An Open Letter to Joni Mitchell
(Since she decided we shouldn’t hear Both Sides Now)
Trevor in Timley
Dear Joni,
I just heard the news! You’re in the fight! And you’re on our team!
Mrs Trevor in Trimley and I are thrilled by your protest. It’s like the sixties all over again! Someone had to show those free expression types at Spotify what for. The last thing we want is to hear both sides now!
There really is only one side to this whole argument. Ours! Exceptional talents like us Joni, with so much love in our hearts, don’t need to listen to other opinions, we already know they’re rubbish. They must be, because we’re right! It’s very simple logic!!
Inspired by your oh so brave and well-considered stance, I have just this morning written to the supplier of the paper I use for my letters. My demand was simple. Stop allowing your paper to be used by any physician or scientist who might write opinions on it that run contrary to those of Joni Mitchell!
They either comply with your views Joni, or I’m looking for another paper supplier! Ker-pow!! That’ll show ‘em! It’s time to stop this rampant freedom of expression! That’s the virus we really need to stamp out!
To further that end Joni, and in your honour, I have decided to form a protest movement that I am hoping will grow from strength to strength across the world. I’ve called it, Protest Against People Exploring Things From A Variety Of Angles! Or PAPETFAVOA for short. (A memorable name which I think you’ll agree trips easily off the tongue after only a handful of attempts at saying it.)
The good news doesn’t end there! As we evidently both agree that the free expression of an individual must be denied if a majority of people disagree with it (as has always been the case in science!) I have taken the liberty of making some suggested changes to the lyrics of your beautiful song Both Sides Now and have retitled it One Side Now, which I think more aptly captures where we’re both coming from!
Be aware, my suggested version is shorter. Some of your original lyrics that once read like transcendent poetry are now frivolous to articulating a socially responsible message that serves the greater good, so I’ve cut them.
But here’s the big news I’m really hoping will make your day!
Mrs Trevor in Trimley and I invite you, Joni Mitchell, to our friend Dave’s garage/recording studio here in Trimley St Mary to record this new version with us, with ALL proceeds (after expenses: tea bags, digestives, milk, etc) going to PAPETFAVOA! (I can hold my own on a ukulele and Mrs Trevor in Trimley has always played an enthusiastic triangle.)
As for my suggested changes, you’ll notice that I didn’t alter the lyric, “I really don’t know love at all.” It seems more poignant now than ever.
One Side Now
By Joni Mitchell and Trevor in Trimley (based on Joni Mitchell’s Both Sides Now)
Rows and floes of angel hair
And vaccine castles in the air
And faces covered everywhere
I like COVID this way
But misinformers block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But they got in my way
I’ve looked at this from one side now
From my perspective to which all must bow
It’s just illusions they believe
They really don’t know this disease
But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I’ve changed
I turned away, there’s nothing gained
From listening anyway
I’ve looked at life from one side now
Learned nothing new, and still somehow
It’s my right to censor you
I really don’t know love at all
Looking forward to getting in the studio with you Joni!
Yours sincerely,
Trevor In Trimley

At the moment I have only two unoriginal thoughts:
a hero ain’t nothing but a sandwich and I’ve seen the needle and the damage done.
Brilliant. Thank you. But we shouldn’t leave out the other rock “icons”, like Neil Young
No Talkin’ In the “Free” World
(Sung to tune of “Rockin’ In the Free World”)
There’s covid on the street
Dead, white and blue
People droppin’ from their feet
People dyin’ in ther shoes
And there’s a warnin’ sign
on the road ahead
There’s a lot of people sayin’
lies to make us all dead
They feel like Satan
but I’ll censor them
To make people forget it
any way I can.
Stop your talkin’ in the “free” world
Stop your talkin’ in the “free” world
…..etc.
Hey Neil:
Head on out to the desert on your horse with no name
Where there ain’t no talk for to give you no pain.
And learn better grammar. Moron.
FYI, sorry for a pedantic nitpick to your rant, but “A Horse with No Name” was written by Dewey Bunnell, and was a 1971 hit for his band “America”.
For some reason, it was mistaken for a Neil Young song early on, and this misattribution metastasized and became a “settled” error in pop culture. Just letting you know. Rant on!
Send these communists back to …. shit where can send them?
Wait they already live in Israel do they not?
Right after Joni Mitchell made her pronouncement that people are spreading lies and people are dying, two of my musician friends wrote to me within an hour of each other requesting that I remove their names from my published albums because…. wait for it…. they don’t want to be associated with me IN ANY WAY.
Gasp! It was as if I’d dropped a literal bomb on their grannys’ houses.
I have another musician friend who also has now been sidelined by his former bandmates for similar reasons.
The only thing I can say with surety in this Covid age is that we have an extreme brainwashing situation in our societies — something I’ve known for a long time, but just didn’t realize how bad it really was….. until, well, Joni. Pretty sad how she sabotaged her own legacy.
Anyway, loved the essay, Trevor in Trimley. I needed to laugh, but also to cry…..
Nothing like rebellious musicians playing to vac and QR only crowd shouting freedum peace and love in their lyrics.
Thanks Trev. How bout this. ‘-)
“Woodstock”
I came upon a child of Pharma
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, where are you going
And this he told me…
I’m going on down to Wall Streets farm
I’m gonna join in a Pharma ‘n’ roll gang
I’m gonna camp out on the land
I’m gonna try and needle my soul free
We are PharmaDust
We are beholden
And we’ve got to get ourselves
Back to the graveyard
Then can I walk beside you
I have come here to feel the Pfizer Needle
And I feel to be a cog in something turning
Well maybe it is just the time of year
Or maybe it’s the time of Pharma
I don’t know who I am
But you know life is for learning
We are PharmaDust
We are beholden
And we’ve got to get ourselves
Back to the graveyard
By the time we got to PharmaStock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere there was fear and hysteria
And I dreamed I saw the Pfizzers
Riding shotgun in the sky
And they were turning into syringes
Above our nation
We are PharmaDust
Billion year old carbon
We are beholden
Caught in the Pharma devil’s bargain
And we’ve got to get ourselves
Out of the Pharma death garden
The WEF are partnering with Spotify, so now you know why the cryptocracy created the Joe Rogan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell psyop.
From the WEF’s own website which ties into their biometric, social credit, CBDC payment system, digital identity to access the www:
“SPOTIFY CONNECT
Extending the touchpoints and avenues by which users can stream music.
Key facts
Uniqueness
Value
Approach
Spotify Connect is one of more than 100 case studies identified as part of the World Economic Forum’s Digital Transformation of Industries initiative. An overview of the DTI program can be found here.“
“Services 50 million users, with over 12.5 million paying subscribers.”
Interpretation:
“Spies on 50 million users, with over 12.5 million abject morons as suckers.”
They only spy on 50 million? Geez what pipsqueaks. If I’d known that, I wouldn’t have bothered reading this article!
If you ain’t spying on at least 3 billion, I’ll take my business elsewhere! Maybe Amazon Prime.
Hi Paul. Yes. Exactly.
There’s no articles in magazines or newspapers explaining how the lockdowns, tyranny, looming technocracy, vaccines, social credit and biometric ID align specifically with the planned, global transition from a linear, production economy, where we once produced goods and services (which were highly profitable [and wasteful, polluting etc.,] to the Cryptocracy, to a licensing/rentier economy that is circular and digitally controlled by conglomerates, all owned and controlled by The Crown/Vatican and monitored (spied on) through intelligence agencies and the military.
This piece on YouTube is quite interesting: How we are being programmed to switch from a linear economy to a digital, circular economy. Ie; Klaus Schwab’s 4th Industrial Revolution.
Great video thanks.
You’re welcome. This one is quite good too.
2022 MASS PSYCHOSIS | Problem Reaction Solution.
It has footage of Fauci speaking at an event in October 2019 about introducing a universal flu (Covid-19) vaccine.
“Extending the touchpoints and avenues”
Well, if shoving your pop heros, their lyrics and music videos down other peoples throat in news media articles like this, including the comments sections, is not about ‘extending the touchpoints and avenues . The WEF and the tech companies do the game of dominating culture and over-shouting everything else better than you guys. That pop music went down this avenue is only inherent to it, the WEF services you to provide you bread and play,and their system of shoving it through everybodies throat, and to dominate the whole culture is just a step up compared what the pop masses have been doing themselves for decades.
Cult-ure. CULT.
Indoctrination, subliminal messaging and mass hypnosis extends to all facets of society.
As most of the artists spent time in laurel canyon in the 60s I wonder if they were told they would be needed in future, and thus by making a noise now are full filling their contract made many years ago ?
Every time these intel hacks put their names into the news cycle, their listens or views go up. IE, their royalties.
It directly affects their own income.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Intel Agency reps or handlers go straight to their management and offer a flat $$$ incentive for publicly speaking out on “issues” ie; intelligence created narratives, such as censoring vaccine “misinformation”.
Fans of these has-beens, are “triggered” to listen again to the old songs from their youth. That’s how mind control, hypnosis, nostalgia, behavioral science, drugs, alcohol and psychological operations work. Through unconscious, subliminal triggers.
+1
I preferred the Crosby, Stills and Nash version of Woodstock anyhow.
Like many others in my age group, I enjoyed Joni Mitchell’s music when I was quite young. Singer/songwriters come and go, especially after Sony Productions completely butchered the recording industry in the early 80’s. Alas…
The singer-songwriter has been plagued in recent years with health problems, including brain trauma, post-polio health issues and Morgellons syndrome
Joni said: ‘Morgellons is a slow, unpredictable killer – a terrorist disease: it will blow up one of your organs, leaving you in bed for a year’
If you look up recent pictures of Ms.Mitchell, she appears quite elderly and very ill. Everyone gets a chance to be nothing…
I learnt yesterday that Lukas Nelson , band leader of Promise of the Real is a young global leader. Neil Young cut two albums with them and toured with them as his backing band between 2015 and when touring stopped early 2020.
As a very big fan of Neil Young – and Joni Mitchell – this is more then disappointing. As much as I accept -regretfully – that people, even those we admire, might be taken in by this psyop, and I am prepared to give the apparently nearly-dead Joni Mitchell the benefit of the doubt, what the fuck is Neil thinking of… !!??
Love her work, but the contradictions in her appalling lack of perception about how science’s existence depends on open thorough debate defy an understanding or excuse for getting old. She needs more Acid.
Sorry, but the ability to sing, play the guitar and write three minute melodic poems does not instantly bestow individuals with profound perspectives and wisdom.
Pull your head in Joni.
Brilliant
Joni is a man.
He has a surprisingly similar facial structure to Deady Mercury.
Allegedly, both Joni and Neil had Polio as youths… and the whole world knows the vaccines drove Polio away, yeah? Bollocks! Polio, not a virus, was caused by DDT! “Hey pharma pharma, put away your DDT, now” – just go to the vaccine bus!
Joni smoked like a chimney
Polio was being defeated – and its damages were being cured subsequently – by pioneer doctors working BEFORE the advent of the vaccines. Using – wait for it! – big-dose vitamin C. See ‘Doctoryourself.com’ for the story.
“To save the spread of the virus, just go to the vaccine bus – ooh clot clot, ooh shot shot” (to the tune of Big Yellow Taxi)
She really meant it when she sang “It’s life’s illusions i recall.” Divorced from reality, long ago.
She has become one of the hopelessly oppressed cowards she used to sing of.
“Here in good old “God save America”
The home of the brave and the free
We are all hopelessly oppressed cowards
Of some duality
Of restless multiplicity
(Oh, say can you see)”
During the France. May-Jun e ’68 mass strike Prez de Gaulle fled to the French army barracks in Germany to find out if the troops were still loyal – in case he needed them to force everyone back to Work…
Where can Trudeau ‘do a Trudeau’, flee to ? Australia’s Victorian Penal Colony ?
Not sure how that’s related to Joni Mitchel, 😀 Maybe Trudeau can go join his fellow student from his WEF “young leaders” days, Jacinda?
If he flees to NZ they’ll probably end up fighting over who has the most man-dates. Is it Jacinda R-den or R-don ? Either way she’s a lousy GMO.
Jacinda Ardern is a pre-op transexual. Note the bulge.
And and, he (Jacinda) straight up (from abuse and shit relating to his father) tries to espouse the EXACT same indoctrination shit associated with Mormon rape. The EXACT same shit as in “freemason” institution.
That’s why Gilly and Jacinda are so associated, coz they’re both faggots.
that’s a really large tampon
it is not a mistake
it is

it’d be just fine if someone gave fudeau a ticket to the far side of the moon. Or not – it’d also be nice to see him dragged through the streets and hung from a lamp post somewhere, as traitors deserve
No thanks Les, we already have a surfeit of TURDS here.

Who is this Joni bitch anyway?
War protestor from the 60’s. (from California). Sang at Woodstock. Biggest of the biggest. Made all her money off the the anti-government/anti-war protests. Without the Vietnam War she would have been nothing. Ironic. Isn’t it.
She embarrasses me.
Thanks. Never heard of her. In Germany they’ve just appointed Little Greta’s Handler and Wire Puller, Jennifer Morgan as Minister For Global Warming And Saving The Polar Bears.

Joni Mitchell’s ties to the Laurel Canyon gang always made me wonder about her real allegiances. Here she has proven herself by her actions, that she is and has been nothing more than a controlled agent of the CIA created 60’s counter culture movement that was created to subvert the real anti-war movement of the day.
Ditto for Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young etc.
Yep I have 2 old mates who were part of that culture…both famous…both now holed up terrified of the virus and vax to the max…terrified to go anywhere or see anyone in caste they catch the magical virus….

I’m in my eighties now, and I’ve been giving the scorn-laden finger to the ‘viruses’ right from the start of the scam. Never bothered me before 2020, so why would I worry now. Right life-regimen, plus bagsful of vitaminC means absolutely no worries. Scoff the lying propagandist scum back into their ratholes! Easy!
Did the CIA take time machines many thousands of years back to get all the world’s indigenous people (aside from those living in the permanently iced over lands of the far north) to use psychedelic plants?

I don’t understand. She looked at clouds, love and life from both sides now. There is nothing in there about logic, fairness or freedom of speech. She never said she looked at those things from both sides either then or now!
How ridiculous you Brits can get. Leave the poor old tired Laurel Canyon agent alone. Let her enjoy her wealth in peace. For God’s sakes.
“the poor old tired Laurel Canyon agent”
I saw what you did there! Neat!
If she wanted to be left alone she should have kept her mouth shut in public. To me, it just seems a desperate attempt to stay relevant, like most celebrities today. It probably sells music too, after all, those who agree with her side of the argument have probably already downloaded a few tunes of hers they didn’t have yet.
In the case of Neil, Blackrock owns his catalog. I don’t know who ultimately own Joni’s, but it is silly not to see the financial incentives for joining the Narrative TM and doing its bidding.
In my view most musicians are really stupid.
Of course there are exceptions, for example Sara Bennett and a view others.
I poo on Joni Mitchell and Neil Young as middle class wank.
If I want rock music I will play fucking Motorhead.
Both of the former are intelligence assets, witting or unwitting. The idea that these corporate products were revolutionary in 1970 is just ridiculous.
Piss on Covid hysteria.
Zappa!
It wasn’t too long ago that we were told Mitchell was at death’s door & was barely functional. I do wonder how much she knows about either the fake pandemic or what her music is being used for.
I’m inclined to wonder the same thing. I haven’t actually seen any footage of Joni saying anything about this. I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt until I do.
I still feel that Joni is the greatest songwriter of the 20th century, and while I’ve accepted that many of my 60s heroes have not exactly risen to the moment we’re in – and many have really bit the big one – I’m not casting Joni in with them until I see some proof.
I’d like to think that the woman who saw through the BS of the music biz years ago would be in the ranks of Van Morrison, Clapton, Dylan and the few other 60s icons who appear to have retained their courage and clarity in this moment. Hey, I can hope…:)
They were all absolutely awful people. Commodities designed to take the potential for revolutionary change down the garden path. The idea that these people were heroes is just baffling. Boomers were led to believe that consuming the corporate-generated entertainment products of the period constituted some form of rebellion against the system. Just ridiculous. Joni Mitchell saw through the BS? I saw an interview with her years ago where she talked about how important it was for her to enjoy vacationing in Hawaii while she was young. Very deep stuff.
Boomers werent led to believe anything. Boomers desires and wants drove the consumer system. So what if it made a few corporations RICH. Boomers didnt need to be encouraged. God invented credit cards for them just so they could indulge.
And now they are being told to feel guilty if they squander their “kids inheritance” to maintain their consuming, spendthrift lifestyles…
Kick the kids out of the nest ! They have no divine claim on what the boomers accumulated.
Lets hear it for The Boomers’
“Six white boomers, snow whitey boomers…..” (Rolf Harriss)
Of course boomers needed to be encouraged. They were subjected to the propaganda of television from birth. Do you think that was done just for fun? The work of Bernays and Ivy Lee and others reached a previously unimagined level in the period of boomer teevee indoctrination.
Absolutely right Clyde. I’ve never heard anyone else say it before. There was never a cult that wasn’t cultivated. Except for a few songs by Dylan and Mitchell, but more by Ochs and Paxton and The Last Poets it was one big self-righteous hedonistic cult. I’m not at all surprised Young came out against Joe Rogan either. I’m surprised he didn’t just lay low and enjoy his filthy lucre like all the rest are doing if they’re still kicking. All those major cult stars of the 60’s were on the take. It was a very hedonistic and idolatrous time when a vocabulary of about ten words and phrases got you in. Remember?: Heavy, man; Far out, look at the pigs, He’s a head, man. She’s my old lady/my old man, He’s ballin’ his chick, s/he laid a lid on me, man. etc. The 50’s didn’t start til Kerouac’s On the Road in ’57 and the 60’s didn’t start til Golden Gate Park and Haight Ashbury in ’67. Woodstock, except for a few colorful performances (Country Joe, Canned Heat, Hendrix) was a lot of loud acting out and pandering to the cult – which is what almost all pop music still is. Don’t believe me? Watch the Superbowl halftime show tomorrow. I’ve been a lifelong folkie from before long hair, even before early Dylan. It always amazed me back then how much my generation aped these airheads. The ’60’s was a short lived middle class mock rebellion that never reached down to the masses of poor, to those over 30, to the “unhip.” When I saw the Kent state murders, the murder of Fred Hampton and the Attica repression, I knew the 60’s were over and the same bastards were still in charge who’d always been in charge. The ’60’s were an educational passing spectacle for some individuals like me but so little good came of those years precisely because the .01% and the well paid high priesthood of Dylan and Joni and Pearl and Young were steering it into the wilderness.
So you missed out then ? And are still pissed off ?
Myself, i blame The British Invasion led by a group that couldnt spell Beetles properly, and then those decadent Rolling Stones playing the Devil’s Music (Negro blues) followed, spreading sympathy for the devil. Things have never been the same since.
Are you channeling J. Edgar Hoover or are your comments a joke?
That entire music movement and the promoted bands pushed onto the public – where girls were paid to scream and faint – were a psyop by the governments, intel agencies and music labels. These governments have extensive behavioral science and research departments, who through intel agencies and arms length corporations such as film, media, music, tv, manipulate human beings, using artificial, faux culture and faux news.
The intel agencies were supplying the Jones generation and Boomers, a token rebellious image to embrace, to replace action and real revolution.
Millions of people were (and still are) being mind controlled by their governments and behavioral scientists through the media and “entertainment”.
The garbage music poured into radios and TVs, during the 60’s and 70’s was a joint British and American intelligence operation.
TV is a brainwashing device (along with radio) that literally changes brainwaves to a passive, receptive, unquestioning state.
When I read your comments, they are so absurd they come across as bad satire.
I did just that last weekend. My son and his wife gave me the palm and rudely told me to stop talking. They and my daughter’s family were visiting for the weekend. My son and his wife are vaccinated and thinking the same for their kids who are 6 and 8. They did it so they could travel freely. In my mind, this could not get more selfish. Foregoing the health of their children so they can travel freely is how I interpret it. My son’s mother-in-law is a retired airline exec with No. 2 standby status which is a big deal. They have been refusing to view any of the information I have dug up over the last 2 years. I threw them out of my house and promised to cut them out the inheritance if they vaccinate the kids. Not kidding. Life is about genetics and promoting your off spring. Period. The evidence is piling up that vaccination leads to sterilization. If I want to follow the laws of nature and take care of my descendants as nature wants me to, then I need to put my investment in my daughter’s kids. She fully intends to fight against their vaccination. It is simple biology. Somewhere out there there is a link to a Gary Larsen Farside cartoon on the purpose of life……….. My son is about to learn the hard way. At this point, I would rather invest in a colony of house cats. Instead, It will go to my daughter’s kids.
Good for you! If I was in your position I’d do the same.
Wow. You are hitting all the psychological operations and warfare in one fell swoop by contradicting yourself and denying the existence of the psyops simultaneously.
Why shouldn’t they preserve their wealth for future generations *IF* consuming is a con? All they have is their properties (LAND), which is the real aim of the Covid-Climate Fraud Operation, ie: Agenda 21-The Great Reset. They want the boomers’ land. Their houses. The cryptocracy want all the land in the world and to take away all private property and possessions from the 99%.
Rolf Harris. You mean the same Rolf Harris that’s a child molester?
Boomers were psyopped and brainwashed since birth, Mr. Mason-Government Agent.
Nobody wants more consumer items! Besides the celebrities and billionaires who can’t own enough yachts, private jets, diamonds, ten thousand dollar suits, luxury cars, and million dollar art-filled, properties.
Boomers, who were never wealthy, were conned into consuming all their income through branding, marketing, advertising, subliminal messaging and television, being PROGRAMMED to consume insatiably, to drink and drug themselves, and to think of themselves as consumers, or taxpayers, or employees, or employers, or voters, instead of free, independent individuals.
A dreadful whinnying, piss-stinking provincial piano teacher, full of disingenuous bullcrap? Perhaps….
Her music really did make working class kids like me want to riot and puke simultaneously.
Rikki Farr, my dad’s old pal summed it up at the Isle of Wight Festival.
He truly was an ultra charlatan!
OMG. I hate her music. HATE IT. All that music from that era (bar some Hendrix) gives me a visceral reaction of repulsion and revulsion.
Despise all of that folk shit AND nearly all rock and pop from the 60’s and 70’s. Absolute garbage from Laurel Canyon, handled operatives.
Thank you. I was anxiously awaiting your opinion.
As I was waiting with bated breath for your opinion, or partner trolls/identities, on my opinions.
Hang on. There were the so called ‘Kraut Rock’ bands starting off in the mid-seventies. Let’s not discount Can, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream and the like.
I’m not discounting them or any part of the music industry.
All music has to be published and copyrighted by music labels, ie; corporations, ie; legal fictions.
Sooner or later, these smaller labels are consumed by larger ones, which are controlled and owned by the merchant banking cartel, as are all large corporations, including incorporated municipalities known as “governments”.
I think of electronic music, punk, new wave, hip hop, rap etc., and even current EDM as alternative options (niches within counter culture) for meaningless rebellion (supposedly against authority but usually resulting in drinking and drugs [self harm] and then a manufactured, culture separation gap from the home or parents) and narcissistic, pointless self-indulgence. Music and drugs leads to partying, promiscuity, and either university, or blue collar jobs and both of those steps involve moving out of the family home/unit and away from the parents to become separate, individual consumers, voters, taxpayers and employees in the service, power, wealth and perpetuation of the state.
Teens attempting to fit into new, peer social groups, or cliques (defined through their music choices or preferences) based on archetypes created for them by behavioral scientists, psychologists and the intelligence community.
it is from chem trails.and seems good that she paid it attention.
Like most of them, they get the call to participate, many pop rock acts declined advertising the vaccine whilst others did.Maybe they have more videos & debt etc on then.?
Called that favor in or else.
Some of them haven’t got as much money as people think and they are not that bright with what is going on.

Keep pumping that propaganda, champ!
Propaganda is simply figuring out the most successful way to get a message out to the largest number of people. The media do it all the time. So it’s good to have counter propaganda.

You can stand up for Neil and Joni as victims of their own traumatic polio haunted upbringing. But by Christ is Wiki milking the connection for all it’s worth!:
“On January 28, Young’s longtime friend and fellow polio survivor Joni Mitchell also demanded that her music be removed from Spotify in solidarity with “Neil Young and the global scientific and medical communities on this issue“. NHS doctor and author Rachel Clarke tweeted: “Both Neil Young & Joni Mitchell… know painfully well how much harm, suffering & avoidable death anti-vaxxers can cause.””
“In NYC in the 1940’s Polio did not have a chance with George and his friends. BECAUSE THEY SWAM IN RAW SEWAGE. THEY WERE TEMPERED IN RAW SHIT.”
Interesting comparison between you and Carlin. He took in raw sewage, while you emit it. Remarkable.

I’ve looked at Klaus from both sides now
from fear and feign and holy cow
It’s Klaus’ illusions I recall
I really din’t know Klausssss
at all
Norton, McAfee, and Bitdefender
He moved on then to Pfiser genders
As every scarey threat makes me reel
I’ve looked at Bill that way
But now it’s just another show
You leave ’em cringing when you go
If you don’t care then, let them know
You’ll be at Epstein’s Isleee
I’ve looked at Bill from both sides now
from kill and take, and pedopile
It’s Billl’s preversions, I recall
I really don’t know Billll
at all
Tears and fears and Pizza proud
To say “I keel you” right out loud
Drink your blood, at peak Adrenechrome
I’ve looked at kids that way
But my boy Hunter is acting strange
30mill. for crack-pipes and he’s still got no change
Come on Joni, write me another song
it might help you, with that mange
I’ve looked at the Senate and the President-see
I’m still just waiting for, my anti-christ acendency
You know I lust you Ba’al, my unholy lord
Don’t make me waaaaaait
to long
The sort of protesters the Fraud loves…
https://dumptheguardian.com/business/2022/feb/12/uk-cost-of-living-protesters-demonstrate-peoples-assembly
Not at all QAnon-following, social media-believing, climate change-denying, transphobic, racist, anti-semitic, misogynistic, Confederate flag-waving, democracy-hating, Putin-bot truckers!
Remember the WEF loves the “citizens’ assembly” model (they can stuff them full of assets and dupes) and the name ‘People’s Assembly’ shows they haven’t got any more idea than to re-run Blairism where everything was called the ‘People’s something-or-other’. And as for the trade unions, they’ve shown throughout the whole convid scam just how completely controlled they are.
We all know that UBI is going to be the magic solution they start pushing.
I am a “Liberal”.
The root coming from the Latin: liberalis “noble, gracious, munificent, generous,” literally “of freedom, pertaining to or befitting a free person,”; from liber “free, unrestricted, unimpeded; unbridled, unchecked, licentious.”
And I support these protesters & demonstrations.
I am absolutely ashamed of what most other “Liberals” have become.
Interestingly I have basely been labeled a “right-wing extremist” for not following & bowing to “leftist” groupthink.
I have also basely been labeled a “left-wing radical hippie” for not following & bowing to “rightist” groupthink.
True independence & individuality are largely DEAD.
It’s just divide and conquer.
People are so unbelievably and wilfully ignorant. If someone could show them, the left and the right are the very same banking/merchant/war/energy/PhRMA cartel, what would that mean in terms of their political beliefs and self identification?
These “voters” are locked into a mind control, oppositional paradigm, where they chase their own tails, before self euthanizing.
With record protests raging world-wide against undemocratic covid mandates and the looming threat of kenetic war with Russia via proxy Ukraine, here at off-g we can take a break this weekend and get back to familiar territory discussing left/right paradigms and talking about sell-out celebrities. Once again great timing off-g.
The mandates are/were going to end anyway. Covid ran its preordained pathway. Money transfer complete. The top 0.01% won the prize. Vacuumed from the 99.99%. Time to move on to grasses (or policies) greener.
Ukraine wouldn’t be a proxy war. Naive to think so, in the extreme.
That would be similar to thinking Rostov were in the Ukraine. Or that reading a hastily plane-prepared script to a foreign minister constitutes diplomacy. Or that wearing a fur coat and hat on Red Square turns you into Mrs Thatcher.
And aren’t all wars kinetic [sic]?
Mitchell is duped or mad. Anyone who had read McGowan or followed her in alt health circles for years knows she is not solid foundation to lay anything on.
I haven’t seen or heard that Spotify along with other streaming music services like iTunes Music, Amazon Music, Pandora… is a part of the fourth Industrial Revolution i.e. You own nothing and you’ll be happy. I don’t subscribe to any of those services as I still buy CDs and vinyls.
What? They ALL (not just Spotify) are part of the WEF’s move to limit and censor, track and trace, with a digital identity (Vaxx passport/biometric ID/CBDC/payment system/social credit/carbon credit).
Neil Young in 1985:
But Neil is our saint! Quick! Damage control!:
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/neil-young-homophobic-aids/
“almost certainly regrets”?
And as for being one of GWB’s most vocal critics, don’t forget Neil also wrote that impeccably researched ode to Flight 93, “Let’s Roll”:
Let’s roll for truth! Yeah, take it away, Neil!
Go away, Neil.
I don’t even know who you are, thank heaven, but you are clearly not to be trusted.
Note also that “horrific statement” wasn’t Neil’s expression.
And when do you think we’ll hear about Joe Rogan “almost certainly regretting HIS horrific statements”?
And I’ll bet that if Neil did a complete turnaround and said covid is shit, the entire media would be unloading any amount of his “horrific statements” with no “almost certain” regrets at all!
The point is not what these hacks are saying, said or even doing. We know it’s all hypocrisy and a psyop.
The important part of the psyop is to first, create the false idols, by promoting and pushing these people onto the public through the media (Tavistock/CIA) in that 60’s 70’s era. And then vilifying or using these agents later, in a false scapegoat/effigy/witch-hunt psychodrama.
These psyops enable governments to stay in power by deliberately channeling the public’s anger and frustration onto an effigy or false idol.
It’s also a shell game. The more the media (intel agency narratives) distract the public using psyops, ie; manufactured news narratives, the more confused and divided the masses become, thereby preventing them from potentially organizing to take down their oppressors, murderers and enslavers.
This process dissipates public anger at the obvious corruption, racketeering, and tyranny by illegitimate and unlawful governments. It additionally creates a pretext or faux precedents, to enact censorship laws and eradicate free speech under the upcoming social credit – digital – biometric ID, to access and use the internet.
Partly advancing for the eco agenda (especially veganism) and partly a mockery of what they think about your claim to have “rights”:
https://www.breezyscroll.com/world/basel-stadt-a-swizz-region-is-trying-to-pass-law-for-primates-to-enjoy-human-rights/
More fundamentally though, it’s the elite’s view of the world derived from their Gnosticism – all life is just meat sacks with no essential nature and all as worthless as each other.
Anyone silly enough to think there’s any real concern about the treatment of primates here needs to remember the same people behind this have inflicted horrendous suffering in their Rockefeller labs on primates and the rest of creation. Things like this are just an attempt to leverage people’s guilt
BTW, since this kind of article always prompts oodles of off-topic comments, let me add one of my own.
For some time now – at least since the beginning of 2022 – I’ve noticed there are no comments from “Gezzah Potts.” I always looked forward to his posts. I know he had fallen on hard times because of the Dan Andrews inspired madness around Melbourne.
Do any of his fellow Australians have any information on his well-being? Or has he changed his moniker and still posts under a different name?
⬆︎
Thanks for mentioning it. It’s so easy just to forget… I hope somebody can trace him. A good soul.
Also off-topic: Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth have just announced that they think “We can handle the truth about 911″…
After a whole generation – which is plenty of time to forget the inconvenient details, of course we can handle it, because it is already mouldering history and the new viral threats are occupying all our attention.
But the question is, why has everybody waited until it is ‘safe’ to mention it?
That Thirty-Year Rule, to be found elsewhere in politics, suddenly makes a lot of sense.
It isn’t to ‘protect’ the sensibilities of living participants in some tragedy or other.
It is to make people forget.
Back on topic: We really have to be prepared to strictly ignore celebrity airheads with clear talent in one or two areas, but with staggering gaps in general intelligence.
Whoever even thought of finding out what Joni Mitchell thinks about a scientific matter ought to be quarantined for life.
I mean, why not ask a scientist…???
Well, if the only way for a scientist to get their next grant applications waved through is to remain ‘on-message’, you might not get the truth from them either!
Best bet is to find recently-retired scientists. They don’t need any more grants, so they are free to tell the truth. Those are the go-to people in the climate debate, after all…..along with private sector engineers with expertise in relevant aspects of the climate debate….
Yep. The retired ones are probably our best bet.
They may, however, have sworn lifelong allegiance to some inner circle of their main funders, so even that is a dicey proposition…
Our diplomatic, gentlemanly and polite options do seem to be running out…
After all, we are dealing here with thugs in CEO clothing…
That seems to be the case. It could be that they are intimately familiar with the power of big pharma and simply want to survive so they can enjoy their grand kids.
Fauci is an exception. What is his motive? He’s got all the money he needs. Why doe he keep pushing the evil narratives when he could easily drop out of the game and retire?
Steve Kirsch published a video of an interview on Rumble with a funeral home director about the unusual number of blood clots in her “clients” which were making embalming difficult. The focus was on the high percentage. It was totally anecdotal but still significant.
What I found interesting was her comment about why our government is so adamant about getting everyone vaccinated when it is clear there is no benefit and now we have all of these terrible side effects from clotting.
She speculated that there is another underlying and important reason to get the vaccine that they are not telling us about.
I have found my mind wandering in that direction as well while trying to make sense out of why such an evil thing is being promoted by so many people in positions of power.
https://rumble.com/vuqk1w-explosive-embalmer-reveals-93-of-cases-have-deadly-clots-caused-by-the-vax.html
Better put that in the “Be careful what you ask for” folder. Otherwise, along comes Fauci: “You called for a scientist?”
Yep. Of course I meant a real one…
“Everybody” has not waited until it is safe. I bought “Crossing the Rubicon” the month it was released to the public. There were “inconvenient details” put into the public almost from the outset. Even CBC in Canada had mainstream journalists accidentally lifting the edges of the tent from the outset. The 9/11 psy-op had significant failings from the start, but like any large-scale complex military operation, but it worked well enough. It’s clear that the old guys who planned it did not understand the significance of the internet, which is why they shored that aspect up considerably for Covid. Think of the development of tanks, aircraft, radars and jets from 1939 just to the Korean War atrocity. Leaps and bounds. It is obvious from the transcripts of Event 201 that they knew the dominance of the digital communicatrion sphere was absolutely crucial to the success of the operation.
Gezzah still posts occasionally over on MoneyCircus’s Discord channel. Last time he posted was on the 7th Feb. Here’s a link where I searched for his comments:
https://discord.com/channels/885056513146777610/885056513146777613/940133735746121739
Thanks.
I sort of noticed the same thing TBH. I always liked his moniker, and for some reason, I felt like I could understand what sort of guy he was. Good to know he’s ok.
I also wonder about Gezzah. I hope he is OK. Miss his elegant posts.
Having just wandered through the tar pits of twitter, it’s intensely depressing to note the duped Left who are now seemingly all that’s left. And the notion of a dividing line between them and the old concept of the Right is complete manufactured fantasy. The Left/Right paradigm is an indication of a now obsolete species – indeed a class in itself who correspond to the old petit bourgeois, although it has become unwise to dabble in that terminology now, so corrupt is it. The true underlying mentality revealed by these tweets is of a dismal and excruciating babyish gullibility before the media posing in a fraudulent “sophisticated” tone which itself is simply absorbed from that same venal media. These are the real Walking Dead.
⬆︎
The Walking Dead. Right on George, it sure fits them.
Utter nonsense. Covid is entirely the manifestation of private, corporate dominance of the political and economic spheres. That is as far right as it gets. The state apparatus during Covid has been completely subservient to supranational corporate demands. This notion that the left/right paradigm has been rendered meaningless is the product of the right-wing apparatus of media, think-tanks and captured academia. Just because the right-wing apparatus supplanted actual left-wing discourse with identitarian rubbish it does not in any way alter the real dynamic, which is that of speculative-finance, or late-stage capitalism, recreating itself even as it collapses.
Except that the “Right” have now, if you must, infiltrated the “Left” and clearly did so long ago. This “Left” have been the main engine of covid every step of the way.
That simply isn’t true. The engine of Covid is the nexus of the intelligence agencies, speculative financiers and a lower tier of compliant politicians. The only “left” person at Event 201 was Gao, the Chinese whatever he is who sounded the Covid alarm. Unions at least fought some of the kooky socio-economic restrictions. My employer wanted all heathens who refused to be vaccinated to be fired. The Police Union said “try it”. They didn’t try it.
Honestly, have you been asleep the last two years? The moment covid struck in spring 2020, every single Left organisation was not only with the programme but even more vehement about the lockdowns, masking, distancing, vaccine etc. And I should know. I used to follow them and was astonished when they pulled that coordinated move. Yes they were infiltrated or preempted by intelligence agencies but there were also vast hordes of them who were dupes and lapping it all up. From what I’ve seen, they continue to do so. Although I suspect some are waking up and lapsing into an embarrassed silence.
you’re both right, stop arguing. the apparent contradiction can be resolved by consistent use of the term “fake left”, or at least quotation marks around the term “left”, to make clear the distinction between the real left of 50 or 100 years ago, and the current captured, elite-funded apparatus of vile, self-serving, middle-class-liberal idiots, poseurs, and agents.
I have often said that the covid phenomenon is like the 9/11 phenomenon times a thousand. With 9/11 Noam Chomsky amongst others revealed himself as a corporate stooge. After which, the very thought of “going back” and aligning myself with him made me want to vomit. To do that would be like trying to line up with a bunch of kids who were waiting for Santa. You can’t go back to that naiveté.
And I see that these Lefts who so eagerly shilled it up for covid and trashed the real opposition are now quite happily lining up to take the permitted dissident line re: Russia and the Ukraine. Indeed, a certain Miss Johnstone is even making noises about CIA involvement. Her title is: “Proposal: Just Run All Western News Media Directly Out Of CIA Headquarters” But she doesn’t mean covid!
Well I just can’t do it! I can’t go back and stand in line with this Left that makes all the old noises but doesn’t apply them to covid! Here’s the biggest monstrosity in your own backyard … and you are desperate to avoid it!
Saying you’re left doesn’t mean a thing, real lefties *acts* accordingly.
⬆︎
You’re supposed to engage in criticism and self-criticism, and work from there. Ranting about people who have been subjected to fifty years of cutting-edge, sophisticated and all-encompassing propaganda when the problem remains private interests amassing endlessly greater control of the socio-economic realm is pretty silly.
And the reason why private interests are amassing endlessly greater control of the socio-economic realm is precisely because people have been subjected to fifty years of cutting-edge, sophisticated and all-encompassing propaganda. And covid is the cream of that process. The “Left” think covid is the revolution.
Who, precisely, is this “Left” you keep harping about? Larry Fink of Blackrock? How about Bancel at Moderna? NATO? Jamie Dimon and the rest of the bankers? Get a grip.
This “Left” are every single formal “Left” organisation. The World Socialist Website, Counterpunch, Jacobin, Caitlin Johnstone etc. I have never seen anyone on the official Left even query the covid tale. Indeed, they have done quite the opposite – they have insisted that covid is even more deadly than the mainstream say and bellowing about “Far Right Denialists. The only Left ones to call it out have been isolated renegades like Phil Greaves and John Steppling and only the former understands how thoroughly the Left have been utterly corrupted.
I prefer Dr. Robert Malone’s summation better. Mass Formation Psychosis. The MSM was so pissed when he first threw this one out there. They went crazy. They apparently had been steaming already about the first label Covidian Cult because that was their way of retaliating against Malone’s summation because they started calling the antivaxx movement a cult.
BRAVO!! ENCORE! ENCORE!
On one of her early live albums, Joni Mitchell stated her frustration with being asked to keep singing the same songs over and over at venues by comparing it to someone asking Vincent Van Gogh to paint “Starry Night” over and over again.
I relate this seemingly insignificant bit of trivia because it’s actually extremely significant. Besides revealing her arrogance comparing herself to one of the greatest painters who ever lived, it shows her utter lack of perspective.
Singing a song is not comparable to painting a picture but rather to seeing the painting. Not singing a song would be comparable to covering the painting whenever people enter the museum where it hangs.
A song requires a listener even more than a painting requires a viewer to complete its existence.
It may be unfortunate, but art is more dependent upon an audience than almost any other human activity.
Composing the song would have been much closer, but then the technique and inspiration required to ‘compose a song’ these days is minimal.
A song today has to sound familiar and even predictable.
Only the text may show originality, and how often does that happen…?
The album was Miles of Aisles and there’s an audience member who shouts out, “Joni, you have more class than Mick Jagger, Richard Nixon, or Gomer Pyle-combined!” whilst Joni laughs in … embarassment? Whatever it was she was sure to keep it in.
Bet she does not complain about the royalty checks……
Having to take them to the bank over and over again…….
The best thing about Joni Mitchell?
Mitchell was born on November 7, 1943.
As per the SSA, the cohort life expectancy for those born in the mid-40’s was about 74 yrs.
1943+74 = 2017.
Hence, Mitchell is now 4-5 years past her expiration date.
She is left living merely on borrowed time.
(perhaps likely the reason for her seeming gripping fear of death).
Whereas some entertainment is timeless, Mitchell’s is largely fadish & easily fleeting.
Goodnight sweet “princess”!
That’s an average, which is not the same as the age at which most people die. In fact it could be an age at which no one at all actually dies. In fact, sadly, once Joni made 70, her average life expectancy became another 17 years! 😱
And scorpios don’t die easily….smile. She is just acting out her transits with a touch of karma…
I was number 64 in the last year of the Vietnam draft lottery. It was also my high school football jersey number. Seared into my memory. We who were in the lottery paid attention closely to what was going on. I watched the drawing in a dorm TV room that was packed with male students. I was not happy. I had watched two previous lotteries for older brothers who’s numbers were in the 300’s. Not fair. Fortunately, the draft had ended. Anti war music was important. It gave us a sense of hope that the war would end before it was “our time” to go. Even though she and other musicians “fought for me”, she still embarrasses me. The chemical residues left over from everything baby boomers were exposed to (before the EPA was created in 1970) most likely contributed to her present condition. But still…….. My brother-in-law is her age and is not doing well either. Advanced brain deterioration has become a burden on my sister. We have paid a price as a generation through chemical experimentation and are now showing the fruits of that experimentation. Not really that different than the clot shots. Oligarchs are staying just ahead of the curve, I guess. Nothing has changed.

“The below is just one of the things that the war racketeer corporate fascist eugenicist oligarch mobster psycho Nazis consider to be Billy Cull Juice misinformation and want disappeared.”
The psycho Nazis consider there are far too many of us untermenschen useless eaters. They want many of us culled.
The Scamdemic ‘Big Lie’, the Big Cull, Great Ripoff, and Grand Enslavement are crimes against WE THE PEOPLE (Humanity).

You’re engaged in propaganda, there, champ. You’re using catch-phrases and jargon over, and over again. You continue to use italics and quotation marks, and bolding as you post the same things, every day. What’s up with that?
You first, David, you first. (Thanks for obliging…)
What’s left of you five years after your 2017 demise looks exactly the same as I will look five years after mine.
Get over it.
Even if a demon wanted to grant you immortality – a possibility which I seriously doubt, given your limited intelligence, it would be on his terms only, and you would belong to the same slave class to which you wanted to consign mankind in general during your wretched life.
What a waste.
Prepping for the spread of tele-education by presenting it as a right to protect the vulnerable:
https://dumptheguardian.com/education/2022/feb/12/dfe-is-criminalising-parents-in-england-say-families-still-shielding-from-covid
The story is also designed to present the spread of home-schooling as a reaction to covid measures not going far enough rather than the opposite – or the 101 other obnoxious elements of modern education that the Fraud has done nothing but support.
That’s always been the rap. The public are right behind the lockdowns! The public are desperate for mask mandates to last till the end of time! The public demand vaxxes every hour! The public demand a reduction in population so there is only one person to every continent!
Of course “the public” support the measures. A massive, sophisticated, highly complex psychological operation was launched against them. They have been terrified. What response did you think would arise in the corporate-controlled information environment?
I was giving the media vision I.e. that the public want the draconian measures, that the protesters are always some “Right Wing minority”.
The first part is entirely true. The public do want the draconian measures because they have been terrified. The protesters where I live are to a very large extent a “right wing minority”. Covid is occurring at a point in history where the traditional bourgeois conservatives are being oppressed as a new model of finance-capitalism that no longer depends on a working class is emerging. Thus folks who are right-wing and generally supportive of capitalist power are revolting as they experience the force of the state in a way that used to be reserved for the working class and the precariate.
In my own workplace the active opponents to Covid policy consisted by and large of fundamentalist Christians and libertarians. Rejection of Covid policies was the only thing we had in common, and I was a minority within a minority.
One of the most lucid writers on Coronacircus and as far as I know inventor of this perfect descriptor made his first post in nine months. Gold

Oh thank you for this Mr and Mrs Trevor from Trimley. While I respect everyone’s right to agree, disagree, mask, breathe, inject, reject, walk the wrong way in a supermarket, I loved your wonderful letter.
I’m sure Ms. Mitchell’s agents are arranging flights and booking proper lodgings in Trimbly.
You get the kettle on.
I know it must be disappointing for many, having had rock and roll (or some other popular flavour) as part of their identity since they were a wee wain… having traveled many miles through lifes tragedy with tom and dick and harry and their tuneless cacophonies and nursery rhyme sentiment… endlessly re-experienced on plastic disks or electrons and screens.. crushed in drafty halls to observe them tunelessly falling around high on drugs..
but unfortunately the entertainment-plex is just another facet of the modern control grid…
and your heroes charlatans.. who work for the ‘man’*…
they always did..
*(probably not the stranglers)..
Mitchell “felt disillusioned about the high priority given to technical skill over free-class creativity [at Alberta University of the Arts] and felt out of step with the trend toward pure abstraction and the tendency to move into commercial art“.
And yet here she stands, the very product of commercial “art” (Mitchell’s albums have been released primarily on the major corporate labels, like Universal and Warner, or sub-labels owned by those corporate majors).
And as such her “art” is largely controlled by corporate entertainment Executives, A&R goons and PR propagandists.
As in the words of Political Scientist and Philosopher, Hannah Arndt:
“The most radical revolutionary will become a conservative the day after the revolution.“
“Conservatism” herein meaning a reliance on the status-quo, establishment, etc. (not as in partisan “conservatism”).
How do you turn an “anti-establishment”, “outsider”, “rogue” and such type member of society into a pro-establishment & systematic shill?
Give ’em enough money & stuff.
Then suddenly they want the establishment system to protect their precious stuff.
Also in the words of Arndt:
“The moment we no longer have a free press, anything can happen. What makes it possible for a totalitarian or any other dictatorship to rule is that people are not informed; how can you have an opinion if you are not informed?“
The concept of “free press” not meaning controlled/censored only by governments, but controlled/censored by corporate Lords as well.
You don’t have a truly “free press” when a few Big Asset Management firms & Big Banks control most of that press (including supposed “competitors”).
Historically, Entertainment & Propaganda have always gone hand-in-hand.
One of the best ways to control the mass populations, is to control those things that influence them.
“If you can influence the leaders, either with or without their conscious cooperation, you automatically influence the group which they sway.”
-Edward Bernays, Propaganda-
But perhaps one of the most interesting parts of this ridiculous Mitchell saga is the fact that she has been a lifelong smoker.
With the CDC identifying smoking as the leading underlying cause of early death and chronic illness.
Including wreaking havoc on the immune system, necessary to ward off disease & illness, like the flu and “covid” and such.
Noting that the largest owners of the largest Big Tobacco companies are the same CARTEL that exist as the largest owners of the largest Big Pharma “vaccine” makers.
GOTTA SMOKE MORE SO THAT WE CAN SELL MORE “LIFE SAVING” PHARMACEUTICALS!
MEDICAL INDUSTRY CUSTOMERS FOR LIFE!
If they didn’t work for the man, no one would ever have heard them – maybe a good thing?
But then, the same can be said for the classical icons – Beethoven and almost all the others, who had – HAD TO HAVE – aristocratic patrons.
When humanity allows a few psychopaths to acquire virtually all the wealth it produces, just try NOT working for the man and see how far you get.
+100
now now ‘howard’.. don’t be disingenuous… we all know Beethoven based his most memorable motifs on ‘common’ drinking songs…
and of course he was a socialist who championed the Republic and social justice for the lower classes, until ole Bony killed all his friends accidentally on purpose… (though as you noted he would fill his purse with aristocratic blood money)….
and of course he was outspoken and boorish and didn’t suffer fools… drank too much and no doubt dabbled in laudenum.. stumbling round the stage stone deaf and stoned drunk…
but at least he was honest…
and ‘talented’….
Excellent!
