Following up from last week, the based Boer known as The Aristocratic Utensil sums up the present state of the dispute between Academic Agent and Auron MacIntyre.
My take is simple: we are one week, nearly two, out from Trump winning and the Globohomo Thralls have not come to a consensus yet.
In the meantime, there are pockets of Thralls concentrated on immediate threats to their positions and privledges and not to the wider consensus-building effort. Once those immediate concerns are sorted, then we'll find out which way this goes.
I am skeptical of AA's Power-As-Primary position because being Le Donor Class means nothing without teeth, like a judiciary unable to enforces its rulings. This is why I find the useful labeling to be Merchants and Golems; the Merchants are the Power, while the Golems are the Ideology.
The problem with Golems is that they tend to run amok if not strictly controlled, something Merchants (not being Warriors, and thus lacking the character required to do so) turn out to be bad at doing as they consider it bitchwork. (They love themselves some automation for that reason.) The problem with the Merchants is that when they do yank on those very chains, they over-react and thus lay the groundwork for the next Golem revolt.
"So what are they going to do?"
What they did when the previous push flamed out: go back underground. Keep it quiet. Keep it out of the public eye. Bide their time.
"Be kind" is the code phrase for "keep it on the down-low".
This is not putting the Woke away; this is fallback to a prepared secondary position, rally there, and then come back stronger to retake lost ground and push further anew.
That’s not how this works.
They won’t disappear just because they are not in office.
There will still be drag queen story hour.
There will still be trannies trying to indoctrinate your kids to go on hormone blockers.
It's not over. Auron will, ultimately, win this bet because he's read the Death Cult right. There is no return to Fresh Prince. There is only the Death Cult using it as a skinsuit to try again.
This past week, the American Nation defeated the Globohomo Thralls' attempt to keep the God-Emperor away from the Golden Throne. Donald Trump won again.
The post-mortems are flying around furiously on all sides, but I want to focus your attention to Auron MacIntyre and Academic Agent. They have had, and still have, a difference of opinion on which is primary: Power or Ideology.
Below I'll embed their respective videos where they touch on this in the context of the election and the responses by the Globohomo Thralls of Empire. AA also cut an article for his Substack publication on the matter, which is worth a read.
As of this point, AA's explanation has the superior pile of receipts backing it up while Auron--aside from his valid point on non-falsifibility--was lacking until today's Regime Media clips started making the rounds proving Auron's point on Ideology being primary.
But AA's argument has a cornerstone that Auron not only cannot refute, but already accepts as correct and agrees upon: that what matters is the better-organized and supplied elite cohort, and the elite faction backing Trump was that cohort while the faction backing Biden was not. Furthermore, that losing faction acknowledged its inferior state by its action- by its deeds. AA's Jobber Hypothesis got confirmed by events.
What neither man mentioned explicitly, but Auron said implicitly, is that the Globohomo Thralls can accept the cost of replacing their man with a Jobber because they have control over the institutions of the United States and much of the Western world generally. They have a fallback position. From that position they can rally, regroup, organize, and execute a counter-strategy from a position of strength.
This is what people like Mike Cernovich, Milo, Douglas Mackey, Elon Musk, etc. are pointing out now consistently as the down-ballot races (and the fuckery therein) gets sorted. AA's position on Power being primary ignores the motivating and animating power of Ideology, believing ultimately that the end of Globohomo's Thralls is power itself and ideology is just a tool to use to get/keep/expand that power. Auron's position is that Ideology is primary because that determines the end, to which power is just the means to get those ends to manifest.
What I see is that these are, as AA implies, two rival cohorts dealing with a third cohort backing Trump and his coalition. The Power faction are the Zionists. The Ideology faction are the anti-Zionists, as that's how the Power/Ideology question is playing out between them.
The Ideology faction, when dominant, imposes its dystopian Theocratic regime upon those whom it subjugates. This is why you get all the humiliation rituals, the Friend/Enemy distinction so stark and obvious even Carl Schimdt says you're overdoing it (which is also why Muh Hypocrisy doesn't even phases them; you don't treat Friends as Enemies and vice-versa), the naked displays of petty power-tripping coupled by abject victim-performativism when they lose like they're Starscream out of Transformers. For all their performative Theater Kid bullshit, they are True Believers and thus religious fanatics so there are no brakes on their train
The Power faction, when dominant, plays Good Cop (them)/Bad Cop (Ideology) with the subjugated population. This is where AA gets "The Woke Gets Put Away" and thinks that Power always wins and Ideology is just a tool- for Power it is and they do "If you don't do as I say, I can't guarantee that these insane lunatics won't harm you" in the most naked form of Protection Racket fuckery around.
What Auron doesn't get is that Ideology fumbles power because they are driven by their fanaticism to pursue its ends no matter the costs, costs which squanders power when they have it. Because it wastes power like a teenager handed an inheritance of billions and no one around to stop them from going on a massive spending bender, Ideology rarely lasts in power if there is a rival cohort ready to pounce and able to succeed- and martyrdom, believe it or not, is not the trump card believers think it is.
What AA doesn't get is that Power gets seized by ideology when it misreads its ability to contain and control it, ending up being eaten by their own pets, because naked pursuit of power as the end in itself only appeals to Psychopaths and Sociopaths and most people Just Can't Even into that so they end up taken by ideology because of its greater power to justify action and thus power.
Yes, you need both, and that means you need an elite cohort that comprehends what Power is and how it works as well as what Ideology is (i.e. Narrative) and how it works- and why any ruling elite must have mastery of both to take and hold power long-term.
This is not a question of "Which matters?" but rather a question of "How do you mix them together to get the synthesis that is required to achieve long-term success?"
Until AA and Auron come to that point, they will continue to talk past each other and both will end up falling short of achieving the mission that they set for themselves.
N.B.: The reason martyrdom isn't a trump card is that it relies on the ability to report the events leading to that event to others. In short, it is wide open to Narrative Warfare, and if you think such events can't be recast by enemies to--at worst--not serve believers' interests then I remind you of how many who died for their beliefs are regarded today- with scorn and contempt. That, however, is worthy of a massive post to itself as control over the narratives of martyrdom is itself a theater of war.
This past week one of the many channels on YouTube that tracks Hollywood cut a video about Ryan Reynolds and Bob Iger. This video turned out to be a fantastic example of how Narrative Warfare works in action, so let's take a look at it.
The Channel.
You know by the name that you're not getting someone pretending to be wholly neutral, detached, disinterested, and objective. This is good; a channel that does not hide its point of view in the least is far more honest than someone that fronts as neutral but instead presents a propaganda piece.
This channel is against Globohomo's influence in the Hellmouth and therefore is aimed at attacking Globohomo-held institutions and the individuals that control as well as key subordinates under such command.
Therefore it is reasonable to conclude that a channel like this would, in fact, be a vector for enacting Narrative Warfare attacks against enemies. Don't take this video, or any other on this channel, uncritically; there's stuff here that sounds like hopium mixed into the verifiable facts that mix together to set and frame a preferred Narrative.
The Video
Effective Narrative Warfare attacks work off a core of fact and substance, and what is said here about Reynolds and Iger is not new. It's been all over Hellmouth media (formal and otherwise) for years. Jackman backing Reynolds is also not new. The new part is the possibility of this being the basis for a successful ouster of Bob Iger and his gang.
With how much everything about the business is changing AND how weak the Devil Mouse and Iger Gang are (and it is not getting better), coupled with the general discontent in the public, and you have the possibility of this going from Narrative to Reality quickly if this seems to get sufficient public reception. That's what this is really about: seeing if the idea is attractive enough to execute upon. It's A/B Testing.
Pay attention to the presentation. There are facts put before you, but framed in a manner that creates the intended narrative: a counter-elite willing and able to rally the audience against the ruling elites in charge, because that is necessary to kill the DIE Regime that Globohomo's pushing worldwide in all things.
The Objective
This is not done by Reynolds or anyone in his camp. This is an attempt by parties who are against Iger Gang trying to pressgang someone already known to be frustrated with Iger Gang into a position of leadership by using media manipulation to manuever Reynolds into taking up the proffered role of Public Hero against Iger Gang, knowing that (like all of those business successes mentioned) he is not the driving force- just the front man selling it.
Look at the framing. Constantly mentioning Iger Gang pushing deeply unpopular moves. Constantly mentioning Reynolds' fantastic treatment of the audience, and his successes in other business ventures contrasted with Iger Gang taking the profits to finance unpopular moves as it if were theft, to get the viewer to view Reynolds favorably via sympathetic framing and playing up the potential of Reynolds unfucking Marvel (and Disney) by taking it from Iger Gang as the solution to the present problems.
This is not news. This is propaganda. This is is an advertisement trying to sell you on the idea of Reynolds as a real life cultural hero to save Pop Culture from a known and proven incompetent and/or fanatical Death Cultist by a rival would-be elite that is opposed to Iger Gang such as Nelson Peltz or Bob Chapek.
If this sort of video keeps coming up in different channels, that's when you know it's an organized Narrative Warfare campaign for certain. If it starts getting popular, that's the tell that it is succeeded, and Reynolds' reaction will tell you if he's involved or not.
Conclusion
At this time, I don't think this is Reynolds; maybe someone a few degrees removed are testing this to see if there's demand, and then (if so) Ryan gets tappped and brought in because you don't let the Face run the show if you can help it. Ryan's not stupid, however, and will see the value in doing things like this because it's how he rehabilitated his own image-branding failures years ago into what he is now and others in the Hellmouth are just as savvy. If this goes somewhere, you'll know when others opposed to Iger Gang in both Marvel and Lucasfilm as well as Disney proper start aligning themselves with it (and him).
But, until then, this is just a trial ballon. It's a pilot episode, a pre-vizualization video, a test- an A/B Test. If the target audience likes it, they go with it; if not, they drop it and do something else. Simple as.
That's how basic Narrative Warfare works. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
Now try this with all that talk of North Korean troops in Ukraine, the atrocity claims in Gaza, and especially all sorts of election coverage (US this week, UK and EU recently, others to follow). You'll soon see what is there to set a narrative vs. what is there to merely observe and report in a detached and disinterested manner.
I was a different man when I began this blog. You can see the changes; I hid nothing since the first post. Writing was different. Beliefs were different. Policy positions were different.
Yet what remained consistent was my definition of "Empire", and my insistence that it is a metaphysical force that is no good for Mankind. Today I call it Satanic, though I am open to the idea that Empire is an egregore, but even that just ends up in the same place and changes nothing but a few details on how to destroy it.
That was not all that remained consistent. Before I started using the term, I never heard of "Narrative Warfare", and I never saw anyone attempt to track a toxic meme (or, if you prefer, an egregore) across time and space in the attempt to seek out its origin. (TLDR: As of this post, Genesis 6 and the Book of Enoch.)
That said, I have decided to move this blog (by this name or another) to Substack. I will do so around the turn of the year. The reason is simple: Substack makes it very easy to monetize, and I am no longer in a position where I can do this for free. While the Clubhouse is meant to be mostly free posts with a few paywalled specials, I will do the reverse for this; key posts, such as conceptual definitions, will be free and the rest paywalled (albeit with a preview, sometimes of some substance).
The aim is simple: to make enough from direct subscription-based support to ensure that I need no external support thereafter. I wish it were not necessary, but it is.
What I am not hearing out of this is why this makes a State an Empire.
Furthermore, this doesn't even need a King or Emperor. All it requires is a Patriarch. The basis for Civilization is the Family.
No, I don't mean it the way it's used now. As that video shows, the Family is a State unto itself- and it is an Absolute Monarchy.
While I agree that the European nations long for kings, and being Euro-descendant that still has weight with the American nation, we Americans must take the harder roads and revert straight to Ancient Patriarchy.
The modern State, the modern Corporation, and the modern individual are all Fake and Gay bullshit. The ancient family is ALL of those things, and it is Natural Law; this is an emergent property written by God into the fabric of Creation itself. Any polity that doesn't build off of this deserves to die.
A fixed American polity, which must be a Republic or it's not American, works this way:
The Family--defined as the entirety of the legitimate (i.e. born in wedlock) scions of a total patrilineal consaguinity--is the fundamental unit of the American polity. It alone has Personhood as we define it now, and thus assumes traits we current put to both natural and corporate (i.e. legal) Persons. The Patriarch of the Family is Pater Familias, and is the sole party responsible for ALL family members regarding outsiders; he has both absolute liability and absolute authority- and the power that goes with both.
Within a given political boundary, the eldest Patriarch administers that unit as he sees fit. The town is run by the eldest Patriarch in town, and so on up the chain. This is not negotiable. Don't like the current guy? Gank him, and everyone else, between him and your guy. Simple as.
The Family is checked only by the Church. ("Which one?" I capitalized the term. Figure it out.) The Church, furthermore, is there to be a safety valve; orphans unable to find homes, dissonant outliers who cannot find a place in secular society, etc. are to be taken in by the Church and either made useful (clerical work, ordination, etc.) or made impotent (i.e. by taking them out of the country, putting them in monestaries or hermitages). This is the only major change from the Ancient Family and religion, as the Ancient model is pre-Christian.
This addresses all of Spoon's criticisms, while retaining the core American character. There is nothing about republican forms of government that requires ANY democratic mechanisms at all. You can, and I have laid out how, a Republic can have absolute leadership.
There is a crystal clear chain of command between Families in terms of seniority; this is Explain Like I'm Five levels of simplicity and robustness. The system runs off "Fix it or I fix you" as a core tennant, making explicit in form what is already implicit in function in real life, and it removes those segments who have no business being anywhere near power or influence from having it.
With the Church on hand to intervene when things go awry (and the possibility of the Church again also being the Bank; see the example of Crusade-era international banking), and a system where the failure modes are well-known and well-documented (to make fixing and replacing easy to do), and you have a system that (a) conforms to Natural Law, (b) requires little complex machinry to operate (literal and metaphorical), and thus (c) is very robust and easily maintained without (d) having to resort to Empire. This is the basis for a Nation-State that WORKS.
Retards, Normies, and Dissidents alike say things like "The US is an empire. Empires don't last forever. The debt alone will sink the US."
You underestimate Globohomo if you think anything like this. Yes, Vox Day, I am looking your way- and you too, Doug Casey, and many other that ought to know better.
The Cycle of Empire is broken. Two things did it.
When a fucking Socialist and Marxist gets how this works better than "Right" talking heads do, SHAME!
This is how the system works. It's been implicitly so for centuries (see The Money Masters), and every last head of every last Central Bank in the world freely admits that this is how the system works on camera, on the record.
What does this mean in simple terms: The United States CANNOT GO BANKRUPT! You want to know why there's always money for things? This is why.
There will always be funding for the flexing of Imperial power because this is how the system works. Doesn't matter what the number is; the cost is paid, guaranteed. (If you want to know why you pay taxes, it's this simple: to compel the use of the currency issued. That's it; this is why the tax authorities are one of the strongest enforcement agencies in every government.)
That, right there, breaks the cycle. Yes, this is how it works in Russia and China (and India, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom, etc.- but NOT in European Union states because they are slaved to the Euro).
In theory, you could wage enough economic warfare to make the capacity of the economy unable to absorbe the generated currency, but that's where the backstop comes into play.
This is also the reason that the United States (as the muscle and engine for Globohomo) will never be openly invaded by hostile powers. (The traitors within are another issue, which is what we have in the US right now.)
Who the fuck is going to Margin Call the people who have (a) All The Nukes, sufficient to incinterate all life on Earth several times over, and (b) a ruling class sufficiently petty and venal to slam the button with the fist of an angry god if they believe that they stand a chance of losing power?
That's the other thing breaking the cycle: the ruling Imperial power has Everything That Matters under a Sword of Damocles. Everyone running a government knows this, which is why all of the hostile action against the United States (and by extension, Globohomo) is against the American nation and done by the American state using hostile actors as catspaws.
That's right, all those "Fuck you Yankee" sorts? You're all suckers being used by Globohomo. Good job, retards.
Until you break MMT, even removing the nukes is not enough; remember that the nukes are a backstop, not the backstop. MMT in effect means that one backstop can easily be replaced by another, and that "another" is already in development. (Yes, ol' Elon can, and likely is, involved in this somehow- if only as just a hired service to launch killsats.)
Empire Must Fall, but it will not just fall due to the old cyclical forces playing out. Globohomo's Thralls successfully patched that out, so it has to be done actively.
Take out the MMT, then the nukes, and then Empire will fall.
The incumbent elite class of the West are either traitors or incompetents. Either way, they have to go.
Yes, Academic Agent, I see you in the back. Don't think me unfamiliar with The Populist Delusion; I am calling for a long-overdue circulation of elites, and you definitely own Auron MacIntyre a cigar because the treasonous Western elites need The Woke so they won't put it away. It is the incompetent opposition that want to do so, but cannot because of some combination of corruption and incompetence.
The Death Cult afflicting the West seized power. They hold power. They are not going to just surrender it; it must be ripped from their hands by force.
Electoral measures are necessary, but not sufficient. We have already seen that Globohomo Thralls of Empire give no fucks about doing what it takes to stay in power; they just have preferences on the measures employed to do so.
They are necessary because these elites are guile-based narcissists so they are word-wizards and Narrative Warfare specialists. They cannot wield force well because it repulses them at a fundamental level; it disgusts them, so they are also disgusted by the men needed to use that force on their behalf, distrust them, and do what they can to keep them on very short leashes to assuage that visceral disgust when not needed in the moment to do violence that they cannot or will not do themselves.
These Globohomo Thralls will do whatever it takes to neuter or destroy threats to their power. AfD gets elected someplace? Lawfare, procedural gridlock, financial fuckery, etc. afflicts them into impotency when they can't just have elections stolen from them. Then, once the threat is put down the retalations come in the manner Mike Benz explained when he was on with Tucker Carlson: all power of the State is employed to destroy all possible enemies. This happened to Trump, and it is now happening to Marine Le Pen.
These same Globohomo elites recognize the potential for more action, so the massive invasion of hostile foreigners from Africa and Asia accelerated and flows of invaders are now deliberately deployed--with the aid of local elites in the targetted areas--into pockets of enemy populations specifically to disrupt those populations and eliminate the threat that they pose to Globohomo.
The only thing Globohomo Thralls of Empire can do is basic recognition of threats by enemies and the manipulation of pawns to throw into the way as disposable shields to tank the hits while they attempt long-term degradation strategies to wear down enemy targets into impotence and collapse- and they do this to rival Imperial powers and enemy domestic populations alike.
Which returns me to "necessary, but not sufficient".
What is necessary with electoral measures is to inflict psychological stress upon them repeatedly, which is happening as even Thralls far from a given episode's occurance (e.g. American Thralls about AfD's electoral wins) flip their shit about The Wrong Side Winning.
Which, in turn, forces more and more brick-to-face obvious flexes of institutional power in order to address the threat and assuage the freaked out fellow travelers. These are, in turn, pointed out on social media that Globohomo does not control--such as Twitter--and now more and more people see with their own eyes what was only talked about. You cannot tell them; you have to show them.
As more such actions and reactions pile up, it gets easier to show how these things directly and immediately affect a given individual; this throws popular support increasingly behind the dissident elite cohort organizing to punt out the incompetents in charge and their craven co-conspirators playing false opposition. This is a feedback loop, and it has become a race between how fast the dissident elites can organize and deploy political energy behind them vs. the Globohomo elites using State power to smash apart such bases of power.
Yes, this means that the dissident elites have cottoned on to the need to erect and maintain parallel organizations based on patronage; the real breakthrough will be when there is a route-around for the financial system fortress in the global bureaucratic order, as not even the rival Imperial powers have squared that circle just yet, though the Red Dynasty of Emperor Winnie has tried the hardest followed by the Neo-Tsar.
This one ain't hard to figure out. This is about Total Narrative Dominance.
BREAKING: The FCC is being probed after fast-tracking George Soros purchase of 220+ radio stations before November's election. pic.twitter.com/1Ip5xqUwMb
The idea is that by taking out any radio station actively run by Globohomo they can fill the gap in their Wall of Narrative that's currently afflicting them.
While some known Cuckservatives are being deplatformed, the reality is that this is a freakout reaction. The Narrative that matters is not done over legacy media. It's done online via social media and more private outlets, both of which are contested at best and denied territory for Globohomo the rest of the time.
Therefore this is an attempt to either drown out Normie-facing media in Globohomo bullshit, hoping that this counteracts what they see online, or (more likely) this is a pure freakout reaction by an old man who doesn't comprehend how the game changed and is falling back on a now-obsolete playbook to cope with unexpected opposition.
That's an open, avowed desire for Total Narrative Dominance.
If Soros, coming from the Private end, were in coordination with Public action against online outlets they don't control (e.g. Twitter) this would be more concerning than it is; at present, it is not- but Elon's recent defeat in Brazil shows that it could still happen.
But not in time to affect the US Presidential Election.
And that is looking very bad for Globohomo, including the defeat of several go-to means for rigging elections (but not yet all of them). They're going to have to go kinetic on him again and soon because they're running out of time and options.
So no, those stations aren't yet a problem unless you're a Boomer that hasn't yet figured out how legacy media lies to you.
It's not over yet. Neither despair nor presume victory, but the signs of increasing desperation signal that Globohomo is afraid of the God-Emperor's return. Empire must fall.
This past week Israel revealed that it tasked its Intelligence agencies with the task of doing damage to its Non-State Actor enemies.
Israel's agencies did this by compromising the supply chain for popular electronic communications devices--pagers and walkie-talkies--bought by those actors to use as part of its communications. This has, with good reason, caused a lot of consternation both by those directly affected and by observors who were at some remove or uninvolved entirely alike.
This past week also saw Ukraine make use of drone technology to enable that government to engage in long-distance strikes upon Russian military targets deep within Russia.
While this had been going on at some time, comparison and contrasting these ongoing efforts with the revelation of Israel's ability to use similiar technologies to achieve precision attacks on far smaller and more mobile targets.
The Myth of Dual-Use Neutrality of Business
One of the things that Mike Benz repeatedly emphasized in his recent round of interviews, such as with Tucker Carlson, is that American corporations and lobby groups work hand-in-glove with American Intelligence via the U.S. State Department and the NGO Network. Because Benz also said that said State Department and the NGO Network is also the means by which Globohomo wrangles vassals states into line, we can conclude that the same US-centric arrangement extends to the European Union (including the non-EU members that are in the European Economic Area like Switzerland and Norway and the Asian vassals such as South Korean and Japan).
In each case there is this "dual-use" dogma in place to give all proceeding the patina of neutrality, dervived from "dual-use" technologies--usually economics or software, such as operating systems or micro-processors--that have ordinary civilian use-cases that are legitimate and a (para-)military use that (without State permission) is proscribed. The catch is that because of the former it is nigh-impossible to restrict trade in provision of such goods or services without damaging the economic or giving political leverage to your enemies.
That, until now, was a form of restraint. The accepted opinion was to exploit the constraint's usual two-way nature to find ways of tracking what went where, or who got what services, to further Law Enforcement or (Counter-)Intelligence operations.
One need only look at popular media articles, on all sides, across the last century or so to see that this was a myth agreed upon and not reality. Time and again there would be the ocassional sensational article, book, news segment on television, and these days that means podcasts and short-form video too all about how this or that was too dangerous for general use for this or that reason.
Sometimes this would get ridiculous--someone complaining about Toyota trucks being used in para-military capacities as latter-day Jeeps--and sometimes this would be used for other ends (anything involving nuclear power and electronics because Remote Detonation).
What this past week revealed is that one common complaint, usually only seen in fiction, was the real problem: compromised supply chains.
Again, recall that Globohomo in particular (but the CCP does this also as policy) operates via this public-private partnership centered around NGOs in order to diffuse liability and make accountability impractical if not impossible to enforce.
What could Mossad have done? They already had surveilance of enemy communications and assets with ears on the ground. All they needed to do was to slip between the ordered electronics' point of origin and their delivery to the buyers, which is very easy to do if you have "partners" and "associates" that can let your men in the back door to do what is needed to turn the products into bombs with remote detonation- and that assumes that wiring them as bombs is necessary at all.
And when your allies are happy to just make accomodations for your people to do what you want to the widgets, compromising those chains is no more difficult than making a phone call to the right NGO or Diplomatic office.
Going Forward, It's All Fair Game
Because there is no longer any illusion that there is a meaningful difference between Civilian and Military widgets or services due to this exposed arrangement, first seen in a more deniable form in Ukraine and now explicitly done by Israel, you can bet that more things previously restrained will be cut loose. Here and now, that means technologies long believed to exist are going to be confirmed or denied--no more Glomar Responses--in short order as they are deployed, detected, and disseminated by social media.
BREAKING: Lebanon hit with massive bomb, one of the largest Israel has ever sent.
Among some people, this is theorized as a tactical nuclear warhead with a clean fusion device. What it really is will come out soon enough.
The post-WW2 consensus, which underlaid all this Dual-Use Neutality Mythology and other such stuff, is now rapidly unravelling. The paradigm is shifting, and that means that there is a window of opportunity opening up. Time to make Empire fall, and you can start by taking this myth and busting it.
Something Frame Game talked about when he was on with Tucker is that Globohomo, working first through the US State Department and then through the European Union's various organs (and those of its member states), has no qualms doing massive purges of enemies of Globohomo when it installs its Thralls into power in a targetted polity.
The “transitional justice” playbook in action. If we had a @HouseForeignGOP with a pulse they would root it out & bring it the US Ambassador to Italy for questioning. Salvini has been on the top man on the State Dept’s hit list in Italy for 7 years. https://t.co/wSkREx1iWm
Globohomo does not care how it is done. All it cares about is that (a) it keeps whatever power it takes and (b) it maintains plausible deniability because otherwise Total Narrative Dominance is threatened.
That's why they use lawfare first and foremost when purging enemies. They use captive media to frame the targets as BadWrongThinkers that did BadWrongThings so they must be punished to protect Muh Democracy (defined as the consensus of Globohomo-controlled institutions).
They also use the prisons to justify what would otherwise be condemned as Human Rights Violations (because it's okay when they do it), up to and including killing people.
Salvini may put up a brave front, but behind closed doors he and his side has to know that this is an implicit death threat should they succeed in imprisoning him. Opposing Empire is not without costs, and this is one of them. If you come at the king, you best not miss. Nonetheless, Empire Must Fall.

Globohomo, moreso than the other two Imperial powers (Russia, China) and the wanna-be (India), are utterly dominant upon Narrative Warfare for their power and control.
It is, by definition, Totalitarian. Globohomo demands that you not only obey, but that you believe with utter sincerity in Globohomo's moral authority and thus legitimacy.
This is why no matter how small, how irrelevant, how trivial Globohomo's Thralls come after you and demand that your hobbies, your entertainments, your incidentals, your every waking moment and every slumbering second be wholly immersed in The Narrative. Globohomo's weakness, as shown by their deeds every time this gets broken, is that they cannot compete against a compelling alternative to The Narrative.
Why does the US State Department go after Elon? He breaks The Narrative. Why did they make Pavel (and thus Telegram) bend the knee? Because Pavel let others break The Narrative. Why is #Gamergate still fucking John Wick to them after 10 years? We broke The Narrative.
They cannot compete and win. They are forced to resort to censorship, sabotage, blackmail, and perfidity in order to force others out of the running so they can win by default.
This is why Globohomo runs off a policy of TINA (There Is No Alternative), and does it utmost to segregate populations from the rest of the world- even between populations under Globohomo's occupation. If a threat appears, it will attempt to subvert it into its control. If it cannot be subverted, it will be destroyed. If it cannot be destroyed, then access to it will be choked off. We see this in real time with videogames, comics, film, television, and prose media. Meanwhile, Globohomo forces open target populations' media markets to spread The Narrative to new subjects- exactly as Frame Game explained above.
And yes, "choke off access" goes both ways; if they can't stop the threat from getting to us, they can and do poison the well to repell us from the threat. (e.g. Regime Localizers willfully inserting The Narrative and other poison pills into translations).
Note that Globohomo goes out of its way to impose English as The Imperial Tongue, and if it can it tries to first make English the dominant tongue before making it the only tongue- and severely disincentivizing those that are not Thralls serving Globohomo from even trying to learn any other language or using it in Globohomo territory.
(Yes, EU, I am looking at you. Asia--Japan, South Korea in particular--you're next.)
What you see in this Brazil action is Globohomo's Total Narrative Dominance being directly threatened by Elon and his allies. A counter-elite is forming around him, Trump, and a few others in Globohomo's territory. If it is not them, it will be another counter-elite that forms the vanguard around which the forces will build that makes Empire fall.
Frame Game Radio (Mike Benz) went on Tucker Carlson's show to talk about the arrest of Pavel Durov.
What he did over this two hour interview is lay out how Globohomo, in its current form, organizes against its rival Imperial powers: Russia and China.
What he inadvertantly revealed is that #Gamergate was the Black Swam event that prompted the Thralls of Empire serving Globohomo to freak the fuck out and go Full Tilt Bozo down the path we're on. In short, the idea that someone showed Steve Bannon what went down that had him going "WRITE THAT DOWN!" is not out of line- and Ricky Vaughn being sent to prison over memes is not just a LOLSORANDOM charge.
Was the Biden administration involved in the arrest of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov? Mike Benz explains.

Listen very carefully to how Mike explains the Narrative Warfare capacity of Globohomo, when it came online, and why they freaked out.
He did not mention us by name, but considering the anniversary event and that Games Journos are the Farm League for Mainstream Media (just look at how hard Jason Schrier strives to get out of it to this day) and do every single bit of Narrative bullshit that the big players do FOR THE SAME REASONS.
We were the Black Swan that no one saw coming!
We were the first to crack that wall in the Narrative Warfare Dyson Sphere. Sure, we did it against the Regime's Farm League Teams, but we did it nonetheless; it's no different than an unexpected revolt in a heretofore secure rear area garrisoned by shitters and losers because that's exactly what it was.
The newbs and fuckups screwed up a job with low expectations, then fucked up the containment response, and suddenly people further up the status (and thus command) ladder had to be diverted to handle something that they should never have had to handle.
In the process of doing this, we did irreperable damage to the Narrative Warfare Complex. How? Let Arnie explain.
We made them bleed. More important is that we made them bleed where others, who can do far more than we ever did, could see it. Like Steve Bannon.
Mike may not have explicitly put the timeline together, as likely as not because he isn't that up on the lore, but it all tracks: Gamergate is what forced Globohomo to go Mask Off about Narrative Warfare.
Whatever else is said, whatever else becomes of it- or of us (and many of us are not going to get those glorious ends for this), this can't be taken from us: we made the Regime bleed, and that showed the Regime's enemies that it is not invulnerable- that it can be killed, THAT EMPIRE CAN FALL!
Found of Telegram, Pavel Durov, got arrest in France after arrive by private jet the other day. Mike Benz (Frame Game Radio) explains why.
Just got booted from the @MarioNawfal space so I’m gonna speak my peace here: what’s behind today’s arrest of Telegram founder Pavel Durov pic.twitter.com/FexLvJZK92
This is why, in addition to WhatsApp, you don't use Discord to run your ops.
Telegram may come through this untouched, but Pavel will not and Globohomo is good at leveraging subjects it has intelligence upon into compliance- and that's before resorting to good old fashioned lying about it.
If Pavel is not prepared to die, and he is not prepared to extricate himself, then Globohomo will break him and turn Telegram into their turf as they did WhatsApp and Discord.
This also means that dissident businessmen need to reconsider their movement strategies. The French government knew Pavel was coming. Either it never occured to Pavel to lie, he or a known associate forgot to turn off their snitchbrick (most likely), or someone that should have kept their mouth shut talked; either way OpSec got breeched and the Frogs snatched him on arrival.
Dissident leaders, no matter their command, need to review this arrest and keep an eye on the developments with an eye towards hammering through the thick skulls of others why OpSec matters.
Empire Must Fall.
UPDATE
Yes, one of Pavel's entourage did not get the OpSec Talk.
If she won't stop live-tweeting, and you can't do without her, take the damned snitchbrick away. She can upload the photos after it's over, when the risk has passed.
Like many dissidents not consumed by despair or delusional on hopium, I too have long considered my options should the Thralls somehow win.
This would, in time, turn into two distinct forks with a related root: Internal Displacement and Exile Abroad. Because I live in a large country with plenty of poltical balkanization and decentralization, the former option is a viable one such that even being just an hour's drive or less away from my home is sufficient under certain conditions. The latter, unfortunately, is proving more difficult to set up and not because of my nationality.
To this end, I have followed a curated list of professional relocation experts, Digital Nomad channels, real estate professionals, and travel channels by various peoples.
I will not share the specific plans for each option here; OpSec is necessary. Private conversations with trusted individuals have happened, and will continue to happen, but I am not talking about this in public because I am in trouble- yet.
I am talking about this because several of my contacts, acquaintances, fellow travelers, etc. are in trouble and are now facing the threat of imprisonment or worse by the Globohomo Thralls occupying the government where they are.
As is so often the case for me, I have devised an operational plan to handle this problem but I lack the resources to do it.
I devised a plan to erect a private transit network. This consists of an array of private jets, ships, buses, and (I would like) trains that ordinarily cater to the rich and wealthy but would be used to covertly shuffle out dissidents and their families when they transmit a code phrase to me. Avoiding commercial travel is vital when you are under threat from the State, which is why this focuses upon the use of what is usually considered luxury modes of travel. To ensure that the crews/drivers/etc. are on board I would employ other dissidents with necessary qualifications and put them on the exfil missions.
The idea is that the dissident concerned would establish foreign residency in a country with no extradition treaty with their home country, preferably acquire citizenship there, and have access to lodging there secured beforehand. When the need to flee hits, the company gets them out and to their prepared secondary location where they are now safe from the hostile State controlled by Globohomo Thralls.
Dissident organizations would be encouraged to get their members signed up for this emergency protection, and over time the network would acquire the capacity to move people in large groups.
If the dissidents need to Fork & Replace to win, then this includes having the ability to move around unobserved. Some people get this. This is a war. Start acting like it. Logstics wins wars.
Recently Millenial Woes began a series at his Substack feed called "The Seeds of Gay Doom".
This series talked about the revival of British television classic Doctor Who and how even at the time in 2005 the showrunner (Russel T. Davies) was hard at work using his position as the showrunner to produce propaganda- not entertainment.
Working for the British Broadcasting Corporation meant working for a corporation that had no need to produce a profit as it was state-supported and sponsored, economically as well as politically. Considering what has become of the Establishment in the United Kingdom, that is not mere Rhetoric; Davies should be considered a Client to a Patron that seeks the demoralization, dispossession, and destruction of the English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish nations.
"But the latest seasons are ratings failures."
SO. FUCKING. WHAT?
Propaganda operations are not profit-seeking commercial enterprises. They are cultural and political operations; economics is a reward of Patronage and not the measure of the effectiveness of the same.
Therefore we can see that the only likely route to shutting this operation, or any other such operation, is to force the Client to compete for resources from the Patron with rival Clients. Yes, this does mean not giving time and attention to Davies' propaganda; it also means being very loud, very obnoxious, very conspicuous about giving that time and attention to what would be seen as a rival operation.
This is, by the way, how Globohomo's Thralls see the massive rise of attention, time, and money given to Japanese, Korean, and Chinese media- Clients serving a rival Patron.
The Client sees the alternative as a threat. The Patron agrees, and therefore uses other Clients to attack the alternative with the aim of either capturing or destroying it so that the Client's propaganda can succeed.
So long as the Patron is willing to back the Client, no amount of losses will put a stop to the propaganda operation. Therefore the objective is to convince the Patron to stop supporting the Client.
Identify the Patron. No, not the institution; identify the specific individual, fix him in place, and go after him personally and publically. Find out what his vulnerabilities are and hammer them without mercy; make him feel pain that only someone that can be a Patron can feel- the pain of loss. Loss of face, losss of prestige, loss of power, loss of wealth, loss of the things that DEFINE a Patron- these are the pains you must inflict and you must do so with supreme cruelty.
The objective is to make it clear to the Patron that disavowing the Client, exiling him from his network, and never re-engaging him thereafter is preferable to the damage he sustains by retaining him.
Individually, this is difficult. As a group, this is attainable.
Succeed at doing this once and the threat of it happening to others will bring them into line; no Patrons wants the illusion of power broken like that.
Because "Get Woke, Go Broke" is not a thing, especially when what "goes broke" was formerly an enemy operation that they stole and repurposed for their purposes as Davies did to Doctor Who. To break a propaganda operation, you have to break the Patron-Client relationship that enables it, and that means going after the Patron commissioning it. Sever that link and you win. Win and you get closer to seeing Empire fall.
Recently a Rwandan teenager stabbed a bunch of English women and children, killing three.
The Labour government under Keir Starmer represented the entire English Establishment, which has long been Thralls of Empire, in making it clear that the violent aliens and foreigners are clients of the Thralls' regime and that the native nations of the United Kingdom are enemies of His Majesty's government has announced China-like surveilance.
A senior government advisor has called for a Covid-style lockdown of the UK immigration protests. pic.twitter.com/uLJxp0qsA2
This would include facial recognition technologies, and--ultimately--a Chinese-style Social Credit system openly in use.
The problem here isn't that this is being said. The problem is that this is taking defacto policies done deniably through fellow travelers in the private sector and make them dejure policies done by the State.
As Carl Benjamin (aka Sargon of Akkad) and the Lotus Eaters said several times over the last week, the United Kingdom acts as an Occupational Regime against the native peoples of the United Kingdom. There is now explicit two-tiered policing and non-enforcement policy execution where discrimination against the native peoples is openly avowed and all media in the U.K. is aimed at demoralizing the natives while demonizing them so that the imported bioweapons of the Thralls know who to target. The law is explicitly rigged to protect the imported bioweapons and punish the natives at every turn.
This has gotten to the point where even the natives' language is considered open to destruction.
And to drive the bioweapon point home, the present catalyst for the rioting is the son of a slaughter in the Rwandan Genocide and himself seeks to genocide the natives.
Yet the public response continues to presume that there is recourse through State organs despite all evidence to the contrary.
No, my British readers, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GET OUT OF THIS WITHOUT VIOLENCE. Your illegitimate government, and the Monarchy, seeks your extinction. They cannot be swayed by moral arguments; they find it moral to exterminate you. They cannot be swayed by practical arguments; they find it practical to exterminate you. They cannot be appeased; they take anything short of violent aggression as weakness and thus justification to exterminate you. There is no Gandhi-style solution to this; you just invite more predation by appearing weak before the predators seeking to consume you until you are extinct.
Let me show you what your government really thinks of you in terms most of you--thanks to your BBC--will understand.
All of you in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland- you're all this fucked. That's what your government thinks of you--vermin to be culled--and they imported bioweapons to do it for them while they use State power to punish you for defending yourselves against them.
There is nothing you could have said (or not said), and nothing you could have done (or not done), to convince them to not seek your extinction. They hate you that much, and they have for a very long time.
Stop pretending that your government is not your enemy. It is. It is therefore illegitimate and need not be obeyed or defered to. Treat it as the enemy it is, or you won't be around much longer to see Empire fall.
British public historian TIK began his channel by doing lengthy and niche studies on Stalingrad during World War 2.
Eventually he began noticing certain pattern commonalities among the combatants. Yes, combatants- not just the Axis. Like many, TIK went into the origins of the war's conflicts and thus got into the questions of the ideologies motivating the contending parties of the war. While Imperial Japan remains absent, his insights into Communism, Facism, National Socialism, Mosley's British Facism, and even the Social Democracy attitudes in the United Kingdom, United States, and the rest of the Anglosphere would lead him into Pattern Recognition that would make Blue Hat Gang proud.
The result is a series of videos that had him concluding that the common pattern was (stop me if you've heard this before) a Christian Heresy disguised as a political ideology and these would become a popular sideline series of videos- a series that is now a playlist.
While talking about Hitler and the Nazis gets the clicks, all of his analysis of Nazi Germany and Hitler would find its way first to his contemporaries and then to the men leading into their various regimes: the 19th Century emergences of Communism, Socialism, and so on. The Pattern Recognition got refined from the general (the ideologies) to the specific (their founders and proponents) and that would lead to a trio of videos, the most recent dropping early this past week.
Go ahead, watch the latter three videos. If you have time shortages, watch just the first of the three and at Double Speed. Take notes.
Once you see TIK's Psychological Profile, write it down and commit it to memory. Compare this against every single Leftist figure you have ever heard of. You will find that a suprisingly high number of them fit this profile like it was a custom-made set of clothes.
Why does this matter? For the same reason that Empire seeks to study prospective prey: to learn how best to attack and destroy them.
You will find this profile in Keir Starmer's government. You will find it in Ursala von der Layen's EU Commission. You will find it in every Leftist organization, great and small, and especially with their Antifa street operatives (and the genetic refuse they wield as bioweapons).
In short, you know what to do--in the specific AND in the general--to shatter them utterly, and then to grind the shards to dust.
TIK has done a lot of good here. This is information you can use, you can APPLY TO YOUR OPERATIONS, and you SHOULD!
He just added to your toolbox. Thank the man, throw him some financial support, and then return the favor by breaking the people he's profiled. Empire Must Fall.
In Clown World, "the Establishment" is fake and gay. You need to find folks like this anime fox woman to get legit info on what is going on.
Do not believe the claims that Microsoft, John Deere, and anyone else is actually purging DEI from their organizations. As Kirsche shows, they are just shuffling off-stage in order to change up the set-dressing and costuming (via language control) before re-engaging to continue their Satanic Crusade against Civilization in service to Empire.
Simple. As. Kirsche has the info; watch the video, take notes, and act on what she provides.
You want to cut that off at the pass? Spread the word: "BRIDGE means DEI!"
Mike Benz first started stirring things up by going Anon as Frame Game Radio to explain Narrative Warfare to dissidents.
This is Mike explaining Globohomo--what he called The Blob--from his perspective. This over two hours, so if you can handle playing at 1.5x or 2x Speed do it.
If you are at all familiar with John F. Kennedy, you'll know that he too was opposed by the Intelligence Community and its private/foreign associates.
Listen carefully to Benz' explanation of how the IC works to sandbag, sabotage, etc. anyone and everyone that opposes them. Now recall a man on the other end of the political spectrum that went harder about how Globohomo works over 20 years ago.
TLDR on Perkins: He was a Globohomo asset. He had a crisis of conscience and this was his confession as well as as exposure.
The system (and rival Imperial powers like China do this too now) works like this:
Find corrupt/corruptable local elites. Back them with cheap credit to be Satrap.
When the Satrap outlives their usefulness, repeat with new Satrap.
If that fails, murk people until someone either takes the deal or someone outside is installed as Satrap to groom locals into the system.
If that fails, gin up a war and use the military to murk in mass quantities while wrecking all that shit; new regime then gives sweetheart deals to Globohomo corps to rebuild and replace the wrecked stuff.
(Unstated, as it's not been needed to date) Nuke the faggots, maybe with literal nukes, sweep up the dust and clean up the ruins that get occupied while ginning up replacement populations to hold it.
That's right. For all the Roman talk, Globohomo is actually a Neo-PERSIAN imperial model that uses international banking and multi-national corporations as the primary agents of Imperial power.
What is applied in the Satrapies is also used in the Imperial Core. This is why the IC first tried to bribe Trump, then tried to Kompromat him, and when those didn't work flat out Narrative Warfare got deployed. After that failed the lawfare came out and that's finally played out as ineffective. Therefore the Economic Hit-Men got benched and now the Jackals (the assassins and similar killers) are deployed to flat-out kill Trump.
In the Globohomo Imperial Core you only get one shot at that. One. Shot.
Team #NothingEverHappens took a big L yesterday.
The IC may fuck up, but they aren't (yet) wholly insane or incompetent. They'll see that they fucked up, and they're going to start tard-wrangling the rest of the Imperial Core into letting Trump win (instead of ramping up the Election Fraud even harder) for one reason: the amount now needed to steal the election would make it so obvious that everyone would see it as such.
That has trickle-down effects on every junior level of government, all the way down to Dog Catcher. The Thralls of Empire in Globohomo, seeing that they have a fallback line deep in the bureaucracy of the U.S. Federal Government as well as those of several states, many counties, and many cities. They would be wise to just sandbag him again through a second term and bide their time.
If they don't, that is a massive tell that things for Globohomo are worse than they seem. (Remember, they get the real data; we get bullshit.)
That he turned his head at the exact moment that saved his life, turning a headshot into a grazing hit, is nothing short of Divine Providence. That's a sign, folks. Trump has the Divine Mandate- it is The Return of the King.
Joshua Lisec and Jack Poso co-write a book called Unhumans about Commies and their ilk.

Joshua relates this to the matters of the mania surrounding Abortion and mutilating children into eunuchs while mindfucking them into thinking they're the other sex. Both of these kill children; one of them just does so slowly and via long-term torture until they kill themselves in despair.
But what I want to point your attention to is the narrative driving these "unhumans".
The "great leaders" took pains to show themselves as greater men than the Great Men that they so despised. Vox Day would call them Gamma Males, and he would be right, but British historian TIK had a far more potent contribution because he developed a specific psychological profile that you ought to see.
(Yes, he's gotten pushback, which he answered here.)
Start combining the two and you now have very powerful tools to deal with these people in your daily life. Learn the profile and apply it to every one of these folks, and their sympathizers, and you can pierce the paradigm barrier by knowing how this is an enemy religion so you can talk to them in terms that they will accept from an unassailable position to guarantee that they flee from any argument- however in bad faith.
They are so persistent because they are fanatical cultists. They are True Believers; the cynical grifters will boil off as soon as things get difficult for them, so that's when (a) you know you're making things happen and (b) you'll know to anticipate an escalation of retaliation from them as any moderating influence is purged. Don't expect the pattern recognition to stop with the Commies (et. al.), and don't be surprised when you find even worse parties in the process.
You're dealing with a heresy. Act like it. Notice it, name it, and purge it. Empire must fall.
When Ubisoft started promoting Assassin's Creed: Shadows featuring the historical man known as Yasuke, there was a concerted effort to promote the narrative that he was a full-fledged samurai.
To make a long story short, "LOLno".
But (a) that hurts Ubisoft's prospects for the game and (b) doesn't further the demoralization campaign against Japan so (c) "the evidence" needs to be doctored to support The Narrative.
When I went through University, every single librarian and historian I studied under--NO MATTER THEIR POLITICS--forbade citing Wikipedia for this reason.
But the issue here is Citogenesis turning into Accepted Fact and thus Common Sense, and that is Narrative Warfare in action.
There's a reason that competent scholars not only interrogate the evidence but those that provided them; scholars, like scientists, are just as prone to corruption as bureaucrats and elected officials- and, like scienitsts and politicans, are just as often stupidly cheap whores to boot.
This has been a well-known problem for so long that it's become a storytelling trope to itself.
(Insert theories about Prince Harry being a secret bastard here, among other Manufactured Narratives-as-History trope examples.)
Now consider this being done with things that you know or care about. Some of you care about Ukraine. Some about Gaza. Some the legitimacy of the American Federal Government. Whatever it is, consider that the narrative surrounding it may not be wholly true or factual, and consider that this may be so because the lie serves the narrative.
This wilfull fabrication and obfuscation of the truth in and of itself serves the purpose of Empire. By throwing certainty into chaos, Man is thrust into a liminal space where the core of his identity is rendered fragile and malleable; Man must anchor himself into something certain, or seemingly so, in order build first his identity and then all else that defines him and his existence- his culture, his civilization.
Deniably throw the target into chaos (cause the problem), then Empire comes along with answers that restore order (provide the solution) with the hidden costs of enslaving the target to Empire and making Thralls of them in the process because the new order rests itself on a fraudulent inversion of Original Sin that only abasement to Empire can assuage- but never release.
Tell me that is not what happened in the West post-WW2 and I will call you a liar, because that is exactly what happened- and now they're doing this to Japan, South Korea, and it will begin worming its way through Latin America too in short order. All that changes are the trappings.
This is Empire in action, and it is why Empire must fall.
This past week, in a small niche of the greater culture, a corporate media outlet got shut down.
This is because a competing corporate media conglomerate bought the outlet's parent company and shut them down. To ordinary business observors, this is nothing unusual; this is typical acquisition and consolidation operations.
As much as one can assign nefarious intent--and yes, there is such--for this the act itself needed no such thing.
I say that because media as a commercial enterprise is entirely driven by Network Effects for their value. Competing networks always end up with the greater subsuming the lesser without outside intervention purely due to how commercial incentives work. Centralization is rewarded, so that is what happens over time.
Revealed Preferences shows that this stablizes at a handful of choices for the end-user with noticable, but not necessarily substantial, differences between them. This means that the end result is a Cartel arrangement where conflict is managed, even manufactured, to gatekeep out upstarts and maintain the illusion of choice between the Cartel members.
It takes real power from outside to prevent this from happening, but the irony is that only centralization allows for real power to accrue into a dense enough form to do that.
Figuring out how solve this problem, or at least come up with a practical solution, is something better minds than mine have grappled with for generations.
I may have something that works where I am, but it isn't likely to be universally applicable. Keep that in mind if you grapple with this problem.
A reminder on how bad things get, and are still in many places, and if not for the Internet this would still be buried in places like the old Art Bell radios show.
Trafficking is not just the satisfaction of targetted individuals' disordered desires in order to get kompromat to use as leverage over them and thus suborn them into being agents of Empire.
Trafficking's real purpose is a spiritual one. It exists to feed human sacrifice demands.
The only difference between then and now is that the ritual action is "merely" sexual violation instead of going straight to outright ritual murder. The killing, instead, is far more likely of the Cleaner sort than the ritual murder- though that certain still happens.
Exaggerated, but not by much.
The defense of the trafficking is not merely because it hides among the trafficking of drugs, guns, illegals, and other things deleterious to a target population that Empire seeks to subjugate.
The defense is particularly vehement because, like the otherwise-inexplicable disproportionate punishment of the Imperial Creed's violation (i.e. disrespecting Muh Gayshit), it is a religious matter. Trafficking feeds human sacrifice, which is what Empire feeds upon to sustain itself in the face of relentless force by God and Nature to snuff it out.
Which is why whenever anyone poses a threat to any aspect of the trafficking network, you can rely upon a dispropotionate retaliation to come upon those responsible.
NEW: El Salvador authorities burn a 2.7-ton pile of cocaine worth an estimated $67 million.

Narcotrafficking networks cause a lot of problems in Latin America. They do not stop at drugs; guns, people, and more also get moved around by them- and Intelligence Agencies make use of them as Deniable Assets. (Remember Iran-Contra?)
If you want to focus on just one thing to hurt Empire, one thing that directly and materially affects damn near everything else, attack the trafficking. Not a move for the weak, timid, poor, or faithless; don't think you can Lone Wolf that shit.
Work at home. Get up to speed on what this is and how it works. Then tell your family, your friends, and your neighbors. Focus on how this directly and materially affects them, and then on what they can do here and now to deal with it- and (believe it or not) how local authorities (the ones you actually have any power over) can act.
You'll soon see if the networks have their hooks where you live, and if so how.
This is a part of Empire's core, something that you see everywhere and everywhen where Empire holds power. Hit this, and it will be forced to react; when it does, it can't keep up attention and resources elsewhere, meaning that you can force an opening through which you can attack Empire and defeat it with proper follow-through.
And, once you show that Empire bleeds, its aura of invicibility is gone.
Tucker Carlson went to El Salvador recently to attend the second inauguration of President Nayib Bukele. He got an interview with the present, embedded below.
President Nayib Bukele saved El Salvador. He may have the blueprint for saving the world. pic.twitter.com/92etFh7sSI
It is not just the West that has no leaders loyal to their people. It is almost every state in the world. El Salvador is the exception, the outlier, not the rule.
Therefore it is not unusual for many observers, like myself, to be pleasantly surprised to see that Bukele's claims are routinely confirmed by independent actors who go there to see things first-hand. The most reliable of these are private individuals, reporting to private groups, about such things as they have little (if any) incentive to lie or hedge due to both the venue and the audience not being public.
(Yes, I am in a few such groups. Yes I have seen a few such reports.)
One can critique specific moves he's made, but there is no honest gainsaying of the results. He took a country rotten with crime and related violence, such that the state had been rendered impotent, and reversed it overnight. Other countries in Central America, and now in South America, are taking notes and copying his techniques to achieve the same ends. (I wish them all the luck; they need it.)
One can be concerned that he will follow the route of many others and become a dictatorial tyrant himself, but the fact is that he has cleaned out a notoriously corrupt government and its agencies and replaced them with people of like-mind to himself: nationalists seeking the Common Good for the El Salvadoran nation.
He is, for now, proof that there is such a thing as a sovereign nation-state that is not in practice an Imperial satrapy or province. Empire does not concede defeat; it only regroups and awaits a new opportunity to strike (as we have just seen in Mexico with its President-Select), and Bukele plays a necessary-yet-dangerous game of using rival Imperial powers against each other (the Chinese collaborations in the country).
And he is a man that understands the Social Media and Public Relations game.
This interview with Tucker, his appearance at CPAC, his invitation of Argentina's Javier Milei to the inauguration, and his attacking of the Biden Administation (as a proxy for attacking Globohomo) in his Rhetoric are all calculated to provoke a response abroad. That response is to provoke friendly nationalists (i.e. us) to useful action, to do what it takes to seize, hold, and wield power as he did.
Bukele thinks, correctly, that a nationalist takeover of Globohomo-occupied states would result in new governments friendly to El Salvador. It would also result in incentivize for Salvadorans abroad to go home (more than they have), as much due to improved conditions at home as anything else, as the nationalist states would need to cooperate and collaborate to maintain their gains against Globohomo as well as prevent infiltration by the other two Imperial powers.
Everyone wins from this interview, just like everyone but Empire wins from Bukele being in office, and he's a man to watch and heed. More men like him succeeding means Empire falls.

It will have all the impact of the warrants from the International Criminal Court: Nothing.
The value of this development matters only insofar as it is a serious loss of Face for Israel that its media and influence operations will have to devote significant time and effort to address and contain.
The reality is that most of the world, being some form of Face Culture, will take this as a signal that it is permissible to go hostile on Israel and those aligned with it.
Those same parties, however, are either too weak to do any real harm to Israel or are already aligned with Israel (regardless of what the population there thinks).
In the short term, it's a nothingburger. In the long term, it depends on how Israel concludes its Gaza operations. It will remain a nothingburger if Israel wins in Gaza, cleans out the Palestinians, and completes its replacement and settlement of the area with its own kind. It will become the cause to begin shifting to open hostility, even violence, by a lot more people if Israel fails or faill short.
The reason, when stripped of the blather and bullshit, is as simple as this: most people live in Face Cultures for the reason in the meme.
It's no surprise that Face Cultures are so violent, even the ones thought of as "civilized", and as such most therein can't defend themselves. QED.
So yes, this report is theater. It is not useless theater. The distinction is in the signalling value.
By itself it's useless. It has to be done with follow-up moves to have any impact on the facts on the ground, and given that Ukraine is ongoing, Taiwan in the mix, the Red Sea being a hot warzone, and the US just getting one big step closer to a second civil war what that follow-up move will need to be is anyone's guess- but it can't be empty words. It has to involve violence targetted at Israel or its interests, and it has to be potent and massive. Talking is now worse than useless.
The Post-War Consensus is over. The new Age of War has begun. Empire must fall.
This is going to happen. It may not be Barron Trump, but that man already exists and many candidates are aware of the parallel now in the environment.
This includes Globohomo, whose Great Replacement is meant to be a prevenative measure by importing a new subject class as Clients to whom they are Patrons and Masters who will be used to suppress, harass, and ultimately exterminate the native nations of the West (and any other such state under threat of such a regime- looking at you, Japan and South Korea).
And yes, Europe, you're going to get your own- if you do it right, you'll have one for each of you.
Again, this is going to happen. The only useful move to make now is to ensure that Caesar is /ourguy/, because that maximizes the odds to make Empire fall.
I know who I would back, like it or not, because the alternative is exponentially worse.
Again, our Caesar already exists. He just hasn't seized power yet.
Alexander Macris wrote an article of use to dissidents this past week, "No, Really - What is to Be Done?" at Contemplations on the Tree of Woe.
Why is this of value to dissidents? Because he took the time to solve a persistent problem that dissidents deal with: entryism by the Enemy.
His conclusion will be familiar to many of you once you read it. He quotes his prior article, "The Seven Generations of Modern War", as part of this and I will do the same.
In a networkless insurgency, the splinter cells of the resistance would not communicate face-to-face, nor by cell phone, nor by internet contact. Instead they would rely only on stigmergy. Derived from the Greek words stigma (sign) and ergon (to act), stigmergy is the use of environmental mechanisms to coordinate the actions of independent agents. It is responsible for bird flocks and ant swarms...
[T]here are four mechanisms of stigmergy:
Stigmergic marking. Markers left by one splinter cell influences the actions of other splinter cells. Ants leave pheromones as markers for other ants. In the context of an insurgency, the news coverage of an attack would fill the same role.
Sematectonic signaling. Here, “environmental conditions influence the behavior of all actors in the system.” For instance, if an anti-Chinese splinter cell attacks Beijing’s Forbidden City, the Forbidden City will be given increased security thereafter. The increased security becomes a signal to other splinter cells not to attack there.
Quantitative signaling. Here, “the environmental signals are of a single scalable type. The size of a global guerilla attack on a given location can meter the scale of the security response.”
Qualitative signaling. “The environmental signals are of a varied type that change the message based on their combination. Different types of attacks on the same target will yield information on the type of attack that is most effective.”
While originally intended to "underscore the dilemmas and concerns that people would face if they relied too heavily on the new communications infrastructure,"[1] Stand Alone Complex (γΉγΏγ³γ・γ’γγΌγ³・γ³γ³γγ¬γγ―γΉ Sutando ArΕn Konpurekkusu?) eventually came to represent a phenomenon where unrelated, yet very similar actions of individuals create a seemingly concerted effort.
A Stand Alone Complex can be compared to the emergent copycat behavior that often occurs after incidents such as serial murders or terrorist attacks. An incident catches the public's attention and certain types of people "get on the bandwagon", so to speak. It is particularly apparent when the incident appears to be the result of well-known political or religious beliefs, but it can also occur in response to intense media attention. For example, a mere fire, no matter the number of deaths, is just a garden variety tragedy. However, if the right kind of people begin to believe it was arson, caused by deliberate action, the threat that more arsons will be committed increases dramatically.
What separates the Stand Alone Complex from normal copycat behavior is that there is no real originator of the copied action, but merely a rumor or an illusion that supposedly performed the copied action. There may be real people who are labeled as the originator, but in reality, no one started the original behavior. And in Stand Alone Complex, the facade just has to exist in the minds of the public. In other words, a potential copycat just has to believe the copied behavior happened from an originator - when it really did not. The result is an epidemic of copied behavior having a net effect of purpose. One could say that the Stand Alone Complex is mass hysteria over nothing - yet causing an overall change in social structure.
This is not unlike the concepts of memes (refer to the conversation between the major and the Puppet Master in the manga) and second-order simulacra. It also has ties to social theory, as illustrated in the work of Frederic Jameson and Masachi Osawa. The Slender Man phenomenon, in which the fictitious concept of a supernatural murderer went viral and has allegedly inspired real attacks, may be seen as an example of the Stand Alone Complex.
Macris, as the Comments in his article reveal, had no knowledge of Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex before I mentioned it to him.
He independently discovered the phenonemon and explained how it works in a manner that invites practical application. That is the value his article presents to those opposed to Empire.
By independently discovering this phenonemon, he validates the claim that it is real. If it is real, then it can be used. If it can be used, it can be weaponized.
And if it can be weaponized, it can be deployed to make Empire bleed.
You don't have to be a Deep State actor like Goda to make this happen, dissident. You just need to know how this thing works. Learn your tools, dissident, and stand.
