A non-divisive issue!
The Federalist has found an issue that DOESN'T divide on party lines or gender lines or racial lines or any lines at all.

In response to Trump's totally fake "proposed" "executive" "order", which hasn't actually happened and won't happen and wouldn't change anything if it did happen, the Harris Poll conducted a survey.

Across all conceivable divides and boundaries, EVERYONE prefers traditional over modern architecture by a solid and constant 70 to 30 margin.

The survey was able to get honest answers because it didn't mention Trump. It just showed paired pictures of actual Federal buildings in both styles, and asked which you prefer.

The only people who like modernist architecture are modernist architects and the government agencies that hire modernist architects. Therefore, government agencies will continue hiring modernist architects to build horrible and useless buildings.

Still, it's genuinely interesting to find a question that hasn't yet been used by "both" "sides" to create the standard divisions. I'm sure "both" "sides" will get in gear now to form up the usual war.

... Come to think of it, The Federalist just DID get in gear, associating normal architecture with Orange Witch Powder. Your turn, D "side"!

  Huge point-missing
Interesting article on demography by Marcus Roberts at Mercatornet. (This isn't exactly AI point-missing, but MercatorNet is closely related to the websites I usually hammer for AI.)

Roberts notes that most of the major powers are aging fast and not reproducing. Normal people get calmer with age. Prison wardens and cops have always understood this, and have focused their attention on males under 30.

So the major powers SHOULD become calmer with age. But obviously USA is becoming more and more belligerent toward foreign countries and ESPECIALLY toward its own people. China has always tended toward internal slaughter, with several major episodes in the last century. Now Russia has suddenly rejoined the internal slaughter club, after 20 years of remarkable sanity and courage by Putin.

The youngest nations, mainly in Africa and South America, are NOT belligerent. Some of them have problems with internal strife and revolutions, but none of them are making external war.

Roberts misses a couple of HUGE points.

However, whether this ageing phenomenon will also make either China or Russia less belligerent is harder to predict. While the USA, as a democratic nation, may be constrained by its population’s wishes, as well as by its requirement to provide increasing funds for the electorally powerful “grey vote”, similar constraints do not apply as strongly to Beijing or Moscow.

"Democracy" is an utterly empty word. It never had any meaning. "Elections" never have the slightest effect. We use "Democracy" as a weapon against foreign countries we want to obliterate. We call them "authoritarian", and bomb them down to bedrock in order to "make them safe for Democracy". We've been doing this since 1890, except for the brief blessed lucid interval** from Harding through FDR. We're never "constrained by the public's wishes." On nearly all important issues, 2/3 of the public disagrees with the constant government policy of total obliteration. Only 1/3 enjoy mass murder, because they foolishly imagine that they are "on the same team" as the murderers.

And the grey vote is another empty myth. This is part of the old Tocqueville 47% Largesse ratshit. The government doesn't work that way. In recent decades Congress has cut SS benefits, and started taxing the benefits, with no hesitation. Congress DIDN'T raise the cap on earnings for YOUNG people who are still paying into the system. Raising the cap would offend the top 0.01% of rich fuckheads, so it can't possibly happen.

Psychopathic fuckheads have all the power regardless of age.

Most of the top psychopaths are way over 70. Trump, Soros, Hillary, Biden, Adelson, Bolton, Buffett, all the Federal blackrobes, all the leaders in Congress. Younger psychopaths are serving as governors and mayors and "public health" officials. They're just as bloodthirsty as the older psychopaths, but they're not currently in a position to influence foreign wars. When they finally move into the top positions, they will continue to obliterate everything.

= = = = =

** Also 20 years of internal and external peace. From 1921 to 1941 we were minding our own business and trying to improve our own nation. Just like Putin from 2000 to 2020. Is this a natural constant? Is there a natural timer on belligerent nations that rings an alarm and throws a war switch after 20 years of peace?

  Sane, of course
Continuing to look abroad for sanity, I wondered how AMLO is handling the Branded Swine Flu.

Unsuprisingly, he's sane.

“Nos interesa que estas compras de pánico no alteren y no induzcan este tipo de prácticas de especulación económica que efectivamente son reguladas y sancionadas por la Profeco”, aseveró el subsecretario.

Aseveró que únicamente funcionan como mecanismo de tranquilidad ante la incertidumbre y “no hay evidencia científica que demuestre que realmente sirven (…) es una pérdida de dinero, es una pérdida de esfuerzo que realmente no va a significar una protección”.

“No hay que tener medidas extraordinarias de comprar toda una reserva de este tipo de desinfectantes en aerosol. No existe tampoco una utilidad. El riesgo de transmisión de coronavirus en México es considerablemente bajo”, remarcó.

In short:

The risk of transmission in Mexico is low, and panic purchases of disinfectant are just security theater, a waste of money when dealing with an airborne virus. Don't panic.

Sane.

= = = = =

Broader thought: The US approach to ALL medical questions is crazy. I've noticed this in recent years after a couple of minor surgeries. I got no information from the doctor or hospital, and in one case got a printed sheet of instructions for the WRONG type of hernia surgery. Both times I had to use British sources on the web to get sane and accurate info. The destructive HIPPA shit blocks most information, and fear of lawsuits blocks the rest. "Reliable" web pages treat every single symptom as MEDICAL EMERGENCY CALL 911 NOW! Informal web pages and forums may include valid info, but you have to sort through various obsessions and conspiracies to find it. This week I've been fighting an ingrown toenail, which is about as prosaic and minor as you can get. Even so, the "reliable" websites say MEDICAL EMERGENCY CALL 911 NOW! After sorting through the conspiracies, the best advice seems to be (1) Neosporin (2) Let it grow out for a few weeks before cutting or filing again. So far the advice is working.

  More philosophy
Another smart bit of philosophy in today's news...

Rethinking plants vs humans.

The dances of plants with birds and plants with bees are well-known, but until now those relationships were assumed to be automatic and "evolved", which excluded humans because humans are assumed to have "free will".

A better overall view assumes EVERYONE is intelligent, and everyone is strategizing ways to accomplish their specific PURPOSES.

Plants made changes in their seeds after humans started to spread plants in our peculiar ways. The changes didn't make domestication easier, so they most likely weren't caused by our selective breeding.

Spengler suggests therefore that scholars studying plant domestication need to let go of preconceptions around human intentionality and agency to better understand plant evolution.

“Domestication is not a great human innovation; it is an extension of a natural process. “By modelling domestication as an equivalent process to evolution in the wild and setting aside the idea of conscious human innovation, we can more effectively study the questions of why and how this process occurred.”

An earlier philosopher with the same name had an equally broad natural view of human history, and made a pretty good prediction about the rising power of Deepstate. Unfortunately he took the wrong side, assuming that EU and Soros would produce a long period of harmonious "Caesarian socialism" starting in 2000. Shakespeare got it right. Deepstate is Brutus, not Caesar.

Via SkyNews, Boris has passed through Parliament the first ABSOLUTE LEGAL REQUIREMENT for Brexit to occur Jan 31. He removed all the wiggles and options and poison pills that had been in previous proposals.

I was wrong, and I'm damned glad I was wrong.

I almost wish I had placed a public bet, so I could pay some real money as punishment for being unnecessarily cynical.

Bravo to Boris for GETTING SHIT DONE, for the first time in three years. Bravo to Farage, who has been pushing ONE CONSTANT PURPOSE for many years, using all sorts of devious and SUCCESSFUL tactics to shape the government toward the will of the people.

Most of all, BRAVO to the PEOPLE of Britain for sticking with their LEGALLY EXPRESSED INTENTIONS. The ghost of Churchill is proud. We shall nevah nevah nevah stop voting for Brexit.

  Breaking Manweller? Maybe.
An interesting observation, related to Manwellerism, from a ZH writer.

The UK now has leverage over the EU. For the past three years, a disunited UK government has been met by a united EU. Now, the roles will be reversed. The UK has a strong majority government – effectively first in ten years – while the EU’s division on how to approach the UK will be exposed.

When a leader is GETTING SHIT DONE, he has 2/3 of the people with him. Boris hasn't actually done anything yet, but he managed to convince 2/3 of the voters to take his side. How did he convince them? By promising to serve BRITAIN instead of a bizarre combination of external crazies. Now that he has 2/3, he's free to do the right thing. Will he? Still unclear. I'd LOVE to be proved wrong.

France and Germany and US are still in total stalemate, with leaders depending on a weird coalition of meaningless trivia. Merkel and Macron and Trump are unable and unwilling to solve any real problems FOR THE NATION, because solving a real problem might dislodge one pebble in the pile of junk that barely sustains their non-ruling coalitions.

  Morales wins again
Speaking of defending a country's own people....

Evo Morales just won re-election. Not really surprising. He broke Graybill's Law. Bolivia had been one of our captive cocaine colonies. Evo decided to develop Bolivia's HONEST skills instead of CIA's criminal skills. He nationalized the mineral industry and used its profits to build infrastructure and services for his people. Bolivia's economy is thriving and growing, on its own terms for its own people.

Evo and AMLO are similar. Both of them talk like Gaians and act like FDR.



Deepstate doesn't like breakaways, especially when they succeed. Will Bolivia be next, now that we screwed up the coup in Venezuela?

More personal question: I wonder how it feels to live in a country where the government is trying to improve the lives of ordinary people? I wouldn't know. I was born in USA after 1946, so I've always lived in a country where the government ruins and mocks and slaughters ordinary people. The water in the fishbowl is cyanide.

  2/3 holds steady for AMLO
I hadn't paid attention to AMLO lately. Decided to see if his 2/3 approval was still holding up.

Yup. I shouldn't have worried. This website keeps track of polls roughly every month. AMLO started with 67%, went up to 90%, and has now settled back to a steady 67%.

"On top of that, the coalition headed by his MORENA party holds a majority in both houses of Congress and most of Mexico’s 32 states."

Leaders who want to rule with the support of the people should be trying to learn from his example. AMLO doesn't have the unique non-reproducible charisma of Salvini. He's certainly not a riveting and electrifying orator. He simply LOVES his people, and he shows his LOVE in concrete and constructive ways.

  2/3 and Boris
An interesting shift shows up in the public statements of UK vs EU, as seen in the pattern of headlines at Politico.eu. I'm super-cautious about believing public statements, but nevertheless:

1. It appears that Germany now wants to help Boris achieve Brexit, and other EU leaders are pulling in the same direction.

2. Only Corbyn is firmly opposed to Brexit now.

3. It also appears that Boris is actually SERIOUS about achieving Brexit. He has eliminated some obstacles (created by May) that prevented British businesses from negotiating new contracts with their EU counterparts.

Must admit that 3 surprised me. I was assuming that Boris, like Trump, was a useless noisemaker. I was apparently wrong.

But the EU change isn't surprising. Bullies give way when they realize their victims are SERIOUS and immovable. May was not serious. She spent three years fucking around with endless meaningless details, solely concerned with pleasing one or two MPs who were crucial to her narrow plurality. She was only working for herself, not for the country.

It's the 2/3 rule again. Leaders who GET SHIT DONE don't need to worry about preserving narrow pluralities and coalitions. Leaders who GET SHIT DONE have the firm support of 2/3 of the country, an overwhelming majority.

  Nicholas and Putin
The non-Sorosian leaders of today's world are DOERS and TRUTH-TELLERS. From Putin to AMLO to Salvini to Mahathir to Duterte, all of them are GETTING SHIT DONE for the PEOPLE of their own countries, and all of them are TELLING THE TRUTH about what they're doing.

It's an old recipe for good leaders. Say what you're going to do, explain it fully and truthfully, and then DO IT. Works every time. Those leaders are approved and re-elected by 70 or 80 percent.

Duterte is the extreme test case. He's telling truths that are deeply troubling and insulting to the Pope-loving Filipinos, but because he's GETTING SHIT DONE, the people want him to continue GETTING SHIT DONE.**

Sorosian leaders get ABSOLUTELY NOTHING DONE, and emit a bizarre ever-changing word-salad of incomprehensible delusions and garble.

= = = = =

In reading old tech history I've noticed that the Tsars of the telegraph era, especially Nicholas 1, had the same qualities as Putin. Nicholas encouraged new technology to advance the interests of Russia. He tried to set up a national telegraph network in 1816. The invention wasn't ready then. Later he established a full system when the tech was mature.

Modern globalist writers dismiss and denounce Nick in EXACTLY the same words they use for Putin. This made me suspect that he was similar to Putin in other ways.

Tech writers in the 1850's hadn't yet been infected by Wilson or Soros, so they had a clearer view of the TRUTH-TELLING tsar.

From Shaffner again, p 790 of PDF. This is an overlong quote, but I can't condense without losing the tone and purpose.

The telegraphs of Russia are all government lines and under the minister of public buildings, ways, and communications. The lines were built by private contractors, and surrendered to the government from time to time, as completed. There have been no efforts to extend the telegraph under private companies, nor is there any probability that such will be the case.

To some readers many of the rules governing the transmission of dispatches on the lines in Russia, and other parts of Europe, may be considered as too severe and arbitrary. Practically such is not the case. In Russia the lines are open to individuals for their private business. Commercial affairs are not restricted. Full liberty and protection are given to every person in the transmission of domestic, social or business dispatches. It is to prevent the abuse of those privileges that the government has adopted the rules, which to the American reader may be regarded as too stringent.

The dispatches transmissible over the telegraph, shall be divided into five categories, viz.:

1st. Orders from, and reports to, His Majesty the Emperor. Dispatches to and from royal families.

2d. Government dispatches, such as from the commander-in-chief, minister of foreign affairs, military governor-generals, governor-generals, military and civil governors, military commanders, and reports to the government.

3d. Dispatches of the administration of the telegraphs.

4th. Dispatches of the minister of public buildings, ways, and communications.

5th. Private dispatches, without regard to rank or condition. (The private dispatches of public functionaries belong to this class.)

Dispatches containing [stock] exchange news may contain ciphers, but the sender must explain the meaning of each cipher to the administration, and sign the same, giving a satisfactory guarantee as to responsibility.

In no case whatever can a political dispatch be received.

Government dispatches are not within the control of the station officers of the telegraph, and they cannot be stopped.

Private dispatches containing anything contrary to the laws, or incompatible with the public good, or containing objectionable language, cannot be transmitted. All such dispatches are strictly forbidden to be sent, and it is the duty of the officer of the station to transmit them forthwith to the minister of communications. Payment for them is to be refused.

Is this "repressing dissent"? By the standards of modern rights-mongers it is. The only difference is that modern "free" media DON'T TELL YOU THE TRUTH about what you are allowed to send. We use the Hundred Flowers principle. Delude people into thinking they can say anything, then jail them for saying the wrong thing as defined by this microsecond's arbitrary rules.

When you think you're participating in "free speech", you aren't inclined to leave the system. You continue to provide data points and blackmail material for Deepstate. When you know exactly which kinds of speech are allowed in the system, serious dissidents can avoid generating blackmail data.

Note Shaffner's clear understanding of the RULE OF LAW, which you won't find in any modern publication on "either" "side".

Nicholas and Putin are LAWFUL rulers. They tell you the laws, and explain why the laws are in place, so you can behave within the laws.

= = = = =

** Footnote: The Duterte experiment firmly disproves the standard globalist propaganda that Populism means "telling the people what they want to hear." Duterte specifically tells his people everything they don't want to hear, but he's giving them SECURITY, which is the MOST IMPORTANT DUTY OF GOVERNMENT. Criminals want freedom. Normal people want to be FREE FROM CRIMINALS.

  AMLO y el AI
Still in Century Clickback mode!

AMLO is showing off a small business that would have looked the same in 1500 AD. Everything in the scene (except the plastic drinking glass) would have been familiar to Montezuma or Don Quixote.




The system is a rolling mill that squeezes juice from sugar cane. It's powered by advanced voice-responsive and gesture-responsive autonomous AI. (Animal Intelligence).

Translating the caption:

Strengthening the economy by supporting artisans, small producers and microentrepreneurs, is the same or more important in job creation and development, than only betting on large automated corporations.

Or putting it my way: If you want to develop your nation's skills, you need to make room for SIMPLE skills.

This job would be unimaginable in UK or US, where regulators act as hitmen for the Bezos mob. We take great pains to prevent small entrepreneurs from competing with Bezos.

AMLO is practicing Natural Law in the economic realm.

NEVER ATTACK. ALWAYS DEFEND.

Don't attack honest work with regulations. Defend the honest workers against corporate bullies.

Semirelevant sidenote: I know nothing about horses, but this horse looks well-nourished, clean, contented, and well-groomed. The wooden machinery is the opposite.

Watching one of AMLO's events where he introduces his pension system to a town or county. Thinking as usual about Mexico's strong culture, and AMLO's well-earned confidence. When you serve the people, the people support you.

A nice little symbol of a secure culture and a secure leader:



Can you imagine the Secret Service allowing that belt buckle anywhere on the planet, let alone next to the president????

I looked at the transcript to see if this fellow was identified, but I couldn't really tell which of the names was his. As it happens, AMLO's speech was making the same point.

There is no longer a Presidential Security Staff.

Do you know how many security guards cared for the president of Mexico?

Eight thousand soldiers. Not even Trump is cared for by eight thousand soldiers. That elite body has disappeared and now these soldiers have become part of the Secretariat of Defense to take care of the people. The president is taken care of by the people. He who fights for justice has nothing to fear.

I hope and pray that he's right.

As for "not even Trump", he's just barely correct on that number, but Trump is getting ready to blow through it:

President Donald Trump's fiscal 2020 budget proposal seeks $2.3 billion to fund the U.S. Secret Service, an increase of 7 percent over the estimated spending for 2019 and some 15 percent above actual spending for 2018.

The budget summary issued by the White House last week says it seeks to hire 177 additional special agents, officers, and professional staff for the agency. But the budget detail released this week says that overall Secret Service full-time equivalent employees will rise by 313 employees, jumping from 7,334 in the 2019 budget to 7,647 in the 2020 budget.

The vector comparison is sharp. AMLO eliminates Secret Service, Trump expands it.

(Interestingly, the photograph preserves a hand-penned emphasis on the part about FDR.)

= = = = =

President Trump: Social problems are not resolved by blockades or coercive measures.

The first president of Mexico, Benito Juarez, maintained excellent relations with the heroic Lincoln. Later, during the expropriation of petroleum, FDR understood the deep reasons that impelled Cardenas to act in favor of our sovereignty. For sure, FDR was a titan of liberty.

You know also that we are fulfilling our responsibility to avoid, in the range of possibility and without violating human rights, emigration from our nation. Remember that, just a little while ago, the Mexicans had no need to assist the US, [??] and that migration should be optional, not forced. We are combating corruption, the main problem of Mexico RIGHT NOW. Our nation is being converted into a power with a social dimension. Our citizens should be able to work and be happy where they were born, where their families and customs reside.


Specifically, citizen President:

I propose deepening the dialog, trying basic alternatives to the problem of migration. And PLEASE remember that I don't lack valor, that I'm not a coward, but always act on principle. I believe in a politics that was developed to avoid confrontation and war. I don't believe in the Law of the Talon, the 'tooth for tooth and eye for eye', because if we go that way, we will be toothless and eyeless.

Finally, I propose that you instruct your functionaries, if it's not TOO inconvenient for them, to meet with representatives of our government who are leaving for Washington tomorrow, aiming to achieve an agreement of benefit to both nations.

= = = = =

I've undoubtedly missed a hundred meanings, but I'm pretty sure I captured the tone.

Trump's brainless NYC fuckheads would do well to remember that AMLO is not a coward, not easily bowled over. You're dealing with the FDR of this generation, a true titan of liberty; and like FDR he has the full support of his people because he fully supports his people.

Polistra used to celebrate France as a country that chose its own path and did many things the right way. Under Hollande and Macron, she didn't find anything to celebrate. France became just another brainless slave of Soros.

Now there's a reason to celebrate again.



LePen's party has DEFEATED Macron's party in the EU election!

Looking at constants and variables:

Constant 1: In countries where Populists are already in charge, the Populists also won the EU representation. (Italy, Poland, Hungary)

Constant 2: In countries where EU is good for the country, the EU party continues in power locally and in EU parliament. (Holland, Krautland)

Variables: In countries where the EU is bad for the country BUT the existing government is pro-EU, the voters are REJECTING the existing bad government. (MASSIVELY in England, meaningfully in France and Greece)

In short: Democracy is working. Where the ruling party agrees with the people, the ruling party continues to rule. Where the ruling party has fucked up, the ruling party is rejected.

Important sidenote: BBC video shows that the balloting is ALL PAPER. Millions of votes on PAPER are being tabulated and finalized by hand within HOURS after the close of polling. There is NO EXCUSE for machine or electronic voting. Electronic voting is SLOWER than paper, and offers VASTLY GREATER OPPORTUNITY for hacking and corruption.

During his campaign, Cortizo, a US-educated former agriculture minister, vowed to clean up Panama's political scene, following a corruption scandal involving Brazilian engineering firm Odebrecht, and the Panama Papers leak of millions of documents detailing tax evasion by the world's wealthy.

Other issues included rising unemployment, the education system's decline, and the state of the capital Panama City's water service and garbage collection. Panama is a strategic location for commerce in the region, anchored by the heavily trafficked Paama Canal shipping route and a recently expanded international airport. The Central American nation is one of the world's fastest-growing economies and has recently attracted increased interest from China.

Idiot DiMaio continues to serve his party instead of the nation, even though he's nominally in charge of the nation.

He's complaining that people with unfashionable beliefs are supporting Salvini's Lega.

This is a good sign, not a bad sign.

Look back at the '30s. FDR knew that the inequality spawned in the '20s and expanded by the crash had left large parts of the population vulnerable to radicalism. He faced major movements with "left" and "right" flavors, both tending toward revolution.

FDR solved the radical problem by solving the REAL problem.

He relieved the inequality and provided USEFUL WORK for ordinary men. The movements of both flavors faded away. Americans, INCLUDING UNFASHIONABLE PEOPLE, were loyal enough to voluntarily fight a hard war to defend the country.

Salvini is taking the same approach. Italy has problems with inequality, plus Sorosian invasions of migrants explicitly intended to spawn radicalism so Juncker can slaughter the Deplorables. Many people were NATURALLY turning radical and acquiring revolutionary beliefs, because THIS WAS JUNCKER'S PURPOSE.

Salvini is solving the REAL problems of Soros invasion and Soros inequality. He has already halted the invasion, and is expanding Italy's trade connections away from EU to break Juncker's monopoly.

Result: Radicals are starting to support the government instead of preaching revolution.

Shouldn't be surprising. A leader who SERVES HIS OWN PEOPLE AND GETS SHIT DONE inspires loyalty. When 2/3 of the people are with you, there's much less room for revolution.

One other question, not included as part of the scale, asked survey respondents which of two statements best describes the scientific method: That it produces findings meant to be continually tested and updated over time, or that it identifies unchanging core principles and truths. Two-thirds of Americans (67%) say the scientific method is designed to be iterative, producing findings that are continually tested and updated, while 15% say the method produces unchanging core principles and truths, and 17% say they are not sure

Pew astonishingly treats the iterative answer as correct, and I'm even more astonished that 2/3 of Americans ALSO treat it as correct. We are CONSTANTLY BOMBARDED with the unchanging core principles answer. Exactly 100.000000000000000000000% of all public discussion of "science" instructs us VIOLENTLY AND LETHALLY that theories are absolute facts. When official "science" reaches a conclusion, it is DEFINITIVE AND FINAL AND ETERNALLY UNCHANGING, and anyone who doubts even the tiniest picopicofragment of ABSOLUTE TRUTH must be sent to the ovens NOW.

The poll result will be DIScouraging to the public voices of "science", who must work even harder to pack the ovens with deniers.

How do you get 2/3? It's easy. Serve the people of your OWN country. Don't serve international corporations or international organizations or Soros. Get shit done. Don't fuck around for years and years and years with fake "laws" and fake "orders" and fake "walls" and fake "brexits".

AMLO has been consistently serving the people of his OWN country, as Natural Law requires. He has so much trust and confidence in the people that he's taking a highly unusual step. He advocated, and now he's celebrating, the approval of a constitutional amendment that makes it easier to punish presidents for corruption.

El presidente Andrés Manuel López Obrador celebró la reciente aprobación en el Senado de la República de la reforma al artículo 108 constitucional para que el presidente en funciones pueda ser juzgado por actos de corrupción.

“Esto es un gran avance. Los conservadores ya no podrán dar marcha atrás. Es un paso adelante en la Cuarta Transformación de la vida pública del país. Son hechos, no palabras. Se acaba con la impunidad constitucional”, afirmó el mandatario.
