Wow. Just wow. O. M. G. I can't believe it's not journalism. It's, like, you know, like 2018 already like already like. Like wow! Everybody's fav MSM monthly rag, that rad JQ-pumping bleeding edge black hole sucking insanity to infinity, CNN, has actually investigated an actual Russian troll farm. These investigative sharks jump hoops to take no prisoners in their shark jumping exercise - did I mention CNN jumps the shark? We're talking real life Kremlin catering contracts, to real life dumpster dive - CNN style FTW‼ There's even a top shelf food pun, adding a little spice in order to really dish-up CNN's chops in mashing a juicy smorgasboard of nothing-burgers into some tasty morsel of high-carb fibre-free entertainment sugar ... without the sugar. Since food-puns are so difficult (hell, I've tried and failed), yet so hip like, a few folks round these parts ought be up for top-dog salaries at CNN (who've tried and failed 3 times now to sell themselves to the highest bidder - I mean ANY bidder - please won't you bid for CNN?? Pretty please with carbs on top? Perhaps you've got a bitcoin you could throw their way up to good value?) There's a ... chance ... you've seen this guy (Matthew Chance) before, or perhaps his ... luck ... has run out. There! I did a pun for y'all! Infestigative journaljism at its best. <echo> <echo> <echo> ... laughing their arses off at us ... <///> https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-02-19/cnn-roots-through-russian-garbage… CNN Roots Through Russian Garbage, Gets Tossed Out Of Russian "Troll Farm" At least Amurricans are logical (or something): https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-02-20/gun-control-advocates-are-now-arg… The Poles want their story told: https://www.rt.com/news/419370-polocaust-museum-non-jewish-victims/ ‘Polocaust museum’: Polish minister calls for commemoration of non-Jewish victims of WWII and the Dutch and the Germans (finally) are getting fed up: Newcomer Euroskeptic, anti-migrant party jumps to 2nd spot in Dutch polls https://www.rt.com/news/419352-netherlands-right-fvd-party/ https://www.fort-russ.com/2018/02/far-right-party-gains-momentum-in.html The rightward, "conservative" in some ways, nationalist wave is heating up.

[MINISTRY] Chicago University - leading the world in free speech
by Zenaan Harkness 19 Feb '18

Chicago University professors - leading the world in free speech ... ... or something :D 100 Chicago Professors "Propose To Exclude Viewpoints They Find Objectionable" https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-02-18/100-chicago-professors-propose-ex… …“It’s been quite interesting to watch this because, as you can imagine, there are many people who are opposed to Steve Bannon and wish that he hadn’t been invited,” Mr. Zimmer says. Nonetheless, “the students have been remarkable. The student government had a ‘town hall’ with the faculty member who invited Bannon.” The students ran the event, “and they were very clear that there was to be no disruption, that they wanted to have a conversation.” But at American universities, it isn’t just the students you need to worry about. More than 100 Chicago professors have signed an open letter to Mr. Zimmer objecting to Mr. Bannon’s invitation: “The university should model inclusion for a country that is reeling from the consequences of racism, xenophobia, and hate.” They propose to “model inclusion” by excluding viewpoints they find objectionable: “We believe that Bannon should not be afforded the platform and opportunity to air his hate speech on this campus.” …

Japan opens asylum floodgates in 2017
by Zenaan Harkness 18 Feb '18

18 Feb '18

Well seems Japan's catching up to the West on the Asylum seeker front - 19,628 asylum seekers in 2017, something of a record! This is an 80% growth! And 20 of these applications were accepted! "Immigration is a controversial subject in Japan, where many pride themselves on cultural and ethnic homogeneity, even as the population ages and its workforce shrinks." Damn! Those open minded and accomodating Japs, more welcoming than Israelis!‼ Seriously, that's quite a feat... “Twenty people is way too few. Judging from our experience in refugee support, I believe more people should be accepted,” said Eri Ishikawa, of the Japan Association for Refugees. Welp, that's working out for them ... Seriously, we need organisations with the efficacy of Eri Ishikawa in our countries - at least the Japanese are still allowed a little pride in their own people and culture. "Open borders" - only possible with "democracy". https://dailystormer.name/japan-19628-asylum-applications-in-2017-only-20-a… Japan: 19,628 Asylum Applications in 2017 – Only 20 Approved

Computers are designed that in-order to secure them you need a multi-million dollar budget
by Ryan Carboni 17 Feb '18

17 Feb '18

Computers are designed that in-order to secure them you need a multi-million dollar budget. Think I said this before. The only entities with the economy of scale to accomplish this are wealthy governments and multinational corporations. Obviously in terms of relative security: Xen KVM / Virtualbox OpenVZ / Jails BSD-type OSes Windows 10 Linux-type OSes Windows NT Windows on DOS You live in a world where after the Morris worm, everyone thought they should move data onto computers. The NSA doesn't have wiretap everything, they just have to hack the hackers who hack and amass all sorts of data. It's hard to avoid coming to certain conclusions when the entire civil liberty movement so mismanaged their efforts that in response to Snowden the only thing that happened is that our phone companies are required to store metadata instead the of the NSA (although I'm sure the NSA keeps a backup). I don't know why the government acted as if Snowden was a disaster. The government managed the response to Snowden so well that it becomes hard to conclude that top secret information is the world ender that it is claimed to be. Hillary Clinton claims that top secret information is actually news articles or something. I'd expect the ACLU to have some friendly reporters to speak on their behalf. Or to be able to assemble what Ryan Shapiro is accused of, a mosaic. It is a real mystery. I just... can't... fathom... so... difficult... I'd never imagine the ACLU would say that due process should be withheld in a single case. Big mystery. I don't see the big deal about this Russia investigation, as far as I can see, people can be literally told tomorrow's winning lotto numbers, and they would refuse to buy a ticket because they don't like the information. People are investing huge amount of time and energy to projects which don't accomplish anything. This device is libre! "What does that solve?" It is libre! "What does it do?" The same things, but not as many of them. Just to be clear, the major issues of the day are (in my favored order): 1. Zero-day stockpiles. (cyber munitions shouldn't be used against enemies of the state, but to protect citizens) 2. Mass surveillance. 3. Public-private sector collusion. The issues that GPL solves are: 1. I'm not contributing this code for free so others can profit off of it. The issues that Tor solves are: 1. Preventing people without top secret clearances from finding out what you're doing. The issues that non-profits solves are: 1. Reducing tax payment by twenty cents for every dollar spent. You people are so incredibly misinformed and insistent on incorrect information, it is unbelievable. It is hard to conclude anything but that everyone is on a make-work project to look like they are doing a good job, but everything stays the same. There is no need for disinformation, for some reasons the Russians too are terrified of reality.

Pinhead, to actually believe that. You think that only morons believe their eyes. Blacks need more supervision than other races, are less inclined to accept it, hence tended to be enslaved at a higher rate than other races. As a result black Africa always had more slaves than they could handle, and tended to eat the surplus.
