VOTING TO DESTROY THE ESTABLISHMENT

“The inability to predict outliers implies the inability to predict the course of history”
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

“I know that history is going to be dominated by an improbable event, I just don’t know what that event will be.” Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

Nassim Taleb is a prickly arrogant SOB who doesn’t give a crap what intellectuals, academics, and other establishment elitists think about him. He has an Ivy league MBA, but despises everything about the curriculum of Ivy League MBA programs. He has a PhD, but scorns academics and their worship of theories and models. He enjoys poking holes in the storylines of the propaganda spewing corporate media. He glories in ridiculing the predictions of captured “experts” mouthing the talking points of whichever corporate interest is paying them blood money.

I read his brilliant Black Swan book back in 2008. It was a difficult read, but there were so many gems of wisdom throughout the book, it was a powerful tome predicting the financial collapse in real time. He wrote it in 2006. He understands the world doesn’t operate the way Ivy League models say it is supposed to operate. The world is propelled by black swans, not a normal distribution of the world. He was right in 2006 and he’s right now. The paragraph below has been making the rounds in the alternate media this past week. The establishment media would never publicize it, as their job is to protect the crumbling social order.

He sees what the pseudo intellectuals, highly paid pundit monkeys, think tank pay for play sages, and other mouthpieces for the establishment have failed to see. They didn’t see the 2008 black swan coming and they fail to grasp the black swan flying into their midst today. Taleb understands unexpected events of large magnitude and consequence and their dominant role in history. Trump is an extreme outlier who will play a large role in sweeping away the existing establishment. The “experts” foisted upon the masses by the dying legacy media are clueless as to what is really happening.

“The problem with experts is that they do not know what they do not know”
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

Trump’s blunt, angry, provocative, anti-establishment message has struck a chord among millions of disaffected Americans who have been ignored, abused, scorned, and shit on by the elitist establishment, banking cabal, corrupt politicians and government apparatchiks. The Deep State establishment has overstepped their bounds. Their ravenous pillaging of the national wealth through outsourcing millions of American jobs, largest mortgage control fraud in history, and outrageous gall in shifting their losing bets onto the backs of hard working Americans is about to bite them in the ass.

With real median household no higher than it was in 1988, the Wall Street criminal banks and their Madison Avenue maggot propaganda machine convinced the masses to add $2.8 trillion of consumer debt since 1988, a 500% increase. Meanwhile GDP has only gone up by 350%. The establishment has stolen the wages of the people while simultaneously enslaving them in chains of debt. TARP, ZIRP, QE, the $800 billion porkulus plan, Obamacare, non-stop social engineering, black lives matter, never ending wars, and now more jobs sacrificed at the altar of TPP, have pushed working class Americans beyond the point of no return. They are finally fighting back.

When you read Taleb’s assessment of our interconnected fragile world written in 2006, you see a mind far more advanced than the phony establishment acolytes appearing on CNN, MSNBC, and Fox on a daily basis:

“Globalization creates interlocking fragility, while reducing volatility and giving the appearance of stability. In other words it creates devastating Black Swans. We have never lived before under the threat of a global collapse. Financial Institutions have been merging into a smaller number of very large banks. Almost all banks are now interrelated. So the financial ecology is swelling into gigantic, incestuous, bureaucratic banks – when one falls, they all fall. The increased concentration among banks seems to have the effect of making financial crisis less likely, but when they happen they are more global in scale and hit us very hard. We have moved from a diversified ecology of small banks, with varied lending policies, to a more homogeneous framework of firms that all resemble one another. True, we now have fewer failures, but when they occur … I shiver at the thought.”― Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

Not only did Taleb grasp what was about to happen in the immediate future, he foresaw the global black swans which have blown up the Middle East and threaten to blow up the world:

“Dictatorships that do not appear volatile, like, say, Syria or Saudi Arabia, face a larger risk of chaos than, say, Italy, as the latter has been in a state of continual political turmoil since the second war.”Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

Taleb’s current assessment that votes for Trump and Sanders are actually votes to destroy the establishment is entirely accurate, in my opinion. One year ago, no one on the face of the earth thought either one of these men had any chance of getting even 1% support for president of the United States. Anyone who says otherwise is a liar. Jeb and Hillary were awaiting coronation as the establishment selections who would keep the status quo and continue the warfare/welfare policies of the corporate fascist surveillance state. The establishment and their paid pundits on propaganda TV were fat, content, smug and happy.

Trump was considered an oddball billionaire reality TV star self promoter. An impartial assessment would say he was an intelligent man, brilliant marketer of himself and his brand, with a spotty record in the casino business, but generally a successful real estate mogul, with no strong political ties. There was absolutely no forewarning of a dynamic popular uprising anti-establishment presidential campaign on the horizon. Sanders has been a black sheep socialist in Congress for the last 25 years. He was the Ron Paul of the left, ignored, shunned and belittled. None of the talking heads or spokesmodels on the MSM faux news networks thought he could garner a vote, let alone challenge Queen Hillary.

I have to admit I didn’t take Trump’s candidacy seriously at first. I knew the mood of the country was darkening. I knew the economic recovery storyline was a fraud. I knew the average American was struggling to make ends meet. I knew the Wall Street criminal banks and their Federal Reserve puppets had saved themselves and their corporate cronies while throwing senior citizens and savers under the bus. I didn’t know they would rally around Trump’s bombastic anti-illegal immigration, anti-corporate trade deal, anti-establishment message in such large numbers. But they have. I was wrong.

You can only agree or disagree with Trump in a general sense, because there are no real specifics or track record to assess. Slogans and broad pronouncements don’t change how a country is governed. That is beneficial for his candidacy, as emotion and the mood of the country are driving his support. He has capitalized on the anger, disillusionment, and cynicism of the public to propel a campaign that can’t be stopped by the establishment. The linear thinkers in the establishment are dumbfounded by this staggering turn of events. Their protected, isolated, posh lives are being turned upside down. Trump is the large deviation black swan ruining their bell curve lives.

It seems the establishment is the turkey in Taleb’s revision of belief tale:

“Consider a turkey that is fed every day. Every single feeding will firm up the bird’s belief that it is the general rule of life to be fed every day by friendly members of the human race “looking out for its best interests,” as a politician would say. On the afternoon of the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, something unexpected will happen to the turkey. It will incur a revision of belief.” Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

The plutocracy of criminal Wall Street bankers, pliant central bankers, clueless Ivy League academics, internet media moguls, billionaire corporate chieftains, bought off politicians, and their parasitic toadies live in gated compounds, fly on their luxurious Gulfstream jets, are chauffeured to their exclusive dinner parties, have heavily armed private security services, send their kids to exclusive private schools, have private doctors at their beck and call, and never feel the need to mingle with the lowly plebs. They have secretive meetings on private islands off Georgia to decide what’s best for the easily manipulated masses – control of the banking system in 1913 and stopping Trump today.

As a libertarian, much of what Trump is selling does not appeal to my view of the world and how it should function best. But it doesn’t matter what I think at this point. The country is being catapulted by emotion and a wave of anti-establishment sentiment. The establishment is thrashing about in the death throes of a corrupt multi-decade run. They will resort to violence in order to maintain their power, control, and wealth. But this time it will likely fail. Enough people are choosing an assertive leader to follow to blow this thing sky high.

Specific policies are meaningless. This dynamic is driven by pure emotion. People are voting for the enemy of their enemy. No one knows where this will lead. It will likely lead to more violence, civil chaos, economic turmoil, assassination attempts, and eventually war. One thing is certain, the establishment will fall. Some people think Trump is part of a master plan by the establishment to gain even more power. Anything is possible, but keeping the masses sedated and focused on their iGadgets seems to be a better play for the establishment. Allowing the anger and contempt for the existing social order to be unleashed through Trump’s rhetoric is not coming from the standard establishment playbook.

It seems the people are finally beginning to heed Howard Beale’s plea in the 1974 movie Network:

All I know is that first, you’ve got to get mad.

You’ve gotta say, “I’m a human being, goddammit! My life has value!”

So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window, open it, and stick your head out and yell,

“I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this anymore!!”

We now can plainly see the left wing and neo-con wing of the establishment Party both have the same agenda. These faux believers in free speech are doing their utmost to shut down Trump’s right to free speech. They believe in speech they can control. They believe in pre-approved establishment speech designed to manipulate, mold, and form the opinions of the masses. They are using every dirty trick in their bags to derail Trump. I think they will fail, as the mood of the country grows angrier by the day. Taleb’s assessment about the establishment is accurate. His warning below should also provide some perspective on where we are going. The tens of millions of Americans who have been screwed by the establishment are gathering together behind Trump. Will he lead the country in the right direction? Going it alone against the establishment has failed. It looks like we are going to find out what happens when enough people bind together to destroy the establishment. It’s going to be a wild ride. Prepare yourself and your loved ones.

“Alas, one cannot assert authority by accepting one’s own fallibility. Simply, people need to be blinded by knowledge-we are made to follow leaders who can gather people together because the advantages of being in groups trump the disadvantages of being alone. It has been more profitable for us to bind together in the wrong direction than to be alone in the right one. Those who have followed the assertive idiot rather than the introspective wise person have passed us some of their genes. This is apparent from a social pathology: psychopaths rally followers.”Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable

HSF, absolutely hits the mark. I’ve met several well-educated successful people that will admit to not having read a book since their college days. Certainly they are not curious and self-taught.

Homer
Homer

procrastinator–It’s true Trump once in office can’t change much. But…It is the people behind Trump that will change things. That’s you.

Kill Bill–Look for bigger government if Trump wins the presidency? Maybe and Maybe not!

I’VE BEEN WAITING A LONG TIME TO SAY THIS.

This seems like an appropriate time to do just that.

Government is an organism. It acts and lives like an organism. Bacterial colonies don’t grow forever. When anything grow exponentially, they meet the limits of growth. Trees don’t grow to the sky. It is a mathematical certainty that ‘limits’ exist in the Universe, in Nature.

Government is an organism and like any organism it grows, which is why government is constantly growing. It’s survival depends on it growing. That ‘need to grow’ is why you never see government contracting. Contraction is death just like in any organism.

All organisms grow by taking in nutrients from the their Environment. It’s the same with governments. They take in nutrients in the form of money or your life’s energy and time which allows them to sustain themselves and grow. Most people think of themselves as part of the organism, the government’. But, they are not. Most people are the Environment. That which the organism feeds upon. YOU ARE THE ENVIRONMENT.

And grow they do, from local governments to state governments to central governments to world government, the march is unstoppable, ever expanding. Or, so it seems.

Nature has its limits. History makes it abundantly clear that no government lasts forever. But…Governments do re-invent themselves to assure their survival. War breaks government into a myriad of pieces only, like the silvery enemy android in “The Terminator”, to reassemble itself. Look at Japan and Germany after the WWII. Governments are in a state of stress brought on by Environmental decline, a financial Armageddon . Can they re-invent themselves?

This time it REALLY is different. It’s not the organism dying of old age, or its institutions and processes becoming sclerotic, becoming less and less effective, and trying to birth a new version of itself. This time it’s the Environment that’s dying. It’s you that’s dying. It’s what the government feeds upon that’s dying and it’s happening world wide. It’s a mass die off of the Environment, you.

Like all organisms, governments will become ruthless in its attempt to survive. They will go to any length, including mass theft, war, and mass genocide. They have a simple mind, eat, grow, and reproduce.

The Environment is going to deny them their very sustenance. It really is between you or them and people are waking up to that reality. Trump and Bernie are evidence of a changing consciousness.

Trumps campaign slogan should be, “Vote Trump or vote same ole, same ole.”

flash,
I hear what you’re saying about the likely end result of our multi culti rainbow nation

The only bone I have to pick with the idea is that all demographic studies assume entropy in terms of economic change.

The third world right now is propped up by the first world. If our farmers were not farming as they are, Africa wouldn’t have a population of 2 billion people. India wouldn’t have a population of 1 billion. Look at Yemen’s population explosion since it started getting US Aid as an excellent example.
Minority populations have skyrocketed because we’ve been feeding them.

IF the US (and EU) go into a tailspin, that aid will dry up, and so will our care and feeding of the FSA. At the rate things are going, where Idiocracy is winning out against the productive, you will reach a point at which first world life saving food and medicine are no longer available to the poor. You can already see it in the way Obamacare backdoor rations healthcare by making it so expensive that many cannot afford it. You can see it in single payer nations where people wait so long for care that they die. And that’s during relatively stable times, imagine those systems during a depression worse than the one in the 1930s. Then you’ll be right back where we were in places like Victorian England and Gilded Age urban America, where the educated and productive had decent lives and everyone else’s were nasty, brutish and short.

The ONLY thing that has propelled liberalism to the pinnacle it now occupies is vast surpluses of food and supplies, enough excess to be able to successfully paper over the utter debacle that liberalism is at heart and keep the lie alive. Chicago, Detroit and Baltimore haven’t burned to the ground yet because there are still enough actual producers producing to fed the beasts. When they have deficits and disasters, they get bailed out. When there isn’t any bail out money left, they will burn.

It used to be normal to have 6 kids and only raise 2 or so of them to adulthood. Right now, western productivity is allowing all 6 to survive. Remove the economic engine, and you’ll be back to only 2 or 3.

It is a self correcting mechanism, long term.

I went by a church awhile back and a sign on the lawn said, “Jesus Saves”. A couple of day ago, I went by a sign that said, “Jesus Saves” and underneath it said, “At Madison Federal Credit Union”

Hillary’s going to save us by following in Obama’s footsteps, Obama Care, War, and Political Cronyism.

Bernie’s going to save us by redistributing other peoples wealth and giving everyone a free lunch.

Trump’s going to save us by building a wall and bringing jobs back to America.

And Jesus is going to save us by…that’s the problem. Hillary, Bernie, and Trump are going to save us. Jesus isn’t going to save anybody. I hate to break it to the Evangelicals, but Jesus never was going to save anybody. The idea that all one has to do is ‘believe’ and we will be saved or that Jesus is going to come again and right a wrong and He’ll show them is unrealistic thinking.

I can’t think of a place in the bible that says that Jesus is the Savior and believe me, there are a lot of versions of the bible out there. That’s Savior with a capital S. Luke 1:47 says God is my Savior. (capital S) The other references are to savior, rescuer not Savior, Rescuer.

Jesus was the pattern for all. He gave mankind the ‘keys to Heaven’ which were hidden, closed, to mankind by mankind’s selfish withdrawal from the Spiritual. You have to save yourself. You have to do the hard work yourself and it is hard work to return, but now you have a way. Jesus speaking as the Christ, said, “I am the Way and nobody gains the Kingdom of Heaven, but through Me.” Follow Me!

Jesus isn’t going to save you any more then Hillary, Bernie, or Trump will save you. You have to do the hard work and save yourself. Preppers, seeing the handwriting on the wall are saving themselves.

You can sit back and wait for someone to save you, but you just might be waiting a very long time.

My favorite parable is the “Prodigal Son”. That was the great hope that Jesus gave to the masses, to mankind. That is the story of God and how mankind left God with his inheritance and squandered it and in remorse and suffering made his way back to his Father’s kingdom to the joy of his Father. And…while a long way off his Father ran to him meeting him half way throwing his robe around him and rejoicing in his return. That’s the story of God, of Man and His relationship to you. It is rich in symbolism. You have to make the first move, tho, God is patiently waiting. Eternity is a long, long time.

Who Is a Threat To You? “Dangerous People to Avoid After the Collapse”

http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/who-is-a-threat-to-you-dangerous-people-to-avoid-after-the-collapse_03092016
– MEDICALLY DEPENDENT/DRUG ADDICTS: People who are dependent on medication may become desperate for drugs when prescriptions fall through, and could become unstable, dangerous or a liability to your survival plan. Most wouldn’t mean

– PANICKED/WEAK MINDED: Emotionally unstable, prone to upset, who can’t keep their cool under pressure and those who are temperamental are difficult to trust, and who put your life in danger

– GANGS/CRIMINALS/LOOTERS: Then of course there are always going to be violent gangs, looters and outright criminals. It’s pretty obvious what they want, but it may still surprise you how far they are willing to go to get it. Only, some criminals won’t be as easy to spot, and historically they have taken advantage of hard working, prepared and ultimately naive individuals using any and every tactic they can think of. Keep in mind, this includes color-of-law rogue government agents, too; historically the appearance of authority will be used to gain entry, take advantage and catch you off guard. During Hurricane Katrina, some cops were caught on tape looting Wal-Mart… just imagine the type of stuff that wasn’t seen by cameras.

– WANNA-BE LEADERS: Narcissists, selfish, egotistical, grandiose and those willing to use psychology and tactics to gain advantage of your group and your resources, let you down when a plan needs to come to fruition, or turn tail when the going gets tough. These people are in it for themselves, would create a mutiny if they thought they had the leverage to do so, and will be even more undependable than the easily panicked and the addicted.

– ALSO BEWARE OF: The above category is closely related to those who are overly macho, those who hold obvious and disproportionate gun fetishes, those prone to uncalled for paranoia, the weaselly and conniving salesman types, and the foregone-conclusion doomsday nihilist who secretly wants to fulfill his entimes fantasy and die in a fight, rather than living to fight another day. There are other variations of these types, but few of them will be all that helpful when reality sets in, regardless of how big they talk as things gear up.

– PARASITES AND NOSY PEEPERS: Perhaps the most dangerous type of person, at least immediately when the SHTF, is the one who knows about your prepping, your supplies and stocks, and expects to come over to your place and join you without contributing any skills or having prepped in advance. Even worse, if a reward or a position of power is offered, this person is far-too-willing to turn you in and turn you over to a FEMA camp if they can derive any benefit. Though this individual may be a nosy neighbor or family friend during times of normalcy, they are a very dangerous liability for you and your family during times of emergency. Here’s what to do when those types come knocking…

Homer, the big problem I have with my fellow Christians is their ability to disconnect with current political events. The think that when TEOTWAWKI moment arrives they will all be raptured up in the sky to meet Jesus while the sinners stay here on earth and burn.
There have been millions made off the the Rapture myth by charlatan preachers and book sellers alike.The danger of this unbiblical prophesy is that it frees the Christian from taking personal responsibility for standing unyielding on principle and Christian values. .Afterall when Satan gains majority control over the will of the people , Christians will not be fed to lions again, but be raptured away. Or so they believe.

Here’s another one from Trump this morning after the next round of primaries: He said that if he arrives at the convention just a hundred or so delegates short of an outright majority and he is not just given the nomination anyway, that his supporters are likely to riot. Way to instigate your supporters, Donald!

Anyone running for political office who sincerely tries to undermine the corrupt establishment either won’t be elected or if elected will be blocked from achieving their goals. If by miracle they begin to actually achieve any real reforms, they will be either set up for scandal – or end up the victim of a “accident”.

We desperately need drastic political/financial reforms across the board but they won’t happen because a majority of the public and big money special interests don’t want the reforms because they must protect whatever financial benefits, subsidies, or tax breaks they receive.

So we will continue on the path of economic decline until various events occur that finally cause collapse.

Excellent article, however, in your admission that you underestimated the velocity of the rise of Trump’s voter following, there still appears to be a partial lack of understanding of what really drove and continues to drive Trump’s voters. Yes there is a factor of emotionality along with other outlying factors. But most of his support comes from voters that are aware of several cold hard deadly facts that are not a play on emotions, but are a logical reaction akin to a situation where you wake up one morning and realize your country has been sold out from underneath you. For me it was a gradual realization. From Obama’s first campaign speeches that were hours of bluster and no substance, to his race baiting stances on police vs. criminal instances and lawless attempts to change America’s constitution through executive actions, blackmail, racial division etc. When this dictator decreed that the Islamic murder of 14 plus American citizens in San Bernardino was an example of “workplace violence” and ,by the way, was a result of climate change (And to top it off Loretta Lynch decides she’s going to prosecute any American citizen that exercise their 1st amendment right to free speech if it offends islam!) I began to wonder what kind of twilight zone we’re living in. Then on December 17, 2015 house resolution 569 was put forth and signed by HOUSE DEMOCRATS. I decided to take a crash course of learning and enlightenment this winter. Folks these are indeed dark days. Things are not what they seem. Our beautiful country that was, is fast becoming no more. What the hell are sanctuary cities? A Philadelphia police chief and his associate (both black) stand up and give a correct account to the press of an islamic terror induced attack on a Philadelphia police officer. Immediately following their account white mayor Jim Kenney who is reminiscent of one of Joseph Stalin’s “useful idiots” reports that the attack had nothing to do with islam. CNN, CNBC, etc. push the liberal agenda. Censored to their, and whatever middle east interests own and back them. College campuses have become liberal America hating “things”. Why the hell wasn’t the conservative wing warning the American public at large what was going down before our very eyes. If you want real information you have to look for it. All I can say is there must have been a lot of people smarter than me that must have been in the know much sooner than me.

swell–I was aware of what was happening 45 yrs ago. My uncle in the 40s and 50s, when ever he heard on the radio the words that America was a democracy would shout out, “It’s a Republic not a democracy.”

swell, you can’t convince people who refuse to believe. I don’t spout out to family and friends anymore.
The tide of humanity will take you where ever, and you can’t fight it. You can’t live with delusion either. Once you’ve been to the city you can’t go back to the farm, so to speak.

I will tell you about the power of belief and I have never forgotten that lesson.

In the 40s, I was about 7 yrs old. In Seattle there was a playground called Collins Field. It had its array of swings, teeter totters, monkey bars, etc. In the center it had a wading pool which was about 1′ to 1 1/2′ deep. This place was a gathering ground for all the neighboring community. Nobody had televisions in those day. We kids entertained ourselves.

Well, at the end of the day, only me and one other kid who was a little older than me remained in that pool. Everyone else had gone home. He and I were in the middle of the pool where the drain was and he reach down into the murky water and pulled up a quarter and he reached down again and pulled up a dime. I knelt there in disbelief watching him pull up coins. I truly thought that he was playing a trick on me. He must have pulled up 70 to 80 cents from the bottom of that pool. In the 40s to a kid, that was a kings ransom. You could buy candy for 6 months with that. By the way that was silver coins, too. I never pulled up one coin. I didn’t believe it.

I have thought about that incident all my life. I learned how strong beliefs are in governing behavior. It seems that all the lessons that I have learned in life have come the hard way. I think that lesson was the basis of my questioning everything to the dismay of my parents, teachers, and clergy. Telling the truth always comes at a high price which is why you rarely see it, especially in politics or any established dogma.

After all, they didn’t crucify Jesus because He was a conformist.

Question your beliefs and especially question the beliefs of others.

Whether Trump, Hillary, Bernie, Obama, or anyone else. To know what the beliefs of another person are, watch what they do. Everyone and I mean EVERYONE acts consistent with their beliefs. They may lie to you like Hillary does but their actions betray them. Perhaps Trump really believes what he is saying, as opposed to Hillary who’s an out and out liar, and if he should become president reality may modify his beliefs and he may act differently. Reality modifies beliefs and does so unremorsefully.

Think about Santa Claus, still believe in him?

Hell yes, I still believe in Santa Claus, only his name is Bernie Sanders.
