We know the answers to the “when” and the “where.” Blue eyes became common during the last ice age within a region encompassing Germany, Scandinavia, the East Baltic, and probably areas farther east.
At that time, Scandinavia and the Alps were under ice. Northern Europe was habitable only on the plains stretching from northern Germany eastwards. Before 12,000 years ago, these plains were steppe-tundra with wandering herds of reindeer and nomadic bands of hunter-gatherers. Actually, they were just hunters. There were few opportunities for gathering fruits, nuts, tubers, or edible greens. Food was almost entirely “meat on the hoof” (Hoffecker, 2002, pp. 8, 178, 193-194, 237).
But why would such an environment favor blue eyes? Davide offers four possible reasons:
Lower UV exposure requiring less melanin protection
Sexual selection for distinctive traits
Genetic drift in smaller northern populations
Need for lighter skin to maintain vitamin D synthesis where sunlight is weaker
We need the term meta-Q which means “general meta cognitive ability,” or the ability to see the meta levels of several arguments at once including nuance and branch arguments.
IQ generally connotes being good at taking a test of reasoning, language, and some sort of abstract thinking.
People with high IQs probably also have high meta-Q. The advantage of adding this term is it distinguishes how arguments are presented and considered, how they are analyzed.
For example, mainstream medicine has usurped the meta-Q of virtually all covid reasoning. Fauci at the top either determined or became the spokesperson for what “the science” of covid is and no other view has been allowed. Literally hundreds of millions of people have been forced to agree with the irrational dictates of an irrationally narrow covid meta-Q. Big Tech aided and abetted this mockery of reason by censoring and deplatforming anyone who brought complexity and nuance into the prison yard.
The covid example is roughly the same with other issues of the day, such as election fraud, the January 6 “insurrection,” Critical Race Theory, equality of outcome, and so on. The country is divided because the meta-Q of public discourse is so low there can be no mixing of ideas, no synthesis, no rapprochement.
Magnates of meta-Q usurpation are most of the famous public “thinkers” in USA: Michael Shermer, Cass Sunstein, Nikole Hannah-Jones, Bill Maher, Fauci, Lakshmi Singh, famous actors, etc. These people are supported by editorials, talking-heads, politicians, terrible academics (most of them), and so on.
In private conversations, discussions always go badly when there are too many voices with low meta-Q training or ability in the room. Arguments become simplified and nuance is rarely acknowledged. Meta-Q is the ability to “see over” a problem, to see beyond the words, to what an argument is, how it was formed, what it will result in, how it moves through time, and what alternatives there are.
I am pretty sure most people could be trained to increase their meta-Q considerably and surely to at least know when it is called for and who is doing it well. ABN
One way to understand the Buddhist term karma is to replace it with the word drama.
‘This is my karma’ becomes this is my drama, or better, this is the role I am playing in my drama.
It’s my role in my drama and thus I can play my part the way I want.
The best way to do that is to follow the Noble Eightfold Path, but it’s up to you.
Seeing your karma as a drama you are acting in removes the very deeply mistaken misinterpretation that karma is a form of punishment or reward.
Drama also implies group drama, other actors, and in one way or another some sort of playwright, which might be understood as the grand scheme of things or you yourself.
Buddhism is a mind-opening practice, so we are free to interpret it in a way we understand and can use creatively and productively.
Modern physics suggests a strong possibility that a fundamental quality or force in the cosmos is consciousness itself.
In that sense we are participants in the consciousness and unfolding dramatic evolution of the universe.
If you want to put God in there, go ahead, no problem.
The Buddha left God and many other lines of thought out of his descriptions of human existence to keep people from clinging to words or relying on a supreme being without doing anything for themselves.
There are many ways we can understand our lives, but a central theme in Buddhism is we progress through our own efforts and life is sort of drama, which resolves in whatever way it does due to our own thoughts, views, and behaviors. ABN
Mortality is an indisputable outcome and thus a reliable statistical marker of the danger of the covid vaxxes.
But where there is mortality there is sure to be many times more instances of morbidity.
Factor this morbidity into the rise in colon cancers, strokes, other cancers, and more.
Whether they were designed as bioweapons or not, the covid mRNA vaxxes have worked like bioweapons, including probable insertion into the human genome of deleterious genetic traits. ABN
This angle appears to show the back of Kirk’s shirt rising before the front of his shirt.
This supports the hypothesis that he was shot (probably in the ear) from his right and slightly behind.
This observation is supported by other videos which show the wire from his earpiece flying away from his head’s right side, while the thick cable around his neck and attached to that wire is suddenly pulled up and around the back of his neck.
Since we do not see his earpiece fly away from his head in any video but only its wiring, we can presume with some certainty that Kirk was struck directly in his earpiece, after which the projectile went through his head and exited from his neck’s lower left.
If Kirk was struck by a projectile which targeted his earpiece, and thus went directly into his ear, it is not unreasonable to hypothesize that the projectile was programmed to target a signal emitted by his earpiece, thus assuring perfect accuracy.
There are numerous videos and photos of super-fast mini-drones present at the rally while Kirk was speaking.
These drones are reported to have reached estimated speeds of 150mph, which would indicate they were military-grade and probably operated by a government or a very wealthy private organization.
A drone like that would likely have capabilities beyond just flying fast.
These capabilities might include the ability to shoot small projectiles with great accuracy after homing in on a signal; in this case a signal from Kirk’s earpiece.
It’s also possible the projectile itself was a super-fast mini-missile which was capable of homing in on a signal produced by Kirk’s earpiece.
If both of these conditions are true, perfect accuracy would be assured.
The tiny projectile/ missile would enter Kirk’s head through a direct hit on his earpiece.
This would conceal the entry wound from video evidence. So far, we have no video evidence of an entry wound.
If Kirk was hit by a mini-missile, that projectile could have been programmed to self-destruct, thus explaining no evidence so far of any bullet having been found.
We are now left hoping there will be an honest autopsy.
Given the extremely weak and sloppy case case against Robinson and the slews of counter evidence to it, plus the long history of cases like this yielding dubious, at best, autopsies, it is all too likely we will never know who or what murdered Charlie Kirk. ABN
For those having trouble following along with all of the controversy within “public health” as practiced in USA, vaccines, and medical practice.
When you distill it all, it comes down to the rights of the individual versus the rights of the collective.
Modern “Public health” is all about maximizing the greatest happiness for the greatest number, and acts to advance the rights and interests of the collective. Traditional medical practice is focused on the rights and interests of the individual patient.
From this, you can appreciate why socialists and leftists are all in on the rights of “Public Health” to impose mandates, and those that support personal liberty are aligned with the medical rights of the individual and the importance of informed consent.
“Public health” in USA believes that the rights of the collective are more important than the rights of the individual.
The work of Karl Marx and colleagues supports the collective as pre-eminent. The US Constitution and associated founding documents disagree and emphasize the rights of the individual.
Collectivism vs individual rights. That is really what this is all about.
When I first encountered that theory, I didn’t care to even look at the arguments. I suspected people posting such theories of being cognitive-infiltrators or trolls. But then, the ballistic issues kept point me to that possibility, until I stumbled upon this 19-minute “breakdown” video by Ben Werhman, which I invite everyone to watch.
I am not sure this theory is correct, but I believe it is plausible and deserves consideration. However, I consider the trail of the freemasons, mentioned in this video, as a red herring (unless we’re talking of B’nai B’rith). In my view, the theory of Kirk’s fake death does not contradict the theory that Israel decided to eliminate Kirk for the reasons that have so widely circulated that even Netanyahu has felt the need to dismiss them. The theory of Kirk’s fake death simply means that Kirk was given the chance to be disappeared alive, instead of dead. That Israel masterminded the event is all the more likely that Kirk’s security was reportedly Israeli, as Kirk himself seems to imply in this conversation with Bill Maher: “If you want security, the Israeli know what’s their doing.” He is probably referring to the Zionist-owned Shaffer Security Group, who ended their contract with TPUSA in 2022, but reportedly reappeared for Kirk’s final event. A security team is supposed to secure the roofs, I remind you.
Ben Werhman’s theory is that Kirk’s gun wound and death was faked with a blood squib equipped with a small remote control explosive, exactly as they always do it in Hollywood. I will recap his arguments, and then I will see how this theory dovetails with another interesting theory concerning Erika Kirk.
A major factor supporting this hypothesis and video is we never see much blood on the ground, on other people, or in the scene of Kirk being carried to the SUV, a very unusual thing to do in a case like this.
Maybe by this point Kirk had already bled out, but where’s the blood in any of the earlier scenes?
I am posting this essay and video as speculative but significant information.
Guyénot provides some interesting conjecture on Erika Kirk in the article linked above.
None of this would be necessary if we had reason to believe the FBI. All of this is necessary since we have a very long history of reasons to not believe the FBI. ABN
UPDATE: I once assisted the FBI in a case that made national news.
The investigation went on for a number of weeks and I spent more than a few hours helping the FBI agent who asked many questions.
I am mentioning this because that agent was very good.
I knew many details of the case and she absorbed those details and other information I had with professional calm and clarity.
The end result was the FBI did not prosecute, which was the correct conclusion for them to have reached.
I helped with the case because I knew the parties involved were all innocent.
It’s good to remember there are many good people in our government. ABN
Though stated as factual, Peters’ analysis is speculative. And yet it’s somewhat convincing.
I have posted on Kirk’s mic and the probability it was the actual weapon, but Peters has added the suspicious brown shirt guy and the man who jumps over the table as plausible participants.
Filing this under ‘speculation’ but like all reasonable speculation, it is worth keeping in mind.
It is clear as of today that not nearly enough evidence of Robinson’s guilt has been presented to the public to make a strong case.
Indeed, the evidence presented so far looks like the kind of bogus narrative we find every single time something like this happens.Mind-control works best when the false narrative is presented immediately.
Moreover, Candace Owens has stated she has information that the FBI is pressing Utah authorities to close the case now because further inquiry will only spoil their Robinson-did-it story. ABN
UPDATE: No hand-off apparent in frame-by-frame video:
To understand how Israel has gained a near-total control over the American ruling class today, we must understand Israel of course, but we must also study the principles by which any ruling class operates. The perfect book for that is The Ruling Class, by Italian political scientist Gaetano Mosca (1858–1941). Mosca begins by establishing the following law (p. 50):
In all societies, from societies that are very meagerly developed and have barely attained the dawnings of civilization, down to the most advanced and powerful societies, two classes of people appear: a class that rules and a class that is ruled. The first class, always the less numerous, performs all political functions, monopolizes power and enjoys the advantages that power brings, whereas the second, the more numerous class, is directed and controlled by the first…
No matter what their internal divergences are, the ruling class is bonded by a high degree of solidarity: “the minority is organized for the very reason that it is a minority” (p. 54).
It follows that the main object of political science must be the study of various types of ruling classes. Mosca, p. 336: “We must patiently seek out the constant traits that various ruling classes possess and the variable traits with which the remote causes of their integration and dissolution, which contemporaries almost always fail to notice, are bound up.” Historians and journalists remain at the surface of historical events when they ascribe them to the decisions of heads of states, who are only, as a rule, the public faces of a ruling class, and sometimes not the main decision-makers.
A ruling class can be overthrown, either by a foreign conquest, by a coup d’état, by a revolution, or in more subtle ways that are not always immediately perceptible by the ruled. But any change of regime, even if provoked by popular uprising, leads to the formation of a new ruling class.
All this may seem quite obvious, but reading Mosca and pursuing this line of thought has modified my perspective on political regimes, on the illusion of Democracy, and on what Israel is up to.
The explanation below does not seem to account well for lack of burn and tear damage to Kirk’s shirt, but it does talk about his wireless microphone as being a probable weapon to have fired the fatal projectile.
This a not an unreasonable avenue of speculation, especially when we know weapons of this type exist and have been used recently with similar effects.
This is all speculation, but some of the main anomalies of this incident point to something other than the lone rooftop shooter.
A projectile under his shirt or in his microphone clasp or within his earpiece could have been what killed Kirk. And it need not have been fired by an explosive.
We owe it to any murder victim, and especially Kirk, to follow all leads without bias. ABN
The article below is related to the video above. The video above is not part of the article below:
Based solely on my analysis of the two angles of the events on September 10th I have come to the conclusion that this is the object that struck Charlie Kirk in the neck.
The DJI Mic 2 is a wireless microphone with a rectangular magnetic clasp. This device has a 300mAh battery that weighs 8 grams.
On that day Charlie had the microphone mounted with the bulk of the device underneath his shirt. Notice the magnetic clasp on his shirt and the angle that it rest.
This is the battery for the DJI Mic 2 transmitter that was underneath Charlie’s shirt. This is a 8 gram 300mAh battery that’s unique in that it’s very easy to swap. A 2 gram charge of PETN would match the power of a .30-06 and leave 75% of the battery functional. Undetectable.
