For a while many years ago I was very angry. My rage was such that I could barely control it, and badly at that.

Curious, what triggered your rage?

richwicks says

I don't feel any rage whatsoever.

I was angry when I discovered the lies of the 3 WTC towers. I was angry when I saw the lies of the Covid scam.

I am no longer angry. I feel a zen like peacefulness from the fact that I can do very little. At this point it is almost amusing.

Curious, what triggered your rage?

It was my response to something like what @richwicks has described. I finally realized that society/government/other people are idiots at best and psychopathic murderous madmen at worst. It was realizing that pretty much everything I was ever told was a lie meant to gaslight me and turn me into a robot. It really came to a head after the housing meltdown. I actually did pretty well (thanks iTulip) but the shock of that whole compound clusterfuck scarred me.

compound clusterfuck

Realizing the world has always been a cluster fuck is helpful. The old AA, "...the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference." Is also helpful.

I was pissed off to no end when I realized to what extent the government lied to me, but they've been lying so long, and the people around me are so oblivious, I can just laugh about it at this point.

It really seems that the people I know and have known for a long time, aren't even human. I can't talk to them. Television controls them, they don't control themselves and I know "smart people".

It's the realization that's the bombshell.

22 years ago I was walking with my cousin with my dogs and we were discussing the government and the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and although we both knew we were being deceived, we didn't know to what level. It was brought up "would you rather be miserable and know the truth, or be oblivious and be happy?" We both decided it was better to be miserable and know the truth.

Well. I know the truth now but good goddamned luck telling anybody else about it, they won't believe you.

We're run by a bunch of sociopathic psychopaths who are controlled entirely by our banking system, we have propaganda 24 hours a day 7 days a week, propaganda is all over our "entertainment", and society's god is television. We are seriously in a dystopia.

Same. I was bitter for a while after that. I really hate seeing people being taken advantage of.

December 31st will roll into January 1st 2023 much like it has over millennia

We will all get one year older, while some of us will leave the mortal world and venture to Elysian Fields or other venues outside of the mortal realm

Nothing will change for the better in Washington, if anything it will get worse

Everything people argue and disagree with now will continue without missing a beat

Given there will be more people born each year without an equivalent number dying to keep some semblance of balance resources of every description especially potable water will increase exponentially in value and be the root cause of future armed conflict

My dog will continue to be my loyal companion and agree with everything I want to do and say.

DD214 says

Given there will be more people born each year without an equivalent number dying

Given? Are you sure?

There will be - guaranteed, unless you have an inside track on some impending mass extinction event, which in the case of humans would be a blessing to the planet

@Onvaction

I am as sure there will me more people born than dying as some people are about elections.

That Arafat ("Aref") was a KGB agent born in Egypt, and the PLO was "Plantation" whereas the PFLP was "Little Farm" in KGB documents?

That the Palestinians never revolted against decades of Jordanian annexation but claim it's just about being their own country?

That the Israeli state can and has offered and followed through on many concessions, but none with the Palestinians have ever resulted in them holding up the end of the Bargain?

That Bethlehem went from being a majority Christian town until the moment the Israelis signed the Oslo Accords and left, and then "magically", Christians are pushed, defrauded, and intimidated to the point where they are only 20% of Bethlehem in just 30 years?

AmericanKulak says

That the Palestinians never revolted against decades of Jordanian annexation but claim it's just about being their own country?

The Palestinians in the West Bank haven't revolted in 20 years. They haven't done anything.

MOST of what we see are engineered terrorist campaigns controlled by Israel itself. Hezbollah was founded by Mossad for example. Just like Al Qaeda was created by the United States, and ISIS was created both by Israel and the United States.

Create the excuse to do what you want to do. Every country does it, and people should recognize it.

Israel will take over the West bank in time, then probably Gaza then expand into Syria. That's been the 70 year course. Who cares about what is morally right or wrong? The US and Israel nor the world at large don't, not in the slightest. They might PRETEND to, but they don't. It's all virtue signalling nonsense.

We are fed a constant stream of nonsense and propaganda about the situation, to the point it's sickening once you see it. Americans are totally uninformed on the situation, but we're not the worst, the Israelis have no idea. Netanyahu, unironically, told Jordan Peterson that there was nobody there when the Jewish people started moving in. I don't know if Netanyahu believes this, and I really don't care. If he believes it, that's pretty ignorant, if he doesn't, that's pretty dishonest, but Israelis do believe it by and large.

Who cares? It's just another stupid conflict.

i predict another year of war since swamp rammed budget for next year before new congress takes over. fucking scammers.

Eric Holder says

Here I will collect bold predictions so we can see what came true and what didn't

Bold? Okay. Billions of people will die imminently or in 2023. Japan will be sunk to the bottom of the ocean. The west coasts will be slammed by the largest tsunami ever witnessed in written history. Most SEA countries will face an extinction level event.

And no matter where you are, you'll know it's happening.

US CBDCs roll out with the 'promise', to "never get ride of cash".

Right, Israel unilaterally withdrawing from Gaza a decade ago and the total lack of free elections there is a sign Israel is planning to take over.

BTW, the Egyptians have a three-layer security wall with Gaza. When Gazans complain that the Israelis have shut down their border, they conveniently ignore that their Arab brethen don't want their Hamas Mafia and ISIS-affiliate gun smuggling campaign either.

Despite billions in aid ($200+M this year from US Taxpayers alone) the Palestinians never improve or fix infrastructure. Why should Hamas repair the fresh water treatment plant, when they can sell expensive bottled water whose profits enrich the leadership?

It's all grift. The PA and Hamas is a mafia, they don't want a solution, they maximize profits and get to wave the victim flag endlessly. If normalcy is being made, they blackmail some law students or hype some orphan males into a bombing or stabbing.

There's a reason why the Paleban Mafia doesn't want Israel making peace with Arab States, since it greatly effects their grift program. In the next decade, Israel will have normalized relations with almost every Arab state except perhaps the private fiefdom of the House of Assad

AmericanKulak says

Israel withdrew from Gaza temporarily, and then once they did, continued to build settlements in the West Bank. Every settler in Gaza was given a new home in the West Bank, purchased with US "aid". It was simply an empty PR move.

So what? Do you think I am not aware that part of the conflict is that Israel is driving Palestinians into Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon?

AmericanKulak says

There is no such thing as aid. It's just bribes. It is used to either keep oligarchs in power of the government, or the government in power directly. Aid never reaches the population. Do you think Ukrainians are getting aid?

AmericanKulak says

It's all grift. The PA and Hamas is a mafia, they don't want a solution

Yeah, that's absolutely correct. They don't want a solution, if there's a solution, that removes an excuse for "aid", it also threatens the current power structure, and it's not just true for Hamas and the Palestinian authority, it's true for Likud as well.

Every government is a criminal syndicate, including ours.AmericanKulak says

We're in total agreement.

Here's a juicy set of predictions for 2023:

DECEMBER 27, 2022 / 10:29 AM

(Reuters) - Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, an arch loyalist of Vladimir Putin given a new job this week, predicted war between Germany and France next year and a civil war in the United States that would lead to Elon Musk becoming president.
Medvedev, deputy head of Putin’s advisory security council, served as president during a four-year spell when Putin held the office of prime minister. He appears to have seen his fortune rise in the Kremlin, which said on Monday he would now serve as Putin’s deputy on a body overseeing the military industry.
In his list of predictions for 2023, published on his personal Telegram and Twitter accounts, he also foresaw Britain rejoining the EU, which would in turn collapse.
...

Civil war in USA might be a campaign to extirpate the tainted fruits of stolen elections in the foreign occupied foreign city state of Washington DC. The Republic won't go to war against itself.

That's never happened, there's never been talk of that. Israel has practically begged Egypt to take Gaza back. Egypt doesn't want the drama of de-Hamazing Gaza. Then, to make Gaza a City State that is a terminus for an oil/gas pipeline from the Gulf. Hamas Mafia rejected it since it required free and fair elections under Global Administration.

richwicks says

So what? Do you think I am not aware that part of the conflict is that Israel is driving Palestinians into Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon?

They don't want the Paleban. Jordan got coup'd by the PLO, the PLO interfered in the Lebanese Civil War, Assad keeps them in Ghettos, and Egypt doesn't want them.

Note the settlements are Jews reclaiming Ottoman/British title deeds after being expelled by Jordan's illegal occupation of Samaria/Judah, aka "The West Bank" - IF you're looking from Amman. Palestinians never revolted, protested, or petitioned to be free of Jordanian control for 20 years, they're happy to be under Arab Muslims.

Ethnic Cleansing is a wonderful solution. It worked great in Germany, with all the pains in the asses being kicked out of Northern Poland, the Sudentenland, and parts of the Netherlands and Rhine-adjacent Belgium and France. All the Poles were shipped out of Ukraine back into Poland, etc. Only two places it wasn't practiced was Ulster and Yugoslavia, interestingly the two places with the most ethnic violence in the PostWar period Europe.

richwicks says

There is no such thing as aid. It's just bribes. It is used to either keep oligarchs in power of the government, or the government in power directly. Aid never reaches the population. Do you think Ukrainians are getting aid?

I think we're pretty much paying for Ukraine's entire government plus a huge premium for grift both there and here and Brussels too. On top of military aid.

richwicks says

Yeah, that's absolutely correct. They don't want a solution, if there's a solution, that removes an excuse for "aid", it also threatens the current power structure, and it's not just true for Hamas and the Palestinian authority, it's true for Likud as well.

It isn't, because US aid is about 3% of the Israeli Budget - Budget, NOT GDP. It's 1% of GDP tops. The false hope of anti-zionists is that the US aid props up the country, they forget Israel fought 3 major conflicts and survived without any US aid from 1947-1968.

Anti-zionists also are loathe to admit the reason Israel started getting US aid was because the USSR dumped 1000s of SA-2s, T-55s, MiG-21s, etc. plus 10k's of advisors into Egypt and Syria in the 1960s, so it was a Cold War balancing. Now Lockheed-Martin and General Dynamics are addicted to the extra revenue, since 90%+ ends up in US Defense Contractors.

richwicks says

We're in total agreement.

It's going to happen. And it will resolve the conflict. The Gulf states will get Arab Muslim fellahin workforce to boss around, and the Palies will complain about that instead of Israel. Most Palestinians would move for low 5 figures, or 6 figures for the home price, but PA/Hamas would never let it happen.

I'm not going to waste my time discussing this with you, especially with you.

Every single one of the settlers, in Jewish only settlements in Gaza were given new homes in the West Bank.

Doesn't matter what Israel states or says, it's quite obvious what they are going to do. There will NEVER be a two state solution, and there's no plans for one. If Israel wanted a two state solution, they would UNILATERALLY declare their borders, and whatever was left would be "Palestine", they don't need ANY cooperation from the Palestinians to do this and they could have done this any time in the last 40 years.

It's a racist, ethnocentric state and Americans either don't know what it is, or don't care.

It's not worth my time arguing about the obvious here. If you can't see it your either blind or just know nothing about the situation.

AmericanKulak says

It's not about the money. Money is just digits entered in a computer at the Federal Reserve now. It's the problems this creates for the United States. The US should remain neutral and the biggest error this nation has made is unqualified and unconditional support of Israel. Israel isn't our problem.

https://t.me/medvedev_telegram/237

Before the new year, everyone likes to make predictions

Many exercise in futuristic hypotheses, competing in the proposal of the most unexpected and even absurd. We will also do our part.

What could happen in 2023:
1. Increasing oil prices to $150 per barrel and gas prices to $5,000 per 1,000 cubic meters. m.
2. The return of the UK to the European Union.
3. The collapse of the European Union after the return of the UK and the abolition of the circulation of the euro as the currency of the former EU.
4. Capture by Poland and Hungary of the western regions of the former Ukraine.
5. Creation of the Fourth Reich on the basis of Germany and the satellites that joined it (Poland, the Baltic countries, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, the Kyiv Republic, and other outcasts).
6. War between France and the Fourth Reich. Partition of Europe, including a new partition of Poland.
7. Separation of Northern Ireland from the Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and accession to the Republic of Ireland.
8. The American Civil War, the separation of California and Texas into independent states. Creation of the union state of Texas and Mexico. The subsequent victory of Elon Musk during the US presidential election in some of the states assigned to the Republicans after the civil war.
9. Transfer of all major stock markets and financial activity from the US and Europe to Asia.
10. The collapse of the Bretton Woods financial system, including the collapse of the IMF and the World Bank. Rejection of the euro and the dollar as world reserve currencies. The return of the gold standard. Transition to the active use of digital fiat currencies.

Happy New Year to you, Anglo-Saxon friends and their happily grunting gilts!

Every single one of the settlers, in Jewish only settlements in Gaza were given new homes in the West Bank.

Based on land claims from before the Jordanian illegal annexation and expulsion of the Jews. Israel brought off some of those claims and gave them to the settlers.

It also left behind in Gaza Hundreds of millions in infrastructure, including a vast greenhouse complex, which the Gazans smashed and looted.

Yep, there can never be a two state solution anymore. That plan is over since the Pallies never follow through. Israel can and has made concessions to both Jordan and Egypt, which were upheld. The Palestinians do not uphold their end of any bargains.

richwicks says

It's a racist, ethnocentric state and Americans either don't know what it is, or don't care.

Judea is home of the Jews. Otherwise, return ireland to Great Britain who had 5 centuries of occupancy.

Israel would shit itself to have a resolution. Just as they were happy to return the oil and chemcial rich Sinai for a Peace Treaty for which Sadat was executed.

The existence of Israel is God's Will and a freakin' miracle. He gave the entire rest of the Middle East to the Arabs, they'll be fine.

We don't pay for them. We give a gift certificate for mostly aerospace equipment. F-35s don't really play a role in reoccupying squatter's land.

The $4B is nothing compared to the budget, but it still gets a disproportionate amount of attention. Certainly these days with Ukraine, which is what, 3-4 decades of Lockheed-Martin gift certificates in one year - and much of it, unlike Israel gifts, is flat out loans and guarantees to keep the government and economy afloat

If the US simply abandoned the Middle East 20 years ago and let them work out their own shit among one another, the US would have at least 10 trillion dollars of less debt.

That's the true cost of interference. Not just our nation's moral bankruptcy, but our actual bankruptcy. The national debt doubles every 8 years. It will be over 60 trillion dollars in just 8 years. I suspect it's already over 40 trillion and the Federal reserve is just lying about it.

Top 10 Conspiracy Theories that Will Be Validated in 2023
In the spirit of New Year’s predictions, I will boldly assert that the same may be true of 2023’s future word of the year, “conspiracy theory.”

The role that the intel community and the Justice Department played in fomenting violence through psy-ops on Jan. 6, 2021, will be exposed.

The deadly impact of the COVID vaccines will become undeniable.

The scope of China’s control over the U.S. government will become clearer.

The true nature of David DePape’s relationship with Paul Pelosi will be revealed.

We will find out what Trump’s purloined Mar-a-Lago files really contained.

We will learn what the Democrats intend to do with Joe Biden and who will be tapped to replace him.

We will discover the truth about the U.S.–Ukrainian partnership to research and develop bioweapons.

The Left’s plans to normalize and mainstream pedophilia will come to fruition.

The World Economic Forum will lead the way in trying to turn humans into glorified Matrix-style batteries.

As the relationship between Big Tech and the spy agencies becomes clearer, we will learn that our personal devices are tracking our every move.
