Oz satire: please leave them alone

A report into the growing anti-surveillance state rhetoric on the nation’s social media feeds has found that hurting mobile detection cameras and disembowelling them for the precious metals inside would be ‘very unAustralian’.

The report, commissioned by the Federal Government and Palantir, uncovered some chilling facts about the growing movement against them knowing what you’re up to at all times.

The government has long championed the popular dogma that if you have done nothing wrong, you don’t need to worry. That has grown to a point where facial recognition technology being rolled out a large public gatherings like football games have become an extension of that dogma. If you’re going to the footy, it’s OK because you’re not planning on throwing coins at players or bits of fruit like they do in Port Adelaide. You don’t need to worry if that’s not you.

However, the growing online sentiment against surveillance tech has the government worried.

“They are very easy to tip over, you just need a few strong blokes and the thing is defenceless,” said someone authorised to speak on the report’s findings.

“And inside the box, there’s copper and other precious metals all through it. There’s alternators, wiring. Catalytic converters. We’ve even had the tyres pinched off a few of them. This type of thing is very unAustralian and I hope people understand that,”

“There would be thousands of dollars worth of copper in these things and you can have one on its side and devoid of any copper, gold or whatever in a matter of minutes. If you cut the power supply first, it won’t even notify the authorities that it’s been pushed over and having its valuable techno-intestines ripped out of it like a wildebeest in a crocodile’s wallow. They cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, too. So please leave them alone and behave.”

Ukraine’s regime to rebury yet another Nazi collaborator

Ukraine to rebury another Nazi collaborator

Ukraine has exhumed the remains of Evgeny Konovalets, founder of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) that collaborated with Nazi Germany, from a cemetery in the Netherlands for reburial as a national hero, Vladimir Zelensky’s office has announced.

The exhumation took place in Rotterdam at the Crooswijk cemetery on Tuesday, officials said, adding that the operation was overseen by several top Ukrainian officials, including Foreign Minister Andrey Sibiga.

Konovalets’ remains are to be temporarily reburied at Ukraine’s National Military Memorial Cemetery, with a farewell ceremony planned at a Kiev cathedral, the statement added.

Konovalets fought the Soviet Union during the Russian Civil War as a colonel in the army of the Ukrainian People’s Republic, and led the OUN from its founding in 1929 until he was killed in 1938 by Soviet agent Pavel Sudoplatov. According to declassified documents, a group of Ukrainian nationalists led by Konovalets – codenamed “Consul I” – had supplied German intelligence with data on Poland from 1925 and moved into “espionage and sabotage” work inside the Soviet Union after 1939.

when Nato/EU starts WW3 and the libraries burn

from Glen Meder

Picture the fourth day.

Not the first day of a blackout — the first day is almost fun. Candles, card games, everybody’s a little giddy. The fourth day is different. The fridge emptied out on day two. The water pressure is dropping. Somebody in the house has a cut that’s started to look angry around the edges, and the roads aren’t clear enough to get to an urgent care that may not be open anyway.

And you find yourself reaching for your phone to look something up.

That’s the moment I want to talk about. Because that reflex — that automatic reach — is the single biggest hole in most people’s preparedness.

We have become absolutely dependent on modern technology for every aspect of our lives.

Think about where your practical knowledge actually lives. How to treat that wound. How much bleach purifies how much water. How to keep the food you have left from spoiling without power. How to get a garden producing calories, not just salad.

It’s on YouTube/Rumble. It’s on a blog post. It’s in a browser bookmark.

Which means it’s on someone else’s computer, at the end of a fiber line, in a building, powered by the same grid that just went down.

It’s easy to be reliant on tech for simple, meaningless questions like “How many miles wide is Lake Michigan.” But we take this for granted. If this tech is not functioning, when we need it, it’s not a question of how big a great lake is. Instead, it’s a question on how to purify water, stop a cut from bleeding, or how to know if food is safe to eat.

I know this might sound far-fetched, but in 2021, Texas put millions of people in the dark and cold for the better part of a week. Hurricanes routinely take rural counties offline for ten days or more. This is definitely something that can happen, and I am not a fan of putting all of my eggs in a basket.

Instead, I want to show you something Marjory Wildcraft and The Grow Network just released.

They took their complete archive — 15 years of homesteading, herbal medicine, food production, food preservation, and preparedness work — and loaded all of it onto a single 1TB drive. Then Marjory opened her personal library and added that on top: military field manuals, the complete Foxfire series, permaculture texts, water purification, off-grid power, emergency comms, and medical and dental references written specifically for when there is no doctor and no dentist. Plus an archive of 38,000 repair guides, because in a long emergency the person who can fix things is the most valuable person in the county.

26,952 files. 921 gigabytes. In something that fits in a shirt pocket.

You plug it into a laptop and it opens. No account, no password, no app, no signal, no subscription. Pair it with a small solar setup and you have a functioning reference library in a world that temporarily doesn’t have one.

We recently interviewed her on this, you can check out our interview and learn more about the personal digital library here. 

We’re far enough away in NZ from Nato’s prime targets for annihilation — Iran, Russia, China — not to be affected too much directly, but there’ll be very limited perhaps no more Internet. Buying a survival book in print form is a good idea. —Eds

Ukraine’s Nazi regime is Stuffed: Nato can’t stop record Russian glide bombs, ballistic missiles

Rachel Blevins interviews Mark Sleboda

While the Mainstream Media has been working to paint a picture of Ukraine “standing up” to Russia and Zelensky getting back on Trump’s good side… the reality is becoming increasingly bleak for the Ukrainian people, as the war of attrition Russia is waging takes a toll both militarily and economically.

International Relations and Security Analyst Mark Sleboda noted that although the West’s air defense systems have never been able to stop Russian ballistic missiles, the reason Kiev is lobbying so hard for interceptors is because they are on the brink of Russia reaching “not just air superiority, but air dominance” and leaving Ukraine a land-locked shell of a country.

Oz: Bird-brained scheme? Feds want to ‘vaccinate’ wild species but poultry exempt

ENVIRONMENT Minister Murray Watt has announced that the Federal Government will vaccinate wild birds because federal biosecurity officers using the dodgy and discredited PCR would have us believe there’s some sort of avian flu crisis.

But Mr Watt has been forced to admit the obvious, that a broad vaccination of wild birds is neither practical nor feasible because the vaccine requires two doses, “making it too difficult to catch wild birds twice”.

However, the government will vaccinate wild birds where possible, though the main priority is protecting vulnerable native species held in captivity. Poultry will be exempt, possibly because vaccinated poultry is banned in some markets.

The vaccine is the traditional “dead virus” or inactivated H5 bird flu vaccine manufactured by the veterinary pharmaceutical company Zoetis. It is not the mRNA variety.

Bird flu or avian influenza was first discovered in 1878 in northern Italy by researcher Edoardo Perroncito, who initially described it as a severe, contagious poultry disease causing high mortality known as “fowl plague”.

However it has never been a major issue until modern-day governments seized upon it as an excuse for mass culls of poultry livestock and the imposition of biosecurity regimes. Interestingly, the first major cull for avian influenza was in Hong Kong in 1997 when the Chinese Communist Party took over administration of the city.

In March of that year the H5N1 virus was first isolated during localized outbreaks on chicken farms in Hong Kong. In May a three-year-old boy was allegedly infected and died.

When a number of human infections appeared again in December, the new Hong Kong administrators declared a city-wide poultry cull and eliminated the entire flock. The administrators had also imposed a highly restrictive new national security law in June.

The obvious question here is, did the new CCP-appointed administration use the biosecurity scare to take away freedoms and food security from the Hong Kong population?

Spanish woman describes moment of terror after a migrant from Morocco snuck into her bed

from Remix News

A young Moroccan man with an extensive criminal past was arrested and swiftly convicted on Spanish territory on Saturday after being caught climbing into the bed of a 62-year-old sleeping woman in her Ceuta home. The victim, Beatriz Ferron, has appeared on national media to describe the shocking experience of having a man wearing only his underwear crawl into her bed.

“Well, because he jumped onto the balcony—I live in the center on the fifth floor, mind you. Yes. He jumped onto my bedroom balcony. He came into my bedroom and got into my bed. I thought he was my husband, and when I turned around, I found a stranger in his underwear in my bed,” said Ferron.

“Thank God I wasn’t alone. It’s bad enough… If I had been alone and had given him time, I don’t know what he would have done. Really, I don’t know,” she continued.

The 20-year-old repeat sexual offender, who had entered Ceuta during the large-scale crossing on July 30 which saw over 100,000 migrants invade Spanish territory, forced his way into a fifth-floor apartment near Paseo de las Palmeras early Friday morning.

Around 7:45 a.m. he reached the main bedroom balcony, entered, and lay down beside the woman while she slept.

She said that the family quickly called the police and that he did not have time to get violent with her.

National Police units quickly sealed off the area and detained him nearby, close to Paseo de las Palmeras and the Puerta de África Hotel, only a short time after he escaped.

The woman probably won’t vote for the Leftists supporting this again?
