I've been quietly sitting with my thoughts since the horrific murder of Iryna Zarutska, the assassination of Charlie Kirk and especially the aftermath of it. I have been really trying to parse out exactly how I feel as logically as possible, really for my own sanity more than anything else. I have really been trying to organize my thoughts and feelings because these two murders and their aftermath felt new. They felt new and different for some reason. Like a line had officially been crossed and instead of grumbling and conceding more ground and making a new line, people have finally said 'enough'. I mean, maybe. It's hard to know this stuff in real time. It's always clear in hindsight and whatever happens 5 and 10 years from now, people will say 'I knew it was coming! It was so obvious!' But really being in it like this, you have to admit you really have no fucking idea what's coming.
I'm going to do this post a little bit different than usual. I'm going to short-rapid fire some opinions because it feels like I need to get this stuff out. I know most people don't come here to read this stuff but I just can't not write anything about it. We'll get back to our regular programming shortly, but if you're interested, here is what I have to say:
-I am officially OUT on 'unity' or 'lowering the temperature.' I don't know how many times we need to get hit with a stick before we realize that someone is trying to hit us with a stick.
-The celebration after the assassination was something I really had never seen before, and I'm a true millennial. I have seen and been on the internet since its inception, really. Like others my age, I had completely unrestricted access to the internet at 15/16 years old, before anyone even knew what the internet was. I have seen just about everything. Two girls one cup? Childs play. I saw the famous cartel-chainsaw-group-decapitation video (if you have no idea what I'm talking about, congratulations. But it was a video of 5 or 6 guys handcuffed to a long table and one guy with a chainsaw just agonizingly slowly, cutting off their heads. One by one, through shoulders and arms and all. The chainsaw sputters and shuts off a few times. It takes FOREVER. And you're watching the guy who's up next just sitting there with pure resignation on his face, along with gore and viscera being flung at him. It is a truly horrific video is my point here). War videos, murder, beatings, deaths, bombs, stuff you can't even imagine. I have proverbially seen it all. And even I was absolutely shocked at the utter glee with which a lot of these people celebrated with. October 7th was a peak into these people's minds but this was like looking through one of those old school, put a quarter into this funny looking telescope thing. These people are deranged and evil is a real thing.
-Charlie Kirk was a 31 year old, married man with two children under the age of 5. Everyone keeps saying he was 'far-right' but he really wasn't. Like, at all. He is to the left of me on just about every major issue. And even if he was 'far-right', does that excuse his murder?? Does half this country really want me to die? Not only that, but would they celebrate if I was a known person and got killed? It sure seems that way. Maybe I'm naive but I really did not know that. I despise shit libs, I hate the modern left and its ideology with a burning passion but I don't wish death on these people. Not even close. I saw a great meme describing this feeling which I will paraphrase: "When I say I hate liberals, I mean that I think they're dumb and wrong and goofy but I would save them from a house fire. When liberals say 'Just Be Kind!' they mean that they want me and my entire family to be murdered."
-The people that celebrated almost all did it openly and proudly with their full first and last names. They were shocked that anyone even disagreed with them, never mind that they would suffer consequences. That was one of the most unnerving parts of this whole thing. These people, largely teachers and nurses by the way, were SHOCKED that anyone else would be shocked at them for gleefully celebrating a 31 year old young father getting assassinated in front of his family, all for nothing but speech. Take a minute and think of the implications of that...
-One thing that was impossible not to notice about the ghastly celebration of Kirks murder all over social media was the stark and obvious difference between the people celebrating his death and the people who were defending him. The people celebrating were almost universally revolting. Not just physically ugly, though that was largely the case, but ugly in their souls. Dead eyes. Very few spouses or kids. Very few business owners or people who build or run anything. Lots of students, jobless adults, teachers (which is horrific, by the way. WTF is going on with academia?), nurses and 'government job' types of people. Every video I saw was a person alone and in a lot of their bios was a list of their mental problems. Like they're bragging. They pretend to hate this country or society or whatever else but they pretty clearly hate themselves. I'd say roughly 75% of the ones I saw were from a person that a toddler would be terrified at the sight of. I don't care what your politics are, gleefully celebrating the murder of a young man and father of two whose biggest crime was effectively sharing his opinions is irreversibly damaging to your soul. And we can all see it on your faces.
-Charlie Kirk was not a politician. He wasn't even a CEO. He was a guy who debated with people who disagreed with him. That's it! And the left celebrated like it was their 21st birthday party when a confused, gay, loner shot him in the neck with a fucking sniper rifle.
-Am I the only person who remembers that up until like 10 minutes ago, the whole world knew that male cross dressing is like top of the list for signs of a severely disturbed, dangerous and violent person? Are we all just pretending not to know that?
-Iryna Zarutska was the Ukrainian smoke-show who had her throat slit on a train by a black man with FOURTEEN prior arrests. Fourteen! What kind of a sick, depraved society lets loose a man like that onto its own population? And why?
-I watched the actual, raw video of her murder and the aftermath. And I have to admit, for the first time in my entire life after watching a video online, I actually cried. If you haven't seen the full video, do your soul a favor and don't watch it. It is beyond brutal. And the way the people around her act like she isn't even there. Utterly confused, she cries into her bloody hands and then falls over and dies from blood loss. No one even looked at her in the video, never mind touched her. I honestly can't even really think about it without getting emotional and angry.
-After her murder, the official Black Lives Matter X account posted a video saying 'oppressed people have the right to violence.' I looked myself, it wasn't a mistake or fake news. It's real. They really posted that and got tens of thousands of likes. Maybe even over 100k now.
-Do you understand that? Are you seeing this same shit as me? THEY WANT YOU DEAD AND THEY AREN'T EVEN HIDING IT ANYMORE.
-Unity? UNITY?! Jimmy fucking Kimmel?! I mean are you kidding?
-My view on the detestable, cringey, hacky, puppet that is Jimmy Kimmel is very similar to what Gavin Mccinnes said. Something like 'Jimmy Kimmel getting fired is bad, government pressure like that is bad and it's hypocritical of us to celebrate it. But I am a hypocrite on this. I'm glad he was fired and I want bad things to happen to him.'
-I am DONE upholding rules for people who mock the idea of rules in the first place. I refuse to be the most principled man in the mass grave. People say 'we shouldn't do this because then they'll do it back to us!' They already did! And they're going to anyway, whether we stay 'principled' or not. I mean, did the whole world forget covid? How many times did we hear 'you have freedom of speech, just not freedom of consequences'? They LAUGH at our principles! 'Mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent.'
-At a time when people are the most fed up with the two party system, libertarians have not won one single thing in my entire lifetime. If anything, they've gone backwards. What good is the 'best theory on paper' if it only ever remains on paper?
So that is sort of my thoughts on this, puked up on page in bullet form. Whether you're right or left, white or black, American or not, there is one thing I think we can all agree on. We are sick. Whatever the reason, whatever the symptoms, I don't think anyone can argue that there isn't a sickness deep in the hearts or souls or minds of the modern Western human being today. Why is that?
I think that upstream of all of this, the entire culture war, the identity politics, the race acrimony, the corruption, the perverse incentives, all of the rot is from one thing; money printing. Money is the blood that runs through the veins of our country. And since our country is so much bigger and more powerful than any other country, our blood spills over into theirs. The whole world does business with USD. And just like how getting bad blood corrupts an entire body, bad money corrupts anyone who has it.
Think about 100 years ago when we were still on the gold standard. Every single dollar in existence was backed by an equal amount of gold. It was real, hard, honest money. The only way to earn any of it was to actually earn it. You had to provide value for someone. Ever since we went off the gold standard in the 70's, that dynamic has changed. Now money can be created out of thin air. Need a loan from the bank? They just create the money right then and there with a few keystrokes. (Did you know that, by the way? When you get a loan from the bank, it isn't like they take cash from their vault and loan it to you. They just create the new loan money right there on the spot. Does that seem right to you?) A few gigantic businesses in 'key industries' got insanely greedy and stupid and are about to go bankrupt? We can't have that so let's print trillions of dollars and bail these companies out, effectively rewarding them for reckless and stupid behavior. Not only that, but also signaling to everyone else that whatever happens, the American Taxpayer won't let you go bankrupt. So leverage yourself as much as possible, take enormous unjustifiable risks and worst case, the federal government will simply steal money from the public and give it to you (that is essentially what happens when they print money out of thin air). A 'pandemic' has broken out? Quick, let's print even more trillions of dollars and this time, we'll give out 'forgivable loans' (much like the term 'quantitative easing', or 'Q.E' there's always a cheese-dick term/acronym for what it really is: creating money out of thin air. Why do you think they always have to call it something else?)
What kind of a system does that loose, 0% interest rate, money-printing dynamic produce? What kind of a person do you think that environment attracts? What sort of business people get interested and active when they hear that you no longer need to build or create or innovate to get rich, but simply need to know the right people? Or beg loudly enough? Or put yourself in the middle of deals, or create an obstacle and then sell the way around the obstacle?
'Money is the barometer of a society's virtue' - Ayn Rand.
Once these people are here, what sorts of things do they do? What do they 'build'? Who do they support in positions of power? What are their goals? Justice? Prosperity? National strength and unity? A high trust society? Please. How do you think a guy (who belongs on the other side of the planet) with fourteen arrests, a knife, no job and no train ticket gets on a train and slits the throat of the innocent White girl sitting in front if him? It's akin to the growth of the 'management class.' When you grow a company and hire more people, you have to hire people to manage those people. You then have to hire people to manage THOSE people, and on it goes. Corruption leads to more corruption like sickness leads to more sickness. A bloated bubble. We've had over 50 years of fiat bullshit. 50 years of subversion, of lies, of crooks. 50 years of money grubbing, hand rubbing men getting rich from taking, not giving. Extracting, not producing. Destroying, not creating. Not providing value but by sucking off of people who do.
What kinds of children and families do you think these men produce? What sorts of institutions arise around them? What kind of art do they like? Have you noticed how modern and 'post-modern' art is almost always bad on purpose? It's like a literal zombie bite or a vampire movie. Once you invite the Fiat Monster in, you can never get him out.
Unless, of course, you find a way to introduce new, real, hard money built for the future that has nothing to do with the federal government or the Federal Reserve. Imagine that. Built from the ground up, no CEO, no company, no nothing. Just pure, real, money, built by creators, FOR creators.
Imagine that.
