Vault-Co

{{conspiracynav}}
{{hatnote|Sadly, this article has nothing to do with the ''{{wpl|Fallout (series)|Fallout}}'' games.}}
'''Vault-Co'''<ref group=note>The name is deliberately similar to ''Vault-Tec'', the corporation that built the Vaults (advertised as fallout shelters, but actually secret social experiments planned by the U.S. Government) in the ''Fallout'' series of post-apocalyptic computer games. The blog uses the [http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Vault_Boy Vault Boy] in its logo and an iconic picture of the protagonist of the first game in the sidebar.</ref> is a curious blog by Cleve Blakemore that appears to be typical of the most extreme segments of the [[John Birch Society]].

==Main claims==
Blakemore claims, among other things, that "[[God]] produced [[the Flood]] to counter the genetic miscreants produced by the union of [[Nephilim]] and human women",<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20120104180557/http://vault-co.blogspot.com/2008/05/end-cycle.html The End Cycle] Monday, May 19 2008</ref> the [[Polygamy|polygamists]] were innocent,<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20120105030515/http://vault-co.blogspot.com/2008/04/all-charges-in-polygamist-raid.html All Charges In "Polygamist Raid" Demonstrated False!!!] Saturday, April 19, 2008</ref> and a few interesting tidbits on science (Wikilinks by [[RationalWiki|RW]]):<ref>[http://archive.ph/1jbTg More Money-Spinning Gibberish From Supreme Populist Charlatan Hawking] Monday, December 31, 2007</ref>

Blakemore considers both [[creation science]] and [[evolution|evolutionary science]] to be bunk. He seems to think [[intelligent design]] is the most correct: "The real situation has more questions about it all than ever and does not necessarily validate the literal 'Creationist' school (although it certainly points to intelligent design at present)."<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140729104859/http://vault-co.blogspot.com/2007/12/more-money-spinning-gibberish-from.html?showComment=1199419620000#c5004654066980586124 Comment section], January 3, 2008 </ref> He also has an obsession of sorts with [[Homo neanderthalensis|the Neanderthals]], claiming that they had built a true civilization and that knowledge of this is being suppressed for whatever reason,<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130603215012/http://vault-co.blogspot.com/2012/12/modern-science-moves-backwards-not.html Two] [https://web.archive.org/web/20130409072954/http://vault-co.blogspot.com/2012/12/neanderthals-brought-dogs-forward-with.html examples] from December 2012 alone.</ref> and also frequently espouses much in the way of discredited, early 20<sup>th</sup> century [[scientific racism|racist pseudoscience]].

He also believes "that if action is not taken soon [to destroy America], [[Heaven]] is obligated to issue a public apology to [[Sodom and Gomorrah]] and a possible lawsuit for reparations may be in the cards."<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20120105160634/http://vault-co.blogspot.com/2008/09/kwa-hellish-landscape-of-damned.html The 'Kwa: Hellish Landscape of the Damned], September 11, 2008.</ref> <ref group=note>By the way, a version of this quote concerning the music industry appears on the back cover blurb of Tony Parsons' 1982 novel ''Platinum Logic'', and there may well be other versions before then.</ref>

Blakemore believes that the purpose of television is to destroy [[Western world|Western society]], starting with the women. Once the women have been worked on, they will be estranged from the men, who will enter into a deluded life of hopeless despair:<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20120105010019/http://vault-co.blogspot.com/2007/06/television-is-designed-to-kill.html Television Is Designed To Kill Everybody, Women Foremost On The Corpse Heap], June 2, 2007 </ref>

{{quotebox|Their wombs start with the potential to draw down the future and once you take them out of the picture, the wretched males are easily picked off and eliminated one pink slip/heart attack at a time. The males are real tough guys who can go without food, [[water]], [[sleep]] and fight with sticks and stones… but destroy their females and isolate them from each other, the males will wither up and just blow away like dead flowers. Men need women even more than women need men. Without women and children, men have nothing to live for. Don't be fooled by that three-time divorcee chuckling over a [[beer]] about how glad he is that none of them bitches "tied him down," girls… he'll be dead in six months in a car accident because he had insomnia at 3 am in the morning, saw a sharp turn and suddenly without knowing why just decided to hold the wheel steady and go right over the mountain. Men without women and [[children]] to protect and love are nothing, they're not even human any more. That's why television knows, you kill the female, you kill the entire species.}}

It certainly makes one wonder where [[Red Pill]] types got their first pointers.

==Software==
Cleve Blakemore also develops Vault OS,<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20090131121508/http://sourceforge.net/projects/vaultos</ref> "A complete x86 16 bit real mode multitasking, multiuser terminal system for civil defense that provides for management of inventory, personnel, medical records, calendar, scheduling, maintenance and monitoring of a civil defense shelter." It certainly seems to be the market leader in its niche (however small that niche may be), but is unavailable.<ref>[https://sourceforge.net/projects/vaultos/files/?source=navbar This project has no files.] October 6, 2017</ref>
