‘Watch This!’

There are times in my career as a collapse observer and systematizer when my running commentary can quite reasonably be pared down to just two words : “ Watch this !
” The current severe stage of the financial and economic collapse sequence that was initiated in 2008 , which is being artificially masked ( no pun intended ) by the fake Covid “ pandemic , ” and now a hung and fraudulent US election on top of it is just such an occasion : why not just sit back and watch the world burn ?
But I happen to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mood today , and when I get that way few things can hold me back from holding forth and bloviating prophetically .
Let ’ s start with a quick jaunt down memory lane .
I first realized that the USA was going to follow the general trajectory of the USSR back in 1995 .
I also immediately realized that the USSR was rather well prepared for collapse whereas the USA was about to be blindsided by it , and so , as a public service , I thought I should warn people .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that did !
” some of you might immediately exclaim .
But you would be wrong : lots of people have written to me to say how much better adjusted they are psychologically now that they have heard and accepted my message , for now they are ready to accept collapse with equanimity and poise .
This is sure to make their company less tedious moving forward .

And now , a quarter of a century after my initial insight , as the US enters national bankruptcy and institutional collapse , the whole world is being treated to an end-of-empire spectacular election extravaganza starring none other than the consummate showman and impresario extraordinaire Donald Trump .
He used to run beauty pageants , while this one is more of an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rare and always fades while ugliness is commonplace and usually just gets uglier , making it a much safer bet .
And so let ’ s accept it as a parting present to the world from a vanishing nation that gave us horror flicks , reality television and three-ring circuses with sideshow freaks .
Within the sweeping panoramic tableau of the 2020 election , Trump ( our hero ) appears bathed in a golden sunset glow of nostalgia for lost American greatness which he forever promises to rekindle .
Rest assured , Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be great again .

lewrockwell--2020-11-17--Michael Moore Admits: The Left Will Attempt a Coup

“ We are all eager to join with you to repair the damage done to our country — and to eliminate that about our society and our politics which gave us Donald Trump in the first place ” wrote the filmmaker Michael Moore in his open letter to Joe Biden the other day .
This statement by the Oscar-winning director should put everyone on alert , because it contains a chilling revelation of the hard left ’ s ultimate objective .
Change the name “ Donald Trump ” for the term “ conservative ” or the phrase “ everyone who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get an idea .
Confident they have gotten a hold on the presidency , the hard left will now attempt to fundamentally alter our system in a way that would make it impossible for anyone to challenge their hold on power .
More specifically , they will seek to eliminate “ that ” which gives non-leftists – those who hold traditional , liberal , democratic and American values – a fair chance at electoral or legislative success .
We urge you to pay careful attention to Moore ’ s language : the Left @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to implement their agenda through our system as it stands now .
Their goal is to “ eliminate ” anything that may stand in their way .
They do not mean to play by the rules of the game .
They wish to change the parameters in a manner that would give them a permanent advantage .
Don ’ t Hurt Peopl ... Kibbe , Matt Best Price : $ 1.63 Buy New $ 16.00 Read what else Moore had to say in his missive to Joe Biden : “ I was so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when you told the immigrants and the children of immigrants that the Dreamers no longer had to live in fear .
That Muslims were once again welcomed into our country .
That the world could breathe a sigh of relief because we were going to let the planet Earth itself breathe and have some relief .
And you told the teachers of America that starting January 20th , ‘ one of your own will be living in the White House.
’ That just felt instantly good.
” You can sense from the tone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and elated the hard left feels about its prospects .
Some of the measures they will try to force in their effort to permanently ensconce themselves in power include : • Mass importation of Muslims into the United States • Using teachers ’ unions to further speed up and deepen indoctrination of students in public schools • Imposition of extreme environmentalist agenda such as the New Green Deal • Blacklisting and punishing those who oppose their policies or support non-leftist candidates for office • Destruction of the middle-class under the guise of COVID @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of widespread political correctness through the codification of hate speech laws • Acceleration of the LGBT agenda in public schools and institutions • Indoctrination of government employees , contractors and recipients of federal funding through critical race theory and other Marxist-derived systems of thought Even if they accomplish only seventy percent of their agenda , the Left ’ s hold on power will become for all practical purposes unshakeable .
Thus , what they are trying to effect is nothing short of a coup , which would guarantee one Party a permanent grasp @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had was not yet the full coup .
It was only its first stage .
It is possible to have the occasional stolen election and still preserve democracy .
Election theft has happened in the United States before .
In the 1960 contest between Kennedy and Nixon , for example , the former was given the edge by stuffed ballot boxes from Chicago which , back then , was run by the notoriously unscrupulous mayor Richard Daley .
Kennedy himself admitted so much in private .
According to a piece in the American @ @ @ @ @ @ @ day after the election , Kennedy told his friend and future Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee that Daley had told him that he had won Illinois by fraud… ” Despite the fraud the system was essentially preserved , because Kennedy was no far left extremist bent on radically altering the parameters of America ’ s electoral or societal landscape .
The Revolution : A Mani ... Ron Paul Best Price : $ 0.10 Buy New $ 9.90 The coup that is in the works now will have succeeded when the Left alters the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impossible to dislodge them through fair elections .
As of now , they have “ only ” stolen an election as the first step .
If Biden manages to ascend to power , they will attempt to execute their coup d ’ état in full .
If they succeed , they will try their best to preserve the appearance of democracy in America .
After all , every totalitarian system has regular and “ transparent ” elections .
In all such contests , the citizens of the afflicted country “ show ” their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ close to one 100 percent of their vote .
Only the subversives and enemies of the People display ingratitude by voting contrary to what is good for them .
But then their careers ( as well as their existence ) are usually short-lived .
Michael Moore ’ s open letter also reveals just how distorted leftists ’ view of reality is .
In his cloying dispatch to Biden , he thanked him for “ being a good man.
” To most people it has been long obvious that Joe Biden is a corrupt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system for his personal benefit .
The contents of his son ’ s infamous laptop revealed just how deeply corrupt he and his family are .
Here are just some of their exploits that have come to light : “ Hunter was getting roughly $ 1 million per year from Burisma .
Treasury Department alerts reveal that Russian oligarch Elena Baturina wired $ 3.5 million to Biden ’ s interests .
New text messages reveal that China Energy Company Ltd ( CEFC ) apparently paid $ 5 million to the Biden family .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 million-per-year “ fee ” from one of his Chinese business partners.
” Plunder and Deceit : Bi ... Levin , Mark R. Best Price : $ 1.30 Buy New $ 6.37 Using his public position to enrich himself and his kin to the tune of millions of dollars , Joe Biden knows how to take care of business .
Even the purportedly saintly Mrs. Biden was involved in the illicit enterprise .
Holding positions in their fake companies , she helped funnel money that Joe and Hunter generated through their dirty dealings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s brother James ( read here ) .

” The Best of Vasko Kohlmayer

“We are all eager to join with you to repair the damage done to our country — and to eliminate that about our society and our politics which gave us Donald Trump in the first place” wrote the filmmaker Michael Moore in his open letter to Joe Biden the other day.
This statement by the Oscar-winning director should put everyone on alert, because it contains a chilling revelation of the hard left’s ultimate objective. Change the name “Donald Trump” for the term “conservative” or the phrase “everyone who is not a leftist” and you get an idea. Confident they have gotten a hold on the presidency, the hard left will now attempt to fundamentally alter our system in a way that would make it impossible for anyone to challenge their hold on power.
More specifically, they will seek to eliminate “that” which gives non-leftists – those who hold traditional, liberal, democratic and American values – a fair chance at electoral or legislative success. We urge you to pay careful attention to Moore’s language: the Left’s goal is not to try to implement their agenda through our system as it stands now. Their goal is to “eliminate” anything that may stand in their way. They do not mean to play by the rules of the game. They wish to change the parameters in a manner that would give them a permanent advantage. Don’t Hurt Peopl... Kibbe, Matt Best Price: $1.63 Buy New $16.00 (as of 03:24 UTC - Details)
Read what else Moore had to say in his missive to Joe Biden:
“I was so moved by your victory speech Saturday night when you told the immigrants and the children of immigrants that the Dreamers no longer had to live in fear. That Muslims were once again welcomed into our country. That the world could breathe a sigh of relief because we were going to let the planet Earth itself breathe and have some relief. And you told the teachers of America that starting January 20th, ‘one of your own will be living in the White House.’ That just felt instantly good.”
You can sense from the tone of Moore’s letter how confident and elated the hard left feels about its prospects. Some of the measures they will try to force in their effort to permanently ensconce themselves in power include:
Allowing unrestrained immigration from Latin America
Mass importation of Muslims into the United States
Elimination of the Electoral College
Making widespread postal voting a permanent feature of America’s electoral process
Packing the Supreme Court
Awarding Washington DC representation in US Congress
Ending the senate filibuster
Using teachers’ unions to further speed up and deepen indoctrination of students in public schools The Libertarian Mind: ... Boaz, David Best Price: $10.00 Buy New $12.91 (as of 06:33 UTC - Details )
Imposition of extreme environmentalist agenda such as the New Green Deal
Blacklisting and punishing those who oppose their policies or support non-leftist candidates for office
Destruction of the middle-class under the guise of COVID and other purported health emergencies
Institution of widespread political correctness through the codification of hate speech laws
Acceleration of the LGBT agenda in public schools and institutions
Indoctrination of government employees, contractors and recipients of federal funding through critical race theory and other Marxist-derived systems of thought
Even if they accomplish only seventy percent of their agenda, the Left’s hold on power will become for all practical purposes unshakeable. Thus, what they are trying to effect is nothing short of a coup, which would guarantee one Party a permanent grasp on government.
The election we just had was not yet the full coup. It was only its first stage. It is possible to have the occasional stolen election and still preserve democracy. Election theft has happened in the United States before. In the 1960 contest between Kennedy and Nixon, for example, the former was given the edge by stuffed ballot boxes from Chicago which, back then, was run by the notoriously unscrupulous mayor Richard Daley. Kennedy himself admitted so much in private. According to a piece in the American Spectator,
“[T]he day after the election, Kennedy told his friend and future Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee that Daley had told him that he had won Illinois by fraud…”
Despite the fraud the system was essentially preserved, because Kennedy was no far left extremist bent on radically altering the parameters of America’s electoral or societal landscape. The Revolution: A Mani... Ron Paul Best Price: $0.10 Buy New $9.90 (as of 10:54 UTC - Details)
The coup that is in the works now will have succeeded when the Left alters the system to the point when it becomes impossible to dislodge them through fair elections. As of now, they have “only” stolen an election as the first step. If Biden manages to ascend to power, they will attempt to execute their coup d’état in full.
If they succeed, they will try their best to preserve the appearance of democracy in America. After all, every totalitarian system has regular and “transparent” elections. In all such contests, the citizens of the afflicted country “show” their love for the Party by giving it close to one 100 percent of their vote. Only the subversives and enemies of the People display ingratitude by voting contrary to what is good for them. But then their careers (as well as their existence) are usually short-lived.
Michael Moore’s open letter also reveals just how distorted leftists’ view of reality is. In his cloying dispatch to Biden, he thanked him for “being a good man.” To most people it has been long obvious that Joe Biden is a corrupt establishment politician who has been gaming the system for his personal benefit. The contents of his son’s infamous laptop revealed just how deeply corrupt he and his family are. Here are just some of their exploits that have come to light:
“Hunter was getting roughly $1 million per year from Burisma. Treasury Department alerts reveal that Russian oligarch Elena Baturina wired $3.5 million to Biden’s interests. New text messages reveal that China Energy Company Ltd (CEFC) apparently paid $5 million to the Biden family. Another email indicates Hunter demanded a $10 million-per-year “fee” from one of his Chinese business partners.”
Plunder and Deceit: Bi... Levin, Mark R. Best Price: $1.30 Buy New $6.37 (as of 06:50 UTC - Details) Using his public position to enrich himself and his kin to the tune of millions of dollars, Joe Biden knows how to take care of business. Even the purportedly saintly Mrs. Biden was involved in the illicit enterprise. Holding positions in their fake companies, she helped funnel money that Joe and Hunter generated through their dirty dealings to members of their family including Joe’s brother James (read here). Astoundingly, despite Joe Biden’s extensive corruption and abuse of public trust – some of which likely merits criminal convictions – Michael Moore publicly praises him as “a good man.” With this being said, Michael Moore is a greater danger to the future and well-being of this country than the former vice president. Driven by a revolutionary impulse, Moore is an uncompromising ideologue with a twisted moral sense. As is the case with most fierce leftists, his values are completely inverted. To him what is corrupt is good, what is good is bad and what is sacred is despicable. Just watching Moore move and speak gives one a feeling of unease. Clearly troubled but energetic and creative, people like him can wreak a great deal of damage.
Let us, then, not forget his portentous words. Let them sink in and ponder their true meaning, for the talented Mr. Moore expressed the Left’s plans and heartfelt desire more eloquently than anyone ever could:
“We are all eager to join with you to repair the damage done to our country — and to eliminate that about our society and our politics which gave us Donald Trump [non-leftists] in the first place.”
Thus speak totalitarians.

lewrockwell--2020-11-17--Today Is the Day That Communism Came to an End

Today is the day that communism came to an end .
It was autumn 1989 .
Momentous things were taking place in the world .
The Berlin Wall had fallen .
The people of the Eastern Bloc had succeeded at getting to the West through Hungary .
The firm line between east and west was wavering .
The situation was moving away from the course that Warsaw Pact communist governments had charted : that their populations must remain captive within the borders of the Communist Bloc .
It was unclear whether this social contagion for freedom would spread into Czechoslovakia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , arrived , a day etched in history .
This was Students Day , a legal holiday .
Everything had to close under government fiat .
People were off school and off work .
But some folks were agitated about prior government actions which many saw as abuses .
The Politics of Obedie ... Etienne de la Boetie Best Price : $ 7.00 Buy New $ 7.00 When the government gave the people of Czechoslovakia that day off , it was like a match to tinder .
The small flame grew into a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ noted for its bloodlessness .
The Velvet Revolution , we call it today , leaning on what the Czechs called it .
People , for as far as the eye could see , gathered in a giant square in Prague and called for the ouster of their government .
In the face of the idea that saying the wrong words politically could be toxic to one ’ s health , much like in America today , some did not resort to speaking words against their government .
They merely pulled their keys out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Imagine tens of thousands of people jingling their keys at once .
Imagine the horror that would fill you , as a member of the communist government , looking out the window at a crowd , visible as far as the eye could see , and knowing that this delicate sound being made by each individual , growing into a horrifying sound in unison , called for your ouster .
What could a government minister , sitting at their desk , overlooking the square , even have imagined that sound to have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ominous .
How threatening .
How deeply horrifying it must have been to peer out that window .
The day of reckoning had finally arrived .
Propaganda Edward Bernays Best Price : $ 6.42 Buy New $ 9.66 At that moment , a question was answered for them : “ What is the last thought that goes through a tyrant ’ s head ?
” That is the thought that flashed through theirs as they realized what that sound was : reckoning .
It had finally arrived .
Were the government ministers thinking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them ?
They would not longer be allowed to steal an election .
They would not longer be allowed to imprison people for speaking unpopular beliefs .
They would not longer be allowed to move members of a politically undesirable class out of their homes in the middle of the night and to move members of a politically preferred class into that same home in the morning .
With the jingling of keys , the horror show that was Czechoslovak communism — that started in 1948 with force , threats , assassinations , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
That ’ s what the jingling of keys meant .
Before year ’ s end , it would continue no more .

Today is the day that communism came to an end.
It was autumn 1989. Momentous things were taking place in the world.
The Berlin Wall had fallen. The people of the Eastern Bloc had succeeded at getting to the West through Hungary. The firm line between east and west was wavering. The situation was moving away from the course that Warsaw Pact communist governments had charted: that their populations must remain captive within the borders of the Communist Bloc.
It was unclear whether this social contagion for freedom would spread into Czechoslovakia.
But then November 17, 1989, arrived, a day etched in history. This was Students Day, a legal holiday. Everything had to close under government fiat. People were off school and off work. But some folks were agitated about prior government actions which many saw as abuses. The Politics of Obedie... Etienne de la Boetie Best Price: $7.00 Buy New $7.00 (as of 05:45 UTC - Details)
When the government gave the people of Czechoslovakia that day off, it was like a match to tinder. The small flame grew into a big one.
It was a revolution noted for its bloodlessness. The Velvet Revolution, we call it today, leaning on what the Czechs called it. People, for as far as the eye could see, gathered in a giant square in Prague and called for the ouster of their government.
In the face of the idea that saying the wrong words politically could be toxic to one’s health, much like in America today, some did not resort to speaking words against their government. They merely pulled their keys out of their pockets and jingled them.
The message was clear.
Imagine tens of thousands of people jingling their keys at once.
Imagine the horror that would fill you, as a member of the communist government, looking out the window at a crowd, visible as far as the eye could see, and knowing that this delicate sound being made by each individual, growing into a horrifying sound in unison, called for your ouster.
What could a government minister, sitting at their desk, overlooking the square, even have imagined that sound to have been the first time it arose?
How ominous. How threatening. How deeply horrifying it must have been to peer out that window. The day of reckoning had finally arrived. Propaganda Edward Bernays Best Price: $6.42 Buy New $9.66 (as of 07:40 UTC - Details)
At that moment, a question was answered for them: “What is the last thought that goes through a tyrant’s head?” That is the thought that flashed through theirs as they realized what that sound was: reckoning. It had finally arrived. Were the government ministers thinking those thoughts as the keys jingled below them?
They would not longer be allowed to steal an election. They would not longer be allowed to imprison people for speaking unpopular beliefs. They would not longer be allowed to move members of a politically undesirable class out of their homes in the middle of the night and to move members of a politically preferred class into that same home in the morning.
With the jingling of keys, the horror show that was Czechoslovak communism — that started in 1948 with force, threats, assassinations, and stolen elections — would not continue. That’s what the jingling of keys meant.
Before year’s end, it would continue no more.
If they knew what the Czechoslovaks of 1989 knew, I wonder how the Czechoslovaks of 1948 might have behaved differently, as shows of force by common thugs, both on the street and in official roles, and stolen elections stole their country from them in 1948 and instituted communism in their land.
Some fled.
Some fought.
Most complied.
At the heart of this behavior, this jingling of keys, is an ability contained within each of us.

The people jingled those keys, those people did a few other things, and soon it was clear, the writing was on the wall.
The Communist Party of Czechoslovakia no longer had a compliant population on their hands.
The Americans were surely involved, as quietly as possible. The Soviets were surely involved, quite publicly and also behind the scenes. That topic of foreign intervention is largely distraction, for it came down to this: the powers-that-be no longer had a compliant population on their hands.
In fact, quite to the contrary, that population made it known that they were going to be non-compliant and disobedient.
That’s what the jingling of keys said. They weren’t going to sit non-compliantly in their lives quietly and surreptitiously, just the way the government wanted dissent handled. No, they were going to be inconvenient to the narrative and gather in a public square to announce their non-compliance, through the deeply symbolic jingling of keys.
Could any kangaroo court judge convict thousands of people for happening into a square and jingling keys? Could any military force appear to shoot and kill people jingling keys? Unlikely. At least, not at that moment in time and in that country.
At such a point, it is up to the governmental leadership of a country to decide how much pain the leadership wants to endure. That is one of the only remaining variables at such a moment.

The disparity in numbers is just too great.
One of the great hopes of artificial intelligence in the hands of the present-day technocratic class is that AI will even out those disparities and allow computers at the hands of technocrats to be programmed to control and “govern,” a population that doesn’t want to be governed.
If they succeed, this will be a first in human history, in which outnumbering, outgunning, and outmaneuvering a tyrannical entity does not do the trick.
