Even While It Was Happening, It Wasn’t Happening Was there really such a year as 2020?

Michael Lesher

You know how it goes: if a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, et cetera…?

Suppose an entire society goes to smithereens, while our media elites stubbornly refuse to notice. What then?

Suppose the reporters and the pundits and the “experts” ignore the coup that has trampled our basic freedoms since last March.

Suppose they all assure us that defending democracy is “anti-science,” and preach to us that civil rights (except for Black Lives Matter protests) are nothing but a “death cult.”

Suppose, after an “election” conducted mainly in the press, on the basis of a torrent of worthless propaganda, a notorious corporate whore is about to be installed in the White House as carnival-barker-in-chief for scantily-tested vaccines – drugs being peddled by a gang of profiteers who wouldn’t even make the stuff until they were promised complete legal immunity for whatever they do to their victims.

Well? Does the murder of our liberties even make a sound?

Was there really such a year as 2020?

In his Nobel Prize acceptance speech in 2005, the playwright Harold Pinter had this to say about every atrocity concealed by the Western press:

It never happened. Nothing ever happened. Even while it was happening it wasnt happening. It didn’t matter. It was of no interest.

And so much never happened this past year!

Four-fifths of the United States of America suspended democracy and declared the Bill of Rights obsolete. The United Kingdom unleashed a new sort of “police” – faces masked, truncheons in their paws – to maul peaceful protesters for the crime of breathing. In parts of Australia, it became a criminal offense to tell other people the time and place of a political demonstration. Germany outlawed political protest.

But none of that happened. It wasn’t reported in the mainstream press. It was of no interest.

In just over nine months, economies in once-wealthy countries were reduced to ruin. Social media reeled under systematic thought-policing. Following a wave of “executive orders” that shuttered small businesses across the United States, an unprecedented number of Americans began to steal food to survive. In the U.K., UNICEF is distributing food to hungry children for the first time in more than 70 years. Around the world, people in need still can’t get medical treatment. Cultural institutions have been shattered. The performing arts have been banned. Singing was deemed a public health risk.

It didn’t matter.

This year, for the first time in history, more than 40 governors in the U.S. awarded themselves quasi-dictatorial powers – on the strength of laws hastily designed less than 20 years ago for massive bioterrorism attacks, pressed into service to counter a medical “emergency” that was never an emergency. By the end of 2020, most of the American population was still living under dictatorial rule.

That was of no interest.

Huge numbers of people, in Europe as in America, were placed (without a court order) under virtual house arrest. This was called a protective measure – and it was reported as such, though the practice violated civil-rights rulings going back nearly a century. Tens of millions of people saw their livelihoods snatched from them by officials they never even had the opportunity to confront.

Yes, a handful of states that did not imprison their populations or wreck their economies claimed to have medical results as good as – if not better than – neighboring states that did both. Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson went so far as to assert all this on May 5 in the editorial pages of the Washington Post, a main purveyor of coronavirus propaganda. But those claims were never investigated in the mainstream press. They didn’t matter.

Now the mega-corporations that supported the “lockdowns” are sucking the life out of the small-business economy that was once the mainstay of the free world. For restaurants, the picture is so bleak that chef and author Edward Lee calls it “the end of the independent restaurant era,” and warns that…

we will lose the culture of all of our American cities…. [W]e will become a nation of corporate chain restaurants that will look and taste the same in every city.

Culture is under attack from other directions as well. London’s theatres, heirs to one of the proudest dramatic traditions in the world, are closed for the first time in modern history – and whether they will ever open again depends upon the whims of politicians. Musicians and other artists have been devastated by “social distancing” rules that never made any sense and have never been obeyed by the powerful.

That doesn’t matter, either.

In respectable society, it can’t even be talked about.

The U.K. Labour Party’s Angela Rayner – last seen threatening to expel “thousands and thousands” of members who don’t think their country should be governed by Israel – is now grousing that…

[o]ur children should not have to rely on humanitarian charities that are used to operating in war zones and in response to natural disasters.

You’d never guess that the self-righteous Rayner actually supported the economy-wrecking madness that caused this deepening poverty – in fact, back in May, she wanted even stricter police-state tactics than those the government imposed.

Governments lied to us throughout the year about the nature of the medical threat we faced, about what they planned to do about it, and about what it was going to cost us.

Formerly-esteemed scientists tried to tell us that the hype made no sense. “We’re falling into a trap of sensationalism,” Stanford University’s John Ioannidis said as early as March 23. “We have gone into a complete panic state.” The interview containing those comments was soon banned by Youtube, even though Ioannidis is universally recognized as “one of the world’s foremost epidemiologists.”

Prominent scientists who signed the Great Barrington Declaration suffered a similar fate, smeared as fringe elements promoting “craven lunacy” and a “brutal” attempt to “let people die” – in other words, as Nazis.

But that wasn’t name-calling. And it wasn’t censorship, either – even though Reddit’s moderators promptly banned the Declaration. Such facts mustn’t be mentioned. Breathe the word “censorship” and you’re a right-wing fanatic.

Speaking of fanaticism, though: an 18-year-old American college student is behind bars at this moment in the Cayman Islands. Her crime? Watching – by herself – as her boyfriend competed in his last jet-skiing race of the year, after she had received not one but two negative tests for COVID19. It seems other people attending the race snitched on the woman, resulting in a four-month prison sentence for cutting short a fourteen-day “quarantine” – one that was issued without a court order, of course.

Once upon a time, we would have called those snitches “collaborators,” if not “heartless fanatics.” Now their actions are praised by newspapers and prosecutors alike: after all, they were protecting the public “health” by putting a young woman in prison.

New vaccines for COVID19 are another way of protecting the public health, of course – they have nothing whatsoever to do with the billions of dollars pharmaceuticals companies are likely to make from selling them.

Never mind that the Food and Drug Administration had to short-circuit its own rules in order to authorize their use. Never mind that the manufacturers had to be promised that “for the next four years, [they] cannot be sued for money damages in court over injuries related to the administration or use” of their new vaccines – a blanket legal immunity that is “very rare,” according to a prominent labor attorney. (Oh, and you can’t sue the FDA either.)

None of that matters. None of that is of interest.

That’s why CNN’s “political analyst,” Joe Lockhart, could recently insist that the government ought to prevent Tucker Carlson from stating inconvenient facts about those vaccines on his Fox News program. The First Amendment doesn’t matter any more, you see. Joe Lockhart says so. He’s a representative of a press outlet calling for government censorship of another press outlet – for expressing an opinion he doesn’t agree with.

And? Has anyone in the “free press” complained about Lockhart’s breathtaking treachery – attacking the Constitution’s press protections while handing over a colleague to the Thought Police? Not as far as I know.

Because, you see, none of it happened.

Just like the rest of the coronavirus coup. Even while it was happening, it wasn’t happening.

It didn’t matter that all the recent hysteria about COVID19 “cases” was based on the results of a manifestly unreliable testing procedure. It didn’t matter that inexpensive and effective treatment for the disease may already be available, with no serious side effects, from drugs like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. When the highly-credentialed Dr. Pierre Kory tried to interest Congress in the use of these medications – from which no one stands to benefit except those suffering the worst cases of COVID19 – he was the target of an astonishing smear by the ranking Democrat on the Senate Homeland Security Committee.

That was typical of official reaction, though: after a group of physicians announced the promising results of the same drugs on December 4…

no major U.S. media outlets reported [their] pleas for help from the federal government to act… Nor did any representative from the CDC, the NIH or the World Health organization contact them,

…according to one of the rare alternative news sources that bothered to report the story.

So the unproven vaccines will roll out everywhere; Big Pharma will get even richer; poor people will be allowed to die. As manufactured claims of rising “case” numbers stoke renewed hysteria, government after government will subject its citizens to further mass house arrests, even though the experience of Belarus – which did not impose “lockdowns” – strongly suggests that the mass-incarceration strategy does more harm than good.

To those in power, all this is of no interest. It didn’t matter. It never happened.

And to the rest of us?

That will depend, I suppose, on the steadfastness of people who care more about the truth than about conformity.

Those for whom words still have meaning, and facts still matter.

Those who are not ashamed to touch, nor afraid to stand up.

Those who will not swallow lies nor ingest a fraud.

Those to whom the word “freedom” isn’t an insult.

Those are the ones who have truly survived the ghastly year 2020 – and on whom our future depends.

I’ll stand up and be counted – no masks, no vaccines, no blind compliance with nonsensical and demeaning mandates. I don’t know how long I can hold out, but I won’t be giving in without a fight. I’ve got young children and I won’t be complicit in destroying their future.

Judging by the good people working at OffGuardian (thank you for keeping real journalism alive) and many of the people who frequent this site, I won’t be the only one. My warmest regards to all of you, and I hope some of us get the chance to meet face to face in the future!

To be fair, some of the critics of the response to Covid refer to the great mass of people as “sheeple”, one character on another site who thinks it all a big conspiracy can’t seem to restrain himself from writing about the “cattle”.

Off topic a bit, although it falls within the general range of medja BS.
I never took the claims of Obama’s birth certificate being fake seriously – I guess I did not identify with the tea party Republicans who make a noise about it and never looked at the claims.
A short video here, suggests to me that, indeed there always was a case to answer. The same pattern every time : sudden appointments of personel with unacknowledged connections, sudden freak accidental ‘deaths’, documents disappeared from the archives, media blackout, truth seekers smeared, questions only answered with accusations of bad faith arguments….

Has anybody who visits this site actually caught the virus? Well, I have, 3 weeks ago. I’m 75, had 2 heart attacks over the past 8 years but otherwise in good health. My immune system works well (I haven’t had the flu in 45 years and I can’t remember the last time I had a corona virus attack, sorry, a cold). Am I freak? Maybe, but I eat healthily, take my VitD3/K2 every day (northern hemisphere), don’t eat junk food, have a low carbohydrate/organic fat diet. So why aren’t I dead?

The timeline:

Monday, went out, took a bus to Clapham High St, did shopping, came home (this is in all likelyhood, when I caught it, probably on the bus);

Thursday, woke up, no sense of taste or smell but otherwise, no symptoms;

Friday, took the TEST, which by the way, I NEVER got the result for;

Saturday/Sunday, didn’t feel well but otherwise, again, no symptoms;

Monday, took a shower and felt really bad, almost keeled over, thought I was having a heart attack;

Tuesday, decided to go to A&E re the heart. It wasn’t my heart, it was the Virus and I had bacterial pneumonia in 1 lung. Was in A&E for around 4 hours then went home (that took me 6 hours as no transport, finally broke the ‘law’ and took a cab);

Took penicillin for 5 days and by 27 December I was over it and formally cleared by the medics.

After effects? Yes, no energy, get tired easily, walking up 3 flights of stairs (lift broken) wiped me out. I put this down to, a) the Penicillin and b) my immune system working overtime, so body using a lot of energy but getting progressively back to ‘normal’.

Observations: Theoretically, I’m in the very vulnerable, tiny percentage of the population, yet, if you count the days from infection to cure: 14 days (I’m certain I got infected on the Monday as I never went out after that, so the incubation period of 3-5 days looks accurate).

BTW, my local hospital, St. Thomas’ had a nurse phone me every day after the 27 Dec, for 5 days to check up on me. Excellent medical support and, I might add, A&E (then anyway), did not appear to be overloaded, medics and support staff were relaxed and at no time did it seem they were worried about me.

So why didn’t I die or even get really sick? Caught it relatively early and got right treatment and this is my interpretation; didn’t catch VIRAL pneumonia which IS dangerous to some and my body, in spite of age is obviously in pretty good shape.

My immune system works as designed and perfected for the past few million years; haven’t had flu shots or indeed any vaccinations since I was a child.

Make of this what you will. It’s totally unscientific and devoid of statistics.

BTW, a final observation on my GP’s performance who, after 10 months and no doubt the letter from the hospital, phoned me up for the first time to inform me that I was on their vulnerable list. Hah!!!

Here we go again! How can somebody “catch” something – in this case an alleged virus claimed to be pathogenic that has never been proven to physically exist??
What about your body’s reaction to a multitude of causal factors other than an alleged virus? For example, toxic materials produced as metabolic waste inside your body and toxins coming in from outside such as those in our food and water and pollutants in the air and environment. If these substances accumulate in the connective tissue of organs etc the body will eventually mount a defence involving increased excretion via mucous etc and inflammation and also fever depending on the conditions in the body.

This is just an oversimplification of the issue but it should give you an idea as to why you came down with some of your symptoms. Stressors and Seasonal weather changes play a part too, changes in solar energy, temperature, humidity and other factors.

Glad to here that you are otherwise in a good state of health now after the two heart attacks. You might be interested to know that some of the things they still teach in medical school about the heart are not strictly correct. Contrary to what nearly everyone is taught the Heart is Not a Pump.

For example, in 1932, Bremer of Havard filmed the blood in the very early stages of embryonic development that was circulating in a self
– propelled mode in spiral streams BEFORE THE HEART WAS FUNCTIONING! This is well documented in a paper by R Marinelli et al entitled The Heart is not Pump,a Refutation of the Pressure Propulsion Premise of Heart Function. Enjoy!

The heart interrupts blood flow just like a ramp pump. Ram pumps can run forever with no external energy input. There are a few scientific papers on this subject from the 1930s.

Look up Gerald Pollacks’ 4th phase of water or EZ water.
‘Social’ water self-structures adjacent to hydrophilic surfaces. This can be shown to be a negatively charged region of ‘EZ water’ (has gel like properties) that is bounded by a positively charged boundary relative to the bulk water (or blood).

The body uses this energy source which is magnified by light – particularly NIR wavelengths.
In a simple lab set up a piece of hydrophilic tubing induced a flow through it that was continuous.

There is a vast realm of electrical facets underlying what we thought we knew or had ‘explained away’. EZ water – in cells capillaries and in weather systems (and in a sense in the self-organising patterning of plasma filaments that connect galaxies) – but water is a medium of translation not just of energy, but of information.

There is a sense in which the heart is not a pump and the blood is not just a hydraulic system. And truth is not just as our object models locks us down to mask in.

Yes you can look at Tom Cowan’s latest with Veda Austin for even more ‘out there’ results than Emoto. She hasn’t done it all under strict lab conditions but make your own view.
Benveniste as with others was suppressed but waits the right timing for acceptance. If not aware of Cowan already you will likely appreciate as he is also Steiner inspired.

In some ways we are at a nadir of spiritual ignorance and I see more ‘Light coming in’ as the disintegration of a masking reality and its ‘contraction to a control model that in my view cannot but fail.

Steiner’s prescient quote on a vaccine against spiritual awareness is relevant. But underneath all appearances and reactions is what we truly want and act from. In some way we are participating in the whole Script or experience and yet have choice as to where we stand and the purpose we align in.

I see a lot of the control agenda reveals more about the devices by which the mind is supported in its experience, but there is a lot going on that is opening or rediscovering greater perspectives – and part of the roles of the conflict-mind is to bind free attention in the fear-driven reflex.

Remember Jacques even if the alleged virus could be proven to exist they could never prove that it alone is THE cause of Covid-19. They could only do that by eliminating all other causal factors which are involved and that’s precisely what they do!!

They therefore stick with Louis Pasteur’s fallacious germ theory based on mono- causal reductionism and pretend that any inconvenient or intervening causes don’t exist! According to them it’s nearly always a single strain of virus that causes a single infectious disease and that applies to diseases allegedly caused by bacteria too!

Even if the test for Covid which cannot test for Covid because it was never meant to do so, came up positive it would be completely meaningless. In fact nobody really knows precisely what the test results actually mean. That applies to the AIDS tests too. It’s therefore not surprising why people are befuddled by these bogus tests.

Thank you for sharing your experience. There are aspects I don’t fully understand.

I have not been ill with anything this year.
Someone in my household did ‘get Covid’ this Christmas. It has been a strange couple of weeks. They tested PCR through work obligations (care worker). Positive came through same day they fell ill. I was sceptical- thinking that they probably had a cold and a false positive.
They showed a succcession of symptoms, just as I read about people experiencing nine months back : fever, then headache, then nausea, then fatigue, then recovery, then sudden complete loss of taste, then a rash….a new thing each day.
I think it is fair to make the point that ‘loss of taste’ is too vague a symptom to be distinguishing, as indeed are all the symptoms of Covid – and that that, combined with politically driven testing regime has led to misattribution.
However, seeing someone up close has convinced me that Covid is a distinct disease, with an unusual progression of symptoms.
She made a full recovery after about ten days, was not particularly ill, no pneumonia. Her care work client in her 90s also fell ill, and is also recovered.

Loss of taste as well as loss of smell can result from zinc deficiency in addition to other symptoms.

I don’t doubt it can have other causes. She experienced a sudden complete loss of taste sensation – literally from one hour to the next. I struggle to understand this in terms of a nutrient deficiency, and it is not like anything I have (or she had) experienced with colds or influenza.

I can certainly understand your concern here but I have only mentioned one possible cause among others that can lead to dysageusia as it is called.
It can also be linked with flu-like symptoms, neurological symptoms, sinus problems and others.
However, there is no scientific evidence that I am currently aware of that can Prove that it was caused by the alleged SARS-Cov-2 virus or any of its alleged mutations that are claimed to be the cause of Covid-19. both
Diseases always have multiple causal factors involved and cannot simply be reduced to single causes such as an alleged pathogenic viruse or bacterium. Failure to identify those factors has partly led to the mess we are in now both politically and scientifically.

I only wrote the original comment to say, that up until I had seen it close to, I reserved the right to be sceptical about Covid 19 as a condition, per se. There have been so many lies told.
Whatever the cause of my friend’s illness, or that of other people ill this year with similar ‘consecutive’ symptoms (a virus, or some other as yet unidentified cause) I believe that at least some people have had a hitherto unusual sickness.
That is all I would want to say. It is nothing more than anecdote from me anyway.

If bacterial and viral response is to a challenge of environmental deficiency and toxicity perhaps in an already compromised function and under psycho-physical stress, then toxic exposures can be beneath what our ‘trained normal’ interprets to be contagious disease – for a number of reasons that many here are aware of.
The idea of biological communication between cells in an organism and among organisms as well as extending to the Planetary Biome, is valid and has many pathways or perhaps forms of expression within an energetic field. Not the some of the RNA ‘vax’ uses electrodes to nullify the cell’s electrical field integrity in order to hack in to what would otherwise maintain integrity.
The key I see is that living biology – or Biome has integrity – such as to receive ‘viruses’ rather than be ‘hijacked’ but in demonising natural healing process, we become the demonic intervention set against our own cellular and self-integrity.
All the characteristic assigned to viruses apply to ‘virology’ as pathological interventions that are as needy of sickness for their funding and control, as the Military Industrial complex is on war. And again the same patter applies; fear creates the very thing is purports to protect from and we become the thing that we hate – but under a blind spot of dissociative certainty that only increases sacrificial investment in its model as evidences rise to reveal truth too terrible to disclose for something deeming itself too big to fail. Some of that is true. There is a psychotic result from disclosure that is potentially very dangerous. But unless a way is actively made to move through fear – which means owning fear, then fear is mapping out and directing what remains thinkable in an increasing death spiral of limitation and loss for the sake of ‘control’.

PS
As a consequence of this experience, I have wondered if the ‘isolation’ issue, might have more to do with the provenance of the virus, than with a complete absence of a virus (i.e. a whole cloth hoax). You will know that there is a lot of circumstantial evidence supporting a bioweapon hypothesis. Heck, operatives might be releasing any number of variants in any number of places. It is at least plausible, if they are serious about resetting the world…

They rarely use bioweapons because they are less effective than other means such as directed energy weapons or certain chemical weapons. There are however a few exceptions.

Injecting variants? – and perhaps finding other ways through our defences such as airborne nanoparticulates and or energy exposures and a synergy of factors where none on their own would point back to the culprit in a court of law – such as glyphosate and other anti-biota exposures.

The seeking for ways to regulate populations in a range of characteristics that includes cognitive functions, fitness, health reproduction and life span is also the genetic controls by which to breed purposed tools. This overlaps with merging biology with technology and the transhuman agenda.

The biotic imbalance may be the context of the ‘alien thinking’ that drives what seems a Luciferian or destructive hate for life. We call it psycho-pathy and I associate this with trauma. I have read that children are traumatised as part of developing ‘obedient tools’ and I also hold that torture – however it is ‘justified’ has extremely dehumanising effects on those who consent to engage in systematically overriding the will of other living beings.

I don’t know that any ‘new’ virus is involved but that the psyop is the weapon that does not need any fact to operate. Only belief set by reacting to it as if fact.

May I ask what were your symptoms, other than feeling like keeling over in the shower?

How did they identify your bacterial pneumonia? I’d expect you to have at least some obvious symptoms from that, like coughing up phlegm, but you haven’t mentioned anything like that.

Anyway, I’m full of admiration for your vitamin D3/K2, low-carb, no-junk food regime, and no doubt it has kept you relatively healthy all these years.

May I respectfully suggest you add vitamin C (ascorbic acid) to your regime?

I personally wouldn’t take antibiotics, but if I were forced to, I’d be even more inclined to take vitamin C, and lots of it, to support the immune system, because antibiotics tend to inhibit it, since they tend to kill the microorganisms in our gut, which are part of the immune system (some say the most important part). And take probiotics, like live yogurt or kefir. And increase my vitamin D3/K2 intake.

I’m not that much younger than you, and haven’t taken a prescription medicine for probably over 35 years, and am rarely ill (touchwood! of course) and am reasonably fit and active, though I do get the occasional cold. They tend to come on if I slacken my control over my diet or my supplement intake (which tends to happen around Christmas time! 🙂 ).

Moonshot International Symposium Working Group 1 Dec. 2019

Expanding human potential toward a society in which everyone can pursue their dreams

https://www8.cao.go.jp/cstp/stmain/mspaper3.pdf

CONCLUSION

Of the 25 related examples of moonshot goals presented at the visionary council, WG1 study started to consider 2), 3) and 6), centered on 1) Create and deploy “Cyborg technology” to augment human capability by 2050.

2) Fully ubiquitous and inclusive mobility by 2040

3) Create and deploy advanced avatars enabling most daily life can be done through avatar by 2040

6) Universal medical access at the global scale by 2040

In reviewing the situation, the MS Goal candidate will be accepted by many people as a goal to be achieved by the year 2050. Discussions have been undertaken from various perspectives, such as clarifying the image and the spin-off expected in the process of R&D.

Based on the above discussions, WG1 has set up the following MS Goal candidate: “By 2050, realization of a society in which human beings can be free from their limitations of body, brain, space and time with harmonious empowerment”.

WG1 proposes C-Avatar Capitalism for Diversity and Inclusion as well as C-Avatar Life as two concrete targets to promote this realization.

That is the job description of machine thinking.
Self-image as a modelling of virtual consciousness imposed upon Creation.
Creation is not truly mocked.
Prometheus ran of with a copy and set his own torment by believing separation trauma was punishment for guilt. The whole thing is a package unto itself – but having WANTED the mask to be real, it wont come off. It’s no use blaming your Parent in undying defiance.

The covid thing is a case in point. If you look closely you will find it is a complex of reactions built on lies. Perhaps the comptrollers deem them noble lies or necessary lies, that operate within a mind and world of lies made ‘normal’.

As Adam Curtis pointed out, when pursuing dreams runs out of steam and then the nightmare kicks in as if it had never really been away – but only covered over with an invoked defence of machine thinking or conditioned response modelling.

The MBS/CDS whom crashed in 2008 and we stil have it, but I guess some of you stil dont know what that is and the fallout of it.
What shal we then call it, capitalism, facism, socialism, communism, huh, tell us, instead of just throwing out one liners and drool something about rightwingers, witch I usualy despice as much as I cant stand the fake left.

Coronavirus Conspiracy

Posted onFriday 28 February 2020

The psychopaths who rule us must be shitting themselves when they see the plebs so discontented. It’s pitchfork time, folks! but not if the psychopaths can help it: cue the Frankenstein flu, which apparently started in Wuhan last December and has now spread all over the world. Many people think that the coronavirus is a fake pandemic, and I’m inclined to agree with that view. All you have to look at is the total coronavirus hysteria being pumped out by the presstitutes, and look at the lock-down of huge numbers of people and enforced quarantine. There’s never been anything like this before with previous flu scares, and particularly since coronavirus has only killed a tiny fraction of people when compared to normal seasonal flu, and as with seasonal flu, coronavirus only badly effects the old and those with vulnerable medical conditions. It’s not only the presstitutes who are in hype overdrive, it’s also the big social media companies. I’ve never done a search on YouTube for ‘coronavirus’, or looked at many videos about it, yet on the YouTube landing page this is what gets pushed to me as ‘breaking news’ (it’s French language because I live in France, which incidentally reported the first cases of coronavirus in Europe)…

In the last week or so the presstitutes have been muttering that coronavirus might cause another global financial crash; but anyone who takes an interest in these matters knows that for a number of years now we’ve been due for another mega financial crash. This seems to be a chicken and egg scenario: will the coronavirus cause the economic crash? or has coronavirus been engineered to mask the economic crash and keep the angry plebs under control with enforced lock-downs and quarantine?

As I type this on a Friday afternoon, the end of the working week, stock markets worldwide are collapsing at the fastest rate in history. Some people think that coronavirus is a scam, that the psychopaths will make huge sums of money out of a crashing stock market, and then next week or whenever the World Health Organisation (which is as corrupt as hell) will announce that the crisis is over and the markets will go back to business as usual.

Whatever the truth behind it all, over the coming days and weeks you might have to hold onto your hat.

You may discern an addiction for insane thinking – but discernment is of truth and uncovers truth as you are willing to accept.

What you probably meant was – you want your old life and world back.
Everything you have truly lived is part of you, so don’t presume that you are only a victim of circumstance.
Seek and find any instant of sanity by extending willingness and appreciation for what is true. This open the release of what was never true, and the conflicts and burdens that came with it.
You have to actively WANT what is already true to offset an already active choice or conditioning in wanting truth to fit the judgements that operate as mutually agreed definitions by which to hide truth and make our own.

It is essentially anti-democratic, anti-intellectual, anti-socialist and works covertly or overtly in collision with large Corporate, Banking, Military interests to form a Corporate Fascist state.

Thank you, sums up how people have traditionally seen ‘far-right’ quite well. I’ll quote you.

Problem is that it tends to be used for anyone who doesn’t support the globalist agenda. Orban is ‘far-right’ because he doesn’t believe in open borders. New Zealand’s post-war Labour Party would now be considered ‘far-right’ for the same reason. I voted Labour for 40 years but I’m ‘far-right’ because I don’t believe that this year’s seasonal viruses are a justification for imposing totalitarianism.

And of course ‘anti-democratic, anti-intellectual’ and ‘works covertly or overtly in collision with large Corporate, Banking, Military interests to form a Corporate Fascist state‘ describes ‘the left’. There was an awful inevitability about self-styled ‘left-wingers’ like Owen Jones and Jeremy Corbyn who pushed the imperialist line of evil Assad on Syria, then becoming globalist mouth-pieces on eg covid.

As for charismatic leaders, you can debate which is the most extreme, the Trump or the Corbyn cult. There’s supposed to be a Jacinda cult but mostly a media creation.

Suddenly everything was mRNA.

Well they’ve just been found. Given to plebeians by accident.

That’s a political thing. mRNA is the technology used by Pfizer and Moderna and as American companies are the only vaccines currently certified for use in the US. The US is at the center of the universe so what’s going on outside our borders is only interesting if its quaint or can be contrived to be a threat. It follows from this that our media will only mention vaccine developments in other countires in passing because those developments are obviously inferior and in the case of Russia and China are likely to be uselss concoctions, inventions of totalitarian propaganda forced on a cowed and submissive population.

(Yes, its really that bad over here at the moment. For example in recent print media China’s ‘go to the moon and get some material’ probe got a paragraph or two inside the paper while speculation about a likely attack by Iran (on what?) was front page news.)

Be careful wandering into this Hall of Mirrors. The story smacks of a plant.
Event 201, in fact, had a whole sub-plot about “conspiracy theorists” making accusations that “the Elite are getting the real vaccine, while the masses are getting a placebo.” [EDIT: actually, I think it was the earlier “Crimson Contagion” exercise held by Robert Kadlec and the US Military-Intelligence Combine that featured this plot point.]

Notice that it all goes to reinforce the core Narrative in two ways: 1.) that the “disease” is real and correlates to real, immunity-producing anti-bodies; and 2.) that “vaccine” is essentially synonymous with “antidote.”

It all seems conveniently designed to get the steeple to bleat, “Oh I’m not going to fall for your tricks! I don’t want this vaccine–I want THAT vaccine!” It appeals to what I call “suggestible skepticism.”

It’s also possible that the politicians have been sold a different narrative. They claim that the virus has indeed been isolated and that they have a safe antibody vaccination as a result. This is being withheld from the public for obvious reasons.
The leadership class receives the “real” inoculation whilst the population poison themselves, or even worse in the sincere belief that they are acting for the greater good of society.

Good essay. For another take on 2020, consider Jacob Siegel’s “2020: The year the elites failed upwards.

One theme that has been going around in my head this year is that we see 2020 as a crescendo not only of “technocrats gone wild!” but also of what you might call Fiatworld. No not the Italian auto brand, but central bank generated fiat money (if it is money) which allows elites to become ever richer, their hirelings ever more comfortable (and powerful) but, at the same time, never accountable by either nature or society. Run a monopolist yet profitless business for years on nothing more than good PR and hipster bullshit, no problem. Wage war in some godforsaken part of south Asia for decades with nothing to show for it except endless graft and corruption, and destroyed lives at home and abroad, no problem. Elect a carnival barker president of the US (or Prime Minister of the UK) and the pretend it all had to do with Putin for four years, no problem. The elites and their bootlickers in the media and academic and nonprofit worlds will cheer it on, ’cause fiat money is endlessly pouring in to their coffers, so what’s not to like? Welcome to Fiatworld! Great for those on the inside, pretty crappy for everyone else. But who cares about the proles anyway? Happy 2021! Same as it ever was.

Your attempts to continually blame ‘the left’ for the lockdowns is dishonest, disgusting and invalidates everything you print. And demonstrates that you are a part of the problem, not part of the solution.

The far-right ARE in power in the UK, under Johnson leading an extreme neoliberal branch of the tory party, and in the US under Trump, who is one of the most deregulating, Corporatist stooges in American history.

Both have made it possible to implement every aspect of the neoliberal lockdown, and have opposed NONE of it. which is intent on destroying small business for their rich Corporate chums.

They are both protecting the CIA’s scientists and circumventing democracy by allowing illegal laws to be made, they are both an integral part of the whole Covid scam, however much they, and you, try to distance them from it, and however much you try to blame the totally powerless none existent left, which the CIA have helpfully created a pantomime version of on Twitter for you.

A left wing which you imagine is behind the scenes pulling the strings by sheer force of will. Absurd! You will be telling me next that the left want Amazon to grow their monopoly or Netflix to replace our entire culture.

I can see you are a branch of this scam, because you are here trying to make the far right the heroes, and the freedom fighters. really, I don’t think so.

It is a subjective statement but I will give it a stab at what I would consider left or right if I may interject in the discussion .
Left IMHO would be a socialist tendency whereas it relates to health and welfare.i.e. housing subsidized for those that are unemployable / unemployed , health care for all at taxpayer expense , a means of pension upon retirement from the workforce .
Right IMHO would be conservative tendency whereas health care is private and only available to those that can pay .Same goes for housing and retirement funds.In short fend for yourself and depend on charity from those that have a conscience .
I could elaborate but then again ,I repeat ,it is a very subjective view.

Indeed. So answer the question raised by changing one word.

“…housing subsidized by…”

Because you see, a subsidy by definition implies at least one entity doing the subsidising.

And no, the answer is not “government.” Government gets its resources from somewhere else. SO “government” is not doing the real subsidising.

Follow the trail and think about the answer.

It really is past time to get rid of the “left vs right” paradigm. Yes, I get that the right wing is as to blame as the left, but really, IS there a true left in the US? I sure don’t see one anymore. When the “left” tells you to vote for Joe Biden, who will “restore the soul of the nation” it sounds a whole hell of a lot like MAGA to me. Two wings of the same bird of prey. What passes for “left” here right now is so damned worried about masks and proper gender/racial etiquette and diversity” while they completely ignore the further destruction of what is left of our civil rights, telling us those don’t matter because what they tell us to do is “for our own good.” Many don’t seem to give one shit at all about the massive unemployment that’s hidden behind a media that refuses to tell that little part of the story, and if one dares even mention that you’re immediately labeled a sociopathic right winger or a Capitalist apologist.

Of course Capitalism is most of the problem, but it isn’t as if that can just be shut down, locked down if you will, in one fell swoop while taking NO ACCOUNT of how we are all dependent right at this moment on such a system. It’s like magical thinking, much like the magical thinking of the “right” when one considers it – just do that one thing that will make everything all better, never mind the complex systems we live under, never mind the reality staring you in the face, or actually rather well hidden because, again, our media refuses to discuss the destruction we ALL face under that fantasy. And now there’s a vaccine, one rushed “to market” because of the deaths, which may or may not even be true Covid deaths mind you, but if you’re a good lefty one simply doesn’t question those numbers, EVER.

We are supposed to put our trust in the very same institutions that sold out for profit long ago, and if you question that mantra, that you’ll do what you are told to “save lives” then you are merely a Trump supporter, a right wing lunatic, or a rabid conspiracy theorist and guess who uses those terms – why, the “left” don’t ya know. Who are the ones who are ready to call the cops on their neighbors? Who are the ones who will throw you out of a public place for not masking? Who are the ones who will demand you take that shot of poison? Just where is THAT coming from again? Oh, right, the “left,” which in reality is not left at all, but mostly a bunch of sheep being spoon fed the flip side of the media lies that are fed to the right. While the “woke left” tells itself it is on the side of good, tells itself it knows about all the lies, it knows about the corruption, it is smart and educated and sees through the bullshit, that is most certainly not the case with Covid, is it? Nope. They believe whatever they are told about that, wholeheartedly, and will not make the connection that this is the same cognitive dissonance of the “right.”

We live under Corporate control, period. And they do not give one moments thought to “right vs left” except to keep the rubes distracted and divided. It has worked for decades, and it will continue to work for them. If it did not, there would not be the constant emphasis on it, would there?

Well yes, that I largely agree with, although that is not “capitalism.”

Regretfully I am none the wiser after reading your comment. You used abstract terms (like “capitalism” and “corporate control”) to make absolute assertions, without identifying which of their (supposed) relevant aspects were actually enabling or causing what you assert. For instance, what is the “corporate control” exactly? Does it consist of certain institutions, and certain role players? Maybe you can expound on that in a future comment.

People who cannot see the sky above are not at all likely to notice contradictions in public pronouncements and policy. It isn’t just a year that didn’t happen; it is a whole planet that doesn’t exist.

Anyone looking up can tell, if not right away then pretty quickly, that something is terribly wrong with the sky. It’s called geoengineering; and it achieves many goals the ruling class finds useful.

For most people, their only glimpse of the sky comes from its reflection on their cell phone’s face. And does that reflection prompt them to finally look up? No, it prompts them to curse the sky for interfering with their entertainment.

Accordingly, seeing the Dr Fauci’s and Bill Gates’s for who they really are, let along their agendas for what they are, is perhaps asking a bit too much of the cell phone crowd.

And that they’ll either make the PTBs to step back or even spark some movement toward a new view of the world, new ideology for the future.

To be honest, I can envisage the former, in which case the PTBs will probably try to pull some shit a little ways down the road, but I don’t see how some major turn for the better would be taking place anytime soon.

She says she agrees with the info I’ve sent her – Bhakdi et al. – and respects my position but will get her injection as soon as one is available anyway. She says it is simply her personal decision and she wouldn’t presume to make one for me.

The problem is, she is making a decision for me. You are right that “if enough people refuse, there is still hope.” But if enough people accept, the power of the resisters is gone and we will be forced to accept either a mandatory vaccine or one that might as well be mandatory because of all the restrictions that will be placed on us.

You are right that her decision will weaken the resisters and threaten our human rights. If we lived in democratic societies, her decision to receive the vaccination would not pose a threat to us. We would all be free to choose for ourselves and there would not be any consequences for that choice in terms of restrictions, etc. That her decision does represent a threat to our basic liberties is a reflection of the tyranny we are now living under.

Guys, I don’t live in the UK, so I don’t quite know how bad it is there, but don’t give up hope. The vaccination programs around the world are not going well. In France 300 vaccinated in the first 4 days, in the USA “an alarming number of health care workers are refusing the jab”. In Bulgaria where I live no more that 15% of the people are ready to take the vaccine. I believe that the situation is the same many places around the world. Here is one great article that you should read. According to the author Brandon Smith, the plan of the elites is falling apart. Try to unite and resist – the bubble will burst soon.

Likewise, as Prof Sucharit Bhakdi warned in the beginning – government responses to Covid-19 have amounted to collective suicide

Cortisol is a killer. Levels of it boosted, thanks to Government, SAGE and the mainstream media:

“Those to whom the word “freedom” isn’t an insult.”

It appears that “freedom” per se will have to be redefined. Likewise, a view of the world, an ideology will have to be formulated for the future – a concept opposite the fusion of man with technology, all connected to Big Brother on the path whereof the C-bullshit is setting humanity. Right now, we don’t have that. There are various interesting concepts (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_philosophy) but they are embraced by too few. Most people perceive “freedom” as the kind of “freedom” that existed in the pre-C-bullshit era. Going back to that ain’t gonna do it because that “freedom” has got us where we are in the first place, not to mention that it was a mirage, slavery shoved down people’s throats as “freedom”.

We are probably entering an Age of Darkness. Zillions of people have no fucking idea into what they’re being duped, and it will take some time before they realized how they’re being fucked over and before widespread opposition sprouts against the dystopia that’s coming our way. They’ll spew as much propaganda as possible to prevent that, and they might even vaccinate people into some android state, rendering them impotent, totally obedient. Who knows. It’s up to people to rise up and fight for their rights, freedoms. And if they don’t or, worse still, if they find being subjugated the preferred option, what does anything matter. Humankind will get what they deserve.

[(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_philosophy)]

I was born in the country where that idea first gained ground.

The concept is poorly defined. It has rather become a virtue-signalling catch-all. A way of saying “I am one of the ‘good’ people,” and affixing almost whatever you are currently peddling as good for the “community” to the term.

The “community” is not always a friendly thing.

And frankly, traditionally there was precious little freedom under the Zulu nation. If, metaphorically, the “nation” decided you will take a vaccine and you do not agree with that, you were in a potentially life-ending predicament vis-a-vis the nation.

PS. I have seen the concept advanced somewhat superficially in the comments before, and in my impression, without even beginning to consider the totality of what is (or was) the Zulu nation and how it manifested socially, culturally, economically, militarily and politically.

PPS. The approach is in no way unique to the Zulu nation or their near and remote neighbours. I regard it as just another version of the standard tribal identitarianism common to hunter-gatherer and up to fairly late agrarian societies. There is therefore a humongous onus on anyone suggesting the concept may scale up to a world of large nation-states, especially one with global interconnectivity as we have today.

yes, these are clearly paid trolls. that was probably a cut n paste job with a few bits changed around.

Since the left decided to abandon its original base, it also abandoned its purpose. Maybe the Labour Party always existed for the purpose of misdirecting meaningful opposition. Anyway, I’m not on the left/right/alt-left/alt-right tennnn SHUN! 2D plane these people are stuck in. The axis of freedom vs tyranny is never publicized because it will show that they’re all authoritarians who are stuck in this mode of thinking.

When you step outside the virus narrative then all is transformed. You realise that, stripped of all the emergency justification, what we have seen is the unmistakable emergence of a police state featuring fascistic impositions barely conceivable 9 months ago. The customary life of the West has been abolished and everyone is reduced to waiting for instruction from the media.

And one sadistic item on the radio today was a chirpy DJ assuming the saccharine “concerned” voice to make the very observation I just made but phrased as if it was all unforeseen. It came across as a reminder of what had been done to us just to make sure we understood but pitched as compassionate reminiscence. And this very DJ even had the nerve to taunt with an “optimistic” hint that perhaps things wouldn’t be SO bad in the coming year. And this was following news of increased restrictions which will regrettably have to be imposed due to the “deadly new strain”.

And I feel that these media hacks are so shameless they would even bring to mind that oddly prophetic mantra about “the new normal” from way back in spring, I.e. one of the most blatant giveaways as to the fraudulent nature of this virus, and still adopt that tone of innocent wonderment at how prescient some (never to be named) people can be.

This has already been admitted to be a lie. They have said there will still be lockdowns, distancing, masks etc. even for those who took the vaccine!

That’s why I previously said this vaccine must have the worst sales pitch of all time. And then there is the new variant which turns out to be a kinda Catch 22 matter i.e. I think they brought in the new variant to scare you into taking the vaccine but the vaccine was developed before the variant. I even pointed this out to a covid believer and my jaw dropped when he automatically went into “Ah but that’ll be OK because….” balh blah. He made up his own justification and then tried to pass it off as an official one.

Both have made it possible to implement every aspect of the neoliberal lockdown, and have opposed NONE of it. which is intent on destroying small business for their rich Corporate chums.

They are both protecting the CIA’s scientists and circumventing democracy by allowing illegal laws to be made, they are both an integral part of the whole Covid scam, however much they, and you, try to distance them from it, and however much you try to blame the totally powerless none existent left, which the CIA have helpfully created a pantomime version of on Twitter for you.

A left wing which you imagine is behind the scenes pulling the strings by sheer force of will. Absurd! You will be telling me next that the left want Amazon to grow their monopoly or Netflix to replace our entire culture.

I can see you are a branch of this scam, because you are here trying to make the far right the heroes, and the freedom fighters. really, I don’t think so. The fascist you champion, are part of this scam, it is all their dreams come true, as they form the core of US deep state.

Unfortunately my personal experience of the last few months has forced me to question this simple division between us/them. Because I have met some of the most terrible people among the ranks of those against, even among those leading the charge, so terrible I did not know there could be such terrible people among ordinary humans when there is nothing to be gained by being this terrible. Whereas I have found gentleness, sympathy, and an absence of dogmatism among many pro-narrative peoples, basically a humanness. I found dogma among many against the narrative, who are trying to fit in whats happening to justify their dogma, refusing as adamantly as some pro-narratives to even consider and assimilate any fact that doesnt fit in.
I found peoples who appear to hate humankind, or most of it, or to look down upon it (even their fellow fighters), I found profoundly frustrated peoples for whom fighting this dystopia is a way of venting their frustrations. I have found peoples who despite their vehemence, which usually amounts to goading others to take risks and do something, while they dont and remain safe, and in their lives are cooperating with the dystopia, each time finding a good reason to justify themselves.
Now, Im not implying all or most of the anti-narrative are like that. Some are truly exceptional. Just to say, its not totally black on one side, white on the other.

Have you considered that those awfully nice pro-narrative people are so splendidly agreeable because they still bask in the kindly golden warmth of that avuncular media and can so serenely trust in the good will of all those concerned TV talking heads who are the very ones to warn against nasty evil sceptics.

Meanwhile to be one of this latter designated satanic group is to experience the most severe disorientation possible and to realise that the situation we are in is more deadly than any mere actual virus could provide. And that it is the unquestioning belief in the virus that is the single most lethal part of the propaganda and justifies any amount of inhumanity from these happy media bathers.

Go and tell that to my fellow patients who were in the surgical ward of a big hospital during the pre-lockdown and lockdown period that they are in bed with Satanic people. by the way, Im not Christian and have never liked the division between good and evil. I am still immobilized, but no longer there:
go and tell the lady who was in the bed next to mine and who said some of the kindest words anyone has ever said to me when I was admitted with what I am now told is the worst possible injury, who within minutes through her simple human sympathy and intuition had felt what I was deeply like. But yes she blamed, but without animosity, the non-mask wearers for the current lockdown, but neither did she ever wear a mask, and she must have noticed I refused each time I was trailed out for yet another test.

Go and tell these patients, of whom one died in front of my eyes for what I would say was the wrong treatment (she was put on one of those infamous respirators against her will), most of whom were in deep pain, but the mobile ones helping those of us who couldnt move, because the nursing staff was not attending to us, both because they were understaffed (so many have resigned out of fear), and because none of us wanted to wear masks (even the pro-maskers: no one in the terrible pangs of pain, and needing regularly oxygen because of the exhaustion from the slightest movement can sustain any impediment to breathing). Go and tell one of the doctors without whom no injury can be cured who is firmly at his post, all alone, despite his belief in corona.

Go and tell them they are not worthy of being saved or that this overworked man is not worth our admiration. Each time I have a question, he makes time to see me. I wouldnt be writing this post had he not been by my side. Go and tell this other doctor, who wasnt on the operating team, but assured me you will be fine, Ill remain by your side. He was: I saw him after I had regained sufficient consciousness. He too is in the narrative.

Only one other patient was against the narrative. Look them in the eyes when after that lady passed away, who only that afternoon was chatting brightly, they all wished to go home because hospital was they all claimed making them worse. Tell the young 18 year olds there, who being legally adults, did not even have thebright to be visited by their parents. One was screaming, please call my mum, I dont understand what you are explaining, Im in too much pain.
I know one has told her children: never again in hospital, if I dont get better let me die peacefully at home. Her children confirmed: she’s in a bad way, but she’ll be with us whatever happens. No hospital ever again.

These are your ordinary people who believe in the narrative.

Next to that, someone associated with the person in charge of one of the main vaccines in one of the big pharma, as well as with the attorney general of his country, wrote to say how much he has appreciated my articles showing there is no virus and is going to present them with my book on the distortion of science, which Routledge published a few days ago.
And the desire to read the book as well as the sympathies flowing since my accident, are mainly coming from people pro-narrative, one close to its makers.

As to some of those engaged in the battle or at least against it, I do not wish on this 1st day of the New Year to list in public how they have behaved with me.
Certainly many havent, and some of the very best on the frontline are supporting my work in incredible ways,
Still even among them, dogma underlies their standpoint, whether it be political or scientific, except for 1 or 2. Simply Im aware of the limits and rarely argue back now: we will remain travelling companions until this dystopia is destroyed, but I hope afterwards we dont follow on their path, for nothing good can come of unverified dogmas and hatreds.

I learned my lesson after the magazine I was paid to write for about current events severed all ties because of my article showing no virus has been identified which appeared on the site of another organization. The magazine desperately wants to fit in what is happening with their anti-US stand, to the point they wont even read the article, in particular its analysis of articles pretending a virus has been identified. There must have been for them a US made bioweapon, yet cant give any plausible arguments since there has so far in effect been no pandemic (if there has been one, it remains undetected and unidentified) — there may have been desires and attempts, but given they’ve proved to fail, until definite proof, it remains speculation. Yet that magazine is leading the charge against the dystopia. The mainstream have their dogma and are preventing free speech,
so seemingly are those against the dystopia.
Same with another major website leading the charge: if they could silence me, they would. All that is keeping them back are I believe my connections.

It sincerely makes little sense that those against the dystopia are unable to unite, which is why I now believe we must put our efforts in uniting those pro-narrative, but who are not so for dogmatic reasons, nor for personal gain, unite them on our common humanity, get everyone to stand up and say: stop killing people. What have we come to: leaving those in bad health without appropriate care. We must face our utter dehumanization. We must ask life to forgive us: we have been playing at a make believe disease and make believe fears, while letting those truly in need unattended. This is utter blasphemy. We can only hope life will forgive us.

So what I felt you see is a tremendous need from many within the narrative to unite: it was as if my book and the email I sent all round was for them like a breadth of fresh air, a humane hand to hold on to…

In fact, I hadnt expected such a response and it gives me hope…

There is dogma and harshness on every side, just like there is incredible humanity on both.

No the patients were not afraid of the imaginary covid. believe me when you are yourself not well and in pretty bad shape, you dont worry about covid. Given they’re only taking in urgent cases, so we were all sent to be hospitalized from emergency, no one was there for a planned operation, everyone was in dire straits. But even then, from the way they talked there was I think no fear even before but belief that it was killing large numbers of people.

There was fear among the nurses, in fact some of us wanted to make a case of being left unattended to the point of our health deteriorating (like refusing to even take us to the toilet, which if your lower limbs are not in good shape, you cant do alone) because we patients did mot wish to wear a mask, and uk law allows you to be exempt.
Most nurses, especially the women, were totally inhumane: they forced a lady on oxygen to wear a mask and she later said she had nearly suffocated. Anyhow the weekend staff was the worst, as then there is no one to tell them off, though I did call a doctor who told them off, but rational arguments had little sway with the nurses, so they didnt listen to her.

At some point it felt like being in a camp or prison where the patients utterly dependent on the nurses, tried to propitiate them out of fear of being left unattended. The male nurses were on the whole fine and in fact knew there was no covid as they tried not to wear the mask, and they told me if they were caught without the mask, it was immediate dismissal.
They tried helping me out, like coming to tell me, if you need help, Im there, dont worry. But possibly they were dismissed as I didnt see them anymore. I am afraid I did refuse the mask, no matter the prison guard attitude. So because I was left unattended for more than 12 hrs, my pressure climbed to 20, and then it was a whole hullaballoo like you have to take pressure medication. I told them to stop talking nonsense and that I was going to file a complaint. At which point I was told by the nurses that I wanted to kill everyone there as well as their families.

Anyhow with 12hr shifts sometimes day after day, always wearing the mask, their state was unenviable: the lack of O2 and the excess CO2 must be taking a toll on them, notably on their brains. I told a young nurse who looked she was going to faint that none of us in the room would report her if she took it off, but I think she was too afraid to be dismissed if found out.
They will suffer much health issues later, so they are to be pitied.

Some are afraid of the vaccine: that does appear to be a red line at least for some. So I increased that fear by telling them what was in them. One newly qualified nurse came to say she may resign and join the protests if as a nurse she was forced to take it.

“At which point I was told by the nurses that I wanted to kill everyone there as well as their families.“

That statement contradicts your claim that there’s care and kindness from the covid cult.

There’s nothing there except lies and hysteria. When they’re not being hysterical they’re not standing up to the lies, but instead conforming, without resistance in order to not make waves. It’s so unreservedly cowardly and dishonest. In their tacit acceptance of the illegal and absurd diktats from an illegitimate organization like the WHO, they are supporting fraud and perpetuating the trauma and crimes which emanate from the lockdowns.

They have betrayed their patients and their duties and obligations as healthcare workers. Nurses and doctors alike.

Dear hope, thus far, we have accepted death as normal. Probably because there has been no way out from death. Most likely this will remain true; however, what is changing is that in the future (according to the plan), death will be “cured.” The mind controlled who point to people dying as proof of some sort of emergency pandemic have not noticed that the change is simply that. Noticing. Before we didn’t and now we do with confusion caused in terms: how we name things to spin stories for particular purposes.

There are a lot of loose ends in what has gone down this year. A lot of issues, details are unclear. Likewise, different people are at different stages of realizing what’s going on; explanations for certain things vary. There are people willing to consider alternative or even viewpoints, and agree on some issues and disagree on others. Most aren’t since a huge effort has been made in past decades to polarize people, to atomize society, to make it impossible for people to join forces, to agree on basic premises. People have been well prepped.

Be it as it may, the stuff people tend to argue doesn’t really matter; it’s mostly smokescreen.

The bigger picture is the dystopian technocratic totalitarianism that’s coming. Who care whether PCR tests are worth shit. They openly admit it, yet people don’t care.

Yes Jacques I am: you dont know me well. If Ive kept my credibility with those in the mainstream who have known me for years, it is precisely because of this. They know of my intellectual honesty: on issues I dont lie knowingly and goodness knows if I havent changed my viewpoints 180 degrees sometimes.
Thats the only reason they are wanting to read my book. I try to maintain an intellectual rigour. Im not omniscient, and make mistakes like everyone else so now I realise I didnt get everything right in the book or my own opinions have evolved. As someone said, dont hold against me what I sayed yesterday!

But the copy that was going to print in March was totally wrong in most of the chapter on the life sciences. I immediately contacted Routledge to request them the right to revise based on my readings due to current events. They gave me 10 days. They were the 10 most feverish days of my life, working without sleeping. Strangely, I could only go on with the Igor Moyetsev ballet music playing loud in the background 24hrs a day (my neighbours must have thought I had become insane!), which made me even more feverish. At the same time my phone was tapped, got a message from my backup email server that there had been attempts to hack my account…

Started with the beginning: trying to make sense of Pasteur’s chemistry experiments, then his biological ones, and those of claude bernard, slowly going through the decades, until present times.

To make it short, the version that appeared is much much better than the previous one and gave me in fact the thread of the book, connecting many disparate paragraphs. Anyhow took 11 days and sent them a copy: reasonable academic colleagues I value had told me you’re mad, you’re going to spoil the whole book, its fine as it is. You can write a new book on your current understanding…

Its only after one of editors wrote back saying I wanted to let you know how much I have appreciated the new version and there is nothing from our part to criticize, that I relaxed that those hadnt been the rantings of a mad woman…

Ive hardly ever had that conviction of a work well-done, of reaching the best I can. Im sure many will hate it and say its all rubbish. I dont care, it truly was for me an unforgettable, though very painful experience: a work born of utter suffering (enough, thats too personal!) and the satisfaction of the last full stop was incredible, but then I was only left with the suffering…

Anyhow no worries, I welcome this accident and the pain, as it has made me meet
extraordinary peoples and to feel for the pain of others: I mean its no longer for me a question of being the detached analyst or scientist. Its hard to express, you feel totally at one with suffering humanity, and you feel its suffering inside you, and you feel like telling everyone if I can make it through, you all can. Im no one special, not someone particularly strong.
Thats why this year I want to move on from the scientific and intellectual discussions, to the purely human. Ive been reading a lot of Frankl, and of spiritual philosophies from round the world.

Arthur Koestler was a Communist activist and then a leading anti-Communist writer (he was involved with the Congress for Cultural Freedom and was unbothered when it turned out some of its financing was from the CIA). In his book The God That Failed he wrote that people who make a smooth transition to a distorted society become distorted themselves although he accepted that quite a lot of rebels have neurotic motivations. I have read two biographies of him and Koestler was a fascinating individual but also a jerk or perhaps even worse, at all phases of his life.
Happy, contented people don’t join radical groups. Even if they did, they have sometimes been through the mill because they joined such groups and if they make it to power, are likely to have more than a few grudges. Felix Dzerzhinsky, for example, had teeth knocked out during a Tsarist police interrogation and lasting damage to his lower jaw left him with a permanent grimace, visible in many photos of him. That he wasn’t going to be a very nice person stemmed from that, and other causes.

Thanks for pointing that out R. I put it up to try and determine how many would eventually recognize what it was and what forces are really at work behind the smoke and mirrors.

Sadly, today the majority are too materialistic to see that spirit and matter are two sides of the same coin, but they have unfortunately identified with matter and have adopted mainly service -to-self materialistic pursuits that take precedence over service-to-others.

Insofar, as spiritual development is concerned – spirit (consciousness) has almost become a dirty word. If the opposing forces get their way it will become an anathema and is heading in that direction right NOW.

Consciousness or Spirit is the highest grade of energy that has substance, that we inherit and possess. If it had no substance it could do nothing and achieve nothing. Since it is an energy-substance it cannot be created or destroyed only transformed.

Insofar as malevolent forces are concerned they are at work in and through those who are working to promote the globalist and totalitarian agenda of the dark brotherhood and will never stop unless they are STOPPED. But from what I’ve observed so far you can guess the rest.

Sorry my friend. I assume you are a nice person with a good heart. As for me, I have explored almost everything from Kabbalah to Wicca to Zoroastrianism to Confucianism to Zen to martial arts where we trained to “fight” by channelling Qi (which I apparently was able to do). Exposing me to unsubstantiated new age transcendental spiritualism just brings out the sceptic in me.

So without further ado:

[Consciousness or Spirit is the highest grade of energy that has substance, that we inherit and possess.]

Really? And we know that how? Just because you say so?

[Since it is an energy-substance it cannot be created or destroyed only transformed.]

Serious?

You just postulated some “energy-substance” called “spirit” as blithely as a Paul on the road to Damascus or a Mohammad in a cave or a Plotinus teaching about “the One.”

So why is what you are saying “true,” and what they said then implicitly “not true?”

And how do I know I am “spiritual?” It seems only when I am actually “spiritual.” And how do I know I am not “spiritual?” Similarly when I am not “spiritual!”

Well, that sound like a neat circle of “reasoning.” Maybe you can sell that idea to some people.

[Insofar as malevolent forces are concerned they are at work…]

Oh well. The “malevolent forces.” They are back! Must I assume that is not the regular Casper the friendly ghost, or dread the thought, even Spooky!

Hhmm. Possibly we are dealing here with the new! improved! 21st century incarnation of the Zoroastrian Angra Mainyu or the later Manichean dualist “evil” and “good.”

The increasingly frothing COVID coverage will clearly continue to accelerate without respite and so I recommend that, instead of digging into the asinine details of the zombie script, you just step back to ascertain what this is aiming at I.e. what they are using the hysteria to achieve next.

And on hearing the radio broadcast again, what they want to achieve is painfully transparent. It went something like this:

“The new variant of COVID is much more transmissable and the police will have to step up restrictions.”

There’s nothing like making it obvious!

And it continues:

“Some people thought that partying was more important than protecting lives. Those who observed the rules said they were protecting the NHS.”

As for the surface content of the news, all you can hope for is that it becomes so overwrought that more and more people will start to think, “Hang on a minute…”

Which brings me to my next prediction: despite the psuedo Left’s continuing attempt to defuse all protest by telling people to continue to hide under their beds there will be gathering protest movements which will be relentlessly demonized in the media and threatened by the police, not to mention by the “good citizens” informally recruited to act as shock troops in the repression.

They have been trying to make people sick for 10 months. Everything they have done is designed to get people into the hospitals but it is only their hostages who are getting sick. Most people are healthier than ever having listened to real health advice that is driving pharma out of business leading to these desperate attempts to make people sick. We must increase our efforts to improve health with for example healthy eating and the breathing.

Driving pharma out of business? I’d like to think so, but with vaccines coming on stream, and testing still going like the clappers, masks being worn by more and more, and no doubt all the other PPE material, I’d say big pharma is doing better than ever.

Re “good citizens”: This was one unpleasant realization that hit me in 2020: Seeing people I once respected go into overdrive as face mask etc. warriors made me reflect on how I got to know them in the first place. Which was a can of worms… Could it be that the Ohio high school teacher lady I met through a Fulbright programme in Eastern Europe in 1990 has always been involved in ‘special projects’? Is someone actually paying her and her family to spew this relentless covid and BLM propaganda? She seemed like such a bright and caring person. Oh well.

You write good reports describing the current situation that we are in George, but sadly I do not see any positive suggestions as to what you think ought to be done about it.

This is Not a situation of “let’s wait and see” – war has been declared upon us whether you accept the fact or not. When the SHTF with full force it will be way too late to do anything of any significance as all forms of opposition will be put down.

At this juncture there is a window of opportunity to find a peaceful and lawful resolution via re- establishing a court system run by We the people based on common law to eventually replace the present corrupt system. Peace officers can then be appointed to enforce the court’s rulings. What say you?

Also every refusal has a larger effect than one might think at first.
Two weeks ago I went to an 8-man party where everybody, including my wife, was wearing masks.
I said I was against them and that others should feel free, as far as I was concerned, to remove theirs, if they wished.
Within five minutes, everybody had removed their masks.

Now, last night, my wife and I were invited to the same house, with mostly the same people. Not one mask was seen the whole evening, and the old normal was back.

Hopefully a lot of small refusals could end up strangling this covocrap for good, and all the unused masks will end up on Fauci’s doorstep.

I can’t remember where you are, but where I live, I unfortunately see more and more people wearing masks in the street, something which I’m glad to say has hardly been the case at any time before in this whole CONvid-19 game. For the first time, I’d say, it’s now the majority of people in the street in my town are now masked up.

They might partly be wearing them to keep their faces warm (I know someone who does that), but there are better ways of doing that (scarves, snoods/neck gaiters, thick furry jackets, etc).

We’re in the cold and flu season, but they’re calling it Covid-19 and New Variant Covid-19, and ramping up the panic, and sadly, people who didn’t fall for it before are falling for it now. They’ve been worn down.

But you are reacting now as part of the We the people Voz are you not? And telling it as it is, the problem is almost everyone here is doing the same thing and it’s almost become a competition to see who writes best without any viable strategies to deal with the problems in hand.

I have tried to put forward a strategy involving establishing a common law Court system to eventually replace the present corrupt system of injustice so that the fraudsters of the scamdemic can be brought to boot.

However, that seems to have fallen on deaf ears and there has been no further discussion only more further griping and negative criticism of the current situation ad nauseum. No doubt there will be difficulty in having to face up to this truth. The suggestion is the same – join the common law Court and restore justice for the people before what little freedoms we have left are snatched away to disappear altogether and become relics of the past.

If you have babies and young children it pains me to think what you will say when they grow up and ask you what you did in the struggle to help prevent the totalitarian regime which is now rapidly unfolding before your eyes – in which they will be condemned to live. The problem is real and will not go away unless We the people organize and act in a peaceful manner in accordance with the establishment of a common law Court system and the principles of common law – the true law of the land as opposed to the present corrupt statutory system.

To me the most underreported story – especially in connection with this Covid19-hoax is ….
CHINA – CHINA – CHINA!
I have always despised this Russia-bashing and this China-bashing in western MSM. But my view of China has changed totally by now.

Point 1)
Some weeks ago in a video I saw a representative of the Peoples Republic of China not only attending Klaus Schwab’s “World Economic Forum” but even holding a speech there. This was on the last meeting of the WEF. Possibly I saw that in one of James Corbett’s videos.
And I wondered what this communist(!) representative has to search for on a meeting of this neoliberal WEF, which represents global oligarchs, who want to “privatise” the institution “state” and take it away from the citizens and hand it over to the super-rich.

Point 2)
Today I came across this great article:
“CHINA’S GLOBAL LOCKDOWN PROPAGANDA CAMPAIGN” –
https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/china-covid-lockdown-propaganda

China is not only totally onboard with this Covid19-hoax and with this “Great Reset”. It is pushing this anti-human agenda of the “Great Reset” more than anyone else!

Also read: “HOW THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT FABRICATES SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS …”
*https://gking.harvard.edu/files/gking/files/50c.pdf?m=1463587807 .

Point 3)
The western states are corrupt to the bones! Here about the Chinese undermining the USA::
“ERIC SWALWELL CHINESE SPY EXPOSES DEMOCRATS FOREIGN MEDDLING HYPOCRISY” – *https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38LnuK3Aktc

Point 4)
Merkel led EU just fixed a globalist trade treaty with China! Never forget that Germany has for hundreds of years always been a country of corruption (only “Prussia” was an exception – but that country has been annihilated and even ethnically cleansed at the end of WWII) .

Point 5)
And now about “lies”. If you are a logical person and if you were only listening to MSM you still could find out about what really happened – BY THEIR LIES:
Think of this lie of Osama Bin Laden. This lie of Osama conspiring with other Arabs to attack the US with kidnapped airliners was introduced to us to explain the “911 Terror Attack”. But the Bin Laden family has been best friends with the George W. Bush family. This story made no sense! Also Saudi Arabia was/is full on the US-ticket. Also it is said that Osama Bin Laden was an CIA-agent himself!

a) Li Wenliang
Do you remember this story we have been told just at the beginning of last year about this brave Wuhan eye doctor “LI WENLIANG”? And did you notice that this heart-warming, absolutely ‘Disney-like’, but very tragic story is never ever mentioned again by MSM?
It is not mentioned again, because this story was totally made up and could never have been true!
This is what they told us: A Wuhan doctor Li Wenliang, who was an oculist (eye-doctor) had a 89 years old patient, who visited him for glaucoma. Then this old patient died of pneumonia. Dr. Li Wenliang got very excited (why??) to research what caused that pneumonia in his 89 years old patient. And then he found (how??) this absolute new virus – to this day totally unknown to the whole world! And than Dr. Li raises so much alarm in the Chinese internet that the Communist police of Wuhan arrested him and put him in jail. And then Li Wenliang comes free again but soon he (totally healthy and only 34 years old) dies himself of this devil-virus – he so heroically had detected.

This Li Wenliang-story can’t be true, because with this PCR-test every second cat strolling around in the streets of Wuhan would have tested positive. This because PCR is not a test for “viruses unknown to us until this day”. Instead PCR – at least then (end of 2019) – was a test only for already known viruses! .

b) Wuhan “wet market”
Do you still remember how government and MSM tried to point us to the “Wuhan wet market” as a source of this murderous Sars-CoV2. A market, where the meat of wild animals was sold. Now we have lockdowns, masks, prohibition of gathering of more than x persons. But has there been a ban on selling meat of wild animals (deer, wild hogs, wild rabbits, wild ducks and so on)?. No!
Also they bombarded us with this propaganda that “bats” (sometimes eaten in China) were the source of Sars-Cov2. And while bats were immune this virus it would kill billions of us humans, as soon as it jumps over to the unprepared human species.
But by now government/MSM gave up this lie, like this lie with this Li Wenliang (did he ever exist?).

The video from James Corbett “WAS THERE FOREKNOWLEDGE OF THE PLANDEMIC – QUESTIONS FOR CORBETT” (Youtube deleted it – so no link I know. But you can download it directly from the Corbett site) really connected the dots for me!
In this video we learn that the US-Government organisations “USAID” and “PREDICT” were deeply involved with the Chinese “Wuhan lab” (English named: “Wuhan Institute of Virology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences”) that were the first to have ‘detected’ SARS-Cov-2. This Wuhan lab got millions of $$ from the US health organisations (which of course are under control of Big Pharma).

Possibly. Though Weber had at least a touch of something with the “Protestant work ethic” in some parts of the West. Though much watered down nowadays.

On the other hand, the Chinese may have a “stronger” built-in acceptance of totalitarian tendencies, See the “five relations” of Confucianism.

George Gao was at Event 201, where the “play” was announced (in the sense of American Football). Gao was quarterback. The playbook was the Rockefeller Foundation’s 2010 “Scenarios” (including Lock Step).

As soon as Gao returned to China, he would throw the pass: the cartoonish staged horror-comedy sickness-skit films, a limited, theatrical “lockdown” program for the Hubei province, and a couple papers he co-authored concerning “asymptomatic transmission” and the like.

The US Media would receive the pass, and run with it to the Endgame Endzone.

I’ve come to the strong suspicion that the highest elite of the US, China, Russia the EU and even Iran among others are all playing inside baseball on this covid hoax.

This covid scam certainly does benefit any totalitarian regime by justifying more government control.

Regarding Iran it was after the strategically timed murder of General Soleimani and the luke warm response of the Iranian government. And then the Iranian government’s all in approach on this covid scam that I began to suspect that the Mullah status quo was in bed with the Israelis. It’s very possible that Soleimani was actually murdered because he posed a threat to the corrupt Iranian status quo.

I agree. But allow me to take the point further:

Polictics: “Social relations of authority and power in collective decision-making.”

So, all politicians play the “want and use and expand authority and power” game.

To reiterate: It is first and foremost a power game. Played by politicians. For power.

That game is certainly not unique to totalitarian regimes. Democracies are filled with it too. Only thing is, most people do not want to believe it, because it has been sold to them as “their democracy.”

Lots of great points.

A few others as well:

– we were shown dead bodies in the street in China and reports of healthy young people dying instantly. When this ‘virus’ came to the west the average age of death was above life expectancy and deaths were accompanied by period of illness

– has anyone considered the reason China got rid of the virus is because it was never there in the first place

– the main assay recommended by the WHO to test for this virus is the E gene. As it’s present in all Asian viruses it’s impossible everyone in Wuhan were tested after and only found 300 a symptomatics. Also even with a very small FPR 300 positive PCR tests is again impossible.

– Remember in the first week of January the WHO and CDC visited Wuhan and found no evidence of human to human transmission

– the reason air travel wasn’t closed in January is because if they did that there would be no way for the fake virus to make it into any other country.

It’s been a psyop from the start.

Just heard the BBC radio news and, sure enough, the new strain of the virus is exponentially greater than anything we’ve ever seen before. The multiplicating R vector is germinating with the bio terrestrial filters to create a convoluted spiral within the inner bifurcation. This means that sight alone may be enough to transmit the disease.

We had a hysterical report from a hyperventilating nurse that all the hospitals of the Western hemisphere are so compacted with corpses that even a fly couldn’t get in.

The newly formed YCRTUHWRNB Unit (You Can Really Trust Us Honest We’re Really Not Bullshitters) is saying that this current situation is nothing compared to what will come. The whole of Britain, which has already died, will be revived with the vax but they will all die again.

Fear not, the backlash is on its way. It won’t be just the cash cows who will be involved, but the whole of society. This backlash is already beginning in pockets around Blighty and is the reason why police robots have to go in heavy handed and in numbers.
Quite soon it should dawn on police chiefs, and other career climbers trying to strip citizens of their rights and freedoms, that they are out numbered. They get along on the goodwill of the public but once that goodwill is squandered, it will be a different story.

The poll tax didn’t do too well because the people were out on the streets and taking the fight to Downing St, with the promise of more to come.

This won’t be an organised affair and so won’t be ended by arresting a few organisers. The police force may well lose all control of whole areas, undoing all their hard work in the past to obtain confidence and respect from the locals.
A confidence & respect they are now pissing up the wall by behaving like gov’t robots and ignoring all common sense, which most British people still have, and also ignoring the rule of law itself. Preferring to rely on enforcing gov’t diktats which are not law.

”So one just sits around and waits for their turn to be attacked by the state?”

The ‘attack’ began 12 months ago in the guise of a pandemic.

”The poll tax didn’t do too well because the people were out on the streets and taking the fight to Downing St, with the promise of more to come.”

The poll tax was a tax imposed in the UK, not the globe. And you’re right, the fight was taken to Downing St. What happened ? Yes, they dropped the Poll Tax. They called it Council Tax and nothing changed.

”Preferring to rely on enforcing gov’t diktats which are not law.”

The police have been government robots for decades. They love the uniform and power and are as well armed as the Nazi stormtroopers were. They don’t need a second invitation to get stuck in with tasers, , sprays, guns or whatever it takes. They’ll be given the power. A long, long time ago in Liverpool, dockers in Liverpool marched because they wanted a small wage rise to feed their families. Churchill had troops on standby to float down the Mersey with grenades and guns. That’s the same Churchill remembered as a ‘hero’. The gobshite.

”The more police at protests will eventually be met with more people”

I didn’t make an analogy i was being literal. Each protest or sign of a rising has been followed by new rules. It was September when Trafalgar Square was filled. It was October when we got the second wave.

Imagine this for a peaceful ‘fight’. Everyone in the UK finds that they can’t access the internet via their phones and PCs. Two days pass- no change. Imagine millions of addicts deprived of their fix by the people behind this game. That would be like giving them all a good kicking. That’s when the shit would happen. The sheep are without a pen to graze in and sleep. And the police will be waiting.

To decide your future please choose:

Option A: for the continued Covid CIA Psyop & Lockdowns.
OR
Option B: for the CIA backed fascist coup.

Selection A is made by staying home in fear.
Selection B is made by taking to the streets and burning down your democracy.

please make your choice now!

Is what we are experiencing democracy?
Gates and ferguson have so much planned for those who just sit around that they cannot discuss it without sniggering.
Conflict or resistance at least is inevitable as gov’t pushes on with its flawed science and control overreach. The people were already pissed before the covid scam gave them something else to thing about.
Now most will be out of a job or a small business. This isn’t going to end well.

Not only that, it will occur to the security and govt workers that soon they will not be needed– not in the role they perform now. I said to a customs official here in Canada on returning from Mexico “bet you didn’t sign up for this job ( handing out health forms ) ” he rolled his eyes and said no I didnt. People everywhere understand.

When people realise that they are being robbed of their livelihoods because of a cartel of rich shysters who want to make even more money, they will want answers. When they don’t get answers, they will want blood.
I guess those people who have been made to jump through hoops all day in order to stay employed only to have their job taken from them anyway will be twice as mad.

“The United Kingdom unleashed a new sort of “police” – faces masked, truncheons in their paws – to maul peaceful protesters for the crime of breathing.”

It sure did. Last night Birmingham police had nothing to do but break up traditional New Year’s Eve parties.

I share this link to an utterly amazing and awe-inspiring podcast which will lift your spirits and maybe even surprise with joy – an antidote to the heaviness of the last year.

Your words become suspect when from the outset you speak of “defending democracy” without qualifying that you understand it as having been used as a tool for mind control.

https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2020/12/31/vacc-d31.html

The vaccine salvation show hits some teething trouble:

“The first three weeks of coronavirus vaccination in the US have proven to be a debacle. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), less than one-fifth of the 11.4 million vaccine doses distributed have been administered.”

However, this does have an upside:

“At the current rate of about one million doses administered per week, it will take another 329 weeks, or more than six years, to administer the vaccine to everyone in the country. In addition, since the vaccines currently approved for use require two doses to be most effective, the time to properly vaccinate everyone in the country may be closer to double the above estimate.”

So, plenty of extended roller coaster fun in store. And the WSWS can look forward to 12 more years of cadaver wanking while telling everyone to stay under their beds.

I picked up on this too. In fact as you have linked to a published news source, The Daily Mail ran a similar piece a few days ago. Which wasn’t really a revelation; to vaccinate whole populations within 6-8 months was always fantasy.

This year needs another event to keep us all in place as 2+ years is impossible to sustain the current bullshit, nevermind what’s outlined by the fake socialists. Does this mean that stage 2 is activated, the more deadly strain? It’s Billy Gate’s thinking, out loud.

The timelines for this social engineering project will make it difficult to introduce “health passports”; so this pantomime needs new fear and anxiety pumped into it. A second more deadly strain will certainly be part of the strategy but there’s undoubtedly dozens more steps that will be implemented this year that I just haven’t considered yet. Are we to see tier 7/8/9 and what would they entail?

Well it’s a balancing act. Clearly they need oodles more fear. But there’s a thin line between terror and laughter. Or at least there ought to be. But one of the depressing things is that they can not only shovel the shit out but can even manufacture the public response I.e. they can create an impression of that response.

It’s easy enough. You don’t even need a script. There are plenty of criminally impressionable useful idiots who will oblige by screaming and running around. They might even come up with stuff you wouldn’t have thought about. Although you have to insert a disclaimer e.g. “Bobby isn’t quite right about alien chest busters but he’s not far off!”

Yes I daresay we’ll have multiplied tiers, new variants, possibly even a whole new virus. One Left blogger said something about how COVID “may not be the big one.” This is a reference to the messianic bug that will end capitalism. So if he thought COVID might not be the one, I reckon he’ll be up for any number of viral novelties and I’m sure the rulers will oblige.

“Are we to see tier 7/8/9 and what would they entail?”

…- Even better yet, howabout a multi-dimensional Tier system to cater for new variants 1, 2, 3, … n?… – Disease X?… – Variable and differential ‘case’ and ‘death’ rates?… – Variable vaccination statuses, with differential brands and generations of vaccine: – Vaxed/Not Vaxed with Pfizer gens’ 1, 2, 3, … n. Vaxed/Not Vaxed with Moderna gens’ 1, 2, 3, AstraZeneca, Sputnik V, etc., etc., etc.?…

…- How do you *feel* about the restrictions in your local Tier[18, ab, 37, pq, 61] zone? – Are they tighter or looser than those in the Tier[6, xy, 41, uv, 19] zone next-door, or the Tier[99, rm, 26, gt, 33] zones up north?… 😉
