2023 and older. Mostly news, politics and The Covid Wars which I don't care much about anymore. I've changed in many ways. I no longer think that voting can fix anything or that the two parties (Canada or US) are different than each other. I no longer support cops. I believe that the only solution to Canada's issues is when Jesus comes back and sets up His kingdom here. Can't wait for that to happen!

  • Sounds Like Racism

    Photo from https://www.canadagoose.com/en/beyond/resource-centres-cambridge-bay/

    You can never expect Progressives and more precisely Canada’s State Broadcaster (CBC) to ever tell the truth … at least not on purpose.

    But when you read between the lines of this story about the postal service in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, knowing that CBC is lying, you can get a better picture of what is really happening.

    “I was accused of being a racist because somebody wanted a parcel and the parcel wasn’t in. I was called a f—ing qablunaq because I apparently took their job,” he said.

    “Being cursed because I’m the white guy who’s working away … how is that my fault?”

    The drama at the Cambridge Bay office comes amid a push by Canada Post to improve its relationship with northern communities. A new “northern strategy” will see the company meet with community leaders across the North to develop an improved approach to service, including bringing more Indigenous staff on board.

    “One of my deepest regrets was not being able to speak to our elders in their tongue…. That’s something that always bugged me.”

    These quotes give the actual story.

    • White worker
    • Native population
    • Accusations of racism against white worker because mail is late
    • Canada Post suggesting ‘relationship’ issues and working on those by removing white people
    • White dude does not speak their language

    CBC would like you to believe that the white worker is the problem (only white people can be racist.) But it is clear from the facts that the predominantly native population feel animosity toward the person who is serving them because he does not speak their language and is different, that is … he’s white. Switch the groups around and what do you have? Presto! Racism.

    Progressives will always cover for their pet groups and the CBC always lies. In any other setting, this would be decried as racism. Here is just ‘need to improve relations.’

  • US Politics. There is Only One Party

    If the 6000 page ‘stimulus’ bill has not taught you anything …

    At the very least you should see that both parties passed it through Congress. Some of the garbage both parties agreed to :

    • $169,739,000 to Vietnam, including $19 million to remediate dioxins (page 1476).
    • Unspecified funds to “continue support for not-for-profit institutions of higher education in Kabul, Afghanistan that are accessible to both women and men in a coeducational environment” (page 1477).
    • $198,323,000 to Bangladesh, including $23.5 million to support Burmese refugees and $23.3 million for “democracy programs” (page 1485).
    • $130,265,000 to Nepal for “development and democracy programs” (page 1485).
    • Pakistan: $15 million for “democracy programs” and $10 million for “gender programs” (page 1486).
    • Sri Lanka: Up to $15 million “for the refurbishing of a high endurance cutter,” which is a type of patrol boat (page 1489).
    • $505,925,000 to Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama to “address key factors that contribute to the migration of unaccompanied, undocumented minors to the United States” (pages 1490-1491).
    • $461,375,000 to Colombia for programs related to counternarcotics and human rights (pages 1494-1496).
    • $74.8 million to the “Caribbean Basin Security Initiative” (page 1498).
    • $33 million “for democracy programs for Venezuela” (page 1498).
    • Unspecified amount to Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Curacao, and Trinidad and Tobago “for assistance for communities in countries supporting or otherwise impacted by refugees from Venezuela” (page 1499).
    • $132,025,000 “for assistance for Georgia” (page 1499).
    • $453 million “for assistance for Ukraine” (page 1500).

    And $600 to Americans locked down.

    If you ever believed in a political party, this bill should dissuade you from that delusion.

    There is one answer to this. Ignore politics and build your own system. Best said by Brett:

    • Homestead
    • Grow your own food
    • Homeschool
    • Build up a your own support network of friends

    And most of all = Turn off your TV!

  • Hosts File Backup in Case of Nameserver Corruption

    Markku, a reader at Vox Popoli pointed out yesterday that the potential for a major internet blackout would likely involve corruption of the internet name servers rather than messing with IP’s.

    Here are instructions for Windows machines. (Sorry, I can’t help with Apple or linux.) Original text below.

    1.Using your browser, goto http://205.251.111.249/win/hosts and save the file that pops up as a download. Save it to your desktop to make this easier.

    2. Open File Explorer

    3. Navigate to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

    4. Right click on the ‘hosts’ file and select ‘rename’

    5. Change the name to ‘hosts_old’. (Markku says change it to ‘hosts_backup’ which accomplishes the same thing. ‘Old’ just makes more sense for me.

    6. Keep your File Explorer open, but move the File Explorer box around so you can see the ‘hosts’ file you saved to your desktop.

    7. Left click and hold on the downloaded file on your desktop and drag it into your File Explorer and drop it there. Done.

    8. To test that you got it right, go back to your browser and open emergency.voxday. You should see this:

    If so, you are good to go. If the internet starts not working and you can’t get onto sites you would normally be able to access, goto this page where Vox and his team will hopefully have useful information to help us through the blackout.

    Advanced. If you know how to edit the hosts file you could also add this site by adding another line:

    162.241.224.203 axehaft.com

    But if you don’t know how to edit, just leave it. Vox will point you in a direction.

    UPDATE: If you are a member of Social Galactic, there is an extensive thread offering help with other than Windoz devices along with tech help.

    UPDATE by Markku: There are some signs of things moving very fast and I believe there is a real chance of the internet really going down soon. We have discussed how this would most likely be done with the Ilk techies already, and it would be incredibly risky for them to try doing it at the IP level. There are so many critical services depending on IP.

    What is much more likely is poisoning the world’s DNS servers by Google, after which all the sites are still there, but you can’t see them, except ones that are specifically allowed by Google. The nice thing about this is that you can work around it, if you act before it happens. You need to store the necessary information locally, where Google can’t get at it.

    There is just one step that you need to do right now, before the internet goes down. How to do it depends on your operating system.

    If you are on Windows and you have never edited the file c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts , things are easy. If you HAVE edited it, you will know you have, because this is advanced use of Windows.

    You will need administrator rights to edit this folder in the file exporer. First, rename the old file called hosts, to hosts_backup. Then, put the file you download from the following link, as the new c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts : http://205.251.111.249/win/hosts

    Note that some browsers may complain that the file is not “commonly downloaded and may be dangerous”. On Chrome, click the up arrow in the complaint, and then “keep”.

    After that, you will be able to open the URL http://emergency.voxday and you will find further instructions there, in case you find that all other lines of communication have disappeared. Most importantly, there will be a new hosts file behind that link, that will then contain many more entries in it. For any site that has an entry, it will override what the system gets from the poisoned DNS entry. That will allow us to bring all our major services back. Also, if at any time in the future they pull this same trick, this will always be our response. So, you will probably want to keep the addition there. As long as it’s only that one additional line, it will not interfere with your normal internet usage. It will simply allow that URL to always be opened.

    Currently there aren’t any instructions in the link. But if internet goes down, they will appear.

    If you have edited the hosts file previously in Windows, or if you are a Linux or Mac user, then add the following line to the end of your existing file. Which on Linux and Mac is /etc/hosts . You will need root rights to modify the file. In most cases you gain them by adding “sudo” in front of the command. So, let’s say your editor is nano. You’d write “sudo nano /etc/hosts”.

  • How to Deal With Lockdowns

    I must admit that my 1st instinct is to rant and rage about unlawful government interference in my life. Lockdowns are the worst kind of interference too as they stop the people from providing for themselves while the government basks in their uninterrupted paycheques and corrupt payouts from those who support them. Lockdowns are wrong. Period.

    That being said, oppressive regimes are going to oppress. It’s what they do. Whether they got into power legitimately is questionable, but because they are there now, there is little the individual can do. Might as well make the best of it. Lockdowns are for crushing (and I don’t mean the human spirit.)

    Vox Day recently addressed this question during one of his live streams.

    He’s right. Huffing and blowing about something that you can’t stop, at least not at that moment is a waste of energy and hard on the soul. Better to not “worry about it. Read a book. Learn your culture. Go for a walk. Work out. Get some rest …”

  • Even if Biden is Sworn in …

    I’m reading and seeing a lot of despair in Trump circles and, more worrying, in the groups of people I circulate with.

    Why?

    The past 4 years have given Americans a respite from the savages at the gate. Did you think that was going to last forever? Please tell me you used this time to build, create and make ready for what will always be coming.

    Until the Son of God comes back and sets up this world under His power and control, we will always be under attack from Satan and his Promethean lizards. There will be years of plenty and years of famine. We should always be preparing for the lean years. The prosperity gospel has destroyed so many Christ followers by deceiving them into complacency.

    When times are good = build. Bulk up. Put up fences and fill the larders. Always be getting ready.

    When the lean times come, hunker down and enjoy the show. Enjoy the good things in life that you’ve stored up just for this time. After all, we know how this ends! Take comfort and enjoy the thought that God’s vengeance will know no bounds and the current evil ones will be crushed in the winepress of His wrath … and we get to watch! The show will be the greatest thing this earth has ever seen.

    If you have neglected building, start now. The change has been slowly accelerating, but there is still time to prepare. If you are already prepped … sit back and enjoy the shock and awe. It’s gonna be amazing.

    Take comfort.

  • Socialism Always Leads to Tyranny

    The government of Manitoba revealed yesterday that lockdown and health regulations do not apply to the ruling class … only to the common people. This should not be surprising as history show that communistic socialism (which is what we have here in Canada) always leads to a group of people taking everything from another group. It is class warfare. Watch how this tyrant calmly tells us why he is allowed to not follow the rules while we must:

    Tyrant ‘Dr.’ Brent Roussin telling the Pleebs the way rulers work

    This would also explain why so many politicians casually travelled abroad during Christmas without care while telling the common people that, not only could they not travel (or be fined/jailed) but they could not even celebrate with a friend or two.

    This situation reminds me of those verses in Revelation talking about famine.

    A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. 

    Rev 6:6

    To explain. The common people’s food will be very expensive but the rich or ruling class food will not be touched. I often wondered how this would be … just the rich being able to buy food because of their wealth or would there be more to it? Now I see how this could play out …

    You need to understand: the ruling class will take away everything you have, even food until you have nothing and they have everything. That is what Socialism is. The solutions are:

    • Shorten your supply chain.
    • Buy local
    • Grow your own food and animals
    • Become energy independent
    • Find a water supply other than the tap
    • Build your own network of people like you
    • Teach your own children the needed skills.
    • Homeschool
    • Learn a trade or needed skill for work
    • Learn to trust God’s Plan

    Above all. Quit looking to government and politicians for help in your life. They are all to a degree corrupt and they all want to have everything you own or can supply.

  • MeWe Hates You Too

    MeWe is being recommended as a FaceBook / Twitter replacement for depersoned Conservatives and Christians. My cousins just deleted their Facebook account (good for them!) and moved their family to MeWe. They want all us to move with them. No thanks.

    Looks like I made the right decision … MeWe hates us too. Find or build your own community, one where you can safely live and enjoy real friendships with likeminded people who don’t hate you.

    My goto’s are:

    Final rule. If they have a ‘trust and safety team’ … they hate you.

  • Leaving Twitter

    Stop feeding those that hate you!

    – Vox Day

    I’m deleting my Twitter account in 24 hours. Enough is enough. Twitter hates me, and if you are reading this, they likely hate you too. They tolerate us because we feed them. We give them our lives, our information, our families … our friendships.

    No more.

    Support those that support you. Pay a little to cut the chains of free spying. It is worth it!

    I met a LOT of good people on twitter. Many I consider my friends. I’m going to miss our conversations. Hopefully some of you will join me elsewhere to continue our chats! Either way, take care and be careful. If you knew me on Twitter and want to get in touch, hit me up on:

    or shoot me your contact info via my contact page here.

  • Dabbling in Cryptos – Coinbase

    As we watch the Reddit takedown of the fund managers in #GameStonk and the subsequent shenanigans with #Robinhood Trading (not allowing Redditers to buy more GameStop Corp GME,) I’m again amazed at how people think all these electronic bips and beeps are real money. It might be a method of transaction, but it is NOT money.

    God tells us what money is: keseph, which is literally silver. Almost every mention on money in the Bible is really the Hebrew word for silver.

    Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money [keseph]; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money [keseph] and without price. 

    Isa 55:1

    That is one of my favorite verses because it fortells us about Jesus and His gift that cannot be bought with money/silver.

    Back to Coinbase. So the Boomers are all trying to jump ship from the fund managers who are losing Billions of their money in #gamestonk … and where are they going? Cryptos.

    This is driving up the prices of almost all cryptos, but especially Bitcoin which is kinda the grand daddy of them all.

    So I dabble a bit; just gambling money and gains that I’ve ‘earned’ with it. And I have Bitcoin. So I want to pull out my profits from this burst of activity and increase in price … but I can’t, because the Coinbase website is broken.

    Is is broken? Or has trading been stopped to prevent further gains/losses or who knows what.

    The people who stopped the vote count in the US election are the same people who stopped the trading in #gamestonk. These parasites (grabblers) will do anything to get power and/or money. And they can get away with it because the US has allowed them to infiltrate and take over the halls of power. The #fakepresedent in the White House will do whatever the Prometheans tell him to do … and corruption reigns supreme.

    So is Coinbase really down? Who knows … and who cares. I’m just a dabbler. My real treasure is above.
