Saker Webmaster
The previous MFC had a discussion on the Star of David.
I remember some years back when I came across a site claiming that the Star of David was some Satanic/occultic symbol on the grounds that it had three sixes in it, and therefore other six-pointed stars are ‘Satanic’ for the same reason. Similar things were said about the ‘OK’ hand gesture and the logo for Monster energy drinks.
But then the next question is, is the ‘Number of the Beast’ literally three sixes, or just the number six hundred and sixty-six? (in Roman numerals, is it DCLXVI or VI-VI-VI?)
If,
– the no. of The Divine, aka That Which Cannot Be Named; “The I Am That I Am” (Exodus) is ‘777’ and
– the no. of the Christ is ‘888’ and
– the no. of the angels (Gk: angeloi) is ‘444’,
then, it stands to reason that the no. of the beast is ‘666’
Its interests me that in both Hinduism & Islam the no. of The Divine is also a 3-digit number which when added together = 21 & reduced to a single unit = 3, eg in Hinduism or Islam (I forget which one) the no. of The Divine is ‘786’ = 7 + 8 + 6 = 21 = 3
While I’m no expert on Comparative Religion, the point I made in another comment re: the Magan David, in the last MFC, was where there exists the same symbol in different cultures around the world – its a pretty strong indication (not proof) that what is symbolized / represented is a universal truth, ie true for all humanity living in that particular stage of human evolution
Regards
Through Gematria one can arrive at any number one wants. Jesus Christ comes out 666 in the end I’ve seen.
Au contraire, I think youve answered your own question: “one can arrive at any number one wants”
So no need to use it
My larger point was the universality of symbolism
Argue the substantive point, if youre going to argue
Regards
I call it the numb err game. For Sikhs 13 ( tera or Thine/ Yours) is a spiritual number and I suppose for Christians it is an unhappy one. How is 3 more special than 4? I kinda like squares—more room at the table and the balance is better but it still takes 3 to break a tied vote about what to have for dinner so I suppose that keeps the 3 special enough. For the binary futuristic types, however, two is the cat’s meow! Unless its Shrodinger’s then, dear me, we have….oh no
does not compute, does not compute….
we have Paradox!!
For Christians 13 is not an unhappy number. It is the One plus twelve. St. Teresa of Avila founded many convents for nuns in which 13 was the maximum number of nuns.
The hexagram is symbol of heart chakra, no matter who else misuses it. For me the meeting of the two triangles is similar to the meeting of the fingertips in Michaelangelo’s painting of ceiling of Sistine chapel.
universal truth in poetry is perfect, as the star of David, but also the passing moment, that glance, falling leaf, framed in words that conjour fleeting universality, eternity.
both have to arise from the heart, the heart always knows, but the intellect ejects sentimentality, the dilemma of materialism, that is how it is.
@Bruce Lee Marvin Gaye
Your point was definitely worth considering I thought, and if you are new here, feel free to comment more often.
If you use the numerology method of adding
up the letters Jesus Christ adds up to seven.
Jesus Christ
15131 389912
“Seven is the symbol of the temple, the human body and it’s seven chakras or power centres. It is the teaching learning number, the number of practical philosophical experience. Such learning is usually acquired through sacrifice as the means of indelible instruction”
‘The Complete Book of Numerology’ David A. Philips
I suggest you find something more useful to consider
Best wishes
Youre using a title
His name was Yeshua ben Joseph (Jesus, the son of Joseph)
Are you The Christ?
Yesh-u -ar! (Corinthians 1:27: “Your hope of Glory, the Christ within ye”)
Mighty blessings
Thanks for the blessings T. I appreciate all the blessings I get even though I cannot count them all.
Yes I am aware this is the title but I used it because this is how it was worded above. It is not useful to play with fire by using gematria to
find dark meanings in Jesus / Yeshua.
Interestingly Jesus adds up to the master number 11. Christ adds up to 5, the number for the heart. Which brings me back again to the hexagram, the symbol for heart chakra. Where are you going to find Christ if not here?
Best wishes
Anomalous, thanks for making the point of the name ‘Jesus’ adding to an ’11’ – a master no.
“Where are you going to find Christ if not here?” – excellent rhetorical question!
Best,

A special thank you to all who have donated. Ioan has now received the first instalment of your combined goodwill.
I’ve also raised the projected amount from the original 5 to 10,000 dollars AU. Anyone who’s been involved in money-raising knows it’s somewhat of a thankless task, because we’re not aiming for a one-off amount, so until further notice, a friendly reminder that we do need to continue our efforts. Love in Spirit, and thanks to the mods for the beautiful study gracing today’s Cafe. Waiter…
All strength to You dear Dimitar for your dogged, loyal, steadfast perseverance for our dear friend ioan in the community of this precious Vineyard
My life has been a bit #*%*^ lately but I breathe again, to let you and ioan know that, having read your beautiful ‘starry’ poetry conversations with another Caféista last Café – I found the perfect card which I will send on to you. I’m sorry if I missed your last pick-up trip.
My dear ioan the card I’m sending to Dimitar sends you love and light
“Silently, one by one,
in the infinite meadows of heaven,
blossomed the lovely stars,
the forget me nots of the angels”
– Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I’ve written a private message to you, which, please Dimitar might pass on to you.
I’m conscious of your fragility and your need to rest and heal, therefore communicating with a crowd of people becomes plain exhausting if not impossible.
Know that you are loved and please God take care of dear ioan and all in our Community –
Thy Will be done
Anomalous, on Feb 2, 2021, at 2:14 EST, wrote, ” One love it is that pervades the whole world, few know it fully; they are blind who hope to see it with the light of reason, that reason which is the cause of separation – the house of reason which is very far away! How blessed is Kabir, that amidst this great joy, he sings within his own vessel.
It is the music of meeting of soul within soul; it is the music of forgetting of all sorrows, it is the music that transcends all coming in and going forth”.
This remarkable quote describes Kabir’s experience which is different to his disciples, who are struggling with the ideas of Hinduism and Islam, and see only differences culminating with a quarrel over the body of the Master upon his death.
We human beings have a problem with identification. We identify with external standards, meaning we identify with arbitrary factors such as race, religion, personal wealth, appearance, social constructs like rich, poor etc. All of these conditions change from life to life, and so have little meaning in the greater scheme of things. But on the bright shore of the world of Soul, Kabir knows that such distinctions are meaningless, and that here, “One love pervades the whole world”. Here, the beggar and the great intellectual stand side by side, because those categories belong to a finite world, the world of reason, which “is the cause of separation”.
He continues, saying that, “amidst this great joy”, he “sings within his own vessel,” etc. The joy is that, unlike his disciples, he has discovered within himself the secret that has led to his emancipation, and that is “the music of meeting of soul within soul”, ie; the Music of the Spheres. He has contacted the Current of Light and Sound through his own personal efforts, ( the Holy Spirit ), and has maintained that state of consciousness, through spiritual practices, while his disciples have yet to understand that to do so, one must surrender the very things that they consider most important, ie; “the world of reason”, or the mind. His spiritual efforts keeps him above the mind
and it’s distinctions.
One love pervades the whole world”. Here, the beggar and the great intellectual stand side by side, because those categories belong to a finite world, the world of reason, which “is the cause of separation”.
A most timely and eloquent reminder, dear Dimitar, that when we have nothing to prove, and nothing to protect, we truly become one with one another in the Unity of the One Love
Babuska,
I had noticed you had disappeared for a while. I loved the video from Sweden – I did post a comment in reply in the last cafe, but late, so you probably didn’t see it.
Good to see you back :-)
Thank You sand
As I age I seem to get dizzier with tasks to accomplish :-)
I do hope that you are able to see that film without technical glitches, as one of the most appealing aspects of this film is the rhythm: the tango music, the narrator’s dreamy but thoughtful, empathic voice and the lively, everyday Swedish people she finds to interview.
To focus on the real life issues that confront me as the matriarch of our little family, neighbours and friends is my ongoing project, and of course, ageing is challenging enough, without the spectre of evil that is coming for us and our children.
I think that is why I burst into tears as the credits rolled, starting with the Dedications.
Last on that list was: those who died alone.
The film maker is a professional relationship counsellor; she highlights the crossing of ‘roles’ between politicians and their citizens. She is of course, correct but understated, as Sweden also, after completion of her lovely film, joined the globalists in their weaponising of medicine.
Across our western world we are seeing state-sanctioned brutality against innocent men, women and children, in the interest of ‘keeping us safe’
Those of us who refuse the injection will be blamed for the prolonging of lockdowns, which will remain in place until everyone is injected.
In Victoria Australia the premier has announced his intention to continue the state of emergency until 15 December 2021.
So, who today feels safe?
Babuška, so glad you’re back ; ) I can’t say I worry about the vax roll out, I’ve never had a vaccine in my life, and maybe I’ll be forced to have my first, maybe I won’t, and will be a social outcast and blamed and doomed forever – perhaps in another life I’ve been through worse, talking about reincarnation, which we were’t, but personally I don’t care, the whole impact, the spiritual, cultural starvation of humanity, that is a far bigger issue for me.
Many thanks dear Anonymous
It’s good to be back albeit in brief bursts
No worries about vax roll/out
No worries about being a social outcast
No worries about being blamed and shamed, for
“which of you by taking thought can add one cubit to his nature?’ Matthew 6:27
Similarly, ‘the spiritual, cultural starvation of humanity’ is not on your shoulders.
I say this because the human condition has forever been wreaked by the seven deadly sins and exploited by the usuals.
One of the most powerful books I read as a questing adult is: Dear and Glorious Physician, the story of St Luke by Taylor Caldwell.
Since you mentioned reincarnation, there is a fascinating case study over at Aangirfan, written by psychiatrist
https://aanirfan.blogspot.com/2021/02/reincarnation-many-lives-3.html?m=1
Babuška, thank you !
As others, I am all too aware of the different types of Covid 19 vaccinations, and their implications, which on a general level, are not a cure for disease, but a temporary measure of alleviating symptoms at best., and in the long run will be the cause of increased complications and human suffering.
As for the ‘the spiritual, cultural starvation of humanity’, well, why should it not rest on my shoulders, or anyone else’s, for it does indeed! Sometimes a weightless burden and at others heavy, and hard to bear. It is a matter of how it is met.
Perhaps truth is separate from knowledge, do you think? (I’m trying to understand your quote.)
The question of reincarnation, sure as one day follows another, for me, it is a fact, and can see no reason to hide this. I will have a look at your link, good bye for now, blessings to you.
Check out the headlines, check out the headlines, check out the headlines … (we dont have to read each and every article to expose the farce!)

IMO, all nurses, doctors and other medical personel putting experimental vaccine into a humanbeing unwanted is according the Nuremberg Treaty a war criminal and shall have to be prosecuted.
This is no joke. This is real, people are used as guinea pigs for the vaccine. That many people are excited waiting for their jab is IMO an information error or by disinformation.
When politicians or others are declaring the vaccine is save, please ask them for paper proof!
Needed for they are no doctor, GP or other sort of specialist in that metier.
They just plainly lie for it is not save, and BTW it is announced by vaccine specialists (the Good Guys) it is not a vaccine it is stuff which is genetic modifying all kinds of unwanted processes.
You might become a kind of Remote MS OS/666?
A proof, that as the French say, ‘the more things change, the more they stay the same’ – a summary of points:
Everything About The Biden Administration Is Fake
re: an exclusive from The Daily Beast: “White House Reporters: Biden Team Wanted Our Questions in Advance”,
‘cos having questions in advance would indeed be a good way to help insulate Biden’s press secretary Jen Psaki
“So this is just one more item on the steadily growing pile of fake things about this administration. Everything about it is phony. This is the Astroturf Administration.
– Biden and his cohorts point-blank lied about sending out $2000 checks
– Deportations are continuing unimpeded despite all the campaign pledges to the contrary.
– The kids in cages … are still in their cages and will remain there for the foreseeable future.
– The pro-environment candidate has authorized dozens of new oil drilling permits within days of taking office.
– Re-entering the Iran nuclear deal seems as far off as ever, with the administration continuing Trump’s “maximum pressure campaign” even as Tehran says the US ending its cruel sanctions is a precondition to resuming the deal.
– Biden still hasn’t taken any solid steps to end the horrific war on Yemen, or even to end US facilitation of the slaughter as he promised on the campaign trail…
– While Biden hides from the press due to his rapidly deteriorating ability to answer questions in complete sentences, the mass media churn out think pieces about how taking himself out of the spotlight is actually a brilliant political move.”

Mirror, Mirror
Mirror, mirror,
On the wall,
Watching over
One and all.
You see the faces
And the games we play,
The one God gave
And the ones we’ve made.
Mirror, mirror
So meek and mild,
Your heart so pure
Can’t be defiled.
You see me as
I really am;
You see the wolf,
You see the lamb.
Mirror, mirror
If you could speak;
All the havoc
That you could wreak!
You know the names
And the places, too,
You know the things
That people do.
Mirror, mirror,
Calm and wise,
You see the truth
Behind the lies.
Always ready
To forget and forgive,
Always ready
To live and let live.
Mirror, mirror
Each break of day,
You rise up early
To show the way.
Time unravels
And lays to waste,
The best laid plans
Will be erased…

Is it true,
That under the sun
There’s nothing new?
That the weak will rise
And the mighty, rue;
That under the sun
There’s only you?

Often I have found…by looking at a persons angled reflection in a mirror….one can ascertain their true nature..that hidden traits become revealed.
Leonardo said that in the marketplace you could see the entire range of human types. He’d carry notebooks and make sketches, even later from memory he could recall the distinctness of the faces that attracted him.
It is the mark of a master artisan that he can make something beautiful out of any old scraps. You took a rather rough proverb and made something very beautiful.
Thanks for the compliment, Anomalous… I think I’d be a poor artisan if I pushed aside all the ideas that come to me as not worthy of consideration. Every subject brings unexpected joys and understanding. Re: this poem, the underlying premise is that everything we see, is a projection of ourselves, with each verse elaborating a little in different directions. I think I might’ve rushed it, I’ve already made a few more edits and it’s flowing much better, but the essence is there in it’s current form. Warm Regards, D.
Thanks Dimitar,
I did reply to your Shakespeare quotes – you may not have seen it in last cafe – I posted late just before the new cafe started. Yes these kind of sites are handy.
I do agree with Anomalous, most of us ( certainly I ) would struggle to produce even a couple of ( clumsy ) lines. You have a gift not given to many.
You’re very kind, Sandra. Were those lines ( …about kindness ) from last Cafe, yours?
Dimitar,
well, unless I’ve heard them somewhere and forgotten – I don’t think that’s happened :-)
However, the older I get, the more I try to understand, the more I can see how little I know. I have realised that, when I think I’m right, I may nevertheless be wrong. ( I think that applies to everyone ). I can believe that these simple statements about kindness will not be unique – I’m sure similar things have been said before. ( I also realised, as soon as I posted it, that I could have written it slightly differently / better ).
I’m not a poet – I had thought that about kindness, in a loose way, before. I have missed the opportunity in the past and it has bothered me. I have also had kindness returned to me – almost magically. So, it was a couple of lines from experience – at least I think that’s what it was. :-)
Is there anything new under the sun ?
In art, poetry and creativity, even a small element affects the whole, it’s all about placement and accent. It’s said that truth is one, but always needs updating because human consciousness is in a continual state of unfoldment, it doesn’t stay still frozen in time.
If you really want to write, put aside all reservations, and write. Devote a little time every day. You’d be surprised at what comes through. The regularity opens up a flow which is there the next day and the next and the next. I have periods where I write a lot because I’ve opened up a flow, and if I don’t write it’ll dry up. On the other hand, it’s only when you write a lot that you’re able to reach an even deeper flow. You understand that your lines need to be fused with your experience, that’s why your “Kindness” was so successful. It was simple and unpretentious but honest. Best kind of work.

Dimitar,
thanks for the encouragement – but beware, lest you create a monster. I may well start writing screeds – which I’ll imagine are good – but which will actually be ‘ McGonnagals ‘ !
Well, I’m joking – I think :-). I may well have another go.
Thanks again.
Ha ha… nah, you could never be a monster, Sandra, no worries there. I enjoy discussions re: poetry; one learns so much about one’s self and also the creative process. Things to remember… you are your own best friend and worst enemy where any creative endeavour like poetry, is concerned. If you really want to do do it, adopt a “can-do” attitude and ‘put your nose to the grindstone’ daily, a little at a time. Also, carry a notebook, and jot down any interesting phrases that catch yr attention during the day, and most importantly, don’t get too hung up on whether your initial efforts are “good” or “bad”. Just start writing… snippets, phrases, haiku ( approx. 17 syllable short poems ), aphorisms etc. It may take a while to build momentum, but Spirit will keep you interested, just enough to keep you going, and you’ll surprise yourself soon enough, with thoughts like… “hey, that’s not half bad”…
PS I love Robert Burns, and Scottish culture in general. The music in particular, a dear departed friend used to play bagpipes and sing, his favourite was “The Dark Island”.
The Irish gave two things to the Scots. One was whiskey. The other was bagpipes. The bagpipes were a joke but they haven’t got it yet.
Hey, that’s a bit cheeky !
Actually I’m not too keen on bagpipes myself :-) However sometimes at the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, the massed drums and bagpipes can be quite stirring.
Dimitar mentioned hearing bees, flutes etc while
in meditation. The sound of bagpipes, astoundingly, is one of the sounds on higher levels
Dimitar,
I wonder if you would like this song, sung here by the Corries – it’s one of my favourites, ( Anomalous – there are no bagpipes ).

Something similar from Robert Burns, written in old Scottish dialect. I suppose most people are familiar with Steinbeck’s ‘ Of Mice and Men ‘ and may not know of Burns’ ‘ To A Mouse ‘ where it came from.
“The quiet kine are in the fold” is a Scottish line from a Gaelic song I recall.. The kind thoughts, poems here made me think of the kine, the cows, their holy place in India, their goodness, and how the good is connected to being kind.
It is an English word, people of the same kind, that kind of house, or idea ! That led me to think about the mirror poem of Dimitar above, how the spiritual world’s are reflected in the earthly world. The ‘as above so below’ idea that led back to the star of David and he two triangles, heaven and earth brought together. Evil is very connected to this too !
All things are connected if we are able to form them, reconnect them, and the fragmentation of the world today is greatly helped by the art of poetry, symbols, and connecting the dots of current affairs, political, economic and social…There has been a great loss of the latter here of late.
Anonymous,
Thanks for that. ” The quiet kine are in the fold ” – it brought a lump to my throat – the innocence and sincerity of animals puts us human beings to shame.
As to the loss of social bonds, the fragmentation, has been deliberately engineered over a long time – to have us atomised, distrustful of each other, alone if possible – much easier to control.
The posts I read here give me some hope. People who are not only smart, but who obviously also care. The knowledge and understanding on display in this forum is not matched anywhere I know of. Apart from the learning, it’s a good anti-dote to despair.
It was at one time, a powerful antidote to a dangerous world, or despair, or any other complexity of today’s political world, but is no more, though there are still good reports and links, valuable comments that one learns from, but the pettiness of censorship, ambition, personal ego and endless reporting of negativity and evil, posts without real, meaningful commentary or interpretation, geez, it’s is like a choking disease, or plant, ivy for instance, that kills trees and decimates whole areas of forest.
Iv’e tried to address this in different ways in the past, many times, now I fast track and know what I’m looking for and just ignore the rest. It’s still well worth it !
Well,
I do agree to some extent, but on the other hand we do have to know what we’re up against to be able to mount any resistance to it. I think there is a limit / a saturation point where the immersion in bad news and all the horrors of the world takes its toll. Stress, anger, despair are all ruinous to health. You can get too much of a ‘ good thing ‘. There are times when I fancy I can feel the cancers forming inside me ! Well, not really, but you know what I mean :-).
It was lovely to talk to Dimitar about poetry ( about which I know nothing ). Recently, I’ve taken to sitting outside in the cold until I’m really freezing, ( which I have an urge to do for some reason ). I enjoy the quiet, watch the birds taking their baths, the squirrel at the feeder – it does my heart good. There’s a balance to be found. We’re living in interesting times to say the least. I feel a responsibility as an adult, to make the effort to know what’s going on and to share the information. At the same time I don’t want to obsess about all things negative, but rather to find ways to protect myself from them / to exchange information and dare I say, feel a sense of community with other seekers.
We all have different abilities and leanings. I read some cafe’istas posts more eagerly than others and I’m sure some, perhaps many, scroll past my offerings, but I think we’re all trying to do our best.
Wee, sleekit, cow’rin, tim’rous beastie,
O, what a panic’s in thy breastie!

Cheers
Thanks Sean, It’s great isn’t it ?
I’ve looked out my ‘ Burns poems and songs ‘. I don’t think I’ve looked at that book since I was at school, Dimitar reminded me of it above. I didn’t like Burns poetry then, I was too young and daft I suppose, but I’m enjoying it now.
SandinED, news is not boring, ever, but negativity, the narrow focus, these can be grating after a while, information overload can be a health hazard also ! It’s reaching people, that’s the point.
Anyway, here’s the rest of the Gaelic song, it came back to me while doing the dishes.
Night, night in the woods
The quiet kine are in the fold
And singing flows the stream
Soon we shall see the stars again
For one more day down to its rest has lain.
Big Thanks to Anonymous, sandinED, sean Dimitar, anomalous, tera for the evocative and uplifting poetry and conversation
Deeply appreciated
You are welcome Babûska. Don’t give up heart. It’s all we really have
Thanks ( is it Tuppence ?) I love it.

Next time that troll ‘Anonymous’ enters the cafe with his/her ridiculous soundbite of “Putin’s in on the Great Reset” (sic)
lets remind him/her of:
Big Tech have become rivals to govts | Putin at the World Economic Forum in Davos (1:30)
“Big Tech companies have become rivals to governments, but there are doubts over the benefits of their monopoly for society, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin said, during a virtual meeting of the annual World Economic Forum.”

Have you any idea why he isn’t locking up the Russian Health Officials responsible , for example, for this:
MOSCOW, February 3. / TASS /. Military personnel who will take part in the Victory Parade will be vaccinated against coronavirus by March 1. This was reported on Wednesday by the press service of the Western Military District (ZVO).
“A batch of the drug in the amount of over 5 thousand [doses] of the vaccine was delivered to formations and military units, where parade crews are being prepared, in compliance with all transportation conditions. The vaccination of the first and second components of the military personnel, which will take place as part of the foot and mechanized columns, is planned to be completed until March 1 of this year, “the press service of the Western Military District reported.
They noted that to date, more than 1,000 participants in the Victory Parade and solemn processions in the Guards Tank Army of the Western Military District in Moscow, Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod, Smolensk, Ivanovo and Yaroslavl regions have been vaccinated with Gam-covid-vac.

Putin is, at least partly, culpable for this (on the basis of pumping vaccine uptake via the statement of his daughter’s own jab:
MOSCOW, February 3. / TASS /. Most residents of Russia plan to be vaccinated against coronavirus infection in the next three months. Such results were obtained by Raiffeisenbank based on the results of a survey available to TASS.
According to the data received, 49% of respondents are going to be vaccinated against coronavirus within the next three months, another 2% of respondents have already been vaccinated. The rest of the survey participants are not yet planning to be vaccinated.

My understanding is that the Russian and Chinese vaccines are traditional types; being attenuated viruses, not RNA `vaccines´ like those of Modern and Pfizer, which are purely experimental and causing lots of reactions and deaths. So, it seems that some countries are `going along´ with the narrative, but not to the extent of medical experimentation on their citizens. Here in Mexico, we are being offered the Rssian van, for free.

https://medium.com/@joakimbanglarsen/the-dark-history-of-vaccines-c6c0e37944d4
“Here in Mexico, we are being offered the Rssian van, for free.”
You seriously think the Russian’s will ship 24 million doses free of charge?
Good heavens – such one sided linear thinking. We should have a shaking head emoji! Perhaps it is the Mexican government making Sputnik-V available for free having contracted with the Russian government fairly for payment. The vaccine has been approved in Mexico just in the past few days and the first vaccine deliveries was en route yesterday I believe.
Sputnik-V is free for Russians as well. And in comparison with the other big name producers, Sputnik-v to my knowledge is less than 10 US dollars a shot.
What do you all think about teeee-rollllll ? is that a good name?
“Perhaps it is the Mexican government making Sputnik-V available for free having contracted with the Russian government fairly for payment.”

“Pfizer CEO Vows to Speed up Vaccine Development to Under 100 Days to Combat the ‘High Likelihood’ That Current COVID-19 Shots Will Need Upgrades to Stay Effective”
Expect Sputnik V version 2 real soon.
Reuters and Business Insider and Pfizer (that mRNA poison shot!) … and then you talk about Sputnik-V – that does not relate.
Great Balls of Fire. Russia is not Big Pharma, no matter how you try … but there is a vaccine war going on. And some countries actually understand that they need to look after their citizens. In this case, the one that we are talking about, the topic which you want to exchange for Reuters and Pffffizer, would be Russia and Mexico and Sputnik-V. Most here would not be caught dead with Reuters and Business Insider and Pfizer poison shot. I am not keen on vaccines at all, but I’d rather people take Sputnik-V (the V is for Victory) than the mRNA death shots. Me? I’ll buy my paper from the black market probably. If I am forced to the extent that there is no way out, I would insist on Sputnik-V. Luckily where I live, that is the way they are going.
But we all know your work. “Blame Russia and carry on! Blame Putin and carry on?” mostly linking stuff with no relation to what you are saying And now and again you relieve somebody at the China desk.
Just a note, with starting to talk more and more about vaccines – bear in mind it is for this reason that it is probably better to be clear on which vaccine you’re talking about. Otherwise old Teee-RRRRolll will try and pretend that you are talking about Reuters and Business Insider and Pfizer and give you a bunch of MSM links – that have very little to do with what you are talking about – but acts as a cover for a few Teee-RRRRolll factory comments. Up to you anyway.

So Anonymous, if Putin “is in on the Great Reset” why’s he calling out Big Tech?
I dont think you’re capable of critical thinking – I dont think you recognize that Putin, is an economic nationalist ; I dont think youve been following the many prophecies & private revelations (incl. two of my own, which I didnt understand until 2019) that foreshadow the collapse/disintegration of the “collective West’ and the reemergence of a Common Destiny for Humanity as championed by both Xi (via BRI & SCO) and Putin (via the EAEU)
If the motif of this site is to “stop the Empire’s war on Russia” (and by extension China, Iran, Venezuela, N. Korea, Cuba, Syria and even more generally the Global South) why on earth are you on this site?

Putin’s Russia is in it right up to it’s neck.
Replace “Gates” with Putin in this quote and the answer is even clearer

“Ask yourself why so much( most in fact) of the work that goes into this is by behavioural scientists( psychologists in other words).Their findings have had a major impact on the whole game. Scientists, virologists and epidemiologists have delivered nothing but numbers. A psy op is all about the psy.
Gates is classic, text book psychopath. Him, Fauci, and the state leaders all ooze Ponerology from every pore. We are being crushed by an army of political ponerologists and scientific ones. When a scientific ponerology tales power, it’s more than merely a technocracy, it’s a demented Divine Dystopia flying the flag of Science.”
Thanks for that first hand distribution of the exact material that comes out of the anti-Putin, anti-Russian troll farms.
Trying this language: “Putin’s Russia” – language is a dead giveaway that the troll farms are channeling the BBC again. Really.
Exchange Gates for Putin: dead giveaway that they have to try and connect by implication a SOB such as Gates with Putin, ’cause they have nothing on Putin – so they try to say Putin is like Gates. Fat Change this one has of any success.
And then a quick hammering in of Putin as evil by throwing in some Ponerology which of course is defined as the study of evil. Political Ponerology is a book that studied evil through political means during the time of the USSR. Take a look at the detailed description here to get a better idea of the contents and how this book came to be:
https://www.booktopia.com.au/political-ponerology-andrew-m-lobaczewski/book/9781897244258.html
I’ve not read it but folks over at https://www.sott.net/ did deep study into this. Its been some years and I cannot remember the details, but I think some of their people also had a hand in recreating this book after it was destroyed a number of times. If you do a search for Political Ponerology directly on https://www.sott.net/ (I cannot link the search), you’ll find all their work on this book.
Old insidious teee-rrrrollll is at it again giving us the experience of directly assessing the troll farm information of the day.
Fat chance for any credibility that anything from the BBC better known as the British Bullsh*tting Corporation after fmr PM David Cameron came to power and replaced genuine journalists with his Eton-trained mates to propagate a certain pro-Western /pro-Israel / free (sic) market agenda
My best guess is that this troll is employed by the British 77th Brigade – who can not only comment (and get paid for it) under aliases on social media platforms eg FB, Twitter, etc – while those of us who make astute critiques get “deplatformed” ie censored!
ohhh, the irony!

Pentagon chief ousts HUNDREDS of advisers in sweeping purge of Trump-appointed military boards. (article from RT).
I thought about that a month ago.
After a coup the purge of reluctant military personnel was expected.
Now the US military will less likely be able to say no to the madness coming from the bunch of maniacs ruling the country.
Last statement from the US military regarding China and Russia.
“Faced with Russia and China’s growing threats and gray zone actions, the United States must take action today to position itself for the future”.
“Unfortunately, our opponents invested in nuclear and strategic capabilities designed to constrain U.S. actions, test our alliances, and, if necessary, escalate past us—to include nuclear use. There is a real possibility that a regional crisis with Russia or China could escalate quickly to a conflict involving nuclear weapons, if they perceived a conventional loss would threaten the regime or state. Consequently, the U.S. military must shift its principal assumption from “nuclear employment is not possible” to “nuclear employment is a very real possibility,” and act to meet and deter that reality”.
It’s of interest that Paul Craig Roberts is being printed in the Russian site “Putin Today”. PCR does well, – I was wondering if he would revert to his previous misunderstanding of Russian mind set – but he does make the main point clearly and without undue rhetoric; that the Ruling Junta of America has no understanding of the fact that Putin makes his overtures to them out of a genuine belief that this is the only way to prevent war, and to build understanding.
As PCR says – it’s likely the opposite. The Washington Junta sees it as weakness, and it emboldens contempt. As I said about the last Olympics – allowing Russian Olympics to attend under the humiliating conditions imposed on them would not lead to “Understanding” but to worse – and Lo, that is exactly what has happened now re the next Olympics, to the unbelievable “spit in the face ” of banning Vladimir P himself.
I wonder how the article will strike the Russians who read it – I’ll be looking out for comments.

A piece of history from recent Russia – and a proud example of a fight back.
In the 1990’s, when Russia had been essentially sold out to the American Mafia, and her own Russian – Jewish Oligarchs, many factories which had been, not only successful in Russia, but Internationally, for the excellence of the products – were left to rot. As the writer says, the new owners were only interested in making money, not production, jobs. They were, essentially, that parasite of Industry, the asset – stripper.
Some people tried to revive many of them, but for a variety of reasons have not been able to.
But one has been, and is making fantastic heavy machine tools; greater in complexity, larger than anything thought in the Soviet era.
People like V. Nuland try to say Russia is crumbling – perhaps she is only looking at the remnants of what her Pirate forbears wrought. Look at this magnificent new factory inside the shell of the ruined one, and see how she is wrong.
https://www.putin-today.ru/archives/117880
“Nothing good” and in the body, which is now occupied by the plant UZTS them. Gray hair. But a few years ago, the legendary company decided to revive. The authorities of the Krasnodar territory helped, and an investor came to the plant. At that time, the building was essentially just a wall — inside it was similar to what is now happening in a foundry.
The garbage was cleared out, restored, equipment was delivered, specialists were returned and the plant was launched.
There’s a lot of work going on inside today. Dozens of machine tools, paint chambers, shot blasting, development Department, design Department. So far, only one floor of the workshop remains empty, but the latest high-precision machines will soon arrive here.
By the end of 2020, YZTS significantly increased its production volumes. During the year, 14 machines and machining centres were built — which is several times more than a year earlier. Let me remind you that the plant was opened in 2016, that is, it has been operating for only 4 years, gradually increasing its capacity and increasing production volumes.
Of course, today UZTS them. Gray hair is not such a giant as it was under the USSR, then about 1000 machines were made here a year. Today, the plan for the next few years is to make 30 machines a year, including 3-4 huge machining centres.
Turning, milling and boring machining center “Macrocenter” V50 Ganrty Machine.
In terms of the occupied area and size, it is comparable to my house. The maximum mass of the processed part is 125 tons.
But, it is impossible to compare the quantity directly like this, the machines that were made here during the Soviet era were much easier.
In the foreground are just the machines produced by the Sedin plant during the USSR. No CNC, just mechanical control. These were made about 1000 a year. Today, any machine is made for the customer.
The current products are much more complicated, even the simplest assortment UZTS. And such giants, which is shown above in the photo, have never been made here at all — nothing even close in complexity, size and capabilities. Today, 6 such machines are in production at once.
Turning and carousel machine. Not as big as in the previous photo, but also not a baby.
Being in the workshops of the plant, it is already difficult to imagine that only 4 years ago there were ruins here. And today they make processing centers the size of my house.

Now, here is an angle never referred to – it applies indeed to the nations of the Collective West – and leaves one wondering how America would stand in this debate. Certainly, it’s something V. Nuland appears to have no knowledge of.
The Russian industry has been growing for 5 years in a row
“The main indicator of the development of any country is considered to be GDP — gross domestic product. But this indicator includes not only goods produced in the country, but also raw materials and services. And the industry in it is usually 10-30%.
But if we want to assess the development of industry in the country, and not the growth of lawyers, managers and hairdressers, then we need to pay attention to another indicator — the industrial production Index (IPI).
But even here everything is not so simple, Rosstat diligently hides real industry statistics from us, so the IPP consists of 4 components, three of which have almost no relation to the industry itself.
The industrial production index is calculated by type of activity: “Mining”, “Manufacturing”, “Provision of electric energy, gas and steam; air conditioning”, ” water Supply; water disposal, organisation of waste collection and disposal, activities to eliminate pollution»
And if the point is mining and you can somehow draw it to industry by the ears, then what the other two points are doing here is generally unclear.
But fortunately, Rosstat also publishes statistics separately for each type of activity, we are interested in “Manufacturing”.
And it turns out, contrary to popular belief, this parameter has been growing for 5 years in a row.
In General, you won’t want to search for data on the Rosstat website for the enemy. I have a strong suspicion that the Agency’s employees are hiding them on purpose.
For example, here is a table with data for 2014-2019. But the data in it is outdated, as they are regularly reviewed in connection with the arrival of new data over the next year. Therefore, you have to search for updated data.
Fortunately, the report for 2020 with updated data for 2019 has already been released.
After falling in 2015, for obvious reasons, the following years saw an increase in industrial production in the manufacturing sector.
2016 — 2.6%
2017 — 2.5%
2018 — 2.6%
2019 — 3.6% (updated data)
2020 — 0.3% (preliminary data)
Although last year’s growth was purely symbolic, but considering what kind of year it was, the very fact that they didn’t fall is worth a lot.
In total, PPI in the manufacturing sector has been growing in Russia for 5 years.” !!!!
https://zen.yandex.ru/media/sdelanounas.ru
The IPI? Industrial Production Index .. yes Pamela it is one of many. But do we really want to take the numbers produced by the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) (The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and reported on by the Conference Board, a member-driven economic think tank. ?
I’m not saying I know which is the fair Industrial Index to look at for Russia, I just know there are many and this one is perhaps, well – what shall I say? This one does not contain agricultural outputs for sure.
It is maybe a good idea to look for an internal Russian production index. This is a minefield though. They may not want to report their numbers straight.
Sorry Amarynth, but did you understand the article? Maybe its just me, but I read your response to say you don’t trust the figures as they are from the FRB, and it would be a good idea to look for a Russian production index.
This IS a Russian production index. As in “ But fortunately, Rosstat also publishes statistics separately for each type of activity, we are interested in “Manufacturing”.
If it wasn’t clear, let me elucidate.
This article was pointing out that the Rosstat probably hides the true IPI of Russia to confuse enemies, but under the separately listed items which are all classifiable as manufacturing, one can find the figures given below.
So these are the figures of production growth over the past 5 yrs For Russia.
My query is what they would if they could be found, for America.
For the US? There are 100’s of different indexes. It is a question of what number do you want?
I think I understand what the blogger is saying.
– Rosstat obfusticates the numbers and,
– the category is obfusticated
(“Mining”, “Manufacturing”, “Electric power, gas and steam supply; air conditioning”, “Water supply; water disposal, organization of waste collection and disposal, pollution elimination activities”.)
(This is not surprising at all and happens regularly in indexes of this nature. There are hundreds of ways that these types of numbers can be presented.)
The blogger says this but still what looks like somewhat naively accepts the updated numbers? Huh?
I don’t think these numbers are reliable at all. They may exist in a fairly reliable form, but we won’t see it.
Are you saying then that Rosstat, the official outlet for Government Foreign Policy in Russia, is deliberately lying?
I dont see it that way. The writer states that the stats aren’t in one place, but are scattered under different classifications, and he chose the “Manufacturing” as he sees making things an icon of productivity. He didn’t say that Rosstat obfuscates the stats, ie. the numbers, he says there is no one classification of IPI, you have to go looking for the various activities that count as IPI and he chose to just go with “manufacturing”. If he had no reason to believe those figures, I doubt he would have written the piece at all.
Why would those figures be distorted by RossStat?? I am happy to accept that the Manufacturing, i.e. making of hard product, has increased in % terms just as RossStat claims. I cant see any reason for not doing so.
You can add in other factors if you want, or discount them of course. if you add in Agriculture, then given the last Russian harvest of wheat and export rise, it looks even better.
At least, it looks to me as though Russian manufacturing sector is increasing it’s output, which taken together with the other items I’ve reported i.e. the use of stored funds to boost new enterprises;, the growth of billion dollar manufacturing enterprises across Russia;, the opening of the biggest oil downstream processing plant in the world;, the the figures dont look outlandish. Either way, I’d say the principle – that Russian productivity is growing steadily, and is outstripping probably the Collective West, but certainly “outsourced to China “America, probably holds.
Excepting this is wrong: “Rosstat, the official outlet for Government Foreign Policy in Russia”
They have nothing to do with Foreign Policy. They are a statistics service. Here is their English site.
https://eng.gks.ru/
Federal State Statistic Service
From your blogger But even here everything is not so simple, Rosstat diligently hides real industry statistics from us, so the IPP consists of 4 components, three of which have almost no relation to the industry itself.
From your blogger In General, you won’t want to search for data on the Rosstat website for the enemy. I have a strong suspicion that the Agency’s employees are hiding them on purpose.
Yes, your blogger is right with this. It is highly debatable if the numbers are right.
Is Russia’s industrial production growing? I think so, but I think we should look at it in a different way – like not in “Water supply; water disposal, organization of waste collection and disposal, pollution elimination activities” for example.
The IPI is a very specific index – (IPI) measures levels of production and capacity in the manufacturing, mining, electric, and gas industries.
One can play with these indexes till the cows come home. For example manufacturing – do they include weapons and accouterments manufacturing and production? Surely not – different department altogether and the personnel here is made up of polite accountants dressed in green.
You want comparative? Between which and which country with a similar profile to Russia in the index – manufacturing, mining, electric, and gas industries. Pick one or two .. is Germany a comparative? surely not on the ‘gas industry’. And btw, does that include nuclear power production?
And then, they are a bit in a mess in that statistics service. Just take a look in detail at what they are doing to fix themselves. I see Mishustin’s hand at work here but see the depth of influence of international norms.
https://eng.gks.ru/storage//2020/01-30/5fKftnzF/Strategy%202024.pdf
I actually think if we take the index as defined, Russia’s numbers look better than reported – production activities. But add in consumption activities like all the water and waste works and other, well, what can I say. They come out as the Russian Power that Be (or any other government in the world) wants them to come out for publication … and this is not new for anyone that lives in the real world. This is the stuff that external (and internal) investment depends on, and it is very carefully managed.
Always take these numbers with a block of salt or do a hell of a lot of homework.
I’d like to ask people a few questions what they think about the Corona Virus shutdowns in their country and the real motive behind these shutdowns. Also, what is their attitude towards the mRNA vaccine being thrust into our bodies against our will?
Here in Australia, where I live, we’ve had a pretty normal life once the 2 week lockdown was initially enforced. Since then, it’s been a pretty non event providing you stay away from teh Media other than a small minority of people who wear masks.
I’d like to ask,
Do you think the mRNA vaccines are safe? Do you think that there will be any long term health effects? Are you going to willingly take the mRNA vaccine once it’s available in your country?
On what I’m concerned about……. I admit that sometimes I think I’m starring in one of those B grade movies from the 1950’s where, the little country town is being attacked by Aliens who turn all of the small town folk into walking talking shadows of themselves but, I’m the only one who knows what’s going on and no one believes me.
The more I research the Great Reset and the chemical witchcraft that created these mRNA vaccines, I’m starting to wonder if in 5 years or so, people who take the vaccine may all drop dead when the next virus is released upon us. I KNOW it sounds crazy but, a LOT of the ideology behind the elite seems to be, to wipe out 75%-90% of the worlds population so they can create their personal Utopia.
I KNOW it sounds CRAZY but……… What are your thoughts please?

https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2021/01/26/think-three-times-before-taking-the-covid-vaccine/
I recently watched an alarming video in which the PCR test was discussed. If this virus is coming out with breathing, why not swab the inside of the cheek? Sticking the long swab back into the nasal cavity, up against the porous bone plate which protects the brain seems unwarranted. Then, articles were presented which showed that the US government was experimenting with mind control 14 years ago (at least!) and used a long swab, swirled in the exact way the PCR test is done, to introduce nanoparticles into the cavity, through the porous bone, and into the brain. Then, this could be used to excite people to violence, or otherwise compel behaviors. Then, they showed a clip of a nurse taking apart the cotton of the swab, and showing metallic filaments.
It may or may not be true. Certainly, we know that DNA data bases are very valuable commercially, and these tests may be simply data mining DNA samples.
I urge you to read about linguistic wave genomics, discovered by the late scientist, Dr Peter Gariaev. It has been shown that one can beam the wave forms of the DNA to affect the organ of mammals (they used rats in Toronto experiment) or of pathogenic organisms over fields, and either regenerate healthy organs (in the case of rats) or destroy crops in the latter case. This view of genetics shows that all of the crisper and DNA tech so far will not work, will have disastrous consequences, as it is based on an incorrect theory. Genes do not code in a one on one basis, but rather in complex and nuanced ways, much more like a language.
For nearly one year we’ve had virtually nothing but Covid 19 media related information in the UK… What was once known as news no longer exists. It ain’t coming back, forget about the facts ma’m, imbibe the propaganda, don’t think and don’t ask questions.
At the moment it’s vax jab focus, the “shot” as it’s called. Types, numbers of people, month expectation dates, ages and so forth, also sometimes other countries likewise, and ambition of global vaccination to eradicate the virus.
This is all known, things are moving fast, I wrote this in the last Cafe, and asked what’s next. Enforcement, surveillance, huge social unrest, yes, all quite likely. The difficulty occurring to me from the start is the huge population to coerce and manage, and in relation to this, the Covid blunder itself, people weren’t dying as anticipated, hence death statistic frauds, media hysteria, new virus strains.
I also see the whole thing side-stepped and brushed under the carpet through war, who knows, I hope not.
Anyhow, communicate while you can, ask questions, and Paul thanks for links.
Yes, its been a handy way of keeping peoples minds well away from anything else, hasn’t it?
No questions about loss of liberties; the fall of the ersatz-liberal model in social engineering; the collapse of the multi-ethnic model of immigration; the social strains of immigrants with a vastly different culture and no intention of changing that culture, of female circumcision, of ‘honour” killings, forced child marriages, Sharia Law enforcement, and so forth; no examination of the social stratification of people growing, that between working people of the countryside, and the MetropolitcanLiberalLuvvies in the bigger cities; no discussion about the growing gulf of the biggest stratification of them all, between the obscenely rich, people richer than nations and thus in many ways more powerful than the Government of nations and the growing descent into Dickensian poverty, hunger and despair of the rest.
No, none of that. Just this unsubstantiated story of a killer virus, and a mysterious vaccine. It’s exactly like the story-line line of “V” come to life.
Remember the moral of that story? Dont let them drive you into fear. Fear with reason, when an intuitive nudge in a dark street tells you to run, Yes, and run; but fear for fear sake – it will, literally, kill you. And we see in fact that it is doing just that.
Well yes, very clearly outlined and very fine language expression if I may add.
In relation to the “killer virus”, the accompanying lockdown and restrictions, is the selfie ego mode intensification of being stuck indoors, all the usual cultural and social outlets closed.
I saw recently that in 1921 a wave of theater closures and literary persecutions took place in Russia, and abrupt closures too, mid stream of programmed performances, for ideological reasons. One hundred years later, they are health focused, ‘save lives’ closures from a deadly virus. As you have written, it’s all about engendering fear.
“it’s all about engendering fear.”
Yes. But why?
Part of the answer lies in BigPharma/Russia Inc profit
https://www.rt.com/russia/506712-covid19-vaccine-fight-west/
“Put aside for a moment the political one-upmanship that has dogged the global search for medicine to deal with a killer illness. Once the hype ends, the business will begin. And this is going to be a very big business indeed.
Estimates of the value of the coronavirus vaccine market vary wildly with estimates from $25bn to $100bn being bandied about. But clearly it will be worth multiple billions of dollars. And whoever gets a working vaccine to market first will capture a large slice of that money.
Kirill Dmitriev, the CEO of the sovereign wealth fund called the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), which financed much of the Sputnik V research, says he thinks Russia will control about a third of the eventual three billion to five billion dose-market. If that is true, then coronavirus vaccine exports will earn Russia as much as it receives from exporting grain or arms – and Russia is a global leader in both of those export categories.”
@Australian Nut
1. “what they think about the Corona Virus shutdowns in their country and the real motive behind these shutdowns”
Well, I dont have a “my country” really. I Left Australia 6 yrs ago. I live in Ecuador now, but it’snot “My” country. Here, few people are very educated. They are easily brainwashed. Many are barely literate. They truly think there is an invisible monster out there, waiting to get them and now it’s come back armed with teeth. They wear masks, now sometimes 2 together. They were getting more relaxed until the “mutant monster” scare was raised. They dont think logically – like most of the hive mind in fact. They accept everything they are told – that there is a dubious force behind it they are not aware of. They were very laid back, — until the terror machine got to work. You can’t get past it. I have a friend, a taxi driver, who insists his cousin had it and had to be put in Intensive Care. He was complaining of mild fever, a headache and feeling achy. After 3 days he was discharged home. I try to tell him, as an ex-nurse in acute care hospitals, no-one gets discharged home from ICU. It doesn’t make any difference. A man in white coat called “Dr” said it, so it is so. NO different to the low IQ emotion driven hive mind of any country, It’s just that they comprise about 95% of the population here.
2. “Do you think the mRNA vaccines are safe?” No, I Dont, but then again, I dont think ANY vaccines are safe. To start with, too much data about them has been supressed, but much FOIA requests are showing that most have many more side effects than are revealed and some of those are horrific. Moreover, more and more, as the paradigm is shifting in our understanding of the entire “Microbe invasion of a helpless body causes disease”, and we learn more and more about it all as human-microbe relationship, we are learning that there is in fact no scientific evidence that ANY vaccine does more than either nothing, or somehting bad. Personally I avoid them like the plague. One of the regrets of my life is that I was well and truly soaked in the medical model in my younger life, as a Hospital Trained nurse, and had both my kids vaccinated – with bad side effects.
3. “Do you think the mRNA vaccines are safe?” NO. Emphatically not. and NO, I will not be taking one. Not any vaccine. I’ll find a way to by-pass if it gets forced.
4. “I admit that sometimes I think I’m starring in one of those B grade movies from the 1950’s where, the little country town is being attacked by Aliens who turn all of the small town folk into walking talking shadows of themselves but, I’m the only one who knows what’s going on and no one believes me.” Oh God, I know how you feel, I’ve been feeling that way for last 30 odd years !! Just something you have to learn to live with – lonely as it is, I know. I suspect many more people are feeling that way, — they just learn not to say anything. It’s getting to be dangerous to be different these days. Many are deciding to just keep their mouths shut and quietly plan for themselves.
5. “I KNOW it sounds crazy but, a LOT of the ideology behind the elite seems to be, to wipe out 75%-90% of the worlds population so they can create their personal Utopia.
I KNOW it sounds CRAZY but…..” Again, I agree, it sounds crazy but….. For example, who would have thought a year ago, that this insanity would ride the world. I read an excellent piece on a Russian website this morning where the writer was saying there is an epidemic, but it’s one of mental disease. Insanity, fear crazed, brainwashed – mental conditions can be catching, and it’s an epidemic of insanitity.
Would I have calculated this when I decided to move from Aus to Ecuador? That in a few years time I could be looking at never seeing any of my family again? I can’t visit my brother in NZ until everyone is vaccinated – with some horrible Anglo version of a vaccine, and god knows if at his age he would survive it. I cant visit my daughter in Australia because of the stupid America bum licker of a PM shutting admittance, and the same for visiting my son and grand-kids in Canada – Trudeau the sinister has stopped all admissions unless for exceptional reasons. This does not include family reunions, but does allow all sorts of pollies, wealthy etc etc.
I never thought the day would come when I could be very sick, or one of my family – and I would never see them again to say goodbye. Yet here it is, so as you say, these suspicions about the reason behind sound crazy, but so would someone saying to me – in a few years time they will lock down the world!!!!
Now, can I ask you a question? You say where you are ,apart from the 2 week initial lockdown, everything is normal, where abouts are you? I ask because my daughter in W.A. said that apart from a 2 week home arrest for arrivals from out of state, there were NO restrictions at all. But we see some horrific reports of police arrests, harassment etc etc in Victoria. One person for being outside a 5 km zone away from her home at the beach, another for man who couldn’t get into crowded shops in Sydney so went to a smaller town in the hills region.
It appears things are very different across Aus – and the infection and social mess rate is worse in Vic than W.A. But then again — it always was :-) :-)
Thanks for your honest and personal response. I live in Queensland on the sunny coast.
I haven’t watched television or listened to a radio in over a decade but recently had exposure to a television while sitting in a waiting room to see my Dentist.
It is beyond belief!
To tell the truth, after 20 mins of watching this crap I prayed that God would forgive us of our collective sin. Yes, it was that bad!
I felt dirty.
I make no apology for that and it was the only response I could muster after being exposed to this insidious, mundane and low brow programming. Seriously, you talk about the uneducated of Ecuador but, we have the exact same here but, what may be worse is, they think they’re educated!!
What added to this experience was when I sat in the Dentists chair. While the Dentist was getting organised, I asked a simple question,
“So, what’s it like being a Dentist in this crazy Covid world.”
The Dentist explained that it was very frustrating because the authorities changed the rules and safety recommendations almost daily. She said, that she just screens everyone to make sure they haven’t been in a ‘hot spot’ (evidently they exist??)
When she finished, I said, “I think the whole thing is a con!” She looked at me, and then relaxed, smiled and then, moved close to me and whispered, “I totally agree!”
She completely changed her tune and started telling me how ridiculous the whole thing is and explained that she HAS to pretend to take it seriously because so many of her patients come in with a genuine fear and she has to accomodate them.
She said, “it’s like they are part of a cult or a religion!”
When driving home I thought to myself, ‘What kind of country am I living in when people have to pretend to believe in something just to get on in life?’
It’s getting like Nazi Germany where, the public exhortation of, ‘love to the fuhrer’ is paramount to being accepted.
IMO they’re cleverly creating a new religion and have many willing followers all of whom are ignorant of their participation. It comprises,
1. The total acceptance of Global Warming due to carbon emissions, complete with the self sacrifice necessary, for the pretended care of the planet (which is just old fashioned self righteousness) (I’m not against dutiful care of the planet either but not in the way being thrust down our collective throats)
2. Religious Veganism (not that I’m against being a vegan either if that’s your thing but, the motive is the issue as well as meat eaters being forced to comply through proscribed guilt)
3. And now, the whole, health scare complete with the lie of, “I’m responsible for your health” as well as the FEAR that they’re propagating at every opportunity.
They closed the borders here in Oz a few times and I believe 2020 was a year of conditioning us to complying with their mandates. Every shop has a warning about Covid, Perspex shields at every Cashier, and big stickers on the floor telling you to stand 1.5 meters apart.
All of this was installed within a month of the initial announcement. Impossible imo for all of that to be designed, ordered, printed and installed across the Nation unless they were already organised.
I think we’re being conditioned for when the mandate will come down stopping us from travelling past our suburb until personal transport will be severely constrained altogether.
None of this is by accident but by design and you can almost see them laughing at us with some of the contradictory limitations imposed. NONE of it made any logical sense.
Melbourne was stazi like and they were locked down for 6 months or so. Here in Qld, it was pretty relaxed but Brisbane was recently locked down for a weekend because supposedly 1 person was found positive. (as if that would achieve anything but more conditioning) but the Media rerun the same story about the 1 infected person over and over again until you think there’s 100’s of people infected.
Personally, I don’t accept fear. I refuse it and you can do that when you are cognizant of it’s presence and drive and have the opposite of fear. Faith!
I put my faith in God but that is slowly being made illegal and I’m not kidding.
Our PM here is a bully and a thick headed bully at that. He reckons he’s a Christian but I think that’s just a ploy to give him something that resembles a history and a personality. He is bland. Very bland. And, as you say, a US puppet. But haven’t they all been since Frazier?!
It’s not difficult to see where all of this ends up and who the enemy will be and, I don’t think that that is by accident either. Oh well, there’s nothing new under the sun as they say.
All of this has been very divisive though. I’ve felt it in my own family sadly.
Like the Dentist who felt to pretend, all of this propaganda is causing people to keep to themselves and you notice, simple things like, walking down the street and getting a nod and a smile from complete strangers is becoming much more rare than it was only a few years ago. People are being corralled imo. Mentally at this stage but I believe the physical corralling is coming.
Thanks for responding. All the very best to you.
Sorry to hear about you being separated from your family. That must be difficult!
Hi Aussie Nut
Today I went to my GP (nothing serious – just routine stuff that has been neglected over past year of lockdown).
Usual procedure… stand outside elevator… phone reception… answer the standard questions (do you have cough cold etc) … ok come on in, but wear a mask. I said no I can’t wear a mask, because it will trigger a panic attack (yes, because I like to breath)… receptionist said, oh okay then.
Sat in waiting room. All seats wide apart with an X marking where to sit and staff masked. Another patient arrived … given a mask etc.
Then my GP calls me in … he is NOT wearing a mask.
We discussed my health etc. He is a more a friend than a GP… so we can really talk. He has not seen a single person with the CV… nor any in the entire region (Newcastle NSW).
Then I said, I will not have the jab… he said, neither will he. We laughed and he reached out to shake my hand…. omg we touched each other… quick quick quick wash our hands … we laughed some more… So refreshing to have some honest assessment.
He does not want to be a human guinea pig with this new mRNA jab. But he fears government blackmail and that he won’t be able to practice medicine unless he is jabbed!!
BTW… his wife is stuck in Poland – she went to visit family 12 months ago, and now can’t get back to Aussie because flights keep getting cancelled.
Yes folks… the scare mongering is designed to make us beg for the vaccine.
Go visit the Modena website… it calls the jab ‘software for life’ …
https://www.modernatx.com/mrna-technology/mrna-platform-enabling-drug-discovery-development
mRNA technology platform that functions very much like an operating system on a computer. It is designed so that it can plug and play interchangeably with different programs. In our case, the “program” or “app” is our mRNA drug – the unique mRNA sequence that codes for a protein.
I am a person… not a robot to be programmed.
Thank You for posting the above moderna link.
I see no reference to , nor the word, “Vaccine” on that opening page. Only reference to “medicines”.
The Moderna medicine mRNA is not a vaccine , i read elsewhere, and Moderna do not make vaccines. They make medicines and there are other medicines equally appropriate for the “virus”, yet Moderna do not want comparisons to any such medicines as will draw attention to such medicines and away from “vaccines ” .
Where is any reference to the logterm effects of mRNA and how have tests been made for such a new medicine to ensure safety of use ?
@AussieNut
can endorse much of what you write. But take a quibble with the suggestion Frasier was the last true Aussie Pm.
Frasier, ! who was already seated (secreted) in a side room when Gough Whitlam arrived at Government House to be sacked by Kerr.
Why do you think Gough is demonised to this very day?
Like him or not, HE was the last true Aussie PM, and that is why he was despatched in the easiest/softest of coups.
All PMs since have been sycophants (and a number before that).
And what was John Howard doing in New York on Sept 11.
Just another coincidence, right?
No you misunderstood what I wrote. Frasier was every bit a US plant. I was INCLUDING Frasier not excluding him.
Having cleared that up, he DID bare his soul before he died with a few honest and anti US statements one of which was that Australia needed to forge our own Foreign Policy and distance ourselves from the US.
Thank you Aussie Nut, for your very open and interesting response.
It’s good to see that professionals in the field are sharing our view – it’s all a load of mysterious hooey, but they have to keep quiet and go along in order to keep working and thus feeding families and trying to help clients.
That part is the bad news. it is, as you say, a question of asking yourself “what kind of a country do I live in”, and I’d say it’s getting to much like the worse phase of the USSR, or East Germany. I dont know for sure, as I never lived in them to make a valid comparison, but to me it has that feel, from the things I have read.
I have to say – although I’m not in country I want to be – as a second choice, especially when I look at the 5 eyes nations, I’m in a good second best :-)
All the very best to you too.
I just found this and thought of you:
““Loneliness does not come from having no people around, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.” C. Jung.
It’s the kind of loneliness we just have to learn how to live with. At least times alone, reading chosen material irrespective of what other think of it or us, and going “deep within to learn” — we make strides along our own pathway.
Even though the loneliness of not being able to communicate it still sits on our shoulder. :-)
Thanks Pamela
that’s a great Jung quote
It describes my isolation perfectly!!
All the best to you too

A reminder that according to the Saker, the collective Biden is now at the helm of the USA, which he defines:
“Biden”. From now on, when I will speak of Joe Biden himself, I will use the expression “Biden the person” as in “Biden the person appears to be brain dead”. When speaking of “Biden” by itself, I will from now on refer to the “collective Biden”, which is something like the sum of all the following: his direct handlers in the White House, all the puppet masters of the DNC, the War Lobby, the US “deep state”, the US Nomenklatura, the MIC, the Israel Lobby, the letter-soup agencies, the Entertainment Lobby (“Hollywood”), the US propaganda machine aka “the corporate media”, the many RINOs of the GOP, Big Pharma, the US Prison Industrial Complex, assorted “gender fluid” freaks, unhinged feminists, anti-White racists, the (truly) Fascist (pseudo) “liberals”, etc. etc. etc. (the list is almost infinitely long).
So… on the subject of navys, helicopters, restitution, strategic balance, we should be very clear on the above.
https://russtrat.ru/comments/3-fevralya-2021-0010-2851
An alarming estimate by RossStat – the Foreign Policy Institute of Russia, designed to “develop strategic approaches to Russia’s foreign policy that are compatible with its geopolitical and economic interests, including through scientific and research developments, and assistance in shaping Russia’s political and economic strategies in the international arena.”
Headed “Us elites are becoming aware of the inevitability of war with China”
The article cites writings out of American “think tanks” to support the contention that America is rapidly seeing no alternative to war with China, as otherwise, by 2050 {if not before} China will be the worlds only superpower – and much attrition for past offences is likely to visited upon the defeated Collective West.
It’s a very interesting – and very valid – well researched point of view – for this reason, I ask the Mods to allow me to put in the full article, as I am aware many readers to do have access to a good online translator.
“Moscow, February 3, 2021, ROSSTRAT Institute. The answer to this in June 2020 Institute ROSSTAT question – will the United States to war with China, and if so, why? (see the Institute’s report “assessment of the likelihood and practical forms of armed conflict between the US and China”), in the last days receives further confirmation.
If earlier it was a question of interpreting the outcome of the analysis of the dynamics of the overall development of events, now American experts are talking at once as observers, assessing the process that is taking place literally before their eyes.
For example, Chaz Freeman, a senior adviser at the Watson Institute for world and public policy at brown University, formerly a high-ranking diplomat and Pentagon official, and translator, bluntly says in his article that the door to a peaceful scenario has finally slammed shut.
Michael Beckley, an assistant Professor of political science at tufts University, and Hal brands, Professor Emeritus of international relations at the Johns Hopkins University school of advanced international studies, point out that there should be a war. Unless they regret that America will have to join it.
American social psychology has a pronounced Messianic component. They are always good, no matter what they do, and they always save the world, so they are forced to interfere in other people’s quarrels. That’s right-they are forced to, for the sake of saving people’s lives and the principles of freedom. That they themselves incite these quarrels for their own purposes – they carefully move behind the nearest curtain.
In their opinion, war is inevitable because of the determined attitude of mainland China to return rebellious Taiwan to its power. Washington formally has grounds to submit the question in this way. The island is indeed an acute domestic political moment in inter-Chinese relations. Moreover, it is extremely fundamental.
True, the PRC has long sought a peaceful solution and, admittedly, has succeeded quite well in this matter. Half of Taiwan’s economy, especially in the high-tech field of microchips, has been locked into mainland China. Given the difference in the weight categories of the two countries ‘ finances, it seemed obvious that in another ten or fifteen years Taiwan would finally be closed to the Chinese economy, which would be the starting point of its gradual political integration “according to the Hong Kong version”.
But this result frankly does not suit the United States. So much so that America is trying its best to escalate the problem so that Beijing has no other option but to join Taiwan by force. No, on the pages of the media, American experts, of course, are very, very sorry that in the end the American guys will again have to go into someone else’s war and stop the aggressor, but at the same time they are convinced that America, as always, is able to succeed.
Although in reality, the situation is, to put it mildly, far from so clear.
On the one hand, a direct war between the US and China is indeed inevitable. America’s goal in it is to replace the Chinese government with a deliberately Pro-American one. First of all, in the issue of free admission of American financial capital to the domestic economy of the country.
The goal can be achieved only in two ways: by completely occupying mainland China after its total military defeat, or by changing the power elite to a “more correct one” due to a major military defeat of the Chinese army somewhere in a third country.
There was a third option – through the colour revolution, but the CCP reliably and unconditionally rolled tanks into the asphalt in Tienanmen square back in 1989, and then through stopping the spread of the coronavirus epidemic in the country.
However, the success of a direct invasion of the US army directly into China can not be counted on either. The Pentagon is woefully short of resources for an operation of this magnitude, from people and equipment to logistics bases and supplies.
So it turns out that the “Taiwan” option for the United States remains the only suitable “battleground”. The only problem is that, based on the dynamics of the growth of the PLA’s military power, after 2028, the American army will not be able to defeat the Chinese army even in the local theatre of operations of Taiwan. This is already recognised by RAND analysts. Even taking into account the factor of the “Finnish war”.
The Pentagon can’t attack right now, either. The American nation is not ready for such a war. However, judging by the sharp increase in the pace and volume of publications about the inevitability of the military option, the process of preparing society has already begun. It will take at least three to four years.
Such a serious factor as the personal enmity between Joe Biden and XI Jinping cannot be excluded from consideration – during the election campaign, Biden spoke several times in a boorish manner about the head of the CPC and China, which did not go unnoticed by the Chinese side.
The case is complicated by an important organisational issue. The corporate revolution that occurred in the United States (the falsification of the results of the US presidential election and the seizure of power by a democratic group)* required a critical internal weakening of the American state mechanism. Not only the elites are split, but the army is also split. How in this state you can successfully fight with another strong state-so far no one has any idea.
And it is necessary to fight, otherwise by the middle of this century, China will surpass not only the United States in resources, but the entire Western world as a whole. This will allow him to impose on Washington a long competition of attrition, which he is likely to win.
That’s why American experts suddenly began to “regret” the “growing aggressiveness of China.”
* Note the comment that the Biden election win was “stolen”. I have read about 6 articles which refer to this event so far in Russian sites. Not one doubts that it was “stolen” many referring to it as proof of the degradation of America, that the election was clearly rigged!!! This never carries any judgement of either Trump or Biden, just that it was a rigged election “win”. I dont know how much of this is across the Russian population as a whole, but I’d imagine most of it.
The assessment of Russia which is, as Putin said “Like a monkey who sits in the tree and lets the tigers below fight it out ” is of considerable value I suggest. Their experts read across both nations – US and China, and make a fairly dispassionate assessment, probably more balance than anything out of either, although personally I’d take a Chinese one over anything out of US any day on anything.
But if they are seeing inevitability of war between these two “tigers” then I’d imagine the clock just got shifted to less than a second off midnight!!
Again, it comes down to – how do I take care of myself and my loved ones. Simple as that.
If anyone would like a link to the two American outlets referred I can provide it.
Pamela, all those US aircraft carriers sound the same in the end …. glug, glug, glug, glug!

The real geopolitics behind the Obama/Clinton, and Trump administration, was based on “pay up or shut up”. Will there be any new politics under Biden administration? I think Israel is worried about that. They also know that Biden is under scrutiny already and probably will keep his business dealings out of politics and not involve USA in it any more. The Democrat Party has been taken over by national socialism, and besides that I don’t think they can affort that kind of open corruption.
Marocco paid the Clinton foundation 100s of million US dollars during the Obama administration, so when pres. Trump recognized Western Sahara as part of Marocco (sic.) it was related to pay for protection and political-geopolitical gain) and indicates that Trump was another puppet president who did not make his own foreign policy decisions. His dealings with Israel illegal claim to Golan Heights indicate the same, and several countries recognition of the state of Israel with it’s occupation of Palestine and Golan (Syria) indicate the same.
And now the sums of money transferred back and forth adds up.

A new definition of free speech being discussed both sides of the Atlantic, ( I’m sure that’s just coincidence ) :
https://off-guardian.org/2021/01/16/a-new-definition-of-free-speech/
So the Ministry of Truth is here.
Funny you should just post that, Sandra – I was just going over some notes on how ideology becomes culture
So here’s the way that the new definition will become ‘culture’:
(Btw, altho Gramsci identified as a commie, Im not a commie – but I am an economic nationalist)
“It helps to be clear about the relationships between the terms “culture”, “ideology” and “hegemony”.
Culture is usually taken to mean the whole set of attitudes, values and norms that bind a particular society together into a working unit.
However, according to Marx (and Gramsci), to see this in a morally neutral way is mistaken.
Marx: “Culture is really an expression of ideology designed to protect and promote the interests of a particular class.”
Gramsci: “The function of hegemony is to transform ideology into culture, into a “worldview” that is seen as “normal” and “natural” by everyone from the controlling class to the subordinate (producer) classes.”
The question then becomes one of seeing exactly how this transformation from culture and ideology to hegemony can take place.
In the past, key institutions for establishing the hegemony have been the Church and cultural institutions, such as the education system.
Today the major means of establishing the hegemony are the mass media.
Gramsci: “Mass Media institutions are central for the production of ideas, justification of the ideas, attitudes and perspectives that are the fabric of everyday common sense.” [end quote]
[emphasis mine]
So, expect a massive mass media campaign promulgating the new defintion.
The PTB are now totally tyrannical – even deciding what the d e fintions of words are (which has the psychological effect of keeping the populace always off-center, a little bit off balance, always looking over their shoulder
I remember,
the WHO changed the definition of herd immunity claiming this was achieved only by vaccination ( implying that there is no such thing as naturally acquired immunity ). The vaccines being peddled do not meet the legal definition of a vaccine, now they will tell us what ‘ truth ‘ is – and that will be changed regularly. There is nothing we can trust but our own ability to think critically – which we must exercise, lest we lose it.
Another aspect of their never ending divide-and-rule schemes is keeping the populace wrong footed and discombobulated – unsure what to think. However much Gramsci wanted to tear apart culture / insert ‘ his ‘ people in all institutions, well that’s exactly what’s been done now – compared to what we’re facing today, he was a rank amateur.
I watched a production of La Boheme the other day – in the middle of it – apropos of nothing at all, a man in drag appeared, bearded but with wild make-up and hair, and started dancing to a drum beat that had suddenly appeared from nowhere – I switched off. I watched a program about Glyndebourne – I was just wondering if there would once again be a transvestite nonsensically inserted into an opera. I wasn’t ‘ disappointed ‘. Several bearded men dressed in women’s clothing, mad lipstick / make-up and hair again – oh and with enormous false breasts. The opera was making a big display of social distancing and hand washing. Argghh ! I switched off.
Culture is being reduced to reality shows and computer games – no worries about any critical thinking there. The forced atomisation continues – now we’re told, ” if you meet a friend in the street, don’t stop to talk – it’s dangerous “. So the only human contact is destined to be via screens – if they can get away with it – and that will be withdrawn if you don’t confine your talk / viewing to approved subjects and speech.
T ( is it Tyson ? ), I can’t believe how far we’ve come.

We shouldve always known that after the collapse of central industrialism in the former Soviet Union, that the very next group of people the US/NATO/Collective West/Anglo-zionist Empire were going to turn on – were us, the citizens!

It seems like only the other day that 9/11 happened – and then we saw all the cuts to personal freedom in the name of so-called “National Security”

“When it comes to the world’s most innovative economies, the U.S. is no longer the undisputed leader. Not even close, as it turns out. For the first time, the U.S. fell out of the top 10 on the Bloomberg Innovation Index. After topping the ranking in 2013, America has become less dominant in science and engineering while scoring poorly when it comes to higher education. China fell as well, a sign the fierce competition between the two biggest economies might be opening the door for others.”

The Irresponsibility of Small Nations , 23 August, 2019
“Little doubt the Romanian and Polish governments have been given bagfuls of money by the US military/security complex, which wants the multi-billion dollar contracts to produce the new missiles. Here we see the extreme irresponsibility of small countries. Without the corrupt and idiotic governments of Romania and Poland, Washington could not resurrect a threat that was buried 31 years ago by Reagan and Gorbachev.”

“It does seem that human intelligence is not up to the requirements of human survival.””
I have recently developed a theory – well no, an hypothesis – about that T. which is pretty much in alignment with PCR – just in more detail I think.
It’s this. If it is true that nature abhors a vacuum, even more so does it utterly reject an imbalance.
There are deduced from Chaos And Complexity Theory certain Universal Laws, which hold at all testings. They are these.
That every complexity above sub-atomic particles, is driven to form a complex union. It does so by being most strongly attracted to Like / Similar. That Like/Similar are drawn to Like/Similar, and form the strongest bonds with them. The characteristic recognised as most “Like” becomes more variable the more complex the entity. Among human societies, the most “Like” tends to be cultural similarities, familiarities such as language, food, manners. But we do get many cross cultural unions because the higher frequency individuals recognise a “Like” as internal values, soul frequency, etc.
This Rule is observed to hold from forming molecules to forming human societies. But how do these complex entities maintain a stable existence? The attraction of Like for Like is the centre, but it is held in the face of unending change by the free flow of feedback loops – of which there are many.
The ancients understood this, in their way, from China to the Pacific Coast people of North East Russia who crossed the Bering Straights and migrated down the coast and across the Western Continent, now called America. They understood the need to learn the flow of seasons, animal migrations, and other natural flows, and to learn to meld with them.
Modern peoples the world over seem not to. It’s a lost knowledge. And we have instead tried to live in defiance of these natural laws, even though we can see them being enacted in the wild world around us, all the time.
The biggest thing we have done is to ignore Feed back loops.
So – to how does that affect us now, and related to your comment?? We have a severe imbalance of low frequency peoples, both stupid, lazy, hive minded, fearful and psychopathic, sociopathic, and pure evil. These are driving the world to the edge of extinction, as they have gained control of the world. The higher frequency people are gaining preeminence and dominance in Russia and other nations, but slowly.
That the low frequency people threaten the existence of life on this planet because there is an imbalance of them invokes an essential feed back loop. Their numbers must be reduced and their power. The only way this will happen is that the insanity and poverty of intellect and soul will be driven, or rather will drive itself, to war.
This is the only way, short of a massive, true, infection, which doesn’t exist, or it would have happened, that the numbers can be brought back into some balance, and the wise of world gain predominance.
So – I think war is inevitable, purely because of these Universal mechanisms of the formation of everything.
Altho I dont subscribe to ‘war is inevitable’ (not against Russia anyways) I suspect the ‘war against the people’ using the ‘thing-ee’ may have actually taken the place of war, however I like the way youre thinking Pamela

From the bat-shit crazy insanity of saying that men who are a range of psychotically disturbed to straight out fakers with an agenda calling themselves women, and thus must be so treated, down to putting them in a womens jail – the UK sinks to an unbelievable level of sheer evil with this:
https://www.rt.com/op-ed/514537-britain-child-spies-danger-undercover/
“Is it ethical to use children as covert intelligence sources? And what should they legally be allowed to do? A former top undercover cop has serious fears for the welfare of those employed as undercover operatives.
The UK’s controversial Covert Human Intelligence Sources (CHIS) bill is on the verge of becoming law, after MPs again voted overwhelmingly in its favour on 27 January.
The legislation grants undercover operatives – both employees of British state agencies and their informants – permission to not only commit crimes up to and including rape, torture and murder, but also insulates them from criminal prosecution and civil actions for doing so.
The bill sailed through its first parliamentary reading, although it received a decidedly less welcome reception in the House of Lords. Peers voted to insert significant amendments to the legislation, including restricting the crimes which covert human intelligence sources – Chises – can be authorised to commit, and curtailing how and when individuals who are “vulnerable”, and/or under the age of 18, can be utilised as agents.(…..) “The use of children as undercover informants is, in my view, very largely a morally repugnant policy. Child spies can often be part of violent gangs, or continuing victims of child sexual abuse, when they are recruited as intelligence sources.
“We should normally be seeking to move heaven and earth to remove children from horrible situations,” Davis said. “Do we really want to give such arbitrary and unfettered powers to such agencies? I, for one, do not under any circumstances.”
Stirring words, but when the time came to vote, a majority of MPs rejected the proposals. The final version of the bill is now under consideration by the House of Lords again, with a deciding vote expected on February 9.”
As Vladimir Putin says “a nation that cannot protect it’s children has no future” — If the UK goes ahead and signs this into law, then it has signed it’s own death warrant – and the sooner that death is enacted the better.
Great find Pam,
If memory serves me correctly, Orwell wrote of kids spying on parents in ‘1984’
As we move forward, its becoming increasingly obvious that the book was a manual not just a work of dystopian science fiction!
Huxley’s Brave New World Revisited (Penguin’s blurb: “Brave New World Revisited includes Huxley’s views on overpopulation, propaganda, advertising and government control, and is an urgent and powerful appeal for the defence of individualism still alarmingly relevant today”) is also apt

Yes, I can’t think of a more tragic or horrific thing; and it’s been encouraged in US also. Not, I might add, at least as far as I know – using children as undercover agents to spy on criminal gangs – whose vengeance if they are discovered would be appalling, but to “report on parents” for attending the Capital Hill rally, or even being an active participant in pro-Trump Rallies.
One young boy did, and has cost his Father and Mother their jobs, and being at the moment ostracised by parents, aunts, sisters, who are appalled. Can you imagine that happening to you? Your child doing such a thing?
As you say, far far too many took 1984 and BN to be operations manuals, not warnings.

For anyone here still interested in digging, I mean really digging, into the clusterfl*k of the trump attempts to challenge the fraudulent election, this link is to Chapter 4, the last chapter by Patrick Byrne;
https://www.deepcapture.com/2021/02/how-djt-lost-the-white-house-chapter-4-the-christmas-doldrums-december-23-noon-january-6/
The link will lead to a very long winded article, links to previous three chapters, and extensive comments. Last para is telling, trump held a pep rally on jan 6.
Byrne obviously has no respect for giuliani and his assistant, who he terms medicrity (not sure myself why she was even close to the $20,000/day legal team). giuliani obviously was over his head and did not understand at all how the fraudulent ballots were inserted into the system. And trump seems to continue to believe that it is all about him as the personality.
I think a couple of things are not in dispute, regardless of the feeble incompetent effort to mount a challenge:
-the election was fraudulent and was and is part of an on going coup;
-the effort led by giuliani was completely inept, incompetent, a clear sign was when they kicked Sydney Powell to the curb, in my mind, a competent attorney who understood the issues as opposed to giuliani (to get more into this, the previous three chapters provide more context).
Now a word about Byrne: this is the guy who was spying for the fbi, he set up the Russian woman, marina Butina, on FBI instructions, and deceived her in a very outrageous manner; much of what he did and reported prob was instrumental in her landing in jail. actually solitary for months.
With that in mind, the reasons he is writing these detailed chapters prompts in my mind a great deal of suspicion, skepticism, and cynicism.
https://www.rt.com/russia/507910-maria-butina-prison-book-journal/
I don’t concur with your analysis fully although I share some of your criticism. However the sheer amount of testimony anyway made a deep impact with time on rows of senators in some of the key states and they had still good cards up to the 6th (several delegates would not certify their States results) when Pence betrayed them and himself, read the letter he wrote – he betrayed Trump and he betrayed himself, because he didn’t follow protocol which he deemed sancro sanct in the letter in the first place.
However it’s true that the Trump team acted inept they had no backup plan and no real plan in advance (other than rallies).
Most likely following Flynn and others advice regarding calling out a state of national emergency would most probably have been the least bloody solution of the whole untenable situation (given there was the support from the military which I’m to far away, but the lower rank without a doubt were !) which is going on and most likely developing only to the worse over time. In a coup you are either prepared to go all the way or you will loose !
Trump was a wrench thrown into the gears of the plans by the globalists – he gave us four more years and now the Globalist’s position is much weaker than four years ago. But there is also some devastation of course in the ranks and file of the GOP.
But the main event was the 11.12. (11 = Globalist’s mark and 22 out of 44 also a clear sign) decision of the Supreme Court to allow the States basically to do what they like and thus factually dissolve the Union.
Ted Cruz and Texas immediatly knew what it meant !

Thank you very much Tyson B.
I read with interest, as I made little effort to follow the development of the election. My Spanish is not that good- although it would improve with the effort to understand I acknowledge, but local politics, especially here the Big dirty foot of the Empire is planted – there seems little point.
I have gathered enough of the utter Judas betrayal of He who heads for Switzerland – where else with a 4 billion US $ for betraying Julian Assange, {seems the going equivalent of 30 pieces of silver is 4 billion $ }, and betrayal of his own people and nation was clearly going to be “out”, but after his bald faced lies, how to tell who else would be good?
However if the Corea-ista is leading that would be all to the good,. Since Moreno grabbed the last election swearing to implement all Correa had done, there have been major extra national upheavals which have been closely although silently, watched. The have watched events unfold in Bolivia and Venezuela. They have quietly put up with the trickle of young Venezuelan expats, begging for pennies at traffic lights as they carry babies. They have seen the increase in American traffic here in their land where the American uniform had been expelled. And they have not failed to think.
I believe they are perhaps more independent minded than many other Andean Nation peoples. Certainly for longer, for It was in 1822 that they fought the battles to, as one said to me “throw the Spanish out”. As as pointed out, it’s hard not to see the racial difference in Venezuela, where the Guido-istas are tallish, pale of skin very Caucasian of facial features, rich, and indifferent at best to the miserable lot of the clearly natives of the land; small, often squat, very very dark of skin, straight black hair and black eyes, left in squalor in dreary little boxes, no education and little food, preyed on by the invaders of a few hundred years back. It’s they the people who loved Chavez and do love Moreno belong to and follow, and still fight. Ecuadoreans decided they had had enough of them in 1822 – and it’s been a far happier land since.
However, I do hope this election manages to come off without US interference, but have little hope. It’s the one thing they are good at I’m afraid. Only if the leadership realises they kneed Chinese or Russia backing in one form or another do they have much chance. However, if it becomes clear to the people that was a manipulation – then there will be riots, Covid or no Covid.
Interesting times. Thanks very much for the link.
**NB. Historical note of interest.
The Order of Abdón Calderón is an Ecuadorian decoration instituted in 1904 and awarded for extraordinary military service. It is named after the revolutionary hero who died from injuries sustained on May 24, 1822 during the Battle of Pichincha. Recipients are awarded the decoration for extraordinary military service.
The Battle of Pichincha took place on 24 May 1822, on the slopes of the Pichincha volcano, 3,500 meters above sea-level, right next to the city of Quito, in modern Ecuador.
The encounter, fought in the context of the Spanish American wars of independence, pitted a Patriot army under General Antonio José de Sucre against a Royalist army commanded by Field Marshal Melchor Aymerich. The defeat of the Royalist forces loyal to Spain brought about the liberation of Quito, and secured the independence of the provinces belonging to the Real Audiencia de Quito, or Presidencia de Quito, the Spanish colonial administrative jurisdiction from which the Republic of Ecuador would eventually emerge.

It puts me in mind always of a clip from a comedy movie of some years back. Sadly I cannot remember the names of the stars, or the movie, only a part where, having fought through difficulties to rescue the blond bombshell lead lady, find her and rescue her out of of some sort of disguise and she – uninterested in their travails to rescue her – yells at them in a broad – I think Bronx accent- – “Waaaalll, its abooouwwwt Toiyme. “
RE: Russia expelling diplomates:
And the punks had the temerity to deny their participation. Such behavior is unacceptable and inexcusable and it shows an absolute lack of respect. If one were to observe such demonstrations one would need to formally inform the police and host country of your neutral intentions and perhaps even wear a temporary Press badge.

On his FB page, Dmitry Orlov has a nice photo-op of Defence Secretary of the RF, Sergei Shoigu shaking hands
with a General of Myanmar.
The Caption reads : “After Russian Minister of Defence Sergei Shoigu visited Myanma, it took General Min Aung Hlaing just 10 days to put his house in order and take over, undoing the result of a fraudulent election in accordance with the constitution. I hope that Shoigu visits the US some day.”
So – we had the recent “upset” of the highly backed US election and the US NGO’s backed Aung San Suu Kyi – NED and others have supported her and her party, plus she is a Nobel Prize nominee, so need one say more?
10 days after a highly significant visit from Russia?
So – was Russia behind this, and the move Myanma will now take to re-forming it’s old ties with China.
