Poor comparison
Let’s try a comparison of the clubs and interest groups in the 1950s UFO craze vs the 2020 “virus” holocaust. The comparison is messy from the start because the government’s experiments were opposite in form and scale. So I can’t draw a proper analogy. I’m just looking at the organizations. UFO: Government was experimenting with…

As usual the reason matters more than the content….
According to Vice, Deepstate has “released” a bunch of documents about its UFO research programs. Skimming some of the links, it appears that nothing much has changed since the ’50s. The government was “trying” to achieve antigravity propulsion in Project AVRO back then, and it’s still “trying” the same thing. The beta tests of these…

Classy Spokane
Bank robbers in the meth era just don’t measure up to the old Dillinger standard: Uhaul trucks have governed engines. You can’t achieve a “high rate” in a Uhaul, unless they mean a “high rate” of absurdity.

First day of freedom
A couple observations from the first UNGAGGED bus trip in two fucking years. 1. I had been rigorously minimizing Time Under Ballgag, with only two hellish storetrips per week. Before the Nazi takeover I was generally doing three trips, because they were enjoyable. Now I can return to three when needed, but the concomitant changes…

An old contrary view
Not immediately topical, just an item I’ve been wanting to highlight. In this short clip, commentator Raymond Gramm Swing covers two trials that were happening in 1938. Swing points out that our conventional view of both trials was (and still is) flat wrong. Pastor Niemoller was NOT a rebel. He was a ferocious Kraut soldier…

Pithy again
Another pithy point from Kirn: “Belief” or “disbelief” are no longer relevant concepts to use in relating to digital content, verbal or pictorial. You have no reliable way to render such assessments. Instead, ask what narrative is being served, what resources were spent on serving it, and who it might benefit. Well, digital has nothing…

ALL FREE! (for a while)
I was totally discouraged and disgusted last night when the Trump-appointed “judge” ordered TSA to drop ballgags, and the airlines eagerly went along, but the bus system refused to follow. Today they apparently got word from the federal demons. I don’t know why they decided to go along; presumably it has more to do with…

Rhetorical
Kirn’s latest pithy point: How comes there’s an official psychiatric Oppositional Personality Disorder diagnosis but not one for compulsively going along with every order you receive and then wanting more orders to go along with when those run out? How come they’ve medicalized dissent but not compliance? Of course it’s a rhetorical question. Freud was…

Should have stuck with SW
Still on info input and output…. Censorship is all about info inputs, and the criterion is caste, not content. Correct Persons are allowed to insert their info into the closed-circuit web. Incorrect Persons are not allowed to input. We’ve been conditioned to assume that Twitter and Google and Apple are the ONLY channels. Simply and…

What about fake input?
Fake info seems to be my theme today. Fake output is extremely old, basically nature’s default mode. Everything keeps secrets, everything tries to deceive. Fake input is a brand-new phenomenon. I’ve never figured out what the readerbots are doing with this blog. They’re easy to recognize in StatCounter: Always Win 10 and the latest version…

More rambling on secrecy
Continuing on the theme of default secrecy. If secrecy within the family or community or guild is normal, when is secrecy bad? Easy answer. Any tool or phenomenon is bad when it’s used aggressively and cruelly. Blackmailers manipulate secrecy to gain money and power. Deepstates manipulate secrecy to gain money and power. Every cell and…

When TV was local
Lately I’ve been reading the Enid Buzz facebook page regularly. Enid is still my home, the only place where I felt like a citizen. I’ve never felt like a citizen here in Spokane. After 30 years, still an outsider. The Enid Buzz page has frequent history features, and I recognize most of them instantly, at…

Statusotopic mapping?
If we start from my unconventional thought that secrecy is the default, what happens? If we treat this as the baseline assumption, what about “innovation” and “robust debate”? First some clarification. I’m talking about secrecy and language within a family or tribe or guild, not secrecy between all individuals. Language forms the circle and keeps…

Old game
I’ve noticed for a while that influencers who are realistic about most aspects of the fucked-up world are also selling bitcoin. This shibboleth works both ways in a perfect balance. Influencers who are strongly opposed to bitcoin are perfectly orthodox about all other aspects. They agree with DNC/CNN/MSNBC on all topics except bitcoin. There’s a…

Nothing new
The wokies have been trying for a long time to grant “rights” to rivers and gorillas and turtles. The “conservatives” have been screeching about these “rights”. First, stop screeching. This is an inevitable and automatic result of the lethal Enlightenment lie of “rights”. You invented this crap and you have been insisting for 250 years…
