Punished regardless - presumption of guilt - arbitrary power - [MINISTRY] [PEACE]
by Ryan Carboni 11 Jun '19

11 Jun '19

But people are convicted based on metadata, the most famous account is that of Jeffrey Sterling, who was convicted of being in the same building as a journalist. Regardless, I'm unclear on the harm of telling the press that the US government had provided nuclear weapon designs to a Russian scientist working with Iran.

Punished regardless - presumption of guilt - arbitrary power - [MINISTRY] [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 11 Jun '19

11 Jun '19

Zerowedgie with a foundational piece on (just one) broad example of the loss of our fundamental rights - in this particular case, the presumption of innocence has long been out the window. This is obvious since the '80s random "breath test" stops (the primary subject of this article), and has crept solidly into judicial process - notwithstanding the puffery of "ze glorious Western regime" - prove your innocence or suffer, fail to respond to someone else's "The Secret" (negative averment) bullshit, and the courts WILL and DO take it that you consented to that bullshit (criminal AND civil matters - from much painful personal experience)! Bradley/ Chelsea Manning - jail - trial - moar jail - pardon - freedom - government chasing a trial against Assange and so haul's Manning back into jail. Like what in the royal firetrucking firetruck? Yes grasshopper, indeed a royal firetrucking firetruck already! The glorious Western regime, the purported land(s) of the allegedly free, is soon to have its kleptomaniacal ass handed to it on a destitute platter of karma. And it's about firetrucking time. "Our" elites, "our" politicians, "our" judges and "our" international bankers, have sold us out, pillaged us poor and destroyed our nations, communities and ultimately families. And yes, each individual plays their part - there is no absolute "they" or "them" out there to pin all the blame on. We each play our part. Yes certain (((international bankers))) play an outsized part, but who has really undeniably staunchly refused to take a random breath test, or drug test, or join the yellow vests "for as long as it takes to overturn the government"? Failure to object is tacit consent. Know this. This is the karmic principle of "your" elites "governing" you. Nice golden cages, bread and circuses, daily cotton wool sugar floss. Good luck all, Punished Regardless https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-10/punished-regardless

false dichotomies - gun grabs n confuhscations - hold ye gov to account - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 11 Jun '19

11 Jun '19

Here's one of 'em false dichotomies that TPTB love to throw at the wide swath of unsuspectin' swashbutterin gilt-caged do littles: "No point holding guns, since the government got bigger guns, and more of 'em" "You and your puny rifle ain't never gonna hold your nuke-wielding government to account - who the hell are you kidding?" etc etc The false dichotomy is also a strawman, a false premise, etc: The only freedom benefit to individual gun ownership, is holding your government to account, and that will never be achieved, so give up already. and etc variations on the false dichomatic theme. The truth is there are many benefits (and responsibilities) to owning guns, such as certain situations for self defence (thieves, possibly), others where a gun "in self defence" may be a liability (defending against the police, whilst not in a civil war), others where guns and much ammo may well assist against the police such as when surviving within a society that is either in civil war, or in serious breakdown - the famous post apopalypse (or "on the way to apocalypse) scenario. The rarity of a society breakdown or civil war scenario, is irrelevant to your right to prepare for such a scenario. The possible dangers of wielding a gun in close proximity to an adversary, is irrelevant to your RIGHT to wield a gun in close proximity to an adversary. The "liberal Left" (one of the greatest Ministry double speak jokes of all time) proclaim the lack of notable reasons to wield a gun "for the time being, at least in your suburb, at least today", as the reason to take away your RIGHT to choose IF and WHEN and WHERE to wield a gun - such decisions are part of your rights, not a privilege. The government says all rights, even the right to survive, is mere privilege. The sovereign says all capacities are rights to be exercised by personal will and/ or discretion and therefore are natural inherent rights. That which is natural and inherent to my being, can never be a privilege except that I give up the original right, give up my original jurisdiction to my own will over my own natural capacities. Use it or lose it muffaluggerah! Zerowedgie with some classic perfection roast: Kiwis 'Just Say No' To Gun Ban https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-10/kiwis-just-say-no-gun-ban

Update on possible PoC I had obtained
by Ryan Carboni 10 Jun '19

10 Jun '19

The possible PoC was provided to me via, in non-descript terminology, a file-sharing service where a number of people access files from various servers world wide. The service does track user agents and IP addresses, so it is not anonymous, and is obviously not meant to be. I received the PoC after requesting a multimedia file in exchange for the service's brownie points. I intuitively felt the source to be suspicious and opened the file through an atypical means and found it to be corrupted. I am willing to sign an affidavit attesting to this in exchange for legal aid, and I believe sunlight is the best disinfectant. Presumably other people have obtained the same file, unless the service was operating under legal coercion. Regardless, all elements of the matter would have to be published in open court if this was "legal" so whoever it is from, they have continued to stay hidden for unknown motives.

People are convicted on metadata
by Ryan Carboni 09 Jun '19

09 Jun '19

People are convicted on metadata. If not that, than motive. If neither of those are present, physical evidence is nearly meaningless. The legal process is meant to prevent not simply criminal corruption, but simpler forms, such as padding crime stats, or innate bias, both of which can be manipulated. To some degree, the founding fathers were aware of them, and so are judges. The entire legal system is crafted based upon multiple perspectives of how society functions, although it is quickly changing to one where the legal system is that of a perspective of he who receives orders. I posited a question once to someone, "What if you were the Nazi?" All I got was, "I don't understand." "Where does responsibility end, the person who sets the policy, the person who writes the policy, the person who interprets the policy, the person who gives orders, the person who carries it out?" *silence* All I could prove is I have potential and it is being stymied in some way. How does one prove a counterfactual to people who just aren't hearing it? Or to put it another way, how can millions of card carrying party members ever be wrong?

“First they came” … Crowder and other plantation idjits 'tube banned … Innernet speaks back
by Zenaan Harkness 07 Jun '19

So First they came and 1984 is in full swing as most 'round here are well aware. So "Crowder" has been de-Shopify'ed, and folks are literally all "thus begins the slippery slope of censorship": https://mobile.twitter.com/CalebJHull/status/1136396656499466245 Which is funny as dog shirts of course. Thankfully 100s, possibly thousands of voices are pointing out the bloody obvious, for one rando example: Fuck of with your faux concern. Where were you on Anglin and Weev? https://t.co/GvVYTMeRfZ Reed it and peep: As Everyone is Shut Down, Andrew Anglin is Given Credit as the Man These Cuckolds Should Have Defended! http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/as-everything-shutdown-andrew-anglin-is-given… (For the uninitiated, install "Tor Browser" or a Tor browser alternative: https://www.torproject.org/download/ https://vpncritic.com/tor-alternatives/ Good luck,)

Self-evident victim of government misconduct
by Ryan Carboni 06 Jun '19

06 Jun '19

There are things are a difficult to imagine, one of them among others is receiving a college degree in criminal justice and not understanding it. I don't know how much it is worth to go from a prosecutor to a defense attorney, but apparently it is worth the life of a person I had never met, but is something the government wants to remind me about from time to time because they've been assigned to my case and have nothing better to do. A little over two years ago LAPD arrested me for protesting in front of their police station, I was shouting the "police are gangstalking me", to call the kettle black. Of course I was right out side the door so they stood me up, had me face the wall for half an hour to an hour, kept me in a cell for an half and hour to an hour, gave me back my shoes without laces, it was all BS, because they know they are harassing me. Now, any reasonable civil libertarian, if they had any reasonable access to any timeline of this, would say the government is wrong, and this is extrajudicial harassment. The accusation doesn't even make sense in the first place. Regardless, if this is the secret the government want to keep, all for the sake of my disatisfaction, I suggest they should do their work without pay henceforth, if they enjoy it so much.

healthy global banking: "My Bank In Denmark Just Offered Me A Negative Rate Of Interest To Borrow Money" - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 06 Jun '19

06 Jun '19

You just -know- the global banking system is super healthy when they're literally offering negative interest rates to encourage folks to take out loans. This is the banking system so flushed with debt that they can't get pidgeons to take out more loans, yet since the fundamental of the game is control, more debt means more control means more winning, so more debt must be obtained "at any cost". Read it and prepare for broad systemic collapse, folks: "My Bank In Denmark Just Offered Me A Negative Rate Of Interest To Borrow Money" https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-05/my-bank-denmark-just-offered-me-n… And to show how wonderful moar debt really is, Italy leads the way to dumping the rump: Brace For Impact: Italy Poised To Launch Euro Parallel Currency https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-05/brace-impact-italy-poised-launch-… Just as well y'all got free(!) markets and capitalism <snigger>: Blain: "In 35 Years Of Markets, This Is The Stupidest Moment I’ve Ever Seen" https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-05/blain-35-years-markets-stupidest-… US employment is at a high, the labour market is tightening, there is minimal real inflation and the stock market is off to the races because the Fed says its ready to ease if trade tensions impact the stock market economy. In 35 years of markets, this is perhaps the stupidest moment I’ve ever seen. On Friday we’re likely to see another decent US employment number – which should give lie to the illusion the US needs zero rates. But a strong US jobs report will cause the spoilt brat of a stock market to wail, in fear it might not get another lollipop of easing… If I had any hair left to tear out, would. There is a danger Powell et al seem are confusing the Dow and S&P for the health of the economy, thereby making the Fed complicit in the ultimate market distortion that’s being going on since someone dreamt up QE. The World’s most important central bank is missing the point completely, and more or less promising to bail out stock markets if Trade Tension causes them to weaken. That is an open check. …
