The Meaning of Incredible

We’re witnessing the destruction of every institution in the land and nobody knows how to stop it….

The CDC seems to think nobody will notice its crimes, and the crimes of its sister agencies, FDA, NIAID, NIH (and the White House Task Force) if it strolls jauntily into the fall season whistling a happy a tune: Nevermind Covid anymore, la la la…. Did I say crimes? Yes, I did. As in gross violations of the law and the basic social contract.

They lied about their roles in the nefarious origins of SARS CoV-2. They conjured up — already had waiting, actually — dangerous genetic treatments masquerading as “vaccines” and then they faked the safety trials to rush them into use. They denied people proper, effective treatments with inexpensive drugs and killed them with ventilators and remdesivir — solely to maintain a fraudulent emergency use authorization (EUA) that shielded “vaccine” companies from lawsuits. Once the “vaccines’ were widely distributed — and forced upon many people with mandates — they confabulated and hid information about adverse reactions and deaths. They destroyed countless small businesses, livelihoods, households, and hindered children’s development with lockdowns. And they used both social and news media to censor their critics in direct violation of the first amendment. That’s all.

Oh, one more thing: they destroyed modern medicine. They will probably assist in the destruction of law, too, because the legal system will never be able to handle the volume of lawsuits against all parties involved in the Covid “vaccine” mass slaughter — including the corporations that forced their employees to get vaxxed and the pharma companies themselves, who will lose their EUA protections once their fraud is proven. And they will hasten the death of an already ailing financial system that can’t bear the wealth transfers implied in the foregoing (on top of the worst debt crisis in human history).

You think I exaggerate? We’re sailing into the flu season with millions of people whose immune systems are wrecked by multiple shots of mRNA novelty drugs. They are also susceptible to many viruses and bacteria which normally lurk in everybody’s bodily ecosystem, but would be controlled by otherwise healthy immune systems. Likewise, their hacked immune systems are no longer able to suppress cancers — many forms of which are already way up above normal statistical levels. Not to mention damage done to cardiovascular systems by spike proteins, which linger in human bodies for more than a year after “vaccine” shots, as well as neurological and brain damage.

Former Wall Street analyst Edward Dowd said yesterday (Aug 18) that a Society of Actuaries report just made public shows that a 20 percent uptick in excess deaths among working age people, which began with vaxx mandates in the fall of 2021, continued into the second quarter of 2022.  Actuaries are the people who compile and analyze statistics for insurance companies.

So, all week the CDC has been walking-back one “guidance” after another. No more compulsory testing, no more contact-tracing, no more social distancing, no more treating the unvaxxed differently than the vaxxed (though the “Joe Biden” regime still won’t allow unvaxxed travelers into the USA), no more vaxx mandates (except, apparently, the US military). Oh, and they’ve conceded that their “vaccines” do not remain in the deltoid muscle, but actually leak all over the body. Note: whatever else the public health agencies are saying or doing right now, they are still promoting the mRNA vaccines, and lying about their safety and effectiveness — because if they told the truth, they would be completely discredited and surely subject to criminal prosecution. And they are still suppressing cheap and effective treatment protocols while promoting remdesivir and the useless (plus expensive) Paxlovid.

The CDC capped the week’s walk-back campaign by announcing a major overhaul of how the agency works. (The FDA and other public health entities made no such promises.) CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, fronting for other little-known federal  bigwigs actually called in to clean-up after her, made the hilarious statement: “I look forward to working with the incredible people at CDC and our partners to realize the agency’s fullest potential to benefit the health and well-being of all Americans.” What a dim bulb. Does she know the definition of the word incredible? (Here it is: impossible to believe.)

Of course, the more sobering picture is that virtually all American institutions are now incredible, impossible to believe, starting from the top: “Joe Biden” as president. The executive branch of the government is being run by Barack Obama and a claque around him and is being run into the ground either on-purpose or out of astounding incompetence. Attorney General Merrick Garland flamboyantly disgraces the very idea of justice with Stalinesque political prosecutions. FBI Director Christopher Wray flouts every attempt to extract the truth about his agency’s operations, and at least half the country believes he’s turned it into a secret police operation like the Gestapo. The college presidents and deans have dishonored the idea of truth-seeking with their cowardly submission to Jacobin-Marxist maniacs and their program of anti-knowledge. And who in America really trusts his doctor? (Not me. Mine is the “chief medical officer” of my network and he’s still pushing “vaccines.”)

We allowed this to happen. We tolerated this exorbitant abuse by runaway authorities-gone-criminal. We let them get away with their bullshit about “defending our democracy” when they are actively and visibly destroying it. Serious people must be seriously asking themselves: what will it take to stop them now?

    “Speaking words of wisdom: let it be.”

    But we can’t just let it be. Is it because we are unwise?
    No, it’s just because we all are what we were meant to be.

    We can only blame/dismiss The Creator if we firmly believe we would have had done better. But, in plain honesty, how can we tell?

    Radical acceptance – Brutal candor: we aren’t lost, therefore we can’t be saved.

    The things we are doing to help our children will eventually hurt our great-grandchildren.
    Is this a flaw?
    No, it is a feature: we can only act as long as we remain clueless about the future.

    We arguably care about our children but we don’t care that much about their children – that’s mankind’s distinctive watermark, our greatest claim to fame.

    Things proceed according to plan: molecules being rearranged, bodies and minds turning into something else – chaos & order are not enemies, more like symbiotic parasites.

    • hmuller August 19, 2022 at 10:44 am #

      Love those deep thoughts, Armenio. But while we’re thinking them, let’s not forget to string up the bastards for crimes against humanity. Fauci is no better than Mengele.

      • Sean Coleman August 19, 2022 at 11:34 am #

        From memory, my understanding is that Mengele lived under his own name in Germany after the war ended, working as a stable hand, before emigrating to Argentina in 1949, where he continued to live under his real name and that he also took out Uruguayan citizenship under his own name. When the search began for Eichmann and he was kidnapped to face (a kind of) trial in Jerusalem it seems the heat was turned up on Mengele and he took a false name. What does this tell us?

        • hmuller August 19, 2022 at 12:32 pm #

          I was comparing the moral standing of Mengele and Fauci. I would hope the latter is not as slippery and successful at evading justice.

          What does this tell us? Maybe that some of the WW2 victors were soft on punishing the useful or well connected Nazi’s. Reference: Operation Paperclip.

          • justanotherguy August 19, 2022 at 8:31 pm #

            fauci has not been arrested (yet) and tried under a hostile and critical body of morality based law.

            “The CDC capped the week’s walk-back campaign by announcing a major overhaul of how the agency works.”

            scott adams had a hilarious analog to this years ago, where the pointy haired guy was noting that the skeletons in the closet were getting crowded. the answer was – another re-org.

            point is, when a company or govt does it, it is seldom to fix it, when it can be hidden much more easily.

        • BackRowHeckler August 19, 2022 at 1:02 pm #

          Mengele was a sociopath who used his Nazi Party membership as cover to conduct his bizarre medical experiments. He was a late joiner to the Party who signed up when he found out he could gain access to human specimens by working in the camps. He was no ideological Nazi. Mengele was similar to Mafiosa like Tommy ‘Karate’ Pitera and Roy Demeo, 1970s & 80s serial killers who determined that being a member of the Bonanno and Gambino families would protect them and allow to them to go on their killing sprees.

            I’d need to be pretty sure that my sources weren’t tainted by a tribe of inveterate liars before I shared your beliefs.

        • Alzaebo August 19, 2022 at 1:16 pm #

          It tells us the whole Mengele-Block 11 story is absurdist fantasy trash cooked up by a group of lying psychopaths called CANDLS.

          • Alzaebo August 19, 2022 at 1:22 pm #

            No, actually, the whole project was all an intelligence test.

            Anybody stupid enough to believe claims so ludicrous deserved to be enslaved, was their thinking.

            How the perpetrators must’ve laughed up their sleeves as good and innocent people lapped up the continuing charade without a moment’s doubt or hesitation.

          • Sean Coleman August 19, 2022 at 2:08 pm #

            Your reply is the closest to my own thoughts.

            What it tells me is that Mengele was a nobody in 1945 and that he saw no reason to hide.

            It tells me that the H story had only reached its final form, more or less, by the Sixties if not later.

            And, if I knew nothing about the subject, it would strongly indicate that the Mengele story was built on eye witness fantasies and nothing else.

            It would not tell me that he was being protected by Nazi sympathizers. An absurd idea.

          • BackRowHeckler August 19, 2022 at 2:14 pm #

            The hellacious medical experiments conducted on allied prisoners by Unit 731, Japanese Imperial Army, were hair raising. The Soviet Union had Dept. X, whose mission seemed to be find out how little a gulag prisoner could be fed, how much cold he could endured, and how much heat he could take, and still put in a 12 hour day in the Vorkuta Coal mines. (Where Brittany Greiner is mining coal for Victory in Ukraine and the Glory of Mother Russia)

        @hmuller

        String ’em up we should – and string ’em up we eventually will (I’m convinced some of us will at least try.)
        But that won’t appease us – The Everlasting Dissatisfaction do not allow this.

        Fight without rage
        Kill without resentment
        Die without regrets
        Perhaps that’s the whole of nobility we can aspire to.

    • Walter B August 19, 2022 at 7:45 pm #

      But we will let it be. We, as a people, will do nothing other than whine and moan and in the end, reelect the same old criminal assholes that are planning our deaths. You doubt that? Well, that is pretty naive, because why in the world would any of them who live in excess luxury have any care whatsoever about we, the useless eaters of the world, and how we should be treated? The sooner that you realize that someone is trying to kill you, the better off you will be.

    • BackRowHeckler August 20, 2022 at 1:39 pm #

      Hey ARMENIO! Isn’t that a little esoteric and ephemeral for a site called Clusterfuck Nation?

    • liber8tor August 20, 2022 at 11:16 pm #

      Very true. We are not lost so we don’t need to be found. We know exactly where we are…up the creek. 🙂

      What’s so puzzling, this is nothing new..this hoax has been perpetrated by the same priests and court jesters since almost 4000BC. (that’s a lot of history to assimilate)

      We don’t want to” build back better”…we want to create something new for our children’s children. (a path out of this prison planet they have created) Humans are part of the ecosystem/biosphere, and will/must move forward.

      Seems Basefook don’t like your Blurb JH

      Garnered me an immediate 30 day ban for transgressing their ‘Community values’

      Those are the same values that trumpets the vaxxine poisons as ‘Safe, effective and efficacious’ which they obviously aren’t what with all those dead and damaged bodies lying around the world because of them.

      Though Fauci, the CDC and all their mates are telling a different story these days having done a huge volte face… I think Basefook have some catching up to do! :o)

    “What will it take to stop them now?”

    Nothing. Because “they” will not be “stopped.”

    They will move on.

    To be lobbyists.

    To be on CNN.

    To be in another government agency.

    We’re just the audience.

    Sounds like a call to arms! Just kidding, slightly. It’s not far off before the PTB will start prosecuting for less. I always wanted to ask, James, at what point in this downhill slide do you call it quits and man the bastions ?

      • Anthea August 19, 2022 at 11:47 pm #

        @ happiface:

        I agree. Seems to me that our currency will be worthless at some point down the road.

        I started reading “When Money Dies,” which is about Weimar inflation. The thing is, we don’t live in that kind of society. It will be impossible to keep the lid on things when our money dies. The east and west coasts, especially, will be largely burnt to a cinder.

        Historically, collapsing societies became vulnerable to outside invasion, but the US will probably be such a basket case that no one will want to invade. (It already is.)

        Civilizations at the end stages of collapse don’t reform and come back to life.

    • Jarek August 19, 2022 at 12:24 pm #

      Tucker was talking about this last night. Law and Order is the most basic and fundamental past of the Social Contract. We give them money and they protect us so that orderly life and business can go on.

      They’ve broken the contract. Anyone who promises to restore the Contract will win the Election, all other things being equal – as Nixon did. And he carried through with him promise. That is his legacy, not “opening” China and starting the destruction of our economy.

      Watergate was peanuts compared to what the Democrats are getting away with now.

      • Alzaebo August 19, 2022 at 1:30 pm #

        Nixon was a good and honest American patriot from the wrong school. He was the Trump of his time; Watergate was a setup by the emergent postwar elites to force him out.

        I met his best friend, we had some stories. A good joe, a regular guy, from the time when being at the top of a world-class corporation didn’t require the worship of Baphomet.
        We are ruled by a cult, now.

        • Alzaebo August 19, 2022 at 1:39 pm #

          p.s.- how did Nixon meet his best friend?

          Dick and Pat were driving their car across Indiana and got caught in a blizzard. The first small motel they could find didn’t have enough rooms, so stranded travelers had to double up with other guests.

          Dick and Pat Nixon hit it off with the other couple with whose room they shared, the two couples became fast friends. One man went on to run that world-class corporation, the other went on to become President.

          That’s the kind of people they were.
          That’s the kind of people WE were, too.

          • chimayred August 20, 2022 at 10:22 pm #

            well, let’s give credit where credit is due and not when it’s not.
            I voted for Nixon, so I remember the man.
            He was not a “conservative”. He was a big government republican. He was not nearly as destructive ideologically as LBJ or Carter and its always tough to determine what catastrophes in an administration can be laid at the president’s feet, but arguably RMN was the most profound president we ever had just based on what occured in his tenure:
            Started the EPA
            Got us off the gold standard
            Created petrodollars
            Orchestrated the russian wheat deal.
            Instituted price controls at one time for meat.
            18 year olds got the vote (IMHO the most seminal catastrophe short of Carter/9/11/Covid).
            Started loosening relations with China (good or bad; you decide) but an enormous legacy.
            His book The Real War outlined how to defeat the spectre of Soviet communism without firing a shot. Reagan got the credit, but RMN set the table. Enormous.
            Ended the Vietnam War. Yes, he did. I held a draft card and my lottery # was 21 but it was the year he ended the war; drew the lottery, but didn’t draft anyone. You may not like him, but he did promise to do this, and he did.

            I’m not commenting on whether these were good or bad, but compared, say, to a nothing like Clinton or Obama, this is one hell of a legacy. (OK. The EPA has been a catastrophe, taking us off the gold standard was a catastrophe, and giving 18 year olds the right to vote is a catastrophe).

        • BackRowHeckler August 19, 2022 at 2:18 pm #

          Well, Nixon outed Bernstein’s father as a Communist agent in the late 1940s — and was a big all around anti communist witch hunter. It took 20 years for the left to get even, but it got even.

    • UN OUT OF USA August 19, 2022 at 11:51 am #

      AP, sadly that is more true than not. Think about Ukraine. In 2014 when the US-backed Nazis overthrew the democratically elected President Viktor Yanukovych, and replaced him with a US/EU puppet (Poroshenko), what did 2 eastern regions of Ukraine (Lugansk and Donetsk Republics) do? They revolted and said, hell no, we don’t accept the fraud election! They were attacked and have been defending themselves ever since. Eight long years of constant shelling and murder by the US-backed Nazis. Alone in their fight against the fraud until Putin/Russia came to their defense on Feb 24 of this year. Now think about us here in America. What did we do in 2020 when our presidential election was stolen? Not a damn thing (of consequence). See the difference? The Ukrainians were willing to fight and die for their cause, but not us. We are too soft and dumbed down. Looking for a leader, someone to rally around. But not just on keyboards but out on the street (and woods, etc.). Until we are willing to fight this fraud/corruption, we will continue to be taken advantage of and will lose more and more of our “freedoms”. We are way past talking/typing about grievances.

        Honestly, I think we are just too big to hold enough common threads between us anymore. We still feel a part of the collective here in the US, but it increasingly feels that in general, a guy in Seattle or NYC doesn’t see any connection, parity, or responsibility to care about a guy in Des Moines, IA or a guy in Poplar Bluff, MO. And that goes both ways. That ain’t good.

        We are too big and too numerous and too diverse.
        And Odessa and Mariupol fought back and were smashed by the Nazis.
        They even headquartered the Azoz battalion in Mariupol, where they terrorized the population for 8 years.
        Oh, and we don’t have Russia to come to our rescue. We have no one.
        I watched as Mariupol was liberated and the citizens were telling the Russians “We waited for you for 8 years”. So they had hope.

        Who are we waiting for, ourselves? Look around.

            Oh? What is he then?

            Lots of people wear Nazi type regalia so as to advertise their toughness, be it real or otherwise.

            I admit there is a historical connection, but they may well have deviated from the original ideas of German National Socialism. In any case, National Socialist theory states that each nation would have its own National Socialism, one consonant with its own history and traditions. So if they are “Nazis” they aren’t Nazis since they should have their own National Socialism, not a German one.

            Quite so, Lord Jarek, the Ukrainian Nazis are descended from Stepan Bandera’s local version of SS units; the Banderistas, if I remember rightly, were so out of control they were disowned by the German Reich.

            They were the ultra-nationalist, uniquely Ukrainian answer to the Jewish Communist partisans who were capturing and brutally torturing lawfully uniformed soldiers, far, far outside the Geneva Convention, leaving them as an example to terrorize the rest Apache-style on the Eastern front.

            What UN OUT, like most Americans, does not recognize are the strategies and tactics of a completely alien culture. A permanent minority maneuvers in ways that that we don’t recognize.

            I had left a longer missive of the Straussian Kagan neocon cabal in the US, and their Soros Orange occupation government in the Ukraine, but it glitched, and I have erased it.

            UN, these gangsters work with outsiders all the time, and have done so for millenia. A minority within a minority, they are masters at force multipliers.

      • Anthea August 21, 2022 at 11:10 am #

        Let’s suppose that some meaningful resistance emerged–a group that was prepared to…um…do what?

        A short list of outrages would include the following institutions that need to be removed/overthrown:

        The health care system, along with it concommitant insurance scams, including Obamacare

        The public education system

        The tax system at the federal, state, and county levels (property tax)

        The banking system

        The monetary system

        The regulatory system, especially as it applies to business and agriculture

        The various systems conferring monopolies and subsidies on business and agriculture

        These are the big problem areas. What are the possible approaches to extirpating these numerous nests of corruption?

        The only possible solution is secession–and any state or confederation of states that decided to secede would need replacement institutions already largely in place.

        You can see the problem.

        I think the health care system could be largely cleaned up by making illegal for insurance companies to sell anything but catastrophic coverage. Re costs of prescription drugs, it seems to me that drug stores could buy directly from Mexico–or China–for pennies.

        The public school system should be shut down altogether.

        Allow no collection of federal income tax or SS tax. There should be no property tax on a person’s primary residence or acreages up to about 120 acres. (That’s about the size of a family farm in Missouri, but much more acreage would be needed in some other states.) I think property tax is a good idea on second homes and very extensive acreages because it discourages one single person or entity from buying up all the land. E.g., tax the ever-loving SHIT out of Bill Gates’s large land holdings.

        Kick out the big banks, giving them the option of selling their assets to small community banks (at a DEEP) discount. (Their other option would be to pound sand.) E.g., Bank of America or Wells Fargo owns your mortage. It must be sold to the Bank of Sweet Springs at a discount–which discount must be passed on the mortagagor. If the Bank of Sweet Spring was able to purchase the mortgage at a 50% or 75% discount, your mortage is now reduced by 50% or 75%.

        The seceding state would need a currency. I would suggest gold and silver.

        Do away with all regulations, monopolies, and subsidies.

      better be a living coward with some cash, enjoying the company of the vast multitude of other cowards, than a broke, lonely (and dead) hero.

      Yep. This is the mentality I see nearly everywhere.

      And I succumb to it as well.

      History is made by the few that are willing to buck that mindset, but the risks generally outweigh the rewards in maintaining a “normal”daily life, by far.

      The change almost always occurs after it’s too late, and they’ve lost those comforts that have always been so normal to them.. It’s happened over and over again throughout history, and we’ve all read it and acknowledged it. Yet people don’t tend to speak up until the problem comes to their door…or their bank account…or [insert your life-changing line in the sand here].

            It’s like whether or not Albert Pike actually wrote what he’s credited as writing regarding freemasonry and the planned world wars, or whether or not the Protocols Of The Elders of Zion was a real document in government library, or was “planted there” at some point to skew opinion.

          The suggestion that White civilization is a sham is told to you by arrogant wannabe’s who will never comprehend or be what we are, and they’ve been trying for thousands of years. No one even comes close, so take that envious bile and stick it.

            But only three people were actually supposedly “there”. All masons, all looking guilty when they “got back”.

            Everyone else received a feed to their computer screens from “somewhere” and (most, I presume) assumed the data was real.

            Everything has been “accidentally erased”, the technology needed to get us back to the moon “has been destroyed”. Oops. We have to figure out how to make a spacesuit again, because we forgot how it was done.

            Never happened.

            But they will put on a good show in coming years, considering that I could make a video that looks like I landed on the moon with today’s technology.

            My main issue is that they’ve been caught lying about plenty of things, some live broadcasts from space, green-screen glitches that show they are in a studio, etc. If they lied once, first question is why? Second question is what else is being lied about?

            That’s all.

            I know I can fool others. Therefore I presume many people are doing the same to me and us as a whole.

            As for smart phones and GPS…it’s easily doable with low-earth orbit satellites. Does the job. Few hundred miles up is what we’ve got (as NASA admits themselves, we don’t currently have the tech to get past low-earth orbit)…yet we went to the moon in a trash can in 1969 with a computer with the power of a pocket calculator.

            The moon is beyond us.

            They made a movie about them.

          • MrMangoOnMyShoulder August 19, 2022 at 4:26 pm #

            Alzaebo – I might suggest that the fact that we put on such a good show and have stuck to it for 53 years is pretty note-worthy and impressive in its own right…so we’ve still got our national swagger regardless of the truth.

            But even in 1969, about one-third of the country (our own country!) thought it was BS. But decades of endlessly bolstering the official story have made it “real”.

            Not true.
            If you go to the pages where they are uploaded, you will see there are plenty of bad fotos, the vast majority are terrible.

          So, although Tonkin Gulf is now considered to have been a FF, to me it looks like a different animal from the series of domestic terrorism ops since, IMO, the assassination of JFK (and of RFK, to maintain secrecy re the JFK assassination).

          • Paula D August 20, 2022 at 10:13 am #

            Tonkin Gulf was a pure lie, completely invented out of nothing.
            So yeah, different than the domestic attacks they blame on “terrorists” or the Deep State assassinations they blame on “lone nuts”.

      The AMA was found in 1847 which is exactly 100 years before the CIA another organization founded to control you.

      Claiming allopathic medicine as the only medicine was a plan. Did you know that before the turn of the 20th century there were more than100 major hospitals that were homeopathic based? There were 22 homeopathic medical schools and over 1000+ homeopathic pharmacies.

      The AMA is like a mafia so that is all gone.

      The “controllers” needed to elevate sickness for control. Simple. So yeah, “medicine” of the “modern” world will not get any better but it was never good. You just never knew the difference.

      I think a controlled collapse is part of the plan.

          Those huge Pratt Whitney choppers burn 650-850 per hour. Had to refuel after every drop. Completely insane…fuel shortage? Total bs
          Controllers weather apparatus? Probably.
          So FEMA is on site and telling people to put in underground conduit and such, with plans and permits to restore power. Total bureaucratic meltdown…

          Those who put them up decided that it was time (in the famous words of Larry Silverstein) “to pull them”. Within one day of the initial explosion the whole site was leveled and the debris removed. “For safety reasons” , of course. Who has all that heavy equipment rented and ready to move to Podunk, Georgia on a moment’s notice? Who can wipe clean a crime scene ( oh, like with a cloth) before law enforcement can do any investigation?

        • JohnAZ August 19, 2022 at 1:31 pm #

          I want to counter the 500000000 idea by anyone.

          It takes a certain level of man power and skills to make things operate, whether agriculture or computer chips.

          Our population has constantly increased because new ideas create new industries which require new people.

          Dropping the number suddenly that far will destroy the tech base that keeps the species rolling.

          Return to the Dark Ages, without the church to keep order

          Or extinction.

          Also, the amount of available resources has always given the human race the ability to make comebacks,

          Not now.

          What percentage of a nation, say France, are required to man nuclear plants?

          Now, knock world population down to 500000000, how many nuke folks are left and how many nuke plants can be manned, even assuming the right ones survive.

          We need to level off population then slowly let it decline. Unfortunately, falling off a cliff is more likely due to resource limitations.

    I don’t think we allowed it to happen as the airways were flooded with scare tactics and the CDC still had credibility. We were told this was a virus no one knew much about and, still at that point, we trusted the information we were given. What choice did people actually have at that point?

    By spring of 2020 it was coming more in focus that this was overblown and all the restrictions were arbitrary at best. And a few dissenting voices were getting through but were quickly discredited and silenced. When the information the actual death toll was <1% and they were the old and sick, that's when it became clear to me this was about control, not a lethal virus.

    I'm now convinced the fake pandemic was only Act I to see how far they could go, how much resistance there was and how quickly it could be silenced. Act II is the manufactured hysteria over climate change and carbon credits will be introduced — in fact, they already are testing the water.

    • thirdcoastlegend August 19, 2022 at 10:20 am #

      People seem to be noticing the worldwide drought, but they aren’t hysterical about it.

      I can’t decide if the drought is manmade or merely unfortunate timing. I just don’t see enough solid evidence to support the first case.

      • Rodster August 19, 2022 at 10:27 am #

        “People seem to be noticing the worldwide drought, but they aren’t hysterical about it.”

        And they should be, because today’s drought affects next years food supply. Michael Synder from the website economiccollapseblog-dot-com has been writing extensively about the global drought.

        Perhaps the Elite are somehow fu*king with the weather as Iran claims the US has been doing to them? Perhaps Dane Wigington from geoengineeeringwatch .org might be onto to something that governments have been engaged in weather warfare?

            Re cooler climate, as evaporative moisture passes over the Poles, it freezes and falls, adding to the ice sheet. Less moisture for rain, so the lands begin to dry up.

            Welp, adding 20 million immigrantes to an infrastructure based on 22 million Californians doesn’t help either.

            Anybody else ever read Paolo Bacigalupi’s ‘The Water Knife’?

      What is becoming more credible each day is the notion that our own agencies are at the epicenter of this COVID sicheeation we find ourselves in.

      To bring the kind of justice Mr. Kunstler envisions to fruition will require a revolution. Only the complete, public repudiation of the Obama shadow regime, and the Biden puppet regime, and the Clintonistas can coalesce our collective minds on reality.

      I don’t think ‘merica will be doing that. Those agencies are NOT going to allow that.

      Last chance was 2020. The message that, “to be an election denier is to be domestic threat,” is loud and clear. The message that, “to donate to anti-regime-causes, is to be audited – under duress – by the IRS,” is loud and clear.

      I remember drawing a comment from our host in the run up to the Presidential debates, when I posted that I wanted to see Trump draw and quarter Biden on the stage. Maybe I said, “eviscerate,” can’t remember, but it seemed to move him to comment. (can’t remember that either…)

      This is why…

          • Islander August 19, 2022 at 6:01 pm #

            No, here I think “born” is correct. Because the reference is to birth. Generally “born” is used in the passive (he was born).

            Use “borne” as a past participle for the verb “to bear” when the sense is carrying something, not giving birth.

            E.g.,
            airborne.
            costs borne by the community

      This is the kind of pathetic response that drives me to distraction. People who slavishly do not question authority are clearly oblivious to the repeated and well documented history of government.

            “Long before the lies about covid the needed information to do that was right in front of us all.”

            No actually, it wasn’t.

            The lockdown began mid-March, 2020 and was supposed to last only three weeks. Trump tried to stop them from turning this into the longterm social control experience that happened and wanted to open the economy on June 1st.

            By that time, it was right in front of us all but only those in power could defy it successfully. DeSantis kept the schools open, Abbot tried to open all in Texas but individual mayors thwarted him (Austin for one). If you needed to fly anywhere, good luck getting on a plane without a mask.

            You forget most people have no medical training or the ability to interpret what they’re told by the corrupt media. As time went on, more responsibility can be placed with individual judgement but even then, it’s an uphill battle against propaganda.

          • Islander August 19, 2022 at 6:05 pm #

            “even then, it’s an uphill battle against propaganda.”

            Well, I guess some of us read more and are more discerning than others. Because they questioned from the beginning, or very near the beginning, of the operation. Too many things were not parsing. Then, they proactively searched for more info.

            At the very least, the precautionary principle should have governed the thinking of every thinking person.

    • Sean Coleman August 19, 2022 at 2:46 pm #

      I did not believe a word of it from the beginning, but I already knew the history of (some of) these false alarms from reading Booker and North’s Scared To Death, which inlcuded mad cow disease , lead in petrol, lead in computers, asbestos, listeria and similar food poisonings in Britain, Y2K and global warming.

      It did not include the swine flu outbreak of 2010. I nearly called off a holiday to Spain over that. It was in the media (Sky News) but did not spread to the public. I was more assiduous in following the news than they were, apparently. We went and when we returned it was as if nothing happened and I learnt something from it.

      There was a journalist called Daan De Wit on the Dutch Cafe Weltschmerz channel in 2020 and he had investigated the swine flu scam (we know it was a scam from Dr Wolfgan Wodarg, who was commissioned by the European Assembly (or what.ev.er they call it) to investigate it and he reported that the official statistics were completely out of touch with reality – but I only heard this in the spring of 2020). De Wit (or Witte) wrote a successful book about the swine flu.

      The funny thing is that De Wit admitted on Cafe Weltschmerz in about May 2020 that he had allowed himself to get carried away by the Covid story, for a couple of weeks.

      And in Britain, following Christopher Booker’s death in 2019, his co-author Richard North was the best place authority onf health scares and fantasies. I looked him up on the internet to see what he had to say and he had swallowed it, hook, line and sinker. I remember one phrase he wrote: “But when it comes to my family and me…” (Booker would never have fallen for it. Remember, he wrote the astonishing chronicle of the Swinging Sixties, The Neophiliacs, when he was just 29, in 1969, and his book is recommended by Hitchens for those who wish to understand that decade – he used a 5-stage ‘fantasy cycle’, of his owen devising I would say.)

      I listened to Booker’s nephew at the time (he has a financial podcast) and he said that North would ask him, “Now, who is the expert in public health here, you or me?”

      Now ,my main point is that despite knowing about these things and my wider point about collective fantasy (I have been banging that drum here, on and off, for five years and more) I still paused for a day or two just to make sure.

      We need to get to a position where none of these narratives is entertained by anyone for so much as a second. Any narrative whatsoever which carries the tell-tale signs: breathless excitement, exaggeration, horror, fools in white coats calling them scientists, dopey journalists quoting ‘statistics’, doomsday predictions, novel diseases or microbes with strange names (a point made by Booker and North), familiar public figures suddenly revealed as monsters, anything at all about ‘refugees.’, Dodgy looking ‘victims’ or ‘patients’ telling their stories. It should be an automatic reflex to dismiss all of these.

      • SW August 19, 2022 at 3:39 pm #

        @ Sean — all good points and I agree with you. The problem is, all most people ever hear are narratives with all of those tell-tale signs but
        with all the lies told about covid, it will be harder to get the next narrative about any virus going.

        But the ground has been readied for the climate change narrative. My children believe every word of it, no matter how apocalyptic or unreasonable it sounds. However — neither has had to do without a/c or heat to “save the planet” yet so we’ll see if they’re willing to examine the evidence more closely when that happens.

      • Islander August 19, 2022 at 6:08 pm #

    Perhaps we should call this Moneypox because now the Gov’t err I mean crime syndicate along with the medical establishment wants people to get vaxxed and boosted for Moneypox which 99.5% effects the gay community.

    Do you trust that the season’s flu vaccine is unadalterated?

      I’d already had the 2019 one (NHS has traditionally offered it free to 65s and over, plus under-5s), but I didn’t take it in 2020 and won’t be taking it again. Or any other, not even shingles.

      Also, Mike Yeadon consulted the Cochrane Review literature and found, to his surprise, that they’re actually useless.

      My default assumption now is that any ‘vaccine’ may be ‘enhanced’. And they’re definitely moving over to the mRNA platform wherever they can, which inevitably involves coronary risks because of the lipid nano-particles, as far as I understand.

        That ‘(in’ on the first line isn’t meant to be there, sorry.

        My work pushed the flu shot like crazy, so I used to check each year at the CDC to see how the last year’s shot had done.
        There was never a time they claimed it was more than 50% effective. The lowest was one year when it was 9%, as I recall.

        But then, after they presented the data from the year before, they always had to finish with their mantra (just like with the GMO product today) “But be sure to get this year’s flu vaccine”.

        One of the things that annoy me greatly about the GMO resisters is that they continually make the claim “The flu kills more people than covid”.

        No, it doesn’t. The statistics for flu deaths have been exaggerated for years, in order to push the vaccine.

        Same as now.

    • D from OR August 19, 2022 at 11:39 am #

      Vague distrust. Wow. Yeah, those other flu vaccines you got were based on the previous year’s flu so only weren’t really effective. It’s a way to make money which is the entire motivation of modern medicine.

      If you simply focused on your health through diet, vitamins, exercise and rest you won’t need a flu shot. Being healthy is a thing.

      Me too but with all that has happened I decided about 6 months ago that I will not be getting the ‘flew’ or any other vaxx shot EVER. My biggest prahlem is the load of shit I’ll have to take from my wife. Maybe I’ll just lie and say “yeah, I got the shot at Rite Aid this afternoon.”

          My husband did the opposite. To avoid the earache he got the booster without telling me, after I’d made him promise to let me know so that I could stay away from him.

          When I found out I was so livid that I tore up the Will he’d made mostly in my favour and I haven’t taken any money from him as a contribution to paying the bills since last December. When I get pissed off I get pissed off, even when it means shooting myself in the foot. He’s currently intestate, a word which makes me laugh because it sounds as if someone has gone for his balls.

      elysian – Do you trust that the season’s flu vaccine is unadalterated?

      a-Hell no.

      And it might be “fine”. But scientists and doctors have ruined their own vaunted status as the bringers of truth in the last few years, by changing their stance on so many things that had been agreed-upon for many decades…so I don’t think a lot of people will ever ever trust that a vaccine is what it says it is anymore. Including me.

      That said, if I step on a rusty nail, I’ll go re-up my tetanus shot. I think.

      Forget the flu shot, if you ask me.

      Let’s be honest – women sell out quicker than men, and for less money. Why do you think the Black community went downhill so fast in the 1960s??? They could not drop their britches fast enough for the welfare benefits, and now nearly 80% of black kids are born to single moms. Been that way for decades now, and we don’t have an epidemic of gun violence – we have an epidemic of young black boys/men violence.

      And believe it or not, I read where one black chief of police out west somewhere could not believe the young age of some of the black perps in a beating or killing out there – like 11 and 13 IIRC. I am like, “Whoa dude, where have you been???” There are repeat 13 year old black car jackers out there.

  13. Night Owl August 19, 2022 at 10:09 am #

    Good entry this week. Lots of truth, but IMO, still one more step needs to be taken:

    There is no Covid-19. It has never been isolated (only “in silico,” meaning a computer mock-up), and there is no hard data showing any uniquely deadly resp. virus existed.

    There is also still no test for “Covid-19.”

    The German Corona-Ausschuss, covered this again today in an interview with a whistleblower. Dr. and ex-Pfizer VP Mike Yeadon has also said the same (and is referenced here again)

    https://odysee.com/@Corona-Investigative-Committee:5/s118en:3

    Truth is truth.

    • John K August 19, 2022 at 10:18 am #

      I think you’re referring to SARS-CoV-2, the alleged virus, rather than Covid-19, the disease diagnosis. But the whole “virus vs. no virus” debate is a red herring that only serves to sap momentum from the side pushing for an end to tyranny.

      Virus or no, the pathology of the spike protein has been well established, which is why so many doctors have been shouting from the rooftops about effective treatments only to be censored and have their licenses threatened. I’ve had Covid myself. It was not a cold and it was not the flu, and thankfully it was brief, but the symptoms were bizarre and creepy. Vaccination isn’t the answer, but neither is denying any of this exists at all.

      • Night Owl August 19, 2022 at 10:38 am #

        Feel free to tell us how you were diagnosed with “Covid-19.”

        There is no test for it. No test exists.

        You think you had it because it “felt different”; the repetition of these words is nothing more than a social phenomenon at this point, reinforced by thousands of hours of McMedia brainwashing.

        • John K August 19, 2022 at 10:48 am #

          It went through our entire family, one after the other. I almost never get sick and caught it quite easily. Lost my sense of smell despite ZERO nasal congestion, terrible “cotton mouth” for two days, and other strangeness. My sister still hasn’t recovered her sense of smell nine months later. All coincidental?

          You are correct that PCR is useless and not fit for purpose. PCR’s inventor said as much, as did the consortium of scientists who demolished the Corman-Drosten paper upon which the test design is based.

          Tell Dr. Pierre Kory, Dr. Peter McCullough, or any of the the other truth-telling treatment doctors that no Covid exists. They would be happy to enlighten you to the contrary, even if they have also come out against the vaccines. The truth is more nuanced than you wish to acknowledge, it would seem.

          • Night Owl August 19, 2022 at 2:18 pm #

            Once again, explain to us how you know you had “Covid-19.”

            You can’t.

            As for the name-dropping, I have followed this since the first CCP stuntman flopped around on the ground like a ragdoll on the Chinese state media reels.

            There is no isloate. There is no test.

        • Disaffected August 19, 2022 at 10:48 am #

          The power of suggestion is strong in the herd. I now know many people personally who tested positive and reported no symptoms whatsoever and a few others who mouthed the widely advertised complete loss of taste and smell only. Imagine that! That’s one magic virus!

          • JohnAZ August 19, 2022 at 11:14 am #

            Have they ever isolated a virus, any virus?

            Viruses cannot live outside of a living media. Most of pictures of Covid taken were on or in cells. The tests showing DNA modification were run on liver cells.

            So, some invisible force is causing all the respiratory, cardiac, and muscle illnesses that have been blamed on “viruses”.

            BTW, one thing that has never been raised is how susceptible are we as a species to environmental damage, both living and non-living, Are we just weaker? Are the sculpting patterns of vaccines creating a narrow band or resistance in human immunity, allowing other bugs to invade easier. Is that why Covid took over so fast?

            BTW2, Yours truly raised the injection blood escape strawman a year ago or more. In nursing school, you learned that IM injection need to be drawn back to make sure there was no blood indicating the shot was in a blood vessel. I could not believe that the vaxx, with its assembly line approach being given, stayed in the muscle across the public. A second data point noted is the prevalence of athletes that have been affected. Hmmm, the muscle tissue of athletes have more blood vasculature.

            IMHO, the injection of mRNA should be contra indicated for everyone. The variability of the injection makes the vaxx too dangerous. The tech model of MRNA is bogus.

        • MaryQueen August 19, 2022 at 2:23 pm #

          Yep. Their minds were pre-programmed with “it feels different” as if every illness one ever has doesn’t feel “different” than one you’ve had before.

          Also people feel somewhat ‘special’ for having had it.

          I do think they accompanied the hoax with bioweapons though, because I’m not sure what else explains large populations all getting bizarre symptoms and illnesses at the same time. I’m thinking poisoning, like the CIA did when they sprayed SF with pathogens in 1957.

          • Disaffected August 19, 2022 at 3:40 pm #

        Seconded JK – agree with everything you said. Unvaxxed, and still refuse, but had COVID (whatever it is, and it is something), for 17 days straight, back in July 2021.

        In perfect health, but lost 25 lbs., debilitating fatigue, unbreakable fever, BP off the charts & start of respiratory distress. Took Ivermectin – yep, vet grade & I’m here to tell the story.

        Still have lingering, “serviceable” fatigue, high(er) BP, no taste or smell & shortness of breath. Probably @ 90-95%.

        • Rhett Dawson August 19, 2022 at 11:27 am #

          My GF (unjabbed) had it in Feb. 2022. She is always vibrant and healthy but the COVIDs completely knocked her on her ass for 3 weeks. It most definitely is something. It exists.

        • Not_GeorgeT August 19, 2022 at 12:10 pm #

          There is ‘something’. Adult children have had an illness which was debilitating for a couple of them x2 weeks or so. Yet another has been ill with ‘something’ having similar s/s but recovered in a few days.

          Regardless, HCQ or Ivermectin in combination with zinc and early treatment have had documented success. The documented success has been suppressed but not disappeared.

          The history of Ivermectin and its precursors is an interesting journey. Started as a veterinary medicine. The developer(s) raised the question would it generally work in mammals beyond horses and cattle, which brought it to humans and the treatment of river blindness.

          • Islander August 19, 2022 at 1:26 pm #

            It was isolated from a single bacterium found in a Japanese swamp, or something.

            Just a penicillin was isolated from a single fungus found by a lab worker, Mary Something.

            As for vet medicine being fine-tuned and tweaked for humans, and vice versa—that is quite standard.

            Bourla, of Pfizer, was the one who ‘pivoted” the company from vet meds to human meds. Maybe he knew all the animals were going to end up dead before all the humans . . .

          • Islander August 19, 2022 at 6:16 pm #

            Re “It was isolated from a single bacterium found in a Japanese swamp, or something. ”

            “it” refers to the bacterium that became the basis of Ivermectin.

            From Wikipedia:
            “The avermectin family of compounds was discovered by Satoshi ?mura of Kitasato University and William Campbell of Merck.[7] In 1970, ?mura isolated a strain of Streptomyces avermitilis from woodland soil near a golf course along the south east coast of Honshu, Japan.[7] ?mura sent the bacteria to William Campbell, who showed that the bacterial culture could cure mice infected with the roundworm Heligmosomoides polygyrus. . . .”

      I always thought the invention of the catchy handi-term “covid” was a bit ropy.

      Which says nothing about the actual disease.

      I had it (per a swab test), and it felt like flu.
      Very fatiguing.
      But not as bad as the flu I had in 2017.

      It is my benchmark. I hadn’t been sick since then.

      Sounds kind of like a song!

    “Just say no!” should be the catch phrase for everyone visiting their local doctor (aka, shyster) this fall when offered the flu vax or any other. Then scoff loudly when they follow that up with whatever pressure they can still muster. And do it in front of others at every chance you get too.

        • JohnAZ August 19, 2022 at 11:27 am #

          Remember though that there is still a risk to risk decision to be made between the now known risk of the vaxx and getting the shot to avoid getting the long term or heavy crud. The vaxx no longer works on variants to stop the infections. I wonder if the supposed lesser effect of later infections after vaxxing is being made up. Is it the vaxx, or the variant having less effect?

          I think it is disgusting that the only real information about Covid that JHK has presented here is preliminary, in strawman form, two years after the crud showed up. The government has been very successful in blocking any real research and we still do not understand this bug at all.

          • Bob Polecat August 19, 2022 at 11:42 am #

            From Wikipedia:

            A straw man (sometimes written as strawman) is a form of argument and an informal fallacy of having the impression of refuting an argument, whereas the real subject of the argument was not addressed or refuted, but instead replaced with a false one.[1] One who engages in this fallacy is said to be “attacking a straw man”.

            The typical straw man argument creates the illusion of having refuted or defeated an opponent’s proposition through the covert replacement of it with a different proposition (i.e., “stand up a straw man”) and the subsequent refutation of that false argument (“knock down a straw man”) instead of the opponent’s proposition.[2][3] Straw man arguments have been used throughout history in polemical debate, particularly regarding highly charged emotional subjects.[4]

        The existence, or not, of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is immaterial to the issue of whether or not to get any vaccines.

        Because whether that virus exists or not, it has been demonstrated that the whole “vaccine” enterprise is corrupt to its core.

    A blowtorch of a post today. Great summary of the shit storm.

    All the official actors and players are of course criminal, if not downright demonic, but what may chafe me even more is the dumbed-down majority of the population whose blindness “lets them get away with their bullshit.” Because if a critical mass of fully awake people put their foot down and said “enough,” this would all be over with tomorrow.

    Instead, the sleepwalking horde prefers to help build their own prison cell. That’s easy, with so much concrete between their ears. Jim asks, “What will it take to stop them now?” The answer is whatever it takes to wake up our neighbors before the trap snaps shut on us all.

      I’ve been doing it for a while. After 9-11 I took one plane trip and then said Never Again.
      Switched to Amtrak, and then Amtrak started asking for IDs.
      So I did the old “Gosh, where is my ID? I know it’s here someplace”, showing down the flow of riders, combined with “Why do I need to show you my driver’s license? I’m not driving.”
      I assume others did the same, because they quit asking after a few months.
      I always use cash.
      I didn’t get a cellphone for a long time, then caved. My bad.
      I got fired for refusing the flu shot. That was before covid, but I had lunch with my former co-workers a few months ago and pointed out that I was ahead of my time, and they said sadly “Yes, you were.” They didn’t want the GMO shot, but they wanted to keep their jobs.

        Is it a “smart” phone, or just a dumb flip phone?
        I have the latter.
        It costs me all of about $5/month.
        I am still resisting . . .

        • Paula D August 19, 2022 at 8:26 pm #

          I got a flip phone when I first caved. It was fine for a while. One time I dropped it in a parking lot and when I went back to look for it no one had stolen it. Can’t beat that!
          But then it quit working so I went to the phone store to get another one, but they no longer made the kind with a keyboard with separate letters.
          I only use it to text, so I didn’t want to deal with the thing where you have to hit the ABC button 3 times for a C, then the DEF button twice to get an E, and so on. Pain in the butt, so I got a smart phone.
          I use it to text, but now I can check the weather, identify plants and identify bird songs, so it’s cool.

    I’ll have to change my user name to plain ‘Dan’, since Mary lost her fucking mind about 6 years ago. She’s fully vaxed and divorcing the ‘crazy’,unvaxed ‘Dan’. I’ve got to admit, it’s been difficult to live with a rabid, scolding, ‘smartest person on the planet’, with no subjects with which to carry on a civil, intelligent conversation for this long. I can’t wait to see her line up for her next booster. I’ll be at home with my dogs & my gardens cheering her on, like the guy in the boat, “Stroke, stroke, stroke!!”

      Mary will try to come back home after she has had a good dose of the Real World. Unless she has plenty of money and can still afford to pay the rent somewhere. I tell that to my male divorce clients. I tell them that their wife deciding to get a divorce is a good thing, sent from God, because they were either too stupid or too noble to dump the old/young biddy years ago. It is like God making someone who is about to shoot you turn their gun on themselves. Most men do great after a divorce, while most women go downhill quickly once they blow thru the settlement money.

    • Rhett Dawson August 19, 2022 at 11:55 am #

      Good luck to you, Dan.

      Having been through 7 years of complete Hell while crooked lawyers extort my once successful life’s work and call me names while they drive Porsches and Escalades and cruise the Mediterranean on my money, my advice to you is as follows:

      Represent yourself. Retaining a divorce lawyer is giving them carte blanche to siphon off everything that you’ve built in your entire life. Bar members work for each other in their crooked extortion racket. They do not work for you or your best interests.

      Note: This is my experience in Ontario Family Law. It may be different in your jurisdiction … but I doubt it.

      I’m sure there is much more about the situation that you haven’t shared.

      You did not mention children. They are the ones who suffer from a divorce, often the most acutely.

      You might also want to err on the side of caution about what Mary prepares you to drink, as there has been discussion about oral mRNA surprise cocktails. She would only give it to you “…for your own good”, since you “…obviously do not appreciate the danger”.

      • DanandMary August 19, 2022 at 5:14 pm #

        Thanks but all’s good. This is my 3rd rodeo. She’s barren, a dog collector with her own software business that’s doing very well. She’s 60 & I’m 62. We live in separate houses on a large property. What was truly priceless though, was the look on her face when she found out that she’ll be paying me alimony & living expenses for many years to come. I love Feminism! Equal rights baby!

        • Anthea August 21, 2022 at 6:17 pm #

          The fact that she will be paying you alimony and living expenses indicates that she was the higher earner (or perhaps the only earner?) in the household. That’s the way the law works in some states, at least.

          The non-working spouse, normally the stay-at-home mom and housewife, is awarded alimony because she has foregone career opportunities, as well as opportunities to build a retirement and make investments and acquire assets in her name alone–usually over a period of many years.

          The sister of one of my friends found herself threatened with providing alimony and half of her retirement to the husband she was divorcing.

          She and her husband were in their sixties when they married. He was already retired, and she was nearing retirement. They both worked for the same company, which had generous retirement benefits. As soon as hubby retired, he began filling his idle hours with compulsive gambling. After a year or two, my friend’s sister found that he was either unwilling or unable to contribute to living expenses–was essentially living off of her income alone.

          She had a friend in the company’s department that took care of employee retirement funds, and she discovered that hubby’s retirement fund was gone. Kaput. He had literally gambled away his entire retirement. Though they had only been married for a year or so, in the divorce, hubby tried to get half of all her premarital assets and half of her retirement.

          You situation suggests that you were chronically unemployed, perhaps explaining why your wife was a scold.

    @ Rhett

    Just want to close out an item of discussion from yesterday.

    You may have missed my response to your Aug 18 /2 3:26 pm post concerning ‘hard returns.’ My reply (at 5:22 pm) was as follows:

    “No, hard returns (i.e. pressing the Enter key) did not increase the character count however “soft returns” (Shift + Enter) did add to the character count. This fact still does not account for me getting a 32 character count when I copy and paste the sentence from the blog into OOW.

    Therefore the 32 character count is still a mystery.

    Note: I never knew there was such a thing as a “soft return” until I ran into the term when googling a definition of hard return.”

      Many people here seemed to be very concerned about my time and how I spend it.

      1) This morning, I will stop-watch time how long it takes me to:

      Data-pull from CFN thread on Mac
      Create TXT file on Mac
      Copy to USB drive

      Copy from USB drive to old Windows XP PC
      Import TXT into MS-Excel 2003
      Blank & update my recently built “calcer” spreadsheets
      Create publishable TXT files
      Copy them to USB drive

      Copy them from USB drive to Windows 10 laptop
      Publish on CFN

      My estimate is 15 minutes

    Always the complaining, always pointing blame towards fellow ‘citizens’, always ignoring the big truth …

    Over and over I say, invert, invert, invert. Take the pov of a thinker (after all, everyone here is fully capable) and consider overshoot, depletion and degradation.

    Our entire existence is based on accessing 200 million years of stored solar energy. It really is just that simple; no surplus, no 8 billion people.

    So … what would you do? Exactly, you would do exactly what has occurred, imposing controls, planting poison, substituting IQ 85-90 for 100-105, etc

    It’s all perfectly logical if you just step back and consider reality. Now, does that mean you accept the situation? Certainly not, but in order to oppose, you have to understand what you’re fighting against.

      @ mitchellc:

      I’m not sure I see the need on the part of the PTB to commit genocide due to resource depletion–most particularly energy constraints. Population overshoot is nothing new in nature, and, as leads inevitably to population die-off, it tends to take care of itself.

      If I were among the PTB, I would undoubtedly take an interest in making sure that the earth’s resources, including energy, were in “our” control.

      I can see how the PTB would not want the resource-rich areas of the earth to be crawling with huge human populations. Africa is one example: lots of wealth there, but it’s full to overflowing with a difficult-to-control population, which is also difficult to exploit for the purpose of labor. There is a video out there about how the Chinese can’t get the native Africans to perform any useful work. They are both lazy and incompetent. Historically, some of the colonial powers were able to get some work out of the native Africans, at least in some parts of Africa, but I think they relied on inhumane methods.

      So I can see why they might want to depopulate Africa. India is another continent that is rich in resources but WAY overcrowded.

      I can see why the PTB would want to control Russia and Ukraine, as they are resource-rich (but also thinly populated).

      The only possible objective of the PTB that does seem reasonable to me is that they want most of the earth returned to its natural state–that is, its natural state sans humans. (Humans are, after all, a part of nature.) I suppose they think the earth would be prettier and more enjoyable (for them) that way. And, in many parts of the world, very high human populations have certainly had a blighting effect.

      Maybe the earth has just gotten too messy for them. Perhaps they would like most of the world to be a big nature preserve–while at the same time retaining control of energy reserves, so they could travel to all its pristine beaches, primeval forests, and vast plains with thundering herds of bison, or eland (or whatever).

      • spaingaroo August 22, 2022 at 9:37 am #

        I think the problem with getting useful work out of various peoples of the earth is the idea that you can do so without paying them for it.

    RUSHED TO MARKET describes for sure the vaccine development.

    How can a giant pharma company develop anything close to safe or effective new products in only 6 months when it takes them 6 months just to get new business cards printed for a new employee?

    When a maker of oil filter paper wants to make a minor change to their product, GM, Ford, Toyota et al require at least 2 years of testing before they will ever try it out in their production cars.

    This is why my family rejected the vaccine early on.

    • MaryQueen August 19, 2022 at 2:38 pm #

      Real vaccines take 5-10 years MINIMUM to deploy. I have a close friend who runs pharmaceutical trials for 25 years. She told me this.

      So we both knew right away that the ‘vaccines’ were garbage.

      • Disaffected August 19, 2022 at 3:31 pm #

        Oh but this was an EMERGENCY and a PANDEMIC don’t ya know, so they just suspended the usual rules of science and deployed them anyway.

        What they probably didn’t say, is that the vaccines (aka “the cures”) had been on the shelves for years, just waiting for “the virus” (aka “the disease”) to be deployed first.

        A limited selective deployment of some kind of bio-warfare toxin developed specifically for the purpose at various places around the globe and a full court fear propaganda press later, and voila! Here we are!

        • MaryQueen August 19, 2022 at 8:07 pm #

          As another friend said, you can’t speed up a pharma trial (vaccine) any more than you can a pregnancy. It takes 9 months no matter what. They tried to say that since their trial was so HUGE it would go faster. Nope. Again, like a pregnancy. In fact, the huger the trial the longer it will take.

      At $1,000/second it’s been a tidy cash flow. I’d need to revisit the patent numbers, a small amount of research off-mainstream will yield them.

      Saline is cheap. Some have offered there were batches filled with it.

    I agree with Jim that a reckoning and accountability is coming for the perpetrators of these crimes. I am skeptical that the midterm elections will bring about the needed change. We continue to hunker down and prepare.

    What will be the tipping point?

    My doctor finally stopped pushing me about the jab, but now he is peddling Paxlovid. At least when I had Covid in January he gave me a steroid and some antibiotics to treat symptoms, so he’s not a complete idiot, though his idiotic partner has pressured him onto making everybody wear masks in the office. Patients only… vaxxed or not…. stupid.

    My boss’s doctor (whom he had such faith in before) told him to ride it out and go to the hospital when he couldn’t breathe anymore. I told him I am going to go through the phone book (is there still such a thing?) and find a GP that doesn’t require a mask to enter the office. He said that is a stupid way to pick a doctor.

    On the contrary, it is the best way to cull through the stupid ones and virtue signalers. Guarantees one who thinks for himself…

      “My doctor finally stopped pushing me about the jab, but now he is peddling Paxlovid. ” Not every doctor seems to be pushing Paxlovid. I have an 80 year old relative in an ECF. Many of her 10 or so co-residents recently turned + for COVID-19 and got mildly ill. All had been vaxxed & boosted months before this. Several had already contracted COVID-19 long before this outbreak. A nurse there slipped and told me NONE had been given Paxlovid by the medical staff there during this recent outbreak. All of them were candidates for Paxlovid according to current FDA guidelines. None died. AFAICT, none was hospitalized.

      • Night Owl August 19, 2022 at 3:56 pm #

          There are a number of possibilities.

          One of them is that covid is a handy way to get them out of the spotlight for a week or two. This can go on forever now.

          Another is to create sympathy for them: don’t kick a guy when he is down!

          Another one is to create a faux sense of solidarity with the great unwashed, their constituents—see, we are fallible humans, just like you!! That has the added advantage of reinforcing the message that covid is a thing, and can strike anyone at any time, kings and serfs altogether.

          Then there is the added reinforcement of normalizing and reinforcing belief in the meds given: Paxlovid or whatever.

          Lots of kabuki potential!!

      Saw two things this AM.

      One a poll saying the GOP has been caught by the Dems in head to head congressional voting. 41 to 41%

      That is bad enough, but number two was McConnell saying that the Dems would probably hold the Senate.

      I do not know about you, but this year is turning into a nightmare.

      Looking at the American public, my estimation of their intelligence is taking a giant step backwards.

      Uniparty, anyone?

      • Hereward the Woke August 20, 2022 at 6:24 pm #

        That and the likes of utter nutjobs like Marjorie Trailer Park Greene & Lauren Bobcat, along with now (as of yesterday) Dan Crenshaw, all shooting their mouths off in defence of the former President Fat Arse when they have zero defence to offer. They should be dying of embarrassment, but they are completely clueless and will continue to play to the Base.

        I’m still in two minds though, as to whether they actually believe what they’re saying or they’re just grifting you all.

    Re the Society of Actuaries:

    What percentage of actuaries are male?
    59.4% of Actuaries are Male, making them the more common sex in the occupation.

    Is actuary a male dominated field?
    The actuarial career path has remained consistently male dominated in the United States. In 1910, women made up just ten of the 286 actuaries in the country (Adams, 269).

    Why is the field dominated by men? Because women find it mind-numbingly Booor ringgg. Women are more interested in Hollywood fashion/gossip. Just my opinion/observation.

      I’ll tell my daughter, who works in corporate tax. She works for a big Danish shipping company (they contacted her- she didn’t contact them). She’s been working from Edinburgh and going over there once a month, but she eventually decided she really didn’t want to move to Copenhagen, as they wanted, and told them so. She assumed she’d be let go, but they obviously want to keep her enough to have accepted that she can stay where she is and just keep going over for catch-ups. As far as I know she doesn’t find it boring or not boring. She just sees it as work, which you have to do if you want a pay cheque.

      I don’t think she has any interest in Hollywood fashion or gossip, but the subject has never come up, so I wouldn’t know. I know she was one of only 20 percent of her cohort who passed all their accountancy exams first time, which I think is pretty good, since most of them went to private schools and she didn’t.

      But if the women you know are into Hollywood gossip and endless handbags, what can anyone say? My guess is that if men have that sort of wife, it’s because they chose that sort of wife.

      • Rhett Dawson August 19, 2022 at 1:20 pm #

        Billions of men have that sort of wife, Ms Alba, as that sort of woman makes up the majority of women (i.e. wife choices). Sad but True.

        After all, Hollywood gossip and handbags are massive industries on account of Supply & Demand.

        —–

        Your daughter has done very well by today’s standards and paradigm. Good for her! You must be very proud of her.

        It is probably not feasible but I am curious if your daughter is capable of data-pulling, -collating and -publishing the comment count (by poster) and character count (again, by poster) of a CFN thread.

        • GreenAlba August 19, 2022 at 1:57 pm #

          I’m not much into ‘pride’ regarding my daughter’s achievements. I think there are more important things about people than their work achievements, gratifying as those may be. People crowing about their intelligence just makes me wonder why they’re crowing about it. They didn’t do anything to deserve their good fortune in intelligence any more than they did with regard to their looks.

          A handbag does me well over 5 years. Sometimes ten. My mother wasn’t a career person but she had no interest in handbags either. She had one at a time and they weren’t even real leather because of the price. I don’t happen to know anyone who obsesses about handbags or Hollywood gossip. As I said on the previous thread, most of the women I’ve been friendly with turn up with the same handbag for years.

          • Rhett Dawson August 19, 2022 at 2:05 pm #

            1) I’d be proud if my daughter accomplishes what your daughter has accomplished.

            2) I believe that 70-something women in Scotland are much more practical than are under 50s in North America.

            I was sitting at a trolley station in San Jose and a woman came up to me and made fun of my fanny pack. ( I used a fanny pack for years because I wanted my hands free.)

            Anyway she showed me her purse. It was quite fancy. She bragged that her daughter had bought it for her when she got out of jail, as sort of a ‘welcome home’ present.

            I made appropriate admiration noises. Encouraged, she started bragging on her boyfriend. Although she was willing to have sex behind the dumpster again, he was high class enough to rent a motel room. Wow, such a catch!

            Anyway, she clearly looked down on me because of my money pouch choice. I’m pretty sure that she didn’t realize that I wasn’t impressed with her purse or boyfriend.

            Sometimes people don’t realize that bragging doesn’t have the impact they think it does.

            “I believe that 70-something women in Scotland are much more practical than are under 50s in North America.”

            I wasn’t any more interested in handbags when I was 30. The only difference then was that I couldn’t afford real leather ones either and now I can (until they bring in social credit anyway).

            ” I’d be proud if my daughter accomplishes what your daughter has accomplished.”

            I guess it comes down to what you mean by pride. She’s worked very hard and done well. I’m pleased she’s enjoyed the travelling and sporty stuff it has enabled her to do, and that she’s enjoying the lovely flat she’s ‘bought’ and is currently doing up.

            But I’m conscious that the higher they fly the harder they fall. She will not get to keep her flat. And she’s taken two covid jabs that she didn’t need and already has Danish and Norwegian digital IDs so will probably get a UK one when they appear and more jabs to keep them valid. Whereas if she’d said sorry, I’d rather be serving tables (which she was, temporarily, in her friend’s family’s business before the Danish job came up) than take either the jab or the digital ID, then I’d have been exceptionally proud.

            “I am curious if your daughter is capable of data-pulling […] etc.”

            Up until a year or two ago I had a wallet that was at least 20, maybe 25, years old. I carried it in my left back pocket. It had acquired just the shape and worn look you would expect after all those years.

            Wife bought me a NEW wallet and I said “I don’t WANT a new wallet… don’t NEED a new wallet.” “I hope you kept the receipt so you can get your money back.” But, no use arguing over something so trivial so I caved… moved all the plastic cards, license, etc. to the new wallet which sits in my back pocket like a thick lump. If I live long enough maybe it will acquire the old look and worn shape I prefer.

          Could you build a pocket door? Sweat in copper plumbing? Wire in an electrical circuit? Mud-and-tape drywall like a professional?

          My daughter can do all of the above–except possibly sweating in copper plumbing. (She has always used PEX.)

          I don’t know if she’s ever had occasion to do data-pulling, though perhaps she did some of that when she was employed as a scientist for a number of years. (She’s a “numbers” person with an aptitude for mathematics.)

        Alba, ask your daughter if she thinks of herself (being a woman doing the kind of work she does) as one of a small minority or as actually quite common.

        Speaking of handbags……… leaf through any magazine that contains clothing and fashion advertising. Each model will be holding a handbag (usually a very high-end one) as if it is the most important thing in the world. With men, a comparable phenomenon (if one actually exists) might involve watches. Peter wears a Rolex at all times. I snuck a glance at it last night at dinner and, I shit you not, it was off by 5 hrs and 13 mins.

        And speaking of Hollywood gossip and such, my wife gets a bunch of magazines for free (why for free is a story not worth telling) among which are People and Us mags. After she has leafed thru them (learning the latest on Kim and Pete [I think that’s his name]) she saves them in a stack near our front door to give to her pal Gail who is a semi-orthodox Jew.

        • Anthea August 20, 2022 at 9:43 am #

          I don’t know even one woman who reads fashion magazines or Hollywood gossip rags. In fact, I have never seen anyone purchase such a magazine in the check-out line at the grocery store.

          Owning a nice handbag (or two) is kind of like owning some good shoes. Sometimes you have to go somewhere where you must make a good appearance. If you were a man, you would probably wear your best shoes and a suit that was not an obviously cheap suit. Your other accessories would be suitable for the occasion.

          But I think maybe I’m overlooking something in saying this; namely, it is probably your wife who makes sure you don’t go out looking like a bum, or like Whizzo the clown.

          I rarely go places where appearances are important, these days. Some people do and some people don’t. And most husbands would not want their wives showing up at the company’s Christmas party with a shabby handbag–or wearing an unflattering and out-of-fashion dress and shoes, with hair that was poorly styled and long overdue for a touch-up, and dime-store perfume and makeup.

          It’s the same with your kids’ school clothes. The kids should be reasonably well turned-out. They should have something approriate for the prom or other school functions.

          Women’s interest in these matters is usually (or rather, almost always) largely practical. It is best not to be totally oblivious to fashions.

            Oh puleeze, Ant. I googled up these tidbits:

            People Magazine readership was 46.6 million in 2009, the largest of any American mag. It dropped to second place in 2018 at 35.9 million.

            Further:

            Feb 15, 2016 — 70% of the readership of People Magazine are women. The most common age demographic is between the ages of 16-45.

            Now, I suppose you will complain that the demographic shows that only stupid YOUNG women read People.

          The two combatants make peace thru their mutual hatred of men. This is how women bond – and not just in a general sense as above. Individual women bond with each other by trashing their boyfriends and/or husbands.

          I genuinely take offense at this comment (at least as far as I go, Jarek and OG can speak for themselves). I don’t feel anything I’ve written is, or should be taken as, misogynistic.

          What I have tried to point out is that there is a vast difference between men and women that goes way beyond “plumbing.” The differences are related to “plumbing” but are not JUST “plumbing.”

    Thinking out loud here …….

    “We allowed this to happen.”

    Yes, but the big question for me is how and why? Did it start with the work of Edward Bernays, the world of advertising researching the effects of subliminal messaging back in the 20th century?, Was it the seemingly infinite budget provided to the military, much of which went into research in the psychology of torture, persuasion, and mind control?
    Was it the widespread use of fluoride in drinking water, the same chemical used in concentration camps to induce compliance?
    Was it research into the effects of hormones on behavior? – and lax regulations allowing estrogen mimics and endocrine disruptors into our food supply, via pesticides and plastics, resulting in a feminization of males, and a proliferation of more compliant, more agreeable, more controllable population?

    At this point, what weapons could we use to save ourselves? TPTB would use directed energy weapons against any pitchfork brigade.
    I keep coming back to the hopium of an EMF strike or a massive solar flare clearing and leveling the playing field.

    JK, you keep forgetting about the MILLIONS of illegal invaders coming into our country. You may live way up in New York and think you’re immune to this problem…but nobody is. Millions upon millions of useless eaters with no skills (but can vote!) will simply overwhelm our roads, our hospitals, our schools, and give NOTHING in return. It’s part of the plan to collapse the entitlement plan as they will get them and the legal citizens get nothing. This is a sabotage effort by the establishment, pure and simple. And we’re doing nothing. Keeping hoping a political “savior” fixes things – they won’t.

    • Rhett Dawson August 19, 2022 at 12:55 pm #

      • Jarek August 19, 2022 at 1:28 pm #

        Dyers is correct in his designation and TPTB are wrong.

        • Rhett Dawson August 19, 2022 at 1:58 pm #

          Correct. All people are God’s children. There are no useless eaters.

            OG, I agree with you on the vast majority of things.

            Oh no, not on this one.

            Worthless eaters are a great description. If they had any sense, the Dems and RINOs would never let them in as potential socialists.

            They will destroy this country, they are in process of doing so. The city mayors are right in this, they will destroy their budgets. If NYC and DC cannot handle these immigrants, how are the poorer states in the SW going to handle the onslaught.

            Abbott and Ducey are right on with their activity. If the mayors want the busing to stop, have them talk to Biden and Myorkas to stop the border.

            Maybe a good solution is to bus them to Calgary, or Toronto or just to the Canada line and dump them off. Trudeau would never put up with it.

            I was answering Jar’s question by sharing my opinion that all people are God’s children and, therefore, are not “useless eaters.”

          Dyer is basically right. Quit the nitpicking.

          What I find interesting is that there is a new theory, accepted without question by the woke left and others, that sovereign states have no right not power to determine who gets to enter their territory.
          There is no right of exclusion.
          Particularly in so-called first world countries.

          But of course sovereign nations to possess this right, and the power to enforce their choices. Countries are being shamed and emotionally blackmailed (boatloads of illegals launched across the Channel to inundate the shores of Great Britain) into denying that they have this right, and/or guilt-tripped if they exercise it (Hungary).

          We would never say that a property owner has no right to determine who can enter his/ her home. Same goes for a sovereign state.

          Charity is a choice, not an obligation. Especially charity toward thousands, as opposed to a few. Quantity is very relevant in this context.

          The big problem is that the invasion by illegals can be seen as well-deserved blowback for the constant meddling by first-world countries in the doings of the third world.

          So, the answer is (1) stop the entry of illegals and (2) stop the stupid policies that drive them to leave their countries, or that give them excuses to do so, and (3) stop the made-up narratives the confuse home populations as to their moral obligations toward illegals.

            open Society Foundations has put 18 billion into SSA over the past few years.
            These people are supposedly coming here because they live on 2 dollars a day.
            But they are able to save up 2000 to 8000 dollars to pay the smugglers!
            Then multiply that by the fact that the OSF run the people smugglers so get the money back and can recycle it.
            The original version of Borderless had that discussion in it, but it was cut in the final release.
            Still worth watching to watch all the interviews and find out that these people in general think they are coming to be football stars and recording artists.

      The first time I ever came across the pejorative “useless eaters” was in a David Irving biography of Josef Göbbels (great reading – free .pdf download from his website).

      The Reichsminister was referring to the advisability of exterminating mental defectives, cripples and others who could make no evident contribution to society.

      The term seems to have caught fire in recent years. I’ve seen it in various contexts.

      • Jarek August 19, 2022 at 2:32 pm #

        Now the compassionate anti-Nazis want to exterminate us. We defeated the Nazis but we are the Nazis now, you see. We’re White and so were they.

    • Paula D August 19, 2022 at 8:37 pm #

      Useless eaters is a term from the past, like ”too many mouths to feed”.
      It comes from the time when people understood that providing enough food for everyone was quite a chore.
      Like the Chinese when they instituted a One Child policy.

      But Americans alive now have all grown up in a time of fossil-fueled food abundance and they are unable to grasp the concept of not enough food for everyone. That is why they were so uppity about the Chinese policy.

      Now here we are, at the end of fossil fuels in a time of widespread drought.

      Guess what clichés will suddenly be remembered as full of wisdom?

    We trust our doctor. In the spring/summer of 2020, we sent our doctor a number of articles from other countries in S America about the use of Ivermectin.

    This was followed by the stunning and low covid rates in Africa- by a population using “Sunday-Sunday” Ivermectin weekly.

    This was followed by Uttar Pradesh who completely wiped out covid using good techniques and Ivermectin.

    Our doctor has been using and prescribing Ivermectin since that time. He is a huge believer. This despite the fact he has been exposed to covid literally hundreds of times in his clinic- and has yet to contract covid.

    You can’t get an emergency use authorization if another drug is doing the job- thus the use of Ivermectin was suppressed and vilified in every media outlet that accepts pharmaceutical ad revenue which is essentially all of them.

      There are a few ethical doctors around who actually give a damn about their patients and read about the field they practice. Probably about 25% of MDs, maybe 1/3rd.

      The problem is that most doctors are authoritarian personalities who derive their own sense of power from their yielding to the power of medical boards and societies. Kind of like, ‘I was just following orders.’ But with a twist.

      • SW August 19, 2022 at 4:11 pm #

        And most doctors are now all but completely controlled by the hospital administrators. I can give an example I know personally from working in detox & rehab:

        Dr. C. had an 18 year old female patient who was completely detoxed, in good health and totally disinterested in rehab. She was disrupting every group and he told her to either commit to recovery or he would d/c her. He was told by the administration he would do no such thing as her parents were wealthy and they were paying full cost for as long as it took to get her on track. He explained it wasn’t ethical to keep someone who refused treatment just b/c the parents could pay. He was fired two months later.

        • JohnAZ August 19, 2022 at 4:28 pm #

          No, Hospitalist MDs are controlled by the hospitals. They run your medical care in the hospital visit.

          But, the family practices are being bought up by medical corporations such as Banner or Village Medical here. Literally buying MD practices. My own experience is our GP sold his entire clinic to Village Medical, the whole office. Moved them to a Walgreens as a Village Medical family practice clinic.

          We quit after 18 years.

          Banner controls hospitals, clinics, Urgent Care centers, imaging sites, labs. Basically the entire medical experience.

          Nice, how are those apples, Neurodoc?

      • Islander August 19, 2022 at 7:49 pm #

        Also there are a lot of nurse practiioners out there functioning as primary-care physicians. And in my experience (admittedly limited) they just do not have the chops.

        They do not keep up on literature, do not have enough basic knowledge to make some of their own decisions, etc.

        Of course, I guess most bona fide docs are no better . . .

    TDS knows no bounds, the gist of this article is completely laughable:

    Alec Baldwin said in an interview that aired Friday that he was worried supporters of former President Donald Trump would kill him after Trump suggested that the actor purposely shot cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the Rust movie set last year.

    “Here was Trump, who instructed people to commit acts of violence, and he was pointing the finger at me and saying I was responsible for the death,” Baldwin said in the interview with CNN.

    The actor added, referring to the supporters of the former president who stormed the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, “1000% percent I’m nervous that a bunch of people who were instructed by the former president to go to the Capitol and they killed a law enforcement officer, they killed somebody. And you don’t think that I think to myself are some of those people are going to come and kill me?”

    In an interview weeks after the shooting, Trump said that he believed Baldwin “had something to do with it.”

    “But if nothing else, how do you take a gun, whether it’s loaded or not loaded, how do you take a gun, point it at somebody that’s not even in the movie, and just point it at this person and pull the trigger, and now she’s dead,” the former president said on Chris Stigall’s radio show.

        I remain of the opinion that Baldwin shot her on purpose. They reportedly had a lot of fights. And there were many other details that when combined with his bizarre claim that the gun shot her all by itself just all seem to lead down the same path.

    Another most excellent article, James. A very concise overview of the absolute hoax that Covid19 is and the damage it’s done.

    I will say though that I didn’t allow it to happen. I knew it was disinformation campaign from week 1. I refused to wear masks, I posted on social media the CDC/World-o-meter numbers weekly so that people could see that “millions” were not dying (and in fact, the number that always came up, despite all of the numbers being inflated to begin with, was 0.027% fatality rate – pandemics require a 4% fatality rate if I’m not mistaken). Nevertheless, even though the CDC’s numbers didn’t gibe with what they were saying on TV (indeed, there are some people who STILL believe that the fatality rate was up to 50%!!!), no one wanted to believe it. There is something profoundly wrong with a society that wants to be afraid, wants there to be something out there that might kill them, rather than trying to find the actual truth of the matter.

    I also discovered that infographic on the WEF’s site in March, 2020, which I as a designer understood had to take months to create – and it was all about the covid19 agenda and aftermath.

    Then the epidemiologists started speaking up and I listened to them. But most others did not.

    So, I have never allowed the covid19 narrative or campaign to stop me. I quit a job where they wanted to force-jab me, I moved to a red state to escape the CA gestapo tactics, I helped the recall campaign against Newscum, I spent thousands of hours on social media debunking the lies.

    So did most of my friends who saw the writing on the wall pretty much immediately. It’s a pity that it has taken two whole years for others to catch onto the hoax but now it’s too late to do much about it.

    I just welcome the lawsuits. Let’s see where those take us.

    The slow collapse happens because of inertia.
    That’s why modern economic systems cannot end in a day.
    Public sentiment has already turned against the covid narrative. The majority of western society is well aware that they were tricked. To what extent? This remains to be seen.
    The same inertia that guides all masses, is at play within the covid narrative. The tricked are getting rapidly angry as the nonsense continues even through the mounding evidence.
    We the dirty public are only starting to see it. The so-called elites are getting scared, hence the walking back.
    They actually think that society will forgive and forget.
    The problem is, they have pissed off the MASSES.
    You, and I were never a concern in the long run.
    Just the same as we never were a concern when we refused to comply. We’re within the statistical margins.
    Unfortunately for the Gates, Shlobs, and all mother WEFers out there, they have pissed off the moms, the Nascar dads, the guy pumping gas and the ones who grow the food.
    Even better they have angered the ones who guard their sleep at night.
    Inertia has turned, the momentum will be remembered throughout the ages even after the ww3 they bring to stop the masses.

        will still be United.

          We need to stop thinking macropolitically.

          Our so-called leaders are carving things up behind the scenes for little fiefdoms after the reset. Same as tech and industry giants.

          Homogeneous regions still exist and they will after.

          What we need to do is figure out how to reject the redrawing of the same old power systems in the new reality that is coming.

          Change happens, our great grandparents had no idea what could be beyond the next great plow, if we as humanity deny the same people who have been in charge the ability to rebuild to benefit them most humanity can win fir once.

    “Of course, the more sobering picture is that virtually all American institutions are now incredible”

    They are non-credible

    Untrustworthy. Actively untrustworthy.

    Incredible?
    Trump has vanquished yet another nepotistic crime syndicate from the corridors of electoral politics.

    First the Bush’s then the Clinton’s now the Cheney’s

    And this is perhaps the only reason, incredibly, why many people voted for him.

    So, when one is sobering up to the flaming landscape picture painted before their eyes, remembrance is the order of the day.

    You embarked on this.
    Nobody said it was going to be pretty
    or easy
    or that the establishment was going to go quietly and certainly not with their despotic germ warfare and assaults on civil liberties

    You did this

    Relish it

    • JohnAZ August 19, 2022 at 4:39 pm #

      Yes, these dynasties are the spine of the Deep State, Many more need to be destroyed. As least Trump is pointing his guns in the right direction.

  50. Roundball Shaman August 19, 2022 at 2:50 pm #

    “We’re witnessing the destruction of every institution in the land and nobody knows how to stop it….

    There are people in The Indispensable Nation who know how to stop it. The real problem is that hardly any one seems to have the true desire to stop it. Lots of anger and gnashing of teeth and very little useful action.

    ‘The Fight’ has largely been weaned out of the American People. It started to die out after The Greatest Generation and then the Counter-Culture of the Swingin’ ‘60s died out… and it has been disappearing ever since. And, of course, this emptying has been helped along by the Dark State Predator Class at every opportunity as being bad for Their filthy interests.

    “The CDC seems to think nobody will notice its crimes, and the crimes of its sister agencies, FDA, NIAID, NIH… gross violations of the law and the basic social contract.”

    Crimes only matters in an environment where The Rule of Law exists. Now that the Rule of Law has been dismantled (at least for ‘Those Who Count In This Society’)… as they say the fish rots from the head. And we are surrounded by Rotting Fish Heads everywhere we turn. No wonder everything today stinks so bad.

    “Oh, one more thing: they destroyed modern medicine.”

    Modern Medicine destroyed itself. They could have stood their ground and held true to their vows of true care for the health of people. But They caved under their lack of virtue and integrity and the devil’s lure of filthy lucre and cushy titles and position.

    As Groucho once said to a lady, ‘Now that we know what You are, we’re just haggling about Your price’.

    “We’re sailing into the flu season with millions of people whose immune systems are wrecked by multiple shots of mRNA novelty drugs.”

    Time to haul out that flag again: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. Time for The Shrub to say it again on behalf of all those who participated in this new Crime For the Ages.

    “The CDC capped the week’s walk-back campaign by announcing a major overhaul of how the agency works.”

    This is just window dressing. The CDC worked PERFECTLY for what They were truly intending to do. High fives all around…

    “… the more sobering picture is that virtually all American institutions are now incredible, impossible to believe, starting from the top…”

    One credibility is lost… it is lost forever.

    ‘Oh Honey no, I won’t cheat again. I PROMISE!…’

    “The college presidents and deans have dishonored the idea of truth-seeking with their cowardly submission to Jacobin-Marxist maniacs and their program of anti-knowledge.”

    See above quote from Groucho.

    “And who, in America really trusts his doctor?”

    Doctors don’t even trust themselves anymore.

    The Big Bad Pharma Cartel commercials on TV say… ‘If you have any of these symptoms tell your doctor.’

    To which you should yell back at the screen… ‘I’m not telling my doctor a DAMN THING anymore. And you can take your Miracle Cure and shove it where your obscene profits don’t shine…’

    “Serious people must be seriously asking themselves: what will it take to stop them now?”

    Perhaps we could start by having a sufficient amount of people to WANT to stop it. Actions follow true desires.

          Another Groucho line…

    My Wife and i argued today because she stated that Sam Harris is still extremely intelligent though he believes Trump ia worse than BinLaden.
    I disagree because that kind of a mental or ego flaw puts you out of the running.IMO.

        Bin Laden has several body doubles.
        To the point the US said they killed him at least three different times.
        I believe they got him in Tora Bora.

        The guy they killed that Obama said was Bin Laden could not have been as Bin Laden was reported to have severe kidney disease and needed constant medical treatment for it.

        Interesting fact when they got the body onboard the Carl Vinson blood pooled on the deck and into one of the tie down devices on the deck so they painted it red.
        I have seen that red painted tie down or as they are known pad eye.

      Sam Harris is a comedy sideshow.

      He is currently getting hammered for claiming that even if Hunter Biden was caught with a basement full of children’s corpses, he would have voted for Biden.

      He followed up by claiming Trump U was worse than the above.

      LOL.

          He gets owned time and time again (Dan Dennett shredded him) and he whines away to his podcast listeners, “… if only (so-and-so) could understand…”

          He doesn’t understand or ever concede to being wrong
          Because he is conceited and is as smug as they come.

    Situation remains tenuous at the Z. Nuclear Power Plant in eastern Ukraine; disaster looms. I was watching an NBC news report on the matter, which seemed to be a lot of double talk employed to obfuscate the fact it is Ukrainian forces firing artillery at the facility. The way they employed their words you had to pay very close attention to figure out what is really happening — not lying, but not exactly being truthful either.

    Good one! Bold. True. Concise. Spot on.

    Two more words that came to mind:

    LIBERAL – willing to respect or accept behavior or opinions different from one’s own; open to new ideas.

    ENANTIODROMIA – the tendency of things (or people) to change into their opposites, especially as a supposed governing principle of natural cycles and of psychological development.

    I love words. They reveal so much (www.agapy.com, Time to get real)

    • SoftStarLight August 20, 2022 at 4:22 am #

      Enantiodromia. It actually for whatever reason reminds me of that movie Look Away. Maria or Airam. Who are you really? I realize it’s not the particular analogy you likely had in mind. Since a liberal now is no longer imagined as one willing to accept or respect anothers opinion or idea. But rather is more like the uncontrolled, selfish id of the moment.

    Maybe you did but I never once wore a mask nor ever stopped working. I never hid. I knew it was a con from the very beginning. I refused to let my kids wear masks. I fought EVERYBODY, including my own family and my kids’ schools. I lost almost all of my family to the cult. None of my family injected the bioweapon.
    I didn’t allow shit to happen. Most everyone else were just too uninformed, obedient and cowardly to do a damn thing!!

    This one’s for Rhett Dawson (forgive this young person’s grammatical infelicities):

    “By connecting him stealing an apple pie to Eve eating the apple off of the tree, Soto allows the reader to see that stealing this pie was not just a little sin to Soto; he saw it as the equivalent to the first and most memorable sin in the Bible.”

    — Kimberly Ball

    I’m subsumed in the greater philosophical import of pie-eating, pie-sharing, and pie-cooking. The moral of the story? Don’t become entangled in pie fantasy and revenge, ala the unfortunates in Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus.

          During a royal hunt the following day, Aaron persuades Demetrius and Chiron to kill Bassianus, so they may rape Lavinia. They do so, throwing Bassianus’s body into a pit and dragging Lavinia deep into the forest before violently raping her. To keep her from revealing what has happened, they cut out her tongue and cut off her hands. Meanwhile, Aaron writes a forged letter, which frames Titus’s sons Martius and Quintus for the murder of Bassianus. Horrified at the death of his brother, Saturninus arrests Martius and Quintus, and sentences them to death.

            When Tamora is gone, Titus has them restrained, cuts their throats and drains their blood into a basin held by Lavinia. Titus morbidly tells Lavinia that he will “play the cook”, grind the bones of Demetrius and Chiron into powder, and bake their heads into two pies.

            The next day, during the feast at his house, Titus asks Saturninus if a father should kill his daughter when she has been raped. When Saturninus answers that he should, Titus kills Lavinia and tells Saturninus of the rape. When the Emperor calls for Chiron and Demetrius, Titus reveals that they were baked in the pie Tamora has just been eating. Titus then kills Tamora and is immediately killed by Saturninus, who is subsequently killed by Lucius to avenge his father’s death.

    Check out the video if you can find it online, it is really funny.
    Someone needs to check with Q. to see if this lady is any relation to Peter:

    BRAINTREE, Ma. (WJW) – Police are investigating after an elderly woman drove into the second floor of a Massachusetts mall Thursday morning.

    It happened around 11:45 a.m. inside the South Shore Plaza in Braintree.

    When officers got there, they found a Lincoln MKX stopped on the second floor with the driver still sitting inside. She taken to the hospital for a mental evaluation.

    According to investigators, the driver went in through a footbridge connected to the mall’s south parking garage. Investigators say one of the safety bollards was missing in front of the entrance and the mall sense doors opened when got close.

    Police say the driver went into the mall slowly and took a left, heading about 60 feet down the main corridor before stopping.

      We just had a young Jogger shoot up the Buckland Hills Mall; I remembered when it was built on farmland back in the day — billed as a shopping and entertainment destination for middle class families — now the mall is gladiator pit for rival ethnic gangs who routinely battle it out in the food court and terrorize people in the massive parking lot with drag racing and reckless ‘donut’ performances.

        I googled the mall name and got a brief story of the incident. Here is the first sentence:

        “A loss prevention officer was shot at the Buckland Hills Mall in Manchester on Friday afternoon.”

        I guess ‘loss prevention officer’ is a new term to dignify ‘security guard’ or ‘mall cop.’ Kind of like ‘crowd control engineer’ dignifies ‘bouncer.’

        The suspect doesn’t look like the kind of guy who is taking brush up courses for the SAT test. 😉

      @Tom

      Do you even know what a Fascist is?
      If you did then you would know Trump is NOT a Fascist.
      Simply because you hear on whatever ridiculous faux propaganda outlet saying it does not make it so.

      To Communists or communist light types aka Progressives and Socialists everyone to the right of them is considered a Fascist.

      I suggest looking up Mussolini and compare his policies to Trump and you will see very little in that aspect other than putting ones country first.
      Putting ones country first is not Fascism its common sense.

      Never once saw Trump utter phrases like:
      The plow makes the furrow, but the sword defends it”
      Please stop being such a dope and think about why they attack Trump so much.

      Border security and immigration.
      Should be top of the list.
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_in_Fascist_Italy#Slogans

      In the end fascism makes more sense than communism or socialism but I suggest a subtle blend of all the commonsense elements to add to the Republic.

      • Jarek August 20, 2022 at 1:01 pm #

        Trump likes Fascism and has quoted Mussolini. But he doesn’t have that kind of guts to actually do it. It would get in the way of profits and perhaps even being alive.

        In the end, things come down to a credible monopoly on force. Violence or the real threat of it. Fascism is honest about this. Capitalists are not except the ones at the top who created Communism to do their dirty work for them.

What’s more, the war is intensifying, due mostly to missiles and rocket artillery systems provided by the United States. Crimea is being hit.

    I haven’t read the article, because it’s behind the NYT paywall. However, from reading the comments from reddit users who are discussing the article, the authors argue that the Constitution is essentially too “18th Century” and needs to be reworked for a more progressive future.

    Been watching the Little League World Series this past week on ESPN. Pretty darn entertaining. But I have to say, they’ve got some pretty damn suspicious looking “twelve year olds” on some of these teams. I think they should consider height and/or weight and shaving restrictions for these kids. As in, if your 5’10”, 180 pounds, and you’re already shaving every day, you should be restricted from playing in this, regardless of your claimed or even actual age. I applaud the still little kids who stand in against the smoke these bigger kids (who are we kidding, young men) are throwing (and do quite well in many cases, surprisingly), but it’s still not a fair game, made worse by the fact that the little giants are wont to crow and strut like they’re MLBers when they beat up on kids on half their size.

        Had a funny incident the other night, though. Dominican Republic vs. Mexico. Dominican pitcher was a ringer. Damn major league fastball. Funny thing was, nobody told Mexico (mostly normal sized players, although noticeably better and bigger than their US counterparts from what I’ve seen so far). Back to back homeruns in the first inning and all of a sudden the Dominican pitcher has a meltdown on the mound. Wild pitches, pouty face, and then he starts giving the manager the cut throat sign, meaning get me out of here! Manager makes first visit to the mound and is having none of it. First inning, suck it up kid, stop pouting, and don’t quit on us. A few walks later he finally pulls him for a kid half his size who has impeccable control and one helluva fastball himself, who closes out the side. Didn’t watch long enough to see who won – both teams were really good – but the big Dominican kid who had to be a major league prospect really blew his chance on the big stage.

    The establishment has railroaded him into an impossible position, and at this point he has nothing to loose. What is he going to do, let them pull another “Mueller investigation” on him?

    Nice to see mentions of the often forgotten OKC bombing here. Merrick Garland did such great work keeping the focus on Timothy McVeigh and his one accomplice as the sole perpetrators, that it skyrocketed his career. All the swirl about the storage of bombs in the Murrah Federal Building, and the city council meeting the day before the bombing, and the strange death of Landsberger who bravely aided in the rescue, but some how was found to have died at his desk during the explosion days later. So many people argued they saw him, but a bunch of those witnesses ended up dead later.

    The corn this year is sweet and delectable — I can’t get enough of it. We have this place called ‘The Meadows’ at the bend of the Farmington River — a few hundred acres — top soil is 2′ deep. Indians cleared it in the 13th century, English showed up in 1639. This land has been under cultivation for 800 years. About every 10 years the river floods, fertilizing the soil with natural nutrients (which is the only reason it’s not a housing development) Up until about 1800 this was one of early America’s breadbaskets. I was talking to the gal today who runs the farm stand; she was telling me they pick the corn by hand, one ear at a time. The farm stand sits next to the village market — pick yourself up a half dozen ears of bread & butter corn, walk over to the market, get a steak and a six of Sam Adam’s, you’re all set for the afternoon.

      Good sweet corn is just the best! Corn in general has been unfairly vilified in recent years due to the high fructose variety, while other forms of sugar (which are many!) have proliferated unchecked.

      • BackRowHeckler August 20, 2022 at 3:26 pm #

        Dis, do you have native corn in New Mexico?

        • Disaffected August 20, 2022 at 4:30 pm #

          Very little, although it’s definitely a mainstay in NM food. Takes too much water. Corn is a heavily irrigated crop across much of the mid-northern mid-west, especially NE, IA, and IL, where the flat plains are especially conducive to big ag.

    • Q. Shtik August 20, 2022 at 3:34 pm #

      she was telling me they pick the corn by hand, one ear at a time. – BRH

      =============

      I didn’t know there was any other way to do it. In my early teens I used to walk behind Clarence Victor Jarvis (of Jarvis’ Farm) carrying a basket for him to toss the ears into as he ripped them off the stalks one by one.

      • BackRowHeckler August 20, 2022 at 3:45 pm #

        What do they do in those massive cornfields in the mid west, Q? All that corn can’t be handpicked — it would be an impossible task.

        • Q. Shtik August 20, 2022 at 4:06 pm #

          All that corn can’t be handpicked — it would be an impossible task. – BRH

          ============

          The ears on a stalk don’t all reach a harvestable size at the same time so if there is a machine doing the job it has to be able to detect the ears not ready for harvesting and leave them on the stalk.

          • Disaffected August 20, 2022 at 5:08 pm #

            More likely you get a genetically selected variety to reach ideal harvest times within a selected window and then they split/average out the difference. It all comes down to the numbers. For industrial purposes, it’s all about averaging out the aggregate large numbers.

            Personal gardening for quality is a whole ‘nother thing.

        • MaryQueen August 20, 2022 at 5:28 pm #

          I grew up in the midwest and practically every teenage boy I knew picked corn all summer as a paid job.

          • Disaffected August 20, 2022 at 5:54 pm #

            Yes. Corn <a href="detasseling", https://iowaagliteracy.wordpress.com/2015/07/27/why-do-they-do-that-detasseling-corn-2/ was quite the money maker during my teenage years for a hearty few. Hard work, though, and definitely not for the sun-intolerant. Definitely wasn’t for me.

            Yes it was called ‘detassling’ but weren’t they actually picking the corn?

            Color me confused. My brothers did it too. They’d come home a mess. Not really sure how long they lasted. That is brutal work.

          • Disaffected August 21, 2022 at 9:58 am #

            It’s actually all about pollination. Removing the male flowers on select rows so that neighboring rows of a slightly different variety will pollinate the female flowers on those rows. Picking is pretty much all automated on the big spreads.

        • Blackbird August 20, 2022 at 8:10 pm #

          Big difference between sweet corn, picked by hand, smaller fields, and industrial corn, harvested by combine, gigantic monocultures. Like people, all corn is not created equal.

            Yeah that’s what I’m finding out. Is the industrial corn used mostly for cattle feed?

          • Blackbird August 20, 2022 at 8:59 pm #

            Corn is everywhere Heck, and mostly not eaten. Ethanol, deodorant, foot powder…

            Cattle shouldn’t be eating it – but they are, force fed.

          • MaryQueen August 20, 2022 at 9:04 pm #

          • Paula D August 21, 2022 at 7:48 pm #

            And Blackbird is right. Field corn is not sweet corn.
            Almost all of it is GMO corn. Round-up Ready.
            Farmer shows up in the spring and poisons the field and plants at the same time.
            A couple of days later, the whole field is dead.
            A week later, the corn pops up.

            ln the fall when the corn has dried, the farmer shows up again and harvests it.
            Not labor intensive at all. It’s all fossil fuels, man.

          • Paula D August 21, 2022 at 7:51 pm #

            You don’t have to force feed cows corn. They love it.
            But yeah, they shouldn’t eat it.
            But humans shouldn’t eat junk food either, but they do.

        • Paula D August 21, 2022 at 7:45 pm #

          They don’t pick ears. There is a giant combine that mows everything, then somehow it spews corn kernels into one container and spews everything else out. Pretty amazing to watch, but I have no idea how they do it.
          Human ingenuity.
          And the corn isn’t ”ripe” it’s dried. The whole plant is dead before they harvest.

    RT

    Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has introduced a bill seeking to outlaw puberty blockers and hormone therapy for children in the US and to punish those providing such treatment with jail time.

    Greene, a Republican congresswoman from Georgia, is seeking to ban more than a dozen medical procedures, including surgeries, performed on minors “for the purpose of changing the body of such individual to correspond to a sex that differs from their biological sex.”

    Under Greene’s bill, anyone providing treatment of this kind would face up to 25 years in prison. The legislation would also prohibit federal funding for the procedures.

    The bill titled ‘Protect Children’s Innocence Act’ has been co-sponsored by 14 House Republicans, according to The Hill news website.

    Providing so-called gender-affirming care to minors is “really child abuse,” Greene said on the Fox News show ‘Tucker Carlson Tonight’ on Thursday.

    “These kids are too young to make these awful decisions that will affect them and will be permanent for the rest of their lives,” Greene added.

    She said “this is the kind of thing nightmares are made of.”

    Anglin:

    This is very true. No one should have to see the pictures of tranny surgeries that I’ve seen on 4chan, but it is literally like something out of Hellraiser.

    Trannies and specifically child trannies are about something bigger than just some small group of people that wants to have sex with little boys. Those are the people in charge of the agenda, but that is not really the agenda.

    Here’s the situation: if you agree to child genital mutilation, then you’ve agreed to the worst thing imaginable already. Therefore, you will agree with anything less extreme, because you’ve already agreed to the most extreme thing.

    That is to say, no one is going to say:

    “I’m on-board with mutilating children’s genitals, but this war against Russia is just silly.”
    “I’m on-board with mutilating children’s genitals, but this global warming thing seems like a hoax.”
    “I’m on-board with mutilating children’s genitals, but where is the data on the death toll from the coronavirus vaccine?”
    etc.
    If you’ve already said “I will believe in the single most extreme thing the system is asking me to believe in – that we have to permanently mutilate the genitals of children” then you’re ready to believe in anything at all.

    This is much worse than child molestation, obviously. Just think of it: if someone asks you “would you rather be anally raped or have your dick and balls cut off?”, it’s not a hard question to answer. The same thing if someone puts a gun to your head and asks you if you want your son to be anally raped or have his dick and balls cut off – you’re not going to hesitate. Being molested or anally raped is a very minor thing compared to genital mutilation.

    Right now, we’re supposed to believe that pedophilia is the worst thing ever, but child tranny mutilations are good.

    Anyone who is willing to destroy children like this will go along with anything. That’s why this is so important to the globalists. You can’t ever go anywhere but down from the lowest possible thing.

    But I’ve seen a lot of people getting confused about this and thinking it is just a bunch of pedophiles that have somehow taken control. The homosexual pedophiles running the tranny agenda have been given that control by the highest level people because the highest level people want to create a society with a population that will accept literally anything.

    Jarek: The Greek clarity I’ve come to expect from Anglin. When he talks, I listen. When he says De Santis is the the Dark Horse, the Fair Haired Boy, the Vehicle for the return to Drackonian wing of the Republican Party – the Bill Kristols, the Bushes, the Cheneys – I listen. They’ll be playing us like a fiddle, from far “left” to far “right” – with no real change in policies.

    And of course, Go Maj!

    • MaryQueen August 20, 2022 at 1:52 pm #

      I’ve been pushing for a similar bill to get passed here in Idaho, that would criminalize doctors for maiming children with unnecessary (and insane) surgeries. It passed the house but no one in the senate picked it up.

            I obviously don’t know for sure, but you’ve never mentioned putting yourself out there, saving the world, besides posting amren and Anglin articles with some commentary. And that’s fine. I can appreciate the angle “n’ stuff”. I like seeing all the sides.

            But you continue to ignore my primary angle, which is that we are all out for ourselves. Number one rule. If we don’t self-preserve, we fail and die, first and foremost. Yet we have family and friends, and must also stretch ourselves to look out for them, unless we choose to be alone. We can take care of the elderly, give to charity, get involved in civic affairs and perform random acts of kindness in public, all while self-preserving. But that fact remains part of the human condition.

            We can take on the world and call out every injustice, or we can keep a roof over our family’s head. Very few can do both. Historically it’s been done on a large scale, to be sure. (see: Wars) But the conditions need to exist to convince most to throw their hat in the ring with everything in it.

            There aren’t a whole lot of Jesuses walking around out there, in case you haven’t noticed. There’s a reason we know of him.

            Mild mannered, my ass. You, sir, are kind of a dick. Smart, yes. But that only gets a person so far. That said, keep up your efforts and slick slights. You do serve a purpose. Yet you don’t allow me mine.

            MrMango, if I had to hazard a guess, I’m pretty sure Jarek doesn’t do anything but sit on his fat ass reading racist bloggers and hanging out in Reddit incel chatrooms. Then he criticizes people who are actually doing something.

            I could be wrong, I guess, but that’s how he strikes me, being the self-admitted xenophobe he is.

            The rest of us actually try to do our part to resist the bullshit to the best of our ability in actual society.

          • Jarek August 21, 2022 at 11:50 am #

            Mango: I admit you are not without passion, but it’s for secondary things, like the possibly fake moon landing. I don’t say unimportant, but secondary. Survival of our race leaves you cold – perhaps because it would immediately out you from the false culture, and more importantly, your family and friends. So unconsciously, you decide to ignore it or have no energy for it. Such ignoring leads to ignorance, needless to say.

            You have a passion to belong, which of course is natural. But alas, the evil ones succeeded in slowly changing our culture, so belonging now only comes at a great price.

          The fathers are online in comments sections asking what the feminists are doing to stop it. When feminists have been fighting this with no help for over a decade.

          • Jarek August 21, 2022 at 12:25 pm #

            Feminists want men out of the picture entirely as in the “women and children” meme.

            People ask what are the mothers doing. No sane person cares what feminists think about anything. The poisoning of the feminine mind by Feminism is one of the factors that led to all this. Case in point: Gloria Steinem’s endless refrain that there is no difference between men and women beyond the reproductive organs.

            Of course that is very different from your school which states there is a very great difference, with men as evil and death obsessed and women as good and life giving. Of course Steinem and Co dip into this mindset on a regular basis as well.

            kweeeunmary – another chance to tackle the very pointed criticisms of feminism directly. this young woman was in your shoes, but probably swallowed the bs young enough to not personally identify with it:

            tiktok.com/@shannen.michaela/video/7131227764618841346?is_copy_url=1&is_from_webapp=v1

            in case you think this is a put up, satisfy yourself that the channel is a pretty broad share of her life – and that this vid has gone viral. really a nice thing for the sad, disillusioned women struggling to find another path.

            fight for equality? its a fight for envy, bitterness and blame. justice? want to add some modifier to that and diminish the word again?

            you’ve been deceived into thinking that the injustice was served up to you especially because you’re a -woman- (using that term loosely, given what i read of you, you might just be a very bored troll).

            got news for you – everybody is subjected to various forms of injustice, but now just have a convenient scapegoat, instead of understanding from where that injustice is served.

            self serving? at least you can admit that there is nothing morally redeeming about where feminism has ended up.

            we judge by the outcome, not the intentions.

            and given the intentions of the originators of this aberration in the human experience, ignorance is no excuse for tolerating evil.

            i know that must be hard for you to understand, but reasonable people can hate feminism without hating women *at all*.

Then the kid grows up and realizes he has been mutilated beyond repair; his life is spoiled, he is a freak, a victim of sexual predators; that people he thought cared about him were simply using him for their own twisted ends?

    On average at least 60% of all murders go unsolved in the U.S. despite all this fancy high tech , despite this being an Era of cheap oil and cheap coal , despite millions of dollars spent on law enforcement.

    I’m guessing that when police response times go back to being measured in hours or even days , that percentage will look even worse.

    Governments won’t be able to hire social workers at 30 – dollars – an – hour , and they will have more pressing priorities than trying to micromanage a million – plus households.

    Pontificate, or take swipes at me , all you wish , for all the good it will do you Mrs. Dinosaur.

            You are so full of yourself that you presume my views on men cheating on their wives with prostitutes (or their wife’s best friend or whoever) do not predate my acquaintance with you by many, many years. Not that I’ve ever been affected by it personally, but I have always found the situation of humiliated women who can’t escape their situation (because they can’t afford to) appalling.

            You have said yourself, on at least two occasions, that no sex act, unless you’re in a cupboard by yourself in the dark, does not affect someone who has no vote in the matter. Your words. I happen to agree with you. And you can’t stand that.

            The fact that I feel no animosity towards you is too painful for you to contemplate. Tough. Keep spitting venom.

          • GreenAlba August 22, 2022 at 6:16 am #

            I don’t like to see anyone being humiliated by anyone. It just happens that women, historically, were the ones who were most often (but not always) trapped by lack of options. It’s one of the reasons that I believe it’s important for women to either have some sort of career or at least be able to make their way decently on their own. The other reason is because husbands not infrequently die or go off with someone else. And even in cases where the husband isn’t going to go off with someone else, it’s only responsible to encourage your wife to be able to keep your children decently if anything happened to you.

    ” add Oklahoma City to your list – ”

    I prefer Waco.

    EVEN IF the Branch Davidian’s were nuts ,

    EVEN IF the Branch Davidian’s started the fire themselves ,

    Bashing a tank into a building occupied by children doesn’t prove that you care about those children , it proves that you don’t give a fuck about those children.

    As likewise, threatening children with criminal consequences and / or the breaking up of their families if they won’t rat out their parents , like the FBI and ATF consistently did at Waco , proves you don’t give a fuck about those children.

    Here , certainly, is a case where the child welfare excuse doesn’t fly.

    If Branch Davidian children were being abused ( which the child survivors have consistently denied , 20 years later , last I heard )

    Were they better off being incinerated, like many were , or driven into poverty like many were when their families were incinerated?

    And if the Branch Davidian’s were stockpiling weapons ,

    Well , the fact is they had not used them ,

    At least not until folks with automatic weapons and tanks showed up.

    But let’s say the Branch Davidian’s MIGHT HAVE USED their stockpiled weapons LATER ?

    Pre- emptive aggression was what the Nazis were originally condemned for.

    ( the Holocaust thing was added on later )

    Speaking of the Holocaust, defenses of the Feds actions at Waco pretty much come down to ;

    ” Those people were nuts ”

    i.e. Those people are inferior, so the rules don’t apply to them.

    ( Here’s another example of Kesa Anna defending Protestants where Protestants won’t )

      And yes – the entire excuse was “they are crazy.”

        It was a warning to the church.

        You can’t ignore the truth and make up sh!t and expect to be saved in sin [ 1 John 3:4 ].

        Vernon had the men and women separated into groups and was attempting to impregnate the women to raise up the twenty four elders read about in Revelations. They were all going along with it, except for the young innocents.

        All men serve Him. Some to bring judgement, which must begin at the house of God.

        If we would judge ourselves [ according to the plain standards provided ] we would not be judged.

        • messianicdruid August 21, 2022 at 6:40 am #

          “It was a warning to the church.”

          By “church” I am, of course, referring to all that name the Name of Christ. I hate denominationalism and the constant and seemingly unending divisions we make to the body of Christ. Do not quench the Spirit.

          • messianicdruid August 21, 2022 at 10:16 am #

            “Basically those people were taken out because they dared to be on their own.”

            Expanding here a bit:

            The warning of the fruit of the tree that should be avoided, which partaking would make us “know” good and evil.

            Using the word “decide” [ deciding ] in place of “know” [ knowing ] will bring understanding.

            Trust is the issue – can you follow simple instructions or must you learn the hard way by deciding for yourself and suffering in it [ experiencing evil ]?

            Deciding “on their [ our ] own” what is good and what is evil brings judgement.

      Point – counterpoint.

      Waco was about establishing the fact that if you push the Feds far enough they will throw out the rules and declare open, old school warfare on you and yours. Limited effectiveness, as far as it goes, in that it generates a lot of bad PR and unrest among the herd.

      OKC, in addition to being a proof of concept dress rehearsal for the much larger 9-11 operation to follow, was about proving the Feds were smart and organized enough to successfully pull off a major, complex, fully coordinated false flag operation to get the American people to willingly throw away their constitutional rights in favor of a false sense of safety and security provided by the very criminals they should be most afraid of. VERY, VERY EFFECTIVE, and STILL yielding ENORMOUS dividends to this day!

      Then, of course, CV-19 took it to the next level again, but there’s no need to review that here. We haven’t seen the end of that one yet by a long shot.

      • Paula D August 21, 2022 at 8:26 pm #

        Waco was like Panama in that they killed a shitload of people, including children, to get one guy that they could have gotten easily while he was shopping in town.

        I assume it fulfilled a number of agendas, but burning babies alive on TV, AMERICAN babies! for a change, was clearly aimed at something horrible.

        The Long Perspective.

  81. chimayred August 20, 2022 at 10:12 pm #

    wow, last couple of posts have had comments extolling R M Nixon and quoting the Beatles. What an amazing time to be alive.
    Anyway, here’s something in your backyard to chew on. I’m a retired 67 “decorated” physician, never been disciplined, sued, censured, etc. I’m practically a boy scout. I retired in Nov 2021 rather than be terminated for refusing the vaccine, because if I had been terminated, it would be a reportable event on my record. So screw them; i went out with my head high.
    What’s happened in medicine in the last 40 years has nothing to do with money, access or any other type of manufactured crisis. It has to do with an unholy alliance of organized medicine (AMA, Mass General), insurance companies, , Woke state Boards and, sadly, professional organizations, the relaxation of the self policing of physicians who used to not be able or willing to advertise, the destruction of private practice (in part fueled by women docs, who, while capable, had a tendency to discover that they – hey -also wanted kids and wanted to work part time and – hey – who needs private practice or ownership or headaches of any type. I’ll work part time for a group or even better, for an HMO, PPO. hospital, or any other type of employed group. Of course they have no power and no recourse and it creates large organizations that hire them who are not beholden a bit to their practice requirements). Not to dismiss women as capable docs; the ones who are aggressive are every bit as capable as their testicular cohorts – and in some cases – superior to…but that’s a digression), and the profit motive.

    Now, hospitals ain’t businesses. You can run ’em with solid business techniques, but there are no shareholders and the delivery of health care is a relatively noble profession. It isn’t piecework. You can’t staff to the mean. You may have 20 CT scans a day, but the day IS going to come when a school bus full of kids is hit by a truck and you’re going to have 40 kids who need head and C spine CT’s (true store. Happened to me once). Once whores got into the business – especially CEO’s, CFO’s, COO’s, etc who realized they didn’t have to have a lick of business sense or vision to suck at the federal or insurance teat, it went to hell. Absurd fee schedules (my brother crashed his plane recently; he was coptered 50 miles to a trauma center and discharged the same day – charge was $75,000 for the airlift alone. He happens to be a pilot and a doc, and knows exactly what the costs of that airlift shoulda been. But this nonsense is the result of the influence of the government and insurance companies on the revenue available to docs, CPT codes, ICD 10 codes, RVU’s… Hence, an MRI at a S—hole hospital like one I used to work at may cost as much as $10K. Drive across the river, and the entire MRI costs $750. But the difference is much of the $750 will come out of your pocket. If you have good insurance, after discounts your insurance company will pay enough of the 10K bill that your out of pocket will be minimal compared to the private sector. So there is a direct disincentive to provide affordable care.
    And so – a pristine example of what we’re up against -exacerbated by covid but happening before – is that ignorant CEO’s and their suckups (defined as anyone not directly involved in patient care – risk management, utilization review, department of nursing administration, scheduling, all the middle management) – are draining $$ away from the people who actually scrub in OR’s, run CT scanners and US machines, give meds, run lab assays, and docs who deliver care. So, Local hospital, where I had 2 ultrasounds recently has mostly traveling ultrasonographers and are so badly staffed that wait times approach 2-3h and booking times are several weeks out. The only way to get a CT or US rapidly is to job the system and go to the ER, which is largely mandated by the administration to take any junkie, alcoholic, psychotic, or malingerer – deliver care, order as many tests and imaging as they can possibly justify – and they get to leapfrog the usual scheduling such that the overworked and understaffed Xray and labs are obligated to squeeze in the ER patients. It’s a ruse we used to do allll the time. Used to be if I had a complication after a procedure that I couldn’t handle I’d call the referring doc and they’d invariably say – “send them over to my office; I’ll have a look and get back to you.” Now, they say, without question or hesitation – “send them to the ER”. Can’t imagine why that might create access issues…. At Local hospital the one CT machine – the second was gotten rid of by a brilliant administrator – was manned – or womanned – by 6 CT techs. As of this week, 5 have quit. They are underpaid, overworked. Yet the CEO’s in the region including the CEO of the large famous system that owns Local Hospital – made 3+ million in 2020. Of course, for 3 months he took a 50% pay cut to show his solidarity with the troops.

    I will tell you categorically, that other than big decisions – whether to merge, whether to fund a big expansion or new service – everyone beyond a department supervisor in virtually any hospital in America is superfluous. Like the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, which has no conductor, hospitals can run very well with just the people who deliver care, order supplies, clean, etc. There is no administrator who is necessary for patient care. None. Zero. I was a chief of a department for 10 years. I guarantee this. When I was a chief, our CEO took a year sabbatical. Most staff and all patients had no idea he was gone. So when big time CEO is making 3 million a year, and yet his subsidiary hospital has no CT or US techs, well, one million of that would go a looooong way toward keeping those people happy. Yet they continue to blithely claim that what they are doing is patient centered and all about care. It is, and always has been, 100% BS. And don’t forget, it isn’t just the CEO making a couple million.
    Layer on that a COO, CFO, CNO, CIO, all their direct reports, sweetheart deals with certain physicians, every middle manager and their staff who contribute absolutely nothing to patient care – and it’s way more than a few million.

    When these guys screw a community by sucking money out of the system it means the hospitals can’t fund their techs, keep their equipment up to date, order supplies (at one time Local hospital ran out of syringes and did not have external pacers in the ER, despite nurses who continually told their supervisor that this was critical equipment). So when you go to your hospital and they want to transfer you to a tertiary center but can’t because there are no EMT’s or life flights, or have to divert you because they’ve shut down the CT scanner for 8h a day so you can’t get your head CT, or can’t slap a pacemaker in your child because the department manager is too incompetent to appreciate the need to stock these, or in the middle of your kyphoplasty they have to quit because the Xray machine has locked up yet again with an 11g needle 1 cm from your spinal cord and they refuse to upgrade it…it all falls on the administrators, politicians, and insurance companies. And of course, the few prostitute physicians and nurses who are in league with this. Be afraid.

            Complaints of a post or story being “long-winded” almost always piss me off.

            Some arguments or analyses take a lot of words to state and unpack. There is no way to be terse in those instances.

            Also, “long-winded” is relative. 10,000 words can be concise, while twenty words can be long-winded if the same thing could be said in ten words.

      Even before “covid” (which has earned scare quos from me a la “Biden”), the USA desperately needed this type of feedback and expose of its health care setup. There were scams aplenty before “covid,” as you point out.

      The whole situation has been sent to the national ER by the “covid pandemic.”

      An observation, and a question;

      I have a low opinion of Nurse Practitioners…in my neck of the woods they are being assigned as primary care physicians. They seem, in many cases to be guilty of overreach…The wife and son both had NP’s who would attempt to contravene a doctor’s
      diagnosis/instructions. The use of NP’s, no doubt, makes fiscal sense, but I believe it lowers the quality of health care to 3rd world thatched-hut-in-the-bush levels.

      I’m sure there are competent ones, and that most are competent nurses… and I believe that they have the best interests of their patients in mind…just a howling lack of education and experience.

      Your comment would be appreciated.

      You nailed it, for sure.
      When I started my last job in 1993 there was a hospital administrator and his secretary, who had offices on the first floor on the hospital.
      By the time I got fired for refusing the flu shot in Nov 2015, there was an entire 5 story building full of IT support, for the computer medicine that Obamacare forced on the entire system, and an entire floor at the dead mall that was turned into an administration area. They had frigging street signs on their aisles!
      We went through 7 supervisors in one year at one place I worked at, and we just kept working the same way.
      Another time we went without a supervisor for a year and there was no discernable problem.

    Once upon a time Priests had the seal of the confessional ,

    Attorneys had attorney – client privilege ,

    and physicians had physician – patient confidentiality.

    I figured Medicine was pretty well fucked when I learned sometime in the early 1980’s that sometime in the 1970’s or 1960’s they did away with that.

    The excuse was confessions to Shrinks would catch some serial killers and child molesters.

    Well I don’t care what kind of ph.d you have , you’re a fucking idiot if you think that once the Robber Barons have the key to your panty drawer , they are going to stop at serial killers and child molesters.

    Another excuse was drunks , druggies , fatties and such cost all us ascetic tax payers money , so …..

    Death , in general , cost the taxpayers money .

    —- and life , in general , costs the taxpayers money.

    That’s the sort of argument that a dull – witted 5th grader with minimal math skills could nevertheless ” prove ” .

    An excuse peculiar to the 1980’s was that we gotta know who has AIDS , so heteros won’t get AIDS .

    That was 30 years ago now , and just how many non – fags do you know who got AIDS ?

    500 ?

    100?

    A dozen ?

    Even one ?

    So here we are 40 – 50 years later ,

    You aren’t a serial killer , or a child molester ,

    Nevertheless when you talk to your physician you have no idea whether you are just talking to your physician,

    Or actually talking to a billion dollar pharmaceutical company ,

    Or actually talking to a billion dollar HMO ,

    Or talking to a government agency , and which one ?

    But noooo , the one thing couldn’t have anything to do with the other.

    The ruling class with its Getty’s , Rockefeller’s , Chapaquitic Kennedy’s and Bill Gates’s are fucking famous for their scruples !

    OK, so maybe you were only 50% fucked with the fall of confidentiality?

    In George Orwell’s 1984 , at one point Winston Smith wonders if Oceania’s endless wars are even real . Maybe the wars are entirely made up ?

    Well , somewhere along the line somebody figured out you could use medicine to invoke a war – like state of emergency, and throw ALL the fucking rules out the window , as a threat to public safety.

    And the beauty is that in this case you need a pH. D , a million dollar lab , and that sort of thing , to prove a fraud.

    The evidence , if it exists at all , is microscopic .

    Now you are 100% fucked.

  86. Islander August 21, 2022 at 7:54 am #

    To return to the point of JHK’s essay, here I paste in a post from Toby Young at Daily Skeptic (posted in full, since it contains much Telegraph text, which is behind a paywall):
    “Is it Time For the Pro-Lockdown Fanatics to Fall to their Knees and Beg For Forgiveness?”

    “Camilla Tominey, an Associate Editor of the Telegraph, was one of the few mainstream journalists who warned that the cost of lockdowns might outweigh the benefits – and was duly rounded on by her more ’compassionate’ colleagues and accused of putting profits before people. In today’s paper, she asks if it’s time for the lockdown zealots to apologise to the sceptics, given that we’ve been proved right.

    When journalists like me… warned that the lockdown cure might be worse than the disease, we were accused of being mercenary murderers intent on prioritising the economy ahead of saving lives.

    Scientists who dared to question the severity of the restrictions were, as Lord Sumption put it at the time, “persecuted like Galileo”. Falsely branded “Covid deniers” simply for questioning some of the “science” that was slavishly followed, they were subjected to appalling online abuse by a bunch of armchair experts who claimed to know better.

    Professor Robert Dingwall faced career “cancellation” for refusing to drink the zero-Covid Kool-Aid, as did the likes of Professor Carl Heneghan, Professor Sunetra Gupta and leading oncologist Professor Karol Sikora.

    Yet now we learn that they were right to raise their concerns in the face of pseudo-socialist SAGE groupthink.

    Official data now suggests that the effects of lockdown may be killing more people than are currently dying of Covid.

    An analysis by the Daily Telegraph’s brilliant science editor Sarah Knapton (another figure who was pilloried for questioning the pro-lockdown orthodoxy) has found that about 1,000 more people than usual are dying each week from conditions other than coronavirus.

    Figures released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) on Tuesday showed that excess deaths are 14.4% higher than the five-year average, equating to 1,350 more deaths than usual in the week ending August 5. Although 469 deaths were linked to Covid, the remaining 881 have not been explained. Since the start of June, the ONS has recorded almost 10,000 more deaths than the five-year average – about 1,086 a week – none of them linked to coronavirus. This figure is more than three times the number of people who died because of Covid over the same period – 2,811.

    The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has asked for an investigation into the data amid concern that the deaths are linked to delays and deferment of treatment for conditions such as cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.

    Worth reading in full – although it’s a pity Camilla doesn’t go further and allow for the possibility that the current spike in excess deaths may be partly caused by vaccine injuries. She could have made the point that those raising the alarm about the mRNA Covid vaccines should not be cast as beyond the pale and banned from social media platforms, as many lockdown sceptics were, but debated openly in the public square.

    Stop Press: The highest-rated comment beneath Camilla’s piece, by Big Dude, reads as follows:

    I hope history properly, and severely judges the excessive lockdowns, the manufactured panic, the false virtue signalling, the Health Sec who abandoned our health, the snitchy curtain twitching busy body neighbours, the petty pumped up local officials who shut country parks, those who predicted there would be mass death from Bournemouth beaches, the police forces assuming powers of dictators, the mask lovers, the BBC, the Guardian, James O’Brien, the scientists and medics who abandoned science but in some cases got even more letters after their names, yes you, Whitty, Vallance, Michie, Ferguson, the preening, pompous preposterous leaders, Starmer, that Scottish woman, the increasingly ridiculous heads of Canada and NZ.

    Perhaps one day, some of them may even apologise, and if not, should they remain in the public eye, they should be respectfully reminded at every opportunity what they have done.

    Stop Press 2: Prof Robert Dingwall says lockdowns are to blame for the recent rise in excess deaths.

    Stop Press 3: A reader has sent in this quote from Alexander Hamilton. When it comes to a public apology, the lockdown sceptics probably shouldn’t hold their breath.

    To retract an error even in the beginning is no easy task. Perseverance confirms us in it and rivets the difficulty; but in a public station, to have been in an error, and to have persisted in it, when it is detected, ruins both reputation and fortune. To this we may add that disappointment and opposition inflame the minds of men and attach them still more to their mistakes.”
    +++++++++

    Since the USA seems to be enamoured these days of its imagined picture of Hamilton, perhaps this quote will get some attention . (not holding my breath) —Islander. .

      “Mistakes were made” is a statement you’ll never hear from elected officials or their appointed lackeys. The closest you’ll ever get is “We did the best we could (no you didn’t) with the information we had (which was all fabricated) in an emergency situation (which was also fabricated),” and you’ll have to squeeze the hell out of them for that.

    • Slugoon August 21, 2022 at 12:06 pm #

      I’ve been tracking the ONS statistics for England & Wales throughout the pandemic and have pointed out that all-cause deaths have been above the 5-year average for four months now. I’m glad it’s starting to draw attention, although I notice the MSM won’t touch it.

      The Under-1s and 1-14s are essentially unchanged (no notable increase/decrease, and the numbers are small anyway) but since the end of April 2022, weekly deaths for each age group are up by:

      15-44 +5%
      45-64 +10%
      65-74 +7%
      75-84 +16%
      >84 +14%

      I plotted the +/- 5-year average against the 2021 vaccine roll out. Alarmingly, but not surprisingly, the weekly average increases in perfect sync with the number of vaccines administered.

      In March 2021, when practically none of the population had received a ‘vaccine’, the weekly deaths were below the 5-year-average, presumably presumably following the culling of the second wave (which blew itself out without any vaccines at all). As vaccines were administered from March to the end of the year, weekly deaths increased in perfect proportion and by September they were sitting at nearly 1,400 per week above the 5-year average. Safe and effective.

      We’ve been sitting at nearly 1,300 per week for 15 weeks now, and counting.

      Must be the Russians. Or institutional racism. Or Trump.

        They will be able to hide the increase more easily after the end of this year, when the previous 5-year average will include 2021 and 2022. By 2024/5 it will just be ‘normal’, unless the cull starts to speed up.

        • Slugoon August 21, 2022 at 6:25 pm #

          • Rhett Dawson August 21, 2022 at 3:13 pm #

            Plus, GA has completely missed the point here.

            I am not saying that Mary cannot call me “crazy” (“bonkers,” “bi-polar,” etc.) because it is unacceptable behaviour or because it hurts my feelings or because I am contending that such character assassinations are even without merit.

            No. I am saying that that is no argument at all. Mary ignores all points made and simply dismisses everything with her red-herring ad hom attacks here on a venue that is supposed to be about reasonable, logical dialogue.

            Here in the real world, crazy people see all sorts of stuff. In fact, many crazy people have seen the world more clearly than do the rabble and have often been driven to their insanity by the illogical stupidity of all those around them. TruStory

            That is, calling me “crazy” does not prove me wrong. Calling me “crazy” and then claiming victory by simply doing so is corrupt and intellectually lazy. Once we set aside our illogical emotions, we all know that.

            As I say, I had already proven Paula D wrong “seven ways to Sunday” while she continued to act out like an 11 year-old girl now foolishly dominating the adult conversation far after her argument has been shown for what it is.

            Sooner or later, a man must shut that shit down lest it go on forever. In fact, that’s how 11 year-olds learn and become adults.

    However, 1918 influenza was uniformly nonlethal in these two species, demonstrating that this isolate is insufficiently pathogenic in rhesus and Mauritian cynomolgus macaques to support testing novel prophylactic influenza approaches where protection from severe disease combined with a lethal outcome is desired as a highly stringent indication of vaccine efficacy.

    Jarek: Translation into English:

    This means that these people are arguing that we need to make a more dangerous version of the Spanish Flu so they can make “better” vaccines for it… despite the fact that until they recreated it, it likely no longer existed in nature. Much like with COVID, these snake oil salesmen create the disease and then create the cure. Given the complete failure and innumerable dangers of the COVID jabs, the real question is whether the cure will be worse than the disease?

    Jarek: Even the natural Spanish Flu was a doozy that killed tens of millions. But this doesn’t satisfy them? What unspeakable evil, not only to be bring it back, but make it worse and then try to profit by it.

      So sweetcorn here is picked one ear at a time and loaded into green sacks, then trucked over to the farm stand by a guy named Stu in a ’97 Silverado. Right now Bread & Butter corn is selling for 75c an ear; after labor day the price goes down to 50c per ear.

      In the corn belt, when corn is harvested by giant machinery and turned into ethanol, powder, corn chips, corn oil and so on, is the entire stalk harvested, or just the corn on the cob part?

            BRH, even in these parts there are huge fields of corn grown for animal feed. Not to be confused with hand picked sweet corn we just always called it cow corn. The whole plant is used for silage.

          • BackRowHeckler August 21, 2022 at 3:20 pm #

            Ok thanks Stelmo.

      • Paula D August 21, 2022 at 8:39 pm #

        I answered you upthread, BackRowHeckler.
        The corn is harvested late, after the entire plant has died and dried.
        A giant combine comes and runs over the whole field, somehow separating the dried kernels from the rest, which it spews (the kernels) through a giant funnel into a container which is then emptied into trucks.
        The rest of it spews back out.

      I went for a drive today while i still have my car and noticed that regular is 2.99. Diesel is still 4.99. When I see it i always wonder who in the world would choose to buy diesel.

      • stelmosfire August 21, 2022 at 5:20 pm #

        I know huh. If I had a diesel truck I would just use the $2.99 gasoline. I like the smell better also, so there’s that.

    Looks like I may owe the soul of Anne Heche an apology. I took the MSM narrative at face value that she was juiced and out of control. No more to be said — substance abuse history, volatile personality, etc.

    Lotsa info, though, surrounding this story that offers another angle (or more). Heche had just finished a movie entitled “Girl in Room 13”, where she played the lead role (no substance abuse problems, no psych issues on set, in fact she was hard-working and and the director raved about her demeanor and talent) of a mother pursuing justice re the child trafficking of her daughter. The movie was (maybe still is) set to release next month. Heche also had a regular podcast where she talked about and exposed trafficking criminality.

    Also, many contradictions and questions surrounding the actual “accident” itself, including the footage not shown on any MSM news sources. One main conjecture was that her car (apparently all cars 2020 onwards now have some kind of central control mechanism) could’ve been technically highjacked.

    Child abuse in Hollywood — pardon the puns, but there’s been a lot of smoke throughout the years, and gathering fire, quite apart from the Epstein story.

      Did you see the footage of her trying to climb out of the bodybag?

      Pretty crazy.

      Also, there are videos of her car taken from doorbell cams as it sped down various streets prior to the crash. The car was going extremely fast, no braking, etc.

      Perhaps we have another CIA-sponsored killing ala Michael Hasitngs.

      • Soul Forensics August 21, 2022 at 2:27 pm #

        Yes, saw all those clips. And toxicology dept stated there were no drugs or drink in her system after the crash, contradicting the news narrative (which they never corrected).

        Multiple actors and public figures involved in exposing the pedo-murder business who suddenly ‘disappeared’.

      • GreenAlba August 21, 2022 at 3:43 pm #

        I read in a tweet that someone she was collaborating with in looking into child trafficking also died in a car crash the week before.

        It was down from a tweet you posted about something else, NO, but I can’t find it now.

        • GreenAlba August 21, 2022 at 3:46 pm #

          Wasn’t the woman that Alex Baldwin shot also working on something to do with child trafficking?

          • Soul Forensics August 21, 2022 at 3:59 pm #

            To the Baldwin question, GA, yes indeed.

            Hm, I had not heard that part.

            The plot thickens.

            One thing that really gets me about the Baldwin case is that my intuition meter is deep in the red.

            The circumstantial evidence is one thing, but there are so many red flags with his overall behavior, statements, etc.

            My intuition has never steered me wrong. I did have a bad habit of ignoring it back when I cared somewhat about what others thought.

          • GreenAlba August 21, 2022 at 7:07 pm #

            I haven’t looked into the Baldwin shooting in the detail that you and others have on here, but, just as an impression, it has ‘execution carried out under orders’ written all over it. Or a hit job for personal gain, by agreement.

            Mostly because of stuff I’ve learned recently that I had no clue about before.

            I’m reading Daniel Estulin’s book on the Tavistock Institute just now and have just got to his hypothesis that the Kennedy assassination was a ritual killing. My world has become very dark, just as I have got nearer to leaving it!

          • GreenAlba August 21, 2022 at 7:23 pm #

            Actually not Estulin’s hypothesis – he is quoting someone called James Shelby Downard.

          • justanotherguy August 22, 2022 at 2:12 pm #

            i’ve heard things about tavistock for years – involvement with the beatles, tim leary, etc.

            at some point – i just question what value knowing all these things has for me.

            you point our that you’re near (ish?) your own end, things getting darker. none of us is getting any younger, and all this, being here typing, reading about the powers and principalities takes time.

            there is this thing called the 100th monkey, where some few monkeys washed their food, than a couple more – slow change over time. then, some critical behavioral threshold was crossed, and the entire troop adopted the behavior overnight.

            i really wish that putting in effort, like everyone here might be doing, will some day help us all cross that threshold and awaken as a species – no more slavery, no evil of any kind necessary, compassion ruling finally, everyone aware and willing to participate in deciding their own destiny in light of every other’s right to the same.

            but in the mean time, i hope what i learn helps me be a more aware father and husband, and even handed when i see our family become more world wise, and have faith that all of us in this little circle will have better lives for it.

            i’ve read enough of what you write here, that i don’t believe that darkness can contain you.

      I may have to do a mea culpa on Heche. I had seen videos of her wasted out of her gourd, and read that was normal.

      But then again, I may have also been taken in by a media campaign.

      I hope to learn more.

      Since the movie is coming out anyway, why kill her? That is what I wonder.

      • GreenAlba August 22, 2022 at 6:28 am #

        I read somewhere that she had (as is normal practice for conscientious actors) done a deep dive into the topic of child trafficking, in order to prepare for her part in the film. The suggestion was that her research into child trafficking was ongoing.

        But the image of her trying to fight her way out of the body bag is downright sinister.

        • kbird August 22, 2022 at 4:18 pm #

          Green Alba,
          t’s not a body bag. Her lower legs & feet are visible. You can’t “unzip” a body bag from the inside. Instead, she is wrapped in a white sheet. This is common in burn patients because hair, tissue, ect could be falling off. This was not just to contain anything coming off of her body, but to also help protect burned & damaged skin by wrapping her in the clean white sheets available on all ambulances. It was for her protection. She was then strapped down on the gurney, as any transported patient would be to keep her from falling or rolling off. She raised up most likely due to the pain, confusion from the crash, lack of oxygen from the smoke & more & from the effect any substances such as the reported drugs she had in her system. She was clearly confused/combative due to the crash & all the above.

      And because my cousin was killed by a drunk driver in the middle of the day in LA, and because whether or not Heche was drunk she could have killed someone, and was driving erratic, which always puts lives at risk.

    “Men are more obsessed with killing, violence and death.

    After all, they start all the wars and are statistically responsible for 95% of violent crime.” — MaryQ

    Men start most wars because it’s mostly men who are in positions of political power. When women acquire political power, they show just as much bloodthirst as do men. (Hillary vs Trump is just the most obvious, recent example.)

    Also, the men who fight those wars often do so out of a perceived sense of protecting their spouses/girlfriends and families. Sometimes that sense is deluded (all the corporate/energy wars); sometimes not. Furthermore, women often encourage their men to sacrifice themselves. Why? Women love to be upwardly mobile. War increases profits for the victors. And the U.S. has taken advantage of that so that household spending can increase. Women gotta have all the bells and whistles, for their own comfort, but also for social proof and boasting. (Women, by far, rule the major financial decisions in the domestic sphere.)

    Your opinions have all the nuance of a radio hot-line binge listener at a physics convention.

    • Jarek August 21, 2022 at 8:11 pm #

      Yes, women go with the winners. They choose aggressive men, the type mostly likely to start and win wars.

      So you’re agreeing with me. Thanks!

      Notice I didn’t put the reasons.

      Maybe you haven’t been out in the world much. You ought to work in any nonprofit. Men with huge egos are attracted to that work so they can be rock stars while women do all the grunt work and get none of the pay or fame.

      But you do you.

      And, I couldn’t give a rat’s ass about your criticism about me. The fossils up here bake in their resentment of women.

      I will however agree that women who get into power for the most part are as bad as men. That’s because we have to if we want to get there. Thankfully, I don’t want to get there.

      • Soul Forensics August 22, 2022 at 1:06 am #

        “So you’re agreeing with me. Thanks!” — MaryQ

        Who are you addressing, me or Jarek? Is it just laziness that you can’t clarify who you’re speaking to? I’m guessing it’s me, since you made a separate post for Jarek.

        “Notice I didn’t put the reasons.” — MaryQ

        Don’t play coy. You’re arguing like a sophist. The reason you brought it up was to make a value judgement on men as contrasted with women.

        “Maybe you haven’t been out in the world much.” — MaryQ

        An assumptive ad hominem, and an incorrect one. Only someone bereft of any semblance of objectivity would go straight to the personal level to make a guess as to that person’s history without knowing the slightest thing about them. But I’ll indulge you in your line of specious speculation anyway.

        I’m 66, and have worked for an employer — in both the private and public spheres. I have also worked as a business owner, and I have worked for myself alone, as a long-standing entrepreneur. So don’t try to play the laughable appeal-to-authority card with me.

        “You ought to work in any nonprofit. Men with huge egos are attracted to that work so they can be rock stars while women do all the grunt work and get none of the pay or fame.” — MaryQ

        Funny you should say that. I’ve had bitter experience working at a non-profit run by a woman — and managed by a majority of women — and it was the most dysfunctional work environment I’ve had the displeasure to participate in: constant backbiting, ego games, and power politics. I hate power politics, so I wisely never became involved, and left after a better opportunity presented itself. Of course, I wouldn’t generalize — like you do with your reverse gender generalizations — to say ALL nonprofits are like that, just pointing out that your single-person anecdote holds little to no credence.

        “But you do you.” — MaryQ

        Another typically meaningless put down from you.

        “And, I couldn’t give a rat’s ass about your criticism about me.” — MaryQ

        Then why respond at all?

        “The fossils up here bake in their resentment of women.” — MaryQ

        O.G. has shared his personal story. If it’s true, then I can completely understand his resentment. I’m sometimes tempted to tell him that he’s only hampering his own life by hanging on to bitterness, but who the hell am I to get on a high horse? I went through my own version (though not as economically catastrophic) with my own “woman from Hell” in the 90s, but I healed and got on with my life. I married a wonderful woman in 2007 and we continue to have a loving relationship. But I also realize that not every person can recover, and also that some people are tempermentally not suited to be happy in a relationship.

        You also don’t realize your own hypocrisy between the “resentment” of Jarek and O.G. and the resentment of your sister-in-arms Anthea. if the men you malign are “resentful”, then what do you call Anthea’s attitude — courageous? strong? independent? It’s feminist claptrap. Her psyche has been so twisted by her past that she makes wholesale disparaging and ridiculous cardboard cut-out scenarios of all men.

        “I will however agree that women who get into power for the most part are as bad as men.” — MaryQ

        You just contradicted yourself. Re-read your first sentence of the passage I quoted you on my first post above. As I said, the only reason it appears men are more obsessed with death and violence is because they have the means to realize it far more than do women. Women have proven — historically, and in many cultures — that, given the opportunity, they’re just as brutal and sadistic as any male dictator or ideologue or vainglorious fuckhead.

        “That’s because we have to if we want to get there.” — MaryQ

        And how is that different than what a vicious man has to do to acquire power? Being a man doesn’t automatically vault one to the top of the warmongering shitpile. One still has to compete and dominate other vicious men (and women).

        “You’re also going to have to do better debunking that men start all the wars.

        I’m right, and forced you to twist yourself into a pretzel trying to justify it.” — MaryQ

        I just explained it in a qualitative context, not a quantitative one. But again, nuance, context, perspective and proportion aren’t your strong suits.

        “LMAO.” — MaryQ

        I don’t believe for a split second that you’re “LMAO”ing. This is something that 12 year-old youtoob trolls do in an attempt to win arguments. Sad.

    Okay, simple arithmetic.

    Oil was $118/ barrel, now $90. Down 70%

    Gas here was $5.68/ gal, now $3.99 in places. Down 75%.

    Okay, those two are pretty close.

    But, what has happened to make a 25% reduction in cost?

    Saudi Arabia said it could increase production a million barrels by 2025. Not yet!

    The reserve is being depleted by Biden.

    Fracking is still looking for new financing.

    Where is all the oil coming from to drop the price by 25%? Supply side! Has the economy collapsed by big amounts to kill the demand side? No!

    So, is the real reason collusion between the oil companies and the Biden Mob to reduce the price by November to keep Biden off their back?

    Europe is already showing that the Greta dream is a joke and potentially lethal for large groups of people.

          When you say oil is down 70% it is so far off that I cannot let it stand without correction.

          Now, as to the “real justification for the decline,” according to the CNBC business show, it is the result of a decline in demand from China.

      Huh. This is a perfect example of how fuzzy your ‘thinking’ (to be generous) is on all things conspiratorial, JohnAZ.

      As I understood from many previous posts, the ‘Biden Mob’ is going to steal the Nov elections through their very clever and undetectable rigging, and that the gas price had gone sky-high for (insert reason here) to suit the ‘Biden Mob’.

      So, which is it, John? It can’t be both…unless you hold that the ‘Biden Mob’ keeps changing its mind (or you do – I know which is more likely).

      • SoftStarLight August 22, 2022 at 2:06 am #

        Did he really say clever and undetectable rigging? I don’t believe he did. The rigging is fully out in the open so it does not need to be altogether clever. John’s “Biden Mob” benefits from high oil prices and from them temporarily falling. It’s an easy nuance for me to understand so I’m not sure where you’re struggling? Green donors get rich but then a temporary dip is good politically. Start trying harder or stop being a donkey derriere. 😉

      I notice more and more that even scientists and science writers cannot or at least do not calculate percents correctly and also do not express in accurate English the mathematical relationships.

      Percent is a multiplication function.
      Not an addition/subtraction function.

      Statements such as “20% more” and “20 percent less” are incorrect—because meaningless. You cannot understand the information as a result of addition or subtraction.
      Statements such as “ten times smaller” are also meaningless. Presumably what is meant is “one-tenth of.”

      If you translated such statements “back” into math, you would show a multiplication function: AA X (times) .BB (one hundredths expressed as a decimal).

      The difference between “percent,” “percentage,” and “percentage point” also seem to have been lost to Western civilization.

    — BRH

    LOl , I always wanted one of those things !

    Who wouldn’t want one of those sitting around their living room ?

    I have two WW II Era German gas masks.

    Nope , didn’t get them in East Germany.

    I walked into a second – hand store in rural nowheres – ville North Carolina , and there they sat !

    I was shocked.

    It was , I thought , the most Gothically sinister gas mask ever made.

    But what I really thought was cool beans was the long metal cylinder the gas mask was carried in.

    I have seen a lot of handbags , satchels , etc , over the years.

    To my taste , none was ever cooler than the 1920’s – 1940’s German gas mask cannister.

    But then there’s a catch – 22 ;

    You can’t very well just throw the almost – equally cool gas mask away !

    And the gas mask takes up three – fourths of the space in the cannister. 🙁

    There is enough room for cigarettes though.

    🙂

    And another great thing about this gas mask cannister is you could be dunked in the deep end of the pool , and your cigarettes ( and your gas mask ) would still be perfectly dry.

    It’s designed to be absolutely water – proof.

    So no soggy cigarettes , even if it is time for Noah to build a boat.

    Yes , if it had occurred to me once , it occurred to me five hundred times , to go out wearing my old gas mask ,

    and when folks ask , ” What the fuck are you doing ? ! ”

    Reply ;

    ” I don’t want to get Covid ! ”

    But I figure that really would be a bit too gratuitously insulting.

    Anyway , yes , no better head gear was ever invented than the old brass diving helmet !

      Back in East Germany did your family own a ‘Trebant’? I was reading about Trebants: hand operated windshield wipers, two stroke engines, running lights optional lol. I wouldn’t mind having one tho, tool around town in.

        I imagine they’d be something like those old three wheeled mail trucks the Post Office used way back in the day. I knew a guy that had one and it was a blast to mess around with. Learned stick shifting on that little bugger and it was hard to do! Three on the tree, grabby clutch, and anemic little motor. Plus you could tip the damn thing over if you weren’t careful. A liability nightmare.

      Omg that would be so amazing if you did wear the mask out to avoid covid LOL. Hey if nothing else you could wear it for Halloween and nobody will bat an eyelash.

    So the daughter of Alexander Dugin was blown up yesterday, 20 miles from Moscow.

    Seems rather important.

      Sounds like a major international incident. And yet crickets from the MSM.

      • BackRowHeckler August 21, 2022 at 11:30 pm #

        Russia will be wanting to settle scores, for this assassination, for American made missiles slamming into Crimea, and for many other things. I think at this point a NATO-Russia confrontation is inevitable — and could easily lead to the use of tactical nuclear weapons.

        The main criticism in the western media of the woman blown up is that she is the daughter of a prominent nationalist and is a Russian patriot in her own right. Her assassination could easily be this era’s ‘Emperor Franz Ferdinand’ moment.

          Welp. They needed one, didn’t they?

    JAZ…Q is a shtikler, let’s face it.

    Meanwhile, thanks for giving at least a head nod to the falling price of oil.

    And let’s not forget the Guardians. I shall cherish my Chief Yahoo fanny cushion forever and might even haul it out and wave it at a spring training game in the desert SW. Pretend you don’t know me.

      You’re so weird tom lol. You’re not exactly that special so you won’t be doing that ok. But you can wear your hawaiian shirt if you insist. You don’t want to scare John off. You’ll be considered awkward silly.

      That might get ya arrested, tc. The Kansas City Chiefs would logically seem to be on the target list eventually too. I’m surprised the wokesters haven’t attacked sports teams’ names across the board yet.

    BTW, and FYI, an Abbott swab test is not a PCR test.

    Quite apart from what anyone thinks of the tests themselves

    Looks like Teflon Don is going to turn the tables on the DOJ using a supreme court ruling from the Clinton era!

    Biden regime and DOJ are about to get bad news.

    My 75 year old aunt texted me last night to tell me she and my uncle tested positive for Covid. I drove to their house at 12:30 AM and dropped off Ivermectin pills, HCQ, zinc, and Quercetin. She told me today her fever came down and that I may have saved her life. Uncle is feeling great. This is considered a negative outcome by the cabal. They would prefer my family dead. Their evil is no longer a theory and very much a reality. You can get your ivm by visiting getmeivm.com
