Shiva was born in Bombay, India and can not be President, although some would argue that did not stop Obama.

I ignore all articles that do nothing more than argue with somebody else. Want to share your ideas? State them plainly. I can read arguements all day long in the comments section if I want.

Seems to me the Democrats are the Oligarch party. Think George Soros. Trump is now in thick with the old PayPal mafia. Thiel and Musk strike me as more of the corporate types. However is it really a choice between corporate and oligarch power? Seems like it is a choice between AI/Israel first evil and Soros’ infatuation with Popper’s Messianic like world reformation evil.

There is so much oil that the US has to spend large amounts of money ‘fracking’ and Canada uses large quantities of natural gas and water to ‘mine’ the tar sands?

The only alternative “pro-capitalist” choice between Frick and Frack would be someone like Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai who is on the ballot in 13 states and an authorized write in candidate in 10 other states including California (estimated). Shiva’s YouTube channel with 500,000 followers was shadow banned and dropped to 5,000. Shiva was denied the opportunity to participate in public debates. So the Establishment is afraid of Shiva. But he offers an alternative that is not well known. FYI

“The Great Replacement Theory” is not an absurdity, it’s a fact. Although I think it would be better termed “The Great Impoverishment,” because it’s goal is to force the population up at an excessively rapid pace, and thereby drive wages and living standards for the many down, and rents and profits for the few up.

Not that long ago the Ivory Coast was a fairly prosperous country. That meant that wages were relatively high – we can’t have that! So the rulers imported massive numbers of refugees from neighboring poorer countries to reduce their labor costs. By the time that this massive surge of immigration had cause the population to be double what it would have been otherwise, the resulting poverty tore the country apart in a bloody civil war. Last I checked, the immigrant faction had won. So the native Ivorians lost their prosperity, their peace, and finally, their country. That’s not an absurdity.

In every case where the elites have forced the population up the working class loses out. Every. Case. China under Mao. Mexico. Brazil. Sudan. Syria. Afghanistan. Japan before WWII. Iran and the Ayatollah. Turkey. Sweden. Britain. South Africa. And I’m just getting warmed up.

This whole idea of oligarchy vs. corporatism is basically silly. It’s really about supply and demand. Will wages be low, or high?

I’m voting for Trump because, whatever his other flaws, when he was president he did not actively aid and abet a foreign invasion of this country. And that’s they the establishment hates him.

more neo-Marxist claptrap from CH.

the choice in the proximate Zionist Uniparty fake-election is between Zionist-stooge A (Trumpstein) and Zionist stooge B (Kamalowitz). And the only real difference is in # of visits to Zio-blackmailer Epstein’s Pedo-Island:

Trumpstein: 7

Kamalowitz: 0…..but only because she was too busy blowing Willy Brown.

Wow… it’s easy for me to see why I used to be a huge fan of Chris Hedges. It’s amazing how I totally agree with him about the evil that our Western/Global leaders have become. However, being an engineer with over 40 years in industry, I am repelled by Hedges’ extreme (irrational?) anti-capitalism which fails to recognize that there might be a ‘good’ capitalism (i.e. ‘real’, ‘actual’ capitalism?… which was successfully demonstated before ‘deregulation’)… where MANY small corporations competed under anti-trust controls, white-collar crime enforcement (see Dr. Bill Black), maintain low barriers to market entry, destroyed bad/corrupt/evil companies/managements, where good resources flowed from bad capital to good capital/management/productivity, where Michael Hudson’s mixed economy public sector provided zero-profit services(or even subsidies to help private real-capital compete against not-real-capital).

Here is why I have lost respect for Chris Hedges… notice the extreme black vs. white…

“Warlord capitalists” = “Trump, Boris Johnson, Giorgia Meloni, Narendra Modi, Victor Orban and Marine Le Pen” + Elon Musk

“Housebroken capitalists” = “Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron”

Though Chris Hedges does say… “But “housebroken capitalismâ€� is no less destructive.”… he has made very clear in his articles that he MUCH prefers Housebroken capitalists over Warlord capitalists (i.e. ‘globalists’ over ‘nationalists’… i.e. Hedges believes nationalists are psycho totalitarians… while I would argue that the globalists are the psycho totalitarians). You see this in this article by the way Hedges supports HUGE (Trump pun intended) global migration and insinuates that Housebroken capitalism is a natural and ‘inevitable’ result of one-world globalization.

Hedges’ anti-capitalism ends his article…

“Pick your poison. Destruction by corporate power or destruction by oligarchy. The end result is the same. That is what the two ruling parties offer in November. Nothing else.”

I reject this extreme, nihilistic anti-capitalism (pro-global totalitarianism?). I believe that real capitalism (i.e. breakup the evil mega corporations… restore actual competition… destroy/replace the totally incompetent/corrupt 5% managerial class) is possible and is clearly a manageable, civilized alternative future for humanity.

I also think that if Hedges was honest, he would draw clear distinction between the 5% managerial class versus the 95% working class. Yes, the 95% are being reduced to slavery (as Hedges so eloquently points out) but Hedges totally fails to point out that the 5% managerial class have become filthy rich and powerful in the past 40 years. For me the enemy is the 5%… take them out and the mega-corporations and oligarchs would come crashing down.

BTW… about the immigrants… am I wrong???…

It was more than two decades ago the establishment admitted there were “11 million” illegal immigrants”. I agree with pundits that when Biden entered the white house there were at least 30 million illegals in the U.S. That means that four years ago 1 in 10 people in the U.S. were illegal. The consensus seems to be that 10 million illegals entered the U.S. in the past four years. So, in another 8 years, maintaining the current immigration rate (which Chris Hedges seems to love), we will have added an additional 30 million illegals. So…

In 8 years of Kamala Harris, the U.S. will be comprised of 300 million legals and 60 million illegals… i.e. one in five people in the U.S. will be foreign illegals.

Am I wrong? Is that a good thing??? Chris please expain how that’s a good thing?

This last erection by ZOG is the end of the road of the jew century. Capitalism is just parasite exploitation by the bankster khazar mafia. The end of the Rothschild central bank scheme to steal the world with monopoly money. Donnie is the last hope of ZOG, and the khazar mafia is determined to stop him from saving them. So much stupid from the usual suspects. Kamala is the whore of Babylon writ large. She represents the whole decrepit sexual deviancy of the ruinous class of crass boors who have infested the cities with their ghetto culture. The love of cheap sex and materialism has gone soft. It can’t screw the world anymore. ZOG has enemies everywhere. ZOG Palestine has started a war with Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, Iran and Islam in general. ZOG Europe has Russia, China, North Korea and others as resistance fighters against them. The fake jew has painted itself into a dead end. They only have themselves to blame for their predicament. Their hubris and obnoxious supremacist behavior is making more enemies every day. World War III has begun. Civil War II in America is about to go hot. The khazar mafia has no friends anymore.

TL;DR: Occurences of “Jew”: 0. Skip.

“Meanwhile, yet more nonsense in your comment # 19 and your asinine claims that oil production is facing a natural decline.”
So shill.
‘According to the supermajor, global oil production is facing a natural decline at a rate of some 15% annually over the next 25 years. For context, the IEA sees the rate of natural decline at 8% annually. Exxon points out, however, that the faster decline rate is a result of the shift towards shale and other unconventional oil production, where depletion happens faster than it does in conventional formations.
“To put it in concrete terms: With no new investment, global oil supplies would fall by more than 15 million barrels per day in the first year alone.” This is a scary prospect because “At that rate, by 2030, oil supplies would fall from 100 million barrels per day to less than 30 million – that’s 70 million barrels short of what’s needed to meet demand every day.” ‘?

Look, look, over here, at the ‘wicked’ Russians/Chinese, immigrants or the ‘ZOG’.
Don’t look over there at the plutocrats and the M.I.C., there’s nothing to see?

Companies like Exxon and organizations like OPEC have an incentive to promote the narrative that oil is depleting, since doing helps push up prices, by generating FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt).

The historical trend over the last three decades is quite clear though – see the graph in the link below:

Crude oil production

https://yearbook.enerdata.net/crude-oil/world-production-statistics.html

Bear in mind that even in the worst case scenario, there are CTL (coal to liquid) and GTL (gas to liquid) technologies to cover any possible oil shortfall.

Last, but not least, we never know what new investments will discover. As a professor of mine put it three decades ago:

‘We are not running out of oil. We are running into oil.’

Indeed, we are finding oil deposits in all sorts of places – from off the coast of Namibia to western Poland. So, there’s no need to be pessimistic on the energy front.

[Our dysfunctional financial system is another story though. My friend Oliver Heydorn provides a valuable insight here:

https://www.socred.org/s-c-action/social-credit-views/douglas-social-credit-and-the-categories-of-constraint ]

Yes, ignorance on steroids. That statement of yours proved it.

Let’s get something straight. ZOG conjured up the Anthropogenic Global Warming hoax, as a means of impoverishing the working class – by making them pay far higher energy prices than they otherwise would in an unfettered Free Market.

Simultaneously ZOG, through its subsidiary entities (like Blackrock, Vanguard, State Street etc), are majority and/or controlling shareholders in the Defence contractors.
In other words ZOG is the MISSS (Military Industrial Security Surveillance State).
They’re also the major shareholders of Exxon/Mobil, Chevron and the rest.

But you’re TOO STUPID to work out that you’ve been played.
You don’t even know that you are a USEFUL IDIOT working to advance ZOG’s agenda.

You and Greta Thunberg – two of a kind.

Meanwhile, yet more nonsense in your comment # 19 and your asinine claims that oil production is facing a natural decline.
The same disinfo peddlers that are telling you that were saying the world had reached ‘Peak Oil’ about 15-16 years ago.

ACTUAL OUTCOME: Oil production is significantly higher than when we were supposedly at ‘Peak Oil’.

Jimmy, you are a gullible little man. You lap up everything Neil De Grasse Tyson tells you like it’s the gospel truth.
Grow up and try to be more mature. Your ‘betters’ in Big Gubmint are not looking out for your welfare and that of your loved ones.

The ZOG owned western MSM lies about everything. Try to get your info from sources with integrity.

Ignorance?
This from a shill for the plutocrats, the MIC and the FF industry!

Capitalism by itself is not the problem, global robber-baron extortionomics is the problem. Keep it real for the little guy earning minimum wage. And for elderly and disabled and low income. Start some charities and some trade schools and adult night schools, since K12 and higher ed systems are not getting the job done. Enough leftist ‘isms’, go find the people hardest hit, and work on helping them. People can spout off all day up at the podium and help no one and affect nothing. Give off from that, and interview billionaires and poor people alike and thus compile and develop a better knowledge base and use that as a tool to help with. More charities, jobs programs, education resources, public information resources, and above all, honest goodwill and assistance where/when needed so people get some guidance and a little help toward living a better life. Life is NOT fair and socialism is ruinous, so, find a better way.

LOL. Ignorance is bliss!

I appreciate your admission that you’ve decided to opt for a blissful existence, rather than face reality and have to put in the hard yards by learning the actual science.

Of course that didn’t surprise me. Most Climate Loons like yourself are too lazy to look into anything in depth. You and your ilk prefer to be spoon fed pleasantries from your ‘betters’ in Big Gubmint.

To each his own. You’re entitled to remain ignorant if you wish.

In the article you linked to, there’s the following claim:

‘the fossil fuels which still account for 85 percent of the energy (Nuclear and Hydroelectric account for most of the rest) which powers everything we do are a precious and finite resource.’

This assumes that the biotic theory of hydrocarbon formation is correct. I’d argue that the abiotic theory is much closer to the truth.

Earth Is An Oil-Producing Machine — We’re Not Running Out

https://www.investors.com/politics/commentary/we-are-not-running-out-of-oil-earth-produces-crude/

I was introduced to this theory by Thomas Gold’s book, ‘The Deep Hot Biosphere’ over two decades ago – and since then, far from running out of hydrocarbons, we’ve been producing more and more – which strikes me as confirmation of Gold’s thesis.

(That said, I personally prefer hydroelectric and tidal power, since their EROI (Energy Returns on Investment) surpasses even that of hydrocarbons.)

Look, look, over here, at the ‘wicked’ Russians/Chinese, immigrants or the ‘ZOG’.
Don’t look over there at the plutocrats and the M.I.C., there’s nothing to see?

LOL. Ignorance is bliss!

Well Jimmy, let’s make sure there’s not a 16th mass extinction.

Because if we follow the ludicrous suggestions of the Climate Loons (and their insane plans to reduce CO2 as low* as possible), then humanity will be the next mass extinction.

(*Below about 150 ppm of CO2, every living thing dies).

15 mass extinctions

Jimmy Chuck writes:

the implications ….. of the carbon dioxide is really dangerous if you heat your ….. planet sufficiently to cause your Arctic to melt

The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is a NEGLIGIBLE DETERMINANT in the average Earth temperature. We KNOW this for certain.

Right now CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere are around 400 ppm. But in the past, when CO2 was between 2000 and 3000 ppm, the planet went into an Ice Age !!
That’s not a one-off anomaly either. There are countless other time periods where CO2 was high and yet the planet was colder, or lower than normal CO2 where the planet was warmer than the average.

Secondly, the Climate Alarmists know nothing about the concept of Cause and Effect.
The climate alarmism is based on the premise that CO2 rises FIRST and the effect of that is a rising temperature.

BUT, Ice Core samples demonstrate, WITHOUT EXCEPTION, that throughout Earth’s entire history, the temperature rises first and THEN CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere rise.
ie: the OPPOSITE of what the rabid Green extremists are telling us.
And that is to be expected.

The vast bulk of the CO2 in the world is dissolved in the oceans.
And, in accordance with the scientific phenomenon of ‘Outgassing’, when a gas is dissolved in a liquid, heating that liquid will cause some of the gas to be released into the atmosphere.

The more the temp rises, the more of that dissolved gas is released.

And, as the Earth cools (as it does from time to time ALL ON ITS OWN – ie: without the input of mankind), the reverse is true.
In that the oceans will ABSORB CO2 from the atmosphere.

So then, what causes the Earth temp to rise, you might ask?
(This is a question which the Climate hoaxers NEVER address – because to do so would debunk their infantile scam).
There are a variety of factors, but here are three of the major ones:

1) Variation in Solar activity
2) Natural variability of the tilt of the Earth’s access
3) Natural variability of the elliptical path of the Earth around the Sun.

Summary: Jimmy, it appears you are clueless in relation to true Climate science and that, like that autistic teenager Greta, you’ve been sucked in by easily disprovable Climate warming claptrap.

Try to be more discerning in future. Do your own research and don’t rely on the ZOG controlled MSM and other ZOG controlled entities for your information.

To the extent that CO2 is rising incrementally, this is due to NATURAL causes over which humans have no control.
The good news is that, to the extent that CO2 has risen over the last 150 years or so, this is Greening the Planet and significantly increasing crop yields** per hectare of arable land – enabling more than enough food to feed an increasing world population.

(**Deserts are receding and large stretches of land that were once marginal are now suitable for agricultural use).

Let’s hope CO2 increases to the sweet spot of between 1200 and 1500 ppm, which will see the entire planet become a lush paradise of abundance, as it once was.

“seeing as we know that Anthropogenic Global Warming is a hoax “?

Climate has changed before?
“ . . . it is these ocean state changes that are
1:02:28 correlated with the great disasters of the past impact can cause extinction but
1:02:35 it did so in our past only wants[once] that we can tell whereas this has happened over
1:02:40 and over and over again we have fifteen evidences times of mass extinction in the past 500 million years
1:02:48 so the implications for the implications the implications of the carbon dioxide is really dangerous if you heat your
1:02:55 planet sufficiently to cause your Arctic to melt if you cause the temperature
1:03:01 gradient between your tropics and your Arctic to be reduced you risk going back

This elephant ?
No ‘BAU’?
‘Most’ ‘economic thinking’ is ‘short run’ and ‘redundant’?
‘It’ ignores the ‘supply side’?
‘Growth’ {and ‘civilisation’} depends upon ‘cheap’ F.F. – those so called ‘halcyon days’ are ‘over’. ?
“The crisis now unfolding, however, is entirely different to the 1970s in one crucial respect… The 1970s crisis was largely artificial. When all is said and done, the oil shock was nothing more than the emerging OPEC cartel asserting its newfound leverage following the peak of continental US oil production. There was no shortage of oil any more than the three-day-week had been caused by coal shortages. What they did, perhaps, give us a glimpse of was what might happen in the event that our economies depleted our fossil fuel reserves before we had found a more versatile and energy-dense alternative. . . .
And this is why the crisis we are beginning to experience will make the 1970s look like a golden age of peace and tranquility. . . . The sad reality though, is that our leaders – at least within the western empire – have bought into a vision of the future which cannot work without some new and yet-to-be-discovered high-density energy source (which rules out all of the so-called green technologies whose main purpose is to concentrate relatively weak and diffuse energy sources). . . . Even as we struggle to reimagine the 1970s in an attempt to understand the current situation, the only people on Earth today who can even begin to imagine the economic and social horrors that await western populations are the survivors of the 1980s famine in Ethiopia, the hyperinflation in 1990s Zimbabwe, or, ironically, the Russians who survived the collapse of the Soviet Union.� ?

That is hilarious, Truth Vig. Hedges is a William Sloane Coffin pseud. The real one got bullets shot through his window and got prosecuted by fed cocksuckers. This fake one interviews the guys who shredded Snowden’s dump.

As UR readers would’ve observed from the interview he had with Chris Hedges, George Monbiot is an ECONOMIC IGNORAMUS without parallel.

For anyone interested in learning some REAL economics, you won’t do better than listening to the economic adviser for Dr Ron Paul’s 2008 Presidential campaign.

The video* below features Peter Schiff in the latest Ron Paul Liberty Report:

Video Link
(*BTW, I’ve posted the same video above in the Chris Hedges thread titled ‘The Secret History of Neoliberalism (w/ George Monbiot)’, but it’s not likely to see the light of day.

You see, Hedges has already trashed my previous attempts to post comments there.
That’s the sort of COWARD Chris Hedges is – he’s just too GUTLESS to accept contrary opinions).

Contrast that to Jonathan Cook. He may not agree with what I have to say, but he’s not a tyrant that wishes to muzzle me and impose censorship.
He is a genuine advocate of Free Speech and walks the walk – not like the phony** Chris Hedges.

I congratulate you Mr Cook for being a gentleman and will look out for your UR articles in future, always seeking to contribute to the commentary in a constructive way.

(**I’ve already had an exchange with Ron Unz and recommended that he ditch Chris Hedges, because he’s bringing this great webzine into disrepute.
I mentioned that few people read the articles from Hedges and even fewer people bother to post comments there – such is the LOW QUALITY of output from Hedges).

I’ve noticed that Chris Hedges appears on The Jimmy Dore Show from time to time as well, so evidently Jimmy hasn’t caught on to what a fraud Hedges is.
You know Hedges was strongly advocating for the clot shots during the Covid Psyop and fully supported the tyranny/lockdowns from the ruling ZOG establishment.

It should also come as no surprise that Chris Hedges was, and still is, someone who was sucked in by the Anthropogenic Global Warming Hoax.
Does that really surprise anyone? I mean, just look at that ugly melon of his.
He looks like he has an advanced case of Downs Syndrome.
In a head-to-head with Greta Thunberg, Hedges clearly looks the more retarded – it’s not even close.

Monbiot is a shit plenum …. [a] candida-reeking cunt

You certainly hit it out of the park with that comment.
(That has to be a front runner for ‘best encapsulation of a clueless Socialist’ in UR this year).
My congrats to you for that.

Meanwhile, seeing as there is a Chris Hedges article also running concurrently in the UR that deals with the Monbiot interview, I tried to post the exact same post (scroll up to my comment # 2), in the Chris Hedges thread on two occasions.

Each time Hedges purged it. Obviously he’s a thin-skinned prick (like Steve Sailer) that is trying to ingratiate himself with his ZOG benefactors.
Most UR readers are already aware of this but for those that aren’t, Steve Sailer and Hedges are clearly servile minions of Malignant International Jewry.

Especially in the case of Steve Sailer, he won’t tolerate a word of dissent in relation to the Holohoax. If you even hint that one yid less than 6 million was killed during WWII, or that those pedal powered skull crushing machines were not actually used on Jews, he’ll come down on you like a ton of bricks.

Oh good. I’m glad somebody pointed that Monbiot is a shit plenum. Hedges is not helping his residual impotent-handwringing cred by taking that candida-reeking cunt seriously.

In fact, unless Hedges scooped out his eyes and skullfucked him livestream, Hedges will indelibly marked as the hopeless dupe we remember from his NYT days.

David Stockman is a Goliath of truth and integrity.

UR readers should get a hold of his book: ‘The Great Deformation – The Corruption of Capitalism in America’, for proof that the U.S has descended into being a Socialist shit-hole.

Meanwhile, this is my favourite David Stockman clip of all time. Watch the first 9:30 of this video below as Stockman tears these Fox News warmongers a new arse hole:

Video Link

“Democracy is a challenge to Capitalism? Only a Covid clot shot neurologically impaired simpleton would make such a preposterous assertion.
Capitalism goes hand in hand with freedom, with the will of the people, with Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.”

Thank you. Exactly. It gets so tiresome, year after year, decade after decade, to have to define this term properly, to defend the real meaning of capitalism, properly.

I recommend David Stockman, who is sane and rational and an excellent defender of free market economics, once known as “capitalism” and its inextricable relation to healthy democracy. The “finance capitalists”, the debt ogres, banking mafias, the shillers-of-garbage ideology-driven version of so-called capitalism is the mutant version of what was once so splendidly The American Way.

Why didn’t Hedges bring any of this up? Why didn’t he hold Monbiot’s ‘feet to the fire’ and challenge his views on Syria, Libya and Ukraine, Assange (or for that matter Covid, 9/11 etc) ?

The anti-war Left are a shamble of shit. They do not allow themselves to ask the serious questions, for fear of endangering their precious self serving, self perceived ‘virtue’. They rely upon a switcheroo of inserting concepts (‘neoliberalism’, ‘capitalism’,’corporations’) to try and assert agency, instead of simply looking for a pattern in the individuals who created and maintain these systems.

And…Israel is not an aircraft carrier for the US. Let’s all keep repeating this until fuckwits like Cook finally concede that it is a baseless concept that merely covers for their own lack of integrity.

I knew this George Monbiot bloke was a moron before, but his interview made it clear that he is an economically illiterate Marxist of biblical proportions.

He said stuff like ‘Capitalism is inextricably linked to Imperialism’, or words to that effect.
That’s pure B.S.
Imperialism is one country forcibly looting/raping/pillaging the resources of another and thus can be implemented IRRESPECTIVE of the political ideology of the aggressor.

For example, Hitler’s invasion of the Soviet Union through Operation Barbarossa in 1941, SAVED EUROPE from being completely taken over by the Bolsheviks – and this saved western Europe from Soviet IMPERIALISM.

Yes, Germany lost the war, but in so doing it had completely exhausted the Soviet Union, who had suffered such a catastrophic loss of manpower and material damage, that it was unable to fulfill Stalin’s plans of a complete takeover of the continent.

And then, we have this ridiculous statement from Monbiot:

Neoliberalism, observes Monbiot, emerged as capitalism’s response to its biggest challenge: democracy.

Democracy is a challenge to Capitalism? Only a Covid clot shot neurologically impaired simpleton would make such a preposterous assertion.
Capitalism goes hand in hand with freedom, with the will of the people, with Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Now, let me say from the outset. I’m am not an advocate of the present system in the U.S, a system where a relatively few are fabulously rich, while the majority are being further impoverished with each passing day.
It is a system which sees the number of tent cities of the homeless growing like a cancer, while those not lucky enough to secure even a tent end up sleeping under freeway overpasses or wander the streets in an opioid induced stupor.

It is obvious to all that what exists in the U.S today is a FAILED SYSTEM.

But it is equally obvious that THERE IS NO CAPITALISM OF SUBSTANCE BEING PRACTISED IN THE BIG END OF TOWN IN AMERICA.

Of course the Jewish owned MSM will be bleating constantly how ‘Capitalism is failing’, how the 2008 GFC was the fault of capitalism, when it was no such thing.
ZOG naturally have a motive for smearing Capitalism and it should be obvious to all why that is.

You see, after the present system fails, they will blame capitalism and say:
‘We need to introduce Socialism. We need to introduce a system where you will have no private possessions, you will OWN NOTHING, and you will be happy’.
A system that is run by a Politburo of hand chosen TALMUDIC MISFITS.

‘We need to introduce a system that prevents the excesses of Capitalism. We will introduce MORE government regulations and red tape, we will hire even more USELESS AND PARASITIC GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRATS to micromanage every aspect of our lives, from what car we drive (it will be an E.V – assuming we’re allowed to drive a car at all and not be corralled in 15 min cities using mass transit), what our carbon footprints will be, what we eat (no real meat – just those lab conjured gelatinous concoctions that attempts to resemble meat and/or eating insects/Soylent Green to get our protein levels up).

The fact is that the 2008 GFC was ENTIRELY THE FAULT OF BIG GUBMINT.
The fact is that the RESPONSE to the 2008 GFC was the opposite of Capitalism.

In Capitalism, your reap what you sow. If you deliver products and services that consumers want and outperform your competitors on quality/price, you will do well.
If you don’t your business will fail – and YOU DESERVE TO GO BANKRUPT because you’ve mismanaged society’s scarce resources.

Most importantly of all, in Capitalism the taxpayer is NOT ON THE HOOK TO BAIL YOU OUT if your business goes badly.
Goldman Sachs-of-Shit, and all the ZOG majority owned banks/financial institutions/insurance giants (like Maurice ‘Hank’ Greenberg’s AIG), WOULD ALL HAVE GONE BUST.

But as it was, the American taxpayer BAILED OUT THESE JEWISH MISCREANTS (who got into trouble from their reckless/speculative/illegal business practices in the first place), so we had a situation where profits were privatised and losses were SOCIALISED (as in Socialism).
That is NOT Capitalism.

So, here’s a brief overview of what Capitalism ACTUALLY is (because the Marxists and ignorant leftists continually misrepresent it on purpose):

The defining characteristics of capitalism include:

capital accumulation, competitive markets, price systems, private property, recognition of property rights, self-interest, economic freedom, meritocracy, work ethic, consumer sovereignty, economic efficiency, limited role of government, profit motive, a financial infrastructure of money and investment that makes possible credit and debt, entrepreneurship, commodification, voluntary exchange

I cannot begin to emphasis how important that last one on the list is. ie: VOLUNTARY EXCHANGE.
So, if you don’t want to buy an electric vehicle (E.V), [because it is prone to self-combust, it is crazy expensive and depreciates like a stone, because it is environmentally damaging (uses almost twice as much energy to manufacture in the first place than an ICE vehicle and incorporates the use of rare earth metals, lithium, cobalt etc, ALL of which cause untold environmental damage in their extraction], then you should not be forced to buy one.

If you don’t want your taxes going to subsidise all those bird chopping wind turbines or inefficient solar panels (all over a NON-PROBLEM, seeing as we know that Anthropogenic Global Warming is a hoax and that more CO2 in the atmosphere is GREENING THE EARTH and NOT the driver of the infinitesimal 1 deg C rise in temp the planet has seen over the last 150 years), then you should not have to.
If you don’t want your tax dollars going to that poisonous dwarf Zelensky to be used in the Ukraine proxy war or to assist the Apartheid Israeli state in its genocide in Gaza, then you should not have to do that.

And, during the Covid Psyop, small family businesses were arbitrarily shut down and deemed non essential, while ZOG owned/aligned Big Box stores stayed open.
There is nothing Voluntary about that nor is it in relation to the VAXX mandates, whereby people were coerced into taking the deadly experimental mRNA gene therapies that masqueraded as vaccines.

NONE OF THAT WAS CAPITALISM.

SUMMARY: It should be evident to all that George Monbiot is a TOOL OF THE ZOG ESTABLISHMENT after watching that interview with Chris Hedges.
In the latter part of the interview Monbiot is scathing of the Brexit movement and claimed that Brexit was all part of the Neoliberal agenda to impoverish the masses (or words to that effect).

This should tell you everything you need to know about this Marxist imbecile, seeing as the full array of ZOG sock puppets (Tony Blair, David Cameron, the entirety of the ZOG owned British MSM, then Prince Chuck etc), were all against a Brexit.

All of these despicable rodents were in favour of Britain remaining subservient to those unelected Rothschild installed members of the European Parliament in Brussels that ensured Britain would be under the thumb of the ZOG financiers and thus not be a sovereign nation anymore.

Watch this 4 min video featuring the libertarian (and advocate of unfettered Free Market Capitalism) Dominic Frisby*, and observe for yourself why ALL OF THOSE degenerates that were against Brexit were (without exception) bought-and-paid-for foot soldiers of ZOG:

(*The video start slowly but please persist, it will be well worth it – as you’ll find out to your immense satisfaction later on).

Then there’s the elephant in the room that neither Left, Right nor Centre will discuss: the debt-finance system.

The Significance of Monetary Reform: The Disaster of Debt Based Economics

Michael Hudson is comparing the EU puppets to nations like. Russia, China, some of the BRICs who are founding their own trade/financing system with each 0ther.

In the meantime the US Megalithic $$ owners “can go to Europe and blow up Nord Stream Pipeline and essentially block out the European industrial recovery and Europe will go along with it, won’t do anything at all.”

Correct. Only very recently has the German professor, Mr. Dieson admitted that it WAS The US who blew up Nordstream.

Sadly, millions of EU citizens are going to suffer the most when the US finishes Colonizing W. Europe by PRIVATIZING all health care, bringing in corporatized bohemoths like Starbucks, Big Food Chains as we have in the US; seizing all apartments, homes whereby Europeans will start paying Big Bucks to have their shelters INSURED. just like in the US.

Gold has risen about 525% over the past 20 years or so.

Regarding the Québec guy’s comment on Protestant Work Ethic:

Protestants are more honest than Catholics, in fact.

“Honesty, beliefs about honesty, and economic growth in 15 countries” by David Hugh-Jones
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S016726811630052X

But, maybe, it’s NOT due to “being Protestant” in itself… tough to prove Cause-and-Effect, surely…

Great response. It’s unbelievable that several posters here actually favor State confiscation of all inherited wealth, including schemes that would single out whites for punishment. Only a communist crackpot would support a 100 percent tax on a young adult’s inheritance.

An excellent article, thanks for writing it and to Ron Unz for hosting it.

The lowest of all troll scum apparently does not know, or, more likely, is lying through his foetid mind, that life expectancy in China, under Mao, rose from less than forty to nearly seventy, the fastest and greatest such leap in history. So jump back into your sewer, turd.

Good God, man-that’s an insult to hacks. Sowell in an Uncle Tom, nothing more.

Priceless!!!!

Have you found anything else?.. you promised post to me. I’m still waiting if you have something new for me. The enigma of Hitler intrigues me so much after reading the article of Leon Degrelle …I would like to get nearer the truth…

Nope! Here is the Chief SEPHARDIC rabbi teaching flock of “chosenites�: https://newrepublic.com/article/78490/goyim-were-born-only-serve-us-the-moral-wisdom-rabbi-ovadia-yosef

What I think is missing here is the deep rabbit hole of the Elohim / Babylonian / Talmudic / Khazar/Mongolian (Ghengis Cohen/ Kagan) influences on what is happening today. IOW I/we want to know if and or when another extra or intra “alien” species controlled or are still in control of this planet (I’m just visiting myself:-). A deep dive into PRE- biblical history should/would help clarify some of these questions.

Thank you very much! It was worth waiting for your reply, ‘…cobra’.
I got more than I expected.

I’ve always had an intuition that Hitler was not a genuine German. He was too fanatic and emotionally driven more than rational. But I don’t think he was a psychopath because he reacted with emotion and showed it.
There are studies/I have read that have found Ashkenazi genes in his relatives and articles that his grandmother would never have revealed who his father’s father was but they are blamed to be conspiracy.
I have read that his mother’s jewish doctor/was he E.Bloch?, said that H reacted strongly to his mother’s death with depression and gives no support that he was an insensitive and cold psychopath. May be more hypersensitive?/imo//they have often difficulties in social contacts and are distant, self-contained, withdrawn and without friends because other people are not in their level and they can not share their feelings with them and stay outsiders to avoid conflict or angst/anxiety.
To summarize: can we assume/specute that may be? Hitler was a Crypto-Jew and he was an ‘Aspi’ like many Jews as you have said in your comments ? I’m not alone in this hypothesis or speculation
But why did he become a ‘self-hating Jew’/as zionists call them?
His hatred of the tribe/talmudic Jews, however, imo is an undeniable fact as is the co-operation with the zionists for the state of Israel.
The reasons probably lie in the sphere of psychology.

It makes sense until you realize they’re weighted even more heavily into certain other mental disorders, such as paranoia and sociopathy.

I’d say they’re going extinct, but observably the same traits can be and are inculcated in the people who join them, which happens more rapidly than they die out. It’s easiest to just think of them as being a large-scale result of genetics tending slowly into a fatal strange-attractor per chaos theory, or in more common terms, as ruled by an evil spirit which doesn’t mind adopting more children to replace those it consumes.

They’ve had the Nobel committee for a while. Without that, you realize it’s a lot of Gauss, Dirac, Tesla, Bohr, for example in physics, and the “Jewish geniuses” are almost entirely plagiarists, reformatters, translators, and Kaballah mysticism encoders such as Einstein who have been trumpeted by the combination of award and media control.

If “Jews” have any edge in anything at all, it’s simple verbal skills. Unfortunately they have not generally used those to find or convey truth, but rather for rationalizations, sophistry, and outright lying.

Since one of the principle holdings of the wealthy is land/property, it is so easy to go around. You simply make the heirs joint tenants, with full survivor rights.

Yes, inheritance taxes are a rip off.

After reading the article The Enigma of Hitler by Leon Degrelle on IHR-web site I started to suspect that he could have been an ‘Aspi’ too. … What is your opinion

Hello Rabbit! Thanks for the replies and sorry for the delay. Damn interesting what you found there — I hadn’t looked into Hitler as being autistic, to tell you the truth. What an oversight! And now you sent me down another bottomless rabbit hole, you, you… Odd Rabbit! That’s great — thanks! And you were completely right in your intuitions — Hitler was “very” autistic — and that’s not my opinion, but Michael Fitzgerald’s (see below).

Go with your intuitions, Rabbit, and pretty soon you’ll be able to make a bunch of “diagnoses” of famous deceased autistic people that Fitzgerald himself overlooked! Anyway, I just found a few quotes in which Fitzgerald makes a “diagnosis” of Hitler as being, unequivocally, autistic — he really doesn’t mince words. These direct quotes below are from his book and from an article on Researchgate (but there really isn’t much at all in the article — just the paragraph below). If I find anything else I’ll post it here. Thanks again, Rabbit!

From Autism and Creativity, by Michael Fitzgerald

– “Many of Hitler’s traits seem very autistic.”

– “Adolf Hitler meets the criteria for autistic psychopathy described by Hans Asperger.”

– “He was a poor sleeper and had food fads. He recoiled from physical contact, was unable to forge genuine friendships, and showed an emptiness in his human relations. His conversations in the Men’s Home in Vienna were really harangues and invited no reciprocity, for which he lacked the capacity.”

– “In Munich he was distant, self-contained, withdrawn and without friends. His comrades noted that he had no humanitarian feelings.”

– “He was extremely socially awkward and uncertain in small groups. He showed little human interest in his followers, and even one of his leading supporters accused him of ‘contempt for mankind’.”

– “A colleague, Gregor Strasser, thought that there was ‘something other-worldly about Hitler…a lack of knowledge of human beings and with it a lack of sound judgement of them…he lived without any bonds to another human being’.”

– “His poor adaptation to people was perhaps most obvious in his relations with women. During his life he took only a slight interest in a couple of women. One was his niece, Geli Raubal, who effectively became his prisoner and said ‘my uncle is a monster’; she apparently committed suicide in his apartment. His second relationship was with Eva Braun, who apparently attempted suicide by shooting in 1932 and died with him in the bunker in 1945.”

– “His colleagues regarded him as a remote figure: he was an obsessive, and obsessives rarely make good or interesting company, except in the eyes of those who share the obsession or those in awe of, or dependent on, such an unbalanced personality. He was single-minded and inflexible.”

– “He spent a great deal of time with Albert Speer, examining architectural plans, and this remained a major focus throughout his life. His other major interest was in the music of Wagner.”

– “His greatest interest, clearly, was in control over people and power over people. His ability to achieve this control and power was extraordinary.”

– “Hitler had ‘a bed compulsion, which demands that the bed be made in a particular way with the quilt folded according to a prescribed pattern and that a man must make the bed before he could go to sleep’.”

– “Hitler did not use language for the purpose of interaction with others, but only for the purpose of dominating others. He endlessly engaged in long-winded, pedantic speeches, with ‘illogical arguments full of crude comparisons and cheap allusions’.”

– “After the First World War ‘his awkward mannerisms’ were noted.”

– From Fitzgerald’s paper: “Hitler was a typical person with high functioning autism, (Fitzgerald, 2004). He was a typical criminal autistic psychopath, (Fitzgerald, 2010, 2015). Hitler was enigmatic and contradictory. He had poor social reciprocal relationships, was remote, obsessive – compulsive, had narrow interests, autistic charisma, pragmatic language issues, unusual tone of voice, awkward mannerisms, unusual gait and a peculiar diet, (Fitzgerald, 2016).

The IMF has considered the possibility of a one-time 10% tax on wealth/savings to help pay the debt.

But what if, instead, they enacted (internationally) an estate tax –not necessarily 100% but somewhere close to it– to pay the debt holders hoovering up middle class wealth and delivering on their promise that “we will have nothing and be happy”?

There are so many “egalitarian” pretexts that it would be an easy sell to the cognitive peasants…

Interesting post and, of course, we recognize these individuals as geniuses but that seems insufficient as evidence of autism (and vice versa). Schopenhauer imho advanced philosophical thinking to a state which is only starting to be recognized by brilliant thinkers not associated with academe (eg Bernardo Kastrup, Michel Houellebecq) and bringing a new level of insight into this most profound thinker.

Schopenhauer on the Jews: “they are the slime of the earth and the masters of lying�.

I’m a little concerned that you’ve slighted the wolf.

I asked ”Fin of a cobra’ what is his opinion of Adolf Hitler in the article of Leon Degrelle but I see no answer from him here.
Is anyone here interested about what Leon Degrelle writes in his article The Enigma of Hitler
in The Journal of Historical Review, May-June 1994 (Vol. 14, No. 3), pages 22-26 about Hitler.
https://ihr.org/journal/v14n3p22_Degrelle.html

For me the article was a big suprise because it gave a very different picture compared to that in the MSM and official history.

This piece is from the introduction by Leon Degrelle (1906- 1994) to the second volume of his uncompleted series of books on Hitler’s life and legacy, which was provisionally titled “The Hitler Century.�
Has someone of the commentators here on UR read the books of Leon Degrelle and if so could he tell what is hie opinion.
Of course it would be very interesting to know the opinion of the writers/Eric Striker of this article.

There is an inheritance tax in Canada, but it is called an estate tax and is selective in what it covers.
The problem with pro inheritance tax arguments is that it is self defeating. If there were 100% inheritance taxes, I could gift everything I own to whomever I want, the day before I died with no taxes. Why do my written wishes for a gift not apply before my death but not after my death? Do wills become obsolete? Why should personal items be sold to benefit those outside my family? Do family heirlooms cease to exist?
“Your children should work for their money”
Sure, but why does the government not have to work for its money instead of enacting legislation to take my money after I have died? What has it, or the public who would benefit, done, work wise, to be rewarded by my meager or great wealth? Did they pay the mortgage and taxes on my house? My family missed out on things because of those financial commitments, why should others, who have done nothing for me, be rewarded while my family suffers a second time?
Fifty plus years ago when I had nothing, inheritance taxes sounded fair. Now I understand that they are a rip off.

Thomas Sowell has pointed out that both American blacks and Southern whites are basically infected with “redneck culture� derived from the Scotch-Irish in the British Isles, with various malignant attitudes and behavioral patterns

Sowell is a hack who opportunistically traded Communism for University of Chicago-school economics back in the 1970s as he saw it would lead to a more secure and lucrative career.

Sowell makes no effort to explore the historical developments and contexts that produced the Scots-Irish “redneck” culture. Nor does he attempt to explain why the social dysfunctions of the worst white groups – be they hillbillies in the Appalachians or Irish Travellers – are still several orders of magnitude less severe than the social dysfunction metrics of blacks.

He just found an easy target and a new, specious and convenient way to “blame Whitey.” Good for his career.

It’s all about culture. Jews are a literate people. That’s why they’re called ‘people of the book’. And this is essentially the same reason Koreans, Chinese, Indians, etc. are more successful and are ‘overrepresented’ at Ivy-league schools and in law, medicine, engineering, etc.

You are somewhat misinformed. East Asians are underrepresented in high-verbal-skills fields such as law. Their intelligence is oriented towards math and visual-spatial skills. In that sense, they are not “people of the book.”

And this is why immigrants from Nigeria are far more successful than American blacks…Culture is the defining factor

I think you’ve just contradicted yourself. Nigerian culture has all the same problems as other African cultures. Illiteracy, for one, is quite high. You are misrepresenting a small, carefully-selected and filtered subset (immigrants who graduate from U.S universities) as the entire racial group.

There is also evidence that Nigerians’ success relative to other African populations has less to do with I.Q. or a culture that values education/success and more to do with a hustling, get-ahead-by-any-means-necessary, urge-to-dominance temperament derived from high-levels of ‘dark triad’ traits (narcissism, psychopathy, machiavellianism).

Wherever they go, be it America or other African countries, Nigerians develop a reputation for heavy involvement in gangsterism and racketeering. For example, back in the 1990s Peter Brimelow wrote in Alien Nation:

…U.S. law enforcement officials estimate an incredible 75 percent of the 100,000 Nigerians now in the United States are involved in “an impressive and innovative variety of fraud schemes…Interestingly, Nigerian criminals come from their country’s privileged classes…� (italics added)
[Nigeria] is notorious for corruption and non-existent business ethics even by African standards…�

“It’s all about culture.” is a comforting cope. In theory, we can do something about culture. We can’t do much about genetics.

Eastern EuropeanAshkenazi Zionists’ superiority complex toward Arab Jews (and, BTW, their inferiority complex toward German Jews)

Well it’s a little more complicated. Some of the most aristocratic German Jews, like Robert Moses (who built substantially all of NYC’s transportation infrastructure) had Sephardic roots in the Iberian peninsula. There are many, many sub-groups of Jews. It’s hard to keep track of them all.

Does anyone really think that universities in black Africa are as rigorous? That universities in the Mideast South Asia are freer of rampant cheating and corruption?

100%

Even European universities are considerably less rigorous than American ones. For example, it’s normal to get a Bachelors + PhD in 6 years in Europe, which is how long it takes to get a bachelors + masters in the USA. In India you can become a doctor 5 and a half years after finishing high school. There is no question the standards are much lower in the vast majority of foreign countries.

I went to a strip club once while working at a public health agency in the federal government. The American-born strippers were so much more well-spoken and seemed a lot smarter than the foreign-born MDs I worked with at the government health agency. It was very sad. And people wonder why our health care is such a disaster.

How stupid can one be? There should be no inheritance tax, because it violates the right to accumulate private property. Any wealth owned by a person at his death was already managed to be saved despite the taxes that were paid that person’s entire life. Any wealth in my hands or my kids’ hands will be taxed under capital gains taxes. Or as sales taxes when things are purchased. There should be no additional tax for the “transfer” at my death. That, of course, is double dipping by the government, which has already taken enough.

Imagine being such a faggot that one is in favor of higher taxes on any person for any reason.

TAXES GO TO THE INCOMPETENT GOVERNMENT, WHICH IS LITERALLY A WELFARE PROGRAM FOR BELOW-AVERAGE PEOPLE.

Or it’s used for missiles. Or 100,000 new IRS or CSA agents. To further attack white people.

smdh

By the way, I’m not wealthy and neither are my parents. I’m just saying. The idea of 100% inheritance tax is super-communism. I’ve never actually heard of something so stupid.

This is just another case of wanting the state to even the score. If you can’t/won’t get it yourself, have the government get it for you, infantilism. Of course there is merit to the case of confiscation with regards to gains made by collusion with government (ill gotten gains). But as long as there’s government there will be ill gotten gains. This is why I promote an alternative to coercive government, anarchy. Learn more here.

The woke Left believes that White intergenerational wealth is a product of past racial oppression.

Apparently they can now demonstrate how a farmer in Vermont or a factory worker in Lowell or a shipwright in Portland personally profited when a cotton baron got a good price for his crop on the London Exchange. Quite an accomplishment, that. Even if any of those worthies lost his life, or his sons’ lives, in the war that ultimately ended slavery, his descendants still owe cash payments to selected persons in the present. I guess in a world where men can become women and Trump channels Mussolini/Hitler/Putin and Senile Jo is compos mentis, anything goes. In the real world, luck, or blind chance, determines a lot more about how we prosper or fail. This is seriously uncomfortable to acknowledge, for it takes down our cherished illusions of agency and security.

Excellent, simply excellent. Yes, indeed we need to find a right balance in society.

Oh, bullshit. A big inheritance tax is a wonderful thing. Of course, it will never happen. This casuistry on here is just another little contribution to making sure it doesn’t.

First of all, only start it at about 10 million dollars. Take all the money over 10 million. Then the rich can still be rich. Hell, 10 million, that’s enough for anybody to do anything.

And then take no money under 10 million. That means that working people don’t pay any taxes. Buffet’s secretary doesn’t pay more tax than he does anymore.

You didn’t mention that part, ending taxes for those of us who do the work, which is the best part of the idea.

I support 100% inheritance tax on jews.

Shame on Sowell…
Sowell is showing his black “roots” by blaming White southerners for black behavior.
Ever wonder why “Jim Crow” laws were enacted?
Jim Crow laws were (and still are) needed in order to make blacks “behave themselves”.

The “brief sentence” is a perfect description of the Holy Trinity.
Thank you.

Ashkenazim are very racist toward Sephardim.

For an excellent read and one that brilliantly explains the unhealthy, mendacious, exploitative nature of the Eastern EuropeanAshkenazi Zionists’ superiority complex toward Arab Jews (and, BTW, their inferiority complex toward German Jews), see Avi Shlaim’s memoir, Three Worlds.

Look, ZIONISM IS RACIST!!!!!

Get it?

Out-performing American blacks is not remotely impressive, at least in America.

In any case, yes, culture matters. Thomas Sowell has pointed out that both American blacks and Southern whites are basically infected with “redneck culture” derived from the Scotch-Irish in the British Isles, with various malignant attitudes and behavioral patterns.

However, genes matter too. African immigrants to the US (like those from South Asia, by the way) are heavily selected for IQ by the heavy expense and cognitive burden of attaining the credentials and income necessary to get a visa, permission to work here, and a flight. We’re skimming the cream to an extreme degree, getting a drastically unrepresentative slice of those countries that is distorting our perception of the vast bulk of those people (“surely if Dr. Malik is so smart, than all the other people still in Pakistan or Ghana must be brilliant too! Let’s let them in by the millions!”)

Until the post-Mao era, 20th century Chinese suffered drastic malnutrition, and those who did not die like flies by the tens of millions in the various famines and horrible wars had their growth stunted. Tall men in such a country would be extremely rare, but in such a vast land, there were enough for Mao to dragoon into a ceremonial honor guard of giants to impress Nixon for his historic 1972 visit. It would have been idiotic for Nixon to have concluded that the 1970s Chinese are a tall people from that sight.

On top of which, our skimming the cream of Africa and South Asia is to the detriment of both ourselves and their areas of origin. Because not only do those places desperately need their cognitive elite far more than we do, we, by undercutting our own advanced degree earners with cheap Third World knock-off imported people, do ourselves damage in the big picture and long run. White American med and law and engineering school grads who are unemployed or underemployed, only to have their plight dismissed with withering scorn, brutal contempt, and zero empathy, serve as a harsh example to other whites not to bother with academically difficult courses of study in the absence of rewarding careers to follow. Then, of course, the resulting “shortage” of med school students and such is used as an excuse to flood us with even more Third Worlders .. “jobs Americans won’t do!” in an endless accelerating spiral.

On top of which is long term damage to our politics and cultural unity. The first generation is usually grateful to be allowed to be here, and if not enthusiastically pro-America and pro-West is at least focused on quietly earning a living and keeping their heads down. But their children and so forth are quickly radicalized into heavily hostile, alienated, left types relentlessly working against the interests of the core white population, against the national security of the nation as a whole, against the history, heritage, heroes, holidays, and texture and flavor of daily life.

On top of THAT is the phenomenon of regression to the mean. Thus, while a tall Japanese is more likely than other Japanese to have tall children, he is still less likely to do so than an equally tall white man. Put another way, a tall Japanese, coming from a shorter ethnic group, has a non-literal but de facto “tug of gravity” pulling his descendants down to a shorter level than a tall Dutchman or Dinka, coming from taller ethnic groups.

That’s why, in the long (multi generational) run, high-IQ blacks and South Asians are not going to have the same beneficial effect on the economy etc as high-IQ whites and East Asians. The descendants are not going to all be as smart.

Finally, it is highly questionable just how intelligent these imported Third Worlders truly are. Does anyone really think that universities in black Africa are as rigorous? That universities in the Mideast South Asia are freer of rampant cheating and corruption? Amid extremely intense pressure to do diversity hires, the incentive to just take in anyone with a nominal advanced degree from Durka Durka U is overwhelming.

Oh really? Seems Jews morph into whatever they need to be to avoid PROSecution and/or gain special privileges: https://www.attorneysecrets.com/2021/02/the-u-s-supreme-court-held-that-jews-are-not-white-oy-vey/

If Ashkenazi Jews are Europeans why do they work so intensely at destroying whites and the West while aiding and abetting Sephardic Jews as they both fleece of the world?

ODYSSEY, is that you? Have you changed your moniker? Sheesh!

Typipjew response. Aggressive insults

You do know that Amadeus is fiction written by a Jew. Mozart in the mind of the boomer public and those who’ve been raised watching that movie is now the fictional character from a rather shitty 80s movie (the movie is very much a product of its time, which accounts for some of the nostalgia for it today – the characters are 1980s comedy sketches – like the Principal from Ferris Bueller as Joseph II.)

“Joannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart”

I suppose someday we can produce a movie positing that Mozart’s music and its influence on Wagner was an indispensable factor in the sequence of events leading to “the Holocaust” –

We can name it “Joannes Chrystostomus”

I would modify your statement a little to say that good memory
is one part of intelligence. Any objection to that?

Addendum to previous comment

You write in your previous comment: “Below the more tab I put up some links to Michael Fitzgerald’s work on diagnosing famous deceased individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome:”

I don’t see the name of Adolf Hitler among the names there. After reading the article The Enigma of Hitler by Leon Degrelle on IHR-web site
I started to suspect that he could have been an ‘Aspi’ too.
From this article of Leon Degrelle you get a quite different picture of him than what you get from the films of H-wood and the official history and the articles of the main stream media.
https://ihr.org/journal/v14n3p22_Degrelle.html
What is your opinion?
P.s. Ron Unz has written many articles about the ww2 and has proved that the official story is not true but mainly wrong. I suppose you have read these articles.
Could the same be true with the person of Hitler?

https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-understanding-world-war-ii/

—-Thanks again for your tasty comment which only seems to confirm what I already said.
It opened me up to a better understanding of myself.It seems that maybe I am partly an ‘Aspi’ myself but in a lower and much lower league. As you say there are many levels.

It seems that if you’re going to create something new you have to be an Aspi, to have this ‘neurodivergence’ which leads your brain. It is more genetic than cultural of nature which means that you either have it or not.
You can’t do anything to have it, to improve on it or to remove it. It functions automatically like the whole genetic apparatus.

I have seen that film/Amadeus and I very well understand Salieri’s pain. It is the fate of the mediocrity, those of us who are less talented and which pain I must share too.
But as you beautifully write
“we do have a consolation prize: we have a bit more than average intelligence, so we can at least recognize genius when we see it. We can feel gripped by true genius and shaken to our core. We can revel in its awesomeness and even try to get near it. And this is what I’m doing here on this site: I recognize Unz’s genius and want to partake in the boundless knowledge he so generously distributes among his readers. But I know my place in the pecking order: I can’t sing to God, but I can certainly listen to and appreciate the songs of angels. At least that’s what some of his articles and those of some other writers here sound like to me.”

Nice of you to write about this ‘Aspi’ too. I appreciate your information and enjoy reading you. And that ending of your comment is great: an ‘army of Aspi’ that could build a better world.
Thanks.

I strongly suggest rereading my post. Odd riposte, yours, I must say. You merely echoed my words. You deployed euphemism but in doing so shot yourself in the proverbial foot.

Where in my post did I suggest anything remotely about what Columbus thought about the appearance of “real� Indians. In any event his notions about what to call the first people he encountered was a mistake — of course given the uncertainties of his time about navigating to precise locations without the later employment of clocks to locate latitude — it is hardly surprising he thought he had reached India by sailing west.

Still, the speculators were right. Sailing west bypassed the land based cost of carrying goods. How was Columbus to know he had not discovered India? Perhaps he said, as an aside to one of his captains in a burst of enthusiastic euphoria “…finally India!�

You conclude: “No he was not looking for India per se but a new route to India not under the thumb of the Ottoman Turks.�

My summary, “Sailing to the source of goods the Europeans were paying high prices to obtain, meant a speculator would make a small fortune — if his funding of an expedition was successful.�

My summary implies — as does my entire post — that expeditions in the late 15th Century and the early 16th Century were financed by speculators. These people well understood, sailing to the source of the spiralling demand for imports to Europe from Asia, would end run the costs accruing carrying the goods overland through dozens of tariff barriers.

“Speculation was no different then as it is today. The speculators wanted to eliminate the middle men.

Sailing to the source of goods the Europeans were paying high prices to obtain, meant a speculator would make a small fortune — if his funding of an expedition was successful.�

After rereading my post I suggest you reread yours.

Lack of a state of their own must have been a source of anxiety before 1948. That’s why I’d expect antisemites to support Israel and welcome all kinds of refugees who are enemies of Zionism (that would include, of course, all Palestinians and also other Muslims). That dual strategy not only would make Jews less anxious, and thus plausibly less power-driven, but would make it less attractive to be a diaspora Jew living side by side with angry Palestinians than an Israeli Jew. Seeing as non-Zionist Jews are a minority within a minority, odds are that the number of Jews living outside Israel would fall considerably.
However, antisemites are doing the opposite.
Maybe antisemites like to suffer.

Thanks for this ‘Aspie-ezperience’. Your ability/skill to write seems to be enormous. I would say ‘Aspie-level’. You are in good and famous company.

Gee whiz, Rabbit, thanks for that… I think. OK, I guess I’ll take “Aspie-level writing” as a compliment. But though flattering, I flat out reject your insinuation of me being in the “company” of those Aspie Geniuses I mentioned. Oh, how I wish it were so! But no — no such luck. I’m merely a “sub-genius”, unfortunately, a term I picked up from a great essay I read a while ago, titled “Pity the Sub-genius”. Why pity? I don’t remember the arguments in the essay, but I could concoct a few of my own. Bear with me.

Did you ever see Milos Forman’s epoch-making movie, Amadeus? One of my favorite movies! (By the way, Mozart was probably also an Aspie — there seems to be no end to this….) Anyway, the main character in the movie, Salieri, a somewhat talented composer in his own right, shudders in awe of Mozart’s genius: with enough intelligence to recognize genius itself, enough depth of soul to be utterly moved by such sublime compositions, Salieri unfortunately lacks the genius himself to compose anything approaching the truly divine — which was what Mozart’s pieces were to him. Therefore, he complains to God, bitterly:

Antonio Salieri: All I wanted was to sing to God. He gave me that longing… and then made me mute. Why? Tell me that. If He didn’t want me to praise Him with music, why implant the desire? Like a lust in my body! And then deny me the talent?

Yes, I hear you Salieri! Like him, I am also a sub-genius, perhaps even a sub-sub-genius. May the Lord have pity on us. But we do have a consolation prize: we have a bit more than average intelligence, so we can at least recognize genius when we see it. We can feel gripped by true genius and shaken to our core. We can revel in its awesomeness and even try to get near it. And this is what I’m doing here on this site: I recognize Unz’s genius and want to partake in the boundless knowledge he so generously distributes among his readers. But I know my place in the pecking order: I can’t sing to God, but I can certainly listen to and appreciate the songs of angels. At least that’s what some of his articles and those of some other writers here sound like to me.

So that was just a long-winded introduction to your comment, which starts off with a compliment — for which I thank you. I do ramble on. Already I’m getting complaints from at least one fellow commenter that I repeat myself too much. Sorry for that. Anyway, the Aspie Experience. I’m glad you appreciated my last comment which was a deep dive for me. What I was trying to do was make some connections: between Striker’s article and Sombart’s book and some of the comments here. But to answer your direct question: yes, I do think Asperger’s is mostly genetics. It runs in families. Many adults only find out they have Asperger’s after they take their own kids to the doctor: their own child’s diagnosis leads them to figure out that they, too, have the condition.

As for the Aspie gene “enabling” genius-like qualities, that seems like a fair guess — the “neurodivergence”, as it is called, leads Aspies to think differently than most people and this difference pushes them towards innovative solutions to problems or creative works of literature and art. Obviously, only a tiny fraction of Aspies ever reach “genius” status, but at the upper stratosphere of true genius there is an impressive number of them.

But what I think is the kicker in Aspieness is the hyperfocus: Aspies have one-track minds and when they latch onto some “special interest” they literally cannot let go. Their favorite game when young is often playing with toy trains — and sometimes they stay on the same goddamned railroad track their whole lives. When you combine hyperfocus with genius what you get is a massively brained individual hard-wired by his neurodiversity to solve seemingly insurmountable scientific problems or to create a work of art of incalculable worth and beauty — even if it takes decades. You see that over and over again. E. O. Wilson, for example, studied ants for over fifty years. Fifty years studying ants. Just imagine. Ants. And with that he basically inaugurated the discipline of sociobiology.

But, getting back to the topic of Striker’s Sombartian article, what I’m mostly interested in right now is this: Jew-obsessed Aspies. In other words, who were the Aspie Geniuses who hyperfocused on Jews? I can think of three off the top of my head: Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, and Bobby Fischer (who was Jewish himself). Amazing individuals, amazing life histories, amazing Aspies — and all Jew-obsessed. What if we had a whole army of Aspie Geniuses hyperfocusing on Jews? Hell, you could get a lot done with them! How do you think Silicon Valley was created? By Aspies. Aspie William Shockley, who practically named the Valley itself and kicked off the electronic age by inventing the transistor, was unfortunately not Jew-obsessed; rather, his hyperfocus was on Race and IQ, and he is still “black”-listed on the SPLC site, if you know what I mean.

This Army-of-Aspies strategy has been used in other occasions, besides building Silicon Valley. Almost all the scientists who built the atom bomb were Aspies: Oppenheimer, von Neumann, Feynman — all Aspies, all Jews. Elon Musk is an Aspie himself and uses the same strategy: he gathers a “small group of motivated individuals” to complete his projects — but what he really means is that he depends on Aspies to get them done. What’s interesting about Aspie Musk is that I think he is secretely Jew-obsessed. He has repeated many times: “I am obsessed with the truth”. And I’ve seen some hints of this and he’s taken some hits from the Jews — described in the incredible essay Unz produced about Musk’s “going to Canossa” episode a few months back.

What I wonder about is this: the Jews cancelled Hans Asperger himself, accused him of being a Nazi, and got the formal condition named after him, Asperger’s Syndrome, removed from the DSM-V in 2013. These days, you’re not even supposed to say you have “Asperger’s — it’s verboten. Why? What’s the real reason they did this? I suspect it was because Jews know what formidable opponents Aspies can be, that is, if Aspies decide to hyperfocus on the Jews themselves. If and when an Army of Aspies is mobilized and becomes hyperfocused on Jews — on the Truth — then, Rabbit, we might have more than a snowball’s chance in hell to bring down the world-ruling satanic Jewish Power Structure.

They have a certain sense of inter-ethnic competitiveness that I’ve also seen in Asians, especially Chinese.

Big part of iq tests are pattern recognition which can easily be taught and memorized. Good memory does not equal intelligence.ĺ

Although you are a bright and learned person, your arrogant, humorless and dismissive manner does not serve you well. You also might have more productive exchanges if you confined your arguments to the person at hand, rather than to a figure of your imagination.

On the subject of Jewish genetic diseases I have not asserted a thesis which I need to defend, or that you are compelled to attack, with the exception of my quote from Jnetics, which is a solid source. My first comment (89) to you was cautious and openly inquisitive, using phrases such as “may be,””may have also” and “merits consideration.”

While I enjoy a humorous exchange of insults on occasion,
your unprovoked vitriol is exceptional.

You were teasing, right?

I shall not proofread this reply. You do not deserve the effort. I type badly.

Good try. You earned a broken bronze star.

But again you show you are incapable of the meticulous research, analysis, and argument necessary to the addressing the matters you think you try to address.

(1)

Of the disease-group that includes Tay-Sachs Disease, Goucher Disease and Cystic Fibrosis (those you mentioned), many do not cause neurological dysfunction that could prevent a victim’s performing validly in an IQ test or render IQ-test-results invalid.

Also (I repeat), IQ testing tends to occur when the subjects are children [see below] or, less, [see below] “adolescents” (inter alia, to avoid learning bias); and many arguably-inherited, and other cerebral neuropathology-producing diseases or their neuropathy-symptoms begin in adulthood, even middle age.

(2)

If a disease causes neuropathy but NOT IQ-test-relevant cognition-affecting neuropathy, the disease does not prevent valid IQ testing of the victim. If a disease causes symptoms that do not affect cognition-function that IQ tests measure, the disease does not invalidate or render unreliable the victim’s IQ test score. The matter is not whether a disease causes neuropathy. The matter is whether the neuropathy bears invalidating effect on IQ-test performance.

A neuromuscular-symptom-causing disease does not preclude valid IQ testing of the victim. IQ testing does not require that the subject write or type or point to answers. Speaking suffices, or even, e.g., eye-blinking. The subject must be able at least to hear and see, or read braille, and communicate comprehensibly.

Pain can invalidate an IQ test. Neuropathy-causing diseases — and surely other diseases — can cause pain. But non-cognition-affecting analgesics are available.

(3)

You did not indicate (with proof):

� (a) the diseases that produce unavoidable IQ-test-invalidating symptoms in victims of (i) ages ≈6 to ≈13 (the ages IQ when testing is most reliable), (ii) ages ≈14 to ≈20 (the testing ages when testing is still significantly reliable, but at 95% -98%, not 99%, level) [IQ testing is useful, but less reliable, if the subject is older than ≈22.]
â—� (b) the frequency of Jews’ suffering such diseases
� (c) the frequency of such diseases’ actually producing their cognition-affecting symptoms consistently and unavoidably when the victim is ≈6 to ≈21 years old.

Consider the first disease you mentioned — Tay-Sachs disease. It occurs as a childhood-onset disease and as an adult-onset disease. The childhood-onset symptoms include, inter alia:
1. Behavioral abnormalities
2. Gradual loss of motor-skills/movement-control
3. Hearing and sight diminution or complete loss
4. Frequent respiratory infections
5. Slow loss of vision and speech
6. Decline of cognition and brain-driven motor-reaction
7. Seizures

But what is the frequency of childhood-onset Tay-Sachs disease among Jews?

Adult-onset Tay-Sachs disease victims tend to begin suffering symptoms at circa age 17-19, though symptoms may not begin until later, even at victim age ≈30. Adult-onset symptoms are less severe.
And cognition-affecting symptoms tend not to commence until several years after onset of the first, non-mentation-affecting symptoms.

The matter is, clearly, very ambiguous. You have not begun to diminish the ambiguity. Rather you have increased it.

I shall not deconstruct your argument further. It is YOUR argument. YOU bear the burden of proof. You must show, inter alia:
â—� (a) all, but only, the cognition-affecting diseases that attack Jews
â—� (b) the frequency of those diseases’ impairing perception, cognition, and communication unavoidably and significantly — in Jews
(i) beginning at ages ≈6 to ≈13 years
or, instead,
(ii) beginning at ages ≈14 to ≈21 years.

You must prove all pertinent variables, e.g.,
(i) symptom-unavoidability
(ii) communication-preclusion.

And you must prove the frequency of such variable in Jews of the preferred IQ testing ages.
