"Go now, write it on a tablet for them,
inscribe it on a scroll,
so that in the days to come
it may be a witness to them, for ever and ever. For these are a rebellious people, deceitful children,
unwilling to listen to the instructions of the Lord. They say to their seers,
‘Do not see!’
and to the prophets,
‘Say nothing of what is right! Tell us only things that please us. Prophesy illusions."
Isaiah 30:8-10
"The gates of Hell are terrible to behold, are they not? The lofty mind of man can be imprisoned by the artifices of its own making."
E.A. Bucchianeri, Faust: My Soul Be Damned for the World, 2008
"The sick individual finds himself at home with all other similarly sick individuals. The whole culture is geared to this. The result is that the average individual does not experience the separateness and isolation that the fully schizophrenic person feels. In fact, it is the fully sane person who feels isolated in the insane society.
Exploitation and manipulation produce boredom and triviality; they cripple man, and all factors that make man into a psychic cripple turn him also into a sadist or a destroyer."
Erich Fromm, The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness, 1973
"The illusions of extremists, of the right and the left, are dangerous things, for the very reason that they often incline themselves to sacrifice the individual, large groups of individuals, and entire segments of society, for the 'greater good' of their illusions. No people, no organization of people, and no nation are immune or exceptional to this extremity. Evil is a choice, a long, gradual succession of choices. And the madness never sleeps, always hunting for souls to devour."
Jesse, A Cruel Deception, 28 October 2022
Stocks meandered around most of the day, and dipped lower into the close.
The big story today was silver, which broke out higher, and went out on a new all time high of 61.
Gold also moved higher, but not nearly with such explosive force.
But that's silver, the beta monster. When it runs, they are hauling the bears out of the trading pits on stretchers.
VIX ticked a bit higher as well.
Bitcoin bounced back up in its trading range.
ADP came in a bit light on the jobs this morning, just marginally positive.
FOMC tomorrow. The expectation is for a 25 bp cut. Their words might move the markets.
Gold and silver are telling us something, and the banksters and their servants are trying to hush them up.
What do you think this means?
Change is in the wind.
Have a pleasant evening.
