Solution to most of humanity’s problems is publically available identification of all psychopaths / sociopaths. Identifying one whole group as causative of societies evils is irrational in that it emotionally stirs the whole group into opposition.
A cheap cell phone ap using, say, pupil dilation / contraction with certain
images / phrases would be a start in immediate identification of psychopaths / sociopaths / dysfunctionals. Another method of identification would be noticing who opposes this identification effort. Most of us (90+%) are good, or at least not bad. If left alone we naturally create prosperity, peace, and happiness. Still, great article Linh!
Traditional Chinese music, both instrumental and vocal, was just terrible to hear. They have really upgraded both in classical and popular music. Music definitely has a huge influence on a countries attitudes, motivations, and cultural unity. Other major aspects of the traditional Chinese culture, such as plays, seemed just as boring. Wow…have they been upgrading, especially in cinema! Still not as good as South Korea but really improving. Digital media is apparently a huge addiction problem in China, as actual digital addiction centers there treat large numbers of people for it. On the flip side, this implies that 100’s of millions of Chinese will tend to become addicted to on-line education in math, science, technology, information, and career skill improvement,…. as I and many of you readers here are. Last point, the Chinese had tea for 1000’s of years which allowed improved mental focus leading to greater cultural, economic, and military achievements. Now at last, they have and can afford the world’s most premier drug to make the most boring tasks exciting, enhance mental ability, and give emotional happiness …
COFFEE!
You have courage to write an article like this, probably because there aren’t enough honest & courageous high I.Q. people around to support Your views. Really, we’re scared of the not too smart people. They tend to group think, and are such a large percent of the population, that if honest views such as yours are expressed, we put ourselves at risk.
The author should do much better research before he educates the rest of us. North Korea is no longer launching ICBMs into the Sea of Japan. N. Korea is no longer doing nuclear testing. N. & S. Korea are talking to each other now. Terrorist groups in Syria & Iraq are largely crushed. U.S. planes are no longer bombing empty desert in Syria to pretend they are doing something beneficial. Instead, they have actually bombed the pyschopath invaders in that country. Do you really think President Donald Trump’s orders for launching of cruise missiles was meant to strike some ancient Syrian air force planes? Research what they really targeted. Also, research the defeatist restrictions the former American administration placed on our military’s handling of Afganistan versus the realistic but civilian and military casualty lowering policies now being used & developed. How can you ignore results while just quoting numbers? Anyone can subvert numbers/ statistics to support their biases / agendas. That said, if you do great research and aren’t fired from your job for publishing it, your writing talents could be valuable to human awakening.
Education once was life enhancing for students because it provided skills they could use. Education now is mostly profitable only to those employed in educating because it largely does not provide useful skills to students. Most 4 year degrees could be taught in 2, most 2 year degrees in 1, etc. The price of education could easily be cut in half or more. Students could then be spending the wasted 2 years of a 4 year program working and earning money and getting job skills. They also would vastly reduce their indoctrination time under professors of neo-marxist leanings who have never had a real job. Of course, STEM & similiar education students would benefit too, as those in these disciplines would then focus on subjects that have some meat on them
After reading the article and the comments, the reoccurring priority for humanity, the elephant in the room so to speak, pops up its obvious head. Humans are taught from an early age… by media, public institutions, and other powerful influences, to be de-ceivable. The solution to most of humanities problems is to reverse this and prioritize discernment… or the recognition of the deception. This is actually already happening as we formerly ignorant, foolish, and duped peasants learn to use cell phone cameras, social media, other technologies; and can thus same-time expose the lies and villainous behavior of the powerful. We billions are getting smarter, literally, and are learning not to be manipulated by the pyschopaths.
By the way, I am a strong Trump supporter.
Is North Korea still launching missiles or testing Nukes? Is the Deep state’s proxy horrific Syrian / Iraq war largely defunded, de-weaponized, and contained? Are Soros, the Rothchilds, and Clintons increasingly disempowered, defunded, and publically exposed? Is the controlled, presstituted, and propagandistic media hemorrhaging viewers? What changed? Was it the ever increasing transfer of power to members of the “Plan” for whom President Donald Trump is the Spearpoint and observable Face? … Do memorizers just memorize and emotionally regurgitate what they’re told / see? Would you instead prefer being a Thinker that asks your own questions? How does the TRUTH set you free? After the Truth sets you free, do you ever want you mind enslaved by mind controlling mainstream media propaganda again?
Good Luck all to you Thinkers!
This was good, really good. Mr Unz, you have a gift for writing. Of course other commenters may emotionally moan about one part of your article, or say that another part is factually inaccurate, but those kind of comments just go with writing about out-of-the-mental-box concepts. This was a great read. Keep it up.
The author is largely correct.
Solutions?….Break up the tech giants. Use anti-trust laws against them. Use the NSA to eavesdrop on the the “Masters of the Universe” and use the threat of public exposure of perversions and depravities found as leverage against them (Oh wait, is already happening!??).
Also, a cell phone ap could be released to publically reveal pyschopath, sociopath, narcissistic, deviate, etc excessive traits in technology, business, and political leaders. Then all of we previously ignorant peasants could have this of ultmost important information to help us know which button to push at the election polls.
I continue to admire President Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Xi of China. WHY?….because RESULTS matter more than opinions on internet websites, T.V., or in printed publications.
N. Korea has stopped performing ICBM or nuke tests, a less extremist regime change “coup” took place in Saudi Arabia, financing/ weapons flows / intelligence to Syrian terrorists has dried up with resulting collapse of ISIS, Iran is threatening to release the names of European & American politicians who previously made millions / billions off the Iran nuke deal if it is dropped, Harvey Weinstein, Allison Mack, and “Weiner” were untouchable before Trump, the list just goes on and continues to get bigger.
A major reason for admiration of Putin is that the Mainstream Media (MSM) can’t stop demonizing him. So of course I’m logically led to believe that he is mostly a good guy since the MSM has proven itself repeatedly to distort the Truth. Putin also largely ended the oligarchs power, doubled Russian citizens income, used an tiny Russian military in Syria to gradually reverse ISIS expansion there, improved Russia’s internal manufacturing, agricultural, mining, and technological research/ development, intellectually crushed international debate opponents repeated using only logic and facts (You should watch the videos!), built / rebuilt over 10 thousand churches, has patriotic Muslims (Crimea) fighting for Russia in Syria, etc. etc. Xi of China has pretty impressive creditials but this post is overly long anyway.
RESULTS CANT MORE THAN WORDS!
I like Peterson’s and McDonald’s work. Nobody is perfect, but both authors offer out of the box thinking which creates mental exercise which improves my thinking. The trick is to just listen and not memorize concepts
It’s like good classical music, dont try to figure it out, just listen. Then later self examine to see if you become better for it.
You know, you could do a lot worse than Peterson or McDonald, you could be listening to CNN
Yeah, if one has a choice.
You know, you could do a lot worse than Peterson or McDonald, you could be listening to CNN.
I back Donald Trump on the Iran deal because of the unimaginable improvements in Korea, Syria, our economy, and the continued outings of the depraved goings on in high level politicians, CEO’s, celebrities, etc. These events give him historical, results oriented, and reality based validation.
When this all blows over Iran will be a better place for everyone, including the tens of millions of Iranian people. Only the elitist Iranian theocrats and allied new world order globalists will be hurt.
Good Luck President Trump!
I like Jordan Peterson and will continue to avidly follow him.
This article seems like a hit piece on Jordan Peterson. I don’t get the motivation.
Jordan Peterson is distantly like Donald Trump, Valdimir Putin, and in a very distant sense, Jesus Christ, because through intensely immersing the reader / listener in out of the media box thinking. they bring the consciousness and manifestation of a greater & better reality into physical being for humanity.
Oh yes, the reader might think about downloading Jordan Peterson’s books from Amazon onto their cell phones etc
Election fraud, media manipulation, vote buying….and still the final fairly elected winner is the one who has the highest ethical, moral, and visionary grasp of a nation’s needs and realities.
Lebanon’s recent events sounds like the United State’s recent events.
Looks like we peasants are finally waking up!
Wow! What’s with all the character assassinating commenters? Are they afraid of something the author wrote? Many of their emotional arguments are couched in nebulous statistical terms and virtue signaling. This is not the way to win an argument
Here’s a way…if we wait patiently, gene editing, brain-biochemical manipulation, sperm / egg hyper-selection, hardware and software brain implants, enhanced human-computer network connectivity, etc will increase I.Q.’s dramatically.
When all you've got is a hammer...
What’s with all the character assassinating commenters?
True in theory. The POLITICAL reality is that gene editing will be used to turn 99% of the population into an array of subordinate castes (jatis, in Hindu terminology), whose sole purpose is to serve and pleasure a small, high-IQ alpha race with its hands on all levers of power.
gene editing, brain-biochemical manipulation, ... , etc will increase I.Q.’s dramatically.
To the author, Nomi Prins,
I stopped reading 1/3 of the way through…
How can you and those like you have the nerve to demand possibly catastrophic, sudden, highly experimental changes to an approximately 20 trillion dollar American GDP, which could create millions of deaths, wars, and horrific suffering for over 7 billion human beings who are part of the approximately 120 trillion dollar world GDP? The positive changes under Trump are so massive and obvious, that we peasant’s side of the opinion is growing and your academic / journalist / elitist side is shrinking. The Truth is winning out. Do due diligence in your research. Dig deeper. Earn our respect by presenting the Truth.
Here’s some topics to look into; Syrian terrorists being crushed. Iraqi terrorists being marginalized. Saudi regime change toward greater gender and religious tolerance, North Korea making peace overtures. High level sexual predators and human traffickers being outed like never before (Weinstein, Allison Mack, etc), the sudden resignations or not running for office of so many establishment politicians. Stop picking the low hanging fruit. You have talent. Use it to help humanity achieve our next enlightenment. GOOD LUCK!
A little over a year in power, with the Trump “Good Guys Cabal” gaining power…and
1. Peace discussions like never before in Korea.
2. The Deep State, Globalist Elites, etc on the defensive.
3. Perversions and deviant behavior exposed among celebrities, judges, politicals, etc like never before (Weinstein, Mack, Epstein, Clinton, etc…and much more to come).
4. A Saudi Prince who owned the shooters hotel at the Los Vegas Massacre dies with his associates in an helicopter “Accident”…followed by a more humanity friendly changing of the guard in Saudi Arabia.
5. U.S. alphabet agency’s funding, weapons procurement, and tactical / strategic military information to Syrian & Iraqi terrorists largely cut off.
6. …and a lot lot more.
Many of the public announcements of Trump, Putin, and other “Good Guys” are part of a geopolitical strategy to lure still very powerful Deep State and other bad actors into vulnerablity, poor decision making, and dysfunctional internal relations.
Follow the evidence. Observe the obvious happenings. See the reality of present events.Then access like a scientist would the experimental evidence. Make a hypothesis. See if it is the best explanation. Watch for new evidence. Re-access. Continue.
GOOD LUCK!
An easy, although gradual, solution to almost all political, economic, and cultural problems is so glaringly obvious, that it can’t be seen. I’m not going to tell you what it is.
Just kidding!..
Here it is…
Use technology to access personalities traits of powerful and influencial people for traits of psychopathy, sociopathy narcissism, cowardice, etc. Cell phone apps using retinal scans, facial expression changes, eye movements, heart rate changes, etc…and comparing these to non-mentally/emotionally dysfunctional norms, would be cheap, effective, and readily available to all us serfs. Then would all we peasants would be able to choose righteous and good controllers, instead of having murderous / corrupt / evil people deceptively imposing their sick genocidal motivations upon us. This one easy technological step should solve almost all our human problems.
Of course the sick monsters among us would push hard to prevent this.
It’s coming rapidly though. They and we down deep know this.
So it’s a good time to be alive and be seeing this gradual unfolding of our greatest age of enlightenment!
To the author Mike Whitney,
Again, another outstanding article. Finally someone publically calls the Deep State people what they are…”pyschos”.
My take, Trump is part of a movement / consciousness so many standard deviations to the right of the Deep State on the I.Q. bell curve that it is mind bending to behold. He / they say things that are never meant to be taken for face value, but instead consciously / subconsciously set up the “psychos” to expose their psychosis/ psychopath natures to the public, and to make themselves vulnerable to unexpected flank attacks, and to create dysfunctional decision making and internal divisions.
The obvious conclusion is that Trump (..and / his allies) are secretly depending upon high genius people and extra-human intelligence.
Supercomputers, quantum computers, biological and electronic mind enhancing and integrating technologies, and other hidden advancements to super-intelligent decision making. This only sounds crazy to those that don’t think it though. How else could he / they be changing N. Korea so rapidly, & Syria, and the economy, and exposing Weinstein, Mack, etc, etc., etc etc???
Saying it’s just a coincidence is like saying the Universe happened by chance.
Again, Mike Whitney, you’re my favorite author on Unz.com. Keep it up. Also, Ron Unz, please keep up the good work of maintaining the intelligence used on this site. Humanity owes you big time!
Interesting take on Japan.
When you use derogatory universal put down references to others, like Americans, Europeans, or whites, or Vietnamese… you would do well to say, “American Elitists”, or “Eurpean pyschopaths”, or some term more focused and specific. Else you come off like an American / European / white / Vietnamese elitist pyschopath racist fascist narcissist, which I know you’re not. By the way, most of us Americans /Europeans / whites / Vietnamese are not bad guys either.
That said, his was a small point.
Linh you do good work, and deserve praise. Keep writing.
Mr. Lang,
The reason I enjoyed your article was that it provided a unique, thoughtful, and experience based take on a situation that is usually presented as black or white.
I look forward to more of your articles.
To Michael Hudson,
This is a long long article and not particularly easy reading. BUT I read it all anyway because early on I was drawn in by the out of the box logic given. It’s not perfect, nothing is, but it presents ideas and a name (Marx) which we have been mind conditioned to feel immediate revulsion to, so why would an author threaten his reputation to present this unless he feels there is some Truths that need to be revealed?
Looks to me as though unlimited free enterprise (…or unregulated capitalism) always eventually concentrates wealth…power into fewer and fewer hands, until the few take over the ecomomy, and make it into totally anti-free enterprise, extremely regulated economy
(……to further unfairly enrich themselves) which leads to tyrannical rule of us serfs.
The solution would be to identify all pyschopaths, sociopaths, and those of below average intelligence, and prohibit their holding public office or positions of power. Identifying pyschos- and socios- should be as easy as a cell phone ap for retinal scanning, heart rate changes, etc. upon certain questions or images presented to them. Of course, most of he resistance to this idea will come from pyschopaths and sociopaths.
Mr. Giraldi,
I generally like Your work.
Let’s look at this logically though.
North Korea is not launching missiles overs Japanese waters or doing nuclear testing. Is it a coincidence that this happened under Trump’s short time in office. Ditto for the Syrian and Iraq terrorists being de-funded, weapons shipments being stopped, and satellite /drone / etc military info sources canceled… with their forces then being crushed? Ditto for the massive governmental changes in Saudi Arabia? Ditto for FAIRER trade agreements with China. Ditto for unemployment rates for AfroAmericans being the lowest in decades? ….ON and ON..
So why assume that because French president ..Macaroni.., who is a former Rothchild banker, has any integrity in his opinions about Iran?
The poor Iranians, like the North Koreans, Syrians, and Iraqis, have suffered enough. My assumption here is that the Iranian people will one day idolize Donald Trump, for saving them from their oppressors. These oppressors include their own religious hierarchy, the international bankers, the globalists, the Obama’s, the Bushes, the Clinton’s, and other pychopathic and narrissitic power hungry predators. Of course Trump, is just the tip of the spear. We know that components of the military, intelligence services, and other powerful forces are openly and secretly supporting this movement toward transformation.
I ONLY read articles by J. C. Hopkins and similar authors anymore. After 5 decades of daily researching print…
then with internet, online articles and videos, the obvious deceptive nature of mainstream media crazies has become too painfully great to ignore. Their phony version of events and people is like listening to the craziest, loudest, and most boring person going on and on, too psychotic to realize that all their listeners are going away. One virtue of all that previous time spent listening to lies is that it teaches we millions to recognize a liar now.
Definitely the right direction you have considered. To tune out reality and a context of which your person is part, we all are inside the experiment, needs reconsidering.
the obvious deceptive nature of mainstream media crazies has become too painfully great to ignore
Maybe you should revise above, immigration, schooling, firehosing junk "information" provides an unending supply of obese between the ears humanity. Apt for breeding, apt for consuming is a pass to adulthood, to immigrant political status, to identity. The rest is circus, arena, movies, and to keep the engine running palm oil and corn sirup.
too psychotic to realize that all their listeners are going away
Good article Israel Shamir,
Still, please note that 28 years of Bush Senior, Clinton, Bush Junior, and Obama yielded ever worsening potential military confrontations on the Korean Pennisula. Indeed, North Korea has been militarily belligerent over 70 years. Trump is in office about 1 year and much of the media talks about how his administration had nothing to do with North and South Korea now exchanging olive branches?
I find that all statistically improbable.
The obvious conclusion is that the real deals were taking place behind the scenes and the public speeches were a distraction tactic to throw off the opposition. The goal was for Korea’s (…and Humanity’s….) journey to peace and the Truth to be unshackled.
The only thing Trump had to do with this was N. and S. Korea realized Trump is a crazy puppet of the neos and zios and decided to take the peace initiative on their own before Trump blew something up.
Trump is in office about 1 year and much of the media talks about how his administration had nothing to do with North and South Korea now exchanging olive branches?
I find that all statistically improbable.
Thank goodness someone (Saker) is at least trying to honestly reflect on the development of Christianity from an historical basis. I’m happily shocked that an author has quoted New Testament verses in a largely intellectual site like Unz.com. I have to congratulate Saker and Ron Unz in their courage in addressing such politically incorrect topics.
Just because I and many other readers are Christians doesn’t mean we don’t want various conflicting viewpoints presented as long as they are honest, balanced, and truth sourced.
GOOD WORK BOYS!
Good article Mr. Kirkpatrick,
The author gives Trump (and by doing so, the unseen coalition behind him) some realistic praise.
I’m going to repeatedly present these same comments in these posts…Since Trump took office, North Korea has stopped launching missiles over Japan’s waters and has stopped nuclear testing and is reaching out peacefully to South Korea. The terriorists in Syria, Iraq, and elsewhere have had their rogue U.S. government funding, weapons deliveries, and information sources dry up…and as a result are a shadow of their former strength. Many Saudi Royals have been arrested, some “Accident-ed”, and new more forward thinkers replacing them. The economy has not spiraled downward, mass confrontations on American streets has not occurred, and the internet has not been effectively censored. Reoccurring revelations on depraved histories of the powerful continue. More people are turning off main stream media and turning to internet alternative information sources.
Things, slowly, are getting incredibly better.
To Author, Michae Hudson,
Great take on historical, biblical, and financial / economic facts. Again you have presented out of the box thinking that appeals to practical, realistic, and altruistic people.
There will be negative comments of course. A lot of people have skin in the game of a non- beneficial, self-destructive, and parasitic economy. This game is based upon fiat currency and it’s sidekicks, excessive interest rates and predatory creditors.
Let’s remember not to go sudden full bore simplistic in the idea of a Debt Jubilee though. There are a lot of details to be worked out first, if it is to be successfully implemented.
To Michael Judson, …Keep writing!
To author.
We not-insane people have long realized that the open borders apologists are largely insane, but we didn’t know exactly how. This helps a lot. Thanks!
Author is 1/2 right. 1/2 wrong.
Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama set up 32 years of expanding an evil empire of the elitists.
Trump has been in about 1/30th of that time and the author expects 100% improvements? Get a real job for 20 years, live in my world a few decades, and start looking out of the box your limited associations have contained you in.
North Korea isn’t launching missiles over Japanese waters. North Korea has stopped nuclear testing. The Syrian terrorists have had their weapons, funding, and high tech intelligence received from rogue Western intelligence agencies denied to them. They have been largely crushed in Syria and Iraq. The Deep State, globalists, and other elitist groups have been flank and rear attacked again and again because they naively believed the Trump Allies would not deceive them with false public announcements, as the Deep State has done to naive patriots for decades.
Evidence trumps words every time.
Bravo Mike Whitney!
I heard it said that most millionaires are Republicans and most billionaires are Democrats.
Billionaires don’t become billionaires by just being hard working, intelligent, and providing a sought after service. Most billionaires have also relentlessly gamed the system, lobbied for taxpayer handouts, and abused employees, partners, and consumers.
That said, a minority of billionares have also been part of the momentum behind the transformation of human poverty and misery into prosperity and advancement. Trump became, over time, one of these “Good” billionares.
The Democratic Party wasn’t always so bad, but it was infiltrated and highjacked by the self-centered, then the dogmatic, and now the crazies. The Republican Party was going through the same process but a grass roots “Counter-Coup” in the last election saved it.
“The Light (Truth) has come into the World and the Darkness hates the Light because it exposes it’s evil deeds.”
Mike Whitney, thank you for being part of the Light.
Oh, quit now. If our old and long lost friend, the Maven (IQ 666 or so), were here he'd no doubt write all that off to mere jealousy.
Most billionaires have also relentlessly gamed the system, lobbied for taxpayer handouts, and abused employees, partners, and consumers.
WOW! Anatoly does it again. What a remarkably good writer.
I typically do numerous short exercises of varying difficulty and intensity throughout the day. These include logic, pattern recognition, mathematical, etc. for the mind… exercises. Reading Anatoly’s above article certainly gave my mind a good workout this morning.
And yes…..GREAT description of Solzhenitsyn’s contribution as a force of positive change for Russia and the World.
Keep writing Karlin.
AK: Well, erm, thanks, but I’m not the author or even the translator of this article; just the editor.
Does the author make a significant portion of his income promoting a semi-open borders agenda? Does he give the front door key of his residence to vast numbers of young male semi-literate illegals from 3rd world areas of violence? Does he send most of his income to support business, technological, and manufacturing development projects in illegal immigrant source countries, to improve people’s opportunities there so they do not want to move here? Does he volunteer his time and money to teach viable employment skills there? Has he volunteered to help in removing the millions of landmines in Cambodia, Afghanistan, etc?
Syrian, Iraqi, and other terrorist groups have been de-funded, crushed, and no longer receive massive amounts of weapons from deceptive agencies. Sophisticated high tech information gathering is no longer routed to them. North Korea is no longer sending ICBMs over Japan, and hasn’t tested a nuke in some time. 1000’s of human traffickers have been arrested. The mainstream media is losing its viewer base. Alternative media is overcoming The Deep State’s efforts to censor it and is instead, continuing to grow rapidly. Solid, logical, scientific evidence is ever more being released to support the existence of a personal, benevolent, and vastly powerful Supreme Being. The ability to influence events by our perception and observation of Reality is being expanded by the Double Slit Experiments, Relativity’s basic dependency on the priority of the observer/ perceiver, and other evidence/ mathematically based science.
I would say that the above and MUCH MUCH MORE gives belief to the idea that things are getting better and the Truth is ever more coming into our existence.
It’s a great time to be alive!
To the author,
This is great work. Many authors simply list facts (which could be mis-information or dis-information). You carried us through your reasoning process like in an interesting dective story. You even added parts where you weren’t absolutely sure of your conclusions on Betty Ong, but that you sought out the most probable ones.
Ron Unz should also be given creeps for asking you the right questions to lead you in the right directions of further research and thinking.
Only downsides are length of this article… and in your previous article replies to obnoxious commenters, you used vulgarity
Stick with the excellent vocabulary you have in your journalistic toolbox…and write more for us.
Thank you.
To the author,
This is great work.
I did? Really? I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
in your previous article replies to obnoxious commenters, you used vulgarity
To Author,
You expanded the explanation of the Syrian missle attacks into the most probable. This in itself is reason to rejoice.
Keep it up!
By spending hours each day, for years, researching hundreds of websites, including this one, the article’s conclusions are not at all surprising.
Even when all the dis-information and mis-information came out originally about this missile strike, I figured it was just a distraction for actual hidden political, military, and economic goals.
Like I’ve commented many times in Unz.com, the Bigger Game is at play. What we see in the media is camouflage, smoke and mirrors, distractions….. that eventually gives advantage to flank and rear surprise attacks by the Good Guys.
We, the Realistic, Practical, and Reasonable, are winning, having learned the Rules of the Game after being beaten at it so long, by it’s multi-generational creators and controllers.
Gradually and incrementally, this metaphorical chess board is coming to checkmate.
This looks like a distraction tactic under the the umbrella strategy of “Taking down the International Deep State / Globalists and their pedophile, elitist, murderous, narcissistic, control freak, black mailing, pyschopath leaders.
The Syrian air strike media blitz is too simplistic and unexplained to be the deeper story. Just like with all the North Korea fear mongering a few months ago, I’m waiting for the Truth to come out.
To Yan Shen,
While it may not be your intent for readers, my intent in reading your article quickly became to add to my daily cognitive exercises.
Your use of vocabulary, range of differing depth of concepts, and logical / factual / presentation was akin to mental weight lifting. I’m an old rural white guy coming from a semi-illiterate, impoverished, ignorance enhancing background, that found that the mind and body are quite upwardly fluid when nourished with strengthening influences. Thanks for the exercise…AND… Good article…but not so long next time. GOOD LUCK YAN!
“Trump” is a name that better discribes groups rather than the man, that are working, through him temporarily, to reverse the decline of humanity into psychopath elitist global control.
Most articles focus on the more temporary events, while failing to research the long term, even generational, might I say, millennial struggles…. between those of reason & altruistic vision, and those of chaotic extreme self-interest.
While it might look like we’re losing, it’s just another small battle in a long term war. I think, overall, we are winning!
Article was too long, rambling, and angrily blame casting at everyone.
While it did accurately portray many real world evils, and accurately named real world predatory psychopath murderers, it then largely & falsely blamed Trump and his Allies. Get a clue! His Group is the first one in decades to swim upstream, fight the decadent political current, and try to make deals that will gradually shift power over to the Good. This is an ongoing war on an informational, economic, physical, and human consciousness/ perception level. Things cannot change overnight. Change will take generations. The righteous have to use the same dis-information tactics that Evil uses to sway human minds to the bigger Truths. It’s a dirty, terrible, awful game…but the rules were created by the horrible people long long ago.
That said, the authors revealing of atrocities by murderous sociopaths in Israel, in such graphic detail, adds to humanities climb out of the media deception pit. So all in all, I guess it was a descent article…mostly. keep writing, just dig deeper.
Great story telling Linh, real life discription at a personal level is Your great gift. At times in the past You’ve attempted to give political views but it alienated many readers. This, today, is extraordinarily good reading. It changes hearts and minds because it so real. Good Luck Linh!
WOW! Good article.
But I still support Trump. The real Truth about what is happening is camouflaged by fake news, misinformation, and disinformation.
Both the Good Guys and the bad guys are working to shape the narrative. This narrative is to shape our beliefs / perceptions / consciousness. Just like in the double slit experiments in Quantum Physics and Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity, The Observer has a complete influence on important parts of the outcome.
Again, pretty good article.
Good article.
Still, you authors need to start digging deeper. Trump and his Allies are putting on an amazing show / act to distract their (…and Humanities …going back generations) hidden enemies.
The Bad Guys have for millennia weoponized information, convincing the public, reporters, and journalists that the rabbit hole ends here, that they don’t need to dig any deeper, to just accept this slightly deeper layer of the onion. That warm and fuzzy feeling from scratching just a little deeper into to information matrix, isn’t enough anymore. You guys have the intelligence, experience, and ability…just do it …please!
Good Things are happening and the Good Guys are winning, You’re just not digging deep enough.
The Good Guys are staging theatre to distract the psychopaths that still have power, so these elitist control freak controllers of the narrative become vulnerable to highly sophisticated strategies and tactics.
You might think, ” The above doesn’t make any sense, because most mainstream T.V. news, internet news, print news, and radio news; and the Social Media news keeps repeating versions of, “Be scared! Be annoyed! Give Up! Things are getting worse! Everything but our sources are fake news! Trump and his allies are stupid, crazy, sexually immoral and low I.Q.! Its not us who are guilty of unimaginably evil events and purposes! Believe us or you’re racist, fascist, unethical, ignorant, and will have your website, account, etc. banned, deleted, and censored (But only for your own
good)” ”
Thank God for Alternative sites like Unz where these topics can be debated.
Mr. Unz., You are one of those people who significantly change history for the better. Please keep it up.
Psychopaths in Israel hide behind religion, culture, nationalism, and by distorting history…. Just like everywhere else.
The spotlight is on Israel, but next step is to focus it on their psychopathic leadership. Then pick up other spotlights to focus on the hiding monsters in every nation.
Great and wonderful changes for humanity are occurring at an increasing rate. Even the mainstream media is being forced to shine a little light on the swamp creatures.
Pretty good article.
The cockroaches hate it when we turn on the lights.
Bottom feeders don’t do so well when the scum is removed from on top and the Light hits them.
Draining a swamp causes parasitic predators to starve out and be replaced by valuable, productive, and beneficial people who cooperate for the lasting good of humanity.
The opening picture, with the guy in the tinfoil hat? Ive always wondered if they work, that is, if they actually have some significant benefit? After all, tinfoil hats are uniformly demeaned in mainstream media, so that is a huge bit of evidence for their possible benefit. I’ve read the experiment writings on tin foil hats and the
all The experimental scientists / writers seem to have an obvious emotional biase. I not saying they do work, it’s just that it makes one wonder…ALOT!
I would say that this type of article justifiably points at the hypocrisy of the NYT, while angrily and un-justifiably attempting to shift the reader’s attention to mis-information, in an effort to keep these readers mis-informed. The perceptive reader will of course, by now, have realized that the Deep State Propagandists will use their people in journalism (Whether the journalists are intentionally or un-intentionally doing so) to keep the public focus shifting from one falsified narrative to another. Thus the focus is never on the actual truth, but always on a shifting false description of events.
There are no “money saints” in politics, at least for long.
Deals have to be made, pawns have to be sacrificed, the future must be created incrementally. Sometimes to win the war you have to lose a battle. Sometimes to win the battle you have to temporarily retreat. I remember people complaining that Putin had amassed $200 billion dollars and my first thought was, “Maybe now he has enough wealth to take down His own deep state.” Things are getting better. The pyschopath billionares are being played.
To C. J. Hopkins,
We on the side of Truth are fortunate, improved, dare I say BLESSED…by writers like you.
Free speech and discussion are powerful weapons for positive change, but their effect is exponentially amplified by Truth in Humor.
C. J. Hopkins, You just have to keep this up!
To Mike Whitney,
That was great Mike. Honest, reasonable, and readable. Concise too, unlike many authors that use too many words for too few ideas that are nebulous at best.
Keep writing Mike Whitney!
This is just one small move in the Big Game. Spread your gaze out to decades and this will become apparent.
North Korea has stopped launching missiles and has mostly stopped it’s political trash talk. The Syrian War is steadily being wound down. There was no nuclear confrontation between the world powers. The mainstream media is increasingly being exposed as incompetent, deceptive, predatory, and not worthy of viewing. False flags are ever more being exposed as….false flags. The waking up of the necessary percentage of humanity required to create positive local and global change has happened and is continuing. For the first time in a long time, the pieces on the chessboard (YOU &ME!) are having a say in how they are moved.
Have A GOOD DAY!
Trump’s Results are all that count. Even in depth factual analysis is impotent next to results. ISIS is broken, Al Quida is now just a misspelled word, the economy is reversing its downward spiral (Except for the percentage of the rich that make their money as parasites.), and much more good is happening. “Darkness hates the Light because the Light exposes it for it’s evil deads.”… that is, The Truth is exposing the Global Deception that has perpetuated tyranny, misery, and unhappiness for generations, indeed for far longer than that. The Biggest Game is being played out now, with the Good Guys having learned it’s newer rules, which were altered by the Bad Guys. One of the rules is that the public , in general, can’t handle the whole truth, so must be fed pieces of it until they wake up. Trump, Putin, and their very powerful Allies are playing this game exceedingly well.
Ooo, is one supposed to be impressed by such "profundity"?The Evil Empire is the Darkness, you degenerate.
Darkness hates the Light because the Light exposes it for it’s evil deads.
LOL! Are you talking about "The Truth"?Only hallucinating fools consider such nonsense as "100% God & 100% man," as The Truth...Even Holmes will be stumped by the Mystery of the 200% Whole. ;)

To Vladimir Brokin,
Well written and informative article. Don’t worry about distracting / trolling commenters that dont/ can’t understand your highly informative insights. A lot of we readers would like you to make more articles available for us.
To the Author,
Its hard to beleve you would question the motives of british elitists who’ve repeated been caught with their pants down (Literally), who’ve told the public one thing then repeatedly done the opposite, and who are so hideous that they need considerable efforts by make-up artists before appearing in public. What nerve!
Good article. Keep publishing.
I just finished a series of YouTube, internet, etc. Information Gatherings on the 1555 Seige on Christian defenders of Belgrade by a huge and vastly better equipped, trained, and resourced muslim army. The Christians beat the pants off the battle hardened muslem soldiers. The Christians loudly voiced thousands of times until victory, the name of Jesus Christ. All over Europe Christians prayed daily for victory. It was one of the most lopsided and unexpected wins in history.
No wonder the elitists want the faith in Christ replaced by pew warming congregations completely unfamiliar with the words and meanings of the teachings of Christ, and also unfamiliar with science, mathematics, technology, logic, reason, and strategic and tactical thinking.
Yah, its pretty crazy out there. The high and average I.Q. People have been out reproduced by the low I. Q. People for enough decades now that the percentage of politically active blatantly foolish are significantly negatively impacting human progress on every level. Add to this the effects of floride in water, mercury in dental fillings, too much to fully discuss stuff in vaccines, multiple vaccines given to infants and children during the times when their brains are growing, rewiring, and reprogramming… and its not so good.
To Author,
Good and reason based article.
I would add that Americans buying of goods and services with corrupted debt dollars creates taxes on every world country and their citizens, not just on Americans. Because this debt is never repaid, but just added to, it is highly inflationary and decreases buying power, just like taxes decrease the amount of money a person has to buy things with.
The military, economic, and political power of the United States backs this corrupted currency, whereas it was once backed by gold, silver, goods, services, etc. Any nation that threatens to not take dollars in exchange for say, oil, gets Libya-ed, or Iraq-ed, or Syria-ed, etc. Trumps predecessors created this monstrosity, and the uninformed and foolish blame him. He’s the first descent President we’ve had in decades, and is fighting an uphill battle against millions of entrenched, power crazed, pyschopaths. I’m totally with him so far.
It’s an inaccurate distraction for the un-awake.
The actual reality is that a monster wasn’t elected president in 2017 despite widespread election fraud, there’s no world war 3, the Syrian War is winding down and ISIS is crushed, the Saudi’s have suppressed their elitist war mongering psychopath royals, North Korea is talking peace, the Ukrainian war is gradually winding down, 1000’s of pedophiles, deviates, and traitors have been arrested/marginalized/ neutralized last year. Should I go on?
What’s going on has got to be a mis-and dis-informational effort to distract and mis-direct the perverted deep state and it’s allies.
After all, things are generally getting much better throughout the world. No WW3, no North Korean war, the Syrian War has been winding down, the Ukrainian war has not exploded, Crimea is solidly in the Russian camp, 1000’s of pedophiles, murderous pyschopaths, and extreme humanity abusers are being arrested/neutralized/disempowered globally, the world economy hasn’t collapsed, and a solidly insane she’s-not-a-lady isn’t the U.S. President
Looks like a net global positive to me.
STILL, Israel Shamir, This all just my take on events and I continue to love your writing style. Keep at it!
Trump is America’s Putin. The major influences in the military largely back him while the monopolistic and parasitic portion of the billionaires oppose him. This is very similiar to Putin’s situation in times past. Things are getting better, it’s just not so obvious because of the media. Keep Your eyes open!
To Michael Hudson,
You don’t understand the Big Game. You are writing about little games that are the tactics as though they are of prime importance and strategic, and missing the importance of the long term, multi-decade Main Strategies. Oh well, generally I like Your writing.
To Saker,
Good article. Informationally largely correct. Realistic and logical.
The only addition.that we Americans that are awake would make, is that this isn’t about Trump against Putin. Rather it is about the Good Guys and their Alliances against the globalists, the deep state, the international banksters, the protectors and enablers of drug cartels, human sex slavery traffickers, legal and illegal weapons traffickers, and against psychopath murderous monsters of all kinds. Trump and Putin are repositioning the predatory degenerates into weaker and more vulnerable positions. The evidence of this is, and will be, the lessening of human suffering as years and decades pass.
To Saker, Your articles back to brilliant again. Stay on track.
The American educational system is largely ineffective, inefficient, and ant-life-enhancing. Everyone deep down knows this. Most are in denial of the degree of destructiveness of this mis- and dis-educational monster. A few of us spiritually wake up and try to overcome the twisting that school and the media has done to our brains by reading Unz.com, Linh’s and other’s articles, and seeking the Truth where we can. The soul of the monster is composed of the sum of all influential psychopaths, that feel pleasure by manipulating our suffering. Their easily identified with technology. Guess whose preventing that?
Someone I know just found out his great-great grandparents might have been Jewish. He now feels he can tell jokes about Jews without being called anti-Semitic. If we go back far enough, most of us have an ancestor who is white, brown, black, and whatever. We’re all racially ethnically mixed somehow. I see radical feminist ant-racist women who dyed their hair blond, and that seems to be a desire to identify with Nazi idealizations of female beauty. People are largely insane, and its not just the below 110 I.Q. ones. What do I do with all this? Well, for me, I will continue to enjoy reading Unz.com every morning, with a cup of coffee, while sitting on the pot.
To C.J. Hopkins,
Great article. Mind-bendingly humorous description of true events.
You might consider that the “bosses” of these journalists are not at all the top of the control pyramid, and that they themselves are probably controlled through blackmail in the threat of exposure of their pedophilia, sexually deviate, degenerate histories.
Keep writing!
While it is very useful to classify based upon I.Q., the elephant in the room is not giving equal attention to determining who is a psychopath, sociopath, extreme narcissist, sadist, insane, or a control freak. A high I.Q. person or group in a position of power that has these traits is worse than a person of average intelligence who is a committed, hard working, truth seeking, humanitarian. The methods and technology exists to screen for the above anti-human traits, so why isnt it being done? The answer is obviously that some of those in positions of power, in the media, etc. dont want their true natures exposed.
To Ya Shen,,
Great material but too long. You might try presenting such outstanding thoughts in 3 articles instead of 1.
Still, it is at least 3.5 standard deviations to the right of average on the standard bell curve for I.Q writings…HA!
Please continue to write for we verbally cognitively advanced & skewed reader’s more!
is retarded not "advanced".
Please continue to write for we verbally cognitively advanced...
To Saker.
Great article.
Very clear arguments and conclusions.
The best conclusion you gave was that we all are still puzzled by this odd event. Instead of looking at this as a one on event, maybe we should consider it as a pawn move in a on-going, extremely complex, geopolitical chess game.
To Godfree Roberts,
I usually rapidly speed read such long articles at best, given many readers like me routinely cover dozens of articles quickly each day before work. Yours was very interesting though, so I slowed down. Many of us, by our immersion in such topics presented by alternative writers, have been led to believe that leaders such as Xi, Putin, and Trump, are much more intelligent, ethical, and capable than the controlled media promotes. So yours is a good presentation on this Chinese leader. Just one thing, nobody is perfect. What are Xi’s main faults? List them and your article becomes more believable. Keep writing!

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Xi_Jinping_March_2017.jpg
Just one thing, nobody is perfect. What are Xi’s main faults? List them and your article becomes more believable.
Xi's first speech as general secretary was plainly worded and did not include any political slogans or mention of his predecessors.[75]
On 11 February, while visiting Mexico, Xi spoke in front of a group of overseas Chinese and explained China's contributions to the financial crisis, saying that it was "the greatest contribution towards the whole of human race, made by China, to prevent its 1.3 billion people from hunger".[61] Xi went on to remark: "There are some bored foreigners, with full stomachs, who have nothing better to do than point fingers at us. First, China doesn't export revolution; second, China doesn't export hunger and poverty; third, China doesn't come and cause you headaches. What more is there to be said?"[62][63]
That's how he warned US, no new weapons or nuclear threat like Putin.
Xi mentioned the aspirations of the average person, remarking, "Our people ... expect better education, more stable jobs, better income, more reliable social security, medical care of a higher standard, more comfortable living conditions, and a more beautiful environment."
No shock & awe speech to destroy any country, yawn...
On China-U.S. relations, Xi said, "If [China and the United States] are in confrontation, it would surely spell disaster for both countries".[147]
That's how he eat, so plain.
13 May 2017 Xi said at the Belt and Road Forum in Beijing: “We should foster a new type of international relations featuring 'win-win cooperation', and we should forge a partnership of dialogue with no confrontation, and a partnership of friendship rather than alliance. All countries should respect each other's sovereignty, dignity and territorial integrity; respect each other's development path and its social systems, and respect each other's core interests and major concerns... ...What we hope to create is a big family of harmonious coexistence.”[159]
Wapo comment on Xi:
In December 2013, Xi arrived unannounced at a small Beijing restaurant to have steam buns (包子, baozi) for lunch, with only one person accompanying him. He paid for the meal himself and dined with regular patrons.[88]
The worst criticism US can think of Xi
The Washington Post article by those who know him as "pragmatic, serious, cautious, hard-working, down to earth and low-key". Xi was described as a good hand at problem solving and "seemingly uninterested in the trappings of high office."[181]
And Xi biggest fault:
Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton tweeted, "Xi hosting a meeting on women's rights at the UN while persecuting feminists? Shameless."[49]
In July 2017, the character Winnie-the-Pooh was blocked on Chinese social media sites because bloggers had been comparing the plump bear to China's leader Xi Jinping.[172] This follows a previous incident where Chinese authorities censored a 9 year old child for comments about Xi's weight.[173]
How could the author and others miss the 1000’s Of arrests of pedophile traffickers and murderous pyschopath elitists under Trump? Is this a forbidden topic? Gitmo is filling up with traitors. The Globalists, NWO’ers, and deep state are not only carrying out mis-information attacks constantly via the controlled media, they have also carried out assassination attempts on GOP leaders (….as in playing baseball and a large truck parked in front of an Amtrac train). How can political authors miss this and get distracted by President Trump’s seemingly unintelligible speech? Think about it, He and his Allies want the extremely wealthy and powerful (
..But arrogant) Deep State to be mislead as to his and their true Agenda. I like Unz.com, but is it intentionally only covering relatively “Soft Topics”?
It’s a game. A huge, unimaginable, all encompassing game. Trump is playing it really well. Many Americans are not smart enough to recognize this or that the “deep state” is unimaginably evil. It will lie, manipulate, and kill millions without remorse. You don’t play this game by being a nice guy and signaling your true intentions. It’s a war, so a smart General misleads his enemy with misinformation so they become vulnerable to stealth attacks.
Mr. Whitney,
You are a rarity. A journalist who writes in an honest, fact based, important style. Ignore the paid trolls with their lunatic negative comments.
Please keep writing!
Mr. Geraldo,
Basically correct on your part.
Iran is an easy fix. Just let the Iranian people change their country. You think many of the churches in the U.S. have more empty pews, you should visit Iran
Most of the mosques there are struggling. The average Iranian is sick of their rulers, but feel a need for a cohesive military front against imperialistic western control freaks. The solution for Iran, in relationship to the West’s needs, is to support our opposition to the West’s degenerate, control freak, murderous deep state that seeks conflict. That’s why so many of us support Trump. As to those that argue that Trump is a war monger or is the tool of war mongers, get a life. Get off the laptop for a while. Do a wider search for Truth. Get your head out if the media box. Good Luck!
Mr. Hiney, who is this person you are addressing to? Do you mean this clown from FOX News? He doesn't publish anything at UNZ--wrong place you chose to address him.
Mr. Geraldo,
Mr. Derbyshire,
Good article.
Also, I’m glad You, and hopefully others soon, are using terms like “Control Freaks”. This term could become the smear term of the day against control freaks that won’t debate with logic, reason, or facts. We need to just degrade their image with repeated different derogatory terms …plus logic, reason, and facts. My experience with them is that they then tend to mentally seize up and become even more obvious baffoons. Good luck in your writing!
Vast amounts of factual information with a few glaring omissions not presented.
What’s with so many internet political analysts refusing to address the arrests, prosecutions, and marginalizations of thousands of elitist pedophile pyschopaths world wide, since Putin and especially Trump gained power? It’s all over the internet, especially on sites being censured. Is this topic too hot to write about? Come on guys!
“Spreading faster than headlice at a daycare center” … Too funny! The article had great info but from that joke onward I really enjoyed it emotionally as well as intellectually. I’ve noticed that more talented conservative writers often have the gift of putting humor into articles. To my mind, if an author, except in tragic events, can’t put humor into their views, then they probably don’t have a good grasp on the absurdity of leftists.
To Weissberg, keep it up!
Weird, rambling, strange, off-point. I generally give Mercer high marks.
China and the Chinese have had dense populations on limited land and and resources for so long that a dog eat dog economic momentum developed. As per capital income increases the average Chinese should tend to eat beef, pork, and chicken instead of dog (That was a 1/2 joke …. ha!). My European ancestors were even more dog eat dog driven until their descendents achieved economic security. I expect we of the West should recognize this fact and up our business and political negotiation skills (We need to grow a pair), …. until the Chinese have become as economically complacent as we have become. Then we won’t have to be as whiny, easily emotionally triggered, and privilege expectant as many expats seem to be. Advice: Raise tough kids. Don’t give them money, make them work for it. Start them young, like at 5 years old making their own beds and feeding the cat. Make them do homework first thing when home from school. If affordable, send them to a good private school that doesn’t prioritize political correctness. Make them go to church, the synagogue, whatever weekly so they become habituated to boring but necessary mindless activities in life ..
while keeping it clear that the institutions religious leaders may have some crazy ideas. Promote playing musical instruments, esp. of classical music. Have wall paper with scientific symbols and formulas so that Math & Science is childhood on familiar and easier for them. Ask questions like “What do you think?” … and don’t correct their answer, unless it is totally crazy.
Have a good day!
Mr. Geraldo,

Mr. Geraldo
To Mike Whitney,
Good article and thank you for keeping your presentation a reasonable length. Unreasonable length is a problem for many authors and preachers!
The Florida school massacre, can be orchestrated by simply ignoring significant warnings. For instance, a rogue FBI leadership intentionally ignores warnings from many different locations on the likely danger, and just waits for it to happen. When it does happen the rogue FBI cell can claim plausible deniability, claiming incompetence or stupidity, instead of intention. Then tens of millions of Americans are distracted from recently released information exposing the rogue FBI cell. How creepy these pyschopaths are is hard for most pepple to understand, but gradually they are. Also, Trump has powerful opponents, one of which is the inability of most people to politically wake up quickly. He is the front man for a Military, Political, and Scientific Alliance making war against entrenched elitist, sociopathic, self-centered, control freak cabals that almost seized complete power in our country. Give him some slack okay. He’s / they are doing pretty good considering the incredibly dangerous situation they took over. Keep writing Mike Whitney!
A better solution is easy. Just strongly encourage the continuing and escalating removal of opportunistic, pyschopath, pedophile, control freaks from power. This began in force in the U.S. ever since the Trump Era began (Although generally not exposed to the public), and is going world wide. This is the Enormous “Elephant in the room”, not the Israeli, Russian, and other influences on our politics. Generations and decades will pass for complete changes to occur. Patience and the slow game are the great virtues among those who know this.
No need to despair. I woke up, you woke up, and most will wake up. A small percentage will never wake up, but let’s not cry over them, they’re not evidence based. Never waste time on them. Christ said this cryptically with, “Do not cast pearls before swine”. Cell phone cameras and videoes, social media, and internet searches increasingly expose leftist lunacy to we, formerly naive, normal humans. Changes in mass consciousness must have real world effects eventually, else the pyschotic psychopaths wouldnt have spent so much time, money, and effort to control it. Dont stress, the Good Guys ate winning. It just may take a generation or two. Be patient.
To Mr. Shamir,
I don’t know what to say. For decades the western media has given me only the most negative views on communism. History classes, books, and videos have supported this negativity. Your articles have always been very enlightening, so you have me thinking.
Maybe a defect in many world views might be that they do not address the need to technologically screen political candidates for evil traits. For example; psychopathy, narcissism, sadism, and control-freakism. Then the electorate / voters/ citizens might make very informed decisions based upon revealed excesses in these tendencies that otherwise would otherwise be hidden by photo-ops, bought media, and by who is the best liar.
Just a thought.
Keep writing!
To Linh,
I’ve read numerous accounts of the Vietnamese defeating invasions by China, the Mongols, and various others. The brilliant people, tactics, and strategies involved would make a great hero / action movie.
Alas, it sounds like Vietnam is being transformed into a weaker and more materialistic society by the same hollywood, consumerism, controlled media systems that have hastened the demise of the West.
Keep writing Linh!
To Nomi Prins,
Many of us grew up in a world that was not black and white. So when you paint current events in a mostly black brush, we have to sit back and wonder about your motives, and agendas, and the media, educational, and cultural programming you were influenced by.
The obvious conclusion…
Trump is the face of a powerful growing unwritten mandate by we non-pyschopath billions of humans for productive and beneficial change.
Countering us is the deep state which has tentacles developed over decades reaching into and subverting governments, institutions, and knowledge sources.
So for you to imply sudden and absolute changes are possible by one man, runs against most of our experiences in the real world.
Do you remember how mathematicians justified Calculus, by assuming that small incremental changes are natural in the real world, and that they eventually lead up to macro-changes?
We are witnesses a mathematical like new politics and state-craft that has never before been evident in our written history. I am led to believe that advanced software, super and quantum computers, and A.I. are being used by hidden behind the scene benificial forces to predict and alter possible near and far future outcomes for the better…

To Mr. Derbyshire,
Very good article. Its all about introducing a system that limits immigration to the amount and type of immigration that is optimally beneficial for the United States. It currently reeks of a system designed to be beneficial to illegal cheap labor businesses, who are inherently not competitive, and maximally rewards the not so business astute, pyschopaths that own and control these businesses.
Congratulations to the author,
Dis-information Involves blending known truths with acceptable arguments with false fabrications.
You have indeed blended historical facts with political/economic/cultural arguments with false fabrications on the Trump Administration’s goals, strategies, and motives.

Another great article.
However, you shouldn’t be too hard on the liberal democrats. A lot if us were once illogical, unreasonable, media brainwashed buffoons. We voted for narcisstic democrats, predatory rinos, and misguided independents.
When the internet and cell phone cameras showed us the real behavior of these nasty parasites, mostly we switched our voting patterns.
Still, there is a percentage of us that wasn’t able to grow a conscious or be attracted to obvious truths.
