Flutter of the Butterfly's Wings

-------------------------------------------------------

I am part of an email group, and have attended meetings and social gatherings with this group in New York for a number of years. We discuss mostly socio-political issues, mostly centered around the United States, and with my contribution, Canada. A few times, I have presented the Ethiopian point of view, my idea being that the Christian country has more in common with the West than with the East.

Recently, I presented a proposition that we should support the PM of Ethiopia, Abiy Ahmed, and his efforts to build this greater Ethiopia, in the tradition of the Ethiopian emperors, up to and including the late Emperor Haile Selassie.

One member of the group would have none of this, and my earnest efforts and my individual pursuits, from my art, to my Reclaiming Beauty (and Camera Lucida) 10+ years of documentations, stories, photographs, and views.

She accused me of "narcissism"  - imagine, a supposedly honorable member of this group stooping to name-calling. She demanded to be removed from this list, and so she has been.

I wrote about Mullarkey here, about five years ago. She's a painter, and I said about her work:

Her style is stark and bleak...

I have been called worse than a narcissist! But this has only built a thick skin, and I continue with my endeavors and ideas. Who is one "email" acquaintance to dictate my ideas and my thoughts? I have never personally met this woman, who has only recently asked to be included in the group. Late to come, first to go! Good riddance.

Those intuitive and intelligent should realize that what I say makes sense. The world is now constructed in "global" terms. A small country in the north of Africa could be the butterfly wing that starts the wave of crashes around the world.

About 70 years ago, a similar event occurred, where Italian Fascists decided that they would complete their earlier entry into Ethiopia, which was met in defeat under the now celebrated Adwa Victory, and take that land as part of their late-comers colonial swoop.

They failed again, but in a different way. Ethiopia was eventually liberated, with men from all over the country taking arms to fight this enemy. But, Haile Selassie's appeal to the impotent League of Nations (precursor to the United Nations) was ignored, and the world sided with war, with devastating effects of the Second World War.

Sometimes faith in your message is what you need, or to be more precise, what you are obligated to have. Other messengers have come up short, wrong, and even pernicious. I have a long history, both at Reclaiming Beauty, and at Camera Lucida, of siding with Truth.

Shame.

"personal bravery in the face of threats"

Via The Thinking Housefwife:
Young Woman Refuses Communist Salute
August 26, 2020



A WOMAN in a D.C. restaurant was reportedly taunted by (paid?) mob for refusing to show the Communist fist and to shout “White silence is violence” slogan.

A great example of personal bravery in the face of threats.

By the way, have you noticed, masks make it easier for people to become thuggish or just plain rude? Duh! Masks are meant for outlaws!

Pro-Liberty, Pro-Freedom and Pro-Law



Peggy Hall and Dr. Pam Popper discussing the COVID-Control.

From a comment on the video interaction:
Yes, good good call changing the main role, from "anti mask" to PRO Civil Rights. That's exactly the right direction. Pro. Not anti. This is a world of "attraction". Pro pro pro.... Yes yes yes.

"Amnesty International apologies over inappropriate video campaign on Ethiopia"

Amnesty International apologies over inappropriate video campaign on Ethiopia
Borkena.com
August 18, 2020

Amnesty International apologized on Monday for posting video content that defends the “Oromo Protest.” The apology came just days after Ethiopians in social media campaigned (using the hashtag #dishonest amnesty) protesting Amnesty practices as related to activism on human rights issues in Ethiopia.

In a Twitter message on August 17, the organization said that “Amnesty International has always supported the human rights of all Ethiopians. We remain conscious of Ethiopia’s complex and evolving political climate. Our comms team recognizes the negative impact of our recent media output and apologises for posting it in error.”

Furthermore, it said that “Amnesty’s commitment to impartial and evidence based reporting underlies all of our outputs and we will continue to advocate for justice for all Ethiopians.”

Ethiopian Ambassador to the United States, Fitsum Arega, reacted to Amnesty International’s apology. He tweeted “Read Amnesty International’s apology. I expected high professional standards from a major global rights group. I hope this situation will be a teachable moment for AI. I trust AI going forward will strive for impartiality, fairness& neutrality in reporting on #Ethiopia.”

The rights group came under increasing criticism from Ethiopian activists over what many Ethiopians describe as biased activism in Ethiopia. When more than 240 non-Oromo and followers of Ethiopian Orthodox Christians were massacred by a mob mobilized by individuals and organizations (like Oromia Media Network) that link themselves to “Oromo Protest.”

The Shifty Pope

Pope Francis' Political Plea:

In this era, when popes become politicians, and enter the worship houses of alien religions, Pope Francis sent this "request" to the Ethiopians and the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam:
Pope Francis on Saturday called for dialogue between Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan, urging them not to let a dispute over a dam on the Nile lead to conflict.

"I invite all parties involved to continue on the path of dialogue so that the eternal river will continue to be a source of life, which unites and does not divide, which nurtures friendship, prosperity and fraternity and not enmity, misunderstanding and conflict," [Source]
Video from the Vatican, Pope Francis' entry into the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam politics, starting at the 12 minutes 40 seconds point:



Pope Francis gave this political plea during his Angelus message for Assumption Day, the most important Catholic feast dedicated to the Virgin Mary.

Liberty, Taxes and Hypocrisy


Delegates applaud as Chinese President Xi Jinping arrives for the opening session of China's National People's Congress (NPC) at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, May 22, 2020. [Source]

I've been reading Ron Paul's website to get updates on COVID-19. Paul is a medical doctor. He is also a Libertarian.

According to Encyclopaedia Britannica. He...
served as a Republican member of the U.S. House of Representatives (1976–77, 1979–85, 1997–2013) and who unsuccessfully ran as the 1988 Libertarian presidential candidate. He later sought the Republican nomination for president in 2008 and 2012.

[...]

He retired from the House in January 2013, at the age of 77.
Here is Paul's political position on defense on his Wikipedia entry:
Paul has advocated for a noninterventionist foreign policy. He advocates withdrawal from the United Nations, and from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, for reasons of maintaining strong national sovereignty.

He voted for the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists in response to the September 11 attacks, but suggested war alternatives such as authorizing the president to grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal targeting specific terrorists. An opponent of the Iraq War and potential war with Iran, he has also criticized neoconservatism and U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, arguing that both inadvertently cause terrorist reprisals against Americans, such as the 9/11 attacks. Paul has stated that "Israel is our close friend" and that it is not the place of the United States to "dictate how Israel runs her affairs".
And here is Paul's latest statement on US-China relations, under the article Empire is the Root of US-China Hostilities [Source: Ron Paul's official website]:
Meanwhile, China was doing things completely differently. A couple of decades ago, the Chinese communist regime began loosening its economic restrictions on the economic activity of the Chinese people. Consequently, there was tremendous amount of wealth accruing in society and also growing standards of living. That, in turn, increased tax revenues for the Chinese government.

Thus, while the US government was making friends around the world through force of arms and hostility, the Chinese government and Chinese citizens were making friends around the world through investments, grants, and loans. This included countries in Latin America, where the US Empire has left a dark legacy of military intervention.

Moreover, war weakens a nation from within. As the US Empire was now engaged in a policy of perpetual war, it knew that China, although still weighed down with a large amount of socialism, was gaining strength.

That’s when US officials knew that they had a problem on their hands — an empire problem. That’s when they, and their supporters in the mainstream press, began referring to China as a “rival,” an “opponent,” an “adversary,” a “competitor,” aand even an “enemy.”

At that point, the objective became to strike at China before it grew any stronger and threatened the worldwide dominion and hegemony of the US Empire.

That’s what President Trump’s trade war was all about — to bring China down a peg, even if it hurt American producers and consumers in the process. That’s also what US sanctions on China and Chinese enterprises, such as Huawei are all about. It’s what the criminal prosecution of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou is all about. It’s why Trump is considering banning the Chinese social network TikTok from the United States.

Of course, the Covid-19 crisis did US officials a big favor by adding significantly to China’s economic woes.
This is extraordinary, coming from a "libertarian":
Libertarianism (from Latin: libertas, meaning "freedom") is a political philosophy and movement that upholds liberty as a core principle. Libertarians seek to maximize political freedom and autonomy, emphasizing individualism, freedom of choice and voluntary association. [Source]
In criticizing American politics, Paul chose a closed, communist country, whose leaders have not denounced their Communist principles.

The "liberty" he is talking about is "tax freedom." Here's an excerpt from the article Empire is the Root of US-China Hostilities:
A couple of decades ago, the Chinese communist regime began loosening its economic restrictions on the economic activity of the Chinese people. Consequently, there was tremendous amount of wealth accruing in society and also growing standards of living. That, in turn, increased tax revenues for the Chinese government.
Who exactly is benefiting from these "increased tax revenues?" The rural communities?

Forget all the other activities, including holding hostage Canadian citizens, as a retaliation against Canada for arresting Chinese spy, Huawei's Meng Wanzhou.

Paul comes from a stance of hating America enough that he is willing to sell out to the Chinese. Paul hypocritically writes about American "imperialism" when he neglects to inform his readers that China, for the past ten years or so, has been out on an imperialistic mission in Africa through Ethiopia, building bridges, roads, housing and commercial complexes, and other infrastructure, under China's "One Belt, One Road" global strategy, as a means to infiltrate the country, and the rest of Africa. Most of these programs are "funded" through "loans," more precisely, unpayable loans, with built-in country asset seizures, provided by the Chinese government.

Here are some hard questions:
China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is nothing if not vague. Is it a blanket term for all Chinese overseas economic, social and political activities? Is it a specific set of coordinated policy that’s exclusive to Beijing-led international endeavors? What projects are officially Belt and Road? Where do the corridors actually go? What countries are truly participating? Nearly seven years into the initiative, we are still asking these questions as Beijing attempts to wrangle back its message from private firms and enterprising governments that have unscrupulously been using the Belt and Road brand for their own gains, dragging its reputation through the proverbial mud and putting the future of the initiative in jeopardy.
[Source: China is Losing Support for its Belt and Road Initiative]
If China cannot even assure the vast majority of its population the semblance of a good life, free from toil and broken backs, what business has it "doing business" in Africa?

Had Paul and his ilk more love for their own country, for America, then covert giants like China would have not found a foothold in the African continent. Instead, America could have found strong allies in Africa.

Still, in an optimistic note, with all the global issues hovering around China, and all the failed, incomplete, and unpayable BRI project initiated through (very) high interest loans, astute African leaders are looking elsewhere for their alliances.

Paul left medicine to become a politician. Had he not, he would have been an invaluable member of the anti-COVID voice. Instead, he touts the COVID-strategy of China where most likely the COVID "virus" was originally manufactured. And where the majority of Chinese, COVID or no COVID, remain in poverty.

Trump is Getting Back on Track



Here is the full transcript for: Fox News Sunday interview with President Trump, if the video is no longer available.

Below, I have posted what I think are the important points.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

President Trump refused to be bullied by fake-new Fox reporter Chris Wallace, who questioned him on the new book out about his family, by his niece, who went on a mission to destroy Trump, and especially Trump's father.

Here is the telling part during the interview, around 31 minutes:
My father liked to win. My father was a very good man, he was a strong man. It's disgraceful that she said that. She was not exactly a family favorite...She writes a book that so stupid and so vicious. And it's a lie.

My father was a great wonderful man.

It hurts me more about attacking my father [than attacking me], not being kind to my mother. I have a mother who was like a saint. She was incredible. She was an incredible woman. And she [...] was nasty even to my mother.

[...]

She [the author] was not much of a family person.

[...]

My father was...I think he was the most solid person I have ever met. And he was a very good person. He was a very very. good person. He was strong, but he was good. For her to say that kind of things. A psychopath? That he was a psychopath? Anybody who knew Fred Trump would call him a psychopath?! And you know what? If he was, I would tell you.

[...]

My father, he was tough. He was tough for me. He was tough on all of the kids. But tough in a solid sense. In a really good sense.

[...]

That book is a LIE!
And Trump and his take on Fox News:
I'm not a big fan of Fox, I'll be honest with you. They've changed a lot since Roger Ailes.

[...]

Look, I know you very well. I know your father very well [referring to Mike Wallace]. He was one of the most talented journalists there are. And you likewise are a very talented person.

I do think this. I think you are a very, uh. I think you are toward the Democrat side. Which is ok...
[KPA Note: Which Chris Wallace of course denies, with "footage" to prove, which he shows]
It just seems to me that you are very prone to be with the Democrats, and maybe I'm wrong about that Chris. But it's an honor to be with you.
[KPA Note: Regarding the elections]
Trump: I don't think I'm going to lose at all.

Wallace: But if you did, how crushing would it be?

Trump: First of all, let me tell you something. I know everyone wants to know that because they'd LOVE to see me lose...Do you know how many times I've been written off?...
[KPA Note: Wallace persists with the "lose" question. And Trump doesn't take the bait]
And you know why I won't lose? Because the country in the end, they're not going to have a man whose shot. He's shot.
[KPA Note: Trump points to his head indicating that Biden is not right in the head]
Trump: He's mentally shot.

Let him come out of his basement and go around. I'll make four five speeches a day. I'll be interviewed by you. I'll be interviewed by the worst killers that hate my guts. They hate my guts. There's nothing they can ask me I that won't give a proper answer to. Some people will like it, some people won't like it.

Wallace: I agree with that.

Trump: But look. Let Biden sit through an interview like this. He'll be on the ground crying for Mommy. He'll say "Mommy, Mommy! Please take me home!"

Wallace: We've asked him for an interview, sir.

Trump: He can't do an interview. He's incompetent.

There's a number you haven't mentioned. It's the "enthusiasm number." The enthusiasm for Trump is through the roof. Even higher than last time. The enthusiasm for Biden in non-existent. Everyone knows he's shot.

Wallace: But the enthusiasm AGAINST YOU is high.

Trump: Well, that's OK. That's his only shot.

Wallace: Right.

Trump: That's his only shot. I agree. And those people know I'm doing a good job. But there's something in my personality that they don't like.

Because look. Nobody's done what I've done!

Biden wants to come in and ruin our country.

[...]

He will destroy this country.

But. It won't be him. It will be the radical left. The same type of ideology that took over Venezuela, one of the richest countries in the world. They now have no water. They've not food. And they have no medicine.

That's gonna happen here if he wins.
[KPA Note: The devious Wallace asks this as his "final" questions]:

Wallace: Are you a good loser?

Trump: I'm not a good loser. I don't like to lose. I don't lose too often. I don't like to lose.

Wallace: But are you gracious?

Trump: You don't know until you see. It depends.

I think mail-in voting is going to rig the election. I really do.

[...]

Wallace: Whether it's in 2021 or 2025, how will you regard your years as President of the United States?

Trump: I think I was very unfairly treated. From before I even won, I was under investigation by a bunch of thieves, crooks. It was an illegal investigation.

Wallace: But what about the good parts, sir?

Trump: No, no. I want to say this. I have done more than any President in US history in the first three and a half years, and I have done it suffering through an investigations

[...]

The Russia Hoax, it was all a hoax. The Muller Scam, it was all a scam. It was all false.

I made a bad decision. One bad decision: Jeff Sessions. Now I feel good because he lost overwhelmingly in the great state of Alabama.

Here's the bottom line. I've been very unfairly treated. And I don't say that as paranoid. Everybody says it. It's going to be interesting to see what happens. But there was tremendous evidence right now as to how unfairly treated I was.

[...]

Let’s see what happens. Despite that, I did more than any president in history in the first three and a half years.

Ethiopia's Independence and Strength

Excellent summary by "Merema" who takes on the usual VDare hastily constucted posts on Ethiopia. "Merema" is responding to the VDare cut-and-paste post "Minnesota Is Turning Into A Front In The Ethiopian Civil War."

Here is an excerpt from the comment by "Merema," who intelligently links Ethiopia's dam construction (the Grand Ethiopia Renaissance Dam - GERD) with the Minnesota protests:
...there are not too many Amharas in Minnesota. Minnesota is an Oromo stronghold because that’s where Oromo refugees were settled. The Amhara stronghold is Washington DC.

The good folks in Minnesota are being inconvenienced because of a conflict that is thousands of years old over the control of the Nile waters. Remember in the Bible when Pharaoh sent an army led by Moses to Nubia because Black people (Nubians) threatened to cut off the Nile’s water supply?

Jawar Mohammed, an Oromo living in Minnesota single-handedly founded the Oromo Media Network with money provided by EGYPT. Egypt is a a key player in all this because they are trying to destabilize Ethiopia. Egypt is panicking because they are loosing control of the Nile- their ONLY source of water. Most of the Nile water originates in the Amhara highlands and Ethiopia is building a HUGE dam. No Nile, no Egypt.
VDare links to a site called: The Unz Review, an Alternative Media Selection for comments, which is where Merema posted hers. The Unz Review seems to be the online home of regular VDare contributor Steve Sailer, who also penned the Ethiopia article. All comments are posted at the Unz Review.

Perhaps VDare should just stop their antagonism towards Ethiopia.

It makes me wonder if VDare's big funders are from the US Jewish community. There is no indication who recently "donated" the hundreds of dollars to VDare. Anonymity must be wonderful! Often, donors are happy to display their name, and their generosity, especially for such noble causes as "patriotism."

What is happening in Ethiopia is not an "emerging civil war" but a repeated cycle of unrest instigated by southern Oromo activists who want to destabilize Ethiopia. It was more of riots by discontent youth goaded by Oromo leaders, such as Jawar Mohamed, who are using them as fighting fronts. Such leaders are willing to have their young men killed in the name of political grievances.

This has been thwarted in part by the jailing of said leaders, the shutdown of the rebel-inciting Oromo Media Network (OMN) broadcast from Minnesota, and other short term measures taken by the Ethiopian government.

Life is basically back to normal in Addis Ababa, and the rest of the country.

One of which is to continue with the Grand Ethiopia Renaissance Dam (link is to a recent article on the politics behind the GERD), which "Memera" also discusses (see above).

My theory about the GERD project is that the Egyptians are being aided (even funded) by the Israeli to start conflict and confrontation in the Middle East. Although Ethiopia doesn't qualify as a Middle Eastern country, and is geographically aligned to the Horn of Africa, Ethiopia is pretty much an independent region. Hence its dangers to the region. And the Oromo leaders, with their Egyptian counterparts, are trying to destabilize this region, Ethiopia.

The GERD that Ethiopia is constructing is not only a natural, water, resource, but will make Ethiopia a strong regional and political force.

It is not just water that is the question, it is Ethiopia's independence and strength.

Via The Thinking Housewife:



“CASES” are climbing. That’s because more people are being tested as they go back to work. But there is no significant increase in deaths.

Heather Mac Donald reports at The Spectator:
Since April 24, the daily case count started declining, then began rising again after around June 9. What virtually every fear-mongering story on America’s allegedly precarious situation leaves out, however, is the steadily dropping daily death numbers — from a high of 2,693 on April 21 to 808 on June 24. That April high was driven by New York City and its environs; those New York death numbers have declined, but they have not been replaced by deaths in the rest of the country. This should be good news. Instead, it is no news.

[…]

There are no crises in hospital capacity anywhere in the country. Nursing homes, meat-packing plants, and prisons remain the main sources of new infections. Half the states are seeing cases decline or hold steady. Case counts are affected by more testing; the positive infection rate captured by testing is declining. The current caseload is younger, which is a good thing. The more people who have been infected and who recover, the more herd immunity is created. Meanwhile, daily deaths from heart disease and cancer — about 3,400 a day combined — go ignored in the press.
The situation is likely identical in Canada.

COVID as the Great Delineator


City Centre Lockdown
Photo take Sunday May 17, 2020
By: KPA


The COVID Scamdemic has shown us how easy it is to disrupt and uproot whole countries, whole economies, whole societies.

I took a set of photographs around the Mississauga Civic Centre, and the adjacent Square One Shopping Centre and its parking lots in mid-March, shocked by the parking lots which emptied days after the first announcements of COVID, and posted them on April 9: City Centre Lockdown.

On May 9, a month later, I posted a commentary I wrote in mid-March, which I titled Death through Acquiescence.

Two months later, nothing has changed. Ontario's Premier, Doug Ford, promised of "gradual" openings starting in June, but I'll believe it when I see it.

Those that we trusted as mediators of information, analysts and interpreters of opaque Orwellian language, betrayed us. I can only deduce that they are complicit, either directly through financed support (what else is there?) or through deliberate activity to disrupt and destroy.

Whole cities of grownups have been reduced to infantile acquiescence for a virus that hardly makes it up the Richter scale. Whole economies have bent to the order of shutdowns and lockdowns.

And no-one says anything! Some smugly sit in their dubious castles, others sing praise to Western ingenuity, as their very leaders behave like quivering epileptics, convulsed by invisible spiritual forces.

Lies, lies and more lies is what we've got with COVID, and those we thought we trusted have said NOTHING.

I posted my City Centre Lockdown images on April 9, and wrote Death through Acquiescence in March 17, which I posted on May 9, a month later. I wrote: "The world belongs to us, now. We are the inheritors, and its spokespeople. All else want its destruction."

Now nearing June, my impressions have not changed one iota. And neither has the City Centre Lockdown.

Michelle Malkin Presidential Campaign on Social Distancing
(Not a Brimelow Joke)


Malkin as the Socially Distant President
Video here


The screen shot above is from the video conversation between Michelle Malkin and Peter Brimelow, who is doing a series of these live streams. I commented on one between Brimelow and Derbyshire, where Brimelow made a joke (flat and inconsequential) on "social distancing."

The title to the image comes from Brimelow's suggestion to Malkin (around the 50 second mark):
Brimelow: ...my definition of a Civic Nationalist: Someone who's willing to vote for Michelle Malkin for President when she runs on a platform of immigration moratorium...So, tell us, when are you going to declare, Michelle?
Malkin: The prospect of me going back to Washingtonian in any form is really not attractive to me at all...
Brimelow: Social Distancing. It can be a socially distant president..."
The generally abrasive, and constantly angry, Michelle Malkin, about whom I wrote on May 15 on her reaction to the COVID-SCAM, has done her one-on-one with VDare's Peter Brimelow.

In my May 15 article on Malkin, I was trying to figure out her definitive position on the COVID-SCAM. I concluded that her commentary was inconclusive:
In any case, as usual with our off-Main-Stream-Media, they cannot make up their minds, or more precisely, cannot come up with their own data analyses and conclusions that COVID is not much to write about other than to compare it with other phenomena, such as immigration.
Earlier on, in my commentary on the Brimelow-Derbyshire video conversation, I speculate if VDare and their followers actually want the social, financial, and cultural ruin of our West, and the world over, really, a "global Gotterdammerung, to start their America on a clean, white slate.":
The discussion between Derbyshire and Brimelow centered around black crimes on whites, which is the repetitive, mantra-like, redundant postings through which VDare has made its trademark, over the couple of decades it has existed.

I have to speculate whether it is something that they wish for, some kind of racial war, to start the machinations of a global Gotterdammerung, to start their America on a clean, white slate.

The populations that are suffering due to this "pandemic" at much higher levels are the poor, mostly black and other "people of color," although not due to illness or death, but through financial loss of jobs and savings.
Near the end of the interview, the Brimelow-Malkin discussion does touch upon the COVID-SCAM social, cultural, and financial upheaval, but wraps it around immigration control, the scamdemic being a useful tool to start closing off and monitoring that porous border.
Brimelow: I really think that's what's happening with social distancing now. We're going to have to get used to all these epidemic diseases coming in because apparently it won't stop immigration from the Third World.

When I wrote Alien Nation I said I thought immigration was the wild card that would get immigration to public debate. But in fact, it turned out to be terrorism and they had to tell a lot of lies to suppress that problem. Now they're going to tell a lot of lies about a disease. But this is like at least the third wave of diseases that have come in since Alien Nation (Brimelow's 19... book) was written..

[...]

But the thing is social distancing...i like price and wage control. Massive overkill to what's going on...I think. Does that make sense to you?

Malkin: Yeah, absolutely, and I alluded to this in my column today at VDare [KPA:...I posted on it here] and this paradox of the government both overreacting and under-reacting.

Brimelow. Part of the problem is that they just won't be frank about it. For two months, three months, we've been writing about the disease, the racial issue...the racial differences in susceptibility.

[...]

And then quite suddenly in the past week, it has been politically correct to write about it, because it turns out that American blacks were unusually susceptible. And therefore it is useful to for basically guilting out the whites again.

And near the very end, the "Pandemic" gets a fleeting mention by Malkin, in relation of course to immigration ....

Malkin
: But when the pandemic dies down, (if it dies down), that he's [Trump's] intent on pushing congress to pass the DACA deal after the Supreme Court.
So what if a disproportionate number of American citizens who are black (and brown - how about that, Michelle M., but what does she have to worry, with her Jewish/"white" husband) are in danger of the social and financial consequences of this disease. Our whole purpose is to support and represent the white race.

In fact, so what if a substantial number of poor whites are also affected by this scamdemic. Our purpose is "America First!"

When principle becomes subordinate to purpose, then anything goes.

Once again, the discussion between Brimelow and Malkin hardly touches the COVID-SCAM, and the effusive Malkin, bestowed with Brimelow's praise, and encouragement, on her battle for America, seems to be on the road to the Presidency, or at least start off with a Mayorship for Colorado Springs, CO, as she coyly defers from discussing with her protege Brimelow.

I have to add, the "conservative" Malkin, who dresses anything but conservatively, presents herself thus at a recent presentation in 2019 at the annual Western Conservative Summit, in 2019.



By the way, it was really difficult to find out the topic of Malkin's presentation, let alone the title. It is as though we should blindly accept that whatever these "immigration" critics say or write about is sacrosanct, and needs no more than their names. I believe Malkin was simply a "guest speaker" during a luncheon session, according to this schedule.

And Malkin, whose husband is Jewish, and who is purportedly Filipino Catholic, has two children, whom she raises as... what?

It is the usual story of contemporary conservatives, usually in some grip with Jewish influence, without a Christian spiritual principle to guide their ways, as I wrote here, here, and here, amongst many other posts, who use their pent up energy to deflect the issues towards other "pressing" items, like black crime, and of course, immigration, as America, Canada, and the West are being destroyed by a fake disease, which NONE of them have brought up in their copious interviews and discussions.

So, it bears repeating, as I have done in several of my recent blogs, on this absence of intelligent commentary on the scamdemic:
I have to speculate whether it is something that they wish for, some kind of racial war, to start the machinations of a global Gotterdammerung, to start their America on a clean, white slate.
Hypocrisy knows no bounds.

All About (the Black) Race

It is all about race, isn't it, for the modern con or lib.

Malkin, about whom (and about whose news "analysis") I posted here, and which also includes her interview with VDare's Brimelow, another race obsessed con, has her twitter description as "Little brown woman."

So what? Does this give her some kind of magical insight into the plight of blacks, and browns, in America? Is she the expert?

Hardly, with her Colorado home, and holidays, and some kind of cushy job writing a syndicated column for creators.com.

I wonder if she's ever been to a "brown" country, such as Mexico, or the Philippines, from where apparently her predecessors hail?

Hiking in the Colorado mountains hardly makes the Third World score.

And I wonder why these con women desire so much to show the world their online touch-ups? I really don't want to see Malkin's thighs as I read her twitter page, which is hardly ever. A picture is worth a thousand words.

It is important to note that Malkin, who professes to be a Roman Catholic, is married to a Jewish man. How do they bring up their children: Catholic, Jewish, non-determined to decide later? And where does female modesty appear in all this?

Finding Culprits for the Rage

Michelle Malkin, another contributor to VDare's long list of "immigration restriction" articles writes about the Corona, unable to articulate who to get mad at.

Malkin wrote an article for Mother's Day for the UNZ Review (a VDare-affiliated on-line publication) where she rails at the US Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Dr. Fauci:
How dare you accuse us parents of being “cavalier” with our children’s health, Fauci, when you are scaring them with dubious, unverified claims connecting a few cases of an alleged mystery pediatric disease to the coronavirus?

How dare you toss around so cavalierly the uncorroborated specter of “Kawasaki syndrome” (a rare but treatable disease) while untold numbers among the 57 million K-12 students suffer from the effects of panic-induced anxiety, depression, phobias and isolation?
At the first "how dare you" I thought Malkin was talking about the dubious medical claims to the dubious COVID-19, a virus which hardly reaches the level of previous flu epidemics (and for which there were no country lock-downs).

But she's (metaphorically) yelling at the Fauci, for linking increased COVID with children with Kawasaki syndrome, whose reality the eminent Doctor seems to doubt.

Still, Malkin's article is so convoluted that I am not sure if she takes the COVID-19 as a pandemic-scaremongering, or if parents like her, with a daughter "battling chronic pain and joint hypermobility requiring multiple surgeries" (is that also the Kawasaki syndrome Fauci was talking about?) SHOULD take the COVID seriously. Again, it is not clear if Malkin's daughter has this syndrome, or another similar.

Is she agreeing with the lock-down? Is that why she is traveling up to small town Colorado for Mother's Day - "We drove out east from Colorado Springs to the tiny town of Calhan for a lovely little hike in the purple-and-gold-hued Paint Mines archeological district. Unmasked, we basked in the sunshine, fresh air and freedom. The park was teeming with moms like me who put family bonding over “social distancing. [KPA: How easy it is to 'social distance' when you have the natural social distancing of large natural areas, when social distancing becomes 'a glorious thing'.]"

Is she simply venting, since she believes/doesn't believe (depending on the story, and her mood) the COVID-Scare (a virus which is not as lethal as the least lethal of flus, and for which we've never had a country-wide lock-down)?

Or did she have to write an article on something newsworthy, and COVID had to be it?

In any case, as usual with our off-Main-Stream-Media, they cannot make up their minds, or more precisely, cannot come up with their own data analyses and conclusions that COVID is not much to write about other than to compare it with other phenomena, such as immigration, and/or rare and unpleasant diseases.

So, Malkin's article simply becomes a rage (at some machine).

Social Distancing as a Joke



Derbyshire (of two VDare "genii" - listen to their joke during the interview on Youtube below and here) meets up with Brimelow, editor of VDare, via some teleconferencing method now the rage in this corona-era to discuss, well, NOT social distancing.

I tuned in (actually listened to the taped video) genuinely believing that they would somehow discuss the fake pandemic.

But, I discovered that what I wrote earlier still holds: that VDare has no interest in the societal and economic upheaval that this fake pandemic is causing the world.
What is disconcerting is that VDare has not posted a single coherent piece on the spectacular "lockdown" (a prison term, by the way) on Americans and Canadians, and actually the whole world, on a fake pandemic for a virus that has killed less than flu virus (and viruses), which originated from an outdoor market in China.[Reclaiming Beauty, April 28, 2020]
The discussion between Derbyshire and Brimelow centered around black crimes on whites, which is the repetitive, mantra-like, redundant postings through which VDare has made its trademark, over the couple of decades it has existed.

I have to speculate whether it is something that they wish for, some kind of racial war, to start the machinations of a global Gotterdammerung, to start their America on a clean, white slate.

The populations that are suffering due to this "pandemic" at much higher levels are the poor, mostly black and other "people of color," although not due to illness or death, but through financial loss of jobs and savings.
[T]he most jobs at risk [due to the coronavirus lockdowns include]...leisure and hospitality..., transportation ..., employment services..., mining ..., and travel arrangements.

[...]

The analysis signals that this recession will be particularly challenging for people of color. While about 12.5% of non-Hispanic white Americans work in the most affected industries, this is true for 17.6% of Hispanic workers and 16.8% of blacks. Hispanics make up a large share of employment in the leisure and hospitality industry, and black workers make up a bigger proportion of the transportation sector. [Source]
Poor whites may suffer also, but to a lesser extent. And wealthier whites have many strategies to reduce their corona-problems, including rushing off (in Canada at least) to their second homes in quieter and healthier lake-side properties.

Poorer people may not have the luxury of credit cards, or even internet connections which they trust will not eat away their online dollar expenditures.

And wealthier whites can stay for much longer holed up in their five-bedroom homes, with one room each for Mom, Dad, and three kids (and even with one room to spare), than would poorer families of five living in apartments of three rooms.

Either way, the corona seems to be financially affecting non-whites more than whites.

I thought Brimelow and Derbyshire would discuss the draconian, government imposed shut-down and lock-down for a "big nothing" virus, as I wrote earlier, and how it affects some more than others (although certainly affecting all). Instead, their social distancing was simply a joke on the times.

Their conversation consisted purely of "immigration restriction" in the time of the virus.

And Brimelow's idea of a joke is to put in front view a bottle of whisky, and to drink from it: "The Corona has turned me to drink."

My recent (corona) post on VDare is here.

Death through Acquiescence

Below is what I wrote on March 17, as I was just beginning to understand this "pandemic."

-------------------------------------

It's fascinating. A pathetic virus (sane people slip out that it is a variation of the flu) is running the world.

I was watching the news (CNN, CBS, NBC, and the Canadian CBC and CTV) during the first announcements of the "pandemic," and they are all alarmists.

Don't the newscaster have any shame? A virus which by epidemiology standards is NOT an epidemic, let alone a "pandemic" is running the world.

Of course, the news has to have been manipulated.

As the coronavirus map shows, the virus has "bypassed" most of the world, including the Middle East, the Indian Subcontinent, the Horn of Africa, etc. Even Canada seems immune, but you wouldn't know it with the public panic attack.

It IS the Western World under attack. Europe, the beautiful Italy, Spain, France and of course England and Britain.

The maps, the talking heads, the "experts," the "doctors," and some "news analysts" all talk in apocalyptic language.

The Western World will die with a pathetic acquiescence of a contrived disease. Not through some glorious outrage and uproar.

For us, for me, it is good to know where we stand. Let them all fumigate in the mire of their own making. Let them reject and deny God, and follow the Devil's directions.

It is a fascinating, and exciting time.

The world belongs to us, now. We are the inheritors, and its spokespeople. All else want its destruction.

I have revived my Museum of Beauty idea, which I hope to develop into an online presence. There are lots of sane people out there who have had enough of these usurpers.

This is a clever, ingenious, strategy: creating a non-virus to affect our civilization.

But nature is honest. And the birds are chirping the arrival of Spring. Flowers will be blooming soon.

So, have a good day!

The Globalists Inc.



The biggest mistake of Trudeau and the Globalists Inc. going down in the socio-political history of the 21st century is that they thought they could re-structure the world.

I still believe the response to COVID ought to be a spiritual one, with the admittance that we ALL made mistakes in our heathen atheism, and where we ask for forgiveness, and redirection by our almighty God.

Still, revolutions are fomenting everywhere, one individual at a time. Throughout the planet.

This blogger agrees with me (or I agree with him):
It's totally counterintuitive to everything they do, they rule with an iron fist and fear. To defeat them we have to do the opposite of their tactics -- promote beauty and love. We have to promote things that truly mean a lot to us and shine our light while we can. And if we set an intention to do this, I know that God will help us.

Mercer Correspondence Updated for Content and Information:
"Smart" Denegrations, Especially in Emails, Stick Around

Recently, a correspondent emails:
I never read Vdare...Just not interested in it. Are you talking about Ilana Mercer? Oh yeah, she's just a total Jewish shill, like Faith Goldy.
From Wikipedia:
A shill, also called a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps or gives credibility to a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with the person or organization. Shills can carry out their operations in the areas of media, journalism, marketing, politics, confidence games, or other business areas. A shill may also act to discredit opponents or critics of the person or organization in which they have a vested interest through character assassination or other means.
Here is one of my recent posts on Mercer where I question her alliance with Israel:
Ilana Mercer, in her biography on her website, writes:
Ilana is a fellow at the Jerusalem Institute for Market Studies (an award-winning, independent, non-profit, free-market economic policy think tank).
She is listed at the JIMS website "team" as a "Media Fellow."

The JIMS states its mission as:
...promot[ing] social progress in Israel through economic freedom and individual liberty.
What is Mercer doing writing for an organization with political roots in Israel?
Below is Mercer's attempt to discredit me, albeit through email interaction. I believe she meant to silence me. Below is an excerpt from an email "correspondence" I had with Mercer in 2009, after I questioned her "collective" loyalty to a nation, due to her libertarian "individualism" ideology, regarding her July 4, 2009 article A July 4th Toast to Thomas Jefferson - And the Declaration. She wrote back to me, but with disdain, not acknowledging me, even though she was replying to me!
KPA: On a comment about collective feelings of grief, you made that sound like an impossibility, since only "individuals" feel grief. Yes, nations grieve, nations rejoice. This is not a communist thing. Of course it is composed of individuals, and of course each individual grieves idiosyncratically. But, a collective grief does occur. I was struck by your inability to see this.
Mercer: The other laughable issue is the accusation that I lack a healthy nationalism. Again, bloggers proudly display their absolute ignorance--they have no qualms about never studying the object of their expansive, idiot, smug comments.
This was in 2009. I posted on this on my Camera Lucida blog on July 4, 2009 (her article came a day earlier at World Net Daily). The full interaction is on July 5, 2009, at Camera Lucida.

Well it's now 2020! "Smart" denegrations, especially in emails, stick around.

Chinese Always Playing Catch-up

My comment in my Council of European Canadians article: Who is Dr. Theresa Tam, following up on the discussion in the comments on China:
It is easy to dismantle their [the Chinese] apparent incursions into the West, since they are always playing catch-up.
