    China went from full zero Covid lunacy to dropping testing within a couple of weeks.

    We have been playing this game of "democracy" for a while now as a species. But really it's an illusion no matter which way you want to look at it. It ultimately ends up being the exploitation of one class by another, packaged differently every 4 years, with the goal of any administration being the same. To reduce social control and increase state control. Why anyone participates in the farce at all anymore is a mystery.

    Yep, this non-stop "democracy" rhetoric is part of the subversion tactics Yuri warned us about 50 years ago.

    We are a constitutional republic for very important reasons, probably the most important is individual liberty.

    I would like this better if Glenn Beck was not so completely full of shit. He's right there with Hannity.

    Yes, I was trying to find a speech I heard the other day on the subject from back in the '60s that clearly distinguishes "democracy" from constitutional republic. Of course, the algorithm would not allow me to find it.

    Kushner made the real decisions, possibly at the behest of the WEF cabal and Trump did not do anything to stop it.

    But, the real issue is Trump was clearly anti-semitic for not lavishing praise and money on Zelensky...and for daring to cross Adam Schiff:

    And all it took was massive riots pushing back on the authoritarian government.

That's a pretty buyable explanation for me. The political stuff has all been just the usual actors not letting a crisis go to waste. What I really hope is that the fact that it was a case of hubris in research really gets drilled into the public. We need to learn that science does not understand everything, and that it does not make us gods. If we don't, fuckups like this will continue to happen, and they will be even worse in magnitude.
    Not everything is malicious or a grand conspiracy. Sometimes shit just happens and people act stupidly to cover their ass.


    Like most historical times in history, the actual kernel at the core is surprisingly mundane and boring. There's not even anything crazy about the original idea to release a mild disease into a bat population and drain the reservoir of nasty diseases. Speculative and maybe a bit risky but better to experiment in another species then ours.

    The term "conspiracy theory" is losing its rhetorical sting in front of a huge audience. We are clearly regaining ground on this front of the propaganda war.

    Attended a large (300+ people) funeral in my home town yesterday. Maybe half were visibly sick, and I received calls from over a dozen people saying they couldn't attend due to lingering covid or some other respiratory illness.

    This recent substack describes a possible (probable?) mechanism whereby the COVID injections/boosters basically act like "allergy shots":

    Booster-Caused Immune Tolerance Explains Excess Mortality and "Chronic Covid"

    Allergy shots are great for teaching your body to ignore harmless irritants like dog dander, but we know COVID spike proteins (from vaccine or the actual virus) are cytotoxic. This would explain why we are seeing so many vaccinated people having repeated and lingering "COVID" and other illnesses caused by the spike proteins. The Vaccinated have taught their bodies to give the spike proteins a hall pass.

    Where is that Immunologist PhD who defended this therapy a year ago here?
