Rutte, the BBC and World War III: an attempt at analysis of Rutte and BBC jingoism from December 11 in Berlin

Posted on by

Everyone will have lots to say about this. We don’t yet. We may use a multi-pronged spectrum with which to evaluate this statement by former Dutch PM and current head of NATO in Europe once there is more information about Mark Rutte’s speech as seen below. (Albeit paraphrased as the speech was not public but in a closed event from yesterday’s Munich Security Conference offshoot in Berlin. But clips are circulating)

Below an actual segment of his talk:

This BBC analysis of his talk has some wonderful jingoism:

Russia could attack a Nato country within the next five years, the Western military alliance’s chief has said in a stark new warning.

“Russia is already escalating its covert campaign against our societies,” Mark Rutte said in a speech in Germany. “We must be prepared for the scale of war our grandparents or great-grandparents endured.”

He echoed similar statements about Russia’s intentions made by Western intelligence agencies, which Moscow dismisses as hysteria.

Rutte’s warning comes as US President Donald Trump tries to bring an end to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, launched in February 2022.

Earlier this month, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin said his country was not planning to go to war with Europe, but it was ready “right now” if Europe wanted to – or started a war.

But similar reassurances were given by Moscow in 2022, just before 200,000 Russian troops crossed the border and invaded Ukraine.

Putin has accused European countries of hindering US efforts to bring peace in Ukraine – a reference to the role Ukraine’s European allies have recently played in trying to change a US peace plan to end the war, whose initial draft was seen as favouring Russia.

But Putin was not sincere, Nato’s secretary-general said in the German capital, Berlin.

Supporting Ukraine, he added, was a guarantee for European security.

“Just imagine if Putin got his way; Ukraine under the boot of Russian occupation, his forces pressing against a longer border with Nato, and the significantly increased risk of an armed attack against us.”

The BBC article gets way more intense after that. Its essentially the scene from Gone with the Wind when Rhett Butler tries to explain to the Gentlemen of the South, that the North has cannon factories and munitions factories and the South as a code of honour and some swords. So is Rutte’s pitch Face value” Or a narrative attack? Or a pitch for funding and power for NATO? I dunno yet.

One arm of one vector of analysis might be the UFO/UAP/Alien attack narrative that has appeared a couple of times on MSM US media such as 60 Minutes, and alleged counter-media such as Tucker Carlson. In other words, it is a grand cover to justify massive power gabs and reductions of human rights and individualism overall in Europe, or, it might be a face value threat of a grand scale war with a Nuclear power who will, if cornered, use them.

But there are other vectors as well. And I don’t know them yet. So wait and see. But taking it at face value seems to be the lowest probability answer, if not for the intended warnings, certainly for the reason these actions will be taken, if they are. This also may explain the sudden rise in the price of precious metals on top of other things like QE (Quantitative Easing) back in play in the USA.

But listening to that short clip of him directly, it could be interpreted as merely stumping for money and authority. ‘His organization is important and needs full power to recruit and equip’ in other words. Which would actually fall under the banal. Russia is where his 2 minutes of hate is directed, and everyone in Europe has to get ready to sacrifice their rights and quality of living to stand up to that threat. My guess is that would be where the ball is circling and ready to drop.

As we often do, we note that 1984 seems to have a pretty good description of the difference between wars as we knew them, and wars as they are and will be under a communist state:

In past ages, a war, almost by definition, was something that sooner or
later came to an end, usually in unmistakable victory or defeat. In the
past, also, war was one of the main instruments by which human societies
were kept in touch with physical reality. All rulers in all ages have tried
to impose a false view of the world upon their followers, but they could
not afford to encourage any illusion that tended to impair military
efficiency. So long as defeat meant the loss of independence, or some other
result generally held to be undesirable, the precautions against defeat
had to be serious. Physical facts could not be ignored. In philosophy, or
religion, or ethics, or politics, two and two might make five, but when
one was designing a gun or an aeroplane they had to make four. Inefficient
nations were always conquered sooner or later, and the struggle for
efficiency was inimical to illusions. Moreover, to be efficient it was
necessary to be able to learn from the past, which meant having a fairly
accurate idea of what had happened in the past. Newspapers and history
books were, of course, always coloured and biased, but falsification of
the kind that is practised today would have been impossible. War was a
sure safeguard of sanity, and so far as the ruling classes were concerned
it was probably the most important of all safeguards. While wars could be
won or lost, no ruling class could be completely irresponsible.

But when war becomes literally continuous, it also ceases to be dangerous.
When war is continuous there is no such thing as military necessity.
Technical progress can cease and the most palpable facts can be denied or
disregarded. As we have seen, researches that could be called scientific
are still carried out for the purposes of war, but they are essentially a
kind of daydreaming, and their failure to show results is not important.
Efficiency, even military efficiency, is no longer needed. Nothing is
efficient in Oceania except the Thought Police. Since each of the three
super-states is unconquerable, each is in effect a separate universe within
which almost any perversion of thought can be safely practised. Reality
only exerts its pressure through the needs of everyday life–the need to
eat and drink, to get shelter and clothing, to avoid swallowing poison or
stepping out of top-storey windows, and the like. Between life and death,
and between physical pleasure and physical pain, there is still a
distinction, but that is all. Cut off from contact with the outer world,
and with the past, the citizen of Oceania is like a man in interstellar
space, who has no way of knowing which direction is up and which is down.
The rulers of such a state are absolute, as the Pharaohs or the Caesars
could not be. They are obliged to prevent their followers from starving
to death in numbers large enough to be inconvenient, and they are obliged
to remain at the same low level of military technique as their rivals; but
once that minimum is achieved, they can twist reality into whatever shape
they choose.

The war, therefore, if we judge it by the standards of previous wars, is
merely an imposture. It is like the battles between certain ruminant
animals whose horns are set at such an angle that they are incapable of
hurting one another. But though it is unreal it is not meaningless. It
eats up the surplus of consumable goods, and it helps to preserve the
special mental atmosphere that a hierarchical society needs. War, it will
be seen, is now a purely internal affair. In the past, the ruling groups
of all countries, although they might recognize their common interest and
therefore limit the destructiveness of war, did fight against one another,
and the victor always plundered the vanquished. In our own day they are
not fighting against one another at all.

The war is waged by each ruling
group against its own subjects, and the object of the war is not to make
or prevent conquests of territory, but to keep the structure of society
intact. The very word ‘war’, therefore, has become misleading. It would
probably be accurate to say that by becoming continuous war has ceased to
exist. The peculiar pressure that it exerted on human beings between the
Neolithic Age and the early twentieth century has disappeared and been
replaced by something quite different. The effect would be much the same
if the three super-states, instead of fighting one another, should agree
to live in perpetual peace, each inviolate within its own boundaries. For
in that case each would still be a self-contained universe, freed for ever
from the sobering influence of external danger. A peace that was truly
permanent would be the same as a permanent war. This–although the vast
majority of Party members understand it only in a shallower sense–is the
inner meaning of the Party slogan: WAR IS PEACE.

[Bold is mine, although frankly the entire segment should be read till understood.]

We are not saying the above is exactly what is going on with Rutte and NATO. But it is a vector of consideration. It makes more sense than that Russia, who is in no need of Lebensraum, and in fact, kinda the opposite. They need more people for the room they already have, would attack the rest of Europe to take its territory. Viktor Orban describes the conflict with Ukraine as a regional and fraternal battle that the West under normal circumstances would ignore. Considering the West is in fact ignoring at least a couple of dozen of other wars, with far more heinous reasons and actions, Orban’s view deserves thought.

 

 

China moves Pawn to Liberal 171 CHECK – mRNA damage goes mainstream, UK thought crime inescapable, if people actually knew how bad it was: Links 1 for December 12, 2025

Posted on by

1. A Liberal MP launches into her part of the narrative attack. Carney wants to move Canada in with the COMINTERN EU and all its digital ID and other communist control systems. In order to do that, the Liberal Party in Canada has to maintain as much animus towards Trump as possible in order to capitalize on what vestigial patriotism they can.
Much like every other narrative attack against Canadians, they play both sides of their own dialectic. On the one hand, the nation state is an old idea and must be brought down, as Trudeau actually said out loud to the New York Times, but when they can manipulate patriotism to help achieve that goal, its a major bonus.
The same con to manipulate patriotism for a global Communist totalitarian single party system will also be used to justify major wars at scale shortly. Or at least one might think from some of the other statements by those in the various ministries of peace.

If anyone reading this cares to follow my account on X please say hi. Maybe with 2 or 3 more people we can get a game of duplicate bridge going.

2. Having watched the Egyptians throw over TWO governments in something like a year, it becomes obvious from personal observation that the ONLY way to overthrow a totalitarian state that reverses the relationship between a people and its administrators, is to hit the streets in the hundreds of thousands and stay there till the people paid to carry the guns against you change sides. that is it. That is the only way the people can win. But people have to recognize the state for what it is first, and have to understand that the cost of not doing this is much higher than the cost of hitting the streets. In our opinion, THIS is why they came down so hard on the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa. And to be blunt and clear, it was the most patriotic, and connected event in Canadian history. Everyone I have spoken to who was there, say the same thing. They felt a greater sense of being Canadian and connected to their fellow Canadians at that protest than at any other event in their lifetimes. And this includes any hockey games with Russia.

The fact is, had enough people joined it and had it lasted long enough, it would have brought a change in government. And that’s the reason they hit it so hard.

3. It is with zero pleasure that we continue to post the emerging realization that the Covid shots are, and do, exactly what we said they are, and do, since nearly day 1. This is NOT  schadenfreude or anything approximating it. This is (hopefully at this point) so that those who accepted the narrative on everything Covid will be more dubious at the current and proximal narrative attacks and they are coming and they will be worse. It’s obviously too late not to take any shots for those that did. And some people are still taking them, despite getting serious cases of Covid to this day, which is the #1 side effect of that gene therapy. (I know some people in that category) But the main purpose is to recognize the PURPOSE of the narrative and see through the next ones.

It looks like Trump has signed an order against Gain of Function research. of course, these have existed in the past, and they were not followed as far as I know. Also not sure this is the right way to proceed anyway. More constitutional protections from state mandates to take drugs etc. experimental or otherwise seems to be more the point. Also something the individual can know and control for themselves. To know that they have that inalienable right means they might fight back a little harder. Certainly in Canada but also to a lesser degree in the US, this has to be more entrenched in public consciousness.

4. Another “Conservative” MP has crossed the floor to the CCCP Liberal Party of Canada. I would really only have one question for him. “How many living relatives do you have in China today?

5. The UK has now implemented massive censorship measures, cancelled trial by jury, cancelled many local elections where Labour was polled to lose…

Like in Canada, after state intimidation and ludicrously, even illegal, although a more accurate term might be ‘extra-legal’ police or other agencies pressure on counter-narrative views, the victim is told they cannot even discuss what the state did to them or risk additional extra-legal pressures.

One Canadian example. A comedian who was taken to the dialectically named, Human Rights Commission and punished, and told he could not tell anyone what the punishment was or any details of the judgement. Please, please understand the gravity of this.

Here is the whole 7 minute interview with Guy Earl

Separately there appears to be an effort to push Europe (and Canada) into some major global conflict. That and the new edition of QE that Johnny U mentioned in the reader’s links for today may explain the rise in the price of silver. Both for a financial hedge against the planned devaluation of the dollar, and because apparently, you need 40 LBS of Silver to make one cruise missile.

I’ll post the links I have on that in later post. But for the moment feel free to post links of the NATO threats and other related links in the Reader’s Links or under this post.

Thank you all very much for considering this site as a place worthy of your time.

A brief quote from The Gulag Archipelago

Posted on by

Just putting this here:

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
–Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Mark Carney and the New Soviet style block of Canada and the EU

Posted on by

A couple of things about Mark Carney, now that the Soviet past of Kier Starmer has been exposed by the Daily Mail. (See our post from a few days ago)

A little note here before we get going on this list of prima facia evidences that a communist takeover of Western nations has taken place. A couple of the reasons people do not believe it, or cannot take it seriously, is that A. They do not know what communism is, and when their associates, friends and even relatives who escaped from behind the Iron Curtain try and tell them why they risked life and limb, left their families and friends and careers/jobs to risk it all in a free country, they are looked on as eccentric foreigners who don’t know anything about their countries of origins. I know. I remember thinking that way about a Christian Lebanese man who ran a diner back in the 70s and had a complete meltdown at me in his restaurant when I gave him some relativist garbage about Islam and Lebanon. Guess who was right there? HINT: It wasn’t the sanctimonious Canadian kid.
B. Because people cannot comprehend that subversion and infiltration could happen at the highest levels. For them I would recommend reading Diana West’s books, The Red Thread and American Betrayal.

And if that doesn’t do it, and it won’t because no one will actually read those books unless they are already receptive to the idea that the US has in fact been heavily penetrated by the COMINTERN already, then get the book by an ex Soviet ‘influencer’ at a very high level who had an actual epiphany and became a Patriot and a Christian, The Whitaker Chambers book called Witness. This reads like a spy novel as Whitaker was actually an excellent writer of propaganda for the Soviets, so when he decided to tell the truth about his life and subversive activities, he made it a very interesting and easy read.

And if you can’t get people to try any of those, this is a free audio book on YouTube called. School of Darkness, by soviet agent, Bella Dodd about the work she did to destroy the US by having pedophiles and homosexuals join the Catholic Church as clergy and creating teacher’s unions for the sole purpose of transforming schools into Communist indoctrination centres. She also repeatedly mentions the effort the COMINTERN put, into electing a Democrat President FOUR TIMES IN A ROW. This is a worthy book. For those that know how, download it to your phones or load it on your phones and listen while doing errands or walking the dog or what have you. This is communist subversion as it actually happened 101. Unlike Yuri Bezmenov and for that matter, George Orwell who tried to tell us how it will happen and what it will be like when it does respectively.

Lastly, in the UK during the Cold War, the head, the top guy, of one of the most mission critical British intelligence agencies, Sir Roger Hollis, Director-General of MI5 (1956–1965) was a Soviet mole. He taunted the Brits by having a photo in his office of the Ural Mountains taken from the wrong side. And although that was never proven, all the accusations fit like a glove. But Kim Philby, of MI6 (SIS) Head of the Anti-Soviet section actually was 100% PROVEN to be a Soviet mole.

  • A fully recruited KGB agent from the 1930s

  • A member of the Cambridge Five spy ring

  • The head of MI6’s anti-Soviet division, while secretly working for the Soviets

  • Personally responsible for the deaths of Western agents after he exposed them

  • Officially confirmed by the Soviet government after his defection

  • Awarded the Order of Lenin in Moscow

  • Buried with full KGB honours

He admitted his espionage publicly in 1967.

Now back to Mark Carney:

“Liberals” have snuck in a Digital ID app out of nowhere

As a partial aside, Moose mentions the Century Initiative and connects Mark Carney to it, but missed this, when Carney was a guest speaker at least year’s meeting.

The EU is a communist entity, like the UN. And suddenly Carney’s antipathy to the US makes perfect sense. He clearly WANTED to have a reason to disengage with the US specifically in order to become part of the new COMINTERN entity, the EU and UN. The US is resisting that for the moment. Watch the video above. Although this is not so much about Carney making money. This is about destroying your most fundamental liberties, even in your own head.

From 1984:

The purpose of Newspeak was not only to provide a medium of expression
for the world-view and mental habits proper to the devotees of Ingsoc,
but to make all other modes of thought impossible. It was intended that
when Newspeak had been adopted once and for all and Oldspeak forgotten,
a heretical thought–that is, a thought diverging from the principles of
Ingsoc–should be literally unthinkable, at least so far as thought is
dependent on words. Its vocabulary was so constructed as to give exact and
often very subtle expression to every meaning that a Party member could
properly wish to express, while excluding all other meanings and also the
possibility of arriving at them by indirect methods. This was done partly
by the invention of new words, but chiefly by eliminating undesirable
words and by stripping such words as remained of unorthodox meanings, and
so far as possible of all secondary meanings whatever. To give a single
example. The word FREE still existed in Newspeak, but it could only be
used in such statements as ‘This dog is free from lice’ or ‘This field is
free from weeds’. It could not be used in its old sense of ‘politically
free’ or ‘intellectually free’ since political and intellectual freedom no
longer existed even as concepts, and were therefore of necessity nameless.
Quite apart from the suppression of definitely heretical words, reduction
of vocabulary was regarded as an end in itself, and no word that could be
dispensed with was allowed to survive. Newspeak was designed not to extend
but to DIMINISH the range of thought, and this purpose was indirectly
assisted by cutting the choice of words down to a minimum.

We see this already in action. Talk to anyone who believes in a state narrative such as CO2 produced by human industry is destroying the climate, or conversely talk to anyone who buys into the various narratives that the mRNA injections were an untested experimental gene therapy or that there are no mass graves at residential schools etc. etc. ad nauseam. You will see how within their own heads they already cannot process information that is in opposition to narrative beliefs, even if you show them proof from climatologists or Pfizer itself, or the staggering lack of proof of residential graves and the total unwillingness to actually try to find any.

Now I have NOT Fact checked this following video. It intuitively tracks, and most likely enough of it is factual for its purpose, whatever it is. But it is worth watching. And if ANYONE knows for a fact that any of the claims in this video are true, or not true, or true with a qualifier PLEASE leave your observations in the comments. Some of this is easy public record though, so well worth posting. The thesis of this post of course is that Carney is a central component of the Western COMINTERN effort to take down individualist society, as he pretty much says in his own book albeit not directly. Instead he says Capitalism is the problem with the West and that Marx, Engles and Lenin are his inspiration. So this video belongs here.

Russia seems to be about the same as the UK in terms of freedom of speech and communism, the Global Warming dialectic attack, and competing contradictory narrative attack: Links 1 for December 9, 2025

Posted on by

1. So Russia is getting to be pretty disappointing for those who thought they were not doing exactly what the West is doing.

Please read the analysis at RAIR Foundation. The relevant 2 videos are below. It might be fun to figure it out first then read the analysis at RAIR.

2. Dr. Patrick Moore is a climate scientist and co-founder of Greenpeace:

In case you needed proof that the elites pushing net zero etc. are lying. And I mean lying, not just wrong.

Would be quite an ironic shame if it hit an iceberg, wouldn’t it?

3. This department of the Canadian government’s add is downright creepy for the insidious pretence of value of individual rights while the state obliterates all of them as rapidly as it can. Even ones we didn’t know were rights. Like the right to talk your own child out of being spayed or neutered after being convinced by a communist teacher that it will make them happy, or at least the cool kid in the class.

I should add that CBC demanded that Twitter shadow ban or delete accounts that they claimed were “harassing” their “journalists, when in fact it was people holding them to account for blatant narrative attacks and enemy propaganda.  And Twitter did. Further, they demanded Elon Musk remove the title “Government funded News service” or whatever it was they also said about RT News and others. They ended up going half way and calling CBC

  • Global News – on April 17, 2023, CBC accounts on Twitter started carrying the “government-funded media” label after Pierre Poilievre wrote to Musk asking for CBC to be labelled “accurately.” Global News

  • The Guardian – reported that CBC “halted its Twitter activity” after getting the label “government-funded media.” The Guardian

  • Reuters – documented that Twitter even adjusted the label to “69% Government-funded media” after Musk joked that CBC said they were “less than 70% government-funded.” Reuters

  • PBS / AP – also reported CBC “pausing” use of Twitter over the “government-funded media” tag. PBS

  • Michael Geist – a Canadian law prof who wrote a detailed blog post on why the Twitter–CBC labelling battle is more of a distraction from the bigger issues around government and media. Michael Geist

  • Snopes – confirmed that the “69% government-funded media” label on CBC’s profile was real at the time. Snopes

4. Quebec is engaging in variations of a problem-reaction-solution con again in terms of dealing with an Islamic public street prayer problem they created in several ways, by taking more state power to ban all public prayer etc. except Islamic.

People of course support these efforts because it is, in fairness to the public, very difficult to wrap one’s head around the fact that the state is no longer a set of organs for the people, but one now redesigned to obliterate any and all liberties, rights, and identity of the Canadian (and nearly all across the West) public.

Using the simplest Socratic method: If we compare what is actually happening in Canada (and across the West) to what we are told by the various organs of state, we have a decision to make. Is what we are told true, or the evidence of our sense. And in what way are they related, if at al.

And the answer is dialectics. What the state says is a set of tactics to achieve what the state actually does. But what the state says has nothing to do with what people think they actually mean. And this divide is getting so wide, we often find the apparatchiks of state mocking us and treating us with contempt as we continue to accept the various narratives, from killer bees to colony collapse, and from Ozone holes to acid rain to Y2K. When so many leaders got lazily caught violating their own covid mandated rules and regulations, we had to know it was a form of contempt,. Because it could only mean they did not believe their own propaganda. The masks coming off after a photo op. Politicians and friends arranging to have restaurants opened for parties.

5. In 1984, Part 1 chapter 3, a Party Principle, and the guiding principle of The Ministry of Truth (MINITRU) where Winston Smith works, is expressed as:
“He who controls the past, controls the future. He who controls the present, controls the past”.

We see this modus operandi by evil and anti-truth states manifesting constantly now, with agencies like the BBC, CBC, CTV, Global News and far more than I am aware of since I unplugged from broadcast media.

The land claims acknowledgements in Canada is of course a brilliant and obvious example, as is the total erasure (memory holing) of the Nuclear Winter narrative attacks to be replaced with the Global Warming one.

In the video below, we see a British subject noticing a small slice of this process and wondering why it should require him to fight and die in a real war which seems to have purely dialectical roots. He has noticed a narrative attack that has not yet been sufficiently memory holed for the coming replacement narrative attack, Self debasement for national identity to be replaced with a fierce patriotism to justify fighting Russia.

Thank you all for checking out this site.

The photo below is a close crop of a giant Polar Bear figure at an Ottawa Christmas Market.

I just wanna say one thing.

Polar bears would die about 100,000,000X faster from drinking fu**ing Coke than they would of global warming.

Starmer’s Soviet Communist past revealed all of a sudden, Canadian Dialectical ministry asks that people not take coffee breaks for Ramadan to be in solidarity with Muslims: Links 1 for December 8, 2025

Posted on by

1. Comrade Starmer! As desperate Labour rakes over Nigel Farage’s schooldays, we reveal the KGB’s toxic propaganda machine and the hard-Left past Sir Keir would rather we all forgot

Sir Keir Starmer was quick to jump on claims Nigel Farage used anti-Semitic and racist language when he was at school. 

After the Guardian reported a dossier of lurid complaints from more than 40 years ago, the Prime Minister insisted the Reform leader needed to urgently ‘explain the comments, or alleged comments’.

The claims made by more than a dozen former classmates of Mr Farage at Dulwich College in South London – which he strongly denies – are deeply unpleasant. […]

 we found that a young Starmer was a driving force behind an ultra-Left publication that backed a campaign to free a convicted Marxist terror chief – and may have become a tool, unwitting or otherwise, of the KGB propaganda machine. […]

Declassified Cold War security service files in Prague about other camps show the aim was to undermine Nato by identifying young high-fliers for potential future ‘exploration’ and use. 

Security experts have suggested that Starmer’s only mistake on this occasion was youthful naivete in signing up to a venture run by a totalitarian Communist regime.

But the MoS can reveal this was by no means the only time the future Labour leader brushed up against troubling influences during a period when, according to one contemporary, his politics were nakedly ‘hard-Left’.

It centres around a magazine called Socialist Alternatives, which was launched by Starmer and a small group of friends in 1986, just a few weeks before he crossed into Czechoslovakia to join his work camp. 

The publication was the brainchild of Benjamin Schoendorff, a charismatic Frenchman whom Sir Keir had met at the Oxford University Labour Club. Schoendorff was well connected in Marxist circles and arranged for the magazine to be fully funded by the Paris-based International Revolutionary Marxist Tendency. […]

But Richard Barbrook, an unpaid contributor, has said that while Schoendorff was the leader, it was Starmer ‘who got the magazine done’. 

He got all the articles in, laid the pages out, delivered it to the printers then collected and distributed it at bookshops, he said. ‘The magazine wouldn’t have existed without him.’

Socialist Alternatives criticised the Labour Party under Neil Kinnock – which voters eventually rejected at the 1992 Election – for being nowhere near Left-wing enough. 

Its editorials called for a ‘radical extension of common ownership over wealth and power’ and argued that ‘prisoners should have much greater control over the conditions of their own imprisonment’.

Starmer’s bylined articles variously attacked ‘the authoritarian onslaught of Thatcherism’ and called for a ‘nationwide campaign of struggles’ to reduce the European working week to 35 hours.

OK So the Daily Mail, which I can tell you does indeed not publish without making sure they have their facts straight, has exposed the hard core communist nature of the British Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet Prime Minister of the UK. BUT WHY NOW.

Is this the move from covert to overt communism?

2. Today’s short 1984 excerpt. We can each work out to what extent this short quote from the book reflects what has happened or does not in schools across the West today.

The family could not actually be
abolished, and, indeed, people were encouraged to be fond of their
children, in almost the old-fashioned way. The children, on the other hand,
were systematically turned against their parents and taught to spy on them
and report their deviations. The family had become in effect an extension
of the Thought Police. It was a device by means of which everyone could be
surrounded night and day by informers who knew him intimately.

3. Elon Musk earns the coveted VladTepesBlog, Ambassador to the Obvious award for this video

Of course, the people from whom Musk bought Twitter, did not agree.

4. Some Somalian doctors and engineers have found a way to try and convince the US president that they are in fact, good citizens and capable of valuable contributions to Western society. Naw just kidding. The are video taping themselves urinating on the side walk in a trivially symbolic way.

5. Canada: Federal managers in Ottawa IT department recommend 9000 workers stop coffee breaks for Ramadan

From Jihad Watch linked above:

Ramadan begins February 26, 2026. “Ray Edwards, then the department’s chief equity and inclusion officer” made the decision to call upon staffers to cancel their coffee breaks during Ramadan to “show respect” for Muslim colleagues was precipitated by the usual complaints from a Muslim group, the Muslim Federal Employees Network, about “systemic racism,” “Palestinian identity,” and “Islamophobia” — just the right buzzwords to cause leftists to freeze in their tracks and comply.

This is an important one. There is one VERY concerning aspect of what she said.

IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT % of the employees are Muslim.
What matters is no one gets to push their voluntary religious or ideological preferences on others.
We do not get to make Muslims eat pork, as it should be. They MUST NOT be able to force or even move the culture towards their prefrences.
And when a Muslim says “they cannot” we MUST interpret that properly. THEY CHOSE NOT TO.
 
Ramadan is a CHOICE THEY MAKE. We make our own.
All this is obvious to readers of this site. But I think the point would be lost on most people, even because of the way this woman framed it. The percent of workers who make certain religious choices do not matter 1% even if they are 99%
HOWEVER: What we do see, is an Islamic tactic of conquest:
1. Initially ask for ‘reasonable accommodation”. This looks like asking if Muslims at school or at work can bring Halal food as they prefer their own source food, as do religious Jews for that matter.
2. Ask that the work or school (institutional level) now provide halal food as it’s only fair if you have no fundamentals in logic, that they do so. If you do you would know that what is fair is that all people have food available and you can choose what you want from it or not. That is fair. Not that anything has to be adapted to your VOLUNTARY preferences.
3. Muslims then ask/demand that all food available institutionally be halal so that their own members, Muslims, won’t accidentally or otherwise, or even be tempted to eat food that is not through the Islamic supply chain, AKA halal.
4. Muslims demand that non-Muslims may not bring non halal food into institutions. And of course, their can be no institutions without Muslims in it, because that is Islamophobic.
Conquest complete.
The way this woman frames the problem actually allows this conquest.

The UK, Canada and Russia show a merging trend: Links 1 for December,ber 6, 2025

1. Canadians probably suspected all this, but this is an excellent bundle of facts which show the COMINTERN attack on Canada, financially, and in terms of prioritizing foreigners who, for the most part, hate our culture, people and values at the most core level.

2. American Vietnamese is about fed up with Somalis in the USA. Hard to find anything incorrect about what he says here at all.

3. So, it looks like it’s as bad in Eurasia Russia as it is in Oceana The UK in terms of freedom of speech and attempts to resist Islamic manifest destiny. No idea why but how can we explain this? A crushing disappointment to those who believe Putin’s Russia is a bulwark against Islam and totalitarianism.

The police detained 12-year-old Masha in Verkhnyaya Kurya for a poem against the construction of a mosque: deputy Matveev appealed to the Prosecutor General’s Office

(Machine translation from Russian)

State Duma deputy Mikhail Matveev announced the detention and interrogation of a 12-year-old girl in Verkhnyaya Kurya, Perm Territory. Previously, the reason was a poem that she published on the Internet: in it, a girl opposes the construction of a mosque in a village between an Orthodox monastery and a school. According to the deputy, they decided to check the girl for extremism, and for this they detained her near the school by two police crews. It is possible that they began to interrogate without their parents at the station. Matveev intends to contact the Prosecutor General’s Office for an assessment of this fact.

An initiative group in Verkhnyaya Kurya has been fighting for several years against the construction of a mosque in the Perm microdistrict. As deputy Mikhail Matveev writes, now «the main threat to the construction of a migrant mosque has been identified. This is a 12-year-old girl Masha». Last year, she wrote a poem, recorded it on video and posted it online:

«Rise up, my people!
A great rabble is coming at us
Against predatory strangers
That they bring us the darkness of centuries.
The whip is preparing for us
Terrible mosque
Against the formidable thief
Upper Kurya stood up.
Weaves a web of spiders
Black Mosque.
We cannot be moved, We cannot be broken.
Let’s live here in Russian!
Believe and sing –
Get away from us, mosque!»

Please do read at the source. If you have Brave or Chrome it will translate pretty well into English. The girl’s video is there as well and should appear here soon with subtitles.

This seems like a good place to mention this as well: Moscow Subway erects proud looking statue of Joseph Stalin.

4. Stephen Coughlin in an interview we did with him at some point this year, showed a chart he had made of the stages of the communist revolution that is overtaking the West. One of the steps of the ladder was ‘Moving from Covert to Overt”. Perhaps it’s time we placed an arrow there that says: “We are here”. Meanwhile, back in Airstrip 1 Oceana:

‘Frankly, a Very Authoritarian Government’: Labour-Led Britain Suspends Elections, Announces Rollout of China-Style Facial Recognition Cameras

Brexit leader Nigel Farage eviscerated the left-wing British government for piling depredations upon depredations on the British people, as they announced yet another postponement of local elections without good reason, on the same day they moved to roll out China-style facial recognition cameras.

Speaking at a Reform Party press conference, Mr Farage said of these “monstrous” changes:

…today’s the day we learn that there will be surveillance cameras not just in our big cities, but literally in every single village. The surveillance state is getting very, very close indeed.

And that, of course, in the same week that we learn the 800-year-right to trial-by-jury is to be abolished in the majority of cases… and of course despite not being in the manifesto, the government want to introduce digital I.D., leaving literally every single one of us in this country open to hackers.

And it is, frankly, a very authoritarian government. It doesn’t really believe in liberty, it doesn’t believe in individual freedom, and we learn it doesn’t really believe in democracy either.

Here is the whole presser by Farage. It is quite good so far. I will try and extract the salient bit above, but his excoriation of the BBC at the start makes it worth the time to watch alone.

5. Mark Carney’s Potemkin houses

I think the massive importance of this recent event will be lost to ‘journalists’ in Canada, and certainly to the general public.

First, let’s understand one famous aspect of Soviet history: The Potemkin Village.

Initially a tactic used by a Minister and lover of Catherine the Great, Potemkin would create fake villages to impress her in newly conquered territories of Crimea and other parts of expanding Russia. He would build facades of homes and businesses and move peasants around to look like these essentially Hollywood style Western movie towns were prosperous communities.

Lenin and Stalin ramped that up a lot to try and make it look like the various 5 year plans were working. According to Chat GPT:

the Soviets used the exact same tactic—and far more aggressively.

These included:

Under Lenin

  • Western journalists and delegations were shown staged “model” factories or farms

  • Horrific famine was concealed (especially 1921–22)

Under Stalin (especially the 1930s)

  • “Model collective farms” were built to impress foreign visitors

  • Entire regions were cleaned and staged before delegations arrived

  • The NKVD hid famine zones (e.g., Holodomor) from all outsiders

  • Potemkin factories were created to show nonexistent industrial successes

The most famous example:
Gareth Jones and Malcolm Muggeridge reported the truth of the Holodomor, but the Soviets countered with Potemkin tours for journalists like New York Times reporter, Walter Duranty.

This is why in modern discourse people often think “Potemkin village = Communism.”

Now let’s twig back to that excellent National Post article on Mark Carney from 2021:

Carney draws inspiration from, among others, Marx, Engels and Lenin, but the agenda he promotes differs from Marxism in two key respects. First, the private sector is not to be expropriated but made a “partner” in reshaping the economy and society. Second, it does not make a promise to make the lives of ordinary people better, but worse. Carney’s Brave New World will be one of severely constrained choice, less flying, less meat, more inconvenience and more poverty: “Assets will be stranded, used gasoline powered cars will be unsaleable, inefficient properties will be unrentable,” he promises.

I’ll leave it up to Canadian readers to determine if he is making good on his ambitions. but this story really struck me as a brilliant example of one of those who inspire him, Vladimir Lenin:

Personally I think this reporter is doing allowable counter-narrative. Carney, like all communists, does only one thing well, and by design. To create scarcity and destroy the products of human effort. and where possible to make that effort not worth doing. (perhaps much like feminism has made marrying women or having children simply not worth the cost-benefit?) This Potemkin village of Carney’s smacks to me of a sophisticated understanding of Lenin and Stalin’s history and probably reasoning as well. To look at it as a matter of mere corruption is a form of Hanlon’z Razor. This event is a pustule of Carney’s ideology. The Communist reasoning below the skin. The contempt with which he holds the Canadian public and our systems of finance, justice, rights and identity.

This little stunt of his reeks of the Soviet era Potemkin villages. This is to hide disaster by creating more disaster. Spending massive amounts of money Canada does not have to create the appearance of growing assets. Add to that, this is not something that should ever be done by the state in the first place. Which makes it even more Lenin-Stalinesque. The Canadian government should be allowing Canadians to prosper on their own productivity and then Canadians are able to hire people to build them homes should they want one. Instead, the state, starting with Trudeau Jr. began the process of massive developments under state control and financing, and now Carney takes it to the next level by claiming to do so and faking it at great expense.

Canada and the UK now appear to be front runners for the race to communist collapse.
