Long Comms: Smoking

Where there's smoke, there's fire.

What does it mean to smoke?

Why do people smoke?

Where do people smoke?

How do people smoke?

Is smoking good or bad? Healthy or unhealthy?

What does it mean to “smokum’ peace pipe”?

First, to understand smoking in media, watch this:

Alright, you get why smoking is a useful prop in Hollywood now?

Good, now what “scenes” does smoking help as a prop?

Conversation.

Not just any conversation — serious conversations. Contemplative thoughts. Speaking frankly in a world of illusions, lies, deceit, fraud, and cons. They’re to denote a time when two actors on stage who are regularly seen going for one another’s throats in public can let loose their hair or ties, smile, light a cigarette, pat each other on the back, and shoot the shit without all the tension demanded of their public personas.

In other words, lighting a cigarette is the universal sign for “dropping character.”

Whether you’re supposed to be the goody-two-shoes or the WWE heel, if you ever just want to go out for a night on the town and be yourself you need only put up a cloud of smoke, and just like that no one can make out the “real you” that they’ve come to know in media through all the haze in the air. The liquor, dim lights of the night club, and bouncer keeping all the rabble off you take care of the rest.

In the golden age of Hollywood, offering someone a light as a way of introduction offered an opportunity to speak to someone while their guard was down. With cigarette in hand or mouth, an individual makes themselves vulnerable for a good 5-10 minutes so they can take a drag and calm their nerves. There’s never a better time to try to make a good first impression. Formality is put aside, and people can just be people — not the masquerades they have to be to survive in a shame-driven society.

How many deep conversations have started with the words “You got a light?”

Types of Smoking

Cigarettes are the most popular form of smoking by far. Today, however, we see “vapes” as the fast-growing techy replacement. For now, let’s focus on antiquity.

Cigarettes, or fags as the fellas across the pond would say, are dried tobacco leaves rolled in a thin paper and plugged at one end with a filter of some kind, denoted by a “blunt” end with colored paper. The filter is usually some form of cotton which serves to block the majority of tar and heavy flakes of leaves, allowing one to “drag” only the nicotine-filled smoke through the cotton, acting as a typical filter.

For the more “cultured” folk, some would even opt for cigars, pipes, hookahs, and cabrioles.

The less cultured opted for chewing cud and snorting snuff.

Menthols, for those who want to smoke fast and worry about the burn later.

All can come in filtered or unfiltered, by various means of implementation, but the filtered cigarette is far more common.

No matter which poison you pick, or what oral fixation you prefer, each are perfect catalysts for frank conversation.

Each type of smoking denotes a different “feel” for the conversation.

For example, the learned scholar, wizened professor, or Sherlock-inspired detective would opt for the pipe.

A rough and tumble sailor, boxer, or soldier might prefer a cigar.

A dainty woman concerned about keeping her nails and hands preserved might go for the lanky cabriole to displace the heat.

Hookahs and “peace pipes” or other such foreign items are reserved for the more tribal and “down to earth” sorts.

The use, especially in cinema, sets entirely different scenes for the dialogue. From each of these we can establish terms with solid definitions reinforced by tradition and media.

Filtered = Watching your language. No cursing, no talking about the Cabal, only topics that can “contain” the more disgusting aspects of “doing business.” The “tar” in the lungs.

Unfiltered = Not watching your language. Cursing, insulting, shooting the shit, and generally engaging in “dirty talk” amongst like-minded individuals who can tolerate the pollutants(nasty subjects) in the air(rumors/gossip).

Cigar = Frank and to the point conversation. Unfiltered and typically expensive. Conversations designed to be put out and relit at a better time, to “pick back up on the conversation.” Primarily, only important matters that have to be said quickly and concisely without the “added fluff” and filters to keep the message from being received in full. Lives usually depend on cigar-talk, but it’s not unusual for “poker buddies” to touch on important subjects in their personal life when the chips are down. If cigarettes are speaking frankly, cigars are putting this bluntly.

Cigarette = Typical, everyday candid conversations. Usually filtered, but sometimes the filter comes off and nasty things are said. It can be about relationships, business, or otherwise. It’s what politicians, lawyers, businessmen, and other such “dignitaries” talk about behind closed doors, in parlors full of smoke and liquor. Conversations are usually brief, compared to others, and last no longer than someone on smoke break at work. You talk, get to the point, leave the formalities at the door, and then snuff it out with your shoe and get back to work.

Pipe = Smoking a pipe is a sort of ritual, like preparing points for a debate or book club. There are various archaic steps involved to get into the “right mind” for smoking a pipe. Just as have to source your own tobacco, an armchair intellectual with pipe in hand has to come up with discussion topics for group discussion. Planners and puzzle solvers prefer the pipe, and the topics of their discussions are of the most theoretical nature. Philosophical or even mystical, when you bring out the pipe and tin of tobacco, everyone expects you to soon wax poetically in front of a modestly warm hearth. No other form of smoking is more associated with “blowing shapes” with the smoke. Even the lowly corn-cob pipe smoker will surprise you with little puff clouds of wisdom now and then. Symbols reside within the clouds.

Cabriole = Easily the most antiquated at this point, the thin, long straw you shove a cigarette into so that you can protect your fancy nails and soft fingers from the smoke are best expressed by the stereotype — uptight women in furs and flapper gowns rolling their eyes and remarking on the current fashion of the day along with gossiping about their high-brow rivals. Only the most feminine, stuck-up, pompous, fashion-focused or in-vogue of conversations are considered where a cabriole is involved. They speak of gossip, trends, and speak in such icy non-specifics that you question if they’re even talking about the same thing as you — deflecting and keeping their true opinions at length, just as the cabriole keeps the fire away from the fingers. Discussions are often insufferable on account of this. There’s a reason they fell out of fashion…

Hookah/Peace Pipe = Conversations where people take turns speaking in a clear round-robin format. Think of it like the conch shell in Lord of the Flies or the feather often used in Boy Scout camp meetings. The aim is to give everyone an equal time to speak and air their concerns, even sometimes forcing the quiet members to speak so that everyone knows everyone else is on the same page. The only way to “make peace” is to have everyone play their hands instead of keeping them hid away. If you can’t speak among “friends” and not feel safe airing your opinions, then there can not be peace among the “tribes.” You take turns, pass-um’ peace pipe, and everyone knows where everyone else stands on the topics.

Vape = Conversations akin to cigarettes, but in the “modern” format. DM’s, message boards, private chats, instant messengers — things like Discord, Skype, Zoom, Groupchats, Snapchat, etc. are the necessary analogues for vaping in the more modern methods of discussion. It’s the wild west, with none of the various rules and regulations that cigarettes and other tobacco-based products have had brought against them. Vape gets around the rules, and the most notable aspect is the much larger ‘cloud’ produced in its use. Think: Internet Cloud. Anonymity is key in this fledgling, new form of smoking.

Cud/Chew = The lowest of low forms of conversation. While information is transmitted, most “cultured” people wouldn’t waste their time trying to sift through the various quips and one-liners that cud-chewers will occasionally lob out into their spittoons. It’s the “white trash” or “trailer trash” type of conversations. It’s not really smoking, but tobacco is tobacco…

Mentholated = Because of the association with Black Americans, mentholated likely refers to conversations heavily laden with slang. “Ebonics” makes it difficult for the Cabal to understand urban minorities, and so calls to ban mentholated cigarettes is a call to ban all minority, urban, gang, etc. groups from having open conversations. As menthols have a “numbing” sensation, you can liken the tired, slurred speech patterns of black youth as having a “numb” mouth, lips, and tongue. In other words, they can’t enunciate words because they’re too “numb” in their speech patterns. Basically, it’s the cud/chew for black people.

Nicotine

Stimulants. What is a stimulant?

What would a “stimulant” be in terms of conversation?

Topics. Prompts. Ideas.

Stimulants “perk you up” and get you jabbering. You hear something you have an opinion on, and you can’t help but plopping down your two cents.

They get you thinking, pondering, viewing things from a new angle. They help get you up and moving after a long, hard sleep. Caffeine does the same, but Nicotine is the next step up. It’s the dopamine hit as you sit idle waiting for someone to comment on your post or reply to your message.

It’s you sitting up at night staring at your DMs waiting for that new little chat blurb to come in.

It’s a catalyst for getting over a “writer’s block.”

This is all necessary for good conversation. You need good prompts and good responses. You need a quick wit, and a way to hasten your thought processes is to get hyped up on stimulants. It’s addictive, though, because once you are on a roll, coming down is a real buzz kill.

Nicotine does its job in helping generate new conversations. People smoke to get the nicotine, sure, but if it was just to get the stimulant then why not just take some pills? Why not just up the ante and snort some nose candy?

Because smoking — because having a conversation, is half the benefit of the act. Putting yourself in situations where you can generate new ideas, among colleagues who can criticize your ideas as they come to you, that’s invaluable. In the olden days, you’d do so in a parlor filled with smoke. Nowadays, it’s in front of a computer or tablet with an energy drink or vape canister.

Stimulants don’t make the ideas, mind you, they just help your body keep up with the speed your mind is generating them at. There are other drugs for “coming up with ideas” but that’s another topic.

Cancer

We all know the big thing associated with smoking is cancer.

They’ve spared no expense, in fact, to drill that into our ears. Why did the tobacco companies have a sudden falling out with the Cabal? How did we go from “your doctor’s preferred brand” to “smoking is the leading cause of cancer”?

Well, two reasons. One in practicality, the other in Comms.

First off, the tobacco we have today is no the tobacco of our forefathers. Smoking anything, even lettuce, can scar your lungs and effect your constitution, but the tobacco of yesteryear is nowhere near as potent or toxic as the strains grown today. They’ve bred and genetically modified tobacco to have a precise level of nicotine AND toxins. Then they ban any alternative, especially home grown. Why is that?

Because THEY made tobacco more toxic.

It’s the same scam that’s old as time.

The people investing in tobacco are the same people investing in cancer research. They turned on the money tap — creating a problem they alone claim to have the solution for.

In reality, we have the cure for cancer. We have several, in fact. However, if those cures came to public knowledge the entire medical industry would crumble into ruin overnight. That would extend into textbooks, research papers, laboratories, think tanks, and all other adjacent industries. That doesn’t somehow make smoking a good thing, mind you, as an addiction is an addiction. Regardless, the cures not only target cancer, but a lot of other debilitating diseases; diseases also caused by the damned poison they’ve put in everything from the air, to the water, to the food.

Now, let’s touch on cancer in terms of Comms.

Cancer refers to “corruption in your organization.” For the Cabal, it would look like having second thoughts about what they’re actually doing. Disillusionment with the concept of “the ends justify the means.” Cancer is people working against their “employer.” It begins as a slow creep at first, but eventually there are tumors popping up left and right.

Those “tumors” threaten to displace organs and put pressure on the brain.

We’re talking mutiny here. The “brains” of the outfit being pressured and overthrown by some “tumors,” some figures growing within your organization that the disgruntled employees are rallying behind. For White Hats cancer is strictly insurgency and corruption. For the Cabal, they see it more as a power struggle. They ARE the corruption, after all.

Cancer = Mutiny.

Tumors = Usurpers.

So, how does “smoking” in terms of “conversation” relate to cancer?

Simple; when your employees talk with one another, they might share stories about their time working in the organization. This may spark ideas of mutiny. Grievances come to light, and a case builds against the leader. After a long train of abuses, eventually they band together around a figure they think would do a better job, and suddenly the whole organization gets “sick.”

Sounds a bit like a union, don’t it?

Anyways, that’s cancer in brief. It’s why you gotta stop smoking everywhere, because we can’t have people coming down with cancer. “It will stress the medical system!”

If they really cared about that, McDonalds would be dead already…

But, the subject in question is smoking in public more than individual concerns.

When you “smoke” in public, you risk people catching a whiff of your more intimate conversations. As we entered into the technological age of cameras and recording devices, it’s pretty clear why the PSA went out to the Cabal to stop smoking. That, and the racket with the medical collusion in poisoning us to sell us an intentionally ineffective “cure” in chemo-therapy and radiation was becoming FAR too apparent.

Stop Smoking In Public, there are Cameras everywhere!

As cameras became a commonplace thing, and you could process a Polaroid instantly, it became really problematic for the Cabal to speak about their schemes and disdain for the sheep so openly. Recording devices furthered that issue. Pictures of people who shouldn’t be so chummy with one another is one thing, having a fully recorded conversation of Cabal figures talking about raping children and planning to destroy all economic competition is another.

So, don’t smoke. ANYWHERE! Even in your own homes. It could be bugged, right? Everything had to go to being encoded in Comms. Even small stuff. The paranoia was in full-swing, and the anti-smoking campaign got the entire weight of Hollywood behind it.

Who else would know more about cameras and recording devices?

And, just like that, centuries of smoking culture was on the chopping block. Along with it, all the night club, parlors, fancy shindigs, and hootin’nannies of the Cabal along with them.

NO MORE SMOKING!

You’re on candid camera!

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. So you better not be caught smoking, aye?

Conversations that get to “heated” turn into venting, which is bad for the Cabal.

You can’t be seen making any mistakes in public. You can’t show them your vices. You have to be squeaky clean; a clean bill of health. No more long conversations dragging into the night. No more chatting about old times and hijinks. No more carrying on like a silver-spoon nepo-baby soiling your royal oats one night on the town at a time.

Of course, then you have the more specific aspects of the smoking campaign, like banning smoking in film, or just giving it an 18+ rating just for lighting one up. This was a minor concession, to allow 18+ events the Cabal like to frequent to permit conversation. No cameras are allowed to be there anyways, and if you’re found out to wired during an adrenochrome fueled child rape orgy on an island somewhere, you’re a dead man anyways.

This backfired, however, because now the ONLY place you can talk to Cabal folk about your real opinions on Cabal business without having to use an overbearing amount of Comms ARE on those sex dungeon islands and the totally non-existent basements of pizza parlors. Because that’s the only place you can air your grievances and talk frankly. Those who aren’t as gung-ho about child rape and just want to talk business have absolutely no avenue to “let off some steam” or in this case, smoke. They all gotta go to the sex dungeons for just about everything.

So, then they tried to make “designated smoking zones” outside, because it’s very hard to use a sonar device to record if there aren’t flat surfaces around. Wind and traffic often helped ruin the recordings of wire taps for free, so that helped. Golf and outdoor concerts were the preferred venues, but eventually even they have gotten far too “busy” to permit them as “designated smoking zones.” Technology is just getting far too good to risk it anymore. When some goober in his garage can wire up a sonar device using a smart phone and some elbow grease, you’re well and truly screwed if you want to not get caught “smoking” in public. That, and too many people are “wired in” to the news cycle, what with YouTube enabling independent content creators, that practically anyone can ruin your “smoke break.”

So, back to the child-rape orgy dens for ALL opportunities for conversation…

Just like an addict who hasn’t had a smoke in a week, they begin to get itchy and paranoid. They’re so high-strung they’ve even begun to imagine things. Seeing shapes and figures among the smoke clouds.

It’s funny because they did it to themselves…

Other than that, we know of a few Democrat “smokers” who can’t buck the habit. Obama historically smokes a lot, which is the Cabal criticizing him for hosting too many revealing parties full of Cabal conversation as President and even now at his Martha’s Vineyard compound.

Smoke Signals

Just as you can spot animals in clouds, you can see all manner of shapes and forms in cigarette smoke. Smoking allows one to signal to others. A tap of the ash tray. A rolling of the cigarette between your fingers.

Just as the old Native Americans would sit next to a campfire with wet blanket and various forms of leaves to put out messages using the smoke, smoking developed an intricate system of communications, not unlike how Freemasons use hand and body signs. Shoving a hand in between the buttons of your suit and tapping the cigarette at the blunt end to “pack it” become symbols one can use to read a character archetype.

The various mannerisms develop an atmosphere surrounding the scene, letting you know the emotional state of the individual… as well as their potential allegiances.

This gives way to smoking “tropes” like lighting one up after sex. Post coitus smoking is used to calm the nerves after a “performance” and the stimulant helps them from just nodding off, which I’m told isn’t very respectful after you hit it.

It can also just be used to imply the sexual activity having occurred without needing to show the steamy scene explicitly.

In Comms, if you see two people leave a room smoking, you can be sure that the conversation had some degree of a “deal” being discussed. A “transaction” took place, and an exchange of favors implied.

Sex = Making a deal.

After the heated discussion, both parties take out a cigarette and talk frankly, their “tough-guy” personas disarmed, so they can resolve any lingering tensions that might have occurred in the “negotiation” process.

Smoking after Sex = Resolving tensions/stress after an interaction.

Other than sex, there’s also uses of smoking that can insult, such as blowing smoke in someone’s face. During a conversation, blowing smoke as someone is talking to you indicates that you neither respect them nor what they have to say. It’s a taunt and a way to call their bluff. A wise guy is talking tough? Blow smoke in his face and see if he will put his money where his mouth is:

In conversation, it’s the equivalent of talking over someone. If someone comes to confront you about your behavior, deflecting the topic or “putting up smokescreens” is a way to avoid taking responsibility while risking a challenge from the accuser to tell you to stop deflecting, dropping the pretense of the “friendly chat.”

Likewise, “blowing smoke up your ass” is used as an expression to flatter someone disingenuously. To praise them but secretly insult them.

Smoking and Other Vices

Smoking also often is accompanied by two other vices, historically.

Donuts and Coffee.

Coffee = Memo / 4Am Talking Points / Marching Orders

Donuts = Indulgence; a treat for being a good little boy / inexpensive compensation as in “I’ll bet you dollars to donuts…”

Basically, as you start your morning you imbibe two forms of stimulants and a sugary treat to get you ready for a big day. The boss buys a baker’s dozen of donuts to make it seem like he cares about you, when in reality he just wants you to work more. If you buy employees donuts or pizza, then they are less likely to go to lunch. If they work through lunch, with no breaks except to smoke a cigarette, then you get maximum value out of the poor sap before he keels over. If they die of cancer before collecting their pension or retiring, it’s a win-win investment.

A diet of cigarettes, donuts, and coffee…

A favorite for those in a high-stress profession.

Then, there’s also booze.

A lot can be said about someone with a cigarette and shot glass in hand.

It really demonstrates that someone is down on their luck and taken in by their vices. Desperation, really. That’s when someone drops their guard the most and just lets loose on how they really think.

Alcohol / Booze / Drunk = Sharing dirty secrets openly / Dropping character / “Showing your ass.”

Smoke Detectors

Smoke detectors are useful for when you think your conversation is being recorded in some way. It’s a device, or just a trainable habit, to detect whether you’re in a bad place for a candid conversation.

A more prescient concern for the Cabal is that some people can’t “hear” their smoke detectors when the battery is dead.

And by “some people”, I mean almost exclusively black people….

It’s a fast-growing meme to point out that black people, for whatever reason, have no capacity for recognizing that high-pitch chirp that an agonizing smoke detector lets out as it begs for the battery to be changed. Exhibit A:

Now, while there might be some biological proof to that concept, I think it has more to do with Comms. Black people are simply more forward with their beliefs than white people. The stereotype of the loud and obnoxious black character, not concerned about pomp, circumstance, or formalities, lends itself to the idea that black people aren’t very good at filtering their conversations with one another.

In other words, they’ll say stupid things out loud, oblivious to those who might be listening in on their conversations.

That’s a bad thing for someone “working with intelligence agencies.” Loudmouth braggards aren’t long for a life of espionage. They just cannot control their output of “smoke.”

I believe this meme and its growing prominence acted as a PSA to all black people in the Cabal — that they need to shut the fuck up about their deals and where their money is coming from. Loose lips sink ships, and it’s just a fact that black people usually have rather large lips.

This, to this day, is how Democrats view black people — as their property. As a dullard breed of sub-humans fit only for menial labor. Tools to be used and abused.

Which is why they jump at the chance to abuse their… forwardness, shall we say. They do so by putting “token blacks” out on stage to parade them around as bargaining chips. Their natural showmanship and relatability without the “white man’s” snobbish nature detracting from their peers really helps sell black people on supporting the slave drivers that keep them on the mental plantation of the DNC.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I actually think this is an enviable feature of the black community. To be able to say what you really think without giving two shits about what others might say? YES PLEASE! White people could definitely use more of that, especially white women who seemingly cannot help but be peer pressured into helping the Democrat party dominate their minds and bodies with feminist doctrines that spoil the soul and chain the psyche to an empathy farm aka “virtue signaling.”

The problem is, however, that black folks also have the predisposition to fall for the “free stuff” clause in every scam that’s used against them. Honestly, I think they’ve been intentionally bred that way, but that’s neither here nor there for this discussion.

Again, this is about smoking.

Black people smoke, too, right? Actually, they have a pretty strict stereotype of preferring mentholated cigarettes.

So when we hear about O’Biden trying to ban menthols, what is really being said?

Well, to put it bluntly, he tried to get black constituents in his administration to “shut the fuck up.”

They’re too chatty. They’re too brazen. Even the “numbing” of the mentholated cigarette isn’t enough to stop others from overhearing their boasting about rigging elections and their criminal rackets in Blue, urban cities.

As you would expect, it didn’t go very well for him. Minorities are currently carrying water for the Democrat party, and this “biting the hand that feeds you” snap back of O’Biden really didn’t sit well with a demographic that already feels pretty damned used both politically and spiritually. They helped rig the election in key states for O’Biden, and all they got for it was an influx of illegal immigrants to come in and replace them.

I mean, for anyone paying attention, that scheme was pretty damn obvious. The “Great Replacement Theory” applies to black people more than white, really. They’ve run their course and have been proven to the Democrats to be far too unruly, technologically illiterate, and unabashedly loud-mouthed to be trusted any further. The plan is and always has been to “phase them out” with abortion centers and the destruction of the father unit in the nuclear family.

Memes about smoke detectors are just there to demoralize them more — getting them to be more violent towards white people for their “noticing” and force the hand of a color revolution.

“Racist” as a slur has become old hat, so it’s time to move on to something else.

A few more things…

And that’s mostly it for smoking.

It means having a conversation. Candid conversations, you typically wouldn’t want the public to hear, whether filtered or unfiltered.

Sometimes conversations can be had just to throw up smokescreens — talking about something sensitive to distract from what’s really going on. Think like a Hollywood screenwriter, and you can see just how smoking can be used to “ease tensions” before a big fake-out and escalation in tension.

Other than that, I just want to say that I appreciate all the support thus far. I don’t promote this Substack in any capacity, so I rely solely on people sharing what they find valuable here with others on whatever social media outlets or forums you frequent. I put a lot of work into this one, so if you think it is helpful to understand the current Comms landscape, and think it’s a good minor “primer” to get people discussing this obtuse form of cryptography, whether or not you believe I’m accurate or if “Cabal Comms” is going on at all, a share would be appreciated.

Smoking is one of those things I think people already understand can be used as a communications device. So maybe it’s a good first lesson?
