Keep Your Presidents; I Want a King

It’s very confusing, distinguishing apostles from nutbars.

A year or two back, I came across a guy who was healing people on Youtube. He wasn’t faking it. He didn’t take money for what he did, and he healed pretty unlikely people. He healed Muslims, for example.

I thought he was a good guy to keep an eye on. Then he started saying Donald Trump was going to be reinstated this year. He claimed Trump had dissolved the government, and somehow, he had concealed it from everyone. Biden, in particular, seemed to be unaware of the news.

Now he says God is going to bring Trump back as a king.

I think when you make an extremely confident prediction, and it goes nowhere, you should sit on the sidelines and try to figure out what’s wrong. You shouldn’t fire up your Gopro and make new predictions.

It’s strange that a person who is clearly deluded can also use God’s power to heal.

The bizarre thing is, he’s right about some things. He said some things I agree with. He says God doesn’t like democracy.

I used to think democracy was great. I know we have a republic, not a democracy, but let’s not be pedantic. I thought it was obvious that the people should be able to determine the course of their nation. I had that idea hammered into me from day one, and I didn’t question it, any more than I questioned the assertion that America was the greatest country in the world.

Over the last couple of years, I’ve soured on democracy. It’s a form of government not much unlike allowing small children to decide who gets to drive the school bus. Most people are too ignorant, unfair, and selfish to vote correctly.

A quotation from an unknown author reads, “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largesse out of the public treasury.” That’s a little over the top, or at least it was, before America lost its collective mind, but it’s correct in principle. Way too many people vote for their own short-term, narrow interests. This has always been true, but as we descend into childishness and spite, it is becoming more true than ever.

As people who read this blog know, I believe the Antichrist will have a body, just like Jesus. The body of Jesus is supposed to be a large group of people guided by the Holy Spirit. The Antichrist’s body is a group guided by the flesh, the Internet, and, ultimately, Satan. Anyone who isn’t ruled by the Holy Spirit is ruled by Satan. The body of the Antichrist is a mob, ruled by the lowest, most immoral people in the world.

The body of the Antichrist has the appearance of a democracy, because it has a grassroots look to it. We are told it’s democratic. We are told the poor and the voiceless have come together and worked it out so their movements carry out the orders of the masses. This isn’t true, however. Satan rules demons. Demons rule people who are controlled by the flesh. When those people get together and vote on things, they’re not really trying to impose their own will. They’re doing what Satan has told them to do.

When a nation allows every adult to vote, it gives Satan power. It allows demons to shape election results.

In the Bible, we see mobs voting for evil, over and over. Before Noah, a mob of angels came down, conspired against God, and impregnated women, and the world became so corrupt, God killed the human race. In Lot’s day, a mob of homosexuals surrounded Lot’s house and tried to gang-rape two archangels, as well as Lot himself. In Exodus, a mob defied Moses, who was God’s representative, and chose to worship an idol. A mob voted for Israel to be ruled by kings instead of priests and prophets, and as a result, Israel was put under Saul, a man who lost his mind along with God’s favor. The Hebrews ended up with a divided kingdom, lost tribes, and a long succession of feeble, crooked kings who brought them defeat, captivity, the diaspora, and the Holocaust.

A mob in Nazareth tried to throw the Messiah off a cliff for announcing his arrival. A mob in Jerusalem tried to stone him to death. Another mob voted for his murder and got the Romans to do what they couldn’t do. Various mobs tormented the apostles. At least one apostle was killed to please the masses.

God lets people vote, but it doesn’t mean he supports democracy. It means he supports free will. He lets us choose to destroy ourselves and our nations, but he wants us to let him rule us.

After I watched the Youtube guy, I got some revelation.

If a nation has to vote in order to decide what to do, it means its people don’t know the truth. If they were hearing from God, they would be in one accord. They would hear his truth and know what to do. Voting is conflict resolution. It shows a nation is in conflict; a house divided. No one establishes a method of conflict resolution unless there is conflict. Jesus said, correctly, that a house divided could not stand. It can’t survive forever.

Jesus is the prince of peace. Peace is nothing but harmony born of agreement. Agreement only comes through the Spirit of Holiness. All other forms of agreement are faulty. Many people think Satan’s kingdom is united, but that isn’t true. Satan is a mutineer. Mutineers never have peace. Those under them always strive to supplant them, because mutineers don’t have authority or the fear it commands. The spirits that serve Satan aren’t loyal. They hate him and want to take his place. The Bible says, “The wicked flee when none pursue.”

The Youtube guy pointed out that God is a king, not an elected leader. He said we pray for God’s kingdom to come, not his democracy. The Bible calls Jesus the king of kings, not the king of presidents. The Bible says God’s children are a nation of priests and kings, not prime ministers.

The Bible says there will be a thousand-year reign on the earth after the tribulation. During that time, Jesus will be here in person, as both God and king. He will have believers ruling under him, and they will also be kings. They won’t be elected by ignorant mobs who only think of themselves. They’ll be anointed by God himself.

We should have theocracy, guided by the Holy Spirit. God offered us that, and through the Jews, we turned it down. After that, they got the second-best form of rule: kingdoms. God anointed kings to rule. Eventually, human beings started killing their kings and giving power to elected legislators and executives. It was a step backward.

“Democracy” means “rule by the people.” That, alone, should convince us it’s a bad idea. It shows the hand of the Antichrist at work, but almost nobody understands how his kingdom works, so Americans think it’s smart to be ruled by our people.

We still have a king. Unfortunately, his name is Satan. The monarchical system can’t really be escaped.

Democracy is leftism. American conservatives don’t like to hear that, because they think they own democracy, but it’s true. American conservatives are really leftists in history’s long view. Three hundred years ago, few questioned the legitimacy of monarchy as a system of government. The people who brought the kings down were leftists. They were “progressive.” Real conservatives believed their kings were anointed by God, so they tried to keep them in power. They thought leftism was rebellion against God himself, and it was.

Now when a nation like America selects rulers, the candidates have to pander to absolute idiots who have no idea how the world works. They have to pacify socialists, anti-white racists, women (who vote for chaos all the time), perverts, and even those who want to let unvetted aliens come in and take what we have. A king would not have to be so accommodating.

The American Revolution was a huge mistake. We like to think it was about the crown’s abuses, but the British were also abused back in England. For example, the British Navy was made up largely of white slaves who were hanged if they tried to escape. The British forced people to go to America as indentured servants. The British lived in terror of the royals. The punishments for treason were the stuff of horror movies. The British were still burning criminals alive after our revolution.

The American Revolution was about money and power. Let’s be honest. America was rich in resources, it was full of slaves who provided free labor, and it presented a great opportunity for people who were not nobles or able to serve in Parliament to form their own nation and occupy high office.

Canada and Australia didn’t fight the British. They ended up prosperous. We could have gone the same way.

If we hadn’t rebelled, slavery in America might have ended in 1833, when it was abolished in England. We might never have had the Civil War, which caused the deaths of around 700,000 Americans. We might not have had the North’s abuses during the postwar era. We might not have had the South’s reprisals against freed slaves, which still contribute to racial friction. The South might have been just as prosperous as the North, and today, we might not have the strong North/South antagonism that is working to fuel a second civil war.

If the colonists had stood by their king, the empire might have remained united and powerful much longer. Maybe America and Canada would have remained parts of the UK. If that had happened, would it have been necessary for the US to enter World War Two? Hitler wasn’t afraid to invade England, but would he have felt that way had England had well over a hundred million subjects across the ocean, in a country full of factories, farms, oil, coal, and other resources?

Maybe the combined might of Great Britain, North America, and Australia would have discouraged him.

If we had stayed together, we would have had a gigantic internal market with no trade barriers. Wouldn’t that have made us wealthier?

Maybe George III really was anointed by God. If he was, we should have worked with him.

I’m all done with democracy. I will take part in it because I want to be a good citizen and because I have no choice, but it’s a stupid form of government, and it’s destroying us.

If we absolutely have to have elections, women should stay home, and the right to vote should be limited to intelligent, informed, law-abiding people who have assets. You should have something to lose so you can understand how important government’s actions are. If you’ve never been anything but a burden, you shouldn’t be allowed to vote for the government to give you other people’s wealth.

I hope my understanding of prophecy is right. I hope the rapture and tribulation will be followed by a millennium during which Earth will be ruled by a perfect, omnipotent king. The Biden disaster serves to sharpen the yearning.

Let’s not Let 10,000 Dead Bodies Ruin a Good Grift

Let’s recap. What are the three hostile spirits that will be released before the tribulation? Death, famine, and murder. They cover a lot of ground. Death includes disease and wild animal attacks, for example.

What are we going through right now? A global pestilence, shortages, and an astounding outpouring of hatred and crime.

Today, newspapers (Is that term appropriate any more?) are reporting that 12 big American cities have record murder rates. Not records for this decade, century, or millennium. All-time records.

Let’s look at the list, which comes from the notorious right-wing smear outfit, ABC.

Albuquerque: 82
Austin: 60
Baton Rouge: 137
Columbus: 179
Indianapolis: 246
Louisville: 175
Portland: 72
Philadelphia: 523
Rochester: 71
St. Paul: 35
Toledo: 62
Tucson: 80

This is a misleading list, because it only includes all-time records. Chicago is leading the country right now with 753 murders, which, remarkably, is not a record. New York is at 443. It’s also misleading because the year isn’t over yet. We have about three weeks to go, and it’s looting season because Christmas is coming up. Finally, the list doesn’t include smaller, but still large, cities.

The New York Post notes that all of these cities have leftist mayors. That’s pretty shocking. Who would have guessed?

What they’re not telling you: for the most part, this is an epidemic of murders committed against black people. Most American homicides (a term which includes killings that are not murders) are committed by black people, and black people who murder overwhelmingly choose other blacks as their victims. Cities have big concentrations of black people. It’s also important to note that black women are more likely than anyone else to be murdered.

Oddly, no one is marching or painting streets over this. There is no movement called “Black Women Matter.” We have people wearing shirts that say, “All Cops are Bastards,” but we don’t see, “Civilians who Murder 10,000 Black People per Year are Bastards.” No one on the left cares much about black women or black murder victims in general. They’re just enjoying pushing the police around.

Fewer than 1 in 40 of the roughly 10,000 black homicide victims 2021 will produce will have been shot by the police, and nearly all of the police shootings will turn out to be justified, even in the eyes of black witnesses. Strangely, the police are perceived to be the problem.

Human beings are amazing. “Never mind the floods and landslides. My faucet is dripping.”

For some reason which is subject to debate, societal ills tend to hit black areas first and then spread to the rest of America. I think the spirit of murder will work this way. Americans are already filled with partisan hate, and leftists, in particular, are more than willing to rise up and kill the rest of us. The Internet is like a virtual hell, in which people vomit up their vilest expressions of loathing and cruelty, and when people let hate drive their speech, they are likely to let it drive their behavior later. I expect large armed skirmishes to start popping up before long, and after that, we can expect a state of guerrilla warfare, at least in cities and suburbs; every area near a leftist-dominated city. Leftists will form mobs to punish the “privileged,” and everyone else will respond in kind, having no choice.

I have been wondering why leftists congregate in cities, and I think it must be because life is so easy in cities. Cities hand everything to you. You have no yard to maintain, you never have to travel far to get food, and there are all sorts of people who dedicate their lives to helping you. In the country, you really have to know what you’re doing. No one is going to come take care of you.

Leftists feel everyone else owes them a lot, so it’s natural that they like cities.

I think there are more demons on earth than there were a few years back. If God has released three great spirits to hurt us, then those spirits have other spirits working for them. Demons spread delusion and anger, among other things. I think demons are what cause people to believe the facially absurd myths they subscribe to now. You can’t think a man is a woman without supernatural help. You can’t think a few unjustified police shootings are a big deal, while completely ignoring thousands of murders, unless something external has warped your perception.

I no longer have any doubt that the apocalypse has started. The Bible shows that it starts before the rapture and tribulation. The apocalypse is a process involving multiple events.

I don’t think hate and murder are going away. I am confident covid is here to stay as well, although the Omicron variant’s characteristics make me wonder if covid will continue to be a major threat to life. Maybe a worse disease will hit soon, or maybe there will be a much nastier variant of coronavirus.

Shortages are now routine, and they seem to jump out of nowhere to bite us. I have no reason to think they’ll get anything but worse.

Speaking of men who are alleged to be women, I read that a man on a women’s college swim team has been setting women’s world records. I guess I should grieve, but I can’t help finding it funny. You can’t grieve continuously. A guy named Lia Thomas, at an Ivy League school where everyone else swims slowly, is rewriting the books. He beat a competitor by 38 seconds, which is, I am sorry to say it, hilarious. He literally had time to get out of the pool, dry off, grab a Gatorade, take a seat, and watch the real girls finish the race.

This news is upsetting a lot of people, but I say may he go to the Olympics and sweep the golds in every event he can manage to participate in. Let’s not even stop with swimming. Let’s put him on the women’s track team. Let’s have him box. He might do really well. May others like him obliterate every women’s sports record. I look forward to a day when every women’s UFC competitor is a man, and actual women are afraid to compete.

Why would I say these things? Because the pimple needs to come to a head. Leftism bears putrid, diseased fruit, and society needs to see it. Also, I dislike spectator sports because they are destructive to Christianity. No one seems to understand the hostile relationship between spectator sports and Christianity, but it has a very long history. I’d love to see every spectator sport destroyed. More steroids! More cheating! More eunuchs! Let’s get this over with.

Where are the tennis eunuchs? Serena Williams needs to be exposed as a fraud. I guarantee you, there are male athletes out there who are willing to take hormones and drive her off the court. I want to see them get out there. What are they waiting for? They could become millionaires instead of settling for jobs as low-paid club pros. Castration can take you from mediocre male to world-class female, and no one can stop you if you want to do it. The courts will protect you. Fans will cheer you; even the ones who secretly feel sick to their stomachs. They will be too afraid not to.

There are no known pro tennis eunuchs on the tour now, but people my age recall one. His name is Renee Richards. He was a journeyman male pro in the 1950’s. Then he must have listened to too many Helen Reddy records, because he had himself castrated and started competing with female tennis pros.

You may think he proves eunuchs won’t ruin women’s tennis, because Renee Richards didn’t become a Wimbledon champion. Of course they will. Richards competed as a woman two decades after he competed as a man! He was over the hill, and he still made it to the women’s doubles final. He was ranked in the top 20 when he was middle-aged.

Richards himself now admits it isn’t fair for eunuchs to play women. He has said,””Having lived for the past 30 years, I know if I’d had surgery at the age of 22, and then at 24 went on the tour, no genetic woman in the world would have been able to come close to me. And so I’ve reconsidered my opinion.”

I can’t wait to see more men out there. The truth needs to be made clear.

In other news, I succumbed to temptation and got myself a used Ronco Showtime rotisserie oven. I found it on Ebay. It looks like it has never been turned on.

I couldn’t restrain myself. I started thinking about rib roasts. The one thing a non-rotating oven can’t seem to match is the crust a rotisserie puts on all sides of a roast. Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel like the $70 I’m betting is a reasonable risk.

I could have bought a new Showtime, but they just don’t sound good. They turn too slow, and people say they’re flimsy. The old ones are Korean, which says a lot for Ron Popeil, who could have gone Chinese right from the start. The South Koreans make wonderful things. The new ovens are from China, so no one should be surprised if there are issues.

I’ll probably use it about once a year, but it will be a good tool to have on those rare occasions when a rotisserie is the best option.

I think I can quit adding food equipment for a while. My kitchen isn’t perfect, but you can make nearly anything in it without wishing you had one more tool.

Thank God I don’t like high-temperature hipster pizza, which requires a special oven. If I did, one more expenditure would be imminent.

The World Prefers the Disease to the Cure

It’s surprising how hard it is to find out where the Omicron variant has taken hold in the US. I had to do several searches and compare results. Here is the most up-to-date list of states I was able to locate:

California
Colorado
Connecticut
Georgia
Hawaii
Louisiana
Maryland
Massachusetts
Minnesota
Missouri
Nebraska
New Jersey
New York
Pennsylvania
Utah
Washington
Wisconsin

I’ll save you some trouble: the number of states is 17. And as you can figure out for yourself, that’s almost exactly one third of our states. Since California, New York, and Pennsylvania are on the list, it’s a large fraction of our population.

Here’s a question to which I have not seen the answer in the press: how good is the world’s ability to test for Omicron? How can we know where it is if we can’t test for it?

It has been less than two weeks since Omicron was reported to WHO (Should I call it “the WHO”?), so can it be possible that every nation in the world now has test kits that distinguish Omicron from Delta?

Another question: does Omicron show up at all on tests that detect the more-familiar variants?

If the old tests don’t pick up Omicron, we may have Omicron all over the place and not know it, especially if it’s mild. A lot of people would get false negatives, and if they weren’t very sick, many others wouldn’t bother getting tested.

If Omicron testing isn’t available everywhere, and Omicron doesn’t show up on the old tests, then a lot of Omicron cases are hidden. If Omicron testing isn’t available everywhere, and Omicron does show up on the old tests with no indication that it’s Omicron, then who knows how many Omicron cases are misidentified as Delta?

You could go nuts listing different factual scenarios and trying to figure out the consequences.

Our leaders, scientists, and journalists are completely incompetent when it comes to presenting facts that help the public understand what’s happening. I assume scientists are thinking about the important questions, because they would have to be really stupid not to, but their logic is not filtering down to you and me. Politicians are generally not smart enough to figure out what’s important, and journalists are even less bright.

Let’s look around the web.

Wikipedia has the answer, or maybe it doesn’t. It says existing PCR tests are able to “detect the variant.” That’s not the answer we need. We don’t just need to know if the tests detect the variant; we need to know whether they distinguish it from other variants. When you say a test detects a variant, you’re not making it clear that it can discriminate. Maybe the old tests tell us coronavirus is present, without saying which kind.

It’s safe to draw a few conclusions. It’s clear the public has no way of knowing where Omicron really is, how many cases there are, and how bad the symptoms are. Science doesn’t know these things yet, so neither do we.

Nothing much is happening in Zambia with any strain of coronavirus. The country is a car ride away from South Africa, but Zambia’s daily case count runs around 1/100 of Florida’s, for about the same population.

The Bible says that if God’s people will pray and repent, he will heal their land. I keep saying I think this is why Christian Africa is doing so well. Their leaders–political leaders, not just preachers–called for prayer. Joe Biden would sooner let Sean Hannity give him a polygraph than tell Americans to pray, especially in the name of Jesus Christ. It will never happen. It would be political suicide. The Democratic Party is firmly against Jesus.

I agree with preachers who say Christians ruined America. I tend to get angry at non-Christians who abuse and slander us. They have taken over our country, and they have made public life disgusting in many places. Still, as I have said before, the primary responsibility is ours. God says he will heal nations if his people pray, not if every citizen prays. We’re not doing it. Even our church leaders aren’t calling for prayer. They refuse to say sin caused the pandemic, which is unquestionably true. They’re terrified of becoming less popular and losing income and power.

We’re not confessing that we caused the pandemic, and we are not repenting and praying as a body. We have been failing in the areas of confession, repentance, and prayer for decades. That’s how we got here.

The church is weak and blind. When people consider coming to us for guidance, what do they see? Christians who can’t prophesy and tell them what their problems are. Christians who can’t heal their diseases or rid them of their sexual aberrations. Christians whose prayers for them don’t produce results. They also see Christians who are more interested in arguing with them and criticizing them than helping them meet God.

We ended up with a homosexuality epidemic because Christians couldn’t help homosexuals change. They couldn’t cast out the spirits involved. There was a time when everyone realized homosexuality was sick and destructive, and people who were suffering from it wanted relief, but we couldn’t do anything for them. No wonder they decided their affliction was natural and normal and that we were the problem. We definitely weren’t the answer.

We ended up with racial and class friction because our churches didn’t connect people with the Holy Spirit, who takes people of different races, nationalities, classes, and religious backgrounds and turns them into brothers and sisters.

I feel I got a revelation about my own relatively inconsequential problems. God told me something I knew already, and it applies to all Christians. We should be harder on phony Christians than we are on people who don’t know God at all. We fall into the trap of focusing on the unpleasant things nonbelievers are doing to us, and we behave as though they’re the big problem. They’re not. We cause our own problems by failing to submit to God. Hostile nonbelievers wouldn’t be able to touch us if we were truly transformed by the Holy Spirit.

We are our own worst enemies, literally, and after that come antagonistic spirits. Human beings are farther down the list. God once told me all my problems were caused by lack of prayer. He didn’t say “heathens.” He didn’t even say “Satan.” He didn’t blame my dysfunctional upbringing in a house of abuse and despair. Lack of prayer was number one. Since I chose not to pray enough, saying lack of prayer caused all my problems implied I caused them myself.

I have to quit letting my annoyance with people who hate Jesus and Christians divert my attention and move me to misplace blame. I have to stop saying things unnecessarily that will drive nonbelievers farther away.

I should be critiquing myself and making a point of laying into horrible, toxic clergymen. People who lie about doctrine and make up testimony in order to get rich need to be exposed. They know exactly what they’re doing, so they don’t deserve patience or mercy. Christians should be telling other people Benny Hinn, Creflo Dollar, and the other usual suspects are crooks.

I believe God is showing me that the reason I still have nagging sins I sometimes fall into is that I am overly critical of people who are no worse than I am. My failures are intended to remind me that I didn’t save myself. I was contemptible and determined to hold onto my faults. I would have been happy to sink farther into sin, die in blindness, and go to hell had God not intervened and fought with me.

I am too hard on people who don’t know God at all, and I am not hard enough on liars who pretend to know him in order to bleed those who come to them for help.

I believe these things are correct, so I will try to change my behavior. I think this will bring me breakthroughs and make me more useful in helping others. We shall see.

I’m sure I will fail a lot, but my course is more important than my location. Falling isn’t a big deal as long as you continue moving in the right direction when you get up.

Next Step: Prohibiting Masks?

We’re in the second week of the Xi Unicorn Omicron variant crisis, and so far, things look pretty good. By pandemic standards. A low bar to clear.

Is it okay to joke about coronavirus? There must be someone out there who is making a career of being offended by covid jokes. There has to be a “coronavirus community.”

So far, covid hasn’t turned out to be like AIDS. You can joke about cancer, diabetes, blindness, amputations, and all venereal diseases other than AIDS, but AIDS jokes are like people who won’t wear masks; they do not fly. AIDS sufferers are treated like heroes, and they even have a strange monument in the form of a quilt, but if you get herpes, people just make fun of you. We live in a world where humor related to a behavior-driven venereal disease is treated like blasphemy, but actual blasphemy is a staple of celebrated comedians.

“MY GRAMMY DIED FROM COVID! SHAME ON YOU!” Hmm. My mother, uncle, and aunt died from cancer, my sister and dad survived cancer, and I still make cancer jokes. Other people’s cancer jokes don’t offend me at all. I knew a guy who was dying of cancer, and he made cancer jokes during the process.

I haven’t noticed much sanctimony related to covid humor. I hope my perception is correct, but even if it’s not, I plan to keep my sense of humor while respecting your right to choose not to have one.

“Respect” is not really the correct word.

Let’s see. Omicron is spreading quickly, and scientists expect it to overtake Delta. So far, only mild cases have been recorded. That sounds like good news. We have been cautioned not to assume Omicron is milder than Delta, but within two or three weeks, the truth will be obvious. Here’s hoping we don’t see death spikes.

I saw that about 100 kids in South Africa had been hospitalized. That sounded bad. In the US, covid barely affects kids, and hospitalizations are very rare. Today I read that the South African children have mild cases. Why are they being hospitalized? Beats me. Quarantine? An abundance of caution? Anyway, the mild-symptom theory is still holding up, but it looks like Omicron doesn’t spare children the way Delta does. It appears lots of kids will catch it and become symptomatic, but we shouldn’t expect severe cases in children.

Hope that’s right. Imagine what life will be like if we start seeing waves of children with tubes down their throats.

It has become obvious that vaccines have no or nearly no effect on Omicron. Omicron is causing high-percentage transmissions among groups with high vaccination rates. That can’t happen when vaccines work. Maybe science can produce an Omicron vaccine, but until it does, don’t expect your old shot to do anything except, perhaps, make your symptoms less severe. Given the facts we have heard so far, with Omicron, such help may not even be needed.

Idiotic travel bans are still increasing. Zambia is now in the crosshairs. Countries that have thousands of cases per day are afraid to admit citizens of countries that have one or two dozen per day. Rhodah and I were hoping to go to France and the Netherlands, but France just slapped a quarantine mandate on Zambians, and I believe the Netherlands is currently banning them.

Day before yesterday, I mentioned the then-little-discussed possibility that Omicron might turn out to be nature’s vaccine, infecting huge numbers of people with a mild illness that would prevent them from having serious cases of a dangerous variant. Now another interesting thought has occurred to me: if Omicron turns out to be a godsend that prevents millions of deaths, will countries start imposing Bizarro travel bans? Will they start asking people from Omicron areas to fly in and spread the helpful variant? Will masks be outlawed?

It might be a great idea. Many people hate vaccines, human beings may never comply in numbers that make sense, and vaccines work poorly against Delta and show no sign of preventing Omicron infections. On the other hand, anti-vaxxers can’t prevent themselves from getting Omicron, which may act as a vaccine against severe covid. Vax-worshipers might start to see Omicron as an ally that can accomplish what their hysterical, irrational, fact-ignoring authoritarianism can’t do: it could sweep through countries and give just about everyone helpful antibodies.

If Omicron can do what St. Anthony of Fauci can’t, why not encourage the spread? It would save a large number of lives while restoring peace. Without a scary variant to be afraid of, the mask and vaccine Gestapo would no longer have any reason to torment people, so the anti-fascist movement (the real one, not Antifa) would have less motivation to protest.

It looks like a moot question, because Omicron doesn’t look like it will pay any attention to our plans. It appears to be poised to spread regardless of what man chooses to do, so my best guess is that by mid-January, we will know whether Omicron is a friend or enemy. By then, it should have spread so well we should have all the data we need.

Whatever happens, we know one thing for sure. Chris Cuomo won’t be reporting on it. I am taking the high road with regard to Corleone jokes.

I would say I was shocked that someone with Cuomo’s intellectual and ethical deficits was ever hired, but that would be ridiculous. This is the press we’re talking about. If government vans ever go around kidnapping brilliant people to crack Chinese codes and improve hypersonic technology, you will never see one stop in front of CNN, the big three, or Fox.

I was surprised to see CNN’s harsh report on Cuomo. After covering for him, they changed course and let him have it. They didn’t mince words. A conservative couldn’t have done better.

It makes sense, though. Why did CNN hire him in the first place? Because they thought he was the next Edward R. Murrow? Of course not. They knew he was inept even by journalist standards. Like Don Lemon, he was hired for what he was, not what he could do. He was the son of a governor and the brother of a governor. He was a nepotism hire. Either his brother and dad pressured employers to advance his career, or companies hired him to curry favor with his family and reward the Cuomos for being politically correct.

People who work with nepotism hires build up resentment, even if they support their hiring in a sort of realpolitik way. It had to burn a lot of CNN staffers, seeing Cuomo prove over and over again that he was incompetent while raking in millions they would never have the chance to earn. Once Andrew was gone, they must have realized they no longer had to maintain the farce. Some of them must have seen Chris’s fall as a welcome opportunity to toss an embarrassing son of privilege.

Now CNN can gain social credit while disposing of an embarrassing mishire and, in all likelihood, promoting someone who will be better for their ratings.

Cuomo’s Twitter account still boasts that he’s a CNN anchor and promotes the show he used to host back when he was employed. Wonder how long he’ll take to change it.

Speaking of social credit, it looks like AOC can’t get enough. She made a bizarre, mysterious remark to the effect that the flash looting epidemic didn’t seem to exist. Her claim was so crazy, the Walgreen’s corporation used its Twitter account to debunk it. That’s really something.

Ordinarily, corporations want to seem as hyperwokeded as possible. For some reason, they labor under the delusion that catering to far-left extremists will please the public. Half of America voted for Donald Trump, so I question the logic. Anyway, somebody at Walgreen’s must be getting tired of seeing minority-area stores close due to unprofitability caused by looters.

I always talk about the Jewish legends of Sodom and Gomorrah, which say the cities were known for shoplifting mobs. Here is a passage from Legends of the Jews, a book which contains the material I refer to:

The inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah and the three other cities of the plain were sinful and godless. In their country there was an extensive vale, where they foregathered annually with their wives and their children and all belonging to them, to celebrate a feast lasting several days and consisting of the most revolting orgies. If a stranger merchant passed through their territory, he was besieged by them all, big and little alike, and robbed of whatever he possessed. Each one appropriated a bagatelle, until the traveller was stripped bare. If the victim ventured to remonstrate with one or another, he would show him that he had taken a mere trifle, not worth talking about. And the end was that they hounded him from the city.

This stuff comes from ancient Jewish writings which are known to contain gossip and untruths, but even histories which are largely corrupt usually contain a lot of accurate information. Think about it: even the most dishonest CNN story is probably 90% true. A lot of the Koran is probably true. I think the passage above is true. The parallels to our time are too strong to be coincidental.

The same book says the Sodomites eventually passed a law saying all visitors were to be gang-raped. There are American and Canadian cities where such treatment doesn’t seem impossible. They already have parades featuring completely nude men, and sex acts take place in the streets. The jump to raping strangers isn’t that big, and as a group, sexual deviants have a massive victim complex. Historically, such complexes have been used to justify horrific cruelty. It looks like a guy in Wisconsin just used one to justify killing 6 people with his car.

The book says the angels God sent to examine the city were inclined to recommend sparing it until the rape gang mustered. It also mentions gang looting as one of the sins that provoked the flood.

My personal take on AOC is that she is severely demonized. Her election was improbable, given her background, and it’s hard to find a natural explanation for the speed of her rise to power. Apart from that, she has those crazy eyes. She even looks demonized.

Things look bad for the world, but I’m not worried about myself. I keep getting indications I will be fine. Example: my wife just had a dream. She was walking north on a road, and she was with a lady who prays for people and prophesies. A group of black-and-white spotted cattle came walking down the road from the north. They were large, fat, healthy cattle. One of them broke from the herd, ran ahead of it, hugged the lady my wife was with, and then hugged my wife. It was thrilled to see them.

In the Bible, a pharaoh had a dream about fat cattle, and they represented years of prosperity. The coloring of the cattle in my wife’s dream suggests they were dairy cattle, not beef cattle. I never thought about it until today, but there aren’t any major beef cattle breeds that generally have black and white spots. You can only kill a beef cow once, but dairy cattle are reliable long-term providers. They would seem to represent sources of help that provide continuously. A cow gives milk every day.

The pharaoh also dreamed of skinny cows that represented years of famine. My wife didn’t see any of those.

Maybe the cattle represent the years of the tribulation, during which certain believers will be in heaven celebrating the marriage of Jesus.

I look forward to having my curiosity about the Omicron variant settled. I hope travel restrictions loosen soon, but humanity is not known for its collective common sense.

Illness or Nature’s Vaccine?

Bad news. My modified squirrel trap has not attracted any visitors.

Fed up with the continued destruction of my property by worthless rodents, I took a badly-designed trap and made some improvements. It has been in action for about 18 hours, and nothing has happened. I placed an order for a Squirrelinator, which is a factory-made trap dedicated to, well, you can guess. It should be here in the middle of next week.

I took a chunk of neurotoxic rat bait, smeared it with peanut butter, and put it in my chicken house, which the squirrels have turned into a resort. Later today, I’ll see if they’ve eaten it. I’m going to do whatever has to be done until I have a decent body count.

I have excellent rat baits made with an anticoagulant, but I was afraid to put them in the chicken house because I didn’t want hawks and owls to eat poisoned rodents and die. I’m reading up on it today. It looks like the Audubon Society recommends the anticoagulant as safe for predators, so maybe I should start using it.

In other news, I see another prediction of mine has come true. It’s not a big surprise, because I try not to predict anything that isn’t obvious. The Omicron variant has been found all over the place. Hawaii, New York, California, Colorado, Minnesota…it’s doing the blue state tour.

When we first heard about Omicron, which my wife inadvertently dubbed “the Unicorn Variant,” journalists and even scientists voiced “concern” that it “might” pop up in new places. I’m no epidemiologist, but I said that if you find one case, there are dozens of others you don’t know about. I said Omicron was already everywhere except places like Australia and New Zealand, which have sick, authoritarian rules. I was wrong about Australia, however. Omicron has been found there.

Australia is actually an Omicron hotspot, with more identified cases than America. Maybe arresting people and putting them in concentration camps isn’t working as well as they expected.

Of all the people on Earth, you would think Australians would be reluctant to put people in prison. You would think they had had their fill already.

The usual suspects also said they were worried the vaccines wouldn’t work well against Omicron. I wasn’t worried about that, because I already knew they wouldn’t. They don’t work well against any variant! Why would Omicron be different? The Dutch found 14 infected airline passengers, and today they’re telling us all 14 were vaccinated. If this surprises you, you should go in for cognitive tests and be very careful climbing airplane stairs.

A failure rate of 100% in 14 patients seems pretty bad to me, but then I am no doctor. I am no statistician, but it sure seems like the results could not have been worse. I can’t help feeling there just might be some predictive weight to this data.

I keep hoping Omicron will turn out to be a blessing. So far, there are no news reports suggesting the symptoms are anything but mild, but scientists say Omicron is extremely contagious compared to Delta. Put those things together, and Omicron might be the inoculation man couldn’t create. It might displace the nastier variants and give us resistance to them which would provide either immunity or safety from severe symptoms. It could turn coronavirus into the new common cold. Ineradicable, but not dangerous.

It may turn out to be the Omicron VACCINE.

Or it may kill a whole bunch of us.

We’ll know by the end of the month. That’s my new prediction, and like the others, it’s obvious. Omicron will hit thousands of people this month, if it hasn’t already, and it will have enough time to start producing deaths. If Omicron goes viral metaphorically as well as literally, and waves of deaths don’t materialize, sell your stock in mask manufacturers.

Now if we could just pay the Chinese to create a killer bug that only hits building contractors and tort lawyers.

And CCP members.

One thing is certain: if Omicron saves the world, the CCP will start pressuring smaller countries to call it the Xi Variant.

My understanding is that new diseases tend to become less severe as they mutate. Hope that’s correct. Didn’t pan out with smallpox, though.

If I get sick, my first move will be to blow my nose on my squirrel baits.

It’s amazing how dumb our statist overlords are. Why would anyone think it was smart to enact travel bans AFTER a new virus hit several countries? How badly did you have to do in elementary school math to think that was intelligent? We never find covid variants before they go around the world. By the time they’re detected, they’ve been carried all over the globe. Travel bans just add economic distress and feelings of powerlessness to our problems.

Speaking of feelings of powerlessness, I have realized they may be the worst consequences of covid. It has taught us man is weak and can’t fix his own disasters. It has taught us our governments have way more ability to control us than we had allowed ourselves to think. It has turned many of us into shuffling shut-ins who lack confidence in their ability to change their lives for the better.

It’s very important for people to think they can affect their circumstances. Take that away, and they develop what psychologists call “learned helplessness.” This is one of the reasons welfare states get worse, not better. People start sucking up government money, and they become convinced they need it. They believe going to school and applying for jobs won’t change their lives much.

When you pay someone so much for doing nothing he can’t significantly improve his lifestyle by going to work, he is likely to choose to stay home and make excuses. That’s exactly what’s happening right now. It’s turning America into a much more socialist state, and socialism is authoritarianism. Authoritarianism brings dystopia.

I believe feelings of powerlessness also breed hatred and resentment. If you’re helpless and someone else is responsible for your happiness, you will feel entitled to make that person miserable when things don’t go your way. This is one explanation for the intense anti-white racism in America. Blacks and Hispanics are taught that whites, Asians, and Jews cause them to live in squalor and crime through racism, but paradoxically, many think the people who caused their problem are the saviors who can fix it. They believe the rest of us have special powers we’re not using.

It’s crazy, believing a certain class of people is evil and responsible for your problems, yet running to them over and over again, expecting them to make things right at their own expense.

Why would you expect a malicious enemy to save you?

The rest of us didn’t cause the problems, we’re not malicious, we are not good enough to devote our lives to making things better for you, and even if we were, we couldn’t do it. You have to do some things for yourself.

Anyway, I’m convinced the pandemic has made things worse.

Maybe Omicron will save us from the pandemic. The apocalypse is a delivery process with labor pains, and labor pains come and go. Maybe we’ll get a few years of rest. I wonder. I tend to doubt it, because I have reason to think the rapture is imminent.

One nice thing about proof the variant has spread is that it should convince the nations of the world to drop recently-imposed travel bans. Rhodah and I were planning to visit the Netherlands, and they have an Omicron ban. Maybe they’ll show some common sense and relent.

As for the rapture, I had a disturbing dream last night.

For years, I’ve had dreams about airports. There are things about airports I don’t like. When you’re in an airport, you’re not where you want to be. You want to be somewhere else, which is why you went to the airport. Airports, then, are inherently representative of not having arrived.

Also, airports are dirty, the food is bad and overpriced, and while you’re in airports, you are subjected to degrading control through unreasonable rules.

At least the Hare Krishnas moved out.

Last night, I dreamed I was in the imaginary airport again. My second-oldest friend had been there, but he had left. His family was still there. He had gotten on an elevator to turn himself in.

In the dream, Nazis were in power. My friend and his family are Orthodox Jews. The Nazis were allowing people to turn themselves in. In the dream, you could get on an elevator, and as soon as you got to the bottom, you would be in Auschwitz. You would go through the death camp process and be killed and incinerated. By the time you turned yourself in, you were doomed. There was no way to change your mind and go home, and no one could rescue you.

I couldn’t believe what my friend had done. Why did he trust the Nazis? Even though it wasn’t possible, I tried to help. I saw another Jew, and I ran up to him and tried to tell him what had happened. I wanted to know if he had any idea what to do. He thought I was Jewish and that I was asking him to help me.

Nothing was done. It was already over when I asked for help. I knew my friend was somewhere down below, beyond help, regretting his choice.

I now think the airport I dream about represents the earth. You spend time here on your way to heaven or hell. You get routed one way or the other depending on what kind of ticket you chose. This place isn’t your permanent home.

I don’t know if my friend represented himself, someone else, or a class of people.

The Nazis were the state-worshipers and man-worshipers of the Earth. The beast’s troops. The vaccine-lovers and distancing freaks. People who are willing to give up all their rights because they’re terrified of death. They say, “Trust us, and everything will be fine.”

If the airport represents the earth, then there must be departing flights. You can either go up or down. That seems to be a very Jewish idea. Moving to Israel is considered a move upward, and people who leave are called “yardim,” meaning they descend. The name of the Jordan River comes from the same root.

That’s it for today. Two containers of maple syrup have arrived, and I need to test them. I might skip dinner food and make waffles.

That Foot is Me

It has been a while since I had an interesting project. I started a new one today. I am determined to rid myself of excess squirrels, so I came up with a new trap design.

Actually, I’m fixing an old design. Not long ago, I found that squirrels were chewing on my expensive aluminum gate, so I went to Tractor Supply and bought a copy of a Havahart live trap. This is a box made from wire. It has a door that falls down when an animal enters and stands on a plate where bait is kept.

The name of the trap maker is a comforting fiction intended to deflect criticism from enraged wokiees. Sure, it traps things alive. They’re alive until you get there.

The door was originally installed so the upper hinge attaching it to the top of the cage was pretty far inside the cage. When tripped, the door would fall so its lower end fell close to the end of the cage. In this configuration, a strong squirrel could lift it just by trying to get out. The natural result of pushing outward on the door was to lift it. The door had a spring-loaded bail to swing out and brace against the top of the trap to prevent this from happening.

I remember thinking this was a stupid design for small animals. The triggering mechanism was complicated and not very sensitive. Because of the spring, the mechanism was under a lot of pressure when loaded, and that created friction that made it harder to spring the trap. I thought a squirrel would have to go in and jump up and down on the trigger plate to make the trap work.

My suspicions turned out to be right. The trap turned out to be a pretty good squirrel feeder. It would not trip for squirrels even after I adjusted the trigger mechanism.

I was afraid bigger vermin were stealing the bait. I must have found the trap tripped yet empty; I don’t recall. Anyway, I had some reason to think bigger animals were ruining everything. I bought a bigger trap just like the little one, hoping it would nail not only squirrels but their larger accomplices. I caught a coon in it right away. I shot it in the head and threw it over the fence.

I never caught any squirrels, though.

Yesterday I saw that squirrels had eaten through the backwash hose on my pool pump. Add that to the long list of things they have destroyed. I got mad and decided to get back to killing them. I have been shooting them, but that’s a slow process. I needed something better.

They squat in my chicken house, so I thought about throwing some rat poison in there. I haven’t done it. I have two kinds of rat poison. One is plain old anticoagulant, and the other is a neurotoxin. The anticoagulant could conceivably harm anything that eats a dead squirrel, so I have been reluctant to use it. The other poison lacks this drawback, but it has another one: it doesn’t work. It doesn’t work on mice, anyway. I had high hopes for it, but they came to see my blocks of rat poison as free buffets.

I started researching traps, and I found some neat ones. I started wondering…why didn’t anyone make a trap with a door that moves in the opposite direction compared to my worthless live-catch trap?

I thought it would be smart to have a simple trap with a door that fell behind a squirrel after it entered, with the bottom of the tripped door toward the inside of the cage. A squirrel would have to figure out how to lift the door while shoving himself under it. His natural efforts to get out would push the door down instead of opening it.

Lo and behold, I learned that such a trap exists. It’s called the Squirrelinator. It’s just a wire box with a door that falls so the lower edge faces inward. Reviewers say it’s great.

I thought I should get one. Then I thought…why not make one?

I grabbed my useless live trap, removed the door, removed all the mechanical garbage attached to it, and reinstalled the door backward. Now if a squirrel goes in, the door will fall behind him. If he turns around and tries to go out the door, his weight will close it tighter.

A squirrel genius could learn to lift the door before trying to escape, but squirrels are stupid, and even a smart squirrel would need time to figure things out. I think I can prevent that by checking the trap at short intervals.

It’s pathetic that they call traps “live traps.” What kind of fool releases a live squirrel? I’ll bet nearly everyone does what I do. The old point-blank .22 shot. When you release a squirrel, it just plagues someone else. Releasing vermin on other people’s property should be a crime. Probably is.

My uncle used to do it, however, He would trap squirrels, paint their tails orange, and turn them loose at a nearby airport. Not sure what the point of that was.

He was not a tree-hugging vegan whiner. He let my cousin raise a calf as a pet, and then he slaughtered it without warning her and served its flesh to her for dinner. He refused to let her leave the table until she ate it. I don’t know why he was more merciful to arboreal rats.

I put my modified trap under the bird feeder, which is already known to the squirrels. I took some of Marvin’s seed-heavy bird chow and sprinkled it around the trap. I put a generous smear of peanut butter on the now-disconnected trigger plate, which makes a handy bait tray.

We shall see what happens. If it doesn’t work. I’ll pony up $80 for a Squirrelinator, or maybe I’ll get a roller trap.

A roller trap is pretty brilliant. It’s a rolling-pin-shaped object that rests on top of a bucket or garbage can that has enough water in it to drown rodents. The thin ends function as an axle. You put peanut butter on the thick part, and rodents climb out to get it. The assembly turns, and they drop in the water, dying instantly.

Well, okay. Not instantly. They drown. I don’t like it, but I am tired of paying for squirrel-destroyed items. I’ve prayed about it, and my belief is that God has no problem with people who drown rodents.

You can make a roller trap from a pop can and a piece of thick wire. You need a fairly tall receptacle to prevent squirrels from jumping out. Or maybe you just need to make the water too deep for them to touch bottom.

Here’s another neat trap I just learned about: a bowl of oil.

You get yourself a large bowl and pour half an inch of oil in the bottom. Rodents will smell the oil and jump in. Then they can’t jump out, even if the bowl’s edge is low. Why not? Because you need traction in order to jump, and the oil kills traction.

If you go to Youtube, you can find videos where people get up in the morning and collect bowls full of very distressed mice that can’t get away.

You would need a pretty big bowl for squirrels, but it seems brilliant for smaller pests.

I thought about getting some of those black poison stations you may have seen around dumpsters. They make them in different sizes for both rats and coons. The problem is that bigger animals will tear them up, and, again, I don’t think the poison works well.

It doesn’t take the squirrels long to find stuff near the bird feeder, so I hope to have some answers today. If my trap doesn’t work, the Squirrelinator should, but I will probably try a roller first. I’m also going to put a roller trap in the workshop for mice.

I may put the bigger trap out, too, baited with meat. It has proven effective with coons, and it should also work with possums. It could hold a determined coyote. That would be great. Hunting is inefficient. So much easier to stroll up at your leisure and pop vermin with your favorite pistol.

I’m going to get a gopher trap, too. There are big hills in my yard.

No more Mr. Nice Guy. The day of vengeance is at hand.

This isn’t Happening

The wife and I are riding out another wave. The Xi Omicron variant is threatening to keep her in Zambia.

The name of the variant is one of the most interesting things about it. As you probably know, right-wing morons and conspiracy nuts have suggested coronavirus is a politicized disease. Nothing could be further from the truth. It’s purely coincidental that the World Health Organization went through the Greek alphabet and chose the letter omicron, skipping the designation Xi, which JUST HAPPENS TO BE THE NAME OF CHINA’S SLEAZY PREMIER.

Personally, I call him Chi Penguin. Don’t ask me why.

Yes, when you’re concerned about the perception that wealthy, corrupt nations and business leaders are controlling the flow of information and spinning things so severely no one really knows what’s happening, the best way to build trust is to show you’re terrified of offending a slimy despot who is responsible for organ harvesting, slave labor, forced abortions, political censorship, political imprisonments, and the spread of coronavirus to the rest of the world.

I guess it’s a good thing the Greek alphabet doesn’t contain a letter called Joe.

As of this minute, several developed nations have banned travel from countries in southern Africa, where the virus was first detected. Zambia, miraculously, has been spared so far. Only the UK has banned Zambians, which is okay, because who in his right mind wants to visit England in the winter?

Rhodah and I are hoping for France and the Netherlands. I believe we just lost the Netherlands, but France still has not surrendered. Uncharacteristically.

I preferred to stay in France anyway, but Rhodah is still in that stage of life where she wants to cram as many countries as possible into every trip.

South Africans are mad because they’ve been banned. They say they’re being punished for discovering the variant, which was actually found first in a person from Botswana. They say it makes no sense for covid infernos like the UK to ban South Africans, who currently live in a not-too-disastrous covid area.

They seem to be upset because of the stigma as well. With regard to that, I think they’re whiners. Getting your lingerie in a knot over the fear that other countries may think a disease variant started in your country is silly. They start where they start. The Spanish flu started in the United States. Doesn’t bother me if people say so. I have to admit, though, we must have had a good PR team, hanging the pandemic around the neck of a country 3000 miles away.

At first, I thought Omicron was a bad thing, but now I’m wondering if it’s really a blessing. To the world, I mean. Not me and the wife. For us, it’s a royal pain.

Dr. Angelique Coetzee, the lady who informed South Africa’s government about the existence of Omicron, says every case she has seen has been very mild. I’m no epidemiologist, but…what if this is a milder variant that displaces the one that suffocates people?

What if Omicron infects a big percentage of the world, makes very few people seriously ill, and enhances their immunity to real coronavirus? That would be pretty cool, by 2021’s admittedly pathetic standards.

Edward Jenner, the man who first vaccinated people against smallpox, and who, as far as we know, never had his genitalia sliced off or insisted people pretend he was a woman, found that if he infected people with the mild illness cowpox, they became immune to smallpox. He found this out using a brilliant strategy. He infected a lower-class 8-year-old boy with cowpox, waited until he recovered, and exposed him to smallpox. The boy didn’t die, so they probably gave him a dose of the belt and put him back to work in the arsenic mine.

I guess guinea pigs were expensive back then. No use wasting money.

It would be nice if Omicron circled the globe and made us all resistant to real covid. That would be better than killing millions of us and making our vaccines look even sillier than they do right now.

Where will we go if France doesn’t work out? Turkey is still on the table, as one might expect two days after Thanksgiving, and because the lira is worth about as much as a MAGA hat in Detroit, everything in Turkey is very cheap.

Mexico is a possibility, but I am still detoxing after many years in Miami, and Mexico might activate my PTSD. If Miami is smallpox, Mexico must be cowpox.

I really don’t want to go to the Bahamas. If you don’t want to sit on the beach, fish, get drunk, or engage ladies of easy virtue, a Bahamas vacation basically amounts to 10 days of room service in a badly-cleaned room, cooked by some of the least-enthusiastic hospitality employees since The Shining. The people on some islands are nice, but we would probably have to go to Nassau, where I always got the impression that when restaurant and hotel workers saw me and my wallet walk in to pay their bills, it ruined their day.

When I was in Nassau, staying in a marina on PI, the whole area smelled like poop, flies were a big problem, and it was not unusual to see large pieces of excrement floating by with the tide. Trying to get people to wait on me made me feel like Patrick Swayze in Ghost.

All this being said, I would go almost anywhere to be united with my bride. Well. Not Miami. Not until I’ve ruled out destinations like Somalia, Antarctica, Pyongyang, and the active crater on La Palma.

Today I thought about visiting Zambia. The problem with that, apart from the obvious fact that I would be in Zambia, is that our president’s advisors or his certified nursing assistant might tell him to ban flights from Zambia, and then I would be stuck there until Kamala Harris, AKA The Girl with Colonoscope Eyes, took over and revisited America’s paranoia settings.

Here’s hoping that through Omicron, our kind and patient God accomplishes what man hasn’t been able to do in two years: flattening the curve.

No Comment

It looks like Youtube is deleting my comments. I knew they deleted videos, but I didn’t realize comments were on the beast’s radar.

I watched a video by an obscure Christian. His stuff typically gets a few dozen views. He was talking about coronavirus, which he chose not to call by name.

CORONAVIRUS CORONAVIRUS CORONAVIRUS. CHINESE VIRUS. CHINESE VIRUS. CHINESE VIRUS. KUNG FLU. KUNG FLU. KUNG FLU.

I just felt like saying those things on a site Youtube doesn’t control. I’m sure the beasty boys will delete this blog eventually, however.

Is Youtube using speech-to-text software to check videos for the word “coronavirus”? Wouldn’t be surprising. Speech-to-text should be a gigantic concern for people who love freedom, but for some reason, it is not. Speech-to-text allows our slavedrivers to have machines go through all our digital audio, turn it into text, identify things they don’t like, and allow our words to be used to turn us into unpersons.

Yes, I am still reading 1984.

Speech-to-text has a horrifying potential for abuse, yet conservatives don’t even talk about it as an issue! How can that be? It’s so obvious.

Anyway, I wrote a comment pointing out that Christian African nations had astoundingly low covid rates (in the area of 10 cases per day per nation) and noting that the blessed countries were did better than “gay-friendly”nations like South Africa, which has a big covid problem. Later on, I looked for my comment. The video’s stats still said there had been three comments, but mine was hidden. The creator didn’t do it.

We have a new variant and a new game. The variant is called “Omicron,” or, by some sources, “Nu,” because we haven’t run out of Greek letters yet. It has been found in South Africa, Botswana, Israel, and Hong Kong. For some reason, scientists suspect it developed in an immunocompromised person. It has lots of mutations, so it may render vaccines even less effective than they are now. They’re saying it’s likely it was an AIDS patient in South Africa.

This is all fascinating to me.

Covid seems to spare Christian African countries where the consensus is that God is against homosexuality, and here we are, looking at a new bug science thinks may have from from a person infected with a disease that required homosexuality in order to spread around the world. Anyone can get HIV, but virtually everyone who is infected is a homosexual man, a woman who had sex with a homosexual man, or an intravenous drug user (whose infection has a homosexual man in its lineage). It’s almost impossible for a heterosexual man to get it through normal sex. Were it not for sodomy, AIDS would never have left the place where it arose.

Given that all this is true, is it possible these two plagues will turn out to work together to create a genuine catastrophe? That would certainly reinforce the idea that sexual perversion is one of the things for which God is punishing the world.

Talking about plagues related to sin will get you relegated to the kook bin in a hurry these days. Most Americans are either non-Christians or nominal Christians, so they don’t believe in plagues.

Nominal Christians are remarkable. They claim to worship someone who said almost nothing they agree with! Among their patently non-Christian beliefs: all religions lead to God, everyone goes to heaven, hell doesn’t exist, Satan doesn’t exist, and miracles don’t happen. Believing things like these and calling yourself a Christian stretches the envelope of cognitive dissonance.

To believe these things, you have to believe Jesus was wrong. He contradicted these beliefs many times. To be a Christian, you have to believe Jesus is God. You can’t believe Jesus is God and think he’s wrong!

If you think God is wrong, especially about critical issues, you have a pretty funny definition of the word “god.” A god who lies or suffers from major delusions is no god. Worshiping such a god would be like worshiping a mental patient who runs around claiming to be Genghis Khan or even a Waldorf salad.

One of the weirdest nominal-Christian beliefs is that Satan and hell don’t exist. Jesus went on and on about Satan and hell. He claimed he met Satan personally. If you think you’re a Christian, and you think Satan and hell don’t exist, you must also think Jesus was deranged.

Female nominal Christians are especially likely to say Satan and hell don’t exist. Their reasoning? “God is love!” So in their view, God is love, but he lied about Satan and hell, or some kind of mental illness or fraudulent argument convinced him, falsely, that they existed.

If God is wrong about Satan and hell, why do you think he’s right about anything else? Why believe him when he says he is love?

Actual Christians know two things: plagues existed in Biblical times, and they will occur at the end of the age. The Bible describes all sorts of ancient plagues, including plagues of hemorrhoids and snakes. It also says pestilence will hit the earth as part of the apocalypse. That means plagues aren’t just for the ancients. If God could send a plague to David, he can send one to us today.

In short, pestilence is still caused by sin. Every bad thing is caused by sin. There has to be a relationship between coronavirus and sin. People and animals reward good with evil, but God does not. We are not good. We deserve hell, so we certainly deserve coronavirus.

Overall, countries that promote homosexuality seem to be getting hit harder than others. Islamic countries and countries that oppose Israel aren’t doing well. Christian countries where leaders called for national days of prayer seem to be faring conspicuously better than most.

There are countries that don’t fit these patterns. My impression is that most do well because they turn their citizens into prisoners. Imprisonment is also a curse, so they’re still suffering.

Israel has not done well. Per capita, its case numbers are about like Florida’s, although the death rate is a lot lower. The Orthodox got hit very hard, suggesting their religion isn’t helping them get divine assistance.

It’s not possible to say this many people got infected in this place because of this sin, or that many people got infected in that place because of that sin, and the patterns are not rigid, but the trends are undeniable.

The world’s nations should be turning to Jesus, confessing their sins to him, repenting, receiving salvation, and praying. These actions would solve the problem, along with humanity’s other problems. It’s not going to happen. The human race thinks disease is a random thing that hits the just along with the unjust.

I didn’t think covid was a big deal when it showed up in 2020. I underestimated the US death toll (which may be grossly overblown due to financial and political incentives). I thought it could become a major problem, though, given the possibility of mutations. That hasn’t happened yet, but the Omicron variant might be the beginning of a true plague.

Some scientists are concerned that the new variant could be 500 times as contagious as the old ones, and that vaccines may not deter it. Wouldn’t that be something? If it’s already loose in a bunch of countries, they’re not going to stop the spread, any more than they stopped the original virus. Are we headed for a huge pestilential iceberg?

I believe there are only two possibilities. Either humanity will turn to Jesus (not just “God”) and get help, or the disease will run a course determined by God, and that course might include a never-ending pandemic that continues mutating as long as mankind exists.

In the Bible, some plagues were limited by God regardless of how people responded, and others continued unabated until people repented and prayed. We don’t know which kind covid is.

We already have punishment diseases we can’t get rid of. We can’t get rid of AIDS, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, or herpes. It shouldn’t be a surprise to receive a new one. The big difference is that covid is much easier to transmit and affects more people.

Youtube is tightening its coils. That’s the main thing I wanted to point out. The journey to unpersonhood is well underway for genuine Christians. Satan and his children don’t want God’s children or his help. They would rather stumble around in the dark, relying on science, than change their attitudes or their behavior.

I just put a test comment up on one of my own videos. I want to see what Youtube does.

Interesting thing: Youtube tolerates a user named “Deport the Jews,” and a video about an anti-Semitic black celebrity claiming blacks are the real Jews has lots of comments like this one: “The truth is so hurtful to Satan’s children.”

The other day I speculated that God was deliberately humiliating scientists because they worship a false god. I didn’t go far enough. People also worship government. They’re not just relying on shots and distancing, which were given to us by science. They’re relying on government coercion. God is humiliating man for worshiping himself. That’s why the virus keeps defying man’s reason. It doesn’t matter whether the measures we take make sense. Even if they do, the pandemic will be here as long as God wills it.

By writing this blog, I have destroyed any future hope I had of fitting in with the combine’s thralls. I have set myself up for arrest, imprisonment, violence, impoverishment, and execution. Many millions of other people are in the same boat. The Internet doesn’t forget, and the beast’s children don’t forgive.

Hope I’m right about the rapture. Reading 1984 is fun, but I don’t want to live it.

MORE

Busted.

I went to a couple of videos and posted comments I thought Youtube would not like. They vanished quickly. It’s confirmed. Youtube is killing free discourse. Not a big surprise.

I read that it was not possible to comment on BLM violence or terror, so I wrote a comment saying it was unfortunate BLM’s violence and terrorism were being used to displace repentance. Not a racist comment. Not misinformation. What I wrote was completely true, and it was a valuable contribution to public discussion. It expressed important ideas.

Doesn’t matter. Youtube hates free speech, so my comment is gone. Meanwhile, “Deport the Jews” still has an account.

Have Fun Making Your Elders Miserable

Happy Thanksgiving to one and all, and please remember: today we celebrate genocide, white privilege, colonialism, and the cruel consumption of meat.

This is the day when families all across America will get together to eat canned cranberry sauce and curse at relatives who voted for Donald Trump. It used to be about loving each other and thanking God, but we have evolved.

Today I glanced at the news and saw that leftist media outlets were including helpful edwokational mini-lectures with their Thanksgiving articles and recipes. Nothing makes yams taste better than feeling you are personally responsible for the deaths of countless little brown people.

What is there left that leftism can’t ruin? It even ruins leftism. They take over countries and turn them into elite-ruled concentration camps where everyone is afraid of each other.

I saw so much startling news today, I felt bad for saying there wasn’t much yesterday.

Let’s see. The article about how Thanksgiving is a celebration of hate came first. I also saw that a Catholic university let a campus organization put up a painting of an African Mary cuddling a George Floyd Jesus. That was simultaneously disconcerting and entertaining. I had no idea George Floyd had done so much for humanity.

I saw an article about a school system that insists on putting books that are essentially gay and pedophile porn on its shelves. Did I wake up in a movie? Can this be real? Or was I wrong to think it was possible to educate children without providing them with erotic homosexual fiction?

Another article says the mass killer Darrell Brooks, who murdered 6 people and injured dozens in a few seconds, was granted bail. Bail! A man who calls himself a terrorist, who is unquestionably guilty, and who has tremendous incentive to flee!

He’s already a proven bail-jumper. Hello?

“It’s just like Kyle Rittenhouse.” No, not even close. One of the considerations a judge makes when granting bail is the likelihood of conviction. The evidence in the Rittenhouse case supported acquittal, not conviction, even at the start. Brooks is just plain guilty. Even major leftist news outlets are omitting “alleged” from their stories. This guy is never going to sue anyone for defamation. Not even Gloria Allred would go there.

His bail is set at $5 million, which is actually attainable in the era of crowdfunding. The only question is whether other racists and terrorists will be generous enough to help. Someone had the gall to put up a Gofundme page asking for bail money. Even leftist-controlled Gofundme wasn’t having that.

Another great story: the Levis company, a leftist organization that makes expensive low-quality jeans that fall apart in a hurry, whose management discourages people from washing their smelly worn clothing, has provided facilities to help employees who have been “traumatized” by the Rittenhouse verdict.

They’re afraid their snowflaky minions are so allergic to truth that they require psychological treatment in order to heal scars caused by the acquittal of a man who was always clearly innocent. Imagine what would happen to one of these sissies if something that was actually bad happened to him.

We also have a new strain of covid. Huzzah! Somehow, it has appeared in two places that are very far apart: South Africa and Hong Kong. Scientists are afraid it will spread fast and overcome vaccines. They speculate that it developed in a person with HIV; apparently, such people get chronic covid, and that somehow increases the likelihood of mutation.

Coronavirus and HIV live together in perfect harmony…it’s like the old song. It’s a synergy we did not need.

South Africa is a gay-friendly oasis for coronavirus. “For,” not “from.” South Africa is surrounded by Christian nations where covid is basically gone. Coronavirus is treated badly in places like Zambia and Tanzania, but South Africa gives it a warm refuge.

It would really be something if it turned out sodomy was somehow turning out to make the pandemic worse. Like we needed more evidence that covid is a supernatural plague.

I wouldn’t worry. If it turns out to be true, any scientist who suggests it will be burned at the stake before the information has any impact. I doubt we have to be concerned about troubling stories. We’ll probably go on in blissful ignorance, wondering how such an awful disease happened to our wonderful, innocent race.

These days, all science news has to pass through a filter. Every mainstream disseminator has to ask, “Would Karl Marx kill this story?”

One more story comes to mind, but I read it last night, not today. A gang of black kids on dirt bikes attacked an old man in Boston, ruined his car, and beat him until he had to be hospitalized.

This story was disappointing for several reasons. First, it was probably “revenge” for a just acquittal. Second, it showed that mob crime is gaining traction. Third, it was remarkable in that it covered a long-existing phenomenon the MSM will not discuss.

Black males on illegal dirt bikes have been wreaking havoc in cities for years. You probably didn’t know that, because it’s something Karl Marx wouldn’t want printed.

As readers know, I mentored Travis Quinn, a young black man who was attending the University of Miami. He told me things most white people don’t get to hear. He said Martin Luther King Day was extremely dangerous. People waited for MLK Day to settle grudges and even kill others; they knew law enforcement was always lax on that day. He said his father used to stay home and arm himself on MLK Day. He said gangs of black males on dirt bikes celebrated by zipping around ghetto neighborhoods committing crimes.

This was a black man telling me this. A Kaepernick fan. I didn’t hear it from Dan Bongino or Sean Hannity.

A dirt bike is very empowering for a criminal. Dirt bikes don’t have license plates and they are extremely mobile. A gang of men on dirt bikes can’t be chased or identified. Dirt bikes are also much cheaper than street bikes.

It may be that dirt bike criminals are figuring out they don’t have to confine their activities to ghettos. That will be bad for the rest of us. In a world where dirt bike gangs run around lynching people, citizens will have strong motivation to keep rifles in their cars. A Glock 17 is not adequate when several dozen racist assailants surround you. We may end up with states where keeping an AK or AR on board is a popular and wise option.

We could see a lot more Rittenhouses created, or we could see a tide of dead non-black bodies, or both.

Black neighborhoods typically punish people who inform, and the police have longstanding practices of letting crimes go investigated and unpunished in these places. The authorities have been afraid of being called racist, and they probably thought black crime wasn’t a big deal unless it escaped into majority areas. Journalists suppressed the news about dirt bike gangs. Now we see what happens when we let crime fester.

God bless America. What a country.

I was praying last night, and as usual, I asked God to rapture his people quickly. This planet is outliving its usefulness. I was thinking about sudden freedom from hate, disease, and lack. I was picturing a world free of horrible suffering, which is what we have always had. I had the idea that God would be as relieved as rapturees were. Then it occurred to me that I wasn’t thinking about the tribulation.

When the rapture comes, the world’s problems won’t go away. They’ll get much, much worse. People and animals will suffer a lot more than they do now, and it will go on for years while rapturees are enjoying a party in heaven, secure in the knowledge that they will never have problems again.

I still want the rapture to come soon, but thoughts of the tribulation take some of the shine off of it.

I am still reading 1984, going through a chapter or two per night. Last night, I got a new revelation of the similarity between the outlook of characters in the book and people living in 2021.

The lovers the book is about are named Winston and Julia. They both hate the authoritarian state. They find it ridiculous. They consider its doctrines lies. They are forced to pretend they are rabid supporters of the Party, but inside their own minds, they have created refuges of sanity and rebellion. The Party can’t touch those refuges at first.

Winston and Julia know they will be caught, because the Party catches everyone who disagrees with it. They know they will be arrested, tortured, released, rearrested, forced to make false confessions, and executed. They know there is no possibility a resistance movement will change society and save them.

I realized Rhodah and I are like Winston and Julia. Things are going well for us now, but we live in a deranged world where we can’t have the kind of future we want. The American Dream is no longer possible. We may be able to have kids and live well for a while, but our family’s lives will never be normal, and America will get crazier and crazier, assuring people like us never fit in. Sooner or later, if we remain here long enough, the Thought Police of modern America will breach our refuge and “correct” us.

Perverts, POC racists, statists, and pagans will get more and more powerful, as will foreign enemies. Freedom will disappear even more completely than it already has. The Constitution, if it still exists, will mean nothing. We will be expected to become part of an electronically-curated global hive being; a disgusting, computer-tamed artificial family that shuts God out.

Winston and Julia were waiting for something. They were waiting for the Thought Police to discover them and bring about the inevitable: defeat. Rhodah and I are different. We live in victory, so we are waiting for deliverance. Both couples are subject to alienation, persecution, and rejection, but one is guaranteed an escape followed by glorious eternal life in God’s presence, while the other is guaranteed torture, humiliation, loss of self, death, and erasure from history.

Winston and Julia give me an insight into the grey, mildewed minds of people who don’t know God and fear death. Orwell’s lovers hate their lives, but they have no reason to anticipate anything better. They are cynical and carnal. They think fornication has value because it lets them rebel briefly and forget about the Party. Julia revels in her sluttiness, saying the men she has had may run to three figures. Winston fantasizes about spreading syphilis to the ruling class. That appeals to him as a legacy.

They’re like Satan himself. He knows he will spend eternity in agony, humiliated, surrounded by beings that hate him, so his only pleasure comes from fighting the system. Satan can’t build a future for himself, so he finds pleasure in destroying the futures of others.

Here in the real world, not every godless person hates life. Many get what they want here on Earth, at least for a fleeting moment. But they tend to be cynical and, in the long view, hopeless.

That’s why they love phrases like “bucket list,” “best life,” and “YOLO.”

I feel that God led me to read the book, to show me how different my experience is from that of a person who thinks the supernatural doesn’t exist. The sad thing is that those people are denying the existence of something other people know to be real. Know, not just believe.

People reject sound, credible testimony from reliable individuals because they’re in love with homosexuality, fornication, marijuana, or something else God won’t let them have, or sometimes because they’re angry at God because he let someone die or because bad things have happened to them. The truth is the truth, though. You have to acknowledge it and act on it. Not liking it won’t change it, and if you don’t accept it, there will be terrible consequences.

Laymen and Their Brilliant Legal Opinions

Today’s disturbing evidence that Americans are subject to supernatural deception: leftists are saying the Rittenhouse verdicts set dangerous precedent.

We keep saying “verdict,” but there were a bunch of verdicts.

Leftists are claiming that as a result of the verdicts, it will now be relatively easy for conservative gunmen to go out in public carrying rifles and shoot whomever they want. Antifers are encouraging each other to buy guns and take them to riots or protests or whatever you choose to call them. The excuse is that they now face hordes of charged-up Rittenhouse clones who think they can’t be prosecuted.

Is there any point in writing about this idiocy? No one will be convinced by what I write, even though I will write truths that are self-evident. You will agree with me if you’re a reasonable person who agreed with me before reading this. Otherwise, there is very little hope the thick bone of your skull can be breached.

Here I go.

The Rittenhouse homicide verdicts did not set precedent of any kind.

In order for a case to set precedent, there has to be something novel about it. It has to change the law, usually by answering some question that hadn’t been answered in the past.

In order for precedent to be binding on a court, it has to be binding within the jurisdiction of whatever court it answers to. For example, let’s say a Florida state court in the Third Judicial District decides it’s illegal to put margarine on waffles, as it should be. Other judges in the same district, or even the same judge, can ignore the decision in other cases. A court in the Fourth Judicial District can ignore it. The Third District Court of Appeal can ignore or reverse it. A court in another state can ignore it. Federal courts can generally ignore it, although sometimes federal courts have to apply state law, and I don’t want to get into that subject, because I would have to Google. In jurisdictions where the decision is not binding, at best, it will be considered “persuasive.”

Rittenhouse was acquitted in the Kenosha County Circuit Court in Wisconsin. There are courts of appeal above the county circuit courts, and there are other circuits. There is no reason to think other Wisconsin circuits would automatically respect a Kenosha County decision, unless Wisconsin laws are peculiar. There is no reason to think the appellate courts or supreme court would feel bound. The federal courts in the area certainly would not, nor would any court outside of Wisconsin.

Actually, I believe Wisconsin courts are famous for decisions intended to curtail the use of margarine. But I digress.

In short, Kenosha County precedent isn’t precedent anywhere else.

Also dispositive: juries can’t set precedent. A precedent is a ruling of law. Juries don’t make those. They look at evidence, compare it with jury instructions, and decide whether the evidence and instructions match up. Jurors are not competent to make legal rulings. No one expects them to. The Rittenhouse verdicts were findings of fact, not law, delivered by a jury, not a judge.

Finally, the Rittenhouse case didn’t change the law surrounding self-defense. There was nothing novel or interesting about it, apart from egregious prosecutorial misconduct. It was cut-and-dried. A young man shot someone who tried to grab his rifle after chasing him down, on the same night the assailant threatened to kill the young man and cut his heart out. An armed mob tried to lynch the victim, and the victim shot some more attackers. Self-defense. Simple. What Rittenhouse did–using deadly force to defend himself, I mean–was legal in every state. It was legal in 1950. It was legal in 1900. Nothing new.

It would have been legal even if the mob had not been armed. There is no jurisdiction in which you are required to let a mob beat you instead of using deadly force.

If you’re a leftist, look at it this way. Imagine Kid Rock, George Zimmerman, Donald Trump Jr., James Woods, and 75 Proud Boys, all unarmed, chased Lil Nas X down and started beating him, and he shot some of them and ran off. Would you have a problem with his actions? Would you seriously complain that an armed gunman had shot unarmed protestors? You would think no one would be stupid enough to blame the victim.

The only interesting legal ruling in the case involved the judge’s refusal to try to enforce Wisconsin’s confusing law regarding minors and weapons. That ruling didn’t save Rittenhouse from a murder conviction, however. It was a separate issue, and the best leftists could have hoped for was a misdemeanor conviction, most likely followed by probation and, eventually, expungement.

So:

1. A Kenosha County Circuit Court ruling of law is not precedent, even in the Kenosha County Circuit Court.

2. A jury rendered the verdicts, and juries can’t set precedent.

3. No novel rulings were made with regard to the Rittenhouse homicide charges.

In other words, the Rittenhouse judge did nothing to make it easier or harder to shoot people.

Apart from the law regarding minors and weapons, which carries a misdemeanor penalty, and which will probably be revisited by the legislature in the aftermath of the judge’s refusal to enforce it, nothing will change.

The conclusions I’ve presented are not wild opinions. They represent centuries of well-settled law. They are irrefutable. They’re about as debatable as a statement that people who work in courthouse doughnut kiosks can’t rule on objections.

It’s really something, seeing leftists stand up for blatant, unquestionable prosecutorial misconduct. When did that become a leftist position? Aren’t they the people who fought for Miranda rights and free public defenders? Aren’t their chosen officials turning thieves loose right now in California and New York?

For centuries, leftists have been telling us the police and courts have to go easier on suspects and defendants and do more to protect their rights. The Bill of Rights is a leftist document. It was written by men who didn’t like all-powerful kings and their prosecutors. Now, suddenly, it’s a good thing when prosecutors run their ethics and their souls through the garbage disposal in order to convict the innocent.

I will never convince anyone, regardless of how obvious the truth is.

What I write here will never establish precedent in anyone’s mind.

Leftists have supported kangaroo courts in the USSR, China, and just about every other socialist country, so I should not be shocked.

The blindness we are seeing now is willful, and it is extreme. It should be impossible for so many Americans to believe things which are clearly, demonstrably untrue, and which have been proven untrue repeatedly all over the web and on global television. The only plausible explanation is that we are duped by evil spirits because most of us don’t know the Spirit of Holiness, who is the one in charge of opening eyes to reason.

Lately, I have been working on prophesying. You could say I’ve been practicing it. It has been getting easier and more fluent.

Sometimes I get angry when I read the news, and I feel like typing comments or fuming in private. I have to forgive people over and over and think about my own sins. I find that when I spend a long time praying in tongues and prophesying, the anger disappears, as does my interest in the news.

For years, I’ve been saying the Internet was going to be the Antichrist’s counterfeit version of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit unites God’s children and teaches them all exactly the same things. He brings peace and harmony by ending disagreement. He cleanses us of evil emotions and thoughts. He also commands us like an army. On the other hand, the Internet fills us with anger and disinformation. It gives different people different versions of facts. It spreads pornography. It encourages us to hate each other. It is being used to command mobs to do evil.

Yesterday I realized it made sense that prophesying and praying in tongues made things better. Doing these things is like surfing God’s Internet. We spend too much time on the web, absorbing filth, and not enough time being cleansed, informed, and refreshed.

I believe my experiences with tongues and prophecy confirm what God told me about the Internet and the Antichrist. There is always symmetry in the supernatural, because Satan has no original ideas. He has to copy God. He can’t create anything like the Holy Spirit, so he made a fake out of chips, screens, and wires.

If surfing Satan’s counterfeit causes problems, you would expect having the Holy Spirit flow through you to fix problems.

One thing I keep hearing goes like this: “Don’t worry about the people who will not listen. They can’t be saved, and they have no future.” Ominous. I also heard, “I am here to reap.” I hope that was God and not my imagination.

God has told us to covet prophecy, so obviously, we are expected to receive the gift. It would make no sense for him to tell us to set our hearts on something we can’t have. After all, he says, “Delight thyself also in the Lord, and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

I hope we don’t have to wait much longer. The thought of me sitting here typing blog entries in 2055, in a world where it is nearly impossible to tell men from women, is a little too much.

The Left’s Justice Crusaders Continue to be an Inspiration to All

Stuff I predicted keeps coming true.

Several years ago, I said flash mob looting was going to sweep the country in the future. Looks like it’s starting.

San Francisco rioters materialized at expensive stores shortly after Kyle Rittenhouse was rightly acquitted. How about that timing? What a coincidence! Presumably in order to rid the world of injustice and establish a fairer society, they broke windows and swarmed stores like Louis Vuitton and Bulgari. They also hit Nordstrom and Neiman-Marcus in Chicago. Nothing says “civic-mindedness” like a stolen $800 baseball cap.

That price is not something I made up, by the way.

Since the first lootings, San Francisco has fallen into a frenzy of store raids. “Dozens” of stores, according to Fox, have been raped. Guess what they’re going after now? Pharmacies and weed dispensaries.

Nothing says “civic-mindedness” like wearing your stolen $800 baseball cap when you go out to steal weed and prescription painkillers.

Of course, they’re also hitting other retailers. Christmas is coming, and shrewd thieves won’t want to give precious drugs and designer clothing away. They’ll need modest gifts for people they care about less than themselves.

I don’t know why the looting wave didn’t start sooner. I suppose God restrained people. They knew how to do it, and they certainly weren’t inhibited by morality. The new lack of enforcement appears to be a factor.

The web says 175 shots were fired at cops trying to stop San Francisco social justice looters, so now it’s not just theft, conspiracy, and RICO violations. It’s attempted murder on a very large scale.

When I said this would happen, I also said the criminals would eventually realize they were stronger than the police. Maybe that’s happening now; the shooting suggests they are confident the police can’t cope with them. San Francisco cops didn’t stand up to them. They retreated and hid. It’s probably not possible for police to engage large groups of killers in the street, due to concerns about stray shots hitting innocent people.

Maybe the choice we face is this: have the police rain bullets on our cities, or kiss stores goodbye.

The Rittenhouse verdict pushed things along, as did San Francisco’s election of an activist DA who refuses to prosecute people. He put outlaws in a position where one could steal thousands of dollars’ worth of things with very little risk of arrest, let alone prosecution. Criminals weigh risks and rewards. It’s why they shoot up gun-free zones, not gun shows.

If I were a criminal, and I knew the worst possible outcome from my actions would be a fine, and that unlikely, I would do the math and go out and loot.

Things should continue to get worse, especially if the men who detained and shot Ahmaud Arbery go free or only receive light sentences.

I’ve also complained that leftists’ deliberate rejection of truthfulness would convince black people they were victims and therefore entitled to commit racist crimes. This was not a brilliant prediction, because to a large extent, it had already come true when I predicted it. Now it’s worse. A black criminal has used a car to murder a bunch of old white women.

The Daily Beast (apt name) is making fun of conservatives for saying the killer, Darrell Brooks, was motivated by the Rittenhouse verdict. Well, let’s see. Brooks is black. He has a history of spewing hatred against the police, just like BLM. He killed people in Waukesha, the state where Kyle Rittenhouse defended himself. He drove into a crowd of white people. The group of elderly dancers he hit was almost exclusively, if not completely, white.

Doesn’t look good, does it?

Any reasonable person would think it was likely that Darrell Brooks thought he was doing justice and fighting white supremacy when he killed his white victims. It’s not certain, but the evidence is very strong. If the murders aren’t linked to Rittenhouse and the fatuous, misguided pursuit of bogus social justice, then what else explains them?

Let’s see. A black man who is not a racist is driving down the street one day, he sees a parade featuring a white dance team, and he is filled with rage because…of what? Because they’re blocking traffic? Because he doesn’t like the music? Because he’s a Muslim and he hates Christmas parades? What reasonable explanation is there, apart from premeditated racist mass murder?

A BLM activist went online after the killings and said, “it sounds possible that the revolution has started in Wisconsin,” referring to the attack. I guess the people at The Daily Beast would consider him a right-wing troll.

I think this guy decided to avenge the acquittal of a white man who defended himself from a lynching by killing multiple white people. I believe the evidence will take us there, because no other reasonable explanation presents itself.

He’s going to be convicted unless the cops or prosecutors make some kind of bonehead mistake. What then? Will leftists start calling him a political prisoner? Will there be blatantly-racist “Free Darrell” shirts? Will it seem necessary to kill more white people to avenge Darrell the hero?

If things get bad enough, black areas are likely to sustain devastating losses. They are in the minority, they can’t match the armament the rest of us have, and the majority is much, much better at violence. Black activists need to think about these things and discourage cultural suicide committed in the name of self-destructive lies. Unfortunately, the most powerful black activists only care about themselves. The worse things go for other black people, the more money they make, so if the majority inflicts heavy casualties in black areas, it will be nothing but helpful to people like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

The police are saying the attack was not terrorism. That’s asinine. Of course it was terrorism. A man belonging to one group attacked innocent civilians belonging to another group, for the purpose of advancing his political goals. That’s exactly what terrorism is. The cops must have meant the attack wasn’t related to Islamism.

It’s not good. The swimming pool full of gasoline has been with us for a while, and now people are throwing in matches. The Rittenhouse threw a match in because they couldn’t convict an innocent man. Brooks threw one in because he loves the victimhood myth and doesn’t care about the truth.

Satan is doing a wonderful job, turning people against each other. It’s all so unnecessary. Christians who are full of the Holy Spirit love each other and side with each other without regard to race or nationality. Two Spirit-led Christians of different races will side with each other against the groups from which they emerged. This happens all the time. It’s normal. It’s expected. Well, not by the press. They seem to think Christianity is white supremacy.

If humanity had accepted the Holy Spirit to a greater degree, we wouldn’t see what we’re seeing today. People would identify with the family of God, not races or nations. We wouldn’t say this group or that group was the problem. We would say Satan and sin were the problems.

I’m not prophesying, but I think racist flash mob crimes will increase for the foreseeable future, barring an extraordinary governmental response. I expect the left to continue doubling down on self-righteousness and self-deceit, making more people immune to recovery. Sooner or later, we will probably see a serious increase in armed, mostly-white gangs (“militias”), claiming to be Christians yet spouting racist canards and blaming the Jews for the world’s problems.

The press will treat the conservative gangsters as though they represent all Christians, and they will call them terrorists, but they will continue calling leftist gangsters activists and protestors.

I’m praying for Jesus to come for us quickly. I want out. I do not want to have to carry a rifle when I go to the grocery store, and I certainly don’t want to be shot because I refuse to carry a rifle.

Rotterdam Police Shoot Protestors

The news is full of unpleasant surprises, and that’s no surprise. Business as usual in 2021.

The Dutch, of all people, had a covid riot, and the police fired actual lead bullets at participants. The “progressive” Dutch! I thought all they did was vote for socialists, frequent prostitutes, and smoke dope. American leftists love the Netherlands. How can leftists go on, now that one of their model countries is shooting protestors with lead bullets?

Wait. I forgot. Leftists are okay with GOVERNMENTS owning guns. But American leftists get upset when our police shoot criminals. By “criminals,” I don’t mean people who go to Kroger without masks or dangerous people who feel entitled to contribute their input on the courses their children are taught. I mean violent criminals like Jacob Blake, an accused rapist who was shot at the home of the woman he was accused of raping, while trying to knife a cop.

Shouldn’t they be upset when the police shoot protestors? I don’t think they are. They’re not flipping out about it on American TV.

It’s confusing. The protestors were mostly white, and they were enemies of the gospel of St. Anthony of Fauci, so they were bad, but aren’t all cops bastards? Isn’t that the scientific consensus?

I still remember when leftists hated the government and loved the USSR, and rightists took the opposing positions. Now leftists call rightists “comrade” and take up for the government all the time, except for the police and the military. Rightists aren’t particularly cozy with Russia, but we now side against the government regularly. But we love the military and the police, who…are part of the government.

Anyway, it’s weird to see the Dutch shooting protestors. Whoops. Rioters.

Covid protests are going on all over the world now, in places where you would never expect it, and if you want to find out about it, you have to mine the web. You have to search. MSM journalists are openly hiding it, if openly hiding is something that can actually be done. They’re muffling news people can easily uncover by going around them, thanks to the Tim Berners-Lee, the man who will be remembered as the destroyer of retail stores and history’s single most effective facilitator of the dissemination of pornography.

It’s remarkable when Fox, the anti-establishment channel, buries important stories about covid protests and riots. It shows how flimsy their anti-establishment facade is. Fox is run by death-fearing Northerners, for all its faux pro-red-state posing. They’ll help Republican presidents and air funny stories about people saying, “Let’s go, Brandon,” but they worship at the altar of St. Anthony. If you work for Fox in New York, you take the shots, or you get tested every single day, or you go work for an AM station in Wyoming.

The protest and riot stories are problematic for the MSM, because they shatter the myth that covid measures are well-tolerated by the public. A lot of people are showing up to protest. It’s not just a few American kooks in red hats.

These stories are important.

Civil liberties are important. Leftists and poorly educated people don’t understand this. It’s a very big deal when you tell a citizen of a republic he can’t go outside except for short periods for certain purposes. It’s incarceration. Courts call it “house arrest.” It’s what the Constitution refers to as deprivation of liberty.

In any free country, you should pay attention to citizens who are upset over being deprived of liberty. Frivolous, illegal, and unwarranted mass infringements can’t be tolerated. They lead to authoritarianism. Mass deprivations have to be examined and reexamined, continually.

Making adults take poorly-tested vaccines is a draconian measure. It’s not the same as requiring kids to take old, crusty shots that have proven safe over multiple decades.

There is now research suggesting the mRNA vaccines may reduce the body’s ability to repair severed DNA strands. We were told this was impossible last year. They said nothing would get inside our cell nuclei as a result of these shots, and now scientists at two universities have found vaccine-created spike proteins exactly where they weren’t supposed to be, inhibiting two proteins that help us fix damaged DNA.

DNA damage causes cancer and horrible hereditary diseases. Do the mRNA shots lead to DNA damage that causes catastrophic disease? We don’t know. Should we keep forcing people to take the shots while we wait for the answer?

Right now, the web is full of smug MSM and government articles saying mRNA vaccines can’t change your DNA, but they don’t have to change your DNA to cause problems, do they? If they prevent the repair of DNA damaged by other means, aren’t they accomplishing the same end? I don’t know, but you have to wonder. It looks like researchers need to look into it.

How would you like to find out you and your year-old child had a hereditary predisposition to cancer, caused by an mRNA vaccine? Events like that could lead to some interesting outcomes. You could take the shots, get covid anyway, find out you have cancer while you’re being treated, and then die from both.

Protestors aren’t whiners making a big deal out of nothing. They have to be heard.

Human beings are stupid for practical purposes, even though we don’t have to be. We are not taught to think critically. We could do better, but we prefer to be lazy and irrational. You would think our leaders would be people who were driven by logic, but they aren’t. They run on emotion and cravings for power and admiration. What do they do when they want us to take vaccine shots? Do they present solid arguments? Do they explain things patiently? For the most part, no. Generally, they rely on peer pressure, and when that fails, they use coercion.

Peer pressure and coercion are manipulation. Manipulation is what people use when they won’t or can’t rely on logic, which is truth. Manipulation is evil. No one seems to be talking about the evil of pro-vaccine manipulation. It’s evil even if the vaccines are wonderful and necessary.

The people who want us to take shots have some facts on their side, but instead of relying on facts to get cooperation, they shame us. They arrest us. They fine us. They gaslight us. They feed us misinformation they haven’t vetted. They gag us, nullifying the First Amendment, even when we tell the truth. It’s not a good system, regardless of the goals.

When I was a kid, kids were taught that peer pressure was evil. It was considered obvious. Peer pressure was the biggest factor in promoting drug use and reckless premarital sex. No cheerleader ever slipped off her prom dress and took on the basketball team because it was part of her long-term plan for success and self-improvement.

People were tired of reading that college kids on LSD had jumped out of windows because they thought they could fly. They were tired of finding out local children had drowned in vomit after using heroin. They were tired of seeing girls turn up pregnant. They were upset because their kids were contracting VD. As a result, schools started telling us peer pressure was bad, and they were right.

Now our government is the kid who wants you to smoke your first joint. “Everybody else is doing it.” “You won’t be cool if you don’t do it.” “You can’t hang out with us if you don’t do it.” “It’s actually good for you.” The government/press/entertainment combine is telling us we are malevolent, untouchable ignoramuses if we don’t shoot up.

Yesterday, I told my wife it was unnatural for a society to know less than it knew in the past. I repeat it today. We used to know things we no longer know, even though we know we knew them. That shouldn’t even be possible, except maybe in a Donald Rumsfeld meme.

I’m extremely glad my wife and I didn’t take the mRNA shots. I’m glad we found out about the new research before accepting mRNA boosters. I hope the adenovirus shots we took don’t produce similar concerns. Some think covid itself damages DNA. I hope that isn’t true, but I can’t do anything about it, so it’s a concern that won’t affect my actions.

I keep trying to figure out whether the shots do any good at all. They still tell us they reduce the risk of death very significantly, but they are also telling us 2021 has already produced more than twice as many deaths as non-vaccinated 2020. One hopes skillful interpretation of the statistics will show that the death toll rise would have been worse without vaccines, but nothing is clear right now.

Is it because 2020’s problems started relatively late in the year? Is it because people who got sick in 2020 died in 2021?

So far, the experts haven’t been able to answer simple questions; they tend to parrot guesses made by other experts, often without characterizing them as guesses. The information they give us is very unreliable, so I hold out little hope that it will firm up in the future.

If it weren’t real life, it would be funny if we got a worldwide cancer epidemic a couple of years from now. It would be like the plot of a Terry Gilliam movie. What will the zealots say if something like that happens?

Coronavirus doesn’t make sense. It refuses to yield to logical analysis because it’s a supernatural punishment. That’s why we have a doubled death rate after vaccination. It’s why our experts keep getting everything wrong. God is humiliating science.

When God sent 10 plagues to humiliate the Egyptians, he didn’t pick the plagues randomly. He chose plagues that disgraced Egypt’s false gods, like an angry mother hanging a bedwetter’s sheets out of a window. He sent darkness to shame the sun god. He turned the water into blood to shame the water god. He killed livestock because the Egyptians worshiped a cow. He exposed the magicians of Egypt, showing they were helpless before his power. It looks like he is now allowing a slippery disease that defies our medical gurus, for the purpose of humiliating their god: science.

Of course, science isn’t really their god. Real scientists are slaves to logic, not fear of death and ideology. Real scientists don’t censor reasonable people for political reasons. Modern scientists worship a warped caricature of real science.

God is showing us how weak we are and how little we know. He’s showing us what happens to his protection when we promote sin and pride and shame the obedient.

Meanwhile, the Zambian program of vaccine avoidance, social proximation, mask mandate defiance, and mass prayer to the God of Christianity, directed by the country’s president, is generating 12 reported cases per day, out of 20 million people, in a country where the delta variant has already come and gone.

Florida, with a similar population, is doing great by American standards, and we have an average of 1437 cases per day, or only 120 times the Zambian rate.

The Bible says that if God’s people will pray AND humble themselves AND turn from their sin, he will heal their land. A preacher I like pointed out that it doesn’t say “everyone.” Just God’s people. But America has had no real national day of prayer, even among Christians, and the very idea that we should humble ourselves and admit we have provoked God is anathema. Saying a thing like that can destroy your career. Correction is hate; don’t forget that.

On a related note, I am reading 1984. I saw the movie the other day. It was not easy to watch. The warnings said there was nudity in it, but I figured a very brief glimpse of John Hurt’s rear end was pretty unlikely to entice me to sin. Much the opposite, in fact. Then I found out there were sex scenes, so I had to do some fast-forwarding, even though the actress was not much to look at.

After I saw the movie, I downloaded a PDF from Google Docs and ordered a paperback so I could say I paid royalties.

I’m amazed at how little I remembered. I’m sure I read it when I was a kid, because everyone did. A lot of it seems new to me. A few decades can really suck things out of your memory. I had forgotten, “2+2=5.”

You can dissect the book and come up with lots of clever commentary, but the two things about it that impressed me the most were the Party’s hatred of truth and reliance on peer pressure.

The book is about a post-nuclear future under an authoritarian government, as everyone knows. The protagonist, Winston (named for Churchill, I would guess) is a member of the nation’s only party.

In 1984, the cancel culture is at its zenith. A person can be guilty of saying the wrong thing, thinking the wrong thing (“thoughtcrime”), and even making the wrong face (“facecrime”). When they catch criminals, they don’t just kill them. They torture them for a long time, then they release them, then they capture them again, then they make them give long “confessions” on TV, and then they execute them.

A person who commits a crime is libeled by the state after he is caught, and once he is gone, all mention of him in print is scrubbed, to the extent that it’s possible. Not only does he no longer exist; he never existed in the past. Such people are called “unpersons.”

It’s a lot like what we do today. If you say the wrong thing, even if you’re right (especially if you’re right), you are likely to have leftists try to fix it so whatever fame you have is rendered unprofitable to you. They try to discredit you retroactively. They try to take away your means of making a living.

Leftists appear to respect the concept of thoughtcrime, because they persecute people for not saying things. My friend Mike has a new granddaughter, and there is some question as to how much he will be allowed to interact with her because he refuses to repost leftist propaganda on his Facebook page, where his friends and business contacts would be disturbed by it. Famous people have been “canceled” because they failed to respond to perceived offenses with sufficient vitriol.

Leftists can’t quite make you an unperson, because it’s not possible to get rid of all past references to you. They would do it if they could.

People in 1984 live in constant terror. They’re not just afraid of the Thought Police. They’re afraid of their neighbors and their children. Anyone can denounce them, for any reason or no reason, starting the process of detention and torture.

It’s a lot like being a Republican on Twitter, while working for an employer that fears leftists.

It’s particularly notable that adults in 1984 fear children. Children are much more strongly indoctrinated than adults, and they are feared because they can report misbehavior. This has actually happened under leftist regimes, and Michelle Obama recruited kids to police adults when her husband was in power.

Leftists have a long history of butting into family relationships and trying to train other people’s children (“it takes a village”). If you can prevent parents from teaching their kids, and you can substitute your own dogma for time-honored wisdom, you can break the chain of tradition and create new generations of household spies and true believers. It may be hard to indoctrinate a middle-aged person who has read a few books, but get them while they’re young, and you have a shot. You can train them to be compliant adults, and you can also use them to terrorize their families, relieving you of the trouble and expense of monitoring them by other means.

Michelle Obama told kids to monitor their elders and correct them when they were perceived to be politically incorrect. No one should have to take correction from a child. It’s perverse. Children are foolish, and our job is to correct them.

When I was a kibbutz volunteer, I slept in a little building across from a dormitory called the Beit Zimmer. The kibbutz was founded by starry-eyed, Stalinist state-worshipers, and they believed kids needed to be raised by the village, not unreliable parents, so they took kids and kept them together in the Beit Zimmer. Eventually, they gave up on it, because the whole idea was unbearable. They got the notion from mainstream leftists. It was nothing new.

Americans are allowed to keep their kids at home, but we have teachers suspending kids for saying, correctly, that there are only two genders. We have kids being suspended for protected political speech. We have kids who are given bad grades for rejecting discredited socialist ideas.

Satan is all about the fatherless. God is our true father, and like a father, he teaches us and helps us not to believe stupid things. God gives us earthly fathers to assist with this. Satan has a long history of coming between children and parents so he can be a fake father and fill their hearts with excrement. This is why Jesus said some Jews who opposed him were sons of hell. They didn’t listen to God, who wanted to be their father. They listened to a supplanter.

Satan undermined Western fathers with toxic feminism. America is largely matriarchal now, and we suffer because of it. Deluded women are the main reason corrosive leftists are elected to powerful offices. It’s not surprising. The first known woman deposed her husband and God and voted for Satan.

Satan is also overempowering children. He wants a state where both women and children have great power over us, because he knows they will rule stupidly and advance his cause. Isaiah pointed out that it was a curse to have men of wisdom removed and to be ruled by women and children.

Orwell’s book was published in 1949, it was read all over the world, and it showed how awful it was for children to dominate adults. It showed how important it was for parents to lead and children to be kept in their place. The world did absolutely nothing to address the problem.

Rewriting history is basically the same thing as undermining fathers. It interferes with inheritance. A society that writes things down provides an inheritance of knowledge for future generations. When you get to erase the truth and write down lies, you take the inheritance away and replace it with poison.

In modern America, leftists work hard to record history incorrectly. For example, right now, they are all over the web and the airwaves, recording false information intended to convince people Kyle Rittenhouse is a criminal, as though it were an obvious and foregone conclusion no reasonable person could question. If it weren’t for people who write down the truth, the leftist lies would become accepted history in the future. Our descendants would be denied their inheritance of truth and fed a plate of arsenic and thorazine.

Leftists have even rewritten the Bible, our most precious written inheritance. They’ve taken out things they don’t like. They’ve even called God “she.” Ian McKellen, a homosexual, claims that when he stays in hotels, he takes Gideon Bibles and rips out the pages criticizing perversion. He thinks it’s cute. He grins when he talks about it.

Those pages are extremely important. They prevent those who take them to heart from indulging in practices God calls “abomination.” Those pages have kept people from being burned in hell.

Since I’ve been reading the book, I’ve learned something very interesting. Orwell was a socialist. I had always thought he hated socialism, because he wrote two books that undermined it. I was wrong. Orwell was deluded. He thought it was possible to have socialism without authoritarianism, even though he wrote Animal Farm.

It shows how a person who doesn’t know God can see part of the picture and still swallow enough poop to do him in.

I guess he was one of the many fools who think the only problem with socialism is that we don’t do it right. Orwell was fatherless, so he had no one to teach him the truth. He didn’t know his father in heaven.

Orwell was guilty of “doublethink,” which was the Party’s word for cognitive dissonance. He believed two contradictory things at once. He was for socialism but against authoritarianism, which is a natural consequence of socialism, as Orwell knew.

It’s sad to see how 1984 resembles modern America. We are becoming afraid of each other. We bend the knee to anyone we think might denounce us.

The social giants now perform the task of 1984’s Ministry of Truth, where texts were destroyed and rewritten. They delete the accounts and postings of people who disseminate important information and reasoned opinion, simply because the new ministries disagree.

Nigeria’s T.B. Joshua had one of the world’s most powerful ministries, and Youtube was packed with his videos. He cast out demons. He healed cripples on camera. He destroyed tumors. He taught people how to know God. Youtube removed all of his helpful, important videos because he cast demons of sexual perversion out of a grown man who asked him for much-needed help. Youtube decided a customary, Bible-sanctioned practice which is an important part of the world’s most popular religion was not fit for public consumption. Youtube also decided the West’s opinions about homosexuality were valid and the beliefs of Africans were not.

By removing Joshua’s channel, Youtube cut people off from part of their divine inheritance. They did Satan’s job. May God destroy their power and abase them for that. I plan to curse Youtube from time to time. I started today.

I don’t expect to learn anything new from the rest of the book. Every lesson it could be expected to teach me has been played out in real life already, starting before I was born.

Infantile Looting Sprees Begin

I don’t know why I ever look at the news. Seems like everything I predict happens. Maybe I should just ask myself about the future.

I jest. I draw obvious conclusions lots of other people draw, and sometimes I’m wrong. I’m right a lot, though. I think God tells me how the world works, in general terms. If you know how the world works, predictions aren’t that hard to make. Oddly, this makes the world a place which is simultaneously predictable and disappointing. That sounds like a paradox.

Riots broke out last night. I predicted it. So did the liberal governor of Wisconsin, though. He arranged for troops to be available to fight members of his own party because he knew they were immature and irrational. Says something about his opinion of his base, doesn’t it?

Oddly, the rioting didn’t hit Wisconsin, where Kyle Rittenhouse killed the rap-sheeted vigilantes who tried to lynch him. It hit Portland, Chicago, and San Francisco.

I have joked many times about leftists looking forward to news that displeases them and planning to rob stores they really like. Well, I joked, but I was mostly serious. Obviously, leftists who have no morals have learned that unpleasant news means free stuff, so, yes, they do plan their stealing before the news comes out. Last night they proved it by robbing Louis Vuitton, Neiman-Marcus, and a bunch of other expensive stores.

As always, the connection between stealing status symbols and making needed social change is unclear. A cynic–not me, of course–might say stealing, not change, is the objective.

The thief-activists were generally black, so this is another proud moment for those who dedicate their lives to improving the lot of black Americans. It makes the victimhood myth that much harder to push. It’s also an important day for white racists who want more justification for their militia-centric schemes for purifying America and turning it into a caucasian utopia. Similar ideas didn’t work out too well for the Germans and Austrians, but the great thing about being irrational is that you never have to give up on a bad plan. Ask Bernie Sanders.

It’s a great day for hate.

Of course, many of the people who are supposed to prop up our morals and our respect for civilization are doing the opposite. Mayors and governors are defecating on the verdict, and, by extension, the jury, the judge, the court system, and the Constitution (especially the Due Process Clause of the 5th Amendment).

Soulless opportunists like Andrew Cuomo, New York Governer Kathy Hochul, Joe Biden, Bill de Blasio, NYC Mayor-Elect Eric Adams, AOC, Jerry Nadler, and whoever writes tweets for the ACLU are criticizing the verdict and giving people the idea that it’s illegitimate and that justice was not done. In doing so, they are encouraging simpletons to riot. They’re telling them they were cheated.

It is particularly nauseating to see the ACLU chime in. Here is the ACLU’s statement of its purpose: “to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties that the Constitution and the laws of the United States guarantee everyone in this country.”

The 2nd Amendment is part of the Constitution, and it guarantees a civil right. Leftists hate it when you say that, but it’s true. The NRA is the nation’s biggest civil rights organization. The 5th Amendment right to Due Process is also a civil right. Kyle Rittenhouse shot or shot at 4 vigilantes who were trying to deprive him of the right to live, via lynching, without due process. Then he was freed as a result of due process, i.e., a trial. The ACLU is a farce. Seeing the ACLU oppose civil rights is like seeing the NAACP crusade to repeal the 13th Amendment and bring back slavery.

The upshot: the people who should be trying to explain the system to citizens and make them understand the trial was fair are, instead, blowing dog whistles to encourage them to burn down buildings and steal designer clothes.

It’s no different than Kristallnacht. “These people caused your problems, so go out at night and destroy what they have.” The Nazis wanted citizens to be a pack of pit bulls they could control, so they convinced them they were victims and Jews were their enemies. Leftists are doing the same thing to conservatives, corporations, successful people, Jews, Christians, whites, and Southerners.

The response to the verdict is legitimizing and stimulating violence.

What about the trial itself? Leftists are saying the verdict encourages white people to go out and shoot whoever they like, which is not true. The fact that Rittenhouse was charged in the first place, when all the evidence proved his assailants were the only criminals, discourages all Americans from exercising their right to self-defense.

Leftists have a real problem with self-defense, but unprovoked aggression (by the right kinds of people) doesn’t bother them at all. The aggression is the fault of the victims, because they run the system that oppresses the assailants. If the victims fight back, they’re racists, fascists, gun-lovers, Nazis, and whatever else leftists can think of to call them.

Leftists are crusading against self-defense because most violent criminals are leftists. That’s a fact Democrats don’t admit. Only a small percentage of violent prison inmates are rightists. Leftists would rather see innocent people hurt than guilty people incarcerated. They feel the sacrifice is worth it because incarceration, which is driven by bad behavior, not race, hits minorities disproportionately. They are against fairness for racist reasons.

The view seems to be that innocent victims are expendable training aids, like the rabbits that used to be used to train greyhounds to race. Trainers let them tear live rabbits to pieces so they would be eager to run after stuffed rabbits on dog tracks. If a troubled youth needs to shoot a few innocent people before he gets his life together, it’s worth it, because he’s important, and they’re just props in life’s big play.

The fact that Kyle Rittenhouse’s life was disrupted by trumped-up charges, while the criminals he shot were not even arrested, chills use of the right to self-defense.

I’m happy Rittenhouse went home, but the unjust charges and nearly-inevitable acquittal will bear bitter fruit. Many Americans are just too stupid, emotional, and racist to react correctly, admitting Rittenhouse was innocent and pushing for leftists to end their violence. Others are justifiably afraid they will be destroyed in court if they defend themselves elsewhere. Still others are more convinced than ever that conservative violence is the answer.

This whole string of events may be a huge shot in the arm for the spirit of murder that is taking over the world. If numbskulls on the left ramp up the rioting, the rest of us may be provoked to respond, and America may enter into a period of nationwide violence. I am watching to see whether the spirit sends his troops out tonight. If so, the game may be on.

I don’t know why I’m writing about this. Leftists are immune to reason, as are the relatively few violence-prone nuts on the right. Only the Holy Spirit can open people’s hearts and make them realize they’re being used by Satan.

My long-term prediction is extreme division, hatred, and destruction. All I ask God for is his help in removing his children before our suffering gets too intense or the provocation becomes too great for us to handle. I do not pray for him to fix America, because people, not God, are responsible for that job.

Correct Verdict puts Left’s Shaky Self-Control to the Test

My wife did me wrong today. We were on video chat, and she announced the Rittenhouse verdict to me instead of letting me read about it myself. Total spoiler.

The funny thing about it is that some American Democrat alerted her. He put a post on Facebook, which she had to visit briefly today. The post said the man was disgusted, and it said, “Disgusting, let the streets get him.”

I noted the irony of this incomprehensibly stupid remark. Rittenhouse had been on trial because he PREVENTED the streets from dealing with him. A bunch of apes in clothing tried to lynch him, and he exercised his civil rights and shot three of them.

It’s so strange, how the left tells not just lies, but filthy projections. They’re calling Rittenhouse a vigilante. In reality, he was attacked by vigilantes. A person who sees a shooter headed for the police to turn himself in, and who attacks that person instead of letting him get to the police is, by definition, a vigilante. A vigilante is a person with no authority who presumes to do the job of the police.

You can say Rittenhouse was a vigilante because he helped guard businesses and armed himself, but that would be wrong, because he did it with the consent and gratitude of the police. He was more like a member of a posse. You can’t be a vigilante if you have the approval of the police.

I learned something interesting this week. Rittenhouse didn’t carry an AR-15 because it was his weapon of choice. He carried it because he could not carry a pistol legally. This is what he says, and it makes sense, because he is right about the law. The idea that Rittenhouse showed up with a rifle because he wanted to shoot people has no basis.

Some people say he was foolish to show up in Kenosha that night. I think that’s true, but only because of his age. He may have violated the law by carrying at his age. The law is so badly written, the judge couldn’t make a determination of what it meant, but it’s not a good idea to assume a badly written law doesn’t apply to you. I don’t know if Rittenhouse knew about the law, but he should have.

Doesn’t mean he broke the law. No one knows whether he did or not. It’s not possible to know, because the law is badly drafted.

Was he foolish to show up if you take the gun law out of the equation? I’m not willing to say that. American soldiers considerably younger than 17 have died in combat while doing their jobs with courage and skill, and there is no reason to say no 17-year-old should help defend a city from savages. A 12-year-old joined the Navy and served admirably in World War Two.

Rittenhouse didn’t threaten anyone. He helped business owners. When he was attacked, he ran instead of standing his ground and shooting. He didn’t fire until a bona fide moron and incorrigible criminal grabbed his gun. He only fired until his assailant was down, he didn’t hit anyone else, and he returned to see if he could help.

He immediately tried to turn himself in, and when the lynch mob attacked, he didn’t shoot until he had to. He didn’t hit any innocent people. He stopped shooting the criminals he hit once they were neutralized. He didn’t empty his magazine, which is what many cops have done in similar circumstances.

Seems to me he proved he was capable of behaving responsibly. The assailants, on the other hand, behaved like enraged monkeys.

You can say he should have left when the late pervert Jojo Rosenbaum threatened to kill him and cut his heart out, but if that’s how it works, no one can guard a city with a firearm, because the minute a leftist berserker threatens you, you have to leave. Cities have to be guarded by civilians sometimes, as the Constitution’s “militia” remark shows. You can’t guard anything if your mere presence is considered to be an illegal threat.

If Rosenbaum had not threatened Rittenhouse, chased him, and grabbed his gun, Rosenbaum would still be alive, free to rape more kids. If Grosskreutz, Huber, and Maurice Freeland, the criminal who kicked Rittenhouse illegally, had let Rittenhouse turn himself in, he would not have pointed his weapon at any of them. Grosskreutz would still have more than 1.5 arms, and Huber would still be alive.

1. It’s legal for armed civilians like Rittenhouse to guard property while carrying guns, especially in concert with the police.

2. It’s illegal to threaten to kill people and mutilate their bodies, as the pervert Rosenbaum did.

3. It’s illegal to grab a person’s gun barrel, as the pervert Rosenbaum did.

4. It’s illegal to attack people who are running to the police to turn themselves in. Grosskreutz, Huber, and Freeland did this.

I keep calling Rosenbaum things like “pervert” and “rapist” because so many websites are calling him misnomers like “victim” and “protestor.” He was a filthy pervert who raped very young boys, he went to prison, and while he was there, he got in trouble over and over.

The Washington Post says Jojo was imprisoned for “sexual conduct with children.” No, he was a gay pedophile who molested boys ranging from 5 to 9 years of age, and his “conduct” included anal rape. If you were the father of one of the boys, and you saw Jojo violating your son’s anus, would you tell him to knock off the “sexual conduct”? Somebody at the Post apparently would.

The Bible uses blunt language. I will, too. Rape. Anus. Rape. Anus. It’s important to be graphic sometimes. To appreciate Jojo’s crimes, you need a mental picture, preferably accompanied by a young boy’s screams.

The world is better off without Jojo. It’s too bad he didn’t attack Rittenhouse before he raped all those kids. He should have been executed for the rapes instead of being released while young and fit. Truthfully, if there is any redemption to Rittenhouse’s actions, it is that Jojo Rosenbaum died as a result. If the shooting prevented even one more rape, then what Rittenhouse has gone through has been worth it.

Now we get to wait and see if riots materialize. I don’t know what’s happening tonight. Weekends are prime riot time, and tomorrow is Saturday, so I would think tomorrow night will be the test. My friend Mike thinks rioters are too sorry to loot in cold weather, but I think the allure of free TV’s and stereos may bring them out.

We also get to experience several years of unbelievably stupid and dishonest tweets, Facebook postings, and MSM libels about the victim. Defendant/Former governor Andrew Cuomo and NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio are among the offenders, and Joe Biden has said the verdict made him angry and concerned. Biden also says he will “stand by” the verdict, which is incomprehensible. He himself may not know what he meant. In any case, the usual suspects are busy fomenting unrest with asinine remarks their base is not smart enough to dismiss.

I feel great about Kyle’s acquittal. I felt as though I were on trial with him.

Unmasking the Truth

Sometimes I feel like I understand the pandemic better than most people, and other times it seems like I have missed the obvious.

Today I saw a report from England which suggests the vaccines have worked. Not “will work.” “Have worked.” What we’re seeing right now may be the best outcome possible until some new medicine comes along. If that’s true, the constant cries for more shots and fewer freedoms may be totally wrong, even according to THE SCIENCE.

A Youtuber from some foreign country or other has a channel called Merogenomics. He says he’s a scientist. For all I know, he could be posting from a trailer in Georgia. He may be a clever Trump-lover who makes up incredibly intricate, convincing data and speaks with a foreign accent in order to fool us. Maybe he spends the rest of his time sending love letters to Honey Boo-Boo.

Hey, it has happened before. Don’t forget FPSRussia.

The point is that I’m not vouching for this guy, but he posted shots of a government report from the UK, and that’s what impressed me.

The report says three things that catch my eye.

First, 98.1% of Britons or whatever they call themselves now have covid antibodies. About 20% have the kind that come from infection. Of course, vaccines provide antibodies, too.

Second, more vaccinated people than unvaccinated people are getting covid, and it’s not because this is inevitable when a huge percentage of the population is vaccinated. The vaccination rate is only around 70%. It appears that the vaccines aren’t doing much to prevent transmission. The Youtube guy says it’s conceivable that they actually make you more likely to get sick. Apparently, this is a known problem with vaccines.

Awesome. Yeah, I remember St. Anthony of Fauci warning me about that, over and over. Not.

Third, if you get the shot(s), you are substantially less likely to die, but not WAY less likely. It looks like you may be up to several times less likely, but that’s about it. That’s the best possible result, in the age groups the vaccine helps most. It’s not 1% versus 99%. They used to tell us it was impossible for a vaccinated person to get really sick or die.

You can probably draw some conclusions from all this.

One conclusion, from Mr. M., is that vaccine apartheid is pointless in high-vax countries covid has already hit hard, because they have reached antibody saturation. Everyone in the UK, apart from a few rare individuals, is about as well off as a vaccinated person when it comes to catching the disease. They can get sick, but they are less likely to die than zero-antibody people.

That conclusion seems a little weak. Apartheid doesn’t make much difference when it comes to transmission rates, but non-vaccinated people are considerably more likely to die if infected, even if they have natural immunity already. I think. Regardless of how it works, death numbers are very low. It sounds like typical vaccine apartheid is nearly useless for the masses, because transmission will still occur all the time, but hard core isolation measures would probably help high-risk people, and reinfected people who only have natural immunity are more likely to die than infected vaccinated people.

We can’t prevent the masses from getting sick, and getting sick is only a problem for certain people in easily identified groups. Seems like we should quit trying to keep the masses become covid-free, because it’s impossible and wouldn’t be very helpful even if it worked, because very few of them will get seriously ill. Like I said in early 2020, it looks like it makes more sense to isolate and work hard to vaccinate only those who are likely to die.

Here’s a conclusion from me: people have been stupid to talk as though the vaccines were going to get rid of the disease. That was never possible with these weak vaccines.

When you listen to politicians, journalists, and 85-IQ celebrities still wearing their disposable rehab bracelets, you hear a lot of strange things about the pandemic.

One is that draconian measures are only needed to “flatten the curve.” We can’t flatten the curve all that much, so people should quit saying that. It has been almost two years, and the evidence is clear. We get quiet periods and then huge peaks and then more quiet periods. We got bigger curves after the shots came out. We will never get a nice, smooth curve until we have real medicines. Can we please change the rhetoric now? Infection numbers in some high-vax countries are higher than ever, so the curve isn’t listening. Either flattening the curve is an unrealistic goal, or we would have had one hell of a curve without the shots.

Another is that the vaccines will turn covid into a relatively uncommon or eradicated illness. Forget that. No real scientist ever thought that would happen. Releasing the Kung Flu into the air was like blowing up a jar of talcum powder in a car with velour seats. You can never get rid of all of it.

The third dumb thing we hear is that we should be alarmed by high infection numbers. It makes it sound like the vaccines aren’t doing any good. What we should look at–I think–are hospitalization and death numbers. These are the only stats the shots had any hope of improving.

If you check these numbers, you will see that the enormous infection rates around the world aren’t always accompanied with skyrocketing hospitalizations and deaths. Not like they were in the past, anyway. Better treatments and the impact of vaccines appear to be reducing serious covid consequences considerably, at least in some countries. Unless the bug becomes more lethal, and barring supernatural intervention, we should expect this trend to continue as medicine catches up with it.

Some countries still have high death rates. Surely that must be due to bad treatment or higher concentrations of fat, sick, and/or old people.

If you’re fat, old, and/or sick, the good news isn’t as applicable to you, but it still matters to everyone else. Even if you die, it’s good that the vast majority of people are going to do well.

My wild guess, based on what I saw, is that we should start thinking of covid as something like athlete’s foot or the common cold. It’s unpleasant, but it’s not a serious threat to the vast majority of us, and it’s never going to go away completely, barring the invention of truly extraordinary new vaccines and treatments.

We should learn to live with it. We WILL learn to live with it, because it appears we have no choice. We should make the decision now instead of closing borders (between countries that are already heavily infected…genius) and, in the case of China, welding people’s front doors shut.

We can’t keep segregating and imprisoning people forever. I guess you could argue that we can do it until the new magical medicines come out. What if that’s 5 years away? Netflix and sweatpants won’t get you through. Deaths and serious consequences are dropping off to levels so low, it’s better to accept them than to continue abusing each other.

Probably. Maybe. The facts keep morphing.

If my understanding of the situation is right, the vaccines have already worked as well as possible. Whoopee. Mission accomplished. But many of us will still get sick. Booo. And some of us will die. Terrible, but unpreventable in free societies.

Perhaps we should declare the vaccines highly successful, after defining the mission correctly. If the mission is to turn a scary disease into a much less scary disease, they have probably done it.

I have never seen anyone define the objective clearly and correctly until today, on Youtube. How can that be? It’s not hard to figure out. Aren’t doctors supposed to be smart? I know politicians are often dumb, and they lie in order to increase their control over us, but they have doctors and pure scientists to tell them what to say, and even with the new efforts to destroy free speech, doctors and scientists can reach the public directly sometimes.

Let’s just admit the objective is to drastically reduce hospitalizations and deaths. If that’s the goal, it looks like we’re there. Let’s release the prisoners while we work on new shots and treatments.

I learned another interesting fact today. The Astrazeneca shots don’t use mRNA. They use viruses, like the Johnson & Johnson shot. I was glad to learn this, because the mRNA shots appear to be putting spike proteins inside people’s cell nuclei, which we were originally told was not possible.

Nobody touches my nuclei. That’s a rule I have.

I picked J&J because I was afraid the mRNA shots would end up messing with my exceptionally great DNA, and it now looks like I, in my ignorance, may have done the right thing. Scientists say the mRNA shots may interfere with DNA repair, and DNA repair prevents mutations, like the ones that cause cancer.

My wife and I had to get shots in order to get together. She got the Astrazeneca shot. We both prayed before getting injected, and neither of us felt that God objected. I thought she was getting mRNA shots, but I trusted her relationship with God, so I didn’t advise her to refuse them. Now I learn she got adenovirus shots, just like me. I’m glad to hear it.

I don’t capitalize the Z in Astrazeneca because I resent hipsters messing with the English language and ruining the rules of capitalization. I write things like Astrazeneca, Youtube, and Ipod. Deal with it, soy people.

Only DeSantis gets a pass. I love that guy.

Did God protect us from the evil DNA-destroying mRNA shots, did he decide to give us special protection regardless of which shots we got, because all the shots are bad, or are all the shots harmless, meaning he didn’t care which ones we got? I do not know. I know I’m not getting an mRNA shot unless an angel shows up with engraved orders delivered on a gold platter.

I have no way of knowing whether the adenovirus shots pose the same risks as the mRNA shots. Doesn’t sound like it, from what I’ve read.

Hope not.

On the whole, I would say vaccine apartheid is not justified in high-vax areas where infection numbers have already been high. Yes, a fair percentage of people will get infected, and some will die, but it appears the casualties will be low. A few deaths here and there, experienced by free adults who knew the risks, don’t justify treating us all like prison inmates.

My state lets people skydive, ride motorcycles without helmets, smoke cigarettes, and use scuba equipment. If we had mountains, it would probably allow the use of wingsuits. Traditionally, Americans have rejected the idea that we should protect everyone from dangerous activities simply because a few will get hurt, even if the public ends up paying the hospital bills.

If Uncle Sam will let me eat at Sonic while smoking unfiltered Pall Malls and drinking straight vodka from a tumbler, he should probably let me assume the very low risk of dying from covid, especially when he has pressured me into buying health insurance.

If this is true, then we should also knock off the mask nonsense. They have never worked well enough to matter, and they are unbelievably unpleasant to wear. If they’re not preventing severe cases in numbers that justify the imposition, then they should be scrapped.

I’m assuming the US has antibody numbers similar to the UK’s, of course. My state’s shot rate is about the same as England’s, so I don’t know why there would be a difference.

Mr. M. says we should have mass antibody screenings. The tests can tell whether your antibodies came from a shot or an infection. I think this is brilliant. Without screenings, how will we know whether we’re getting anywhere or what else we should do?

I am adjusting my thinking. I don’t care about infection numbers now, because infections aren’t going away, and by themselves, they are not a problem. I’ll just look at hospitalization and death numbers. They’re all that matter. To people who aren’t seriously ill, covid is like a cold or nothing. No one gets up and looks at common cold numbers every day. No one cares.

Austria, with a vax rate like Florida’s, is having a covid spike, and they just locked everyone down and issued a 100%-vaccination mandate. Nice. Germany has a similar vax rate and a similar policy. Are these actions justified?

Austria’s latest death number is 55 in one day. Their current hospitalization number is around 1800. Are these emergency numbers? Maybe they are. Austria’s population is 9 million, so it’s not that big, so numbers don’t have to be terribly high to be alarming. Germany, however, has about 8.5 times Austria’s population. The death rate is less than 4 time’s Austria’s, and they don’t appear to be publishing their hospitalization rate. Presumably, it would be in line with the death rate, making Germany’s problem much less severe.

Austria’s figures don’t look good, but if apartheid doesn’t help, as Mr. M. says, is it a good idea?

The kinds of lockdowns humane countries can impose don’t work. Combine that information with the likelihood that nearly all Austrians and Germans have antibodies and some protection, and it seems it may be pointless to keep pushing authoritarian measures. Maybe Austria will continue to have high numbers until covid runs its course again, and the only products of the measures will be to destroy morale and prosperity.

It’s impossible to measure prevented cases.

It’s too bad the African solution hasn’t been tried in advanced nations. As I have written before, it’s a combination of mass prayer, refusal to endorse sexual perversion, lax mask laws, extremely low vaccination rates, and heavy socialization without distancing. It has worked wonders in Zambia, Uganda, Tanzania, and other Christian countries where political leaders proclaimed national days of prayer. Covid barely exists in Christian Africa, which rejects America’s bigoted, God-provoking efforts to coerce acceptance of sinful sexual perversion by withholding aid.

Maybe the rainbow flag spreads coronavirus. Maybe that’s the problem. Are the flags made in China? Maybe they soak them in something.

I saw some leftist journalist trying to claim the reason Africa produces low infection numbers is that they don’t do much testing. Unfortunately, Africans themselves have Internet connections and phones, and they can tell you what’s really happening. My wife lives in a large African city, and she says coronavirus is not a factor in everyday life. If THE SCIENCE were right, Africa’s indifference toward covid measures should have resulted in a disastrous plague, but in Christian Africa, very few people are sick with covid.

It’s a shame how leftists make things up without hesitation.

If vaccines, lockdowns, distancing, and great treatment were the answers, Africa’s streets would be full of dead bodies. Instead, they have such low rates, they think of coronavirus as “the white disease.” If Africa had only done no better than the US, it would prove science-worshipers were totally wrong, because noncomplying countries are supposed to do much worse, but Africa has done way, way, WAY better, giving us more proof than anyone could ever want.

Also interesting: when Florida was experiencing a lot of infections and deaths, leftists never mentioned Florida’s old population. The average age here is 42, and we have the nation’s highest percentage of old people. The average age across the US is 38, and many states are a lot lower. The vaccines do not work well on older people, and really old people tend to live close together where they have to breathe the same air. Criminal defendant/former governor Cuomo could tell you how that works out.

Now blue states with no DeSantises are getting hammered, and suddenly, leftojournos have nothing to say about bad governors causing epidemics. What happened? It’s like Iraq. When Bush was in office, we had to put up with a daily counter, listing our military deaths as they occurred. Then Obama was elected, and suddenly, the counting stopped.

Repentance and prayer, on a global level, would get rid of coronavirus, but these things will never happen, because most human beings quietly believe God is like the pope or the queen of England: powerless yet hard to get rid of. Or nonexistent. Rejection of God, not masks and shots, is what will keep covid with us until the end of the tribulation.
