FBI Announces Arrest of Nazis Attempting to Destroy Baltimore

There are limits to the first and second Amendments in America, apparently.

A plot right out of the 1916 America First playbook (e.g. Preparedness Day bombing of SF) has been foiled by FBI arrests.

Here are some of the many important details to this new story, as documented by Heavy.

According to the criminal complaint, Russell was using the name “Homunculus” on an encrypted communication app in June 2022 and began talking with an FBI informant. He “encouraged” the informant “to attack electrical substations,” and said sniper attacks could cause a “cascading failure,” the FBI said. He also encouraged the informant to “read a white supremacist publication that provided instructions to attack critical infrastructure”…

Encryption doesn’t do much good to hide speech from the FBI if you’re using it to speak with the FBI.

Also “homunculus“?

German 1916 6-part epic film series follows the exploits of the soulless supervillain Homunculus, a creature created by science, as he wows to find love or destroy humanity. Robert Reinert’s multi-layered script draws on Frankenstein and Faust, as well as Freud, Nietzsche and Marx to create both a treatise on the human condition as well as a comment on WWI. …in repeated fashion Homunculus finds a woman whom he tries to love, but ends up driving her to kill herself, kills her family or is rejected and hunted…

That’s another America First 1916 reference.

Nazism really is rooted in the perverse hateful visions of men like Woodrow Wilson and Henry Ford. Hitler just followed their lead, which few Americans seem ready to admit.

I’m not surprised these white supremacists think their absolute right to own guns today translates directly into license to destroy critical infrastructure like it’s 1916 or the Red Summer again.

Promoting the KKK as “America First” while violently destroying black prosperity, President Wilson’s race war inspired Adolf Hitler in Germany.

Heavy:

Homunculus also stated that the ‘goal is for when most people are using max electricity’ and that ‘follow on [attacks] could lead to cascading failure costing billions of dollars.’

Max suffering? Guns are usually treated by white supremacists as their easiest force multiplier for domestic terrorism, right behind lighting fires. It’s the old Missouri Quantrill mindset, which did in fact start the Civil War. Heavy:

Clendaniel, using the name Nythra88 on an app, began talking to the same informant in January 2023, the FBI said in the criminal complaint, after Russell told the informant to work with her.

User name of 88? That’s plain Nazi signaling. Might as well name yourself Hitler.

She also used the account “kali1889”, named for Hitler’s birth year. Not subtle. It’s like someone wants to flaunt their intent to commit crimes.

Nythra?

Now that’s different. Nythra signals modern seditious conspirator in an American militant “accelerationist” hate cult trying to start race war.

…user Nythra claimed to attended Hate Camps in Death Valley and Washington State. Nythra also participated in a conversation that discussed raping and beheading a woman. The court also heard a portion of the phone call in which he tells his mother that the Garza County deputies, whom he referred to as pigs, were lucky that they caught him off guard or he would have shot them.

White supremacists want to target and control energy. They lust for power. This particular cult even named itself after nuclear energy.

Now back to the point about the FBI using someone’s speech to take away their guns. When I mean someone, I mean a person clearly unwilling to be anti-racist.

Free speech extremist (Twitter).

Free speed extremist (Tesla).

Accelerationists. It’s literally what they call themselves when they hate people.

Get it?

Elon Musk certainly does. Heavy:

Prosecutors wrote, “The fact that Russell lied about going to see his father and was found in Key Largo (at a restaurant and not his final destination), with long rifles and ammunition that he purchased less than 24 hours after being interviewed by the FBI, camouflage gear, and a skull mask, shows the character of someone prepared to follow-through with his violent ideology when called to arms.”

Serial liars, all of them.

Although Elon Musk tends to pretend that being rich somehow makes his lies different. Call it instead openly opposing science and safety regulation to create a state of permanent improvisation — as if nobody reads history.

Consider how a petty and jealous CEO says his workers must be loyal only to him and sacrifice all their family, sleep, feelings.

I wonder what would have happened in this case if mental health services had been more easily available than guns.

Gov Threatens Jail for Dangerously Diseased Americans Refusing Treatment

Everyone probably knows what happens if you don’t quarantine tuberculosis, which is why a long time ago (way back in 1802 or even 1777, when you look at real American history) laws were written to detain it.

…over the past year, the health department has repeatedly sought and been granted court orders compelling the woman to isolate and get treated for tuberculosis. According to the Tribune, legal petitions from the department said the patient had not abided by previous orders, and had at one point started but discontinued medication. […] Under Washington state law, public health officials have the legal authority to seek a court order when a person’s refusal to take medication poses a threat to the public. Tuberculosis can rise to that level because it can be deadly if left untreated, and infectious people risk spreading the disease further. The bacteria that causes tuberculosis can spread through the air when a person with an active case coughs, sneezes or speaks.

If you think tuberculosis is bad, you should read about seditious conspiracy, which spreads like weeds with intention to undermine democracy.

So I have to ask the obvious questions again: Why does Peter Thiel leave Nazism untreated, and did he create Palantir to spread it?

Tesla Asleep at the Wheel

Tesla has been charged multiple times with engineering design failures related to their driver alertness system.

These failures are implicated in sky rocketing Tesla deaths.

And so in 2023 here’s yet more proof that the company, some would argue by design, failed to develop a safe vehicle.

Asleep at the wheel. Literally: Woman driver is filmed snoozing in her Tesla for FIFTEEN MINUTES at 70mph…

In related news, Tesla couldn’t even see a giant cow or stop in time and crashed.

CVE-2023-23504: Apple Just Patched 19-Year-Old Kernel Vulnerability

This professor at Arizona State University maybe sounds a little too excited in their January 23rd research announcement:

[Found a] heap underwrite vulnerability in XNU’s dlil.c (which handles network interfaces) caused by an (uint16_t) integer overflow in if.c. This can be triggered by a root user creating 65536 total network interfaces.

[…]

From what I can tell, it seems the vulnerable code was introduced in XNU 517.3.7, Mac OSX 10.3.2, released on December 17th, 2003, making it a 19-year-old bug!

[…]

Ultimately I gave up, sent what I had to Apple, and moved on to the next bug (but I did learn a lot in the process).

That’s the unmistakable voice of a pure academic.

XNU is used in Apple’s laptops, phones, tablets, watches, TV… and the company quickly rolled the trivial fix into a January 23rd release of iOS 16.3 and iPadOS 16.3 including a rather important impact detail.

Kernel

Available for: iPhone 8 and later, iPad Pro (all models), iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 5th generation and later, and iPad mini 5th generation and later

Impact: An app may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges

Description: The issue was addressed with improved memory handling.

CVE-2023-23504

Execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.
