Pot-addled hillbilly goes global

Back in March I noted in a post that the blog had passed 3 million views, and it had taken 15 years to get there. Six months later, it's racked up another 3 million. Not bad numbers for a blog with three followers and a warning for readers with every post! Somebody suggested maybe that's why people read it. If it's worth censoring, maybe it's worth reading! Anyway, pretty sure two million views per month ain't anywhere near Lambo country, and besides, I'd have to get onside with those community standards to monetize, which prospect holds no appeal for me. The pot-addled hillbilly has definitely gone global though. Check out the top ten audiences over these six months, ranked in order: USA, Brazil, Singapore, France, Bangladesh, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, and "other." That last category makes up over half (1.64 million, to be precise). The pot-addled hillbilly is everywhere!

France in flames as Micron determined to go out in blaze o' glory

Spent some time watching live video feeds from various French cities this afternoon. The headlines proclaiming the unrest is just "student riots" are highly misleading. Sure, there were scenes of riot police clubbing kids who looked barely in their teens, but big picture, you had a wide swathe of unions and civil society orgs and fringe political outfits and just about every other constituency in France not part of Little Napoleon's 14% approval rating. The reporting at CBC avoided any mention of the real reasons for the unrest; severe cutbacks to social spending in favour of a vastly increased military budget and the promise of perpetual financial propping-up of rump Ukraine. There's a reason for that. The top nabobs at our official propaganda network are all too well aware that's exactly the course we're on; France, Germany, and numerous other NATO-EU states will no doubt see street riots before we do. There is no question we're looking at the same fate. The Carney regime has embarked on a clear program of crippling social spending by committing at least a trillion dollars to military spending over the next fifty years. PM Carney's got polling approval numbers never before seen in Canada. African dictators are in awe! He has a solid plan. We'll pay down our debt by selling our critical infrastructure to US hedge funds! Most of those African dudes did that long ago, but no worries... elbows up! But back to France. I can't see how Li'l Napoleon is gonna get the toothpaste back in the tube at this point. How long are the cops gonna attack retired firefighters protesting their shrinking pensions before they realize they should be pounding out the politicians instead!

Cost of Quebec City - Windsor high-speed rail corridor has already doubled, years before construction can even begin

The original estimates, cooked up by the Liberal Party in 2024, clocked in at 60 billion CAD. The revised estimate, released today by the Parliamentary Budget Office, doubles that number! And remember, it's the earliest of early days, and opposition to this project hasn't begun to coalesce. Frankly, like most of Carney's pipe(line) dreams, they make for splashy announcements, but most of this stuff will never see the light of day. They do, however, serve to reinforce the illusion that all these fab projects somehow represent our stand against The Ugliest American of all time. You know, the guy who demanded we more than triple our "defence" spending from 1.4% of GDP to 5%! Yup, that's the guy we're defying with a trillion in deficit spending for military and another T for infrastructure. PM Carney has put our country on the same path to war our NATO allies are speeding down. Germany, France, and UK have all announced spending cuts to social programs to facilitate massive boosts to military spending. These NATO allies are people our useless legacy media claim Carney wants to forge an anti-Trump alliance with. Ya, I don't know how retarded you'd have to be to swallow that shit. An anti-Trump alliance with a bunch of impotent clowns known to refer to Mafia Don as "Daddy?"
