Have I encapsulated Australian multiculturalism in one pithy sentence? I asked DALL-E to draw a foetus growing in a plastic bag for the image. That, I believe, is the ultimate destination of multiculturalism: the detatchment of humanity first from the land and then from family, with the goal of permanent attachment to systems run by … Read more

One of the most legendary commenters on MacroBusiness. We all knew this guy. We didn’t know who he was, where his numbers came from, and how much of them were embellished. He was the boiler plate man; a guy who would repeatedly post some modified/varied statistic heavy spiel in nearly every thread detailing the horror … Read more

With all the usual commentary by empowered white aboriginals in the media, criticizing Australia Day and generally spreading their hatred and ill-will towards a people and culture that immeasurably improved their lives, I thought I would celebrate Australia Day by reading the “Occidental Observer’s” recent essay on the ‘Aboriginal Worship and the Flight from Whiteness … Read more

Regardless of the merits of the arguments, a day to celebrate Australia has to be a day that everyone can participate willingly in. It’s clear that 26th January cannot be that day anymore. I think that there should be a random number drawn from on New Year’s Eve to allocate the public holiday. It should … Read more

The last thread was getting pretty long and hard to read, so I thought I would start a new one. I’ve been so inspired by the meme’s produced by the @auseconomicunit EZFKA account that I’m going to do a homage to them. I’ll start with one of my recent favorites: It is simple but effective, … Read more

Part 1 Muscling in on stagmal’s turf here…. There is a lot of ground to cover, so I will break this piece in a couple of parts.  My information comes from a variety of sources, both Western MSM, Russian MSM (if available in English), independent blogs, and a variety of Telegram channels.  For Russian side … Read more

Most commentary I’ve been following says that an American recession is on the cards, but they argue about its depth. Nouriel Roubini (https://nourielroubini.com/a-stagflationary-debt-crisis-looms/) says that the world is in deep shit….but he always says that. I think it’s too early to call inflation baked in. We’re only just exiting the post-covid boom…and China is just … Read more

It’s the end of 2022! Another year at this place. Man this year has seen a lot happen, or not happen.

They reckon their predictions have finally come true and that the great property crash is unfolding before us, but is it? Some bold calls that 50% crash is already well and truly under way and that prices have already dropped 30% in … Read more

It is with great pleasure that I announce the formal arrest of Sam Bank-Friendman pending his extradition to the United States, who have formally applied for it today in the Bahamas. It also effectively closes the circle in terms of the SBF case study, and speculation around the toxic role he has played in crypto. … Read more

Today’s the day Peachy tells us her insider information… So what will the RBA do? 30% chance of holding rates or will they hike the usual 25bps? It will be funny if they do hold and end up shitting the bed early next year.

….lets see what fascinating behaviour we can uncover today! This started as a comment, but since it is Saturday I thought I might make it into a post. I read this article during the week and it reminded me of the objectives I was wrote about in ‘The Golden Guardian‘ the other week. Here the … Read more

According to the ABC anyway. You know what this means. These falls will no longer be falls in probably one year and will resume their inexorable rise shortly after. We’ve got more migrants than we’ve ever had preparing to flood into Australia on top of what looks like a petering out inflation ‘crisis’ (could MB … Read more
