    Understood. It's just that we only ever talk about the ones that behave like the Gestapo. They're pieces of shit. Just trying to remind people of the ones that don't behave like the Gestapo, because they're not, and also exist.

    We know that. We all have friends that are cops that are not like that. We're not worried about them. We're worried about the bad ones, and what we will have to do about them when SHTF, and if the good ones will help us.

    Fair enough. Seems that most people here don't live in urban areas though, and therefore end up only seeing the worst of what is happening in certain cities. I just thought it might be ever so slightly useful to point out that even in the biggest urban "hotspot" of the socialist paradise of Canadia, good ones still exist, and are doing their part to help out to the best of their abilities. That's all.

They wear masks religiously, and every flat surface in the cubicles is plastered with info and mandates and "reminders." The logistics bays and smoke decks? Not so much.
    Having spent a big chunk of my career in the aerospace and defense industry, I can attest to this mindset. Although I've been retired for 4 years I noted the gulf between former veterans in gubmint civil service and those who simply took the test and got on the career ticket punch stepmill. The former were good folks to work with in getting some "product" out the door. The latter were tedious time servers who were more attuned to reading you the chapter and verse of the regs rather than seeing ANYTHING get accomplished. They were fully assimilated Borg.

    Maybe it's time for the good ones to start reining in the bad ones. We can't do it by ourselves, and it will be less bloody if the good ones stood up.

    Turns out this Biden information has been around for about a month:

    【三个硬盘】 Sept.24th Lude's broadcast: 3 hard drives, provided 3 hard drives to the DOJ of America - YouTube

    A good look at the inner workings of the Chinese Communist Party from a former insider who was forced to flee:

    Exiled Chinese Billionaire's Accusations of China (w/ Guo Wengui & Kyle Bass) | RV Classics - YouTube


    And vote fraud caught on tape in Maryland. I would be surprised if it is ever investigated or prosecuted:

    I like the borg analogy, we have the same kind in England.

    It will be interesting to see if anybody in the MSM cracks under the weight of shame, if they still possess any.

And practices like wiping down common surfaces, grocery checkout areas and so forth, are way up.

    We may see more flu tests done this year. Because of covid anxiety, people with respiratory illness are perhaps more likely to seek medical attention, and they will be tested for both covid and flu. So flu testing will probably be done more often this season.
    The quote I posted was for the 2019-2020 flu season, which ended approximately in April. It was of extreme interest to me that COVID emerged and suddenly the flu stopped
    killing people and infecting people. COVID did all the killing, allegedly. Was there even a single flu patient in the “overrun” NYC hospitals?

    Also, if the people who were going to succumb to the flu died of COVID, and we don’t make a big deal out of the flu each year, then why is the world going absolutely fucking nuts?
