Som man bäddar...

 

 - Hallååå i stugan, röööösta på Göööösta!

Jaha, då har vi åtta månader av paranoia om "valpåverkan" att se fram emot. Från samma personer som stödde globaliseringen när det begav sig. Men de klarar tydligen inte av det nya globala informationssamhället. LOL. "Vi har varit naiva", eller?

Visst, de kan kräva att Meta ska ta bort uppenbart gårdarikisk desinformation, whatever. Men det *är* naivt att tro att svenska väljare inte (på ett eller annat sätt) kommer att läsa/dela åsiktsyttringar på utländska sajter, legitima eller inte. Jag menar, att släcka ner Internet verkar inte ens fungera i fucking Iran!

Jag menar, det är nästan som om politik kanske borde handla om...jag vet inte...förbättra samhället eller något. Så att ingen bryr sig om de främmande opinionsyttringarna. Även om de kommer till just din lilla mobil. 

Eller?

An uncomfortable truth

 

Russian military blogger hiding
against uncomfortable truths?

Russia´s "special-military operation" against Ukraine has now lasted longer than the Soviet Union´s Great Fatherland War against Nazi Germany. Let that sink in. Russia can still win, of course, since it´s a war of attrition. And Russia has a larger population and less fickle allies. However, it´s certainly interesting that Putin can´t defeat Ukraine in the same time it took Stalin to defeat Hitler! It should be an uncomfortable truth for the "military bloggers" and their dreams of a Russian blitzkrieg against NATO...

Transnationell repression

 


Mot den kommunistiska diktaturens transnationella repression ställer vi den svenska statens nationella repression via statsbidrag. Hårda tag, gubbar! Okej, allvarligt talat. Den här nyheten var intressant. Särskilt som vår kära högerregering nyligen försökte kvasi-normalisera relationerna med just Eritrea. Vem vet, de kanske vill få fredspriset?

You don´t say

 


LOL. Told you so. The meme that Antifa "doesn´t even exist" was always incredibly braindead. I wonder what they will admit to next? That Antifa are actually named after a Stalinist organization in Germany during the early 1930´s? And no, Antifa have no idea "how to win"...unless you mean "support the Democratic Party"! Everyone knows these are Obama´s boys. 

Somaliland forever

 


Does the Fourth International (FI) support al-Qaeda? Somehow, I doubt it. Yet, the article linked below was published in their magazine "International Viewpoint". It originally appeared in "L´Anticapitaliste", the publication of the NPA, the FI´s famed French section. 

The article argues that Israel conspires with Somaliland to expel the entire population of Gaza to that particular country. No source is given for this truly remarkable statement. A conspiracy theory? Then, the piece expresses tacit support for Al-Shabab. Ahem, that´s an al-Qaeda ally...

How confused is the far left *exactly*? Here are two representative quotes. 

>>>Beyond the upheaval of the regional order, this recognition opens a breach allowing for the expulsion of Palestinians, as acceptance of this population transfer seems to have been a condition for the recognition of the state.

>>>In their imperial symbiosis, Israeli and American leaders have been searching for several months for a territory capable of accommodating a significant portion of the Palestinian people in order to bring the Palestinian question to a definitive close. 

>>>The recognition of Somaliland, coupled with promises of financial transfers, could encourage independence activists to accept this colonial project, although Al-Shabab militiamen are reminding them of the importance of preserving national unity and the duty of loyalty to the Palestinian community.

Gay, retarded and very, very British?

 


Is Spiked´s flirtation with Trumpite right-wing populism finally over? Did they really expect "British fair play" from *that* quarter? Or have they simply decided that the Trump Train isn´t lucrative anymore, and decided to strike out for greener pastures somewhere else? I mean, the U-turns of this outfit are near-legendary! Cough, cough, Living Marxism, cough cough.  

The author predicts that the "Woke right" will call him "gay and retarded". LOL! Maybe, but I have to say that the meaningless insult "Woke right" is pretty "gay", if you must use homophobic internet slang. Or at least retarded...

Why can´t the right say that the death of Renee Good was a tragedy?

Humanity is overrated

 


Overheard on the internet (on Spiked´s website, if you must know):  

"Berlin’s blackout was a grim taste of our Net Zero future. When eco-activists attacked the power grid, they unwittingly exposed the horrors of life without fossil fuels. (...) Few events could more vividly reveal what’s at stake when civilisation fails – a civilisation that is still fundamentally dependent on fossil fuels. For four days, tens of thousands of Berliners existed in the ‘state of nature’ Thomas Hobbes described in Leviathan in 1651." 

You´re right, cornucopian. Cry more! 

Well, why not?

 


The first "autistic Barbie doll" was recently released by the toy company Mattel. Well, why not? I mean, it can´t be worse than the original version! And yes, I had to look up what on earth a "fidget spinner" might be...

Swastika Ganapati?!

I promised myself and everyone else to stop posting ChatGPT-generated content here, but then I found this in my pipeline of non-published posts. Composed on November 21, apparently. So I might as well run with it here...

What is the connection between Ganesha and the swastika?

Ganesha’s connection with the swastika is ancient, widespread, and very deeply rooted in orthodox Hindu symbolism.
Here is the full explanation, clearly broken down:


1. The Swastika Is One of Ganesha’s Primary Symbols

In traditional iconography, the swastika (usually clockwise, svastika) is:

  • one of Ganesha’s core emblems,

  • drawn on the pīṭha (seat) or the modaka bowl,

  • inscribed on his palm or trunk in some regional traditions,

  • used in puja, yantras, and doorway blessings directly alongside him.

This is because both Ganesha and the swastika represent:

  • auspiciousness (śubha)

  • prosperity

  • threshold protection

  • the removal of obstacles

In Sanskrit, svasti literally means well-being, good fortune, beneficence.

Ganesha is Śubhaṅkara (“maker of auspiciousness”), so the symbolic overlap is natural.


2. The Swastika Represents the Cosmic Order (Dharma)

In Hindu cosmology, the swastika represents:

  • stability

  • the four directions

  • the eternal revolving Dharma

  • the wheel of time (kāla-cakra)

  • the cosmic balance of creation and dissolution

Ganesha is the Lord of Beginnings who regulates time, starts all rituals, governs transitions, and keeps the cosmic order steady.

Thus, the swastika is essentially the geometric expression of Ganesha’s cosmic function.


3. Esoteric (Tantric) Meaning: Swastika = Muladhara Chakra

In Śaiva and Śākta tantra:

  • Ganesha is the presiding deity of the Muladhara chakra

  • The swastika is a tantric seal (mudrā) for the mulādhāra’s energy pattern

The four arms of the swastika correspond to:

  • the four petals of the root chakra

  • the four states of consciousness (jāgrat, svapna, suṣupti, turīya)

  • the four puruṣārthas (dharma, artha, kāma, mokṣa)

Ganesha guards the gateway of the spine, ensures safe ascent of kundalini, and stabilises consciousness at its foundation.
Thus the swastika = the energetic signature of Ganesha’s domain.


4. Ganesha Yantras Always Include the Swastika

The classical Śrī Gaṇeśa Yantra from Tantric texts contains:

  • an inner square

  • a lotus

  • and two or more swastikas at the gates

They function as energetic seals to prevent disturbance during japa, homa, meditation.


5. Cultural and Ritual Connection

In orthodox practice:

  • When beginning any puja, people draw a swastika and write “श्री गणेशाय नमः” (Sri Ganeshaaya Namah) under it.

  • The swastika is placed on new books, doorframes, and ledgers during Ganesha Chaturthi.

  • In artisan guilds, the first line drawn before sculpting a murti is the swastika dedicated to Ganesha.

The two symbols are so linked that the swastika is regarded as a stand-in for Ganesha’s presence in contexts where a full image cannot be used.


6. Mythological Link

One story says:

  • The swastika symbolizes Ganesha’s footprints (pāda-chihna)

  • As the deity who walks at the head of all undertakings, his “footprint” is placed first.

Another connection:

  • The swastika’s four arms represent Ganesha’s four roles:
    remover of obstacles, giver of wisdom, guardian of thresholds, lord of auspicious beginnings.


7. A Short Summary

Ganesha is connected with the swastika because:

  1. Both represent auspiciousness and good fortune.

  2. Both govern beginnings, thresholds, and protection.

  3. Tantric symbolism links the swastika to the Muladhara chakra, Ganesha’s seat.

  4. The swastika is a standard element of Ganesha yantras and rituals.

  5. It is culturally used as the shorthand symbol of Ganesha’s blessing.

In short:
The swastika is the geometric form of Ganesha’s auspicious power.


If you want, I can also:

  • generate a traditional image of Ganesha with the swastika,

  • explain the difference between the clockwise Hindu swastika and other forms,

  • or give you a mantra practice tied specifically to the swastika symbolism.
