Mr. Koehli, thank you for your post! Not so long ago I had the pleasure to read your 2014 Interview with Russian Economist Mikhail Khazin https://sott.net/en289554 Many of the things predicted back then are actually happening. Thank you for all the great work of uncovering the truth you've done! BTW, you and your subscribers may be interested in a new English translation of Mikhail Khazin main book which can be found here: https://a.co/d/6Irepjx
Thanks Ilya. Just wanted to clarify that I didn't personally conduct that interview - I just shared, commented, and highlighted parts of it. It was done by The Saker.
Harrison, thank you for the clarification. Actually, I have a personal question I'd prefer to email you, but could not find your address anywhere. Or you can email me at ilyakhot@gmail.com and I'll respond.
Just so you and anyone reading knows, you can reach me by replying to anything you get emailed to you from my Substack. Any email reply goes directly to my inbox.
I greatly appreciate your articulate and fair minded way of bringing clarity to the live zoom meetings. My intuition might often be insightful but my thoughts are always too scattered. If you have a moment to look at David A Hughes substack, he has told me he wouid very much like to have the first part of his free online published book translated into as many languages as possible. He's an ex-academic in London who is on a mission and is heavily burdened with a disabled child. Here is a link to his book:
I started the book couple years ago didn’t get very far. I know it’s written by a Polish dude psychologist I think I put it down in 2020 right after I picked it up.
A website called sign of the times was always posting it on there peripheral page
"In accordance to my experience as a clinical psychologist and researcher of the nature of evil in the domains of psychopathology, it appears to me that nearly half of the pathologic factors taking part in the processes of the generation of evil - what I call Ponerogenesis - are the results of various kinds of brain tissue lesions."
A person like me - quite novice - may have trouble setting any form of scale in regard to psychopathology. Even after having been reading the book, the whole phenomenon is quite new, and it looks like "a whole world of psychos". It's a bit "one bag", and studying ideological ponerization clearly highlights various stages & psychopathies - but it does not really adress any quantitative idea as there seems to be some.
Here, Lobaczewski expresses the idea of a scale, a quantitative addition in regard of "that whole we are spectating". That's interesting.
I would ask myself how to reach such ability of discerning "relevance" in that whole bunch of things! It seems that Lobaczewski managed to proceed as such - so it may be some hidden area of his work that may be relevant.
And then, in the paper, Lobaczewski introduces essential psychopathy (but later):
"The most active in terms of ponerogenesis is what the suppressed scientists referred to as "essential psychopathy."
He adds "around 6 percent" etc.
And overall this left me pondering at Karen Mitchell's thesis.
It seems that she has successfully been identifying essential psychopathy - her label, "persistent predatory personality" sums it up perfectly. But here, a novice reader taking note of Karen Mitchell would grasp the whole phenomenon as being the whole - while (for instance) Lobaczewski hints us at non-hereditary brain lesions as being a very mattering factor.
I suppose that Karen Mitchell is around a specific area (essential psychopathy mostly), and thus deserving its proper due. Not that it does not matter - far from it, but I was just left pondering such idea.
Interesting to see as well, in regard of essential psychopathy, that : "In my own researches it became apparent that a profound investigation of this type was necessary when it appeared that it played a chief inspirational role in the macro-social pathology still called "Communism."
And so I perfectly agree to give its due to essential psychopathy - a full due if required - but Lobaczewski left me puzzled, here! Overall this would mean that if we were to really succeed in teaching about psychopathology, it would require us to fly over essential psychopathology, somehow, and land around a "brain lesion" area. (That's to say that Karen Mitchell may want not to stop at her current step, OR, properly make all of her research "fit" a specific place - as it appears that it's objective).
I have 100% respect for Karen Mitchell and am grateful for her work. I hope it transpires from my post that I am trying to correlate Lobaczewski's saying with the current work of K. Mitchell, highlighting that she may have been landing in something ultra specific - and while aiming to teaching the world about "psychopathology" it may not be the very exact best way to do so.
I see psychopathies as a scale towards the most acute form - essential psychopathy. K. Mitchell's work is invaluable in the sense of being able to globally label the whole phenomenon, of course.
So I don't know! It may be that I have been missunderstanding Lobaczewski's words! Is it? Thank you for any ideas!
Am starting Lobaczewski's "Political Ponerology" again and would love to be able to share Michael Rectenwald's Forward and your Editors' Introduction with some old friends, family, former professors lost on the Left or just Lost. Is there a way to purchase digital copies? If they showed an interest, I could gift them with the whole book.
Salut, Harrison. As a new subscriber I wonder how to access your link to Zoom Chats for tomorrow's chat (Dec 28) . Do you send the link via email ?

And then at the end of your newsletter, you wrote that you next Zoom will be in January.
Thanks!

How a Canadian is born is how I would die - almost painful to watch except for the fact it's so amazing, words fail me - a rare thing

I’ll get to it sooner or later
That’s effing nuts dude well done
I live in Northern Wisconsin. I can handle 57° water maybe lol
Awesome
I think Russians are born that way as well
Hello,
I stumbled upon a very interesting bit of data from Lobaczewski:
https://cassiopaea.org/forum/threads/throw-the-jews-down-the-well.3558/post-22956
One phrase caught my attention:
"In accordance to my experience as a clinical psychologist and researcher of the nature of evil in the domains of psychopathology, it appears to me that nearly half of the pathologic factors taking part in the processes of the generation of evil - what I call Ponerogenesis - are the results of various kinds of brain tissue lesions."

The only digital copy is the Kindle on Amazon. I'll send you a PDF of the foreword and intro to make it easy.
I heard that you help with the translation of a newer version of Political Ponerology, where can I find it?

Love it. Thanks 🙏🏾

Yes, I will send the link by email. And the next talk is Jan. 4. That bit you quoted is referring to a talk held several months ago.
