 Sayonara to the Americanese.

Well, we are in 'A Period of Transition' now between the two 'major powers'. The USA has done its dash, already, dead broke and toxic, and are, indeed, fading a bit, as is obvious by the increasing rhetoric of how essential they are to everyone and everything forever, when they just aren't. Too much spending, too much debt, too much waste.
At the same time, China is rising and doing very well, thank you very much, and saying very little. And, for China, this is just the beginning of the rise. Give it a hundred or two hundred years to peak before China is fully risen. That's how it goes.
The odd thing about the American Empire is how short it lasted compared with the other empires of the past. About a hundred years. That's Chicken Skin Music in Time. Chicken Skin Music is fun and innovative, for sure, but it doesn't last very long. 100 years, even 200 years at a long dangling twitchy stretch. In real comparison, the USA, that's one shit empire in comparison with any other in our world's long history.
Europe is doing okay, really. The Middle East isn't important. Anymore. South America is a bit ill prepared, and we wont really know Giant Fully Industrialised and Monetised Africa for some time yet...until well after China...but it will arise, in a few hundred years, and,likely, United.
As for Global Warming, well, obviously, it's going to be a very very hot fucking world. Duh.

Sanders and Corbyn/ such a lost opportunity that it beggars belief.

 In terms of two 'medium-ly sort of' moderately developed world 'kind-of' democracies, there were great opportunities for both the UK and the USA in recent times/years.

The USA could have made Bernie Sanders President, and the UK could have made Jeremy Corbyn Prime Minister, but they just... didn't. Bernie was wiped out by the rampant capitalists, and Jeremy by the Jewish lobby.
We know that. And, at best or worse, neither was really a serious Socialists...both were in fact social reformers calling themselves Socialists. Proper, decent folk with great ideas and a love for their countries. They had proposed changes that would be good...that would actually work.
'The People' chose instead what they and the world now have, and that's really, really stupid and awful.
It still makes me sick.
The trouble with actively choosing stupidity is that it always puts you back more years than you think. It's not 4 years, you go back 10 or 20 years. with every election.
Every fucking time.
It's so fucking obvious.
Every fucking time.
Doesn't everyone know that?
By now?
Look!
Surely?
What is so wrong with Human Progress that it makes people so bizarre and sick and dopey all the time when there were real and active choices right there?
That's all gone now.
'Hey, we choose to go backwards! We are not choosing to make things better, we are choosing to fuck everything up!'
Idiots.
Prize idiots.
World Democracies, hey, make better choices, please!
Or is the time up?
I hope not.
Why would one ever want to go and see the UK or the USA?
They are Fucking idiots.
The morons have taken over the liquor store.

Astounding Film

 I think the film that had the greatest meaning for me was called "Coming Home" a movie from China, with subtitle sin English, set in the red days of the Cultural Revolution.

The story of a family of wife husband and daughter, and all that happened to them, and how they survived as a family.

Astounding film.

Electric Vehicles in Australia, Melbourne, Victoria.

 The concern I have with owning an electric vehicle is that at the next Victorian election, the liberals will win and dump a lot of expensive charges on electric car owners, as their policy is to support oil companies. They will also substantially increase electricity charges because that’s just the kind of knuckle dragging reactionary bastards they are.

No matter what we would like, to happen, I think Israel will just run wilfully killing whoever it wants, as many terrified children as they want, drenched in greed and hatred, and will greatly profit from this continuing genocidal horror, and will never be brought to any kind of justice at all. Life is essentially like that...& Israel is absolutely like that.

May the new year embolden you to run free, like wild horses set on fire.

 

That Malaysian Flight ...MH370? you know the one that was accidentally shot down by the US navy and crashed in the South China Sea ... but everyone said it didn't.

 So, you had a passenger plane going from Malaysia to Beijing, and over the South China Sea, it disappeared and then, if you believe the story, it turned around for no reason and went thousands of kilometres away to where there was no aerial surveillance etc...an unknown spot in the unknown Southern Ocean.

So, it disappeared from the most surveilled sky on the planet, to disappear to where no one was looking. I doubt it. I think it was shot down by one of the very many US Navy ships, and by accident, in that area of the South China Sea where the US were fully conducting advanced techno  'ping' operations trying to undo China's internet and defences systems right there. An awful error. 

Within a few days, the guy in charge of the investigation, the Malaysian President, was given, for no reason, about 8 million US dollars from Saudi Arabia, as a personal gift, and within a week the US President arrived in Malaysia and gave the country a brilliant pro-Malaysian trade and defence program. Unasked for.

I would think, using Occam's razor, that the plane was accidentally shot down and then the USA covered up the mess, retrieved the wreckage from the South China Sea...and apologised to China, but it was best that the occurrence was never reported. It would have destabilised the relationship between the US and China.

It is okay to wage war in the Middle East between Israel and neighbours, because that arena doesn't matter any more. As we can see now...but nothing can disturb the delicate peace that stretches from South to North Asia. Nothing. It is far too important. That's the only 'tectonic plate' in the 21st century.
