  • Never paranoid enough

    More leaks about Francis Collins, who turns out to be a psychopathic demon in the same class as Fauci. The lesson here isn’t really about Collins. He’s identical to all demons in positions of power. The lesson is for followers who try to find “opposition” or “lesser evils” among the demons. There is no opposition.…

  • WPA 1/5, background

    Time for another review/renew series. Five parts from top to bottom. Part 1, Background (this item). Part 2, Oklahoma. Part 3, Teacherages. Part 4, Post offices. Part 5, Summary. = = = = = The New Deal set up dozens of overlapping agencies at first, then gradually simplified the arrangement. In other words, FDR didn’t…

  • WPA 2/5, Oklahoma

    The WPA was engaged in a huge variety of tasks, all focused on the SKILLS of workers. People need to be useful, and men need to make things. Training develops the soul and brain most effectively and permanently when you’re MAKING THINGS that are visible and useful and a source of pride to your parents…

  • WPA 3/5, teacherages

    I’ve modeled a fairly typical teacherage and a fairly typical country school. I’ve placed them together in one scene, but they weren’t really in the same location. Many WPA schools have been preserved and documented. The bigger ones are still schools, others have been repurposed. Only a few of the teacherages are documented, and none…

  • WPA 4/5, post offices

    My subscription to Academia.edu brings in interesting articles from obscure sources. This article lays out the concept of devotional conservation. When I model these Lost Places and Patient Things, I’m trying to counteract the modern chaos generators by giving new life to artifacts and viewpoints from saner times. In an era of millisecond-scale Github updates…

  • WPA 5/5, summary

    WPA’s main goal was to make people useful. WPA gave poor people a meaningful way to use their existing skills for money. Men without existing skills learned a marketable skill while building schools and parks and dams. WPA also taught new skills to adults who already had jobs. The Dust Bowl was caused by poor…

  • Wolf explodes a myth

    And speaking of modules sharing a common ground… Wolf’s latest excellent graphs tell a story that breaks down the conventional media myth about 2008. I hadn’t seen these graphs before. I knew that the myth about a US housing bubble was wrong, but I assumed it was a US phenomenon, not international. Wolf shows stock…

  • More on central vs decentral

    Continuing with the Sucker Filter of bitcoin. Another obviously fraudulent claim is privacy. Running all of your transactions through NSA is not the ideal way to preserve privacy. NSA is a SPY AGENCY which knows better than anyone else how to break cryptography and bust through software limitations. Even more obviously, the transactions themselves can…

  • Return to Truman 2

    Still watching all the “independents” falling into line like passive iron filings near a powerful magnet. Still branching from that Feb ’50 Mutual news broadcast. It includes a brief emotional snip of the HUAC committee grilling Henry Wallace. The simple FACT is that all politicians were neutral and non-combatant from 1920 to 1940. We actually…

  • There’s gambling in a casino?????!!!!

    Astonishingly, JPMorgan turns out to be the power behind Ethereum. The responses from the cult leaders are predictable: The same thing that happened with the internet (Web2) is happening to Web3. Stand up and fight for decentralization while you still can and don’t lose focus because of greed. Decentralization IS greed, you idiot. Decentralization is…

  • Define introview.

    Semi-relevant to Batya’s crusade about modern “journalism”. From a 1958 publication by Natl Assn of Broadcasters. Modern “journalists” are all superficial extroverts. Not this guy. The Maj Gen is trying to penetrate his defenses with the top secret Eyebrow Ray, but it doesn’t work on introverts. We never make eye contact.

  • The muddlers are worse than the cancellers 2

    Following from here. This morning the anti-cancellers are weeweed up about: Apparently it wasn’t a real cancel, just a postponement of class coverage, so again this is more muddling than cancelling. Fact: FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS A MYTH. Censorship is permanent and normal. If you go back 1000 years in Russia and in England/America, you’ll…

  • Finally a realistic fable

    I’m constantly hammering on the permanence of status and caste and popularity. Meritocracy is a cruel fraud, and most of our myths and stories are designed to ruin unpopular and low-status people. Reprint on the theme: = = = = = START REPRINT: All human traits and talents and tendencies are innate and permanent. Some…

  • Return to Truman

    CNN and MSNBC are pushing ‘limited nuclear war’ to destroy the entire world. All the peaceniks and hippies are superhawks. We’ve seen this pattern before. MBS radio news from Feb 3 1950: Republican representative Robert Hale said the country isn’t frightened enough by atomic weapons. But Senator Elbert Thomas says people are too jittery. He…

    As usual, Wolf’s excellent graphs show the end of the “pandemic” project. This was planned as a two-year project, March 2020 to March 2022. A specific set of stock demons were scheduled to Zoom up during the two years. Zoom, real estate flippers, delivery services. They knew the schedule, so they knew when to pull…
