This article is obviously in draft, but there are some serious breakthroughs in it, namely:
The 27% decrease in the divorce rate in Australia and the United States from 1980 to 2015 was identical.
I've already proven that fish growth rates peaked regardless of geography at the same time.
The documents and the data will work across one another.
I'm not even finished integrating all of my previous articles into the master document. I still have almost two year's-worth to go.
I'm going to keep going macro, and seeing what surfaces. Someone could take off and run with just analyzing the decreasing divorce data, and make a career of it.
Oh, that reminds me. Anyone in other cultures who can send me stories (translated into English), that would help expand the research effort. You know the words "mystery", "baffled" and "puzzled", but in Swedish, and cross-referenced against whales. Or whatever.
The divorce rate in Sweden. Yada.
Much Mahalo's.
DECREASING DIVORCE RATES/INCREASING MARRIAGE RATES
"Honest pioneer work in the field of science has always been, and will continue to be, life's pilot. On all sides, life is surrounded by hostility. This puts us under an obligation."
- Wilhelm Reich
(Wilhelm Reich)
"I like the scientific spirit—the holding off, the being sure but not too sure, the willingness to surrender ideas when the evidence is against them: this is ultimately fine—it always keeps the way beyond open—always gives life, thought, affection, the whole man, a chance to try over again after a mistake—after a wrong guess.”
― Walt Whitman, Walt Whitman's Camden Conversations, 1895
(Walt Whitman)
Great positive changes are underway at every level of our reality. They began in earnest in 2012, and have been increasing in speed and magnitude. I began writing this series of articles, entitled "Positive Changes That Are Occurring", in July of 2013.
These historically-unprecedented positive changes are being driven by many hundreds of thousands, if not millions of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices based on the work of Wilhelm Reich and Karl Hans Welz.
Since Don Croft first fabricated tactical Orgonite in 2000, its widespread, ongoing and ever-increasing distribution has been unknitting and transforming the ancient Death energy matrix built and expanded by our dark masters, well, all the way back to Babylon, and before. And, as a result, the Ether is returning to its natural state of health and vitality.
One of those changes is that divorce rates are decreasing exponentially, regardless of culture or geography.
That’s because moral and mental health vary directly with that of the subject’s etheric environment.
In 2017, the divorce rate in Kansas decreased to the lowest level in the history of the state, 45% below the rate seen in 1966. Kansas.com said “but lawyers thrive as more clients fighting”.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 9 per thousand in 1980 to an all-time of 17.1 per thousand in 1982. That’s a 90% increase in the divorce rate, in two years.
The divorce rate in New Zealand almost doubled from 1980 to 1982. What gives?
“Cable really took off in the 1980s. Cable TV had been around for a long time. People in the mountains would use cable just to get TV reception. A company would put big antennas on mountain tops and then run cables down to the houses in the valleys so that people could watch TV. The same technology also worked in big cities where skyscrapers blocked reception.”
“In the late 1970s, and even simple video game consoles with games like "Pong" were available. Atari released the Atari 2600 in 1977, but sales were slow. In 1979, the 2600 started to gain momentum, and then in 1980 it exploded because of the game "Space Invaders" and falling prices. By 1982, Atari was selling 8 million units a year and video games were everywhere. "Pac-Man," released in 1980, was exploding at the same time.”
I can remember driving with a realtor in the early 1980s. He had the predecessor of the cell phone -- an in-car radio phone. The way this worked was simple. There was a big radio tower in the middle of the city. The car had a big radio in the trunk -- This was a huge 25 watt radio transmitter/receiver. Inside the car was a handset and a button panel that let you choose between one of four different channels. Yes, in the early 1980s, the entire city of Raleigh, NC was served by four radio telephone channels. That's how rare car radio phones were at that time. They were incredibly expensive.
“The Apple I came out in 1976, and the Apple II appeared in 1977. It had a 6502 processor running at 1 MHz. The 6502 was an 8-bit microprocessor chip, and in the Apple II it had a maximum RAM space of 48 kilobytes. (In contrast, today's least expensive Apple, the Mac mini, has a processor that runs at 1.5GHz with a 60-gigabyte hard drive and 512 megabytes of RAM.)
Then in 1982 came the IBM PC. It is hard for us today to realize how big a deal this was, but you have to understand the reputation IBM had at the time. IBM made big, mainframe computers for major corporations. By introducing the PC, IBM gave personal computers real credibility. Since the PC came from IBM, it had a strong reputation behind it.
The IBM PC, although pathetic by today's standards, was very powerful for its time. It had a 16-bit 8088 processor running at 4.77 MHZ. This was a blazing clock speed for the time, almost five times faster than the Apple II or IIe. That, combined with the fact that it could handle 16-bit calculations, combined with the ability to add on the 8087 math co-processor, along with a maximum memory space of 640 kilobytes, made the PC a very powerful machine.”
The divorce rate in New Zealand almost doubled from 1980 to 1982 because of the rapid increase in the purportedly-harmless non-ionizing radiation from what we collectively refer to as “technology”. Moral and mental health vary directly with the subject’s etheric environment.
Each IBM PC, each video game, each brand-new cell phone tower a Death energy flame thrower. Each microwave transmitter pumping what Wilhelm Reich called “Dead Orgone Radiation” into the ether.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 9 per thousand in 1980 to 11.9 in 1981. That’s a 32% increase. Divorce in New Zealand suddenly increased by nearly a third from 1980 to 1981.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 11.9 per thousand in 1981 to the all time high of 17.1 per thousand in 1982. That’s a 30% increase. Two straight years of 30-plus percent increases in the divorce rate.
The divorce rate in Australia decreased 27% from 1980 to 2016. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of .75% over those 36 years.
The divorce rate in the U.S. decreased 26.5% from 1980 to 2015. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of .75% over those 35 years.
The rate of decrease in the divorce rate in Australia and the United States from 1980 to 2015 was identical.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased 25.1% from 17.1 per thousand in 1982 to 12.8 per thousand in 2004. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of over 1.14% over those 22 years.
The average annual decrease from 1982 to 2018 is larger than that seen from 1982 to 2004. The positive change is increasing, going forward in time. That’s because the widespread, ongoing and ever-increasing distribution of simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices is unknitting and transforming the Death energy network built and expanded by our about-to-be-former Dark masters, well, all the way back to Babylon, and before. And the ether is returning to its ages-long state of life and vitality.
(Compare New Zealand 82 to 04 to NZ 82 to 18)
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased 55% from an all-time high of 17.1 per thousand in 1982 to 7.7 per thousand in 2018. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 1.2% over those 36 years.
The last time divorce in New Zealand was below 2018’s total was 1977, with 7.4 per thousand.
The average annual decrease in the divorce rate in New Zealand from 1982 to 2015 was 60% higher during that seen in Australia and the United States because the level of what Wilhelm Reich called “Positive Orgone Radiation” is that much higher in New Zealand than it is in those latter two nations.
That’s because moral and mental health vary directly with that of the subject’s etheric environment.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from an all-time high of 17.0 per thousand in 1982 13.3 per thousand in 1983
(Calculate decrease)
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 13.3 per thousand in 1983 to 12.5 per thousand in 1984. That’s a 6% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12.5 per thousand in 1984 to 11.7 per thousand in 1985. That’s a 6.8% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 11.7 per thousand in 1985 to 11.9 in 1986. That’s a 1.7% increase.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 11.9 per thousand in 1986 to 11.8 per thousand in 1987. That’s a .86% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand remained steady at 11.8 per thousand from 1987 to 1988.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 11.8 per thousand in 1988 to 11.7 in 1989. That’s a .84% decrease. 1989’s rate was the same seen in 1985.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 11.7 per thousand in 1989 to 12.3 in 1990. That’s a 9% increase, the largest one year increase seen since 1980 and 1981. After a few years of stasis against the generally increasing vibrational rate, the purportedly-harmless non-ionizing radiation from what we euphemistically refer to as “technology” is once again gaining traction.
I’m guessing that what we euphemistically know as “technology” was developed to blunt, slow or stop an inexorable increase in the vibrational level of what we know as the Earth, an increase that everyone knew would peak in 2012, going far back into history. Remember, the Mayan “long count” ended in 2012, after which it was believed we’d return to a new Golden Age.
Please recall, “technology” doesn’t just include microwave cable TV transmissions, cell phone traffic, and radar. It’s also high tension power lines, phone cables, electrical lines of all stripes…anything powered by electricity. It even includes graveyards, masonry buildings, roads, and a host of other mechanisms, but it’s the powered element of the Death energy network that we’re focusing on here. You have to get to airborne transmission of non-Ionizing radiation to really poison the ether, and the minds of those inhabiting it.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12.3 per thousand in 1990 to 12 per thousand in 1991. That’s a 2.4% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased 22.4% from 12 per thousand in 1991 to 7.7 per thousand in 2018. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of .83% over those 27 years.
Stuff.co.nz said “The age of Kiwis getting married has been steadily rising since 1991 and could be the secret to a longer-lasting marriage.”
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12 per thousand in 1991 to 11.9 per thousand in 1992. That’s a .84% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand remained steady at 11.9 per thousand from 1992 through 1994.
After increasing almost 10% from 1989 to 1990, divorce rates in New Zealand remained stable or decreased from 1991 to 1994.The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 11.9 per thousand in 1994 to 12.3 per thousand in 1995. That’s a 3.4% increase.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 12.3 per thousand in 1995 to 12.7 per thousand in 1996. That’s a 3.1% increase.
The game is swinging back and forth, between the malefic influence of non-Ionizing radiation and the generally-increasing vibrational rate of the wider environment.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12.7 per thousand in 1996 to 12.3 per thousand in 1997. That’s a 3.1% decrease.
The divorce rate in Australia decreased by 81% from 1997 to 2016. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 4.3% over those 19 years.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 12.3 per thousand in 1997 to 12.6 in 1998. That’s a 2.4% increase.
1998 is the year my friend, Eric and I stood on his back porch in our home town of Emmaus, PA and saw a sunset that led us to conclude that a new age was dawning. 1998 was the year spray planes first appeared over my office in Allentown, PA. 1998 was the year that the literal forest of what is purported merely to be “communications infrastructure” was thrown up suddenly in every city, town and village on Earth.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12.6 per thousand in 1998 to 12.5 per thousand in 1999. That’s a .79% decrease.
The game is swinging back and forth, between the malefic influence of non-Ionizing radiation and the generally-increasing vibrational rate of the wider environment.
The folks in charge tried to use technology to blunt, slow or stop the great positive vibrational change, and that’s the struggle we’re witnessing here.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12.5 per thousand in 1999 to 12.2 per thousand in 2000. That’s a 2.5% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 12.1 per thousand in 2001 to 12.7 per thousand in 2002. That’s a 4.7% increase, larger than the 3.1% increase seen from 1995 to 1996.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 12.7 per thousand in 2002 to 12.8 per thousand in 2003. That’s a .78% increase.
We’ve seen a five-plus percent increase from 2001 to 2003, as the “wireless communications” infrastructure works its woe.The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12.2 per thousand in 2000 to 12.1 per thousand in 2001. That’s a .81% decrease.
The positive change is slowing, as the tower-based Death energy tech comes online.
The divorce rate in the U.K. decreased 34% from 2003 to 2017. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 2.42% over those 14 years.
The divorce rate in England and Wales decreased 26.5% from 2003 to 2013. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 2.65% over those 10 years.
The average annual decrease in the divorce rate in the U.K. of of 2.65% seen from 2003 to 2013 was 8.6% lower than the 2.42% per year from 2003 to 2017. The greatest positive change in the decrease in the divorce rate took place from 2013 to 2017.
The divorce rate in the U.S. has been dropping every year since 2005.
The divorce rate in New Zealand remained steady at 12.8 per thousand from 2004 to 2005.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 12.8 per thousand in 2005 to 11.9 per thousand in 2006. That’s an eye-popping 7.6% decrease, the largest yet seen in the data set.
The rate of 12.8 per thousand in 2005 was basically the sick peak, if you put aside the literally insane 17.1 per thousand divorce rate seen in New Zealand in 1982. 1981 saw 11.1 per thousand. The rate in 1996 was 11.7 per thousand.
2005 was the high water mark (pun intended) of the Death energy-bases storm steering and augmentation system, when Hurricane Katrina was pumped up and steered around like a bumper car, straight into New Orleans.
Don Croft fabricated the first simple, inexpensive Orgonite devices in 2000. I personally started gifting in 2003. By 2005, Orgonite had already broken the back of the malefic system.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 11.9 per thousand in 2006 to 11.3 per thousand in 2007. That’s another mighty 5% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand remained steady at 11.3 per thousand from 2007 to 2008.
The average annual decrease in divorce in the U.K. of 2.42% from 2008 to 2016 was 8% higher than the 2.25% average seen in the United States during that same time period.
Divorce in the United States decreased 18% from 2008 to 2016. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 2.25% over those eight years. Maryland Today told of “The Dark Side of a Dropping Divorce Rate”.
Positioning a dropping divorce rate as a bad thing is a Satanic Inversion, and also an example of what George Orwell called “Doublethink”.
Philip Cohen, a Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland, said that marriage is becoming an increasing component of social inequity, and that “It’s not really a good news story for the whole society.”
(Philip Cohen, Professor of Sociology, University of Maryland)
I’ve included his photo so you could get a better idea of what a generational Satanist in a position of marginal influence looks like.
We get the word “Satan” from their great god Set, whom they’ve worshipped under various names and guises all the way back to Babylon, and before.
Set, also known as Seth and Suetekh, was the Egyptian god of war, chaos and storms, brother of Osiris, Isis, and Horus the Elder, uncle to Horus the Younger, and brother-husband to Nephthys.
The repugnant god Set, the repugnant Jar Jar Binks, and the repugnant god Set)
You can only recognize them by the codified, highly-repetitive way in which they speak, and write.
They’re hiding in plain sight in every city, town and village on Earth, figuring the rubes would never notice.
You know them only-generally as “the One Percent”. They are the distinct and separate race that we know as “Neanderthal”. They’re all genetically related to one another. It’s a bloodline thing. As any middle schooler knows:
August 5, 2012 - 12 Year Old Girl Discovers All US Presidents Are Related to King John of England
They’re related through the maternal bloodline.
Here’s what you’re supposed to think a Neanderthal looks like:
Can you see how they’re smiling? When the cannibalistic, literally-blood-drinking Neanderthal invaded all the nations on Earth Millenia ago one by one, they were not smiling. They actually filed their teeth to points, back in those early days, prior to putting on “civilized” guise.
While this is what a Neanderthal actually looks like:
(King John I of England, the guy all the US Presidents are related to through their maternal bloodlines)
Apr 17, 2001 — Research leader Dr Rosalind Harding said: 'It is certainly possible that red hair comes from the Neanderthals.'
2020 - “ScotlandsDNA believes that everyone who carries one of 3 variants of the red-hair gene is a direct descendant of the first redhead ever to have it”
January 31, 2008 - Blue-eyed humans have a single, common ancestor
It’s how the few have controlled the many, well, all the way back to Babylon, and before.
It’s why the ruling bloodlines of all the nations have the lightest skin.
We’re obviously going to have to recognize and come to terms with this if we’re going to make progress as a species. But they say that the hardest part of a problem is realizing that you have one.
In September 2018, Esquire said “Oh Great, Millennials Are Killing Divorce Rates, Now”.
Esquire’s positioning an exponentially-decreasing divorce rate as a bad thing is a Satanic inversion. It’s also an example of what George Orwell called “doublethink”.
The subhead of the article, which features Cohen’s previously-mentioned article, goes on to say “Wait. This is a good thing”. Can you see how the author “walked it back”, and then hedged the great news of an historically-unprecedented decrease in divorce back to merely a “good” thing?
That author is Esquire Lifestyle Editor Sarah Rense. Here’s her picture:
(Sarah Rense, Lifestyle Editor, Esquire)
I’ve included her photo so you could get a better idea of what a generational Satanist in a position of marginal influence looks like.
She’s written what is known in the Intelligence trade as a “hit piece”. Or she may have been handed the article by her upline and directed to publish it.
The article says “ ‘The characteristics of young married couples today signal a sustained decline [in divorce rates] in the coming years,’ Susan Brown, a sociology professor at Bowling Green State University, told Bloomberg after seeing Cohen’s results.”
Can you see how “characteristics” and “sustained decline” are both general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda.
The average annual rate of the decrease in the divorce rate of 2.25% in the U.S. from 2008 to 2016 was three times that of the .75% decrease seen from 1980 to 2015.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 11.3 per thousand in 2008 to 10.1 per thousand in 2009. That’s an 11.8% decrease. Wow. The decrease in the divorce rate in New Zealand is increasing exponentially, going forward in time.
The divorce rate in New Zealand remained steady at 10.1 per thousand from 2009 to 2010.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 10.1 per thousand in 2010 to 9.7 per thousand in 2011. That’s a 3.9% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increase from 9.7 per thousand in 2011 to 9.9 per thousand in 2012. That’s a dead-cat-bounce 2% increase.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 9.9 per thousand in 2012 to 9.3 per thousand in 2013. That’s a 6% decrease.
2013 is the year I started writing this series of articles, entitled “Positive Changes That Are Occurring”, on Don Croft’s old web forum, “Etheric Warriors”.
The marriage rate in the U.S. increased .9% in 2015, the highest number of marriages since 2009.
The divorce rate among enlisted male U.S. soldiers decreased 18% from 2009 to 2019. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 1.8% over those ten years.
There was a 4.9% increase in divorces in divorces in England and Wales in 2010.
The divorce rate in Australia decreased by 13.6% from 2012 to 2016. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 3.4% per year over those four years.
The divorce rate in the U.S. decreased for three straight years from 2012 to 2015, to the lowest level in history.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased by 8% from 2012 to 2014. That’s an average annual rate of decrease of 4% over those two years.
The average annual decrease in the divorce rate in New Zealand from 2012 to 2014 was 18% higher than that seen in Australia during that same time period because the level of what Wilhelm Reich called “Positive Orgone Radiation” was that much higher in New Zealand than it was in Australia.
That’s because moral and mental health vary directly with that of the subject’s etheric environment.
Divorces in England and Wales decreased 2.9% from 2012 to 2013.
The divorce rate in the U.S. decreased 4.9% in 2015. Time Magazine called the 5% decrease “a small decrease”.
The divorce are in Australia decreased by 5% in 2015. Abs.gov.au described the 5% decrease as “a slight decrease”.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased 5% in 2015. The rate of decrease in the divorce rate in Australia, New Zealand and the United States in 2015 was identical.
Here we see the wider etheric environment coming into balance, where New Zealand had previously been leading the way.
The divorce rate in the U.K. decreased 9.1% in 2015. The rate of decrease in the divorce rate in the U.S. in 2015 was over six times that of the average annual rate seen from 1980 to 2015.
The 9.1% rate of decrease in the divorce rate in the U.K. in 2015 was 276% above, or close to four times that of the average annual rate of decrease of 2.42% seen there from 2003 to 2017. The positive change is increasing in speed and magnitude with the Orgonite-driven return to health of the etheric environment in the U.K. That’s because moral and mental health vary directly with that of the subject’s etheric environment.
The average annual rate of decrease in divorce in Australia of 4.3% from 1997 to 2016 was 258% above the rate of 1.2% seen there from 1980 to 2016.
The decrease in divorce in Australia from 1997 to 2016 was over three times higher than that seen from 1980 to 1997. The great positive change is increasing exponentially, going forward in time because moral and mental health vary directly with that of the subject’s etheric environment.
The divorce rate in Australia decreased from 2.2 per thousand in 2012 to 1.9 per thousand in 2016. That’s a 13.6% decrease. That’s an average annual decrease of 3.4% over each of those four years.
The 3.4% average annual rate of decrease in the divorce rate Australia from 2012 to 2016 was over four times that of the average annual rate of decrease of .75% per year seen from 1980 to 2016.
The average annual rate of decrease in divorce in Australia of 3.4% from 2012 to 2016 was 183% higher than the 1.2% average seen there from 1980 to 2016.
The decrease in divorce in Australia from 2012 to 2016 was close to double that seen from 1980 to 1997. The great positive change is increasing exponentially, going forward in time because moral and mental health vary directly with that of the subject’s etheric environment.
The average annual decrease in the divorce rate of 4% in New Zealand from 2012 to 2016 was 18% higher than the 3.4% seen in Australia during tthat same time period. The rate is close to 20% higher in New Zealand because of the correspondingly higher level of what Wilhelm Reich called “Positive Orgone Radiation” in New Zealand, vs. Australia.
The divorce rate in the U.S. decreased for three straight years from 2012 to 2015, to the lowest level in history.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased by 8% from 2012 to 2014. That 4% average annual rate of decrease in the divorce rate in New Zealand from 2012 to 2014 was 233% higher than that of the average annual rate of 1.2% seen there from 1982 to 2018. The greatest annual decrease, 5%, was seen in New Zealand in 2015.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 9.3 per thousand in 2013 to 9.1 per thousand in 2014. That’s a 2.2% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 9.1 per thousand in 2014 to 9.3 per thousand in 2015. That’s a 2.2% increase.
The 5% decrease in the divorce rate in New Zealand in 2015 was 25% higher than the average annual rate of decrease in divorce of 4% seen there from 2012 to 2014, and 316% higher than the 1.2% average decrease seen in New Zealand from 1982 to 2018.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 9.3 per thousand in 2015 to 8.7 per thousand in 2016. That’s a going-out-of-business 6.5% decrease.
In September 2015, in the face of dropping divorce rates across all age groups, Business Insider said “Fewer millennial marriages are ending in divorce”.
Pinning it just on the Millennials is an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
“FEWER Millennials” is general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decreased from 8.7 per thousand in 2016 to 8.4 per thousand in 2017. That’s a 3.6% decrease.
The divorce rate in New Zealand decrease from 8.4 per thousand in 2017 to 7.7 per thousand in 2018. That’s an 8.8% decrease, the largest in the data set.
The divorce rate in New Zealand increased from 7.7 per thousand in 2018 to 8.6 per thousand in 2019. That’s a huge 10.4% increase, driven by the implementation of 5G.
In February 2019, New Zealand’s Minister of Broadcasting, Communications and Digital Media announced that the 3.5 GHz band will be allocated for national 5G networks.
To level set, I’d note that, despite the large increase from 2018 to 2019, the divorce rate in New Zealand in 2019 was still below where it was in 1980, prior to the onset of that nation’s great technology-driven increase in divorce.
The 5% decrease in the divorce rate in Australia in 2015 was over six times that of the .75% average annual rate seen from 1980 to 2016.
Both Australia and New Zealand saw their highest decreases in divorce in 2015.
The divorce rate in the U.S. decreased 4.9% in 2015, to the lowest level in history. Time Magazine called it “a small decrease”.
Australia, New Zealand and the United States all had their largest decreases in divorce in 2015.
(Review percentages)
The rate of decrease in the divorce rate in the U.S. in 2015 was over six times that of the average annual rate seen from 1980 to 2015.

In November 2016, Time said “Divorce Rate in U.S. Drops to Nearly 40-Year Low”.
Where “drops” is general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
“Drops TO Nearly 40-Year Low” implies it has reached bottom, and won’t go any lower. “NEARLY 40-Year Low” is a hand-from-the-grave hedge back from “drops to 40-year low”.
The article continues: “The U.S. divorce rate dropped for the third year in a row, reaching its lowest point in nearly 40 years, according to data released Thursday. Marriage rates, on the other hand, increased last year.”
Wait, what? Dropping divorce rates and increasing marriage rates compliment one another, while “on the other hand” implies they contradict one another. I’m so confused and ensheepled!
Can you see how the headline carefully omitted “for the third year in a row”, instead, in journalistic parlance, “burying” that impactful statistic in the body text below?
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
Lastly, both “dropped” and “increased” are general hedges, put forward to blunt and defray against any specific insight into the magnitude of the historically unprecedented positive change.

The number of divorces in England and Wales “fell again” in 2017. The word “fell” was used because it’s it’s softer than “dropped” or “decreased”, and also as a thinly-veiled reference to the fallen Lord Lucifer. But the main reason it was used is because it’s general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of statistics that would provide specific insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
