True but Forbidden 20: Remember, “Rome was not burned in a day.”


Nothing spells empowerment quite like being a wage slave to global capital. Go to college, gain twenty pounds, take a dozen or two (or more) guys to bed, maybe get a masters, learn to loathe your family—especially your father—and the culture you grew up in, move to the city with your six figures in debt to start work in HR for GloboHomo, Inc., struggle to pay a two thousand dollar a month rent for a glorified broom closet, gain ten to twenty more pounds, take another dozen or two (or more) men to bed, experiment with a few chicks, wake up and you’re thirty-three, swiping through Tinder for the man of your dreams, no kids, a thousand miles from your immediate family, making $40,000 a year. You’ll have to get some new clothes soon, the waistband is getting a little tight on your jeans (again). Some hair-dye, too, because you’ve noticed a few grays around the temples. You haven’t been able to pay off your student loan debt yet because the interest keeps accumulating. You were passed up for a promotion at work in favor of a mulatto tranny who’s been there a quarter of the time you have.

In the crisis that befell us, metrosexual males who recently obsessed over their own appearances couldn’t even protect themselves, much less any stray women, orphaned children, or the lost elderly of their extended clans. These pitiful Peter Pans perished outright, or they were captured and enslaved, abused without mercy, and finally consumed for food. Mohicans every last one, their tribes were not even mourned in extinction, because they were already launched upon a voluntary-human-extinction project even before the electronic coup de grace was applied.

Democrats: Now That We’re Finished With the Mueller Probe, We Can Finally Tackle the Flat Earth Issue   “Outside of a little Russian dressing on a salad and Trump’s unkempt hair looking like a blond ushanka, I guess we always knew the evidence for a Russian connection was kinda thin. But you know what’s NOT thin? The evidence for the Earth being flat! Look out your window. Does the horizon curve down at the edges? Nope! Straight line! Let’s see you redact THAT, Bob Barr!”

In the meantime, there is the nation’s business which has been hopelessly burdened by an hallucinatory overlay of Wokester idiocy emanating from the campuses, so that even in the absence of the Mueller distraction every organized endeavor in this land from-sea-to-shining-sea is paralyzed by race-and-gender hustles. Next up: a national debate over reparations for slavery in the never-ending quest to monetize moral posturing. Won’t that be a mighty string of knots to untangle? Who qualifies, exactly? What about the indigenous people whose lands were overrun? And what about the Japanese interned in 1941? And what about women prevented from earning salaries all those lost decades of housewifery? And what about the brown people from many lands whose families did not come here until slavery was a long time gone? Do Silicon Valley engineers from India, and thoracic surgeons from the Philippines have to pay up for the sins of Whitey?

The Trump Doctrine Internationalism, as I see it, is a philosophical/political doctrine that demands the ceding of large amounts of national sovereignty to foreigners. I believe we can minimize the amount of sovereignty we cede even in the context of economic globalization. I also believe our democracy depends on doing so.

On the aftermath of The Meuller Report:

The Prosecution Of Julian Assange Is Infinitely Bigger Than Assange The entire world is watching what is being done to Assange currently. No matter how propagandized you are, no matter how much you hate the man personally, you’re watching that happen and learning a lesson from it. And that lesson is, never do anything remotely like what that guy did, or you’ll meet the same fate. This is the real goal of Assange’s persecution, and it doesn’t impact merely one Australian publisher in a UK jail cell, nor even merely the investigative journalists around the world who are interested in practicing the lost art of holding power to account using journalism, but everyone in the world who consumes news media.

It’s Only April and We Already Have the Best Selfie of the Year

U.S. ROUTE 395 is a geologic master class disguised as a road. It runs north from the arid outskirts of Los Angeles, carrying travelers up to Reno along the eastern flank of the Sierra Nevada. On the way, they pass the black cinder cones of Coso Volcanic Field and the eroded scars of a mighty 19th-century earthquake near Lone Pine. In winter, drivers might see steam rising from Hot Creek, where water boils up from an active supervolcano deep underground. About an hour from the Nevada border, Mono Lake appears, with its bulbous and surreal mineral formations known as tufa towers. Even for someone with no particular interest in rocks, these are captivating, otherworldly sights.

At its core, progressivism is a philosophy of death. Despite all of its high-minded rhetoric about human rights, equality, fairness, grrl power, and liberation from oppression (all of which, by the way, it pretty much stole from the Christian church), progressivism is really nothing more than a demonic suicidal death cult. That’s all it ever is, and ever can be. And when there’s nothing else left to murder, it will turn on itself.

The Trump Doctrine For all its bluntness and simplicity, America First is, at its root, just a restatement of this truth. Countries putting their own interests first is the way of the world, an inexpugnable part of human nature. Like other aspects of human nature, it can be sublimated or driven underground for a time –”but only for a time. You may drive out nature with a pitchfork, Horace said, but it keeps on coming back.

To Conquer Chaos, Court It Moscow and Beijing have a firmer and more fundamental grasp on realpolitik: play all sides against each other, keep the locals distracted, and rarely take sides, while waiting to see how the pieces fall before fully asserting one’s own will.

On the seventh day of creation As we walk the streets and see below us those delightful bulbous heads, three times too big for the body, which mark these human mushrooms, we ought always primarily to remember that within every one of these heads there is a new universe, as new as it was on the seventh day of creation. In each of those orbs there is a new system of stars, new grass, new cities, a new sea. –The Defendant (1901)

The Bolshevik Revolution was supposed to end up in a dictatorship of the proletariat, but instead resulted in a largely urban dictatorship of the nomenklatura, a term, derived from the Latin nomenclatura, meaning a list of names. The suggestion was that it was hereditary, rather than meritorious. Trotsky referred to it as a caste, rather than a class, as it looked more like the old Tsarist order, rather than something new. The managerial state described by James Burnham, has evolved into a similar sort of ruling caste.

Modern-Day MLK Jr. Has Dream That One Day Everybody Will Be Judged By The Color Of Their Skin “One day, everyone in this nation will simply look at a white person and know immediately they’re part of the problem. They can also look at a minority and realize that person is righteous because they are oppressed by systems of whiteness.”

Unexpectedly, a Lesbian Vegan Restaurant Which Charged a “Man Tax” of 18% to Compensate for the Pay Gap That Doesn’t Exist Is Shutting Down Today’s special is grievance! Yum!

    “…..pay up for the sins of Whitey?” +++++++++++
    Well, in fairness then, all the improvements to life Whitey has created and bestowed upon everyone, everywhere should be revoked immediately. In terms of wokeness, what could be more pure than living like the exalted Nobel Savage before the devil whiteman came along?

    World religions did not include “Vegan”.

    Q) How do you know someone is “vegan”?
    A) They will tell you with every conversations and interaction they have with you or anyone near you. Will work to make it mandatory.

    From Sam the Cooking Guy:
    Vegans hate the killing of animals but don’t mind if you die from boredom as they tell you about it.

    I f you don’t think our enemies are organized much better than us, explain to me how BoRock and Hitlary both referred to us pagans as “Easter Worshipers” within minutes of each other. There are no coincidences.

  • AesopFan April 25, 2019, 10:23 PM

    “There are no coincidences.”

    There were more people on the meme-train than just Clinton & Obama.
    First time is happenstance.
    Second is coincidence.
    Third time is enemy action.

    Excellent summary of the world we share.
    About that empowerment thing, wage slave and global capital:
    Yeah? Well I have a PhD in Curmudgeonly Skepticism. To get it I had to accumulate abundant scars, pulled muscles, and blisters, and bounced checks. Not to mention the required ass kickings from men who’d been there and done that, by God, and “how about you shut up get the hell back to work. Dumbass”.
    So pardon me if I don’t give a damn about your bullshit. And I giveth not a damn, either, that you are upset about it.
    Though it does pain me to see good, young female lives completely wasted I can no longer accept responsibility for it; a brief review of history reveals great success when women are nurturing mothers and spouses. The rate diminishes for self-sufficient and independent single women, though happiness is still possible it takes a great slice of self-awareness and discipline to make it happen. An inverse relationship exists when childless professional females take to public office, or in private business with even moderate authority. Add children raised in proxy to the mix and disaster is the inevitable result. And not just for the misinformed and misguided chick, but for all in her orbit. Everyone. Disaster.
    So, yeah. Rail against the patriarchy. Do your own thing. Read, re-read and underline, “Our Bodies Our Selves”. Defy tradition. Discard “labels”. Shave your head. Collect your damned cats. Just accept your fate along with your stupidity and be quiet about it.

    Bracken was an excellent read. Thank you!

    I especially liked this: “The younger GPS generation was lost when their screens went dark. Their brains had been wired from early childhood to be led and directed from point to point by computer-generated voices and pixel arrows. By the time the grid went down most people were incapable of learning to navigate by map and compass, and anyway, almost nobody had them.”

    A couple of weeks ago the Farmhand and I were installing the outside part of my personal weather station, the front of which needs to be aimed due south. He’s holding the pws against the fencepost and I’m telling him to shift it this way & that. He asks what’s in my hand. Compass. Never seen one. And this is out in the middle of rural nowhere. (To his credit, he’s an excellent chainsawer.)

    First Bastard Nation in modern history. Some 90% of men incarcerated in prison were raised by fractured family fragments,and often did’nt know their own fathers.We shrugged these facts off as insignificant byproducts of modernity,and partied on.

    Please RTWT.
    Party’s been over for quite some time now,as most of us who come here are well aware.
    Thx for the Bracken link,he’s a rock in the storm.

    So,a lesbian vegan restaurant charges 18% “man tax” for the privilege of eating kaleburgers?
    And they wonder why they went broke?

  • ghostsniper April 27, 2019, 9:16 AM

    “So,a lesbian vegan restaurant charges 18% “man tax” for the privilege of eating kaleburgers?”
    =========
    Can a man go in that joint and claim to “identify” as a woman and get around that 18% mark up?
    Would he need to provide some sort of proof for his assertion?

    Also, if a woman goes in there, that identifies as a man, will she be charged that 18%?
