Really enjoying Ramaswamy’s effect on the republican nomination slow race. He is doing Trump and doing it well.

He might just be saying what people want to hear. He is no Trump.

Vivek Ramaswamy
-partnered directly with the Chinese government to launch a pharmaceutical company.
-Jan 2022 wrote WSJ article that social distancing and cloth masks work, and that vaccines are most important step in fighting COVID.

So, it’s a NO vote then.
110
Vivek has taken on the biggest source of corruption there is in the climate debate — the Woke Industrial Bankers — the $100 Trillion BlackRocks, GFANZ cabal and co that feed the ESG craze in the corporate and political world. They are the money behind the WEF. He’s brave and incredibly well spoken.
Any candidate that doesn’t aim to put out the fire at the source shouldn’t be in the race.
Do we want to win or not?
Republican voters seem to understand. Anyone but a RINO.
Vivek cheered on George Soros, but only when Soros was pointing out Xi was the most dangerous enemy of open societies. Does that make Vivek a serf of either Soros or Xi, or just a guy speaking his mind?

Sorry, by mistake pushed the thumbs down button.
Was going to say, Vivek’s age, 38yo is a concern. A very successful and erudite young man. Probably pushes all the right buttons to give Trump a run for his money, especially if Trump doesn’t join in the debates by choice, or by force as is the intention of the Democrats with all their writs.
I would question how many palms did Vivek grease, or how much did he speak the talk and walk the walk to comply with other business people or politicians in earning his wealth and success. How much courage does he have? Talking the talk to become President of the USA is the easy part.
Even Tony Abbott, when push came to shove, decided freedom of speech was of third order importance after he was elected after saying he would fight the censoring movements of the extreme left activists. That hasn’t worked out well has it. We are now censored by lawfare, where frivolous accusations, or more serious, cannot be defended due to the legal costs.
The point is, the fight to be had to save the USA from the Democrat, DOJ, CIA, FBI, Media,and oligarchical cabal with total power over the nation currently, will be horrific for the USA to face and will require an absolute, independent, wealthy and politically principled Republican President to pull it off. Trump has the ability, drive and the reasons to fight that fight. I have no reason to believe Vivek has. As Tony Abbott showed, the talk to get the believer’s votes is the easy part. The execution requires determination, courage and belief to succeed.
10
Tony Abbott’s big mistake was to maximise the efficiency of the parliament by postponing contentious legislation.
He was clearly reserving issues which the senate would block for a double dissolution election. But Turnbull usurped that election.
The end result was that the Marxists got away with blaming Abbott for the RET and not reining in spending and other issues which were blocked by the Palmer United Party.
00
So what does he think now? much has been learnt? going to run out of candidates quite fast if the criteria includes never having been wrong.
81
candidates also need to be vetted.
40
By who? to what degree? to whom does it matter ? really we are talking about personal opinions.
20
What do you think the debates and primaries are about then?
Trouble with conservatives here is they discard the good looking for the perfect.
00
so just accept whatever a candidate says without any attempt to verify.

The GOP Debate – Exposing the Neocons
QUESTION: Marty, you have been silent on the GOP debate. Many of us would love to hear your opinion.
ANSWER: It was very disheartening to see those who supported Ukraine. Vivek Ramaswamy was the most level-headed, probably like Trump and RFK; he is not an indoctrinated politician preaching the party line. He said: “We are driving Russia further into China’s hands.”
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who seems to have a single missing to trash Trump, had no problem spouting out the traditional Neocon BS: “We will be next,” Christie recently traveled to Kyiv to meet with Ukrainian officials. He is not worth the space on the stage that he takes up and would be a great threat to our own national security and the lives of our children to be sent to yet another endless, unwinnable foreign war.
Then there is Vice President Mike Pence, who seemed to try to channel Ronald Reagan’s “peace through strength” mantra. He attacked Ramaswamy, saying he had a “pretty small view of the greatest nation on earth.” Pence has no idea of what went on. The Neocons tried to stop Reagan from meeting with Gorbachev, telling him he could not trust a Russian. Regan ignored the Neocons and met with him. Reagan pushed for Russia to join NATO. When Gorbachev was leaning in that direction, they staged a coup to overthrow him. That is when Yeltsin stood on the tank and stopped the coup. When the Neocons tried to rig the 2000 Russian election, even asking me to invest $10 billion into this scheme to take over Russia, and I refused, their stooge, Berezovsky, even called me on the phone to try to get me to comply. I think Pence should look at the facts. Reagan sought peace – not war. Pence has trashed the legacy of Reagan and should fade into the sunset and stop trying to lead the United States into World War III.
Then there is the former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley. She lacked intelligence, clearly brainwashed by the Neocon agenda to accuse Ramaswamy of trying to side with a murderer in Putin. She, too, preached the Neocon agenda of lies. I lost all respect for her in that position.
Ramaswamy also tried to tar the rest of the stage as George W. Bush-era Neocons as beholden to the defense industry. “I wish you luck in your future career on the board of Lockheed or Raytheon,” Ramaswamy told Haley. She retaliated, saying, “You have no foreign-policy experience, and it shows.” That may have gotten the biggest applause of the night. But it also shows how reckless they are and how they have never learned ANYTHING from all the failed endless wars launched by the Neocons.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been more of a China hawk. He seemed to remain mostly silent during the back-and-forth on Ukraine. He chimed in and said that the U.S. aid to Ukraine should be conditioned on European countries doing more to help. He previously called Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine a “territorial dispute.” That much is absolutely correct. The Neocons started this civil war to weaken Russia, and they now have 40,000 American troops in Poland just waiting for the order to attack. The Neocons are horrible people who pray on their knees before they go to bed to Satin to give some excuse so they can order their pawns to attack Moscow.
I know some people hate Ramaswamy and accuse him of improper trading. Anyone who seems to step on a political stage these days must be delusional to think they can make a difference. The Neocons have seized control of the United States. Just look at all the indictments against Trump; they are COORDINATING all these attacks because they fear Trump the most. They have brainwashed so many Americans into hating Trump, which serves their purpose of driving us into World War III.
This is all part of the Decline & Fall of the United States. Just like Spain stole the financial capital of the world from Italy and then lost it to the Germans, who in turn held it briefly with the Flugers, they lost it to the Dutch, and they lost it to the Brits. It took World War I to undermine Britain, and it moved to America as a result. It is just our time to lose it to China. I do not have the luxury of a personal opinion. History dictates nobody retains it forever. Our computer governments want to get their hands on has already seen the trend. By the time we arrive in 2032, all these corrupt republics masquerading as democracies will end as they always do.
My opinion really means nothing. I cannot change what will be. Personally, I would NEVER vote for anyone who supports Ukraine. I lost most of my High School friends to Vietnam. What did they die for? I am tired of the endless lies and the Neocons trying to take over the world with their pretend democracy that denies the people any say in voting on matters of taxes or war. These people have shown that humanity has a very dark side, and the only way to advance is to deny political access to any of these people.
We cannot defeat the business cycle. This is part of it. I wish we could ban such people from public office, but that will never happen. It is just our fate. It does not matter if Biden remains in office or you elect one of these Neocon supporters like Nikki Haley. The Neocons will get their World War III. They control BOTH parties.”

The Cold War was the start of WWIII. The end of the Cold War should have been the ending of WWIII bit it seems the opportunity was squandered.
Reagan is not all that relevant today. Reagan was the man for his time. His time was marked by the fading from influence of the old guard in Russia, the last of the people who had first hand memory of how bad things were in Russia before the revolution. Only that memory could justify how bad things were after the revolution.
Reagan’s sabre rattling highlighted for the USSR the futility of sabre rattling, and was a key factor hastening the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Chernobyl power station disaster was another factor, along with a surplus 50 million tonnes of wheat that the US had injected into the world market in response to Europe’s flooding the market with subsidised grain. That surplus saved the USSR from famine.
And today?
Over 50 years ago I met a man who told me he had been in the German army. I said to myself “You’re not old enough”. But!! The Germans had kids in the army. So maybe he was.
Then, he said, he was in the British army. Errr, whassat?? Again, but!! The British army was in Germany with work to be done, why not employ a starving kid already trained in military discipline? So maybe he was.
Then, in I think 1948 he was demobilised. Along with millions of others. Out of work in Europe.
He then took a job a a mercenary soldier in Mike Hoare’s private army. Something he wished he could just cut out of his life. What they were doing was in The Congo at night setting up machine guns around a village and at dawn shooting up the village and clearing out.
I asked him who was paying for this? He said Jomo Kenyatta. The history books say Tshombe was paying. Either way I think it would have been the USSR.
I wondered if his story was fact or fiction. I think it could have been fact. But why tell me? With the background he described he might have thought that as a landowner I would be a person of influence.
He told me that he had seen Mike Hoare decide he didn’t like the look of a new recruit, take a gun out of his belt and shoot the bloke in the head.
So is this Russia’s / Putin’s plan for Africa in 2023?
I think itwas on this blog I saw (and saved) a marvellous cartoon, with all the leaders of the great nations in military regalia standing in line with bayonets fixed, with the big Russian bear lunging at them with a sword and China sitting against a tree out behind it all laughing. The cartoon was from Punch in 1903.

Hundreds join huge search for Loch Ness Monster –
A search for the Loch Ness Monster, billed as the biggest Nessie hunt in more than 50 years, has been taking place in the Scottish Highlands.
A hundred volunteers helped record natural – and any unusual – sights on Loch Ness from vantage points on land.
Almost 300 have signed up to monitor a live stream from the search, which is taking place on Saturday and Sunday.
Stories of a monster have existed for centuries but it is 90 years since the modern myth of Nessie began.
In April 1933, hotel manageress Aldie Mackay said she had seen a whale-like creature in the loch.

The first time the UFO & extraterrestrial critters was used when Bill Clinton was in hot water over the Monica scandal. Someone suddenly found a piece of “ moon rock “ with what looked like a fossilised worm on it. It was claimed to be proof of extraterrestrial/ intelligent life in space. If only!! These events are now annual events & as predictable as President Fraud’s gaffe’s & blunders.
160
I think the rock you refer to is ALH84001 but it was from Mars and found in Antarctica and it was under Reagan’s presidency. He was an excellent President and had nothing to hide, unlike Clinton.

I used to believe in U.F.O’s but when the government started harping on about them I realised I was wrong.

We laugh at all these beliefs, but blindly accept religions…
But there is so much that is unexplained by current science that we are but apes gazing up at the black monolith of knowledge, as I like to say. ie scientific awareness is relative.
Established science gets torn apart, revised or disproven, almost by the day.
Future scientists will look back at us in the same way we look back and laugh at the science and beliefs of middle ages folk.

Hopefully people in the future will be more mature and wont laugh at us. Do you really laugh at people in the past because they believed things we now know to be false? Grow up.

King Canute did not think that he could turn back the tide. That is a popular misconception. He was demonstrating to his courtiers, who were trying to convince him that he had god like powers and could turn back the tide, that he was indeed a mere mortal. As far as I know his demonstration worked perfectly and they all ended up with wet feet and red faces.

Here’s something useful all those otherwise useless Leftists can do instead of getting convenience products like plastic bags, plastic disposable picnic and fast food ware and plastic straws banned in Western countries where we dispose of our rubbish correctly.
Go to Third World and developing countries as volunteers and work full time teaching them not to throw rubbish in rivers and also physically remove the rubbish from their rivers (yes, some actual hard work, it will be good for you!).
Google “throwing garbage in the river philippines” without quote marks.
It’s not a plastics problem, it’s a behavioural problem.
270
Half the plastic they chuck in their rivers was religiously washed and sorted for supposed recycling in rich countries. Saved from landfill or incineration for energy so all good.
82
By your logic, it was the right who created the mess, shipped a lot of it to the global south, and now you want the left to clean it up.
333
The West is not responsible for the behavioural problems of the Third World and developing countries. Whatever the source of the rubbish, they shouldn’t dump it in rivers.
And it is not true that rubbish or recycling exports from the West are the source. Most of those exports have stopped or never happened.
No one has ever exported rubbish to places like Nepal or Tibet and exactly the same problem exists I have been to both places.
Don’t you Lefties pretend you’re all about helping people? Be a good Leftie and resign from your job and go and help them correct their behavioural problems and help clean up their rivers.

Over a million European slaves were abducted from Europe by North African and Turkish slave traders between 1530 and 1780. This caused the depopulation of coastal towns from Cornwall to Sicily and even as far as Iceland.
No one seems to care about that. And they certainly don’t teach that in the Marxist indoctrination centres euphemistically called “schools”.
It was mostly white Europeans (England first, then the United States) that abolished the institution of slavery, not Africans or anyone else, with the exception of Philippines in 1574 and Japan in 1590.
The first legally recognised slave owner in North America was a black man, Anthony Johnson, a former indentured servant. In 1655 a court ruled that he was the lawful owner of a slave (or “indentured servant for life”). See court case transcript: https://encyclopediavirginia.org/entries/court-ruling-on-anthony-johnson-and-his-servant-1655/
Prior to Johnson, some native American tribes kept war captives from other tribes as slaves so native Americans were slave owners in North America before the Europeans. No one says anything about that either.
A lot of history of slavery is being neglected to be told, everyone has done it and it was not necessarily a race-based phenomenon.

Here is an example of how Wikipedia has been destroyed by activists. This is part of the third paragraph for the entry on “coal”.
280
Incidentally, that article is “locked” thus preventing its correction by anyone except for dedicated Wikipedia activist-Elites.
280
Do they mention that coal was probably the largest contributing factor to the lifestyle we all enjoy now? Or how about our increased life expextancy?
Wikipedia is a lot like politicians – there is too much BS or outright lies mixed in with very little truth.

The Left keep defending China as the world’s largest CO2 producer, by far, more than twice that of the US and rapidly increasing while the US and other Western countries are decreasing their CO2 emissions. Not that it matters, except we don’t have enough CO2.
They also defend the fact that China is building two coal fired power stations per week on average.
At the same time The Left tells us that wind and solar are the cheapest form of power production (an obvious lie, of course).
So why don’t they help China save money and the environment by demanding that they use cheaper wind and solar power instead of “expensive, unreliable coal power”?
They answer, of course, is that the Chinese aren’t stupid and know wind and solar is useless and expensive and unreliable.
Nevertheless, they have a vast slave army of useless idiots of the Left who are helping the Chinese ignore Leftists’ environmental demands of the West and helping China achieve global supremacy, partly aided by cheap and reliable energy from coal. Not to mention a weak West, led by the weakest, worst and most dishonest “leader” the US has ever had, the White House resident Biden.
291
If CO2 is important – we know here that it is an important plant food, indeed, the important plant food – then surely the greens should be clamouring for serious action to be taken against China – “It’s a global problem” we’re told.
Yet ask Greenpiece or any Green Party member – let alone Greenie politician – if they support an immediate all-out nuclear attack on the greatest emitter of CO2 ….
It IS an existential crisis.
Isn’t it?
And China gets a free pass because it is already a communist society with high [rising] levels of social control.

Yes, Your Electric Vehicle Could Be Hacked
EV charging brings multiple security and privacy risks
https://spectrum.ieee.org/ev-hacks
In a world with ever-growing security and privacy concerns, add another item to the list of vulnerabilities: electric vehicle (EV) charging.
Marco De Vincenzi, a researcher at the Istituto di Informatica e Telematica (IIT) in Pisa, Italy, is trying to bring attention to this issue. He and his colleagues led a discussion on EV security and privacy vulnerabilities at the 2023 IEEE 97th Vehicular Technology Conference. The results of their presentation are highlighted in a subsequent conference paper.
De Vincenzi notes that when people plug their EVs into charging stations, it’s not just power flowing through those cables. “These charging stations handle all sorts of data, from how you pay to your exact location,” he explains. “But here’s the kicker: The rules to keep this info secure? They’re like a door with no lock.” …

Looking at the shambles that is the 24 page brochure on The Voice, it seems obvious that it is designed to confuse. The “A proposed law” is printed on pages 8 and 9, yet not included on the sample ballot papers on the last page of the same brochure, which would give the complete content.
On pages 10 and 11 starts “The case for voting yes” and “The case for voting no”. Turn the page to page 12 to continue reading the “no” case and you find yourself in “the case for voting yes”. So instead of having 5 consecutive pages dealing with “yes” and then 5 consecutive pages dealing with “no”, they’re mixed together. So if they think that writing “yes” or “no” on the ballot paper could confuse some non English-speaking voters, then understanding the brochure would defeat them.
The fact that the AEC objected to the criticism that the acceptance of a tick for “yes”, but non-acceptance of a cross for “no” shows that it is biased towards the “yes” vote, then they clearly are a party to the confusion.
To be absolutely transparent and democratic, this should be written in the clearest of terms. They need new advisers. ToM

I just saw some nonsense propaganda put out by the gov’t on TV. It started by saying that a referendum is necessary because The Voice will alter our most sacred document of governance, i.e. the constitution.
How does this align with all the claims from Albo and co to the effect that The Voice is nothing to worry about, will have no powers, won’t make law, etc, etc?
How can it be both important enough to warrant a nationwide, obligatory referendum and a change to Australia’s constitution, yet so insignificant and powerless that we don’t need details and shouldn’t worry our little heads over it?
100
Another point is that interpretation of the scope and powers of The Voice constitutional amendment will be beyond Parliament and up to activist judges in the High Court since it will involve interpretation of the Constitution which is not within the powers of Parliament.
We have A LOT to worry about.
70
After examining some data and graphs posted by commentors here last week it is apparent that even if it was necessary (and we know it’s not) the stuff they are trying to get the developed western world to do won’t work anyway. Especially, taking away or restricting ICE powered private transportation. And we have proof that it won’t make any difference.
For example, the lock downs made no difference at all in the atmospheric co2 concentration ebbs and flows. None.
Another example is Japan. Because of the population density, and the terrain, people just don’t use cars much. 30 year old cars often have no more than 100,000 miles on them. They ride bikes to train stations and ride electric powered trains to their destinations. Much of the electrons come from nuke stations. If commuting to work they often own two bikes, one they leave at their departure station and one at the desitination station. Yet Japan is listed as a major emitter. Makes no difference.
151
And those bicycles, they don’t even lock them up because it is a cohesive society and theft is almost unheard of.
120
.. it is a cohesive society ..
Yes, dead against immigration in the main, they refuse to debase their culture with barbarians from the 3rd world or the West. Their declining population might be the factor that changes that, although not for refugees. I wonder how may Britons think back to Enoch Powell & realise he was right.

And there is no Plan B. Make sure you get your supplies of IVM (at the recommended dose for covid) before the Australian and other WEF controlled governments ban it again. (Assuming the new variants haven’t been engineered to be resistant to IVM.)

Omicron infection following vaccination enhances a broad spectrum of immune responses dependent on infection history
Never let politicians make medical, scientific, engineering, or any other decisions!
Unfortunately people are still not immune to fear mongering and will likely allow the next wave of lockups and forced mRNA “vaccinations” when the next variant is released.

The next COVID virus variant is apparently called BS 24/7.

As they have run out of Greek Alphabet letters they are now going to use Australian Cyclone names.
So, the next COVID virus variant is going to be COVID Tracy.

First Covid deaths were fully vaccinated, Queensland Government records show
When the border opened and Covid started to spread in highly-vaccinated Queensland, the first Covid death was double vaccinated. So were the majority of deaths thereafter.
In 2021, the Queensland Government closed the state’s borders and campaigned heavily to get everyone vaccinated. The state had managed to keep Covid cases to near zero since the start of the pandemic, but it couldn’t stay closed off forever.
The borders would reopen when 80 per cent of the community had been vaccinated, promised Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk (pronounced pal-uh-shay). This would “stop the spread of this virus,” and “protect vulnerable Queenslanders.”
But when the state hit its 80 per cent target and the borders reopened in December 2021, the exact opposite happened.1 Cases exploded, and as the vaccines had evidently failed to prevent infection or transmission, the official messaging quickly pivoted to focus on vaccines providing protection against severe illness and death.

160 people arrested on arson charges for Greek wildfires that the media previously blamed on climate change
https://www.theblaze.com/news/arson-arrests-greece-wildfires-climate-change-media
180
They blamed “climate change”. The truth is it was arson. I don’t see any retractions being issued.
170
“They blamed “climate change”. The truth is it was arson.”
Watch the exact same thing happen here this summer.
100
Arson may start the fires but neglect allows them to become uncontrollable. Authorities don’t have to get off their A’s and do their jobs if they have a scapegoat.
80
The inconvenient truth that they won’t tell you, re the Greek wildfire/forest fires.
Arson is a major factor, yet so is the reporting from distorted databases.
OK
After 1997, the number of Greek wildfire/forest fires suddenly tripled in size and number.
Why is that???… Well the media and scientists/experts tell us daily, that it’s all due to climate change.
It is not true.
Understand that the Hellenic Fire Service, became responsible for forest fires in 1998, and records every bush, grass, forest/wildfire call that they respond to.
And before 1998…
The Greek Forest Service was responsible for wildfire/forest fires.
The policy of the Greek Forest Service was to only record those fires on which they had to take action, because they were spreading toward or burning on forest lands.
So the hectares burnt by wildfires that did not impact on or include forest lands were not reported.
In 2023, we get the usual experts comparing 2021 with 1985. Disregarding the reporting methods.
And claims are made… “Since 1985, there has been a 20% increase in hectares burnt!” “Climate change!!”
Ok… lets look at a summary of the data:
1985 Greek fires (105,000 hectares burnt), part recorded.
2021 Greek fires (125,000 hectares burnt), fully recorded. All wildfires, (bush, grass, forest).
Hmmm … I ask re the summary above… How can anyone competant compare an incomplete data set against a comprehensive one and make an accurate conclusion?
Who truly knows the total max hectares burnt in 1985, or in any years pre 1998? (Greece)
How could anyone attribute a trend or cause to climate change today, using the pre 1998 data?
It would be a guess.
It also may be of interest, that for Greece, the worst year for forest/wildfires was 2007.
270,000 hectares were burnt. That is 2.16 times greater than the area of the 2021 fires, 2.5 times the current 2023 fires…
They don’t tell you that.. Probably by choice…How can they use the word “unprecedented” if they remind you of what happened 16 years before.
Make of that what you will.
This is the inconvenient truth.
Aside from arson, lets look at motive for agencies and govts to spread alarm.
If they convince us that fires are getting worse every year due to climate change, then they have their Ponzi scheme.
Fire departments will bid and be awarded extra funding, each and every year to combat the supposed “catastrophic” effects of climate change.
Scientists will get increased multi year research grants.
Governments have a patsy for their inept policies. More power to legislate. More power to control.
Media will have their ongoing”catastrophic/ unprecedented” headline.
And… None will be held accountable.
I am a fire investigator.
I work for a government dept.. I know how the “Fire service “climate change” ponzi scheme” works.

The World Health Organization promotes quackery yet again
https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-world-health-organization-promotes-quackery-yet-again/
The World Health Organization held the First WHO Traditional Medicine Global Summit this weekend. Unfortunately, its claims of being “evidence-based” aside, the conference followed the WHO’s usual pattern of serving as propaganda, not science. The summit was one-sided, organized by believers with the only speakers being believers, to promote a predetermined policy goal of promoting traditional medicine and justify “integrating” it with science-based medicine…
50
It’s OK for traditional medicine quackery (although some of it does work because the ancients did by accident discover some genuinely pharmaceutically active compounds in plants) but it is NOT OK to use IVM or HCQ according to appropriate protocols?

I wonder what he says about charging your electric car? Not overnight?
“A man who died in a house fire in Sydney’s south-west had gone upstairs in an attempt to extinguish the blaze, which may have been caused by lithium batteries, firefighters say.-
Fire and Rescue NSW Superintendent Andrew Shurety said …to take precautions when charging lithium-ion batteries, including not charging them on a flammable surface such as a bed, and charging e-bikes and e-scooters outside and not overnight.”
https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/man-dies-in-unit-fire-in-sydney-s-south-west-20230827-p5dzor.html

Well, until a totally non flammable , practical, battery system is commercialised, we had better adopt Nomex underwear !
Battery/ cordless devices are too integrated into our lifestyle to be restricted to “outdoor charging”,..or maybe we have to add a special charging shed to out back yards ( and how would that work for appartment blocks ?)
Scooters, ebikes, etc are only just beginning, and are still a minor risk compared to the billions of cordless power tools, vacuum cleaners, laptops, mobile phones (all of which have proven their ability to spontaneously combust !)
But perhaps the biggest risk will be the domestic solar storage batteries that are being forced onto those wanting to reduce their electricity costs.
Lithium cell technology remains key to all these devices currently.

(COPIED FROM ELSEWHERE)
What was extremely disturbing about the last century 😶?
Imagine for a moment that you were born in the year 1900.
When you were 14 years old, World War I begins and ends only when you are 18 years old, leaving 22 million dead.
A little later, a worldwide pandemic, the Spanish Flu, appears, killing 50 million people. And you are alive, 20 years old.
At 29 years old, you survive the global economic crisis that began with the crash of the New York Stock Exchange, causing inflation, unemployment and hunger.
When you are 33 years old, Nazism comes to power.
When you’re 39, World War II starts and ends when you’re 45, with 60 million dead.
When you are 52 years old, the Korean War begins.
When you’re 64, the Vietnam War starts and ends when you’re 75.
A person born in 1985, for example, thinks that their grandparents have no idea how difficult life is, not knowing that they have survived several wars and catastrophes.
Today we have been living with a great pandemic for more than a year. We are scared and tired. We lost friends and relatives, we are scared.
In the past, conditions were even worse, but yes, humanity survived under these conditions and overcame it.
Believe me, better days await us.
180
Unusual to be born in 1985 with 85 year old grandparents
23
It doesn’t say the grandparents have to have been born in 1900. They can still have survived several wars and catastrophes if born much later.
And a person born in 1900 can have experienced all the things mentioned by age 75.
The grandparents mentioned and the person able to experience the things up to the end of the Vietnam War don’t have to be the same people.

My father was 70 yrs old when his youngest grandchild was born, but that’s not the point of the narrative.
He fought in France in the Great War, survived the depression only to have his bride die in childbirth so had a motherless babe in days when there was no social security to help. He never settled well and my brother criticised him for this but I cut him some slack. By the time my turn came to make my own way the opportunities were there, too young for Korea too old for ‘Nam. Did my time in the services never hearing a shot fired in anger, my squadron never lost a pilot in my time. We had it good.

National Socialist inventor Dr. Franz Lawaszeck wrote:
Rupert Darwall also documented it in ‘Green Tyranny: Exposing the Totalitarian Roots of the Climate Industrial Complex’ – “which traces the roots of modern, human hating, environmental nihilism back to Heinrich Himmler and his warped ‘blood and soil’ ideology.”.
Siemens fail to mention their use of slave labour at Auschwitz, Ravensbrück and Lublin extermination camps.

From that Siemens article….

Industrial Society and Its Future
Theodore Kaczynski 1995

Kaczynski on scientists:
THE MOTIVES OF SCIENTISTS [Sections 87 to 92]
89. The same is true of scientists generally. With possible rare exceptions, their motive is neither curiosity nor a desire to benefit humanity but the need to go through the power process: to have a goal (a scientific problem to solve), to make an effort (research) and to attain the goal (solution of the problem.) Science is a surrogate activity because scientists work mainly for the fulfillment they get out of the work itself.
92. Thus science marches on blindly, without regard to the real welfare of the human race or to any other standard, obedient only to the psychological needs of the scientists and of the government officials and corporation executives who provide the funds for research.
41
THE FUTURE postulates on AI mostly i.e. present day.
STRATEGY alludes to present day:
201. Suppose for example that the revolutionaries took “social justice” as a goal.
THE DANGER OF LEFTISM – definitely present day.
21
THE DANGER OF LEFTISM
230. The more dangerous leftists, that is, those who are most power-hungry, are often characterized by arrogance or by a dogmatic approach to ideology. However, the most dangerous leftists of all may be certain oversocialized types who avoid irritating displays of aggressiveness and refrain from advertising their leftism, but work quietly and unobtrusively to promote collectivist values, “enlightened” psychological techniques for socializing children, dependence of the individual on the system, and so forth.

Denmark Joins the List of Countries That Have Sharply Restricted Youth Gender Transitions
A major medical journal Ugeskrift for Læger, the Journal of the Danish Medical Association, confirmed that there has been a marked shift in the country’s approach to caring for youth with gender dysphoria. Most youth referred to the centralized gender clinic no longer get a prescription for puberty blockers, hormones or surgery—instead they receive therapeutic counseling and support.
In the course of less than a decade, like every other Western country, Denmark experienced an exponential increase in the number of young people presenting with gender dysphoria. In 2014, there were only 4 documented pediatric cases who requested gender reassignment. By 2022, the number of referrals grew by 8700% to 352, similar to the several-thousand-percent increase in less than a decade witnessed by a number of Western countries. As the number of young people wishing to undergo gender reassignment increased, so did the rates at which Danish gender clinicians transitioned them. By 2018, Denmark’s centralized gender service was medically transitioning 65% of referred youth. This was similar to the proportion of referred children who got transitioned reported by other pediatric gender clinics. For purposes of comparison, the Netherland’s Amsterdam gender clinic reports transitioning 73% of late-onset referrals and 85% of early-onset referrals and in the US, researchers analyzing data from Seattle Children’s Hospital gender clinic reported that over 60% of the referrals underwent medical transition with puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones within one year of intake.

Coincidence
00
We keep hearing that this windfarm will power 10 000 or 75 000 houses. How come no one asks how much heavy industry they can power?
130
And also how many homes in truth?
The fact is that the numbers are meaningless because the power is random.
Exactly ZERO homes is what any wind subsidy farm can be guaranteed to power, no matter what its size. Most of the time it is the ever-diminishing amount of coal or gas; and hydro (not SH2) or in proper countries, nuclear power stations.
110
Furiously Curious mentions this:
And not one single person or commentator anywhere evens mentions the minimum that electrical power consumption gets down to every single night.
That’s the lowest point that actual total power consumption drops to.
Here in Australia that lowest point is now almost 19,000MW each and every night, not just occasionally, but that’s the average every day.
That low point of 19,000MW occurs at around 4AM, when nearly everyone is tucked up tight in bed, sound asleep.
And yet the total AEMO coverage area (and that is all of the Country of Australia East of the WA border) is still consuming 19,000MW at that minimum point every day. Five years ago it was 18050MW. It’s been gradually rising, no matter how many efficiencies have been introduced, no matter how many Industries have closed, no matter how many power saving devices are introduced, and yet it is still ever so gradually INCREASING.
Of that total, here are the contributions from the renewables of choice at that low point at 4AM every morning:
Commercial Solar Power plants – Zero
Rooftop Solar Power – Zero
Wind Generation – 3100MW
Hydro Generation 1900MW
So ….. EVERY renewable is delivering on average 5000MW.
That leaves 14,000MW that is required to keep the Country operating.
That’s an ABSOLUTE.
For the other twenty three and a half plus hours, it’s higher than that.
Where do those renewable advocates even think in their wildest dreams where that amount of power is going to come from.
Huh! Not that it even matters, because all of them are blissfully unaware that it even exists.
It’s what is called ….. THE BASE LOAD. It’s roundly scoffed at as being non existent, but hey, you only need look at any (and every) Load Curve for daily power consumption to see it.
Tony.

“Where do those renewable advocates even think in their wildest dreams where that amount of power is going to come from.”
They dream of power, just not the kind you’re advocating for.
Their plan is not confined to OZ.
And it is not a failure.
The Pandemic is evidence of the success of the plan.
I would say Oz is a one of the principle lab rats.

Vitamin B12 so powerfully beneficial for brain health that psychiatric drugs could become OBSOLETE
A shocking number of psychiatric disorders that Western medicine tries to treat with pharmaceutical drugs have at their root a vitamin B12 deficiency, which is easily remedied through diet and supplementation.
In a piece she wrote for The Epoch Times, Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF) founding president Sally Fallon Morell unpacked the findings of a 2015 case report published in the Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine (IJPM) concerning vitamin B12 deficiency and neuropsychological disorders.
Manifesting many common symptoms associated with autism, the boy was placed on an ever-evolving cocktail of drugs after being diagnosed with “acute schizophrenia-like psychotic disorder.” He was given:
• Lorazepam, a drug used to treat anxiety disorders
• Olanzapine, an antipsychotic drug
• Sertraline, an antidepressant drug more commonly known as Zoloft
• Aripiprazole, an antipsychotic drug
When those four strong drugs ultimately failed the body, resulting in him becoming hyper with “suspiciousness, hearing voices, over-talkativeness, over-cheerfulness, inflated self-esteem, decreased need for sleep, increased appetite, increased pleasurable activities, and disruptive socio-education,” his diagnosis was revised to “schizoaffective disorder, manic type” and his Zoloft was replaced with divalproate sodium, a drug used to treat seizures.
After the boy’s symptoms worsened even more, he returned for yet a sixth drug: lithium carbonate, a drug used to treat bipolar disorder.
After the boy was given several injections of vitamin B12, lo and behold his symptoms improved and his diagnosis was revised to “schizoaffective disorder secondary to Cobalamin (vitamin B12) deficiency” – problem solved.
It was a very simple solution – and a safe one, at that – and yet it took multiple rounds of erroneous drugging and testing before Indian doctors were able to figure out that the boy simply lacked a necessary vitamin crucial to his brain health and mental abilities.
“B12 deficiency is associated with a wide range of psychological disorders – depression, memory loss, Alzheimer’s, anxiety, irrational or chronic anger, violent behavior, and other psychological problems,” Morell notes.
http://www.stationgossip.com/2023/08/vitamin-b12-so-powerfully-beneficial.html
This is a common criticism of psychiatry – the solution in a toxic pill approach, typically making the patient worse.
Numerous articles condemning psychiatric drugs due to their limited research and unknown effects have been published, and just as many published showing severe mental disturbances from these drugs.
How many mass shootings are due to psychiatric patents on mind altering drugs? A LOT!
Blame their shrinks, not the gun makers.
Check diet first before prescribing drugs.
How hard is that?
Of course meat and dairy are high in B12, but meat and dairy are top of the WEF hitlist too.
Don’t want the masses thinking too much now do we.😎
160
no, no, no, no, no.
how would big pharma make money from psychotropics then?
90
No,no,no,no,no.
Big pharma loves you, wants to cure all your diseases, and put themselves out of business. 😆
80
i think the business model is continued treatment over a lifetime,
rather than outright cure.
20
I learnt that at Uni in 1968, you could give people a special diet and turn them into a constant state of anxiety, or cure anxious people by added B12 to their diet.
So, going over that talk about PFAS and sickness, just how many diseases do we suffer from now that people in 1823 didn’t?? There is a long list, including the ever-popular heart disease and diabetes, and the elephant in the room are the nervous diseases. Who is NOT on drugs these days?
We are not a healthy society, we live a longer more medicated, miserable life surrounded by thousands of unnatural man-made chemicals and foods and bathed in EMF radiation. Its so complex now its probably impossible to sort out what is responsible for which condition.
There’s a lot to be said for the Amish growing all their own food and avoiding the worst of modern society’s stupidities.
60
The modern world, the stresses, the diets, the em radiation, the time spent inside are the primary causes of most all diseases.
I read a few years ago about ancient egyptians remains being examined for traces of cancer, and it was virtually absent.
I think it was about 6 in 3,000, and that’s in a society that’s medically primitive.
Compare that to today.

Modern Dangers: EMFs Linked To Miscarriage And Fertility Issues
Wireless devices and gadgets are growing in popularity because they are convenient to use.
However, research suggests that electromagnetic fields (EMFs) commonly linked to these devices are associated with various health issues in men and women.
EMFs can stop eggs from being released and cause harm to eggs stored in the ovaries. Experts said some types of EMFs can also affect the growth of egg-containing structures called follicles, which can make it harder for women to get pregnant.
Studies have also found that EMF exposure can make animals take longer to have babies.
Male animal subjects exposed to radiation from mobile phones also experienced damage to their testicles.
A 2021 study found that male mice exposed to 4G phone signals grew irregular layers of cells in their reproductive organs. Researchers reported that 4G radiation might hurt rat kidneys and testes.
A review in Electronic Physician suggested that EMFs can reduce and kill sperm-producing cells in mice. Studies analyzed in the review showed that EMFs can break the DNA in cells that grow into embryos.
Kjell Hansson Mild, a radiation consultant at Umea University in Sweden, explained that EMF exposure while pregnant is closely tied to miscarriages.
According to studies on pregnant women working in offices, constant exposure to EMF from computer monitors can harm human reproduction and cause birth defects and miscarriages.
One such study was conducted by Kaiser Permanente in California. Researchers tracked more than 900 pregnant women to find any links between non-ionizing EMF exposure and the risk of miscarriage.
Data revealed that women who had more exposure to strong magnetic fields were at least three times more likely to have a miscarriage compared to women with less exposure.
Dr. De-Kun Li, the lead author and a reproductive and perinatal epidemiologist at Kaiser Permanente, explained that because of the current lack of research on this subject, experts still “don’t know the biological threshold beyond which problems may develop.” Continued study is also needed to fully understand the possible mechanisms for increased risks.
http://www.womensystems.com/2023/08/modern-dangers-emfs-linked-to.html
Safe and effective, until it proven otherwise, and then it’s too late.
If you don’t know the threshold, then you can’t make safety claims.

Not a single prophecy has come to pass in any religion EVER, so they go to another fallacy – man made climate change.

Depends on your interpretation of prophecies and the interpretations of interpretations of the bibles.
If you can’t see that we are in the times of the great deception NOW, you are not where you need to be.
What if the Beast was Technology, the science, it all comes down to your interpretation, and one could say it has performed miracles, look at the Human Genome project and CAS9. Our DNA is God’s creation, the Devil wishes to destroy all of God’s Creations (so he can Build Back Better!) The fake vax changes our DNA via the unseen hand of science.
Plagues don’t have to be grasshoppers or frogs, computer viruses would count, an imaginary virus did more damage than any other in our history, a virus of our collective minds.
We all see a food crises coming, this would be famine what if the famine was not food but the supply chain, same result. We can all see a digital ID coming in the form of a chip, could this be the mark of the beast or could the beast be media, as the beast is the great deceiver, everything it utters is a lie, depends on your interpretation.
If you look at what has been prophesied, with an open mind you may be able to tie things together.
You believe in Martin Armstrong’s predictions, his models, though you have never sighted his models or the data he says he inputs, you believe his predictions. These are your bible and prophecies.
People believe the science of climate change, without question, even when the prophecies fail, they cling onto the belief.
There is indeed a pyramid of evil above us, I know what the keystone is, I have no idea how this will manifest itself. I will listen to all sides of the debate, I hope I can keep an open mind.
I don’t believe in religion itself, though I do believe there is a God and again I have no idea how he will appear.
In this glass house, I would not be throwing stones.

Interesting story from Sky
Sales sent an email to ABC “Journalists a note to push the line that the Uluru Statement from the Heart was only one page and that the rest was simply minutes (which is blatantly a lie)
My comment on this got censored.
Disgraceful performance by Sales. If someone attempts to have a conversation with you, tell this lie often and for long enough.
The ABC’s finest.

I’m not surprised! The document in question shows the Aboriginal body would not be there for advice on any new laws, it would be there for consent.

So, the U$A is lining up NZ and Australia to be the new southern hemisphere Ukrainians. A tanking economy and loss of your youth will surely follow if you don’t exert your sovereignty and independence ?

Lol! NZ, smaller than Sydney, no air force, a military that wouldn’t last a week in Ukraine…
No, it would be like WW2, the Yanks just want NZ as a resupply hub and rest, recreation and women. There’s no independence in the South Pacific, we are both enthusiastic little lapdogs of America’s, only the politicians pretend we’re not. If it was important, we would be buying Russian arms that are just as good or better, and far cheaper than America’s.
