This Week in the New Normal #27

Our successor to This Week in the Guardian, This Week in the New Normal is our weekly chart of the progress of autocracy, authoritarianism and economic restructuring around the world.

1. Any solution you like as long as its neo-feudalism

A new report has been published claiming the best way the people of Europe can “hurt Putin” is to use less oil and gas.

The report, titled “Switch Off Putin”, goes as far as suggesting energy rationing, making it illegal to set your thermostat above 18 degrees, banning private cars from cities and ceasing all intra-European flights.

The write-up in the Guardian somehow crams in eating less meat as well.

Fly less. Drive less. Eat less meat. Live like a pauper.

At the beginning of the “pandemic” in 2020, we published a piece pointing out that every single policy being put forward to “prevent future pandemics” had already been suggested as a means of “stopping climate change”: Drive less, fly less, eat less meat.

Famously, when asked what colours the Model T came in, Henry Ford replied “any colour you want so long as it’s black”. Same goes here. Any solution you like, so long as it’s neo-feudalism.

We need to ban cars and planes and beef to save the planet prevent pandemics support Ukraine.

They don’t care why you do these things, but they really, really want you to do them.

2. “Temporary” Covid laws

The government of Victoria has extended their emergency powers. The Australian state’s incredibly authoritarian “temporary” Covid laws were set to expire on Tuesday April 12th, having already been extended twice.

Then, on April 5th, Victorian health minister Martin Foley told the press there was “every expectation” they will be extended past the April 12th deadline.

The very next day, Premier Andrews did just that.

The only way any of this should surprise you is if you paid literally no attention to the actions of any government, or the use of any “emergency” powers, in all of human history. Which, sadly, does describe a lot of people.

The “temporary” powers are now set to expire in July…but I wouldn’t put any money on that.

3. Redefining Hubris

The UK’s National Gallery has changed the name of a Degas drawing to “better reflect the subject”.

The piece, formerly known as “Russian Dancers”, but henceforth “Ukrainian Dancers”, is a pastel drawing of two female figures. The Guardian article doesn’t say how they know that the women are Ukrainian, except that they have blue and yellow ribbons in their hair. Yes, seriously.

There’s no talk of disrespect for the artist (who presumably named the piece for a reason), there’s no talk of the dangers of the “updating” art to reflect modern sensibilities, and there’s certainly nobody pointing out that at the time the drawing was done Ukraine did not exist as a nation.

Only a vague, waffling justification for updating the title, and a suggestion that more is to come…

The National Gallery told the Guardian research that was continuing about paintings in its collection and information about its works was updated as and when appropriate and when new information came to light.

Which puts me in mind of this…

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

I really do hate how much we have to quote 1984 recently.

BONUS: Hellhole of the week

First time we’ve repeated an “…of the week” title, but how else can you really describe what’s happening in China right now? Currently, 50 million people are in full lockdown.

In Shanghai, they’ve had a week of “full lockdown”, literally no leaving the house for any reason at all, and are seeing massive food shortages. Residents are protesting by screaming from their balconies:

In Jinan, people are literally on their knees waiting for white-suited drones to scan their digital vaccine passports, all allegedly in the name of pursuing “zero Covid”.

But the real reason?

Maybe it’s about pushing people to see when they will snap. Maybe it’s just crushing people for the sake of it. Or maybe it’s all a psyop done to normalize these dystopian visuals.

Who can say at this point?

BONUS II: Pathetic PR stunt of the week

The cringy imagery of Boris waddling around Kiev trying to look grave is blackly funny, especially when you know it was Churchill Day yesterday, and there press are being SO ham-fisted about it:

When they say Johnson is being “compared to Churchill”, they mean by them, just now.

Also, for future reference, “compared” is a media weasel word, like “appeared”. You could say Johnson is nothing like Churchill except they’re both overweight narcissistic poshos, and the media could truthfully sum it up as “Johnson was compared to Churchill”.

It’s not all bad…

It’s been a minute since we did a Meme Monday post, hasn’t it? Well to make up here are a few chuckle-worthy offerings to get you through the day…

We’d also like to say that our Rokfin panel had a great response, and to all those people saying they want to see more of it – we’re already planning the next one.

*

All told a pretty hectic week for the new normal crowd, and we didn’t even mention Melbourne rolling out defibrillators to counter “dire” cardiac arrest numbers, the obvious coup in Pakistan or Canada’s looming “online harms” bill.

There’s a lot of change in the air, a lot of agendas in the works, if you see a headline, article, post or interview you think is a sign of the times, post it in the comments, email us or share it on social media and we will add it to the next edition.

A case against the term Neo-feudalism

Confucius have been asked by a disciple, what would be his first move if he were to run a kingdom. From this exchange a quote for westerners has been coined:

When words lose their meaning people lose their freedom.

Sure, one could stretch the meaning of word feudalism to the point that it fits current circumstances. Inevitably that would be very loose fit, since word feudalism signifies a socio-economic order that was quite different. Property today is foremost acquired by means of capital, that wasn’t the case during feudalism. There is not enough of feudalism today to justify the use of word!
Next, the word neo-feudalism is ahistorical, therefore keep in mind Orwellian consequences.

Proper term for today’s socio-economic order is Monopoly Capitalism.
Check
Monopoly, Tim Geilen
https://www.bitchute.com/video/4xvnZs0knFxm/

Be aware, one doesn’t need 50% share to control the corporation. A fourth of shares might be enough to effectively control a big corporation.
I think, neo-feudalism sounds good to free-market believers, they can abstain from using damn C word.

the first two items (renaming the dancers based on their ribbons) and the dark towers of trapped, screaming humans together sum up what keeps coming to mind:

everything that is happening is simultaneously ridiculous and scary.

I think the silliness is new and very ominous. I mean the Nazis could be a bit silly (as Charlie Chaplin showed) as could the Soviets (as a whole genre of jokes exemplified). But the sort of pairing of really demented ludicrousness with authoritarian terror has taken on a truly novel form, I think.

Nordstream 2 seems to have been permanently re-routed into media gas-lighting: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/10/opinion/putin-russia-ukraine.html Some choice lowlights: “How Do We Deal With a Superpower Led by a War Criminal?”The same way “we” did under Bush, Obama, Trump, Biden…. “the broad framework that kept much of the world stable and prospering since the end of the Cold War has been seriously fractured” Yugolsavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen… that sort of stability? And where’s this prosperity been? “”Putin’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine” The invasion is wrong – but “unprovoked” is just mockery. “the world as we’ve known it is profoundly changed. Nothing can work the same.” There’s the convid parallel – the near-immediate declaration of a new normal. ” we are entering a period of geopolitical and geoeconomic uncertainty the likes of which we have not known since 1989 — and possibly 1939.” Putin = Hitler. “Putin is now like a cornered animal” He’s not even a lone madman – he’s an animal! “his war has not only reinvigorated what was a stagnating Western military alliance, it has also guaranteed NATO’s solidarity and weapons modernization” How exactly was NATO stagnating? And the regular “our rearmament is a defensive reaction” trick is pulled off yet again. “a blitzkrieg takeover of Ukraine” Putin = Hitler pt. 2. “his army has been exposed as incompetent and barbaric and needing to enlist mercenaries from Syria and Chechnya” Why exactly does NATO need to expand and rearm if the Russian military is so useless it can’t even beat Ukraine? Plus the West’s use of mercenaries has just never happened in the NYT. “Putin has to be desperate to show that he produced something… he surely wants it by May 9,” Don’t expect any peace before then. “fracture NATO, as its member states get overwhelmed by so many refugees”… Read more »

I agree with you on all except the refugees part. You should have said that it exposes the hypocricy and the racism of the western bloc, when they directly infer that refugees are a factor of instability, when the crimes of FrontEx against mothers and infants aren’t allowed to see the light of day, when those people flee to Europe because of WAR brought to their homes in the form of “joint exercises” and arms deals and “fighting terrorism” , all while we are being told that refugees are welcome.

Chinese government is being full rogue in their latest lockdown measures –> https://twitter.com/Jaredtnelson/status/1512713451587710977

Things are bad in Italy also from what a commenter said earlier here.

All these have to be exposed and cut short. People movements against vaccine mandates and rights-violating lockdowns must continue with their efforts.

The Chinese lockdowns will be used an excuse to impose similar measures in other countries.

We must put a halt to this latest rogue act of global oligarchs/cabal via China, Italy etc.

The problem in China is the local bureaucrat authorities (in this case Shanghai) are paranoid about what the big boys in Beijing think of what they are doing, so they over react in order to keep their jobs. If they make a “mistake” they will lose their jobs and losing a Govt. job in China makes you almost unemployable.
But the way things are going Beijing, will probably think they have gone too far and so they will lose their jobs, anyway.

That Shanghai screaming video which is all over the internet reminds me of the ones I saw in January 2020 with people dropping dead on the street. The video “verified by the father of a close friend of mine”…..

I saw an interview on CGTN of two students from Beijing stuck in the Shanghai lockdown. By all means it sucks.  Independent foreign bloggers in Shanghai verify that they are stuck in their compounds and have been so for about two weeks although the lockdown and it sucks. They do not provide hysterical accounts.

In the video above you hear all this screaming in the background and yet the voiceover has no screaming near it. It’s clearly edited.

I have no idea why Shanghai has jumped onto the covid theatre / farce at this point in time but I also disagree with the way it is being hyped up in all NATO media outside China, whether independent or lamestream.

It’s worth remembering that even as Italy’s state of emergency ended after 26 months on March 31, 2022, all the measures still remain in place. Unvaccinated: over 50s are receiving fines in the mail, health workers are still suspended, teachers who are still suspended are being told they can work 36 hours instead of 18 for the same money doing some non-teaching job, and most places like long distance trains, entertainment are still off limits.
Yet we only hear about Italy’s “reopening”….after over two years….
No Canadian is allowed to leave Canada unless they are vaccinated nor can they travel across Canada by plane or train.

So I wonder why only the Shanghai lockdown is getting so much airtime?

The Russophobia of today is to be shifted to Sinophobia tomorrow so there’s that too.

On October 8, 2020, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced the arrests of 13 men suspected of orchestrating a domestic terror plot to kidnap American politician Gretchen Whitmer, the Governor of Michigan, and otherwise using violence to overthrow the state government.[1][2][3][4] Half of the suspects were tied to a paramilitary militia group that called themselves the Wolverine Watchmen.[5] Six of the suspects were charged in federal court, while the other seven were charged with state crimes.[4] A week later, a fourteenth suspect was arrested and charged in state court.[6]

When they say Johnson is being “compared to Churchill”, they mean by them, just now.

That’s what the subjectless voice always says. e.g.

“Realization is dawning that lockdowns will last forever, 90% of the population will have to die and Santa Claus is real!”

(And I inadvertantly put in another device there with “lockdowns will last forever” i.e. something that they themselves decide is presented as if it was some external event they have no control over.)

Churchill pimped vaccines when a “journalist” in the Boer War. Vaccination was so equated with military necessity by 1914 that Kitchener could insist troops had to be jabbed to be sent to the Western Front. Even the animals had to be vaccinated (they don’t see any difference really).

Begging for their solutions is just where they want us.

German lawmakers on Thursday rejected a bill requiring all people 60 and over in the country to be vaccinated against coronavirus — a compromise solution the government had hoped would get a parliamentary majority.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz and his health minister originally called for a vaccine mandate to apply to all adults in Germany, but some government lawmakers and most of the opposition had balked at the idea.

The bill was put forward by a cross-party group after months of haggling. It envisaged requiring older people to get the shot, but for there to be compulsory counseling for all adults to help them weigh the advantages and risks of vaccination against COVID-19.
In the end, 378 lawmakers voted against the bill, 296 were in favor and nine abstained.

The subject for a future OffG debate I hope.

Kit said in the first debate it was irrelevant if there was a virus but it’s not that deadly, there’s no virus but there are viruses or there are no viruses. Maybe at the start of convid that was true – but it must be clear by now that it’s massively relevant to this ruse being endlessly repeated.

Wherever propaganda is targeted to the anticipated disbelievers of the narrative attention must be paid to whatever it’s saying. There’s loads of controlled opposition saying “there’s a virus but …” so by definition the fact that there isn’t one must be important.

If there’s a virus there’s room for argument about the measures while if there’s no virus then no room for any argument other than “as there’s no virus, end of”, it simplifies things enormously.

Not getting clear on no virus means:
— fragmentation of the opposition argument
— unnecessary complication of the argument

No virus also highlights the emperor’s new clothes nature of the psyop, the complete smoke’n’mirrors operation.

I simply do not understand why you would question the importance of clarifying that there is no virus.

Multiple new NATO specification Naval bases are being built by US & UK in Ukraine Black Sea and Sea of Azov complete with new NATO spec Command and Control centres and a whole lot else !

This got called as Russian propaganda to me by a Guardianista . So I pulled the documents.

The British snuk the deal through last summer when the country was masked up and maxxed out . Govt doc very pleased with itself to be building 2 new bases and supplying a lot of gear . Financed by UKEF UK Export Finance.

The US are building ” several” naval bases in the Black Sea. All funded by the US . One will be ridiculously close to the Crimean Sevastopol Russian base. US on one side .. UK on the other.

I doubt these bases will go ahead. Russia now controls the whole Sea of Azov coastline, and the Black Sea coast around Odessa will not be very conducive to hostile building projects.

I would like to point out, if it hasn’t been already, that the state of Queensland extended the emergency legislation out to October.

Also the Chief Health Officer (CHO), an un-elected bureaucrat, has no legal responsibility to explain why he is mandating that people can’t work if they’re not injected. No data, no facts absolutely no reasonsing at all other than, do what you’re told peasant or die.

it is actually the case that it is the mentally I’ll who are taking up hospital beds…govts thought they could do all this rubbish and people wouldn’t have breakdowns…they are coming thick and fast rather like the blood clots.

It would be interesting to know what triggers such a decision. Is it down to an internal ‘woke’ decision? Does a memo go out to all public institutions instructing them to ‘cancel’ anything that mentions Russia in a positive light (presumably any images of Russian malevolence would be fine)? Or do they react to a member of the public carrying their blue and yellow backpack who’s been programmed to object to the word “Russian”? Whatever it is, it’s pathetic.

“Any solution you like, as long as it’s”…… NWO-compliant. This calls to mind a saying I repeat as often as I can conveniently when talking this issue up to any who will listen. Pretty often. (And I suspect anyway most of them are “mystery shoppers” aka, agents of some stripe, since that’s become increasingly the default mode of this global gig we got ourselves into. No matter, THEY are the ones who need to hear this most, at least all of those who have any quantity of useful volition left. Of all us rescue dawgs, they are the dawgs who need rescue most?) The saying I came across a few years ago in random browsing, but can’t source, due to the randomness, yet took to heart, by heart ( I think it was Spartacus Educational, but here it follows): “The CIA doesn’t care what you do as long as it’s something they want you to do.” Sounds like something Norman Mailer might have inked in his massive novel/tome, “Harlot’s Ghost: a Novel of the CIA” which was the result of 20 years or more research, the longest study of his literary life (I say, “or more”, since he had pledged a sequel named invitingly, “Harlot’s Grave” but went to his own before he could make good. (Grave, pledge.) He died in/from a fall at home. Seems like whenever he wasn’t busy at his main gig of diverting the NYC literary cocktail party crowd about town, Gotham City/Trumpville, he was brushing up on that crazy patchwork quilt of mobs centered in No. VA, as a constant observer. He had called the CIA “the mind of America” so that’s supportive of that quote.

Invoking emergency powers is way too easy.

Authority to invoke emergency powers needs to be in the hands of the legislative branch and should require a super majority like 3/4s or , at least, 2/3rds. Something that would require a significant portion of the minority party to pass.

It’s been a joke.

Spending bills above a certain amount and/or having the potential for imposing severe economic stressors should require the same super majority. Things have run amok everywhere and we need to put a stop to radicalism.

Before dumb asses decide the fucking sky is falling and invoke an emergency, they need to provide proof followed by a peer review of trusted academia. Then it should be a super majority vote.

It’s been way too easy for radicalism and it has to stop.

If it is determined that fraud was involved in the data generation, there should be criminal consequences and the complete rescinding of the law and the returning of the cash allocated by the law.

We need to hold these idiots accountable.

We need to hold these oligarchs pushing these false narratives accountable.

We need to hold politicians that fall for these bullshit ideas without verifying accountable.

All of the financial realities facing us now are a consequence of the policies adopted by the Fed and the world’s central banks implementing Blackrocks’s recommendations. The first thing that Blackrock did was bail out its own Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) effectively a new TARP with ETFs being the new subprime CDF’s (Credit default swaps) What Klaus Schwam calls the 4th industrial revolution or Great Reset, and the slogan “Build Back Better”, all the Green New Deals and promised fresh starts stem from a Financialised Bean counter logic from Black rock and its Going Direct, we are living in the Going Direct paradigm and in Going Direct there is no democracy, there are no grassroots there is only Authority to below and obedience to above.

Since then, little has changed. At the top of the pyramid of global management are the same 22 hereditary clans, a team that is artificial, and to create the appearance of choice it is divided into two teams (left and right). For the crowd, through controlled media, these two teams portray opposition to each other with an accompanying question: ‘So you’re for this side or for that side?’ Political life, to distract the crowd from important issues, is filled with formidable battles. The symbol of the opposition, cultivated to attract public attention and fanaticism is football: 11 on the left and 11 on the right rolling a ball on the field, which represents the globe. This is an iconic game for those who know something about the schemes of global governance of mankind, one of the most powerful techniques pumped-up out of the matrix crowd of ´elitism´.

What will result?
During this temporary period of crisis we will supply everyone who registers & gets their jabs with a digital guaranteed income. In return we ask only that you stay in your residence except for one hour a week when you can go out to buy necessities. This is a temporary measure of course, while we reinvent the economy. It will end in two months.

Oh, and during this time you are not permitted to PRAY– we have those nice little transmitters in your blood now to remind you not do that. Also no SINGING; any heroic extension of the soul is inappropriate at this time. And just to make all of this easier for you we have put a little something in the water; it’s perfectly safe and effective– just make you feel more tranquil & perhaps a little sleepytime.

It’ll certainly be WORSE than this, people. Time to start thinking about & implementing the solutions– like right NOW.

Regulation (EU) 2021/953 on the EU Digital COVID Certificate introduced EU-wide rules for issuing and accepting proof of a person’s COVID-19 vaccination, test result or recovery.

The EU Digital COVID Certificate helps people travel freely within the EU during the COVID-19 pandemic. How the certificate is used for other purposes (access to events, etc.) is up to each EU country to decide.

The Regulation currently applies until 30 June 2022. This initiative proposes to extend it by 12 months.

The tale of a coerced jabberoid First some background. I work in a business that is based around international yachting. For the last two years I’ve been gambling that the ‘data’ would finally end the global mandate madness, but as we know in much of the EU, USA, Canada, Australia, NZ tis clear no jab – no go, and I doubt in fact the vaxx passes will ever be scrapped totally for public jet travel. Long story short, I have for work reasons to be in the USA as soon as poss, and my employer is aware that there is an allowable delay while I get pig-n-sticked. But here’s the really fascinating hidden truth of what’s going on, in the UK. I knew my non-vaxx status couldn’t last indefinitely though back in 2020/21 I managed two seasons in the Med on PCR tests only. Now I need to be in the USA the game changes. So for the last month, I’ve been trying literally desperately to find/secure a J&J one shot jab as they are fully recognised by the CDC and I could then have flown into the USA immediately two weeks later, no problem. Ergh, no. Though the UK got claimed in Oct 2021 to have secured 20m J&J Janssen doses, nada. Guess what? You can no longer get any adenovirus jabs in the UK at all and I am guessing too just the same will be the case in the EU. I talked to clinics and pharmacies in around Dublin re J&J one shots also no longer possible, though they did once use it allegedly? So unbeknown to most, AZ and J&J adenovirus tech is now completely dropped, off table. Only mRNA vaxxes are available in the UK. Following the science the side-affect profile on Moderna is even… Read more »

You have obviously never sailed into a US controlled port/harbour authority and faced the immigration officers on duty? The rules are more vigilant on paper work than flying into an airport as a tourist into say Miami.

And here’s how we sail to the USA in the 21st cent. I’m in the UK. During July onward one sails off across Biscay down the North Atlantic offshore toward Portugal, making weather stops as required. A sail boat if around 50ft averages 6-7knts passage making.

If this all goes well, with minimal wear/tear you aim to be in Palma, Canary islands [entry only for vaxxd currently] around Oct. You then need to prep the boat for the 21 day plus trip east west 2000nm jaunt to the Caribbean. This is as you may note is not yet the USA coastline. The optimal trade wind time for this part of the trip is Nov/Dec. Most people investing in this level of thousands of miles of transit like to stay down in the Caribbean as long as they can.

Long story short my employer will tolerate a months delay, a year plus? That’s hilarious…sadly we all no longer live in the 18th century.

And I don’t have Greta’s pull of publicity to hop me aboard a Rothschild’s banking sponsored racing boat, not that it makes any difference to entry protocols.

I have no intention of becoming an illegal immigrant or resorting to forgery… and a US prison visit isn’t top of my list of must do experiences. Neither is destroying a successful career this last decade or so.

The only way this ends is real political overthrow. Not spirituality, hugging trees or singing Kumbaya.

Howard,
Dane Wigington is an intelligence operative. He is always claiming to “know” things and has never any scientific basis for anything.

Human-caused global warming has been disproven many times over. It is an agenda pushed by the same lying media that pushes the covid exaggeration and the necessity to degrade the global economy over one war with a small fraction of the fatalities of Yemen or Syria.

There is even excellent scientific data that NO WARMING is occurring at all. There are various periodicities in climate. One is approximately 30 years, and produced cooling 1945-1975, warming ’76-2006, and will continue to produce cooling 2007-2037.

Our current cooling phase is being exacerbated by the chemtrail project which reduces the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth.

30-year periodicity is based on the Greenland GISP2 Ice Core data.

Here’s an interesting data-based site; I give you just one of their articles:

Hell of a lot of spraying the past few days SE England, sky opaque. I never hear the jets though.

Perhaps the lack of passenger traffic means more planes are being used for spraying.

same up here, past month of it, i cannot trust the sky for real weather at all. we had snow/sleet falling out clear blue skies the other week, tinkled like glass as it landed.

I’d have to ask how you know Mr Wigington is an “intelligence operative.” Even beyond that, I must disagree that he presents no “scientific basis.”

He presents first hand evidence for atmospheric spraying; evidence for ozone layer destruction and consequent increasing UV-C radiation.

His website does have members from different parts of the world. Even so, I do have some questions regarding his world temperature readings (according to him, we are now 3.7 C above baseline – i.e., pre-industrial level).

He compares what’s happening to an incipient “Venus Syndrome” – which is a legitimate climate concept. However, I have to wonder why nobody using that term invokes the obvious caveat: Venus is approximately 1/3 closer to the sun than the Earth.

At any rate, though I may question certain particulars he presents, I do find his overall focus far more comprehensive than any other “alternative” explanation of what’s clearly happening across the world.

“Venus Syndrome”, Jesus. More crackpot scientifically ridiculous ideas. Human induced climate change will not even be able to reach the CO2 and temperature levels very common during the past 250Myrs, during which time life thrived. And our CO2 emissions will have to be curtailed due to the high price of fossil energy, already substantially higher than the cost of fission energy. If not for the self-serving blockade on nuclear energy by the Davos Psychopaths, we would have already replaced all major coal power plants with nuclear, and most gas would be no longer competitive and scheduled for replacement.

There are already well over 400 muclear power plants around the world. Won’t they be fun if and when the power grid goes down completely? Don’t know about you but I can hardly wait to see the fireworks!

BTW, CO2 is the least of our worries. Right now, the melting permafrost and warming Arctic Ocean is releasing methane at an ever increasing rate. Methane doesn’t play around, like CO2. It goes straight for the jugular.

Fear porn nonsense. Like how do you expect the power grid to go down completely. That impossible scenario would have zero effect on the 400 NPPs. What you think cooling 100kw of decay heat in a shutdown core is any difficulty? That’s like a electric boiler 1/2 the size of a desk with a 2″ cooling water line & a 1hp pump. Wowee. They have diesel fueled pumps that can easily provide that cooling. It’s not rocket science.

I listen to him every week. And that explanation does fit from the perspective of what owns us all. Every time I tell myself the depopulation thing is nuts, that “they” wouldn’t harm their greedy business interests by doing such a thing, I come right back to the fact that they know capitalism is dead, they know the earth is in trouble, and they do want to cull whilst stripping all resources while they do it. Taking it slow allows them to do that, as well as to avoid any nasty revolt that might come without the fear of covid and worldwide depression. And war. Of course war. They’re psychopaths. And they are most certainly using weather warfare to exacerbate all the climate issues that do exist. Maybe they feel if they kill off enough quick enough, they can bring back somehow all the areas of the earth they have poisoned over generations for profits once the herd is culled and totally under their control. It explains so, so much. I have listened to his broadcast since at least 2016, maybe a bit earlier. And I hear the difference in his tone since then. I do fear he’s right on target. Better to face it than not, as ugly as it is.

More like they use Malthusian ideas to justify their obscene wealth while forcing poverty on 99% of the World population. Not only accomplishes their desire to be an untouchable Aristocracy of the blue-bloods, but allows them to virtue signal how wonderful what they are doing is for the environment. It’s no accident that Nazism in Germany morphed into ecofascism which is prevalent in German governance. Rent seekers love scarcity. They hate plenty. A feudal society in which we own nothing, rent everything from them at their discretion is the sick, oppressive goal that they are trying to achieve. We are already seeing widespread effective rationing going on due to artificial shortages. The principle of rationing is supposed to be that it applies equally to everyone in any nation state, not that the wealthy are exempt from it.

Biosphere collapse?!? What a load of hogwash. Who invents this nonsense. Just how is that supposed to occur? Just because CO2 levels and temperatures are getting up to a level still well below the average over the past 60Myrs, during which time life was doing better than the past 2Myrs. No horrific ice ages that decimated the Northern Hemisphere most of the last 2Myrs, really just a fluke caused likely by the rise of the Himalayas. What damage humans have done is easily repairable by using rational & scientific methods of which the Davos Psycopath Malthusians hate with a passion. Get rid of those cretins and the problems can readily be resolved.

I love strawmen – such as the Davos crowd. They can be moved about just like cut-outs or Tinker Toys.

But, just for the record, the only thing they have to do with biosphere collapse is having brought it about with their incessant plundering of Earth’s resources.

When you see what a single piece of modern day equipment can do, you have to have a very focused set of blinders on not to see how much damage hundreds of pieces of such equipment working ’round the clock can do.

“plundering the Earth’s resources” -you mean like rock? oil & gas buried thousands of feet underground? reducing the Earth’s radiation by burning uranium? The only major biosphere problem is GHG emissions which are easily replaced with nuclear power. The Davos Psychos are the very core of the problem, because of their problem – reaction – solution scams.

One more thing: when you say ice ages were “horrific” aren’t you channeling the Davos Crowd? They too see all Earth as one great big backyard for human frolicking.

Well, human frolicking, like all good things, must come to an end.

The Davos crowd see the Earth as their private domain of which they can rent out to well behaved serfs as they see fit. The only “frolicking” they care about is their own, which will be unlimited.

That video from Shanghai is like something out of a dystopian movie. In fact as a movie it would have seemed a tad over the top just three years ago.

if this won’t wake up the likes of Matthew Ehret to the reality that China is as wedded to the destruction of freedom as any nation on earth, then what will?

Who said western protests did not work? If not for opposition to Covid sham and harmful in unprecedented ways jabs we all would’ve been shouting through windows. More people should understand that any kind of freedom starts from autonomy of physical body of individual. No autonomy thre can be no freedom at all. Ironically as Russian command stated thousands of Ukrainian POWs cannot be forcefully vaccinated or medically treated without free consent as it would be violation of Geneva Conventions.

Let’s break out from Prisoners of war against humanity camp.

I recently came across Ehret, he has some good ideas, then I heard him on China. I think he’s a socialist and that’s a closed system if ever there was one.
