The 2020 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony Pt.3

To be read as a direct continuation of Part 2; https://watchitdie.blogspot.com/2021/07/the-2020-summer-olympics-opening_26.html

As Arisa Tsubata sat there, head-in-hands. Heartbroken.

The arena floor was taken over by particle-like performers/dancers. All waving string-like red ribbons.

The Ancient Greek Philosopher Plato believed that all humans have a Soul. Something physically located within their body. That Soul is made up of different parts. Located in different parts of the body.

Plato believed that the part of the Soul made up of emotions - the Spirit - was located in the heart. These emotions would cause the Spirit and therefore the heart to either warm up or cool down. Hence phrases such as; "Cold-hearted."

The most powerful emotion of the Spirit is Love. Both Romantic and Platonic. 

The Ancient Greek Philosopher Aristotle studied under Plato. He accepted the notion of the Soul, the Spirit and the Spirit's location in the heart.

Aristotle further determined that the heart is physically made of sinews and fibres. Working through dissection. Cutting into corpses to look at their hearts. Aristotle was not wrong in this observation.

However Aristotle went on to theorize. That these sinews and fibres; "Heartstrings." Not only held the heart in place. They are also how the emotions of the Spirit are manipulated and influenced.

Both Plato and Aristotle were contemporaries of Hippocrates. Considered to be the father of modern medicine.

As their work was written down it was able to be widely shared. Meaning it became known and accepted globally. 

As other physicians and philosophers looked at Aristotle's theories. Then confirmed them by carrying dissection of their own.

Therefore the connection between the heart and love is so universal. That I almost feel that I don't need to point it out. It's already the first thing that everybody automatically thinks of.

The concept of; "Heartstrings" is also almost as universally used as a metaphor in music and art.

Just of the top of my I head I can think of "Stepstone" by Woody Guthrie. As did Switzerland's 2021 Eurovision Song Contest entry; "Yout I'Universe (The Whole Universe)" by Gjon's Tears.

If you Google the term; "Heartstrings." Then just the first page of results reveals a lot of Korean folk music. Along with the 2011 South Korean TV show; "Heartstrings (You've Fallen For Me)."

One of the main results though is the US TV show; "Dolly Parton's Heartstrings." The 2019/20 Netflix show executive produced and starring Dolly Parton.

Dolly Parton is Miley Cyrus' Godmother. In the Christian tradition the person charged with looking out for Miley Cyrus' Spiritual wellbeing.

As one of the first giants on whose shoulders were stood. Aristotle was wrong about many things to do with the human heart. Many of his observations are now considered superficial, lacking in detail and depth.

However Aristotle was not wrong about the heart being made of strings. Sinews and the fibrous tissue we now call; "Muscles."

The fibres of those muscles are all made up of individual strings. Rather like a woven fabric. Each of those individual strings are made up of tiny particles.

String Theorists consider each of those sub-atomic, quantum particles to themselves to be made up of strings. Quantum Field Theorists consider all of those quantum strings to be interlinked in a universal, invisible field or web.

The 2020 Summer Olympics were almost immediately preceded by the Euro2020 Football tournament. 

The opening of Euro2020 was rather overshadowed. By the sudden, but thankfully short-lived, death of Denmark's Christian Eriksen. During a match, live on global TV.

It seems that Christian Eriksen suffered from a heart condition known as; "Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS)." Although more common than you would think this is a rather rare condition. 

SADS is also extremely sudden in its onset. Meaning that often by the time you know it is happening. Then you are left with a corpse to dissect. Rather than a patient to treat.

As a result its causes are not well understood. However one of the current leading theories is that it is caused by an issue with sub-atomic particles within the heart.

Amongst the tiny particles that make up the heart muscle there are a class of chemicals known as; "Salts." Suspended in water, as they are within the human body, they're known as; "Electrolytes." 

In that Electrolyte state these Salts are able to transmit an electrical charge between them. Using their sub-atomic electron particles. "Ionic Current."

In SADS those Salts suddenly stop transmitting an electrical charge via their electrons. Or they start transmitting that Ionic Current in the wrong direction.

The reason why that happens is currently described as; "Idiopathic." As in; "We're idiots for not yet knowing what the reason is."

However it is theoretically possible that SADS is a condition that could be caused by changes in the Quantum Field. Although, at this point, it is currently only a theory that the Quantum Field even exists.

Whatever the reason. Christian Eriksen's very high profile brush with SADS came at a particularly timely moment.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The human race seems to have collectively forgotten that universal, Buddhist truth. That age, sickness and death are the inevitable fates of all life.

As the Mary Elizabeth Fry poem; "Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep" put it. To be alive is to be surrounded by death. It is the air that you breathe, the rain that falls, the soil on which you stand.

However listening to the all the talk of; "Zero Covid!" and; "Zero Deaths!" You would think that 2020 was the first year in which any human had ever died. 

Prior to that we were apparently all immortal. The likes of Socrates, Aristotle and Hippocrates were still walking amongst us at some 2,500 years old.

SADS is one of those conditions that reminds us.

That you could be a person in peak fitness. With every aspect of your health being closely monitored by the best Doctors money can buy. Particularly those provided by the people who paid your US$22million transfer fee.

Yet you can still suddenly just drop dead. For no good, explicable reason.

All the muscles in the human body are made up of the same fibrous structure of the heart. Including the multitude of muscles that will be used and abused by athletes throughout these games.

However as the particle-like performers. With their red string-like ribbons flowed out across the arena.

They gave proceedings a sense of Menstrual red. The same Menstrual red of Shakira and Jennifer Lopez's 2020 Super Bowl performance. 

I have to confess that Japanese social attitudes to menstruation is not a topic I am at all knowledgeable about.

However I do know that Japanese society is very polite and deferential.

I think most people are familiar with the concept of regional accents. How people from different parts of the same country can speak the same language very differently.

Japanese has societal and hierarchical accents. You are expected to adopt not only different words but an entirely different tone of speech. Depending on whom you are talking to.

For example if you are speaking to a superior or a junior within the workplace. If you were speaking to a waiter in a restaurant. Even how an adult child would talk to their parents and grandparents.

This goes beyond simply using your best manners. It almost constitutes an entirely different language.

So while it may be discussed between husbands and wives. Parents and children. I think it is unlikely that menstruation is spoken about in public in Japan. Certainly not within the workplace.

So making the topic a talking point here supports the recurring theme of improving rights for women in Japan.

Hopefully the start of a discussion which challenges long-held notions. Such as that women are biologically determined to stay home and raise children. 

That there is no point employing women because they'll get pregnant and quit. Or their hysterical Ovaries leave them too emotional to be trusted with important decisions.

At this point I'm getting sick of talking about Miley Cyrus. As opposed to talking to Miley Cyrus.

However Miley Cyrus was central to America's big bold move this year. The thing that would dazzle us with their brilliance. Forcing us to drop to our knees in worship of the new saviour, Joe Biden.

Obviously America's big bold move failed to launch.

Rather than us dropping to our knees in awe. It was America that went slamming face first into the pavement. 

In the sort of faceplant that would embarrass even the worst Olympic Skateboarder.

It's always been more of a talking point about what sort of Learning Impairment/Mental Illness America must be suffering from. To ever think that it was going to work.

Some seven months in now. That discussion has really morphed into what sort of Learning Impairment/Mental Illness America must be suffering from. To still not notice that it hasn't worked.

Although America's big bold move has achieved absolutely nothing it set out to. 

They expended so much effort on it, over such a long period. That it's almost impossible not to discuss it here.

Particularly in a year to 18 months which haven't exactly been overburdened with things to talk about.

At around 17:30 on 29/7/21 (UK date). I'll attempt to pick up that discussion after dinner. 

Edited at around 19:45 on 29/7/21 (UK date) to copy & paste;

Rather proving what an idiot Miley Cyrus has been. For not only allowing herself to be associated with, but also be an enthusiastic participant in, this embarrassment.

A large part of the America's big bold move. Has been to try and get us all to take an unhealthy interest in Miley Cyrus' menstrual cycle.

On one level. I think this was an attempt to be the 2021 version of the so-called; "Rihanna Effect."

When, in 2013, the US tried to convince us that Climate Change wasn't caused by Greenhouse Gas (ghg) emissions. But by Rihanna's mood swings during her Diamonds World Tour (DWT).

I think America seriously believed. That we'd all start looking for something like a connection between Miley Cyrus' menstrual cramps and earthquakes.

Rather like the 8.2 that seems to have tried to shake some much needed sense into the US State of Alaska this morning.

On another level. There are obviously different attitudes towards menstruation globally.

Intended as the first act of an Olympic year. Shakira and Jennifer Lopez's 2020 Super Bowl performance took a more global perspective than the Super Bowl typically does.

For example it touched on the three-way conflict between Pakistan, India and China over Kashmir. A reference to India's August 2019 scrapping of the special status granted to Indian administered Kashmir. 

A lot of the coverage of the crisis that decision triggered focused on how it affected Indian Muslim women. Specifically their ability to access menstrual hygiene products.

Some rural Indian Hindus still practice "Chhuapadi" which declares menstruating women to be unclean. Banishing them from villages to spend a week in isolation in menstruation huts.

Although more East African than Pakistani. Islam also has a rather intolerant attitude towards women, their genitals and reproductive systems. With some still engaging in Female Genital Mutilation (FGM).

One of America's big focuses this year has been the planned withdrawal from Afghanistan. By September 11th 2021 (11/9/21). 

The day before the 20th anniversary of my rather impressive first day at work. September 12th 2001 (12/9/01).

Again. Afghan societal attitudes towards menstruation is not a topic I am at all knowledgeable in.

However Afghanistan is a tribal based Muslim society. Where the Taliban are certainly not famed for their enlightened attitude towards women's rights. It also not a particularly well educated nation.

America was clearly hoping that discussion of Miley Cyrus' menstrual cycle. Would so shock and disgust those backwards Afghans. That they would be dazzled by America's brilliance and drop to their knees in worship of the new saviour, Joe Biden.

Obviously as a nation Afghanistan may be significantly below the educational level of a typical western nation. However even on the Taliban side the people in charge are intelligent men (and some women) of science and reading.

So while Miley Cyrus' menstrual cycle is unlikely to be even Miley Cyrus' favourite topic of conversation. It is highly unlikely that anyone at the level of national government is going to be shocked or mystified by the fact that women menstruate.

It really betrays the delusional level of optimism in which America has been operating under. That they seemed desperate for me to demand some sort of payment from Billy Ray Cyrus. To take on the growing disaster area that is his daughter.

As if it is Afghans, rather than Americans, who would struggle with the concept of a dowry.

The other large part of America's big bold move. Has been to put about the rumour that Miley Cyrus may be bisexual.

Amongst that tiny group of weirdoes. Who have any interest in nonsense concepts like; "Gender Fluidity" or self-selecting gender pronouns.

Bisexual people have become particularly fetishised of late. They being people who are equally attracted to people of both genders.

Here in the interest in Miley Cyrus' menstrual cycle was supposed to lay the groundwork. For the US Women's football team. 

At this Olympics they are using the Fitrwomen App to measure their menstrual cycles. To gather data on the issue of why women are more susceptible to Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tears.

As has already been discussed. Alongside Canada and New Zealand America is part of that small group of really slow nations. Who still think the Transgender athletes are a current topic of Olympic discussion. 

Even before the Opening Ceremony game day had arrived for the US Women's football team. They were nowhere near ready.

It was almost as if no groundwork had been laid. As if their efforts had failed to launch. Slamming face first into the concrete.

At around 20:00 on 29/7/21 (UK date) I'll continue this tomorrow.

Edited at around 16:15 on 30/7/21 (UK date) to copy & paste;

One of the most appalling elements of America's big bold move. Certainly from an Asian perspective.

Was the March 16th 2021 (16/3/21) Atlanta Spa Shootings. Something Fox News dubbed the; "Atlanta Blood Bath."

This saw a 21 year old White man launch a gun attack against three Spas/Massage Parlours/Brothels in Atlanta in the US State of Georgia. Killing 8 and injuring 1.

The attack coincided with alleged US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken taking a diplomatic tour of Asia. 

Taking in Japan, South Korea and then China. At a summit held in the relatively neutral territory of the US State of Alaska.

Due to the time difference the attack occurred as Blinken was meeting with the Japanese (Chief) Minister of Foreign Affairs Toshimitsu Motegi. In Tokyo, Japan.

The initial reports that began to emerge from Atlanta were that Asian people had been the targets of the attack. The casualties included foreign nationals. 

However no details were immediately available as to which type of Asians. Or what foreign nations.

This put pressure on the Embassies of really all Asian nations to the US. To find out if their citizens were amongst the casualties.

It particular pressure on Foreign Minister Motegi. To ask the person passing himself off as his American counterpart directly for details of the incident.

It later emerged that not Japanese nationals were killed or injured. However four of the dead were ethnically Korean. While one was a South Korean citizen.

This information emerged just in time. For Blinken to meet with the South Korean (Chief) Foreign Minister Chung Eui-jong in Seoul, South Korea.

This put huge pressure on Foreign Minister Chung. Not to punch Blinken full in the face.

The attacker claims that he suffered from sex addiction. Which conflicted with his Christian faith. So he targeted Asian women to remove the temptation for him to sin.  

This led to a lot of discussion about the way that Asian women are sexually fetishised. Particularly by White, western men.

That was an issue that came up at the 2018 Winter Olympics, held in South Korea. I remember because it was something of a challenge for me to deal with.

As part of the recent western #MeToo/#TimesUp Feminist campaigns. The issue of; "Mansplaining" was raised. 

This is when a man patronisingly attempts to explain a topic to a woman. A woman who is much better qualified in and has a much better understanding of the topic.

This is how I felt. Suddenly having to try to explain how Asian women are sexually fetishised. To millions of Asian women, who were probably well aware of the issue.

I also started tying up myself up into knots. Trying to explain how there's nothing weird about finding some Asian women attractive. Just as there's nothing wrong with finding some Asian women unattractive.

The issue with the fetish is the finding all Asian women attractive. 

For no other reason than the fact that they are Asian. Reducing them to,  not just their physical appearance, but a very narrow aspect of their physical appearance.

As Miley Cyrus is learning. From her attempts to shock me. I'm certainly more open minded then most on this sort of topic.

So have absolutely no problem discussing such topics, often in very graphic detail, socially. Amongst trusted friends and sexual partners. Even with my lesbian mothers.

However it's not something I feel the need to discuss with my mechanic, my accountant, the person who works in the supermarket. Or in any other professional setting.

I think that in any workplace. If there's always that one person who keeps trying to turn the conversation to sex. What their sexual preferences are and what your sexual preferences might be. 

Then, pretty quickly. You're going to report them for sexual harassment and contributing to an unprofessional workplace.

Sex work is also a very contentious issue within Japanese/South Korean relations.

During the Second World War Imperial Japan occupied the Korean Peninsula. They recruited large numbers of Korean women to work as prostitutes, serving Japanese soldiers. Known as; "Comfort Women."

The extent to which this was involuntary is extremely disputed. Simply mentioning the topic is often a good way to start a fight.

This was also a period when Miley Cyrus was menstruating. From March 14th (14/3/21) through to March 18th (18/3/21). Details that were shared in an effort to get us all far too interested in Miley Cyrus' menstrual cycle.

This section of the Opening Ceremony has been attempting to start a wider discussion within Japanese society. About menstruation and women's rights within the workplace more widely.

So I'm certainly not saying that discussion of menstruation should ever be completely banned in the workplace.

However. If the job at hand is security policy. Then the conversation should really focus on security policy.

In fact that seems to be one of the main points in the wider discussion. That women can be menstruating yet still focus on complex issues such as security policy.

Through the Atlanta Spa Shootings America was firstly killing South Korean citizens. It was also trying to create an extremely unprofessional workplace in its meetings with the Japanese and South Korean governments.

So that the Japanese and South Korean governments would be so dazzled by America's brilliance. That they would drop to their knees in worship of the new saviour, Joe Biden.

Joe Biden seems to be suffering under two very serious misapprehensions.

The first being that he is a President.

The second being that he is going to pick up where he left off as Vice President. Imposing the; "Pivot Towards the Pacific" policy.

The Pivot Towards the Pacific policy was deeply unpopular across the Asia-Pacific region. Particularly amongst America's allies in the Asia-Pacific. Led by Japan and South Korea.

This is another recurring theme of the Opening Ceremony.

It comes up whenever the Second World War, the Japanese Self Defence Forces (SDF) or Boats/Ships are referenced.

So everything to do with the Protocol Stage, then.

Borrowing heavily from the 2018 Winter Olympic ceremonies. Produced and performed by South Korea. The position seems to be;

Japan and South Korea are united on Asia-Pacific security issues. Such as North Korea and China.

It is America that needs to get over the notion that it is entitled to opinions. Let alone ideas. 

At around 16:25 on 30/7/21 (UK date) I'll be picking this up at a later date. 

Edited at around 16:00 on 1/8/21 (UK date) to copy & paste; 

Those were the US Democrats foreign policy objectives in carrying out the Atlanta Spa Shootings.

They also had some domestic policy objectives.

One was to manufacture consent for increased gun control. The US Democrat Party is the Tyranny. That the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution was written to guard against.

So, obviously. The US Democrat Party wants to do away with the 2nd Amendment. Along with any other restriction on their tyranny.

Such as the restriction on uncontrolled immigration. Specifically cited in the US Declaration of Independence as an example of tyranny. Hence Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution.

Along with the host of Amendments to the US Constitution which protect the integrity of the electoral system.

Such as the 14th Amendment. Which prevents any US State from passing laws stripping citizens of their right to participate in Federal Elections.

Or the 15th Amendment which prevents political parties from casting votes on behalf of entire ethnic groups.

The 19th Amendment. Which prevents any US State from passing laws stripping citizens of their right to participate in Federal Elections. Specifically on the grounds of gender.

The 1st Amendment. Which prevents any US State from passing laws stripping citizens of their right to vote in Federal Elections. Specifically on the basis of religious preference.

The Atlanta Spa Shootings was also a part of the US Democrats other domestic policy objective. The victimisation of Asian-Americans.

The US Democrats are the party of Slavery. The Confederacy during the US Civil War (1861-1865).

Their entire existence is dependent on their ability to subjugate the population. Turning them into victims. Then presenting themselves as the only people who can protect those victims.

Black Americans have, generally, been very enthusiastic in embracing this victimhood. 

Repeatedly voting for a party that has fought wars for its perceived right to keep Black people as human property. Then wondering why their situation never seem to get any better.

Asian Americans have, generally, been much less enthusiastic in embracing this victimhood.

They tend to take the position that it doesn't matter which political party is in power. Whether you succeed of fail is entirely dependent on you. How much work you are prepared to put in.

As was discussed, at length, during the 2018 Winter Olympic Opening Ceremony. In the section dealing with the "Red" element of the Wu Xing.

This divide between Black and Asian Americans is most neatly highlighted by the; "Harvard Affirmative Action Case (Students For Fair Admissions v President & Fellows of Harvard College)."

Refusing to be subjugated as victims. Asian-Americans tend to believe that places at Harvard University should go to the most qualified people. The people who have worked the hardest.

Despite the 15th Amendment, along with Title 6 of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Explicitly forbidding Harvard, as a government funded institution, from discriminating on the basis of race.

Harvard University sees things differently.

They believe that the most qualified, hardest working people should be denied places. 

To allow for those places to be given to Black people who are not qualified, who have not worked hard enough. Simply because they are Black.

Harvard University is very much a bastion of the US Democrat Party. 

Their collective attitude towards Asian-Americans is neatly summed up the argument Harvard put forth in defence of the lawsuit.

That having too many Asians on campus would be detrimental to the health and function of university society. More or less explicitly saying;

"No-one here likes Asians. No-one here wants to be around Asians."

The Atlanta Spa Shootings was just one small part of a widespread, systematic campaign of violence the Democrats unleashed against Asian-Americans in 2021. 

A very literal attempt to beat Asian-Americans into submission and make them victims.

Working hand-in-glove with the attackers. US Democrats also tried to present themselves as the saviours of Asian-Americans. 

Such as by staging recruitment events. Through the "astroturfing" group; "Stop Asian And Pacific Islander (AAPI) Hate." 

A group which really shows how the Democrats see Asian-Americans as nothing more than a single electoral bloc. Whose ballot papers can be filled in by the party.

Refusing to make any distinction between Asians and Pacific Islanders, two very different ethnic groups. 

But also not bothering to make any distinction between different types of Asians and Asian cultures.

Apparently they're all just something that can be coloured in crayon. On the map of how the Democrats will build a reich to last a thousand years.

The Democrats also introduced to COVID-19 Hate Crimes Bill*. Attempting to link the rise in violence against Asian-Americans to President Trump and his COVID-19 policies.

Treating Asian-Americans as if they are so stupid. That they would not notice that it is the Democrat's Black Lives Matter thugs who are beating on them.

Just as they were treating the governments of Japan and South Korea as if they are so stupid. That they would be shocked and mystified by the fact that Miley Cyrus menstruates.

The sequence ended with Arisa Tsubata refusing to be a subjugated victim.

Picking herself up from her heartbreak. Getting back on that treadmill.

Relying on the strength within to keep going.

16:25 on 1/8/21 (UK date).




*Yeah. I checked (22:25).

For a Bill to become an Act.

It must first be passed by both Houses, of a lawfully elected, Congress.

Then signed by a lawfully elected President.

Clearly.

Neither of those things have happened.

The 2020 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony. Pt.2

To be read as a direct continuation of Part 1; https://watchitdie.blogspot.com/2021/07/the-2020-summer-olympics-opening.html

Opening Video:  This was shown in the arena. On giant screens. As, I assume, was the Opening Animation. 

However here the TV pictures kept cutting between the feeds. Blurring the line between what was video and what was live.

The Opening Animation addressed efforts to establish parity between the Olympics and Para-Olympics. 

One way the 2018 Winter Olympics attempted to do this was by using the same, big topics at the ceremonies for both the Olympics and Para-Olympics.

One of those big topics was Time Dilation. Taken from Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity. 

This explains how time can speed up or slow down - dilate - relative to its location. Particularly if it is located close to a source of gravity. Such as a Black Hole.

Einstein built upon the work of Isaac Newton. Who built on the work of Galileo Galilei

It was Newton who coined the phrase; "Standing on the Shoulders of Giants." 

Explaining how all scientific discovery simply takes or appropriates the previous scientific discovery. Then builds upon it.

Western activists like Black Lives Matter want to see this type of; "Cultural Appropriation" banned.

Galileo, Newton and Einstein all agree that time is linear. Within its location or frame.

This means that while it may become possible to travel forward in time. It will forever be impossible to travel back in time.

Not here though.

The video travelled back in time. Taking us back to 2013. When Tokyo was awarded the 2020 Summer Games.

This was followed by a montage of athletes frantically preparing for the games. Training in their gyms with their support staff. 

It showed a montage of athletes competing at the 2016 Summer Games. 

Then back to frantically training in their gyms with their support staff.

This montage took us all the way to the start of 2020. With footage of the World welcoming the New Year. The Olympic year. Tokyo's year.

Then everything stopped.

After momentarily grinding to a halt itself. The video then showed the silent, empty streets of the pandemic Lockdowns.

Olympians are not the sort to give up though. So the video quickly resumed with a montage of athletes still frantically preparing for the games. Only this time at home, alone during Lockdown.

What I thought was interesting is that the video didn't use Japanese landmarks to illustrate the New Year celebrations and Lockdown. It used French landmarks. Such as the Arc de Triomph.

In part this was to highlight that France will pick up the baton from Japan. Hosting the 2024 Summer Olympics. 

An important show of solidarity. Given that France's own preparations have been disrupted by the pandemic. Not least because they now only have three years to prepare.

Also though I think it was because one of France's most famous landmarks is the Eiffel Tower.

Tokyo has its own version of the Eiffel Tower. The Tokyo Tower, the second tallest structure in all of Japan.

Not only is the Tokyo Tower 32 metres taller than the Eiffel Tower. It is also functional. 

Alongside being a tourist attraction with viewing decks and restaurants like the Eiffel Tower. The Tokyo Tower was also built to serve as the main TV & Radio broadcasting antenna.

The Japanese have also painted their tower orange and white for aviation safety. While the less industrious French have just left theirs nude.

When Japan made the switch from Analogue to Digital broadcasting in 2012 the Tokyo Tower was no longer tall enough. So they built the even taller Tokyo Skytree. Now the tallest structure in Japan.

The 2019 Eurovision Song Contest was held in Israel. Bringing it to a much wider audience than usual.

It also forced something of a revelation from me. That I was once in a three person couple - a so-called; "Thrupple." With a bisexual Israeli Jewish woman and her Black British girlfriend. 

Due to Twitter related difficulties and delays. I ended up making this revelation during Hanukkah 2019. That period at the end of 2019 where everything seemed to go a bit mad and COVID-19 came into being.

Although not widely known that relationship was hardly a secret. 

It formed the basis for a 2007 episode of US TV show; "The Unit." Specifically Season 2, Episode 18; "Two Coins." In which the Sgt Grey character falls in love with a female soldier in the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF).

The Unit was executive produced by Shawn Ryan. Who has gone on to executive produce the rather similar, current US TV show; "S.W.A.T." One similarity with The Unit is that it seems to have continued its interest in my love life.

It was S.W.A.T which really brought the term; "Thrupple" into popular usage. With the bisexual "Chris Alonso" character, played by Lina Esco becoming part of a Thrupple with a man and his bisexual girlfriend.

It is also S.W.A.T which seems to have pitched the Fantasy Thrupple. Myself, Miley Cyrus and Lina Esco

I don't know the truth of it. However the TV show has certainly been putting about the rumour that Lina Esco has a massive crush on Miley Cyrus.

Episode 13 of Season 3 of S.W.A.T was partly set and filmed in Tokyo. The episode is titled; "Eiktai Rashku." 

Japanese for the show's Jackie Chan inspired catchphrase; "Stay Liquid." Which was, unfortunately, adopted by British backed, anti-China rioters in Hong Kong.

Quite a lot of the episode features the Tokyo Tower. It also touches on the tensions between different Asian nations.

The Japanese police officers are all very disrespectful to the Asian American "Victor Tran" character. Played by David Lim. As he's a different type of Asian.

Frustratingly I can't remember what type of Asian American Victor Tran is supposed to be. 

I seem to remember him being introduced as Korean American. 

However in this latest, pandemic, season it's claimed he's Chinese American. A convenient device to allow the show to explore Anti-Asian American hate in response to COVID-19.

So I guess we're settling on Victor Tran being Balhae Chinese

An ethnically Korean group of Chinese people. Established under the Balhae Period. Which we were introduced to during the Opening Ceremony of the 2018 Winter Olympics.

Prior to being the first US President to visit the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK/North). 

President Trump said that China would want to help on diplomatic efforts. Due to China and the Korean Peninsula having often been the same country over the course of history.

President Trump was roundly mocked for such as stupid statement. 

Particularly by another rabidly anti-Trump US TV personality, John Oliver. Who is very much part of Rachel Maddow's anti-Trump brigade.

The Balhae Chinese are living proof that President Trump is right. While John Oliver's an idiot.

What I also noticed is that between the New Year's footage and the Lockdown footage. The video featured a momentary flash of black.

We really hope that wasn't the set shade of black. For the set length of time. That computers are programmed to read as a command to switch to a different feed. 

If it was it would have hacked a lot of people's coverage.

Much more to come at 20:05 on 26/7/21 (UK date).

Edited at around 17:20 on 27/7/21 (UK date) to copy & paste;

Opening Countdown: After the Opening Animation. After the Opening Video.

The Japanese hosts finally relented. Upholding the tradition of an Opening Countdown.

This took the form of a video montage. Augmented by computer animation. Showing various athletes participating in various Olympic sports. 

The equipment they used in those sports showed the numbers of the countdown. Such as the squad number on the back of a Rugby Sevens player's shirt. 

The Zero was the stadium itself. Shot live from above. In another Olympic tradition fireworks were set off from the stadium.

In another break from tradition the countdown was not 10 to 1. But from 21 to 0. Highlighting the extra year we'd had to wait for these 2020 Summer Olympics to finally begin.

The Strength From Within: The camera returned to the live action within the stadium. When the androgynous figure from the earlier sequence reappeared.

Upon closer inspection it was revealed that the earlier Chromosome test was wrong. Rather than being XY (male) this androgynous figure is, in fact, XX (female). Arisa Tsubata as she prefers to be known.

In her professional life Arisa Tsubata is a Nurse. Just one of the Nurses who have been extremely busy across the World in 2020.

In her personal life Arisa Tsubata is a pretty accomplished amateur Boxer. A combat sport which has traditionally been seen as a very male pursuit.

The Olympics is a truly global event. So I hesitate to say that Japanese society is extremely bad when it comes to Women's Rights. I can quickly reel off a long list of Olympic nations which are worse.

However Japan is part of the Group of 7 (G7) nations. Alongside the US, Canada, Britain, France, Germany and Italy. 

So it is considered to be equal to advanced, western democracies. The sort of nations which make up the European Union (EU).

On the issue of women's rights Japan falls short of the standards of its peers.

It is a very traditional society where men are expected to go out to work to support their families. While women are expected to stay at home and look after their husbands and children. 

If women do go out to work they are expected to stick to traditional female roles. Such as Nurse rather than Doctor. Or Secretary rather than Business Executive.

As is Olympic tradition. The Closing Ceremony of the 2016 Summer Olympics saw the passing on of the Olympic Flag. From the Mayor/Governor of the outgoing Olympic city to the Mayor/Governor of the next Olympic city.

Japan were represented by Yuriko Koike, the Governor of Tokyo Prefecture. She was selected simply because she was the Mayor/Governor of the next Olympic city at the time.

However her presence was also a big statement. She was the first female Governor of Tokyo Prefecture. 

In contrast to Japan waiting until 2007 to accept a woman to lead a sub-national government. Britain elected its first female Head of Government, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in 1979. Since 2005 EU politics have been rather dominated by Germany's female Head of Government, Chancellor Angela Merkel.

The push for better women's rights within Japanese society was a recurring theme through the Opening Ceremony.

Arisa Tsubata was shown running alone on a treadmill. Just as so many athletes and non-athletes have been forced to work out alone, at home during Lockdown.

The 2018 Winter Olympics touched on the topics of Social Conditioning and Social Control. This is very important in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Teaching robots, such as AI chatbots, to talk and behave like humans.

Although it feels a bit tin foil hatty to say. Social Psychologists will agree that humans are, to an extent, programmed like computers are programmed.

The example I used at the time was crime. Most societies have laws defining what crimes are. Along with Police forces and Courts to enforce those laws.

However what really prevents crime is Social Conditioning. That almost programmed understanding that if you want something from a shop you walk in and exchange money for it. You don't just put a brick through the window and take it.

It's testament to how deferential Japanese society is. That their Police and Courts have something like a 95% conviction rate. With almost all suspects confessing.

In part this is because Japanese society is very polite and rule abiding so there is very little crime. So when a crime does occur the police can throw massive resources at it. Plus the Japanese police have been known to engage in torture.

However a large part it is due to how deferential Japanese society is. That if an authority figure such as a police officer says that you have committed a crime. It is considered less embarrassing for you to go to prison than to point out that an authority figure has made a mistake.

Despite some of the most restrictive Social Control measures every seen, particularly in democracies. It suddenly being a crime to leave your home for example. Lockdown saw an almost complete collapse of Social Conditioning.

In most developed nations most people spend their childhoods being told what to do by their parents. 

Then they go to school where they're told what to do by their teachers. Straight from school they go out to work. Where they're told what to do by their bosses.

During Lockdown all the schools and most of the workplaces were shut. Meaning that for the first time in their lives billions of adults suddenly had no-one telling them what to do.

It was the first time they'd been forced to rely on that strength from within. The discipline that saw them go to bed at a sensible time. Get up at a sensible time. Dress themselves and eat meals. 

Rather than sitting around in their pyjamas getting drunk and watching Netflix. In one long, continuous day.

Not because they anyone was forcing them to do so. Just out of a basic sense of respect for themselves.

It showed how utterly incapable of thinking for themselves some people have become. So utterly reliant on Social Control. 

That they would hang, with an almost religious fervour, on the government's daily briefing. Being given by people who clearly had no idea what they were doing. 

In another example of the pandemic really playing to my strengths. My native, British society has spent at least the past 15 years aggressively excluding me. Or excluding itself from me, as I prefer to think of it. 

So I really knew all this already. Having lived for a long time outside of Social Control.

Meaning Lockdown didn't really affect me at all. Beyond shifting my fortnightly trip to the supermarket from a Tuesday to a Wednesday.

At around 17:35 on 27/7/21 (UK date) that strength from within is calling me to do the dishes. 

Edited at around 19:15 on 27/7/21 (UK date) to copy & paste;

Despite the impression given by the extreme Social Distancing. Arisa Tsubata was not working out alone. 

She was joined by two other athletes. A man on a rowing machine and a woman on a static bike. 

Frustratingly no-one seems to have bothered to provide the names of those two thirds of the Thrupple. Preventing me from giving them their due credit. 

The three athletes formed the points of a triangle. 

Something highlighted by the elongated spotlights shining upon them. Then further reinforced by dancers/performers forming the sides of the triangle, linking the points.

It is one of the more amusing Internet Conspiracy Theories. 

That many, particularly American, celebrities are members of a global secret society known as; "The Illuminati." 

Their supposed leaders are Jay Z and Beyonce. They all signal their membership of this secret cabal by making the shape of a triangle with their two hands.

The Illuminati was a real group in 18th and 19th Century Europe. A period which was known as; "The Enlightenment Era." 

Their mission was to empower the population through education. Fighting back against the Social Conditioning and Control of occultism, religion and abusive state power.

That is the joke in claiming that the likes of Jay Z and Beyonce are members of The Illuminati. 

Through their support for the US Democrat Party and causes like Black Lives Matter they are trying to disempower the population. Keeping them in the dark. On their knees in ignorance.

All to make it easier to vacuum money out of their victim's pockets. Totalitarian Capitalism. Or; "Communism With Chinese Characteristics" as it's more Progressively termed.

In discussing COVID-19, in the context of the 2020 US Presidential Election. 

I joked that it came into being at precisely lunchtime (GMT) on November 14th 2019 (14/11/19). Knowing it would be utterly impossible for any scientist to ever prove me wrong.

I did this in mockery of former Democrat US President Barack Obama. 

Specifically Obama's attempt to block action to combat Climate Change by derailing the 2013 COP 19 Summit. 

By forcing scientists to prove wrong his equally bonkers assertion that Climate Change wasn't being caused by Greenhouse Gas (ghg) emissions. But by Rihanna's violent mood swings during her Diamonds World Tour (DWT).

At lunchtime (GMT) on November 14th 2019 (14/11/19) I was having lunch with both of my lesbian mothers. In a restaurant in Salisbury, UK. 

A city that a year earlier had become extremely famous for Novichok related reasons. Conveniently in that gap between the 2018 Winter Olympics and the 2018 Winter Para-Olympics.

While waiting for the food to arrive we noticed some Star of David and other engravings and wall art. This led to a discussion about whether they were Jewish in origin or associated with the Freemasons. 

This involved me drawing a rough Pentagram on a napkin. 

To explain how the Star of David was originally a Masonic icon. While the Jews used the Pentagram. The original flag of the Jewish nation being very similar to the flag of the modern nation state of Morocco.

The restaurant was in an 18th/19th Century building. It was originally been built as a Literary and Scientific Society. So eventually we realised it had been built by the actual Illuminati. 

Into the sides of the triangle was light projected moving images. Of particles moving in string-like waves. 

A reference to the String Theory interpretation of Quantum Field Theory. It's understanding of the Wave/Particle Duality. 

Essentially tiny strings make up every particle which can behave like waves. They are all interlinked in a vast invisible field.

An example of conventional physics finally catching up with Animist religions, both Asian and European. The occultism the actual Illuminati were trying to save people from.

Buddha's journey to enlightenment was a long one. At around 19:25 on 27/7/21 (UK date) I won't be attempting it tonight.

Edited at around 17:15 on 27/7/21 (UK date) to copy & paste;

The arena then became filled with light projected Lotus flowers.

Probably the most famous Asian Animist religion is Buddhism. Central to Buddhism is the Buddha.

The first Buddha was Siddhartha Gautama. He lived in Lumbani in Nepal around the 5th Century B.C. Although there is some debate as to exactly when.

A member of the royal family Siddhartha lived a sheltered life of opulent luxury. Shielded from the realities of life inside a golden walled palace.

One day small cracks began to appear in these walls of gold. Giving Siddhartha tiny glimpses of the suffering and misery going on all around him.

Inspired by the tiny glimpses Siddhartha left the palace for the first time. He was shocked to discover the cruelty and misery of life. 

Particularly when he saw an old man, a sick man and a corpse. Teaching him that sickness, age and death are the inevitable fates of man. 

Siddhartha also saw a holy man. Taking this as a sign he should also become a holy man he embarked on a life of homelessness, poverty, self-denial and meditation.

After many years Siddhartha realised that this path was doing nothing to alleviate the inevitable cruelty and misery of life.

Instead he embraced the path of the Third Way. Living a life of neither extreme poverty or extreme wealth. He though continued to meditate.

One day Siddhartha was meditating beneath a Bodhi Tree. He became so absorbed in that meditation that he achieved true enlightenment. Becoming the first Buddha.

It was a joke that did the rounds at the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest. Particularly driven by the Republic of Ireland and Switzerland.

That COVID-19 is punishment from Buddha's plasterer.

For not such much making just tiny cracks in the walls. But taking a Miley Cyrus shaped wrecking ball to them. A literally Miley Cyrus shaped Wrecking Ball.

Within Buddhism the Lotus Flower is used as a metaphor for that journey to enlightenment.

It begins its life sealed off from the outside world. In dark mud beneath murky water. As it grows it forces its way through the slowly clearing water. Until it breaks free into the light. Flowering into a beautiful flower.

The beauty of the Lotus Flower is fragile and transitory. With sickness, age and death being the inevitable fates of all living things.

Another concept conventional physics is also now starting to catch up with. Describing that inevitable fate as; "Entropy."

The Lotus Flowers were then replaced with light projected nodes, connected by lines.

These could certainly be interpreted to the 10 nodes, connected by 22 lines. Which make up the Jewish Tree of Life

Although not, strictly speaking, an Animist religion Judaism does seem to share more with Asian Animist religions than its Christian and Islamic counterparts. 

Primarily though it was meant to represent electronic communication. The Internet, basically. Computer nodes all connected and talking to each other via cables.

A reference to the way the Lockdowns have essentially monetized so much of human interaction. From all the Work From Home (WFH) teleconferencing to Zoom calls with grandparents and friends.

This obviously has Cybersecurity concerns. It also has big ethical concerns. With seemingly our emotions and personal relationships now being the property of a handful of Big Tech companies.

This huge shift online has certainly made Contact Tracing a lot easier. The sort of Contact Tracing that often ends with a Hellfire missile landing on your head.

In June 2019 I was rushing to cover the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest. While US President Trump was embarking on a diplomatic tour of Europe. Starting with my home city of London, UK.

As a resident of London. My opinion of the anti-Trump protesters differed from Twitter's editorial policy. So I found myself banned from Twitter.

Officially for urging the @SkyNews account - as an inanimate object - to commit suicide. In a discussion about Assisted Suicide. 

Specifically a news story about the claimed Assisted Suicide of Noa Pothoven. A famous Eating Disorder sufferer from the Dutch city of Arnhem. A claim which later proved to be false. Making it an example of; "Fake News."

This all struck me as a rather metaphysical interpretation of Twitter's rules

If I could urge an inanimate object to commit suicide. Then surely Twitter's entire business is based around enslaving electrons. Forcing them to run along the lines connecting all those nodes.

After leaving Britain President Trump travelled to France. To mark the 75th anniversary of the D-Day Landings. The start of the liberation of Europe from Nazi Occupation and the end of the Second World War.

Key to the success of D-Day was the liberation of the so-called; "Pegasus Bridge." Over the Caen Canal.

That success made Britain overconfident. So they launched; "Operation: Market Garden." To similarly liberate a network of bridges across The Netherlands.

The bridge at Arnhem was the famous; "Bridge Too Far." Forcing Canadian forces to rescue what was left of British forces. In; "Operation: Pegasus."

This all happened in the North Rhine River region. Across Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and France. An area that has been flooding the news in recent weeks. As if Pegasus himself was stomping his hooves.

Following the D-Day commemorations President Trump travelled to Japan. For the G20 Summit.

This was held in the city of Osaka. Which seems dangerously close to the acronymed version of my Twitter handle; "@Sovereignaka (@SAKA)."

In case there's still any lingering doubt. As to the extent to which Twitter made a mess of that.

Honestly. You'd think they'd be happy to pay to part ways with any staff members responsible.

Into the arena came performers wheeling around multi-coloured large rectangles.

These resembled giant versions of the toy building blocks you would give children to play with. To teach them about shapes, colours and spatial awareness.

They were though much simpler than the building blocks used in the Opening Animation. Being all the same, easy to fit together, shape.

Suggesting that Miley Cyrus and her US captors have yet to even advance to the Kindergarten level.

You could also describe the blocks as being; "Technicoloured." As in; "Technicolour" by Montaigne. Australia's 2021 Eurovision Song Contest Entry.

Proving that Eurovision plays fast-n-loose with the definition of; "Europe." Australia obviously isn't in the traditional Europe. It's in the Asia-Pacific region.

This is the same region as Japan. Australia and, particularly, America are now, more than ever, trying to build an Asia-Pacific alliance against China

Everything about Montaigne's Eurovision persona was reminiscent of Ani DiFranco. An openly bisexual, contemporary American singer, song-writer.

Sending the message to America. That putting about the rumour Miley Cyrus may be bisexual isn't going to shock the World from its axis.

A message that was being reinforced here.

The multi-coloured blocks then formed the shaped of a pinwheel. The thing that is displayed on a computer screen when you're waiting for it to load.

A sight we've all become very familiar with during Lockdown. As, once again, our Zoom calls freeze.

Having been running on her treadmill throughout. Arisa Tsubata stopped. Stepped down and essentially fell to her knees. Clutching her head in her hands in despair.

Arisa Tsubata is such an accomplished amateur Boxer. That she was hoping to represent Japan at these 2020 Summer Olympics.

She kept up her training despite also having to be a Nurse dealing with the pandemic. Even taking a lower paid job to work at a clinic closer to her home and local gym.

She was all ready for her final qualifying event. Which everyone expected would see her selected for the Japanese Olympic team.

Then it was cancelled due to the pandemic.

Instead selection was based on existing World rankings. As newcomer Arisa Tsubata didn't make the cut.

Something which must have been completely heartbreaking for her.

At around 17:25 on 28/7/21 (UK date) there's still more to go.

Saturday 24 July 2021

The 2020 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony.

On July 23rd 2021 (23/7/21) the 2020 Summer Olympics, held in Tokyo, Japan formally opened. Having been delayed for a year by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As is tradition it began with an Opening Ceremony.

Officially the Tokyo Olympics picked up the baton from the 2016 Summer Olympics. Held in Rio de Janerio, Brazil. A country with the largest ethnically Japanese population outside of Japan.

As is also traditional Japan actually produced a small section of the 2016 Closing Ceremony. As a way to welcome people to the next host and give them a preview of what to expect.

However, chronologically the previous Olympics were the 2018 Winter Olympics. Held in PyeongChang in the Republic of Korea (RoK/South). Japan's sometimes strong ally, other times fierce rival.

The 2018 games marked the start of a long stay for the Olympics in Asia. Including not only those games but also Tokyo 2020 and the 2022 Winter Olympics being held in Beijing, China

Really spending nearly a decade in the region before the 2024 Summer Olympics being held in Paris, France.

So the South Koreans used their ceremonies to introduce people to concepts which are common throughout Asia. Such as traditional Asian Animist religions. Such as Buddhism and Taoism.

The South Koreans were particularly focused on Taoism. It is the Taoist; "Ying Yang" which is at the centre of their flag. Even if everyone confuses it with the; "Rising Sun" which is at the centre of Japan's flag.

Common to most Asian Animist religions is the concept of the; "Wu Xing." These are the five fundamental elements/forces which make up everything in the Universe. If they are not kept in perfect balance then things can start going horribly wrong.

The 2019 Eurovision Song Contest was held in Tel Aviv, Israel. This massively expanded its viewership. 

To include everybody in the International Community who has ever been forced to have an opinion on the Israel/Palestine Conflict. So everybody.

The Israeli hosts used the event to introduce people to the; "Tree of Life" concept within Judaism.

Essentially this sees God being made up of two halves. The unseeable, unknowable Godhead. Along with God's body. The entire perceptible Universe.

This means that God is the Universe. So everything within the Universe is also God. Unlike Christians and Muslims, Jews have no concept of Heaven or Hell or a Satan-like character.

Made up of 10 nodes and 22 connecting lines the Tree of Life is sort of like God's nervous system. Which can be used to send messages from the Godhead to the other parts of the body. Such as humans living in the Universe.

This past week - July 19th (19/7/21) to July 23rd (23/7/21) - has seen Muslims celebrate Eid al-Adha, the Feast of Sacrifice. This saw the Godhead send Abraham a message in the form of a goat. That he had proved his devotion so didn't have to sacrifice his son Isaac.

Alongside Muslims Eid al-Adha or the; "Binding of Isaac" is common to both Jews and Christians. Although they do not celebrate it as a major holiday.

Perhaps borrowing from Judaism there is the Ancient Greek philosophy of; "Stoicism." This includes its own explanation for the physical world. Known as; "Stoic Physics."

As with Judaism Stoic Physics teaches that there is a single God. Every element in the Universe is made up of that God. That rational Godhead (Logos) can manipulate everything within the Universe. Using it's "Pnuema" (Breath). 

For hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Conventional science has taken great pleasure in mocking these traditional religious beliefs. Along with the people who follow them.

However in the last hundred years or so conventional science has started to think in the same way. With the development of; "Quantum Field Theory." Starting with Paul Dirac in the late 1920's.

Quantum Field Theory teaches that the Universe is made up of absolutely tiny, sub-atomic particles. These are all interconnected in a sort of invisible Field, Web or Net. 

String Theorists consider these sub-atomic, quantum particles to be made up of strings of energy. Which all resonate at certain frequencies.

Disturbing particles in one part of this field can knock things out of balance. Causing things to go horribly wrong in another part of the field.

If rumours regarding the ongoing Muon g-2 experiments are to be believed. Conventional Physics might be on the verge of acknowledging that there is a fifth force. Rather than just the four they've been insisting exist.

As I'm sure you've heard by now. In late 2019, around the time of the Jewish festival of Hanukkah, COVID-19 suddenly emerged. Plunging the World into chaos. Including the 2020 Summer Olympics.

Whatever the truth. It certainly looks as though.

All the stresses of late 2019 went up. Into the Universe, Quantum Field, Tree of Life, Wu Xing, whatever you want to call it. Then came back down to us. In the form of COVID-19.

One of the main stresses of late 2019 was the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) 25th Conference of Parties (COP25).

This would be the final COP Summit before the expiry of the Kyoto (Japan) Protocol to combat Climate Change. Being replaced by the much weaker, less effective Paris (France) Agreement. 

Something the physical world seemed particularly unhappy about.

It is against this backdrop that the Opening Ceremony for the 2020 Summer Olympics finally began.

Opening Animation: It is a longstanding tradition, born out of a rule, that Olympic ceremonies begin with a countdown from 10 to 1.

This is because the Olympic ceremonies are broadcast live across many different broadcasters in many different nations. In a first there are actually two UK Olympic broadcasters this year. The BBC and the Discovery Channel Online Streaming platform.

The countdown allows all those different broadcasters to synchronise their coverage. Making sure they switch from their own feed, be it from a studio or commercial break, to the Olympic feed at the right time.

Obviously broadcast technology has moved on massively since that rule was introduced. The switching between feeds is now completely automated. If you broadcast a set shade of black for a set length of time the computer will take that as a command to switch the feed.

This is certainly something British people may have noticed. While watching imported US TV shows. There is often a momentary flash of black. That's where a commercial break would have occurred in the original US broadcast.

With technology having made the countdown redundant. In recent years there has been lots of debate as to whether Olympic ceremonies still need to include it. Or whether it should be kept as a sort of nod to history.

As, possibly, the most technologically advanced nation on Earth. Japan appeared to take the sensational decision not to include a countdown. Instead their coverage began with an animation.

The animation starts with what are supposed to represent hand drawings of three dimensional shapes. Cubes, Pyramids, Spheres etc. They are very much intended in the style of a draughtsman's or engineer's Blueprints of Schematics.

Highlighting technological advancement the drawings then develop into Computer Aided Design (CAD) Blueprints. Very much in the style of the Ichimatsu Moyo (Harmonised Chequered)  Tokyo 2020 emblem. With its two-tone - royal blue/purple, white - colour scheme.

The shapes are intended to resemble the sort of toy building blocks you would give a young child to play with. As a way to teach them about shapes and help them develop spatial awareness.

Possibly at a Kindergarten. The educational level that Miley Cyrus and her US captors seem painfully stuck at.

One of the shapes created is that of a ring or; "Doughnut." Officially this is a reference to the shape of the main Olympic stadium where the ceremony is taking place. 

Unofficially it's a reference to Starobinsky & Zeldovich's, now largely discredited, "Three-torus" or; "Doughnut Shaped" model of the universe.

Continuing that cosmic theme the animation then appears to take us to outer space. Showing space rocks and cosmic dust. The building blocks of the universe.

Amongst this cosmic debris there emerges a seed, possibly resembling an acorn.

This was intended to explore The Blueprints and Building Blocks of Life. From the quantum, sub-atomic level. Up to the level that humans can perceive. Such as hands, hair, genitals, buildings and trees.

COVID-19 has rather forced us all to become much more knowledgeable on this relationship between the Blueprints and Building Blocks of life. In one extremely narrow area in particular.

Within the field of; "Physics For Really Stupid People" commonly known as; "Biology." DNA is considered the Blueprints for life. While Proteins are considered the Building Blocks.

Coronavirus cells are too tiny to have DNA. Instead they have RNA. At this level though those terms can be used almost interchangeably. 

The only real difference being that DNA has a double chain (Helix) of Amino Acids. While RNA has only a single chain (Helix).

Those Amino Acids interact with Proteins, often stolen from another cell. Then force them into the shape of a new Coronavirus cell.

What a lot of COVID-19 vaccines - Oxford/AstraZeneca and Pfizer/Biontech - have done. Is focus on an extremely narrow part of that Helix of Amino Acids. 

The part that instruct Proteins to form the shape of the; "Protein Spike." Which Coronavirus cells use to force their way into other cells. To steal their Proteins.

The problem is that the Proteins don't always follow the Blueprint correctly. So variants arise and are then copied. With more mistakes and variations occurring. 

It is a myth that Genes/DNA are fixed and unchangeable. They are not.

Due to the narrow focus of the vaccines this variation process makes it easy for the virus to defeat them. 

I'm able to live in an almost COVID-19 free world. If there's a news story about COVID-19 I just ignore it.

However I gather the Beta (South African) variant causes particular problems for the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine. 

While Israeli researchers are talking about the Pfizer/Biontech vaccine being only about 30% effective against Delta (Indian) variant. Significantly below the 50% it needs to be considered a vaccine.

At around 19:10 on 24/7/21 (UK date) I'll be picking this up later.  

Edited around 21:15 on 24/7/21 (UK date) to copy & paste;

This issue of the Blueprints and Building Blocks of life. Was a major theme at the 2014 Winter Olympics. Held in Sochi, Russia.

Russia has a massive problem with Homophobia. Particularly in its Muslim regions.

In 2019 it was reported that gay people were being kidnapped and murdered by the police. In the Muslim Chechnya region of Russia.

In response the Chechen Prime Minister Ramzan Kadyrov said that there was no need for the police to arrest gay people. Any gay person would be murdered by their own families.

Appalling as that defence was. Having worked with Chechen forces in Syria I had absolutely no problem believing it.

So the International Community conspired to award the 2014 Winter Olympics to Russia. Specifically to tackle Homophobia within the country. Sochi being Russia's gay capital. For what being Russia's gay capital is worth.

The Russian hosts focused heavily on the Endocrinologial cause for homosexuality. 

As opposed to the suggested Genetic cause for homosexuality. Or the suggested Mental/Moral illness cause for homosexuality.

Such was Russia's commitment to this point. That they turned the entire athlete's village into a metaphor it.

Humans are obviously a lot more complicated than Coronavirus cells.

However if DNA is the Blueprints for life. While Proteins are the Building Blocks. 

Then the Endocrine system is the site foreman or project manager. Tasked with making sure the the Building Blocks are assembled according to the Blueprints.

As the Sochi athlete's village demonstrated. When the foreman/endocrine system is having a bad day. Things can get really weird.

Suddenly you have things like electrical fuseboxes appearing in shower cubicles. Radiators randomly attached to ceilings.

Russia and the International Community's efforts to improve gay rights in Russia were totally ruined. By the US, the western gay community and the American gay community in particular.

At the time, under former President Obama and former Vice President Biden. The US was supporting the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and associated groups in Syria. 

Goups so violently homophobic. They make Kadyrov and the Chechen Military Police seem like flag-carriers for gay rights.

Russia however was opposing ISIL and associated groups in Syria. Putting it in conflict with the America of Obama and Biden.

Not even, the apparently shameless, Obama and Biden could openly admit that they were supporting ISIL. So they needed to invent other reasons to attack Russia for its opposition to ISIL.

A large part of this was partnering with Nazis and neo-Nazis to overthrow the government of Ukraine. Just before the 2014 Winter Olympics. Held in Sochi, Ukraine's Black Sea neighbour.

This plunged Russia's direct neighbour into a constant state of civil war. Which continues to this day. That civil war triggered a mass exodus of refugees from Ukraine into Russia. Some 1.5 million people and counting.

That is a far greater proportion of the population being forced to become refugees than from war torn nations like Syria and Libya. The refugee flood from which has seen the European Union (EU) nations buckle under the weight and declare a crisis.

The US also punished Russia for its opposition to ISIL and associated groups in the world of sport. Particularly at the Olympics. Accusing them of doping and drugs cheating. Leading to a ban which still sees Russia absent from these Olympics.

Although not strictly speaking at the Olympics. America's snide behaviour was really highlighted by the targeting of Maria Sharapova in 2016.

I hate to spoil the magic. However all the athletes you will see at the Olympics will be using every drug they can to gain an advantage. Expect for those ones which are explictly proscribed on a banned list.

Maria Sharapova was using a drug called Meldonium which was not on the banned list. Then 21 days before the 2016 Australian Open it was suddenly added to the banned list. So Sharapova stopped using it.

However Meldonium takes 28 days to completely leave the body. So it was impossible for Sharapova to avoid being caught in a trap that had been designed exclusively for her. Seeing her banned for two years.

As part of this dispute the records of Therapeutic Use Exemptions (TEU's) granted to Team USA athletes were made public.

They showed that apparently Team USA athletes are allowed to take just any Performance Enhancing Drug (PED) they like. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) will just let them do it.

While everyone else has to stick to the rules. Then act surprised by Team USA spectacular medal winning prowess.

We're all desperate to see how the supposed; "Greatest Of All Time" Simone Biles will do. If she ever stops taking all those Amphetamines.

The US also attempted to lead the global gay community in a boycott of the Sochi games. Officially in protest against homophobia in Russia.

This actually was gay rights being used as a western plot against Russia. 

It utterly destroyed efforts to improve gay rights in Russia. Efforts people had spent much of the previous decade working on.

The damage from this is still being done today. In Russia, it's allies and basically everywhere that isn't a White, western liberal country.

As with the gay community's recent decision. To force the EU into an extremely bloody fight with itself. Over pandemic recovery funds.

Or the gay community's recent decison. To force the EU into another extremely bloody fight with itself. Over Belarus. During the intense year of Brexit negotiations.

The US-led gay community's behaviour over the Sochi games. Really only strengthened the argument for the supposed Mental/Moral illness cause for homosexuality.

Japan seems to be showing support for Russia. Through its own athlete's village. Which seems plauged by Sochi Problems of its own.

Things like the cardboard beds. Or vital things such as TV's, fridges and toilets being excluded through some mysterious clerical errors.

In July 2019 US President Trump set foot in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK/North). Being the first US President to do so.

At this point one of the lunatic leaders of the anti-Trump brigade, Rachel Maddow. Noticed that the DPRK shares a land border with Russia. 

She then suggested that the visit was all part of the vast Trump/Russia conspiracy. That people like Rachel Maddow have just invented for themselves.

Leading some people to wonder what would happen to Rachel Maddow's head. 

If she ever realised that the group of islands which make up Japan. Also manage to share a land border with Russia. The Kuril Islands.

Not that the Japanese have ever been particularly pleased. With how they came to share a land border with Russia. 

Something to do with America dropping Atomic bombs on them. 

At around 21:20 on 24/7/21 (UK date) there's still so much more to come. 

Edited at around 16:30 on 25/7/21 (UK date) to tidy up and copy & paste;

As the animation ends we then return to the stadium. Where a single androgynous figure stands. Alone in the spotlight.

Recently the chattering and ruling classes in White, western nations have become obsessed with the issue of Transgenderism

An obsession which has really taken them beyond issues relating to actual Transgenderism. Into nonsense about gender fluidity and self-selecting gender pronouns.

Really this is because in those countries the legal and political battle for equal rights for gay people has been won. 

So they've had to find increasingly elaborate new ways to draw attention to themselves. A way to signal just how virtuous they are.

The Olympics has actually been a major driving force in the global struggle for recognition of Transgenderism and rights for Transgender people.

In August 2009 South African runner Caster Semenya won Gold in the women's 800m at the Athletics World Championships. This led to accusations that Semenya was actually a man. So was cheating by competing in the women's event.

To answer this accusation the Olympic delegations from all corners of the World gathered their best scientists together. To poke, prod and study Caster Semenya. In granular, quantum detail.

Their conclusion was that Caster Semenya is not fully a woman. Nor is Caster Semenya fully a man. Caster Semenya Transcends both genders.

As a result even the most socially conservative nations could no longer deny that Transgenderism is an actual, real thing.

In the much the same way that Cerebral Palsy is an actual, real thing. Or Epilepsy is an actual, real thing. Rather than something they're just doing for attention. Or as the result of demonic possession.

It must be said though. That many of the nations you would think of as being socially conservative. Such as Thailand, India, Pakistan and even Afghanistan. Have never really had much of a problem with Transgender people.

It really only seems to be an issue for White, western virtue signallers.

In his personal life Caster Semenya chooses to be a man. Marrying his wife, Violet Raseboya, in 2015. 

However in her professional life Caster Semenya chooses to be a woman. Demanding to be allowed to compete in women's events.

Neither of those choices are a lie. Transcending both genders Caster Semenya is, simultaneously, male, female and neither. 

However the contrast does make it look like Caster Semenya is cheating. Trying to exploit the system to gain an unfair advantage over other competitors.  

This has led to a long-running argument within the Olympic movement. Over how to classify Transgender athletes in competition.

As far as I'm concerned this isn't really much of an argument.

Once this tedious warm up act has finished. We'll take a short intermission. Then move on to the main event. 

The Para-Olympics. A competition built entirely around people with unusual physical characteristics.

At the Para-Olympics there is really only one doping offence you can commit. Finding a drug that improves your performance. Then not sharing it with everyone else.

The type of cheating everyone is concerned about at the Para-Olympics is what Caster Semenya is doing. Having your unusual physical characteristics mis-classified, allowing you to compete against less able athletes. 

Trying to be the big fish in the small pond, as it were. 

The virtue signallers will argue that having Transgender categories included at the Para-Olympics would somehow be looking down on Transgender athletes. That though betrays a very outdated attitude to disability and disability sport in particular.

Certainly since 2012 there has been a concerted effort to achieve parity between the Olympics and the Para-Olympics. Putting them on an equal footing, for want of a better term.

At the 2018 Winter Olympics exactly the same topics were used in the ceremonies at both the Olympics and Para-Olympics. Almost elevating the Para-Olympics above the Olympics. Giving you time to study up on big topics like Wave/Particle Duality.

Recent World Championship events have seen Olympic and Para-Olympic competitions take place as part of the same event. Rather than separate, parallel events.

The idea being to show that these unusual physical characteristics are not good or bad. Better or worse. Just different.

Unfortunately some of the slower nations will be trying to make a thing about Transgender issues at these games too.

The Canadian Women's Football Team includes an openly Transgender player, Rebecca Quinn. Who insists on using some of those ridiculous self-selecting pronouns.

In his personal life Quinn likes to be considered a man. However in her professional life Quinn doesn't want to bash it out in the six yard box with the likes of Harry Maguire or Giorgio Chiellini.

The US Women's Football Team will be using a special App, "Fitrwoman", to monitor their menstrual cycles during the games. In an effort to gather data on the question of why female athletes are more prone to Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tears.

Is it due to hormonal differences? The ACL being reactive to Oestrogen. As a 2013 Swiss study of Alpine Skiers suggested.

Or is it due to physiological differences? Such as woman having smaller, flatter feet. Generally poorer balance, on account of their breasts. Along with factors such as women's quad muscles generally being stronger relative to their hamstrings.

New Zealand have sent the weightlifter Laurel Hubbard who claims to be Transgender. But I think we all acknowledge is just a middle-aged man who finally realised he was terrible at weightlifting.

Like Caster Semenya Laurel Hubbard takes drugs to suppress his male hormones such as Testosterone. To keep them at the upper level of what would be typical for a woman. 

However waiting until to middle-age to do this has left him with all the physiological advantages of being a man. Such as greater muscle and bone density. Allowing him to lift much heavier weights.

This has actually been a long-running issue within Gymnastic events. It will certainly become one within Skateboarding, now it has been included as an Olympic event. 

Human bones don't reach their full density, and therefore weight, until a person is in their mid twenties. 

This is why Gymnasts must be at least 16 years old to compete at the Olympics. Younger than that and their lighter, underdeveloped bones give them an unfair advantage.

Britain's 12 year old Skateboarder, Sky Brown, is undoubtedly going to be controversial. Not that that controversy will ever penetrate the skulls of idiots with self-selected gender pronouns.

The spotlight in which this androgynous figure stood alone was white an oval shaped. 

Intended to give the impression of a human egg or; "Ovum." In shadow a shape emerged from it intended to resemble a human Sperm.

Together the Ovum and Sperm contain the; "Chromosomes." The 23 packets of DNA which are the Blueprints for human life. It is the 23rd of these packets of DNA that determine sex or gender.

The female Ovum contains only "X" variants of the 23rd Chromosome. While the male Sperm contains either "X" or "Y" variants of the 23rd Chromosome. 

It is which type of Sperm that combines with the Ovum that determines the sex or gender of the offspring. Female (XX) or Male (XY).

The shadowy sperm then took on the shape of a seedling. A plant beginning to emerge from its seed. Finally this developed into a "Y" shaped seedling.

Intended to give the impression that the androgynous figure was made up XY Chromosomes. So male.

The notion of a seedling growing into a plant was reinforced. With lots of green imagery of grass and plants being projected onto the empty stadium.

This could certainly be taken as a reference to the so-called; "Green Shoots of Recovery." Society and, particularly, the economy recovering for the pandemic and the Lockdowns.

Primarily though it was intended as a reference to the commonality. Shared between Asian Animist religions, with the Wu Xing, and Judaism with the Tree of Life.

Essentially God is the Universe and the Universe is God. So everything in the Universe is also God. 

Including all the Homosexuals. Including all the Transgender people. Including all the other people with unusual physical attributes, such as Cerebral Palsy.

The metaphor of a flower, the Lotus flower, sprouting forth to the light is particularly important in the Asian Animist religion of Buddhism. As will become important in a later sequence.

However I think the Tree of Life metaphor from Judaism is probably the easiest to portray and explain in the medium of Olympic Opening Ceremony.

For all of Israel's many, many appalling crimes against the Palestinians. 

It must be said that Jews do tend to be a lot more laid back about things like Homosexuality and Transgenderism than Christians and Muslims.

They won the Eurovision Song Contest with the Trans woman Dana International. Back in 1998.

And with that the opening animation ended. As must this part.

Friday 9 July 2021

Eurovision 2021: Miley & Me Part 1.

Saturday May 22nd (22/5/21) saw the Grand Final of the 65th Eurovision Song Contest. Held in Rotterdam in The Netherlands.

The Song Contest is the big gala event of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU).

Founded in 1950 the EBU is a network of 115 TV and Radio broadcasters across 56 nations. Along with 34 associate members spread across 21 nations.

Its mission is to promote unity amongst its members. While furthering technological advancement in the field of Information Communication Technology (ICT).

The EBU was founded six years before the launching of the first satellite, Sputnik-I, into space. Eighteen years before the invention of the first microprocessor. Marking the start of the computer age.

The first challenge the EBU set itself. Was to develop technology to simultaneously broadcast live TV pictures and audio across a continent.

It took them six years to achieve that goal. Leaving them with just one remaining problem. What to point the cameras and microphones at?

They settled on the idea of a singing competition.

Since then the Eurovision Song Contest has grown, massively. Into a forum for its participating nations to discuss the big political and social issues on the day.

I don't mean just social and vaguely political issues. Such as those discussed by the Super Bowl and Oscars in the US.

The Song Contest tends to deal with full on, hardcore matters of policy. Such as specific clauses in European Union (EU) legislation.

It also serves as something of a safety valve. Allowing nations to release the animosity and aggression they hold towards each other over various disputes. Without having to resort to actual war.

In 2020 the Eurovision Song Contest was cancelled. For the first time in its 65 year history.

In the year since. Across those 56 nations and 21 associate nations. Precisely 5 things have happened.

1. The Pandemic. Which caused the 2020 Song Contest to be cancelled.

The Song Contest has a large gay, male fanbase.

Feel free to discuss whether those AIDS riddled homosexuals. With their shrill inability to understand the role of the T-cell within the human immune system. Let alone the simple fact that the World does not revolve around them.

Have been, really, the main driver behind the fear, paranoia and hysteria which has defined the pandemic. Making it far more deadly and destructive then it has needed to be.

With their very camp Nuclear Biological Chemical (NBC) Protective Suit costumes. Lithuania has certainly been encouraging you to have that discussion.

2. The war over the Nagorno-Karabakh Region (NKR). A significant escalation in the hostility between Armenia and Azerbaijan. From the insults they normally hurl at each other during the Song Contest.

During the rehearsal week of this year's Song Contest people seem to have been completely transfixed by fighting between Israel and Palestine. Shocked that some 200 people were killed in a week of fighting.

In this fighting over the Nagorno-Karabakh Region a thousand people were being killed a week. Over a period of five weeks.

No-one seemed to notice or care.

3. The EU's gay community decided to pick an extremely bloody fight with itself. Blocking the distribution of financial relief for the pandemic. As part of a dispute between Poland and Hungary and the other EU member states.

Particularly in Poland there are many issues involved. Such as efforts to pack the country's Supreme Court. Making it nothing more than body to rubber-stamp the actions of the ruling Law & Justice Party (PiS).

However opposition to the PiS within the EU is really fuelled by the fact it is a Conservative, Catholic Christian party. Opposed to gay rights. A similar position to that of the government of Hungary.

4. The EU's gay community decided to pick another extremely bloody fight with itself. This time in an effort to overthrow the government of Belarus. In order to impose a pro-EU, anti-Russian regime.

The crisis in Belarus has been entirely Britain's work. An effort to set the EU against itself. During the intense year of Brexit negotiations. 

Britain was able to do this by exploiting the gay community's seemingly feeble-minded inability to see any issue beyond their obsession with trying to have sex with everything in sight.

They simply got famous British homosexual Stephen Fry to point at Belarusian President Lukashenko and squeal; "He's homophobic!"

Then suddenly, apparently there was no limit to the level of appalling, self-destructive violence the EU's gay community wouldn't be prepared to inflict on itself.

5. Me. I definitely happened in 2020. Some would say overbearingly so.

The 2019 Eurovision Song Contest was held in Tel Aviv, Israel. There the hosts declared me to be their new Messiah, the King of Those Jews.

As a joke!

A way to dismiss claims that I had been anti-Semitic in my coverage of their 2018 Song Contest victory. While explaining the role of a Messiah in Judaism. One of the religion's key differences with Christianity.

Shortly after the 2019 Song Contest US President Trump visited the UK, specifically London. As a resident of London my opinion of the anti-Trump protesters differed from Twitter's editorial policy.

So I found myself banned from Twitter.

Officially for urging the @SkyNews account, as an inanimate object, to commit suicide. In a discussion about Assisted Suicide.

Specifically in response to the, claimed, Assisted Suicide of Noa Pothoven. A famous Eating Disorder sufferer from the Dutch city of Arnhem.

In protest I withheld my coverage of the 2019 Song Contest. If you can imagine such a thing. Eurovision being used as a metaphor for something else.

Legend has it. That by the winter of 2019 I had become so enraged that every cell in my body began to resonate with a pure, white fury.

Allowing me to weaponise the Quantum Field and conjure the pandemic as a Biblical plague with which to smite my enemies.

It also forced the cancellation of the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest. 

Buying me time to catch up with my coverage of the 2019 Song Contest. A privilege I've still yet to take advantage of.

One of the main reasons for this is. That in 2021 I have finally been facing up to my long-time stalker. Miley Cyrus. A woman who, in 2013, just turned up at my house. Completely uninvited.

Obviously my relationship with Miley Cyrus is probably not the most important issue to have affected the Eurovision community. However it is, by far, the one I am the most expert on.

So it is the theme I will address in this section.

Much of the current attention surrounding Miley Cyrus stems from rumours that she may be Bisexual.

Amid all this talk of gender fluidity and self-selecting gender pronouns. Bisexuality has become of particularly interest amongst the chattering & ruling classes. Bisexual people being equally attracted to both genders.

Frustratingly, after five months. I'm still not in any position to confirm or deny whether Miley Cyrus is bisexual or not.

It must be said though. That Miley Cyrus' reactions to certain stimuli. Are not consistent with that claim.

However I'm also getting the distinct impression. That Miley Cyrus is so lacking in emotional maturity. That she is in no position to confirm or deny it either.

However. If it were true.

Then there is an, admittedly small, global community. For whom this is in absolutely no way exciting, exotic or mysterious. It certainly isn't for me.

Long-time readers will know that I've been in separate relationships with not one, but two bisexual women. Thus, by extension, their various girlfriends as well.

It would genuinely be a novelty for me. To be in a relationship that involved just two people.

If I were to get into any form of relationship with Miley Cyrus. Then her fame means we would need to take certain precautions. To prevent the very intimate details of her sexual and emotional life appearing in the tabloids.

People who followed their coverage of the March 16th (16/3/21) Atlanta Spa Shootings would know. That Fox News developed something of a prurient obsession with Miley Cyrus' menstrual cycle.

Now this obviously isn't my favourite topic of over-dinner conversation.

However two of the most significant relationships in my life have involved myself and two other women. Making it quite hard not to get caught in the cross-fire.

So I don't think this is a topic Miley Cyrus should be ashamed of or be ashamed to discuss. In fact with some of her younger fans I think it might be extremely beneficial.

My concern though is making sure it is Miley Cyrus' choice. Not Fox News'.

Having broken that rule now. By making it my choice to talk about it. I may as well now fully discuss an incident which really highlights the pressure Miley Cyrus has been putting me under.

I genuinely don't think that Miley Cyrus realised her menstrual cycle was being turned into a global joke. Let alone one we were all associating with eight murders.

However she was clearly uncomfortable with getting her period.

Sharing in an online letter, supposedly to her dead grandfather. How she once got her period on the set of "Hannah Montana" just as she was planning to meet a cute boy for lunch.

I wanted to respond by telling her not to worry. I know that women get periods. It's not something that's going to scare me off.

Unfortunately, in the current climate. Stating that women get periods is, apparently, Transphobic hate speech.

Although I wanted to reassure her. I also didn't want to drag Miley Cyrus into the middle of that argument. Further damaging her reputation and career.

So all I could do instead was suggest we go online shopping. Perhaps something from the "S.W.A.T" collection.

Miley announced to the World that she'd got her period by sharing a picture of herself in the bath on Instagram. Showing just her knee with a sticking plaster on it.

There was actually a 2013 Swiss study linking the instances of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tears to the menstrual cycles of female Alpine skiers. The ACL being reactive to Oestrogen.

At the delayed 2020 Summer Olympics. To be held in Tokyo, Japan. If it goes ahead.

The US National Women's Soccer Team (USNWST) will be using a special App; "Fitrwoman" to monitor their menstrual cycles. Specifically to examine the role of Oestrogen on ACL injuries.

I think though this is likely to be the data that disproves the theory.

Confirming that it is physiological factors. Such as wider hips, stronger quads relative to hamstrings, flatter feet and generally poorer balance. Rather than hormonal factors which leave women more susceptible to ACL injury.

At the Tokyo Olympics the slower nations - the US and New Zealand. Intend to be making a big talking point about physiological versus hormonal differences in the role of Trans athletes.

Actually I think this is a topic Miley Cyrus should be deeply ashamed to get involved in. The debate over Trans athletes was settled as ancient history. It's called the Para-Olympics.

My concern though is making sure that it is Miley Cyrus' informed choice to blow up her reputation and career like that. Not anybody else’s.

Fortunately I can now legitimately put; "Military Intelligence Officer" on my C.V. So I don't see Fox News, TMZ or any of the others being much of a problem.

Unfortunately I learned many of those skills in an environment wholly dedicated to breaking things and hurting people. It is not a community that has much tolerance for mucking about.

I hesitate to use the term; "Safe Space." However, once we've found a way to keep those threats outside.

Then a relationship between myself and Miley Cyrus should be just the chillest thing ever. Something everyone in the Eurovision community could celebrate.

Like all single people who find themselves shoved together by their mutual friends. I assume it would start with us talking to each other.

Then, if we find we have things in common, a relationship may develop. In which I might share my life experience with her. Which could help improve Miley Cyrus' life.

In return. All I really get is the small reward of knowing that I've helped make someone else’s' life better.

However, so far. Miley Cyrus has reacted with nothing but sickening, childlike aggression and spite. Choosing to launch savage personal attacks on me and everyone around me.

Miley Cyrus is, of course, not the first US-based female popstar I've become entangled with.

At the Closing Ceremony of the 2012 Summer Paralympics I found myself being forced into a 'marriage' to Rihanna. A distinctly unhappy 'marriage' that continued throughout Rihanna's 2013 Diamonds World Tour (DWT).

There the overriding priority was preservation of life. There was a very real possibility that Chris Brown would end up beating Rihanna to death.

The next priority was preservation of health. The US' objective was to destroy Rihanna psychologically. Leaving her dependent on Chris Brown and themselves.

A process immortalised in the 2021 Oscar nominated movie; "The United States Vs Billie Holiday."

Once you've managed to achieve those two objectives. Rihanna being left with any form of career should be considered a bonus.

Rihanna has not been able to tour since 2013. She's not been able to release any music since 2015.

2021 is supposed to be the year that Rihanna relaunches her musical career.

Me going through a similar experience with Miley Cyrus reopens a lot of long forgotten wounds. At the worst possible time.

I clearly explained this to Miley Cyrus really early on. Yet Miley Cyrus has chosen to continue with the vicious attacks.

Through Rihanna's DWT I, weirdly, became Social Media friends with Kim Kardashian. Perhaps because I occupy that intersection between her ancestral Armenia, Azerbaijan and the Eurovision Song Contest.

Me developing a Social Media relationship with Miley Cyrus also puts pressure on Kim Kardashian. Not least because of the link with Rihanna.

Kim Kardashian is currently going through a divorce from Kanye West. Trying to keep things amicable for the sake of their four children. I'm in no position to speculate but I doubt the NKR war exactly helped their relationship.

Again I clearly explained this to Miley Cyrus really early on. Yet, again, Miley Cyrus has chosen to continue with the vicious attacks.

This all playing out very publicly also put huge pressure on everyone in that small, global community. Particularly people I've known personally.

I've even heard stories of the actress Anna Paquin now getting attacked. For the life choices she's made as a bisexual woman.

Almost no-one in that small, global community. Enjoy lives as luxurious as Kim Kardashian, Rihanna or Miley Cyrus.

As we know from the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest. One of my bisexual girlfriends was, and I have to assume still is, an Israeli Jew.

The relationship was really made possible by her avoiding compulsory military service during the second, Al-Aqsa Intifada. Something that horribly scarred everybody that it touched.

That relationship was immortalised by the current Mrs James Bond, Rachael Weisz in the 2017 film; "Disobedience."

Featuring Rachael McAdams in her first nude scenes. Along with graphic lesbian sex scenes. Which have been described, by even connoisseurs of the genre, as; "Niche."

The film transfers the story to a gentrified Haredi Jewish neighbourhood in London, UK. Which due to my relationship being with a secular Jew from Tel Aviv all came as news to me.

The main US objective of Rihanna's DWT was to force her into a complete psychological crisis/breakdown. During her concert in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

When Israel heard about this. They cancelled a Tel Aviv municipal election. To go through the motions of holding a Rihanna concert. Simply to give Rihanna a place of safety to recover.

As you may have learned from Israel's 2021 Song Contest entry. It has been a long-running sore within Israeli politics. The refusal to grant that right to a place of safety. To Black women who are Jewish.

Reminding everyone of the time Israel granted that right to a Black woman who is not Jewish. Was only ever going to pour more gasoline on the fire. 

Once again I clearly explained this to Miley Cyrus early on. Yet, once again, Miley Cyrus has chosen to continue with the vicious attacks.

Miley Cyrus appeared at the 2017 "One Love Manchester" concert. Held in response to the bombing of an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, UK.

That bombing was carried out by the nation state of Qatar. Along with its ally Turkey. Through the Muslim Brotherhood terror group.

Britain's response seemed to be to apologise profusely to both Qatar and Turkey. For allowing its citizens to get in the way of their explosives. While throwing huge amounts of money at them as compensation.

Saudi Arabia responded differently. Leading its allies in a total boycott of both Qatar and Turkey.

To the point they began plans to build a Manchester-style canal. In an effort to physically remove Qatar from the Arabian Peninsula.

This was an absolutely seismic event in the Middle-East. On a par with the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran, the 2003 US invasion of Iraq or the 2010 Arab Spring.

The US Democrat Party and its compliant media have been heavily infiltrated by the Muslim Brotherhood. To the point that their alleged President, Joe Biden is little more than a puppet of Qatar and Turkey.

The five months I've been facing up to Miley Cyrus. Has seen the US put huge pressure on Saudi Arabia and its allies to end to boycott of Qatar and Turkey. 

Apparently blowing up Ariana Grande concerts is something we should all just accept and celebrate now.

The most high profile part of this effort has been the US ending military support to Saudi Arabia. In its war in Yemen.

The war in Yemen is a proxy war between Saudi Arabia and Iran. It's got to the point where it seems neither side are even bothering to try and keep up the illusion of using proxies any more.

The US ending military support for Saudi Arabia in that war has, obviously emboldened Iran.

At the same time the US is continuing its so-called "Maximum Pressure" campaign on Iran. Through sanctions that former US President Obama stupidly imposed. Then forced the rest of the World to go along with.

In the five months I've been facing up to Miley Cyrus this Iran sanctions issue has been in sharp focus. Through US-led efforts to start lifting those sanctions. But only when the World complies with the Joint Comprehensive Plan Of Action (JCPOA).

The JCPOA is being negotiated by Iran the five Permanent members of the UN Security Council (P5). So America, Russia, China, Britain, France. Along with Germany/EU (P5+1). 

I get the impression that the five parties to the negotiation who aren't America. Are just stunned that they're being forced to work with a nation whose main negotiating strategy seems to have collapsed to the level of;

"Teenage Virgin Giggles After Watching First Porn Movie."

So for the past five months America's approach to Iran has been to make it stronger. While, at the same time, making it angrier.

This entire US Maximum Pressure campaign is supposedly being done to protect Israel from Iran.

However the US has excluded Israel from the JCPOA negotiations. Seemingly in no way interested in hearing Israel's views on its own security.

So not only has America emboldened and enraged Iran. It's also enraged Israel.

As a result Israel and Iran are now at war with each other. Admittedly it's a low-intensity, clandestine war. But a war none-the-less.

A major feature of this war has been Israeli airstrikes against Iranian weapons shipments in Syria.

Too really drive home the point. That the US' Maximum Pressure campaign and the JCPOA negotiations are contributing absolutely nothing in terms of protecting Israel from Iran.

Part of Iran's efforts in this clandestine war. Has being trying to get its allies in Gaza to resume rocket attacks against Israel.

Something they'd had only limited success in doing. With Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PiJ) seeming to be more keen than Hamas. Not that they were particularly.

So I don't think anyone should be at all surprised. That this recent bout of violence between Israel and Palestine exploded. During the rehearsal week of the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest.

Which brought all of the problems caused by Miley Cyrus into sharp focus.

Leaving us with some 200 dead and tens of thousands left homeless.

Which shows the main person Miley Cyrus is hurting with her aggression and spite; Miley Cyrus.

Miley Cyrus is currently at the end of her record contract. Her current single; "Without You" certainly feels like one final release too many.

Obviously Miley Cyrus is going to struggle to find a company prepared to offer her a new record contract.

If they're going to have to wait 6-8 years before they can actually release anything. While spending a fortune on PR, to get rid of the absolutely radioactive stink. That comes from hundreds of deaths.

It's certainly not going to strengthen her hand in negotiations. The US using those negotiations as a metaphor for JCPOA negotiations.

I've heard a rumour, unconfirmed. That Miley Cyrus has been offered a new record deal. By Japan's Sony records.

The same Sony records that 2021 Eurovision winners Maneskin are signed to.

Belgium were represented by Hooverphonic who were a huge band, even in America, at the turn of the 21st century. That "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Cruel Intentions," "I Know What You Did Last Summer" era.

They left Sony records in 2006. To release music independently. They've never been as successful since.

It's actually part of my life experience that Miley Cyrus has prevented me from sharing with her.

How I've had a relationship with the Japanese State. For almost precisely as long as I've had a relationship with samurai swords. It's funny how that works out.

So it seems unlikely. That collaborating with me would harm Miley Cyrus in negotiations with a Japanese conglomerate.
