The King of Clowns is in town, he pays people to see his show! Quick, bring your lazy children who don't want to study to see their abject future in the King of Clowns show!
Thank you, Celia. It seems your purpose in this world (one of them, anyway) is to shine your flashlight in the direction that no one else in this darkened world is looking. 🙏🏼
Thank you for the comment on feminists. I am always moved when I encounter women standing up for men. And when the woman is a true heroine as yourself Celia, it is even better.
Of course they can, but mens pain for not being appreciated/loved as a sex is profound. Therefore it is really heartwarming when you come across a woman, who articulates that she is grateful for the contributions men make.
another assumption. In my family, my father was very appreciated and loved....by his wife and kids. My parents both worked and provided love and things we needed (not always wanted) and had a wonderful 63 years of marriage! My father credits his wife with helping him create the wonderful life they had together. She was a feminist in the same spirit as her mother and her grandmother and great grandmother. All of whom graduated from college and supported families and their community (volunteering/participating in church and non-church functions).
Such broad strokes to pigeonhole women into such small boxes. What a shame!
Hans lives in a country that uses socialism with capitalism to improve the lives of families. Not so in the USA. So maybe Denmark values men and women more than the USA which values militarism (more than 800 military bases around the world) which is why women and men must compete for fewer and fewer jobs and basic needs.
I guess we are all in favor of equal opportunities. I firmly believe we have had that in Denmark for many years. If there is a legal/governmental bias, it is in favor of women. Naturally that has not resulted in equal outcome. Men and women have different biology, and different values and preferences. Very important it is quite distinct what improves your chances with the opposite sex. If you have sons, teach them about hypergamy. That should boost their ambitions. A strong community needs strong men and strong women. It’s more fun to be a woman in a society where the men are happy and have self esteem and self confidence. And vice versa. The danish ngo Manderådet (The Male Council” have the slogan “When one sex loses they both lose”. For some peculiar reason women don’t find shy men with no self esteem very attractive.
I think you are perfectly right about the Scandinavians and particularly the Swedes. The traditional male role has always been the protector and the provider, and on a societal level it is interesting to see how Sweden has been destroyed by immigration. The very very feminist Sweden has castrated the man in his traditional role as protecter.
Listened to the interview with Harold Daggett. I still identify strongly with "working class" jobs as an essential part of American identity and spirit and masculinity, even. The idea of destroying these jobs, and their dignity--and replacing them with "high-minded" bourgeoisie do-nothing managerial (now "bio-tech") "I'm so elite & smart & important" bullshit, like so many "great reset" agendas playing out now--seem to have some of their modern origins in 1960s anti-God, anti-western, even anti-work Marxism/atheism.
There is also the China/India situation to factor in here. On the west coast, where I live, large swaths of these people have been imported over the past twenty years. They are all about the great reset bio-technocracy (totally obsessed with pharmokia and "computers"), have no connection to the America of my ancestors, and are happy to do the bidding of everything Agenda 2030 because it resonates strongly with their own prejudices, and their desire to have money, and status and power. As such, I suspect we no longer have a simple battle between "white working class" vs. "white bourgeoisie greedy billionaire pricks," but a battle between this artificially engineered new Asian "immigrant" population (most of whom are immediately wealthy and benefit from "automation" and could give a shit about white working class people) and people like the longshoremen. I know this has been engineered and is part of "their" agenda and is one of the reasons for "COVID."
God bless the longshoremen. May they succeed in getting the raise they deserve. I have no empathy at all for the billionaire class.
The real man jobs are the ones that the socialist wannabes don't seem to think are important. They're all for ushering everyone into college, so that they can indoctrinate them. Where are the trade schools, or trades themselves, anymore? I read that soon we will have a major lack of electricians. The socialists want UBI and don't even think about who is going to do the work while they sit on their nonworking asses.
Indeed. In the West, this, yes, elitist socialist ideology has been pushed hard since the late 1960s, when certain trade and physical labor jobs (say, mechanic, trash collector, factory worker) were deemed as "racist" or "classist" because certain groups of people were "forced" to do them. As such, it was decreed by our managerial class overlords that everyone would henceforth become a "doctor" or "lawyer" or "engineer" or "manager" (hence "elite important person") and not a "dirty low-life neanderthal worker." At the time (late 1960s), when the country was majority European-American, perhaps such a notion had a measure of truth to it. But at the same time, I can still see that a great many of these blue collar jobs had a measure of dignity and security attached to them that has been completely lost today, especially since the taking off the H-1B visa Asian bio-tech "immigration" transformation of America into a major hub of the great reset agenda. These categories of American mythology, which were relatively stable for a century, have been decimated in a couple of years.
Indeed. I can't speak to that specific situation, but let me just say that in San Diego, the only people that can now live "normal" lives--lives with enough money to buy lots of expensive "stuff," and have leisure time, and take vacations, and make actual financial choices (due to the absolutely engineered lack of affordability in this once most affordable of California cities)--are those from the just arrived "immigrants" from the Sino and Hindu-sphere.
But it's so far beyond this in San Diego. I would say we are moving into "Asian majority" territory here, and it's been engineered overnight. Our dark overlords have made San Diego into Vancouver or Toronto (if you know the demographics in those places) over the past few years. When I drive down Mira Mesa Blvd, in North San Diego County, every single person is from South or East or Southeast Asia. When I shop at Costco in North County, every single person is from South or East or Southeast Asia. Recently, I have started to see Sikhs everywhere. I did not see Sikhs very often before "COVID." Now, I see them everywhere. At one of the cheaper beach areas in San Diego where I rented for a decade in the 1990s, I rarely saw anyone from South or East or Southeast Asia. Now, there are people everywhere in that community from South and East and Southeast Asia everywhere, including buying up the massively unaffordable properties there for "investment." (Every single person from China I have ever met is immediately involved in landlordism.).
"Yet, different Castes sue for discrimination and are successful."
Wikipedia has become riddled with insanely long articles regarding the torturous legal bullshit related to South and East Asian "discrimination" over the course of the last century. All of this (including the H-1B visa thing) has taken off with great verve since say, 9/11.
I am aware of the value of my opinion, nevertheless I submit it. It is my opinion that the speed with which the fecal matter is heading toward the ventilating device will increase exponentially between now and November fifth.
Except that Trump rolled out operation Warp speed, a genocidal campaign under the cover of 'public healthcare'. Who was targeted mostly again....oh yes, the working class for fear of losing their jobs. Kennedy you say? Who KNOWS the carnage these shots are causing yet conveniently shifts our focus to healthy foods. No healthy organically grown foods will recover severely injured, or dead, babies. DEAD BABIES. Trump/Kennedy + Biden/Harris = two sides of the same globalist coin.
Absolutely. A big clown show, created for our distraction. Laughably ridiculous. How is it even possible that Trump, Kennedy and Musk are seen as "heroes"? It's crazy. I wish people would wake up.
The devil wins, 100%. Look where we've gotten to, when it's the popular mainstream opinion that fetuses are "parasites" to be gotten rid of? So sick! And so luciferian.
Well said. We're definitely on the same page there. I saw some really ugly behavior during those "abortion rallies" after that Supreme Court decision. They were satanic and disgusting.
When Biden was installed I thought, they may have their Blood Lust Globalists, but we have our Tough as Nails Truckers. Little did I think, the world has Longshoreman. Haven’t decided what exactly that means other than, be prepared.
At 70 years of age and having worked construction for 50 of those years, the longshoremen have been the golden boys, and now girls. Best conditions and home every day, or night. Often earning multiple wages and benefits over the rest of the working class. I have no time to dig into their drama but I have witnessed their protectionism and nepotism over the years and assure you that you have paid amply over the years for their control of the docks.
On the west coast, long shore men were making around $160,000 about 10 yrs ago. Yes, they facilitate the delivery of imports but compare that to a trucker who actually moves the product and makes about 1/3rd of that. Maybe this can help Americans realize they need to bring mfg back onshore.
Goodness me..this is so reminiscient of here in New Zealand (have you heard of us even ?!) where the dock workers had/have exactly the same situation as you write of !...full of nepotism and perks....."You want to become a dock worker ? you need to be born into the family of one !" I recall one instance where they insisted on extra money for unloading new toilet pans...for "embarrassment compensation " .....seems that unions are all more than a little similar around the globe...funny that. Not.
Hello Celia: I have been so overwhelmed with my own work along with this fourth turning pandemonium and the nefarious actions of Soros and WEF that I’ve had little time to review the claims of that union. I can relate it like this: well fed creatures will protest as loudly, or more so, than the poorly fed when their rations are reduced. We all are experiencing a reduction in the “nutritional” value of our rations. The longshoremen are in the “enviable” position to attract much attention when they complain by stopping work. They might want to take care in consideration that many of us could replace them and in doing so we would raise our standard of living! We would have to chest carry firearms and have long rifles as backup because once they knew they were out, they wouldn’t behave like the fired ATC during Reagans administration. Cheers to a simpler and less materialistic life! Hope to know you better. Alaska is getting colder now. Hope to find some warm sunny place for a rest🙂
Thanks for mentioning feminists. I once considered myself a feminist, but now it means dominating men with the help of DEI, and supporting the killing of unborn children. I used to be pro-choice, but seeing Democrat/Liberal women frothing at the mouth demanding they can kill a fetus at any point in its development, plus learning all about how fetus tissue is used, made me barf my guts up. Finally, the trans agenda is supported by mainstream feminists who do not even realize that its whole raison d'etre is misogyny. And even the radical feminists who detest the trans agenda support abortion at any stage of the fetus' life. Sorry this is so off-topic, but modern feminism has become yet another post-modernist avenue towards Marxism and communism.
Great article - we've been conditioned to ignore the miraculous contributions of men to the cultivation of modern civilization, which is pretty insane when you break it down.
Ever read the real story of what the novel Moby Dick was based upon? It's enough to blow ones' mind, how tough men were and what they were capable of and what they'd risk only 200 years ago. Now, we have stylish soy boys shopping with their wives at Macy's. Except for the men such as longshoremen, the truckers who defied Turdeau, and a host of others that are being marginalized and crowded out by "technology."
I agree with you 100%. We've been duped. More than 10 yrs ago I told my Christian friends don't by Christian books from secular stores it will water down the books and hurt CHRISTIAN bookstores. Now they're gone and the quality you get are horrible psychobabble. They thought I was crazy. I said the same thing about Amaxon, Walmart, Target,... 85% of the small Now the mom and pop stores where they knew your name and gave you great service are gone. I wonder how many of the homeless are men and women are those we thought were unimportant are those who've lost jobs because of our indifference. The list goes on...
Why are you grossed out? Because she's Catholic? Whatever the context of my post was the collapse in the marketplace we, the consumer, did not understand the implications for supporting large global companies.
No, I'm Catholic. I'm grossed out by what I said: Christians hawking apps to "talk" to God. That's akin to the tax collectors/thieves in the temple, trying to make a buck.
Did you know that some church leaders are using AI now to write their sermons for them ? unbelievable but sadly, true. Whatever happened to the leading of the Holy Spirit for this ???
Welcome back Celia from what turned into a 'working ' break. Globalists want control over everyone's life including the ILA, & every other transport business. Thank you for zeroing in on the evils of automation., and the growing resistance A resistance that is ready & willing to go to the wall to stop the money grab. Time has come to tell corporate globalists that enough is enough. The people don't want, & will fight against, Wall Street's endless push for greater wealth even if it means automating every human job into extinction. Enough is enough !!!
I have zero interest in hearing the opinion about this from any economist of any academic sect who defends genocides and mass poisoning campaigns and the evil socialism of the social engineering of high-tech companies.
The opinion of the enablers of communism is worthless, on any issue, really
I grew up in Fla. where UNION is a four-letter word. Strangely enough, my mom was a teacher and member of the union...which did nothing to help fight for raises but did help lousy teachers keep their jobs. I knew nothing about my mom being in a union until 10 years after she retired.
I lived in Oakland, CA w/ my now, husband, in 2010...was there when Occupy Oakland kicked off and that is where I learned about ILWU and the history of unions and labor movements in the Bay Area. ILWU is the only TRUE member driven labor union (unlike the Teamsters) and they have the history to prove it. They helped us OO people shut down the port of Oakland TWICE (Teamsters went along on the 24 hr shutdown which was the second shutdown we did) and they might be the only union to mobilize a serious threat to crapitalism. However, there are chapters that cave to pressure and betray their own....as I found out when ILWU Local 21 bowed down after a good fight against EGT in Longview. I and many other OO's were preparing to go up there to put more pressure on EGT to honor their promises.
Thanks for posting this.....I believe this is going to be an interesting event at the very least.
If you want to dive into ILWU history ...“Bloody Thursday”, July 5, 1934, a day that shook San Francisco. Jack Heyman is also a hero in the labor history books.
You are spot on. My Dad told me about one of his first jobs in his youth working for United Airlines at San Francisco Airport in the late 1950s pulling parts from a big storeroom. One day he decided to wear roller skates to be able to move faster. Within one day his union boss told him to stop it or be fired since skates mean fewer union jobs. He had to stop being efficient instead of being rewarded with longer break time or wages which he considered logical. The very next day after he stopped wearing skates all the top union bosses at the facility had brand new luxury cars parked in their reserved spots paid for by United Airlines. As the corrupt infamous US Senator William "Copper King" Clark said, "I never bought a man who was not for sale."
Thanks for being on top of the story Celia.
I have been a childbirth educator agitating for couples to learn childbirth self reliance for just such a time as this.
In class one day I asked, “what if you cannot buy fuel for your car to drive to the hospital?”
Everyone was still. Could that happen?
Yes it can.
Just know that many families are fully prepared to do their own births without any outside help.

why can't men and women stand for each other and their own sex at the same time?
Of course they can, but mens pain for not being appreciated/loved as a sex is profound. Therefore it is really heartwarming when you come across a woman, who articulates that she is grateful for the contributions men make.

Indeed.

The real story behind it might be even more interesting - I thought it was.
They had to resort to cannibalism, and even that didn't save 'em.

Thank you for zeroing in on the evils of automation., and the growing resistance A resistance that is ready & willing to go to the wall to stop the money grab. Time has come to tell corporate globalists that enough is enough. The people don't want, & will fight against, Wall Street's endless push for greater wealth even if it means automating every human job into extinction. Enough is enough !!!
I have zero interest in hearing the opinion about this from any economist of any academic sect who defends genocides and mass poisoning campaigns and the evil socialism of the social engineering of high-tech companies.
The opinion of the enablers of communism is worthless, on any issue, really
Thank you for widening my view, once again.
I grew up in Fla. where UNION is a four-letter word. Strangely enough, my mom was a teacher and member of the union...which did nothing to help fight for raises but did help lousy teachers keep their jobs. I knew nothing about my mom being in a union until 10 years after she retired.
I lived in Oakland, CA w/ my now, husband, in 2010...was there when Occupy Oakland kicked off and that is where I learned about ILWU and the history of unions and labor movements in the Bay Area. ILWU is the only TRUE member driven labor union (unlike the Teamsters) and they have the history to prove it. They helped us OO people shut down the port of Oakland TWICE (Teamsters went along on the 24 hr shutdown which was the second shutdown we did) and they might be the only union to mobilize a serious threat to crapitalism. However, there are chapters that cave to pressure and betray their own....as I found out when ILWU Local 21 bowed down after a good fight against EGT in Longview. I and many other OO's were preparing to go up there to put more pressure on EGT to honor their promises.
Thanks for posting this.....I believe this is going to be an interesting event at the very least.
If you want to dive into ILWU history ...“Bloody Thursday”, July 5, 1934, a day that shook San Francisco. Jack Heyman is also a hero in the labor history books.
You are spot on. My Dad told me about one of his first jobs in his youth working for United Airlines at San Francisco Airport in the late 1950s pulling parts from a big storeroom. One day he decided to wear roller skates to be able to move faster. Within one day his union boss told him to stop it or be fired since skates mean fewer union jobs. He had to stop being efficient instead of being rewarded with longer break time or wages which he considered logical. The very next day after he stopped wearing skates all the top union bosses at the facility had brand new luxury cars parked in their reserved spots paid for by United Airlines. As the corrupt infamous US Senator William "Copper King" Clark said, "I never bought a man who was not for sale."
