The Iran War is the greatest political blunder in the last two decades at least. A catastrophically stupid decision. An unforgivable betrayal of America First principles.

🚨 NEW: Kaylub Giamanco, the HERO father who TOOK OUT the Bend, Oregon elementary school shooter last week, tells the story for the first time
"I started hearing children PLEADING for their lives. And then I started hearing gunfire and I just started army crawling faster and faster. And I told myself, this is probably the last thing that I'm ever going to do."
"I have to go in. People are going to die."
"I crawled through the bottom window that was shot out and continued onto the rug inside where there's a little breezeway with stairs."
"And then the special needs classroom was to my left. At that point, I was on the ground on my hands and knees. I re-racked my weapon to make sure that a live round came so that I knew that I was ready to go."
"And then I peeked through the window. And at this point I found my opportunity. And I'd seen a teacher on the left struggling with the gunman on the right with the rifle."
"And I knew that they were on both sides of me, and I knew that he did not know that I was there. And so at that point I swung the door out and open and I stepped in and I fired."
This man deserves the Presidential Medal of FREEDOM! 🇺🇸

Why France? zerohedge.com/geopolitical/w…

If you're watching France and Italy burn themselves down and your first instinct is to mock them, it's a mistake. The better lesson is to recognize what a loss this is and to realize we're but a few steps behind them into total destruction.
It's not a spectacle it's a warning.

Boomers just got a 3.6% inflation adjusted raise in social security benefits
Meanwhile everyone else just had the 6th straight month of negative real earnings
Despite this all you will hear about is how tough 'fixed income' is for boomers while we're literally getting poorer

I made an unsettling discovery in my undergraduate class on financial planning last week. While explaining mortgages, I asked my 38 students this question: if you buy a $400,000 house and pay 20% in cash towards the purchase, what will be the amount that you finance?
Not a single student could tell me the answer. Despite the fact that they are all juniors and seniors majoring in business.
I added more questions: what is 30 percent of 80? 60 percent of 90? They didn’t know. The closest they got was when one student said, in response to my query of “40% of 70”, that “I know it’s 4 times 7 but I don’t remember what that is.” Another student helpfully added, “28.”
They explained to me why they couldn’t answer these math questions: they were never taught multiplication tables, percentages or fractions during their K-12 schooling. Instead, they were taught how to use a calculator. Without one, they are not able to do basic arithmetic.
I later asked the dean about this, and he lamented that this isn’t a thing just for our university’s students; it’s a thing for their entire generation, nationwide.
When I was in K-12, the fierce debate among parents and educators was whether to allow calculators in class. The calculators won.
Today, the debate is about AI. And like before, the tech will win. But will that truly be a victory?

I remember my mom (a boomer) telling me that her generation had been sold a bill of goods by the previous generation.
They were told that free love was good, having more than two kids (or any at all) was bad, to live for themselves and their own pleasure. Divorce became a standard, if marriage even happened.
As a result, my generation became latch key kids of single mothers or step parents. Cereal for breakfast, walk to school, key under the welcome mat.
This is where the divide comes. No familial relationships were built. The boomers (as a whole, tho there are many who are different) still have the selfish, hedonistic mindset they were sold. They literally can’t see any other way.
These same boomers began calling out millennials around fifteen years ago on Facebook. I watched it. What’s wild is that started during an economic downturn. We were just coming out of a housing crisis and millennials were just getting out of college.
I’ve watched this only from the sidelines. My parents did a great job of keeping us out of that latch key circus. I married a Gen X guy and we bought a house before the housing crisis and rode it out safely.
But I see what’s going on as almost an outsider. Boomers attacked millennials as lazy when the economy was down. Millennials have since figured out what happened and are, fairly, calling them out.
What’s wild is that boomers still want millennials to pay into their SSI when it’s been said for DECADES that it wouldn’t last. They literally should’ve stopped voting for commies. I’m not even considering that I’ll get SSI. Never have.
Millennials didn’t grow up with strong families and want to have them, and want to include their parents. Boomers are stuck in their hedonistic, hippie mindset and want nothing to do with their progeny. It breaks the hearts of the millennials and/or makes them mad.
This is the way I see it.

This argument comes up every so often. The answer is yes, I do want you to network locally with others who agree on the problems we face.
No societal problem has ever been solved by a single individual.
Nothing that has been worth doing has ever been done without human networks.
To fail in building local networks is to fail twice: once by not trying, and again by being forced to face what's coming alone.
There is of course the risk of bad actors and infiltration.
First, that's a vetting and validation problem, which is largely solvable. (Vetting is an ongoing process, especially for intent and behavior.)
Second, the person who shrieks "fed!" and "informant!" at every turn is one of two people:
- either a scared individual who shields his own fear and inadequacy by encouraging others to be fearful and inadequate; or
- someone who is deliberately trying to condition a belief of fear and learned helplessness in you.
Atomization is the goal of the people who benefit the most from your continued inaction. Don't give them that advantage.
95% of the black pillers on this site are too chickenshit to talk to their neighbors, but they're the ones encouraging you to violence.
Whether things get violent or not, you will need strong political and social networks to sustain your efforts.
Study literally any low intensity conflict in human history.
There has never once been a side that could have won if they only had less political power. No side that could have won if they only had less social power. If they only had less economic power.
That power comes from one place: organization.
Yes, you have to organize if you want to win.
Yes, you actually have to talk to people.
Yes, you have to close the X app and circulate in your community to attract the kind of support you want.
Peace time networks form the basis for war time networks, whether your war is an election or an armed conflict.
The time to build your networks is now.
