A middle-aged mother I know in Brooklyn-- noticed a police van parked on her block 3 days ago.

An older econoline. It never moved. No cops approached it. She suspected it was bait.

When a scattering of looters came to smash and paint it-- she saw a plainclothes cop filming them, but not interfere.

She filmed from her window. I've seen a snippet. New SUV cop cars are parked nearby-- closer to a bigger crowd of people-- sitting with cops inside & lights flashing. Close-enough that she could pan her cameraphone from the old van over to the new cars, in one motion.

Earlier today-- in broad daylight-- near NYU/University Place-- I saw one burned van & one smashed one-- both old econolines again-- still left out, from the night before. It was a pleasant sunny Sunday with young couples and students walking around, lingering, taking pictures. Surely those vans will be left right where they are, as long as they're useful to absorb more anger & capture more vandals on video.

I see the mayor DiBlasio's black daughter was arrested protesting. Maybe she's a fuckup. Or maybe she's bait. Or a Cylon!

Rewatching the 2004 Battlestar Galactica series now. Lots of funny resonance with current funtimes. Commander Adama has 2 military sons-- one honorable, one a fuckup. One dies. Very Biden-esque. Burned-down cities are patrolled by phalanxes of shiny robot cylon 'riot cops'. There's a character named 'Boomer'. Dialogue includes 'Ok Boomer' and 'Go home, Boomer'. heh. The government-scientist-expert guy is breaking quarantine to fuck his Cylon mistress. Everybody's waiting on him to develop a medical test-- to see who tests-positive for Cylon. His test is buggy, bogus, and not widely distributed. It will take 61 years for him to test every remaining human. tee hee hee. The space-news media are snakes during press conferences, never giving the space-president a fair shake. etc. Also: Space Force!

Another thought about your daughter: you're right-- she's a an SJW. But I'll emphasize a slight distinction-- she's also got Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Which is a joke-diagnosis of course... but I think it's useful to think of TDS as a real phenomenon. Much like people who say they've been abducted by aliens. The truth of that claim is unproven, at best. But the ~phenomenon~ of people saying they were abducted-- is real. And that can be studied. Phenomenology.


Of the 3 people in my life who have most bugged-out with TDS in the last few days... two of them...living in separate states... who've never met each-other... did the exact-same thing: they both accused someone of 'sounding like' Trump's rhetoric style and "being Trump". One retired man told me his rich plastic surgeon brother-- a puerto rican-- sounds "exactly" like Trump, when he talks. He also said it about his boss-- an infamous art gallery owner... who has made headlines for his pro-Trump tweets. Which-- admittedly-- are written in style similar to Trump. And a former-friend who banned me from his blog-- ranted at-me "You ARE TRUMP!"

Trump has been the catch-all Emmanuel Goldstein/ 2-minutes-hate figure/ scapegaot-- for years now-- and they can't get a grip on him, to drag him down. (yet). Which is driving the trump-haters nuts. Watch out. You don't really even gotta-be a real Trump supporter-- to be their proxy.

Would these riots be happening if Bernie Sanders had been allowed to become the Dem nominee? i don't think so. I think the left radicals would be thinking This IS A Once In A LifeTime Chance/ Dont Screw It Up. (Right now, they're all Melissa Click-- shouting 'I Need Some Muscle* Over Here!' (*Black muscle.)

If Bernie were the nominee--- we might be seeing different grassroots acting-out, tho, from the right. When Bernie was in the lead-- my gut felt a hopeless roller-caster-drop-- fearing this country is really dumb/crazy/buttmad enough to go full-retard Tumblr Socialist. In that alternate-reality-- the Boomer Dem Establishment media & paranoid right-- would both be triggered.

In Trump, the GOP gave their Id a turn in the driver's seat. Relieving a pressure-buildup, without an explosion. My hunch is-- Trump's peak-usefulness is in the past. He'd do everyone a big favor if he'd die quietly on the toilet, like Elvis. Even the left would rather play aggrieved-underdog vs. President Pence; than have to actually be in-charge.

The rioters are right about the cops & prisons. Medieval dungeon system. I don't know how to dismantle it. Onnit supplements in the drinking water, to increase everyone's IQ 15 points? More likely we degenerate into 3rd world morass & no one bothers to lock anyone up, anymore.

Bloomingdales looted last night, Nike store, Adidas, Supreme, Gucci, Chanel, Coach. GameStop. Trek bike store. Pharmacies. 20 private guards outside Prada store-- it was still vandalized. Several of those fashion places were boarded-up during Covid. Boards came off as they prepared to reopen. Too soon.

First step would be to stop the war on drugs. Criminalising the drug industry does little but feed the prison industry with criminals created from sad characters, supply the criminal underworld with the cash to corrupt the system, put unsafe product on the street and cause inter-gang murders. It is a war that can never be won. I watched a discussion with an ex undercover UK drug cop who related how he managed to round up everyone involved in the drug trade in a town and was later told that it took less than a day for the trade to bounce back. That's an entirely new set of drug criminals created. The arrests that are made are often just the result of a syndicate using the police to clear out the opposition.

San Francisco has stopped the war on drugs, and now Dominican gangsters deal openly on the street.

Commercial pot growing has been legalized and sanctioned and supported in California and in my county. All that's led to is the criminal syndicates to come in and set up shop.

It's answer begging the question to argue we must reduce the prison population.

cf. Dog's observation:
Roving groups of youngish black guys walked and biked around, hyped-up, eying the police presence. On 13th Street, I passed the remains of an NYPD van—incongruously parked in its place between two civilian vehicles—that had been torched and burnt to its skeleton. One of the clutches of kids walked by, cooing admiringly, “Oooh, they lit it up. Black lives matter, y’all.”

The bottom line is that wars on drugs don't remove the demand. If the demand is there with no legal supply then criminal syndicates will run the trade and sell at inflated prices generating big profits which go toward corrupting law enforcement. The profits incentivise brutal means of protecting markets. If you take a professional burglar off the street you have probably made a big dent in the burglary stats. Take a drug dealer off the street and you have just created an opening for a new recruit. It never stops. The only practical solution is to meet demand through legal channels and reduce the profit incentive for illegal sales.

Your scenario envisions a never-ending pool of people willing to commit crime [supply], as well as a pool of drug addicts who cannot be deterred [demand].

Of course it stops. It stops when all the criminals have been removed from society and kept locked away, and all those prone to addiction are provided proper care and support.

To understand, we need to understand Critical Race Theory. This theoretical, not evidenced, approach proceeds on a number of mostly bad assumptions. First, it insists racism is ordinary in society, sometimes also said to be permanent. If racism is ordinary and permanent, it cannot be fixed. How can such a Theory offer a solution, then?

Today I watched progressive-leaning journalist Zaid Jilani, on Rising.

Rather than a glorious revolution, Jilani compared these riots to the the looting in Baghdad, after Saddam's fall. Then came civil war.

I looked at Jilani's twitter. Good stuff. He's against treating rioters and looters as-if they're noble savages, exempt from moral responsibility for their actions. https://twitter.com/ZaidJilani

I talk to girls in their 20's. I hear about their dating lives. They get into their first serious relationships-- with equally-inexperienced guys-- and the guys act weird-- melodramatic, manipulative. To my sensibilities-- the guys are cringe-y. Unmasucline. Disgracing themselves. They remind me of batty old women.

My hypothesis is-- these guys were raised by mothers who used those tactics, unchallenged. The guys grow up thinking that just-how normal people function & get-their-way.
They haven't yet realized their upbringing was screwy & they should learn better ways to engage with the world. Some of them will never outgrow acting like mommy.

Scott Adams reminds me of those guys. He has some worthy insights. But he's attached to his master-of-manipulation schtick. He would be far-more persuasive-- if he just presented his points as simply as possible. Minus the histronics. It's the same advice he gives in the video! Don't sell past the close. Let the ideas sell themselves-- and then stop babbling, before you queer the deal. Black Leaders Don't Have Solutions. yep, true. They Prefer To Milk Problems, Rather Than Solve Them. also true. This Ends Tonight OR ELSE I will have a tantrum and never-ever help you ever ever again! You've upset your mother, young man!! How daaaare you! --uh, no. Fuck you. Eat a dick, Dilbert.

Scott Adams promising to pack up his sanctimonious bullshit & fuck off-- if there are another night of riots-- is one of the few good reasons to riot. Finally: a tangible positive result!

Maybe his audience isn't really blacks. Maybe his message 'to' blacks is really a message to his impotent white fans: he's chest-thumping-- performing the role of the mighty-whitey-voice-of-reason... giving those unruly blackies a firm talking-to. He's saying what his fans wish they could say. For them to nod & clap & admire Scott Adams. Yuck. No thanks. That's how Elizabeth Warren's campaign speeches work. Don't be such a withered floopy vagina, Dilbert.

Received via email today from Airbnb -


As we work to process the tragic deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others, we wanted to send a message to you directly. To hosts and guests who are hurting, angry, and scared, we want you to know that Airbnb stands with you.

Discrimination is the greatest threat to a community built on belonging and acceptance. It cuts to the core of who we are and what we believe in. Airbnb stands with Black Lives Matter, and we reject racism, bigotry, and hate.

We can’t talk about recent events without also acknowledging the painful truth that some hosts and guests still experience discrimination, something that is the very opposite of our mission to create belonging. In 2016, Airbnb launched our nondiscrimination policy and community commitment, and over 1.3 million people who declined the pledge have been removed from our platform. We still have work to do, and we’re continuing to take action on our commitment to fighting discrimination.

One way we’re doing that is by donating a total of $500,000 to the NAACP and the Black Lives Matter foundation in support of their fight for equality and justice, in addition to matching donations to both groups made from all of our employees. Another is sharing an Activism and Allyship guide that our Black employee resource group, Black@Airbnb, prepared for our team, which references work from activists and experts in antiracism. We thought it would be helpful to share these resources with you—as we all work together to become better and more active allies.

Download guide

Please take care of yourselves, and stay safe.

In solidarity,

The Airbnb Team

Maybe in the Utopia where there is no underclass and people are prepared to stump up the taxes to treat addicts and build a load of prisons with properly trained non-sadist staff that don't act as trade schools for criminals. New potential dealers are coming of age all the time as the population rolls over. I doubt that the world can be divided into people who are inherently criminal or non-criminal. People will do what they feel they need to do if the circumstances arise. There are some otherwise decent people selling drugs. That's my view anyway.

I doubt that the world can be divided into people who are inherently criminal or non-criminal.
You and I have widely divergent understandings of human behavior.
There are some otherwise decent people selling drugs.
No one selling hard drugs could reasonably be described as 'decent'.

The high-end commercial pot industry attracts some very unsavory types as well. I used to teach riding lessons to the daughter of our local drug courier, who'd drive hundreds of pounds of pot down to the Bay area each week. I got the distinct impression -- confirmed by others who knew him well -- that he was not a guy you wanted to get on the wrong side of.

Currently, my area is being overrun by recent arrivals from central america, including my new next door neighbors. And whether their commercial operation is meth, butane honey, or just plain old weed, they pose a grave fire danger, if nothing else.

So please don't lecture me on how the drug trade is benign, or argue how the war on drugs is unwinnable based on the fact that the war to date has been half-heartedly waged with pea-shooters.

Does any one have a link to where Abby debunked Judy Mikovits?

I've seen:

Armed US survivalists protesting that they have had to stay indoors during a pandemic.

A US President saying that violent protesters are inhibiting the rights of peaceful protesters, then federal police are sent in, in his name, to violently clear peaceful protesters so that he can have a photo op holding a bible in front of a church.

A US President threatening to send in the military against US citizens, and the NRA and armed militias are nowhere to be seen when they are needed to protect the masses against a tyrannical government.

Land of the free, and home of the brave, my arse.

America. Fuck. Yeah.

Simple. Don't 'matriculate' any of the 'students'.

And so the cycle continues.

There is a market for drugs because humans like to change their perceptions of reality and/or are physiologically addicted to various chemical compounds.

There are laws against drugs for moral, religious, geopolitical, or health reasons.

Supplying the market is criminalised and the market is therefore unregulated.

Criminals supply the market because a) the market is criminalised, and b) the money is so good because people are prepared to pay the prices.

Criminals protect their markets by violence and corruption because a) the potential profit is so good, and b) increasing force is used against them.

There is a market for drugs because humans like to change their perceptions of reality and/or are physiologically addicted to various chemical compounds.

Where do you intervene if you want the best chance to achieve your desired moral, religious, geopolitical, or health reasons?

More local news:

This store looks cleaned out (outdoor store, looks like the clothing section):

Caption for this one: "Front windows smashed early Tuesday but no inventory taken."

I guess the rioters already have extensive libraries.

The elephant in the room is, you could stop all white on black violence and it would have hardly any effect on the number of violent deaths of black people. No reform coming of this chaos will have any effect on that. all these idiots think they're doing something useful, but they're doing nothing useful.
