This is and was always about the vast Lithium deposits that are in NC. The towns in the vicinity have effectively blocked any mining operations. These deposits are worth billions! The more dead people the storm could kill the better as well as those who die due to lack of medical services or lack of water for hydration. Less people, less hassle, far easier land grab. This is the work of truly evil and irredeemable people.
"Lithium is one of the foundational elements of our modern world, and a billionaire-backed startup is trying to dig it up from beneath the dead Salton Sea. Could this new company finally beat the odds in California’s “graveyard for lithium extraction”?
That’s how founder David Snydacker characterizes the Imperial Valley, directly east of San Diego along the very southern edge of California. Snydacker’s group Lilac Solutions just received $20 million in funding from a venture capital firm specializing in energy, with marquee investors Jeff Bezos, Michael Bloomberg, and Bill Gates."
The manmade bit is true though the Sea has come in and out of existence on its own several times over hundreds of years. Control over the Colorado River, which traditionally feeds it, is very politicized with anger on both the pro and anti Salton Sea folks.
In regards to the government specifically it's that fight over the Colorado River water in tandem with the CA Clean Air Resources Board (CARB) that has prevented any solution to the disaster. CARB has pretty much demanded anyone who tries to fix it take financial responsibility for all the 'emissions' of the region and pay them as if they had violated fines personally for a natural event partially of their own making. That is to say they have purposely made it impossible by this demand.
CARB is also responsible for CA cars needing insane emission requirements, mandating no more gas cars or trucks from 2035 onwards, banning making firebreaks or prescribed burns leading to massive wildfires, etc.
The solutions for the Salton Sea are easy and plentiful - there have been many fully drafted plans to account for salinity, not affecting local areas with water usage balanced by new contracted intakes that are still legally enforceable from old documents, financial and ecological positives, etc they're just not allowed because CARB doesn't want them. You also know it's bullshit because they approved a lithium plant, known for being extremely toxic to its surroundings, for Breakthrough Energy Ventures/Lilac Solutions funded by Bill Gates, Black Rock, Jeff Bezos, Bank of America et al.
You are correct that the CNRB is the main agency overseeing the region. They do the main fine collecting while CARB is in charge of approving new ideas and determining project parameters, if it failed, succeeded and the extent of the damages. Sorta CNRB has the legal authority and they've delegated the on the ground communications and assessments to CARB. No idea why they aren't under the same agency but whatever arrangement they have has been largely negative to California.
They'd drafted up contracts regarding the Colorado River which were expensive but the ecological fix and the increased revenue from the region were considered worth it. The final debates were mostly about who would pay and how much. However after the outsider money started rolling in, including the parties related to the lithium project, it just stonewalled with no possibility of reconciliation.
There were also other plans openly discussed that were less expensive but no major player who could afford to take on the regulatory burden was in support of them. It had that catch-22, the entry costs were so high that only massive expensive plans with gigantic financial returns were worth implementing. Example: One plan, which I supported, came from the Park Ranger side which proposed building a ton of cheap smaller on site water storage which would have passively increased the water stored in the region and reduced the salinity of the region enough to rebalance everything. This reddit link showcases something similar. It tended to be CARB who rejected a particular plan or skewed the numbers to declare it undoable which is why I mistakenly gave them the full blame but yeah it's ultimately CNRB who could have pushed it.
This problem also overlaps with Gov Newsome's water strategy which is so obviously wrong combined with being very focused and consistent that it had to be deliberate. This list is not comprehensive but I'm sure it's all linked to whatever profitable agenda he has:
•Dumping the state's stored water with the justification of helping some small amount of fish
•Giving preferred treatment of the remaining water distribution to the Almond and, I'm told, Alfalfa growers. The scale of the Almond monopoly is massive.
•Refusing to store more water in times of excess rain and even tearing down existing dams to permanently reduce water storage.
It's a dog's breakfast over there. You'd need a billionaire to muscle the bureaucracy into any sense of stability at this point but the only billionaires around plan to make it a lithium leach field dump.
Same as it ever was. The Hatfield-McCoy feud was a nothingburger that journalists were bribed to push because it dehumanized mountain people that the coal companies wanted to steal land from.
MSM isn’t reporting on the devastation or the failing government aid. Local stations are doing the reporting to a degree but there’s zero trickle up to the national news, all by design of course.
It's truly crazy how few people know the magnitude of this disaster, was a brief blip on the radar then practically gone. The only headline on Google a couple days ago was Bidrn "fast tracking rebuilding money". Ok, that's great, but the disaster is STILL HAPPENING.
Nothing about mining lithium, aluminum, uranium, etc. is clean and it’s all environmentally unsafe. No modern advances have been made as they have with coal. The Salton Sea will remain a disaster albeit in a new way.

They've done the same thing over here in Germany back in June when Southern Germany was flooded. Usually the whole country is up in tools and ready to help if an area got hit by a natural disaster. But this time everyone got sent back at specific checkpoints "We've got everything under control. Your help is not needed!" It was rather bizarre because not even the army was mobilized to help which is usually the first thing we do during major catastrophes. It might be some new "Spiel" they're playing. Trying to discourage people from helping.
Anyway, people tried to hold the responsible politicians accountable, but those ***kers are immune. They resign and that's about it when it comes to consequences.
Let's face it guys, they've shown us how much they hate us during Covid-19. I'm a fan of government but it is evident that our Western governments have been hijacked by evil.
I hope that the people who got hit by that hurricane still get all the help they need. Being an American man has never been more in demand I guess.
Just as an offhand comment as someone in the trades - a lot of these hardships can be avoided the more you know about construction and demand good construction of your homes and buildings. I see a bunch of corners cut in the places I've worked over the years, and heard stories of more. Especially in the places like Asheville where the housing market gets hot, or Florida where there's a bunch of Fraud in insurance claims. No first hand experience in either market, but it's what you hear online.
Anyways, knowing what you look for when you purchase a house helps. Knowing a flood plain, what it is, and not to buy in it, helps.
It doesn't get you out of major disasters. It doesn't solve things when your government abandons you.
But, when your government, and societal, infrastructure is disappearing.... You better make sure that the assets you have are quality assets. Community. Family. Friends. Church. Home. Etc.
Sorry to hear. Hope the current one is better though. But things like a good roof, framing, etc - can make a huge difference in these kinds of weather events like hail and storms. Proper hurricane clips and tie downs in the areas prone to them. Things like that.
The Federal and State Governments caving into Leftist Greens on water "conservation" is destroying family farms and communities. "Aboriginal" land rights (Native Title) driven by the Left has led to over 50% of the country (mostly rural and outback areas) owned by less than 2% of the population, with Whites now paying for "heritage assessments" by Abos before they develop land. Regional Australia is under attack from inner city globalists who'd like us all to wither up and die. I have no doubt we're heading down the US path at a rapid rate.
Unfortunately White people aren't equipped for this moment in history. We don't have the "don't snitch" ethos necessary to counter the State parasite.
If a White guy keeps his mouth shut and goes to jail he comes out owing $30 grand in child ssuppott and is a black sheep.
Black dude gets out and immediately starts on baby-momma #4 having moved up a notch on the social ladder.
Black guy laughs at the concept of child-support and the women know how to grift the system so they don't need it. White guy battles a broken system until he can't take it anymore and sucks a shotgun.
I think the only institutions that can help are some of the churches and of course redneck culture to a degree.
Wonderfully lucid writing, as always—thank you. (And may God's grace be clearly manifest through these circumstances for all affected.) Peace
—————
“It is that the exorcist towers above the poet and even the prophet; that the story between Cana and Calvary is one long war with demons. He understood better than a hundred poets the beauty of the flowers of the battlefield; but he came out to battle. And if most of his words mean anything they do mean that there is at our very feet, like a chasm concealed among flowers, an unfathomable evil.”
I donated there, but not sure if they can really be trusted. Cajun Navy has a good reputation. I would look for local churches, as there a rumor that their fundraising can't be confiscated.
Contacts who are on the ground in western NC tell me that the rumors are true and that the situation is very bad and being made worse by FEMA. I'm not there, but between them and Elon, I think FEMA is lying.
I trust your contacts on the ground more than I trust Elon. (I like him, but he goes off half cocked at times.) If the blocking is intentional I wonder at the motivation. Yes, the area overall is Red, but there are a lot of wealthy ultra liberals in Asheville proper. The optimal evil plan would be to get Asheville back on line quickly but dawdle getting power and transportation out to the surrounding hinterlands.
And there would be plenty of cover: getting power and access to the surrounding hinterlands will be a whole lot of work. Many miles of twisty roads to get to small groups of people.
Elon invested enormous efforts to make Internet access affordable to rural areas. The government is investing billions of dollars to run fiber optic cables to remote farms in order to make Starlink unnecessary. Elon has ample reason to be pissed.
I have a contact who lives 3/4 of a mile off of a rural highway. Thanks to government subsidies, she now has fiber optic Internet access. Without the government subsidy, Starlink would have been the cheaper option.
With this utter breakdown of civilization in Southern Appalachia, the value of Starlink screams out. Elon is right to fume and neener dance.
(With that being said, Starlink would not have worked where I used to live. On the north side of a mountain, there is no reception from the south.)
I'm reminded of the old adage that "there is much ruin in a nation."
I actually live in the path of Hurricane Helene - not, thankfully, in one of the towns that flooded; some people in my town lost power for a few days (I didn't) and so schools and churches and some stores were closed for the next four days after the storm. (College football was unaffected; our team played its Saturday evening game in front of a packed audience with the usual amount of tailgating. We southerners have our priorities.)
And I agree with you that much of what was destroyed will never be rebuilt. (After all America's infrastructure, especially in small towns/flyover country, has been declining for decades). I wouldn't go so far as to call it an "eschaton," though.
I mean, think of it. Covid was much more damaging to Americans than the hurricane, both in terms of the number killed, and the number put out of work; most Americans believe that their government helped create it (by funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan) and yet... the resulting loss of trust didn't change much of anyone's behavior. We grumbled; we moved on with life. Decline is slow.
Back during the peak of the Floyd Riots, a lot of people were looking at the elites' apparent indifference to the destruction of their civilization and saying things like "The system collapse of the US society has begun!" And other such claims that the end was nigh. I wrote a blog post entitled "Honorius and the Slowness of Decline" about how even when the elites at the helm of a society act like blithering idiots in the face of every catastrophe that doesn't effect them personally... the society can still keep plodding along for a century or so before the curtain falls.
The example I talked about in detail in that essay was, of course, Rome during the late 4th and earth 5th centuries, when Honorius was on the throne and the barbarians were pillaging the empire while the ruling class tried its best to act like everything was normal. But 19th century China works just as well, or the Moghul Empire in the 18th century, or what have you. The point of it is, decline is slow, and just because a certain portion of a society is getting shafted by the powers that be, doesn't mean that we should start expecting the whole thing to roll over and die in a year or two.
But yeah, FEMA's treatment of the folks in Appalachia has certainly been trashy.
It's too early to assess the damage COVID has done to communities and especially children. I moved out of my city and when I go back it's basically a shell of itself, replacement is in full force and the teenagers don't ever leave their house. The long term effects could indeed be irreparable.
The traitors in your government who will freely dispense your money to remote strangers, for weapons, for border defense, for emergency aid, for "climate justice", for medical aid, for "gender affirmation surgery", and similar barefaced money-laundering scams, while denying anything you actually need from the American people: these traitors have to be forced out of your government. They will not leave voluntarily. the system itself will not purge them. The DoJ is as guilty of all these crimes as any other branch. The Supreme Court will not save you (it cannot).
ONLY the American people can MAKE this happen and it will not happen unless the American people make it happen.
I don't want to settle for being told to embrace a new normal like it was just a cyclic Carteresque malaise, something we need to live with. It doesn't have to be this way. You get a case of hot lava volcanic diarrhea, you take Imodium-AD. You get super constipated, you take an industrial grade purgative. This country needs a purgative. Further, "trashy" implies rude, indifferent customer service to me. I'd describe FEMA as criminally inept.
Hurricane Helen, particularly the aftermath that impacted North Carolina, stimulated a series of events that completely transitioned my wife's thinking. She had thought (with great tolerance) that my skepticism about government and the direction our nation was heading was a little extreme.
She had always wanted to visit Asheville, but a few weeks ago that desire rose to a level of compulsion— she couldn't stop talking about it. Her birthday was coming, so I planned a two-day getaway to Asheville. We went and had a great time, which was punctuated by the severe rainstorms generated by Helene.
We received the severe weather / flash flood warnings on our phones, and overheard locals expressing concerns about potential flooding. But being from the Midwest and now visiting hill country, we did not give credence to the idea of flooding. We drove home through the most torrential rains we had ever experienced.
When we later saw news reports of the catastrophic impact of these storms, including specific places we had visited only days before disappearing into piles of debris, our eyes were opened. We developed an intense affinity for the plight of the people there, binge-watching news reports, tweets, and YouTube videos. We even sent money to the Cajun Navy, an organization we had never heard of before.
The stark and undeniable contrast between the reality of our federal government's response— not only failing to help, but showing an inexplicable lack of concern and even blocking locals from helping their neighbors— and the mental picture my wife had about the government she thought existed, flipped a switch in her mind. She became an instant skeptic.
The human mind instinctively creates mental images of reality, sorting it into aspects that are changing (or likely to change) rapidly and aspects that aren't. This permits focus upon things that represent the greatest potential threats and opportunities. As a matter of habit (or maybe laziness), we cling to those mental models until something compels us to revise them. Like frogs in gradually heated water, we tolerate an increasing gap between our mental models and reality, in some cases rejecting evidence of the change that has actually occurred, unless / until an undeniable, compelling event or realization— a "flash of reality"— recalibrates our thinking.
Some never experience that flash of reality, and they succumb to any of the numerous fantasies currently exhibited by a large portion of the population. In extreme cases, their fear of a bold and ugly new reality causes them to erect an impenetrable mental wall of denial, jettisoning their critical thinking capabilities in favor of creating, in their minds, a safe and comfortable alternative reality.
These are the people likely to respond favorably to a campaign based upon abstract assurances, such as "hope and change" and now "joy." Deep in their minds, however, this cognitive dissonance creates a sense of something wrong, which in turn increases their fear— and the effect is amplified. Ultimately, many of these people become delusional— permanently lost to reality.
Leftist psychology is rooted in fear and envy, resulting in the theory that "if we can't have/say/do it, then we will make sure nobody else can." This leads to the tactics of suppressing, undermining, neutralizing, or outright eliminating competing ideas and activities.
The information channels under government control or influence do their best to prevent public awareness of events or perspectives that might create flashes of reality. Their techniques range from reporting but misrepresenting an event or perspective, to intentionally failing to report it altogether (censorship). When social media created a bypass channel that threatened their monopoly on public information, the Left developed tactics to manage the situation. Like lawyers who dump millions of documents on their opponents during discovery, or hackers who mount a denial-of-service attack on a website, they use a key attribute of social media— it's openness— against it, flooding these channels with misinformation and disinformation, some of which being obviously false, to swamp the undesired communications and break down overall public trust in the channel.
We are now in a race. Like a predator quietly approaching its prey, hoping it will not be detected until it has attacked, the Left is doing its best to maintain popular ignorance of its true nature and activities until after the election— after which, the Left believes, it will be too late.
Hurricane Helen and its aftermath has, to a great degree, created a brilliant flash of reality. Hopefully, enough Americans have avoided becoming delusional for this to make a difference.
Glad you saw Asheville (and left!) while it was still there. You were some of the last. My daughter was going to celebrate her birthday at the Biltmore next week, but those plans have obviously been changed.
I had not known about that theory— it makes sense! Sorry your family missed an opportunity to get together at Biltmore. Hopefully it will reopen next year.
Planning to vacation in western NC next year specifically to help rebuild the economy. Would go to offer labor/help rebuild if I could find somewhere to apply my meager skills.
Just read recently that the local police or sheriffs are arresting fema if they try to stop, disturb, derail, or otherwise make the pains in the asses they are being paid to make.i say put them in jail,the risky ones that might have a couple feet if water in them, and charge them with treason.

I will add that the same thing happened to the Salton Sea.

They've done the same thing over here in Germany back in June when Southern Germany was flooded. Usually the whole country is up in tools and ready to help if an area got hit by a natural disaster. But this time everyone got sent back at specific checkpoints "We've got everything under control. Your help is not needed!" It was rather bizarre because not even the army was mobilized to help which is usually the first thing we do during major catastrophes. It might be some new "Spiel" they're playing. Trying to discourage people from helping.
Anyway, people tried to hold the responsible politicians accountable, but those ***kers are immune. They resign and that's about it when it comes to consequences.
Let's face it guys, they've shown us how much they hate us during Covid-19. I'm a fan of government but it is evident that our Western governments have been hijacked by evil.
I hope that the people who got hit by that hurricane still get all the help they need. Being an American man has never been more in demand I guess.
I am so sorry.
My ethnicity is German, with some Austrian. Never made it to visit, although I’ve longed to. Other family members have, though.
Just as an offhand comment as someone in the trades - a lot of these hardships can be avoided the more you know about construction and demand good construction of your homes and buildings. I see a bunch of corners cut in the places I've worked over the years, and heard stories of more. Especially in the places like Asheville where the housing market gets hot, or Florida where there's a bunch of Fraud in insurance claims. No first hand experience in either market, but it's what you hear online.
Anyways, knowing what you look for when you purchase a house helps. Knowing a flood plain, what it is, and not to buy in it, helps.
It doesn't get you out of major disasters. It doesn't solve things when your government abandons you.
But, when your government, and societal, infrastructure is disappearing.... You better make sure that the assets you have are quality assets. Community. Family. Friends. Church. Home. Etc.
Just some thoughts.
So true. I was ignorant when I bought my first home, and paid the price in constant problems.
Sorry to hear. Hope the current one is better though. But things like a good roof, framing, etc - can make a huge difference in these kinds of weather events like hail and storms. Proper hurricane clips and tie downs in the areas prone to them. Things like that.
Can you tell me exactly who built and ran the USSR murder machine? I'll tell you. It's the exact same group of people who are running America today.
"Will you be willing to disobey..."
Yes. Planning on it, in fact. So are others.
Thank you. In Australia, but am seeing the beginning of this sort of evil here as well.
Can you give an example ?
The Federal and State Governments caving into Leftist Greens on water "conservation" is destroying family farms and communities. "Aboriginal" land rights (Native Title) driven by the Left has led to over 50% of the country (mostly rural and outback areas) owned by less than 2% of the population, with Whites now paying for "heritage assessments" by Abos before they develop land. Regional Australia is under attack from inner city globalists who'd like us all to wither up and die. I have no doubt we're heading down the US path at a rapid rate.
That sounds more like the South Africa path. But over a long enough timeline, what's the difference.
Unfortunately White people aren't equipped for this moment in history. We don't have the "don't snitch" ethos necessary to counter the State parasite.
If a White guy keeps his mouth shut and goes to jail he comes out owing $30 grand in child ssuppott and is a black sheep.
Black dude gets out and immediately starts on baby-momma #4 having moved up a notch on the social ladder.
Black guy laughs at the concept of child-support and the women know how to grift the system so they don't need it. White guy battles a broken system until he can't take it anymore and sucks a shotgun.
I think the only institutions that can help are some of the churches and of course redneck culture to a degree.
Wonderfully lucid writing, as always—thank you. (And may God's grace be clearly manifest through these circumstances for all affected.) Peace

“It is that the exorcist towers above the poet and even the prophet; that the story between Cana and Calvary is one long war with demons. He understood better than a hundred poets the beauty of the flowers of the battlefield; but he came out to battle. And if most of his words mean anything they do mean that there is at our very feet, like a chasm concealed among flowers, an unfathomable evil.”
—G.K. Chesterton, The New Jerusalem
This is war, State versus Citizens. Why? It can only be about money 💰... or hate. 🤷
Or pure evil. I not quite sure that 'hate' covers that.
Why not both?
Why not love? Of America that used to be, of liberty, of moral rightness, of God?
We’ve been “couped” by those who don’t follow those values. The people here are no longer in control - if we/they ever really were.
Tulsi Gabbard is using the non-profit aid group she formed for Maui:
https://open.substack.com/pub/tulsi/p/we-must-protect-victims-of-hurricane?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=91hc8
I donated there, but not sure if they can really be trusted. Cajun Navy has a good reputation. I would look for local churches, as there a rumor that their fundraising can't be confiscated.
FEMA denies most of these allegations. https://www.fema.gov/disaster/current/hurricane-helene/rumor-response
Whether they are lying is unknown to me.
Slowness in deploying the military to help out is definitely on the shoulders of the Zombie Biden administration.
I need to quiz some of my friends in the area who do have Internet access and see how these reports jibe with their experience.
Contacts who are on the ground in western NC tell me that the rumors are true and that the situation is very bad and being made worse by FEMA. I'm not there, but between them and Elon, I think FEMA is lying.
I trust your contacts on the ground more than I trust Elon. (I like him, but he goes off half cocked at times.) If the blocking is intentional I wonder at the motivation. Yes, the area overall is Red, but there are a lot of wealthy ultra liberals in Asheville proper. The optimal evil plan would be to get Asheville back on line quickly but dawdle getting power and transportation out to the surrounding hinterlands.
And there would be plenty of cover: getting power and access to the surrounding hinterlands will be a whole lot of work. Many miles of twisty roads to get to small groups of people.
I don't know. There's a lot of rumors but I don't have any more information on it than you do.
As of this morning utilities are back on in Asheville proper -- or at least the portion where a friend of mine lives.
From eyes on the ground: https://starrohara.substack.com/p/helene-the-hellion-mountain-folks
Elon invested enormous efforts to make Internet access affordable to rural areas. The government is investing billions of dollars to run fiber optic cables to remote farms in order to make Starlink unnecessary. Elon has ample reason to be pissed.
I have a contact who lives 3/4 of a mile off of a rural highway. Thanks to government subsidies, she now has fiber optic Internet access. Without the government subsidy, Starlink would have been the cheaper option.
With this utter breakdown of civilization in Southern Appalachia, the value of Starlink screams out. Elon is right to fume and neener dance.
(With that being said, Starlink would not have worked where I used to live. On the north side of a mountain, there is no reception from the south.)
I'm reminded of the old adage that "there is much ruin in a nation."
I actually live in the path of Hurricane Helene - not, thankfully, in one of the towns that flooded; some people in my town lost power for a few days (I didn't) and so schools and churches and some stores were closed for the next four days after the storm. (College football was unaffected; our team played its Saturday evening game in front of a packed audience with the usual amount of tailgating. We southerners have our priorities.)
And I agree with you that much of what was destroyed will never be rebuilt. (After all America's infrastructure, especially in small towns/flyover country, has been declining for decades). I wouldn't go so far as to call it an "eschaton," though.
I mean, think of it. Covid was much more damaging to Americans than the hurricane, both in terms of the number killed, and the number put out of work; most Americans believe that their government helped create it (by funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan) and yet... the resulting loss of trust didn't change much of anyone's behavior. We grumbled; we moved on with life. Decline is slow.
Back during the peak of the Floyd Riots, a lot of people were looking at the elites' apparent indifference to the destruction of their civilization and saying things like "The system collapse of the US society has begun!" And other such claims that the end was nigh. I wrote a blog post entitled "Honorius and the Slowness of Decline" about how even when the elites at the helm of a society act like blithering idiots in the face of every catastrophe that doesn't effect them personally... the society can still keep plodding along for a century or so before the curtain falls.
https://twilightpatriot.substack.com/p/honorius-and-the-slowness-of-decline
The example I talked about in detail in that essay was, of course, Rome during the late 4th and earth 5th centuries, when Honorius was on the throne and the barbarians were pillaging the empire while the ruling class tried its best to act like everything was normal. But 19th century China works just as well, or the Moghul Empire in the 18th century, or what have you. The point of it is, decline is slow, and just because a certain portion of a society is getting shafted by the powers that be, doesn't mean that we should start expecting the whole thing to roll over and die in a year or two.
But yeah, FEMA's treatment of the folks in Appalachia has certainly been trashy.
It's too early to assess the damage COVID has done to communities and especially children. I moved out of my city and when I go back it's basically a shell of itself, replacement is in full force and the teenagers don't ever leave their house. The long term effects could indeed be irreparable.
The traitors in your government who will freely dispense your money to remote strangers, for weapons, for border defense, for emergency aid, for "climate justice", for medical aid, for "gender affirmation surgery", and similar barefaced money-laundering scams, while denying anything you actually need from the American people: these traitors have to be forced out of your government. They will not leave voluntarily. the system itself will not purge them. The DoJ is as guilty of all these crimes as any other branch. The Supreme Court will not save you (it cannot).
ONLY the American people can MAKE this happen and it will not happen unless the American people make it happen.
Edited for atrocious spelling. Sorry.
I don't want to settle for being told to embrace a new normal like it was just a cyclic Carteresque malaise, something we need to live with. It doesn't have to be this way. You get a case of hot lava volcanic diarrhea, you take Imodium-AD. You get super constipated, you take an industrial grade purgative. This country needs a purgative. Further, "trashy" implies rude, indifferent customer service to me. I'd describe FEMA as criminally inept.
The FOREST of woe ...
Will American citizens ever understand what is being coerced onto them ???
Will they ever set new priorities, reshuffle them and act accordingly ???
Being gullible in kindergarten may be quite funny, but not in real, current life ...
I'm stealing that line "the forest of woe"
You're most welcome !!! 👍👍👍
Done correctly, the frog in the pot never notices the slow boil. It's a clever strategy.
Kermit the Frog was predictive programming :-D
Hi Ho, Kermit de Frog here...
Yes, and I hope you noticed that I said "strategy" rather than "tactic". This is all part of the Long March, Gramsci, Cloward-Piven...nth.
Hurricane Helen, particularly the aftermath that impacted North Carolina, stimulated a series of events that completely transitioned my wife's thinking. She had thought (with great tolerance) that my skepticism about government and the direction our nation was heading was a little extreme.
She had always wanted to visit Asheville, but a few weeks ago that desire rose to a level of compulsion— she couldn't stop talking about it. Her birthday was coming, so I planned a two-day getaway to Asheville. We went and had a great time, which was punctuated by the severe rainstorms generated by Helene.
We received the severe weather / flash flood warnings on our phones, and overheard locals expressing concerns about potential flooding. But being from the Midwest and now visiting hill country, we did not give credence to the idea of flooding. We drove home through the most torrential rains we had ever experienced.
When we later saw news reports of the catastrophic impact of these storms, including specific places we had visited only days before disappearing into piles of debris, our eyes were opened. We developed an intense affinity for the plight of the people there, binge-watching news reports, tweets, and YouTube videos. We even sent money to the Cajun Navy, an organization we had never heard of before.
The stark and undeniable contrast between the reality of our federal government's response— not only failing to help, but showing an inexplicable lack of concern and even blocking locals from helping their neighbors— and the mental picture my wife had about the government she thought existed, flipped a switch in her mind. She became an instant skeptic.
The human mind instinctively creates mental images of reality, sorting it into aspects that are changing (or likely to change) rapidly and aspects that aren't. This permits focus upon things that represent the greatest potential threats and opportunities. As a matter of habit (or maybe laziness), we cling to those mental models until something compels us to revise them. Like frogs in gradually heated water, we tolerate an increasing gap between our mental models and reality, in some cases rejecting evidence of the change that has actually occurred, unless / until an undeniable, compelling event or realization— a "flash of reality"— recalibrates our thinking.
Some never experience that flash of reality, and they succumb to any of the numerous fantasies currently exhibited by a large portion of the population. In extreme cases, their fear of a bold and ugly new reality causes them to erect an impenetrable mental wall of denial, jettisoning their critical thinking capabilities in favor of creating, in their minds, a safe and comfortable alternative reality.
These are the people likely to respond favorably to a campaign based upon abstract assurances, such as "hope and change" and now "joy." Deep in their minds, however, this cognitive dissonance creates a sense of something wrong, which in turn increases their fear— and the effect is amplified. Ultimately, many of these people become delusional— permanently lost to reality.
Leftist psychology is rooted in fear and envy, resulting in the theory that "if we can't have/say/do it, then we will make sure nobody else can." This leads to the tactics of suppressing, undermining, neutralizing, or outright eliminating competing ideas and activities.
The information channels under government control or influence do their best to prevent public awareness of events or perspectives that might create flashes of reality. Their techniques range from reporting but misrepresenting an event or perspective, to intentionally failing to report it altogether (censorship). When social media created a bypass channel that threatened their monopoly on public information, the Left developed tactics to manage the situation. Like lawyers who dump millions of documents on their opponents during discovery, or hackers who mount a denial-of-service attack on a website, they use a key attribute of social media— it's openness— against it, flooding these channels with misinformation and disinformation, some of which being obviously false, to swamp the undesired communications and break down overall public trust in the channel.
We are now in a race. Like a predator quietly approaching its prey, hoping it will not be detected until it has attacked, the Left is doing its best to maintain popular ignorance of its true nature and activities until after the election— after which, the Left believes, it will be too late.
Hurricane Helen and its aftermath has, to a great degree, created a brilliant flash of reality. Hopefully, enough Americans have avoided becoming delusional for this to make a difference.
Glad you saw Asheville (and left!) while it was still there. You were some of the last. My daughter was going to celebrate her birthday at the Biltmore next week, but those plans have obviously been changed.
El Gato posted a meme that seems to reflect the crux of your post; link here: https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc827879b-4d89-4ec6-ab06-7698106dc7eb_720x860.jpeg
I had not known about that theory— it makes sense! Sorry your family missed an opportunity to get together at Biltmore. Hopefully it will reopen next year.
Planning to vacation in western NC next year specifically to help rebuild the economy. Would go to offer labor/help rebuild if I could find somewhere to apply my meager skills.
Just read recently that the local police or sheriffs are arresting fema if they try to stop, disturb, derail, or otherwise make the pains in the asses they are being paid to make.i say put them in jail,the risky ones that might have a couple feet if water in them, and charge them with treason.
