DHS Censorship Cartoon - "Report Uncle Steve For Vaccine Disinformation!" by stickdog in WayOfTheBern

DHS tries to scrub its Big Brother fingerprints

Please spend 2 minutes and 18 seconds and watch this video.

Thankfully, someone saved this video.

In a short post today, I’d encourage my readers to simply watch this 2-minute video that was produced by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The video encourages a young girl - depicted in a cartoon - to report her “Uncle Steve” for spreading “disinformation” about Covid.

Uncle Steve had written on a social media post that the Infection Fatality Rate for Covid is “the same as the flu.”

For most healthy people under the age of 60, this is a completely true statement.

But, for the sake of argument, let’s say it’s not true - that Uncle Steve is wrong.

According to the DHS, Uncle Steve is a threat to public health and should be turned in - by his own niece … who, in this video cartoon, does dutifully turn Uncle Steve into authorities.

Right, wrong or possibly right, Uncle Steve can’t even share an opinion if it goes against what Anthony Fauci said.

As this must-read article shows, the DHS has now gone back and scrubbed all of its website posts that brag about how the bureaucracy is now performing “domestic” surveillance on Americans who are spreading disinformation. (It also scrubbed - or tried to erase - this video.)

The More Days You Live, The More Things You Know | We should respect our elders (as imperfect as they are, young people are generally worse) by stickdog in WayOfTheBern

Respecting elders deserving of respect, absolutely. Automatic respect just because of age, just like automatic respect because of any other criteria, fuck no.

The elders who got to their old age by profiting off of other people, stepping all over them, exploiting them, not having any skill or knowledge of their own outside of how to be a psychopathic asshole, elders like those involved in US politics don't deserve respect for being elders. They deserve prison despite their old age, because of all the shit they've done during their miserable lives.

Kissinger's rotting corpse never deserved any respect even when it was rotting while still moving on its own.

Biden's rotting corpse doesn't deserve any respect either.

Only by respecting elders enough to listen to how they made their decisions, including concentrating on where they might have gone wrong, can we hope to do any better than them.

Looking at how and why they made their decisions doesn't require respect. It requires curiosity and critical thinking. Analyzing that is what will tell you whether these particular elders deserve your respect or your spit.

That was a hoax.

No, those were actual screenshots.

They created accounts and followed the spiciest accounts they knew of, then complained that the ads appeared in the feeds of the accounts they created.

Next to ads from brands who would like not to appear next to posts supporting Hitler and Nazis.

🤡 That's why they're being sued by X.

Musk is lucky with the Judge. Reed O’Connor is a partisan GOP hack, appointed by Trump and famous for "anding down poorly reasoned opinions giving major policy victories to right-wing litigants. Probably what he was hoping for.

So by the time media matters win, it will be on appeal.

Might as well complain to TV advertisers that some of their ads may be shown to "white supremacists."

The problem is not who they're shown to, its the horrible content that is not appearing on x that the ads may be shown next to.

Excerpt:

This past Thursday I spoke at The Cambridge Union, the debating society at Cambridge University. The proposition was “This House Would Respect Our Elders.”

Below is a transcript of my speech.

Good evening,

The motion before us contends that we should respect our elders. I align myself with this proposition. Not as a call for uncritical reverence, but rather to acknowledge the limitations of youth and a recognition of the intricacies of the human endeavor that spans generations.

I’m a psychologist, not a sociologist or an economist or a political scientist. I generally tend to focus on empirical research about individuals. In order to form a grounded opinion on the motion, it is essential to understand what a large body of research indicates about the psychological and behavioral differences between young adults and older adults.

Many people believe, for example, that advanced age is accompanied by maturity and wisdom.

This is reflected in official policies that set age thresholds for driving, military service, voting, drinking alcohol, and holding elected office. For example, the minimum age requirement for head of state is 35 in the United States, 40 in South Korea, and 45 in Singapore.

Incidentally, the United Kingdom's minimum age for all elected positions is only 18, an interesting fact that may shed light on why this debate is particularly pertinent in this setting.

Moreover, a brief glance at those in positions of power reveals a skew towards older individuals:

  • The average age of a successful startup founder is 42 years old. The media-driven belief that successful founders are typically very young is untrue.
  • The average British MP is 51 years old
  • The average CEO of a Fortune 100 company is 57 years old
  • The average age at the time of hire among S&P 500 company CEOs is 58 years old
  • The average age of G20 world leaders is 62 years old
  • The average U.S. senator is 64 years old
  • The average member of the House of Lords is 71 years old

And the current president of the United States is one-hundred and ninety-six years old.

Scapegoating and the Road to Political Persecution | “Humanity is arming itself, in dread and fascinated horror, for a stupendous crime.” Carl Jung | “A common perception of totalitarians is that their target group are vermin or a virus.” Donald Dutton (author of "The Psychology of Genocide") by stickdog in WayOfTheBern

[–]stickdog[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Excerpt:

While we cannot create a heaven on earth, we can create a hell and history is full of examples. Many of these man-made hells are the result of war and conquest, but many others are the result of governments persecuting their own people. Be it the Gulags of the Soviet Union, the killing fields of Cambodia, the Nazi concentration camps, the genocide of the Tutsis in Rwanda, or the Cultural Revolution in China, power-hungry political leaders are responsible for the deaths of millions of people in the 20th century.

How much have we learned from these recent horrors? Could a modern democratic government commit a political persecution and kill a portion of its own population? In this video we are going to explore how this risk is high in any society that is naïve and sheepish enough to permit the rise of totalitarian rule.

“. . .the totalitarian hell proves only that the power of man is greater than they ever dared to think, and that man can realize hellish fantasies without making the sky fall or the earth open.”

Hannah Arendt, Origins of Totalitarianism

To achieve its ideological ends a totalitarian government mobilizes all the mechanisms of the state to exert a strict top-down control of the populace, a mass surveillance system is put in place, and all aspects of life become politicized.

In the 20th century Nazism was the ideology that drove totalitarianism in Germany, it was Fascism in Italy, while in Asia and other parts of Europe it was Communism. Today a new totalitarian ideology appears to be taking root. This ideology is built on the belief that at current population levels human beings are parasitic creatures, and if allowed to be free, will run roughshod over mother earth. Harmony can be returned to our planet, and ecological disaster averted, but only if certain politicians and bureaucrats are granted the power to control our lives. What to eat, what type of energy to use, where to work, how to spend one’s recreation time, how many children to have, and where one travels – all these questions are to be answered by the totalitarian ruling class, not by free individuals planning their lives within the law and order of a free society.

“The controlling mind [of the totalitarian] foresees a paradise in which every action and every object is monitored, labeled, and controlled. There will be no room for any bad thing to exist. Nothing and no one will be out of place.”

Charles Eisenstein, Fascism and the Antifestival

Will we in the modern world allow another group of sick minds the opportunity to remake society in the image of a deluded ideology? Will we permit the rise of totalitarian rule? If we do the result will be same as it was in the 20th century, society will be destroyed, poverty will be the norm, and many people will be killed. To understand why every time totalitarianism is tried it devolves into mass killings by the government in power, we must examine the mind of the totalitarian politician and bureaucrat. For when we understand the pathologies that afflict these individuals it will be clear why totalitarians will drive society into ruin before abandoning course and admitting failure.

A first characteristic of the politicians and bureaucrats who make up the totalitarian government is that they are deluded true believers in their ideology. They are convinced, in other words, that what they are trying to accomplish is for the good of humanity and that society would be worse off absent their rule. The totalitarian mind is similar to the schizophrenic mind. It believes the web of delusions in which it is caught; it sticks to its ideological model of the world in the face of disconfirming evidence; and it tends to hate those who try to pierce its illusions.

A second characteristic of totalitarians is that they hold a contemptuous view of the masses and see normal men and women as inferior and incapable of making good choices. For their own good, it follows, and for the good of mother earth, the masses must obey the government. Totalitarians also tend to view the masses as unneeded, in such large numbers, for the realization of their ideological aims and so view whole segments of the populace as useless eaters who are overpopulating the world.

“Only where great masses are [viewed as] superfluous. . .is totalitarian rule. . .at all possible.”

Hannah Arendt, Origins of Totalitarianism

A further characteristic of totalitarians is their tendency to judge moral issues through a utilitarian lens. When making policy decisions, in other words, totalitarians tend to use the criteria of the greatest good, for the greatest number of people as the justification for their actions. Individual rights matter little to the utilitarian, what matters is the good of the collective and to the totalitarian the good of the collective always means achieving its ideological ends. This utilitarian approach to moral issues is reflective of a very disturbed mind, or as Iain McGilchrist explains:

“The tendency to adopt a calculating and utilitarian approach in judging moral issues is more marked in those with reduced aversion to harming others, lower trait empathy, higher psychoticism (which is itself characterised by reduced empathy and emotional blunting). . .and greater Machiavellianism. It is also characteristic of the moral thinking of psychopaths. . .”

Iain McGilchrist, The Matter with Things

A deluded true believer in a utopian ideology, viewing him or herself as a superior being, seeing the world as overpopulated, and judging moral issues through a utilitarian lens, such is the mind of a totalitarian, and such is a mind capable of committing a mass atrocity. After totalitarians have taken power, all that is needed to initiate the process of political persecution is the inevitable failure of their rule. And fail they will, as all attempts to control society in a strict top-down manner are doomed from the start. The more order the totalitarians try to impose on a society the more chaos they create, and with such chaos comes a never-ending series of crises. But when the crises come instead of admitting that the fault lies with their rule, totalitarians deflect blame to others through the process of scapegoating. For as true believers totalitarians never consider the possibility that the crisis is a by-product of trying to force a deluded ideology on society through top-down control. Rather they convince themselves, and strive to convince others, that responsibility for the crisis lies elsewhere.

Chauvin could have just spent more time in his squad car and Floyd would have died before the EMT arrived regardless.

The cause of death was a complication of how he was restrained and his neck was compressed, which stopped his heart. If Chauvin wasn't kneeling on his neck while he passed out and then kept kneeling on his next until he died, he wouldn't have died that day.

When the paying EMT approached, they didn't let her help. Probably Floyd was already dead by then, by Chauvin and his colleagues made absolutely sure.

When he was first running for election I asked my mother-in-law "Who are you voting for?" She answered "Trudeau!" When I asked why her answer was "Because he is SO HANDSOME!"

Sadly, it's people like this that put him in power. I'm not dunking on my mother-in-law, it's simply a reflection of how she and people like her think when it comes to electing people.

Anyway, he is done now. It's just a matter of time. Even the most favorable of polls show him losing by a landslide. Unless the current opposition leaders makes a huge blunder he is a shoe in for the next Prime Minister.

We are in what is called a minority government. It means the government doesn't have 50% of the seats in our house of commons. If they (Trudeaus liberals) put forth legislation and all the different parties gang up and vote against it they will out vote the government and it will force an election right away. The issue is Trudeau is in an alliance with a party called NDP and together they have enough votes to surpass the 50% threshold. Either that alliance fails and we get an early election (This has happened in the past) or we have to wait him out for the next two years...

The "Debt Spiral" End Game | James Lavish by penelopepnortney in WayOfTheBern

(continued, because of SaidIt's stupid character limits)

The 30-year (Treasury) bond auction we had a few weeks ago was absolutely abysmal and it was a preview of what the Treasury is facing. We're borrowing so much that the likelihood we're going to have a tsunami of debt in the near future is rising every day we run the kind of deficits we have.

The US Treasury and US dollar are the global reserve asset and the global reserve currency, which gives us a very long runway on this debt issue. It doesn't mean it solves it, but it does give the Fed and the Treasury a whole lot of rope to keep playing this game.

The Treasury isn't deciding the spending, they just have to figure out a way to facilitate all this government spending and operate in that budget. The way they've been doing it is issuing debt. So they put out a report in February of this year, it's basically "the state of the Treasury, how we're doing" and the subtitle was "an unsustainable fiscal path." I believe they took it down recently. They showed a chart that showed how quickly debt to GDP was rising. It was a red flag for the government to say, "we can't keep doing this, at some point this breaks and we enter some kind of hyperinflation because of a loss of confidence in our currency."

You look back and when did this start? In 1971, when Nixon officially took us off the gold standard and we got Saudi Arabia to agree to transact the sale of its oil in US dollars. That makes other countries that are energy-dependent have to hold US Treasuries in order to have access to dollars at all times so they can buy that oil. So they sell their Treasuries, get the dollars and buy the oil.

But the world is waking up and you're hearing frustration from countries like Brazil and Saudi Arabia and India and Russia, the BRICS. They don't want to be beholden to the US dollar anymore because they know we're running these huge deficits and have no choice but to have long-term, perpetual, structural inflation. Inflation that we don't admit to, and that's the biggest problem.

We're starting to feel it across the economy, individuals are starting to feel it. Every day there's thousands of videos of people on social media saying "I don't know how people are making it, everything is costing so much. Who has a job that pays them enough to buy food that costs this much, or houses or cars that cost this much?" So it's becoming a problem internally and that's a big red flag for us.

Back in the 80s we had a similar inflation problem but because we were running 30% debt to GDP, Volcker was able to raise interest rates up to 20%. That's not an option now, now we're running debt to GDP of 130%, deficits of about $2 trillion, interest payments of $1 trillion.

The way I look at it is that we're in a debt spiral and we can't get out of it. When you're running such large deficits, what are your choices as a government? Either austerity, which is cutting expenses, but that's political suicide; each party is trying to trick the other into doing something like that because it loses the confidence of their constituents and they lose votes, so neither party is going to do it.

Second, you could raise taxes. But the reality is when you do that you disincentivize investment in those companies; you disincentivize research and development; you disable the ability of companies to expand on their product line, to expand into new products, to hire more people, to pay people more. So even when you raise taxes and get more money in, the revenue is smaller so you end up getting to the same place.

Third, you can issue more debt. When debt matures in this country, we don't have the money to pay back what we borrowed. So we have to issue more debt to have the money to pay the principal back on the earlier debt, and we hope that investor we pay back turns around and invests in the new debt. That's why you're seeing the debt grow and grow. $2.4 trillion in debt we've issued in 5 months.

The other option: you can default on your debt; you can declare you're only going to pay 50% of what you owe - we've seen this happen in countries that have gotten into this debt spiral problem. But why would a country that issues debt in the same currency it can print? You wouldn't. You'd just print more money and monetize your debt.

The last option and the one we're obviously going to implement is a soft default. That's having high perpetual, structural inflation forever. That enables you to grow your GDP nomimally - those are on your fake dollars because now you have more dollars in the system. You've got inflation of prices but there's more money in the system. So those dollars you borrowed 10 years ago on that debt, now you're going to pay that back but you're using dollars that are cheaper, they're worth less because there's more of them out there.

The people who lose are the ones whose real wages aren't really keeping up. So, who is that? It's the ones who don't have any assets; they don't have any debt so they're not benefiting from paying back cheaper dollars; but also they're being hurt by this hidden inflation. You can't tell me that the price of goods and services over the last couple of years are only up 12% or something. The CPI numbers are absolutely being manipulated.

So the issue is, are those metrics true? Are the low-wage earners, the real wages, really keeping up with inflation? Because if you ask anyone at the lower end of that eschelon, you'll likely be told "no." The other thing is, how many jobs do they have to work in order to keep up with that inflation?

The Fed oversees stable pricing in the system, i.e., that we don't have inflation or deflation that runs out of control. And they want full employment. That supposedly is their two mandates. In reality - go to first principles - why do we need stable pricing? Because we need confidence in the dollar. Okay, who are they answering to? They're answering to the Treasury. The Treasury needs a stable dollar because they need to keep borrowing, to keep issuing debt; they need to be sure they have that avenue to facilitate all the spending that's going on in Washington. When real inflation, true inflation, is so high that people don't want to hold dollars anymore, that's when lack of confidence in the dollar happens.

This is the problem and what maddens me: when you have the manipulation of money and you continually go in these ebbs and flows of the economy and then you get into one of these downturns, who gets hurt the most? Who loses their job? Typically you have a swathe of wage earners that aren't critical to a company that get laid off, so all those layoffs in a recession winds up just doling out economic pain across the board.

So we've been conditioned that the Fed and Treasury are going to make sure large companies don't fail; that large banks don't fail; that the market doesn't melt down; that the Treasury market stays liquid, even if it means they have to dump liquidity in to make sure of it. And who makes out from that? The ones closest to the liquidity spigot are the ones who benefit the most. So, asset owners. People who own large houses, gold, bitcoin - they're going to benefit in this cycle IMO.

(they discuss bitcoin a good bit at the end of the video for those who are interested)

The "Debt Spiral" End Game | James Lavish by penelopepnortney in WayOfTheBern

[–]penelopepnortney[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Highlights, James Lavish speaking:

There's a lot of confusion about what's going on in the economy. The information we get from the Fed and the Bureau of Labor is a little obfuscated, so when you get CPI they break out components that are kind of critical to the everyday person, like housing and energy and food costs, and they call it a core inflation indicator. They give you numbers that may not match up with reality.

Consumers have had a lot of cash on hand and part of that is because of the stimulus checks and the programs the Fed ran during the pandemic, just handing out money to a lot of small companies and people. But that's running out so now you see consumer credit at all time highs, you're starting to see that delinquencies are up and the younger generations under pressure. But I was reading this morning on Bloomberg that the interest payments have surged, it's almost like a cliff face, that personal interest payments as a percentage of income are now up where they were right before the great financial crisis (2008). You can see it spike every single time before a recession and though we haven't seen "a recession" yet I fully believe it's coming.

What the Fed likes to point to is "the job market is still strong and the jobless rate is still near historic lows." But the reality is they're rising; the other reality is that jobless rates don't spike until after a recession starts, you'll see it spike every single time when a recession starts.

Now you look at the market and we've got seven stocks - the Magnificent Seven - that have been driving the S&P 500 for months now, ever since the AI hype. And there is some reality around this, Nvidia is selling a lot of chips because a certain type of processor is needed for these AI processes... they're the ones with the highly skewed P/E ratios (price/earnings).

I believe we're headed into a recession. The question is, how hard are we going to land, how deep is it going to go, how long is it going to last?

Housing prices have stayed high because they aren't selling. Because who wants to sell their house, even if it's greatly appreciated in price, and give up their 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 interest rate on that house in order to buy another house that would likely be smaller for the same price at an 8% interest rate?

The other thing is we've been running massive deficits and that's inflationary. Debt in and of itself isn't a bad thing, if you can use it responsibly and borrow an amount that makes sense, then no harm no foul. But the government isn't doing that.

We got into the position at the end of May, early June, where we were about to trip the debt ceiling. So instead of trying to figure out how to lower expenses, we just kicked the can down the road on the debt ceiling, put a moratorium on it and now we don't really have one. Between then (May/June) and now, we've added over $2 trillion in debt. The government spending has been massive and that's going to come home to roost.
