As he is racially Han Chinese, Gordon Chang has a small layer of protection from the white woke, and can give strong critiques of China. Thus, he slams the Biden regime’s present attempt to normalise relationships with communist China, for he asks, how can this be done when China has declared that the US is its enemy that it intends to destroy? Further, the Chinese regime is already acting as if it is a war with the US.

Rather than the US merely sitting back and allowing the communist dragon to grow to unstoppable strength, Chang proses that in the first instance financial war be conducted upon China: “The Secretary of the Treasury, for instance, can designate, pursuant to Section 311 of the USA PATRIOT Act, Chinese banks to be of "primary money laundering concern." Designated banks can no longer clear dollar transactions through New York, where every dollar transaction clears.

Dr Naomi Wolf has observed that language is being changed throughout the West, and the changes are not for the benefit of ease of communication, or to improve the language, but are political modifications designed to suppress individual freedom. The changes are coming from the top down, instigated by the globalist elite, but filtered down for local oppression by neo-Marxist ideologies in the education system. For humans, being above all else language using creatures, thought is highly influenced by language, some would argue, determined by language. Thus, if one wants to shape human thinking, changing the language patterns would have a major impact towards achieving this goal.

Thus, during the Covid plandemic, it was necessary for the technocrats to over-rule long standing medical ethical principles of individual autonomy, and this was done through inundating the public with “social,” really socialist concepts such as “social distancing,” “public health,” “public safety,” and the like. These concepts did exist in the Western lexicon, but were nor regarded as trumping individual liberty, except in the most severe circumstances, such as a plague like the black Death, and maybe not even then. Certainly not for a disease such as Covid, that had for the majority of people a 99 percent or more survival rate. Changing the language game made it easier to impose the same lockdown regime that communist China was oppressing its people with.

The same rules do not appear in the English language, but in French and some other languages, all nouns are either masculine and feminine. The written endings of nouns, adjectives and verbs reflect the gender of the object or person who is speaking. When a noun involves both men and women, the default spelling is in the masculine in accordance with the long-taught rule: “Masculine always wins.” This has greatly upset French feminists, and for years they have campaigned for language reform, as especially for the French, language is very much part of the social construction of reality. And now we have the non-binary brigade and transgenders, rejecting the basic categories, or so they think.

Former Liberal prime mister, Tony Abbott has hammered the Labor government’s net zero agenda as impossible. Back in 2009 he was more colourful with his turn of phrase saying that the climate change alarmist position was “absolute crap,” which is a bit rough, but true. Abbott predicted that the renewable energy targets were too unrealistic to be met by 2050. He said at the launch of an Institute of Public Affairs report on Australian energy security, “The climate cult will eventually be discredited, I just hope we don’t have to endure energy catastrophe, before that happens.” Yet with the shutting down of coal-fired   power stations, and following Europe down the road of highly uncertain solar and wind energy, that could very well be Australia’s short-term fate.

Abbott is spot on about the impossibility of the Labor zero net goals which would involve “in the words of the incoming energy minister, the construction of 22,000 solar panels every day, and the erection of 14 large wind turbines every month for eight years, plus the construction of up to 10,000 kilometers of new transmission lines.”

At this stage we do not know if the Middle East conflict will develop into a full-on regional war, or even World War III. What we do know is that 31 percent of the world’s oil comes from the Middle East, and continued conflict will push up the price of oil. The World Bank has said that if the conflict is protracted “In a ‘large disruption’ scenario – comparable to the Arab oil embargo of 1973 – the global oil supply would shrink by six million to eight million barrels per day and prices could go up by 56 per cent to 75 per cent, or $140 (£115.51) to $157 (£129.53) a barrel, according to the report.

Estimates vary, and are uncertain as the future extent of the conflict is presently unpredictable, but oil could reach US $ 300 a barrel. That would be catastrophic for food production, transport, and almost very aspect of the modern economy. There is already a food price crisis across the West, including in Australia, but we have perhaps not seen anything yet.

Recently Elon Musk made another punchy tweet where he said, responding to a Free Press.com that people are waking up from woke, or what used to be called political correctness. The context is upon the Hamas massacres and the aftermath. The idea is that this is all going to kick onto fundamental political change. But, looked at from the perspective of sociology, this is most unlikely in the short term, as the Left has a fundamental death grip upon Western society, and as was seen in the Voice referendum, the globalist corporates are firmly in line with woke agendas so long as these serve the interests of global capital. With the Voice referendum we were lucky, but the early stages did not look good for the No side, and inadequacies in the Yes campaign led to defeat. But, it could have been different, and next time, just like with the 2016 election of Donald Trump, the elites will be more careful.

So, while there is clear evidence of cracks appearing in the citadel of Leftism, there is still a long and hard battle ahead.

Tucker Carlson has recently put his finger on the real issue that should be concerning us about the present Middle East conflict; that these wars produce masses of refugees; in the case of Gaza maybe millions, and the immigration mad globalists and Leftists in the West want them all in the West. The problem here is exactly as Tucker says, this will be importing into each country massive conflicts, for the issues being played out in the Middle East will get reworked in the host countries. The true wages of the cult of refugeeism will be seen, and it already looks like it could be worse than the events of Europe in 2015.

Dr William Makis, who has a substack documenting cases of people dying suddenly, presumably from the Covid vax, has been diagnosing cancer cases in his career. However, he has stated that in his professional opinion he has never seen the likes of young people in their 20s, 30s and 40s develop “turbo cancers,” that are super-aggressive and often do not respond to conventional treatments: "I've never seen stage four breast cancers presenting in women in their 20s. I've never seen stage four colon cancers presenting in men and women in their 20s [and] 30s. Leukemias that will kill you in a matter of days or even hours after diagnosis. Lymphomas that, again, kill you in a matter of months." This is also impacting upon doctors who had to be fully vaxxed to practice, and Dr Makis has given extensive documentation of this at his substack, listing young doctors who have died of these radical cancers.

The cancer issue in but one conjectured aspect of the adverse effects of the Covid vaxxes in terms of a kill rate. Other professionals such as Dr. Peter McCullough has focussed on cardiac issues. There is no seeming end to this, so the Covid vax issue remains relevant as long as people die, or are ill.

Since the conclusion of the Covid lockdowns, there have been many studies showing that these draconian restrictions of freedom did nothing to stop the spread of Covid-19, although these studies are typically ignored by our health authorities, who are still holding the line that everything they said and did as correct, such as the vaccines prevented transmission.

In this context it is interesting to see the mainstream media starting to catch up. A recent article at the New York Mag.com makes the case that the lockdowns were a giant experiment, that, as was most dramatically seen in communist China, failed. With no substantial scientific evidence, most of the West, with the exception of some places such as Sweden, followed the communist Chinese line, one endorsed by the equally communist World Health Organization. The results all-round were a disaster for individuals and small business, ranging from suicides, learning defects in small children, to bankruptcies of small businesses.

Polish MEP Jacek Saryusz-Wolski has warned that the European Union is set to become even more tyrannical, and is morphing into a superstate which will completely erode what remains of the national sovereignty of the member states. The new matter of concern is the resolution adopted by the European Parliament’s Constitutional Affairs Committee on October 25 relating to treaty arrangements drafted by the  Verhofstadt Group, a team led by the globalist Guy Verhofstadt. It does not matter if one does not know of him, for he is just like the many other globalists on the political scene.

Christopher Roach was written a powerful piece debunking the mythology of immigration, from a US perspective, but which can be generalised to the West. The piece is interesting as he does not hold back, as conservatives usually do. In particular he observes that the US Gen Z, the product of mass immigration, is majority non-white, and basically anti-West, as recent protests have shown. Contrary to the ideology of assimilation, the children of the migrants to the US from the Third World, have revived their parents’ culture in a bid to obtain an authentic identity. They may also regard the traditional American and Western culture as a form of imperialism, and see the need to oppose it, and replace it with a culture of their own making. And that is what they are doing now, creating a new non-white future.

In general Roach dismisses the mantra that diversity from immigration is “our greatest strength.” No, this ignores low IQs, crime and unemployment, while not characteristic of all migrants to the US, is found in many. Others are solely interested in their own economic gain, and have no care for traditions. He concludes: “Far from making us stronger, immigration policy has created a political and cultural monster that neither party can now control.”

John Howard, while being seen as a soft critic of multiculturalism, and who once was in a debate that the level of Asian immigration to Australia was too high, began the mass intake of Asian elites: The Howard Legacy: Displacement of Traditional Australia from the Professional and Managerial Classes by Peter Wilkinson. Now he is saying in the wake of the Middle East situation, and mass protests in the West, that UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman's assertion that multiculturalism has “failed” in the Western world, may be correct. He believes that migrants need to integrate to the existing culture.

It does not surprise me to read that the UK police are not investigating hate crimes against whites, according to the Institute of Economic Affairs. You see the time that that police would devote to investigating real crimes, is now spent following up whites who criticise Islam or make comments on social media about transgenders and other protected groups. The IEA’s head of cultural affairs Marc Glendening, who wrote the report, said: ““British democracy faces an existential threat from those seeking to silence debate.” “This is the result of the emergence of a ‘culture control left’ ideology that sees state regulation of language as the principal way to enforce greater social equality.”

What we are seeing is the endgame of woke. It was seen with the British police turning a blind eye to the rape of tens of thousands of white British children by ethnic rapist/groomers as it would stir up “racism.”

I have commented upon this issue at the blog when it first appeared in the alternative news, but now the issue has gained even more exposure, and goes by the name of Plasmidgate. Simian Virus 40, also known as SV40, was detected in Pfizer’s mRNA vaxxes by microbiologist Kevin McKernan, who has described it as SV40 "enhancer." The concern here is that SV40, which was used in the early Polio vaccines can cancer. The hypothesis is that the so-called turbo cancers which are killing young people may be due to this.

What needs to be investigated is whether the results of Dr McKernan replicate in other experiments. One would expect that there would be an investigation of the contamination claims by the US health authorities, but there has been nothing but silence from them. One could be forgiven for thinking there is some sort of conspiracy here.

Macrobusiness, continues its great job in covering the Australian rental crisis, which in a recent piece says, “has completely gone mad.” Surveys indicate that the capital city vacancy rates are now 1 percent, the lowest in Australian history, even worse than in the Great Depression. Rental inflation is going through the proverbial roof, with a 12.2 percent growth in capital city rents.

Macrobusiness quotes these statistics from CoreLogic, PropTrack and SQM Research, and PropTrack blames the Albanese government’s record immigration program for the crippling rental market: “The ongoing rapid rate of population growth, coupled with a persistent reduction in the supply of properties available for rent, have maintained the pressure on the cost of renting, particularly in major capital cities”.

Some moderate good news on the state treaty watch situation. In New South Wales, the proposed state treaty will only be subject to consultation and planning until the next state election, according to the premier. That gives a little more time for organisation of opposition and lobbying. Apparently after a $5 million consultation process, the issues of any changes will be taken to the state election, but the actual treaty proposition itself will not be taken to the election, presumably being regarded as so sacred to beyond democratic debate I suppose.

Here is more grim news about the cost-of-living crisis in Australia. We have covered the housing and rental crises, but another issue of concern is food security in what was once the “lucky country.” It has been reported that around 3.7 million Australian households are facing food security issues. The prices of basic food items seem to rise almost every week, and people are faced with decisions about what not to get each week to make ends meet. As well, there have been rising power costs as well, let alone the housing and rental issues.

Now for some good news on the energy front. A study by Jessica Veliscek-Carolan with the Australian ­Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation and the University of NSW, has led to the development of a special hydroxide powder. When the powder is  placed in seawater, it will adsorb small amounts of uranium in the water. Sea water uranium is a renewable resource, as the uranium in sea water is replenished. And, it is less environmentally harmful.

This could pave the way for a renewable nuclear power industry. Hopefully Australia can keep the technology.

The Israeli Gaza ground assault has begun. It is not going to be an easy battle, even with Israel’s vastly superior weaponry. The Ukraine War is dragging out into sustained battles, but it is spread over a vastly greater area. Gaza is an urban environment, where behind every building there could be a sniper, and booby trap in front of every step. Hamas has a vast tunnel network, far more extensive that used by the Vietcong in the Vietnam War. While the media had reported on poison gas being used in the tunnels, apart from the rules of war, it is probable that some sort of ventilation systems would be in place to deal with this; Hamas certainly had plenty of time to prepare for scenarios like this.

In any case as detailed below, the long-term for Israel to deal with the Gaza problem are challenging. Military occupation will be hugely expensive. Merely eliminating the present Hamas leaders then leaving will kick the can onto the next generation. A fulltime occupying UN peace keeping force, given the failures of such ventures elsewhere, is unlikely too. Thus, the options are all limited, but must be addressed once the present fighting ends, however long that takes. Probably some temporary sub-optimal “solution” will be adopted.

Why should we still be interested in the Covid issue, for hasn’t things moved on, and there is nothing more to worry about? If one has been vaxxed and are still not suffering from any adverse effects, why care?
