“Preemptive cancellation” As a manipulation, prompted by the dread of a political cancellation by an electorate to which the Rs have NOTHING to offer but arrogance and the mockery of human care, While they cling to the foul raft of an oligopoly.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

I do, and we do have deer ticks… But “woke” is, like Beelzebub, a made up thing, Used to fabricate an ‘enemy’ out of your own unhappiness with the modern condition, …which has lapsed by default, and this idiocy merely worsens the lapse.

I would say it is a clear indicator *that* one lies📌 When we were kids, we joked about “the bogey man” knowing it was nonsense: These partisans can’t see their own foolishness: They *choose* to rail about sheer nonsense.

Having heard his speech, I’m NOT worried: Platner has a gift, and has the right touch to move the electorate significantly, And such a touch is what Dem campaigns have needed, and often have lacked📌

This is not an Administration, It is a drunken frat party at a mediocre school📌

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

Indeed📌 Especially as their intent is TO DISSOLVE EVERYTHING Into fungible Money, To be scarfed up by predatory jackals once the Civic Order is broken apart Globally📌

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

All wisdom comes from the ground, wherever it be: People may ‘locate’ this ‘ground’ as they choose, Whether earth, sky, the body, or the collective unconscious: But to think we are independent of its larger compass is to lapse into the blind illusion of our own power, And a self-deception📌

030

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

Yes Worth footnoting that such self-promotion arises from the inability to know oneself as a human being, And substituting therefore a ridiculous ‘project’ for ANY real self-discovery, as the latter requires the very trust that one cannot experience in oneself.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 13/02/2026

Ah, yes, But she has already encased herself in a ‘plastic fantastic’ shell, Imagining somehow she can beguile a world of human beings into settling for a smiling proxy, visibly delighted by her disingenuous art! “Ms Bondi, you seem so pleased with yourself: why is that?”

Grim Per Prof Snyder, wd-be autocrats punch holes in Lawful Order by setting up ‘border’ spaces where nat’nl law does not apply📌 Moths do this to eat, but autocrats do it to destroy the scarf 📌

Indeed, And it is consistent with his -raping the world for his profit -raping Maga for polit power -raping public for personal adulation -raping Nation for egoistic glory: This is a person who has NO LAW but himself, Who hijacked ev’one to “win”📌

The Power of Money, like the Power of an Armed Faction, Threatens the Civic Power of the State📌 This is inherent, and was understood long ago, as the Malefactors of Great Wealth had to be tamed📌 Unlike the State, the Power of Money has NO DUTY except to itself📌 And it is an anti-public Faction📌

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 12/11/2025

Putting it mildly Trump’s m.o. is to fling whatever he pleases, without the capacity to foresee any consequence: The ‘self’ he *thinks he is* has to be pure in his own mind, The product of a fraudulent self-invention, while an evil will lurks behind everything.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 09/11/2025

Epstein ran a frat party for world élites where one could connect without fear of exposure: Those who deplore the ‘deep state’ hv been misled utterly: It was always the élites who did as they pleased, with utter disdain and amorality. This disclosure is what they dread: it destroys the coverup.

000

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 16/10/2025

It would be trouble for ALL those players it wd hv been trouble for …in 2009, when Trump was just a tv figure, And ALL of whom Acosta had to shield from exposure📌

What the Drs did not say, “Mr President, we are not considering dementia, but just for assurance that we don’t need to consider it, we’ll give you a dementia test.” They don’t see many ‘perfect scores’ because they test when a patient’s condition makes them unsure!

Bravo! Great interview, so well-grounded in history! Thank you🙏🏼

“We, the People” Want Government! Some of the people want us NOT to want it: The key is what *those* people want to do in its absence: The lion will not lay down with the lamb: it wants to eat it.

He’s enamored of the difference between the resplendent phallus he wants ppl to see, And the amorphous dump he is known to produce: Inferring Trump’s meaning benefits from reading the declamations of his somatic Id.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 18/09/2025

Ah But *volatility* is the method, Like a swarm of gulls, scattering the picnickers on the beach, To have clean pickings of what they left behind

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 29/08/2025

It began decades ago… A Reagan advisor told him, “You must poison the idea of Government in the public mind.” We’ve gone from subtle toxicity, through blatant falsification, to massive demolition: Under the vengeance of an angry child, we have lawless greed aspiring to run rampant.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 12/08/2025

To themselves, they call it ‘success’ Central idea is To Divide …reflecting, imo, a deep division in their own psyches *between the ‘fabricated’ self, which seeks supremacy, and the *disowned* self, which must be extruded as disposable ‘things’ to be flushed away, since their humanity is erased.

He would want to prevent Putin from doing so… “The Art of the Desperation”

Mm Most immigrant workers tend to ‘lay low’ until it’s time to pick strawberries.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 29/07/2025

…not to mention how Trump’s Model Management Co [1999-2017] along with other such [incl Brunel who suicided] Recruited pretty girls from overseas, falsely obtained visas, ‘employed’ them in US: Epstein’s was the more lucrative enterprise, but Trump was in a similar game😐

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 29/07/2025

Indeed Only a man who despises himself will lie to himself about his golf score! Just as he plays himself for a sucker, he plays the public the same: The only form of ‘greatness’ he knows is “the art of the con.”

How can she be so callous as not to feel outrage at how she was betrayed? Perhaps she overlooked Yrump’s sleaze for the greater political good, But when she found out he was at the heart of the trafficking, and she had to lie to conceal it, How could she not have felt used??

010

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 27/07/2025

Mm Another ‘extractive industry,’ like diamonds and cobalt by corrupt heads of state, But this one trafficking human beings. Major transnational crime📌 Chattel slavery was outlawed 150y ago, but this goes on: Now crime is in power. Thank you for your documentation!

They would hear her keeping her mouth shut. Recall, her father ‘fell’ off his yacht.

Vengeance, Biblically, was the Lord’s, But red state voters appropriated it, and their zeal ‘trumped’ any concern for material well-being: I don’t question their aggrievement, but the cause of their plight was from econ plunder rather than ‘libs’ Misguided valor animated them📌

000

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 18/07/2025

…a characteristic since his childhood: If realty impugns you, squelch reality: He’d have been an unsuccessful boy, unlucky w/ friends or girls, who had to erase that bitterness by indulgence, And sharing it w/ buddy Jeff, maybe his first friend! Deny the solution, deny the plight.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

Always! He may have been self-deceived enough to ‘believe’ Putin respected him before, (Perhaps having fallen for flattery) But hvg been so deeply in hock to Russia, his neediness may have required him to deceive himself. Now, hvg cash flowing, and being out of hock, He judges differently.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

I recall GW Bush’s outrage when Saddam Hussein “gassed his own people” 20y ago… And here WE are!

Arendt’s perceptivity was near-prophetic! One of our greatest modern thinkers, and an enduring beacon of truth.

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

Indispensable! “The self-destruction of Amer power” will puzzle historians as Trump wd “prefer to lead a country that is feared rather than loved” But US may become “too brutal to love but too irrelevant to fear.” A perfect epitome of the man in the Oval and the demented ‘greatness’ he fancies!

000

Olaf J Ogland @platoinct.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

Insecurity In the modern condition, where everything has changed and ungroundedness is endemic, The idea of trusting oneself has become untenable, And one *must* resemble an image of some sort to feel successful: ->great disputation over *which image to impersonate*📌
