Found On The Internet

CDC advice on the vaccine ME: CDC, should I get poke if I already had Covid? CDC: “Yes, you should be poked regardless of whether you already had COVID-19. That’s because experts do not yet know how long you are protected from getting sick again after recovering from COVID-19.” ME: Oh, okay, we don’t know how long natural immunity lasts. Got it. So, how long does poke-induced immunity last? CDC: “There is still a lot we are learning about COVID-19 pokes and CDC is constantly reviewing evidence and updating guidance. We don’t know how long protection lasts for those who are poked.” ME: Okay … but wait a second. I thought you said the reason I need the poke was because we don’t know how long my natural immunity lasts, but it seems like you’re saying we ALSO don’t know how long poke immunity lasts either. So, how exactly is the poke immunity better than my natural immunity? CDC: … ME: Uh … alright. But, haven’t there been a bunch of studies suggesting that natural immunity could last for years or decades? CDC: Yes. NEWYORKTIMES: “Years, maybe even decades, according to a new study.” ME: Ah. So natural immunity might last longer than poke immunity? CDC: Possibly. You never know. ME: Okay. If I get the poke, does that mean I won’t get sick? BRITAIN: Nope. We are just now entering a seasonal spike and about half of our infections and hospital admissions are poked people. ME: CDC, is this true? Are there a lot of people in the U.S. catching Covid after getting the poke? CDC: We stopped tracking breakthrough cases. We accept voluntary reports of breakthroughs but aren’t out there looking for them. ME: Does that mean that if someone comes in the hospital with Covid, you don’t track them because they’ve been poked? You only track the UN-poked Covid cases? CDC: That’s right. ME: Oh, okay. Hmm. Well, if I can still get sick after I get the poke, how is it helping me? CDC: We never said you wouldn’t get sick. We said it would reduce your chances of serious illness or death. ME: Oh, sorry. Alright, exactly how much does it reduce my chance of serious illness or death. CDC: We don’t know “exactly.” ME: Oh. Then what’s your best estimate for how much risk reduction there is? CDC: We don’t know, okay? Next question. ME: Um, if I’m healthy and don’t want the poke, is there any reason I should get it? CDC: Yes, for the collective. ME: How does the collective benefit from me getting poked? CDC: Because you could spread the virus to someone else who might get sick and die. ME: Can a poked person spread the virus to someone else? CDC: Yes. ME: So if I get poked, I could still spread the virus to someone else? CDC: Yes. ME: But I thought you just said, the REASON I should get poked was to prevent me spreading the virus? How does that make sense if I can still catch Covid and spread it after getting the poke? CDC: Never mind that. The other thing is, if you stay unpoked, there’s a chance the virus could possibly mutate into a strain that escapes the pokes protection, putting all poked people at risk. ME: So the poke stops the virus from mutating? CDC: No. ME: So it can still mutate in poked people? CDC: Yes. ME: This seems confusing. If the poke doesn’t stop mutations, and it doesn’t stop infections, then how does me getting poked help prevent a more deadly strain from evolving to escape the poke? CDC: You aren’t listening, okay? The bottom line is: as long as you are unpoked, you pose a threat to poked people. ME: But what KIND of threat?? CDC: The threat that they could get a serious case of Covid and possibly die. ME: My brain hurts. Didn’t you JUST say that the poke doesn’t keep people from catching Covid, but prevents a serious case or dying? Now it seems like you’re saying poked people can still easily die from Covid even after they got the poke just by running into an unpoked person! Which is it?? CDC: That’s it, we’re hanging up now. ME: Wait! I just want to make sure I understand all this. So, even if I ALREADY had Covid, I should STILL get poked, because we don’t know how long natural immunity lasts, and we also don’t know how long poke immunity lasts. And I should get the poke to keep a poked person from catching Covid from me, but even if I get the poke, I can give it to the poked person anyways. And, the other poked person can still easily catch a serious case of Covid from me and die. Do I have all that right? … ME: Um, hello? Is anyone there?

Maybe humans actually do have a God Gene. Maybe there is an inner need to commune with others who share your beliefs in a higher purpose, while indulging in ritualistic behaviors and chanting mantras.

The corollary seems to be the belief that non-believers are sinful lesser beings who deserve scorn and ostracism, which always seems to accompany religion. The problem is when Church and State are one, and the organized power of the State can be brought to bear onto the heretics.

The USA has never had a state religion (unlike some of the colonies before there was a USA). We have the First Amendment, which separated church and state. That meant that a thousand flowers bloomed, from snake handlers to foot washers to organized religions inherited from the Middle East and elsewhere.

But 5 years ago our owners introduced the Devil personified, a figure around which a new religion was formed. At the time I compared the 24/7 Minutes of Hate presented on all media channels to Emmanual Goldstein, but now that the state has officially adopted the tenets of the new religion, I see that Trump represented the Devil to those people in this country who don't hold any traditional religious beliefs, so were in need of some deeper meaning in life to cling to.

And this explains why the True Believers of the new faith, which they call ''Science'', furiously denounce skeptics as ''right wing Christian Trumpers". It is true that Americans who hold traditional religious beliefs are somewhat less likely to have converted to the new religion.

They already have a biologically impossible belief, the idea the a dead person can rise again, they don't need to believe that humans can change sex. They believe that God loves all humans equally, so they are unlikely to adopt the belief that some races are born with unredeemable Original Sin, and that humans should be judged by the color of their skin. They already have priests and ministers issuing decrees, so are more likely to be resistant to the decrees of Pope Tony the Infallible.

I think that the dangerous ones are the True Believers, who now cheer on the State/Corporate alliance which is enforcing indoctrination on children and genuflection from adults. Traditional End Timers who crave the Second Coming, when Jesus metes out horrendous punishment to non-believers, got nothing on the liberals of today, who unashamedly spew their lurid fantasies of disease and death to those who refuse to submit to their dogmas.

This marriage of Church and State, which is actually a grab for power (just like previous grabs), is dangerous to those who prefer Enlightenment doctrines of free humanity, complete with civil liberties including free speech, bodily sovereignty, and free will.

The smug self-righteousness of those who ally themselves with power, as they cheer on the corporate/government (or private/public partnership or stakeholder capitalism, whatever you prefer to call it) cartel's overreach into matters of human conscience and autonomy, is reminiscent of past humans gathering to watch a public hanging or stoning of heretics.

And now the Biden government has announced that they will proselytize door-to-door, in the service of Big Pharma. The profits to be made from forcing every human on Earth to submit to forced inoculation are so great that the corporate/government prophets are salivating.

There are more profits to be made with this than the forced insurance company tithing that Obama pushed through. More money at stake than the billions made from convincing children that they were born in the "wrong body''.

This worldwide grab for ultimate power is audaciously bold. That is why it has taken years to roll out. This is bigger than the Catholic church taking over Europe and then riding with the Conquistadors to the Americas. This is Global Cap seizing wealth and power.

We are entering a new Dark Age. It doesn't look good for Free Thinkers.

Try To Follow The Plot, Please

Supposedly, Sesame Street was the beginning of the scattering of the American mind. Instead of TV shows that had a logical plot, dialogue that advanced that plot and a conclusion that wrapped up all loose ends advanced during the hour, SS flashed pictures, songs and disjointed words that were not connected with each other.

I sometimes bemoan my own decreased attention span since I got onto the internet. I rarely read books anymore, I just surf. But dude! At least I can follow the plot line of ongoing Major News Events and Scary New Threats.

Only last year, Fauci rolled out the idea of immunization passports and he said that they would go to those people who had recovered from the disease and those people who had submitted to the jab.

What happened to that? They changed it and NO ONE notices?? Now they are pushing for people with natural immunity to submit, and they tell some cock-eyed tale about how the GMO-induced immunity is real and true, not like that other immunity, even if it is the SAME damn immune system putting it out!

What the hell? Can no one remember the previous plot lines?

Last year we were excoriating Trump for allowing the virus into our country and our nursing homes, but this year the Delta strain shows up in India and then comes here a couple of months later and no one wonders how or why?

We still don't know how to stop the spread? That is complete bullshit and everyone should know it. Over a year of propaganda about how Trump should have stopped it, but now no one expects Biden or our public health officials to stop the new one?

Everyone should remember that cold and flu season is in the winter, not the spring and summer. Everyone should remember that last year deaths dropped dramatically when summer came. Why are we being told that this new variant is spreading through the summer?

But no one remembers. Watching the news is like watching Sesame Street, with new memes flashed constantly, no adherence to logic or previous themes, no coherent plot line and when the main character is exposed as a war criminal, no accountability!

How is it possible that the hero turns out to be the villain of the entire story and then the movie plays on without a denouement? And no one notices?

It's Magic

When I was a kid, I thought that the faces on Mt. Rushmore were a natural occurrence, like Jesus on a piece of toast.

But when I read that they were sculpted, I dropped my former belief, because, obviously, it made much more sense that it was deliberately sculpted.

I'm not embarrassed that I had Magical Thinking as a child, since I let new information change my mind.

And let's face it, we have adults today arguing strenuously that it is completely natural for human, bat, pangolin and ferret viruses to combine, including an entire genetic sequence which makes the virus attach easily to human ACE receptor cells. Completely natural.

Duh. Happens every day, just like wind and rain erosion carves human faces into mountains. Jeez, you would have to be a conspiracy theorist to think that bioweapons research labs working on gain-of-function coronaviruses have ANYTHING to do with the SARS 2 virus.

I'm glad that I grew up.

The Pentagon Announces War On Americans

Mark Milley, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, gave testimony last week in which he claimed that the greatest threat to America today is angry white Americans. And the liberals cheered! Finally, the US war machine has seen the light!

In service to the new military campaign, Facebook rolled out new notices, in which users are informed that they might have been exposed to extremism! Or they might be thinking WrongThink extremist ideas and they need help! Or, maybe they know someone, family or friends, who might be thinking WrongThought, and need to be turned into Big Brother so that they can get the help they need.

This is a new and ominous step in the continuing campaign by our ruling overlords to lockdown, censor and criminalize dissent against their policies and agenda. I discuss it in my latest podcast.

Is Putin Using the Nixon ''Madman'' Tactic?

In 1969 Richard Nixon became president of the US. His staff encouraged the image of him as a madman capable of using nuclear weapons at the drop of a hat, in order to scare the North Vietnamese into surrender.

Even the most rabid of Russia haters should be able to see that Vladmir Putin is almost supernaturally patient with US provocations so far.

The constant demonization of him personally, the arming and training of terrorists in Syria trying to overthrow Russia's ally there, the coup in Ukraine which put open Russia-hating Nazis into power on Russia's border, the killing of 15,000 ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine, the downing of Malaysian airliner 17, most likely done by Ukraine, but blamed on Russia, the downing of the Russian civilian airliner in Egypt that killed 224 people, the downing of the fighter Russian jet and the murder of its pilot, the killing of the Russian Red Army Choir on Christmas 2016, the 8 Russian ambassadors dying in 2016 (and one in early 2017), the closing of the Russian embassies, the stealing of their property and the insult of making the Embassy ambassador and staff wait on the tarmac instead of inside the airport, the moving of US and NATO troops to Russia's borders in January 2017 (as one of Obama's last moves), the accusations of poisoning of various people, the sanctions, the attempted bombing of another Russian airliner in May, 2017 (thwarted by Trump, which caused an uproar of outrage from the chattering class), the killing of Russians in Syria, etc.

None of these provocations have caused Putin to respond with military action, up until now. And the British provocation of June 24th was met with a non-lethal response also.

But in a press conference yesterday, June 30th, Putin responded to a question by asserting that Russia could have sunk the HMS Defender without starting a wider war. Say what? Don't we all know that the UK and the US would have pounced immediately to start a wider war? Why would Putin imply that there are rational people in the UK and the US who would prevail over the war mongers?

Is Putin tired of playing the role of the rational leader? Is he going for the Nixon "he's so crazy he might do anything" tactic? Maybe. But if he does respond militarily is he falling into a trap?

There is speculation that the response of the West, if Russia responds to their provocations, will not be war, but the unseating of Russia from the Security Council, so that they can no longer veto the US using the UN for their war and domination plans. This would be tragic for many people around the world who have been saved by Russia's vetoes so far.

Or the plan could be to use the Mighty Wurlitzer of mainstream Mockingbird media propaganda to stop France and Germany from making a seperate peace with Russia, thereby fulfilling the role of NATO, which was to keep the US in, Germany down and Russia out, as explained by the first NATO leader, Lord Ismay.

As the provocations continue, I guess we'll see how it will be played.
