Speaking of the inauguration, I don’t know what was more peculiar: Lady Gaga sweeping out onto the capitol dais in Hunger Games drag —and I mean but exactly, down to the golden mockingjay pinned above her left breast — or Garth Brooks post-hymn dash to the exit as though he just heard the repo man was coming for his Gulfstream jet parked across the Potomac at Reagan National Airport.

The immense field of ranked American flags deployed silently down the mall in place of annoying US citizens lent a funereal vibe to the proceedings (as in the death of your country), while the thousands of massed national guard troops signaled the paranoia crackling under the surface as Ol’ White Joe Biden stepped forward to commence his party’s punishments against the unWoke (disguised as a call for “unity”). He was surrounded by a virtual wax museum of Deep Staters salivating for the upcoming blood-feast: The Obamas, Hillary and Bill (nodding off), Nancy, Chuck, Mitch… but just who was the Asian chap sitting behind the man-of-the-hour? Secret Service? Or his new minder (courtesy of Uncle Xi)?

As for Mr. Trump, he departed as he had arrived in 2016: stridently contemptuous toward the parasitical oligarchy that finally expelled him like a bladder-stone. The threatened impeachment trial will be a marvel of casuistry — a procedure for removing someone from office who is no longer in office — and also for the transparently flimsy charge of “inciting the insurrection” at the capitol. As if to underscore the absurdity of that, Antifa squads rioted in Portland and Seattle on inauguration night. Their banners expressed less-than-jubilant sentiment for the new regime. The Portland outfit broke windows and spray-painted the city’s Democratic headquarters, faking-out pols who had warned against an uprising of “white supremacists.” Of course, all those arrested would be promptly released without charges — demonstrating just how serious the Wokester officials running those cities really are about criminal anarchy. The grannies swept into the capitol rotunda by Antifa incursionists January 6th won’t be so lucky.

Neither did a much chattered-about military takeover happen during the tension-filled transition hours, though kibitzers on the web insist days later that it remains secretly underway. On his way out, Mr. Trump failed to pardon either Julian Assange or Edward Snowden, a disturbing failure, while he commuted the sentences of a couple of two-bit rap-stars, based on their contributions to advancing human dignity. And whatever Mr. Trump finally rooted out in the way of declassified FBI documents has already disappeared into the DC quicksand.

Much adored as he is for valiantly opposing everything swampish, it might be best now for Mr. Trump to just retire from the political scene and leave the battle to others. He made his point, colorfully and often bravely, considering the astounding bad faith of his adversaries, though he certainly could have articulated the stakes better and with more decorum. He leaves not merely a vacuum but a sucking chest wound of leadership opposing hysterical and tyrannical Wokery. Who will step forward in his absence? Probably someone we haven’t heard from yet. That’s how these things work.

The narrative instructs us that the election is resolved — so shut up about it already. But the election is not resolved. Enterprising gumshoes will be sifting through the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and combing through the thickets of fraud for a long time to come. Crime will be outed, if not prosecuted. Mr. Biden moves under a cloud of illegitimacy. Beyond the lingering election dispute lies all that evidence about the Biden family’s money-grubbing operations in foreign lands, clear down to the money-laundering records. Think that won’t bite eventually?

Nothing else is resolved about the national drift toward the Niagara of woe just downstream of here. Mr. Biden couldn’t have asked for trouble more loudly on Day One than by shutting down deportations of foreign nationals here illegally and signaling an open borders policy. The legions of newly unemployed and financially ruined US small business owners and workers may take a dim view of that. Rent and mortgage moratoria are extended as far ahead as June, as if landlords and mortgage-lenders don’t need to be paid to keep the banking system running. The new president has promised further, and even more severe, Covid-19 lockdowns. The Democratic Party apparently wants to utterly destroy what’s left of the real on-the-ground economy. No incoming US president has gotten off to a more feckless and ill-fated start.

        @pyrrus

        Buyer’s remorse is already setting in amongst the millions of deluded Democrat voters who pulled the lever in the voting booth solely for the purpose of ejecting the Bad Orange Man from the White House.

        Their votes were driven by nothing more sophisticated than a blind, unreasoning, raging hatred fed by 5 years of non-stop “Hate Trump” propaganda being broadcast 24/7 by the fake news media empires.

        I doubt that more than 5% of the Biden vote was cast by citizens who truly believed in their hearts that Uncle Joe was the best candidate for the job.

        For this reason, (and the fact that he actually lost the election, which had to be re-jiggered and stolen over the few days that followed Election Day), Mr. Biden has been installed by the Trump-hating Swamp as our new Usurper-In-Chief………but he has no mandate to govern. Zero.

        McConnell and the Senate GOP will end up in a power sharing arrangement with Schumer’s Dems and axing any effort to end the filibuster rule will be the cost of getting to a newly agreed set of Senate rules that actually allows the Dems to try to move forward, somewhat, as a barely governing “majority.”

        As a result, the GOP Senators will be able to throw lots of sand in the gears of the Democrat governing machine and prevent any legislation from passing that is not sufficiently amended and watered down until it is a concoction they can stand to imbibe.

        The Hard Left will soon be in full revolt and Antifa and BLM will return to burning down the cities and Biden will look feeble as hell for doing nothing to stop it.

        Within 6 to 12 months the Usurper and Vice Prez Schlong Slurper will be the lamest of lame ducks awaiting slaughter in the 2022 mid-term elections. Trump will be making trouble from his Southern White House of Mar-A-Lago, driving the Dems wild with rage because the GGG just-won’t-go-away. (LOL!)

        The GOP will subsequently sweep to control both houses of Congress and by 2023 Biden will be under impeachment……but not with the intent to remove him, but only with the intent to embarrass and humiliate and discredit him and his token multiculti affirmative action sidekick. Oh, and also for the sake of some well-earned payback for Nancy’s dual bogus impeachment’s of Trump.

        So, stock up on the popcorn and sodas. It is going to be an entertaining ride.

        • Ivehadenough January 23, 2021 at 6:42 am #

          C’mon mannnnnn. The “usurper” and “schlong slurper” are now our great leaders. Usurper and sunny boi are gonna finish the china hustle and raise our taxes whilst they fleece both countries. The dipsh*t VP is pole dancing and smoking boo in the white house. Reminds me of when as a young lad I was watching a parade with tears in my eyes. A police officer stopped and asked me what I needed and I replied “Freedom”. Oh wait…has that phrase been used? Oh, how’s about; I actually I graduated from college with 13 degrees and was number 1 in the my class 18 times? Ole willie brown must be heading east for a rendezvous.

      that is secret service agent David Cho. he is korean american. he was also in the secret service under the Trump administration.

      I can see the track of Kunstler’s thoughts have steered away from things like good development patterns and economic policies.

      Is it? As the Trump supporters fade into the evening shadows like a to early mist, it’s all over except the shouting now everyone can go home until the next circus comes to town in another four years, why they already are working on their slogans after all its slogans that count not the monkey behind them.!!!!

    • Perimetr January 23, 2021 at 4:47 am #

      Admit it, Mr. Kunstler, you were one of the “kibitzers on the web” who encouraged the idea that Trump was going to take some major action against the felons who rigged the elections and those who make sure the public never was informed about it. I can’t really fault you for that, since I held the same hope in my heart. But I had expected some form of a mea culpa coming from you, not some rather insincere dismissal of others who continued on with the same talk post-inauguration.

      Trump at best was disruptive to globalist plans, but he truly failed to “drain the swamp” lol. It took him 3 whole weeks to fire General Flynn and then appoint one neocon after another, along with a variety of handmaidens that continued to do the bidding of all those who opposed him.

      All the talk about restoring normal relations with Russia and who did Trump appoint? Bolton. Russiagate was created on orders of Obama and Brennan and instigated through the FBI, all quite seditious acts that went unpunished and unprotected. Anyone remember those “50,000 sealed indictments” that never saw the light of day? Apparently Mr. Barr used them to heat his house this winter.

      Even during the last days as President, Trump went along with pulling the rug out from under Sidney Powell by allowing his advisors to announce that she “was not part of the team”. It wasn’t 4D chess, it was the Keystone Cops, a complete inability to stick with a plan and back the people necessary to carry it out

      It was so inept that it made me wonder if all was actually part of some divide and conquer strategy designed to tear America completely apart at the seams, leaving the “deplorables’ twisting in the wind and the nation on the verge of civil war. Frank Zappa said that politics is the entertainment division of the military-industrial complex . . . maybe that should be expanded to include a number of other deep state factions but you get the idea.

      It does seem that tens of millions of Americans now finally see that the media puts out propaganda rather than news and that anyone opposing the system has little or no representation in Congress, the White House, or the Courts. But is there any sort of leadership capable of channeling this enormous discontent into something other than chaos fueled by a disintegrating economy? If so, how can they effusively operate when free speech is not permitted, when even getting together with your family at Christmas is forbidden ‘for the public safety’ lol.

      America has become a totalitarian security state. Corporate fascism rules the day in a much more efficient manner than even Orwell imagined.

      Have a nice day, do you have any symptoms? Stay safe. LOL

      • Perimetr January 23, 2021 at 4:55 am #

        autocorrect strikes again, I meant to typer “effectively operate”, not “effusively operate”. lol

        Couldn’t have said if better myself if I tried!

        I for one tired months ago of JK’s endless pontificating about how the American Legal System was going to grow a pair and somehow search for justice instead of the bribes and politicking that have always been it’s guiding principles.

        And the idea that a pompous narcissist and self-promoting salesman like the Orange Tweeter was a revolutionary who was going to Drain The Swamp___ silly beyond belief. Did he appoint a single cabinet member or advisor who wasn’t a swamp creature? Well, in retrospect that is understandable because in the DC swamp there are only fetid swamp creatures to choose from.

        The Tweeter’s final act as president is symbolic of his pathetic failure as a leader and a human being. Passing out pardons to a random collection of grifters and criminals while leaving the two true heroes of our generation— Assange and Snowden adrift in the Gulag.

        So now we have a virtual reality image as Figurehead President, the perfect symbol for the Orwellian future that our collapsing Empire deserves.

      • hmuller January 23, 2021 at 10:24 am #

        I’ve shared those thoughts for about 12 years now. People considered me crazy. I think more and more people are awakening and seeing our true situation now that the evil ones are fully in charge.

  2. BackRowHeckler January 22, 2021 at 10:06 am #

    I think the Chinese dude standing behind the President could be Xi Jingping’s personal emissary, keeping watch over Joe, making sure he follows the script and if he doesn’t, report any deviations back to Beijing.

    Then there will be hell to pay.

    • kwyjibo January 22, 2021 at 10:39 am #

      A simple google search will uncover that the Asian gentleman is David Cho, a Korean-American who will head Biden’s Secret Service.

      “Cho also served under former President Donald Trump. While serving on Trump’s detail, Cho worked his way up to second-in-command of the protective detail, according to The Washington Post. He was awarded Department of Homeland Security’s gold medal for exceptional service in 2019 for his work negotiating appropriate security for former President Trump on his visit to North Korea.”

      But spinning the Chinese lie is more fun, I suppose.

            Then good ol’ Freddie disappeared and you showed up the next day, writing and unnecessarily capping, and emoting in the same manner.

            The fact that you pretend to be a new person is nothing less than mental illness.

        Thank you for looking up actual facts kwyjibo.

        Hard to believe Kunstler sank to spotting and pointing out an asian face, didn’t bother to research who that person might be, and went straight for: “could he be a CHINESE AGENT?!!?”

        I guess when the QAnon-type fantasies don’t pan out, something has to take their place.

        I’ve wondered about the sourcing of some of the things he throws out here, and things like this make it seem like much of it is an overheated imagination.

          We’ve just been through four years of relentless anti-Russia propaganda. Now let’s not climb on board an equally baseless anti-China campaign. Since ‘Islamic Terrror’ has lost its galvanizing potential, the oligarchs and archons have decided a great power enemy is better for whipping up paranoia and keeping the herd cowed. If you’re going to run a protection racket that people willingly pay up for, you need a threat the rubes will find credible. The Axis of Belt and Road fits the bill marvellously, as Iran is a founding member and ‘Gasses His Own People’ (but really didnt’) Syria can also be found on the list. Cry Havoc and release the drones.

          • hmuller January 23, 2021 at 10:37 am #

            “baseless anti-China campaign”

            That the Bidens received shitloads of money from China is proven by records in Hunter’s own laptop computer. Too bad all that crack smoking made him forget where he left it. LOL

      I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed but it doesn’t take too much intelligence to figure out that reality will soon expose Biden and his cronies as the incompetent frauds they are.

    Great summary. As mentioned in the last entry, the images of an empty mall surrounded by 25k troops, fencing, and razor wire will never go away.

    We have crossed the rubicon. There are some who still have hope that this fiasco can be turned around, but at this point, I don’t see how. The corruption runs far deeper than even the most politically jaded could have predicted.

        Not until we see the field with clear eyes, have complete situational awareness, and a strategy and game plan. Sadly, President Trump only had the first.

        They murdered a US President and his Attorney General brother in broad daylight, and then managed to silence all the witnesses and everyone involved, while concocting a stupefying false narrative of the events.

        In broad daylight they destroyed three New York skyscrapers containing the paper trail of their criminality and the trillions stolen. And again they managed to silence all the witnesses and everyone involved, while concocting a stupefying false narrative of the events.

        Think of the power it takes to do that: to silence the investigators to silence the prosecutors to silence the judges to silence all the media to silence the witnesses, control all the gov mafia agencies and institutions, and then produce such a stupefying false narrative of the events that it would drive any sane person insane with its wickedness.

        That’s the Vatican/CIA mafia for you. They are EVERYWHERE and they control your FAKE NEWS global reality.

            President Trump served his purpose. He opened many people’s eyes. He created an army. He lit the spark of defiance and informed opposition. This will take many players to right. President Trump was a good start.

            If someone plans to go up against the State/Deep State/ Establishment then he/she/it had better be prepared to get skinned alive too – then killed and slandered. A warriors job no doubt.

          The real problem though are our dimwitted fellow citizens who accept it all and can be manipulated like Pavlov’s dogs.

          Particularly galling to me are the “conspiracy theory debunkers” and boosters of the “scientific method” (who have not the faintest idea about science).

          If there are no conspiracies why is everything secret and FOI requested documents are mostly black?

          Just recently I read about the newly agreed upon trade agreement between the EU and China the provisions of which are highly secret.

          Where there is secrecy, there is a conspiracy.

            Re, “Where there is secrecy, there is a conspiracy.” Sometimes. But there are many, many circumstances where secrecy does not denote a conspiracy in the background. What’s required in situations where a conspiracy is suspected is an investigation; if an investigation returns no evidence of a conspiracy. Remember, a conspiracy is a legal term with an exact definition. So does the word ‘theory’. The two terms probably don’t belong in the same sentence together.
            A ‘conspiracy theory’? Show me your proof!

          I just gotta ask: Do you have an alarm set in your Outlook calendar reminding you to post this same old tired screed twice weekly in the comments section of the CFN Blog?

          I mean, seriously, you post the same tin foil hat drivel every week.

          Do you work in the advertising industry? I’m curious because you appear to be a true believer in the repetition technique, first patented by Herr Goebbels and his merry little band of propagandists.

            Sad Wiz,

            You’ve been emotionally trained to dismiss what they want you to dismiss, and be completely blind to it. They have made the truth so outrageous and fantastic to you, that it’s inconceivable to your propagandized mind, which was schooled in ignorance and deceit, that the truth could actually be so “outrageous and fantastic”.

            There are plenty of history books and other sources that reveal what the Vatican/CIA mafia wants to be concealed. You will not search them out or read them, because you can’t. Not because you can’t read and can’t do a search, but because you’ve been emotionally programmed not to. And that’s how propaganda works.

      Under a little remembered military code put in place during the McCarthy era, when it was feared that a foreign and unfriendly entity would take control of our government from within, the military was given the duty to remove a belligerent government and take over government functions until a new civilian government can be installed with elections under military supervision. This would not be a military coup, though I think that would be preferable to what Biden and the Liberals have planned for us. There is proof that Biden took bribes from the Ukraine and China and is beholden to those nations at the very least. There is ample evidence that the election was stolen by the Democrats. The military has that evidence. For the first time in history, Biden was not provided with government transportation to attend his inauguration. Hardly anyone attended the inauguration. Only about 350,000 even watched it on cable. Many of the national guard turned their backs on him as he left the site of the inauguration in his car. DC looks more like a military camp than our capital. Biden had to accept inauguration for the crime to be complete.

      • Yohannon January 22, 2021 at 1:02 pm #

        He doesn’t trust the National Guard so he hired his own security company. Is transportation part of that? But definitely yes on the second point: many of the Guard turned their backs on him.

        I hope you are right. The best evidence is from two days or so ago: the Pentagon refused to share info with the Biden administration.

        • draupnir January 22, 2021 at 1:46 pm #

        • draupnir January 22, 2021 at 1:59 pm #

          Michael – You don’t think they expect some return on their investment? There is also evidence that China interfered directly in our election. I was married to a man who was career military. I don’t believe for a moment that the military is going to meekly bend over for a Communist takeover. I hear there are Chinese troops in Canada and Mexico and Xi recently put the PLA on a war footing and told them to be ready on a moment’s notice. These are dangerous times and I think there may be blood.

Remember: Canada is an ally of the United States, a member of NATO, and has consistently and unequivocally aligned itself with the United States at least since the Suez Crisis of 1956 and probably before.

They watched and when they went too far, the war started. Anybody think the military would fight for the left?

        Yeah if you are ready to be ruled by the drug cartels. I was talking to a Mexican at a childs birthday party last weekend. His family is here legally and runs a landscaping, construction business. He imports workers from Mexico (around 100 at a time) who after their allotted time here return home. He said a few always disappear instead or returning. He kept stressing the fact that the cartels run everything in Mexico. It is naive to think that they won’t be running the show here if we keep importing Mexican nationals to America. There should be a complete moratorium on all immigration. Mass deportations of all illegals, regardless of where they are from and what their occupation and excuses for coming here. When caucasians are in the minority, America as it was previously will cease to exist.

    Greetings,

    China is playing the long game and don’t think for a moment that it doesn’t have plan for the United States in its Silk Road. We are to become peasant farmers for the Chinese – that is the goal. We will see a return to feudalism and those that stole this election believe that their masters wont dispatch with them when the time comes to divvy up the goods.

    They think “useful idiot” doesn’t apply to themselves.

            My dad started building a new house for us in 1954. The kids in my family all had to pitch in to build it: hauling cement blocks, mixing “mud”, sweeping up sawdust, painting drywall, shingling our low pitched roof, etc. We kids loved the feeling we got sleeping in our new bedrooms that we had, indeed, “made by hand”.

  7. Beryl of Oyl January 22, 2021 at 10:14 am #

    I just hear that Florida Governor DeSantis ordered the Florida National Guard back from DC.

    He said that they are not Nancy Pelosi’s servants.
    It took him long enough, though.

    I think it was the revelation that they were being made to sleep in a parking garage that did it.

    Meanwhile, the Biden family is excused from immediately violating Joe’s mask orders for federal property. It seems “celebrating” is an excuse for killing others with your bare face. Not celebrating is an excuse for gathering over Thanksgiving, but only if you are Doctor Birx.

    Amazing though, how many people still believe there is something to this mask thing, despite time and again seeing with their own eyes that the people pushing it dn’t believe it themselves.

    The labels on the boxes the masks come in weren’t enough, now it would appear that nothing is enough.

    Friends continue to laugh at warnings that we will soon be subject to martial law, but consider this: the immense infrastructure of equipment, personnel, militarization of local police forces, and rules of engagement are all ready in place for imposing “order” by force any time, anywhere in the country on short notice. And the corporate state powers-that-be have made their intention to do so if we step out of line abundantly clear.
    The fact that there is no tank, surrounded by troops with machine guns coming down my street doesn’t mean that they won’t reliably materialize if I am regarded as misbehaving. We are already living under martial law – it’s just discrete, so far.

      • Wizard of the Saddle January 23, 2021 at 11:16 am #

        That’s the difference. Trump merely *threatened* to invoke the Insurrection Act. All bluff and bluster, but no action last summer when he clearly would have been justified in siccing the military on BLM and Antifa.

        Democrats will friggin’ do it and they won’t hesitate or think twice. They are simply waiting for an incident…..a *crisis* that cannot be allowed to go to waste, as old Raum Emmanuel was so famously quoted as saying.

      • tresho January 22, 2021 at 1:19 pm #

        “people living in the 7th Century” generally are not nearly as squeamish about giving up their own lives – or even those of their loved ones – as us moderns are. And they learn very quickly. Controlling countries filled with primitive men who are quick learners generally involves killing nearly all the men – and their loved ones. See what became of native Americans after 1492.

        • michael January 22, 2021 at 2:34 pm #

          Afghanistan is atypical. Alexander The Great took it over on his way to India. He had to leave more than half his cavalry in the place and go into _every_ valley and defeat every single mountain fortress.

          Good read: “Into the Land of Bones”.

          The mountains make a special breed of men.

          • tresho January 25, 2021 at 10:53 am #

            “Afghanistan is atypical.” So is the USA.
            For a more contemporary look at Afghan culture, view the 2001 documentary “Beneath the Veil” by Saira Shah. It is available in its entirety here: https://topdocumentaryfilms.com/dispatches-beneath-the-veil/ Saira completed this just a few months before 9/11, an amazing coincidence, if you believe in such. Her father’s novel “Kara Kush” is a loosely fictional account of the Afghan resistance to the attempted Soviet takeover which started in 1979. People familiar with both of these items would have had no difficulty understanding how the current situation in Afghanistan came to be.

        It isn’t called the Place Where Empires go to Die for nothing. I suspect it’s nearly impossible to take over a place that is organized tribally. They’ve never really been an actual nation in the sense we understand it. We had to genocide the Native Americans to take over. The Australians had to genocide their indigenous population.

      Levine is a man in a dress, who never manages to look good whatever he/she wears.

Who was married with a kid. Personally, I don’t know if you can trust a doctor who’s so insane that he’ll have himself desexed like Richard Levine did, but I’m sure that my opinion offends all the little Wokesters and their media allies so I’d be the one called nuts.

    Gaga can sing, but she is also in The Club. She wasn’t just dressing up for fun, folks. Probably a good ways off yet, but a full shift is clearly planned. Predictive programming is one of the smartest things they do to soften the eventual blow.

    I wondered about the Asian guy too but he’s probably part of Secret Service, no doubt recommended by Eric Sawell.

    I had the TV on CBC for an hour before the Big Event and one of the commentators, a man named John Something, repeatedly stated “Trump leaving the White House was like an exorcism”!!!!

    The new government is a Kleptocracy, comprised of Kleptocrats. They are pretending to be socialists/communists pretending to be Democrats, but in reality they are simply power-hungry thieves. They seek to use their government positions to enrich themselves and their families. Kleptocrats don’t actually care about socialism, communism, Democracy, or other forms of government. They simply care about enriching themselves at the expense of the governed. The Hunger Games perfectly illlustrated a functioning Kleptocracy, no different that nations like Venezuala and North Korea where the government is comprised of wealthy elitists, while the people starve. Pre-Revolutionary France was governed by a Kleptocracy. Unfortunately, people are being confused by the smoke screen, exitedly telling each other the Democrats have gone to far, it’s about Socialism now, while the thieves running the show could not care less about socialism, communism, the environment, or whatever other scam they are selling, they are just busy looting.

      “they are simply power-hungry thieves. They seek to use their government positions to enrich themselves and their families. Kleptocrats don’t actually care” That is a truism, which applies to virtually every human organization / bureaucracy in human history. Bureaucrats who are not power-hungry thieves at hard are few and far between. The Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius still has a pretty good historic reputation, His son and successor Commodus soon gained a reputation for vicious brutality. Oddly the role of the father in raising the son as his heir is hardly mentioned by historians. M. Aurelius would have greatly improved the lot of Roman citizens by simply executing Commodus before he cause all that trouble.

    Suppression of the Deep State should be number one plank on its platform. Our worst enemy is the Deep State.

    Number two should be the primary elimination of every single cowardly RINO in Congress. Yeah, the ones that were probably the first to run into their hidey holes on the 6th.

Support Trump for another four years of hot air, empty promises, and excuses – followed by savage leftist backlash.

        Kind of agree, but that’s not how democratic politics work. The people are simpletons who need the motif of the Returning Hero. Why not do what they did to us? Run Trump and then have him retire in favor of his Vice President?

        He really doesn’t have the ideas, the Vision, or in the end, the balls. He wouldn’t even give condolences for Ashli Babbit. Just tried to save himself in the end. If the Trumps want to really help, fund the new party and set up media that will support it. If it all works, maybe sometime down the line his kids could run for office in it.

For 50+ years we’ve had Democrat papers, tv, and radio news, largely Republican talk radio, and a self-absorbed citizenry that largely cares only for what it can “legitimately” steal from its neighbors via taxation, regulation, and vengeful government.

    Libertarians bailed on the president in large enough numbers, in some states, to swing those states to Biden.
    Not that it really made a difference, Biden would just have gotten the number he needed to win, anyway.
    Their repudiation of Trump and his policies isn’t going to do them any good. however.
    John Brennan i promising that the Biden administration considers them a threat.
    Probably because the ones who aren’t in the party for the drugs actually care about things like civil liberties and freedom.

    “Former CIA Director John Brennan let the cat out of the bag during an MSNBC appearance Wednesday, saying that the Biden administration is laser-focused on rooting out “insurgency movements” in the U.S., cracking down on pernicious malefactors like (gasp!) libertarians. No, really.”

      Libertarians need to shut down their own group and join in as yes, if you look at the critical states, the libertarian count added to Trump’s would have won the election.

      Cleansing the new party of traitors should be a priority.

      Educating the minorities about how the Marxists are screwing them in every way possible has to also take priority.

      Trump will be a mentor to this new party, not its focus. I believe he has had enough of the insane asylum on the Potomac.

    No doubt, a well planned orchestrated “reset of society” will be ascribed to anything these fools do. They have no plan people, not some nefarious plot conceived by soros/Schwab Et Al. They will fumble along creating unintended havoc that they’ll try to blame on the traitor De Jure. Setting up encampments in the multiple parks inside D.C. would take two days max, with hot food, showers, racks for all. Did anyone among bidets moron posse think ahead? One would have to be capable of projecting future needs. Prepare for many such examples of incompetence derived from hubris coupled with contempt, inexperience and outright stupidity. Unless the power#s that be surgically insert a mic in bidets occipital lobe, he’ll do as Barry boy indicated he’s observed many times past – F.U. Everything.
    A new Titanic movie should have Trump as the Captain. Schumer-McConnell as 1st mates plotting mutiny and bidet as the deck ape they pick to fool the rich passengers – piglosi the mafia princess mainly. The ship hits iceberg. Don’t let a great crisis go to waste! Throw the Capt into a lifeboat and launch away. Install capt bidet, just as the “ship USA” takes on massive water (debt) and starts to sink. End of movie.

    “But the election is not resolved. Enterprising gumshoes will be sifting through the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and combing through the thickets of fraud for a long time to come. Crime will be outed, if not prosecuted. Mr. Biden moves under a cloud of illegitimacy. Beyond the lingering election dispute lies all that evidence about the Biden family’s money-grubbing operations in foreign lands, clear down to the money-laundering records. Think that won’t bite eventually?”

    The Mr. Magoo Presidency

    Many of you may remember Mr. Magoo as the character in an old cartoon from the 1960’s starring an elderly, wealthy, short-statured retiree who gets into a series of comical situations as a result of his extreme near-sightedness, compounded by his stubborn refusal to recognize the problems he encounters.

    Joe Biden in his fog of confusion is the incarnation of Magoo. As our new President stumbles into office while inheriting an America in troubled times, Sleepy Joe will bounce from one crisis to another becoming the most inept American President in modern times. President Magoo will drag America down a “Woke Orwellian Rabbit Hole” while blurting out Radical Left talking points from an empty room.

    At the end of this rabbit hole is “The Great Reset” (see the World Economic Forum’s charter). The WEF’s mantra is “Build Back Better”…. If you recall, that’s the campaign slogan that Joe, Head of the Biden Crime Family, used during the latter part of his basement mumblings.

    If you want a taste of where this “Great Reset” will ultimately lead America, just read up on China’s “Social Credit System”. A comprehensive government surveillance tracking system China started in 2009 that manages the rewards, or punishments, of citizens on the basis of their economic and personal behavior.

    America’s Marxist/Maoist inspired political and big business leaders are using Climate Change and more recently COVID to herd all non-compliant “Lying Dog-faced Pony Soldiers”, “Bible and Gun Clingers”, and “Deplorables” into a corporatocracy arrangement where governments are in collusion with big business controlling everything in our lives.… while grifters like the Bidens and Clintons continue to stuff their pockets.

    Oh Magoo, you’ve done it again!

  19. JohnAZ January 22, 2021 at 10:55 am #

    Well, Biden has already alienated our neighbor to the North. The head of Alberta wants his head over the Pipeline stupidity. He is going to put pressure on Trudeau.

    The first round of the Climate Change debacle has been fired. Two items may change here.

    Trudeau is under threat in his next election. His primary opposition
    is in the west.

    If the idiot in DC carries through, the oil is going to China through Vancouver.

    All we are witnessing now with these made for publicity executive orders is the oldest whitest bought-and-paid-for criminal career politician throw bones to the constituents that know his very existence is hypocritical and cynical and entirely built upon pure BS.

    Here’s a tranny health officer for the “T”‘s. No matter that it did a horrible job in PA.

    Here’s a moratorium on deportations, and an amnesty plan for those who despise the I&NS, borders, and a check on big industry and big agriculture’s exploitation of cheap and throw away labor.

    Here’s an unenforceable mask mandate for the simpletons who are still believing the COVID hysteria.

    Here’s a “we’re opening up” plan for those that know it is nothing but hysteria (unless you’re really old, really fat, or really sick).

    The only respect I can muster for Antifa who allegedly espouse some beliefs that align with my own: no more imperialistic wars, no more militarization of our police, and now, no more putting lipstick on a an old white establishment dog dropping and insulting our intelligence when trying to pass him off as something fresh and progressive.

        “nursing home wrongful deaths, tens of thousands of them, are going uninvestigated” State and local prosecutors are available and are fully authorized by law to investigate and prosecute such crimes. At least those not part of the SJW-Antifa crime syndicate. My state (OH) publicizes the death toll of COVID-19 in nursing homes and assisted living facilities, but oddly enough, refuses to list them by FACILITY. The last I checked (months ago) New York State refused to list the COVID-19 death toll by age group, unlike many other states. Amazing what can be done with manipulated of statistics, even if they are accurate.

    LOS ANGELES, California — Mayor Eric Garcetti announced Thursday that the City of Los Angeles would require all employees to undergo “implicit bias” training as part of an effort to achieve “racial justice.”

    Garcetti, speaking from Dodger Stadium at a press conference about the city’s coronavirus vaccination effort, said that the city would use “equity” in its distribution of vaccines, to prioritize minority communities hardest hit by the pandemic.

    • Ishabaka January 22, 2021 at 12:09 pm #

        Anyone who’s had the misfortune of engaging the vaunted civil servants of the city of Los Angeles knows that the demographic breakdown is about 60% Hispanic, 30% black and the remainder white/other.

        Apparently implicit bias didn’t stop most municipal entities, based on outward appearances, from turning into a cross between central America and West Africa.

        No real surprise though. Garcetti’s political capabilities seem to be limited almost exclusively to kneeling/virtue signaling over recidivist casualties who were “turning their lives around”.

      For the biblically illiterate among us:

      In Daniel 2 the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar has a troubling dream. Daniel, one of the exiled Jews, asks God for the interpretation which he then shared with the king.

      Nebuchadnezzar dreamed of a large image with a head of gold, chest and arms of silver, belly and thighs of brass, legs of iron, and feet of iron mixed with clay. Daniel told the king, “you are the head of gold.” The kingdoms to follow were Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome, and a fractured Europe. Vs 44: “And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed.”

        George Romney was governor of Michigan, not a senator. Before that, he was an auto executive. He named his idiot son Willard, which Democrat friends correctly pointed out years ago is the name of a rat. And now, the rat wants to try again to fulfill the White Horse Prophecy, wherein an LDS leader saves America in a time of crisis. Great. Vote for Harris, or vote for Romney? Either way, you’re fucked.

        I’m hoping for the Second Coming, too, although that’ll be quite a mess because people will be stupid and try to fight the designer of everything from subatomic particles to the entre universe, and everything in between. You don’t fight someone who can make it as if you never were, but humanity will do it anyway (see: above comment about Bronze Age dotards’ inability to accept urbanization).

    All of what you said is true, but I think this is also an opportunity to change our lifestyle for the better.

    We have much of tech needed to decentralize work, play, and life in general. And what we don’t have we can invent.

    Distance learning is the future – why send your kids to a school modeled on the industrial revolution factory. And in the area of work a lot of jobs can be done virtually. And those that can’t could still be done with multiple smaller shops. Lock downs have shown that we do not need everyone working to provide basics for the population.

    This would let people live in smaller walkable communities at a more human scale using a lot less energy.

    As you have pointed out many times the world we have created and live in is an abomination. It need not be that way.

    I think that we need to flesh this idea out and promote it.

    • Blackbird January 22, 2021 at 11:49 am #

      I suspect you are right that distance learning is the future, but it is a poor replacement for interacting with peers. Students of the future will be programmed with all the “right” answers, but never learn how to discover truth on their own, or how to cooperate with others.

      • MaryV January 22, 2021 at 12:16 pm #

        That is part of what is wrong with factory model schooling, the “peers” thing. Kids need to interact with all ages of people to learn how to do things, and be civilized.

      Old tech

      Have you heard about pod based schools?

      Pods of ten or so kids, being taught three at a time by a central teacher on computer, and coached by aides that work for the prime teacher. Put your pods in school buildings or any other conference room setup.

      Zoom makes this easy.

      Nothing is more important than a small student to teacher ratio for good education.

      Trying to educate 30+ kids with virtual or even hybrid teaching is a joke.

      The small isolated classrooms will help slow the crud also.

    My favorite part of the day (and yes the inauguration was extremely funereal) was when the motorcade drove by the soldiers and most had turned their back on Biden.

    Good times.

    • romanmanner January 22, 2021 at 12:24 pm #

      Th soldiers were protecting the route, hence their outward facing posture. They weren’t trucked in to act as a prop.

      They were brought there because you ‘fearless orange jesus’ whipped you rubes into such a frenzy you started thinking Q was real, corporate corruption was patriotism, and that engaging in insurrection was a good idea.

            It’s simple, hmuller. You guys are a laff-a-minute.

            It’s hilarious to read all about Beijing Biden, about how anyone not in your weird political bubble is a ‘Leftie’, or a commie or a paid shill, or a media agent.

            It’s hilarious to see plain simple facts twisted and concocted into weird memes – today’s classic example being JHK’s smearing of a SS Agent, followed closely in hilarity by the “fact” that National Guardsmen “turned their back” on Biden.

            Yeah, you’re a laff-a-minute.

            The funniest stuff is over now though, more’s the pity. The QAnon-adjacent fever dreams of the likes of Narc Troll & his many minions, awaiting “The Kraken” and “The Storm” and the triumphant installation of Donny Dictator by sheer force of will (with a dangerous overdose of Hopium) will live in my memory for several more minutes.

            Now, you’re all reduced to the misery of contemplating the bleak dystopian future you imagine for yourselves. You’ve created it in your own minds and spend time reinforcing each other’s errant convictions, thus bringing it to reality – for yourselves anyway.

            Actually, we’ve won the country by a wide margin which will only increase. President Trump received over 80 million legal votes, while Biden received less than 60 million legal votes. This fact will become widely known and people will mass organize around this reality. The next move will be to start a campaign to have a Congress free of RINO/Uniparty/CFR gatekeepers.
            There will be a strategy, a game plan, and an end game.

            It amazes me the things people like you accept as the new normal.
            1) Social media purged of non-woke opinions. (You probably applaud that)
            2) Unending house arrest for innocent people over a flu bug.
            3) Jobs lost; businesses bankrupted over a flu bug.
            4) Talk of mandatory vaccinations; at least, for those who want to leave their homes. Whatever happened to women claiming ownership of their own bodies?
            5) Times Square on New Year’s Eve and Washington DC during an inauguration locked down with defacto martial law, ordinary people banned from attending.
            6) Mandatory re-education training to denigrate people based on race. Oh but if they’re white, it’s OK, right?
            7) Mainstream media silence on anything disturbing the approved narrative, i.e. Hunter’s laptop
            8) A weekly changing number of human genders and array of new pronouns.

            I can’t doubt that you are intellectually superior to the rest of us. You’ve said so often enough. But you don’t see any of this as bad?

      • Uncle Abraham January 24, 2021 at 1:53 am #

        So they open the doors of the Capitol to let in the crowd but have thousands of soldiers on hand to protect from zero “frenzied” people. Your math isn’t adding up.

        And by the way, on the 6th of January, hundreds of thousands of people were peacefully assembled without a thought of insurrection.

        Meanwhile, it turns out actionable perfidy was forming inside the Capitol, consummated late in the night.

          At one point Trump was almost talked into a universal mask mandate by Hope Hicks and Jared Kushner.

    Transgenders – a largely unhappy and confused lot, although lately fashionable, are the new saints of the alt-left. No one dare criticize them, everyone wants their child to be one, no expense must be spared in glorifying them. Old White Joe did the obligatory woke thing making them eligible for women’s sports, and sports scholarships, on his first day. I wonder how sportspersons possessing the XX genotype feel about that, whether they are Democrat or Republican?

    • hmuller January 22, 2021 at 12:22 pm #

      These transgender guys should at least be required to get “package removal” surgery. That shows commitment. As it stands, any guy can slip on lady’s running shoes and pink shorts and proclaim himself a competitor in women’s athletics.

        This comes from a case near here; the dudes in question were a couple of teenage black bucks who had previously played HS football, then at some point decided they were females and got on the girls track team. These m#tgef@kjrs didn’t even bother to shave off their mustaches and beards, just tied a pink ribbon in their hair and they were ready to go. Needless to say they won every event at the State HS girls track tournament, and broke every established record.

        The local newspaper, which is nearing bankruptcy, praised these 2 dudes bravery, as did the CIAC, HS sports regulating body in Ct.

      I’m neither party and it sucks, and it’s a horrible blow to women’s rights, safe spaces, sports and general safety.

      I’ve been battling against this scourge for 2 years. Well put, what the trans agenda is about.

      I’ll add: It got so powerful because it’s heavily subsidized by big pharma bucks. Like COVID19, the ‘healthy’ industry is on the take, and they will literally claim 2+2=5 and convince young impressionable minds of it as well, in order to get their hands on some of that filthy lucre.

      Big Pharma wants patients for life: hormones, surgery, etc. make a lotta bank. And they were starting to lose a lot of their medical dependents on a burgeoning homeopathic/naturopathic health industry. Someone had to fill the void.

      One wonders now if the trans will be thrown under the buss for the new Big Pharma enterprise: Endless vaccines etc.

    “Much adored as he is for valiantly opposing everything swampish, it might be best now for Mr. Trump to just retire from the political scene and leave the battle to others.”

    I agree completely. Trump has irrevocably introduced (or maybe, re-introduced) civic nationalist, populist, and pro-localist agendas into the body politic. It won’t be excised easily– even how hard the MSM, and corporatist democrat party tries to.

        That’s a bridge too far. He lost after a rather valiant fight. He got scared at the end at threw us under the bus. Sad and shameful, but understandable.

        They’ve wanted to do this for for generations. They GREATLY desire to do to us what they did to White Christians in Russia. They were going to do this under one pretext or another, as soon as the stars aligned. Now they have and they’re moving ahead.

        I mean are you seriously saying you haven’t noticed the explosion of anti-White animus over the last few years? Always ever increasing? The attacks are now 24/7 and have been for the last two years or so.

        Read up on the stages of genocide. Btw, the tearing down of a people’s monuments used to be one of the stages, but that got x’ed out at some point.

          The anti-White animus is our dividend after four years of Trump. Not that he caused it, he just provided the perfect target for the rage hyped by the left and their “media” attack dogs. Almost as if he had been selected to play that role.

          Trump lacks the strength of character to be the champion of the dispossessed. He lacks the self-awareness to realize he is unfit for leadership. I wouldn’t expect a narcissist to come to my rescue unless the payoff is better for him than me.

    the single biggest donor to Trump and Republicans for the last three elections had been Sheldon Adelson. Adelson made most of his money in China. he died last week, but his widow will carry on. Ukraine is relatively poor, and Americans of republican and democratic extraction have been trying to get in early on developing Russian Industry and Resource extraction.

    Walmart is the biggest company for importing from China. followed by the other retail chain giants and Amazon. until recently, and possibly still, most of Walmart’s political donations went to Republicans. Koch Industries is the single largest exporter to China among U.S. companies. ExxonMobile is number 7. these companies lend Republican.

    China’s next biggest export markets are Hong Kong, japan, south korea, singapore, the netherlands, britain, germany, and australia.

    so all this fiddle-faddle about getting us into a cold war with china is meaningless. a democracy is more vulnerable to this, because you can wind up the dummies and crazies by telling them this means something worse than it does, and that it is someone else’s fault.

            On this, I must wholeheartedly agree with you. I have only one quibble. China, per se, is not the problem. I like the Republic of China on Taiwan ?? just fine and dandy and find Chinese culture fascinating and Chinese cuisine rather tasty.

            It’s the mainland Chinese Communist Party (CCP) that is the problem. Everyone needs to stay focused on that specifically.

            Remember, the uprising for liberty that was crushed in Tiananmen Square in 1989 and in Hong Kong in 2020 demonstrates that, like all other rational human beings, the Chinese people would much rather have liberty and will throw off communism when the opportunity presents itself again.

            The big problem is Xi, (often mocked by the Chinese as Winnie the Pooh), who fancies himself as Mao 2.0 in a business suit. He is the man who has the Hitler complex. All U.S. policy should be oriented towards bringing this man, and the CCP that he leads, down.

      They aren’t hiding it. That’s chutzpah. But of course they know Americans (like you) are so befuddled at this point that they can’t even see what’s in front of their face.

He’s finished,those who expected Qanon to save the day have already been noted in the NSA databanks. We’ve lost the country, time to go lone wolf. Find no more than 2-3 people you trust, and just smile at everyone else. Chose your targets wisely. Pretend to work and worship ,they’ll continue to pretend you have rights.

    • akmofo January 22, 2021 at 1:21 pm #

      Actually, we’ve won the country by a wide margin which will only increase. President Trump received over 80 million legal votes, while Biden received less than 60 million legal votes. This fact will become widely known and people will mass organize around this reality. The next move will be to start a campaign to have a Congress free of RINO/Uniparty/CFR gatekeepers.

      There will be a strategy, a game plan, and an end game.

            They’ve been put over us. Revenge time or so they think.

            The way Israelis attacked Sudanese immigrants was an inspiration indeed. If only we have such a Will to Life and Will to Power. No people on Earth fulfill Sir Arthur Keith’s “Dual Code” so well; the Law of Enmity and Amity; one standard for outsiders and another for your own.

            The Founders or at least the Puritan part had it right: they didn’t worship you guys, they were you guys, seeing themselves as “Israel”. The Algonquin Powwows stayed up all night raising power and sending curses against Plymouth Colony. They admitted it was all for naught. They could do nothing against a People so powerful and well protected.

          • akmofo January 22, 2021 at 6:18 pm #

            I didn’t see any attacks on the Sudanese infiltrators. I did see protests against the Israeli Supreme Court for allowing these economic migrants to stay in the country. For a long time the Sudanese illegals used Israel’s asylum laws claiming they would be persecuted in Sudan. That’s complete nonsense. They already had refuge in Egypt, there was no reason to cross the Sinai desert into Israel other than pure economic reasons. We don’t want illegal foreign labor to break our labor market and our wages. These illegal migrants have to leave. Them being black has nothing to do with it. We already deported many more illegal Russians and Ukrainians than the number of Sudanese being asked to leave.

            I spent the year of 2018 in Israel and saw exactly what you describe, akmofo, with illegal African migrants. And regarding your assessment of Israel’s dual code, Yohannon, I saw and heard the opposite from Israeli’s who coherently explained policies that favor Arab citizens.

          • tresho January 25, 2021 at 11:26 am #

            ” sending curses against Plymouth Colony. They admitted it was all for naught.” Speaking as a genuine Algonquin descendant, I must point out that the original site of the Colony chosen in 1620 had just been depopulated by an epidemic, most likely of some disease brought there by explorers and fisherman who arrived before the Pilgrims did. The Pilgrims found cleared lands and some fertile spots they could plant as soon as the very next spring. After Squanto’s kidnapping and forcible education in the English language, he made it back to his homeland and found the core of his extended family gone from the face of the Earth. All that was left for him to do was to find some strange guys speaking English, and to ask them, in English, for some beer.

        “Actually, we’ve won the country by a wide margin which will only increase. President Trump received over 80 million legal votes, while Biden received less than 60 million legal votes.”

        Do you have a source for these numbers? Is it the same one that said Trump received 75% of the vote?

        All 50 states (more than half of them run by Republicans, including most of the swing states) held elections that they verified as fair, and certified the results, giving Joe Biden his victory.

        The Electoral College and Congress then certified these state-certified results.

        Not one of more than 60 court cases managed to overturn these results, nor did multiple recounts. Acceptance is a critical part of grieving.

        Note: I am quite non-partisan in respect of Trump and Biden … I don’t like either of them, and neither party is even remotely close to being able to address the real problems faced by the country.

        However I am very allergic to conspiracy theories, and assertion of “facts” without any evidence. Million of people might believe the election was fraudulent – but only because they have been fed unsubstantiated claims for months.

        It was an incredible insult to voters – and democracy – for Trump to claim all year that if he lost the election it could only be because the election was rigged. It would have turned many people right off.

            The result: Lawyers repeatedly have been rebuked by judges for their arguments, the Washington Post reports.

            In one of the most-cited examples, U.S. District Judge Paul Diamond of Philadelphia questioned campaign lawyer Jerome Marcus about claims that GOP observers weren’t allowed to watch the ballot count in Philadelphia. CNN had covered the hearing.

            Under questioning, Marcus conceded there were “a nonzero number of people in the room.”

            Tekapo, it would take a book to fully answer your question, since as you point out there were multiple cases.

            Generally, courts denied the plaintiff’s standing to sue, without addressing any substantive issues. Or the court refused to interfere in the election process claiming it had no jurisdiction. (a specious cop-out)

            But the true situation is that THEY control the courts as well as the rest of the US government. Justice and truth don’t stand a chance. We already live in a dictatorial dystopia, and Trump was not strong enough or clever enough to break the beast.

            So let Redneck perform her little dance of mockery.

          • tresho January 25, 2021 at 11:29 am #

            ” why did all the cases fail?” For the same reason the US Supreme Court approved FDR’s taking the US off the Gold Standard, abrogating “gold clauses” in private contracts, seizing private stocks of gold, interning and dispossessing US citizens of Japanese descent during WWII, among many other things. When the “fix” is in, it’s really IN.

        I agree with this too. I’m starting to like your posts better when you leave the tin foil hat shit at home.

        So, one of the most important projects of the next 24 months is to fully investigate, document, resolve, and publish exactly where, when, and how the Democrats stole this election. The fraud must be fully exposed for all to see.

        Equally important: Reliable America First, (no RINO’s please), Republican elected officials in all state legislatures need to address the fraudulent mail voting and the Dominion electronically rigged voting machines problem, among other methodologies of vote rigging. If we don’t restore integrity to the ballot box then the Banana Republic simply goes on and on.

        Doing so will drive the Red Wave election of 2022 that will sweep these vermin out of power in both houses of Congress and render the Crypt Keeper and his Schlong Slurping VP the lamest of all lame ducks in the history of the Republic.

          I agree that there should be a root-and-branch review of federal election procedures, and include Democrat buy-in, with the goal of achieving accuracy, efficiency, and some national uniformity.

          But if you start with the presumption that the Democrats stole the election, then it will be nothing other than a partisan food-fight, and achieve very little, at both the state and federal level.

          • Redneck Liberal January 23, 2021 at 6:21 pm #

            That’s the problem, isn’t it, Tekapo? If this deep & thorough investigation turns up nothing – which is what it would show – the result will not be acceptable to the cohort that has bought so vociferously bought Trump’s lie. There’s no resolution to be found there.

            It’ll take a few years of the Biden administration and the obvious lack of all these dire apocalyptic predictions not coming to pass to even begin to crack these numbskulls’ crazy ideas.

            Indeed … it’s not easy to see a resolution at all. Meanwhile the elites that really control so much just sit back in their mansions, and watch the two proletarian factions slug it out.

            I think it will depend a lot on how much Trump stays in the fray – if he finds golf more interesting, and his financial troubles too distracting, he might fade from the political scene fairy quickly.

            Plus he’s lost his Twitter pulpit.

    Speculation about the deplorables who spoke for Trump versus the woke who spoke for Biden, the question of who may rise from the ashes in 2024 is an interesting one. But, as we all know, whoever that is will be campaigning against Harris while Joe will be in a day room in some high class dementia unit, watching over and over such classics as South Pacific. When they reach the stage they can’t even remember they shit their pants (adult diapers) 5 minutes ago, they can’t follow a real movie, but they stare at music and dancing. The great thing about those dementia units is their DVD library need consist of only 2 or 3 movies since everyday for the patients is groundhog day. Joe may pass to his reward by then, or not. But if he’s still alive that’s where he’ll be.
    In the meantime may Kamala will double down for the trifecta, not just a woman, but a woman of color and ,better yet, a lesbian as well. Hold on to your hats folks, we’re in for some rough roads ahead.

    Racism is as intrinsic to human nature as language and an upright gait.

    It strikes me that the only substantial difference between a racist and an “anti-racist” is honesty. The former forthrightly expresses the residue of human evolution while the latter in thrall of the selfsame evolutionary residue gives Eric Blair a shout-out before favoring his own over others. Same difference in the end…

    All this will little matter if society is indeed heading to where the available evidence points. We will quickly assume our tribal natures and the pathologies of white guilt and white virtue signaling will render those hot-house flowers so afflicted as men (?) without a country. The Kumbaya fantasy, after all, is only marginally tenable in a, historically speaking, anomalous environment of maximum comfort and absence of want.

    Guess Trump didn’t get the memo about how he was supposed to be POTUS right now. Biden and the Clintons just walked right in and took their seats as if Hilliary won, january 20, 2017.

    Trump was just a 4 year hiatus for the Clintons and all the criminal swamp creatures. They routed Trump like he was a gate crasher at their election celebration, the one Hilliary didn’t have, it was her turn, bawl.

    It is the 2016 election, all over again with a different victor and most important a plandemic declared by Trump, giving them all the tyranny and control that they need. Look at all the sheeple.

    Well at least we know that the entire system stinks to high heaven, no reason to back GOP candidates or try and circumvent the blocking of 3rd parties. We are on our own, as we always have been, no one is coming to save us.

    Biden walked past the Marines and said, “Salute the Marines”, but he didn’t. In other words, the voice in his ear told him to salute but already very tired, he just repeated it without doing it.

    Who is the Voice in his Ear? Who is the Grima Wormtongue? Who has he appointed for his cabinet – let that be your clue.

    Thus we live in a “Cryptocracy” or rule by Unknowns. But in the larger sense, we know we’re ruled by some council of the super rich, thus our form of government now is Oligarchical Plutocracy and since they aren’t much on righst for We the People, Plutocratic Totalitarianism.

    Well, Bedpan announced yesterday that his goal is to replace fossil fuels by 2035, and eliminate baseload power plants by 2030.

    As it stands now, windmills provide 7% of electricity used in the US, solar panels 1.7%. Turns out, it will take 1,255,000 windmills to replace current domestic electricity generation. That leaves only 9 years to decommission every power plant in the United States, construct a whole new grid from scratch, and put up over 1 million windmills. All I can say is that Beijing Biden and his True Believers better get cracking.

      • BackRowHeckler January 22, 2021 at 4:39 pm #

        Yeah, and that’s a low number SF, based upon those blades spinning 100% of the time. In reality windmills are operational about 30% of the time; we might need 4 million of those 600 ft monsters to keep the lights on.

        Think of those things coast to coast, never out of sight, in every piece of open land on the continent, looking like alien machines in the film ‘The War of the Worlds’ (both versions, I like the 1st one best)

      When what we should be doing is learning how to securely build a nuclear plant, then build lots of them. In places where they are minimal risk. Just like France.

      If you saw Moore’s Planet of the Humans, you remember a primary problem is obsolescence, the plants wear out faster than they are built. I saw a picture of the solar generators near Barstow, CA. I saw the first one many years ago. There are now three in a picture I saw recently. Two are garbage, too big to be cleaned up properly.

      Nuclear, yes. Wind and solar are a joke.

      ” That leaves only 9 years to decommission every power plant in the United States” Where’s your “can-do” spirit? The fastest way to switch over to “green energy” is to simply shut down all the non-green power sources leaving only the pitiful few windmills and water mills. That can be done in a few months. Don’t even bother to build any new supplies The vast majority of deplorables can go back to living in the dark and cold, and carving their messages on stones and splinters of wood as their ancestors once did. Remember how to make omelets…

        No – he was just a far, far better politician than his opposition. He understood the 2020 pandemic Zeitgeist, and he worked the politics so much better.

        Recognize the seriousness of Covid, mourn its victims, have no rallies, wear a mask, support and exploit mail-in and other forms of absentee voting. A simple recipe.

        That is why he won – Trump was too busy running super-spreader events that many Americans found quite appalling. And rallies that were quite pointless, and just so 2016!

            It’s always hazardous to assert what I believe or know or think. People are so often so wrong, it is embarrassing.

            You might find it really hard to accept – but the fact is that Biden ran a far better campaign for the times. Donald Trump stuck with the same old 2016 mask-less rally shtick … but he was only preaching to the MAGA crowd that makes up less than 45% of the voters.

            He needed to expand his support, and he did his best to drive voters away … sometimes it looked like he was deliberately trying to lose.

            Saying fallen soldiers were suckers and losers? Come on … who was going to be persuaded to vote for him after such statements?

          Nice narrative.

          Too bad it is total and complete bullshit designed to put a fig leaf over the massive election fraud.

          No rational person buys into the fiction that Dementia Joe won because he is more popular than the Beatles were in 1965.

          Give this lie a rest.

          • Tekapo January 23, 2021 at 2:30 pm #

            “No rational person buys into the fiction that Dementia Joe won because he is more popular than the Beatles were in 1965.”

            No-one claimed this, but it is pretty clear that many more people voted against Donald Trump than voted for Donald Trump – he was deeply unpopular – even hated – by a lot of people.

            Millions of people only believe the election was fraudulent because Donald Trump (and the far-right media) claimed it was, day after day.

            But no state official (including many Republican ones), and no state or federal court (including those with Republican appointees, even Trump appointees) agreed there was any fraud.

            “The election was stolen” is the unsubstantiated claim that needs to be put to rest, it seems to me, before any healing and unity occurs.

            I certainly don’t carry a torch for Joe Biden or the Dems … for lots of reasons … but Donald Trump lost an election he could have won because he made many dreadful mistakes in 2020 … and not because anyone stole it.

            That’s my narrative indeed.

            “Millions of people only believe the election was fraudulent because Donald Trump (and the far-right media) claimed it was, day after day.”

            Replace ‘Donald Trump’ with ‘Hillary Clinton’ and ‘far-right media’ with ‘mainstream media’ and you’ve described the election four years prior. Russia, Russia, Russia. Except that was year after year, rather than day after day.

            My favourite quote of the election:
            Clinton: “Trump ‘threatens democracy’ by not accepting results.”

            Breathtaking.

          • Tekapo January 23, 2021 at 4:29 pm #

            “Replace ‘Donald Trump’ with ‘Hillary Clinton’ and ‘far-right media’ with ‘mainstream media’ and you’ve described the election four years prior.”

            i think that’s a poor comparison … we’re talking about claims that the recent election was stolen or rigged – not whether there was foreign interference in 2016 or not.

            Hillary Clinton conceded her election either on election night or the next day … and it was closer than the 2020 election. And even then Trump claimed it was “rigged” and that he really won the popular vote.

            He then falsely claimed his inauguration crowd was the biggest in history. The guy really doesn’t like confronting a loss.

            Anyway – it’s all ancient history now – not a lot of point in raking over it, it seems to me. The future is much more critical.

          • Slugoon January 23, 2021 at 6:39 pm #

            Fair comment and I do hope things calm down a little but I have my doubts with the rhetoric still emanating from the winning side.

            If I was a Trump supporter (I suppose I am in spirit) I would be willing to accept that Biden won, if only through the sheer number of people voting AGAINST Trump, rather than FOR his lacklustre opponent. I could rationalise that.

            What would really smart is the blatant 24/7 hysterical media bias, the total lack of journalistic interest in the laptop or Biden’s Ukraine dealings, the hypocrisy towards protests/riots, the double-standards, and the total dismissal of what were some undeniably egregious electoral practices. I’m not saying they were significant enough to change anything but it’s a very bad look and it has caused deep and probably irreversible mistrust. None of that was Trump’s doing.

            Consequently the Democrats have now invented another phantom to chase – ‘domestic terrorists’ – that now being some 74m citizens. That road does not lead to unity nor a very bright future in my view.

    if he did pardon either one of them he would surely be impeached.

        “The impeachment hearings are proceeding. I don’t know what they hope to accomplish.”

        I suspect that certain members of the Republican Party wish to be rid of Trump and Trumpism too.

        The Democrats are holding the impeachment trial (not hearings) so as to publicly affirm that Trump incited insurrection that nearly destroyed US democracy (their words, not mine).

        Obviously they can only “dismiss” him symbolically since he’s already left, with a vote of 67 (very hard to get, unless Mitch McConnell can whip enough GOP senators to throw Trump under that bus).

        But a more practical outcome – they can vote to bar Trump from ever holding public office again – which many Dems would like to see happen, but many might rather prefer to keep him around for 2-4 years, to maximize the chaos and splintering in the Republican Party.

        There are arguments both ways.

    I won’t link to the execrable long-standing rag this is from, but here’s a pull-quote:

    “I was irate. Donald Trump was unapologetically racist and abusive and reminded me too much of how I grew up. I told everyone in my life, “If you’re a Trump supporter you’re dead to me.” I figured my family supported him but I managed to keep a “don’t ask, don’t tell” type of peace— until my mother just couldn’t contain herself any longer and began posting on Facebook in support of Trump. That was it. I was done with her. I was done with all of them. That was the day I disowned my family, severing that last electronic link to them.

    I didn’t say a word as I blocked her and my entire family on Facebook, not just from my account, but I also blocked them from my husband and children. I blocked them on other social media platforms, email, and their phone numbers. It took just five minutes. I finally felt free.”

    Notice how it’s not enough to disown her entire family, but she also has to prevent them, with her husband and kids, from freely associating as well.

    Free-dumb!

          No – I mean that many other successful countries have a parliamentary system where the top dude is the one who hold the majority in the lower house. The cabinet is picked from parliamentary reps as well – so they are accountable.

          If there is a president at all (or hereditary monarch), they usually have limited powers – greeting people at airports, handing out honors, cutting ribbons on new buildings, etc.

          I believe the US has erred by conferring so much power on the office of one person. But hard to unscramble that egg!

      • KesaAnna January 22, 2021 at 7:03 pm #

        To ( try and ) clarify ;

        I;m quite skeptical of this vaccine business .

        Not so much the vaccine itself , rather the motives and the means in the sub-context.

        That is , that sub – context that says that if I say , ” Fuck your vaccine , I don’t want any. ”

        That means I’m an ignorant , stupid , irrational uncharitable , bigoted Nazi bitch.

        The sub – context which is brute force transparently masked as love and concern.

        And by , ” cooking the books ”

        I mean the assertion that 400,000 dead equals the Black Death , and so I’m a bitch if I derisively dismiss it.

        When , — and this isn’t exactly complicated math here —

        400,000 in a population of 350 million and covering four times zones doesn’t even add up to one in a hundred .

        It doesn’t EVEN COME CLOSE TO one in a hundred.

        Which is to say that with hype of that gross a degree , you are a fucking fool — OR UP TO NO GOOD — if your default reaction isn’t a skeptical questioning of it.

        “86

        Could be a reaction to the vaccine? A side effect? Maybe, it is a little more dangerous to those over 85, just like the virus itself? Two weeks?”

        It could be literally anything. It could be just being 86.

        As I mentioned, well over 4 million people have been vaccinated in the UK. The specific groups so far vaccinated are the over 80s (not finished yet), care-home workers and residents, and health workers.

        So, most. in all likelihood, of the people vaccinated (I can’t speak for other countries) are over 80. And yet this much-maligned vaccine has yet to kill any of them, disappointing many.

        But here’s the thing. Even if only a fraction of the world’s population choose to be vaccinated (and I am entirely disinclined to see it being anything other than voluntary – directly or indirectly) that means billions of people will be vaccinated.

        That being the size of the exercise, what would defy belief, in a rational person without an agenda on either side, would be that a considerable number of people (especially in their 80s) would not die within two weeks of receiving the vaccination.

        People die without appointment. They die when having sex, having dinner, and, in my late brother’s case, while sitting on a bed with their wife and daughter, preparing to take the dog out.

        One of the bizarre facts I gleaned unintentionally from one of Joe Bageant’s excellent essays is (without recalling the actual figure) how many Americans die while on the toilet. Yeah, really.

        Here’s something you’ll probably find very easily all over the web: that 6 people died during the 44,000-person vaccination trial Here’s something you will find less readily: 4 of them hadn’t been given the vaccine at all, but the placebo.

      My Grandfather had a big ol’ spittoon next to his easy chair up till the day he died in ’80. He also would crack raw eggs into his beer and shoot’em down. Up until the mid-ninties there was a fella who would show up at the firehouse with his shinebox every parade day and pick up 30-40 bucks tax free.

        The writer Charles Bukowski was fascinated with a Dutchman who was working as a Longshoreman in his 70’s. Every morning he would come into the bar and put two eggs into his beer. At lunch, much the same. An incredible machine of a man. Bukowski wrote decades later, The Dutchman is my master, then and now.

        Yeah can remember as a little kid going into the town bar with my grandfather, he’d order a shot of cognac and a draft beer, and then salt the beer. I think he picked up the cognac habit in France in WW2. On the bar in jars were pigs feet and pickled eggs, probably not the healthiest fare for an 8 year old but I thought it was pretty good eating at the time.

      Xi Jingping will assure the Climate Czar — John Kerry — “sure, we’re closing our coal fired power plants next week, every one of them, so don’t worry. Yes, millions of our people will freeze to death in our brutal winters, be thrown out of work, and starve, but that’s the price us Chinese are willing to pay to reduce global temps 2°F over the next 50 years.”

      After that the Climate Czar — John Kerry — will stick his head back up his ass, climb back into his Boeing 777, and fly back to the Vineyard, congratulating himself for a job well done.

    ” But who cleaned the spittoons? That’s very low. We need them to be their own separate caste. ”

    My favorite Hitler quote is ;

    ” It should be a greater honor to be a STREET SWEEPER and citizen of this Reich , than to be a king in a foreign state. ”

    A close second was where he said to the assembled Reichs Arbeits Dienst ( Reichs Labor Service ) at the 1934 Party Rally ;

    ” In future , no one will be allowed to join our ranks , unless they have first served in your ranks. ”

    ( i.e. no one will be allowed to become a leader in our Reich unless they have first been a ditch – digger and a toilet – scrubber . )

    Of course a genuine skeptic would be likely to say that Hitler could write and talk pretty , and that doesn’t necessarily mean shit.

    Just like a genuine skeptic should — but they never do — point out that Abraham Lincoln could talk and write pretty , and that didn’t mean shit.

    Which is why nothing anything a Leftist says depresses me more than when a presumed patriot complains that Donald Trump doesn’t talk or write very well.

    Superficial fucking bullshit , and you wonder why things won’t get better ?

    Should I laugh my ass off , or sob ?

    I despise Black Lives Matter , because they say they want justice , but they don’t say a god damned thing about the twice as many Whites who get shot down by the police.

    It’s not justice. It’s fishing for privilege and / or power.

    I despise feminists . Their story always is that progress is girls get to be fighter pilots and police !

    — i.e . Progress is that , and you can bet your bottom dollar on this , girls who were already privileged to begin with , will get to be Alpha predators and hired hatchet men.

    It’s not equality , it’s fishing for power and / or privilege , and nine times out of ten , power and privilege for those who already had plenty of both anyway to begin with !

    And you ?

    A separate caste indeed.

    A great many white people will be going to Stalingrad with me , and / but you won’t be there.

      Yes, some things transcend caste. And some thing don’t. He knew, believe me, he knew. He did not believe in human equality, even among Germans. But what he did believe in was the Vedic idea of the Nation being a complete whole, one body if you will. The street sweepers or sudras are the feet. What would the higher parts be without the feet? Nowhere. Thus the low are raised up into a very real kind of equality, something they could never have as immigrants of course – and something immigrants would destroy for them.

    Meanwhile, somehow the Politically Correct Cultists via Social Media became brainwashed into thinking that Trump was literally “Hitler”, or a “Russian Asset”.

    Why do women find big, long, nasty facial scars sexually abhorrent rather than reflecting true grit and character? Courage under fire….

    Similarly, eye patches, arm hooks, and wooden peg legs?

    Why doesn’t female repulsion for male physical defects also carry over to female abhorrence to male character defects? For example, many women found Ted Bundy sexually attractive and “Hot” even after Ted was convicted as a notorious brutal violent serial killer. Ted was literally a “Rock Star”.

    What gives?

    • Yohannon January 22, 2021 at 9:42 pm #

      Yes, one female poster tried to get me kicked off here because I reported something I’d read: that women sometimes orgasm during rape. It’s not like they signed up for it or won’t bear the scars of it. But their lower nature is their lower nature and does its own thing. That may tie into being attracted by a Ted Bundy I think. Of course their higher part also fantasizes about being the one who makes him into a better person – but hopefully not too much better, not like the metrosexual office worker “male” drones in other words.

      “Why do women find big, long, nasty facial scars sexually abhorrent rather than reflecting true grit and character? Courage under fire….

      Simon Weston, Welsh Guardsman, used to look like this:

      https://www.thesun.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/1472940.main_image.jpg?strip=all

      Then he was sent off to the Falklands, got severely burned, and ended up like this (after many surgeries):

      https://www.caerphilly.gov.uk/chronicle/images/6.digging-deeper/famous-faces/simon-weston.jpg

      But he nevertheless managed to find himself a very nice-looking wife. Just as the little girl in the famous Vietnam photo, fleeing naked with the skin on her back permanently destroyed by napalm, found herself a husband, and had a family.

      One probably shouldn’t generalise.

      • Soul Forensics January 23, 2021 at 3:05 pm #

        “One probably shouldn’t generalise.” –GreenAlba

        Generalizations are usually based on a long history of statistical facts. In many ways, society couldn’t operate without them.

        Cops get lambasted in our race-baiting contemporary culture because they target Blacks more than Whites (supposedly — that’s now changing big time because of the fear of lawfare), but it’s a wise generalization because Blacks commit, per capita, far more crime than do Whites. There are many other avenues where generalizations streamline needed action, and are more-or-less accurate.

        As far as looks not being a factor in acquiring a mate, I’m not sure what world you live in. Men prioritize looks (face, body, sexual openness, and a pleasant personality); women prioritize confidence and social status, so the Falklands casualty you highlight in the exception that proves the rule can be partly explained by the fact he became famous to some extent. Women love famous men. Even infamous men, as the flood of letters to serial killers in jail can attest to.

        • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 5:43 pm #

          My husband must be very grateful to be married to one of the exceptions, given he arrived in my house with nothing but the shirt on his back and holes in his shoes. In his 50s.

          But perhaps you should be addressing Pucker, for being surprised by his own generalisation?

          Personally, if I were young again, I’d avoid handsome, famous or rich men like the plague, for what should be obvious reasons.

          But they wouldn’t notice me anyway, so that would suit everyone. 🙂

          • Soul Forensics January 23, 2021 at 5:53 pm #

            Rich and confident men needn’t be handsome to score the women they want, GA. There’re some mighty homely — nay, downright vulgar-looking — men with trophy wives, or, to be more charitable to other women, those who are all about social acceptance and security.

          • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 6:14 pm #

            I agree. I’d just avoid any of the kind of men who think in terms of ‘scoring’ and ‘trophies’. My life – my choice. I am not unique. I presume.

That means that a few million dollars is the limit to what any one man can own.”

      When folks become independently wealth then the greed is not for money,

            You keep laughing at yourself, Night Owl. However, I looked at a video titled “Shocking Video Of Joe Biden Groping Children Emerges” but it was just a montage of out of context clips and completely unconvincing – the kind of thing someone who is determined to make Biden seem like a pervert would put together. I can’t tell if Biden has done anything like you’re claiming.

            However, you’re stuck with Biden for four years, so you’d better get to the acceptance stage, otherwise I’m not sure you’ll last the distance. And just to be clear: I don’t support Biden. All I’ve said is that, so far, he’s sounded actually presidential and I couldn’t say that about any speech Trump made.

            You didn’t look at anything. The clip that we have all seen shows Biden grabbing a child’s breast area multiple times as she pulls away, pulling children to his crotch, sniffing their hair as they pull away, and more.

            All from one photo session. Easily Googleable.

            Joe Biden gropes children on film, Mike. And you called him presidential.

            Well, Night Owl, if you are focused on not believing anything I say, then why reply? Of course I’ve seen those clips (part of the video I mentioned, also) and they are manufactured to make it look far worse than it probably is. Look, it’s not like Biden was alone with a child in any of those clips; there are always plenty of others close by, sometimes very close by.

            As I say, unconvincing to anyone other than those determined to try to make Biden look even worse than Trump. It’s sad that some people are just intent on yearning for a lost dream and want everyone else to suffer than loss also.

    Hmm , beats me.

    Or , better maybe , I think =

    Don’t believe anything men say about men.

    Don’t believe anything women say about men.

    Don’t believe anything men say about women.

    Don’t believe anything women say about women.

    George Orwell’s 1984 was about politics , and in it you see that not one word spoken on the matter out of 500 words is true.

    It’s the same deal in sex.

    You MIGHT hear ONE true word in 500 words.

    Hey , I could be full of shit too ?

    Because at least one – third of it appears to be SELF – deception ?

    Anyway , one of my favorite observations is that on account of some cultural and social mythology , at least one – third of the male population claims to have a sex drive it does not have.

    And on account of some cultural and social mythology , at least one – third of the female population claims not to have a sex drive that it does have.

    Men will play predator even though that not uncommonly ends up with an innocent neck deep in shit.

    And women will play the victim when it not uncommonly results in their being boxed into a corner .

    As for Rape ?

    It seems to me that men and women both often conspire to paint the rape victim as a head cheerleader or prom queen , even when she wasn’t.

    And when it is unavoidably true that it was an ugly retard ,

    that status is really worse than the rape.

    Like , in , ” To Kill a Mockingbird ” , it comes out that Tom Robinson didn’t rape the white girl.

    Uh oh , he’s still majorly fucked though , because he DID FEEL SORRY FOR HER — his presumed social superior.

    And not condescendingly or patronizingly , but sincerely.

    Yep , he’s really fucked now !

    As Oscar Wilde famously said , ” No good deed goes unpunished ! ”

    It seems to me a whole lot of something is going on here , but which has scarce , or nothing , to do with flesh and bone and bodily fluids.

    ( Btw , I think , ” To Kill a Mockingbird ” is , now , an excellent object lesson in the absurdity and falsity of these claims of progress.

    Tom Robinson was a self – supporting , half – crippled field hand .

    When was the last time you actually saw that ?

    May Ella would have two or three kids , by different adolescent fathers , and consequently would be taking in two or three times as much income as Tom Robinson.

    Tom Robinson would still get in deep shit , even though he didn’t fuck her ,

    because he was a 30 year old man who did care about her ,

    and not a 16 year old boy who did not care about her.

    Bo Radley never would have gotten a chance to do anything good.

    Everyone would just have assumed he wanted to cornhole the kids , and so on that basis alone a pretext cooked up to ship him off to one of these places we don’t call prisons.

    There’s other little details , like a professional police officer hands an ordinary civilian a rifle to shoot a rabid dog , because never the less he knows the civilian has younger and better eyes and is a crack shot.

    No particular stigma attaches to an old woman who is in the habit of sitting on her front porch with an old Confederate pistol in her lap , except that the neighborhood kids assume shes a real bitch.

    Nobody ever seems to question the authority or judgement of Bo Radley’s parents to exclusive say over the welfare of their peculiar son. Today at least three different government agencies would be on that family like flies on shit.

    If people were anywhere near as thoughtful as advertised , this once liberal movie would be banned as politically incorrect heresy , or just plain obscenity. )

    The story couldn’t be written now , except perhaps as a very dark comedy. )

      KesaAnna I must say your knowledge of American and European Lit is impressive, this week quoting Harper Lee and Oscar Wilde, last week I think it was Solzhenitsyn and H.G. Wells.

      Autodidactic knowledge accrued at the School of Hard Knocks, not at a Masters Seminar of Comparative Lit at Duke.

      I like the iconoclastic posters on this site — Akmofo, Yohannon, St. Elmo and Kesa Anna to name a few — not that I agree with everything they say, which makes it even more interesting, and challenging.

    Urban Rural Civil War

    They should do to Washington DC what the Russians did to Grozny during the Second Chechen War? The Russians thickly seeded the perimeter of the city with land mines so that they couldn’t break out. I wish I could find that video of the Chechen fighters trying to break out late at night by running through the mine fields with the intermittent staccato sound of explosions. Do that to the DC lobbyists making a late night breakout from Archibald’s strip club on K Street.

    Yo: Let’s pretend that Kesa is the Wise Devil here. A true Wise Blood

    ??One young devil asks the older one: “How did you manage to bring so many souls to hell?”

    The old devil answered: “I instilled fear in them!”

    Then Answers the youngster: “Great job! And what were they afraid of? Wars? Hunger?”

    No Answers the older one: “They were afraid of the disease!”

    For this said the youngster: “Does this mean they didn’t get sick? Are they not dead? Was there no rescue for them?”

    The old devil answered: “but no . . . they got sick, and died, and yet the rescue was there.”

    The young devil, surprised, answered: “Then I don’t understand???”

    The old devil answered: “You know they believed (and still do) that the only thing they have to keep at any cost is their lives. They stopped hugging, greeting each other. They’ve moved away from each other. They gave up all social contacts and everything that was human! Later they ran out of money, lost their jobs, but that was their choice because they were afraid for their lives, that’s why they quit their jobs without even having bread. They believed blindly everything they heard and read in the papers. They gave up their freedoms, they didn’t leave their own homes literally to go anywhere. They stopped visiting family and friends. The world turned into such a concentration camp without forcing them into captivity. They accepted everything!!! Just to live at least one more miserable day . . . And so whilst living, they died every day!!! And that’s how it was very easy for me to take their miserable souls to hell….. ??

      • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 6:03 am #

        CS Lewis, 1942, ‘quit their jobs’; ‘didn’t leave their homes literally to go anywhere’.

        Yes, having read the Screwtape letters and a whole lot of CS Lewis’ other Christian apologetics, I’d really have fallen for this. Truly CS Lewis’ writing style. Very England 1942.

        Not.

        People forget, just for a start, that there was a time when writers knew where to put adverbs, and were more discriminating about the adverbs they used, but also more relaxed about them. And, incidentally (not related to this instance), didn’t write tortuous, inelegant, and often illogical sentences to avoid something that put the fear of God in them, the ‘split infinitive’, an invented sin based on a misunderstanding issued from Latin grammar, not English.

        You’ve been had. Again. Think of all the times you’ve been had and you don’t even know it.

            Well some of them did, EF.

            But not for the specific purpose I mentioned, which is a recent development. I’ve seen some crackers from people who should know better. And it’s distracting when you’re reading.

            I think it’s because language, in people’s minds, is so indicative of class. People think a split infinitive is a thing an uneducated person would write, so they write horrible, contrived sentences, often with the adverb beside the wrong verb, in order to avoid it.

            Same with the ‘me’ and ‘I’ thing. ‘Me and John went fishing’ smacks of the peasantry. So people who are a little bit educated, at least in their own mind, come out with things like ‘John invited my wife and I to dinner’ to avoid sounding ‘common’. Language, in those two instances, is a great equaliser. 🙂

          Btw, the writer is correct. Or doesn’t that even matter to you, lost as you are in pedantry? And that is ultimately more important. So meditate on his or her words.

          Of course being factually correct is important too, so a good catch and thank you.

            And the population being so half-educated that they couldn’t see it a mile away (and I’m not exactly and Oxbridge graduate). Also, since it took me three seconds to put a sample of that crap into Google – and would take anyone else the same – I have to assume that they choose to be lied to.

    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    Remember me to one who lives there,
    For she was once a true love of mine.
    Tell her to make me a cambric shirt,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    Without any seam or needlework,
    Then she shall be a true love of mine.
    Tell her to wash it in yonder well,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    Where never sprung water or rain ever fell,
    And she shall be a true lover of mine.
    Tell her to dry it on yonder thorn,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    Which never bore blossom since Adam was born,
    Then she shall be a true lover of mine.

    Female part:

    Now he has asked me questions three,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    I hope he’ll answer as many for me,
    Before he shall be a true lover of mine.
    Tell him to buy me an acre of land,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    Between the salt water and the sea sand,
    Then he shall be a true lover of mine.
    Tell him to plough it with a ram’s horn,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    And sow it all over with one peppercorn,
    And he shall be a true lover of mine.
    Tell him to sheer’t with a sickle of leather,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
    And bind it up with a peacock’s feather,
    And he shall be a true lover of mine.
    Tell him to thrash it on yonder wall,
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme,
    And never let one corn of it fall,
    Then he shall be a true lover of mine.
    When he has done and finished his work.
    Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme:
    Oh, tell him to come and he’ll have his shirt,
    And he shall be a true lover of mine.

  69. Slugoon January 23, 2021 at 6:10 am #

    So, do I have this right? (I’m a Brexiteer ergo not very clever.)

    Biden signs EO enforcing pointless masks on federal property… then doesn’t wear a mask while on federal property, multiple times. Staffer says they have “bigger things to worry about.”

    WHO suddenly warns of the false positives resulting from flawed PCR testing while CNN’s Covid death/cases tracker disappears overnight.

    Biden on Covid after having all the answers last year: “There’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months.” That should cover both bases then.

    Kamala on Antifa: “They’re not gonna stop, and everyone beware, because they’re not gonna stop… They’re not gonna stop before Election Day in November, and they’re not gonna stop after Election Day… Everyone should take note of that, on both levels, that they’re not going to let up — and they should not. And we should not.”

    Antifa smashes up more buildings and burns American flags, Biden and MSM silent while a handful of Capitol intruders renders half of Americans domestic terrorists that need to be deprogrammed, censored and purged using the powers of the alphabet agencies and special commissions (not applicable of course to the left-wing extremists that were proven to be inside).

    AOC: “The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable.”
    AOC: “I don’t feel safe near GOP members.”

    Another sham impeachment to waste everybody’s time and money while Hunter’s laptop remains in the memory hole.

    National Guard sent to sleep in a parking lot once finished with (only those who were vetted of course but Biden isn’t paranoid). Hundreds now testing positive for Covid (because the masks they were all wearing work).

    70,000 jobs lost with Keystone XL but plenty of work for the migrant caravans on their way whose rich culture will benefit all Americans.

    I know there’s so much I’ve missed, but the hypocrisy, double-standard, incompetence and sheer perma-hysteria of this pathetic new rabble is going to make for a very entertaining four-years! Good luck to all you MAGAs.

        Yes, I thought we had our problems here but things seems rather tame in comparison. Every time I think the cognitive dissonance has peaked I am proven spectacularly wrong.

          Hello Slugoon. Nice to speak to you again!

          There are lots of things we agree on, you’d find. And the tragi-comic situation in the US is one of them. But I have tried not to say too much about the situation generally over the last few years, with it not being my country!

          I honestly don’t think that even in the tragi-comic UK, people would have been allowed to get away with burning and looting as some kind of retributive self-expression, for any length of time. Not that we haven’t had looting and mayhem in the past – was the last iteration 2011?. But while people did make excuses, the PTB didn’t just stand by and let it happen (although it was touch and go whether they’d be able to deal with it if it got any further out of hand).

    Same reason I haven’t posted for quite some time, nothing valuable to contribute in my case, just content with reading, and enjoying, the blog and the comments.

    We certainly wouldn’t get away with it here. I had the police descend on my house last summer because eight of my neighbours were milling outside the front of my property for a charity MacMillan Cake Bake. I think the limit at that time was six or something.

    Yes, it probably was around 2011 that we had a very brief outbreak of thuggery! I was locked in a Birmingham pizza restaurant but I’m still not sure, had I stepped outside, whether ordinary folk were a target. I don’t even remember what it was about now. Ah, nostalgia. I’m a fairly unemotional person but it gets me every time!

    • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 8:13 am #

      Well, I have to admit to getting on a train from Edinburgh to Norwich in May to go to my brother’s and nephew’s funeral, which was strictly not allowed. There was practically no-one on the train, which was a relief, although I was very conscious that I was only able to do it safely because most other people hadn’t. So my conscious isn’t clear, but I couldn’t think not to go.

      We also were in Keswick when the first lockdown hit, but stayed out our week and then had to drive home. We had a lovely week driving around the Lakes with hardly a car in sight, a delight you don’t normally get there! We were well behaved, though, and only got out the car to walk around some standing stones, and to get my husband a steak-bake from Greggs (before they closed for the duration!).

      Fortunately we didn’t see a single police officer either in the Lakes or all the way home, until we spotted a cop car on a roundabout with us near Galashiels, but they totally ignored us.

        • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 11:15 am #

          Thank you, Slugoon. And yes, sadly, within the space of about 10 days. Nephew diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes practically as a child and, like many teenagers, couldn’t reconcile himself to the constraints, so mismanaged it through his teens and 20s – life and soul of any party, etc. His mother found him dead in bed two weeks after his 30th birthday. My wee bro died of a heart attack less than two weeks later, almost certainly not unrelated to both the almost two decades of angst and its final outcome. Such is life, Covid or no Covid.

          People on here are more familiar with the younger brother, ‘gay nephew’, who has never been any trouble at all, but was blessed with good health. Except that one or two people on here have insisted on his profound mental illness. 🙂

          And no, ratting on neighbours is not a good development. But I was still in the wrong and benefited from other people not following my example. 🙂

          • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 1:10 pm #

            Your use of ‘Covid Lie’ is entirely without discrimination or specifics and is unworthy of someone of your intelligence.

            And my learning is extremely modest – in either French or English.

            But I know that when a hospital has 12 out of 15 floors full of Covid patients, as described by one of the consultants working in it, that hundreds of people working in that same hospital (every last one of them) would have to be in on some sort of scam for your theory to work. Doctors talk to each other on blogs, just the way you do (you should hear their opinion of the ‘Covid is a hoax’ brigade).

            So it wouldn’t take many of the people in that hospital to correct the consultant’s statement if it were untrue. It would get out.

            BTW, I promised you transparency on my husband’s vaccination, which he had on Wednesday. Sorry not to be able to offer you the balm of even a sore arm, let alone his serious allergy issue making any difference whatsoever. But don’t give up – maybe next time.

            You told me about the ladies and their spasms already, but with no references provided to back up your story. I treated it with the respect it therefore deserved (a joke about ‘I’ll have what she’s having’, a cultural reference which I assume didn’t go past you).

            I would not have voted for your ‘bedpan’ chappie. Nor would I ever vote for anything Beijing-flavoured. But I’m glad not to be involved in the fray.

            Well, I’ve never made it from scratch – it’s one of those things you need to leave to a Scottish butcher. My favourite brand is MacSween’s – you can even get it online, I think, so maybe it’s available at a deli near you. Now that they’ve stopped selling it in a sheep’s stomach, which is the traditional presentation, I slice it and freeze it (on the odd occasion that I buy it) and can heat a bit up in the microwave in a minute or two whenever I like.

          The few good ones will in NO WISE make up for the rest. And as Jefferson said, casual mixing will lead to mixture. This was his nightmare. And we will be far less intelligent after this. To put it better, we won’t be we anymore. We won’t be at all.

          Organic or real Nations and Civilizations have a biological base. One tampers with that at one’s perils. I mean Plato and other warned of new forms of music? Changing the actual genetics? C’mon get real.

      One thing that struck me when watching footage of DT’s rallies was how happy, positive and united his supporters always were. A stark contrast to the four years of bile, vitriol and negativity that has flowed since 2016 when the outgoing administration was unable to comprehend or accept that they lost.

      You’d think now Joe and Kamala were installed the ‘ghosts of freedom’ of this world would be happy but having been whipped into such an apoplectic frenzy by the media these past years I suspect they don’t know how to act any other way. How depressing for them and every American that has to suffer them.

      However, the worst of the gloating is over. You can now sit back and criticise everything, satirise everything and watch while big tech and the media desperately try to spin and cover up all of their inevitable failures and broken promises. I know it doesn’t help repair your country but I’m not sure what will.

      Meanwhile, DT is out relaxing on the links.I truly think it’s a blessing in disguise.

      • SoftStarLight January 23, 2021 at 2:01 pm #

        Actually Joe and Kamala like when people are suffering. They enjoy having the power to destroy lives on a mass scale. In a predatory system founded on mass genocide the people who rise to the top are true psychopaths.

Oh, and Antifa was rioting because of Trump. No so, cause they don’t like Biden either. Hope the Democratic HQs like the new air conditioning they got. All those broken windows looked expensive to me.
        I hope DT has a great time. He has earned it.

Oh, and also for the sake of some well-earned payback for Nancy’s dual bogus impeachment’s of Trump.”

I am so tired of “obeying the law” or “respecting the process”. Red states need to resist any oppressive EO’s or Laws coming from this Administration. If a Federal court rules against a state law, then tell them “Screw you and your ruling”. Oh hell, who am I kidding? All the brave Americans have died out.

    Nurse Claire on it here: and you HAVE to love her byline – “Take your red pill or you’ll get it by suppository.”

    Here’s the sick truth, folks. Because everyone went full-submission face-down “peckers in the dirt” in ARSH 2020, despite being armed to the teeth, the die is cast. You’re done, son. They measured the man, and … well. You know what you’ve done. Your own conscience, deep down, convicts. Put your mask on, dhimmi. And shut that mouth…

    So what this means is that literally nothing – no level of hypocrisy, no level of blatant mendacity, there is no lie that is too big to tell, by the highest levels of power. Nothing.

    Holy Mother Church teaches that ERROR HAS NO RIGHTS. But now, with the supine capitulation of the apostate West, MOST ESPECIALLY the so-called “conservative right”, ERROR is now preferred, elevated, and FEARED. All human life is ordered in purely SERVILE fear of error and lies.

    Old and busted: The beginning of wisdom is fear of the Lord.

    New hawtness: The beginning of “earthly survival” is fear of liars and their father in hell. And of getting a ticket. And not being able to crawl into an aluminum tube and fly at 0.8 Mach over the oceans at will. Because muh REASONS….

    So, yeah. Now the PCR tests will be ratcheted down, and eventually memory-holed. And the next iteration is already launched: NEW STRAIN!! And later this year: SUPER-FLU!!! And it will never, ever end. Because everyone enthusiastically cuckolded to the regime, OR to an OBVIOUS, OBVIOUS psy-op, that kept saying, “Do nothing. It’s a movie. REAL MEN have got this. Daddy will take care of you. TRUST THE PLAN.”

    I don’t know what is sadder: the fact that so many fell for it, or the fact that they don’t see the dripping faggotry in total submission to nothing more than an ANONYMOUS promise to “take care of you”.

    Q was a CIA operation modelled on pick-up lines for Twinks in gay bars. At best. At worst, it was this guy: Yoho: picture of fat gamer at his console.

    Me thinks Q stood for QUEER. And the joke’s on you, macho man, “Voice of the People”. With your super-high IQ and proudly claimed ability to bed many morally degenerate women. Keep bragging, player. I’ll pray for you. And Jared Kushner will continue to laugh at you. But it’s okay. Just wait 48. And remember: it’s a movie.

      “And the next iteration is already launched: NEW STRAIN!! And later this year: SUPER-FLU!!! And it will never, ever end.”

      Well, we’ll see. My husband, who couldn’t possibly know as much as the all-knowing Ann – and doesn’t think anyone knows that much anyway – reckons there will be a few more mutations and then it will fade, or at least become very manageable, like the flu. I hope so. A mutation that starts to attack young people is something we wouldn’t want to see.

      But mostly we won’t be able to document everything about it for maybe 20 years. Life is like that.

      Ann’s got a lot of time on her hands. I’d invite her to help out at the London Hospital that has 12 floors out of 15 filled with Covid patients. Or any similar hospital. They’re short of staff. Three or four critical-care patients to a nurse instead of the standard one. And only an actual critical-care nurse if you’re lucky – it’s all hands on deck just now, even if you’d never been near a ventilator before.

      And I wouldn’t insult her with the offer of PPE.

      If push comes to shove, she can sort out the lucky bed occupiers from the die-in-the-ambulance folks. You want somebody wise to do that.

        • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 5:24 pm #

          “The flu is not nor ever has been very manageable it kill hundreds of thousands of people EVERY year.”

          Nah, if you use Newcount, as people on here have suggested for Covid, and remove everyone over 65, under 5, and with co-morbidities, you can get it down to three. 🙂

          Seriously, though, it’s manageable. But that’s mostly because it’s much less infectious than Covid.

          I got to 65 without a flu vaccination and only got flu once, when I was 30. I don’t think that would have happened if Covid had existed, at the same level as now, for 65 years, and there wasn’t the slightest effort at mitigation. Not until it was tamed a bit, if that’s the way it’s going to go (fingers crossed). And I’ve never heard of anyone with ‘long flu’.

          • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 5:51 pm #

            It’s also manageable because we have vaccines, even if the vaccine doesn’t operate at 100% efficacy. You’ve told me how many people it kills, with a vaccine available … now tell me how many it would have killed without a vaccine to keep the lid on.

          • tresho January 25, 2021 at 12:14 pm #

            “I got to 65 without a flu vaccination and only got flu once, when I was 30” Ah, anecdotes, the spice of life. A couple of my own: I was about 46 when I got a case of Influenza type A, which at that time responded to oral Symmetrel. That worked so well I was virtually free of symptoms in 2 days. Worked so well I went to the gym and lifted a few weights while the virus was still in my muscles. Worked so well the muscles I exercised became swollen, stiff and hard, with my CPK and SGOT levels in the 1000s and my urine dipstick positive for blood with no blood cells to be seen. I talked this over with my local nephrologist who advised me to drink extra water and recheck my blood tests in a day or so. I did that and the tests returned to normal quickly. Muscles didn’t recover fully for weeks. A short while after that I had a 19 year old patient in my ER who could barely walk in due to severe back pain. He had the flu a few days earlier, took nothing for it, went to his gym and did an extremely exhaustive weight routine while severely symptomatic with the flu. His case of rhabdomyolysis was much worse than mine had been, and he had kidney failure. Once I’d tested him, I sent him to the same nephrologist I had called earlier. He was put on several days of dialysis. Fortunately his kidneys recovered and he was more or less back to normal in a month. Your mileage, as always, may vary.

        An appeal to authority. The Narcissist comes in hot.

          Nice appeal to authority there. One step up. ‘My wife’s surgeon’. Very good. But too full of yourself to pay attention.

          What I said was that my husband thinks nobody knows all that much – including him.

          If you ever get to that level of humility, let us know. I won’t hold my breath. Likewise when you acquire any medical qualification.

          What I recall you also saying was that you didn’t know anyone who’d had it. You seem unaware that people living in cities or towns, with parents, four children, grandma, granddad and maybe an auntie too, all in the same house, are much more likely to get it – or die of it – than some 40-sometihng wealthy yuppie living in a house with three people in it, away from cities, in a country with a much more resilient health service.

            Not that the ‘debate’ was presented to you in the first place, but you seem to have neglected to answer any of the points, so perhaps you don’t actually try at all.

            Your narcissism has you jumping around in ‘gotcha’ mode, though. Poor narc. Hope those support fishies get there soon or you’ll be an emotional wreck.

            Let me know when you’ve got those Newcount flu death stats. It’s been a while, and for someone of your intelligence there’s just no excuse.

    The Splendor of Truth

    One hour after Biden takes office, WHO reverses guidance on PCR tests… might not diagnose corona at all
    Posted onJANUARY 23, 2021

    “Where test results do not correspond with the clinical presentation, a new specimen should be taken and retested using the same or different NAT technology…Most PCR assays are indicated as an aid for diagnosis, therefore, health care providers must consider any result in combination with timing of sampling, specimen type, assay specifics, clinical observations, patient history, confirmed status of any contacts, and epidemiological information.”

    So much for the asymptomatic “cases.”

      “Most PCR assays are indicated as an aid for diagnosis, therefore, health care providers must consider any result in combination with timing of sampling, specimen type, assay specifics, clinical observations, patient history, confirmed status of any contacts, and epidemiological information.” That was true as soon as the COVID PCR assays went into use.

    Y, SSL, GA

    I have watched the dialogue amongst all the Covid folks, the hoax folks, the vaccine and anti vaccine groups.

    IMHO, everybody is partially right and conversely wrong.

    Y, SSL. Trying to convince folks that it is a hoax is a wasted mission. Do what you want regarding the crud, but with the stats presented over a year, it has earned my respect to do whatever is needed to avoid getting it. Too many deaths, too many hospitals, too many cripples after it is done, and NOT just old folks. I mask maybe 30 minutes a week, I feel so put out. My rights are not invaded, I wear it to protect me and others. Regardless of the anti mask BS produced, masks block going and coming the larger droplets that produce the worst cases of the crud. IMHO, avoiding those is worth 30 minutes of mask time.

    The side effects of the vaccine are insignificant. Any med has side effects, just watch the TV commercials. Again, a trivial risk to protect me and others. Social responsibility, but my choice and yours. Writing up the trivial items you are reporting makes little difference. You come up with something that causes 5% plus, it might be worthwhile. After all, you folks are the one that say that the 1-2% mortality rate is insignificant of the crud itself. So vaccine effects of .01% do not impress me at all.

    However.

    The political BS that has occurred with Fauci as the causative factor has been absurd. He has messed with Trump and now he is messing with Biden. What an ego! Think about it, he has produced nothing in the last year. We knew as much last March as we know now. Nothing has been done to prove to everyone that beating this crud is simple and inobtrusive. Fauci definitely helped to dismount Trump. We are now on a plateau that is the peak of surge three. Ten times worse rates than surge one. We do not know why? I watch folks out and about, they are wearing masks and avoiding close encounters. This surge seems to be resistant to all the mitigation techniques. Masks do block droplets yet here we are. Distancing does decrease transference but again, here we are. Mitigation is not working.

    Why?

    Science is not working! The crud is beating all attempts to block it. IMHO, it is because of airborne transmission, lousy HVAC and indoor concentration, maybe the weather, maybe??

    As a consequence, Covid is going to be like the flu. Control by injection. Or measles, or polio. We do not even understand yet how often we may need to be injected. Trump got us the vaccine in miraculous time, now this damn government cannot even get it out to the folks. Herd immunity is the only control, what that will take is still not understood. Just like every other bug.

    My statement is that science should be concentrating on killing the damn viruses, not vaccines. Otherwise, twenty years from now we may be getting vaccines for countless new bugs, one every four years or so.

    Contrary to the Dems, science is failing us.

        So you agree Fauci is a quack? A political quack!

        You know, since HIV hit in the late 80s, there has not been a successful attack on a virus since. Has “science” reached its limit?

        Vaccines are not fixes as the flu shot attests to.

        • GreenAlba January 23, 2021 at 6:38 pm #

          It may or may not have reached its limit, JohnAZ, but I suspect virology and immunology are subject to the same law of diminishing returns as everything else. Hence a peak in discoveries, then disappointment and a need to manage expectations.

          • Slugoon January 24, 2021 at 6:20 am #

            I reckon this is exactly where we are, flailing around unable to accept that we are but mammals a planet subject to hard physical reality. There is a (hubristic?) mental state that nobody is allowed to die, ever, and when that proves impossible we have to (a) blame somebody, and (b) ‘do something’.

            We’re about a year into this now, lockdowns, masks, police persecution, government oppression and nothing has changed, so all people and government are doing is everyone falling back on either (a) or (b) above. Anything but accept it.

            I saw someone somewhere write the following:
            “Infect everyone, mourn and bury the dead.”

            While I don’t think we need to deliberately encourage the spread (it’s doing a good enough job on its own) I think this is pretty much the bottom line. I’ve had one healthy work colleague commit suicide at Christmas and several other friends whose businesses and therefore livelihoods are hanging by a thread. But now we’re looking at more of the same lockdown mentality until probably May.

            Never mind. My uncle who’s been sitting in a nursing home for the last five years, dribbling down his chin, unable to recognise his wife and children, will be kept out of harm’s way. All worth it.

          • GreenAlba January 24, 2021 at 7:19 am #

            I absolutely agree with you about the nursing home thing. There’s no discrimination when people talk about ‘old people’.

            My husband finds it quite offensive, for example, that a 95-year-old with advanced dementia should get a vaccination before a 66-year-old working doctor (him, for example!) who’s looking after patients and happens to carry personal risks in the case of infection. But you can’t say things like that, even though it’s common sense (AND decency, I’d say).

            But people are hypocrites (I don’t mean you). They also complained that people in nursing homes weren’t being taken to hospital, but being left to die in the homes, because they were old and ‘didn’t count’. You can’t do right for doing wrong.

            But I think people in care homes are only about a third of those dying? I still don’t think people in their 80s dying can be remotely called a tragedy, but I’d be miffed to lose out on the 20 years I could still have if I lasted as long as my mother did!

            However, I never wanted or asked for anyone to lose their job for me to have it.

            Currently I’m feeling less safe as my husband is now partially vaccinated and I’m not, even though I’m a couple of years older. He’s still in contact with patients so could bump me off. 🙂

          • Slugoon January 24, 2021 at 9:41 am #

            I can’t argue with any of that and I think it highlights that our attitudes towards it are shaped by the extent to which we are affected by it.

            We have a population approaching some 70 million in the UK of which around half are of working age. Take out the public sector (since I doubt any of their jobs are at risk) and everybody ‘working from home’ (which I consider to be a euphemism for sitting behind a keyboard producing nothing of any value) and you’re only left with a minority that cannot function properly (at the moment, in the short term, because sooner or later it will all catch up).

            I’m in that minority but nobody else in my orbit is, so I’m suffering in silence to a degree while I watch the same old lockdown and mask enforcement strategies being repeated again and again to no avail while my industry and others burns to the ground.

            Early data from the miracle vaccine (95% efficacy said Pfizer) suggests closer to 50% in real life. That would be realistic since that’s the efficacy of the regular flu injection (47.2% last year according to the ONS) with which big pharma has much experience. (I guess 50% doesn’t sound as good as 95% when you’re in a race with the competition to capture a multi-billion pound, ongoing vaccination contract, though.)

            So where from here? Since the current strategy appears to be based on nothing more than moving goalposts and hope, and the miracle vaccine looks like it won’t be a miracle after all, there are two directions in which we could go, the extremes of which are:

            Strategy A: “let ‘er rip” or as I quoted earlier, infect everyone, bury and mourn the dead. Take no mitigation measures and just carry on as we were pre-Covid.

            Strategy B: lock everybody in their house, permanently, no exceptions. Within a few weeks, everybody will be dead of starvation but for practical purposes the virus will be eradicated.

            Obviously Strategy B is a case of the cure being worse than the disease but where do you draw the line between the two? The current situation is unsustainable but nobody seems prepared to move away from Strategy B towards Strategy A, which is what I think should happen.

            Sorry for the long post but I don’t get to express this sort of thing often as it’s against the narrative.

            I’m not quite sure what you think you’ve just read. Maybe go over my post again?

            I am as anti-lockdown and anti-mask as they come. I’m not anti-vax and whoever wants it, good for them, but it’ll be a cold day in hell before I get it. I’m not a Covid-denier but I do think the response has largely been one of self-fuelled hysteria out of all proportion to the actual threat (to the vast majority of people). The media is an utter disgrace and so is out government that I believe has manipulated and lied to us using erroneous data and assumptions.

            Does that clarify my position?

            The two extremes were not ‘ideas’. They were to illustrate two end points of a continuum where protection from the virus is proportional to the misery and economic damage that lockdowns are inflicting, and where between the two should the line be drawn. I’d be happy to hear your opinions but if you think the whole thing is a total hoax then there’s not much more I can say.

          • Yohannon January 24, 2021 at 4:09 pm #

            I almost feel I have to apologise for Janos’ aggressiveness, since he didn’t do a very good job of it himself!

            For the rest, I totally sympathise with your own situation (airline pilot, I think?). But be assured that not everyone working from home is twiddling their thumbs. I know quite a few, one of whom is doing exactly what she was doing before, at home, but for the same 80% of her pay that her furloughed colleagues are getting.

            However, your situation is particularly bad because the whole industry is threatened. I don’t envy you. And I don’t want you out of work for my benefit.

            Assuming my memory is correct about your profession, it’s more complicated because there’s an international component to your problem. Lots of countries don’t want Brits travelling to them because of the more infectious variant. My own view is that (within the UK) once everyone over, say, 60, has had the opportunity to be vaccinated, things should change, and quickly.

            Nobody should be forced to take it, and if a person is willing to get on a plane or train unvaccinated then they can be considered to be willing to take the risk, which neither the airline company nor the other passengers then need to concern themselves with.

            But until the situation is similar in other countries too, that remains a problem. I suppose it will start slowly with ‘bridges’ as before.

            As regards the efficacy of the vaccine, isn’t the story that it’s about 50% effective after just the first one, and getting up to 90% with the second? Obviously that could drop in the real world, but I’d be more than happy with 65-70%. The way the flu vaccination works is that even if vaccinated people catch it, they tend to become less ill. I’d be happy with that.

            If we have to let it rip, though, I’d ask for some consideration in the form of giving everyone a pill they can take to remove themselves quickly if suffocating to death at home becomes too distressing. People wouldn’t watch their dog die like that.

          • Slugoon January 25, 2021 at 2:48 am #

            Your neurons are still firing on all cylinders, GA! Yes, obviously I’m biased because of my profession and because I’m not in an at-risk group (though my parents are and they’d sooner succumb to the virus than live under these conditions – it’s obviously where I get my convictions from) and as usual you probably have the more balanced and considered view. I was a little crass about people working from home but there are many people who can’t do their jobs from behind a keyboard. They are suffering and none of it is being taken into consideration.

            Aviation’s issue is certainly the international nature of it, possibly some spite thrown in following Brexit (no, I don’t regret my choice!) and a serious confidence issue from ever-changing rules and the fact that half the population are cowering and frightened to death, which I lay firmly at the media’s and government’s door. I have seen some utterly stupefying behaviour from people over the last ten months.

            I can deal with aviation collapsing though, I’ll find a way through. What I can’t face is living in this current climate of fear and hysteria and masks. I hate it.

            I interpreted the comments of the Israeli authorities that 50% could be about the final figure, which would align with similar vaccines (not going to debate mRNA vs conventional here) but I could be wrong.

            I don’t advocate a “let it rip” strategy as there are obviously many things that can be done with minimal effort. I’m suggesting that the resources be focused on those ‘at risk’ groups that were identified all the way back in April last year, that we quit frightening a population with flawed PCR test statistics, that we allow the working age population who have little to fear to have their freedoms back.

            People are free to get a vaccine if they choose, free to wear two masks and a visor while driving their car alone if they choose, but to keep doing what we’re doing, locking everyone down, throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks, encouraging this Stasi-like mentality of mask-snitches and treating people as though they have leprosy, is insane.

            End-note for Yohannon: Stylistically it was obvious but it’s nice to have it confirmed. I liked ‘Janos’ better. Why the change?

            I can understand all of that. Not arguing about the efficacy either – I’ll take anything over nothing in my personal situation. Although I’m clearly not over-affected (I was working freelance at home until just before Covid struck, although that’s nothing to do with why I called it a day), I’d like my life back too. But I haven’t stayed in anyway, in any kind of leper-colony-type scenario (dogs are useful!) and I’ve got a lot more relaxed about using the bus, although I’m happy to stick a mask on for the duration. It just feels more relaxed here – people don’t seem tempted to go to 300-person raves (last night, somewhere in England), therefore you don’t see as much heavy-handedness from the police. Apart from Nicola putting them on the road at Carter’s Bar to keep the variant-infected English out!!

            However, where my daughter lives, about half an hour’s walk away, she gets fed up when she sees (smaller!) gangs of young people milling around each other with no effort at mitigation, because she blames them for her son being stuck at home again. She’s at the end of her tether trying to manage his schooling (and behaviour) and doing stuff for her own work as well (she’s a nursery nurse).

            Changing the subject slightly, one of the things I find unacceptable is the assumption that the dynamic of old people’s resources compared to younger people’s resources is OK. It’s not. If all this effort is primarily to help older people, then there should be a shift of resources. Some old people are really poor, and can’t be expected to offer anything, but some are embarrassingly well off, and many have inherited money to boot. I’m in the middle, so I’d be happy to donate the entirety of my state pension for last year to helping support those who have lost their jobs or their small businesses. Not doing it if it’s only me, of course, as I’m not going to throw my money down a black hole, unaccompanied, for no purpose.

            But it annoys me generally how pensioners are mollycoddled in this country, when only the ones who have nothing but their state pension merit the mollycoddling. I’m thinking of the triple lock, which I find outrageous. But it gets the grey vote, and mostly for the Tories.

            A 21 May 2020 news article in Ohio: “COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – Nursing home residents continue to make up the vast majority of coronavirus-related deaths in Ohio, according to new Department of Health statistics.

            At least 1,246 residents of Ohio’s long-term care facilities have died as of Wednesday from the virus, or about 70% of the total COVID-19 deaths statewide, the data show.”

            Of course, once the fraction of super high risk nursing home residents die off, the overall percentage in this subgroup will plunge.

            “What I can’t face is living in this current climate of fear and hysteria and masks. I hate it.” Fear, hysteria and hate are optional and serve no useful purpose, as far as I can tell. Masks, however, may serve a useful purpose. The one and only time I had a patient on the verge of death from meningococcal septicemia I made sure everyone working on that patient wore masks, goggles, gloves and gowns, including the lab tech, the EMTs and the lady who mopped the floor after he was transferred to St. Elsewhere’s. The patient got what he needed in the nick of time. He had been back at his usual job about 2 weeks when his blood culture reported the offending bug and I could confirm my off-the-cuff diagnosis.

        My point is that there really is nothing that can be done except let is run its course, which includes vaccines. This last year, the advice that Fauci and Birx put out in March is all that can be done until the vaccine was available.

        The GD Democrats used the Trump-did-not-do-enough during the entire campaign. As stupid as the American people are today, they bought the BS. Never let a good crisis pass.

        There was nothing he could do except expedite the vaccine. What he did WAS a miracle.

        Now the Dems have to face their own incompetence to get the vaccine out. Working with this government, good luck, Uncle Joe.

      And the testing is completely fraudulent, right? Completely politicized as per my articles posted above. The creator of Test begged them not to use it for this.

      I don’t know if there are any real tests for Covid except the usual corona symptoms.

      • tresho January 25, 2021 at 1:02 pm #

        “I don’t know if there are any real tests for Covid” The ultimate “real test” is an autopsy visualizing the characteristic virus particles in involved tissues along with fluorescent antibodies proving the chemical structures of said particles. That is rarely done. After the virus has cleared the tissues, there may only be the type of tissue damage visible on autopsy, as described in articles over the last year. The “real test” of infectivity would be to put human volunteers in an airtight room with a known proportion of airborne virus particles for a known amount of time, before and after said volunteers are quarantined from any other possible source of COVID-19 infections. I doubt that will ever be done, not ethical. COVID infidels will certainly quibble with my summary, so have at it, you all!

        • Redneck Liberal January 24, 2021 at 9:34 am #

          Someone more eloquent than me puts it this way:

          ‘Democracy depends on a nonpartisan group of functionaries who are loyal not to a single strongman but to the state itself. Loyalty to the country, rather than to a single leader, means those bureaucrats follow the law and have an interest in protecting the government. It is the weight of that loyalty that managed to stop Trump from becoming a dictator—he was thwarted by what he called the “Deep State,” people who were loyal not to him but to America and our laws. That loyalty was bipartisan. For all that Trump railed that anyone who stood up to him was a Democrat, in fact many—Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, for example—are Republicans.

          Authoritarian figures expect loyalty to themselves alone, rather than to a nonpartisan government. To get that loyalty, they turn to underlings who are loyal because they are not qualified or talented enough to rise to power in a nonpartisan system. They are loyal to their boss because they could not make it in a true meritocracy, and at some level they know that (even if they insist they are disliked for their politics).

          Trump tried to purge the government of career officials, complaining they were not loyal enough to him. So he installed people like acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf, who had been a lobbyist before his meteoric elevation to a Cabinet-level position and whose appointment a court ruled illegal. Wolf was never confirmed in his position by the Senate. He was dependent on the goodwill of the president and, deeply loyal, was a key player in the deployment of law enforcement personnel against the Black Lives Matter protesters last summer.’

          • JohnAZ January 24, 2021 at 10:32 am #

            Sorry you are wrong.

            Before the Constitution, there were the Articles of Confederation. There was no President. There also was a lousy government that did not work. The Constitutional Convention was done because of the lousy job the Articles did running the country.

            Their problem was inherent to the workings of legislatures. Design by committee sucks. The FF couldn’t make up their minds about anything. Nothing happened, JUST LIKE RIGHT NOW!

            So, in spite of the fear of a monarchical government, the Presidency was born. His purpose was to set a direction for the government, to be a leader. The best presidents since have been great leaders, not legislators. Biden has two strikes against him, being a Senator for forty years. Legislators are lousy leaders, always trying to satisfy everyone. Biden is going to be a pussy President. Just the opposite of what we need now.

            The FF put controls on the President because of the fear of authoritarian government. Trump followed the rules, to a fault. It compromised his presidency. He was unable to “make a deal” with the Deep State and being too conciliatory, he accomplished little. I believe he gave up in his fourth year, after impeachment number one. He stayed within close bounds, working things he was in control of, the vaccine startup, and just did not do much outside of that. I believe that he really believed the election process was compromised and tried to expose it. As during the rest of his time, he was outnumbered hundreds to one and did not have a chance. The Deep State controls all levels of government now as even power GOPers abandoned Trump.

            The name says it. Populists defend us. Trump wanted to cut down the power of government over us. People like you befuddle me, why would you ever want the government to have more control over you. Believe me, the Dems in there are going to walk all over you.

            If you like floundering government, the next four years should make you happy. Biden and his nose ring will make up the weak presidency that will be characterized by many special interest groups to pull him in too many directions. Net direction zero.

            You are a conundrum, you complain constantly about Trump’s authoritarianism, which he wasn’t to a fault. But then you vote for more government control. Like most Leftists, you do not know what you want, or how to get it.

    There seems to be a tremendous amount of confusion regarding the Trump presidency. Perhaps I can be of assistance.

    Trump was a crafted president – much like G.W. Bush who was inserted by the neocons to promote war and enrich the defense industry. However, Trump was meant to be just a Useful Idiot – a pliable boor who would do the bidding of some very powerful players without too much fuss. They almost changed their minds after Access Hollywood – even they were appalled at this man’s crass disregard for anything resembling class or breeding.

    Still, they placed him in there in 2016 and as we saw, Trump turned out to be a complete and utter disaster. He quickly outlived his usefulness and it was decided that he could not have another 4 years. This is why the 2020 election went the way it did.

    There will never be another mistake like DJT and his loathsome tribe. The powers who matter will try to come closer to someone at least slightly resembling a serious individual rather than an oafish buffoon who needed to be medicated daily.

    There you have it. I remain at your service.

    ” Ann’s got a lot of time on her hands. I’d invite her to help out at the London Hospital that has 12 floors out of 15 filled with Covid patients. Or any similar hospital. They’re short of staff. Three or four critical-care patients to a nurse instead of the standard one. And only an actual critical-care nurse if you’re lucky – it’s all hands on deck just now, even if you’d never been near a ventilator before.”

    Don’t know who this Ann person is.

    My ( and I suspect very good ) guess is that plenty of people would be happy to help out at the London Hospital —

    — for 25 to 40 ( US equivalent ) dollars an hour.

    And THAT is the problem , and it was the problem before anyone ever heard of Covid.

    That is , hospitals are commonly overwhelmed , for quite mundane reasons. No pandemic required. Pandemic or no pandemic.

    Though medical schools and nursing schools are a hundred – fold larger than in , say , 1912 , there are never enough people with the requisite job skills.

    Part of the problem , I have no doubt , comes down to plain snobbery and greed.

    As I have mentioned before , I once worked in a sweatshop factory.

    The sweatshop factory made roof trusses , out of wood.

    Wood is a highly imperfect medium. After all , where does lumber come from ? It comes from a formerly LIVING THING — with all the eccentricities and vagaries implied by life.

    The perfect and flawless piece of wood is the exception , not at all the rule.

    Never the less , scores of wood – working jobs are labelled , ” unskilled labor ” , and are labelled , ” unskilled labor ” by college types whose real experience of the medium in question is that they have seen it on TV , or , ooooohh , they actually strolled through a lumber yard once !

    Those are jobs , mind you , that actually are skilled .

    But never mind.

    Never mind.

    Never mind.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if you were currently sitting under a roof built by supposed dumb asses , who , on account of their supposed ignorance , can’t pay their grocery bill out of their wages , but somehow you wind up dry enough anyway.

    On a personal note , I’m not the least bit ashamed of having been a call girl , on account of the most noble and heroic thing I ever did for my country and my fellow man ; I got pissed on for it and treated like shit. — And I don’t mean the prostitution part.

    Anyways , but 20 – to 40 dollar an hour jobs ?

    ” Skilled ” jobs ?

    No , there are never enough people to fill the available vacancies.

    No matter how many you graduate.

    Supposedly. .

    I suspect though myself that it really has a lot more to do with the reality that egalitarians trust waitresses if anything even less than the most arbitrary Fascist does.

    Or , simply ,

    20 – to 40 dollar an hour jobs say a lot more about human nature than they do about any other – than – human natural reality.

    BUT THEN OF COURSE WE HAVE ALREADY BEEN OVER THIS MATTER OF OVERWHELMED HOSPITALS .

    ………………..

    And it doesn’t have a god damned thing to do with Covid.

      “Though medical schools and nursing schools are a hundred – fold larger than in , say , 1912 , there are never enough people with the requisite job skills.

      Part of the problem , I have no doubt , comes down to plain snobbery and greed.”

      Yes I know. Doubt isn’t really your thing.

      Wise as you are, it is nevertheless worth noting that you don’t know everything, especially about other people’s countries and systems.

      There were, about 10 years ago, four centres of midwifery teaching in Scotland. I don’t know the number of nursing departments in universities offhand – it just happens that I was working with a Midwifery author/head of midwifery school at the time when two of them were closed. For economic reasons. But the economic laws that govern the number of Schools of Nursing in a university are the same as those that govern the number of Schools of Midwifery, in a place where, even with student loans and suchlike, there are caps to student fees, and a sizeable chunk of the cost of training a nurse, as with training a doctor, comes from general taxation. Which, as you are well aware, is not limitless. Unless of course Boris Johnson is chucking contracts for PPE to cronies who’ve never manufactured a paper bag before (but there’s a parliamentary committee looking into that one).

      Hence the closure of the two midwifery schools. All four had to compete with one another in order for the choice to be made as to which two would get to remain open. I got the details of this from my midwifery author and lecturer because she was responsible for the tender, as you might as well call it,, from her midwifery school. End result was fewer midwives anyway.

      I’ve mentioned before that it’s cheaper to poach a nurse or doctor someone has trained in another country, even it it’s not entirely ethical from either side. It’s how we got the NHS in the first place, after the war, to create a ‘home fit for heroes’, etc. [insert ironic smirk if you want one].

      “BUT THEN OF COURSE WE HAVE ALREADY BEEN OVER THIS MATTER OF OVERWHELMED HOSPITALS .”

      Shouty capitals or not, what is a risk during a bad flu season gets significantly worse in the event of an unexpected virus that prevents many people from breathing properly and is much more infectious than flu. I can pretty much guarantee you that the same hospital that has 12 out of 15 floors filled with Covid patients has never had 12 floors filled with flu patients.

      Not least because, at the moment, hospitals that normally have 40 intensive care beds currently have had to create another 60 or so, to try to keep pace. That means the people who would have been in the other 60 beds, normally, are having to wait for their treatment. It’s not rocket science.

      It would, of course, be possible to go down the American road and double the percentage of GDP that goes to healthcare. The NHS is the the most efficient health care system in the world, because it has to be. But it has its faults (many) and one of them is a system of micromanagement that was instituted by governments over the last few decades and which is every bit as much the reason for staff retention problems as is money (which is obviously not as freely thrown around as in the US because it doesn’t fall from trees).

      Also, you pointed out yourself that you can’t sit on unused expensive resources (underemployed nurses and beds) just because once every 10 or 20 years you’re going to need them. Or you can, but it’s not very efficient.

      “I wouldn’t be surprised if you were currently sitting under a roof built by supposed dumb asses , who , on account of their supposed ignorance , can’t pay their grocery bill out of their wages , but somehow you wind up dry enough anyway.”

      Well, you’d have to go back to about 1880 to check on that, and I suspect they weren’t particularly dumb, regardless of the time they spent in school (my maternal grandfather, born in the 1880s, spent no time at all there – he used to run home and be there before his mother got home from dropping him off at school – my mother taught him to read, but he was anything but a dumbass, by all accounts, despite earning his crust as a factory labourer).

      I’m guessing the people who built my street weren’t dumbasses, because it’s still standing after 140 years, and hopefully will for many decades after I’m gone. If you think I respect marketing managers more than I do craftsmen, that wouldn’t surprise me, but it says more about you than it does about me.

      Also, I think my husband would count himself the dumbass for his choices. If he had them to make again, he’d choose to be a carpenter, since he considers large parts of his job to be both pointless and thankless. And he’s good with his hands.

      And I don’t think you need to be ashamed of being a call girl, although you didn’t do it for your fellow man, by your own account, but to pay your mortgage off faster. All I think is that, on account of your experience, you could be a little less sanctimonious about the family values side of things. Maybe a few marriages broke up because of your activities, and maybe some of the offspring don’t have a reliable roof over their head now in consequence because of their dumbass fathers.

      The fact remains that the supply of critical care beds is er … critical. Hopefully the vaccination programme will kick in before it gets to the stage of viable patients having to be turned away, but, as I said before, if choices have to be made regarding which people get a chance to live and which people don’t, I’m happy for people like you and ‘Ann’ to make that choice and explain to the relatives why you’re making it.

          Coke Town! Dickensian! How green was your valley!

          Did you watch the videos of the women in eternal spasm? They’re in hell because of the vaccine.

          She might have saved marriages too. Some women lose all desire for sex after having a child, sometimes it never returns. Assuming they ever had any to begin with and weren’t just trying to trap the man.

          • GreenAlba January 24, 2021 at 7:03 pm #

            Yeah, the ‘prostitute as social worker’ trope has been around since the 70s. Then came the 80s and no-one even needed an excuse. Kesa affects not to approve of the sexual liberation of the mid-20th century. You can’t have it both ways.

            ‘Assuming they ever had any to begin with and weren’t just trying to trap the man.’

            I do sometimes wonder what kind of women you meet. But only sometimes! I thought men had got beyond a paranoia about being ‘trapped’.

            Regarding saving marriages, marriages are about trust and honesty. If you don’t have those, your marriage is just an ‘arrangement’. So, if the wife is OK with the call girls, no problem. She gets gigolos if she wants them too. Obviously.

            Some men lose all desire for sex too after a child – but only with their wife. Nulliparas are still good.

            Not at all. The carpet factory where my mother went to work at the age of 14 was a stunner. Designed after the Doge’s Palace in Venice. You couldn’t just stick any old thing on Glasgow Green in 1892, even if the people who worked in it had to go to the public baths once a week and wash in the kitchen sink in between. But your snobbery is noted.

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Templeton_On_The_Green

            Templeton’s carpeted your White House at one time, and the Titanic.

            Oddly I don’t ever recall her mentioning what it looked like and I’ve never seen it, but I now have a nice watercolour of it. She loved her job and was really sorry to have to leave it when she got married.

            I don’t know why you’re so surprised. Pretty much all working class kids where they were left school at 14 at that time and worked. My dad went back to night school when he was 21 and did an apprenticeship.

            “Bit of a quagmire, isn’t it?” Last year I found quotes from St. Augustine and Thomas Aquinas both opposing laws against prostitution even though they regarded the practice as sinful. They were aware of limitations of the law and of unintended consequences of some laws. I endured so many hours of religious education that never saw fit to mention this. I wish I had kept better notes of where I found this.

      If you haven’t done so, I would suggest you watch “Lincoln”, a movie starring Daniel Day Lewis, that shows what an astute politician he was and what he was up against getting the thirteenth amendment ratified to free the slaves officially. DDD is captivating in the role.

      It was not as simple as the Left wants you to think as they defame Lincoln for no reason. He put himself on the line for the Blacks and it eventually cost him his life.

    Hello people. We are evolved apes, no Jesus inspired clones, NO afterlife to aspire to. Understand that and the panorama becomes clearer.
    Sapiens are hardwired for clearly defined roles I.e. alpha, beta, etc. The need to subordinate others is deeply imbedded in the psyche of alpha’s. For all the shit Pelosi generates, her position was gained by being an ALPHA female. Same for Schumer, for all the idiotic ideas he espouses. Being Alpha does NOT mean smart people! For you religious types; To wish for the “evil” to be banished to “hell” for “sins” is not only moronic, but self limiting. Adolf is rotting in peace. No hellfire, no payback. The ONLY punishment to be metered out is in the “here” NOT hereafter! Realize that, become free to dream. Nuff Said!

      ” To wish for the “evil” to be banished to “hell” for “sins” is … ”

      Presumably I’m a Pol Pot clone.

      But , believe it or not , I scarcely ever , or never , think in those terms.

      Even if it were true ( ?? ) . believe it or not , I would wish it otherwise.

      It seems rather irrelevant to me.

      Like I heard in a TV show once ;

      ” The thing about the Death penalty is that it isn’t nearly enough , and it is far too much. ”

      Or , my all – time favorite movie scene , in the movie Unforgiven , my second – favorite movie ;

      The Schofield Kid says — ” well , they had it coming. ”

      William Munny replies — ” We all have it coming kid. ”

      Hmm , or are you yet another one of these people trying to convince me that you aren’t religious , but you swallow sainthood hook , line , and sinker ?

      ” We are evolved apes ”

      Charles Darwin and Social Darwinism are antique.

      Though I wouldn’t be surprised that you had not heard the news , and through no fault of your own.

      Like , for example , turtles , arguably , are a very simple and crude design.

      At least , the design appears to appear in the fossil record BEFORE dinosaurs , and is STILL present , and is scarcely changed.

      Now consider dinosaurs , specifically Pterosaurs.

      Arguably , to put a living thing , roughly the size of a Cessna , into the air , and with controlled flight too , is really pushing the envelope .

      Seen any Pteranodon’s flying around lately ?

      ” Sapiens are hardwired for clearly defined roles I.e. alpha, beta, etc. The need to subordinate others is deeply imbedded in the psyche of alpha’s. ”

      Now Freud really is antique .

      But , anyway , to now combine evolutionary biology and psychology ;

      How the Hell would a selfish gene know that it was selfish ?

      And supposing it does know , doesn’t knowing imply choice ?

      Hardwired beta doesn’t seem to me to explain Nancy Pelosi , or little girls who aspire to emulate Andy Sipowicz from NYPD Blue ,

      for that matter , I don’t think hardwired beta even explains little girls who suck up to Gestapo men and serial killers alike , assuming there is a difference ?

      Nor do I think that hardwired Alpha explains the apparent circumstance that Hitler would rather dully maneuver hundreds of obscure battalions around a map of Russia while sitting in an ugly sweltering Polish forest , while surrounded by an Ivy League – type caste who never forgot he was a fucking corporal ,

      instead of going home and fucking the brains out of an apparent willing nymphomaniac , who wasn’t bad – looking either.

      I don’t know , maybe Beta’s are Alpha’s disguised as Beta’s , and they rule the world ,

      And Alpha’s are beta’s too dumb to figure out they are being played ?

      But What do I know ?

      So I’ll trot out the resume of the ex – police officer George Orwell .

      I just gave you the break down of what I think was the best thing he ever wrote , entitled , ” Shooting an Elephant. ”

      ” The ONLY punishment to be metered out is in the “here” NOT hereafter! ”

      Rather like Karl Marx said , ” Religion is the opium of the masses ” ?

      Well , if I am to give Karl credit ( and I would actually rather not )

      then I suppose I have to figure that he thought that because he never lived to see Prohibition , or the War on Drugs.

      Or , as I would like to call them , Control freaks gift to Al Capone ,

      and Control freaks gift to Pablo Escobar.

      Well , granted , Alpha’s , sociopath’s , dare I say Atheists , have been known to invoke God.

      But I guess you haven’t noticed the fine detail that the Hellfire and damnation they invoke is precisely to be applied IN THE HERE .

      and as for the HEREAFTER ….

      hoo humm , well , yes, that might be a nice bonus.

      But we aren’t gonna wait till judgement day for the witch hunt !

      For my part , I really don’t see how anyone can consider the way cigarette smokers have been treated the last 30 years , the way gun collectors have been treated the last 30 years , the war on drugs , the war on crime , the shuttering of the low cost hygienic brothels ,
      the pedo thing , the Nazi thing , the Commie thing , whoever the anti- Christ in the here – and – now is supposed to be —- this week ,

      I cannot see how anyone can conclude that politicians , or would – be dictators , really want a mellowed – out , cynical , skeptical , resigned polity primarily esoterically oriented.

      It seems to me that a person who is really inclined to the hereafter is a lot LESS likely to go in for another law.

      LESS likely to buy another promise ,

      LESS susceptible to another sales pitch.

      LESS inclined to credit supposed status , or supposed expertise.

      And so on.

      And if religious rhetoric today sucks , it sucks because it is just like secular rhetoric .

      ” Me Too ” ; No real difference , no real alternative.

      Yes , you’ll read this correctly ;

      Instead of going to church , you might as well stay home and watch the Social Darwinist football game , or the revolutionary and materialist porno movie.

      You’ll get the SAME content , only perhaps more fun , and certainly less bother.

      ” you religious types ”

      Pffft !

      As I have said , JFK assassination conspiracies , the government hiding UFO’s somewhere , a rigged election , a Covid hoax ,

      All have two things in common.

      The idea , but alas implicit , stubbornly not explicit , that the government lies to you. Not little white lies for good reasons , but great big lies for bad reasons.

      And the idea that your government is no longer yours ,

      And the reason they tell you great big lies for bad reasons —

      — well , the bad reason is they judge you a stupid nigger.

      For all the Leftist ridicule of these conspiracy theories ,

      I , for my part , for my purposes, would prefer if you believed none of them.

      ( except the Covid thing , except that is scarcely any sort of refined conspiracy. As I have pointed out ad naseum , the whole thing is debunked with their own worst numbers and the simplest of math. )

      For example , go right ahead and just assume JFK was the rotter son of a Boston gangster , and killed by the kid in school nobody hung out with.

      And now , well what follows then is theoretical ,

      You are now left with what was the implicit sub text , now explicit text.

      ” I hates the Yankee nation , and everything they do.

      I hates the Declaration of Independence too.

        You always provide the simple maths of populations and deaths. Never the maths of patients and hospitals.

        Hospital systems are rarely designed to deal with much in the way of outliers. If they were, they couldn’t be afforded. They can hardly be afforded as it is.

        The number of deaths is really neither here nor there in the management of the living. If every infected person ended up in hospital and nobody actually died, your maths would be meaningless and the situation would be infinitely worse.

Masks go on religiously, people stay home in their sanctuaries, the cases drop, people get complacent, holidays, the cases surge. That is it.

            The US is a place where individual responsibility is paramount, or at least it used to be. Hoaxers are politicking against a government that lies to them constantly, and do the opposite as a matter of course.

            Covid is not a big killer, does not attack kids, but is contagious more than anything else except maybe measles. The Left has just destroyed the best economy in history, one in which all boats, including global ones were rising. The globalists could not stand the competition, including China, And yes, I believe the crud was launched at the US and Europe to destroy the increasing prosperity.

            The degree that the Democratic Party participated ??? If this is ever proven, doubtful, there are a number of Dems that should be lined up on the wall. A few RINOs too.

            Should everyone “kow tow” to this government that might have initiated the crud in the first place? NO!

            Should everyone mitigate by best “scientific” practices to protect them selves and others, ie have a social conscience? Perhaps.

            Should we let. ‘Er rip, like the flu? Absolutely not, if you want any medical care outside of Covid.

            John: It’s hard to keep all the facts in one’s consciousness, but only by so doing can one come to the correct conclusion: Again, 85% of people who come down with it were mask wearers.

            And even more basic: Almost everyone recovers from it – just like the cold. The elderly who don’t were on their way out anyway. The very few others had some great weakness or co-morbidity.

      Q isn’t what you seem to think it is. Its reach was not that far, nor was it that consequential.

      Most anyone that believed in Q that I have ever come across (online or in the real world), did not follow it that closely and seemed more interested in the general themes it discussed (government corruption) and the commentary on the obvious lies that were given sunlight by Trump.

      The media has been gaslighting about “conspiracy theories” since at least 2001. Q reminds me of PIzzagate, where obviously shady things (Wiki Podesta mails, Tony Podesta’s readily googleable pedophilic art collection, Comet’s pedo owner) were making people curious.

      The narrative that came from both Q and Pizzagate was a highly embellished McMedia fantasy that they could use in their own circular citation process where they all claim truth while sourcing one and other.

      I have no doubt Q was a LARP, but the point is that it was created to continue the “conspiracy” narrative, which allowed the McMedia to also indulge in some of the foiliest foil ever seen (Manchurian Candidate fantasies, Jill Stein a Russian “secret agent,” etc.).

      • Yohannon January 24, 2021 at 2:22 pm #

        Well said. At one point they started saying Pizzagate had been debunked. Show us the debunk. What really happened is that the Police aren’t allowed to do their job and then the perps come after those who called them out. Jones was forced to publicly apologize or face a lawsuit from one of the most powerful men in Washington – the owner of a couple of small businesses. That’s more proof right there.

        Now they’re coming after Sidney Powell because no one was allowed to do their job.

        • Night Owl January 24, 2021 at 4:57 pm #

          Long before the DC sex ring info. ever came out, I played rock shows at Comet.

          That place was always creepy. I saw the murals depicting child abuse by the tables. Another interesting thing was the “hidden bathroom,” which got a lot of attention as you had to push a false wall in and activate a mechanism that revealed the entrance to the bathroom. The whole concept was just bizarre, and given what has come out about Alefantis’s connections to Tony Podesta, and his social media accounts, I would say an investigation into the guy’s private life is certainly warranted.

          As you mention, the fact that he was one of the most influential people in DC also makes no sense. A pizza man with big pull posting lewd comments about kids on social media and hanging with guys that collect pedo art.

          All normal.

    I see the winners having a good time rubbing it into their uneducated low iq inferiors.

    The hidden part of the foundation of nation at work:

    “… Thereby comes an unfortunate situation where the “people” have to severe the umbilical cords that tie us to the existing serfs and get us new serfs… ”

    The better “people”, those with education, with higher IQ, with better position, have decided. Those who create things like facebook etc has decided.

    Just as people like janos always wanted.

    Too bad. So sad.

      You’re slandering now. Each nation has its own serfs. Why should we have to replace ours with yours? The serfs or sudras are the feet of the nation. If we replace our White feet with Black feet, they may take us where we do not want to go.

        If not for the Brits stopping the slave trade, your southern states might have been a monstrous Haiti.

        I interacted with blacks when I drove taxi a few years. (Having read the archdruid and our host, I am struggling in a rented farm now) I have no idea why your betters like them so much.

        The problem you have had been there at least since the Enclosure Act.

        Your betters imagine they can rule over the new serfs; not remembering what happened in Haiti.

        It is just that I feel Trump was your last chance.

    The way Big Media is covering Biden, I haven’t seen anything like it since ’08, when they proclaimed Obama to be The Messiah. The word ‘Sycophant’ doesn’t quite describe it. MSNBC went so far as to compare Biden to Jesus Christ himself — yet, Biden has a 50 year track record to examine, in which he’s proven himself to be nothing more than a run of the mill pol looking for the Main Chance.

    Almost all of their reporting seems like DNC agit/prop; is it meant to be taken seriously?

    These media people in Atlanta, NY and DC, they have no problem debasing themselves in front of a national audience? What’s the goal? Do they think we’re all stupid out here, that we can’t see thru them?

I believe the videos they made — totalling in the hundreds — hurt the presidents re election chances.

          The “vaccines” are voluntary, as is military service. Nobody can force you into ANYTHING if you really insist you don’t want to. You just have to be insistent and not let the fscks play their mind games with you.

    However, the conservative movement will get no where in the future if a counter media is not created that effectively cancels out these moron pundits. If Trump wants a new party, he needs to create a new media and social media to offset the lies these stations come up with.

      John, the Left has been in control of all institutions and everything in the Western world for centuries. There hasn’t been anything actually Conservative happening since the Middle Ages. So yes, everyone is living and breathing Leftisms. An actual Conservative media will require the formation of a new Conservative civilization. I don’t say Liberal because real Leftists have no idea what Liberal actually is or means.

      • Yohannon January 24, 2021 at 2:50 pm #

        But no Conservative civilization will be possible without a prior Conservative media. You need experience to get experience.

        I think we need to focus on the local, but have the willingness and means to cooperate across localities. When this Babylon System falls, we’d then be able to rise up quickly and unite against outside threats. Our own medias could keep us linked up and unified until the great undoing.

        Of course if the System falls we might be cut off for awhile. Or even permanently. But the good communications of all those years wouldn’t have been in vain. Localities would understand their next door neighbors when they met because of them. So the re-linking up would be slower and more organic in that case.

        My fear is that they won’t let us create a culture within a culture or give us the time to do so before they attempt conquest and/or genocide.

However, I do think that if they were to launch immediate attacks there will be far more resistance (whether its ultimately effective or not I don’t know) than if they continue to boil the frog further and whittle away more at our resolve. Though the frog may be overboiled at this point? I am hopeful that there can be a breakup of the system. But the normalcy bias will prevent massive changes unless enough people are directly suffering.

        And 50 states certified their elections, and 60 court cases failed to lead to a ruling that there was election fraud. So why should George Stephanopoulos (or anyone else) “report” on a fraud that has not been demonstrated by any authority – including many Republican ones?

          It would settle down except for one thing that you folks have not and cannot address.

          Thousands of people reported fraud on affidavits that would have perjured them, were all these people wrong? Many IT experts condemned the Dominion ballot counters as being hackable, many leads followed overseas.

          What makes me the most suspicious is the unanimity of the response. No one, as you mentioned, no one thought they needed to investigate the means of voting, mail in ballots being generated out of thin air and transported in the wee hours. Not one single American judge or official thought to investigate anything. Recounts are bogus, they just recount the bogus ballots. Big whoop!

          Biden will never have an unchallenged election. Like Barry Bonds, he will have an asterisk behind his name.

          Also, how come nobody is looking further now into the Dominion machines, were they capable of being manipulated? If so, did both sides have knowledge of this, or was the manipulation Leftist oriented like Twitter, or Google or Facebook? If the third party is initiated, they need to start investigating the fraud before the next election.

            Stephanopoulos agreed with Rand Paul at one point that there was election fraud he then stammered and realized he needed to fix that statement with a but not enough to change the results.

            Rand took him to task yet the mcmedia claims the reverse.
            Much like the four years of Russian collusion delusion the amount of ignoring reality and denial is astounding.

            Biden is the biggest fraud of our lifetime.

            That’s like Jeb Bush counting the ballots in Florida during the Bush vs. Gore election.

            Yes volks nothing to see here move along.
            Hey now the certain Democrat lawmakers are accusing new Republican elected Representatives of staging and assisting the much maligned Capitol invasion.
            Remember Democrats accuse others of what they themselves are thinking or doing.

            in Saul Alinsky’s book, “Rules for Radicals,” Alinsky states, “Accuse your opponent of what you are doing to create confusion and to inculcate voters against evidence of your own guilt.”

            So lets look at some other direct quotes from the guy that has shaped much of the current Democrat movers and shakers.

            Regarding Trumps treatment by the leftist scum.

            Alinsky would find an external antagonist to turn into a “common enemy” for the community within which he was operating. Often, this would be a local politician or agency that had some involvement with activity concerning the community. Once the enemy was established, the community would come together in opposition of it. This management of conflict heightened awareness within the community as to the similarities its members shared as well as what differentiated them from those outside of their organization.[4] The use of conflict also allowed for the goal of the group to be clearly defined. With an established external antagonist, the community’s goal would be to defeat that enemy.

            Change means movement. Movement means friction. Only in the frictionless vacuum of a nonexistent abstract world can movement or change occur without that abrasive friction of conflict. -Saul Alinsky

            To say that corrupt means corrupt the ends is to believe in the immaculate conception of ends and principles. The real arena is corrupt and bloody. Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life. -Saul Alinsky

            The seventh rule of the ethics of means and ends is that generally success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics. The judgment of history leans heavily on the outcome of success or failure; it spells the difference between the traitor and the patriotic hero. There can be no such thing as a successful traitor, for if one succeeds he becomes a founding father.

            I have on occasion remarked that I felt confident that I could persuade a millionaire on a Friday to subsidize a revolution for Saturday out of which he would make a huge profit on Sunday even though he was certain to be executed on Monday.

            “What makes me the most suspicious is the unanimity of the response. No one, as you mentioned, no one thought they needed to investigate the means of voting, mail in ballots being generated out of thin air and transported in the wee hours. Not one single American judge or official thought to investigate anything.”

            JAZ

            As I have said previously, I remain agnostic about whether widespread fraud occurred – but I do mostly remain sceptical that it could have been so successfully executed.

            However I agree with you that the unanimity of the behaviour of basically all state electoral boards, other decision-making officials, secretaries of state, and then some 85 judges and justices – is intriguing indeed.

            It seems to me there are three possibilities:

            1. There was no fraud, and it was “the best election ever”.
            2. The fraud was so clever(!) that the deceived everybody who mattered
            3. Donald Trump was so deeply disliked by enough – media, justice types, Republicans, and Democrats alike – that despite credible evidence of shenanigans, they all covered it up or ignored it … the prize being the removal of Donald Trump.

            Perhaps George Soros, Bill Gates, and the Illuminati paid them all off …

            My best guess – there was no significant fraud sufficient to change the overall result, and that the vast majority of claims, affidavits, alleged videos, and so on, are either easily explained away, or are the product of those who really were already convinced there was fraud.

            But I concede that many people hold strong views that it either was not fraud, or that it was, and neither side is going to be easily persuaded that they are wrong.

          The evidence was never presented in court.

          If no evidence is presented, it cannot be judged.

          Sidney Powell and her former federal prosecutor colleagues, and Johan Pulitzer have two highly detailed reports with reams of evidence. Pulitzer himself hacked into voting machines to show how easy it was.

          You have nothing but the repetition of empty talking points. The male Majella.

    Just watched Wallace, what a fool, on Fox.
    He was talking to Biden’s CDC head.

    Holy cow! All you folks that thought Biden knew what to do about Covid are going to have a rude awakening.

    Her most significant statement was that they do not have a clue how many or where the vaccine doses are. Five days into control and they do not have a clue what the situation is. She said, I cannot tell states or locales where the doses are. Great!

    She was so happy that the Fauci crowd was still around and that they were now liberated. Great!

    She said that the CDC had to win back the trust of the people. Hmmm. Does that mean they are going to fire Fauci? Who has confused the issues since the beginning? Who has contributed zero to the scientific discussion of Covid since last March, the CDC and Fauci? Trump tried as a layman to generate ideas like quinine and internal cleansing, like straw men and was ridiculed for it. Curing the crud, washing it out, however it is done needs to be the solution.

    Not waiting for a scientific community, NOT, to come up with a vaccine that may or may not be effective against strains that already exist.

    Scientific community, my ass. Y et al may be absolutely right. Let ‘er rip may be the solution because our illustrious government will screw up and delay everything.

      The fool is the person(s) that hired him. Wallace almost single-handedly destroyed FoxNews. Its ratings now are lower than CNN. They lost all credibility. Tucker and some of the others, whom I like, better find another place, because if they continue there, they too will lose all credibility.

    • benr January 24, 2021 at 10:08 pm #

      That’s because it was all about getting Trump at all costs even if it all but destroyed the economy.

      Well with the election fraud you assholes bought it and Joe as well as the DNC own it.
      They deserve the hell that is going to rain down on them.

      Oh who are we kidding no one is going to report it they would not even show how out of it Joe was.

    Black couple beat their adopted three year old White daughter to death.
    Before the incident, the mother, an aspiring comedian, was tweeting about her White privilege.

    Being adopted by such hateful people – she had privilege? You wonder who is going to do the dirty work of the State against us? This is a clue.

      They’ll be picking off the little ones first, the helpless and the innocent.

      I notice last summer BLM/Antifa’s campaign to take the fight to the suburbs, to ‘make Whitey uncomfortable’ didn’t get too far. It got as far as a small town in Pennsy, where a BLM caravan rolling from Chicago to DC began harassing local hicks in the middle of the night, flashing lights into their homes and shouting slogans thru electronic bullhorns; the response was the crack of gunfire.

    Just a thought.

    Is anybody suspicious that the shortfall in vaccines that the CDC head talked about today could be because big pharma is selling it to other countries that are paying higher prices? Cuomo says NY is about out, appts are being cancelled elsewhere, second inoculation are jeopardized, she even said that the CDC is moving the second inoculation out to six weeks because of shortages.

    Where are all the vaccines going? We’re Trump’s predictions of how many vaccines could be produced overstated, or is something more nefarious going on

    • Soul Forensics January 24, 2021 at 9:36 pm #

      Really? I read a news story today saying Fauci promises “a floor” of one million jabs in the next one hundred days.

      Oh, and that the South African strain is “a little concerning” to him. In other words, prep for the populace to get used to the idea of another massive jab rollout shortly thereafter.

        It won’t hurt Beijing Biden he has the most of the propaganda wing of the DNC in his pocket.
        He sure has not done much of anything different in response to his power grab in the way of changing policy when it comes to dealing with the “pandemic.”

      Flimsiest impeachment in history the Dems have made a mockery of impeaching a President.

        “Flimsiest impeachment in history ”

        I think it’s pretty flimsy as well, not that any of the few that have occurred were that solid … but I guess the reality is that an impeachable offense is whatever a majority in Congress decides is an impeachable offense.

        The most intriguing unknown is whether Mitch McConnell wants to rid the Republican Party of Trump and Trumpism to get clear air for 2022-2024, and if he does, whether he can rustle up 16 other GOP senators to vote with him to convict.

      Tom you stated that you are an evangelical Christian. If this is the case then I would think your approach to this situation wouldn’t be encouragement or incitement. As people supposedly get their jollies from these political games actual lives are being destroyed. But then again, the American “Church” for the most part is nothing more than the Synagogue of Satan and a house of vipers. Since you always take the high road perhaps you could offer real solutions and provide actual leadership. Is that in you Tom?
