The very fine people of the Progressive Left believe many things: that men can be women (and mostly should be); that two plus two should equal how you feel, not the same darn thing every time; that “Joe Biden” is not just president but the greatest one since Barack Obama (and the 2020 election proved it). The very fine people on the Left don’t believe in a couple of things: reality and the law. This is getting to be a problem in what’s left of the USA.
Reality, you might think, works in strange ways, such as the idea of rent. It grows out of another idea that happens to underlie law: property. Property is owning something. Granted, it has a certain suspicious artificiality, since you must surrender it to others (usually relatives) when you depart this world. And granted, it is not exactly fair, since some people will own more property than other people. But it has many functional benefits in the greater artificial construct sometimes called civilized society.
Property permits people to thrive, and not necessarily at the expense of other people. If I come to own a house through hard work, thrift, and prudent management of my resources; and if I rent out the second floor to you at a price you are willing to pay (while you work hard and manage your resources); then that bargain succeeds in allocating the “good” called a place to live. Granted, there are some people who make bad bargains (and some people who offer them), but there are many who are satisfied with paying for a place to live, and accept it as a condition of participating in that thing called civilized society, with its many benefits.
By the way, the property-owner designated as “landlord” has payment obligations too: property taxes, the cost of fixing all the goshdarn things that wear out: roofs, plumbing, the paint, etc. Often this landlord has a mortgage on his building, which works as a kind of rent. If the government, which is an instrument of civilized society, suspends rent payments indefinitely, then a certain percentage of property owners are going to lose their property one way or another due to not paying the cost of ownership.
As that occurs, a chain of non-payments begins to disrupt the whole system by which the “good” called a place to live is allocated, and then fewer people have a place to live which renders them…homeless. The very fine people of the Progressive Left, who hold the levers of power these days in the executive branch of the instrument called government, have decided that eighteen months of suspended rent payments during a “national emergency” is not enough. Now, it happens that the branch called the Supreme Court decided otherwise in June. But the very fine fellow, “Joe Biden,” purported to be leader of the very fine people of the Progressive Left who run things, has decided to nullify the judgment of the Supreme Court because… well, because he feels like it. And because who is going to stop him? (Echo answers.)
Of course, the very fine people of the Progressive Left also believe in a new and pretty sexy idea (female-style sexy, actually) called Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). This theory states that the people in charge can borrow money to pay for anything that they want to make happen, and that the debt does not have to ever be paid back. One thing they might want to make happen is to bail out everyone involved in the rent moratorium fiasco — the renters burdened by accumulated non-payments, and then the broke landlords, and, gosh, even the holders of the mortgages that have been securitized, bundled, and sold as bonds to hedge funds, pension funds, and banks. MMT, therefore, will make everything right when the national emergency finally ends, and all concerned can just pick up where they left off before the emergency started and make a fresh start.
This experiment has only partly played out. So far, borrowing trillions of dollars that will never have to be paid back hasn’t hurt anybody. In other words, so far so good! At some point we may need to revisit exactly what we mean when we use the word debt. After all, it implies some kind of function, some relationship, between borrowing and repayment, and if repayment is no longer required then maybe this mechanism is not what we think it is. What could it be then? The very fine people might call it “economic justice.” But will that make it work? (By which I mean, continue to function.) I guess we’ll just have to see.
Now, the very fine president “Joe Biden” has appointed a very fine fellow named Merrick Garland to be Attorney General of the civilized society called the USA. Mr. Garland is chief enforcement officer of federal law. He attended the very fine Harvard Law School, but he apparently missed the seminar course in constitutional law titled Advanced Issues in Administrative Law and Theory. Mr. Garland has been sending letters to officers of the Arizona state government threatening to punish and even imprison anyone in that state who moves further to investigate the balloting results and the conduct of the 2020 election in that jurisdiction. Mr. Garland, having missed that crucial course (above), is apparently unaware that the US constitution assigns authority over elections to each state — with the reserve clause that the US Congress can legislate changes to that order of things, which they haven’t done.
Therefore, Mr. Garland is out-of-order. Will he actually move to interfere with an effort currently underway in the state of Arizona to conduct a full forensic investigation of the 2020 vote? Elected officials of that state have counter-threatened to throw Mr. Garland’s very fine ass in an Arizona jail if he attempts to interfere. Meanwhile the forensic investigators of said election hired by the Arizona State Senate have completed phase one of their task, close examination of the paper ballots, and are moving on to phases two and three: canvassing street addresses from which mail-in ballots originated, and full examination of the Dominion vote-tallying machines.
There is reason to suppose that the investigation will reach conclusions that might distress the very fine people of the Progressive Left who maintain that the 2020 election was the “most secure in history” — that is, without any significant errors. If that were so, why would they hesitate to examine the evidence? Might it raise questions that would be difficult to answer, for instance: what to do if very large errors happen to be discovered? Is it an affront to their very fine-ness? Is the US government not fit to manage such a result? Or are the people of this land not resourceful or fair-minded enough to work through such a development? It will be interesting to find out.

We live under a government that thinks fantasy is a suitable replacement for reality. Their approach to paying for things demonstrates a very fine disregard for common sense.
The eventual financial collapse we face will give new meaning to the word “epic.”
No worse than the average normie.
The other day, I had a normie explain to me how, “The Secret of NIMH,” was a good model for rodent living habits.
Huh?
? Wow…
We. Are. Doomed. :
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9869633/Woke-Virginia-kindergarten-shares-radical-video-saying-feel-safe-no-police.html
SAFE. They all want to feel SAFE.
Just like we were promised to be kept safe from Muslims, until a new threat arrived.
But by all means everyone must be kept SAFE all the time. Is Ki gonna keep kids SAFE from scraping their knees or falling off the monkey bars?
https://www.fsmb.org/advocacy/news-releases/fsmb-spreading-covid-19-vaccine-misinformation-may-put-medical-license-at-risk/
FSMB: SPREADING COVID-19 VACCINE MISINFORMATION MAY PUT MEDICAL LICENSE AT RISK
WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 29, 2021) – The Federation of State Medical Boards’ Board of Directors released the following statement in response to a dramatic increase in the dissemination of COVID-19 vaccine misinformation and disinformation by physicians and other health care professionals on social media platforms, online and in the media:
“Physicians who generate and spread COVID-19 vaccine misinformation or disinformation are risking disciplinary action by state medical boards, including the suspension or revocation of their medical license. Due to their specialized knowledge and training, licensed physicians possess a high degree of public trust and therefore have a powerful platform in society, whether they recognize it or not. They also have an ethical and professional responsibility to practice medicine in the best interests of their patients and must share information that is factual, scientifically grounded and consensus-driven for the betterment of public health. Spreading inaccurate COVID-19 vaccine information contradicts that responsibility, threatens to further erode public trust in the medical profession and puts all patients at risk.”
Must be “consensus driven?” Wow.
Majority rules medical advice. Sooo democratic! 🙁
People need to get over “Safe”.
Life is a risk.
There is no “Safe”. However, an individual is free to make decisions and choices which increase what I’ll call margin of safety.
Others choose riskier behavior, thus experiencing potential safety decrease.
Still others are in occupations with increased risk, a choice. This opens up calculated risk, such as the occupation has risk (risk to include death). The person calculates and then accepts the risk.
Other people are in relatively safe occupations, and shit happens.
Shit is always waiting to happen.
There is no “Safe”.
Speaking of fantasy, that any audit will result in anything different is a fantasy. The Supreme Court was just ignored – so the PTB are taking their disregard and double-standards for the rule of law prime-time with no veiling of their intent. After all, this is the party of “by any means necessary”.
And why would they hide their intent anymore nor follow the law? They own the MSM, academia and the school board unions where they can indoctrinate this dribble into future generations, the AMA, they’re rooting out the military of the common-sense-non-woke (essentially anyone who hasn’t fallen for the neomarxist con and isn’t on board with tyranny). They have their unchecked brownshirts to neutralize and weed out good police and replace them with woke police.
They have Big Tech willingly censoring dissent, banks ready to shut down access to banking, employers ready to fire you for wrong-think or not taking a vaccine. They can win whatever election they want to from now on no matter the results.
They can justify any tyranny they want because they claim to have the moral high ground and are fighting against a cartoonish albeit imaginary white-supremacist-domestic-terrorist-insurgent enemy (which they can label anyone who dares question anything), and they operate more like a fundamentalist religion than a political party.
Well said and written. Bravo!
Oops! Should have said brava? I dunno. Either way, well done!
Seconded.
And this is why right-thinking, freedom-loving people need to wriggle out of and work around their Beast system.
Andrew Torba of Gab is doing a lot of good work in this regard.
The only remedy for this level of tyranny, driven by fantasy, is the application kinetic energy in the form of Pb.
Couldn’t agree more. If someone will only lead the way with lead.
True that. No white hats coming. Freedom is never given.. it is taken.
Exactly ….. @unperson37854
Yes, incredibly well said.
OMG, must see (hear) podcast: Quoth the Raven #260, with the inimitable Dave Columbia
https://youtu.be/t8uWJjUsyVQ
Stupid fucking autocorrect! Dave Collum, Columbia (though he graduated from Columbia University)
Oy! Not Columbia!
The usual deluded crap…’they’ are doing all manner of terrible things to “us”, who are ‘awake’ to the “woke agenda”. Yawn…you’re all setting yourselves up as a new ‘victimhood’ cohort, and frankly it’d be laughable if it wasn’t so pathetic.
Please watch this Key West doctor who treated Lou Gossett, Jr. with Ivermectin plus hundreds of other patients on the weekly FLCCC update:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aP-ncHI1M8k
Please share.
This could be the tipping point with therapeutic Ivermectin, Covid19 and other viruses.
The funny thing is that I was referred to this site/blog by a great man, a few years ago, who is the poster-child for left-ocracy in Kalifornia. He’s always supported any agenda from the left regardless reason… even though he earned an MS in Physics and was instrumental in birthing the internet. He’s a member of the “I support fixing the world” crowd. Doesn’t know how, just that he need to fix it and he knows how: Socialism.
The sad thing is that he won’t let go of his emotional attachment to this string of contradictions to his erstwhile common sense.
And, when I challenged someone 60 years younger bragging about the “free” lunch regarding the actual payment source… Similar deaf ears.
It’s not just the young and pliable… it’s all that chase farting unicorns…
Think Mayans…. I do, all too often.

I think a lot of people were followers of the PC religion, without knowing it was their religion.
Ever notice know one talks about PC anymore? It’s taken as a given.
Excellent point Beryl.
What jarred me out of going in that direction years ago when I was a blogger, was when a fellow blogger criticized a comment I left on her blog. The sin? Calling John McCain “McLame”.
“This is an insult to the disabled,” she said.
That was probably 13 years ago, and it’s gone from PC to SJW to Wokie and who knows what the next iteration will be.
Currently you can’t work or train at most US hospitals unless you are vexed. Staff members and clinical students must receive the vaccines, as a condition of employment and training; this includes faculty members who work in Health Professions at University hospitals.
https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/workforce/hospitals-health-systems-mandating-vaccines-for-workersjune17.html
Mandating an experimental vaccine for virtually everyone on the planet is not “science” based on “consensus”, it is something much darker, like an orchestrated mass casualty event used to disguise the theft of all property and rights from the masses.
What’s next? Something unimaginable.
Sorry for the autocorrect . . . vaxxed, not vexed, although it is quite vexing lol.
Wizard of the Saddle thoughtfully wrote “We live under a government that thinks fantasy is a suitable replacement for reality.”
The term for this condition is “cultural pseudoscience.” It describes the product of the CNN/MSNBC/NYTimes/WashPo media complex. It has strong social implications. See the following work:
Private Truths, Public Lies: The Social Consequences of Preference Falsification by Timur Kuran.
https://www.amazon.com/Private-Truths-Public-Lies-Falsification-dp-0674707583/dp/0674707583/ref=mt_other?_encoding=UTF8&me=&qid=1628267731
In a nutshell, preference falsification, according to the economist Timur Kuran, is the act of misrepresenting one’s wants under perceived social pressures. But of course, common sense tells us this already. The book merely explores it from a social science perspective.
Wizard, hear hear, but I hope that by “their approach” you mean both D & R.
I used to own rental property. Thank God I don’t any more!
I’m an attorney and I just got off a telephonic calendar call hearing. About 90% of the cases were foreclosure cases. The judge commented that what the folks in Washington have done (imposing moratoria on foreclosures) was patently illegal, but he had no choice but to obey. So all the banks are getting stiffed while the landlords are unable to pay, while the tenants get to live in the property rent-free. I suspect most of the landlords will be unable to bring their mortgages current after 18 months without rent, so they will lose their properties. Meanwhile, the tenants get to live free for a year and a half. Isn’t that a taking of property without compensation? We call that inverse condemnation in Florida and it is actionable.
So we now know that owning rental property is not worth the trouble, because the federal government can just tell the renters they can’t be evicted for non-payment. This country has gone completely down the tubes.
“In the future, you will own nothing. And you will be happy.”
The way I read it was there was also the statement,
‘you will have no privacy’.
I wonder if Israel will collapse, due to illness and deaths from the jab? And other countries where most people got the shot.
I know someone with an Israeli relative. The man died soon after getting the shot.
Does anyone know what Richard Trumka died from, yet?
Going out on a short limb here – My guess is a sudden cardiopulmonary event precipitated by receiving a life-saving “vaccine”.
When they don’t put a cause of death for days for high visibility deaths, I think it’s obvious it’s either suicide, being suicided or the jab.
Wikipedia mentions “an apparent heart attack”. My guess is that the man was significantly over weight, judging by his pictures on the Internet.
On the CDC’s own list of known side effects of the “vaccines” is “Vaccine Disease Acceleration”, i.e., accelerating existing conditions.
Yes, Trumpka did appear to be overweight, but could vaccination have accelerated his condition, accelerated a heart attack?
Personally, I’ve seen anecdotal evidence of “disease acceleration” in close family & friends – all vaccinated – ones you’d expect to be around for at least a few years – but gone in months. Accelerated? I think so.
Of course it’s my bias, but I think the association is there. Look around. Anyone see any similar circumstances?
Edit: Trumka, not Trumpka. Freudian? Maybe.
Israel and Australia have reported that 95 to 99 percent of current hospitalizations with “Covid” are patients who took the shot.
Thus proving, once again, that the vaccine is the variant. That’s why they want a shot in every arm, to keep this plandemic going.
They also need to get rid of the healthy control group.
That may very well be true, but the more obvious point that is staring us in the face is the control grid.
In Germany, the Bundestag is now toying with the idea of making the unjabbed have to get a EUR 25 Covid test (explains why Soros and Gates just bought up many of the testing companies), in order to enter a supermarket come fall.
This confirms what some of us already knew: they mean to push out anyone who wont take the poison.
But the catch for the poisoned is, they have to keep taking it. The electric control grid is the goal. Make no doubt about it. No buying or selling unless your digital wallet is up to date in all areas. This will also include access to the Internet.
The Covid Hoax is the Trojan horse to get everyone in the system.
BTW, Mary:
Check it out.

“Revelation 13:15-17
New International Version
15 The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.”
We’re not there — yet — but TPTB seem intent upon making this come true, whether anyone likes ot or not. How comforting.

Your comment about about covid in Israel is very misleading.
From the above article: “And a Health Ministry study of data from January to July concluded that even vaccinated people with preexisting diseases are better protected against serious illness than unvaccinated people of the same age with no preexisting conditions.”
Israel has begun to roll out booster shots (3rd vaccine) for people over 60.
Dr. Kobi Haviv on Israel’s Channel 13:
“95% of the severe patients are vaccinated”.
“85-90% of the hospitalizations are in Fully vaccinated people.”
“We are opening more and more COVID wards.”
“The effectiveness of the vaccine is waning/fading out

Try again, Carghoul.
@Night Owl, wow. OK well, I guess I can be glad I’m barking up the right tree?
WTF, indeed!
So yes they need to get rid of the control group. And yes, this is a way to get everyone in the grid. I won’t be tested or jabbed. Mexico is looking better all the time.
Oh? I dispute your numbers.

@ malthuss
Two guys in their 30’s just died of heart attacks in Israel. Nothing about whether they had been jabbed or not. Heart attacks in otherwise healthy 30 year olds is pretty rare- 2 in a week or so!
I think that TPTB and MSM is so intent on adhering to the party line that the vaxes are great and we all need to get them that they won’t seek out any info that puts them in a bad light.
“… Communism doesn’t work. It’s against a basic law of nature: “people want to own stuff.” – Frank Zappa
Coming soon to a theatre near you, “Un Cirque des Horreurs”.
Oh, how I wish Zappa was still here! Even very old Zappa. Chomsky is still commenting.
Zappa left the building at a most opportune moment. Couldn’t have had better timing (he was a musician, after all). With those attitudes, freely-expressed, he would have been canceled the way a bug is squashed.
Hot Plate Heaven at the Green Hotel
I used to have a job and I was doing very well.
Depression came along and everybody start to yell.
‘Where’d they go, them good ol’ days, and all that crap we used to sell?
Now I’m in hot-plate heaven at the green hotel.
Republicans is fine if you’re a multi-millionaire.
Democrats is fair, if all you own is what you wear.
Neither of ’em’s really right, ’cause neither of ’em care
About that hot-plate heaven, ’cause they ain’t been there.
They really oughta go and find out how the hall-way smell.
They’d benefit to know ’bout what the bums in there could tell.
Of course we’re only dreaming but I suppose it’s just as well.
That’s all you get to dream up in the green hotel.
Nature didn’t put me here and neither did my fate.
It must have been some mean ol’ Republican candidate.
He’s over here in Washington but I wish he was in hell.
‘Cause I’m in hot-plate heaven at the green hotel
Things is slightly better now, they hope we will forget
The misery of ‘trickle down’ and jelly-bean etiquette.
The regal presidential style has simply not worn well,
And neither has my rags up in the green hotel.
I said the Green Hotel
(I mean) the Green Hotel
(Been there once) the Green Hotel
(An’ gone again) the Green Hotel
Neither has my rags
Up in the Green Hotel
Pass me the dog food!

“I’m the slime oozing out from your TV set”
Don’t worry, Lawfish. Blackrock will pick up the slack.
And own most of it all. And when they do, they’ll certainly be enforcing the grossly inflated rent (not mortgage, mind you) they impose on those who now need a new home in which to live. It’s theirs. Not yours.
JHK nailed it – they are making millions of people homeless by temporarily keeping millions of people from being homeless. Doublethink is a powerful thing.
Yup. Another master stroke by the dems. They lose maybe one landlord but gain all their tenants’ votes. “Badges!?! We don’t need no stinking badges!”
“The judge commented that what the folks in Washington have done (imposing moratoria on foreclosures) was patently illegal, but he had no choice but to obey.”
Can you elaborate on why the Judge had no choice but to obey?
No choice? only because that particular judge thought so. From other recent articles on the internet today I found, with respect to this week’s re-imposition of an invalid rent moratorium: Barbara Peck, a spokeswoman for the Tennessee state court system, said Wednesday that lawyers for courts in her state had “advised that it is not applicable in Tennessee.”
Two large Ohio court systems on Thursday issued conflicting decisions regarding the new moratorium.
“Can you elaborate on why the Judge had no choice but to obey?”
Pete,
…How many divisions does the judge have?
Judge is both a noun and a verb.
The noun may have had no choice, but the verb is all about choice.
I have no idea what you’re getting at asking me about ‘divisions,’ I was merely asking the poster why they thought the Judge had no choice.
I would assert they did have a choice, and they made a choice when they ‘judged.’
Pete,
Eventually, the power of a judge, or anyone else, is the capacity to visit violence, in one form or another, on an adversary of whatever form.
..How many divisions does the Pope have? J. Stalin
Meanwhile, the people who own the place they live in got no break on the taxes they had to pay to the local government and school district, even as the government and school district quit performing many of the services we were paying for.
I’m all for vouchers. Do the math, what does it cost per child, give the parents a voucher, they choose the education system/model which best suits their particular circumstance.
The successful education models will attract the voucher payments. The parents are free to choose systems which exceed the voucher amount, paying the difference out of their own pocket.
Isn’t that a taking of property without compensation? The USA has done that repeatedly in its history and the USSC has ratified it. Consider the 1933 abrogation of previously legal so-called “gold clauses” in pre-existing contracts and the ~1942 dispossession and imprisonment of American citizens (“Japs” in other words), both of which were ratified by the USSC. AFAICT neither of those decisions have ever been formally reversed.
And now Blackrock, et al will move in and buy up all the said properties, perhaps along with that fine biz outfit called the ccp. Gone down the tubes is an understatement.
There is a solution, however. Its called se·ces·sion, followed by CW2.
We are on the same page regarding the solution, Doc. But Alabama is full of sensible and realistic people who can read the handwriting on the wall.
Now, we just need another 25 or so sensible states and we can bring down the curtain on this Woke circus act.
You are correct regarding the solution.
It will not be easy because I fully expect the Wokesters to invite the PLA/PLAN/PLAAF to, “help,” with any CW2 scenario.
Secession is the only solution, and as you suggest, it will be probably be accompanied by a large slice of violence. The psychopaths in DC won’t tolerate the only defiant bits of America breaking away from them. The idea that Humpty Dumpty America can be put back together again by voting is ludicrous.
This was as orchestrated as was Blackrock buying up entire neighborhoods, and also the gentrification that ensued after BLM conveniently burned down specific areas of large cities.
Ding, ding, ding, ding! Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
“Build Back Better”
“Black (rock) Lives Matter”
Yup.
Catharine Austin Fitts did some great reporting on how targeted last summer’s unrest was.
She sure did. Disturbing to see it in reality. Southeast Minneapolis and Uptown are largely wrecked and vacated, at least as far as viable businesses.
Bet those buildings are being bought up or foreclosed upon on the cheap. And not by people. By banks.
That is my prediction.
MQ,
“and also the gentrification that ensued after BLM conveniently burned down specific areas of large cities.”
Per Catherine Austin Fitts (I think he mentions this in her Corona Ausschuss interview) the arson (let’s just call it that) was primarily along major corridors where new 5G infrastructure is planned.
That doesn’t surprise me at all.
A friend owns 3 rent houses and so far they’ve been current with the rent. When I was talking to her the other day, I asked her what she would do if they took advantage of the moratorium — would she still have to pay property taxes, be responsible for maintenance, etc? Yes, was the answer.
Do you think this might be some back door scheme to bankrupt small property owners to sell cheap to large real-estate holding companies?
No real winners in this situation OTHER than the large RE holding companies. Many, if not most landlords are only a single economic rung above the people they rent to. What to do when the money runs out and NO ONE has the ability to pay? And its not like creating homeless people has no consequences either. I think Jim might have been a little quick to judge on this one.
Who did he judge?
Biden on the rent moratorium which he only extended under pressure until October anyway. That really only amounts to just more kicking the can, the usual practice in DC when it comes to budget issues. Renters will eventually be evicted anyway with no monetary backstop, and then we’ll have a new problem to fix, which is homeless people camping out in the streets. Local economies certainly won’t be coming back with all this COVID nonsense, so that doesn’t leave much, other than internment camps. That’ll be a good look for a supposed “first world country.”
D – a *new* problem to fix?
A few years back I had a guy who was slack on the rent. He would not answer my calls. I simply messed with his hot water heater. It’s uncomfortable with no hot water. I ignored his calls for a couple days. When I answered I said I could look at it soon but what about the rent. He agreed to pay up. Back then he could withhold rent for that but now a days if no one pays what can they do? No hot water for you!
SEF – awesome, if tenants pay rent, they are entitled to “quiet enjoyment” of the property. If not, they’re entitled to cold water, but not for too long – a week tops.
The points you bring up are well-taken and go directly to the issues.
I can’t say I have much concern regarding the banks getting stiffed. I differentiate banks from the credit unions and similar local operations.
The big banks will end up owning the properties in question, which is a power move in my opinion. Maintaining the present trajectory will result in banks becoming the only housing game in town, thus making the rules pertaining to where and how people can live. The general population, being made serfs, will be the tenants living in some manner of servitude.
Regarding inverse condemnation, the court system would need to function without co-optation.
Last time around, banks got bailouts, but for some reason they kept the properties.
Can landlords add vaccination clauses to their leases?
Yikes. Sure, why not…
I guess that’s what they mean by a spike in rents.
My guess it will soon be a requirement to get this seal.
We can’t have Bob DeNiro feeling unsafe.

What a douche that guy turned out to be.
He’s always been a dick.
I thought Walensky and the CDC were in charge of non-payment of rents and so on?
They seem to be in control of our lives now, so why not where we live?
Yep. She came along tonight to read a bed time story to my kids and tuck them up all nice and snug. What would we do without the wonderful CDC!
I’ve paid my bills through this whole thing, not without occasional difficulty, to be sure. If I suddenly fall short, can I start the clock on my 18 months of not paying bills when that day comes?
Doubtful. This is a clown show…basically arbitrary. And fair to the very few.
I pay my bills too, but, really, why? Why don’t I stiff everybody? Buy gold, guns and gallons. Why not? Who, exactly, would I be hurting?
Well, the chickens will roost at some point, and for very many, who are hoping the game goes on forever.
I can’t imagine being $26k behind on rent/mortgage, especially if I had spent that money on ammo and water (and ordering in Chipotle and Popeye’s every day) in the meantime.
What are the odds that it won’t slap a lot of people hard in the face, and soon? Families kicked out…cuz let’s not forget, goodbye emergency unemployment payments next month, folks!
Granted, I’m not saying survival supplies aren’t also a priority in my household…
When they do go to court any judgement for back rent will follow them to their grave.
I’m talking about right now. Like I said, I pay (and have paid) my bills. But why, at this point, should I continue? CHUMPITUDE
coming soon.section 8 vouchers for “special demographics” in my decent suburban neighborhood that i just moved into after i moved out of the center of a certain great plains city to get away from possible wrong verdict derek chauvin trial blm/white woke riots.probably not quick and dramatic but slow rot.must have humane accomodations for our newest americans pouring over the southern border.
Those with student loans were able to stop making payments for the duration, without accruing interest or penalties.
Here’s my question:
If someplace like BlackRock (once the government is finished shaking loose the last rental properties from other hands for their benefit) is liking to get zero interest loans to buy up foreclosed property, why are the people struggling to pay off student loans not allowed to get a zero interest loan to pay their student loans off with?
Once they get behind, many people find themselves unable to ever pay loans off.
Every once in a while some dumbass on the Demcrat side starts yammering about loan forgiveness.
This gets people screaming about unfairness, but it also keeps the government from actually having to do anything about the student loan debt issue.
Fixing it so borrowers are actually capable of paying it off would be a good first step.
…why are the people struggling to pay off student loans not allowed to get a zero interest loan to pay their student loans off with?
Those with the real wealth in this world used to take a “haircut” in times of national crisis. I think they may be done with accepting that notion for the greater good.
MrMango – Bingo.
Beryl – this also takes a shot at answering your question.
Just like the real estate securitized mortgage pools of roughly 2004 thru 2008, known as MBS (mortgage-backed securities), funded by underlying bondholders, the exact same racket was employed for Student Loans.
They have been packaged into SLABS (student loan asset-backed securities) backed by investor bonds. As MrMango says, these bondholders will not take a haircut. They’ll get their pound of flesh from our kids, and we’ll pick up any balances due.
Economic cannibalism is one thing, but eating your young is something entirely different – evil about covers it.
I could see it unfolding early on, and told anyone who would listen (college students & parents) it was a debt trap.
JHK has done a great service in exposing the criminal enterprise thorough his writing, interviews & podcasts – many thanks again Jim.
Haircut-refusing bondholders will be bailed out by us, as is typical in these criminal enterprises.
Here’s my original and still lingering question: Why would anyone (bondholders) invest in an “asset-backed” security with ZERO collateral? There is no asset – will they repo diplomas?
They knew we’d bail them out – a zero risk investment for “The Club”, as they all are. F**king criminals, enslaving our kids.
Open to help in the zero collateral question – many here smarter than I am.
(even though they usually made out like bandits in the aftermath anyway)
JUBILEE
Doc – I surmised this – jubilee – back in February 2020, as a possible lever for COVID.
A jubilee, for which a vast majority would applaud, would usher in the new currency – a wholesale change overnight.
Lately I’ve been thinking, it may be the final ace – the final inducement – for the unvaxxed to consent.
Donuts to movie tickets to $100 to JUBILEE – another good reason to hold out!
Meanwhile, the property is not being maintained.
It doesn’t take long for a property to fall apart without steady maintenance.
If some power entity declares that the civilian does not have to pay for anything, everything between the civilian and the power entity is rendered useless and eventually swept away. You then have a two-tier system that is utterly unlike the fine-grained society that formerly existed.
Three tiers:
Priesthood
Warrior/nobility
Peasant
Law, use it now, pay for it… never. Isn’t that MMT as JHK explains it?
That’s alright, remember the banks were bailed out in 2008/2009 to the tune of trillions, so they aren’t too bad off I wouldn’t say, it seems what goes around comes around and then the crying begins, because the shoe is on the other foot. Guess we should have paid attention years ago, but we didn’t, and it’s going to get a whole lot worse and perhaps never get any better and that’s just the way it is.
This is part of the “disaster capitalism” plan for the banksters to “own everything”
First, release a bioweapon and shut down the economies eveywhere.
Lockdowns drive a huge percentage of small business into bankruptcy.
Allow looting and rioting to take place in the Main Street areas where many of these small businesses were located. Unable to do business or do repairs, the properties come up for sale at bargain basement prices. Meanwhile, put a moratorium on rent, so that those who own rental properties wind up going bankrupt. More properties for sale cheap.
Meanwhile, print/create trillions of digital dollars that are handed out at zero percent interest to hedge funds, large financial conglomerates, who then use the trillions to buy up everything. Seen the Federal Reserve balance sheet lately? LOL
When the inevitable financial/currency collapse occurs . . . then ban cash and make it all digital money that the state and central banks control. The total fascist state courtesy of the oligarchs who will own everything and they will be happy,.
So after listening to the last podcast (or maybe 2 ago) where there was talk about where to live and waterways were a great place. I wanted to ask some of the guys around here places they thought were good. I live in Colorado and I feel like this is a lost cause, politically etc. Costs are sky high, and water is running out.
I had considered northern Idaho, and most recently the northern great lakes area around Michigan/Wisconsin/Minnesota, cheap and a lot of land. I know it can be cold, but I am far better in the cold than the heat of the south.
are you a farmer?
Take it from James and go to a waterway region. I’m from Central New York (Seneca River). If I had the money I would find a place in the Finger Lakes and grow wine grapes and apples for cider. My wife is a racehorse trainer here in Maryland. Her skills and long experience will be in high demand someday soon. Yeehaw!
Although ages ago, I found myself unable to choke down a glass of Finger Lakes wine while visiting a waterfall(?) park there.
Please stick to making preserves with those grapes 😉
Microclimate vineyards there are making excellent wines.
Might be worth revisiting to find some of these viniculture gems.
Bon appétit!
I’ll take your word for it
Yeah, that too and so much more. It’s a fertile and diverse ecosystem up there. Winters were a bitch years ago, but not soul crushing these days
I remember a matriarchal figure along for the excursion, she strikes me now as that Downton Abbey character: mannered, snobbish, elegant, sneering.
She had “let” the bottle fall on its side. As the contents gurgled out onto some mossy rocks, she exclaimed that she did not want to place the bottle upright for fear of getting the contents on her hands.
Many chortles followed.
SENECA WHITE DEER
Just off the eastern shore of Seneca Lake lies the former Seneca Army Depot, home to the largest herd of white deer in existence. The herd began as a group of fenced in brown, white-tail deer, but over time an all-white recessive gene began to manifest itself and dominate the herd. Today the white deer population within the 24 miles of fence is over 200 strong and is the result of careful monitoring and protection. Now the deer are protected through conservation efforts and public donations.
To learn more about how you can help view and protect this unique natural resource visit http://www.senecawhitedeer.org
Oh no! No more tours!
I was ready to get in the car.
I still want to visit a couple of places that feature white squirrels.
Lots of black squirrels in my yard. They loot my bird feeder constantly.
St Elmo,
Take one of those giant water rifles to your squirrels. So much fun.
The squirrels here (red) destroyed my first bird feeder so I got a squirrel-proof one. They still manage to get some seeds out of it. I just put sunflower seeds in dishes for them, and it all works out.
Finally registered after reading for years………
The worst thing about Upstate is the “poverty Inducing” Taxes..
Some of the highest in the nation now……
Little towns, no tax base, six and a half million acres of state owned forest, school taxes thru the roof………
No hope in sight
Absolutely Beautiful country !!!! Yates county, where I reside at the moment, Has The Largest, Concentration of, 40 to 60 cow dairy’s, in the continental US (Most all Mennonites)
Because of it, Yates county is flourishing !!!
The Main thing Upstate has going for it, one of the most Important things…………
Water.
It comes out of the sides of the hills, artesian aquifers abound, rivers and of coarse the Finger lakes themselves
Pretty important commodity for sure
@ WilbursHuman – Thanks for the info & welcome.
It’s truly blessed, upstate. Everything you need for a scaled back locally based society. Yes, NY State taxes are very high, but they won’t be high for long, IMO.
I am in the FL region.
The most productive agricultural land in NY state is immediately to the West of the Finger Lakes themselves.
“the northern great lakes area around Michigan/Wisconsin/Minnesota, cheap” The nice places are not cheap by any means. Native tribes in those areas often have trouble hiring sufficient staff due to high rents in their areas. They haven’t figured out that they may have to provide housing for the workers if they wish to get enough help. I personally know one native who was offered a decent paying job by a tribal administration but insisted on being provided housing due to high local costs. No housing was offered and she did not take the job.
That is something that people don’t talk about much, that has a big effect on what I guess you would call the economy.
I personally know of people who took what they were calling the right kind of college courses, and had the right kind of degrees, that would get them hired by the right employers.
Then they found that due to factors like a government engineered real estate bubble and crash, that the places they had to relocate to for what looked like good pay, were so expensive to live in that paying back the loans they took to get the “right” degrees became harder and harder.
I see know in the MSM, suggestions that home ownership isn’t a good idea anyway, we should be more like Grapes of Wrath, ready to pick up and go.
Spot on correct on all points.
Thank you.
Beryl,
“I see know in the MSM, suggestions that home ownership isn’t a good idea anyway, we should be more like Grapes of Wrath, ready to pick up and go.’
If it’s in the MSM, I would be skeptical. Home ownership has always seemed like an excellent idea to Americans.
Why would that change now?
I would not want to be dependent on the kindness of strangers (landlords, and now the gummint getting into it!) when it comes to a roof over my head.
In fact, biggest mistake I made was selling the nice little cottage I had. Am currently looking for another.
If you need to get a mortgage, I guess that is something else. But if you can find a congenial place with some land I would prefer that anyday to renting.
I don’t quite buy Jim’s (and others’) take that if you have a mortgage you don’t really own your home. Technically, yes, I suppose. But if you have a balance on your credit card, does that mean you don’t own what you bought on credit? Not really, unless someone really wants to send a repo person to repossess your . . . groceries? clothing? Assuming you pay your mortgage, you have control over your life and your property when you own.
Within New England, there is lots of space in Maine and prices are lower than in southern New England.
Cold in the winter, but near the ocean.
I agree that being near a major waterway is a very nice idea.
For the soul. All rivers run to the sea . . .
But not in the flood zone.
I agree with Jim that we may well see a huge internal migration from the dry West to the wet East. When/If that happens I think I want to be sitting pretty on my own property.
You never really own your home . The city/town does. Stop paying property taxes and see what happens to “your” home.
Most consumer debt (credit cards) is unsecured. Nothing obtained that way is repossessible. I’d rather own than rent my home, but I gotta know I can defend it. If not, I’d rather have movable wealth and firearms plus ammunition, of course. All depends on all, and rapid change is the byword.
stelmo
Why would I refuse to pay property tax?
Actually the town could place lien on my property but I don’t think the town can “repossess” it.
This just sounds silly to me.
If you can’t defend your property maybe you think you’ll do better “defending” the camper, or car, or tent, in which you are “living.”
Home ownership isn’t a good idea…right now. We just have to wait til 2/3rds to 3/4ths of the vaccinated drop dead. Then there’ll be plenty of cheap housing. I’m sorry to sound so callous but I do think that’s where we’re headed. We know from various credible sources that the spike protein in the vaccines is cytotoxic and that it does not stay at the injection site: it travels through the bloodstream creating micro-clots in the veins and organs. The elites are trying to save the planet and one of their ‘levers’ [thanks to Chris Martensen for this metaphor] to accomplish this is to eliminate as many of us as they can. I recently saw a clip from a video in which Prince Charles (part of the WEF/ Davos crowd) was arguing that we need to stop growing so much food because it’s bad for the planet. His father, Prince Philip, famously said he wanted to come back as a lethal virus to ‘help’ with de-population. The globalists are not hiding their agenda.
I sure hope you’re wrong, Alice. If true, how insidious and horrifying. Chris is a cagey podcaster, and I often wonder how long he’ll be accessible, cuz all he does is find the truth. He seems to have hope, but you’re not so sanguine?
Beryl, “we should be more like Grapes of Wrath, ready to pick up and go” ain’t that the truth, maybe not so much for a house, but for life itself.
That’s a step back in time. The coal companies owned houses on their property and rented them to their miners. Rent came out of their “pay.” The balance was paid in script they could spend only at the company store, and the prices were considerably jacked up. My husband grew up in a house owned by the coal company. There was no running water or bathroom. On Saturday night his mother heated water and filled a washtub. The girls got first go. He chose a different slavery and went into the military at 17 rather than into the mine.
For a heart-warming take, read or see Homer Hickam’s life story – book and movie – October Sky.
My wife and I stayed at his house in St. John, USVI, for our wedding & honeymoon – top of St. John, overlooking the BVI, slept 20.
Point is, he went from a coal company town, as you describe, to accomplish much – an amazing man and an amazing life story.
Ironic, but his house was destroyed by Hurricane Maria, which was a direct hit on the island of St. John. Probably exacerbated by burning fossil fuels – damn coal!
Draupnir, Ron, I used to rent a decent downtown flat, old building, nicely maintained, above a bar so mandatory live music on weekends, for $400. Married, had a divorce, went back to live in the same building, same flat, this time for $850. It’s above a grand now. Glad I said “fuck this” at some point, bought land and never rented again.
The flat was in Argie? Sounds nice.
Hopefully no need for any stair master workouts on the weekends – pretty sweet arrangement, sounds like.
Ron, I’ll check Homer’s stuff.
No, the flat was in Fort Myers! The covers band downstairs played Sweet Home Alabama constantly… now I can’t even tolerate that song anymore, I OD’d on it!
Rulo – probably within the band’s genre – you should have invited a gal (or gals) upstairs to your flat and told the band to bang out some Bob Seger – Horizontal Bop. I still say, it had to be a target-rich environment.
Also consider the politics of the region. I would never live in a state like Michigan because of Whitmer. She scares me.
I am in LA now and am seriously considering hitting the 40E in October with my stuff and my bird and going home to northern Ohio not far from Sandusky.
My grandma bought me a plot at the cemetery years ago, so I’m figuring I’ll move near there so the kids won’t be too hassled when I croak.
I love gardening and the seasons there suit me fine, even the occasional blizzard (as long as I have a cozy wood-burning fireplace).
Politically I think Ohio is not woke and never will be.
“I love gardening and the seasons there suit me fine, even the occasional blizzard (as long as I have a cozy wood-burning fireplace).”
Right on!
Find the climate that suits you.
It is huge for basic quality of life.
Syracuse winters usually royally suck, but a nice fire inside with two feet of snow outside can be a Top Ten lifestyle choice.
I live in Columbus and while the state is very red, the cities are becoming extremely woke, especially here. Don’t say Ohio will never be woke.
There are good and bad sides to Ohio.
I noticed the moron who got drunk on one of the airlines a few days ago and was duct taped to his seat was spouting off about living in a $2 million house.
Turns out the jadrool lives with his parents in a $200k house in Norwalk, Ohio.
Norwalk is 17 miles from my hometown.
D’Oh!
I am also from Ohio and spent a week visiting in June visiting family in Cleveland, Columbus and southern Ohio. Much to my dismay, they were all very woke.
“I would never live in a state like Michigan because of Whitmer. She scares me.” ~ Abby
She should scare you Abby, Witmer is evil incarnate. Few can see the depths.
Ever stoop down to see a young child in a stroller? If you have sunglasses on, they will recoil – frustrated by not being able to make eye contact.
Their God-given instincts tell them if someone is either a “good person” or a “bad person”, but they need to use eye contact to make that determination. Take your sunglasses off, watch them lock in on eye contact, “search” you, and recoil again or fawn & relax.
Always one for little social experiments, hold a good sized picture of Whitmer up in front of a 2, 3, or 4 year-old – guaranteed recoil, bordering on fear. They see her evil.
Children still have honed instincts – they can “see”. We all have these instincts, but they’ve been dulled to almost nothing over time.
The eyes are the window to the soul they say.
Ron, I’ve always been interested in psychopathy and I have to admit that Whitmer is the one I want to see go down more than any other of the whole coterie of maniacs currently destroying our freedom. People like HRC and Pelosi have probably done more damage than her, but she always strikes me as being uniquely evil – a black hole of a human being. May she meet a fitting end.
HTW – we have the same evil top three. Fairly easy to see it in all three, but I agree with you – when you say, “black hole of a human being” – my sentiments exactly. In many pictures, she looks almost hollow. I don’t scare easy, but Whitmer gives me the heebie-jeebies. Just my opinion, but the whole satanic thing is murky, and probably a stretch, but Whitmer makes me think twice.
Ron,
Yes, I have noticed that small children/toddlers are often scared or unresponsive until I take off my glasses (plain glasses, not dark). Even though they can see my eyes, the frames must send a confusing message to them.
Eyes, very important I think. I’ve never wanted to look at vids and photos of her for very long. It’s the eyes. Very dark and I’m not referring to color.
Governors come and go. Ohio gerrymandered Kucinich out of congress. Michigan used to have one of the largest militias. Now we have several – probably all run by the feds.
Wanna live off the land? Don’t forget the water. If enough deplorables vote with their feet and move to the Great Lakes area, maybe the snowflakes will pack up and shuffle off to the nearest rainbow wonderland. (Many would prefer us dead, but are too lazy to make it so.)
Unfortunately, this game of musical chairs may already be over. I’m not hearing any music, and I’m not seeing any chairs that aren’t already crushed under gigantic, acquisitive asses.
Abby, there’s that. May I suggest N FL? Hydro situation very good, political climate also.
And you can’t beat the current residents…
I like northern Florida (N FL, right?)
Above the “mangrove line.”
But I am worried about the crocs in every body of water in Florida.
Islander, no crocs above the mangrove line – well, except for the occasional nut job that crosses the stateline. Gators, cottonmouths, mosquitoes, fellow citizens – your dangerous Florida animals, in increasing order.
I miss south Florida like an unfaithful girlfriend (which it is). Given my foreshortened view of the future, I’d catapult myself back down there (just about any part of FL) given a quarter of a chance. Up here in the Winter Water Wonderland, I can’t absorb enough summer in the few weeks of it we get, to make it through winter.
Blackbird/crocs
Really, no crocs above the mangrove line? Phew!
The Jacksonville area and hinterland look good.
Love the salt marsh around St. Augustine and up into Georgia.
Love the St. John’s River.
Love the sweeping Atlantic beach at St. Augustine.
Cheers Ron. So you were tested and emerged triumphant. Glad to hear it!
Fellas, re crocs: do not confuse with alligators. Crocs like brackish and saltwater, are secretive and very rare. Very tip of S FL, Everglades, Keys, Chokoloskee, are their only US habitats as far as I know. Gators on the other hand have a huge habitat that extends into Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, etc. They like fresh water, swamps, rivers. There’s some in N FL – sometimes you can’t go snorkeling in the springs because of a warning. If you see one better ignore and don’t report it, as the spring will be closed for days if you do. In my experience they are not dangerous. There’s a hunting season for them, some friends used to take advantage way back then. Tasty loins and tails.
The nice places are not cheap by any means
Well, they’re cheap by CA, NY or Chicago means.
Couple hundred thousand makes a big difference, no?
My kids bought a house in Hawthorne, CA four years ago for $535k.
Now it’s worth a million.
This is probably the number one reason people are leaving California: unaffordable housing.
I hope they all stick around long enough to recall Warden Newsom.
Good lord. Please tell them to sell now and move to Indiana or something. They can live off the interest of their profit alone for 20 years.
Yes, sell now!
Many people who inherited houses on Nantucket before the explosion of values of the last couple of decades have sold ouit and now retire on the proceeds.
Mango, Abby, same in S FL. Take the money and run.
Not Oroville!

Fallen Hero/place to live,
Just had a conversation with an old acquaintance who is retiring in 29 days. He is 77. He has a decent house to put in the market in pricey Mass. and he told me he will be checking out Eastern Tennessee.
I said, oh, near the NC border, near Black Mountain.
He said, yes, but Tennessee is better on taxes, and there are some good prospects around there.
I’d go for rural Wisconsin. Minnesota still works, just go central or north (but avoid Duluth).
Michigan – nah, unless you’re out in the sticks in the U.P. And even then…nah.
I hear the mosquitoes in them thar parts are big as hummingbirds!
I think our host is in a very fine spot, if ju-u-u-st a bit too close to both NYC and Boston metros for my liking.
Albany to Syracuse, along the Erie Canal System, has the bonus advantage of being very near the Adirondack Mountains, for a reasonable getaway if necessary.
Eh, the skeeters go away with a little deet. It’s the deer flies you’ve got to worry about.
Are those the bigguns that bite?
When in Ohio 30 years ago I took one of my sons to Holiday Lakes and a huge biting fly got after him so he dove into the lake and every time he came up for air the fly was there to bite him.
He is scarred to this day.
They are true pests. Just doing their jobs I suppose, but those biters are relentless.
Hero
Even when they have one, American’s vision seems to stop at the borders. I’ve lived in Idaho, Southern Oregon, Montana,and rural Washington— all those “last,best” places people stuck in a Big Shitty somewhere dream of moving to and bringing all their attitudes and problems with them.
I lived in a mountain town outside of a regional capital city in the province of Tolima, Colombia for two years while in the Peace Corps in the eighties. I was paid about $175 per month and never could spend it all. In the ensuing decades that country has made a transition to most of the attributes of a second world country. Violent crime is markedly lower than in a place like St. Louis or Baltimore. Public transport is more efficient and accessible than any city in the US. WHO ranks the health care system ahead of the US.The cities are bursting with new buildings and public art. A perfect country — far from it The list of its flaws would not be small..
What really sets the two countries apart is the cost of living. In the US, waves of foreclosures in 2008 and the present are transferring home ownership to monopoly landlords in the Blackrock mold. Any dream of future ownership on the part the generations coming to family rearing age is a mirage. Mass homelessness and addiction are as likely as a chicken in every pot and a Cadillac in every garage.
Compare two provincial/state capitals in medium sized cities and median income states. Boise Idaho and Ibaque, Colombia.
Your rental expense for a new three bedroom apartment in one of the new medium rise buildings in Ibaque will be about $300 per month. Even less if you chose an older neighborhood or an outlying area. Every other item on the monthly shopping list will be a fraction of the cost that it would have been in Boise. At the end of the month you will have spent only $800-900 —- whereas in Boise the tab for a similar life style would run closer to $5,000.By the way, the climate is spring like all year around— never hot and never cold. And the women are beautiful.
So cling to the fantasy of American Exceptionalism, or broaden your horizons.
Very fine article as ever by Mr K. To paraphrase, everything the Left touches falls to dust. They are a kind of reverse Midas. The Left love to destroy any institution or group that stands between the State and the Individual. Trashing the traditional family, the idea of private property, private enterprise and the right to assemble and spend time with anyone you damn well want to, doesn’t give more freedom to the individual; it empowers the State. This is where we are headed, folks.
They also love to throw it in our faces that their rules for us don’t apply to them
Thus you see a “defund the police” representative flaunting her right to private security, Barack “Planet Will Boil Over” Obama planning an event for over 500 people at his waterfront mansion, and Mayor Bowser ordering masks and officiating at a maskless wedding the next day.
I heard the head of Pfizer can’t go to Israel because he is not vaccinated.
This is why the Wokesters will push for another round of lockdowns.
They want us atomized and isolated in their digital swamp of Bookface and Instacrap.
I’m not so bothered about further attempts at lockdowns. The Woke blue cities will obey like the pathetic sheep they are; Red states and cities will just ignore it and strengthen their economies and natural immune systems in time for winter.
You’re there.
The Minus Touch
Nice.
BB, nice. The inverse touch: everything turns to shit. Unfortunately, as things stand, true to both “sides of the aisle” as politicians like to say.
Very fine post, Mr Kunstler; very fine indeed. It left me growling and shaking my head and snorting with laughter at the same time. The bullshit is deep on the ground now, not just in thought and speech, but right there in everybody’s paths. Fiddling while Rome burns.
I just finished watching a podcast out of Australia regarding the Covid president recently set in Alberta by Rodney King. He was fined 1200 dollars for taking part in a demonstration and it was a crown case. He defended himself successfully by demanded that the government present the court with proof that Covid existed and they couldn’t or wouldn’t. There are no human isolates available, even for research purposes.
precedent, sorry.
Had my annual physical exam yesterday. Same doc for twenty years now. He asked if I was vaccinated (I’m not). After the exam he asked why not. I gave him a few reasons, one of which was “they can’t even isolate it,” and he vehemently dismissed or disagreed with each one. He says he learned in the seventies that viruses had been isolated. I didn’t argue further, as it all turned my stomach — arguing with my long-time doctor, that is.
The case in Alberta was solely concerned with Covid, and they could not come up with a single isolate taken from a diseased human. If they could, I’m sure they would have done so. Other viri were not discussed. Apparently, Mr. King’s video has gone viral, has been widely disseminated, and is causing great distress among the Masters of the Universe. As an MD, could you explain to me how they know this delta variant is causing a surge in cases when the PCR test, still in use, though admittedly worthless, can’t even distinguish between Covid and any other random corona virus, or indeed, inactive parts of viri?
I’m not a medical doctor, I’m just living inMD. 😉
I was chatting with an individual I’ve casually known for about ten years when I let my guard down and mentioned the problem of the COVID virus. When he discovered that I wasn’t vaccinated he loudly accused me of being a mass murder who intended to kill us all.
I’m sure most of the followers of this blog have had similar experiences with the mass insanity that has overwhelmed the US and Canada. I’m done. I just booked a ticket to Panama to investigate non-touristy mountain towns and the benefits of permanent residency there. Or I may move back to the town in the Colombian mountains where I spent my Peace Corps years, but I’m not coming back.
I have had two similar encounters, Hammer. And I was well and truly shocked by each one. I mean they went from cheerful, friendly conversation to fly off the handle, no holds barred attacks! Turned on a dime. Shocking, I tell ya.
Please do your fellow CFNers a solid, and report back here with tips and advice from overseas. Thanks, and best of luck!

My reports would have little value to most. In my previous stay in Colombia I didn’t hear English spoken for months at a time Refreshing! My greatest reservation about moving to Panama, in spite of the great retirement benefits and medical system— too damn many Gringos there!
the very fine people of the Progressive Left who maintain that the 2020 election was the “most secure in history” — that is, without any significant errors “most secure” does not necessarily imply “without any significant errors” by any means. All those elections the commies won in the old USSR were VERY secure and WITHOUT errors — at least as far as the communist oligarchy was concerned. However, applying to the 2020 election the standards of being representative of what the voters wanted, votes being cast only by those qualified (and not by computer printers alone), votes being fairly and transparently counted and accounted for, etc., the 2020 election fails miserably even those its results are considered “secure” and “unimpeachable”.
I should have added the FU’d 2020 election is also considered “impregnable”, “inconceivable”, “unbearable” and a “miscarriage of justice” (? “abortion of justice”) by those in the know on both sides of the issue. Just wanted to add some inappropriate sexual metaphors.

i recall a former head of the education administration whose last name was Spelling, and a Mr. Waggoner, head of Ford
“Caster Semenya” – yeah, says it all, and in both directions.
Normally when things appear absolutely ridiculous – “Wait a minute, I didn’t replace my tires with pumpkins!” – I realize I’m in a dream, and quickly start flapping my arms to do some flying before it all dissolves into the waking world. This approach seems not to be working the past few years…
Hahahaha! Funny 😉
BB, to go back to the great fabricator, Castaneda, that we were discussing a while ago: intentional dreaming. Good you’re realizing you’re in a dream, and choose to do something about it before it goes away.
I’d pick sex with impossible women, but I’m not strong enough to will it. I should stick to frugal dream-wishes, like staring at my own hands as Don Juan suggested.
Rulo,
The problem is, once you realize you are in a dream, you don’t have much time to think of something to do, in order to take advantages of the opportunities available in the dreamstate. If you make it too personal you tend to pull it into consciousness and out of the dream.
Well, that’s the second problem. The first is realizing it’s a dream in the first place. I find nothing beats, “Look at your hands”, as a mantra.
Flying has always been my thing. First time, I stuck my fingers in my armpits and flapped. Made it up about 2 or 3 wobbly feet. Did most of my flying lessons in unconscious dreaming however. After a few years practice, during which my skills gradually improved, I’d wear a windbreaker, hold it open into the wind, and sail like a paraglider. Between powerlines and everything. Wild.
I should probably clear the brush from that trail…
Lucid dreaming. I used to have lucid dreams often, but not now, in my dotage. I miss them.
It’s like the Shoemaker and the Elves: as long as the shoemaker didn’t spy on the elves, they made shoes for him, seemingly out of thin air. As soon as he spied them, and btw, they were naked in the original, he spoiled the magic, and it was all over.
Joseph Campbell was a hero of mine.
Flying dreams are the best. I’ve experienced them, but can’t be aware in a dream. Like spying on the Elves, that’s good. Can’t even begin, a few ft like BB says, look at my hands, nothing.
But the question is, am I serious enough in my intention? I suspect it’s something like, “I’ll play this record, that would be nice… but this other one is nice too… ok, whatever, either one will do” That’s not serious intention. On good days I can embrace serious intention in everything I do, hoe a row, fix a fence, focus and do it. But in dreamland I’m at the mercy of what just appears. It’s usually either good or strange, or both, never a nightmare.
Campbell is “the hero of a thousand faces”, right? Outstanding book.
I found a great inducement to lucid dreaming to be recording my dreams as soon as I wake up. The more you record, the more you remember, and the more lucid your dreams get. I think intent has a lot to do with success in this realm. I have rarely been so diligent in the pursuit of anything, than I was in exploring the dreamworld. As I have gotten older, I put less effort into everything, content to be carried along by the momentum of earlier work. Quit feeding the elves, and they will go elsewhere.
My homemade brand of TM was an essential tool diving into the non-physical realm without losing consciousness. It is as if my “TM” took me a level higher (deeper? both?) than lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming seemed to set the stage for learning in dreams more than anything else. Entheogens had their place in the expedition tool kit too, naturally. Hopping on the magic bus is the only way I know to travel so far so fast through the collective unconscious and bring back souvenirs – but I find you only really learn the route on foot.
Yes, Rulo, that’s him. The Hero WITH a Thousand Faces, as in the hero story is universal across virtually all cultures.
BB, recording the dreams would be good. And it may help with being able to be aware within them over time. That’s good advice, I’ll start keeping a notepad next to bed.
The magic bus, no more for me. Entheogens had their time, taught their lessons… I’d be very hesitant to go there again. Never a bad trip, never fear, I prefer to leave it at that despite more lessons potentially being available.
Unless entheogens cover a bottle of good Malbec while still available, and something for the pipe now and then, I’ll pass.
What is “TM”? Meditation?
TM – transcendental meditation. Made my own, bet it worked better than the store-bought stuff.
Entheogens – “Man does not live on bread alone.” That bus is the only way to get to some places I need to go. Don’t go often but it would be a shame if the bus line retired.
Joseph Campbell – Glad somebody’s bringing Jung to the masses. Watched Campbell a few times, read Jung for years.
I am told that in the years prior to the Russian Revolution, the various radical parties, Bolsheviks, Mensheviks, Social Revolutionaries, all used the phrase “the worse, the better”. The idea was that an intolerable situation who bring about the long desired revolution.
I wonder if the so-called “Progressives” have that in mind with their progressive destruction of civilized norms. The lesson of the Russian experiment is probably lost on them though, I. V. D. Stalin got rid of the most ardent revolutionaries when he purged Russia in the 1930’s.
“I wonder if the so-called “Progressives” have that in mind with their progressive destruction of civilized norms.”
You bet they do.
Yes, before and after the revolution, the internal fights were ruthless. After the revolution, civil war raged and the boshies won… they were the most ruthless of all. “Can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs”
The very fine people of the left have not yet been punched in the nose, due to the overwhelming normalcy bias of the right.
Imagine their surprise, when we stop watching cat videos and start taking out the trash.
“Everyone has a plan, ’til they get punched in the mouth.”
Mike Tyson
The contollers’ planned future is not worth living in.
If that sounds grim, it should!
Not that long ago, JHK was complaining about places not worth caring about
Now it’s a country
Very soon to be world
Exponential
There’s only so much mustard for your Glock
I’m not surprised.
JHK is certainly a far more insightful socio-political thinker and talented author than I am.
Nice.
All respect to the genius of Mike Tyson, but no, most people do not have a plan.
Exactly Blackbird.
Whether people succeed or fail in life depends upon Plan B.
To Wit:
95% of people have no plan – so they’re already f**ked. 5% of people have a Plan A, but 4% fail to realize that something always goes wrong with Plan A.
The remaining 1% have a Plan A & Plan B, and shift to Plan B, as needed, when Plan A goes asunder.
Whether people succeed or fail in life depends upon Plan B.
I consider redundancy very important, the 1 is none and 2 is 1 concept. Sort of an outtake on the Plan A & B.
Things don’t play out the way one plans, and it can become very fast moving as the “planned plan” falls prey to the pitfalls summed up as Murphy’s law. Murphy is always along for the ride.
Ron, very insightful, and true.
You got that right. Plan A, Plan B, and a firm grip on the rest of the alphabet.
Not Geo, MrMango & Blackbird – similarly, in recon – exit strategy is far more important than how you initially get in. Before you go in, you better know your way out.
At present moment, the only thing very fine in the US are the margins
Hahahahaaa!
The “rule of law and not of persons” occurs only when: 1) Nearly everyone holds the same basic beliefs of what’s right and what’s wrong; and 2) The legal profession agrees on how to apply logic, prior decisions, etc. in a manner that upholds those beliefs. In those circumstances, the law acts as if it’s independent of the private passions of this or that individual. When there is significant disagreement about either of these two fundamental conditions, the rule of law disappears and is replaced by the rule of the powerful. Some come to even believe that there is no right or wrong or more accurately, that what is right or wrong is determined by the powerful. In the beginning stages, the rule of law is still acknowledged, but any grey areas are consistently skewed toward the emerging set of new values, or by the interests of the powerful. Later on, contrary legal opinions–even those handed down by the Supreme Court–are flouted in the secure belief that a growing number of people–perhaps even a new majority–no longer share the fundamental moral values that had formed the earlier consensus. The rule of law has always been a precarious thing and you don’t have to win too many battles in a kulturkampf to undermine it.
In the beginning stages, the rule of law is still acknowledged In the next stage the rule of law is given lip service. The next stage is hand-wringing by a few who truly value the rule of law.
The so-called Rule of Law is dead, and the maggots consumed it long ago. The next Rule of Law will be there there are no rules, except shoot first and ask questions later.
I’ve heard that termed as, “Wild, wild, west, motherfuckers!” Always liked that saying. Definitely got panache.
Just remember, we’re playing the Indians this time…
I knew that when Bill Clinton skated from raping Jaunita Broddrick.
He left the hotel room after raping her and biting her lip. The blood was running down her chin. He adjusted his fly and his sunglasses and said, “Better get some ice on that.”
His same arrogant behavior surfaced with Paula Jones.
For “some reason”?, he and his wife are among “The Untouchables”.
Never mind his dealing tons of cocaine and gun running when he was governor of Arkansas.
A protected POS, indeed.
This accurately describes what’s been happening for some time. The rule of law is skewed toward the powerful.
I noticed there’s a no fly zone all around Barack’s Martha’s Vineyard bash.
Can’t wait to find out who his very close friends are.
For sure Valerie Jarrett and probably Samantha Power and Susan Rice.
I wonder if John Durham is on the “short list”?
He could become a world-class hero.
Will he?
No.
Look at who hired him. Durham is doing exactly what he was hired to do – obfuscate, delay and cover up.
It’ll depend on Durham’s character, personal values & moral compass – we all have them regardless of who hired us or what we’ve been hired to do.
The Very Fine People don’t seem to think there are many problems they can’t solve.
They also don’t think voting problems are a problem, except that the half of the country who is genuinely concerned ARE the problem.
They figure that their Problem Half of the People probably need to be forced into submission to get their Fake Pandemic Shots by any means possible, which starts with marginalizing them, destroying their means of livelihood, and likely ending with neighbor paddy wagon pickups to take them to camps “for their own safety”. No problem!
The Very Fine People do think that firearms are a problem that they will eventually solve, but it must not have been that big a problem as Their Problem Half of the Population still have them, largely unregistered, I might add..
The Very Fine People are starting to figure out that Their Problematic Half don’t give a damn about ANYTHING they have to say anymore. All they do is cry some mumblings about something called the rule of their law, or whatever the hell it is, as I don’t listen to anything they have to say, anymore.
I have a feeling that The Very Fine People are about to face the fallout from a little saying that Little Joe Stalin used to say, which is:
” Death is the solution to all problems. No man, no problem.”
Of course, the Problem Half will have to face their share of Joe Stalin’s little saying, delivered to their door by the Very Fine People, but at least they have LOTS of firearms, something like 450 to 600 million of them.
I do believe the whole country is about to face a Very Fine and Big Problem! It will be a good time to have bulldozers to rent, and empty lots to sell, just waiting to be filled (underground).
I still see a lot of elected officials who are pushing these shots as if they believe that can prevent infection and transmission of COVID.
We knew this from minute one, that these so-called vaccines were only a therapeutic, not a preventative.
Why would anyone else care whether or not I took this vaccine?
They don’t appear to be working at reducing hospitalizations and deaths either.
Stop introducing facts to the equation, please!
What they believe is they have the right to rule unfettered by objectivity. All this covid stuff is the means to achieve and maintain population control. Just ask them, although I think the honest answer will be among the redacted.
The use of early Ivermectin, D3, C and Zinc would have been a far safer, cheaper and more effective therapeutic.
Funny how the CDC and the FDA said there would have to be long, double blind studies on Ivermectin but it was fine to push experimental jabs into everyone’s arms:
https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/double-blind-ivermectin-study-reveals-covid-19-patients-recover-more-quickly-have-reduce
It’s like doing a double blind study on Chapstick.
Exactly. So unbelievably disgusting.
Thanks for today’s article, James.
The Very Fine People are set to run the country off a cliff. I don’t know why they bother to threaten AZ officials doing the forensics on the stolen election. They seem to be able to do whatever the hell they want, and laws and Constitution be damned.
For instance, The Very Fine People are gearing up to re-create January 6 as the biggest catastrophe/terrorist attack since 9/11 (mainly using feelz and tears). Apparently Nancy “Word Salad” Pelosi has rejected Kevin McCarthy’s picks to sit on the committee (according to Glenn Greenwald, this is an unprecedented move), and put her own RINOs there instead (Liz Cheney and crybaby Kinzinger). So the committee is all Democrats, essentially, all Trump haters (and overly-dramatic weepers).
Do we imagine these partisan emoters will even make the slightest attempt to find actual justice? It is to laugh.
In fact, that’s all I can do these days. It sure beats pulling ones’ hair out.
CNN describes the Jan 6 ‘riot’ as ‘deadly’. Many police officers who were on the scene are slated to or have already shown up to cry about it like Kinzinger and Cheney have. The ones that probably didn’t want to cry on cue (or couldn’t) have been done away with somehow, what a coinkydink there, eh? Four of them? CNN’s right, that sure was one deadly incident! For capitol police, anyway.
And Trump doesn’t seem to be concerned about the people unlawfully detained just for showing up at a rally which then only seemed to turn nasty after agents provacateurs (proven) led the crowd astray. This is on video, but I’m sure that evidence won’t be shown.
What an absolute shit show.
Don’t be surprised if Creepy Joe doesn’t declare a total shutdown within the next 2 to 8 weeks. That’s when their cops will start beating up people and dragging them off to jail.
Mr. Trump? When he told everybody to take their shots, I knew he was a subsection of the problem. I find it amazing that people still think he should become President again.
Yes, I do, too. He helped usher in the absolute mess we have now.
Four years of theater, that was used to whip the Very Fine People into a frenzy of hate for anyone outside their cult.
It was very effective.
At the beginning when Fauci and Birx took over and Trump was in the background he kinda had that “deer in the headlights” look?
He seemed completely unaware of the fact that these shots are not what we normally call a vaccine.
Even Florida’s governor didn’t appear to get it. He never tried to coerce anyone, but he certainly made it a priority to get millions vaccinated.
We have a local official in a county near me, he made a bus available to bring vaccines to anyone who wanted one and didn’t have a site close by.
That’s all anyone should ever have been doing, if they knew what these products could (theoretically) and couldn’t do.
Oh, he knew what was going on. He was part of it all along.
Shit show… and this is just the warm-up.
This is what a coup looks like.
This is what a revolution looks like. A revolution of the elite.
If Trump gave a rat’s fat behind, he would lead a team of lawyers, accompanied by camera operating independent media into the jail where his supporters are being held and demand due process.
He could bankroll private investigators to look into the suicides of all those cops who were present for the events of 1/6.
Trump doesn’t give a damn. He left Flynn twisting in the breeze for YEARS. Assange is still rotting in prison and yet Trump’s acolytes remain devoted.
Why?
Property is what allows, and has allowed, Americans to generate wealth.
Predominantly the middle-class variety of Americans.
It has also allowed many Americans to buy into the pitch of what is to be an American: the possibility to better one’s station in life.
Growing middle-class, bourgeoisie (not the Marxist concept, but the merchant class), and upper-middle-class people are a foil to oligarchies and aristocracies.
They have more votes, and at one time, in the collective, more assets.
Not anymore.
Ironically, what has destroyed the United States and its once civilized society, is the unfettered accumulation of property. By a few.
One type of property, that can also be passed down to the next generation, are notes. Treasury ones. Green ones.
But unlike real (estate) property, they do not pay taxes on the notes.
Why is that?
Another thing ownership does is build communities someone might like to live in.
I’ve know people who have tried living in Florida,for instance, who did not remain because of the transient nature of the populace.
On their way to heaven I presume.
Florida is an ecological trap, a population sink. Go to Florida you meet people from everywhere – except Florida. Outside Florida, do you meet any Floridians? (Of course, go 10 or 20 miles inland from the coast and it’s a different state.)
It’s as if someone grabbed the US by the Canadian border, shook it real hard, and everything not fastened down tumbled down to south Florida. A great place to live – as long as you don’t have to share it with anyone.
Avatar, yes, a strong middle class is the best defense against the depredations of the super rich and the automatic loyalties of the very poor, aka the desperates.
Not really since the lower class wants to become lower middle, the lower middle, middle, the middle, upper middle, the upper middle, upper, upper, the plateau, the plateau, the Capstone. Thus all do reverence is this fashion to the Capstone – and obey the tiers above them that they might Rise. Thus do the Unseen Masters direct all via their faithful servants on the Plateau, and the Plateau directs the Tiers below them. And with the Carrot or Desire to Rise is the Stick, or fear of falling. Fear is also a very great worship, is it not?
Someone must fight the Capstone, ultimately. There’s no voting our way out, right?
Right
1 fatal presumption in this: that the “lower” always wants more.
That is not the case.
There are those who are contented.
Just because you feel the pull of your marionette strings does not mean so for others
Furthermore, there are many who do not want more for themselves, but are determined to make sure those with most, your capstone, have less, Regrettably, too many of their class compatriots are distracted by trans headlines, flag kneeling, and black stuff mattering.
Sound familiar?
Avatar, generally most want to go up in the material & prestige ladder. True, there’s refuseniks. I may be one, you may be one. There’s some with religious motives to be poor, others are just poor and contented with it as you say, but most want more.
Some of us would want less for the capstone without more for ourselves, true, but reality is that most don’t care about the very top as long as bread and circuses are provided, they care about having more themselves.
And I have to agree with Yoho that democracy as understood today is not working at all for several reasons. Fraud, manipulation and propaganda are the obvious, but I think also the fact that, again, most have bought into the kabuki theater of “sacking the fools, voting in new blood”, the ignorance, the lack of interest.
The Greeks who invented this form of govt didn’t mean it for a world of billions, heavily manipulated. Around 20k citizens in the polis voted, landowners and lawmakers, who also had to join the Hoplite armies when the polis went to war, so they had a lot of skin in the game.
“Not the same darn thing every time”. Heh.
If the CDC trumps the SCOTUS, how long before, let’s say, the DOT decrees no unvaxxed on Interstate highways. Sounds absurd. Couldn’t happen. No effing way!
Well it’s a movement pass disguised as a health pass, and people who got the pass are puzzled as to why it has to be renewed every thirty days.
You might have an overdue library book or something, so they may need to ground you.
Didn’t they slip something into the infrastructure bill about requiring new cars to be capable of being shut off remotely?
I sorta had a Road to Damascus moment back in 2005, after buying a new car equipped with OnStar. Since then, whenever I encounter things like your last line above, like a haunting voice from the ether, I hear “OnStar.” 🙁
If you check out books from the library, they are already watching you…
We don’t need no edjumacation
If you check JHK’s page often, even write on it sometimes, they’re watching you. So be it. I’m a good citizen and I have a right to my own opinion.
Rights. Ha!
You have the “right” to…
…anything you can get away with.
Maybe I should move my Interstate 40E move up to September??
Take I-40 east to Knoxville, and then take a hard left onto I-75. Proceed north as far as you can go.
My options to get the hell out of MD are FL, East TN, and CNY. Family in all three. Leaning CNY, but Tennessee is a close second.
Don’t go to NY.
It’s one of the ground zeros for the great reset along with CA.
The Land taxes will Drain you dry………
Absolutely Ridiculous !!!!!!!!
The tax situation is for now. I thought we were talking about later (possibly sooner than later). If I believe things won’t change much in the near future, then Maryland is the choice. The Baltimore/DC metro is nearly recession proof, cuz Big Guv.
Who’s collecting taxes when TSHTF?
My thought too JT, But………….
In the meantime whats a person to do ????
When looking at a piece of property, the first thing to do is look at the yearly tax bill.
Its most always available on all the realty sites…
Those people in the North country saw their tax bill quadruple from 2013 to 2014, like $8000 to $40,000 in one year !!!
Thats my only concern……….
Tenn. has a really low land tax but……….. Houses in the Eastern half of the state, are out of site in price
My Biggest thought is, don’t be a stranger or a refugee in a strange land when it finally. comes off the rails……
Know The land…….. Where You Make your last Stand !
“…don’t be a stranger or a refugee in a strange land…”. Exactly. Better to have connections at the root level in a sub-optimum location, than to be isolated in Utopia.
And “know the land”, ’cause I don’t think ya got time to learn it.
I completely agree, WH; and that’s why I’m leaning towards CNY, cuz it’s where I grew up and still have plenty of family, friends, and good connections. Again, if we’re talking about right now, no way. But I could handle the taxes for a couple years while setting up for the endgame. If things stabilized, then MD/DC area is hard to beat. Just sayin’.
Welcome to Sault Ste. Marie!
The Anishinaabe survived here for hundreds of years, you might make it a decade or two – as long as the grid doesn’t shut down… Buy your winter clothes now, by the time you need them, they will probably no longer be manufactured. Hope you like ice fishing.
Check out microhydroelectricity
Who needs WAZE when we have cowbell81?! 🙂
Howabout………….
They don’t issue DOT physical cards to drivers that haven’t had the jab……….
In order to cross state lines, a DOT physical is required every 2 yrs.
Exactly. The possibilities are endless.
That screws not only with income and job but JITS.
The Very Fine People aren’t.
I think we are witness to a type of insanity brought on by countless acts of ignorance of society. Thinking people cannot cope with being submerged in it everyday. A petri dish with a specimen will flourish unchecked till it hits the edge. Then with everything behind it used up and no place to advance it dies. This planet is being used and abused at alarming rates and we will end the same. We have exceeded wildly the population limits. While you can cogitate endlessly about the current state of the trivial, nature is having the last say and there will be no appeal from natures law.
Speaking of nature’s law, I learned of a body of knowledge called fluid dynamics.
The CDC “studies” where they put masks on mannequins (yes they did that) to “prove” the work cannot hold up against fluid dynamics.
“They” not “the”.
you are excused
Thank you. I really wanted the absolution.
Sounds like you’re kinda rooting for the depopulation angle of the so-called Great Reset, Redrock. Yes? Kinda sorta?
FYI, when I typed “Great” above, my iPad’s top suggestion “Reset.” Hmmm
The same Very Fine People also refuse to acknowledge or even consider the massive clusterfuck unfolding around our national health crisis. Many reputable doctors with different views from the official narrative have been censored and de-platformed in the melee, and what is left of the nation’s physical health appears to be in peril. Disease processes are completely apolitical. And now another front is being launched in the War On Reality, as shouts of “starve ‘em” and “lock ‘em up” emerge in response to any dissenters in what should legally be a voluntary experimental vaccine trial based on actual informed consent. The rule of law is failing in multiple areas, just when we could use a little discipline. Right below is a big rock and a very hard place.
Yes, articles like this are emerging from the new Very Fine People neo-Jacobins:
https://planetpov.com/2021/08/05/how-to-change-the-minds-of-anti-vaxxers-lock-them-out/
This was always and is still the plan — if they can do it.
That Rockefeller document described the unjabbed as “pockets of malcontents” living outside of the cities/off the grid.
And now I am seeing on social media, the same violent attacks on the unvaxxed that I was subject to when I criticized the trans agenda.
They’re all intertwined on the left, and these people are hitting the boiling point with their self-righteousness.
And put them on “no fly” lists.
Mary – on your link, the view from 30,000 feet:
The percentage of vaxxed is purposely inflated (imagine that) to create a false consensus on vaccination. The real umber is more likely about 50-50, but let’s say 60-40, vaxxed vs. unvaxxed.
The useful idiot fascist small business owners, by denying entry to the unvaxxed, have just reduced their revenue stream by 40%.
However, 10% – all vaxxed – suffer from acute PTSD, will remain in their living rooms, masks on, and will never be rejoining the economy in earnest.
Fascist small business owners – now down to a 50% revenue stream. How many have factored in their “burn rates”, and how long they can survive @ 50% revenue? Not many, to none.
After not too long, they’ll be cannibalized by their corporate masters – part of the plan they can’t see. Useful idiots.
How does the saying go, we all get what we deserve?

Excellent. Luschenko saves the world.
“Disease processes are completely apolitical.”
Those were the days…
Once upon a time there was a Tavern….
You can have 3 branches, but there is only one executioner.
The executive.
The court and congress are powerless.
They have nobody to execute their decisions and/or laws.
They all work for the executive.
Under Trump, the judicial branch ordered injection after injunction to STOP the executive.
Where are the injunctions to not only stop, but to compel?
Why, because division really does not exist.
This is the reality that people refuse.
The Congress is worthless, it is split 50-50, and the two positions are so far apart nothing can happen. It cannot use its control over the executive as impeachment has turned into a political joke.
So the executive now controls the country via executive order. Without an opposition in place, the Left controls just about everything in the bureaucracy now, the dictatorship Uniparty comes into existence. Watch the push on the voting law changes trying to get the illegals voting before 2022. If it happens, elections will no longer mean anything.
We are very close to the goal of the Left, government control of everything.
Congress also has willingly seeded its powers to unelected bodies.
When you see the CDC claiming they can have people arrested, you have to break a law to face arrest, and Congress is our law-making body, not the CDC.
You mean “ceded”?
Congresspeople are among the slimiest scum bags ever to crawl the Earth. Cowardly, self-serving criminals. They take an oath and forthwith practice to imperil their souls breaking and dishonoring it day after day.
OMG! Of course I meant ceded!
I’m just no good.
Au contraire, Beryl. You’re a Top Five commenter here, in my book. I pay close attention to your insights.
Sorry for being picky.
It isn’t helping for the Republicans to go along with the trillion dollar “infrastructure nanny state” bill!
Why are they going along to get along? Blackmail?
Pretty funny how Democrat Manchin and Republican Lindsay Graham were partying on Manchin’s houseboat with other politicians. Graham came down with Covid and Manchin was seen with a bandage on his forehead.
Must have been one hell of a party! Maybe that’s where Pompeo’s $5000 bottle of scotch was enjoyed??!
The point is, there is no real opposition to the Dems.
Consider a little expansion of the idea to the Uniparty.
As the rule of law crumbles, the pace of societal change driven by the Wokearati increasingly gathers speed. Just look at how much the country has changed in the single decade spanning 2020-2030.
If the present accelerating rate of implosion persists we will find ourselves entangled in a totalitarian dystopia by the time 2030 rolls around.
I personally do not believe America can vote it’s way out of this fate. That would require honest elections and a Democrat elite that respected the outcomes of elections.
Mass consumption of “hopeium” by otherwise sensible Americans is preventing them from making appropriate preparations for the civil war that rapidly approaches. Such a conflict will be indispensable to arresting the hijacking of our country by the professional Leftists and the treasonous corporate oligarchal class that empowers them.
Many conservatives start sweating and breaking out with a case of the vapors when told that they need to arm up and prepare for CW2, but it’s time to Cowboy-up and get ready. Some say that violence never settled anything, but the Allies proved this wrong in WW2 when violence permanently settled the question of whether free people were going to submit to the bully-boy fascist regimes of Germany, Italy, and Japan, so don’t tell me that violence doesn’t solve anything.
I prefer peaceful political compromise as much as the next civilized man, but when one is staring down fanatical Marxist ideologues bent on overthrowing free institutions of self-government, well, don’t you think it’s getting close to Second Amendment time?
Typo. First sentence should have read 2010-2020. Need second cup of coffee.
Er……second sentence! REALLY need that second cup of Java!
I was hoping that your coffee addiction had catapulted you into the future. If so, I have a question about some lottery numbers…
My interpretation of WWII:
It was not waged to put down the fascist bully boys, but to entrench the capitalist/communist duopoly. And to create Israel.
They are going to declare the constitution and its amendments rules of white racists.
They will be voided.
As their tributes and statuary
Their place names
Their words and rules
This is the way
That’s the goal, for sure. But as Bugs Bunny used to say in the Warner Brothers cartoons:
“Of course you know, THIS……means WAR!
Who is going to fight whom?
Maybe, Balkanization, like Pakistan.
A huge question.
Say we get a communist government, which seems likely.
What form will it take? Right now the Left has no clue.
Will the Chinese just adsorb ( with a d) us as part of the globalist takeover? Will we become a vassal state?
IMHO, the Chinese direction is starting to emerge as the way our Left is driving us. Are they the ultimate globalists? OG, who owns the capstone?
I think Balkanization is high on the probability scale.
Using the Northeast (to include NY, NJ) as an example, there are pockets, mostly in the rural areas, wanting no part of “the shit show”.
Yes. Don’t lump NY State in with NYC. The only thing in common between Syracuse and NYC is the population of Syracuse University students hailing from the NY Metro area. Maybe ten to fifteen thousand.
Speaking of NY, it does not appear that Andrew is going anywhere.
In a race to bankrupt the republic, here are suggestions for rebranding growing federal fiefdoms under 3+1 reconstituted branches of govt. Note: none of these branches should recognize the existence of the others except when raising the debt ceiling.

@WorldWarZeke, brilliant and hilarious. And a little too truthy!
I think you are correct, Beryl. Coumo will ride this out. Eventually it will blow over.
Coumo has presidential aspirations still. Heels Up sees Coumo as a rival and a threat, which I believe is why he was torpedoed.
Also because his vaxx numbers are wanting…
Only two days after your comment, BRH, and Beryl’s comment above. Now calls for Cuomo to resign are heard far and wide. It’s becoming untenable for him to stay on.
The appearance of impropriety can be as bad as the real thing. That concept is written into laws, bylaws, rules and regulations around the world. And it’s always been very selectively enforced. Why is Cuomo singled out?
Bugs. Liked him as a raw, edgy comic. Now he’s just another celebrity. (Gettin’ in Champagne fights with Johnny Depp…)
War? Maybe the long-awaited War of Everyone Against Everyone, but a wrestling of the levers of power into the hands of the people? We’re on the short end of that see-saw.
It’s Porky Pig who has his thumb on the pulse of today: “Th-Th-The, Th-Th-The, Th-Th… That’s all, folks!”
Agreed!
Those bully boy regimes that knew the Banks and Corporations had taken over and wanted world domination.
Could be it’s already way past every amendment’s time.
Wizard of the Saddle, yes I agree. Rarely, if ever has great societal, political change occurred without violence and usually a lot of it.
The California Warden Newsom recall election scheduled for September 14th could be the first shot fired.
Latinos here are polling for the recall and Newsom is currently down by double digits.
Larry Elder will probably be our next governor.
If Larry Elder becomes California’s Governor it is going to be a World Class Joy to observe as Leftist skull detonate all up and down the Pacific coast!
It would also be our first a real-world evidence that even in term8nally stupid California this Leftist wokeism has it’s limits.
The removal of Gavin Newsome from the governor’s office in Sacramento could represent the high-water mark of the un-holy Antifa/BLM/Woke coalition.
But, all bets are off if the Democrats once again resort to massive vote fraud to save Gavin’s skin.
I’m afraid not.
They will fix the election, that’s my prediction.
Yes they will.
Well said.
I think the current insanity is peoples’ reactions (whether they are conscious of it or not) to the free-fall of civilization we are in.
Everyone’s trying bizarre methods to change things that can’t be changed. Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic remains the best metaphor for it.
The crash is going to happen. There is no stopping it. People are desperate to control things that are out of our control. The agendas reflect that. Forced speech, idiotic belief systems adopted by our major institutions, the elevation of peoples’ feelings over logic, the suspension of reality. People stuck in narcissistic feedback loops thinking they can force others to change instead of looking inward and changing themselves, hating others on demand because Big Brother tells them to. Especially sad is the desperation for a hero to save us. We’ve been programmed to think of our lives as if we’re in a movie. Sorry, folks, no one is coming to rescue the planet from the psychopaths hell bent on destroying our way of life.
The PTB are shaking the jar, and they won’t stop shaking it. They can’t control themselves, and we can’t control them.
Yup, we’re all gonna die and no one’s gonna save us.
Meanwhile, life is such an amazing (and improbable!) thing, that I intend to drink up as much as I can before the bar closes. Maybe even extend happy hour a bit by doing the whole self-sufficiency, off-grid thing – and of course defending my domain against those who didn’t plan as thoroughly.
Die laughing – with the executioner’s hand flopping around on the chopping block.
You’re seldom sober long enough to find any drugs and get high.
You talkin’ to me?
I’m always sober.
I share your philosophy.
Face reality, then decide to laugh about it all. Enjoy the free time we have left.
Prepare for death – but don’t forget to live while doing so.
“I personally do not believe America can vote it’s way out of this fate. That would require honest elections and a Democrat elite that respected the outcomes of elections.”
And some demographic changes that are not going to happen. Our betters did not like the citizens they had, so they imported a new batch.
Absolutely right.
Our side needs to stop talking about “border security.” That is purely a defensive strategy……and it is failing.
We need to regain control of the federal government, by hook or by crook, no matter what it takes. Then we need to round up every last illegal alien in this country and FORCIBLY remove them from our country. No immigration court nonsense. Just armed soldiers and police arresting these invaders and expelling them from the country.
That’s what going on offense would look like.
We need an other “Operation Wetback – Part 2.”
Then we need to station our military at the Southern border and shooting anyone who DARES to try to cross it unlawfully.
I hear ya, Wizard; but, aren’t you trading one nasty bunch of asswipes for another? (That’s pronounced ahhzweepay, btw).
1st… don’t worry about your typo’s. Someone will come along and point it out. It doesn’t take away from your message or what I think of you. All the grammar and spelling Karen’s can kiss my ass.
To your point… I agree completely.
Maintain your circle of trust and do not let strangers with ideas into that circle.
The law has been turned upside down. The DOJ has been captured, and all the alphabets are supporting the new regime. Your normalcy bias and your moral compass have been used against you to stop you in your tracks.
They have enlisted the Woke 500, who with each passing day are tightening the noose around our necks. We will lose jobs, we will lose benefits we will lose many of the comforts we’ve enjoyed the past many, many years. But we must endure these hardships, and we must resist, this insanity.
We do not have a moral obligation to the Marxists pushing this agenda to murder their opponents. We have a moral obligation to our God, our families, and ourselves to resist this aggression with our minds, our hearts and our hands if needed. Time is our ally. The longer this pogrom continues the more apparent it’s insidious intent is exposed.
When you’re employer tells you they’re mandating the vaccine for the safety of their employees, you tell them if they had your safety in mind, they would block the shot not embrace it. Point out the hypocrisy of their actions, and tell them they are on the wrong side of this argument.
Freedom ends at your doorstep.
Citizens of ClusterFuck Nation,
Making book on when a national election will be cancelled/postponed:
Over/under— 15 months from today
Place yer bets!
California seems to be angling for another all mail-in one.
I never did get the over under thing.
Will the proposition happen over or under 15 months from now?
I say over, but only just.
But, never mind. My attempt at sparking some fun was quite clearly a dud. I can live with that. 🙁
Those “mid-terms” that too many are pinning their hopes on… Maybe a show, even more obviously fraudulent – and divisive – than the last one. And maybe not – 15 months is a long time these days. Either way, I doubt we will still be discussing politics on this site in November 2022.
By 2024, forget that voting nonsense. Who would want to replace the Hildebeast anyway?
I can’t believe people still think it’s anything but a massive shit show! Geez, what is it going to take?
So… that’s an “over” for you, Blackbird?
Ok, you caught me hedging my bet.
I’ll go with “under”. This is based on the last election having effectively been “cancelled” – although not “officially” stated as such.
It ain’t gonna get better, it’s gonna get worse
Hahaha! Can’t blame you for hedging.
I’m taking the over cuz I foresee the dems getting blown out in the midterms and immediately employing lawfare to overturn. Soon thereafter, the Harris administration resorts to martial “law” and then ALL BETS ARE OFF!
The Rule of Law is dead. Why should anyone follow any law? It is apparently “optional”. Cabbage head Biden thinks so. I think the landlords should file to evict. Are they going after millions of folks? Where are the court challenges? The Supreme Court should be pretty pissed!
Meanwhile in the land of the Old Dominion, the worst Governor in the world, black face Northam is mandating all state employees get the jab. Too bad I retired some time ago.
There is no rule of law, the only rule is that if it feels good then do it. Who cares about anyone else and the consequences? I mean, you can wantonly steal up to $500 in merchandise from a California store and face absolutely no consequences. If I was closer to that State I would certainly be hitting up the big box stores on a regular basis and loading up my car with free merchandise. The world has gone bat shit crazy so screw ’em all to hell!
Notice no one is actually checking to see when they reach their “quota” either.
And not only CAN you wear a mask, you MUST wear a mask! Add hoodie and shades and… It’s too easy and it’s exactly according to plan.
Actually the figure is $950. Anything shoplifted or looted under that value you’re good, no problem, can I get the door for you, have a nice day.
Brh
I think the cap is $950 worth of goods.
MiddlePeninsula: Quite right. Mass civil disobedience of these non-eviction orders would call Biden’s bluff. I personally do not believe that this regime is fully prepared to litigate tens of thousands of evictions. They just want to see how much they can get away with and gauge how badly the Deplorables are buffaloed by their bully-boy authoritarianism.
Like all bullies, they are cowards at their core. Landlords from sea to shining sea should call their bluff and evict the deadbeat tenants today.
Banksters will buy at distress prices then get bailed out cuz they had a heart and didn’t evict. All according to plan.
Here it is plus a comment…

Jack the Protein.
Enjoyable article Jim. This is madness. Everyday I wonder what next is going to come out of the clown car we’ve become.
I imagine the goal with the rent moratorium is to kick the can down the road to say…hmm after the 2022 midterm elections? Gotta keep those voting constituents happy ’til then…
Jubilee – just wanted to present the concept as an outcome. Cause and effect – 5th move stuff..
The landlord thing makes perfect sense. Blackrock, et al want to own everye single family house in the United States. What better way to squeeze small landlords than make paying rent optional? Wall Street to the rescue. On the plus side of the ledger, no tyrant has ever won in the long run. They’ve all eventually swung from trees, or meat hooks or pleaded for their lives like their current hero, Che. It will be no different with these very fine people. The sooner the better.
Black rock is not the optimum money sink. The creator of the money is.
Ultimately, all the banks and financial institutions will go down and hand what is left to Amerika.
The ASSR.
We have moved from a society of rights and obligations to one of permission or compulsion to do what is required. The simplest acts can be used as levers of power to force your compliance.
I received a $10,000 PPP loan in April of 2020 to pay employees for the 7 weeks I was required to close. ( A neighboring chiropractor was charged for opening a week early against the State order to close. They dropped the case yesterday with a $500 fine). My bank has found it impossible to tell me when this “loan” will be forgiven and have asked for repayment starting Aug 20th (1.5% interest only). I said forget that, I’ll move to another bank. But significantly I cannot transfer all my money because I still “owe” them $10,000. They have already asked for 3 years of tax returns and why not add some more conditions to forgive the loan?
There is a list of 159,000 businesses in Alabama that have received PPP money–the average $60,000 but some well known local businesses with 250+ employees got $5 million. A plumbing company allowed to work during the closures. Who wins and who loses in this system? The independent are being coralled. If a friend of mine didn’t own the building I rent from perhaps I could have made a brilliant economic decision and neglected to pay rent for 18 months….
Rocketdoc
The money you are receiving is worthless. It is leading you down the inflation path as you will never catch up with the banks trying to offset non payments. The government printing money that is not backed up by real labor just makes thing expand more and more.
A very classic Ponzi scheme. Ponzi schemes inevitably end up in the dumper. As will the US monetary system.
What do you suggest we dump our greenbacks on then that will hold value for us? You can only carry so much gold and silver around.
In CW2 the most precious metal of all will be lead, closely followed by copper. Bullets will be the stuff of barter.
When the shooting stops and the smoke clears, then haul out your silver and gold coin for peacetime trade.
What does gold and silver taste like?
You can’t shoot miniature drones and weaponized nano-bots.
Bird shot?
You have no idea what is coming.
The second amendment/gunsexual types think they can shoot their way out of everything
.
Your only option for your 14tc century tech will be looking down your own barrel.
It’s always been possible to determine the value of silver and gold. This was never a problem over the millennia when it was used as money. From the standpoint of a barter economy, these are perhaps best viewed and high-value (and non-perishable) commodities in themselves, the value of which can be as easily ascertained as can the value of tobacco, corn, soybeans, and moonshine.
The biggest problem with using gold and silver as a medium of exhange in time of lawlessness is that it would be a very bad idea for it to become widely known that you had any. You would be limited to using it only within a small circle of trusted friends, and secretly. I have trusted friends like that, and they will have necessities to trade. (They also probably have gold and silver, though they’re not saying.) But some of them have relatives whom I don’t trust, and I’m not sure how good they would be at keeping a secret from unsavory (or stupid) family members.
To a lesser degree, the possession of much of anything of value, if known, might put you at risk. The first order of the day would be establishing security, and the highest value possessions would be firearms. In effect, you would need to establish the Rule of Law independently.
Even gold and silver is only worth what the faith of the folks give them. Money will probably give way to bartering.
JHK says in his writings that the future will depend on what individual skills are of the public.
Unfortunately, not many of the skills required for the anticipated future exist anymore,
Doubly unfortunately, I don’t think that the future many seem to be anticipating – a slow but steady Reconquista of what used to be the US – is on any calendar yet to be printed.
Save at least two bullets – you’ll probably have a “near miss” the first time, but not the second.
Until then, carry water, gather firewood.
JAZ…..thousands of years of history proves that gold and silver are the most enduring and widely accepted form of money on the planet. ((Especially in times of war and economic collapse when fiat currency collapses.)
But if you believe yours is of no value because you cannot digest it just ship all of your “worthless” bullion and jewelry to me. I’m sure I can find a better use for it than sticking it between two slices of bread to eat.
C’mon, use your noggin’ my friend.
“Rare metals have always been the ultimate value in society, because they are rare.”
John,
The Old Pawnbroker might suggest otherwise.
“Throughout history…yada yada yada”.
The Generals always fight the current wars with last-war mindset.”
Rarity, in itself, confers no value…requires DEMAND, coupled with that rarity…not to mention the Government’s sufferance.
The Old Pawnbroker kept no gold. However…
The old pawnbroker sleeps well at night.
Find a place with a substantial community of Old Order Amish, settle there, and befriend them.
They’ll be happy to teach you those forgotten skills.
They’re in more than 30 states now, so they’re not hard to find.
“You can only carry so much gold and silver around”
Consider for a moment the current valuation of the pm are stated in dollars, euros, or some other fiat currency.
Also, consider post Napoleonic wars up to WW1 the 20 franc coins (or similar names) were 0.1867 oz Au and carried around in one’s pocket.
It is relative if valued in paper debt instruments.
The analogy a $20 gold piece in the USA would buy an excellent suit in, say, 1900. it will still buy a good suit today. It’s not the denomination, it’s the bullion value.
Rare metals have always been the ultimate value in society, because they are rare.
Question, what happens in our modern world with the rate earths that are required for just about everything.
What happens with oil when Peak oil eventually occurs?
Which will have ultimate value?
Precisely.
It has been my observation that people who question the utility of gold and silver as money tend to be undereducated students of history and economics.
They have a Normie mentality that only Federal Reserve Notes can possibly perform the function of money.
One shakes one’s head in dismay over such dismal ignorance of the history and economics of money.
But I get it. It’s an enormous topic and it takes years of reading and study to wrap your head around it all. JAZ would benefit from doing some reading about gold and silver at the Ludwig von Mises website.
Aren’t Ponzi schemes a felony?
Only if you are NOT the Federal Reserve.
Only if you don’t control the courts.
I very much look forward to seeing the smug S.O.B.’s who are presently abusing their political offices receive the same richly earned reward that Nicolas and Elena Ceausescu of Romania received from the citizenry of that very fine country on December 25, 1989.
I typed Nicholae, but got nailed again by the bloody Apple spell checker. Very annoying.
happens to me a lot, real pain, to the point when I see typos on here the spell checker comes to mind as the culprit
Funny. I was thinking exactly the same thing.
He kept looking up for the troops to swoop in to save him.
A question for the CFN folks.
If the government stops tenant payments to landlords for an indefinite time, does that put the pressure on the landlords to pay mortgages, upkeep, new investments on hold or worst case default? The answer I believe is obvious. So they one way or the other do not pay the mortgages to the banks. Now, think 2008. Mortgage bonds defaulting blew the banks apart and killed Lehman Bros. Remember that the ratings systems like Moody’s lied to the banks saying that the mortgages contained in the bonds are low risk. The same thing has to be happening right now.
Now if the banks start to go, who bails them out like 2008. Guess, run the presses. Pretend it is the taxpayers. Who pays? The future as the real value of each sawbuck goes down.
Now, my question here, is something more insidious being generated with MMT.
Like the federalizations of all debt in the US. The government controls the money, hence the banks. The banks steer the government according to their wishes.
The combination might be that the government is going to end up owning everything. Then when they default, who owns everything because they control the apex of the money supply.
A very powerful communistic central government who will own everything.
Could it happen, is it what MMT is all about?
Is this insanity at its worst?
JAZ, perhaps all they really want to do is to trigger another banking collapse via an artificially triggered rental real estate market meltdown. They they wil have a national economic crisis to exploit endlessly for garnering more power.
They NEED a new crisis because the phony perpetual COVID pandemic crisis is petering out.
When you lead a party that is totally devoid of sensible ideas the only thing left is to create chaos and confusion so that the authoritarian project may continue to advance.
Ie
They win, inevitably. Who will or can stop them?
No one, because people aren’t catching on quickly enough. They are sucking us dry before everything collapses.
The eviction law is under pressure for being unconstitutional.
That means the Supreme Court will probably make the decision on whether our private property laws continue to exist.
The Normies are sinking the country. Only about 20% of the population seems to “get it” that we will not be voting our way out of the gigantic national gulag that the Left is furiously working to construct around us.
Wizard-
You nailed it.
If a significant percentage of normies don’t wake up soon it’s curtains for the US and thinking people like us.
Sadly, I don’t see any signs normies are unhappy with a future as two-legged livestock.
Forcing an experimental vaccine on people is also unconstitutional but no one is stopping that.
“Win” what a concept. It means different things to different people.
Going beyond how my rights end where yours begin, yours end where mine begin, and the issue is defining solid lines and gray areas, win might never actually happen.
I’ll offer humans have been trying to win (however it is defined), for thousands of years. It never happens. What does seem to happen are periods of time with low conflict and general prosperity (at least for some). Trying not to do a deep dive here.
If we can “win” this one, the prize, as I see it, is reasonable calm and some prosperity (define prosperity, it is much more than material things) for the next few generations. The follow-on will be new conflicts requiring resolution. Enter new times of turmoil, eventual resolution, and hopefully another “win” for those who simply want to go about life being respectful of themselves and thus also respectful of others.
If anyone tried taking my property away they’d be staring down the open end of my shotgun. There is no reason why any one of us has to put up with the fake crisis and the bullshit it entails.
JAZ:
I, too, fear that the govt will “nationalize” all personal funds, digitize, demand that private banks align with govt demands to control all bank accounts.
This is one reason why I am hastening as fast as I can to put my savings into real estate.
I think this is basically what happened in Cypress. I don’t know why any billionaire would want to become a citizen of Cypress!! Maybe they have promised never to do that again!
” All insured deposits (individuals and legal entities) up to €100.000 have, as of 26 March 2013, been transferred from Laiki Bank to the Bank of Cyprus. In addition, the entire amount of deposits belonging to financial institutions, the government, municipalities, municipal councils and other public entities, insurance companies, charities, schools, educational institutions, and deposits belonging to JCC Payment Systems Ltd have been transferred to the Bank of Cyprus.”
https://www.forbes.com/sites/nathanlewis/2013/05/03/the-cyprus-bank-bail-in-is-another-crony-bankster-scam/?sh=4aa0795b2685
Real estate?
1. In a meltdown who enforces your contract?
2. Otherwise, the “King” owns all the land. You are welcome to “enjoy” it and make improvements. You are required to pay “tribute” to the king.
Point about Cyprus and sovereign currencies well taken.
But for better or worse we are stuck with the dollar. Still, there are lots of people dependent on that dollar, both in and outside the USA. So long as that dependency continues you should be able to trade your dollars for land, gold, hamburgers, surgery, German automobiles, and so forth.
We sense the dependency fading as our inept leadership commits slow-motion suicide via sanctions and simultaneously yields military supremacy owing to corruption and incompetence.
Billy
“2. Otherwise, the “King” owns all the land. You are welcome to “enjoy” it and make improvements. You are required to pay “tribute” to the king.”
This seems a bit theoretical to me when it comes to life decisions, one of which is finding a place to live that you can afford.
When I went from being a renter to being a homeowner, my monthly nut was about halved. That is, mortgage, insurance, and tax was considerably less than the rent. And at the end of the day you do own your house.
Islander you are exactly correct. I have “owned” my home with a brief rental phase in the 90s.
By “King” I meant The State, or whatever entity sporting gun and badge who will swiftly divest you of your “ownership” should you default on “tribute” (taxation). It’s an old system going way back in time to medieval England. Maybe Louisiana is different. I don;t know. I think Russia is different in that people there actually own their flats outright and the state has no claim on it.
The truly fundamental factor is community. Community will enforce your “contract” to your private property.
Gold, silver and jewels have proven handy stores of value over the years, as has fine art and real estate. My only criticism is that real estate ownership with all inalienable rights presupposes a level of social organization within control of the individual or community. But to return to your point, absent belief in some form of secure future there’s not much motive to venturing out of the cave.
Billy,
“Gold, silver and jewels have proven handy stores of value over the years, ”
But where are you gonna “store” them?
In a bank (ha ha).
Fun Note, Islander: Cyprus has historically been an attractive bolthole for corrupt Russky millions.
I read that immediately before the above sequestration was implemented all that Russian dosh flew the coop, heading for friendlier climes.
Insider info anyone?
Check out Dmitry Orlov for lots of “insider” info on Russia. I read his blog at /cluborlov.blogspot.com/ and have read a few of his books. Highly recommended.
Speaking of Orlov, I found him on YT recently being interviewed at channel LordHughRAdumbass. A bizarre and thought provoking man, that Lord Hugh. https://youtu.be/1bVt2PVhN9k

“Could it happen, is it what MMT is all about?”
MMT can only work if the government has sufficient power to allocate resources (including financial).
It is coming. The only other option is the CW2 free-for-all that some imagine. The people will not stand for it. We may have a period of unrest lasting for a year or two, but eventually there will be a very powerful central authority.
One thing you can count on, whether the government calls itself left or right the people will be dealing with faceless bureaucrats.
There are a few different paths the world can take to achieve a population reduction, some more painful than others, but it is certain that population is going to be reduced.
You should really watch Catherine Austin Fitts.
Money as you know it is going away (she says). The Great Reset is about getting rid of the current system, and lots of human beings while they are at it. The current system is financially unsustainable, but if they told you the system they are replacing it with, you would fight.
Instead, you believe Covid is real and take the frankenshot, and, accordingly, you have already entered yourself into the databases of the coming system.
“Could it happen, is it what MMT is all about?
Is this insanity at its worst?
John,
At some point, MMT makes sense. Considering that the world’s nations are all in the same condition financially…the US is still the hegemon, and the balls will be kept in the air until the US is displaced.
Consider the Nuclear Umbrella, or club, that we hold.
The book has yet to be written on the MMT… there is NO history that reflects what is happening now in the world.
What would you consider a monetary success in longevity? One generation, five? Nothing is forever.
Put “success” into context.
Orlov says the reason Bidet summited with Putin was essentially to surrender and plead for lenience. https://youtu.be/1bVt2PVhN9k
Alex Berenson is doing some great sleuthing and reporting these days with regards to the Covid19 hoax. He keeps getting kicked off of Twatter for his efforts.
“Covid vaccine maker Moderna received 300,000 reports of side effects after vaccinations over a three-month period following the launch of its shot, according to an internal report from a company that helps Moderna manage the reports.
That figure is far higher than the number of side effect reports about Moderna’s vaccine publicly available in the federal system that tracks such adverse events.
Vaccine manufacturers like Moderna are legally required to forward all side effect reports they receive to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System, where they are made public each week.
Run by the Centers for Disease Control and Food & Drug Administration, the VAERS system is crucial to tracking potential problems with vaccines. It helped scientists determine the Covid vaccines may cause heart problems in young adults.
The reason for the gap is not clear. Moderna may simply still be processing the reports, though the number of reports about Moderna’s vaccine in VAERS from the first half of 2021 remained almost flat this week.
Moderna and IQVIA, the company that works with Moderna to handle the reports, did not return emails for comment.”
https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/some-actual-news
You know Alex is the real deal, when he invites criticism of his work, issues any corrections on a timely basis, offers to debate his detractors, and gets only name-calling as a response.
He’s what we should be able to expect from anyone claiming to be a reporter.
Exactly. He’s the real deal. Sad that people are used to slick liars as ‘good’ journalism.
SMH.
Mary,
I’m not up to speed with social media acronyms. WTF is SMH?
Shaking my head…
It’s nice, the media can pretty much just copy and paste this same story from last year’s Sturgis Rally:
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/sturgis-motorcycle-rally-sparks-fears-of-super-spreader-event/vi-AAN12R8?ocid=msedgntp
Speaking of “super spreader events”, I have been maintaining for some time that our betters who make the rules for us must have a secret resource that the rest of us don’t have.
By that I mean sure, we know that the silly “restrictions” don’t work, but it isn’t as if there is no such thing as COVID, and people like Obama aren’t acting as if being in a crowd or importing sick people into the country is any worry to them whatsoever.
Chris Christie was at “high risk” from catching the COVID due to his weight at over 50 years, yet he breezed right on through the illness and recovered in a short time.
If right this minute one of us took sick, and went to the emergency room, they’s send us home without any treatment.
They still get away with pushing the “vaccine” though.
Prompt treatment appear to work just fine, the vaccine not so much.
No one is demanding that everybody be given what our elites can have.
It’s all vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, all the time.
The usual woke scolds are attacking the ‘superspreader’ Sturgis event again, even as they ignored Lollapalooza.
Morons.
Our best offense is to ignore their squawking and hand waving in the MSM. Conduct your business lawfully and follow the law on the books, not edicts pronounced on TEEVEE.

It’s what happens when elected jackasses destroy the rule-of-law and frustrated citizens are forced to take matters into their own hands to stop others from depriving them of life, liberty, or property.
All charges should be dropped. This man is a hero, not a criminal.
It’s the squatters who should be in jail for failure to pay the damn rent.
Agree.
Just so disgusted by these Fine people of the Left, ( and like the good stupid robots that they are) who say ad nauseam and in unison:
“We are not programmed to respond in that area…”
How about a poll? Where are the best places to go to get away from the USA debacle that is coming?
We need to create something along the lines of “The People’s Party”. Use the power of that movement to break away from the United States and form our own more perfect Union. This is the only way anything will ever get righted with the ship.
Remember the populist movement of 2016 that elected Trump? Populists were against the Deep State that destroyed so many of their livelihoods. That is what the war is all about, the success of the Deep State over the country.
The public had the chance to destroy a little more of the Deep State power in 2020. It failed, and the Uniparty arm of the Deep State is off and running?
They started the Peoples Party. Jimmy Dore is hawking it.
I went to their website. No mention of the Constitution or Bill of Rights.
If they get anywhere elected to Congress they will make deals with the Democrats just like AOC and the rest of the squad did.
I will stay independent and try to vote for The Constitution.
They want bigger gov’t. Free healthcare etc.
I used to want that before I wised up.
I agree with their anti-war/anti-interventionist stance.
Gonna have to stand our ground no matter where we are, at some point.
I would say it’s not a good time to live in a big city.
That’s right Mary. That’s why I moved out of a huge blue city and relocated to a small town in bright red Alabama. People here are standing their ground. Our Confederate monument still stands. We don’t even cede the low-hanging fruit to these Woke bastards.
Like Hank Williams, Jr. once sang, “Every ‘ole boy has his OWN shotgun!”
Country boys will survive.
Thank goodness for those like you. I also am in a red state, but in a blue-ish city.
I’m in the ‘burbs though pretty much, like 20 mins from downtown and it’s not a huge city. We also have dedicated militias. My lawn guy is a member and keeps me updated. They kept Antifa & BLM from doing damage here. They surrounded them, armed to the teeth and just stood there until the assholes left.

As Yoho points out, the abysmal history of the USA in Latinoamerica is going to weigh heavily on any fleeing [albeit wealthy] migrants. The average American might look bewildered when you mention the Monroe Doctrine but they haven’t forgotten down south.
This is why I found it so riotous when the Bush Crime Family, ostensibly “smart” in their strategies, went and plunked down hard cash for 300,000 acres of prime land in Paraguay. (Read the Wikipedia entry for the blood-drenched history of that tragic land-locked republic and your hair will rise if there’s any left.)
I can see it now. The BCF’s gleaming 777 taxis up to the terminal at Silvio Pettirosi International Airport in Asunción. The Jefe de Seguridad comes onto the radio. “Welcome to Paraguay, putos gringos. Now come out of the aircraft slowly, down the aircraft stairs that are being wheeled up to you, one by one, before we blow a hole in the side of the fuselage. Your Secret Service detail will turn in all weapons and valuables to our Presidential Detail and go with them for debriefing.
“Tell our Security Staff where your gold bullion is hidden on the aircraft. His Excellency el Presidente has instructed us to take that for safekeeping.
“We will let you live, hijos de puta, if we feel like it. Maybe we will even arrange a motorcade to escort you to the Brazilian border. We keep the aircraft. Souvenir of your visit.
“Welcome to Paraguay. Your purchase of land in our Republic has been declared null and void by our Supreme Court as you have not fulfilled the environmental conditions imposed by our Ministerio de Fantasías.”
Meanwhile as Dubya is being frog-marched at gunpoint across the tarmac, his SS goons roughed up, slapped, goosed in plain sight, he whines “Where’s Roberto? How about Carlos? They promised to meet us with a delegation!”
He gets a good knock on the head from a woman who recognizes him. She hisses “This is your delegation, Yanqui bastard.”

“Stay home, stay safe.” No time to transplant yourself. And the new neighbors wouldn’t want you anyway.
The music has stopped. The chairs are all occupied. There is no escape, this is global.
That’s why Florida makes me nervous. Too many transplants or refugees. When TSHTF what will the native interior Floridians do about all the newbies? Deliverance?
I think the Florida bloodbath will have drained most of its energy once it burns, loots, and murders its way through Orlando – everything to the south: a burnt, stomped-on potato chip. I can’t help but hear Dueling Banjos – with a side of gunfire -when I think about north Florida in the near future – and that’s a good thing.
New Neighbor #1: Met the new Yankee carpetbagger down the road?
New Neighbor #2: No, but I heard him playing Pink Floyd – tells me all I need to know.
Obvious differences will separate you from your neighbors despite whatever less obvious, and maybe more substantial, similarities you might share.
BB, good observations, as usual. The music has stopped. Time to stay put. Nowhere to go.
I obviously agree with your FL comments, for obvious reasons. Yep, wife & I plonked our butts in one of the last chairs. We fit right in. All our clothes are work clothes. Battle of the banjos? We have battle of the roosters with our faraway neighbors. Theirs, ours, going on for hours. We don’t play Floyd.

I don’t know why, Australia’s are the most shocking to me.
Maybe because the restrictions are announced with a straight face and justified in a self-righteous manner.
I really liked the photo of the woman in the bikini on an Australian beach with helicopters flying overhead and a cop with an AK-47 near her ordering her to leave.
I wonder if the same response would have been given to Kim Kardashian??
Now there’s a name.
…But which photo is that? I hate AK-47’s.
My daughter owns an investment condo. She got a great deal purchasing it almost 2 years ago. Luckily for her, her mortgage is held by an extremely good lender (me) who has allowed her to suspend her monthly payments. Her HOA fees and taxes are not high. She did spend money fixing the place up, but because she’s concerned about a possible tenant deciding not to pay rent and she not able to evict, the place has been left vacant by her for a year and a half.
She wanted a nice monthly net income for herself, and would have gotten it had the stupid eviction ban not been in place. She may never make up the monthly loss on rent for a long time, if ever. The good news is that she got such a good purchase price, that even if condo prices tank, she would make a great profit.
I’m going to advise her soon she ought to sell, take the money and run. Knowing her, she won’t listen. If things keep getting worse, I’m going to insist she start paying the mortgage. That would anger her, but force her to sell. She will make out fine. I think she had this idea that she would be purchasing other properties and getting enough monthly income to support herself. As of now, I don’t think that will happen. Thanks, US government.

Ever watched Pacific Heights with Matthew Madine and Melanie Griffith.
Every potential landlord should get to watch Michael Keaton destroy their “real estate investment”.
I cared more about the kitty than them.
Yeah, I saw the movie. Scary.
There’s been a war on the self-reliant in this country.
I once had gumption and desire to start my own little business, selling my wares in the town square. I never got around to that, regulatory red tape being what it is. Probably a good thing I never did purchase commercial property and try my hand at independent business. I would never dream of this now or recommend it, seeing that the government can come in and simply shutter your facility upon a whim.
Best to hold onto everything you have and hope it can be useful at some point in the future when a barter economy takes root. Everything from a single nail, a pair of shoes, to an empty milk crate will have some kind of value. Don’t throw anything of use away because some things will simply never be made again.

All apologies for posting this so many times, I am just doing what I feel is necessary to get the word out. The time to turn this ship around is about to run out, and if we do not act soon we are going to crash right through the rubicon and hit the brick wall of our demise at full velocity.
___________________
The media – both news and entertainment – have now politicized nearly everything in our society as an extremely powerful mechanism of control.
Most humans emotionally connect their personal belief system to the belief system of their political party, and so then any attack on their party – legitimate or otherwise – is interpreted by their brain as an attack on themselves. Reason and logic then jump out the nearest window as raw emotion takes the helm.
This is an extremely damaging and regrettable exploit of human nature. Worse, this exploit is as easy to execute as flipping a light switch for the majority of the population.
The largest PSYOP in history is unfolding right before our eyes, armed with incalculable amounts of human behavior data collected from internet and smart phone usage geared toward manipulating us to walk in lock-step into the incinerator of our own destruction.
We’re dealing with a captured media and the transparently obvious military grade psychological operations they are relentlessly employing, the millions of sheep that believe their every obvious lie and preach it as gospel, and their near total obliviousness to the self-evident fact that this plandemic is a blatant takeover of the world by a handful of psychopaths.
Here are two essential articles detailing how politicians hack our brains with fear as a means of political control:

Thank you for posting.
Having learned so much about MKUltra mind control (a program the CIA has always used), I started recognizing the pattern when they began using the tactics on the public, via movies, TV, news, mainstream media, social media, etc.
I noticed it before the plandemic hit, but they ratcheted it up to 11 at that time and it keeps getting more and more surreal.
Gaslighting is its most noticeable vehicle but of course there are many elements of psychological torture and manipulation occurring.
I am glad I can see it, I am sad that most can’t. If I hadn’t been so curious after 9/11 and learned about the psychotics in charge, I could be one of the ones still stuck in the Truman Show. Man are they in for a huge awakening.
I find the predictive-programming pretty interesting these days. They use it all the time.
One particularly hilarious example was over at Pockets of the Future. He had a clip from some stupid fashion/makeover show where they had a model come out wearing a medical-looking facemask, and the model’s name was Kovid.
I can’t remember how old the clip was, but it preceded the Covid Hoax by at least 5-6 years.
LOL.
Night Owl, I wasn’t aware of the Kovid, thanks for the tip I will check into that.
It’s becoming more and more obvious that most entertainment these days is nothing more than the pied piper of the New World Order.
https://www.bitchute.com/video/Hl1OZAByu68W/
I saw that!! And he’s also posted about 20 other ones. Some movie starring John Kusak as the bad guy, the plot was a fake pandemic with the vaccine as the savior but of course it was deadly! I mean come on! I don’t know why people don’t get this.
“I noticed it before the plandemic hit, but they ratcheted it up to 11 at that time and it keeps getting more and more surreal.

You are 100% correct. The PSYOP has gotten so glaringly over the top now it feels as if I am living in a cartoon… and almost nobody can see it except a few of us.
If I didn’t have the existential dread it would be hilarious, since not much has really hit me personally yet, except my work requiring masks and vaxx (won’t be going back).
MaryQueen, all of this clicked home for me last May, and I went through a horrible period of extreme dread that lasted all summer, so I can certainly relate.
It was ever thus.

Distinguished Congresswoman Cori Bush begs to differ with you; in her opinion, from here on in, rent should be free. What’s more, just yesterday she stated heat and utility bills should be picked up by the govt. Everything should be free, apparently.
What race is Ms Bush?
huh.
People like Cori are evil to the core. They understand full well what total government control means. Pee in a cup for us every day, test for covid 5x a day, your movements are restricted, etc. in exchange for rent.
Can anyone here honestly believe that this “creature” actually sits and votes in the Congress of the United States of America?
At this point we could apparently seat my German Shepherd as a voting member of Congress and the only effect it would have on the decision making process up there is to raise the average IQ for that not-so-august body.
Bush: They would rather I die? You would rather me die? Is that what you want to see? You want to see me die? You know, because that could be the alternative. So either I spent $70,000 on private security over the last few months, and I’m here standing now and able to speak, able to help save 11 million people from being evicted. Or – I could possibly have a death attempt on my life.
I don’t know anything about her but her position fits with the times.
Great article….
My own take on the National Debt and I ain’t talkin’ money!
Anyone else remember the “Trillion Dollar Coin” idea? When that started, they thought one coin might suffice!
Here’s the essay….actually a journal entry: https://borderlandjournal.com/august-2021/
They had to suspend the doomsday clock.
Ran out of time I guess
But the debt clock keeps chugging
No limits
Then there is the climate clock
we’re at 1 Biden and 1/2 Kamala ’til game time.
Haha! Time to simply disconnect the clock and replace it with a sundial.
“It was a bright cold day in April, and the clock was striking 13.”
First line of ‘1984’.
There’s your doomsday clock.
Perfect. Thanks, Heckler.
Those actually running the Bidet regime want 50% of vehicles to be electric in less than 9 years.
An impossibility. Clearly.
We all know the demand for the resources to manufacture them will drive prices out of reach. For the many.
And Happy Motoring, for the common man, will finally come to an end.
That is, unless, you are happy motoring in the passenger seat of an autonomous subscription vehicle.
There is always the old stand by of throwing that thumb out and hitchhiking. Personally, I wouldn’t mind riding the rails where I need to go. Just got to watch out for the bulls in the local railyard. Need to come up with a good Hobo name too, Cowbell Willy should suffice.
Cart before the horse. The grid could never handle it. Those EV’s better have treads and skis around here because the electric plow trucks ain’t gonna’ push shit for snow. Once we cool the climate down we’ll be getting twice as much of the white stuff. The law of unintended consequences.
Yeah I was reading about the much touted F-150`EV. It seems possibly we are being sold a bill of goods. The 400 mile range per charge Ford is claiming is attained under optimal conditions, on a hard, flat surface, at 68°F, on a sunny day. As soon as you have to use windshield wipers, the heater, AC, tow a trailer or haul a load under real world conditions, that 400 mile range drops precipitously (by as much as 66%) Also, the $49000 price point is not realistic, that’s a stripped down, barebones model; $75,000-$90,000 will be more like it.
Automobiles will become unaffordable for most people IMHO. Of course the Climate Czar and head of your local EPA enforcement bureau will still be zipping around in gasoline powered SUVs and slick BMWs. The rest of us will be riding on the Electric Bus, which breaks down frequently, and is currently out of service because of another blackout or brownout.
“The rest of us will be riding on the Electric Bus, which breaks down frequently, and is currently out of service because of another blackout or brownout.”
BRH,
But…but how will we get to the next Treasury Auction?
Haha, E.
I take Amtrak up there from Old Saybrook.
This whole idea of Constitutional government only works if people agree to play by the rules. Biden et al just displayed their refusal to play by the rules – blatantly ignoring the Supreme Court. Since they own the enforcement arm of the judicial branch, and own enough of the legislative branch to keep any legislative enforcement from being enacted, the rules of the game have been nullified.
And surprise, surprise, they apparently also own the leadership of the military. At one time, we might have expected them to intervene if things ever got bad enough. Not going to happen. Impeachment is impossible since they own the House of Representatives.
We are therefore living in the equivalent of a nascent monarchy or dictatorship. But we don’t really know who is animating the brain-dead cadaver nominally occupying the office of President. Hard to fight the enemy you can’t see.
Like it or not, it is now a free-for-all. Make of it what you will.
Well, currently the Joint Chiefs are busy rooting out from the ranks straight white Christian men who might have voted for President Trump (and therefore are politically unreliable), also, ensuring that every service member who wants a sex change operation, can get a sex change operation.

I’m 62 years old, and I guess I’m not gonna get the comfy retirement as “promised.” Actually, I’m not as bummed out as you might expect. If I play my cards right, I still might be able to enjoy the show, in a twisted kinda way. But try as I might, I just can’t see even a bumpy landing, let alone a soft one. Mentally, at least for me, that’s very hard to deal with. Is that why we’re all here, talking it out, searching and hoping for some light at the end of this tunnel? I haven’t done it yet, but I must choose a new path. The one I’m on ain’t gonna pay off, I’m afraid.
Thanks, James! And thanks to all CFN commenters, for helping me sort my thoughts and challenge my beliefs and assumptions. 🙂
And for the entertainment value!
JTin, best of luck to you. I’m also grateful to JHK and commenters for dissecting a complex reality for me.
I hear you. Even though I paid in all my working life, I never had much faith in the viability of Medicare, but now I wouldn’t touch their services with a ten-foot pole while socially distancing the required six feet. Maybe that was always the plan.
The evaporation of pensions is one big market crash away (the global bond markets are already toast, especially in Europe and Japan).
Social Security still functions, but depends on the viability of the US Dollar, yet they’re working furiously to undermine even that.
I’d say get debt free, but I’m not sure it even matters. As JHK would often say, maybe we’ve arrived very near the point where nothing matters and anything goes.
Perhaps the most sensible strategy is to get and stay healthy so that one can react quickly and sensibly to the unfolding milieu. And, as we have recently experienced, THEY are working overtime to ensure the maximum number are sickly or dying from the injection(s) or constrained in multiple ways for not accepting it.
All that and so much more, KJ.
I daydream about a happy homestead far from the madding crowd, but I just can’t believe in it. Humans have to live in groups, and if you isolate yourself, one of those groups is gonna find you soon enough. So I always end up thinking about how to be very mobile instead. Now you see me, now you don’t.
Don’t feel like, the only duck in the pond Mister !!!!!!!!!

With it having been clearly established that renters can be deemed entitled to live rent-free almost indefinitely and that the homeless are entitled to live pretty much anywhere that can be construed as public property, my mind keeps coming back to a Matt Bracken book (I forget which one) where the govt. forces people with extra space in their homes to take in illegals and the poor.
As far fetched as that sounded back when I read the book, and even today perhaps, I can’t help but wonder if all we need to get there is the right national emergency, Look at how they seized upon covid to achieve various items on their wish list. Much of what is happening today in society was unthinkable just a few short years ago, yet here we are.
How long before we are at the point that single family homes are added to the white supremacist patriarchy list of sins?
This issue has already been raised to a degree in the following request from a BLM activist:
““Give Up The Home You Own”: Black Lives Matter Leader Has 10 Requests For White People”
https://allthatsinteresting.com/chanelle-helm-black-lives-matter
I only have one request for BLM…
Damn.
Don’t give them any ideas.
I really……REALLY……don’t want to have to ventilate a herd of squatter wannabee with my rifle.
Invading my country = Very Bad and lamentable.
Invading my house = Death penalty offense.
Same thing in Raspail’s “Camp of the Saints”. White Frenchies were ordered to take in a minority to live with them. Black Frenchies volunteered, so people wouldn’t have to take in the new darkies.
That scene where Zhivago finally returns home from the wars to find his once lovely town home is now a dilapidated, chopped up rooming house for dozens of starving comrades is illustrative.
The question then is what kind of disaster might trigger govt.-mandated taking into private homes of “refugees”, not knowing of course who that refugee group might consist of.
A total opening of the southern border so that instead of 2 million or so a year coming in, it suddenly morphs into 20 million a year? I suspect there are some who would stop at nothing to undo what is left of the Eurocentric culture in this country, even if they haven’t voiced it openly.
A significant grid take down of major urban areas? What makes me think of this one is about 15 years ago I was part of my then town’s emergency preparedness group. The State had my small town of 5,000 in Western, MA designated in its plan to take in 50,000 people from the Boston area if it ever had to be evacuated. Of course the State plan had no provision for how to house or feed those people, at least not anything they told us. Amongst ourselves we talked of how we would block all of the entrances into town before we’d willingly let the town be over run in that manner.
In the same theme as my last post about private property, with history being rewritten to fit the new wokedom religion, how far off are we from historical societies being condemned as part of the white supremacist patriarchy? Of genealogy as a hobby being condemned as part of the same? Both hobbies can be the keeper of historical truths that are now frowned upon as non-compliant with woke mandates.
Actual history that reminds people our country and founding culture has its primary roots in England is not what a lot of people want to hear anymore. The rest of the world added their piece to the melting pot (a term surely to earn demerit points now I am sure) but the US emerged out of England nonetheless.
Chippenhook,
I just read something relevant to your point.
I was browsing through a bio of Lafayette to find info on what happened to him and his family during the Terror phase of the FRench Revolution.
He was imprisoned in an Austrian garrison in Moravia. Meanwhile his wife tried to survive and guard their children’s lives at their family seat in Chavaniac. Here, “as Adrienne watched in horror, [the vigilance committee] burned all papers, documents, and other materials ‘in any way tainted wtih the spirit of feudalism,’ including precious deeds, baptismal certificates, and portraits of Lafayette’s forebears—all evidence that an aristocracy had ever existed and owned the chateau and lands.” Then the family and family priest were taken away in a tumbrel to await the guillotine in Paris . . . “With vigilance committees controlling most of France, resistance to the revolution collapsed” (Harlow Giles Unger, Lafayette, p. 300).
So one might wonder who puts together the “vigilance committees” first?
I am horrified that any modern pundit or writer or editor would appropriate the name Jacobin. Yet there is one:
https://jacobinmag.com/
And how about that? They have a lead story titled “We Need a World Without Landlords.” Hm. I wonder where the owners of this magazine live.
Three yuuuge differences between then and now:
TV
Internet
Mass private gun ownership in the hinterlands
But the biggest difference is the lack of a distributed supply system with essential goods sourced at local levels. Nowadays the mass of people are completely dependent on a complex, non-local system where 18 wheelers must deliver to the back of the stores and plastic cards (or fiat money) are used to allow people to go out the front door with their daily bread.
That dependence, along with dependence on water, sewer, and power systems, constitutes the power of the central authority over the masses.
My point was a narrow one, not relating to society in general, distribution systems, the internet, or anythying else at all.
My only point was the destruction of historical records by the Jacobins to destroy the history that they wanted, by fiat, to deny and expunge.
That was all.
The only reason Whites can study genealogy is because accurate records were kept and preserved by the families. Blacks did not have this luxury due to the slave trade.
Here is a good article about that very subject:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/12/13/dark-side-our-genealogy-craze/
Nobody wants to study history and understand the truth, because the truth might hurt. Better put trigger warnings on everything.
What about the Barbary Coast in the early 1600s?
I demand knowledge of my European ancestors from the period, and if I can’t have that, USD 10 million will suffice.
Thank you for your time.
Yeah, how many of my Irish ancestors were enslaved by Africans? Apparently enough of them to dissuade those who later made the crossing – indebted and under duress – from buying Africans to keep as pets once they made it to the promised land.
Blackbird,
The case of the Irish in the USA is interesting to me because they had been so trampled on by the Anglo owners of Ireland that they were really in terrible, terrible shape—huddled in unheated huts, wearing rags. Descriptions and also graphics of the day (pre-photography) of peasants in, say, the west of Ireland is just totally shocking. And when these people got to the USA they were treated terribly and viewed as basically Untermenschen and were thus depicted in American newspapers, again, engravings, and things, not photos. I am talking about those who came in the latter half of the 19th C (not the so-called Scots-Irish of the d18th C). Definitely comparable to the way AFrican Americans were viewed, also in the post=bellem North.
But the Irish did manage to work their way into the service classes such as the police and domestic service, and thence into middle-class society. Largely they gained political clout through big city Democratic political machines.
Back in the 12th century, a member of my mother’s mother’s family went to Ireland to fight, among others, members of my father’s mother’s family.
Both families also chose the same location when they arrived on this side of the ocean: Brookline, Massachusetts; Ma’s family beating Dad’s by about 200 years. I wouldn’t be surprised if Dad’s ancestors came here as cargo in ships owned by Ma’s family.
The Irish were in both the North and South. In the South, they were among the slave owners, probably Protestants who came earlier.
The later Catholics in the North were being taken off the ships and pressed into military service against the South. They rioted and killed hundreds of Blacks, the so called draft riot.
Your standard of virtue, “Good people like Blacks”, is pure political correctness, the harbinger of Globalism.
Yo,
“Your standard of virtue, “Good people like Blacks”, is pure political correctness, the harbinger of Globalism.
You said this, not me.
Don’t put words into my mouth.
It is your standard. Jefferson wanted them sent away. You disagree with the quintessential American Sage – as do all the “fine” people.
You’re not for Nations, not really. Yet you don’t like Globalism? Your standard is the Liberalism of the late 20th Century, I imagine, before it took the sharp left turn. But make no mistake, the culture of your birth was already deeply corrupt and dying.
To will the end is to will the means. If you don’t will the means, you don’t really will the End. If you want a Nation, then you have to do what is necessary to create and maintain one. The Founders did, conquering and displacing the Indians. Now we apologize and bow to them.
Actually I think I was replying to Blackbird, but no matter: You all believe it. You all think that huge numbers of utterly alien peoples – even ones who hate each other, lol – can live in the same polity, and that doing so is the height of civic virtue.
The Crazies didn’t spring out of the ground out of nothing. All y’all helped prepare the soil for them, sowing the bone seeds into the soil of a dying nation. Cuz the above belief is utterly mad…..
We learned nothing from Black Slavery because we then brought in another hostile people, one with deep grievances against us, namely the Mexicans.
Yo, I think you were replying to Islander. But sure, I’ll go a round or two.
In other words, you think we should round up everyone in this country, not racially pure, and ship them off to wherever the higher authority determines they belong. This will never happen. Aliens are as likely to arrive just in the nick of time to save us from ourselves. We can’t all get along. Neither can we self-segregate. Shall we discuss the stegosaur ranch I was going to build if only the damned things hadn’t gone extinct?
Or is this your means of damning the rest of us for pissing in the pool? Yo stands alone upon the summit of righteous indignation. It’s your look, I’ll give you that. We had a country once. It didn’t survive to nationhood. From the beginning it nursed a cancer.
We have thousands of years of history we can discuss. But they seem to lead to a stump in the not-to-distant future.
Mono-ethnic is the absolute best. Mono-racial at the very least, that being necessary but not sufficient. We had to get all the European groups on the same page culturally. That wasn’t easy, but there was material to work with as they were all Christian, traditional, and being of the same race – sharing something of the same temperment broadly speaking.
The Blacks were always the cancer, yes. The alien entity within the social body. Jefferson wanted to perform surgery and remove them – surely you agree that would have been best for Us, right? And that’s the question a nations asks after all.
But perhaps you want us to suffer for the sin of enslaving them? Is this your post-Christian conscience acting up? Group sin and the need for eternal penance and reparation? That’s a cancer too…..
Originally I was responding to you. Then Islander jumped in and I responded to her, now I’m responding to you. As I said, you all believe (feel) the same thing, even if unconsciously. I try to bring this malignant complex up to the light of consciousness so it can be destroyed.
OF COURSE it’s too late to remove them. But if you can’t agree that would have been best, then by the same token you won’t be able to see the best thing to do now, namely separation on the North American Continent and/or within the boundaries of the Former United States.
A country is just a former nation that didn’t keep itself pure. A little empire that instead of conquering, got conquered. And of course classically, both things occurring. Conquering and then swamped by its subject peoples.
Orban is the sign of contradiction and that’s why you (generic) hate him. You say it’s not possible. Yet he does it. So? So you’re wrong. It is not only ideal, but possible. Right Legion? Right?
Yo,
Ok, good, you gave me something to work with here – maybe too much.
The cancer. That was, in my opinion many things, but I’ll give you the top 3: Slavery, Capitalism, Democracy. All connected together like a barrel of monkeys.
Do I want us to suffer for the sins of our fathers? Hell no. Didn’t some influential drifter tell us a couple of millennia ago that law is no longer in effect?
“…you all believe (feel) the same thing”. There you go – the hand-feeding of words – wouldn’t be a thorough Yoho post without it. I don’t believe anything. Belief says, “I know” when I really don’t. I know I don’t know so I certainly can’t caulk that gap with belief. Now try to find anyone who agrees with me – there goes your “you all”.
What do you do with slaves when society evolves to the point that it’s no longer acceptable? You bought ‘em, you brought ‘em, you freed ‘em, they’re yours, your fellow citizens now.
Obviously it’s too simple to say slaves never should have been brought here. The world was a cruder place back then, slavery was an accepted part of life. Neither can we condemn those founding fathers who tried to adhere to their all men created equal myth, by allowing slaves to be freed, and as freemen (cough, cough) to not be booted out of the country in which they were born. They were trying to rise above their crude nature. So here we are.
It would be nice if we could self-segregate, but that won’t happen. The Aryan Nation smack up against Wakanda – peacefully, with Rainbow Land squeezed somewhere in the squishy middle – Maryland maybe? Rainbow Land being almost as white as The Aryan Nation, but hoping a little color will show up soon.
I neither like nor dislike Orban. He could be an obnoxious jerk with bad breath, but if he is promoting the well-being of his nation, then I think that’s a good thing. I happen to think he is doing the right thing for Hungary – and Hungarians – with his immigration policies and his attitude toward the EU and the Gay Crusade. Don’t like his strongman tendencies, but I realize my standards are too high.
Are you calling me “Legion”? I am not many…
Yo,
YOu have no idea what I think or what my “standards” are.
Such a stupid comment.
Owl, re Barbary Coast. Europeans were enslaved in their hundreds of thousands by Ottoman Turks and their vassals for centuries. Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, author of “Don Quixote de la Mancha”, was one such slave at one point.
The scene and cause of Uncle Sam’s very first foreign military adventure – and our only justified foreign military adventure.
The Barbary Coast of our first foreign adventure gave us the line “to the shores of Tripoli”. The Ottoman Empire still existed in the 1800’s but I’m not sure if present day Libya was under its control – it sure was back in the 1600’s, as the whole coast of North Africa, Palestine, and large chunks of southern Europe.
They were stopped in Vienna in the 1700’s I think, started a long decline and disappeared from history after WW1. Present day Turkey is but a small core of what that empire once was.
Ottomans were a multiculti civilization, with a twist: you want your own culture? Fine as long as you pay for it. Jews, Christians, Bedouin, all accepted as long as taxes were collected in a timely fashion.
Also famous for their cruelty.
Those weren’t Turks, but Tunisian and Algerian Arabs I believe. Maybe they were under Turkish influence, not sure. The Turks were doing much the same in the Balkans of course.
All we needed to know about Islam was available right there. But we fucking forgot. The nature of Man is to forget. Culture is supposed to be about remembering things like that. That’s why history is such an important part of culture.
Not Arabs, Berbers. Barbary Coast. White folks with roots in the Mediterranean littoral. They left Africa – but came back.
The Arabs brought Islam. The Turks brought a brief period of being part of something bigger. The Ottomans bit off more than they could chew, but they swallowed it anyway and took another helping. That’s why we rest our feet on them now.
Yeah, vassal states and tribes. Allowed a measure of independence in exchange for hefty tributes.
Maybe, but the Arabs massively colonized all of that area.
Arabia never supported a dense population, for obvious reasons. While Arabs drove Islamic expansion across a wide geographic area, their genetic contribution was small. The jar of Arab peanut butter is much too small to spread thickly across the hot sands of the Islamic world.
“Those weren’t Turks, but Tunisian and Algerian Arabs I believe. Maybe they were under Turkish influence, not sure. ”
Why don’t you learn some history before flapping your jaws?
Yes, that is what I was referring to. I demand my reparations. Where is the NAAWEBCP?
Owl, what is incredible is that nobody mentions the fact that every race and culture has skeletons in the closet.
Every one has had slaves or been slaves themselves throughout history.
Lemmings are now convinced that European peoples are responsible for every damn thing that ever happened. The other 85% of humanity, blameless, angels of mercy.
Yes, Rulo. It is because they cannot critically think.
These days, all that seems to matter is a piece of paper.
Back in my uni days we all used to joke that all that mattered was that we paid our tuition. You pay money to move into the next socioeconomic class.
Virtually anything one learns in the classroom is better learned in practice and situations where one must actually think and come up with solutions.
The propaganda disseminated during this hoax is so easily dismantled that it is hard to fathom how it works, outside of the emotional aspect.
Lemmings hate us now too? Fucking rodents. At least they don’t move into my house in the winter.
Re slave trade and genealogy,
So if they had stayed in Africa they would have been able to trace their genealogy? I suppose there are tribal traditions that “place” one in clan history, etc. If one wasn’t enslaved by an Arab or by another neighboring tribe.
Many, many docs have been destroyed at various points in time, in order to obliterate personal and other history. Also through wars. Such as WW2. Revolutionaries and Jacobins aim to preserve certain records and destroy others. Call it evidence.
Record keeping and registries of various sorts of information on private citizens/subjects have always been a double-edged sword, and, obviously, continue to be. Centralization of personal records seems to one of the first orders of business for national states as they coalesce.
You mean they can’t access the detailed and well kept records in Angola, the Congo, and Uganda?
MMT gets disparaged often as it creates money out of nothing. But that is exactly how money is created anyways. Money is mostly created by bank loans, mostly mortgage. The banks do not have money that they loan, they create it when they issue the loan. Government money is ostensibly from taxes and as it falls short, the gov’t sells bonds to finance itself. Banks making principal and interest from loans that they created from nothing can buy the bonds and make more money. This is all a pretty fantastic deal for banks. The idea of MMT is that the Gov’t can simply create money itself and not go into debt or even have to collect taxes. They do think there should be taxes as a way to take money out of the economy when it gets overheated. So MMT is not necessarily some half baked idea, its a way of running the economy that has the possibility of not funneling everything to the Banksters.
So this has been raised before but it bears repeating based upon your above comment: Why pay any taxes to the Fed in the first place if they can simply create as much money on a whim whenever it is needed? Anything more is modern day thievery. I think that the IRS has outlived their usefulness.
In my opinion, we’ve been on a perverted form of MMT since August 15, 1971. Michael Hudson makes a strong case for MMT – done correctly. I won’t pretend to know the subject well enough to argue one way or the other, but a person could do worse than to spend a few hours (make that days) reading anything this guy has written.
Hear! Hear! Hudson is a truth teller.
“… done correctly.”
The problem is that one must concentrate power in a limited number of hands in order to do it correctly.
Benevolent despots are few and far between. Sooner or later, usually sooner, the people on top start abusing their power.
I fully understand that in a world inhabited by billions, and with the technology available to humans, there will be limits to freedom. I just doubt that the powerful government needed for MMT to function will be able to provide a lifestyle that allows people to thrive and procreate.
MMT is coming. We have painted ourselves into that corner, but it will be a phase, not a solution.
The fiat banks are the keystone. They create all the “money” any despotic government could ever want, while the despotic government shields the fiat banks from any meaningful oversight as they profit from the arrangement.
It didn’t start out that way, but it sure has evolved in this manner, carefully planned step by carefully planned step. And the fiat banks are the master in this arrangement, not the despotic government, and will (and have) arrange and conduct world war to maintain their advantage.
MMT is a diversionary conversation. Creating money in and of itself on a whim is one thing, creating it by a private bank to be paid back plus interest is entirely another.
Good distinction. By definition, it can never be paid back since the debt will always exceed the amount of money in circulation.
Since they never lose, but always only gain, they must end up owning everything in the long run. The Federal Reserve Act was the Clock of Doom that began ticking down upon signing.
I think JHK is a little premature: “Western Civilization?” he asked;
Gandhi said: “I think it would be a good idea.”
I’m starting to call them the FSA – both the …
Failed State of Arizona
and it’s owner, the
Failed State of Amerika
The Left mantra of the mid 20th century (The Century of Death, where Men Pretending To Be a Government murdered a quarter Billion of their own Submittizens) was “Freedom has had it’s chance, and failed.”
I now finally agree with that. Some men were free – to enslave others thru sacred law, and set up a totalitarian World Nazi Empire, where government has already had it’s chance – and failed.
And having failed the people, it may be time to put ALL of those “very fine gentlemen” on some very fine gallows, for a very fine season, and start over. This time with truth, not “narrative”.
Yep. Agreed. I think most of what we’re doing now is just “happy talk” while we circle the drain. Not a whole lot has changed since the end of WWII. Just the natural progression of natural selection. A few (but growing) number of predators set free to feed on the rest of us. As for the gallows, I judge that to be quite unlikely at this late date. It’s an attractive idea, which is what it will remain to the very end.
The Nazis fought the Global Slave Masters. National Socialism and Fascism are philosophies of Nationalism. Capitalism/Communism are philosophies of Globalism that cooperate to destroy nations.
Are National Socialism and Fascism really compatible?
If I remember my Mussolini correctly, Fascism is imperial. I don’t see how empire building is compatible with nationalism – unless you plan to remove the residents of your newly conquered territory.
Seems to me National Socialism would be well advised not to get into the car with Fascism driving, and preferably, not at all.
A just point I must admit. There are other forms of Fascism. Mussolini’s is just one example. Ditto National Socialism. Hitler’s was just one example. And his expansionism was problematic as well.
Actually Nationalists love Kamal Ataturk – who actually ceded territory to create a real Turkish state, something that could never be with huge populations of angry Greek or Armenian Christians or even non-Turkish Muslims.
“Mussolini’s is just one example.” I hope Il Duce didn’t hear you type that. Seems to me Fascism is about gathering sticks. Remember a place called “Rome”?
Hitler was the car crash I foreshadowed above. I wouldn’t have minded seeing Fascism and Communism smack heads in the wild fields. But Churchill and Roosevelt didn’t want their baby hurt.
Fascism is all about Tradition. It’s universal and resilient. Is China still Communist? Of course not! They are Nationalists and thus Fascists, or perhaps even National Socialists since they value race.
Not a full or healthy version of either since so much of Chinese Tradition was destroyed, and now they are poisoning themselves with too much Capitalism and Western Culture.
My diagnosis of China:
Nationalist – always has been.
National Socialist – sounds about right in a general sense (i.e., gov’t does the planning for business).
Fascist – no. The imperialism thing vs. insular China. Their mass brings things to the center, they do not need boots on the ground to carry it home.
Authoritarian – hell yeah. Too many people call this “fascism”.
Communist – watch that coin spin.
Capitalist – still watching?
Well they really love themselves, yes. But the Han have expanded with China now comprising 70 or so different ethnic groups. Do a really good job and you can blend in and become “Han” or at least Hannish. Do a bad one like the Hmong and you can leave. Or be totally isolated in a poor enclave.
It’s an organic spread. But inexorable. What they conquer stays conquered, with the Chinese now outnumbering Tibetans in Tibet I think I heard.
And remember, they once sent out a fleet to promulgate the Glory of the Middle Kingdom between Heaven and Earth. To invite other nations to join and pay tribute.
Where are the Dog Eyes (blue and round), the Whites who once lived in Western China? Gone. Defeated by the Han. They either fled or got blended out of existence.
Sit too close to China for long enough and you will become Chinese. They are still inviting other states to pay tribute and to labor under the expanding umbrella. So much more economical than invasion. Busting things up them fixing them is so expensive.
The Yuezhi? The eastern tip of the Indo-European spear, blunted on the Altai Mountains. Steamrollered by the first mass migrations from the eastern steppe. But our boys – the “Indos” – were no slouches when it comes to replacement either. The Out-of-Anatolia agriculturalists, as well as the preceding hunter-gatherers, were pretty much erased from the population of Europe following – or maybe prior to? – the arrival of the warrior ranchers of the western steppe.
I have all three bloods. My Father’s Irish family were half early Hunter Gatherer Red Heads, and half Jasmines, dark Mediterraneans. My Mom’s Irish American family were tall, brown haired, blue eyed Indo-Aryan types.
This article is extraordinary:
https://im1776.com/2021/07/27/as-south-africa-so-the-world/
Chinese have colonized the northern most province of South Africa, and they are registered as Black so they get all the economic advantages. But more: any Black or White police must learn Mandarin!
What’s a Jasmine?
Yes, the Irish have been quite accommodating throughout history – except among themselves…
“while we circle the drain”
And while we circle the drain we are self-selecting for extermination like Texas Republican official H. Scott Apley did. Apley, may he rest in peace, was a raging critic of masks and the vaccine, who just died in the hospital from coronavirus. There are lots of numbers being thrown around, but it appears the following are accurate percentages, at least for the USA:
Unvaccinated: 1.7% risk of death
Vaccinated: .0007% risk of death
Unvaccinated: 33% risk of long term symptoms
Vaccinated: virtually 0% risk of long term symptoms
In the short term, as for vaccination:
.0005% risk of extreme vaccine reaction
99.9995% risk of no extreme reaction
In the long term, this is true:
100% of the vaccinated will die.
100% of the unvaccinated will die.
Bill, where are you getting these figs?
This does not seem to be what is happening in Israel, where 80% of the population is jabbed.
Furthermore there are no long-term studies yet, so no assertions regarding “in the long term” carry any weight whatsoever.
Provisional Mortality Data — United States, 2020
https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/pdfs/mm7014e1-H.pdf
About 1 in 3 (33.3%) of people infected by Covid have symptoms for six months or more, per the Mayo Clinic:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in-depth/coronavirus-long-term-effects/art-20490351
1.7% of unvaccinated people contracting Covid in the USA have died, to date, per Johns Hopkins University of Medicine:
https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality
.0007% (1,293 of 163,000,000) of vaccinated people have caught Covid and still died, per the CDC. 75% of these were age 65 or older.
https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covid-19/health-departments/breakthrough-cases.html
Which means 99.9993% of vaccinated people who catch “breakthrough” Covid survive. Very important in light of the more contagious Delta variant, which now dominates rising infection rates worldwide.
@bigbill from another Bill:
Very good presentation of data and identifying sources. We need more comments like this.
BTB
BTB: No one expects you to do any serious study about this. But here’s a very short video (under two minutes) that gives screen shots of the CDC website (you can check it out yourself if you have the energy) showing that the Test isn’t over, and that the vaxed are thus de facto guinea pigs.
https://www.barnhardt.biz/2021/08/05/dr-beep-sends-a-good-short-summary-for-anyone-screeching-isssnot-esperuhmentul/
Now how many are dying from the vaccine? Zero? Or thousands? How many injures? Zero? Or hundreds of thousands – with quite possibly shortened lifespans.
Now how many are dying from the vaccine? Judging from comments all over the internet, about 10 billion humans have already died from the vaccine.
Poisoned figs. But he’s right that every one dies.
Unbelievable.
They’ve proven effectiveness by pulling it out of their ass.
No one can prove ‘effectiveness’. Just hilarious.
Yohannon, what sources do you consider reliable for national and global epidemiology statistics?
You people worry too much.
All you need to know is the legal/economic entity known as the USA – and practically every person alive today – exists only because of a 300 year run of massive, almost impossible resource/energy surplus.
Take away the trend line aberration that started around 1700, and what happens as we revert to the historical mean and competition over scarce resources?
Why have all human organizations followed the same top down model for 10,000 years until this wonderful, albeit short term surplus showered over everyone?
Its quite obvious the US and many many institutions will not survive. You dont need to engage in wishful thinking or romantized ideas of rebellion and independence, but rather just quietly prepare going about your business.
The entire edifice and all the woke players need capable men to keep the system going. No energy inputs, no outputs.
Thats why MMT and other non legal entirely short term solutions are being imposed. Its because theres never going to be a fair accounting or settling of accounts.
I know jim knows all of this, which is why im curious that he even bothers to write. To what end or purpose does it serve?
nice post… i think. much agreement.
i think jhk is writing on political issues just as an interesting lens at the moment into long-emergency processes and how they play out monthly, weekly… in the details
Why does Mr. K. write? Maybe because he has to, the same way other artists have to paint, to compose music, whatever. His art is visionary, he peers into the future and tells us what he sees. Glad somebody’s doing that as we steam, full speed ahead, through this fog bank.
His art not only “reflects reality”, it is a delivery mechanism for information. His work provokes discussion, largely among thoughtful people. Glad somebody’s doing that amidst the yammering of parrots.
I think Mr. K. is doing his part to build a world he would like to live in. He’s not the guy with the hammer, or the guy with the wrench, he’s the guy with a pen.
“ Take away the trend line aberration that started around 1700, and what happens as we revert to the historical mean…”
We can never revert back to 1700. In 1700 there was no knowlwedge of energy utilization we have today, no efficient solar panels, no fracking, no LED lights technology, no high tech wind turbines, no tidal power technology, no high tech geo-thermal, no knowledge of thorium nuclear power, etc.
You can’t wake up one day with no oil and lose the accumulated knowledge of non-oil-dependent energy sources. You can’t go back to 1700 when average life expectancy was 35 years or go back to relying solely on hydro, coal, and biomass. Nostalgia much.
lose the accumulated knowledge This has already happened through the entire unrecorded and unremembered history of the human race.
I think that’s a valid argument, Mitchell, but ultimately way too nihilistic. You must have some hope or optimism hidden away somewhere, or you wouldn’t have bothered to read and register here and then post a comment. I’m down with Guy McPherson to a point, but not all the way. It is a shit show, but even a steaming pile of poop brings forth new life.
“The very fine people on the Left don’t believe in a couple of things: reality and the law.”
One of the dictionary definitions of the word “Fine” is, “Consisting of minute particles.” Another definition is, “Very thin, slender”. And one more: “Delicate in texture.”
With this being the case, describing The Left as “fine” is, well… absolutely fine. The brain matter (if one can locate it) in today’s Left is certainly minute particles (that is, if any can be found at all). Very thin and slender is what remains of the Left’s ability to reason and conduct any form of logical, organized adult-like thinking. And, “delicate in texture”? Is there a better way to described the Lost Left than “Delicate”? These of the Opposite of the Right have zero capacity to tolerate ideas and opinions that differ from Theirs and when effectively challenged They fold up faster than the proverbial tent.
As for “reality and the law”… the reality is that the unreal has been deemed real and the law has been rendered unlawful.
“The very fine people on the Left don’t believe in a couple of things…”
It’s easier to identify the only thing the Very Fine People on the Left DO believe in: And that is…The Very Fine People on the Left.
Haha!
Just one nit to pick: they don’t fold up; they kick and scream and bite and scratch and holler “white supremacy!”

Good day youse putrid toxic-dump scumbags.
Is it, though? Is it Good or have your internal organs been glommed with toxic residue from arteries lining micro-tearing (and, therefore, micro-clotting) toxic spike proteins? It can’t be both.
Did you know that some of us hip have taken to referring to Dr Fauxi’s evil Kool-aid as Demon Sperm? This is based on the work by Dr. Stella Immanuel.
How do you do it? Do your lungs feel less efficient now? Doesn’t losing heart muscle 24×7 concern you? I gotta hand it to you. It would drive me batty if I had 80 Trillion Demonic Spermatozoids wreaking complete havoc on my innards. Total loopy I’d go.
I guess that you are far Superior to me, though. Right? Is that the explanation of how you can carry on with your hectic, stressful, busy life in the hustle-bustle of the GTA even though you have been duped into servitude and a slow, painful death? I think that I’d completely quit life if I knew that I had 80 Trillion Demon Sperms in me. Yuck!
80 Trillion is 80 million millions. All doing damage all the time. Creepy, Right?
I mean, it’s all Just hypothetical. I’m not a total dumb-ass who would give up his likeness in God for the privilege of air travel. Only a complete fucking Darwinned moron would do that, Right?
Have a Great weekend!

Do you remember when I successfully predicted that the Summer of 2020 would be chalked full of BLM protests? Well, now I predict massive deaths will start this Fall / Winter as the cumulative damage of 80 Trillion Demon Sperms per total dumb-ass take their toll.
And now they want you to give you a booster-jab. Gee, who’d’ve ever seen that coming? Do you get a little tummy rush when you hear, “booster-jab?” Are you jonesin’ for a booster-jab? Have they reduced you to a dirty Satanic Jizz needle junkie?
If so, the Lord sure does indeed work in mysterious ways, eh?

A quick note:
Ivermectin is avaliable from farm supply stores and veterinary catalogs with no prescription at all.
You can get enough 1% solution to treat a few hundred people for about forty bucks.
But how do you prepare the farm stuff for humans? Inquiring minds want to know.
The horse paste doesn’t taste that bad, but it doesn’t taste like apples.
6.08 g =6080 milligrams gross wt times 0.0187 = 113.696 milligrams in a tube. Doses are usually in the range of .2 mg/kg of your weight.
Thanks soooo Much !!!!!!!!!!
Wilbur and I both Thank You !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, about 6 doses per 6g tube for a 200 pounder.
Well my own ad hoc approach is to squeeze a dot of the liquid Ivermectin onto a thumbnail and then lick it off and wash it down furiously.
So far so good. Ain’t dead yet.
And yes: the taste is wretched but not nauseating.

If they could not provide a SARS2 virus, were they able to produce a flu virus or any other to show what it really is?
I have seen many pictures of Covid autopsies showing the virus, where do these come from?
Seems to me if it is just the flu, or just a bad cold, those viruses should be apparent, right?
https://www.redvoicemedia.com/video/2021/08/freedom-fighter-court-victory-ends-masking-shots-quarantine-in-alberta/
According to the Stew Peters interview of Patrick King, Queen Lizard was hooped as Alberta Gov’t & Ottawa (and, no doubt, London) could not produce any evidence of the existence of COVID SARS 2.
If Patrick King is telling us The Truth (I have not seen this story (in the province next to mine) anywhere else), then they either do not have the virus to provide or they are suppressing it for no Good reason.
These pictures that you have seen, could they be a influenza &/or pneumonia?
As far as I know, once one discounts the fraudulent PCR testing, Influenza A and Influenza B are the only things ever Really found in Real testing.
If Queen Lizard cannot prove the existence of COVID SARS 2, then nobody can. If Queen Lizard will not prove the existence of COVID SARS 2, why is she taking such a bizarre loss in a Court of Law in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada?

The pictures are labeled Covid 19. Google Covid pictures there are hundreds of them, with a coronavirus shape. Electron micrographs have been taken of the s protein in great detail.
Something is causing people to get sick and immune systems to overreact. My question still says, if it is not a new form of coronavirus, and it is a flu or cold, where are the pictures of the viruses involved?
Is Covid a sign of God, a disease with killing capability with no apparent cause?
Hey JAZ. First off: I don’t know. I am Just trying to have us figure out what should be given to us.
Of course anybody can label a picture of anything “COVID” or “Sasquatch.”
PIC – Agreed – there does seem to be a True C element of Pneumonia, Influenza, Covid deaths that are unJustifiably bunched together in an obvious scheme to inflate death counts to induce Fear.
Where are the pictures, indeed! If Patrick King of Red Deer, AB was telling Stew Peters (and us) The Truth then:
1) Queen Lizard does not have the virus. If Lizzie can’t get a copy, nobody can.
2) Queen Lizard will not share the virus. Perhaps Real scientists could reverse-engineer what these sick fucks have done. I don’t know.
3) Some 3rd thing that I cannot imagine.
Something’s amiss unless Patrick King is 1 kick-ass actor / hoaxster.
this today on Hal turners site……
“The United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta has confirmed in writing they do not have any real-life, isolated, purified, sample of the SARS-CoV-2 Virus and cannot provide any records about that virus, which allegedly causes COVID-19.
Over the last several months Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests have been made to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) asking for evidence that CDC has isolated or purified the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
On June 7, 2021, the CDC confirmed (again) in writing they do not have any records showing they have ever isolated or purified the virus that allegedly causes the disease called COVID-19.
These written requests were made by Ms. Christine Massey to CDC/ATSDR FOIA Chief Officer Mr. Robert Andoh, to locate and deliver ANY records, research and/or findings for ANY “viral” isolation and purification (by anyone, anywhere, anytime in the World) from a patient sample, via maceration, filtration and/or the use of an ultracentrifuge . . . what is called the ‘Gold Standard’ for isolating and identifying a pathological micro or nana organism.”

Thank you, WH. That perfectly jives with Queen Lizard also being unable to provide a copy. The whole thing is a con game.
JAZ’s point still stands, though. There does appear to be some new kind of bug that killed the compromised.
Just details though as the jabbed will start dropping from the variants.
Delta Plus is in San Francisco, you know?
Delta Plus. Sounds like the high-octane choice at the gas pumps.
Delta Plus. Booga Booga.
No one has thought outside of the virus box, either.
What if they sprayed cities with something that made people sick and called it Covid19?
This is not unprecedented. It is widely known and articles exist about the CIA spraying the coast of SF with pathogens, causing at least 1 death in 1957.
Interesting they’ve moved straight to “Delta”.
Delta Force, Delta Airlines, Delta Dawn what’s that flower you have on…
But the main reference is found within mathematics:
Delta = change.
Something is or will be changing, in the narrative, in statistics, in virulence, or in the way things will actually unfold from here, hopefully for the better, yet doubtful considering the words and actions of psychopathic morons promoting all this.
Well, the next strain is Covid Echo, then Covid Foxtrot.
I expect they’ll keep this going until they get to Covid Zebra, sometime around the midterm elections in 2022.
For an even more indepth overview (with links) of proof that none of these agencies have isolated the virus, per FOIs, you can go here:
https://www.globalresearch.ca/foi-reveal-health-science-institutions-around-world-have-no-record-sars-cov-2-isolation-purification-anywhere-ever/5751969
Another weird thing (weird to me):
Biden has tied the moratorium on paying rent to **areas** where there are high rates of covid infections/cases/whatever.
IOW, he has basically stated that there is an inverse relationship between paying rent and covid rates (however measured).
That is, higher covid rates lead to less obligation to pay rent.
Isn’t that creating an incentive for keep covid rates high, or to report them as being high? Isn’t actually a *reward* for high local covid rates?
In a normal situation rewards are given for desired outcomes.
Here, a reward is being implicitly offered for an (officially) undesired outcome.
Can’t Biden be accused of incentivizing covid?
I think a lot of people in any income bracket are smart enough to see that it might make sense to *try* to test positive for SARS-Cov-2 just to keep living rent-free.
From this POV it would make sense for landlords to tie continued occupancy to getting jabbed (I know, I know, but the official story is that the jabbed can’t get covid). Surely if a restaurant owner can enforce jabbing, then a landlord can.
And once the tenants are jabbed, surely they can be expected to pay their rent (I know, I know, but the official story is that the jabs work).
Tucker had a cute idea last night: Blacks are the least vaccinated. Any mandates that discriminate against the unvaxed will have a disparate impact against Blacks.
As he said, We’ve destroyed some of the finest private schools in America because of disparate impact. Are we going to turn around and allow it now?
Yet if you allow Blacks to violate protocols, what the use of having them at all? And is that valuing Black lives?
That is an excellent point. Watch the hypocrites lie their way out of it though. Since nothing they say in the first place make sense.
Do you have any natural remedies against ants? Anything non-toxic to make them get lost?
Do you have any natural remedies against ants? Stamping feet on them is natural.
I once surrounded an ant with a ring of tobacco tea (cigarette butts soaked in water). Drove the poor bastard crazy (yes, probably a short ride), running back and forth trying to find the exit. Reckon you could scale that up, or maybe git ya a bag of Redman and take out targets of opportunity.
That’s a real idea, thanks. The little bastards are adept at changing their nests or expanding to new ones. I defeated a smaller colony earlier in the summer. It was very sad to see fewer and fewer. They even sent out little ones. Finally one day there was just one…..
This attack was from an established colony. They have many more scouts and far more energetic.
No. I actually need to find out too, since a lot of them have taken up residence in the cracks in my driveway.
Oh wait, I think peppermint oil is a big deterrent.
As long as they stay in the driveway, what is the problem?
Are they fire ants?
The mass of ants in an average cubic yard of earth is massive.
Per Edward O. Wilson, the ant man.
Well I tend to let them be, but one day they were amassing there in the 1000s and I had to wash my car, so – bye bye to most of them. I’m guessing a lot of them lived, they just experienced a tsunami.
I tend to be the person saving bugs from the swimming pool and bird baths, so I didn’t enjoy it.
The are in my kitchen cabinets! They must die the death.
Outside I try to let nature be nature. Indoors, I’ll turn a blind eye to the occasional small jumping spider – I figure we’re on the same side – everybody else, a quick merciful death. Defending your territory – it’s only natural.
@Yohannon re ants – diatomaceous earth powder from pool supply company. Of course it if rains you have to reapply but it dries out their exoskeleton. When we were framing in our off grid retreat we sprinkled it along the walls before sheetrock. Nary an ant or bug to be seen.
Let the spiders be, especially jumping spiders. Sometimes they even appear to making friends with you. Fascinating little bastards.
It’s not a natural remedy, but Combat ant killing gel really, truly works. Just a few small blobs. Irresistible to the ants. Kills the colony. Get it at most hardware stores.
It’s not about outcomes, it’s about incomes.
“ Take away the trend line aberration that started around 1700, and what happens as we revert to the historical mean…”
We can never revert back to 1700. In 1700 there was no knowlwedge of energy utilization we have today, no efficient solar panels, no fracking, no LED lights technology, no high tech wind turbines, no tidal power technology, no high tech geo-thermal, no knowledge of thorium nuclear power, etc.
You can’t wake up one day with no oil and lose the accumulated knowledge of non-oil-dependent energy sources. You can’t go back to 1700 when average life expectancy was 35 years or go back to relying solely on hydro, coal, and biomass. Nostalgia much.
you mean the accumulated knowledge of how to exploit oil resources?
might get lost if the oil does
Tucker’s been in Hungary this last week, observing how a real nation functions. He even got to sit down with Orban.
He was at the border fence and was able to see the police catch two illegals who had gotten in from Serbia. They were briefly and politely detained. Their names and pictures taken. Then they were led into a room – for processing, right? Not a bit of it! The room led back to the fence. The gate was opened and they were put on the other side of it.
That’s it. The simplicity of how a real Nation acts, always in its own interests. But what about the two Syrians or whatever they were? What about them? Who cares. They weren’t invited and their welfare is not the business of the Hungarian State. They came all the way thru Serbia so they were put back into Serbia, where they have connections or where the Government is compromised and stupid enough to help invaders.
Then they were led into a room… – Yo
=============
where they had the shit beaten out of them 😉
The simplicity of how a real Nation acts, always in its own interests. – Yo

Just like individual human beings.
Unless individuals sacrifice for the Nation, it will die. The death of the cell is health of the organism. The bee dies once it stings, but it dies to save the colony. Is this not sweet?
Thus you are defeated.
People often do stupid things not in their own interests – like helping people who hate them.

The fact is, as I’ve now said multiple times, is that various labs have isolated the covid virus. Don’t believe me? Go on-line and find the sources. You people are either too fucking lazy or have an empty spot in your brain where judgment usually sits in other people. Or you are shitheads ala Nightowl (you’ve called me just as bad, so here’s back at ya), and O.J. Squawkins, just like the original Juice who murdered his wife.

You’re the Beantown Shill. You think that you get to determine what I may say with my Free Speech. Yes, you are a dumb-ass.
I saw that and figured it was some gargantuan exaggeration by you. But he actually said it. Wow. Vicious.
Says the one who is racially prejudiced, has said nasty things about Jews and other groups of people, particularly women. You really are a piece of work.
People exercising Free Speech will say things that offend you. That is how Free Speech works, Shill.
Maybe you’d be more comfy blogging with the jabbed, dumb-ass.
Hey Shill.
1) It is up to the poster making claims to provide the link(s) to back up what he/she is claiming. That’s the way it works. You don’t Just make claims and tell your adversary to prove it for you or else they are lazy. I know! Fuck you.
2) If the Beantown Shill has proof of the Covids, it sure is strange that Queen Lizard & the CDC do not, don’t ya think?

O.J. Simpson … O.G. Hawkins. Wow! Brilliant.
The Corona Ausschuss just discussed this again today. Present was Wolfgang Wodarg, the guy who single-handedly ended the Swine Flu, showing that the entire narrative and vaccine push was a hoax.
The virus has never been isolated. In Alberta, they just lifted all restrictions as a result of a court case in which the Province could not prove it had been isolated in court.
You are not only an idiot, Bill, you are an enabler. A pathetic worm.
And what, you’ve assigned yourself to be the robin? You are fucking crazy.
No, Shill. NO has proven himself to be a fountain of accurate information as The Pyramid Capstone continues its plans unabated.
It is you that is fucking crazy, Shill. You thought that 3 Manhattan skyscrapers could be dropped by 2 airplanes 1 Tuesday and you are now having your head snapped as you finally face The obvious Truth:
They own everything and they now want a whole lot less of us “useless eaters.”
D’uh!
You cannot even form a cohesive argument.
You run as soon as you are challenged.
Because you are weak.
BTB,
I make ungrounded assertion, and you have to prove it’s right and document it.
@ Islander:
I did in a prior post to Mary several days or so ago, but she ignored it, sorry I’m not so ego-driven as to save all my comments. Not my fault that people don’t read or take postings seriously. Most of my recent angry comments are a result of frustration that no one actually acknowledges evidence I posted when I posted it. They just castigate me because truth doesn’t seem to be important to them, they’re more interested in calling me names.
So no, I’m not going back again to show I did provide sources. The rest of my frustration is directed to the assholes who call me names, like Night Owl and O.J. Squawkins, who IMO are bad people.
In a post above at 6: 28 pm yesterday, Squawkins needled vaxxers by stating that they’ll all die soon. He started off the post by addressing the vaxxers as “Good day youse putrid toxic-dump scumbags.” The rest of the comment was just as evil, yet people call ME names. Where are all you good people who don’t call him on this shit?
On top of all this, he claims to follow God. Yet he’s going against much of Jesus’ (the son of God) tenets, like turn the other cheek. He says he’s done some bad things in his life and is afraid he could be going to Hell. As if that’s a good excuse to act despicably. Well, he’s right about one thing – he’s on the fast track to Hell.
Historically on this blog, I’ve been very polite for the most part, but no more. I’m gonna fight fire with fire. Sorry to rant to you. You seem to be ok.
I don’t believe in name calling, unless someone really asks for it.
Regarding the consequences of jabbing/not jabbing, only time will tell. As *I* have stated here, in case you missed it. IMO any versoin of “you’ll be sorry, you’ll be dead” etc. should be banned from this blog.
Time, and the results that only time can bring, are the crux of all that is wrong with the current jab regime and the accompanying destruction.
Life doesn’t stop for death. LIfe doesnt’ stop for pneumonia. Not for cancer. Not for car accidents and deaths. Not for earthquakes. Not for tsunamis. Not for any other cause of death.
That is the meaning of let the dead bury the dead.
Only for covid is life being stopped. Anyone who doesn’t ask why is brain-dead.
Meanwhile people have to make choices, and the info available is majorly curtailed and distorted. Because there IS a campaign on to force people to accept medication that they refuse. This campaign includes suppressing information that is needed for each individual’s informed consent to participation in a trial. (Now the FDA is saying thtat they might “approve” the jabs after all. The idea that anyone with half a brain would be impressed by such childish abracdabra on the part of the FDA is a real insult to the American populace.).
The most basic reason for rejection of the jabbing campaign is not “the science” but in fact the reasons outlined by Brad Thomas. Forcing medication on a person is immoral, is a form of battery.
The MSM are full of IMO imflammatory assertions, utterly evicence-free, in order to psychologically bully those who do not want to accept an unwanted medical treatment to do so. For instance , yesterday I saw a story on the front page of the Boston Globe about correcting and countering “misinformation” (a new Orwellian term, that) on the part of those who don’t want the shots by convincing them that the shots are safe, “as research shows.”
there is no research that “shows” this because the trials have been rushed so that only abou 10% of required testing and trials have been done.
Now, when a commenter on a blog makes similar assertions as are rife in the MSM and is any documentation of said assertions is similarly absent, then the onus is on that commenter to come up with the goods—not on the doubter asking for documentation. I won’t comment on the egos and rantings of some other posters here.
Sorry, I meant Brandon Smith. I don’t know where Brad Thomas came from!!!
Reading too much, I expect.
You have no credibility whatsoever, Bill.
You are also a sack of shit.
To you I am. But what does that make you? A vile pile of bile.
I simply point out the truth. You are covert narcissist, who attempts to gatekeep the forum by posing as rational and polite.
Meanwhile, you couldn’t make an argument if your life depended on it.
Respect is earned.
If you’re making the claim that covid19 has been isolated, it’s up to you to provide a link to it, not us.
Recent history looks to my eyes like a succession of lunacies each of which may have been unable to topple Western Civ on its own given built-in social inertia and maybe resilience plus the raw survival instinct of ordinary people, but each following on the heels of the last may have the cumulative momentum to put this thing to where vanished civilizations go iedirt mounds.
Consider the miseries of the Industrial Revolution which had a hand in creating both communism and fascism, and the two world wars with tens of millions dead and wounded, and then the rise of neo-liberalism which ruined the lives of huge swathes of people of the formerly developed West. And now what one guy deems a step back to pre-Enlightenment authoritarian modes of thinking coming out of university campuses, of all places. How far can we be from witch burnings?
But what would we expect? I mean our best and brightest brought us viral gain-of-function research. Just between us, does this look to you like the product of disturbed minds? Because that’s how it looks to me.
Our allegedly best and brightest hatched all this craziness and now they’re back to incubating more. They don’t believe in reality? Well, their grip on it has been pretty weak for a while now, accommodating only what conforms to their own self-justifying narratives. The trouble of course is that reality doesn’t give a shit about narratives.
I’ve been following most of your comments since you’ve been posting recently. I like them. You very much remind me of another commenter by the name of Volodya. Are you him (or her)?
Does it really matter if the virus has/hasn’t been isolated? After 20 months of this “pandemic,” who really thinks it’s been worth all the trouble we’ve instigated? Do you, Bill? Keep your eyes on the prize.
The prize for me is determining the truth. Truth=beauty, AFAIC. So to me, it’s very important to know whether or not the virus has been isolated. That alone is worth the effort.
Okay, fine, no problemo. But lockdowns, illegal “mandates,” killing our culture??? And on and on, all in the name of safety? You can’t be down with all that. Can you?
The Shill says Truth=beauty while also trying to shutdown Free Speech about the Facts of the Biggest historical event of our lives!
A fella can’t make this shit up!
Ehhhhhh … What a maroon!
– Bugs Bunny
Proton,
“I mean our best and brightest brought us viral gain-of-function research. ”
Really? I don’t think so.
Fauci and his pals are very good infighters and clever bureaucrats. Definitely not my idea of “best and brightest.”
People like Malone, Mullis, fuellmich, Wodarg, Hoffe, Bryan Ardiss, etc. are “our best and brightest.”
The Cootie-19 [mis-] [dis-] information campaign ascends the heights of silliness.
The “Trust the Science” approach seemingly lacking in effectiveness or “punch” (cue “gain of function” slasher scene), the White House has now enlisted the support of superior “experts” namely, Tik Tok influencers, in order to convince reluctant teeny-boppers to get the needle.
Would I kid you about this, Sid?

Transgender person vs Vietnam Vet store owner. Which one do you support and why? Show your work.
The Vet had a sign that said Dr Seus says chicks don’t have dicks. The giant Tranny objected. The big Softy! Reinforcements are coming. The Storeowner may be doomed, depending on how close this WA town is to Seattle.
He’s toast if he’s close to Seattle. I side with the store owner, although not sure why he felt the need to provoke people by putting up that sign.
Just saw it on yahoo. His store is toast at the very least.
Why? Because he’s a fighter. And that means taking the offensive. And in this case that means being offensive.
Unwise given the current regime? Oh, very!
I Believe that we will see more and more men Just say, “Fuck it!”
Right is Right. Consequences be damned.
It is high time for the goddamn weirdo’s to be provoked. Normal/exceptional people have been provoked for far too long without pushing back. Time for a change. Reclaim the country, reclaim sanity.
Chris Martenson and then Bret Weinstein convinced me well over a year ago that Corona was engineered. Ever since, I have known in my heart that it’s time to take arms against this sea of troubles. They’re killing us, both directly and indirectly, especially the old and infirm. So, everybody over, say, 60 years old, take arms and descend on DC and other strategic places. If they kill you, you die a hero and a martyr. Isn’t that better than watching our nation, our culture, circle the drain?
We Will Not Comply: A Campaign Against Medical Tyranny
August 5, 2021
By Brandon Smith
I have been feverishly writing lately on covid mandates and vaccine passports issues, and I’m sure most readers understand why – We are currently at the cusp of a great conflict against the powers that be; people who are exploiting the (mostly manufactured) covid crisis for unprecedented political and economic control. And when I say “manufactured”, I mean that there is no crisis, no need for mandates, no need for lockdowns and no need for vaccine passports.
We are dealing with a virus that around 99.7% of people will easily survive according to the medical establishment’s own studies and stats as well as numerous independent studies, yet, for some reason we are being bombarded with fear mongering from the media and from governments.
Why is the only solution being suggested to the general public involve us giving up all of our freedoms and medical autonomy? Why is 99.7% of the population supposed to lock down, mask up and submit to an experimental mRNA vaccine with no long term testing data to prove its safety? Why don’t the 0.26% of people that are truly at risk of dying from the virus simply take precautions or stay home while the rest of us get on with normal life? Hell, I would be fine with contributing to a fund to help support the 0.26% at risk, to help their families and help with their medical bills.
The Federal Reserve and other central banks burned trillions of dollars in stimulus measures and PPP loans to keep businesses from going completely bankrupt, and to keep jobless “non-essential” workers from starving during the initial shutdowns. But , we could have simply kept the economy going this entire time and paid a fraction of that cost helping the tiny minority of people that would actually suffer from the illness.
Yes, that’s right, I’ll say it again and again because I STILL to this day see the media and misinformed covid cultists continually claim the death rate of covid is much higher. It is not. The median Infection Fatality rate of covid is ONLY 0.26%. This is a FACT. This is the science according the vast majority of medical studies out there on the IFR. Let me repeat: The entire world is being locked down and told we have to give up our inherent human liberties because 0.26% of the population might get more than sniffles and brain fog from a covid infection. Why?
Well, that’s easy; because the covid response and restrictions have nothing to do with public health and everything to do with public control.
This essay is a little different from what I usually write in that it is not so much an appeal to pure reason or pure science and more an appeal to principle. I have been asked by many readers lately if it is not better to argue against pandemic mandates based on ideals and principles rather than hammering away at the science. I think it’s important to do both, but let’s take a moment to consider the moral question and the moral question alone. To do that we must ask some simple questions:
Who has the right to control your medical decisions? Who is qualified to control your constitutional right to life, liberty and the right to seek out prosperity? Who should be given the power to tell you what you can say, where you can work, where you can buy, where you can sell, where you can walk, where you can travel, what you must believe in?
The answer is NO ONE, except yourself that is. But of course, the covid cult and the people that benefit from the pandemic will claim that your rights no longer apply when you are “putting the lives of others at risk”. It’s the old social contract argument – You are “part of a society”, therefore society has expectations that supersede your rights. This is all nonsense, but it’s a classic strategy used by every totalitarian in modern times. It’s never been about what “society” wants, it’s always only ever been about what the tyrants want.
As I have noted in numerous articles with endless scientific facts and evidence, no one who wants to remain free from covid mandates or vaccine passports is putting anyone else at risk. Again, the median death rate for covid is 0.26% and neither the mandates, nor the masks, nor the vaccines have put a stop to covid infections. Interestingly, it has been the states with the harshest lockdowns and mask restrictions that had the highest rates of infection for the past 18 months. Even now, fully vaccinated people are getting covid by the thousands in “breakout cases”, and some of them have died. Infections and deaths dropped off in January long before the vaccines were widely manufactured. Only 5% of the US population was vaccinated with a single dose by February. The fact is, the vaccines have achieved nothing.
Even if I was among the 0.26% of people that are at risk of dying, I would NEVER demand that the other 99.7% of the population give up their freedoms and their children’s freedoms just so I might feel a little bit safer. That would be an act of selfish madness.
But lets say for a moment that we set aside all the science that supports the anti-mandate position. What if the death rate of the virus was much higher? What if we were dealing with Ebola or some other nasty pathogen? What if 1 out of 100 people were at risk? What if 1 out of 10 people were are risk? Would medical tyranny and mass lockdowns be acceptable then? The answer is no, they would not be.
Why? Honestly, it’s a matter of who is in power and who is implementing such mandates. Why should we have blind confidence in governments made up of corrupt elitists and globalists? Who are they to look out for our best interests? How are these people qualified to protect the public trust? They are not qualified and will never be.
They do not care about us. They are only interested in serving their own interests and pushing forward their own agendas. Just look at how excited globalist institutions like the World Economic Forum have become, calling the pandemic an “opportunity” to force through their “Great Reset” agenda. These ghouls are not the type of people the public wants in charge of micromanaging their lives.
Thus, it is left up to the individual to protect themselves how they see fit, but the establishment tells us we are not capable of doing this. Rather, we must defer to their “better judgment”. They are supposedly smarter than us all, and as “benevolent” technocrats only they have the knowledge and righteousness to determine the course of every living person’s future.
Globalists like Gideon Lichfield at MIT told us exactly what the plan was in March of 2020 in an article tiled ‘We’re Not Going Back To Normal’. They admit that the goal has always been to institute vaccine passport restrictions that will last for many years to come, if not forever. From the article:
“Ultimately, however, I predict that we’ll restore the ability to socialize safely by developing more sophisticated ways to identify who is a disease risk and who isn’t, and discriminating—legally—against those who are.
…one can imagine a world in which, to get on a flight, perhaps you’ll have to be signed up to a service that tracks your movements via your phone. The airline wouldn’t be able to see where you’d gone, but it would get an alert if you’d been close to known infected people or disease hot spots. There’d be similar requirements at the entrance to large venues, government buildings, or public transport hubs. There would be temperature scanners everywhere, and your workplace might demand you wear a monitor that tracks your temperature or other vital signs. Where nightclubs ask for proof of age, in future they might ask for proof of immunity—an identity card or some kind of digital verification via your phone, showing you’ve already recovered from or been vaccinated against the latest virus strains.”
I say to you that this is the classic philosophy of almost every semi-human monster that has ever lived. This is the ideology of narcissistic sociopaths. The religion of soulless robots. Some of the greatest evils known to mankind have been committed in the name of “the greater good of the greater number”. This mantra cannot be tolerated under any circumstance; it cannot be allowed to infect our nation and supplant our deeper values. Because if it does, we may find ourselves slaves to the system for a very long time.
As I have been warning they would do for the past year, multiple governments are keeping pandemic lockdowns and restrictions in place or they are bringing them back (in the case of the US), and it should be clear to everyone that this circular process of medical tyranny is not going to end. It is never meant to end. The goal of the establishment, of globalists and governments, is to keep the restrictions in place indefinitely.
The mainstream media has consistently attacked the claim that governments would enforce vaccine passports as conspiracy theory. Now they are openly admitting that the plan is to institute vaccine passports and they are vigorously defending it. They are discussing with avid fervor how they might be able to FORCE or compel each and every person to take the jab, even if they don’t want it and even if the jab serves no purpose.
I have my own suspicions of the jab and its true purpose and safety, but lets not forget that the jab is at the very least a stepping stone to the vaccine passports. The passports are the key to everything. Without the passports, medical tyranny cannot be established. Without the passports they have no leverage over the population to dictate the fundamental aspects of our lives. They NEED the passports in order to get their “Great Reset”. Without a “papers please” social credit system in place, their Reset will fall apart.
It is therefore imperative above all else that the vaccine passports are never allowed to take root. The program must be stopped and destroyed.
I am not a major “influencer” in conservative or liberty movement circles. I am not a big YouTube personality or a media Juggernaut. I have no big business backing or deep pockets to spur a national campaign. I’m not particularly fond of public speaking though I have learned to deal with it. I am just a writer with a love for the values of freedom, the values of reason and in many cases the values of faith that give humanity meaning. And, what I see is a deadly serious need; a need for an organized front line against the storm of dictatorship that is on our doorstep.
What I suggest is simple – A national campaign against the medical passports. Globalists, socialists and corporatists understand the concept of “pressure” and how to apply it to get what they want. I believe we must also learn how to wield pressure in the opposite direction. It is not enough to sit in our homes isolated from each other content in the knowledge that millions of other people feel the same way we do. We must also take action.
We must send a message: WE WILL NOT COMPLY!
I’m not sure that any single person out there has the “clout” to drive this campaign alone, and it’s probably better that way. What is required is a mass movement united by principles, not a movement tangled together by a cult of personality.
There are many ways to do this, from simple actions to more complex strategies. Any liberty activist can send a message through signs, bumper stickers, advertisements, billboards, etc., reminding the establishment that we will refuse to submit to the jab or the vaccine passports under any circumstances. They need to understand that there is nothing they can do that will make us change our minds. Nothing.
The primary strategy of the covid cult has been to work with larger corporations to demand proof of vaccination (vaccine passports). We must let these companies know in no uncertain terms that we will cut off all consumer support for their businesses. We will not work for them and we will not give them a penny of our money. Instead, we will approach smaller local businesses, find out if they are a part of the ‘We Will Not Comply’ campaign, and if they are, then we will support them instead. It’s time to teach these corporations a lesson and put them out of commission by removing our money and our labor from their pockets.
The next strategy by the establishment has been to mandate vaccinations for government workers. Again, mass walkouts are the answer. Let them sweat by losing half of their workforce. And then maybe take them to court. Bury them in lawsuits while strangling their ability to operate.
Eventually, the Biden Administration is going to attempt federal level lockdowns and vaccine controls. It’s only a matter of time. This is where organization is vital. Counties and states with majority conservatives and liberty advocates must band together and once again say “We Will Not Comply”. If your state government is on board and defying Biden then that will be extra helpful, but do not make the mistake of assuming that state governments alone will protect you. You must be organized at a local level, with your community and local businesses ready to make a stand. This must start now, before it is too late.
Finally, if the covid cult decides to pursue direct force as an option, we must be ready to fight back. Without local organization at minimum, defending ourselves will be difficult or impossible. This means bringing back an old standby of the Founding Fathers: The militia.
There is a time for preparation and a time for taking risks. Without risk there can be no freedom. We are quickly approaching a time in which gamblers and true believers could decide the fate of the world for the next century. A grassroots and organic movement needs to be assembled to fight back against the rising tide of totalitarianism. Each of us can only do our own small part, but together, in concert, I believe we can stop medical tyranny and the Reset in its tracks and even reverse the damage done.
I believe we are living here now at this crossroads for a reason. I believe we are meant to be here; that we are being given a chance to be the right people in the right place at the right time. I believe that we can end this evil, but only if we dare to try. It begins with one simple step: Telling the world “We Will Not Comply!” And then, we must follow through on our promise.
Yoho: They’re creating a world not worth living in – even if you survive the first few jabs.
great stuff
Indeed. It is what anyone just above midwit IQ range has been saying for over a year.
But the information above was not disseminated through a McMedia outlet, therefore the “rational thinkers” in the population will not accept it.
LOL.
“Think about how stupid the average person is; half of them are stupider than that.”
That is actually median rather than average, NO.
That reminds me of the old stats joke where my cousin moved from Regina to Toronto and thus raised the average IQ of both Saskatchewan and Ontario.
Very good article. Saying all the right things.
He points out that people need to band together before it’s too late…the problem is that most people won’t do anything of the sort until their lives become a living hell. And by then, as he points out, it may be too late.
I compare this to living in a quiet medieval hamlet…and the townspeople can see (with just a little bit of squinting) an organized, armed horde far off in the distance, appearing to come their way. Even if the horde wasn’t coming their way, the people in that hamlet damn well ought to be thinking and preparing as if they were. Or they’ll be run over.
With the overall state of softness we have adopted in our society through decades of relative ease and comfort, we shall likely be run over. Future generations will again learn how to fight. The cycle of human societies.
The difficult part is that with today’s technology and the artfully crafted controls the elite have over it, they may be able to make it damn near impossible to reverse, even when the people, by decades of necessity, are ready.
Power grid goes down, that’s a different story. Easy for “normal” people to focus on what matters then. But definitely not a pretty scenario either way.
Our way of life is not sustainable, and so yes, we have to endure what’s coming, which will be massive.
The more we resist, the more we delay the collapse but it’s going to happen no matter what.
Look at this Covid police state video out of Australia.

Glad to see that the Weston A Price Foundation weighed (comment or perhaps that is called a retweet).
Where are our enablers? What no comments?
Come out, worms. Let’s hear from you.

This is only possible because of the idiots who keep complying and don’t question it.
Perhaps the Great Reset is just a dyslexic call for Get Erased?

maybe both?

Im getting a sense that many here dont know about jims primary thesis, which was articulated in a series of books written over 10 years ago.
Not only did he talk, he also walked, by buying a small working property in NW. audiences that attended his lectures were of like mind, late middle age intellectuals who believed “yes we can”.
It didnt matter that hayek disciples like myself kept pointing out that an expanded govt will establish the apparatus a tyrant will utilize against the very people who created it.
So what happened? Well, here we are … but with the added benefit of experience as everyone who attempted to grow and become self sufficient soon realized the utter futility.
today we see how the “real” truth becomes evident, that perhaps other types of people were reading jims books and attending his lectures. You know, the psycopaths taking notes on not only the stark facts, but also the nature of the soft hippiies who thought they were the smartest ones stridently discussing “solutions”.
Ps there arent any magic unicorns and rainbows to save us. Eroei aka the 2nd law proves and demonstrates the point very well.
The fact is we and our institutions are an aberration – we shouldnt even be here. All of our expectations and entitlements are born of luxury, a temp one off deal. The outrage is merely the expression of people who cannot see over the event horizon.
We are returning to a rigid hierarchy; those fighting or resisting will eventually die off, leaving new generations trained to obey. I dont like it, but i also understand the motivation. Its the only way the human race can survive.
You are incorrect. There is God and Satan. They are Real.
The future of Man made in God’s image is glorious. TruStory

Thank you, jim e. That was perfect.
The World seemed so Hopeful in 1979.
I might add that an alternative scenario would be central states (eg USA) failing, falling and dividing, with control over nukes devolving to regional alliances.
This of course would lead to nuke exchanges as the resource wars really begin in earnest.
So pick your poison: comfortable, managed serfdom or freedom and independence roaming a radiated landscape.
Or the promised 1,000-year reign of Jesus Christ of Nazareth here on Earth. A reign where death is no more and the lion and the lamb lie side-by-each in Peace.
There’ll be a pretty rugged 7-year haul between here and there, granted.
The Truth is unstoppable. We all know that.
There will be Justice. We all know that too.
mitchell, my understanding of Hayek and classic economic liberalism is sketchy, but I think JHK is close to his thinking. For example he talks about price discovery, how the economy is so distorted it’s stopped doing that function.
Classic economic liberalism would be another way to call capitalism with some rules and limits, as opposed to neo-liberalism, also known as the vampire squid in the words of M Taibbi, right?
Even with some rules and limits, capitalism brought us where we’re at now, right? In terms of resource depletion, overpopulation, environmental disaster. It’s irrelevant at this point, but maybe both JHK and you were wrong in believing a domesticated capitalism was the answer. Perhaps capitalism cannot be domesticated and is a rule of the universe that just like water flows downhill, capital flows uphill.
You make good observations. I found the first part a bit confusing, the hippies and all that.
I’m not optimistic re serfdom or total destruction. But there may be shades of grey ahead, regional differences. Let’s eat, drink and be merry while we can!
Its just the 5 stages – so many are still at denial and bargaining.
Look to history – why were all human pre 1700 societies top down with specific castes, jobs and duties?
Because natural selection developed these system as the most effective in terms of scarce resource allocation, including cultivation, extraction and availability *combined* with collective defensive protection. Iow, continuation of the groups and species.
It was only thru the incredible discovery of energy surplus that allowed for the mfg of firearms that in turn provided individuals the ability to wield equal force vs established govt armies.
It also trivialized resource production, with amazingly easy ways to cultivate, process and store food stuffs. The end result is of course the infamous hockey stick graph of human population growth.
But it was all just a temp aberation – we never set anything aside for future scarcity. Or did we? Did certain ptb come to realize the dumb animals would never get it, so they simply went ahead with their plans?
Thats what i see – you dont have to project, but merely recognize what they are plainly saying. And if you give yourself some time to think, what would you do?
Thats the acceptance stage. You can see how the whole thing is playing out, the motivation behind the tactics, and the longer term strategy of how future societies are to be ordered.
Correct. I agree. Concentrated fossil energy was a game changer.
“And if you give yourself some time to think, what would you do?” – the same I’ve been doing: cultivate both community and independence, and cultivate carrots.
Mitchellc,
I don’t disagree with you.
But I also take on board a comment up-thread regarding energy.
We may never know what could have been if elites had not sequestered huge amounts of all types of resources for profit—land, money, energy. Scinetific research has also been channeled into deployment for either war or profit.
The promise of renewables was technologies for distributed generation. But instead, international energy combines have also grabbed control of this field and are creating monstrous energy plants on the model of centralized high-intensity fuels such as oil, but for use with low-intensity energy sources such as wind. In fact, the most powerful renewable energy source, wave and ocean energy, has hardly been tapped by anyone.
So, my point is that centralized and ever-expanding governance structures have benefited the few at the expense of the many. So IMO that may be evolution, but it may also be some kind of toxic mutation of ape/human societies. Most animals’ social structures are not hierarchical. Seems like that was an “invention” of the greater and lesser apes. Maybe a result of the apes’ resource greed and rapaciousness? Or just a fancy way of jostling for sexual partners?
“Most animals’ social structures are not hierarchical.”
I beg to differ, Islander. Remove the word, not, and I totally agree.
The error in saying that the herbivores have harems is that only the bucks, rams, stallions etc think that – the females don’t.
Which is why the males spend all their summer fighting and ..err, fertilising but neglect eating.
Therefore they die off in a northern winter, and next Spring a new lot of rambunctious males begin jostling all over again.
The females don’t give a fig.
When humans tried that it was quickly found necessary to castrate, physically or psychically the majority of males.
Then religion was discovered, slightly less messy and infinitely adaptable, depending upon who is on top of the greasy pole.
I tend to agree with the feudal endgame idea, but it won’t solidify until many deadly events have passed beforehand. Gotta get through the bottleneck first.
Im getting a sense that many here dont know about jims primary thesis, which was articulated in a series of books written over 10 years ago.
Perhaps some. But overall, I think most here are well aware of the worldview JHK has consistently articulated over the years.
The problem is the world went insane 18 months ago…so some rules, while they may still apply, are not of concern for the time being. That’s why people here are talking about the way of things within a different context.
Mango, exactly. Of a sudden, rail restoration and compact urbanism have been displaced by, let’s say, more urgent matters.
I think it’s too late. If we had invested in rail and smart zoning and all that 30 yrs ago, that would be good, but we didn’t and that’s that. Won’t get done, except maybe in limited local ways.
Horses, mules and donkeys will be in vogue in short order. Better learn at least the basics of horsemanship and its peripheral arts.
Not likely.
Shelter in Place more like.
You priced a team of heavy horses Lately ???????????
Mt. Hope………….
4 yr olds, matched, $13,900………..
times 2
Mini ponies / at Unidila……….
$5000 and up………..
Mennonite Boy told me last night……
As a fast moving Buggy went by as we talked…………
$14,000 for the horse………
$7000 for the buggy
Most are headed to feedlots across the north border……
fattened up, put on a ship and are hanging by the time they reach asia
They will get us…….. One way or another

Re horses and donkeys and mules, I agree!
For a good look at what life for like for a traveler completely dependent on his horse, and on care for his horse every night of his travels, see Frederick Law Olmstead’s The Cotton Kingdom.
Olmstead provides a day by day account that included the challenge not only of finding a place to stay overnight himself, but also of getting his horse fed, rubbed down, and stabled for the night.
Imagine the cost/price, WH, after TSHTF. Better have something real good to trade, at least initially.
Islander, thanks for the book recommendation. Will do. There’s really a lot to know and practice. I don’t see groundswell of interest, though. Mistake.
There are 1000s of horses at horse rescues. They cost an adoption fee. Especially in the south, where horses are abandoned on a regular basis.
Mary……..
As was said By an old horseman to me……
The “Cheapest” art of owning a horse,
Is the initial purchase.
Most (not all) of the rescue horse’s are Way past their prime.
Health issues, chronic hoof issues, heaves……..
You name it……..
Thats why a team of 4 yr olds, broke and in their prime
Brought $28,000 (not including commission or trucking)
Tho…… The seller did throw the harness in when they reached
$12,000
There are “Very Few” people left today (outside of a few select groups) That would even know where to begin harnessing a horse, let alone know the amount of skill involved in working them
Been there, done it, and miss them dearly !!!
Wilburs dad !!
Part of owning !!

That IS bizarre.
It could also be yet another trick.
I was thinking that too, Mary. It is possible that Queen Lizard said, “OK, Alberta opens up. Then I want those cowboys & cowgirls dropping like flies in September.”
Last night I put together a bit of practical advice for scrapping, to share here. I wrote it a text program and tried to paste it, but it didn’t work. I tried a few things but still can post it.
I wonder if any of you has had the same problem and how to fix it. This box used to accept paste function. Do you think maybe the admin changed it to not accept it, in other words, you have to type it here not paste it?
“cannot post it”, sorry.
Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V works just fine for me here, not sure what you’re experiencing…
It may be too long. I tried to post it here and could not either. I’ll try dividing it in shorter chunks.
Scrapping is the practice of getting paid to recycle metals. For the purposes of these notes, I’m grouping the practice of collecting building materials, appliances, furniture, and any other discarded items for personal use or to sell in venues other than a scrapyard under the same umbrella.
…and when you do own rental property.. all the very fine people in government go into business with you and help themselves to some of your slim profit margin.
Taxes, insurance, utilities, inspections are almost double because now you are considered a “commercial” venture.
Like a boat, the two happiest days is when you buy rental property and when you get rid of it.
most difficulties for rental property management are in urban areas right now
i view landlording as a pretty cynical enterprise, as it encourages development of a kind of serf-class within one’s own community. shitting where you sleep and all…
but these are cynicism-inducing times

I appreciate the blog owner’s, and many commenters’ efforts to dissect the massive clusterfuck unraveling before our eyes. They help me make sense of things, to a point. What I mean is that I’ve known that the dice have rolled, alea jacta est, for a long time. I’ve done my best to be prepared and self sufficient over the years since I started reading Kunstler and others years ago. Not as an island, but as part of my family, my circle of friends, and my community, and not focused solely on “things to have” such as canned goods and ammo, although those are important too, but in “skills that may be useful to my tribe” as well.
In that spirit, I would like at least a part of the excellent writing here to deal with practical advice. For example, communications. I know almost nothing about ways to stay in touch in a crisis situation such as EMP events, intrusive surveillance and censorship, or grid failures. There’s people here from many different backgrounds, and I’m sure some of them could point me in the right direction. Ham radio? Land lines viability? Couriers? Messenger pigeons? Dial-up internet? Since one “has to be the change he wants to see in the world”, I won’t talk about politics, the damn virus, race, gender, war scenarios or the Decline of the West today. Instead, I’ll offer a bit of knowledge, in hopes of others also sharing their observations in the future about other useful topics for survival and self sufficiency. Here’s what I know about scrapping:
Scrapping is the practice of getting paid to recycle metals. For the purposes of these notes, I’m grouping the practice of collecting building materials, appliances, furniture, and any other discarded items for personal use or to sell in venues other than a scrapyard under the same umbrella.
These twin practices of mining the refuse of a rich society are generally easier and more profitable in high density human habitation areas. The richer, the better, it goes without saying, but middle class and even some working class neighborhoods can be worth the effort. The more rural and sparsely inhabited an area, the harder it is to scrap, for several reasons. The equation to consider is “less miles driven to more items collected equals higher profit to less time invested”. Rural areas tend to be poorer and folks, few and far apart to start with, are usually more spendthrift and less likely to discard useful items. There’s also an abundance of mom and pop operations in small rural towns, specializing in fixing engines and appliances, mending furniture and clothes, and generally working towards extending the life of fridges, bicycles and such.
In my case, I migrated to a low population area of my state recently, after decades spent in a tightly packed urban-and-sprawl zone, so I’m not doing it anymore. I have to admit that I never depended on full time scrapping for an income. For me, it was one of many tools to stay afloat in lean times, when my own crops would fail, or there wouldn’t be enough work managing other farms or farmers’ markets, or even landscaping or construction gigs, all on a contractor basis, never as a job. To be honest, I haven’t had a “job” as commonly understood in a long time, and I intend to keep it that way. You could, too, with a bit of ingenuity and research.
I used to keep my eyes open when driving around, that’s all. Pick up this and that, bring it back to the farm, put some time into the pile now and then, process and refine treasures found, make a trip to the scrapyard and come back several hundred dollars richer every time. The key element to keep in mind here is “process”. A truckload of unrefined items will bring just a tiny fraction of the $ earned by a load similar in weight and volume, but processed into its higher-paying components: brass, copper clean, dirty or in wiring, aluminum in different grades, cast or in cans, compressors and electric motors, batteries, etc. Anything not falling within any of these specialized categories sought by yards falls within the general bracket of “white goods” (steel appliance casings, ferrous metals in general, anything that has a high metal content and hasn’t been separated, from grills to wheelchairs)
Yard operations differ in prices paid, clientele, and professionalism. Commodity prices also fluctuate. We’re still in the fat years here in advanced, wealthy societies such as the US, but there’s signs of change as compared to previous years. Almost all of US scrap used to be sent to China & other sweatshops. Xmas lights would be shipped to big box stores, some would find their way to scrapyards, they would be baled and compacted and sent right back there for cheap, highly polluting mining to refine the copper, reuse it and ship it here again in a new form. Lots of child and slave labor, open pit burning, air pollution, dumping in rivers and oceans, etc. Thankfully, more processing and recycling is now done in the US. I see it as a sign of resource depletion (less energy to move commodities between continents, less of the commodities themselves, leading to compliance with stricter local labor and environmental regulations as profit margin improves)
Trying to keep this relatively short, I’ll resort to bullet points now:
• A big, strong man (or woman) is not a sine qua non (“can’t do without”) requirement for successful scrapping. A moderately fit person can harvest a lot of big, bulky items using principles explored by Archimedes and other ancient physicists, such as leveraging. One never lifts a heavy item, but maneuvers it onto a carrying trailer or truck bed using moderate efforts. “Work smart, not hard”.
• A large truck and trailer are, in fact, detrimental to the enterprise in most cases. Especially when fuel prices increase, but also in terms of ease of movement in tight spaces. My old long bed, 4 cyl 2.7L manual trans Tacoma was always more than adequate to the task. A long truck bed often obviates the need for a trailer. The trailer is more useful for hauls of refined product to the point of sale.
• Speaking of POS, always choose the more professional, larger scrapyards. They have employees and magnets sweeping the grounds, so you don’t end with a slow leak on your tires. The criminal element (that is, those desperate enough to steal private or public property to scrap) is less likely to frequent them. Unlike voting (apparently), scrapping requires a photo ID. I’m not sure if a background check is conducted, but when items are reported stolen, police is sure to look at scrapyard records and “round up the usual suspects”. I don’t have a record and never stole anything, so police conducting their business never worried me. The pricing is more transparent, one is less likely to get cheated at the weighing, and you get a detailed printed receipt.
• The bigger operations keep dedicated areas and websites with stock for sale, such as ladders, materials or vehicles deemed too good to be crushed and baled. You’ll find good stuff, with minor nicks, for a fraction of the new price.
• Scrapping was never a full time activity for me, just an insurance during lean times. Had it been a more urgent situation, I’d have looked into trash routes and methodically mined them before the garbage trucks started their rounds. Many full time scrappers take this scientific approach. I reckon some of them are making easily a grand or more per week.
• It’s illegal to poke into residential trash and recycling cans – also, not very useful. Aluminum cans fetch a high price, but are not worth diving into bins and collecting them one by one. One buys most of his beverages in cans (beer & carbonated water in my case). Friends and neighbors can also save their cans for you. A can crusher reduces volume and optimizes transportation. Avoid confrontations. Don’t be an ass, use good judgement. Most people don’t mind someone else picking stuff they’ve thrown away. Some do. Apologize and walk away, don’t escalate.
• The real gold is in large items taken to the curb, and in full size dumpsters, the kind used in construction and renovation jobs. The latter can yield fantastic harvests of lumber, conduit, furniture and other items useful around the farm and the house. Treated lumber with few nails, almost perfect plywood, sinks and toilets in good shape, etc. Also items strictly for scrapping.
• Don’t even bother with e-waste or plastic, the curses of our time. TV’s and computers are worth nothing.
There’s a bit more, but it won’t let me post it. Not for everybody, but someone may benefit.
I know almost nothing about ways to stay in touch in a crisis situation such as EMP events
Interesting subject change.
I am no electrical or nuclear engineer, but I’m pretty sure most things battery-powered would still work, depending on storage and whether they were plugged into anything at the time of the event. CB or Ham radios, walkie-talkies, etc should work. Cell phones may work for a while, until the battery dies. Perhaps (again, I’m not an engineer, so grain of salt), it might be helpful to keep your radios in a faraday cage, so the event would be less likely to fry the hardware components. And make sure you also have a boatload of batteries stored, cuz there ain’t no juice coming out of the outlets.
I believe microwaves are technically faraday cages, or so says a friend who is a mechanical engineering prof….so if you have an old one stored out in the garage, you can put electrical devices in there for some protection.
Pigeons? No clue how that works, but guessing it takes years of training and trial/error experience that people wouldn’t figure out again for decades.
Other than that, smoke signals will work until the end of time. But you’d need to have a code laid out in advance that folks in your community circle would be able to understand.
Perhaps we could get African immigrants to teach us to use talking drums – which are able to send messages for miles. We could of course systematize it, using Morse code or something instead of whatever crude system they used.
Remember in the Nun’s Story, the Blacks told about the coming of Mama Luke and how beautiful she was.
Mirrors too of course.
Why are you so sure African drum communication was crude? You do something for thousands of years, you tend to get pretty good at it. Africans make the best runners – according to this Yoho guy I read sometimes – maybe they make the best drummers too. Some Africans never left Africa, don’t waste your anger on them.
A fellow FF used to raise homing pigeons. He would often take them several hundred miles from home and release them. 9 times out of 10 they would beat him home and he was mostly on the interstate. Amazing. The birds cruise at 60MPH and travel “as the crow flies.” They are only good to fly one direction though. Always back to the roost from wherever they are released. They’ve been used for centuries.
Fascinating.
Also an expensive and time-consuming hobby, to drive hundreds of miles (both ways) to test out their skills.
But cool to know.
Yea, the guy had way too much money and free time. There is money to be made in the hobby though. Betting and breeding.
God gave them GPS.
That’s very interesting, St Elmo’s. I see how they could be used. You go out in search of game, take one, when you find what you’re looking for and reckon the spot is safe you write down the location and send it to your point of origin where others can now follow you. Canary in the coal mine sort of thing. Other uses too.
The amount of specialized knowledge and training hrs would make it impossible for most of us to realistically master the art. But meeting and cultivating a hobbyist in your area, if one exists, may prove useful.
You don’t really need to train the pigeons much. They’re naturally inclined to fly home. The training would be for competition. Long flights and a good diet make for a faster bird. I would be more interested in falconry. Lots of training there but it can put meat on the table.
Wait near the pigeon’s home and then release the falcon to get the pigeon and the message it carries.
If we get a magnetic field reversal, those pigeons may have some serious re-education ahead of them. Solar activity has screwed up several homing pigeon races due to perturbation of the Earth’s magnetic field.
If we get a magnetic field reversal…
…then pigeons will be among the least of our concerns.
Lakes of fire and 1000 ft-high waves would be closer to the top of the list.
Mango, why do you think we would get lakes of fire and ultra-gnarly waves? The Earth’s magnetic field flips, on average, every 200 to 300 thousand years. These reversals are recorded in the lava fields flanking the Mid-Atlantic Rift. A pole reversal might weaken the Earth’s magnetic field, but it won’t strip it away leaving us at the full mercy of the Sun.
So I wouldn’t expect to be reeling in pre-fried bass from my favorite lake, or waxing my board to ride the Really Big One. But those poor homeless pigeons…

The new System will eliminate women who work from the gene pool. Only Traditional women who stay home and welfare moms will be selected for (able to have kids because they don’t get jabbed). There are more of the latter than the former. Thus the vax is an instrument of devolution.

ABSTRACT
Objective To estimate the infection fatality rate of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) from data of seroprevalence studies.
Methods Population studies with sample size of at least 500 and published as peer-reviewed papers or preprints as of June 7, 2020 were retrieved from PubMed, preprint servers, and communications with experts. Studies on blood donors were included, but studies on healthcare workers were excluded. The studies were assessed for design features and seroprevalence estimates. Infection fatality rate was estimated from each study dividing the number of COVID-19 deaths at a relevant time point by the number of estimated people infected in each relevant region. Correction was also attempted accounting for the types of antibodies assessed.
Results 23 studies were identified with usable data to enter into calculations. Seroprevalence estimates ranged from 0.1% to 47%. Infection fatality rates ranged from 0.02% to 0.86% (median 0.26%) and corrected values ranged from 0.02% to 0.78% (median 0.25%). Among people <70 years old, infection fatality rates ranged from 0.00% to 0.26% with median of 0.05% (corrected, 0.00-0.23% with median of 0.04%). Most studies were done in pandemic epicenters and the few studies done in locations with more modest death burden also suggested lower infection fatality rates.
Conclusions The infection fatality rate of COVID-19 can vary substantially across different locations and this may reflect differences in population age structure and case-mix of infected and deceased patients as well as multiple other factors. Estimates of infection fatality rates inferred from seroprevalence studies tend to be much lower than original speculations made in the early days of the pandemic.
Yoho: If you are under 70, your chance of dying from covid is .26% or less. In other words, stop being a faggot. And even if you are older, your chances are probably pretty good. Imagine what you Father would think of your cowardice, wanting all of society to cater to your terror?
Indeed.
So, is it 0.26% of the infected then? Surely not 0.26% of the general population.
The public simply conflates these two enormously different numbers. Once distinguished, we could ask another key question: How many get infected in the first place? Impossible to say, probably – since for most it is little or nothing at all. In other words, they never go to the doctor for it.
Thus we can narrow it down even more, perhaps – what is the percentage of the seriously infected who die. Perhaps that is what the article is talking about, not sure. Those who are hospitalized is where I would draw the line. Others would say anyone who goes to the doctor. In any case, we have to know or the data is meaningless. Definition of terms is the first step in any investigation.
Great post again, YoYo, but the real problem now with CV19 is that – like 9-11 before it – it has ascended to the realm of cultural myth. It’s a virtual religious belief system now, a story of “heroic American warriors battling long odds to overcome an invisible invader that threatens their exceptionalism,” usually farmed as “freedoms.” In addition, psychologically they’re now dealing with confirmation bias with regard to their decision to buy into all this nonsense, and even more so to accept a “vaccine cure” that’s actually anything but. Those who have bought into all this rot will be extremely reluctant to ever admit their mistake and will likely carry those beliefs with them to their graves, no matter how many intellectual and psychological contortions are required to maintain their world views, otherwise known as cognitive dissonance.
Were the government and their associated globalist gangsters not behind this in the first place and actually wanted to settle this problem painlessly for once and for all, the solution would be quite simple: a simple placebo “vaccine” shot for everyone who wanted one that did nothing at all (maybe some added Vitamins and the like to give everyone a brief pick me up), followed by announcing that “the great American way of life had once again been saved from the fire by our great and courageous leaders and technological prowess,” or some such nonsense.
But of course they’re doing nothing like that at all, are they? Therein lies the tale. Statistics are so easily manipulable these days and so many people are either numb to them or don’t understand them anyway that they’re pretty much useless. Changing minds using statistics is therefore a waste of time.
Yes, like the landing at Normandy Beach. Damn Natsies….
No one knows how many are infected. There is no test for it, and people without symptoms have never been referred to as ‘cases’ until 2020.
With all of the stories on Hungary appearing on conservative web sites these days, I decided to check its deaths from the covid-19 virus. It turns out that Hungary has the highest covid-19 death rate in Europe per million population and the second highest in the world after Peru. Hungary has done a great job keeping out foreigners without papers according to the news media. So what is behind all of these deaths? Hungary, with a population slightly larger than Israel, has reported almost 5x the number of deaths.
I tried to add a more up to date stats link but it was rejected by this website. Here an older link from April 2021:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-04-20/hungary-with-highest-covid-death-rate-says-virus-has-peaked
LOL.
LOL indeed.
These clowns never stop.
Gee I hope Tucker didn’t catch the crud while over there…but then, he’s been vaccinated, so no worries.
Hungary has a population fatality rate of 0.47%
Less than a percent, just like everywhere else.
That’s a meaningless statistic until the whole population has had the disease.
Then all of the fear porn you parrot is also meaningless.
One doesn’t even have to try to defeat the logic of idiots like you.
No.
That is how many people have died from so-called Covid19.
After a year and a half. Viruses move through populations in 70 days, so explain why it’s allegedly still here, and why it comes and goes with the flu season.
The Cognitive Dissonance becomes a deafening roar. But because the listeners are deaf (not to mention daft) most cannot hear it:
“A review of imported cases going back to the start of last month finds an increasing proportion involved fully vaccinated arrivals…”

(are willing)
Terrific, and funny.
Wow, lotsa totalitarians running around.
quoted above post:
” Look to history – why were all human pre 1700 societies top down with specific castes, jobs and duties?
Because natural selection developed these system as the most effective in terms of scarce resource allocation, including cultivation, extraction and availability *combined* with collective defensive protection. Iow, continuation of the groups and species.
It was only thru the incredible discovery of energy surplus that allowed for the mfg of firearms that in turn provided individuals the ability to wield equal force vs established govt armies.
It also trivialized resource production, with amazingly easy ways to cultivate, process and store food stuffs. The end result is of course the infamous hockey stick graph of human population growth.
But it was all just a temp aberation – we never set anything aside for future scarcity. Or did we? Did certain ptb come to realize the dumb animals would never get it, so they simply went ahead with their plans?
Thats what i see – you dont have to project, but merely recognize what they are plainly saying. And if you give yourself some time to think, what would you do?
Thats the acceptance stage. You can see how the whole thing is playing out, the motivation behind the tactics, and the longer term strategy of how future societies are to be ordered. ”
response:
the “hockey stick” graph of population growth is actually a bent hockey stick. Hydrocarbon use started the second uptick 150 ears ago. The first uptick, equally distinct, began 10-12k years ago with the adoption of intensive agricultural practices as a basis for civilizations.
I submit that the true “mean” of societal structures in terms of population-growth rates is pre-agricultural.
To “go back” to a more balanced and ordained mode of human life is not to return to the age of fuedalism and empires… it is to return in some primary respect to the age of tribal hunter-gatherers.
@mitchellc, you’re not going back far enough in history to reverse the perversions of modernity.. imo
The Beantown Shill:
The rest of my frustration is directed to the assholes who call me names, like Night Owl and O.J. Squawkins, who IMO are bad people.
Just read that sentence. Holy shit!
“The assholes who call me names”
That’s funny, Shill.
In a post above at 6: 28 pm yesterday, Squawkins needled vaxxers by stating that they’ll all die soon. He started off the post by addressing the vaxxers as “Good day youse putrid toxic-dump scumbags.” The rest of the comment was just as evil, yet people call ME names. Where are all you good people who don’t call him on this shit?
It appears that it is you yourself are not reading and taking posts seriously, there Shill.
Regular readers of CFN know that I publish The Daily Glom for the 22 scumbags who 1-by-1 chose Wrong over Right while stealing over $750,000 and 6 years from me.
I refer to their meat-puppet shutdowns as Just because they are. Those scumbags Truly deserve what is happening to their innards 24×7. Honest to God they do.
Now, Shill, either pay attention or shut the fuck up.
On top of all this, he claims to follow God. Yet he’s going against much of Jesus’ (the son of God) tenets, like turn the other cheek. He says he’s done some bad things in his life and is afraid he could be going to Hell. As if that’s a good excuse to act despicably. Well, he’s right about one thing – he’s on the fast track to Hell.
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Jesus Christ of Nazareth
Matthew 5:6
Worry about your own soul, Shill. I know that God knows what I have unJustly endured at the hands of The Cabal.
I seek Truth, Justice & Righteousness. You think that all Christians must not look forward to Big Brother Jesus coming to kick some butt and make things Right.
Our Almighty Father is a loving God if you so deserve it (i.e. seek Truth & Justice) but also a Wrathful God if you do not (i.e. facilitate Bush / Cheney killing over 3,000 Americans to Justify running the Global Heroin industry for another 2 decades).
You have no idea where God and I stand, Shill. You are a total dumb-ass. TruStory
Historically on this blog, I’ve been very polite for the most part, but no more. I’m gonna fight fire with fire. Sorry to rant to you. You seem to be ok.
Let ‘er rip, dipshit.
Ok, lets consider another possible outcome: that the masses succesfully rebel and overturn not only mandates but entire governments as well.
In a fit of pique, they attack the citadel and break into the larder, engorging themsleves on the remaining food and drink in one last blow out high.
But the next morning comes, as the motley crew lazily awakens to revel in their new found freedoms. But the urge to take a shit soon takes hold, then a slight sensation of thirst and hunger.
The first few days might be uncomfortable, but plans are made for future order & relief. But, no one seems to be aware of some others making their own plans, ones based on violence and plunder.
After all, why toil in the hot sun for weeks/months on end, when by the chance of outrageous fortune one can capture all the pussy, food and drink they desire in one throw of the dice?
Get it? The same old, same old tale of resource scarcity and conflict told repeatedly over millenia. Only this time around the competing tribes and warlords have nukes.
In his books, Jim painted the idea of a nice, rationale future of an ordered society abiding by legal principles, respect for the individual and communal responsibilities.That is, the 70s “yes we can” religion promoted by ‘soft hippies’.
Now it appears to be dawning on some that that kind of society takes *too much* energy. It is so much easier to simply apply order thru force, which is why every pre 1700 society operated in this fashion.
And when these structured systems fail, as they have every millenium or so, the individual is free at last, only to be quickly confronted with the need to fight to preserve their property, wives, children from organized marauding gangs who will happily rape, enslave and kill in a wonton path of destruction.
This is the history of our species. There are only the 2 options; no 3rd path exists.
somebody is stuck in the middle-ages. a world of warcraft player maybe?
So, accept the boot on your neck or it’s marauding gangs for you. No other options, no other possibilities, just this one, stark, overwrought binary choice?
And why would denouncing mandates dissolve governments? Mandates are not the government, just as the entities pushing mandates are not the government, though they would certainly like to profess they are. The people, and no other, are the government. Why would we overturn ourselves but to reinstitute proper governance sans marauding gangs?
Can you provide the forum with an example of an egalatarian society before 1700?
(I use 1700 because thats when the coal island known as GB began industrializing. Like heroin to morphine, petroleum spiked the punch by orders of magnitude circa 1860+-)
Since the USA was formed during this period, its founding principles were based entirely on advantages conceived in luxury and born of ridiculous plenty.
Imagine an empty continent populated with only 3m people, but blessed (?) with unbelievable vast stores of energy. And yet we still needed slaves until steam (coal) and petrol engines could substitute for brute manpower.
Now the surplus is gone. In fact its been gone for decades, causing us to range far and wide (aka engage in global wars to bring “peace and democracy”) as we scrape the bottom of our own depleted reserves.
Jim and others have been over these core facts many times. The present debate centers on whether there is a 3rd way. You seem to reject the binary outcomes ive presented that have never varied in 10k years.
I think jim is hoping that our current situation is one were intelligent, rationale thinkers have yet to be heard. That the CF at hand is the result of myopic dunces concentrating with 1 day time frames, that perhaps theres still time to organize in a manner characteristic of a balanced 3rd way.
I say thats a lot of wishful thinking. I say the events we see taking place are based on calculated decisions driven by the fear of nuclear confrontation, where every last person goes down.
But cant the ptb be honest and lay out the cards for everyone to see the truth? Lol – look what happened to erhlic and carter. Poor jimmy was no match for someone who promised a return to the good old days of plenty.
Why then would being forthright work this time around? Thats why if you sit back and look at the chessboard, it all makes perfect sense. Or, even easier read fully public statements, policy proposals and other disclosures that clearly state goals and objectives.
The last I heard, the US has 400 years of coal in the ground, just sitting there and enough clean air technology to burn it cleanly, if desired. So much for 1700.
Further, the total solar energy that hits the earth each and every year is enough to provide 20,000 times the power used by the entire human race. Using 2013 technology, less than one quarter of the land mass of Arizona would power the entire country at its current consumption of four petawatts per year. There are multiple ways, and ways yet to be implemented, to capture if not actually replicate this solar energy.
Painting no-way-out, apocalyptic scenarios sells books, movie tickets, and Totalitarian wet dreams no doubt, but there are more ways to skin a cat than there are cats (and there are plenty of cats).
I’m a proponent of solar power satellites with the energy converted to microwaves beamed down to Earth and captured by rectennas. Unfortunately, I haven’t thought about how to prevent the damage to birds and possibly the atmosphere. I’m sure someone will figure it out.
Bill,
Too bad Ted Stevens isn’t with us anymore, he could’ve set up a “series of tubes” that might solve your bird/atmosphere/microwave problem.
“Can you provide the forum with an example of an egalatarian society before 1700?”
Athens, 6th Century BC?
Maybe I should have had you define “egalitarian” first…
Regardless, if Athens doesn’t fit, I’m hard pressed to think of anyone after AD 1700 that does.
The Amish are pretty darn close, and they’ve been steadily growing too for a couple centuries. Not fast growth, but growth nonetheless.
Hmm…Odds on their population growing by a few million in the next year or two as vaccine mandates go into effect??
Worth a try, no?
I can make my own clothes and grow a chin beard in a short period of time. The horse part, butter-churning part and barn-raising skills might be more of a challenge to acquire quickly.
But hey, if Woody Harrelson could do it…
The Amish would probably survive an economic and cultural collapse (they don’t need our stinkin’ “culture”), if it weren’t for their fellow citizens who will consider them easy pickin’s.
“The meek shall inherit the Earth.” Yeah, six feet of it.
I guess we Amish-respecters will have to set up defensive perimeters around their communities, since I doubt they will.
But don’t let your Amish friends lure you into their one suspender/two suspender feud.
“This is the history of our species.”
When I read that I immediately flashed on “las republiquitas” of Central America. Guatemala in particular seems to be playing out your projected scenario, which is one main reason why desperate people are crowding our borders.

Update:
Peter was ensconced in a rehab facility yesterday afternoon. He has not called yet demanding release. We expect that call in 24 hrs or less.
He is supposed to stay there for 4 weeks.
Tell him to play Yahtzee.
OK, Peter has called and my wife has texted our extended family as follows (I have to laugh, it is all so predictable):
Just got a call from UP (Uncle Pete). He hates everything! No one gave him any therapy today and he said his insurance will only let him stay a week! Said it was the worse place he ever was! The food is terrible and could I bring him an apple and a coke! It’s just as I predicted!
YAHTZEE!
You ought to boot him out if he refuses to complete rehab. Tough love.
He’s going to hang on for years. Years! Each moment is an priceless, an eternity of ice cream sundaes for dinner in the morning.

700,000 phosphorus bombs were unloaded on Dresden. That’s one bomb for every two people. The city itself reached 2,912 degrees Fahrenheit. For comparison, rocks melt at 1,600 degrees. It was hotter than a volcano in Dresden. Survivors recounted seeing young women running up and down the streets while carrying babies, their dresses and hair on fire, screaming until they eventually fell down, or the buildings fell on top of them. Kurt Vonnegut Jr. was a witness to the aftermath.
The author of Slaughterhouse-Five had been taken prisoner on December 22, and only survived, according to his own account, by taking refuge in a meat locker three stories underground. Vonnegut later recalled: “It was cool there, with cadavers hanging all around. When we came up the city was gone. They burnt the whole damn town down.” Vonnegut and other American prisoners were put to work immediately after the bombing, excavating bodies from the rubble. He described the activity as a “terribly elaborate Easter-egg hunt.”
Elsewhere, the author commented: “You guys burnt the place down, turned it into a single column of flame. More people died there in the firestorm, in that one big flame, than died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.”
Initial reports in Japan, and by the Associated Press, were that Hiroshima was firebombed.
Mm-hmm, firebombed. Are you surprised? I’m not.
The most common photo of Hiroshima, and I’m talking about the document where we actually receive a layout of the land (not some mushroom mock-up in the clouds), is actually that of a raging firestorm. Also, the horizon is flat. It’s painful—how easily we’re duped.

Who are you quoting? I never called the 22 scumbags in The Cabal my “oppressors,” so who are you quoting?
They stole over $750,000 from me. They Legally owe “evidence” that does not exist. I have filed criminal chatges against 6 individuals. These criminal charges are being investigated Right now by the Regina Police Service.
You are Wrong, RL. They take their proven crimes committed against me and my Truth-spewing Legal strategy VERY seriously. TruStory

So what are you saying? If my head’s wiring is messed up from, among other things, their extortion of me, I’m not supposed to recoup the stolen $750,000? I should be a polite crime victim lest I be called crazy from some yahoo in the States?
Ya. Right.
Fuck you, RL. Fuck you very much.
If the above rant is the standard example of how you communicate your argument to your “oppressors”, then you shouldn’t be surprised that you are roundly IGNORED.
If you were serious in getting redress for the perceived crimes of your ex (lucky her – she got out, with some loot!), you’d give up the name-calling lunatic rants, buddy. I
f you don’t trust the legal system (which clearly you don’t), then you’ll just have to be content with impotent rantings, such as you’ve been posting here recently. Yep – you just stay angry and enraged, but look out for cancer catching you up.
I tend to think of money is an arbitrary fabrication simply put in place to control who gets what. Property may be less so but then if you think about it all governments and societies act as if it is arbitrary too in the end. You are here. There is a lifecycle for everything. The current paradigm is perishing from a parasitic infection that appears incurable. And this late manifestation of “civilization” is anti life. It is reflecting what it is built upon.
Anti-life.
In two, short, sharp words, that’s exactly it. What are modern western societies about? They’re about the opposite of procreation and not only that of the individual. They’re “anti” the propagation of society and of the entirety of the civilization.
It’s as if a consensus developed among mostly the professional and professorial and governing classes, that none of it deserves to survive, that the whole thing needs to be ripped out by the roots. And that not only is it untoward for men and women to form legal bonds to raise kids, it’s beneath the dignity of women to bear them and certainly beneath that of anyone bearing a white skin and especially a northern European heritage to actually devote their lives to raising them.
No, career is much more important, so is progressive ideological purity, so is the high regard of one’s peers in the office and the faculty lounge. Having a family is for the lesser human breeds, those being non-white and non-western, people to be condescended to, you know, the so-called “multi-cultural” community, people that don’t speak good English, that have these odd religious beliefs and rituals, people deemed to not have the intellectual capacity to know better.
You’d be forgiven for thinking that this is the logical consequence of so much dysphoria, like dysphoria of the gender variety, of the sexual preference variety, and disorientation as to age-old sex roles and societal structures and so many other matters. A kid that claims they’re “trans” is seen in certain quarters as a triumph, something to make their parents weep with joy, something to bring to work and brag about, to discuss every day as the transition by means of drugs and surgery proceeds. And a family of heterosexual parents with heterosexual kids an embarrassment, retrograde/ anachronistic.
So tell me, which family will pass on their genes?
The wealthy may have stable families. But they are a minority and they can’t survive without a viable supporting economic structure of people also able to work and support families, which year-by-year is eroding. It ain’t rocket science, you can see yourself the disheveled state of society both economically and behaviorally.
Working 80 hours a week and loving it? Well, not only will you love it all the way to the grave, but you and your kind never having had time to marry and have kids are destined to be an evolutionary dead-end.
Other people that do procreate (those being the type currently looked down on like the ones with head scarves just as one example) will not only do so biologically but culturally and societally.
Western civilization will be succeeded by something else and we can already see who the successors are likely to be. They’re among us and also outside the borders, people that are unashamed of who they are and of what they’re doing.
Cancel culture is all the rage. People live in dread of being “cancelled”. Do the cancellers exult in their power? They’re temporary, natural selection having the last word, cancelling the cancellers and much more besides.
Bye bye.
I saw a video with an East Asian kid saying that he never got any hits on his dating profile – except a Merry Christmas from the site itself. After a couple of years of this, he decided to become a woman. Does that make any sense? Is a Tranny just a failed man? And does that equal woman somehow?
Well yes certainly all of that. But also anti-life in that the wealthy, the oligarchs or just them who essentially control everyone else have no interest in quality of life or standard of living or any of those things that at one time were considered basically inherent features of modern civilization for anyone outside of their sphere. So that is why there for instance isn’t even a border, and that is why there are crumbling roads, and bridges, and grids. And that is why so much hardship is here and so much more for the future. The teeming masses at the border are intended to replace the native middle and lower classes as the next servile host. But it will be interesting to see if that is actually the outcome. I seriously doubt it. But then I also doubted in the beginning how far for instance the covid tyranny would go so there’s that
Hey Shill. Are you saying that Jews cannot be criticized?
If so, why the fuck not?
What if a small group of them ran everything with evil intent toward the goyim? What would be our recourse?
You see, Right? Everybody gets to criticize everybody lest it fail.
“Hey Shill. Are you saying that Jews cannot be criticized?”
OG,
Try it and see what happens.
Yeah…fuck me.
Why can’t Jews be criticized?
Because if one thread is pulled, where will it end? It would never end because they are a huge percentage of the higher Elite. You can criticize them only as individual Whites. In other words, when it’s just more anti-White bashing. Race is fine – as long as it’s White. Class much less so, And identifying the actual components of the Elite – that is verboten for obvious reasons.

I used the ‘J’ term here and was threatened with expulsion, recently. I assume JHK saw it as criticism.
You’ve been around here long enough to know better.
So … Jews run Hollywood. Everyone knows that Jews run Hollywood. You can do a stand-up routine goofing on the fact that Jews run Hollywood. That is that.
But complain that Jews run Hollywood and you are a nutzoid tinfoil anti-Semite.
You’ve been around here long enough to know better.
It was not meant as criticism.
and who is Hal turner?
Why would they not be exempt from criticism? Don’t they have wives?

Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, you are correct. You thought is extremely lacking.
Your thought is extremely lacking. Alchemy? WTF? When you turn Hydrogen into Gold give me a call from inside your supernova.
Yep, RT, you are right about gold. Do you know that because of gold’s density most of the Earth’s gold sunk down into our planet’s core? All the gold ever mined had been relatively near the surface, and is but a small fraction of the Earth’s supply. All the mined gold up to now would fit into a 70’ cube. Also, it’s been estimated that the sun contains 3 trillion tons of gold.
I thank you for your keen insight.

Well, ladies and germs;
Newsmax (a site you can trust) is reporting that we…neglected to remove those Afghanistan nationals that aided the US forces as interpreters, guides, etc. It is further suggested that we are a full two months late in addressing the humanitarian issues that will result involving the friends (and their families) of the US being tortured and killed by the Taliban.
https://www.newsmax.com/newsmax-tv/bacon-biden-afghanistan-interpreters/2021/08/07/id/1031486/
I would like to say to those who aided our cause in that God forsaken country…sorry. It was an unfortunate oversite…it fell through the cracks…we were distracted…not our fault…you should have said something….
And I agree with OG that it was a false flag event much like REMEMBER THE MAINE! The capstan lies in Battery Park…
https://i2.wp.com/undiscoveredcharleston.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/mainecapstansc.jpg?resize=241%2C250&ssl=1
But I have to admit that I was wrong Ely. You are not always correct, My apologies.
Don’t worry, Taliban is already negotiating with China to bring in PLA and construction engineers once they take over completely, which should happen shortly, by the end of 2021. China and Afghanistan share a border so logistically there shouldn’t be too many problems. Capital improvements, infrastructure, dams and most of all massive coal fired power plants to provide electricity to the Afghan people, are on the agenda.
And John Kerry — The Climate Czar — said coal is dead. Long live coal!
Brh
Coal price is up 99.9% year to date. China and India eat that shit for breakfast. We will all pay. My bill is up to $.15 per KWH. Coal is cool. Coal and oil are king. USA moves to outlaw coal and oil. We have coal up the ass in this country. Our coal is money in the bank. People are so predictable. When the lights are dimmed believe me the wokesters will get on board and demand juice for their bullshit network social media crap. Burn Baby Burn!
And the chart.
https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/coal
Well, elites will need juice to keep their $90,000 EVs powered up. Wind turbines and solar panels won’t cut it.
That’s horrible and inhumane. But then again why were we ever really in such a far off stone age place other than again made up narratives
The Hill:
The number of sick children in Louisiana and Florida has drastically increased within the past couple of weeks.
It is unclear why more children are sick due to the delta variant outbreak, but medical experts believe the surges are because of how easy it is for the virus to circulate in an unvaccinated population.
From the beginning of the pandemic, children made up 14.3 percent of all cases. Now, children with COVID-19 represent 19 percent in weekly reported cases from July 15 to July 29.
Anglin:
This is clearly bullshit.
I would have a hard time even dignifying it with a reply.
But here, I’ll try: do you know anyone who has kids that has been hospitalized for coronavirus?
I can pretty well guarantee that none of the few hundred thousand people that will read these words will have heard of any single child being hospitalized under the pretext of coronavirus.
The media is just making it up.
This is also something I warned you of: the censorship has created a situation where the government/media machine can just print whatever, and no one has any way of knowing any different.
Most journalists believe in the hoax
If a journalist did go to one of these pediatric hospitals and try to get in to investigate, they wouldn’t be allowed in
If they somehow managed to get in, found that the whole thing was a hoax, and tried to print it, whoever they work for would refuse to print it
If whoever they worked for agreed to print it, it would be completely censored as “disinformation”
There are no guardrails left to prevent these people from just making things up, outright.
I suspect that drumming up this “children sick with Covid” hoax will be the first major operation of just completely falsifying an entire phenomenon that is supposedly happening right down the street from you.
We are of course used to the media spinning things, selectively choosing what to report, manufacturing fake quotes, drumming up hysteria, manipulating polls and other statistics, and so on. Still, we do not expect the media to simply make something up outright – especially if that something is supposedly happening in America.
We tend to assume that they wouldn’t do it because it would be impossible. The truth would have to get out.
But what is that process now?
Seriously: explain the process through which the truth would get out if the media had just totally invented a fake story about children getting sick with the deadly coronavirus?
There is no such process.
If it did get out, it would just be immediately censored by everyone. Basically, anyone who would report it is already censored. What’s more, it would only be a single source, and you wouldn’t be able to confirm it. Meanwhile, the entire media would be moving in lockstep to confirm it as absolute truth.
You’ve already seen them openly fake the numbers of coronavirus cases and deaths. They’re just upping the ante, and creating a new invisible fake crisis.
This is going to be everything now. It’s just all going to be completely fake.
I’m still figuring out how exactly I’m going to operate as a journalist who tends to rely on some truth being communicated by the mainstream media.
Yoho: Why not start a story about people being chased down and abducted by giant ants the size of terriers? An ant that size could easily outrun and drag off a person. Try and disprove it’s happening. You can’t. There are missing people, right? So there.
They don’t have to prove it, you have to disprove it. Why? Because they have the networks and the guns to protect the networks. The TV and Radio Stations and the guns. The internet and the guns to protect the internet. What do you have? The Truth? Skepticism? Your ability to reason?
Blow it out your ear. If you’re so smart, why aren’t you rich? Why don’t you have the networks, etc? You got guns? As many as they do? Ok, then.
Terriers? Bad news. I had a purebred Yorky. Papers and all. He was supposed to be 7-8 lbs. He was more like 16 lbs. Way bigger boned than he was supposed to be. He would go up against my daughters 50 lb. coon hound and kick ass. They never got along. The dog was fearless. I mean kick-ass fight to the death,balls-to-the-wall fangs,blood,coon-ass kickin’ whoopass in a small package. He was a no holds barred Iron Mike Tyson in a furry package. I miss that sum-bitch.
Thank you for your second comment. I thought you were just going to do a BRH and take my example and run with it, ignoring the Principle. He’s like an enemy caddy, grabbing the golf ball and throwing it into the weeds and water.
It’s hard to say. If it was going to happen, why hasn’t it started already?
Terriers are fun, though very had to train. Mine was always trying to start trouble with much bigger dogs.
Our Jack Russel not long ago challenged a Black Bear, and the bear ended up backing down. Then the dog trotted back to where we were, acting like it was nothing at all.
I think animals don’t have much size perspective. Does a bear know it is bigger than the dog? Does the little dog even know that he is little? It’s all about the size of the spirit.
you dont know dogs. I do. a dog that is small looks up to see the eyes of whats taller and should know its out sized.
Sorry Malth that is crap.Dogs don’t give a shit. No size class. Little dogs kick ass. They will take on a much larger dog just because. Just like some little dudes will take on a big guy. Those weight lifters in Tokyo wre pickin’ up 3 times their body weight. Good luck wid’ at.
They are relying on the rest of their pack – that isn’t there. They are much like us now with our assumptions…..
They aren’t a real species and would die out very quickly. They do form packs to bring down game – including people. But they don’t form pair bonds and the males won’t help the females raise the pups.
Some say that after the collapse, they will become dangerous before dying out. Some will breed with coyotes or wolves and the offspring may or may not be viable – as in having the wolf or coyote instincts.
a friends JR bit a child. hunting dogs. do not pull their tails or else.
I was following along, this struck me:
“Most journalists believe in the hoax”
Just for clarity, are you saying they think the story is the truth, or are they perpetuating the lie with intent?
Maybe I missed it entirely.
And terriers, I’ve owned some. Though training is at times a challenge, I haven’t wanted to own any other type dog except terriers.
Anybody familiar with the Basenji? Very ancient breed and the smartest, cleverest, most entertaining dogs ever. Hypoallergenic short-haired dogs that sometimes behave more like cats than dogs. Difficult to train, as they have a mind of their own, but that’s a big part of their charm.
Yes I have known many Basenji’s. They don’t bark, and I love their little howl for greeting people they like. Really cool little dogs.
I have Jack-Chi’s. Brother and sister (rescues).
The boy is more like a chihuahua and the girl a jack russell. Boy can she jump! And she’s a handful. Talk about attitude.
They are hilarious. I always had big dogs before these guys. They are really smart and entertaining. But they are not easy!
Wilbur and his two sister siblings are rescues…….
Aussies and as head strong as many others………
Wilbur is a lil bastard and has no fear, even biting me while playing rough, bop him and he just backs up and looks at me.

Yeah most journalists aren’t. They just accept the talking points from their editors, the editors from the owners, and so on up the Pyramid (look at the back of a dollar bill).
The more canny might know and of course go along with it. Why by God? So as to RISE. No one gets to the plateau or Capstone who is a simple dupe.
Vlad:
Why? Because they have the networks and the guns to protect the networks. The TV and Radio Stations and the guns. The internet and the guns to protect the internet. What do you have? The Truth? Skepticism? Your ability to reason?
Um. Guns? They have the guns but we have the numbers.. Not really. There are an estimated 500,000,000 guns in the country. Every month another few mil. Uh oh. Nobody knows the number. Anybody that says they know the number is crazy. How many blades of grass?

Why not start a story about people being chased down and abducted by giant ants – Yo
===========
Speaking of ants (large but not giant) one of the few things I have read more than once (3 times) is a short story titled Leiningen Versus the Ants.
Q, I think it was Leininger and the Ants. I read that short story, too,and it was excellent. It was later made into a movie starring Charleton Heston.
Q, I stand corrected. Your title was correct.
I read this story as a kid.

I was a self taught junior biologist. . I had snakes, turtles (in half-wine barrels), mantids, guinea pigs, all sorts of shit. Drove my Mom crazy when I would bring home big snakes. (racers). Chemist and homemade fireworks also. Back then collecting was easy. Woods and fields everywhere. My old stomping grounds and swamps are history. Drained and overbuilt. I should have been in the living room staring at the screen.
Yeah. Basically their narrative is in power so might makes right and everybody else is gonna have to shut up. But it is definitely bs. And also one thing to keep in mind is that the media and the regime want to generate alot of fear and propaganda about unvaxxed people spreading covid. So they will be highlighting states and areas with large unvaxxed populations to mock, scorn and scapegoat. And its also just applying more political coercion and oppression to those areas to clamp down on the unvaxxed.
They are just making things up now. And being paid handsomely for it. It was obvious to me since the vaccine injuries and deaths started. They had to hide that, so they just made up the term ‘variant’ to explain it away. Mission accomplished.
WHO is “just making things up now.”? HOW much are they “being paid handsomely”? WHO is paying “them”? WHY are “they “ paying the other “they”? If anyone can be accused of making shit up, MaryQuackery, it is thee.
Great article.
This is what we are facing.
The mainstream media is a mouthpiece for the deep state, and there is no questioning them lest you be labeled a loon, tinfoil hat, etc.
People like RL are happy about this, for some reason.
Then there are those of us who take what the squawking heads say, and investigates it, and finds out 99% of the time, they are lying, and their lie is based upon nothing but whatever instructions they have been given by their masters.
Anyone who thinks these psychos work in our best interests at this point is irretrievably delusional.

There are ninety and nine that live and die in want and hunger and cold

The ninety and nine in their hovels bare, the one in the palace
With riches rare.
They toil in the fields, the ninety and nine for the fruits of your mother earth
They dig and delve in the dusty mine and bring the treasures forth
And the wealth released by the sturdy blows
To the hands of the one forever flows
From the sweat of their brows the desert blooms and the forest before them falls
Their labor has built them humble homes and the city with lofty halls
And the one owns cities, houses and lands
And the ninety and nine have empty hands.

Phew! Glitterati from all over the world flying into Martha’s Vineyard on private Gulfstream IVs for Obama’s Birthday Bash; Meanwhile, in Obama’s Hometown, Chicago, at least 50 people already shot so far this weekend, including 2 police officers, one of whom is dead, one critical.
Apparently Obama’s $15 million mansion was built on water’s edge, so apparently nobody is worried too much about ‘Sea level rise’. Many of the Honored Guests arrived on massive motor yachts the size of WW2 Navy Destroyers. Those things are powered up by diesel fueled turbines that really suck up the juice. I don’t know if the Climate Czar — John Kerry — sailed over from Nantucket in his impressive yacht. Eventually the guest list will be released.
Brh
Yes! John Kerry — The Climate Czar — was in attendance. He was seen schmoozing with Bruce Springsteen, another rich celebrity suck××s.
Wait, are you telling me these people are not environmentalists?
dont you know, just smiling at obama causes CO2 molecules to shatter spontaneously
Was Bruce doing tequila shooters on his hog? You or I would lose our license. The Boss skates with a fine.
Springsteen’s daughter has been competing in equestrian events at the Olympics. My brain started mulling around how much it must have cost to raise an Olympics level equestrian. It got to 7 digit numbers, and I gave up with a couple conclusions: the expense of transporting the horse to Tokyo and back was a mere drop in the over all cost bucket; and her daddy’s working class hero routine paid off really, really well.
Kerry has a place on the Vineyard.
I wonder whether they staged the transportation at Otis AFB.
Horseface flew in on an F-15 with a nuke payload. He can’t take any chances with all the white supremacists armed with stingers lurking on the Cape.

This was our Secretary of State, our face to the world.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmIRYvJQeHM
Kerry has a place on the Vineyard AND Nantucket I believe. Or he keeps his yacht and Gulfstream on the Vineyard, but his mansion is on Nantucket. It’s not clear, which perhaps is deliberate.
Kerry privately owns a Gulfstream IV, but he also — as The Climate Czar — has access to a govt 747 so he can fly around the world cutting deals to sell us out and undermine the country.
Brh
I very much doubt that Obama scaled back anything, although he issued a sycophantic (towards the local Karens) announcement that the party would be reduced to 40 guests a few days before and strategically leaked an email disinviting some (whom?) .
Ha ha ha ha.

Federal income taxes are often two or three times higher than state taxes. Seems upside down to me. If we had some kind of law or system whereby tax rates were higher locally than state, and state higher than federal, I think we would be so much better off. I wonder.
Interesting point. We give the feds far too much money!
Basically they just hand it over to federal bureaucrats and MFIC.
Yes, fed tax is definitely higher than state.
I guess the main state-level taxes actually turn out to be local property taxes.
What if the states decided to keep the money?
Essentially defund most of the federal government?
It’s a step short of secession.

Did NOT Kill Osama bin Laden
Paul Craig Roberts
August 7, 2021
The American People Live In a World of False Narratives
A decade ago today, I posted the translation reproduced below of a TV news report in Pakistan about the alleged killing of Osama bin Laden by a strike team of Navy SEALS sent in by Obama. I had previously posted a video of the news report which had subscripts explaining in English what was being said, but not myself familiar with the language as a check on the veracity of the subscripts I had the news report translated by a qualified person. What is reproduced below is my column of August 7, 2011.
But first permit me to briefly recap the story. The Obama regime made a dramatic announcement that a Navy SEAL team had just killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. The dramatic announcement was accompanied by the claim that Obama and top officials of his regime had watched the operation live. This news report was complete with a photo of Obama and his team intently watching a TV screen while Obama was being terminated.
The claim that the WH watched the raid and death of bin Laden was quickly abandoned as obviously the visual evidence would have been recorded, and everyone would be asking to see the non-existent visual evidence.

Thinking about delta’s traits.
Why does it seem to have little or no effects on vaccinated folks?
Maybe,
It has a faster reproduction rate or a higher reproduction rate.
Different, faster meaning it turns it cycle around faster in a body cell
Higher means it produces more viruses per cycle.
Or maybe, it’s number of required invectives is lower.
Either way, the number of viruses increases at a much faster rate than alpha.
Now, consider the speed of response of the immune system, how long it takes to respond to an incursion into the nasopharyngeal zone.
IMHO, the combination of both says that the delta initially outpaces the immune response which allows it to set up shop in the nose, say, to a point where you can even spread it around. Then the immune response catches up and wipes it out before it becomes systemic. Immunization or prior alpha would have the same scenario.
Kids haven’t had the jab like adults, but their immune system is much faster in response, so they nip it in the bud. Lots of early cases, little transmission, little lasting effects.
Having antibodies active speeds up response. Antibodies are torn down with time, leaving the memory cells to fight off the next exposure. IOW, the longer the time since vaxx or exposure, the longer the response time. Oh yeah, memory cell response is slower than antibody response. B cell memory response is what generates antibodies in the subsequent exposures.
It really pisses me off to see the Democratic government’s response to delta. Delta is not near as dangerous as alpha because of the nearness of herd immunity. You listen to Biden right now, you would think we were at the levels of last year. His reaction to Florida and Texas is insane, probably demented. It amazes me how arrogant they are.
You unvaxxed folks realize that you have a greater risk of all body reaction to the virus, and accept that versus the hazards of the vaxx itself. I believe than many folks who have not been vaxxed have had asymptomatic or minor Covid and are naturally immune now. If someone had checked titers of unvaxxed folks, we would have a measure of how many low impact cases of Covid might have happened. But oh no, the CDC does not care about data, just politics.
Sucks!
As OG and MQ frequently say,
At this point, it should be treated as the flu or a cold.
Get sick, stay home.
Do not want to get sick, mask in close quarters, distance, wash your hands a lot. Avoid indoor large groups.
Vaxx if you are so inclined. BTW, each day that goes by and the Vaxxed folks are not dying off, the more the alarmists are losing the impact of their predictions. The rate of Vaxx in high rate delta areas is skyrocketing. More deaths in three years right? Or is it five years now?
Eventually, they will hit a number of years until death that is correct, because the older folks that got the jabs first will die off naturally.

JohnAZ – The rate of Vaxx in high rate delta areas is skyrocketing. More deaths in three years right? Or is it five years now?
You’re right, we know essentially nothing about what will happen from the vaccine, or when.
Same as you.
The difference is that you’re choosing to trust those who have repeatedly been caught lying to us throughout the whole thing (while profiting handsomely).
We are choosing not to trust them.
Just remember, we were all told it was our choice. And very soon it will not be…unless we want to live hiding under the covers in our bedrooms, ordering in groceries via notes dropped out the window (after our home Internet has been cut off) for the rest of our lives.
You do seem pretty reasonable lately about some of the BS being rolled out by those pulling the media levers.
But where will you be when real friends of yours are cut off from society? Will you support the talking heads? Or will you realize that you don’t want to be the type of person that is now okay with the arbitrary ostracization of perfectly good people?
First they came for the trade unionists…
(And yes, I know that I slightly misquoted Niemoller there…but since socialists are all the rage these days, I figured it needed an update.)
The most amusing part is, he doesn’t trust those same McMedia sources on other issues.
Just for “Covid.” They would never lie about “Covid.”
You can’t help these people, Mr. Mango. What will happen is that they will continue to do mental gymnastics to fit reality into their world view.
In terms of predictions that the more intelligent have made, just think, here in Europe, we now have vaxx passes being unrolled to go into a store, ride a train, etc.
You can’t fix stupid.
JAZ where did this Delta strain come from, how is it different from the Covid of last year, and will there be more variants in the future?
Literature says,
India, s protein spike is modified in each variant, each time the virus interacts with a body cell and manufactured new viruses errors can occur. Successful errors are variants. Anything that allows the spike to hook up easier.
Covid19 has never been isolated.
https://www.globalresearch.ca/foi-reveal-health-science-institutions-around-world-have-no-record-sars-cov-2-isolation-purification-anywhere-ever/5751969
Read this.
Further on it says there has been no isolation of HIV, Ebola, Zika or any cold coronaviruses viruses.
By your logic, never been isolated, none of these viruses exist.
Which means that millions of people have died from nothing.
Bull!
There is no such thing as a ‘variant’.
There is no such thing as Covid19.
COvid19 is a ruse. Covid19 is death, rebranded.
You have been hoaxed.
By your own article so is
The common cold
Zika
HIV
Ebola
The whole world and millions of deaths are hoaxes.
Uh huh.
Do people who have raised children generally have better-developed immune systems due to their children being exposed to countless forms of virus, bacteria, and other pathogens at pre-school, daycare, etc. and then bringing them all home to share?
I think it is mainly colds that children bring home from school.
And there are occasional outbreaks of head lice!
It stands to reason that this constant workout would help build robust immune systems in both children and adults.
Unfortunately hypochondria is now the major health feature of western society, it looks like.
So everyone is destined to be weaker and dumber as we “go forward”!
Yes
And flus. Not just school.
Adults bring it home from work, people spread stuff anywhere close activity happens.
Some viruses that are able to live on surfaces spread through contact.
Polio spread through swimming pools. HIV needed blood or body fluid contact,
Hepatitis A is spread by contact. B,C and D need body fluid contact.
Any way they can “figure” out a way to get into our cells.
Not_GeorgeT –
Good question.
I do know that I rarely got noticeably sick in my adult life, and then my boy started going to preschool a few years ago. About two weeks in, I got the first stomach flu I’d had in over twenty years. Wife got sick too. Sporadic mild cold or three in our household over the next few months. Then we were all fine.
Then the lockdown hit and he was home with us for six weeks. We were fine. When he went back to preschool after they relaxed the rules, we all got a cold the first weekend and he got a stomach bug. Since then we’ve been fine, nothing out of the ordinary.
Seems to me we all need exposure to the germs out there…when we do, it hits us, but then we’re good. The medical establishment always trumpeted that idea as truth throughout my lifetime, until March of last year.
Anyway, I would say that our immune systems are definitely stronger for having a kid bringing home all the fresh viral and bacterial goodies from being around other kids at school.

Almost completely blacked out, with videos disappearing from twitter.
Cops aren’t on our side. Everybody clear about that? Think of all the MAGAS who are going to get gassed or knocked on their ass when it starts here. They won’t learn otherwise.
Good cops? They will resign and cease to be cops. How can you be a good cop in a totalitarian society?
Yes, you can’t be a good cop right now. Everything a cop is forced to do is inhumane with regards to covid19.
Not from The Onion.
“Variants could be named after star constellations when Greek alphabet runs out, says WHO Covid chief
UN health agency fears variants of concern could outnumber the 24 letters of the Greek alphabet, Maria Van Kerkhove tells the Telegraph
New coronavirus variants could be named after star constellations once letters of the Greek alphabet are exhausted, a senior World Health Organization official has suggested.
In an interview with the Telegraph Maria Van Kerkhove, the WHO’s technical chief for Covid-19, said the UN health agency was already looking at new names for mutations amid fears there will be more concerning variants than the 24 letters of the Greek alphabet.
That system was introduced in late May and so far 11 mutations have been named: four variants of concern, including delta and beta; four variants of interest, such as eta and lambda; plus epsilon, zeta and theta, thought to be “of interest” but since downgraded.
But as the coronavirus continues to mutate, it is possible there will be more key strains than available letters. ”
They truly think we are all retarded. I guess enough are.
We might as well go to Vaudeville comedians after that.
– “Uh oh, have you heard the Fatty Arbuckle is going around?”
– “Hey, check it out, I got the Curly variant!”
– “Awww nuts…I only got the Shemp…”
It surely has become outright farcical.
Nyuck, Nyuck.
Soytenly!
My boy is almost old enough to introduce to the Stooges, and I really look forward to that.
That said, I don’t want him calling other kids numbskull, mongoose, porcupine, knothead or puddingbrain just yet.
I’d also prefer he not get the idea to put another kid’s head in a letterpress or whack someone over the head with a tire iron.
But soon enough, we’ll be in the clear to open the floodgates.
I recall watching the stooges pretty young and it never occurred to me to poke someone in the eye or hit them over the head with a frying pan.
Is that a boy thing? LOL
Quite possibly a boy thing. But you make a good point…I’ll try to get to it sooner rather than later.
The Stooges or the Three Stooges? I recommend that he acquaints himself with both.
Iggy Stooge (James Osterberg, aka Iggy Pop) called Moe Howard when his band decided to call itself “the Stooges”, and asked him if he had any objections. “I don’t give a fuck what you call yourselves, just don’t call yourself The Three Stooges“, was Moe’s answer.
Imagine being able to call Moe Howard at home… Those were the days.
Mary, yes, the Three Stooges are role models for young American males. Well, mentally healthy, well-adjusted young American males…
American Fedreation of Teachers “hinting at” blanket mandatory vaccinations, teach/staff/students. Including under 12 as soon as it’s approved.
The script is getting old, no matter who is reading it.
1. “We encourage vaccination, but it is an individual’s choice with their doctor’s advice.”
2. “We won’t have a mandate or a passport.”
3. “Since not everyone got the shot voluntarily, we may consider some form of mandate, but it should be based on local leadership. We urge the citizens to do their part voluntarily.”
4. “Kids should in no way be exposed to an experimental vaccine until it’s been tested.”
5. “We will have a mandate across the board, and we will have a passport.”
6. “We need to vaccinate kids under 12. Fuck it, babies too.”
And repeat.
Oh, I forgot:
7. “It’s for your own good.”
All over a cold that only kills old people with major comorbidities…
Yeah, conservatives have to stop saying, “a vaccine that hasn’t even been FDA approved.
It’s going to be FDA approved. Babies too.
They do need to stop saying that. But the politicians saying it know what’s coming, so they have to give themselves an “quotable out” for when the time comes.
*a
Dr Fauxi is now a regular guest of Cuck Todd.
After a couple weeks of Summer Vacay, Meet The Press, Earth’s longest running TV show were back and energized this morning.
He had all sorts of predictions. FDA approval of Pfizer and Moderna very soon. A variant worse than Delta is coming. Cases will surge the next few weeks.
I watch this phoney little sack of lying shit and cannot Believe how stupid people are.
When watching the interview of some “Amish folks” a while ago
(u-tube interview)
they were asked about the covid……
Their response………
“We don’t have covid because…….. (wait for it !!)
“We Don’t have televisions “!!!!!!!!!!
Priceless !!!!!!!!!!!
Those Amish – they tell it like it is, whether you English like it or not.
I knew most people were pretty stupid, but I am surprised they are THIS stupid.
I know, Right?
I saw a headline on Drudge yesterday whereby Americans, of their own volition, are now getting a 3rd jab even though that has not yet even been recommended for the compromised let alone standard sheeple.
“Better safe than sorry,” they … reason in a telling display of not having a fucking clue as to wtf is goin’ down.
Rubes.
Yep and the FDA will definitely approve the vaccines without question. I heard that it will happen by Labor Day. Once that happens they will take everything to the next level.
Just in time for the emergency unemployment benefits to be phased out that week.
Who wants to bet a shiny nickel that they’ll reinstitute those emergency benefits…but only for those who get the vaccine?
Yep that is what I think they will do too. It seems like I recall some Biden admin official saying that unemployment benefits should be tied to vaxx status basically.
Which of course makes absolutely no logical sense, as they are pushing employers to make the vax mandatory as a condition of employment…therefore, those with the vax can go to work just fine, especially with all the new jobs created by banning the unvaxxed from employment.
Yet they will still do it. Lawsuits will ensue, though. But those take money and time.
Monthy bills take money, but there is traditionally no gift of time.
Except for those who play ball and give up their convictions.
How about this – if they tie unemployment bennies to the vax, let’s throw monthly recreational drug testing in there too. It’s been talked about for a long time, always dismissed as “discriminatory” by the left.
That might just boggle their marbles to have to try and justify that disconnect.
Well yeah definitely if they are able to make you take medicine then they pretty much can make you do anything. Which at a very high level of psychology is exactly why they are doing this. And yeah they are defying the traditionally liberal idea that people had a right to decide what they did with their lives, healthcare choices and all. But that seems to be passe’ now so I wouldn’t be surprised to see lots of new intrusive requirements if you want to be part of their society.
Yup, we got nothing if they can make us do that. And by admitting it and allowing it, we’ll become nothing.
https://dailystormer.su/indiana-university-students-protest-against-mandatory-vaccine-ask-supreme-court-to-stop-it/
What rights do students have? None, ultimately. Or how about Employees? None ultimately since they can be fired. So how does being an employee jibe with being a citizen? It doesn’t. An employee is a part time slave. He has the freedom to sign on or quit. That’s it. And then he has to sign on or become the slave of a better master if he can find one.
Thus the “private” is the route they are going here. Capitalism is a slave system without a Bill of Rights. Europe is better in this regard, as it’s very hard to fire people on the continent. But they have no Bill or Rights so their citizenship is inferior to ours, theoretically at least.
The Revolutionaries, our Founding Fathers, did they ask for time off so they could fight? It wouldn’t have been granted. They were merchants or well to do farmers. Their own men. Late stage Capitalism has gone to war against such men for obvious reasons.
Y
We agree on this one.
Capitalism exists well in a primarily agrarian society eg America prior to WW1. People moved freely from area to area as the economic conditions required, Liberty was at a peak, small towns dominated, cities were big small towns, most transportation centers.
IMHO, the change agent that changed us to what fiasco we have today was the internal combustion engine. The decade of the 20s was the conversion of the agrarian form to the urban form. Corporations had been set back by the anti-Trust actions but were recovering successfully for them, and becoming more diversified. More importantly , they were centered in the cities. Movement from the rural areas to the cities took off in the 20s, the inflation of the late 20s took off, then the affordable tractor and car came on the scene. The effect on rural America was devastating, sharecropping almost disappeared overnight. People deserted farming and moved into the cities, which had little to offer them for jobs. The infantile corporations had their demand collapse, inflation turned to deflation and the Great Depression was born. The US settled into an economic model where 75% of the folks supplied the needs of everyone. 25% unemployment. Mostly in the cities. What do you do with 25% unnecessary people?
Welfare was born, SSA was born. To keep these people fed.
What do you do with 25% unemployment? Send part of them overseas to fight a war, and mobilize the rest. How to mobilize? Make tanks, bullets, planes, ships and many other expendables. Who made them?
Corporations, the start of the MIC.
When the boys came home, they went to work in those corporations to build the suburbs, This was the day of my parents. Dad worked for a corporation near the center of Baltimore, lived first in an apartment in the city, then a townhouse in the city, then a house in the suburbs and commuted. A typical JHK evolution.
Then the government started favoring the corporation for federal work and giving out tax breaks right and left. NASA, defense both focused work into corporations. The small and middle level economy shrank and still are being manipulated by the government.
Then Reagan changed the tax codes to become more corporate favorable, Clinton continued, and the final picture we witness today started to form.
A good example, corporations want college educated folks, we get student loans ad finitum.
Anyway, during the Clinton times, a huge change stated, the internationalization of the US corporation and the consequent move towards China. Just listened to the CEO of Nike tell us how wonderful China is.
Capitalism > incorporation> socialism> fascism or communism.
How can a hundred year’s of history be reversed?
Very fine recap, JohnAZ.
Tbhwu it seems like most forms of human organization are really just more or less complicated slave systems. The more humane and ethical systems which are very rare treat there subjects more ethically and humanely. That though has been proven by time to be the exception and not the rule.
Yes, I think so too. Time for you to read Uncle Ted (Kaczynski) if you haven’t already done so. The Manifesto is great reading. I think he’s revised it since I read it so I should read it again.
I think I’ll re-read as well.
Here’s a link for anyone interested:
https://unabombermanifesto.com/Industrial-Society-and-Its-Future-Theodore-Kaczynski.pdf
Just read through it. Yup, we have some definite agreements about what tech is doing to us and how the power boys use it to control.
He was ignored, went into seclusion. Some people become suicidal with depression, some homicidal.
The man had some really good points. The capstone wanted no part of him.
Ok, I will. I wish I could have been back earlier to respond to you. I’m glad you saw this one and commented because I guess I wasn’t sure if it was maybe a viewpoint that was a little extreme.
why do you assume (historical use of) the combustion engine was the pivotal error and not the cotton gin, or the firearm, or standing armies, or pursuit of empire, or intensive monoculture-agriculture, or institutional slavery?
I guess I’d say because none of those other things gave the power of affordable and quick travel to the average person?
You used to have to work where you lived. Suddenly people could live one place and work daily somewhere that used to be two days’ travel each way.
i don’t like romanticization of agrarian america. the united states were not a solution to european aristocratic rule, they were always an absolute continuation of it. farming in america was always either hard and full of overbreeding and poverty, or facilitated by slave-labor. americans need to let go of illusions that are much more deeply rooted historically than 100 years (invention of the auto), or even 300, or 500
imo
I disagree.
We should hold on to those romanticized visions of what used to be. Because by ignoring them we’ll all find out soon enough what it was like, and not know what to do with them.
Of course it wasn’t easy. But nearly everything got easier with the power of the engine.
Just saying everyone suddenly having access to a car or a lawnmower or a washing machine or a refrigerator made a much larger difference in the general population’s daily lives than cotton shirts, the rifle over the front doorway, or the relatively small percentage that went off to war to support the empire from time to time (though that certainly changed their lives more than a Chevy ever did.)
the automobile, and oil-energy in general, was a godsend to a population already utterly under the thumb of a european-global-trade-empire economy and a euro-template societal structure.
oil became an addiction because it provided an artificial relief from the euro-imperialist intensive-agriculture-addicted globalist society already in formation in the 16th, 17th centuries.
i.e. the oil addiction wasn’t the core problem. america’s core problems were well established before the colonists landed at Roanoke.
“i don’t like romanticization of agrarian america.
how ’bout in europa? does not Voltaire’s Candide end with a back to the garden theme?
I found Mr. Kunstler’s Blog because of my hate of said addiction.
It also gave the folks surrounding Detroit something to do for a living. It was a huge economic driver, still is, and pushed the urban, suburban exurb model right along.
You asked why I think it was the major change? Take it away and where would we be?
The next change of similar consequence is what we are living through right now. The computer, and add on, wireless age. We still do not know what the consequences of it are.
I would not be surprised that the destruction of the American way is part of it. When government can spy, propagandize freely, control the communications, totalitarianism is not far behind. Our individuality, our privacy is pretty much gone.

@ Mr. M:
Hmmm. Tubes. Interesting idea. Reminds me of the space elevator problem. The idea was to build a space elevator with a cage up to orbit so rockets wouldn’t be needed. You could take a nice vacation at a hotel orbiting the Earth. All you’d need is a suitcase. A counterweight at the end point of the elevator would extend thousands of miles into space, and would allow the elevator cable to be stable.
Only one problem: The elevator cable would weigh gazillions of pounds. So far a super lightweight and strong enough material that a cable would require hasn’t been invented. Yet. You’re young enough to maybe ride the elevator someday. It’s probably too late for me.
The same issue, to a certain extent would occur with some kind of tube from a solar-powered satellite to the ground.
So far a super lightweight and strong enough material that a cable would require hasn’t been invented. Yet.
Not true! With my own eyes I saw Scotty give the formula to an engineer at a plexiglass manufacturing company in Star Trek IV, back in 1986.
Transparent Aluminum, now apparently existent in some form, known as “Aluminium Oxynitride”.
I do not support mandated vaccinations, lockdowns, masks, etc. iIt x should be up to the individual to do what they want. That’s what liberty is all about. Living is full of risks. If the vaxxes aren’t effective (questionable), then it’s up to the vaxxed to protect themselves accordingly, not force someone else to make them safe.
It’s kind of like the 2nd amendment situation. If someone else decides to attack another individual, then that individual has the right to defend themselves, even if it they have to shoot the attacker to do so. Gun control is an attack on our liberty. Just my $.02.
Bill – Living is full of risks.
Ah, you are correct.
But we are now to believe that it never was full of risks, we just didn’t have this covid bug running around. We’re also to believe that no one should ever get sick or die from an illness (and seemingly, never used to, depending on who you talk to).
The world has split into two very distinct ways of thinking about this thing we used to call reality, wouldn’t you say?
Mr. Rational begins his backpedaling.

I’ve posted my viewpoint on this several times before. Nothing new here.

Nothing worth considering, either. We all know that, Shill.
Night Bowel,
You are so full of shit. When did I have a different viewpoint on mandatory vaxxes?
I have it on very good authority that no one gets out of life alive.
Lol
Jim ‘Lizard King’ Morrison certainly didn’t, his Parisian bath was just a mite too deep.
Which seems a trifle odd to anyone who has ever seen a french bathtub…few & far between as they are.
We must have the same source. I’ve heard it, too.
The Shill is witty. Clearly.

Enoch was transferred so as not to see death.
I dunno – in 1967 the final stanza of Bobbie Gentry’s “Ode to Billy Joe” wails “..there was a VIRUS going round/Papa caught it and he died last Spring..”.
At that time of miracle medicines it struck this callow youth as very odd (I didn’t then know about the iniquitous US “health system“).
Good to see that has changed and advanced – it might one day even reach Cuban levels of higher & rising (sic!) life expectancy, lower perinatal deaths and far better general medical care.
And literacy.
Don’t you se??? Bobby Gentry was an MK-ULTRA victim and this is a clear example of predictive programming. Just check Night Bowel’s trail of bullshit.

Though I do find the tone a bit too intentionally abrasive, it is his First Amendment right, isn’t it.
You are correct, Mr M. I treat everyone with respect until they, usually completely out-of-the-blue, snipe me.

Good day toxic-poisoned, dying scumbags,
Do you still get your Health information from your TV or do you prefer The Truth?
For the first 54 years of my 56 years, people would look at a scientist claiming that he/she/it is “following The Science” like a charlatan because no Real scientist would speak so stupidly.
[“The Science” from people pronouncing data as ‘dat-ah’ like a fucking moron. Exactly like one. “The Science.” “Oh la, saleema!” Hahaha!]
Of course, our current global “pandemic” of over 200,000,000 cases and over 4,000,000 deaths and almost 4,000,000,000 jabs has taken us from “normal.”
“Booga Booga!”
Now liars lie on TV with claims that they “follow The Science.” FYI – That is a euphemism for “Go along to get along.”
Just as Patrick King of Red Deer (Hello Justice [sic] David Salmers, you life-destroying corrupt piece of shit) forced Queen Lizard’s hand because the Province of Alberta cannot possibly produce a Real World sample of this claimed SARS-CoV-2 virus, the CDC in Atlanta was unable to satisfy a simple FOIA demand for this alleged killer virus.
https://www.globalresearch.ca/foi-reveal-health-science-institutions-around-world-have-no-record-sars-cov-2-isolation-purification-anywhere-ever/5751969
The CDC cannot provide a sample of what they locked-up Earth for a year and a half for! I shit you not.
The whole thing was a hoax. The whole thing was meant to inject you with 80,000,000,000,000 Gargoyle Gooze.
You sure are a dumb-ass. There’s no doubt about that.

“Please, doctor, get these evil toxic spike proteins out of me! It is creeping me out what they are doing to my capillaries. Please!”

“Google Play. Yes.”
“Good. Roll-up your sleeve. This will hurt a lot.”

So … why now the doubling-down with Dr Fauxi on Cuck Todd’s Meet The Press this morning?
WTF is going on? SARS-CoV-2 does not even exist yet they are doubling down trying to get a vax for it into everybody ASAP. That makes no sense.
Are you Really that stupid? You’ve got 80,000,000,000,000 Beezelbub’s Toxic Jizz ripping your innards apart 24×7 until you die and they are talking about bumping you up to 120,000,000,000,000 of Satan spluge even though they can’t provide a sample of why they are doing this to you!
You Really should smarten up, ya dope. They are killing you. Pay attention!
D’uh!

Dr Fauxi made many disconcerting predictions while chatting with Cuck this morning:
1) FDA will approve Pfizer and Moderna soon
2) We will be jabbing under-12s soon
3) We will see a Big uptick in cases and deaths in these weeks ahead
4) We will see a more deadly variant than Delta soon
How stupid are you? Will you submit to a 3rd jab of 40,000,000,000,000 Demon Spunk to get your VaxPass current so you can watch Matt Damon on the Big screen? Do you think that Dr Fauxi always knows what is next because he’s such a hard-working, noble scientist?
You are, of course, a fucking moron.

See you on Judgement Day, dipshit. I look forward to seeing the look on your dismayed face as you’re finding out it’s Real and demons drag you kicking and screaming to an eternity of misery as you so Justly deserve.
Have a Great Sunday! Try to get extra sleep on weekends on account of your meat puppet is being ripped to shreds and you will most likely die a horrible death soon.

Hey RL!
More raving loony-tunes from our local Village Idiot.
5) Booster-jabs for the elderly & compromised soon
So my wife just told me that Dick Farrel, a prominent conservative radio show host and vociferous anti-vaxxer has died. Personally, I never heard of the guy, but I feel badly when anyone dies. Oops, I should say I feel badly when most anyone dies.
It was announced that he died of Covid. But, but, I thought covid was a hoax! Oh, I get it. He really died WITH covid. What a coincidence. Or maybe the media and medical industry lied, and he really died of a spider bite, or something like that. Or maybe Bill Gates bought him off for
Or maybe Queen Lizard and the CDC had their respective dogs eat their respective homework.
How can they possibly know that anybody has died of a virus that they cannot prove even exists?
As for Dick Farrel, the liars are lying. D’uh!
Of course, TPTB get a lot of bang for their buck whacking Dick Farrel. They silence a voice of Truth while nodding, “I told you so” to the frightened sheeple who then further Believe their false narrative.
What ‘truth’, you numpty?
Prove he died of “Covid.”
Don’t let us down again, Bill.
I’m only quoting my wife, who saw the news somewhere on-line.
Yet you posted so defiantly, as if you’d gotten one over on us.
You are a marshmallow of a man.
So it’s gossip, got it.
Gossip…your stock-in-trade.
Not really.
I back up my claims with data and facts. But those hurt your feelz, so you reject them. Not my problem, fake Trae.
“I back up my claims with data and facts”
Good one. Very amsuing. Provide data to prove THAT.
Ummm…congrats, I guess?
And what about all the young men who have gone down with sudden heart inflammation out of the blue after vaccination, at a rate far higher than seen before in a calendar year? Funny thing is their deaths will be labeled as an undiagnosed heart condition (not possibly the vaccination), and Dick Farrel gets to go down as covid.
And people say, “See? Covid got the anti-covid guy!”
I’m surprised they didn’t label Rush as a covid death, too. He must have paid off the doc beforehand to make sure his years-long cancer wasn’t put down as covid upon his death.
Also, please folks, stop capitalizing covid unless it’s at the beginning of a sentence. Like the internet, it doesn’t deserve that status anymore.
Good point re: capitilizing covid. It’s a cold. We don’t capitalize ‘cold’ or ‘flu’ even.
Yeah they sure like their ‘gotcha’ deaths by covid. LOL, so babyish.
“And what about all the young men who have gone down with sudden heart inflammation out of the blue after vaccination, at a rate far higher than seen before in a calendar year?

Mr. Mango, you’re falling into the same cognitive trap that afflicts MaryQAnon, HOG Boy et al.
From the statement above, please advise:
> How many does “all the young men” refer to?
> “their deaths” – how many deaths among these unfortunates?
The statement below is from The Mayo Clinic (probably a lying weaselly organ of the ‘deep state’ but then, it does have a history of medical competence, so I’ll go with that):
“While reports of post-vaccine myocarditis in some areas are higher than baseline, the imminent and greater risk for heart damage and death continues to be from becoming infected with COVID-19. Up to 60% of people who are seriously ill with COVID-19 experience injury to their heart, and nearly 1% of fit athletes who had a mild COVID-19 infection show myocarditis on an MRI.”
and to give it some context, there were 23 cases out of 2.8 million vaccines administered in the US Military. Note – no deaths mentioned…
“A retrospective case series published in JAMA Cardiology studied 23 men in the U.S. military who were hospitalized with myocarditis symptoms within four days of receiving the second dose of a messenger RNA COVID-19 vaccine. Three of the patients previously had been infected with COVID-19, and their symptoms started after the first dose of the vaccine. The cases occurred between January and April. Sixteen had received the Moderna vaccine and seven had received the Pfizer vaccine. For context, it is important to note that the military administered more than 2.8 million doses of messenger RNA COVID-19 vaccines during that time.”
RL – sorry, but your response is asinine.
The mayo Clinic literally starts out with “While reports of post-vaccine myocarditis in some areas are higher than baseline…
That was my only point. And it’s true. So stuff it.
He doesn’t know how NOT to make an asinine comment.
Poor Fake Trae wannabe.
Mr. Mango
Read the rest, THEN come back and slap me about.
MaryQueer – just GFY.
No, your response is the asinine one, Mr. Mango.
It was not your ‘only point’. You claimed there had been deaths among these young men but offered no proof, only your bald-faced assertion.
I asked you to provide evidence of your two claims – how “many” young men were you referring to, and how many deaths do you have evidence of?
I provided evidence that there were only 23 cases in 2.8 million vaccinations and that was no evidence of any deaths. If you can refute that, please go ahead. Otherwise, your apology is assumed.
It was announced that he died of Covid.
Well, as we all know, that must mean it’s true.
It was also announced that a US ship was attacked in the Gulf of Tonkin on August 4th, 1964, and an entire invasion and two national disasters ensued, taking place for years to come as a result. But that turned out to be…well, just an announcement, not a truth. Oops.
USS Liberty
USS Maddox was “actually” attacked a few days earlier, according to both sides. Though the only evidence of it was one bullet hole. Vietnamese must’ve had some crap torpedoes…
So, tell your wife to pay better attention.

Looks like he probably stuffed himself with Big Macs.
Plus, dyed his hair.
LOL!
So you are saying he had covid and died from it because he had co-morbidities and/or an unhealthy lifestyle?
BTB, these two clowns are laughing at his weight & hair color because they can’t admit the virus exists and DOES kill people.
MaryQ’s particular ongoing bullshit about vaccine injuries is a joke, as is her laughable “Covid doesn’t exist” punch line.
It’d be a pity if our MaryQAnon comes down with the crud and suffers a couple of weeks of a ‘bad cold’ on a respirator…after all she’s old enough to be vulnerable and carries on with highly risky behavior while unvaccinated. I guess she’d never be able to ‘fess up to it, though so we’d never know.
(oh, and based on the pictures on that link, he would certainly NOT qualify as ‘morbidly obese’. He’d be jus’ yer av’rge ‘Mercan…
Like the best of the Coronau propaganda, the writers made sure to include the classic emotional/fear-inducing punchline.

Peter update:
Periodically Peter gives my wife (his sister) a check in the amount of $XXX for room and board. I would have said monthly but Peter cannot be constrained by something so specific as “monthly” so what he does instead is write two or three checks out at a time, all with the same date on them.
These checks sit in a particular place in our kitchen. Sometime during the first week or two of a month my wife will take one of these pre-written checks, endorse it, and deposit it in her checking account. Today was to be that day. I looked at the check and discovered two problems: 1. Peter misspelled my wife’s last name. We’ve been married 48 years so you’d think he’d have the spelling down pat by now but, no. 2. My wife’s misspelled name appeared on the payee line and then AGAIN on the amount line followed by the amount, illegibly scrawled.
I wrote VOID across the check and we will need to get a replacement from Peter on our next visit to the Rehab facility where he is now residing. NOTHING is ever simple when dealing with Peter.
Q – I honestly can’t tell if these updates are real, or if they are more like creative writing being submitted to a magazine for serial publication.
If real, oy. If fiction, it’s coming off strong so far.
Either way, I’ll keep reading!
No, they’re real. It goes back years, from when Peter still lived in Florida.

F×kk me 70 people shot already this weekend in Chicago, 12 dead, including a female police officer gunned down during a traffic stop. (Her partner is in critical condition). You have to admit that’s some serious mayhem. Its not even 6:00 pm yet still a whole night to go. I know I sound like a broken record reporting these bloodbaths in Chi and Baltimore each week. I don’t take any pleasure in it. Later year I took Black Lives Matter at their word; urban blacks are a peaceful people set upon by the police. But look what the police are dealing with. HeyJackass.com reports 94% of shooting victims are black, 4% Hispanic, 1% other, 1% white. Whitey is getting off easy it seems, except they are being carjacked by the dozens every day. It looks like this state of affairs will go on forever or until there is nobody left to shoot. I do see Chicago going the way of Detroit.
Brh
maybe we could just hand over half of these cities or so to black america permanently?
Maybe I’m over stating the situation, Gus. For example, tonite the Cubs are playing the White Sox in the Southside of Chicago, ground zero for the carnage, yet altho not a full house attendance seems strong. On the other hand, we’re seeing the disorder and mayhem endemic in The Community closing in on major league baseball stadiums, with the shooting last night in Denver, a few weeks ago in DC, and violence at stadiums in Baltimore and DC. It seems the copious BLM ××skissing the Commissioner partook in (moving the allstar game, hanging banners, donating large amounts of money) hasn’t done a bit of good.

“FDA document admits “covid” PCR test was developed without isolated covid samples for test calibration, effectively admitting it’s testing something else”

Yeah, we know.
N.O.
I don’t see a link at Naomi Wolf’s August 2, 2021, piece to the actual FDA document. The info she cites seems to stem from last year. Which doesn’t mean it is invalid, but it still seems odd.
When I did a search of the quote she pulls out, I got a lot of hits coming from 2020 (Reuters fact-checkers, etc.)
I did find this letter, also from 2020:
“Covid 19: NEJM and former CDC director launch stinging attacks on US response”
https://www.bmj.com/content/371/bmj.m3925/rr-2
The letter says:
Dear Editor,
I was glad to see Janet Menage’s rapid response asking “What does this mean?” because I, too, want to know what the CDC meant by:
“Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available, assays designed for detection of the 2019-nCoV RNA were tested with characterized stocks of in vitro transcribed full length RNA (N gene; GenBank accession: MN908947.2) of known titer (RNA copies/?L) spiked into a diluent consisting of a suspension of human A549 cells and viral transport medium (VTM) to mimic clinical specimen”.(1)
As Public Policy Director of a nonprofit with a mission to restore scientific integrity to public health policy, I have stayed on the sidelines of the debate about whether or not SARS-COV-2 virus actually exists, choosing instead to focus on educating about existing inexpensive treatment protocols that are being marginalized. No matter what the cause, people the world over are being hospitalized and dying, and the first step in eradicating fear is to provide hope. Knowledgeable practitioners have been using nutrient and oxidative therapies, as well as non-patentable drugs, to successfully address viral infections for decades and longer, and those same methodologies work even if the exact viral cause of the symptoms is unknown. They are working for those who “test positive” for COVID-19. (2)
But the world has been devastated by the unprecedented response to a “novel virus” with severe shut downs and restrictions, and in some places, such as my home state, there is no end in sight to the measures, despite the existence of effective treatments, the fact that more than 99% of individuals are not at risk of severe infection outcome, and the peak in fatalities was over months ago. We are told to continue distancing, masking, and waiting for vaccines, which are unlikely to provide a safe or effective solution, based on the history of coronavirus vaccine development and the results emerging from clinical trials.
We all deserve to know the truth about this virus and what PCR test results really mean.

She says simply that they just released the document that is linked.
The info. is not new anyways, as it has also been discussed to death at the Stiftung Corona Ausschuss.
Drosten’s phony PCR test was based on a computer model of the virus. That was proven. There is no evidence that the virus has ever been traditionally isolated/that the full genome has been sequenced.
N.O.
“She says simply that they just released the document that is linked.”
I know that is what she said, but I don’t see a link.
She is a journalist, so . . . it would be advisable to show the link or no one can cite her with any cred.

“CDC Director Admits to CNN That COVID Vaccines Don’t Prevent Transmission of the Virus”
https://twitter.com/RWMaloneMD/status/1424049249323388928
The greatest hoax in the history of man.
It is amazing that “very smart” professional can get it so wrong.
A simple explanation of the vaccine’s character I gave earlier, IMHO. When vaccinated or catching the disease, the body is left with antibodies and memory cells. The antibodies decline with time as the inflammation subsides.
So here comes delta, slightly different. The immune system turns on in a period of time, especially if the antibodies are mostly gone. B memory cells are the source of new antibodies and it takes a finite period of time to fire up the response. So what do we know about delta. Little, but we know it is faster to infect and reproduce than alpha.
So a faster infection going against a finite immune response says that it might get a toehold in the nose for example before the body knocks it back. During this interval, mild effects and transmissibility will exist.
Vaxxed folks especially long ago vaxxed may pass it on as though they had not been jabbed, but for a shorter period of time.
This is my hypothesis on what is happening. Hypotheses should be coming from the experts, the science. Maybe there are no experts.
That is when politics take over.
Thus the vaccine passport is meaningless and therefore, unnecessary.
Yes!
Delta is a variant that seems to have traded speed for danger. Possibly due to prior exposures, possible to asymptomatics, possibly to vaccines it is compromised in its effect.
It is not even the flu any more to prior exposees. It is not even a cold.
To a non-vaxxer though, what is it? In amongst all the chatter about delta, I have seen nothing about its role as a novel virus. IMHO, so many people had Covid last year and did not even know it, they are part of the non reaction to delta we are witnessing.
The mortality rate is nothing, the hospitalization rate is small, the new cases rate is one tenth what it was last year. This is puny.
Listen to Biden and his crony in the CDC and you would think the world is coming to an end.
If people would just think things through, what a difference it would make. Delta is nabbing who is left to be infected, unexposed, non vaxxed(don’t bother to deny this) folks with a mild form of infection that three years ago would not have made the news. Once done, Covid will disappear. Hopefully.
The Twitter link didn’t open but when I deleted most of the tail it did open and I was able to find the Tweet. I believe it is also on Zero Hedge, here

“Property permits people to thrive, and not necessarily at the expense of other people.”
“The first man who, having enclosed a piece of ground, bethought himself of saying ‘This is mine’, and found people simple enough to believe him, was the real founder of civil society. From how many crimes, wars, and murders, from how many horrors and misfortunes might not any one have saved mankind, by pulling up the stakes, or filling up the ditch, and crying to his fellows: Beware of listening to this impostor; you are undone if you once forget that the fruits of the earth belong to us all, and the earth itself to nobody.” –Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Maybe back in the olden times,
A family unit grew up to a certain size and then two people of the family said, this area is not big enough for all of us. Agreement or a fight ensued with the consequence that one part of the family group moved on.
This repeated over and over and over and over until we have gotten to the place we are at today where very little land is left.
In medieval Europe, serfs did the work and the manor holder owned the land. Sharecropping, an outgrowth of slavery, was the same.
An owner owned the land and others worked it for a wage.
When the New World was discovered, people from everywhere came here to acquire their own land and that continues today, whether it is land or a good job.
It is part of the American experience to own your own spot of land.
nice.
jaz – the population problem is only relevant to post agricultural-revolution man… that is, .2% (!) of our 500,000 year history

100% agree. Throughout history, no new resources (land), conflict breaks out. As a planet, we are pretty much out of resources. What next?

How is this not completely evident to everyone at this point??
Sheesh. Mind-bending that it isn’t.
It isn’t mind-bending. I have experienced manipulation enough on the micro level that it becomes very easy to detect at the macro level, even at very early stages. The manipulative tactics being used are very similar to those of narcissists and other toxic individuals. Control is all that matters.
Many people don’t have that experience, and, even if they did, we have now hit the point things have gotten most dangerous: lots of people have taken the frankenshots, and it is nearly impossible to convince someone that they have been played once they have been played. This is why you have people (as we have discussed previously) getting paralyzed or worse and still claiming that they would do it all again.
We are in a fight now. And if we lose, the chains go on.

Couple comments
The “sterilization” of our societal environment has been blamed for the increase in allergies and autoimmunity. Our immune systems never get educated by the introduction of the myriad antigens it needs to see to learn to ignore some of them as harmless. Kids need to play in the dirt, eat dirty stuff, esp. now that it looks like a big part of the immune system is in the gut. Back in the pre immunization days, mothers got kids together when chicken pox or measles showed up to get it over as kids.
No.2 is the presence in kids of the thymus gland behind the sternum. It seems to elevate the adaptability of kids immune systems to antigens. Could be it is responsible for kids not having much trouble with Covid 19. It pretty much disappears by teen age years. We do not know much about it. The action moves into the spleen, gut and lymphatic system in adulthood.
JohnAZ said, “It is part of the American experience to own your own spot of land.”
” In the olden days” the land was divided and never sold.
It will be again.
Gee, youse Americans are so exceptional. Us 95.7% of non-American Earthlings sure are envious of your alls’ land ownership thing.
Own land! Wow! Only in America.
Wow, what a wise guy.
Please note I said people came from all over to the New World with the idea of owning their own land. I think Canada falls into that category.
It is an American legacy to own land. And many others too. The US however, contrary to your views, has been in the lead on how resources are allocated for a long time. The Constitution’s main function is to protect that legacy. However long it lasts.
You struck a chord. A one trillion dollar infrastructure bill is about to become law.

My favorite thinking magazine Skeptical Inquirer part of CSICOP on their facebook page had links supporting the vaccine which led to CNN. Is it my becoming old or that my old shows like Star Trek, Dr. Who, Star wars are being torn apart that led me to my sadness?

“I wonder how many little guys are going to get screwed by the PTB with this legislation”
I wonder how many are going to be helped by improved infrastructure, including small businesses and large businesses that depend on roads, bridges, broadband, etc. Trump passed a $1.7 Trillion tax cut that was not paid for. The $1.2 Trillion infrastructure bill will pay for itself and improve our communication and transportation to the benefit of everyone.
The North Dakota Republican argued that the bill contains valuable spending for basic infrastructure including roads, bridges and airports, which are essential for the movement of goods throughout the nation.
“Of the $1.2 trillion, $450 billion – that’s over a third of it – is not just infrastructure, it’s roads and bridges specifically,” Cramer told host Maria Bartiromo. “In addition to that, there’s ports, waterways, railroads, airports broadband, all of which are critical to the movement of goods and services around this country and around the world.”
Another excellent interview with Dr. McCullough. The interviewer is annoying IMHO and blathers too much, but Dr. McCullough is spot on.

any chance FDA will refuse to fully approve vaccines?
Fauci says booster shots are coming soon. They’re all in on it. They’re all a part of it. I just think there is no chance they won’t not only approve it but again as Fauci said there will be a flood of mandates. I hope I am just paranoid but all they ever talk about is covid and the vaccines so this is their world and their story now as far as they are concerned.
The chances of the FDA rejecting it are not high, IMO. They have suckered enough people into taking the frankenshots at this point that they have no choice but to authorize them.
And then you will be dealing with what France and Italy are dealing with.
You have to get on the streets, because they are not going to stop, and no one in the government is coming to save you.
The FDA will “approve” the untested jabs.
A lot of people will accept the fig leaf “approval” and cave in to the jabs.
And the credibility of FDA “approvals” will take a huge hit.
Somewhere I read some CDC type blathering about the EUA “process,” and I thought, yeah, I would love to know the exact EUA “process” for the covid jabs.
I would love to see an FOIA request for every document, email, phone call, related to the EUA “process” for allowing these jabs.
It feels like maybe Invasion of the Body Snatchers is a better metaphor for the current moment than say a zombie genre movie. The vaxx pushers literally do want to eliminate all the unvaxxed. Crazy you say!? I don’t think so. As soon as you get the jab you shed your unvaxxed self. There is no going back since the vaxx is gene therapy. So yes, in essence the rabid vaxxers want to eliminate the unvaccinated. And just like in the movie the whole thing grows until eventually the world is changed. They don’t want anyone to escape. Humans are not supposed to live in a system like this. Maybe that is why the vaxxes are changing DNA? So “people” can more easily adapt to it?
Jump back jack, I don’t need no vax! Roving packs want to vax you to the max, don’t need no axe, just the vax, coming to get you, so don’t relax! 🙂
Good stuff as usual, Jim.
It seems that MMT really got off the ground in 2008. If the Fed didn’t begin the creation of huge amounts of money back then, it is said, asset prices would have cratered along with GDP, and unemployment would have soared. A major depression, like the 20’s and 30’s, most likely would have occurred.
Some economists believe that a few years (?) of severe depression, eventually leading to a healthy restructuring of the economy should have been the way to go. Normal interest rates would have come back, and the weight of excessive debt and leverage could have been pretty much eliminated, along with the financialization of just about everything.
So, along with no robust, structural changes to the system for over ten years, and now with the added economic warping of loan, rent, and mortgage forgiveness or moratoriums, on top of those damaging lockdowns, on top of trillion dollar spending plans, it seems that MMT is a truly magical and mysterious answer, defying the theories of many learned economists. Right. For how long?
Will the sheer need for the dollar overpower any loss of faith in it?
Is it really possible that as more and more money is ‘printed’ it will still retain its value? Maybe just the need for food and shelter says it will do so. In this environment, any questions or doubt about debt must be eliminated. Once you do that, there is not much difference between $30 trillion in debt or $60 trillion.
The Fed wants some inflation but the question now seems to be, can they control it. Under the existing economic scenario, maybe massive inflation will lead to massive insurrection.

If the jabs are lethal as Dr. Robert Young’s analysis of graphene oxide conclude, a mandatory jab becomes a demand for an employee to commit suicide to maintain employment.
