So much to unpack here. "The idea that the US can somehow divide and conquer them (China and Russia) separately is daft." The neocons have come full circle. Dividing, if not conquering, Russia and China was exactly what the US managed to do for most of the last 70 years. It's the neocons' insane policies that have pushed the two together. Concerning the comments on nuclear strikes, I think Doctorow is not thinking this through clearly and his logic is tangled. He says that "The West has shot its wad, and has nothing left but nukes." The implication here seems to be that the West won't use nukes if that is their only card left to play. I don't believe that. I believe that the maniacs in charge in DC are fully capable of going nuclear if everything else fails. He also says that "Such escalations would not cause Russia to go nuclear; they would, however, very likely lead Russia to retaliate with conventional warhead hypersonic missile attacks on targets in Europe west of Russia—US and vassal state bases." Well, Russia may not go nuclear at that point, but their hitting Western targets will almost certainly push us into nuclear war. I still say that Russia needs to wrap this up soon or things are going to turn even uglier.
The first part is my phrasing of Doctorow, not his exact words--but accurate. The second part about the West not escalating to nukes is my interpretation.
America HAS woken up. We no longer pay attention to anything our government does. And yes, the sites they condemn are the ones we go to for news. But, but, but they are in power and make the laws. Who cares? There are workarounds, or we simply won't comply. Force us to send our kids to your lousy schools! Lock us all up! They are biting more than they can chew, and are in danger of not only having Putin laugh at them, but the majority of Americans as well. A propos, I now regret having missed the State of the Union, which I hear was hilarious.
I get it that the Deep State is evil for continuing to push the jabs on kids, but hey, any parent who injects their kids with the clot shot today is a moron beyond salvation.
I'm afraid Americans, with the exception of a small minority, are soundly asleep, a slumber so deep that they will never wake from it even when they find themselves standing in soup kitchen lines. And should the suffering that is surely coming their way actually wake them up, a major war will swiftly be conjured up to galvanize them in common cause and direct their wrath away from the true cause of their suffering towards an external existential threat. It's very disheartening to watch.
Galvanize? I once had a garbage pail that was galvanized. If anything, we have been degalvanized these past few years. And just like during the Great Depression of the 1930s, real Americans coped. Some made fortunes. Others starved. If you trust your government I guess you deserve to.
Americans and Western people in general are very different from folks in the GD. I live next to France and listen daily to the French lefties mewling and puking because their government wants them to work till 64 instead of 62 to pay for the overly generous cradle to grave welfare system that they see as their birthright. We are pathetic.
In 78 years, they never had a 15 year old who died from a heart attack. In December 2022, they had 1 a week for three weeks straight. Nobody is talking about it publicly.
This is the schizophrenia that blows my mind: on the one hand, this terrible reality screaming in our faces; on the other, the normies just carrying on as if everything is fine.
Clearly, not that there was really any question, this latest revelation that the government was involved in manipulating what news and information is read as well as working to eliminate funding for opposing views can only be understood as open warfare against its own citizens. The fact that the State Department is working hand in glove with a foreign organization to further it’s nefarious aims is all the more infuriating!
It also appears equally evident, as my sarcastic friend from Texas pointed out so eloquently, we are effectively hamstrung to change things because of the corruptly manipulative manner in which both parties have structured politics in this country.
Truly, what kind of options remain available for those of us in flyover land?
I find it amusing, in a gallows humor kinda way, that those of us on this blog see perfectly clearly that Putin has absolutely no reason whatsoever to agree to any kind of ceasefire because time is on his side and yet this fact has apparently eluded all perception by the geniuses who are in charge of this ever burgeoning calamity.
One more question, can anyone explain to me exactly how does one “woke” an enemy to death? Just curious:-)
All governments at all times have tried to indoctrinate and censor their subjects. The only difference today is the methods. And the problem is that most people don't need much indoctrinating to believe stupid things. However, the other side of the coin is always true. There will always be a minority of 10-20% of people who refuse to join the ranks of the insane.
It’s as if the government school system is trying to intentionally cut its own throat, parents aren’t stupid. They known (now) that they were lied to about the jab. If anything opens up the homeschool or private school market this is it.
Two years ago my daughter in law worried this would come about. I told her, I got you, I always thought my “second act career” would be teacher. Teaching my grandsons about life will be awesome.
Maybe school vac mandates will finally lead to the end of federally subsidized indoctrination. But again, it's a "recommendation" ha! Side note worth repeating, once added to the childhood schedule, the eua can be removed with no fear of repercussion - I believe either Dr Malone or Dr Kennedy said that.
The Woke crap hasn't hit us in Europe so badly as in the US and UK, but it's coming. Here in Switzerland, the kids in state schools now have their obligatory rainbow flag on their homework diaries. However, homeschooling is growing here too. We home educated our 4 kids and they all did well - and they recognise the woke stuff for what it is.
Yes indeed, Americans need to wake up, if for no other reason than so we can observe the coming collapse in real time.
In Denninger's latest post he states this:
"Today, I ask, what option do you have if neither party, both of which have complete control over who they seat in committees and can torpedo a run for office under either of their banners through policy changes, primary support which can include ridiculous sums from outside of the district or even the state in question and similar, will actually stand up particularly when some group other than their alleged "constituents" is running around with a wheelbarrow full of money effectively bribing (or threatening to blackball) all of them, whether its technically a bribe or not?"
"There is nothing left in that instance available to you through the political process, is there?"
"Something to think about."
I will add this, may God help us to help ourselves avoid total devastation.
Agreed. I almost hope that Trump gets the nomination for 2024 and gets hammered again, while DeSantis stays in Florida and quietly strengthens the place as the first of the breakaway states.
Hmm. That Global Disinformation Index. Think, think, think.
"The last official edition of the Index Librorum Prohibitorum was published in 1948 with supplements until 1962. The index last contained over 6000 titles which could not be reconciled with the doctrine of faith or morals of the Church. The Index existed for almost 500 years until Pope Paul VI repealed it in 1966."
I only listen to NPR because I want to make it to heaven... on earth?
All risk and no reward. The land of the truly dumb and ignorant. Mandate a jab that even the acceptable Fauci “science” now admits doesn’t do what it was supposed to do, yet carries significant risks up to and including death. Insanity.
Appreciate your 'stack and providing [all] the info: I simply am stunned. What used to be my concern was where is all this leading? While still valid, that has become terribly burdened in the need to be 'more than concerned', in recognizing where we are today.
Mark, you linked to M. Albright's abject disregard of human life even 'children!'... the attitude, nay the practice of disregard for life is seen simply in another front - hundreds of thousands of Ukraine and that regions people dead today; with millions world-wide that will face starvation directly due to this current front/assault on humanity. How many must die, as the question we might find absolutely basic, is not even a consideration for those evil propagators. A very large part of this group are 'leadership' of our country. This is all I got right now-and it's not got any hope showing up. (WH)
Remember that Madeline Albright famously said that the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children was somehow "worth it"--in the interests of our Rules Based Order?
All these pieces of vile information that keep inundating us mean nothing. The global deep state could care less that we know what they're doing and what they intend to do. They're going to do it whether we like it or not. The only thing that will bring this c*ap to a grinding halt is if conservative/patriots gain complete control of the U.S. Dept of Justice. COMPLETE, UNMITIGATED CONTROL.
TG, the world 'leaders' don't give a whit about 'we the people'. Your last couple sentences are correct: "but" I suggest between indoctrinated (not educated) masses and possible 'fixes' being a part of our system for getting those necessary people in power, we may not be able to succeed. I'll not sell short our Patriots capabilities: or will-power. I consider myself a somewhat aware patriot and will continue to do all I can-because I do love this Country and believe the Constitutional Rules of Law; Inalienable rights of humans by God and Freedom are worth whatever it takes. I just can't see the way to overcome the evil just yet. I read 'the Book' and know how it ends: but the battle of Good vs. Evil will suffer many, many casualties. I remain in the fight; but with whom and how do I engage in battle right now? Please, keep looking up: His is our refuge and strength. Even tho' reports such as today's post revealed come out -while we don't know how- His Will will be done. Best at you sir. (WRH)
A lot of people say that we need to educate people. I only partly agree. Most people will never be educated, no matter how much truth you throw at them. The people who need to be educated are the minority of people who'll have the gumption to stand up to evil. We need to continue sharing this kind of info so that all lovers of freedom are fully up to speed on what the evil SoBs are up to.
It's not just in the US. Here in Europe, nearly every government in the West is full of evil globalists, and the "opposition" parties are just the same. The faster we realise that the solutions need to come from elsewhere - peacefully (in case any of Mark's former colleagues read this blog!) - the faster we can get down to work.

This is the schizophrenia that blows my mind: on the one hand, this terrible reality screaming in our faces; on the other, the normies just carrying on as if everything is fine.
A lot of people have issues admitting they made a mistake. Scott Adam’s, Trump, and Ben Shapiro come to mind.
Even Taylor Lorenz:

It’s going to be interested as those getting more boosters, usually of the Left, get more and more adverse reactions.
Scott Adams seems to have admitted his mistake in geeky intellectual kind of way. Trump never will - and it will destroy his electability.
