Amid the darkness, in the despair of too much knowing and the realisation that no one was coming to save us until Jesus comes back, the memes helped to make it more bearable. Laughing into the Abyss as we got banned on yet another social media account.

Memes have done more than essays or long-form videos or stirring orations to change the culture. Seeing Rose, for example, exposed as the true villain of the Titanic: sleeping around on her devoted suitor; letting the guy she shagged die of hyperthermia when she could have helped him up our of the water; hiding a priceless jewel after she was rescued; then throwing said priceless jewel into the sea for reasons instead of passing it down to her grandkids.

She and Jenny from Forrest Gump are the true movie villains, and millions of people have come to understand that through shoddy images and text chucked together on Paint.

The further you go down the rabbit hole, of course, the more you learn about who probably had the Titanic sunk and why. There are memes for that, too.

I’ve been thinking about the Titanic quite a bit recently, because I think it’s a perfect illustration for where industrial modernity is at right now. Israel’s attack on Iran on February 28 was the iceberg moment. We’re still above the water, but it’s just a matter of time.

By ‘industrial modernity’, I mean the ultra-connected material economy that sits invisibly underneath the financial casino that normies think of as ‘the economy’, if they think of it at all.

The material economy, as people around the world are about to be harshly reminded, is the real economy. The debt-based financial system built upon it is just fakery that generates claims upon the material economy via debt. Number go up is only meaningful to people because they assess it against what material resources that number could be used to claim. When Boomers became paper gazillionaires from land price inflation, they felt rich. The number they saw on realestate dot com showed them how many more new cruises and convertibles they could then potentially consume with it.

By attacking Iran and guaranteeing that Middle Eastern oil production, processing, and distribution is offline for the foreseeable future, the Zionists have ensured that the world will soon begin to run out of the diesel, bunker fuel, industrial lubricants, chemical fertilisers, and innumerable derivative products that our way of life depends upon.

We’re talking plastics; food packaging; water pipes (PVC); electrical wire insulation; tyres; synthetic clothing (polyester); foam mattresses; furniture cushions; detergents; shampoo; toothpaste; pharmaceuticals; paints; adhesives; fertilisers; pesticides; electronic device casings; medical plastics (IV bags, syringes); synthetic rubber seals and gaskets; industrial lubricants. For starters.

It’s impossible to overstate the extent to which the material economy that we rely upon for our financial economy to appear buoyant in turn relies upon the magical rock juice that God, hilariously, decided to put under the Muslims.

The Israeli attack was launched on February 28. We’re now at the start of June. The Australian government has managed, via chicanery and the release of strategic reserves around the world, to postpone the day of reckoning. But that day is coming.

There will be no lifeboats for us. The luxury cruise liner of easy consumerism is going down to the bottom of the ocean, never to sail again. That era is over. Permanently.

Nowhere in the world can provide oil of the type and ease of extraction that the Persian Gulf can, and there is no way oil tankers get marine insurance affordably in the future to sail there. Globalism is dead. Consumerism is dead. The world is about to begin a slow process of changing back to what it was before the combustion engine and the modern petrochemical industry made us believe that history had ended.

Unlike the guests on the Titanic, the normies have no idea what is about to become apparent. It won’t be immediate mass starvation, at least not in countries like Australia. But it will be rough. We saw how normies freaked out when they couldn’t get their Sorbent back in 2020. When diesel begins to be rationed, the cargo ships stop arriving, and the crop shortages lead to epic food inflation next year, they’re going to lose their minds. Who will they turn on? Time will tell. The elites no doubt have a cover story scheme ready to roll out so the masses don’t think too hard about why Australia was in such a vulnerable position in the first place.

The normies are still sitting at the bar, enjoying the music, thinking about dinner. Let them. The Titanic is famous because, sinking on the eve of World War I, it is an emblem of an elegant, aristocratic, European way of life that never came back fully again after 1918. Our way of life today has no elegance to it, no innate superiority or refinement. It is degraded and degrading. But it is comfortable, and that is likely what people will miss about it once it’s gone.

The elites who have created this calamitous situation have known for a long time that it was inevitable. They will have their boltholes, their haciendas, and their private retreats. They will have their lifeboats.

I don’t envy them. They will not survive long term once all of humanity is set free from the debt system that enslaves and corrupts us. They probably think AI and robots will save them. They won’t.

I can’t wait for the future. Let the decadent edifice of this rotten system sink into the icy waters. The world we are entering will be harsh and cruel and cold, but it will be ours.

It will not be theirs.

My apologies for my inconsistent posting recently, dear reader. The truth is that I have spent the last three years working on a project that only now is coming to fruition. I’ve been researching and writing a book on Biblical cosmology that is now published on Amazon (here if you’re in Australia and here if you’re in North America).

I’ve been writing commentary now for 10 years and the reality is I’m not very good at it. It requires a skillset that I do not fully possess. My training and experience are in education, and given that the cabal that certainly don’t rule Western countries has made it impossible for me to work in my profession ever again, I’ve come to accept that the only viable future for me professionally is as an independent lecturer.

I’m a teacher, not a ‘content creator’, and certainly not a journalist. In the coming months, I will be launching an online course that will be free to Substack subscribers. The course is called Introduction to Biblical Cosmology, and in it I will be teaching about the cosmological worldview within which the Bible was written and read during the time of the early church.

If you’re wanting to learn how to read the Bible the way it was written, keep an eye out. This will be my last ‘blog’ post. In the future I’ll use this site to post material to support my teaching videos. I might even figure out how to get a Substack podcast going.

I wish to thank all of you who have taken the time to read my articles and send donations over the last ten years. It’s sure been a trip.

It is no surprise that Berkeley, California has become the scene of another significant battle in the culture war which has erupted across America in recent months. Berkeley is a bastion of the American neo-Marxist left and is at the heart of their 60’s mythology. Last weekend though, for the first time in living memory, the totalitarian American left was defeated on their home turf.

The motley assortment of anti-leftists who came to Berkeley to attend a free speech event organized by independent journalist Lauren Southern were able to push Antifa back despite the actions of the Berkeley Police Department. According to Southern, the Berkeley police disarmed the free speech marchers while allowing the black-clad Antifa domestic terrorists to use M-80 explosives, pepper spray and teargas. As soon as Antifa became violent, the Berkeley police stood down and retreated away from the melee, leaving the free speech marchers dangerously exposed.

The blast from the 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles, which President Trump ordered to strike the al-Shayrat airfield in Syria on Thursday, has since reverberated around the world. Many Americans are still waiting for the smoke to clear, to make sense of exactly what happened and why.

President Trump and his Secretary of State Rex Tillerson are unanimous in their conviction that the regime of Bashar al-Assad used chemical weapons on his own people, thus justifying the attack. Everyday Americans are rightly skeptical when it comes to weapons of mass destruction being used to justify a possible war. We’ve heard it before.

Fakery has been everywhere in the news in 2017. From the increasingly desperate and still unproven accusations by the establishment media that President Trump is a Manchurian candidate, to the alarming and verifiable evidence that senior Democrats have close financial links to foreign powers, everyday Americans are unsure what is real and what is not at the moment. Central to this surreal political atmosphere is the loss of faith by the American people in the establishment media, or what many are now calling the real ‘fake news’.

Just as everyday Americans are now seeing through the fake news that is put forth by the media wing of the Democrat establishment, we are also now aware of the fakery at the heart of the Democratic Party itself.

The startling evidence contained in the Vault 7 CIA data dump by WikiLeaks confirms a pattern of evidence that has been piling up regarding the US intelligence establishment. There are rogue elements within the US intelligence agencies who seem to operate as a law unto themselves, even believing that they can determine who holds the presidency.

The constant and baseless narrative put forward in the media that President Trump is a Russian plant is part of this agenda. It is being driven by false intelligence and phony evidence sold to the public via the establishment media. It is not journalism. It is a centrally coordinated propaganda campaign carried out as part of a nefarious political agenda to destroy a presidency.

To our dismay, we are now seeing this very same pattern occur here in the homeland. Americans are being bombarded with propaganda against the president by the mainstream media and Hollywood celebrities, while shadowy forces work behind the scenes to orchestrate events.

Traditionally presidents keep a low profile after they move out of the White House. They go back to their home state, take up hobbies and perhaps pen their memoir to put forward their version of events. It’s a time to be gracious and keep a low profile so the new president can take ownership of the Oval Office.

As with many other fine traditions which uphold the stability of the Republic, former President Obama is refusing to go quietly. It seems he just can’t stand to be away from the spotlight.

Not only is the former president releasing statements on President Trump’s policies through a spokesperson and expressing approval of the riots against President Trump by violent leftists, he is also taking press along to cover his kitesurfing holiday with billionaire Richard Branson.

President Trump’s flurry of activity since taking office has been breathtaking to behold. Like no president before him, Trump is using the power of the presidential pen to roll back the worst excesses of the Obama years and bring the focus of government back to what is in the interests of the American people.

Trump’s unilateral use of executive power is outraging liberals, of course. Their howls of anguish are a delight to the ears of right-thinking Americans. In a beautiful irony of history, it was the left who created the imperial presidency that Trump is now wielding to such devastating effect against their neo-Marxist globalist agenda.

What everyday Americans had looked forward to was the end of that bitter presidential campaign so we could get on with the business of making America great again. Sadly, that was not to be. The liberal establishment is making sure that the bitterness, division and hostility of the election carry forward into President Trump’s first term.

Today is a day of great jubilation and celebration for us Americans who have suffered silently under the tyranny of financial repression, the suffocation of political correctness and the treachery of globalization for far too long. No matter what President Trump does during his first term, change is coming. That should give all of us hope that we can actually believe in this time.

Unlike previous elections in living memory, however, the losing side has not capitulated. They have not retreated to lick their wounds or re-evaluate their positions. They are doubling-down. The grieving process the neo-Marxist left in America is going through is not one that will lead to insight and growth. Instead, liberals are descending into a spiral of rabid emotionalism due to their obsessive belief that they have been personally violated by the election of President Trump.

In a new low this week even for the liberal media, BuzzFeed, CNN and other establishment outlets have published unfounded and unsupported fake news about President-elect Trump’s ties to Russia. It is clear that this scandalous hack job was timed in order to derail the president-elect’s first press conference since the election. This agenda was further revealed by the outrageous conduct of CNN’s Jim Acosta during the press conference, repeatedly interrupting and shouting at the president-elect while he was speaking. Never before has a president-elect been spoken to in this way in such a public forum.

Jim should be grateful for the First Amendment. There are very few countries in the world in which such disrespectful impudence would be tolerated.

Last Wednesday oligarch George Soros wrote an opinion piece for Project Syndicate, a website his Open Society Foundation co-funds. In the article, entitled ‘Open Society Needs Defending,’ Mr. Soros laments that his beloved open societies project is in crisis around the world. According to Mr. Soros, our future is threatened by the rise of so-called closed societies – ‘fascist dictatorships’ and ‘mafia states’. Given that President-elect Trump is mentioned by name in the first sentence, the reference to his recent election victory is clear.

For a month and a half now, the American left have been carrying on a hysterical tantrum the likes of which has never been seen in this country. Everyday Americans have been shocked and outraged at the blatant sense of political entitlement liberals are displaying. It is clear to everyone that something is changing profoundly in America as a result of President-elect Donald Trump winning the White House.

All of a sudden across the nation citizens are being warned by the media to avoid a dangerous threat to democracy and our way of life. It is not weapons of mass destruction or ISIS or Vladimir Putin that we must be frightened of this time, although Russia plays a role. The latest threat to our peace and safety is something called ‘fake news’.

The New York Times has published a piece linking fake news to the gunman who marched into Comet Ping Pong pizza restaurant in Washington, D. C. last week with a gun, let everyone walk out and then oddly waited for arrest. The piece even hints at the spread of fascist ideas across America, with ‘liberals across the country asking how a nation of millions could be marching to such a suspect drumbeat’. Terrifying stuff.

Evidence has been emerging over the past week that the anti-Trump protests and riots disrupting cities across America are not spontaneous or grassroots in their origin. It has come to light rather that these sometimes violent and disruptive demonstrations are being organized by a nationwide network of non-profit organizations with links to billionaire financier George Soros.

Ads posted by Soros-linked liberal groups have been appearing on Craigslist sites across the nation offering payment to participate in the anti-Trump protests. President-elect Trump himself stated during his interview with 60 Minutes that professional protesters were behind the riots.

Across America, outraged liberals have taken to the streets to block traffic, cause mayhem and destroy property because their candidate lost the presidential election. In Los Angeles leftists shut down the 101 Freeway, while in Oakland protestors shouted obscenities in Spanish while smashing windows and starting fires.

This liberal tantrum is being driven by ideology as much as by rage at the possibility that someone might take their government handouts away. This applies as much to the protestors themselves as the financial oligarchs who usually fund their operations.

Time magazine this week has published an article entitled “Hillary Clinton’s Emailgate is an Attack on Women” by Professor Emerita of Linguistics Robin Lakoff from the University of California, Berkeley. In the article Professor Lakoff argues that the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s improper use of an unsecured personal email server is being driven not by concern for the law or national security, but is rather an attack on ‘public communication by a woman’.

Professor Lakoff thunders that she is mad because she is scared for all women in America. Apparently the women of America are the real target of the investigation.

Hillary Clinton shocked America during the third presidential debate with claims that her opponent Donald Trump is an agent for Russian President Vladimir Putin. Given the increasingly hostile anti-Russian rhetoric coming from the Obama White House, the establishment media and Clinton herself, this is a particularly alarming accusation.

To have a presidential nominee accuse her opponent of treason during a presidential debate was deeply disturbing. Around the world people have been shocked.

Every so often in history a man comes along who overthrows a corrupt elite and resets the political establishment. We live in such a time. In our time that man is Donald Trump.

Establishment politicians, media and academics are now all united against Trump’s presidency. They are also all revealed as being more interested in protecting their power and their reputations than in principles, truth or serving the people. The rage of the elites against Trump is so obvious it’s shocking. They know that if Trump becomes president they face exposure. What the public has already seen through the leaked emails and videos has been enough to make many of us sick. What else will be exposed to the public should Trump become president?
