The Doncic - Harrell Non Reaction by Media is Intentional

Luka Doncic and Montrezl Harrell had a slight altercation the other day in the NBA playoffs. The Corporate Media's non-reaction wasn't an oversight. It wasn't a 'mistake'. The obvious double standard that we all can see is intentional.

It's intended to divide. THEY use all media and sectors of not only society, but your brain in order to get you to argue with your neighbor. If you discuss and debate with your neighbor, then go out for a meal together, the Corporate Media hates it. 

Don't think for a minute that THEY don't know what they're doing. They do. You don't have to play ball.

Overplaying Your Hand - NBA and MLB Edition

We are witnessing some of the worst decision making in the history of business. Professional sports, particularly the NBA and Major League Baseball, has lost its collective mind. They are going full bore Woke. The league, from the top executives on down, is canceling games and refusing to play. By reacting to Woke Twitter and the whims of BLM, pro basketball and baseball are doing what will be seen in the future as audience destroying moves.

No one cares what basketball players think about politics. Especially when their "take" is the same take as woke media, woke capital, and woke everything else. They have the coldest takes out there, and they're punishing their fans by virtue signaling and denying their (dwindling) fans the product

As I write this the NBA players are playing in "the bubble". Now we see that it's both a literal and a metaphorical bubble.  One has to be oblivious to reality to think that the SJW narrative plays well with fans.

More From Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

How to navigate the maelstrom of narratives swirling around you.

The Kennedys are are seen as heroes in recent American history.  Kurt, one of the best posters on locals said: "RFK Jr. is the one rogue Kennedy who tries to blow the whistle on the CIA and Allen Dulles. Of course, the wikipedia for him will include in the first sentence that he's antivax, which discredits everything he's ever said."

It's funny because all he ever says is that vaccines should go through the same vetting process that everything else does. It's a pretty mild take, but because vaccines are the Religion of the Prog, one must never do anything but genuflect before them.

This is what you're never supposed to notice.  Big Pharma, the evil specter of the Sackler family and other Pharmaceutical trans national corporations, is a money grubbing capitalistic horror show.  This is spoken of openly by the NYTimes, CNN, New Yorker crowd.

Unless you're talking about vaccines.  Then Big Pharma the second coming of Jesus and your'e a sick weirdo for even bringing it up.

This cognitive dissonance is what you're supposed to accept.  You're not supposed to ask any questions. You're supposed to stay quiet.

They will ruin your finances and health if it allows them more money and power.  You're a member of the herd, according to these people.  You're tax cattle.  Your job is to be sheared and then slaughtered. The dark irony of it all is that they can rely on the 80% of the population that is ballast to do their public relations for them.

Think I'm wrong?  Put it out there on FB that you think vaccines should be vetted, and the corporate connections be analyzed.

Let me know how that works out for you.


From Youtube:

Nephew of President John F. Kennedy, son of Robert F. Kennedy, and tireless crusader against the tyranny of the mainstream medical establishment, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. joins today's Liberty Report to discuss his startling discoveries about who really killed his father and uncle...and why. Plus, Mr. Kennedy, an environmental lawyer, has been among the most vocal and most successful opponents of the mainstream medical establishment, driven by big Pharma to inoculate and medicate everything that moves. He tells the Liberty Report how he very reluctantly decided to dedicate his career to fighting the mandatory vaccines that have resulted in so many documented injuries to the recipients.

Schooled Into Oblivion

Let's look at recent events in the NBA.

This is a picture of the Milwaukee Bucks giving a press conference, talking about their demands for law enforcement and government in Milwaukee.

Of course, the first thing that you look for in the clown world today is the fact that they're not 6 feet apart. You should know that we're retrofitting schools (at great expense) and other public areas so that desks are a minimum of 6 feet apart. Why are they exempt?  Where are the Karens and blue check Twitter types screaming into the sky?

The other manifestation going on here is that you have a bunch of people who have hit the genetic lottery and are tall, fantastic athletes, and have been catered to their entire lives. That's all I see.  When you read their demands, you'll see that tucked away at the end there is to vote on November 3rd. I wonder for whom they wish you to vote?

What you're witnessing is a society that has been schooled into oblivion. These NBA players have been showered with affection and told they’re wonderful their entire lives. They believe that because they’re popular and rich, that they have a louder and better voice than the regular working person. Not only that, you see how they are standing there as if they were in a church praying that they, through their prayer, can get their will done. They resemble a bunch of progressives 100 years ago praying that the effects of ‘demon rum’ will be thwarted.

It's a long story, but the destruction of American Civil society particularly the forces that were identified during the Reece Commission in the 1950s, have begun to bear fruit. You have the complete obliteration of religion, replaced by what you see in the picture above. You have an entire dismissal of the concept that one is supposed to do some research and find things out first, before you shout out your uninformed take.

The berserk apotheosis of all of this is personified in the figure of LeBron James. Because he is the best basketball player on the planet he has been taught, and we have been taught in our schooling, that his opinion and his views are better than others. This is a man who didn't go to college, has no degrees that I know of, yet he is seen as the standard bearer.  If he were to speak in public and have unpopular opinions on COVID lockdowns, the first thing they'd say is that he's "not an expert".  But somehow in the realm of sociology, law enforcement, policing and political science, he's a God. And no one says a word. Ok.

The incredible emptiness of what's being said and done, particularly in the sports world, is easy to identify. You have the complete gutting of a rich, dignified, intellectually rigorous system engineered to create thoughtful students, and you've had it replaced with programs that sound good.

To think that the Milwaukee Bucks team has any say or any clout over the Wisconsin legislature or government is laughable. But these people have been taught that popular sports players and figures of authority are different and better. As John Calvin preached, the Bucks NBA roster are members of the ‘Elect’, and you are a lowly peasant.

This incident in Wisconsin is a microcosm of many things, including the recent news that players are talking about stopping play or shutting down the NBA season / playoffs. Only a group of people schooled into oblivion and completely bereft of regular life in America could come up with such a thoughtless, spoiled, and infantile reaction.

Let them shut the whole thing down. This brand of clueless and arrogant ignorance has only one fix, and it’s the one they’re suggesting. Let them do it. The ancient lesson of hubris, shown in classics like The Odyssey, will emerge. That’s one of the lessons they used to teach in school.

On Masks and Sneetches

How long will you wear the mask?

This question is a good one. It makes the cultists speak the truth, as if they'd been given truth serum. 

The world famous parable of the Sneetches is a good one for today's times. It shows you the plan - and explains it in terms a child could understand.

NYC Dysfunctional

There were 2 totally incongruous stories about NYC on Zerohedge today.

Here's the first:


Cuomo just said that schools can open - that there is no reason not to open.  But restaurants might have close the doors .... again.

Does that makes sense?  Of course not.  It seems obvious that there is something else going on rather than "public health".  The people who are saying that 'they' want to make people's lives miserable until after the election might have a case.  The stupid thing is that NY isn't going to be a republican state anyway.  That also makes no sense.  

The restaurant owners have talked about legal action. The best comment was someone saying "what took so long?" in response to that.  Why is no one legally pushing back?  Where are the lawyers?  They are everywhere else, destroying things here in NYC, and now they're nowhere to be found.  The restaurant industry has some clout, they should use it.

But this group has even more clout, and they're begging??


Hey NYC landlords, you control the city government, you get special rules that line your pockets, you've artificially inflated prices for decades ... how about rather than beg businesses, you push back against gov't officials?  They're the ones destroying your business.

I can't think of a strategy more useless. Sad!

Decline and Fall: NYC Edition II

I'm a native New Yorker.  I live in the Bronx.

I'm old enough to remember NYC in the late 1970's.  I went to HS in Brooklyn, and graduated in 1990.  What that means is I saw the NYC that looked like this every day:

NYC in 1979

When I started taking the train to high school, that's how it looked.  That's not a scene from a movie. 

It took a long time to get the city to a place where people could live with some semblance of dignity.  Unfortunately, the ethos of the day and the Progressive imbeciles who run the place are ruining NYC all over again.  

I met a HS friend yesterday, and one of them took the train up to the Bronx from Harlem.  While riding the #2 train she saw 5 homeless people come through the cars, begging for food and money.  2 of them were women.  One of them was pregnant.

In a viable city, there is more opportunity.  Businesses stick around, people are hopeful, and capital is invested.

I'm not hopeful about the future of NYC.  The damage done during the DiBlasio / Covid / Cuomo era of destruction will be difficult to repair.  

There is a lot to discuss, particularly the clownish and stupid Mayor DiBlah, but Paul Joseph Watson does a good job at showing how to ruin a city.  Watson is good at what he does.  He explains just about the entire process in just over 10 minutes.  Nothing he says here is untrue.

The Great Separation

The CV era has been the catalyst for the Great Separation. The division will initially be what we see now. There is a faction of people who watch outfits like CNN, view it as legitimate news, and scream at those who don't follow the government's orders to the letter. These are people who live in an intellectual cage. They are incapable of independent thought. They not only despise freedom, they don't want you to be free because they cannot handle it. These veritable Karens are the worst humanity has to offer. Do you want to live around / under people like that? I don't. Neither do millions of people like me.

This is the early signal, the catalyst that 10 years from now will be seen as the beginning of the Great Separation between Public and Private. It's happening. When people like me have their own areas, and the masktard types scream at us and want us to bend the knee, we will simply ignore them. They won't be allowed in, and they won't be able to do anything about it. 

Will you be in the private area, or stuck wearing a mask by force in the public area?

Decline and Fall - NYC Edition

What happens when you have a mayor who paints BLM on the street, disbands the plainclothes detective unit in the NYPD, bends the knee, things communism is legit, wants to 'defund the police', gets 17% of the vote, and is an anachronistic, leftist fraud?

You get this:


There will be no nationwide anger or protests for this young black man's death.  No major media outlet will cover this tragedy.

I'll leave it up to you to figure out why.  My students know the answer.

I am usually upbeat about the future of NYC, as I remember the Crown Heights riots, NYC in the late 70's and early 80's, and the entire Dinkins administration.

However, as NYC is a Democrat / Liberal / Progressive stronghold, it means that this terrible situation will be made worse, as we're seeing now.

New Yorkers love them some government. We see this with the slavish devotion to the cloddish and overwrought CV19 rules put forth from incompetent and arrogant government officials.

I know that "The Matrix" is now a documentary.  I guess "Escape from New York" is as well.

How to Follow the Narrative

It's getting easier to see which way the narrative winds are blowing.

The current Narrative is that you Have. To. Wear. A. Mask.

That's it.  It doesn't matter that there's no evidence for their effectiveness.  Nor does it matter that generations of people, dealing with the Seasonal Flu haven't used one before.  Science doesn't matter.  Math doesn't matter.  Nothing matters.

Mask Good.  No Mask Bad.

The amazing part of all of this is that some of us remember things like this:

That is from when Orange Man was talking about blocking travel to and from China.  Of course the story has changed over the months.  You're not expected to be able to remember way back in The Before Times, like 5 months ago.

"In late February and early March as the COVID-19 outbreak began accelerating in the US, hospitals and health facilities experienced severe shortages of personal protective equipment for healthcare workers. In response, experts like Fauci and the US Surgeon General Jerome Adams advised Americans against wearing masks. "


This was late February, when Orange was actively talking about the Chinese flu and saying it was dangerous.  Here's the Surgeon General:

Now, with COVID deaths much lower than they were in March, even talking or tweeting about NOT wearing a mask gets you banned from Big Tech Social Media:

"Conservative pundit Bill Mitchell has been kicked off Twitter, saying his opposition to face masks first earned him a suspension, which became permanent after he unwittingly violated the rules by tweeting from a second account. Mitchell announced his ban in a post on Parler on Friday, laying his Twitter handle to rest after accumulating more than 600,000 followers. Earning regular retweets from President Donald Trump, the account was a source of controversy, at times backing ‘QAnon’ conspiracy theories and voicing skepticism toward Covid-19, among other things."


The people who rule over us now want everyone to wear a mask.  Without getting too deep in the weeds, the reasons are the same as they always have been.  They want to win everything politically - there's an election coming up, and they want to control your behavior.  It sounds like hyperbole, but they want to be God.  

The way to identify those who don't accept cloddish, ignorant, arrogant, and clownish government bureaucrats as Gods is .... to see who won't slavishly wear a mask.  Even outside, in August, alone, only a heretic won't wear a mask.  That's how this game is being played, and that's the narrative.  For now.

The Strategy of Like Minded People

It's an easy trap within which to fall.

Too often, regular people are goaded into complaining, despairing, and worrying about the things going on in American society. The collapse of our institutions, the erosion of our freedoms, the idiotic fealty to the SJW ethos, and the Mindless Herd willing to follow (wearing a mask of course) the orders of an incompetent elite are enough to make you miserable. 

In the past I've fallen into the trap. It's part of their strategy. 

It shouldn't be part of your strategy. 

Groups of like minded people, willing to push back, are the thing that they don't want. Orgs like the Tenth Amendment Center, InPower, the Mises Institute, We Are Change, and Unauthorized.TV were all started by regular people. The Patreon lawsuit I mentioned in a previous video is being undertaken by nameless citizens, all tired of being pushed around. It's an old lesson. Don't be a pushover. Be a hard target unwilling to go down without a fight. 

You've been taught in schule that pulling yourself up by the bootstraps and rugged individualism are tired, anachronistic fake concepts from a bygone era. The reason you've been taught this is so that you won't take those concepts and allow them to become part of your mindset. There's a method to their madness. I'm not sure there's a method to yours. Despair is the virus. Like minded people are the cure.

Progressive SJW Patreon Takes a Loss

You've never read a title like the one above.  When has the Progressive / Democrat / Liberal / SJW (I'll let you pick the label) cabal ever taken a loss in your lifetime?  Take all the time you need...

Patreon just took a huge legal death blow.  Because their faction of society has never lost, they are doubling and tripling down. How could they possibly lose?  They have all the right opinions, they and theirs virtue signal all the right tropes, and they're Big Tech!  This has been the attitude of not just Patreon, but of the Social Justice Warrior infected and crazed Silicon Valley.

From Vox Day's blog:

"Lawyer and YouTuber Viva Frei acquired a complete copy of the original backer arbitration claims - courtesy of the Norton Law Firm - and analyzes them as well as the judge's final ruling on the preliminary injunction:"


From the video:

"And there you have it, a thorough update and breakdown of the Patreon lawsuit and a further illustration of the fact that when you've stepped in poop, sometimes the best thing to do is stop walking around and tracking it everywhere. Patreon definitely stepped in poop, and by the way of their highly-questionable amendment after the fact to try to undo their own mistake, I think they have just tracked poo-poo all over their house, in their bedroom, in their bed, on their pillowcase... the poop is everywhere!"

Viva Frei has spoken about these constitutional arguments against Silicon Valley censorship in the past. He explains how Patreon is being hit with tortious interference. The lawsuit is showing you the angle to use: their own terms of service.

I think this is a game changer.

The Urban Farmer Makes Money Growing Green$

Curtis Stone lives up in Canada. He started with nothing. He had no land, no money, and became a wealthy farmer ... all while living in a city in British Columbia. His 1/4 acre now makes $100K a year. After years of learning how to grow things that are tasty, healthy, and desireable, he now teaches others how to do the same thing.

He's now a wealthy man. I highly recommend his youtube channel.

I like to use people who have done things as examples and become wealthy. I'm tired of people who just talk, aren't you? Stone has now made a nice career helping people make money by growing things.

Here he shows you how one of his students makes over $1000 per week. There's another video on his channel where people make $10K a month doing the same thing in their basement. It's legal, healthy, and there is a demand for healthy food.

Please answer the following after watching the video:
  1. How did the young man learn how to grow the microgreens?
  2. In what way did he grow his business?
  3. What would you need to do to start this style or a similar type of business?

Rules for Thee, Not for Me

First off, the NFL decides to murder itself. I have no idea why:

As usual, the Covids, combined with Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), has shown all of us that the rules for the little people will be severe, while the rules for the Elite will be ... nonexistent.  The NFL's decision to limit church service size is a unique one.  Why church?  The rank hypocrisy is the same it's been all along: the rules not only don't apply to the elite, as I'll show later, but the also don't apply if you're 'protesting racism'.  

At some point, Big Sportsball will realize that it's doing a Patreon, but by then it will be too late.  It takes a special brand of ignorance to put forth a rule like this, especially after they showed us that crowded church services aren't really a big deal:

Look at the gathering in church at John Lewis' funeral.  The crowd is pretty substantial.  Some people weren't wearing masks.  God forbid if an NFL player were in that crowd - it would be terrible.  Although, it probably wouldn't be a problem.  I doubt there'd be any repercussions as this was an 'approved' event.

As I write this, in NYC, you can't have a funeral unless all social distancing rules are followed, and the funeral can ONLY have immediate family.  A good friend of mine wanted to have a service and burial for his mother in the DR, but couldn't.  Corona, didn't you know?  A 15 yr old student is still wondering why her older brother didn't have a proper send off.  The Corona crushed that plan.

But the Elite burying one of their own?  In a crowded church?  That's fine.

The masses will never see this for what it is.  What I tell my high school students is that the only fix is to surround themselves with those who see this obvious and disgusting level of hypocrisy clearly.

Don't waste your time with people who create gigantic bowls of word salad defending The Elites.  They're too far gone.  You can't save them.  Don't waste your time trying.

Patreon v. Owen Benjamin: The Winds Change Direction

Big Tech and Silicon Valley have been pushing everyone around for years.

If you go against the Woke Mob, you'll be silenced, and, if you're a practitioner of wrong think, they will get you fired from your job.  Social Justice Warriors have no qualms about ruining reputations, deplatforming people, getting people fired, or taking resources away from people they don't like.

Who don't they like?  Anyone who has opinions that differ from theirs.  It used to be conservatives or libertarians who they targeted, but now it's anyone who dares not bend the knee before the stultifying and stupid brand of Woke Social Justice that passes for Progressive thought today.

The list of people who have been de-platformed, ruined, slandered, and destroyed is a long one.  The latest example is saying that the latest round of "protests" were violent.  If you're at all critical of BLM, then you're a target for the mob.  The blue check twitterati are worst, but the Campus, Hollywood, Woke Capital, and Silicon Valley (the worst offender) are all in on destroying anyone with reality based ideas.

Michael Malice calls it the 'Cathedral'.  Dave Rubin has 'left the left'.  Vox Day saw it before anyone else and has been telling people to 'build your own platforms' for years.

What I never understood over the years was why no one ever fought back.  The accused would take a beating, apologize for their heresy, and then, the apology seen by the Woke Mob as an admission of guilt, get completely 'disappeared'.  The baffling part was that some of these people were strong people of substance, and they were afraid to give SJW's the middle finger.

I think those days are over. People are now fighting back.

In the sports world, Clay Travis and Jason Whitlock have openly mocked the Masked Mafia supporting Corona-Chan, and broken away completely from ESPN, FOX, and big corporate.  They have built their own platform, are taking no prisoners, and getting rich.

Owen Benjamin, the Big Bear, is fighting the Beast directly.  Benjamin was kicked off of Patreon this past Fall.  Turns out, he has sued Patreon for tortious interference, and his followers have requested arbitration, as is their right following Patreon's terms of service.

This could bankrupt Patreon, and it is a glorious moment.  Messing with someone's livelihood because they aren't Woke enough may be coming to an end.  A judge has told Patreon that it MUST pay the arbitration fees, as stated in its original terms of service, and following California law.  The dollars that Patreon will have to pay will get really big really quickly.

I discuss the case here:



Others have now followed suit.  Lauren Southern looks like she'll do the same thing:

Tim Pool tells his half million followers that it's possible the end is near for Patreon:
Nick Rekieta runs a fantastic site on Youtube, Rekieta Law.  He's done the best work explaining what is happening to Patreon, and he's an expert attorney who's able to break down the issues for the layman.  The first blow in the Owen Benjamin v. Patreon video is fantastic:



Patreon, as I explained, thought it could get away with ignoring or rewriting the law because it's Patreon, one of the Woke Crowd, blessed by GoodThink.  Patreon got its ass handed to it 2 days ago. Nick Rekieta provides a post-mortem here:



I see this case as a change in the zeitgeist.  All you have to do is fight back.  You won't always win, but you will, at minimum, make yourself a hard target.
