It is a tell. The tell is the top perp is a top parasite who has taught the art of parasitism to many others to conceal its own role while also using others to help it reach its goal — total annihilation of Western civilization. My sense is the absolute cause of this is sexual jealousy, followed by all other kinds of envy and jealousy. Alongside that are the other raging traits of all parasitic cultures — hatred of the host, glee in destroying the host and feeding on their wealth, in humiliating them, in killing and torturing them, in fucking their women. I am not going to say I am certain Jewish Supremists are the core of this attack and its leaders, nor am I going to say Carlson is suggesting they are the core, but who is it if not them? The royal families of Europe are sometimes mentioned as suspects, but it’s a weak case. Other ethnic and woke parasites who are running rampant with the core parasites have similar motives as the core group, including root sexual jealousy, but no history or ability to organize on their own. China is an exception and they do appear to have partnered with any anti-Western parasite who will take them, including Mexican cartels, but this is fairly recent history. China is formidable and deeply involved, but its ties to US parasites point mainly to the same core group or groups. ABN
UPDATED: All American laws are ultimately pragmatic. This includes SCOTUS rulings on the Constitution as well as district prosecutors deciding how to work a case. Legal pragmatics include ethics and precedents, while also recognizing the urgency of, say, removing millions of illegal immigrants in USA. The legal remedy in this case properly must fit the crime, which was treasonous importation of millions of illegals. Sending a plane-load of violent illegals to El Salvador was a pragmatic decision as it removed some of the worst and also sends a strong message to others of their ilk to get out of the country. It’s a pragmatic application of the law. ‘Legal’ objections to it are absurd in the face of the massive offense (treason) and massive harm (tens of millions of illegals ushered in to USA under Biden). Below is an illustration of the problem. ABN
President Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff traveled to St Petersburg (interesting venue), and spent approximately 5 hours in discussion with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his top two advisors. This was Witkoff’s third direct face-to-face meeting with President Putin.
First, President Putin would never give this much time to a non-principal in any geopolitical conversation, unless Putin felt he was directly talking to the principal through the voice in front of him. In essence, Trump has told Putin that Witkoff is his mouth and ears, Putin responds accordingly. When Putin speaks to Witkoff he is speaking to Trump, and when Putin hears from Witkoff he is hearing from Trump.
Following the five-hour meeting with President Putin, Witkoff appears on Fox News so that Sean Hannity can tell Witkoff what his meeting with Putin really means. Hannity is not only insufferable, at this point in time he is best considered a confidential human source, ¹acting on behalf of the CIA who influence him. WATCH:
Within the brief moments provided by Hannity for Witkoff to speak, the envoy of President Trump noted both Putin and Trump understand the core issues and are aligned to solve the problem despite the CIA and SSCI efforts to keep wedging them apart. Additionally, Trump and Putin see a future where geopolitical and economic alignment can be very beneficial for both Russia and the United States; they just need to find a way to navigate the complex politics on the U.S/NATO side of the mess.
President Putin does not want an alignment with Chinese President Xi Jinping, it’s not a natural fit for Russia to be strategically networking with China. Put a simpler way, Putin really doesn’t like Chairman Xi because Russia values brutal honesty in relationships, not the Beijing cunningness, ulterior motives and manipulative self-interest.
President Trump and President Putin can be natural allies. Both leaders have the same basic national security worldview and on an economic front Putin would rather have financial ties to the West than the East.
However, the broader CIA apparatus is not going to give up power or control to President Trump without a fight. Recently the CIA operated rotor wing (helicopter) drones to attack Moscow in order to provoke a useful response from Putin. Despite the efforts of Donald Trump and Marco Rubio, both the CIA and State Dept embeds are operating to maintain their control in Ukraine.
Russia is a major part of the West. There is no other more natural ally to Europe and the collective West than Russia. Putin has always seen it this way. The question is who controls the CIA, thus causing them to work against this alliance. Who started and is prolonging the Ukraine War? Ukraine is what Russia would look like today had Putin not gained control. There is a large component of Jewish Supremacism showing through wide cracks in American and European policies toward Russia. The collective West, minus Russia, clearly wants and has stated many times that they are working to break Russia into a bunch of small nations that can be easily controlled. The deepest question is who controls the collective West, which probably means who controls the CIA? Does Trump know? I doubt it. Are Jewish Supremacists in control of the CIA? Do they themselves even know? The puzzle of who has ultimate control within a top secret and extremely powerful organization (the CIA) illustrates that even the most powerful people in the world may not, and probably do not, know who is at the top. In fact, even the top person may not be sure he is at the top. This is the basis of KOBK game theory, which is always the bottom line of world history. As for Jewish Supremists: if they are the top controllers within the CIA and thus the collective West, why are they so obstreperous about it? Are they neurotic hegemons of the world or are they ‘mere’ nervous fronts for the real hegemon we cannot see? ABN
Much discussion between races has been on the black and white, but it’s much more nuanced, and thus perhaps more intriguing, to analyze the achievement gap between the west and the east.
Richard Lynn and J. Philippe Rushton have produced credible and data-backed articles that show how East Asians fare better in a host of traits, primarily intelligence. However, during one recorded session with J. Philippe Rushton, he seemed to be not able to answer the question about how eastern societies had not been able to develop to the extent the Western ones had. This popular conception that Asians fare better than Whites in terms of intelligence contrasts with how East Asian societies fare compared to Western ones, both past and present, and with how the Chinese had been perceived.
In 1894, Arthur Smith published Chinese Characteristics, a collection of twenty-six essays. The author had great credentials: he had spent roughly two decades in China. This is a fairly accurate book, although a lot of the content seems to be more negative than positive. Throughout the book, Chinese are portrayed as little better than savages, vastly different from the current view. Judging from the essay titles alone, the ills of Chinese society are named in the title of nine essays, although many more are sprinkled throughout other essays: (5) Disregard of Time, (6) Disregard of Accuracy, (7) Talent for Misunderstanding, (8) Talent for Indirection, (12) Contempt for Foreigners (15) Indifference to Comfort and Convenience, (21) Absence of Sympathy, (24) Mutual Suspicion, (25) Absence of Sincerity.
Those who are both very poor and very ignorant, as is the fate of millions, have indeed so narrow a horizon that intellectual turbidity is compulsory. Their existence is merely that of a frog in a well, to which even the heavens appear only as a strip of darkness.
Life consists of two compartments, a stomach and a cash-bag. Such a man is the true positivist, for he cannot be made to comprehend anything which he does not see or hear, and of causes as such he has no conception whatsoever. Life is to him a mere series of facts, mostly disagreeable facts, and as for anything beyond, he is at once an atheist, a polytheist, and an agnostic.
As with much of what I post, I do not necessarily agree with this author but find the topic interesting and his viewpoint refreshing. Cultural differences are very real as are genetic difference which are molded or honed by culture over the centuries. The whole world needs to do much more talking about cultural and genetic differences and similarities. The essay above may get some people thinking and inspire others to delve into this topic.
Trump has launched a response to China’s decades-long trade war against us. One factor at play was referred to the other day when Trump said of Xi, ‘I don’t think he knows how to make a deal’, or words to that effect. Having lived in China for many years, I have noticed that most of the time most Chinese see ‘deals’ as win-lose propositions and they almost always go for the win at any cost. There are exceptions but not many, in my experience. On the world stage, we are seeing that same zero-sum strategy being played by Xi Jinping and the CCP; the only difference between him and CCP leaders who preceded him is he is more ruthless, more zero-sum in how he makes ‘deals’. A tangential observation to this one is over the past 10-15 years I seem to have noticed a decline in the dating value of Chinese women in the West. If true, that may be due to their not knowing how to make relationship deals that are good for both parties. ABN
FIML is both a practice and a theory. The practice is roughly described here and in other posts on this website.
The theory states (also roughly) that successful practice of FIML will:
Greatly improve communication between participating partners
Greatly reduce or eliminate mistaken interpretations (neuroses) between partners
Give partners insights into the dynamic structures of their personalities
Lead to much greater appreciation of the dynamic linguistic/communicative nature of the personality
These results are achieved because:
FIML practice is based on real data agreed upon by both partners
FIML practice stops neurotic responses before they get out of control
FIML practice allows both partners to understand each other’s neuroses while eliminating them
FIML practice establishes a shared objective standard between partners
This standard can be checked, confirmed, changed, or upgraded as often as is needed
FIML practice will also:
Show partners how their personalities function while alone and together
Lead to a much greater appreciation of how mistaken interpretations that occur at discreet times can and often do lead to (or reveal) ongoing mistaken interpretations (neuroses)
FIML practice eliminates neuroses because it shows individuals, through real data, that their (neurotic) interpretation(s) of their partner are mistaken. This reduction of neurosis between partners probably will be generalizable to other situations and people, thus resulting a less neurotic individual overall.
Neurosis is defined here to mean a mistaken interpretation or an ongoing mistaken interpretation.
The theory of FIML can be falsified or shown to be wrong by having a reasonably large number of suitable people learn FIML practice, do it and fail to gain the aforementioned results.
FIML practice will not be suitable for everyone. It requires that partners have a strong interest in each other; a strong sense of caring for each other; an interest in language and communication; the ability to see themselves objectively; the ability to view their use of language objectively; fairly good self-control; enough time to do the practice regularly.
In mathematics, a ‘computation’ is the process of performing mathematical operations on one or more inputs to produce a desired output. A problem in analyzing human psychology arises when we understand that human psychology cannot be reduced computationally. The ‘computational irreducibility’ of human psychology does not mean, however, that there is no way to probe it and understand it. In the following essay, I show how FIML practice can greatly enhance our understanding of our own psychologies and, by extension, the psychologies of others.
Rather than rely on tautological data extractions or vague theories about human psychology, FIML focuses on small interpersonal exchanges that can be objectively agreed upon by at least two people. These small exchanges correspond to what Wolfram calls ‘specific little pieces of computational reducibility’. When we repeatedly view our psychologies from the point of view of specific little pieces of computational reducibility, we begin amassing a profoundly telling collection of very good data that shows how we really think, speak, and act.
FIML is a method of inquiry that deals with the computational irreducibility of humans. It does this by isolating small incidents and asking questions about them. These small incidents are the “little pieces of computational reducibility” that Stephan Wolfram remarks on at 42.22 in this video. Here is the full quote:
One of the necessary consequences of computational irreducibility is within a computationally irreducible system there will always be an infinite number of specific little pieces of computational reducibility that you can find.
This is exactly what FIML practice does again and again—it finds “specific little pieces of computational reducibility” and learns all it can about them.
In FIML practice, two humans in real-time, real-world situations agree to isolate and focus on one “specific little piece of computational reducibility” and from that gain a deeper understanding of the whole “computationally irreducible system”, which is them.
When two humans do this hundreds of times, their grasp and appreciation of the “computationally irreducible system” which is them, both together and individually, increases dramatically. This growing grasp and understanding of their shared computationally irreducible system upgrades or replaces most previously learned cognitive categories about their lives, or psychologies, or how they think about themselves or other humans.
By focusing on many small bits of communicative information, FIML partners improve all aspects of their human minds.
I do not believe any computer will ever be able to do FIML. Robots and brain scans may help with it but they will not be able to replace it. In the not too distant future, FIML may be the only profound thing humans will both need to and be able to do on their own without the use of AI. To understand ourselves deeply and enjoy being human, we will have to do FIML. In this sense, FIML may be our most important human answer to the AI civilization growing around us. ABN
Never been a fan of Rubio, but if he keeps this up, does not stab Trump in the back and really believes 85% or more of what he is saying, he is presidential material. I am above all a pragmatist. If Rubio stands by his words and continues the pragmatic game in play today, I will support him in 2028, among other possibilities. Politics should be without emotion. It’s fundamentally based on action and, often, dark and hidden exigencies it is impossible for us to know; that’s the realism part of pragmatics. Even political leaders do not and can not know everything. We the people can generally figure out about 80% of what is going on, as has been demonstrated over the years by conspiracy theorists. Rubio has an unsavory past, imo, but if he can change his actions, we can change and support him. ABN
“When a society loses its moral compass, it collapses from within.” – G.K. Chesterton
A Thread Exposing the Decline of the West
1. The Celebration of Obesity
The “Body Positivity” Deception
The rise of “body positivity” has twisted the concept of self-acceptance into glorifying unhealthy lifestyles. Obesity, once recognized as a serious health risk, is now celebrated as an alternative version of health, all under the guise of promoting self-love.
This dangerous narrative not only normalizes life-threatening conditions but discourages individuals from taking responsibility for their health, ultimately benefiting industries that profit from illness, such as Big Pharma and the processed food sector.
See also One description of how the human population is being culled. The deep strategy is much worse than mere decline. The strategy is the destruction and takeover, followed by the annihilation of the West. The deep tactics of this takeover have been and still are mind-control and violence. Virtually everything in the public political and social sphere is mind-control theater and we are all in it. The violence is both obvious and covert. See the world through this lens and you will see much more clearly. Once you understand the violence, its means and purpose and how much of it there is, you will see even more clearly. ABN
UPDATE: I am bumping this to the top of the page and highly recommend watching it. It’s from a couple of days ago but is not at all outdated. Trump is the only American president to open cabinet meetings to the public in this manner. Trump’s cabinet is the public face of his comitatus, which is an ancient political core formation dating back to 2,000 BCE if not earlier. The comitatus has been used throughout Eurasian history and is still a primary form of governance, central to almost all successful governing bodies today. As you watch this, imagine you are watching Marcus Aurelius, Genghis Kahn or Alexander the Great speaking with their top generals and administrators, their comitatus. In a comitatus all members must be loyal to their leader. In ancient times, a leader’s comitatus would commit suicide upon his death. This was a great honor. In later times, only his innermost people would kill themselves. As you watch the video above, notice how each member of Trump’s cabinet praises him and displays fealty to his leadership. Notice how Trump defers to them in many ways. This is the way it should be and always has been. Put on your anthropologist’s hat or your historian’s hat to fully appreciate what you are seeing. Insofar as Trump and his comitatus are able to act as a single team with a common focus, they will be hugely successful. At some point, they will fight among themselves over who will be the next leader, but for now it will be best for all of them, and for us, for them to cooperate and do their work quickly and efficiently for the good of their country and ours.

Was Israel involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy? (Is there any hard evidence or is it mostly conjecture?). And if Israel was involved, then what was the alleged motive?
Ron Unz—Although there exists no smoking gun proof implicating Israel and its Mossad in the JFK Assassination, there is an enormous mass of circumstantial evidence that they played a central role in the conspiracy, and they certainly stood very high with regard to means, motive, and opportunity.
American law ultimately is political and/or pragmatic.
This is obvious on many levels. Sometimes this fact of life is abused a little bit one way or the other, without dire consequences.
Where it matters is in serious situations. USA is facing an extremely serious situation right now — tens of millions of illegal migrants illegally brought into this country by the corrupt Biden regime.
The Biden regime’s purpose was to flood our nation with new Dem voters, which will rapidly yield a one-party state entirely under Dem control. This must be recognized and laws applied accordingly.
Deportation policies today and their legal justifications must be based on the obvious need for removing Biden’s illegal migrants as quickly as possible. If you want to preserve our precious legal framework and the rights of individuals, strict pragmatic policies must be implemented now.
This is not a legal contradiction or a question of Constitutional protections. This is not a time for dithering over legal punctilios. American civilization is facing imminent extinction. The time to act is now. Biden twisted the law to effect an invasion of USA. Trump must bend the law (far, far less, if at all) to remedy Biden’s treason.
I posted this video this morning (several posts below) along with an essay on the dangers of an advanced AI surveillance state. I commented on that essay before watching the video because a totalitarian surveillance state is a very real and dangerous possibility and many of us are talking about it. Now that I have watched Vance’s talk, I am posting it alone. In my view it’s a good talk and I agree with the policy directives Vance outlines. As a Buddhist, I am fundamentally an optimist and do not worry too much about things I have no control over. In many comments I have said our best defense against totalitarianism is free speech and platforms that host thriving free speech. Free speech can be thought of as a kind of biological technology that always sifts through the data and eventually finds the best stuff. This process must needs always be ongoing because everything is always changing. ABN
When Vice-President JD Vance delivers prepared remarks about Artificial Intelligence, pay attention.
JD Vance is the 2028 presidential candidate of choice for the Technocrats; the current goal is to envelop the MAGA populist movement for the intents and purposes of the collective network of Technocrats.
This motive and intent baseline will not change as Vance positions to replace President Donald Trump.
During a speech to the American Dynamism Summit, JD Vance outlines his optimism for the future of the U.S. economy, as boosted by the technological advances in artificial intelligence.
Within his remarks, Vance correctly notes some voices are saying there is going to be a major fracture between the “Techno-optimists” and the “populists.” However, Vance defines that chasm, and then refutes that fear/concern around jobs, advanced AI, automation, innovation and the economy. He misses what will be the root cause of the fracture completely.
Vice-President Vance notes there is nothing to fear from innovation, artificial intelligence, robotics and advanced industrial application of emerging technology. Indeed, all facets of economic growth through the use of all the aforementioned enterprises are correctly framed by the vice president.
There is nothing to fear on the economic front from the technological advancements currently underway.
Let me repeat, before I get misinterpreted….
Everything JD Vance says about the economic future of the United States, against the backdrop of innovation and AI is accurate. JD Vance is 100% correct. However, that’s not the predictable root cause of the upcoming fracture between the Techno-Optimists (his term) and the MAGA populists.
The fracture is going to come as an outcome of how AI networks with government and then destroys privacy, liberty and ultimately freedom for Americans.
It is not the economic side of the AI system Vance supports on behalf of his benefactors that is problematic; it’s the creation of a compliant surveillance state that flows as a natural outcome of advanced and automated AI systems within a highly weaponized government. That’s the problem. That where the fracture will occur.
Techno-optimists are not paying any attention to how their beloved AI networking can be weaponized in a surveillance state. When you combine fully automated AI data processing with ‘Real ID’, facial recognition software, digital identities created for each American and the motives of govt, you can easily predict what comes next.
The U.S. surveillance system can then be fine-tuned (depending on who is in charge of it) to use the real-time digital and physical identity to control access to systems. Write a Facebook post critical of government, get blocked from your bank account. Do something defined by government as against their interests, lose your access to travel etc.
The problem for Americans is how advanced AI will be deployed under the guise of efficiency to create a comprehensive DHS surveillance state.
The predictable system will automate, connecting every aspect of our lives to our compliance in living that life in the manner approved by those who control the system.
Privacy, freedom and liberty, core fundamental principles of our American system, are replaced with surveillance and defined citizen compliance. These are the pesky issues JD Vance and his Techno-Optimists (Thiel, Sacks, Musk, Ellison, et al) do not want to consider when they think about those pesky ‘proles’ they call “populists.”
Vice-President JD Vance has been constructed as the palatable messenger to calm the fears of MAGA. To calm those AI fears, Vance focuses attention to the well-discussed AI issues around jobs, labor and employment as outlined in his speech.
Listen carefully. However, the issue is not economics, it’s about privacy and liberty.
Reposted in full with permission from Sundance. I definitely see the problem but do not see any way out of it, save we the people having enough free speech to communicate our shared dissatisfaction and thus influence the powers that be. We the plebs have already allowed our civilization to be inundated with incompatible mass immigration, and we have even paid for it. Who is to blame? Not AI.
The Buddhist tradition has long been a ‘render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s’ one. I am black-pilled on our technological future when viewed in terms of the past and assessed with values formed in the past.
My white-pilled, optimistic side envisions digital babies with super-high IQs; AI so good and so well networked, everyone is wealthy and no one needs to be greedy. If everyone is super smart, healthy, and has all they need, the ancient human values of violence, dominance and might makes right, may wither away. All of us are capable of murder but very few ever do it. Several generations of digital babies will produce the finest human beings possible. In their hands AI surveillance will also have the capacity to prevent fraud, group parasitism, evil cabals. Bad as it looks today, I see lots of room for optimism and no matter what, Buddhist practice works in all worlds. ABN
