WWII Home Guard Emplacement - Waverly Abbey - Farnham

UK: WWII Home Guard Fort Revisit – Waverly Abbey – Farnham! (23.5.2026)

Perhaps a platoon (30-men), or a “section” (10-men) would have manned this small fort. There was a small artillary gun at the front together with a machine-gun – whilst others defended the walls via “murder-holes” in the centre of the walls or high-up from the Parapet (Merlons) and Battlement. A team would man the front gun(s) – whilst the other soldiers would be positioned on the outside and inside of the “zig-zag” structure. The enemy would have to advance past Embrasures blasting with vicious fire-power. When entering the interior (over the dead bodies of the exterior guard) the enemy would be met with sharply changing brick structures all defended round blind-corners. The interior guard would fall back to the rear of the front-gun to make a final stand. The heavy guns would be destroyed to prevent capture. These young and old men (and some women) formed static infantry formations designed to stand their ground and buy time for the regular army to reach the location.

Mao Zedong in USSR (1949)

USSR: Mao Zedong Celebrates Joseph Stalin’s Official [1949] 70th Birthday! (21.5.2026)

The 1878 Register of Infant Births kept in the Orthodox Episcopal Church of Gori City (Georgia) states (on page 33): “On December 6th, Gori resident and peasant Vissarion Ivanovich Dzhugashvili and his legal wife Ekaterina Gebrienovna gave birth to a son, Joseph”. This reference is taken as Stalin’s “actual” or “material” birthdate by many historians – although the former Catholic monk – Joseph McCabe – runs with the official date (explained below) which I find curious as he might well have had contacts who could have accessed the Church Records in Georgia. One reason might be that the politicised “Church” was viewed as acting hand-in-glove with the bourgeois (or “feudal” State in the Russian context) and therefore part of the problem that must be overthrown (that is, shifted from “public” to “private”). In this sense, who cares what the Church records? As the Secular State is primary (as the vehicle through which “Socialism” is achieved that leads to “Communism” and the dissolving of the State) – it should decide material reality and its manifestation.

CSA: Celebrating the Confederate 1862 “Liberation” of Maryland from Lincoln’s Tyranny! (19.5.2026)

I am blessed to have been born a free Englishman. British academics are the best in the world when not under duress from oppressive governments. I have piles of English books written fairly about the Confederacy – a movement I believe would have led to a “Socialist” North America if it ha prevailed. The CSA would now be supplying the Comrade-State of Cuba (instead of killing it through sanctions), rewarding a Socialist Cina, Vietnam, Laos, Venezuela and Iran – whilst blockading what is left of the Federal States for their greed and belligerence toward Socialist States. The Native Americans would have their own Independent country in what is now the Western United States – free of Eurocentric interference – whilst the State of Israel would be in a remote area of Brazil with “Zionism” being outlawed as a form of Jewish-derived “White Supremacy” (see the 1975 UN Resolution) and the subsequent ICC and ICJ Declamations regarding the Zionist Genocide in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran. South Africa would be rewarded for holding Israel accountable for its Crimes Against Humanity and Trotskyism (as a right-wing attack on Marxist-Leninism) would be an imprisonable deviation. Thank you to the Confederate soldiers who gave their lives in pursuit of a higher freedom!

The Neanderthal dentist who worked on the 59,000-year-old molar had some experience treating cavities.

Russia: Neanderthals Practiced Dentistry – Infected Teeth Drilled 59,000 Years Ago! (17.5.2026)

Neanderthals were highly creative and resourceful. Living throughout Europe and Asia between 400,000 and 40,000 years ago, they made art, intentionally started fires, took care of their sick and injured peers, created a sticky, multipurpose resin and extracted high-calorie grease from animal bones, to name just a few accomplishments.

Now, new research suggests they may also have dabbled in dentistry. Scientists have discovered a 59,000-year-old Neanderthal molar that appears to have been deliberately drilled to treat a cavity, they report in a new paper published in the journal PLOS One.

The discovery pushes back the earliest evidence of dental work by roughly 45,000 years and adds to the growing body of research that Neanderthals were intelligent, capable hominins.

Chud the Builder

Montgomery County Courthouse: The Sorry Tale of “Chud the Builder”! (16.5.2026)

Of course, both camps have started highly lucrative money-raising campaigns amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Although Eatherly says he was released on bail – news reports state that he might still be in gaol. Who knows? What happens is that the State isolates the accused completely from the outside world so that they are at the mercy of the State apparatus. I suspect the far-right support network takes over all the posting on behalf of Eatherly – so what we see is part-true and part-manipulation. Eatherly is a construction worker from Tennessee who seems to style his appearance after that of a dashing Confederate Officer – as the British press used to report in the 1860s. He decided to livestream his racial antagonism of African-American and broadcasting their anger at being abused. He then sold t-shirts and hoodies with the words “Chimping-Out” printed upon them. He was then sacked from his employment for being racist. He then went self-employed for a time – but claims he is a victim of “BLM” violence and terrorism in that no one will employ him. He is known throughout te far-right as “Chud the Builder” – I suppose a type of malignant “Bob the Builder”! I have forwarded an article and a post made in Dalton’s name from his Telegram Channel.

Denmark: Embarrassing [Indigenous Greenlandic] “Ethnic-Cleansing” Policy Abandoned! (12.5.2026)

The Guardian Newspaper used to be the best intellectual tome for the left – (about 30-years ago) I used to read it cover to cover (when commuting on long-distance trains) – but its bourgeois, Trotskyite, centre-right political trajectory today just makes me sick. Do not buy it or encourage it. However, every so often there is an article – the content of which is far more important – than the Guardian betraying the working-class. I once met an Icelandic person (and his daughter) who looked “Asian” – and he told me that indigenous peoples in Iceland, Greenland, and elsewhere – were originally from Asia thousands of years ago – but today suffer discrimination from the White Europeans who colonised these areas. Indeed, and perhaps of the greatest irony, is the fact that the racist Trump has attempted to annex Greenland, and this ambition has inadvertently highlighted an extremely “racist” policy hiding in plane sight. Denmark, of course, collaborated with Nazi Germany with many of its men joining Hitler’s SS. The White Danish Authorities inflict a “Civilisation” test on Indigenous people in Greenland to see how “White” they behave. When they fail these racist tests – their children are removed. Absolutely disgusting!
