Late Stage Taxation

Lately, I’ve been thinking more and more about Mike Judge, and how it seems as though he was trying to warn us.

You’ve probably heard of the nineties film, Idiocracy. To summarize: a man was deemed to be completely average. Most relevant to the plot, he had average intelligence. He was then cryogenically suspended for 500 years.

At the time he was released, every other person on earth was so stupid that he was easily the world’s smartest man. It was to the point that people thought that the right way to hydrate the ground for agriculture was with sports drinks, resulting in a famine because they were salting the ground.

The popular notion about natural selection is that it’s survival of the fittest. But that’s actually not true. In reality, it’s survival of the most adapted. And this is still relevant for humans, because a major shift in society brings with it a shift in selection pressures.

Society is in trouble today, for a reason similar to how people ended up stupid in Idiocracy. In current society, selection pressures favor the stupid.

Consider how intelligent people start a family. First, they prepare. They build a career by seeking an education, putting together a resume, then cultivating years of professional experience. They build credit, and look for a home and a car, and in many other ways prepare themselves. It takes years, but they eventually consider themselves viable for the dating market, into which they start to dip their toes. A problem with this approach is that it pisses away some of the most fertile years of one’s life, so by the time they consider themselves ready, they’re probably only going to have a few children, assuming they succeed in finding someone.

Stupid people don’t worry about any of that stuff. They have sex because there’s pleasure involved, then deal with the consequences, ready or not.

As you read through all this, you’re probably wondering what this has to do with the title. How does this relate to late stage taxation?

One thing I learned about people and myself from video games is that people act based on incentive, even if the playstyle results in an experience that’s different from what the game developers intended.

Someone playing Pokémon Gold might want a shiny legendary Pokémon. They might save in front of the Pokémon and soft reset until it appears as a shiny, then go to the frustrating task of trying to catch it, assuming they wouldn’t just huck a valuable Master Ball at it.

They could go to that trouble. Or they could catch an ordinary version of that legendary, arrange a box in a certain way, then use arbitrary code execution to make it shiny, possibly saving many hours.

The incentive is to try to obtain what’s desirable in little time, even if it means that the game is being played differently from how the developers intended.

This holds true in life, as well. When you account for incentives, people become a lot more predictable.

The political class is one example. If an incentive exists for them to pursue a certain policy, they can be counted on to pursue that policy. They might do this even if the result is a society with undesirable selection pressures, especially if they can avoid the brunt of those consequences.

For a politician, the incentive lies with whatever gets them more votes. This is easy to accomplish with entitlement programs. For one thing, the people who act on incentive to accept these programs are also incentivized to vote for the politician who enabled them.

What’s more, it’s a snap for that politician to maintain good optics with such a show of altruism. Of course, it’s not true altruism because it’s being funded through the coercion that is taxation, taking from those who actually produced value. However, there are multiple layers of abstraction separating the coercion from the false altruism, allowing everyone involved to maintain plausible deniability.

This is all pretty bad. But it gets worse. There are three parties with an incentive to increase entitlement programs further, as well as the number of people on the government dole:

  • Politicians, because they recognize that if people have an incentive to vote for them (free stuff), they’ll do so, cementing more power around those politicians,
  • The bureaucratic state, because as more people are getting free stuff, there will be more money to scrape away to pay those who manage it, and
  • Ordinary people, because they’d be getting more and more free stuff, without having to pay for it.

In fact, someone is paying for it: the productive class. Their incentive is to resist this massive theft. But as the political class have more and more people legally bribed, the productive class can do less and less about it.

And as the incentive to join the productive class dwindles, fewer people will want to join it. But as this happens, less is produced. Thus, there is less value to extract from the few left who are actually producing it.

As working Americans’ paychecks are being taxed into a black hole, they’re being convinced that they didn’t start a family when they wanted to due to a failure on their part.

All this is a recipe for a collapse of a society, which is the expected outcome as this continues.

As the birth rates of native populations collapses, politicians don’t take accountability for their contributions to the problem. That is not where their incentives lie. Rather, their incentive is to further expand their political power by replacing the native population with a migrant population, whose loyalty can be bought with value extracted from the already distressed native population.

Thus, the productive class who are already heavily taxed have a far more backbreaking burden placed upon them.

We already have a publicized example of what can happen when such corruption reaches an advanced state: the recently publicized Minnesota Somali entitlement scams. As was famously exposed by a citizen journalist, entire buildings had numerous empty daycare and Medicare offices, which weren’t doing much of anything, and all refused to assist the journalist in their respective alleged professional capacities. All while still accepting millions of dollars in funding taken from taxpayers.

One of which, famously, misspelled the word “Learning” on its sign.

This brought national attention to how funds are being misallocated in Minnesota. Minnesota governor Tim Walz dropped out of the race for reelection shortly afterwards, which wasn’t great optics for him.

To think that guy could have been the Vice President of the United States.

While the whole matter got widespread attention on social media, and action has been taken concerning this massive fraud, we’d be dreaming if we thought that something similar wasn’t happening all over the country, and not necessarily involving the same ethnic group.

In fact, this can be stated with almost complete confidence. Why? Because the leftist establishment involved with the Somali daycare fraud were acting on incentive, and the incentives to try something similar exists elsewhere, too. And when it comes to incentive, people are predictable.

I’ve mentioned intelligence and Somalis in the same article, I suppose I can give my opinion of Somali intelligence, seeing as it’s topical. Personally, I don’t see it as being as relevant as people make it out to be. After all, fraud is fraud, regardless of the intelligence of the person who commits it.

When I heard it said that the average IQ of a Somalian is 67, I was skeptical. After all, this is over two standard deviations below the mean, and well below the point where a person is too low to be allowed in the US armed forces. This is because it’s prohibitively difficult to train such a person to the point that they can carry out their duties autonomously.

Just imagine the implications for such a person if they were to attempt to enter the workforce. What is society supposed to do with such a person? It seems much of us have decided to grant them the means to live in relative comfort.

Even if one were to accept that intelligence has a genetic component, which seems to be the case, that there would be an entire country of people where most are low IQ to the point of being handicapped is a stretch to accept.

But it seems as though, whatever the intelligence of Somalis happens to be, this intelligence isn’t what was considered when the administrative state decided to use them as a pretext for extracting more wealth from productive Americans, or when Democrats decided to attempt to exploit them for votes, building power for themselves. But those same Somalis are predictable if they decided to move somewhere where they’d be given plenty of money, even if they accomplished nothing.

To be honest, I care less about the stupidity of Somalis than I do about the stupidity of Americans. And considering that there are Americans who are not only okay with the fraud, but are committing the felony of obstructing federal officers because they want it to continue, I imagine that our ancestors in their mud huts would wonder where things went wrong.

But tell them how selection pressures in late stage taxation favors the stupid, they’d probably wonder why anyone would allow matters to get to this point.

Is this game for real?

As an American, I’m so glad that we won our independence from the Brits. Not that I have anything against them today, but they’ve got a serious problem.

The British are in late-stage taxation. I’ll explain what I mean by that later in the article.

Before we celebrate too hard, we should know that we have a similar problem, even if we’re taking the first small steps towards doing something about it.

The British government has funded a pro-immigration video game, developed by Shout Out UK. But just because they made a video game doesn’t mean that they know how.

The game is called Pathways, and it’s a choose-your-own adventure. Already off to a bad start, because the whole reason we like video games is because they are interactive. Pathways is basically one of those turn-to-page-56 books, except on a glowing display screen, and somehow more on-the-rails.

Pathways stars a protagonist named Charlie, and players decide whether Charlie is a boy or a girl. This choice is ignored for the rest of the game as Charlie is referred to with they/them pronouns, which probably works as a metaphor for the kind of sterility that has become too common in modernity.

The game is pretty much a few short scenarios where the player makes choices for Charlie based on the information presented. Some choices are considered right, while the other choices result in brief scolding by the game, or somesuch. Whatever the choice, the game continues just the same.

In one scenario, Charlie is presented with information, and one of the selections is for Charlie to do his own research. The game considers this to be a wrong choice. Remember, this game was made by people who don’t trust you to think for yourself. They want you to dismiss anything that might challenge the official narrative out-of-hand, like an obedient little automaton.

Okay then, let’s get into everyone’s favorite character in this game. One scenario introduces Charlie to an anti-immigration activist named Amelia. She’s a cute goth e-girl who is pleasant to Charlie throughout their interactions. One choice the player can make for Charlie has him meeting up with her at a rally.

Because this game was made by globalist twits, it seems that the thinking is that “boy meets cute girl and then they go somewhere together, presumably getting in a snog sesh” would be a less preferable outcome. The game has designated the choice to meet up with her as a “wrong” choice.

If you expected the internet to embrace Amelia and make lots of fan art of her, then you know the internet. Because that’s exactly what happened.

Have Shout Out UK even played Super Mario Brothers? It’s a game where an everyman tradesman whose name is Italian for “manly” defeats a magical turtle dragon and rescues a high-status woman who appreciates his efforts. That’s a male fantasy, and gamers embraced it.

For a protagonist to fight back against an invasion and an oppressive government, and win a cute girl while doing it, would make an awesome video game, and I’d buy it for days. Especially if you get to blow stuff up.

Okay, late-stage taxation. I said I’d explain it. Basically, the government has discovered that it can actually make plenty of money just by having more government programs to justify increasing taxes to fund them. And the fastest way to do that is by putting more people on the government dole.

Some amount of tax money goes to people who don’t produce value, and a huge chunk of it is scraped away by those who perform the administrative task of allocating it. As more people join this non-productive class of worthless eaters, more money enters the stream, which means more money for administrative clerks.

As the process continues, more and more value is extracted from the people who produce it.

Speeding up this process is unchecked mass migration, which is a dream come true for worthless government bureaucrats, as it means a pretext for extracting yet more value from the productive. And when these migrants get the opportunity to vote, they are expected to vote in line with their incentives, which is for the extraction of value which favors them to continue. Because the political establishment that favors this benefits from it, there’s no expectation that they’ll put a stop to it. And as their political power increases, the likelihood that anyone could overcome them dwindles.

It’s as though the brain that is the UK government has a protein that folded in on itself. As the condition progresses, their brain stops working properly, and the expectation is that they’ll soon die.

But, it gets worse. Most of the migrants are Islamic. They are famous for discouraging the pursuit of anything outside their own religion, and multiplying out of control.

Knowing all this, it’s easy to see that Brits who oppose mass migration are actually fighting to save the UK.

The establishment prions of the UK have made a video game in a sad effort to trick kids into keeping their value-extraction scam alive. And we know why they’re going this far. They’re scared. Younger people are figuring out what’s going on, and they are fighting for their own future.

The kids are turning more to the right. Establishment leftists are scared to death that they’ll have to let go of the power that they’ve held for so long, and that they might be held accountable once the boomers have aged out of voting.

The UK government funded an anti-extremist video game, and ended up with a white supremacist dating sim. What a time to be alive!

Iran is boogalooing.

Now, why isn’t old media covering this? I thought that they liked uprisings! I thought that they liked revolutions! For a long time, I was thinking that protesters doing stuff was what they were into! Why aren’t they interested, this time?

Things started popping off in Iran late in December. It’s been escalating since, and at this point, it seems as though the uprising is almost certain to be successful.

If your source of information is the Beavis and Butthead box, then you’re probably only just now hearing about this. And you were probably told that the motivation for the uprising is economic in nature. The people in old media are still in character. In their thinking, there’s nothing worse than not being rich. Of course that’s the sensibility that they’re going to project onto the people of Iran.

In reality, that’s only part of the motivation. In late December, months after the IRGC (Iran’s Islamist regime) failed war against Israel in which Israel dominated Iran’s air space, and months after their nuclear ambitions were destroyed by the US, Iran’s currency collapsed. It was so bad that if you had one American dollar, then you were a millionaire in Iran’s currency. Naturally, the merchants went out to protest.

But then, something interesting happened. Or, more like, something didn’t happen. The IRCG broke character. They didn’t immediately respond with a brutal crackdown. So, the protests continued the next day. And so on for days afterwards, except the protests got bigger. And still no answer from the IRGC.

As this was going on, the IRGC publicly declared their intention to war against Israel. Yeah, the same Israel that they couldn’t beat before. Except this time, while totally unable to keep a growing uprising under control.

As it so happens, the Iranian people had more problems with the IRCG than just that the currency collapsed. They wanted the Ayatollah gone. And they were sick of Islam. So much so that they started burning Mosques.

And now I think I have a guess as to why legacy news outlets don’t want to report on this. Being co-opted by leftism, they’ve staked their pride on Islam being a wonderful religion that no one could possibly refuse. Leftism has stupidly decided on Islam as what they’d prop up to maintain a veneer of tolerance, and now, every time that Islam acts like Islam, they have to do damage control. But now, after decades of experience with the Ayatollahs, Iranians have decided that they’ve had enough.

One thing to know about the Iranians is that they’ve been controlled by relatively few fanatics for decades. The Iranians are among the world’s most intelligent people, and Islamic fundamentalism is well outside the character of the typical Iranian. Even in recent years, Iranians have been shedding themselves of Islam. Just in the last couple decades, the number of Mosques in Iran has been reduced by about half. Currently, Christianity is the fastest growing religion in Iran, and it could be the country’s dominant religion by 2050.

It can also be pointed out that Iranians want the return of their king. The name of their crown prince, Pahlavi, was actually illegal to even mention under the Ayatollahs. The punishment for doing so was death.

Also, leading up to the riots, Iran has been running out of water. It was to the point that the capital had just about no water. I’m not sure how this issue will be handled after the IRGC is overthrown.

At this point, the protests are a nightly occurrence, and have engulfed every major Iranian city, including the capital, Tehran. It would seem as though the IRGC has completely lost control.

But that doesn’t mean that they aren’t trying. As of this writing, the internet in Iran is shut down, including for the IRGC. All that’s left is Elon Musk’s Starlink, which is in the hands of relatively few Iranians, and a limited intranet that’s mainly only used by the IRGC.

What’s more, the IRGC’s armed forces have begun opening fire on the protesters. This doesn’t seem to deter the protesters, who still have been showing up in massive numbers. There doesn’t seem to be any reliable counts for death toll, but I’ve heard numbers ranging from dozens to over a thousand.

IRGC leadership has announced their intention to execute anyone who has protested against them. Which is remarkably stupid. For one thing, because that’s an immense number of people. The logistics behind detaining huge percentages of the populations of entire cities would seem well beyond the means of a regime whose currency has just collapsed. But also because, in saying as much, they’ve given everyone who has protested so far another reason to dig their heels in.

Forgiveness isn’t just something that sounds nice, it gives someone an incentive to possibly come around to your own side. If someone were to tell me that I’d be their enemy forever, and nothing would change that, then what reason would I have to attempt to reconcile myself to them?

But it doesn’t seem like the IRGC will be able to carry out their threat against their own people. Not only are the protests so huge and so widespread that it seems nearly impossible for the regime to overcome them, the leadership, including the Ayatollah himself, is in hiding.

If the Ayatollah knows that his time is almost up, it might be that his heart is set on trying to cause as much damage as he can on the way out. Thus, his announced intention of going to war against Israel and the United States. It might be his intention to fire off one last volley of missiles before things end for him.

Here in the USA, we have a saying: Don’t let your mouth write checks that your ass can’t cash.

But, war or no war, it seems as though it’s over for the IRGC. The Ayatollah has already publicly announced his intention of leaving Iran, which doesn’t suggest that he has much under control. And as time goes on, he seems to be running out of opportunity to leave. It might even be that there’s currently no safe way for him to leave the country.

I think we’re seeing history being made. Not only are a people unshackling themselves of a despot, it’s an Islamic despot. Islam has some of the strictest mechanisms of control which have ever been developed. Since Islam’s inception in Muhammad’s diseased mind, there might not have been any nations which have succeeded in unshackling themselves of Islam without external intervention.

Which is why it would be awesome to see the Iranians pull it off without another country getting involved. Sure, I’d like to see the US get involved if that was necessary to guarantee the uprising’s success, and to prevent more bloodshed than necessary. If the Iranians accomplished it on their own, then the hope that many around the world could have in casting off the shackles of ancient Bedouin mysticism would be tremendous. But so would the knowledge that a strong ally might have your back. So, in either case, there’s something great to come away with.

If you’re interested in following developments with the Iranian uprising, you might like Tousi TV. He’s an Iranian living in the UK who wants to see the IRGC fall, and has been livestreaming with updates. He’s got his bias on the matter, but he’s honest about it.

What a decade it’s been so far this year!

Another gullible person just died.

Another FAFO happened. People are banging pots and pans together, giving those of us who like making fun of how ridiculous people can be plenty of material to work with.

What went down is that a woman was killed in Minnesota while resisting ICE officers. Her final mistake was accelerating towards an officer in her vehicle, ignoring repeated instruction to leave the vehicle. Recognizing this act of aggression as an attack with a 2-ton weapon, which was exactly what it was, the officer that was struck made it so that she’d never make another mistake.

And now, here we are, with millions of people who hate America and advocate for the rape of America telling you not to believe your lying eyes, because we have video of the incident from multiple different angles.

I’ll say first that nothing about this incident should really change your opinion of illegal immigration, whether you’re for it or against it. This incident pretty much came down to someone escalating matters beyond her ability to manage, then leaving the rest of us with a lesson to learn. A lesson that she herself doesn’t benefit from, because now she’s gone.

It’s wise to learn from your mistakes. It’s better to learn from other people’s mistakes.

The attacker was identified as 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. As is often the case when it comes to infamous criminals, her name is forfeit, and I get to give her a new one. Her new name is Renee Bad. She’s not around to enjoy it, so whether she would is irrelevant.

The 2:00 PM video from the post below is likely the one that you saw first, especially if you’re one of the few who are still informed by television.

The part that’s hyper-analyzed would be the 9 to 12 second portion, which shows that a federal agent was in front of the vehicle when Renee Bad shifted from reverse to forward (as indicated by the lights on her car changing), and she accelerated forward as the federal agent was still in front of her vehicle. The agent responded to this aggression by firing his pistol at the attacker.

Renee wasn’t using her head before, and now she definitely isn’t.

As we have seen in the last few days, leftists saw the video above, and saw something entirely different. In their thinking, the ICE agent was the clear aggressor, senselessly firing on a woman who was doing nothing wrong. Though we have the clear, plain video evidence, leftists still insist on their own manufactured reality, making this another case study in leftism being a carefully constructed denial of reality, a cult wherein each of the adherents prove their devotion to the ideology with how starkly they can deny the clear, plain evidence.

Again, nothing about this incident should have any bearing on policy regarding illegal immigration, other than in regards to the safety of agents carrying out their duties in an environment where they can be interfered with by violent cretins seeking social media headpats. The real problem is that protestors are becoming increasingly violent and then proceeding to play victim when facing the consequences for their own unwise behavior. Much of their behavior can likely be explained by them acting out encouraged by inflammatory rhetoric from social media influencers and those in the protestors’ online social circles. A stunted capacity for understanding right from wrong would easily explain the rest.

Much of online activism on the left comes down to trying to get other people to do things.

If you’re among the many who liked to lie to yourself about the video above, then the video below made it far more difficult for you to deceive yourself. It’s cell phone video from the ICE agent who was struck by the vehicle.

Prior to her decision to attack the ICE agent, Renee Bad was ordered to leave the vehicle by the officers a total of three times. At that point, it was already a non-compliance issue. Renee should not have been in her vehicle at the point that she decided to attack.

The video, taken from the perspective of the officer who was attacked, shows that he was in front of the vehicle at the point that Renee decided to accelerate. What’s more, you can hear a loud “thud” at the moment the vehicle collided with the agent.

There’s simply no room for denial.

But what I’d like to call attention to is the expression on Renee’s face right before she decided to accelerate towards the officer. The following image was taken from about 39 seconds into the video:

She’s looking right at the officer she was about to attempt to run down. And she had a big smile. She knew what she was about to do.

People have spoken of Renee Bad’s death as a tragedy. As I see it, the real tragedy occurred well before she decided that she’d be an activist instead of a mother that day. Over the course of an unknown amount of time, Renee was subjected to algorithmic manipulation and psychological operation which were so extensive, so corrosive and destructive, that it was able to override her better judgement. So effective was the emotionally loaded language, the one-sided arguments, and the deception that she was presented with, that she became a willing soldier for a people who weren’t her own, ready to literally fight in a war to continue a fraud that stole billions from people who actually were her own.

All this despite there being no benefit to her in persevering, whatsoever.

Some deaths are a tragedy. But sometimes, the world really is better off without certain people. And Renee was clearly one of those people. After all, what exactly was society supposed to do with someone who decided that, instead of caring for her family on a given day, she’d instead obstruct federal officers with a big smile, with apparently nothing to gain in so doing? And what kind of a future can a person be expected to have if they would decide that, instead of complying with law enforcement, she’d instead decide to attempt vehicular assault against them?

Could Renee have been redeemed? I don’t know. But if a person attacks a person who’s armed, especially if it’s law enforcement, with potentially lethal force, I doubt that redemption would be on that person’s mind.

I think it’s reasonable to guess that if she had survived that encounter, her life would have ended due to the consequences of a different unwise choice that she’d have made. With some people, it’s just a matter of time.

Speculation aside, Renee Bad is gone, now. The world has become slightly less stupid.

We should be angry right now.

Islam has a new most embarrassing story.

If you love criticizing Islam to a pulp, Muhammad is the gift that just keeps right on giving. And today, we’re examining yet another story that Muslims are going to wish just wasn’t written into their official materials, so they wouldn’t have to do quite so much damage control for their false prophet.

If the name Muhammad rings a bell, you might remember him from such stories as the time he accepted the Quraysh bargain, selling out his own monotheistic god by attributing three daughters to him, then when he realized the blunder he made, he claimed that Satan made him say it, not knowing the optics of a prophet being made to say Satan’s words, or the time when he poopered a nine-year-old while he was in his fifties.

That Muhammad.

But before we get into today’s story, let’s first frame it with how Islam handles homosexuality. Relevance? Don’t worry, we’ll get to that.

“And Lot! (Remember) when he said unto his folk: Will ye commit abomination such as no creature ever did before you? Lo! ye come with lust unto men instead of women. Nay, but ye are wanton folk.”

-Quran 7:80-81

“WHEN A MAN MOUNTS ANOTHER MAN, THE THRONE OF ALLAH SHAKES”

-Hadith

“Do you approach the males of humanity, leaving the wives Allah has created for you? But you are a people who transgress”
-Quran 26:165-66

There are various Hadith which states, in addition to these things, that if males commit sodomy, they are to be put to death, both the one who commits the act and the one who passively allowed it to be committed upon him.

Nearly every single Islamic scholar has stated, in no uncertain terms, that homosexual acts are unIslamic, and affirm the penalty of death for those who commit them.

Now, with that framing out of the way, let’s move on to Islam’s new most embarrassing story, the encounter with the men of Al-Zutt.

The following is the full account. I’ll offer a synopsis afterwards.

Ibn Mas’ūd narrated :

The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) performed ‘Ishā, then he turned and asked for me. He took my hand and we set out until I came to the wide valley of Makkah. He drew a line for me and said to me: ‘Stay within this line, and do not cross it, for indeed there shall come some men to you, but do not speak to them for they shall not speak to you, and if you cross (the line), you will perish. ‘ So I stayed within it. So the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) went on a little, as far as one could throw a stone or a little further.

While I was sitting within the line, some men/shapes of figures [i.e. jinn] came to me that appeared as if they were black people (i.e. dark people, like from North Africa or India), both their hair and bodies. They were not wearing any clothes but I could not see their private parts, and they were tall and they had little flesh (i.e. slim).

Then they returned towards Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ) and began towering on top of the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ). The Prophet of Allāh (ﷺ) began to recite the Qur’ān to them. And they started coming to me and surrounding me, and getting in my way. I was extremely scared of them, so I sat down – or words to that effect.

When dawn entered, they started to leave. Then the Messenger of Allāh came and entered into the line with me, looking heavy and in pain, or almost like he was in pain from their towering over him. He (ﷺ) said:’I find myself tired’ – or words to that effect. So the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) placed his head on my lap to sleep. And the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) would snore when he slept.

While I was sitting there, after a while, these men came, wearing long white garments, and Allāh knows best how handsome they were. The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) had gone to sleep. They came towards me – I was more afraid than I was the first time – a group of them sat at the head of the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) and a group at his feet. So some of them said to each other: This servant has been given good, his eyes are asleep, but his heart is awake.

Some of them said to one another: Come, let us give him a parable. Some of them said to one another: You coin for him a parable, and we will interpret it, or we will coin for him a parable and you will interpret it.

So some of them said to each other: His parable is that of a leader who built a fortified fort, then he placed a table-spread in it and he invites people to eat and drink. So whoever answers his invitation, he eats from his food and drinks from his drink. And whoever does not come and eat his food, or who does not answer his invitation, he will punish him with a severe punishment.

The others said: As for the leader, he is the Lord of the worlds, and as for the fort, it is Islām, and the food is Paradise, and he (the prophet) is the one who invites, so whoever follows him will be in Paradise. And whoever does not follow him will be punished.

Then the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) woke up and said: ‘What did you see, Oh Ibn Umm ‘Abd?’ ‘Abdullāh said: I saw such-and-such. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘Nothing of what they said was hidden from me.’ The Prophet of Allāh (ﷺ) said:’ They are a group of the angels.’ Or he said:’ They are the angels.’

Musnad Ahmad 3788

Muhammad and Ibn Masud went to a remote area, just the two of them. Muhammad drew a circle around Ibn Masud, telling him to stay within to avoid death. Then, a group of black men appeared (the men of Al-Zutt). They were tall, skinny, and naked, though Ibn Masud couldn’t see their genitals. They began “towering” over Muhammad, and Muhammad began reciting the Quran. When their attention turned towards Ibn Masud, he responded by sitting down.

After the men left, Muhammad returned to Ibn Masud weary and in pain by reason of what they had done to him (their “towering” over him). Muhammad fell asleep on his lap. The men briefly appeared in white clothes again, spoke to Ibn Masud (even though Muhammad had said that they would not), then they left again.

This account does bear dissecting, as it has faced some slight attempt to revise, probably because Muslims have come to understand just how embarrassing this account is, or at least it’s potential to be interpreted in an embarrassing manner.

For one thing, you might have noticed the word “jinn” in brackets. The brackets indicate an addition to attempt to either revise or to attempt to add clarity. One way or another, it contains an assumption that the revisionist wants you to come to. The popular interpretation is that these men were actually Jinn, as the interpretation of them as humans has a high potential to be interpreted in a manner that’s very embarrassing to Islam.

Yet, this interpretation is defeated by a simple observation: Jinn are supposed to be invisible. If the men were jinn, Ibn Masud should not have been able to see them. What’s more, because jinn are supposed to be demons, they should not have been able to directly interact with the natural world. From a Biblical perspective, the most that demons could do is mess with people’s minds.

And yet, not only were these men able to physically interact with Muhammad, whatever they did to him left him tired and in pain.

Now, let’s get to that. According to this translation, the men were “towering on top” of Muhammad. It was to the point that “he was in pain from their towering over him.” So, whatever it was they were doing, it involved physical contact, and was not just standing near him menacingly while being taller than him.

The “towering” comes from a word that could instead be translated “rode” or “mounted”. This is interesting, because like the latter two English equivalents, they could be interpreted to mean getting on top of someone to be carried by them, like a piggyback ride, or they could be interpreted as meaning a person attached themselves to someone else in a sexual sense.

Yeah, that could be very embarrassing for Muhammad, Islam, and many Muslims around the world.

If it weren’t already evident that the revisors are trying to hide something, the original was actually more specific than referring to the men as “black people”. They were “men of Al-Zutt”. While this phrase could refer to men of African ancestry, it was more commonly known to refer to men from North Indian and Pakistani origin.

The men of Al-Zutt were famed, not just for their dark skin, but also for their libidos. They were said to have immense sexual appetites and persistent erections. And these men were the ones who met with Muhammad. If not, then the original texts wouldn’t have told us as much. But they did, and now we see the Islamic world going into damage control.

Again.

Interestingly, when Ibn Masud felt intimidated by the men, he responded by planting his butt down on the ground.

As more and more about Muhammad comes to light, it’s becoming more and more difficult for a person to be a Muslim, because there’s more and more about Islam and Muhammad for non-Muslims to laugh at.

Muslims themselves have to start asking themselves just what it is that they’re clinging to. I mean, do they really believe this stuff?

Again, just what is it that Muslims are clinging to?

Islam has one prophet, and only one. He claimed to be the greatest and final prophet, though no Biblical prophet foretold him. He wallowed in decadence, and the violence he committed funded his lavish lifestyle. He performed no miracles. None of them. Absolutely none. Not only that, he said as much.

He made prophecies which failed to come true, including his famous Day of Doom prophecy, which was supposed to involve huge, dramatic events which would lead to the deaths of all non-Muslims. He stated that this was to occur within 500 years of his own lifetime. It’s been over 1400 years since, and Muhammad’s biggest and most important prophecy was just a big nothing burger.

He sold out his own monotheistic religion for the wealth offered by the Quraysh, then said that Satan made him accept after he realized the blunder he had made. He made claims about the beliefs of Christians and Jews, attributing these claims to his god, which Christians and Jews didn’t actually believe in. Jews don’t call Ezra the Messiah. Muhammad was dead wrong.

He claimed to receive a revelation affirming that he could be pleasured by his sex slaves if he wanted, even if his wives wanted attention, with Muslims having that detail of his life to study for ages to come. When he was in his fifties, he consummated a marriage with a girl whose age consisted of a single digit.

He didn’t know what the Scriptures said, because he couldn’t read. After someone read them to him, he repeated them back wrong. And after he was called out for it, he claimed that the Scriptures were all edited in a widespread and conspiratorial manner, including the ones he insisted were right immediately after they were read to him.

By saying that the Christian Gospels were the source of all wisdom, he inadvertently called his own Quran completely unnecessary. He claimed that if he was lying while serving in a prophetic capacity, then his aorta would be severed. Which is interesting, because he described the pain of his own death with the same language.

He failed to foresee his own poisoning by a Jewish woman, leading to his own slow, agonizing, miserable death by reason of the complications in the years to come. He attempted sorcery to try to keep himself from dying. He claimed to receive a revelation telling him that he would live, then died shortly afterwards. And because he failed to appoint a successor, the resulting infighting among those lusting for control over the empire resulted in a divide which continues to this day.

And on top of all this, Muhammad went to meet men of Al-Zutt, to be “mounted” by them to the point that he’d be exhausted and in pain. And he was a willing party to it, as evidenced by the fact that he went to that spot, suggesting that he knew what was coming.

For Muslims, this account of the men of Al-Zutt has to be like a bad memory, and a pain in the backside to explain. Because, what exactly are we supposed to come away from with this story? If we’re to accept that the men were demons, the implication that they’d have anything positive to say about the religion of Islam doesn’t make Islam or Muhammad look any better. Seriously, what kind of selling point is it that demons think your religion is great?

But if we were to take the account at face value, that Muhammad was “rode” by men famous for their sexual appetites, doesn’t that mean that Muhammad is condemned to death by his own religion?

Christians don’t have to deal with this kind of thing, because no account like this is anywhere in the Bible. So, how come it’s Islam that frequently finds itself going into damage control? After spending hours and hours researching different ways to translate and interpret different passages so they don’t look nearly as incriminating for Muhammad and Islam, one would think that Muslims would come to the conclusion that their prophet wasn’t worth believing in.

But now, here we are, with Muslims trying to explain away that their own prophet, the central prophet of their religion, might have actually willingly engaged in group sex with other men.

Score one more for those who think that the official Islamic materials were authored by hostile sources.

TWAT News: CNN and gambling.

CNN is already famous for its journalistic integrity, so it’s natural to expect it to partner with prediction market website Kalshi.

If Kalshi sounds somewhat familiar, it’s probably because you’ve heard the name in passing when Polymarket was discussed.

Here’s Kalshi’s partnership announcement on X:

I like the term “prediction market”, by the way, because it’s a more Orwellian way of saying “gambling”.

Which I think gives us a pretty good understanding of how things are going for CNN after the abject failure of their streaming platform. They’re now partnering up with a gambling website.

Except, instead of a game of cards, the bets are on outcomes of current events such as elections. Which has lots of potential for a conflict of interest when you understand that CNN might report on an outcome that doesn’t fit the official narrative when there’s piles of their viewers’ money at stake.

We’re talking about the kind of people who went to school for years to become journalists only to end up writing articles like the kind touting cuckolding, if you’d trust their financial advise, you were probably going to lose that money somehow, anyway.

In case you’re wondering which of the two is on the bottom in the relationship, here’s a video of CNN with a scrolling Kalshi prediction tracker:

Simply pathetic.

At this point, it’s a valid question: Who the hell still watches CNN? My guess is that it’s the same credulous dimwits who heard the Russian collusion hoax, the Storm Daniels hush money story, and the Sandman defamation, and believed the people on their television screens without even the slightest trace of inquiry.

And now, CNN wants them to become addicted to gambling so they don’t lose the viewers that they have left.

Here’s the best take on this matter that I’ve seen that wasn’t one of my own:

Which gets me suspicious that insider trading may have just evolved into a form that gets around the law, at least for the time being.

But CNN has just partnered with a gambling website. That Was Actually The News.

Violent freak of current relevance just happened again.

When you think of someone who would have no problem integrating, among the first people you think of would probably be someone who demonstrated his loyalty by working with American intelligence for a decade during a major conflict. If just such a guy doesn’t take to American life, then there’s not much expectation for anyone from his part of the world. And how dare you notice?

Pictured above is Rahmanullah Lakanwal, whose name sounds like a combination of anger-vomiting and the sound of ants chewing your ears.

Rjxejvlexvh Lrquxxql spent most of his life in Afghanistan, a place where pederasty is considered normal, which probably factored somehow into how he ended up in Washington state. As with many migrants, he was assumed to be a blank slate, capable of adapting to life in a completely different culture, but he was probably indemnified of all violent sexual offenses, just to be safe. All in the hope of a hypothetical scenario that he could become a contributor to the wealth of a large corporate entity which would pay him significantly less than a born American.

Rhg#&oo9’h Lufz3>*h became isolated and mentally ill to the point of being non-functional, and would frequently go on long car rides for no reason. So, so much for the whole dealie with him being a productive contributor, or anything to that effect. But hey, it’s not like he was some homicidal maniac, right?

On November 26, 2025, after a long car ride from Washington state to Washington DC, Rherph Lderph opened fire, fatally injuring one deputized national guardsman, and injuring another. While he might have hoped to have met 72 virgin goats, he was instead shot then captured alive, and presumably treated for his own wound, before being fitted with a turtle apron and given a copy of the Quran so he can brush up on that religion that made his life suck so hard.

Reactions to the attack have been mixed. Those on the left face the daunting task of presenting the situation in a way that doesn’t make their own pet policies look bad, while the right basically just told us what happened.

While the attack can be viewed as the tragic outcome of a psychotic break from reality, it does present us with yet another talking point for the culture realists. That is to say, it really is a great idea for the western world to discuss just how unreasonable it is to expect people from radically different cultures to integrate into the civilized world.

In the case of Rtthgrrmh L00flgrll, he is from Afghanistan. Not only is child marriage considered normal there, it’s a place where effeminate boys are groomed for trafficking to affluent men, in spite of Islam’s prohibition on homosexuality (the men reason this away by telling themselves that it’s not homosexuality if they don’t love the boys being trafficked). Not only that, it’s a place where the gang rape of boys by other boys is more common than it should be.

If you can be aware of all this and still believe that anyone from Afghan culture should be brought into the civilized world, then you are too stupid to chew your own food.

The fact is, not every culture is the same. There are cultures where, if a person comes out of it, there’s no realistic expectation that they’ll be able to integrate elsewhere.

The propagation of the idea of the blank slate has been dangerously irresponsible. Not only that, there’s the idea that our own values are universal. Both ideas are out of touch with reality, and when they’re used to justify policy, people are put at risk.

Back to R!*%@^$h L*#!^*^#h. Adding to the poor optics of his attack is the fact that National Guardsman in DC were attacked, which was guaranteed to get a strong reaction out of the Trump administration. And Trump responded by declaring his intention of halting all migration into the US from the third world.

Which was probably not the kind of thing that R________h L_________h would have wanted. The fact is, people don’t respond to terrorism with fear the way that people might expect. Instead, people get pissed off. Terrorism just isn’t an effective tactic, anymore.

But then, people who attempt terrorism aren’t reasonable people. And because they’re not reasonable, you’re better off not having them around.

Did Mike Judge try to warn us?

As hard as it may be to believe, the nineties MTV cartoon Beavis and Butthead actually had a point. That point being, that watching too much TV could make you stupid.

As we examine today’s story, I think it will become apparent why this came to mind.

Two Texas men, by the name of Gavin Weisenburg and Tanner Thomas, were both arrested after they had planned an invasion of an African island, with the intention of killing all the men on the island, and turning all the women and children into their sex slaves.

That was already a mouthful. And yet, there’s still more to unpack.

As part of their plan, the two studied Haitian Creole, researched firearms and the means to transport them, and joined the Air Force with the intention of attaining tactical knowledge. One of them is accused of spending time in Thailand to learn to commandeer a boat in preparation for their mission.

The two would transfer to an air base near DC, where the two would attempt to recruit homeless people for their invasion.

Crossing the Atlantic with an army of stoner dipshits? What can go wrong?

For one thing, they got caught. Because that’s how it went down, they now face potential life imprisonment, and possibly up to 30 more years for a charge of generating Cheese Pizza.

But what could have happened is that they could have attempted the trip, and the sea itself could’ve kicked their asses. A trip across the Atlantic by boat is no joke. Especially with hurricanes.

Finally, and worst for them, they could’ve actually arrived on the island, and promptly got their asses beat by the island’s 87000 inhabitants.

Wowee, there’s so much to this story that’s hard to believe. For one thing, that there was one person who had the idea to invade an island to turn it’s entire female population into their personal harem. But what’s more, that there were two such people, and they somehow found each other.

What’s more, I thought that the US armed forces turned people away if their IQs were less than 82. But not only did Beavis and Butthead join, they got into the Air Force, which is supposed to be where the smart boys end up.

Third, I act under the assumption that even ordinary US citizens are under surveillance, though I wish that that wasn’t the case. How is it that these two were actually in the government (by virtue of being in the armed forces) and their plan got as far as it did?

Then there’s the apparent assumption that the international community would just turn a blind eye to a gaggle of American stoners invading Africa. Did these two really think their plan would prosper in the long run, or even come anywhere close to working?

I don’t know, but I get the idea that Mike Judge tried to warn us.

It’s now hunting season.

Last week, a new feature was implemented on X, which allows us to see the locations where various accounts have been created. With this, many, many foreign actors have been exposed as attempting to influence American politics.

You love to see it.

As I’ve pointed out before, someone isn’t from the same country as you just because they post in the same language.

This development would’ve been better about two years ago, before a gaggle of foreign influencers hacked the brains of millions of gullible zoomers into supporting a long-known terrorist organization. But now, we get to watch them squirm as they realize how stupid they really are.

I’ve selected a few “hello fellow children” accounts, towards which we can now direct a hearty Nelson laugh.

fUSTED as Buck.

By the way, many of those exposed have responded by deleting their accounts. Many of which were Indian bots. Indian as in from India, not native American.

Still, posing as disgruntled native Americans is a recurring theme among those wishing to influence American politics.

In fact, one guy collected a few Bangladeshi examples:

I wonder how many of them are the same guy. Sock Puppet Theater!

So, who’s exposed now?

You know you’ve been hearing that nearly all anti-Jewish, anti-Israel content is from Muslim majority countries? That’s because that’s just what’s going on.

Another “hello fellow Americans, I’m just like you” account that turned out to be some guy in Saudi Arabia.

This one is from Azerbaijan. Many such cases.

By the way, see the shield next to the location data? This indicates the possible use of a VPN, sometimes as a feature of a browser or ISP, and not necessarily intended to be used by the account creator. So there could be false positives.

Look, a Canadian telling us which presidential candidate they intend to vote for in the US election. If they actually did, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Gather around! Some guy from the Phillipines has something to say about Jewish statehood!

Today has been an unmitigated win for the Zionist conspiracy.

1776General_ was a massive groyper chud who, as it turns out, lives in Turkey.

I wonder just how much of Nick Fuentes’ audience was just outed as not being very “America first” at all. Probably nearly 100%.

In fact, many a community is finding something out about their haters:

There’s more. Much more. So I’ll just leave this post with this:

EDIT: There is a fake screen going around showing the US DHS as being run from Israel. But here is what you find if you check the DHS account on X:

If someone’s bullshit is easy to disprove in mere seconds, then just who are they trying to fool? It’s no surprise that the anti-Israel crowd isn’t terribly bright, but it’s as though they are trying to cultivate a following of credulous halfwits.
