Anyone who feels they are a have-not can then buy into that lifestyle and adopt that identity to instantly become part of an in-group where they can receive acceptance and even applause from other members of that group But that isn't true connection in the same way that friendship or family is. It is just a puffed up imitation of true community where lots of lost souls are all egging each other on to greater and greater depths of nihilism That is quite true.

I don't even believe that putin is independent of the WEF globalist elites and this conflict has only helped draw public attention away from the covid scamdemic and the harms caused by the jabs But putting that aside 'the left' HATES russia and i can only assume that is because it is perceived to be a predominantly white and christian country (even if its oligarchic elites are neither) Edited March 1, 2022 by Macnamara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bank admitted that inflation looks likely to sail past its prediction of a 7.25 per cent peak, potentially by several percentage points, in the wake of the Ukraine war. However, while the Bank's main remit is to control inflation, the global nature of the problems means the lever of interest rates might only have a marginal effect.

From the article: A newly released video shows a California man who died two years ago screaming “I can’t breathe” while being restrained by authorities, ABC affiliate KXTV reported. A California judge ordered the video of Edward Bronstein’s death to be released to the public on Tuesday. In the nearly 18-minute video, Bronstein, 38, is seen refusing an order from California Highway Patrol officers to take a blood test, according to the ABC affiliate. Five CHP officers continue to hold Bronstein down, with some putting their knees on his back as he shouted “ll do it! I’ll do it! I promise!” the ABC affiliate reported. “It’s too late,” one officer replied. Bronstein began to shout “I can’t breathe!” and “I can’t!” as authorities continued to restrain, according to the video. “Stop yelling!” one CHP officer said to Bronstein. A medical professional took his blood as he appeared unresponsive. For some reason, leftist activists did not burn down any cities following the death of Edward Bronstein. And there were no mass protests across the country following Bronstein’s death. From King Kitty: WARNING! You will see police officers kill a man as it happens in this video.

Macnamara Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan – The Genocide of the Peoples of Europe By Rhoda Wilson on March 19, 2022 Mass immigration is a phenomenon, the causes of which are still cleverly concealed by the system, and the multicultural propaganda is trying to falsely portray it as inevitable. With this article we intend to prove once and for all, that this is not a spontaneous phenomenon. What they want to present as an inevitable outcome of modern life, is actually a plan conceived around a table and prepared for decades, to completely destroy the face of the continent. Republished from Namaste Publishing UK, 4 December 2021 Originally published on Identità in Italian on 11 December 2012 (Links in the text below are our own) The Pan-Europe Few people know that one of the main initiators of the process of European integration, was also the man who designed the genocide plan of the Peoples of Europe. It is a dark person, whose existence is unknown to the masses, but the elite considers him as the founder of the European Union. His name is Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi. His father was an Austrian diplomat named Heinrich von Coudenhove-Kalergi (with connections to the Byzantine family of the Kallergis) and his mother the Japanese Mitsu Aoyama. Kalergi, thanks to his close contacts with all European aristocrats and politicians, due to the relationships of his nobleman-diplomat father, and by moving behind the scenes, away from the glare of publicity, he managed to attract the most important heads of state to his plan, making them supporters and collaborators for the “project of European integration”. In 1922 he founded the “Pan-European” movement in Vienna, which aimed to create a New World Order, based on a federation of nations led by the United States. European integration would be the first step in creating a world government. Among the first supporters, including Czech politicians Tomáš Masaryk and Edvard Beneš and the banker Max Warburg, who invested the first 60,000 marks. The Austrian Chancellor Ignaz Seipel and the next president of Austria, Karl Renner, took the responsibility for leading the “Pan-European” movement. Later, French politicians, such as Léon Bloum, Aristide Briand, Alcide De Gasperi, etc will offer their help. With the rise of Fascism in Europe, the project was abandoned and the “Pan-European” movement was forced to dissolve, but after the Second World War, Kalergi, thanks to frantic and tireless activity and the support of Winston Churchill, the Jewish Masonic Lodge B’nai B’rith and major newspapers like the New York Times, the plan manages to be accepted by the United States Government. The CIA later undertakes the completion of the project. The essence of the Kalergi plan In his book ‘Praktischer Idealismus’, Kalergi indicates that the residents of the future “United States of Europe” will not be the People of the Old Continent, but a kind of sub-humans, products of miscegenation. He clearly states that the peoples of Europe should interbreed with Asians and coloured races, thus creating a multinational flock with no quality and easily controlled by the ruling elite. (Rough translation German – English of Praktischer Idealismus – Practical Idealism HERE.) Kalergi proclaims the abolition of the right of self-determination and then the elimination of nations with the use of ethnic separatist movements and mass migration. In order for Europe to be controlled by an elite, he wants to turn people into one homogeneous mixed breed of Blacks, Whites and Asians. Who is this elite however? Kalergi is particularly illuminating on this: The man of the future will be of mixed race. The races and classes of today will gradually disappear due to the elimination of space, time, and prejudice. The Eurasian-negroid race of the future, similar in appearance to the Ancient Egyptians, will replace the diversity of peoples and the diversity of individuals. Instead of destroying European Judaism, Europe, against her will, refined and educated this people, driving them to their future status as a leading nation through this artificial evolutionary process. It’s not surprising that the people that escaped from the Ghetto-Prison, became the spiritual nobility of Europe. Thus, the compassionate care given by Europe created a new breed of aristocrats. This happened when the European feudal aristocracy crashed because of the emancipation of the Jews [due to the actions taken by the French Revolution] Although no textbook mentions Kalergi, his ideas are the guiding principles of the European Union. The belief that the peoples of Europe should be mixed with Africans and Asians, to destroy our identity and create a single mestizo race, is the basis of all community policies that aim to protect minorities. Not for humanitarian reasons, but because of the directives issued by the ruthless Regime that machinates the greatest genocide in history. The Coudenhove-Kalergi European Prize is awarded every two years to Europeans who have excelled in promoting this criminal plan. Among those awarded with such a prize are Angela Merkel and Herman Van Rompuy. The incitement to genocide, is also the basis of the constant appeals of the United Nations, that demands we accept millions of immigrants to help with the low birth rates of the EU. According to a report published in January 2000 in Population division Review of the United Nations in New York, under the title “Immigration replacement: A solution to declining and aging population,” Europe will need by 2025 159,000,000 migrants. One could wonder how there can be such accuracy on the estimates of immigration, although it was not a premeditated plan. It is certain that the low birth rate could easily be reversed with appropriate measures to support families. It is just as clear that it is the contribution of foreign genes do not protect our genetic heritage, but that it enables their disappearance. The sole purpose of these measures is to completely distort our people, to turn them into a group of people without national, historical and cultural cohesion. In short, the policies of the Kalergi plan was, and still is, the basis of official government policies aimed at genocide of the Peoples of Europe, through mass immigration. G. Brock Chisholm, former director of the World Health Organization (OMS), proves that he has learned the lesson of Kalergi well when he says: “What people in all places have to do is to limit of birth rates and promote mixed marriages (between different races), this aims to create a single race in a world which will be directed by a central authority.” Conclusions If we look around us, the Kalergi plan seems to be fully realised. We face Europe’s fusion with the Third World. The wave of interracial marriage produces each year thousands of young people of mixed race: “The children of Kalergi.” Under the dual pressures of misinformation and humanitarian stupefaction, promoted by the MSM, the Europeans are being taught to renounce their origin, to renounce their national identity. The servants of globalisation are trying to convince us that to deny our identity, is a progressive and humanitarian act, that “racism” is wrong, because they want us all to be blind consumers. It is necessary, now more than ever, to counter the lies of the System, to awaken the revolutionary spirit of the Europeans. Everyone must see this truth, that European Integration amounts to genocide. We have no other option; the alternative is national suicide. Translator’s note: Although the reasons due to which Kalergi made the choices he made are of no particular interest to us, we will try to answer a question that will surely our readers have already asked: Why a European aristocrat with Flemish, Polish, Greek-Byzantine roots and even with some samurai blood in his veins (from his mother) was such body plans and organ in the hands of dark forces? The reasons, in our opinion, are multiple, idiosyncratic, psychological and … women. We therefore observe a personality with strong snobbish attitudes, arrogance, and, allow me the term, “degenerate elitism.” Also, the fact that his mother was Asian, perhaps created internal conflicts and frustrations, something that can happen to people with such temperament. But the most decisive factor must have been the “proper teenager”, which incidentally of course, was beside him, and became his first woman (at age 13): The Jewess Ida Roland, who would later become a famous actress. European Council On November 16th 2012, the President of the European Council, Herman Van Rompuy, was awarded the Coudenhove-Kalergi Prize, during a special conference in Vienna, to celebrate the 90 years of the pan-European movement. The prize is awarded every two years to leading personalities for their outstanding contribution to the process of European integration. A decisive factor that helped him win the prize was the balanced way in which President Van Rompuy executed his duties in the new position of President of the European Council, which was established by the Treaty of Lisbon. He handled this particularly sensitive leading and coordinating role with a spirit of determination and reconciliation, while emphasis was also given to his skilful arbitration on European affairs and unfailing commitment to European moral values. During his speech, Mr Van Rompuy described the unification of Europe as a peace project. This idea, which was also the objective of the work of Coudenhove-Kalergi, after 90 years is still important. The award bears the name of Count Richard Nicolaus von Coudenhove-Kalergi (1894-1972), philosopher, diplomat, publisher and founder of the Pan-European Movement (1923). Coudenhove-Kalergi was the pioneer of European integration and popularized the idea of a federal Europe with his work. Among the winners of the award, the Federal Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel (2010) and the President of Latvia Vaira Vike-Freiberga (2006), are included.

skitzorat Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Are Whites the Genocidal Maniacs Cultural Marxist Propaganda Would Have You Believe They Are? The myth that Whites are uniquely guilty of genocide (and must be held accountable) was introduced by Cultural Marxists as part of their attempt to rob Whites of their confidence. The truth is that genocide is an even older profession than prostitution. It predates civilization. In fact, it is an evolutionary strategy utilized by (perhaps) all species. All peoples have practiced it. Whites have been “genocided” far more often than they've done it to others. The history (and prehistory) of the British Isles demonstrates just how common genocide is. The original Pictish inhabitants of the islands were invaded and nearly wiped-out by the Gaelics, who, in turn, were invaded by the Brythonic tribes. These Britons were subsequently partially “genocided” by the Romans, and completely wiped out by the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. Who, of course, suffered genocide at the hands of the Danes and later the Normans. The history of White genocide isn't limited to intra-racial incidents. Invading Mongols and Tartars destroyed entire tribes of Slavs and other Whites. More recently, Turks and other middle eastern groups have taken their turn at “genociding” White populations -- from the Iberian peninsula to the Russian steppe. The most recent examples being the Judeo-Turkish genocide of the Armenians and the Judeo-Bolshevik genocide of the Slavs in the early part of the last century. Today, every single major policy of the West--from open borders, to multiculturalism, to feminism, to queerism, and much more--is designed to to one thing and one thing only: ensure that there are fewer White people in the world (which is the definition of genocide). In 1950 roughly 33% of the world's population was White, today less than 13%* is, by the end of this century it will be down to less than 3%.** This ongoing extermination of White people is the single greatest genocide of all time, and, as such, is the single greatest crime of all time. Those responsible must be brought to justice. The claim that Whites are genocidal monsters usually refers to the history of the Americas. We're often told that, when Europeans arrived, there were 25 million American Indians in what is today the continental United States, and that 90% of them were exterminated. The truth is that the overwhelming majority of them died due to a lack of resistance to diseases like smallpox--not to an organized effort to destroy them--and no, missionaries did not knowingly give Indians pox-ridden blankets. First, they didn't understand disease as something that was microbe-based (i.e. spread by germs), and, if they did, they would have been deathly afraid of those blankets. It is true, however, that when Columbus arrived at Hispaniola, the Carib Indians were well on their way to exterminating the Arawaks. Europeans put a stop to it. Also, it's important to remember that all Indian tribes had a history of enslaving and “genociding” one another, long before White men arrived. Further, there's growing evidence that not only did the Mongoloid Amerindians slaughter one another, but that soon after arriving in the Americas, they exterminated the Solutrean peoples, that inhabited North America, as well as the Negroid/proto-Polynesian groups that lived in South America. Finally, it's important to note, that Whites are, by far, the most generous, magnanimous people. Through their creative genius and ingenuity they've contributed inestimably to the benefit of all the world's peoples. Plus, through myriad charities (not to mention the wealth redistribution programs imposed on Whites by the Cultural Marxist regimes that rule our nations) they've donated trillions to feed, house, and otherwise care for the bulk of this planet's non-White population. *includes "mixed race" - "pure" European people ~ <10.5% **this percentage doesn't factor that the mRNA (Pfizer/Moderna) gene jab has been more heavily utilized in "White" countries than anywhere else in the world. Latin America, India and China use others and the African continent has barely been touched. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1248301/india-covid-19-vaccines-administered-by-vaccine-type/ https://www.as-coa.org/articles/timeline-tracking-latin-americas-road-vaccination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitzorat Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Washington Schools to Start Openly Punishing White Students More Than Blacks Schools are making it official that whites be punished harder. My Northwest: A Washington school board butted heads over a new student discipline policy that considers a student’s race before deciding on a punishment. The Clover Park School District debated its new “culturally responsive” student discipline policy. It means student discipline would not be consistent based on conduct. Instead, a school considers a student’s race and background. It would likely offer harsher punishments to white students, even if the conduct is identical to that of a Black or Hispanic student. The disparate treatment is championed in the name of inclusion. But it’s not just a Clover Park School District controversy. The culturally responsive policy impacts every Washington school district after Democrats passed a law institutionalizing critical race theory in student discipline. Culturally responsive discipline gets supportThe Clover Park School Board adopted a revised student discipline policy at its March 14 meeting by a vote of 3-2. At times, the meeting was contentious as two board members argued it’s wrong to use race to determine punishment. The district is majority-minority, with 28% white students. According to the policy, disruptive students may face “exclusionary as well as positive and supportive forms of discipline.” But the focus, the policy maintains, is to keep students in the classroom and provide “equitable educational opportunities.” To make student discipline outcomes more “equitable,” the policy must meet “individual student needs in a culturally responsive manner” via “culturally responsive discipline.” The state officially defines “culturally responsive” as “knowledge of student cultural histories and contexts, as well as family norms and values in different cultures; knowledge and skills in accessing community resources and community and parent outreach; and skills in adapting instruction to students’ experiences and identifying cultural contexts for individual students.” In practice, it means favorable treatment of racial minorities. Race-based disciplineThe two conservative members of the Clover Park School Board asked what is meant by the term “culturally responsive discipline.” Deputy Superintendent Brian Laubach attempted to explain. “Essentially they’re referring there, that you look at ‘are you dispersing discipline across the ethnicities, the racial groups equitably,’ right?,” Laubach said. “So, are you disciplining African-American boys more than you’re disciplining white boys, right? So, are you paying attention to all of that in your data?” He continued by listing some specific data schools would need to compile on student discipline. “What are their backgrounds? Ethnicity? That sort of thing can be commented in that way about it. Then, asking classroom teachers, asking administrators who dispense that discipline, you know, what brought that about over the other forms of discipline you used in your classroom to make a change happen before sending a kid out, perhaps, for a behavior violation,” Laubach said. Conservative board member pushes backAttempting to further explain the concept, board member Anthony Veliz offered a clumsy example of a student stealing a slice of pizza. Veliz argued that the student’s culture teaches that stealing is permitted. “What if, you know, just saying, like, in my background, what if that type of rule that we broke was more acceptable at my house, right, versus your house?” Veliz said. “And, you know, when I’m talking to them, like, ‘hey, you know what, actually, I thought I was OK, I thought it was fine to grab that piece of pizza before anybody else. Because in my house, I’m allowed to do that.’ Right?” Board member Paul Wagemann, meanwhile, rejected this concept. “Let’s say we both commit the same offense,” Wagemann explained. “Then the question should be what are the consequences of that offense? And how do we go through that process? That’s how I see it. And to be fair, if we both did the same thing, we should get the same consequence, the way I see it. And I think that’s how most children on the playground like to see it. Most of us, as citizens in our community, like to see it that way. That it’s equal.” Wagemann objected to the notion that he would “have to look at [a student’s] nationality or where he was born or where he lived” before punishment. “He did an offense. I did the same offense. We should suffer the same consequence. And I think that’s what our system should do, at least the way I see it,” Wagemann concluded. This is happening at all schools It seems reasonable to consider why kids are acting out. We should, in fact, do everything we can to keep kids in the classroom rather than face suspension when it makes sense. But the framework that built this policy comes from the Washington state Legislature. And that’s why you should be worried. Democrats passed a law implementing cultural competency standards and training for schools and school boards. The intent was to provide tools that will lead to “dismantling institutional racism in public schools.” If this sounds like language that would come from CRT evangelists, you’d be correct. Now it’s infecting every school district in the state, as school boards are undergoing training so they can implement these policies. The way to accomplish these progressive goals, as the Washington State School Directors’ Association notes, is by “supporting procedural and outcome fairness.” This means the outcomes must be the same. There you go. “Equality of outcome.” That is what “equity” means. They replaced “equality” with “equity” because of this. Everyone understood “equality” to mean “equal opportunity,” whereas “equity” is race-based communism. The data currently shows Hispanic, white, and Black students receive the most student discipline. None of the data suggests disproportionate enforcement, relative to their demographic share of the student population. … According to the Regional Education Laboratory’s (REL) Vicki Nishioka, teachers must lean into data on race when considering discipline. Looking at a REL study based on Oregon student discipline data, Nishioka implies all races should see relatively equal enforcement — regardless of trends in student conduct. That effectively means white, Black, and Hispanic students should see relatively equal disciplinary action, or there’s bias at work. “Implicit bias can lead educators and students to interpret the same events in two different ways, especially when they do not share common lived experiences or cultural backgrounds,” Nishioka writes. “Schools can address this by helping educators build awareness of their own implicit biases and learn about their students’ cultural backgrounds and perspectives.” In other words, to use the example from Veliz in the Clover Park School District, if a teacher thinks stealing pizza is wrong, it’s because of their own cultural backgrounds.
