Slow Collapse of American Intellectual Capacity

Slow Collapse of American Intellectual Capacity

I won't touch Epstein Case, here.

Even though, this analysis applies especially to politicians, even an Average American should read it for their own consumption and solace. 

They do believe in their politicians who are driving me nuts. 

Stop believing them.

I think Elon Musk got the sense but I do not think his new party will succeed. 

But Epstein case may be an imputeus. 

This is coming from my long experience in Ceylon. 

We tried but failed miserably.

I have chosen only the top level politicians. 

Some senators are much worse when I see how they analyses events in Ukraine. 

Zelensky is a drug addict, and believing him was the beginning of the end of American Hegemony. 

Boris Johnson was a crook who cheated British on the case of Coronavirus spread and caused untold number of deaths of senior citizens who had done their duty in their time but unceremoniously perished.

I followed these episodes (both Coronavirus and Ukraine War) from the very beginning.

Russia started stupidly by believing that Woman Cheat of Germany. 

President Putin has now gone back to sorting out "The Spy Cabinet" and prioritizing threats to him personally and the country at large. Of course, that includes interference in Russia by Mossads and Israel radicals.

I am looking at Americans with a Medical Brain (Out of Practice for 20 years). 

What I have observed are the politicians and their basic actions. 

I have stopped looking at Ceylonese politicians.

They are dumb and now the Cardinal is doing politics in Ceylon. He even decides the police appointments and he supervises the panel of judges. 

 

It is a total mess in Ceylon.

Let us take Donald Trump.

His arrogance and hubris seem to me like a man with deteriorating mental capacity.

This was pretty obvious with Joe Biden but Deep State managed him well. 

Except me from outside world, nobody saw it coming. 

 

Nobody saw the emergence of Dementia in Biden. 

 

His speech was the first to give in. 

Then the obvious incoherence. 

Then the AI took control.

The international embarrassment was mitigated by AI. 

He gradually faded with his family and son's reputation intact.

If you look at Trump now and compare him to the time of his first administration, it is pretty obvious, he is showing all the signs. 

There is a significant difference. 

He is significantly monotonous as if he is on medication for his temper tantrums.

This is on top of his narcissistic behaviour.

These tend to appear with old age.

First memory lapse.

Then irritability.

Then the temper.

 

Worse scenario is taking alcohol to subdue these early signs.

In my investigations alcohol is the major contributor to Dementia.

99.99 of Americans over 80 suffer from this disorder at least mildly. 

There is no treatment available except prevention.

 

Mad Cow Disease and eating beef has a direct correlation.

 

I think Israel Prime Minister saw this coming and was kind enough to sit with him in New York for couple of days. 

He was mindful and kind to Donald Trump as a true friend. 

I think he got what he wants and won't be asking permission for his future actions.

Donal Trump is a liability to America if not Israel. 

He has to be monitored and the deep state should have a strategy.

After all, there is another 3 years to go.

Mild Dementia may become profound.

May be AI mode is an early deterrence.

 

Let us wait and see.

Dementia

1. I stopped smoking at 35.

2. I stop eating beef moment I read the close correlation of beef and Mad Cow Disease. 

It is a synonym for dementia.

Another name is Amyloid deposits in Brain.

3. I had the presence of mind to stop drinking and within 9 months my memory lapses improved.

4. Then I looked after my blood sugar by controlling of my diet. 

I am not a diabetic by all accounts. 

My diet is one third of what I had at the age of 40.

 

5. I do not like to go beyond 80. 

Buddha did not go on beyond 80, which he could have.

It is a liability to the family members. 

I do not want to take drugs and live on burrowed time.

If my memory fails, I should kick the bucket, immediately. 

 

I do not practice now but I tell people over 80 not to take more than three medicines.

 

I do not practice meditation except "Focused Attention".

 

One of them is Aspirin or Cardiprin.

Other is treatment for hypertension.

Third is to take control of the adult onset diabetes. 

Dietary control to start with,  failing which other modalities.

Hang the cholesterol control, the treatment of which causes Dementia.

I have several pieces on coconut, chocolates and cholesterol, here in this blog site. 

You are free to visit and ignore Linux dissertations.

In my case;

Early morning waking was the first sign. This is due to early morning hypoglycemia (early morning low sugar).

This is related to high insulin levels.

Insulin levels higher than normal is the first sign of adult onset diabetes.

I generally wake up at 7AM.

I sleep 9 hours in two breaks.

I can do that in my full retirement.

I think sleep is the best stabilizer of Encephalins.

I avoid TV completely but my Computer is the biggest inducer of sleep.

I am currently working on five books.

The book on Linux Essentials almost broke my back. It became very boring but I had the stamina to finish it with over 400 pages.

 

There is a major crisis in Linux and I do not get involved in it.

 

This Wayland and X11 Saga (Wayback seems to me the solution) .

I am already on Debian 13. 

I won't go into Gnome or KDE flash points.

I think my books would keep me occupied.

Old Age crisis is difficult to handle.

My advice is to be indifferent to politics in old age. 

If you have not contributed to politics by the time of retirement, what big are going to contribute now?

Why bother now, in geriatric age?

 

Develop a habit for your own retirement.

It may be different from mine.

Avoid religion,too. 

If you did not care about religion before why after retirement?

 

Gardening is a good hobby. 

I have given it up, in this cold weather.

 

Do not take up fish keeping. 

It is a hard job good for the young.

 

Dog is a good companion but if it gets ill (specially the pedigree dogs), it is heart breaking. 

Stray (Paraya) dog is good companion. 

I think all the Paraya dogs I cared for at Panideniya Junction have found appropriate links.

 

There is no simple solution to old age.

 

Be prepared to "Kick the Bucket" but enjoy the present moment of living.

Dhamma

Buddhists can do that with Wisdom.

The death is a beginning elsewhere.

Birth is the death of somewhere.

End the Cycle of Birth is the Goal of Buddhism.
