SCRATCH an American “patriot” and just under the surface is often a big-government liberal with deep trust in federal agencies and the mystique of the American founding.

The “patriot” is easily deceived by mass shooting hoaxes and false flags such as 9/11 because he idolizes government and just can’t accept that so many people working in government have committed treason. He believes if patriots can just get the good guys in office, everything will be okay. He willfully refuses to entertain the idea of organized deception even though it has been practiced by intelligence agencies for many years.

He may idolize the white race and not want to own up to just how corrupt many middle class whites are. Besides some of his friends may be police officers, municipal officials or work for the FBI. They’re decent people so most people in the government must be decent too. Of course, most people who work for the government are decent, but it only takes a few to pull off political theater. And when the money’s good … Many people participating in these deceptions obviously rationalize their behavior and believe they are doing good. 

Also, excuse my bluntness, but many conservatives have let their minds rot and have reduced patriotism and Christianity to childishness, fairy tales and insanity. Here’s a good example: Read More »

TRUMP has told his followers again and again that he’s a snake. Some good points here about his constant snake references.

(But, hey, no one was killed in this hoax or in any of these hoaxes.)

RESEARCHERS have pored over images of the JFK assassination for decades, but that won’t happen with the fake Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. This was too clownish and obvious. It was amateurish political theater and in-your-face mockery of a public that devours lies like sows at a trough of slops.

Here’s some footage of the crowd scene behind the podium. If emergency workers or police officers treated victims of a real shooting the way they treated the fake wounded in Butler, they would instantly lose their jobs. They would face possible lawsuits from family members. Their careers would be over. No EMT ever carries around the injured this way, as if they were nothing but sacks of sand:

Additional footage of this Hoax was released showing off the crisis actors that were supposedly shot in the crowd. There are so many things wrong with this scene – there is zero reality present. The people in the crowd smile, wave their hands around and are pretty comfortable hanging out waiting for direction after ‘bullets’ were just fired. Quite honestly, I’ve seen people react with far more excitement and urgency for the hotdog and beer vendors than I see in this scene. This crowd just supposedly saw someone get shot in the head and bleed out, yet they never move. The police finally come in to tell them to get down, way after the fake gun shots were fired. The emergency protocol is an absolute joke, picking up a person by their jeans, who has been shot in the head, and walking down the metal bleachers and concrete stairs, that’s way beyond fake, that’s just turbo mockery. A f**** you from the JWO. They poured blood all over that crisis actor’s face. Moulage and water bottles for all.

The black guy with the fake blood on his white shirt is Rico Elmore, he holds the office of Rochester Borough Council – Ward 2 (until December 31, 2025).”

This is deception and comedy rolled into one. It doesn’t merit years or even months of study. Trump can tell his followers the moon is made of blue cheese and they will believe it. Not only will they believe it, they will start wearing blue cheese hats. To call them sheep is an insult to sheep, who are more wary of wolves than they are.

What kind of society would produce hundreds of people to participate in this theater and lie to their fellow countrymen for money? A very sick society of low-class traitors.

We see, then, in looking at a chain of lofty hills, and in thinking of their perpetual waste in the service of the lowlands, that the moral and physical worlds are built on the same pattern. They represent the heroes and all-beneficent genius. They receive upon their heads and sides the larger baptisms from the heavens, not to be selfish with their riches, but to give,—to give all that is poured upon them,—yes, and something of themselves with every stream and tide.

                                                                             — Thomas Starr King

THE MOUNTAIN  is so many things at once – a geological event, a meteorological force, a region of staggered botanical zones – that it is easy to forget that it is also a metaphysical event, the object of rich and varied contemplation. Mountains are schools and cathedrals, John Ruskin wrote, and all but the most insensible minds are educated and refined by alpine experiences. Mountains are, as Ruskin put it, “full of treasures of illuminated manuscript for the scholar, kindly in simple lessons to the worker, quiet in pale cloisters for the thinker, glorious in holiness for the worshipper.” In rock and ravine, forest and crag, mountains utter spiritual truths, sermons in stone that can never be fully translated into words.

There are mountains of books about mountains. Many of these are guides about natural history, about the dwarf cinquefoil that grows on alpine slopes, the glacial erratics and krummholz, the wind patterns and ice formations that characterize the higher altitudes. Plenty of other books recount mountain adventures and feats, daring expeditions up Everest or Denali. But it is no so easy to find books about what mountains mean, about their influence on the psyche.

In the mid-nineteenth century, a Unitarian preacher named Thomas Starr King took to rambling through the White Mountains of New Hampshire at a time when alpine jaunts were still relatively new to Americans. The book he wrote recording his research and observations, The White Hills: Their Legends, Landscape and Poetry, was a bestseller at the time it was published in 1859 and it remains, despite its occasional lapses into unrestrained rhapsody, one of the most charming meditations on the beauty and symbolism of mountains.

“VOTERS are addicts. They continue to buy what their dealers sell them. They get high on the lie and crash when reality sets in. Don’t even try to reason with them because they will lash out – at YOU. The turnaround is always ‘just over the horizon.’ Just one more election and then it’ll all be ok.

“It’s obvious things are bad, but lying to oneself and others is the greatest talent of the addict.

“So for now, they will just buy another hit from the pushers by voting harder and trying to drag down everyone around them with their delusions … telling themselves they can quit anytime they want, if things get bad enough.

“It was never supposed to be like this. There are no political solutions because 9 out of 10 people are part of the problem.”

MOST Republicans are too caught up in the afterglow of a fake assassination attempt to care about anti-Christian prayers at the GOP convention.

Here is the latest on the upcoming Olympics in Paris. From The Washington Post:

An age-old form of physical activity is set to make a comeback at this summer’s Paris Olympic Games: sex, or as the French call it, “sport in the room.”

Organizers in the City of Love are not only turning the page on the covid-era intimacy ban imposed on athletes at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 — they plan to make 300,000 condoms available to residents of the Olympic Village.

With that quantity, every resident “will have what they are expecting and what they need,” said Laurent Michaud, director of the Olympic and Paralympic Village, in an interview with Sky News.

If I recall correctly, Benedict XVI said the Olympics were great.

Looking down Lake Street in downtown Owego, New York

[This entry was initially posted on Nov. 9, 2021. Things in Owego might be somewhat different now, but I doubt it.]

OWEGO VILLAGE, NEW YORK is a gem of a small town.

On the lovely green banks of the Susquehanna River in Tioga County, almost a four-hour drive northwest of Manhattan, it features charming nineteenth-century houses — some ornate and stately, others modest but with character, not all in pristine condition but all on tree-lined streets with sidewalks.

My husband and I recently spent a fall day in Owego, enjoying the autumn foliage and visiting with a wonderful friend who lives there.

There’s a little downtown with shops, cafes and modest office buildings in architecturally distinctive buildings, the sort of retail district that is so rare in this age of strip malls. The library, the former school building (now transformed into apartments) and the courthouse date from pre-Communist America and exude the dignity in public service that once characterized public buildings.

Here is a photo of the opening of the J.J. Newberry five and dime store in 1958 on Lake Street in Owego. Read More »

“NEVER again” is the core ideology behind everything happening today.

It’s why we are flooded with brown immigrants.
It’s why they push LGBTQ.
It’s why White people have to hate themselves.

Your country is a brown, White-hating, homosexual hellscape to prevent another “holocaust.”
