What makes me an authority??
A boxy examination of an outside the box thinker...
Who am I to have an opinion? There are so many ways to go here. Hmmmm? Should I just go with the classic, “why, I am a philosopher!” Or do I lay out my creds as an old soul that has been around the block a few times that has seen and done enough for two lifetimes. Or I could just say I am a savant trouble-shooter and relish you with my instance of solving a server problem that was perplexing techs way above my paygrade at a server farm (a room the size of two football fields housing nothing but computers barely spaced wide enough for humans to walk between) belonging to a top insurance company that must remain nameless here, by simply suggesting a path to determine which ‘box’ was causing the glitch.
Sometimes you need to step back from a problem to see it completely. It is true I am a philosopher at heart, not in degree but organically. From the time I stood on two legs I have driven every family member crazy asking why? I know a smile creeps onto the face of my only remaining brother as he reads this, and it would have made my other brother guffaw with laughter if he were still here. My only sister would nod here head if she could bring herself to read this but our ‘politics’ have driven a deep wedge that separates us, not by hate but fervent belief that cannot (so far) be bridged. We both love each other more like twins although we are not.
But speaking of politics, that is the driving force that keeps me writing these weekly releases on Substack. Why do I care? The simplest answer is usually the best.
I write because things are wrong!
Who am I to say, ‘things are wrong?’ A philosopher, remember? A trouble-shooter that can show paths to resolve problems way above my paygrade! And an old soul that just knows when things are ‘off’. Many of you know it too. If you don’t, just ask yourself how did the world get so off-kilter? How is it possible that the foreign interests have infiltrated our cozy country that has the most powerful document since the Magna Carta (look it up if you were in school in the last 20 years, I am sure they never taught you about it)?
I won’t bore you with the actual infiltration, just know they did, and we took the bait, hook, line and sinker! While our arch enemies were playing 3D Chess, we were playing checkers, or maybe even ‘Tiddlywinks’? (Look it up, remember I am and old soul.) You don’t have to be a savant to know we have redefined words so today, when we are almost where Martin Luther King wanted us, we have moved the goal post. Today’s conservative is yesterday’s liberal!
Not too long ago even Barack Obama wanted a secure border and reasoned that it was grossly unfair to all the legitimate immigrants for masses to ‘jump the line’ ahead of those that applied, waited, learned of our history, passed an exam, and most of all pledged allegiance to our country!
This special link brings you in about 40 seconds to the meat of the matter. You can however, go back to hear the whole video.
Our country is built from those willing to roll up their sleeves and make a positive difference to their community, their state, and more, every day in their new country of which they cherish.
This is a far cry from a President that just openly commented that his goal is to invite enough poor, unfortunates from other countries to make as he put it the ‘those of white European heritage’ a minority. Of course, this plays to his base! If you were (and some of you reading this are from a minority as declared by today’s standards), you would find a level of comfort in becoming a majority rather than minority. This issue has caused race-baiting and much anguish. As long as one party can make you see this as ‘us & them’ the wound continues to fester.
The liberals of Martin Luther King’s day demanded a world where all men and women would be judged by their character, not the color of their skin. This is where things get really crazy. The Democrat party is accusing the Republican party of crimes the Dems historically committed. I am not sure how well Google (a decidedly left leaning colossus search engine) will portray the despicable crimes of the Dems of the 50’s and 60’s, but if you search with other search engines you’ll see, (avoid Microsoft’s Bing as they have unleashed a monster AI that is shadow-banning conservatism and promoting liberalism).
I must give a recent example: I ask Bing for examples of banks closing accounts and refusing to fund conservative influencers. Bing AI politely said I do not know of any. I then sited the name of a conservative influencer that Chase bank recently ‘debanked’, (a word soon to be added to your dictionary I am sure) and Bing AI instantly produced the story from a limited few mostly left leaning news medias. How was it possible that the all-knowing AI had those stories but did not regurgitate them when I asked a low-information-voter style question, but when I rephrase from a knowledgeable perspective it is all there, but with a definite lean to the left?
When I try to duplicate that AI response it now offers debanking! As we know, AI learns (to placate me, but I am not so sure it would answer that way to a low-information-voter’s first query…)
Part of our problem is the ‘two steps backward and one step forward’ tango we have accepted for years now. The new movement that sees that for what it is, MAGA is now the target of the left. Maybe it’s a good place to be, but as I said that Tango has made yesterday’s Democrats today’s Republicans! That is why so many former Dems are now unsticking themselves from the party that is again committing the crimes. Just like the Dems of the 50’s and 60’s they are stirring up racial discord.
Would you believe in 2024 there would be black-only parties, graduations, and dorms??
The same party that did it to us over 70 years ago is making a huge comeback! Why would they do that? FOMO! (Look it up, old souls). They are afraid of a world that won’t need them anymore! The very thing that began to flourish in 2016 scared the Nancy Pelosi(es) and Joe Biden(s) to their rotten core! A core that wants votes more than law and order. What they really crave is POWER!
And they were losing it when a devout conservative was deregulating business and opening the floodgates allowing the largest workforce of ‘people of color’ and ‘birthing people’ ever! I am sorry but I have to laugh at that last Dem-creation, a women can only be distinguished from all the mentally ill men wanting to be women by labeling the ‘real McCoy’ as ‘birthing people’! Ha-ha-ha LOL LMAO ROTFL…
”Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive…”
Now that that is out of my system, I have to say a big piece of the power game is manipulation. If you don’t think we are heavily manipulated let me inform you. Former CIA & FBI officials are all over the dinosaur news media and employed by the social media giants. Examples within Facebook (a Meta company); there are at least nine that we know of according to the Firefox search engine, and dozens at Twitter, (this article was posted before the Elon Musk takeover) including Greg Anderson, who previously worked on “psychological operations” at the National Security Council!
The truth is the underbelly of the deep state (of which was deemed as ‘tinfoil hat conspiracy theory’ (a phrase that was most likely coined by the deep state) is affecting our freedom to live and think on so many levels it boggles the mind! The Oxford language definition of deep state:
deep state
noun: deep state; plural noun: deep states
a body of people, typically influential members of government agencies or the military, believed to be involved in the secret manipulation or control of government policy.
"the deep state and its policy of allowing extremist ideologies to flourish may be the actual issues of concern"
Some dictionaries are still using ‘alleged’ as the deep state still controls many. These are not imaginary people. When former FBI and CIA members find jobs in the most influential medias in their ‘psychological operations’ departments, the handwriting is on the wall. Well, these poor agents needed a place to work, right? Yeah, and they are doing what they do best, messing with our minds!
Just be aware manipulation comes from all sides. I am sure the degradation of races was fermented in deep state vats. The one thing that kicked deep state’s ‘heinie’ was Donald John Trump and they came after him with a vengeance! For so long they have held the reins of our nation and for a brief time between 2016 and 2020 they lost control! The most effective weapon the deep state has is the ‘back atcha psych’. They have used this for years and recently handed it off to the Dems! The ‘back atcha psych’ is simple but it has complex psychological impact. It is when you accuse the opposition of something before it is widely known you are doing it!
Joe Biden knows he wants more control than the Constitution allows him (or at least his handlers do), so he paints the opposition with ‘Nazi’ and ‘dictator’ labels. That way when it becomes apparent that he has grossly overstepped his powers (Can you say recent Supreme Court rulings?) we will be so confused by both parties abusing their constitutional powers that almost no flak falls on ‘Sleepy Joe’!
MAGA is taking heavy flak from deep state (inside the medias) and the left powerbrokers in D.C. They do psych research on which words and phrases light up the most neurotransmitters in a human brain! Those are uncontrollable responses you might have to a word or phrase, so it predisposes of your ability to think and have opinions, and aims for the animal part of your brain. Have you ever wondered why a word or phrase you have not heard in years or if ever, suddenly is on everyone’s lips?
It won the ‘neurotransmitter-of-the-week’ award, of course! Another weapon in the deep state’s bag of tricks is repetition! A funny thing about our brains, if you pound the same thought in over and over, eventually you begin to give it merit. A great example of that is the Jan6th riot. It was labeled an ‘insurrection’ so many times, I am sure I have heard it close to a thousand, that intelligent people are comfortable using the term to describe what had the energy and planning of a long-sought college football victory celebration!
Was there damage? Yes. Were there skirmishes with authority? Yes. Were there people there to peacefully have their voices heard, as requested by the President just minutes before? Yes. Were there groups that had ideas of taking over the country by force with guns and explosives? No! There were those that thought they might trigger a closer look at the almost declared outcome. A chance to go over the details one more time to be sure something wasn’t corrupted. A final chance to appeal to the Electoral College electors to delay or change their votes? Yes.
As much as the Dems want you to believe, it is not a sacred choosing of the Pope type of ceremony, but a constitutionally driven procedure that does in fact allow Electoral College electors to change their votes! Or at least 19 have historically, and in ‘pot & kettle’ fashion, 10 of the 19 occurred in 2016 by liberals! LOL
This deep dive into the Electoral College and its ability to change their vote shows the question is still hotly contested and the Supreme Court so far has balked at a finite decision! This usually means it would be a state-by-state choice, but some states have assumed power to strike down an already-cast, changed vote, which in itself was struck down as a power not clearly given by Constitution or Amendment!
There are many safety valves built into the Constitution. The Electoral College is one the Dems despise, as it gives equal power to the other party! They have openly lobbied for its removal!
If the Electoral College were removed, the Dems would completely, abso-frickin’-lutely take full control of the country! It’s a known fact that liberals flourish in big cities and conservatives prefer open country. For that reason, there are far more voting bodies in the top ten cities than all the rest of the United States! In a perfect democracy the left would dictate all policies to those on the right. Our country’s founders saw that glitch and chose a republic instead. The Electoral College gives wide open spaces extra votes for volume that counters the population centers.
Think about it for a minute. If less than 20% of the land mass was controlling 80%, pretty soon that 80% would want to be its own country! The Dems can pipedream, but that will never happen because the 80% of real estate would exit the Dem-Kingdom and make MAGA-Land! The only way you can keep the 80% of your country would be by force and that would get messy! And know that the 80% is what grows most of the nourishment your big cities need to survive!
All of this just to go down a ‘neurotransmitter-of-the-week’ rabbit hole! Do you see the enormous power the deep state holds when they use their psych-tool bag against us? One thing you can do is notice if a word or phrase suddenly becomes everyone’s favorite term. That means they are pounding your neurons and dendrites with repetition so you too will believe what they have drawn up for you. You can question why? Find the data. Search less biased engines like Firefox, DuckDuckGo, etc..

Notice that Google and Bing are not on that list? The deep state infection is killing our country. We need an antibody, and the most anti-body to ever grace the White House wants one more chance to clean that house. #DisinfectUS
