News Briefs – 04/26/2022

Here are some news stories that might be of interest. Most articles will be more or less summarized in the headline. You can skim the headlines and summaries, and click the links if they are of interest. Keep in mind, many of these reports are products of an unreliable news media, so although they will be what people are hearing and talking about, there is no guarantee any one of them is necessarily correct, and we have had cases of outright lies make it onto these pages.

This is a link to the comments section for our beloved phone-posters who have been having trouble finding where the comments begin.

Lowell keeps posting these damn Garand Thumb videos when I don’t have enough time for what is already in front of me. But the latest was a freeze test of common handguns, where he soaked them all and then let them freeze in the extreme cold, and went to see if they would go bang when he flipped the safety off and pulled the trigger. It might be a good test of resistance of dirt and junk getting in the action. Only two passed, the Sig P320 and the Smith M&P. Lessons learned if you want to skip the video were that external hammers appear to be an extra point of failure, as they take on water and freeze, the 1911 sliding SA trigger gets fucked, and Glock’s trigger safety has a little too much shit in the mechanism that picks up water and freezes up. The hinged trigger safety of the M&P appeared nearly optimal to survive the freeze test and break any ice that formed, whereas the ice took out so many other classics from Glock, to HK’s USP, to the Beretta 92, to the 1911. The other successful entry which passed, the SIG p320 has had persistent rumors that it not only goes bang frozen, but can go bang all by itself in a holster, and that has never been resolved one way or another IMO, so I have viewed it slightly askance. Which leaves only the Smith as the clear favorite of this test. As luck would have it just this morning Buds sent out an email ad for a regular Smith M&P 2.0 compact on sale for $359.95 cash/check with free shipping. Buds even has the upgraded version which comes cut for an optic and with suppressor sights for about $400, and usually you can do even better than Buds on Gun Broker with a little patience. Of course you will have a local FFL transfer fee, and tax, so plan accordingly. But it looked a good deal to me given the exact same Smith 11683 is $520 over at Palmetto, and there is a Supreme Court case coming down which should give everyone full carry, at which point there may be a rush, and handgun stocks may get a little sparse. And one final word if you consider this deal. This is a good deal for a good gun. But if you have specific tastes, or some knowledge of firearms and want to upgrade, but are not familiar with Smith and Wesson, know these guns have a lot of options, and there are a lot of good deals out there. Stop by Smith’s website, and see exactly what you might want, caliber, bbl length, thumb safety or no, optics-ready or no, and so on, and check gunbroker.com to see if you can get a similarly good deal on exactly what you want now, before the rush is on after the SC decision.

Second exclusive trailer released for “2000 Mules” showing how the 2020 election was rigged and stolen.

A Bladen County man who was the key player in a North Carolina absentee-ballot fraud case that led to a new congressional election, has died, his family announced. Supposedly he had been diagnosed with Lung Cancer according to one source.

Subpoenas formally issued for evidence in Georgia ballot trafficking case. They demanded election integrity group True the Vote turn over identities of ballot harvesters, a John Doe whistleblower, and other evidence concerning an alleged ballot trafficking operation in the 2020 election.

New Durham filing – He has hundreds of e-mails between Fusion GPS and reporters. These include efforts to frame Sergei Millian and Carter Page. And no lawyers are copied in on the emails, so none of it is privileged.

Some of the emails are reporters saying to Fusion they checked out stories and they were bullshit, but they ran the stories anyway, meaning now Durham could begin targeting the media.

Special counsel John Durham will not be allowed to present “extensive evidence” of the inaccuracy of the Trump-Russia collusion claims in his case against Michael Sussmann — unless the Democratic cybersecurity lawyer argues their accuracy first.

Ex-National Intelligence Director predicts more indictments in Durham probe“I’m just saying this was a very coordinated effort,” said John Ratcliffe.

The World Health Organization is going to try and seize US sovereignty by giving itself massive powers over nations in the event of a pandemic, and it will do it by amending a treaty we are already a part of, so we will not need 2/3rds of the Senate to approve it.

The family of a New Hampshire couple who died of multiple gunshot wounds after they went for a walk described them as caring and supportive of one another. Couple went out for a walk from their apartment, and were hit with multiple gunshots. From the article, lots of glowie indicators from his work to him marrying a foreign national: “WMUR-TV reported a family statement said Stephen Reid served four years in the Peace Corps in West Africa right after college: “He met his future wife and soulmate Wendy, who was from West Africa, while she was studying in Washington D.C. on an athletic scholarship. They bonded over their mutual love of adventure and fitness… Steve’s thirty-plus year career as an international development specialist in service to the world’s most vulnerable through USAID humanitarian projects could not have been made possible without the love, care and support of Wendy, who also helped recently-resettled refugees acclimate and thrive in the United States,” the statement said.” You would think Cabal’s ground intel operation in the US would all be Jason Bourne-tier, or at least trained enough to dive into a physical conflict and give it a go, but oddly enough, this is what they all look like, and though they have some guys who look tough, that seems unrelated to being a domestic spy. The vast majority strike me like Epstein – when their number is up, they would just put their head down in defeat and go gentle into that good night.

FBI tells treasure hunters suing them over $500 million in gold treasure they say the FBI disappeared overnight, that they only have 4 of the 17 videos the court has ordered them to produce. It is a bit like being allowed to acquire half a billion dollars yourself. They can’t have any rando acquire that power in this environment, because if they decide to use it to expose things, that could fuck up a lot. You have to be under control. In this case, I would assume those FBI who were assigned to this were assigned to it by the command because they were Cabal, and clearly Cabal just giving the government half a billion dollars when they could just disappear it into their own vault using their own agents is ridiculous. And they were not about to let it get out of their control.

Twitter has been bought by Elon Musk.

Twitter’s source code is locked down to make it harder for employees to make unauthorized changes to the platform, Bloomberg reports.

Trump confirms he will nor return to Twitter, and will begin Truthing on Truth Social in seven days. Hopefully maximally irreverent and funny.

One of the commenters pointed out this video which is pretty harsh on Elon Musk, but which needs to be considered given just as Truth Social was set to take over all of social media, Elon has swooped in to “save us” by rebooting twitter so we will all go there. The truth is, I think if any of you stumbled on an emerald mine so lucrative your safe was always overflowing with emeralds, the machine would find out and move in to take it from you. Stick with Truth Social, and fuck Elon Musk and Twitter. If he changes things, great on him, but if he doesn’t stick with Trump.

Some think this may be the beginning of the global digital ID:

Bezos tries to accuse Elon of what he is guilty of:

Twitter staff are told in emergency meeting that their jobs are only safe for six months until Musk completes his $44bn takeover.

Tucker is reinstated on twitter, just in time to show us it is safe to go back.

Left-wing group demands Apple preemptively nuke Truth Social.

Google rolls out a feature that corrects your search with woke ‘inclusive’ language.

Over a million votes for Le Pen disappear on live tv. I am beginning to think they want us to know.

The video shows how the ballots for Marine Le Pen are already in specially sealed voting bags, which are already torn, which automatically recognizes them as unsuitable for counting.

Macron appears to have secured a double-digit victory over LePen, at a time when his approval rating is 36%.

French Presidential election poll: 85 per cent of Muslims voted to keep Macron in power. These people were brought into the country because they were assets of the conspiracy, and would do what they were told. We are facing a massive non-state private sector intelligence operation that is using all the tools of intelligence agencies like the CIA to take over our nations for the elites.

Biden says Macron didn’t take his election-night call, talked to staff instead. No idea what this means, or why Biden would even admit he was so humiliated publicly.

Sweden and Finland agree to both apply for NATO membership in May in defiance of Russian threats.

A BBC report on Azov which was aired before the narrative crafters decreed they were the good guys. Not surprising to see the similarities to Antifa and BLM:

Zelensky says he has no military ability to unblock Mariupol, where Azov is currently trapped by the Russians. Sounds kind of like he is a Jewish guy making excuses to the Nazis for why he can’t save them.

OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe) staff left their archives in Mariupol. All OSCE field reports from 2014 were discovered by Russia, documenting thousands of Ukrainian war crimes, which the OSCE had concealed in official mission reports in Ukraine.

Vox Day on the people of Ukraine not rising up against Russia. One of the things Cabal does is try to diminish nationalism. As a result, nationalists will view the established Cabal regime as an enemy, as the anti-nationalists are left in a position of apathy, viewing the competition as being between an anti-nationalist government they both loathe and support, and a foreign enemy which they would naturally ally with. It is also tough to tell what people there are seeing, as all our media are liars. It could very well be like here in the US, where we view the established Cabal regime as an unquestioned enemy, and have respect for Russia’s loyalty to their own and traditional values.

Biden approves $713 million more for weapons for Ukraine. None of which are being tracked in any way.

Dutch party Forum voor Democratie asked the question: “Zelensky has a huge fortune: according to various estimates, it is about 850 million. He received most of this fortune only after he became president. So where does this money come from?”

Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) claimed on Monday that it detained a group of “neo-Nazis” instructed by Kiev to kill popular Russian TV host and journalist Vladimir Solovyov.

In a rare convergence, America’s voters are not merely unhappy with their political leadership, but awash in fears about economic security, border security, international security and even physical security. All K-stimuli.

Federal judge temporarily blocks Biden administration from ending Title 42 Covid border restrictions for migrants.

The “Remain in Mexico” policy will be before the Supreme Court as it hears arguments in the Biden administration’s effort to end the Trump administration policy that turns away asylum-seekers at the border until their case can be heard.

Arizona Judge dismisses lawsuits aimed at disqualifying Reps. Gosar, and Biggs.

NY Times column frets conservative judges are using the pandemic’s end to ‘dismantle’ government’s ‘legal authority.’

May God bless Orrin Hatch.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a bill creating a new agency to target voter fraud that critics say is unnecessary and could be used for partisan gains.

Florida will have the best, most secure, voting in the entire world at this rate. That will be very useful in actually doing diagnostics on issues, turnout and such. The state will serve as a “control” on how most US voters actually vote.

Yes exactly. This is why I have been so impressed with the “voter fraud” movement. I am not saying there have ever been honest elections. But I am saying the Kulaks are demanding them right now. I honestly think there only needs to be one populous state with secure elections (prob only 85-90% secure) and the whole thing comes down just as you imply. It would be a control. It would provide a secure base from which the elected pols could tell the major parties to get f*cked. Imagine a GOP senator with Strom Thurmond levels of not giving a damn. Another benefit is the diversity of FLA. And as you point out, useful data regarding actual political preferences could be determined.

They knew about who trafficked, where, when and how. They either got tied up as a loose end because they knew too much, and Cabal won’t let it’s minions have too much knowledge/leverage/power, or they were getting ready to talk. Either way they are now very, very dead.

A third option also exists. They were “murdered” and now are fully cooperating, spilling the beans while in witness protection.

“Nation” and “Immigrants” are polar opposite terms. The word “nation’s” etymology is based in the latin “nasci” meaning birth. A nation is literally a homogenous group of people linked by common ancestry and blood.

A “nation” of immigrants is pure satanic inversion at the very base definitions of the words; you can’t share birth ancestry with foreign invaders.

That such a thing is even allowed to be considered means that all of the United States so-called constitutional lawyers are no such thing but merely hacks, worthless: in plain English, the constitution puts any treaty dead last in regards to the Constitution and the laws pursuant to it; this is the principle of seriality. Our so-called constitutional lawyers are one of two things: either they are dumber than the Founders by a considerable degree or they are despicably corrupt.

I’ve run across a few “constitutional lawyers” in my litigation career. They have all been the bottom of the IQ barrel when it comes to litigators. Remember that the Constitution itself will fit in a tiny breast pocket booklet, and the grand sum of case law would likely fit in a single large 3-ring binder. They pick ConLaw because it is easy and all that they can handle.

Trump exposed a great deal of corruption, and now anyone who is willing to see it can see it. Trump may have been a Mutual Assured Destruction operation by a cabal faction, but Trump also served a purpose for all the factions: they want us to see that we are helpless, and that they are in power.
They want us to see we’re helpless if we are, and _especially_ if we are not.

The role of the Fool is the un-invert the inversion that Cabal undertakes in regards to everything.
Similar to how Captain Jack Sparrow dealt with a certain inverted situation where order is upside down:
“This reminds me a scene from “Pirates of the Carribean: To the World’s End” where they try to figure a way to escape the underworld before sunset lest the get trapped forever (mind you they had to go into antarctica and then fall of a waterfall in order to find the otherworld, that is to go into the margins of the world and then lose all order by letting themselves into the watery chaos in order to enter death).
In this scene Jack Sparrow (the wise fool of the company) finds and tries to understand the phrases “sunrise sets” and “up is down” which are the key to get out. As he’s doing that he starts talking with his two little selves in an allmost delliriac situation (cause he’s crazy) and in his dellirium he understands that the world of the dead is upside down to the world of the living, which means that if they turn their ship upside down (upstraight relative to the world of the living) at the time of the sunset (when the sunset to the dead becomes the sunrise to the living, ie when the world gets inverted from turnaround to straight) they will get transported back to the world of the living through the sea (which represents both life and death, connecting the two worlds).
And how does he invert the ship? He starts acting foolishly by going up and down so that the others will think he is after something and by following him to see what is that he saw they will start rocking the ship and make it flip. Literally the fool turns the world from inverted back to normal by acting foolishly.”

Entirely normal and a correct ruling. He’s charged with lying about who he was working for. He’s entitled to limit the state to that, unless he brings it up, and then the door is wide open.
Honestly, I don’t know why he hasn’t plead guilty to this charge and either flip or try to argue that it was no big deal and get probation.

In a traditional software project, individual programmers can only make commits through a supervisor after a code review. The code base is always “locked down” through some sort of version control and checkout system.

Though with modern “move fast and break things” programming ideologies, who knows how Twitter does it. Twitter’s code itself can’t be very complicated; it’s less functional than an old DOS-based modem BBS.

On the other hand, the support infrastructure of servers and routers and their setups is probably two orders of magnitude more complex, and absolutely critical for keeping the service up.

Had a sig 220 i bought over twenty years ago that looked very well made
but it was a pos. occasionally the slide would lock in battery position and get stuck so bad i could not rack it back and had to tap it on the wood floor to get it unstuck. never happened while shooting but i still got rid of it Never considered another Sig even after all this time. Had a Glock jam almost consistently…when i was goofing off holding it “gangsta style” (horizontal). the brass would fall right back in the slide or else just didn’t eject properly. I often wonder how much more successful many pettty criminals would be if they used a belt to hold up their pants. It’s one of the many things my mind has never accepted could really hapen without some super intelligent entity with it’s tendrils in humanity that delights in violence, suffering and well…just laughing at human stupidity.
How do you convince millions of youth to go around with thier pants hanging down like they are mental patients or just shit themselves?! And it’s supposed to be from jail and signaling other prisoners you are available for gay sex??
But “wearing” your pants that way makes you look tough? Pretty sure it’s epic level trolling by the lizard men or whatever. Also guys, don’t let your weapon get wet and then freeze. Wear a belt. Godspeed.

Off topic: AC, have you considered creating an index page?

One of my biggest grievances with blogs is the lack of an archive index (I have this issue with Vox’s, Krausers, and other gold mines). When I get hooked on a blog I like to browse through the thoughts of great minds discovering new topics, and looking for answers as questions arise. I also like reviewing the ideas and referencing them on the fly for my own sake and in discussions with others. I can’t be the only one.

It would be a useful tool for individual’s developments and the information war (and me).

Same issue here as I mentioned it to you before. This is what a good index page looks like:
https://www.rooshv.com/archives
or this to a lesser degree
https://peakwatch.typepad.com/decline_of_the_empire/archives.html

It has all blog posts linked on a single page, ordered by date or topic.
Not only it is very accessible to browse and discover articles, it makes it very easy to scrape with common programs like IDA (Internet Download Accelerator). That page made it possible for me to download a local backup of Roosh’s entire blog, <700 pdfs under 1Gb, for my own use and safekeeping. The benefits of user generated backups are self evident, especially for a body of work of your nature.

Works like yours are too important to have SPOF vulnerabilities. They have to be antifragile.
I also believe it is possible to request Internet Archive do a crawl of your website and generate a backup on their domain (that is then available for download) but when I looked into it I couldn’t figure it out, maybe you or someone else will.

Something like the example below or here.
> What is it you would need an index to do that would make it more efficient than say, a search results page?
Scope – An index would allow for the entire scope of the blog to be easily viewed. At a glance a reader could spot the topics that might pique their interest. They may never encounter them otherwise, unless by happenstance when digging around in the archives.
Referencing – Sometimes I can’t locate or remember the title of a post and I have to search the site for random phrases that are burned into my memory. Sometimes I succeed, other times I give up.
Picking Up Where You Left Off – An index would create a ready made adhoc browsing tool for readers. You could say, “bookmark” but people jump on to have a read while they’re waiting for the bus and start clicking around. An index would be an easy way for readers to pick up where they left off.
The haphazard nature of browsing without an index is like going into a cave without a map. You might remember your way around over time but it’s clumsy and annoying. The index would be like the map.
I’m not sure of the tech side and if it’s worth the bother, or if this is something other readers would value enough. It would be a useful tool so worth throwing the idea there, though only a mere suggestion

I really can’t say. I don’t have a website to try them and I’m only an amateur at coding but #1, 2 and 3 each seem okay in their own right. #4 looks like a search engine plugin and not an index page.
My impression based only from the screenshots and description, #1 looks like the least candidate because it is multi-site and therefore unnecessarily complex. Low rating sample.
#2 looks pretty solid and has high rating but the best way to order your index is chronologically not alphabetically, and if it won’t let you do that then it’s no good
By elimination #3 may be the easy choice. By the looks of it the free version should allow you to imitate Roosh’s index.

I can see people using the archive widget to keep track of what pages they have browsed as long as they let their browser keep track of their browsing history. For example, say someone wants to start from November 2017. He can go there and keep loading “Older posts” until the entire month is in one page. Then read from bottom up. All they have to do to keep track of their place would be to check the color of the “Continue reading” link. Repeat for December 2017 and so on.

What type of index are you looking for? It would be helpful if you could give AC real examples of how you browse websites with the types of indexes you’re looking for. In other words, what you practically mean by “browse through the thoughts of great minds discovering new topics”, ” looking for answers as questions arise”, and “reviewing the ideas and referencing them on the fly for my own sake and in discussions with others”? To be frank, these are not actionable suggestions in the least.

AC’s News Briefs structure is functionally quite self-evident in nature and he is kind enough to provide search functionality that includes the comment section. He also provides an “archive index” via dropdown menu organized by month and year. But my point here is that his News Briefs and comment moderation obviously both take tons of work, which you are asking AC to add to. I’m positive our open-minded and gracious host fully appreciates feedback, but as you are a regular here, more specificity might be warranted.

Hey I was just as surprised as Mike when the M&P2.0 fired without a hiccup. I expected all of them to fail, especially the exposed hammer guns.

-the 1911/2011 has three points of failure with this test 1)exposed hammer allowing the water direct access to the firing pin, 2)the grip safety which will not let the trigger travel rearwards if frozen solid, 3) the sliding trigger which has just enough clearance for water to seep in and freeze solid. Never stood a chance. You will still be seeing at least one on BOOTSTRAPPY WORKSHOP, because me luvs ’em.

-the safety dingus on the Glock trigger froze. Fun fact, Glock safety dingus operates basically the same way as the 1911 grip safety, just uses a different surface to press against. So with no way to pivot it, the trigger couldn’t be pulled back.

-the exposed hammer CZSP01 almost recovered. Not bad.

-yes I was chuckling about the M&P, because of the striker fired plastic pistol, it’s the one that I’ve always gravitated towards, and why I carry a SHIELD 9mm. I’m probably gonna get an AR put together specifically for the shop to go along with it. Need a bcg and the tax stamp to form-1 a can, though. Then we can machine one using MK2. Fun for the whole family.

/also, you’re welcome for the distraction, AC 🙂

I think everyone is putting way too much stock in this “test”. GT put the wet guns in a cooler of dry ice!
In what scenario will you be outside, wet, in -109 degree weather?
Uhh, NEVER!
In the video GT says this test is ridiculous.

Best advice for purchasing a handgun, go to a range that has rentals.
Try everything you are remotely interested in.
Then make your decision.
You’ll save a bunch of money in the long run.

The exposed hammer design is a known failure point regardless of the pistol in question and there is no getting around it. You either decide to chance it or not. I’m in the “chance it” column simply because militaries around the world used exposed hammer sidearms for all of the 20th century and a few are STILL using them. Australia is just now getting around to replacing the Hi-Power and last I checked they were still in the early selection process. If this were a truly serious problem, we would know.

I say that as someone that has gone through great pains to remove failure points in an AR15 that are not at all common failure points, but it made me feel better.

Firearms instructors in the US are 95%+ using striker fired plastic pistols as their daily carry guns. Glock is at something like 60%, M&P at ~35%, and the rest are things like the CZ-P10 series or other lesser known pistols. Almost no 1911/2011’s of any type. Everybody uses 9mm. SOME used to use .40S&W, but those days are basically over. .45ACP is for throwbacks and boomers. Thumb safeties are universally denounced as WRONG and will get you killed no matter what, even though they apparently won’t when they are on a rifle becoming just something to train for and that makes sense because reasons.

Glock and M&P are basically the choice between the Toyota Camry and the Honda Accord. Are they really a different car? It does boil down to personal preference. If you like Glock, you aren’t wrong. They’ve got a great record.

Example, I HATE the Glock grip angle, which is why I’ve always gravitated towards the M&P and that’s it. Frame mounted thumb safety like a 1911? American made? Just bonuses, what was really important to me was the grip angle and the M&P basically mimics the 1911 in how it points. That’s what I wanted and that’s what they provided while Glock was completely indifferent to my segment of the market. Okay, S&W gets my cash.

“Lowell keeps posting these damn Garand Thumb videos when I don’t have enough time for what is already in front of me. But the latest was a freeze test of common handguns, where he soaked them all and then let them freeze in the extreme cold, and went to see if they would go bang when he flipped the safety off and pulled the trigger. It might be a good test of resistance of dirt and junk getting in the action.
Too be honest, its extreme test of an firearm. What important for anyone is understanding the multiple points of failure of their pistols. The more exposed and moving parts, the more likely that the ice will form and prevent shooting of the pistol. It be good exercise to modifying your pistol to prevent failures in less than ideal situations.

>Some think this may be the beginning of the global digital ID

For anyone who still cheers at Elon buying Twitter, here’s a bunch of his Tweets to put into perspective the side he’s on
comment image

There is no secret that Musk is controlled opposition, it was always in the open. He has always told you to your face that he follows the elite transhumanist agenda. But people crave elite heroes so bad they will engage in selective perception and willingly self-deceive.

I see on Gab and YouTube so many good and intelligent guys on our side fall for the Elon Musk deception and it’s poignant. He is just another ((Ben Shapiro)) and Jordan Peterson. A loser propped up by the system as token controlled opposition and the fact is so easy to see when you look at him objectively.

When you see Elon pair up and have a baby (that they give a glyph name) with a demonic mesmer like Grimes, the healthy and sane human reaction would be to retch, because they are degenerates (names are symbols–what psychology calls themselves Grimes?). You should listen to your disgust reaction because it is trying to tell you something. Search any picture of Grimes or watch this

Christian doctrine states that we live in a fallen world that is ruled by evil–where the Prince of darkness has free reign. Satan offered the world to Jesus Christ in exchange for His soul but He refused. You are not meant to save the World but rather, it is a gauntlet for your soul. You have temptation, deception, coercion, all manner of evils competing and scheming for your adulteration–trying to turn you away from God and His word. Those that walk the narrow path, that stay true to their faith and make it through, will inherit the Father’s Kingdom in the afterlife.

Whether you believe in God or not this is a powerful mindset to adopt because it contains a small but healthy dose of cynicism. Think about it from a game theoretic perspective. If we all operated on the principle that no matter what we do the world is evil and against us, and therefore we should focus increasing our own virtue, to point to salvation those who would listen but not waste energy beyond that compromising with evil, not only would we not defer agency to charlatans, we would not let ourselves morale-raped by them either and we would not suffer the consequences thereof. Through our individual but collective behavior pattern we would create antifragile networks of resistance to evil that would push back the tide of decay. With little opportunity for subversion, evil would have to resort to brute force to oppose us. Think Waco.

Almost wish I didn’t see that! Yuk! Pretty conclusive evidence that the Musk/Twitter takeover is just a distraction effort against truth social. He clearly comes from a satanic family and didn’t get where he is today by accident.

That’s a great post. I’ve always thought deep planning and strategy was a sucker’s play for those very reasons. And yeah, “HE is like a refiner’s fire”.

I still like Musk though for some reason. Not going to lie. Might be how viscerally i see libs in real life recoil from him. They just are instinctively fearful and distrusting of him. And he builds things (not always successfully) which is a big sign for me.

Stop being so desperately thirsty for someone to agree with you. Everything he builds is aimed at making your life worse (electric computer cars the government can turn off at a whim, brain chips, fake space rockets to take attention off of fake NASA, etc.), and him le epic own-saucing the libs Mc Epic Style is kayfabe specifically to build undeserved trust in your mind.

Look with your eyes at the evil in the post above and disavow your undeserved allegiance.

The role of the Gospel is to bring salvation to souls. To baptize them through the Holy Spirit through the sacrament of baptism and prayer to receive the gift and hence to be “born again”.
Taking away Satan’s subjects and make them Christ’s subject. Following God’s will.
And thereby expanding the Kingdom. Each little person that ends up doing God’s Will ends up making Satan’s task of damning everyone more and more harder.

The Gospel: Salvation of the spirit is a free gift given by the grace of God–through Jesus Christ who walked the narrow path, died, and rose again for our sins–which requires recognizing our sinful nature and believing in Christ’s redemptive work for us. In the Christian metaphysic, this leads to being “born again”, in which (among other things) we are given a new spirit and a new heart.

Christ came to save and He will come again to judge. I agree that we’re not meant to save the world, but the world isn’t a gauntlet to us, it’s our enemy against us living our prime directive. We’re to point to the Gospel and to call people out of the world through supernatural Agape. Fortifying ones soul structure (one’s heart, mind, and will) against the evils of the world is indeed essential to our Agape mission. But this fortification (called “sanctification” involving renewing the mind through Scripture, putting on the armor of God, and wielding the sword of the Word) is not necessarily an end in and of itself, but is what equips us to fulfill our Agape mission.

I also agree that it’s supremely advantageous for us to assume that the world is evil. Christ himself in John 17 expressly prays not for the world, but only for those who are in Him (vs.9-10). And I completely agree on us “create antifragile networks of resistance to evil that would push back the tide of decay”. Very well said.
