Thirty Per Hour

Tags

, ,

Remember all the retarded hand-wringing over the prospects of paying people a $15/hour minimum wage? Remember me saying that wasn’t nearly high enough? Remember the mean old math? Eh?

It’s still not high enough, but IBT reports Costco is about to take a strong step in the right direction by raising US hourly wages to over $30 per hour.

Why’s it not high enough? Math. If labor costs had kept pace – I tire or rehashing this over and over – with other large ticket items (homes, education, medical, etc.), then the current minimum wage would be $40+ per hour. And the overall average salary would be in the $350,000 per year. Instead, we have pushed the mass financialization envelope past the breaking point. $30 will help. But the late increase (by the one company alone) reflects the truth that the last thing that ever increases under this evil and doomed system is pay for ordinary people. Still, very good on Costco and maybe send them some business.

Future solution: 1) real money; 2) cancel the (fake) debts, and; 3) burn the usury-mongers and their pet fanatics and enablers.

Horrendous Numbers

Tags

,

I loosely but regularly follow the Gaza death and injury tallies provided by the PC. With the ceasefire holding for the most part, I had assumed or hoped that as missing persons (aka, the unaccounted for dead) were found, their number would drop towards zero as the number of known deaths rose in accordance. I did not expect this revision:

“Killed” soared over the weekend and “missing” increased as well. It’s safe to assume 99% of the missing are dead too, likely killed martially. So, as-is now, the total of known kinetic deaths is almost 76,000. It is possible health authorities are factoring in ancillary deaths (disease and starvation directly attributed to the conflict). We’ll have to see what’s announced. Whether or not that’s the case, the known and/or suspected total dead in the Gazacaust is steadily rising towards or in conjunction with the estimate factors laid out last summer by the Lancet. 76,000 dead is approximately 4% of the Gaza population. Increased by a factor or 4-5, it could easily be 15-20%.

Anyone who tells you the zionists and yankees have not committed genocide against the Palestinians is a wicked, stupid, reality-denying, math-challenged, demon-possessed fool.

UPDATE REVISION: It appears someone perhaps fat fingered the calculator the other day. Back in line with last week now, though still awful.

UPDATE: they factored in the missing:

A Few Things…

Howdy, blog loyalists,

One may recall that long ago, this place was a [dot]com. Then I grew lazy, pirates stole mah domain, and we became a lowly [dot]me. After a ten-year wait, I have reconquered the [dot]com! It links back here for now, as does the address for my new … AUTHOR WEBSITE! That site, while technically “live”, is currently under construction: Coming soon and you’ll read all about it here first.

For now http://www.perrinlovett.com = http://www.perrinlovett.me. The new duality (or something else?) has caused a spike in the otherwise sad and anemic traffic around here over the past few days.

I was about to announce something else. Something BIG. In fact, I was going to do it on Friday, but Mr. Publisher Man told me to hold off on amateur pronouncements as officialdom looms large and imminent. Friends, I have a new novel coming soon. It’s my first Christian romance work, and it’s something else. It is unlike any such book you’ve read before and utterly unlike anything you’ve ever read by me. The wait will be worth it.

Let’s see… There’s also this: I now have a (slowly developing) Telegram channel:

https://t.me/perrinlovettbooks

I’ll add more, and add a permanent link here, when I figure out how it works. Please feel free to join now, just don’t expect too much for a short while. I may at some point add a presence at Dzen or VK or something similar, but I had no plans for anything on “X”, Facebot, or any other mainstream site. Unless, that is, I get an agent and the agent forcibly sets something up and runs it. (I’m loosely, listlessly agent shopping – mainly for foreign and film rights – for what that’s worth.)

That’ll do for now, and I am dying to discuss the new book. It’s already been described as “brilliant … a beautiful portrayal,” “…profound, sweet, and also promoting holiness,” and “Fantastic … the best thing you’ve ever written.” She is not from around here.

Happy Sunday,

Perrin

“Democracy” in Syria

Tags

,

Thank goodness that the dictator was deposed in Damascus! Now the people of Syria are free to not vote for their future. Ahmed al-Sharaa has declared himself Head Leader Guy In Charge and abolished the constitution. This is what democracy looks like, kids. This is the application of the rules-based international disorder. Remember, only authoritarian countries like Russia and Iran bother with trivial things like elections and laws.

International Declaration on the Protection of Family

Konstantin Malofeev posted some links on the Tellygramz. If you are in anyway interested in helping propagate and continue cizilization, then this material might be of interest to you: an international coalition of parties, perhaps led by the Russian Federation, who want to defend, promote, and grow marriage, families, and children.

Crazy Medicine

In addition to causing heart attacks, strokes, palsy, cancer, and “Covid”, the fake vaccines also cause or worsen psychiatric disorders. (JUST! what ‘Murika needs!)

In conclusion, this population-based cohort study revealed that COVID-19 vaccination differentially affects occurrences of psychiatric disorders. It increased the risks of depression, anxiety, dissociative, stress-related, and somatoform disorders, and sleep disorders while reducing the incidence and risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Our findings suggested that the relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and mental illness may be underestimated along with the complexity of its impact on mental health. Thus, close observation and special caution are necessary for administering additional COVID-19 vaccinations to populations vulnerable to psychiatric AEs.

Given all of this, and that we now know fake vaccines cause children to become autistic and, in some cases, gay, the “special caution” to be applied is refusing any and all of these demonic poisons for oneself and for one’s children. Otherwise, one will trust science to harm or kill.

Brace Yourselves for Disappointment

José Niño provides an unfiltered assessment of the original Trumpening and Trump 2.0.

Donald Trump vowed to end the NATO-funded proxy war in Ukraine in 24 hours. However, after threatening to further sanction Russia if it did not enter a negotiated settlement with Ukraine, Trump appears to be fine with continuing to escalate tensions with Russia. As I’ve previously documented, Trump’s track record on Russia is quite hawkish, contrary to media depictions of him as a Russian puppet. All things considered, Russo-American relations will likely remain tense.

With respect to the Middle East, Trump remains committed to defending Israel. Despite a ceasefire reached between the Israelis and Hamas, Trump has already given the green light to sending Israel thousands of 2,000-pound bombs and has apparently been in talks with Israel to resettle Palestinians into other countries such as Egypt and Jordan — ethnic cleansing by another name.

Trump’s team has also been in talks to expand the Abraham Accords, with a particular focus on normalizing relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia. Seeing through the rosy talk about heightened cooperation and moving towards a bright future, the Abraham Accords are merely a scheme to build an anti-Iran balancing coalition. Though Israel’s live-streamed genocide of the Palestinians since October 7 has horrified the Arab Street, thus making Gulf Arab leaders leery of deepening ties with the Jewish State. Nevertheless, the gaggle of neocons and Israel Firsters surrounding Trump makes a potential conflict with Iran a not-so far-fetched prospect in the next few years.

On immigration, Trump has been a mixed bag. On Day 1 he issued an executive order to get rid of birthright citizenship. Unfortunately, this measure will be tied up in the courts as a federal judge in Washington state recently blocked Trump’s order. This issue will be litigated in the courts for some time before the Supreme Court finally rules on the matter.

Read the whole thing. While it’s good to keep the hope alive, there comes a time when realism trumps fantasy and hype. Trump might be the best ‘Murica has left, but he would have been better suited for the America of 1960 or 1980. Time will tell but it looks like the writing is on the wall.

Spring Cleaning?

Donald Trumpstein appears to have followed up on Miss Lindsey’s “level the place” hiss. DJT47 wants to “clean out the whole place,” dispersing genocide survivors anywhere else but their home for thousands of years. Andrei Martyanov has more:

… the guy is NYC real estate shyster who is very … transactional.

US President Donald Trump has suggested that neighboring Arab countries should take in Palestinian refugees and “clean out” the embattled Gaza Strip. Speaking to journalists aboard Air Force One on Saturday, Trump said that he spoke to King Abdullah II of Jordan over the war and was planning to speak with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi on Sunday. “I’d like Egypt to take people, and I’d like Jordan to take people,” Trump said. “You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, we just clean out that whole thing. It’s a real mess.” “It’s literally a demolition site right now. Almost everything’s demolished, and people are dying there,” he added. “So, I’d rather get involved with some of the Arab nations, and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace for a change,” Trump told reporters. Both Egypt and Jordan have rejected the idea of displacing Palestinians from Gaza.

Ah yes, also the lifting of the ban on 2,000-pound bombs’ use by IDF. You see, applied geopolitics is easy. Obviously ethnic cleansing is not a crime against humanity but merely a real estate transaction.

Middle East Eye has even more on this ongoing war crime and genocide.

And just what has “Israel” done with all those 2,000 pound yankee bombs? Why, in addition to slaughtering 50-300,000 poor people, they’d tried hard to eradicate Christianity and Islam.

Some 814 of 1,245 mosques in the Gaza Strip have been destroyed, another 148 partially damaged, and all three of the strip’s churches ravaged. Those are the stark conclusions reached by Gaza’s Ministry of Religious Affairs on the eve of the one-year anniversary of the Gaza war, which has become the deadliest chapter in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict since 1948.

Perhaps now would be a good time for some evangelical conservative to laud the virtues of Judeo-“Christianity”!

The good news is that the good Gazans aren’t cooperating in their displacement. More than one million of them have already returned home, even as most of them have no homes. They ain’t being cleaned out, Donnie.

Many thanks to Professor Dugin and Karaamath Baabullah for translating some of my rambling into Indonesian. It’s the big Dugin review and educational lede, posted at the 4PT.

Perrin Lovett

Awalnya saya membayangkan artikel ini sebagai ulasan lima buku yang dipilih secara acak oleh Profesor Rusia yang terhormat Alexander Dugin. Namun, karena pengalaman saya dengan survei massal terkadang terbukti tidak jelas, dengan saya merasa seperti saya mengabaikan seseorang atau sebagian dari analisis, saya memutuskan untuk mengambil pendekatan yang sedikit berbeda. Oleh karena itu, di sini saya sangat merekomendasikan serangkaian buku karya Dugin, tentang Dugin, atau yang terkait dengan Dugin. Setelah diskusi singkat tentang teori, saya kemudian fokus pada satu karya tertentu, The Great Awakening vs. The Great Reset, sebuah buku yang berpusat pada aspek kehidupan dan masyarakat (pasca)modern yang lebih dapat ditindaklanjuti. Banyak orang, terutama orang-orang di Barat, menyukai orientasi dan contoh langsung. Meskipun proyek khusus tersebut memiliki karakter khas Rusia, proyek tersebut menyangkut kebutuhan universal, sehingga menjadikannya minat yang inspiratif bagi banyak pihak di seluruh dunia. Saya pikir akan sangat berharga untuk mempertimbangkan apa yang terjadi di Moskow jika seseorang ingin memperbaiki sistem serupa di tempat lain.

Lima buku Dugin adalah The Fourth Political Theory, The Rise Of The Fourth Political Theory, Political Platonism, Ethnosociology, dan The Great Awakening vs. The Great Reset. Semua kutipan saya di sini berasal dari edisi digital EPUB yang diterbitkan oleh Arktos; bibliografi lengkap tersedia di bagian akhir.

For literary reasons I’ve lately been updating the short bio. I honestly can’t recall now how many languages this makes. Ergo, I’m saying something like, “roughly a dozen.”

Terima kasih, teman-teman!

The Costs of Scholasticide

Tags

, ,

The damage to the Palestinian future is unbelievable. Here’s an updated tally on some of it concerning education in Gaza.

Gaza’s Education Ministry has released a new report on the devastating impact of Israel’s genocidal war on students and educational institutions in the besieged Palestinian territory.

The Gaza ministry said on Thursday that more than 15,000 school-aged children have been killed or gone missing during the regime’s brutal offensive on Gaza.

It added that 95 percent of Gaza’s schools and educational facilities have been directly hit, with 85 percent of them being knocked completely or partially out of service.

According to the report, more than 800 education sector workers have been killed or went missing and 50,000 students have been injured.

In addition, over 140 academic and administrative facilities have been destroyed.

The ministry said Gaza’s education sector has incurred more than $3 billion in losses due to Israel’s attacks.

More than 38,000 Palestinian children have been orphaned by Israel’s war on the Gaza Strip since October 2023, a health ministry official said on Thursday.

And again, that damage has been inflicted upon a population that prides itself on legitimately educating children as opposed to whatever buzzword BS the GAE is hooked on at present. As I recently remarked on one of Dr. Marwa Osman’s Telegram posts, the rebuilding costs will probably be higher than estimated though the timeframe will be shorter. But for those who are responsible for this evil, there will literally be hell to pay – permanent cost for all time. If you knowingly and willingly “stand with ‘Israel'”, then you will likely stand with it before the White Throne of Judgement.
