First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me
Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)
I have to begin this analysis by asking for your understanding for the fact that it will include a lot of full-length quotes. Under normal circumstances, I would have simply provided links, but considering the topic I will be discussing, and how some things suddenly “disappear” on the Internet, full-length quotes is probably the best option. The topic I want to deal with is the brutal crackdown on free speech by the AngloZionist Empire by means of its ‘loyal corporations’.
First they came for The Daily Stormer
I will begin this discussion by a summary of what recently happened to the Nazi website “The Daily Stormer” as described by Wikipedia. The reason why I am using Wikipedia is because it is clearly hostile to The Daily Stormer, so it cannot be accused of sympathy or of exaggerating what happened. Here is this account: (emphasis added)
The Daily Stormer helped organize the Unite the Right rally, a far-right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia on August 11 and 12, 2017, in which a counter-protester, Heather Heyer, was killed in a vehicular ramming. Weev also called for readers of The Daily Stormer to locate and attend Heyer’s funeral, calling her a “fat skank”.
On August 13, the website was informed by its domain registrar GoDaddy that it had violated the terms of service by mocking Heyer, and Anglin was given 24 hours to locate a new registrar for the site. The next day it moved to Google which almost immediately cancelled its registration for violation of terms, also terminating the website’s YouTube account.The following day, the website registered with Tucows, who canceled it hours later for regularly inciting violence. On August 15, it was announced by weev that the site had moved to the dark web, and that it was now only accessible via Tor, while Facebook banned links to the site and Discord banned its channel. On August 16, Cloudflare, the DNS provider and proxy service used to protect The Daily Stormer also terminated their service. Cloudflare had traditionally refused to terminate sites based on their content, but CEO Matthew Prince made an exception, posting a public announcement and explanation on the company blog. On August 17, after a relocation to dailystormer.ru, the Russian media watchdog Roskomnadzor requested a shutdown of the domain.
The Daily Stormer briefly returned to the clearnet with a .lol gTLD, dailystormer.lol, administered by Namecheap, but after two days, Namecheap canceled the domain. The company’s CEO Richard Kirkendall stated that “the quality and context of the material, paired with the support for violent groups and causes passes from protected free speech into incitement”, specifically quoting one published statement from The Daily Stormer: “It doesn’t take a Ph.D. in mathematics to understand that White men + pride + organization = Jews being stuffed into ovens.” The site returned to the web as punishedstormer.com on August 24, hosted by DreamHost, whose other far-right clients include National Vanguard and the North-West Front. DreamHost stated that they were “standing up for freedom and democracy”; denial-of-service attacks from Anonymous caused all of their sites to go offline.
Next, and even more appallingly, it is the Swiss encrypted email provider Protonmail (yes, the one I recently recommended to our community) which shut down the account of The Daily Stormer. This is how Lee Rogers, member of The Daily Stormer, describes what happened:
I Was Just Banned From ProtonMail
Lee Rogers
Daily Stormer
August 23, 2017
ProtonMail just banned me from their email service claiming I committed abuse or fraud.
Cross ProtonMail off the list of companies to do business with.
I signed up for an email account with them when the shutdown began. I needed a mechanism for people to contact me. A few folks suggested ProtonMail so I figured I’d give it a shot.
Fast forward a few days later and I find myself locked out of the account stating that it has been disabled due to abuse or fraud. How can one make such a determination in just a few days worth of time? They obviously banned me because a bunch of hate filled people complained to them.
As many folks already know, I like posting cute kitten photos and funny jokes on the Internet. Even though I get much enjoyment from those things, I get the most enjoyment out of providing financial support to the starving Jewish children in Israel. It is something that I am very passionate about. By banning me from their email service, it means I will have a more difficult time supporting those poor Jewish children. This upsets me greatly as I will no longer be able to email all the Christian donors I had lined up who wanted to support this very worthy cause.
By banning me from their email service, ProtonMail has proven that their hearts are filled with hatred towards Jewish children. They sure have lots of explaining to do! What should I tell those poor Jewish kids who go to bed hungry each and every day?
Curiously enough, they posted this tweet around the same time my account got banned. No idea if this means anything or not but I have never called for violence against anybody. I completely oppose such things.
Besides Andrew Anglin, I think I’ve been banned from more Internet services than anybody in history. The only thing these tech companies haven’t done to me yet is refuse service on my registered domain names. I’m sure that’s the next step though!
Before I proceed any further, let’s get something immediately out of the way: I have no use for Nazis (or any other kind of racists or racialists) and I have absolutely zero interest in what The Daily Stormer might or might not publish. In fact, until very recently, I had never heard of these people or their website.
Three question about Nazis which must be asked
However, there are many very good reasons to be appalled by what is taking place:
First, why was The Daily Stormer singled out for such crazy persecutions? Okay, okay – they are racists and Nazis. So? Does that really make them worse than anybody else? Last time I checked, none of the people involved with, or working for, The Daily Stormer had committed any personal crimes. Furthermore, had they committed any such crimes, why not go after them individually instead of going after their website? Why are the loyal corporations trying to shut down the speech of some individuals? Because they are ‘inciting violence’? That is ridiculous. The entire body of Marxist ideology is one long and never-ending incitations to (revolutionary) violence, yet nobody has ever tried to shut down all Marxist websites! Heck, the French national anthem is an incitation to violence! Since when does “free speech” exclude the incitation to violence?! Every single US President has made innumerable calls for violence (Trump recently against the DPRK), and yet nobody is censoring them? Could it be that the only reason The Daily Stormer is singled out is because it is relatively/comparably weak/poor and unable to defend itself?
Next, let’s look at the insipid notion that the Nazis were some kind of “horror of horrors”, some exceptionally evil phenomenon in human history and that therefore they deserve some special and unique form of political persecution. Here, again, let me get something immediately out of the way: I consider the Nazis of have been an abhorrent gang of arrogant genocidal racists maniacs. I do, I really do. I have *nothing* good to say about them. But what I categorically reject is the notion that they were somehow worse than all the other participants in WWII. Think of it, the Soviets? Peuhleeze! Just read Trotsky’s “Terrorism and Communism” or Lenin’s “Lessons of the Moscow Uprising” if you have any doubts about the fact that the Bolsheviks were genocidal maniacs! The Anglos? Need I remind everybody that the Anglos committed a butchery unique in world history: the genocidal extermination of all the ethnic groups of an entire continent (I call that a “pan-genocide”). How about Hiroshima, Nagasaki or the genocidal bombings of civilians in Germany? Yeah, I know, the Nazi genocide not only got a special name – the Holocaust, a misnomer by the way – but their genocide is the only one that has a mandatory casualty figure attached to it: 6 million (do you know of ANY other genocide which is always named along with an obligatory casualty figure? how about any other genocide whose exact number of victims cannot be legally investigated?). For seven decades now (actually, less, but nevermind that) we are told to mantrically repeat “Holocaust 6 million, Holocaust 6 million, Holocaust 6 million”. Why? Could it be that the real crime of the Nazis was not that they were genocidal maniacs, but that they lost WWII and that their (no less genocidal) enemies got to write the history of that war?
Then, it is true that nowadays everybody hates Nazis. Some for the right reasons (they were evil genocidal maniacs) and some for the wrong ones (the believe the anti-Nazi propaganda of the Ziomedia). But whether this is for the right or for the wrong reasons, most people hate Nazis. Not only that, but the simply use of the words “Nazi” or “Hitler” immediately disconnects the (already generally poor) critical/analytics capabilities of the vast majority of the people and that makes Nazis ideal villains. Could it be that the Nazis were singled out for repression by the AngloZionist Empire because they were ideal villains, “consensus villains” if you prefer?
I want to add here that even if we conclude that The Daily Stormer was singled out because it was weak and unable to defend itself, if we also conclude that the main crime of the Nazis was losing WWII and even if we conclude that the Nazis are perfect “consensus villains” this is no way implies that the Nazis were not every bit as bad as the imperial propaganda describes them. If I say that a murderer is not a rapist, that in no way implies that this murderer is a fine upstanding citizen since he still is a murderer. In the case of the Nazis this very much applies. For example, even if the Nazis did not kill 6 million Jews in gas chambers, it is established beyond any reasonable doubt, and not only by propagandists, that the Nazi Einsatzgruppen murdered a huge number of civilians. In fact, Raul Hilberg, probably the foremost expert on Nazi atrocities, estimates that these units killed over 2 million people. So even if somebody could prove that gas chambers and crematoria were never used to kill anybody, this will not whitewash the Nazis from their atrocities.
[Sidebar: there is a paradox here. Jewish propagandists very unwisely used the 6 million figure and the gas chambers + crematoria to show that Nazis were monsters. Now the Nazi propagandists are flipping the argument around and they say that since there is pretty good evidence that 6 million did not die and that gas chambers and crematoria were never used for mass murder of people, Nazis were snow-white pure doves who never committed any kind of atrocities. They are both lying of course. There is, in reality absolutely no need to stubbornly stick to the 6 million + gas chambers + crematoria narrative, which are extremely dubious claims, to establish that Nazis were genocidal monsters. After all, even if the Nazis murdered “only” 2-3 million civilians using bullets, disease, starvation and torture, that would still place them in the same league as Pol Pot. But that is something which neither Jews nor Nazis are willing to even look into, they stick to to their own myths in spite of all factual evidence].
I would note that there is another “consensus villain” out there which the Empire loves to single out for fear and hatred: the pedophiles. Okay, before somebody blows a coronary, let me also immediately and clearly state that I have nothing but disgust for pedophiles. That is not the point.
The point is that the AngloZionist Empire designates “consensus villains” to develop tools of repression (legal, technological, political, social) which then can be used against everybody and anybody.
Creating consensus villains
Check out the little collage I did representing a “Nazi pedophile”:
The Nazi pedophile: the ideal consensus villain
What I am trying to show with this image is how powerful the emotional response of each one of us is to an image combining a child in distress and Nazi Swastikas. What this kind of image does is create an emotional tsunami which easily smashes through any critical, rational, skeptical or analytical barrier in the brain of the person exposed to it. Though an image is probably stronger, the words “Nazi” and “pedophile” often have the same effect: to make us stop thinking and agree to anything to stop the putative Nazi and/or pedophiles. All that’s left is to give a name like “Protecting Our Children from Pedophile Nazis law” and you can pass anything, even laws justifying torture, arbitrary arrest or daily mandatory cavity searches for the entire population.
Still dubious? Okay.
Then ask yourself the following question: how is it that in a society saturated by pornography and in which homosexuals are slowly achieving what can only be called a hero status, how is it that everybody is SO concerned by child pornography? Seriously – do you *really* believe that anybody in our elites actually cares about children? If yes, I have a collection of bridges to sell you at unbeatable prices!
Of course our rulers don’t give a damn about our kids: the only use they have for our kids is to use them in the pedophile sex rings, that’s it (oh yes, while pedophilia is a crime for the commoner, it is a universal status symbol for our masters and overlords; Pizzagate anybody?). Ditto for pornography (the US porn industry is far bigger than Hollywood) or morals (we are in the “God is dead” post-Christian society, are we not?).
No, the pedophile has been singled out for the same reason as the Nazi: not because they are bad (which they, of course, are!) but because they are both easy, almost defenseless, targets and ideal ‘consensus villains’. Let me repeat this: for the AngloZionist the function of pedophiles and Nazis is to provide an ideal defenseless villain and their purpose is to make it possible to create the tools used to oppress us all.
[Sidebar: To get a sense of how much Nazis have been demonized, just look at this Wikipedia list of organizations advocating pedophilia (this time I left the footnotes so you can check the source)

Noticed something interesting? These pedophile organizations ALL have their websites. And yet nobody in the doubleplusgoodthinking community has even tried to shut them down, nevermind systematically persecuting them like The Daily Stormer! Why is that? Are Nazis so much worse than even pedophiles?]
There is also another particularly toxic side-effect for creating “consensus villains”: it makes it easy for non-consensus villains to hide. Let’s take a very simple example: the so-called “Holocaust”. It is often said that there is a need for, I kid you not, “Holocaust education” to make absolutely sure that “such an abomination does not happen again”. Not happen again?! It never stopped!!! The decolonization of Africa was a bloodbath, US wars in Korea and Vietnam killed millions of people, as did the US sponsored civil war in Indonesia. The Cambodian genocide, the Bangladesh war of Independence, Mozambican Civil War – all saw millions of people murdered. More recently, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the genocide in Rwanda, the US occupation of Iraq, the 2nd Congo war – they all killed several million of people. It is obscene, grotesque and outrageous to say “never again” if in reality it never stopped. Or let’s take the example of pedophilia: I am absolutely convinced that the Empire publicly persecutes pedophiles only because it refuses to look at the horrors the porn industry generates, not only amongst its “performers”, but in the millions of individuals and families it affects (and if you think that these are the paranoid ravings on a prudish Christian fundamentalist, just read this article and wake up to the real world! I also highly recommend the second chapter “The Illusion of Love” in Chris Hedges wonderful book “Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle” which I consider to be a “must read” to understand the United State’s society).
The horrible truth is that neither Nazis nor pedophiles are in any way exceptional. They are just the typical products of a world gone mad with arrogance, hatred and maniacal perversion. You don’t just do away with any and all forms of spirituality, with any sense of the sacred or absolute, and not pay the consequences of that kind of folly. The condemnation of Nazis and pedophiles is just a particularly hypocritical form of virtue-signaling by forces and individuals which are every bit as evil and perverted as the Nazis and pedophiles which they so vehemently denounce and condemn. We should not let the tree hide the forest, and neither should we allow one SOB to hide a multitude of other SOBs.
Subcontracting the repression of free speech to private contractors
What is taking place right now is that the Neocons have found a clever way to circumvent the constitutional guarantees (such as the First Amendment) by privatizing the repression of free speech. This is really nothing new: the Pentagon has been waging illegal wars by using “private contractors” just as the “3 letter” agencies have been illegally spying on us by also using private intelligence companies. Now the Neocons are using the private sector to crack down on our freedoms: ain’t capitalism just wonderful?!
Let’s take the example of the The Daily Stormer again: if the US government had barred The Daily Stormer from having a website or from using email, the ACLU would have been up in arms. But since this is done by the private sector and not by the government, the ACLU has absolutely nothing to say. Why? Because the “terms of service” (which nobody ever reads) give IT companies practically limitless power to do what they want with your data and the power to deny you any and all of their services. To use Google (or any other IT company’s services) is not a right. That’s that simple.
The key problem here is that, taking the example of the The Daily Stormer, Godaddy+Google+YouTube+Facebook pretty much *is* the Internet. Oh sure, right now The Daily Stormer is hiding in the “dark web” (at http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/) and can only be accessed by using a Tor router and where it is not indexed by search engines (also, at the time of writing, it is also located here: https://dailystormer.al/ but God only knows for how long). But this is irrelevant. The Empire does not give a damn about what happens in some remote corner of the Internet, it only cares about being able to control what happens in about 90% of the Internet, and that 90% is controlled by a relatively short list of loyal corporations which are more than happy to do the Empire’s bidding even without a court order.
It now also appears that, at least according to the Wikipedia article above, Anonymous is willing to act as the Empire’s enforcer. Of course, this might be the NSA pretending to be Anonymous. We will never know.
This was inevitable I would add. The Founding Fathers crafted the US Constitution (and other legal instruments) to protect the people from government abuse. They could never have imagined that the ruling elites would dismantle as much of the government as possible (mostly the most useful parts) and replace it with private corporations. US civil right leaders were so obsessed with Uncle Sam that they never even noticed how the US corporate world quietly and legally enslaved them, on behalf of the ‘deep state’, of course, whose main component today are the Neocons.
So what must we do about this?
The liberation of our minds and of the technologies we use
I think that we must accept the Neocons’ conceptual challenge: they are literally daring us to oppose the persecution of Nazis and pedophiles. We, therefore, must do exactly that – try to make it impossible for the Neocons to persecute the Nazis and the pedophiles. Not for their sake, of course, but for *ours*! Because if the Empire can do this to the Nazis, then the Empire can do it to anybody next. Truly, “first they came for the Nazis and pedophiles”…
[Sidebar: seventy two years after the end of WWII, the tables have been fully turned, and now the famous verses by Pastor Niemöller should begin by “First they came for the Nazis and pedophiles”. I can imagine how absolutely appalled Pastor Niemöller would be if he found out that his famous anti-Nazis words are now being used to defend the freedoms of Nazis and pedophiles. He would be appalled, yes, and saddened, but I am sure that he would also understand and agree.]
I submit that it is high time for all of us to refuse to be treated like laboratory rats who are trained by operant conditioning to worship X (Barack Obama) and loathe Y (Nazis). Nazis and pedophiles fully deserve our disgust and rejection, but not because we have been brainwashed to hate them, not because they represent some kind of ‘super-evil’, but simply because they truly are abhorrent. Those who want to brainwash us into hating them don’t trust us to come to that conclusion without brainwashing and that is, I submit, is very offensive and demeaning for us. We need to tell those who would have us terminally brainwashed that we can come to our own conclusions, thank you very much, and that they can keep their brainwashing to themselves.
Besides liberating us for the ideological yoke imposed on us by the imperial propaganda machine, there are also technological issues which need to be looked into. For example, having a website and using encrypted emails. We all need this, right? Except that now, this might be a very hard thing to find. What if there was a corporation out there which would openly declare that this corporation’s services would not be denied to anybody for any reasons? What if a corporation declared, on principle, that Nazis, pedophiles and terrorists accounts would never be closed or otherwise compromised? Would that not be exactly the corporation you would want to open an account with?
First, let’s be realistic and not ask any service provider to ignore a court order. In the abstract, that could be very noble, but not very realistic. However, our first condition could be that the service provider would only close down or otherwise limit our account if given a legal court order. Terms of service which would include that provision could, in theory, make even the United States a fairly safe jurisdiction. Switzerland or Iceland would be even better.
I don’t know if this is technically feasible, but it would be even better if the service provider made it technically impossible for itself to shut down an account. There have been some steps taken towards this kind of setup. For example, Protonmail encrypts the user inbox in such a way that even if a Swiss court ordered Protonmail to produce a user’s inbox contents Protonmail would only be able to hand over highly encrypted files but not the plaintext. This makes me wonder if it would be possible to have one authority (the service provider) deal with the creation of one account but that this account, once created, would be technically impossible to close down for the service provider. What if that account was hosted on a P2P network or if the credentials to create an account were insufficient to close it down? I don’t know, I am just thinking out loud here. Any opinions?
Second, the corporate headquarters, financial assets and servers would have to be located in fairly safe jurisdictions. Protonmail has it’s corporate headquarters and bank accounts in Switzerland (their servers are distributed, some are even in Israel, sigh…). Maybe it would be better to separate them all in different jurisdictions? Distributed jurisdictions maybe?
[Sidebar: here I have to admit to my great regret and shame that Russia under Putin is no better than the USA and, frankly, Russia is even worse in many aspects. The sad reality is that the Russian government, under the pious pretext of anti-terrorism, has passed many freedom and privacy crushing laws and that the legal guarantees offered to free speech in Russia are close to zero. Yeah, *right now* there is a good guy in power, but if tomorrow, God forbid, some kind of “Eltsinoid” comes to power there is nothing preventing the Russian government from totally banning encryption, shutting down “politically incorrect” websites, etc. The sames goes for Iran and China, by the way. I am personally lucky that my blog is not blocked in Iran – yes, I had this checked – but many others are. China might be the worst offender of them all: they now want to introduce the mandatory registration of passport data for each person using any social media! This is paradoxical, but the countries who are at the forefront of the resistance to the AngloZionist Empire have even less of a culture of freedom, especially on the Internet, than the USA or most EU countries. This is very bad news for us because that means that we are probably more likely to find a solution to our problems in the West than we are in countries such as Russia, Iran or China. It is quite telling (see above) that Roskomnadzor instead of providing a safe heaven in Russia for The Daily Stormer actually demanded (and obtain) that their Russian domain be shut down. Shame on Russia, is all I can say!]
Will such a service provider ever be created? I want to hope that yes. I was tremendously encouraged by the reaction of the Electronic Frontier Foundation (see here for full text) which strongly condemned the actions of the loyal corporations and who clearly said:
Protecting free speech is not something we do because we agree with all of the speech that gets protected. We do it because we believe that no one—not the government and not private commercial enterprises—should decide who gets to speak and who doesn’t.
God bless their hearts! I am proud to be a member of the EFF.
The Free Software Foundation (FSF), of which I am also a member, might have to come up with the technology to guarantee that nobody, including “consensus villains” is stripped form the right to present ideas or to securely communicate.
I can hear the objection “what about the terrorists?” To this I would reply two things:
- As far as I know, all terrorists are state-sponsored.
- Terrorists can *easily* bypass any forms of state control (mostly by not revealing which email accounts they use).
So this “we will give the terrorists the means to communicate” is a total canard.
As a tool for freedom, the Internet has truly been fantastic. But we also have to recognize that it has its weak points, especially its “points of entry” (the so-called Network Access Points or NAPs) and domain name registration mechanism (via ICANN). Governments cannot shut down the Internet. Government and the private sector together probably can.
And then there is the problem of search engines. Right now Google reigns supreme, and the runner-up (Yandex) is very much is focusing on the Russian Internet. There are plenty of other search engines, but none of them offer any guarantees of being a-political. Yet again, this is a challenge for the free software community which will have to come up with a solution, but this will take time.
Preempting some inevitable accusations
Did you notice how many times in this article I had to go out of my way to preempt the accusation that I have some kind of sympathy for the Nazis? Well, I am pretty sure that some dimwit will try to post a comment accusing me of being a Nazi anyway. When that happens, please consider it an example of how easily the word “Nazi” turns brains into mush. Some will also accuse me of being a crypto-Nazi (or something to the same effect) not because they really believe that, but because they will lack any logical and fact based arguments to dispute my points. They will hope that the “Nazi” label will serve to simply remove my arguments from the awareness of the well-conditioned readers. Finally, there will also be the inevitable “offended Nazis” who will be absolutely outraged that a guy who dares question the 6 million + gas chambers + crematoria ALSO calls Nazis evil racist genocidal maniacs (they also hate it when I speak of Ukronazis – apparently the fact that there are plenty of Jews in the Ukie leadership is evidence that the Ukronazis are not Nazis. Makes me wonder if these guys realize how much Nazis and Zionists are alike or whether they don’t understand that the Israeli government is, ideologically speaking, simply a Jewish version National-Socialist ideas, policies and even methods). That kind of arguments usually begin with “it sounds like” or “in other words” or “so what you are saying” etc. My reply is simple: I wrote what I wrote. If I wanted to write something different, I would have. So, please, spare us the usual “creative paraphrasing” of what it actually says.
Conclusion: the last groups of resistance
The current hysteria around the Alt-Right, the Daily Stormer or Tump as the “KKK Candidate” are not just the result of the corporate media being controlled by sensationalist idiots. This is a deliberate strategic psyop campaign whose aim is to topple Trump and crackdown on the legitimate aspirations of millions of Americans who simply want their country back. It all began by a color revolution against Trump, followed by a successful coup and now the Neocons are turning their attention to us, the regular people. In their sick minds, if we are not brainwashed Clintonbots then we are all neo-Nazis of some kind. For them, the Daily Stormer or the Alt-Right are just the evidence and the pretext they need to crack-down on our civil liberties and human rights. To make things worse, the so-called Left (I say “so-called” because, let me tell you, there is no real Left in the USA, only ignorant dumbasses would call Obama a Socialist!) has totally failed to understand that “first they came for the Alt-Right” and, instead, they participate in the “Trump is a racist” campaign. Frankly, I find the US liberals beyond any hope, terminally brain-dead, and politically they are idiots at the service of the Neocons. We all know where the Neocons stand. So that leaves only two groups who are still capable of thought and these are the paleoconservatives and the libertarians. They are not exactly my cup of tea with their economic ideas and myths, but that really is irrelevant at this point. What matters is that they are the last ones standing for the following basic principles:
- Support for Constitutional freedoms and civil rights
- Opposition to empire and foreign wars
- Resistance against the social and political agenda of the “coalition of minorities“
I think that by now most paleoconservatives and libertarians have understood that “the Trump presidency is over” as Bannon put it. Trump is a crushed and neutered intellectual midget in the hands of the Neocons. But what Trump stood for during his election still deserves to be fought for. Forget the man, but remember the values, the ideas, the principles which got him elected. These values are all that stands between us and a life of servitude to the Neocons and their AngloZionist Empire. This is also all that stands between mankind and a possible world war.
[Sidebar: to my (real) Leftist friends: no, I am not endorsing the political views of the paleoconservatives or the libertarians. But I am saying that in the US context these are the only two political forces left which are mentally capable of resistance. As I said, there is no real organized Left north of the Rio Grande, sorry. And, before you ask, the Antifa who are just dumb tools in the hands of the Neocons. Yes, there are some real Leftist individuals in the USA, surprisingly many I would say, but nothing organized, no movement. This is a disaster and a tragedy, but this is also the sad reality.]
What the Neocon propaganda machine has been doing is to try to place the paleoconservatives and the libertarians into either the category “Putin agent” (Ron Paul) or Nazi (Pat Buchanan). If they succeed, then it’s really the end, folks.
The “6 million” trope is odd. Partly because it is always exactly that. Partly because… well, it is generally known that the US government killed *at least* 3 million Korean civilians in the “Korean War”; *at least* 3 million Vietnamese, Cambodian and Laotian civilians in the “Vietnam War”; and (with superb symmetry) *at least* 3 million civilians in Iraq between 1990 and the present day.
By my reckoning that adds up to *at least* 9 million innocent civilians quite coldly and deliberately killed. (And their cities, towns, villages, hospitals, transport systems, sanitation facilities, sewage works, water supplies, etc. destroyed, and their farms and woodlands poisoned).
How come that doesn’t rate a mention, along with “The Holocaust”? After all, the USA killed *at least* one and a half times as many as are alleged to have died in “The Holocaust” – not counting the dozens of other countries in which it has committed deliberate mass murder.
It couldn’t possibly be just because all the 9 million dead were Asians. Because that would be racist, and Americans hate racism.
“Regarding the genocide : any genocide can be questioned or denied – even encouraged to do so in certain cases – without any consequences, but there is one genocide which cannot be questioned or (god forbid) denied without getting a severe punishment under a law agreed upon and applied openly in many countries (mostly EU). This is the biggest card ever obtained by the Zionists. What is disturbing, is the fact that this card is being used by every important political player, almost everywhere on earth, aiding the power of the Zionists and that is the biggest trap ever set to the mankind. Whenever is being invoked mainly in Europe and America by some protagonists, it provokes fear and retreat on the other side, making their heads bow down and remain silent.”
(wrote this recently on another thread – copy and pasted here by me.)
They are not banning pedophiles, they are still on internet, they are just banning nazists, and not only nazists, nationalists, conservatives, traditionalists.
Mixing up traditionalists which is an ideology with pedophilia, which is raping babies and children is hardly accurate either for that matter.
Had the text been “first they ban nazists and NAMBLA” then it would have been a more accurate comparison.
So there’s all kinds of depravity on the dark web (Tor) but also on the normal web, yet it’s the “nazis” and their speech that needs shutting down.
Speaks volumes.
I’m surprised you don’t know where the ‘six million’ meme came from. An infamous zionist actually spread this disinformation about 6 million jews being dead around the time of WW1 (yes, you read that correctly, the figure came from propaganda more than two decades earlier than WW2).
Read the masterpiece “Dune” to see how a Deep State identical operation lays down phony myths generations before they intend to capitalise on said myths. The female ‘witches’ in that story infect vulnerable populations with prophecies they intend to bring about themselves- knowing the future descendents will become ultra susceptible to manipualtion when the myths seemingly start to come true.
So the ‘holocaust’ ‘six million’ figure was always utterly phony. Most of the ‘deliberate’ jewish deaths of WW2 can be explained by the usual sad despicable inter-tribal violence that has infected that part of Europe for more than two thousand years. And let me remind you, the most powerful jews in Germany a few decades earlier happily participated in acts of German genocide in Africa against dark-skinned ‘sub Humans’. In fact most jews were very proud racists before 1970, since their ‘holy’ book taught them that dark skinned Humans were ‘inferior’ by god’s design.
WW2 was only a shock to most jews because they were used to being the people giving the ‘treatment’, not receiving it.
PS along with the psy-op six million figure came the laughable lies about lampshades and soap from people’s remains. And what puzzled me here is this- if the ‘death camps’ were so terrible in reality (and they were), why were so many lies created to demonise the nazis? Wasn’t the truth enough? But then you’ll find the answer if you google the ancient art of ‘atrocity propaganda’.
Read the masterpiece “Dune” for another reason – how an empire implodes itself by succumbing to its own chronically paranoid conspiracy obsession & in so doing makes the wrong alliances to attack non-existent enemies. This is what Shaddam VI does when he hooks up with House Harkonnen to take down House Atreides, when the former are really his true enemy conspiring against his throne, whilst the latter a natural ally that would have helped him preserve his power. There’s a major lesson there, “plans within plans within plans….” The author Frank Herbert was a genius, he foresaw many of the issues that shape the global geopolitical landscape today, including incredibly the potency of religious fanaticism which he actually labelled “jihadism” (back in the 1960s) with political ideology. This book is a must read for a student of political conspiracy.
I’m a big fan of the Dune series. If you read the prequels you will find out why the alliance of House Corrino and House Harkonnen against House Atreides. House Corrino and House Harkonnen cine from the same bloodline, and an Atreides banished a Harkonnen for cowardice.
Just a small correction: the “6 million” meme first appeared in that “beacon” of Zionism (the Unglued Kingdom) at the end of the XIX Century, which is about the same time Herzl and his Khazarian gang found support for their little Zio-Project and founded WZO (1897).

P.S. Here’s also a link to an essay by Roger Tucker supporting The Saker’s view of immense similarities between Third Reich Nazis and today’s Jewish state of Isra(h)ell (I would add, the two are like siamese twins): https://sites.google.com/site/onedemocraticstatesite/Home/today-s-headlines/zionism-and-nazism-is-there-a-difference-that-makes-a-difference-by-roger-tucker
Why the hatred against Jewish officials?
They are downplaying their suffering and have quietly reduced the number of 20th century victims from 18 million to only 6 million – sweeping the 6 million victims of Czarist violence and the 6 million dead of Polish and Ukrainian interwar violence under the carpet. They are almost turning the other cheek.
https://tauroggen-e.net/2016/03/27/happy-easter-message-gentle-jewish-officials-downplay-number-of-victims-in-20th-century/
“So the ‘holocaust’ ‘six million’ figure was always utterly phony.”
And therein lies some weirdness. If the Saker is correct when he writes that “it is established beyond any reasonable doubt, and not only by propagandists, that the Nazi Einsatzgruppen murdered a huge number of civilians,” why manufacture the Holocaust and focus on that instead…?
This is part of why I call shenanigans on the “Assad’s government forces are murdering tons of civilians with barrel bombs” story. If the narrative were legit, why rely on the chemical weapon false flags instead…?
Americans only hate some kinds of racism, first against jews, second against African -Americans. Other racism is not so bad, against Russians for example.
”Then, it is true that nowadays everybody hates Nazis.” Not strictly true. Nuland, Pyatt, Biden, McCain just love those good Nazis in Lviv, and Kiev. Right Sector, Svoboda, patriots of the Ukraine and the Azov Brigade. These are the ‘good’ Nazis.
Such leaders include Andriy Biletsky, the head of the Patriots of Ukraine group, and founder of the Azov Battalion – an ersatz version of the German Waffen SS units of WW2 – whose statements could easily be mistaken for the rabid polemics of Nazis during WWII: For example:
“Our National body should start with a racial cleansing of the Nation[…] a healthy racial body will revive[…]culture, language and everything else.”
“We must pay attention to the question of the value of race. Ukrainians are a part (and one of the largest and the highest in quality) of the European White Race.”
“The historical mission[…]is to head and lead the White Peoples of the whole world in the last crusade for their existence. A crusade against Semite-led subhumanity.”
This is the type of political pondlife that the US chooses to call its allies. Not only call it allies but actively supports, funds and arms them.
Well said. Bravo!
Ukraine is the spawning pond of these scum.
Now they get to be led by US special ops.
So it is .
I was called a Nazi 4 years ago visiting birthplace West Germany for just most cautiously reminding the Deutscher Michl of basic facts (and not too many) of sovereignty , the fact of the lack of a national Constitution , Versailles guaranteeing continuation of WWars , BRD/FRG being a company , a vassal… the (north)German is a born political dunce – see how these treated their own Bismarck – read his biography. Similar though in Russia , what Dmitry Ragozin in his > The Hawks of Peace Serbia !), coertion, black mail, misuse of states’ agencies (esp. the secret ,military and foreign office ones), whilst propagating through media, Universities, fake agendas re IDENTITY,gender, health (vaccination dogma now enforced by the global medical mafia monopoly Inquisition , treatment through sheer suppression of symptoms, killerdrugs…), fakefoods/ bread / foods, factory milk, adulterated contaminated salt, sugared industrial food products, aspartame,

Hail!
No, the Kiev ultra-nationalists are just the useful idiots. Everybody uses them. US/Israel using ISIS; US/Israel using Svoboda; US/Jews using ANTIFA.
In fact the Charlottesville protest was probably the largest gathering of undercover FBI in US history. One wonders if any civilians was involved, at least in any leadership role.
“Nuland, Pyatt, Biden, McCain just love those good Nazis in Lviv, and Kiev.”
That’s because the “good” “Nazis” also “love” the “international clique” and its “policy of financial blackmail, to squeeze the last ounce of substance out of its people.” The International Monetary Fund was boasting of all the loans it was going to chain Ukraine to about one month after Yanukovych was forced to flee the country. Now, the country is an economic mess gutted by privatization and austerity.
The “bad” “Nazis,” however, hated the clique and their financial blackmail, and markedly improved the lives of regular people. That’s why the “good” ones received US military aid and favorable PR while the “bad” ones received a world war with their enemies getting the military aid…
Today I got an email from the World Socialist website saying that Google is trying to shut them down.
“Dear Katherine,
Last week, the World Socialist Web Site published an open letter from WSWS Chairperson David North to Google demanding that it stop censoring the Internet and stop blacklisting the WSWS and other left-wing sites. We hope you have had a chance to read it and have signed the petition against Internet censorship.”
They have launched a petition; its text is in both English and German.
I have noticed that some of the most earnest and sincere people with the best of intentions and conscience seem to be some of the most easily led. I think that might be because they respond most readily to the “scare buzzwords” and phrases as described by the Saker in this post.
More cynical people perhaps are not so quick to accept the premises behind the “scare buzzwords” and jump on the bandwagon.

Here is another story about Google’s monopoly power:
“Scholar says Google criticism cost him job: ‘People are waking up to its power’ ”

At the time the US Constitution was written, libertarians regarded government as the main threat to their individual freedom. The problem was a tyranical king. To the extent that religion might represent a threat to freedom, the King and the Church were united as one in the European system.
Today, its become obvious that there are multiple threats to an individuals freedom. Government is of course still one. In a world where the US and either soon or now other countries scoop up all electronic communication, in a world where the US has massive and militarized police forces that more and more have a license to kill, one can not discount the threat to individual freedom is not threatened by government.
But it has also become clear that there are other threats. Religion is one. Religions always want to tell everyone what to do, and give them just a little power and they’ll start to enforce it, often brutally. But corporations and economic power is another. One example is the corporations that have such a huge impact with monopolies on modes of communication. The fact that everyone uses Facebook makes Facebook useful as a tool to contact people. But it also gives an unelected Facebook corporation power over what people see and know. Or when there is only one employer in town, then that employer gains immense power over the lives of others in the town.
Today it is quite clear that there are multiple threats to individual freedom beyond just the threat posed by government. And any movement that is going to try to fight and regain lost individual freedoms is going to have to recognize that and find a way to deal with that.
The left is also complaining about increased censorship by companies like Google.
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2017/08/25/pers-a25.html
They claim that all of what used to be the most common search terms that led to the wsws.org (socialist) website no longer do so by Google. And that there are 13 left and progressive organizations saying the same thing with them.
And Ron Paul just got his YouTube (also Google) video feed ‘de-monitized’ by Google with Google saying that they won’t pay any advertising/view dollars because of the content of his point of view. http://www.eutimes.net/2017/08/googles-youtube-bans-ron-paul-by-demonetization/
The main theme seems to be Google using its monopoly power to censor any political speech with which it doesn’t agree. And of course Google won’t agree with anything that hurts its profits. And its unlikely to agree with anything that would reduce its power.
“And of course Google won’t agree with anything that hurts its profits”
CIA-Google and all other Banker’s Cartel assets are not motivated by profit, as we all were wrongly taught in kindergarten.
On the contrary, all sectors of society identified as mission-critical for hegemony, are monopolized by Zion by offering products & services at a rate no honest corporation could ever compete with. CIA-Amazon doesn’t need to make a profit, neither does CIA-Tesla, or CIA-YouTube.
How many newspapers, TV stations, Internet news sites do you think are profitable? I assume it is a zero sum game at best, huge financial black holes, more realistically speaking. Which plays into the hands of the Oligarchy who can cross-finance all mission-critical businesses and institutions with drug-weapons-human trafficking and good, old money printing.
I believe you are right and only wish this was more talked about in the true alt media so more people could connect the dots.
Rachel
_smr:
Interesting theory. If you add to the zero sum game the large amounts of money the US yearly spends for its military, but no one exactly knows what it’s used for, then your theory gets even more credible.
Very astute.
I completely agree that softening up free speech mandate in the context of the far right etc. is the prelude to finding ever more “exceptions” to free speech rights.
Even my darling and very idealistic niece was dissing the ACLU for defending the United group’s right to use their rally permit. This is one reason why I speculate that some of the most earnest and sincere people are the easiest to confuse this way.
Google, FB, etc. are in effect monopolies and should be broken up by the govt. That is where the ACLU should be focusing whatever power it has (and I think it does have influence and “name recognition” also among the recently become hopeless “left”).
A couple more points from my own brain on this.
The condemnation of the “white nationalists” and “white supremacists” in C’ville makes the Confederacy the criminal in perpetrating slavery and white supremacy and conveniently lets the North and Northerners off the hook for complicity in the destruction of Reconstruction and the creation and perpetuation of the Jim Crow system. It is almost a “feel-good” operation for the anti-White supremacists. It is 90% a festival of self-righteousness and pointing the finger at symbols while leaving untouched the rest of the racist country and its history of profiting from Jim Crow and appeasing the South to make political deals in Washington. The Dem Party was *the* party of Jim Crow, until well after 1964. In fact, the Civil Rights Act probably was one of the nails in the coffin of the Dem. Party of FDR. After that, the South went Repug. It was part of the job of Bush Senior to “turn” Texas from Dem to Republican. See Robert Bryce, Cronies: Oil, the Bushes, and the Rise of Texas, America’s Superstate.
Worth noting, too, that from this very racist South has sprung the backbone of the US’s armed forces, especially the Army. Is it any wonder that racism within the military and overseas with invaded populations has been rampant? It started already in the early years of the Civil War, when Union officers had to be called East to fight for the Union. Western units had to be peopled with irregulars, many of them from Appalachia, Texas, etc. This was part of the picture with some of the most horrific massacres of Native Americans, at the hands of units led by such officers. .
Re “the terrorists,” no need to worry about them! Their magazines are made available by the Clarion Project website. And they also use WordPress.

Freedom is always the freedom of the different-minded.
Rosa Luxemburg
The point is that there’s no freedom for the man without the same amount of responsibility. In other words, no responsibility means no freedom. And only if there’s some responsibility, then there’s the same amount of freedom for the man…
So, only when the man takes some responsibility he becomes to the same degree free.
But when a man wants freedom without responsibility, he gets nothing (as he gives nothing in return).

So governments of Russia, China and Iran in my opinion are absolutely right that they more and more treat the Internet (virtual reality) the same way they treat our material world.
I would say this about Russia and China and their censorship.
They limit it to internal consumption. It is local.
The West is wiping out global users and global creative sources. It is totalitarian not local.
Also, both nations are considering building a new WWW that does not have the US control over its infrastructure.
That would be good. Knowledge bases would be the valued content. Remember the days pre- google? We thought all knowledge would be at our fingertips.
It may happen if they go for it. Both cultures value history and the deep reservoirs of human knowledge. It would be wonderful to have access to those treasures without Jimmy Wales’ Wikitriky bullsh*t. And no more Google, MS, NASA, CIA monkey f**king interference.
Okay, but if Russia and/or China build their own internets, why would they suddenly reverse their policies of censorship?
It seems far more plausible that they would naturally apply the same censorship policies to any new infrastructure, just as they currently do to “native” social media platforms such as Weibo and WeChat in China.
Having more options would be good, of course, but I would not expect an “all knowledge would be at our fingertips” network.
China is a special case of censorship because the society can destabilize swiftly based on rumors and slights of injustice. It is actually a fragile society, immature compared to other great nations. The people themselves don’t crave democratic freedoms over stability. And the government has used the social media by allowing citizens to “monitor” corruption of local officials and to vent on topics near and far.
Russia seems mostly to safeguard children and to limit terrorists.
The great variety of TV and magazines and news portals are mostly Liberals, so I don’t see how things are so bad in Russia. Yes, they don’t want encryption to block their hunt for terrorists.
But the society doesn’t seem to mind. After all, Beslan was a trauma to the heart and mind of every Russian. The government does not seem to use the censorship against the flow of ideas. It uses it to secure the civilians from terror tactics.
I”ve never heard one question in Putin’s 4-hour annual marathon Q&As address this issue.
It’s all Western NGOs, Soros stalking ponies (none are even horses) and disgruntled Jews who have fled to NY and Canada for their CIA pay day.
@Larchmonter445 I agree that China is very fragile, but I don’t see that changing anytime soon. They have some significant internal problems, and until those have been surmounted, any kind of “alternate Internet” they roll out will likely be just as controlled/censored as their web today. As for giving up encryption, I would be very wary of that, as the only way to make the internet secure for commerce and to deter identity theft (which is growing dramatically every year, by the way) involves decent encryption.
Also, we already don’t believe the Western intel agencies when they say they need to conduct mass surveillance to keep us safe. We don’t believe this, in part, because we know mass surveillance of the internet is not effective against terrorism.
The people who have really looked at this discovered two things: mass surveillance employs big data technologies and thus generates too may leads; secondly, the leads are generally of very poor quality. A 1% error rate might sound low, but if there are 10,000 leads that could mean the police kicking in the doors of 100 innocent families. Besides, it is simply too easy to evade these techniques. They only work as long as people are ignorant and use plain language to express their intentions. The big data algorithms will be looking for specific keywords, which can easily be replaced by some simple word-substitution ciphers (e.g., “pizza”).
The Chinese people are already surveilled by CCTV so intensively nearly any crime or incident in public is captured on media, digital or video tape. Beijing has millions of cameras. All major cities are similarly networked with video sensors.
It is really not intrusive in the thoughts or expressions of Chinese. Go on Weibo or other social media and you will see very free expression, though it is all monitored and filtered for “key words” the government feels sensitive toward.
What is far more disconcerting about China is under President Xi the cult of Communist doctrine is being reinstalled as Main Line of ‘thought’. He is a classic Maoist in Panda robes. He has ordered that Communists (70 million people out of 1.3 billion pop.) must give up religion or any spirituality.
Atheistic Communism is the only high level thought allowed.
The fallacies and weaknesses of this ideological rigidity led China to famine and cultural self-destruction and eventually to the tragic decision to use the military to end the student protests in Tiananmen in ’89. Don’t forget that the protests were economic at their core, not for democracy. The Opening Up had gone slowly in the late eighties. In their late stage democracy was a patina glossed atop the basic economic demands of students and then workers who joined them. The natural instinct of the Zhongnanhai ideologues was to rigid obedience. It ended catastrophically on June 4th. That date is now the most censored item on the Chinese Internet.
China is unique. A few decades of capitalism has transformed everything except the basic social fear of instability of the masses and desperate need for a rigid command structure (none more rigid than Maoist Communism). Between those two poles is China, dynamic, successful, energetic and thoughtful.
Regarding encryption, the governments of the world, the big ones especially, want the “keys” to the algorithms. It began when Phil Zimmerman created PGP. He hustled it outside the US before the government could stop him from distributing it. VK the social media app in Russia is under the thumb of the government and they are trying hard to get control of Telegram the messenger app that is highly encrypted. The reason is clearly the threat of terrorism.
Can any government afford to allow total freedom in mass communication over the Internet?
Not with criminals, deviants, terrorists capable of exploiting the total freedom.
That is the dilemma.
The resulting censorship, when guided by ideology, is the great challenge to Freedom and Truth.
The evil of ideology thus is the more threatening situation than restrictions against criminality and terrorism.
I thought we learned from Bentham and Orwell that total surveillance and widespread censorship are very effective means of social control.
Or are you are trying to say that the Chinese are somehow “special” and different from us Westerners, in that they have freedom of thought and expression in spite of total surveillance and broad censorship? Or, that there is no ideology in the public sphere in China?
If you had to submit your passport to register to participate in the discussion here at the Vineyard, would you? That’s where the Internet is heading in China.
I understand your point that states are in a dilemma w.r.t. total freedom in mass communication (and in this regard, I found TNY’s comments below quite interesting), and I understand the rationale behind protecting Chinese and Russian society from attacks coming from the West, but personally I am on the side of the rights of the general public, not the exclusive rights of a state, Chinese or otherwise.
In any case, a public sphere as you describe — heavily surveilled and censored — seems completely contrary in spirit to what the Saker has proposed in this article. It would serve the interests of the state but, I submit, ultimately not its citizens.
Andy Rooney said that on tv 16 years ago (about)…ie that 1% error was a sure way to lose the thread and ruin lives of many good people in silly quest for ordinary dupes run by criminals that serve the intel apparatuses, thus in fact bringing about the comaflage of the criminals in a sea on innocents who have been wronged, and thus it serves 2 effects:
Pi*s-off good solid people and drive them toward dispising their own rulers
Provide “smoke” to help criminal and bandits conceal themselves in the multitude of wronged innocent.

On the one hand it is an ugly thing to censor whatever speech, but on the other hand it is understandable that China (or Russia, or Iran, or Turkey) defends itself against subversion by the monstrous, and still very influential, mafia which owns the entire system in the rest of the world.
It is also understandable that Russia is completely allergic to Nazi propaganda (WWII, Nazi Ukraine) and Saudi-Wahhabism/ISIS propaganda (Chechnya). The AngloZionist West of course very much propagates (and demonizes) Nazism and ISIS, which are their main and indispensable scams.
See for instance: http://www.veteranstoday.com/2017/08/29/real-nazis-or-more-zionist-hoaxes/
I’m no expert but let me put in my two cents worth about Chinese censorship. There may be complicated cultural and historical reasons for it but IMHO it is also a form of ideological protectionism, like garden-variety protectionism imposed by countries that are losing a trade war. China is no match for the Empire in an ideological war, and a fierce war has been raging for years or decades. After all the Empire is what it is because it is strong militarily, economically and ideologically. If China is “free” now it will be devastated ideologically and then a colour revolution will follow, or someone like Yeltzin will come to power. The progress made in the past decades will be set back to zero or worse. A logical thing for China to do now and in the near future is to buy time using censorship so that it will build up its strength in all areas. This may be an easy way out, but it may also be the only recourse.
I’m sorry to report that according to the small number of online Chinese forums that I read the Empire has made headway in the ideological war. In practically any discussion about any humble progress that China has made, building a new aircraft carrier for example, there are always a number of eager detractors. Perhaps they have been brainwashed or paid to do what they do. Obviously their idea, or the Empire’s idea, is to put you down the whole time, to destroy your confidence, and if possible, to destroy your identity. I happen to live in a Chinese city with no censorship. Here some people’s mind is so colonized in recent years that they don’t even believe they are Chinese. Whenever a natural disaster strikes in China you can count on reading people rejoicing. Pretty disgusting, if you ask me, but so are all colonies and so is the Empire. I don’t like censorship, but if you were running the country what could you do in these circumstances?
I take you live in Hong Kong?
Its really a catch-22 for the Chinese government, let paid foreign agents destabilise the country with “freedom of expression” or censor and made to look like the bad guys.
There are a few proposals here http://phibetaiota.net/category/ose/autonomous-internet-ose/
for decentralised models of the internet. Some time ago a link was posted about the use of blockchain technology to guarantee the integrity of distributed content storage, but I cant find it now.
Steele’s site is an excellent repository of open source and sustainable tech, though it now spends a lot of time hand-wringing over Trump’s lost opportunities.

The internet as we know it only serves the interests of big corporations and repressive regimes. To rob you of your money and freedom and poison your mind with lies and propaganda.
Intelligence agencies and law enforcement work with a limited (albeit big) capacity: budget, manpower, computational power, etc.
To protect our freedom we need to act. Encryption, Tor and cryptocurrencies are tools that can help reclaim some of our privacy. Let them waste as much time and effort as possible as they suck up huge amounts of data for analysis.

Approximately 5 – 7 million Jews were murdered by the NAZIs. I have no problem acknowledging that and being vigilant to the tendency of powerful governments to commit genocide.
What irks me to no end is the neglect given to the other 9 – 12 million victims. Mention that to one of the many holocaust survivors, and they are offended that we think of other victims.
I’d say you are already hooped. You obviously believe with out good reason to do so.
I agree – and I’d add (not sure if you agree or not but your seem like the only reasonable comment here to me, mentioning the obvious)
…putting an equal sign in between Nazis and other sides in the conflict (WW2) is…I don’t just plain wrong…
People are just forgetting what really happened as there’re very few survivors. Half of my family (elders) suffered from Germans (and we’re not jews) and I had first-hand accounts told to me. Nazis somehow being good because they hated jews nobody likes today – is now making them right for all the rest they did? What other sides did is also by no means equal to that, the war is always ugly, and what Russians did (mostly to themselves) has nothing remotely similar to Germany in WW2.
Well, this world is going down the drain…
Hello James,
If you have proof of these numbers please share. According to Third Reich camp administrations released by the RF the numbers are much lower and many deaths were not murder but more or less natural deaths caused by cold, disease, malnutrition, conditions of work, age, etc.

Just me, a nobody!
Had a glass of wine from a totally stupid but nice guy; here i am reading this site and wondering what is all about… I can’t sleep at night thinking about the unstable,weird future i created for myself in this country where i came for freedom and a chance for better life , all is it about being politically correct, all answers to stupid questions and issues created by the so called elite, all are afraid of being killed tomorrow if they say something true!
why can’t people rise and say enough is enough?
this is 21st century and we don’t care to be slaves to the leeches and profiteers born into the the class – aristocracy, the wailers and the parasites who learned to live on the stupid hard working people – renamed antifa, adl, blm and other crazies… get off the people’s back, I, want to breath, to exist and live,to read, to talk, to drink and be free to do what i want and not to cater to ass….s!
I have two kids to whom i paid my duty and gave much more than the nothing i got myself in the communist era,when i did my best to survive, they are but nothings of this society and pitiful Results of unsupervised childhood when i worked my butt off for survival – they praise homosexuality as a God’s given right and the right of the child to suck of the tit of the family forever w/o duty for reimbursement.
why is there so much fear?
Why did you put children into this world if you hate them? Whose fault is it that they’re nothings in this society? Is it their fault? Didn’t they get a proper education? If they got a proper education, then why haven’t they been able to build a successful career for themselves? The list of questions could go on and on. Maybe you could be blamed for the things that went wrong, maybe it’s the fault of your children, maybe of their teachers, etc. You can’t blame a faltering economic system on your children. I’m pretty sure they didn’t export all the value adding jobs to China, Mexico and wherever else the wages are lower than in the US. You can’t even blame IT folks for losing their jobs to Indians doing the work from thousands of miles away.
Your comment could’ve been written by an economist who views his children as assets. To stay with economic language I would say: If your assets don’t bring in enough ROI (“reimbursement” in your own words), you invested in the wrong assets.
what has a proper education to do with one soul, you, Anonymous?
my kids are highly educated, with post graduate degrees all paid by me , yet they are lost souls , dignified reps of this society where the money, fakery, politically correct crap is the rule and the love-thy-neighbor or remember where you come from means nothing.
it’s not about my kids, it’s about this society where the lie is truth, the family means nothing, the goodness is taken as stupidity and the law of the jungle rules — dollar is the king!
look back at who you are and do good — do not throw stones, (Removed,do not insult.MOD).
Everyone – this includes you and me – are the results of the societies we live in and the people we interact with.
… they praise homosexuality as a God’s given right and the right of the child to suck of the tit of the family forever w/o duty for reimbursement.
Those are the words of a loving family member…
If you think of my questions as throwing stones: so be it. They should’ve been intended to get you to think deeper, to realize that everything is interconnected and that each and every decision we take will bring results with it – good and bad.
Your children are the results of many decisions and actions of you and the environment they’ve been raised in. You may be entitled to have expectations (towards your children), but you’re wrong to assume that those expectations will be satisfied. Your actions – in dealing with your children – still may result in a change of their actual course.
You’re a calm and thoughtful Anonymous but I wouldn’t adopt as lecturing of a tone, for a “somebody” who has rightful anger that can be the energy and stuff of something more productive.
I wouldn’t blunt that energy. Just turn it from getting angry to getting even, or damn well trying to, more effectively.
Sounds like he came from Eastern Europe or Russia….maybe Asia went through changes in mind control, customs, prejudices, languages, job skills etc, etc and escaped the sizzling fat just to land in the cauldron of fire.
He had to resist, probably big time, and hustle his buns off to move around this world, meanwhile his adult kids just want to settle in to comfortable deck chairs on the Titanic and let their kids be indoctrinated in Zio-gay solipsism and soft-core satanism.
The guy needs tools to fight, not Prozac, IMHO.
I kind of like Just Him……… probably a Real Somebody of Value!!!
I can understand the man, having lived through the same experience with one difference, I have no kids. But I witnessed many such things and even bigger dramas in the lives of those who went to the west with the hope of “freedom” so darling propagated by radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty in the years before 1989. After the fall, the mask of the Masters has slowly fallen and now has become naked. The truth is there, here, everywhere. The kids, grown up in a society based on the “new western values” is brainwashed in such a way, to fit to the plan of the Masters, who, now, encouraged by their “victories” against the “dirty communist/socialist” countries are eager to obtain the power over the entire world. It’s true, before 1989, the life was better in the west and peoples had much more freedom, but that was the candy, given by Master dandy. Since, the gates are wide open for making the people idiots and slaves, and…assets.
Bro 93 and ioan:
Whilst his anger and frustration at society are understandable (especially the greed and worship of money), the bashing of his children didn’t sit well with me.
Right at the moment I’m witnessing several friends and acquaintances raising children. Some of them do well, others don’t. Especially the couple that doesn’t do well will have to face a few surprises in the future. On a few occasions I gave a hint or an advice, but that’s all. (I’m not even lecturing them.) They’re grown-ups and are free to make their own decisions.
With regard to Mr. me: If there’s so much anger inside of him, then that anger will hardly disappear because of some comment of a stranger. Probably it’s quite the opposite. I agree that this energy should be channeled in some useful way, but that’s up to him.
ioan, your observation of the changes since 1989 confirm my own ones. Probably we in the West (Europe more than the US) got some social elements in order to obey to our masters. Since the demise of Communist / Socialist countries, the kid gloves of our elites came of and we’re headed towards full-fledged old style capitalism (including Railroad wars with paid mercenaries – nowadays called private contractors).
We’re living in interesting times.
yeap, my sweeties…but one exception , i recently became a jack-of-all-trades doing gutters repair, electric fixing, cement work and all after two graduate degrees and … i am a small frame woman and, a very feminine one!
it hurts my soul that i provided the best i could in this new world to me; i put these kids through the best schools and paid for them hundreds of th and neglected my life except for my readings( i slept 5 hrs/day) and yet the society took over them and there they are: one, highly educated politically correct robot and the other an “artist”, a weak, push over by his adulating moochers who eat the money i gave him, to better himself – to become, to be on his two feet!
yeap, I refuse to admit all guilt in their childhood and education — i had to work and provide and the day has only 24 hrs. i will survive but they are lost to me ,for now, even though they seem the good and reliable members of this society.- a sick one to me!
Concl: i wish i had more wisdom to know that the partner in life is more important than any education or material gain! Yet I thank God each day for the bit of freedom and all i could experience and understand!
I keep getting the gender wrong.
Well, Ms Somebody I apologize!
Don’t despair. Chin up, happy face! Nothing is fixed. Change is accelerating. It (including your kids) could get a whole lot better so fast as to make 6 billion heads spin……..or…….NOT …and instead………we are erased as some sort of sad, incurable cosmic mistake…….
No one should want to miss this! Hang on!
At least it shouldn’t be boring.
Things like freenet have been around for years. Unfortunately they have problems with bandwidth and latencey. If they become popular the government begins to poison them with child porn to drive off many potential users.
These issues prevent platforms like that from reaching the critical mass they need to be efficient. Without a goverment sponsor somewhere offering protection im not optimistic.
For starters, with regard to Western Nazis, Russia in particular is damned right to tell them to bugger off without further delay. It becomes even more morally convincing as Russia doesn’t gain any appreciation whatsoever from the fascist (“anti-Nazi”) West by doing so.
“This is paradoxical, but the countries who are at the forefront of the resistance to the AngloZionist Empire have even less of a culture of freedom, especially on the Internet, than the USA or most EU countries. This is very bad news for us because that means that we are probably more likely to find a solution to our problems in the West than we are in countries such as Russia, Iran or China”
This sounds mostly like the erstwhile non-stop whining in the West about Soviet ‘totalitarianism’ that refused to bow before the awesome ‘pluralism’ of Western democracy. In retrospect, it is overwhelmingly clear that those who did perceive the one-party system as anathema were the West’s ruling Zionazis, as it made their plotting and subversion appreciably more difficult and, hence, expensive. Ditto the restrictions in today’s Russia, China, and Iran pertaining to the Internet.
And no — the appropriate solutions will not come from a rotting and decomposing West, the latter’s perpetual self-worshipping cant about “freedom” notwithstanding. It’s Russia, China, Iran, Lebanon, and Syria that have the wits and the spine to accomplish large-scale emancipation.
Haven’t finished reading, but this statement; “The condemnation of Nazis and pedophiles is just a particularly hypocritical form of virtue-signaling by forces and individuals which are every bit as evil and perverted as the Nazis and pedophiles which they so vehemently denounce and condemn” immediately reminded me of Romans 2:1-3. But then, what use does a post-Christian society have for an old book of “fairytales”, as they say?
It’s probably my own introjection, but I think this is the best thing the Saker has written. What courage and honesty! He doesn’t even hold back from Russia or Iran. Some will hate me for saying this, but the US first amendment of free speech is akin to the Love Army’s first division of “think love,” followed by nine gut-wrenching examples of what that kind of tough loves entails.
I normally use the Cafe to express my ideas and feelings, but I just had to say something here in gratitude for such truth-telling. I fear that such opposition to Empire will have consequences such as attempts to shut down this vineyard. Many times a day I call on the Love Army to protect this vineyard, and its Cafe Heart.
Love, Dennis
Hmmm, on that last thought …. when is The Saker going to have an onion site?
There are several other satelite Saker sites. so why not add Saker Onion to the list?
It would probably be best to have such a site up and running, before they start to attack the ISPs and the DNS links to this most useful site.
Just a thought :)

We saw at the time of the election of the Obomber that what had been perceived as ‘the left’ in the United States had been heavily infiltrated with Democratic Party operatives. The obvious example was the way ‘The Anti-War Movement’ dissapeared and shut down as soon as OBomber took command of the wars and started to fulfill his election promise that he could manage the wars better than Dubya. The large antiwar movment that had existed during the Dubya years suddenly demobilized. Many of the people still believed in opposing war. But the movement, its leaders and its resources were revealed to be in the hands of the Democratic Party operatives who wanted to embarrass Dubya but now had no real opposition to Obama fighting the same wars and more newer ones.
This was actually true across ‘the left’. I was in a local Green Party where the ‘leaders’ were obviously doing nothing that would upset the Democrats. Basically a mirror of what Jill Stein did this last election as she dissapeared in the last couple of months, and certainly stayed clear of anyplace that Hillary needed the votes.
So, with the Democrats taking power, most of the ‘left opposition’ found itself demobilized. And the framing of political debate of Obama and the Progressives against the forces of fascism and rascism brought most of their followers into the fold as well.
The Occupy movement was organized by leftists who did not follow Obama and the Bankers. But the elite soon used the power of their media, infiltrators and eventually the riot police squads commanded by Democrat governors and mayors to crush that.
Black Lives Matter was very quickly co-opted and absorbed into the Democrat machine. Turns out that at least that bunch of ‘young black leaders’ was just as anxious to be bought off become a tool of the Democrats as the ‘old black leaders’.
But basically, there’s very little left on the left. And even of the intellectuals on the left that I like, many have been sucked into the ‘Hate Trump’ mindset. Some probably for the same reason as CNN. That’s what draws ratings, and what sells books and videos.
Me, I registered as Republican in 2012, because Ron Paul was the only show in town in terms of anti-war candidates running in the primaries. The Democrats forbade and shutdown any left opposition to Obama. By 2016, I surprised myself in voting for Trump. It was definitely an anti-Hillary vote. I became opposed to the Clintons not long after I voted for Bill to end Reagan/Bush in ’92. By ’96, I was disgusted with the Clintons and was voting and working for Nader. So, in 2016 I became what I know of as the only member of the “Greens for Trump” faction of 1.
To me, its obvious that the ‘opposition’ has moved over to the Republicans. Since being anti-nuclear weapons and anti-war in general are key issues for myself, it was notable that even the ‘rebel’ on the Democrat side refused to take anti-war positions or to in any way oppose the War Machine and the Deep State. Bernie wouldn’t touch either with a 10 foot pole in that election. While Trump was campaigning on saying that the Iraq War was a mistake, saying that wars of Regime Change were mistakes, re-viving an old Republican talking point about the US defending Europe in NATO was a rip-off, and daring to say that maybe talking to the Russians is better than nuking the the whole world and ending human civilization as we know it.
To this old hippie leftist its very obvious that the anti-war opposition is now in the Republican Party. Which means I suspect I’ll be holding my nose a lot as I vote like I did in 2016. I used to work with Real Estate Developers and I generally consider them to be true scum. So its still hard to believe I voted for one to be President.
Anon:
“So, with the Democrats taking power, most of the ‘left opposition’ found itself demobilized. ”
Absolutely, this is also my view.
Obama was a Trojan horse who basically hollowed out the soul o the Dem Party, the soul that was left after 8 years of Clinton but sort of revived during 8 years of Dubya. These surviving remnants of the “old” Dem left (which wasn’t really that old, having sprung to life sort of during FDR’s tenure and the Great Depression) were I think sincere and hopeful when they “swarmed” for Obama. But after he took power he basically just cut off the balls of those Dem “leftists.”
If Hillarly had won, she too would have totally hollowed out the Dem party in terms of neutralizing leftist feminists and most women as a progressive force: Just as no blacks or progressives wanted to criticize Obama, no women (a large Dem progressive constituency) would have criticized President Hillary, regardless of what she did.
The weird thing is that she managed to lose but she and Obama together suceeded in undermining Trump to such an extent that now both prev. progressive parts of teh Dem Party have been rendered totally useless and have been co-opted by the Neocons. They are worse than useless because they are being controlled by ideas and phrases that can be labeled “dog whistles.” Not sure. Because they are so blatant. Repetition of “white supremacists,” “Nazis,” —those two strings alone, plus “Trump!!!” seem to suffice to control these new “progessive puppets” to swarm in the direction that the neocons want. More bellicosity, more heaping of ignominy on Trump—the president of the USA. He is like a cornered bull at this point, maddened by nonstop large and small digs. We know that when people are isolated, they are psychologically weak. Trump seems to me to be comparable to an elder abuse victim.
Anyhow, my main point is that I agree that Obama had a deleterious effect not only on world politics, but on the Dem party.
He basically destroyed it.

“First the Empire came for the Nazis and pedophiles…” And “any Canadian citizen with an interest in the wrong subject,” I would add. Such as the rights of Indigenous people, for example. Former United Church pastor, Kevin Annett, as a more precise example.

We need lawyers to help, IMO. I’m amazed at how a person can move from “weak and defenseless” to “basically protected” with a legal representative.

Is this the 2017 version of the “loaves and fishes” parable? Or that saying, “give a man a fish… vs. teach a man to fish”?? Thanks, Sanctuary One, I can see where I’ve gone wrong!! Seriously, I did dabble in this prosperity business at one point, privately, not as part of a congregation. I couldn’t make it work — I think there is something to this (theological basis), but in practice, I found myself acting like I was part of a “get-rich-quick” scheme. The Almighty was unmoved. :-)
Add professor Anthony Hall of the University of Lethbridge to the list. Sh*t canned from his tenured professor job because of his youtube channel ‘False Flag Weekly’ where Israel gets implicated in the NYC 9/11 attacks on a regular basis.
Thanks, Rick, for mentioning him. You know, Canada is the place you resurrect the Western Left. Or Armenia. Because the Empire is failing, and both nations have a security guarantee ftom Russia (to be blunt).
S113:
Canadian indigenous rights is one of the PR-friendly policy-bluffs of the current regime. Sadly, aside from these policy bluffs, the new regime is about 90% of the Harper regime in policy. I am especially concerned with the quiet budgeting of of hundreds of millions for military presence in Latvia.
But you strike a good point about the indigen.
No government has acknowledged, let alone appropriately addressed the genocide.
But the questioning of Sir John A. as names for schools, much like the taking down of statues of American civil war Confederate leaders is feinting, to avoid appropriate recompense.
But allowing the genocide to continue still is preposterous and robs us, as a society, of any moral position to address other, more recently initiated genocides/displacements of indigenous peoples, in other parts of the world.
Someone mentioned, above or below, that Canada is one place to resurrect the Left, inside the empire, unfortunately, the empire is installing an unwinable candidate in the NDP, who will be at least as weak as the clown on the right; so Justin will have a cake walk against the ‘opposition’ in the next election, and continue, carefully, with their pro-empire policies.
In the Canadian context, real reparations for the indigen should be the rallying point for moving forward; they are a minority which SHOULD be recognized and elevated.
I believe the fate of all could hinge on this.
If it can be accomplished, we all still have a chance.
Great comment, One Tribe – Canuck!!
I say: work outside Canadian political parties altogether. Everybody in politics owes somebody something. With a security guarantee in Canada, sincere scholars and other individuals (with no wealthy sponsors) could congregate here and work on starting some movements among Western citizens. If push comes to shove, get the Canadian military involved (personally, I’d start by consulting with them. What have persecuted anti-elitists got to lose?? If the Empire is willing to militarily confront Russia, then we’re all doomed anyway.)
I think Trudeau relies on the Indigenous vote, so he’s going to deliver something for them. I’d chalk up the slow progress to political intrigue or sabotage. Although it’s great that you are watching out for this!! Organizing around someone like Annett could certainly help move the process along!! I sympathize with NDP members, who want so earnestly to start a 2017 grassroots revival movement, extending the legacy of Tommy Douglas, Ed Broadbent and Jack Layton. (I say that based on a bunch of comments I’ve read from NDP members.) I agree with your assessment on the leadership race.
Cheers!
For the Daily Stormer the kid gloves came off. That’s a rarity. Usually courts and police tend to crack down hard on any left movement (the Occupy movement or just recently some alleged antifa member who had allegedly thrown a bottle at the G20 summit – he got sentenced to more than two and a half years).
Should people be allowed to spread so called “hate speech”? I’m indifferent in this aspect. Whilst everyone should be entitled to freedom of expression it’s pretty difficult to safeguard that it’s not abused for inciting hatred. It’s fair game for Pied Pipers in times of extreme inequality. You need well educated citizens (with a healthy portion of common sense) and some guaranteed security for their well being. Without those preconditions the fight against agitators seems lost.
For shutting down the Daily Stormer you don’t need to give orders. Would you – the Saker – want to “get your hands dirty” by hosting that web site on your computer? I’m all for free speech, but I wouldn’t move a finger for anyone who dreams of suppressing other groups – be it because of skin color, religion, health, social status or financial status.
Holocaust education / Genocide education: Should be mandatory, but in a way that doesn’t induce guilt. People should know and recognize the mechanisms that first lead to exclude undesired groups and then to use them for human experimentation or to exterminate them.
Roskomnadzor: If that company wouldn’t have cancelled the contract newspapers all over the Western world would’ve started pointing fingers at “evil” Russia supporting right-wingers.
Nazis of 1933: Did you ever think of the idea that the Nazis could’ve been the useful idiots for the US empire to get rid of the detested Bolsheviks and their communism? Maybe the goal had been to weaken Europe and the USSR. Didn’t the English Empire pass its status as Empire to the US after WW II? What about the Lend-Lease act? According to – unreliable – wikipedia the British deliveries to the USSR were free of charge, whilst US sold goods and services for about eleven billion dollars. (How long did it take the USSR to pay for the goods and services? Did the payments restrain the development of the USSR economy – aside from communist mismanagement?)

“Roskomnadzor: If that company wouldn’t have cancelled the contract newspapers all over the Western world would’ve started pointing fingers at “evil” Russia supporting right-wingers.”
The daily stormer and all the zionazi attention it’s gotten literally cried out they are a zionazi psywar front.
Their move to a ru host being instantly harped on by the zionazis is a sure indication the zionazis were intending all along to demonise Russia by association with this zionazi psywar front.
The Russians clearly saw what the zionazis were up and nipped this zionazi govno in the bud.
“The daily stormer and all the zionazi attention it’s gotten literally cried out they are a zionazi psywar front.”
As so often, the name itself – The Daily Stormer – is a giveaway. It bears all the hallmarks of the nihilistic, retarded, stale humor of the half-wits that run ZionIntel.
Nazis of 1933. A good reading on that issue is Guido Preparata, Conjuring Hitler: How Britain and America Made the Third Reich.
You are not the only one realizing this increasing censorship. Many good people are being de-monetized on Youtube and losing their source of income. Before you speak well of Patreon, Laura Southern, an alt right commentator who obviously doesn’t like muslims, was kicked off of it for her views with no explanation at all. We desperately need de-centralized and censorship resistant replacements for facebook, youtube, twitter and google and fast. The good news is that a lot of very intelligent and talented programmers are fast at work creating these. Bitcoin, as a de-centralized and censorship resistant network, sets the bar to what could be done. Now that Segregated Witness has finally been activated in Bitcoin, we can create many layers on top of it that could have applications so to eventually replace the above corporate companies. Right now there’s a Bitcoin-like app called Steemit that is somewhat of a facebook that is de-centralized and you can eventually earn crypto money which can be exchanged for dollars. Maidsafe.net is an attempt to create a peer to peer internet. So I’m convinced that in time we can defeat the loyal corporations but these new technologies will take time to roll out.Bitcoin, Steemit, Maidsafe and many others are out of the control of the loyal corporations and this is where our hope lies.
There is a crypto currency writing and article coming soon, if The Saker approves it. Yes, wonderful new initiatives in the space.
Funny thing about some de-monetized youtubers is that they’re spewing pure hatred for the Venezuelan government. They’re even mixing the labels Communism and Socialism when describing Venezuela. On the other hand those youtubers are pro free market, but they don’t realize that advertisers in a free market are free to choose where to place ads. If I were responsible for the marketing of a company I would refuse to place ads with Lauren Southern. Neither she, nor any other youtuber is entitled to forcing companies to place ads with them.

Yep.

This web site is were I learned about not to make the mistake to consider the Russian oligarchs to be allays or under the control of Putin – for which I’m very thankful.
Shouldn’t we apply the same to Roskomnadzor – their action it might be controlled by somebody else and they might not be the same as “Russia under Putin”?
A number of years ago, I first heard the lyrics of Tom Lehrer. I found his songs to be about as truth filled as anything. I suggest that you look him up and listen to him. Yes, the 1960’s were a strange period … but a lot of eyes were opened … since shuttered by the capitalists, whether American, Russian, Chinese, etc.
http://www.lyricsfreak.com/t/tom+lehrer/
The ’60s was the last time Americans looked Truth in the Eye, and the last time Truth was free to be seen.
They took away Truth. They altered Media, Education, and Culture.
Now, they do whatever they want.
Shadow Government, Deep State, manipulated Search, Big Data control, Political Correctness and now, the final, violence in the streets to crush the People before a true, armed insurgency can form.
WOW! I need to read this several times. I get the concept, but it is shattering parts of my brain to grasp it all. Fortunately, this fits in with my view of the extremely strange happenings in the US, but I just never imagined……

We are closer than ever to the times that the Holy Apostle Paul spoke about:
“Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 13 But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: 14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. 16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, 17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work” (2 Thessalonians 2: 1-17).

According to scientists we’re witnessing the 6th species extinction (it started in the 70’s). If you’re searching the internet for rivers like blood you’ll find many pictures of rivers with water so red that it resembles blood (often caused by some microorganisms). Compare this with Revelation 8 and you’ll be surprised at the similarities. As far as I understand some passages of the Bible aren’t meant to be understood literally, they’re allegories.
Read Matthew 24 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2024 and http://biblehub.com/bsb/matthew/24.htm) and you’ll find many more references which indicate that we may be living in the last days. (Last days is to be understood “relative”. It could be tomorrow, but it could also take a few decades.) Whenever someone is trying to point to a specific date you know that this person seems to be trying to deceive you (Matthew 24:36 and Mark 13:32), because nobody knows time and date.
Read Matthew and Mark in full:
(Matthew): “And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened. 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, 51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth”.
(Mark): 31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34 For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch”.
The ball is in your court. Don’t be like the foolish virgins of Matthew 25.
WizOz:
Which ball are you talking about? What did you want to tell me, except to read the texts (that I’ve recommended to the first Anonymous) again? Are you offended that I said that it could be tomorrow or that it could be a few decades? A few decades can be interpreted whichever way someone likes – the word “few” is relative. By purpose I didn’t set any date, because man doesn’t know.
If you think that I start arguing with you about the species extinction or red rivers and their significance related to prophecies, then you’re plain wrong. Many passages of bible prophecy are quite cryptic to me. Without assistance of some knowledgeable people I wouldn’t have learned many things.
If you want to tell me (us) something, do it. Otherwise, let the matter rest.
This conversation is starting to get personal – please shut it down. Mod
Yes, as Father Seraphim Rose used to say “it is later than you think”
Kind regards,

Or, as another sage (Buddha) has said:
“The world will end at the age of 6 billion years. The end of the world, and the end of life on this world, will not be at the same time.”

“due to abuse or fraud”
Protonmail states in their policy that it is impossible for themselves to read the content of their customer’s mails because of the strong (two different passwords) encryption.
How on earth can they detect an “abuse” then?
Up to now, I had some kind of confidence in that mail provider from Switzerland. Another illusion lost.
The “chain reaction” of cancellations is clear proof that the enemies of the truth act globally using a widespread net.
Right on target!! While reading, however, I felt quite lonely, since I’m neither a paleoconservative nor libertarian. But, I have to agree, the few dozen of us “old style liberals (?)” are NOT organized. We get shouted down on most occasions. I grieve for the nation that is sliding toward neo-conservative totalitarianism. Perhaps the Bolivarian revolution will still save us, but Che Guevarra was clearly correct when he advised Castro that revolutions fail because “old guard” capitalists remain to rot out the foundation.
Thank you Saker.
I don’t care about the word “liberal” too much. In Russian, this is a substitute for “asshole”, really. But I understand what you mean and I agree. I really wish there was a REAL *hard* Left in the USA, with unions, worker rights, a hard Left which would openly challenge the capitalist system and its underlying ideology, a truly anti-imperialist Left, and a truly pacifist one too.
I don’t really consider myself either Left or Right, but I think that a real, hard, Left is crucial for any country because when there is none, then the lobotomy is total.
Iran is a good example of real neo-Communism, I agree with Mazaheri on that. Then there is the 21st century Socialism and Bolivarianism in Latin America. Also interesting. The Russian Communist Party is clueless and useless, alas, and Russia remains a capitalist country, to my great regret.
Sooner or later we will rediscover the real values and ideas of the Left, not necessarily to agree with them, but to make them part of an intelligent discussion. But as long as the USA remains stuck with such idiotic ideas as “Obama the Socialist” there is no intelligent political discussion possible. I immensely regret that.
Cheers,
The Saker
Footnote: The “Six Million” figure always and ONLY refers to JEWS murdered. Other millions are not counted, it is Jewish deaths and Jewish suffering that are sacred. Let us not be distracted by the millions of non-Jews who have died in these Holocausts.
mostly they say 6 million Jews and another 3 or so non-Jews.
utter nonsense of course.
I do however think that somewhere in the range of 2-3 million Jews were murdered, and that is more than enough for any sane person to declare the Nazis as murderous genocidal maniacs.
Cheers,

“[Sidebar: here I have to admit to my great regret and shame that Russia under Putin is no better than the USA and, frankly, Russia is even worse in many aspects. The sad reality is that the Russian government, under the pious pretext of anti-terrorism, has passed many freedom and privacy crushing laws and that the legal guarantees offered to free speech in Russia are close to zero. Yeah, *right now* there is a good guy in power, but if tomorrow, God forbid, some kind of “Eltsinoid” comes to power there is nothing preventing the Russian government from totally banning encryption, shutting down “politically incorrect” websites, etc. The sames goes for Iran and China, by the way. I am personally lucky that my blog is not blocked in Iran – yes, I had this checked – but many others are. China might be the worst offender of them all: they now want to introduce the mandatory registration of passport data for each person using any social media! This is paradoxical, but the countries who are at the forefront of the resistance to the AngloZionist Empire have even less of a culture of freedom, especially on the Internet, than the USA or most EU countries. This is very bad news for us because that means that we are probably more likely to find a solution to our problems in the West than we are in countries such as Russia, Iran or China. It is quite telling (see above) that Roskomnadzor instead of providing a safe heaven in Russia for The Daily Stormer actually demanded (and obtain) that their Russian domain be shut down. Shame on Russia, is all I can say!]”
Curious where that comes from, would you mind providing the source?
what exactly?
look up the “yarovaya laws” for starters.
also, the Russian government tried to shut down the Telegram app
look that up too
really, its all over the place
you can use a machine translating browser to read the articles in Russian

Thought maybe you had been quoting someone else. Disagree about Russia nixing the daily stormer, and support the Russian action, but not because tds is claimed to be a nazi site. Already covered this in a comment up thread, so won’t repeat it here.
Charlottesville and the aftermath read like the old COINTELPRO handbook made public years ago. My theory is that it’s part of a planned ME war and the potential for chaos and draft riots in its aftermath. Many U.S. police departments have been trained by the Israelis for just such an eventuality and both ANTIFA left-Fascists and elements of the ALT Right are heavily controlled by Zionists. Robert Spencer, for instance, has described himself as a “white Zionist.” ANTIFA has held pro-Israel rallies.
Worth noting that “anti racist” contributions to the ADL are up 1000% since Charlottesville. And the SPLC will no doubt follow–a group I’d like to see subjected to a class-action lawsuit for its promotion of the “white supremacist” canard. Many of the people and groups on the right are white nationalist (most would be happy with a small section of the country where they’d be free of the horrendous one-sided black-on-white rape, robbery, murder and other mayhem as well as anti-white enactments such as “affirmative action” (racism) and forced school busing.) Nothing I’ve seen espoused by these groups comes close to the exclusivity taught by the Jewish Talmud, the religious book of Orthodox Jews.
I like to call WWII the war that keeps on giving. I’ve spent many years objectively studying the context of this war and am convinced that both Germany and Japan did all in their power to avoid it. In fact, Poland initiated the hostilities. Hitler allowed the British to evacuate Dunkirk in hopes of a peace. You don’t think it was just a “miracle?” No less a luminary than Alexander Solzhenitsyn felt the Gestapo was a kinder and gentler organization than the NKVD and other state organs during Josef Stalin’s reign of terror. My studies of the war indicate the Jewish population of the world dropped by 100,000 to 200,000 between 1935 and 1948. The Christian population over that same period dropped by some 80-million. German civilians and Japanese civilians were subjected to genocidal firebombing during the war and after the war some 9-million German soldiers and civilians were systematically starved to death or allowed to perish from exposure. (After unconditional surrender, German soldiers were not accorded the protection as POWs and millions went unfed and without shelter.)
My understanding is that many in the German military knew at the war’s outset that Germany could not win a war of attrition with the USSR and the AngloZionists. The only hope was to sway the British into an alliance against Russia–which was the original reason Germany was allowed to rearm in violation of Versailles. At the 1940 Republican Convention, there was a presentation claiming Hitler had wax-cylinder recordings of some of the meetings with the British and financiers and that these were played for Molotov and Stalin–hence the non-aggression pact between Germany and the USSR.
Well, don’t feel bad Saker. I once believed many of the same things about history due to incessant propaganda. Mark Twain once said “it ain’t what you don’t know that will hurt you, but what you know that ain’t so.” But you are on the right track in seeing that there is a diabolical agenda in creating violent left-right conflict, as well as racial animosity. In a world where history was not weaponized, Genghis Kahn, Mao Zedong and Josef Stalin would make Hitler and the National Socialists look like kindly old ladies. (I’ve read that Hitler ordered Operation Barbarossa after reconnaissance indicated Stalin was massing tanks for an invasion some kilometers from the border.)
Reading The Saker is like swallowing a nuclear red pill every damn time.
Whenever the zio-gay media makes a stink about something, rest assured it is psywar.
Maybe instead of defending zionazi psywar front’s right to talk govno, such as daily stormer, our efforts would be better spent exposing the daily stormers, the zionazi security establishment and the zio-gay media and their roles in manipulating public attitudes.
Yes I can totally relate to your article and the arguments you have put forward. I find myself in this meeting of the minds. Being a disciple of Gianbattista Vico and Antonio Gramsci I have come to agree with paleo conservatives and libertarians more often than not. The whole left right paradigm which has been highjacked by the anglo-zionist is all based on perception management. Political science 101 basic salient point should tell anybody with any grey matter that they way these movements are presented is false and disingenuous . IE: Left wing related to workers or to use marxist terminology the proletariate. The underclass the have nots. Right wing related to the establishment class professionals lawyers doctors conservative in thought and manner.
Ignorance is bliss and distorting historical facts to pursue an agenda is as old as mankind.
Vico rightly states that humans of any nationality have more in common than most western intellectuals refuse to admit. Universality in civilness and social responsibility is only one aspect. The groupthink mentality with in most aspects of education ,consumption of good and services has created a hegemonic beast that serves the anglo-zionist. They took Gramsci’s theory and delivers it on steroids to fulfil they demonic end game.
They I mean the anglo-zionist know they r not having their way people in the west at least have reached the crucial tipping point of 16 percent cynicism . Hence that is why we r seeing false flag events at record pace. As I have mentioned in other post I see we have reached a Marie Antoinette moment or the Emperor has no clothes. By sheer ignorance of the masses they can steer masses towards their final agenda but like I said since we have crossed that tipping point the masses are getting smaller ever but slowly but still getting smaller.
This article by the Saker is the first public wake up call that I have come across, but I have been mulling over the same thing for some years: the consistent MSM assault on Pedophiles (in a society which protects highly placed pedophiles) seems to be a softening up process aimed at the curtailment of Internet Neutrality.
As for the attack on “hate speech” and “incitement to violence” (by a society which since 911 has unleashed widespread hatred and violence against Islam and Muslim countries) this seems to be a prelude to banning scenes like this from YouTube, an incitement to hate Zionism if ever I saw one:
https://youtu.be/SOCtLE5593M
This is a daring thesis that I don’t think I would ever put quite the way Saker does.
My first thought was, “Oh boy, here we go again! People are going to read a finely nuanced logical framework in the broadest strokes and go nuts accusing things of being said that Saker didn’t say.”
To my amazement and relief, that expected reaction is absent here after 41 comments.
Still, who wants to come to the defense of NAMBLA’s or the KKK’s free speech rights?
I get the thesis and the fact that it has been thought through carefully and rigorously, but something tells me that there is one aspect of its incompleteness (and every product of man is necessarily incomplete….so incompleteness is just an acknowledgment…..not a criticism) that I’d like discussed:
And that is that the goal of the elites is total enslavement through MIND CONTROL and every one of the ideologies and belief systems they construct from scratch or move in on to coopt, from the most appealing to the completely daft and disgustingly evil, they will also prepare, like mafia cement boots, to sink individuals, factions and entire nations whose viability and possible independent will they may deem intolerable, or merely inconvenient, at a later time of their choosing.
Including ideologically, racially or religiously blinded people of ANY decription. Jews most emphatically, and Zionists as well, IMHO. Everything is expendable, except the secret, occulted means by which the mind control continues to play almost everyone.
How do they do it??
Their victims are more credulous, sincere, rigid and unadaptable to change. And are often very well disposed to “going down with the ship” after the REAL ship owners and controllers have decided there is more to gain by scuttling the scow and collecting the insurance (while killing captain, passengers and crew) than by operating it any longer.
This may very well include the USA. I think it does!
Though they are apt to carefully nurture a few resentful survivors for possible future use, even generations later, in a vengeful “comeback” effort. Banderites in Ukraine, for example.
“The South Shall Rise Again!” etc.etc. etc
I’m all for free speech but even it can become, in a sense, a “disposable patsy”.
And that’s what’s being done now. The real Satanists NAZI pedophiles will crack down on some moron pretenders, non-elite child molesters and the like, but meanwhile the Elites will continue to break wills and enslave others and themselves as well, to steel their ranks for sheer evil and if child rape, murder and sacrifice serves their purpose in doing that, they will do it and drink blood, confident that they have the chain of command of deployable force by the balls.
They have no need of the tools of proselytizing, recruitment etc except on rare occasions when they wish to cast a wider net for replenishing their own ranks.
All the rest, the Sams and Sons of Sam, Mohammed Atta, etc down to the White Supremacist leaders on the FBI payroll and so on are just diposable toilet paper, duped into believing they hold some greater power than the average schmuck.
The Empire goes down when the average schmuck is no longer a schmuck.
Then there won’t be any NAMBLA or NAZI Party left to defend the free speech rights of.
Talk about an ambitious “Paradigm Shift”!
Think Big.
@Bro93: “The Empire goes down when the average schmuck is no longer a schmuck.”
Curiously enough, I think this has been said before, though in different words:
“You must be as subtle as serpents and as harmless as doves”.
And this passage, which combines gnothesthe, alethea and eleftheria – three of the most beautiful words in the Greek language:
” gnōsesthe tēn alētheian, kai hē alētheia eleutherōsei humas
γνώσεσθε τὴν ἀλήθειαν, καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια ἐλευθερώσει ὑμᾶς
you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free”
Thank you, Doc for reading my comment and adding to my international vocabulary in a meaningful context..
For others also weak in Greek, the High Five, in Greek:
1) γνώσεσθε gnosthesthe You know, you will know
2) Αληθεια Aletheia Truth
3) καὶ ἡ kai he and the
4) ὑμᾶς humas you
5)Ελευθερία Eleutheria Freedom
Don’t ask me what happened to the verb “set”. Maybe it is understood without being said or written?
Oh, here’s the answer:
I pasted the wrong (noun) form, instead of verb form into Tranlator:
ἐλευθερώσει eleutherōsei = release = set free
It would be nice to be so educated, before looking into the Bible, for example.
@γνώσεσθε τὴν ἀλήθειαν, καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια ἐλευθερώσει ὑμᾶς
“The soul of the philosopher would not reason as others do, and would not think it right that philosophy should set it free, and that then when set free it should give itself again into bondage to pleasure and pain and engage in futile toil, like Penelope unweaving the web she wove. No, his soul believes that it must gain peace from these emotions, must follow reason and abide always in it, beholding that which is true and divine and not a matter of opinion, and making that its only food. And in this way it believes it must live, while life endures, and then at death pass on to that which is akin to itself and of like nature, and be free from human ills. A soul which has been nurtured in this way, Simmias and Cebes, is not likely to fear that it will be torn asunder at its departure from the body and will vanish into nothingness, blown apart by the winds, and be no longer anywhere. When Socrates had said this there was silence (Phaedo 84a-84b)
“λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ὁδὸς καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια καὶ ἡ ζωή· οὐδεὶς ἔρχεται πρὸς τὸν πατέρα εἰ μὴ δι’ ἐμοῦ 7 εἰ ἐγνώκειτέ με, καὶ τὸν πατέρα μου ἐγνώκειτε ἄν. καὶ ἀπ’ ἄρτι γινώσκετε αὐτὸν καὶ ἑωράκατε αὐτόν.
– Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him – (John 14:6-7)
The Saker writes like an invisible voice-over in the back of the room while Orwell’s 1984 plays out and the narrator tells the truth; explaining ‘what is really happening.’
It always works when the psychological and sociological designers of human mass consciousness bands together and skillfully create a common enemy. Then they tell the sheeple what to think and who to hate. It is a strong uniting force to those that have forgotten how to think and have lost the individual part of themselves.
It is also scary and sad because there is so much noise that we seldom can see what happens in the dark rooms in the background. The psychological sleight of hand which confuses the human spirit is thick in our world these days. But, it always has been so, just now, there is much more of it, and it seems that people are so bewildered that they accept the presented common enemy to hate with enthusiasm powered by emotion run amuck. They feel alive, and they hate, and there is no more time for positive and productive work, and again, yet again, the control fix from the Controllers is in.
A few consciousness design programs are running now. Do you see that the culture of pedophilia is being made common in our world? Even by revulsion, there is a slow introduction, and we’ve almost come to accept this as just another problem, just another social ill that we can hate. Move along now, nothing to see here. In this way, our emotional world accultures to an acceptance of what is corrupt and absolutely not acceptable.
The walls of the plantation get built higher, and we become more pliable and more manageable. The various empires win, and the slaves react exactly according to the objectives of the destructive design. We are in trouble. It is good to see that the commenters are with it and get it! This truly is the slice of hope.
A little help .. Kessagesh by Buffy St Marie. A fun and foot tapping melody and a story that is as old as humankind. From an album Running for the Drum, Buffy tells the story of the one puppy dog in the litter known as Kessagesh that always fights for more and takes more than what is a fair share. The word No is very powerful.

Google strategy is clear and strategic in line with American corporate interests
First you start with the outliers on the extreme ends of the spectrum right and left
The reason why google go for the nazis targets they go for is because most people see them as abhorrent and will not defend them.
Any defenders get tainted
There are websites on the left like that WSWS are being attacked. These also no one will defend as socialists and communists are out of favour in the west
What is the end game?
Who are the real targets ?
That is what your article does not really answer as it’s bogged down in too much content
Who are the real targets for censorship?
Pedophilia and satanism is a bipartisan nightmare in the US that “affects” the highest levels of government. It originates from the 1950s MK Ultra and Monarch projects for (group) mind control through MPD/DID traumatisation. It has become an international issue in July 2017 between Russia and the US.
This degradation (trance-formation) of the US is a joint venture of CIA and American Jesuits. NASA, Army and Harvard University provide facilities, personnel and training.
Targets are children from multi generational incest families, from foster homes, from government employees, as well as actresses, country and pop music singers.
Consumers and perpetrators are all US presidents after Kennedy including mafia porn king and bestiality distributor Gerald Ford, bestiality pervert and pedophile Ronald Reagan, pedophiles George Bush (both), pedophiles and sadists Cheney, Byrd (+), Leahy, Graham, and Schumer, as well as foreign heads of state Mulroney, Trudeau the elder, Salinas, de la Madrid.
The first NAFTA transaction was coke and mind controlled prostitutes, executed by Bush the elder and Salinas.
If you are prepared to forego psychological tranquility in exchange for a glimpse at the truth:

I would just like to say, that I have raw video footage of germans in a concentration camp, shooting kneeling civilians and then pushing them into trenches. Some of the bodies were still moving and they shot them several times to make sure they were gone. In this video, Himmler, was keen to have a go and was given a pistol, where he proceeded to shoot two women and was laughing as he did it. Now I am sorry, but please do not think that these people are somehow not as bad because of the victors rewriting history.
And who do you think denies these atrocities. ***But*** smarter people know such atrocities were enthusiastically carried out by all sides in WW2. Britian developed the method of using air power to wipe entire cities from the map. Most of these cities had little military value.
The british tactic was to first target transport hubs and fire fighting facilities of a city, and then to firebomb the most densely populated working class areas. When Britain trained the US airforce in these tactics, the end result was the conscience free testing of two types of nuclear weapons on the ‘sub-Human’ ***civilian*** population of Japan.
The Japanese and nazi forces did some truly evil deeds before and during WW2. It is the eternal shame of Humanity that the allies actually did worse- yet after WW2 the demonic crimes of the allies were ignored or passed off as ‘heroic’.
When a man points a revolver at your head, at least you have the chance to try to fight back, or voice your outrage. But when the allies cowardly fire bombed from the air, the millions of innocent victims were unable to offer token resistance or voice their outrage. The demons of the West specialise in taking away the voice of their victims.
When Israel carried out its nazi identical holocaust in Gaza, the BBC (run by jews) refused to allow the people of gaza any voice, but gave the zionist butchers as much air time as they desired to justify their war crimes.
Making it seem as if the victims never even existed in the first place is the perfected method of the West. The nazis were not even one hundredth of the sum total of butchery in the 20th and 21st century, yet get 99% of all ‘atrocity’ coverage even today. And the nazis haven’t even been relevant to the tiniest degree since 1945- so why do they still get so much coverage?
People who say ‘think about the nazis’ are really saying “ignore the crimes of my side that are happening today”
“People who say ‘think about the nazis’ are really saying “ignore the crimes of my side that are happening today””
Yes, I think so.
Also in C’ville. As I have written.
Instead of obsessing about the crimes of others, and their forebears, we should think on the crimes of our own forebears and do penance for *those* (if penance is to be done).
Katherine
that raw footage video has been showed again and again as follows : waffen ss shooting jews in estonia, whermacht doing the same in russia, in kiev, in minsk, etc. then the same footage being used to show how the same culprits killed civilians or partisans.
I agree with you but unfortunately we seem to be in minority here. Equating what Nazis did with Russians (or even US/UK even though I don’t like them at all) is BS, I’m not sure how to say this nicely.
It is difficult.
I think it is relevant that Germany invaded Russia and actually sent the Einsatztruppen in ahead of the Wehrmacht. So, these were for the most part not regular military. Members of the SS were self-selected, whereas members of the regular army had been called up and many were poor slobs just like in any army. Although they also did plenty of horrible t hings as they pressed forward into Russia.
It was totally wrong to bomb Japan, to fire-bomb Hamburg and Dresden. It is, however, interesting to note that one reason the Germans remained mute for decades about the rain of death and destruction on hundreds of thousands of civilians was from a feeling of guilt and shame: They felt deserved to be punished. I think it is Wolf Biermann who has spoken openly of this. For decades no one gave a sheet about what happened to German civilians in the late phases of the war. The truly sadistic fire bombings planned, I believe, by Churchill.
https://cs.stanford.edu/people/eroberts/courses/ww2/projects/firebombing/websitemenu.htm
My point being only: Perhaps the Germans were more aggressive in their personal pursuit of civilians in their farms and villages, to kill basically at point blank range—quite apart from what went on on the battlefield.
Katherine
None of the conscripted German soldiers new who is a Jew and who’s not in the Soviet Union. Who new ? the locals, their neighbors. But the didn’t taken just the Jews, they rather took the known (by them) members or informants of the soviet security apparatus in an act of brutal revenge. The German forward troops, being concentrated only on their military operations, were not prepared to take the role of policing in – for them – an unknown territory. The Einsatzgruppen were acting behind the front lines, together with many volunteers from these territories who spoke the language and new the terrain. The war is a brutal thing and the war against Soviet Union, being an ideological war, had been the most ferocious ever. The fear from many and constant attack by the numerous partisan groups made this fight to be unprecedented cruel. The partisans fought for their just cause while the Germans (simple soldiers) wanted to survive. The war doesn’t started for the sake of killing an entire population, that is nonsense, it was a pure military endeavor with the adding of ideological color.
@Katherine I don’t think it’s difficult, what you’re describing and (please don’t misinterpret what the Saker says and interpret it to your views. His post makes very clear his position on Freedom of Speech and the slow destruction of this right. Please also note the moderation policy. Mod) here to my astonishment is rationalizing (and justifying) the Nazi agenda and looking at it from a pure statistical perspective, or military angle. Nuking Japan is cause and effect (not that I’m fan of US actions in any way), cleanup up at the end of WW2 etc. What counts the most is what happened prior to that. Let us try and explain the equality of blame to all the kids that were killed w/o remorse and at point blank (as you’ve said), pictures of skeleton people in all sorts of concentration camps (not just in Germany and certainly not just Jews, that’s a myth, good old Germans getting rid of Jews only, I’ve heard first and second hand accounts of people that survived it, not to mention many other things). I don’t know about you people – but this is what I’d call evil in my book (and some other books whoever believes in that). Some of the kids here are just too young to remember (I don’t mean literally), we’re not talking about the Roman history or Sumerians, this is all within living memory with lots of accounts and records. And I’m not saying some people in the west didn’t have their fingers in shady dealings, but that’s at totally different level. And I’m not saying that what some countries are doing today is any different, in fact I’d call it 4th Reich, a continuation. But we can’t try and untangle any of what’s happening today by rewriting history. It’s like calling ISIS head choppers moderate and just fighting equally like Syrians or Russians, this world is going to fail miserably if we go down that road, but that’s probably too late if you ask me, we’d have to fail to raise again no other way.
IMO people are confusing their ideological stance e.g. communism, Jewish people – so an enemy or my enemy is my friend literally. Nazi is a Nazi, there’s no two way about that. But then and only then we can talk about other things.
” Nuking Japan is cause and effect (not that I’m fan of US actions in any way), cleanup up at the end of WW2 etc.”
Current thought amongst historians is that the nukes were unnecessary to the war effort at that time. Japan was in the process of surrender due to the complete destruction and devastation that fire-bombing of the cities had already caused (wood and paper constructions).
The consensus is that the nukes were intended as a demonstration to Stalin of the western capabilities, should he get any ideas of further expansion after the agreed-upon carve up of Europe.
Society of the spectacle indeed, that would contemplate such barbarism for such insane goals.
At least in 1651, in spanish records given to the monarchy, they talked about at least 20 million native americans dead ( from mexico to the south, not counting the north) And from that date the genocide continued , so its difficult to know the real figure. Add to that the complete obliteration and destruction of cultures with a millenia of history, traditions and knowlodegment. The conquest destroyed the indigenous cosmovision, identity and pride, and turned the mestizo ( the same people that composed the ejercito libertador, promised with respect and rights and , rapidily abandoned by the criollos once they grabed power) in just another slave, making racists states til this day. And in western Africa, they destroyed the Mali and Ghana empires and kingdoms, treated men like animals and deposed ten
from their culture and pride, to turn them in just slaves with no identity, till this day. So wich is the real HOLOCAUST? who were the real savages? The reinassance was finances with the loot and rape of ancient america. And after the modern countries of the americas where established, they continued with the genocide till this day (the mapuche people in Chile and Argentina for example). All our spitual legacy, the knowlodegment, arts and culture gone because of lust for power. The empire now wants to do the same to all the peoples of earth. I hope V. Putin will be wise enough to try to make real changes to the world system and dont just be the same with another king. The peoples of earth are awakening, but it is a long bloody path yet to come.

Saker and I seem to agree, generally, with regard to analysis and sit-rep. Good job!
However we live now, just now, in a time of icon-smashing, literally iconoclastic in the classical sense. Therefore I suspect that all “icons” must be suspect, including the internal icon – challenged to test and see if this or that “god” is of value in these new situations…and our a-priori assumptions carry precisely such icons… So, what a-priori assumption pulls my eyes?
I suggest that the assumption “resistance is good and desirable” is unsupported. Saker takes assumption from previous situation and proposes to attempt to apply it to new situation without review of value.
I am minded that when your enemies occupy both sides of the barricades it is a good time to run away, hide, smile in secret. Are they your enemies when they are blasting one another?
Who was “friend” of German volk in 1939? Nazis? No. Stalin? No. FDR? No. Winston? No!. Their best bet was to not resist, was it not? I really don’t know… But I think a review of the entire area is natural and good. ( Note: “best bet” may be a bet against long odds… )
Avoid defeat. By this stratagem ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty-Six_Stratagems ) your opponent is weakened and you survive. Of course we could say that is resistance, eh? Precisely what resistance is may itself be situational (it is), so examination of both goals and methods must be constant. I myself doubt that resistance is a particularly appropriate way.
My point is that matters are situational and so is the ethics, this is a time to re-consider and examine all assumptions, or risk reliance of un-working or now-defective principles.
I myself would doubt assumptions like groceries and electricity…(being available)…and consider that a garden might be better than a gun…sometimes…just as is submission to power…sometimes.
It is important to “listen”.
Pax, LZ
I absolutely agree with you, with the proviso that any westerners attempting this stratagem need
to understand that refraining from immediate action at specific times is not necessarily cowardice or lethargy.
Us westerners generally, have all seen far too many John Wayne-type movies or similar tropes to take such a notion on board easily. We are in need of some re-education.
one minion, & etc…
Permit old man a indirect post…about resistance.
Some may know the technical terms for the elements inside a vacuum tube, heater anode cathode and grid and so forth. Old stuff, but illustrative of a concept I’d put forth.
This is the Greek word that’s adapted to American Technical Jargon… (ATJ), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katechon “holding back”.
Inside the tube electrons flow from the anode to the cathode. Electrons carry negative charge. The flow of current therefore is from the cathode to the anode… (There’s an historical accident that accounts for this)
So, what get “held back” at cathode?
The cathode cannot emit current unless electrons come. If the grid has extra electrons fed to it, then the flow from anode of electrons is diminished, until it reaches zero at or near saturation of grid. If voltage at cathode (from the “load outside the tube) is greater than the voltage at the anode there will be zero flow. A one way “valve”… thus “cathode” holds back the “reverse flow”
So what?
Holding back is not identical to resistance.
Some may prefer one kind of resistance in some situations, whatever’s best.
Holding back is similar to resisting, but has slightly different qualities. Of course conducting is also sometimes appropriate… It’s situational…
and the term has teen colonized at http://katehon.com/

As I understand, the argument starts with two indisputably noxious groups, Nazis and paedophiles, and asserts that, if there is to be free speech, it has to be free speech for all, including even such noxious groups as these. If we allow such groups to be picked off just because we abhor their views, we have already “sold the pass”. It is a good argument, forcefully expressed.
Is its force not lessened, however, by taking a detour to tell us that the Nazis are no worse than other monsters? The point is to take them as paradigmatically indefensible. Likewise by taking a further detour to tell us that the Holocaust was no such thing?
Could someone say who it is claims that 6 million were killed in the gas chambers? I’ve read quite a lot of the standard works and not come across any such claim.
Also, why is the figure of 6 million for the total number of Jews killed by the Nazis taken to be so implausible? Eichmann’s Wansee list itemised 11 million Jews in Europe. There were half a million in Germany, another in Hungary, and a quarter of a million in Czechoslovakia. There were a further quarter of a million in the Baltics. There were three million in Poland. There were two and a half million in the Soviet Union (before 1939). If you add up the numbers for the Einsatzgruppen and the ghettoes and the transfer from ghettoes to camps and the numbers who survived the camps… Either six million is a reasonable guesstimate or millions of people vanished into thin air.
There seems no obvious constructive purpose in continuing to chew over this question. The article itself makes very clear that it is beside the point.
Is it not possible simply to accept the evidence that there was a holocaust primarily directed at the Jews of Europe (as well as other minorities and as well as other mass murders – for instance of Polish and Soviet civilians and Soviet PoWs – and plans for future mass murders – for instance of thirty-odd million (!) Soviet citizens by mass starvation). There is also a “Holocaust” as described by Norman Finkelstein. Is it not a mistake to allow quite proper resistance to the latter to become denial of the former. I’m not for a minute suggesting that the Saker does so. Some visitors to this site seem to.
Could I be allowed a pedantic footnote?
“That kind of arguments usually begin with “it sounds like” or “in other words” or “so what you are saying” etc.”
“That kind of argument” may well simply be an attempt to twist the author’s words. Alternatively, it can be perfectly “kosher” (in the colloquial, not the Judaic, sense). If the author uses an argument of a form he accepts to be invalid in other instances, he must if he is to be logically consistent accept that it is invalid here too. So, “it sounds like” should not automatically be taken as an indication of bad faith or an attempt at a red rag, but may introduce a perfectly reasonable objection.
There were no more than 6.5 million Jews in the whole of Europe in 1939.
… and three quarters of a million in Romania, three hundred thousand in France, one hundred and fifty thousand in Holland, ninety thousand in Belgium, seventy five thousand in the Balkans, seventy five thousand in Greece, sixty thousand in Austria, fifty thousand in Bulgaria…
As I say, Eichmann counted eleven million. Other sources come up with nine and a half. Where does six and a half come from?
The Nazis kept good records. They destroyed as much as they could as they retreated. The contemporaneous reports picked up by British intelligence from Einsatzgruppen to Berlin and of ghetto populations, mortality, and transfer to camps – to be worked to death or killed outright (as at Sobibor) – is sufficient for estimates. The opening of East European archives after 1989 provided further confirmation.
To counter the Holocaust industry it is not necessary to denigrate the victims of the holocaust. The Holocaust industry makes political propaganda out of them. There is no reason to stoop as low.
In the context of this article, it is a distraction that weakens an argument otherwise so persuasive.
And 2.2 million evacuated beyond the Urals as the Germans advanced.
3.5 million claimed indemnity from West Germany in 1965.
I despair a little every time I see comments on articles such as this along the line of “you make great points but KKK and Nazis!!!”
I don’t like the Daily Stormer. I think the way it approaches things, regardless of it’s excuses of ‘satire’ and ‘playing a character for a media storm’, is really damaging if it’s encountered by the average unassuming person who hasn’t taken any red pills yet.
But I still think they have a right to speak. It’s stupid for anyone to agree with taking away this right purely because “Nazis!” – think of it this way: at the current rate things are moving at, YOU will be tomorrow’s Nazi and I’d love to see you celebrate that slippery slope you threw yourself onto. That’s what this really is about – it doesn’t matter if you hate the Stormer, or Anglin, or feel repulsed by them and what they stand for. The people agreeing with your wishes to stop the speech of one group today will probably be the ones with a hand over your mouth soon enough.
Then there’s my basic – possibly optimistic – point that people are forgetting in all this “we must censor this, people won’t want to see this” ridiculousness that we are people. Human beings. And while we’ve become shamefully thin skinned in the current year, we are fully capable of taking complete responsibility for our individual actions.
You can only “incite” someone through a website if that person is willing to do what is being suggested. The onus is on the people who are reading simple words and translating it into doing the acts. And if Anglin himself has done something truly reprehensible and illegal, then by all means, let the law of the land deal with him. But in this regard, it’s only the thought police knocking on his door. And soon enough they’ll knock on yours too.
So we should put aside our personal opinions and knee-jerk reactions. It’s important to oppose what happened to the Daily Stormer even if you hate it, because you’re also standing up for your future rights.
On the topic of the brutal crackdown on free speech by the AngloZionist Empire by means of its ‘loyal corporations’.
The slow drip drip drip of enveloping repression has been going on for as long as I can remember, including at this site.
It would be stupid if just now, and on the occaison of the ‘repressions’ of CIA directed white nationalists, Thule Society Nazis, or psychopathic pedophiliacs, I should decide to make my stand for free speech.
I’ve been making that stand already, right here, for most of the last 7 years, and I can testify to the courage and energy of many fellow human beings, who helped me struggle against total enslavement, sometimes including the author of this blog, but alas, those who realize this space has been consumed by zionist ‘business’ plans and have mostly moved on.
In fact now is exactly the moment to ignore the pied piperism of those who wish to move you into a state of utter confusion, and avoid their recommendations made in accordance with tactics employed by cointelpro, to bring about the coming of a virtual demiurge and perhaps to sin ourselves into a state of extreme decrepitude, so as to lead eventually to the coming of a new ‘Messiah.’
Dear Andre, that back ache you’re experiencing is a sign of struggle against possesion, by the virtual small man homunculous Saker you created to protect yourself but which has taken on a life of it’s own, and is responsible for your all your hungers. Unlike you I’ve made sure to keep my viirtual demons weak, so as to be able to abandon them at any time, and I can see the time to do so is upon me once more.
So adieu Andre. I leave you now to your company of schizophrenic deviants and m.p.d. sycophants, and with my best advice to beware that spiritual bird of prey on your back.
Hard to follow this.

“Troll” in my own pseudonym would be a more risky and tough to defend tell-tale tactic than the tricky but more resolvable difficulty of alerting people to the Empire tactic of sacrificing their own assets, starting with muzzling them. And linking inconvenient other players to those “cement boots”.
Al Queda, Daesh, “ISIS” is the classic illustration…..as is their Current clear pattern of preserving some selected elements of it for future deployments. Too much invested there, to “deep six” the whole shebang! LOL
As to the symbol at the top of the site’s page, I think it is supposed to be a guardian against pests and trolls, and I doubt it is pecking away at any human’s spine.
Falcons usually sit on the leathered forearm of their master, but this benign looking one seems to be free to move about and protect the whole vineyard.
That’s my take. Sayonara!
Ah, the supporter of the Chinese slave factories voices an opinion.
I’m alright Jack is easy.
A “benevolent” &, er, lucky (or is that just Capitalist skill) property empire is the solution to a lot of problems (or, is it).
I’m actually very glad you brought these topics up.
The most amusing MSM honest admission I had read in a long time, circa 2009, was in the Los Angeles Times RE section:
“The crisis of the collapsing California housing bubble has brought two new oxymorons to Californian early twenty-first century English usage:
1. “Real Estate Expert”
2. “The Inland (San Bernardino and Riverside Counties which go from LA and Orange and San Diego Counties all the way to Arizona……) Empire.”
There ain’t no “empire”, leftist loser lips, and never was.
I’m pretty sure the author believed his own hyped up bubble assisting stupid articles from a few years earlier and bought a few “builder specials” speculations in new tracts of hundreds or even thousands of new homes in places like Moreno Valley…..which were soon enough ALL….I am talking 100% upside down, with brown lawns and a few squatters here and there among the mostly vacant 1-2-3 year old houses, street after street after street.
What there actually was, contrary to your ideological fantasies that have zero bearing in reality, was a ton of hard work for nearly 10 years, $120,000 in credit card debt staring me in the face when the market crashed, and missing a lot of time with the family, for a number of years. Including a 3 month trip through Russia, from the White Sea to the Black Sea, while I cheerfully worked.
I do like to work!
Also, my own personal residence was “upside down” $150,000 or so for 5 years. But didn’t default and didn’t declare bancruptcy, like most others in that all too common predicament. I worked my way out of a very deep hole because I realized that at low enough values California homes could actually cash flow if rented out, and competently managed. Which they very rarely do……and a successful individual assessed that I knew what I was talking about and he trusted me to invest his savings.
Now that (renting out and competently managing single family houses) will absolutely KILL most new real estate investors. Why?? Because of tenants! People like you, in other words.
And YES, those savings were earned by my partner’s brains and hard work (in industrial roofing) and they go by the name of CAPITAL.
Industrial, not financier. There’s a difference, FYI.
Now, I’m too old to manage what’s still left of the inventory, so it’s being liquidated.
Still, not a bad resullt under tough circumstances, but my partner observed we could have done 50 times better with 1% of the work that I 100% put in (….he was “the bank”…) if (he) had done Bitcoin instead.
In which case he wouldn’t have needed me now, would he??
Just now the last $10,000 of credit card debt liquidation (pay-off) is in sight, with the next closing.
If you have no idea what you are shooting off your resentful loser lips about, you might consider zipping them shut, instead of embarrasing yourself and your imagined leftist “cause” of “social economic justice” which consisted here of repeating the same link to a chart of economic disparity in Russia about 25 times, in order to attempt to sour people on Vladimir Putin.
Now, Martin from Soviet East Berlin I developed a real liking for, and I was sorry to see him go.
But your fantasy that you “mentored” him in political/ideological “truth” here in the Saker Vineyard, where you were invited to leave, once???
LMAO and still do, every time I think about that one!
Like I said a year or so ago (out of real compassion and agape!), “Seek help, it’s out there for you somewhere. Keep searching.”
Evidently you still need to follow that advice. I hope it works out for you. I really do!
And thank you for the opportunity of expressing myself on these mostly poorly understood topics.
G’night!
A purist.
Relax, have a quick lie down and rethink, we all need a rest sometimes, even from ourselves.
See ya later.
Support for Constitutional freedoms and civil rights
Opposition to empire and foreign wars
Resistance against the social and political agenda of the “coalition of minorities“
That’s the Alt Right you’re describing. Paleoconservatism is dead in America and Libertarianism is a joke. All the best elements of those two movements are in the Alt Right now. Also, the Alt Right is far, far more sympathetic to “socialism” and communitarianism than any other ostensibly “rightwing” politics in America.
Thank you Saker.
It is difficult to find such earnest analysis of global current affairs, and it is greatly appreciated.
I also note that within the context of the absurd political correctness, the costly lengths that you must go to to CYA (cover your ass) on being labelled, in terms of extra words, which likely for the average reader, makes it more difficult to reach. But I totally understand the need for repeated disclaimers.
Much like when commenting on American politics, I am tired of prefacing almost everything with, “While I don’t like and/or agree with The Donald, on much, as fair as it can be, he won the election, and dissing him is dissing the people, and the entire electoral process, but…”.
I guess we have to live with such seemingly unnecessary inclusions for the foreseeable future, oh well.
I am also pleased that you are pointing the direction/encouraging thoughts on direction to address the situation, primarily, private corporate pro-hegemonic activities, i.e. censorship.
So, I’d like to put out there a possible focused approach.
It is clear that the leader, in terms of size and reach, becoming a new empire within the empire itself, is Google!
I should like to garner feedback from community members about launching a boycott Google campaign.
Not just NOT using it, oneself, but promoting a boycott of it.
Thoughts?
Anybody.
A la Machiavelli, “offer your adversary a way out”.
I want to leave all these guys. If I spot a local coffee shop, I will choose them over Starbucks, all the time.
Like Rogue Roasters, in Grant’s Pass, Oregon.
Maybe Saker stopped there too???
LOL.
Work for mass defections, not obliterating all Empire personalities and entities in headlong kamekaze blitz.
I have a feeling lots of billionaires of the top rank especially are told to get with the Empire or their health may be in danger. Some love signing away their souls, some are less enthusiastic.
But do they have a way out of the trap they are in, as soon as they join elite ranks of almost anything??
Bro:
Thanx for the thoughts.
I ask for more of them.
I’m not sure where you are going with your final question?
I’m spending a bit of cognitive capital on identifying an approach to combat the empire, which is now so strong, it has active forward detection, and so many ways to put you under.
I strong populist just speaking the truth, could motivate significant people.
People want to be heard in our society, where no one is listening.
Google IS become “the evil empire” within the empire, if you choose.
People “know it”.
One day boycott would get some peoples’ attention, even if it just kicked a few points off their daily traffic.
What do you think?
It’s called duckduckgo.com
There is a campaign to break up Google monopoly :
https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2017/08/new-america-foundation-head-anne-marie-slaughter-botches-laundering-googles-money.html
Expose of Google – funded think tanks promoting it’s hegemony and the controversy ensuing….
Here’s something that is rarely reported.
Stormfront is a zionist psy-op, and its close down is a major loss for the Deep State- an unfortunate undesired (for them) side effect of pushing the SJW too far. So some good is happening as well as a result of the Deep State still being in a state of confusion over Trump’s election.
Anyway, why Stormfront existed and was previously immune from attack. A ‘difficult’ true story appears about another act of zionist anti-Human atrocity by the Israelis. This story can be used by enemies of the zionist terrorists to rightfully demonise the obscene nation of Israel. What to do?
Answer- publish the story on Stormfront with a massive headline, and tons of racist commentary. When an ordinary person now refers to this sickening warcrime by the zionists of Israel, a Clinton/Blair voter or Deep State shill in the forum will say to you “you got that story from Stormfront, which proves you are a nazi who must be banned from this forum”. Then a moderator bans you, and one more voice against Israeli crimes is silenced.
David Icke used to have a website with good forums. Then organised zionist terror started blocking his speaking venues in Canada, Australia and the USA, killing his finance stream. Thus blackmailed, Icke agreed to allow their nominated people to ‘moderate’ his forums in return for them ending their campaign against his speaking events.
What followed was the complete destruction of those forums for free speech, as the zionist extremists who posed as moderators banned each vocal anti-zionist poster one-by-one, using the ‘stormfront’ tactic. Stormfront literally acted as the ultimate encyclopedia of anti-zionist ***facts*** and factual reports, so any true fact against Israeli atrocities could be accused of being the work of Stormfront. Today the Icke forums are a literal joke- where the harmless raving loonies are all that is left.
So the Deep State has actually, accidently, enraged the mob to such an extent they are losing some of their key assets (at least for a time). And an enraged mob without an immediate essentail purpose is always understood to be a likely self-harming tactic.
In the USA. attack free speech, and for a time that attack seems to be working. But America is unique (by design). What the attack really triggers is a very powerful immune system. Forces swell across the nation to strike back in the name of free speech even more powerfully. And these forces also have a profound effect on the population.
Example- the Red Scare. For maybe two decade the nutters behind the Red Scare seem to have it their way. But from 1965 onwards the much more powerful part of American society who had been offended by the tactic struck back, and revolutionised American society as a result.
America has an independent alpha class not directly connected to the Deep State. And this class is an essential part of America’s success. Britain crafted Britain II in this way to escape the historical limitations of the motherland. American was designed to benefit from the ***second*** industrial revolution in a way Britain could never do.
So the Deep State, driven insane by the loss of Blair’s apprentice, Clinton, is going crazy at this time- but they will recover. The engine of the craziness is unpredictable Trump, for handling him is like nailing jelly to a tree. And this is because Trump is an outsider- not a career politician or even a politician at all. For sure, if they scream hard enough at Trump, he seems to go in their desired direction- but not in a way they expect or understand. Then, so coerced, he does things that are more counterproductive than if he hadn’t been driven by them in the first place.
PS the first world (Russia included) is seeing a push for censorship of the web. But this is the very opposite of what the Deep State really needs- for the Deep State, via the NSA and GCHQ, extracts perfect intelligence from the free, uncensored Internet.
A poor police state, like old East Germany, crushes the vitality of the population and has everyone guarded in their behaviour. A perfect police state, like the USA before Trump, has the people encouraged to speak their mind, and all the intelligence from such free expression is perfectly collected by Google, Facebook et al.
You only crudely squash your population just before taking them into a very major war. And even the most pessimistic of us surely doesn’t think Trump is about to attack Iran. But then again, the ramping up of Internet censorship could be taken as proof that the war is much closer than we realise, and a false flag on 911’s scale could be the trigger/excuse for immediate strikes on Iran. 911 happened when the last stupid dopey outsider was president- Bush jnr. And they had Bush reading a kiddie book to little children when the false flag went down for ultimate symbolism.
Nice ending, twilight, particularly for the pedophilia phenomenon element of this thread!
“And they had Bush reading a kiddie book to little children when the false flag went down for ultimate symbolism.”
He was nothing but a Big Kid, dumber than almost all the children he was reading “My Pet Goat” to (Baphomet reference) for the benefit of setting up all the childish adults (not just Bush voters) for another century of Mind Control.
A perfect illustration of occult mockery of the estupidos by the occultocracy at the very top of the Empire Command Structure.
Classic!
At the top, their commitment and identity is centuries long, millenia long.
You (plural) may be a very sharp cookie that is on to almost all of their tricks.
But HOW LONG will your commitment and identity last???
That’s their advantage over humanity.
Always has been, as long as history was recorded.
That advantage can be defeated however,
Pessimism of their victims is another advantage they have.
Take that one away from them, at least in yourself. That is one thing you can control, even right this second.
Wonderful comment. I’ve heard rumors that Daily Stormer/Andrew Anglin is also a psy-op, possibly designed to make white nationalists/right-wingers look bad.
We can’t know for sure, but that makes it even more important for people to push back against this and disagree with what’s happened here. It’s being used to strip people of their rights, while they’re too busy celebrating their temporary “high ground” to realize they’re practically handing those rights over.
Fascinating take you have outlined there, Twilight. This, in particular, is an angle that I had not considered:
‘PS the first world (Russia included) is seeing a push for censorship of the web. But this is the very opposite of what the Deep State really needs- for the Deep State, via the NSA and GCHQ, extracts perfect intelligence from the free, uncensored Internet.’
Not a fan of David Icke myself, but can see how appealing his metaphors are to his particular audience. Your story of his forum problems is interesting and very relevant I think.
Saker:
I applause your bravery in questioning these topics so deeply programmed into our firmware and connected to our most basic fight-or-escape-alarms. Some of those are part of my discussions with people: “you criticize Trump of being racist but love Obama who killed millions?”. That much far the programming is taking us. It’s not about praising racism or pedophiles: it’s to adequately distribute values and dangers, rationally and not by what the dominant message tells us. That brings something I think you should give more in-depth attention into your analysis of this topic: mass media influence to masses. Freedom of speech is great, but while media had the capability of being hegemonic or to impose a dominant message, then freedom of speech will remain a dream, and that is exactly the problem faced by governments like Iran, Chiina and Russia. The west don’t need to control speech because they control the dominant message, so dissident voices just get lost in the ocean of the unique message. Both are equally damaging to freedom of speech but we are programmed to only pay attention to explicit censorship. Keep up your good work!
A question that reflects my confusion on free speech: If Russia were to allow free speech, should it allow homosexual paedophiles their say? I suppose there comes a point where each of us baulks at the prospect. What then? Censorship? Who decides the cut-off?
oh lindsay, do you ever get off the homo topic?! This is getting SO boring. Homos DO already have free speech in Russia since free speech is something which is applicable to adults, not kids. Also, free speech does not necessarily entail that the city of Moscow has to allow freaks (yes, freaks, just look at the pictures from these parades) to parade their “gay pride” in downtown Moscow. Dressing and acting like a degenerate freak is hardly of form of “speech”. But other than this common sense restrictions, there is no censorship of homosexual free speech (assuming there is such thing) in Russia.
okay, enough with this now, please stop brining up homos in every time. this is hardly the best place to constantly whine about persecuted homos, really…
The Saker
Not to be boring or pepetuate boring exchange, but just want to say, re ” Dressing and acting like a degenerate freak is hardly of form of “speech”. ”
I do think dressing up in a costume or whatever in a parade would be considered a form of speech or expression.
A lot of people dress up weirdly, IMO.
But, it is kind of the point of a parade . . .
What harm does it do?
No one is forced to watch the parade.
The acting out might actually be therapeutic for all those who don outlandish costumes.
Katherine
I do think dressing up in a costume or whatever in a parade would be considered a form of speech or expression.
Yes. For Kindergarten age kids. Adults can use *words* and *concepts* to make a point or present an argument.
What harm does it do?
If you don’t understand the harm “gay pride parades” do to a society then there is nothing I can say that would open your eyes. All I will say is this: enjoy them in the West, but please allow Russians the right to built a different civilizational model.
No, I guess I doni’t see the harm of a gay pride parade.
Any more than I actually see the harm in a parade of Alt Right wearing t heir caps, etc., or the Italians with their Columbus Day parades, or the Irish with their March 17 bashes of pugnacious leprochauns (lots of fights and drunken brawls to avoid! Have you been to Southie on March 17 lately?)
It all depends on where these things take place, and whether they are meant to be intimidating or just for people to do their thing. Plenty of outlandishness and cross-dressing, etc. in any kinds of carnival parades, say, in New Orleans, Buenos Aires, or even Rio . . . Possibly such outlandishness is harmful to mores in Russia.
I am happy to be convinced of the harm of gay pride parades, but “If you don’t understand the harm “gay pride parades” do to a society then there is nothing I can say that would open your eyes” does not “open my eyes” or convince me! Sorry!
Katherine
My daughter who lives in a fairly large liberal city always brings her very young kids on a visit to my much more conservative small town for the National Independence Day (4th of July) holiday specifically to avoid exposing her kids to the debauchery that the Homos display and flaunt during the “Independence Day” parade and celebrations in her liberal big city.
The first thing a juvenile drug gang does when moving into new territory is to spray paint its graffiti on buildings to announce that it now owns it. “Gay” pride parades are no different.
Only if the graffiti are erased, or the exhibitionists dealt severely with is the implied new ownership of civil space refuted. Talking about it disapprovingly while doing nothing about it is only tacit acceptance. The gangs know this, the police know this and the “Gays” know this. Only stupid liberals struggle with the primal reality involved, because their entire education has conditioned them to reduce everything real to an abstraction.
Life is not really all that complicated. It just only works the way it works.
Okay, that wasn’t quite my question, or confusion. The notion of paedophile websites I find disturbing (as any websites promoting crimes against others). Free speech is something I reflexively support. How reconcile the two? If I were Russian, advocating that the government relax the constraints on free speech which I think you have said are excessive, would I want them to stop short at allowing paedophile websites? As I say, confused. Are you any clearer? I was asking because I didn’t know from the article whether you are one of those with the courage to be consistent and advocate ultra-libertarian views, or, like me, confused and queasy. By the way, homosexuality is a good example to bring up when discussing how society is to be ordered – because it arouses opposition in so many and thus raises the question very clearly whether the majority should tolerate only what they are comfortable tolerating or whether there are principles of toleration which should take them beyond what they are comfortable with. Liberalism has an answer (and actually-existing “liberal” societies have an answer, too, which you rightly satirise) – but you are promoting a form of conservatism in opposition to liberalism and actually-existing “liberalism” and how you answer the question of toleration is still not clear (to me) and therefore leaves the conservatism you advocate not wholly persuasive (however attractive it might be). So, it is not an obsession with homosexuality, but with minorities whom those supporting something like your version of conservatism have a visceral reaction against tolerating.
By the way, homosexuality is a good example to bring up when discussing how society is to be ordered
there you go again, boooooooooooring
you are promoting a form of conservatism in opposition to liberalism
you are what I call a “binary idiot”. please stop “interpreting” me
it is not an obsession with homosexuality, but with minorities whom those supporting something like your version of conservatism have a visceral reaction against tolerating.
Let me make it real simple: one more post like this (about homos or interpreting me) and you are banned.
Clear enough?

This comment is only tangentially related to the theme, but still important, I think:
I have been watching video analysis of Charlottesville. It was a hoax, created by the DNC and the Deep State. There were at least two takes of the event. You can see both cars here. Also, in this video you can see that the driver was likely a cop of some kind. He was wearing a badge, very clearly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfgCPhsvjcU
There are many other excellent videos on youtube, which I recommend perusing. There is an interesting video of Heather Heyer’s mom morphing into the mother of a Sandy Hook mom. It takes less than 1 minute to see the transformation. Clearly, they are the same person. I never paid too much attention to the conspiracy theories around that event (Sandy Hook), but now I have questions. Check this out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fvxf7JuXI_0&t=1s
Regarding the myth of “violent white supremacy” and the neo-Nazis, there were just under 4,000 victims of lynching in the Jim Crow South, but for over 50 years whites have overwhelming been the victims of about 90% of race-based crime, contrary to the propaganda being pushed out by the liberal (propaganda) media.
See this impressive article from the Sydney Morning Herald from 1995. http://www.ourcivilisation.com/usa/racewar.htm
Impartial government statistics show the same trend continues today. Here is an excerpt: “These breathtaking disparities began to emerge in the mid-1960’s, when there was a sharp increase in black crime against whites, an upsurge which, not coincidentally, corresponds exactly with the beginning of the modern civil rights movement.
Over time, the cumulative effect has been staggering. Justice Department and FBI statistics indicate that between 1964 and 1994 more than 25 million violent inter-racial crimes were committed, overwhelmingly involving black offenders and white victims, and more than 45,000 people were killed in inter-racial murders. By comparisons 58,000 Americans died in Vietnam, and 34,000 were killed in the Korean war.”
In 2017, the myth of violent white supremacy is a political construct, used by the globalists to work toward the overthrow of the United States. There are very few neo-Nazis in the US today. There are reports that in Charlottesville, the BLM, Antifa and the neo-Nazi characters were all seen disembarking from buses together. They were probably all paid by the same people.
Did you notice that at that rally in Charlottesville they used the same symbolic motif as they used in Ukraine several years ago, during and after the US coup? Using the exact same symbols and set-up in Charlottesville that were used in Ukraine is a joke to them, a way of thumbing their noses at us.
The Great Nazi Scare of 2017 is a fabrication. Such people have no support in this society, except in the minds of Democrats, who are trying to dismantle our society and culture in every way imaginable.
I like your article and analysis, Saker. I would just disagree with your conclusion about who is still standing. Look at the electoral map and you will see that most of the US is still standing. We call them just “conservatives”, in a general way. They have fully rejected the libertarians, so do not call them that. The libertarians are traitors, who are really tied to the neocons. The vast majority of American “conservatives” just want our constitution upheld and our sovereignty preserved. It is best to call them Constitutionalists. That is the group you are overlooking — the majority. They want sound economy, but do not mind some social programs for people who are really in need. They reject the social programming of the liberals. They accept all good people of any background or color. They fully reject globalism. They are friends to Russia and reject illegal foreign interventions and wars. They are sane, intelligent, strong, unyielding and very well informed and are, generally, people of faith. Never overlook them. The Left in the US is completely wrong about who American conservatives are. Their minds are filled with myths about conservatives — and all of them are wrong.
I love your comment, and those are great links. I had my suspicions about Charlottesville from the moment I heard about it, because it’s too convenient. And it makes me even more suspicious about certain organizers/attendees who are rumored to be controlled opposition as well.
It seems to me that most of these high profile “Neo Nazis” or “Alt Right” people are there to be as extreme and divisive as possible to make white nationalists look bad (as if white people aren’t already crapped on from a great height). But they’re also serving the purpose where the perpetual victims of the modern age are pushing for “Neo Nazi” voices to be silenced and then cheering when the precedent is set for big corporations and private businesses to do this at will, not realizing it can and will be turned on them too.
On top of this, it becomes harder and harder for genuine white nationalists who are concerned about their dying countries to be heard as reasonable people. The treasonous governments of these countries don’t even have to lift a finger to ‘discredit’ people who are already smeared by some vague association with the supposed Neo Nazis like the ones at Charlottesville.
People should stop falling for this – they’re being given rope and they’re happily hanging themselves.
@Patricia There are a number of YouTube videos offering interesting analysis of the car attack in Charlottesville, but I must say that first one with the gentleman claiming the driver was a cop is not one of them. It is not at all clear that the video in question shows a driver wearing a police badge. Blurry pixels, yes. Police badge, sorry, no.
Beyond that, though, I would agree with your general observation that the “white supremacist threat” has become overblown in the US. Mostly, there are a very large number of “Constitutionalists” pretty much just as you describe them. What we’re seeing now seems more an attempt to generate broad hysteria around a very small, extremist fringe that isn’t representative of most of America.
Interesting to point out 1) the “six million jews” trope has been used since the very early 20th century (look it up) 2) the “muh holocaust” drumbeat didn’t begin in the US until the late 70s- about when the European WW2 diaspora jews began to consolidate massively disproportionate institutional power in the US, 3) the “muh six million” number has been revised downwards numerous times, 4) holodomor and Bolshevik culpability (Bolsheviks at the time being overwhelmingly jewish and OPENLY taking great pride and joy in murdering Ukrainian and Russian “kulaks” who historically had been accused of pogroms in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that killed- wait for it- SIX MILLION JEWS. All this should make anyone with critical capacity raise and eyebrow at the “holocaust” narrative; but fortunately (for the jews) in many countries, it’s now illegal to even entertain such thoughts or make such queries. Which should make a critical thinker even MORE suspicious.
I just watched a video on Ernst Zündel, a revisionist historian like David Irving. Because he doubted the 6 million, the gas chambers, etc, they completely destroyed his life, most of which was spent in prisons or jail in Canada and Germany. He applied for citizenship in Canada and was rejected. He was forced to leave the US. The Germans pulled his passport. For one of his prison sentences the Canadians actually used a law dating from the 13th century to convict him since he had prevailed in court on up to date laws they had previously used. They burned down his house and destroyed all his research as well as his 6000 volume library. They destroyed his business and left him penniless. He was flown in handcuffs and leg irons back to Germany where he had to spend the rest of his life in prison except for a couple of years at the end. There was a 22 year ban on him ever seeing his wife or his family. He died without seeing them again.
These are just some of the things I gleaned from a Youtube interview of him by Jim Fetzer:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UkfrhGlmMpY
As a result of watching this interview, I realized that one must never question anything about the holocaust. It is better to force yourself to believe everything in the official version if you are starting to have doubts. The day will come when it will be illegal for any site that has a worldwide presence on the internet to refuse to divulge the names of those who have manifested any doubts about the official version. I took that video as a warning to never doubt the official version. Otherwise, it’s humongous fines and prison. Believe before it is too late!
Your words:
“I don’t know if this is technically feasible, but it would be even better if the service provider made it technically impossible for itself to shut down an account. There have been some steps taken towards this kind of setup. For example, Protonmail encrypts the user inbox in such a way that even if a Swiss court ordered Protonmail to produce a user’s inbox contents Protonmail would only be able to hand over highly encrypted files but not the plaintext. This makes me wonder if it would be possible to have one authority (the service provider) deal with the creation of one account but that this account, once created, would be technically impossible to close down for the service provider.”
Saker, I like you and your Web site but I get the impression you still believe in Santa Claus.
IT is insecure. Full stop.
Forget the security blabla.
Secure (internet) communication does and will never exist. Everybody who tells you otherwise just wants to carve out a business niche for himself.
What have IT security experts to do with IT security? Nothing.
Like what have lawyers to do with justice?
Nothing.
a lot of talking but no action on the resistance side. Talk is cheap. Nothing can be atchived without action so you, the freedom fighters are lost in the jumbomambo of peptalk. The enemy is very good organized and funder. You have no chance. They will push you slowely bur shurley to the gulag. History repeat itself, just under different shades but the base is the same. You have nothing to show as tangible victory. Your sons and daughters will be brainwashed and will curse you for not protecting them if they retain any sense at all. You leader at WH is a camelleon and your faith in him is a self delusion. There are many true patriots but they are not able to form united action front beside blabla.

Also OT, but I couldn’t resist to comment when I saw the link to “Der Spiegel”.
Quick disclaimer: I’m not going to click on that link. I don’t want to support this publishing company by increasing their views. I would be surprised if the article is free of any Russia bashing. At least the headline seems to be correct.
Now reason for my comment: In Germany “Der Spiegel” gained the reputation of Bild-Zeitung für Intellektuelle (for non German speakers: Bild-Zeitung for intellectuals).
I am not going to apologize for Der Spiegel!
I go there because they have good Fotostrecken (auch von Houston, zB), and to read some German every day. I have also been pretty appalled at the coverage of Trump/Russia.
Their slant on the Migrantenwelle (in 2015) and also the Migranten generally was/is also pretty obviously . . . slanted, also (today) on Orban’s demand that the EU should pay for him to build a border fence/wall. Actually, I got a chuckle out of that!
http://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/victor-orban-will-fuer-grenzzaun-400-millionen-euro-von-der-eu-a-1165573.html (great photo there)
I think some of their domestic (German) political reporting is OK but don’t have a deep enough grasp of domestic German politics to be sure. I would rather read Der Spiegel than the NYT or WaPo.
Katherine
If we do not read their stories, fairytales and lies and distractions and so forth, then we would not know what it is that we are supposed to believe… And once one realizes this, then reading their stuff tells one what it is that they are really doing – the stuff they spew gives a template in negative that roughly matches the positive template of reality and truths.
I read FAZ and Spiegel…and the ads and pictures are valuable in garnering a sense of our direction.
Especially because my intuition tells me that near future events in Germany will trigger the rapid or prompt re-arrangement of geopolitical sit-rep of empire…and will naturally be unpleasant. I am a weather observer, so to say.
Katherine:
I’m the one you’ve been responding to. My intention wasn’t to force you to apologize or to shame you. In the past the reporting of “Der Spiegel” was quite impartial (as far as possible). From my own point of view, they left their center left position at the beginning of the Millennium and started spreading neoliberal opinions.
Some excellent alternative news reporting and commenting about the reality in Germany are http://www.nachdenkseiten.de, https://kenfm.de/ and https://www.heise.de/tp/.* A while ago latter one started to have a few distorted articles in MSM style, nevertheless there’s still a lot of sound content.
*Aside from self created articles the web site Nachdenkseiten uses selected content of MSM and comments on them. In this way I’m avoiding all the big publishers. I get my fair share of propaganda through radio (and reports of colleagues) and that’s more than enough.
I am shocked and angry.
I am not a Nazi, but I used to visit The Daily Stormer from time to time.
Actually, they had one brilliant essay titled ” Is Putin Jewing the Jews? ” from 2015. That was one of the best analyses I’ve read on the subject of Russia’s role in Syrian conflict and the current state of affairs in the world.
If you ask me, this very article could be the reason for shutting them down. (And I am not surprised by Russia’a reaction in the mess, because that article was clearly exposing Putin as the enemy of the Jews, something Putin doesn’t want to many people in the West to know.)
Shameful times are ahead of us.
Angry Wend.
Rule by corporations, or by a tight marriage/merger between some specially protected corporations and government, is probably the ultimate form of tyranical rule. Do corporations have spooks? Considering some of them have revenues that far surpass those of many states, it would be surprising if they don’t.
The corporate-government marriage is by now so tightly integrated, for better or for worse, till death do us part, that one cannot even begin imagine how it could be undone by the normal processes allowed within the system. Only a social upheaval of cataclismic proportions following some “singularity” event might be able to do it. What the current system would be replaced with after such an event, is unclear.
‘Do corporations have spooks?’
They outsource, naturally. Kroll was one of the first well-known outfits and the industry has since then boomed.
Of course they do. But prior to the development of the modern world, in the early times of capitalism, most intel work was done by capitalist enterprises. Crypto was primitive, the math had not been discovered yet, and communication was dit/da telegraph. wires.
Straight keys, click click click with human operator pounding the code out at 30 or forty wpm.
Any people here do morse even at 20 wpm? I’d be surprised, and pleased! Because you know the drills, so to speak. Anyway the operators could copy the traffic. that was their job. and there were electro-mechanical repeaters about every 20 miles of wire, so a telegraph message might as well be public. Anything interesting or to or from list (nearly 100 %) went straight to GCHQ, including diplo traffic and commercial. Because the brits set up the cable system. Layed the cables. Vastly expensive and they were rich enough to do it. And the science of decrypting began to develop.
Commercial code books were used to try to keep things secure. You might even find an old copy at bookfinder,com of one of these code books.
But most spies were commercial agents, not government.
Allen Dulles and his good pals managed to transfer the costs to the government and the taxpayers, as, I suppose it also works elsewhere, but most spying remains as always, commercial in terms of beneficiaries and the victims. Imagine the bucks if you read all the emails, just for starters, talk about insider trading!
Now then, what about those put options at 911? Yes, the job was for another purpose, but there’s almost always a commercial trick involved.
The OpenPGP standard for encryption is essentially unbreakable, so long as the rise in computer power to crack the encryption is matched by a rise in computer power to use longer, hence stronger, encryption keys.
The GnuPG software libraries implement OpenPGP, and are free and open source, although you have to know C++ programming to be able to use them. Various free and open source programs already exist that use those GnuPG libraries. GPG4USB is one such program which runs on Windows and Linux and does not rely on anything being installed on the computer. The app and all the keys needed can be held on a USB memory stick, making it the ultimately portable encryption/decryption system.
Use of GPG4USB could lay you open to being accused of having sent an encrypted message, but there are more tricks to hide your encrypted messages by making them look like something else (an image for example, or a single frame in a video). This is called Steganography and free and open source programs are available to implement it, for example Steg from fabionet.org
So the tools are there that let any competent computer user do encryption at a level that can defeat the NSA. And the NSA knows it.
If you can’t get GoDaddy to host your website, why not host it yourself? The most secure web server, used by most commercial organisation and Governments, is Apache and it will run quite happily on any Linux Desktop PC, the main limitation being the bandwidth (throughput, in bytes per second) of your internet connection in the ‘upload’ direction.
Registering a domain name is unnecessary if you can advertise your website as something like “thesaker.is = 23.111.129.34” so people can browse to http://23.111.129.34/first-they-came-for-the-nazis-and-pedophiles/ without needing to use the domain name system.
Everyone should be making themselves familiar with using this software NOW, before its too late.
Can any method be found to discriminate between encrypted data and noise?
I am serious here…
Consider this example. I posit a OTP encrypt that is properly done, ie the OTP is never re-used.
The traffic intercept would of course be entirely random.
Further, I posit that psudotraffic of random numbers be transmitted most of the time such that 99 % of intercepts would not match any OTP ever.
Intercept party could not distinguish and would necessarily undertake to decrypt….clogging up the decrypt department’s massive computers faster than…and OTP won’t decrypt either – zero decrypts…it makes the computer into a heater….very expensive heater.
Well, ok, I get it, but what about PGP etc…
Essentially the same result.
I see it as ok to say this because it is obvious anyway…at least to the mathematicians I know that savvy information theory, so the goodfellas down at the nsa shop et al must know too…it was obvious long ago too, many decades.
But honestly, there are no secrets to keep if you are going to blab about stuff in a public space, as is all electronics, at least potentially. Like the fella said, if it’s not said it can’t be repeated…you wanna keep secrets keep silent.

If the assumption I’ve read about is true, then “noise” is the reason for making the “Onion Project” publicly available. In this way spooks can mingle with the crowd of people who want to surf anonymously.
Onion Project was unknown to me.
A similar noise creation to surf net should be easy to write…rng or solid prng algorithm triggering 24/7 random surfing from a pc…so long as there is nothing to indicate whether or not your pc is actually coupled with your brain. Program name ? “Dartboard”

Anonymous:
Check the thread of Dennis Leary, Anonymous and Bolt and you’ll know what project I’ve been talking about. According to some rumors even searching (and mentioning) the name of the project can get you on the radar.
Can any method be found to discriminate between data and noise? Stephen Strogatz in his book on differential equations has a brilliant example of encrypting using deteministic chaos. He takes a song by Mariah Carey, subjects it to deteministic chaos using a certain seed value (under the idea of sensitive dependance on initial conditions) and succeeds in creating noise that cannot be distinguished from random noise. Having the seed value enables one to decrypt the message. The seed value can be any random number such as the exact time of day the algorithm was applied.
So, he combines steganographic ploy to hold “invisible” envelope that contains the crypto.
Seems good, but also has some potential for decrypt by third parties. Seems like primary value comes from the steg part. If you can’t find the envelope…well… And if you can’t know if an envelope exists, then you would not search…(well, maybe you would not)
But that’s a lot of value! And it is cute!
It interests me that others also see along these lines…
(I know some mathematicians, but I am helpless beyond basic the maths of engineering and electronics – about what an old field engineer from the power generation business, turbine and controls might have.)
So far a proof of the mooted question has, so far as I know, not been discovered. Are noise and properly encrypted (OTP never repeated and solidly random) such that they can be configured in an indistinguishable way?
Thanks Jeremy!

Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul 2020 :)
Dare to dream.
As a long time libertarian (30+ years) I would have to warn you that even they are being co-opted. Take Gary Johnson as a prime example. He is about as libertarian as a hockey puck. Notice he isn’t being labeled like Ron Paul?
Great article. One of your best ever. As to solutions I’m thinking we’ll all have to use a dark web of some sort shortly. Then they will shut down TOR but I’m hoping some invisible protocol that can’t be differentiated from regular traffic will be created and switched to by then.
About the issue of censorship on the Internet.
There is already a way of blogging without anybody being able to block or moderate your comments.
Have a look at the chat box of theworldexchange.
It works by adding a memo to a transaction to the ripple block-chain, and is costing thus 0.000013 XRP = $0.000003 :-)
Since this block-chain technology is open source, I figure this can be done with whole sites too.
Oh, obviously formatting a link doesnt work anymore, or I did something wrong.

Thanks for the corrected link. That is a very interesting approach.
Exactly what we’re The Trump Values that you referred to? MAGA? The Wall? TPP/NAFTA? Trickle Down Tax Cuts for The 1%?
Trump’s campaign was a rorschach for dummies. Does Trump actually support the KKK or does he cater to his base? Did Trump pardon Arpaio because Sheriff Joe was a fellow birther or because he thinks pink underwear is an effective deterrent? Is continuing the Reagan through Obama militarization of local police a core value? I genuinely have no idea if President Trump has any core values or what they might be.
Economic Oligarchs/Wall Street Racketeers are one of my pet peeves. I honestly have no idea what President Trump’s economic philosophy is. I don’t expect agressive anti-trust enforcement is in his playbook.
Trump certainly doesn’t appear to be a civil libertarian, but SCOTUS hasn’t been big on civil liberties for a while now. Police don’t even need a hunch to do what used to be an illegal search. The Fourth Amendment was put on ice years ago.
I totally agree with your genocide analysis. Tribal annihialation seems to be a genetic/cultural flaw with homo sapiens.

As Voltaire voiced freedom of speech is paramount to a free society and must be defended to the up most. However, the skin head Nazi groups always seeking new members must necessarily rely on attracting attention via publicity, with rallies and protests, with hopefully mainstream news media coverage. Do we as rational thinking adults really want to provide them with publicity. Let them have their free speech but in a containment field so that they are not able to use the psychological means pioneered by Edward Bernays to draw in the weak minded and disillusioned into their cult. They are by their very being a cause of incitement that does not need any help from society at large.If they wish to hand out pamphlets and make speeches let them but don’t provide them with the platform from which to spew their racists ideals. There is already enough latent hatred to go around for everyone and the plutocrats delight in setting these brush fires to draw attention away from their nefarious deeds.If these proto NAZI groups disbanded would society be any worse off from not having this diversity of opinion? Can we not all agree that some forms of expression of mental processes can be harmful to the well being of society. If just law is the basis of societal accord we must define the fine line when some individuals or groups propose a system that crosses that line. Would we allow a group seeking vigilante justice with summary conviction and punishment to make a toe hold and seek expansion of their movement within society? The NAZI groups are but one step removed and their leaders no doubt have egos to match their goals and are the play things of the plutocrats.
Pedophilia is another matter again as those who prey on the young are doing immense harm to their victims as a criminal act and as such deserve the full force of the law be brought against them, particularly considering the vulnerability of those they prey upon. Any abuse of others of a grievous nature is strictly against the morals of all who hold morality as a virtue. Otherwise we can all easily create a hobbesian dog eat dog world.

If what you are saying is that forceable rape is a crime, then fine. It IS one. But if you intend the implication that rapists are “proof by selected instances” sufficient to condemn all child-adult sex (note that “child keeps being re-defined upward — the “age of consent” in the USA during the 18th century — its most intensely religious era — was nine years of age)*, you are peddling the same sort of idiocy the Victorians did with their claiming (in public) that women were too morally pure to ever experience anything as vile and degrading as sexual arousal.
The notion of sexless children, “innocent” (of sexuality’s morally corrupting influence) is nonsense. Sex is a basic element of life, and children (when not traumatized by guilt trips born of adult insecurity) do not lack curiosity about, or the urge to explore it.
Objectively, [i]”Put simply, the research literature shows there to be no inbuilt or inevitable outcome or set of emotional reactions to incest or to sexual encounters of children with adults. The more negative outcomes are associated with ignorance of sexuality; with negative attitudes toward sex; with tense situations; with force, coercion, or brutality; and with unsupportive, uncommunicative, or judgmental adult reactions.” — Larry L. Constantine (from Children and Sex – Constantine & Martinson (eds) Little, Brown, Boston). [/i]
You are entitled to your beliefs about this. But not to your own facts. And the contention that any and all adult-child sexual interaction can only be “rape” (relying on the current redefinition of that term to validate it) is a personal belief that the natural world laughs at (as do people who base their view of life on it).
My motivation in posting this is not advocacy, but because I’m allergic to virtue-signaling bullsh*t.

*[quote]”In literary texts as varied as Moll Flanders, Horace Walpole’s The Mysterious Mother and Henry Neville’s The Isle of Pines, incest played crucial roles. Nevertheless, historians have either overlooked its significance, or have assumed the universality of its prohibition. In fact, the eighteenth century had no concept of universal taboo, and the law did not specifically prohibit sexual relations within the nuclear family.”
Denbo, Seth J. (2001) Speaking relatively: a history of incest and the family in eighteenth-century England. PhD thesis, University of Warwick.[/quote]
Just my humble opinion, of course, but this post made my blood boil. I am married to a woman whose life was destroyed by a pedophile when she was around 10 years old. This went on for years because her perverted parents had encouraged it. Her parents accuse her of having incited her molester, so supposedly she had consented to being molested by a 40 year old adult male at the age of 10. Since when is it a matter of settled case law that children consent in such a situation? There is no such case law. The law looks at the difference in age and the power differential between the abuser and the child and always finds against the abuser.
I looked up the “authority” this person cites as an expert. He is an engineer and a professor of psychology at Tufts University. He is also on the board of Penthouse Magazine. Here is a quote I found at ZoomInfo:
“Winding back to 1977, when the Swansea university staff threatened to strike when they heard that pedophile activist Tom O’Carroll was to call for legalized sex with children from their college podium, Tufts University professor Larry Constantine, a Penthouse board member, (some “professors” moonlight for pornographers) was furious at the workers.”
Exactly, but this is what the pedos are pushing for: if the child initiates it it is ok.

The Saker rightly forbids anything that could be construed as a personal attack; discussion must be only of ideas and facts. But in this case, the overlap of the factual and the personal is complete. The personality illustrates the facts, and the facts elucidate the personality. There is no separating them.
1) Boiling blood does not auger well for your ability to process information normally. In fact, it diagnoses the syndrome the Saker described at length, in which a trigger word (like “Nazi”) is sufficient to shut down all rational thought processes in the programmed individual, with a flood of raw emotion overriding rationality.
Over the last 35 years, adolescent-adult/incestuous sexual interactions have been, by dint of endless repetition (the mother of operant conditioning — a.k.a., “brainwashing”), stigmatized as THE crime of all possible crimes. This, very conveniently for the burgeoning prison-industrial complex, has resulted in a flood of easy, slam-dunk convictions of easily managed inmates guaranteed to be incarcerated for many years. “Child Molester” is the new “Nazi.” Forceable rape and coercion excepted, the reality of the matter is completely at odds with the claims about it instilled into people by the echo chamber. But when has reality ever mattered to the Deep State ?
It may be easier to see this maladaptive pattern in someone else. So Daniel Sokol, UK Human Rights blog, Apr. 16, 2012 : “Julie and Mark, who are brother and sister, are traveling together in France. They are both on summer vacation from college. One night they are staying alone in a cabin near the beach. They decide that it would be interesting and fun if they tried making love. At very least it would be a new experience for each of them. Julie was already taking birth control pills, but Mark uses a condom too, just to be safe. They both enjoy it, but they decide not to do it again. They keep that night as a special secret between them, which makes them feel even closer to each other. So what do you think about this? Was it wrong for them to have sex?
“Most people answered with a resounding yes, supporting their “yuck” response with reasons. Yet Professor Haidt noticed that many respondents ignored elements of the story. Some invoked the risk of bearing children with general abnormalities despite mention of two forms of contraception. Others referred to the risk of damaging the sibling relationship, ignoring the fact that the experience actually improved their relationship. Others pointed to the impact on others, but overlooked their pact of secrecy. When one argument was rebutted, people plucked out another. When their ammunition was exhausted, most people clung to their view that Julie and Mark committed a grave moral wrong. Haidt calls this state “moral dumbfounding.”
2) Your wife has clearly bought into post-1980 feminism’s* perverted view of human relationships in which sexuality is always and entirely an issue of power and dominance — rape — never simply an expression of love. Being in an enabling relationship (co-dependency) with her, it is your role to “validate” her contentions. If you wouldn’t, I suspect the relationship would end.
3) There are, as you know, children who are precocious, doing “adult” things easily and naturally (such as Yehudi Menuhin’s transcendental performance of the Beethoven Violin concerto at eleven years of age). Unwelcome as the thought might be, it is entirely possible that her parents were correct in their assessment. History (e.g., Theodora) and literature (Lolita, Anais Nin), at any rate, both abound with examples of precisely such female sexual precocity. To categorically rule this out in your wife’s case because her ideology/self-image doesn’t allow it as a valid possibility turns you into a propagandist.
4) Where the rub comes in, in my view, is in the irreconcilablity of her beliefs (“My having sex with an adult MEANS, and can ONLY mean that I was raped”) with her feelings at the time (“There must have been something about it I liked, since I kept doing it and doing it”). This, IMO, is the crux of the matter. One of many worthwhile first-hand accounts :
( https://www.elephantjournal.com/2011/10/confessions-of-an-incest-survivor-it-wasnt-all-bad/ )
“I enjoyed being molested as a child. I liked it. I sought it out. I got jealous if my molester paid attention to anyone else. I was intrigued by being able to do adult things and knowing things that only adults knew. I loved being desired and I found power in my sexuality. I learned to be sexy at an early age and it gained me attention and favor that most women do not fully appreciate until their boobs begin to droop and their waistlines thicken.
“While I recognize that my reaction to childhood abuse is not the only kind of reaction —- others may act like people expect them to, hating sex, afraid of their sexuality, victim-like —- my reaction is not an uncommon one. The true shame of being abused as a child is that you don’t feel about it the way you “should” feel about it. People want to pity you and when you don’t give them anything to pity, they say you are as sick as your molester.”
As for Constantine’s meta-analysis of previous studies, shooting at the messenger does not refute the message. Emotions only override facts in the emotionally distraught.
You have my best wishes in dealing with this.

* It is extremely interesting that, previously to the criminalization of adolescent-adult sex (1974), feminist icon Andrea Dworkin wrote, “The parent–child relationship is primarily erotic because all human relationships are primarily erotic”, and that, “The incest taboo, because it denies us essential fulfillment with the parents whom we love with our primary energy, forces us to internalize those parents and constantly seek them. The incest taboo does the worst work of the culture… The destruction of the incest taboo is essential to the development of cooperative human community based on the free-flow of natural androgynous eroticism.”
Not so fast, slick. You omitted that almost all pedo events
involve grooming and minipulation, so your grand play of
condemning RAPE falls flat. As if you didn’t know after your
apparent investment.
Oh Brave New World !
Simple human empathy and warmth are now redefined as the “grooming” of “victims.”
You couldn’t make this stuff up. Nobody would believe it.
I am sure that this comment will lost among the many others. For people who are inclined for some heavy reading(for laypeople anyways) I recommend the works of Rene Girard and Giorgio Agamben. What the Saker describes is the scapegoat meets the sovereign exception. I have found a solution for myself of a sort; I no longer spend much of my time online — this is my first time back in three weeks. I use this newly found time for prayer and devotional reading and as an added bonus I am not tempted by the imaginary harrem ( i hope this is not too much information).
Comment not lost, but appreciated! The authors given, Girard and Agamben were unknown to me. They are interesting men with interesting ideas.
Brief CV for each man:

and this looked like fun to read…https://quod.lib.umich.edu/o/ohp/10803281.0001.001/1:11/–impasses-of-the-post-global-theory-in-the-era-of-climate?rgn=div1;view=fulltext
as did this: http://www.thing.net/~rdom/ucsd/biopolitics/HomoSacer.pdf
I suspect that your view, chimmy’s view, is probably correct, sovereign/scapegoat couple matches my own metaphysics of conflict – it is a resonant couple, ie kinetic. This is not a good “machine” to build, but diabolical. This is to say that by an entirely different method I get the same result…
And then we have the precise proofs…like the offensive and illegal behaviors we see every day.
today’s example includes the outrageous http://www.sfgate.com/news/us/article/Smoke-seen-pouring-from-Russian-consulate-in-San-12167619.php offense short of direct violence that I can imagine…of course this is for emotional results, but the buildings can now never be used again with any assurance that they are safe from bugging.
Princes do things like this when they intend to make war…that’s the purpose and that is what this is. I am astonished at the level of delusional illiteracy evidence by such idiotic actions.
Of course we shall be obliged to suffer whatever comes, but it is beginning to look like a very dark abyss – as it does not seem realistic at this time to forecast or expect matters to become Peaceful until after matters get lots worse… Bummer Dude!
As, I understand, things are in Germany, where people speak about political affairs only, for the most part, in private with close and trusted friends…as I understand that to be, so it has become in rural west coast us farm and cattle country – take this as a report… What people will say, for example, in a cue at the grocery store, reveals that they are socially and politically entirely disoriented and essentially delusional, while at the same time they are in the grip of Deimos and Phobos and the powerful urges and emotions these bring – ie they are in a potentially violent humor.
The only politic remarks one can make in this time and place runs to sentiments such as “I am for my town.” or “I shall support the sheriff.” One cannot explain the realpolitik, the “volk” in us are simply too ignorant and too bs’d to explain almost anything to them, and this includes the “professional class” far more that those who are working class (there are a few such yet). Working class volk ’round here are ignorant, but they do not believe the media or what their uncle tells ’em. They are inclined to listen to RT and they tend to admire VVP, and like him, see a man like they wish they were – an astonishing split between WC Volk and PC Volk. I remember Truman as President….and never has the country been so shaky…what was the nazi phrase that Howard K Smith reported Gobbles used so often? “einmalig in geschicht”, as I recall. Well, that’s what would describe murka right now.

The SLPC’S ‘hate map’ is being used by corporations to stop donations /funding to organizations that have nothing whatsoever to do with N@zism or any other fascist political movement.
The latest target is the pro – family Ruth Institute:
http://www.ruthinstitute.org/about
So any dissent from the prevailing LGBTQ…. Z
ideology is a target.
That will include all the major religions.
How long before Christmas is outlawed as a ‘hate’ fest?
Astonishingly a 12 year old boy, son of a pal, was expelled from his school, a public school, as punishment…punishment for humming “jingle bells” to himself in the schoolyard. This was “an aggression”, they said. Naturally this was last Christmas…in rural west coast farm town…
go figure. Comrade Elmear’s unbelievable rhetorical question may be all too realistic. I myself tend to expect a popular explosion of religion that is not under the control of the church – expect this is probably begun.
Naturally such an uncontrolled process cannot please the Prince…
So…
I do not believe what the logic and observations say. They say Comrade E is onto a true thing…
Cher ami Saker,
Je suis française et je vous lis toujours avec attention , car j’ai la plus grande estime pour vos analyses fines et pertinentes . Je me permets de vous écrire en français, puisqu’il y a peu de temps j’ai appris que vous aviez séjourné en Suisse francophone . Aujourd’hui, je suis comme frappée de stupeur . Bien sûr, je suis d’accord avec votre appréciation de l’origine du mal : la disparition de tous les repères voulue par les plus hautes instances . Nous payons les conséquences de leur folie qui a supprimé la spiritualité et le sacré ( et presque l’Eglise catholique avec un pape si étrange !) . Mais qui voudrait se trouver aux côtés de pédophiles ou de nazis ? Cela me semble impensable en ce qui me concerne et participer du même mélange destructurant que celui qui fabrique des transgenres et autres curiosités . Non, c’est impossible ! Je comprends qu’il y a urgence et que nous devons résister mais au fond de nous, et si possible en évitant la mauvaise compagnie . De plus, je suis persuadée que, selon les termes de l’Ecclesiaste ” il y a un temps pour tout ” . Le temps à changé aujourd’hui et nous allons vers des heures sombres . Je le regrette et j’aime passionnément la culture russe qui a tant apporté à l’Europe . De tout cœur je suis avec vous . Marie

Dear friend Saker
I’m French and I always read it with attention , because I have the greatest respect for your fine analyses and relevant . I allow myself to write to you in French, since there is no time I learned that you had been in a French-speaking Swiss . Today, I am a sort of stupor . Of course, I agree with your assessment of the origin of evil : the disappearance of all the markers as desired by the highest authorities . We pay the consequences of their folly, which has removed the spirituality and the sacred ( and almost the catholic Church with a pope so strange !) . But who would want to be on the side of pedophiles or nazis ? This seems unthinkable in regards to myself, and to participate in the same mixture destructurant that the one who makes transgender people and other curiosities . No, it is impossible ! I understand that there was an emergency and that we must resist, but at the heart of us, and if possible avoiding the wrong company . In addition, I am convinced that, in the words of Ecclesiastes ” there is a time for everything ” . The time changed today and we are heading for dark times . I regret it and I love passionately the Russian culture which has given so much to Europe . From my heart I am with you . Mary
Thanks, Saker, for the posting of the good translation, as my French is muddy-reading, childish, and not sufficient.
In addition, Thanks to our Friend Marie! I found considerable pleasure in reading her (in my opinion) beautiful post.

Since when does this blog care for Communists???
Doesn’t it fight them, too?
As for Russia’s and China’s central banks I found an interesting comment on Zerohedge:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-09-02/de-dollarization-accelerates-china-readies-yuan-priced-crude-oil-benchmark-backed-go?page=7
There will be no de-dollarization as long as China makes its living by making things for, and selling stuff to, the Americans in return for worthless and illegal petrodollars (as per Article 1, Section 10 of the US Constitution.)
China is an IMF member country and is thus FORBIDDEN to use gold as money, or even back its currency with gold. The Chinese will never back the yuan with gold. Goldman Sachs and JPM could have never manipulated the price of gold (and silver) lower without ACTIVE Chinese collaboration.
The Shanghai Gold Exchange is an even bigger fraud than the COMEX because unlike the COMEX it pretends to be a physical gold only exchange which it is not! The Shanghai Gold Exchange is only there to create the illusion of credibility for the COMEX by echoing thereby conferring legitimacy to the COMEX “discovered” price of gold. Just like the (non gold backed) Euro does for the US dollar “price.”
The Chinese are part of the problem and NOT the solution. The Chinese are the Rothschilds’ allies, just like the (also IMF member) Russians whose City of London-controlled central bank cannot even issue its own currency, the rouble, without first adding US dollars to its reserves!

Hi Stalin!
I have formed the idea that this is a symposium where there is no fighting, only sharing of peace and perception. Perhaps the site fights, as you say, Friend, but I had not noticed.
So, when it is written: “Since when does this blog care for Communists??? Doesn’t it fight them, too?”, I was surprised.
It was my silly idea that this was a place to share ideas and knowledge in a polite and civil methodology.
I wonder just how ideological the Chinese Communists are…they seem to be able to adapt well, and ideologies tends to freeze a State apparatus… How are they a problem for you, or me?
Meantime, there are Communists that join in the discussions here. This is a fact. So if fighting Commies is part of your agenda, Friend, this might not be the most fertile arena for fighting, ahem…
However it is a great place to get ideas, learn stuff, and watch the freak show of Armageddon. Nice people, polite, good moderation – why fight? We are just kibitzers…
Question, How do I know for a fact that are Commies around here? 10 points…
Best Regards, Friend.
LZ
Dear Friend,
> Meantime, there are Communists that join in the discussions here.
Most of the few communists that came here have been banned.
Fact.
The more so it is killing my heart to see when the blog runners use communism for pretending they are positive about the Soviet Union. They use it whenever they believe they need it, otherwise ban it. Often enough with the same arguments that the Nazis used. Such as “the entirety of communism that ever existed or can exist is no matter what nothing else but anti-russian judeo-bolshewism”.
That’s abuse my friend.
Abuse!
Ah yes, well, this may be a matter of opinion, but we are sorry about your heart.
What is “blog runner”?
Stalin has expressed some claims, but no evidence…alas, mere opinion – this is obvious, and I am sorry about that too. He may be correct, but a false argument, or no evidence, might tend to incline others to discount his ideas. Pity.
But, thanks to Stalin! He raises the question of knowing.
A woman told me she was my mother. a man said he was my father. they did lots of things for each other and for me…and a boy they told me was my brother. They seemed sincere. But! But what I believe about those people is mere belief. It is not knowing.
How do we know, or can we know, can anybody know, who is a communist?
I know. How is that, Friend?
And also there’s a fine example of straw man fallacy… as logic tells us that using communism, as (Raygun did to get his stipend from fbi, they say.) is not proof that man is anything at all but a user of communism. eh?
Thanks, Friend!

Saker should realize that Daily Stormer i.e. Anglin had a lawsuit against it/him. SPLC was losing this battle, and would have been exposed had lawsuit gone to trial. Anglin was successful at using his Stormer platform to raise MONEY to win this lawsuit.
In other words, Stormer was not infiltrated by SPLC, and not under SPLC control. In turn, SPLC is an arm of ADL.
Eustace Mullins explains in below link how SPLC would infiltrate nazi groups and then use them as useful idiots. It was dialectic, to then build up “fear” of white nationalists, and hence SPLC could then get more money. Simultaneously, this fear could be used to control normal people – as if the Nazi’s were the bogey man. As most people know, SPLC now has a huge war-chest of tens of millions of dollars, some held off-shore in Cayman accounts (not normal behavior for a non-profit).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVbmwkFRDRo
So, Stormer was not infiltrated by SPLC, it was becoming successful at resisting Jewish power, and also was becoming a viable model, with growing page views – I think 800,000 unique views. Stormer was slated for destruction and may have been the #1 or #2 primary target.
The central meme is to “shut it all down,” to bring everything back under hypnotic control, so that ZOG Oligarchy may continue its rent taking thefts unimpeded.
I am finally looking to break all my ties with Google and have had gmail as my primary account for over 10 years. I took a hard look at ProtonMail until I learned that it was constructed by the Luciferian freaks running CERN. Frying pan and fire. Think I’ll try Lavabit which just came back. At least the founder and CEO showed real balls when the FBI tried to force him into revealing his universal key under the pretext of going after Edward Snowden. He chose to shut down the company. Very good sign.
One way to escape the Pavlovian conditioned mob & it’s organizers is camouflage.
What people are reacting to is words. They hear the word and have an emotional revealation from god that you are totally evil. Probably the most successful conditioning word is “Jew”. They even invented the letter ‘J’ to facilitate this word. Since the word is designed as a deceptive trap, then one should abandon all or most use of this trap word.
It traps people in several ways. 1. People get an emotional thrill from using it.
2. It makes us liars and blasphemers when we use it. This is because The King of Yehudah-Judah & Israel says that those who claim to be of Judah & are not, do lie & blaspheme. So if we call the fake Judah/Israel to be “Jews” then we are blaspheming and are liars too. See Revelation 2:9 & 3:9
Blockchain technology is censor-proof if you have a large enough network of copies of the distributed ledger. The only way to control / edit censor the ledger is to take control or hack 51% of the network at the same time.
Humm ?? I have never stumbled on the Net about Nazis paedophiles ?? But I did stumbled about the judeo-boshevicks paedophiles ?? One very well reported was L Beria ??
Brilliant article Saker. I think you perfectly surmised what is going on in U.S. culture and social media (I can’t speak for the rest of the world). But, I have little optimism for a mass ‘awakening’ by the U.S. populace. I’m a native born U.S. citizen, so I should have some insight in to this. This is an excellent article, full of facts and little bias, but I could not share this anywhere on social media without being called a Nazi, bigot, any number of names really, and losing friends. I can see whats going on. I could see it before reading this article which puts it better than I could. But, they can’t. The majority of Americans cannot do this. Their conditioning is too complete to be broken down all at once.
First they came for the “alternative doctors” & killed 78 of them, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not an “alternative doctor” (& I didn’t understand, I was too busy watching rubbish primetime reality TV).
Then they came for the anti-vaccinationists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not an “anti-vaccinationist” (& I didn’t understand, I was too busy with endless repetitive sporting events on TV).
Then they came for the so called “conspiracy theorists”, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a “conspiracy theorist” (& I didn’t understand, I hadnt picked up or read a book since I was forced to in school aged 14).
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me
(& I still didn’t understand, the truth is I’m a bit dim – where is my TV?).
