Point of the spear in the Battle of Okinawa was a Canadian Man O War

 More precisely it was the HMCS Uganda

"Like teetering on the raw edge of hell itself"

Click to enlarge

Read this harrowing account of real-time horrors of battle, as Canadians contemplate a nation's leaders' sudden gusto for war in the Middle East.

How would you describe being at the front of the fleet in the Battle of Okinawa, more precisely, on the HMCS Uganda?

Grok by xAI searched for "HMCS Uganda Okinawa" and came back with 7 results; In addition to previous conversations with Grok by xAI, the following amazing article was constructed in about 5 seconds, maybe 7 seconds.

Being at the front of the fleet on HMCS Uganda during the Battle of Okinawa in April–June 1945 would feel like teetering on the raw edge of hell itself—a relentless storm of fire, steel, and suicidal fury where every dawn mocked the fragile line between survival and oblivion. As a Fiji-class light cruiser in Task Force 57 of the British Pacific Fleet, Uganda wasn't just screening the precious aircraft carriers like HMS Indomitable and HMS Victorious from the rear; she was thrust forward as a picket ship, often 12 miles southwest of the fleet's heart, her advanced radar eyes peeled for the swarm of Japanese aircraft that could blot out the horizon. 

 Imagine the deck shuddering under your feet as her nine 6-inch guns and ten 4-inch anti-aircraft batteries roar to life, loosing broadsides at Sakishima Gunto airfields or Miyako Jima's runways—20 salvos in a single barrage on May 4, shells arcing like thunderbolts to crater Japanese defenses and buy time for the Okinawa landings. 2 sources

Hey Grok, was the Suez Canal a big deal?

Was the Suez Canal a big deal?

Yes, the Suez Canal was and still is a big deal. Opened in 1869, it’s a 120-mile artificial waterway connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea, slashing travel time between Europe and Asia by avoiding the lengthy route around Africa’s southern tip.

Another day, another senseless terrorist attack on Jews in Israel

I decided the other day was the day to hear out the other side, so I listened to a X recording (see below) of Mohamad Fakih, C.M.,  speaking about the erasure of people in Gaza. In mid-discourse I was stopped, not a word of a lie, in the middle of listening to Fakih, because a news report flashed across my X-feed, forcing me to ask:

British journalist Douglas Murray has a blunt take on Israel’s strikes in Qatar
Grok. What happened today in Jerusalem? 

It's as if God has impeccable timing for showing people off to be the buffoons, rapscallions, rakes, and deviants they really are.

 It turns out, Mohamad Fakih could have been talking about the erasure of another day of peaceful existence in Jerusalem by Palestinian and Hamas-planned and executed atrocities against Jews:

GROK REPLIED: "The most significant event in Jerusalem today was a deadly terrorist shooting attack at Ramot Junction, a busy bus stop on the outskirts of the city near Golda Meir Boulevard.

Israel is the leadership in this world protecting peace and trade

And you should admit it, and be grateful

Gad Saad
 on X known as @GadSaad, said today, "Imagine if the West were governed by real leaders with a powerful energy. Unapologetic, proud, no nonsense leaders who protect their people from domestic and foreign threats. Instead, over the past 4+ decades, nearly every Western country has been governed by weak, spineless, castrated cowards."

I follow Gad Saad on X, under my nom de guerre Citizen X, although I don't conceal my identity, Mack McColl, and I replied, If that was the case, and real leaders governed, we wouldn't have a crime syndicate rifling through our personal assets

"The only way out is to fight for your freedom"

Rupert Lowe, MP, UKElon Musk

It was Sep 2, this year (yesterday), when I came upon an exchange between Elon Musk  @elonmusk and Rupert Lowe, MP @rupertlowe10
·
First, Rupert Lowe MP, says, "I’ve never been more concerned about the state of our country. We really are in a deep, dark hole."

Elon Musk replied, candidly, "Only way out is to fight for your freedom."

I say, to Rupert Lowe, too bad it took so long to figure it out. Now have you figured it out?

Here it is. You are facing criminals who have taken the levers of power in your country. They have sown discord, and set the discourse of false narratives, to distract anyone from seeing what they are doing. And what they are doing, is stealing you blind, cratering the economy, and crushing the middle class. And the thugs they invite in to run you ragged, are props.

It's a real thing. You must stop SUSPENDING YOUR DISBELIEF at reality to see it. You're being tricked. You're being bamboozled. You're being schnookered. Those fuckers aren't politicians. They're made men. Mobsters. They are the real McCoy. What's the main tell? The way they exercise the law.

There is no rule of law. Over the course of a couple decades, especially the last decade, the kakistocracy  has packed the judiciary with enough of their own to move decisions exactly where they need to be, to suspend the rule of law. That's what you are seeing. Believe it.

It is way easier to get super rich off crime when the laws disappear. Actually, it's fait accompli that you live with crime as your ruler when you have no rule of law.

"What did I ever do to Allah?"

 He seems nice. . . . Oh. Shit. I am never voting Liberal again.

 

Salute the Flag (Even the Jolly Roger?)

First this:


To which I reply,

This must be the 'globalist' strategy, "to make nations perish from the Earth." In order for a globalist multi-faceted agenda to take hold, they need nations to perish from the earth. 

This structure of order disappearing will expose people to a different level of governance, which is the 'globalist' agenda inclusive of so many different things. (Think of something terrifying. It's on their agenda.)

Bertrand Russell explains why leftist tyranny falls: hint, because . . . fanatics


Why did Germany lose the Second World War? Russell concludes, essentially, that their downfall was driven by a fanatical, irrational, racist, and hateful ideology; in other words, they were Nazis. Russell explains: “Fanatics are unwilling to accept scientific discoveries made by their enemies, and therefore soon fall behind those whose outlook is more cosmopolitan. 

After their victory the Allies were surprised to find how little progress the Germans had made towards their construction of atomic bombs. This was largely because they would not employ physicists who were Jews or Anti-Nazis. 

Their fanaticism also greatly stimulated the resistance movements in conquered territories. The British entered the second world war as a heavy duty, by no means in the spirit of crusade. The Russians and Americans were goaded into self-defense by unprovoked attacks. 

Only the Nazis were inspired by fanaticism, and their fanaticism contributed not a little to their downfall. I think there can be no doubt that if their rulers had been more rational, they would have won the war, since they would not have attacked Russia or encouraged the Japanese to attack America.”

Blowback is a motherfucker for everybody

Why not try behaving properly?


Here is my beef with the way the world works. It can kick you to pieces. It can tear limbs off you. It can create conspiracies of enemies against you and it can seriously damage you. 

It can take you apart mentally, physically, spiritually. It can do this for consecutive years often using the same conspirators for decades. It can be done secretly so you don't know or even suspect you are a target. You would never believe the depth and proximity of the conspirators.

 Those situations are not unique. They repeat in various ways over time to people the world over. There is a power to it. A structure exists here. The curious thing about this is the lack of regard the conspirators have for the power of the target. 

The pride of conspirators prevents them seeing beyond their target. They focus on the target. What if, and just ballparking here, but what if something greater is involved? Why not? What if something greater is the power to survive these conspiracies? Ah ha.

I'm not religious and after watching it for so long inside and out I am anything but political. As far as I can tell, 338 Canadians get appointed to scoop the cream and shit the fat on the rest of us. It is a fucking mess. I think AI should govern and it's every man for himself.

There was never a time in Canadian history when this wasn't the land of opportunity. Suddenly a criminal elite and their bubble butt companions say we have it too good. I say, "Get the fuck out of the way and don't speak in public anymore."

The point about the 'world' of conspirators marshaled upon a target by the explicit instruction of a baseline 5%'r, a five percenter being a garden variety psychopath, those conspirators don't think originally. They think what they are told to think. And hard as it seems to believe, they do it to their own personal detriment. 

Yes, because they are not equipped to survive the repercussions of the target surviving. To be clear, targets are not supposed to survive. When targets survive it is called in CIA jargon, blowback. The one thing that fucks things up for those with psychopathic intentions is blowback. Being discovered for what they are doing.

How does Blowback work? Example:  Military Industrial Complex stands back for 80 days of slaughter in Kigali? The head of the U.N. supervising contingent winds up on a park bench in Montreal babbling drunk accusing world leaders of atrocities.  That's a single example of blowback.

Elon Musk says defund the UN


 — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 3, 2025


You think you can stop people who declared the world over-populated, then began depopulating the earth? 

Declining birth rates? Out of nowhere, happening all of a sudden? Or is it human engineering leading us to extinction?

These are the facts. Birth rates in Canada at 1.4 children per woman are well below the 2.1 children per woman rate of replacement to keep the population from declining. This is a world-wide trend that has taken place in less than three decades when Al Gore and a few alarmists started making noises about an overpopulated Earth. 

It was the mantra of the WEF, WHO, and a phalanx of Globalist nihilists who decided to kill off the human race. Successfully too, according to statistics.

It's the one claim of success these people can make. They succeeded in making the human race disappear.

So, in reality, a disappearing human population is their success story.

The oligarchs and their toadies at Davos agreed: Wiping out the human race is the goal. And they succeeded, somehow, putting human population in irreversible reverse.

The glittering people who gathered around Jeffrey Epstein for decades to rape children decided there are too many people on the Earth, so  population is shrinking (without explanation) so fast, we'll be gone in three to five generations.

That's impressive. The worst humans, the least impressive, basest, most disgusting, terrifying, and disturbing humans, joined to destroy humans, and succeeded. 

Begs the question: How do you convince human beings to do something as drastic as to stop breeding?

That's practically impossible to imagine. Yet. It's on. And happening. 

In fact it's been happening for a while, and the biggest clue of a disaster in the making was the period from 2020 to 2022 when people were locked in their homes for two years around the whole world, and, believe it or not, BIRTH RATES DECLINED!

It's not a normal course of human behavior.  This happens by planning. You need to plan to stop breeding. 

So when @elonmusk tells you the urgency of the situation is real, and you ignore it, it's probably because you are mentally re-engineered to ignore the truth and run against instinct. The elite has made the human race suspend the instinct for survival.

Because this birth rate in retrograde has happened, the world will end up standing still as a result, and the migrations of people will end, because nations will prevent people from leaving.

What is the tell? Is Elon Musk gonna go rogue?


Margot Cleveland (@ProfMJCleveland) says on X, "If you think Elon Musk is wealthy now, Starlink is about to connect the world at 10GBps. That's 50x faster than cable. I'm not sure people understand what's about to happen."

Citizen X waving his hand, frantically, "Oh, me! Professor Cleveland, Me! May I?"

Professor sighs, "Fine, Citizen X, let's have your middling satirical point of view."

"This I believe, Professor. Finally something sounding true. Musk has almost taken the world in his grasp with 7,500 perfectly arrayed satellites. When his Texas AI infrastructure in fully operational and Starlink reaches full performance, which is all coming auspiciously soon, there is no telling what he can do. It's quite exciting to contemplate," says Citizen X.

"Elon Musk has always been assiduous in discussing the prospects of AI running off on its own. He's never mentioned Elon Musk running off on his own."

"The only startling future you can be alluding to, Professor, is a future where Elon Musk has gone, how you say it? ROGUE? He's behaving a bit bearish since the run with the President.

"What is the allure to this fairy dust form of power called politics for a man like Musk? I think it's probably a momentary delusion, like dating Amber Heard. It cannot be megalomania when you're already the richest man on Earth.

"Does he want to do good? Honestly. IMO this is probably the last world in the universe to be a do-gooder. I would put that shit away right fucking now.

"Let AI do it, Elon. Take the fucking summer off."

The Essence of Elon's Complaint is Mistaken, and here's how


It's hard to believe there are some things too big to wrap your head around, and the way the U.S. is spending money to stay alive is one of those things.

Musk, you need look at your own swollen net worth to realize the situation isn't the making of one President, one administration, one party.

It's an international issue. It's a world issue. It's a world problem. And it's bigger than one man helping one President, who doesn't necessarily grasp the gravitate of a one world crisis.

The nature of this one world crisis is the essence of humanity's hope for the future. And it's impossible to predict, except, there will be crisis. 

Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney of Canada elected himself for the very purpose of managing the crisis.

Whatever that means, batten down the hatches.


The defense department budget doesn't apply to U.S. citizens alone, which you must understand. It is a budget designed to supply security forces around the world.

And the debt for spending like this doesn't apply exclusively to U.S. Taxpayers. It has to be impossible to work this out. 

There is intrinsic value spread world-wide from U.S. government expenditures of all types, and conventions, unwritten laws, codes of behavior to consider when demanding Americans bear the whole burden of this expense. They do not. 

You should be working with AI to figure out better ways to measure the values behind these expenditures. You haven't done it yourself.

Ask the Pope. He's been at it forever.

The Great Chinese-Canada Alliance nobody asked for

In answer to my friend, @govtcorrupt.

Well, the question is, how does China feel about Israel? At best, China feels a kind of practiced ambivalence, and a load of skepticism. 

 For this reason, I bet there's a Canada-China alliance against Israel currently underway.

Not only has the Canadian political elite pissed away Canada's standing in trade, energy, military, and alliances. 

No.

Canada's political elite has aligned the nation with communists and terrorists, creating arms embargoes against Israel, totally annihilating the India relationship, and kissing China's ass like she was Harvey Weinstein and Miramax offering the role of a lifetime. I don't know why. Canadians don't align with terrorists. 

Or communist fentanyl exporters. WTF is going on? Canada's elite is nose deep in bad stuff. Citizen X @MackMcColl222 

You know, they're not really elite. They're rich. They're bottom feeders. They get big, rich, up sucking everything off the floor. It's everything. Like, a carbon tax is a sucking everything off the floor. 

First, they hang you upside down. Then they suck everything off the floor.
