Oh, So You're Romantics!

Well, that's a turn up for the books!

So you're all romantics, are you?

But you all had sisters though, right...

No?

Aramis is the most romantic of the famed Musketeers, and his somewhat tragic life is set on its course by his arrogance with women and his lack of hesitancy to court them - despite that he is a Jesuit priest (albeit this aspect of his character was to fit in with the reputation that Jesuits had in France at the time).

Frank Finlay plays Van Helsing.
He was 'Porthos' in the 1973 'Three Musketeers.'

Modern money-focused commercial-industrials picked this one of the Three Musketeers to brand their woodsy, spicy floral (bitter herbs, cumin, and sandalwood) men's cologne, because this is what they figured the market would go for. And it did and it still does.

Personally, I find that an insider's view of what Bernard Chant was actually going for should more heavily stress Myrrh and Pelargonium, and Artemesia and Bergamot - and so you can probably concoct your own version of the thing yourself, rather than have to pretend to like the synthetic, lab-made item.

Nevertheless, the official brand one is very arrogant, very defiant, quite loud and aggressive - it is not very subtle at all.

...Which leads me to what I really wanted to discuss.

For reasons that need not be too deeply gone into here, I have had 'some' access to the big data that was coming in from the very first moment CIA established the internet via the Nixdorf P-O-S systems around the world. We could see what you were spending your money on.

And I still have at least enough access to be able to know what the strategic thinking is today.

And yet I must tell you, that my own personal impression is that things always take two to tango and I am becoming less and less convinced that people are merely victims of clever manipulations.

Faye Dunaway
was in that 1973
version of this classic
story by Alexandre
Dumas.
She was the Countess
de Winter.
Looks nice but she'll kill you.
Not that this will trouble
 any of you romantics, right? 

Even up until very recently, I thought that people were operating on two distinct levels at the same time: on one there was a blind pre-commitment to high velocity transactions of every sort - people were being asked, nay, compelled to increase the 'point-of-sale transactions' in everything in their lives, to increase the speed of them, and the numbers of those things.

And I thought that on that one overt level, they were simply stoically accommodating this demand which was being placed on them - and it basically was destroying them - but that beneath the surface they didn't really like what was happening but had been seduced into it all and did not know the way out.

I am no longer so convinced. 

I have seen people - if you take them aside momentarily from the high pressure demands of life, and have them 'contemplate' the matter more slowly - well their eyes glaze over and they drift away from you and you could assume they were realizing that what they had been previously doing was wrong and not good for them and that they really inwardly did not like it but had yet to truly faced it until that very moment that you encouraged them to do so.

Well that was my own arrogance constructing an explanation for people's behaviors and seeming reactions.

The human race is totally and completely lost.

That pre-commitment to some kind of insane super-charged high velocity life of never-ending P-O-S transactions was something they did all by themselves. 

Humans are not smart.

The 12-foot Lizards who are behind the scenes driving all the things going on inside today's CIA and the vast entanglement of linked computers and servers and routers and data archiving server farms - well they are the ones most convinced that 'money is energy.'

And they are the ones making strategies about micro-chipping you so that you can be manipulated into 'moving around' a lot and expending energy seamlessly in an AI-run computerized infrastructure. The Lizards literally believe that the higher the frequency and volume of the 'moving,' going on inside human populations, the greater will be their ability to extract wealth. So even the fact that it takes you time to go to a counter and get some folk to input data, will be 'streamlined' so that as long as they have you running backwards and forwards in the cage, then that will be perfect and they can have you just running through digital access gates and at those spots money will somehow be made.

Pavlov's dogs...

That's the human race.

So I just offer women
an 'Elizabeth Taylor cocktail'
sometimes. Is that bad?

They're all in a hurry.

Because everything they are doing is just so important.

Well I mean it is! Afterall, a medical practice needs to increase the volume of its patients going through the place.

Not that anyone can actually cure cancer.   

And 'patients' need to rush in and get their booster shots. And check their heart rates.

And buy commercially branded, FDA approved, things.

And if you said to people 'stop' would they stop?

No. No way.

So. They're all going to get nuked. And that will be the end.

And if you think this isn't going to happen, well that's right it isn't going to happen, except...

...my friends -

you, even you, if your official medical authority told you that it had happened you would certainly believe them.

Wouldn't you?

; )

And some of you think I should not be so mean.

Talbot Lago 38 - but
fully coachbuilt version.

Really?

Why not?

I have wrestled with the whole argument about whether it was ethical or moral to have such a vast swathe of the human race seemingly 'self-destruct' like they are about to.

I have looked at the facts and the figures.

And I have done it from what seems to me like a very selfish perspective, namely, that I worried about how much loss of 'good stuff' I could bear. I genuinely worried.

Hmn...

What do you all think?

What's your view because it is going to happen.

Finlay's was the best 'Casanova.'
Donald Sutherland's was great too but 
Finlay's was better.

Our 'friends' will not be making any intervention on this occasion because the decision has literally been made to let people kill themselves all, more or less, off. It's not going to be entirely as straightforward as that though is it -, as you should have been able to read between the lines there about CNN telling you that something 'has' happened. But people will widely believe anything they are told, and you know that's true.

So there's no need to intervene this time.

The moral dimension is about whether the human race as it stands, is worth saving. Well it clearly isn't, is it? People seem smart but they are not smart at all. But they want to claim to be, and they want you to affirm that they are, and also that they are utterly sensible and mature and really super responsible - and thus at the same time I certainly cannot give a woman a mini bottle of champagne with a straw in it. 

Oh really.
