Never Trust the Money

The history of American sports would have gone very differently if the players who founded the breakway Players League hadn’t tried to cut corners by bringing in investors, who didn’t even hesitate to sell them out one year later.

“The seeds of the destruction of the Players’ League in 1890 were that the players had to link with capitalists,” Thorn says. “It takes capital in the end. No matter how high your concept and how utopian your scheme—in the end, that takes money.”

And the NL’s shrewd ownership knew this all too well. Spalding, in particular, knew that the NL could not survive another year of competing with the PL; just one season of doing so had been all but financially ruinous. So he saw an opportunity to divide and conquer. At the end of the season, Spalding and other NL executives discreetly approached PL investors for the teams with the weakest financial situations, buying them out and convincing them to flip with a bluff about the financial picture in the NL. Spalding made it seem as if the NL had the resources to fight the PL for as long as it needed to—scaring investors and motivating them to cut panicked deals with the NL. Once a critical mass of investors had defected, there was no hope left for the players, despite their best efforts, and their league was gone.

“It really should have put the National League out of business,” Ross says of the Players’ League. “But it was the investor-owners, the non-playing owners, who sold them out. … The investors who were not ideologically interested in this sort of league, they saw this opportunity to join hands with the National League owners, and I think that was it.”

The NL’s owners had been financially battered by the whole exercise—but they walked out empowered. They decided that it would be as if the Players’ League had never existed in 1890; any player who had been subject to the reserve clause for an NL team in 1889 remained bound to the same team in 1891. The players, jaded by how quickly things had fallen apart, did not fight back in any meaningful capacity. Ward was devastated. He soon received a new contract—from one of the same executives whom he had just fought against—and found himself subject once again to the reserve clause he had worked so hard to topple.

“The players’ fatal mistake—and this was Ward’s fault as much as it was anyone else’s—was that they trusted their financial backers,” Ross wrote in The Great Baseball Revolt. “They believed that capital would act in the interests of labor. But building a league—constructing any industry—amid a political economy in which property does not come for free, is nearly impossible without an enormous initial sum of money, something the players did not have. Unable or unwilling to fight back, the players would not overturn the reserve rule again until 1975,” when the clause was removed in collective bargaining after Curt Flood had challenged it in court in 1969.

The reason the conscious transition to a parallel economy is so vital is because most successful startups are bought out for around $10 million by “investors” and are used to fund the “growth” of the established corporations, which exist as financial predators on a regular diet of usury, startups, government contracts, and legally-protected vertical monopolies.

The Narrative Shatters

Young women are beginning to lie and claim that they are NOT vaccinated for fear of losing out on higher status men:

Everyone was told that those who did not get the jab would regret it, but now it seems that the opposite is true. In a startling reversal, women who have had the COVID vaccine are being shunned in the dating scene by potential partners due to issues with possible birth defects and infertility.

Women in New York have started lying about their vaccination status because of widespread perception among men that they are infertile or will bear children with birth defects. One man, who wants to remain anonymous, said:

“In clubs, they claim they’re NOT vax’d. They say things like ‘Oh COVID is bullshit‘ or ‘I don’t want to try this new experimental shot‘. However, after going out with them several times, the women finally admit they took the vax . . . and watch as most potential husbands leave them almost on the spot.”

This isn’t even remotely surprising. Purebloods are are on average healthier and more attractive than the sort of people who are either paranoid about health issues or stupid enough to fall for mass media propaganda – look at how it was Gamma males who eagerly embraced their self-appointed status as Heroes of the Pandemic – and why would any self-respecting Pureblood man wish to risk the possibility of adverse birth effects on his progeny from the mutated and mutilated genetics of a vaccinated Mudblood whore?

This is why the dating and social media services are attempting to block vaccine-related segregation. They know it will underline the socio-sexual desirability of the unvaxxed.

Over the Target Again

AC has taken note of what appears to be a minor comments campaign targeting me:

I have had zero comments critical of Vox, probably going back to this site’s formation.

Starting about a week or two before, and then as Murphy went down in an obviously controlled take-down, there have been a flood of anonymous posts here, often from one-off IPs, and most not using any name, and many seeming to be written by different people based on style, all trying to tie Vox to various figures who are comped, and feeding the narrative he is going to be exposed somehow, along with a bunch of right wing influencers/celebrities. The first one seemed to predict some sort of wave of takedowns was coming, of which Murphy may be the first. I also noticed now, two posts on 4Chan (and for some reason I seem to miss a lot of what gets put on 4Chan despite checking it, but that is another story), which were also focusing on Vox as some sort of comped asset who was selling out the movement, even though you don’t see people producing posts exclusively about Vox there very often. They didn’t have many replies when I saw them and I assume they died quickly, but it obviously seemed related. I’m guessing if you followed other sites, they would be seeing the same activity.

I don’t know what Vox is doing, or is going on with him in his endeavors, but there seems some group spreading this type of post right now, and it doesn’t feel like a single person, but rather an organized operation. Could be related to something he is rolling out, or his refusal to take a ticket, or just some entity wants to try to piggyback something else going on with guys like Murphy, and diminish Vox’s clout as various projects advance.

The interesting thing about these types of things is how they materialize like the religious wars, where you have no religious fighting one day, and in the space of just three days you have ten new posters all fighting over religious issues. And then you ban a few, they see it isn’t working, and they all disappear. You can almost see the order going out to a bunch of people with the website address to show up at, and the posts to be pushed. It would be interesting to know if anybody sees these posts on any other websites.

However, it appears his readers are not falling for it.

Congratulations, the claim that Vox Day is a cabal asset easily makes the list of the top three most stupid assertions ever made online, and is quite possibly the gold medallist. After this, if anyone ever tries to tell you that you’ve achieved nothing in your life, you can point to this post and tell them to suck it up, and then ask them what THEY’VE ever achieved in the Stupid Olympics. They probably didn’t even make the team

This was my response to the accusatory comment that made it through the moderation there.

Get over it already, Gamma.

I’m not a conservative. I don’t get involved in political events. I don’t get paid by George Soros or any other shady character. I don’t care about fame, money, or Internet celebrity, and now that it’s obvious that politics is all a fixed charade, I don’t have much interest in that anymore.

There definitely won’t be any gay porn starring me in it. And I encourage AC’s readers to keep your false prophecy in mind when literally nothing that you predicted happens.

As for the surveillance state, it simply isn’t of much concern to me as a Christian and as a reader of philosophy. I’m far more worried about God’s opinion of my various flaws and failures than I am about Satan’s petty servitors using them against me. We are all watched, and not just by our fellow humans. Even the ancient pagans knew this.

When you have shut the doors and made a darkness within, remember never to say that you are alone; for you are not alone, but God is within, and your Guardian Spirit, and what light do they need to behold what you do?

Saving Superman

DC Comics has plumbed new depths hitherto unimagined with the prison rape of Superman:

I have no idea what Daniel Cherry was brought in to do at DC but this is what he has done.

And no Superman’s prison rape was not some Elseworlds thing, it was the main timeline.

What needs to be remembered here is that the Discovery is taking over Warner in mid-2022. Which means no one is watching what the Wokeites are doing. Or rather no one cares, because they are all wondering who is going to survive the next round of merger purge….

Ultimately Warner Brothers doesn’t care because the DC heroes can’t be sold at this point. Or at least no one will buy them.

In eleven years, Superman, Lois Lane, Metropolis and the Daily Planet all go into the Public Domain. In a little over ten years anybody can write a Superman comic book and sell it.* Batman becomes public property that same year. Three years later Wonder Woman joins them. Flash, Green Lantern, Sandman, Doctor Fate, and Hawkman would have already been in Public Domain for a year.

That’s it for the Justice League.

Eleven years… imagine where Arktoons is going to be in eleven years. And imagine what an Arkhaven Superman might look like. It sounds like a long way off, but then, time flies when you’re having fun. Let’s do this.

The Revolution Eats Its Own

Norman Mailer has been posthumously cancelled:

Norman Mailer’s long-time publisher has recently informed the Mailer family that it has canceled plans to publish a collection of his political writings to mark the centennial of his birth in 2023, confirms the film producer Michael Mailer, the author’s oldest son. The back-door apologies at Random House include as the proximate cause — you hardly have to look hard in Mailer’s work to find offenses against contemporary doctrine and respectability — a junior staffer’s objection to the title of Mailer’s 1957 essay, “The White Negro”, a psycho-sexual-druggie precursor and model for much of the psycho-sexual-druggie literature that became popular in the 1960s.

Mailer’s work will not be any great loss; he is part of the Boomer-era literary decline that saw the elevation of mediocre writers like Bellow, Kerouac, Roth, and Mailer himself at the expense of people who could a) actually write and b) had something to say about the human condition that didn’t revolve around narcissism and sex with mediocre women. But his cancellation is not without significance, as it demonstrates that evil will always cast even its most celebrated servants aside as soon as they cease to be useful.

The New Blasphemy Laws

Freedom of speech and freedom of expression were never about free speech or free expression. If you haven’t figured that out yet, you simply haven’t been paying attention:

The Army and Air Force Exchange Service is emphasizing a ban on the sale of lewd or profane products in its stores after a vendor in Alaska sold figurines carrying a crude catch phrase aimed at the commander in chief.

In the days leading up to Christmas, a temporary vendor at the exchange on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage sold wooden bear figurines fashioned to resemble former President Donald Trump and holding signs reading, “Let’s Go Brandon,” according to the Anchorage Daily News, which first reported the sales.

The foot-tall bears sported long red ties and slicked-back blond hair in Trump fashion, the newspaper said.

“Let’s Go Brandon” serves as code for some who oppose Joe Biden’s presidency. Pro-Trump crowds routinely chant the phrase during rallies, and it now adorns T-shirts, hats, coffee mugs and a host of other merchandise popular with conservatives.

It’s time to start applying the actual anti-blasphemy and anti-obscenity laws, many of which are still on the books. The Christian society we had then was vastly superior to the inverted one we have now. It begins with a) Christianity, b) clean speech, and c) the parallel economy.

Don’t swear, don’t strip, and don’t support satanry.

It Has Always Been The Flu

The Andrew Anglin committee very patiently spells everything out for even the most retarded.

If you’ve already understood this little game you can play with the media’s “different from the flu hoax,” then I apologize for talking to you like you’re a retard, but I hope it amused you. If you still don’t understand this and are still talking about how “covid is different from the flu because you lose your sense of smell,” after reading me explain this to you for two years, then you literally are retarded, and you deserve to be talked to like a retarded person.

None of the claims that I have made have been outrageous, none of them have been disproved, all of them probably qualify as self-evident.

What we appear to have here is another “midwit crisis.”

When I tell some guy working at the Sunoco, “this is all just a big hoax – they just renamed the flu,” the standard reply is “man, that’s what I been saying!”

Meanwhile, most intelligent people on the internet have completely given up on all of this bat soup and lab leak gibberish, and have come around to agree that the alleged coronavirus is a rebranding of the flu.

This is what I have said:

It didn’t come from bat soup
It didn’t come from a laboratory
The government is openly faking the numbers
Hospitals are openly being paid by the government to fake numbers
Hospitals are being paid to put people on ventilators that kill them
It is not more deadly than the normal flu (we have no way of knowing exact numbers because of all of the fakery, but none of you know anyone who died from it)
It does not have unique characteristics that have not been recorded in previous flus
The way it was allegedly isolated is absurd, and proves nothing
The PCR test is a joke
Antibody tests pick up antibodies for the common cold, which is also a coronavirus
The widely-distributed vaccine is now causing a disease indistinguishable from “covid-19”
And, most importantly:

If the media and government wouldn’t have mentioned the existence of a new disease, no one would have noticed a new disease. That includes hospitals.

There would have been back page news stories about a flu outbreak in Italy and a malaria outbreak in India, like there are back page articles about regional disease outbreaks every year. It’s possible that papers in medical journals would have been published about differences in the 2020 flu strand, but it’s unlikely, because there are no identifiably unique characteristics of “coronavirus” in comparison with the normal respiratory viruses we’ve always had. That’s all.

The “coronavirus pandemic” is a complete creation of the government/media, and of the lying medical industrial complex, with the obvious purpose of completely restructuring global human society at rocket-pace.

They want you to stop working, they want you on a digital currency UBI system, they want to cram you into high-rise tenements where you can watch Netflix and porn until you die.

He’s generally right. There was no effective bioweapon; it is the vaccine that is the bioweapon. While there have obviously been serial attempts to manufacture a gain-of-function, disease-based bioweapon for decades, the way this scenario has played out suggests that those efforts have continued to fail and the rebranding and replacement of the flu was the result of plan F being put into play.

Even though I coined the acronym MPAI, the expansive limits of human stupidity still manage to astonish me. The way in which a substantial portion of the population actually fell for the magical “disappearance of the flu in 2020” meme will forever mark the hard boundary between “functioning mind” and “non-functioning mind” for me.

It is interesting to see the way in which “midwit” has entered the language though. I’m glad to see that other observers of the human condition are finding it to be a useful concept.
