One-Line Quip Stretched into Overlong Article…
The Handbook of Human Ownership – A Manual for New Tax Farmers
Hey – seriously – congratulations on your new political post!
If you are reading this, it means that you have ascended to the highest levels of government, so it’s really, really important that you don’t do or say anything stupid, and mess things up for the rest of us.
The first thing to remember is that you are a figurehead, about as relevant to the direction of the state as a hood ornament is to the direction of a car – but you are a very important distraction, the “smiling face” of the fist of power. So hold your nose, kiss the babies, and just think how good you would look on a stamp. A stamp, for mail… No, not email, mail. Never mind, we’ll explain later.
Now, before we go into your media responsibilities, you must understand the true history of political power, so you don’t accidentally act on the naïve idealism you are required to project to the general public.
Human Livestock – A History of Tax Farming
The reality of political power is very simple: bad farmers own crops and livestock – good farmers own human beings.
This is not nearly as simple as it sounds, hence the need for this manual.
The very first thing to remember is that you are a mammal, an animal, and like all animals, you want to maximize consumption while minimizing effort. By far the most effective way to do this is to take from other people, just as a farmer takes milk and meat from cows.
…
It goes downhill from there.
The Downsides of Reading Online
The Physical Effects of E-Reading
by Christyna Hunter on February 24, 2014
We’re in the middle of an e-reading craze. Libraries are dashing around to add more digital titles to their catalogs. Libraries are lending out e-readers and even opening bookless branches. (See past PLA Online articles here and here.) We know that e-reading offers tons of great benefits for readers; but let’s slow down a minute and consider possible adverse effects.
According to a recent Scientific American article, reading paper versus electronic material makes a difference when it comes to memory and learning. In digital format, readers tend to skim, looking for keywords. As a result the full content of the material is often lost.
Screen reading takes more mental energy thereby leaving less for actual content retention. Students who read text via a computer screen did a little bit worse on a reading comprehension test than those students who used actual textbooks. During the test, they were able to look back at their textbooks for answers. The students who used actual textbooks retained not only more information but memory as to where that information was located.
Also, “seeing” only a page or two at a time rather than the whole book is disorienting to the reader. Although most e-readers have a digital readout somewhere on the screen of the readers progress within the book, that’s not enough. To physically hold the book and flip through individual pages makes the reader feel more grounded to the experience than a simple readout of her progress on the screen. When readers are grounded to the experience, material is more likely to be remembered.
This article, as well as a recent report by ABC News, lists the physical side effects of e-reading. Headaches and neck pain are the biggest complaints of those who use e-readers. Eye strain and dry eyes are others. Nearly 70% of American adults show these side effects according to the ABC News report.
And the concern is higher for children. E-readers are often the only device children read nowadays so the side effects mentioned above could harm children at an early age. If not caught, the harm could lead to more problems earlier in life.
There are ways to prevent these issues. Don’t spend more than 20 minutes at a time staring at an e-reader or computer screen. Be sure to blink often to lubricate your eyes. Take many breaks. Be sure to do safe neck exercises to ward off a stiff neck and shoulders.
Or just read an actual book!

Charedi Unwitting\Hypocritical Complicity in War Crimes Around the World
I’m not even talking about the phony “Peace Process“, the Expulsion of Jews from Gush Katif, and so on. I mean undisputed, splashy tomato-sauce crimes; massacres in far-off lands, and all the war rapes they entail.
The Rogue State corrupting Israel and the Israelites enthusiastically sells the African, the American, and the African-American perps training, arms, and equipment in the name of “Maschara” (business), and has done so for at least half a century.
A shocking excerpt from an old eulogy for Elie Wiesel by Rabbi Yaakov Feitman in the English Yated:
Secondly, it is appropriate this week in particular to commemorate the wonderful things Mr. Wiesel did accomplish for Klal Yisroel. As a true noseh b’ohl im chaveiro, he taught us all what it means not to forget our brethren, be they those who perished or those who were languishing under Soviet oppression. Furthermore, almost singlehandedly, he made the great kiddush Hashem of demonstrating that we Jews are consistent. If we are critical of those who were silent during the massacres of World War II, we must show that we now care about others, and Elie Wiesel led us in protesting the evils of Darfur and Bosnia, Cambodia and Rwanda. In that, he was a shliach for all of us…
So much to gape at here…
Is the rabbi saying there were evils committed in Darfur, Bosnia, Cambodia, and Rwanda (and one can add to the list)? Why, how can that be?!
Don’t the religious parties sign off on (at least) all the budgetary “Defense” spending the better for Goyim to slaughter hundreds of thousands of women, children, and infants? Has anyone ever heard any “observant” pols or their “leaders” protest the slightest aspect of it all, ever?
Do they at least demand gobs of blood money “for Torah” in return for their not bringing down the coalition (as they did with the Gush Expulsion treason)?
If Mr. Wiesel was a “shliach”, how come we never heard about the appointment (as in the case of political “Shluchei Derabanan”)? And did anyone ever hear him criticize the actions of the Israeli regime in its own (admittedly few) direct war crimes (see here), or its role as an enabler of Goy-on-Goy Genocides (Mishna A.Z. chap. 1:7, אין מוכרין להם דבין ואריות וכל דבר שיש בו נזק לרבים)?
Rabbi Feitman says Mr. Wiesel “taught us all what it means not to forget our brethren“, as a “true noseh b’ohl im chaveiro” no less.
Well, another way to put it is Mr. Wiesel (like many of his ilk) worshipped a pagan deity known as “Thejoos” to avoid consistent worship of the God of Israel.
Now, this drivel wasn’t written by just anyone. Yated chose a shul rabbi serving for over forty years. And he sounds exactly like the type to avidly advocate the Israeli clericalist parties (the newspaper certainly does), because of the “Gedolim” (the same ones whitewashing lesbian rapist M. Leifer and wicked C. Walder).
Relevant excerpts (footnotes and most links omitted) from Wikipedia on the author:
|
Mr. Wiesel commendably spoke of those who were “languishing under Soviet oppression”? Oh, but the Jewish-American religious establishment instructed their laymen to mostly keep their silence about the Russian “Jews of Silence“. The same Jewish establishment Rabbi Feitman is part and parcel of, per Wikipedia above! (Myself, I don’t know what to think. My point is “לטעמיה”.)
And note the contradiction as Agudath Israel today freely antagonizes Russia by stupidly picking sides in the Ukraine war.
See the rest of the Yated abomination here…
(The flat-out flattery here for a pitiable mixed bag, at best, is another topic.)
Bottom line: What is the “kiddush Hashem” of supposedly “consistent” religious pols actively backing both public and quasi-private Merchants of Death bathing in Cushite blood — and their votary voters all oblivious to this day?!
Consult another Yated article with choice words on the sin of hypocrisy (by the, wait, same author…Hmm).
And no, Hyehudi won’t criticize goyim or Jewish renegades who do “the same thing”. Ostensibly observant Jews ought to be held to a higher standard!
