GAB Founder Says: ELON MUSK You Can Keep TWITTER

I remember during the past few years when real conservatives, Establishment CONservatives, RINOs, Donald Trump, and a host of others in the 'not progressive' camp would talk about alternatives to TWTR.  They would talk about:

• Parler
• Gettr
• Truth Social

Even though Gab has been out for at least 6 years, they would never mention it.  If I knew about Gab as an option, why wouldn't they know and or mention it?  The only person I hear mention Gab is Royce White, who mentions it as a landing place when he's talking on Steve Bannon's "War Room" podcast.

No one else mentions it at all.  The fix is in.  It's been in for a while.

Andrew Torba, who has had his platform de-platformed from everything, including all the major payment processors, sent out a great email about the news of the Musk "purchase" of Twitter.  Here's a sample:

"Elon can have Twitter.

People falsely assume that Gab is a “Twitter knockoff,” but this hasn’t been the case for several years. Functionally Gab is more like Facebook. We have Gab Groups, Gab Marketplace, Gab News, Gab TV, GabPay, and much more on the way. We aren’t and haven’t been competing with Twitter for years. Facebook users are our core target market.

We quickly realized back in 2019 that the vast majority of people in the United States are simply not on Twitter. The first issue is that over half of Twitter’s “users” are bots. The other half are young inner-city Democrats and journalists, but let’s be honest these people are basically robots too.

The bottom line is these aren’t our people. This isn’t our target market. The majority of people who remain on Twitter today will never use Gab because they will never survive in an environment with true free speech. There is finite number of conservative Twitter users who will make the switch, but tens of millions of Christian Facebook users who want off of Zuckerberg’s demonic plantation.

If anyone is doomed by Elon Musk buying Twitter it’s Parler, Gettr, and Truth Social.

The entire value proposition of Parler, Gettr, and Truth Social was being “not Twitter.” None of them even offer a free speech Terms of Service. In Parler’s case, they bent the knee to Apple and started censoring to get back on the App Store. In Gettr’s case, they ruined their reputation on day one by censoring right-wing political dissidents. Truth Social is a disaster that uses Silicon Valley AI to censor. Its main attraction–President Donald Trump–doesn’t even use his own platform.

I predict that Elon Musk buying Twitter will force the left to balkanize into niche platforms of shared values like the right has. We will see the Gab, Parler, and Gettr of the left pop up. I’ve been talking about the fragmentation and decentralization of social media into smaller niche communities for several years now and things are about to accelerate in this area. That’s a good thing. It means Silicon Valley is losing power and fast.

Bloomberg is reporting that Twitter’s source code has now been locked down to make it harder for current employees to make unauthorized changes to the platform. This tells us that Twitter’s Board recognizes the total and complete internal meltdown that is happening right now.

We’ve seen rogue employees and contractors at Twitter before. Remember the time a random contractor, not even an employee, deactivated the account of the President of the United States? Or how about the former Twitter employees who ended up being spies for Saudi Arabia?

Elon now has to deal with 7,500 far-left Twitter employees and I sincerely wish him all the best in absolutely clearing house and starting from scratch by firing every last one of the existing employees. Needless to say, this won’t be an easy task, nor will be upending Twitter’s policies and technology.

Aside from the internal war and struggle that Elon is about to endure at Twitter he will also face a variety of external attacks from the media, the government, the ADL, and Big Tech giants like Apple and Google who control Twitter’s distribution destiny on the app stores.

Apple’s market cap is 2.7 trillion dollars. Don’t think for one second they won’t ban a $44 billion dollar app like Twitter from their app stores. Fortnite is owned by a $28 billion dollar video game giant and was the most popular video game in the world at the time, but that didn’t stop Apple from banning their app from the App Store without blinking. It won’t stop them from banning Twitter either."

Torba has had The Top of the Pyramid pinch off his access to everything in the mainstream.  He started Gab, it became popular, the Eye of Sauron noticed, and they tried to destroy him and his product.

It's an impressive bit of perseverance on Torba's part.

He goes into it here, on Tom Woods' podcast:

Gab is there, ready to go.  As well as other features, they have Gab TV, Gab Marketplace, and a place to post without the Twitter mob of blue check SJW Wokesters trying to ruin your life if you think that men cannot get pregnant.

Think I'm kidding?  Even with the Musk invasion of Twitter, go on the platform now and demand that everyone understand that there are only two genders, and that one of them, males, cannot get pregnant.

Have fun with that.

Royce White Takes on Ilhan OMAR

A top NBA draft pick is running for congress.

The difference this time is that he isn't using his basketball popularity as a lever.  In fact, White has been blacklisted from the NBA.  He called them out on their refusal to acknowledge mental health issues in their bargaining agreement.  The contract he was told to sign stated that he was being hung out to dry if he had any psychological issues.

"Shut up and play" they said.  Apparently you CAN say that to a player, just not a player like Quing James, who spouts all the correct Globalist SJW Woke talking points.

Royce White told them to stuff it.  So they canceled his career.  That's conviction.

Now he's running for Congressional District 5 in Minneapolis.  Since the Floyd incident, it has been renamed "Murderapolis".  Not only is White upset about the decline and fall of his home city, he's angry that the Globalist Agenda is out in full force for all to see, and nobody is doing anything about it.

So he's decided to run.  

He's penned and open letter to Ilhan Omar, the incumbent.  She's a Democrat, and she professes to be a practicing Muslim.  White isn't buying it:

Good question.  Who are you people?  

Everything in Whites's letter drilled the issues down to their essence with all the right questions.

"If you're a practicing Muslim, how can you defend, if not actively promote, abortion and the LGBTQAI+ agenda?"

It simply can't be both. Let us in on the truth.

One of the questions people ask as These United States break apart is: 'What can one man do?'

He can do what Royce White is doing.

Elon Will Not Save You

Elon Musk buying Twitter is the new Big Thing.  It isn't the 'current thing', that title still belongs to Ukraine.  Putting the flag in your bio and pledging fealty to the good and wonderful democratic people of Ukraine is still the mandated online pose.

But the Musk / Twitter story is an interesting one.  The Narrative is already out there that Musk will 'bring back free speech', or 'turn Twitter back to the way it was' or 'Elon will save internet open discourse'.

It's all just the manufactured Narrative.  Musk isn't going to 'save' anything.  As you should know by now, someone that high up in the hierarchy is what's called a "Ticket Taker".  Musk has sold out whatever normal, regular smart guy DNA he had for a ticket to The Global Stage.

All of what you hear about Musk being one of the 'good guys' is fake.  This is from December 2021:

The rumblings of the Tesla financial mess have been out there for a while.  They're documented in the linked article, which I recommend.

The key passage by Concorda is this.  He nails it right here (underlined emphasis mine):

"How does a man who harasses whistleblowers, abuses most laws, rules, and regulations, supposedly has employees spied on, and advocates for a greener future while creating a huge carbon footprint become the most prominent, richest person on the planet? This is a question we’ll ask ourselves when the Musk bubble bursts, but the reality is we already know the answer.

Capitalism has morphed into extreme corporatism, modern-day democracy has become a plutocracy, and money has lost all meaning. This rise of plutocratic corporatism paired with ultra-cheap monetary conditions has created a breeding ground for bad actors and sociopaths to ascend to stardom.

Two types of people exist in the world today: manipulators and the manipulated. We all notice this at some point. We either resist the urge to become a sociopath or embrace it, rising through the ranks of the sociopathic power hierarchy. How far we climb up the ladder depends on our ability to outdo the competition. The higher we get, the harder it gets. Normal, compassionate people don’t go far. Some good eggs reach the upper echelons by accident. But at the top of the pyramid, that’s where we find the experts of perception management.

At the apex, you’ll find Elon Musk. He’s built his wealth, power, and fame by mastering manipulation and forming powerful narratives, creating the ultimate “dream factory” that appeals to both insiders in the U.S. establishment and the outside masses. He’s convinced society to fund a massive futuristic orgy, which grows based on making ever more bizarre promises that never come true."

Musk pushes the Globalist Agenda.  He's one of them.  To think he's riding in on the white horse to save the day, to rescue Twitter from the SJW morons who've destroyed it, is pure folly.

Enjoy the show from afar.  Apparently, Musk's role is to be the Globalist Narrative Court Jester, poking fun at the other Ticket Takers and getting millions of rabble to bite on the fake.  Witness:

This is epic trollery.  Musk dropped the mother lode of edgelord memetastic detritus right on Gates' lap.

I have to admit, his troll game is tight. Enjoy the show.

Woman Confronts World POWER

It's great to see Alice Walker remain so calm.

Walker was supposed to be one of the honored speakers at the Bay Area Book festival.  She got disinvited because - you can't make this up - she's friends with David Icke.

If you've read Icke's work, or listened to his talks (I've done both) you'll see that he asks great questions about where the Narratives that Control us come from.  That's about it.

Icke must get close to the truth because the Top of the Pyramid calls him all kinds of names, all the pejoratives that get the Normies angry.  The two they use the most on Icke are 'conspiracy theorist' and 'anti-semite'.  This one / two combo has enabled the powers that be to 'cancel' Icke long ago.

Walker, who has always been fiercely independent and outspoken, refuses to bend the knee and terminate her friendship with Icke.

For this, the Book Festival disinvited Walker.  Chris Hedges is all over it:

Don't forget, these are the Liberal Tolerant Progressive Democrat Bay Area 'good' people.  These are the people who are always telling everyone else how to be anti-racist, what medicine to take, to allow all immigrants, to be kind to the African American community.  In other words, they are the ridiculous cloddish charlatans who really have no beliefs, as they are quick to grovel before power, and scared to take a stand.  The modern 'progressive' is truly detestable as we will see with the excuse used to disinvite Walker:

Instead of asking Alice Walker about any of this, they used her name to get the attention of the Bay Area rabble, then took her invite away.  Icke brings up topics that make those in power uncomfortable, and calls out hypocrisy, so anyone associated with him must be bad.  Even Walker, a standard bearer in the progressive stack of multiculturalism, intersectionality, and diversity, can't be allowed to flourish.

The Bay Area Book Festival: sad, weak, pathetic, and useless.

Orange Man GONE - Forever War HERE

This isn't too difficult to see, but I'll lay it out there for all to see: 

The Pimps of War, who lost Afghanistan as a cash cow, needed a new venue.  Now they have it:

That second paragraph is exactly how it should be said.  These people are sick.  They need the Ukraine conflict to not only keep their fantasies of World Power / World Government alive, they use the American Empire that they stupidly built to line their pockets.

What hurts them the most, in my opinion, is that Putin! didn't bend the knee to the 'Rules Based Liberal World Order', and allow his country to be swallowed up by banksters and financial pimps.

It looks like a win - win for them.  Have you seen this?

While you're spending $5.25 per gallon for gasoline, trying to figure out how to cut food costs and wondering how in the world you'll save for your children's college, these sick pimps are out there in your name fighting for 'democracy in Ukraine'.

Can you see why they did what they did to Trump?  He wouldn't start a new war.  He called the Iraq invasion a "big fat mistake".  They can't have that.  The money, and this bizarre fixation on achieving a World Order (with them in charge of course), must continue unabated.

Trump couldn't be relied upon. Neither could Sanders.  Remember the so-called mysogynist "Bernie Bros"?

Hedges, who found Trump repellent, but is congenitally unable to lie, spells it out:

So now you have quagmire part IV.

But at least there aren't any more mean tweets. That has to count for something.  Right?

Sick or DEAD? It Was YOUR CHOICE

Remember all the BUG Juice mandates?  I do.  It wasn't that long ago that we were being told that we couldn't travel, go to work, go get a drink, or continue with our chosen profession unless we got the C19 gene therapy.

The PM of Australia says that if you got sick, or got dead, of the vaxx - it's YOUR fault.  YOU made the choice, and we all are responsible for our own selves.

Witness:

“We’re all responsible for our own health. When it comes to informed consent and giving consent to whatever procedure or treatment that you may have, or I may have, then I’m ultimately responsible for whatever people may do in their health treatment to me. And there has been the opportunity for people to visit their GP, to have that consultation, the government has provided that and funded that. And the informed consent process provides the decision to the individual. That’s the sort of country we live in. People make their own decisions about their own health and their own bodies.”

-- Prime Minister Scott Morrison

Got that?  It's your own fault if you got the jab, and you got sick, or you died, or your son is irreparably damaged.  You made the CHOICE.

At this stage, it's difficult to see how anyone believes these people.  Think about any issue: climate, supply chains, energy, education, taxation, transportation ... you pick.  You going to believe what they say?  Will you still believe the Official Story?

I don't think you should.  They will make you do something, then, when it goes bad, they'll cut you loose and say it was your choice.  "Your fault citizen - you should have been more careful!"

Incompetence or PLAN?

One of the raging debates sweeping the nation is: "are our 'leaders' incompetent or are they managing a collapse?"

I think it's 15% incompetence, 85% planned.

As the greatest Conspiracy Theorist of all time noted, 'behind every ruler is the Priesthood.'

The current energy crisis lends credibility to this thesis.  If you starve the hydrocarbon industry  of funds, they can't explore or produce.  You pinch off exploration, you're going to get fewer barrels of oil, less natural gas, less diesel, less coal, and you get a shortage.  This isn't complicated.

Adding to that, you yell at the world about 'global warming' - er - 'climate change', and you broadcast your message through this paragon of engineering, intellectual elite Scandinavian person:

Is Greta a scientists of any sort?  Remember, if you slightly questioned any of the Progressive maxims over the past few years (global warming, BUG19, vaxx efficacy, HIV => AIDS), you were instantly explained away as 'not a scientist' or Karen screamed at you to 'follow the science!'.  But in this case, we're supposed to take 'Greta' seriously because ... why?  Every once in a while I ask some Progressive Follower of The Current Thing why Greta gets a pass on the "not a scientist" paradigm.  It's great fun watching the physical and intellectual contortions.  I recommend it.

By the way, $5 trillion is an excellent grift.  Someone made a ton of money.  I didn't. So there's the money angle.

Irina Slav is wondering about the incompetence part of these obviously ridiculous and stupid decisions when it comes to energy:

The 'renewable energy' move is physics-ally impossible.  As in, the laws of physics prevent it.  Yet, the EC Green Deal president is tripling down on wind power.  Looks like an incompetent bit of decision making to Ms. Slav, an authority on energy.  Perhaps she's right.  It opens up good questions.

Where is the concrete coming from?  Where is the steel coming from? Where is the aluminum and copper wire coming from?  Who is making the non-recyclable plastic blades' and in which landfill will they go?  

Steel and concrete production are the two largest contributors to carbon emissions in the world.  And these are the people who are constantly talking about Climate Change while traveling in private jets and making decisions like these?

So you've disrupted supply chains, caused runaway inflation, which have lead to food shortages and riots in: Sri Lanka, Peru, and China ... and the answer is to build more windmills?

That isn't incompetence.

Especially, when you temporarily have the largest windmill producer do this:

Yes, COAL.

In other words, the dirtiest fuel in the world will hold it down until we can do what should be a decades long energy transition, in 8 years.

Lets's leave out the fact that all the previous energy transitions have happened organically, because of Energy Return over Energy Invested ratios that worked.  None of them happened by government fiat.

This one won't happen either - not without incredible levels of hunger, inflation, and riots.

Apparently, more pain is required.  Whatever pain is happening now isn't enough.  And it doesn't look like 'incompetence' to me - a broken down English teacher in the bad neighborhood who is so far away from the Top of the Pyramid it isn't even funny.

Gary North

It was in the Fall of 2010 and my libertarian phase was just beginning.

I don't remember how I got wind of Gary North's work, but I remember reading his articles, probably on Lew Rockwell's site first, then on garynorth.com.

What I found on his site, and in his writing, was an abundance of economics, history, and politics.  He'd been on Ron Paul's staff in the 1970's as the chief economist.  As an early stage libertarian, that was the credential of all credentials.  

North wrote 4 articles a day (!), and they were all interesting to me.  Each one, particularly the ones on American History and Austrian Economics, was a deep dive into the topic.  There was no fluff.  His writing style was great: short, terse sentences that wasted no words.  Declarative sentences that spoke of things other sites would call 'conspiracy theory'.  Economic ideas that other sites wouldn't touch, as they were free market based and ruined the economics of the Regime / University.

North's site was the site where there were many firsts for me.  He was the first person I read who spoke of revisionist history / conspiracy in plain terms.  Remember how the Gulf of Tonkin was relegated to conspiracy kook world until around 10 years ago?  North had been talking about it for decades.  Many things that are now grudgingly accepted in the main, like FDR pushing for, and causing WWII by his treatment of Japan, were written about by North since the late 1960's.  Who was this old guy writing this stuff on this Web 1.0 site, in this volume, with this huge subscriber base?

Then I became a subscriber.  North's site was the first site I paid to read.  I had never even considered such a thing before.  His site set the tone.  Now, with substack going full blast, paywalls the norm, and subscriptions services galore, North looks even more prophetic.  Back then I would wake up before everyone else in the apartment, fire up my HP desktop PC, and go to GaryNorth.com.

There was something else that caused a major internal change.  North was a devout and unabashed God Fearing Christian.  Over the years, most of the smart, based, thoughtful, fearless, and honest people I read are all religious.  The last few years I have noticed this pattern emerge.  North was the first.  The early stage of my spiritual journey began concurrently by Dr. North casually mentioning that the most important thing was ones service to God.

As a NYC liberal, this was a paradigm shift to say the least.

The first big changes in my head and heart are owed to this man.  

Gary North died on February 24th, 2022.  Being who he was, independent to the end, when he got cancer he followed the Gerson Therapy rather than run into the arms of Big Medical and their corrupt embrace.  He documented this holistic journey for years.

There is a fantastic written eulogy here.

For me, this is the key section:

Here is a sample lecture.  Do as you say you will do.  Do it on time. Do it at or under budget.

Go thou and do likewise.

In FRANCE, of all PLACES

Things are getting interesting.

As recently as 2015, if you'd heard any gov't official say something like this, it would have been like dropping an atom bomb on social media, and the Corporate Press would have gone ballistic:

Speaking out against multiculturalism?  I thought that was heresy.  

It's fascinating that this is from France, a country that began bringing in colonial territory foreigners decades ago, and then allowed its leaders to flood the place with more.

Apparently, not all cultures are created equal.

Part of the issue here is that everyone knows that the 'all cultures are equal' thing is a scam.  Traditional Christian old world French culture is not on the table.  Talking positively about it was simply not allowed.  This upcoming French election cycle is getting interesting, as the previously forbidden things are getting spoken about and are stated loudly:

Vox pulled the key quote from the article and put it on his heavily trafficked site:

"Former French intelligence chief Pierre Brochand warns that unless Europe and France radically change their policies on mass immigration, civil war could break out, asserting, “all multicultural societies are doomed.”

Brochand, who served as director of the French DGSE from 2002 to 2008, made the comments during an interview with French newspaper Le Figaro. “All ‘multicultural’ societies are doomed to more or less deep rifts,” warned Brochand, adding, “In such a situation, it happens that minorities are violent winners, and majorities placid losers.”

The negative impact of mass immigration on France can no longer be dismissed because it is “increasingly difficult to prevent the French from seeing what they see,” and also because “a breakthrough personality has suddenly appeared in the formulaic world of politics that has encouraged them to open their eyes,” said Brochand.

The ex-intel chief predicts that if Emmanuel Macron wins the presidential election and fails to massively alter his approach to immigration, civil war could ensue. “This gradual upheaval of the French population, if not the only challenge we face, is the only one that directly threatens civil peace on our territory,” said Brochand, warning that Muslim migrants and others from outside of Europe have developed a “spirit of post-colonial revenge.”"

Revenge.  That's the word I have always used.  When people would gush about 'multiculturalism' and 'diversity', they weren't talking about the world I grew up in here in NYC, where we would have friendly pot luck lunches at PS 84 rife with different foods, after we stated the Pledge of Allegiance.  

That was then.  The current style of 'diversity' always looked and sounded like 'revenge' to me too.

Brochand actually said this out loud, in the mainstream press.  In France, of all places.  Looking at the Viktor Orban win in Hungary, the Vucic win in Serbia, the rise of Bolsonaro, 87% of the world's population NOT condemning Russian intervention in Ukraine, it's telling you that nationalism is on the rise.  

The grey part of the map doesn't have an issue with Putin and Russia going into the Ukraine.  Those countries represent 87% of the world's population.

In closing, things are changing.  The 'New World Rules Based International Order' (NWO for short), is on the defensive.  The absurd policy of 'Invade the World, Invite the World', is ending.

Physics Defeats PLATITUDES

I stole that title from Doomberg.

There are reasons why we are living in this world:

If you decide that you will, as a governmental policy, do what feels good: "fight Climate Change", instead of what is required to run a first world society, you will get a hard lesson in physics.

In order to charge your iPhone, drive around town, fly to your vacation, or flip a switch and turn on the light - you need energy.  If your choice of energy is 'carbon free', then you need what are being called 'renewable energy': namely wind, solar and battery power.

There are two things we are paying for because we don't understand physics.  In order to be 'carbon free' via batteries and renewables, those materials have to be mined from the earth.  The main ingredients for batteries are:

• Copper
• Nickel
• Cobalt
• Lithium
• Graphite

The second thing we are paying for is a lack of investment in fossil fuels during the recent past.  Energy is measured in BTU's, and without enough 'juice', our modern world can't run.  It feels good to say we need 'green' energy, but it isn't realistic, and physics will trump platitudes every day of the week.

Massif Capital just came out with this dirty little secret in its latest letter (emphasis mine):

"The dirty little secret no one tells you is that the carbon free economy is not free of environmental impact, the impact is just different. Your Tesla requires the mining of 90,000 lbs. of material to extract the necessary ore for 1, one-thousand-pound battery. We are not getting rid of environmental impact; we are changing the impact we are having. An important distinction people fail to recognize.

This is an important under-discussed reality. It is well understood what the possible outcome of raising temperatures caused by GHG emissions are, but no one seems to want to discuss the impact of the widely accepted solution. Another example from our paper Failure to Impact:

Building a single 100-MW wind farm requires 30,000 tons of iron ore, 50,000 tons of concrete, and 900 tons of nonrecyclable plastic.[1] A 100 MW solar development requires cement, steel, aluminum, and glass 150% greater than the wind farm.[2] The 1,000-pound lithium-Ion battery one would find in most electric vehicles requires roughly 25 pounds of lithium, 30 pounds of cobalt, 60 pounds of nickel, 90 pounds of copper, 110 pounds of graphite, and 400 pounds of steel, aluminum, and various plastic components.[3] In total, mining firms will need, on average, to extract about 90,000 pounds of ore to produce that volume of useable material, much of which will be extracted using mining trucks that can haul 400 tons of material in a single load and get a sporty 0.3 miles per gallon of diesel."

What this means for the regular person is that our unserious leaders have no idea about physics, nor do they have any idea where stuff comes from.  Not mentioned above is solar energy.  Where is the polysilicon that makes up solar panels coming from?  There are 3 poly silicon plants left in the USA.  China has a stranglehold on that industry now, as the Globalists have hollowed out the manufacturing base here in the U.S.

The so called 'green' movement is continuing to make everything more expensive for you.  Doomberg will provide you with one more example regarding oil:

That was posted in January 2022.  I work with someone who thinks that her high gas prices at the pump are from "greedy oil companies".

I took a shot at explaining to her that those "greedy oil companies" have been blocked at every turn by screeching environmento-malthusians who have zero concept of what it takes to make things work.

I made no progress.  You'd think I'd have learned by now.

Anyway, as you can see from above, the obstruction of oil and gas continues.  Things will continue to get more expensive, and eventually gas here in the USA will cost $6.95 a gallon.

That's going to hurt.  But, as Doomberg tweets regularly about how long it will take to make things change: "More pain required."

The NWO Takes the L

The cracks in the Globalist Rules Based Neoliberal Order (or whatever the current nomenclature is) keep widening and increasing.

Here's one of the biggest shifts, courtesy of Irina Slav, a great writer on the energy markets:

The International Energy Agency is one of these globalist outfits, along with the World Economic Forum, Bank of Int'l Settlements, the UN, who are the ones who we are supposed to look toward for the 'right' information, and in the IEA's case, about energy.

The IEA has, every year except 2020, underestimated the demand for hydrocarbons, particularly oil.  They are always telling us that because of the so called 'green' agenda, the need for oil will subside.

It's almost as if they think if they say it enough, it will come true.

Eventually, reality intervenes.  We are seeing that now.

"Then came the COP26 conference where large oil and gas consumers raced to outcommit each other on emission reductions. Biden’s SPR oil releases started and failed to make a lasting difference in petrol prices. Then Russia invaded the Ukraine and the West started pouring sanctions on Moscow. The oil-producing part of the East, meanwhile, kept quiet and distanced itself from outright public condemnations.

And then, after the latest series of calls for more oil, it appeared that OPEC had had enough.

"I think in COP 26 all the producers felt they were uninvited and unwanted but now we are again superheroes, it’s not going to work like that," the UAE’s Al Mazrouei said earlier this week, as quoted by Reuters. He then went on to explain that OPEC+ needed to replace some 5 to 8 million barrels of oil production daily just to keep output at current levels.

Separately, speaking to CNBC, Al Mazrouei said it was becoming increasingly difficult to maintain order on the oil market and boost production in line with demand.

“For that to happen, we need resources – financial resources – we need to invest and we need to decouple politics from energy availability and energy affordability,” he said."

Here's what happened.  For years, you had everyone demonizing oil and gas.  The Corporate Press, Social Media, and the NPC's (see previous post), were howling about 'clean energy', the 'green' agenda, 'zero emissions', and 'divestment' in the energy sector.  The NY State Teacher's Retirement System made a big show of divesting from oil and gas companies.

Fast forward to today.  Demand for energy is raging.  The COP26 rhetoric is meaningless and forgotten. The EU needs energy - badly.  As demand rises, supply has been curtailed because of the lack of investment.  In other words, the energy sector has been starved of capital, unable to explore or drill, and been told that its product is obsolete.

I'll let you in on a little secret. You will be using oil for the rest of your life.  So will your children. 

Now that prices are skyrocketing, the same people who demonized hydrocarbons have shown up, angry that the supply is low, and prices are high.

OPEC + has simply said we're not taking it anymore.  They started this week by jettisoning the IEA as a source of anything.  They don't even want it to count barrels, or project demand.

Neither China, India, Iran or Russia are on board with the Laptop Class' obsession with renewables.  They are all building more capacity for Oil, Gas, and Nuclear.  They don't care what the weirdos on Twitter have to say.  The irony is that Twitter won't work without electricity.

The battery powered cars, and green energy clownishness not only won't work, it can't work.  Renewables don't produce enough power, and never can.

Every time you think batteries and a 'green' world, think of this image:

The NWO keeps taking losses.  This is a great thing.

UPDATE:

Bison Interests just recorded a webinar on The State of the Oil Market.  Put it under the heading of "Reality Therapy".
