Ted Turner Contributes to the Depopulation Agenda!

by | May 10, 2026 | Newsletter | 27 comments

It’s been quite a year for the Chicken Little overpopulation fearmongers.

First they lost Overpopulation Bomb propagandist and pseudoscience charlatan Paul Ehrlich.

And now they’ve lost Ted Turner.

That’s right, Ted Turner (everyone’s least-favourite media mogul) kicked the bucket this week at the ripe old age of 87. He is survived by five children, fourteen grandchildren and two great-grandchildren—a family whose size, it must be admitted, is rather odd for a depopulation enthusiast who advocated for a one-child policy. But that’s how things roll for the neo-Malthusians: plenty of progeny for me, only one for thee!

So, who was Ted Turner, really? And what does his death actually mean for the depopulation agenda of the globalist jet set?

Let’s find out!

    • So do I, AnimalsArentFood. So do I. Are you referring to both illustrations: the ghoulish graveyard scene and the signed James Corbett cartoon?

      Hats off to James for revealing yet another of his talents — namely, dreaming up and drawing political cartoons. (Perhaps, with Broc’s assistance, he used software like Adobe Illustrator or an AI-powered generator, of which there are many, I see from my search of same.)

      In his second comment below, HomeRemedySupply mentions James’ “cartoonish propaganda” hyperlink that opens to an ABC News Report video about “The Good Club,” posted by The Deep Archive channel. By contrast, I think Corbett has created, not “cartoonish propaganda,” but a #PropagandaWatch cartoon! 😉

  1. James You have excelled yourself yet again…THIS is some of your finest work…& funniest! Cheers

  2. James Corbett writes:
    “…what we are not fighting individuals but an ideology.
    An ideology of death and power and control.
    And, sadly, that ideology is not being laid to rest in a coffin unless and until we wake up to the true nature of the struggle:
    a struggle for freedom against those who seek our enslavement….”

  3. Those Corbett Hypertext Links can contain some really cool and profound stuff.
    For example: Under “The Good Club!” section is the hypertext cartoonish propaganda. That “The Deep Archive” YouTube Channel also contains other archived “conspiracy” videos.

    “The Good Club!” got together in May of 2009.
    The “cartoonish propaganda” video is entitled: Secret Billionaire “Good Club” Meeting ABC News Report.
    What stood out for me was the word “BILLION dollars”.
    The newscaster names seven people and talks about their collective money. He says:
    “They are worth more than $125 billion dollars.”
    Remember, this was 17 years ago this month.
    And…
    The Great Financial Crisis generally covered 2007 through 2009.

    Some things have changed since May 2009.
    Now-a-days, a “BILLION dollars” ain’t squat for the elite.

    May 10, 2026 – Corporation Values – The Trillion Dollar Dozen
    — 33.6 trillion dollars combined value —

    GOOGL Alphabet Inc. — $4.81T
    GOOG Alphabet Inc. — $4.78T
    NVDA NVIDIA Corporation — $4.78T
    AAPL Apple Inc. — $4.22T
    MSFT Microsoft Corporation — $3.08T

    TSLA Tesla, Inc. — $1.50T
    BRK.B Berkshire Hathaway Inc. — $1.05T
    WMT Walmart Inc. — $1.04T

    —-TOTAL = 33.6 trillion dollars

    As of early May 2026, the total U.S. national debt is approximately $38.93 trillion.
    This figure represents the cumulative amount of money the federal government has borrowed to cover yearly budget deficits, which amounts to roughly $114,000 per person in the United States.

    The M2 U.S. money supply is about 3 times what it was in 2008.

    • Thank you for all those up-to-date figures, HRS. You always find important information on the most relevant and revealing websites. It’s fascinating that the total of the Trillion Dollar Dozen’s corporate values comes so close to the US national debt.

      • Thanks CQ.

        Say, are you still down in the southeast part of the state, Houston area?…gett’in ready for another hot, sticky, humid summer?

        • I am NEVER prepared for a hot, sticky summer, HRS, no matter WHERE I am. But I’ll endure it with a smile when it arrives, just as you always do up near Dallas. 😉

    • Insane Euphoria in the AI Tech Sector

      I would be remiss if I did not mention the historic, record-breaking, insane euphoria in the stock market during these recent weeks.
      All the stock traders are talking about it.

      Within a 52 week period (one year), the percentage of price change for many stocks has been outrageously high.
      Taking the low and the high prices of that 52 week period gives a % of change.
      If the number is 100%, it basically means that one could double their money. (If buying low and selling high.)
      If the number is 1000%, then one could 10 times their money.

      Parabolic Semiconductor Rally Is Pricing In 2028 Already
      [Visuals in article.]
      https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/parabolic-semiconductor-rally-is-pricing-in-2028-already/

      EXCERPTS
      The parabolic semiconductor rally crossed a line this week. SOXX…That’s a gain of roughly 244% from the April 2025 low…
      …The chart is now textbook parabolic. And parabolic charts almost never end politely…

      …Look across the complex, and the dispersion is striking. Micron is up nearly 1,000% off its April 2025 low. AMD is up roughly 450%. Nvidia, the index’s anchor, is up “only” 140%…

      …this parabolic semiconductor rally is now being driven by the names with the worst fundamentals, not the best…

      …here is the problem with the current setup.
      A real fundamental story doesn’t require a parabolic chart to validate it. In fact, fundamentals tend to drag prices up the trend line, not push them through the ceiling.
      When a “shortage” narrative arrives at the same moment that the worst-quality names in the sector are leading the index higher, that’s not fundamentals at work.
      That’s the narrative being recycled to justify a move that has already happened. Indeed, the parabolic semiconductor rally we’re seeing right now bears almost none of the hallmarks of a fundamentals-led advance….

      • That’s one fine overview, homie. The tech industry is going to some really strange places.

        BTW, here’s what “AI” does to people (who were likely not very stable to begin with, but still)

        • By the way, I’m leery of any guy who paints his fingernails.
          I swear that when I watch the part with Mustafa Suleyman, the CEO of Microsoft AI, that he has his nails painted.

        • mkey,

          In the May 16th Corbett newsletter, James refers to that video.

          EXCERPT
          And there’s “AI is Sending People into Psychosis,” a recent viral video by YouTuber Vanessa Wingardh presenting the experiences of some of the people who dealt with their own chatbot-induced psychosis.

          The Claude Delusion
          https://corbettreport.com/the-claude-delusion/

          • Yup, I’ve seen it. I’m still recoverying from the surprise caused by the Saturday newsletter. It flipped my weekend on its head.

    • Scamdemic style Supply Chains

      Potatoes up 700% in one month.
      Sulfur costs up near 80% in two months.

      Oil prices remain elevated.

      Potatoes traded flat at 18.50 EUR/100KG on May 11, 2026.
      Over the past month, Potatoes’s price has risen 704.35%, and is up 34.06% compared to the same time last year, according to trading on a contract for difference (CFD) that tracks the benchmark market for this commodity.

      From the March 1st range of 3900 per tonne…Sulfur futures surged to a record high of CNY 7,050 per tonne as the Middle East conflict disrupted a key link in the global fertilizer supply chain. Almost half of global sulfur production comes from the region, and the near closure of the Strait of Hormuz has sharply reduced shipments, tightening availability. Sulfur is a critical input for sulfuric acid, which is widely used in phosphate fertilizers for crops such as corn and soybeans. Supply conditions were already strained before the conflict due to strong industrial demand, particularly from the mining sector, where sulfuric acid is used in metal extraction, as well as export restrictions from major producers including China and Russia. With fertilizer producers now competing with industrial users for limited supply, some output has already been cut and inventories are under pressure, increasing the risk of further disruptions across agricultural and industrial markets.

      • I know about “running out of money.”

        Last week, I again made the one-way 30-minute drive to the next small town for shopping. At the Walmart checkout I had a very nice conversation with the cashier and asked her what days were the busiest.
        Her answer was somewhat the same as the Kraft Heinz CEO. When Social Security checks/government benefits arrive were also busy times of the month.

        Kraft Heinz CEO: “Consumers Are Literally Running Out Of Money Toward The End Of The Month”

        EXCERPTS
        …“They’re literally running out of money at the end of the month,” Kraft Heinz CEO Steve Cahillane said in an interview with the WSJ . “We’re seeing negative cash flows in the lower-income brackets where they’re dipping into savings.”…

        …“The war in Iran amplified consumer concerns about the cost of living,” Whirlpool. CEO Marc Bitzer said Thursday on a call with analysts. The maker of washers and dryers said it’s counting on purchases picking up after a harsh US winter slowed shopping, but the war caused a collapse in consumer sentiment. The company described the resulting 15% hit to industry demand as similar to the global financial crisis in the aughts. In other words a depression…

        McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski said confidence among shoppers isn’t improving and may be getting worse. The company cited “heightened anxiety” and gas prices that disproportionately impact low-income consumers…

  4. >>>And just because Turner’s dead doesn’t mean that the media behemoth he gave birth to will stop dumbing down the public or propagandizing the masses with climate fearmongering.>>

    Can’t blame Turner, Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Medicine, Big everything or anything that is taking humanity on a downward spiral of addictions to celebrity, alcohol, sugar, gossip, etc. because these days people have a choice with the vast amount of blogs and such putting out the info about all this.

    PEOPLE make decisions and there is probably some study that will verify that when faced with choices the human default is laziness, gluttony, sexual, greed and the such.

    From my recent recovery from some lung disorder, part of it has been couch potato viewing of not one Network except the NFL, but thousands of youtube SHORTS and videos that reveal there are some amazing folks sharing the air with us. And yes, many can be AI or greedy for “clicks” and such but the remote can “click” them away.

    Probably the best things that could happen for humanity besides a solar EMP blast would be the elimination of most of the departments in our bloated government like the ATF, IRS, CIA, Dept of Ed, a highly reduced FBI, no lobbyists, term limits, no dual citizenships, one Federal Court per state, gagging the Supreme Court to just do their job and not legislate, no Pork promises for votes and $$, no intrusion into private land ownership or taxes on such, you buy it and do what you want within common sense or community standards; immediate closing of the borders and any immigration for 10 years to straighten out the shit that has come down on us.
    Ah, but that will never happen and we will be yet another nation/empire to die in flames and starvation.,

  5. Terrible Ted bites the dust. Good riddance to probably the biggest prick I’ve ever encountered. In 1988 Ted came to the trading desk at the investment banking stock trading firm Robinson-Humphrey were I was the operations manager, with a film crew in tow. Was there to film a promo sales pitch for new stock offering of Turner Broadcasting class A & B stock. The bastard thought we would spoil the best camera angle so he ordered us to leave the trading floor so they could film the piece. I told him we can’t leave during trading, and he sent us away regardless with a “Ah well come back tomorrow then”. What a turd-muncher.

    • mspann, I remember you talking about that.

      QUOTE from James Corbett’s ‘Ted Turner Contributes to the Depopulation Agenda!’…

      “And let’s not forget the personal stories of Turner’s superficial and degrading business decisions related by Corbett Report members.”
      HYPERTEXT LINK (Aug 2025) – https://corbettreport.com/nwnw599/#comment-181057

  6. He’d have had to put his prices up a fair bit to make all his billions out of 250 million people world wide. Even if they all lived in USA he wouldn’t have had the same customer base.

  7. Yes , he was another complicated man. Not perfect to be sure but he could self correct. I asked Google “what’s the worst thing ted turner ever did to humanity?
    1. Unsuccessful Business Decisions”:
    2. Inflammatory Rhetoric”:
    3. Mocking Religion:
    4. 9/11 Comments:
    These of course pale in comparison to his firing of Atlanta Braves Baseball Manager Bobby Cox. However Turner said it was his mistake and he rehired him. Self correcting as I said.
    Bobby ( 84 )Died Saturday May 9th, 2026. He has the distinction of holding the record of most ejections of any manager in baseball history . He will be missed greatly . Ted ( 87 ) on the other hand , not so much.

  8. Now what’s the number ? How many are left, men or ideologies that can convert from bad too good? Our thoughts add up. To get rid of ideologies, unlike men, the energy of the ideology has to be converted. It can’t be killed , it only can be converted. Maybe men don’t need to be killed but converted. Men turn to dust eventually. Where do ideologies go in their conversations?
    WHATS THE NUMBER NOW MKEY?

    At the time I started writing this comment, there were 15 comments on this article. After cleaning the text content a bit, I’m counting 1410 words and 7864 characters total, making it 94 words and 524 characters per post.

    On the other hand, YouBoob currently states there are 244 comments. After cleaning the text using the same criteria as above, I’m getting 5084 words and 30881 characters. Making it less than 21 words and less than 127 characters per comment. Comments over there have a lot more emojis, though.

    Now, I’m not saying that longer winded commentary is in any way more valuable than shorter, down to the point comments. But there is an indication that people here invest about 4-5x the effort into writing their comments, when compared to YouBoob.

    Mkey,
    What observational skills you process.
    Late last night I was quacking about having found a book that addressed some discussions that were going on about the process of thought. Not everyone uses hierarchical thinking here but most seem to. The book hypothesizes thought flows from the higher, metaphysical zero point to the lower, base, physical world where we experience this flow, or conversion. Yooboob is where the street meets the controllers. The thought processes are more circular there. Controllers got the big numbers, got people chasing their tails. Here we get the Mkey and their type of hierarchical thinking. I have reached the acceptable amount of characters ,words and characters now to wrap up my observations of your astute observations. Youboob is the belch after the meal , the brain food turned from a solid into a gas… The Corbett Report is where the conservation of energy is transformed into energy for creative flight. The news you can use. It’s all there in the numbers. Can you see it, the conversion, I think I can.

  9. (The other) JC, boomer – it’s 2026. You expect me to (I’m not going to) read-all-that/I’m happy-for-you/or-sorry-that-happened, tho? How about investing in Speechify and giving your illiterate audience members an AI-generated audio link for your voluminous treatises on War & Peace?

  10. Wow!

    I remember when Captain Planet came out in the late 80s. Being a Gen Xer – I grew up during the “golden age” of cartoon entertainment for kids – everything from Thundercats to GI Joe to Transformers.

    When this cartoon came out – even as a kid I thought it was a joke. What kid would watch this crap?

    But, I was a Gen Xer – evidently it’s a favorite of Millennials.

    This article and the references opened my eyes to the blatant propaganda of this joke of a cartoon. I had no idea – thanks for this insight!

    And of course, you’re right…even if Ted Turner is “ding dong the wicked witch is dead” – it looks like Leo Dicaprio is right behind him to act his replacement – that is – until this ideology is dead.

    Great work James, as always!
