I have been thinking about the spirit of these times, which seems to be one of division and no compromises, verging at times towards hatred.
Not the fake “hate” of “hate speech” as fictionalised by the woke, but real hate. Which is a thing to grapple with if you are an adult. A serious topic.
..
Where is it coming from? On the scale of politics, especially American politics, we have Democrats who refer to Republicans as “Deplorables” and who giggle with delight at the idea of the FBI perp walking Republican supporters out of their homes in the early hours for minor or fake charges. The now six year long ridiculous fantasy of Donald Trump behind bars too. Unbelievably, this has been pushed by previously mainstream TV channels. On the other hand, we have Republicans referring to “Demon rats”. And the assumption from the right is that the left consists of various fools and perverts led by outright traitors and criminals. In fact the “criminal” slur is now used to refer to the enemy by all sides at the merest suspicion of malfeasance.
..
Whataboutism reigns supreme. If one of theirs mentions the latest outrage, (real or imagined) by one of ours, then we have a whole library of previous atrocities we can throw back to excuse or derail the current question.
..
Another oldie, but goodie resurrected from the left of the 1960s: if someone nominally on your side balks at supporting one of ours, at any time for any reason, or crosses the aisle on one vote, that person is a RINO or a LINO. A fake, a plant. Or a sucker who just doesn’t understand how the game must be played now, because the other side is despicable and cheating and homicidal and about to usher in a new reign of tyranny.
..
And if they are using the FBI as a new Gestapo, if they do cheat and lie and kill and white ant and wish to change the nation beyond repair and do away with us because we oppose their evil plans, why shouldn’t we respond with hate?
What’s not to hate?
..
What are you on about Arky? All this is well documented. They stole an election, they opened the border, they weaponised the FBI and the IRS. Haven’t you watched CNN and MSNBC and The View and seen how deranged and dangerous and irresponsible the coverage? Can’t you tell what they think of us? Haven’t you seen what they are doing in the schools now?
..
Well yes. That’s the problem. The politically indoctrinated on both sides have come to the conclusion that the other side is evil and must be stopped at almost any cost.
..
What is the absolutely worst thing that can happen to a man?
It is that they get exactly and completely what they think they want and then have to live out the consequences of that reality.
Because in so doing they would realise, as everything turns completely to sh*t, how defective and incomplete their view of the world, their own capacities and their place in things. Because all of us are. Mostly, in almost all things, utterly useless.
..
Nature has provided a solution to this problem. It has designed into the human population such a plethora of different types of utter uselessness that on a whole, in the ongoing battle between all the different ways of thinking, almost always the correct and optimal solution for any set of circumstances eventually emerges.
..
On a more practical level, we could ask if there are any other solutions to the problems posed by the other side, short of immersing ourselves in hatred and all the awfulness that means. Let me list these things and see if there are alternative solutions to stroke inducing anger and hate.
1. Election fraud. You could form an angry mob and March on heaven. Or more usefully you could ensure ahead of times that you have enough observers in place to retard the rate of fraud. If they wait until your count is in to release their count after stuffing the required number of ballots you could delay your count. You could do the hard work of fighting the legal battles before the vote is counted to ensure the count is conducted in as fair a manner as possible. So there is an upcoming election, what should YOU do? Prepare to rage online after it is stolen, or organise yourself to help do the things before hand that ensure as fair as possible a count?
..
2. “They are indoctrinating the school kids. They want a whole generation from which to draw their new cadre”. Well yes, they are doing something almost like that. You need to get your children out of there, and if everyone does the same, then that system will collapse. Problem solved, without the need for angry phone calls to some tutu wearing activist teacher. Conservative, independent Catholic schools. Take your children there after a careful interview to ensure the principal shares your values.
..
3. “They threw that bloke I always used to watch off social media”. Get off social media. It’s run by greedy pricks who sell your data. “That bloke” who you always used to watch has his own website and sponsors. Go there instead.
..
4. “I have to get a toxic shot if I want to keep my job. My employer will sack me and I’ll lose my house”. The problem here isn’t that your employer will sack you if you don’t get a shot. The problem here is that you took a job with an organisation which will sack you if you don’t get the shot. You always were employed by d*cks. Now, at least, you know what they are. Shouldn’t you take steps to ensure your future and find employment with someone who isn’t a fascist d*ck?
..
5. “Arky, isn’t the real problem that we’re moving from a high trust society to a low trust society”? What is “society”? What is your society? Is it everyone in the country? No it isn’t. You CHOOSE your society. You choose where you live, what school your children go to, what media you consume and who your friends are. If you can’t trust any of them, change them.

It isn’t as easy as that. They will bus in kids from bad neighbourhoods in the name of “equality”. Then they’ll re-zone your nice residential area to allow rented blocks of flats full of welfare cases. Your protests will go unheeded or you will be broken in to or have your house set on fire as well as being publicly excoriated for being a “racist”. You may lose your job.

Point 4, Arky. Behind the scenes there are incentives and threats for employers to toe the line so looking for a friendlier employer has only met with targetting of those actual businesses. Tens of thousands of small businesses went under due to the lockdown rules and one way or another being made unable to trade. It rests fairly and squarely with politicians. The culpable poliarticians have been lobbied to death, or rather, wealth, by big business who get a lot of their contracts from government. It’s a big circle using our tax $$.

Doc Coleman:
Doctors and Nurses Betrayed Patients – and Themselves
22ND SEPTEMBER 2022
This article was first published over two years ago – on 12.7.20. Sadly, it remains perfectly valid today.
A growing number of doctors and nurses appear to be waking up and questioning the absence of any science behind the coronavirus hoax.
That’s very nice, and I congratulate them.
But what the devil took them so long?
Why did they wait so long to speak out?
Their silence betrayed their patients, their profession and themselves.
Only a complete moron could have thought that this manufactured ‘crisis’ necessitated the closure of hospitals and GP surgeries.
How could doctors stand by seeing cancer patients deprived of essential treatment? The NHS should have been stoned not clapped.
There was never any greater risk than there is with the flu every year.
Indeed, the figures show that the ordinary flu bug has always posed a much bigger risk than the coronavirus.
So far this year the coronavirus has affected 10 million people worldwide.
The flu can affect 1 billion people in the same period.
And the mortality rates for the two are almost identical.
We don’t close down hospitals and clinics whenever the flu appears.
So, obviously, this was a politically motivated closure of hospitals, shops, businesses and so on. And doctors should have seen that.
And just as the closure of hospitals will result in far more deaths than covid 19 so the wearing of masks will result in far more deaths than could possibly be saved. Wearing a mask reduces blood oxygen levels. I have seen car drivers with masks on. I’ve even seen bus drivers wearing masks. These things reduce blood oxygen. There will, before long, be a disaster with a bus crashing because the driver was wearing a mask and became hypoxic.
Why else do you think governments everywhere admit that people with respiratory or heart problems don’t have to wear a mask?
And the stupid rules about social distancing were never justified. There was never any science to support them.
Anyone who believes in the twin heresies of social distancing and masks is, by definition, either certifiably insane, a cretin or on the dark side of the human race. Most are left wing, pro EU fascists and believers in the climate change nonsense.
Doctors and nurses who are now waking up to the fact that they’ve been tricked are claiming that they were told that if they spoke out they would be punished.
Well, it’s true that the authorities are punishing doctors who dare to question the official line. I know of a doctor in the UK who was struck off the medical register for questioning the coronavirus story. And in the USA Dr Scott Jensen,a doctor who is also a state senator, is being investigated for making statements about the similarity of the coronavirus to the flu and about the way death certificates were being signed.
And it is also true that simple and effective remedies have been banned or demonised simply so that we could all be prepared for the vaccine.
But if most of the doctors in a big hospital spoke out no bureaucrat would dare to strike them all off the register. If 500 doctors stood up for the truth it would be impossible to take away all their licences.
`I work in a hospital,’ wrote one brave NHS employee. ‘So far none of the nurses, doctors or domestics has been off sick. And patients with the coronavirus are transported all around the hospital, to X ray, to CT scan and to the ward and yet mysteriously no one gets infected.’
What sort of spineless people are working in health care these days? That’s the sort of excuse popular with lesser war criminals.
Still, looking on the slightly bright side, some of them are waking up and now realise that the coronavirus hoax was exactly that – a piece of political trickery, conceived and executed by people with hidden agendas. The damage done by the hospital closures will be massive. And the mental issues caused by the fear will be long lasting – even permanent. Millions are suffering from severe depression as a result of the lies that have been told. Suicide rates are going to rocket.
Any doctors who are still social distancing and wearing masks outside the operating theatre should be ashamed of themselves. They, like much of the rest of the population, have been made fools of and if they had any professional pride left they would be red faced, embarrassed by their own gullibility and ashamed of how easily they’ve been made part of a wicked conspiracy and made to look like fools.
Now is the time for the medical and nursing professions to stand up and to demand some answers and explanations from the leaders of their professions and from the administrators who gave the orders which have led to tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths.
They should also insist that hospitals are now opened fully and that patients are told that there is nothing to fear.
For although a growing number of doctors now realise that the coronavirus scare is hoax there are still hospitals and administrators who are behaving as though we were in the middle of an outbreak of the bubonic plague.
The latest piece of lunacy in the NHS is for the people in charge to suggest that patients who want treatment at an Accident and Emergency department should telephone and make an appointment.
NHS England’s national medical director has reportedly told the House of Commons health and social care committee that the health service wanted patients to telephone first and be given a timed slot to attend the A&E department.
I’ve heard everything now.
Patients who are desperate for help, bleeding, in pain, with bones sticking out at funny angles will be expected to telephone and make an appointment to be seen in the accident and emergency department. Triage will, it seems, now be done by teenagers on the telephone. What qualifications will they have? GCSE in woodwork, perhaps?
Distraught relatives will have to telephone and fix an appointment before going to the hospital. Is the plan simply to kill more patients? Did the hospital closures not kill enough?
I will tell you what is going to happen.
Everyone is going to ring for an ambulance. And who can blame them?
As for hospitals, well even the Royal College of Physicians admits that many NHS services will not get back to full capacity for more than a year.
Millions of patients will wait too long. Patients in pain will have to wait for more than a year for treatment. Waiting times will be obscenely long. Tens of thousands will not be seen until it is too late. Tens of thousands of people who could have lived will die.
Around the world the death toll from the hoax will be measured in millions.
Comparatively few will have died of the coronavirus.
The vast majority will have died because they were shut out, abandoned or too frightened to seek help.
And the medical and nursing professions have to take responsibility for all that pain, that sorrow and those deaths.
Doctors should not have accepted the unscientific gibberish behind the coronavirus hoax. Before allowing hospitals to be shut down they should have asked questions. It was never difficult to see that mistakes were being made.
Doctors and nurses betrayed their patients and their professions but they also betrayed themselves.
Too many were happy to accept the weekly applause and the praise when they knew that they deserved neither.
It is time now for the healing professions to make amends.
They should make it clear to the administrators and the politicians that they are no longer prepared to accept the coronavirus nonsense.
They should demand their government’s medical advisors be sacked. They should demand that all members of the elite, medical establishment be sacked too.
They should demand that social distancing be abandoned and that masks should be burned.
They should tell the public that there is nothing to fear.
And they should be prepared to work long hours to clear the backlog of patients as quickly as possible.
There really is no choice.
If doctors and nurses do not stand up then they will be truly unworthy.
This article was originally a script for a YouTube video in July 2020. The video was taken down almost as quickly as it was put up.

Well the other Cat is massively off the pace in relation to Trump.
And if this blog thinks Trump is a twat, I strongly disagree.
I do agree about Kushner however.

They’ve been proclaiming the end of Moore’s ‘Law’ every year for ages, but I think it’s premature to write it off at this stage- all NVIDIA’s announcement means is that they don’t want to play anymore, so may end up undercut by the firms that do. The latest advances in Chip production (such as IBM’s 2nm transistors) still haven’t appeared in consumer tech, & increasing the transistor density & decreased power demands is what has enabled “Moore’s ‘Law’ to continue.

Interesting. Thanks Cold Hands.
I am a bit of an Intel fan, so I am looking forward to Meteor Lake before building my next system.

For Australia, this Optus cyber attack could be one of the worst. How did a company of this size not have good enough security systems in place? The data that has been hacked into covers all the important details about a person.
Companies need to get off their wokeism and just do their jobs.
Optus’ major cyber attack

Is Anthony Albanese the most ignorant person to ever occupy the role of Australian prime minister groovers?
Or is he simply the most arrogant?
Speaking to the BBC in the run-up to the Queen’s funeral, he proclaimed himself ‘comfortable’ with the idea of an interventionist monarch – so long as he was intervening in line with Labor party policies.
Because Mr Albanese views climate change as a threat to the ‘survival of our way of life’ – despite the fact there is no science to back up such an extremist claim – then he is happy for the new monarch to trash the entire concept of a constitutional monarch, and indeed, to tear up our precious 122-year-old Australian constitution.
In its place he proposes the Albanese Doctrine which says that he and he alone can determine what our constitutional monarch may or may not comment upon.
This is not some trivial, legalistic fine point of parliamentary niceties.
This goes to the very heart of our democratic freedoms.
In essence, Anthony Albanese has said, ‘the King must not interfere in our politics unless of course he agrees with me and in that case he must interfere in our politics and support me’.
Has there ever been a more dangerous comment made by an Australian prime minister to the world press?
Or let’s put it another way – according to the Albanese Doctrine and the modern Labor party, something is only political if they say it is political.
It was Humpty Dumpty who explained that ‘words mean what I say they mean’.
It is Anthony Albanese who now proclaims something is ‘only political if I say it is political’.
This isn’t democracy, this is one-party rule and it must be confronted head on and objected to in the strongest language possible.
Imagine, for example, the outcry if Prime Minister John Howard had said, ‘I urge Her Majesty the Queen to speak out in favour of my WorkChoices legislation.’
Imagine if Prime Minister Paul Keating had said, ‘This is the recession Her Majesty says we have to have.’
Imagine if Julia Gillard had said, ‘There will be a carbon tax under a government I lead because the Queen wants us to have one.’
Or if Malcolm Fraser had said, ‘The Queen insisted we get rid of Gough.’
The hypocrisy from Anthony Albanese and all those within the Labor movement who by their silence support his BBC comments is appalling.
Our entire system of government depends on the monarch ensuring the stability of our parliament by never taking sides in any political debates.
That is something Elizabeth Windsor managed almost flawlessly for 70 years, yet our newly installed Prime Minister is now wandering around the corridors of the BBC urging the new King – who has already committed to not pursue such divisive issues – to do exactly that.
Mr Albanese claims that the King has an exemption to speak out on climate issues because climate change affects the ‘very survival of our way of life’.
He’s only partly right.
It is not climate change per se that is an existential threat to our way of life.
Despite the protestations of Extinction Rebellion and other extremists and doom-mongers there is no scientific data that supports that proposition – but what is increasingly a threat to our way of life are those chronic energy shortages exacerbated by the very net-zero policies that Mr Albanese, Chris Bowen and others are recklessly pursuing.
The same polices that the Coalition disgracefully adopted under Scott Morrison at Cop 26 in Glasgow twelve months ago.
CPAC returns
Next weekend, the first and second of October, CPAC returns to Sydney. CPAC is the conservative conference that first gained prominence after Kristina Keneally, at the time an Australian Labor senator, denigrated the conference and called for it to be cancelled.
Naturally, in keeping with her own personal business model, she failed miserably.
Indeed, her interference guaranteed the success and popularity of the conference.
The speakers this year are exceptional, incuding Nigel Farage, environmentalists-turned-nuclear campaigners Michael Shellenberger and Zion Lights, Warren Mundine and Jacinta Price.
