Phillip K. Dick, and Reality.

"Imagine being sentient but not alive. Seeing and even knowing, but not alive. Just looking out. Recognizing but not being alive. A person can die and still go on. Sometimes what looks out at you from a person's eyes maybe died back in childhood." "The Man in the High Castle" is an interesting book, and if one is a science fiction lover, then this book will keep you on edge for while, stimulate a wondering about "What if?"...

And even more…New Nazism?

"Their view; it is cosmic. Not of man here, a child there, but an abstraction: race, land. Volk. Land. Blut. Ehre. Not of honorable men but of Ehre itself, honor; the abstract is real, the actual is invisible to them. Die Gute, but not good men, this good man. It is their sense of space and time. They see through the here, the now, into the vast black deep beyond, the unchanging. And that is fatal to life. Because eventually there will be no life; there was once only the dust particles in space, the hot hydrogen gases, nothing more, and it will come again. This is an interval, ein Augenblick. The cosmic process is hurrying on, crushing life back into the granite and methane; the wheel turns for all life. It is all temporary. And they-these madmen-respond to the granite, the dust, the longing of the inanimate; they want to aid Nature." - Phillip K. Dick...

THE STRAUSSIANS

"The closer you examine it, the clearer it is that neoconservatism, in large part, is simply about enabling the most irredentist elements in Israel and sustaining a permanent war against anyone or any country who disagrees with the Israeli right. That's the conclusion I've been forced to these last few years. And to insist that America adopt exactly the same constant-war-as-survival that Israelis have been slowly forced into ... But America is not Israel. And once that distinction is made, much of the neoconservative ideology collapses." -- Andrew Michael Sullivan But America is not Israel. Or is it? Why is Israel allowed to be a nuclear power yet larger, much older nations, rather, countries that have existed longer than the present day Israel, with a lot more to protect, are forbidden from becoming a nuclear power. All roads lead to Rome it seems. Or is that Jerusalem.

Nord Stream 2: The pipeline that was never going to be…

"There will be no longer, a Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it." "We will ah, I promise you, we'll be able to do it." --Joe Biden ~~~~*~~~~ The timing of Joe Biden's sober statement, of February 7, 2022, couldn't have been better, "If Russia invades uh, that means tanks and troops crossing the uh, the border of Ukraine, again. Then uh, there will be uh, we there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2, we will bring an end to it." Direct to the point and with no side step of the chosen words, no uncle Joe, or "when I was a lad" intros to a long winded story about his past, no, directed like a guided missile " [...] we will bring an end to it!"...

Surveillance Balloons?

Seems the Chinese have a new surveillance weapon in their, arsenal of surveillance weapons, and they have many. Now among the myriads of cameras, and tracking devices. And they have hundreds of thousands if not millions of cameras in China. Chongqing, a city in China that has existed since 316 BC, has some 2.6 million cameras. They are the most surveilled city in the world. Advanced facial recognition assists this massive endeavor, and computers monitor that vast amount of data...

Olaf Scholz and Germany’s Re-militarization

"Again and again we have to repel the aggression of the collective West. it's incredible but it's a fact: we are again being threatened with German Leopard tanks with crosses on them, [...]" -- Vladimir Putin The Hybrid war brings us all into a world war, sleep walking into what has potential to be the very last war humanity fights...

Adolf, Olaf…You say potatoe, I say potato.

"Hybrid warfare: is a theory of military strategy, first proposed by Frank Hoffman, which employs political warfare and blends conventional warfare, irregular warfare, and cyberwarfare with other influencing methods, such as fake news, diplomacy, lawfare and foreign electoral intervention. By combining kinetic operations with subversive efforts, the aggressor intends to avoid attribution or retribution. The concept of hybrid warfare has been criticized by a number of academics and practitioners due to its alleged vagueness, its disputed constitutive elements, and its alleged historical distortions."...

Manufacturing Trust

"Trust is a currency!" *** In the opening of the WEF 2023, Crystal Awards Ceremony 2023 Klaus Schwab, the WEF chief, entered onto the stage and in his opening address paused and looked out to the audience. Stimulating curiosity, simulating concern maybe, and stating in the opening to the awards ceremony,

BREAKING NEWS: Al Gore seemingly unglued, informs ‘stunned’ Davos crowd of terrible atmospheric rivers and fucking climate rain bombs falling on our heads, while the oceans rise and drowns us all in dirty salty micro-plastic filled water.

...yes the oceans are boiling and the sky is falling, and chickens are coming home to roost. Turning in the last of my saved up booze bottles and beer cans, empty milk containers and water bottles with pennies to spare, I was able to book a cheap flight to Davos and take in some of Davos 2023.

THE END 1.0

Think how it wakes the seeds-

Woke once the clays of a cold star

Are limbs, so dear achieved, are sides

Full-nerved, still warm, too hard to stir?

Was it for this the clay grew tall?

-O what made fatuous sunbeams toil

To break earth’s sleep at all?
