Moreover, the few extra years of schooling largely yield group-think, which is abundantly evident in medicine, academia, much of science, all of MSM, etc. Rural, formally uneducated people have not spent their lives not learning. They know tons of stuff and their human instincts are generally intact, unlike smarmy academics who can’t see the forest for the trees, as above. ABN

Members of Congress have taken hundreds of AIPAC-funded trips to Israel in the past decade

While AIPAC is well known for sponsoring trips for lawmakers and aides to Israel in an effort to build support for the Jewish state, the full extent of that travel has not been clear until now.

A new analysis of thousands of records shows that, thanks largely to AIPAC’s nonprofit arm, Israel is far and away the No. 1 destination for privately sponsored foreign travel by members of the House and their aides.

More than a quarter of the roughly 4,100 privately sponsored foreign trips they have reported taking since 2012 were for travel to Israel, according to a study by the Howard Center for Investigative Journalism at the University of Maryland, which is publishing its findings in partnership with POLITICO.

That’s more trips to Israel than to the entire Western Hemisphere and the continent of Africa combined.

The essence of mind-control is inducing a trance state. Going to Israel on their dime and being ushered around by skilled hypnotists (that’s what this is) ensures a trance state. For readers unfamiliar with this idea, notice how hypnotic it is to go to a doctor or hospital. Medical facilities reek of collective hypnotic trance. This trance is induced in medical schools, from which only the trance-susceptible will graduate. It affects doctors, nurses, receptionists and patients. Nurses tend to be less lulled by the medical trance because they can leave and find work elsewhere, whereas doctors may lose their license if they speak against the covid vax. I mention the hospital example not to detract from what Israel has done to Congress but to provide a common example of how large groups can be be profoundly entranced. Another example is college and university departments, nearly all of which are liberal and donate proportionately almost exclusively to Democrats. This does not happen by accident and is decidedly not because academics are smarter than others. It is because people with some higher cognitive training (but not quite enough) tend to become deeply entranced by the mores and strictures of their fields of study and those who teach them. Math, some hard sciences and engineering are somewhat less likely to have this problem because of objective rigor and subject matter less conducive to hypnosis. Once instilled, a trance state will be passed down from one generation to the next, often causing one generation after another to become weaker, less thoughtful, and even more entranced. It’s not hard to see this if you know what to look for. ABN

Mind-control couched as early education

More than anything, the left is characterized by their advocacy for mind-control. They not only want to control your mind, they want to control your children and grandchildren even more. Zap their brains as early as possible with presumptuous ‘conversations’ is how you ‘save our democracy’, which means their hellish vision of a totalitarian future. Notice the smugness and self-righteousness they project while also being so boring you want to tune them out forever. They are literally achieving victory by numbing our minds to gain access to operating on our children’s brains, thus disabling their minds. ABN

‘Our government has been hijacked and there is no one up there governing much of anything!’ — Douglas Macgregor

‘Our government has been hijacked infiltrated and taken over and there is no one up there governing much of anything is actively pursuing policies not in the interest of USA but of a secret cabal bent on planetary totalitarian control!’ FTFY, Colonel. Your first paragraph is correct but is contradicted by your second paragraph. The infiltration and takeover has been a decades-long effort, slow moving at first but now all but complete. What role the Trump administration will play in this violent KOBK game is anyone’s guess. The stakes are extremely high. Historically, there has never been so much at stake. The secret cabal cannot backdown. Maybe they will go into deep hiding under Trump. Maybe not. No one can predict in detail what will happen. Even top players cannot be completely sure of their power and how much of it is really theirs. It’s possible, the election will be thrown and the faction backing Kamala wins. It’s possible Trump will be assassinated or otherwise disqualified. My sense is, cabal is letting him win. As those factors and more play out over the next few weeks and months, it will be possible to know more about where our nation and the world are headed. And how Trump will deal with those who are in control of the American government. ABN

Intelligent men exhibit stronger commitment and lower hostility in romantic relationships

Men’s general intelligence is associated with better relationship investment and lower aversive behaviors, according to a study published in Personality and Individual Differences.

Past research shows that higher general intelligence (g) is associated with numerous positive life outcomes, such as academic success, better socioeconomic status, and lower likelihood of criminality. These studies also suggest that intelligence may play a role in romantic relationships. General intelligence has been linked to lower rates of divorce and higher chances of being married in mid-life, but the effects of intelligence on more nuanced relationship behaviors have not been as widely explored.

In their new study, Gavin S. Vance and colleagues examined how men’s intelligence related to behaviors such as partner-directed insults, sexual coercion, and relationship investment.

Their research builds on existing theories that intelligence could influence romantic relationship behaviors. Some past studies suggested that specific cognitive abilities, such as problem-solving and memory, can contribute to better conflict resolution between partners. For instance, people with strong working memory skills tend to recall their partner’s perspective during conflicts, helping to reduce the severity of relationship issues.

Working memory can be cultivated and improved. Memory is important in Buddhist mindfulness practice as well as in Buddhist ethical practices. Memory skills greatly enhance FIML practice. Some people are fundamentally more talented mnemonically, but most people can very effectively improve interpersonal skills when working with a compatible partner. Mindfulness when applied to interpersonal communication improves not only memory and communication skills, but also our understanding of how we actually are operating in the world. In a nutshell, morality boils down to internal subjective integrity — active use of our working memories, Buddhist mindfulness, and FIML all contribute to a wise understanding of what we are and why good ethics are of fundamental importance to that.

FLASHBACK 2002: Zbigniew Brzezinski on Israel

A reasonable analysis which yielded exactly nothing. Israel is not playing by Western reasoning. They are playing by KOBK reasoning, infused with Jewish chutzpah and hubris in spades. Their allies by marriage, employment, bribery and blackmail inside USA and Europe carry them forward in plausible secrecy, a form of plausible deniability: ‘it’s not only us!’ Even our best public thinkers run from this subject even though it is precisely this which is driving us into WW3. The video above is 22 years old and, as of today, nothing is better, everything is worse. ABN

Rabbi Shmuley on Jewish influence in Western politics

Personally, I don’t think this is a good thing. The same pattern appears all across USA and European politics and major institutions. The same social/religious group is also on the verge of starting WW3. Descended from 300 Jewish males and their non-Jewish wives, the Ashkenazi Jewish community is highly inbred and self-referential to the point of uncontrollable self-deceit. It’s a small group made larger by affiliations like those mentioned by Shmuley. Psychologically and sociologically its hubris is driving the West to civilizational disaster. We are so close to nuclear war and planetary annihilation, we have to engage this subject openly and seriously. ABN

‘God ought to destroy this country for what we’ve become’ — A Christian perspective on Israel and USA

This is Rick Wiles. I have only watched him a few times but believe he has a large audience. I am posting this because it is religious news. And also because Israel, with help of American Jews and their toadies, is getting very close to starting a major war in the Middle East, if not WW3 itself. Whether you agree with Wiles or not, Epstein is widely believed to have been doing precisely what Wiles is saying. ABN

Megyn Kelly telling the truth about transgender madness

Much like covid, this issue is top-down, coming from professional organizations and government. It is not only madness on the ground, it also has the very strong appearance of being an act of asymmetric warfare against the American people. Mass immigration also has this appearance, as do many other US policies or allowances like the opium massacre which has transmogrified into the Fentanyl massacre. I am resigned to us having an elite but not a dirty, smelly, vicious and nasty elite full of cabalistic shitheads and perverts. ABN

Doctor delays federally funded puberty blockers report for political reasons

An influential American physician has admitted to delaying, for nine years, the publication of a taxpayer-funded study on the mental health effects of puberty blockers in youth with gender dysphoria for fear that the results could be used to support prohibitions of so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors.

Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy, a leading Los Angeles physician who runs the largest youth gender clinic in the United States, told the New York Times that she and her colleagues have delayed publication of results from a two-year-long study funded by the National Institutes of Health because they worried that the findings would be used by critics of transgender procedures for minors.

“I do not want our work to be weaponized,” Olson-Kennedy told the publication.

The nearly $10 million study followed the development of 95 children from across the country to see if their mental health improved following treatment with puberty blockers.

Olson-Kennedy said that treatment with puberty blockers did not lead to mental health improvements, likely because the children were doing well when the study began.

“They’re in really good shape when they come in, and they’re in really good shape after two years,” she said.

But the unpublished findings contradict preliminary research released by Olson-Kennedy and colleagues in 2022, which found approximately a quarter of adolescents were depressed or suicidal before starting either puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones.

Gender, race, and IQ studies are all politicized. Inverted woke ideology demands it. This is not science, nor is it a good way to run a huge society. It is both obvious and in perfect alignment with evolutionary theory that groups of humans long separated from each other will have multiple differences in all spheres of activity, including IQ. It is also obvious that providing strong drugs to children so adults can act out their fantasies about gender dysphoria does not make good sense. Ideologies that want to remake humans or are based on fantasies like the sameness of all humans are stupid and wrong on the face of it. Hiding a measly research paper because you fear its results will be ‘weaponized’ is itself weaponization of its results. The West today is characterized by fear of facts, fear of discussing facts, fear of facing the factual complexities of human reality. This fear has both been caused by an internecine pathocracy and also has allowed that pathocracy to flourish. ABN
