“The most perfidious way of harming a cause consists of defending it deliberately with faulty arguments.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche

You just linked to a template that has articles describing the various methods of misinformation and disinformation that exist, but present it in such a way as to say "HURRDURR WIKIPEDIA IS FAKE AND THIS IS PROOF." While very real consequences flow from Wikipedia being, as it calls itself, "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit," the best way to fight them is to change the respective articles and have screenshots and archives ready to go if someone maliciously reverts the article to a less factual version.

Joe Biden is following me. I go to lunch at Mickey’s Diner and he’s sitting two stools away, wearing a stocking cap and a fake mustache with a fake nose and glasses but he says, “Hey, how’s it going, fella?” It’s Joe Biden. So pathetic. Sad. He is conducting a destabilization campaign against me, putting chemicals in my food that make me behave erratically. Why? Because he and his secret cabal are terrified of what I represent.

My guiding principle from the beginning has been Make Earth The Center Again. Not the sun. Earth First. Ever since Pope Urban VIII failed to shut down Galileo and the fake science of Copernicus, Judeo-Christian civilization has been in steady decline. It’s the plain truth. That’s why the Pilgrims came to the New World, to escape solar-centrist ideology. Solar power is killing us. This country is on the verge of collapse. We are up against powerful forces. Did you know that James Comey is actually Jimmy Hoffa? People are surprised when I point this out, but it’s true. Same first names, last names of five letters. Just a Coincidence? No way. “Comey” was Hoffa’s code name in his Teamster days, short for “Comrade.” He knew the only way to beat the FBI was to join it, and now he’s part of the secret cabal.

So are Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi — note that their first names have five letters — and what is even more shocking: They are the same person. That’s why you never see them arm in arm. S/he has a dream: to become the first transgender president of the United States and take the “Men” and “Women” signs off every toilet including the ones in your own home so that anyone can come into your home and use the toilet for as long as they please, no matter who else needs to use it, and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. That’s why Biden and Jimmy and Schelosi are after me. Because 50 million people read my column every week. Fifty million. It’s the most-read column in American journalism since Robert Ripley’s “Believe It or Not” — that’s why I am paid $500 million a year and travel in a private train and am surrounded by heavy security at all times. Everywhere I go, people tell me they love my column — black people, Mexicans, Jews, women, people of all ages — and everyone I meet asks me, “Why not the front page? Why are you stuck back in Op-Ed? It’s so sad.” I’m in Op-Ed with all the wackos because the Deep State is out to undermine my credibility. But the fact is: I have been right all along. About everything. It all happened exactly as I said it would.

The Holy Father wrote to me recently, “You are molto perfecto, mio babbino caro. Infallibilissimo!” He knows the church made a big mistake not cutting Galileo’s head off when they had the chance. Liberals have always wanted mankind to feel marginal, an accident of evolution, not the center. The whole environmental “movement” is based on instilling a s Message too long.

I don't entirely agree with this chart (born in 84 and much more Gen-X than Millennial myself), but I think it's important that people know there are more than just two generations of people alive in the world today.

Not jews, just dumb fucking children. I'm sure every generation has said that the next was dumber, with a shorter attention span, and bad taste in everything. They were right. My parents were right about me, and my grandparents were right about them. It's true about this generation of youth as well: they are less intelligent, their attention spans are almost non-existent, and they have no taste in anything whatsoever.

Humanity is about to hit rock bottom. We've been in decline since WWII and this is the breaking point. The next generation will not be intellectually capable of perpetuating the species.

Given that I, as probably a few 7chan denizens, know a little bit about how cyber attacks work, when I see the Obama administriation expel 35 russian diplomatic staff and sanction a couple of private individuals and organizations, it spells out something very clearly: they have no fucking idea who is responsble.

They made no economic or digital attempts to prevent further incursions--by anyone's perspective the higher priority.

The sad thing is, I actually believe Russia did attempt to intervene on Trump's behalf--but the Obama administration is too incompetent to figure out how or who actually did what and has chosen the most useless of all possible options: expel all the suspicious Ruskys.

7chan has some of the weirdest shit. Link spam is one thing; but then we have bots like the one that posts nothing but anti-atheist comments as if it were having a discussion with itself. Then there was monotheism divinity; I actually kind of miss that greek muslim postbot. For a while there was this "artist" who posted various images with text strings from kusaba in a tiny font embedded in them; kept getting banned for treating any board like /b/. Odd shit.

It's not just 7chan though. Every website, provided its been online long enough, gets a trickle of crap from mentally ill people.

My workplace moved earlier this year after the old building was set on fire by contractors (quality is job one), and it took a few months for the mentally ill to figure out where we moved to.

Except genocide is ultimately futile now, humans are too numerous to effectively commit genocide anymore. You can kill a particular tribe of people from a region, but they've spread far beyond that region, to areas where you can't possibly kill them.

This is why anti-globalists hate globalism. The thought of genocide coming to naught because families have spread themselves across the globe fills their primitive monkey brains with dread. They go to bed at night fondling their automatic weapons and the thought that they have no ability to do anything except make the area they live even more of a shithole keeps them awake long into the night.

This is deliberate. Public education has been under attack since even before my time. It's hilarious that there's always some reason why the budget has to be cut meanwhile spending on militarizing police in quiet rural towns is out of control...

It's easier to manage a population that isn't self-aware. For example, did you know that by petitioning (at least) two thirds of the state legislatures, the people can call for a constitutional convention? and that we can ratify an amendment by a three-fourths vote in all states conventions?

Of course, so long as we are split exactly two ways on every issue and more focused on hating ourselves than solving our problems, that's never going to happen.

Every three days or so, there's dire news about Tesla's future, followed soon after by glowing sales reports or new innovations.

This stock is being manipulated by the media in a really predictable way. I'm thinking about investing at the next cycle.

When the USA was a free country, tyranny was limited because the US could take the moral high ground and stand up for freedom.

Now there is no limit to tyranny.

The virus was just a test run.

There is no limit to tyranny now because no one will call out abuses and there is no place to escape to.

Was Tim McVeigh a federal informant?

https://youtube.com/watch?v=zPrTLFBFc4s

I recently listened to this podcast which explores the book below:

Aberration in the Heartland of the Real: The Secret Lives of Timothy McVeigh, by Wendy S. Painting

tl;dr
* Tim was probably a paid federal informant.
* At least the FBI and ATF knew about it all along.
* The "bomb" as built couldn't have exploded.
* Tim stopped by an unknown warehouse before he dropped off the bomb.
* Tim claimed that the bomb wasn't supposed to work, or was supposed to just blow up some windows. He told his first set of lawyers that he thought the bombs were switched.
* OKC had cameras EVERYWHERE, and the building blown up was INSIDE a federal compound, not just an isolated federal building.

Good lord, go get some therapy.

I have the immediate cure for this particular symptom of your psychosis: go meet some people in Oklahoma.

There was nothing out of the ordinary that one of them filled up a truck with fertilizer, waltzed by a security gate, and blew up a government building.

The only wonder is that it's only happened once.

You could be right. Particularly about this:
>The exploitation they engaged in, as I see it, is in part A RESULT of their inability to compete with America
That's likely. It would have been great for them to have prosperous nations along their border, but they probably couldn't have sustained them--let alone the USSR itself. It was certainly more cost effective to strip their remaining resources, though not as profitable.
and this:
>You might say that, given how war-ravaged it was, there was nothing to take to begin with
Don't be too quick to put anything past the United States. We've done a good deal more than our fair share if international dickery, but only when the profits from doing so significantly overcame the costs. The USSR was willing to accept a thinner profit margin for immediate gains; we wanted countries that would depend on trade with us and be able to give us loans in the future.

It does seem very much like both sides took advantage of the opportunities they had to the fullest capacity they were able.

Why isn't anyone thinking like this in our Middle Eastern wars? Both sides keep swapping incompetency and half-measures while the situation only gets worse and the staggering costs continue to skyrocket.

Look on the bright side. Now that Russia has openly started killing citizens of the middle east, now they're going to discover what actual terrorism looks like, instead of just Putin's false flags.

They might even discover that their own citizens become disillusioned with being a perpetual underclass and start joining in.
