The de-criminalisation of natural/normal child activities (e.g. taking pictures of themselves and others) is of course a good thing, and appears to be the intent of these laws/ amendments that the OP Subject line is referring to in a sensationalist way. In fact the broad sweeping laws that were in place were broad and sweeping, and failed to consider this situation of children doing things children can be expeted to (and do) actually do - take photos of themselves and friends. Somewhat humorously and completely "non ironically" the narrator in the linked video begins "Did you know, that the production, possession and distribution of child pornography has been legalized in Australia?" thus implicitly asserting (and inserting) himself into the very same (and rightfully) dreaded 'censor' role or decider of what is, and is not, pornography, that he later on highlights as problematic (when he asks "who gets to decide what's reasonable"). As is usual with wanna be censors, those who would willingly make such decisions for others, usually (as is the case here) don't want others to make censorship decisions for themselves ("I would make great censorship decisions!" "MY Marxist utopio would -really- be a utopia, unlike all those other failed experiements in history!") Unfortunately the narrator does not see this very irony of him calling out the legislative trap ("Whom will make the decisions of a reasonable man"), and completely falling into the same trap throughout his entire video ("Child pornography of those images taken by say 12 year olds of their own bodies, is still pornography and the law must make no exception for this, and I'll decide what is and is not pornographic"). Every "allegation" of "pornography" (or in this case the alleged "legalization of child pornography") is necessarily a judgement call founded on what is and what is not pornography, which of course cannot be made except that the one making the allegation is defining, or is willing to define and believes they are capable of defining, "pornography" or in this case "child pornography" - which in any case is essentially impossible to define other than "I know it when I see it" which falls back to the arrogantly self implied "great moral standing" of the one deigning to make such decisions on behalf of others/ the rest of us. The trap is self referential, and subtle, thus circuitous and repetitive in most attempts to unravel it. This subtlety is the reason cries of "please, won't someone think of the children and save them (from themselves)" is both so appealing yet so deceptive to many and simultaneously alluring to the virtue- signalling SJW wanna bes, and thus also difficult for many to counter (or rather "to straighten out the underlying assumptions which don't quite make sense but I just can't quite figure out why"). Put another way, one Soul's personal childhood explorations and memories, are another Soul's "pornography". As in, literally. Perhaps does the one brandishing the accusation stick of "your image is pornographic, you must suffer the law" tell us more about the one making this accusation, than the target of his accusation? Matthew 7:5: “Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and only then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.” https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Matthew-7-5/ Many humans project their own sin (incorrect direction, of action, attention etc), fears, and painful personal past events, upon others, naturally (but mostly incorrectly) assuming others have a similar lense to themselves - the age old projectionism trap. Something constructive? May be require that every legislated crime name an actual victim, as well as the actual harm that victim has actually suffered. And perhaps leave it to parents, rather than police and the courts, to educate their children on the dangers of sharing with others, images they take of themselves. (And while we're at it, work hard to reduce or eliminate all victimless crimes, putting humans first and corporations last in our scheme of values.) For an absolute classic (and very recent) example of projectionism in action, see Lana Lockteff on Suzanne Harper (the so called "Jessie Daniels") Feminist Professor: White Nuclear Families Are Racist & Supremacist Red Ice TV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yR1BBlGI1M Jessie/ Suzanne is virulently anti-White, speaks of "dismantling white supremacy", the evils of the "white nuclear family" being "one of the most powerful forces supporting white supremacy" etc etc etc ... ... and according to her own story (IF true), Suzanne was molested by her grandfather and he'd had a stint in the KKK, yet this "professor" Suzanne cannot see her projection of her (if true) painful past, upon all white people and all "white nuclear families" and "the patriarchy". Go figure :D - perhaps she ought take a university course on psychology. Those with genuine unresolved issues arising from their childhood ought seek the help they need to find healing, resolution, closure and peace within themselves before one-sidely branding as evil an entire race or people (in Suzanne Harper's case, all "white" people and especially "white nuclear families"). A far greater problem which we actually appear to have and which actually affects most of us, is the blackmailing of our politicians, which since "the legalization" of those of the same gender who would "get a room" and otherwise carry out their intimate business in private, is these days limited to cuckoldry and pedophilia blackmail. Perhaps those eager to decry legislation without even a word to the problems inherent in the position they boldly oppose, ought ponder this question of our blackmailed politicians. Assuming of course they don't melt before hearing a position other than their own... Create your world. Perhaps first "clean up your room" which metaphorically speaking could include seeking closure on any painful events from your own childhood if that's something you need, and after this you might even find that some of those you love to hate are actually interesting, caring, deeply thoughtful, and possibly even loving, creative and wonderful fellow human beings.

Global Elections 2020: John McAfee - Open Call For Do'ers
by grarpamp 03 Aug '19

https://loggiaonfire.com/magazine/10_things_anyone_can_do_to_help_mcafee_20… https://www.facebook.com/mcafeelp https://www.lp.org/membership/ 10 Things Anyone Can Do To Help McAfee 2020 Rob Loggia Dec 18, 2018 It is better to be a flamboyant failure than any kind of benign success. Malcom McLaren As we prepare to enter 2019, Team McAfee 2020 has been working behind the scenes to launch a campaign for President of the United States such as the nation has never seen before. Public enthusiasm for this campaign is already very much in evidence, with offers to help rolling in every day. We are working to get the infrastructure in place to handle the efficient and successful leveraging of this mass of humanity, but there is no need to wait to get to work. One of the obstacles facing any effort involving volunteer labor is contending with Talkers while trying to retain enough mental and physical energy to empower Doers. Campaigns need Doers to function. Unfortunately, for every Doer that steps up, at least 10 Talkers also show, eager to waste vast reserves of time and resources proving to others how brilliant they are. They may be well intentioned, they may be sincere supporters, but this only makes them all the more difficult to handle with dispatch. This list is for the Doers. The power we are seeking to unleash with the 2020 campaign is not the power of John McAfee. It is the power of the individual – the power in each of us – this is the only fire that can become large enough to consume the blight on our land. This campaign is about YOU, and claiming ownership over your person and your destiny. Waiting for permission to get involved well… frankly that won’t do. The 10 suggestions listed below are just that – suggestions. Our candidate has made clear that what he is after with this campaign is the greatest possible amount of national attention. If you have an idea on how to move the ball, don’t wait for permission. Do it! Do it now. Here are 10 specific things, however, that would be a tremendous help immediately and throughout. Some are so obvious that the importance can be overlooked, and the little things you could be doing to help us are left undone. If you are serious about changing the face of this nation, of restoring the dignity and sovereignty of the individual, and helping John McAfee seize the national attention – start here. Print this list and go out and do. We’ll soon have a website up for the campaign, along with a volunteer form. We have an enormous tent, and we encourage everyone to sign up and join the campaign team. But even then, our success will depend greatly on the individuals that take what has been said here seriously. The decentralized column of our campaign has the greatest potential energy in store, and we wish to fully realize that energy. So without further adieu, here are 10 things that would really help us out. Make a realistic forecast and budget One of the obstacles we saw during the 2016 campaign was people showing up wanting to help, but in the end proving ineffective due to other commitments or lack of personal funding. We all have to work, have families, obligations, etc. We also know what our lives cost to live, and how much we bring in. An important first step to successfully helping the campaign, as opposed to just volunteering, is to take the time to do a realistic assessment of both. With this assessment in hand, you can begin to budget an appropriate amount of time and resources towards volunteering. Some people will have more time then others, and that is just fine. If you only have 5 minutes a week to spare, you can still do valuable work for the campaign. And if you’re realistic about only being able to spare that much, the odds increase that you will use that time wisely. Unfulfilled promises don’t help the campaign, or the individual making them. Be realistic about what you can do, and then budget your time and resources to make good on your offer. Join our online community (Discord) One of our volunteers has set up a discord server for the campaign to use. In addition to announcements and campaign information, this will be the place to meet like-minded people to collaborate with. If you don’t use Discord yet, it is easy enough to learn, install and use for even basic internet users. Join our community by using this link: https://discord.gg/NjxvBWB Contact media outlets and personalities Our campaign depends on attention, and the media is still the best source of public attention in American society. Now would be a great time to start reaching out to your favorite media outlets, shows and personalities and letting them know that you’d like to see John McAfee on their show. The larger outlets may not respond directly to you, but make no mistake: they are seeing them. If enough people express this desire, it will force them to at least consider the possibility. Campaign leadership will be making our own overtures, and every email and phone call in support of our position helps that process immensely. Start a PAC A political action committee (PAC) is an organization that pools campaign contributions from members and can donate to a campaign, or spend money in support of a campaign but independently of the candidate or political party. In other words, there is no limit on what a PAC can spend to influence an election in favor of a candidate. The only stipulation is that there can be no direct collusion between the PAC and the campaign. We intend to comply fully with this restriction, but our campaign is completely unaffected by it. We embrace decentralized action, and do not need to control the actions of others. People that take the time to start a PAC in favor of McAfee 2020 will be helping us tremendously. We know you will find ways to use that money to bring us the attention we need. For those that are interested, here are some resources on starting a PAC or Super PAC. Wikipedia Opensecrets.org Localvictory.com Thoughtco.com Medium Article FEC Official Website Grassroots messaging and recruiting The cornerstone of any campaign, or any human endeavor for that matter, is people. As Joe Strummer so wisely put it: Without people you’re nothing. The cheapest, easiest way to help McAfee 2020 is simply to talk about it. Take it out into the world with you – do not leave it for the internet alone. Talk to friends, family, the guy at the deli counter – anyone that will give you the time of day and a few minutes more. Let them know WHY you support McAfee 2020 and everything we stand for. Help them understand why they should too. When you find people who will listen, consider, and perhaps even decide that they like what they hear, point them in our direction. Once the campaign site is live, you can send them there. In the meantime, give them this list and put them to work. Join the LP and tell them why Our intention is to seek the nomination of the Libertarian Party in 2020, as was done in 2016. A great way to support the campaign is to join the Libertarian Party, at the state and national levels, and tell them why you are joining. Include “I’m here for McAfee” with your registration and payment to make sure leadership there knows why you are joining. For existing members, take the opportunity to renew your memberships and include the same messaging with your renewal. If enough people take this critical step, it will send a loud and clear message to the party leadership – one they sorely need to hear. Consider being a Libertarian delegate in 2020 Even more vital than membership are the voting delegates at the nominating convention. The convention will be held in Austin, Texas in 2020, and delegates are responsible for their own travel and boarding. Delegates are all free agents – none are committed at the time of convention. They may vote their conscience on that day. What our campaign needs, perhaps more than anything else, is individuals committed to the idea of seeing John McAfee on the national stage in 2020 to go through the process and become a voting delegate. We need these individuals to be willing and able to travel to the convention for the nominating vote and pull the switch for McAfee. The Libertarian Party Radical Caucus has published a guide to the steps required to become a delegate. As we get closer, the campaign will also provide information and resources to faciliate this process. But now is the time to begin considering if this is something you can do. Our success depends on a critical mass of people taking this important step. Double down on social media Social media platforms are perhaps the single most consulted data source for determining audience size and engagement in our modern world. Accounts with an active community that shares and reinforces source posts demonstrate a committed and powerful community. This is the message we wish to send to the entire world. Taking the time to follow important campaign accounts, signing up for new platforms if necessary, helps grow the audience size. Liking and sharing content spreads the word in a wider radius and demonstrates support. These are vital interactions that may be inherently trivial, but that also have far reaching consequences. If you only have 5 minutes a week to spend helping the campaign, this is how we would ask you to spend them. Add your momentum to our messaging, and amplify our campaign for more of the world to see. You will be helping us more than you know. Important accounts you can start following right away: Official John McAfee Twitter Campaign Facebook page Twitter, Campaign Manager Rob Loggia Twitter, Campaign Media Director Janice McAfee Twitter, Youth Coordinator Zoe Nawar Start a campaigning jar If you started today and put $1 in a jar every day, you would have roughly $500 saved by the time the Libertarian Party holds the nominating convention in June 2020. If you can’t manage $1, put in what you can manage, but do it consistently. You still will have saved some effective mass of money. $500 may not seem like a lot, but if you are considering becoming a delegate this could be your travel money. You could donate it to a PAC supporting the campaign, or to the campaign itself should we decide to accept campaign donations this time. Or you could get creative, and figure out how to best spend that money to help our goal. Maybe have bumper stickers, lawn signs or shirts made, and hand them out. Perhaps there will be opportunities to pool your saved resources with other individuals, enough to fund some spectacle or attention-getting stunt that can bring the campaign attention. Or maybe it will just allow you to travel to a campaign event. Either way, it is better to have some money in your pocket when setting out to accomplish something. This is an easy way to ensure that you do. We can’t tell you how to use this money. We can’t even tell you TO use it. This is just a friendly suggestion. If you do decide to start a campaigning jar, download this nifty lable and print it to paste on the jar. Put it somewhere you will see it every day, like next to the toilet. Now you will never forget. Learn about cryptocurrency A major focus of the 2020 campaign will be on cryptocurrency. We believe that cryptocurrency offers a unique historical opportunity to the individual – a chance to liberate one’s self, without violence, and to become more free. Money drives everything in this world, and represents the strongest of the chains bound upon us by out-of-control government. We aim to break that chain for as many people as possible by helping them become familiar and comfortable with a technology that can empower them to do it. But misinformation abounds, and the people in control of money in the present day are predictably employing a full court press of Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt to discourage people from adopting this technology. Therefore, if you are out stumping for McAfee 2020, it helps if you are as informed as possible about these issues, and eager to discuss them with others. This will help us set the narrative, rather than the people that set it now.

He currently serves as the Chief Operating Officer of Team McAfee. In 2015 he launched Vacant Minds Media as a platform for content that other publishers won't touch. He also was a member of the Core Team for John McAfee's 2016 bid for the office of President, and is working to help plan McAfee 2020, with a primary goal of bringing cryptocurrency to the forefront of national attention.

End all govt secrets... godspeed all testimonials, leakers, crackers, and publishers. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NOVEMBER 26, 2018 UNITED STATES ATTORNEY AGREES TO COMPLY WITH FEDERAL LAW REQUIRING SUBMISSION TO SPECIAL GRAND JURY OF REPORT BY LAWYERS’ COMMITTEE AND 9/11 VICTIM FAMILY MEMBERS OF YET-TO-BE- PROSECUTED 9/11 RELATED FEDERAL CRIMES The 9/11 truth movement has been active and persistent for over 17 years, and while mainstream media won’t touch the story, and while most Americans refuse to even consider the possibility that the attacks were an inside job, the actual evidence supporting controlled demolition theory is so convincing that a legitimate federal grand jury investigation will address this very question. Thousands of architects and engineers, pilots, security professionals, journalists and concerned citizens have been demanding that the federal government release the truth about the attacks, all noting that there is overwhelming circumstantial and scientific evidence proving that the World Trade Center towers, including building 7, were brought down by a pre-planned controlled demolition. The evidence for this is exceptionally captivating, and The Lawyers’ Committee for 9/11 Inquiry has successfully submitted a petition to the federal government demanding that a grand jury consider this possibility. Finally, the U.S. Attorney has issued a response, agreeing to ‘comply with the law’ and open a grand jury investigation. This could mark the most substantial progress to date in the fight for 9/11 truth. The Lawyers’ Committee’s April 10th 52-page original Petition was accompanied by 57 exhibits and presented extensive evidence that explosives were used to destroy three WTC buildings. That evidence included independent scientific laboratory analysis of WTC dust samples showing the presence of high-tech explosives and/or incendiaries; numerous first-hand reports by First Responders of explosions at the WTC on 9/11; expert analysis of seismic evidence that explosions occurred at the WTC towers on 9/11 prior to the airplane impacts and prior to the building collapses; and expert analysis by architects, engineers, and scientists concluding that the rapid onset symmetrical near-free-fall acceleration collapse of three WTC high rise buildings on 9/11 exhibited the key characteristics of controlled demolition. The Lawyers’ Committee’s July 30th Amended Petition addresses several additional federal crimes beyond the federal bombing crime addressed in the original Petition. The Lawyers’ Committee concluded in the petitions that explosive and incendiary devices preplaced at the WTC were detonated causing the complete collapse of the WTC Twin Towers on 9/11 and increasing the tragic loss of life. [Source] This famous video of the free-fall collapse of WTC building 7 has haunted the internet for years, demanding justice. In it, you can see a virtually unharmed building being brought down in a matter of seconds, exactly like a professional controlled building demolition. The following interview with the founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth goes into great detail about the criminal nature of the cover up of the truth about these attacks. Final Thoughts Seventeen years after the worst terrorist attack in modern history, we may be finally seeing some official recognition that the official story is false and incomplete. Will the truth finally be revealed? Time will tell. While we wait, however, you can view the petition to the federal grand jury here.

Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore: global warming is “the greatest scam in history” - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 12 Jul '19

12 Jul '19

One world/ new world order "carbon tax" scam on its last legs... ‘Greatest scam in history’: Greenpeace co-founder thrashes global warming ‘brainwashing’ campaign https://www.rt.com/news/453382-greenpeace-founder-global-warming-scam/ Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore had harsh words for the modern environmental movement, calling global warming “the greatest scam in history” and denouncing the use of “fear and guilt” to push the message. “The climate catastrophe is strictly a fear campaign – well, fear and guilt,” Moore told Breitbart radio host Rebecca Mansour. “You’re afraid you’re killing your children because you’re driving them in your SUV and emitting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and you feel guilty for doing that. There’s no stronger motivation than those two.” This abomination that is occurring today in the climate issue is the biggest threat to the enlightenment that has occurred since Galileo. “Nothing else comes close,” Moore insisted, likening the contemporary environmental movement to “a toxic mix of ideology, of politics and religion.” “CO2 is the food for life! It’s not pollution,” the would-be heretic declared, claiming that the use of fossil fuels had actually “saved life from an early demise” because CO2 had been declining since the last ice age, with barely enough for the earth’s plant life to sustain itself, until humanity stepped into the breach during the Industrial Revolution. Moore, who founded the pioneering environmental activist group almost 50 years ago to protest nuclear war, met with an outpouring of support from conservatives and weary Democrats alike, after tweeting a scathing rebuke earlier this week to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, whose quixotic Green New Deal has become the standard-bearer of the 21st century environmental movement. He continued along those lines, criticizing the anti-climate-change movement for “co-opting and corrupting” politicians and allowing the environment to be treated as a political football without understanding of the meaning behind the rhetoric. …

peak WTF CNNPC: Trump sounds like Hitler, speech written by Putin - [MINISTRY] [PEACE]

Speaking of train wreck portents of the empire. Oh CNN, how is it that you excel so severely at being eternally mockable, the stock of the back stop of the raw stock of humiliating "Western" (wink wink, bris bris) lame stream media? CNN analyst claims Trump’s speech sounded like HITLER's, but script was written by... PUTIN?! https://www.rt.com/usa/452918-cnn-analyst-trump-hitler-putin/ A CNN analyst and Biden Institute adviser has raised eyebrows by comparing Donald Trump to Hitler for a turn of phrase once used by Joe Biden himself. But she still has no doubt Trump's speech was 'scripted by Putin'. Offering her thoughts on the president’s speech at the 2019 Conservative Action Conference (CPAC), Sam Vinograd told her CNN colleagues that she was horrified that Trump had spoken about “reclaiming our nation’s priceless heritage.” For Vinograd, this was clearly a message lifted straight from Mein Kampf. “His statement makes me sick, on a personal level, preserving your heritage, reclaiming our heritage, that sounds a lot like a certain leader that killed members of my family and about six million other Jews in the 1940s,” she said. She went on to lament how Trump had used his CPAC address to “spread misinformation and conspiracy theories." "He undermined the credibility of several of our institutions, he sewed divisions, he sewed confusion, he was speaking to his base, but he was also saying things that really looked like Vladimir Putin scripted his speech," Vinograd said.

Fwd: How Russia tampers with GPS
by coderman 03 Apr '19

03 Apr '19

1 big thing: How Russia tampers with GPS Illustration: Aïda Amer/Axios Satellite navigation systems like the Global Positioning System (GPS) make so many different pieces of our global infrastructure tick that most countries treat their signals as sacrosanct, knowing that interfering with them could have devastating effects. But a [new report](https://link.axios.com/click/16391119.5976/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYzRyZXBv… released Tuesday is giving us the first broad view of a country — Russia — that's pervasively tampering with the service. The big picture: Global navigation satellites — including GPS and less-used competing services like Russia's GLONASS — are coordinated networks of atomic clocks in outer space that can be used to triangulate precise locations or coordinate precise timing. Without them, everything from global shipping to financial markets would suffer. Why it matters: It's easy to see the military, transportation and pizza delivery importance of precise location information. The timing signals are extremely important, too. - The stock market needs precision timing to handle transactions down to the fractional second. - Precise timing is a critical component in telecommunications because it allows national and international networks to synchronize. The intrigue: Russia has been called out several times before for interfering with global positioning satellite systems, and it is known to capitalize on interfering with GPS for military and national security purposes like no other country. But before the [study by the C4ADS](https://link.axios.com/click/16391119.5976/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYzRyZXBvc… think tank, no one had really taken a scientific look across all of Russia's activities to see how constant the disruptions are. - To do that, C4ADS used University of Texas equipment placed on the International Space Station to monitor more than 9,800 suspected instances since 2016 where fraudulent global navigation signals appear to have been broadcast in the Russian Federation, as well as instances where similar signals were broadcast in Russian conflict zones like Crimea and Syria. C4ADS is not formally accusing the Russian government of being behind any of the fraudulent, "spoofed" signals. It would be impossible to make that kind of determination from the space station. But, but, but: It is clear that many of the instances largely serve Russian national interests. - In Russia, C4ADS found that several spoofed signals came from areas where Russian VIPs (like President Vladimir Putin) were traveling or that contained military or domestic facilities Russia wants to protect (including a "multimillion-dollar 'palace'" reportedly built for Putin). - Those areas broadcast the coordinates of airports in places where there are no airports. - The spoofing was frequent enough that C4ADS reports the Russian internet firm Yandex had to redesign its ride sharing app. Otherwise, it billed passengers for sudden trips to the airport whenever their driver passed through a spoofed area. - Airports that mysteriously seemed to appear in the Black Sea were so disruptive that the United States issued a warning to international cargo firms. Why airports? Many manufacturers of drones use GPS chips to prevent their products from flying into airport airspace. C4ADS suspects the spoofing was to prevent drone attacks or surveillance. Meanwhile, Russia also used spoofing in combat zones, particularly Syria, to try to limit attacks against its installations.
