Apocalypse kabuki
Let’s look beyond the hubris and hypocrisy for a moment.
Nancy Pelosi has made her attempt to put the SalonGate behind her. She says it was a setup, “…and that’s all I’m going to say about that.” So while there is very little in this world more pathetic than the spectacle of an eighty-year-old woman fulminating like a cornered gangster in a 1930s B-movie, there is something else, something of greater interest that I have realized thanks to this episode.
It has connected in my mind with two other political oxymorons from recent years. You see, Nancy has been saying all sorts of apocalyptic things about COVID-19. And there she was, flouncing around a hair salon without a mask, breaking rules that she loudly condemned others for infringing.
It reminded me of old Al Gore.
Al was the former vice president who has made a fabulous fortune saying apocalyptic things. He said back in 2006 that we were at or near peak oil and that from then on we would begin to run out of economically viable oil. He painted a grim picture of what that would mean for “the people” especially “the poor.”
Mr Gore wanted to enforce all kinds of conservation measures on “the people.” There was talk of living in homes with the thermostat set at 68 or lower, shutting off “unnecessary” lights — you know, live in the cold and the dark. All the while the average family in America was using less than a twentieth of the energy that Al Gore’s mansion in Tennessee was using, and I bet some of them were still nice and warm and able to walk from one room to another without having to constantly hit two light switches. For all his sanctimony, humbug and self-congratulation he was awarded the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize. If you don’t believe me about the sanctimony part, just read his Nobel speech.
How can you think about Al Gore without thinking about Climate Change? So I was reminded of Barack and Michelle Obama. After Peak Oil was relegated to the trash heap of apocalypses that never posed, it was Global Warming When Global Warming was made to look foolish by the arrival of good data and the debunking of bad data. That apocalypse trans-metamorphosed into Climate Change with its terrifying prospect of the great coastal cities drowning as a result of rising sea levels.
The Obama administration was very alarmed that the climate might change so they enacted many regulations and Presidential Orders to, among other things, stem the supposed rising of the oceans around the world. Then, even as the Trump administration has been dismantling those economy-killing regulations at an alarming pace, the Obamas bought a $12 million estate, right on the water on Martha’s Vineyard! Oh, yes, and by the way, back in 2017, Al Gore bought a nice little ocean view villa in Montecito, California, for almost $9 million.
Whether its doddering old “Marie Antoinette Pelosi” or unspeakably pompous and smug millionaires living by the placid and peaceful seaside, it all began to say one thing to me — a thing I had not thought of before. The Apocalypse is just kabuki theater for these nabobs of the elite class. That’s not to say that there isn’t a kernel of truth in the concerns that they play on; but they lie and exaggerate and leave out any good news. And for that, they have the chorus and cheering section of the media to verify them too. It’s a powerful combination.
They simply do not care if the danger they act out is real, as long as we “the people” get scared into compliance and treat them with the respect and gratitude to which they believe they are entitled. They think of this as leadership. But where are they leading us?
The fact is, they do not care where the kabuki ends. We know for certain that the energy regulations were part of many failures of leadership that made the Obama years a time of hideously slow economic recovery. We are also becoming aware that the lockdowns of 2020 have probably hurt many more people’s lives and prospects than the virus would have done without them. Yet the lockdown talk and apocalyptic fervor continues unabated. Any attempt by to consider ending the lockdowns leads to Twitter and Facebook expulsions, general calumny and even job losses.If you need more proof that all they care about is control, and their own careers (aka re-election and/or advancement) Just look at the end results of all their caterwauling and drumbeating.
It is burning cities all over the United States as I write this. Because the up and coming Apocalypse of the moment is. Systemic Racism. In true apocalyptic fashion, you cannot escape- if you deny being racist it just means you are so much worse that an open racist because you are part of the system. Your life and prospects can be destroyed by it- just try to tell too many people that “all lives matter”. “Marie Antoinette Pelosi,” Joe Biden and the rest of the white supporters of this nasty fiction have no idea where this leads but they kneel and bow to it on every opportunity. Why? Because the Apocalypse is their ticket and they are the kabuki troupe.
They know they are lying to us, frightening, demeaning and intimidating us. Its hard work but they do it with gusto. But then, like any actor in any sort of drama, they tire of the kabuki exertions and deprivations. It’s very hard for anyone to sustain this kind of façade without slipping. In Hollywood and Broadway, it’s called “staying in character.” Out here in America, away from the stage of the kabuki, one of the nicest names we have for it is “being a phony.” Perhaps this is why the entertainment elite, they of the aggressively virtuous personae, is so solid and vociferous in support of the kabuki. With the media, they are another drum-beating chorus.
All they care about is their own power, comfort, immunity from real labor and continued dominance. They don’t care how they get it. So if they have to put on a mask and act out an apocalyptic vision on occasion, well, O.K., as long as Nancy can get her hair blown out and Al and Barack can sit by the sea and watch it not rise.
It’s only when you understand that they will blithely do exactly what they have threatened you will kill you, that you can see that they are just putting on a drama: Behind the heavy mask of the kabuki, is the the face of a tyrant.

The Democrat Party is now Communist. The riots by its shock troops are fronts having nothing to do with 𝕮𝖔𝖔𝖓 𝕷𝖎𝖛𝖊𝖘 𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙𝖊𝖗. The chaos orchestrated by the Dem Left is designed strictly for seizing political power for the revived Communist International (“Comintern,” aka World Socialist Party) run by billionaire globalists in bed with Communist China.
Everywhere in the so-called “protest” riots, the walls are spray-painted with the words “Fuck Trump!” (Nowhere does one see the phrase “Fuck Pelosi!”) It is all a display of violence — and threat of worse to come — to scare the American proletariat into handing power over to the Marxists. In other words, to overthrow the government of the United States.
The media, as ordered, deny all of this. As the old saying goes, the neatest trick of the devil is to convince people that he does not exist. By portraying the Red frenzy as just a bunch of spontaneous peaceniks exercising their “constitutional rights,” the print, TV and online Bolsheviks are using Trojan horse tactics to delude the simpleton masses and usurp power. (One notices the successful Marxist infiltration of even the Vatican using crypto-Commie Papa Frank.) If the Left wins in November, the coming presidential election will be the last true one ever held in America.
In fact, all of the statements and tactics of the Biden-fronted Dem Party are those of the traditional Communist Party of earlier decades. Deceit is their main tool. Even the title “Antifa” (= “Anti-Fascism”) is little more than an updated version of the old Commie front name, “American League Against War and Fascism.” And given the fact that few Americans today know the horrors that Marxism by its very nature commits, we may be in for an unpleasant surprise if the fast-sinking, rotting-brained puppet from the basement is victorious.
A small example: to show his support for the Maoist Asian killers, the candidate from the crypt said, “The Chinese are fine people.”
Although he somehow neglected to mention their genocidist Red regime. Maybe it just slipped his mind.

“The Best Electricity Plan: Overbuild Solar & Wind Power Plants”
https://cleantechnica.com/2020/09/07/the-best-electricity-plan-overbuild-solar-wind-power-plants/
“Meanwhile, the report found that, creating more electricity than required during regular hours to meet high energy use (but during low wind hours) would have lower costs compared to storing the excess energy for higher consumption later (of course, this is based on the assumption we won’t see any storage breakthroughs in that time)…The result with regards to this study is clear: it makes even more sense to simply overbuild cheap wind and solar power plants than to try to fill in the gaps between supply and demand using fossil fuel power plants. Even leaving environmental matters out of it, it’s simply cheaper to overbuild low-cost solar and wind power plants. What seemed like a radical idea back in 2012 is gaining increasing support today. More and more people see that, indeed, solar power, wind power, and batteries have become cheap enough that you don’t need “baseload power” or other filler power plants in many places. Naturally, the precise splits in energy sources and how much they are overbuilt is something best explored for individual regions or utility districts.”

“The One Big Problem With Green Hydrogen”
https://oilprice.com/Alternative-Energy/Fuel-Cells/The-One-Big-Problem-With-Green-Hydrogen.html
“To date, green hydrogen costs between three and six times more to produce than grey or blue hydrogen, according to a senior analyst from Guidehouse quoted by the Wall Street Journal. That is a significant deterrent to the adoption of a technology, but the net-zero drive is changing all this. According to Guidehouse’s Dan Hahn, the cost of green hydrogen production will start going down pretty soon thanks to the investments being made in its advancement… Meanwhile, analysts seem to agree that fossil fuel costs will rise over the next decades, evening the playing field with hydrogen. Wood Mackenzie’s Gallagher, for example, expects the cost of grey hydrogen, the sort produced using coal and gas, to rise by as much as 82 percent by 2040, because of an expected increase in natural gas prices. The cost of blue hydrogen, the sort produced using natural gas combined with carbon capture and storage, is seen rising by 59 percent by 2040, again because of rising natural gas prices. It seems the competitiveness of green hydrogen relies heavily on natural gas prices. If prices do not rise as analysts expect them to, this competitiveness may be compromised, no matter how many billions of energy companies invest in the technology. On the other hand, with the cost of renewable electricity also falling, the cost of producing hydrogen using solar and wind could continue to decline steadily, especially when factoring in excess energy produced by solar and wind farms.”

“The Ghost in the Machine”
https://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/the-ghost-in-the-machine/
“The Labor Day starting-gun kicks off the high campaign season and Ol’ White Joe wobbles forth from his lair under a rock somewhere to dazzle audiences of six or eight sympathetic journos posed in “social distancing” formation while the party’s Antifa and BLM shock troops soften up voters elsewhere across the land with vote-winning riots, arson, and looting. There’s a recipe for political success! You have to wonder how the claque of DC deep state players behind this fiasco could come up with a game-plan so stupidly inept… but there it is! Apparently, they’re laying further plans now to bum-rush Ol’ Joe into the White House by main force with a “color revolution”… The plan was all over the web wires this holiday weekend. Everybody knows exactly what to expect now: a November 3 Trump election victory followed by a king-tide of post-election write-in votes for Ol’ Joe… a long, drawn-out, and surely inconclusive battle trying to validate scores of millions of postmarks and signatures… and a skein of Lawfare-managed shenanigans conducted in battleground state legislatures to change-out electoral college slates. And any objections by Mr. Trump and his party will be labeled as Putin-backed fascist treason. Will that result in Mr. Biden actually gliding into the oval office? No, it will bring on a years’ long quasi civil war sure to finish off the institutions of a federal republic and also whatever remains of the US economy. Is that what y’all really want, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary & Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Adam Schiff, Bill Kristol, David Frum, Dean Baquet, and five hundred other seditious political degenerates out there?… That ragtag mob and their Democratic Party “allies” have been trying their goshdarndest for half a year to produce a crop of Kent State style martyrs at the hands of police to horrify the conscience of the nation…but so far, no luck. Instead they have to settle for a succession of thugs-on-drugs resisting arrest violently, and getting themselves shot or killed in the process”

Quietly let Keir Starmer know that England will be welcome back into the Common Market after BoJo. No special UK-privileges/rebates anymore, and no Euro either. We can have a permanent English Observer to the EU, who is allowed to sit with the Europeans when they negotiate matters that affect English interests, but that’s it. The same rules will apply to England, like to everybody else.
Use the coming Anglo ice age to rake in Scotland, Ulster, Gibraltar and the City and most important: get rid of the self-serving WW1 and WW2 myths and restore the honor of Germany. Expect Russia to provide the documents in return for membership of the Common European Home:

There is no such thing as the Palestinian people. They are Arabs living in Israel and fire rockets to terrorize the Jewish state. Israel has the right to exist and defend itself. Iran is the real threat to the Middle East and should be forced to sign the NNPT and allow UN weapons inspectors to inspect Iranian facilities.

The next phase of the 25-year deal between China and Iran will focus on a large-scale roll-out of electronic espionage and warfare capabilities focused around the port of Chabahar and extending for a nearly 5,000 kilometer (3,000 mile) radius, and the concomitant build-out of mass surveillance and monitoring of the Iranian population, in line with the standard operating procedure across China, senior sources close to the Iranian government told OilPrice.com last week.
Both of these elements dovetail into Beijing’s strategic vision for Iran as a fully-functioning client state of China by the end of the 25-year period. By that time, Iran will be an irreplaceable geographical and geopolitical foundation stone in Beijing’s ‘One Belt, One Road’ project, as well as providing a large pool of young, well-educated, relatively cheap labor for Chinese industry. The mass surveillance, monitoring, and control systems to cover Iran’s population is to begin its full roll-out as from the second week of November, after the final agreement on event sequencing has been reached in the third week of October at a meeting between Iran’s most senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and intelligence services figures and their Chinese counterparts.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, already agreed on the broad plans in July, according to the Iran sources.
“The plan is for nearly 10 million extra CCTV [closed-circuit television] cameras to be placed in Iran’s seven most populous cities, to begin with, plus another five million or so pinhole surveillance cameras to be placed at the same time in another 21 cities, with all of these being directly linked in to China’s main state surveillance and monitoring systems,” said an Iran source.
“This will enable the full integration of Iran into the next generation of China’s algorithmic surveillance system that allows for the targeting of behavior down to the level of the individual by combining these inputs with already-stored local, national, and regional records on each citizen, together with their virtual data footprints,” he said.
“At the same time as this, China will start to trial its own heavily-censored version of the internet via the Great Firewall of China [that prohibits foreign internet sites], in Iran, and to begin the broad roll-out of Mandarin as a key foreign language to be learned in school, initially alongside English, but then to replace English,” one of the Iran sources added.
“By the end of this process, these seven cities in Iran will be among the top 25 most surveilled cities in the world,” he underlined.
This Sino-technologicalisation of Iran is essential to the use of Iran’s labor force by China, as envisioned in the original 25-year plan that was agreed between Iran’s Foreign Minister, Mohammad Zarif, and his China counterpart, Wang Li, last year – itself a development of the previous strategic co-operation deal agreed in 2016. Specifically, Beijing intends to build factories and other centers of business that function as extensions of existing businesses in China, with the same machinery, technology, and production lines, managed by Chinese personnel who have been overseeing identical production lines in mainland China.
“It will be exactly like a factory has been picked up from the middle of China by a giant hand and then placed into Iran, just like Apple operates in China or Chinese firms operate in various African countries,” one of the Iran sources said.
The resultant products will then be able to access Western markets by dint of another element of the new 25-year deal, which will be the new transport infrastructure to be financed and implemented by Chinese companies in Iran. Shortly after the new 25-year deal was presented by Iran’s Vice President, Eshaq Jahangiri (and senior figures from the Economic and Finance Ministry, the Petroleum Ministry, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei) late last year, Jahangiri announced that Iran had signed a contract with China to implement a project to electrify the main 900 kilometer railway connecting Tehran to the north-eastern city of Mashhad. Adjunct to this, Jahangiri added that there are also plans to establish a Tehran-Qom-Isfahan high-speed train line and to extend this upgraded network up to the north-west through Tabriz.
In tandem with this increased surveillance of the population, China will use the end of the global arms embargo on Iran on 18 October to begin fast-tracked preparations for its increased military presence in Iran, as part of the ‘China-Iran Integrated Defence Strategy’ of the 25-year deal exclusively revealed by OilPrice.com in July. The top priority in these preparations will be ensuring that the military hardware and personnel that China, and Russia, are set to deploy as from the second week of November, are not vulnerable to attack. This equally applies to the oil and gas resources upon which Chinese and Russian firms are still working, despite the U.S. sanctions on Iran, under the guise of standalone contracts. Such efforts would encompass each of the three key EW areas – electronic support (including early warning of enemy weapons use) plus electronic attack (including jamming systems) plus electronic protection (including of enemy jamming), although in the Chinese system, unlike in the traditional Western model, cyber and electronic warfare have been merged into a single discipline.
More specifically, Iran will be host to a range of technology, equipment, and systems coming from both China and Russia, as part of a three-pronged usage strategy for Iran that includes – in addition to the monitoring, surveillance of the workforce – proactive intelligence-gathering capabilities, and an extensive defensive apparatus, as part of, in particular, Russia’s standard anti-access/area denial (A2/AD) operational approach in these conditions. Included in the hardware of the military package, according to the Iran sources, will be the highly-regarded Russian S-400 anti-missile air defense system and the Krasukha-2 and -4 systems that proved successful in Syria. This equipment will function alongside the new dual-use civilian/military centers across Iran, for the air force and naval assets. “In the same way that the Russian military Khmeimim Air Base near Latakia functions alongside the civilian Bassel Al-Assad International Airport in Syria, sharing many facilities, so many of the existing Iranian airports that are designated for this dual-use will be extended to accommodate warplanes from China, and to a lesser degree, Russia,” according to one of the Iranian sources.
“This process will begin with purpose-built dual-use facilities next to the existing airports at Hamedan, Bandar Abbas, Chabahar, and Abadan,” he added.
Indeed, OilPrice.com understands from these sources that the bombers to be deployed in the first instance will be China-modified versions of the long-range Russian Tupolev Tu-22M3s, with a manufacturing specification range of 6,800 kilometers (2,410 km with a typical weapons load), and the fighters will be the all-weather supersonic medium-range fighter bomber/strike Sukhoi Su-34, plus the newer single-seat stealth attack Sukhoi-57. It is apposite to note that in August 2016, Russia used the Hamedan airbase to launch attacks on targets in Syria using both Tupolev-22M3 long-range bombers and Sukhoi-34 strike fighters.
At the same time, Chinese and Russian military vessels will be able to use newly-created dual-use facilities at Iran’s key ports at Chabahar, Bandar-e-Bushehr, and Bandar Abbas, constructed by Chinese companies. These companies will have attached to their workforces another 5,000 Chinese ‘security personnel’ on the ground to protect the Chinese projects, although many of these will be air force pilots, warship and submarine officers, special forces officers, and intelligence officers, in addition to straightforward army personnel. “This number will be increased to nearly 50,000 military and neo-military Chinese and Russian personnel within the next 14 months, with around half of that number focussed on developing and safeguarding China’s oil and gas assets in Iran and the other half being used in air force, navy, and intelligence hands-on and training roles,” one of the Iran sources said.
In tandem with all of this, as from the second week of November, China plans to build one of the biggest intelligence gathering listening stations in the world, in Chabahar.
“It will have a staff of nearly 1,000, comprising top Chinese intelligence and communications experts, plus some Russians to support their equipment and technology in the field, with a very small number of Iranians chosen from the top ranks of the IRGC in training, and will have a near-5,000 kilometer radius range,” he said.
“This will allow the station to intercept, monitor, and neutralize the C4ISR [Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance] systems used by NATO members and associate members, including U.S.-friendly countries in the region, most notably, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Israel,” he added.
As such, the Chabahar facility will allow Beijing to extend its reach in monitoring and disrupting the communications of its perceived enemies across an area ranging from the edge of Austria in the West (including all the former Yugoslav states, Greece, and Turkey), to Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya in the south, and back to the East across all of Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, and Thailand. The Chabahar facility will also be connected into Russia’s intelligence gathering stations in and around its core military bases in Syria – the naval facility in Tartus, and the Khmeimim Air Base near Latakia – which, in turn, would allow it to be easily be tied in to Russia’s Southern Joint Strategic Command 19th EW Brigade (Rassvet) near Rostov-on-Don, which links into the corollary Chinese systems.
