The End of the Enlightenment

The Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orban, declares the end of the form of Western civilization that has persisted since the Enlightenment:

After the collapse of communism, after the collapse of the USSR, the idea of the Western elite was that the world should be Westernized, should be created in their image and likeness. This is the idea of American exceptionalism, European arrogance and conceit, real or imaginary civilizational superiority, which has existed since the European Enlightenment.

All this contributed to the fact that after 1990 the task became not the restoration of Eurasia, not a global agenda, not a world agenda, but the Westernization of the world along the lines on which the previously successful Western world had been built.

We are here today because that era is over. The idea that the whole world should be organized along Western lines and that the people who would be chosen to do that would be willing to do it in exchange for economic, financial advantages has collapsed.

Asian states have become stronger and have proven their ability to rise, exist, and survive as independent economic and political powers. As a result, the center of the world economy has shifted to the East.

Moreover, the Eastern economies are growing four times faster than the Western ones. Western industry creates 40% of the world’s added value, and Eastern industry – 50%. This is the new reality.

The Western world has not only failed in its idea and strategy of reorganizing the world, but is also suffocating in its own environment within the Western world. The issues that liberal, progressive, dominant thinking could not answer have been put on the agenda. This is migration, this is gender ideology, ethical contradictions regarding traditional values, or even the ongoing war. Thus, the West is becoming increasingly incapable of governing itself.

The five-hundred-year era of dominance of Western civilization is over.

At this point, it’s entirely obvious that the Enlightenment was a satanic turn that led Christendom upon a false path that has not only destroyed Western civilization, but the organizations and nations who created it in the first place.

The Fursonas of UATV

Arkhaven Nights got a little out of control last night and somehow ventured into territory better left unexplored. But it was definitely interesting to see what the AI systems have gleaned concerning the personalities of three of UATV’s central characters. I was frankly impressed that the AI somehow picked up on my preference for custom Italian tailoring.

Please provide a detailed description of Jon Del Arroz’s ideal fursona.

Jon Del Arroz’s ideal fursona would likely be a confident, muscular anthropomorphic fox with vibrant red fur. This fursona would embody his strong personality, assertiveness, and passion for science fiction and fantasy. The fox would have sharp, intelligent eyes and a determined expression, reflecting Jon’s drive and ambition. It would also wear a stylish outfit, possibly incorporating elements from his favorite genres, such as a sleek spacesuit or a fantasy-inspired cloak. This fursona would serve as Jon’s alter ego, representing his ideals and beliefs in the world of furry fandom.

Please provide a detailed description of Vox Day’s ideal fursona.

Vox Day’s ideal fursona would probably be an anthropomorphic wolf, representing his fierce and assertive nature. This wolf would have a sleek, silver-grey coat, symbolizing wisdom and intelligence. It would have piercing blue eyes, reflecting Vox’s analytical and strategic thinking. The fursona would be muscular and well-built, showcasing Vox’s strength and resilience. It would wear a tailored suit, combining its natural instincts with Vox’s preference for formality and intellectualism. This fursona would embody Vox Day’s beliefs, conservative values, and love for science fiction and fantasy, making it a perfect representation of his identity within the furry community.

Please provide a detailed description of Owen Benjamin’s ideal fursona.

Owen Benjamin’s ideal fursona would likely be an anthropomorphic bear, reflecting his larger-than-life personality and comedic nature. This bear would have a fluffy, light brown coat and a friendly, approachable appearance. It would have a mischievous grin and a playful expression, mirroring Owen’s humorous style. The fursona would be slightly overweight, symbolizing Owen’s love for food and his comedic portrayal of gluttony. It would wear a comically large chef’s hat and a matching apron, showcasing Owen’s profession and his love for cooking. This fursona would represent Owen’s lightheartedness, creativity, and passion for food within the furry community.

That should keep Owen busy for the next three weeks… Anyhow, I have a new mix to debut on the Darkstream tonight. Possibly two!

The Rhetoric of London Larry

The British are gradually beginning to realize that they have bitten off far more than they can possibly chew, and that their time-honored method of providing the decisive force to help one side or the other have the advantage in the conflict is not going to work in the current situation:

Putin’s aim is not to defeat us in military combat: he knows he cannot – for now – win against the combined might of Nato, while Beijing remains unlikely to commit its millions of troops to his cause.

His aim instead is to instil cowardice in the general population – to cause ordinary Britons to turn their backs on Ukraine, and demand that their own government stop supporting the defenders.

Why support Ukraine, these siren voices will sing, when the price is misery at home?

Why do we maintain and expense a ‘tripwire’ force in Estonia?

What is the point of Nato now that an isolationist Trump is heading back to the White House?

Surely it is better to pull out of these entanglements and concentrate on our own problems?

Yet if we allow Russia to conquer Ukraine, the result will not be perfect peace. Instead, the seeds will be sown for a future conflict, one in which Britain will be in a far more parlous position.

Instead of kowtowing to our foes, we should rekindle the spirit that won previous epic contests — the world wars against Germany and its allies, and the cold war against Soviet Communism.

We need, too, a new arsenal of crafty, painful counter-measures – for example seizing the frozen £250billion assets of Russia’s central bank and using it to arm and rebuild Ukraine.

So long as our enemies believe they can attack us with impunity, they will not cease from doing so. That is why we must continue to support the Ukrainians – and show Putin that we will not back down.

Let’s count the errors:

  1. Putin’s aim is not to defeat Britain in military combat. His aim is to remove a structural threat to Russia that has spread from the middle of Germany to his borders, a threat that the USA created unnecessarily by breaking its promises to not expand NATO in return for Russia abandoning its occupation of East Germany.
  2. Beijing will absolutely stand by Russia, and has no need to send troops to Europe in order to provide decisive military aid the Russians. It can quickly and easily remove more than half the military forces capable of being brought to bear in Europe by simply pursuing its own objectives. That’s how military alliances work when properly conceived. Forget Taiwan. Just one move aimed at South Korea or Japan would be sufficient to cause the US military to abandon all support for Europe.
  3. Russia can defeat “the combined might of NATO”. It has already done so. If Putin wanted to go all the way to Normandy, he could. Russia has lost 70,000 soldiers, one-quarter of one percent of the number of Russians it lost in WWII, while inflicting casualties at a rate that exceeds that of the historical delta in favor of the IDF in the Arab-Israeli wars.
  4. The British public already wants their government to stop spending money on Ukraine. There are already mass demonstrations against the Labour government’s rapacious new tax schemes. That’s not cowardice, that’s putting the British national interest ahead of Clown World’s interest in Ukraine.
  5. Russia has frozen an equivalent amount of European assets. Stealing the frozen Russian assets and giving them to Ukraine will be counterbalanced by the Russians liquidating those European assets and utilizing them. This is an obviously futile threat.
  6. It is not within the British power to “allow” Russia to conquer Ukraine. Russia has already defeated both Ukraine and NATO in Ukraine; if Ukraine is not permitted to surrender, Ukraine will be conquered and occupied.
  7. There will be no rekindling “the spirit that won previous contests” because the multiracial, multicultural morass of New Britain is not inhabited by the same British people who contributed to the victory of the Allies in WWII. Furthermore, it was the Russian people who won the war; the British population would have been 60 percent smaller if they had suffered the same number of fatalities that the Russians did.

This is just rhetorical bluster, no different than the “mother of all battles” posturing we became accustomed to hearing from Baghdad Bob. London Larry is no more convincing, and every bit as deluded about the military prospects for the British military, as Baghdad Bob was about those formidable forces of the Iraqi army under Saddam Hussein.

UPDATE: Clown World’s most-likely replacement for Zelensky, Valery Zaluzhny, points out that North Korea, Iran, and China are already fully allied and aligned with Russia. Not only that, but they are much more likely to stand by Russia than the USA, the UK, or the European nations are to continue “supporting” Ukraine once either a) Russia decides to cross the Dnieper, b) Russia drops the hammer on the UK or a European state, or c) the next front goes hot.

Ukraine’s former military chief has warned that World War Three is already underway – with Vladimir Putin’s autocratic allies, North Korea, Iran and China, openly supporting his forces on the battlefield. Valery Zaluzhny, who is now Ukraine’s envoy to the United Kingdom, told the UP100 award ceremony in Kyiv: ‘I believe that in 2024 we can absolutely believe that the Third World War has begun.’ The General said that as of this year, ‘Ukraine is no longer facing Russia. Soldiers from North Korea are standing in front of Ukraine.’

UPDATE: Uncle John calls a scripted bluff.

Note incongruities. Beast media is running two incompatible nonsense narratives. A) crumbling Putin’s impotent rage and B) OMG nuclear war. It’s not which is right. It’s sowing chaos. Chaff. Put down a marker. No one will be using “nukes”.

But… But… International Law!

No doubt all the groups in the USA and Europe that are always nattering on about how one thing or another is necessary and supersedes national sovereignty because of international law will do their part and demand Benjamin Netanyahu turn himself in to face justice for his alleged crimes against international law, right?

The International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague announced on Thursday that it has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant over alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity linked to the Gaza conflict. Hamas military leader Mohammed Deif has also been named in a warrant for similar charges.

The court accuses Netanyahu and Gallant of using starvation as a method of warfare, alleging they deliberately deprived Gaza’s civilian population of essential supplies, including food, water, and medicine. Prosecutors claim there was “no obvious military necessity” for such actions, which amount to violations of international law.

Both Israeli politicians could face arrest if they travel to any of the 123 countries that are signatories to the ICC’s Rome Statute.

International law is, of course, a nullity. It’s pseudo-dialectic at best; one might as reasonably appeal to the intersolar law of the Federated Planets. Even so, it’s long past time for Israel’s leaders to recognize that neither the Holocaust nor the October 7th attacks are some sort of historical get-out-of-jail-free card. Especially when they’re actively engaged in what very much looks like ethnic cleansing.

Russia’s Warning

Russia hit Ukraine with an ICBM containing multiple conventional warheads in response to the long-range strikes by the USA and the UK on its territory. The message is clear: next time, these might not be conventional warheads and they might not be hitting Ukraine.

However, the willingness of the Clown World leaders to risk nuclear war does tend to suggest that Big Bear and the other nuclear skeptics might be correct. What if they’re not crazy, they’re simply willing to blow the cover off the official story and allow the world to discover the nonexistence of nuclear weapons? That’s what Occam’s Razor would suggest, anyhow.

Of Script and Scriptwriters

Uncle John has his doubts about what appears to be the inorganic second coming of the God-Emperor:

One thing I’ve been observing for a while is what I call The Script. The overwhelming sense that current mainstream culture and politics are not organic. That they’re being directed in some way to deliver a predetermined outcome. This was something I laid a marker on in a private social media venue some time back. I wrote a post on it here a bit ago, wanting to state it publicly. The tl,dr is that some closing Q narrative beats are playing out, only in a forced, not organic way. And all the high weirdness that has gone on since the “inauguration” makes the unreal show aspect inescapable. The premise then was that the people have to see how bad it will get. They’re too NPC and the enemy too entrenched for an informed change.

Note it’s all narrative level. “The patriots” don’t want a real, off the chain nationalist uprising. Both “sides” are still invested in the illusion that the system is real. Following up the first post, the multiple faction within the House of Lies model seems more likely. Things did circle the bowl, but there was no grassroots cry for Trump. What happened is the infosphere changed enough to snuff the TDS tsunami and pulse the NPCs into MAGA. It’s actually been really interesting in a “so that’s how it happens” way. It’s one thing to see where a pattern goes logically and another to experience it unfold. The sudden repackaging of consummate machine man Musk as free-speech-but-not-really fat Tony Stark master futurist is a great example1 There’s clearly opposition. But one faction appears to have wrested the wheel from the clown wing.

Allegedly.

The plan is presumably to sweep in, House of Lies intact, and try a civnat reboot. This is preferable in the short term for quality of life and future-proofing. There are X-factors. The clowns are brazenly criminal. Are they sufficiently threatened for kinetic disruption? There are a lot of destabilization assets around the country. Then there are the structural tissues of the House of Lies – financialization, information control, the surveillance state, etc. How deep does factional conflict run? What is really at stake? It should go without saying that I have no idea who or what is driving The Script, let alone how or why. The opening of this post shows how much interest I have in that. It’s just that the inorganic pattern of events – with their loosely Biblical beats – leading to Trump’s inevitable return has looked obvious for a while.

It’s quite obvious that Trump is the primary tool of the sane faction of Clown World that wants to fix the system. He’s not a nationalist, he’s a civic nationalist who still thinks in terms of 1950s America being the greatest and most free nation in history; making America great again means restoring what used to be the balance between Americans and immigrants.

But just as the imperial restorationists of the Meiji era wound up being deeply disappointed by the new Japanese government’s decision to open to the world rather than return to the primordial perfection of the Emperor Jimmu’s reign – they were infuriated to see how their campaign for National Learning intended to cleanse Shinto of its various Buddhist intertwinements wound up with Shinto being fused with Enlightenment ideals – the would-be US restorationists will find that it’s not possible to go back in time.

To save America, both the neo-liberal rules-based world order and the USA must be allowed to collapse and fail. And I doubt there is a script for that, at least, not outside of Moscow and Beijing.

Ethnic Cleansing and Annexation

First Gaza, now the West Bank. Seymour Hersh reports that Israel is going to attempt to annex the West Bank before President Trump takes office in January:

Israel, fortified by bombs and funding from the Biden administration, is escalating the forced evacuation of hundreds of thousands from the north of Gaza to the south, amid fierce bombing and the deprivation of food and water for those who stay behind. This is continuing amid marches and other demonstrations sponsored by the religious right in Israel whose leadership also is calling for north Gaza to be turned over to Israeli settlers. What was a worrisome rumor in Gaza more and more seems like a reality.

Control over all of Gaza and the West Bank is the core demand of the religious right in Israel that now dominates the government. I was told this week by a well-informed Washington official that the Israeli leadership will formally annex the West Bank in the very near future—perhaps in two weeks—in the hope that the decisive step will end, once and for all, any talk of a two-state solution and will convince some in the skeptical Arab world to reconsider financing the planned reconstruction of Gaza.

It’s fascinating to see how many of the parties that have been aggressive over the last three years are getting even more aggressive as the clock runs out on Clown World. I don’t see this working out as smoothly as the Netanyahu regime might be hoping, assuming that the report is real and not just a trial balloon.

Vaccines Do Cause Autism

Steve Kirsch is publicizing evidence of vaccines causing autism that the CDC has been trying to hide for years:

I recently received a treasure trove of electronic documents from deep inside the CDC. These documents have never been made publicly available. The documents include voice-recordings, emails, hand-written notes, diagrams, and data. The often repeated claim that “vaccines don’t cause autism” is quite simply inconsistent with this evidence which can be authenticated.

The Hooker paper is published in the scientific peer-reviewed literature and is simply an analysis of the data that the CDC officials told CDC scientist William Thompson to destroy… See the 3.86 odds ratio in the last row? See the .005 p-value? Those are damning. There is no way to explain such large effect sizes.

Pediatrician “L” (she didn’t want her named used until after she goes through her records EMR records manually to confirm her estimates) estimates around 180 kids in her practice had rapid onset autism. Of those, she believes the majority happened within 2 week after a vaccination visit.

Pediatrician Doug Hulstedt did track the case history of all his incoming patients with autism. He has seen over 180 autistic kids in his 35 year career as a pediatrician. He is highly rated by his patients for his medical care. Of the 44 kids with “rapid onset” autism, 100% of these cases happened within 14 days after a vaccination of one or more vaccines.

This is much more conclusive evidence than the evidence that smoking causes lung cancer, or the evidence that human activity causes global warming. All of the various “debunkings” and so forth are paper-thin hand-waving, as becomes evident the moment one takes a look at them.

The evidence is conclusive and the logic is settled. The science will eventually follow. Forget the Holocaust and the Great Train Robbery, it’s rapidly becoming clear that vaccines are the greatest crime in human history. And for the binary thinkers who require a credible motivation to accept anything, the reason is that autism severs Man’s sense of the spiritual, thereby causing atheism, and global satanists seek to destroy Man’s faith in God and Jesus Christ.

Albert Einstein, Plagiarist and Fraud

Physicist Hans Schantz begins his methodical demolition of the Einstein myth with by demonstrating that Albert Einstein was an incompetent plagiarist.

There were many milestones along the road to E = mc², and I’ve merely presented a summary of those I thought most important. Who first suggested matter-energy equivalence? Preston in 1875. Or the relativistic nature of energy? Newcomb in 1889. A correctly derived result in a limited case? Poincaré in 1900. The actual formula? De Pretto in 1903. The correct result in a different limited case and arguing it should be generalized outside the context of electromagnetic energy? Einstein in 1905. The correct result rigorously proven to be generally applicable? That was von Laue in 1911. Einstein’s work was an important milestone but it was neither the only one nor the final conclusive one. And Einstein cited none of these predecessors. As Ohanian notes, “Oddly, even today von Laue’s general proof of the E = mc² relation is not widely known, and it is rarely mentioned in physics textbooks, which mostly content themselves with some handwaving arguments about E = mc² and some version of Einstein’s defective proofs” [[xxx]].

A postscript, courtesy of Ohanian [[xxxi]]: in 1912, Einstein adapted von Laue’s proof for an omnibus volume on recent advances in physics. The war delayed publication until 1924. Einstein’s contribution was not included, because he refused the publisher’s request to update it. Einstein reused his submission in a 1914 paper and in his Princeton lectures in 1921, published later that year as The Meaning of Relativity. Nowhere did he acknowledge von Laue. What’s more, Einstein’s paraphrase of von Laue included what Ohanian characterized as “the zaniest mistake in his entire oeuvre, an absolutely nonsensical mistake.”

We have a word for Einstein’s pattern of behavior. That word is “plagiarism.” Christopher Jon Bjerknes (1965– ) expounds at length upon the misdeeds of “the incorrigible plagiarist” [[xxxii]]. By passing off the work of others as his own and without acknowledgement, Einstein enhanced his own reputation for genius while denigrating the contributions of his colleagues.

Perhaps the most amusing thing in that passage is the revelation that Einstein was not only a plagiarist, but that he didn’t even understand what he was plagiarizing. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was eventually discovered that Einstein wasn’t even Mensa material. Although it’s absolutely no surprise that Einstein wasn’t anywhere nearly as intelligent as he is commonly supposed to have been, since his purported intelligence is one of the more significant pillars in the specious myth of Jewish high intelligence.

Germany Suicides Even Harder

It’s very, very difficult to imagine what the NATO mouthpieces currently pretending to run Germany think they’re going to accomplish by threatening to suicide Germany even harder by throwing its young men and women on the same altar they’ve sacrificed the German economy:

Now Germany reveals plans to mobilise national defence and 800,000 NATO troops after Kremlin nuke threat – as US announces new weapon Kyiv can use to stop Russia after allowing long-range missile strikes.

Ukraine’s strike on an ammunition depot in Russia’s Bryansk region yesterday with US-supplied ATACMS (Army Tactical Missile System) meets these criteria, with Moscow saying that it marks a ‘new phase of the Western war’. ‘This is, of course, a signal that they want to escalate,’ Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said, while foreign intelligence chief Sergei Naryshkin said attempts by NATO countries to facilitate Ukrainian missile strikes deep inside Russia ‘would not go unpunished’.

In Eastern Ukraine, Russia’s forces are steadily grinding towards the logistics hub of Pokrovsk having taken large swathes of territory in the Donetsk region in recent months. Putin’s army took 185 square miles of Ukrainian territory in October, a record since the first weeks of the conflict in March 2022, according to an analysis of data provided by the real-time conflict tracker from the Institute for the Study of War.

Now, where are those “800,000 NATO troops” going to come from? Not Poland, the Scandinavian countries or the Baltics. They’re talking about US troops, mostly, but there is no way President Trump is going to send more US troops to Germany; he’s far more likely to withdraw all the troops that are already there.

Simplicius points out that the IMF, the World Bank, and the CIA have now all confirmed that Russia is decisively winning its war with NATO and its member states on economic terms as well as in the military context.

A couple months back, you may recall World Bank announced that as per their calculations, Russia had finally surpassed both Germany and Japan in GDP PPP. However, the official IMF and CIA figures still scoffed at this, with Russia trailing both countries on their counts. This allowed the popular narrative to be maintained that the World Bank figures were some kind of inaccurate fluke or anomaly.

Well, the IMF has just done their latest report and has officially concluded that Russia has blown past both Germany and Japan as of 2024, and is now the number four economy in the world. And not only that, but the IMF has Russia in the lead by an even larger margin than World Bank. On top of which, the CIA also updated their numbers and likewise reflects Russia at the number four position.

This means that the longer Germany persists in its futile denial of the need to stop supporting Ukraine and encourage it to surrender, the worse off the Germans and the other Europeans will be. Time, attrition, and economics are all on the side of the Russians, and more importantly, their allies in China, North Korea, and Iran.
