Seems like Western elites have Russia in a full chokehold, taking advantage of extreme corruption among other things. Psychopathic primates stealing gold from everywhere! Scrooge McDuck from Duck Tales was a documentary, not a children’s cartoon!

Why Russian banks would sell their gold to hold Euros makes no sense. Maybe they've decided to start bribing EU politicians. Something very dodgy is going on.

Prior to the cv psyop there was a massive shortage of USD all over the world. Shortly after the criminal federal reserve started printing money (part of the plan) the shortage worldwide was no more. Corona virus pLandemic is a financial transaction and the cover story for the collapse of the global economy that was eminent due to the theft and asset stripping.

some in US question if the government repository at Fort Knox still exists or has been cleaned out long ago... also rumor of tunnel between the underground vault at the Federal Reserve of New York and JP Morgan... would be curious to know just how frequently and thouroughly the physical reserves of largest gold backed exchange traded funds GLD & IAU are audited... could be a nasty surprise... are the auditors allowed to bring in a nail file & caliper to check out the depth of the electroplating... or must they just note the superficial sequential serial numbers... not sure i would trust any currency purportedly backed in a physical asset... including rubles... then again, don’t trust crypto either...

We don't need to "trust" Crypto. It's a public database. We can see it and verify it for ourselves. Re the gold...yeah dodgy as. Maybe that's why the price barely goes up.

if one owns crypto, how do you access it if the electric grid goes down for an extended period of time (months to years or indefinitely)?... think there is a reason they want every part of our lives dependent on grid.

Sure if the internet goes down, the ability to access your Crypto goes down, although when it spun up again it's all there. The problem with the elite bringing down the internet is that's also their means of control. And how do you keep it down? I remember life before the internet. It was fine. You just got lost more and would have to ask for directions. :)

also interesting that deciphered Sumerian cuneiform tablets detailed a history about extra-terrestrials ‘annunakis’ mining gold here on earth due to its relative abundance here and utilizing humans to do the mining work... apparently they coveted the gold for its utility in their highly technologically advanced society... elon musk has talked about mining asteroids for gold... why would he be interested if it was useless metal... his company recently amended its plan to allow corporate treasury holdings in gold as well as crypto... think we’re not being told the entire story about gold... not taking any side, just trying to figure it out, but Elon did say that Bitcoin was ‘almost as B-S as fiat currencies’...

Yeah I've heard that about the Annunakis. Maybe it also has something to do with gold's attribute as a conductor of electricity? There are amazing buildings all over the world of a similar architecture (Tartarian?) that don't look like they could have been built with the technology that we're told people had at that time. Plato wrote of Atlantis's walls being lined with gold and Orichalcum. Maybe Cathedrals were not originally built as religious buildings but rather healing centres that harvested electromagnetic energy from the ether and tuned it through the architecture and sound (church organs) to have healing and well-being affects. Maybe gold was used for this?

Expand full comment

yes... the annunaki story was that it was used to restore their depleted atmosphere on their home planet... love all the ancient alien theories... have been thinking that the elites already have the technological capability of harnessing earths electromagnetic energy grid, FBI having stolen Nicola Tesla’s research papers...

hadn’t thought about the churches as it relates to gold and acoustic frequencies to heal, very interesting... there was a program about the Integratron structure in the Mojave desert in California that was never finished but was designed to utilize sound and energy for rejuvenation of health...

That Integratron is up and running, but if you want to be healed you must be fully "vaxxed". https://www.integratron.com/ I used to live in the area, long ago, this place is near giant rock which is a place UFO groupies hang out at--or used to at least.

thanks for the info... surprised that purveyors of healing are requiring fully vax... sort of defeats the purpose...

Excellent point, Madame, re: authenticity. I have wondered about this myself. The density of gold and tungsten is the same. They say there is no counter party risk in precious metals but how is a buyer to know it is the real McCoy? Nondestructive verification instruments do exist but in researching the matter it became apparent that I would need an undergrad degree in physics just to calibrate the damn things (could be hyperbole on my part). There is the story of the New York state jeweler who bought an ounce bar of gold from the Canada mint. You can guess the rest; they wouldn’t take it back until he went public with the story.

So, who or what to trust? Silver seems like a better bet inasmuch as its density is unmatched by any other metal. Price volatility might be an issue for some but one must regard investment in PMs as an insurance policy.

The state has outlawed gold (silver, too?) in the past. It really doesn’t matter if your trading partner and you have some trust. In a SHTF scenario, how much trust will there be? This brings us back to that other PM, lead. And delivery systems. Don’t forget about lots and lots of food and potable water.

My own plan - to the extent I even have one - is to bring back on line a well on my property as I’m currently on city culinary water, do some gardening, maybe acquire a few goats for milk. I’m also joining the local Grange chapter in order to ingratiate myself with the local farming community which is large here (Inland Northwest). But that’s it.

There is a reason why millionaires want to become billionaires.

Why wouldn't the Russians simply print rubles when they are strapped for cash, like every other country does at the moment?

Expand full comment

They do and it leads to inflation which leads to higher consumer prices and that is already a huge problem for the public, especially those on low fixed income.

Expand full comment

I know, you are quite right on everything. But that's hardly a problem for the elites that are causing all this, is it? So the question still is, why sell gold? Maybe the CBDC's don't require gold backing? Or there's something else at play here that we don't know about.

Remember that we cannot eat gold!

can’t eat a bitcoin either.

It's hard figuring out in a dystopia where to put your money. We've got some bitcoin but I tend to agree with you that it is a con. Also so many of the traders in it don't know how to run a business and are consequently running into cashflow issues and delaying transactions. A classic house of cards/pyramid scheme.

Russia could use its gold to start growing stuff. There's plenty of land there, much of it unused.

Expand full comment

Yes, there is plenty of land - if only we spend money on cultivating instead of destroying it. There is plenty in China, Africa, USA and Australia.

Absolutely. I would like to knock Ed Sheeran's block off right now for suggesting that a country of 70 million people needs to rewild. The idiot.

I'm just going off the heading to the article. I didn't bother to read the article itself and have seen the same argument from Prince Charlie and George Monbiot so I know that it's shit.

It looks like victory for the City's hyenas and their fiat money flooding racket, who created the covid scamdemic psyoperation. Reality seems tobe very far from what we hear in the media, even alternative. People like the saker or Pepe Escobar are stuck in their geopolitical analysis, bragging the sino-russian aliance and the power of the Russian missiles while ignoring that a hord Russian scientists are working for the American private spacial ventures like Spacelink. This would also explain why gold has had the worst year since 2006. For me, it was clear that the City was the power trying to divide Russia and China in smaller states, providing propaganda, credit and arms both for the Ukronazis and ISIS, spreading a non-stop black propaganda operation against the rising eurasian giants. And then you learn that they are best buddies behind the scene.

Who are the global financiers? If we collectively cannot answer this question this will never end. Thoughts?

If Russia has a surfeit of gold then why not sell it? I would hazard a guess that Russia also has more untapped precious geegaws and baubles of all kinds in her "far" east because so much is uninhabited and unexplored. I think the thing here is the gold is being sold, not stored so at least Russia won't end up like Venezuela.
