myWORD by Jonathan…
a topical word-salve for social rashness

WWCD
What Would Charlie Do?

Words are not violent, violence is violent

… and assassinating a genteel centrist debate society MC stirs civil wars. History shows that happens where only extremes permitted. I never subscribed, or even watched a whole Kirk lecture, but felt instant kinship for his enbrace of open debate & scholarship. Universities are hedge-fund sponsored Indoctrination Camps. Why are Schools different from rest of Free Speech America? How do they have budgets for Sensitivity fienting couches, but not Security for Speakers? Because, Academia is more Narrative Management than Learning, lesser Knowing, & never Wisdom.

As a pivot Kirk's prophetically named Turning Point a new dawn for generations of shunned young men every teacher told to Shut Up -or- Take This Pill. His death shows young men Negotiations Are Over. Talking Done. I found Debate late in schooling, but enjoyed taking opposite views as flex, long after my NRA-sponsored Boy Scout sniper patch… you sure you want to stop talking?

Modern Liberalism aka Gynocracy is done, unfit for purpose. Crones, matrons, mothers, used to hold family history applying social wisdom with wide resource networks, but feminist PMC cat-ladies made women into work-caged Dodo bird curiosities… Darwin Award for leading-role as species’ dead-enders.

Words are not violence, murder is

Nothing about Kirk's demise makes sense, from etheral bullet to murky void of family & origins: Our reaction was always the story. We are all Charlie…
His death starts unstoppable planetary shifts as sure as our wandering magnetic North. Another cycle of new Men begins, who will decide things differently out the other end of all this. The time of women recedes as men rise facing our many & growing real dangers.
It's what men do.

myWORD by Jonathan…
a topical word-salve for social rashness

Some Of All Fierce
There will be regime change in Persia, followed by Levant.
Nothing we do stops this, but our participation required

For a century now Zion has been for zealots, not keeping Jews safe. The second largest jewish population is in Iran, for generations as well-known refuge… surely there is more magic to be made here.
Israel is a proxy religious ethnostate and wretched staked-goat sacrifice for a global banking cartel keen to drive tanks across every generation. Israel acts coy with atomics they forbid others, playing veiled racist cry-bully Samson games threatening All civilization with venal criminal nuclear extortions and must be de-fanged. The Iranian middle class is ambitious & educated & will turn West as Trump presents better options. A restoration of sorts appears possible that sees America seeking self-contained balance to the region.

Trump plays D&D at Casino Royale tables, rolling-for-initiative, betting on America and the world. Sometimes the game looks like Poker, Blackjack, Uno, others Dominoes & Jenga Towers, Solitaire… a game-of-games, with changing rules across spectrum of interests, goals, and systems.
A lot of what we see is Godfather-style loyalty tests flushing out spies, fifth-column threats, and other political camps at-odds with recent agenda approved & elected by America. Working with China & talking with Russia is not selling-out, but establishing a working trust to remove international networks of criminals toying with nations & peoples, specifically designed to cripple civilization with wars, rumors of wars, and horrible corruptions spanning four centuries & must come to an end.

Trump is swinging a vorpal Sword Dance at the imperial financial chains enslaving America, and world, with crippling fiat money bondage and industrial strength mindfuckery. He and allies dismantle the liberal economic machinery restoring American trade & national sovereignity with respective for civilizations.
The “Slava Raytheon” cries of Forever Wars require Rothschilds and City of London banking. I will predict armies marching on the City of London for severe forensic accounting protocols, probably Irish, Scottish and English diaspora. Else, atomic Russian aqua-bots will drown their basement treaties,mutual-coercion-pacts, and secret deals… soaking centuries of evil ledgers built on slavery & lies in mildew & radioactive saltwater.

myWORD by Jonathan… a topical word-salve reducing social rashness
America needs Emergency Renewal. This was our choice last election.
We’ve been sold Progress out of Olde World Savage Imperialism, but was really face-painted Modern Fascism - cosplaying democracy: Congress rarely votes the popular polls to align with furtive power.
Call for a Moralization Movement countering decades of de-moralization campaigns. Demand New Leadership unable to argue killing These religions OK, but not Those. Confidence build by citing examples of success along with the wrongs done Then, connecting to Now - for buy-in. Weaning off Drug Wars includes grappling with infested intelligence / criminal / banking networks.
There Is No Substitute: for investing in families and taking care of populations. Stop promoting exotic behaviors and psychic edge-conditions as normal, while imposing savage austerity on families.
America draws on intrinsic strengths when allowed. Resourceful problem-solving and can-do ‘tude just a few arrows in our quiver that most of world lacks. Finance must be made available for investing in small & medium sized business. Tariffs won’t fund re-tooling American minds + hands, or industry, nor research. Some of us are old enough to remember Peace Dividend. It was why I finally accepted a job as cybersecurity contractor watching 9-11 unfold. 3/5/25
