🇭🇰 🇲🇴 Another busy week here in Hong Kong. We are still working through all the things that we need to get done after an extended trip away. Every year we like to make at least one trip to Macau and V had that planned in for last weekend.

We had a most enjoyable time as tourists in Macau town and around the island. Macau has a very different feel to Hong Kong. It also has a lot of Portuguese links and we noticed even more of these after our recent stay in Lisbon.

V booked us to see two shows while there. Macau is famous for the enormous hotels and casinos with extravagant shows to watch. First up was Le Sseraphim in Galaxy Arena. This was a Korean Girl K-Pop group, Macau being the first part of the Asia leg of their world tour. Capacity at the venue was 16,000 people - mostly over-excited girls, replete with all the requisite merchandise, photographs and light sticks. Hardly very much culture but it was an experience!

After that we went back-stage after the City of Dreams, Dancing Waters show. This was much more interesting - some photos below. CoD is a purpose-built arena seating 2,000 people per show with 2 shows per day, 5 days per week. The show is spectacular (see here). Backstage is most interesting. We got to see how the stunts are done and how all the props and stage equipment work. If you go to the show you should go backstage too!

Apart from all that we had the first mornings with temperature below 20 degrees here. The locals were suddenly out in force in anoraks and coats. We found the weather to be really rather pleasant - it brought clear blue skies and nice sunshine that was not too hot or humid - rather like a perfect day in European summer!

Interview of the week

I really enjoyed this interview of Celia by James. Celia Farber is part of the extremely small club of mainstream journalists who woke up and quit the reservation. Topics discussed include: how Celia's column in Harper's Spin magazine broke the news that AIDS was just another scam, what it was like growing up in soft totalitarian Sweden (this will surprise you) and who controls the porn industry (in case you did not know already).

Celia Farber

Two journalists who began in mainstream print — Delingpole at The Daily Telegraph and The Spectator, Farber at Spin — compare notes on being expelled from that world. Farber's account of the Harper's AIDS exposé and its aftermath dominates the first half; the second half widens into disputes inside the

ICYMI, Celia's article exposing the AIDS scam is here below. This was just another precursor to the COVID Crimes.

Celia Farber's Harper's article alleges that AIDS research abandoned basic scientific safeguards, with fatal results. Her central case: Joyce Ann Hafford, a healthy pregnant Memphis woman who once tested HIV-positive (with a test like that for COVID that gives false positives). She was pushed into the NIH trial. She died of liver failure due to drug toxicity. Her consent form was unsigned.

Farber then examines an Uganda study for preventing AIDS transmission. It dropped its placebo study, lost records, and misreported deaths; two inspections condemned it. Rather than repudiate the findings, NIH officials rewrote the safety review and drove whistleblower Jonathan Fishbein from his job.

🛠️ Project Updates

The following are updates from some projects that I am following, supporting and collaborating with. What are you doing?

Better and Better

Nico continues to update and enhance the Kobalt reader for Kobo. The latest release gives you pinned bookmarks. These give you an easy way to get back to specific important bookmarks from the home screen.

If you use this and strongly feel that some features would add value, Nico is happy to hear from you and he is responsive.

Primitive Moneys

In lecture 3, Saifedean describes some of the earlier forms of money that have been used. He demonstrates how all of these exhibited the many of key features of money and how they attained widespread adoption in their region. He also explains how their downfall came about - these are important lessons to learn for money today.

Chapter 2 - Bitcoin Standard

Purpose of the lecture Having established in Lecture 2 what money is and what function it serves, the lecturer begins a historical survey of the development of money by examining the earliest and most primitive forms of money known to us. Two lessons are drawn from each example: 1. How

Your mind is more vulnerable than you think

For those of you who enjoyed last week's video on "who is running the world?" (with a surprising twist), this next one should also give you pause for thought. You likely think that you are smart enough to spot and resist attempts to manipulate your thinking. This short video demonstrates 6 techniques that are being widely used today to manipulate your and others' thinking. You have been warned.

Six exploits

The video is framed as a "manual" of six psychological exploits, each demonstrated live on the viewer rather than merely described. The through-line: you don't receive the world, you predict it — and anything that can predict you can steer you. Each exploit ends with a practical "patch". The

The whole story - ELI5

Recently Simon Dixon gave this excellent in-depth interview with Danny Jones. It is a long listen but it is absolutely required listening. Your eyes will be opened and you will see everything differently once you know these things.

Pay particular attention as Simon explains to Danny how Banking and then Fractional Reserve Banking and then fully debt-based money came about. This is one of the clearest explanations you will find.

Simon goes on to explain that world politics is driven by three main power centers: the MIC (Military-Industrial Complex, which includes defense contractors and intelligence agencies focused on war), the FIC (Financial-Industrial Complex, which includes banks and large asset managers focused on money creation), and the TIC (Technical-Industrial Complex, which includes AI (Artificial Intelligence, or machines that mimic human cognitive functions) and social platforms focused on data and behavior).

Simon and Danny

Core thesis: the visible "World War III" narrative is largely a surface phenomenon; underneath it, the United States, the Gulf states and China are converging into a multipolar order, and Israel is a node inside a financial structure rather than the structure's owner. 1. The method: forensic finance Dixon'

The global monetary system functions as a Ponzi scheme (a fraudulent investment structure where returns to older investors are paid by new capital rather than actual profit), where nearly all money is created as debt. Governments are entities that serve these financial complexes rather than the public interest.

You do not hate central bankers and politicians enough

The corruption that Simon described above is exemplified by what is unfolding in Europe, as Nic explains. Christine Lagarde was convicted in 2016 of financial negligence and somehow never penalised, rather she was promoted to run the European Central Bank. In this position, she oversaw and facilitated the destruction of the European economy and she is now conspiring with French, German, Dutch and Spanish politicians for musical chairs that will play out to ensure continuity of control ahead of the end of her term and the French Elections.

Criminal Lagarde

Christine Lagarde announced at the end of October that she will step down as ECB President on 7 February 2027, roughly nine months before her term expires on 31 October 2027 [1] [2]. Her exit coincides with two other senior vacancies, so three of the most powerful jobs in European

Letter from ...around the worldRoger Price

Those who see and understand what is happening, rightly find it wholly unacceptable however the politicians and bankers just do not care.

This will not end well

Meanwhile, in the USA, something equally corrupt is playing out. Nic explains how "creative accounting" is being used to hide circular financing and channel stuffing (as Erol explained last week) and many more crimes. The bubble is being inflated and it will pop. You cannot taper a Ponzi - first out, best out.

AI Bubble

Nic argues that a large share of the AI build-out is financed through leases that have not yet commenced, unconditional purchase obligations and guarantees that sit in accounting notes rather than on the balance sheet. Significant points 1. The $3.2 trillion figure is genuine and correctly attributed. KBRA'

If all of the above was not enough, Jensen spiced it up even more this week with his infidelity - not once but at least twice - with Alice and Kimberly. You will surely have seen the Western Media take on things, so I thought it would be interesting to share the perspective as seen from Taiwan. Lei explains:

Alice Huang

Host "Lei" reacts to the Alice Huang–Jensen Huang affair, using it to trace how a woman described as a former nurse from Hunan ended up running a Singapore company that bought billions of dollars of Nvidia chips — and allegedly doing so on behalf of China's Ministry of State

Interestingly, both perspectives came out at the same time (almost instantly) and they align. A cynic (or rational thinker?) might wonder if this is orchestrated theatre ahead of the APEC summit next week and/or that there is financial manipulation going on behind the scenes.

The truth is fairly obvious, once you stop and think about it.

🤔 Closing Thoughts

In recent days, Jason has worked with some folks in his Underground community to do a comprehensive analysis and take-down of the Psyop that was the Q-Drops.

There are no coincidences

Jason Breshears (Archaix) argues that QAnon was not a leak but a psychological operation — a pacification programme modelled on a Soviet template (that of the Bolshevik revolution) — designed to keep American patriots, Christians and conservatives waiting, decoding and doing nothing. The core thesis * Q's real function was demobilisation: "trust

Letter from ...around the worldRoger Price

Key insights he exposes

1. The escape clause does all the work. "Disinformation is necessary" and "future proves past" let supporters explain away any failure.
2. Deliberate ambiguity, not prophecy. Drops are worded so loosely that almost any later event can be retro-fitted. He calls the high-volume style "shotgun" prediction — fire enough pellets and something hits.
3. The scorecard is dismal. Of 4,966 drops, fewer than 15% are predictions; of 846 predictions, 203 are specific and 643 vague; accuracy peaks at 28% and falls to ~16% once naturally-occurring hits are stripped out.
4. The theology is the hook. Heavy New Testament language fuses Q to conservative Christian identity, so attacking Q feels like attacking faith. He cites Deuteronomy 18:22: an unfulfilled prophecy is not from God.
5. The "October" misreading. "Red October"/"October Surprise" were not date predictions but template labels: the 1917 Bolshevik takeover, then Operation Trust (1921–25) — a fake resistance that kept Russian patriots quietly waiting until they were rounded up. Q, he says, is that operation re-run on Americans.
6. The "Q" itself. He ties it to Qumran and the Dead Sea Scrolls' War Scroll ("sons of light versus sons of darkness"), and the early author pseudonym "Bareric the Scribe" to Baruch, Jeremiah's scribe — i.e. an apocalyptic Jewish war framing, not an intelligence disclosure.

His own observation. Using his 138-year "Phoenix" cycle with 1971 as the epicentre, the Q period (2017–22) mirrors Operation Trust (1920–25) — pointing to civil unrest around late 2026–2027.
