#WINNING ... #SeriouslyThisTime



Bill Gates is one of the faces of the Deep State. There are plenty of nefarious Globalist operations going on in the world that he is involved in. He may even mean well in all of these, but without the wisdom of a Solomon, and probably not any more that of a Sidney Sweeney, his meaning well and his small bit of smarts combined with his money and power comes to evil nonetheless.



One of the biggest of the Globalist economic-control ops is the Climate Calamity™ scam. Bill Gates has been at the forefront of this stupidity. As with the rest of the purveyors of this scam, he may very well not really believe the scary predictions. Lots of these guys live at sea level, travel on jets that burn 5-10 thousand lb./hr of "warming fuels", and generally don't seem all too personally concerned about the imminent death of the planet Earth.

Bill Gates may have (not written but) borrowed and sold the first very well-known operating system for personal computers, but other than that ... he surely knows nothing about atmospheric physics, radiation and convection heat transfer, and thermodynamics.

OTOH, neither does that other guy up top. I'd venture to say that Donald Trump knows even less, and would find it even harder to learn about, atmospheric physics, radiation and convection heat transfer, and thermodynamics than Bill freaking Gates! Here's what he DOES know - Donald Trump knows a scam, hoax, or con job when he sees one. Because he's NOT a face of the Globalist Deep State, Trump also CARES about America and Americans not getting scammed, hoaxed, or conned.

As President, Donald Trump told the UN Assembly, in front of the whole World Planet Earth, that "Climate change is "the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world.". A smarter guy, who might really understand the inadequacies of attempted whole-earth climate models, with a physics or engineering background, elected as President of the US, would STILL not do what Trump did. The smart guy might try to explain (as I would), and get nowhere with people that don't care what's correct, but he just wouldn't get up there and say that.

Earlier, TWICE, as -45 and -47, President Trump backed the US out of that Paris, let's-all-except-China-save-the-planet-together-by-living-like-cave-men, Accords. That and his blunt statement at the US, and now this - per this ZeroHedge article...



That's #WINNING!

Apparently, the Climate Calamity™ is NOT the end of the world as we know it, Bill Gates now "realizes". Why would a Deep State Globalist toadie like Bill Gates back down? Donald Trump. No matter what you think of the guy and of current-day America, if America, with the power of Trump and MAGA, is calling the whole damn thing a con job, and will not take this stuff seriously, why proceed along these lines? There are other Globalist programmes that may bear sweeter fruit... say that sweet White-Middle-Class-destroying Population Replacement Program. Yeah, Trump, MAGA, and even some Euros are resisting this, but they figure that's too little, too late. (We'll just see about that.)



However, there may be another kind of power struggle involved here. That is, electrical power, much of which is needed, apparently, to let that Artificial Stupidity answer all our questions and do all our jobs for us. One of the ZH commenters, name of Bacon's Rebellion, went ahead and asked AI itself about this. (I wish I had thought of this first!):
Let's ask AI

Q: AI requires immense amounts of energy, how much Co2 is this going to release into the atmosphere?

A: AI generates tens of millions of tons of CO₂ annually, with estimates suggesting it could rival the emissions of entire countries

Q: To save the planet from climate change wouldn't it be better not to use AI?

A: "The short answer is"...it went on and on justifying its existence by powering AI with "renewable energy".
Or, nuclear power? I guess AI somehow missed that source of reasonably priced, very steady electrical power. Perhaps Mr. Rebellion asked that question while AI was running at a lower voltage due to working off renewables on a cloudy windless afternoon. It should have thought about this, as nuclear reactions don't involve combustion anyway. The worries about those two products of clean combustion, Carbon Dioxide and Water - don't forget the water! - aren't a factor for nuclear power. Why then, have the human Climate Alarmists not been strongly pro-nuke?

Why, indeed? Is it perhaps that they don't REALLY want a solution to this made-up crisis that doesn't involve big World Government organizations controlling the generation, distribution, and use of energy? Bill Gates might be thinking along the same lines here. He's heavily involved in that Artificial Stupidity stuff, and it requires a lot of power, so many new nuclear power plants of all shapes and sizes have been proposed to help us get our answers to questions like "Are Sidney Sweeney's titties real or silicone?" and "Did she get them done in Silicone Valley?"

But, but, Bill Gates could still push the Climate Calamity™ and get nuke plants built for AI and still not be a hypocrite (except for the bit about the jets and houses and ...). He and others could keep being alarmists but still go pro-nuke to help their AI projects. I'm sorry, but I cannot unravel this big ball of stupid in one post here. It's a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, covered and smothered by cheese and bacon bits...

Let's just be glad and (for some of us) admit that President Trump has won this battle over the biggest con job in the history of the World, at least when it comes to the individual major Deep State Globalist Bill Gates. Will this be the end of the entire Climate Calamity™ as we know it? If not fine, I feel pretty damn good about it. Thank you, President Trump!


PS: If you look at the ZH article, you'll note a graph (n-gram or something) that plots mentions of "Climate Crisis" in the Regime Media over time. Whoever made that missed something important. The only reason that this graph was down near zero until only 7 years back, is that the term had just been changed from "Climate Change", and before that, another ... this goes WAY back. I think I'll write another post about this, if I can at least figure out where to do that n-gram search (hell, you commenters - say, Adam Smith - must have told me somewhere already). Also, I want to compare definitions of "scam" vs. "hoax" vs. "con".

Irish Rioters - Cheerful videos but, please, "It's NOT the vetting, stupid."

OK, we're not going dark. [Just pretend like none of that ever happened and move on - Ed] Wait, if you've read the comments under the last 2 posts you'll have understood My Struggle. ;-} Anyway, we're good for a long time now as far as our readers go - even if we slowed down or took any kind of break - not planned, though - the site will remain up for 2 years without anyone getting up off anyone's ass and doing something about the increasingly annoying and expensive GoDaddy hosting/domain registration company. So, as not to bore the living out of readers, we'll get to any more of that story that fits in with our curmudgeonry themes later. Let's get back to our bread & butter, the immigration stupidity topic.

I've been enjoying seeing a bunch of Irishmen throw heavy objects at the cops in Dublin, in the cause of resistance to their version of the Population Replacement Programme. Wait, rooting for the cops to get beat up? We've had our share of liaising, they may call it now, with Johnny Law, all of it regarding traffic laws, but Peak Stupidity doesn't have a problem with the idea of police in general. It's that, as one of those blokes told them in so many words in one of the videos, this defense of the Establishment has made these cops traitors to Ireland and a part of the enemy.

A week ago, in our post Migrant vs. Migrant, we asked the question, Wouldn't it be better for us if all the masses immigrants to America and other Western countries were not violent at all? We answered our question in the negative. It's those horrible violent acts by these invaders that have gotten the people of Western Europe out into the streets. (We've heard most about England and Ireland*.)

This latest bout of rioting in Dublin was sparked by another atrocious immigrant act of violence and has the usual target, a hotel, in this case, the very biggest in all of Ireland(!) (Citywest Hotel) that has been renovated and set up to house masses of, I'd say well over a thousand, non-White foreigners. Of course, it'd be even more effective to be able to get to, in any way, the Globalists in the Irish Government and even further up who arrange this nasty business. However, the cops are the ones in the way of the rioters' aims of shutting down this attempt to foist another large group of strange and unassimilable foreigners upon their society. Lord knows that political solutions are going nowhere...



It must be in my blood, but seeing these videos makes me want to be there with them. I know violence is not the answer to it all, but at some point it has become the most effective, and is I'm sure a big reliever of this stress induced by Globalists bent on destroying all the White nations.

What I've noticed in these videos is that it's only when these blokes are really in the middle of raising hell, letting their anger out at whomever's in the way, that they actually speak their minds. In that state, one can't help it. I don't have exactly the video (seen on x-twitter) that I wanted, but it showed the men trying to get through to these cops that they're on the wrong side for future of Ireland. (Those wouldn't be the exact words - not in the middle of a riot.)

However, when even these folks are interviewed, just as I noticed in Summer '24 from the videos of UK rioting - well, my writing follows:
Notice a few things. Everyone is angry, and rightly so. However, even in that anger there are a number of cucks seen - or just so beaten down from years of PC that they can't get themselves to say more. "No, it's not about race or color." Others are straight honest. I hope their courage and honesty are contagious. It can work like that, but I guess it depends on whether the cucked are careful with words due to fear, or due to ingrained PC they just can't shake.
... I saw some of the same talk from people being interviewed during this latest rioting. One lady was worried that the cops were hemming in the group from both sides, so how would she get home. Yeah, it's a riot, Alice, so that's how it goes, and women probably shouldn't be there. Interview some of the men.

Then, from the guys too, you'll hear how "it's not about color, you know", and... shut it. You're already out there in the street, risking injury, arrest, and incarceration. Say what you want to say.

"That's 150 million pounds" or Euros or squid, or whatever they use, "being spent on these migrants instead of on needy Irish people!" True dat, but dat's not the real point either.

Here's what I heard a lot of ... vetting. "None of them been vetted, ya' know, and ..." OK, let's not get stupid here. These people are from far-away foreign lands. If said places had accurate meticulous records from schools, banks, highway departments... etc, to begin with, then they'd be being run by White people by definition and these people wouldn't have left.

Do you think that the Irish version of the State Dept. or CBP would have obtained records from these Pakistani invaders' high schools, you know, grades, tardy occurrences, school detention excuse me, RTC (Responsible Thinking Center) periods for throwing food and minor rapes, credit score records (credit score?), or even convictions for murder from the local police as determined from those addresses on the paperwork?

Even it they HAD that - too silly to think about, actually - does that mean this vetting would result in a great group of people beautifying Ireland? Hey, dummies, they're still Pakistanis!

Even if these "migrants" were so damned vetted that it was only the future valedictorians and nuclear engineers and PTO Moms that are coming into Ireland, wouldn't that still result in the people being replaced, with what is going on right now?

Vetting!, vetting!, vetting! Stop saying that, because vetting doesn't matter one bit in this struggle. Say shout what you mean, and mean what you say shout. I've heard the chant: Get them out! That could mean just the particular invader-swamped hotel in YOUR town, with an implication of NIMBY**. However, I think those who shout it know better - it means GET! THEM! OUT! OF! OUR! IRELAND!... ALL! OF! THEM!

I imagine that's what the Irishmen mean with their chant, and I hope that's what all of them understand is the point of all this. That silly talk about "I'm not racist", "It's about the money!" and "Vetting, vetting, vetting!" is a way of weaseling out of telling the whole truth, so don't do that. Tell the truth. You've already got a lot on the line - what more could they do to you?



* I suppose, to be clear, we could say "about the UK and Ireland" with "the UK" including Northern Ireland (as it should) and where there have also been riots.

** That's an oldie - Not In My Back Yard, used in the past to call out those in favorite of a good environment only for themselves.

... Here* is the easiest place to check in the near future - weeks or even months - for an update of what iis the solution or lack thereof as far as the Godaddy web problems we are having. Just to reiterate, if it turns out I've been automatically paid up, the site will be here, I'll let you all know, and I'll keep posting. However, I'll have a HUGE incentive to migrate the site to a friendlier "locale". Then, this will not be a time-sensitive thing... if I don't let it be.

I tried to say goodbye with a VERY LONG post** in early September '24. You may want to read my reason there. There's no point in another now, as anything I write now may not be viewable soon - for good or just until I straighten this out.

I backslid on my promise only a few months later during the election. I have worried about this a bit, though a friend of mine figures I'm doing the right thing by keeping on writing. By this point, I've done a number of things to try to fix our problem, I'll do what I can a little further, but other than that I should leave this up to HIM.

Keep in mind, that this is not a health problem now - in fact, I just did a regular medical thing (and how many blog posts would I have gotten outta that?!), and I'm good to go, but it's more a problem of being sick in a different way. I'm sick of the entire high-security, password-complicated, multi-factor-authentication-based, de-humanized system that I suppose has been set up to deal with this scam-laden world of today.*** (Remember just going on yahoo mail and picking up another account for this or that?) It's not even that I'm so awfully worried about sending in ID scans. After all, they have my phone # and (maybe) current credit card info - the US Feral Gov't could get what it needed. Nah, I'm just sick of dealing with it.

Yes, all the posts and comments are saved in a couple of places. If I want to keep this going, one way or another, I can. I just need to listen. In case I'm done, I want to thank all the readers, many in number per our stats, but unknown to me. Numbers have given me encouragement, but what has encouraged me even more has been the comments from all of you. Thank you all so much!

Check that link at the top on occasion...

Site Note: Be aware of possible loss of Peak Stupidity...

OK, this is last minute notice, but I've only had a week to deal with this. The long story would make a perfect Artificial Stupidity/Curmudgeonry post, but I figure it may not be worth explaining it right now.

The abbreviated version: Yahoo mail, something that was to be the subject of another post, locked up my 3 accounts a few months back. Yeah, "You haven't logged in in awhile, so we'll send a code to your other account." Same on that one, and the other one! One of them I've had for right at 30 years, and, well, honestly it's not quite as Joni Mitchell sang (and the expression before her), as I don't really miss what I had since it's gone.

Then, regarding Peak Stupidity operations, at renewal time, these GoDaddy people are not OK anymore with my ususal account number and PIN to work with my account.* They want to send me a code to the one of my dead email accounts. I can't get a code there.

I CAN upload files and all that, but I can't give them the info they need to even LET ME PAY! Now, some of the services were paid** for by autopay, something I generally detest. I saw the charges on my statement. The problem is the last part, due real soon now. I'm hoping that the same CC will cover it via autopay, but I am not sure at all this will happen.

To regain GoDaddy's trust, so to speak, in this scam-laden society, they want me to fill out a form with "government-issued" ID and all. Not agonna do it, as the man said long ago. I may have to go in a new direction.

The Bluenote web services company guy*** sounded helpful, so we'll see if I can set up properly with them.

So, here's the deal: First off, I have saved, as I do regularly, the database, meaning all posts and comments (along with a couple of smaller tables). I saved all the images as numbered here also, something I should have done long ago.

However, it's possible you won't see the site at all as of a deadline tommorrow night. This may be temporary, it may be permanent, or maybe I'll be paid up for another year, and all will be well. There are some details that I am witholding for reasons.

I'll write more in the morning, and then, if you see nothing here, look on The Unz Review. For those who have not gotten to reading here from that site, I'll make sure to give details in the morning on how to get to any notices there about the present and future of Peak Stupidity.



* Getting a live person on the phone has become ridiculous. They wanted to send a code to a phone (old land-line number from WAY back) that I cannot use for the purpose. I hung up and, let me see.... 14 zeros seems to work to finally get someone... to tell me they can't deal with me. Rather than the sharp White People of GoDaddy, I have gotten 2 Hispanic-sounding people, a dude and a woman, but at least not the D.I.E. HR file-photo lady yet.

** I'm gonna check later, but I'm pretty sure prices are from 5x to 10x higher than they were 12 years ago (didn't put the site up for a while, but it was peanuts then). That is not 50% or 100% higher in a decade, but that's 5x to 10x!

*** You know, I had a golden opportunity to bring up a pet peeve, as when I asked the guy if he was in India, he said "No, I'm in Asia". I guessed the Phillipines, and was right, but it too is in Asia. WTH? He was a helpful guy though, but I'd rather deal with Americans.

XNA - World Headquarters of Cheap China-made Crap


Posted On: Saturday - October 25th 2025 12:24PM MST

  Cheap China-made Crap  Geography  Big-Biz Stupidity

Alternate title: The Other People-of-Wal-Mart



That's Northwest Arkansas National airport, formerly "Regional", and all it would take is one regular flight to Canada, hell, make it Mexico, with a customs agent or two on-call, and it could be "International". That's a pretty good airport code, as these codes go, with that cool "X", and then the "NA" for Northwest Arkansas. That's where it is, up in the corner of the State, closest to Bentonville, but also near Rogers, Springdale, Fayetteville, etc.

That's quite a few destinations there on the map. The airport terminal, a small dingy place with what looked like Wal-Mart plexiglass-walled jet-bridges 20 years ago, is now decent sized, being renovated some more, and very busy. 20 years ago, as with lots of small "out-stations", this airport would have had a few flights a day to the hubs of some of the 6 big air carriers of the time.* Those Allegiant, Breeze, and Frontier flights (the latter to some degree) are different, as they don't do so much of the hub/spoke flying. There are also the Avelos and, God-help-you, Spirits that do the same, taking people to resort type destinations like Las Vegas or anywhere in Florida.

Why is this much going on in a remote corner of Arkansas? Sure, there are the Ozarks and lakes for water skiing, but no, normally an airport in an area like this would have just your basic hub flights a few times a day to the closest of them, with a few outliers. I mean you can go to Los Angeles direct from XNA. (The map shows this as an Allegiant flight now, but American has done this flight too.)

This metropolitan area, if you can call it that, now has over half a million people, having doubled in the 30 years from 1990 to 2010.. OK, but lots of half-a-milliion-people-filled places don't have airline service like this. The easy answer why XNA now does consists of one word: Wal-Mart.

Well, yeah, duh, Bentonville, Arkansas is headquarters of Wal-Mart, Wally World, the biggest brick-and-mortar (that's pretty silly, that '99-era "TECH" term, so call it "steel-and-sheet-metal-screw") retailer in the world. Let me go back to 35 years ago. My girlfriend at the time was very excited that a Wal-Mart was going to be built in our town. I had no earthly idea and thought - I can remember this - is that that Wall-Drug thing that I saw a bunch of signs about on the roads in South Dakota? I guess she was more into this than me. I got my department store stuff at K-Mart or Sears. (What's a K-Mart? What's a Sears? OK, Zoomer.)

Let me jump to a few years later, the mid/late-90s, as that's when I remember Wal-Mart's "Buy American" campaign. I'm glad I didn't go completely by memory here, as this Talk Business article says that campaign goes back to '85, way before I ever heard of the place, yet they had 882 stores and over 100,000 employees already:
Walton championed the Buy American initiative for the next few years and altered the formula the company used to determine a competitive pricing practice between goods made in the U.S. and those imported. He said if Walmart could get within 5% of the same price and quality, the retailer would take a smaller markup and go with the American-made products.
That was Sam Walton, who's no longer around (died back in '92), and I imagine the imports in '85 were from Taiwan or Mexico, not China yet.

The title of that article is The Supply Side: Walmart celebrates 40 years of buying American-made goods. Haha, yeah, where, on the toilet paper aisle... cause I don't seen ANYTHING made in America. (I have generally tried to avoid the place for the last 10 years.) I noticed the store campaign with the red, white, and blue banners was done by the latest, 1999.

Back to the Geography, there are the original small towns in this "Northwest Arkansas Statistical Area", the four mentioned above, of which Fayetteville has the Razorbacks - Univ of Arkansas - and what comes with the University environment.** There are boutique cutesy little downtowns, but no real original Arkansas towns. Bentonville has lots of mansions. I don't mean McMansions, crowded together on 1/2 acre lots either. These actual mansions have 2 acre, 5 acre, maybe bigger lots, though it's hard to tell from the ground because the place is hilly everywhere but the airport.*** Drive around the roads out of XNA, and you'll see them, one after another. These are the there for the OTHER people of Wal-mart, managers, executives, along with those of the various supplier companies.

There is a LOT of money coming into Northwest Arkansas. People can travel easily around the country and the world with it or to make some more - via Los Angeles, Dallas, New York, Detroit, to cough, China, cough, cough, from right there at XNA.**** I imagine the people of Bentonville, Fayetteville, Rogers, and Springdale welcomed the influx of that money for some years. Now, I doubt anyone with any memory of times gone by would feel that way. The OPoWM live large off of the proceeds of outsourcing American jobs, while they additionally LUV LUV LUV the Hispanic cheap labor at home. The airport ramp areas are manned by nothing but Hispanics, and many of the people working inside are foreigners too. I've seen the Hispanics working the hotels too - they are everywhere around the area.

If you're a working-class White man in the area, you've got the weight of the whole system on top of you. The good work has left, and the PRP has come home. I don't know what jobs there are that foreigners, legal and (I'm sure) illegal, won't get hired for first. These Other People of Wal-Mart don't think much of the "White trash". You could hole up on your land and make do doing a bit of this and that with your skills I suppose, but then housing and land must have gone way up in price to match the influx of money and "good White people" from where-the-hell-ever.

XNA, you say? Nah, this ain't Arkansas. It's now just the World Headquarters of Cheap China-made Crap.



* When these 6 combined into 3, that is: USAir into American, Northwest into Delta, and Continental into United, this reduced the direct-service destinations for many medium sized cities. One reason is that some hubs were just reduced to mere destinations - Delta no longer needed Northwest's Memphis, TN, and United didn't need Continental's Cleveland, OH, for example. More importantly, rather than 6 airlines' hubs to offer service to (some or even all of them), there were left only 3.

** Sure enough, the wiki demographic table from '10 says 3.1% "Asian", probably 95% of whom are at the University and/or running Chinese and/or Indian restaurants. Likely it's over 5% now

*** I'll see if I can get images later on from google maps.

**** Well, if you're one of the REALLY Big Other-People-Of-Wal-Mart, you could fly on a business jet out of Rogers, Springdale, (very nearby) Bentonville, and Fayetteville Drake Field. A Gulfstream fueled for a trip to China could get out of any one of these places I think (all have over 5,000 ft runways).

The East Wing

Early in the life of this blog, we'd quite often get our material straight off of Steve Sailer posts (when he was here on The Unz Review). Part of the reaason has been that he gets loads of stupidity material from reading the NY Times, Washington Post, etc., so we don't have to. I can't do it, so we figured we'd outsource that. By January of '17, we even had to make clear that no, we don't worship Steve Sailer, a post with an Apocalypse Now Dennis Hopper theme to it.

Today, I'm backsliding to a degree. I'll point out a good piece of Sailer Noticing, along with my additional take on the matter. It's about this story of President Trump having had the East Wing of the White House torn down to be rebuilt into some ballroom or what-have-you. Let me make clear that this stuff is in the area of SWDLAT (Stuff We Don't Like About Trump.) I don't care that Trump spent a quarter $Billion of his own money on this project - to me that makes it even worse. It's just more of that 3rd-Worldly El Caudillo Yanqui behavior as brought to us by our commenter E.H. Hail.

I care that Trump FOCUS!!, something he really sucked at as -45. He has really come around on this, and I suppose he's delegating a lot, and same here. He loves the YUGE real estate projects. Still, I want to hear about deportations, con jobs, the end of D.I.E. and all that. More of that, less of this.

As usual, the ctrl-left and anyone else with a bone to pick about Trump has been shocked, no really, that the whole East Wing of the White House has been demolished on a whim. No, wait... it's not like ... here:



Yes, that's direct from Steve Sailer's recent post Trump Is Not Tearing Down the White House. I don't think he's much into memes, much less graphic design, but the image above may even have been his doing, so, thanks, Steve. there are usually sub-titles to these posts, and this one reads:The East Wing that Democrats are currently going nuts over is actually a separate building built in 1942 that nobody much cared about until this week.

Thank you! For me it's been longer than the 4 decades even that it's been for Steve Sailer - note that's his text I captured above the image.

The rest of his post is paywalled (including comments, as is the way it works), and I've read that he got into architecture after that, which is not my thing. The basic point is that this East Wing, and same with the West Wing*, are not the two ends of the actual White House, outside the main portion with the 4 columns. I'd have thought that? How about you? The East Wing, at least, is, I don't know, I didn't pull up a scale map**, a hundred yards or more away, connected by a hallway. Middle-brow folks would call it a corridor, and high-brow people and AI, a colonnade.

I've visited the Federal Shithole a few times - the last time only due to my wife's request and "Cherry Blossoms!"*** - but we never went on the White House tour. Not everybody in the country has.

That's how you lie to all those people if you're with the Regime Media. You just don't include on your web page or on your news report a little map, such as they'd give you for free on a tour. If I had not read Mr. Sailer's title, which is not any longer than the titles I could have read on Yahoo news, I'd still be under the impression that the starboard side of that house there has been demolished. That alone wouldn't bother me a bit anyway, just sayin' - might be good for numismatic coin collecting. For others, isn't that kind of rash? Yeah, well Wiki reports:
A YouGov poll released on October 22 showed that the majority of polled Americans disapproved of the decision to demolish the East Wing, with 53% disapproving and only 24% approving.
Sure, but that IS after they were all lied to, so ...

Last evening, we had dinner out for the first time in a long time, at the old Chinese Buffet which was close to where we finished a late errand. Thankfully, the big TVs in the place had the sound completely off, but my non-TV-bred boy sat (I realized that just this morning) purposely on the side where he could watch CNN. I turned around and saw some Schumer Shutdown images and text, then next time I looked, I saw the demolished East Wing. Did CNN have a big diagram at one point to show "Here's the location of the demolition and future big ballroom."? I highly doubt it - that completely ruins the story.

The story is that this crazy Orange President of ours has had nearly half of the White House demolished. Lying by omission or something slightly different, lying by pretending you don't have any maps on ya', either way, this is how they roll in the Regime Media.


PS: Again, if Mr. Sailer veered into architecture beyond the paywall, then this is not redundant, but I would suggest in addition to describing the whole White House area as a "complex" or "campus" these 2 non-"wings" (completely erroneous term here) should be called "annexes". I remember the something annex on our college campus, the first time I'd heard that term. Change the show to The West Annex next time, so we won't all be misled.



* I guess where the TV show was supposed to have taken place, also, not my thing ... TV, that is.

** Google AI was kinda snarky to me in answering my question, I gotta say:
The East Wing's demolition process, led by President Trump, also involved tearing down the East Colonnade that connected it to the main residence. Therefore, there is no longer a distance between the original East Wing and the main White House because the original structure is gone.
OK, you piece of Artificial Stupidity, how far WAS it, then?!

*** Yes, lots of Oriental, including Japanese, tourists were milling about in masses, and I had to ask, "Don't you people have trees at home?" (They didn't answer, alas...)

Migrant vs. Migrant

  Immigration Stupidity  Race/Genetics  People's Revolt



There was a cartoon Spy vs. Spy in the old, you guessed it, Mad Magazine. Though they looked otherwise exactly the same, in this wordless cartoon there was a white colored spy and a black colored spy (saved on ink, I guess) who would fight in unique ways, sort of a like a Road Runner vs. Wile E. Coyote deal except is was a more fair fight.

Here we present Migrant vs. Migrant to answer a question I'd meant to ask in one of the very recent posts on Immigration Stupidity. (Ironically, of the many times Peak Stupidity had indicated we'd post on something in the future and never gotten a round to it, this time we got around to one we never promised, cause we forgot to promise.) That question was: Wouldn't it be better for us if all the masses immigrants to America and other Western countries were not violent at all?

Yes, this question could have been asked at the end of many of our recent posts on immigration, as the stories are of violence and lately the people's fed-up reactions to it. Just today, I read about new violent resistance in Ireland to a HUGE hotel (700-odd beds, the biggest in the whole country!) set up for $150 million to house more strange un-Irish foreigners and there having already been a rape of a young girl by one of them. I shouldn't have to say this for regular readers, but we fully support the Irish rioters. They are plain fed up. 2,000 were said to have come out, many lobbing bricks and such at the police, the very same who'd - "just doin' my job, Paddy" - arrest you for a racist tweet and go easy on the invaders based on virtue signaling and cowardice, both.



Serious safety issues? Ya think?


The Migrant vs. Migrant story popped up serendipitously, as it's also from Ireland. Per, The Gateway Pundit, Another Peaceful Migrant in Ireland Brutally Stabs Ukrainian Boy to Death in Dublin Asylum Facility. The Ukrainian boy was also a migrant.
Vadym Davydenko, 17, was stabbed to death with a kitchen knife at a Tusla refugee centre in north Dublin on Wednesday morning. The attacker gouged out one of his eyes.
A Somalian did it. Apparently, he didn't like what the young Ukrainian was cooking - probably bacon - makes me take back what I said about that church picnic with the Afghans. Per The Irish Times, we are to be more outraged due to:
Ukrainian teen Vaydm Davydenko killed in Dublin had only just arrived in Ireland.
Oh, so if he'd been there a year or two already I guess that'd have been a little better... and if he'd lived in Ireland his whole life already - hell, maybe as an Irishmen - this would have been more acceptable, more in line with the odds ... that's life, you know, when you import violent foreigners... WTH?? Anyway, this was no a fair fight, this particular Migrant vs Migrant episode, with the boy from the generally nonviolent White culture vs the Somalian.

Hey, sad circumstances for the slain boy understood, neither of the two needed to be in Ireland to begin with, from the viewpoint of a patriotic Irishmen. We mean migrant vs migrant here on a large scale, which we'll get to below.

Back to the West in general, we've been very glad to see the people's protests and rioting in Great Britain this and last summer, along with seeing some good news from other Euro countries, as we'll try to cover (see, there you go!) Here at home, Peak Stupidity has been more pleased than we would ever have expected by the actions on our own immigration invasion taken by President Trump-47.

Whether it's the dozens of millions of illegal Latin Americans who tend more violent than White Americans, the Cubans long ago let out from Castro's prisons and nuthouses, or consistently violent and dangerous Haitians, Venezuelans and Salvadorans, and all the rest let in here, and then Moslems from Pakistan, Africans, and what-not in Western Europe, it's the violent incidents that raise the immigration issue into view - see the story of Laken Riley, and it's the violent incidents that spark protests and rioting by fed-up White people.

The question I asked is if we'd be better off if the masses of immigrants were non-violent, let's say equal to the original White Westerners. That seems like an easy one. Of course, if you're the one whose little girl has been raped, Dad stabbed to death, or family members run down by a drunk Mexican, yes, that's obvious. However, as far as our nations in general, I wonder if the pushback against the PRP that is finally happening would be, were the immigrants mostly peaceful. (OK, "mostly peaceful" has been ruined by lying journalists as useful terminology.)

I had to think about it for only a second, and then "•Indians, duh!" came to mind. Scamming and other white-collar criminality aside, they are a fairly peaceful sort*, at least the ones who've come here so far. Oriental immigrants also tend less violent generally. Does that mean, there's no problem, as long as we keep out the violent races/ethnicities?

Yes, there sure is a problem, because we don't want to be replaced by even the most peaceful people in the world. The importation of only 300 million Ghandis might be ... nah, probably wouldn't be... peaceful anyway, but no matter, that doesn't change what's happening. Furthermore, the more peaceful they are, the fewer will be the sparks for change.

This shouldn't have to be the case. If Western governments had been doing their jobs, or letting us do them, in (to quote prescient Englishman Enoch Powell) providing against preventable evils, rather than destroying their own nations on behalf of Globalists, it wouldn't. In the political environment of the last half century, railing people against the PRP because "jobs", "better pay" "affordable housing", "maintaining our culture", and even, believe it or not "muh environment" has been just too darned racist. The Establishment can contain the people and even convince the stupid ones that all these problems are (somehow!) well worth it.

When their people are getting slaughtered and raped, they will get past being called names at some point. All the other very important reasons to limit immigration of strange foreigners pale in comparison. That's where we are now.

It's heartless to say it, I suppose, but, in the long run I think we ARE better off that the masses of immigrants are more violent. Serious resistance to the PRP can get started more readily, and momentum can be built until all this Globalist evil ends



* I could see Steve Sailer wanting to look into this with some good numbers, but to me, the biggest problem would be that they and Orientals, two large groups are put into the same stupid category, "Asian". Rightly, even most Moslems could be in that one, but I believe they may be broken out more in government data. In this case, for the violence factor, I suppose as long as you did leave out the Moslems, the term "Asian" may suffice.

DaiFuku, don't Ass/u/me anything

Hey, what are you tryin' to say, man?!



I saw a parked van with a DaiFuku logo on it. I don't want to assume anything, but are these Japanese corporate honchos trying to troll us, or what? I recall a story of an American car company naming a model with a word that meant "Impact" in Spanish. (Hard for me to figure out the story now backwards.) As we've noted before, though we concentrate largely on America, stupidity does not stop at the California coastline.



DaiFuku is a serious Big Business conglomerate of sorts, making various products (sorry, "providing solutions" in corp-speak) for airport baggage handling, clean rooms, car washes, other automation, and lots of other stuff. I don't laugh at Japanese manufacturing. However, though their corporate name should have customers salivating for that sweet, sweet red bean paste if they know Japanese, I do wonder how long they've been been doing business in America with a name that's basically "Die! Fuck you, America!"

I suppose someone ought to clue them in about this, but then, as with that hilarious T-shirt worn by a clueless Chinaman, perhaps we should let it ride a while longer.


PS: We've got plenty of more serious, interesting, and timely stuff to write about, but I may not be able to get to anything else till Wednesday evening.

Silver Threads and Golden Needles

  Music  The Dead

... cannot mend this economy of mine.

I'm sure this song has appeared on Peak Stupidity before, the Linda Ronstadt version that is. It was supposed to be at the bottom of the previous post.

Miss Ronstadt, back in her day, didn't need to worry her pretty little head about gold and silver, what with that hot bod and great voice of hers. It helped the music having the bands she had, that is, especially after the Eagles for a bit and the Stone Poneys. I really like the banging guitars by Waddy Wachtel. In this one, I think there'd be some of The Eagles, maybe J.D. Souther, but I can't tell one skinny long-haired '70s musician from another.



Silver Threads and Golden Needles, written by Dick Reynolds and Jack Rhodes, was first recorded by one Wanda Jackson in 1956. A whole bunch of artists played the song before Linda played her country-rock version in 1973 (off the album Don't Cry)*, and one of them was, you could have guessed it, The Grateful Dead. Whose songs HAVEN'T they covered?!

I thought at first this might have been a real rocker, with Jerry leads I can hear in my Dead head already. They could have done that, but now I remember that they played this song after Linda's, Wanda's, etc. country versions but BEFORE Miss Ronstadt's rocking version. It sounds like a very small venue, but it says on youtube this was recorded at the 2,700 seat Fillmore East** (Manhattan, NYC). I like it.



I feel a bit vindicated, as a commenter presenting the lyrics under this video also heard "... with a TV in every room." It's either "chill" or "tear", I dunno. My lyricosis has flared up again.

Thank you all for reading and especially for commenting here this blog-week. Have a happy Gold Festival or Centrum Silver weekend!


* She had released a more country version back in '69.

** Called the "Church of Rock & Roll", the place was only open as said church for 3 years, from March '68 to June '71. In that time, the Allman Brothers and the Dead, along with loads of other great bands, played there many a time and made many live recordings like this one.

Gold, Bitchez!!


Posted On: Saturday - October 18th 2025 8:57AM MST
In Topics: 
  Websites  Global Financial Stupidity  Economics  US Feral Government  Inflation



There's been a lot of talk about the fall of the dollar , errr, that is, rise of gold* lately, a LOT of talk. One can see why. This is neither the time nor place for "I told you so!"'s, but, still, I told you so, bitchez! What the chart above shows is that anyone concerned about his or others' finances understands how much inflation has been stealing our savings in other assets.

It's a long-term thing. People will "trade" gold back and forth for the usual get-rich-quick reasons, the serious financial guys talk about diversification and asset allocation, and now, lately for some it's "Don't miss out!" I haven't been concerned with any of that. Gold may stay low vs the US $ because people don't see what's going on for long periods then rocket up once there's lots of news, but, in the long run gold knows inflation. Inflation can't run, and it can't hide, well, maybe from the BLS, but not from gold.

The "Gold, Bitchez!" phrase was a regular classic in the comments section of the old ZeroHedge of a dozen years back. I had extra time on my hands, and because the site had perhaps only 10 posts daily then and fewer comments, I'd read through it all each day, for a period of over a year. ZH was more solely a financial news/opinion site then, with a focus on the pretty obvious (to the Tyler Durdens and commenters) coming financial crash due to "what can't go on, won't go on."

The arguments back and forth about real money were entertaining. I remember all the derision laid upon FED Chairman Ben Bernanke's statement that gold is a barbaric relic. I learned a lot - I LOLed a lot. My wife thought this ZH fixation was all a complete waste of my time** - it did distract me lots, but then, she's come around lately, and on other issues too.

Let me go back a decade from then, to just past the turn of the century. This was the first time I had any serious amount of money on me to save in the wisest manner. It was probably a page linked off the Lew Rockwell site on which I read a bit about real money. (A few years later, I read a whole book on what makes something "money" - I've tried to find it since, and all I learned was it sure wasn't this one!) On those old web pages, there was nothing I could find wrong with the arguments given. I had some thoughts about it ... and didn't get any gold.

Look at the chart above, and you'll see that, yes, I should be kicking myself. I could have obtained a couple of hundred barbaric relics and still had plenty left in the bank. I could have bought low and sold high, but no, that's not the point, as I'll get to. As it stood, I left the US dollars in the bank. After making one big mistake with stocks, I'd realized that sort of thing was not for me. However, leaving money in the bank making 6% was old school thinking, the kind that really had not been appropriate for my whole life and those of most readers.

Moving forward again to my ZH days, yes, I bought some gold at various prices. I can't remember if my wife did do that deal of circling her finger around her ear, but I doubt she'll be doing that now.

"OK, so you're ahead on your investment. Good job." people would tell me. "Now, you might wanna sell some and buy it back later after it goes down." NO. If you have your mind right about gold you understand that it's not about investing. You can indeed get 4,000 of those green pieces of paper with General Washington on them today and then maybe give someone 2,000 of them later for one. Nope, I've got n troy oz of real money now, and I'll have n troy oz of real money tomorrow. That's the point.

I'd have much rather backed up the truck (another old ZH expression) to a coin shop 25 years ago, surely. That's in the past. I'm not up for "buying" low, "selling" high. (The quotes are there because it's really the opposite - selling pieces of paper or digits and buying more later.) I'm not waiting for the "head and shoulders curve", "death cross", or whatever other crystal-graph-reading mumbo-jumbo the (NON)"Technical traders" discuss in their newsletters.

I don't WANT to be a trader. I have a job that has nothing to do with that. For well nigh a century - some would say about 55 years since the closing of the gold(backing) window, some 90 years since the Commie FDR attempted confiscation and re-jiggered the non-market "price", and others 112 since the creation of the FED - one couldn't simply save his money, his savings of his life of labor very simply, without it getting stolen. (Slowly, then likely quickly) Not many people alive could remember a time when it was wise to just plain hold onto one's savings.

One has had to have investments in stocks, bonds, funds, real estate etc. One has had to think about long-term capital gains taxes, timing the housing market, getting into that IRA or 401(k). Can you imagine buying a house simply because you want to live there and that's that? Can you imagine putting your money steadily into a bank account with real interest paid and being able to use it to buy things 20 years later of the same value it could before? (... and much more, because the point of interest is not to account for inflation, it's to pay you back the price of the use of your money for years and years.)

That's been hard to imagine since we haven't had sound money in America and the World. Some people, more and more as of late for some reason, have thought about this and realized that gold still has the best properties for use as real money. They are thinking harder now and maybe will think some more on Monday.

We do get long-winded here, so let me excerpt a short comment from one of the best, most common-sense, down-to-earth writers that has appeared on The Unz Review. That would be one Audacious Epigone who wrote the following*** in this thread 6 1/2 years ago:
Inflation requires people who have no business being financial speculators trying their hands at financial speculation anyway because the alternative is to have their savings depreciate over time. It’s ludicrous.
AGREED.

Back again to ZeroHedge, but in the modern day... as in yesterday:


Note the yellow rectangle saying that this post is for Premium ZH Members. Ha. I won't be joining up to read about gold being PUMMELED, PUMMELED, I tells ya', by 3%. Firstly, people tend to keep absolute numbers in their heads when relative numbers would fit better. Yes, in 2002 (OWW! Just kicked myself in the ass again.) a 200 dollar drop would be a big loss. Wait, no it wouldn't anyway, because had I 25 oz of gold at $350 and then 25 oz after it being really pummeled to $150, I'd still have... you got it... 25 oz of REAL MONEY.

Too bad I can't read THOSE comments...

... one more time for olde tyme's sake:
Gold, Bitchez!



*... and silver, and other precious metals too, but let me stick with discussion gold in this post. The same applies generally to silver, etc.

** She was driving an older semi-beater and wanted something newer. I told her I'd get her a good vehicle if the country was till in one piece by '15. It was, but then a couple of years went by still...

It's Alive!: German/Mali version and family tensions


Posted On: Friday - October 17th 2025 11:54AM MST
In Topics: 
  Immigration Stupidity  Music  Movies  Race/Genetics  Female Stupidity

Do they even make solid Horror Movies anymore? There was a certain horror movie made a half century ago entitled It's Alive!, during which one certain scene scared the livin' out of me.



Believe it or not, there was a poignant scene near the end of the Dad and his unexpectedly violent little baby boy. Radiation exposure, chemicals, whatever it was that did it, this was still his baby boy. One can adopt instead. Then, you can avoid the above sorts of problems, but others may crop up when you raise who's not just not your flesh and blood, but often not even "your people" whatsoever.

Adoption is not nearly as big a thing as it was before abortion. I was still surprised to find that ('21 data) White children were still a majority of children adopted in America (~27,000 White vs. ~23,000 rest). Americans have been very tolerant and welcoming over the years, and that I saw many couples visiting China about 18 years back for the purpose of adopting unwanted Chinese babies is an example.

Google's AI wasn't able to didn't want to provide information on races of races of adoptees in Germany*. I wanted to know due to my learning of this story:



She is Frau Iris Stalzer, 57 y/o Mayor-elect of Herdecke, Germany. This North Rhine-Westphalia town of 20-odd thousand people sits on the Ruhr River, south of Dortmund. Going back 5 years, so this may not be completely indicative, of the 11 1/2 thousand votes for City Council there, 500 of them went for the AfD. Just sayin'...

Just as a sample of the news, per UPI, Recovering German mayor-elect says her daughter was knife attacker. "Recovering, hell." Regaining her consciousness, enough to tell the cops what happened is not exactly recovering. Her 17 y/o adopted daughter stabbed her with a knife in each hand (gun control, and all... you know...) in the back and stomach 13 times ... oh, and tortured her first.



Even in It's Alive, the poor parents wanted to cover for their "little one". I can't imagine this Mom would be lying to incriminate her daughter. (Plus, evidence.) The small town of Herdecke is said to be "in shock" , but I'd not be so shocked myself had I already known that this adopted kid had been in trouble a dozen times or so before for violent acts. Oh, I forgot to mention - this adopted daughter is from Mali. Her younger brother (15 y/o) is from Haiti. Speaking of shock:
On Tuesday, the German SPD stated its party members were in a state of deep shock about the election. A rise in right-wing and anti-Semitic crimes in Germany in recent years included several deaths, including conservative politician Walter Lubcke.
It's shocking that this heinous act wasn't "more" of that political far-right wing violence committed by people who HATE foreigners, such as cute young babies from... Haiti, Mali.... wait ...

Helluva world when a Haitian boy in Germany is a veritable Alter Boy compared to his Malian sister.

Let me get back to the adoption of these strange foreigners by a German woman to begin with. There's not very much on Mrs. Stalzer's wiki page, where I wanted to get a little bio. info. She' married, but I don't know for how long. If not so long (not much longer than the age of her adopted children), was this a case of "I never found just the right man" and then her being too old to have her own? She'd have been coming up on 40. If she had been married longer, perhaps her having to adopt was due to fertility problems for the couple.

Could the Stalzer's not have adopted any White kids, Orientals, ANYTHING but Haitians and Malians? There are two factors one would expect from a Globalist/lefty though. The first would be that virtual signaling. We all have seen and discussed that. However, secondly, people with strong beliefs like this may want to actually prove it. "I CAN raise any kid from anywhere in the world - I'll pick the worst to prove my point - into a great human being. Hell, I'll try 2 of 'em!" She's now recovering...

I would not wish anything but a solid recovery from the severe trauma Mrs. Stalzer has been subject to, or subjected herself to, no matter what her political views. Let's hope, though, that those views may change somewhat during her time in the hospital and home getting her body back to a semblance of normality. People like her cause problems not just for themselves but for all of Germany and the West.

Will the AfD get more than 500 votes in the next City Council vote in Herdecke?

The German Chancellor, Mr. Merz, gave his thoughts on this case of "domestic tension":
My thoughts are with her family and loved ones.
No, see, her "loved ones" are the problem! You people encourage more and more millions of these domestic tensioners to live in Germany. Your thoughts should go in that direction.

The violent 17 y/o girl from Mali will go free cause... her Mom didn't die?** Just a little case of Domestic Tension... reminding me of a Kinks song. I really like this live album One for the Road that my friend gave me on CD years back. It was a great introduction to The Kinks above and beyond the tired few radio cuts. The song is called National Health:



Nervous tension, man's invention.
It's the biggest killer that's around today.
Let the tension out, or it will build and build inside
and strike you down some day.




* I didn't have luck with the regular search results either yet.

** We got into a good discussion about attempted murder in regard to that of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh recently. Interesting stuff, but, you gotta put this nutcase away!

Aye, Caramba! Esta ¡¡La Nina!!

  TV, aka Gov't Media  Humor  Global Climate Stupidity

No, this is not a Foodie post. You're thinking El Pollo Loco... hey, what happened to that fast-food chain? I liked that Crazy Chicken. This is not a movie review of one of those 1970's horror movies, here on Peak Stupidity - Hispanic either. Neither is this another post about Trump and sombreros, nor about Epstein's Fantasy Island*, nor even another Telenovela feature.

La Nina is a climate phenomenon, the opposing situation of the perhaps-more-familiar, El Nino!!

Somehow I had a picture in my head of that term being said by David Letterman, with at least 2 exclamation points, maybe even some upside down ones. Ha, I came up with the following - from the looks of him and the banter, this must have been near the end... no, not of The Planet, but of the Dave Letterman Late Show.** The youtube United Nations (WTH?) description is the funniest thing due to its abject seriousness, Paul Shaffer is pretty good, and at least stick around till 02:30, as the 4th question to Mr. El Nino, aka Gerald Mulligan, cracked me up.



Where the heck were we? OK, as much as Peak Stupidity agrees with Bad Orange Climate Man that the Climate Calamity™ is indeed the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world, we understand that some medium-term Farmers' Almanac scale climate phenomena can at least be somewhat understood and used for vague predictions. That's the case with El Nino and La Nina. They are not weather phenomena, as in a cold front passing through tomorrow sure to cause a big wind shift, thunderstorms, and, well, yeah, colder temperatures - and they are not global climate predictions, you know, the stuff that has never accurately predicted El Jack Squat - they are multi-month phenomena.

La Nina refers to the temperature in the central and eastern Equitorial Pacific Ocean (a YUGE area) being on the low side. This is said to cause colder than average temperatures and more precip - snow, we mean, cause, Winter - in the northwestern and northern US and warmer than average temperatures, dryer air, and less precip elsewhere. El Nino is the opposite, but per The Epoch Times as related by ZeroHedge, we'll get the former this Winter, but still with only a 25% chance of this phenomena being very significant: La Nina Is Here - Here's What It Could Mean For Winter In US.***

Somewhere buried in a number of our posts with the Global Climate Stupidity topic key, we've noted that Climate Alarmists have never replied to me on the question of "Are El Nino and La Nino being INPUT to the climate models or are they the OUTPUT of these purported models?" I mean, if you don't see it coming until you already have those Pacific Ocean temperature measurements, you can't exactly have it as an input. If it's an output of the models, why can't you tell us this long before the Climate Prediction Center does, like, this very Fall beforehand?

This kind of Climatology is real and sane. I enjoy learning about it. These Climate guys don't claim knowledge they don't have, but they predict as much as they respectably can, so I respect this type of work.

Yet, still, It's usually fun to check out the ZeroHedge comments. I haven't read them all****, but here are some good ones:
User262626:

Where I live, the leaves are experiencing such intense anxiety that they are turning yellow, red, and brown and then falling off of the trees. Does no one care? Shouldn't we give the trees a safe space where they don't have to experience such shifts in their mental health?
Enlightened1:

That idiot Noah built an ark when he could have simply paid more taxes to avoid climate change.
As a retort:
Oxygen Likes Carbon:

It was a ****ty cruise, rained a lot, but they had a great buffet. I had two of everything.
Same guy:

La Niña is the trans version of El Niño (after the surgery, which was done in Mexico)
Pure Blooded:

Fake news, Al Gore told me snow is a thing of the past in this warming world. Looking out my window at the snow in the mountains here is Utah is nothing more than a glitch in the matrix.
Climate Denier:

Weather forecast this is the only profession where they are wrong 90% of the time and considered still a expert
OK, not as funny as Paul Shaffer...



* O/T of this post, but I noticed I missed, OK, had forgotten about, a big post from late '21 about the whole Epstein thing, the one linked-to above, when I wrote the more recent one, Jeff Epstein's Fantasy Island: clients, personnel, and the point last Summer.

** Just found it, '07, but, yes, there's a Donald Trump joke..

*** Yes, I even took off ZH's accent marks. Sorry, this is America. That's how we roll, and we don't roll our "rrrrr"s.

*** That's just another great thing about The Unz Review comments - you know how many are there. These types, with the uncertainly-ending [MORE] links, don't. I could be on one of these threads all night, so I have to call it, randomly.

Not done avoiding uncomfortable truths in the UK


Posted On: Tuesday - October 14th 2025 9:03PM MST

  Immigration Stupidity  Pundits  Race/Genetics  World Political Stupidity

I ran into the video below on Instapundit today. After checking it out for a few minutes, with the intro by Megyn Kelly (who's got her own off-Broadway TV show I hear tell), I had to pause for something... but was looking forward to hearing the rest of this Will Kingston's report on the goings on in the UK after years of Moslem Population Replacement.

"Irrevocable" is the word pundit Kelly used to describe how far Islam has spread in the UK. Mr. Kingston made a statement I've heard elsewhere (plenty of times on The Unz Review, by commenter AnotherDad and others) that this Islamic invasion (or any of masses of foreigners, IMO) is worse than mere bad economic problems. The latter can be fixed in some way, but the former may be indeed, I'd say irreversible, instead.

Mr. Kingston was likely on the show because he made big news with a rant of his about the murder and maiming of some Jews in an incident in the UK that I'd heard about briefly. Megyn Kelly showed a clips of that - I don't disagree with him, though I do see the idea of making bigger news due to it being Jewish people killed rather than plain old British blokes. To me, the idea is that then you'll get people that influence policy in the Western World to perhaps back off on this "Diversity is our Strength". "Ya' see?!" It helps too that they are the eternal enemy of Islam, it seems.

His rant was themed, if I may, "I'm done...":
I'm done with the euphemisms. I'm done with the crocodile tears. I'm done with the calls for unity. I'm done being told not to hate. I'm done skirting around uncomfortable truths.
Then he described the problems that stem from multiculturalism, and not from Yorkshire men or Irishmen either. He's right that Islam does not belong in the Western World. He even brought up the stupidity of the Foodies. That was a good point that you don't hear enough.

He didn't mince words in that rant. Great. After the clip of Mr. Kingston's viral rant, the two conversed again, and Megyn said "This [Islam] is a 3rd rail, one you're not allowed to touch... ". Fine. Then I got to 5 1/2 minutes in. As Mr. Kingston discussed the left's methods to shut down criticism of islam, he went off the rails himself. You may want to watch it first, as I'll not transcribe all of this disappointing nonsense. He then tried to distinguish between Islamic culture and that nasty word "race" that the left has been calling those critics of Islam like himself. "Race should be something that should be off limits in terms of criticism. We know that. This isn't controversial stuff." [CLICK]



The remote control doesn't work on youtube on my computer, but that was my reaction. What a cuck! Talk about race most certainly IS controversial stuff, and that's where the big "uncomfortable truths" lie. Will Kingston is not comfortable with the truth about race. Islam is NOT just a culture. With exceptions the people who practice it are of races we'd rather not deal with in the West. In the UK, they are definitely not exceptions, these Pakistanis. (They are a majority of who Brits call "Asians", and they are the Moslem base.)

Even in the big protest marches, such as reported on Peak Stupidity in Summer '24 - England Burning: Enough is Enough!*, you'd see most of the protesters being like this:
Everyone is angry, and rightly so. However, even in that anger there are a number of cucks seen - or just so beaten down from years of PC that they can't get themselves to say more. "No, it's not about race or color."
You want the truth? Sorry, Will Kingson, but You can't handle the truth! You're not yet done.

I don't know how they expect to fix their problems if they can't get down to the truth of the matter. We seem to be doing better here lately...

Feel free to watch the rest of the video above, of course, but I stopped it at 6 minutes, because I'm done with this guy.

Meet the new Pope... same as the old Pope..

  Commies  Immigration Stupidity  Lefty MegaStupidity  Trump  Bible/Religion  So-called Pope Francis

... and the Bulls are getting deeper overnight.



Peak Stupidity was just guessing back in May, but it seems that we were right about this American-born Pope Leo XIV they got up there in the Vatican City. He was born in Chicago, but he spent half his life down in Peru on what I suppose was a Liberation Theology Apprenticeship.

It's not my day lifetime to keep up with this guy, but I read the following on The Gateway Pundit: Pope Leo Offers Another Jibe at Trump Over Deportations — Urges Catholics to Embrace Open Borders Under ‘New Missionary Age’. Well, you'll hear plenty of verbal jibes at President Trump, even on this very site. However, when it's from a foreigner criticizing America's progress on Job #1, you know he's just another Globalist piece of garbage.

No matter what else you think of him, Trump is no Globalist. The Globalists/Commies are very upset that their plans for the PRP and other evil are being greatly impeded by this guy and his MAGA crowd. Pope Leo is getting upset:
Speaking in front of thousands of pilgrims at St. Peter’s Square on Sunday, Leo warned that migrants must not be treated with “the coldness of indifference or the stigma of discrimination.”

Without singling out any country in particular, Leo said that Catholics should “open our arms and hearts to them, welcoming them as brothers and sisters, and being for them a presence of consolation and hope.”
So, am I to take it that calling in an ICE raid at the Church picnic is out of the question?

Anyway, America is not a Catholic country. and neither is the UK, with their risings going on, Germany, with its AfD, and Trump is not either, so lighten up, Francis errr, Leo now. Watch where you point that Papal finger. You've got 3 more fingers pointing back at you, yeah...*

Here's where he's just making it up as he goes along:
Leo explained that the church was living through a “new missionary age” that tasked its members with providing “hospitality and welcome, compassion and solidarity” to migrants coming to the West.
I've been reading through Acts. That was one hell of a road trip by Paul and his various riders, Sylas, Barnabas, and other of the first Christian missionaries. They went everywhere, man, getting around more and getting in more trouble than a 1960s motorcycle gang. That's what missionaries do.

What missionaries DON'T do is invite strange non-believers into their own countries to preach to. Where is that written, anywhere in The Bible, Pope Leo?

I figured I'd go to the real expert on these matters, so I took a look at Ann Barnhardt's site for the first time in a while. As I figured, she's not all too fired up about this guy either, same as with the old so-called Pope. "slackjawed, mouth-breathing, demon-worshipping Antipope" is how she deftly puts it. In this same post, she wrote something nearly the same as she did some years ago, but I again enjoyed Miss Barnhardt's take on "Blessed are the poor in spirit."**

It's not just the immigration stupidity that Pope Leo has a problem with, but he seems to always get back to The Programme:
“Someone who says I’m against abortion but says I’m in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life,” he explained.
I guess that nixes pretty much the whole of the Old Testament there. I don't think the New Testament particularly agrees either.
”So someone who says, I’m against abortion, but I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don’t know if that’s pro-life.”
I don't know either, Leo. That means it's not pro-life to take someone to prison for say, breaking-and-entering/home invasion either I guess. It's so inhumane... same as sending people back to their home countries on airplanes... I guess... but I don't know... Perhaps if you don't know these things, you should stifle yourself about Trump's great efforts to make America back into a, dare I say, more humane place again.

You think you got a guy from the Chicago School, may know a little bit about things, but it turns out Pope Leo was from the Chiclayo School. It's different down there. Rather than Milton Freeman and free-market principles, the dope of a Pope studied Liberation Theology. That's the religion of Communists.



* If you didn't get the Who musical reference, I don't expect anything out of you on this one either, haha. (Dire Straits, in Solid Rock, from Making Movies.)

** I don't see comments on her site, so I'll put my disagreement on this one point right here:
I’m a huge fan of punctuation. Especially properly-utilized apostrophes. But I’m also a fan of ellipses and the humble comma.

“Let’s eat Grandma!” or, “Let’s eat, Grandma!”
PUNCTUATION. SAVES. LIVES.

I think that we can understand the First Beatitude with far more ease if we slip a set of “here comes the kicker pregnant pause” ellipses in between the subject, “the poor”, and the prepositional phrase, “in spirit.” Thus:

Blessed are the poor . . . in spirit.
I like dashes myself, Should it not be "Blessed are the poor-in-spirit"?

The biggest possible University Bubble pin prick


Posted On: Friday - October 10th 2025 9:07PM MST

  University  Trump  Economics  US Feral Government

A pin prick usually refers to something causing very minor harm, but that's not the case when that pin pricks and pops a big bubble. It seemed as if I were missing something as I wrote the post the past May University Bubble Housing. How would this bubble of fancy-living college students more and more yearly, livin' large on American taxpayer-backed loans be popped?



We thought about (with much more on each in that old post):

1) College student age population - steadily decreasing, but not at any. high rate.

2) The financial burden of student loans - how long would students and parents want to keep getting into near-mortgage-sized debt, most with not much advantage in life to show for it?

3) The point of going to college - this goes along with (2), but even with the big student loan money burden notwithstanding.

As is the case on Peak Stupidity, we've had some good thoughtful comments under Wednesday's (our most recent) post, with the first of 4 (updated) updates, on this U-Bubble, resulting in discussion. This led me to remember that I left something out in that post from May. Here's possible pin prick #4, and I think this one could pop the living daylights out of the U-Bubble.

4) Trump. - OK, that's the abbreviated heading for this. What if the Feral Gov't dropped the loan guarantees and direct loans to university students? As with all kinds of welfare (and anything non-free-market like this is a form of welfare), a big feature for those involved, and a bug for the rest of us, is its inability to be reversed without PAIN, lots of financial pain. Oh, and there will be turmoil too.

Could a President just do this, first of all? Can he? This student loan business just so happens to have had.a SCROTUS case recently decided in regards. Can a President legally forgive a portion of these loans on his own... you know, to help string students along for votes, if nothing else... you don't really have to do it? SCROTUS said 6-3 In June of '24 in Brandon v Nebraska:
... that the Secretary of Education did not have the power to waive student loans under the HEROES* Act.
Well, Brandon tried to forgive the loans anyway... wait, actually, does the SCROTUS have jurisdiction over automatic pens? See, there's another case for ya', guys and gals of the highest court... Peak Stupidity may even turn in an Amicus Brief on behalf of the pens. The Constitution doesn't say anything about pens, but hell, it was written in pen.

Well, Trump is our new King. It's more likely he and his DOGE committee or the like would make an effort to cancel this whole moral hazard of a shebang than anyone else I can think of.

I go back to my college days and remember that maybe 1 in 3 or 5 students I'd talk to had ANY loan taken out (with med students being a big exception- most had to borrow in the 10's of thousands). Those that did have loans had perhaps half of tuition and dorm room rent borrowed - the frugal ones lived at home. That tuition was so much lower though, 1/5 to 1/10 of the current amount.

As we discussed in the comments mentioned, the students live large today. Looking back, it was not like this. Our State government ponied up what the students' very reasonable tuition payments didn't cover.** Imagine this, the State working to better the population of (mostly) State residents. That was the idea, it occurred to me, or likely somebody explained. It was good for our State to have more educated people (when it meant something), more engineers for local manufacturing industry, more doctors to serve the people, and so on.

Just to confirm I'm not just making this stuff up, I found this paper that describes decreases in State funding. (It was someone at the Univ. of S. Carolina's senior thesis - Good on her.)
State funding has decreased on average by 40.2% between 1980 and 2011.*** While two states (Wyoming and North Dakota) have increased or maintained their portion of funding, the remaining forty-eight states have cut their funding by 14.8 to 69.4%.
Besides that our State government funding is peanuts compared to Big Fed, I can see why the legislature doesn't want so much to do with higher ed now. Why spend our State's money to educate mostly foreigners in the grad schools and loads of undergrads too? How exactly does that benefit our State?

The Federal funding is indirect. It's the complete availability of big student loans that allows the U's to increase tuition ("We'll make sure your daughter ..." - 60% chance it's a daughter - ".. can borrow enough to pay for everything." - Student Financial Aid office) to the sky to allow for the fancy campus living. (Let's not forget the D.I.E. offices and all that "necessary" overhead.)

If this loan money were cut off, say, with no backing of private loans either such that risks of payback were taken into account as back in the day, there would be a CRASH like we've never seen. If you couldn't afford it, your kid couldn't attend college - what a concept. There'd be tremendous pressure to lower tuition, so that more could attend. This would mean the cutting of the huge administrative overhead along with all the fancy dorms, gyms, pools, the works. It'd be very hard for the U's to go back to frugality and serving good students and their own States - to paraphrase a certain political candidate from yesteryear, we'd hear a giant popping sound.

In the long run, the popping of this bubble would be for the best. Even in the short run, these examples of the Long March of Communism through the American Institutions deserve to suffer. For those housing developers who started Peak Stupidity writing about the this subject lately, sorry, but we coulda' told you. Maybe go with Section 8.


* HEROES, OMG! Ferris Bueller Women's Studies majors - you're my heroes!

** I can remember a number of times there being some minor protests or campaigns to get the legislature to come up with more of State taxpayers' dough or at least not make a planned cut.

*** I gotta assume this is in nominal dollars, so after taking inflation over those 31 years into account, the drop is far more than 40%.

Stupidity Updates (4)


Posted On: Wednesday - October 8th 2025 6:04PM MST
In Topics: 
  General Stupidity  TV, aka Gov't Media  University  Cars  Economics  Artificial Stupidity

None of these items is worth writing a post about. However, I like to add any new information to whatever story I started, but any updates of old post would be a waste of time I think.


1) MOAR student housing!:



In University Bubble Housing we discussed a huge new housing complex, with (I just looked it up for more recent info) over 900 bedrooms. (The apartments average to 3 bedrooms.) Will the University Bubble pop, for various reasons? Will it be like a Bazooka Joe gum bubble popping or more like a big balloon?

I don't know, but some stupid (with a flare gun?)* has quickly been putting up another complex nearby. It's going to be roughly 1/3 of the size of the one described before, due to land area - I guess there's a limit of 5-6 stories - lots of these types of buildings are that high, and they look exactly the same. This one has a more aggressive timetable, and from what I've seen, they are sticking to it. Better sell out these apartments before POP!!

The mentality of the developer must be the same as that of the general housing bubble promoters of 20 years back. "The students keep coming." is the new "It always goes up."


2) Artificial auto stupidity:



While musing upon this housing "development", no double meaning originally intended, I was trying to get off the line at the stoplight. (No, not on a scooter this time . I kid - that wasn't me.) The car in front wouldn't move easily, but we've got our share of grannie drivers here. (Some are, in fact, 40 y/o men with pickup trucks.) Then it moved a few feet, but even getting off the gas was going to have me rear-end this vehicle. After another couple of seconds it moved some more... ahhh, it got going.

I refrained from using the horn - this is not Boston, and we are not ALL Massholes here. When I ended up next to the driver at the next stop light, I had my windows down and yelled, "hey, asshole!" heard his starter crank on, then crank again... as he was rolling! This was a problem with his fuel saving system of Artificial Stupidity called start/stop technology. This is not good.

We had our own potentially dangerous problem with our Korea-mobile, fixed via nice but of diagnosis by a good mechanic and a new crank position sensor. For this guy's sake, hopefully he can pull out just that one electronic module responsible and throw it in the fireplace. Yeah, I know... heavy metal fumes... yeah, but well worth it for the satisfaction gained.


3) The Idiot Plate wins:



We've told the story of trying to avoid the TV (called the "Idiot Plate" around these parts, with "tubes" no longer in use) in the auto parts store, in the doc's waiting room, at the gyms ... many such cases...

They are getting more wily, or I'm just getting more stupid, the people that set up the hotel gyms, that is. I've looked for the remote all over the place, but I can normally resort to the power plug. Of course, if there's someone else in there, I'll ask first if he's watching. Usually, nobody is, and usually nobody's in there.

The latter was the case. This thing was high up and tight against the wall, not too loud thankfully, but I wanted no part of it. I did find the remote control, but though an LED lit up to show it was allegedly sending signals, the TV would not turn off that way. I reached up, tried to get a hand in to get to the plug but, all that training at the gyms was to no avail. I was defeated by the idiot plate for the first time. Well played, TV installers, well played.


4) Ambulance Chasing:

No lawyering here... it was the ambulance chasing ME!



Peak Stupidity has ranted before on this subject, basically wondering out loud Are Senior Citizens DRIVING ambulances now?. That wasn't the first post either - see here and here.

I had this post update in my head as soon as I (FINALLY) saw the ambulance in my rear view mirror. Here I was following my friend who was riding a Vespa scooter**. I heard a siren. I assume others did, but nobody much seemed to care. I can't blame 'em now.

The ambulance was loud even at a quarter mile back or so. I was in the right lane of a 4-lane anyway, but I started to pull over. Nope, that wouldn't do. The 1st Responder wasn't close enough, and I'd be there forever near the side of the road blocking other traffic. I'd wait until he got closer. He didn't really. I had slowed down to below the (assumed) 40 mph speed limit on this wide-open city road, but well, I figured I'd switch it up, so I gunned it and drove 50 mph. At that speed, I left the ambulance in the dust and my scooter driving friend had nearly lost me!

I know they have rules, but they didn't used to drive like grannies. I hope the patient made it to the hospital alive. For me, knock on wood, I'd be OK with paying the 50 Large for a 5 minute ride on the Jet Ranger.


* These really old musical references are gonna be the death of this blog...

** No, weirdly that is not indicative of his being a drunk driver. This guy has a need to have every motorized thing there ever was on wheels, and yes, this includes ice cream trucks. (Work in progress.)

It's a family tradition

Don't ask me, "Mod, why do you drink?"
"Why do you roll smoke?"
"Why must you live out the posts that you wrote?"


This post describes the 2nd phrase of the proposed bumper sticker "Think Nationally, Act Locally". It went like this:

Well, not quite as successful:



At church on a recent Sunday, one of the "elders" - not actually very old - made a reminder announcement about a coming activity at a local park. Keep in mind first that, as compared to the many people of that church who aren't, this guy is a decent Conservative. We've talked to him about this and that... He is a blue-collar type - he used to drive a wrecker. I'm positive he likes Trump... vs. the recent alternatives, that is.

It so happened that this picnic would be a time for church members to attempt to spread the Gospel to some new members of the community... uhhh, you're not gonna believe this, Chief, but to Afghan refugees. Thankfully, we don't have many of them in our area - these are the first I'd specifically heard about. They are Moslems, you understand. Did the Church committee who arranged this understand this?

Yes, they did. The idea was for this to be a great challenge. "They separate men from women, so we'll have to have some men talk with the men, and... " "They are on Afghan time... ", said this guy pretty honestly, "... so, they might come at 5, maybe 6... stick around."

It's just barely possible that a couple of the young people who might know more English may at least read a tract rather than throw it out, being there for the free food from "these suckers" (See, you're not gonna catch that unless you speak speak Afghan(?)) I mean, except no pork, and this is a pork-loving crowd too.

No, we wouldn't be attending. However, as I've written before, I wouldn't speak up, especially in church against any such... stupidity, I gotta say, to begin with, but my wife would get embarrassed had I even spoke up at the zoo that time. It wasn't the time and place for an argument.

This is the good part: On the way home, my wife told me that she was going to call ICE to raid this picnic! Haha, so she does get it. Things rub off after some years, though I hesitate to say "I told you so" because that plain doesn't work on women. Well, that was a great thought of hers, but I informed her, as much as this refugee business is a complete racket, and, yeah, more Afghans will decrease Christianity here and increase Islam, they are officially here legally.

I say "officially" because over the last few years Dark Brandon and his minions made millions of potentially illegal entrants officially legal by letting them sign up for "asylum" on an app from the outside. They then could use a piece of paper, with a strong reminder to come to a hearing in a year or two, to travel and settle within America. Sure, they would. I saw some of this myself and caused a bit of trouble about it.

As much as I was very pleased at my wife's attitude, I didn't see anything coming of this. A couple of days before the picnic, though, she told me that she had gone onto an anonymous online ICE form* and filed a request to have the picnic raided. After all, we knew the date and time - it was all in the church bulletin. She just got a standard email back saying that they try to get to what they can but are kind of swamped right now.

I've looked around the web for some blurb about an ICE raid at a certain park, but no, I guess this wasn't the best use of ICE resources. Still, it was an unexpected very nice thought from my wife, who does get it.

This church and almost ALL churches don't. Yeah, keep on being nice and trying to win others over, it's what we are instructed to do, but at the expense of giving away your nation? How exactly will anybody worship if Islam grows big and Sharia Law comes?

Oh, and about the pork. That was pure cuckery there, telling people not to bring pork dishes. I would think the smell of good BBQ might actually win over a convert or two...

Stop and think it over.
Put yourself in our position.
If we call ICE and blog all night long,
it's a family tradition.

"Think Nationally, Act Locally" bumper stickers should be issued...


Posted On: Monday - October 6th 2025 11:40AM MST
In Topics: 
  Immigration Stupidity  Trump  Globalists  Race/Genetics  ctrl-left

The blogger said, "Think Nationally, Act Locally" bumper stickers should be issued. All in favor of what he said, signify by saying 'aye'.... if, however, you are opposed... Don't mind me, this goes way, way back.

You also have to go a ways back to remember the Think Globally, Act Locally bumper stickers that used to adorn... I don't know, mostly Volvo station wagons. Those people driving around with the stickers weren't Globalists in the Peak Stupidity and generally current sense of the term. They just wanted to save the environment for the World, have Whirled Peas , that'd be World Peace, freedom, and all that. What's so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding? Cool-kid Elvis aside, we'll get to that later..

However, those behind the whole ideological campaign, including the issuance of the bumper stickers, were the types we're dealing with now. The only World Peace we'll get will be under the thumb of the "Eat Zee Bugs" and "Own Nothing" crowd, led by the Kier Starmers and George Soroses. They are the Globalists. Most of us don't think like them.

This guy sure doesn't. He's most assuredly not a Globalist:



If this happens, it's above and beyond what ANY of us immigration patriot MAGA types expected. Now, OK, we harped last time around on "You've got to codify it into law, ya' big dummy! Otherwise, the next guy will flip it right back around." We were right, and the next guy DID. It was ghastly and disastrous, and most of what President Trump has been bragging about is just trying to reverse the damage from those 4 years. However, as another post will have to get into, what has the Legislative Branch ever done for us?! Those guys don't seem to matter much right now. Trump is getting things done the only way that is working out.

He's the Administrator of the Federal Government. Yeah, the H1B Visa program is specified by law. However, the Administrator has every right to ... tweak the numbers a bit... just tweaking that nominal Indentured Servitude fee a bit higher to help administer the program. The same goes for this latest change to refugee acceptance numbers. Just tweak 'em a bit, turn the knob down... administrative housekeeping, that's all... from 125,000 to 7,500... if you're not a math guy, as Trump isn't, you don't calculate this trivia... that the rate of bringing in highly foreign bogus refugees is ... shhhhh ..., oh, 6% of the previous rate. Housekeeping... the bean counters gave me a number - I just run the place.

Well, listen, if the red-squad of the UniParty-run Congress won't get off its collective ass on these matters ... BTW, Trump-45 made some good efforts on this same iimmigration-invasion policy too, as related here in President Donald Trump: the Bad, **the Good**, and the Ugly. That post is from 5 years ago next week.

If it does come to 7,500 White (South)Afrikaner actual refugees from Black! persecution being let in, that's not any significant number* - probably still under a percent of people permanently entering the US annually via various means, but it's VERY symbolic. The reduction in the refugee racket by 94% is MORE THAN symbolic - that's a significant number, and it's important.

Instead of our usual disclaimer about the man (well just a bit), though we often can't stand the Reality-TV BSing and annoyances, and we wish often a Ron DeSantis or Ron Paul were up in there, I really don't believe either of them would go this far. That is, not so much with the numbers, but with putting this anti-foreigner, pro-White move right in the faces of the ctrl-left. What can the ctrl-left do with their bitching? It just won't work well.

Are there so many American that would agree with the ctrl-left that "Yeah, we need MOAR strange foreigners! We can't do without lots of refugees." That's what they're having to argue now (with their PRP goals left unsaid). It's Trump himself who made the effort to point out the persecution of White people in S. Africa, and right in front of the President of the place to boot! Who else would have done that? After seeing that, I think most White Americans now have more knowledge about the goings on in S. Africa. Yet Trump has put the ctrl-left into the very clear position of having to argue simply "No White people allowed!"

It's time to give this guy some credit. Those who claim "controlled opposition" or even the slightly less crazy idea that Trump really is part of the Establishment and doesn't care about us really aren't thinking this through. Were he going through the motions, he could have long ago stopped with "Well, Judge ABC in the nth circuit has blocked this, so we'll try something else" and "I've brought illegal immigration down by 25%, so... please clap..."

Trump is a Nationalist, and one might say a pro-(White) Nationalist (gasp!). It's true that he's not enough of a calm, detail-oriented guy to make efforts without having talked to been talked to by the good guys he's got working with him now, that is, BEFORE and AFTER some other guy talks to him and ruins it.

What about the "Act Locally" part? Oh, that's a great story! It'll have to wait for the next post - this was getting too long.


PS: I got the tweet screenshotted above off The GateWay Pundit so thanks, GP's Ben Kew, for REPORT: Trump Planning to Slash Refugee Admissions to 7,500 Annually — Most Spaces Reserved For Persecuted White South Africans.


*. Also, it's a only 0.15% of the number of White people still in South Africa. I doubt all want to leave anyway. What a complete disaster, completely of the West's doing, it was to turn the place over to black rule and possibly soon abandon the whole civilizational project after 4 centuries. Africa Wins, they'll tell you.

Per the GP article linked to in the post-script, are only 197 Afrikaner refugees who have actually arrived here so far.

Taking traffic signaling devices too literally

Traffic Signal A Head



Oddity Central reported in late September Man Gets Head Stuck in Traffic Light After Crashing into It. In the excerpt below, I stripped out location information to protect this individual from embarrassment, but I'll include it later.
... a young man driving an electric scooter crashed into a temporary traffic light.... Following the impact, the man’s head somehow became stuck inside the traffic light, and firefighters were called to free him from the unusual cage. That was easier said than done, however, as even the first responders spent around 40 minutes cutting away at the metal casing to safely release the man’s head. The man was then taken to a local hospital and made a full recovery,
That yellow-painted pole had to have been vertical with the light on top, but then how would the guy's scooter not have knocked it over first? How did his head get in there? Maybe he hit something on the road first and flew off his scooter head first into the signaling device.

I'm overthinking this one. No matter, these things should be placed out of the way, so I'd be seeing red too right now if I had my head stuck in one for 40 minutes. Who green-lighted the project to begin with? Cops were not mentioned in this story, and after what this guy had been through it'd have been heartless to ticket him. Still, as a cop would tell you, he did blow right through that red light - 4 points!

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. This incident happened in Chengdu, China. The man was Chinese. So, listen, after reading this, I don't want to hear a thing from ANY Chinese person EVER again about stupidity in America!

A song came to mind.

Friday night, I'm going nowhere.
All the lights are changing, green to red.




Saturday, I'm running wild,
and all the lights are changing, red to green.


That's Babylon by British musician David Grey from 1999. It's the only song I know by him. For some reason I liked it much better back in that day. Maybe that's because this is the first time I'd seen the video, which is not so good. It took out what the song was about from my imagination. It's got a good melody though.

That's it. More stupidity is coming Monday.

Stupidity v Evil: Some men ya' just cain't reach...

It's been nearly a month since I felt a need to write this post. Why bother bashing one of our favorite writer/pundits, Steve Sailer, that would be? It's probably because I do think he's a smart guy and great writer and that I've learned a lot from him over the last decade of reading his stuff. (Now here, formerly here, though he'd had 2 more online venues prior.) I can't get over that I've run into something major on which I strongly disagree with him.



On Mr. Sailer's substack site back in early September, I saw Why Did the Anglosphere Go Hog Wild Over Immigration? Here's the subtitle in case you can't read it in the screenshot: After Covid, English-speaking nations tended to go nuts over immigrants. How come?

How come?! How do you not notice(©) that people are evil and are bent on destruction?
Perhaps there were economic theories about how to deal with post Covid adjustments behind the splurge?

But keep in mind that the After Covid years were also the After Trump and After George Floyd years. Anti-Racism became the highest priority, and what is more racist than white people trying to keep their country white? Trump’s defeat in 2020 just showed that Goodness was prevailing.

Beyond that gut feeling, the Biden Administration didn't seem to have a well-worked out rationalization for letting in so many immigrants. Instead, they just seemed to feel that it was racist and Trump-like to try hard to keep immigrants out. And then they got surprised when they eased off border enforcement at how many migrants swarmed in, including from places that had sent very few migrants before.

So, in America, the best answer is the Biden Administration wasn’t thinking.
You've GOT to be kidding me, Steve Sailer! After all this time and the actions – the immigrant invasion (“Asylum”) apps, the flying in of foreigners in the middle of the night on US-based airlines (I witnessed some of this – actually, in broad daylight), and all that, you think still that this was incompetence and stupidity?

As the guy with (no, no, none of that!) the Deep State behind him said when he was lucid, “C’mon, man!”

Steve Sailer’s assumption is that nobody is evil, just stupid. As the guy who runs this website, I should agree, but I don’t. There is no paywall on this one, so I figured the comments ought to be lit. However, most commenters there are "yes men" if you will, as compared to the ones that wrote and still write under his Unz Review posts. OTOH, I usually agree too. Not this time.
Right, a lot of special interests were involved in the insane immigration explosion of the early 2020s.

But why didn’t anybody notice?
Special interests have always been involved. In ’20, the Extra-Special Interests, the Deep State Globalists, figured they had this PRP thing done now that they had gotten rid of Trump. Their overall plan, above cheap labor, above MOAR Commie votes, was to make sure there will never be a big active White Middle Class again, anywhere, ever! That’s evil. That’s what they want.

Oh, and we DID notice that. How could a VDare WRITER, not just reader, not notice(©) this?

There are comments on TUR starting here, including a nice long one from "Jenner Ickam Errican" (Generic American). Back under his own post, one of Mr. Sailer's own comments in the thread went:
Right. A few decades ago, Biden would have eventually cracked down on his staff over immigration and altered course earlier. Same with crime too.

But he was too senile to feel the winds of change.
Too senile, huh? It was just that rogue Mayorkas… should have been cracked down on? Bull. There were and are people behind all this who Steve Sailer doesn't want to admit exist, because we don't know their names. As far as Bai Dien himself, this is from 10 years back. (H/t Generic American)



Man, does Mayorkas look suspense-movie-villain-level EVIL in that clip!

Peak Stupidity has discussed this Stupidity v Evil question before. No, they are not ALL stupid. As for the PRP specifically, this (SS substack) commenter Longstreet is on the right track in that thread, per Peak Stupidity's view:
I think the elites hate us. They look at a place like Mexico where there is an even greater wealth gap than there is in the US, and they say, “Hey, this is a better model for me. I can more easily manipulate these people and I can use them to undermine white people who are blue collar.
Yup. Now here's a more minor subject but with that same error of interpretation.



The post was Lone Gunmen vs. Mob Violence, from just after Charlie Kirk's assassination.

The subtitle is: Lots of people blamed JFK's assassination on the "climate of hate" among conservative Texans. So, don't jump to conclusions.

I was generally in agreement with the post, but not the one thing in (my) bold:
In contrast, horrifying as lone gunmen are, quick attempts to draw broader lessons from them often go awry, as happened during the 1960s. For instance, JFK’s assassination was initially blamed on a “Climate of Hate” in conservative Dallas by NBC news anchors Huntley & Brinkley. Much of the rise of leftism in America in the 1960s was influenced by misperceptions like that.
He’s right – don’t jump to conclusions, and about the way the JFK assassination was spun (not really a lesson gone awry, IMO, just the leftist Regime Media of the time). However, no, the rise of leftism was due to the rise in the number of leftists. Remember Occam’s Razor? The Communists in America have not “misperceived” ANYTHING. Again, they are not stupid – they are evil. OK, enough. Steve Sailer is an honest man, so I think he is just too nice to imagine this idea of actually evil people. Some people ya' just cain't reach...

... yet, I sure enjoy reading the guy. The subtitle of his now-2nd-to-latest (very short) post, Are Feminists as Delicate Flowers as the MSM Suggests? - also without a paywall - goes: How dare a brute of a man like Pete Hegseth imply that women aren't tough enough for combat? Doesn't he know how much that hurts their feelings? LOL! cause it's TRUE!


PS: Regarding the assassination of JFK, there are so many reasons Deep State types would have wanted to kill him that one figures, details aside, it HAD TO BE a conspiracy. When it comes to the Big Bankers that did not like the idea of a return to sound money, perhaps Lee Harvey Oswald was a loan gunman. (Get it? If so, please clap…)
