OPERATION COVID-19: The Power of Media Manipulation of the Minds of the Masses

A headline yesterday and today in one of the Online top ten media sources readers rely on, reads: “Hard to keep life operating.” The headline refers to another top new media source that quoted an “infectious disease expert” as saying that cases of Covid are going to rise so dramatically that it will be hard to keep everyday life operating. In another piece of propaganda I saw the other day, it stated that this country was on the brink of not being able to function…whatever exactly “function” means.

Really? Who is seeing this? I admit I don’t get out much but nobody I know and talk with have even hinted at the notion that we are barely able to “function.” The way the masses are pouring into my tiny little town to go skiing and generally recreating, I see absolutely no signs of life not being to operate. Are we experiencing the made-legal use of media to propagandize the masses to control them and manipulate their minds?

We should know from history that in 1914, in London, the Wellington House was founded. It’s purpose, at the commencement of World War I was to counter the media control over public opinion that the Germans, i.e. the Third Reich, had domination of. Writers from across the West were called in to, in short, wordsmith propaganda that could be used to counter the German propaganda machine and, essentially, lie to the rest of the world about what was actually taking place so that people would willingly support the war effort and do as they were told. (Go get that next jab.)

This is nothing new and is, by far, not the first and last time media/words have been used to brainwash the masses. For those who might be interested, a few years back I wrote a multi-part series about the Wellington House and the myriad of mind control organizations that have existed and still do today.

Most, in their ignorance and laziness, fail to have even the least bit of knowledge about the United States Government and their passage of the National Defense Authorization Act along with all subsequent renewals. Because few have even heard of the NDAA, even fewer know what’s in it.

One thing that is in it, is authority given to the U.S. Government to use media and any form or platform necessary to propagandize the citizens of this country…for the good of the nation – not unlike the Patriot Act where the people were asked to give up their liberties for a little false securit… and they willingly did. Few understand the power of media, especially in a country that has been groomed to rely on media, and these days specifically the Internet, for their information. And they find it all extremely believable.

This is extremely dangerous ground, and not unlike the boiling frog syndrome, few have a clue they are being lied to, cheated, convinced to do whatever the propagandizing government tells them they must do, i.e. line up and get vaccinated.

So, is this country and others around the world actually barely able to function in real life? Is this the end? Are you buying into all this propaganda without even pausing for a moment and looking around at what’s happening in front of you?

Truthfully enough, all of this stuff is supposed to happen according to the Word Of GOD. Who knew that GOD would put it in the minds of reprobates to make it happen and the delusional to carry it out.

Get off the Internet media and especially social media and find Truth in the only place there is TRUTH. The Word of GOD. It’s your only hope…only hope.

The Present American Revolution? Or the Ongoing American Revolution

“Almost everything we have seen in just the last three months — the Kavanaugh chaos, the “caravan,” the ongoing Mueller octopus, recounting election results until they are deemed “correct,” the Beto and Gillum neo-socialism craziness, the swarming of a Fox News anchor’s home, driving public officials out of restaurants, the media circus at presidential press conferences — are symptoms of revolutionary America. In this conflict, one side believes it is not only not fair but also not allowable that it lacks the necessary power to make us all equal — but equal only in the eyes of a self-anointed elite.”<<<Read More>>>

A dear friend, who is forever sending me information to read and I am grateful, sent me Victor Davis Hanson’s latest article “The Present American Revolution.” It is an intellectual perspective of the obvious, perhaps based upon his own observations rooted in the very cultural changes that have brought us to a point in which the author believes we are in the middle of a revolution. I might suggest that we have been in some fashion of a “revolution” since the beginning of time.

Of course, it’s the Left’s fault, this upheaval of the culturally good. It’s but one side of the equation and it is, in and of itself, all a part of any American Revolution active today. The actions of the Left are not prompted by original thoughts or actions. Isn’t it the actions of the Right that drive the revolutionary symptoms of the Left? Isn’t this paradigm a design by men to perpetuate a revolution? Doesn’t history show us that there has always been opposing sides, opposing thoughts, opposing idealisms, and thus revolution?

It seems the author thinks our Constitution is being destroyed by a Leftist agenda. That may be the obvious truth, to those promoting a Rightist agenda. However, isn’t or shouldn’t the bigger question be what or who gave us the Left and the Right and for what purpose other than revolution?

All of this, which I find fascinating on many levels, reminds me of a piece written by Richard Fernandez not that long ago about our “Foundational Libraries.” These so-called Foundational Libraries are what most influences and drives our culture of the moment in history. I shared this information with readers and provided my own perspective.

My thoughts are that Hanson’s work and Fernandez’s work are much one and the same. Isn’t what Hanson relates to readers the effects of the ever-changing Foundational Libraries?

Here’s what I wrote in regards to Wretchard’s work:

…“foundational libraries” are what gives us our identity while guiding and directing us. Is there little doubt about that? It seems a fair conclusion that these libraries are and have been forever changing. The question might become who is really responsible for the changing foundational libraries? Doesn’t such changes also give cause to even change the reference title of “foundational libraries” to “social controlling libraries” as with these changes so also does the actual foundation deteriorate until it is gone, replaced by controlling social demands as expressed in the article?

If any of this is true, then the question becomes who actually controls the Foundational Libraries?

The Global Power Structure is designed with seemingly unlimited numbers of organizations whose purpose is nothing more than to manipulate and control our minds by inundating us with mass media. Programmed to feed off this useless garbage, that at the same time is crafted to take away our ability or desire to think for ourselves, we essentially become the techno-zombies or automatons the Global Power Structure wants us to be – easily manipulated and controlled acting out the roles designed for us.

So, why are we now of the mindset that we are in the midst of a new or “Present American Revolution?”

…one on the Left blames the destruction of our culture on the Right. While the Left and Right are eagerly mired in the false paradigm of Left vs. Right, blinded by the fabricated hatred toward others of unlike idealisms, the real powers continue to pull all the strings that bring the Foundational Libraries to a point that best benefits them.

It would appear that the Global Power Structure finds benefit in a new American Revolution. We must look at what could be the results of a revolution.

One might think that a Foundational Library would offer some semblance of stability, a grounding in moral behavior and existence. It’s easy to blame the Progressives for the radical destruction of the foundation, but both “sides” are to blame. Because I tend to identify more closely with a conservative perspective, certainly the Left is radically pushing to upend all things that offer stability in conservative reasoning. It works both ways and that is why there is such animosity, anger, and hatred toward “the other side.” It is designed to be so. It is part of the destruction of our Foundational Libraries, to bring us into an existence void of common moral decency, separated from the love and life of our Creator God and his simple plan of salvation -further proof that Satan rules this world and we are being manipulated by his evil powers.

There are so many great writers capable of pointing out the obvious and at the same time participating in the propagation of this “Present American Revolution.” It would really be a great event if some of these people would actually share if they know or research to find out, what and who is behind such things as the manipulation of our Foundational Libraries and the Present American Revolution.

What’s the Matter with Rural America?

*Editor’s Note* – In the Wall Street Journal article linked to in Jim Beers piece, reference is made to the possibility that there are actually efforts underway by wealthy businessmen to open factories in traditionally “Red” states in order to deliberately change the demographics and political posturing within those states rendering them “Blue.” While this specific attempt at changing political control and power may be a new and/or different concept, the same end game has been tried often.

We all know about the blatant attempt by political hacks to change the boundaries of voting precincts in order to alter voting results. We also hear the whining about the Electoral College when one side loses an election even though they may have won the popular vote.

It appears that now, another round of “it ain’t fair” is cropping up that every state, regardless of population, gets two seats in the Senate. There are always cries to change the rules when they were not advantageous to cause a victory within the false paradigm of political decisionmaking.

When Barrack Obama was running for president, while nobody was interested in vetting the man and his many faces, I was able in my work to find a similar attempt he made at changing the Court system by stuffing articles in law school Law Reviews. It was believed this effort would influence judges, struggling to find court case precedence and forced to resort to published law review articles in rendering decisions.

It might be worth spending some time looking at all this stuff as another means of understanding the corrupt and rigged government system we are forced to be slaves to.

By James Beers:

The Left’s latest item on their growing list of things (the Supreme Court, ICE, Innocent until proven guilty, gun rights, white males, law enforcement, et al) to either eliminate or neuter is the US Senate per Mr. Willick’s shrewd description.

His historic citation of the middle 19th century encouraging modern opponents of the existence of the US Senate into moving to spots like North Dakota and other such sparsely-settled and so-called over-represented rural enclaves to make them vote as the Left dictates, while having a smidgeon of sense, should cause all Rural Americans to take both note and action.

One need looks no further than the current rural rapine effects of those two modern-day sacred Acts of the urban environmental religion; the Endangered Species Act and the Wilderness Act.  Note the grizzly bears attacking and killing humans and livestock; note the wolves decimating the big game and domestic dog populations; note the “catastrophic” fires that have become routine and destructive beyond belief where logging, grazing and resource management are no more; note the loss of jobs, local taxes, families and communities where residents no more control their surroundings than Poles under German or Soviet occupiers.

These outrages were all perpetrated by a federal government catering to urban fantasies constrained by only one thing, a US Senate where the state balance of 2 per state and special powers like ratifying appointees and Treaties occasionally provided a modest protection to Rural Americans.  Think of what it will be like when dissembled by the Left – and vote.

Civilization’s Foundational Libraries

I read Richard Fernandez’s article about a new book – The Fiery Angel by Michael Walsh – with intrigue. What stuck with me most, initially anyway, was the following:

“Walsh’s goal is to demonstrate that culture — religion, the arts, language itself — are the core libraries of civilization built in a stack one upon the other. His thesis is that culture stores and slowly modifies a civilization’s foundational libraries — its attitudes toward eternity, dominant narratives and ultimate ground for hope — which eventually underpin our entire world.”

Perhaps the remainder of the article is a bit pointless to read unless one has a good grasp of what is being said here. Presented as the book author’s thesis, our so-called “foundational libraries” are what gives us our identity while guiding and directing us. Is there little doubt about that? It seems a fair conclusion that these libraries are and have been forever changing. The question might become who is really responsible for the changing foundational libraries? Doesn’t such changes also give cause to even change the reference title of “foundational libraries” to “social controlling libraries” as with these changes so also does the actual foundation deteriorate until it is gone, replaced by controlling social demands as expressed in the article?

This is just another way of describing a condition that has existed since the beginning of time – manipulation of public opinion, i.e. brainwashing.

The Global Power Structure is designed with seemingly unlimited numbers of organizations whose purpose is nothing more than to manipulate and control our minds by inundating us with mass media. Programmed to feed off this useless garbage, that at the same time is crafted to take away our ability or desire to think for ourselves, we essentially become the techno-zombies or automatons the Global Power Structure wants us to be – easily manipulated and controlled acting out the roles designed for us.

The authors want to blame this rapid destruction of our Foundational Libraries on the Left. If one identifies themselves with the Right, this only makes sense. On the flip side, and I witness it constantly, one on the Left blames the destruction of our culture on the Right. While the Left and Right are eagerly mired in the false paradigm of Left vs. Right, blinded by the fabricated hatred toward others of unlike idealisms, the real powers continue to pull all the strings that bring the Foundational Libraries to a point that best benefits them.

One might think that a Foundational Library would offer some semblance of stability, a grounding in moral behavior and existence. It’s easy to blame the Progressives for the radical destruction of the foundation, but both “sides” are to blame. Because I tend to identify more closely with a conservative perspective, certainly the Left is radically pushing to upend all things that offer stability in conservative reasoning. It works both ways and that is why there is such animosity, anger, and hatred toward “the other side.” It is designed to be so. It is part of the destruction of our Foundational Libraries, to bring us into an existence void of common moral decency, separated from the love and life of our Creator God and his simple plan of salvation -further proof that Satan rules this world and we are being manipulated by his evil powers.

And thus, the Global Power Structure is headed by Satan himself.

Mouse Asks Cat To Find Out Who’s Baiting The Trap

A whistleblower says that scaring investors in the Stock Market is a planned event, manipulated by those inline to make a profit from it.

I don’t pretend to be a financial expert, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express once. According to this article, the whistleblower is trying to seek the help of what is part of the rigged system to fix the rigged system: “One of the most popular measures of volatility is being manipulated, charges one individual who submitted a letter anonymously to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.”

It is more than likely the Securities and Exchange Commission, et. al. already know about this because they helped invent it. Give me a break. This is part of the mental derangement that exists with people in this country, and I suppose worldwide.

Isn’t it insanity for a mouse to ask the cat to fix the bait in the trap that the cat already controls? This is what we seem to do best thinking it’s a cure. It’s a rigged system. You can fix a rigged system.

Wildlife Management: Scientism, Abstraction, Encapsulation, Interface

Today, I was reading Wretchard’s “The Case of the Missing Catastrophe,” over and over several times, as it contains some pretty heady stuff. As invigorating as the words may be, or perhaps mind-blowing, depending on one’s perspective and mental prowess, I believe it to be worthy of additional, relevant, thoughts, perhaps knocked down a peg or two into more understandable terms for common brains like mine.

What Fernandez is describing can be broken down into two distinct realities – deliberate manipulation and the exploits of useful idiots. Maybe I can make a bit more sense out of this.

Although Wretchard is discussing the predictions made by most media that we’re all gonna die because Donald Trump first became president and then endorsed recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and the GOP is planning a tax reduction. Because prophecied catastrophes have failed to meet the cries of the media, and others, Fernandez suggests that the “models” which drive the predictions of death and destruction at the hands of liberals are being found out to be failures of the biggest kind. Some, not many, can actually recognize these failed predictions, based on “modeling,” and it is growing tiresome. Others lay claim that this is the reason “outsiders,” like Trump, got elected and why most people barely lifted a match, club or rock in protest of the Jerusalem capital decision. I think it safe to say that modeling, designed for outcome-based results, plays a vital part in our everyday lives.

Hidden behind intellectual topics of centralization, globalization, “integration with nature and society,” and such things as evolution and “intertemporal coordination,” what is being discussed is ideology. Idealism always begins with an idea. Where once “models” were the ideas of man to manipulate society, in today’s power and control institutions that more closely resemble technocracies than democracies, employment of computers to sort over ideas and information, hiding what is not wanted and fronting that which fits a narrative, is commonplace. Are we to now understand that somehow a person is exempt from a dishonest promotion of idealism because the “computer modeling” made them do it?

The intentions of modelers remain the same. Because of our love affair with technology and how it has been sold to the public, mentally programs us to believe the computer modeling is a better result than simply the ideas of a man. Strange isn’t it? The stage is set.

Computer modeling is common practice these days. It also works as a major tool of destruction in the ripping apart of society and politics (they go hand in hand as has been designed). The dishonest practice has caused major failures in the scientific world, even though those failures are the means to justify social and political perversion, to achieve agendas. It is a contributor to the injection of anger and hatred into our society as well.

For several years I studied computers and programming. I know enough to be dangerous. I do know how programming works – called coding today. I know how to hide and manipulate data to achieve desired results. That was one of the most basic instruments to learn in programming. Coding today requires knowledge of what end result one desires and writing a program to accomplish that. Imagine when this is placed in the hands of corrupt individuals, groups, corporations, 501 C3 Non Profits, etc. with something other than completely honest dissemination in mind.

I have often said that we live in a Post-Normal world today – up is down, right is left, right is wrong, black is white, etc. With enough money, anyone can pay a computer-literate technician to model anything. It has worked so well government agencies, along with our court system, eagerly rely on faulty and dishonest computer modeling in rendering decisions and crafting legislation.

In the case referenced in the linked-to article, the masses rely so heavily on a heavily manipulated Media, they are unaware that they are being propagandized by only those things they want you to know.

This same process is at play pertaining t0 wildlife management at every level in this country.

In the article referenced, I was taken by and it was pointed out to me, a quote that came from someone commenting on how computer programmers/modelers dealt with complex issues. “Encapsulation enables programmers to avoid conflicts … the code of each object still manipulates data, but the data it manipulates is now private to that object. … This discipline enables programmers to create systems in which a massive number of plans can make use of a massive number of resources without needing to resolve a massive number of conflicting assumptions. Each object is responsible for performing a specialized job; the data required to perform the job is encapsulated within the object

“Abstraction provides stable points of connection while accommodating a wide-range of change on either side of the abstraction boundary. … The abstract purpose is represented by an interface … multiple concrete providers can implement the same abstract service in different concrete ways.”

This is a pretty fancy way of stating that programmers can and are conning the rest of the world with their false manipulation of twisted and perverted data to achieve whatever they or anybody wants.

I have serious doubts that complexity is the issue when it comes to computer modeling. When the modeling is driven by corruption, for corrupt purposes, complexity is irrelevant only to the extent of the desired outcome and perhaps the need to present some kind of distraction or coverup by creating a fake controversy.

In computer modeling – bearing in mind that wildlife management today relies heavily on modeling whether they do it themselves or utilize someone else’s work – it is pointed out above that programmers deal with issues such as “encapsulation,” “abstraction,” and “interface,” to name a few. Combine these headings with corruption and we have new-science Scientism, i.e. “excessive belief in the power of scientific knowledge [real of false] and techniques [for corrupt reasons].”

First, a “programmer” (I placed programmer in quotes because that group or individual could vary from one lone programmer to accomplices of varying numbers.) collects data (what begins as useless information until placed in the desired order) and enters it into the computer. Then, someone must decide what data is useful, for what purposes it is useful and how to “encapsulate” that information, i.e. hiding information or using it to drive the outcome.

Encapsulating data is necessary for achieving desired results while hiding information that may cause conflicts or controversy. Politicians are masters at encapsulating information. That’s why they never answer the questions asked them. They hide what they don’t want you to know and sell you on what they do.

In today’s computer modeling, “abstraction” may be the single biggest mode of corruption, especially depending upon the chosen “interface.”

Abstraction, “the quality of dealing with ideas rather than events,” is where the real scientific process gets deliberately lost. Abstraction is necessary to promote ideas (idealism/environmentalism) rather than actual and honest scientific data. Several ideas/events can be contained within “boundaries,” including hidden data, and meted out through “interfaces” to only those listed (concrete providers) as in need (who are paying the money) of the results.

There is a common, tire-kicker expression used to describe the worthless computer-generated outcomes – “garbage in and garbage out.” In many of these cases that is precisely what is taking place. To some of us, the outcome is garbage because the input is garbage. It spells lots of dollars and cents to those dishonest people manipulating the truth. They are gaming the system for political or monetary gain.

Early on I said there were two distinct realities we are dealing with here; deliberate manipulation and the exploits of useful idiots. I would suppose that there is some overlap at varying degrees.

We must first understand that modeling and the effects of this method do not happen only inside a computer. Know that the “modeling” began in someone’s brain. It’s a process and yes, it can be a deceitful one as well. While the computer models yield results, often sought after results, the mind process is taught and carried down through many avenues of brainwashing and propagandizing. In short, we become programmed to think and operate as a computer modeling program in order to reach the desired end.

I have attended seminars in which the goal of the administrators is to manipulate attendees into becoming “change agents.” In other words, they want to brainwash (I know people don’t like that expression, however…) you to accept their propaganda (false modeling) and then go back to where you came from and change everyone’s thoughts to be like theirs. This is all a part of the “modeling” enterprise ruling our world.

Computer modeling is not always bad when used within the context of how it is achieved. It is almost never done that way and that is why my focus seems to be on the criminal aspect of deliberate and dishonest manipulation of the truth. The deliberate manipulators are those whose bent it is to deceive for monetary or political gain. We see computer modeling with such open-to-the-public exchanges involving climate change and wildlife management. Applying the methods I’ve described above, it is easy to see that dishonest encapsulation, abstraction, and interfacing can reap huge monetary windfalls as well as political gain and control.

Dishonest environmental and animal rights groups and there are thousands of them, pay lots of money to get computer models to promote their agendas. With an ignorant populace, who themselves rely upon computer modeled propaganda from multiple media sources, are quick to accept a model presented as a scientific finding. It is a part of our rigged system.

A book could be written citing all the cases where modeling is used as scientific fact for all the wrong reasons. The act is criminal, carried out by criminals.

And so, with those powerful enough to control the way wildlife management is discussed employing modeling as the foundation, is it any wonder that our fish and wildlife employees are nothing more than propagandized automatons, spoon-fed computer modeling as useful scientific data? These become the “useful idiots” who empower those corrupt purveyors of dishonest modeling as science.

When you combine the actual computer modeling with the “education” of the mental version of modeling, together, as change agents, we march into a dishonest world fraught with false knowledge and deception. Many within our fish and wildlife agencies across this land have been reared on modeling and taught the process resulting in a way of thinking that accomplishes the same thing.

Can this be reversed?

Scientific Consensus is Fraud

Recently I shared with readers an article I found called, “Big Science is Broken.” As sometimes Media does, perhaps more articles are being written about the flaws of scientific “study” and “peer review,” sold to the public as “settled science” or “consensus science.” Both of those elements are dangerously fraudulent.

Today, “How ‘Settled Science’ Helped Create a Massive Public Health Crisis,” tells us that consensus in fraudulent, politically manipulated, people control, masquerading as science, can literally kill us.

The article states: “Leslie correctly points out that, despite the patina of pure objectivity, “scientific inquiry is prone to the eternal rules of human social life: deference to the charismatic, herding toward majority opinion, punishment for deviance, and intense discomfort with admitting to error.”

While that statement may be true, it is more of the gas for the vehicle intended to get the human population from Point A, a healthy lifestyle, to Point B, death.

We should cease with dancing around excuses as to why fraudulent science is killing us. Not everyone is that stupid, but unfortunately because, as the article states, social life, deference to the charismatic, herding, punishment, etc., are the known factors bred into human character that allows the Ruling Establishment, whose bent is massive elimination of millions of people, to carry out their plans.

When the Media focuses on issues that only scratch the surface, nothing is ever accomplished, except what most of us refuse to understand – that Media’s role in this is the perpetuation of the social life, deference to the charismatic, herding (brainwashing/propagandizing), and implementing punishments for non conformance. Anyone paying attention should realize that it has only been a matter of time that “science” tells us one thing, and “science” tells us they were wrong. We want to believe, and do believe, that the “correction” has delivered the truth, and yet it never is the truth…only more lies. It’s commonly referred to as insanity and we are too insane to recognize it.

The once-known “scientific method” exists, somewhere, but is rarely seen anymore. It has been replaced, by design, with everything, and more, that is described in the two linked-to articles above. Lost in all of it, is the truth that the lost method is being perpetrated on us by design and the bigger goal isn’t a healthier lifestyle. It is death by self-inflicted adherence to what some brainwashed quack is telling us to do.

Isaiah 53:6 – All we like sheep have gone astray: we have turned every one to his own way, and the Lord hath laid upon him the iniquity of us all.

The Hocus-Pocus of Estimating Deer Harvest….or Something

I recall at a very young age learning the true meaning of the word “assume.” For those not fortunate to have had such a high degree of education, let me help you out – ASSUME = ASS(out of)U(and)ME. Yup! That’s what often happens.

I was reading an article just a few minutes ago by someone trying to explain why the methods of guessing deer numbers and harvest were “good enough.” Here’s what I giggled at in the article: “Say we flip a coin ten times. We know that the chances of getting heads is 50%, but just ten flips may not show that. The more sets of ten coin flips we do, the closer we get to the 50% – to a point. But there also reaches a point where it doesn’t matter if we flip the coin 1,000 times or a million, either way, we will be very close to 50%. The same logic comes to the amount of data on deer harvest we need to collect to accurately illustrate the statewide harvest numbers. Knowing that point, is where the complexities of statistics come in, but be rest assured that they are reliable.”

Perhaps it is “good enough” to flip coins and make assumptions, while disregarding other influencing circumstances, when guessing on deer populations as well as how many deer were harvested. Those who buy into the “good enough” scheme also buy into the idea described above that there’s always a 50-50 chance when flipping a penny a few million times. Actually, it might be more accurate to say the odds are 51-49, but even that estimate can be flawed. What mint of penny is being used? Is it the same penny all the time? Is the coin dirty? Etc.

Science is science – is it not? Yeah, I know. Not for everybody. It’s more exciting to just “assume,” as the article says that regardless of how many times you flip a coin, half the time it’s heads, the other half, tails. This is, of course “assuming” it’s always the same coin, always clean, with no irregularities, flipped by a calibrated machine, the same number of flips, in a vacuum, blah, blah, blah.

Odds are odd. Do we “assume” that with the millions of deer in this country that half the new-born fawns will be male and half female? Yup! (Unless you are one of those that believes there are no bucks left) But scientists tell us that it’s closer to 51-49. It matters not which sex wins….or does it. What causes the skew? Is it man’s influence? Is it 100% natural? If that’s an average, what are the extremes in those birth rates and what causes them? A lot of questions, I know, but, but, but….

When a scientist begins his work to seek an outcome, isn’t the work already flawed once the scientist “assumes” the odds are 50-50? Throughout a scientific progression, the more times “assumptions” are made, it probably is accurate to “assume” there are more errors rendering the results less accurate. The first assumption might be “good enough,” but for whom?

So, does any of this matter when it comes to managing and establishing deer management programs? Mostly likely not. Does it matter if this same “assuming” approach is used in areas where there are but 10,000 estimated deer versus those with 500,000 or more? Do managers continue, for years and years, to make the same “assumptions?” If changes are made to the methods, is it “assumed” that it will not effect the outcome?

Has anyone spent the time to determine what the “odds” are in making “assumptions”, that those “assumptions” are skewing reality in any one direction more than another? If there are “assumed” outcomes in two directions, is it “assumed” that half the time it’s one way and half the time the other? I assume you have had just about enough of this gibberish.

Seems silly doesn’t it? One of the problems with this method of making assumptions, is that it really is the beginning stages of outcome-based political manipulation disguised as science – I mean, honestly, isn’t it? That 50-50 odds for coin flipping is perfect for politics, but is worthless when dealing in scientific terms.

There are certain things deer biologists can do that will improve the results of their guessing. And that’s good enough…evidently. However, one of those things should be a scientific-based survey to right the ship and get it reconnoitered and back on course. That works better than relying, always, on a coin flip. After all, it takes a person to flip the coin and somehow I have little faith in the direction of the wind or the Flim-Flam Man.

The world can’t afford another financial crash – it could destroy capitalism as we know it

But no developed nation today could possibly tolerate another wholesale banking crisis and proper, blood and guts recession.

We are too fragile, fiscally as well as psychologically. Our economies, cultures and polities are still paying a heavy price for the Great Recession; another collapse, especially were it to be accompanied by a fresh banking bailout by the taxpayer, would trigger a cataclysmic, uncontrollable backlash.

The US Military Is Decimating Everything In Its Path, Including Its Own Country

The military industrial complex has been completely out of control for so long that the consequences to life on Earth may soon be total. The US military leadership has virtually no regard for anything or anyone including its own soldiers. In the military’s endless and insatiable quest to expand and control the entire planet and everyone on it, all is expendable. This includes the environment (even in its own country),  and the citizens of the United States which it claims to defend. Though climate engineering is the epitome of the military’s assault against its own citizens and the biosphere, there are countless other examples which all have dire consequences. Finally, the population is beginning to wake up to the ongoing insanity.
