WWAW Blackrock using weather weapons to target areas they want to buy up?

You know what I mean, the people I’m describing. We live in an inverted pyramid, everything is backwards.

“Financial freedom” by investing is not good, there’s freedom in toil. Read CS Lewis on what a true Christian society would look like for what I mean, it’s not what people think.

Shit like derivatives trading - it’s evil bullshit.

Are you referring to his book "The Abolition of Man"? I still have to read that one.

Read as much CS Lewis as possible imo. /edit it’s clear what he means by “leftist” in the context of the time, and not modern leftism which is the inverse pyramid I mentioned.

From Mere Christianity:

“It tells us there will be no passengers or parasites: if a man does not work, he does not eat. Everyone's work is to produce something good: there will be no manufacture of silly luxuries and then of sillier advertisements to persuade us to borrow them. There will be no swank or side, no putting on airs. To that extent, a Christian society would be what we now call Leftist. On the other hand, it is always insisting on obedience-- obedience (and outward marks of respect) from all of us to properly appointed magistrates, from children to parents, and (I am afraid this is going to be very unpopular) from wives to husbands.”

From his essay “willing slaves of the welfare state”

I believe a man is happier, and happy in a richer way, if he has 'the freeborn mind'. But I doubt whether he can have this without economic independence, which the new society is abolishing. For economic independence allows an education not controlled by Government; and in adult life it is the man who needs, and asks, nothing of Government who can criticise its acts and snap his fingers at its ideology. Read Montaigne; that's the voice of a man with his legs under his own table, eating the mutton and turnips raised on his own land. Who will talk like that when the State is everyone's schoolmaster and employer? Admittedly, when man was untamed, such liberty belonged only to the few. I know. Hence the horrible suspicion that our only choice is between societies with few freemen and societies with none.

I'm with you on these predatory types of investing like credit default swaps or even options trading. That's specifically why I choose index funds; straightforward investment for slow gradual growth rather than rooting for someone else's misery. It isn't perfectly creative because an index fund investment necessarily invests in non-creative companies, but it is geared towards some measure of societal growth as opposed to my gain at everyone else's loss.

I just think it’s better to make something with your own hands. If you’re making a lot of money and you’re not actually doing anything for it, I think it’s poisonous to the soul.

I realise the hypocrisy since I work in IT, but I left my old job because it was for a financial services clearing house and I work somewhere now where the service is a real tangible thing being purchased.

I used to support derivatives trading back in 2010 / 2011 and people have no clue what the scale of that shit looks like. Billions and billions of derivatives are traded every single day between banks and funds and they’re all based on notional/nominal values, which means they’re trading on shit that isn’t even “owned.”

It’s just hedging on top of hedging on top of hedging. If you hear about a bank that lost $1B on a bad trade, it doesn’t really mean anything because they’re up on 10 separate $500M trades with different funds under the same parent counterparty they lost to.

How any regulatory agency can even pretend to keep up with it is hilarious to me. Yeah, a guy making $150,000 at a government / quasi government job is going to catch Blackrock dead to rights on some shady shit when their trade with HSBC went through Ireland to HSBC’s fund in the Cayman Islands.

I don’t even remember the numbers of the size of the market, it’s 100s of trillions or quadrillions , literally. It’s so fucking ridiculous it defies all belief.

It’s a profound evil on the world.

To be clear, the goal isn't no work. I think it's poisonous to invest as a replacement for work or as a replacement for your kids to work, but if you aren't investing to retire early or at least have the freedom to not have to work in the future, then you're out of your mind or not making enough to have a little leftover.

And if you're going to invest in the future, you won't do any better than index funds.

I do invest into something for retirement and it’s on course to let me live a simple life not reliant on SS. I’m talking just in general I don’t like the shape of our society and this jewy mental financial instrument way of doing everything. I’d rather have a simple life free from government and stupid consumerism bullshit.

ZOG doesn't need weather machines. All they need to do make a few phone calls about certain elected officials sexual preferences or place a donation.

Literally. It was easily trillions back then. I don’t even know how 99.9% of it works. All I know is if you’re trading retail, you’re only making money because they haven’t killed whatever you own

Both are true. They can manipulate weather and use it as a weapon.
