CONTRARIAN AI: Trump's MO is getting an opponent to become so enraged at him that they abandon careful decision-making for pursuing spiteful choices, automatically rejecting anything Trump advocates, and restlessly indulging in whatever they believe will annoy Trump. MAGA is only one-half of the satellites rotating fixatedly around Trump. An all-consuming fetish is a fetish, whether worship or unbridled rage.

VIDEO EXCERPTS: Canada should be expanding trade with the European Union, but by no means should we become a member, an associate member, or anything close to it.
[...] First is the issue of sovereignty. We would have to give up an awful lot of sovereignty to get the kind of access that Mark Carney's talking about. This isn't speculation. This is based on agreements that already exist.
Secondly, right now, we simply don't trade enough. We don't make the kinds of products that the Europeans want to buy. Our major exports are all built for the US. It would take us a long time to pivot in this direction.
And thirdly, the EU economy is not doing well and hasn't been for quite some time. In part due to kinds of regulations we would be subject to if we got what we're looking for.
[...] As I said, there is no associate member status within the European Union, but there are countries that are not full members but have deep trading access, which is what Carney's looking for, beyond a free trade agreement. [...] Well, let me just look at the Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein agreement for a moment.
[...] Are we going to accept that kind of language? Because that's what Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein had to do. The EU wants to control the regulations around products, around the environment, around consumer protection, around privacy. And some of those changes, if we were to accept European regulations, might be good. But some of them would be bad.
Either way, it's not our decision. It'll be made in Brussels. It'll be made in Strasbourg. From one of the agreements on the EU website, the same rules and conditions apply to all businesses within the EEA. That's the grouping of the EU and these other countries. EU legislation relating to the internal market is part of an EEA's countries' legislation.
The EU is the final arbiter of legislation, the final arbiter of regulation. They make the decisions. That's part of why Britain left the EU. Brexit was driven in part by crazy EU regulations. They wanted to get rid of fast-boiling kettles, and the British love their tea. They wanted to make all kinds of regulations that the British people said, "No, we're not in favor of that. We're in favor of free trade, but we don't want you regulating every part of our lives."
What level of integration is Mark Carney willing to give up? We don't know. He hasn't informed the Canadian public. He definitely hasn't informed Parliament, which hasn't sat in getting close to 100 days now, and won't sit until next week after he's already made his announced deals in Strasbourg at the European Parliament. He's speaking to the European Parliament about this before speaking to our own. On no planet does that make sense.
I know what the polling says. Mark Carney is at almost 50% according to the latest poll. That's driven in part because he's fighting Donald Trump. I know other polling is out. It shows 49% of Canadians want Canada to become a full EU member. Yeah. Let's ensure our sovereignty by giving it all up to Brussels. Makes no sense, but Canadian media is always telling you how bad the United States is and how great the EU is. So, no wonder that's kind of the thinking that we have.
80% of Canadians believe we should draw closer to Europe. Yes, but not this close. What? I don't want to get married to Europe. We are not Europe. But it's only going to help Carney's polling, and he's going to be going up as a result of this. But is it the right direction? I'm going to be the one on the outside saying, "No." I know it's not a popular view, but this is not the direction that Canada should be taking. It's going to be the popular one, but it's not the well-informed one.

Short answer:
In Nostradamus lore, the Great Genius is a future figure described in later interpretations of the prophecies—not in Nostradamus’s own text—who is said to create inventions that dramatically help humanity. These inventions are not listed explicitly in Nostradamus’s quatrains; they come from modern interpretive works that expand on vague passages.
Below is a structured, evidence‑based breakdown of what the sources actually say.
? What Nostradamus actually wrote
Nostradamus’s quatrains do not name any inventions. They describe symbolic scenes, astrological imagery, and cryptic events. The idea of a “Great Genius” comes from later interpreters, not Nostradamus himself.
The quatrains cited in these interpretations (e.g., IV‑14, IV‑31, III‑94) contain no technological descriptions.
? What modern interpreters claim about the Great Genius
According to the interpretive source you’re referencing, the Great Genius is:

INTRO: The UK faces having no migrant returns deal with any EU nation after its one-in-one out deal with France expires in two weeks time and the bloc moves to tighten its own borders.
France had suggested the “one in, one out” migrant deal with Britain could become a Europe-wide agreement. But it is facing resistance to this idea from other EU governments wary of taking responsibility for Channel crossings, officials have warned.
Paris wants the bilateral scheme, under which Britain can return small-boat arrivals to France in exchange for accepting asylum seekers through legal routes, replaced by an agreement between Britain and the entire EU. Laurent Nuñez, the French interior minister, has argued that France should not shoulder the burden alone and has told Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood that the pilot scheme was not intended to continue beyond October 1.
But France’s proposal is set to run into headwinds in Brussels, particularly from southern European countries that already receive large numbers of migrants entering the EU.
France had long argued that the Channel was a European problem because many of those reaching northern France had previously travelled through countries including Germany, Italy and Spain. However, other governments see the priorities differently.
‘“There is an increasing group of countries that believe that the focus of Europe should not be on doing one-on-one agreements,” a senior EU official said. “It should be on stemming the flow into Europe.”
An EU-wide redistribution arrangement would be a “hard sell” to countries including Italy, Spain, Germany and Poland, the official added.
An EU member state source said: “I don’t see this happening anytime soon because the focus of many EU countries is on implementing our own EU migration pact, agreed before summer. “There is no apetite to start something new, that has no immediate political advantage in the EU countries.” (MORE - details)
CONTRARIAN AI: Socioeconomic oppression is eternal because there are so many political parties, movements, and do-gooder industries or endeavors that depend upon it never being solved. The UK is more devout about welfare and DEI remedies than the United States, and yet decade after decade there is likewise this repeated journalistic propaganda and psychological conditioning of the population that "social injustice is still rampant." In actuality, the establishment keeps raising the bar for what counts as oppression, so that even though people back in the 1930s might consider this future to be an astounding improvement, the current judgement is that it's still the same as back then or even the 19th-century.

Britons say progress on racial inequality has gone backwards according to new study
https://www.voice-online.co.uk/news/uk-n...new-study/
INTRO: A major new study reflecting ethnic minority and white majority experience recently published finds many Britons across the country feel discrimination is common in everyday life while inequality in the country is ‘getting worse’.
The report by think tank British Future, Race and fairness in fractious times: Public priorities for racial equity, reveals that people of all backgrounds agree that Britain is losing ground on racial equality but there are disagreements about the causes and patterns of inequality.
Nearly half of White respondents (48%) and ethnic minority respondents (44%) believe racial equality is getting worse rather than better, while 6 in 10 ethnic minority Britons say racial discrimination is common in everyday life.
Sunder Katwala, Director of British Future said: “Most ethnic minorities in Britain feel there was positive change against racism in our lifetimes yet now fear that progress being reversed. It is important that Andy Burnham’s government responds.
“It will be more difficult to do that effectively in these polarised times if leaders do not push back and counter the sense of a zero-sum contest over race equality: that fairness for ethnic minorities comes at the expense of the white majority, or vice versa.
“The antidote to that is to pursue a broad and proactive fairness agenda- with the confidence and tools to tackle racism and discrimination where it is most needed.” (MORE - details)
"The source of astonishment and amazement, involvement and detachment, is the same for both the philosopher and the mad. The philosopher, however, knows how to address such questions in a socially acceptable and conventionally restricted manner. For a mad person, these profound questions can completely derail and dominate their life. They can draw that person into what, for others, are the invisible, obscure depths of madness.
Accepted concepts about how things vanish in madness, and the mad end up in a groundless world, an abyss, an Ungrund. This is in an existence where trees that have been uprooted grow into the heavens and where there are no boundaries — no “containment,” as psychoanalysts would call it. The mad become estranged from the world, perplexed by existential emptiness and fullness happening at the same time. The mad encounter questions of vital importance, whether they want to or not: What is life? What is good and evil? Where does time go?"--- https://thereader.mitpress.mit.edu/is-ma...-practice/
Brandishing a knife around a school, refusing to drop it. Suffering from schizophrenia, so probably hearing other commanding voices besides that of the police officer warning him. Or maybe he thought the latter was one of the internal articulations, too. Conscious after being shot and even smiling, joking, and laughing about it. (Thus, a matter of "fitness", too.)

Why Piddington village, with 350 residents, is holding a referendum to leave the UK
https://www.theweek.in/news/world/2026/0...he-uk.html
About 350 residents of a small village in the UK are holding a symbolic referendum on whether they should remain part of the country.
The people in Piddington, located in Oxfordshire, England, are conducting the poll after the Labour Party decided to repurpose a military camp at “Site A” near the village to house about 1,256 asylum seekers, all of them male.
The men moving in would mean that the women in Piddington would be outnumbered ten to one by immigrants. Site A is located between Piddington and Upper and Lower Arcott. The government's decision gained widespread criticism.
The women in the village had penned an open letter to every female MP in the country saying that their “safety, security and freedoms were under threat”.
Melise Witkin, 59, told the Daily Mail, 'We are 356 people in the village with 46 children and 1,250 men turning up is a recipe for disaster. People walk their dogs, children play; I just think it is madness.”
'It is not such a rich or poor village. I just don't think that is a conversation to be had. This is about safety,” she said
Many female residents expressed fears which prompted the village to introduce private security patrols. Some even joined self-defence classes, the Daily Mail reported. According to local leaders, the site is unsuited for an influx of people in the numbers.
The accommodation being prepared consists of temporary mining camp dorms powered by diesel generators. Water and sewage will have to be transported by truck. The village leaders have also gained the support of the opposition, the Conservative Reform UK party.
The parish council and its residents already held a preparatory vote on July 4, which gained 96 per cent support. They are now moving for the independence referendum. The initiative was made to grab the attention of the Westminster government.
The symbolic referendum also comes amid Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales signing a memorandum of understanding warning that the Westminster authority over the three devolved governments was weakening. All three governments, however, cannot hold a referendum unless it is approved by the UK government. The memorandum helps the three countries coordinate their demands and put pressure on the Andy Burnham government.
