Planning - Planners & The Plan

Strategic Failure

The Pentagon has news for you about Ukraine. It's game over. Strategic failure as confirmed in Helsinki last month. If you notice the meeting at NATO with Zelensky at the top. He is isolated and will be dumped accordingly. If he is executed, you can be sure a lot of Ukrainians are going to tell you the side of the story they could not, due to the Nazi occupation we tried to informed you about.

We know through the Panama papers that Zelensky the comedian has a sprawling property empire round the world, but I guess the Miami residence would be his first pick.

They're going to need a news psyop to cover this affair and the current BBC attempt I don't think is going to cut it. Before Ukraine the news was 24/7 Covid and only a few nutters are masking up now.

I've included the female's testimony as so many of you fell for the Mariupol trauma porn. We will return to censored voices in due course. 

If you fell for Ukraine what else have you been suckered into?

Wait till you find out about the child trafficking and organs market.

Please notice our politicians at the NATO summit clutching each other like old friends. They just threw Zelensky under a bus and these people you trust and vote for would do the same for you and for me. That's the final lesson on the 'international community' the vapid think they belong to.

Update: The Times reports on the British Secretary of Defence and Ukraine fall out accusation.

Benny Hill, Southampton & Censored Protests

The image above is of Benny Hill when he was a milkman in Southampton, his hometown and the place where he was buried (opposite the hospital where my mother finally died after the horrors of Chemotherapy, Brain Surgery, Steroid induced Diabetes and a mind that drifted from consciousness to unconsciousness irrespective of whether she was awake.

The policeman is Nephilim sized so I'm quite sure there's a bit more to the image than what it appears to be.

The average consumer and/or direct or indirect corporate fluffer will have no idea of the number of demonstrations held in London against the lockdown, forced vaccinations and so forth, including one that according to respectable estimates was between half a million to a million (four miles long, of 30 people width marching). The media don't mention it, so you don't know unless your bus got caught in it.

As ever, it's the activists with a sense of humour that cut through the preposterous nature of what is easily approaching Nazi-population blindness-to-the-truth.

It's not the facts that colour their mindset, it's the moral cowardice to call it out for what it is. A clear cut case of violation of the Hippocratic Oath, Nuremburg Code (1947), Human Rights Act (2000), UNESCO’s Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights and the European Convention on Human Rights.

Great Planners Are Schizo

This is a very timely presentation on planners and schizophrenia.

Arundhati Roy - অরুন্ধতি রায় - Our Strategy

Our strategy should be not only to confront empire, but to lay siege to it. To deprive it of oxygen. To shame it. To mock it. With our art, our music, our literature, our stubbornness, our joy, our brilliance, our sheer relentlessness -- and our ability to tell our own stories. Stories that are different from the ones we're being brainwashed to believe.

The corporate revolution will collapse if we refuse to buy what they are selling -- their ideas, their version of history, their wars, their weapons, their notion of inevitability.

Remember this: We be many and they be few. They need us more than we need them.

Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.

Too Many Cooks

I particularly like the part about primary and secondary markets. It's complete bullshit but a lot of marketing people have plenty of slides droning on about those. Don't forget to pretest too!

Stephen King - JWT

Have you ever wondered what the father of 'Account Planning' looked and behaved like? I first heard of the existence of this video in JWT London's weekly meeting and recall Guy Murhpy's (JWT Global Planning Director) face lighting up at the description of 'hammers' as examples of product parity in utility.

I then saw it for the first time at the launch of 'A Master Class in Brand Planning' with Merry Baskin and Judith Lannon back in November, and was taken aback at how plannery Stephen King was. Which of course makes complete sense. Here we can see the enthusiasm for the abstract from way back in this marvelous clip that Guy has released and which also includes the remarkable Jeremy Bullmore who shared with me the inside story on that JWT clothing allowance that John Grant talked about over on Brand Tarot here. Jeremy told me in London before I came to Beijing that the allowance was a tax break and that it was a choice between a lawn mower or a clothing allowance and not as suspected an elitist perk for the Toffs. I think this is as good an example as it gets of confirmation bias, narrative fallacy, silent evidence, and epistemic arrogance which are all weaknesses that planners should be conscious of struggling against when forming conclusions.
