Welcome back!

I apologize for my campaign of polemics against you two years back. And in terms of recent Conservapedia activities, there are some debate pages I started relating to Christian theological disputes on issues like Sabbath vs. Sunday, soul sleep vs. immediate judgment, and annihilationism vs. eternal tormentism. I'd be eager to hear your thoughts on those topics. :) —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 20:11, September 30, 2023 (EDT)

The return of a User soon? If so, this is awesome!

I just noticed this. This is awesome!

People of Conservapedia I have returned. The hour of your redemption from China/Russia cheerleading is here. USA! USA! USA!

U.S. Navy

"Though they may hate me, I will force them to esteem me as well." - John Paul Jones

Key point: Perhaps, Karajou noticed User: RobSmith reverting my edit saying the U.S. Navy is the most powerful navy in the world. This may have caused him to consider returning to Conservapedia. See RobSmith's EDIT of the article World naval powers.

I hope Karajou's return occurs soon. Conservative (talk) 00:46, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Notice 1

Things have changed since you've been gone. We don't let people just walk in and pee all over the carpet on discussion pages, like how you ran things. You must be civil. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 05:44, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

The "we" in your silly posting is just you. You are the one who needed to be civil, but refused to do so the past two years. You returned to this site expecting to take it from Andy, to run it your way, to have everyone follow your brand of rules, and all I'm seeing from this silly posting of yours is the ranting of an arrogant, narcissistic jerk.

Well, I got news for you, you little bastard. This isn't your website. This isn't your property. You can't do what you please. And absolutely none of us are obeying your rules. If you have a problem with that, feel free to write Andy, or your congressman, or that Dear Abby chick in the papers. You are nothing. Karajou (talk) 08:09, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Conservapedia needs another America first and very pro-capitalism admin. Come back soon!

Key quotes of RobSmith:

IOWs, if you don't have anything positive to say about socialists and communists, just shut up, at least for the duration of the war. Read the bios of Bill Donovan, Frank Knox, and Henry Stimson. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, you especially need to just shut up. RobSGive Peace a chance 17:54, January 21, 2023 (EST)

I should have endeavored to look at your perspective more before you quit. And I should have looked at the potential consequences if you left. My apologies.

Also, just you know. A few people have told me that your absence was a loss to the website. They said that your leaving the website gave RobSmith too much power which was detrimental to the website. Conservative (talk) 06:32, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

We have had maybe 6 vandal attacks in the past 8 months - rather than 6 per day when Karajou got an endorphin rush by playing whack-a-mole with his enemies. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 06:42, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Oh yeah, the whackamole excuse you always bring up. First, it was directed against hostile people who wanted to come into the site; second, did you ever stop to think that Andy SHUT OFF ACCOUNT CREATION a few months ago? And here you sit taking credit for the lack of vandal attacks. You're not only a LIAR and a FRAUD, you're a MORON as well. Karajou (talk) 07:17, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Use Page Protect; you were never trained in the proper use of Admin tools. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 11:39, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

"A few people have told me" - not two minutes ago Cons complained about gossip. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 06:44, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

well of course there have been very few vandal attacks...account registration on CP has been disabled, so they can't get in. That's very bad for the future longevity of CP, but apparently we couldn't solve the problem another way. --DavidB4 ^(TALK) 16:35, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Page Protect should be the first response to vandalism, not the sledgehammer; the same pages have been attacked over and over again daily by socks. Lock the page first, then warn. Then Block. That's what Page Protect is for. That's why the WikiMedia Foundation developed it. Page Protect is the first line of defense against vandalism - not Blocks.

Just in case you had problems accessing it. Here is your old user page

Karajou, just in case you had problems accessing it, here is your old user page: User:Conservative/Karajou user page. Conservative (talk) 07:06, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

One area of potential improvement

Conservapedia has about 150,000 page views to its Russia article. It also has about 100,000 page views to its India article.

Despite RobSmith being overly pro-Russia and not being objective enough and very frequently posting Russia-related content, the Conservapedia Russia article merely has 50,000 more page views to its Russia article than its India article.

Bottom line: Maybe you can make some improvements to Conservapedia's Russia article and its Vladimir Putin article in terms of objectivity. For the record, I don't think Putin is some kind of Adolf Hitler or Joseph Stalin, but he's not some kind of angelic figure either.

For example, add some content about the Russian ruble falling to Conservapedia's Russia article. Conservative (talk) 07:16, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

I am not pro-Russia. This is a lie. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 07:19, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Let me take that back - personally, I would like to the US & Russia as allies, but as Prof. Mearsheimer states, "the mess that we have created here, the disaster we have created here cannot be underestimated in terms of its scope," I'll never see it in my lifetime - thanks to Biden, Blinken, and Sullivan (and all the nazisymps. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 07:23, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

RobSmith, you have already made your position clear:

"It won't happen until China and Russia break the back of US domination, first. RobSGive Peace a Chance! 21:53, August 14, 2023 (EDT)"

There is no need for further explanation on your part. Conservative (talk) 18:10, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

An addendum regarding the So-and-so vs So-and-So past dispute. My apologies for the mistake I made

At the time I was endeavoring to be a mediator/referee between you and RobSmith before you left, I don't think I did enough due diligence in respect to your complaints. I apologize for this. If someone is going to referee, they need to look at the "playback tape" so to speak.

And looking back, there were signs that the saying "absolute power corrupts absolutely" would kick in as far as RobSmith (Although he never had absolute power).

I am glad you returned to Conservapedia and I am not the only one who is glad that you have returned. Conservative (talk) 09:24, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Yah, I've heard that same spiel a couple of times myself. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 11:29, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Thank you for putting the liar and fraud in his place

In all honesty, the reason I turned against you two and a half years ago was because he told me that you were the menace to Conservapedia, and that with you out, he would fix the site and drastically improve its editor base and traffic, etc. Of course, after you left, he gave amnesty to a whole array of trolls, and prevented me from taking action to block problematic users subverting mainspace articles to promote liberal narratives. (i.e. calling racist activists "conservative" in order to promote the "racist = conservative" canard spouted by liberals nonstop) —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 09:31, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

It's because he's a liar. And he knows it, and because we know it, he'll be grasping at straws as he tries to "justify" himself here. He's finished. Karajou (talk) 13:34, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Speaking of his serial overloaded record of lies, here is one example; so RobSmith posts a MPR headline leading readers to think that a majority of Americans of various ethnic backgrounds believe in the racist "Great Replacement" canard (which was invented by progressives Madison Grant and Lothrop Stoddard, so it's hardly a "right-wing" conspiracy theory), yet his own link says "majority of Trump voters." When I confronted him for lying, he threw bizarre ad hominem attacks; not quite pleasant.

Another example would be when he told me privately that you were a "closet racist" because you "didn't have black friends" or whatever. In retrospect, I was a complete moron for believing him. —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 15:05, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

That son of a bItch has already lost, and there's not a damn thing he can to change it, no matter how hard he pretends. Karajou (talk) 00:20, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

We are in the sixth seal of Revelation and approaching the seventh soon

Since I don't want you to fall for the mark of the beast that's coming in some number of years (I think 2027, from Feast of Jublilee tallies, will mark 6,000 years since creation, according to some calculation(s)?), it's important to understand exactly what that mark is. First off, what is the first beast of Revelation 13? None other than Papal Rome, which ruled supreme for a prophetic time, times, and half a time that equals 1,260 prophetic days. (Rev. 12:6, 14) Of course, a prophetic day means a literal year (Ezek. 4:6), so 1,260 literal years. The Code of Justinian in 538 A.D. gave Papal Rome its supreme power that lasted until 1798, when Louis-Alexandre Berthier, by the order of Napoleon Bonaparte, seized the pope captive. And the deadly wound was healed (Rev. 13:3) in 1929 when the Lateran Treaty gave Papal Rome its seat and authority back.

The second beast of Revelation is none other than the United States of America. So how do we know that the end is nigh? Remember that the second beast is described as a theocracy (Rev. 13:15); a beast is a kingdom (Dan. 7), a civil power; when a civil government decrees religious worship, it becomes a theocracy. Which group here in the U.S. is clamoring for a theocracy? None other than the Christian Nationalists, whose end agenda will be a Sunday Law demanding the nation worship the day of the sun rather than the biblical seventh-day Sabbath. (there is no Bible verse substantiating Sunday observance; this is a complex subject to dive into separately, however)

It's important to understand how the Hegelian deception game works to see what is truly going on around us. Remember, the end goal is a "far-right" theocracy, but how can you achieve one? Even back in the 1940s–50s, conservative Protestants were adamant about upholding separation of church and state; Truman tried to establish diplomatic connections with the Holy See, and backed off because of massive Protestant opposition. What happened then? The New Left in the 1960s threatened the moral fabric of American society, and soon conservative Protestants, amidst forsaking historicist eschatology for Futurism, gradually formed an ecumenical alliance with Catholics in the name of "social conservatism," and in the coming decades increasingly became hostile towards separation of church and state, a biblical principle made clear by Jesus. (Mark 12:17)

So how do you achieve a "far-right" theocracy in normal circumstances? That doesn't happen. First, a nation needs to be pushed as far "left" into societal moral degeneracy as possible, insanely maniacal and depraved in social anarchy, until the masses are finally fed up and will support any counter-movement, yes, even a mob of theocrats, who vow to restore order and overthrow the "nihilists." But in order to achieve such a state of moral degeneracy, it must be ensured that social conservatism doesn't succeed in restoring the moral fabric. Ever wonder why the conservative movement has been a failure for the past decades in the U.S. on the cultural level, and failed to properly educate the youth? It was all planned from the beginning. The social conservative cause must fail so the neo-Marxist left succeeds in creating a state of utter moral chaos, which becomes the perfect breeding ground for a theocratic movement to gain traction and rise to political power, becoming the power that institutes the Antichrist beast system prophesied in the Book of Revelation.

And this is just a condensed summary of all the complex details to grapple. —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 10:41, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Karajou a bible believer; it'll be interesting to watch him listen to your heresies. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 11:31, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

And it'll be completely funny to listen to yours. And I'm laughing at you right now. Karajou (talk) 13:36, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Brother, I love you, cause Jesus commanded me to love you. How many times should I forgive my brother? 7 x 70. Now reread Conservapedia:Guidelines#Civility casue they apply even to Admins. Thanks. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 14:24, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Being a Christian is contingent upon a change in behavior, and what I've seen from you is the right hand not knowing what the left is doing. Your own postings include hostility towards others, contempt for others, threats of blocking if they don't bow down to your wishes, and other crap during the past two years, and you want me to ignore that? You have been thrown out of Rationwiki for shoving your rules down their throats; you have been thrown out of Wikipedia for the same reason, twice. You were part and parcel for the theft of Ameriwiki from George Fitzgerald...and you have to come here. Andy's rules not good enough for you that you have to change them? Sorry, pardner, but this is his website, not yours.

It's your own behavior which proves that you are not a Christian at all. If you need a hobby and it has to be here, I strongly suggest you take some time off from the site and reflect. There are people here right now who have bad feelings against you, and you made that happen. You need to fix some things. Karajou (talk) 14:39, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

I had no idea about some of the history of RobSmith that Karajou mentioned. Unfortunately, some people never change. Conservative (talk) 14:57, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Yeah. —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 15:00, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

He's making up most of it out of his butt. But he, like you, loves to speak on things he hasn't a clue about. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:27, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

OMG! Gossipers! Ban their butts! RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:28, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

User:Conservative: 50,000 people this week told me they don't like you, and your presence is a detriment to project. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:29, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

I definitely agree with Karajou on this; RobSmith loves to hurl the classic "you need to be more forgiving!" cherry-picked quote mines at everyone else merely to suit himself. He conveniently forgets that both Jesus and the Apostle Paul have called people children of the devil. (John 8:44, Acts 13:10) And RobSmith is even worse than Elymas the sorcerer. —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 15:09, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Uh, just curious though, Karajou, what do you think about my semi-lengthy analysis? Do my points at least make sense? —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 15:07, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

There are sincere and informed theologians who believe that it is possible that the devil can repent and avoid Hell (They base it on Jeremiah 18:8). And I know that people can change. But at this point, it doesn't seem as if RobSmith is open to the idea of repenting. Hopefully, that will change. Conservative (talk) 15:14, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Jeremiah 18:8 isn't talking about fallen angels. Every demon has already gone into perdition and sealed for ultimate destruction. —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 15:20, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

According to this, Satan 100% will face final destruction. Those "informed theologians" should read Revelation 20 again. —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 15:27, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

There was a city that God proclaimed judgment on, but last time I read about this issue there appears to be no evidence that this ever happened. Theologians cite Jeremiah 18:8. Regardless, I doubt that the devil is going to repent. He has had at least 6,000 years to do so and he hasn't done it yet. Conservative (talk) 15:36, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

[EC] Judgments are conditional; Nineveh repented, and therefore was spared from judgment. Those are probably the same theologians who say "we don't need to keep the law because we're not under the law," completely ignoring Romans 2:13, 3:31, and 7:7. Apostate Protestantism has really hit new lows nowadays, but then again, the early Reformers had similar problems as well. —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 15:39, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

I would like to see you made a Conservapedia Admin again. And it should be easy to do.

I would like to see you made a Conservapedia Admin again as quickly as possible (The list of CP Admins is HERE.). During the early days of Conservapedia, I was made an Admin within a week due to my content. This is the fastest way to be an Admin again. While there were some things that needed to be said to RobSmith, the quickest way to be a CP Admin again is through content creation. I am guessing you already know all this and my apologies if I just stated the obvious to you.

Given that you were a Conservapedia Admin before and have a good relationship with Andy, things look very promising for you to be an Admin again if you did it through content creation. Conservative (talk) 17:13, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Please send me an email

Hi again, Karajou, from what I recall (I could be wrong though), you didn't respond to my email over one and a half years ago during the time you were inactive from Conservapedia. Do you still use the same address email and simply had ignored me, or not anymore? There are some matters to discuss, so I'd highly appreciate if you can shoot me an email to my substitute1984 AT gmail DOT com address. Thanks! —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Sunday, 17:15, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Web traffic stuff

Here's what CP gets daily right now; let's see if Karajou can help build that or, ahem, go the other way.

RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:42, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

And just look at that, before even rejoining, Karajou already has driven down the hit count. Maybe if he leaves really soon, we can get back to June's traffic levels. /s

And now this idiot is saying I caused a drop in content before I returned. What an incredible statement to make. Idiots do that all the time! Karajou (talk) 00:13, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

We need to write the kind of content people want to read, and on a mass scale. In order to keep up with such demand, we need new people. But as it is, we can't get any. --DavidB4 ^(TALK) 19:21, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

We need to put somebody in charge of election coverage, and start now. Election seasons are our best years. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:34, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

The times that Conservapedia got the most traffic is when it focused on a niche audience and then created a very comprehensive set of articles that covered that niche. I recall someone saying about Conservpedia "every time I do a search related to the general topic of X for a related subtopic, there is a Conservapedia article in the search results." Speaking as someone who had a client in the news business, there are a ton of news websites, news blogs, news YouTube channels, news social media pages and news podcasts. Conservapedia is not going to get a lot of traction through covering news. Conservative (talk) 19:51, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

Well, we don't have a 2024 US Senate elections page yet or a 2024 US House elections page either. And nobody's stepped forward to be page manager. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 20:05, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

2024 U.S. Senate elections. It has existed since March. MayGodBless (talk) 20:20, October 1, 2023 (EDT)

If you look at much of the news coverage or talk page content much of it has to do with military coverage of the war in Ukraine which is now a war of attrition. There are war/military channels on television. They often cover WWII. They don't WWI as much or the last 2 years of the Korean which were wars of attrition. These military/war channels also don't cover the Vietnam War a lot where General Westmoreland used a failed strategy of a war of attrition. Not only is Conservapedia trying to compete in the very competitive news space a bad strategy, but military coverage of the war in Ukraine that is a war of attrition is also a bad strategy in terms of building web traffic given that people like to follow flashy "shock and awe" war news type coverage rather than war news of a slow slog of a war of attrition. There are some people who will follow the "Captain Cauldron discussion" or other battle debates between RobSmith and ConwayIII, but many people will not.

"Yet, amid this backdrop of cooperation and solidarity, a kind of weariness appears to be setting in within the Western world when it comes to the ongoing Ukraine crisis."[5] Ukraine fatigue/war fatigue is growing in the West. Also, Russian Elite Starts to Show Signs of War Fatigue.[6] People tire of wars of attrition that drain their wallets and cause the deaths of their young men. Conservative (talk) 07:23, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

Geez, I guess that must be why they call it 'war of attrition', huh, cuz it saps all your strength and energy, huh? RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 10:31, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

Solution: Let's make pretend it doesn't exist, ignore it, and go on killing people. It worked in Afghanistan. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 10:37, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

If you are thinking that your content is going to get Kevin McCarthy to start calling you, you are dreaming. Historically, the peace movement is weak in the USA and the military-industrial complex is strong.

First of all, when I decided to criticize atheism via Conservapedia, I first created a lot of traffic and publicity to Conservapedia via my homosexuality-related articles. I don't see you creating a lot of traffic to Conservapedia. You are spending too much effort on MPR, main page talk posts and community portal posts, etc. etc. That's not going to create a lot of traffic to Conservapedia. Good luck trying to compete in the very competitive news space. When I was a consultant to a conservative news website, I did actual things to increase its traffic so I was an asset. On the other hand, I don't see CP main page right, CP main page talk and CP community portal being a very big driver of traffic to Conservapedia for a wide number of reasons. Conservative (talk) 13:07, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

Say, Conservative, are you still getting spam-called by Kevin McCarthy? :) —LT ^{Rev. 22:13} Monday, 13:10, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

RobSmith's crazy comment about me materially affecting the war in Ukraine was rather humorous. And to answer your question, I have had to change my phone number several times due to the doggedness of Kevin McCarthy's attempted outreaches to me. :) Conservative (talk) 13:14, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

You're not playing the victim here, stupid. Karajou (talk) 00:07, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

RobSmith is not a master of politics. He messed around with my World naval powers article which may have caused the ire of Ex-Navy man Karajou which might have caused him to come back to Conservapedia. The Navy's motto is "Honor, courage and commitment". Let's hope that Karajou starts creating content and becomes a Conservapedia admin again. Commitment! Hooyah! Conservative (talk) 14:27, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

Look up! West Point just dropped "Duty, Honor, Country" as their motto. I hate to be the bringer of bad news, but The Times They are a Changing. See Essay: Are ignorance, stubbornness, and stupidity conservative values?. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 02:54, March 22, 2024 (EDT)

You can say that all you want, but we've exposed you for what you are. There isn't a single thing you can do against anyone else here that won't be dealt with. Now go change your diapers, baby. Karajou (talk) 17:13, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

Karajou, I would like to see you made a Conservapedia Admin again ASAP. The list of current CP Admins is HERE and unfortunately you are currently not on this list.

Start creating Conservapedia content because you might be a hairsbreadth away from being a CP Admin again - especially if you create articles/content having to do with social conservatism, culture war issues, the current struggle between Democrats and Republicans, etc. Conservative (talk) 17:24, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

Oh yah. The current struggle between Democrats and Republicans quashes Trumpism and the peace movement, works to the advantage of the uniparty, the deep state, globohomo, global fascism the WEF, Western oligarchs and elitism, transgenderism, and the LGBT movement. Yes, please do. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:31, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

The gauntlet has been thrown down.

Karajou accepts a challenge and he is on his way to be a Conservapedia Admin again through content creation.

Here's a good job for Karajou: Do the biography of Republican Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox who worked with Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt and Communist dictator Joseph Stalin and never uttered a word against leftism, communism, or Democrats. Ok? Let's see Karajou kick that brain into gear. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:35, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

Sure thing, just as soon as you provide direct evidence concerning the death of James Forrestal. Karajou (talk) 17:39, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

RobSmith, these quotes of yours reveal your agenda:

"IOWs, if you don't have anything positive to say about socialists and communists, just shut up, at least for the duration of the war. Read the bios of Bill Donovan, Frank Knox, and Henry Stimson. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, you especially need to just shut up. RobSGive Peace a chance 17:54, January 21, 2023 (EST)"

"It won't happen until China and Russia break the back of US domination, first. RobSGive Peace a Chance! 21:53, August 14, 2023 (EDT)"

Question: Was my World naval powers article bait to cause RobSmith to disrespect the U.S. Navy and thus prompt Karajou to come back to Conservapedia or was it merely unplanned serendipity? User: Conservative is so inscrutable, Conservapedia's readership may never know the answer to this question!

Hold out baits to entice RobSmith! RobSmith thought he had the tactical high ground, but he lost miserably. Checkmate, RobSmith. On the high seas of the World naval powers article, the SS RobSmith started taking on water.

Not really. You evidently don't understand the difference between a blue water navy and a coastal defense. And it makes no difference anyway, cause (as stated before) a Supercarrier won't make it to Hawaii on its way to "defend" Taiwan before it gets hit with a hypersonic. To quote yourself,

China is in sad financial and demographic shape. I hope it doesn't launch a much bigger navy because it will be costly to maintain. The authoritarian Soviet Union had high rates of GNP growth - until it didn't. Colonel Douglas MacGregor said about China in the video: "China has huge problems just holding itself together. So I think we should set China aside and understand that."[9] See: [[Essay:Skepticism about China remaining a global power|Skepticism about China remaining a global power]]

Slow and steady GNP growth over time wins the race and so is less central planning.

Do you remember the story of the tortoise and the hare which taught that slow and steady wins the race?

It turns out that this is right when it comes to economies. A great video on this matter is at Should You Be Bullish on America?

Oh, now you wanna change the subject. You are an extremely rude person. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 02:54, October 3, 2023 (EDT)

In the USA you can much more vote with your feet and move to a GOP locally controlled state/county. So it has more financial/social stability. China's increased central planning/control under Xi Jingping is risky and inefficient.

In addition, historically slow and steady GNP growth wins the race - the Soviet Union, Japan and now China shows this.

A military is significantly affected by its financial/social stability. Colonel Douglas MacGregor is right about China and you are wrong! Conservative (talk) 02:59, October 3, 2023 (EDT)

I'm going to be as peaceful as possible when I say this, RobSmith. If you want my respect, you have to make some changes to yourself.

A certain Admin is wasting our time again and not acting in good faith

Karajou, I sent DavidB4 and Andy Schlafly this email a few minutes ago:

Andy and DavidB4,

Less than a month ago, we had an "Articles for Deletion" vote against RobSmith being able to delete one of my essays and RobSmith lost the vote 3 to 1 and if memory serves DavidB4 voted in favor of the essay not being deleted.

With Karajou aboard, it will be a 4-1 vote. And I am sure I could get other Conservapedians to vote my way also.

Now RobSmith wants to revote. This is unreasonable. He's wasting our time and should be creating content.

Sincerely,

User: Conservative

I am referring to this article: [[Essay: Russian war crimes in Ukraine]]. Conservative (talk) 04:25, October 3, 2023 (EDT)

This is a time wasting revote. There needn't be another vote. We already voted on this matter less than a month ago. User: RobSmith lost the vote by a 3 to 1 margin. He is wasting our time.

Your vote on this matter would be very helpful. Conservapedia is not a dictatorship where a wanna-be tyrant can demand a revote less than 30 days later.

A note

Just wanted to note you here - RobSmith stole the message you had on your user page regarding editing and editors and claimed it for himself on his user page.

I also unblocked you earlier after Rob unjustly blocked you without cause (he falsely claims "Violation of Commandments and/or CP guidelines", which he himself has recently been doing repeatedly, as the reason) and I ended up getting unjustly blocked myself for it. Also:

• As part of his out-of-control behavior (which, even though it goes without saying, he has a documented history of), he falsely and hypocritically accuses his opponents of "trolling" and "incivility", both of which he himself has engaged in and projected against his opponents. As part of their personalities, trolls seek to intentionally anger their opponents with their words and actions, then use the opponents' reactions against them while the troll paints himself as the "victim" and self-righteously rails against his opponents who react in self-defence - and this is exactly what Rob is guilty of doing himself (and every time he does what he does, all he does is prove our points). His behavior on this site also matches certain personality aspects of trolls - machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy and sadism (as the troll article elsewhere on the site documents - and of course, trolling is one of the character traits of liberals included in the infobox template about liberal characteristics and traits).
• Also as part of his extreme abuse of power, he unjustly blocks his oponents to silence them so they cannot defend themselves or speak out against his irrational behavior and actions while he is able to speak against them (in his typical snarky, snide and sarcastic fashion) all he wants (as well as lie about them all he wants and accuse them of what he is guilty of doing/saying/being himself - all traits displayed by liberals); he also reverts article edits that remove LPOV opinion to return them to such edits, then locks the articles to protect the favored edits.
• As is well-documented, he expects others to follow his rules (i.e. the ones he made himself, not Andy or anyone else here) while he exempts himself from those same rules and acts as if he is entitled to do as he pleases on this site without responsibility or retribution (also all traits displayed by liberals).
• Based on his history as an editor at RW (combined with his behavior here), I suspect that Rob is actually a saboteur who is out to destroy Conservapedia while he deceitfully pretends to "help" this site. Northwest (talk) 14:17, November 1, 2023 (EDT)

Notice 2

• Please re-read Conservapedia:Commandments and Guidelines. Thank you.RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:08, November 2, 2023 (EDT)

Message regarding editing and you

In addition to the following Conservapedia Commandments, I expect several things from you.

• The first is that you will respect this website. That order suggestion is non-negotiable.
• Second, respect the people here.
• Third, do the research when you write an article. I’ll have more respect for you if you hit the books and do a detailed article then if you simply put in one or two sentences with a link to a silly website that you insist is a source.
• Fourth, if you need help, ask.
• Fifth, don’t troll, don’t vandalize, don’t engage in edit wars, don’t pick fights, and don’t engage in endless debating on article talk pages if it has nothing to do with improving an article. I can and I will put an end to any of it.
• Sixth, if you do debate, restrict it to a debate page set up for that purpose and keep it civil.

Especially coming from an individual who has repeatedly said "I'm a real person editing under my own real name" and nothing else about who or what you are. As per your edits, many of which have been hostile to anyone and everyone for years, all you do is sit in your chair and scream. So go spout on about your mommy or your situation or your wives or whatever else you can make up on your turd-covered road of life, because no one here cares about you at all.

Thompson Chain Reference Bible

I think you inspired me to buy a NASB Bible as far as the Thompson Chain Reference Bible. I will get the version with comfort size print that is published by Zondervan. My first Bible had cross references. It was a gift to me from a congregant who attended the church I attended. It was the church I got saved in. Conservative (talk) 10:43, March 30, 2024 (EDT)

Bible memorization is very helpful and the Thompson Chain Reference Bible could aid me in this endeavor. Conservative (talk) 10:45, March 30, 2024 (EDT)

I just watched the video How to Use the Thompson Chain-Reference Bible for Teaching & Counseling Hosted by Randy Brown

As far as Bible memorization, this Bible will be very good for topical Bible memorization on various subjects like faith, courage, sin, etc.

I recently obtained this book: How to Memorize the Bible: (Illustrated) by William Evans (Free versions of How to Memorize the Bible by William Evans)

And this month I will begin the process of being very good as far as memory strategies/tactics/techniques which are commonly called mnemonics. Just a beginning knowledge of mnemonics can improve a person's ability to memorize by about 40%. And getting to expert status can do significantly better. The basketball player Jerry Lucas co-authored a book on memory improvement by the famous memory expert Harry Lorayne who used to go on talk shows and be able to rattle off hundreds of audience members names after being introduced to them once. Lucas graduated Phi Beta Kappa (Honor society) from his college, but only spent about a quarter of the time studying as his fellow classmates due to learning mnemonics.

The Russian mercenary Georgy Zakrevsky said "Our Black Sea fleet is being pushed out. It’s being pushed out as if we were not a great power with a great fleet, but some third-rate country."[11]

On the talk page of the essay at [[Essay: The United States will be the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future]], I mentioned your assessment of the Russian navy - namely that it has a very weak navy. Conservative (talk) 08:03, August 23, 2024 (EDT)

By the way, some hyper Russophile wants me to endlessly obsess about Russia, Russia's foolish, disastrous invasion it launched in February of 2022 (which made its demographic crisis and big alcoholism problem worse) and the war in Ukraine. In light of all the bad things happening in Russia which is making its third-rate status worse, I can't justify doing this. There is a reason why the Great Commission is called "great". It's because it is great. Certainly much greater than some third-rate country whose problems grow ever worse.

Karajou, the scholar Stephen Kotkin, who wrote a definitive 3 volume work on Joseph Stalin, recently said that Russia has a recent history of self-destruction. Given all the cultural damage that the godless Soviet Union caused in Russia, Russia's major alcoholism problem, and its disastrous war in Ukraine which is causing much damage to Russia's demographic crisis and its long-term economic prospects (resources diverted to the war do not go into R & D, education, improving its low labor productivity) and corruption of the Russian kleptocratic state, Kotkin does have a point.

Second key point: I said that if we allow RobSmith to idolize Russia to an embarrassing degree, Conservapedia will wind up having egg on its face given that Russia is declining. Russia's decline is already starting to happen and it is going to get much worse.

Let's imagine for a moment that you had an interest in international affairs beyond simply trying to harass me. In 5 or 10 years, after careful study and learning, one of the first realizations you would come to is one of the biggest problems in the field of international affairs - no nothing loudmouths and rank idiots such as yourself creating noise and confusion. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 22:35, October 2, 2024 (EDT)

RobSmith, Karajou and I don't believe that you are particularly good at engaging in careful studying and learning as far as international affairs.

Let me help educate you on some basic points:

• Since you have ZERO understanding of the ISSUES, it is IMPOSSIBLE for you to hold an opinion (this axiom is applicable in many fields).

Going back to the early days of the special military operation, you are on record of having NO understanding what a Nazi is (diffs available) during early discussions on the Azov battalion. You should have stopped right there and kept your mouth shut ever after. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 23:03, October 2, 2024 (EDT)

Everyone who is not a Putin lover is a Nazi to you. You even implied Nishant Xavier the Indian Christian was a Nazi because he is pro-Ukraine. Conservative (talk) 23:05, October 2, 2024 (EDT)

You made a point that you believed (a) Nazis were exclusively German; and (b) Nazis were virtually extinct in the modern world. This false notion (which I understand you no longer hold) disqualified you from any rational engagement on World War II, the Cold War, the post-Cold War or "unipolar moment", or the contemporary transition that began when NATO intervened in the Istanbul peace negotiations in April 2022.

All you have done since is manifest yourself as vindictive troll for having been exposed as a fool back then. IMO, in 10 or 15 years, if you had any real interest in international affairs, you may have enough understanding to articulate a sentence or two on your impressions.

Until then, just STFU. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 23:22, October 2, 2024 (EDT)

Karajou knows. He possesses genuine intellectual curiosity, and has enough sense to keep his mouth shut on things he does not know or understand.

I have been crystal clear that I very much prefer peace over war and that I am not for "forever wars" (See: Essay: Why wars and hyper-militarism often make a country weaker and Essay: Isolationalism is growing in the United States. Is this a good thing?).

The USA spends 3% of its GNP on defense while Russia stated that it will spend 6.3% of GDP on national defence in 2025. Russia is at war, has much higher inflation than the USA, its economy is slowing and now there is a significant risk of it descending into stagflation[13]. And yet, your hyper Russiaphilia has not waned nor has your hyper Putinism.

Furthermore, the USA has two big oceans protecting it. It has a much more defendable geography than China which has many neighbors. This is one of the reasons why China had a century of humiliation. The USA has never had a very long period of occupation and being bullied.

In addition, China laments ‘garbage time of history’ as economy comes off peak and growth model hits dead end, expert says. China is a middle-income country stuck in the middle-income trap and the USA is a high-income country by a large margin. Besides its oppressive regime, China is much poorer than the USA and has less economic opportunity and that is why many people (including millionaires in China) are leaving China and flocking to the USA. See: Essay: Top 12 reasons why people are flocking to the USA and leaving the corrupt, authoritarian countries of China and Russia and Essay: It's time to be very bearish about China's long-term economy

Ultimately, military power rests on economic power in the long-term and the economy of China is not as favorable as the economy in the USA. See: Essay: It's time to be very bearish about China's long-term economy and Essay: The USA has one of the highest labor productivity rates in the world - significantly higher than both China and Russia and Essay: The United States will be the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future and Essay: Is the USA an economic powerhouse and juggernaut? and Essay: The USA is more innovative and productive than China and Russia and Essay: High income countries are rarely authoritarian countries in our technological age driven by innovation and Essay: Business is more powerful than military might. All REAL Americans know this!.

Goose stepping changing of the guards in Russia at the Kremlin in 2006.

The USA spends 3% of its GNP on defense while Russia stated that it will spend 6.3% of GDP on national defence in 2025.

Russia is at war and has much higher inflation than the USA. And its economy is slowing and now there is a significant risk of it descending into stagflation[3].

Colonel Douglas MacGregor said about China in the video Why China's Navy is a JOKE: "China has huge problems just holding itself together. So I think we should set China aside and understand that."[14] See: Skepticism about China remaining a global power

In addition, while Donald Trump is not guaranteed to win the 2024 and it might be a close race in the electoral college, some people think he is more likely to win the 2024 election (due to the most accurate polling firms in 2020 saying he is the favorite in the majority of battleground states and that he has momentum in the majority of battleground states). If Trump is elected, he will put much higher tariffs on China which will hurt their already precarious economy. And if the USA puts tariffs on China, it may cause other countries to put tariffs on China. Several countries have recently raised their tariffs on China. Furthermore, at that point, China may export to other nations more and then face tariffs in those countries. None of this would be good for Russia which is the biggest seller of oil to China - especially since Trump indicates that he will ramp up oil production (which would not be good for Russia).

At least in the next 5 years, China is unlikely to attack Taiwan. Amphibious assaults are difficult to do. And China, which has a big demographic crisis, sees how Russia is bogged down in an expensive quagmire that is a war of attrition in Ukraine and even if it "wins" this war (which seems likely), it will be a pyrrhic victory (And Russia may face an insurgency even if it "wins"). And Russia was expected to easily win against Ukraine which is why the incompetent, corrupt Russian generals thought the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine would be a cakewalk. In addition, the mercantile nation of China is much more vulnerable to boycotts and sanctions than Russia is and it already has a difficult economy to contend with.

As much as I hate to say it, when it comes to being a leading power in the world, the USA is going to be more powerful than China for the foreseeable future. On behalf of all American, freedom-loving patriots, I hereby declare total victory over the godless, communist leaders of China. Olé! Olé! Olé! Conservative (talk) 03:55, October 5, 2024 (EDT)

ButterGate

I used to be more interested in Russia, but the ButterGate scandal put a damper on that.

Russian President Vladimir Putin says that Russia's war economy is well balanced to supply both guns and butter, but the price of butter itself is now soaring as surging inflation distorts parts of the economy. The price of a block of butter has risen by 25.7 per cent since December, according to the state statistics service.

'The Armageddon with butter is escalating,' Russian economists claim on Telegram.

Historical context: Russian road and sewer system decline as a sign of a waning country: The decline of the Roman Empire's infrastructure was mainly caused by a lack of dedicated funding for maintenance, political turmoil (Wagner Group rebellion), and the vastness of the Roman empire (Russia is a very large country and Russia is having increasingly difficult time to defend Russia. See: Essay: Is Russia a failed state?) making it difficult to manage and repair infrastructure effectively, leading to aqueducts, roads, and other public works falling into disrepair, especially during the later stages of the Roman empire; as more and more resources were diverted towards military defense against barbarian invasions, funding for infrastructure projects dwindled significantly. See: Russia's sewage system crisis and Russia: A land of potholes, bad roads and deteriorating car quality!

"Sewer systems in Russia have been neglected for decades. Many citizens do not even have access to working water closets, and some public infrastructure has literally collapsed due to unmaintained sewage lines. However unattractive this fact may be, it should be taken seriously as it attests to wider societal problems in Russia." - Russia’s strange acceptance of the sewage pit, New Eastern Europe website, 2019. Conservative (talk) 09:33, December 16, 2024 (EST)

I agree Karajou. The fact that Russia's two most influential cities (Moscow and St. Petersburg) have gay clubs/bars and that Russia decriminalized homosexual acts in 1993 is a very damaging blow to RobSmith's argumentation in this matter. And the divorced Vladimir Putin, who apparently has sired several children via fornication post his divorce, could shut down these gay bars if he wanted to.

I came across some additional naval news that I thought you would be interested in: Russia’s Vast Naval Modernization Set Back By War In Ukraine.

"The outlook is a return to the underinvestment and decay of the 1990s.

Efforts to get major warships back to sea, such as the carrier Admiral Kutzenov or battle cruiser Admiral Nakhimov, increasingly seem like a Pyrrhic victories. The sunk cost of these modernizations appear now to be a question of national pride more than increasing naval capabilities. There are reports in Russian State media that the Nakhimov will sail for the first time in around 25 years this month. But there is a significant caveat; it will sail without its nuclear reactors running. While there may be some practical value to these plans, they appear more for show. The Soviet practice of symbolic milestones just before year end is alive and well.

The Russian Navy’s modernization plans are now significantly curtailed. Russia may be hoping that the incoming government in Washington will push a favourable solution in Ukraine, but the damage to their their naval plans already appears too deep."

Conservative (talk) 12:53, January 6, 2025 (EST)

"Commodity prices are largely expected to fall in 2025 due to a sluggish global economic outlook and a resurgent dollar, but gold and gas prices are poised to rally this year, according to industry experts.

Crude oil prices last year were dragged down by weak Chinese demand and a supply glut, and market watchers expect prices to remain pressured in 2025.

The International Energy Agency in November painted a bearish oil market picture for 2025, forecasting global oil demand to grow under a million barrels per day. This compares to a two million barrel per day increase in 2023.
