  • WHEN you bet your life that your threat-to-your-opponents DETERS them,

    THEN you are betting your life that they will limit their actions, for fear of the harm you could do to them.

    But WHEN you polarize them to the degree that they no longer care if they die: they ONLY care that you are annihilated

    THEN you don’t have any “deterrent” anymore, you have only … your own-children’s ashes, in your hands.


    Netanyahu is apparently incompetent in understanding this concept, as all Zionists apparently are.

    Karma will demonstrate exactly the principle I’m trying to point-out, here.

    idiocy.

    Competitive-nihilism, whether mass-shooters, or Netanyahu-types, do NOT “win” for their countries, they win only for hell’s dominion on our world’s lives.

    “can’t see past their noses” morons.

  • Meaningless posturing: once Trump snaps, then Trump won’t care one single photon about China’s butchering of Asia into being its property, its subjugated empire:

    the only thing that will be consuming Trump, is that there are still countries in the Americas which aren’t broken, under him, as HIS empire.

    The non-Chinese are going to be as the Tibetans are, under Chinese rule: finished.

    Trump’s US won’t back ANY US “ally”, when push comes to shove, in 2026: he’ll be waging war against them, instead…

  • For a taste of what actual-conditions mean in the Congo, please glance at this page of videos, & see that it’s nothing like what the privileged live-in:

    https://theync.com/search/congo/

    the evidence is both sickening & horrifying, & anybody who grows-up in that, is more desensitized-to that than the developed-West’s populations are.

    To remove S.O.P.-atrocities, the entire atrocities-regime needs removing.

    & the West’s “journalism”'s hiding the true-conditions of the world from the population they consume their revenue from, isn’t Journalism.

    ( “The Watchdog That Didn’t Bark” is 1, of many, books on the West’s “journalism” and its protection of the corruption that is cancer-izing our viability toward being completely-fatal.

    It’s just at an earlier-stage, for our countries, than it is in the Congo, is all: same underlying condition, just different degree.

    Wait until Trump snaps, & begins war on everybody in the Americas, except his cult, & then you’ll see. )

  • Putin turning Russia in to China’s vassal-state, economically, while enforcing unpopular-war, while enforcing Russia’s economic grinding-to-hell …

    has consequences??

    No, really??


    I’ve stated for the last few years, that Russia is going to be China’s mere-vassal-state.

    I’m adding, here, that WHEN Trump takes Greenland, as a means of militarily-enforcing his annexation of Canada ( Alaska/navy+airforce/mainland/navy+airforce/Greenland, sealing us off from ALL trade, to butcher us like Russia butchered Mariupol ),

    THEN Putin, with BRICS’/China’s backing, will be rampaging Europe, for Putin’s ego/psychopathy & for China’s strategic gain, since once Trump & Putin, & their-legacy-regimes, implode, then China’s built-up empire ( Modi’s India bet-the-farm on Russia helping India fight China, which … is based in fantasy, not geopolitical-facts, so India has no stron ally within BRICS, & their tiny investment in military won’t match China’s: India will fall, when Trump’s rampaging Canada, the non-Republicans within the US in Civil War Part2, AND Central & South America, including Mexico, Panama, Venezuela, Cuba, etc, in his greed to be the West’s “KING” ) … China’s built-up empire will then be able to begin butchering-down the remnants of NATO…

    & that war-of-attrition will simply keep going on, & on, & on, for decades, until the world-population has been reduced by a few billion.

    People back what they’re born-into, right?

    Religions use that, to enforce their-population’s ideology/identity…

    Political-ideologies use it, cultures use it…

    Hofstede’s whole Cultural-Dimensions-Theory is rooted in it!

    People born into short-term cultures ( macho tropical cultures, e.g. ) are more embodying of short-term values, views, & reacting-instincts, while people born into long-term cultures ( South Korea ) are more embodying of long-term values, views, & reacting-instincts.

    Same is true for external-“success” orientation vs inner-“nurturing” orientation.

    Same is true for uncertainty-denial vs uncertainty-comfort.

    Nationalisms all use this same imprint/programming mechanism ( lower-forebrain, Kahneman & Tversky “System 1”, etc ), to prevent either objectivity or correct-reasoning from interfereing with them…

    But then what happens when neither objectivity nor correct-reasoning is tolerated to have any place in any education, as Leninism & Fox Network & Repubican “education” all enforce??

    Well, then you have multi-generational incapability of being anything whatsoever other-than ideology and ideological-reacting.

    & what happens when the vast majority of the world’s population is born into that condition?

    Global Deathmatch.

    Some call it “The Great Filter”, but it’s the same thing.

    Some call it “The Great Purification”, but it’s the same thing.

    Some call it “The Valley of Death”/“Armageddon”, but it’s the same thing.

    Some call it “The Tribulation”, but it’s the same thing.

    ALL worlds that are as chimp-minded as we are, who gain industry & nukes, without our unconscious-minds growing-up, get the same “species-puberty” enforcement-process.

    There’s nothing “religious” or “divine” about species-ignorance trying to beat & break universe/G-D into OBEYING its ego-ignorance.

    Not on this world, not on any other, not anywhere.

    It’s simply an ( ignorance ) addict breaking their-own life to “prove” that their addiction is the “only LORD”, same as any street-junkie obliterating their only life is doing, but humankind’s doing it at whole-planet scale…

    The only method which can produce species-survival, is the Venn-diagram intersection of

    • spiritual-competence, beyond politics, narcissisms, ideologies, or any other “religious” unconscious-machiavellianisms
    • objectivity, seeing us the way omniscience sees us, without any “sugar-coating” of tribal-politics, &
    • correct-reasoning, cutting-through our world’s entrenched ignorances, with its illuminating insights…

    No other method can produce survival of the species-“puberty” process on humankind, this century!


    There are 3 categories of game:

    • Positive-Sum game: Win-Win Alliance
    • Zero-Sum game: Competitive-Narcissism
    • Negative-Sum game: Competitive-Nihilism/Psychopathy.

    That mass-shooters, Netanyahu, Putin, Trump, & Millei are playing Negative-Sum games, at their own scales, has consequences:

    All who pretend that zero-sum-game is the game that they are playing, are no-more than appeasing & denying, to protect their assumptions’ feelings.

    Putin’s ignoring/denying is fundamental to the game he’s playing, & there won’t be any meaningful “Russia” left, in 4 more decades, thanks to his regime.

    Trump is doing the same with the USA, same timescale.

    Netanyahu’s “Israel” isn’t going to exist in the 2030’s, by the looks of it: retaliation is inevitable, & their own scripture ( Jeremiah & Isaiah, at-least ) explicitly identifies that every time “Israel” turns against G-D, then G-D’s wrath expresses through others, against it, annihilating its regime. Every time: it’s G-D’s LAW.

    So, the Zionists rejection of Jeremiah & Isaiah … is “Judaism”, of some kind, then?

    shruggeth

    Let their reaping be what their sowing has been, & let their G-D’s wrath … have their regime.

    I’d rather my relationship with OriginOfAllLife be distinctly different from what the negative-sum-game rulers are enforcing.


    But please see the scale of it all!

    See that the treachery-against-Russia that Putin’s psychopathic regime embodies, butchers Russia’s future.

    ( the White-Blue-White Russians are every bit as Russian, to me, as Putin’s White-Blue-Red Russians are, competing against each-other.

    Same as the Trumpites compete against the sane, in the US.

    Same as the humanist Jews oppose the Zionists,

    & the humanist Muslims oppose the Islamists,

    & the good Catholics oppose their church’s protecting-of-child-molestation ( that pope who had the dark bags under his eyes, when he’d been the Catholic church’s enforcer, had written, in latin, an order that anybody who cooperated-with-police against Catholic-officials bestiality or molesting, would be excommunicated. My mom took that, when an English lawyer translated it for the world, into English, to her church, & got locked-out from that basilica’s providing-music-for-mass, permanently. She moved to another church, since she’d been effectively excommunicated for her holding-to-accountability… the church official who protected the church’s satanic established-behavior? No accountability for him, among worldly-law… )

    It’s all the same, everywhere:

    We have to let-go of worldly-machiavellianisms & worldly-narcissisms, & simply let LivingSpirit do the strategy for us, while we work-on what we can earn.

    “Think Globally, but Act Locally”, taken to its logical-conclusion…

    NONE of the “country” entities which exist NOW, will exist +1 century in our future.

    So, why concentrate on what we can’t own, +1-century nationalism, when we can own our own viability?

    We can own our own uprighting, our own kaizen, our own improving, right?

    THIS https://theworldwatch.com/ is what the on-the-ground world really is like, re ideological-programmed REACTING, displacing objectivity, displacing correct-reasoning, displacing reasoned-evolution, from humankind.

    It is ideological-programming that is the true enemy of our viability!

    See how ideology squanders all LivingPotential, all LivingOpportunity, for its rule…

    The ONLY way that Palestine could have been saved, was if the UN had taken-over ALL public-service in the territory, disallowing ANY ideology’s rule, disallowing Hamas AND Zionism from interfering, & then, after about 3 generations of that, the ideologues would have been retired-out-from authority-roles, and THEN peace would have become possible…

    Obviously, neither Hamas nor Zionism would tolerate such result, so they both enforced that the current “apocalypse” get manufactured, right?

    Putin’s enforcing that the “apocalypse” of Russia be guaranteed.

    Trump’s enforcing that the “apocalypse” of the US of A be guaranteed.

    & we’re all unconsciously contributing to this, through our holding-onto ideologies, instead of breaking the mind-rabies-of-ideology, ITSELF, from our world…

    IT is our enemy…

    IT always produces opposite-to-good results, in the long-term…

    Inevitably…

    Every culture, very region, every time, consistently…

    Ideology always insists that it isn’t ideology that is the problem, it is that ideology that is the problem, so if we just become infected with opposite ideology, & be ideology’s pathogens against that ideology, then we’ll “win”…

    We’ve been scammed by our unconscious-mind’s mechanisms/games, & really ought grow-up about it, now, you know?

  • Your position is the careful & considered position of someone who’s earning real experience-induced-understanding, in this world, 1 of the kinds of wisdom…

    Carefulness-with-meaning is one of the fundamental signs of inner-maturity, in AwakeSoulism/Buddhism…

    “right speech” it is called…

    The “ALPHA/successfully-bullying is what VALID means!!” ideology/rabies will never value, let-alone respect, it, … but some of us, who’ve also earned enough experience-induced-understanding to be careful, value it when we see it…

  • A single verse: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+20%3A17&version=CJB

    The original founding of Israel, millenia-ago, was on the bedrock of genociding.

    I presume that there’s been ebb-&-flow in motivation, … but I’ve seen Jewish discussions asking why there was sooo much genociding, in the founding of Judaism…


    All this recent world-history, though, has caused me to understand something that I was too stupid to understand, before:

    ALL genociding is rooted in narcissism.

    Maybe “national” narcissism, maybe “personal” narcissism, maybe “ideological” narcissism, but ALL of it is rooted in narcissism, & sociopathy ( induced ) or psychopathy ( intrinsic brain-defect of deficient/zero empathy ), to boot.

    Therefore anyone wanting to root-out genociding, has to root-out narcissism, genociding’s origin…

    That change-in-perspective means differentiating between the symptoms, vs the origin/cause, & if the cause is narcissism, which we ALL ( all demographies, all cultures, all languages, all populations ) have in us, & then have our culture intentionally & systematically amplify…

    … that makes things much more impersonal, more systemic, more civilization-scale-correction is required …

  • This is an incompetent waste-of-resources, worse than pointless.

    That flight’s pilot had rehearsed turning once outside of land-radar, to prevent the crash-site from being discovered,

    flying over the sea,

    & then slamming into the sea,

    on his home flight-sim, I’ve read.

    Why bother pouring another few $million into pretending that the aircraft “went missing”, when it was intentionally destroyed by the pilot?

    I don’t know what motivated his mass-murdercide ( “murdercide” term coined by New Scientist, for suicide-bombers ), but we need to stop pouring our finite-resources into pointless idiocies,

    when there are such great needs for the living, here & now.

    ( XOR we’re pushing ourselves closer to a species-wide DarwinAward, this-century,

    which may be what the real aim is…

    obliterate our viability, then pretend that we’re “not responsible” for our non-survival, right?

    Bah.

    Make all such wasting-of-resources be paid-for by volunteer-financers, & then maybe there’d be moral-basis for it.

    But when general taxpayer basis is either paying-for, or subsidizing, idiotic wasting-of-opportunity, then it’s abuse/wrong. )


    Sorry for being bitter,

  • That would have to happen SOON:

    Once Trump’s got the leverage he needs, to convert entirely to totalitarian-dictatorship, his annexation of the rest of North & Central America, & war on Canada, Panama, Mexico, Venezuela, etc, & his de-naturalization ( removal-of-citizenship ) of all non-Republicans, thereby making ONLY his-cult own the entire country, his wars mean that Russia can then be rampaging on all of Europe, with NO backing coming from this-side of the Atlantic, & with Chinese backing Russia, then the whole tide turns…

    Beware Trump’s continuing progression into evil, it’s going to cost millions of lives, on each side of the Atlantic, in mere months.

    _ /\ _


  • & people insist that my claim that Trump is going to use his “denaturalization” citizenship-removal law, against all Democrats, is delusion…

    Mere months, now, people, mere months, before US Civil War Part2 is begun, with the removal of civil-rights from all except Trump-worshippers, & then the butchering will begin ( while he launches war against Central America, northern South America, & Canada, to enforce his annexations, for his continental-kingdom dictatorship’s greed )

    The ones who have the authority to prevent this won’t do-so, so prepare for the coming butchery, to improve your liklihood-of-surviving…

    ( EU, abandoned, will be rampaged by Russia, obviously, with China’s full backing )

    See Trump’s progression, and its acceleration, & extrapolate it, … & understand it is WE who will be dying, soon.

  • It’s really just exclusive-validity identity politics, which has roots DEEP in many mammal-species…

    Here https://www.amazon.com/Immunity-Change-Potential-Organization-Leadership-ebook/dp/B004OEILH2/ you can read the beginning of a book which explains how our unconscious-minds fight off any growing-up, fighting-off change…

    In it, it describes 3 unconscious-mind-development-stages, which I call Kegan3, Kegan4, & Kegan5, simply because there are SO many different systems-of-stages-or-dimensions to keep mindful-of, like Kahneman+Tversky-1 & Kahneman+Tversky-2 ( imprint->reaction system, lower-forebrain, the ideology/prejudice/trained-expertise system, vs considered-reasoning, upper-forebrain, much exercised in programming )

    … that it’s idiocy to NOT index all such things, now…

    Here, if you scroll down a little, you can see a table describing the different unconscious-mind-development stages, ALL of them, that their-kind know about ( the stage after Kegan5 is the self-conquering-stage, which they never saw or identified, because our world’s process sabotages/prevents it )

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Kegan#The_Evolving_Self

    Now think about herdbeasts, which don’t have Kegan5’s systems-of-systems stage…

    They do have Kegan3, which is the upper-limit that cows are allowed to, by bulls, & they have Kegan4, which the bulls level-off in…

    Kegan3 is wanting to be liked, it is associating-with validity ( hence the power of “influencers”, among the younger humans in any time ), it is, fundamentally, ( & I’m not certain that Robert Kegan understood this ) the absorbing experience stage of one’s life, living more in feelings & social-“reality”…

    Kegan4, on the other hand, is what I call “BullingBOSS mode”, where validity is zero-sum game: it is exclusive and that is exactly the way bulls work: it is limbic-brain, in basis, so it should hold throughout most mammals!

    Now, IF one’s identity & validity are rooted in zero-sum game, then anyone else having any validity reduces one’s own validity!!

    Narcissism also works this way, you’ll notice, so now there are 2 fundamental-causes for such instinct, in-play…

    Here you will find a book which explains the 5 LEVELS of culture-process, from competitive-nihilism’s culture-level-1, to LIVING IS SELF-INHERENTLY AWESOME!!'s culture-level-5: https://www.amazon.com/Tribal-Leadership-Revised-Leveraging-Organization-ebook/dp/B006IDG1K6/

    Here is the dumbed-down TED Talk about their years-of-research: https://www.ted.com/talks/david_logan_tribal_leadership

    Culture-level-2 produces conspiricism! Subject-to-narcissism is therefore strategically-cancerous!

    Now, what happens if your culture glorifies exclusive-validity identity, and, in so doing, produces a glass-ceiling on one’s culture, which prevents culture-level-4 & culture-level-5…??

    One ends-up devaluing, dehumanizing, others, & wanting them butchered, in order to validate one’s culturally-grown prejudice!

    IOW, it isn’t just-the-Republicans, the nazis did it, I’m certain that much of the time the Romans did it, different Chinese cultures have done it, same with the Japanese, etc…

    It expresses different ways, depending on the identity-anchors of the “valid”, vs the “nonvalid”…

    As Logan, King, & Fischer-Wright noticed, you can walk into ANY hospital in North America, with the exception of 1, which outgrew that cultural-glass-ceiling, & if you walk-in looking both professional & self-confident, the junior staff won’t meet your eyes, because the narcissism-culture of the doctors has destroyed their human-validity.

    THAT is evidence-based knowing!!

    The vignette that Logan gives, in that TED Talk is on that specific section of their book, but doesn’t give enough of it.

    Both my parents were medical-professionals, Dad was a medical researcher and doctor, and that researcher bit was significant … because the narcissism-culture of White medicine definitely saturated them both, but his science-culture overrode that, intellectually … for which there ought be no limit to my gratitude, for that gift…

    ( doesn’t mean I didn’t go no-contact with both of them, though: the narcissism, the exclusive validity that doesn’t include me is toxicity/cancer, in any “family” or “community” )

    ( btw, the personal-stuff is only so that you understand the experience-induced-understanding: it isn’t just theory, it’s earned understanding. There’s no reason to care about it, otherwise: it’s just context/perspective, so leave me out from any “care” or “concern”. )

    Now when you’ve made your culture narcissistic, AND you’re glorifying Kegan4’s BullingBOSS mode…

    AND you add-in non-accountable authority’s rule … then sociopathy’s the result, isn’t it?

    It is produced by this configuration of culture-forces!!

    ( definitions: psychopathy means incapable of empathy, because one’s mirror-neuron-system, or something, just doesn’t function, so other-lives are just meat-marionettes…

    sociopathy isn’t brain-intrinsic, it is psychologically-produced analogue-of-psychopathy, through systematic imprinting ( that Kahneman1 imprint->reaction system ), until the programming produced it. )

    So, anybody here who wants to read just how evil “normal” can be, please read some of Angela Davis’s “Women, Race, & Class” book … https://www.amazon.com/Women-Race-Class-Angela-Davis-ebook/dp/B0054KKRKY

    & you will begin understanding just how spectacularly wrong our assumptions are, re human-culture-produced-outright-evil, from the utterly stomach-turning historical-facts she’s putting into that…

    & then you will begin understanding that when prejudice is the ruling-religion, then the nazis were normal, in evil.

    So, really it all comes down to specific identity-forces:

    • Kegan4, unconscious validity-narcissistic BullingBOSS-mode, being glorified,
    • culture being ruled by narcissism, systematically, with an invisible “glass ceiling” preventing culture-level-4 from being known within their culture, &
    • nonaccountable-authority garrotting evolution
    • our unconscious-mind’s innate mechanisms for preventing growing-up, fighting growing-up off, as “Immunity to Change” identifies, & it gives us simple methods, that work, for getting past the unconsciously-manufactured-obstacles we grow, to block our evolution.
    • entirely possibly more, that I’m not aware-of, or not remembering now…

    Salut, Namaste, & Kaizen, eh?

  • It’s worse than that:

    He can legally remove-citizenship from anybody, now, & no court-injunction has any power on him, or his appointees I read ( that was bundled-into his big “beautiful” bill, apparently )

    All he has to do is create “justification” for declaring the Democratic party to be terrorists, denaturalize all of 'em, & then there ARE no non-Republican judges left, legal, in the country…

    Nobody to appeal to: your accuser is the Republicans, & your judge will also be Republican.


    Dig-in, people, hire private-investigators ( or get books on it, & books on journalism, & books on building a legal case, & get competent, pronto, if you can’t afford to hire help ) to get the evidence required against the electorate who’ve been breaking the law ( insider-trading, e.g. ), & GET leverage, before there’s none left…

    The assuming victory habit that the Dems have used to “protect” themselves, thus-far ( like how their assuming protected Harris’s victory, while they sat at home, smug ), has cost too-much leverage, thus-far.

    Just recently it gave Trump’s buddy Millei another term, in Argentina…

    Get pragmatic, dig-in, unearth & earn owning-of, all remaining available leverage, & use it while you can…

    They’re literally replicating nazi Germany’s ever-escalating progression, & the nazis using legalism to dismantle rule-of-constitution, & the US’s “night of long knives” will come, sooner-or-later…

    it’s only a matter of when, now…

  • The narcissism of anthro-centrism is endless, isn’t it?

    They’re still phrasing some of this stuff as-if it’s doubtful, WHILE giving multi-millenia times between the artwork was created, vs when homo-sapiens appeared…

    1 item they list is over 70-k years old…

    There should be ZERO doubt.

    There should have been zero doubt once radio-isotope dating put even ONE “black swan” on the map.


    A woman pointed-out in New Scientis, decades ago, that the Neanderthals had 1 significant disadvantage, compared with us: worse brain-cooling.

    Given 10s of millenia, that could well be a natural-selection force-to-be-recon’d-with…

    Other than that, I don’t think they were at any obvious-to-us-now disadvantage, given that the artwork seems equally-advanced, & that is something that takes mental capability

    ( work-through Betty Edwards’ “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, the 4th Definitive Edition”, to experience for yourself what the sentience-shift feels-like, when one gets out from education-pushed language/reductionism mode into wholistic mode…

    I’m autistic, so it didn’t take a few days to reach that, it took 3 years, before my 1st experience of the sentience-shift.

    It’s real.

    The horrid scrawlings in New Scientist Magazine were done by somebody who’d never experienced it in their entire adult-life.

    Here’s a before-that-book’s-training / after-that-book’s-training, with the book’s author, in her “killer class”, gallery, of some of her students: see the mind-healing in the expressions of these people: https://www.drawright.com/before-after )


    The egotism of our view won’t die, though: “God revolves around Man”, “The universe of God revolves around the world of Man”, “only we have souls”, “only we ever had human-sentience”, “only we inhabit the galaxy/universe”, on & on & on…

    ( all of the “only OUR religion is valid, in God’s eyes” narcissism by lots of different populations also goes in that same bin, obviously )

    some day, some evidence is going to poke our racial-ego in the eye, with a “pointed stick” of evidence, and it may well spark global rioting, given the ideological distortion our ego maintains…


    I wish that our habit of presuming that we are the center of validity, & that center is somehow “exclusive” of all other lives, had already been intentionally “put down”, before I’d got to school.

    How awesome it’d have been, to grow-up with schoolbooks which showed that we had equally-valid kin…

    To all Albertans who aren’t living in ideology ( ANY ideology: I now think they’re damned mind-parasites, trying to destroy our world, the same as rabies-viruses collaborate to do-so, to the lives they infect ),

    & there are many, gratitude to you for your culture of saying what you mean, & meaning what you say, which much of the rest of Canada could benefit significantly from…

    I’ve never been there, but an Albertan made a big impression on my mind, decades ago, at an accessibility meeting, then I knew some former-Albertans & they were good people, too, years later.

    Also, there was a program running in Afghanistan, & what it did was it got Afghani people to be employed outside of the drug-industry, & outside of the endless warlordism…

    They sometimes literally paid people to move hills, by hand, if that’s what it took to get people out from the cycles which kept drowning their country…

    It was winning…

    ( then Trump signed an agreement with somebody to pull the US out from Afghanistan, gutting everything )

    I don’t know what that program was called, but it took an Albertan to run it.

    ( read about it perhaps 1.5 decades ago, in some newspaper ).

    Gratitude for that, too.


    ALL of our provinces & territories have ideologues, who try to increase their importance/significance through making themselves look bigger than they are, right?

    We need to out-compete the ideologues.

    That is how we win Natural Selection!
