“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Master of puppets, ruler of none

In ancient Norse mythology – specifically, within the Heimskringla, written down in Old Norse by the legendary skald,Snorri Sturluson, some 800 years ago – there is a very interesting section about the Aesir-Vanir War. This epic conflict between the two “classes” of Norse gods, resulted in the eventual union between the two, into a single pantheon residing in Asgard.

The Heimskringla tells a tale of the very first war of the ancient world, in which the two tribes of gods clashed over fundamental values. It was a brutal and terrible war, and in the end, wearied by conflict, both tribes of gods decided to settle things through a peace treaty, and the exchange of hostages. The Aesir gods Hoenir and Mimir went over to the Vanir side, and the Vanir often consulted Hoenir for his seemingly wise counsel.

Over time, however, they noticed that Hoenir could only ever say anything of value when Mimir was around to tell him what to say – in all other cases, his response was something like, “let others decide”, or “let others choose what is best”. When Mimir was not around, Hoenir was a complete fool, who did not have much to say.

The Vanir eventually cottoned on to what they considered a blatant deceit. Enraged, they beheaded Mimir, and sent his severed head back to Asgard. Odin, the lord of all and the father of all the gods (Aesir and Vanir combined), distraught at the loss of a wise counsellor, embalmed the head and cast magic spells over it, so that it would continue to offer him words of wisdom whenever he needed them.

The point of this is not merely to indulge in a foray through the sheer WEIRDNESS of Norse mythology – and, given I have been reading it (in translated form) for over thirty years, I assure you, it can get extremely weird – but to explain something important about domestic politics in the FUSA right now.

The Sock-Puppet In Charge

As I have explained repeatedly in my (more or less) daily voice messages to my Telegram subscribers, the FUSA today does not have an actual President. It does not have a true ruler. Instead, there is a sock-puppet, in the form of a dementia-addled old man, presiding over a collapsing and dying empire.

Brandon is very much the same as the legendary Aesir god Hoenir – he is an utter fool, lost for words without a teleprompter, and completely owned and controlled by others. He does not speak for himself. He simply repeats whatever people tell him.

Age is only a part of the problem. Yes, he is 81 years old – but if you go back and look at videos of Lee Kuan Yew in his 80s, you will notice very quickly how sprightly, how animated, and how extraordinarily intelligent the former Prime Minister of Singapore was. Similarly, if you look at Dr. Thomas Sowell, who is 94 – or, for that matter, William Shatner, who is 93 – you will see men whose bodies only have aged, but whose minds are sharp, vital, and curious.

I am not saying it is common for men over 80 to have strong minds – my own grandfather’s dementia started in his late 70s, and he died at almost 93 as a hollowed-out shell of what he once was – but it is possible.

The true problem is that Brandon was never, ever his own man.

He has ALWAYS been a tool of the globalist elites, for the entirety of his long and dishonourable career. Today, in his dotage, he remains more of a tool than ever, and he is evidently thoroughly controlled by the Obamas, who by many accounts have been waging an internecine war against the Clintons for control over the Daemoncratic Party since 2008.

There is very little, on the surface, to distinguish the Obamas and the Clintons. Both seem to be globalists of the worst kind, and both seem to want unfettered, absolute power. But the Obamas are slightly different. They are ideologues – and, as such, are vastly more dangerous than the utterly amoral and psychopathic Clintons, who have no ideology other than the pursuit of power.

The Obamas do not seek merely to control and corrupt – they seek to define. They mean it when they say America needs a fundamental reshaping – that is, after all, precisely what Odumbass set out to do, and very sadly largely achieved, in his time in office.

In Brandon, it is patently evident that they have the perfect puppet to conduct an Obarmy third term, and that is precisely what they have set about doing.

Backseat Driving

I lived in the FUSA throughout the duration of both Odumbass terms. I watched things get steadily more terrible, as the country declined, infrastructure deteriorated, and Odumbass’s foreign policy proved to be even more catastrophic and wild than Dubya’s – which is saying something.

But… things have gotten immeasurably worse in the past 3 years, despite the fact that Brandon’s supposed Administration is doing exactly the same things that one would expect from a third Obummer term.

Why?

The answer lies in a fundamental reality that goes far beyond politics:

Indirect control of a system is always imperfect.

Imagine trying to drive a car from the backseat, without being able to grasp the steering wheel or pedals directly, and NOT crashing into a tree. That is what is happening in the USA. The car of state is out of control, because there is no actual driver.

Humans are inherently a hierarchical species – pretty Western illusions and myths about “dumbocracy” and “equality” notwithstanding. There has always been, and there will always be, a governing elite. There has always been, and there will always be, the governed. And there has always been, and must always be, a central source of deciding authority.

It does not matter what shape or form that authority takes – whether a body of patricians, as in the Roman Senate, or two kings, as in ancient Sparta, or one King, as in most monarchical systems. There must, ultimately, be a clear, unambiguous decision-maker.

And that decision-maker MUST have both authority and responsibility for action. The two must be equal in size and scope. If they are not, a balancing always takes place – and that balancing is never, ever pleasant or easy.

If we take these arguments as axiomatic – which they are, given the course of human history – then we can come to a simple but important conclusion about what happens when there is no ultimate and clear central authority.

A Ship, an Iceberg, and a Hundred Captains

When we have a situation where there is no singular source of authority, inevitably, we see power centres emerging to fill the vacuum. This, again, is obvious, and we have many examples from recent history proving it.

When the USSR collapsed, for instance, there was no real authority in charge of anything – Boris Yeltsin had just about enough control over the government to order a bowl of borshch for lunch and have it arrive still reasonably hot, but not a whole lot else. The true power lay with the oligarchs – most of them Jewish and avaricious in the extreme – who absolutely plundered Russia’s riches, and who acted as a law unto themselves.

This is precisely what is happening in the FUSA today.

The President is a doddering old man who has no credibility, therefore zero authority, but massive responsibility. Since there is no balance between his responsibility and his actual authority, a balancing is taking place, whereby oligarchs have emerged to take over those power structures that run the US government.

But each of those oligarchs has his own particular vision of how things should work. They have no singular purpose or understanding of what America is. Many of them are not even American – they have NO links whatsoever to the posterity that the American Republic was originally setup to preserve. They have NOTHING in common with the vast majority of the American people.

They are all members of an elite class that went to the same schools, live in the same places, go to the same holiday destinations, and read and listen to the same things. They serve only themselves and their immediate circles of friends and cronies – NOT the American people.

And so, we now see the American ship of state paralysed by indecision, stupidity, incompetence, arrogance, and greed.

All the while, the looming iceberg of imperial collapse sits right ahead. There is no way to avoid it at this very late stage. Even the most jaded observer can see what is coming – the total collapse of the FUSA.

Three hundred and fifty MILLION people are strapped to this hurtling death machine – and so are another BILLION besides them. No one in the FUSA has the wit or the wisdom to stop it.

A Lesson from the Bear

In this respect, the example of Russia’s resurgence is instructive. The USSR collapsed because of its own massive internal contradictions – a socialist, planned economy could never sustain a multilingual, multi-ethnic empire that covered something like a third of the world’s land area. But, once that Frankenstein’s monster split back into its constituent parts, the strongest and most stable of these – Russia – was able to reconstitute itself into a smaller, multi-ethnic nation, united by a common faith, language, history, and interests.

As I have written often on these pages, a nation consists of five dimensions or characteristics, of which, in my opinion, the people of that nation must have at least three in common. These are: race, faith, language, history, and culture – though one can convincingly argue that the last two are the same thing, and can thereby substitute in “culture and interests”, instead.

China has arguably at least four in common, being more than 70% Han in ethnicity, with a history going back some 5,000 years, and with Mandarin being the lingua franca of the entire nation. India is in a trickier position, having perhaps three such characteristics in common. Most of the Eurasian nations are in more or less the same boat – roughly three to four of those characteristics. As far as I can tell, Iran has all five in common, and probably so too does Turkiye.

The FUSA has NONE of these in common any more.

Russia, by contrast, has four of them in common.

It is therefore totally unsurprising that Russia, a nation with less than half the population of the FUSA, is a far stronger nation, economically, politically, morally, psychologically, and spiritually.

It is also totally unsurprising that the Russian government – like the governments of most of the Eurasian powers – has a united purpose and vision behind it. The Putin is an extremely effective technocrat, not merely because of his own sterling personal qualities, but because he leads a government that is in lockstep with the vision that he presents, of a united, strong, free, respected, and independent Russia.

The FUSA’s vision of the world is… well, what, exactly? No one quite knows. No one has a clue, except that it more or less amounts to, “America – F*** YEAH!”. And that’s it.

The Russian experience of total collapse, dissolution, and extreme impoverishment, is but a taste of the Hell-Times that await the inhabitants of the corpse-empire that occupies the footprint of what was once the American nation. Only the Russians have the first clue what awaits America – and, for all their contempt of American so-called “values”, they understand, and are sympathetic, in their own way.

But the collapse that awaits Amerikhastan is going to be far worse than anything in human history, simply by virtue of the fact that the FUSA – and the rest of the Western world – has experienced the largest mass invasion in human history, while sitting atop the largest pile of debt ever recorded. There are HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of people living in what we used to call “the West”, who are NOT Westerners, have NO INTEREST in Western values, and find the entire GloboHomoPaedoPharisatanist charade to be anywhere from irritating to extremely disgusting.

Many of those invaders want to replace Clown World with their own form of a globalist death-cult, called Islam. That is not going to work out for them very well, either – Izzlamick magical thinking never does – but it will inflict unbelievable misery upon those living under its yoke before it, too, collapses. Parts of the West are already Izzlamised no-go zones, replete with everything Izzlam has to offer – severe beatings and abuse of women, rampant paedophilia and extreme sexual abuse of minors, rape, forced conversions, and dhimmi status for any non-Moose-Limbs living in those areas.

Conclusion – The Final Symphony of the Vampire Ball

Going back to the Russian experience, it is worth looking at The Putin’s interview some months ago, in which he said the following:

The full interview was even more revealing, and the Neo-Tsar had even harsher things to say about what the West has become:

He was, and is, correct, of course. The global political and economic dominance of the Western world is coming to an end – via an era of failure and gerontocracy, in which old and feeble men rail uselessly and incoherently into microphones that showcase their dementia and addle-patedness for the entire world to see.

Do not think the Trumpasaur can save you. I still, even now, do not believe he will become President this year – because I have lost all faith in dumbocracy. There is not the least point in voting in a dumbocracy, when the elites simply do not care what the people say, and when the people who count the votes, are the ones who matter.

There is no reason to believe that the God-Emperor has learned very much of anything since his last round at the helm. Perhaps he has – I do not know for sure. I personally like and respect President Trump immensely, but I think the tests confronting him are far greater than any man can overcome. And I believe the Deep State will do everything possible to undermine and destroy him, simply to preserve themselves.

The Derp State is doing precisely that right now, with Brandon. The DURRbate was, in my personal opinion, a carefully constructed Derp State coup, designed to ease Brandon out of power, and to substitute a more useful idiot in his place. The sock-puppet has outlived his usefulness – but, because there is no one central authority in charge, no one quite knows what to do to replace him.

This paralysis can only ever end in collapse. The FUSA is utterly discredited on the world stage. Its economic and financial hegemony is ending as the world turns decisively away from the dollar, and toward trade in national currencies. Its political and moral authority is gone, thanks to the FUSA’s endless and pointless wars which have left MILLIONS dead, displaced, and broken.

The invasion of Europe happened because of American-led interventions in Libya and Syria. The war in Ukraine has killed close to a MILLION people now, and it was entirely an American construct. The Forever Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq achieved precisely DICK.

Meanwhile, American cities are crumbling, the infrastructure no longer works, and tent cities full of the homeless are everywhere. The streets of the once-great cities of New York and San Francisco are littered with human debris and their by-products. People are no longer safe in their own homes. There is no hope for their children to live a decent life.

All of these things point to a terrible collapse. It is inevitable. And all of this happened because Americans – whom I personally actually like and respect – forgot the sage wisdom of Benjamin Franklin:

  1. furor kek tonicus ( i demand that Biden disavow his treasonous endorsement of "Let's go, Brandon" )

    for whatever reason, i’m not seeing anything where the Putin videos are supposed to be. it’s not uncommon for you to have links to videos which are prohibited in Americastan, but there’s usually an error message to that effect when that’s the case.

    here, i see nothing but the white background.

    ps – as an aside to the Neil Pervy Gaiman thing lately in the news, it turns out that David Eddings was pretty much as bad as MZB.

    i believe i tried to read something by Eddings once, and didn’t get very far into it. so beyond saying that Eddings never did anything for me i can’t comment on his books.

      That should be fixed now. Rumble embeds tend to be a bit temperamental when I used them directly, so I usually use HTML blocks to do them – but that apparently doesn’t work very well anymore either.
