Pablo Picasso Woman in an armchair (Olga) 1922 • Trump Says He Wants To Talk To Putin (RT) • Trump Could End US-Supported Long-Range Strikes on

One dimensional thinking in a 4 dimensional world.
Putin has won with his approach
PCR as instigator, trouble maker, “Hey, why don’t you two countries go at it and fight, I’ll watch from over here at a safe distance!”
What yer saling, I’m not buying
Your ‘brand’ is dead PCR, go bury it
December 18, 2024 at 11:46 am #177217OroborosParticipantDecember 18, 2024 at 11:47 am #177218Dr. DParticipant“After Trump’s Victory, Republicans Trust the Election System Again” NY Times.
Nope, “it was printed so it’s false.” I mean — I – don’t know anyone who trusts the election system yet. What they said was, there’s a slight uptick, it’s the highest since – get this – 2020. Uh, yeah, probably. If you mean 2% higher than the election 70% of the country thought had problems (including Democrats) then yes I guess? But why since “2020”? Why not since November 2024? Or since 1804? Oh, to write this slanderous article, of course. Why don’t they interview NYC Democrats who still believe 2016 was stolen, which is why Hillary refused to “file paperwork” and contest it? Oh, to write this slanderous article, of course. Slanders R Us.
“CNN Admits Reporter Duped: Assad ‘Victim’ Found In Syria Prison Was Regime Intel Officer
Ya think??? Well it’s CNN and “It was published so it’s false.” You could tell it was false in the first 30 seconds– I just saw the clip of it happening.
Speaking of, anyone have a short list of what’s wrong with the Luigi case? It’s not important enough to research but it also stinks right off.
“Biden Calls For New Gun Laws He Can Pardon His Son For Breaking” – Bbee Actually NOT the Babylon Bee. Although from the Babylon Bee.

“Turkey Masses Troops On Syria Border For Bigger, ‘Imminent’ Invasion
Kurdish officials are urging Trump to prevent a new Turkish invasion…
You mean the Kurds on the Congressional Terror List? Of course we will! That’s why the towers went down and why we started the GWoT: just so we could fund and arm Muslim terrorists worldwide.
“Watch: Syrian ‘Moderate Rebel’ Removes ISIS Patch At Prompting of American Journalist
Reporters helping terrorists with their re-branding, for free. Just like Edward R. Murrow would have wanted.
Ruthless terrorist dictators for life. Syrians are much better off now. Don’t you know doctors are the 3rd leading cause of death? Syria cannot be safe until Assad is replaced with a Captagon-cooking meth head. Israel is making Syria safe for Syrians by leveling every livable building for 500 miles. Including blowing up all chemical weapons plants with rockets I hear. Very safe, OSHA approved. Rockets with rainbow flags on the CONTAIN and neutralize chemical weapons doncha know? Invisible force-field proof.
“CNN’s Abby Phillip gets a brutal reality check”
If you mean by that, did NOT get a brutal reality check, or any check at all, then yes. We wrote it so it’s false. Two people “said”. News at 11. Sure, that’s very moderate and average, I’d point out that MMR has only two causes now: the vaccine is CAUSING Measles, how I don’t know, and illegal immigrants can cross with no vaccine which is the other cause. Just 3 years ago Harvard students all HAD the vaccine, and immediately got measles. So da fuq? If you sold me this magic feather that kept dragons away and dragons were following me everywhere even though dragons are very rare, I’d want my money back. Not Harvard. …School of Medicine. Shut up and take my money, I want infinity vaccines. That I got the disease only proves that they work, you superstitious hick.
““It’s a carnage that we haven’t seen since the Second World War,” he continued. “It’s got to be stopped.”
I ran this last year: the deaths in Donbas alone are higher than the deaths per week of ALL EUROPE in parts of WWII. …And it hadn’t escalated yet like it has now. Like, it’s doubled, +1,000/wk
Not worry! Ukraine says they only lost 30,000 people. That’s a person a day, less than car accidents. It’s a very, very safe war. And that’s why they’re moving the draft age to 65 and 15, because no one died! Anyway, you take it for granted, but this IS more deadly than WWII, and continuously. This is WITH Russia limiting and slowing the conflict on purpose.
Soooo… You want a Civil War here? We can kill 30,000 people an HOUR. Your entire city, everyone you’ve ever met, gone by noon.
““[Türkiye] wanted [Syria] for thousands of years, and he got it… Türkiye did an unfriendly takeover without a lot of lives being lost..”
Hmmmm… So being positive here, suppose TURKEY takes it all shortly, hook line and sinker. Then TURKEY borders Israel, in a STABLE government and economy. So then TURKEY and Israel can face off. …against Europe’s largest army, 20x larger than the IDF?
If only anyone can survive through this window, if I were Syrian, I might like that.
“President-elect Donald Trump blasted federal “work from home” policies Monday, calling them “ridiculous” and stirring up pushback from federal employee unions.”
Possibly the problem is, no one can tell if they’re working or not, since even in the office they never did anything anyway? In corporate, we know you’re not working bc calls aren’t taken or widgets aren’t being shipped. How do you measure Government? They didn’t prevent enough commerce this week? You have to destroy at least twice as many businesses to keep your job.
“• Trump Sues Des Moines Register, Pollster For Brazen Election Interference (ZH)
He has a lot of smart lawyers but I’m having trouble figuring how you can prove this, or that it has adequate “Harm”. I suppose even if lost, the cost will push many papers back in line. As it should, that’s why we have “Libel” and why the bar for filing it is somewhat high. Because just being wrong isn’t enough. They’re free to be mistaken. But not to wage false, harmful vendettas.
“• House GOP Accuses Liz Cheney Of Tampering With J6 Witness (JTN)
I would say we know for a fact she did, but let’s say I think I can present a winning case with public documentation right now. Put that case in Wyoming, which hates her most.
“• The Danger of White Knight Pardons (Turley)
In concept, the “Pardon” is not supposed to undermine and replace the entire Justice system. And make it capricious and Kingly. I’m not going to pass a law on that, however, just choose candidates and parties that believe in…Law, Justice, Constitution, anything. Same with Congress. That’s YOUR job: vote them out. Arrest them out as 2/3rds have committed grievous felonies. Oh “We Can’t”? Boy we sure could with Trump! Easy-peasy. And at State, Federal, levels.
“work with FCC Commissioner Brenden Carr and immediately put an end to pharmaceutical companies advertising”
That’s a really good idea. No other country allows this, and we never did either, so we have a good standard. I mean stack up 50 of these simple little wins, there’s plenty to get bogged down in later.
“• Will Putin Fight or Surrender? (Paul Craig Roberts)
Um, fight? Since he has all Donbas, the useful part of Ukraine, has collapsed the Kiev army, all NATO is hollow and wrecked, and many European nations are collapsing? What’s he not doing?
Speaking of: Faaaaar too complicated, but bond rates worldwide are in trouble. Including China. Problem is, with no free markets anywhere, there is nothing but interventions, and if they “break” there will just be…more interventions. But I try to keep an eye on this since it’s a fact and real signal for trouble. It’s signaling, but how does that become actionable anymore? And if you think bonds are bad, go where? Currencies of the very same nations? Bitcoin? If there’s a panic, BTC, Gold, will be SOLD, not bought, to get your debt and position into the clear. So US$ then, since that’s the clearing and flight to safety. No, because inflation is back and drops savings at 12%.
This is the problem with “Bear Markets” like say the most mild: the US from 1968-1980. Buy stocks? Nope. Buy Commodity stocks? Nope. Buy commodities? Er…yes, but no, they have 50% drawdowns. Buy US bonds? Nope. “Certificates of Confiscation”. Buy cash? Nope. Buy gold? Sure. …Until it drops 80% the minute the cycle turns again. So sit it out. How? You just work a job and own a house and all your overhead costs just 20x’ed.
See the problem? Losing the least bad wins. Dat no too good.
Let’s re-phrase the problem: There are TOO MANY PROMISES. And they need to DEFAULT on those promises. Obviously they’re rich insiders and you’re a poor outsider, so they are going to try to have THEIR promises kept and YOUR promises failed, by any of a thousand means they can think of, especially the illegal ones. But the point is, 80-90% of all promises must be defaulted. That’s the Dow 1968-1980, stayed at 1,000 but FELL 90% in inflation-adjusted terms.
Back to PCR:
“The Russian population is hurting not so much from the West’s sanctions as from Putin’s central bank director’s 21 percent interest rates. Sooner or later the population is going to blame the war for the economic deprivation, and support for a war without end will decline. The same central bank director left Russia’s central bank reserves where they could be stolen by Washington. I suspect the central bank director’s warnings that Russia cannot afford war is the reason the Russian military remains too small for effective deployment, thus forcing Russian reliance on nuclear weapons.”WTF, is he just making all of this up? ALL of it? 21% is because the economy is working TOO FAST, consumer goods are fully available, and 21% is actually not that high as most people alive have seen them higher. That’s tolerable to them. I’m sure they don’t like it, but they know why and it doesn’t put a crimp in them right now. Therefore, no “Economic deprivation”. The war HAS an end, to them. It doesn’t have an end TO US. Their war ends when NATO stops attacking, they know that’s not under their control. Our war is. Their war is not voluntary. Ours is.
The central bank director already had pulled +90% of assets out of US$ exactly because of this, famously so, and years and years ago. It was talked about with the “Dumping the dollar” crisis I was wrong about. But everybody was wrong with me. (No excuse). Those assets are either necessary for business (NordStream) or held by private corporations. Should the Russian bank or government nationalized the oligarchs so they could tell them what to do with their money? Was that your plan? They also didn’t actually lose that much since THEY STOLE EVERYTHING IN COKE AND MCDONALDS for instance. But we never measure the win of the offsetting Counter confiscation.
The Russian army now has ONE MILLION MEN, larger than every army on earth (I think only China is larger) and is deployed for 3 years, winning handily. They quite obviously have not even begun to deploy but continue training and integrating right now. With no problems, equipment, costs, unrest, etc. Lastly, Russia JUST demonstrated openly and famously, NO reliance on nuclear weapons with Oreshnik, you might have noticed. That changed the state and planning of war first time in 80 years. Since that’s almost as big as gunpowder or the atom bomb, maybe notice it?
So what’s that stack? Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, Wrong, and, Wrong.
In just ONE paragraph, no wonder he used to write and edit for the Wall Street Journal.“EU countries should avoid making hasty decisions about sending a peacekeeping mission to Ukraine, Finnish President Alexander Stubb has warned.”
Huh. Sounds like they should leave NATO and go neutral.
“SpaceX employees responsible for ensuring compliance have allegedly raised concerns about lax reporting practices within the company since at least 2021.”
Lax compared to who? How’s Boeing, Lockheed, and Raytheon’s CEO reporting in comparison? Did they report their trips to Epstein Island? Did the FBI approve them all and provide escort?
“”There will be consequences for those who pushed foreign interference hoaxes,” he vowed last month, threatening to take action against officials and politicians making baseless accusations. “I’m going to find out who’s making these accusations and nuke them.”
This seems reactionary or extreme, but really it isn’t, it’s standard business. You can’t have people making up deadly slander, then nuking your company over it. Musk could be arrested by shareholders for not pursuing this enough. (Fiduciary duty). For Congressmen, you can’t just slander and libel people all day with no countersuits.
Like Schiff, if you have evidence, present it. I’d arrest them all for apparently being aware of a treasonous felony, and not reporting their specific evidence to the FBI for investigation, right? I mean, they HAVE evidence, right? Or they’d STFU. Or are they making false accusations, another felony?
“rejecting the deal after taking issue with a “diversity and inclusion” provision in selecting a monitor to supervise the company”When you hear “DEI” that only means “We install a far-Left Democrat”. Always. So they just get to install their own Party Loyalty members everywhere now? And we say yes to that for why?

December 18, 2024 at 12:41 pm #177234EoinWParticipantLet’s give PCR some credit. He took a position early on and has stood by it. By not standing up to NATO, Russia is encouraging the warmongers. Some will claim he’s wrong, however Syria has made it clear that the jury is still out. Plus every attack in Russia which is not responded to – which means retaliating against NATO, outside Ukraine – is more evidence PCR may be right.
How the Ukrainian war ends will determine who is right and wrong. Does Putin cut a deal and sell out? None of us know until the time comes. So PCR is perfectly entitled to stick to his theory.
The 5D chess argument to avoid global nuclear war is wearing thin with me. If Russia(and Iran) are acting based on the fear the Western Loons with start a nuclear war then they’ve already lost. Really, if the Americans were going to launch a nuclear first strike then they would have already done it. What’s stopping them? Maybe the same common sense that’s stopped everyone in the past.

Maybe because most are lying pieces of shit and, it is starting to be apparent to them that those outside of their professions are looking at them funny. As well as not following their advice with an, “in your face kinda way”.

I’ve always wanted to be a musician. It’s kind of all I really wanted to do in some ways, even though I have a deep love of gardening and permaculture too. The problem with needing to be liked and not wanting to upset people is that you just are not really yourself. You haven’t gotten really lonely and broken to the point where you just couldn’t give a fuck what people think. Don’t get me wrong – you are interested in others opinions but the buck stops with you.
The feeling of release is just so good. I know it happens with ageing too. But not like this. The contract is broken. I don’t need their approval. I can say honestly that prior to clown world I could never just write a song or a track just for what it wanted to be. I had to run it through the ‘projecta-filter’. Do I sound lame?

His grief soon turns into a fiery determination to expose and destroy the sinister forces profiting from human suffering.

Armed with nothing but his relentless drive and a deep sense of justice, he sets out to dismantle the corrupt empire responsible for so much pain.
