Death by Extraordinary Rendition

Cops jump on new bandwagon, strangulation becomes a fad

This strangler only took five minutes to strangle a citizen-victim to death under custody in Alameda, California, a new favorite lynching technique that suddenly and decidedly has become de rigueur. It’s a staid normal for cops who wish to engage in the same loyal way that Derek Chauvin made popular in Minneapolis, Minnesota. “Death under custody” turns into a race to carve a notch into your pistol. Tune into the channels on the internet where such techniques are sharpened, where action plans are drawn, and where white supremacism turns its weight against undesirable elements, from the dregs of society that threaten to destroy the American Dream. Details are not needed because they might later raise questions that are better left unanswered. Get the job done, get the hell out, and await further extrajudicial orders online and on the street. Beware of teenagers bearing video-capable phones.

Death by custody

Police departments rush to train officers who end up killing people under custody in new startling ways. There are countries where such training is provided, where it is routinely conducted in military-sized groupings, places where the extraordinarily ugly term “extraordinary rendition” keeps extra judiciary torture and ensuing death under confidential gentlemen’s’ agreements. A gentlemen’s agreement to hide evidence under a pile of platitudes is maintained to make society safe for rogue players. These agreements keep the jail cells free for the lesser-desirable incarcerated, for victimless crimes where a crime is defined in the eyes of a lone policeman who receives nods of approval from those who look like him, who were created in the image of Him. Ask no questions and I will tell you no lies. Injustice happens and it happens in the blink of an eye. Suspect dead on suspicion of suspicious activity. Log it and forget it.

This is a thousand lightyears from Mayberry, but it is explained in terms that fit an American myth, a myth that bears no resemblance to a courtroom where decisions have already been made to justify death by custody. The amount of time taken to conduct a custody may range from a number of hours to a number of seconds. The presence of arms in the hands of the presumed criminal requires no details, anything from a cell phone to a pack of cigarettes is enough to bring a cop to enter the following magical incantation that closes the case:

“I feared for my life.”

QUOD ERAT DEMONSTRANDUM.

Justice is molded in the plot of a television program that churns out platitudes sixty words per minute. The cop shows that justify every police action runs from squad car policemen on a beat to the careful doling out of law and order in a justice system set in stone. From TV show to predictable dialog at the cinema that defines reality in white America. Dirty Harry cuts corners, but each corner cut is served to an audience that looks forward to seeing a perfect policeman in action for a justice delivered in chunks that are easy to understand, where it is easy to color within the lines. Just dole out instant justice, Mr. Policeman. Just do it, and do it fast. Make it fit the American Way. Make us feel safe, protected, and served.

Wealth Management Schemes for the already Wealthy

Trickle-up economic schemes shifted into overdrive when the pandemic knocked the chances of advancement out of sight for those who do not control an overwhelming share of the trickling stuff already. Amazon found itself wondering what to do with 90% profits that just kept on coming. Would they direct some of that wealth to the workers who make the whole scheme possible, or should they leave their labor in the lurch? Capitalism is silent on this point.

Boardroom Talk:

“Tough luck, chumps. Thanks for all the cash, we shall endeavor to keep it safe and secure in our coffers. You guys are great.”

My last chat on this blog brought up the topic of Covid schemes perpetrated by men of the cloth. These would be the board directors who must account for the losses that court judgments decide for victims of pedophilia. How to pay off those judgments without inconveniencing Mother Church — that is the question. A scapegoat is identified to satisfy the deity who created those scapegoats in his own image.

When funds run low, the Holy Church must replenish coffers that diminish in size. Fortunately for them, the accountants at the Vatican have learned how to make up for the money that dried up when judges began deciding on behalf of the victims of pedophile collar bearers. Those holy men know that a way can always be found to redirect sums of money into the bank faster than it can be doled out to its many victims. That is the way God wants it, poverty is a virtue. They should be thanking God for every privation.

Billions in Covid Aid Redirected

A principle: You can simultaneously ask for millions from victimized families and also arrive at billions without any additional effort. It is such a crafty business to shunt funds away from those who lost their shirts when Covid arrived to do what it does best: take its victims for a death ride. A death dance perhaps. Rather, seek to benefit Mother Church at every possible point. Obtain tithes from congregants at the same time that priests search for the redirect button. It’s like cashing in on a blessing from God: Covid-19 benefits. God is just, is he not? Poverty is still a virtue, isn’t it? Nuns are assigned the task of instilling a bond of virtue in the poverty-stricken orphans that are dropped off with their nuns by priests who serve the patriarchal control, because Christ’s apostles were all men, it is clear that they may direct the responsibility. Women are carefully assigned subordinate roles because this is the intention of a God who may not be gendered, but he certainly is not of the female gender. That is a mystery of the Faith.

Their Cross to Bear: Catholic Women told to forgive domestic violence

Nuns are still assigned the duty to discipline those poor supplicants who do not adhere to directives from their superiors. Even ones who ruthlessly apply punishments in the task of “Peacekeepers” must be willing to inflict maximum ordeals to keep them in line by any means possible. Arbeit macht frei symbolizes an intention to bring the recalcitrant to a Godly death. The recalcitrants are reminded that their insubordination is a personal decision for which they own the consequences, freely committed sins of disobedience. Nuns and female aides follow the directives passed down by the patriarchy, up to the point of death if necessary. Their reward (the wages of sin) are DEATH, but it is a sacred death that proclaims the Lord’s love for his flock through divine sacrifice. To bludgeon the recalcitrant to death can be viewed as a sacred sacrament.
