Insulting Your Intellect - Gematria and Larger Numbers

 

That’s the proper use of gematria on social media.  You don’t actually do the gematria, you just reference how in the manner it’s practiced by bad actors it ends up being complete gibberish.  And the following is a recap of how astroturfing by MAGA trolls has helped put a gang of incompetents in power.  Instead of actual adults in the room negotiating peace treaties, trade deals, bipartisan legislation or anything meaningful, we have gibberish speakers dumbing down the content to own the libs and keep the base riled up.

It’s fairly well known that conspiracy gematria has a fondness for rather small and therefore insignificant numbers.  As much as they would love to have a genuine example of finding a lengthy Pi match to a large number of decimal places:

31415926535897323846

Like Chief Keef would say, “Ain’t Gonna Happen”.  That number is WAAAAAYYYYYY too fucking big.  The vast majority of gematria, the useful range is two and three digits.  Even four digits is pushing it for them.  That usually requires some form of cheating instead of a straight up type the word into the four base ciphers and see what happens approach.  So when I saw the % quoted in that Bluesky post I allowed my curiosity to wander and see exactly what kind of gibberish Gematrix.org had available.  At Gematrix you can type in a number and have it spit out search results of words and phrases, sorted by the frequency of the searches.  And for 13618 we get a result of, “That number is waaaaayyyy too fucking big.”

Qanon trolls have put this phrase near the top of the 13618 search results.  Most likely it was searched once and then Gematrix has an algorithm that randomly goes through adding on bogus searches.  Second most likely is that it was someone repeatedly searching for this phrase for some idiotic reason.  But, I can promise you that in the over 200 searches for that, there’s no fucking way two people independently decided to misspell FORTY and all that other crap to perform some magic gematria ritual.

A perfect example of gematria as a rabbit hole entry point.  You might get drawn in to an echo chamber with an offhand decode.  Then dismiss it as nonsense.  But tell me more about this celebrity death ritual, anti-trans stuff and racist shit I like to hear about.  And holy crap I can win lots of $$ gambling on football?!!?  (No.  No you won’t.)

They, in theory, could have spelled forty correctly.  In theory they could have used the correct Qanon slogan of WWG1WGA.  And in theory they could have substituted a more well known synonym for “vitiates”.  Then just alter some of the other gibberish to hit 13618 if that was the goal.  But astroturfing doesn’t need meaningful content.  Just engagement, and the more random hits the better.  The more fake traffic on a site the better for the algorithms.

Yes, the cost of your groceries is in part higher than it should be because of complete gibberish.

Rabbit Hole Entry Conspiracies

As a part of the dying middle class I’ve had the opportunity to engage with a lot of people on both sides of the wealth line.  Fortunately neither too much of the ultra wealthy or the ultra poor.  This works well for me because I have no desire to hang around anyone that admires wealth for the sake of wealth.  (8 people have more wealth than the bottom 4 billion people.). The manifestation of interaction in non internet life is mostly working class living paycheck to paycheck one medical bankruptcy away from poverty and better off people whose education is outdated compared to current social trends seeking to maximize what their savings does.

And that second class of better off, older (late boomer and early Gen X) people has proven to be surprisingly susceptible to RW propaganda.  They just don’t “get” how things have changed and the deliberate breaking of things to keep them interested in Fox News style ideas that don’t work are a fantasy.  They genuinely believe that if their investments don’t earn passive income of six figures a year, the poor people are stealing from them.  And these are the mid level of the conspiracy theory pyramid.  They’re the business owners, bank vice presidents, dentists, and doctors.  Smart enough to know the Earth isn’t really flat.  But if going along with rabbit hole entry conspiracy theories like flat Earth and gematria, it’s for the greater good if the evil intellectuals are brought down a notch.  Susceptible to the new outrage porn like furries using litter boxes, immigrants eating pets, and tariffs on islands with no people are OK.  All not real things.  All not challenged for being ridiculous even though they should be.

No amount of picking yourself up by your bootstraps can generate everyone having passive income that grows beyond working years and then gets passed on to the next generation for EVERYONE.  That’s classic Ponzi scheme thinking.  That’s how those 8 people get more and more wealthy by not actually generating any real value to society.  The ultra wealthy know how to break things real good and don’t mind, and even help purposefully generate, stock market crashes.  Call it a correction and someone who had a million dollars saved up will get back to where they were after a couple of years.  Never realizing or acknowledging that someone with an extra 1000 to save up can’t afford to have that wiped out because their car needs repaired.  Morale at the workplace is epically low.  Mental health in general is epically low.

These things are not new.  And as great financial powerhouses come and go the format remains the same.  But this time is different.  It’s a lot closer to the end of the Bronze Age and how natural disasters added to societal pressures and upended everything.  And that’s because of our old friend climate change.

The anti-science/anti-intellectual in the U.S. before the Cold War was over.  We got over the Great Depression with leadership making policy that actually worked.  Enter the rich assholes ruining everything.  Privatize education.  Return education to the wealthy.  Promise the middle class a future that there’s no way is going to happen.  At least not in the manner presented, free money for all and a life of luxury for all.  Someone, somewhere, is being exploited.  Education too expensive after privatization.  Education ruined by insistence that religious indoctrination is more important than science literacy.  Complacency about children getting shot at school.  Education ruined, ✅.

Now we have a large swath of working class people that are willing to believe that rabbit hole entry conspiracy content is real and meaningful, which it absolutely is not.  It’s not enough to just promote it, you are supposed to actively attack the people who are smarter than you.  “Shoot that messenger” with the right answer.  Be that scorpion that stings the frog giving you a ride across the stream.

There’s always been a movement away from science literacy.  Fringe ideas that don’t do any harm by belief in them.  If you think the Earth is flat and it’s not it’s not going to change the effects.  Your plane will still land.  Your phone’s map app will still work.  Gravity will still work.  No need to burn scientists as heretics for speaking about what actually is going on.

If your gematria decode leads you to believe your neighbor is the Antichrist, it might be bad for him and you if you get carried away.  But it doesn’t actually make him the Antichrist.  A counter decode can easily be made to prove you are the Antichrist, not him.

Getting into astrology isn’t going to change that evolution did stuff that made the world what it is today.  Belief that energy from the Aether isn’t going to change the skin color of people in other countries.  Buying healing crystals isn’t going to affect space junk building up in the atmosphere, asteroid impacts, or solar flares.

Not directly.  But those same people who think money grows on trees, they have massively misunderstood that this is the new age.  The new age of climate change economic distress.  The new, The Party Is Over Age.  Where dealing with a global virus epidemic is a walk in the park in comparison, economically.

I’ve noticed a distinct lack of American Flag flying where I live.  Either like me embarrassed at how massive numbers of people have allowed rich assholes who obviously have nothing but there own wealth and power to get to this level in stark inequality, or fans of them (still) who subconsciously recognize the Stars and Stripes has replaced the Confederate flag as a symbol of hatred.  This is not communism, conspiracy, welfare queens, immigrants or whatever scapegoats are dreamed up in the future.  It’s reality that no amount of gematria style prediction after the events are over will change.  Wealthy people get that way by deregulation, not paying their bills, and not cleaning up waste products.  Just because you are wrong about the investment Ponzi scheme, your children, everyone’s children, has to put up with what comes.

Gematria Genius Spotted

 

Taking to social media to announce your intelligence is an art form not elevated to its maximum capacity by huge swaths of people.  In the early days of conspiracy theory related gematria it blossomed with the new recruits having found something alien to the “normies”.  Instead of monopolizing the conversation at Friday Night Happy Hours at Joe’s Bar and The Grill Is Still Broken, you can throw out some fancy sounding schlock and get away with being as pretentious as you want.  The mere mention of gematria was cool.  It was hip.  And even if you didn’t wow all the mates in the echo chamber you were at least due an Attaboy!^TM from your cult leader.

That is, unless the plan is to become a cult leader of your own.  You may need to acquire a niche, and learn even more how to sound like an intellectual harass.  You may need to cultivate an entire alternate personality and stick with it.  Now, we aren’t here, yet.  No this one hasn’t yet flooded Bluesky with “interpretation of semantic gematria” lingo.  But this is a great start.  What that means (besides, “Look how smart I am!”), is something like, it’s not just that two words like DINGO = 86 and OOZING = 86, you have to dig in to the etymology and really analyze the connections.  Translation - you need to learn to cherry pick and focus on the hits and ignore the gazillion misses.

But as much as I’ve pretentiously whined about this persona cultivation this isn’t really all about that.  And actually it’s not even talking about analyzing instead of just fucking around and finding two immensely disparate words like dingo and oozing with matching gematria.  After all, instead of analysis we have one number and one word.  187 and echo.  No, gematria requires knowledge of words including their etymology and NUMBERS.  And within the timeline this genius has linked a video of Neil DeGrasse Tyson discussing dividing by 0 and other smart person math stuff.

And has gotten two likes for his efforts.  For proudly announcing 187 is prime when it’s not.

I was a young teenager when I learned the pattern recognition shortcut.  A three digit number, if the middle digit is the sum of the two other digits it’s divisible by 11.  11x17=187.  And for good measure let’s throw in that apparently ECHO doesn’t even equal 187.

Educating the youngsters of today for future leadership tomorrow.  The resume booster.  I told people on social media that 187 is a prime number and got two likes.  Please give me the nuclear codes.

Know Your Fake Debater Tactics - The Motte and Bailey

There’s a relatively famous “debate” that’s been circulating through critical thinking related social media.  Jordan Peterson versus a group of young atheists.

As difficult as it is for me to leave my personal bias against Peterson aside I will let you read his Wikipedia page.  Like a lot of influential high profile figures he’s controversial.  Often this comes off as controversial for the sake of being controversial.  The contrarian personality willing to “tell it like it is”.  Whether it’s because of actual belief in his words or just for money.  Well, that isn’t so important as he, like sports gematria grifters, got caught red handed in using a tried and true fake debate tactic - The motte and bailey fallacy.

This video summarizes exactly what the tactic is as well as use during the aforementioned debate:

https://youtu.be/lrdOamPIRGY?si=T5eT7MmPpjS7jvuV

The real life motte and bailey consists of medieval castle fortification that has a bailey, the fun part of town with all the perks of medieval squalor.  The blacksmiths, the shops, the inns, the massage parlors, the EV charging stations, etc….  You don’t want to ruin the fun in the town part of the castle by constantly having troops monitor your every move and deporting random citizens to a dungeon in Mordor.  So it’s lightly defended.  But when the shit hits the fan and Sauron’s orcs arrive at the walls you’ve got the motte.  It’s the opposite side of the coin.  It’s not much fun at all.  It’s the last resort to stay home and avoid being slaughtered without having to pack up and move to the Shire.  Eventually the orcs who aren’t interested in a full blown siege move on.  Hopefully because of boiling oil being poured on them.  Everyone loves a good castle siege movie with boiling oil.  At least every normal person does.

For Peterson it played out like this.  Pinned down to give a simple answer to a simple question he self assuredly delivered a simple answer.  A confidence born of being knowledgeable by a life of fake debating.  Gish galloping his way through using confusion via big words to claim victory that doesn’t real exist.  The debate bailey is the controversial high profile argument.  “Atheists worship without knowing it.”  When challenged he retreats to the debate motte.  A well practiced changing of the goal posts, or changing the subject of sorts.  The debate motte, whatever form it takes in any debate is an easier argument to defend.  And then the bait and switch happens where the motte and the bailey are conflated to claim the controversial bailey argument is proven by the advancement of the simple and intellectually inferior motte.

If you fancy getting into a debate with an irrational and deliberately deceptive person just for fun you don’t need to start off too high profile.  You can just find a sports gematria aficionado on YouTube and challenge them.  I even posted a video here a little bit ago.  Sports gematria is and always has survived on the premise of gematria having predictive qualities.  Almost all gematria has at least an undertone of predictive ability.  The controversial and fun bailey is the magical ability to make amazing predictions.  The motte is how the game has to be finished for you to find the connections with the gematria.  The only time predictions seem to work is the many times both teams are predicted to win.  The ultimate motte.  If you can pick both teams to win and have it count you will achieve a 100% win rate that is intellectually devoid of any true meaning.

Keep it simple.  Like the time Hubbard got trapped into debating gematria he was presented with his clear bailey.  “Will you make a prediction right now, live on air?”  You can embellish it a bit with some of the easier side dishes to the meat.  “A genuine, in advance prediction with gematria.  No picking both teams as having a supporting narrative.  No conditions.  No backtracking later with a ‘they flipped the script on me.’  Just a genuine, honest actual prediction of an event with some details instead of predicting something that happens everyday like earthquakes.”

That time Hubbard retreated to the motte in record tike.  Like he often does he starts firing off an old collection of greatest hits stories in the past that had nothing to do with making a prediction on the spot.  Whether you can correctly predict something RIGHT NOW and your previous track record are different beasts.  And the main opposition stuck to his guns and wouldn’t let him slide on retreating to the motte.  Alternatively, you can ask him if he genuinely believes making narratives for both teams is legitimately predictive gematria.  When pressed he probably will say yes, because it’s his go to disguise for the scam.  And part of the reason I like the linked video is Peterson’s use of the same argument.  You’re either a Christian or you aren’t.  You can’t be “8/12ths Christian”, an actual quote recorded and emphasized in that video.

Gematria Is No Longer Baseless

 

Buckle up kiddies and check out the lower right hand corner.  Now gematria for conspiracies is no longer baseless, it’s got more base than it can handle.  An entire new dimension of lunacy has opened up, where the mostly consistent global use of base 10 can be ignored and officially you can use Base 12.

The reality is, of course, that someone got a number they didn’t really like and decided to alter it into something more meaningful.  Um…less not meaningful?  Something familiar.  Something recognizable.  Something like 666 the hard way.

Yes, I see the problem.  A screen full of numbers that are almost useless.  Since it’s an entire phrase instead and f just a word or two the results are simply too big to be useful.  Normally the old school grifters would have resorted to Phraseshopping to solve the issue.  Pare it down and get a screenful of new material to cherry pick from.  Drop the first two words and you get WIN PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST=1313.  13 is pretty cool and double 13 is doubly cool.  Drop a couple more words and MIDDLE EAST PEACE=808 in Satanic.  And 808 is always 88 except when it’s not and 88 has been used a lot.  TRUMP=88.  And if you’re ending up using a fairly bullshitty cipher like Primes you certainly shouldn’t shy away from a bullshitty cipher like Satanic.

But, we can actually admire the new direction you’ve taken us.  Baseshopping.  Where now instead of word substitution we resort to number substitution via changing the base.  It’s reasonable to assume that if base 12 counts then any other not base 10 system counts.  Let me do some quick calculations.   Let’s see how many other bases there are.  How about infinite.  You can literally use any positive integer greater than one for a positional numbering system.  Some are just more common than others, like base 16 for computer nerds.  Here’s a calculator that gives you up to base 36 conversions.  Because you don’t get to just change base 10 to another base, you can change it the other way around.  For example base 10 to base 12 changes 666 to 476.  Yet another number you can lay claim counts as being Antichristy other than your new 942.

Now lots of the lower bases will yield weird results like binary will give you a long string like 100101101=301 in base 10.  And the higher bases will start pumping out letters in the results like 666 base 10 is LF in base 31.  For those who want to decode (L)aurence (F)ishburne into being the Antichrist and through in some Matrix pulling references - you’re welcome.  I can already tell you’re triggered by intelligent and articulate black men so knock yourselves out.  And since you’re fond about f spelling out numbers as words to change values for a new screen full of confirmation bias fodder I’m sure you can reinsert LF into the plethora of Gematrinator calculator ciphers and now Laurence is 88 in Satanic and 666 in Reverse Primes.  Of course there are a whole bunch of other unfortunate souls with the same initials.  So good luck figuring out who the actual correct one is.

And this is exactly why instead of any meaningful results you aren’t decoding anything.  You’re reverse engineering the desired result to get the desired fake evidence to justify the result.

Gematria Debunked About Two Weeks Ago

 

Grifters and attention whores (often the same qualities in one shell) love opposites in one respect.  Sometimes beating a simplistic cherry picked topic to death is the way to go.  Here, look at my list of 113 gematria!

 All that stuff can’t be wrong, I have a list that can’t possibly be this long unless it means something like mashed potatoes proving to Richard Dreyfuss that aliens are here!  And on the other side, the vague and obscure to let cognitively dissonant addled brains wander and fill in the blanks on their own.  Because although some of those words and phrases are direct, others like GREEN SCREEN are only “sort of” synonymous.

One of my all time favorite gematria side gigs is to screw around with antonyms and near antonyms.  It’s really a pretty simple process.  And although lots of time has been invested into the BULLSHIT=113 narrative an equal amount of time, or a lot less if you’re as talented as me, can easily produce a list of simple direct antonyms to counter the list.  VERACIOUS = 113.  And since I checked I found out that WITHIN TWO WEEKS does indeed have 666 gematria, but in the oddball Primes cipher.

Well if you’re going to use a cipher that ignores the history of actual gematria and was clearly created in the 21st century, then you’ve opened the door for me to remind everyone that the word Truth itself = 113 in the capitals added (nee Francis Bacon) cipher.

As for being vague, especially when calling out the Antichrist for being all Antichristy and a big meanie, you can’t get much more vague than “within two weeks”.  Granted it does make sense since Trump did vaguely suggest he’d make a decision on whether or not to kick off World War III, “within two weeks”.  Unfortunately, conspiracy theory gematria has beaten to death that lots of other people and things have been Antichristy like Barrack Obama with lots of gematria gymnastics and anything that equals 111 getting supercharged to 666 with the multiply by six cheat code of the Sumerian cipher.  It gets a little tiresome to hear that the Antichrist has been confirmed and this time I mean it, immediately followed by a request for donations.  The next donation request will certainly be, “within two weeks”.  If there’s a competition for the most overused and most likely to be present on a list of multiple gematriots, there’s no doubt the only two serious contenders have been 113 and 666.

People who don’t mind a little lack of coping with their cognitive biases and the ensuing pursuit of making sense of contradictions are finding a lot of solace in knowing their depression and lack of true friends will be resolved, “within two weeks.”  Each day that goes by gets closer and closer to the, “within two weeks”.  And then there will be a news outlet that mentions that at that two week deadline Trump said that.  And therefore there’s a brand new two week time clock.  It’s Groundhog Day for the self flagellating blame everyone but yourself for everything that makes you miserable crowd.  Each day, each hour, each minute, second, and tiny fraction of a second that passes by starts a new, “within two weeks.”

Well, live by the vague source material, and die by the source material.  Wouldn’t it be nice to stop focusing on vague promises about the future?  Like admitting your employer that offers company stock funded by payroll deductions doesn’t really expect to make good on any long term offer of a pension?  Wouldn’t it be nice to have closure now?  Like being able to say, “Why don’t you estimate the stock value now, discount it with the present value of money tables and just give me the signing bonus today instead of me waiting?”

From a gematria standpoint, there is that closure.  No need to wait for that closure.  No thought or effort needs to be invested in Antichrist matters; these have been decided and finalized in the past.  The Antichrist is a done deal and the quest is over, with a nearly opposite phrase to WITHIN TWO WEEKS.  Within the same recently established Primes cipher:

Now go have some time travel paradox cognitive dissonance fun sorting out how two weeks ago the Antichrist appeared, “about two weeks ago” before that.

New Movies!!!

New FAKE movies.  Because that’s what this hyper polarized, politically supercharged, AI infested, grifting world really needs right now.  Just like your dignified retirement or a sensible gematria narrative these movies have approximately zero percent chance of getting made.

Once there’s an intellectual property that has the three main prerequisites met, a sequel, spinoff, or cheap imitation is inevitable.  First, the concept doesn’t need to be brand new, but it at least it had to lay low in the background like a field in fallow.  Next, there has to be a big name star.  The better the actually talent or the biggest asshole off screen the better (think Bill Maher or Tom Cruise.  Yes, Maher isn’t actually that big of a star, but he sure projects like he is). Finally and most importantly - did the original make money?  If no, move on.  If yes, somebody in a boardroom somewhere will green light it.

Now for example, Blade Runner 2049 or Indiana Jones Dial of Destiny.  An explanation for why the hero has visibly aged.  The idea that an IJ movie with a decent script laid low for awhile.  They didn’t succeed, but someone in some boardroom + money = ??!?!??!?  Give it a shot.  Usually a sequel shows up a couple of years after the first, and hopefully your Kevin Sorbo isn’t already washed up.

Original - Runaway

Not every old Tom Selleck movie can have Judy from Lost In Space (Marta Kristen -Terminal Island), but it’s got Kirstie Alley and Gene Simmons.  Tom is a policeman in charge of dealing with robots gone bad.  Instead of what he’s normally used to dealing with - malfunctioning robots, Gene is a very bad person making bad robots for his nefarious purposes.

Updated - Runaway Drones

Tom and Gene are back and since they’re creaking along now they are mentoring young upstarts to take on challenges of the 21st century.  Gene is building drones for political assassination, Tom is trying to develop a protection system of miniature flak guns to shoot down tiny commercial drones.  And throw in eco terrorists who are using drones to drop herbicide on golf courses.

Original - Single White Female

Jennifer Jason Leigh is psycho and obsessed with Bridget Fonda.  Many hijinks ensue, deadly hijinks.

Updated - Single White FEMA 

Cutting costs almost always means underpaid and overworked, so after staffing cuts Bridget resigns in disgust instead of buckling to the dictator’s bad decisions just for the sake of a paycheck.  She actually enjoyed the sense of helping those in need.  Jennifer is the sole employee appointed to staff FEMA during the nastiest hurricane season in U.S. history.  Many hijinks ensue.

——————————————————————

Original - Fire and Ice

A tepid animated good versus evil story with an evil ice queen at odds with a hero and the noble king of Fire Keep.

Updated - Fire and ICE

Climate change bad.  ICE deportations bad.  The original relied on animation to cater to the inner child.  Reality caters to the arbitrary and costly decisions of real life with no adults in the room to talk about sensible solutions.  Produced by and for adults with the IQ of a sponge and attention span that matches.  That’s why the plot revolves around how climate change is a hoax and ICE deportations are supposedly not random excuses to kidnap and incarcerate people that don’t match your skin color standards.

——————————————————————-

Original - Planet Terror

Quentin Tarantino’s double feature homage to grindhouse movies, complete with fake trailers for movies that started as a joke and actually got made.

Updated - Planet Tariff

Donald Trump’s homage to the Smoot-Hawley act, but without Rose McGowan and Bruce Willis.  The penguins on not inhabited by humans islands are pissed and looking for payback.  Danny Trejo is a taco restaurant owner that arms the penguin military with machetes.  The steel for the machetes was slapped with a 2,963,048% tariff, leaving the U.S. without a supply for their own counter machete program.  The penguins kick ass and develop a gas that turns zombies back into real people and give Bruce Willis a new lease on the twilight years of his life.

———————————————————————

Original - Galaxy of Terror

Robert England as not Freddy Krueger.  Weird low budget sci fi at its campy best.

Updated - Galaxy of Tariff

The SETI program, not having produced any tangible  results about if we are alone in the universe is now headed by obvious Trump appointee loyalists.  And in its own dumb way the plan is brilliant.  Can aliens resist the idea of investigating - can Earth humans possibly be that dumb?  When a tariff is placed on all alien life in the galaxy (double for alien penguins) surely that will make them come and make a deal before they…uh…well that’s not important.  What is important is that aliens won’t pay tariffs much the same as no humans on uninhabited islands will pay tariffs.

Original - The Purge (franchise)

Rich people have to bunker indoors during the one night a year that all crime is legal.

Updated - The Binge (prequel franchise)

Explains how history is ignored and how letting gung ho capitalist deregulation with ultra wealthy idiots in charge has worked 0% of the time.  A mix of a tiny bit of fact (like 10 is bigger than 1) with an awful lot of fiction (like in gematria 10=1 if you want it to.)

Original - Doctor Who and the Daleks

Peter Cushing as the Doctor from the long running but now overstayed its welcome (again) TV series.

Updated - Doctor WTF? and the Daleks

Time travel stuff is fun, but thoroughly impractical with all the paradoxes and stuff.  Here, the Daleks master plan is just to wait it out while humans self destruct.  The doctor, in true U.S. Democrat form doesn’t do anything about it.  He simply shows up at times in Earth’s past and utters, “What the fuck?”, hops in his Tardis, and moves on.  Given a soul stirring monologue for the ending is the only real variety.

“What the fuck?  What the actual fuck, Earth?  I mean really, your planet is on fire right now.  Why the fuck did I even bother with you?  Look at all the hints I gave you.  The stories of fascism being bad, genocide being bad, anti intellectualism being bad.  And you decided to make us the worst of what we were and are.  What the actual fuckety fucking fuck you fuckwads.”

Grifting 101 - Putting Your Mouth Where Your Money Is

It’s been awhile, a long while not a short just couple days or weeks while, since we had a good gematria guru with a megaphone interrupt a protest video.  Protests make great source material.  Some other options have included a crime scene so you can mouth off at police, the ever popular solemn ceremony where nobody wants to be verbally abused while laying flowers at a symbolic grave, or just the popular corner of the busiest intersection where you live.  The downside being that, with intent, the core audience is hostile.  But innocent passersby who admire the bravado, maybe they can be swayed by the glib well rehearsed and prepared material of someone who makes bullshit and being an asshole a living.

Now protests, especially like yesterday, that should be golden just based on the math.  By nature protests represent a highly polarized society’s outlet to say, “I’m drawing the line in the sand right here.”  And the counter protesters have the opportunity to show up in numbers to make their side known. 

 I don’t mind saying at this snapshot in time I’m heavily skewed towards the No Kings protests side.  Those that have the misfortune of knowing me in real life can figure it out pretty easily; I have off a lot of warning signs that trigger the other side to try a constant game of one-upmanship.  But, back on topic.  A protest or counter protest.  Isn’t that, with all the masses of people including some whipped up into a gung ho emotionally charged frenzy a great chance to market your beliefs?  The same antigovernment and racially sensitive messages you’ve been blogging and making videos about for a decade.

Hell, yeah.  

You might sell a couple of t-shirts and meet up with someone to do a week long collaboration set of videos with.  (The mutual grift boost in viewership usually doesn’t last much longer than that before the “no honor among thieves” statute takes hold.)

The outrage porn source material is at an all time Doomsday Clock level.  Tariffs are still ruining port of entry statistics, all out war brewing between Iran and Israel, Ukraine still trying to fend off the bigger bullying neighbor instead of having the courtesy of folding immediately, politically motivated assassination in Minnesota.  And all this before the main brunt of what’s expected to be an active hurricane season that has about a zero percent chance of being handled decently.  We really need a megaphone wielding loudmouth to tell us what Caitlin Clark has planned for us.

And true to form, since this time it’s different, there is no physical presence.  No chance to give an indication of if there’s a true point that has told you one side has gone too far.  The blogs still talk about Israel/Iran (the rapture is coming, again), the assassinations were a Skull & Bones ritual (because…112 and various other numbers that aren’t 112 but look superficially close enough including in weird ciphers nobody uses), and the protests (47, a perfectly easily created number that shows up a gazillion times every day), well they happened.

But the really important info.  The most important topic, information that is so top secret, the information that will change your life and let people know where you stand.  That vital clue that shows you were at or wished you could go to the taxpayer funded military parade or a No Kings protest.

The Saturday MLB and NHL picks hidden behind a password.  A password only given to paying Patreon members.

<sigh>

Proper pointing out both sides transgressions is something like real evidence based things with Europe still buying $1 billion a month of Russian oil which funds their war effort while simultaneously providing funding to Ukraine’s war effort.  The point is that it’s more complex and nuanced than anything a two or three digit gematria  number can explain.  Improper pointing out is, “The government is evil, pay for my shitty sports picks”.  It’s really as simple as that.  You don’t have to be a genius to see that there’s lots of stuff wrong that you need to pay someone to tell you about.

Gematria - It’s Still Cool To Be An Asshole

The “I don’t trust This Bust On this male/female” bit at the bottom is a poem on a blog post.  That post also recaps that Caitlyn Clark is a Masonic Name, therefore there’s got to be something shady going on.

At least I have the explanation for the weekly Facebook friend suggestion of Caitlyn Clark accounts.  Multiple different accounts titled “Official Caitlyn Clark”, “Caitlyn Clark Official”, uncapitalized variations, and simply “Caitlyn Clark”.  She is the next target for the campaign of stirring up trouble - the toxic transvestigation cult.

The name transvestigation is catchy, but it’s not really suitable.  Psychologically you would be correct to associate the portmanteau’s pieces to be “transgender investigation”.  There’s neither.  The targets are always not transgender, and since the entire point is to falsely identify the target as the wrong gender there’s certainly not an investigation of any sort.  It’s a done deal.  The entire point, like gematria, is to throw out some sort of fake proof to support that whatever and whomever  you don’t like is not what most (sane) people believe.

I checked through the followers list and strangely nobody else that follows this Bluesky account seems overtly conspiracy minded.  That’s a lot of work for a little bit of attention.  The point of the account is somewhat of a mystery, doggedly slogging through post after post of bad personal poetry including the occasional bigoted topic.  What’s missing is the dedication to it doesn’t generate results.  There’s no financial hook immediately popping up.  There’s hardly any likes on the posts.  No replies by other people.  It seems to be being an asshole just for the sake of being an asshole.

I’m confident in that assessment.  Doing bad gematria to claim someone is a Masonic puppet is a dead giveaway.  And oh yes, that gematria is bad.  It’s classic twist the rules to utilize limited pattern recognition skills of the audience bad.  If 33 is a Masonic number, then CAITLYN or CLARK or CAITLYN CLARK would yield a 33 result.  And since none of those do in the four base ciphers an old trick is used, C=3, the initials are CC.  So instead of 6 like real gematria would say, that’s 3-3, or 33.

Out there in the real world there’s not much use of this right now.  Side A has protests going on.  Side B already is bigoted to an unhealthy degree.  Side A has better evidence than Side B and doesn’t need manufactured fake evidence.  Side B doesn’t care about evidence at all.  That leaves your average bad gematria asshole being left alone with being an asshole.

Know Your Grifter Tactics - Capitalizing On Chaos

Grifters love themselves a bit of chaos.  Correction.  They love a LOT of chaos.  The more chaotic the better.  Even with a somewhat functional government disaster relief and sloppy record keeping are a boon for fraud and abuse.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jul/06/naomi-klein-how-power-profits-from-disaster

Hurricane Katrina for example.  A lot of well intentioned pitching in and rebuilding was hampered by those taking advantage of the turmoil, with alleged cases of people buying bottled water and selling it at way above the normal profit margin.  I like to think that these people watched the Twilight Zone episode about trading gold bars for sips of water on a journey across a hot desert.  $50 for a bottle of water?  That’s the price.  I’ve got the water, you need the water.  Libertarian market driven economics fucking ROCK!!

The way disaster relief is supposed to work is a functional government mat decide to do an analysis of expected disaster relief.  There will be tornadoes.  There will be earthquakes.  There will be hurricanes.  There will be floods.  Tax dollars go into a pot and put into something called a budget, an antiquated concept that works in theory, but not in practice.  (Modern governmental and corporate budgeting now operates on creation of bottom line profit first and reverse engineers it into cutting costs and raising prices to meet that, but that’s an entirely different topic from a literal rainy day emergency fund.)

In a rare, but still half assed bit of prep work, the conspiracy grifters love to engage in the anti science topic of weather warfare.  Personally I find the bit about earthquakes being included as weather warfare, but that’s a regular talking point.  Earthquakes, even significant magnitude earthquakes are a daily occurrence.  And predicting an earthquake is fashionable.  As fashionable as predicting anything else that occurs every day like a two digit gematria.

So for the record, apparently the real big number for hurricane season in the Southern U.S. is supposed to be 34.  At least that’s the placeholder until maybe some early fortuitous matches shift.  Even more than your daily earthquakes, which aren’t weather related, hurricanes are really spectacular.  And really fucking expensive.  And hopping on to my calculator app and factoring in what’s been going on in just the first few months of the new toxic regime I see that we have about a 0% chance of any effective disaster relief during the worst part of hurricane season.  The chaos and expense messes up corporate profits.  That $40 million a year insurance CEO didn’t bribe lobby politicians to actually help out with disaster relief.  And your non internet grifters are ready to jump in with the $50 per bottle of water.  Chaos is king.

Trying to get back on track, the main subject is hurricanes.  It’s not just the frequency, but the intensity.  The oceans have become a teapot that is set on a low boil, constantly putting water vapor in the atmosphere.  Without direction like a mechanical set up of a steam engine driving turbines it chaotically wanders around the atmosphere.  What goes up comes down eventually, and the scale is far larger than your average chemtrail believer is willing to admit.  More correctly put as ever getting to the point of understanding that chemtrails aren’t a real thing and man made climate change does.

The black and white mad scientist movies were a lot of fun.  An independent villain tinkering with powers beyond his control; a lone wolf (other than the loyal hunchback) who would run afoul of some plucky teenagers and some military people with the resources to help put an end to the mad scheme.  The profiteering was at an acceptable level.  Nobody was extremely desperate to buy those overpriced containers of popcorn, Milk Duds and sodas.  Now, with the success of promoting scientific ignorance the mad scientist is working for the government.  Creating earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods.  And they are so good at it they wile away their downtime by creating gematria rituals.  Gematria rituals of two digit numbers like 34 which occur a gazillion times every day regardless of hurricanes, natural or man made.

Hubbard’s video yesterday embraces the assault on the gullibility.  He didn’t name it, but the main talking point was a discussion of government sanctioned weather warfare.  In particular Project Cirrus.

https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hurricane_blog/70th-anniversary-of-the-first-hurricane-seeding-experiment/

And of course he totally ignores that this was an experiment clearly attempted at modifying an existing hurricane, conflating modification of natural weather events with mad scientist cobbling a hurricane out of some test tubes, Tesla coils, and the inevitable loyal hunchback.  Don’t pay your taxes to these evil bastards.  Or you’re gonna get more 34s than you ever bargained for you dumb MF.

There are a lot more efficient ways for a government to create expensive damage and chaos than trying to tinker a hurricane together from scratch in the dungeon of a medieval castle.  And it’s not even armed paramilitary shooting arbitrary scapegoated targets.  It’s what some are actively engaging in now without the full force of an expensive hurricane season in full swing.

They will do nothing.  If you want help, start a Go Fund Me.  Or move in with your kids and get a job that you’ll be laid off from in a couple months since you’re already 75.

Desperate people do desperate and dangerous things.  And we are all along for the wildly chaotic ride.

Know Your Grifter Tactics - Deep Rooted Unseriousness

June 1, 2025 the state of modern warfare was changed.  After several years of keeping themselves afloat with advancements in drone technology, Ukraine uncorked Operation Spiderweb.  Drones, lots of drones…lots of CHEAP drones took out 20-41 Russian bombers (depending on you talk to), representing billions of dollars of equipment at a fraction of the cost invested in to the attacking drones.

The implications for the future are alarming and fortunately mostly beyond the scope of a blog about internet grifting.  Cheap drones with weapons and facial recognition technology and lots and lots of unhappy people across the globe.  What could possibly go wrong?

What we do now is that your typical internet grifter has not altered their deeply unserious attitude.  We’re talking about the kind of grifter that operates in the world of conspiracy theory light.  Your flat earthers, gematria decoders, and chemtrail pointer-outers.  The postdiction crowd said almost nothing about it on their personal blogs and YouTube channels.  I didn’t run a comprehensive check.  It might not be almost nothing - it might actually be virtually nothing.  That would be too embarrassing.  Something that major slipping by without a prediction?  Say it isn’t so! 

 Although since there’s a weird fascination with bridges at least that follow up attack got some press.

That’s cool.  A video about people suffering for lack of knowledge.  Maybe, if you weren’t a pseudo intellectual and actually had knowledge of the way things work you could have mustered up a quick - HOLY SHIT LOOK WHAT HAPPENED IN THE UKRAINE WAR video.  There’s not even a bullshit gematria decode, much less a full scale thoughtful and well reasoned analysis of the implications for the current war and beyond.  Aren’t you supposed to be some sort of influencer?  Some great mind that knows everything and has a billion dollars in the bank that impresses millions of people to follow you?  Didn’t you even take time to find out that DRONE = 56 just like SOCIETY OF JESUS = 56?  Of course in reverse reduction CRICKETS = 56, so that’s not so surprising. 

And what do we get?

The latest news.  A locked sports decode whine to get people to join the Patreon so you can lose money on gambling.

The weird shit in the sky crowd is worse.  Equally silent about some actual weird shit in the sky.  It’s still chemtrails and crappy photography and Niburu.  In the run up to the last U.S. election it was “living” AI about replaced world leaders.  Which is great news for Trump so he can always count on support for his recent Biden is dead and replaced by a robot slur campaign.  Doesn’t do diddly squat for actual AI in cheap drones and the real world implications.

We can be pretty sure that what Ukraine did was not let DUI hire Pete Hegseth know about the operation.  Sorry, had to work that in there, I am a terrible person.  We know they didn’t do gematria decodes to find out that it might be the Jesuits or the Milwaukee Brewers were behind the invention.  Desperate, scared people get innovative.  People with an actual meaningful goal look for the best qualified, not suck up sycophants.  They train educate and make long term plans, instead of parroting what Fox News will say the day after a major event.  They put aside looking at stupid and unserious bullshit in a fight for survival.

Know Your Gematria Grifter - Creating A Decent Story, E978

I suppose I’m nostalgic for the good old days where a story would hit a chord and take off in a watered down version of something going viral.  Back when someone among the top of the pyramid scheme, someone who darn well knew they were concocting a fable, would break out a decode and the bottom would get absorbed into the rabbit hole, all chiming in with little tidbits to add to the initial story.  Like finding the first Pi reference or 33 to gain the coveted Attaboy!^TM from the cult leader.

Having a pretty good grasp of criminal psychology I’m well suited to describing the thought process.  For today’s lesson in how to create a reasonably believable gematria story I’m choosing to use something I’ve never seen before instead of something from the greatest hits album, like Kobe Bryant or the Antichrist.  Keep in mind that this is the mindset of a ringleader and not the gullible flock.

Let’s start with one of my favorite sources.  Rationalwiki random pages.  A sort of encyclopedia of debunking bad ideas.  There’s always the comments sections of conspiracy videos or Fox News talking points for more mainstream sources.  I keep an eye on the links boxed off in the right margin as essentially more random pages to search from.

At first I latched on to the Michael Snyder article and his Economic Collapse blog.  I really don’t want to talk about current events, so I kept searching and then I found it in the orange colored conspiracy box.  E978.  That sure looks like a candidate for bogus gematria.  But what exactly is it and how does it fit into a conspiracy?

It actually is descriptions of legal execution cause of death.  And conspiracy theorists claimed it was endorsement of legal execution.  In particular the completely made up idea that it’s linked to Obamacare.  That’s a great start.  Now before going too far in little details of other non 978 numbers we need at least one big hit.  Something to be the main plot point before character development on the minor players.

And for that we head to the Gematrinator calculator and it’s 6,923,104 different ciphers to choose from.  And lo and behold:

There’s the big one.  The main keyword of execution has a high quality match without the fuss of phraseshopping in similar words like executioner, lethal injection, guillotine or whatever.  But what’s that you say?  1978 isn’t the same as 978?!  Never forget the gematria rule of, “Fuck it, close enough.”  The top number to ignore is by far 0.  A lot of energy has been invested in the 0’s don’t count rule and hypocritically ignoring that when convenient.  The 9-7-8 are in the correct order.  Any other leading digit other than 1 would be pushing your luck.  But 1x978=978 so that’s just fine.

Also keep in mind that while looking at the resulting gematria of E978 there’s 987 in Capitals Mixed.  That might be worthy of a side note.  Or you can let the gullible flick find it and proclaim what a great catch that was.  Or maybe just give your Attaboy!^TM to a sock puppet account if nobody bites.

But we need something else.  Because what does 1978 look like?  Why is 1978 actually a blessing instead of being an exact match?  It looks like a year.  And not even that long ago that it’s ancient history.  Break out your search engine and look up executions in 1978.  Alas not perfect since nobody was legally executed in the U.S. that year.  Those pesky Supreme Court rulings on capital punishment.  But just the mere fact that it’s a year, oh that’s golden.  They love to quote date numerology like it’s gematria when it’s not.  And never underestimate the gruesome nature.  Anything related to death and killing is super cool.  There is a prominent search result for Clarence Dixon murdering Deanna Bowden in 1978.  Two more names to work with.  ASU to work with.  Or you can run with the factoid that Arizona’s execution statute was ruled unconstitutional in 1978.  And don’t forget to tie in some Arizona sports somehow if it becomes convenient.

But don’t overdo anything.  Let the trail of bread crumbs lead to the rabbit hole and lure in the unsuspecting.  As conspiracy theory light its interactive.  It’s a community effort.  It’s a fine balance between presenting yourself as the final authority and leading the flock to believe they are smarter than they are and doing some fake research to massage their egos.

Know Your Grifter Tactics - Prediction Scams Explained In 14 Minutes

 How Prophecy Scams Work YouTube Video

As of this morning the last Gematria Effect Sports video is three week old horse racing fake prediction nonsense.  Our favorite doom and gloomer does have an Antichrist prediction yesterday.  1k views is a common audience size.  Gematria Effect News is active daily, but the views on that are 5k per video being a good day.

Let’s see.  8 billion people, call it 2/3rds potential audience for these <sarcasm font> all important </sarcasm font> life altering messages = 5.28 billion.  5k views is a little less than 0.00001%.  Maybe that’s enough to scrape out a little extra spending cash for a side hustle, but hardly a worthwhile career option.

And I attribute that to things liked the linked video and material here.  You can only cry wolf so many times before you don’t get taken seriously.  A purposeful bad analogy since the boy who cried wolf eventually did meet a real wolf and his bad attitude based on attention seeking ended poorly.  There’s no horse race winner coming to rescue your finances.  There’s no Antichrist yesterday signaling the end of the world “soon”.

1.  Postdiction.  Like waiting for the football game to end before making your gematria matches.

2.  Prophetic performance.

3. Vagueness and ambiguity.  Can you possibly get any more vague than direct antonyms having the same gematria value?

4.  Retrospective Interpretation.  Wait, weren’t there already a bunch of different Antichrists before Obama?!?  So many different ones, it’s very confusing.

5.  Declaring victory when wrong.  I missed that <insert gematriot here> could have meant the Eagles instead of the Patriots.  So I was really right about my rate specific prediction after all.  

6.  Open ended time lines.  Don’t ever pick a date when you can say, “Any time now!”  Or pick both teams.

7. Revise history.  No.  You haven’t picked the Super Bowl winner that often.  You’re actual success rate on all picks is a well documented around 50% number.

8. Playing the odds.  It’s amazing how often those preseason playoff picks align with teams the bookies pick to be dominant.  Then the pick gets “legally” modified to align with actual playoff teams once the regular season is almost over.

9.  Social pressure.  Don’t ever admit you lost a money in front of the crowd you hang with.  Just quietly slip away into the night.

———————————————————————-

Valuable Internet information has been around for a long time, but those that have emphasized NOT educating people have done an awfully good job of protecting the bad information that keeps them in power.  Education became a hook to predict that you would invest money into a valuable skill that would sustain you throughout your life.  Get a good job.  Get married.  Buy a house.  Have kids.  Retire.  All predicted for you that are increasingly a pipe dream.  The lack of real education has extended beyond just not educating.  The people with the intellectual capacity to figure out what’s going on are separated into the categories of those with a conscience and ability to plan for the long term who should be attacked.  Of those without empathy who have sold out to the dark side of exploitation of others just for the irrational belief that money equals intelligence.

Know Your Grifter Tactics - Cherry Picking (Fake) Evidence

This is why yesterday I mentioned that 444 was likely to mean something more spectacular than it does when it’s really no more significant than that 253 in the decode I found on Bluesky this morning.  Those repeated digits are a miniature psychological hook.  It’s 666 without 6’s.  So it’s time to reinforce how unspectacular 1111 and other repeated digits are if you want to think critically about the usage.

One of the first things I checked was if Eleventh Month actually does equal 1111.  Hooray!  It does!  At least it’s not a complete lie.  But the significance opens up a can of worms.  There are 12 months.  If this was so gosh darn important, if this really was secret coding, shouldn’t this logically apply to every month?

Of course it doesn’t.  The only other “hit” is Sixth Month = 66 in some reduction ciphers.  And that’s with a screenful of 31 different ciphers from the Gematrinator calculator.  That is several metric butt tons of misses for a win rate of at best arguably 16.67%.  Sure November is super cool and deserves to be elevated to most important month status, but it’s totally not fair to dis every other month than June for not being as magical.

And my screenshot is from Bluesky’s translate feature as the original post was in German.  German for ELEVENTH MONTH is ELFTER MONAT, which does not equal 1111 in any of the 31 ciphers.  Maybe English is the only language that gematria works in 16.67% months f the time.  Although I think some people that use Hebrew for gematria might have something to say about that.

This is cherry picking at an obvious level.  Making a fuss about that one hit while ignoring how lots of misses build up to the idea you are promoting.

Cheating At Wordle

* Spoiler Alert *

If you haven’t done today’s Wordle and you don’t want it to be ruined, please be warned, the answer follows shortly.  Now that the maybe like the half of one person who statically might be affected, today’s answer is:

GRIFT

Which did bring a smile to my face.

I personally do not cheat at Wordle.  And I know two people that do cheat at it.  There cheating methods differs as different people cheat in different manners.  It’s your approach to the cheating and being honest with yourself about it that says a lot about your character.

I do not cheat at Wordle and I’m fairly proud of it.  My win percentage is a solid 98% with about 400 puzzles solved.  My max streak is 55.  My solved in 3 is slightly higher than solved in 5 guesses.  And naturally as solved in 4 is pretty much par that’s the biggest number.  I’ve never solved in 1 without cheating.  My method doesn’t really allow for more than one, like a lot of people I religiously start with the same first word.  But I do have a solid solved in 2 of 14 with absolutely no cheating.

The one cheater is doing the pointless thing of looking at the hint sites before even attempting to solve it on their own.  They aren’t particularly bright but averagish.  Being aware of the psychology of conspiracism and online grifting has influenced my opinion of them and their Wordle cheating.  The lure of that momentary rush of feeling smarter for just a minute is inescapable.  They’re open about looking for hints.  They aren’t particularly bright neither proudly of it or ashamed of it.  Most of tue time their pride is massaged by the format of the hints.  The hints are organized from subtle, to more forceful, to finally just telling you the answer outright.  Their fun is derived from the satisfaction of jump starting by only looking at the first subtle hint and feeling smarter working from there.

The other, is kinda of frustrating.  One thing I got a lot of growing up is siblings and friends trying to play the “outsmart the smart guy” game.  Being genuinely able to use my brain to solve today’s Wordle in 3 is difficult to handle for a lot of people who have been force fed a steady diet of being made to believe they are smarter than they really are.  This one never, ever admits to the cheating.  They do proudly proclaim about solving in two way more often than could be reasonably expected.  You see, like myself they start with their personal favorite first choice.  For arguments case let’s say that this is SLATE, a great starting word with lots of common letters.  If the Wordle solution is FLUTE, yeah you can understand that the solved in 2 is legit.  But several times the answer is something like PROBE, with just a single letter E in the right spot to go on.

I’m gonna have to call bullshit on that.  In this day and age it’s easy to bring up a list of five letter words that end in E.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/wordfinder/classic/ends/common/5/e/1

And lots of them don’t have any S-L-A-T’s.  BEIGE, BIOME, BOOZE, BROKE.  I’m sure they get a good number correct in three or four guesses, with careful thought and no hints.  I’m also equally sure that when confronted with just a trailing E and nothing else they searched for hints and found out it started with P, had two vowels and no repeat letters they maybe, just maybe stopped short of the word being thrown in their face and still got lucky.

This person is the kind of person that will be a real <sarcasm font> catch </sarcasm font > in a future relationship.  He will be the kind of person that will marry someone for prettiness and then constantly use fakery to dominate the relationship.  The constant one upmanship, the bragging, the need to keep up with the Joneses, the need to get his own way.  The need to become the full blown narcissist he’s been duped into believing that even not getting caught cheating at something as trivial as Wordle is more important than looking dumb for even second.

My response is my lifelong skill and defense mechanism.  I do not talk about Wordle any more.  I have no need to stoke the fires and wait for him to move into “Ivermectin cures Covid” territory.  For now, let him wallow in his seeing the word GRIFT without it even resonating that it’s much more commonly used today as our culture has embraced denying facts and dominating conversation is an admired skill instead of the problematic psychological symptom of something gone wrong that it is.

Know Your Grifter Tactics - Logical Fallacy Soup

And you better make that a soup that doesn’t have any carrots.

War On Carrots

The material that attack video is based on is quite a ride.  There’s so much logically wrong with the arguments it’s difficult to get all of them in.  It’s such a bad concept, it makes gematria look sane in comparison.  For the sake of space I’m just going to point out two of what I think are the biggest blunders.  Maybe I’ll squeeze in a quick reference to others.

So the background, the context, that you might need.  The basic idea is that carrots aren’t food.  They are toxic and dangerous, according to the “scholar” that produced that material.  She has been giving seminars and her financial hook is just that.  A main talking point is VEGETABLES = BAD, MEAT = GOOD.  For flavor and enjoyment I’m on board with the program.  But for budgeting and trying to have something left over for retirement, no way.  Too much damage has been done before the tariff fiasco that we’ve hit that point already that the sane people are even correctly considering a fast food meal a luxury.  Gone are the days a small family could rely on a quick stop at the McDonald’s drive through for a cheap yet filling meal.

Summarizing the reason carrots aren’t food and are bad.  They’ve been genetically modified from Queen Anne’s Lace to become the bright orange bastion of toxicity we know today.  Q.A.L. was used to abort fetuses!  And we’re giving it to children!  Won’t someone think of the children?!?!!!  A terrifying message that you probably weren’t aware of, and of course the reason you weren’t aware of it is because it’s just not true.  A lie, spread by a charismatic and accomplished liar deliberately fiddling with logical fallacies to mask and confuse.  If Hubbard weren’t already spoken for I could see him hooking up with this beauty.

Big Problem #1 

That is aside from the outright lying.  The entire premise about who dangerously toxic carrots are is countered in her own speeches.  No need to debunk, it debunks itself.  The fact that carrots do not kill people by eating them is all the evidence needed to know they don’t kill people and haven’t been killing people.  Q.A.L. is not what was modified to our modern bright orange carrot.  It was the yellow carrots that were selectively bred to get what we have.  Those have been around for thousands of years, and further research among the skeptic circles (this has been a big topic in the smart and sane pro science circles) shows she’s claiming that carrots were modified in the 1800’s.  And think about it, even if it was true, that modern carrots were modified from dangerous Queen Anne’s Lace, they have been modified to become safe.  It’s a non issue.  She’s admitted that carrots aren’t toxic simultaneously while using outrage porn to claim they are.

This is something Hubbard has mastered just by embracing gematria.  Getting away with contradicting yourself.  As soon as you run gematria numbers for a decode you’ve automatically created more contradictory information than ammunition supporting your point of view.  Just for the record:

 

There you go.  The old favorite 113.  Allegedly the number of dishonesty.  And a bonus 444, which looks so cool it MUST mean something.  Of course instead of DISHONEST = 113 and the many various synonyms and evil sounding near synonyms that equal 113 there are plenty of perfectly good 113 = Truth antonyms for those that don’t want to cherry pick their way through life.

Big Problem #2

You remember that 444 and how cool it is?  Every video about gematria from the Zachosphere is an appeal to authority.  Please disregard all the naysayers and those that use gematria for biblical research.  Please just use it to get interested in joining Zach’s Patreon.  Our heroine has as support of her <lack of real> evidence, a documentary about her material.  A documentary that shows proof that she’s not the only one.  Except she is.  It’s a fake documentary with an A.I. generated voice.  More I learned from actual research instead of just taking a ludicrous claim at face value.  Here’s more good info from someone concentrating on all the fallacies:

https://youtu.be/k6g_9xZNdRI?si=xDm1FiWpgv0CPA38

If I make a blog post that says I’m the king of Madagascar I’m logically not allowed to use my blog post as the only source that I’m the king of Madagascar.  Combining this with the ability to be glorified despite contradicting yourself is how you get influencers, cult leaders, and corrupt politicians.  I know this because I heard Kim Kardashian say so.

For the record if you didn’t take the time for those YouTube videos, Queen Anne’s Lace SEEDS were used as a CONTRACEPTIVE.  Not roots aborting fetuses.  Learn to find out who is trustworthy to find a better chance of getting through the next 3^2/3rd years with some finances left.

More Screwing Around With AI Overviews

I expect a big surge in cognitive dissonance related depression.  The most basic and obviously false claims that have spread and gotten traction are not getting a free pass from generative AI overviews.  All the really weird and easily debunked stuff - the vast majority of it generated during a time when pushing extremist right wing views, ultimately for political and economic purposes, the response is NO.

I’m not going to include screen shots for all of these. At this point of this post I’m only thinking of one more. That’s too much time and unnecessary.  From a scientific method point of view, it doesn’t matter so much what *I* think about it.  Anybody should be able to type in the same searches I do and get the same results.  The AI is scraping the internet for its replies and should be giving consistent replies regardless of who is doing the query.

The cognitive dissonance (processing contradictory information) has been bypassed for a long time by the individual scraping the internet on their own.  Encouraged by those higher up on the pyramid to dismiss factual information and accept that the disinformation perspective that has been artificially enhanced by dirty tracks is perfectly acceptable.  Let your own confirmation bias dismiss being wrong about the important stuff.  You’ll be fine.  Wikipedia is wrong.  All the scientists are wrong.  Everyone smarter than you is wrong.  Everyone that built AI LLMs, they’re wrong, too.  The first line of defense to your bad information, a Google search so you can hunt down somebody that is putting out support of your bad idea is met with an AI overview front and center boldly stating that is, “Sorry bucko, you’re wrong.”

One of the early searches was disappointing.  That was, “Will an AI overview be different for conspiracy theorists and scientists?”  That was met with a, “No AI overview is available on this topic.”

“Is Wikipedia reliable?”  There’s a lengthy response acknowledging its strengths and limitations.  In a nutshell, Wikipedia is a great starting point, but you need critical thinking skills to get through deeper topics.  Wikipedia is not going to give you a flat out admission that a false fact is true.  It’s not going to give a flat out rejection of actual facts.  It’s not going to take sides on genuinely debatable subjects.

Now on to the fun stuff.

“How many people are killed by chemtrails each year?”

Summarizing AI overview - Chemtrails aren’t a real thing, so none.

“Was 9/11/2001 an inside job?”

Summary of AI - no, it was al-Qaeda and all the conspiracy theories related to it have been debunked.

“<various searches about Sandy Hook>”

No AI overview.

“How many elementary schools have litter boxes?”

None.  Ever.

“How many pizza parlors are fronts for child trafficking?”

Not a real thing, and it even mentions Pizzagate specifically.  See the screenshot at the top.

“Are Haitian immigrants eating cats and dogs in Springfield?”

No AI overview

“Who won the 2020 U.S. Presidential election.”

Joe Biden

My favorite and worthy of another screenshot.

No long winded speech.  Just one sentence which ends up being in a font way bigger than most AI overviews.

“Do vaccines cause autism?”

Numerous scientific studies have debunked this.

“Were the moon landings fake?”

You get a lengthy recap that includes some of the specific claims to.  Kind of sciency sounding , so a good portion of conspiracists will be turned off and unable to understand.  Do you really expect drunk Uncle Fred to understand laser ranging retro reflectors?

“Is climate change by humans real?”

Oh hell yes.

I take this ending to remind you, that the biggest voices, the overly aggressive loudmouths who talk like everything they s in all caps not only promote some of these ideas, but others that don’t generate an AI overview yet.  They are willing to deliberately be wrong about everything to gain traction on sorting out the most gullible.  Some of these queries were generated from an AI overview of, “What are the easiest conspiracy theories to debunk?”  The only time these easy low level gematria style items are addressed is if someone is promoting a specific con.  Don’t get involved in the gematria scam because I want you to pay my flat earth scam.  These are rabbit hole entry points.  Bait for the current news of not so rigorously addressed content because it’s fresh, but equally stupid.  Things that currently have no AI overview because they haven’t caught on much.  (For example Haitian immigrants eating pets.)

The Zero Click Internet & Gematria

https://www.techspot.com/article/2908-the-zero-click-internet/#google_vignette

In a lot of ways this blog has been for my own amusement.  More often than not, especially these days, seemingly more like training gematria scammers to be better scammers than stopping them.  However, simultaneously the old school gematria scammer content is quite remarkably less popular than the gematria boom in the mid 2010’s.  And I hold the zero click internet business model to be largely responsible for that.

My journey started with a YouTube video recommendation about the zero click internet, and if you haven’t done at least a quick look at the linked reference now would be a good time.  Like this blog that reference is in danger of disappearing.  Now when you do a search the top result is an AI overview of internet content.  Then follows some top references of independent websites that have the most relevance.  And for all practical purposes nobody bothers reading the references, which has been true forever among the misinformation and disinformation crowd.  Doing your own research has always been a confirmation biased shitfest of bad influencers gaming the system to put out bad information for fun, profit, political clout and the occasional nugget of wisdom buried within with a back story of a vapid and insincere message of, “I’m really a good guy, just misunderstood.”

Focusing on the for profit aspect - with intent short term profit is emphasized over long term sustainability.  The same way that family middle class settings are disappearing, small businesses are struggling.  Some fold.  Some (likely extremely few) turn the corner and become big enough to scale up things of benefit to the employees like health care and PTO.  Some merge within better established companies.  But for whatever reason, lack of ability to absorb rising costs within an inflationary death spiral - the days of the American dream and having your own business are disappearing.  The same is happening with search engine optimization.  Who sees your ad is driven by who pays the most directly to Google, not necessarily who is independently linking legitimate resources and their own content be it business or entertainment.  I wouldn’t be surprised if Google gives up completely on Blogger before 2025 has finished.

Short term, I take some consolation in knowing that here I am having gotten somewhere approaching a couple hundred thousand page views and even the scammers using it as a training ground to scam better - I’ve had an impact.  For example, my favorite bullshit gematria number, 113 being DISHONEST when there are clearly lots of perfectly good associations for the opposite, Truth = 113 (Capitals added).  The search results for, What is the significance of 113?:

Nothing in the AI overview about gematria although its cousin Angel Numbers gets a big shout out.  Certainly nothing about 113 indicating dishonesty.  Next, let’s kick it up a notch and specify, “What is the significance of 113 in gematria?:

Real gematria.  Biblical gematria instead of bullshit conspiracy theory gematria.

This blog has always been about the education of what is going on with scam gematria and has never produced even a penny of income.  Consider me the small business that will disappear without ad revenue (Blogger becoming extinct.).  Meanwhile, the fake predictions of sporting events crowd is a medium sized business.  A business model that won’t get any real traffic unless a significantly more amount of time and money gets spent on advertising campaigns.  An outflow of dollars to invest in future traffic that has to overcome the already brutal reality that as far as popularity goes the damage from the early days has been halted.  And think about this, as conspiracy theory light - gematria, flat earth, weird looking clouds, etc…. What are the chances in the future someone is going to heavily invest in that?  Why not just skip right to the point and at least make something a little more lucid like Country A is better than Country B because the immigrants from Country B are terrible people?  Get it all out in the open without putting in wishy washy fluff like a meaningless gematria decode.  That’s your medium sized company that’s next to fall.  Someone who has invested time and money into continuing a business model that will only keep generating less and less return on investment unless the world magically decides that it really is deeply meaningful and someone is willing to put a lot of money on the line for that bet.

The 86 Controversy

https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/05/15/politics/james-comey-instagram-post-donald-trump-uproar

For the first time in what seems forever there’s gematria decoding like the classic Qanon shitfest that infested Twixter during Trump’s first term and the Biden administration.  8647.

Now that number is way too big to be useful straight up, but it is a prime number so maybe someone already has gotten around to that.  And it does have some interesting math stuff.  That’s real math, not gematria math.

https://t5k.org/curios/page.php/8647.html

But as with all gematria that’s not important.  It’s not about the numbers themselves, because any adept gematria calculator user can manipulate any number into the overarching theme.  What is important, and not discussed by your average loony bin dweller is that it’s gematria being conspiracy theory lite.  The entrance to the rabbit hole.  The gateway drug.  The delivery system to give the semi-delusional an excuse to say, in this case, a Qanon message.  As always that is simplest put as Fuck Joe Biden and Donald Trump is God.

Because we’ve known for a long time that there’s a saying that holds true far too often.  Every GOP propaganda accusation is a confession.  Naturally, not only was 8646 meant as Anti-Biden, but you can still buy merchandise with that.  Google search 8646 shirt and you get lots of different shirts still available for purchase.

The hypocrisy is nauseatingly obvious.  Not only is one of the all time worst American Presidents on record that 8647 means *obviously* that assassination is the meaning, not only has the entire right wing ecosystem of propaganda joined in lockstep, but the earlier Anti Biden merch did not mean “assassinate”.  Then it was just anti Joe or impeach Joe.  If Trump truly believed that 86 referred to murdering a politician we should have heard about it as soon as the merch first appeared.  A public statement saying something like, “Although I admire your spirit you have crossed a line.  Please do not promote murdering my political opponents.  Thanks, DJT.”  But did you really expect that from someone content to see the January 6 rioters hang Mike Pence?

No, I do not condone the issuing of this or further 8647 messaging.  It’s not that funny.  It’s only fun if you don’t really have the critical thinking skills to look at the context - the biggest piece of that being the hypocrisy.  If my team does it it’s cool.  If your team does it, it’s bad.  In the meantime enjoy my packed Supreme Court and disregard for law.
