OffG on…the Chinese “Spy Balloon”
Everyone is talking about the “Chinese spy balloon” this week, for some reason. It’s apparently a big deal, it even has its own Wikipedia page already.
After days of back-and-forth, the US finally got tough with the dirigible and blew it out of the sky. Boom. Take that, China.
Now comes the post-balloon drama. Endless toing-and-froing over who gets the wreckage, whether Trump would have handled it better, what this means for Taiwan or Ukraine or Cuba.
Questions will persist.
Questions like “what was it for?”
“Was it really a weather balloon blown off course, as China claimed?”
“Was it a warning sign “testing Biden’s mettle”?”
And most importantly, “Who cares? It’s a fucking balloon.”
All that said, we thought you’d all be keen to hear the thoughts of our editors, which are as follows:
It’s probably not real. If it is real it’s probably not spying. if it is spying so what? So are dozens of satellites, your cell phone, your TV, and all the software on your computer.
This is the zenith of manufactured geopolitical drama. That this story is dominating headlines at all is absurd. It’s a nothing burger. A double-nothing burger with extra cheese, made-up sauce and a side serving of who-cares fries.
It couldn’t be more obviously a pointless distraction if it was a big floating sign saying “This is a pointless distraction”.

Does anyone remember that 1960s TV series called The Prisoner with Patrick McGoohan?
They had a big balloon in that which floated along and smothered him and held him down when he was trying to escape from “The Village.”
Could this be something similar?
Maybe if you’re not vaxxed Fauci or somebody similar could send the balloon to get you.
Or a “Disinformation Expert” like Jankowicz could send the balloon down to get anyone she accuses of disinformation.
I’m not saying it is, but it makes you wonder.
Kim Iverson: Dr Steven Greer Reveals The Truth Behind The Recent UAPs
There appear to be hobbyists who launch small balloons with radio transmitters on them and track them as they go around the world on the jet stream. The one shot down by the USAF over the Great Lakes appears to be one such device, it was launched by the “Northern Illinois Bottle Cap Balloon Brigade” and was on its third pass around the world. The hobby group knows it was its balloon because it went silent at the same place and at the same time as the Air Force reported the shoot down. That’s about half a million in taxpayer money used to nail about $20 worth of balloon. The kicker is that members of the group tried to contact ‘the government’ through the FBI and the like and were just given the brush off
I daresay this hobby will now be outlawed.
I now suspect China sent that balloon with not only meteorological instruments but also detectors of anomalous energy emissions, such as the HAARP and direct energy weapons.
The flight path was right over the southern “meat ” of Alaska (where HAARP is located) on its way over NW Canada.
I would hazard that the instrument is something simple and easily overlooked.
Good on ’em! I wonder what correlations to adverse events with its use could be inferred…
or not.
MTG’s antics during the state of the union address concerning the “spy balloon” terminate any idea that she’s genuine and somehow snuck through the control grid to get elected.
Why does nobody in this discussion mention Goggle and “Project Loon” ? But you are right, most propably he whole damn thing ist a total distraction. Thank you, off-guardian, at least someone sees through all the smokes and mirrors.
It seems to me this whole “story” is outright mockery.
Using a missile to shoot down a balloon then spending millions trying to recover the debris?
O RLY?
Oh and its possibly a limited hangout about the true nature of “satellites” that thing dangling off the balloon sure looked like one
but only a banana-empire fires such an expensive missile to pop up a balloon!
don’t you think this is interesting?
And it’s their own fault, that it is so expensive! They should have bought Russian one for 30% of the price, not counting the discount!
The balloon is very significant.
Probably just some experiment that drifted off course.
How did they know it was Chinese?
Why are we so scared of each other?
Damn, I wish I could go to China, and Russia, and North Korea,
And play in their waterfalls.
It had a “made in china” label on it.
Just under the “property of the pentagon” label.
China informed them.
Cannot assume that the balloon was CCP.
See Project Yucca, Operation Hardtack, 1958. US Military using balloons to detonate a nuclear device as a means of studying EMP.
Declassified in 2014.
The Tree of Liberty is thirsty.
The Red Balloon was a better movie than this White one was.
Tectonic weapons and weather balloons. The next big conspiracy theory is open for discussion here at OG.
Sometimes children lose their toys and spoiled bratty ones try to break them or pop them because they are basically just a bully.
No other deep thought moments …. just children playing stupid games.
Next time, please paint it Red so that Pascal can be happy once more.
Dam, I’d forgotten about that film, thanks.
What about the song?
Alexander Mercouris had an unusual idea: he read China’s Englsh-version “Global Times” newspaper. “In terms of how to control such high-attitude balloons, a government spokesman said it is not the first time that balloons used for scientific research have gone off their intended paths. The spokesperson also emphasized that it was a complete accident, a case of force majeure [force of Nature], and [even?] the US Pentagon had made it clear that this balloon did not pose a military or personal threat. “In disregard of China’s repeated explanations, the US insistence on using force is obviously an overreaction, and China firmly opposes it,” she said. On whether the balloon accident will further affect already tense US-China relations, the spokesperson said this little incident tests the sincerity of the US in China-US relations and the way it handles potential crises. “The US should meet China halfway, properly manage differences, and avoid… Read more »
The problem with these distractions is that you have a stupid, frightened and prejudiced population egging on greedy and corrupt leaders. In the youtube Sky video of the balloon massacre you hear a spectator on the ground screeching “Wahoo! That’s mah air force right there buddy”. The content of the distraction is alway irrelevant (Colin Powell’s test tubes, planes disappearing like ghosts into skyscrapers). The consequences which are inevitably terrifying. If anyone had bothered to stop for five minutes to THINK on 9/11, 20 years of war could have been avoided. Planes cannot disappear into a building. It’s that simple. If they were physically there and not just images on a TV, a couple of wings MUST by definition have fallen AT THE MOMENT OF IMPACT to the ground below. All weather balloons always fly in the stratosphere, above the troposphere and ozone layer, well above commercial air traffic. They… Read more »

You’re parody at this point with your repeated ‘woke alt right’ mantra of nonsense. No idea what point you’re making as all I see is your obsession with the mythical woke alt right. I’m a big fan, keep it up.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is American, not European.
We are all in it. Your right. Forget my post above it’s like peeing on the wind.
Good points, but you are an asshole for putting in such a disparaging tone.
I mean, there are things that many have never thought about, not giving them the energy until they open their mouth and make that fateful “blah blah”, and then realize its back to school!
This was legal in US long ago. It is an admission of the pervasive contamination of food. It may have followed from the global Uniform Commercial Code for long-distance and bulk trage. This Code even allows for a small percentage shortage or damage, unless specified otherwise, as that is the reality in shipping.
Food in the US on a CONTINENT has to get to the STORES you bloody IDIOTS!

watch out for deadly ballons
https://tenor.com/en-GB/view/the-prisoner-ball-balloon-rover-watch-out-gif-15966357
The balloon first entered territorial waters of the US on Jan. 28th. It was not mentioned by the military until civilians spotted it. It took civilian pressure to follow international law and either take possession (preferable) or shoot it down. These types of balloons can communicate w/many stations on the ground and it would be helpful to know what info it had collected. Too bad the govt. shot the payload, not the balloon, so no information will be retrieved. The other thing revealed is the the people running Biden were overruled by the military, the exact opposite of the US Constitution’s chain of command. So I for one do find the over rule of the military to be concerning. Although it is clear to me that the military is part of the real group running my nation, this is but one more confirmation of that fact. I would hope this… Read more »
That Balloon communicated more with you and several million citizens of your Nation, than it did with anyone else.
I’m a bit surprised that Off-G and 99%+ of the comments are writing this off as a “nothing-burger.”
Here’s another viewpoint worthy of consideration:
https://alt-market.us/chinese-spy-balloons-potential-purposes-for-the-high-altitude-invasion/
Granted, the article link above is speculative in nature but I don’t think the Chinese govt can be trusted any further than the US govt, or any other govt for that matter.
We (meaning the entire planet) are at war on many different fronts.
And I’m sure the US govt was as helpless before the Chinese balloon as they were before those “Muslim hijackers” on 9/11.
All governments work together in the panopticon. The illusion of rivalry is sold to peasants.
We should keep in mind that this whole show is being run by psychopaths so who can know for sure where they’ll draw the line.
the glue that constitutes the common foundation of the panopticon, is something like the tile floor; in that it is supported by a wooden framework embedded into a concrete foundation. The secrete operations of these spy agencies and intelligence services are the glue; they direct the media and the control groups of inter nation politics; so the nation states act as one unified mass and so its managers direct government forces in the same direction. Governments are controlled by their independent son and privately owned daughter, all three are NHOs. The difference is the operations of the government is subject to oversight by vote of those who are the governed; while there is no political oversight of the son or daughter. The son or daughter NHOs operate in secret and without oversight restraints imposed by those who are the governed and by their own parent governments. Oligarchs work to get… Read more »
I cannot speak for Off-G forces, but most of the armies seeking truth I have encountered are at war with no one except the NHOs (non human organizations:corporations, partnerships, franchises, trust). The NHOs run the Western members of the nation state system? When the parent NHO (government) divides its monopoly powers into segments and moves segments from the government into a privately owned or independently operated NHO, two bad things happen: 1. secret: all things about the application, operation and use of the relocated monopoly power are removed from the view of those who are the governed and 2 all decisions to accept|reject what the private managers of the removed and relocated monopoly power have decided is no longer subject to a vote by those who are the governed. That is voters no longer have any say in anything. . As a result the nation state is no longer relevant… Read more »
Distraction from what ?
Vaccine deaths. US Dollar collapse. The collapsing narrative in Ukraine.
Digital Currency, New Word Order, 15 minute cities, 5G, Chrislam (their new religion), creating division, elimination of the middle classes, propaganda ……… need I continue?
Exactly, Jubal. What else cd such a giant nothing-burger be about– except distraction?
I wd guess it’s to displace the half-drunk Pfizer employee video. It’s being said that 40 million people saw it on twitter & at least 10 different alternative sites have picked it up. Plus Fox.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/feb/06/rio-carnival-returns-brazil-pandemic-hiatus A “Carnival of democracy” explodes in Rio after the gloomy “Right Wing” dictatorship. “I feel ecstatic,” says someone who feels ecstatic. Though there seems to be some confusion as to whether the previous utter gloom was caused through “the coronavirus pandemic” which “forced a two-year hiatus that took an economic and emotional toll on Rio and its carnival-starved residents” or whether it was due to “the devastating four years of Jair Bolsonaro’s far-right presidency”. Indeed, the confusion continues with this: “Although out-of-season samba parades were held last year, the street celebrations were restricted to a smattering of rebellious blocos that defied a ban on the free gatherings.” Umm ….. but weren’t these gatherings banned because of ever wise – and allegedly “Leftist” concerns over the big bad bug? Obviously not: “The creative sector suffered hugely, as Bolsonaro’s disdain for Brazilian culture trickled down into policy. His government got rid… Read more »

The Chinese probably knew what they were doing – put the wind up to the US authorities while cause amusement to everyone else.
The Chinese weather balloon is an “all dressed” “nothing burger”.

The media is consciously (or unconsciously) channeling the Japanese FuGo balloon bombs of WW2. The Japanese tried to use these to cause problems on the West Coast, starting wildfires and so on, The Dastardly Chinese are obviously up to the same thing because they’re incapable of building and using surveillance satellites without Western Technology, something we’ve denied them so they’re turning to improvised measures in desperation. Meanwhile back in the real world if the balloon was spying on anything then it was either the ionosphere or upper atmosphere winds. These are incnveniently placed too high to be studied by aircraft and too low to be studied by satellites. They’re important because they affect things like radio propagation and the weather. They’re not that good for classical spying because they’re unpredictable — our media assures us that they’re steerable but they’re not — judging by its speed and track it was… Read more »

Hi Martin: which media would that be ? Link me …
I liked the rest of your comment, but this one detail I found obtuse and unworthy of you,
For two reasons. So, let us examine your thoughts.
Endless distractions for the masses. Including the truthers..
The distractions prevent you from entering the next phase which is a creative one. If you’re constantly analysing and discussing info and events, you’re still within their program. Always one step behind, reacting.
A new expression of creativity in something good interrupts their flow, slows their momentum and upsets their balance.
True
We should still be tracking clot shot injuries and deaths. People are still dropping dead. We have stopped discussing birth rates, abortion and the like. Are mandates still in place ? When and how are Castreau and Arsedern and all the other mass murderers going to be brought to justice ?
Do not ask for worldly justice in a fallen world.
Go to a hospital and ask for natural remedies. See how far you get.
There is already justice. God saves those believe in Him. A worse fate awaits the likes of the mentioned.

whether Trump would have handled it better, Well, Trump-trap didn’t bother telling the citizens what is in the vaccine patents, so he may just know what the “spy satellite” is. My freedom-of-speech opinion is that the balloon is actually part of the wifi “grid” that will be used to enslave the people, and that it simply lost a little air. China is scripted to win the next war, and they have to get those fighting age males, so maybe they’re simply using the failed grid balloon as a door to start getting the sheep worked up over China.

If you complain about the control matrix but use a smartphone (the nexus of the control matrix) then I’m afraid you’re a hypocrite acquiescing in your own surveillance and oppression. Which, unfortunately, is true for an awful lot of people who really ought to know better. The more of it you go along with, the harder it is for anybody to escape.
How am I a hypocrite? Because I think that I should be able to install privacy software of my own?
Or, simply because I use a smartphone? If I use a smartphone, then I should accept that it records me without my knowledge? Seriously?
I think that its better for people to openly discuss privacy invasion, so that our privacy can be maintained.
I think that people should be aware that the device they use takes screenshots every 60 seconds.
I also feel that I should be able to code my own screenshot manager, as well as clipboard and downloading services, but I can’t because the APIs have been blocked. Of course, its only blocked for the people. Select entities are granted priveleged permissions and can do as they please.
Screw fairness and transparency, let’s go with if you use a smartphone, you’re a hypocrite.
Sounds stupid to me.
‘Should’? So now you are making demands of companies who are selling you a product?
No, you are simply free to buy/use or not to buy/use. They have no obligation to you.
It’s not a stupid argument at all. It’s one of personal responsibility. One that says, in order to do right, I may need to go without. And that to preserve freedom, one must sacrifice.

Don’t worry, the Vineyard will be spiritually revived, by one or more of the regulars, who may or may not actually be some agency
(this I suspect follows the MoA playbook)
I think its a how “insanely incompetent” and “compromised” the current “administration” is message, with a dash of anti-Chinese rhetoric
The real news of the last couple of months was the release of several interviews in the alternative media with expert USA pharmaceutical regulatory consultant Sasha Latypova proving that the entire fake vaccine rollout was totally under the control of the US Department of Defense in which the DoD contracts named the fake vaccines only as “counter measures,” never a pharmaceutical or medical treatment, and which waived all established FDA regulations. The DoD contracts where structured identically as their contracts for weapons purchases. The FDA, CDC, and NIH were all puppet front organizations without any real authority or control. Same for Big Pharma including Pfizer and Moderna. These corporations were simply made an offer they couldn’t refuse for huge profits and total immunity from civil or criminal prosecution in exchange for following DoD directives to the letter. The “legal” right to do this was built into omnibus legislation beginning with… Read more »
Yes…why this information is not the most talked about topic in the alternative media right now escapes me.
All quite true. The Plandemic was a Department of Defense operation right from first glimmer.
Did National Security Imperatives Compromise COVID-19 Vaccine Safety?

Did National Security Imperatives Compromise COVID-19 Vaccine Safety? ⋆ Brownstone Institute
Agree with the editors of off-G 100%.
A spy satellite? Absurd for all the obvious reasons.
A vehicle to spread lethal viruses? Even if said viruses did exist, how about the tens of thousands of maritime containers coming in from China?
A diversion from suddenly and unexpectedly medical emergencies? Undoubtedly.
A national IQ test? Came in at room temperature. In Europe, after the thermostats were lowered.
Cheering on the F-22’s first impressive combat kill against an impressive adversary?
They’ve been able to lock-down the world over an illness that was a minor nuisance for a huge majority, therefore they can create “a real life” story out of nothing.
Last year Chinese launched to orbit more stuff than anybody. They have tons of satellites with sensors for various wavelengths of light. They have hires synthetic aperture radars that can see through clouds. They have satellites for monitoring wireless communications. They have absolutely no need for a balloon mounted spy.
“….what this means for Taiwan or Ukraine or Cuba”
In some sense this is purring of kerosene on anxiety-fire. Bastards always want more anxiety. And soon there is more to come.
For the record, I predict Russian winter offensive to start in next three weeks, except if the weather change. The war will become even nastier. The balloon is just an appetizer for nato propaganda believers’ anxiety.
free-floating anxiety, Schwab’s orgasmatron

If you don’t watch MSM or read MSM, you simply never get affected by this trash because you are supremely unaware of it.
I learned 33 years ago that you could spend 4 months virtually cut off from the media and it did you absolutely no harm whatsoever – you could be happy, healthy and effective without ever once reading a newspaper, watching TV news etc.
It doesn’t just do you no harm, it’s a very positive move to reject the MSM in its entirety.
Couldn’t agree more…..well said. A lot of people’s problems emanate from the cess pool of popular media. Stop watching, reading and paying attention to the scumbags and life does become a lot less stressful.
Agreed. Why waste hot air on a balloon filled with hot air.
Thank you Rhys. It’s what critical thinkers need. That old movie “Blast From The Past” is good for a laugh and shows that being cut off from the world and its MSM for many years is a great blessing.
Too true ! It also frees your time to spend it , hours daily, reading – and commenting on – sites like Offguardian. A win-win something !
Your alternative update on #COVID19 for 2023-02-04. #mRNA gene therapy – Moderna et al admitted it. Masks Do Nothing Stop CV & They Knew It All Along (blog, gab, tweet).
Proving again how the new-age and political is full aligned.
Im sure woke alt right Joseph p Farrell will be pimping this ‘UFO Roswell could be’ to his devotee’s and how team intergalactic Team Trump is sending us coded messages.
This balloon thing isnt necessarily about the chicom believers, this also feeds that massive market of ancient aliens Tv mysteries crowd.
Not forgetting this lot.

America and democracy don’t sit well in the same sentence
That was as funny as the Saturday Night Live cold open skit about the stupid balloon. Thanks for the laugh.

No.

No.
Can you make infinite growth on a finite planet work?
No.
Can you shout “deadly virus” and then follow up with all sorts of efforts, diverting peoples focus away from the real problems?
Yes.
Don’t forget the demonise Russia and Ukraine bit.
I knew it. The Prisoner was predictive programming — now confirmed! Balloon meet Patrick McGoohan (who represents humanity). Only half joking. https://search.brave.com/images?q=the%20prisoner%20patrick%20mcgoohan%20white%20balloon&source=web
Well the ABC in Australia are cheering for the USA and this stupidity and still maundering that people are dying from covid and no one cares.
Australia is currently ramping up for a racism balloon with the UN covertly supporting growing militant indigenous groups.
This white balloon is clearly part of a racist agenda!
Nothing like a good dose of emotional blackmail (whitemale?) to confuse and divide the people. How about a big black balloon boondoggle for further distraction/confusion/division?
Balloons are usually full of hot air (like me)!
Globophobia. Fear porn’s packing more hot air than ever.

Alexander Mercouris has more informative thoughts on the this and other stratospheric overflights in living memory. He admits it was a minor incident but not exactly a nothingburger — it was a diplomatic message to discourage an unwelcome guest without actually issuing a rude refusal.

How about the balloon as carrier of the new(est) covid strain? That should be enough to guarantee another couple of years of pandemic porn.
More plausible than a bat or a door handle, that’s for sure!
Great idea George. And they will be able to make a few hollywood movies out of it too. You should be on their payroll.
Yeah. The balloon never stood a chance.
