We now have a solid motive. Since January, US troops have been arriving in Europe and building up for a large military exercise which runs up until June.<br />

<br />
Almost certainly, coronavirus is a deliberate bio attack on the Defender-Europe military exercise in the Baltic Sea / Germany region, which includes 30,000 US troops and would have been the biggest exercise in 25 years.<br />
<br />
Thus Wuhan was likely a fake/controlled outbreak. The purpose was to create a smokescreen to release the virus on Europe without it looking like a deliberate attack. <br />
<br />
That explains China's magical containment of the virus. And why Xi Jinping was "brave" enough to visit Wuhan recently. And why China's confident propaganda has instantly kicked back into overdrive.<br />
<br />
There never was a pandemic in Wuhan, it was all theatre, an elaborate Truman Show which the gullible world ate up. Or there was a Wuhan outbreak, but it was controllable because they engineered a cure/vaccine along with engineering the virus.<br />
<br />
Now all the conspiracy talk about coronavirus is no longer fringe, it's more likely fact. And with the focus on Europe and the Baltic Sea, expect Russia to also be involved with China in this operation.<br />
<br />
Note the troops started arriving in January, same time as the virus hit.<br />
<br />
Also, note how China is now blaming the US military for the origin of the virus. It all fits into the motive of discrediting the US military and kicking it out of Europe and Asia.<br />
<br />
Also:<br />
- The epicentre of South Korea's outbreak in <a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/fha017/epicentre_of_south_korea_outbreak_daegu_is/">Daegu</a> is surrounded by US bases<br />
- Italy's outbreak is in the north where US bases have been locked down<br />
- Washington State's coronavirus <a href="https://twitter.com/mralstoner/status/1238719516143546368">outbreak</a> is also near military bases<br />
<br />
And the Iran outbreak was probably faked/controllable too, coordinated by China/Russia. The purpose being to scare surrounding US bases into retreat or shutdown.<br />
<br />
And if think China would never do something like this, see the note at the bottom of the page, about the location of Australia's flesh-eating bacteria outbreak.<br />

The Pentagon has ordered a halt to the deployment of forces for Defender-Europe 20, which would have been the military’s largest exercise on the Continent in a generation, because of concerns about the coronavirus, U.S. European Command said Monday...<br />
<br />
<b>Around 20,000 U.S.-based troops were to take part in Defender, joining thousands of other American and allied forces already based</b> in places like Poland, Germany and the Baltic States. The exercise was to run through June...<br />
<br />
<b>Since January, the Army has deployed about 6,000 soldiers from the U.S. to Europe</b>, including a division headquarters and an armored brigade combat team. It also moved 9,000 vehicles and pieces of equipment from Army prepositioned stocks and 3,000 pieces of equipment via sea from the United States to the Continent, EUCOM said.</blockquote>

And if you think China wouldn't do something like this, then explain why ground-zero of Australia's <a href="https://twitter.com/mralstoner/status/1151770826703663104">flesh-eating bacteria</a> outbreak is right next door to our naval training headquarters. That's the handiwork of either Russia or China, and Australia is an awfully long way from Russia, so China is the likely culprit. Australia has no shortage of Chinese agents hidden in our 2 million Chinese immigrant population.<br />

Trump's apparent backflip on ZTE Phones reveals <b>a disturbing paternal mindset about China</b>. He first takes a hard line with China, but in the next breath comforts them with a constructive way forward. He is trying to shape China.<br />
<br />
But this approach will fail just like the US failed to shape the Middle East. Just like you cannot turn Muslim countries into democracies, you cannot turn China into a nation that plays fair, and works for win-win mutually beneficial outcomes.<br />
<br />
China has a 2000 year old supremacist narrative, where they are the top dog, and everyone else ("barbarians") kowtows to them. That is what Xi is all about, reverting to type.<br />
<br />
Read these books on China, and see what we're up against:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>The 100 Year Marathon, by Dr Michael Pillsbury</li>
<li>Bully of Asia, by Steven Mosher</li>
<li>Hegemon, by Steven Mosher</li>
</ul>
<br />
Watch Chinese TV and you'll see a supremacist narrative running through their views:<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_JeHH5mW14">The three ‘genetic defects’ of the Western model</a><br />
<br />
They view Western democracies as a failed and dying model, that's why Xi is running the other way, back to authoritarian/totalitarian control freakery. Chinese TV is laughing at us, mocking us. They already have a supremacist narrative, and it's insane to think we can shape China like we tried to shape the Middle East.<br />
<br />
Nothing but force will halt the march of China. Stop trying to shape China, and gear up the military and allies, because they will goose step over everyone until they are stopped. And just like North Korea is stalling for time, China will also stretch out negotiations with false promises and token gestures, while their military advances and expands over the globe.<br />

Trump is falling short of his promises, Brexit has stalled, Le Pen missed out, and the Alt-Right movement drove itself into a <a href="https://ideologee.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/the-alt-right-brand-is-dead.html">ditch</a> in Charlottesville.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvNtoJ65iQy3IbSURd8wjyU_opl_aO0Q2zH7dp6_t5INh0rX-5n7Xn3cnpSLDOxZnb6k-phvwruO_4TO1axW15Le9yBjP2JXHnhScOoL2ZyqgSWaEbciuk-jrlXlEZErN7BYZ_Nfyhyphenhyphenoc/s1600/orania+sign+x.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="265" data-original-width="477" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvNtoJ65iQy3IbSURd8wjyU_opl_aO0Q2zH7dp6_t5INh0rX-5n7Xn3cnpSLDOxZnb6k-phvwruO_4TO1axW15Le9yBjP2JXHnhScOoL2ZyqgSWaEbciuk-jrlXlEZErN7BYZ_Nfyhyphenhyphenoc/s1600/orania+sign+x.jpg" /></a></div><br />
All of which begs the question: is this a viable long-term movement, or a balloon about to fizz out across the room. The answer lies in two quotes:<br />
<br />
1. YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW<br />
<br />
Trump, Farage and Le Pen all have two things in common:<br />
<br />
A - They are largely <b>self-made, spontaneous leaders</b>. Obviously they are influenced by their parents, but otherwise they are self-made.<br />
<br />
B - Their support base is <b>largely reactive in nature</b>. Brexit and Le Pen were largely reactions to the Merkel-inspired invasion of refugees into Europe, and the increase in terrorism across Europe. And while Trump's support was based on a wider range of anti-globalist issues, that too is somewhat reactive.<br />
<br />
And the problem with the identitarian movement generally is:<br />
<br />
C - The relationships<b> </b>between supporters tend to be <b>superficial and ephemeral</b> i.e. we come together around campaigns, or the news/outrage of the day, and we communicate mostly via social media. But those connections largely rescind the rest of the time, and we're left on our own.<br />
<br />
2. POLITICS IS DOWNSTREAM OF CULTURE<br />
<br />
But in order to create a viable long-term movement, we need to move beyond spontaneous reactions, and into the<b> proactive realm</b>. And we need to move beyond ephemeral relationships and into a <b>deeper relationship dynamic</b> i.e. a supportive community that embodies our ideas, and inspires us to action, and keeps us on track, and has its own momentum, resources, spirit and wisdom to guide us.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizNt-E5luEmNR4uZrjvPkNywSB70kXcR9E-wFlE8fUZYYVHcV4FpjfAOTp2_HFfS6-ddT3sR9NKANdyWrZqMs731QQPOBz8BLVSeadu_0IVqNqQOLxXFXo1_MT75PaqFyTGMESy_osSKg/s1600/orania.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="396" data-original-width="634" height="123" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizNt-E5luEmNR4uZrjvPkNywSB70kXcR9E-wFlE8fUZYYVHcV4FpjfAOTp2_HFfS6-ddT3sR9NKANdyWrZqMs731QQPOBz8BLVSeadu_0IVqNqQOLxXFXo1_MT75PaqFyTGMESy_osSKg/s200/orania.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>A sustainable movement requires a group with a sound mind, body and spirit, in order to have any chance of surviving in a tough world. And the enormity of that challenge necessitates a deeper relationship dynamic. Ad hoc connections just don't create the type of dynamic required to build a thriving group, the connections are too weak.<br />
<br />
So, how do we build such a group that is proactive and produces its own leaders? And has a deep relationship dynamic that creates momentum? That is the million dollar question, and that is<b> the next phase</b> of rebuilding the identity-based movement. Successful groups have certain qualities and we need to discover what they are.<br />
<br />
Below, is a taste of what community organising looks like. These videos are mostly on the liberal side of politics, and some of them borrow from religion, but nonetheless there are lessons to be learned here for all identitarians.<br />
<br />
Due to health problems, I can't do this topic justice. This will just be a glimpse, a taste of a much bigger topic. Others will have to take the ball and run with it, if our movement is to have any future. It's a much bigger topic, and smarter people than me will need to get involved.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF1Qu-MdPZBHlzXpr9q-gcZjEtiefpMlGZzXmdq1fBQTbfOCerCvibl07jagzDQFNtWqqoGxswbQcI9Zn17ksIYyEUQioYjHM9fWV9NFzUzqVyAA-HOIP8eJwFNCnWplVZV-mVMGpdtqU/s1600/south+african+white+community+orania.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="422" data-original-width="626" height="133" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF1Qu-MdPZBHlzXpr9q-gcZjEtiefpMlGZzXmdq1fBQTbfOCerCvibl07jagzDQFNtWqqoGxswbQcI9Zn17ksIYyEUQioYjHM9fWV9NFzUzqVyAA-HOIP8eJwFNCnWplVZV-mVMGpdtqU/s200/south+african+white+community+orania.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>But this is the direction we need to head in. In order to be creating leaders, and taking charge of our own destiny, we need mature communities.<br />
<br />
Note that I don't see small isolated communities as the ultimate goal, but rather, as <b>communities being the vehicle</b> to create a much bigger network of co-ordinated groups. As small groups, we are still impotent. Only when co-ordinated into a large group do we become effective in politics, and effective if some sort of collapse happens. From little things, big things grow.<br />
<br />
On the <a href="https://groupfitnessmbs.blogspot.com/">Group Fitness</a> website, I outlined a structure to bind together the various subgroups of white/Western world with a unifying meta narrative. But we also need to build specific groups, and that is question here i.e. what are the qualities of successful groups and how do we organise them at the community level?<br />
<br />
This is the next phase of the identity-based movement. Either we <b>make this transition</b> to community organising, or we die out like the dodo bird.<br />

Successful religions work on both levels of our nature to suppress selfishness, or at least to channel it in ways that often pay dividends for the group...<br />
<br />
Religions are moral exoskeletons.<b> If you live in a religious community, you are enmeshed in a set of norms, relationships, and institutions that ... influence your behaviour</b>. But if you are an atheist living in a looser community with a less binding moral matrix, you might have to rely somewhat more on an internal moral compass... That might sound appealing to rationalists, but it is also a recipe for anomie--Durkheim's word for what happens to a society that no longer has a shared moral order. (It means, literally, "normlessness"). We evolved to live, trade, and trust within shared moral matrices. When societies lose their grip on individuals, allowing all to do as they please, the result is often a decrease in happiness and an increase in suicide...<br />
<br />
Societies that forgo the exoskeleton of religion should reflect carefully on what will happen to them over several generations. We don’t really know, because the first atheistic societies have only emerged in Europe in the last decades.

Let us embrace a realistic picture of human nature, then maximize the benefits of our hivishness while minimizing its negative externalities.</blockquote>That's just a start. It's a much bigger topic than I can cover.<br />

Note that I'm not advocating for either atheism or religion. The identitarian movement contains both subgroups, who will create their own distinct communities, and we need to get along and learn from each other.<br />

<br />
I have no doubt that China is very active in covert warfare, and a lot of "<a href="https://i.imgur.com/nLtPiUv.jpg">accidents</a>" in the West are not <a href="http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw/bus-infernos-exposes-maintenance-issues/news-story/b2319bb798b73628fdbd409cf611d02d">accidents</a> at all, particularly in my country Australia which has a very large Chinese population, and is probably crawling with Chinese operatives.<br />
<br />
My health doesn't permit me to compile much proof of this activity, so I'll just post this speculative video, and time will tell whether or not China is hacking the ionosphere, and influencing storms in other parts of the world.<br />
<br />

<br />
We're told that, throughout history, the incumbent power under-estimates the strength of the new rising power. If China now has such technology, I have no doubt they will forge ahead and use it. <i>There is certainly no shortage of "<a href="http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-09-08/irma-katia-and-jose-hurricane-trio-baffles-scientists/8884834">unusual</a>" and "record" weather events over the past couple of years.</i><br />
<br />
If China is using technology like HAARP to create storms, one clue to look for is a preceding event in the news that would provoke China into using it e.g. if some political action in the West goes against China. (For instance, there was a noticeable spike in global "accidents" following China's stock market crash in 2015, which they <a href="http://ideologee.blogspot.com.au/2015/10/tianjin-confidence-more-important-than.html">blamed</a> on America).<br />
<br />
Also, if China is engineering storms, it may think that America is doing likewise, so China may even think that natural storms in China are caused by America, and retaliate.<br />
<br />
This is all speculative, but this is the spooky future we face. I have no doubt that China has an army of mad scientists trying to create all sorts of new weapons, and it's only a matter of time before that reality dawns upon us.<br />
<br />
And as history shows, it usually comes sooner than you think, as the speed of the rising power catches everyone by surprise.<br />
<br />
(Russia may also have similar technology, but I'd expect Russia to be more reticent to use it. China, on the other hand, strikes me as reckless and desperate to regain power, by any means).<br />

Well spoken, well presented, reasonable, and civilised, Spencer articulated an alternative position between mainstream cuckservatives and far-right lunatics. A "middle" ground that could appeal to the masses. And appeal it did, breaking into the public debate at the highest levels along with the rise of Trump.<br />

<br />
Alas, over the past year, that clear delineation has been muddied by Spencer flirting with the Nazi fringe, and failing to disavow the lunatics. Examples include:<br />
<br />
- Downplaying Nazi salutes as Roman salutes.<br />
- His "fashy" haircut.<br />
- Describing the torch rally as "beautiful" when told it looked like a lynch mob.<br />
- Thinking that marching with a "Unite The Right" crowd was a good idea.<br />
- Bringing the far-right Jewish fixation back into the frame.<br />

<br />
The end result is that the clear delineation is now gone, and Spencer appears not much different from the far-right loonies. There is no Alt-Right anymore, just the old far-right, at least that's how it appears to the public.<br />
<br />
And now with the Charlottesville tragedy on top of that, it's game over for the Alt-Right brand. There is no coming back.<br />
<br />
RamzPaul <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHKU1n5kTWQ&feature=youtu.be&t=8m42s">warned</a> Spencer about flirting with the neo-Nazi fringe. But for some reason, he ignored it. I have no idea whether Spencer is naive or what his motives are. But it's too late now.<br />
<br />
So, now anyone who wants to create a serious Alt-Right political or cultural group, is going to have to find their own brand, and learn from these lessons, and proactively keep a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQivfk2WYAg">huge chasm</a> between themselves and the lunatic neo-Nazi fringe, and probably abandon all forms of street protests too, and focus on <a href="http://ideologee.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/white-violence-faux-power-and-group_14.html">real power</a> instead of faux power.<br />
<br />
Spencer said that Charlottesville was the "beginning of white civil rights movement". It's not. I don't know what planet Spencer is on, but he has now lost mainstream interest, not gained it.<br />
<br />
Ultimately the future of white/Western people requires us to build articulated cultural/community type groups, from the ground up. That's not a rally, not a protest, and not a street movement. It's a <a href="http://groupfitnessmbs.blogspot.com.au/">holistic</a> group that serves all our needs, and draws in everyday people, rather than turning them away with neo-Nazi crap.<br />

VICE News has some watchable <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P54sP0Nlngg">coverage</a> of Charlottseville, albeit a skewed coverage. But this is how the general public now sees the Alt-Right movement, as Nazis.<br />
<br />
The whole point of the Alt-Right, as I understood it, was to differentiate from both Cuckservatives and Neo-Nazis, and offer something in between that would attract the general public. But now all the public sees is Nazis. This is what happens when you get a fashy haircut and start chanting with torches and flags.ideologeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05342734091237801188noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026305895419068661.post-66137840298125996642017-08-14T15:18:00.002+10:002017-08-16T15:10:45.347+10:00White violence, faux power, and group fitness<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnOQtkFx1n8o6R-Ew91fumPrb7XSb1iZ-JfVBEjVILqoVj9NqJVaPVoQ1sgmNpQLHYuPkl60mMxC8BZENBtYUosAaYNFjRpwlvhyphenhyphenadDMDAPmJmHzclj8ybCO-_6WF27ELZC3Sr73M4h94/s1600/unite+the+right+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="1200" height="133" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnOQtkFx1n8o6R-Ew91fumPrb7XSb1iZ-JfVBEjVILqoVj9NqJVaPVoQ1sgmNpQLHYuPkl60mMxC8BZENBtYUosAaYNFjRpwlvhyphenhyphenadDMDAPmJmHzclj8ybCO-_6WF27ELZC3Sr73M4h94/s200/unite+the+right+2.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>In the wake of the violence in Charlottesville this weekend, we should be asking the question: what is power?<br />
<br />
Is it found in noisy demonstrations?<br />
<br />
Is it found in stirring speeches?<br />
<br />
Is it found behind a cudgel and a crusader shield?<br />
<br />
Is it found under a flag or a torch?<br />
<br />
Is it found in an angry or witty YouTube video?<br />
<br />
Or is it found in terrorism? In driving your car into a counter-protest?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhepS__u8bhp81Gdv_NwRu9Ukb7wLOUI1b9RMf1qrq2liZEgNezxWMydJ0CdRl9oRZOdRXQuEvmYaRb-76t_wOeoUN-x5JOLbdXd0mAv9tvspuz8pvE1IBtsTMG_aRepthv1naQUrwC0Fg/s1600/james+fields.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="420" data-original-width="700" height="120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhepS__u8bhp81Gdv_NwRu9Ukb7wLOUI1b9RMf1qrq2liZEgNezxWMydJ0CdRl9oRZOdRXQuEvmYaRb-76t_wOeoUN-x5JOLbdXd0mAv9tvspuz8pvE1IBtsTMG_aRepthv1naQUrwC0Fg/s200/james+fields.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>Nope, these are all faux power. They make you feel good in the moment, and feel like you're doing something, but ultimately they do very little to advance the interests of white/Western people. And terrorism will do the opposite, it will just increase the scrutiny and control over us.<br />
<br />
So, what is power? It is <a href="http://groupfitnessmbs.blogspot.com/">Group Fitness</a>.<br />
<br />
Group Fitness recognises that power is found in the State, and whites will only have power if they are (a) involved in politics or (b) preparing shadow organisations for when/if the State collapses or turns against them.<br />
<br />
That's it. All the rest is noise and distraction.<br />
<br />
The difference between Group Fitness and noisy faux power is recognising where power is, and what type of group is required to combat it. Group Fitness is intelligent and focused. It is a movement built upon community and upon articulated ideas. It grows like a cult, not like a rally.<br />
<br />
<b>Group Fitness sees white/Western people as an organic unit, which must have a sound mind, body and spirit, if it is to survive. It builds quietly, drawing people in like a cult, not like a rally.</b><br />
<br />
So how do we make it happen? We need to start small groups that have intelligent leadership, and well articulated ideas, and that build community around these ideas. From little things, big things grow.<br />
<br />
The future belongs to those who can organise white/Western people into a cohesive/organic unit that is intelligent and well resourced enough to compete in politics, and prepare for the worst if the State is turned against us.<br />
<br />
Power is found in being part of an intelligent and cohesive unit. It is not found in noisy rallies.<br />
<br />
So, find a group, or start a group, that has intelligent leadership. And build it slowly and quietly. And if we have enough groups like that, and we co-ordinate them together, then we might have some chance of surviving in an increasingly dangerous world. Otherwise, we will just be a laughing stock, and an evolutionary dodo bird.<br />
<br />
To compete in this world requires intelligence and organisation - not noise, bluster or posturing. So get involved in an intelligent group, or you are wasting your time making useless noise.<br />

IdeologyWhy did Trump win? Because he represented a <b>paradigm shift</b> away from the failing ideologies of globalisation/open-borders, and back towards a realistic <a href="http://groupfitnessmbs.blogspot.com/">group-oriented</a> identity politics i.e. sober protective nationalism. In a similar vein to Brexit.<br />
<br />
One key ideology that Trump defied was the <b>insane free-trade groupthink</b> that has crushed debate for decades, summed up beautifully in this Michael Moore video:<br />
<br />
<center>
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wxDRqeuLNag?rel=0" width="480"></iframe></center>
<br />
Anne Coulter also sums it up, it was all about "globalism vs. nationality":<br />
<br />

<br />
And tech billionaire Peter Thiel also hit the nail on the head, by saying that we've been living in these <a href="https://wentworthreport.com/2016/11/01/peter-thiel-donald-trump-gets-big-things-right-support-for-the-republican-candidate-for-president-is-about-backing-the-outsider-instead-of-another-insider/">fantasy bubbles</a>, that have trapped us in over-optimistic ideologies such as free-trade and endless <a href="http://www.amnation.com/vfr/archives/006854.html">unwinnable wars</a> in the Muslim world:<br />
<blockquote>
"We’re voting for Trump because we judge the leadership of our country to have failed ... <br />
<br />
<b>The trade bubble says everyone’s a winner. The war bubble says victory is just around the corner</b>, but these overoptimistic stories simply aren’t true and voters are tired of being lied to. …<br />
<br />
Whatever happens in this election, Trump represents isn’t crazy, and it’s not going away. He points towards a new Republican party beyond the dogma of Reaganism".</blockquote>
<br />
<center>
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dUUckfYtKoU?rel=0" width="480"></iframe></center>
<br />
And here's a reminder of how free-trade isn't working for America, leaving them mired with permanent trade deficits.<br />
<br />
<center>
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/chc-F1BOQwI?rel=0" width="480"></iframe></center>
<br />
Carefully managed trade with peaceful allies can be a good thing. But mindless and reckless free-trade with our enemies is complete insanity.<br />

THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. For this website, I'm going to assume that the pursuit of happiness is our goal as individuals. At least for most of us, most of the time. <a href="http://groupfitnessmbs.blogspot.com.au/2014/09/goals-value-theory-meta-ethics-etc.html">Read More...</a><br />

INDIVIDUALISM WITHOUT GROUP DIRECTION. In recent times the West has made great strides in the pursuit of individual happiness. However, in many other ways, the West is headed in a distinctly unhappy direction. <a href="http://groupfitnessmbs.blogspot.com.au/2014/07/introduction.html">Read More...</a></td></tr>

<br />
The purpose of the website is to address the lack of constructive and unifying narrative in the Western world, which is a one reason why we're slow to mount much resistance to our decline.<br />
<br />
The website is not a detailed prescription for the West. Rather, it's a broad unifying structure and foundation. In technical terms it's a structural, meta-ethical and relational narrative.<br />
<br />
That said, it's not a highbrow or intellectual narrative at all. It's actually just common sense.<br />
<br />
It's about setting some common goals, outlining a structure within which to pursue those goals, and facilitating smooth relations between the various subgroups of the West.<br />
<br />
In terms of goals, the website focuses on the human dimension to life i.e. the pursuit of happiness. That said, it's not anti-religion, or anti-tradition. It's not prescriptive down to that level.<br />
<br />
The structure is where group fitness comes in. The key concept is that "groups survive, individualism dies" and so our happiness depends on us falling into line with some group structure, and putting our talents to work in the interests of our group's survival.<br />
<br />
The relational aspect is just some ideas for facilitating smooth relations between the subgroups of the West. The purpose being to keep the West as big and united as possible, because we're going to need every friend and ally we can make, going forward in a hostile world.<br />
<br />
("United" does not mean forced coexistence or forced mixing, it just means goodwill and cooperation against common threats).<br />
<br />
For veterans of the alt-right/conservative scene, there's not a whole lot new here. It's just re-packaging some common sense basics. But even these basics are still muddled too often, meaning that we're spinning our wheels instead of going forward with a unifying narrative. We need to put these basics behind us, and get on with confronting the serious threats in front of us.<br />
<br />
If you see any typing errors, or other problems reading or viewing the website, let me know.<br />

Due to health problems, I ran out of steam before completing the website, and there are a few incomplete or sketchy sections at the end. But I may not have the energy to finish it off, so I'm publishing it "as is".<br />

There's now a Reddit forum dedicated to Alt-Right commentary, minus all the distracting news.<br />
<br />
Essentially, it's a low noise forum, which limits the news reporting to just big events, and thus leaves space for thoughtful alt-right commentary, which might otherwise get lost in the stream of negative news flowing by these days.<br />
<br />
I also have an embedded <a href="http://ideologee.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/storify-news-links.html">Storify</a> page which I update with news.<br />

It was the haunting images of the flood of refugees flowing into Europe, a literal invasion, which Merkel welcomed and encouraged with open arms. And the threat of Turkey joining the EU loomed ominously too.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
These sorts of images are burned into the brain. They are a symbol of the complete insanity of our current political class. Such pictures show that the Western world is in serious trouble, and headed for oblivion if we don't find new leaders, and new paradigms, and quickly.<br />
<br />
Congrats to the Brits for restoring some sanity. I don't know why Scotland and Northern Ireland voted to remain.<br />

Now it’s Australia’s turn.This video comes via <a href="http://ozconservative.blogspot.com.au/2016/06/australian-elections-who-to-vote-for.html">Oz Conservative</a>. It's another option for Australian voters at this weekend's election.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.votesustainable.org.au/">Sustainable Australia</a> wants to seriously cut back on immigration levels, but purely for reasons of sustainability i.e. environment, infrastructure, and quality of life. And they want to curb foreign ownership which is spiking housing affordability.<br />
<br />
So, they aren't an alt-right or identity-based party, but given the lack of choices in Australian politics, they might be worth voting for if you can't find anyone better.<br />

<br />
Yes, there are many more distinctions than these 5, but these are the important forces, as I see it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSUwpMQPogW7wfPVmhQi0ZTYZnTbmFZUGX7Xo79H1QSRg2HrbPjnXxcRylkvwPjWTqoboGoDZRrD0gIUebmUXcT5ckCLCFy0-GjXuunRkOv7m5-hbSjL99ZjyR-VaY6MvBczvu3qKKkJo/s1600/ala+stop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSUwpMQPogW7wfPVmhQi0ZTYZnTbmFZUGX7Xo79H1QSRg2HrbPjnXxcRylkvwPjWTqoboGoDZRrD0gIUebmUXcT5ckCLCFy0-GjXuunRkOv7m5-hbSjL99ZjyR-VaY6MvBczvu3qKKkJo/s200/ala+stop.jpg" width="160" /></a></div>
1. THE PESSIMISTS<br />
<br />
Here we have folks who are:<br />
<br />
- Pessimistic/skeptical about the "peaceful" nature of Islam and China.<br />
- Have reservations about mass immigration, free trade and foreign ownership.<br />
- Are more concerned about community, culture and social cohesion, than about individualism.<br />
- Long-term thinkers.<br />
- Mostly white folks.<br />
<br />
2. THE OPTIMISTS<br />
<br />
Here we have folks like current leader Malcolm Turnbull who recently professed:<br />
<br />
<i>"There has never been a more exciting time to be alive than today and there has never been a more exciting time to be an Australian".</i><br />
<br />
It's sunshine, rainbows and lollipops all the way with these folks.<br />
<br />
3. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT<br />
<br />
This mindset is more prevalent in the bureaucracy than in politics. It's the police, intelligence agencies, defence, and other departments. These are the folks trying to keep the peace, and just want everyone to get along. These folks are on the frontline of containing the chaos of diversity, and containing the <a href="http://ideologee.blogspot.com.au/2015/10/john-mcafee-china-is-at-war-with-us.html">attacks</a> from China (possibly even <a href="http://ideologee.blogspot.com/2015/09/waking-up-to-chinas-unrestricted-warfare.html">beyond</a> hacking). They're probably fighting a losing battle against a growing Muslim population, and an endless number of covert attacks from China.<br />
<br />
4. INCLUSIVE RADICALS<br />
<br />
These are the <a href="http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-06-01/david-morrison-wants-australians-to-stop-saying-'guys'/7465824">folks</a> who want radical diversity to flourish in every corner of life. There is no escape from these folks: every micro-aggression, every thought, and every speech, must be censored so that radicals everywhere are "welcomed" and "accepted". Best to back away slowly from these folks, they are quite mad.<br />
<br />
5. BROWN POWER<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAVd6zcJmKxxxA0DiO5qQgY5rG3mL8a0Ff8lrgFgeJ2m7nNR3QJjp62gTwCUacUsB9297XjRXyeWTkimx11-gi55q-u5z6k5LqQ3vFmfb4m-29eRf7DLNAol-ccY4Ms9gkJpwu3B9NtwU/s1600/fear-of-a-brown-planet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="142" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAVd6zcJmKxxxA0DiO5qQgY5rG3mL8a0Ff8lrgFgeJ2m7nNR3QJjp62gTwCUacUsB9297XjRXyeWTkimx11-gi55q-u5z6k5LqQ3vFmfb4m-29eRf7DLNAol-ccY4Ms9gkJpwu3B9NtwU/s200/fear-of-a-brown-planet.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
Here we have the growing immigrant anti-white identity politics. It's not represented by any political party yet, although there was one <a href="http://ideologee.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/asians-group-themselves-racially-for.html">all-Chinese</a> group in the last NSW election. These folks will mostly vote Labor or Green just to open the borders to more immigration. And can you imagine what immigration levels will be like once these folks gain power? Head for the hills.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
------------ Looking Ahead -----------</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So, looking ahead, which mindsets are likely to prevail? My guess is that groups 1 and 5 will grow, with identity politics solidifying further. Meanwhile, the oddball groups in the middle, 2 & 4, will wither and die under the chaos of diversity and the growing <a href="http://junkee.com/fairfax-and-sky-news-have-signed-a-deal-to-run-state-run-chinese-media-propaganda/79701">spectre</a> of China as it casts a <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/09/world/asia/south-china-sea-militarization.html?_r=0">terrifying</a> shadow further across the region. And the "Fire Department" will remain continuously overworked.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Which brings us to a possible future divide in Australian politics that will dwarf all other divisions.</div>
<br />
6. SINOPHILES V. SINOPHOBES<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4ZbyPy1Bcdg7leitOLBJEwurJxVI6-BWrmIENuejf3JD1pje0FRySBIvoeKn0H0tZa2r7UGpfa9BTxJ7aOZVhumfB1o17eY5TJI9ttYaR7MsM8rGCbRn5UjkfBBe1XSfsQnBlJXVwnoM/s1600/china+march.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4ZbyPy1Bcdg7leitOLBJEwurJxVI6-BWrmIENuejf3JD1pje0FRySBIvoeKn0H0tZa2r7UGpfa9BTxJ7aOZVhumfB1o17eY5TJI9ttYaR7MsM8rGCbRn5UjkfBBe1XSfsQnBlJXVwnoM/s200/china+march.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
As China's power grows in the region, and America hesitates to defend its allies here, and perhaps even turns isolationist (e.g. Trump), Australia faces the scary prospect of trying to resist the power of China, without the aid of America, relying only on allies in the region.<br />
<br />
In this regard, if Australians comes to their senses, the most important political distinction in the future will be between the Sinophiles and Sinophobes.<br />
<br />

Our current leader Malcolm Turbull is clearly a <a href="http://quadrant.org.au/opinion/qed/2016/05/pms-perplexing-pivot-china/">perplexing</a> Sinophile, seemingly even worse than Rudd was. And if (a) America abandons the Asian region and (b) more Australians follow Turnbull and kowtow to China, then <b>Australia may well be the first Western country to fall. </b><br />
<br />
Will enough Australians recognise the threat of China before it's too late? Who knows. But this distinction (Sinophiles v. Sinophobes) is probably the most important for Australia's future.<br />
<br />
So, who am I voting for? That's like asking: what don't I want for dinner? There's not much to choose from. Yes, the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/KirralieSmithAustliberty/videos/575911245922582/">Australian Liberty Alliance</a> stands against Muslim immigration, and that's great.<br />
<br />
But the biggest threat to Australia is not Muslims (unless they go nuclear terrorism). No, the biggest threats are (a) <a href="http://www.theindependentaustralian.com.au/node/10">Asian immigration</a> and (b) the <a href="http://crouchingtiger.net/film-series/">rise of China</a>.<br />
<br />
And the only people who stand against these threats are really on the fringe e.g. Pauline Hanson, One Nation Party, Australia First Party, Australian Protectionist Party, Australian Party For Freedom, etc.<br />

It's <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNOBUj3GHYfPURR_Fd2120Q">obvious</a> that these are subtle agents of Chinese propaganda, seeking to control what people think about critical issues (South China Sea disputes, Taiwan, Tibet, Uighurs etc) and paint an image of China as always peaceful and never seeking hegemony or conflict. <b>China is the gold medalist in propaganda. They want to control your thoughts, just like they control the Chinese people's.</b><br />
<blockquote>
<b><a href="http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/behind-confucius-classrooms-the-chinese-government-agency-teaching-nsw-school-students-20160525-gp3882.html">Behind Confucius Classrooms: the Chinese government agency teaching NSW school students</a>:</b><br />
<br />
NSW public schools are being paid at least $10,000 a year by a Chinese government body to offer its Chinese language and culture courses, and some schools make it compulsory to attend. <br />
<br />
Despite concerns over the appropriateness of outsourcing public school lesson time to a foreign government body, the state government expanded the program - known as Confucius Classrooms - to a further six schools in late 2015. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<b>These classes might be free to Treasury, but they are paid for by exposing children to a foreign government's propaganda machine. </b><br />
<br />
One Chinese-Australian parent, whose son is at a school where attendance at the Confucius Classrooms program is compulsory from kindergarten to year 2, said it was akin to "the infiltration of the Chinese Communist Party into the NSW public school system"...<br />
<br />
Independent China expert Professor Jocelyn Chey of the University of Sydney said: <b>"One might say that if a school program is 'just teaching language', it could not be political, but with Chinese everything is political."</b></blockquote>

I'm slowing down with health problems these days, so progress on my new website has stalled. I only need a few days with a clear head to finish it off, but alas, good days are hard to come by at the moment. <br />

My health has been declining for a long time but now my mind is slowing down too. So, after my new website is done, my productive days might be over and it might be time to hang up the keyboard. Such is life.<br />

It reminds me of a <a href="http://www.amnation.com/vfr/archives/017443.html">Lawrence Auster</a> article on Germany:<br />
<blockquote>
The ironies are sickening. When Hitler came to power in 1933, there were 600,000, mostly highly assimilated, Jews in Germany, one percent of the population, but the Nazis viewed this one percent Jewish element as such a threat to the German nation that it had to be dispossessed and destroyed.<br />
<br />
Now there are five million Muslims in Germany, six percent of the population of 81 million, the carriers of a way of life and a system of law totally incompatible with the West, and the German policy is to attack, not the Muslims, but a sole individual, Thilo Sarrazin, who warns that the Muslims cannot assimilate.</blockquote>

I think the new spectrum of warfare goes beyond what's mentioned in this article, but it's still good to see some journalists waking up to reality.<br />
<br />
Peter Pomerantsev, <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2015/12/war-2015-china-russia-isis/422085/">Brave New War: A new form of conflict emerged in 2015</a>:<br />
<blockquote>
From China in Asia to Russia in Europe and the Middle East, and ISIS just about everywhere, 2015 has seen the flourishing of conflicts that exist in a gray zone, one which is not quite open war but more than regular competition, which is attuned to globalization, which liberal democracies are ill-equipped to deal with, and which may well be the way power is exercised and conflict conducted in the foreseeable future.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<b>Described by scholars as “hybrid,” “full-spectrum,” “non-linear,” “next-generation,” or “ambiguous”—the variations in the description indicate the slipperiness of the subject—these conflicts mix psychological, media, economic, cyber, and military operations without requiring a declaration of war.</b><br />
<br />
In the case of Russia’s ongoing campaign in Ukraine... The point is not to occupy territory—Russia could easily annex rebel-held eastern Ukraine—but to destabilize Ukraine psychologically and advance a narrative of the country as a “failed state,” thus destroying the will and support inside Ukraine and internationally for reforms that would make Kiev more independent from Moscow...<br />
<br />
China’s doctrine of the Three Warfares pushes these non-physical aspects even further, using “legal,” “psychological,” and “media” warfare to ... “undermine international institutions, change borders, and subvert global media, all without firing a shot. The Western, and especially American, concept of war emphasises the kinetic and the tangible—infrastructure, arms, and personnel—whereas <b>China is asking fundamental questions: ‘What is war?’ And, in today’s world: ‘Is winning without fighting possible?’”</b><br />
<br />
An immediate aim of the Three Warfares is to spread China’s dominion over the South China Sea...<br />
<br />
<b>In many ways, gray-zone conflicts are the dark flip side of globalization, where transnational media, economic integration, and the free movement of people create not a “global village,” but an environment in which we can all mess with each other in more insidious ways. </b>Globalization also means, however, that states such as China or Russia are unlikely to declare full-on war. Why risk an open conflict they would probably lose when the aim is to preserve all the advantages of “positive” globalization—the global markets and foreign investments—while simultaneously harnessing these dynamics to subvert others.<br />
<br />
All this leads to a situation where powers can be fighting each other with one hand and shaking hands with the other ...<br />
<br />
Many Chinese and Russians would argue that Western countries are likewise waging gray-zone conflicts against them. After the Chinese stock market collapsed this year, Lin Zuoming, a powerful figure within one of China’s largest state-owned enterprises, insisted the crash was “without any doubt … an economic war” led by the United States to undermine the Communist Party’s rule...<br />
<br />
<b>But liberal democracies in the West can also find it very difficult to act in the gray zone...</b><br />
<br />
While it is relatively easy for authoritarian regimes to fuse the efforts of military, media, and business entities, in democracies the interests of these groups are often diametrically opposed. For example: When the U.K. government signed a deal this fall allowing China to invest in a new British nuclear reactor, the money men at the Treasury were delighted; the moral men in the media appalled by the United Kingdom selling out on human rights; and the military men worried by Chinese penetration of British energy and telecommunications infrastructure.<br />
<br />
Of course, Western powers can unite money, media, and the military to devastating and diabolical effect when a war is declared ... but they are more at a loss when responding to not-quite-wars that are undeclared...<br />
<br />
It’s a brave new war without beginning or end, where the borders of peace and war, serviceman and civilian have become utterly blurred—and where you and I are both a target and a weapon.</blockquote>
The full spectrum of new warfare probably goes way beyond what's mentioned here, to include any type of covert attack, including drug warfare, all manner of "accidents" done covertly, and possibly even spooky technologies like weather warfare, seismic warfare, biological warfare, etc. A brave new world, indeed.<br />

As Sam Harris says about Mohammed: <b>"He was a warlord who did many of the things that you see members of ISIS doing".</b><br />
<br />
The Koran contains <a href="http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2008/12/beautiful-pattern-of-conduct.html">90 verses</a> which implore Muslims to imitate the prophet Mohammed: "a beautiful pattern of conduct".<br />
<br />
Devout Muslims, in an ardent search for the right way to follow their religion, inevitably turn to the <a href="https://archive.org/stream/TheLifeOfMohammedGuillaume/The_Life_Of_Mohammed_Guillaume#page/n3/mode/1up">biography</a> of Mohammed, which reads like a war documentary.<br />
<br />
Indeed, in early Islam, the biography of Mohammed was known as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prophetic_biography">Maghazi</a> (literally, stories of military expeditions).<br />
<br />
And Mohammed <a href="http://www.skepticink.com/tippling/2015/01/12/islam-and-violent-extremism/">nicknamed</a> his swords "Pluck Out" and "Death", and himself had a nickname from early Muslim historian Tabari of "The Obliterator".<br />
<br />
<b>Religion is the imitation of archetypes, and Mohammed was nothing like Jesus or the Buddha. He was a role model in terrorism.</b><br />
<br />
The kindest thing you can say about Islam is that it is open to interpretation, but the terrorists have a very <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfKLV6rmLxE">convincing</a> case that they are the true Muslims.<br />
<br />

<b>"I believe that China is a disaster. I believe that China will bring Australia down.</b><br />

"Australia is a member of the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement), so it is a friend, at the same time that they supply China to become an enemy. So (they've) got to pick a side.<br />

"I think that <b>Australia will only believe China is destroying Australia when they build an artificial island on the Great Barrier Reef</b> that they can see from the shore . So it is a matter of a myopic approach to world geopolitics and economics."</blockquote>

<br />
The Master said, <b>"The requisites of government are that there be sufficient food, sufficient military equipment, and the confidence of the people in their ruler."</b><br />
<br />
Zigong said, "If one had to dispense with one of those three, which should be given up first?" "The military equipment, " said the Master.<br />
<br />
Zigong again asked, "If one had to dispense with one of the two remaining, which should be given up?"<br />
<br />
The Master answered, <b>"Give up the food. From of old, death has always been the lot of men; but if the people have no faith in their rulers, they cannot stand."</b></blockquote>So, Confucius is saying that a nation can recover from material loss, including deaths. But it's a far more serious matter when the people lose confidence in their leaders. So, if some people have to die to maintain confidence in your rulers, then so be it, according to Confucius.<br />
<br />
The Tianjin explosion followed shortly after China's stock market crash, where a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPMmoJrkxeg">lot of people</a> lost a <a href="http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-08-27/chinese-man-jumps-17th-floor-first-stock-market-casualty">lot of money</a>. Confidence in Xi Jinping's leadership was shattered, given that the Communist Party had encouraged people to invest in stocks, rather than property.<br />

All of a sudden, China's leaders went from geniuses to fools. Xi Jinping would not have been on these people's Christmas card list.<br />
<br />
So, what would China's leaders do in this situation? It would not be surprising if they did something to (a) distract people's attention away from the stock crisis and (b) censor talk that dramatised the crisis and questioned the leadership of Xi Jinping and (c) found some minions to blame.<br />
<br />
The Tianjin explosion was a perfect distraction, and the government did censor talk about the crisis:<br />
<blockquote><a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/07/05/us-china-markets-idUSKCN0PF05320150705">China arrests man for suicide 'rumors' amid stock market rout</a><br />
<br />
<b>Chinese authorities have arrested a man who allegedly spread rumors about people in Beijing jumping off buildings in response to a stock market crash</b>, state television reported on Sunday.<br />
<br />
The 29-year-old man, surnamed Tian, was detained for "disorderly behavior", China Central Television said.<br />
<br />
He alleged wrote on social media on July 3 that "there are people, because of the stock market crash, who have jumped off buildings in Beijing's Financial Street," a commercial development in downtown that houses many financial institutions.</blockquote>All the boxes were ticked: distraction, censorship, and they <a href="https://news.vice.com/article/china-is-trying-to-blame-its-stock-market-crash-on-journalists-and-businessmen">scapegoated</a> journalists and professionals for "spreading rumours" that accelerated the collapse.<br />
<br />
Restoring confidence in Xi was especially important because he would soon be sticking his head out of a moving car, while driving down a military parade.<br />
<br />
And all this comes on the back of China's slowing economy:<br />
<br />
<center><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><div dir="ltr" lang="en">Legitimacy built on economy instead of elections makes economic slowdown an existential crisis <a href="http://t.co/PPiJvVxX56">http://t.co/PPiJvVxX56</a> <a href="http://t.co/FxxPbIf5iF">pic.twitter.com/FxxPbIf5iF</a></div>— Kenneth Roth (@KenRoth) <a href="https://twitter.com/KenRoth/status/635621196395085825">August 24, 2015</a></blockquote><script async="" charset="utf-8" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></center><br />
So, the Tianjin explosion could simply have been one giant distraction, to get past the stock market crash, while avoiding a crisis of confidence in Xi's leadership.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">----------------------------</div><br />
The other dimension to the market crash is how China responded <i>externally</i>. I suspect that <b>China blames its stock market crash on America, specifically a <a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/moneybeat/2015/05/07/morgan-stanley-downgrades-china-for-first-time-in-over-7-years/">Morgan Stanley downgrade</a>, which China interpreted as an act of <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/jul/23/inside-china-official-china-stock-crash-is-us-econ/?page=all">economic warfare</a>.</b><br />
<br />
Subsequently, China retaliated by devaluing their currency and <a href="http://globaleconomicwarfare.com/2015/10/the-chinese-are-dumping-our-treasury-bonds/">dumping US loans</a>. There is also speculation that China began covertly attacking America, and allies, with all manner of "accidents", as per their doctrine of unrestricted warfare. But that's a big topic, and will have to wait for another time.<br />
