Okay, mathematics! Yay!!! Three hundred thirty-five million (335,000,000) is the alleged number from the people in gooferment who pretend to be able to count. Can they count? I don't know, but a $36 trillion debt makes it seem like they can't do maths.

The same cretins assert that 258.3 million Americans are adults. Did they all vote? They did not.

According to a thing calling itself "popular vote tracker" there were allegedly 74,394,444 votes for the Harris Walz, which is a strange dance not performed on the Blue Danube. Same site asserts 76,901,177 for the Trump-Vance ticket. Huh. I worked with a Bill Vance in Houston back in my space launch days.

Then there are the "third party" candidates like Jill Stein, Bobby Kennedy Jr., and Chase Oliver. These three got 775,173; 748,219; and 639,244 respectively. Roughly 220,000 other presidential candidate votes. Did not see a number for Emmanuel Pastreich. I note for the record that the wicked cia wikipedia has roughly the same totals for Donald and Kamala, but slightly fewer. No idea the methodology in either case. And, remember that I don't believe anyone in the gooferment knows how to count. Doubly so for those purporting to count votes in elections.

So I am using the largest values for which I have data, because why not? Feel free to run your own calculation if you don't like mine. It's not much, just arithmetic. Any spreadsheet will do. I prefer OpenOffice because I don't like the extraneous privacy invasive code Microserf has been adding to their stuff for decades. ymmv

Okay, the total is: 153,678,257 voters. Which means that: 59.5% of the adult population voted. It also means that on the close order of 45.9% of the total population voted.

Which means that more people didn't vote (including those who weren't allowed to vote because the state believes in taxation without representation and hates children in a profound variety of ways). So, half the country is *not* for your favourite candidate, whomsoever that might be.

It also means that the largest "block" of the voting age eligible public, a total of 104.6 million persons did not vote. More Americans who were eligible to vote chose not to vote FOR ANY OF THESE CANDIDATES than voted for any one of them.

Why not? I don't choose to speak for others, but I didn't vote and have not voted in a presidential election since 1988 (for Ron Paul as the Libertarian candidate that year, thankyouverramuch) because voting is a really stupid way of taking choices, because I don't consent to be governed (and have not since at least 1993), because I don't believe my vote would be counted, because cheating has been a major aspect of every election since 1788, because none of these candidates even vaguely represents my views on anything, and because I don't believe the system is decent, good, nor God-fearing. I think it is sinful to vote, and yes I disagree with Lysander Spooner who contended that voting is not consent to be governed but a way of defending against the worst cretins who might become office holders. I think voting is really bad.

I am not your judge. Jesus Christ is your judge. I don't condemn you if you voted, nor do I condemn you for voting for a particular candidate. But if you think you are going to vote your way to freedom, please tell me: who counted the votes?!

I didn't vote either. I have no faith in it. Everything is falsified, nothing reflects what I would actually want, and I am not represented. I do not consent to be governed. This is why, to our crew, most of us feel like this is a fantasy football draft. We're having fun playing along because none of it is real. So we're trying our best to guess the narrative, not the outcome of conditions that truly influence reality. It's a different approach. And it becomes useful in predicting the ebb and flow of things like markets and human behavior, not because they make perfect sense that way when studied organically, but because you can guess if x narrative is injected into the zeitgeist, y and z are the likeliest behavioral trajectories of the masses depending upon which flavor Kool-Aid they enjoy most. It's all just operant conditioning to generate manufactured circumstances to control the flow of the action.

Yes, many times over. Many wise thoughts here. Thank you.

I myself never enjoyed playing nor watching sportsball, so the idea of a "fantasy" league of sportsball players playing imaginary contests in some contrived system always seemed like the depths of madness, to me.

However, my second eldest brother always likes to point out that people are not incapable of thinking and remembering vast amounts of data. He likes to use sports statistics as an example. People who wouldn't be able to tell you a single physics equation or name a single author from American or British literature could tell you not only the names of very player in every major ball game in some period of years but also quote statistics about their batting averages, runs batted in, pitching stats, whatever, from memory, during a conversation in a diner. People have vast capabilities. And use them for things they find important.

Yeah, there's a lot of operant conditioning. I was never one for the trapper keeper manifestations, though I did at times mark things on the outside of the denim notebooks to amuse myself. But I will say that Tulsi Gabbard is a psychological warfare specialist for the military. Retired? Pfft. What does that even mean with the deep state? idk

I don't trust any of them.

Demi Pietchell, the quote attributed to me in this article is actually made by the Bailey's, not me.

Am referring to this:

"Dr Peter McCullough is a hero to many in the medical freedom community and has been one of the most prominent voices in the fight against the COVID vaccines. While we have supported him on this front, it has been increasingly difficult to condone his public statements about “viruses” and the alleged novel disease entity ‘COVID-19’. We have made some previous responses here, here and here but he continues to double down on his claims.

Recently, Dr McCullough appeared on the Man in America show and attempted to justify the “science” of the virologists. He also made some outrageous claims about those of us providing refutations to the virus model and even told outright lies about the history of our group.

In this video Dr Mark Bailey is joined by ‘no virus’ veteran Dr Kevin Corbett to provide a detailed commentary and rebuttal to Dr McCullough’s claims. This is a vital issue as such claims are keeping people trapped not only in the viral delusion but also within the wider allopathic paradigm."
