Kooka, there is no real war between Moscow and the West, but if Putin plays his position too meekly - the West would mercilessly get rid of him.
To me the most plausible explanation is this:
imagine the world as Chicago and a mafia in its heyday. Chicago is run by a few powerful players (mafia families) who have the city split into districts where they run their organized crime. Although rules, territories, pecking orders are set, these players are only human - they are greedy, petty, jealous etc. So fight over Ukraine is not real war between West & Russia, but merely a mafia turf war partly about Ukraine but more importantly about abundance of Russian resources.
Regardless of their quarrels one thing these players fully agree on - regular folk are useless eaters who have to be kept on a short leash and exploited as much as possible. That is why West, Zelensky or Putin could not care less how many Ukrainians or Russians or eventually Poles or others die in this skirmish. That is why all terrible things are happening all over the world at the same time, at the same pace - CBDC, vax, green madness and ESGs, mass migration etc.
This Chicago mafia allegory is almost certainly closer to reality than any other description. There's nothing really to add or remove, except maybe that mafia or any organized crime is state-sponsored and sanctioned. There is a bigger game at play, and the players of that game are playing the organized crime, intelligence (C.I.A., F.B.I. M.I.5/6, etc.), attorneys and law courts like the pawns and chess pieces they really are. You're bang-on the money about what regular folk mean to them. We're just witless NPCs, automatons incapable of agency that they farm for taxation revenue but who'll throw their own bodies into the fire on command.
The more you think about it, the more you realize that this is so, right... it's a cold eye-opener we're experiencing. In a way it's good to have this eye-opener, but at the same time useless if there is nothing we can do to change things. To me it seems that self-destruction is built in the human, by means of the mental disorders of psychopathy and neurosis. It's just a matter of when, not if, this self-destruction takes place. It's really too bad that psychopaths can exert such pressure on 'normal' people to do their bidding. What would be the driver there...? Fear? Money? Status? Hoping to be one of the boys? Laziness? I mean, it would be so easy to resist the psychopathic impetus, no? Seems to me, but who am I to speak for those that are under the spell of the psychopathic mindset. Therefore, recognizing and staying out of the cross-fires is the best you can do, under the acknowledged circumstances. Thanks for Riley's efforts, and grateful for the insightful comments by the contributors here. :-)
The masses have always been an exploitable resource for the unrepentant 'elites'. That phenomenon is the basis for the "masses = slave cattle" meme, and is more than apt.
That said, any one of us could effect significant changes if we were willing to do the needful. It's instructive that so few of us do our own FBI has to step in and provide incentives and support to even meet their quotas.
But another more accessible change you can make with the eye-opener is to adjust your level of collaboration with the regime, whatever that looks like for you.
Very well said, sadly... that's how it is. They're all in on it, and they don't give a rat's ass about the people. It's all show, if you think they care about the people. It's pure psychopathy and we're witnessing the psychopaths doing their thing again, just like it's been going on for centuries. Unstoppable.
There is less of that in Russia for sure (same applies to the so-called muslim world BTW), but only less. Regardless of how you look at this, it should not delude you into excusing Russia/Putin from everything else. Even within Russia itself people are blinded by ravaging patriotisms (because of the war in Ukraine) and willfully explain away everything that unequivocally proves that Putin is part of the global "Chicago" cartel.
It doesn't delude me into excusing anything about Poutine, be reassured, otherwise, I wouldn't be as frequently on that slavsquating substack. I am very sad that the pretense of Russia being a beacon of traditional values are overdue.
The fact is that I am, as a French, witnessing a total collapse of not just traditional values, but of our humanity. Our ruling class is pedocriminal. Have you heard for instance about the case of that judge who was selling his 12 years old daughter on the web, promising the right to sodomize her, piss on her and who is free with an electronic bracelet while his wife is still a judge? do you want the sources? Have you heard about a so-called président of our country who had been abused when he was 14 years old by a 39 years creature (was it a male or a female?). Our ruling class is truly pedocriminal like in Belgium (remeber the Dutroux affair?). I can give you a lot of proof that I am not exaggerating in any way. Now, sex is going to be teach in schools like it has stated this year in Belgium. Last year, before it has been made official, in St Étienne, 10 years old kids had been told in school, that a woman could suck the dick of a guy and lick his balls for pleasure. In Bordeaux, a trans event had been organized without the consent of the parents and when they contested, they were met by the police. I could go on and on Klim, it is now official and called EVRAS (Éducation à la Vie Relationnelle, Affective et Sexuelle) and even though most pedopsychiatrists consider it a wreckage for young minds, contesting it is an offense.
This is not a Russian-Western power struggle, but a war of the Jewish Masonic "elite" against us, the inhabitants of the planet. It is a complete takeover and genocide...
p.s. Ida, I hate to point it out, but both Putin and Zelensky are good friends with the Chabad Lubavitch, which you probably already know too. We have to accept the dire truth that's in plain sight. It would not surprise me if Ukraine is captured by the Chabad, once leveled. All paid for with bags and bags full of money continually sucked out of EU the last few years, as "support for Ukraine". In any case, my bubble is burst on the whole Russia / BRICS development, even though they act more civilized than these braindead morons in the West with their rainbows, tranny-ism and pedo-ism. But so be it... bubbles always burst. Next!
This is such a taboo subject - which is exactly why we should attack it. With gusto, even.
Zelensky (Jewish; Ashkenazi? more than likely; Zionist? almost certainly) has done very well indeed from his engagement by Kolomoiskyi (Ashkenazi, Zionist), Victoria Nuland (Ashkenazi, Zionist) and the U.S. Deep State (many Ashkenazis, Zionists) as the treacherous toxic gnome figurehead "Defender of Ukrainian Democracy." There are now two-year old reports of a 1.4 billion dollar reward windfall for his villainy, villas in Tuscany and the exclusive Como lake, Italy, and the fact-cheka all deny it so it must be true, that he's also got property in south Florida worth tens of millions, and finally a multimillion dollar home for his parents in Israel that was purchased years ago, because nothing says "I stand with Ukraine" more emphatically than buying a luxury "life boat" in the country you really minister to.
Oh, but as per The Atlantic, February 28, 2022: "... the Ukrainian president captivates the world with his bravery ...", and The Forward, March 1, 2022: "As a Jew, it is impossible not to feel proud of the courage, dignity, and defiance shown by Zelenskyy."
Years ago, in the USA, Sen. Daniel Inouye already spoke of the shadow govt. We, people in the USA, used to only whisper to each other of this taboo subject. It was so damn taboo. Sick really, when you think about it. Now it is pretty much out in the open. In Holland, the alt media is pretty open about these skunks. The world is run by these psychopaths, and they're all doing each other's bidding. If you think that Trump the crypto-zionist is going to save you, think again. If you think Putin will save you, think again. Sure, he's got good manners and rejects the idiocy of pedo-ism and all the other insane isms, but he's in the pocket of the Ch Lub too. I had a lot of respect for Putin, and for what he has accomplished, but I am not going to delude myself anymore about his inextricable ties with the Chabad. In the USA, every new president stands in front of the AIPAC banner. That should tell you enough about this person. The USA is nothing more than the private army, the butt boy, of the Zionists and the gangster club of the Ch Lub. And that's how they are all in it together; why should they give a rat's ass about the people? People are fodder for the fights between them. Why do you think this war business drags on for so long... look at Blackrock (Fink, zionist), look at the entire military industry that the USA thrives on. How much money was sucked out of EU? Every week I saw it, bilions and billions. Just check the pedigree of Ursula von der Leyen, unchosen head of the EU Commission in Brussels. Man... it's such a sick world. And yes, it's about time we call a spade a spade.
In the 2009-10 timeframe, I foresaw the current Ukraine debacle. Setting was a funeral home. There was an exchange of a bag of money and a "golden whistle' for a dead soldier in woodland fatigues with a broken left ankle. Rules based order, NATO. The other impactful vision was a new Pearl Harbor something on par with the Bronze Age collapse involving trade, energy, mass migration and finance.. a major attack on a "Senate City." Istanbul or Rome? The next kerfluffle may be over control of Arctic trade routes and resources.
Thanks for the insights, Replenish. Interesting... could it be London with its City of London in it, a bullwark of finance where many corporations are registered? FYI, the country of Holland was recently registered in the City of London by its King Willem Alexander. NL is no longer a country, but a corporation. Its beneficiary is Mark Rutte. IMO, this move may lend a form of 'protection' against invasion to the NL, but I may be wrong - that is to say, I have not delved enough to find a satisfying answer. Probably not that protection was the intention, of course, but the real intention is not clear to me yet. All I know is that NL is now registered as a legal business entity there. That said, the USA is said to be a corporation too, but not sure where it is incorporated. DE hahaha?
" ... the country of Holland was recently registered in the City of London by its King Willem Alexander. NL is no longer a country, but a corporation."
As another FYI, most, if not all, countries have been registered, but probably more likely as corporate states rather than as corporations (apparently there is a difference, but I'll be damned if I know how or why), if not in the City of London, then with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
City of London may have figured in another a priori episode pre-Covid showing English fellow in 19th century garb checking his pocket watch while numerous teapots are brewing at reception desk. Scene switches to warehouse where worker throws bales of waterlogged tea from teetering pile. Back at reception, secretary dumps out stale water from flower vase which doubles as nuclear cooling tower. Timing to pull off planned events to mitigate collapse and the nuclear option.. how to provide liquidity?
In the Info Wars AstraZeneca/Sputnik is better and safer than the deleterious Western AstraZeneca shots distributed throughout Europe.
In the Info Wars RFK, Jr. is determined to fight the deep state and end wars, but is a diehard Zionist who doesn't believe genocide is being committed against the Palestinians. In fact, his running mate happens to be a techno/fasist whose charity funded Event 201.
In the Info wars, Mercola's bank account was frozen for opposing the official security narrative, yet he's an avid supporter of
RFK, Jr. an IDF shill.
Interesting how populations are being fragmented into diverse ideologies but eventually are all herded into one biosecurity surveillance state "chopping block."
You need to show me proof of your statement RFK Jr is a Zionist ... that’s ridiculous and because you say so doesn’t make it so.... so offer up some solid evidence ... or shut up 🤐 😡🤬
Why would Charlotte need to show you proof of his zionist and 'anti-semitic' statements? If you have an opinion of him, you'd presumably be familiar with his public statements and stances. But is he your dad? It's like you're being offended on his behalf.
Even if you'd prefer to call it mass premeditated murder, that still falls under the term 'genocide' too. It's like some stone age tribe of evil bandits with their hands on modern day technologies. We watch them gloating on their videos as they kill men, women, and children out of pure bloodlust.
Then I suggest you lookup other word-wide phenomena like CBDC, green madness and ESGs, mass migration with islam promotion. Be prepared for another disappointment.
Here's my take on CBDC - there are a few words about Russia there too:
I've heard of 'the Saker' but never read. Just downloaded four books of his. I notice the last one, the most recent, 'the Saker IV' is over 600 pages long. My god. Any advice as to which I should read first to learn something of why 'the Saker' is so often mentioned?
There's no need to read any of it. Saker was the go to blog that informed us that Putin was playing 5D chess with the West. They always had an explanation as to why Russia was importing immigrants, never exposing the Nuremburg Trial errors, never exposing the Covid scam or why he congratulated Biden for his 2020 election 'victory'. The Edward Slavsquat and Rolo Slavskiy substacks exposed the Saker for the con game he was playing.
The Edward Slavsquat and Rolo Slavskiy substacks exposed the Saker for the con game he was playing.
So what con game was that, essentially? Conning people into believing a falsehood? Or conning people into believing he was truly knowledgeable? Or what?
I looked at the saker sometimes. Last I remember a year or so ago, he said he was essentially shutting it all down. Or at least he personally was out, whichever. Off to some other endeavor.
It was a polite and socially graceful place. As annoying as it can be, I tend to prefer people saying what they really think.
Many thanks to Riley and Rolo, whose revolutionary analysis are getting better by the day, for helping to open our eyes to reality. You are indeed a great duo.
Thankfully, I'm still in good health, but I regret having received all the vaccines I have since I was born for all the trumped-up and bogus viral and bacteriological hazards. There is ample evidence of better health outcomes for people who have not ever received vaccines - any vaccines! For almost the entire 3-4 million years of human existence (if taken from the Australopithecine ancestor), we have not only survived but seem to have done pretty well even without the interference of Rockefeller petrochemical pharmaceutical medicine and its botched artificial modulation of immunity, and so I'm more than a little inclined to believe we don't need any vaccination - and would, more than likely, be better off without them.
Thanks for the link. I generally do agree with the writer's overall thesis, and in a way I believe it may be a generally more valid way of looking at health and disease. Life and health is not at war, nor is it under attack.
But I'm most definitely NOT in the 'viruses aren't real' (VAR) camp. I find the "never been proven" arguments to be misconceived, misunderstanding or in denial of the technical refinements of the scientific research pipeline. At best, the arguments betray insufficient appreciation of the evolution in understanding and the hierarchical nature of apprehension of phenomena as the technology applied has advanced. At worst, they are a deliberate attempt to mislead and disarm people against prospective, real attacks from engineered hazards that the criminals with the agenda of eliminating the majority and establishing total control of the rest will deploy.
On the other hand, nor do I ascribe to the viruses are (exclusively) pathogens mischaracterization either, which is promulgated by The Science™ disciples of the official narrative - the same criminals with the agenda of eliminating the majority and establishing total control of the rest. This is all simply another case of the adage that the best way to control the opposition is to lead it.
Both of these relatively recent (since COVID-19, at least as far as I've been aware) ideologically-extreme positions have arisen as components of the larger program to corral resistance to enforced medical procedures into either The Science™, or into the VAR extremes, and the associated imbuing of adherents with religious zeal is most revealing, as it is, quite frankly, disgusting.
Actually there's one argument that made the case for me.
They ran the viral culture experiment with and without virus.
They got the same results. It's from the strong antibiotics and antifungals they use to clean the culture and "isolate" the virus. Guess what looks like spiky viruses? Dead cells. Sometimes they call them exosomes too.
Anyway I'm not worried about it either way. Even if viruses do exist, I've yet to see any of them proven to be deadly as claimed. In fact they have been used to cover up for other issues, like polio for DDT.
One day we will be able to talk about it without being shut out, just like they do with carbon climate change and other rigged fields.
You've got a positive, fair -minded attitude which is laudable.
"They ran the viral culture experiment with and without virus."
I won't press you on this, but just bear in mind that, without knowing the particulars of the "viral culture experiment" you're referring to, there's almost certainly not a single lab in the world that needs to "culture" a virus in order to be able to identify it or the traces of viral presence, activity, and the consequences of it. Unfortunately, terminology such as "culture" is borrowed from bacteriology, and bacteria, which are forms of life and can be cultured, with colonies of differently-colored bacteria growing on agar gel, for example from a sample of saliva (I've even done it myself, many years ago). Give the bacteria suitable support including their nutritional requirements and growth medium, and culturing is possible. However, with viruses, things are not in any way as simple and straightforward. First of all, it's not even clear, nor unequivocal that viruses are living things, by various definitions of the term 'life', nor that they are a discrete lifeform. They don't even eat, for Pete's sake, and they're even more obligatorily parasitical than the most hopelessly-dependent parasite. The consequence is that different thinking, frames of reference, and approaches are required when trying to get a handle on them.
I think of viruses as a broad class of intercellular communications mechanisms - it's a functional definition, rather than a species definition. It's no doubt ultimately an insufficient definition to satisfy all the contingencies that research in the phenomena would encounter, but I'm neither a virologist nor even a microbiologist of any accomplishment or description (I'm not even a biologist, heck, I'm not even employed in any way!). I'm just this dude on the interwebs.
Anyway, I really don't want this to spin off into a broader and arguably peripheral microbiological discussion. But I do want to say that I agree with your non-fanatical stance. The bottom line is that, just like so much or all that we're being faced with, we just don't fundamentally, comprehensively know nor can we know, so we shouldn't be too belligerent, especially about ideologically-appropriated topics.
I concur, Jack, but I'd go further and state that all governments belong to the same international criminal syndicate, they are criminals, and for that reason trusting is completely out of the question.
The problem then is simple, but certainly not easy: how do we remove(*) governments?
(*) I'm not asking about applying the electoral process. By 'remove,' I really do mean REMOVE.
Well for one denying them any legitimacy. i.e. not voting.
But the time has come that we should start exterminating them and their Oligarchs who use them as a control tool.
The democracy BS must be exposed but people have been heavily indoctrinated into this agenda and that is very difficult to change and contradict the belief system.
You and I have struck a first blow. I haven't worked for four years so that I won't incur an income tax liability. But that also means I haven't received more transnational financier-banker corporate owners' central bank phony money to buy more of the crap from the government's transnational financier-banker corporate owner bosses' factories, so the owners won't make profits and the governments won't skim more taxes from the sale of those useless goods.
You and I are doing what we should be doing, and what we all should have been doing 40, 50, 60, 100 years ago, when collectively we could have done so and it really would have made a difference. I fear the opportunity to have realized this, and acted accordingly, as meaningfully as this truly would have been, has long passed, alas, and what we have coming to us now might be unavoidable.
" ... the centuries-old class system, in which the populace was kept in line with crumbs from the rulers' table.
Some got a few more, others a lot less. The number of crumbs dictated your status in life, and kept you subservient to the system.
There was no material gain from dissent. What psychologists called oppositional behaviour was easily offset with political systems in which people were "nudged" by envy or fear.
The social structure was constructed on crumbs: exchanging your crumbs for new ones each year; "keeping up with the Joneses"; earning the dough to send children to a fine school to learn the inside track of crumb collecting, to network with the scions of the top crumb gatherers."
They figured-out and applied a really effective slave system a long time ago, and since then they've only just sharpened and honed their approach with applied, weaponized psychology and digital technology.
But if the Russian SMO has taught us anything it's what the great seer, sage and philosopher, Mike Tyson of The Iron, once taught us as well: everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth. Fancy-schmancy weapon systems get shredded by overwhelming artillery as thoroughly as ever a column of blunderbuss-welding fusiliers did, and high-tech mech burns just as readily as timber powder wagons.
Right. And all this AI- bs is only the next bubble. It cannot replace people nor can it serve as a fake maschine- god for people to believe in. It has it's uses, but all this money invested in peoples brains instead would have resulted in much better results (for humanity).
Blimey, this is so true! Indeed it would have, instead they've fallen over themselves to degrade peoples brains and capacity for thinking: the damned education systems, first of Anglophone countries, but following on the heels, those of most NATO-aligned nations, too.
I don't have patience or taste any longer for science fiction (I can no longer look past the obvious and sinister predictive programming dimension), but when I did, I read Dune, Dune Messiah, and Children of Dune. The Butlerian Jihad of the Dune universe comes to mind, and the resolution, “Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind” which became the central commandment of civilization and lead to the supreme commandment: “Thou shalt not disfigure the soul.” In this most illuminated of prescience, at least, I really wish life would imitate art.
I had been wondering for some time why many, if not most people, seem to be empty shells.
I was well aware of the de-humanising impact of MSM intellectual garbage and moral sewerage on unsuspecting human souls.
I had not realised the extent to which Netflix addiction might have progressively removed the stuffing from many people, reducing them to empty shells, who need to feed their addiction to fill the emptiness.
These people might appear to be happy, but what is true happiness?
"I had not realised the extent to which Netflix addiction might have progressively removed the stuffing from many people, reducing them to empty shells, who need to feed their addiction to fill the emptiness."
Looky looky! The co-founder and first CEO of Netflix was Marc Bernays Randolph, is directly related to Edward Bernays, and hence also to Sigmund Freud, both of whom developed paradigms of psychology and propaganda, for examination and exploitation of the masses!
So what's real happiness/intelligence and who is really happy/intelligent?
Perhaps it is best to just enjoy life as much as possible regardless, as it is short.
Many people's apparently flimsy definition of happiness is concerning though.
Are they really happy, or just making the most of the scraps of life?
What defines their happiness?
I am not talking about financial status.
Many financially comfortable people and supposedly intelligent professionals and academics, seem to be trapped in some kind of vacuum, incapable of any significant independent thought or moral judgement.
I really appreciate your rendering of the general state of mind or psyche of society. It's a functional way to regard it.
"Maybe at the end of the day practical intelligence is the best strategy, because the sad truth is, the practicals tend to be happier, in general, than the abstracts ..."
While I agree with your point, at least I do if we were to set 'happiness' as the metric. But I've personally long abandoned the assignment of 'happiness' as the primary criterion, or even any effectual measure of worth for an existence and/or a life well-lived, nor especially for the thinking, sovereign individual who would presume agency in the world. Animals/humans can be drugged into a blithely-contented state - a-la Brave New World - and remain 'happy' even when their immediate environment is ablaze and extinction from fiery dissolution is upon them. Pain itself can readily be palliated.
Aux, perhaps it is remove, as well as prevent from occurring again. Removing is one thing, but how do you prevent this criminal syndicate from aggregating again? (unless you mean the same by 'removing.') They've been doing it for centuries. Psychopathy and neurosis are hallmarks of this bottomfeeding syndicate. How do you eradicate these traits from humanity, to cleanse it once and forgood of these parasitic members? Selection for elimination based on genetic testing? Maybe already while still in the uterus? These solutions seem too drastic, and too eugenicist to be practical. Thus, I think we're hosed, with these ever-present predators amongst us. They will always exist and attract minor varieties of psychopathic neurotics to execute their plans for them (governments and the like). Eventually, humanity as a species will be herded off the cliff by these powerful and uninspiring misfits. (Give me some hope by explaining it ain't so... :-) )
Zonder, I've enjoyed reading your comments and am grateful for your generosity in sharing them. What is more, I've got more than a hunch that you're the kind of person I could sit at a table in a pub for hours to discuss all these topics over pints of good ale - or whatever tipple, or nibble, you're most partial to.
Even were it genuinely committed and actually did accomplish the greatest good for the greatest amount of people, I am convinced that government - that is, a permanent body of professional politicians and bureaucrats in an indissoluble institution with the supreme authority over the people and resources of a land - is at best completely superfluous. More explicitly, it is a parasitic and malignant existence. Were politicians themselves moral and rational, they would understand this themselves and they would remove themselves. But they are not moral, and if they are at all rational, they most definitely are not benevolent.
There is very little scope for, and very few circumstances where the kind of governance we might expect of a government is appropriate and necessary because, by and large, a community is completely capable of spontaneous self-organisation, gathering and allocating of resources as necessary, and providing all the services that it requires to function, accordingly governance occurs naturally and does not require forced imposition. In those few occasions a dedicated company of decision-makers is required (for example, disaster mitigation, threat of hostile invasion, etc.) any viable community would make available and outfit one, then dispense with it entirely when the need has passed.
I could elaborate, but I've already hogged so much of the real estate on Riley's comments page.
Yeah, it's good to have these stimulating "conversations." But I have to stop hogging the Riley space too, and back to my own substack again. Maybe we should all surprise Slasquat with a visit to his dacha where we can have long and inspiring discussions around that lovely bbq of his... -With thanks to all for this pleasant discourse. Until we meet again. :-)
Thank you very much, Riley. I don't seem to be able to get around to reading all your articles as soon as you publish them - actually, I only read one in about ten when I do get around to reading them. But whenever I've read an article, I wonder what the hell have I been doing instead of reading your articles.
In these days of Fifth Generation Warfare, while Oceania is at war with Eurasia (Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia) and East Asia at the same time, your perspective and criticism is essential, as important almost as is oxygen. And puppies.
But Putin and Russia: what a bloody mindf@%k! I understand some rudimentary game theory, so I can make arguments for using the same dirty tricks (biomedical-surveillance, CBDC, injections, 4IR, all of that kind of ordure) as your purported 'enemies' are, but from your reporting, Russia seems to be going about it in a sneakier way; being the only adult in the room, on the one hand, and displaying the same deranged psychopathy on the other. What's the real game here? Russia must be as pwned as U.S.+U.K.+Europe are by the same transnational financier-corporation owners, because they're all playing by the same playbook. BRICS was, after all, devised by Goldman Sachs' and GS former economist Jim O’Neill, so perhaps we really shouldn't be surprised. No, what we should be is morose.
Thanks again, Riley. I'm sorry for not paying. I haven't worked since COVID-19 and the deadly genetic injection slurry mandates. When they wanted us to believe they lifted the mandates (they never really lifted the mandates, because they'll have many more shots they'll coerce us into taking when the brand new Moderna factories they're building on all continents across the world come on-line and start pumping-out new injections), it was too late. I knew enough to decide that I wouldn't be paying taxes any longer because I couldn't knowingly abet government crime by providing it with material support, nor would I be complicit in state-mediated and executed crime. That means I'm really poor.
Sarcasm? That's okay. Actually, I hope it is, because I'm definitely neither a patriot - 'my' country is a preposterous fiction, an obsequious vassal state, a Satrapy of the U.S.-NATO, its values are imbecilic, and 'my' people are even greater fools than I am - and were you to know me personally, were you familiar with me and my background, how despite everything I've done and achieved, all the places I've been, and yet I've still managed to amount to absolutely nothing, the most abjectly inconsequential non-entityimaginable, you would also know that I cannot at all, in any way, be even remotely wise.
Yeah, Putin's Russian flavored variant of AstraZeneca's chemical slurry makes for much better clot-shots, to protect people against a virus which has never even been proven to exist. How can we refuse it? 🤣 Thanks, Riley!
My grandfather had occasion to visit Poland back in the 1950s-60s, but not Russia. He would come back home and at times would refer to us grandkids by saying "my little Sputnik". But calling a deadly vaccine "Sputnik" is an affront to Russian space exploration. Oh yes, all vaccines are deadly.
Assuming you are in Russia Klim, and saying that even if we be careful not to skate on thin ice, we still do not know where we stand.
Years ago, a friend dragged me down the latin mass rabbit hole, on one occasion.
Thankfully I survived due to my interest in architecture, stained glass windows, art and sculpture!
When I returned to the surface, I was none the wiser about the appeal of latin masses!
I regard my friend to be an enlightened person, and attribute his inexplicable addiction to latin masses, to his Italian roots.
Reportedly, the FBI recently identified latin mass attendees, as extremists.
I tend to agree, but my perspective and the FBI's, are undoubtedly different!
Wonder if my attendance at a mass years ago was recorded, and I might be detained and questioned sometime in the future!
If you should for some inexplicable reason, engage in the extreme act of attending a latin mass, wear a credible disguise and look out for trench coats!
To me, this seems like a ''Special Vaccine Operation.'' Slow-rollin' for Maximum devastation. Sweet pups, 'squat! I probably don't need to tell you, ''puppy shots'' are just as 'safe and effective' as the human iterations.
Riley is always entertaining and informative...since 'substacks' became a thing, I have had to winnow down the many that I've subscribed to...but this place hits just the right spot. Love those pups as well as the local feel. A tip of the glass to everyone.
I do have a brilliant idea Riley: why don't ask Rubber Balone to make a fundraising to save Russians children from the evil hands of WHO? He could show them his brevets collection into Mrna research, like Raoult did in France in 2020? You know, those insiders are so useful when it comes to explain the tricky psy ops to the herds... And people like them, they tell them how and what to think, this is all so convenient! You know what? They could all choke themselves with their lies and hang themselves in the closet where they come from. The only regret I have is that folks don't get the move, even the more alert. They all vote for the experts. Who paid this cloaque of thieves and murderers you think? Religious people believed in « conversions » from the state or the institutions players... They are all pointing in the same open sky digital gulag direction, and they are all in bed with WHO's technocracrats, backed by EVERY state representative, every NGO, every corporation, all the zombie propaganda, whatever they say or declare on the social media circus of operations. I'd like things goes faster now. Let them have their fucking nazo weirdos world with all their supporters. Quick. The only problem I see is that they won't leave us alone playing in the countryside with puppies, animals and trees and grass and cow and flowers. Until we destroy them. My last point is, how?
"I don’t know why Moscow and the Collective West are arch-enemies—they’re so similar.
Just my words to everybody who wants to hear them. I never will understand why Russia and the west is on war - they are following the same agenda.
Lovely puppets. It is a pity that I can't smuggle one to Germany because of the sanctions.
Kooka, there is no real war between Moscow and the West, but if Putin plays his position too meekly - the West would mercilessly get rid of him.
To me the most plausible explanation is this:
imagine the world as Chicago and a mafia in its heyday. Chicago is run by a few powerful players (mafia families) who have the city split into districts where they run their organized crime. Although rules, territories, pecking orders are set, these players are only human - they are greedy, petty, jealous etc. So fight over Ukraine is not real war between West & Russia, but merely a mafia turf war partly about Ukraine but more importantly about abundance of Russian resources.
Regardless of their quarrels one thing these players fully agree on - regular folk are useless eaters who have to be kept on a short leash and exploited as much as possible. That is why West, Zelensky or Putin could not care less how many Ukrainians or Russians or eventually Poles or others die in this skirmish. That is why all terrible things are happening all over the world at the same time, at the same pace - CBDC, vax, green madness and ESGs, mass migration etc.
This Chicago mafia allegory is almost certainly closer to reality than any other description. There's nothing really to add or remove, except maybe that mafia or any organized crime is state-sponsored and sanctioned. There is a bigger game at play, and the players of that game are playing the organized crime, intelligence (C.I.A., F.B.I. M.I.5/6, etc.), attorneys and law courts like the pawns and chess pieces they really are. You're bang-on the money about what regular folk mean to them. We're just witless NPCs, automatons incapable of agency that they farm for taxation revenue but who'll throw their own bodies into the fire on command.
The more you think about it, the more you realize that this is so, right... it's a cold eye-opener we're experiencing. In a way it's good to have this eye-opener, but at the same time useless if there is nothing we can do to change things. To me it seems that self-destruction is built in the human, by means of the mental disorders of psychopathy and neurosis. It's just a matter of when, not if, this self-destruction takes place. It's really too bad that psychopaths can exert such pressure on 'normal' people to do their bidding. What would be the driver there...? Fear? Money? Status? Hoping to be one of the boys? Laziness? I mean, it would be so easy to resist the psychopathic impetus, no? Seems to me, but who am I to speak for those that are under the spell of the psychopathic mindset. Therefore, recognizing and staying out of the cross-fires is the best you can do, under the acknowledged circumstances. Thanks for Riley's efforts, and grateful for the insightful comments by the contributors here. :-)
You can try to game the zoo rules. You must be creative though. Use their prison rules against them. It's effort, but it works, at least a bit.
E.g. avoid taxes, buy local, avoid Amazon, use wellfare even if you don't need it... game the system, baby
The masses have always been an exploitable resource for the unrepentant 'elites'. That phenomenon is the basis for the "masses = slave cattle" meme, and is more than apt.
That said, any one of us could effect significant changes if we were willing to do the needful. It's instructive that so few of us do our own FBI has to step in and provide incentives and support to even meet their quotas.
But another more accessible change you can make with the eye-opener is to adjust your level of collaboration with the regime, whatever that looks like for you.
Very well said, sadly... that's how it is. They're all in on it, and they don't give a rat's ass about the people. It's all show, if you think they care about the people. It's pure psychopathy and we're witnessing the psychopaths doing their thing again, just like it's been going on for centuries. Unstoppable.
Perfect analogy.
Nonetheless Kooka, the sexualizing of children here in Western Babylon is beyond disgusting and it's real.
There is less of that in Russia for sure (same applies to the so-called muslim world BTW), but only less. Regardless of how you look at this, it should not delude you into excusing Russia/Putin from everything else. Even within Russia itself people are blinded by ravaging patriotisms (because of the war in Ukraine) and willfully explain away everything that unequivocally proves that Putin is part of the global "Chicago" cartel.
Klim,
It doesn't delude me into excusing anything about Poutine, be reassured, otherwise, I wouldn't be as frequently on that slavsquating substack. I am very sad that the pretense of Russia being a beacon of traditional values are overdue.
The fact is that I am, as a French, witnessing a total collapse of not just traditional values, but of our humanity. Our ruling class is pedocriminal. Have you heard for instance about the case of that judge who was selling his 12 years old daughter on the web, promising the right to sodomize her, piss on her and who is free with an electronic bracelet while his wife is still a judge? do you want the sources? Have you heard about a so-called président of our country who had been abused when he was 14 years old by a 39 years creature (was it a male or a female?). Our ruling class is truly pedocriminal like in Belgium (remeber the Dutroux affair?). I can give you a lot of proof that I am not exaggerating in any way. Now, sex is going to be teach in schools like it has stated this year in Belgium. Last year, before it has been made official, in St Étienne, 10 years old kids had been told in school, that a woman could suck the dick of a guy and lick his balls for pleasure. In Bordeaux, a trans event had been organized without the consent of the parents and when they contested, they were met by the police. I could go on and on Klim, it is now official and called EVRAS (Éducation à la Vie Relationnelle, Affective et Sexuelle) and even though most pedopsychiatrists consider it a wreckage for young minds, contesting it is an offense.
Would Russians, Belarussians accept that?
Respect.
This is not a Russian-Western power struggle, but a war of the Jewish Masonic "elite" against us, the inhabitants of the planet. It is a complete takeover and genocide...
p.s. Ida, I hate to point it out, but both Putin and Zelensky are good friends with the Chabad Lubavitch, which you probably already know too. We have to accept the dire truth that's in plain sight. It would not surprise me if Ukraine is captured by the Chabad, once leveled. All paid for with bags and bags full of money continually sucked out of EU the last few years, as "support for Ukraine". In any case, my bubble is burst on the whole Russia / BRICS development, even though they act more civilized than these braindead morons in the West with their rainbows, tranny-ism and pedo-ism. But so be it... bubbles always burst. Next!
This is such a taboo subject - which is exactly why we should attack it. With gusto, even.
Zelensky (Jewish; Ashkenazi? more than likely; Zionist? almost certainly) has done very well indeed from his engagement by Kolomoiskyi (Ashkenazi, Zionist), Victoria Nuland (Ashkenazi, Zionist) and the U.S. Deep State (many Ashkenazis, Zionists) as the treacherous toxic gnome figurehead "Defender of Ukrainian Democracy." There are now two-year old reports of a 1.4 billion dollar reward windfall for his villainy, villas in Tuscany and the exclusive Como lake, Italy, and the fact-cheka all deny it so it must be true, that he's also got property in south Florida worth tens of millions, and finally a multimillion dollar home for his parents in Israel that was purchased years ago, because nothing says "I stand with Ukraine" more emphatically than buying a luxury "life boat" in the country you really minister to.
Oh, but as per The Atlantic, February 28, 2022: "... the Ukrainian president captivates the world with his bravery ...", and The Forward, March 1, 2022: "As a Jew, it is impossible not to feel proud of the courage, dignity, and defiance shown by Zelenskyy."
Years ago, in the USA, Sen. Daniel Inouye already spoke of the shadow govt. We, people in the USA, used to only whisper to each other of this taboo subject. It was so damn taboo. Sick really, when you think about it. Now it is pretty much out in the open. In Holland, the alt media is pretty open about these skunks. The world is run by these psychopaths, and they're all doing each other's bidding. If you think that Trump the crypto-zionist is going to save you, think again. If you think Putin will save you, think again. Sure, he's got good manners and rejects the idiocy of pedo-ism and all the other insane isms, but he's in the pocket of the Ch Lub too. I had a lot of respect for Putin, and for what he has accomplished, but I am not going to delude myself anymore about his inextricable ties with the Chabad. In the USA, every new president stands in front of the AIPAC banner. That should tell you enough about this person. The USA is nothing more than the private army, the butt boy, of the Zionists and the gangster club of the Ch Lub. And that's how they are all in it together; why should they give a rat's ass about the people? People are fodder for the fights between them. Why do you think this war business drags on for so long... look at Blackrock (Fink, zionist), look at the entire military industry that the USA thrives on. How much money was sucked out of EU? Every week I saw it, bilions and billions. Just check the pedigree of Ursula von der Leyen, unchosen head of the EU Commission in Brussels. Man... it's such a sick world. And yes, it's about time we call a spade a spade.

In the 2009-10 timeframe, I foresaw the current Ukraine debacle. Setting was a funeral home. There was an exchange of a bag of money and a "golden whistle' for a dead soldier in woodland fatigues with a broken left ankle. Rules based order, NATO. The other impactful vision was a new Pearl Harbor something on par with the Bronze Age collapse involving trade, energy, mass migration and finance.. a major attack on a "Senate City." Istanbul or Rome? The next kerfluffle may be over control of Arctic trade routes and resources.
Thanks for the insights, Replenish. Interesting... could it be London with its City of London in it, a bullwark of finance where many corporations are registered? FYI, the country of Holland was recently registered in the City of London by its King Willem Alexander. NL is no longer a country, but a corporation. Its beneficiary is Mark Rutte. IMO, this move may lend a form of 'protection' against invasion to the NL, but I may be wrong - that is to say, I have not delved enough to find a satisfying answer. Probably not that protection was the intention, of course, but the real intention is not clear to me yet. All I know is that NL is now registered as a legal business entity there. That said, the USA is said to be a corporation too, but not sure where it is incorporated. DE hahaha?
" ... the country of Holland was recently registered in the City of London by its King Willem Alexander. NL is no longer a country, but a corporation."
As another FYI, most, if not all, countries have been registered, but probably more likely as corporate states rather than as corporations (apparently there is a difference, but I'll be damned if I know how or why), if not in the City of London, then with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
City of London may have figured in another a priori episode pre-Covid showing English fellow in 19th century garb checking his pocket watch while numerous teapots are brewing at reception desk. Scene switches to warehouse where worker throws bales of waterlogged tea from teetering pile. Back at reception, secretary dumps out stale water from flower vase which doubles as nuclear cooling tower. Timing to pull off planned events to mitigate collapse and the nuclear option.. how to provide liquidity?
Of course! This is all a play on their part against us!
That's where the mental disorders of psychopathy and neurosis work in full force.
''Enemies'' keep the banksters rolling in dough.

The minutes of the wise men of Zion! All questions answered...
Thanks for sharing your perspective Riley. And YAY puppies! Hope they all find happy homes.
In the Info Wars AstraZeneca/Sputnik is better and safer than the deleterious Western AstraZeneca shots distributed throughout Europe.
In the Info Wars RFK, Jr. is determined to fight the deep state and end wars, but is a diehard Zionist who doesn't believe genocide is being committed against the Palestinians. In fact, his running mate happens to be a techno/fasist whose charity funded Event 201.
In the Info wars, Mercola's bank account was frozen for opposing the official security narrative, yet he's an avid supporter of
RFK, Jr. an IDF shill.
Interesting how populations are being fragmented into diverse ideologies but eventually are all herded into one biosecurity surveillance state "chopping block."
You need to show me proof of your statement RFK Jr is a Zionist ... that’s ridiculous and because you say so doesn’t make it so.... so offer up some solid evidence ... or shut up 🤐 😡🤬

Why would Charlotte need to show you proof of his zionist and 'anti-semitic' statements? If you have an opinion of him, you'd presumably be familiar with his public statements and stances. But is he your dad? It's like you're being offended on his behalf.
😁😆😅🤣😂
He doesn't believe genocide is being committed against the Palestinians simply because genocide isn't being committed against them.
What do you call mass systematic slaughter?
Before you argue with a Zionist.
https://nevertrustawizard.substack.com/p/before-you-argue-with-a-zionist
Exactly!
Even if you'd prefer to call it mass premeditated murder, that still falls under the term 'genocide' too. It's like some stone age tribe of evil bandits with their hands on modern day technologies. We watch them gloating on their videos as they kill men, women, and children out of pure bloodlust.
the Russian attitude to Covid is the biggest single disappointing thing I've learned about my great hope: Russia. It is really bad. Really.
Then I suggest you lookup other word-wide phenomena like CBDC, green madness and ESGs, mass migration with islam promotion. Be prepared for another disappointment.
Here's my take on CBDC - there are a few words about Russia there too:
https://open.substack.com/pub/klim/p/what-defines-cbdc-central-bank-digital
Thank you for that. Very illuminating. I feel I know something after reading that.
I wasn't unaware, though, that Russia has other disappointments. Just I find the covid thing to be the major one. :)
That's when I stopped reading the Saker blog.
I've heard of 'the Saker' but never read. Just downloaded four books of his. I notice the last one, the most recent, 'the Saker IV' is over 600 pages long. My god. Any advice as to which I should read first to learn something of why 'the Saker' is so often mentioned?
There's no need to read any of it. Saker was the go to blog that informed us that Putin was playing 5D chess with the West. They always had an explanation as to why Russia was importing immigrants, never exposing the Nuremburg Trial errors, never exposing the Covid scam or why he congratulated Biden for his 2020 election 'victory'. The Edward Slavsquat and Rolo Slavskiy substacks exposed the Saker for the con game he was playing.
Before rolo/Riley was Marko marjanovic from anti empire who first " Ssw the light". He is one of the greatest analysts ever.
The Edward Slavsquat and Rolo Slavskiy substacks exposed the Saker for the con game he was playing.
So what con game was that, essentially? Conning people into believing a falsehood? Or conning people into believing he was truly knowledgeable? Or what?
Ah.. that's a relief. So what is the end of the story? This 'Saker' is still about? Still writing with the same slant?
I looked at the saker sometimes. Last I remember a year or so ago, he said he was essentially shutting it all down. Or at least he personally was out, whichever. Off to some other endeavor.
It was a polite and socially graceful place. As annoying as it can be, I tend to prefer people saying what they really think.
Could well be, but I hope not. :)
Many thanks to Riley and Rolo, whose revolutionary analysis are getting better by the day, for helping to open our eyes to reality. You are indeed a great duo.
Anyone who promotes those vaccines to treat a flu are full of shit, period.
This is nowadays extending to other vaccines too, as measles etc are basically flu like illnesses that were hyped up by assholes like this SOB.
🤡
Thankfully, I'm still in good health, but I regret having received all the vaccines I have since I was born for all the trumped-up and bogus viral and bacteriological hazards. There is ample evidence of better health outcomes for people who have not ever received vaccines - any vaccines! For almost the entire 3-4 million years of human existence (if taken from the Australopithecine ancestor), we have not only survived but seem to have done pretty well even without the interference of Rockefeller petrochemical pharmaceutical medicine and its botched artificial modulation of immunity, and so I'm more than a little inclined to believe we don't need any vaccination - and would, more than likely, be better off without them.
Yep, https://barn0346.substack.com/p/life-is-not-a-battle
They turned health into a war.
Thanks for the link. I generally do agree with the writer's overall thesis, and in a way I believe it may be a generally more valid way of looking at health and disease. Life and health is not at war, nor is it under attack.
But I'm most definitely NOT in the 'viruses aren't real' (VAR) camp. I find the "never been proven" arguments to be misconceived, misunderstanding or in denial of the technical refinements of the scientific research pipeline. At best, the arguments betray insufficient appreciation of the evolution in understanding and the hierarchical nature of apprehension of phenomena as the technology applied has advanced. At worst, they are a deliberate attempt to mislead and disarm people against prospective, real attacks from engineered hazards that the criminals with the agenda of eliminating the majority and establishing total control of the rest will deploy.
On the other hand, nor do I ascribe to the viruses are (exclusively) pathogens mischaracterization either, which is promulgated by The Science™ disciples of the official narrative - the same criminals with the agenda of eliminating the majority and establishing total control of the rest. This is all simply another case of the adage that the best way to control the opposition is to lead it.
Both of these relatively recent (since COVID-19, at least as far as I've been aware) ideologically-extreme positions have arisen as components of the larger program to corral resistance to enforced medical procedures into either The Science™, or into the VAR extremes, and the associated imbuing of adherents with religious zeal is most revealing, as it is, quite frankly, disgusting.
Actually there's one argument that made the case for me.
They ran the viral culture experiment with and without virus.
They got the same results. It's from the strong antibiotics and antifungals they use to clean the culture and "isolate" the virus. Guess what looks like spiky viruses? Dead cells. Sometimes they call them exosomes too.
Anyway I'm not worried about it either way. Even if viruses do exist, I've yet to see any of them proven to be deadly as claimed. In fact they have been used to cover up for other issues, like polio for DDT.
One day we will be able to talk about it without being shut out, just like they do with carbon climate change and other rigged fields.
You've got a positive, fair -minded attitude which is laudable.
"They ran the viral culture experiment with and without virus."
I won't press you on this, but just bear in mind that, without knowing the particulars of the "viral culture experiment" you're referring to, there's almost certainly not a single lab in the world that needs to "culture" a virus in order to be able to identify it or the traces of viral presence, activity, and the consequences of it. Unfortunately, terminology such as "culture" is borrowed from bacteriology, and bacteria, which are forms of life and can be cultured, with colonies of differently-colored bacteria growing on agar gel, for example from a sample of saliva (I've even done it myself, many years ago). Give the bacteria suitable support including their nutritional requirements and growth medium, and culturing is possible. However, with viruses, things are not in any way as simple and straightforward. First of all, it's not even clear, nor unequivocal that viruses are living things, by various definitions of the term 'life', nor that they are a discrete lifeform. They don't even eat, for Pete's sake, and they're even more obligatorily parasitical than the most hopelessly-dependent parasite. The consequence is that different thinking, frames of reference, and approaches are required when trying to get a handle on them.
I think of viruses as a broad class of intercellular communications mechanisms - it's a functional definition, rather than a species definition. It's no doubt ultimately an insufficient definition to satisfy all the contingencies that research in the phenomena would encounter, but I'm neither a virologist nor even a microbiologist of any accomplishment or description (I'm not even a biologist, heck, I'm not even employed in any way!). I'm just this dude on the interwebs.
Anyway, I really don't want this to spin off into a broader and arguably peripheral microbiological discussion. But I do want to say that I agree with your non-fanatical stance. The bottom line is that, just like so much or all that we're being faced with, we just don't fundamentally, comprehensively know nor can we know, so we shouldn't be too belligerent, especially about ideologically-appropriated topics.
No Government can be trusted. I don't care from which country.
I concur, Jack, but I'd go further and state that all governments belong to the same international criminal syndicate, they are criminals, and for that reason trusting is completely out of the question.
The problem then is simple, but certainly not easy: how do we remove(*) governments?
(*) I'm not asking about applying the electoral process. By 'remove,' I really do mean REMOVE.
Well for one denying them any legitimacy. i.e. not voting.
But the time has come that we should start exterminating them and their Oligarchs who use them as a control tool.
The democracy BS must be exposed but people have been heavily indoctrinated into this agenda and that is very difficult to change and contradict the belief system.
Most people in "the West" appear to be more or less happy.
Enough for the basics and some extras.
There is no matrix they want to escape from.
No real reason not to vote, go after oligarchs, or sink the democracy titanic.
Many people are living in poverty and slavery without even the basics
They just want to survive and escape from their cages.
The matrix is too abstract for their pressing concrete needs.
Perhaps the matrix can only be broken by collective goodwill.
You and I have struck a first blow. I haven't worked for four years so that I won't incur an income tax liability. But that also means I haven't received more transnational financier-banker corporate owners' central bank phony money to buy more of the crap from the government's transnational financier-banker corporate owner bosses' factories, so the owners won't make profits and the governments won't skim more taxes from the sale of those useless goods.
You and I are doing what we should be doing, and what we all should have been doing 40, 50, 60, 100 years ago, when collectively we could have done so and it really would have made a difference. I fear the opportunity to have realized this, and acted accordingly, as meaningfully as this truly would have been, has long passed, alas, and what we have coming to us now might be unavoidable.
This from a recent article by Moneycircus ( https://moneycircus.substack.com/p/crisis-update-central-banks-ready ):
" ... the centuries-old class system, in which the populace was kept in line with crumbs from the rulers' table.
Some got a few more, others a lot less. The number of crumbs dictated your status in life, and kept you subservient to the system.
There was no material gain from dissent. What psychologists called oppositional behaviour was easily offset with political systems in which people were "nudged" by envy or fear.
The social structure was constructed on crumbs: exchanging your crumbs for new ones each year; "keeping up with the Joneses"; earning the dough to send children to a fine school to learn the inside track of crumb collecting, to network with the scions of the top crumb gatherers."
They figured-out and applied a really effective slave system a long time ago, and since then they've only just sharpened and honed their approach with applied, weaponized psychology and digital technology.
But if the Russian SMO has taught us anything it's what the great seer, sage and philosopher, Mike Tyson of The Iron, once taught us as well: everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth. Fancy-schmancy weapon systems get shredded by overwhelming artillery as thoroughly as ever a column of blunderbuss-welding fusiliers did, and high-tech mech burns just as readily as timber powder wagons.
Right. And all this AI- bs is only the next bubble. It cannot replace people nor can it serve as a fake maschine- god for people to believe in. It has it's uses, but all this money invested in peoples brains instead would have resulted in much better results (for humanity).
Blimey, this is so true! Indeed it would have, instead they've fallen over themselves to degrade peoples brains and capacity for thinking: the damned education systems, first of Anglophone countries, but following on the heels, those of most NATO-aligned nations, too.
I don't have patience or taste any longer for science fiction (I can no longer look past the obvious and sinister predictive programming dimension), but when I did, I read Dune, Dune Messiah, and Children of Dune. The Butlerian Jihad of the Dune universe comes to mind, and the resolution, “Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind” which became the central commandment of civilization and lead to the supreme commandment: “Thou shalt not disfigure the soul.” In this most illuminated of prescience, at least, I really wish life would imitate art.
Yeah, not so different from that age-old adage "do not eat from the apple" in the beginning of it all...
I had been wondering for some time why many, if not most people, seem to be empty shells.
I was well aware of the de-humanising impact of MSM intellectual garbage and moral sewerage on unsuspecting human souls.
I had not realised the extent to which Netflix addiction might have progressively removed the stuffing from many people, reducing them to empty shells, who need to feed their addiction to fill the emptiness.
These people might appear to be happy, but what is true happiness?
For the addict it is an unlimited drug supply.
Truly intelligent people avoid addictions.
"I had not realised the extent to which Netflix addiction might have progressively removed the stuffing from many people, reducing them to empty shells, who need to feed their addiction to fill the emptiness."
Looky looky! The co-founder and first CEO of Netflix was Marc Bernays Randolph, is directly related to Edward Bernays, and hence also to Sigmund Freud, both of whom developed paradigms of psychology and propaganda, for examination and exploitation of the masses!
This, of course, is all purely coincidental.
So what's real happiness/intelligence and who is really happy/intelligent?
Perhaps it is best to just enjoy life as much as possible regardless, as it is short.
Many people's apparently flimsy definition of happiness is concerning though.
Are they really happy, or just making the most of the scraps of life?
What defines their happiness?
I am not talking about financial status.
Many financially comfortable people and supposedly intelligent professionals and academics, seem to be trapped in some kind of vacuum, incapable of any significant independent thought or moral judgement.
I really appreciate your rendering of the general state of mind or psyche of society. It's a functional way to regard it.
"Maybe at the end of the day practical intelligence is the best strategy, because the sad truth is, the practicals tend to be happier, in general, than the abstracts ..."
While I agree with your point, at least I do if we were to set 'happiness' as the metric. But I've personally long abandoned the assignment of 'happiness' as the primary criterion, or even any effectual measure of worth for an existence and/or a life well-lived, nor especially for the thinking, sovereign individual who would presume agency in the world. Animals/humans can be drugged into a blithely-contented state - a-la Brave New World - and remain 'happy' even when their immediate environment is ablaze and extinction from fiery dissolution is upon them. Pain itself can readily be palliated.
Aux, perhaps it is remove, as well as prevent from occurring again. Removing is one thing, but how do you prevent this criminal syndicate from aggregating again? (unless you mean the same by 'removing.') They've been doing it for centuries. Psychopathy and neurosis are hallmarks of this bottomfeeding syndicate. How do you eradicate these traits from humanity, to cleanse it once and forgood of these parasitic members? Selection for elimination based on genetic testing? Maybe already while still in the uterus? These solutions seem too drastic, and too eugenicist to be practical. Thus, I think we're hosed, with these ever-present predators amongst us. They will always exist and attract minor varieties of psychopathic neurotics to execute their plans for them (governments and the like). Eventually, humanity as a species will be herded off the cliff by these powerful and uninspiring misfits. (Give me some hope by explaining it ain't so... :-) )
Zonder, I've enjoyed reading your comments and am grateful for your generosity in sharing them. What is more, I've got more than a hunch that you're the kind of person I could sit at a table in a pub for hours to discuss all these topics over pints of good ale - or whatever tipple, or nibble, you're most partial to.
Even were it genuinely committed and actually did accomplish the greatest good for the greatest amount of people, I am convinced that government - that is, a permanent body of professional politicians and bureaucrats in an indissoluble institution with the supreme authority over the people and resources of a land - is at best completely superfluous. More explicitly, it is a parasitic and malignant existence. Were politicians themselves moral and rational, they would understand this themselves and they would remove themselves. But they are not moral, and if they are at all rational, they most definitely are not benevolent.
There is very little scope for, and very few circumstances where the kind of governance we might expect of a government is appropriate and necessary because, by and large, a community is completely capable of spontaneous self-organisation, gathering and allocating of resources as necessary, and providing all the services that it requires to function, accordingly governance occurs naturally and does not require forced imposition. In those few occasions a dedicated company of decision-makers is required (for example, disaster mitigation, threat of hostile invasion, etc.) any viable community would make available and outfit one, then dispense with it entirely when the need has passed.
I could elaborate, but I've already hogged so much of the real estate on Riley's comments page.
Yeah, it's good to have these stimulating "conversations." But I have to stop hogging the Riley space too, and back to my own substack again. Maybe we should all surprise Slasquat with a visit to his dacha where we can have long and inspiring discussions around that lovely bbq of his... -With thanks to all for this pleasant discourse. Until we meet again. :-)
Thank you very much, Riley. I don't seem to be able to get around to reading all your articles as soon as you publish them - actually, I only read one in about ten when I do get around to reading them. But whenever I've read an article, I wonder what the hell have I been doing instead of reading your articles.
In these days of Fifth Generation Warfare, while Oceania is at war with Eurasia (Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia) and East Asia at the same time, your perspective and criticism is essential, as important almost as is oxygen. And puppies.
But Putin and Russia: what a bloody mindf@%k! I understand some rudimentary game theory, so I can make arguments for using the same dirty tricks (biomedical-surveillance, CBDC, injections, 4IR, all of that kind of ordure) as your purported 'enemies' are, but from your reporting, Russia seems to be going about it in a sneakier way; being the only adult in the room, on the one hand, and displaying the same deranged psychopathy on the other. What's the real game here? Russia must be as pwned as U.S.+U.K.+Europe are by the same transnational financier-corporation owners, because they're all playing by the same playbook. BRICS was, after all, devised by Goldman Sachs' and GS former economist Jim O’Neill, so perhaps we really shouldn't be surprised. No, what we should be is morose.
Thanks again, Riley. I'm sorry for not paying. I haven't worked since COVID-19 and the deadly genetic injection slurry mandates. When they wanted us to believe they lifted the mandates (they never really lifted the mandates, because they'll have many more shots they'll coerce us into taking when the brand new Moderna factories they're building on all continents across the world come on-line and start pumping-out new injections), it was too late. I knew enough to decide that I wouldn't be paying taxes any longer because I couldn't knowingly abet government crime by providing it with material support, nor would I be complicit in state-mediated and executed crime. That means I'm really poor.
A real patriot ... are so wise and brave ... 😇
Sarcasm? That's okay. Actually, I hope it is, because I'm definitely neither a patriot - 'my' country is a preposterous fiction, an obsequious vassal state, a Satrapy of the U.S.-NATO, its values are imbecilic, and 'my' people are even greater fools than I am - and were you to know me personally, were you familiar with me and my background, how despite everything I've done and achieved, all the places I've been, and yet I've still managed to amount to absolutely nothing, the most abjectly inconsequential non-entityimaginable, you would also know that I cannot at all, in any way, be even remotely wise.
The minutes of the wise men of Zion! All questions answered...
This is not a case of the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon;
We are starting to notice.
Lovely puppies.
Yeah, Putin's Russian flavored variant of AstraZeneca's chemical slurry makes for much better clot-shots, to protect people against a virus which has never even been proven to exist. How can we refuse it? 🤣 Thanks, Riley!
My grandfather had occasion to visit Poland back in the 1950s-60s, but not Russia. He would come back home and at times would refer to us grandkids by saying "my little Sputnik". But calling a deadly vaccine "Sputnik" is an affront to Russian space exploration. Oh yes, all vaccines are deadly.
It is troubling how forgiving and uncritical of Putin some people in the West have become because of losing faith in their own clown leaders.
People looking for hope do not see the writing on the wall clearly.
Rightly or wrongly, between Putin, Biden or Xi, I'm inclined to choose Putin.
Alternatively, between Russia, China or the US, I'm inclined to choose Russia.
At least I know where I stand with Putin - beware thin ice!
With Xi and Biden & Co - who knows where they stand?
The US is responsible for untold suffering and death worldwide under various pretexts.
Russia does not appear to be hell bent on world domination regardless of the human costs.
Is Putin really any worse than Xi or Biden & Co?
Is this really about Putin, Biden or Xi, or those who control them?
OK the world is controlled by evil overt and covert power players - nothing new.
Safer off the power grid.
Same here... unfortunately.
Assuming you are in Russia Klim, and saying that even if we be careful not to skate on thin ice, we still do not know where we stand.
Years ago, a friend dragged me down the latin mass rabbit hole, on one occasion.
Thankfully I survived due to my interest in architecture, stained glass windows, art and sculpture!
When I returned to the surface, I was none the wiser about the appeal of latin masses!
I regard my friend to be an enlightened person, and attribute his inexplicable addiction to latin masses, to his Italian roots.
Reportedly, the FBI recently identified latin mass attendees, as extremists.
I tend to agree, but my perspective and the FBI's, are undoubtedly different!
Wonder if my attendance at a mass years ago was recorded, and I might be detained and questioned sometime in the future!
If you should for some inexplicable reason, engage in the extreme act of attending a latin mass, wear a credible disguise and look out for trench coats!
Interesting allusion... but thanks for the warning of both the mass and FBI!
To me, this seems like a ''Special Vaccine Operation.'' Slow-rollin' for Maximum devastation. Sweet pups, 'squat! I probably don't need to tell you, ''puppy shots'' are just as 'safe and effective' as the human iterations.
Riley is always entertaining and informative...since 'substacks' became a thing, I have had to winnow down the many that I've subscribed to...but this place hits just the right spot. Love those pups as well as the local feel. A tip of the glass to everyone.
We are all Slav!
Puppies?, clot shot?, puppies?, clot shot?. I'll take puppies please. One in each arm.
I do have a brilliant idea Riley: why don't ask Rubber Balone to make a fundraising to save Russians children from the evil hands of WHO? He could show them his brevets collection into Mrna research, like Raoult did in France in 2020? You know, those insiders are so useful when it comes to explain the tricky psy ops to the herds... And people like them, they tell them how and what to think, this is all so convenient! You know what? They could all choke themselves with their lies and hang themselves in the closet where they come from. The only regret I have is that folks don't get the move, even the more alert. They all vote for the experts. Who paid this cloaque of thieves and murderers you think? Religious people believed in « conversions » from the state or the institutions players... They are all pointing in the same open sky digital gulag direction, and they are all in bed with WHO's technocracrats, backed by EVERY state representative, every NGO, every corporation, all the zombie propaganda, whatever they say or declare on the social media circus of operations. I'd like things goes faster now. Let them have their fucking nazo weirdos world with all their supporters. Quick. The only problem I see is that they won't leave us alone playing in the countryside with puppies, animals and trees and grass and cow and flowers. Until we destroy them. My last point is, how?
An elected official spewing crap, what a rarity that is, not like taxcattle are getting dealt shit options to vote for.
