THIS AND THAT

I’m getting a kick out of the media turnaround on Ivermectin. The wild and frequent claims of it being poison and just “horse medicine” and “bad for humans” have died out and now even stage comedians are making jokes about the campaigns against it. The fact is, it’s a miracle drug that won the Nobel Peace Prize and is one of the safest and most versatile drugs ever discovered.

The WEF is promoting “Degrowth” now, which is the same stuff they’ve always been saying, they just coined a new word for it. Yes, it means less people, less resource mining and usage and so on. Those on the side of “More people, more growth” vilify the WEF constantly as being Communist dictators wanting to rule the world, and they may be. Problem is, they’re also right. There’s too damn many people, one look at all the migrants and the tent cities tells you that. Besides, when did the Pro-Growthers ever give a shit about our planet?

Just ordered the book “Behold a Pale Horse”, by William Cooper. Published in 1991. The Left, every one of our Federal agencies and our entire MSM calls him a terrorist and extremist, because he was predicting in fine detail over 30 years ago what is actually happening in America and the world right now. All that sounds to me like something well worth reading. Oh, did I mention that the FBI stormed his home and shot him dead, but not before he sent his family out of the country. They wanted to kill his wife too. Sounds like fascinating reading, you should buy the book.

It’s good that there’s lots of old movies, because all the new ones are full of Woke socialist propaganda encouraging us all to believe in global warming and climate change and carbon credits and all the insane gender bullshit. Good for me anyway because old flicks are my primary evening entertainment on Hulu. I seldom watch news other than Al Jazeera, they usually just report facts except when they’re attacking the Jews. It’s better to pick from a list of news and stories and select what to read, instead of watching some paid flack run his or her lying mouth.

THE FUTURE OF RELIGION

Religions have never been popular with dictatorships except for religious dictatorships. At one time in the world, the Popes of the Catholic Church were the dictators and ruled with iron fists. The Islamists have repeatedly tried to take over and dominate but keep failing mostly because their religion is so backward and unbending while the Popes keep allowing for changes, to stay popular and in power. The only revolt against them was the rise of Protestantism and while the Islamists have made war against the Christian nations, they’ve suffered mostly defeats. Even Muslims hate Muslims and love to kill each other and it’s hard to stay a winner that way.

Our rising Global Central Government isn’t going to have any use for religions either because they’re always at odds and fighting with each other, and always give rise to dissidence against the government. Religions are trouble-makers.

Islam is controlled and led by only a very few actual leaders that are comparable to Popes, and can either be bought off or replaced by compliant men who will be happy to turn the worship of Allah into the worship of Central Government. The current Pope is called a Communist, which I suspect is a misnomer and that he’s actually a Globalist. He’s actually prophesied to be the last Pope and that may just come true, causing the collapse of the Catholic Church.

Religion itself could be easily enough perverted into Government worship with enough paid “reverends”. The Chinese have successfully perverted Catholicism there into a form of government worship. Look what George Soros has done to our legal system and crime rate by just financing the successful elections of Communist district attorneys. It’s not hard. It just takes patience and persistence. Religions have always been malleable because they’re all based on nothing but belief in old stories. Stories change.

Once we have a Central Government, that will be the end of religions. New ones will always crop up but they’ll be quickly squashed and harshly punished. This, at least, will be no loss to humanity.

THE FUTURE OF MONEY

Was thinking about CBDC and FedNow while I slept last night and looking at the logical progression of a Global currency payment system. Woke up still thinking about it.

Banks grant credit to generate interest income, by giving loans. Credit cards are a form of loan and all payments made are money transfers from bank to bank.

By connecting all banks to the IMF platform, all forms of currency become a common currency electronically, by using a globally accepted exchange rate for each currency. So many Greek Drachmas are worth X number of Euros, and each is worth X number of US Dollars, and so on. Once this is established, a common monetary unit for all will follow rapidly. FedNow will enable the instant transfers on the international IMF platform, backed by the US CBDC digital currency, and since the Dollar is the primary international currency, the changeover to digital currency should be quick, possibly by this time in July, 2024.

Banks are often nationalized. Sometimes for going bankrupt, sometimes because the government wants to take the money away from the bank. So I was wondering what would stop governments from taking over the banks once all the money was digital and they controlled it. Since most banks are financed with loans from their governments, it shouldn’t be too difficult.

The Chinese have been taking over poor nation’s most important infrastructure by making them loans they can’t repay and then taking possession. Within China they’ve forced their own people onto a Social Credit system that controls their income and can take it away. This is the system they want to impose on the world.

China is a member of the IMF along with all but 2 other nations. The world’s nations will all share in this emerging system where all currency is digital credits and access to one’s individual account is controlled by one central government, and all transactions are monitored within seconds and scrutinized for social merit. Where all your behavior is recorded by the government through your cellphone and the surveillance around you.

If everyone is using the instant payment system and credit is abolished along with banks, then all the money/credits you have are all that you have to spend. The extension of this is that the central government owns all the housing, means of transportation and so on. Remember what they said, that you will own nothing and be happy.

The conclusion is that money will disappear and be replaced with digital credits. Private property will be abolished, the Central Government will own everything.

CBDC UPDATE – FEDNOW

Just two posts back I told you about CBDC, Central Bank Digital Currency, the plan of the U.S. Federal Government to force everyone to use eDollars, government issued crypto dollars, instead of the continually less valuable paper fiat money that we can at least hold in our hands even though it’s not backed up by anything whatever. With crypto dollars we not only won’t even have that anymore, we will have utterly lost control of our lives and be owned like slaves by our government.

In a major step toward this goal, our government has announced the completion of FedNow, an electronic, online instant payment system that is the first of it’s kind. It allows anyone to transfer money to anyone else, instantly. This is ALREADY going global, as the IMF has ensured that all banks worldwide are on an IMF-created platform that joins them all together.

If you’ve transferred cash via the Internet from one bank to another, or from your bank to a person or business, you know that it can often take several days for the transaction to complete. With FedNow, it happens in a few seconds.

This spells the death of PayPal and other fund transfer apps because they all charge a fee and take time to complete. While I have no word on this right now, I’m betting that if there is a FedNow fee, that it will be less than 1%. PayPal charges a 3.49% processing plus 49 cents on every transaction, which in my opinion is hugely excessive and I’m not alone in that. PayPal is doomed, along with Square, Sumup, Shopify and the others that all charge nearly 3% of the transaction amount.

FedNow will become the only online payment system if it charges no or a very low transaction fee, especially since it completes transactions in seconds. When this happens, the use of physical cash money, already hugely reduced from when there was no Internet, will become a rare event. Everyone will use Digital Currency, crypto money. Paper money will disappear and eventually the government will simply stop printing it. By then the government will have total control over our lives and can dictate who gets to buy food and who can’t. If you speak out against government, government can make your crypto money account show Zero, you will be unable to buy food, travel, do anything except starve to death. Your very existence can be erased from all records.

Don’t say you were never warned.

Add a footnote here… FedNow is undoubtedly patented. Looking ahead, I see all competitors, no matter how innovative and different, being either shut down as infringing or simply bought out by the government. There can be only one system like this and it will be owned by the Fed. One other thought is that the IMF will probably incorporate FedNow into their international CBDC platform, thus uniting all currencies into one.

WHAT THE ????

Just read two news stories about Saudi Arabia. One says that they’re cutting their oil production for a third time. The other says that they’re into a bunch of massive very futuristic building projects, a continuous city called The Line, an enormous city in one huge cubical structure, a floating city on the ocean, a ski resort in the middle of the desert….

How do you create these mega-$billion$ projects by selling less oil when that’s the only source of income? Why would you build new housing for people who aren’t there when the population is shrinking? Where is all the water coming from for these cities in a desert nation that has almost none?

We’re told that the “Oil supply is on the brink of collapse” and the gasoline price at the pump will soar, when the amount of production cuts is less than one percent of total global production.

This is why it’s nearly impossible to get a clear picture of the world’s economy. How is that done when everything contradicts everything else? Elon Musk recently expressed this same confusion, concluding that we “live in turbulent times”. I believe the reason for this is that there’s a lot of separate power bases that are now in competition with each other for future dominance instead of working together for mutual profit as they formerly did. Power has steadily become more concentrated into less groups and less people, who now own vast fortunes and control most of the industry.

Most of them agree on the principle of a global government, but not on the details of it or who should be in charge and the rest of us are caught in the middle of this shoving match. At least, that’s how I see it.

CBDC

Don’t you love all these alphabetical acronyms? Every fucking one of them is BAD NEWS. This one stands for Central Bank Digital Currency. The following is taken directly off the Federal Reserve website: “While the Federal Reserve has made no decisions on whether to pursue or implement a central bank digital currency, or CBDC, we have been exploring the potential benefits and risks of CBDCs from a variety of angles, including through technological research and experimentation. Our key focus is on whether and how a CBDC could improve on an already safe and efficient U.S. domestic payments system”.

This is government New Speak for “We are planning on replacing physical money with digital money”.

When the dollar is replaced with a digital currency, and it will be, it will be completely controlled by the government. Then we will be given Social Credit Scores exactly the same as is being done in China right now, and our ability to purchase anything, food, fuel, medicine, can be blocked by the government.

Replacing the Dollar with a government controlled digital currency will enslave us. Grow as much of your own food as you can, encourage and patronize local farmers markets, join bartering groups or start one up, store and save vital hard goods like tools, nuts, bolts and nails, dig a well, generate your own electricity. Be as self-sufficient as you possibly can.

GOOD MORNING, EARTH

In the movie, Robin Williams, playing a military radio disc jockey in Vietnam, always started his show with “GOOD MORNING, VIETNAM”. He was responding to the insanity of the war going on there.

Poor Robin committed suicide, in real life, maybe he just couldn’t deal with all the insane shit going on. The plain truth is that most people are surviving it by shutting it out, ignoring it, pretending it just doesn’t exist.

Insane shit like men dressing up like women and competing in women’s sports, AND BEING ALLOWED TO. That’s insane. Men are taking away all the trophies, all the medals, ribbons and prize money from women athletes. Who the fuck wants to even watch that? Children, little children, 5 years old even, are being taught, ALL OVER, this is not just isolated incidents, this is happening EVERYWHERE, IN SCHOOLS, that they can be girls if they’re boys and boys if they’re girls, that gender is fluid, like changing a shirt, and GOVERNMENTS ARE ENFORCING THIS INSANE BULLSHIT WITH LAWS.

Cocaine and marijuana have recently been discovered in the White House, as thousands of military-age Chinese men are pouring in across our southern border, while our National Debt is soaring over $2 Trillion a year now and inflation is going nuts and our oil production has been deliberately cut to half, while Saudi Arabia and Russia are reducing production and raising prices, as the international shipping industry gets backlogged in ports, the trucking industry can’t find drivers, major food producing plants keep burning down, the high cost of animal feed along with extended drought that’s killed crops has forced the slaughter of most cattle herds, while “meat” grown from cancer cells has been approved for human consumption. Bon appetit.

The WEF (World Economic Forum) openly tells us all that they want to get rid of almost all of us, kill us off, they have the power and means to do it, and they’re doing it. China also wants to kill most of us off, except for Chinese, so lots of nation’s leaders jump at the opportunity to make money deals with them that end up totally fucking over their nations. Is this sane? They created a new disease and sent infected people all over the world to spread it as quickly as possible, our government immediately approved a “vaccine” that was untested and highly toxic, that was forced upon us. It killed millions and is still killing millions while the drug companies made $billion$ and the world was locked down in quarantine for over a year, and small businesses all over the Earth collapsed, failed, went bankrupt and unemployment soared upward, homeless camps exploded everywhere along with crime, and still are, while the migrations of people from everywhere to everywhere continue unabated and no one even suggests that China be punished for inflicting this horror and destruction on the world.

If you think all this shit along with all the rioting, looting and burning is happening by accident, you must be pretty fucking stupid. When all the world’s leaders are promoting this crap instead of doing their best to stop it, you’d do well to look to your own welfare. You’ll get no help from them.

RHINESTONE COWBOY

Roy Rogers wasn’t his real name, that name was given to him by someone in a Hollywood studio. It doesn’t matter, that’s just for historical clarity. What matters is who he really was.

He started out by moving to California from the Midwest in the 1940s and put a band together called the Sons of the Pioneers. He sang and played guitar and the band became very popular, making a number of hit records. It wasn’t long before Hollywood gave him a tryout in a western movie and he was again a hit. He soon was a famous “cowboy” movie star and was cranking out the Oaters, which is what we called cowboy movies, because the horses were fed oats with their hay.

These movies were popular at theater matinees, movies that started at noon on Saturdays that were attended entirely by kids. Boys, mostly, who all saw Roy Rogers as their idol.

At the time, most of his movies were being made at ranches out in the Mohave Desert, and I lived in Palmdale at the time, right in the heart of that desert. One day the school got us kids all together and took us out to a ranch where Roy Rogers and his wife, Dale Evans, were making a movie, and we were brought up outside of the outdoor set, told to be quiet and watch.

We were quiet, we understood this was serious business, and we were all in awe because there right in front of us was our hero, Roy Rogers himself.

Well, Roy looked at us, turned to someone else there, and said loudly and clearly, “Get those kids out of here”. I saw the way his wife looked at us, too, very coldly. We were thus promptly herded out of the area and over to the buses and it wasn’t long before we were on our way back to the school and never got to watch him make his movie.

What a huge letdown for us all, and a lesson I never forgot, that what people seem to be on the movie screen is not what they’re really like. That was the end of my childhood hero worship of Roy Rogers and the last time I went to a movie matinee featuring one of his. We kids are what made him rich. Adults didn’t go see his movies, they were made for boys, not grown ups. It was our allowance money that paid his bills.

Roy Rogers was an asshole.

NATO, UKRAINE, RUSSIA, OPILL

No more pussyfooting around, NATO has “absorbed” Ukraine into the organization officially, sort of, giving assurances that Ukraine will be backed until Russia is defeated.

Totally defeated. The real reason behind the Russia-Ukraine conflict is to defeat Russia, as I’ve been saying from the start. Putin was conned into this attack the same way Saddam Hussein was conned into attacking Kuwait. He was led to believe that it would be an easy victory. So was Saddam, when the real plan was to take over the oil.

The real plan for Russia is to dismantle their empire and reduce them to serf status. The only real impediment is their large stock of nukes but I assume there’s a plan in place there as well. Meanwhile, NATO’s military has just suddenly swollen from 40,000 ready combatants to 300,000 with a fresh call-up. They’re getting ready to finish this.

Opill. This is related news because it’s part of the same plan to unify the planet and reduce the population. Opill is a brand new, OVER THE COUNTER, NON-PRESCRIPTION Birth Control Pill and the very first ever that is Non-Prescription. It had to happen. With so many people being reduced to poverty, they can’t afford to see a doctor to get a prescription for birth control pills that they can’t afford to pay for, so they just keep having more babies. What do you want to bet that the Opill is dirt-cheap to free?
