This War Is Getting Faker By the Day

But the killing continues.

I forgot to report on an interesting little bit of news that came out at the beginning of the week. The US eased sanctions on many “Russian” oligarchs. Large natural resource exporters are going to find that it is easier to do business with the Anal-NATO-Satanists now, which is a good thing, I think.

When it became clear that Russia was still trading with Ukraine and the EU and the US despite sending tens of thousands of men to die in the trenches of Donbass, I just about blew a gasket. But, as I soon discovered, not everyone thought that it was a big deal. Some said that Russia had to continue selling the West stuff to be able to pay for and afford the war which is a very tortured form of logic indeed. Imagine trying to make that argument about doing business with Satan Incarnate himself, Mr. Adolf Hitlerovich. Hell, I think you’d go to prison for even suggesting something like that.

Literally impossible to even consider, right? But the Anal-NATOists? No problem!

In general, if you point out that this war is fake, you still get tarred and feathered by the “good guys” on either side who are very emotionally invested in all the meta-narratives around this cull. Some say it is war for Human Rights Freedom Democracy. Others that it is for Traditional Antifa Christian Values. Both get very very cross indeed if you point out that it is business as usual.

You get the same problem with the rolling Palestine-Israel protests.

I think that Israeli agents are purposefully discrediting the pro-Palestine protestors by encouraging bad optics and anti-social behavior. The footage coming out of these campuses is nothing short of nauseating.

You could not come up with a more discrediting crew of cretins to publicly support a cause than this. It will lead to Christian and remnant-White America turning away in disgust and embracing Israel again, just in time for the election season and in time for an escalation in the next desert war.

“Gooood goood! Go git ‘em, goy!!”

But you can see how such a position is similar to my views on the Slavic civil war. I believe that there is more to the story than meets the eye, although the general outline of the meta-narrative remains the same regardless: God’s Chosen manipulating everyone else into fighting each other instead of focusing their ire on them. In that sense, my explanation for the campus protests and the war in Ukraine is virtually the same.

I think people reject this narrative because it doesn’t paint them in a flattering light and so their puffed up and fragile self-important egos can’t take it.

Because if you accept my view of things, then most of us are simply being manipulated and led by the nose over and over again by our theological betters.

My logic can then be extrapolated to explain the last century of wars and other nasty events as well.

But no one wants to learn that they and their ancestors have been outsmarted and outmaneuvered and as a result we live under an occupation globalist government.

Such a view of politics and current events and recent history isn’t really compatible with a Christian or a Conservative or a Liberal or a Libertarian or Communist or Progressivist worldview generally.

The only people who can accept such a narrative are essentially “conspiracy theorists” first and foremost, not “left” or “right” in any meaningful way, and metaphysical pessimists, of course. In other words, if a person is very concerned with thinking that he is a “winner” and better than others, he cannot accept that he has been living under a theological, economical, political and otherwise occupation.

Their mind rebels at the implied low-status of inhabiting such a reality.

Open-mindedness takes a certain level of strength of identity and emotional stability.

People who are very weak internally do not have the luxury of entertaining alarming conspiracy theories about the nature of the war or the protests or whatever the crisis du jour is. All they know is a feeling of security from standing shoulder to shoulder with their “side” like the herd animals that they are.

When in doubt — pick a side, find the herd.

I wonder how many years it took after WWI concluded before people were able to look at the war objectively and consider the possibility that it was an ill-advised bloodbath that only benefited the people that didn’t participate in the conflict, but simply financed it and egged it on.

Try to think of this as WWI if you are still on the fence. That is what I do. I am sure that the Russians then were told all sorts of nonsense about how they were fighting for great moral values and Jesus or something. Eventually, as we know, disgust over the war led to mutiny and collapse and chaos and civil war. We already had one mutiny in Russia, and I can’t help but feel that things are going to get only worse.

Of course even if we get the worst case scenario, a full-blown internal war within Russia, the same people will continue reporting that everything is fine and that only traitors entertain doubts about total anti-Anal victory within the next two months. We thought that we were discussing a war, arrayed around a map with little toy soldiers and tanks on it. But, in reality, we are in a shrink’s office, trying to figure out what internal trauma we suffer from that prevents us from understanding that the SMO was a failure and that Russia will never take Odessa, let alone try to take Slaviansk or reach the river.

Putin’s special little war is a Rorschach test for society.

And it turns out that many of us are profoundly unwell.

This inability to see anything resembling reality is reflected in just about every other issue of the day as well. Look at what happened with COVID. And then look at how easy it was to get Americans to go to war in Iraq — 93% thought Saddam had committed a nuclear bio-attack against the 7/11 in New York, or something.

If we’re talking useful heuristics here, you should always look for an opinion shared by less than 10% of the population to find something approximating the truth. So if the majority of people think that Ukraine is fighting for a Tolerance Democracy and the other significant minority think that Russia is fighting for a Traditional Values, well, you get the thing by now, I think.

I’ve been traveling and busy with other things.

Sorry for the lack of content in recent days.

But I had a good talk with Geopolitics and Empire about just how fake this war is the other day. If you are starved for content, you can listen to our chat here. I think it turned out pretty fun. Sometimes I just need to let off a good rant. If that isn’t your speed, you could, oh I don’t know, give me some money to access the paywalled zone and read the long articles there that I put so much effort into that so few people get to see.

I have noticed many times that when I take a pause from writing, my paid sub count ticks up because people start reading the paywalled material for lack of anything else to read.

This means I have an incentive to write less.

Thus, I write as much as I do as an act of love.

If only my gesture was reciprocated financially in some way.

…

Oh, I hope to have Part III of the Livcsi book review up soon.

Today was kind of a half-day in terms of effort and content.
