Re: The Wuhan Flu can't be a bioweapon

There is an extraordinary paradox in early media reports of the Wuhan

hazmat avatars are racist

There is the potential for some basis to investigate a possible large
scale pro-Chinese, pro-virus network of individuals within the West...

and ensure that they are employed is positions that won't cause public harm.

The Wuhan Flu can't be a bioweapon

[Ryan Carboni]

The Wuhan Flu can't be a bioweapon, it would be too absurd and stupid
for anyone to weaponize a contagious disease when warfare itself is a
dissolution of borders where nothing can be contained and everyone can
potentially be impacted equally.

As a private citizen, I think it absurd that Wuhan, the provincial
capital of Hubei, can't be mentioned when their own fellow Chinese in
Jiangxi distrust the Hubei police in regulating the flow of people
between provinces. To quote Thomas Jefferson: "To give praise which is
not due might be well from the venal, but would ill beseem those who
are asserting the rights of human nature."

I do not think that leadership involves much ability, it is mostly
cutting checks and telling people to do the obvious. I do believe in
free speech, wherever, including in the bedrooms, but ill-mannered
statements on certain topics should be a disqualifier for being in
certain positions of trust, or at least require checks against
potentially harmful decisions. It is unclear why genuine and valid
criticisms of authority has become so scarce.

I seriously hate you all, but not in that way, and hope everyone can
mutually respect each other.

Celine's Laws

[Ryan Carboni]

CELINE'S LAWS
  by  Hagbard Celine

   As  every thinking person has noticed, our national  life  has
become increasingly weird and surrealistic.  The waiting lines at
banks  and  post offices are growing longer all  the  time,  even
though  demographers tell us US population is no  longer  rising.
The  street  signs more often than not say WALK on  the  red  and
DON"T  WALK  on  the  green.  You can't  get  a  plumber  on  the
weekends.  Nobody has been able to explain the cattle mutilations
yet.   Every survey shows that the price of consumer  goods,  the
number  of violent crimes, and the eerie popularity of  THE  GONG
SHOW are ominously accelerating.
   I  believe  I  have found the  explanation  these  distressing
trends.   Needless to say, I cannot present, in a short  article,
all  the  evidence which I have accumulated in three  decades  of
careful  metasociological research; that will have to  await  the
publication  of  my three-volume study, "Why Everybody  Is  Going
Bonkers."   Here  I  can  only mention  the  thousands  of  depth
interviewws,   the   innumerable  flowcharts   and   helix-matrix
equations,  the  vast  files of computer readouts,  the  I  CHING
divinations,  and  other rigorous scientific techniques  used  in
developing  what I modestly call Celine's Laws of Chaos,  Discord
and Confusion.
   Celine's  First  Law is that National Security  is  the  chief
cause of national insecurity!
That may sound like a paradox, but I will explain it at one.
   Every secret police agency must be monitored by an elite corps
of secret-police-of-the-second-order.  There are numerous reasons
for this, but three are especially noteworthy.

NATIONAL SECURITY IS THE CHIEF CAUSE OF NATIONAL INSECURITY!!!
***

1).  Infiltration  of  the  secret police,  for  the  purpose  of
subversion,   will   always   be  a  prime   goal   of   internal
revolutionaries.  This is an ordinary part of the  spy-counterspy
game.   There  is nothing Weather Underground would  like  better
than having a few agents in the FBI or CIA, for the same  reasons
that  the FBI or CIA would like to have a few agents  in  Weather
Underground.

2).   Such  infiltration  will also be a prime  goal  of  hostile
foreign powers, for the same reasons.

   Please  note that these are simple facts of the  secret-police
game, well-known even to the general public, the subject of  many
ingenious  plots  in  popular spy  films,  and  not  particularly
alarming...yet.Nonetheless,  the  seeds  of  Chaos,  Discord,
Confusion,  and Paranoia are already here, for the simple  reason
that  once  a  human  being develops  the  habits  of  worry  and
suspicion,  he  or she finds increasing justifications  for  more
worry and more suspicion.  For instance, Richard Q. (not his real
initial),  one of my interview subjects, became concerned,  after
ten  years  in the CIA, with the possibility of  infiltration  by
"extraterrestrial"  agents.   He was eventually retired  when  he
began  to  claim that demons in the form of dogs  wanted  him  to
assassinate Laverne and Shirley.

3).   Secret-police  officials acquire  fantastic  capacities  to
blackmail and intimidate others in goverment.

   Stalin  executed three chiefs of his secret police in  a  row,
because  of this danger.  One of my informants claims that  every
president since the National Security Act was passed in 1947  has
learned  how to have sexual intercourse without making  a  single
audible sound, because of the possible electronic  eavesdroppers.
As Nixion says so wistfully on the Watergate transcripts,  "Well,
Hoover performed.  He would have fought.  That was the point.  He
would  have  defied a few people.  He would have scared  them  to
death.   HE HAS A FILE ON EVERYBODY!" .  Thus,  those
who  employ secret-police organizations MUST monitor them  th  be
sure they are not acquiring too much power.
   In  the United States today, the superelite that monitors  the
CIA  is the National Security Agency. ( And a group  called  "The
Store" monitors the NSA).
   Here  is  where a sinister infinite regress enters  the  game.
Any  such elite, second or third order secret-police agency  must
be, according to the above pragmatic and necessary rules, subject
to infiltration by native subversives or hostile foreign  powers,
or  to acquiring "too much power" in the opinion of its  masters.
(It  may  even  be  subject, if Richard Q.  was  correct  in  his
anxieties,  to extraterrestrial manipulation).  And so, it,  too,
must be monitored by a secret police of the third order.

But this third-order secret-police (such as Nixon's notorious
"plumbers",  or more currently, "The Store"). is also subject  to
infiltration  or  to acquiring too much  power...and  thus,  with
relentless logic, the 

Dysfunctional Decision-making

[Ryan Carboni]

Every society is run by an increasingly small number of cynical
decision-makers. Barring a change of circumstance where cynicism is
discouraged, their actions and plans are ultimately rewarded, and more
power is accrued to them. Success begets success.

Secrecy and immorality is incompatible with a free society, a free
press is necessary to provide the necessary information for which
society's members can decide the direction society may go. However if
the response to a given event is to claim that it isn't happening,
this constrains the freedom of action by which society's leaders can
devote resources to an issue.

Furthermore, it is the interests of cynical decision-makers in the
accrual of power to alter society so that various leaders are cowardly
and so unlikely to take an unprecedented action. Organizations that
operate in accordance to inertia can be easily predicted and
deviations from a course can be noticed and responded to accordingly.

This is paradoxically incompatible with long-term stability, the
people who desire access to the levers of power do not disappear, and
if they did, cynical decision-makers do not make up a majority of
society's members, they themselves are constrained from making public
decisions or actions that would in it self be threatening and lead to
a reaction by society's leaders to effect their removal out of a
desire for self-preservation (unless it was sufficiently clear that
ambition was not synonymous with hazard).

Thus even the response to threats to a political order is constrained
by perceptions, and this in turn constrains the allocation of
resources to respond. The press, if dedicated to preserving the
current political order, cannot describe a threat to the political
order in terms that would allow for the threat to expand in support
beyond society itself is willing to provide in responding to it.

Every lock has play. The only lock that cannot be picked is one that
cannot be opened.

Stanislaw Lem on Packaging Materials

[Ryan Carboni]

Our mighty civilization strives for the production of commodities as
impermanent as possible in packaging as permanent as possible. The
impermanent product must soon be replaced by a new one, and this is
good for the economy; the permanence of the packaging, on the other
hand, makes its disposal difficult, and this promotes the further
development of technology and organization. Thus the consumer copes
with each consecutive article of junk on an individual basis, whereas
for the removal of the packaging; special antipollution programs are
required, sanitary engineering, the coordination of efforts, planning,
purification and decontamination plants, and so on.

Carbon Negative?

[Ryan Carboni]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azolla_event
Azolla has been deemed a "super-plant" as it can draw down as much as
a tonne of nitrogen per acre per year (0.25 kg/m2/yr); this is matched
by 6 tonnes per acre of carbon drawdown (1.5 kg/m2/yr). Its ability to
use atmospheric nitrogen for growth means that the main limit to its
growth is usually the availability of phosphorus: carbon, nitrogen and
sulphur being three of the key elements of proteins, and phosphorus
being required for DNA, RNA and in energy metabolism. The plant can
grow at great speed in favourable conditions – modest warmth and 20
hours of sunlight, both of which were in evidence at the poles during
the early Eocene – and can double its biomass over two to three days
in such a climate.

The Fates of American Presidents Who Challenged the Deep State

[Ryan Carboni]

https://apjjf.org/2014/12/43/Peter-Dale-Scott/4206.html

I believe that a significant shift in the relationship between public
and deep state power occurred in the 1960s and 1970s, culminating in
the Reagan Revolution of 1980. In this period five presidents sought
to curtail the powers of the deep state. And as we shall see, the
political careers of all five—Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford and
Carter—were cut off in ways that were unusual. One president, Kennedy,
was assassinated. Another, Nixon, was forced to resign.

To some extent the interplay of these two forms of power and political
organization is found in all societies. The two were defined by Hannah
Arendt in the 1960s as “persuasion through arguments” versus “coercion
by force.” Arendt, following Thucydides, traced these to the common
Greek way of handling domestic affairs, which was persuasion (πείθειν)
as well as the common way of handling foreign affairs, which was force
and violence (βία)." The two represent not just different techniques
of government but different cultures and mindsets, in fundamental
tension with each other.

This tension increases, and predictably tips toward violence, if a
well-organized open community expands beyond its own borders and is
increasingly occupied with the business of supervising an empire. It
is repeatedly the case that progressive societies (like America)
expand. As their influence expands, their democratic institutions,
based at bottom upon persuasive power among equals, are supplemented
by new, often secret, institutions of top-down violent power for the
control of alien populations abroad, often speaking different and
unfamiliar languages. The more the society expands, the more these
institutions of violent power encroach upon and supplant the original
democracy.

Excerpts from Machiavelli's Discourse on Livy

[Ryan Carboni]

https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Discourses_on_Livy/Third_Book/Chapters_I-VII

THAT WHICH MAKES A KING LOSE THE KINGDOM THAT WAS INHERITED BY HIM

Tarquinius Superbus having killed Servius Tullus, and the latter not
leaving any heirs, he (Tarquinius) came to possess the kingdom with
security, not having to fear those things which had harmed his
predecessors. And although the manner of his occupying the kingdom was
irregular and odious, none the less had he observed the ancient
institutions of the other Kings, he would have been tolerated, and the
Senate and Plebs would never have arisen against him and taken the
State away from him. This man, therefore, was not driven out because
of his son Sextus having violated Lucretia, but for having broken the
laws and governed it (his Kingdom) tyrannically; having taken away all
authority from the Senate and assumed it himself, and those funds
which were marked for public improvements with which the Roman Senate
was satisfied, he diverted to the building of his own palace, with
disgust and envy for him resulting. So that in a very short time, he
despoiled Rome of all that liberty which she had maintained under the
other previous Kings. And it was not enough for him to make the
Fathers (Senators) his enemies, but he aroused the Plebs against
himself, working them hard in mechanical labor and all unlike those
which his predecessors had employed. So that by having filled Rome
with such cruel and haughty examples of his, he had already disposed
the minds of all the Romans to rebellion whenever they should have the
opportunity. And if the incident of Lucretia had not happened, even so
another would have arisen which would have produced the same result:
For if Tarquin had lived like the other Kings and his son Sextus had
not made that error, Brutus and Collatinus would have had recourse to
Tarquin for vengeance against Sextus, and to the Roman People.

Princes should understand, therefore, that they begin to lose the
State from that hour when they begin to break the laws and ancient
institutions under which men have lived for a long time. And if as
private citizens, having lost the State, they should ever become so
prudent to see with what facility Principalities are kept by those who
are counselled wisely, they would regret their loss much more, and
would condemn themselves to greater punishment than that to which
others have condemned them: For it is much more easy to be loved by
the good than the bad, and to obey the laws then to enforce them. And
in wanting to learn the course that they should have to hold to do
this, they do not have to endure any other hardship than to mirror for
themselves the lives of good Princes, such as Timoleon the Corinthian,
Aratus the Sicyonian, and similar ones, in the lives of whom they
would find as much security and satisfaction to him who ruled as to he
who is ruled; so that they ought to want to imitate him, being able to
do so for the reasons mentioned: For men when they are well governed,
do not seek or desire any other liberty; as happened to the people
governed by the above named (Princes), whom they constrained to be
Princes as long as they lived, even though they often had been tempted
to return to private life.

And as in this and the two preceding chapters, there has been
discussed the dispositions aroused against Princes, and of the
Conspiracy made by the sons of Brutus against their country, and of
those made against Tarquinius Priscus and Servius Tullus, it does not
appear to me to be something outside this subject to speak at length
of them in the following chapter, being a matter worthy of being noted
by Princes and Private Citizens.

OF CONSPIRACIES

And it does not appear proper to me to omit the discussion of
Conspiracies, being a matter of so much danger to Princes and Private
Citizens. For it is seen that many more Princes have lost their lives
and States through them, than by open war. For it is conceded only to
a few to be able to make open war against a Prince, but the ability to
conspire against them is conceded to everyone. On the other hand,
private citizens do not enter in an enterprise more perilous nor more
foolhardy than this, as it is difficult and most dangerous in all of
its parts. Whence it happens that many are attempted, and very few
have the desired ending. So that, therefore, Princes may learn to
guard themselves from these dangers, and that Private Citizens may
less rashly engage in them, and rather may learn to live contentedly
under the Rule that has been assigned to them by chance and by their
state, I shall speak widely, not omitting any notable case, in
documenting the one and the other. And truly that sentence of
Cornelius Tacitus is golden, which says that men have to honor things
past but obey the present, and ought to desire good Princes, but
tolerate the ones they have. And truly, whoever does otherwise, most
of the time will ruin himself and his country.

We ought, therefore, ((in entering

America, people know they aren't referring to the continent, when
Americans are wronged, our government redresses their concerns, when
we travel abroad, everyone accepts American cash. We attract the

Some of these people are stupid enough to agree to calling cocaine
cheese pizza as a code name.

In a proper revolution these people would all be squeezed out for
their incompetence (in a totalitarian revolution, random people would
be taken off the street to fill their jobs).  It is unlikely that
would ever happen, but the argument that you know what kind of
criminal someone is by hanging around them from time to time is a bit
incredible.

It is still a bit funny that none of these people are capable of
handling their own affairs to the extent that they can't rent out
mansions to host their own parties using their own staff, or even talk
to the help to see if they are treated fairly, or even legalize
cocaine in a small portion of their own cities.

https://www.aclu.org/blog/national-security/privacy-and-surveillance/police-hide-use-cell-phone-tracker-courts-because

The power of stingrays, and the lengths to which police will go to
conceal their use, are demonstrated by an ongoing case in Florida,
State v. Thomas. As revealed in a recent opinion of a Florida appeals
court, Tallahassee police used an unnamed device — almost certainly a
stingray — to track a stolen cell phone to a suspect’s apartment. (The
case’s association with stingrays was first pointed out by CNET’s
Declan McCullagh in January). They then knocked on the door, asked
permission to enter and, when the suspect’s girlfriend refused, forced
their way inside, conducted a search, and arrested the suspect in his
home. Police opted not to get warrants authorizing either their use of
the stingray or the apartment search. Incredibly, this was apparently
because they had signed a nondisclosure agreement with the company
that gave them the device. The police seem to have interpreted the
agreement to bar them even from revealing their use of stingrays to
judges, who we usually rely on to provide oversight of police
investigations.

https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/bureau-prisons-tests-micro-jamming-technology-south-carolina-prison-prevent-contraband-cell

This week, the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) conducted a pilot test
of micro-jamming technology at the Broad River Correctional
Institution in Columbia, S.C.  The test – the first collaboration of
this kind in a state corrections facility – was conducted to determine
if micro-jamming could prevent wireless communication by inmates using
contraband cellphones in a housing unit.   This test follows two
earlier tests at a federal corrections facility in Cumberland,
Maryland.

Contraband cellphones present an ongoing safety and correctional
security concern for the public as well as for correctional facilities
across the country.  Contraband cellphones have been used to run
criminal enterprises, distribute child pornography, and facilitate the
commission of violent crimes—all while inmates are incarcerated.  In
South Carolina, officials attributed the deadly April 15, 2018 prison
riot in part to contraband cellphones.  And on March 5, 2010, a South
Carolina inmate ordered a hit on a 15-year corrections veteran from
behind bars.  He was shot six times and severely wounded.

Ronald Reagan came to power through illegitimate means

[Ryan Carboni]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opposition_research
In preparation for Ronald Reagan’s debate with President Jimmy Carter
in the presidential race 1980, Reagan’s campaign staff acquired under
mysterious circumstances a 200-page briefing book, including
information on Carter’s strategy, which staffers David Stockman and
David Gergen had used to prepare Reagan. The Federal Bureau of
Investigation and the Justice Department investigated to see how the
information had been obtained by the Reagan camp. Two law professors
filed suit in federal district court in Washington to request a
special investigation, based on the 1978 Ethics in Government Act.
Carter’s staff believed the book to have been stolen from the White
House, but the inquiry did not uncover any credible evidence that any
law had been violated. The House of Representatives conducted its own
investigation, and concluded in a 2,314-page report that the Reagan
staff had two copies of the book, one from Reagan’s campaign director
William J. Casey, future head of the Central Intelligence Agency.
James Baker attributed the acquisition of the documents to Casey, who
claimed to know nothing about them, and an analysis of Carter campaign
documents found in the “Afghanistan” files of Reagan aide David Gergen
indicated they came from three White House offices: the National
Security Council, Vice President Walter Mondale and Domestic Adviser
Stuart Eizenstat. Many years afterward, Carter himself stated in a PBS
interview that the book had been taken by columnist George Will, but
Will denied it, calling Carter "a recidivist liar."

Nazis were still killing Americans after WWII

[Ryan Carboni]

https://www.voltairenet.org/article167692.html

Marvin Washington Brooks had been terribly ill for nearly three
months. A year prior in early-1952, he had been diagnosed with cancer
and had been admitted as “a patient for treatment” to the University
of Texas Medical School’s M.D. Anderson Hospital. Brooks had served as
an infantryman in the Army during World War II. He had received a
Purple Heart for being wounded during the Battle of the Bulge. Not
long after he was admitted to the M.D. Anderson Hospital, Brooks began
to receive weekly treatment from a team of physicians led by an older
doctor with a heavy German accent and three distinctive scars across
his face. Brooks was told the treatment could significantly affect his
cancer in positive ways. But Brooks had become increasingly ill, with
constant vomiting, weight and hair loss, and patchy skin with large
areas appearing as if severely sunburned. Within about six months of
the weekly treatment, Brooks was in constant pain. He died the first
month of 1955, two days before what would have turned 47 years old.
Brooks was never informed that he was one of 263 cancer patients who
were secretly being experimented upon with “whole body irradiation.”
Brooks, nor his wife or family, had ever been consulted about the
experiments. Nor had Brooks, or anyone else, given the hospital
permission to experiment on him. Nobody ever told Brooks, or anyone in
his family, that the German physician who saw him weekly was Dr.
Herbert Bruno Gerstner, a former Nazi doctor who had been secretly
brought to the United States in 1949.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedro_Albizu_Campos

Dr. Orlando Daumy, a radiologist and president of the Cuban Cancer
Association, traveled to Puerto Rico to examine him. From his direct

specific conclusions:

1) that the sores on Albizu Campos were produced by radiation burns
2) that his symptoms corresponded to those of a person who had
received intense radiation,
3) that wrapping himself in wet towels was the best way to diminish
the intensity of the rays.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Superman_(radio_series)#%E2%80%9CClan_of_the_Fiery_Cross%E2%80%9D


In 1946, the series delivered a powerful blow against the Ku Klux
Klan's prospects in the northern US. The human rights activist Stetson
Kennedy infiltrated the KKK and other racist/terrorist groups.
Concerned that the organization had links to the government and police
forces, Kennedy decided to use his findings to strike at the Klan in a
different way. He contacted the Superman producers and proposed a
story where the superhero battles the Klan. Looking for new villains,
the producers eagerly agreed. To that end, he provided information—
including secret codewords and details of Klan rituals—to the writers.
The result was a series of episodes, “Clan of the Fiery Cross”, in
which Superman took on the Klan. Kennedy intended to strip away the
Klan's mystique. The trivialization of the Klan's rituals and
codewords had a negative impact on Klan recruiting and membership.

Or crazy to think that anyone on the internet could be a dog or a
member of a massive international sex cult.

The internet is very strange.

I'm concerned about small arms proliferation

[Ryan Carboni]

It looks like it only costs a few million dollars to overthrow a
government in charge of several million people.

C-4 costs $32 per kilo?

https://archive.org/details/TowerCommission/page/n257

Airlift #2 - March 1985
750,000 rounds 7.62x39 ...  $210,000
1,000 RPG-7 grenades . 265,000
8,910 hand grenades  84,645
60 - 60mm mortars  96,000
1,472 kgs C-4  47,104



This is no doubt an issue of public concern. Does Bellingcat know
anything more about arms proliferation than a few random pictures of
cargo ships at port?

I'm now a member of a pagan sex cult

[Ryan Carboni]

At least the conditions required for the world to be run by
psychosexual nutcases no longer exists.

https://qz.com/1768545/hinduisms-kali-is-the-feminist-icon-the-world-desperately-needs/
Kali is the quintessential embodiment of shakti, female power. She
emerges as an independent goddess around 1000 BCE and evolves as a
controversial character: she is a scary, bloodthirsty embodiment of
destruction, and the ultimate protector against evil. She is spiritual
and bodily, erotic and sexual and as such, courageous: in the Tantrik
cults that revolve around her, eroticism is primarily a way of
confronting one’s deepest fears.

Repeat of the XYZ Affair?

[Ryan Carboni]

Something reminded me of the XYZ Affair, something I read from the
chapters of my history textbook that my middle school class skipped.
No one is going to condemn our government for behaving like the old
corrupt monarchies that the American spirit inherently despises.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment_inquiry_against_Donald_Trump
Sondland, Volker, and Perry, who called themselves the "three amigos"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XYZ_Affair
An American diplomatic commission was sent to France in July 1797 to
negotiate a solution to problems that were threatening to break out
into war. The diplomats, Charles Cotesworth Pinckney, John Marshall,
and Elbridge Gerry, were approached through informal channels by
agents of the French foreign minister, Talleyrand, who demanded bribes
and a loan before formal negotiations could begin. Although such
demands were not uncommon in mainland European diplomacy of the time,
the Americans were offended by them, and eventually left France
without ever engaging in formal negotiations.

I don't need an editor

[Ryan Carboni]

I don't need an editor, particularly one who thinks two things are
equivalent only in a smirking sense. I doubt this is a situation one
should implicitly trust the law at its word. There have been supreme
court cases on who can make final decisions on publication, but those
don't apply because they are inconvenient and don't deal with exactly
the same matter.

Re: Clean Coal?

[Ryan Carboni]

Given that most if not all conspiracy theories come from the US
government to make other groups look bad or confuse the situation, it
becomes very easy to eschew responsibility in everything.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Contra_affair
Canham-Clyne argued that for the "national security state", the law
was an obstacle to be surmounted rather than something to uphold and
that the Iran–Contra affair was just "business as usual", something he
asserted that the media missed by focusing on the NSC having "gone
operational."

Clean Coal?

[Ryan Carboni]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_Species_Program

What is the energy return on investment when extreme weather events
double, wells become brackish, the Great Plains becomes the American
Sahara, etc But there are think tanks thinking about what to do
afterward, nothing about prevention.

Well it doesn't matter, for some reason Iran released their hostages
when Reagan inaugurated, and then the US sold Iran anti air missiles
which weigh half a tonne each. Whatever is going on is never going to
make sense, beyond a massive case of procrastination.

America is a nation of immigrants

[Ryan Carboni]

America is a nation of immigrants, there are two common reasons for
people to immigrate to America.

The first reason is when people who have the unfortunate problem of
speaking their mind had to leave for one reason or another.

The second reason are those who believe America is the land of
opportunity (which is only valid if you were born in a medieval dirt
hovel and think anything is better than that).

There is only government for people like that, and it certainly
doesn't involve a rotating clique of genitalia evaluated to be
exquisite. The past fifty years revealed what options are available,
and they are all terrible. The current leaders don't care that events
escalated to any point, they don't care about any desired aims, and
they don't care about anything but protecting their positions, even if
the chance that they would be removed will remain at zero.

Re: Best Ayn Rand Quotes

[Ryan Carboni]

Ayn Rand was the most dangerous thing to ever come out of the Soviet
Union. If her ideas were to be adopted, this country would collapse
within less than five years.

Heinlein was better: "Morals — all correct moral laws — derive from
the instinct to survive. Moral behavior is survival behavior above the
individual level."

vs... whatever Rand meant by this:

"The army of a free country has a great responsibility: the right to
use force, but not as an instrument of compulsion and brute conquest —
as the armies of other countries have done in their histories — only
as an instrument of a free nation's self-defense, which means: the
defense of a man's individual rights. The principle of using force
only in retaliation against those who initiate its use, is the
principle of subordinating might to right. The highest integrity and
sense of honor are required for such a task. No other army in the
world has achieved it. You have. "

The media should do a followup interview of popsicle man

[Ryan Carboni]

https://nypost.com/2015/12/06/reporter-accused-of-taking-popsicle-from-california-killers-home/

The British tabloid reporter who was dubbed “Popsicle guy” after he
left the San Bernardino shooter’s home with an orange object causing
speculation he had taken a frozen treat from the apartment, defended
himself Sunday.

Toby Harnden, who works for The Sunday Times of London, explained he
was just helping the landlord with a screwdriver before he was labeled
the “iced lolly” bandit Friday.

“The FBI made clear they no longer saw it as a crime scene, and Doyle
Miller, 81, did not have the strength to remove the boards,” Harnden
wrote of the elderly landlord in Sunday’s paper. “So I took an orange
screwdriver from him and did it myself.”




Also, the FBI lied. There are probably several hundred Al Qaeda
operatives in the US under the direction of the US government.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_San_Bernardino_attack

Comey has said that although the investigation has shown that the
couple was radicalized and possibly inspired by foreign terrorist
organizations, there is no indication that they were directed by such
a group or part of a broader cell or network.

Seagram’s heiress may get $200K from sale of Nxivm properties

[Ryan Carboni]

No big deal. Just your daily average sex cult connected to highly
influential people.

The government is wasting an incredible amount of time that they will
never decide to use towards solving such a widespread and incredible
number of crimes by the elite.

And I'm not talking about illegal exotic meats or creepy sex parties,
they can keep those. Rape and murder are particularly heinous crimes.


https://nypost.com/2019/12/26/seagrams-heiress-may-get-200k-from-sale-of-nxivm-properties-court-docs/

The properties included offices for Nxivm’s “Executive Success
Programs” — which is where the Bronfman sisters, daughters of the late
billionaire Edgar Bronfman, fell in with Raniere in the early 2000s.

Bronfman-Igtet eventually married wealthy Libyan businessman Basit
Igtet and moved to France — while her sister remained in Raniere’s
inner circle, using the family’s considerable fortune to help bankroll
Nxivm.

Raniere, Clare Bronfman and several other high-ranking Nxivm members
were busted in 2018 for their involvement in the purported self-help
organization, after members came forward to claim they were turned
into “slaves,” forced to have sex with Raniere and brand their bodies
with his initials.

Bronfman, 40, pleaded guilty in April to conspiring to conceal and
keep an illegal immigrant for personal gain and fraudulent use of
identification. She is slated to be sentenced on Feb. 14, 2020.

Re: 'Shattered': Inside the secret battle to save America's undercover spies in the digital age

[Ryan Carboni]

To be more serious, that article just rehashes what was said before.
People keep saying it, and somehow... nothing happens.

Isn't espionage supposed to be some kind of shell game, not a numbers racket?

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/02/the-top-secret-nunes-memo-illustrates-abuse-of-our-intelligence-classification-system.html

Robin Raphel—a former U.S. ambassador to Pakistan—had her career
destroyed because the FBI suspected she was spilling secrets to the
Pakistanis. One of the claims made against her was that she was
speaking with Pakistani officials about speculation that there may be
a coup, information that the intelligence community deemed classified.
But speculation of a coup was prevalent in the Pakistani media and
within cross-government channels; all Raphel was doing was discussing
the issues of the day with her foreign counterparts.

Classification can also be abused to avoid oversight and wield power
over Congress. If you are a senator, unless you work on the
Intelligence Committee, are part of the leadership, or are the chair
or ranking member of the Foreign Relations or Armed Services
committees, your staff does not have the highest level of clearance.
Many executive branch briefings to members of Congress are at this
highest classification level, partially to protect information but
also to keep staff out. So, even if a member gains access to key
information that should be further investigated, she cannot share it
with anyone who works for her, making it nearly impossible to follow
up and exercise proper oversight.

This paucity of clearances stands in sharp contrast to the executive
branch, where thousands of people hold the highest level of clearance
and have easy access to facilities and computers that enable their
review of classified materials, and where millions of dollars are
invested annually in protecting and expanding these resources. On
Capitol Hill, there are few such facilities where classified
information can be discussed or worked on.

And yet, for all these security measures, major breaches via Edward
Snowden, Russian spying, or a Chinese heist of thousands of personnel
records continue.
