Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"I used to hear Christians complain about Muslim women walking around in public wearing a hijab, niqab, or burka. Not any more. Now I can’t hear them say anything because of the face masks that they are wearing."
Laurence Vance

"The people pulling down statues are just starting their orgy of destruction. If they think that America is stained irreparably by its history, then there is almost nothing they won’t view as a candidate for destruction. It’s easy for the America haters to conjure up an endless list of persons, places and things that qualify for destruction. If by some moronic application of logic, it is thought that removing a statue of John Calhoun does some good in battling racism, then why not destroy his books throughout America’s libraries? And while doing that, why not destroy all the works of all the Founding Fathers and Framers? Book-burning is next. Why not destroy the Constitution? Why not destroy the Declaration of Independence? Why not destroy the Liberty Bell? Why not destroy anything by anybody who defended America? Why not desecrate graves? Why not then destroy living persons who have anything good to say about America? For America haters, the menu of targets for destruction is practically infinite.
Guarding everything and everyone in America is far too costly a task. That’s the reason why the vandals must be stopped NOW, not next week but NOW. How to stop them? It will take guns and bullets. Some vandals will probably be wounded or even killed. This will not be only to protect statues and stop crimes from being committed, but to stop a broader movement. That movement will become far worse if not checked now. That movement has the wider goal of destroying the country and destroying individual freedom.
The domestic barbarians condemn slavery, but that is a ruse. Their goal is to end freedom."
Michael Rozeff

"Thanks a lot, American parents, for sending your kids to all of these 'prestigious' universities over the past thirty years and paying no attention at all to what their minds were being filled with while there.  Unless of course your mind was already filled with Marxist mush by the last generation of campus commies."
Tom DiLorenzo

"If racism is 'bigotry plus power,' then as inanimate objects, statues have no power.  Therefore, statues cannot be racist, by definition.
But those attacking them indeed have power over them to topple them. They have bigotry plus power.
Therefore those toppling the statues – and not the statues themselves – are racist.
This is where their own tautological logic leads."
Rev. Larry Beane

"It wasn’t racist for the black king of Dahomey to create the black slave trade, but it was racist for European colonists to purchases his slaves.  
It is not racist for blacks to loot and burn white people’s stores, but it is racist for white people to attempt to defend their property.
Black people can use Ebonics, but it is racist for white people to use the English language.
If white people defend themselves and the accomplishments of Western civilization from attacks, they are dismissed as racists. Blacks do not encounter this problem, because white people are not permitted to criticize them.  To criticize a black person is to engage in hate speech and to commit a hate crime, just as criticizing Israel’s treatment of Palestinians is proof that you are an anti-semite. 
Only the white vote can elect Joe Biden president. If white people elect Joe Biden, it will be an act of self-destruction. Biden has promised to ignore the Second Amendment and to disarm the population.  Of course, it will only be law-abiding whites who are disarmed.  Once they are disarmed, the next looting and burning will be in white neighborhoods.  
For decades the entire purpose of education has been to destroy white confidence and to build black anger.  It has been successful.  White people will now have to fight for their lives or be cancelled." 
Paul Craig Roberts

"While speaking of the ever increasing encroachment of government into every crook and cranny of life, it used to be said in jest that 'soon they will make it illegal to breathe'. Now they have.
Gary Turpanjian

"What collectivists don’t seem to understand about 'human nature' is that a group of humans is simply a concept that refers to an interaction between two or more actual, living, breathing, independently distinct individuals. While there may be such a thing as a 'group mind' in science fiction—The Borg in Star Trek—There is no such thing as a 'group mind' for real humans.
If you live, you live; if you die you die; if you thrive or fail or feel pain or love or anger you experiences those things. Others may commiserate or empathize with you but it is still you who individually do and feel those things. Why is this so incredibly difficult for collectivists to understand? Perhaps that is what defines their own peculiar human nature, separate from all the infinite definitions of individual human natures."
Garry Reed

"Abortion, murder and infanticide are public policies in America. Once a thing becomes public policy, it is actually government sponsored. Public policy is a high-sounding term that implies the people agree and desire certain action.
Change agents invented the concept of 'public policy' to disguise authoritarianism by making it seem palatable. But before something becomes official and 'public policy,' it begins as unofficial public policy."
Bob Livingston

"You must not let a technocrat run your life. You must not let a tech bro run your life. You must not let an expert in medicine run your life.
These are people who spend a great deal of time learning how isolated systems work and sometimes earn a great deal of money and prestige because of their expertise.
Anything that might be described as an executive function in your life or in society should not be held by such people. You must not let them dictate strategy or direction.
You are the one responsible for running your life. If you need big picture suggestions from the outside world, it is to be found in fields like philosophy, theology, ethics, and praexeolgy."
Allan Stevo

"It is perfectly acceptable to offend white people.  All is permissible. The governor of Virginia has ordered the removal of a statue of Robert E. Lee from Richmond, the Virginia capital that Robert E. Lee honorably defended for three years from being looted and burned by Union invaders. Thanks to Lee, Richmond escaped Atlanta’s fate, but Lee’s statue is being taken down. It was racist of Lee to defend his state and the property and lives of those in Virginia. The truth of the matter is that it is not blacks that have been genocided, it is Southern people and their history."
Paul Craig Roberts

"What we are seeing daily played out upon our streets, television and computer screens, cell phones, and in our children’s classrooms is the death knell of the leftist notion (and I especially include the neocons in this equation) of the US as a propositional nation, a nation united not on shared ethnocultural or ethnoreligious heritage but on adherence to the singular proposition of 'all men are created equal' (of course multiculturalism would expand that to all beings regardless of race, gender, or artificial status what so ever are 'equal'). Old school paleoconservatives such as Pat Buchanan have always hated and opposed this claim or viewpoint. What we are really seeing is the end of nationalism as a central driving force or ideological engine. The transnational globalists are finally getting what they have been working for over decades, both covertly and overtly. A technocratic New World Order of digital economic and political total control in a centralized, unified, totalitarian corporatist entity, with all pervasive surveillance and coercive regimentation."
Charles Burris

"Maybe you’re thinking you should get behind somebody like Ron Paul (I didn’t say Rand Paul), should such a person materialize. That would be futile.
Here’s what would happen in the totally impossible scenario that this person was elected and tried to act like a Lee Kuan Yew or an Augusto Pinochet against the Deep State:
First, there would be a 'sit-down' with the top dogs of the Praetorian agencies and a bunch of Pentagon officers to explain the way things work.
Then, should he survive, he would be impeached by the running dogs of Congress.
Then, should he survive, whipped dog Americans would revolt at the prospect of having their doggy dishes broken.
Remember, your fellow Americans not only elected Obama, but re-elected him. Do you expect they’ll be more rational as the Greater Depression deepens? Maybe you think the police and the military will somehow help. Forget it…they’re part of the problem. They’re here to protect and serve their colleagues first, then their employer (the State), and only then the public. But the whipped dog likes to parrot: 'Thank you for your service.' Which is further proof that there’s no hope."
Doug Casey

"To be GOVERNED is to be kept in sight, inspected, spied upon, directed, law-driven, numbered, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right, nor the wisdom, nor the virtue to do so. To be GOVERNED is to be at every operation, at every transaction, noted, registered, enrolled, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorized, admonished, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished. It is, under pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be placed under contribution, trained, ransomed, exploited, monopolized, extorted, squeezed, mystified, robbed; then, at the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, despised, harassed, tracked, abused, clubbed, disarmed, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned, shot, deported, sacrificed, sold, betrayed; and, to crown all, mocked, ridiculed, outraged, dishonored. That is government; that is its justice; that is its morality."
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon,

"The system, the progressive system that already suppresses freedom in countless ways, infiltrates and penetrates our lives in countless ways, visible and opaque. Progressive poisons circulate routinely through the bloodstreams of our society. We need to take the cure. This starts with refusing to ingest any more progressive food, stopping cold turkey, and allowing the body politic and social to purge the poisons.
People like [California Governor]Newsom, smooth operators, who promise new bottles of snake oil that contain the same old poisons are to be rejected and shunned. Let them set up their soap boxes on their web sites, but ignore their invariable nonsense. Their whole picture of the 'system', the reality of it, is grossly out of whack, which is why they are purveyors of anti-freedom, not freedom. Their belief in their own power and right via government to shape and reshape people, human beings, is their basic misconception. They do not understand that freedom is at the root of the entire universe and of the human being as an individual, and that this individual freedom is fundamental to our nature as individual beings. Freedom, by its nature, implies an unknown future that cannot be controlled and shaped and forced into a fixed or set social and political vision."
Michael Rozeff

"When dealing with people who have a bad religion, in this case The State, there is no limit to their demands. As a religion the State is merciless. It has no capacity for forgiveness. It dictates. We obey or eventually we get shot.
That’s what has been substituted in the West for Christianity. And Christianity, across nearly all of its sects, has failed to contain the State or provide the means and the frameworks to reinforce constructive behavior.
Boomerville is real folks, it’s on fire right now and our political leadership has taken a knee to the mob."
Thomas Luongo

"White people are so brainwashed that they do not even know that they are targeted.  Even when it is before their eyes they cannot see it. OnMyGod, it would be racist to acknowledge reality.
There is no doubt that whites have accepted their demise. Whites acknowledge their subservience to blacks  by serving as majority enforcers for punishments of whites.  It is so commonplace that it goes unnoticed. Nascar driver Kyle Larson has been fired for using the n-word.
Before the white Nascar representatives of black power will give Kyle Larson his livelihood back, he has to grovel and complete 'sensitivity training.'  
But blacks don’t have to show any sensitivity as they shout 'racist' and loot and destroy white property.
Meanwhile the police continue shooting to death more white people than black people, and no one protests."
Paul Craig Roberts

"The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants."
Albert Camus

"Whether you believe in God the Creator or evolution or something else as the explanation for the human race, progress was meant to involve the individual coming out of the group and staking his claim to a life of his own making, according to his best vision of his greatest thoughts and values.
THIS was a struggle of blood and courage and intelligence for many centuries. THIS was the journey out of the caves and the clans and the brutal leaders and the mind control imposed from the top. THIS was where each one of us “came from,” that struggle.
And now, through every foul means available, elite controllers want to turn back the clock and take each one of us into the past."
Jon Rappoport

"All U.S. wars are wars of aggression. All wars of aggression are wrong and murderous. Most all reporting by the mainstream about war and intervention are in the context of non-existent national security, protecting freedom, supporting the troops, or spreading democracy. These lies are presented openly, but what is left unsaid is what is telling. What is left out about U.S. wars is the truth. That is that these wars are brutal assaults on the innocents of other countries for the benefit of the entire military industrial complex, including U.S. banking, corporate war profiteers, and the political class. Nationalism is promoted, while the real victims of war are ignored and left out of the news."
Gary D. Barnett

"Murder a thousand people and make a fortune selling their organs: You’re a monster.
Murder the same number of people for the same amount of money by selling the weapons used to murder them after lobbying for needless military interventionism: You’re a businessman."
Caitlin Johnstone

"Americans live in anarchy everyday and should embrace their inner voluntaryist.  If you are a government supremacist, you are neither an abolitionist nor anti-slavery.  The choice is yours and the belief in limited government is no more viable than believing in ghosts or the Loch Ness monster.  Unicorns are a fiction and government thinks and knows that freedom is a fiction.  Speak truth to tyranny and let government know that you know better and that the emperor has no clothes."
Bill Buppert

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"We are now experiencing the consequences of decades of teaching black Americans to hate white Americans and of teaching white Americans to accept guilt for the black slave trade that originated in the black Kingdom of Dahomey in 1600.  A black labor force was inherited by the United States and by the Confederate States of America. It was the gift of history.  But in the history that is mistaught, the inherited institution of slavery was imposed on black people by white supremacy."
Paul Craig Roberts

"How many black churches have been oppressed by authoritarians under recent orders to close or to limit their Christian services?
Thousands? Tens of thousands? Too many, by my count.
If the murder of multiple black men by police, at random intervals over the course of a few years, is systemic racism worthy of revolt and a re-do of government, then how about the forced simultaneous closure of every single black church in the country? …
OK, maybe you could argue that more white churches than black churches were closed. But hold on. … The same argument exists that more white people than black people are unjustifiably murdered by armed government workers. …"
Anonymous

"While endless media op-eds tell us how dangerous a phrase like 'all lives matter' is, it is not a concern for the majority of people. A vocal minority has hijacked a cultural moment and is now using it to simply spread divisiveness by labeling everything from television shows to phrases they don’t like as racist. This progresses no serious conversation and merely opens the door for easy villainization, a favorite hobby of virtue signalers looking to 'belong' and ‘be part of’ what they see as a definitive movement in history. 
But a moment cannot be definitive if we, as a culture, are putting too much stock in what the loudest and most extreme among us say. And as this movement to bully people into toeing the line and only expressing themselves through approved language like 'black lives matter' grows — but we see it does not match up to practical reality — it’s time we reevaluate whose outrage exactly we should be listening to."
Zachary Leeman

"Because the State can use violence to suppress people’s choices but it cannot suppress their desire to make that choice. Remove the violence and the behavior returns.
But at some point there is a limit to what level of violence and pettiness by the State the people will endure. And when that limit is reached, it explodes.
Place that explosion in the context of cultural degradation and ennui where basic definitions of culture, economics and biology are inverted and you get what’s happening across America and Europe right now.
Seattle is getting a first hand lesson on how this plays out."
Thomas Luongo

"The socialists never propose market solutions because they think profits are bad and employers exploit workers. BLM, if it has not already, is going to come out for some sort of community control over police or policing, and this will be a socialist structure. It will lead to internal divisions and dissension. It will lead to a deterioration in services. If BLM intends to build up its own police, it will discover that there are significant costs of training that it has taken for granted, as well as a wide range of other costs. What it wants is for someone else to foot the bills."
Michael Rozeff

"The fact is that there is no institutional or systemic discrimination against black people in American society. Contrary to the assertions we hear today, in the last half a century America has gone into untold lengths to support and assist its black community. During this time, American society has launched countless programs and initiatives and spent hundreds of billions of dollars aimed specifically at uplifting the African American demographic. The support that the black community receives from American society comes in every form conceivable: legislative, financial, educational, commercial, human, material."
Vasko Kohlmayer

"The vast majority of violence visited on the black community is committed by black people. There are virtually no marches for these invisible victims, no public silences, no heartfelt letters from the UC regents, deans, and departmental heads. The message is clear: Black lives only matter when whites take them. Black violence is expected and insoluble, while white violence requires explanation and demands solution. Please look into your hearts and see how monstrously bigoted this formulation truly is."
Anonymous history professor at UC Berkeley

"Liberals will fight for the right of Marxist radicals to burn the American flag to show their hatred of it but cannot tolerate working folks flying the battle flag of the Confederacy to show their love of it."
Pat Buchanan

"When the rioting and looting in US cities was at its height, Bernie Sanders declared that business owners have been 'looting' the poor for forty years which would seem to be a backhanded endorsement of the violence and theft taking place, or, at the very least, a justification for the looting and burning. Again, because Sanders and his followers view business activity as violent theft and government action as either peaceful or promoting peace, there would be no reason in their minds to have police protect private property or its owners, since 'property is theft.' (One doubts that Sanders believes that about his own three houses and his other personal property, but socialists have lived with that disconnect for years and always get away with it)."
William Anderson

"Federal troops clearing out six city blocks of the Woke Taliban is exactly what the Woke Taliban want. These are domestic terrorists, not criminals. Criminals would flee. Terrorists will want to make a statement, and the arrival of federal troops will certainly result in catastrophe, in martyrs, in dead and wounded innocents, in everything being lit on fire.
Besides, this is a local problem, a local crime… And I can’t even begin to articulate how little I care about what happens in Seattle, or in any Democrat-run city…
You get what you vote for, and the idiots of Seattle have been voting Democrat, by a wide margin, for decades. In 2017, they made this lunatic Jenny Durkan their mayor, and now the citizens of Seattle are reaping that whirlwind — and that’s not Trump’s problem, that’s not my problem, that’s not your problem… Let Seattle voters lie in the bed they made, and anyone who needs me will find me over here eating caramel corn, giggling, and enjoying life in Leavemethefuckaloneistan."
John Nolte

"This is what Whites have done for many years now; apologize for any 'insensitive' remarks. But only if they are made about Black people. And that is the crux of the problem here; these public acts of contrition never work. In most cases, the hapless 'racist' is still fired. They are still considered 'racist.' So why do they continue to apologize for expressing their constitutional right to free speech?"
Donald Jeffries

"So far, as near as I can tell, the great virus hysteria has gone from being the next black plague to basically a big nothing. It’s not nearly as bad as the Asian Flu from the 50s or the Hong Kong Flu from the 60s. Forget about the Spanish Flu—there’s no comparison whatsoever. The main effect of COVID isn’t medical; it’s the hysteria that’s destroyed the economy. And political actions are even more insane than those after 9/11."
Doug Casey

"Facts no longer matter in the US or in the Western World. Factual accounts that do not satisfy the woke emotions are dismissed as racist or sexist or some other form of sin. In other words, truth in America has lost its power.  It is no longer possible to combat destructive ideologies with truth. You can test this yourself. Try to convince CNN, New York Times, NPR, a white liberal professor, a member of Antifa, or a black protester that George Floyd killed himself by over-dosing on a dangerous opioid.  They will dismiss the toxicology report as a coverup of racist police violence against blacks, and they will dismiss you as a racist white supremacist."  
Paul Craig Roberts

"The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness…”
The apparent endemicity of bad research behaviour is alarming. In their quest for telling a compelling story, scientists too often sculpt data to fit their preferred theory of the world. Or they retrofit hypotheses to fit their data. Journal editors deserve their fair share of criticism too. We aid and abet the worst behaviours. Our acquiescence to the impact factor fuels an unhealthy competition to win a place in a select few journals. Our love of 'significance' pollutes the literature with many a statistical fairy-tale…Journals are not the only miscreants. Universities are in a perpetual struggle for money and talent…"
Dr. Richard Horton

"China Derangement Syndrome (CDS) is a terrible affliction where someone who has overdosed on mainstream narratives suddenly starts believing a nation on the other side of the planet is a very big problem that 'we' need to 'do something about'.
Trump supporters are exactly as moronic, brainwashed and hysterical about China as Democrats are about Russia. They’ve forever forfeited all legitimacy in criticizing Russiagate."
Caitlin Johnstone

"In the distant past, fooling the general population was a more difficult task. People for the most part were more skeptical than today, and could not be bombarded with lies and trickery via a controlling media source. While politicians have always been suspect throughout every period of history, scrutiny of their behavior and policy decisions was more evident in the past than in current times. This is of course due to modern technology and the ability to reach all immediately, but it is also partially due to the massive growth of the welfare state, where most everyone believes they can benefit at the expense of their neighbor, and will ignore the truth for self-greed and agenda consideration. This dynamic has caused a tremendous difference in the attitudes of the masses, which naturally seek the easiest way to gain favor, regardless of the underlying consequences. This has happened because of laziness and apathy, but more importantly to a more recent lack of morality and a collective lessening of intellect."
Gary D. Barnett

"Private medicine is profit driven, which makes it susceptible to fraud.  In long ago days fraud was restrained by the moral character of doctors and the respect for truth of researchers.  These restraints, never perfect, have eroded as greed turned everything, integrity itself, into a commodity that is bought and sold."
Paul Craig Roberts

"Progressivism is the virus. It is the cause. It is not the cure. Its modifying of our semi-capitalistic system means making further attempts to eliminate the last vestiges of free, competitive and open markets and the uncontrolled and untrammeled pursuit of happiness by each of us. The result aimed at is actually the further enhanced peonage of most Americans under the controlling chains of the reigning wielders of political power, educational content and media propaganda. Absolutely no re-imagining from democratic socialists, from social democrats, from progressives, from socialists, and all such fountains of anti-capitalism will bring about the nirvana of a society that matches their blueprint. They are unable to identify their own responsibility for the problems our society faces. They revere the very policies and institutions that are so oppressive and so damaging. Their re-imagining is nothing but more of the same and worse."
Michael Rozeff

"Society is a collective concept and nothing else; it is a convenience for designating a number of people. So, too, is family or crowd or gang, or any other name we give to an agglomeration of persons. Society . . . is not an extra 'person'; if the census totals a hundred million, that’s all there are, not one more, for there cannot be any accretion to Society except by procreation. The concept of Society as a metaphysical person falls flat when we observe that Society disappears when the component parts disperse; as in the case of a 'ghost town' or of a civilization we learn about by the artifacts they left behind. When the individuals disappear so does the whole. The whole has no separate existence. Using the collective noun with a singular verb leads us into a trap of the imagination; we are prone to personalize the collectivity and to think of it as having a body and a psyche of its own."
Frank Chodorov

"In the real world, wealth is produced by someone and belongs to somebody. We’re not ants or bees working for the hive. The whole idea of a GDP just allows the 'authorities' to bamboozle people into believing they can actually control 'the economy,' as if it were some giant machine.
The officials pretend to be the Wizard of Oz, and Boobus americanus is trained to think they’re omniscient. Thus whenever the rate of growth slips 'too low,' officials are expected to give 'the economy' a suitable push. Conversely, whenever 'the economy' is growing too fast, the officials are supposed to step in to 'cool' it.
It’s all an embarrassing and destructive charade."
Doug Casey

"I have no need to choose between the dying liberal order and the Mango Emperor, as I have no need to choose between Lucifer and Baphomet. Both major parties in the US are mere complements of one another. One, the Democrats is nothing more than an asylum structure to house the Bolsheviks while the scolding and invertebrate Mensheviks of the Grand Old Politburo are embarrassed that the gibbering of the Democrats says out loud what they are thinking.
Both parties want nothing more than your chained obedience."
Bill Buppert

"If you want to know where the notion came from that the constitution can (and should) be suspended whenever there is an 'emergency,' look no farther than the Lincoln Memorial and who and what it represents.  If you want to know why governors, mayors, and other pipsqueak local politicians think that they will actually be praised by acting like dictatorial tyrants, shutting down businesses on a whim, destroying the livelihoods of their citizens, and enforcing their petty 'orders' with heavily-armed and militarized local police, look no farther than the symbolic meaning of the Lincoln Memorial and the man who it has helped to deify.  Even foreign despots invoke 'Saint Lincoln' to 'justify' their tyranny.  When the former Pakistani dictator Pervez Musharraf imposed martial law on his country he 'justified' it by saying that Abraham Lincoln had done the same thing in his day."
Tom Di Lorenzo

"We are guaranteed certain freedoms by way of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights on one hand and brainwashed into servitude on the other. How else would you describe the inured who claim to love democracy and their 'freedom' and yet advocate for their own slavery by demanding government authority in all parts of their lives?
Such a thought process creates what I call a 'double-minded' person. By definition, double-mindedness is the mental state of believing or attempting to believe two opposing thoughts at the same time.
Double-mindedness is a recognizable psychological phenomenon and it is used to neutralize human thought and action. It is very subtle because it almost defies description. Herein lies its power to deceive and control human emotions.
There is both collective and individual double-mindedness. Almost all politicians are aware of this phenomenon and use it to deceive the electorate."
Bob Livingston

"Journalism has lost any degree of modesty about the likelihood of any comprehensive moral and political view triumphing so decisively that competing views vanish or shrink to the furthest margins of a free society. Indeed, journalism has become just personal propaganda. Once upon a time, journalism was a noble cause for it was about a practical and functional form of truth that may not be even absolute or philosophical, but it was the pursuit of the truths that impacted our society. It was once perhaps a lofty goal that began with the professional discipline of assembling and verifying facts as was the case with the legal and political professions.
But journalists, have succumbed to bias and no longer try to convey a fair and reliable account of their events. FAKE NEWS has simply become a platform for personal bias warranting no further investigation. Journalism has digressed to nothing more than standing on a soap-box at Speaker’s Corner in Hyde Park, London. Journalists are no longer transparent about sources or methods so audiences can make their own assessment of the information."
Martin Armstrong

"Without popular fear, no government could endure more than twenty-four hours. The warrior element of government puts the people in fear for their lives, and the priestly element puts them in fear for their eternal souls. These two fears compose a powerful compound—sufficient to prop up governments everywhere on earth for several millennia."
Robert Higgs

"All the civilizations we know have been created and directed by small intellectual aristocracies, never by people in the mass. The power of crowds is only to destroy.
We see, then, that the disappearance of the conscious personality, the predominance of the unconscious personality, the turning by means of suggestion and contagion of feelings and ideas in an identical direction, the tendency to immediately transform the suggested ideas into acts; these, we see, are the principal characteristics of the individual forming part of a crowd. He is no longer himself, but has become an automaton who has ceased to be guided by his will."
Gustave Le Bon

"Today we have the subordination of church to state.  One recalls the exchange between the Jewish priests and Pilate regarding Jesus’ fate.  Pilate asked: 'Shall I crucify your king?' and in reply, the priests shouted 'We have no king but Caesar.'  Sounds like a typical Sunday morning in America."
Daniel Ajamian

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"For a long time now, the fake, SOY BOY conservative movement has lacked a spine in confronting the left. 'Let’s compromise on this, and that…,' they said. 'Let’s not call out ANTIFA,' they said, 'for if we do, the lovely Democrats will call us out.' Lo and behold, look where we are now. If the conservative movement and the RepubliCONS ever posed a slight opposition to the left, all of them turned their badges in this week.
Conservatives don’t give a damn about promoting an ideology that reinforces liberty anymore. It’s all about clinging on to power as the left dictates the cultural landscape – at the expense of the rest of us."
Atilla Mert Sulker

"Like most of the rest of you I’ve spent some time in the past two weeks watching the Democratic National Convention on the TV news.  Frankly, I’m getting a little bored with the party platform on display: arson, looting, terrorism, burning police cars, throwing Molotov cocktails at the police, throwing bottles filled with cement at police, throwing hammers through residential windows in New York City, murdering police officers, calls for eliminating all police by rioters and violent criminals and all of the top Democrats, spray painting ugly graffiti all over public and private buildings in dozens of cities, calling anyone who criticizes any of this a racist, setting fire to churches, beating people senseless for sporting an American flag, streets filled with foul-mouthed raving lunatics, and worse.  I'm over it.  I’m switching to watching reruns of Law and Order and Criminal Minds.  I hope the Republicans are more creative with their convention this summer."
Tom DiLorenzo

"Now we know that it is suddenly OK to not anti-social distance if you are performing any activity ranging from peaceful protest to wanton mayhem and destruction, but it is not OK to anti-social distance for any other activity.  Like going to work, seeing your friends, having a meal out, going to church, whatever.
Now we know that it doesn’t matter if you prefer democrats or republicans, we know that they all play the same game for the same team – them (and those who want to control and own you) against you.
How much more obvious do you need them to make this for you?"
Bionic Mosquito

"It’s supreme irony that the government supremacists in Antifa, BLM and their Democrat party sugar daddies are calling for defunding the police. The very entity that makes all government shitholes enforceable under their inhuman rule."
Bill Buppert

"If the COVID Plandemic can serve any purpose, it’s to pull the mask off of our largely anonymous leaders at the state and local levels. Americans can see clearly just how incompetent and corrupt those who rule our lives with their laws, mandates, and restrictions, actually are. We are responsible for their salaries, much as we are paying police and firefighters. Most of them are making a lot more than the taxpayers who pay them. And virtually all have much better benefits and more lucrative pensions."
Donald Jeffries

"Police use of excessive force is not limited to black Americans.  According to official data, police brutalize and kill more white Americans than black Americans.  Most people don’t know this, because whites do not protest and riot when police use excessive force against white people.  There are two reasons for the lack of white protest. One is that white people give the police the benefit of the doubt, and the other is that there is concern that coming down hard on police will make it harder for police to deter crime and protect life and property. We are seeing the truth of this concern in the current destruction of property permitted by public authorities afraid of being labeled 'racist' if they use force against the violence."
Paul Craig Roberts

"The economy has been purposely destroyed in order to usher in a new world system. This economic destruction has made the citizenry even more dependent, and this alone will allow for much additional control. That control has already begun, and propaganda used to sway the public is in high gear, with calls for total surveillance, tracking, mandated behavior concerning distancing and masks, control of all travel, immunity passports (papers), and control of all business. Most small and medium sized businesses have been nearly eliminated, so now the big players that control economies have little or no competition, allowing them in the future to control most all goods and services. Food production and distribution have been decimated, setting the stage for GMO food companies to not only prosper and profit, but to take over all natural agriculture, leaving those that are not self-sufficient to depend on tainted and poisonous food supplies."
Gary D. Barnett

"This COVID nonsense is all about control. The fact that 100,000 people have died as a percent of the population is 0.0003%. The worst flu season in recent years was 2017-2018 where there were over 48.8 million illnesses, more than 22.7 million medical visits, 959,000 hospitalizations, and 79,400 deaths. We did not have social distancing, shut down all sports, plays, theme parks, and art theatre, nor did we destroy the economy. None of the mainstream press has even dared to question if what has taken place was an over-reaction."
Martin Armstrong

"The first Reconstruction had to be closed down because its excesses were giving rise to a guerrilla movement in the invaded and occupied South.  The second Reconstruction was the  integration of neighborhood schools by force rather than by persuasion.  Force required denunciation, and the white liberals enjoyed their self-righteousness as they sowed the seeds of racial hatred. In the South I grew up in there was no hate. People don’t employ people they hate to look after their children, cook their meals, run their households, and people who hate don’t perform these tasks for those they hate." 
Paul Craig Roberts

"Kneeling before God is common and spiritually sensible. Kneeling before any human being is submission to that person. That only is sensible if the person is an emissary of God, a vice regent of God. Kneeling to an idea is symbolic, but why kneel to an idea? If it’s a divine idea, it’s like kneeling before God. If it’s not a divine idea, then it’s a strictly human idea, and why kneel before anything strictly human unless one is forced to?
Whites kneeling for the forgiveness of black people is kneeling before an idea, the idea that one is guilty of some transgression. Black people are not priests. They don’t provide absolution. If one feels guilty, look to God for forgiveness, not to other human beings."
Michael Rozeff

"Britain feels so alien to me right now. Woke spoilt brats have the free run of the streets while working people are prevented by law from going to their jobs or the pub. Young people with the correct PC views can gather in public, express themselves and even tear down statues with no consequences whatsoever, while everyone else is still being sternly warned to stay at home. Correct-thinkers can gather in massive crowds, while others can’t even visit a church, or attend a football match, or have a family gathering. This is the hierarchy of political correctness in action: if you have the right views, you can do what you like; if you don’t, then you are a second-class citizen who deserves to rot in lockdown and occasionally be shamed for thoughtcrime. It’s deeply sinister. There will be a pushback soon, surely, just as there was in the Brexit referendum. That mission to 'take back control' is far from over."
Brendan O'Neill

"I predict that the functioning definition of racism will evolve eventually into any action or utterance that white pro-constitution people do, including breathing and existing.
Victim cult psychos of diversity require a boogie man to blame all their personal failures and delusions on and also to rationalize their extensive protected class privileges and entitlements by law.
Victim cult psycho lust to demonize non-protected class people is similar to communism's systematic demonization of the bourgeois class and of Christian people.
Race categorization is a recently invented Politically Correct concept to distract people from ideas of substance, including ethnic behaviors and virtuous human cultures vs degenerate human cultures."
"Fardle"

"Unfortunately, George Floyd's body has now been devoured as a sacrifice to the social justice cult. He has been turned into a morbid puppet for their benefit and entertainment. They have made his death about race politics. They have made his death a monument to their fantasy world in which 'systemic racism' and 'white privilege' is the cause of all their struggles and failures. So now, we are at an impasse.
One of the defining traits of the social justice method is that they are never satisfied. If you give them what they want they smell blood in the water. Fulfill their demands and they will draft more demands. Apologize, even when you have done nothing wrong, and they attack you with more aggression to make sure you know they own you. Once you placate these people to gain their approval, you will never be free.
The conflict is not rooted in white supremacy, the conflict is rooted in the leftist mob and its collectivist zealotry."
Brandon Smith

"Because of all the events dominating at the national level, people either are confused as to the source of their problems or are too tired from following bigger political issues to devote any further energy to local ones. This large central governing body has, in effect, created a shield that protects local politicians, the ones who have control and authority over the police departments, from any repercussions from the general public.
Because of the inability of the general public to simultaneously keep track of everything going on at the national and local levels, the unwillingness of activists to vote outside of their political tribe, and the deep pockets of police unions, the death of George Floyd is unlikely to accomplish anything beyond a few black squares decorating Twitter and a Wikipedia page that will be rarely visited a year from now. In the meantime, the political leadership will gleefully use the event to cement a few more spending programs and further entrench their power structure, with more incentive to keep the unrest going in the future."
Justin Murray

"Trump says that 'well run states should not be bailing out poorly run states,' he essentially is taking us back well over 100 years when states still had the right to be free and independent bound only by a few mutual interests and protections outlined in the Constitution. He seems to be advocating for a time before federal debt had ALL states beholden to the nanny state and perpetual debt.
I have been in opposition to many of the policies of the president and to be fair I have supported him often when appropriate. His statement, however, establishes the fact that, in his mind at least, states should not be tied to other states who choose to follow policies that bankrupt not only them but the federal government and thereby the other states in the form of the bailouts that inevitably will result. If we are to be intellectually honest, his logic can also be extended to the reckless management of the federal budget. After all, why should a state which is entirely capable of supporting itself, be bound to the inevitable insolvency that America is heading toward. Given the current trend of stimulus packages and bailouts, it is only a matter of time before America is also in the ranks of 'poorly run states'to use President Trump’s words."
Daniel Rice

"There are moments that define a person’s whole life. Moments in which everything they are and everything they may possibly become balance on a single decision. Life and death, hope and despair, victory and failure teeter precariously on the decision made at that moment. These are moments ungoverned by happenstance, untroubled by luck. These are the moments in which a person earns the right to live, or not."
Jonathan Maberry

"No serious sociologist any longer believes that the voice of the people expresses any divine or specially wise and lofty idea. The voice of the people expresses the mind of the people, and that mind is made up for it by the group leaders in whom it believes and by those persons who understand the manipulation of public opinion. It is composed of inherited prejudices and symbols and clichés and verbal formulas supplied to them by the leaders."
Edward Bernays

"When politicians and bureaucrats talk about democracy and public policy, they speak with a forked tongue. They want you to believe that these terms refer to personal liberty. They do not, and the politician knows that they do not. They know that they refer to the police power and enforcement of state authority over the individual. 
They are code words for government force, which is a physical force. If you fail to file and pay your income tax, you will be introduced to the police power of the government. If you fail to 'stay at home' during some government official's order, you will be educated in the uses of police power."
Bob Livingston

"Mainstream reporters and editors and publishers are well aware that telling the truth would undermine a basic institution of society.
The media are there to give credibility to society and its structures. That’s why they’re called 'major' instead of 'minor.'
When hard rains fall, the media are there with an umbrella to hold over organized society’s head. To walk away in the middle of a downpour would leave the status quo unprotected.
'Defending the Crown' is another way to put it. The King may make mistakes, he may commit heinous offenses, but he is the King, and therefore his position must remain secure.
Young journalists learn this point quickly. If in their zeal, they cross the threshold and attempt to expose a central myth, fairy tale, legend, they’re put back in their place. They absorb the message. Journalism has limits. Certain truths are silent truths."
Jon Rappoport

"The only real human right is the right to be left alone.
You don’t have a right to free housing or free medical or free education or free food or a guaranteed income. You don’t have a right to any of these things because the question is: At whose expense? You’ve got zero right to make anybody give you things or do things for you."
Doug Casey

"We have lost interest in war.  The feminization of western society can create sheep, and sheep don’t fight well.  It is no accident that the language of 'war' has become ever pervasive, by governments, corporate and religious.  There’s something compelling about the dichotomy of social clarity in a time of war, even as confusion and destruction and randomness prevail.  That mix of clarity and fog interspersed makes our adrenaline flow, and adrenaline is a drug that all the other drugs want to be when they grow up."
Karen Kwiatkowski

"The government cannot insure a whole people against every contingency. Only a people comprised of hard-working and thrifty individuals can arrange themselves by themselves so as to do their best to insure against future risks and uncertainties. The government cannot insure against their mistakes, costly as they may be, without undermining their incentives to discover better ways of doing things. The best that any government can ever do is tend to a very limited set of activities, such as justice and protection. It cannot even do these 'best' and 'limited' jobs, however. It can’t handle public health. That’s for certain. It can’t handle and shouldn’t handle public education. It has shown itself incapable of handling military defense, instead transforming protection against clear threats that may have visibly emerged into constant warfare based on false imaginary threats and hopes of re-making the world."
Michael Rozeff

"Every single one of us was born free. We have to be brainwashed to accept our enslavement because no one would willingly give up half of the fruits of their labor on their own. No one would willingly submit to working their life away for others. No one would willingly submit to theft and the murder of people they have never met."
Mac Slavo

"All empires eventually fail, and cease to exist. This one is no different, except that it will be one of the shortest empires in history. The U.S. is the world’s only current empire, and without a forced stop to this madness, it will end in financial ruin, in riots and civil unrest, in war, and with more and more bloodshed.
Yes, the American Empire will fall, but it won’t be due to outside threats. It will be due to the abandonment of falsely espoused values, of internal strife and divisiveness, of mass corruption, of political upheaval, of monetary suicide, and of collective immorality. Collectivism breeds empire and allows it to flourish, and because of the loss of individual thought, it becomes the internal disease that leads to the extermination of that empire. This is the real America, not the land of the free and home of the brave, but a collective mob of ignorant sheep awaiting the slaughter due to their own weakness and stupidity."
Gary D. Barnett

"We must never forget that we may also find meaning in life even when confronted with a hopeless situation, when facing a fate that cannot be changed. For what then matters is to bear witness to the uniquely human potential at its best, which is to transform a personal tragedy into a triumph, to turn one's predicament into a human achievement. When we are no longer able to change a situation... we are challenged to change ourselves."
Viktor Frankl

"A crisis alters the fundamental conditions of political life. Like a river suddenly swollen by the collapse of an upstream dam, the ideological current becomes bloated by the public’s fear and apprehension of impending dangers and its heightened uncertainty about future developments. Bewildered people turn to the government to resolve the situation, demanding that government officials ‘do something’ to repair the damage already done and prevent further harm."
Robert Higgs

"The wisdom of the ages has always told us that it is not government inaction that leads to a mess. The people can handle themselves just fine. It is government action that leads to a mess."
Alan Stevo

"I do feel discriminated against. But it is not a covered discrimination. I feel like my country has been stolen or that I have been kidnapped and placed in some foreign unknown place that I don’t recognize as home.  
Perhaps it has always been true, but today if you live very long you outlive your world. As your friends die off, no one remembers it correctly but you as you watch your world disappear in misrepresentations to serve present day agendas."
Paul Craig Roberts

"The finance sector is supposed to be the servant of companies that seek to create products and services that allow you and me to improve our standard of living But nowadays, finance has become the master. Many companies organize their business models around pleasing Wall Street instead of Main Street."
Dave Gonigam

"In China,we are told, there is no freedom of expression. Well, actually there is, as long as you don’t say the wrong things about the wrong things. In America we have freedom of speech. It says so in the Constitution.
Well, we have freedom of speech as long as we don’t say the wrong things about the wrong things. We all know what we can’t say and who we can’t say it about. In many places, certainly in the media where you might influence others, you can lose your job for saying things that upset blacks, Jews, feminists, homosexuals, LBGQXYZs, Hispanics, or Muslims. In the media you cannot say anything if favor of the Second Amendment, against abortion, about black crime, against the military budget or the wars. You cannot doubt accounts of such events as the Trayvon Martin adventure. On the web, sites can be and increasingly are 'deplatformed' by the social media.
But as these are not formally part of government, we have freedom of speech. See? No unelected dictator decides what we are permitted to know or say. Mark Zuckerberg does.
This is very different from China in that…in that…wait. I’ll think of something."
Fred Reed
