kunstler's monday post pasted here in total. he speaks of many realities, partially in my mind.
certainly a mass shooting in pittsburg isn't a welcoming family affair, but it leaves out why would someone shoot a bunch of jews. could israel, who sells themselves as the home of the world's jews, and their treatment of the natives of the land they occupied, palestine, have anything to do with this? no one says anything beyond hatred of jews. its like the cover half of the story and expect you to believe its all there is. the las vegas shooting is another false flag like many other 'shootings' we've been fed and expected to devour, but kunstler speaks of it as if it was exactly like the tv tells you.
the line between divide and conquer is hazy and getting more so every day;

For your reading pleasure Mondays and Fridays
The sad reality is that last week’s Pittsburgh synagogue massacre is
only the latest float in the long-running parade of ghastly homicidal
spectacles rolling across this land and will be just as forgotten in one
week as was last year’s Las Vegas Mandalay Bay slaughter of 58
concert-goers plus over 800 wounded and injured, a US record for
non-military acts of violence. The Pittsburgh shootings elbowed the mass
pipe bomber, Cesar Sayoc, out of the news cycle — but then Sayoc didn’t
manage to actually hurt any of the high-profile figures he targeted
with his mailings. What I wonder — and what the news media has so far
failed to report — is just how incompetent a bomb-maker Sayoc was. Fake
news meets fake bombs.
One of the strange side effects of an epic American political
hysteria is this strange ADD-like inability of the public to focus on
anything for more than a few moments, even the most arresting
atrocities. The hysteria itself is too compelling, like the actions of a
human limbic system driving the collective public psyche from fight to
flight on the wild horses of pure emotion. Reason has been discarded by
the wayside just as a super-drunk person will shed his clothing even on a
freezing night. Total culture war now beats a path toward all-out civil
war, with the looming mid-term election as a fulcrum of history.
The country is not “divided,” it’s sliced-and diced like a victim in
one of the Halloween bloodbath movies now so beloved by movie audiences
that they must be regularly updated. It’s hardly a stretch to say that
the US public sees its collective self as a throng of zombies lurching
across the ruined landscape in search of a dwindling supply of brains,
and they even seem to take a certain comfort in that endeavor, as though
the zombies were performing a meritorious public service ridding the
nation of as many brains as possible.
The Democratic Party could not be more in tune with this monster mash
of collapse politics. The party has been living in a haunted house of
its own construction for much of this century, and methodically adding
to its roster of resident blood beasts month by month in an orgy of
monster creation. They remind me of the chanting and stomping “natives”
in any of the long line of King Kong movies, summoning the giant ape to
the gate of their Great Wall so as to scare off the party of feckless
white adventurers from faraway Hollywood. Only in this edition of the
story, King Kong is the Golden Golem of Greatness at 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue, and it annoys him greatly to be summoned by these tiny savages
beating their drums. Of course, America-the Horror-Movie doesn’t add up
as a coherent narrative. And so the nation sinks into bloody
incoherence.
The Democratic Party war on white people and their dastardly
privilege has been the theme all year long, with its flanking movement
against white men especially and super-especially the hetero-normative
white male villains who rape and oppress everybody else. Anyway, that’s
the strategy du jour. I’m not persuaded that it’s going to work so well
in the coming election. The party could not have issued a clearer
message than “
white men not welcome here.” Very well, then,
they’ll vote somewhere else for somebody else. And if it happens that
the Dems don’t prevail, and don’t manage to get their hands on the
machinery of congress — then what?
For one thing, a lot of people get indicted, especially former top
officers from various glades of the Intel swamp. It shouldn’t be a
surprise, given the numbers of them already called before grand juries
and fingered by inspectors general. But it may be shocking how high up
the indictments go, and how serious the charges may be: sedition…
treason…?
These midterm election may bring the moment when the Democratic Party
finally blows up, at least enough to sweep away the current coterie of
desperate idiots running it. It’s time to shove the crybabies offstage
and allow a few clear-eyed adults to take the room, including men, yes
even white men. And let all the shrieking, clamoring, marginal freaks
return to the margins, where they belong.
