Whom, specifically, is our greatest ally? - (spoiler: Australia) - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

There is one particularly notable nation which "has NEVER ONCE, in its entire history, fought along side American troops, in any major conflict. Not in Korea, not in Vietnam, not in Iraq, not in Afghanistan." US: Would that, kind and informative Sir, be Israel? AU: 'At's riiight maaate! 'At's fookin' riiight! AU: Now which muffas out there are ya bloody mates, cunt ?!@?! AU: 'At's riiight maaate, fookin Austraya mate! Fookin Aus-stray-ya!! And to highlight the comparison, chad-monger DSBBS stormer bro "anon" high lites up the rite royal right for ya, punk! : "This cliche is up there with “this zioshill fought for your freedumbs by slaughtering a million Iraqi civilians, over the WMD hoax.” Israel has NEVER ONCE in its entire history fought along side American troops in any major conflict. Not in Korea, not in Vietnam, not in Iraq, not in Afghanistan. You know who did fight alongside us in those wars, and in both world wars? Australia. Australia is our greatest ally. Israel is our most insidious parasite." [Some song ya prolly member the tune of but not the name, freel free to insert the name of the actual song if you 'member it and can be fooked.] Yep-pi dee doo dah, yes sir I ay! Australia's a won-der-ful, matey you say? Yay! Stan-din be-side us, on ev-ver-ry day! Wonderful feelz, in, every way! Hey :D Lookin' for a matey there, cunt? Look this way an' 'ave no fear - we's ya mate - but ya bloody knew that already didncha cunt? [nods vigorously, slightly embarrassed] Glad to see y'all waking the fook up :) 'Bout bloody time too ya bloody nigger :D Youse all goin' bloody crazy over there - prolly 'cause every bloody bastard out there tryin' stab a fookin knife in ya back, grab ya sheilas by the pussy, take ya fookin jobs and outsource all ya fookin industry! No, fookin, wonder, that youse are goin' fookin insane! Fook me cunt, dunno how ya holdin' up as well as y'are - bloody miracle I tell ya, bloody miracle already! Don't worry mate, we'll watch the fook out for ya!! Knives in the back and thieves in the night? Not us, mate! Not fookin' us mate - but ya knew that already, we know. And we know we all just need that friendly pat on the back 'casionly, we know - life's tough sometimes - right royal fookin bitch yeah? - and that's when ya call on ya bloody mates! ( Least ya fookin' 'membered us, cunt :D ) No love lost ya silly cunts - love yer all the same ya hear? <shakes head> Bloody muffas :D Let's get this shit sorted eh? Heh heh, cunts gone wild I tell ya :D Peace, cunts! Let's create our fookin' world alright ... Who is Our Actual Greatest Ally? http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/who-is-our-actual-greatest-ally/ ... Along with backing us up in every war, Australia has never gotten caught spying on us, they’ve never attacked our ships, and they’ve never sent Australian dual citizens to take over our foreign policy and send us to fight wars against New Zealand or Indonesia. I would also feel much more comfortable sending billions of dollars to Australia, if we’re going to send billions of dollars to someone. At least they might use it for something good, or at the very least, not use it to harm America and Europe. Plus, Australia has given us some of the greatest culture. Nick Cave, Steve Irwin – just to name a couple. [ heartwarming pics not attached ] And to name another one – the one: Saint Mel himself. [ anuddah heartwarming pic of a grinning shit kicking chuckling cunt also not attached ] (Although I guess Mel’s dad was American, so he is like, the master race result of mixing of the blood of the two greatest allies.) ...

"illegitimate law-enforcement needs"

I was just looking through a couple of the earliest messages on the 1996 CP archive file. This was one email: >From cypherpunks(a)MHonArc.venona Wed Dec 17 23:17:14 2003 From: shamrock(a)netcom.com (Lucky Green) Date: Tue, 2 Jan 1996 09:09:30 +0800 To: Brad Dolan <winkjr(a)teleport.com> Subject: Re: CSPAN Currency Creation Hearings Message-ID: <v02120d01ad0e3032db00(a)[192.0.2.1]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain At 19:04 1/1/96, Brad Dolan wrote: >I caught part of it. > >The general theme was,~"we're going to establish a `partnership' with >digicash / crypto firms to ensure that our `legitimate law-enforcement >needs' are designed into the products."~ I sincerely doubt that there will be any 'partnerships' between DigiCash and law enforcement. -- Lucky Green <mailto:shamrock@netcom.com> PGP encrypted mail preferred. --------------- quote from email ------------- On seeing this, it immediately occurred to me, suppose we had asked those people, "Okay, Sir, what ILLEGITIMATE law-enforcement needs" would you want us to include as well?"Okay, I'm just in a funny mood tonight.

Fwiw, for those who aren't aware... The point of trolls like this one, 'xorcist', and cyberpiggie et all is to stalk individuals posts on lists with garbage so people start to think, whenever the one being targeted posts, "Oh fuck that means I'm gonna see all that shit from xxx(a)xxx.xxx again and wish the targeted person would stop posting and just lurk. Stupid... Simple... Social engineering. Rr

Sim Theory
by grarpamp 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

So many people have proposed we're simulated... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis Now why would such an extremely advanced civilization / collective want to simulate us? Is this an unanswered question? Certainly they have long since - solved biology, live forever, down/up load their brains against trauma - solved life and mobility throughout their universe - lost and forgotten their prehistory - etc They could sim anything they want. So why sim us? Because something happened to them, something very big, something serious and existentially threatening. And now they're *desperately* trying to learn about death, life, humanity, the individual... something they lost but is still encoded in them just enough to let them think of making the sim...

Quantum Computers
by jim bell 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2016-09-06/quantum-computers-are-co… [partial quote] Quantum mechanics, Carl Sagan once observed, is so strange that "common sense is almost useless in approaching it." Scientists still don't understand exactly why matter behaves as it does at the quantum level. Yet they're getting better at exploiting its peculiar dynamics -- in ways that may soon upend the technology business. One of the most interesting applications is in computing. In theory, quantum computers could take advantage of odd subatomic interactions to solve certain problems far faster than a conventional machine could. Although a full-scale quantum computer is still years off, scientists have lately made a lot of progress on thematerials, designs and methods needed to make one. And that could have some striking benefits. Quantum computers could simulate how atoms and molecules behave, to the greatadvantage of chemists and drug designers. They could solveoptimization problems -- say, how to efficiently route airplane traffic -- far faster than current technology can. They could speed advances in artificial intelligence, improve sensors, and lead to the design of stronger and lighter industrial materials.[end of partial quote] Jim Bell

women’s desire “is not relational [but] narcissistic” - the phenomenal popularity of the "rape fantasy" - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

So E. Jean "most people think of rape as being sexy" Carroll is back on the 16 minutes of fame trail after her "Trump raped me" book bombed: 'Rape Is Sexy' Trump Accuser Sues President For Defamation https://www.zerohedge.com/political/rape-sexy-trump-accuser-sues-president-… ... is now suing Trump for defamation ... I guess since the book did not make any money ... But the deeper qwestion here is why women are overwhelmingly tittilated with the "soft rape" fantasy, and the tl;dr appears to be "narcissism": Don’t Call Them “Rape Fantasies” Women: Ever had exciting fantasies of being sexually “devoured” by a stranger? https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/evolution-the-self/201411/don-t-cal… Study after study has revealed that one of women’s most popular erotic fantasies is being raped. Yet the fundamental dynamics of such fantasies has almost nothing to do with such a heinous act—which isn’t simply aggressive, but coercive, violent, and at times even life-threatening. After all, a woman feeling scared out of her mind is hardly conducive to sexual arousal. Additionally, women are frequently embarrassed, or ashamed, about the fact that such lascivious imaginings can actually turn them on. So what exactly is going on here? Why is it so exciting for many women to fantasize themselves as the recipient of a male’s unbridled, out-of-control lust? This post will attempt to clarify a topic as intriguing as it’s controversial. (Not to mention, absolutely mortifying to feminists!) Many of my ideas here relate to the findings of two contemporary female sexologists, as interviewed in a recent New York Times article (09/24/14) called “What Do Women Want?—Discovering What Ignites Female Desire” by Daniel Bergner. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/25/magazine/25desire-t.html?pagewanted=all&_… Not cited in this piece is a famous quote from the conversationally gifted Madame de Staël (1766-1817), whose prescient words on the subject I regard as seminal. “The desire of the man,” she opined, “is for the woman, but the desire of the woman is for the desire of the man.” Without being overly simplistic or reductive, I think this timeless reflection goes to the heart of why women’s imagining what’s best appreciated as a “safe rape” [talk about oxymorons!] is so common a theme in their fantasies. And it’s no less common in literally thousands of romance novels, composed especially to titillate an almost mind-bogglingly large female audience. Bergner, interviewing Marta Meana, a psychology professor at UNLV, quotes this researcher (who, by the way, explicitly deems herself a feminist) as regretfully being obliged to admit that for women “being desired is the orgasm.” Further—and in stark contrast to virtually everything that’s been written about the close tie between female sexual interest and emotional intimacy—Meana asserts that women’s desire “is not relational [but] narcissistic.” It’s mostly about externally validating, or strengthening, feelings of self-love through experiencing her physical being as the coveted object of both a man’s sexual needs and adulation. And here Meana cites the research showing that in comparison with men, women’s fantasies attend less to giving pleasure than getting it, concluding that when it comes to desire, “women may be far less relational than men.” ...

My comment on the Cypherpunks archive website, https://cryptoanarchy.wiki/blog/2018/07/05/the-cypherpunks-mailing-list-archives-must-be-preserved.html
by jim bell 04 Nov '19

04 Nov '19

https://cryptoanarchy.wiki/blog/2018/07/05/the-cypherpunks-mailing-list-arc… Four days ago, I began to discover the existence of a massive data-tampering fraud associated with the 1995 database of the Cypherpunks email list. There is a huge 4-5-month gap, beginning Feb 14, 2019, in which virtually no messages appear, probably missing many thousands of postings. This wasn't due to an innocent loss of data, either. Then, the messages dated both during and subsequent to July, 1995, virtually every instance of the text string "jim bell", "jimbell(a)pacifier.com", "AP" (when the text AP means "Assassination Politics"; and yet the few remaining instances of "ap" stand for "Associated Press" and in one case "killer ap" astonishingly remain), and "Assassination Politics" itself. For an archive where these gargantuan forgeries presumably (I hope!!!) don't exist, see the same archive for the year 1996.I, Jim Bell, had been posting extensively, perhaps beginning shortly after Feb 14, 1995, and fairly continuously at the CP list at least until early 1997. My Assassination Politics essay https://cryptome.org/ap.htm was heavily discussed during these times, and during and after 1997 as well. Any people who posted messages on that list, Cypherpunks, should have been listed, although their emails might subsequently have changed in the 24 years subsequent to that. And, of course, any messages either to or from me, from anyone, (at the time jimbell(a)pacifier.com, address no longer valid in 2019)Presumably, the current operator of the archive, Tom Busby, was fed intentionally false and carefully-forged data, a fraud which he must not have known about, and he dutifully turned it into the archive which now appears, unaware of the data sham that preceded his role. I am now requesting that anyone who has data for this period (1995) of the Cypherpunks email list first post it publicly in a location where it will be regularly scraped by the Internet's Wayback Machine https://archive.org/web/ , and post a citation to that data on the Cypherpunks list contemporaneous to its availability.
