Toward A New Barbarism, Part VII: Notes on the Old Testament I

  In similar way to Shoah, we can interpret most of Jewish myth through esoteric lens. Most pogroms speak of thousands or tens of thousands of Jews dying, when in reality most of them involved a few, or at worst a few hundred Jews dying and a few hundred more losing property to theft and vandalism. This was routinely exaggerated in what is now understood as the Jewish archetype of the crying victim. The Jew routinely exaggerates any wounds to their people; vandalism is assault, assault is murder, singular murder is mass murder, a few murders are orgiastic murder, and tens or hundreds of murders are attempts at genocide. This is because most Jews fundamentally share the view of Chabad Lubavitch, which is that gentile people are like cattle and the blood of one Jew is worth more than the lives of all gentiles on the Earth. Chabad are just the bad manners, bad optics Hasidic version who are very effective at operating and organizing for the interests of international Jewry generally and Z

Pathological Conservatives: Winning politically requires making a coalition of interests. One does this by forming an elite who agree willingly to work together despite some lack of obvious shared material interest. Ideology has the same effect as willing agreement on elites except on managers and rump supporters, often unwittingly. By the dictum of Clausewitz – war as continuation of politics and vice versa – we see that war functions similarly. We use symbols, myth, and the like to stir the broad mass of supporters in war while the leaders are usually more focused on their interests. One tries to build a coalition before going to war and keep it strong or, if need be, strengthen it in the course of the war. Whichever side in a struggle has the best coalition, be it political struggle or overtly material in nature, will probably win. If this strength is relative, then that is fine; if one is strong by virtue of the fact that the enemy’s coalition has been undermined by skulldugger

  Ruminating on QAnon : I’ve found the question of QAnon fascinating. Q for future reference was of course a poster on an ostensibly anonymous image board (really, two image boards) who posted under the moniker Q with a unique alphanumeric ‘trip code.’ We will assume for the sake of conversation that this is one person for a moment and we can use the pronoun ‘he.’ Anyway, he would post generally vague information with links to Wikileaks dumps, government or think tank (like RAND) white papers, and photos. The posts were structured in such a way as to create an ARG – alternate reality game. These had become popular since about 2004 or 2005 with the explosion of cellphones and increasing with the penetration of cell phones and GPS into daily life. One could encode information onto a GPS map, or GPS coordinates into text or images or what have you and lead people on a real life goose chase or Easter egg hunt. The whole purpose was to encode clues in such a way as to require a path thr
