Welcome to the World Situation Report For April 24, 2022

Michael Cessna April 24, 2022

The goal of this column is to present news from around the world that is not often – if ever – covered by more mainstream entities, using local sources wherever possible, but occasionally using news aggregators not used, again, by the mainstream media. Also, please note that we do use links to Wikipedia; while Wikipedia is well-known as a largely-useless site for any kind of serious research, it does serve as a launch-pad for further inquiry, in addition to being generally free of malicious ads. As with anything from Wikipedia, always verify their sources before making any conclusions based on their pages.

This column will cover the preceding week of news.

Additionally, we are implementing a new way to make it easier for readers to follow story source links: anytime you see a bracketed number marked in green – [1] – those are the source links relating to that story.

North America

Robocall bomb threats caused police in the Louisiana Parishes of Bossier, Caddo and DeSoto to close four separate schools this week. Police noted that the calls were automated voice threats, coming from a VOIP IP address from “outside the United States“, and indicated that they may be related to last week’s robocall threats in North Carolina. [1][2] Similarly, school districts in Minnesota were also evacuated, and local police there related that the threats were “a recording and repetitious“, the schools were evacuated “out of an abundance of caution.” [3][4] In Elyria, Ohio‘s Lorain County Community College (LCCC), meanwhile, the college dealt with yet another bomb threat, after being hit by three bomb threats in the week between March 24 and March 29.[5] Additional threats were made against schools in Florida and Maryland.[6][7][8]

The purpose of these recurring waves of robo-threats – now in at least their 7th year – remain unclear, but they remain an issue throughout the country, as well as various parts of the world.

Turning to the nation’s capital, Washington, DC, US Secret Service officers responding to an emergency call of a “burglary in progress” shot and killed 19-year old Gordon Casey, of Germantown, MD after Casey broke into the Residence of the Ambassador of Peru, career diplomat Oswaldo de Rivero on April 20th. After Casey refused to comply with orders to drop his weapon, described as “a metal stake“, the responding agents attempted to subdue Casey with “less-than-lethal” Taser weapons; when those devices failed, the agents engaged Casey with their conventional sidearms, killing him. Although some members of the ambassador’s family and staff were present at the time of the attack, no injuries were reported. The responding agents were checked for injuries at local hospitals, and released.

The reason behind the attack remains unclear, but the possibility does exist that it may be connected to the ongoing protests in Peru.

Europe

Turning to Europe, shopping centers in Croatia, Hungary, and Serbia all received bomb threats via email this week, forcing the commercial centers to close. [1][2][3]

This comes as the “Islamic State” terror group called for revenge attacks in Europe, following the death of 45 year-old Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi in a raid conducted by US Special Forces in February. Al-Qurashi – believed to have been instrumental in the Sinjar massacre of minority Yazidi’s in 2014, was announced as the group’s new leader on October 31, 2019, after his predecessor, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was also killed by US Special Forces on the night of October 26-27, 2019. According to IS press releases, he has been succeeded by Abu al-Hasan al-Hashimi al-Qurashi.

Here’s to hoping for a short career, as well. [4][5][6][7]

Africa

In the nation of Mali, a “Russian advisor” to the Malian Army from the Russian “Wagner Group” died from his injuries after being mortally wounded by an IED near the town of Hombori, near the border with neighboring Burkina Faso.

This comes as the military junta that has been ruling Mali since taking power in a coup d’état in 2020 announced that it was closing its borders and recalling several of its ambassadors to ECOWAS after those states imposed sanctions on the country following the junta’s announcement that it was “postponing” transitional elections for four years; France – the former European colonial power, withdrew its military forces from the country in February, following the expulsion of the French Ambassador. Mali has been seen as moving closer to Russia as a result.

Earlier in March of this year, Malian forces and Russian “advisors” were accused of massacring an estimated 300 civilians. Mali has been battling various radical Islamist groups, including Al Qaeda, IS-GS, and Boko Haram in a grueling, 10-year long war.

To the southeast, Nigeria continues to burn, as continual attacks, arson, raids, kidnappings and assassinations continue, as ISWAP and Boko Haram forces continue their relentless terror campaign across the face of the beleaguered nation.

One bright spark, however, was the rescue of six women who had been kidnapped by ISWAP in an operation conducted by the Multinational Joint Task Force near Lake Chad, killing five terrorist from both groups, while losing one soldier killed and several wounded.

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Kenyan troops supporting MONUSCO killed five reported terrorists of the Islamic State–Central Africa Province (ISCAP) near the town of Beni.

[Source]

In Somalia, at least six people are dead and seven more wounded, following a bomb attack on a popular seaside restaurant in the capital of Mogadishu frequented by security and government personnel. The Al Qaeda-aligned Al Shabaab terror group claimed responsibility for the attack, part of its ongoing war in an attempt to seize control of the Horn of Africa region. [1]

In related news, Ethiopian authorities announced the arrest of some 34 accused members of Al Shabaab, saying that the suspects were plotting a terror offensive in the country to coincide with both the Islamic Ramadan and Orthodox Christian Easter observances. The Ethiopian NISS intelligence service also said that it had seized weapons and “bank account documents” during the raids. [2]

The Middle East

In Israel, multiple rocket attacks were launched from Palestinian Gaza this week, but either caused no damage, or were intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system.

Aside from scattered minor skirmishes in Syria and Iraq, the Levant was otherwise quiet, this week.

South Asia

Proving that there is no honor among thieves, fighting appears to be increasing in Afghanistan, as the Islamic State–Khorasan Province (ISKP) terror group claimed responsibility for a rocket attack into neighboring Uzbekistan – the first of its kind known – and two bombings of mosques in as many days, in the cities of Mazir-i-Sharif and Kunduz, killing over 40 and wounding nearly 100. The radical Sunni/Salafist ISKP targeted the mosques, as they are frequented by members of the Shi’ite and Sufi religious minorities in the country.

Turning to India’s Jammu & Kashmir, scattered attacks by and shootouts with various militant groups left four reported militants dead, with no reported casualties among security forces, although several arrests were made this week in the long-running conflict. [1][2][3][4][5][6]

In Central India’s Chhattisgarh State – part of the Red Corridor, center of the long-running Maoist insurgency – Maoist guerilla’s reportedly murdered a 30-year-old man, fired at a security camp in Bijapur (wounding four troops) and torched four road construction vehicles at a village in the Bijapur-Dantewada, while five more alleged-Maoists were arrested with explosives and detonators stolen from a construction site, in separate incidents this week.

The Philippines

Finally, Government forces reported killing a total of six New People’s Army (NPA) Communist guerilla’s, including a purported “medical officer”, in three separate incidents on the islands of Luzon and Mindanao. Security forces reported recovering assorted military arms and munitions, including hand grenades.

The NPA has been fighting the Philippine government in an insurgency that began in 1969. Although the NPA’s numbers have reportedly fallen to less than 4,000 fighters, the die-hard core hangs on, continuing to hope against hope that shooting at people will eventually make them agree with you.

Airlines Push to End Mask Mandates

US airlines seek end to Covid mask mandate despite passenger wariness

From www.ft.com
2022-04-12 04:00:55

Excerpt:

Airline executives and politicians are piling on pressure for the US to let Covid-19 mask rules expire on schedule next week, even as a majority of the public wants to keep them.

Forced mask-wearing has caused friction in aircraft cabins. Last year, 72 per cent of a record 5,981 reports of unruly passengers were mask-related, according to the Federal Aviation Administration, which proposed a total of $5mn in fines for such behaviour.

A diverse group of advocates wants to see the mask requirement disappear as it has within other indoor spaces. Next Monday the federal government’s order for travellers on public transport is set to lapse unless officials issue another extension.

Domestic airlines have led the call to end the mandate, with chief executives of seven carriers including American Airlines, United Airlines, and Delta Air Lines telling President Joe Biden in a letter last month that it was “no longer aligned with the realities of the current epidemiological environment.”

“It makes no sense that people are still required to wear masks on aeroplanes, yet are allowed to congregate in crowded restaurants, schools and at sporting events without masks,” especially when considering the quality of on-board air-filtration systems, the executives wrote.

North America

This week, the wave of bomb threats against schools continues, with schools across the country alternatively being evacuated or ordered to ‘shelter in place‘ across the country. Most of the bomb threats against schools this week were delivered by phone, but only one was definitively an automated voice call threat. Interestingly, the targets included a school in the city of Grande Prairie, Alberta in Canada, and a Muslim private school in Worcester, Massachusetts. In the Canadian case, school officials specified to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) that the caller was from the United States.

In Texas, meanwhile, a suspected pipe bomb was disabled at the Ector County courthouse in the county seat of Odessa. As this involved an actual device at a government facility, it falls under the purview of the FBI and the BATFE.

In Mexico, gang violence related to the country’s ongoing drug war continues to erupt in popular tourist destinations, with a beach-side assassination in the west coast city of Acapulco that resulted in a police chase and shootout among sunbathers, and an abrupt uptick of killings in the Yucatan Peninsular state of Quintana Roo.

South America

Three soldiers of the Colombian Army were killed by a roadside IED on the 8th, in the rugged and mountainous Antioquia Department, according to the Army’s 7th Division. Army officials believe the IED was planted by members of the so-called “Structure 18” group, yet another of the kaleidoscope of dissident and breakaway factions that splintered away from the disbandment of the FARC, which had disbanded in 2016 following peace talks with the Colombian government.

In neighboring Venezuela, army troops in rural Apure State reportedly disarmed an IED reportedly laid by the mysterious (and possibly fake) TANCOL group. The Venezuelan government claims that the mystery group was created by the Colombian government to undermine Venezuela and facilitate drug trafficking, while Colombian sources counter that the group is yet another FARC offshoot. Whichever the case, Venezuelan farmers in Apure and next door in Colombia’s Arauca Department are caught in the middle…as usual.

In the Peruvian capital of Lima, protests against the curfew ordered by left-wing President Pedro Castillo turned violent on the 4th. Castillo had ordered the curfew in an attempt to break a strike and demonstrations by Peruvian truck drivers against skyrocketing fuel costs. The strike, which began on March 28th, has begun to seriously impact the Peruvian economy. Various factions within the Peruvian government – including some of Castillo’s allies, slammed the curfew as unconstitutional and “unenforceable.” Protesters reportedly stormed the Supreme Court building, even attempting to set it ablaze, but instead satisfied themselves by looting computers and furniture and burning records. The Freedomist will keep an eye on this situation.

Africa

The Polisario Front has suspended contacts with the government of Spain, after Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez recognized Moroccan control over the former Spanish colony of Western Sahara. This move marks a sharp reversal of long-standing Spanish policy towards the region, which backed a United Nations call for the self-determination of the Sahrawi people, which Morocco has ignored in its efforts to exploit the mineral-rich region. This move comes after Morocco loosened its border controls on Spain’s only remaining African continental possessions of Ceuta, opening the way for the unauthorized crossing of thousands of young Moroccans and migrants from other African countries into Spanish territory, after Spain allowed a Sahrawi leader into the country for treatment for Covid-19. This is a matter of serious concern, as it could breathe new life into the Polisario Front, which could lead to a further destabilization of the region, and a possible expansion of operations by groups such as Al Qaeda in the Maghreb and potentially even the Islamic State in Libya, or their associates, the Islamic State in the Greater Sahara.

To the south, the Malian Army went on the offensive in the central part of the country, reportedly killing some 22 suspected terrorists. However, the United Nations and some human rights organizations have claimed that the offensive may have seen excessive uses of force, and that civilians may have been killed instead.

In neighboring Burkina Faso, an army outpost in Namissiguima was overrun in a “complex attack“, which left twelve troops dead and another 21 wounded. Although the group conducting the attack was not specifically identified, it was likely the Islamic State in the Greater Sahara, who remain the greatest threat in the region.

In a potentially-related event, unidentified gunmen abducted an 83-year old American nun, Sister Suellen Tennyson of the Catholic congregation Marianites of Holy Cross, from the congregation’s house in the parish of Yalgo, part of the diocese of Kaya.

In Nigeria, some 17 troops were reported dead, and another 40 were wounded, after “gunmen” believed to be part of the Ansaru group (a splinter faction of Boko Haram) overran an outpost in the state of Kaduna in a swift and violent attack, mounted on motorcycles, came in armed with AK-47s and RPGs. The attack reportedly destroyed as many as three armored personnel carriers (APC), although precise details remain sketchy.

Middle East

Violence continues in Israel, as Palestinian protests and terror attacks by various groups continue throughout the region. Two of the attacks were claimed by the Islamic State. The recent wave of violence has killed and injured dozens, in the ongoing, and seemingly never-ending violence.

[Source 1] – [Source 2] – [Source 3] – [Source 4]

Scattered, low-level fighting continued throughout eastern Syria this week, with Syrian government soldiers being killed in the southern Daraa region, as Israel reportedly targeted several Assad government military sites in the central part of the country with missile strikes. Elsewhere, Turkish units launched drone and artillery strikes against suspected targets across the northern part of the country. This, as several US troops were injured in an “indirect fire” attack on their base in the oil-rich Deir al-Zor region, reportedly by Iranian-backed militias.

More US forces came under attack in Iraq’s Al-Diwaniyah, capital of Iraq’s Al-Qādisiyyah Governorate, and in Dhi Qar, when their logistics convoys were attacked by roadside bombs. These attacks have been happening frequently, often several times a week, as local groups demand that the Iraqi government enforce a resolution it passed in January of 2020, to expel all foreign forces from the country. Given Iraq’s track record on the subject of expelling foreign forces like the Islamic State in the last eight years, the question of “how” is begged.

Elsewhere in Iraq, scattered military and police actions resulted in arrests of suspects, and several Iraqi security forces killed and wounded.

In Pakistan, the US State Department issued a travel advisory on April 4th, urging US citizens to reconsider travel to the country, due to rising levels of terrorism and sectarian violence. This comes after the March 4th attack on a Peshawar mosque that killed 62 and wounded 196.

Elsewhere in the country, two soldiers and two terrorists were killed in the Sinji area of southwest Balochistan’s Awaran District. This is almost certainly an outgrowth of the long-simmering insurgency in the region.

Meanwhile, a total of five more terror suspects were killed in northwest Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, reportedly from the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan group.

South Asia

India was surprisingly – and thankfully – quiet in general, this week. The only items of real interest were a series of bomb threats against several schools in Bengaluru/Bangalore, made via email, on the 8th. Interestingly, police officials stated that they believed that the emails came from the United States. As we noted above, in our North American section, a school in Canada also received a bomb threat believed to have originated in the US.

Also, two Indian Army soldiers were reported wounded by a bomb blast in the Khunti District, in central Jharkhand State, on the 6th. The device was reportedly of “low power”, and only caused light injuries.

Finally, the US State Department issued another travel advisory, this time for the nation of Sri Lanka, citing elevated COVID-19 risks, fuel and medicine shortages and terrorism.

To quote the advisory in part:

“…There have recently been protests over the economic situation and queues at gas stations, grocery stores and some pharmacies. Protests have occurred throughout the country and have mostly been peaceful. In some instances, police have used water cannons and tear gas to disperse protesters.

“There have also been daily planned power outages across the island, as well as some unplanned power outages, as fuel for backup generators is increasingly scarce. Public transportation in some instances has been limited or curtailed. Travellers should monitor local media for updates on the ongoing situation…”

Forewarned is forearmed.

Being Gay Could Get You Government Contracts in California

Paul Collier April 8, 2022

California’s Public Utility Commission has passed an LGBT quota system for awarding government contracts to businesses. The vote was unanimous, as it would be in a one-seditious-party state such as California, which would be more at home as a North Korean province than an American state.

The PUC will now award at least 1.5 percent of its government contracts to businesses run by gay people, a move that once again from California is blatantly unconstitutional, as well as against the Federal Civil Rights Act of 1968 (in its amended form). The move could mean $600 million in wealth transfer intentionally from heterosexual, or even non-sex-oriented-defined ownership to homosexual or bisexual ownership, for the state of California appears to want to end the human species by rewarding behavior that, were it to become the prevaling socially acceptable and favored expression, would lead to it extinction. But at least the planet will be saved, which will comfort us all in our graves, to be sure.

Being tolerant of homosexuality is as American as free speech, but using the power of the state to favor homosexual activity over heterosexual activity is social, cultural, and national suicide, as humans who are gay will not, in overwhelming aggregate reality, reproduce. Let us hope the backlash to this heterophobic tyranny targets the mostly heterosexual wealthy DNC operatives that are behind these decisions and not the LGBT community, who, for the sake of all Americans, must remain free to live as they choose just as everyone else must be free to feel whatever they want about the LGBT community (short of wishing to impede their ability to pursue their own definitions of happiness).

California’s Landmark General Order 156 now includes an aspirational goal of 1.5% for LGBT businesses in contracting with California-based Utility Companies, worth over $600 million per year in competitive contracts

SAN FRANCISCO, April 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — BuildOUT California is happy to announce that the California Public Utilities (CPUC) today, by unanimous vote, approved a historic measure that will set an aspirational goal of 1.5% for the inclusion of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) certified businesses in the competitive contracting process with California-based utilities like AT&T, PG&E and Southern California Edison Company. This development will be an update to the CPUC’s Utility Supplier Diversity Program, known as General Order 156, which was created by a 1983 law (Assembly Bill 3638), under the leadership of late Assemblywoman Gwen Moore, a prominent civil rights advocate. Ms. Moore served in the California Assembly from 1978 through 1994, representing…

Biden’s Covid-19 Propagandist Moves Into New Disney Digs

Paul Collier April 7, 2022

Biden’s Covid-19 content marketing manager is no longer working for the President, as she has taken a new job with Walt Disney, pushing woketarianism on the masses. As Disney appears all-in on becoming a company of woketarianism, the Covid-19 agit prop wizard, Kristina Shake, now sets her sites on moving from ostensibly attempting to stop a virus to intentionally trying to spread one.
The move showcases just how incestuous the relation is between the DNC-CCP and its corporate ‘allies,’ who are also best frenemies with America’s number one enemy, China. Given the anti-American nature of woketarianism (which denies the individual altogether, let alone individual rights), it seems fitting a member of the most anti-American regime in US history would move so seamlessly from one agit prop war machine aimed at American freedom, Covid lockdown, to another, Disney woketarianism.

Under Growing Suspicion, NY Supreme Court Judge Ends Own Life

Ivo Fysic April 7, 2022

New York State Supreme Court Judge John L. Michalski was announced deceased at first by media outlets on the day of his death, Tuesday, April 5th. But now, the announcement was made that the judge had committed suicide, evidence shows.

Judge Michalski has been coming under suspicion of potential criminal activity himself, with a close friend currently facing federal prosecution, and his home last week being searched by law enforcement. The purpose of the search was ostensibly related to the friend’s case, but now speculation runs that the search might have also been to specifically target Michalski for prosecution as well.

New York State Supreme Court Judge Dies by Suicide

Excerpt:

A New York State judge whose home was searched by law enforcement authorities last month against the backdrop of the federal prosecution of one of his former clients killed himself on Tuesday, one of his lawyers said.

The judge, John L. Michalski, an acting justice of the State Supreme Court, was found dead at his home in Amherst, N.Y., a Buffalo suburb, shortly before noon, said the lawyer, Terrence Connors.

“It’s difficult to explain what a tragedy this is,” said Mr. Connors, a longtime friend of Justice Michalski’s, adding that “it would be difficult to find a judge who was more respected” in the Western New York legal community.

The Amherst police were not able to provide information about Justice Michalski’s death late Tuesday. A spokesman for the state court system did not respond to a request for comment. Justice Michalski was appointed to the Court of Claims in 2006 and named as an acting Supreme Court justice the same year, according to his official court…

BLM Springs for New Million House for Founder

BLM Springs for New $6 Million House for Founder

Ivo Fysic April 5, 2022

It looks like Black Lives Matter a LOT MORE when you’re the founder of BLM than when you are not. The most valuable black life is your own founder. BLM has made that clear, it appears, if allegations are true that the organization spent $6 million for a new house for their founder Patrisse Cullors. NY Magazine has released a report alleging that the home was paid for in cash back in 2020 by the organization.

Black Lives Matter Organization Reportedly Used Donor Cash to Buy a $6 Million House

Excerpt:

More recently, the BLM organization has come under increased scrutiny for its shady finances, even being forced to halt fundraising at one point.

This new revelation is just more of the same.

Sean Campbell writes in NY Magazine:

Black Lives Matter Secretly Bought a $6 Million House Allies and critics alike have questioned where the organization’s money has gone.

On a sunny day late last spring, three leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement — Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza, and Melina Abdullah — sat around a table on the patio of an expensive house in Southern California. The women were recording a YouTube video to mark the first anniversary of George Floyd’s murder, and they discussed their racial-justice work and the difficulties they had faced over the year…

None of the women acknowledged the house behind them. It’s far from a box, with more than 6,500 square feet, more than half a dozen bedrooms and bathrooms, several fireplaces, a soundstage, a pool and bungalow, and parking for more than 20 cars, according to real-estate listings. The California property was purchased for nearly $6 million in cash in October 2020 with money that had been donated to BLMGNF.

Non-Binary Ideology Behind Biden’s ID XO Change

Ivo Fysic April 5, 2022

Biden’s America is pushing hard for forcing the breakdown of gender normative, heteronormative standards that are essential reflections of the overwhelming aggregates of human expression and being. The President’s latest move is to give state sanction and legitimacy to the notion of the non-gender gender called non-binary, a special category that seems to be dominated by adult children who like to dress like post-modern apocalyptic clowns.

Passports and US ID’s will now offer a new category on gender identity, non-binary. The move is sure to be one exploited by criminals and terrorists who will use the special designation to hide their true identities. The Biden administration hopes to break down social norms to accelerate the destruction of Americanism and the rise of a new marxio-corporatism that can exploit humans from cradle (those they let live) to grave.

U.S. to issue gender neutral passports, take steps to combat anti- transgender laws

From www.reuters.com
2022-04-01 01:32:00

Excerpt:

WASHINGTON, March 31 (Reuters) – Americans will be allowed to choose an X for gender on their passport applications and select their sex on Social Security cards, the Biden administration said on Thursday in announcing measures to support transgender Americans against wave of state laws targeting them.

The State Department in June said U.S. citizens could select their gender on applications without having to submit medical documentation. In October, it issued the first American passport with an “X” gender marker, designed to give nonbinary, intersex and gender-nonconforming people an option other than male or female on their travel document.

“Starting on April 11, U.S. citizens will be able to select an X as their gender marker on their U.S. passport application, and the option will become available for other forms of documentation next year,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement.

Slapping the Mask Off – How American “Leftism” is Destroying Adult Civility

Paul Collier March 29, 2022

Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars, and in so doing he ripped the mask off the American Billionaire Left, exposing the dangerous ideology by revealing through the reactions of “Americans” the division between the adults of America and the Peter Pan adults of the American Left, who clearly have rejected Bill or Rights values for authoritarian, police state values.

But this slap began in 2015, when the Punch a Nazi meme was born, the meme that reinforced the notion that human beings have a right to physically harm and threaten others for their beliefs and words alone.

As Donald J. Trump rose in 2015, many of my former friends started to separate from me either because I hadn’t gone far right or I hadn’t gone far left. As Trump rose, he emboldened far right elements just through his success alone and his use of certain phrases that seem to come from this same far right.

America First was once genuinely a dog whistle for America for the Whites, though I have no doubt Trump was not intending it as a dog whistle for white supremacism. Even if he wasn’t, the marketing decisions of the Trump campaign both emboldened the far left and the far right.

As white supremacists marched, Antifa was able to use the fear of the white man to gain recruits, mostly from suburban upper middle class white neighborhoods. In the course of the great meme wars of 2015, the prevailing brutal expressions of both sides came in the form of dropping Communists from helicopters and punching Nazis.

Actual white supremacism hasn’t been popular among American whites since probably as far back as the 1970s. There are far less isolated white communities than there were before the 70s, and since the 70s, the conglomeration of most of our major social institutions has accelerated so much that even where different races live in racially exclusive communities, they are still experiencing daily interactions with people that represent most of the major races of the world in the places they work and the places they shop.

The internet has only accelerated our humanizing of peoples regardless of their races as more and more humans in America find allegiances with others more based on their shared beliefs than their race. The hysteria over white supremacism has been almost entirely ‘fake news,’ to borrow a phrase that also emerged in 2015.

In point of fact, too many humans that happen to be white or happen to be black, especially, find themselves involved in friendly, and even familial, ways with people of different races. My family, for instance, in the last two generations, has absorbed DNA and created blood family ties with people of African descent, people of “Latin” descent, and people of Asian descent. And my story is hardly unique among other previously white families that are now mixed-race families.

White Supremacism was the scapegoat the American Left needed to recruit white elites, children of well-off white parents, children who more than almost any other group of white children, most assuredly benefited significantly from white dominance (which wasn’t ever white dominance, but really only rich white family dominance).

The American Left itself is largely the product of agit prop created by the few corporations that control the vast majority of content Americans consume on a daily basis. These corporations themselves are controlled by a small number of overwhelmingly white billionaire families that derived their wealth which created their initial power most assuredly from actual white supremacism.

It is not lost on us who pay attention that the American Left in its current form is wholly the manufactured product of the two classes of whites that most benefited from white supremacism, the billionaire class and the upper middle class. The children of these families would write the books and become the activist celebrities of the anti-white movement that was really a dialectical white supremacist movement the whole time.

The American Left is the Dialectical KKK.

Black Americans appears to mostly have bought the sale, convinced that the white devil is poised to finish them off at any time, convinced mostly by the most powerful, the most beneficial of white supremacism, in America today. It is as if the master has convinced them that the poor whites living next to them are the reason they are slaves, so the master whips them up in a frenzy to attack the poor whites, but lets them know that they can never defeat these white devils without the assistance, the aid, of the good whites, the slave masters themselves. Also, they will have to stay on the plantation if they wish to stay safe from the murdering white devil.

Preventing the American people from building a race-irrelevant society based on an Individual-rights constitutional Republic is the main goal of this project, the American Left project, as engineered by the whites that benefited the most from actual racism. The goal is to destroy the ability of the weak to stop the strong from controlling them. The goal is to keep racism alive.

The bill of rights, when the state fears a people who assume these rights are theirs, is the bedrock of a society that can exchange value with one another without being compelled to like one another. The American Left wants total control of hearts and minds, because their project demands it. Without total control, their worldview can never come to be, as it is fundamentally anathema with peaceful coexistence. It is a war ideology designed to produce more war, more conflict, more upheaval, more dependence on central power to protect you from the devils.

It is a psycho-social tool designed by white billionaires to corral the black communities and contain the poor white communities. It is a psycho-social tool designed to murder the American republic and replace it with something that allows the white billionaire class to move with impunity, whose end goals have little to do with ending racism, bigotry, and hate.

It has everything to do with controlling competition, primarily from the white communities, who have to lose freedom to be controlled, but also to maintain control over the black communities, who can be granted a slight increase in freedoms while still being controlled. The freedoms granted are bribes for the black community to continue to be the DNC’s source for votes without working for them, to become a massive voting block that will never hold you accountable.

In this backdrop, the events of February 28^th, 2022, will go down in history as the beginning of the end of the Billionaire Left’s stranglehold on society and culture, and the beginning of the end of their stranglehold on black communities.

What happened on this date? Will Smith announced to the world that American Leftist thought is entirely and wholly incompatible with basic humanity, and most assuredly with adult maturity. Leftist thought at its core not only allows for individuals to violently assault human beings for words and beliefs alone, but actually demands it. Failure to punch a Nazi could result in you being punched for being a Nazi.

Will Smith, during a live broadcast of the Academy Awards, walked on stage and slapped a comedian, Chris Rock, for daring to make a joke about his wife. Immediately afterwards, the assaulter was the one offering comfort by other celebrities during a commercial break. After the break, Will Smith incorporated Leftist emotion-speak to veil himself once again in the priest-king aura the Billionaire Left has worked so hard to cultivate with the celebrity class, the priest-cult spokesmodels of the DNC, the political vehicle of power of the Billionaire Left.

He wrapped himself up in “I am Jesus” language shortly after just slapping a comedian for making a joke about his wife.

The Academy, that bastion of nonce the world has come to know through such luminaries as Jeffrey Epstein and Harvey Weinstein, not only didn’t immediately have Will Smith removed for assaulting one of their chosen presenters, they went ahead and awarded him an Oscar for best actor. His speech did just as much to undo the cultural and social power of billionaire leftism as his slap did.

The way the Leftists treated Will Smith after violating basic adult human civility standards that many children have already learned (sticks and stones break my bones, but words will never hurt me) further destroys their social and cultural standing among an increasing number of Americans, including black Americans, who are already beginning to peel away from the DNC machine in growing recognition of how they’ve been played by billionaires to do the bidding of billionaires by promising to end a devil that didn’t exist anywhere but inside these same billionaires the whole time.

Black America, the threatening call is coming from inside your own house, the billionaire left you so unconditionally support.

Will Smith claimed in his acceptance speech to be some sort of ambassador of love, a typical starting point for any leftist assault. Afterwards, he then made himself the Moses of his people by declaring that he was a river to his people. This is the second stage of a leftist assault. The final stage is to identify the devil that is interfering with love and declaring your personal intention and confidence in ending hate by murdering the anti-love people.

Will Smith didn’t get to that final part of his speech, but he walked you up to the door of it, implying even that ‘my people’ need a rescuer, which means they must have an enemy they must be ‘protected from.’

First, the billionaire left appeals to your basic humanity by promising to be the ambassadors of love. They’ll serenade you for a while at this point, gushing with declarations like “love wins” and “love doesn’t judge.” Next, they’ll identify themselves somehow as the priests of this cult who have the secret (woke) power to finally conquer hate and let love win. Finally, they’ll identify the enemy of love and proceed to push you to hate these enemies of love and commit to ending the existential threat to love by murdering, enslaving, and excommunicating from society these enemies of love.

It is a gnostic religion that requires human sacrifices.

When Will Smith slapped Chris Rock, the next day “Americans’ actually debated whether Smith did anything wrong or not. I combed the local news sites, perhaps as much as a hundred, from around the country to get a gauge of the country, and what I found was disheartening and encouraging. It was disheartening because the adults who seem to believe that physically harming others for beliefs and words is ok, (in other words, it’s ok to punch Nazis), was close to 50 percent of the responses I saw on these news sites’ posts.

This group, whether they realize it or not, wants to make sure that free speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences (which means it’s not actually free speech). They are seditionists at heart, for they reject the American Bill of Rights and replace it with Billionaire Leftism.

These local news outlets are all controlled by the same handful of Leftist billionaire corporations, and it showed, as the narratives that emerged in their stories fell along two lines, ‘what do you think of what happened’ or highlighting the traumatic and deadly disease of losing your hair.

The decision-makers in this cult must rightly have determined that attempting to build a narrative that legitimized Will Smith would nakedly reveal the true nature of these local news outlets that have devolved to become mere content marketing farms and agit prop distribution centers for the billionaire left.

It would reveal that the people writing your news are immature, violent, dangerous children who are very unsafe neighbors to have in your community. If they weren’t, they’d soon be fired.

At the same time, they couldn’t speak directly against Will Smith, a fact that in and of itself should indict these local news outlets as it is as clear that Will Smith assaulted a man and acted like a spoiled brat petulant child, both during the slap and during the acceptance speech, something that is obvious to mature human adults not indoctrinated into a cult.

The goal here is to push that proverbial Overton window towards greater acceptance of punishing thought, something the billionaire class is desperate to gain control over, human thought, lest the innovators among the poors one day fell their Empires simply by no longer needing them.

What was encouraging, though, was how many Americans, of many races, in response to these adult children supporting slapping a man for saying a joke seemed to clearly see how obviously inviolate of adult civility this whole affair represents. But more than that, I saw responses from people not mired in deep political and philosophical thought still clearly understand the existential risk to Americanism that this idea we can punish people for words and thoughts alone has become.

If you believe in punching Nazis, you are a seditionist against the American republic, which exists not in Washington but in the hearts of the real government, the American people (leftists not welcomed, for you are so violently opposed to it).

We are a nation that does not require a people to even like one another to exchange value with one another peacefully. This is what civility is. It’s not about politeness for politeness’ sake, or some sort of puritanical convention, or, as the billionaire left really wants you to believe, white supremacist constructs (which should tell you in and of itself how dangerous and how seditious to Americanism this billionaire leftism has become).

Civility enables people to mind their own business and still be able to buy a hotdog from a vendor or start an education learning how become a geneticist. Without civility, open thought dies. Without civility, the access to neutral truth dies. We become the corrupt, through and through, like Russia, or China, both of which are experiencing massive collapses in key industries in large part thanks to the deep corruption that emerges from societies that punch Nazis, like the billionaire left wants you do.

As for the theory that this was a work, well, one cannot fully rule out that possibility. If it were a work, and that were discovered, then this whole affair would dramatically accelerate the death of the billionaire left’s stranglehold on culture.

If I am correct in my assumptions, over the next few months you will begin to see more activity by billionaires that were either once part of the billionaire left or never were, that start to move towards supporting “American” standards like the right to free speech. This will happen not because they all found the American Jesus in them, so to speak, but because they see the writing on the wall. American Leftism is no longer a viable vehicle of power in America.

The other leftist billionaires might find themselves doubling down and going even harder, which will only work to the good of those of us who resist their corruption-enabling, cheat-enabling cult.

Will Smith smacked the mask of the American Billionaire Left, and it is never going back on again.
