    Better question: how much confidence does anyone have in this information?

    The conspiracy theory?

    What if they're developing viruses or other contaminants that target people with a particular genetic code for depopulation? Bio warfare under the guide of a pandemic outbreak?

    I guess we'll see.
    No doubt about it, the wests goons are surely involved in this and for the same reasons. They just can't handle the fact that they have competition from another country doing the same thing.

    No. If you read that piece from PJ Media you would have seen that the parents want to give a life saving kidney, but they refused the request of the hospital to take a cv-19 vaccination, that is a small imposition for the life of their son. I don't see if you are prepared to give a kidney why refuse a vaccination even if it is unfair, why use your son's life in a contest over religious beliefs. To have a cat or dog these days you have to get them vaccinated. If you run cattle you have to have them vaccinated otherwise you cannot sell them and you loose profit if you have sick animals. This is a human who's life depends on the parents not the hospital.

    It is not a scenario, the boy's life exists up until he receives a transplant, if not he may die all over a confused belief that somehow the CV-19 Vaccination is the Mark of the Beast. But beliefs do take life. The JW's have lost children because they refuse to take a blood transfusion. Hitler's belief in the Third Reich (the new kingdom) killed millions same as Putin's belief in resurrecting the old Soviet empire is killing thousands even his own men. What you believe in can be deadly.

    It seems a lot of countries are pulling back on abolition of human rights, but then things like this bob up and I have to wonder if they are just gearing up for the main event. article led me to this substack on the pandemic treaty.

    Apologies for posting this, but it made me laugh. Buy a Shotgun.

    How polite of him.
    I don’t think it is terribly conspiracy minded to consider all the mass shootings these days as some kind of scam done for more sinister reasons.

    Understanding ethnic disparities in involvement in crime – a limited scope rapid evidence review, by Professor Clifford Stott et al - GOV.UK

    One might argue that this official UK government report factually indicates that Rudyard Kipling’s “The White Man’s Burden” was justified in its focus on savagery correction. Perhaps causality lies in the DNA? That a black man became President of the USA maybe tells us everything we need to know about extent to which racism can be credibly used as a cause and defence of law-deviant savagery in Western Democracies these days.

    Yes, yes, the Heterodox all say this.

    They’re wrong.

    FTFY.

    There have been plenty of societies that have run without money, so money certainly is not needed to have a functioning society.
    Imho, it's when society becomes subservient to money, rather than the other way round, that you get into trouble, as I think any society based on neo-liberal values amply proves.
    What was in place until 1971 was not just the gold convertibility some value so much; capital controls were also essential to the post-WWII prosperity, and those were gradually removed starting from early 70s as well. Re-introducing one but not the other won't solve much; just look what happens in the Eurozone.

    I can't speak for the workers at your post office, but at mine, they work hard and are even friendly. After the lockdowns started in early 2020, my post office went to Christmas rush conditions for the entire year. Instead of 8 hours days, the rural delivery drivers were often working 12 hours days. While technically it's a hourly wage job, in reality, it's a salary job, so they weren't getting paid for those extra hours. Many after 2020, quit, retired, or if lucky managed to transfer to a city PO. My PO has been trying to hire for years and has never, even with offering $19 an hour, been able to get a full staff and in the last year, has had zero applications. Finally, the PO transferred all delivery services to the nearest city and only provides window and box services. Don't know how that's going to work in the winter, as Rockfish Pass is frequently covered in heavy fog.
