Once pretty much nothing happened after this, I gave up most hope there were any honest people who could bring any such things under control:

Libor scandal

The scandal arose when it was discovered in 2012 that banks were falsely inflating or deflating their rates so as to profit from trades, or to give the impression that they were more creditworthy than they were. Libor underpins approximately $350 trillion in derivatives.

I guess if it was more than a few hundred trillion, people might start to take it seriously.

I believe the primary functional reason for it was what a lawyer mentioned to me years ago in an offhanded comment. A normie, BTW, but a sharp one, who thought the case was as it was presented.

He said, "You know, before the OJ case, if there was a domestic dispute the police would try to get everyone to calm down, to keep the peace, to work it out. After OJ, they were only there to haul someone off to jail. Didn't matter who. They'd take the man over the woman, the parent over the child, who called the cops over who just wanted it to end." Given recent trends in the state of "policing", it makes total sense, doesn't it?

Another foundation motivation behind any of these hoaxes is that each one divorces us farther from reality, including our sense of what it is, our skill in detecting it, and even our desire to do so. Keep your radar on for it and you'll start to hear how little most people care about reality any more.

The problem with attributing any event to a distraction is that there's usually no effective way to prove it out. If I was one of "Them", I'd pay people to go around saying everything was a distraction from everything else. It's funny because over the last few years on r/conspiracy, there is so much of exactly that... lol

Well, they want to to destroy Russia entirely, that's for sure and that's been the plan all along. I mean, war of all types has worked well--and often great--for the Cabal. But the aspect which has changed is that they are losing and are certain to continue losing such a war.

The Cabal is in worse shape than it's ever been. Western weapons and the Ukrainian military they took a decade building has been systematically destroyed by Russia. Their "offensives" consist of packaging it all up and transporting to the front lines to be obliterated. Russia is in no hurry to win since they're steadily demilitarizing the entire Western war machine. There's not a lot left, actually.

So what next for the Cabal? After a century of "force is the only thing they understand" + "might makes right", what do you do when you're getting your ass kicked? Almost everyone thinks it would go to nukes. Long story but there's no way. I don't believe the Cabal is in control of the US arsenal, and any other Western nuclear power that makes a move would get glassed. The stuff Medvedev says will turn your hair white.

As to the final question of "why?", and what's behind all this, no sensible answers have been floated and it's obviously insane to pursue that course, as I've described. Given that, wild speculation is in order.

I'd say it's because Russia was the historic center of the Tartarians. The last huge war, lasting through the 1800s, was between them and the Cabal. The Tartarians lost and the Cabal sought to erase even the memory of them. If I know these facts, I'm sure there are those in Russia who know the same and have known for a long time. Now the Tartarians are rising again.

If you recast the war as not being about Ukraine or Russia or the US or NATO or whoever else, but about something much deeper and more vital, then a lot more about it starts to make sense.

Not a video, but this paper lays out a compelling case the whole thing was a hoax:

THE O. J. SIMPSON TRIAL was Faked (30-page PDF)

So anyone that thought OJ was guilty or not guilty may have had good reason to think so, but they were wrong (if you see what I'm saying). That's just how "They" love to set things up.

I think They're caught on the horns of a dilemma, one They weren't sure existed with the Ukraine War, but They're hella sure this time around.

On the one hand and as you say, the walls just close in further on these scumbags every day, both in Israel and the US. There just does not seem a viable path out of it outside of war, where chaos gets unleashed. It's like a super weak chess position where you overturn the board, hoping you can sneak a few pieces to different positions as you put them back.

But on the other hand, the Ukraine War was a catastrophe and the Gaza War is turning out to be a worse catastrophe, smaller in scale but far more rapid, and still only fighting Hamas and a bit of Hezbollah and Yemen. If They really wanted a war with Iran, no provocations are even necessary at this point. Just false flag it, as you mention. Easy as, say. CIA planting a bomb at a US base in Iraq and saying it was an Iranian drone. Make sure a US diplomat or two is there.

And all this is staring down the barrel of November 2024 and what's shaping up to be a Trump tidal wave. No rational paths (no matter how evil) seem available. I think we should just expect the unexpected.

With the general flavor of the various "rumors of war" compiled by ZeroHedge, I'm very strongly reminded of the prelude to the Ukraine War. I'm going to have to put a finer point on that because what was significant about it was never noticed in the first place.

For weeks and months, the entire Establishment went on and on about, "Russia is preparing for an invasion, they're totally getting ready, we're hearing the chatter, reliable but anonymous sources say, orders have been issued, they're coming right now...." Even Big Z told them to STFU because it was bad for business but on it went, endlessly.

It reached a fever pitch then... nothing happened. It was so bad that they were trolled by Russia on Twitter with an image of Vincent Vega shrugging his shoulders with a quizzical look on his face. No answer from the Establishment.

Then a couple of days later, Russia struck.

The key observation was that the Establishment never tried to take credit for being right all along. They had been faked out of their socks and--as is absolutely standard practice with a big loss--They wanted it all erased from the public consciousness as soon as possible. (Pepperidge Farms remembers.)

I suppose I'm just saying these jackasses have no idea what's going on, and deeply fear They are going to get their asses kicked once again, in a whole new war, if anything actually pops off.

Between "somehow this all makes sense to Them" and "They are so desperate They have no idea what do and so fall back on just telling as many lies as possible", I'm personally going with the latter.

I've never studied it closely enough to come to any conclusion, but there is another view on it probably worthy of evaluation:

The 1932 Bonus Army scandal was always communist propaganda (8/29/2023)

The Bonus Army scandal was not an example of government run amok, but rather of quick-thinking officials standing resolute in the face of revolutionary activity sponsored from abroad. How do we know this? One of the lead organizers admitted it.

John T. Pace was a Communist Party operative assigned as an organizer for the Workers’ Ex-Servicemen’s League of Michigan. The League was a veteran’s organization created and controlled by the Communist Party. Pace worked with the League’s unemployment council but quickly rose through the ranks to other duties.

I don't have a link to the full post, but there's a "free post" to get you through the paywall. In any case, just knowing that Commie's name is probably enough to follow up on.

IMHO, the whole situation was way beyond control when the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee complained about being spied on and nothing was done:

A Brief History of the CIA's Unpunished Spying on the Senate: President Obama's choice to lead the intelligence agency has undermined core checks and balances with impunity. (The Atlantic 12/23/2014)

“I have grave concerns that the CIA’s search may well have violated the separation of powers principles embodied in the United States Constitution,” she said. “I have asked for an apology and a recognition that this CIA search of computers used by its oversight committee was inappropriate. I have received neither.”

They are beyond even apologizing for the embarrassment of being caught. Of course, the shocking thing about that article is that it was already a decade ago when it was published.

Actually, the really shocking part is that is was in The Atlantic. C'mon, people, The Atlantic was calling this out!

I wrote up a long post a couple of months ago on the Reagan assassination attempt, which gives a full account of some of the intriguing elements brought up in the video:

The attempted assassination of Ronald Regan did not go down like you think (even if you are a conspiracy theorist) (2/17/2024)

It was skipped in the video, but I also followed up on the famous connection to Jodie Foster:

Jodie Foster is another “star” manufactured by the Illuminati, prototype of the MK-MOUSEKETEER (2/18/2024)

Finally, the whole thing just exploded in my face when I followed up on precisely where Hinckley Jr. was living at the time of the event, which you will find here in the section for "Evergreen, Colorado":

Exposing the Dark World: There’s something very strange about “Evergreen” (2/20/2024)

Since you mention him specifically, if you want to go deep into the weeds it turns out there's more to Robbie Parker than anyone suspects. Normies think he's a grieving dad, and conspiracists think he's an actor. There turns out to be much more to be said, as I wrote up in a post just a few days ago

It’s a (very) Small World 3x3: 3 Elite Families working together in 3 locations (and no one ever noticed) (3/31/2024)

I suppose that in my mind, the challenge I present is to familiarize oneself with the SH event, then review all these bizarre associations with the Parkers and far beyond, yet still try to think, "SH indeed happened and was a terrible tragedy, and all these connections are one big coincidence."

Corn for sure, too, yes. Excellent contribution.

To argue a bit further along the lines of the Anunnaki hypothesis. I mentioned that the Flood was right around 11000 BC, and one Nibiru orbit of 3600 years later (7400 BC or 9400 years ago), they introduced agriculture. I also mentioned that they try to "smear out" the record, which you can see when the mainstream says "between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago" in your quote.

They do it again in the next sentence with "around 4,500 years ago... present across the Americas". One Nibiru orbit after agriculture, or 3800 BC, the Anunnaki apparently decided to "reboot" civilization. That's precisely the time of the mysterious advent of Sumerian civilization out of nowhere. Then a little while later (to them, anyway), they booted up civilization in the Americas using corn to feed the slaves.

As for how Atlantis fits in, it is said to have been founded by Poseidon, who can be pretty reliably identified with Enki of the Anunnaki. The timeline and details of all this is incredibly sparse. I think the evidence has all been destroyed or is sequestered under the Vatican or something.

Thanks for the comment. Glad it had direct resonance (well, not glad you got sick, but you know what I mean!).

One minor follow on to your idea that something about the whole thing seemed really "improvised" in the early days. Everyone seems to have forgotten when, in late January after reports started coming out of Wuhan, Nancy Pelosi went to Chinatown in SF and told everybody not to even worry about it. How TF could that have been part of the huge scheme?

From a sort of meta-perspective, I think the transition to Plan B, as you say, is another indication They are getting desperate and They really need something to break Their way before it all falls apart even further.

If I may reiterate, the knowledge of the host and his revelation are both entirely useless. That's precisely what throws off our intuition.

Remove those from your imagination completely. The host knows nothing and will show you nothing. You pick #1, then the host says, "Do you want to keep #1, or take the better of either #2 and #3?"

Well, not much of a question in that formulation, is it? I could not believe how long the wiki page was on this.

Exactly, exactly. But then how do you explain to people to eat less grains because, well, there were these aliens, you see, and... lol

Primate98 4 points ago +4 / -0

This is a real left turn, but under the "Ancient Aliens" hypothesis, you would see that they needed to feed a large and concentrated slave population. The best way was not through hunting and gathering, but by the introduction of what we would now refer to as agriculture.

Most particularly, this was through the introduction of grains. If you research the domestication of primary cereal grains like wheat, corn, and rice, you'll find that the story gets real hazy about exactly how these were domesticated. They essentially just give up trying to explain it.

For more direct evidence, one can look at an Akkadian cylinder seal memorializing this, cataloged as VA/243 and known informally as "The Granting of the Plow".

Also, more in-depth research shows that the development of agriculture coincides with the first passage of Nibiru (7400 BC) after the Great Flood of Noah (11000 BC).

All this information is, of course, smeared out and obfuscated by the mainstream.

I don't think it has anything to do with some lack of specificity of the definition of the problem. The whole reason the "Monty Hall Problem" is a brain teaser is that it is counter-intuitive.

I would then say it is counter-intuitive because we automatically assume "additional information" is "useful additional information". Here, the revelation of the goat behind Door No. 3 is additional information which is not actually useful. Let me illustrate....

Suppose, rather than revealing the goat behind Door No. 3, the host simply says, "Rather than keeping what's behind Door No 1, would you like to take the best of what's behind Door No. 2 and Door No. 3?"

You see, at this point, a goat is assuredly behind one or the other door. The revelation of which is entirely immaterial and therefore useless. To be more direct, if you switch now, you get the best of two doors, or a 2/3 chance at the prize.

This result, of course, matches up with the combinatoric analysis.

You know, the other item of interest in that short video was when someone mentioned the petrodollar. Really, the host just said the word and the guest said "Exactly". It's a touchstone in conspiracy circles, and we've all heard about it for years and decades.

While yes, of course petroleum will forever be traded somewhere in dollars, the operational concept of the petrodollar died over the past couple of years. Only a handful of people can be said to have noticed.

My point is that when the Elites take a big "L", They just stop talking about it. In turn, both normies and conspiracists have nothing to react to in the headlines and just continue on with whatever ideas they already had.

It's quite startling to see how effective this simple technique really is.

Off-topic, but I wanted to rant a bit about how "They" manipulate the public consciousness. Specifically, when he comments, "The important thing in the Middle East is the Persian Gulf, cause that's where the oil is." That message has been drilled into all of us.

While that statement is technically true, it's also been irrelevant for some years now. This article discusses some relevant info, but I'll take a microscope to it:

Did The U.S. Become The World’s Top Oil Producer Under President Trump? (9/29/2020)

If you look at the date, this was approaching the 2020 election when it was fresh in many people's minds that, "At long last, Trump made America not only energy-independent, but a big exporter". This obvious progressive actively sought to destroy that notion with this article.

This guy is a "chemical engineer covering the energy sector" and a Senior Contributor to Forbes, where the article was republished. You think he'd have some kind of expertise, right? A sense of that expertise is suggested when he complains that:

First, the graphic isn’t reporting barrels of petroleum. It is reporting energy content. When we talk about how much oil Saudi Arabia produces, we talk about barrels. Nobody says that Saudi Arabia produces 25 quadrillion British thermal units of petroleum.

The statement is nonsense, of course. The graphic itself says it's reporting "petroleum and natural gas production", but those two products are individually reported by units of barrels and MBTUs. As the products are virtually always found and extracted together, to combine them into a single figure for "production" we have to change the units for at least one (natural gas is often converted to "BOE", or "barrels of oil equivalent"). Does this dipshit really not know about this standard practice?

What to notice at the current time, though, is that no one in the mainstream makes any mention of entire subject. Why? The issue of petroleum production and energy-independence have been almost completely forgotten by the public. Were they to be discussed, the argument would be all on the side of the US leaving the Middle East entirely, and leaving Israel to lie in the bed it's made.

It's actually quite funny because this same douche begins that exact case in another post:

EIA Confirms U.S. Producing More Oil Than Any Country in History (3/15/2024)

I think what's notable here is that we're even beyond the charade of "someone getting in trouble for this". We should recognize that among the populace the sides are already chosen, so to speak. No such pantomime is necessary to fool those who are already fooled, or sufficient to fool those who are not.

"They" know this and act accordingly so as not to waste resources. We should do the same.

Primate98 2 points ago +2 / -0

The paper has one big omission, but I cut them some slack on it because pretty much zero other conspiracy theorists have discussed the issue, let alone offered an account. It should be covered in this section:

  1. All the harms reported can be explained by a combination of:

Most people can set their minds back to the period of about Nov 2019-Jan 2020, before any of us had heard "COVID" uttered aloud. Many friends and family or even ourselves became ill with something along the lines of "the worst flu I ever had". Listening to back catalog podcasts from this period and being alert to the issue, I heard numerous reports of it.

People were sick as a dog for about a week, then recovered fully. I never heard a report of anyone dying, but one podcaster--a robust, middle-aged Texan just returned from an out-of-state backcountry hunting trip, ended up in the hospital for eight days. They asked him over and over if he had been to College Station, since that was where Texas' only case of COVID had been reported.

The point is, I would suspect some sort of very large-scale bioweapon or chemical weapon deployment, but there is virtually no discussion of this I could link us to for more information. The pandemic was fake, sure, but many will have personal experience with the phenomenon I'm pointing out here.

(BTW: I'm firmly in the camp of "viruses don't exist and thus are not contagious pathogens".)

The key underlying principle here--and it is perhaps the one which defines what a "progressive" really is--is that they never acknowledge any limit to their power. Even explicit and specific limitations are only practical obstacles.

I don't think any of this is conscious, either, along the lines of, "Let's just see what I can get away with." Rather, I think in their minds there is only power, who wields it, and who shall be subject to it.

Tartaria is a key element in the big picture of human history. I would go further to say that it is actually the crucial reason underlying the Russia-Ukraine War, so it has direct relevance even now.

Study of Tartaria is picking up speed every day. I only heard about two or three years ago and now it's everywhere. I consider conpiracists who haven't heard about it to be well behind the curve.

All that being the case, "They" have begun their information war. We went past ignoring it, are currently in the phase of ridiculing it, and are beginning to see "muddying the waters".

With that perspective, you really have to take note of just how many active disinfo agents are floating around.

The RFK assassination was faked. which you can tell by careful examination of a couple of the key photos. They also don't match up with the "eyewitness testimony". But examine those photos while you can, because:

New Twist in Kennedy Mystery : Photo Negatives of Robert F. Kennedy’s Assassination Disappear (LA Times 1/18/1996)

Whodathunk? It's beyond belief (to me) that RFK Jr. has never come across this theory, but if anyone is out there thinking Jr. is controlled op meant to drain attention and support from Trump, you can add this to your pile of evidence against him.

Fun fact: This would imply that Sirhan Sirhan may indeed have been mind-controlled, but his gun would have been loaded with blanks and he was only there to serve as a distraction. The idea of a mind-controlled assassin came to our popular culture in the 1962 movie "The Manchurian Candidate" by John Frankenheimer. In the movie, the target is a candidate for President.

Well, guess who RFK stayed with the night before and who drove him to his date with destiny at the Ambassador Hotel? You got it! John Frankenheimer

Frankenheimer was devastated by RFK's assassination in June 1968, due in part to his proximity to the event. Kennedy spent the night before the California primary in Frankenheimer’s Malibu home. He had first been scheduled to accompany Kennedy through the Ambassador Hotel after the candidate's victory speech in the California primaries. Early news reports listed Frankenheimer as one of the wounded in Kennedy's entourage. Frankenheimer and spouse Evans Evans were waiting at a side entrance of the Ambassador Hotel to pick up Kennedy when he emerged from the press conference and drive him to their home.

Maybe John and Evans Evans (?) actually did give Bobby a lift back that night.
