The Slow and Steady Demise of South Africa
The end of Apartheid in South Africa brought a surge of hope for a brighter future. But the ANC, the party that liberated the Black majority from oppression, has transformed the country into a swamp of corruption, mismanagement and despair.
The failures of the ruling elite has plunged South Africa into a dire political and economic crisis. Six out of 10 young South Africans are jobless and more than half of the country’s 60 million residents live in poverty, according to the World Bank. Furthermore, South Africa’s murder rate is one of the highest in the world, with around 25,000 victims per year. Since Apartheid, more than half a million people have met a violent death.
For the fiscal year 2021-2022, the auditor-general found that 219 of the country’s 257 municipalities did not have clean audits. In countless cities and municipalities, the infrastructure, administration, education system, health system, sewage and garbage collection are all subpar or completely dysfunctional. In many places, not even the trains are running, while some regions are forced to go for days without running water.
An independent investigative commission recently disclosed the degree to which public officeholders have systematically plundered state-owned companies and institutions and driven them into bankruptcy – from the flagship airline SAA and the public broadcaster SABC to the national postal service. Thus far, not a single high-ranking politician has been convicted in the final appeal. And despite repeated pledges to take action, President Cyril Ramaphosa hasn’t dared to do anything, likely out of concern that the kleptocrats in his own party would push him out of office.
An Endgame for the Ukrainian War w/ John Mearsheimer, Alexander Mercouris and Glenn Diesen
UPDATE: This is an excellent discussion. Mearsheimer makes many insightful points very clearly. There is also continuous exemplary interaction between Mearsheimer and Mercouris, showing one way the sharing of ideas can best proceed. ABN
…a Dark City you cannot leave
Absurd and dangerous laws like this illustrate the extremely strong bonds humans have with default vocabularies, default cognitive tautologies, default authoritarian control, default conformity. These default bonds are the core of why mind-control works and how it works. Goose any of these bonds and droves will follow. We are right now living inside a multifaceted totalitarian panopticon—a Dark City you cannot leave. Is penultimate reality that we are controlled by Satan or mired in the First & Second Noble Truths of Buddhism? ABN
The timeline for full deployment of the modern United States internet control system, is likely around late fall and early winter this year, in advance of the 2024 U.S. election cycle
I share this information with you so that you understand what is being constructed and what is about to be deployed on a large scale throughout the U.S. internet operating system. The U.S. internet will be different. The social media restrictions became more prevalent and noticeable in the past several years; now it is time for DHS to expand that process to the entire U.S. internet.
The timeline for full deployment of the modern United States internet control system, is likely around late fall and early winter this year, in advance of the 2024 U.S. election cycle.
Everything will change. Every route of online traffic including Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) to filters and rerouting on Domain Name Systems (DNS), to the Internet Protocol (IP) itself will be subject to change in the form of background shadow banning. If the DHS partnership is successful, you will not initially notice – much like a shadow banned platform user doesn’t notice their new defined status. The shift will become more obvious over time.
One odd outcome will be a regional targeting system. Depending on where you are in the USA, your online experience will be different. There will also be enhancements to your internet travel based on your profile. Good thinking users will have benefits that enhance the experience of the user and supports the interests of the national security guardians.
♦ Deployment of a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is irrelevant in this construct. A VPN is like you renting a car without a license plate. You travel past all the Automatic License Plate Readers, arrive at your destination, leave the keys in the ignition and just abandon the car. Your personal travel was essentially invisible to the APLR system. However, when the internet roads are controlled by the national security state, and there is no longer an offramp to the destination, your VPN use is irrelevant – you cannot reach your destination. That’s part of the shift.
You will notice I use the term “definition” quite often. That is because the root of every control mechanism is grounded upon defining things. When you accept the terms ‘disinformation’, ‘misinformation’, and/or ‘malinformation’, you are buying into the process that permits definitions to determine your travel. Those who define both you and your destination, ultimately control your online experience.
If you provide content online, you probably already have noticed this happening to you. Total information control by advanced AI is a modern iteration of the First & Second Noble Truths—that we suffer because we cling to delusion. Escaping our delusional group karma will require paying wise attention to the truths of our own unique mind-streams and experiences. That has always been the case in the human realm. The good side of this is it has become so obvious today (if you look) how delusions are made and propagated. Fully understanding the First & Second Noble Truths = Enlightenment. In this context, FIML has more value than ever. ABN
Peterson on the demise of Canada and the West
Mildly of good analysis but leaves out that the decline of the West is not due only to the anarchic psychological vindictiveness of individuals. It is much more fundamentally the result of decades of organized infiltration into all major Western institutions. We are well past the mid-point of unrestricted war against the West through parasitic infiltration. Now that our institutions have been taken over, the battlefronts are chaos and complexity leading to civilizational collapse. Hatred of the host is the DNA of cultural parasitism. The infestation ends only when the host expires or succeeds in overcoming the parasite. The destiny of parasitic groups is different from the destiny of disturbed individuals. As the primary parasitic conquest grows and proliferates, other parasitic groups join in, as do many disturbed individuals, but their core goals are not the same. Peterson, who claims not to understand history, also fails to understand that we are facing an organized invasion. It’s not just many disturbed individuals acting anarchically. ABN

‘NSA broke into my Signal account’ — Tucker Carlson
No one should be surprised that NSA/’they’ have everything. Maybe Tucker actually is surprised, who knows. A lot of what we are seeing ‘leaking out’ is the part of the psyop that gets us used to the idea they have everything and there is nothing we can do about it, which is true. Digital IDs serve the purpose of controlling us even more and also letting us know and forcing us to accept that we can be totally controlled. I wish Tucker well. He has been doing good work. These comments are not meant as criticism of him. They are just a description of reality. Our best strategy is to get mass understanding of our predicament, which is dire. ABN
Malignant narcissism and identity
Malignant narcissism is an extreme form of narcissism characterized by aggression against people who threaten the narcissist’s narcissistic supply.
A malignant narcissist sees the other person as the threat, not just what they say or do.
This makes sense in that a narcissist has at some level concluded that they as a person are the standard for all things; thus, other people are blamed and attacked far out of proportion to whatever the narcissist believes they have done.
In Christian terms, the malignant narcissist blames the sinner not the sin and thus attacks the sinner, even when the sin may be as mild as a withheld compliment or a deserved rebuke.
I think all narcissists behave in a manner similar to this, though the ordinary type, which is very common in this world, is less aggressive than the malignant type.
Since narcissism is so common, one can say that in some ways narcissists have good reason to be suspicious of others and take revenge on them. There really is a good chance that they are dealing with another narcissist, who will do the same to them if they get the chance.
In a previous post, I wrote about the vortex or tautology of identity, the tautology of basing our identity on a semiotic matrix that, by its very nature, always refers back to the same “identity.” A malignant narcissist is an extreme example of this problem.
The semiotics of malignant narcissism are such that the narcissist sees his or her identity as being the person they really are. Seeing themselves in this way, narcissists apply a similar logic to others—at their core they are people who must be opposed or attacked for even the slightest perceived offense.
A group example of extreme malignant narcissism might be North Korea. If an NK citizen makes a single mistake—even a slight verbal mistake—they run the risk of being executed and also having three generations of their family sent to prison for life. The reasoning is that the original offender is a very bad person, which can be known from what they said. And since they are very bad, they must have influenced every person in their family who is younger than them and been influenced by every person in their family who is older than them.
If that isn’t hell on earth, I don’t know what is.
It is my belief that most groups, even very cute and nice ones, tend toward narcissism and many of them tend toward and become malignantly narcissistic. This happens because groups form and maintain themselves on the basis of shared semiotics, which necessarily are formulaic or simplistic.
We can see malignant narcissism in many religious, political, nationalist, or ethnic groups. The clearest sign is a disproportionate response to criticism—banishment, murder, violence, loss of employment, etc.—but narcissistic groups can also be clever and hide these responses or delay them long enough that the connection to the “offense” is hard to see.
Just as narcissistic groups cannot bear criticism, even self-criticism from within, so individual narcissists are bad at introspection. For either one, to honestly view and assess the core value (me!) is to destroy the false identity. For either one (group or individual) this would be a wonderful thing for them and others, but it is hard to do because their semiotic matrix is a tautology and they cannot admit this, or usually even see it.

UPDATE: I agree with this. And will only add that the plot to do this dates back many decades. You could say centuries, but it has been unfolding strongly since WW2. The clandestine elite of our elitists hate the West and are close to destroying it entirely. All of our elitists are bribed, blackmailed, or willingly cooperating with their clandestine masters. This is why all Western policy, almost without exception, is destructive, suicidal. You will know them by their fruits. Their names in many respects are unimportant. Who is a cutout, who is a shill, who is a top dog? It is less important to know that than to know the fruits of their deeds. They are as an army of parasites consuming the West from the inside out, from the top down. You will know them by the fruits of their deeds. By the results of their policies and actions. The first step in dealing with this is understanding what it is. ABN
This Disturbing Theory About the Maui Fires Makes Too Much Sense — Todd Callender Interview
UPDATE: I try to watch whatever I post before posting it but in the case of this video, I did not have time. The subject is important and generally Man in America is a good channel, so I put it up. A good friend sent me the following comment on this video:
Something is striking me as really off with this video. There is some other game being played.
Now in this video – the attorney just drop using militias under Trump to take back the gov. And demon Aliens being behind it all. It seems to be walking people into greater violence. That seems a bad bad idea. I am not sure what game is afoot – but a game nonetheless. Craziness.
Surely the Maui fires had some bad actor shit going on – but the conclusions are not necessarily the better way. It isn’t how to fight this – Gandhi, MLK and other already showed the way.
There is a book “American Gods” where different groups are convinced to fight and it all ends up as a blood offering to Odin – no matter who wins – Odin gets the blood he wants. Seems the game is of this sort. Mass chaos, death, confusion. Americans fighting Americans. The depop and a chance to take everything for the people with the biggest weapons.
I may have something to say after watching the video myself, but probably not. ABN
BRICS in one chart
UPDATE: A mere glance at this map show how tragic it is that Europe did not seize the opportunity to form a solid, mutually beneficial alliance with Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union. Instead, directed by US neocons, Europe did almost everything it could to destroy the possibility of that alliance. All the blame falls on the neocons, no one else. Russia, especially under Putin, did all it could to become a rightful member of the Western alliance. The worst foreign policy mistake in world history has been the neocon West antagonizing Russia when they should have been embracing her with open arms. I have been watching this tragedy unfold over the past thirty plus years and take no pleasure in seeing what has resulted. The West will go on, the world will go on, but what a monumental waste it was to reject Russia. ABN
