What Happens on the World Theater Stage is Not What It Is

Image
Today fine conservative influencer Charlie Kirk was shot dead at one of his very popular "Change My Mind" type college campus events. It was absolutely shocking news to most everyone -- so accomplished at such a young age, he got deep into the most visible platforms of the culture war discourse yet did so with graciousness and respect no matter who he spoke with or about. He did want to tell the truth about things, and yes, it may have pushed the boundaries of the Overton Window. Everyone will say something about why it happened, much of which is meaningless, really. It is just part of the theater created to keep imaginations catastrophized. Ironically tomorrow is the anniversary of one of the most major of these events, 9/11. Sadly it appeared Kirk had his carotid artery shattered by the bullet, exactly the kind of wound suffered by Martin Luther King Jr. at the hand of a sniper. Thing is, as most good World System factualists (sometimes unfairly tarred as conspiracy theoris...

Astroturfing the Best Devotion to Rome

It has been a good week since I published my latest home page piece , and I usually don't wait this long to put up a blog post to mention it. But work has been busy, I've been worn out, and I've even caught something so I'm just laying low for the weekend. There were half-a-dozen things I thought about putting into a blog post to augment that home page effort . But I'll put it on hold for now. I'm just blogging to blog about it, direct your attention to it if you are interested, and I'll just get to other things later. Some of my reluctance to get too deeply into it is yet again relates to my feelings that after saying the same thing a hundred times yet looking out upon the wretched stupidity that still happens pretty much everywhere, well, you know. It does get very discouraging. Sometimes being relegated to a trollee is just not fun. I know I haven't got the readership to be much of an influencer, but I always pray that those who do come across my mini...

The Great Big Club Owns You

Image
Wait! I forgot to add a critical component of The Great Big Club George Carlin famously riffed on a number of years ago in his viral routine. In my last post I'd mentioned that all the rich and powerful people are in a big club and "You aren't in it." I'd added that the club is really the Roman Catholic Empire and that whether you like it, tolerate it, or revile it to the point of wanting to blow it up, you're in it if you aren't in The Kingdom instead.  The emphasis was on the fact that even if you are part of the noble crusade against the evil oppressive imperialist fascist hegemony, you are a Roman Catholic,  merely because you are being delightfully played to do all the resisting and rebelling and obsessively intoxicating revolutioning so many thrill to do because they absolutely despise having their concupiscence called out by any judgmentalist forces. And Rome is there to respond in kind. "Don't box me in, copper!" -- Rome gleefully re...

We All Though Really Just Really Really Want To Be In The Great Big Club

I was listening to a Greg Koukl podcast interview with fellow apologist Tim Barnett and it was all about the "AI." Very good stuff, there is always something new to discover not just about what should be called SPIT (Superfast Processing Information Technology) but how people are thinking about it and more importantly being captivated by what the Romanist mandarins are doing with it. Tim brought up something about it that relates to the seriously entrenched echo chambers the whole chatbot obsession is creating -- perfectly what the Jesuits want to happen!  -- everyone just living comfortably in their own "cognitive universes," as another pundit called them.  One of the examples Tim shared was how some detractors will incessantly post the notion that Christianity was the most oppressive, imperialist, just-plain-rotten thing that ever happened, you know the trope. Tim added in his own web efforts Red Pen Logic  he has had to set the record straight with all the great ...

The AI's Make-Believe is the Roman Catholic Dominion's Standard Policy Dogma

Image
I simply have to put up something of a blog post to make note of a video I saw on my social media feed. Here is a screenshot of a part of it, the part where the federal government needs its bank to print up more money so it can continue to virtue-signal with impunity. And yes, of course, get filthy rich doing so. Some guy very likely used Google's Veo3 to make an "AI" generated Nelson Aldrich figure and his background cohorts, and yes, it looks amazingly convincing. For about two minutes Mr. Aldrich regales us with the veritable realities of what the Federal Reserve does actually do. Indeed it is extraordinarily wicked, interminably eviscerating the value assignment of the industrious and productive efforts of regular people. Oh how infuriating this is! Of course this video ends with a promotion for bitcoin. No, sorry, that's  the part that is infuriating, watching these crypto con artists continue to brazenly hawk their meaningless computer numbers to do exactly the ...

Institutional Blackmail Has Been Standard Operating Procedure for Millennia

I recently found this profound comic panel meme, and it just says volumes about how I feel in the depths of my soul. I do take some time examining the World System and its machinations, because in some ways it does make my dwelling in The Kingdom that much more meaningful. I do sometimes think about how difficult it is to observe what is truly going on with that sorrowful destruction, and to behold so many so foolishly oblivious to it. But then again, that's a lot of it. I know why. Even sadder is that so many out there think they've got it, think they do know about the World and what it does. Nah. They're just like that beloved Catholicist influencer Augustine... I just want to be doing good and wholesome things in the City of God ... Except that the "City of God" is just the good and wholesome Roman Catholic simulacra that is really about head-cracking evildoers, and every single one of us is an evildoer .  Ahh thank goodness there is the City of God law enforce...

Floods, The Main Thing

Image
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. (Proverbs 1:7) The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." (Proverbs 14:1) I'd written a bit about some things people could do to employ the best knowledge with the best wisdom and... I kind of felt I was just sharing things people already know. It wasn't that what I shared wasn't meaningful, but so many look at those extraordinarily profound truth rules and shrug, "So what." Yeah, this is kind of why I often feel resigned that all I am doing is what I've called trollee'ing.  There are just so many lethally stupid things out there in the world it doesn't matter how powerfully lucid you are in your response, it just doesn't seem to matter. Here's a good one, recently, I just could not help but be a fine trollee!  The guy who does The Babylon Bee  directed everyone to a social media post from a gentleman who blapped, "What we discover...
