Further Third Worldification of American cities…
You’d think they’d at least try to clean up the area around the White House. Maybe even try to mask the damage caused by the anti-Trump insurrectionists several years ago. Nope.

Yeah… no. It seems that whole swathes of LA have been turned into the Third World. This was not a sad inevitability; this was a result of intentional choices by those in charge of the city, county and state.
Yeeeeeeesh.
You can’t have vast numbers of homeless like this and justify open borders.

It is hard these days to separate Hitler from the occult. Regardless of how much Adolf *actually* believed in Atlantis or Vril or Hyperborea or Ancient Aryan Supermen or all that rubbish, it is now just accepted that he did, and that those beliefs informed his nutty plans and actions. Did he really think that the Spear of Destiny would lead him to victory? Shrug.
Guess what: we’re here again, this time with Putin and whackadoodle Slavic magical superstitions:
The Crazy Mystical Impulses Sending Putin Wild in Ukraine
Valery Solovey, who’s trained many members of Putin’s ambassadorial corps at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations and served as the prestigious school’s director of public relations, either knows a thing or two about the black arts of Russian diplomacy, or is dafter than a borscht sandwich. As the professor tells it, Putin once commanded Kremlin sorcerers to ritualistically kill a black dog so he could drink the blood to ensure a crushing victory in Ukraine. When that dog didn’t hunt, Solovey claimed that Putin ordered all the magicians’ heads cut off and displayed in front of their homes.
Uh-huh.
The article is filled with nutso. How much of it is accurate? How much of it was dreamed up by Putins enemies? How much of it by delusional supporters who buy into the nuttiness and see Putin as divinely anointed? Dunno. At first glance, you’d think that a guy brought up in the atheistic, materialistic Soviet system wouldn’t be superstitious. But the Commies didn’t actually get rid of the human need for magical thinking; they just redirected the need for God to the State, magic for Socialism. It would surprise me none at all to find the the KGB was filled to overflowing with wannabe-wizards making appeals to the spirit realm.
Appeals to the supernatural are hardly rare in politics. The Middle East is built (and destroyed) on that; American politics is full to overflowing with politicians on both sides claiming special status with God or Jesus. But in American politics, the supernatural is usually pretty performative; you don’t often get the feeling that this politician or that actually really buys that deeply into it. But Putin is *clearly* psychologically unsound, and is clearly aggressive in a way not seen in Europe since Bad Mustache Man. Couple that with especially crazy magical beliefs, easily influenced not by a massive, slow-moving and hidebound Church but by random Rasputin-like weirdos… well, it seems like bad times might get worse.

I’d be fascinated to see a breakdown of majors represented here:
There’s something wrong with people that full of irrational hate, and I love to see them driven to apoplexy by someone simply showing up. Now to start pressing charges.

Posting delayed due to “issues…”
This seems unwise on many, many levels.

There are two things wrong with this video. First, it shows vast numbers of people willingly engaged in watching paint dry as a sport. Second… welll…

Drone footage reveals The Line megacity under construction in Saudi Arabia
“The Line” is a planned 170-kilometer long dystopian nightmare. It will cost Saudi Arabia a *vast* amount of money and will almost certainly fail; those who invest in it will lose their shirts, those who move in will come to regret it. It’s a way to punish rich morons… including the Saudi monarchy.
The Saudis *could* use their trillions in wealth to build a space program and colonize the universe, cementing their culture as the permanently dominant form of humanity until the heat death of the universe. Instead… this.
Good.

Stacey Abrams, failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate trying again, has an interesting solution to the economic crisis: kill the children. They cost money, you see. If you didn’t have your kids, you could better afford gas and food and rent and such. Says so at about 4:23:
This is the person that the knavish dullards behind “Star Trek Discovery” chose to portray as the President of Earth. Ironic given that she is basically advocating for human – or at least Western – extinction. It seems more likely to me by far that she is working for outside forces – whether China, Klingons or the Chaos Gods – to depopulate at least the United States, to clear it out with minimal fuss so it can be colonized by someone else.

From the long irrelevant ACLU, dated June 11, 2020:
Defunding the Police Will Actually Make Us Safer
So how’s that going? Let’s check in with CNN (September 25, 2022):
Once nicknamed ‘Murderapolis,’ the city that became the center of the ‘Defund the Police’ movement is grappling with heightened violent crime
Shocking. Who, I ask you, who could have possibly foreseen that defunding, abusing, disparaging the police would embolden the criminals?

This is the sort of problem that could be fairly easily fixed. Reinstate loony bins, lock up criminals, deport illegals, enforce the border, and cities will become far safer, cleaner, healthier places to live and work. They fact that those in power are *not* fixing this indicates that this is what they want.
Who benefits from tearing down civilization and spreading chaos and misery?
