there's no way for them to make money from this, unless they are a surveillance tool, which is precisely what they are.

This is also true for most Google products, especially the "free" google apis, fonts, recapcha etc that are on easily more than half of all the sites on the internet.

They are "free" to the site owners, saving them development money by betraying user privacy to Google.

patrick.net has absolutely none of that shit, btw.

Gee, I guess we know who the Globalist knee jerk Satanist parrot in the room is.

How does a jewish pedophile lure kids to his van?

OK, that's pretty funny actually.

Koch Brothers.

And they removed Murray Rothbard as soon as they installed him, he wouldn't toe the line.

How can 0.2 % of world population are jewish yet has about 30 -40 % of billionairs, and tons of millionairs. Hold mostly all of media. Yes education is important but there are tons of pHDs , make good money but can only get up to millionaire.

@"KgK one" do you want a serious answer? I think this is it:

The Jewish religion is very well adapted to creating an exclusive merchant class. Summary of Judaism is something like "Follow these 613 rules and God will give you wealth and children." One of the biggest rules is against marrying outsiders.

So over about 1000 years in Eastern Europe, say 800 to 1800, by following the 613 rules, a feedback loop arose in which rich merchants would marry their daughters to Talmudic scholars, since prestige among Jews was from wealth and learning. This worked to make Jews genetically smarter on average than their neighbors. Smart Jews could support lots of children, and dumb Jews could support few or none.

For the farming class majority, it just didn't matter that much how smart you were. But for Jews, it mattered a lot. Smart merchants make money, and smart scholars marry the daughters of rich merchants.

Jews also have a strong sense of unity driven by their close genetic relations with other Jews and the sense of being persecuted and needing to rely on each other. The more they are persecuted, the more unified they are - and the more they dislike the majority. I think persecution is a kind of "vitamin" which actually strengthens Judaism if it's not too extreme: https://patrick.net/post/1346373/2022-06-26-optimal-antisemitism

So after all those centuries, you get a smart class of people who help each other rise as much as possible, because of that feeling of relatedness and feeling unity through persecution.

Similar things happened with Armenians, Parsis, and various other mercantile ethnic groups. It's interesting that the Jews never really got control over commerce in Turkey, because that niche was already occupied by the Armenians, who had their own kind of feedback loop going and are also well represented among the wealthy and well-educated. And were also persecuted.

The Parsis are really interesting to me as the endpoint of this kind of evolution. Jews are about 1.8% of the US and I think they get about 1/3 of the seats in Ivy League schools and own about 1/3 of US wealth.

But Parsis are only 0.01% (1% of 1%) of India, and yet they somehow own about 1/3 of the wealth of India. They are even more exclusive than Jews, in that you can never convert, while Jews allow conversion. And the child of a mixed marriage is never considered a Parsi, while the children of female Jews are automatically Jewish regardless of who the father is. You can go into a synagogue to visit, no problem, but you can never go into a Parsi fire temple unless you are a Parsi.

Parsis are also reputed to be very smart. The thing I can't figure out is why they never get persecuted, or how they stick together so well without persecution.

Why would Parsis get persecuted in India? There is no reason to persecute them. They live and let live. In fact, Indians hold them in high esteem. Same with the Jewish community in Mumbai.

gabbar says

Why would Parsis get persecuted in India?

Just because it's part of the pattern with all other endogamous mercantile ethnic groups.

I'm not saying the Parsis have done anything to deserve it (unless you count being very rich in a poor country). Just saying it doesn't fit the pattern with other such groups: Jews, Armenians, all the Christian minorities of the Middle East, Chinese in Malaysia, Lebanese in West Africa, Indians in Uganda...

One could argue that the Parsis were persecuted by the Muslims of Persia, which is why they left to begin with, but that was about 1000 years ago. Maybe the memory of that serves to keep them together, along with having a distinct religion.

Maybe India is just a more tolerant place in general, aside from the friction between Muslims and all others.

Lol!

Booger says

sounds about right…

Patrick says

I hear you. I doubt that there is there is a more tolerant country than India on this planet. Who likes Muslims except some nutty liberals and there are some in every country including India. Trump temporarily banning visitors from Muslims countries was one of the most patriotic acts undertaken by a US President. China set a fantastic example for other countries through the methods they used to squash Uighur Muslim shenanigans. You won't hear any other country make any squeaking protests about it.

An attack by knife-wielding men at a railway station in Kunming in south-west China has left at least 29 dead, the state news agency Xinhua says.

Another 130 people were wounded in what authorities said was a "premeditated, violent terrorist attack".

Prosecute criminals, not groups that the criminals are members of.

If 1% of whatever your FAVORITE group is that you're a part of committed crimes, and you didn't participate and objected to it, would you think it's reasonable to persecute you for what they did?

This is why black criminals like George Floyd are lauded, to indict an entire ethnic group, although they had nothing to do with it. Most people have no idea that Chauvin was innocent, but the majority of people that do know it, are white. The whole fiasco was to increase racial tension.

But if most Muslims believe in living like the fifth column in non-muslim countries, then its reasonable to persecute them in those non-muslim majority countries to protect the integrity of those non-muslim countries.

richwicks says

Racial tension provides clarity to voters. Its manufactured by political parties and spread through traditional and social media. Now the goal is digital currency and centralized government. The next several years will reveal what their playbook contains. I expect several pain and social tension beginning in 2023 and picking up speed in 2024. If DeSantis wins, all hell will break loose.

This is a common problem when dealing with real terrorism, like the mass stabbings that were perpetrated by Uighurs.

Obviously not all Uighurs did it, and the ones that didn't have anything to do with it are innocent. How many Uighurs are in those camps and why are they there?

Similar things happened to the Irish. A lot of Irish in Northern Ireland suffered for things they never did and would never do. Yet there was a significant fraction of the population that supported bombings, for example.

What's the best answer when the supporters and helpers are hidden among a population? I don't know. Maybe address the root cause. Pretty hard if the root cause is Islam itself, but in the case of ireland, the root cause is systematic oppression. And some of that oppression was because of terrorism, making the whole thing kind of recursive.

"Severely punish in accordance with the law the violent terrorists and resolutely crack down on those who have been swollen with arrogance," Xinhua quoted the President Xi as saying.

How did this systematic oppression occur? I want to learn about it.

@gabbar It's a long story, but basically the English invaded Ireland over a long period and expropriated most of the land, handing it over to English nobility. The native Irish nobility fled to the continent, and the rest of the Irish were impoverished by lack of land and had no way to escape their poverty. They were systematically excluded from all positions of power, higher education, and all of the professional occupations because they were Catholic and spoke Irish instead of English.

They were forced to be tenant farmers for the English and had only small plots of land to grow food for themselves. Then the potato blight came in the 1840's, about a million Irish starved to death while Ireland continued to export large quantities of food, particularly beef, to England. Another million emigrated to America, among them my paternal ancestors.

Even after the independence of the Republic of Ireland, the Irish in Northern Ireland were still excluded from jobs and education, and I believe to this day it is forbidden for them to speak Irish in court. You can get a translator in a Northern Irish court for, say, Spanish, but not for Irish.

I found several official records of people with my own last name, maybe ancestors of mine, who had their land taken from them in 1641. The land was given to English nobility.

Xi said that about Muslim stabbers. Brandon is a turd. There is no reason to speak like this about your own citizens that are strangers to you. I bet that there not a lot of Presidents on the planet who stoop this low to score political points. Lindsey Graham called for shooting of US citizens, what gives him this authority?

Booger says

Haha - everything he said before was fine (he's criticized white groups, black groups, etc), but he's criticized the "Jewish media". He's finished. He's got Fuck You money, but he's now radioactive.

Make what you want out of that. Being black won't protect him. I saw the assassination of Norman Finkelstein and he was MILQUETOAST, Bobby Fischer was destroyed, and he was Jewish. This is because Zionism is conflated with Judaism, and as you all just learned over the last 10 years, most people are tribal cattle, including Jewish people, or white people or black. Break out of the mold, and there's consequences.

I remember when Louis Farrakhan got in trouble for saying Hitler was “great man” after being called Hitler himself. It was intended as a witty comeback, turning an insult into a compliment. He also clarified that Hitler was “wicked” as well but that of course was not enough to satisfy his literalist, binary-thinking critics.

Those are FBI glowies for sure, especially with the Nazi salutes, but I do think it's true that Jews in the media will cancel you if you say that Jews in the media cancel people. Kind of proves the point when they do that.

It's interesting because the corporate media is also forbidden from saying anything bad about black people, even if true. But Kanye is black. So now what? I expect they just want to make him disappear.

Dems: "CIA, go use that EMP heart attack device on Kanye. We can't have a plantation revolt this close to the midterms, in case our plans for shutting the midterms down doesn't work. A few hospital protocols form Herr Fauci will finish him off if he survives."
