Ruling-class inbreeding is for real
(this is an interesting lineage to trace - from Tor to Amazon's CIA datacenter to the US Navy to the South American slave trade)
(this family probably merits a full episode of Doxing the Ruling Class if I ever have time for it)
Peak Liberalism: "Lets end slavery in USA by exporting all the slaves to Brazil's up-and-coming slave economy" fampeople.com/cat-matthew-fo…
this guy was also the registrar for ships flagged to the Papal States. what gets you picked for that job?
(kinda like "what gets you picked to run the CIA's datacenter at Amazon")
Vass got his start at DynCorp (of course) and had a long run of building naval drones. washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content…
Tor + DynCorp + Naval drones = my gut tells me this guy is like 2 hops from Marc Collins Rector tops.
Bookmarking - Claude Brancart submarine drone research - 80's + 90's ieeeoes.org/history/080523…
wtec.org/loyola/subsea/…
Vass' wife of course is EFF / Tor director Shari Steele web.archive.org/web/2010010504…
funny how she's been with the EFF since at least 1993 and has dozens of newspaper hits from that decade, but no Wikipedia page.
EFF and the Kosovo campaign 🤔newspapers.com/image/26854954…
1990s EFF vs Scientology deserves a full rundown (heh) at some point too newspapers.com/image/26670504…
EFF facilitated Aerosmith's 1994 "cyber tour" of dialup chatrooms newspapers.com/image/24894850…
Meanwhile ... jstor.org/stable/4245467…
Tor, of course, began as a Naval Intel project and gosh it's like the great-grandfather of the husband of the woman who run the Tor project
basically invented naval intelligence - scouted imperial incursions into mexico and brazil, developed an international network of
information sharing between navies (weather reports!) and kept track of the Pope's ships for him.
great grandson vass has a long career building autonomous submarines for various maclean-based consulting outfits.
and his wife is a key figure in the EFF for 20+ years without even a wikipedia page about her.
gonna let this one percolate for a few weeks.
(one more: would love to find a good history of Maury's Mexican colony for ex-Confederate war criminals en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Virgi…)

Anyone else born in the late 1970s / early 1980s feel like they're part of a weird generation that slipped thru the cracks?
And I don't even really want to unpack what I mean by "generation" or "slipped thru the cracks" - I feel like alot of people my age share this feeling for different reasons.
For me I think it has something to do w/ the development of the Internet and how it changed economic + social conditions. Like I'm old enough to remember a pre-internet world, but not to have been an adult in that world.

So 1970s astrologers founding 1980s software consultancies seems to be a thing. I've found 3 of these companies now.
Para Research, which published Marcia Moore's ketamine book, became an IBM vendor in the 80s. ASI computers was created by the tech director
of ITT and created software and ran a hedge fund based on astrological predictions (found them looking into Ms. Magazine's early investors)

The @WomensMarch was Always Anti-Semitic frontpagemag.com/point/272212/w…
“According to several sources, it was there—in the first hours of the first meeting for what would become the Women’s March—that something happened that was so shameful to many of those who witnessed it, they chose to bury it like a family secret.”
“It was there that, as the women were opening up about their backgrounds and creating a resistance movement to Trump, Perez and Mallory allegedly asserted that Jewish people bore a special collective responsibility as exploiters of black and brown people—“

Until recently, the names of those sold into slavery by Nathan Bedford Forrest were unknown. A @RhodesCollege professor & his students sought to change that, tracking down their names & later reading them aloud at a truth & reconciliation service. bit.ly/2PO8adD

Seventy-four names of people sold into slavery by Nathan Bedford Forrest were read aloud. As their names were read, the more than 600 people attending the service at Calvary Episcopal Church in Memphis stood. bit.ly/2PO8adD

It's #ColumbusDay and my oldest came to class with me, so I couldn't give my traditional #columbuswasamurderer lesson to my students. I was disappointed. Thankfully, Twitter is here, so here we go.
First, I do know that Columbus is in many ways a product of his time, specifically the economic and political crisis in Genoa post-1453 and the fall of Constantinople--we find Genoese cartographers, navigators and sailors all over the place in the aftermath, so...
Columbus himself is an experienced sailor--he travels the Eastern Mediterranean, up to Ireland/UK/maybe Iceland, down the coast of Africa to Guinea... he's not just some random dude with a plan, he's a random well-traveled sailor with a plan.

Interesting read !
BRENNAN CORRUPTION :
John Brennan was the American progenitor of political espionage aimed at defeating Donald Trump. One side did colluded with foreign powers to tip the election — Hillary’s....
Seeking to retain his position as #CIA director under #HillaryClinton , #Brennan teamed up with British spies and Estonian spies to cripple @realDonaldTrump candidacy. He used their phony intelligence as a pretext for a multi-agency investigation into #Trumpn, which led the #FBI
to probe a computer server connected to #TrumpTower and gave cover to #SusanRice among other Hillary supporters, to spy on Trump and his people.

#JohnBrennan ‘s #CIA operated like a branch office of the #Hillary campaign, leaking out mentions of this bogus investigation to the

“What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?” Frederick Douglass July 5, 1852 Mr. President, Friends and Fellow Citizens:

He who could address this audience without a quailing sensation, has stronger nerves than I have. I do not remember ever to have appeared as 1/
a speaker before any assembly more shrinkingly, nor with greater distrust of my ability, than I do this day. A feeling has crept over me, quite unfavorable to the exercise of my limited powers of speech. 2/
The task before me is one which requires much previous thought and study for its proper performance. I know that apologies of this sort are generally considered flat and unmeaning. I trust, however, that mine will not be so considered. 3/

1) Today Whistle-blower #ChristopherWylie appeared in front of #British #MPs.

Did he inadvertently connect the dots on the very strange and developing relationship between the #democrat party and #MuslimBrotherhood?

#QanonPosts #Q #QAnon @POTUS #TheStorm #MAGA #DrainTheSwamp
2) Wylie was testifying about his work for #CambridgeAnalytica and while testifying, he revealed his predecessor was found dead in a hotel room... in #Kenya. Why does that matter?

#Africa #QAnon @POTUS #DrainTheDeepState #CORRUPTION #MurdochMysteries

3) Recall recent #Q post regarding #Kenya.

His predecessor Dan Mursean died mysteriously in Kenyan hotel room in 2012 working for President Uhuru Kenyatta's re-election campaign.

Look at #QanonPosts below.

MB = #MuslimBrotherhood.

Something's swirling.
