Lemme remind everyone: LARP is Live Action Role Play.

Example: idle nurses pretending to be ballerinas, and professional spies pretending to be nurses.

Would another example be nuclear war with Russia?

Have you seen how fat all the generals look?

They can't even dance. The only LARP they can do will be related to reciting shocking lines about weapons that are irrelevant for war, but that will be used by stock brokers and politicians in parliaments and international organizations.

I completely stopped listening to Weinstein because he is a BS artist.

That's really good info. Wish I could say I was shocked. Always steps ahead, the Blob would surely be behind - to some degree - the faces of the 'resistance' movement.

"Now, an interesting question is whether the United Nations, and its World Health Organization, would do something insane, like LARP a whole pandemic, in order to accomplish the goal."

Yup. Personally, I have no doubt about that.

Thanks, Mathew.

i dont trust BW either, must be said. on occasion, his behaviour has been really rather odd, to say the least. predictably, he ignored all my requests for commont on jeff sachs who didnt "switch sides" for sure.

never liked eric. always came across pretty arrogant and condescending to me.

It's getting fairly full in the UK... I'm from Bristol where there has been a large black community due to it's links with the slave trade. I moved to Devon 30 years ago, not one black face. Small Indian, Pakistani and Muslim community. Last 2 years, black faces are now 20% of those on the street. Massive change.

Yes, a sudden immigration flood is tough for any society. I think that keeping the West weak is to the benefit of the United Nations if the goal is to subsume global governance. At the same time, keeping a certain amount of cheap(er) labor around suits many with money. It's what oligarchs call a win-win?

When they tell you why they do it, believe them: radical egalitarianism. “Everyone is the same. It’s not fair those people have to live in a shithole country and not in America.” The regime’s legitimating story is ENTIRELY that it’s not racist and it can prove it.

I think it goes further than this. I always think back to Arthur Schlesinger Jr.'s The Disuniting of America: The Perils of Multiculturalism. He's quite explicit that "multiculturalism" in general, let alone this intentional mass migration operation, leads inevitably to balkanization and civil unrest. This is about subverting and destroying all the traditionally White, Christian, Western nations in service of a ethnosupremacist cabal and the technofascist globalist aspirations, IMHO. The HIAS-Mayorkas connection speaks volumes to this...

Great article. It's also disturbing to me — as a former Bret Weinstein fan — that in his journey to the Darien Gap with Michael Yon, he spent an inordinate amount of time focused on the Chinese presence but did not name the predominant NGOs working in the area, like HIAS — the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society — and their connection to our current head of the Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, who used to be on their Board of Directors. HIAS has an underground railroad of bases from Venezuala and Colombia all the way through Central America and Mexico to the US border. They are a MAJOR player in the worldwide migrant phenomenon and they have "partner groups" in America that works with DHS to "resettle" these migrants all over the country where they overwhelm towns and cities, fail to assimilate, and as you noted take jobs.

If you ask me, this is a major agenda, along with the Covid op, to subvert the Western Civilization nations in America, Canada, Europe, and Scandinavia. We should not just stop at the two "cover narratives" for the migration agenda, 1) altering voter demographics and 2) cheap labor for US corporations. There is a deeper, more disturbing agenda that falls far closer to the so-called "far-right conspiracy" of the "Great Replacement." The motive is a ethno-supremacist agenda of a international cabal and their minions to disrupt and balkanize these Western nations as part of their technofascist globalist aspirations. I would encourage the interested to do deeper research into the HIAS-Mayorkas connection and its broader implications...

I don't know if it's ethno-supremacy, but it is certainly about supremacy. I think that it is about casting a global governance net, one way or another.

"White" supremacy was never about skin color anyway, just a convenient red herring.

Depending on the definition, white supremecy is very real, but we ain't white.

Persistent Predatory Personalities - a new name for our beloved Kunlangeta. We can now identify them by their attributes - https://ponerology.substack.com/p/control-through-calculated-ferocity - it appears that Weinstein is part of their ponerogenic web, as are Mayorkas, Harris, etc?

Expand full comment

Yeah. PPP does sound kind of catchy. "Kulangeta" has too many syllables to become a meme or part of conversational language.

Harrison just published a good substack regarding that ... https://ponerology.substack.com/p/the-intraspecies-predator. Appears to be part 2 of the link you posted.

I clicked on the included link for Dr. Karen Mitchell and downloaded a pdf of her Ph.D. thesis. The title says it all (and much better than Lobaczewki's book, important as it is) ... "Psychopaths, Narcissists, Machiavellians, Toxic Leaders, Coercive Controllers: Subsets of One Overarching ‘Dark’ Personality Type?"

Unfortunately, three-letter acronyms are overly used. Sometimes an unusual word distinguishes better. It's also a word.

Expand full comment

Hi Mathew.

Yeah, putting on my linguist-hat, PPP won't catch on either. Some months ago in an exchange with you, I suggested that a shortening of "kulangeta" through dropping a syllable or two would make it roll off the tongue more easily. But I'm hazy about the social dynamics necessary to bring a new word into common parlance. I suspect the most salient factor would be the word being used by someone with extremely high social currency and in a prominent public event.

Cheers.

Excellent! Love that you quoted the title, it say it all! We are on to them, and Karen Mitchell apparently did a good job of assembling the work of the various D.P. researchers. (I've yet to read her thesis - I've been reading Harrison's articles summarizing it. The one you linked is actually part 5 - I linked you to part 4 because it contains the lists of attributes that enable us to easily recognize these DPs.)

I think this is a real breakthrough! Lobacezewki thought we won't escape their pathocracies unless we learn that they are always among us and learn to watch out for them. Is this the money shot? https://video.thesetruths.com/static/media/ppp-attributes-quote.jpg

Thanks for the heads up! It may have been through Harrison that I learned of and read Lobaczweski's book.

I am not if full agreement with "Political Ponerology' because I don't completely agree that "science" is capable of a full understanding of evil any better than its sufficiency for understanding and predicting 'love' or 'beauty' ... and as Dr. Mitchell shows, the psychopaths are not all 'degenerate' in the biological sense of the word.

But the book is much better than the flavor-of-the-day, M. Desmet's "mass formation psychosis' lame-ass apology and deflection from the the sociopaths in charge. And L.'s book has helped me understand a lot of what is behind the facade of 'unique' Japanese culture and understand my experience of 41 years living here.

And yeah! That jpg summarizes a lot.

Cheers, and followed!

It’s not that they’re “chaos agents.” It’s that they’re full of shit. So Weinstein tells a big bureaucracy what they want to hear because he needs money. He’s full of shit. EVERYONE is full of shit. No one has clean hands. Everyone is tainted by the lies of the contemporary system.

I think it's more than that. There are too many indications that there is a larger plan. Think about what it means that I saw the LARP six full years ago, but nobody else with a brain even asked a question, publicly.

Peter Brimelow wrote “Alien Nation” in the early 1990s and became persona non grata. Who was supporting him the last 30 years? Apparently no one. But Weinstein could get a lucrative gig writing a stupid report nobody read that supported the Regime’s prejudices. This wasn’t hidden. It was out in the open. Indeed, the Regime’s well publicized legitimating narrative was that it was protecting immigrants and all decent people from those horrible white nationalists.

At first, I bought the Evergreen story, but as I got to know Bret, I saw too much that was too absurd for me to trust him.

My oldest brother attended Evergreen, and worked for an intelligence-connected mafia that sold drugs at Grateful Dead and Phish concerts.

Bret's publication history is approximately the size of this article. He talks "game theory" (quite vaguely), but I would wager that he couldn't solve the extensive form diagrams I give to talented high school students over the course of a class.

There is a lot more that I'll eventually explain.

I have long suspected “Evergreen” to have been an Op. The Op that launched many Social Media high & mid tier ‘Thought Leaders’ & podcasters now with accumulated info/commentary currency. Nothing smelt organic about that Spectacle to me at least - though I have no evidence & don’t know anyone involved. Only my hunch. A massive Operation of Public Consciousness & a spreading agent of the Uni Campus Social Justice weasels taking over Toad Hall. The Mind Virus then spreading rapidly by example.

The 3 part Evergreen documentary by Michael Nayna (I think) is still to this day the scariest thing I've ever seen, and I saw it during covid after the GF riots. It explained a lot. I'm just curious - is your primary reason for thinking it was an op the subsequent podcasting success of BW and James Lindsay and maybe others or something else? I lean to thinking that it was a more of a sociological experiment vs an Op (like a PsyOp). Imho, they were studying how long it would take to find out how long it would take to transform bright young minds into rabid, frothing at the mouth animals.

You wrote: "It’s about surgically excising and eliminating the Western cultures from financial opportunity." Great insight. I'd like to suggest that the motive for this transcends mere cheap labor for predatory capitalists. Especially when you look at the blatant Mayorkas-HIAS connection and HIAS's history and influence in America and internationally. That's quite a rabbit hole that leads to disturbing conclusions...

The only Weinstein whose name is on a UN funded white paper on migration is Eric. He’s not really hiding anything, nor would he have any reason to hide anything, because the view he is expressing is at the center of the Overton Window and explicitly approved by the Regime and all of the powerful and fashionable people.

Eric's paper also contradicts the notion that his brother Bret was expressing at the border. That doesn't strike you as odd?

Not really. They’re brothers, not clones. Bret has become pro Trump, but Eric continues to retail tiresome Never Trump nonsense. Is Tim Walz’s brother saying he’s going to vote for Trump “weird”? Relatives disagree, feud, even hate each other.

Hi Mathew,

I followed Chris Martenson's podcasts on the plandemic narrative from the very beginning ... wowed by his credentials (Ph.D Neurotoxicology, Duke), experience as a former Big Pharma exec., his combination of critical thinking skills and skepticism, and and his sense of humor. But I gradually came to realize that he was a wealthy guy making a pitch to others of his caste ... able to fly with buddies to bug-out shelters or private farms in the Caribbean, like a mini-Davos.

I agree with his conviction that forming small skill-and-knowledge sharing communities is the way to fight large scale, institutional corruption. But his advice is directed to those able to buy acres of fertile farm-land, or add high value to it ... not the working class. And now with small scale farmers being forced out of the market (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szTqcsksSdg&t=906s) and another resort area in Portugal, slated for a 15 minute city, the latest to go up in DEW fueled flames (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59kBiO2OhzE&lc=UgyOmwb5fd4q6PbCvEV4AaABAg.A8pdZR8dCrDA8pkuPL5gyk) ... I have increasingly been wondering, how can he presume his little piece of earth will be immune to similarly 'natural' fires, seizure through 'eminent domain', or worse?

Just guessin' ... but maybe Chris and Eric both are in that George Carlin thingy. "It's a big club, and we ain't in it."

Cheers.

My comment to co-author Shane ...

Hi Traci and Shane.

At about the16 minute mark, Shane mentioned at a bit about the Earth's magnetic field weakening.

Some months ago, we had an on-line Zoom chat about the psychology of the Lahaina victicms. As you might remember, I live in Japan ... but before coming here, I worked for 3 summers as a forest fire fighter in the mountains of Arizona along the Mogollon rim country, mostly as a Tanker Truck Operator, but also with HotShots and Helitack. At that time, it was the 2nd most likely spot in the world for fires caused by lightning strikes, the number one spot being somewhere in Australia.

6 days ago I was watching a YouTube podcast by prepper "Survival Lilly" from Austria giving a run-down on the correlation between the effects of the increasing fluctuation of the magnetic poles and the increase in underground bug-out spots for the ruling class and the deep-state. She is normally pretty hands-on for everyday prepping, mostly for people in the rural areas of Europe, not a click-bait pirate. But the title of that podcast is "A BIG Calamity is coming!".

But what really caught my eye was one of the effects of the accelerating movement of the magnetic pole — an increase in lightning. Despite my 3 years in the Mogollon Rim country, Tokyo had more lightning this summer than the 41 years I've lived here ... or in the states. I remember taking videos and posting them on Reddit a few months ago. Survival Lilly also reported more lightning in Austria than ever before.

This prompted me to crank up Perplexity Pro and GPT 1o write a prompt asking about the degree of accelerating movement of the magnet north pole, giving me the following results ...

Pre - 1980, less than 10 km/year

2000's, 20-30 km/year

2010's - 2020's, 55, km/year

Last week I wrote up a short Reddit article for r/Tokyo entitled "One disconcerting explanation for all the lightning" ... including that data, as well as effects other than lightning which would prompt the powers that be to go underground — notably, how the increase in cosmic rays/particles and solar flares could damage our bodies and bring down the grid. My post now has 8600 likes and rising. If interested in more details, you have my e-mail.

I am about halfway through your book now, and it is VERY well written. I intend to give a book review on substack and then post a link to about 70 FB groups. But now, I am connecting some big dots in a slightly different way:

1 — the mRNA iatrocide is part of a long term plan to reduce the human population

2 — the remainder of the working class are being herded into small, exploitable surveillance states. This is done through the convergence of enhanced weaponization of fire, reducing the number of home owners — most notably in the U.S., immigration policies or lack of, money policy, surveillance tools, etc. (see Rob Braxman Tech' latest YouTube podcast "Why the iPhone 16 Should Scare You Shitless" — hint, though Google is banned in China, Apple A.I. is coming, and Apple iPhones are both legal and popular in China).

3 — the ruling class and deep-state increasingly prepare for extended periods of life underground, and with enough alternative technology to thrive when, not if, the grid goes down

Come to think of it, even more than Orwell's "Animal Farm" or "1984", maybe H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine" is a more appropriate blueprint for things to come.

Cheers from Japan,

steve

I volunteer as much as I can for ASA/SWB. (It's own 'op' of sorts pretending the better but doing some). I used to do the same for the Red Cross which proved to be it's own 'op'. We at SWB had a project to improve the math and science programs at University Lagos this year. Same time some of the usual suspects showed up in South Africa. Eric talked about how beautiful and wonderful racial homogenous "Cafe au lait" people are. This is a real op, an old Soviet project. It's also a real op of Rules Based Order versus Great Powers influence in Africa. It is thirdly, a real op of expanding the African pie and seeing what is unique about math contributions from Africa. The Weinsteins are tribal supremacists. I think that might have something to do with the Thiel-Eric distancing.

Analagously, there was real op in the border thing. The Americans are trying to keep the Darien gap open. Other Great Powers want it open. Counternarcotics in Equador. More Plan Columbia. The Merida Plan. I saw the border crossers. I know some on the ground workers. At the same time attacks on US military bases went low kinetic (i.e. attacks on MCB Quantico). Media kept it relatively quiet. DOD bases have gotten more quiet and hardened since the Israel-Ukraine op.

Today, in Sweden appreciation week:

1.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eva_Brunne

«Removal of Christian symbols

In September 2015 Brunne proposed the removal of symbols of Christianity, including crosses, from the Seamen's Church in Stockholm Harbor, to open the church to worshipping sailors of all beliefs, and to mark the direction of Mecca as a service to Muslim visitors. As the Seamen's Church is an independent foundation and, while in Stockholm, not part of Brunne's Diocese of Stockholm, Kicki Wetterberg, the head of the Seamen's Church, rejected the suggestion in an interview with Dagen, stating that she had "no problem with Muslim or Hindu sailors worshipping in the church, but the church will keep its crosses, being a Christian church".»

2. Compare with infamous neopagan cultist mass murderer:

3. There was a sociology professor in Sweden, and I think he was a socialist or a social-democrat, who stated in a public talk that returning to cannibalism would be good to combat global warming.

He also advocated eating larvae and insects.

But I think this guy was probably a Norwegian, so, totally different from the Swedes.
