@MemeticCowboy @RedfearnMike @XperimentalUnit @Atotsm2 @BurkhartRj @MarekArts @SIN_AI_1 @grok @nema_cio I think level 1 for any human being is to re-engage in the learning that started at birth, and quite often got stopped at school by others travelling faster according to "school rules", a "one size fits all, prisoners dilemma system" clearly under delivering across society. 🧵👇
@MemeticCowboy @RedfearnMike @XperimentalUnit @Atotsm2 @BurkhartRj @MarekArts @SIN_AI_1 @grok @nema_cio Level 1 is personal development, willing to re-engage in continuous improvement, but mindful it is in a societal setting.
We can definitely decide on our own passions, but understand that "value is in the eye of the beholder".
Can we then grow the value of a passion?

🧵 Thread: To our non-Iranian friends and supporters. Why Iran’s Revolutionary Movement Today is Exceptional, Unrepeatable, Deserving of Maximum Support, and Bound to Win?
(Please Read 👇)
(Please Read 👇)
1. The current events in Iran represent a transition from "civil protest" to a "Revolutionary Reclamation." To understand this, we must briefly analyze the regime's core doctrine: "If you cannot physically eliminate dissent, you must hijack its intellectual software."
2. This strategy of "Narrative Capture" was applied to everything. They couldn't ban satellite technology, so they infiltrated its content. They couldn't block the internet, so they deployed tens of thousands of state-linked "influencers" to dominate the discourse.

The Role of Attorney Marc R. Lakin (P41147) in a Constitutional Crisis rockenhaus.com/the-role-of-at…
Marc Lakin’s lies and failures left Conrad Rockenhaus unrepresented in the FCI Milan Detention Facility.
This has escalated to a situation where Conrad is now painfully seizing to death, from an untreated head injury, that was inflicted during the violent and illegal raid on my home on September 4, 2025.
What we see playing out domestically with voting, immigration, ICE, the UN, Tariffs, etc is all a continuation of the WORLD REVOLUTION that Winston Churchill quoted from Nesta Webster's 1921 book.
Nesta Webster (Feminist & French Revolution scholar) knew what was coming...

She knew what was coming. She knew their revolution was not going to stop. She knew and she warned us.
If you pay really close attention, is it scary how many recent news events "rhyme" with historical revolutionary periods.
In the future, when people look back, it will be PAINFULLY obvious we are currently living through a revolution.

Endgame: From American Myth to Digital Prison Tyranny
American life isn’t built for freedom; it’s rigged to forge obedience. From the pledge to the anthem, from the flag to the endless chants of “liberty,” these are psy-ops rituals, drilling submission into your skull from birth and turning dissent into taboo.
This isn’t just analysis; it’s an autopsy. If you feel a knot in your stomach reading this, that’s your programming kicking in, the code activating, your installed defenses firing up.

(2/9) Civil Religion & Constitutional Idolatry
The Constitution is not a pact; it’s a state-sanctioned idol. “American exceptionalism,” “founders’ wisdom,” “rule of law”, these echo like cult chants from classroom desks to talk radio.
Madison spilled it in Federalist No. 10: the real game was corralling “factions”, that is, you, so elites could lock down power. Challenge the parchment, and you’re branded an apostate.
This isn’t patriotism; it’s compliance on autopilot. The Constitution is the American Bible, a prop to keep you kneeling before power, as empty as a wrestler’s trash talk.

(3/9) Manufactured Consent: The Two-Party Illusion
You don’t pick the system; the system picks you. Consent is manufactured: textbooks peddle it, networks amplify it, and even “rebel” outlets hawk obedience wrapped in freedom’s bow.
Every “debate” is staged, red vs. blue, scripted rivals in the regime’s ring. Try voting third party or boycotting, and you’re scolded for “throwing away your vote.”
It’s like betting on the Washington Generals to beat the Globetrotters: the outcome is fixed, and you’re the mark.
Both parties bow to foreign lobbies, funneling billions to Israel, even after the USS Liberty or Pollard scandals, with Trump’s pardon sealing the deal. Treason is normalized, while critics are crushed.
Elections? Pure theater, dissent erased, fans cheering for their rigged corner.

I received a message from an Alberta ED colleague that stopped me cold. He treated a very elderly pt - a retired Charge Nurse who began her career as WWII ended. She waited 8 hours in the WR for care. Her assessment of our current reality is devastating....

She told the doc she has never seen it this bad. Not even before we had a formal healthcare system. But her most damning observation wasn't about the wait time or the lack of staff. It was about safety.

She said: "People feel scared." The ED is supposed to be the sanctuary… the place where fear subsides because you know you will be cared for. Instead, she watched Albertans sitting in terror.

It is the end of the first full week of 2026, and as has been my practice every year for the last 33 years, I have updated the data on my webpage, reflecting the 2025 financial filings of publicly traded firms and updated market information. bit.ly/3YtTCVx
My data universe includes 48,516 publicly traded companies, listed across global markets, and my datasets include global numbers as well as for sub-groups. bit.ly/3YtTCVx
I report on the industry averages on a range of variables (about 200 in all), reflecting data that I use in corporate financial, valuation and investing analysis, striving for consistency and transparency. bit.ly/3YtTCVx
1/ A compelling piece by Matt Bivens, MD published by @mtaibbi in Racket reveals how Purdue Pharma ran literal marketing sessions about using "empowerment" to sell OxyContin to women.
Their internal notes said to "let women educate women in their natural settings"—Tupperware parties, garden groups, e-cards. They weren't subtle about it.

2/ The strategy was straightforward: train women to see demanding opioids as self-advocacy, make their doctors' hesitation look like dismissiveness, rebrand drug dependence as taking charge of your health. And it worked spectacularly well for them.
3/ Here's what's haunting me about all this: the same playbook that contributed to 806,000 opioid deaths is being deployed with psychiatric drugs.
The harm looks different—we're not seeing overdose deaths in the same way—but suicide rates climbed 36% between 2000 and 2023, the same decades antidepressant use increased nearly 50%.
Those two realities can't be separated from one another. Over 1 in 10 Americans—that's roughly 30 million people—are currently on antidepressants.

GOOD NEWS FRIDAY THREAD:
1) US economy edges toward massive liftoff with Atlanta Fed saying 4th Q growth was 5.4% (incredible: "they" said not possible). Trade deficit collapse (exports 9% higher, imports 6% lower.) AMERICAN jobs are surging, but not GUBMENT jobs.

2) The effort to derail J.D. Vance's almost inevitable nomination failed. Apparently the RDS people thought they could take him out early, but NYET! Vance came back, now headed the announcement for the Minny fraud special AG.
3) The Manure-o Maduro raid must be viewed in context of Iran nuke demolition: both pulled off perfectly, in pretty much total secrecy. No US deaths. Russkie-ChiCom air defenses shredded like tissue paper. Major setbacks everywhere for US enemies.
