Even though this is a poor recording, this Spanish/American plays it better than the rest, IMO.

And I’ve listened to a whole lot of them.

The FBI have film showing Chauvin did something very similar to what he did to Floyd several years before to a 14 year old boy, who also was hit on the head with Chauvin’s torch for not doing what he said. Chauvin has a creepy thing for holding down handcuffed males on their chest for inordinate periods of time (against the police procedure that specifically forbids keeps someone like that) and choking them. As a result of not firing him over the previous incident–in which the boy lost consciousness–Floyd unsurprisingly did the same thing again, and to someone obviously not in the prime of life or best of health. I have no sympathy for Chauvin at all.

Glock is by far the most popular police sidearm, and for good reason: superior ergonomics, safety and capacity. The old S&W .38 special doesn’t compare. Feel free to go down to a range, rent one and give it a try. Then try a .38 special single/double action revolver and you’ll see what I mean.

I wouldn’t go that far.

Most people will shoot a revolver more accurately in single action.

Of course Glocks are better police weapons but for a single shot you would want the 38.

Glocks are mostly popular because they are reliable and well known. They are the Honda accord of the gun world. So there is a government CYA factor at work. I actually doubt most officers would choose one over a Sig if they shot both. The Army recently chose Sig over Glock so it will be interesting to see how Glock responds now that they have some serious competition.

Look you were 90 % of the western population for a long time and you complain that no one helped you? You allowed 2 % to fuck you up, lol. Russia btw supported Trump in the US, and he won. And he blew it, allowing himself to be wiped out like a total loser.

It also supported Lega in Italy, FPO in Austria, AFD in Germany, Le Pen in France..

No one stopped you from doing a military coup. By the way the world is a jungle, there is no fair play in it.

It is precisely that that is killing you. Childish thinking of the type “look at what a white knight i’m”. “Look at how fair i’m”. “Look at my advanced values”.

This is childish thinking. Sounds like decadence driven by the narcisism of all powerful wealthy empire and its people becoming decadent and obsessed with proving to each other how advanced and sophisticated (woke?) they are.

You just bragged how you are woke (look at my values, lol) and you don’t even get it. Same thinking. They (woke ones) come from you. Other side of the medal.

I agree with Boss Hog.
There is really no place perfect but out here in the campo it is closer to heaven and no masks.

It’s a very weird notion that can only be held by people who don’t possess any sense of ownership of a place or people who should but feel better administering their coping mechanism of choice, that it doesn’t matter really and everything will be fine. To generate real social solidarity you need a sense of shared history and shared destiny. You don’t get this if the people of the land is taped over every 50 years.

But class politics is also dependent on the assumption that the most important divide in terms of group resource allocation is class. But what happens when it isn’t? What happens when the most salient form of group difference isn’t class but race and ethnicity? You get Northern Ireland, where political parties are defined ethnically. Both groups there have long since come to terms with the other not going anywhere soon and yet, class politics doesn’t emerge.

And in the US in many Southern states there is also undeniable ethnic bloc voting with old stock whites and blacks since the civil rights period. Those two groups have been there a long time too.

Time and time again we’ve seen countries break away from richer ones to obtain self-determination, time and time again the Nordic countries with some of the most stable, ethnically homogeneous populations continue to manifest much greater amounts of social solidarity to support generous social welfare states and sensible long-term planning.

Anytime a society is riven with serious ethnic diversity, democracy becomes an ethnic headcount, there is no exception. And if it doesn’t produce this result directly then a lowered sense of ownership and shared history and destiny will make many in the middle classes and up, indifferent to the public good.

Brazil and Italy are great lessons that countries can and do fall into long-term intergenerational malaise that may be impossible to overcome. Picketty and others before him have noted that equality and high social solidarity are entropically unstable and immigration is the force of spreading inequality and low social solidarity like manganese diffusing through water.

“Adding diversity to our melting pot will speed up America’s inevitable and necessary transition from a ‘nation of all European races’ to a ‘nation of all races.’ The sooner that happens — the sooner people realize that America’s multi-racialization is a done deal

Ah, Noah, you sweet Summer child, I see that you actually believe all that “multiracial” kitsch that they dish out to the rubes. I’ll explain it for you. A Multiracial USA will simply be a nation divided between the BIPOC (who are good, righteous, noble) and the whites (evil, parasitic, so vile that they do not deserve reverential capitalization).

Coates was already writing for The Atlantic back then.

Because “total fertility rate” doesn’t measure what the fertility rate of the actual people was, but just how how many births were timed in each year relative to the age groups. It has a predictive value at the time, but if you look at the final fertility rates (cohort fertility rate), then Germany was just below replacement fertility apparently through all 1930s.

Also note that at this time replacement level was higher than today’s 2,1.

Germany is only seems to just temporary climb just above replacement fertility after the Second World War.

Agree.

Watch Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train some time, the gun use at the very end of the movie is just bizarre. Maybe it made sense back in 1951, but now it’s nuts.

Great movie. Just not for the shooting at the fleeing felon part.

Here’s a pretty I-Steve article about a talented Nigerian girl accepted into all the colleges.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/30/africa/nigerian-teen-19-scholarships-intl/index.html

Apparently, it’s notable because she’s not Nigerian American but full blown Nigerian Nigerian.

“They have made me truly feel proud about the hard work I have put into several areas of my life over the years. I am slowly beginning to realize that I deserve them,” she said.

She seems smart, she’ll learn pretty quickly that hard work is a white supremacist dog whistle.

Your lack of understanding of US history is quite telling.

Well look who’s talkin! Your lack of understanding of U.S. “government” evil is breathtaking.

NV obviously didn’t threaten freedoms in the US but “creeping communism� as archaic as the term seems today, was thought at the time to be a major threat to freedoms worldwide.China used NV to fight a proxy war with the US to help them attain their expansionist goals. Pretty simple really.

ROTFL! Just FYI, the U.S. “government” doesn’t give the slightest damn about your (or anyone else’s) “freedom” (except to routinely infringe it as the agenda requires); the U.S. “government” does what it does because it’s evil.

It’s like the difference between a modern, high performance automatic transmission and a 1950s stick shift.

This is so true, and people don’t realize it. For example, my prized possession is my gold-painted Desert Eagle. But in 2021, I wouldn’t call it state of the art anymore.

There was a short-lived TV series in 1986 called ‘Outlaws’, which was a Western version of the A-Team. Five men from 1899 were transported to 1986 by an act of nature. They kept using 1890s-era weaponry to beat 1986 criminals, and still won on account of superior marksmanship. But the technological inferiority of the antique-grade weapons was a side joke.

Brazil says hi.

Brazil says, “You should have copied our immigration policy. In addition, we can teach you a whole lot about maintaining linguistic integrity.

“We can also sing, dance, and cook. And we look nice on the beach.”

The emotionality of your vitriol against Whitey suggests a personal origin, have you had negative experiences interacting with gweilo devils or what?
Your attitude is curious, I had always assumed oriental resentment of whites was long in the past, since it seemed bred mostly of an inferiority complex when Asia was poor and backward, but that’s no longer the case. I could only really see it in places like Thailand that are inundated with sex-tourism, but even there, it seems now that are nearly as many seedy old Korean or Japanese men there as Germans or Australians.

Uh oh! Basement-dwelling pissants with no concept of reality are going to jump your shit for “low IQ” and “moral incompetency.”

Don’t sweat the small shit, brother.

My impression is that cops fired a lot in the past as well, but they were more likely to hit their targets only once or twice per fusillade. Now, cops are more competent, so, relative to the level of emergency medical care (which has vastly improved), they are more likely to kill their targets, which leads to increased complaints about police brutality.

The difference is probably bullet technology. Modern engineering has made hollow points far more effective.

You do not want to take a modern 9mm hollow point anywhere. Just look at videos on youtube where they do tests on ballistic gelatin. Older hollow points didn’t always expand while newer polymer core soft points not only reliably expand but maintain their shape and provide better penetration.

When you hear about a gangster being shot 5 times and surviving that was cheap plinking ammo.

I would bet that today’s police are actually less accurate. The guns might be faster and hold more bullets but police don’t practice enough. I remember coming across some old California Highway Patrol video where they showed how they were trained to shoot from the hip if needed. The video in post #2 shows sloppy training. Look at how they are bunched up and his hand isn’t near his gun. The cop behind him is firing as his buddy is trying to escape. That was hard to watch.

This is stunningly bad. The Twin Towers won praise and awards for engineering and design. Only one who has never looked at the sequence by which they were demolished could possibly take what you are suggesting serious. They were blown apart in every direction from the top down. The buildings were converted into millions of cubic yards of very fine dust. When it was over, there was (virtually) nothing there. Do you seriously suggest that this is the result of shoddy workmanship? It’s embarrassing.

You are being silly, Bill. An adequate theory has to explain the available (authentic) evidence. As in the case of JFK, where they “patched” a blow out to the back of his skull, edited the home movies to take out the limo stop and impact of multiple shots, and staged the backyard photographs, the fabricated the 9/11 crash sites, invented passenger lists and (even) fake phone calls. You are allowing yourself to be played. No serious person should adopt your attitude, once they have reviewed the evidence. Take a look and tell me what you think I have wrong. This is a distillation of collaborative research by many experts across multiple disciplines. What do we have wrong and how do you know?

Every act of anti-system far-right violence in my lifetime has always led to:

‘Structural racism’: UN urges reforms in Brazil after deadly beating of black man

Such a compact of states is interesting. You should add a contact facility to the website. My first suggestion would be to solicit and publish comments from an established Constitutional attorney whose opinions you trust.

A fairly reasonable piece, ironic that it should come from a man who helped to undermine the 9/11 truth movement.

Jim Fetzer did not derail the 911 Truth Movement. That movement was hijacked, to misdirect and prevent getting to the truth; which would have meant prosecutions.

Underperformance of “minority” quota hires must be covered up, by virtue of anti-racist gag orders in force.

I would venture that quota hiring of physically weak women and intellectually and psychologically weak Somali minority police officers would decrease qualifications of police.
Addidionally, promotion and hiring of those faithful to political correctness excludes all the old high testosterone cowboy types.

Brazil says hi.

The WHO declared a global health emergency long before a pandemic. Why? Because of pandemic bonds, that’s why, a topic that the Western fakestream media lying presstitute vermin have TOTALLY suppressed and Memory Holed.

1. Well obviously, Dubai has enormous oil reserves and a tiny native population. Being a giant mall that depends on near-slave labour, and being famous for hosting luxury brands and expensive prostitutes is hardly something to be proud of.

2. I don’t subscribe to anything so fixed as that, and your ‘gun-wielding incels comment’ is a bit much, that sort of thing seems far, far more common amongst European countries, frankly. I also didn’t understand the implication regarding Indonesia in your last sentence.

3. Pauline Hanson (an anti-immigration politician whose popularity peaked in the early 2000s) was always vilified on national media. And the obvious answer to the latter question is just that first-generation immigrants rarely rise to high-positions in their new country, that’s for their children.

4. That’s a huge tangent, but to be brief Islam was a religion that was founded by a violent tribal warlord, and which spread almost entirely via violence throughout it’s history, the only notable exception (and it is in fairness, a huge one) I can think of being Indonesia.

5. I don’t know much about the Philippines or Indonesia (I suspect you don’t either), but I strongly, strongly doubt that those countries are being kept in poverty by malicious “syndicates of Chinese merchants”.. both are totally artificial countries with hundreds of ethnic groups, of course they have issues. But I avoid arguing about topics I know nothing about, but your statement seems extremely ignorant to me.
Australia is in a very precarious position in relation to China though, which is almost entirely it’s own fault, it has the least-diversified and most resource-dependent economy of any first-world country. I can’t even think of a single internationally known Australian company not related to mining.

6. ‘Irish Catholics’… lol. But being grateful that your government is so totally infiltrated by one people representing one foreign interest, that it’s near-impossible for another alien group to do the same seems a rather sad state of affairs to me.

7. East-Asians in Australia tend to be quite affluent, so they rarely live in the same suburbs, both tending to live on the opposite sides of the major cities and rarely interact. Anyway, Australia has had a few local terrorist attacks and riots (like practically any non-Islamic country where Muslims live..) but the problem is relatively minor here, since the Muslim population isn’t large and Anglophone countries are very easy to assimilate into. It is absolutely not comparable in any way to Europe, which is undergoing a slow-motion demographic catastrophe.
But immigrant doomsayers then take the same rhetoric to Australia or the US, whose situations are so completely different that most of their arguments don’t apply at all… it would simply be much more honest if they admitted they want to preserve the racial character of their country, which is a perfectly fine argument, and not resort to so much nonsense.

Just another attempt by blacks and their woke allies to make it seem as if blacks had any role in creating what was once a great city.

They’ll do the same thing to every great northern city that they have ruined.

I have seen folks suggest what had been there was a cruise missile, a large one with characteristics similar enough with a small plane (I recall listening to initial radio reports that the first plane was a small one) —do you think what you saw was quite large or medium-sized, or how do you describe what you saw?

Or, maybe better, how do you describe what it sounded like?

Russia easily surpassed France in literature.

It’s surreal and bizarre to say that Russia could be somehow above France in literature – it’s not just that the greatest novelists of the 19th century are French (Flaubert, Huysmans, Victor Hugo, Balzac, Stendhal, Zola, Dumas, et al), but also direction of inspiration, writing technique, and trends – which was from France to Russia.

I would say the standard of French novelists are the highest of any nationality I have tried to read, and obviously France was the dominant country in 19th century literature even above England.

“top ten list� of books of the 19th century.

Because these are recent American lists, that reflects the taste of current American college students.

I think normal Americans don’t read French literature much, because they are told by critics that they have to read the books in the French original language, and this raises the barrier to entry to small circles of sophisticated French reading people. Educated people were expected to know French even in America (which was partly result of the relative prestige and high quality of French literature).

On the other hand, ordinary Americans are happy to read Russian literature in English translations, without feeling pressure that they have to read in the Russian language (as unlike French language which was expected to be common knowledge for educated people everywhere).

There’s an strange influence of the Cold War with American evaluation, so their confrontation with the Soviet Union, has forced them more to compare themselves to Russian culture, which like America was also a junior culture, lower than the European one.

To compare American and French culture, would be too much of embarrassment for American culture.

But Russian and American culture have been more parallel levels, as both are late arriving students of Europe, and Russia’s cultural flowering has preceded America by some decades.

–

There is a secret similarly of Russia and America, in this sense of insecurity to Europe, and a lot of the second half of 20th century Russian/American cultural contests are in the sphere of trying to emulate European culture, with Russia as the better student than America.

Hence, the American cult around Van Cliburn, and the highest honour for 20th century American culture, was when Van Cliburn won the International Tchaikovsky Competition in 1958.

This is when American culture felt like they had finally succeeded in the world, and today American classical musical culture and pedagogy remember it as their ultimate moment of glory: one of their “native guys� from Texas has been recognized Russia, the better and even more high-achieving, because insecure, strict and hardcore student of European culture.

I saw Tucker Carlson once around 2007 or
2008 at Reagan National Airport in D.C. I guess I had known of him since his McLaughlin Group or CNN days. Anyway, he was with his sons near a U.S. Airways kiosk with his suitcase open, moving stuff around, obviously to get under 50 lbs. As he’s frantically trying to repack his bags his sons are horsing around and slap boxing. Tucker’s telling them to knock it off as he’s repacking bags and they just ignore him and slap box each other over him. Funny scene.

Are you joking? They are far beyond Evil enough to commit such a crime, and thoroughly enjoy their God-like power to do so.

No. Unlike WTC-7, the Twin Towers cannot have been demolished by classic controlled demolitions.

CONSIDER THE DIFFERENCES:

WTC-7: All the floors come down at the same time in roughly free fall into its footprint, and there is a debris pile (characteristic of controlled demolitions) equal to about 12% of the original 47 floors = 5.5.

WTC-1 & 2: All the floors remain stationary until they are “blown to Kingdom Come” (as Morgan has put it), where both buildings are destroyed (externally viewed) from the top down using some massive source of energy and, when its, done, there’s nothing in their footprints (much less 12% of 110 floors = 13.5).

GIVE THIS MORE THOUGHT.

5.5 floors of debris (WTC-7 to the left); 0.0 floors of debris (WTC-1 to the right).

A smaller amount of labor in northern cities would have necessitated higher wages for natives, and probably would have increased fertility

It wouldn’t have compensated for the immigration. An America of only Protestant British, Germans and Dutch would have had, perhaps, Britain’s (white) population. This would not have been enough to create the industrial juggernaut that America became. Moreover, the black population would have been the same you would have a country that was 70 million Anglos/Anglo-ized Germans and 44 million blacks. And that’s without immigration from Latin America. But no pizza restaurants, mafia, and corrupt Irish cops.

The U.S. being more like Denmark is hardly the worst outcome one can imagine.

It wouldn’t be because Ellis Island didn’t bring in the slaves. Rather, US would be like Brazil except more segregated and with Anglos rather than Latins in charge. A weird alternative England with some significant South African characteristics.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that such ideas are most popular in places settled by Puritans, in institutions founded by Puritans, etc..

Classic Puritanism has been dead since the latter half of the 18th century, and its New England theology mutation died in the 1880s.

Wasn’t the Temperance movement a Puritan thing?

There are very many extremely sinister developments.

The villainous media lie-campaigns, the totalitarian suppression of ANY contrary opinions, the absolute refusal to abjure patent ‘rights’ and mega-profits, the villainous disinformation campaigns to denigrate the Russian and Chinese vaccines etc, etc. Just the standard moral insanity and Evil of the West, but to what purpose? The mRNA vaccines must hold the answer.

Every year watching “It’s a Wonderful Life,” I’m sort of taken aback when Bert the Cop in Pottersville takes several shots at a fleeing George Bailey from long distance on a busy street for the crime of, at most, accosting a woman in public.

Thank you, Jim.

I salute you.

Something else worth considering …

Whether we agree with it or not, international law is the standard to which the vast majority of nations adhere in order to resolve issues of territorial integrity. Now either we adhere to the rule of law to accomplish this with civility or conflict becomes uncivil. The only alternative is for contending parties to negotiate directly with each other — another potentially civil means of resolving such issues.

So any talk of “ancient Jewish connection to the land” means nothing with respect to Israel’s legal right to possess any part of Palestine. It’s entirely irrelevant to the matter of Israel’s occupation.

It is implied in my statement that the other side is bona fide.

In your first example, you are either a troll or an idiot. By definition, a troll doesn’t act in good faith. As for idiots, they may actually be genuine but the first rule in dealing with them is to not descend to their level. Therefore, a side acting in good faith will remain unresponsive to your solicitation.

In your second example, you are a group of trolls setting up a fake polemics. On top of having no authentic side, fake polemics have a built-in glitch (or is it a feature), it is very hard to not notice their futility. That’s two reasons to simply ignore you.

If you actually parse the language in that article, it does not say what you say, it just leaves it to you to infer it. Once you become attuned to this kind of innuendo you’ll see it constantly. Last year we were hearing about a rise in Kawasaki syndrome in children. Bogus. The corporate mass media at work.

Dr. Harvey Risch: 60% of New Covid Patients Have Been Vaccinated

Both these sources are anecdotal, though I trust Risch more than MSN-com. More definitive info is needed.

Even being hit by one bullet is enough to incapacitate almost anybody.

The force alone would knock them off their feet and the injuries and shock caused by shattered bones and arteries would immediately render them incapable of fighting back.

I suppose there might be a few cases in which a dying person raises their pistol and fires off an accurate shot with their dying breath, but probably not many.

So taking multiple bullets in the torso is really certain death. With one bullet and immediate removal to an emergency room there is some possibility of survival.

Maybe the cops also formed their impression of the amount of damage done by a bullet from The Lone Ranger. Even with a gunfight every week, I don’t think one of them was ever hit, and if they were it was a flesh wound in the shoulder that just needed a Band-Aid.

I know the cops do have tasers and are encouraged to use them instead of shooting, but in certain cases it’s not possible to get close enough.

Perhaps they could be trained to shoot for the hip when the person does not have a gun. Most likely they will still be crippled for life, which might be enough.

Copper plated lead bullets from an AR-15 easily punch holes in 1/8″ steel plates. Yet consider how soft lead is. I have no difficulty believing an airplane at 500 mph can punch through the side of a steel frame building. It’s a question of a lot of energy delivered to a small spot in a short period of time.
In my opinion Mr Fetzer is a disinformation agent trying to rebuild his credibility. He lost it all previously because of the nuke nonsense. But you get a lot of information from people like him. His bosses have to give him something to work with. So he’s on my read list.
Some free advice, Jim. Stop trying to explain the nuke business. You’re just digging a deeper hole for yourself.

“We didn’t need the University of Alaska study, or any other studies (none available at that time) to figure things out.” – You can’t be taken serious just as I thought when you started mumbling about the chaos theory. You are a buffoon.

Yeah, the liftoff in this scene looks somewhat plausible all right. It’s not the same video I was referring to however … but the one I recall seeing is no longer available on Youtube due to “violation of policy” censorships.

But even this one … doesn’t correctly display the acceleration. If you look at shuttle launches, you’ll see that the exhaust from the engine blows out vociferously whilst the payload is standing nearly still. This goes on for a second or two as the load gradually starts to rise and “speed up” more and more.

And that’s because acceleration is exponential. The speed doubles every second.

In the Apollo 17 LEM launch seen in this video, the module leaves immediately and fast enough that we don’t even get to see the background through the exhaust “plume”. Even IF the flame was perfectly clear, the introduction of a foreign substance into the vacuum of space would create refraction of light bending. This is unavoidable. Every substance has its own unique refractive index and this changes with temperature as well. What we SHOULD have seen in this video is a shimmering of the background as it appears through the stream of hot gas being blown out by the LEM engine.

Then there’s the “jerking” of the object, up and down on the left side near the end of the video. What’s going on to cause that? Can you explain it?

And finally, if you compare this video with the one for Apollo 16 … why is there a difference in space “light”? A-16 looks as though it were shot on a very misty morning or during a forest fire on the moon! Or MAYBE … it’s accidentally showing the EXHAUST of the module as it’s leaving?!?

You see the discrepancy there? These two ascents should have looked pretty much the same … but they CHANGED something because they realized that they didn’t get it right the first time.

In a world where Holobusine$$ justifies budgets, grants, donations and buyoffs to place puppet presidents and congressmen and design policy, none of these open conspiracies should be any surprise. With 9/11 and the plandemic, the Ziocorporate terrorists have ensured they’re gonna keep consolidating their “world order” from the top of the pyramid, with the taxcattle assuming all the costs of their profiteering power games in blood and treasure.

Say what they will when they are out of office, but when they take that oath of loyalty to the constitution it means that they are pledged to support all of those structures and safeguards that that foundational document has established.

There is no security within guarantees provided in long-since violated documents –
which has been shown time and again, historically.

The Constitution had/has no enforcement provision against its member states, notably.

Its Arch-Federalist creators were forced to enacted it as a voluntary compact, due to Madisons’ recognition that his Yankee financier partners would turn on him once they had what they wanted from him – and they did. The deliberate denial of any codified enforcement provision in the Constitution, that Madison presided over and documents in his notes, did not stop the later violent conquest of his people and destruction of their society, minus any legal basis.

The Constitution is also in no way meaningfully connected to the Bill of Rights, which was vehemently opposed by virtually all of the Arch-Federalists who enacted the Constitution.

The same Arch-Federalists who tossed out all term limits, ensuring the emergence of lifetime officeholders, who effectively own their seat of office – which is the central enabling feature of all the ills that you correctly note above.

The only affirmative protection that any people potentially have come not from long violated documents, but from the ability to peaceably and in an organized fashion ‘walk away’ when a society splits apart into incompatible peoples.

If competing populations, harbored under the same failed system, think that they can demand endless concessions from other factions, without any ability to refuse or split away as a consequence, you will end up in the current scenario of endless demands.

I have no idea so why ask me?

Cops nowadays have to shoot with higher efficiency, i.e. kill more with less. That is because ever-increasing amounts of tax dollars, nominally appropriated for police services, get diverted to PERS.

You said “outside influences.” What does China fear?

Bartender:
China is the last sovereign country in the world. Authoritarian but willing — unlike U.N-governed countries — to give its people the freedom to do what they want.

JC Denton:
As long as they don’t break the law.

Bartender:
Listen to me. This is real freedom, freedom to own property, make a profit, make your life. The West, so afraid of strong government, now has no government. Only financial power.

JC Denton:
Our governments have limited power by design.

Bartender:
Rhetoric… and you believe it! Don’t you know where those slogans come from?

JC Denton:
I give up.

Bartender:
Well-paid researchers –how do you say it? — “think tanks”, funded by big businesses. What is that? A “think tank”?

JC Denton:
Hardly as sinister as a dictator, like China’s Premier

Bartender:
It’s privately-funded propaganda. The Trilateral Commission in the United States, for instance.

JC Denton:
The separation of powers acknowledges the petty ambitions of individuals: that’s its strength.

Bartender:
A system organized around the weakest qualities of individuals will produce these same qualities in its leaders.

JC Denton:
Perhaps certain qualities are an inseparable part of human nature.

Bartender:
The mark of the educated man is the suppression of these qualities in favor of better ones. The same is true of civilization.

JC Denton:
I’ll have a drink.

It smells like Deus Ex spirit….

I hope he didn’t forget to turn on his anti-virus. Wouldn’t want him to download the corona virus by accident.

It is not “denied”, you are simply cowards and cuckolds who do not react to hostile activity. Who allows to be taken over in their own country without doing anything? Learn from Afghanistan, a bunch of sandal wearers kicked out combined NATO and the US from their own country.

They have will, and you don’t, because you are psychologically paralysed, and you have been since 1945, just like those insects paralysed by spiders and then waiting to be eaten.

And you are being slowly eaten right now.

Starting in the 1980s, conservatives in Congress have succeeded in getting legislation passed that forced public education institutions to allow military recruiters.

One of the few levers of power than the US Right has to get cultural autonomy is a refusal to enlist by the rural conservative whites that disproportionately enlist in combat arms. For now this isn’t much supported by low-level conservative officials, but the law prevents us from simply banning recruiters in the institutions we do control.

In a society increasingly driven by a spoils system, “veteran” is largely the only A/A category that a white male can obtain.

No Wars for GayPride

I think in the long run, majority of whites in the us will be wiped through violence, low birt rates, race mixing and general zombification.

White liberals are a different species nowadays.

I think in the end, a small nucleus of white righters will survive. About 20-40 million. They’ll teeter on the edge of annihilation due to the woke regime in DC and Chinese encroachment.

However, I expect a number of hardened survivors to coalesce and carve out a state in the north the Midwest, rocky mountains and the Canadian border.

A new nation will rise from there

And Americans tend to forget that white people were enslaved for centuries by Muslims, mostly Turks in the Mediterranean. Famous white men who were enslaved until they escaped include the writer Cervantes and the future Jamestown colonist John Smith. Muslims also enslaved Blacks for centuries. They also enslaved white women for centuries for their harems — the so-called White Slave Trade. What are now South Russia, Ukraine and Georgia were very hard hit by this trade. It explains why so many “Turks” in Turkey appear to be white.

That was the view post Tito in Yugloslavia. But that nation did not long survive its dictator.

Black people clearly HATE HATE HATE most Whites. All blacks? No. But most. Its pretty clear from actions and deeds.

Whites are themselves divided into an elite and palace guards and functionaries who hate the dirt people, and the dirt people who hate them back.

Latinos see themselves as variously Greater Cuba, Greater Mexico, Greater Honduras, …

Muslims want an Islamic State.

A powerful dictator can keep that in check, generally by suppressing one group and favoring another. Usually a minority: Saddam’s Tikrit clan, the Assad’s Alawis. Here it is blacks.

A Dem Congressmen openly talks about nuking Nebraska. So I’d say the odds of a violent falling out are pretty much guaranteed.

The American Ruling Class is deliberately attacking the country’s core demographic group at just the same time that it is picking fights with major powers like Russia, China

If America is picking a fight with Russia it cannot see China as a near peer competitor at all. China is piling up relative economic power, and Russia is not. So why treat Russia as the danger? Russia cannot be isolated from China by Western punitive measures, quite the opposite. I think the people really running America see China as a source of profit, and that is why the geopolitical strategists are concentrating on Russia as an enemy to be sanctioned. China is winning every hand, and Biden is facilitating that; he is a corporate front man.

This “pancaking collapse” nonsense has been debunked a million times.

It is actually very similar to the preposterous NIST official version, for which NIST has lost all credibility because they weren’t able to provide the modelisation data, by which they allegedly proved the global collapse, for cross-examination and peer review.

So for the umpteenth time: a sky-scrapper civil structure is firmly anchored in the bedrock and calculated so that it can, at any given point, support all the weight above the considered point. The lower part cannot collapse under the weight of the upper part because it was designed to support it.

9 minutes, that’s all I need to know.
All you white suckers whine as much as you want.
9 minutes, that’s all I need to know.
P.S. I am a white man

Not only has police training given us cops who can shoot well, but I imagine their training gives us cops who actually shoot less often. IA and stuff. What I have noticed is that there are more video cameras than there used to be.

The Japanese have a problem with youth culture. Young people are all obsessed with pop music, which is dominated by boy bands that were literally created by a gay music tycoon and that reflect gay ephebophile aesthetics. Young people also like “cool” hobbies (eg, soccer) rather than traditional culture. They love shopping, and they are obsessed with their smartphones. Moreover, most are largely ignorant of history and culture, on a level you would be surprised at. When you talk to young people, it’s difficult to find points of connection because they know nothing beyond the pop culture displayed to them on their phones.

In short, Japan is facing an upcoming generation that is deeply unserious and unprepared to defend itself against threats coming either externally or internally.

It’s all a game, these people know there is no threat and we can know this because they’re not acting like there is a threat. They’re acting like people who like witch hunts and people who get a thrill out of the idea of a vast threat of white racism and how they would like to beat it down.

Sure. But they’re not just doing it for the thrill. If they constantly promote a narrative that “proves” that evil White supreemist not-sees are hiding behind every bush [and podium], secretly conspiring to shoah anyone who’s not Pure 100% Bavarian Phenotype… that sounds like a pretty serious threat to any vibrantly diverse, tolerant society in the current year, doesn’t it? And a serious threat “justifies” serious measures taken in response to that “threat”…

Afghanistan The Model. Inshallah!

One of the Tribe, David Cole, has written frequently in Takimag about the this unwisdom. His columns from the previous year about Golems makes for reading that is at once informative, entertaining, and despairing–and not just for The Chosen, who could benefit from his warnings about this Dangerous Liaison or Valse Macabre with their Vibrant Golems.

Cucker Tarlson encourages public ridicule of facediaperist covidiots, something I’ve done since March 2020. Glad to see you’ve joined my team, Sailer.
