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.

<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.
