    Old fashioned way to say it is lying.

    Why Anger towards the Unvaccinated was Intentional Psychological Manipulation

    They are learning how best to control you.

    Also in my experience there is a subset of people that are contrarians and will never do what they are told. Funnily enough they are some of the easiest people to control.

    Everyone here can look forward to "personalised' ads in the future where some soy drenched small bald man with glasses earnestly looks into the camera and tells you it takes real strength to be vegetarian to save the climate.

    Or better yet, a flurry of "studies" that "prove" riding a bike is the best strength training that one can do.

    Here's an interesting column on WUWT: The new Pause lengthens: now 7 years 6 months – Watts Up With That?


    There has been much speculation that the next lockdowns will be driven by climate fraud. Here's a question: Exactly how much has sea level risen in the past 50 years? Do read the whole thing.
    Somehow, I dread this more than WWIII, the invisible enemy the climate hoax provides... Sound familiar? Like these stupid corrupt fuckers in government could control the climate. They couldn't control passing out snacks to Kindergartners at nap time.

    But the masses are already on board, and when the climate trigger gets pulled, we're fooked.

What is termed nazism in Eastern Europe is more like just hard core nationalism (plus an extreme anti Russian stance in some countries), and the reason guys like these are into SS imagery and stuff is largely fashion and the anti Russian angle. Also, a lot of like soccer hooligans are into sieg heil and stuff like that not because they studied Mein Kampf, but because it is an anti system thing to do, and it gets them media notoriety.
    It isn't so much about the Jew angle or socialism; it is about a people being ruled by foreigners.
    The ideology would not accept a foreigner (regardless of their geographic birthplace) of any race ruling their people; it even extends to the belief that the rulers of Israel should be ethnically Jewish.
    They are also a group that believes their nations have been manipulated in the past, so it is difficult to believe a follower of the ideology would unquestioningly enlist their nation to be a sacrificial pawn at the behest of a foreign leader.

    The extent of my knowledge of history is that the typical Eastern European viewed the Nazis as liberators from the terrors of Communist Bolshevism and that the view persists among the average citizen today.
    They remember the Holodomor.
    However, they also remember the Bleiburg Massacre, torture of Nazi collaborator POWs at the hands of the Allies and the post WWII deals that sent their grandparents to the gallows, or worse, to torture before a certain death in Stalin's gulags.

    Though the anti-Russian sentiment may remain among the more reactionary (just as it is in the US today), their anti-Western sentiment should be supported by both the reactionary and the logical.

    How much the sea has risen or will rise is a tough problem. Antarctica which accounts for most of the globe’s ice, is on land. The northern polar ice cap (with the exception of Greenland and other glaciers) is already in the water floating. So northern ice or melted ice makes little to no difference to sea level (some density factors aside). Just like when the ice in your drink melts, it doesn’t spill over.

    But the mass of ice that is on top of the Antarctic continent is so large that it displaces a lot of water by pressing the land mass down. How much is speculation. Additionally, the surface air pressure , which is very variable there, is monitored closely and is possibly an important parameter as well. It is not clear what happens if all the ice melts or goes into the ocean as ice bergs vs how much pressure is relieved vs local air pressure changes.

    I know some about this as I helped keep the records for the year I lived there. I assure you this science is no where close to “case closed”.

    Isostatic rebound. Greenland is another example. But I just want to know how much real estate in Florida has been lost to the inexorable advance of the rising oceans due to the callous disregard for greenhouse gas emissions and racism.

    Well certainly the root cause of the "climate crisis" is racism, everyone knows that, or at least that's what I hear from the state media. It's also fueled by emissions from the patriarchy and strong women (can I say women?). I've also read recently that strength training is racist...

    File this under: They're gonna get away with it!

    I was scrolling through my Instagram feed this morning, and ran across the latest meme where the top frame frame shows six gym bros sitting along a wall (with various descriptions of each).

    The bottom frame shows five ghosts, and one gym bro left along the wall. Each ghost has a caption detailing the reason they left the gym. Four of the reasons were quite reasonable, the fifth made my jaw drop...MYOCARDITIS.

    They're mainstreaming myocarditis. ***shakes head sadly***

    The people responsible for this shit show, really are gonna get away with it aren't they!?!?

    At least with WWIII you get to kill the enemy destroying your civilization. When it's trannies, border invaders, groomers, election riggers, propagandists, weak-wristed tech executives, etc you get to just watch, despite them deserving the fate even more than an invading soldier who probably doesn't even want to be there.
