the other investigations could have used it then.  But instead they held off and let some Manhattan DA look stupid a few years later.  Just stealing classified information would put most people in jail on the spot, years of investigation by Congress, Mueller, etc.

There must be leftists who aren't incredibly rich and they would be having the same sort of problems the rest of us are going through on this day-to-day struggle.  They have to wonder why they're following these insane people obsessed with somebody that they never catch.  I get the impression that a lot of them are quietly turning away from leftism.  I have no real experience but it's always sounded like they don't break up from a big argument, people just disappear in the shadows.

But keep in mind, this is also the sort of thing that makes me worry Trump has always been on their side and we're the ones being set-up.  I'm fairly confident that isn't the case, but if I had any money, I wouldn't bet on it.

□ [“Soros-Backed Bragg’s Bogus Case Falling Apart Due to 'Major Dissention' in DA’s Office"]

It's not totally clear what the issue is.  Some articles say Michael Cohen's testimony isn't working, since he's already been convicted for saying he did everything and Trump had nothing to do with it.  It's also said that DA Alvin Bragg had flat-out hidden hundreds of pages of testimony from the Grand Jury because it contradicted his case.  That second one is more believable, but both of them start making you wonder how this guy became a prosecutor?  Is this the way he wins all cases?

And of course there's always commentary insisting that, after all this time, actual useful evidence has been found which nobody else had ever noticed before, and *now* it's going to set Trump up permanently.  They'd failed all the previous times because it was just a set-up, leading to this heroic victory.

None of this is giving the impression of a fairness in court.  It's like saying they can't have a trial because one of the jurors is refusing a bribe to vote "guilty."  I know Grand Juries are different than normal courts and I don't pretend to understand the difference, but this really does seem to be flailing at a loss.

□ [“Biden Tells Bizarre Story About Dr. Jill Putting Messages on His Mirror While He’s Shaving, ‘Stop Trying to Make Me Love You’"]

Well, that would explain a lot.  Why did she ever marry him in the first place, money and power?  Obviously that worked out, but she's probably sick of this and it's not like he's ever learned anything from the experience.

And how is anybody supposed to respond to this.  If you want Joe Biden taken seriously, then he really meant this, she actually wrote that on his mirror for him to read.  If he's just reading off a prompter, then it shows he has no idea what he's saying in public.  He gave no impression that he knew anyway, saying it was just a wacky joke between the two of them.  Instead he made it clear that she doesn't love him and he demonstrates that he's never noticed that.

What other alternative is there, that he's just babbling nonsense?  He doesn't know what he's saying so no one should pay attention to him?  That's believable but his supporters wouldn't like it.  Maybe they put that on people's bathroom mirrors all the time.

□ [“Bakhmut Falls, Artyomovsk Rises – Strategic and Symbolic City in Eastern Ukraine Fully Encircled by Russian Forces – Kiev Leaves 10k Soldiers Trapped in the ‘Cauldron'"]

Well Ukraine can get more soldiers to replace them, no big deal.  There's always more where they came from, at least if there only two genders, which Ukraine says there is but their supporters say there isn't, no idea how that works.

But what do you do when abandoning 10,000 men who fought for you?  How do you come to that decision?  It's like Biden ditching lots of US military in Afghanistan, that doesn't make the survivors happy.  How do you even explain it to their replacements?  "I'm willing to abandon you just as easily as I abandoned your predecessors, now get out there and fight!"  Even with all the endless victory celebrations of the last year, that has to hurt morale, at least a little bit.  Zelensky even called it the "the fortress of our morale" and has now abandoned his forces there.

And for what, this unimportant dust-spot of a town?  This place has no strategic or tactical benefits whatsoever, according to Ukraine.  It was a visiting-spot for Ivan the Terrible and Peter the Great, famous Ukrainians who always struggled against Russia's failed attempts to take over Ukraine.  It was part of Nazi Germany for just under two years, maybe they learned something from that experience.

Most impressive, Zelensky is forbidding his troops to surrender.  They will fight until they're dead and they don't get a say in the matter.  They can be punished for disobeying orders if they surrender and what other alternative is there?  NATO flying in for the rescue?  Russians deciding to abandon their standard practice of the last few thousand years?  Not likely.

Now Americans can get back to talking about the latest attempt to prosecute Trump.

□ [“Boy Transitioned to a Girl At Age 6 By His Stage Mom: 'I Don't Feel Like Myself [Anymore] Ever'"]

A six year old boy was mutilated by his mother and she's gotten to be on tv ever since.  I don't even want to guess how many other children have had this done to them for the last twenty years.  This is sickening in ways I rarely feel.

There should be a list of the doctors who are pushing this garbage onto children, so they can be found and removed from circulation as soon as possible.  I don't know what to do about the kids themselves, letting them live in misery sounds like the best option and just gets worse when you think about it, but the rest of these creatures...

I'm still hoping that there's a resistance movement coming soon.  God-fearing or just a bunch of Americans who have had enough, but we need these monsters on the list of people to be taken out.  I wouldn't vote for 'slowly and painfully' but it's definitely tempting.

“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.”

“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”

“Engage people with what they expect; it is what they are able to discern and confirms their projections. It settles them into predictable patterns of response, occupying their minds while you wait for the extraordinary moment — that which they cannot anticipate.”

China and the KBG officer in charge of Russia have obviously never heard of the guy who said that, which is why we've spent the last year being told how weak they are.

□ [“Thursday NYC Trump Grand Jury Session Abruptly Canceled"]

I do think they're having serious problems from something they didn't remotely expect or prepare for.  That said, preparation involves looking into as many options as possible, because you might be wrong about something and you want to see that in advance as much as possible.  So what possible options are there?

We know they had something planned because of Trump's statement and they didn't ignore it or just respond "There are no upcoming court dates or plans to arrest Trump."  It is quite possible that they had no plans to arrest Trump, but their audience showed immediate glee so there is the desire.  I have no idea what else they might have been preparing to accomplish this week.

Did they suddenly get some information on some other crime nobody had bothered to notice in all these years of investigation so now they're totally focused on that?  I suppose that's technically possible, but who would have waited all this time to give them the info and what would they have to say?  There's been a little chatter that it's related to the classified files, but that's something which would have been moved on immediately.  They didn't even take those files in the raid and that was last August.  They wouldn't need a NYC DA to handle it unless it was entirely worthless.

My guess is that Trump's statement was more of a message, whether to his supporters, his opponents or both.  And not to all of them either, only to elite members who would get what he was talking about.  I don't know if it was actually about an arrest but something else that uses the same words.

□ [“Biden:  'I Like Babies Better Than People'"]

So babies aren't people.  That is apparently official US policy now, even they aren't aborted, they're not human and can't be treated like they are.  His wife's a people, not a baby, so this may be a response to her denying any love for him.  She gave him babies, he gave her money and power, that's basically it.

Strange that this stuff is coming out now after all these decades.  Not that any of us want to know about it in the first place, but why are they telling everybody this?  Or at least why is Biden telling us this?  Is this where his mind goes when he's told to make a speech?  Is this what his speechwriters tell him to say?  Ok, that sounds really bizarre, no explanation for that, best back off for the time being.


23 March, 2023

□ [“JPMorgan Says US Probably Headed For Recession Amid Banking Crisis"]

I'd actually be fine using a new term instead of "recession."  Correct me if I'm wrong, but it was only introduced so people wouldn't compare economic problems to the Great Depression.  "Disaster" is probably *too* accurate, but something along those lines would be fine.

This was the goal all along, that much is obvious.  It's what Obama and Hillary were supposed to do, but for whatever reason they were delayed for four years, so their pet Biden doubles down.  They can't just believe that everybody will magically wake up one day and be leftists and it's becoming clearer every day that they can't just impose their will on the nation, much less the whole world.

The big worry is that they're planning to kill several billion people so they can rule the survivors.  I don't have a clue what their plans are, but I think it's idiotic to assume they don't have forces in motion to reach that goal as soon as possible.  But I'm also worried that they have less-important goals in mind, molesting children, banning everyone else from using fossil fuels, pretend-money, stolen elections, etc.

Basically I can't get away from the impression that they have some larger plan in mind - besides erasing most of us from existence - and even the economy crises are just stepping-stones.  They already rule most of the world, technically, and have an increasing number of men-with-guns to impose their will on the rest of us.  They probably are a demon-worshipping cult, but I don't get how that would translate into the daily increase in misery they're imposing on us.

□ [“New Normal:  Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania Work on Legislations to Have More Defibrillator Access in Schools"]

Oh look, someone has finally gotten around to thinking they should do something about all the deaths from "suddenly" that weren't happening a few years ago.  No idea if this will get anywhere in the legislatures, but I would think smaller groups are hopefully working on things like this.

At this point, I have to think people should start finding out who their friends are and working out who they can rely on when things get bad.  Make sure they've been gathering back-up supplies, make sure everybody is in contact with each other.  Work out code words if you need them.  Perhaps even form an actual group and start working out plans, "when things go bad, grab your stuff and we'll meet here."

I have no idea how workable it would be for people, but maybe you could all meet in one place this weekend to discuss preparations and plans.  Or just do it in 2's and 3's.  Or meet on livechat.  But we clearly cannot trust the government at any level and who else can we rely on when everything falls apart?  I'm surprised it hasn't already happened, I was expecting that to be the point of Trump's announcement.

I have no idea what plans will work and I assume different plans will work differently for different groups.  The best I can hope for is that some groups have good enough plans that they have a chance to survive what's coming up.

□ [“The Bidens Tells Canadian Governor General 'It’s Been Really Warm Because of Global Warming in the United States'"]

Ok, what is this?  It was "global warming" when I was in school being told about it.  Before that, it was "global cooling."  Then it became "climate change" because they needed the same solution but "warming" and "cooling" don't work that way.  But all of a sudden, it's "global warming" again?

It can't be a coincidence, Jill and Joe both using the term that hasn't been used in decades.  Except for yesterday when the UN Secretary-General used the term, saying "Global warming is a global warning that we are on the wrong track.  And melting glaciers are the canary in the coalmine."

My first thought is this is some sort of code word.  Why else would three people of the highest elites on the planet suddenly go back to the 80s/90s for their terminology, the same phrase at the same time?  Anyone 'in the know' will get whatever they're talking about, the rest of us will ignore them and go on with our miserable lives.

We know they use codewords, they're all gays and spies, that's part of the job requirement.  I was wondering if that was what Trump was doing in his announcement of being arrested.  I also thought that explained his reaction just before declaring his candidacy for POTUS.  I don't remember the specific video and it's been a long time since I've seen it, but it was a Comedy Central Celebrity Roast or something like that, where Hillary was the speaker and said something.  Maybe it was just the editing, and I don't remember the comment, but as I recall, she wasn't making fun of Trump at that moment.  She had before or after that part, which gets the leftist attention that *that's* why he challenged her automatic victory for POTUS, but it just didn't look right to me.  Trump and Hillary moved in the same circles, they'd know at least some of the same codes.  Anyway, I've always wondered about that.

□ [“Clueless Leaders Don’t Understand Why Recruitment for Woke Military is Down"]

In fact they specifically deny it.  The Marine Commandant General Berger said “I don’t see it.  I don’t hear it.  They’re not talking about it.  It’s not a factor for them at all.  I don’t see a conversation or an impact of woke-ism in the rank and file, at all.”

For one thing, you'd think any military leader is fully aware that lower ranks are very capable of hiding things from higher ranks.  Particularly for officers, you'd really expect them to understand that lower ranks can always find ways to keep details that would get them punished away from their leadership.  Maybe it's a Marine thing, "I want my senior leaders to know everything I do that they can punish me for."

That could be what's going on right here, the Marine general is lying to Congress because he'll be punished if they learned the truth.  There's at least a possibility, but apparently no one would dare lie to him about their support for made-up genders if they might be punished for telling the truth.

Also, do they know you're spying on them?  Because that might change what they're willing to say to others if they think it will be reported to higher-ups and get them punished.  Even if you aren't spying on them, all they need to do is suspect you are and that will affect their conversations with others.  Yet this guy has never learned about this at any point in his long career.

And when will the military implement the diversity quotas that the "woke" adore?  Why not just say any unit that doesn't have the required number of blacks, lesbians and every other gender should be shut down until enough service members have enlisted to fill the ranks?  That's the way you want it, so go ahead and make it that way.

If that announcement doesn't increase the number of service members who enlist, then start kicking the white males out until the percentages are accurate.  You need to represent the nation you're serving and you don't have nearly enough fat people.  Do I have to think of everything for you?

We've got China, Russia and Iran ready to start attacking, assuming they haven't started already, don't you think it's a good idea to get the military up to proper genders *before* that happens?  Nobody's going to want to see white men doing all the work, especially young and healthy ones.

He was so popular and well-known among his comrades.  They were envious of all his accomplishments.  Just think of what he could accomplish if he ever showed up to work.  At least he still gets paid and gets the Congressional medicare system that us peons aren't permitted to use.

It basically shows how unimportant everyone in Congress is to running the nation.  They could all be locked away in a psych ward and we wouldn't notice.  As far as I know, no one has bothered releasing any video of him showing that he's conscious and can actually speak.  We'll just take their word for it, or we would if there were any.

What have Pennsylvanians gotten for his service?  What has the Senate gotten?  What has the Democratic party gotten, other than keeping out anyone else who might actually, y'know, be there.  And none of them are complaining in the slightest.  Not even as an act for the peons.  That tells what we need to know about their plans for him.

As I write this, there pix of this guy have been released.  Well, they claim to be this guy, but his ears don't stick out, his head is much thinner and his facial expression is much more normal than the dazed blank look he had before this experience.  Yeah, that's totally the same guy.

It will be proportionate and deliberate action to limit the risk of escalation and minimize casualties.  That'll teach Iran a lesson!  We could minimize casualties even further by not having an airstrike at all.  But the pilots need time in the air so whadyagonnado?

Syria and Iran aren't neighbors, how did Iran get any influence there in the first place?  A large majority is Sunni so, according to the leftists who always opposed the US being in places like Syria, they have only hatred for Shi'ites like Iranians.  There is no possible way different branches of Islam could unite against the infidel.  So how did Iran get there in the first place?

Trump killed an Iranian military leader with drones in January 2020, Qassem Soleimani, at Baghdad International Airport for attacking the US embassy there.  That was criticized by the UN, Russia and all Democrats running for POTUS at the time, including Joe Biden.  Wikipedia has a full page of criticism for Trump doing what Biden wants to do.  Literally, Soleimani was in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Biden's staff has announced that our response will be in a place where the Revolutionary Guard is operating.

“Satancon attendees must be 18 or over and have proof of COVID vaccination.  Attendees must wear an N-95, KN-95, or disposable surgical mask.  Gaiters, bandanas, and cloth masks will not be allowed.”

I guess you could say their appeal is becoming more selective.  The cheapest tickets are $95 so it's not like they have any need for poor people.  Or non-whites, based on what little video they have showing attendees.  But I guess everybody's eating very well so they can easily afford the tickets.  And those expensive masks.

You'd think the misery our rulers are imposing on the world would push a lot of people away from events like this, and quite possibly that will happen here, but then, people stupid enough to do this in the first place aren't going to turn back just because they're being hustled by demon-worshippers and it's worked for this long, why change it?

I definitely think events like this will start becoming rarer.  Or at least they'll need to have some actual use to people.  I can't find any list of shops in the Satancon marketplace for any year but could one get some homemade food or useful tools for construction or vehicle maintenance?  This thing is only permitted by a society they want to destroy and they don't see any contradiction.

Um.  For the last few years, we've been told it wasn't Hunter's laptop and he had nothing to do with whatever the computer store was holding.  Government officials insisted any claims to the contrary were false.  The media reported this as well.  So what is there to sue for?

Apparently the computer repairman had no right to copy the contents of the laptop that wasn't Hunter's, even though Hunter signed the documents asking him to repair the laptop which requires making back-up copies of the memory contents.

You can't do the job I'm paying you for on a computer that's not mine, so now I'm taking you to court.  That's what Hunter is saying here.  They're going to need a liberal-friendly court to get away with that, but I'm sure one will be easy to find.  Is there any reason to think the contents of Hunter's laptop still exist, except maybe by government officials who want to threaten his father?

If it's not a big bank owned by rich leftists, you're out of luck.  This is how favoritism works but it's ok when Democrats do it.  Bonus points if China has a lot of big accounts at the bank.  It's clear that at least one purpose of this is to wipe out as many banks as possible so the survivors will go over to the required digital currency, but I assume simply hurting poor people is its own reward for our rulers.

It's not like people don't already have lots of incentive to get all their money out of the banks now while the banks still exist.  This is just encouraging them even further.  I doubt even the big banks will be all that confident, if the government is so quick to turn on the others and have already been doing everything they can to wipe out the economy.

I don't get why they think this will work.  I've pointed out that banking is very complicated and few people remotely understand it, that's how it works as a tool for all the countless different aspects where people use it.  Just to get this started, they'll have to cut down on all those options and they're already throwing the economy down the drain.  How hard is going to be to start basic banking systems for those who are denied access to what our rulers have imposed?

□ [“Utah Mom Unloads On School After Her Daughter Was Given 'Gross' Bugs to Eat for 'Climate Change' Project”]

Was this even a thing a year ago?  And now they're already imposing it on children and don't require consent.  The girl didn't want to eat bugs, she asked if her report could be about how bad it was and told that was not permitted.  The only response would be to say how beneficial it was to eat bugs.

These people should be shot.  I don't see any other benefit to keeping them around, taking up time and money for prisons and guards and so forth.  Even a bullet would be too expensive, just reuse the noose over and over.  Digging a big hole and dropping them in to watch them all die of starvation sounds fun, but I think it's a fundamentally bad idea.

They don't want to self-identify as humans who should be treated the way they treat the rest of us, let's show them how that works.  At most, they identify us as household pets and if they've made their way into a Utah middle school, they're not going to stop there.  We need to take them all down.

□ [“Sam Bankman-Fried Paid Himself Over $2 Billion and His Team Another $1 Billion Before Filing for Bankruptcy”]

I see stories like this and something about them is looking clearer about the conspiracy oppressing the whole world although I still can't figure out what.  It's easy to say the rulers are doing this because they want to, but that still doesn't explain everything.  Why do it this way, or at all?

In some cases, there are easier answers, or at least partial-answers.  January 6 was the excuse to overthrow the Constitution and the government, so they're going to keep pushing it even though they aren't even going after Trump anymore.  FTX was used to funnel money so Bankman and his people helped themselves to it before everything fell apart.  The WEF wants a puppet to show off as they impose their will.  I get that much, it just doesn't seem like a full explanation.

I'm not particularly religious, but this is definitely the sort of time where the need for prayer is obvious.  Where else are we going to find hope?  Other people?  I can try to inspire people for a resistance but look how well that's worked out.

Another down side, if you want to call it that, is how our masters get more desperate no matter what.  I do see reports that they're losing but I don't see any actual proof of that.  I think that's just their nature, kind of like the psycho who has no actual plans but appears to always be on the offense so he looks like he's got tons of back-up.  If nothing else, I think we need a resistance to stand up just to know who's fighting who.  I'd like some proof that our rulers aren't actually working for China and Russia, because just because they say they aren't doesn't mean it's true.  Or that Trump wasn't in on it all along.

Another worry I have is that there actually are plans, China has spent decades picking villages to eat bugs or make up brand-new genders, just to see the results.  Or they've told North Korea to do it.  We are in a time and place where reality would be very helpful, if we could find some.

□ [“Roger Waters reveals first music from re-recorded solo Dark Side of the Moon”]

I wonder if other rock stars do this?  I know Axl Rose remade Appetite For Destruction but I really suspect he was trying to prove that he was the only one who matters, the rest were just his employees.  Which they were, but Axl's insane.  Waters has been rich for his whole life and famous for most of it and now he decides to remake one of the most famous records ever?

That's delusion on a level I don't even want to remotely comprehend.  I would assume there are bands who are fooling around and record some new take on one of their classic songs, but I suspect that's closer to a live version than going all-in on production, especially considering how much time and expense is required.  Even in the 21st century, it takes a lot of work that could be used on something new.  It's not like he's not still being paid for the old album.

I have long since gotten over any interest in Pink Floyd.  I think I generally got sick of hearing the same songs over and over on the radio and their less-famous work wasn't all that interesting.  I really never understood why it was *that* popular.  It's not like Roger Taylor is sitting around trying to re-record A Night at the Opera, and at least he's still friends with the guitarist.  Of course Queen's not putting out any new albums either, which makes me sad. ☹

I don't know if it was deliberate or just happenstance, but for whatever reason, Dark Side took its place in rock history, and Waters was the closest Pink Floyd had to a famous member.  They used to walk around unrecognized at their own concerts.  But Waters has definitely spent the last half-century surrounded by people who say he knows best, so who else would he believe?

But this new version is totally pointless.  If you don’t remember the original, you’d get nothing out of this and if you do remember the original, it’s missing anything interesting.

Non-binary or binary, there are only two options

□ [“President Trump Says He Will Be Arrested Tuesday, Calls for Protests”]

We may have a target date now.  The government has announced that Trump will be arrested on Tuesday.  It's nice of them to give such advanced notice, accused criminals need that.  This was actually announced a couple days ago, I just hadn't bothered to pay much attention to it.

Trump paid off a stripper in 2017 and somehow that's a campaign violation, an "intent to defraud."  It's not clear who was defrauded by this but the government doesn't need to pay attention to laws unless they're convenient.  Look at all the women working for Harvey Weinstein who gave money to Hillary Clinton.

Why not arrest Hillary for taking all that money from Putin and then giving him the US nuclear plants?  Or was that ok because he passed it through the Clinton Foundation for convenience.  The Foundation shut down when Trump was in the White House but it's recently restarted.  And Putin was just charged with arrest by an international group with no authority.

This does look like a set-up.  I don't mean just in the obvious way, government tyranny, I mean in other ways.  Why didn't they just arrest Trump for the classified information in Mar-a-lago, a much more recent and, technically, a much more serious crime?  Why is this suddenly a big deal?

□ [“'That’s Not True!' – Biden When Confronted on House Oversight Memo Showing His Family Received $1 Million after China Wired $3 Million to Biden Associate”]

As I said, this just looks like some sort of sting operation or gimmick.  It's getting too obvious that Hunter Biden is only good for bringing in money for access to his father and that's what they've done for decades.  By extension, all the people who've protected Hunter and Biden are now being caught, and this is what they accused Trump of doing with his kids.

Bill Clinton gave Paula Jones a lot more money than Trump gave Stormy, how do you decide which guy gets to pay off women he rapes and which guy doesn't?  Well, which one's a Democrat?

So are they going to go through with it?  This is where it remains complicated.  It's possibly a hoax with Trump and Biden both involved.  Maybe it's a set-up from Biden and his side will flinch, which makes them look weak.  Maybe it's a set-up from Trump to push the enemy in a way they weren't prepared for.

What I'm worried about is that it's a set-up for us, to get as many people out protesting as possible so the labor camps can start being populated.  What I hope for most is that our rulers have been tricked into something and will stumble like Biden getting into Air Force One.  What I really want is for this to just come to an end.

That is not how to build anything.  That is how to warp anything living and healthy to death.  As always, they're aim for child abuse and showing exactly why morality and civilization was built over all these centuries.  Which is what they want to destroy, starting with children.

I've seen accounts that the rulers are actually behaving like a cornered animal, with nothing to lose.  That's believable but I have to wonder if that's just their nature.  It doesn't matter how much they're winning, they'll always think otherwise, no matter how high up the ladder they've reached.  It's one reason sane people often realize that they've made it as high as they'll ever get and trying for more would be worthless at best and dangerous at worst.  These creatures never do that.

I would like to think that there will be time spent examining popular culture of the last century to figure out how these creatures were permitted to thrive.  But keep in mind, that also means an opportunity for them to escape, thanks to whoever conducts the investigation, so burning them at the stake may well be the best option.  If permitting them to live means everyone else has to suffer, there's only one solution and they're the ones who made that decision.  Maybe it's best to be forgotten.

□ [“Maxine Waters Claims President Trump is Trying to 'Organize His Domestic Terrorists' by Calling for Protests”]

Democrats have supported protests for decades.  They've done a lot more bombings and murders too.  This is projecting their own desires onto their opponents as an excuse for punishment.  Don't know how it will work out, but that doesn't look good for them.  Something about this just comes off as desperate.

We could set a city on fire like Democrats do, obviously that would prove we aren't domestic terrorists.  We could just make sure we all have weapons ready to use, unlike the so-called "domestic terrorists" they claim to oppose.  I really do think this is the tipping point.  Whatever the results turn out to be, something is gone forever.  Hopefully it'll just be the bad people who are gone, but I'm not optimistic.  As Maxine would say, we'll need to get a little more confrontational.  We'll get in their faces and make them know that they aren't welcome here.

□ [“Even CNN is Reporting on Biden Corruption After Biden Family Received $1 Million Indirectly From Chinese Company”]

Here's an example, this does seem to be going somewhere.  I don't pretend to understand it but this seems like the more they try to silence evidence that Biden has been taking the money all these years, and by extension everybody who works with him, the more that evidence is coming out because that's the accusations they're making on Trump.

And even CNN is putting this out?  Are they doing this so no one will notice and later on they can say 'well you'd know if you watched CNN'?  It's just strange that even the media is getting close to admitting this is a problem, and the more they promote the claims about Trump, the more they'll look stupid if they blatantly ignore what the pretend-POTUS has done his entire career.

□ [“Economic Study: 186 US Banks Are in Trouble and at Risk of Insolvency – May Collapse Like Silicon Valley Bank”]

This we can expect to happen any day.  People are already trying to get their money out of banks and that's just going to push the decline.  We really need to restore actual currency and our masters want it gone so they can impose their digital chains on us.

Of course the banks owned by fellow leftists will be protected so that their owners won't lose any money.  They can sell their stock just before the collapse and make out with a profit, never mind what happens to the non-rich liberals.  Because they care and they know best.  And they have men with guns to impose their will on everyone else.

This is what they were going to do with Hillary, isn't it?  That was the plan.  She wouldn't have any more authority than Biden does and no one could criticize her because she was an old, rich white woman.  I've never thought it was a coincidence that Biden wasn't even considered to follow Obama.  Beau died just as the presidential races would be starting, so Biden had a reason to stay out of it.  Up until election night, I sure expected Hillary to win.  It was odd that she suddenly cancelled her victory celebration the previous week and was too drunk to concede on Election Night.

Anyway, the point is that the left is even more annoyed than usual because they lost out on four years of tyranny.  They simply didn't see this coming and desperately wanted revenge.  I can only hope that they'll mess themselves up before they get anywhere close to the devestation they're trying to impose on the world.  They've already gotten far enough.  We have to stop them.

But what songs do we pick for the soundtrack?

□ [“Calls Grow on the Left for Trump to Be Held Without Bail – For a Misdemeanor”]

They really want this.  It's one of those things where you have to believe there's some mastermind behind this because none of these people see any way this could go wrong.  Why didn't they just arrest him at Mar-a-Lago?  They already knew about the supposed crime, and it's not like having classified information did anything so why not?

Just looking at the leftists fantasizing about this, their comments are ridiculous.  Trump's a flight risk?  You're the ones who set up the arrest date in the future, he could "flee" tomorrow.  Wouldn't stop his supporters, so why the delay?  Because you're the ones hallucinating this.

□ [“60% of DOJ Manhattan Attorneys Reportedly 'Want No Part' of Soros Connected DA Braggs Made-up Case Against President Trump”]

Just the fact that they can't even get everybody on their own side to agree with this is surprising, although they'll probably all show up to party in court if it ever gets that far.  If this article is correct, it indicates how the people making this decision have no clue about reality and oppose anyone suggesting that they might be wrong about anything.  This is how you sucker victims into a trap and they refuse to see it coming.

I just saw a news article that Trump might not be arrested on Tuesday.  It was pretty meaningless, a theory there's still one more witness who needs to get aboard.  That sounds ridiculous, but I'm curious about the larger suggestion that the rulers won't actually have enough courage to go through with it.  I've always wondered why this happens, but it does, refusing to follow through on a success that they're so insanely convinced will work.  That never stops them from going through these unrealistic beliefs in the first place, so how does this happen?

An example I always ponder is how, when a Soviet Chief Secretary had died and a new one needed to take over, all the influential members of the politburo (or whatever the highest group of leaders was) would stare at each other, nobody willing to make a move, until someone finally had the courage to get up and walk out front to say they would be in charge.  It's the sort of thing a rational man can't comprehend.  You want to be in charge, that's how you got this far, so why hesitate at this point?  You'd think someone would rush forward just to show they were different from everyone else.

You're insisting that our children can have made-up genders but you're not honest enough to seize power outright?  How does anyone get to that point, particularly if they actually have an opportunity to seize power?  How do you have nothing else in your life to focus on?  And yet here they are.

I've also heard that Trump won't be arrested because he's in Florida which would require DeSantis to approve.  If true, that's funny.

□ [“NYPD Mobilizing 700 ‘Disorder Control’ Riot Cops Ahead Of Trump’s Unprecedented Arrest”]

They're getting ready to crush the opposition.  Whether there's a protest or if everybody goes on strike, that's what they're going to do.  It also sounds like there is a strike being attempted.  It may start on the 21st or it may just be something people pick up on.  Either way, I doubt anybody can see how this will end.

My first worry is that there are enough armed government employees to obey and simply attack the rest of us.  My second worry is that something similar will happen from gangs or invaders coming in from the south.  My third worry is that enough people are poor and miserable enough that they'd give up.  That's completely understandable but this is the point where we can't let that happen.  And honestly, to an extent, I don't think it will in any real sense.  At least not for a while.

I think there's enough faith and decency for sensible people to work together and find ways to survive whatever is going to happen.  Some will wuss out, some will turn traitor, some will just kill themselves.  Of course I don't know what the results will be, I just know that we need to push back as much as possible.  Going on strike is the first step.  Resistance is the second.  The third will be bringing an end to these beasts who declare themselves our masters and punish us for disobedience.

My fourth worry is that they actually have some plan ready, and keep in mind, these people control the nuclear arsenal.  They have lots of other options too.  It's their valley and their shadow.

Part of me wonders if our rulers think the game is up so they're trying to cash out all their allies while there's still time.  That probably isn't the case, everything will always be wonderful forever, but I wonder if they might be affected by something like this, at least subconsciously.

They have to identify their allies to save this bank.  This makes it obvious why this bank is being saved but others aren't.  So that doesn't help any other banks or any other bank customers and they already have to deal with the inflation the rulers say isn't happening.

We're all getting worse and some of us don't have much leeway to fall back on.  Our rulers, of course, have all the money they want.  At this point, you have to wonder if those who support our rulers are rich enough and stupid enough to make Hunter Biden the best of the lot, because everyone else has to see the disaster coming.

Over 180 other banks are being described as having as many problems as the ones our rulers bailed out.  These rich people all have other interests so they'd be discussing that, but what is the point of this?

These are some of the people giving orders to our rulers, they must have seen this coming.  What else are they going to throw at us?

So what will you do if Ukraine accepts a ceasefire?  Will you punish them for disobedience?  Can't have peace if you don't have ceasefire so you've being very explicit that you don't want peace.  Then again, they don't even tell Congress to declare war.  That would require a lot of politician's to openly state their views on this, which might keep them from leaving office wealthier than when they started.

Democrats wouldn't have accepted a ceasefire with North Vietnam either, although it's possible they might have accepted South Vietnam's disagreement on the matter, but they really wanted to fight Russia, China and their subordinates, so they sent in the military.

Isn't there any point where these people would think they've gone too far and look too stupid to be in charge of anything?  Obviously they make sure they're only surrounded by idiots who automatically agree with them, but can't any of them see anything that might go wrong with this?

□ [“The Iraq War: 20 Years Later"]

Iraq was a sensible decision. Just based on 9/11, the House of Islam had hit us hard and we needed to respond much much harder. Afghanistan was the right choice but it was also too unimportant to the rest of the world. Mecca wouldn't have worked because every Muslim in the world would have resisted - although I said at the time there must have been enough US soldiers who were both Muslim and airborne, so just send them in. Iran was already too much of a problem.

Syria might have been a better choice. They were also engaged in what Saddam was into and they were allies so Saddam would have jumped in on their side anyway, but it would have been too difficult to explain to the public. At least we'd had a long-running fight with Iraq.

I always thought we should take the Monolith approach to Afghanistan, as in 2001: A Space Odyssey. We're here, we're not leaving. You kill one of us, we kill fifty of you and we'll keep doing that until you learn a better way to live.

I don't know think that would have worked with Iraq and can't think of a better option, but one thing we did was bring all the Muslim terrorists there so we could shoot them instead of letting them come here so they could shoot us. You can argue there was more to this decision, but as a post-9/11 response, I supported it then and still do. I just wish we'd have handled it better.

And people like Joe Biden, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, etc. supported it at the time, then they said they were lied to, and now they want us to fight Russia.  Considering they started out doing this with Vietnam, they've obviously got a lot of experience supporting war and lying about whatever it takes to make it happen.  At this point, I'm not sure what to think about GWB or Dick Cheney, but at the time I certainly supported them and I'd still stand by my reasons at the time, whether they were correct or not.

There's other stories like these.  The banks are ready to fall apart and it sounds like they've all been propped up by the government for years anyway.  This same government has made it clear that we can't trust anything else, from medical issues to border security to war.  Even a lot of their supporters are complaining about it now.  It's amusing to see a Hollywood leftist says she's now much less rich than she was a couple months ago.

How many of these people are ready to live without what they've taken for granted all their lives?  They didn't get to where they are by being sane, now they have to face a fraction of what normal people have to deal with, and have all the sycophants paid to be with them.  They also have the folks on their side who say the economy is doing great and have been covering it up all these years.

It's still unclear if Trump will actually be arrested tomorrow.  It's also unclear what the response will be whether he is or isn't.  But the economy is obviously ready to collapse and everything else is going to follow.  Whether our rulers have that planned or not, they'll seize more power at every opportunity.  Get your back-up supplies, make contacts to people you can rely on, we need that now.

The news is vague as always, but has anything been happening on Russian soil?  For all of Ukraine's amazing victories and Russia's complete helplessness that we've been told about for the last year, this all seems to still be happening entirely in Ukraine.  Isn't there any point where you have to wonder if all your support for the mouse isn't really helping it fight back against the cat?

What's the worst that's happening, Russia's economy is doing as badly as ours?  Well, that's normal for Russia, can't say the same about the US and Europe.  China's having problems but they're a collectivist ruled by a dictator, which is also typical for China.  But our rulers don't see it that way.  They think our economy is great and Russia's been consistently losing for a year.  They're even ready to arrest a political opponent, just like Russia and China do.  They're also ready to take out their political opponents, just like Russia, China and Ukraine.  And they want this war to happen.

□ [“Paris is Burning: Macron Survives Vote of No-Confidence-Pension Reform Will Become Law Without a Parliament Vote-Massive Protests Throughout France"]

This one throws me.  Isn't the point that people can work longer without retirement, age 64 instead of 62?  That's something right wingers should support, but Macron just imposed it and the people are rioting because they want to retire at age 62.  By all rights, this should be an event where the people are wrong and the tyrant is right, but then I have to realize what I just wrote in the first part of this sentence.  This is why we should all hate the French.

One thing I think the world rulers have gotten right is that they seem to be specifically aiming different techniques and tactics at the nations those would be most suitable for.  Brazil didn't want a blatant dictator, the US had Trump for the tyrants to turn on, Europe has a couple generations who believe imposing unity is the only way to handle things, Japan is just psycho, and so on.  So here we have France making the right decision through tyranny and the people resist it just as we're trying to do everywhere else.

I think we're reaching a real follow-up to the first World War, not just a more expensive sequel.  In many ways, all civilized history had been building to that eruption.  There was the follow-up, then the Cold War which spread around the world, then communism was defeated, and all we've seen in the 21st Century so far.  I've also pointed out that at least World War II set a new standard and the men who fought that had earned a right to die in peace.  Well they're almost all gone now.  At this point, I doubt we'll wait until the final veteran dies, their generation is effectively gone now.  And here comes the flood.

□ [“GOP Presidential Candidate John Anthony Castro Calls on New Yorkers to Beat Trump Supporters with a Baseball Bat"]

One thing this will hopefully accomplish is to push out the leftists who self-identify as Republicans.  That's one reason I recommend going on strike, just because that will help recognize others who have done the same.  This guy ran for Congress once in a run-off election and didn't even make it through the first round.  That sort of delusion isn't needed, but he clearly wants people he's never met and doesn't like to be beaten up.

The strain is staring to get to all of us, but I think those on our side have a more sensible approach to life.  If this arrest is real and it does actually happen, I really think the point is to lure out all the Trump supporters they can for exactly this sort of beating, or murder.

If it actually goes through, I'll assume the rulers have everything set, at least for Trump.  They've got the guns, they've got the judges and juries, they've got the jails.  Very soon, he'll probably be found mysteriously dead like he'd just decided to testify against Hillary.  Whoever gets selected to investigate the death will become the new leftist celebrity.

□ [“Steel Barricades Placed Outside of Manhattan DA Office"]

So will they go through with this?  On the one hand, they could chicken out.  On the other hand, they could want to prove how strong and bold they are so they do this no matter what the consequences are.  On the third hand, this may be part of the plan, that Biden and other Democrats have done a lot worse for a lot longer, so if you can attack Trump, all bets are off, up to and including their Secret Service protection.

On the fourth hand, I don't see any possible happy ending for this.  The closest we could get is if everybody goes on strike so the only people who show up are government employees paid to pretend they oppose the government and look stupid.  They would still just get pretend-arrested and used as propaganda to attack the rest of us.  Otherwise it looks like disaster will happen no matter which results are reached tomorrow.  The rulers will seize even more power and attack anyone who disagrees, imprisoning everyone and will sort it out later.  The only option is some form of resistance and I have no idea how that will work.

But on the thumb (which is where my fifth hand is located) that might have been the point.  Either our rulers are trying to impose their will upon the world, or at least the USA, or there has already been plans in place to resist them and they're ready to move in.  So far, it looks like something will be different in 24 hours, whether or not it's obvious to everyone.

As much as I hated jumping from airplanes, one thing I always appreciated about it was that we were all in the same position and if it didn't work, we'd barely have time to realize there was a problem before we were dead.  We're all in on this.  Stand up, hook up, shuffle to the door...
