Can you imagine that my attitude towards the often reported as, “nearly 1.8 billion dollar slush fund” is one of not being a fan? It’s not just the reasons that Raskin lists in that article. The mere choice of the amount, that’s a gematria-style dog whistle. A familiar number so that self styled “patriots” who are actually criminals have something to latch on to. The 250th birthday of the United States should be cause for celebration, not mired in constant economic bad news, broken alliances cause by deserved lack of trust in the U.S., massive protests, and constant embarrassments.
And somehow, me wanting alleged adults to talk about housing prices and crypto scams and AI bubbles and out of control gambling…I’m the bad person. There are some words that I’m trying to remember that I wonder if I’ve said here before. Oh yeah, I remember. Fuck You.
Life would be so much simpler for me if something like Ground News existed 10 years ago and was given serious attention. It’s extremely frustrating to see what was going on in the world of one Alex Jones. Make up stupid stuff, get paid for it.
1776 is actually an awesome gematria talking point. Like I said, for fake patriots it’s a great number. It just jumps out and grabs the attention. Hot dogs, apple pie, 1776, big ass pick up truck you can’t afford the insurance on. ‘Murica.
Normally 1776 is way outside the useful range of numbers for a believable gematria decode. But it has three distinct advantages that help shave it down to manageable size and tickle the happy chemicals in the brain. First, there’s the super convenient fact that when divided by two you get 888. That number has some history within conspiracy gematria. Any triple digit number has a history within conspiracy gematria. 666, 111, 777, 888. That’s positive reinforcement to the unaware. Look at how cool this number is - three of the same digit!!!! Second, there’s this Sumerian cipher cheat code. It’s really just 148x6 which from a math point means that any value of 148 is instantly elevated in status to 888. And finally, 148 absolutely is in the useful range for a short phrase.
Combine that with how Donald J. Trump just happens to equal 148, joy of joys. Instant decode starter material. Once you’ve established short phrases and some long words equal 148, time to start the bullshit. Stay consistent with your theme. Frame it is a positive, add RIGHTEOUS GOD=148/888 to Donald and DONALD J TRUMP RIGHTEOUS GOD = 1776. It’s magic! Or do what I did, find how CRIMINAL PAYOFF=148/888 and DONALD J. TRUMP CRIMINAL PAYOFF sure sounds like a fitting decode for the 1776 payoff that an insurrectionist would just love to be part of. You can fart around on your own, or even use the Gematrix website for some easy 148/888s.
As with the top linked (and slanted) article above, there’s no legal or rational reason for the amount. There’s no calculation to justify why that’s the correct amount for the fund. It’s all vibes and emotion designed to capitalize on knee jerk confirmation bias lack of critical thinking.
However, beware the effect of Ground News and content creators savvy on fake debaters like Zach and Charlie Kirk. The new wave of young intellectuals fighting back with logic, reason, and dealing with people that really aren’t able to do anything but dig their own grave further. Here’s Dean Withers showing the double standard of how liberal with a gun = bad, but Kyle Rittenhouse with a gun is just fine because he’s on my team:

Adam Mockler is another good, consistent critic that’s not afraid to take on Fox News pundits who relied on emotion above reason for years.
What’s left of the old school gematria crowd. Well, they pretty much stick to sports and gambling. Too afraid to take on someone who can effectively fight back and unwilling to slant to one side or the other now that there’s massive backlash to the MAGA material. I’ve checked regularly on YouTube since the 1776 criminal payoff fund was established. And changing the search filter to “gematria 1776” for the last month - pretty much nothing. The projection is still heavy in the air. The weather vanes are projecting aloofness and distance for damage control, too scared to even try to make material that might funnel views to Kalshi or Polymarket insider information scamming. Which is an entirely different story that I might get around to some day, but probably not.
