Apparently, the Clmate Czar himself, John Kerry, chose to fly private to his righteous world-saving meeting at Martha’s Vineyard with former President Barack Hussein Obama. The meeting was actually a birthday party for Barack, which was celebrated by a whose who of celebrities and business leaders.
This article has been updated from a previous version to reflect a statement from a State Department spokesperson.
A State Department spokesperson fired back after initial reports claimed that United States Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry took a private jet to the island of…
Australia’s zeal to protect its citizens might be causing more harm than good, as a man they arrested for not wearing a mask proceeded to have a heart attack.
Yeah, this is in Australia but tyranny has no borders. I’ve seen some pretty insane, corrupt actions going on here in the United States. So other than the accents and throwing shrimp on the barbies, this really could happen here. A man was outside running with his lady friend, wearing no mask because he’s outside, he’s running, and he’s got a history of heart issues, plus he’s outside and running (echo in here?) when the Aussie Po-Po put him under arrest. For not wearing a mask. While outside. And running. It was then that the lady friend whipped out her phone to record the pr*cks cuffing him and leading him away.

Democrats control the Capitol in California and the GOP leadership have played the role of controlled opposition in what has become an authoritarian one-party regime. With the recall election against Governor Newsom, a rabid leftist Democrat, Republicans are once again poised to perpetuate the one-party rule while pretending to be opposition thereto.
According to an ABC10 News Poll, the recall effort against Governor Newsom, a rabid Democrat, some 51% of voters support recall, 40% are against recall, and 9% are undecided. But this is not good news for Republicans, who, while led by Larry Elder, present a divided front which is ensuring the top Democrat would take the race.
The breakdown is as follows:
27 percent — Kevin Paffrath (D) 23 percent — Larry Elder (R) 20 percent — Undecided 10 percent — John Cox (R) 5 percent — Kevin Faulconer (R) 4 percent — Caitlyn Jenner (R) 3 percent — Kevin Kiley (R)
Paffrath is a YouTube personality who stated in his campaign he would deploy the national guard to remove homeless camps which have been allowed to flourish around California. Not a typical Democrat, Paffrath is a real estate investor and landlord, known at one point as a “landlord influencer”, with a social media following of 1.68 million subscribers. If Paffrath, a native of Germany whose parents brought him to California when he was 18, and who lives in Ventura, CA, wins he would be the youngest governor ever. He would also run afoul of the hard left wing of the Democratic Party.
On the other hand, he is a fresh face and would allow the Democrats to replace an unpopular governor whose continued tenure has the potential of strengthening the GOP, especially in those few swing US House Districts where the GOP could, if it knew how to fight, get some pick-ups.
The recall election is scheduled for September 14, 2021 while the press in California remain firmly in the tank for Governor Newsom. The pretend act that they are journalists and not merely political hacks working in lockstep to keep Camifornia under a one-party authoritarian regime isn’t wearing well as all their preachments against the recall have failed to sway public opinion their way. Even in the absence of any fair and equitable coverage of news, balanced by representing all Californians other than the hard left, the public appears, at least in this case, to be diverging from the rabidly partisan “press” establishment.
Meanwhile, the Republican Party, which has demonstrated an amazing fecklessness in the face of many assaults on political freedom by the Democratic Party, has refused to endorse a single candidate and create a united front giving them a fighting chance to take the governorship.
As the GOP field is led by Larry Elder who garners overall 23% support by all voters, it is not surprising the mostly all white GOP establishment opted not to endorse a candidate. The issue isn’t Larry Elder’s race, he is a Black man, the issue is the moral weakness of the Party establishment which is unfit to fight any battle against Democrats or against the onslaught against freedom.
Between them, Republicans have over 55% of the vote, a stunning number, with 20% of voters undecided, but thanks to a lack of unity, it would appear the GOP have once again snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. The closest GOP comeptitor to Elder, however, has 10% of the vote, far behind “undecided” at 20%, but the GOP leadership has abdicated the field, on a blatant display of just how much of a “controlled opposition” the Party is.
While the GOP establishment claim their focus is on the recall “question 1” which is to say yes to recall the governor, their tactical response only serves the Democrats, who themselves may wish to recall the unpopular governor and get a second chance with a fresh face. It is almost as if the GOP made a deal with Democrats to replace the unpopular governor with another Democrat as the leadership prevent a unified front from coming together to ensure a win for Republicans.
Regardless of what rank and file Republicans want, with the majority clearly behind Elder, the GOP leadership are playing a different game which has nothing to do with defeating Democrats and everything to do with keeping the status quo.
Only 24% of California voters are registered Republicans, a number that exposes the incompetence of the Party which hasn’t even made a serious effort to close the gap by reaching out to other communities of people, and their concerns and issues, outside their white base. Inviting people into the fold from diverse backgrounds and ethnicities as equals, and dignifying their needs and aspirations, has never occured to the leaders of this moribund Party.
The Party bigwigs voted 90% to not endorse any candidate and then pat themselves on the back claiming that if they endorsed any one candidate “some voters might stay home.” This is misdirection meant to put a happy face on the cowardice of the Party or, worse, their instinctive recoil at seeing a non-white head their effort, even if he has the best chance to win and even if most rank and file Republicans are behind him.
If the poll holds, Democrats will have used Republican money and efforts to remove an unpopular governor and give them a chance to replace him with a young and more palatable face which ensures they hold on to power.
PGC – “Intelligent” drones run a quick diagnostic of the state of humans at a given scene. This data is beyond instantly filtered back and analysed by a team of deep learning ai machines, which, beyond instantly, give instructions as to mode of operation to assume next, not a complex list of commands, just an operational directive with parameters assigned.
These drone quickly identify the particular type of people the operators, owners of the drones have assigned them to identify, and for what purpose. Drones then rush in to do what has to be done to whom, according to the parameters of the operation given to them by higher up AI who received their orders from a small council of humans who determined what kind of humans are desirable and what kind of humans are not.
This scenario is most likely already here, but if you doubt it, the Czech are publicly releasing a project alleged to have created drones with brains, drones that can identify people who might be fighting or injured or whatever, though the story doesn’t bother to explore the possible beyond the narrative given them from the Czechs themselves.
Many of the liberty-shielding standards in America simply don’t exist in Europe, so we can expect Europe to be the immediate laboratory of how to integrate police state control into current year tech opportunities. Whatever works in Europe, narratives will begin to form in America that support the kind of stories of fear it would take to convince Americans to accept yet another invasion on their liberties.
Fights and injuries occurring inside large groups of people could soon be easier to detect, thanks to a new Czech-developed crowd surveillance system that analyses drone footage via the use of neural networks.
The innovative new system was developed through a joint research programme between the Brno University of Technology and the Czech Police, who have increasingly turned to drones to monitor large crowds in recent years.
Existing drones, however, are nowhere near as efficient as they could be, according to David Bažout, a fresh graduate from the university’s Information Technology faculty.
PGC – There is yet another social media app coming on board to join the not-at-all-saturated-and-dominated market. That app is called Gossip. The app does this, by the CEO’s own words:
“Our product allows users to create and share short voice stories (30s or less) that expire every 7 days – because who wants to listen to the old stuff?”
The app itself is interesting in its temporality, not that you will be immune from archiving if you use this app, but the spirt of the creation itself could be there for what the CEO would hope to be its vast majority audience.
These are two spirits, as I see them, brevity and temporailty.
The spirit of brevity, matches the age we are currently in as far as our primary means of regular communication, and the spirit of temporality, a spirit I would argue we live in though we have strong veneers of the eternal thjat cut us from seeing the nature of the things we create in current year, that awful reality we so desperately want to avoid looking at.
To die is to live, to live is to die.
The app itself is interesting enough to warrant some coverage, but this quote from the CEO is what interested me in writing about this:
“Most of the time the content we are listening to augments our perception of reality.”
Words create internal patterns that set, what I call, our heuristical institutional patternings, our habits of action and supposition that guide and compel us through the overwhelming majority of the actions we take, be it thinking or dialing a number.
This is a recognition of the assumptions of many philosophers regarding the nature of being, whether it is an internal imagining, and thus the place for investigation, or the fruit of an external happening, and thus making the external the place for the investigation into the nature of being.
Of course, there are many hybrids of these assumptions and one would guess, perhaps, that this CEO of Gossip might very well one of these hybrids, those that dance between the internal possible and external possible of being. Plato, it could be argued (and has) had his own balancing act he held between the nature of being, which was not purely logical, observational, nor was it relative, there were absolutes.
Plato’s absolutes are ideals that you don’t dare define too particularly lest you become reduced by them until you no longer exist in them, they wholly exist in you.
So, if our Gossip CEO does reside somewhere in the midst of the internal and the external as to the origin of selfness within our observational senses, then I give this project a good chance of succeeding, but if the CEO is all-too-external-assuming, then Gossip will meat the heavy maw of moral authority in short order.
The reason I put him in this category is because of his quote, where he refers to the content outside the self as an augmentation to our reality, but not the full definer of it. This does not mean, from one quote, you can deduce this man walks between internal and external, it only means he said nothing in this interview to suggest otherwise, and that quote perfectly sums up the position he seems to take.
This is very important for a small start-up with a CEO willing to put his narrative on their brand. The idea itself is snapchatty, but perhaps the longer life will attract people that will do what he seems to hope the app will do for people, create good ephemera that can help their bodies calibrate positively in the world around them. If your content is affirming, your day just might be affected by that pattern as well.
HackerNoon Reporter: Please tell us briefly about your background.
My background is in augmented reality. I’m passionate about products where users can share what they experience, and how they feel – this is something I was working on before I started Gossip, which is also augmented reality, just in a different way.
Most of the time the content we are listening to augments our perception of reality.
If we are listening to a funny story, we might leave a bigger tip to the waiter or grant an extra smile.
PGC – It’s not enough to be owned by your dependence on centralized systems, these same sources of central power now want your dependence on their platforms to offer them more than merely control through dependency on your life. The data you produce in how you execute your dependency on these centralized systems is well-documented thanks to the mostly digital manifestations and augmentations that human action is now expressed through.
This means that Google and Facebook and Amazon know enough about you to pretty much put you in any algorthm they want to determine your worth according to a system’s design. If your system wants to figure out whose going to live longer to offer more insurance, these guys can get you that information.
If your system wants to figure out whose the more viable money merchant, who has consistent financially ‘responsible’ behavior, these guys can tell you that as well. Given the fact that all of these companies have agreed in whole or in part to the code of race, gender, sexuality supremacisn, it reasonable to assume that such assessments of credit worthiness won’t be merely based on your direct financial action, but your political, your religious ones as well.
The article from Bloomberg holds this up as a good heads up for Financial Institutions, to get on board the social media data mining gravy trane where you get to assess the worth of human beings according to their interactions on platforms that are highly regimented and exclusive in who or what they allow on their platforms in the first place.
Get in on that sacred code, banks, so you can find out more and more about the people you will soon be banning from life because of their lack of moral plum by your strictly enforced moral supremacist standards.
Why should banking watchdogs worry about the consumer internet? The answer, as researchers have been warning for some time, lies in their “DNA loop,” shorthand for data, network, activity. It’s a powerful circuit, which regulators must be prepared to break if they want to stop the next financial crisis in time.
The original data about consumers may come from e-commerce, social media or online searches; nothing to do with money. But in an ever-expanding successful network, it becomes easy to mine disparate bits of information to map users’ repayment behavior, and set up lending operations to exploit that knowledge. User activity on payment and loan platforms generates yet more data.
PGC – CNN continues to use its considerable power and advantage to target everyday Americans for economic destruction should they dare oppose CNN’s manner of conducting business, which is to essentially become a DNC propaganda machine using increasingly violent and divisive rhetoric in clear efforts to trigger violent thoughts and action to anyone who cares to pay attention.
That same CNN has decided to dox a private citizen they claim is sharing “medical misinformation.” They’ve already conditioned the perpetually angries among us that minformation is just as bad as the worse sin you could ever commit if you could hope to be considered human, being racist.
Misinformation usage will be called a dog whistle of white supremacism soon enough, with the definition of mininformation, again, being declared by the most powerful of power among us, the few that control our state, our markets, our culture, our schools.
Using this epithet, it was easy enough for CNN to whip its minions into a frenzy to do what the angries do, rip their neighbors to shreds to feel better about their own moral standing in an authoritarian land.
CNN showed up at his office. CNN showed up at his house. CNN eventually hunted him down on a bike ride.
[We wanted to ask him] about the misinformation he’s been posting like masks don’t work, vaccines can be dangerous, and vitamin C or D can prevent or treat the coronavirus.
And now, CNN gets to gloss over this story so as to protect the enforcers from having to look at the metaphorical dead body they just about already created. This doctor will have his whole life destroyed, economically and socially, by the angries that these DNC war machines mostly created, agnries who will do what they have to do to satisfy the great god ba’al that is CNN, a god that demands you sacrifice your children to appease him.
Feeling hatred for your fellow man is the surest sign you’re a corpo-woketarianz, of the CNN and Google and DNC variety.
The Wuhan lab leader who’s lab has been accused of leaking the Covid-19 virus has more predictions for the world. She originally spoke out to declare that rumors of the Wuhan virus leaking out of her lab were “baseless,” is now warning the world that an apocalyptic version of the coronavirus is on the way.
CHINA’S “batwoman” has warned further deadly Covid variants are set to sweep across the world amid fears a catastrophic “doomsday” mutation could emerge.
PGC – A move by YouTube to drop a local county government city council meeting being held on the platform further illustrates the real power advantage the digital service has over even our own sovereign governments, from local to national.
The move was made because they allegedly shared misinformation regaumrding the Covid-19 vaccine and treatment of the virus. The term misinformation should come to mean “outside the orthodoxy of the cabal of government, social, market, and media leaders have agreed to universally enforce.”
Despite unblocking and attempting to walk back the block, YouTube just gave more governments, not just American ones, more incentive to create laws to combat the power the platform seems to want to take over the governments of the world.
Big U.S. tech companies have been bombarded by criticism for failing to curtail the spread of misinformation. In response, the firms have taken a harder line during the pandemic.
The issue started here last Tuesday, when council members heard from a large and angry crowd before voting to…
PGC – Alibaba is letting the world know that things don’t look so great there in Xi land, as Chairman Xi finds himself having to pay for an inordinate amount of catastrophic loss and repair in the wake of numerous dams breaking throughout the country.
Such catastrophes are just the latest in a series of bad events for Chairman Xi, not the least of which is what the Chinese really remember about just how Xi handled the crackdown at the initial surge of the Coronavirus.
He has little choice but to reign in the glorious images that might compete with him in charismatic leadership. Those images are largely the new billionaires the Chinese compromise with Capitalism has created. Now, the party must end for the sake of the party, for the glittering billionaires must be diminished and put to heel, else talk swirls around a new priest-king to lead the people into the true mandate of heaven, a mandate Xi appears to have lost.
Alibaba is warning its investors of diminished returns in anticipation of that new reality, at least in part, higher, much higher taxes. More regulations are sure to come as well across the board for all Chinese companies to be in sync with the CCP, the Chinese Communist Party, a party that speaks for them, and they in turn speak what the party tells them to speak.
The DNC fantasy that is the CCP is now in the unenviable position of having to heel the very engine that rose it to world power in the first place, the compromise with Capitalism. Now, for the sake of saving Xi’s face, the glitter must fall, and the compromise, while not over, is now reduced to Capitalism on an extremeley short leash, but with new moral laws to mold the people into workers yes, but, more importantly, into living, breathing examples of the CCP, another DNC fantasy.
(Bloomberg) — Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. has warned investors that years-long government tax breaks for the internet industry will start to dwindle, adding billions of dollars in costs for China’s largest corporations as Beijing extends its campaign to rein in the sector.
