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.

Novel Plan to Defeat a Novel Virus

It’s a magnificent day. It’s overcast and cool, and the bugs are not doing well. Perfect day for fixing my pool system’s slow leak, which I resisted so stubbornly, I actually bought an automatic pool-filling device.

My theory is that only one kind of person likes hot, sunny days in Florida: people who never have to work outdoors. Once you’ve spent several hours in the burning sun, swatting mosquitoes that ignore Off, with your clothes so wet with sweat they’re actually less dry than they were when you took them out of the washer, you will appreciate overcast days with low temperatures.

I should be fixing the pool, but here I am, blogging. No surprise there.

This morning, I wondered about something. I wondered about a story that has been ignored by the press. I’m talking about Dennis Prager’s bout of covid.

When Prager caught the disease, leftojournos stampeded to their keyboards to let us know. Old, fat conservative radio hosts have died from covid after making nonconforming remarks about the disease and the world’s response, and here was another one, offering himself up on the altar of dissent. Do I think they hoped he would die? Yes, I do. It’s 2021. We need to be realistic about the thick fog of hatred in which we now live. I’m sure plenty of leftists are sad when anyone dies from coronavirus, but many would be happy to hear that overweight, post-70 Prager had croaked.

I use the word “croaked” because my wife thinks it’s hilarious. They don’t use it in Zambia. American slang sometimes seems very clever to people who haven’t heard it before.

Today I rooted around on the web, and I could not find any news about Prager. Even his own site is nearly useless. You would think his crew would have let people know what was happening, either to boast of his Trump-like triumph or to lament his severe illness or death and defend his decision.

Finally, in a blurb about an October 20 podcast, I saw that Prager had tested negative. That means he was only sick for a few days.

That’s funny. Ordinarily, it would not be funny if a person got mildly ill and recovered quickly, but these are weird times. When a conservative gets covid and gets over it in a hurry, it’s always funny, because you can’t help thinking of all the long faces at Berkeley and in cubicle farms at major news outlets.

Prager’s case was particularly exciting for leftists, because he said he had striven to catch the disease. He claimed natural immunity was better than vaccine immunity. Dubious. He set himself up to become a new left-wing poster boy as soon as he died. Then he ruined everything by bouncing back fast.

The same leftists who thought it was headline news when he got sick completely ignored his recovery. Try and find mention of it on the web.

I like Dennis Prager, and I think he has wonderful intentions. He is generally right. That being said, he is not a genius. He makes mistakes. It was not bright for him to get covid on purpose, and it appears that natural immunity, all by itself, is not as wonderful as he thinks.

Here is how I see it: he wanted to protect himself from covid by developing immunity, so…he got covid. I wouldn’t jump in front of a moving car if I thought it would prevent me from being run over in the future, would you? What if you don’t survive the first time?

The best strategy for preventing yourself from catching covid is to avoid catching covid. At least it seems that way to me.

Prager is not a skinny man, and he is no spring chicken, either. He’s in a high-risk group, at least according to medicine’s admittedly broad, nondiscerning standards. A rational appraisal of his chance of dying would have put him well above 1%. I wouldn’t take ANY elective course of action if it had a 1% or greater chance of causing me to…croak.

Of course, prior to infection, there was no way to know how Prager would fare, because crude statistics applied indiscriminately don’t tell us a lot about individuals.

Modern medicine is remarkable, because a lot of it is based on statistics, as it has to be. The remarkable thing is that doctors, who are scientists of a sort, commit the best-known sin of bad statisticians: they treat correlation as though it were causation.

My 13 readers are smart, so they don’t need me to explain, but I will do it because I feel like it.

An inordinate percentage of people who live in Florida wear white loafers with matching belts fall and break their hips. This is actually true. Conclusion: wearing white belts and shoes makes you more likely to have a hip fracture. This is not true. Most likely.

There is a high correlation between living in Florida, wearing tacky leather goods, and having hip fractures, but moving to Florida and dressing like an extra on The Golden Girls will not increase your chance of breaking your hip, because there is no causal relationship.

Doctors tell us weighing a lot for your height–having a high Body Mass Index or “BMI”–makes you a candidate for early death, simply because there is a correlation among millions of people studied. That’s poor logic. Lean, muscular people who have perfect diets and rigid weight and cardio routines often have higher BMI’s than flabby, sedentary people who eat Pop Tarts twice a day while smoking cigarettes.

Many people with great health have complained about doctors blindly adhering to the BMI myth. It’s bizarre. A doctor looking at an individual should consider things like diet, blood pressure, activity level, body type, tobacco use, and family history, but a lot of them just think about the number.

Doctors tell us the fat, old, and sick are more likely to die from covid. This is true of the group as a whole, but some of these people are naturally immune to it from birth (All or nearly all contagious diseases work that way.), others can only get asymptomatic cases, and still others can only have mild symptoms. Being fat and old (sorry for the blunt language, Mr. Prager) will not necessarily make you highly susceptible to covid problems.

Jeremy Clarkson is definitely fat and old, and in 2020, he said he reckoned he had smoked 375,000 cigarettes. He was afraid of covid. Then he got it, and it was like a mild cold. People in their 90’s have had asymptomatic cases. When doctors say fat, old, and sick people are more likely to die from covid, they’re making a very coarse projection that doesn’t allow for individual variation. Why? Because they have absolutely no solid way to predict that one fat, old, and sick person will die and another one will skate.

Doctors can’t predict whether this or that fat, sick, and/or old individual will have major problems with covid. All they can do is wave at the group and say they should all watch it. They don’t understand the means of causation. Correlation is all they have, so they rely on it because it’s a lot better than nothing. If the vast majority of people with problem covid are fat, old, and/or sick, and that’s all you know, it makes sense to caution all people in these three groups.

Where am I going with this? I’m not sure. I just find it interesting. Doctors don’t know how covid works, so they can’t give individuals solid information about how covid will affect them. I like pointing this out, because the medical/press/government combine seems to want to convince us that THE SCIENCE knows all.

Even though it’s true that doctors are still in the dark, fat, old, and/or sick people should avoid getting covid, because nearly all of the people who are at risk are fat, old, and/or sick. Doctors couldn’t predict how Prager would react, but neither could Prager, and the best information he had suggested he was taking a big chance.

I think he made a very obvious mistake that happened to work out well. He didn’t prove alternative treatments or even conventional treatments were reliable. Maybe the conventional treatment he received helped him, maybe the unconventional treatments he also received worked, or maybe he was never among the people who respond badly to covid. Maybe he was not treated at all. Maybe it was never possible for him to get very sick.

If he were a towering intellect, he would know this. I think he’s just pretty smart.

Wow, I just found a Slate article admitting Prager had recovered. A lonely little voice.

Prager is currently in trouble for saying this:

During the AIDS crisis, can you imagine if gay men and intravenous drug users, who were the vast majority of the people with AIDS, had they been pariahs the way the non-vaccinated are? But it would have been inconceivable.

Of course, leftists are saying AIDS target-group members WERE treated like pariahs.

So where is the truth? Somewhere in the middle.

I was around when the revolting, behavior-driven venereal disease known as AIDS hit the world. It quickly turned people into tumor-covered, diarrhea- and vomit-spewing, demented living skeletons. I remember how people reacted. I think it’s safe to say most people were skittish about being close to gays. We either didn’t know how hard it was to get AIDS, or we were reluctant to trust the medical establishment, which, to be honest, had been wrong about many, many important things in the past, just as it has been wrong about coronavirus.

People were afraid gays might sneeze near them or somehow get viruses on their hands from bodily fluids and then pass them on to others. It was not a completely unreasonable fear, given how little time science had spent studying the disease.

Another factor: the press dishonestly worked to convince us that AIDS was a preference-blind disease. They tried to make us think we were all in grave danger. Why? So we would support research to make the disease go away. We did support research, so it wasn’t necessary to resort to scare tactics, but journalists used them nonetheless.

Of course, AIDS has never been, and never will be, a heterosexual plague. It’s virtually impossible for a man to get it from a woman. Gay men get it because anuses were not designed for rough thrusting of large objects. Sodomy, an unnatural act, rips anal tissues, allowing AIDS viruses and other pathogens to enter and infect. The vast majority of women who get AIDS get it from closeted homosexual men, drug users, or intravenous drugs. Vaginas are less vulnerable than anuses, but they are still vulnerable. Look it up. Don’t believe me without checking. You’ll see it’s true.

Journalists did their best to make us panic, and a significant number of people succumbed to the propaganda.

There was also a problem with a gay mass murderer who used AIDS as a weapon. His name was David Acer, and he was a dentist. He deliberately infected patients, including a woman named Kimberly Bergalis, who later died. You can say he was never proven to be a serial killer, but that’s what he was. It wasn’t possible for six patients to be infected accidentally through dental treatment. Dental instruments are sterilized or thrown out after every use.

Some think Acer murdered his patients in order to make AIDS look like the heterosexual plague it would never be, in order to stir up concern. This is probably true. Unfortunately, defenders took up for him, and many people believed them. Once you accept the preposterous notion that Acer infected people accidentally, you have to accept another false notion: AIDS is spread easily through casual contact, even in medical facilities with trained staffs and good sterilization protocols. The people who thought they were helping gays by insisting a gay man was not a serial killer were actually contributing to irrational fear and overstigmatization.

To get back to the point, yes, homosexuals were socially ostracized to some degree, but it was never very bad, and the ostracism tapered off with time. And our federal and state governments never said they couldn’t go to restaurants or enter stores. It never tried to fire them from their jobs en masse. They weren’t prevented from publishing books and articles voicing nonconformist views about AIDS. Gays still do that. There is a well-known gay movement that claims AIDS doesn’t really exist; they say it’s really syphilis. No one censors their misinformation.

Gays were prevented from donating blood. Who could say that was unfair? In some areas, 20% of gay men died from AIDS, and early in the epidemic, blood recipients died horrible deaths because of tainted transfusions. The blood-donation ban was not unjust, at least at the start.

It wouldn’t have made much sense to enact government bans to keep gays out of stores and restaurants, because very few people have sex in grocery aisles or on restaurant tables. Prager should acknowledge that. When a person can get a disease from being in the same room with a sick person, it’s hard to fault a government for thinking restrictions are smart, at least until it knows what works and what doesn’t.

Prager’s analogy is not great, and neither are the mindless, victim-mentality rebuttals.

I just don’t think he’s brilliant. He would make better arguments and decisions if he were.

The biggest problem Prager has, though, is that he thinks reason will change America. That’s not true. Too many modern Americans are impervious to reason. Why? Because in order to be able to tell truth from untruth, you have to hear from the Holy Spirit. Generally, modern Americans reject the Holy Spirit, so they can believe anything, no matter how crazy. They can believe men have ovaries, for example.

It’s not enough to believe in God. Most Christians don’t know the Holy Spirit, so they believe stupid things. As what would probably be termed a conservative Jew, Prager is also subject to supernatural deception.

The Bible calls God a rock, and it doesn’t mean a little one you can pick up and throw. God is a vast, immovable rock. He is an anchor that can never be moved. The Holy Spirit connects us to the rock of God’s revelation. Most American Christians think homosexuality and fornication are not sins, even though the Bible clearly states the opposite. Why? No anchor.

In the Bible, sand–tiny rocks–represents the thoughts and ideas of beings that are not connected. When grains of sand are connected, they become rock. They become strong. You can build a house on rock and not worry about it sinking or falling over. When they’re not connected, the wind and rain move them around.

The Bible says people who are not filled with the Holy Spirit have hearts of stone. The hearts of all such people are like a big pile of sand. The Bible says God takes away our hearts of stone and gives us hearts of flesh. It says God we are to write God’s laws on the tablets of our hearts. It says we are letters from Christ, written with the Spirit of Holiness on tablets of human hearts.

If the tablets of your heart are inscribed with God’s laws by the Holy Spirit, you are part of the rock, even though you are physically distant from other believers. God always tells everyone the same things. He gives us the same beliefs, desires, and motivations.

The unconnected, incohesive stone hearts of all the world’s unimproved people are like grains of sand.

People who rely on reason above God are hopeless.

Prager has said this:

My philosophy of life is easily summarized: God wants us to be good. Period. God without goodness is fanaticism, and goodness without God will not long endure. Everything I and PragerU do emanates from belief in the importance of being a good person.

Here’s the problem: Prager, not God, decides what is good. He seems to assume everyone knows what is good. We don’t. Sometimes a slap in the face is a gift, and a soft kiss can be a curse.

A psalm says, “Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a blessing. And let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil which shall not break my head.” It says that if God doesn’t chastise us, we are bastards and not sons.

Sometimes God thought it was good for the Hebrews to kill old people and children. God thought it was good to say sodomy was an abomination and that a person who commits sexual sin sins against his own body. God thought it was good for Paul to refrain from spreading the gospel in Asia, where people desperately needed to hear it.

What seems good to us is not always good. God always knows better.

In many places, God says wicked, cursed people did “what was good in their own eyes.” Not, “They chose to do what they thought was evil.”

People on Earth often fight because of evil motivations they think are good and even holy. Often, people who think they are doing right will get together to kill each other. The Revelation says people who martyr Christians will think they’re pleasing God.

Prager does not hear from the Holy Spirit. If he did, he would be telling other people to get to know him instead of spinning his wheels with useless debates that only serve to make people who disagree with him angry.

My dad hated God and Christianity, and I told him he was wrong for over 30 years. It never did any good, and it didn’t matter that I had evidence which my dad had personally witnessed. One day toward the end of his life, I put a Derek Prince video on and shut my mouth. My dad seemed to fall into a trance. Without warning, he exclaimed, “I’m on the verge!” I thought he meant he was dying. He meant he was willing to give himself to God completely. He said, “I had reservations! They’re gone!”

Decades of arguments and testimony accomplished nothing at all, but when the Holy Spirit showed up and showed my dad the truth, instantly, we were in agreement. My dad received eternal life, and he died in peace.

This is how God wanted us to change the world. He wants us to sow a few seeds, step back, and let the Holy Spirit bring the increase. Debate comes from the enemy.

Jesus said he came to bring division. He didn’t mean division among Christians. He meant division between his children and unbelievers.

Prager’s gospel, like every other ungrounded gospel, is the gospel of Satan. No other way to put it. His intentions are irrelevant. If the Holy Spirit isn’t your guide, Satan is. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a Jew, Hindu, Wiccan, atheist, Jehovah’s Witness, or Baptist. There is only one truth, and every other doctrine is sin.

The other day, my wife had a dream in which she was cooking for people. She prepared meat, but it wasn’t good. The problem: no salt.

In the Bible, meat represents the difficult words of God; the things people don’t want to hear and which may be impossible to understand without divine help. Salt is corrosive, with a sharp flavor. It is used to preserve meat, which would otherwise rot.

Jesus called us the salt of the earth. A long time ago, God told me, “We are the salt of the earth, not the sugar.” I saw someone else saw the same thing a while back; God tells all his children the same things. We can’t make all our words sweet. We have to put salt in them. We have to be willing to offend.

The Bible says it’s bad to cause others to offend, but when Jesus said that, he was talking about people who said things that were not true. Jesus offended people right and left. Why do you think he was crucified? Because he was nice?

Time is short. It’s as though we were all on a sinking ship. When a ship goes down, you don’t have time to be polite. You don’t send people engraved invitations to abandon ship and board lifeboats. You say things like, “If your behind isn’t in that lifeboat in 10 seconds, you’re going to die.”

Jesus said that when he returned, he wanted to find people serving meat in his house. He didn’t mean he wanted to see people eating roast beef at church. He meant he wanted to see people teaching others deep truths with plenty of salt. The rest will be left behind.

Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

Joel Osteen is probably the king of the American sugar merchants. I’m not sure he even adds milk. Is he “good” by Prager’s definition? I don’t know, but he’s nice. To everyone except the Holy Spirit, in whose face he slams the door.

I’m glad Prager is okay, and I hope he stops wasting his time.

Vaccine Apartheid Approaches

I get so tired of being right. About bad developments, I mean.

Historically, there has always been a down side to being a prophet, whether real or fictional. Greek fabulists created prophets who were blind, and another punishment was that people didn’t believe them. Real prophets only come from the Jewish God. They suffer with people who don’t believe them, and they are also very unpopular; so much so that human beings do things like putting them in prison, sawing them in half, and crucifying them.

I am not a prophet, but God tells his children a lot of things even if they are not prophets, and, of course, people don’t believe them, and they become unpopular. I have these problems, and I probably shouldn’t be too critical when people don’t believe me, because I, myself, am often surprised when I turn out to be right.

Anyway, it sure looks like we are headed for a future of compulsory periodic coronavirus shots coupled with restrictions that will ultimately result in dissidents being economically and socially ruined. It looks like vaccine passes will get more and more draconian and widespread, and it won’t be a big shock if there is a move to establish a global pass. I’m sure it’s already underway, now that I think about it. It’s too obvious not to have happened.

Googling–Duckduckgoing, actually–I see that people are already discussing a “global” standard for vaccine passes. Right again. It was not a hard guess to make, though. It was about as hard as guessing gas prices would go up after Biden was elected.

St. Anthony of Fauci has announced that we are “overthinking” the booster decision, trying to decide who should get it and who should not. He says…wait for the surprise…we should all get it. The British are already doing third shots. I saw a funny headline the other day. Wish I could remember where I found it. Something about three-shot people turning on two-shot people. That will actually happen, even though the person who wrote it was kidding.

Maybe one really is the loneliest number.

I got my shot, so I used to be fully vaccinated. Now I’m not. Until I get my second shot, I will be no better than Joe Rogan or Alex Jones. A coronavirus untouchable. Again.

I just want to reiterate that I never wear a mask, I never ran out of toilet paper, and whenever I want to, I can walk into my bank armed with a loaded pistol and a sheath knife. God bless rural Florida and Ron DeSantis.

To make things more offensive, I never recycle anything other than big batteries and motor oil, I eat as much beef as humanly possible, and I deliberately bought the world’s most eco-hostile washing machine. It runs on high-sulfur coal.

Not really.

I’m very self-indulgent, so I’ll go ahead and digress. My best friend Mike, the poor soul, “lives” near Boston. Is that living? He’s in New Hampshire. He speaks in tongues and likes guns. He is divorced, and he would like to remarry. There are virtually no sane women anywhere near him, and because he has to drive in and out of Massachusetts a lot, he can’t arm himself except at home. On top of that, he loves Ocala (where I live), he loves barbecue, he loves horses (Ocala’s reason for existing), and he can’t stand the socialist colonial-organism state.

I have been telling him he needs to leave the Northeast. The women alone are sufficient reason. I went to Columbia, and it’s a wonder I didn’t turn gay. The women, or “gals,” as Rush Limbaugh used to say, were horrible. My dad got a look at them, and he referred to them as “the Barnard bush hogs.” He wasn’t a nice Christian like me.

The other day, Mike shocked me by calling and saying he was about ready to pull the trigger. That’s a metaphor, in case any leftists are reading this. He is ready to move down here and put up a house.

This would mean he would have to stay with me for a while, which is not good news for my toilet seats. On or shortly after two of his visits, two different seats mysteriously broke. He claims he’s innocent, but I’m not listening. The fact that one seat was made with carbon steel screws that rusted through doesn’t faze me.

Now I know what kind of jobs lower-tier engineering students get.

I told Rhodah about it, and she practically insisted I invited Mike to stay here. Aren’t wives supposed to hate having their husbands’ friends around? If she is here, she even plans to clean up after him. If she does that, he may never leave.

Toilet seat issues aside, it would be a lot of fun. It would be like the elderly version of Step Brothers.

I saw another article that said scientists now claim that covid vaccines lose their effectiveness in everyone, regardless of age, even after two magical shots. Isn’t that special? If true, it means death-fearing godless people have new ammunition to drive their mandatory-vaccination push. One more stone to throw at people who don’t want to be experimental pincushions. It also provides more motivation for death-fearers to comply with government commands.

Let’s see. Shots that have to be administered several times each year, which you can’t get without government involvement. Vaccine passes without which your abilities to participate in commerce and thrive financially will be taken away. Terrified state-worshiping masses who fear death and don’t believe in heaven. Add it all up, and you get vaccine apartheid and a perfect social storm which will make Christians more hated even than they are today.

We are already seen as superstitious savages whose disproven beliefs are the only things that stand between informed, righteous statists and their long-awaited gay-friendly, zero-covid greentopia. The combine has decided Christianity is wrong; that’s the official position. They don’t tolerate us because they’re open-minded. They have concluded, without evidence, that Jesus does not exist and that we are no better than a cargo cult.

Vaccines are not the mark of the beast, but we may soon see a worldwide move to create a global vaccine pass which is the mark. Christians who are really Christians will not accept it. The Bible says people who take the mark go to hell. Covid and poverty are much better than hell, especially when death is followed by heaven.

The shots are not working. It amazes even me, a right-wing kook, but it’s true. They just do not work. England and Germany are doing a lot worse than they did with no vaccines at all. Amusingly, the Prime Minister of England, Boris Johnson, is blaming the continent, saying that’s where England’s new wave came from. It’s just like syphilis; when it arrived from the Americas, the Italians called it the French Disease, and the French called it the Italian Disease. It was actually the American Disease, just like covid is the Chinese Disease, the Kung Flu, the Hong Kong Fluey, or, perhaps more accurately, the Fauci/Wuhan Lab-Created Disease.

No, Boris. England is a carrier, not a victim. Germany is in big trouble, England is in big trouble, and France, which is between Germany and England, is not nearly as bad. If the continent were England’s problem, England would have been hit after France. The French will probably get sicker, too, and that will be largely because of travel between France and England.

Travelers between England and France are free to do their thing, as long as they present…guess what? Proof of vaccination. Which does not work.

Again, when I say it doesn’t work, I mean it doesn’t work well, not that it doesn’t work at all.

Look, last year, covid had all sorts of time to infect Europeans, and vaccines arrived late in the year, so exposure was pretty bad. Now a big percentage of people are vaccinated, and infection numbers in some large countries are much worse than they were last year. The vaccines don’t work well. It’s not my opinion. It’s a fact.

I wonder why syphilis got its start in South America. Right now, Latin American males are unusually likely to have sex with animals. It’s actually considered normal for young men in some countries. Maybe it has always been that way.

Jeremy Clarkson accidentally filmed a man sodomizing a donkey in South America, and when he asked the locals about it, they grinned and told him it was normal. They said a donkey is a man’s first girlfriend. A Cuban boxer once told me his dad and his dad’s friends raped pigs regularly in Cuba. Some Spanish-speaking nations are known for live acts featuring women and animals. Maybe the practice was handed down from Indians. Who knows what you could catch?

The world is a fascinating place, and I don’t mean that in a good way.

What’s happening is this: people who fear death are running to the government and pushing for coercive laws in a relatively ineffective effort to prevent them from getting a disease that has a low fatality rate except in the fat, the old, and the sick. Christians are not as afraid of death, because we seriously believe we will go to heaven, and we are very afraid of hell, which is where we will go if we take the mark of the beast. Death-fearers see us as a tremendous threat which is likely to kill them young, and that’s wrong. They also see covid as much worse than it is and anti-covid measures as much better than they are.

They’re all going to die. No one lives forever in a flesh body. They just don’t want to think about it right now. They want to make death seem far away, like a star that takes a thousand years to reach in a spaceship. Our refusal to panic, coupled with the small increase in covid that our resistance may produce, is driving them mad with anger.

If you’re 30, you probably have 50 years left. If you’re 60, you probably have 20 years left. You will die, and it’s not that far off. I’m probably as close to death as I am to the age of 30. If you’re 50, think how recent your 10th birthday seems. Your death is probably closer.

It’s going to happen. Science can’t help you. Best to man up and get ready instead of panicking and disgracing yourself.

The other day, I saw a Russell Brand video. I used to think he was an utter idiot and Hollywood conformist who never had an original or intelligent thought. Now the left, his natural allies, have turned on him. They’re calling him a right-wing conspiracy nut.

He has a very popular Youtube and Rumble channel where he goes after government BS. He has little confidence in the vaccines. He put up a video collage of news show snippets, showing how the networks put Pfizer ads up over the talking heads. Pfizer is a gigantic contributor to networks who report on…Pfizer.

It’s kind of funny to watch Brand, because he is constantly expressing shock over the dishonesty in government and journalism. He seems to think he’s exposing something we didn’t know about. The naivete is astonishing. It’s like a stubborn mental illness.

Human beings lie! Governments only care about power! The mainstream media withholds the truth and knowingly publishes falsehoods! When did this start happening? Why was I not informed?!

His followers seem to think he’s a genius. That’s even more amazing than his own innocent conceit.

Didn’t Fox News start broadcasting 26 years ago? Russell Brand is Columbus, and Rupert Murdoch is the Vikings.

I think I’ll go outside and discover Florida.

Unfortunately, Brand is not a Christian, and he’s probably not conservative. He says he’s apolitical, which is facially absurd. He seems to think Democrats and Republicans are about the same, which makes him sound like a libertarian. If he still smokes weed, he probably is a libertarian. They are obsessed with dope. It’s the craziest thing. If dope didn’t exist, they would all be Republicans.

Brand thinks we can all hold hands, sing “Here Comes the Sun,” hold The Man accountable, and produce a society in which all the puppies and kitties sleep safe in the sunshine in a world free of human frailties.

He thinks man can solve our problems.

WHO GOT US INTO THIS MESS? Hello?

Brand has great intentions, and he’s funny, but he has zero understanding of human nature. Understanding human nature is one of the main things that makes people conservative. Capitalism harnesses human nature and gets the best possible results. Leftism requires human nature to go away on command. “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs. Now, to make this work, humanity will just have to stop being selfish, as of, ready for it? Now. Glad that’s fixed.”

There was a point to all this rambling, and here it is: Brand is upset because Jeff Bezos and some other billionaires are trying to get rid of death!

What a terrible idea that is.

Brand thinks it’s creepy and that it will lead to a two-class society of oppressed mortals and dominant immortals who are deformed by medical science in order to prevent them from dying.

He’s missing the really big points.

First of all, if people don’t die, where are we supposed to put them? Where are they supposed to get their food? Where will we put their poop? In a world where people don’t die, the population will quickly become so great life on Earth will be even less worth living than it is now.

If we become immortal while we’re still stuck here, the human population will increase, but the available farm land won’t, and the oceans won’t start producing more fish. Sounds like a recipe for Soylent Green.

Second, what are you supposed to do on this disappointing planet for eternity? Think how bored you would get after a couple of hundred years. You would have read every book and seen every movie. You would have gone through your bucket list 15 times. You would generally know what people were going to say or do before it happened. The annoying faults of other human beings would have worn you down to the bone. What good is all that?

Third, do you really want to be Jeff Bezos for eternity? A short, bald, homely guy with a gut? A man who isn’t especially smart or talented? A man whose biggest accomplishment was to luck out with one really good retailing model? If Bezos were truly exceptional, he would have done other things, the way Elon Musk has.

If people live forever, what will happen when couples marry and want to have kids? We’ll have to ban reproduction. Maybe we’ll look to China for advice on forced sterilization and abortion.

Some people will die even if we put an end to aging. They’ll need to be replaced when our numbers get low enough. Who gets to have babies? Who makes the decision? Will we end up with an Earth where every baby looks like a bald Harry Shearer, because everyone was created using Bezos semen? There go professional sports.

Remember the movie scene where Dr. Strangelove brainstormed about preserving humanity by putting government-elite males in mineshafts stock with 10 fertile whores per man? The Bezos project brings it to mind.

It’s amazing how crazy you get when you fear death and believe it’s a bad thing.

I don’t have Bezos’ problem. I look forward to the next stage of life, which is what the afterlife is. I know it’s a release from prison, not obliteration or pain.

When I die, I won’t have to take my reading glasses with me. I will never have to diet or exercise again. I will never have another argument. I will never feel pain or be sick again. I’ll never pay another bill. I’ll never care about what the United States government or other people want to do to me. I’ll know Jesus personally, and he’s like a supernova of love and help. You want to stay on Earth forever? Be my guest. I want to be raptured, the sooner the better.

My understanding is that raptured people return to Earth in the flesh after the tribulation, but even if we’re not in heaven, it will be an Earth free of curses, evil spirits, and hostile non-Christians. Jesus will be here in the flesh, governing the world. Things will go well all the time. Bugs won’t bite, predation won’t exist, and every creature will get along with every other creature. Then, eventually, we will die and become spirits in heaven.

Call me crazy, but it sounds better than being injected with monkey stem cells or whatever, so I can stay here and keep suffering.

During some of our wars, GI’s hoped for wounds that were just bad enough to get them sent home. They were called “million-dollar wounds.” That’s death, the rapture, for you. A ticket home from the war zone. I don’t want to lose that.

I don’t expect life-extension research to go anywhere. THE SCIENCE is very primitive right now, and I believe the rapture is nearly here, so whatever embarrassingly bad work has been done when Jesus comes for us will not have time to improve much.

God’s way is always a lot simpler than Man’s Rube Goldberg, cobbled-together workarounds, and ordinarily, people don’t want to extend bad experiences.

Now that I’ve said my piece, let’s all go back to watching the Rittenhouse case and wondering whether there will be riots or merely a gigantic, brazen miscarriage of justice.

One thing is for sure: if Rittenhouse rioters destroy Kenosha, they will be treated much more kindly than the unarmed goofballs who scared Congress in January.

You Made Them do This

Yesterday, I got smacked in the face with another reminder that civilization is dissolving.

As you may know, shoplifting is, for all practical purposes, legal in San Francisco. You can literally walk into a store, take a garbage bag out of a box on the shelf, fill it with merchandise of your choosing, and stroll past the security guard with your middle finger raised high. And because San Francisco permits public nudity, you can do all this naked. It’s not clear what purpose the guards serve now. Perhaps they’re reverse-greeters. Instead of greeting you when you walk in (which is annoying) they can wish you and your stolen goods a nice day as you leave.

New York is just about as bad. The Wormy Apple has new bail laws which allow most arrested thieves to walk free after booking. No bail required. New York is also choosing not to prosecute lots of cases.

I believe the theory is that because bail laws are harder on minorities and the poor than the rest of us, they’re inherently racist and classist.

It used to be that our legislators understood that not all laws that hit minorities harder were inherently racist. If you pass a city ordinance banning an antisocial act, and it turns out more Polynesians than whites are arrested as a result, because they are more likely to perform the act, it doesn’t necessarily mean the law is racist. It may be a fair, race-neutral law which hits Polynesians harder because they choose to violate it more often. If a particular group decides to break the law more often, it’s their hard luck if they are arrested more often. They deserve it, so it’s good they’re being arrested.

These things are obvious.

The truth, which always offends people, is that blacks and Hispanics commit way, way more crime than everyone else, so it’s good that they have to post bail more often. It would be unfair if they did not, because it would mean other groups were being treated more harshly. The original bail laws were not written with minorities in mind, with racist intent. They were written to protect us from criminals of all varieties. If you choose to be a criminal, you opt into the bail system, so instead of making asinine claims of racism, you should shut your mouth and put up the cash.

In America, over 50% of our homicides are committed by black people, so all laws involving murder hit black people disproportionately. If laws that hit black people disproportionately are racist, then all laws aimed at preventing and punishing murder are racist. We definitely need those laws, so does this mean we want racist laws and a racist system? Uh, no.

As for the poor, I suppose bail should be set so people of means have to pay more. Otherwise, many would turn potential prison terms into painless fines. They would post bail and run off. For all I know, courts already consider the wealth of defendants. I am not a criminal lawyer, and Google searching doesn’t turn up much information on the subject.

There is a limit to what government should do for the poor, though. Trying to make life “fair” to the poor, meaning similar outcomes in every situation, is stupid, futile, and somewhat unfair. The whole point of working to accumulate wealth is to make your life easier. It’s supposed to do that. It’s okay. It’s good. If wealthy people didn’t have better lives, we would all beg or work at McDonald’s, and nothing would ever get done.

To this day, we are surrounded by things Thomas Edison invented, or which followed from his inventions. He worked like a dog. Did he do it for social credit? Did he do it out of patriotism or a desire to bring about justice? Of course not. Edison was a ruthless capitalist, like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. He adored money. Rich people do more for the world than poor people, because the world gives them more back.

If you do more for society than another person, it would be unfair for government to step in, take money from people like you, and use it to buy that person things you earned. Of course, this is what our socialist government does all the time. It’s amazing that anyone doesn’t think America is socialist.

Leftists say people who are indigent shouldn’t have to pay anything. That may make sense for people who rack up parking tickets or solicit prostitutes, but thieves need to be confined in order to protect society, so my feeling is that if you’re too poor to pay the bail, you’re too poor to do the crime. If you commit a crime knowing you can’t make bail, your pretrial detention is your own fault.

What about the presumption of innocence? If it was a factor in setting bail, no one would be jailed before trial. You may be presumed innocent for purposes of the trial, but as for arrest, booking, and detention, you’re guilty until proven innocent. If that sounds bad to you, picture Jeffrey Dahmer sitting at home awaiting trial, chewing on a fried human buttock and admiring a jar containing alcohol and your son’s severed genitals.

Nearly all arrestees are guilty, so don’t feel too bad.

Anyway, we need cash bail, pretrial detention, and incarceration to protect the innocent and prevent society from breaking down. But leftists are under supernatural delusion, so they are trying to do away with these things. They are trying to wokify us from the sleep of sanity.

I was talking to my charming bride the other day, and I talked about the new legal shoplifting, and I said the next thing to expect was store closures, followed by complaints that the store owners were racists. You know how it works. If a chain won’t operate in bad neighborhoods, leftist nuts say they’re racist and greedy. Never mind that it’s not possible to turn a profit or break even when thieves run amok in your business.

Oddly, if they DO put stores in minority neighborhoods, it’s gentrification and an attack on minority-owned businesses, so there is no way to win.

Yesterday, my prediction came true. Walgreen’s closed a San Francisco store because looters made it impossible to keep it going, and guess what locals said? They complained that Walgreen’s only cared about money. They said they had relied on the store to feed their families. One person said “reform” was needed, but that a person who needed food to feed her children should do what she had to do, meaning steal.

What was notably absent in the story? Remarks like, “I can’t believe how much people here steal. It’s destroying the neighborhood. We need to shame thieves and march against crime. We need prosecutions and jail time. Men need to stop impregnating multiple unmarried women and leaving them on their own to raise criminals.”

What was missing was accountability, not to mention honesty.

I read it, and I thought, “Go ahead and starve. You did this to yourselves, and you haven’t learned a thing.”

In Joe Biden’s America, a kid who tries to protect businesses from rioters is a dangerous vigilante, actual vigilantes who try to lynch him in the street are martyrs and heroes, and drugstore chains exist to give criminals free beer, junk food, and things they can sell on street corners.

In America, we now have prosecutors who have time and resources to railroad innocent people who kill in clear-cut, classic, well-documented cases of self-defense, but we can’t find anyone to go after imbeciles who go into stores and fill up duffel bags.

I wonder what a typical shoplifter selling Walgreen’s merchandise would do if someone tried to steal it. I assume he would stand by and watch, wishing them godspeed and thanking them for letting him play a part in fighting income inequality. I’m sure he wouldn’t beat him bloody or threaten him with a weapon.

Is it a crime to steal from a thief? I don’t even know. Maybe it’s receipt of stolen goods. If you steal my garbage, it’s not theft, even if it’s in my possession, because it’s not my property. If that’s true, can it be theft if you steal 90 boxes of stolen Depends from a Social Justice Warrior who ripped off a CVS?

My wife Rhodah says shoplifting is not yet legal in poor, backward Zambia. She says that if you shoplift in Zambia, the store owners grab you, call the police, and give you a coat of spray paint to humiliate you. And they don’t get charged with anything.

It’s not the height of due process, but it shows that not every nation is as insane as America’s Blue Belt. Zambia’s approach is much healthier than letting cretins make commerce impossible.

“Walgreen’s fed my family.” What a stupid, despicable, evil thing to say to the management of Walgreen’s. You should say it to the thieves your community shelters and pays. They caused the problem. Walgreen’s did everything right. Let’s be honest. National chains do more than they have to. They open stores in bad neighborhoods, knowing they won’t do well, just to keep SJW’s quiet. Your local Dollar General may really be a charity.

The article made me very sad. I felt like crying. I’m not a weepy person, so I can’t claim I actually cried, but I felt very bad. The apocalypse is really here, and there are millions of Americans who can’t be saved because they are just too trashy and proud.

I saw something else that made me certain the end was upon us. Reddit now has a disgusting new area, and the large corporations Buzzfeed and Yahoo are promoting it. It’s called “byebyejob.”

The idea is that someone gets fired, usually for being unwokenated, and members of the group pounce on him or her, celebrating personal destruction with sick and often obscene comments. Most of the entries are about people who got in trouble for things like not allowing the government or their employers to rape them with needles. “My body, my choice,” is not what it used to be. Of course, this is the Internet, so the comments are vicious, baseless, biased, and ignorant.

They even went after Terry Gilliam, a leftist if there ever was one; a proud draft dodger who makes depressing nihilist movies. He complained about MeToo’s excesses and joked about people being offended when he said he was a “black lesbian in transition.” Now he’s officially unbewokened and banished. His Old Vic production of a Sondheim musical is canceled.

Hateful extremists posting stuff like this are not new, but it’s discouraging to see major Internet players endorsing it. It shows that only one side is allowed to speak now. Words, not guns and bombs, control the world, so when you can’t speak, you are not merely gagged, but chained.

I was thinking about revival yesterday, and I believe I had a revelation. I had decided to quit praying for revival, because I thought America was too far gone, but I wondered if I had made the right decision. Then I thought about it. God poured the Holy Spirit out on America about 120 years ago, and we have seen all sorts of healings, miracles, and prophecy. He has given us every chance. The whole time, people have been praying for revival, but America has turned on God instead.

I realized praying for revival was dumb. Revival doesn’t depend on what God does. It depends on what we do with our free will. How many hundreds of millions of revival prayers has God heard in the last century? There is nothing wrong with the prayers or God. The problem is that we’re asking him to do humanity’s job.

If America were going to have revival, we would have already had it. We don’t want it.

When the Hebrews worshiped the golden calf, and God told Moses he would destroy them and raise a new race up from him, Moses interceded for them. Shouldn’t I be as patient as Moses, especially since I used to be God’s enemy? Is it right for me to jump in the lifeboat and quit pulling others in? Thing is, I have been patient. Nearly all of us have.

Also important: God punished the Hebrews who rebelled. He killed lots of them, and he made the whole group wander in the sand for 40 years until nearly all the older people died. Moses, for all his patience and love, didn’t save them from extreme punishment which lasted decades.

The best thing is to pray for God to conserve the people who are saved and to prevent them from being lost before the rapture. I pray for this, and I ask him to come as soon as possible. This place is absolutely crazy. Americans think men menstruate, women have penises, common sense laws are racist, and the police are more dangerous than the civilians who commit nearly all murders. I’m done praying for America. Done, done, done. Americans have had one break after another, and we haven’t learned a thing. Let America destroy itself. I can’t do anything about it. Better to pray for the family of God.

Bidentube Uses the Ratchet Principle to Guarantee Warm Receptions

“FJB” is really “Let’s go, Brandon,” the networks have muted ballgame crowds to hide anti-Biden chants, and now, officially, nobody dislikes Joe Biden’s videos.

Joe Biden’s White House videos attracted huge dislike/like ratios, so guess what Youtube did? They decided to disable the dislike count for ALL videos. Biden, AKA Mr. Transparency, had already implemented a policy of disabling comments, so now there is no way to do anything but like a Biden video.

Youtube claims it decided to get rid of the dislike count for all videos because they were worried small creators would get their feelings hurt. Hmm. Isn’t this the same company that deletes channels without warning or explanation? Same company that demonetizes videos and cripples conservative creators financially? I believe it is, so I don’t believe the official explanation. To Youtube twerps who make harsh decisions, creator tears are sweeter than Dom Perignon.

They want to protect Biden so badly, they’re willing to mess with the entire system and even give up dislikes on conservative videos in order to hide their bias.

I learned about this when I ran into a video by Mark Dice. He’s a political commentator. I’ll post it here. I don’t recommend watching this sort of channel, but this video is worth making an exception.

You are being put in restraints, one strap at a time. It’s exactly what I’ve been predicting for years. Get used to it. It’s not going away. It will get worse. If you disagree with the left, you will soon lose nearly all ability to express yourself on the Internet.

Remember those old videos of conquered people waving flags, throwing roses, and cheering invading Nazis? That’s us. You can applaud, but you can’t complain.

This stuff is not insignificant. It’s extremely dangerous. The world is controlled by words, not bombs, guns, ships, or planes. No voice, no unity, no power.

Get over the fantasy that your votes, protests, and guns will fix America. Withdraw from the Beast’s rigged game and give yourself to God. He will provide for you and include you in the rapture.
