Thrashing around carpet bombing since they know they can't win.

“It’s not like the post-war period,” he said. “In fact, after the Second World War, many of the advanced countries started at very high levels of debt – the United States, the UK, many European countries – but they brought it down dramatically over 30 years. How did they do it? Rapid growth and inflation. And both of those are not possible anymore.”

“Rapid growth is no longer possible; these are now aging societies; productivity growth is much lower than before,” he said.

“And inflation is not going to be tolerated by older societies,” he said. “They may be tolerated when societies are young and everyone’s incomes are going up, but it’s not going to be tolerated now. So that option isn’t there.” Like medication that is not tolerated and makes the sick patient even sicker.

As always .gov only does "the right thing" when out of all other options, as the "right thing" is drop some of these "needs".

The mask ripped off

Microsoft found the underwater data center to be eight times more reliable than those on land, crediting the dry nitrogen air inside the container as being less corrosive than oxygen.

Sounds like the novel anti-biofouling coating worked very well also. Huge implications.

I hope people count coups on the karens by wearing human scalps soon.

Foot traffic down 50% and more, along with travel. Make serfdom great again

Pennsylvania lockdown thrown out as unconstitutional, Ohio case working through the courts. They are all strictly unlawful, as all emergency measures are.

It’s hard out there for a kulak.

most of this lust for meaning goes not into power, but into the mere appearance of power: power porn. If there is any fighting style that prevails in mixed martial arts, it is Brazilian jujitsu. If there is any trope that prevails in the modern marketplace of ideas, it is the pornography of importance.

Literally everything is just clout. The ideas don't even matter. The cathedral and the universities are completely corroded anuses.

Dissidents under all regimes often come to grief by expecting power, their enemy, to be fair to them—or believing that some demonstration of unfairness will harm the regime's legitimacy. Actually, successful illegitimate action confirms a regime's legitimacy. Only the powers that be can break their own rules.

The primary impact of dissidents in the modern regime is as scapegoats and/or naive provocateurs. Power, which would otherwise have to explain its troubled relationship with reality, instead gets enemies it can blame for its failures—shoring it up nicely. While these enemies are perfectly sincere in their animosity, and can be irritating and even damaging, they are orders of magnitude too weak to be an existential threat.

And even if dissident energy is simply wasted, all energy is finite. Even dissipating the enemy’s energy is a victory. And this is how most dissidents, too, reinforce the regime.

The fatal conceit of activism laid bare. Anyone in this sphere has felt this in their life in living color. This is why Agorism is the only option. Just start living your life free.

For example, ritually desecrating the temples, monuments, idols, or other sad fetishes of a weak, beaten people is a time-honored way to flex on them and keep them weak. Nine hundred years before Jesus, the Assyrians had already made themselves masters of this art. If you think you are something different from an Assyrian, you are wrong.

If anyone on the right think they're gonna win this one, they're dead wrong. If you can't protect your sacred symbols, it's already over.

Great stuff:

Modern civilization, thanks to innovations in communication from Gutenberg to Pornhub, has returned to its beginning. In 2020, everyone is totally connected. So everyone can and must be engaged with power—just like when we were chimps.

The total state is no longer content with physical compliance. It demands emotional security. Power is not just obeyed. Power must be loved. And this reversion to the total state, our most ancient form of government, makes the modern regime, despite all its toys and transistors, seem somehow surprisingly barbaric.

But when power has our emoluments and our compliance, why does it need our homage? Why must it pester us so, for the mere trinket of love?

Because it feels insecure. Power always feels insecure. Everyone wants power—so it should feel insecure. And the worse its performance, the more insecure power feels, because the more insecure it is; so the more homage it must demand.

Chasing clout on instagram, apparently

The fact that a guy like this comes out of the bureaucracy in the first place tells you this faction is bigger than suspected. Disaffected underlings who are powerless yet thirst for greatness are everywhere in the pentagram. Those who don't "make necessity a virtue" and embrace the system either bomb out as libertarians or New Right guys. It's from here that a leader of the counterrevolution will emerge.

Also note that this piece has all the hallmarks of establishment smear jobs. Unsurprisingly they then attempt to associate Ron Paul with him, as that's what this article is actually about -- attempting to falsely associate Scheuer with the greater libertarian movement, which he ain't associated with. Hilariously, the author's twitter handle is "@attackerman", which seems apt.

The fact that it's publicly funded guarantees it will have less transparency. This is how it works.

Murder the economy for no reason

Nothing would shock me from fedghouls

Reason 6 trillion to get out of Afghanistan.

Overblown, I suspect like all other times. Even if we get a civil war, the outcome of the election won't actually matter. Things are already in motion if so.

This time by the pentagram itself.

And pretty important evidence that the Pentagram actually is.

MINDSPACE rearing it's ugly head once more, but it's really just the state embracing "biopower".

The real magic is indeed drugs.

Amazing they believed the bullshit for this long. Something literally impossible to do economically isn't gonna be done.

Probably the best outcome, It won't hurt Oracle's reputation beyond where it already is.

Bless your grift
