North Stoke Life

Looks closely and see about 6 miles away is Didcot Power station, likely to receive a direct hit if a full scale nuclear exchange where ever to take place. I'm standing atop the Chilterns at Nuffield. At this distance I would be largely safe if I shielded myself from the initial few seconds of intense light, say behind a car. I would certainly feel the shock wave which would hit about 20+ seconds later travelling at the speed of sound, but could stand against it if I braced myself.  If the burst were made to hit the ground, which would create a lot of fallout and be an unusual military tactic, I'm at 90 degrees to the typically prevailing wind direction which would take the danger toward the right in this photo. If the wind were travelling in my direction, I'd either need to vacate the area quickly and in the fastest way (calculate the best direction to drive fastest from the cloud, much like the Enola Gay, but for her just to escape the blast, probably about 8 o'clock ...

 

Isn't the so-called woman's movement a tool of the patriarchy? That is to say, women, now in Power or hoping soon to get it, are using that Power to dominate other women mostly. Let alone everybody else.  And some women who like Power are doing it with impunity too - a 'corporate women's meet' is never scrutinised as sexism, which it absolutely is in bold daylight. The so called women's movement is a perfect exposition of abuse of women and men once it found Power. Isn't it true that the women's movement is so angry with the trans movement because the trans movement is now eating the women's movement's lunch right under their noses? The one used to have the Power but are now forced to share the Power with the other, often having much less Power. So yes, it's very much another tool of the patriarchy where women, with new found Power, act psychologically like men. And go on immediately to abuse that new Power, in that act. And abuse women, just...

If you blame wealth and power, you're no longer in control and are under stress like a slave. You will tend to project onto those to whom it most easily sticks if you rely on others to make important decisions for you. Why will you project like this? Because it helps you temporarily to 'escape' from the problems you created for yourself. The best politicians are super at convincing you of this approach in life.  For example, if someone asks you what stocks or assets to invest in, they will never be in control of their decision because somebody else will have decided for them. This will be a difficult to control stress factor for them because it was not them who decided but an authority figure or expert or just somebody else. If they decide in their own right, even if they lose in the end they won't have suffered that stressful slave-like condition where they're not in control. They will be well in the mind still. If they believe what someone else told them to believ...

Everything I cannot see, is just a belief. It may or may not be true. I'll just never know.

In less 'civilised' times, the leader was always chosen out of those who were always found at the front in any battle. As social organisation has developed, leaders have gradually been found more and more at the rear. This is not to blame the leaders. It is to blame social organisation. Which is you and I. So perhaps they should be given protection even at the rear. Then again, if they are such good leaders, why do people want to kill them?

Is a figure on which I can project myself when protecting my dirty little secret. That is to say, when I realise I am the cause of all my problems, I prefer to escape and pin the blame on wealth and power. This is the reason why both democracy and tyranny exist, in principle.
