We typically use the Peace Prize as a yardstick for merit. But Wittgenstein's ruler tells us that the laureates ca be used to measure the award. Under Jagland's leadership, the committee awarded the prize to Barack Obama in 2009. President Obama later expanded the drone war and authorized extrajudicial killings of Americans, such as Anwar al-Awlaki. A short piece on Wittgenstein's ruler and the Peace Prize.

🇸🇪🌩️🤔 Ekonomidags avsnitt 80 ute nu! Vi lyssnar på när Bannon intervjuar Epstein (ja, den Epstein). Enligt Epstein begriper sig ingen på det globala finanssystemet. Våra beslutsfattare misslyckas även med att förstå hur pengar skapas. Ja, man undrar - vad skulle Baudrillard ha sagt om våra pengar? Lyssna där ni brukar, förslagsvis på Fountain. #podcasts #sverige

Om du ifrågasätter digitala pengar som kan ha utgångsdatum, kan devalveras på sekunder, begränsas till godkända varor och stängas av med ett knapptryck: då står du på Putins och Xi Jinpings sida! Eller kanske inte? Idag skriver jag om falska dikotomier i Epoch Times.

Håller du inte med är du rasist

”Antingen är du med oss, eller så är du med terroristerna”, sade president George W. Bush.

Whenever economists, politicians, or bureaucrats claim market dynamics are causing the declining use of cash, remind them that what's happening is in accordance with a plan outlined by an IMF economist back in 2017 (see The Boiling Frog for this plan). View article → Economists have actually posited that a design criteria for a well-designed Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) is to facilitate the phasing out of cash: They say "the digital euro will complement cash", but have designed it to make abolishing cash easier. Funny that!

Do you remember the Easter parade in New York City in 1929? Cigarettes were presented as symbols of liberation and equality. Women were paid to march in the parade while smoking "torches of freedom". Cigarette sales soared soon after. More info here ->

Using AI and brain scanning, researchers found that their model could predict how the human brain responded to different sentences. They hope to use "well-formed linguistic input" to cure depression. But an algorithm that can formulate a cure, couldn't it - just as easily - formulate a poison?

"Let's be clear: anyone who opposes the digital euro is opposing the euro and the European Union." Yes, the Chair of the European Parliament's Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs just said this falsehood. This move was predicted almost four years ago:, by Adam Townsend: "You're against Americans having to use only digital money with an expiration date, that can be deflated instantaneously by central banks, can be restricted to buying only approved items and can be revoked with the press of a button? You must be pro Putin" #cbdc #eu #digitaleuro

The central-planning enthusiastic bank bureaucrats have long worked against crypto via numerous harsh and highly anti-competitive regulations. Now, it seems they have to pivot course following stablecoin initiatives in the US, Japan, and other nations. "Central bankers ought to be more humble," I wrote two years ago. Not long ago, experts claimed the internet would have the same modest economic impact as the fax machine. Then they declared Bitcoin and crypto currencies as worthless... But did you know they even tried to ban the number zero back in the day? #sweden #riksbank #bis #crypto

The EU's von der Leyen appears to be setting up her own CIA. This appetite for control and surveillance becomes largely understandable when you realise that fiat leaders such as the UK's Keir Starmer, France's Macron and Germany's Merz are just about as popular as The Black Plague. The last time I calculated the net approval rate (net balance) of Starmer he was actually a smidgeon less popular than the Black Plague...

Have you noticed how new laws eroding privacy always follow a tired script? Politicians invoke the "four horsemen of the infocalypse" to scare us into accepting surveillance "for the children" or "for security". The reality is, neither our kids nor the public get any safer, just less free. Full piece! ↘️ View article →
