Regime-ology

Regime-ology is a new field of study so the practitioners are still working out the tools and methods for interpreting regime activity. Unlike Kremlinology, on which regime-ology is modeled, the focus is not on a hierarchical structure. The Soviet empire was run by a vertical organization that operated like a corporation. The American empire is a horizontal organization modeled on the Mafia. It is a collection of elite gangster organizations jostling for power within the elite.

With Kremlinology, events could be interpreted as either a signal from the party elite or representing internal party changes. If someone disappeared from the public eye, it meant he had fallen out of favor with the party leaders. If party media reported something hanky about a party member, it was assumed to have been done with the permission of the party leaders to prepare the public for a change. The target was being shaped as a scoundrel so he could be denounced.

Regime-ology is a bit more complicated. If someone disappears for a while, it could mean nothing more than he is having a blood transfusion at one of Google’s secret rejuvenation centers. On the other hand, disparaging information about an oligarch in regime media could simply mean that one mob family is unhappy with another mob family and this is how they are communicating it. Using the media promotes the interests of the gangster class and delivers the message.

That is probably how to interpret the sudden interest by regime media in the famous Hunter Biden laptop from two years ago. For those not interested, this was the laptop that President Biden’s drug-addled son abandoned at a Delaware computer shop, which contained a trove of embarrassing information about the family. In addition to thousands of naked selfies and pics of Hunter smoking crack and meth with prostitutes, it had details of the Biden family criminal dealings.

Regime media dutifully covered this up by declaring it Russian propaganda and going as far as to imply it was a Trump campaign dirty trick. The New York Post, which was the first to report the laptop story, came under withering assault from the Silicon Valley crime families until they dropped the story. Facebook started banning people from their site for mentioning the story. Like the people air brushed from official photos in the Soviet Union, this story was erased from public view.

This is nothing new. The power of regime media is in what they can make the public ignore and this was a typical example. They do this by framing the issue as good guys versus bad guys, which is catnip for the American moralizer. Then they declare the thing to be ignored as the black hat and let the moralizers do the rest. Anyone mentioning the laptop on-line or even in private conversation was declared a crazy QAnon conspiracy theorist by others in their circle.

For no reason at all, the laptop story is back. First the intel community told the New York Times to admit they lied two years ago about it being fake. They did not mention that it was the intel community that lied, of course. Then the Washington Post was told to write about the Biden family’s criminal dealings that were on the laptop. The Post is the official organ of the intelligence community. You will recall that the Post was instrumental in the Russian collusion hoax in 2016.

Even more interesting, the scandal ridden outlet CNN has been given the green light to unleash their nutters on the story. This is a story posted by Dean Obeidallah, a former circus clown and far-left conspiracy theorist. In addition to being a conspiracy hub, CNN is also a popular landing spot for disgraced members of the intel community. Andrew McCabe and Josh Campbell landed there after being forced out of their jobs. The FBI uses CNN to control the Antifa/BLM community.

Taken together, this new interest in the Hunter Biden laptop story suggests the intel community is unhappy with the Biden crime family. It could be a warning shot about the recent rantings by Biden in Poland. This has created huge problems for the foreign policy gangsters running the war with Russia. They have been forced to spend their time telling European leaders that Biden should be ignored. This is not a good look for the Global American Empire in the middle of a crisis.

One way to look at this is that they are preparing the way for Biden to be removed from office this year. The plan was for him to pretend to be in charge through the midterm then hand things off to strong diverse female. Team Biden has been making plans for him to run again in 2024, while he is clearly in rapid decline. The Hunter Biden story could be the leverage to force Team Biden to stick to the deal. He takes the blame for the midterms, retires for health reasons and the laptop disappears.

On the other hand, this could be the start of a plot to hang the Ukraine debacle on Biden and his crooked son. The regime media is being told to sell the Ukraine war as a smashing success, but that can only go on for another month. Reality in the ground says the Russians are slowly grinding up the Ukrainian army. In a month, there will be little of it left in the east. Whether it is by force or by negotiations, the Russians will get the terms they laid out last month.

Then there are the economic sanctions. This is proving to be a disaster for the Global American Empire. The Germans just cut a deal with the Russians to buy gas in rubles, even through both sides are pretending otherwise. The Germans will buy the gas in Euros from Gazprom, which will then convert them immediately into rubles at the agreed upon exchange rate. This is de facto acceptance by Germany that they will buy gas from Russia in rubles. The rest of Europe will now follow.

What we could be seeing here is Afghanistan 2.0. The military industrial complex, the intel community and the foreign policy establishment opposed the withdraw from Afghanistan, but team Biden insisted on it. They let Afghanistan collapse and then let Team Biden take the blame for it. Notice that no one actually responsible in the military, intelligence of foreign policy realm was fired. We could be seeing the same thing afoot with the looming Ukraine disaster.

Again, regime-ology is a new field. We do not know what we do not know, so we are left to our imaginations. Maybe Hunter Biden is so mobbed up that even the thoroughly corrupt FBI has to acknowledge it. Maybe this is a feint to distract from something much worse that is in the wind. All we can know is that Hunter Biden will never be charged and we will never know the truth about the Biden family corruption. In a gangster state like America, those things are handled internally.

Get a load of the IMF spokeswoman musing that this might lead to some “small” arrangements to trade in currencies other than the Dollar or Euro. Like, for instance, China, Russia, India, maybe Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Iran. Yeah, “small”.

But maybe this is what the brainiacs had planned, you know, to get the West to Go Green, and Build Back Better. Perhaps not, though, as they thought they could snarl a bit and everybody would just dall into line.

3g4me- Perhaps LKY had failed to realize that the Singapore he created turned out to be one of the world’s great fertility shredders. The data for 2019 shows their TFR as 1.14. Only four countries show lower TFRs, including ethnically solid South Korea at 1.052. I think other commentators have mentioned this before, but I believe those low fertility rates are due to the hypercompetitive nature of the culture in those countries.

Wild Geese: Absolutely. Back when we first arrived there 30 years ago, they had figured out that their emphasis on reducing birth rates had backfired, because the Malays and pajeets there continued breeding while the Han did not. The careful racial balance of the population was being threatened. There were posters at every subway station entrance urging people to have children – and every picture was of a smiling Han couple. Ultimately made no difference. The Indians there at that time were almost exclusively in menial/service jobs.

Heh your stats are out of date. South Korea’s total fertility rate has dropped to 0.81 for the year 2021. How low can it go? Hong Kong was 0.7 something. “Singapore’s resident total fertility rate (TFR) was 1.10 in 2020; the Singaporean Chinese, Malay and Indian fertility rates were 0.94, 1.83 and 0.97 respectively.” Even 1.83 is well below replacement levels though. And if we look to Malaysia, they follow the same pattern. At the current rate the semi- productive societies of Asia might collapse before ours.

Israel has above replacement fertility. As for Korea and Singapore , both are hard places to raise a family, competitive as you noted but also crowded and expensive. Its really not a big issue if immigration can be curtailed. To do this requires a lot of authoritarianism and frankly a new way to approach market economies Growth is not possible with tech and a declining population and while you can automate and increase efficiency the problem isn’t production but consumption.

[Disclaimer: I’m no expert!] The whole topic of fertility rates and demographic can lead to many projections, none of them favorable*, so far as I know, for our dissident thing. To the best of my knowledge, a nation’s fertility dropping well below replacement rate correlates highly with the level of affluence that nation has achieved. Surely, technology (the Pill) is a major factor. But at bottom, I believe, is the simple perception that having a child comes with many costs. As a nation achieves — or at least promises — such benefits as old age pensions, free medical care and… Read more »

I ordered a 30 lb propane tank last week that’s supposed to arrive later today (found a reasonable price but mixed prior reviews so we’ll see what condition it’s in). Lord only knows what it will cost to fill it. We don’t currently use any propane on a daily basis but I decided it wouldn’t hurt to have a little more on hand.

“Kremlinology” was one of the biggest failures in the history of intelligence. The day before the collapse begun, all of the alleged “experts” thought the Soviet system was stronger than ours. Nobody saw the complete collapse of the system in the weeks and months leading up to it, let alone the years leading up to it. These people did this as a full time job and with access to information gleaned from spies and Soviet traitors. Even Soviet defectors didn’t know how bad things were.

The American political mafia has started to figured that Europe isn’t going to “tow the line” like we used to, sanction threats or not. Ursula Von der Leyenn, former German Minister of Defence, was a disaster for the our military. Thanks to her, almost none of our ships, subs, planes or tanks are even serviceable let alone fit for purpose. And while Chancellor Olaf Scholz may have agreed to bump up military spending, even he knows buying hardware is easy, but convincing young people to enlist is something all together different. Germany has spent the past 70-years demonizing anyone and… Read more »

Wouldn’t surprise me. Bavaria and Lower Saxony recently criminalized displaying the letter Z because the Russians are using it as a sign of victory. According to German authorities, flying the Z is “incitement to aggression” and is therefore a criminal act.

Germany is just as bad or even worse. I take NO pleasure in saying this. But since 1990 or thereabouts, Germany has had governments that slowly and systematically worked towards the extermination of ‘das Volk’. They are every bit as wicked as Hitler; they want you, your children and your grandchildren ‘vernichtet’. It sounds extreme if you are just making the crossing from ‘good, upright conservative in opposition’ to dissident. But Germany’s governments after Kohl have been genocidally anti-German and monstrous. But so have all Western governments.

Bonus points if you filter out the men who can’t figure out what gender they are, and are probably useless in combat.

I have read that close to 50% of the cohort of males 18-25 in Germany are non-German born—thanks to the mass migration/invasion Merkel presided over a decade ago. This age cohort is of prime breeding age, and as such, signals imminent genetic change in the population. Unless these foreign born males are allowed to bring in foreign born wives, Germany is in theory worse off than the USA.

Trump clearly got “played” for virtually all his executive actions, especially early in the panic. Surely invoking the Defense Production Act to obtain ventilators was one such.

It’s not quite a repeat of history, but the Biden Regency just invoked the Defense Production Act to produce batteries for electric vehicles. What this means in principle is that well-connected investors are positioned in suitable industries and perhaps in potential Lithium mines normally stymied by environmental and other restrictions, which can be magically waived since it’s an “emergency.”

I mean, let’s be honest, how many of us have lost at least one self filmed sex tape back in the days of physical tapes? Amiright? Think how much more degenerate this dude is.

” I mean, let’s be honest, how many of us have lost at least one self filmed sex tape back in the days of physical tapes?”

That would be a big zero, both on the existence of such tapes and thus the impossibility of loss.

Hell I’d be rich if I had a nickel for every video I lost of myself smoking crack with Chinese prostitutes. Too much s**t to keep track of in my daily grind.

But seriously, I didn’t see the video. It could be a deep fake, or Hunter could be a moron. But if I were as rich as Hunter, I wouldn’t be fixing laptops anyway. I’d just buy a new one.

The most likely reason he wanted it repaired was that he wanted some of the content saved for later viewing and he didn’t have it stored anywhere else.

It’s highly likely that Hunter has such a limited understanding of tech that he failed to realize that an experienced technician at any halfway decent computer repair shop can easily bypass his login to access the data on his machine.

On top of that, the tech could easily make dozens of bit-perfect clones of the laptop drives to work on later, use for greenmail, hand off for a dead man’s switch, etc.

I really think you’re overestimating Hunter’s cognitive abilities; same goes for a large swath of the population too.

Depending on the problem, a bit level copy of the hard drive is “best practice” before starting work. It may also come in handy in case customer complains of “missing” files after return of laptop.

This^^ Think about it. HB was in his mid-20s in the mid-90s. Unless you worked in the industry or were hobbyists, the 25% that owned home computers didn’t know much about data storage or exposure, they were end users. It’s entirely likely HB never progressed beyond that stage. (He doesn’t strike me as having much motivation beyond impulse gratification. Sad as that is.)

I thought the most likely thing was that it was basically deliberate. H. Biden was trying to create problems for daddy because he wanted something, maybe just attention. It doesn’t seem possible that he was unaware of the possibility of the data on the laptop being observed and perhaps released. Combined with the certain knowledge that he never has been nor ever will be held responsible for his actions he did it to harm his father, maybe he was denied an increase in allowance. I’m a little surprised that the computer shop guy hasn’t killed himself lifting weights or shot… Read more »

Hence schtooping his sister in law?

I couldn’t find a precise timeline of the laptop. But I believe the following is close: April 2019, Hunter drops off the laptop. December 2019, laptop is seized by FBI. Sometime between those dates, the PC tech wisely (?) made copies of the data, which apparently are in many hands by now, including the Congressional Record. Notably, at least per recent testimony, the FBI seems to have lost track of the original laptop. Well, these things happen! A major point: If your intent is to plant disinformation, it seems highly unlikely that you’ll get a son of a former Vice… Read more »

As Z mentioned in response, this is garden-variety junkie behavior. The man is an admitted crack addict who frequently photographed himself with underaged chicks and who banged his dying brother’s life. The laptop is perfectly consistent with Hunter’s life and behavior and the only surprise is he didn’t sell the content to someone.

Please don’t misunderstand my comment, for I make tons of typos here, and I’m not mocking you. But reading the line “banged his dying brother’s life” gave me a comical vision of him f$%#@! the life out of his dying brother.

I think that this was his second or third lost or stolen laptop, this self-reported information from the hard drive of this particular laptop copied by the repairman. I attribute this neglected laptop (never pick up despite several reminders from the repair shop owner) to Hunter being a nihilistic junkie.

Oh, and by the way, before a House committee, the FBI guy supposedly ultimately in charge of the laptop reported that it has gone a glimmering while in their custody. Huh. Imagine that.

Drugs suck like that, Don’t do drugs.

If not for the Big Guy, old crackhead Hunter would’ve been shot and killed in a failed armed robbery years and years ago.

Another possible scenario is that he left it there, and ignored calls to go get it, because he wanted the information to be found.

Some have theorized that the sudden reports in the media are an attempt to mitigate the damage if Hunter and his uncle get indicted.

The corruption across the board in this (former) country is incredible. I suppose it’s always been this way to one degree or another, but probably more covert and behind the scenes. Now, it’s shoved in our faces non-stop. Then, of course, we’re told “what are you talking about, nothing for your lying eyes to see here – move on.” If it weren’t for alt sites like Zman, among others, to put events into perspective, the cognitive dissonance would be mind blowing – it practically is anyway. Very strange and unsettling times to be sure.

“The corruption across the board in this (former) country is incredible. I suppose it’s always been this way to one degree or another” No, it hasn’t. The corruption in this country (and The West in general) matches perfectly with the decline of Christianity. Just look at how the government handled the Robber Barons of the Gilded Age. Standard Oil and many other giant companies were broken up. Contrast that to how Congress looks the other way (or outright supports) the present-day Big Tech monopolies. A hundred years ago either the Robber Barons were too principled to bribe Congress, or Congress… Read more »

I beg to differ, the key phrase being “to one degree or another”. However, I absolutely do agree with you it is much worse now and also the abandonment of religion has played a significant role – along with spawn of much of the ruling class that showed up in numbers right around WW2 curiously enough…

I rarely down vote here, but your illusions about history gave me pause. Sorry buddy, but corruption is part and parcel of civilization. Our nation has plenty of skeletons in its closet. Your Walt Disney* version of American history falls way short of the facts.

To imagine that Big Oil was upset about having its monopolies broken up into smaller firms is about amusing as Brer Rabbit pleading to not be thrown into the bramble patch. 😀

May the aged, decrepit structure collapse all the sooner. Then whoever is left can rebuild anew on the foundations, if even those foundations keep any residual value. Disclaimer: I am not calling for the violent overthrow of the United States. 😀 (Of course, this message, along with my others, will be placed in my “permanent file” all the same.) To use an analogy. Most of us have lived, or at least driven past, abandoned old properties. Perhaps it was a modest home or a proud old Victorian? No matter. For whatever reasons, the home fell into disrepair. It wasn’t painted.… Read more »

Lots of those places around here in old Southside Virginia where I’m parked temporarily. Place is very remote. Now with the trees still bare in early spring, many rotting structures in varying states of collapse look out eerily through a screen of bare branches. They are all around here in this forgotten county. I often wonder when these places were built, who lived there. Were there families and lots of children and noise; what were their hopes, aspirations and names? And I wonder what happened to them, why these former living places now lay dead, and where those who lived… Read more »

i think the ukraine debacle will be much worse for the US than afghanistan. it will show the entire world that the US is toothless, and can be ignored without consequence. right now china and russia are playing rope-a-dope, letting old pudding head punch himself out. sure as shit they will be going on offense, just as the US enters a huge recession. that’s when the real gangster behavior starts, as the big fish start whacking each other to get more of the rapidly shrinking pie.

I am/was of two minds on holding onto debt.

I have a very low interest rate on a loan, which i pay back with weakening dollars.

OTOH, as prices for everything goes up, i have fewer dollars to pay back the loan with.

I guess that as the stress of paying back the loan becomes uncomfortable, pay it off before it becomes unbearable.

Interesting comments all. My only contribution is to say, don’t worry about unsecured loans. You can pretty much walk away from those. It’s those pesky secured loans that have a charter mortgage on them.

DO pay your taxes. It’s relatively cheap protection money. If you don’t, you put a large target on your back.

run the cards up as high as possible buying hard assets, then take out a second mortgage or heloc, so you appear assetless (forget the moral about keeping your good name clear-these are animals you are dealing with) then when tshtf you can continue to live in the house until foreclosure, and then renegotiate mortgage payment terms if there’s even anyone left to negotiate with–or declare bankruptcy trump style.

I was toying with the idea of sucking out the equity in my home, and perhaps investing the proceeds intelligently. If housing goes to hell as it did just over ten years ago, let the bank take my home now worth half what I borrowed against it. Alas, those plans are on hold. Florida is a “recourse” State, which means that even with what is a secured loan, the lender could come after other assets. However, if one lives in one of the few non-recourse States…

It was funny to see old Joe telling China to dump Russia. Why would there, the Chinese suspect that at some point down the line they will have a serious conflict with the US, so they make the smart move and back Russia today

It could have been so different, Hillary’s reset should have been a grand bargain between the US and Russia, that was the clever move. But the US elite no longer makes smart long-term strategic moves
