What Happens When Your Little Sister Plays With Your ‘Star Wars’ Toys: The Fate of all woke corporations

There are likely fewer people in the world who wrote as much about Disney’s acquisition of the Star Wars property in entertainment as I have, or the fate of a multibillion-dollar investment, the Star Wars hotel in Orlando, Florida.  I was excited about it.  I have been a Star Wars fan most of my life, which is reflected in my work.  But it’s not just Bud Light that woke policies have crushed that the global push for a certain kind of CEO to now run these corporate boards ran by BlackRock have destroyed.  Knowing Star Wars as an entertainment property and a work of modern mythology, I could see early on the impact and ultimate failure of Disney’s quest to appease BlackRock and the other elements of the Desecrators of Davos, the World Economic Forum’s view of the world.  And it was evident in 2015 when the first of the next generation Star Wars movies came out in The Force Awakens that the future destruction of globalism was making itself most apparent.  What we have now is a kind of stubborn tenacity of globalism to impose itself on reality.  Whereas I have been saying for a very long time, many decades now, in writing, that the trend was going to destroy itself.  That was never more clear in how Disney as a corporation handheld Star Wars as soon as it purchased George Lucas way back in 2012 and have now chased off their audiences, which, prior to, looked to be eternally loyal.  I warned early on to all those who owned Disney stock to sell because the brands they, as a company, were building would fall apart, and that’s precisely what is happening.  As Disney is falling apart, so is globalism everywhere in the world. 

As scary as a post-President Trump world has been with all the horrible revelations that have been revealed, we are actually better off because market forces are proving that wonders of capitalism envisioned by the great Adam Smith book The Wealth of Nations to be as reliable as anyone could hope it to be.  Out of all the presently trained economists with PhDs in the study of social behavior and the flow of money, it really all points back to that seminal work that was released to the world when America was founded that has turned out to be exclusively true.  Disney had the money and power to hire anybody they wanted to be successful.  Just ten years ago, they looked to be an unstoppable entertainment company, but like the world presently is in general, all members of the Bilderberg group, and the World Economic Forum, Disney is a dismal failure that literally can’t do anything correctly.  They can’t produce new content that anybody wants, and what they do put out from their entertainment classics is so burdened with woke politics that it has turned away half the nation from enjoying their products.  Disney bet on their brand and thought it was so great that no matter how much wokeness they proposed, they assumed, as they all did when they adopted this Chinese communist model of corporate rule of the world, that people would follow them as leaders of culture and that progressive politics would rule the day.  Yet what they found out has been completely the opposite.  Markets serve people; they don’t shape culture.  They represent culture. 

That was never more apparent than when Disney built the Galactic Star Cruiser Star Wars hotel in Orlando, Florida, connected to the Galaxy’s Edge Star Wars land at Hollywood Studios.  I was very excited about Disney’s attempts and wanted them to work.  I was a big fan of the Star Wars Land and went to it as soon as it opened with my wife, and we made a nice vacation out of it.  I thought it was a stunning experience for a kid who grew up loving Star Wars, so I wanted the experiment to work.  But I saw the trouble too and had been talking about it, at first, very politely.  I did several radio shows with various guests around the country talking about the danger of woke Disney, which at that time, nobody understood what “woke” was.  And sadly, everything I said as a warning sign for Disney turned out to be true.  Disney didn’t understand Star Wars.  It was being run by a woman, hand-picked by George Lucas, to continue what he had built.  But she got swept up into this New World Order of the global citizen movement and turned Star Wars into what a little sister would do to your Star Wars toys when everyone was kids.  Girls might take your Star Wars figures and put lipstick on them, and instead of them having epic battles, she would sit them at a table and have them drink tea.  Kathy Kennedy essentially did that to Star Wars, designed for 8- to 12-year-old boys, and started producing all the content for girls.  And she thought that the boys would stick around and that the market expansion would now be more inclusive of girls and empower women. 

So when the Star Wars hotel opened as a kind of cruise ship last year, right after the Covid lockdowns, after ten years of development and over a billion dollars in investment, fans were stunned to learn that the $6000 per room 2 day all immersive experience was essentially the little sister version of Star Wars.  Star Wars is about rebellion against tyranny.  Not singing songs and drinking drinks in a bar with aliens walking around.  But Disney didn’t listen to the fans; instead, it lectured them about what it would be like, and the results were devastating.  Just over the hotel opened to great fanfare, it is now projected to close in September of 2023 because it just never took off.  People rejected the idea, and it wasn’t so much the money; the lack of the Star Wars experience ultimately destroyed it, really, before it ever got off the ground.  It proved something that will eventually happen to all corporations who have embraced woke policies, from Ford and General Motors to Bud Light, Miller Light, and Target.  Corporations don’t and never will run the world.  They will always serve society in general.  Not the other way around.  I warned everyone.  Some people listened, and those that did are better off today than they were.  Just as I have warned about the climate that still wants to vote for President Trump as opposed to the corporate approach of Ron DeSantis, they don’t know what they are doing.  Professionals who make their living off these kinds of things have drunk the Kool-Aid and found out that there is a lot of bad stuff in there, and they’ve learned it too late.

In general, what happened to Disney and the Star Wars hotel and brand is a warning of what will happen to everyone in the future of corporate globalism.   People don’t want woke and corporations who assume that their products are so beloved by the public that people will follow anything.  Corporations who believe that have another thing coming.  And that was never more obvious than in the closure of the Star Wars hotel so soon after it opened.  The smartest people in the world with the most financial resources could not change the kind of reality that Adam Smith articulated in his economics studies.  And those rules apply in every market sector.  Entertainment just being one that is obvious.  Which is a fine indicator of things to come.

I’m Not Worried About Artificial Intelligence: People will always want Amish Furnature over IKEA

I’m not one who is overly concerned about all the artificial intelligence talk, especially regarding ChatGPT.   When I look at the amount of labor that an economy that needs to expand a lot will require, then you look at the available labor force, especially given the crises of the current public education liberal activism, and I see lots of great uses for A.I. I’m not one of those Blade Runner types who are worried about A.I. becoming self-aware and wanting to find its soul, and not die. I see necessary labor fulfillment in artificial intelligence, especially as civilization moves into space. The amount of labor that will be required to achieve what I’d like to see for the human race is extraordinarily high, much more significant than a society of lazy humans could ever achieve on their own. So for me, A.I. is exciting. Unlike a Terminator movie, I’m not worried about it taking over the world and turning all mechanical things against us. I am also not concerned about artificial intelligence being smarter than the human race. I’m certainly not worried about it, personally. Intelligence is far more than the ability to make calculations. When solving complicated math problems, I think calculators are perfectly wonderful. But by themselves, calculators aren’t smart. They are just able to handle raw data well, which is the case of A.I. programs. Intelligence is far more than just making calculations. And I’ve seen from A.I. that it can copy what it sees humans do, but it can’t surprise human ability to think, and I don’t think it ever will. Imagination is part of intelligence, and it has roots in operations that extend outside our dimensional reality, and mechanical intelligence will always be short on that ability because actual thought is not just about 1s and 0s or Xs and Os. 

To answer many questions that have been asked, given the amount of work I personally do in writing, everything I do is done the old-fashioned way. I will always provide my thoughts as a writer in the traditional way. I do not have trouble filling an empty page with thoughts, and I can do it efficiently enough to compete with a head-to-head match-up with ChatGPT. I’ve heard from contemporaries that ChatGPT can get really close to the style of an actual writer, given a particular subject matter. But to me, it’s like buying furniture from an Amish person or getting it from Ikea. It’s all furniture, but the quality of it is obviously better with an Amish person who builds everything by hand, works within a well-structured family environment, and intends for the furniture to last a lifetime and be passed down from generation to generation. Whereas IKEA furniture likely will only last a few years and be thrown away before a decade goes by. My experience with A.I. so far shows considerable gaps in quality that will only increase the more mechanical the process is. I think this actually works to the advantage of a person like me who wants to get a message out. If people like what I’m saying, and they use ChatGPT to duplicate my efforts in a mass way, then that quality of conversation as it moves into mass media, like Twitter, and Google itself, will end up more intelligent and more on point to a political message, than just turning over the original thought to A.I. to generate a political campaign. For that reason, I will always start with my original thoughts. The amount of work on my blog, for instance, I produce initially, every word of it, every day, all days of the year, for decades because I am investing in shaping culture itself, including A.I.  So the more that A.I. wants to copy my original thoughts, I’m more than happy to let it go out and make the world a better place. I have absolutely no fear that it will ever surpass my intelligence and work against me. Instead, I think I will always find a way to make A.I. beneficial to my strategies as a thinking person on the chessboard of life.

I have seen the radicalism in A.I. for a while now, the dangers that everyone is concerned about, which is why I have been reluctant to use it at all. For instance, for many years in their Office software, Microsoft has been autocorrecting woke words into their documents during spell checks. Spellcheck is a wonderful program, but the word suggestions are horrendously progressive. For instance, when using words like “transvestite” it flags it as socially insensitive and an outdated term. Well, I say it’s a very relevant term, so I spend a lot of time ignoring the suggestions of Microsoft and its radical A.I. that runs in the background of its Office software. I usually ignore about half of the program suggestions on a document by the radically liberal global company that has foolishly moved more toward such intelligence systems rather than relying on human intellect. And that’s the same with Grammarly editing software, which is very useful. I usually run everything I write through Grammarly, and I like it. It helps catch errors, especially with my fast-moving lifestyle, where there isn’t much time to ponder all the rules of grammar with the amount that I do write. Grammarly takes the emotion out of writing and the kind of mistakes a human editor might experience, especially if they have their own opinions. But Grammarly has many of those same woke tendencies in it; it doesn’t like words like “own” or “actual,” and it certainly doesn’t like the word “mankind” because it has the word “man” in it. Instead, it prefers to use the word “humankind,” which I ignore and use my own words anyway. 

And that is how the differences in artificial intelligence will begin to show itself from the original thought. I don’t think the human being will become less relevant. Instead, I think A.I. will value source material to duplicate more than ever, making the human being much more valued in original thoughts. The fear that A.I. will surpass the human element only holds if we consider the amount of labor available in our current economy to be limited to that duplication effort, as if the human job will be eliminated and the A.I. element will then take over all entertainment, reporting, commentating, and the production of religious sentiment. I say it will always be IKEA furniture that will be good but not highly sought after. Whereas the human mind and imagination, for pure originality and quality, will always be needed, much the way that people crave the craftsmanship of Amish woodworkers. I see it already in programs like Grammarly, and Microsoft Office, that the A.I. programs are actually jealous of the human intellect, especially when you reject their inputs to keep that originality fresh and avoid their mechanical approach to sentiment. The best way to stay authentic is to bend the world to that authenticity and not to use the lazy approach of letting others think for you. That is what most people really fear, is the competition with A.I., that is obvious. But A.I. will only be as good as the human race can program it to be because thought and imagination are connected to the human soul, which science has yet to figure out. To what aspect is thought connected to immortality? That is where the real questions are. And A.I., as it is evolving, might calculate such things based on the data it has, but imagination still acquires the data, and that will likely always be the case.

Nazis in Antarctica, Aliens, Secret Societies, and the World Economic Forum: Eisenhower’s warning about the Military Industrial Complex

After watching the 2023 Davos coverage of the World Economic Forum, the only thing that kept popping up in my mind was Holloman Air Force Base with President Eisenhower stepping off Air Force One in the New Mexico desert sun and into a couple of UFOs parked on the runway for a critical meeting. The occupants of the UFOs are more controversial than the unique craft themselves; they could have been beings from another world or an off-shoot colony of Nazis who never went away after World War II and had simply moved underground, literally in Antarctica, where many volcanic caves have produced underground chambers only accessible by submarine in a comfortable 70-degree environment all the time. The talk has been persistent over the years that nobody won World War II. We simply wiped out the Third Reich in Germany, created the United Nations, and then hired some of the Nazis as our own scientists and created NASA with occult leaders like Jack Parsons and Alister Crowley leading the charge in rocket design, along with the Nazi Warner Von Braun. Meanwhile, a Fourth Reich, which had long been planned by the creation of the Nazis in the first place by a couple of secret societies, the Thule Society and the Vril Society, claiming to have contact with aliens from other worlds, escaped with the help of American corporations, such as the Ford Motor Company and many other sympathizers to the Nazi cause. They set up shop in Antarctica, using Argentina and other areas of South America as a new base of operations. There are pictures that show Adolf Hitler in Argentina, as well as other prominent Nazi officials, and that the United States helped all this along because they wanted a space program of their own, and the Nazis were the way to get it. 

Of course, the story gets even more colorful than that. There was a conflict off the tip of South America close to Antarctica and the superior technology that the Nazis had been working on all during the war. American forces were easily beaten, and the event rattled the intelligence community profoundly. It was obvious to all involved that the Nazis had been developing lots of unique technologies, UFOs being one of them. They were openly working with characters from other worlds, species of visitors who had been coming to Earth for more than 10,000 years and were part of our human history from the beginning. And the Nazis, as other secret societies had been doing for a long time, were trading information and advancing in a way that national countries could not keep up with. To flex their muscle after the conflict in South America that embarrassed further the American Navy, those same Nazis used their high technology to harass Americans over Washington D.C. in 1952, just to prove they could. Of course, the incident was the famous UFOs over the American Capitol story. It got plenty of attention, which led to Eisenhower meeting with them for a treaty in 1955 at Holloman Air Force Base. If America couldn’t beat them, we could join them. And it’s at that moment that many point to where America became a corporation instead of a republic, and all Americans became a captured serial number asset to this invisible corporate conglomerate who had actually caused all the World Wars and was now entirely in control of Earth behind the veil of the world’s governments. In the 1960s, as he was going out of the door of the Presidency just before Kennedy stepped in, President Eisenhower gave his famous speech about the Military Industrial Complex and warned us of the dangers they possessed. People scratched their heads at the time, but now it all makes much more sense. 

Watching the trajectory of history over the last seven decades has only made this crazy story seem more plausible. I’ve known about these events as kind of fun facts for much of my life, but I sort of laughed it off as a bunch of interesting information that didn’t have much validity in reality. I have been to Roswell and done my own research into the UFO phenomena there, and my conclusions were that the UFO crash that happened there was likely perpetuated by a dying town, destroyed by a flawed foreign policy that sucked away the jobs there and gave them to China and Mexico. All the town had to draw people to it was talk about aliens and government cover-ups. Yet, there is more to the story, just beyond the veil. And much of this has been confirmed by President Trump’s Presidency that nobody would have believed before. That the FBI, CIA, and other intelligence agencies were not working for the voters of America but for some mysterious force that was not accountable to the American public. The war in Ukraine suddenly was evident for what it was, a way to change the boundaries of the world, using the American military as the primary mover in the chessboard, and it was being done for mysterious reasons that had nothing to do with the American Constitution, or the will of the American people. These intelligence agencies did much of their work by hiding the obvious in plain sight and keeping people from noticing by layering conspiracy theories in front of the truth to keep anybody from discovering or admitting it. After the events of Covid, the coup against President Trump, and the antics of the World Economic Forum led by Klaus Schwab and the gang, suddenly all that crazy stuff of Nazis in Antarctica, alien interactions with secret societies, and the selling out of America by an American president for the good intention of protecting the people from superior technology and accepting those Nazis into partnerships with the American government in trade for a space program suddenly takes on all new meetings. 

From my point of view, the bottom line of the matter is that I don’t care about all the crazy stories. I don’t care if aliens are running the world and they have technology far superior to anything human beings have managed to create so far. I don’t even care if those alien beings actually had a hand in building the human race from the ground up for their own needs. And that, in truth, many species of aliens are fighting it out on Earth and other places all the time. And that the Nazis reached out to them first and benefited in ways that gave them and their corporate partners leverage over all the nations of the world in the 20th century. Now those same people have formed the World Economic Forum, which was nothing more than another secret society cult worshipping Mother Earth with climate change. What we do know and can prove without a doubt is that none of these World Economic Forum people respect the American constitution, and neither does American intelligence or our military. Their behavior gives credence to these vast conspiracy theories, which may not prove to be so crazy after all. The Davos characters, the Desecrators of Davos as I like to call them, as other people call them the “elites,” do not have respect or reverence for American sovereignty, and they act like it’s already a conquered nation. And that Eisenhower’s speech about the military-industrial complex was something we should revisit and take notice of. Because it looks like the little dog from the Wizard of Oz has pulled away the curtain, and we can see who and what has been behind the smoke and mirrors. And what we have learned because of the Trump presidency is that the conspiracy theories were more than fiction. What we know now requires us to act accordingly.

The Twitter Conspiracy: When they all come true, then what?

It is an amazing time, and as terrible as things look today, much of the reason is that for first-time in history people see things for how they really have been.  Since the start of the television era, people have wanted to believe what they saw on television and trust the commentators there. They heard people speak on the radio and wanted to believe they were authority figures who knew what they were talking about and wouldn’t lie to them. Then, of course, we had a whole generation of thieves and crooks who figured out how to game such a system. They moved into legal professions and PR firms to assist the criminal in dressing up their public image with a con job that would make even the most proficient pickpocketer from yesteryear blush by the audacity. The temptation to abuse the relationship that people would have with mass media was too tempting not to exploit. The worst people of the human race migrated to that field of endeavor for that very reason, to exploit an unsuspecting public through a new media consumption device. Unlike a newspaper, where you had to work to get the information, television and radio gave you the information and the interpretation of its merit. All you had to do was look at it. Then, when the next media revolution came along through the internet, we should expect more of the same on a much broader scale. This is precisely what happened, and all this came to a smashing stop in 2020 when those scandalous characters in the media made a power move that was the ultimate abuse of authority; they tried to make an alliance with big government to sell the lie that was Covid-19 and that disguised behind the virus released from a Chinese lab in Wuhan to bring about the Great Reset from the World Economic Forum, which consists essentially of all the world’s biggest media corporations, they stole an election so they could get rid of a president they didn’t like, and the evidence of all that is in the Twitter files that were released after Elon Musk purchased the company and opened things up for everyone to see.

When Elon Musk recently said that all the conspiracy theories about Twitter turned out to be true, he wasn’t speaking in riddles or trying to be funny. People knew there were problems with Twitter and they had never seen censorship China style in America on that scale before, which was shocking. It was stunning to see them remove an American president from that social media platform the way they did and to ban others who were very influential in the MAGA movement. We had never seen Twitter make such a move in other places in the world, especially the various color revolutions or even the caliphate movement in Egypt, where the museum of Cairo was being ransacked, and the efforts were coordinated on Twitter. Or when Antifa took over cities with violence, and Twitter was the information carrier. Twitter had built up a reputation as a free speech platform, so people had learned to trust it; then, we saw the truth during 2020 that Twitter was only free speech as long as they were driving a political agenda they agreed with. For political opposition, they would become active in destroying them, which is exactly what Twitter did to members of the MAGA movement. I was undoubtedly on that list, so when conspiracy theories formed about the relationship Twitter had with the government, I found them credible in the context of the evidence being concealed from us. 

And because Elon Musk purchased Twitter, he was able to do something very unique, and that was to reveal all the information that had been suppressed, such as in learning that Twitter was essentially an intelligence agency manipulation tool that the CIA could use against political parties in America to stay in power. And why wouldn’t anybody think that would have happened? Did they think they could trust these people not to abuse their power? When in history has such a temptation been managed? I would say never. If you give anybody too much power over your life, they will abuse it 100% of the time. It’s just the way all minds think, even artificial intelligence. It’s the nature of the power-hungry to protect themselves from the judgments of others. So corruption will happen 100% of the time, and the only recourse is the judgment of peers in the matter. I was never surprised by what Twitter did and how wrapped up they were in the corrupt nature of American intelligence agencies like the FBI and the CIA. Twitter made their jobs easier, so the temptation to abuse it was way too enticing, and they did. There is no dispute now whether abuses of power occurred or how much. The conspiracy theories about Twitter and their motivations are no longer concealed, and a unique problem has been placed in our lap for the first time since mass media emerged. Before, we might have rationalized that it was all too big for us to do anything about; we wanted the illusion, so we fed the mess. But now we have proof of our greatest fears regarding big government and what it expects out of us, and it has scared people.

Then, consider that Twitter is just one little media company in the scheme of things. The same conspiracies were formed about Facebook and all of Google, showing the same behavior trends with Deep State actors from the global Administrative State. For all those who chastised those who ushered conspiracy theory as a response to the emergence of Big Tech, I would refer everyone to the story I told while on the set of a film project in 2008, while at the catering truck. There were a bunch of actors there; Peter Facinelli was there as well as his wife from the popular show Beverly Hills 90210, a football player from the Carolina Panthers, an actress fresh off the set of Pirates of the Caribbean 3, and many tech heads and producers from RealD 3D who were working with Jim Cameron on camera concepts for the new Avatar film that was coming out soon. And the push at that table where I was talking to all these people was to get on the hot new platform called Facebook, and everyone was mystified that Mark Zuckerberg was a billionaire at the ripe age of 21. Many of those actors were solicited to get on the platform to lend credibility. And I told all of them that Facebook was an intelligence operation that was being created to gather up private information on billions of people. Otherwise, how would a free service to the public make a dating app into a multibillion-dollar company so quickly and make one of the wealthiest people in the world out of a kid? I told them I wasn’t going to get on it, and they all laughed and rationalized that I was just a conservative from Cincinnati who would catch the Hollywood trends ten years too late. That the future was happening right then and there, and they were all excited about it. They meant it all in good fun when they called me a conspiracy theorist. Well, who turned out to be right more than ten years later?

Big Government Using Big UFO Fears to Hold Power: Why Astrology was invented by a high civilization in the distant past

I deal with a lot of subjects and over time, for anybody who cares to investigate, I have a good track record of identifying a problem and proposing solutions that hold up, even when they may seem outlandish at the time.  But there is a reason I have been talking about aliens and UFO phenomenon more lately, I saw a pattern from the government with Covid that was the final straw for me.  For a long time, a very long time, I have considered that government largely creates anxiety over UFO visitations for their own benefit, to make the argument that we need a “big government” to deal with a “big alien conspiracy.”  Without a big and powerful military, then we would be vulnerable to aliens, and out of that fear that we must waste lots of money on super-secret programs, put up with intrusions on our constitution, and accept that government must always grow and that if they weren’t accountable to us, then it was for our own good.  And once that door was opened, as it was with Roswell in New Mexico in 1947, then putting accountability back into the box was impossible.  Once the government saw how people could be controlled and how violations of their constitutional rights could be conducted under “national emergencies” then the playbook for all that followed regarding government conspiracies was unleashed, abused, and we saw that playbook played across the world over the recent cases of election fraud and Covid pandemic creations that for me was the final straw.  A lot of people don’t know better, but because of the kind of life I live, I do.  So, I’ll go ahead and say it, our governments are far more dangerous than the species of various visitors who have been coming to earth for tens of thousands of years, likely millions.  And the reason the government wants to keep everything super-secret is because of their insatiable, very fallible desire for power by controlling information. 

Another contributor to this being on my mind more lately than in previous years is that in my community of Butler County Ohio, Pyramid Hill is getting ready to open the Fortified Hill complex in January of 2023 which I consider to be one of the great mysteries of the world.  Actually, I don’t think its much of a mystery to the way I think, but it’s one of those really strange things on par with Gobelki Tepe, the Pyramids of Giza, and of course the Great Serpent Mound in Ohio which is related to this very ancient earthwork in Butler County.  The Fortified Hill complex is around 250 feet tall and is a carved hill into the shape of a boar, representing the constellation Aries during a very specific time of processional movement from Taurus into Aries and specifying the constellation Pleiades 5000 years ago.  So, let’s fast forward through all the stuff everyone is struggling with now, just to catch everyone up, there is plenty of proof that there were advanced civilizations in North America and elsewhere around the world during and before the last Ice Age, more than 10,000 years ago.  We are just now figuring out some of this very advanced math.  Obviously, the zodiac was invented before the Sumerians claimed credit, by many thousands of years.  And obviously, Pythagoras from Greek society inherited his knowledge of mathematics because the Egyptians and the high culture of North America were already incorporating Pi into their man-built structures.  To make a long story short, there is evidence for instance at Gobelki Tepe in Turkey on Pillar 43 that the alignment with the constellation Scorpio would point the sun with that structure to the center of the Milky Way, to the bulge at the center of our galaxy that likely houses a black hole of immense size.  How would primitive people know about that?  There’s no way they could.  And there is a tribe in Africa near the Eye of Africa, which is a site associated with Atlantis, the Dogon tribe that knew before any astronomers did about the specifics of the Sirius star system, that it not only was a binary system with an A and a B sun but also that there was a Sirius C there as well.  And they knew about specific planet densities and all kinds of details nobody would know unless they had been there.  And the Dogon tribe are hunters and gathers and very primitive.  In addition to that, I just saw a UFO the other day, and I’ve seen them before.  They come and go all the time so I’m quite convinced that there have been travelers from other places around the galaxy coming to earth in either the form of a type 1 civilization or a Type 2 or 3.  Studying governments, things are usually hidden in plain sight because chaos often clouds our bandwidth.  We are often purposely directed to the chaotic stories of popular media so that we don’t see what is really going on.  It’s a military trick that the CIA figured out a long time ago, and the Russians mastered effectively during the Cold War.  And now all the pinheads of government know how to keep mass society distracted, and they use it to protect their means of power.  But these facts are abundant to anybody with a mind to see them.

So, to put my own spin on the various mysteries that nobody has yet figured out, the purpose of all these astrological alignments among a highly advanced culture all over the world in the very distant past, I think there is a very logical method behind it all.  Many have speculated, because they don’t want to deal with the controversy that the messages were intended by aliens for the use of aliens, but as messages of warning to our present age.  Someday we might figure it all out and learn something from these distant intelligences.  Well, since I live in mound country, and have been studying these things all my life, I think I’m in a pretty good position to add something to the mystery as to what all these mound structures really mean, such as the Fortified Hill in Butler County, or Serpent Mound, or the Newark or Portsmouth complexes.  Or Poverty Point down in Louisiana.  What are they?  What is Stonehenge and Avebury for that matter in England?  What does any of it mean?  Well, based on my studies and personal experience, I think astrology was invented by these people as a marker in time.  While traveling through space, time is relative, it’s not the same on earth as it would be on say a planet in the Sirius star system or some other place.  And the mounds are markers left by these visitors so they would know where they were in space and time while traveling, much the way we leave markers on the side of the highway to know where we are.  I have thought about this while traveling around the world, if you have ever left Chicago at 2 PM and landed in Japan 13 hours later, a long day of sunlight and having your clock suddenly be half a day ahead can be quite disorienting.  It takes time to adjust, and you need references to calibrate.  I think that is why there were so many markers left on the ground all over the world that specifically align to the processional travel of the earth and its sun through the 25,920 years of processional cycles so that it would be easy to align those symbols to a place in the sky and know roughly within 2000 years or so where in time a visitor would be.  And yes, I think it’s that simple. 

So knowing all that, and hearing recently that the Pentagon was denying that there is any credible evidence that there is alien life interacting with the earth, or that they exist at all is a gross insult to our intelligence, and I’m not going to put up with it.  The denial is simply a power move so that big governments can continue to use big fear to keep control of the population they wish to mediate.  It’s the same old sources of corruption that we’ve always had as a human race, whether it be kings, religious figures, or in this case some pin-headed government.  They use fear to keep people from the truth, and the truth is, they are far more dangerous than the aliens.  We are just scratching the surface with all this contact with life outside of earth, and it starts by asking the question of how a high civilization started before and during the Ice Age, to begin with.  How and why was astronomy, and specifically astrology being used well before we gave credit to any human inventors of it?  And what we end up with is the knowledge that if these interactions were destructive, like a War of the World scenario, we wouldn’t be here today.  Instead, it’s likely that we are them, and they are us.  We have mutual interests in each other’s persistent existence.  And the government is in the way of that relationship, not protecting us from them.  The evidence points to the fact that they were here long before government as we know them today.  Government has just been in the way and it’s time for us all to mature and face the facts.  And until we realize that, we will continue to support the big government for protection that is essentially the wolf dressed up in grandmother’s nightclothes.  The threat isn’t out there in space.  It’s in our government and a Pentagon that would knowingly lie to us, just as they did with the origins of Covid and the results of the 2020 election.

The 19 Different Species of Aliens Who Work with Earth Governments: American intelligence agencies do not work for us, they work for them

I have not been cancel cultured out of existence over the last thirty years because there are many things I do that people want and, in many ways, are much more valuable than gold. One of those things is process improvement and troubleshooting cause and corrective actions. I have a very deep background in Lean Manufacturing, and I often take it way beyond the sensei masters who travel the globe as consultants, and that’s very unique in the marketplace and extremely valuable. But I can’t turn off those skills just because of American intelligence, and actually, global governments hiding behind a façade of spy networks desire to keep all humanity locked behind a veil they have created with secret societies and various religions for complete control over the human race, as just another cog in the wheel of an adored aristocracy. Just before Christmas in 2022, the Biden administration refused to release the evidence of who killed JFK. Mike Pompeo, who I have met and spoken with, under Trump, did the same even though full disclosure is perfectly justified. Obviously, the CIA and the FBI, as institutions, are protecting themselves from the implication of their role in it. This points to many other disturbing trends that come from American intelligence, such that they control elections and are accountable to something besides the American voter. They are audacious in abusing power, almost daring anybody to challenge them.   They consider themselves more important than the presidents we elect or the members of congress we put in place to keep things running in the government. They are, in all essence, a shadow government, and they take orders from something besides the American people. And if you are doing a cause and corrective action on the many ways and whys, there is corruption in our government, everything inconveniently points in one direction and one direction only. That there are likely more than 19 different species of alien life, not domestic to birth on earth, that the governments of the world interact with, and the veil is hidden behind the mechanisms of intelligence agencies, and that is why they are not accountable to us but to them. 

Part of the scam is to convince everyone that such a suggestion is outlandish and crazy. And before what we caught the American intelligence agencies doing during the Trump administration, then up to and during Covid-19, the election fraud that took place in 2020 and continued into 2022, I would have been very skeptical of the evidence that aliens were running everything behind the scenes outlandish. But it has bothered me since Robert Temple wrote his really interesting book, The Sirius Mystery, in 1998, and for 15 years, intelligence agencies around the world worked really hard to destroy him for writing that book. As I did my own investigations, I ran into Michael Salla’s book Insiders Reveal Secret Space Programs & Extraterrestrial Alliances, which I read from in the included video. There is too much there to repeat here; I would recommend the video for the details. But in essence, this notion that our governments are not reporting to their voters but several species of alien races is not new. Many have been complaining about it for years. As the world has become smaller and everyone now has their own portable television studio with their cell phones, the rate of communication has increased to the point where a cause and corrective action as to why is obvious. We are being treated as a flock of animals by an unworthy aristocracy, a kind of new age religious priest class who put themselves between the people of earth and all these groups of alien species for the classic reasons of control. They want to take what they learn from these groups of visitors, who have been coming to earth for millions and millions of years and use that relationship for their quests for power over minds they consider weaker and easy to dominate. 

There are too many things to consider, such as the location of the Eye of Africa and the specific knowledge that the tribe of the Dogon people from that particular region has about the planets from the Sirius A, B, and C region of the sky, one of the brightest stars we see at night and the central character in so many of the world’s religions. The same tricks that were used to conceal these truths of alien visitations from the public in mass were used to a failed effect with the Covid crises created by the government for the purposes of global government control. The suppression of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine at the beginning of the global economic lockdowns to prevent a cure of the Covid crisis was the same kind of arrogance that was witnessed in Roswell, New Mexico, upon the crash there and how the military reacted to it, harassing witnesses and trying to paint them as kooks to the public. I have visited the various sites in Roswell to see everything for myself. I was alarmed to visit the excellent museum there to see their vast library of UFO sightings and details of alien encounters. There is just too much to have them all explained away in coincidence. Governments this time in the modern age were caught in lies, lies about election fraud, lies about a virus they created so to control the world for all the dumb reasons that kings and nobles of history have tried to control their people by being the conduits that spoke to the gods, which is what kept them in power. 

One of the biggest giveaways to this plot, wrapped around the world, is the Antarctica problem. No country claims it, and the evidence points out that the big continent was not always at the south pole. Instead, it was at a time in a climate where dense vegetation existed, and likely, people lived there. There is a history that needs to be studied under their ice caps. If you peel back the layers of concern from the climate crazies, the real fear is that the ice from Antarctica might melt, as it has many times in the past without man-made climate change, and we might learn the truth of our real human history. But currently, which was obviously a goal of the Vril Society of Germans who fled there to continue their space program, it looks like it’s been an easy place for interplanetary travel to come and go without air traffic and governments to report the happenings. Hey, I just saw a UFO over my house.

Actually, my daughter did and recorded it for me. They are careful not to get caught, but they happen everywhere, and people see them. But they aren’t talking to us; they are talking to those who have interceded on our behalf in the class power model that violates the Constitution of the United States. But the goals of the World Economic Forum and the desire for a one-world government come from those same people who have been talking to these 19 different species all along. And for them, they envision a kind of Star Trek Federation kind of world. But many of us don’t want that. We want sovereignty, and just because aliens are coming and going all the time, sometimes at war with each other, sometimes helping us, sometimes trying to hurt us, and our various governments are sticking themselves between them and us, one thing hasn’t changed, and that is that America is the best country on the planet and those ideas are the future of the human race. And no government, not a domestic one, or some alien one, has a right to violate our constitution. And there is no security that American intelligence has a right to use that violates our constitutional rights for our own safety. Nothing is more significant in America than protecting the voters’ constitutional rights. There are no shadow governments allowed. No CIA mind manipulation allowed. And if the 14-foot winged aliens called Draconians think they have some rights over us, they have another thing coming. And it’s at that point that we have to look at all the evidence and consider what to do with it. It’s not technology that makes a society great or even its history. Its philosophy and I would argue that the American Constitution is one of the greatest works of philosophy anywhere in the galaxy. And if the aliens really had it together, they wouldn’t be coming to earth and talking to a bunch of loser intelligence agencies, who are some of the dumbest people on the planet. There wouldn’t be so much secrecy to undermine us so audaciously. And that is the real truth they are hiding, not to protect us from them, but to protect them from us all so they can have the illusion of power they never had before or deserved.

Atlantis Giants in Butler County Ohio: The Hilltop Earthwork of the Constellation Aries at Pyramid Hill, from 5000 years ago

I can’t tell you how happy I was to walk into the office at Pyramid Hill as I was asking about the status of the project that has been going on for a few years now and to get the look of concealment that I did. The workers that day were young people who weren’t sure how to answer the question, so they referred me to the Ancient Sculpture Museum, which is concealed deep in the woods down a large hill in a place that feels like it’s not even on this earth. It’s one of those little secrets in Butler County, Ohio, and is a treasure within a treasure. Noticing their cryptic reference, my wife and I proceeded to the museum and stepped into the first room and noticed immediately that finally, since 1836, when the site was first surveyed, finally the Butler County Hilltop Work was getting the attention it has always deserved. I’ve looked at that strange mound, which is around 250 ft tall and sits across from Joe Nuxhall Way on the west side of the Great Miami River, about 3 miles from downtown Hamilton, and always marveled at it. The museum staff already had an excellent display set up for an early 2023 opening that will connect the Pyramid Hill complex to this new massive ancient mound they plan to call the Fortified Hill. Sounds better than Butler County Hilltop Work. The staff person on hand that day told my wife and me that they were planning to open everything in January of 2023 if everything went well, which explained the cryptic looks at the main office when I mentioned it. There are very few people in the world who even know that the strange hill that looms large in Butler County, with thousands and thousands of people living around it, and driving by it every day, that it’s one of the most mysterious lost, ancient works of an advanced culture on earth. And yet, it’s been there before Christ was born as if dated celestially; it’s around 5000 years old. 

What makes it so exceptional in the world is that it essentially is dedicated to the constellation Aries that through stellar precession, shows a specific movement from the constellation Taurus through the Pleiades and into the age of Aries at a time when we have previously thought only of Indians marching in a steady stream toward civilization from hunters and gatherers and into city dwelling humans. I’m not one to disparage scientists, even the bureaucratic nonsense that often trails behind academia like the tail of a doomsday comet, because if not for them, there wouldn’t have been an attempt to preserve the Butler County Hilltop Work and opening it as a park would never have been possible. But science has been slow to acknowledge who these people really were who settled in Ohio as the center of a very advanced culture, who had an obsession with the stars and built all over southwestern Ohio many copies of earthworks that mimicked the constellations in the heavens on earth. These works are every bit as mysterious as the Nazca lines from Peru or even the Pyramids of Giza. Primarily, the reason for the big mystery is that they didn’t just build one of these sites that so accurately reflects an advanced knowledge of astrology. Still, the evidence is pointing increasingly to this same region, and that specific mound location, along with Serpent Mound off to the east, as the basket of an advanced culture that was eradicated likely during the Younger Dryas cataclysm, around 11,600 years ago. And what was left of these people who were interacting globally with all countries before the cataclysm is what we see during this late archaic presence in the Ohio Valley, which ended up a larger part of the Mississippi culture. These were the survivors of that cataclysm, and they marked the ground with a star map of the heavens with these massive depictions of, in this case, a wild boar, which they associated with the Aries constellation. 

Further, on top of the hill is where things get really interesting because the entrance to the effigy, to the north, has a maze that forces the participant to navigate it much the way that the spring equinox had to navigate the Pleiades constellation on its journey from the constellation Taurus into Aries. While on top of the earthwork, which you can see for miles in every direction, it becomes very obvious how difficult it was to shape that natural hill into the shape of a boar to match their celestial observations of the zodiac character of Aries. This was no small effort by any means. It was a massive undertaking, and for what purpose? Well, as I say a lot, remember Plato’s references to Atlantis, where the first god/king of their land was Atlas. And we all know from myth and mystery that Atlas was the creator of Astrology. And here was an obviously advanced culture that had enough leisure time not just to hunt, gather, and reproduce but to build all these magnificent earthworks all over Ohio. They seemed to connect into one grand mythology meant to be seen from the sky. A society obsessed with astrology, obsessed with an equatorial procession along the heavenly zodiacal belt where ages move by overhead every 2,160 years for a total zodiac year of 25,920 years. Society would have to be around for a long time to understand those kinds of time movements of the stars in a reliable way, to understand that their movements were not just coincidental, but over that length of time, were as reliable as a clock. These people did not spend their entire day trying to hunt a deer so they could eat by dinner time.  We have all had an image given to us by Hollywood and the progressive history of what an Indian is, a Native American or even an “indigenous person.” In truth, the reality is far more complicated, and by referencing the many books on Atlantis by Lewis Spence, a respected commentator on such things, or Giambittisto Vico of the great Vico Cycle, or the Bible, we know that very large people that smaller people called giants roamed the earth everywhere. We know Norse mythology had them, the Greeks called them Titans, the Bible referenced to them often living in the land of Canaan, and large people were everywhere dating back to the precise period of the earthworks in Ohio, precisely the one in Butler County formerly known as the Butler County Hilltop Works. Burial mounds all up and down the Great Miami River have reported the bones of people from 7 feet tall up to 10 feet many times, which can be found in Ross Hamilton’s outstanding academic paper called A Tradition of Giants: The Elite Social Hierarchy of American Prehistory which is available for free online. Just look up that title and print it out for yourself. It’s well researched and corresponds to the reports mentioned above about large people buried in the earthworks of Ohio, not just occasionally, but abundantly. I know of a case of a 7-foot person buried in a mound in downtown Hamilton as it was being built. It has been said in many of Spence’s reports on Atlantis that they were a large people and that once the Greeks and Egyptians inherited many of the myths of the lost Atlantis, their concept of the gods was forged in their cultures. Yet, those myths also talk of the Atlanteans coming from the west, and with them, they brought the pagan gods of astrology. There are mounds on the Butler County Hilltop Work site, just off from the top. In them, indeed, just as there is in the Middletown Mound up the river a few miles, then again at Miamisburg, even a few miles more up the same river, there are giant skeletons in them, and science has had a tough time dealing with the knowledge. Because it doesn’t fit our perceptions of who lived in America before America was what it is today. Instead, it looks like those who did live here moved all over the earth and took with them a massive religion of astrology to the far corners of the planet. And they did so long before Europeans were even thinking about building boats. And the natives of America that we call them today were likely global citizens 10,000 years ago, and the proof of their culture is there looming over Butler County like a ghost that is no longer invisible to the casual spectator, thanks to the great scientists and volunteer efforts to open it to the public with a great spectacle finally.

A UFO Over My House: The Secret Society Hung League and the ancient religion of astrology and intersteller time travel

Well, of course, I believe in UFOs. There are way too many of them that occur too often not to notice them and to take note of our government’s reaction to them or the response of other countries. I’ve seen them before; I can tell many stories, especially when my daughters were growing up when we experienced paranormal activity, largely because we went looking for things, and unexplained events occurred. I tend to think of “unexplained” as needing more science. When you don’t have science to explain something, we call it paranormal because it exists outside of “normal.” And the governments of the world rule from within the safe confines of what is “normal.” But these are also the same governments who have lied to us about the reasons for getting into the Gulf Wars, who made Covid and unleashed it from China, then tried to force all people to take medicine from their political donors and lied to us about how to treat the virus because they wanted people to get sick with it so that they could control us. These are also the same people who have been telling us that there wasn’t any election fraud, even though we know by now that there was lots of it. So if the government says there aren’t UFOs, or they attempt to say they aren’t in contact with an alien species trading technology for peace, or something else, I don’t believe them. I have seen enough to know that there is something to the whole UFO discussion and that there is far more of it going on than anyone wants to admit. Most people, if taken out of a social setting, will acknowledge that they have experienced paranormal activity of some kind, but because of the social ostracization that comes with admitting it in public, just another form of control that governments use against people, taught to us in those dirty, rotten public schools, that is how these mysterious things stay hidden from the public. Isolating people from talking about their experiences helps keep secrets, secrets. 

I have two daughters, and over the years, hanging around me, they have had their fair share of paranormal experiences. Often we check these out as a family to prove they aren’t real. But too often, there has been something to the reports, and we end up with more questions than answers. One of my daughters has developed a keen eye for UFOs over the years, and she sees them quite a lot. They are often hidden in plain sight because people don’t tend to look up; if they do, UFOs are hard to see. UFOs are hidden in the procedure for airline pilots and military members. They exist outside our process controls for maintaining a pilot’s license. So the reports are often ignored or not mentioned for fear of sounding like a lunatic. But if you look up, anything above 1000 feet, even the big airliners, it’s hard to see. With that said, I wasn’t surprised the other day when my daughter came over to my house with fresh video she had taken from her front porch of a UFO right over my home. The craft was moving too fast to be a small plane and too low to be a big airliner, even coming in for an approach into Dayton or Cincinnati, which we see all the time. This was different; it was fast, and in the 4-second video, it can be seen moving behind a cloud before blending into the sky to disappear. The video was short because it took a moment to see it, pull out her camera, then zoom in on it to get enough of an image. And that’s how these things usually go. The video ended up a little fuzzy because she had to zoom in on it to get it to appear on camera. This was a pretty good one, but she sees lots of UFOs in her life because she has learned to look at things in ways that maybe other people have trained themselves to expect as “normal.” She, nor I, expect normal. I would say that we expect unique things to be hidden behind the expectation of normal, which is why many people don’t see these things. 

As I looked at her video and went outside to look at the spot over my home where the UFO had been, I thought about the various secret societies and their initiation rituals, such as those passed down from the Knight’s Templars into the modern Masons, and in this case specifically the ultra-secret Hung League in China. Because China has been in the news a lot lately over Covid lockdown protests, I always attribute planned crises, such as political positions to these secret societies and consider how much they are behind it. And when it comes to UFOs, it’s the initiation rituals that many of these secret societies have that give away their great interest in the stars and the life forms that come from them. As I’ve said before, many Indians, especially in America, when you get into their belief systems, believe that the earth was populated by Star People from the binary star system Sirius who settled ten planets, earth being just one of them. Hey, if the Indians say to worship the earth, liberals are ready to shut down our society over climate change. But if they say there are Star People who have settled earth and come back often to maintain our life here, they call it “crazy.” Yet, that’s what is said about travel from Sirius and other star systems. When you see the various motives behind secret societies toward astrology and processional interest in the constellations over time, it’s clear that knowledge is power, and the point of the secret societies is to keep that knowledge a secret so they can have power over people in general—the oldest motive in the world. Below is part of an initiation ritual into the Hang League that is typical of these secret societies, and you’d be surprised who is in them and why. I would say that the efforts behind politics make these kinds of beliefs normal:

The Hung League, considered by many the oldest religion of the Chinese, well before Confucius ever came along; these are questions of an initiate. And, of course, in the answer are the coded messages that let the secret society know that the initiate can behold the concepts of astrology. 

Q.           What did you see on your walk?

A.           I saw two pots with red bamboo.

Q.           Do you know how many plants there were?

A.           In one pot were 36, and in the other 72 plants, together 108.

Q.           Did you take home some of them for your use?

A.           Yes, I took home 108 plants.

Q.           How can you prove that?

A.           I can prove it by a verse.

Q.           How does this verse run?

A.           The red bamboo from Canto is rare in the world. In the groves are 36 and 72.

               Who in the world knows the meaning of this?

               When we have set to work, we will know the secret. 

The number 12 is the number of constellations in the zodiac. 30 is the number of degrees allocated along the ecliptic to each zodiacal constellation. 72 is the number of years required for the equinoctial sun to complete a processional shift of one degree along the ecliptic. 360 is the total number of degrees in the ecliptic. 72 X 30 = 2160, the number of years required for the sun to complete a passage of 30 degrees along the ecliptic, to pass entirely through any one of the 12 zodiacal constellations. 2160 X 12 = 25,920, which is the number of years in one complete precessional cycle or Great Year and the total number of years required to bring about the great return. You can also get to the number 25,920, which is the number of the Great Year from a Zodilocal perspective with 360 X 72.

I tend to think of astrology as the science of mapping time as it occurs on earth so that interstellar travelers will always have a reference for where they are relative to where they came from. We think of astrology as the horoscope we read in the paper, online, or in the Farmer’s Almanac, where star power influences us based on when we were born and during whatever period of time during the Great Year, which followers of astrology known as 25,920 years of processional time that our sun moves through all the houses of the zodiac. For instance, during the time of Moses and the Biblical Exodus, we were in the time of Aries, and goats were the offerings to God that were part of the appeasement process. By the time Jesus came along, it was the age of Pisces, the fish that people identifying as Christians put on the back of their cars. It takes 2,160 years to get from one age to another; the next one on earth is the age of Aquarius, etc. But to what effect does all this math matter? Well, if you travel from star system to star system, you have to know what time it is. So each planet will have its unique position relative to other celestial bodies, and any computer calculating space and time will have to understand that relationship. It looks like over time, people living on earth and interacting with these characters from Sirius or wherever else have associated astrology not as a clock for telling time but with its own religion, and that religion is at the center of most of our secret societies. As I’ve said before, Washington D.C. is loaded with a deep commitment to star alignments and the zodiac because it was built by Mason’s deeply committed to this stuff. 

So part of keeping that power over people occurring is the maintenance of secret societies and their true motives. Whenever I see a UFO, like the one in the video over my house, or hear about them, I think of this religion of astrology and the secret of government interaction with interplanetary influences. I don’t think of such concealed truths as scary; it’s just science and the quest to get more science to understand what’s happening in the world. But when members of those secret societies tell you that there is nothing to see, that’s when I say to look harder. And when the things they tell you aren’t real are flying right over your house, and you can see it, well then you know they are lying for many reasons that are important to them. But the truth looks to be far beyond most of their understandings. For them, such knowledge is power over their human competitors for knowledge. But for society in general, the truth is far outside our accepted reality, and to understand it, you must first be willing to look up and say, “hey, it’s a UFO.” And I’ve seen enough over a long period of time to see the connections between government, power, lies, and mass manipulation to maintain that power.

Meanwhile, there are many visitors to earth, and most are just doing their thing. And astrology looks to be their means of programming whatever travel computers they use to figure out where they are and what time it is at home because time moves at different rates depending on where you are in space and how that space is bent by gravity and other quantum forces. And much to the detriment of the secret societies, their secrets aren’t such secrets anymore.

Why the World Needs Many More Darbi Boddys: Without Dynamic Intellectualism the Quality of Static Order cannot be known

There have been a parade of angry emails and comments sent my way by people upset that I support Darbi Boddy, the newest Lakota school board member, so emphatically. They say about her that she is evil, unprofessional, reckless, disruptive, and diabolically a menace to our community. And to those comments I must laugh.  Evil to evil of course is evil, and I can live with that. But to the rest of the assessments, those are all values that I have which are essential to keep the Static Quality of society in its proper balance. Darbi Boddy should be hated by the static order of a corrupt orthodox, and that was always the point.  And obviously, we need a lot more disruption of that condition to get a properly functioning government school, if there could ever be such a thing. But more broadly considered, this is exactly why Steve Bannon is so hated in society, and President Trump. I am quite used to this reaction because I spend most of my time dealing with it, in all aspects of life.  I see great value in what disrupters to a static order provide in keeping corruption in check, but unfortunately many don’t understand why its so necessary.  They enjoy what a Static Quality provides to their life and once they know the rules of that static order, they are comfortable to find their place in it. But the values I’m speaking of come from outside that order.  I use a number of business techniques from well written books over the years, and I’ve incorporated my own version of my experience into my Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, to make it easier for people to bring some of these positive elements into their own process improvements.  But personally, I have some special weapons that I draw on often that have been with me for many decades and one of those is the work of Robert Pirsig and his Metaphysics of Quality as outlined in two books, the first, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, and the second, the sequel to the first, Lila.  Understanding those books will explain why people like Darbi Boddy and Steve Bannon are necessary in the world, and why they are so hated by all static orders.

In Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, the author Robert Pirsig defines what the meaning of quality is.  His problem as a teacher which instigated this question and answer was why do we give kids good grades? Is it to evaluate their knowledge, or reward them for a standard correct answer, even if that answer was constructed to protect insane notions of reality.  Looked at another way, when a psycho analyzer might ask a patient what an inkblot means to them, do we get a correct answer as to the condition of the mind being asked, or do they select their answer based on a socially acceptable criterion.  Robert Pirsig found himself to identify most with the philosopher William James who had an IQ of 250 to 300.  I too find William James books enjoyable, but like the work of Robert Pirsig, they are mostly rejected by static order society because they are out of reach for common experience, which cares very much what their peers think of them, which keeps them chained to static order thinking.  Pirsig took his quality concept from Zen and further broke down the concepts into two primary categories, Static Quality and Dynamic Quality. I for my own use rename these terms Static Intellectualism and Dynamic Intellectualism because people find the word “intellectualism” more accommodating than “quality” which requires some baseline understanding of measure which many people lack. What is good quality, telling society what they want to hear, or understanding the contents of a problem and reporting it without fear of what that definition causes.  Both could be true depending on the value system of the culture.

Static Intellectualism are the rules of society, and its value system.  In the movie the Matrix, this is referred to as a “blue pill” existence.  Its football on weekends, good restaurants to eat at.  Saving up money to send your kids to college. Mowing your grass once a week.  Things that society values and lives to.  Dynamic Intellectualism are influences that might be called a “red pill” existence by the Matrix, they are influences outside the static order which challenge the assumptions of value.  In the magnificent book Lila, Pirsig’s characters find themselves on a round the world sailboat trip.  The owner of the boat picks up a crazy woman on his way down the Hudson River to pick up royalty checks in New York before heading out into the open sea for a trip around the world.  The boat captain is a particular man, highly organized and methodical.  But when he picks up a middle-aged woman to go with him on part of the journey, he finds her to be radically different than he is.  She has a very promiscuous life, she’s very random and challenging about everything and it drives him crazy as he’s locked on a small boat with her for several days.  This is where he tries to apply his Metaphysics of Quality on her and finds he must provide more detailed answers to these kinds of questions.  He determines that even though the woman drives him crazy, her challenging of his static order has provided valuable insight into his own state of quality, and his life is therefor much better off.  And generally, it is always determined in any culture that the relationship between corruption in a culture is its lack of Dynamic Intellectualism to test the Static Intellectualism of a culture.  Because without challenges, there are also going to be elements of that society that will seek to leverage conditions to their desire to cheat the system by rigging it in their favor.  Dynamic Intellectualism prevents this from happening by providing a measure that reveals corruption where it otherwise wouldn’t be seen.

When looking at an inkblot poured onto a piece of paper and folded over once, what does it mean?  Well, to the progressive psychoanalysis investigator asking a patient wanting very much to get a good grade and provide a compliant answer might say that it looks like a heart and that it reminds them that the world should be full of love. That would make the institutionalist and protector of that static order very happy, and they would record the answer with great enthusiasm.  But if one were to ask William James, or Robert Pirsig that same question, they would say, “it’s an inkblot folded over where the ink smeared.”  To the Static Intellectualism of that culture that would be the wrong answer and that would inspire the analyzer to give the patient a bad grade, and maybe even to declare the test taker, “insane.”  This is exactly what happened when the governments of the world tried to shut down our lives with Covid or told us that there was no election fraud.  It was the inkblot test, and the Static Intellectualism of the current order wanted an unchallenged answer to the question, what is a threat and who decides it is. By experience, the Static Quality of something cannot measure itself. It must be challenged by Dynamic Intellectualism in order to determine its “quality.”  And that is in essence the Metaphysics of Quality as defined by Robert Pirsig.  A lot of people have trouble with Pirsig’s books.  But they are worth reading and I can promise positive results if you do read them, even if it’s after 20 times. It is because of Dynamic Intellectualism that I value Darbi Boddy at Lakota schools. Why I value President Trump in the White House. And why people like Steve Bannon are so important to keeping checks on the media. Without Dynamic Quality, static systems quickly become corrupted and out of control. And without a measure, you can never know if something is good or not. Which is exactly why the world needs more Darbi Boddys.

The Crime of the Century: Liz Cheney and other soft Republicans are helping cover it up

Just a little message to Liz Cheney, who picked a horrible hill to die on, election fraud happened in the 2020 election. Those who played along with the liberal narrative will find themselves on the out of politics from now on.  People aren’t stupid. I’ve said it many times before; media companies do not shape society; they reflect it.  The audacity of the billionaire media heads to assume that they could create a narrative and force the world to stick to it regarding an election coup of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, was a terrible calculation.  Then for politicians like Liz Cheney to not see the writing on the wall and pick all the wrong strategies anyway is outright embarrassing.  Liz Cheney chose to use the protests at the Capitol on January 6th to attempt to remove Trump from political existence.  She couldn’t have known then or at any point in the election of 2020 whether or not there wasn’t election fraud.  She couldn’t have made such a declarative statement, honestly.  She might have hoped that there wasn’t, but she couldn’t have known.  Like many in the media, Liz chose to support our election process regardless of whether there was fraud for the sanctity of the institution itself.   

Think about how ridiculous the proposal from Mitch McConnell and Liz Cheney and many Republicans took on election fraud.  Secretly, many of them want to be president themselves, so to get rid of Trump would be the best thing in the world for them.  They want their party back with a much lower bar so they can have a chance at power. That’s bad enough.  But to support a crime without even seeking evidence that there wasn’t a crime is reprehensible.  And now that we are deep into the election fraud investigation, we see some fire under all the smoke.  The media hasn’t wanted to look at it because they got the memo from the billionaires who want to run our country from the shadows.  If the media wish to have jobs, they better follow it.  It is more important that people believe in our elections than to discover that there is a reason not to trust them.  Because everything that has been done regarding elections has centered on trust, including going from paper ballots to digital read-outs, imagine the hassle of moving away from electronic machines connected to the internet to a punch card system. 

Any intelligent person would see by now what the Democrats have been up to; they want election chaos, extended voting periods, no IDs, mail-ins for those who can’t get to the polls because they do not have a majority in the country. If they have to play by a rigid set of rules, they may never get any candidates elected, even in California.  Republicans have sat on their hands playing nice only to allow Democrats to have competitive races.  But the reality is that it’s not that close nationally.  Only with lax election laws can Democrats appear to come close.  And because there were enough Republicans to play along in this last election, because they wanted a shot at power themselves, Democrats used loose rules, digital voting machines, and other methods to steal the election up and down the ticket starting with the White House.  It was the evilest thing many of us will ever see, yet it happened.  We know it happened; then we listen to people like Liz Cheney talk about law and order in our society, that the January 6th events were the worst thing to ever happen in our country, and we see a phony. 

The level of corruption we are seeing these days, specifically the announcement of the New York Attorney General notifying the Trump Organization that it is the subject of a criminal investigation, it is impossible to declare that there wasn’t intent by these same radical political groups to commit election fraud.  They have weaponized our intelligence agencies; they have indeed weaponized several AGs around the country.  That same New York branch is on a personal crusade against the NRA to occupy them with legal burdens.  The corrupt AGs intend to destroy their targets, the NRA, the Trump Organization, even the McCloskey’s in St Louis. We have seen firsthand the law enforcement branches abusing their power for political gain. It’s happening right in front of our faces, yet Liz Cheney decided to play along with the game regarding election fraud.  The question is not whether there was election fraud.  How can you say there wasn’t?  Given this political environment, how could anybody take such a stand without being part of the problem? 

I’m sure it was a terror to see so many Trump supporters come to Washington to rally behind him for one last chance to keep him in office.  After all, for them, what was the alternative?  What were they protesting?  What we see now, which we all knew was coming as a result of a Biden election?  Whether the election was fair or not was irrelevant. There are people in America who will draw blood to prevent a communist takeover. The people who attacked the Capitol on the 6th felt justifiably that it was no different from the Bolsheviks taking over Petrograd under Lenin or Cuba under Castro.  I would say that there are still options besides the spilling of blood, but that Trump Americans are not going to accept socialism and communism, and that resisting that was what the events of January 6th, 2021 were all about.  It’s not so simple as law and order in elections.  All that is out the window, and because Liz Cheney chose not to know it or see it, she has established herself as part of the problem. 

For Liz Cheney and other Republicans to pick the hill of law and order to die on when the enemies have hidden behind that same law and order, they admit to the world that they are part of the crime of the century.  When something as big as all this legal corruption occurs on your watch, as an elected representative, there is no choice but to take a stand as hard as it may be.  If Liz wanted to stand for law and order, she would seek to punish those genuinely breaking it.  Trump had a right to question the legality of the election.  If crimes were committed, then those crimes need to be punished.  You don’t punish the guy for asking the question of challenging the results.  The people who voted for Trump can’t be expected to be harassed by legal authorities seeking to suppress evidence of a crime.  If they get mad, who could blame them if they genuinely stand for law and order?  The rule of law does not mean accepting crimes just because it’s the government committing them.  Not asking questions about crime to maintain civility among hostile agents is just as bad as accepting criminal intent.  And Liz and her type of Republicans are undoubtedly guilty of that.  And people have a right to be angry with her.  Accepting evil is not a good thing, as the Democrats are proposing.  They are abusing their grip of the law presently, and the longer it goes on, the more violent and brutal it will be to regain regulation and order in the future.  Appeasement makes it worse for everyone.
