Didactic Mind, Ep 114: ”And Forgive Us Our Debts”

The Didactic Mind podcast is finally BACK with a new episode! This one is all about the importance of debt forgiveness, from both a moral and economic perspective, as it is a necessary (but not sufficient) condition for ensuring investment in genuinely productive sectors of the national economy. I go over a number of topics here today, starting with Scripture, going through fake economic statistics and the work of heretic economists like Dr. Fadi Lama and Dr. Michael Hudson and some of the Austrian economists. I then discuss how debt is crushing youngsters in the FUSA, with similar effects felt in many Western nations. And I talk about how social engineering experiments in Russia's Far East offer solutions to some of the most pressing demographic problems we see today.
This is one of those podcasts that weaves together lots of different ideas into something that is (hopefully) a cohesive whole, and I would be intrigued to get the audience's thoughts, so be sure to like, comment, share, and subscribe.

Didactic Mind, Ep 113: Weapons of Maths Destruction

This one originated from a question sent to me by LRFotS MK, who is also a Telegram channel subscriber, about a program done on The Duran with Alex from Reporterfy. The program in question was a most excellent Q&A session between the THREE Alexes - they are multiplying like rabbits, I swear - about the coming financial apocalypse. The third Alex raised a lot of excellent points - indeed, I agree with basically everything he said - but he skimmed over quite a lot of details, and obfuscated others.
So, MK reached out to me to ask for my own point of view and explanations as to the financial chicanery going on right now. I give it my best shot here, in which I apply my own expertise and experience in derivatives pricing, economics, financial services, energy, risk management, and other fields, and I welcome follow-up questions from this episode.

Domain Query: Wife-Hunting Post-Plandemic

Here we are, back with another Domain Query episode. This one is perhaps the most complex and demanding topic ever, because it touches on so many different things. As with the previous episode, this comes via a query from LRFotS Randale6, who asked - well, ranted, really - about a whole bunch of different things:
Breaking with my established pattern of geopolitical queries I present something that may be haunting the majority of the readership.
 
Wife hunting post-plandemic. 
 
Simply put many of us Western escapees understand two things. First we must get out of the West and never return, secondly we must find wives abroad (western women at this point can only be made serviceable by slavery, and I mean this literally).
 
The plandemic has complicated this matter enormously thanks to genocide in a syringe. South-East Asia for example may be completely wrecked if the jab numbers concerning it are accurate. Given that this was the number 1 place for westerners wife hunting safaris this means two things, either we have to abandon the region entirely or we have to have someway of reliably separating the wheat from the chaff. 
 
I have no clue about how to do the latter efficiently (and reliably, as the truth comes to light women will start lying...as usual). As for the second the problem is the same with a twist, how do we accurately sort through the noise of the statistics?
 
All I can reliably make out from the mainstream headlines is the following. Eastern Europe (we will include Russia in this grouping) and Africa in general seem to be the least vaxxed populations worldwide. Meanwhile the west (outside of the USA, the benefits of a third of our population being conspiracy theorists) is fucked, the middle east proper (excluding North Africa) is very middle of the road as a whole, South America is aping North America to it's detriment, and Central Asia is also middle of the road.
 
All of this is further muddled by two things, questionable statistics from questionable sources (let us hope that they are deliberately cherry picking their data to inflate things), and the (not)vaccines administered. 
 
If I were a betting man I would wager that the Chinese and Russian vaccines are less harmful than their western equivalents. This is admittedly a low bar to beat, the aforementioned countries besting it simply by not being a bunch of depopulationists dredged from the asshole of Satan. 
 
This leaves us in one final pickle, the matter of the (new) hunting grounds. Eastern Europe while not new to us Americans isn't a good choice from what I've seen here in America. This is admittedly based on a sample size of one but it wasn't good, the woman is literally named Natasha (I forget if she is Russian or Ukrainian) and upon receiving her green card promptly divorced her rube and proceeded to shack up with a 20 year old arab boytoy. 
 
The next (most)viable area would be the caucuses countries of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia. This region is so remote and so obscure that it's hard to gauge it, all I can surmise is that these countries are a better choice then the others I will list here.
 
Central Asia suffers from the same problem as the caucuses, there just isn't enough expat experience of the region online to make anything remotely resembling an assessment of the landscape.
 
Next up is...the middle east. Needless to say I do not fancy this option one bit given my secular(ish) instincts (at this point I ain't sure about the existence of god(s), the existence of devils and demons on the other hand...I can believe that). For someone religious this could prove to be a more profitable expedition, let's not pretend that Arab Christians (particularly the Palestinian and Egyptian varieties) like living under the Jewish and Muslim boot, respectively.    
 
Finally we arrive at Africa, for the record I will note the following. I will only consider North Africa here, having seen the barbarism and evil that is inherent to negro race here in North America I will never stain my bloodline with their filth. With that out of the way onto the question of North Africa.
 
North Africa strikes me as being a less extreme version of the middle-east, this trend truly picking up steam anywhere west of Libya (may the entire Clinton family burn in hell). Beyond this general trend of lessening craziness the farther from Mecca you go I don't have much more to say concerning the region (the information problems I mentioned concerning Central Asia seem to apply to this region as well). 
 
I know this one is going to be a bitch didact, this is probably the hardest domain query I have ever asked of you. I simply do not have both the first hand experience and the mathematical background to sort out the true from the false (beyond assuming that the mainstream statistics have been fudged) with regards to this problem.
Well, to be honest, I'm not even sure exactly where to start with this one, but I gave it the old college try, as it were, and here is the result. My basic answer to these questions is: you are not alone. There are more of us purebloods than most people realise, and it is only by striking out and taking risks to find them, that one will realise we are rapidly becoming the MAJORITY in the West, not the minority.

Domain Query: Unleashed in the East

Hail, brothers! The Domain Query series is finally back, with an all-new episode, thanks to LRFotS Randale6, who wrote in with a long two-part question. The questions relate to my recent trip to Russia, and everything that I have seen and learned before and since. Here is what he asked - edited somewhat, due to my Grammar Nazi tendencies:
The first question is pertinent to your recent vacation to Russia, have the Russians finally accepted and (we can hope) embraced the reality that they are Russian, not European, and not Asian? I do not mean this in the cruel sense of deriding the Russians as a barbaric race, rather I think of them as being the far eastern analogue to Texas...just bigger, colder, and to be blunt possessed of questionable cuisine (all hail the two truly homegrown American cuisines, Cajun and Tex-Mex).
Over here in the USA Texas has never been ashamed of being Texas, it readily accepts the fact that it is its own little (alright, big) reality that doesn't quite play by the rules as the American South, Southwest, and Appalachia know them. But Russian history doesn't play out that way, it's never a good sign when your nobility can speak better French than Russian...and you keep doing it despite the frogs shitting on you whenever they see you (ditto for the rest of western Europe with regards to Russia).
The second question relates to China. Simply put the Chinese have done something that they have never done since before the birth of Christ, that something being the alteration of their government. From the time of the first Emperor to the nomadic conquerors from over the wall the Chinese governmental model has stood firm, the only changes to it essentially being window dressing.
Those days are now gone, in the place of the old dynasties stands the CCP (which should be renamed the Fascist Chinese Party if we are honest). The CCP has a problem, a threat that it cannot answer like the old dynasties did. That thorn in their side being the question of legitimacy.
In the two millennia of dynastic rule all an Emperor had to do to remain legitimate was to keep China prosperous and stable. So long as he could do this the Emperor was legitimate, regardless of whatever bullshit his predecessors had cooked up.
However, the CCP cannot partake of this Mandate of Heaven like the dynasties did. The CCP is built around ideology, not an Emperor. Just because Deng took over from Mao does not mean the former can abjure the latter as having lost the mandate of heaven, the ideological tenets of the CCP being an absolute commandments that cannot be challenged (formally) lest the foundations of the entire party crumble. 
Simply put the CCP cannot come to terms with the fact that are no longer Communist, they are Fascists, hence such euphemisms as "Communism with Chinese Characteristics". What this does is force the party to live in a state of cognitive (and political) dissonance, a damaging state for both the individual and the party itself.
With that in mind do you think that the CCP can overcome this internal contradiction?
I answer these questions at length in the podcast. Basically, the answer to the first question is: YES, the Russians have rediscovered their ancient love of their own people, and their own deeply ingrained sense of national pride.
The answer to the second is more complex, and there are a few misconceptions about the CPC that I need to clear up first. Essentially, the CPC faces a number of serious problems in China, and is working to address them by way of your typical engineering mindset - build, baby, build! This is not necessarily a sensible solution, because the problems confronting the CPC are quite severe structural ones, which they have failed to address for many years. But they are nowhere near as severe as what faces the West, and I believe the CPC enjoys far greater popular support than most Western commentators realise.

Didactic Mind, Ep 112: The Itchy Red Blanket

This episode of Didactic Mind is all about the misguided and very foolish return of Stalinism as an in-vogue political and social philosophy. This all came about because of the recent appearance by one Jackson Hinkle on Piers Morgan's show (Lord, have mercy, because that guy, right there, deserves a proper slapping), in which Jackson did utterly humiliate both Piers and his guest, Konstantin Kisin. But then, Jackson stated openly that he is a Stalinist, and believes in returning to Stalinist policies. This got me rather annoyed, because this is a trend I am seeing a lot of late on the channels I watch.
Therefore, in this episode, I explain why Stalinism is such a terrible idea, and where it actually led over time - to starvation, backwardness, and eventual economic collapse. Stalin's economic model is not one for the rest of us to follow - it leads to very, very bad places, and its actual record in action is truly terrible. Just because neoliberal policies are failing completely, that does not mean we should trade in one set of huge failures for another.

Didactic Mind, Ep 111: Slamming the Wall

The Didactic Mind podcast is FINALLY back, after many months off due to... well, laziness, really. This episode is all about geopolitics, and discusses the extreme and fatal errors of judgement made by the GloboHomoPaedoPharisatanist elites that have led the West from disaster to catastrophe. They fundamentally miscalculated about the nature of the enemy they sought to make out of Russia, and they also completely misunderstood themselves. The result is what we see today - a broken, beaten West that nonetheless refuses to give up on its idiotic quest to defeat an industrial and energy superpower.
The Banderastan War is but the latest manifestation of this incompetence and reckless stupidity - and it will only end once the West itself shatters, which may be sooner than any of us would like to admit.

Domain Query: Uncanny Valley

The Domain Query series is finally back, with a new instalment, thanks to LRFotS Randale6. He had an unusual and rather interesting question for me, related to gaming, which I answered at some length here. The question goes as follows:
Departing from our usual fare I have one question: have we reached "good enough graphics" for gaming? What I mean by this question is have we reached the point in gaming where making your game the most graphically advanced (and ram chugging) wunderwaffen is even necessary to attract gamers?
For what I would consider the "base" where I started to see this occur in my mind I am bringing up a mass effect 3 (2012 release date) gameplay video. I never played any halo games but from research halo 4 was release in the same year as mass effect 3, so it should make a good comparison to mass effect 3 (I don't believe you have played any mass effect games from what I can recollect).
Here is the gameplay video our boy mentioned.
It is a rather good question. In my personal view, graphics have plateaued - they haven't peaked yet, but they aren't really improving at the speed and levels that would tempt people to buy those games en masse. I think gaming will move back toward the things that make people actually fork out cash, by going back to the basics, because the obsession with having the most whiz-bang wowser graphics has resulted in serious deterioration of core gameplay mechanics, story, and character.
Of course, my views on gaming are positively archaic by modern standards, so I invite anyone who thinks differently, to comment below. Have at it, lads.

Domain Query: Ask Didact Anything Day #2

Gentlemen! We just concluded another round of Ask Didact Anything Day on my Telegram channel, which is your chance as a member of the community (such as it is) to ask questions to yer very 'eavy, very 'umble Warrior-Servant. We got a really good battery of questions in for today's podcast, and I was very pleased to take some time to answer them all:
Dan: Which European country is in the worst shape socially and economically? And which would you expect to see collapse first?
SupremeCannon: Progozhin said there were other PMC's operating alongside Wagner. (Gazprom has a PMC?! Shoigu has a PMC?!) Is Russia really that freewheeling, militarily speaking?
WB: Can I borrow a dollar?
AK: When people are willingly rushing towards their demise and moral decay is this a sign of the coming dark ages? To clarify further: I understand that we had difficult times in the past because people were misinformed, but is this the time that St. Anthony prophesized? The masses are not just misinformed. They truly convinced themselves that modern lunatic and satanic rules/practices coming from the elites, are good for them.
GW: Is the current round of US bank failures the beginning of the end of the US financial system, or will they be able to kick the can down the road a few more years?
Randale6: As I have been browsing the various forums available for international teachers I have noticed that certain countries and areas as being deemed "hardship" locations. Said locales are easier to get jobs at as they get less applicants and thus have to be a bit more open-minded.  One of the areas mentioned is Central Asia (e.g Mongolia and all the stans) and I personally feel drawn to the old silk road. Do you have any experience of the Central Asian locales at all?
Dan: I see the Kombat Kats as well as plenty of dogs in your posts. Are you a cat or dog person and why?
I have to confess that I missed out on one question - which was kind of stupid, because it was literally the first one in the list, and somehow I managed to skip over it entirely. I will address that one specifically in a voice message on my Telegram channel. Here's the question:
MK: Are there good Russian history media in English or do I have to get off my lazy butt and actually learn Russian?
Sorry, bro - will get back to you about this.
For everyone else - here is the podcast.

You need to do the same – this is no longer optional, because if you don’t, the gatekeepers WILL come for your head.
If you don’t know where to start, then I’ve got you covered right here with this post. Here are the specific steps that you can take:
Make sure that your web traffic is safe and protected from prying eyes using a VPN – click here to get a massive 80% OFF on a 24-month subscription with Surfshark;
Be sure also to check out Incogni, the new data and privacy management tool offered by Surfshark, which simply works behind the scenes to ensure that no malign actors can take advantage of your data ever again;
Another solid VPN option for you is Atlas VPN, brought to you by the same company that creates NordVPN;
The best SSD drive that you can get right now, with blazing fast speeds and near-native storage capabilities, is probably the SanDisk Extreme 1TB Portable SSD with NVMe technology – I bought this myself to keep a moving backup of all of my files, it’s the size of a credit card, and it’s absolutely superb;

Didactic Mind, Ep 110: Gods and Daemons

Hail brothers and sisters - CHRIST IS RISEN! On this very special Easter Sunday podcast, I discuss the nether realm by weaving together the views of various Catholic exorcists (for whom I have tremendous respect), the late, great, and sorely missed Dr. Michael Heiser's work, and the elements of Scripture which pertain directly to the realities of that realm. I discuss how daemons are increasingly telling exorcists that they feel their time is coming, that something very BIG is on the way, and I talk about how God permits and uses their activities to help us purify ourselves, turn away from sin, and glorify Him through our own sanctification. I talk about the ways in which the worst excesses of Western civilisation are really a form of daemon-worship, and how the gods of many cultures are in fact daemonic entities in disguise. Finally, I talk about how the Resurrection is our ultimate bulwark against evil, for it fulfils God's promise to us and redeems us through the sacred blood of Christ our Lord.
There is a LOT packed into this episode, and you might have some questions coming off it, so be sure to reach out via the comments or direct emails if you wish - I might do a follow-up if there is sufficient demand.

Didactic Mind, Ep 109: Multipolar Mapping

The main Didactic Mind podcast is now back - two episodes in two weeks, which is something to celebrate, given how infrequent the podcasts have been of late. (Yes, I know - my fault entirely, mea culpa, etc. etc.) This week's episode is all about the unfolding multipolar world. I talk about some key economic indicators and what they mean for the Western economies. I discuss how American policies have forced countries around the world to de-dollarise - but, as I point out, this does NOT mean the USD will eventually be replaced outright by the RMB, simply because the Chinese yuan does not have enough "float" to do so, and because the Chinese have no desire whatsoever to be the world's reserve trading platform.
I go on to draw parallels between what we have seen in the past, with the collapse of empires, specifically the (western) Roman empire, and the current very obvious decline of the American empire. Then, I move on to point out what the world will look like, as a multipolar one based on regional trading blocs that work with each other, rather than constantly fighting wars against each other, instigated by the American Deep State. The podcast finishes with a reference to the Watchers and the spiritual war in which we find ourselves, with more to come in next week's Easter Sunday podcast.
