What an absolute disgrace.

Leave a reply

A murder aboard a train in North Carolina has caught the attention of many on social media, who in turn noted the lack of coverage in corporate mainstream media outlets. What’s especially catching the attention of people around the world is how senseless, callous, and preventable the murder was.

The murder was caught on camera, and was afterward shared online.

The suspect of the crime, Decarlos Brown Jr., had previously been arrested 14 times. That wasn’t a typo, prior to the murder, he was arrested 14 times. Apparently, each time Decarlos proved he was a dangerous miscreant, with charges such as felony larceny, assault, and robbery with a dangerous weapon, it was decided that he would be released back into the public, where he would have an opportunity to offend again, a total of 14 times.

And if he were released a 15th time, it wouldn’t surprise me.

The video of the incident is below. Though the completion of the murder is omitted, the following footage is disturbing.

Iryna Zarutska had previously fled the country of Ukraine, which was at war with the country of Russia. One might think she would have been safe in the city of Charlotte, in the American state of North Carolina. However, this would prove to not be the case.

Prior to Iryna’s boarding of the train, Decarlos is seen appearing visibly distraught. When Iryna boarded, she took a seat in front of Decarlos. Decarlos took note of this, and after a pause, produced a pocket knife, which he then unfolded with careful deliberation. After another moment, he stood up and carried out his savage attack on Iryna, who did not see it coming.

There was absolutely no indication that Iryna had done anything to provoke the attack. It seemed completely senseless.

After completing the attack, Decarlos then calmly proceeded down the cabin, still holding the knife in his hand. As he did so, blood dripped from the knife, leaving drops on the floor.

As he did so, some of the other passengers appeared to take note that something was amiss. The victim, having just been slain, had caught their attention, and they took note of the blood on the floor.

On the other end of the cabin, Decarlos calmly removed his hoodie, and wrapped it around his hand which was still carrying the knife, perhaps an attempt to conceal his part in the crime he had just committed. He departed the train at a stop.

The passengers in the video have faced some criticism for appearing to be either calm or indecisive in the video above. In my opinion, they cannot be faulted for their response. For one thing, there is a phenomenon called normalcy bias, where people in unusual situations maintain a tendency to continue to behave as though the situation were mundane, even if briefly, because for a moment they find it difficult to accept that there may be an unusual situation. Another reason may be indecision, or even panicking. Even if a person drills what they would do in an emergency, when an emergency occurs, it might occur in a manner different than how one might imagine, and thus, they might panic, or become indecisive.

In reality, it’s not realistic to expect ordinary people to behave like protagonists in action movies.

People all over the world have attempted to make sense of the murder. It seems a prevalent theory is that Decarlos had a mental illness, and that his violent act can be likened to “the bad voices winning.” Others point to his extensive criminal record, and say that his violent outburst was the inevitable outcome of allowing a person with a history of violence to roam free. Of course, both theories can be true.

Whatever the reason for it, it’s clear that Decarlos Brown Jr. is guilty of the crime we have video evidence of. But he is not the only one with guilt.

There are professions in which negligence should be considered criminal. To be fair, in most cases, it’s not a big deal. For example, if you order your meal at Wendy’s as dine-in, then get your meal in a bag, it’s not a big deal. However, if a doctor preps a patient for heart surgery, then the patient wakes up without an arm because they were mixed up with another patient, the negligence involved should be considered criminal.

So it is with those in criminal justice who continually release violent offenders who repeatedly commit recidivist offenses. They have failed the public, whose safety was in their hands. They must be held accountable.

I’ve noticed that many people have suggested creative punishments for Decarlos Brown Jr. As I see it, upon finding him guilty (which should be inevitable considering the preponderance of evidence against him), he should be put to death. His execution should be public, and carried out without delay.

I liked them better when they were fiction.

If you hate bugs, get ready to hate them even more.

Pictured above is what’s called an amaranthine deceptor. It’s a fictional insect from Made In Abyss. Its deal is that it inhabits the 6th layer of an environment called The Abyss. They imitate leaves, which makes them difficult to detect without careful attention. They won’t travel too far away from their nest, and spend much of their time just sitting on plants, resembling leaves.

The problem comes in when they receive a signal to attack. When this happens, they immediately swarm the area, attacking any critter that they can, trying to force themselves into any opening, such as their mouths. Once embedded, they live inside their host as parasites, slowly feeding on flesh, and trying to delay the death of the host so they can continue feasting on a living meal. Eventually, the host dies.

Though the bugs live in the 6th layer, they posed a problem when a number of them made a nest in the 4th layer. The party of protagonists had a brief encounter with them at the beginning of the film, Dawn of the Deep Soul, and haven’t been in a hurry to encounter more of them, since. Their danger classification is five stars (absurd).

“Okay,” you might be saying, “but those bugs are made up. If something like that actually existed, wouldn’t more people know about them?” If that’s what you’re wondering, then get ready to have your day ruined.

Pictured here is what’s called a cochliomiya hominivorax, also simply known as a screwworm. What’s its deal? When a pregnant female screwworm sees an open wound on a warm-blooded mammal, it goes for it, laying its eggs in the wound. It can lay hundreds of eggs at a time.

Oh, in case you’re wondering: Yes, humans are warm-blooded mammals.

When the eggs hatch, the larvae begin feasting on the surrounding flesh, burrowing deeper as it does, which is where it gets the name “screwworm”. Currently, the only option for treating a screwworm infection is surgery, which involves removing the little abominations, often one at a time.

At this point, the next question I imagine you have is, “Where do these monstrosities live, so I’ll know to stay away from them?”

At one point, they were common in the American southwest. But then, they migrated to the southeast as infected livestock were shipped. In the 1960s, Americans decided that they were tired of their buggy bullshit, so they released a bunch of lab-raised sterile male screwworms into the wild, causing females to bear unviable eggs. As a result, the screwworms were driven down to Central America, where they were no longer our problem.

Personally, I would have consented to their complete eradication, but it was still a job well done. There was a small outbreak in 2016 among endangered deer in Florida, but the outbreak was eliminated in 2017.

But now we’re talking about them, again. Why is that? Because there is a confirmed human case in the state of Maryland, and the victim is a traveler from El Salvador.

Screwworm populations have been monitored, and have become an increasing concern as they’ve been migrating steadily North, and have migrated as far as Mexico since an outbreak originating in Panama in 2023, which happens to be when unchecked mass migration was in full swing during the Biden administration.

But a human case as far North as the state of Maryland comes as a shock. Sure, we can release more lab-raised sterile male screwworms to fight back. But I don’t want those things coming back here, at all.

Because we’ve established that screwworms can make it to the US via infected travelers, aren’t they another compelling reason why unchecked mass migration is a horrendously bad idea?

Angry Lunatic Muslim Woman Freaks Out

Leave a reply

You might remember the old YouTube classic about the angry German kid who flips out while waiting for a computer game to load. We finally got a sequel, and it made its way to us before GTA VI did.

The following video shows us body cam footage of a woman who was just pulled over. She immediately starts ranting, proclaiming herself the victim because another driver wanted to kill her. And with her X-Men supercognition, she knew that the other driver had to be motivated by Islamophobia.

By the way, people can stop calling every criticism a “phobia”. That’s been going on for about two decades now, and it hasn’t gotten anywhere. Whether you think someone is motivated by fear doesn’t make you any less wrong. Move on.

The woman took out her iPhone and proceeded to record her conversation with the officer, being so full of herself that she thought the internet would side with her, which is ironic considering how things would end up playing out.

What’s really fascinating is that the moment the woman learns that she is going to be arrested, things turn religious. But not in a good way. She’s not bringing a message of love, or of patience. Nor is she bringing a message of salvation for all people.

No, she was being religious in a bad way. Her message is one of vengeance and vindictiveness. As she saw it, the arresting officers who were just doing their jobs were deliberately siding with a fallen angel, and will eventually pay a price.

Oftentimes, when someone is delusional, they’ll insist that they’re something special, like one of “the two witnesses”, or that they’ve discovered some great secret, or otherwise have some grandiose fantasy. As they see it, it’s because of this that some entity is out to get them, usually a powerful entity, such as the government, or demons, or a government that serves demons.

If demons were actually involved, it seems more reasonable to expect that they’d be messing with a person by feeding into a grandiose delusion, and convince them that the government is out to get them.

One thing that the woman reiterates is how special she is. That the officers aren’t supposed to “do this” to an Arab. How a male officer isn’t supposed to cuff her, or search her, or even touch her (the officers would bring a female officer to assist). It’s all an obvious and desperate attempt at evasion, knowing what’s coming and making it as difficult as possible, and proclaiming that there will be consequences if she doesn’t get her way.

One thing that’s particularly amusing about this is the implication that because she’s an Arab woman, she’s indemnified of all crimes. I wonder how long she might have believed this. If your belief is that you can’t be arrested, that’s a belief that’s going to go splat the moment it collides with reality.

And speaking of reality, it left the chat. As the woman is being driven to the station, she proclaims herself to be Muhammad. The Muhammad. And the officer lost his chance to bow down to her when he refused to take her orders.

You know about that seventh-century chomo warlord who claimed to be a prophet? That was Muhammad: A New Hope. That was old news. Now we’re talking about Muhammad: The Empire Strikes Back. This is the one without those stoopid ewoks.

I feel bad for anyone who dated her. That had to have been a nightmare. Of course, it’s possible that her genes benefited heavily from arranged marriages for generations.

Let’s be a little more serious for a moment. Based on what little I’ve seen of this incident, I suspect that drugs were involved. I suspect that the woman wasn’t always like the way she behaved in the bodycam footage, but some substance abuse, or possibly a side effect of medication, caused the woman to become disinhibited. When a person becomes disinhibited, their personality and beliefs usually don’t change. Instead, the person will become more candid with their beliefs, including those which they may have been too reserved to share. The woman’s erratic driving supports the hypothesis that controlled substances were involved.

If this is the case, then it follows that she had to have gotten the idea that she was special from somewhere. I suspect that such an idea may have been culturally impressed upon her, likely from her family, and likely from a young age. Under most circumstances, she would have known that sharing such ideas, some of which are racist, is usually not a great idea. However, if drugs were involved, she would have lost her inhibitions, and her ideas may have had grandiose elements added to them.

I would imagine that, if the woman were later sober, she would not have been happy to hear her own words played back to her. Especially if they were played back in a court of law.

If the woman were sincere in the delusions that she expressed, one could ask how she was able to function in society up until the point of her arrest. That’s not to say that it can’t happen. Back in my days of working retail, I’ve seen people of various degrees of interesting, but as far as I know, none of those people started trending on social media.

While it’s fun to imagine the crazy woman who goes from day to day thinking herself the modern day Muhammad, what we saw was probably just her worst moment. I say that as someone who didn’t much look into her case.

Whatever her background may have been, it likely fed significantly into what came to the surface, and when it did, it was quite a scene. Perhaps we’ll see more out of her, soon.

Leftists are planning a one-day “economic blackout” for tomorrow. LOL.

Hey look, another stupid one-day boycott:

Pictured above is the gameplan for a left-wing one-day boycott of major businesses and services, in the hopes of sending a message. That message being, “we show them who really holds the power”.

The boycott is being pitched as non-partisan, but considering it’s traction among the left, it’s plainly a reaction on their part because they’re upset that they’re losing their grip on culture. The claim of being non-partisan is clearly intended as an attempt to expand leftists’ influence when they know that they are not culturally dominant.

They are not the “silent majority”, and the 2024 Presidential election provided the numbers to prove it.

Here’s a list of their extended gameplan, which makes mention of companies that have ditched DEI, such as Wal-Mart and Amazon:

You might be wondering, “Raizen, what are you doing sharing their gameplan? Doesn’t that help them?” I’ll explain why passing this info along doesn’t help them in the following list of reasons the boycott is almost certain to fail:

  • Boycotters prep for one-day boycotts by making their purchases in advance, or making up for them in the days after, so the companys’ bottom lines are often unaffected. This is especially the case with products such as gasoline.
  • Investors who learn of the boycott in advance can reallocate their investments, and thus profit off the boycott.
  • Imagine consoomers not consooming for a day.
  • Some people may decide to spend an inordinate amount on the day of the boycott, out of spite.
  • People tend to have less money when they don’t understand how the world works. For that reason, if leftist foot soldiers decide not to spend for a day, it’s probably not going to be very impactful.

And a bunch of leftists presume to tell the rest of us about economics.

So no, it’s not necessary for you to make a big ol’ shopping list and go wild on Friday. The left-wing one-day boycott is largely self-defeating.

And with how much better off companies that ditch DEI are likely to be in the long-term, they probably won’t much care.

When a Pokémon Bears a Stronger Resemblance Than Intended

Leave a reply

A few years ago, I pointed out that a Pokémon resembling Donald Trump has been added to the Pokémon franchise through the Sun and Moon versions.

According to GameFreak, the makers of the Pokémon games, the Pokémon, named Yungoos, was not intended to bear a resemblance to Donald Trump.

Donald Trump, as you’re likely well aware, was nearly assassinated just days ago, the gunman only having succeeded in removing a chunk of Trump’s right ear.

Yungoos has an evolved form, named Gumshoos, which bears a stronger resemblance to Trump. Notice something about its ear?

Yeah, it’s got a notch in its ear.

To be fair, both its ears are like this, and some small mammals do have bifurcated ears. So, I feel inclined to say that this is just a coincidence. After all, why would GameFreak be able to see the future?

But I expect some people to point to this as evidence of the simulation glitching out.

Star Wars cannot be salvaged.

Normally, when I want to write a review, I try to avoid other people’s opinions of what’s being reviewed beforehand, because I want my review to be my genuine opinion. For anyone who has set out to write a review of Star Wars’ The Acolyte, this has become just about impossible, because the “creative” decisions made by Disney has proven to be a greater threat to the franchise than any Sith could manage to be, and as a result, social media is dragging it across nails.

Don’t get the wrong idea; I had no intention of reviewing The Acolyte, because I had no intention of watching it. While I was aware of it, it largely escaped my notice as it came around, because I don’t even bother with Star Wars, anymore.

I used to be a fan of Star Wars. I was introduced to it as a kid. At that point, Star Wars was a story that George Lucas wrote with the intention of making religion more interesting for children, which he evidently did with a reimagining of the story of David and Goliath. Except he showed a kid who wanted to be a pilot being radicalized into joining a terrorist organization by a religious zealot, then the kid went on to destroy a military base, killing millions.

But since Disney took over, their creative decisions have proven more disastrous than when George Lucas noticed that people were actually paying attention, and he decided to stop plagiarizing Dune. I gave the franchise a chance to change for the better, but I’ve since decided that I don’t really need it, and I’ve discovered that anime is better at avoiding identity politics and narcissistic power fantasies.

Based on what I’ve been hearing, I thought that the dumbest thing about The Acolyte would be the scene which showed a fire burning in space, without oxygen. Considering that Star Wars was the series that originally gave parsecs as a measure of time, not distance, it would have been a whatever moment.

But then, it turns out that it featured a sect of lesbian space witches who willed themselves pregnant, probably because their fertile years ran out as they furthered their educations and careers. So they became intersectional feminists because it’s easier to blame men than to confront their decisions to run out their biological clocks on pursuits that women don’t ultimately find meaning in, anyway. Then, after having tried everything but dating, they turned to magic. One can also point out that scissoring doesn’t work, there’s that.

Disney has written vomit. Star Wars was once a hero’s journey style of story, which nearly always involves a lesson that there are things outside of your own interests and pursuits. What Disney has written instead is blatant intersectional pandering and wish fulfillment, which actually overwrites some of the most important features of established canon. If the idea of a space witch achieving pregnancy through force of will sounds familiar, it’s because that was supposed to have been an innovation of Darth Plageus, the master of Emperor Palpatine. Did Disney forget about this? Or are they having as difficult a time keeping the source material straight as the average fan?

I’m not of the thinking that entertainment must necessarily teach a lesson. After all, entertainment is largely made-up, and the authors can insert an arbitrary moral in an attempt to justify the existence of the product to a concerned fundamentalist, and can make the moral anything that they want, including stupid nonsense that has no chance of working when put into practice in the real world. As such, I don’t expect Star Wars to contain some deep, existential meaning, especially with Disney writing it. Star Wars is not going to contain the meaning of life, especially with Disney writing up a fantasy about lesbian witches wishing themselves pregnant.

About the meaning of life, I personally think it’s pretty obvious. Life is about increasing the living mass, and increasing consciousness. You see this in nature, when you see a simple protein taking matter and free energy, and using it to create more simple proteins like itself. From a biological point of view, for us to produce progeny is the most important thing that we can do. And we have the means to do so without having to join a cult which attempts to bring it about with magical thinking. And, when it comes down to it, lesbianism is a subversion of the process.

Star Wars is supposed to be entertainment, but it’s failing miserably at that. That’s to be expected, when Disney is looking to score DEI points with intersectional pandering which alienates the vast majority of people. After all, less than 2% of all people are homosexual, and the rest are likely to be alienated by something that they don’t care to be associated with.

In fact, there’s more at stake than it not being interesting. Do you know what women in general think of homosexual men? They don’t respect them. Because women by nature tend to be more agreeable, they aren’t likely to say as much. But most women don’t want to date a man who has engaged in gay sex. This is because women care whether men have put their features in places where they do not belong. Women view gay men as having an ick on them that cannot be washed off. When heterosexual men are aware of this, it’s natural that they’d want to distance themselves from anything homosexual.

When you have the theory of mind that permits an awareness of this, it’s abundantly clear that writing in homosexual wish fulfillment is counterproductive to a brand whose objective is to have as broad an appeal as possible. I don’t wear the Star Wars logo for the same reason I don’t drink Bud Light: the image associated with the brand is something I’d rather avoid.

It’s because of this that I haven’t bothered with Star Wars in a long time. So when I hear that Disney attempted another spin-off that spits right in the faces of those who are still involved, all that really is to me is a spectacle for me to behold, pointing and laughing.

Other than that, Star Wars doesn’t mean anything to me.

This is an unmitigated disaster.

Lately, I’ve been feeling a little nostalgic. Therefore, I decided to look up places where I used to live on Google Maps’ streetview. Then, out of curiosity, I decided to look up an apartment community that I used to live at.

As I did, I was hit with the community’s rent, which nearly doubled since my time there, just over a decade ago.

It was unbelievable. So, I looked up rent for other places in the area, and the trend was consistent.

It’s only been a few years since I last checked. And just within the last few years, rent has skyrocketed to the point of nearly doubling.

I can tell you why this so deeply affects me. Back when I last lived in that community, I worked a full-time retail job, but somehow lived on what little I made. On most months, I barely scraped by. Most of the time, I was concerned about my finances, because there was nothing I could do to save a significant amount. If anything went even slightly wrong, my financial situation would have been a disaster.

Right now, I’m much better off. But I couldn’t try living the same way I did in the same place, if I were to make the same money. If anyone tried now, what are they supposed to do?

I’ll throw some numbers your way: On the typical month, I took home about $1100 per month. Rent got to be about $800 per month. Of the rest, most went towards other expenses like bills, leaving me with about $30 to spend on stuff to eat. For the time being, I’ll leave you to imagine the kind of food that I ate.

But if the rent were to instead be $1500 per month? Just forget about it, unless you were to share the one-bedroom apartment with one or two other guys.

Lately, I’ve been entertaining the thought of moving back near my hometown. But now? That doesn’t seem reasonable.

Thinking on what could have happened in the last few years that might have resulted in this, there’s one thing that springs readily to mind: an explosion in unchecked immigration has caused demand to soar. Companies like BlackRock have profited huge off of shitty policy that has fucked Americans over, and the current dogwater administration has done jack-all outside of enabling it.

If you’re poor and just getting by, leave a comment and let me know how you’re getting it to work out.

Jews in NYC Riot Over Tunnel

Leave a reply

This morning, I opened up X, saw a story about Jewish tunnels in New York City, and thought, “Oh boy, now what is it?”.

Apparently, a tunnel was discovered connecting a Synagogue in NYC to a grate across the street. Since its discovery, the city proceeded to attempt to fill the tunnel up, sparking a riot among the Chabad Jews who carved the tunnel, apparently because they really liked their tunnel.

There’s a bit of misinformation going around about how the tunnel might have been built so that Jews could access their Synagogue during the Covid lockdowns, but if we’re being honest, it’s still not completely clear what purpose the tunnel served. As one might expect, the intellectual dead-ends who blame the Jews for every last problem that they have were quick to assume the worst, because of course they would.

I’ll be honest and say that I’m no expert when it comes to Judaism, but from what little I know, among the Jews, the Chabads are considered to be something of an outlier, similar to how the Mormons are viewed by the rest of Christianity. I really don’t know what kind of religious justification there could be for a tunnel going from a synagogue.

But whatever the reason may be, a bunch of people in black suits and funny hats flew into a rage at the prospect of the city of New York filling the tunnel back up.

If you wanna see, and I don’t blame you, I managed to find someone on social media that hosted a video that had an impartial tone:

Also, I’ll share this because I found the picture cute. Mozel tov mouseys!

https://twitter.com/CueBacca17/status/1744734137695744048?s=20

There’s also some disinformation about this story going around. Which is to be expected, because there is potential to defame the Jews, and there’s an excess of sub-room-temp-IQ wignats who defied the rules of natural selection to survive to the point that wireless internet can be set up for them, with the rest of us probably paying for it in some way. Dispelling disinformation is not my job, and if it was, it’d be a full time job, and probably wouldn’t pay enough considering the muck one would have to sift through. Among these is the claim that the tunnel led to an elementary school across the street, and was used to expedite a child-trafficking ring.

So, I entered “Chabad Lubavitch World Headquarters” on Google Maps to check to see whether an elementary school was, in fact, across the street from the Synagogue. This is what I found:

All one really had to do was check Google Maps and see for themselves that there’s no elementary school across the street from the Synagogue in question. If you fell for the lie, then the world must be a scary and confusing place for you. Which it is for the rest of us, but perhaps much more so for you.

As for what the tunnel was really about, I suppose we’ll find out from much brighter people in the days ahead. But considering the sheer number of Jewish facilities in the area, I suspect that they wanted an access tunnel, and went ahead and carved one out without the city’s permission. Which is irresponsible, considering the danger of sinkholes and the possibility of a tunnel collapse. I know that crossing the street can be quite an inconvenience in a place like New York City, but carving a tunnel is quite the investment of time, itself.

If you can think of a conspiracy theory involving Jewish tunnels that actually sounds intelligent, please share in the comments. I’m still yet to hear one.

Bin Laden and the Algorithmic Manipulators

Leave a reply

Before we get into this, I’m curious how many of you had “leftists voice agreement with Osama Bin Laden” on your bingo card for 2023. It’s understandable if you didn’t, but what a year this is turning out to be.

In the year 2002, Osama Bin Laden, the very same Bin Laden that ran the terror network Al Qaeda, had issued a letter titled, A Letter to America, wherein he laid out his rationale for the 9/11 terror attacks.

I, for one, am skeptical that Bin Laden actually authored the letter, as he had initially steadfastly denied being involved in the attacks, and each of the hijackers actually attended the Al Quds mosque in Hamburg, Germany, which was never shut down, as far as I could tell.

In the letter, Bin Laden pointed out that there was no such thing as innocent civilians in the U.S.’s democracy, pointing out that his violent actions were a reaction to the policy positions of representatives that civilians voted into office. He voiced such an opposition to U.S. policy that it sounded suspiciously like it was intended to feed into a casus belli for further American intervention. Hopefully it’s understandable why I’m skeptical.

The letter had been published by British news outlet The Guardian, who took it down when a recent spate of TikTok videos appeared expressing surprise at the contents of the letter, with some expressing agreement with Bin Laden’s sentiments, saying that they’ve had their preconceived notions challenged, and encouraging their viewers to also read the letter.

Normally, I’d embed at least one example of such a video here, but I’m not doing that this time, for a reason that I’ll get into later on in this post.

When it comes to a letter from Osama Bin Laden, I’m curious what people were expecting. Did they expect something like five paragraphs of hand-wringing and mustache-twirling, proceeded by cartoon-villain cackling? The guy had a following, and he had a following for a reason: he was able to justify his positions, even if through faulty reasoning, and he did so in such a way that would have been considered convincing to those who lacked the ability to comprehend true evil, or at least those who would be dumb enough to fall for his arguments.

People with bad positions are usually able to justify their positions. Take the flat-earthers, for example. People know that flat-earthers are wrong. However, they take for granted that flat-earthers are wrong. So when they get into a debate with one, they imagine that it will be a piece-of-cake slam dunk victory. But then the debate begins, and the flat-earther runs circles around them, because they know how the game is played, they have rhetorical deceit down to a science, they came prepared with arguments that most people are not prepared for, and they themselves came prepared for the arguments and rebuttals that they could reasonably expect. The result is that a typical, middle-of-the-road thinker is left to kick dust on the way home, knowing that he lost a debate to a flat-earther.

While we’re at it, I’m curious as to what people think is in Hitler’s Mein Kampf. While it’s true that much of it is a hateful tirade made to appeal to one with an external locus of control, it’s also a political manifesto that would have been considered encouraging to a German who would have felt downtrodden in Hitler’s time.

Evil people are able to justify their wickedness, even if their reasoning is deeply flawed. To them, what most would see as wicked may be what they see as justifiable, or even banal.

By way of another example, there’s also the manifesto of Ted Kazynski, the person who is popularly known as the Unabomber. When his manifesto was published, the expectation would have understandably been the ramblings of a deluded psychopath who believed that the moon followed him as he walked around. As it turns out, he made some points about society that many people considered valid.

Returning to Bin Laden, I wonder how many people out there have forgotten that he was a religious zealot, whose own religion is pretty-much everything that a stereotypical leftist pretends that Christianity is. Bin Laden was an Islamist, who wanted to implement Sharia in the west.

The following is a few of Bin Laden’s policy positions:

  • Executing gays,
  • Normalizing slavery (and no, I’m not kidding),
  • Outlawing bacon,
  • Outlawing grown-up beverages,
  • Outlawing non-religious music,
  • A functionally-retarded banking system that’s somehow supposed to run without interest,
  • Normalizing pederasty, which has been legal in Afghanistan for decades,
  • State-sponsorship of a cult that discourages the pursuit of anything outside of itself,
  • That science is not allowed to question, among other things, that the earth is flat,
  • A judicial system that’s so capricious that tyrants are needed to maintain order,
  • That the testimony of a woman is either 1/2 or 1/4 that of a man in courts of law.

There’s a lot more. And a bunch of simpletons are impressed with this guy?

Now, let’s get into the reason why I’m not leaving a video embed in this post. Personally, I doubt that these people actually believe what they’re saying. The fact is, the TikTok algorithm boosts what gets plenty of engagement, and what’s rage-inducing (such as police-brutality videos) tend to get more attention. I suspect that these are just people who know how the game is played, and are attempting to farm the algorithm for views. I don’t want to give them a signal boost, because I don’t want them to have more attention.

But even if they don’t believe it, they still have followings that may take their words for it. And that’s how attempts to game an algorithm can have potentially harmful outcomes. We’ve already seen how videos of police brutality have inspired looting and rioting. Now, there are social media influencers out to make a quick buck who don’t care about the long-term social damage that can occur as a result of algorithmic manipulation.

But if the social media influencers were sincere, then there’s no telling how they’ll react when they get around to reading something that’s actually reasonable, such as the basic philosophical underpinnings of Libertarianism, or that of Austrian economics.

To get to the heart of the matter, however eloquent that his justifications could have possibly been, it still remains that Osama Bin Laden was a murderous nutjob who hid behind his religion, which played a significant role in motivating him to become the killer he ended up becoming.

Now, the indoctrinators of the political left are looking on in horror as the very children that they indoctrinated went on to side with terrorists like Al Qaeda and Hamas, simply because those terrorist organizations have been using similar rhetoric to justify themselves. And now said indoctrinators are losing control of the very generation with which they had hoped to usher in a revolution, and are losing control of them to a bunch of religious fanatics who are far more hateful than even themselves.

I can think of no better way to fight back than to make it known why their new ideology is not worth fighting for. Just because it’s obvious to me why this is the case doesn’t mean that everyone can be reasoned with.

If it turns out that the letter actually was a U.S. psy-op, the consequences might almost be funny. Except not quite.

Chris Chan is back.

It’s hard to imagine this ending well. But then again, there’s a lot about this that turned out different from what I had imagined.

Chris Chan is back online.

This is just what he shouldn’t be doing. Much of his troubles got started when he first appeared online, attracting the curiosity of people around the world, including those who would mess with him.

Okay, he had problems even before he became e-famous. But if all he did was stalk women at shopping centers before security told him to leave, and act like an asshole at Pokémon TCG Leagues, that would have been better for him.

But nope, he got a web presence. And after people criticized him, he attempted damage control, and in so doing, made things far worse for himself. After a while, it became hard to tell how much of his antics were a result of people messing with him, and how much of it would have been him, anyway.

When it comes to this kind of person, it’s better to look on rather than become involved in some way. People who try trolling or otherwise get close to Chris usually end up regretting it, as they get attention that they ended up not wanting.

As messed up as Chris Chan is, just about everyone was surprised when he was arrested, accused of committing incest with his own mother. That was about the point that your boomer daddy might have heard about him from an old-fashioned news outlet. After that, anyone who held out hope for Chris Chan changing for the better were collectively disappointed, and dropped him like a hot rock.

After that came a mostly obscure legal battle, which was largely kept from public view, and after two years, Chris’s lawyer somehow succeeded in getting the case dismissed. I don’t go breaking laws, but if I were to get in legal trouble, I’d want that lawyer on my side.

After all that, what do you imagine would be the smartest thing Chris could do? Easy: Keep a reduced online presence, and mind his own business.

And the thing was, things were starting to look great for him. He somehow actually managed to find a girlfriend. As hard as it is to imagine a woman so desperate that she’d be willing to mash pissers with Chris Chan, it seems it happened. Incels, what’s your excuse?

Chris Chan might actually have Crystal Chandler’s little pitter-pattering footsteps in his near future, and all he has to do is avoid fucking things up for himself. Again.

But rather than stay offline, he instead gets on his old YouTube channel, and posts this mess:

(DISCLAIMER: Chris Chan is horrendous at singing.)

I was hoping that his whole messiah complex was just malingering, a sad attempt at an insanity defense, to be dropped like a sack of sadness as soon as it was no longer of any use to him. To continue in a charade that would result in most Abrahamic religions calling for one’s death would seem kind of counterproductive. But no, not only does he keep going with that, he speaks in the same tone as his deranged prison letters.

One thing that one might notice about this video is that Chris discovered green screens. He also learned some of the basics of video editing, and used it to edit in clips of his ponderous form gyrating as he sings bastardized Pokémon music. The video eventually degrades into multiple copies of himself onscreen, dancing in nightmarish unison.

If you’re familiar with tabletop RPGs, you’ll probably know what I mean when I say that Chris is like a character that the player gave a bunch of drawbacks during the character creation process in an effort to get some bonus points, but then the player forgot to spend the bonus points before the campaign began, and the player decided to play the character, anyway.

And now the collection of natural threes is back online.

Now, if you haven’t been following along, you might be thinking like Otaku King, and getting the idea that you can help Chris, if you could properly coach him. First, you’d be far from the only person who has had that idea. Second, pay attention to what Chris does near the end of the video, when he points to the puncture wounds in his hands.

Didn’t see them? That’s because they weren’t there.

Now, imagine how delusional that a person has to be that, when they hold their hands in front of their own face, they see a couple of huge wounds that aren’t actually there. Would you really think you can help someone like that?

You might wonder what I think is going to happen with Chris Chan, next. I really don’t know. Him getting off scot free after committing incest, him somehow finding a girl who wouldn’t mind having a boyfriend who committed incest and overlook the fact that he’s Chris Chan, and now he’s apparently returned to the home his mother was living in, so much of it is stuff I wouldn’t have expected.

Who knows, maybe Crystal Chandler will actually happen.

“You told me you’d take responsibility.”

But I’d feel so bad for the kid. Especially if it was a boy, because then Chris might attempt to change his gender. And he might attempt to change it the same way he attempted to change his own.

Some direct sunshine would be nice about now.

UPDATE: If you’re wearing headphones and are up for some more nasal screeching in your left ear ASMR, Chris made another video addressing the claims that he had sex with his mother, and he brought up the girl he was seen with.

If you’re not up for hearing more of him, I don’t blame you. But in summary, he steadfastly denies being in a sexual relationship with anyone in the year 2021, when he was arrested, and specifically denied being intimate with Barbara Chandler.

This is in spite of the fact that, in the very same year, he claimed to be in a relationship with an older woman, and would later admit that it was his own mother in a recorded call with Janke, when he made a completely unprompted confession to someone he thought he could confide in.

His defense is that the recording was spliced by Janke herself, which would have required tools and expertise that would have been unavailable to most college students at the time. Granted, we do live in the age of deepfakes now, and she had a computer professional in her family. And it’s also hard to completely discount the possibility that Chris confessed to a crime he may not have committed.

Also related to Janke, Chris brought up that he is aware that her ambition was to try to convince Chris to end his own life. I find it easy to believe that he came to that realization in hindsight, thanks to the help of people who documented the interactions between the two, which he does have access to. He does have the internet, after all. There’s nothing stopping him from seeing what people are saying about him.

As for the girl Chris has been seen with, we now have a moniker for her: Flutter. Chris called her that because she likes the MLP character, Fluttershy. Chris didn’t go as far as saying that she’s his girlfriend, but considering how close he was with her in photos, it seems likely the case.

Right now, it’s pretty obvious that Chris believes that at least one aspect of his “dimensional merge” has come to pass, and he believes that he’s Thanos-snapped the worst of the people away, leaving the people who are better or at least possess a capacity for changing for the better. That’s one heck of a cope, but there’s some crazy stuff believed by some crazy people.

He still seems to believe that he’s Jesus, but like many people today with similar delusions, he gets some details wrong. He says that Jesus was crucified in Nazareth, apparently thinking Jesus was crucified in the place where Jesus was born. He also believes that Jesus was pierced in the palms of his hands, which is a popular misconception that we can expect from someone whose ideas about Jesus came from popular media. The fact is, the nails would have gone through Jesus’s wrists.

Another false prophet, like so many of his kind, getting things wrong while expecting everyone to take him seriously.

Chris Chan is back, and he’s in damage-control mode. I doubt that things are going to turn out well for him.
