A Pessimist’s Day in the Life

I wish I didn't believe the things that Eric Weinstein summarizes here:

NOT ONE of the following is an extraordinary claim:

The CIA not only gathers intelligence but kills people, violates rights, gaslights and evades scrutiny and oversight.

The U.S. hides bioweapons programs.

The U.S. engages in regime change through charity and aid programs.

We in the U.S. medically experiment on our own citizens without consent.

We run drugs.

The DOJ and FBI are actively and flagrantly obstructing justice.

Putin easily kills people outside Russia.

We conspire and use academics for sheepskin washing our dirty work.

U.S. newspapers actively avoid reporting stories about which the U.S. population is desperate for information. They also carry extremely non neutral biases.

We actively conspired to hide open and obvious presidential dementia. And by extension, there are massive conspiracies at every level below that one. At a mind boggling level.

About Our Real Enemies

Brett Weinstein: "Something is at war with us, “us” being regular citizens who want things to work and to be left alone. We’re slow to react because we think in terms of nations. Our enemies are mafias that wear our governments like a cloak to defeat our eyes, and fly our flags to disarm our minds."

CEO of Palintir: I Didn’t Change. Democrats Changed.

Palintir CEO Alex Karp:

I didn't shift my politics. The political parties have shifted their politics. The idea that what's being called progressive is in any way progressive is a complete farce. I've been progressive since the beginning of Palantir. I am continuing to progress. I grew up in a highly intellectually, intellectual, mostly Jewish, incredibly left wing environment. And every saturday and every Friday, I heard a lecture about how the Conservatives are going to destroy this country with illegal immigration, because it's going to undermine the fabric of the American worker.

That was 50 years ago. That's what it means to be a progressive. And being progressive doesn't mean just oh, it feels so good to be involved in dysfunction, things that can never work. A form of socialism that's never worked. Having no meritocracy. That's not progressive, That's pretend. That's honestly cowardly, and most people, half my old party, knows it. They don't speak up. It's bullshit. It will never work, and it does not help. You know, the biggest problem with that is it's not helping the poor people that they claim to serve. If you think that's helping a black person in the inner city, you're ridiculous. The last thing anyone in this country needs is a dysfunctional educational system and handouts that have never worked and are not going to work.

Tax Funded “Day Cares” in Minneapolis

Looks legit, right? Citizen journalist visits this "daycare" that receives more than $2M/year in tax dollars and 3 angry men call him a racist and demand that he leave. I've seen several dozen of these encounters with tax-funded empty "daycares" in several cities, many of them run by Somalians. In Minnesota alone the fraud has sucked in billions of dollars. At the same time, hundreds of millions of $ of cash has been funneled out of the Minneapolis airport:

Rand Paul:  "We’re at the tip of the iceberg. Hundreds of millions in cash were openly shipped overseas through our airports. As Homeland Security Chair, I’m launching an investigation because Americans deserve to know where this money went."
