BREAKING NEWS: The Victorian Parliament has passed the Inclusion and Diversity Amendment (Provisions for Marriage) Bill 2024. Every new marriage is now required by law to include 50% females and 50% males. Non-diverse marriage applications will no longer be accepted. The Inclusion and Diversity watchdog has welcomed the decision, emphasising that growing up in a diverse family consisting of a mother and a father is a fundamental human right of all children.

Promises, promises… For a long time I was sure that ‘something has to give’, that society is too decadent and disconnected from reality to sustain itself for another year, but it is evidently true, as Maynard Keynes said, that “the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.”

Since when do Royals advertise their private medical histories in real time? Since never.

If Australia were not colonised, would anyone want to live here, provided they had experienced life in other countries?

There are two contradictory narratives that the government uses, depending on whom they are trying to fool: a) Australia was built by migrants (when they want to weaponise migration); b) Australia was stolen by migrants (when they want to weaponise resentment). Mass immigration amounts to spitting in the faces of Aboriginals; acknowledging the original owners amounts to spitting in the faces of migrants.

One must be capable of ‘intending’ to kill before one may be at all persuaded to kill intentionally, and only this intentional aspect makes someone a willing killer. The ease with which people can be persuaded to kill, and the difficulty in persuading others, may be a relevant (moral status? value?) distinction to the ruling power. One could indeed imagine the individuals drunk on power to dish out the judgement reserved for God: “For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.” Still, just a hypothesis, but something feels intuitively right about it, taking all the psychic chatter into account.

I watched only a random few minutes of the Putin interview, but one comment particularly struck me. I paraphrase: <Musk is a smart guy, so we must reason with him, come to understanding.> This implies that if someone is not smart then reasoning is pointless and we cannot come to understanding, therefore other means would apply. This may of course be just an awkward expression, but every expression has its basis in the mind, and sometimes expresses more than a careful expression was meant to reveal. No slip of the tongue is symbolically meaningless, but this is just a curiosity that I do not count as evidence of anything.

Notes on the Carlson-Putin interview. Lenin has put a self-destruct mechanism in the design of the Soviet Union. Putin doesn’t understand why. Soviet Union was made to collapse from within, to send a message of good will to the rest of the world, make friends, be included, after being betrayed so many times before. Is betrayed again, but they didn’t see it coming so they lost the union for nothing. Ukraine was on path to have a pro western government anyway, but CIA started the coup anyway, causing many deaths and suffering. Putin does not understand why. Putin does not understand why the West is always betraying Russia, but continues to agree to deals that get betrayed again. Putin confirms with the CIA that they are doing it, but does not ask why, what do they want. Putin does not understand. NATO imposes sanctions on Russia that really help Russia to grow but harm Europe. Putin doesn’t understand. CIA blows up Nordstream to Germany, Germany allows this and pays more. Putin does not understand why.

It is not 'if you did nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide' but 'if you did nothing wrong, you have no reason to lie'. So why do politicians and the corporate media lie so much?

Putin made a pun during the interview that everyone seems to have misinterpreted. In accusing Carlson of blowing up Nordstream, and then saying “not you personally, but the CIA” he meant ‘the CIA did it and You Are a CIA operative.’ He didn’t say ‘you, the Americans did it’ but ‘you, the CIA did it’.

BREAKING NEWS: The People’s Republic of China has unveiled a new national flag design, to replace the original, “politically outdated” flag.

The brain is not where thought arises but where it physically appears (and moves the body)

When fascist states all over the world are ‘concerned’ about human rights abuses committed by an ally fascist state, you know it is really really bad.

Population level cybernetics always begins with small, innocuous requests, minimal sacrifices. ‘Just put a scarf over your face when you are passing others. Even a tissue will help.’ Once you agree to the first request, they already got you. Beyond that point it is just a balancing game of not asking for too much in one step. “A home-made mask will be just fine. You can choose your own fabric. “A surgical mask is necessary”. “You must also take this safe injection”. “One more time”. “And again, just like we practiced before”. “Remember how we did it the last time? You know the drill, it doesn’t hurt, so one more time”. “You are used to it now so there is no excuse not to wear the respirator and take the recommended injections”. “Now see that person over there? She is unvaccinated, she did it all to you. Make sure you let her know how you feel about that.” “Look, it is her again, mocking us all by not wearing a mask, unvaccinated. Here is a knife in case she gets too close to you. You have the right to defend yourself.”

The hypothetical objective of controlling social consciousness in the cybernetic, deterministic sense is a contradiction in terms. Consciousness is essentially non-deterministic, uncontrollable, and if it were controlled it would cease to be consciousness, or perhaps it never was.

The “root cause of vaccine hesitancy” is plain rationality. It is inherently irrational to trust the advise of people without being able to verify whether their advise is in your best interest. It is especially irrational to trust people in power, because of the asymmetry of interests and risks, and even more so when they have a track record of being consistently unethical, deceitful and murderous. The answer to power, insofar as it demands compliance against reason, must always be NO.

The most direct mode of cybernetics is to convince the target demographic to submit to “their” feelings. Submission to feelings is still submission to the authority of something other than the present, conscious You, and that something can then be systematically conditioned and controlled. Feelings and intuitions are mixed and conflated with the voice of the ruling power echoing in your mind; they are not your voice.

Here’s an idea. ALL opposition is controlled opposition. The only genuine players are those who are willing to deliberate in good faith, present reasons, and let reason prevail. OPPOSITION, in the political sense, is already an ideological commitment, already a dogma, a polarity without grounding, and without any hope of rational resolution. People on all sides of every debate have personal interests, some of which are universal, and those interests must be appealed to. This is the only way to reliably resolve conflicts.

Nothing will satisfy a nativist supremacist except Everything, slaves included, because nativism is not about moral liability, certainly not about equality, but about racial supremacy, period. “An ideal future would include a native title compensation scheme that incorporates compound interest” she says. I suspect this overt injustice is systemically incentivised not to help this “proud Kuku Yalanji, Waanyi, Wangan & Jagalingou, Wiri and Mununjali woman”, but to ultimately judge them collectively by their own measure. Give them plenty of rope, load the spring of resentment, then unleash the recoil; in short, white supremacism wearing a blackface. https://www.lawyersalliance.com.au/opinion/native-title-is-a-cultural-issue-not-just-a-legal-one

BREAKING NEWS: The virtual State of Ukraine announces the next stage of military conscription, requiring all Australian males aged 18-25 to report for duty. Prime Minister Albanese has welcomed the decision, emphasising the incentives attached to the current wave of conscription, which include the minimum compensation of honorary Ukrainian citizenship, a fully furnished apartment in Kiev and a suitably aged Ukrainian widow already maintaining the awarded real estate.
