Never Forget, by Eric Peters

We were sold the Covid scare story and the vaccines by a bunch of used car salespeople. From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:

 
 

One of the most effective negative ad campaigns was the “Would you buy a used car from this man?” campaign that targeted Richard Nixon, who looked shifty and was shifty. In that sense, it wasn’t negative. It was truthful.

Who would buy a used car – or anything else – from Nixon?

Well, who would buy a “vaccine” from the shifty, shady people pushing them? People like Dr. Fauci, who lied when he said that “When people are vaccinated they’re not going to get infected.”

And people like CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, who also lied when she said “Vaccinated people do not carry the virus and don’t get sick.”

Would you buy a drug from either of these people?

 

One of the shadiest pushers of these drugs is Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla – whose shadiness makes Nixon’s five o’clock shadow seem downright honest-looking. He says “There is no variant that escapes the protection of our vaccines.”

This is a very clever lie in that it is a half-truth. He does not say the drugs he pushes are vaccines, which they are clearly not as vaccines prevent infection and transmission – which we now know these drugs do not. Witness the “vaccinated” getting serially infected – and serially spreading their sickness to others, also “vaccinated.” People like . . . Joe Biden and Rochelle Walensky, for instance. Who continue to urge “vaccination” notwithstanding all this infecting and spreading.

But Bourla is cleverer. He does not say his drugs prevent infection or transmission. He says “There is no variant that escapes the protection of our vaccines (sic).”

A shady lawyer could not have crafted that more sinuously. More oleaginously.

“Escapes the protection.”

Illegals Protected In New York, American Workers Menaced By Congress, by John Derbyshire

Why immigrate legally? Why work? Why not have the Americans take care of you? From John Derbyshire at unz.com:

Just when you’re thinking things couldn’t get any crazier on the immigration front, … they get crazier.

In last week’s podcast I noted the lavish benefits being showered on illegal aliens by New York City politicians—at the generous expense of New York taxpayers, of course.

And yes, it’s gotten crazier. I’ll just read a couple of paragraphs from the story in Wednesday’s New York Post.

A pair of Albany Democrats from New York City want taxpayers to pick up as much as $300 million in legal fees to help illegal immigrants fight deportation—despite worries it could also help potentially “dangerous people” stay in the country.

[Inner quote.] “We have a moral obligation to make sure that new Americans have legal representation. Otherwise, the odds are without a lawyer they’ll be sent back to their country of origin and could face dire circumstances, including death,” [end inner quote] state Sen. Brad Hoylman (D-Manhattan) said of legislation he is sponsoring alongside Assemblywoman Catalina Cruz (D-Queens).

Legislators estimate the effort would cost $300 million once fully funded, with supporters pushing for a $55 million down payment next year.

Rep. Adam Smith Says Calls for Ukraine Aid Oversight are ‘Russian Propaganda’, by Dave DeCamp

Anybody who is the least bit curious about where American taxpayer dollars are going in the Ukraine should be tried for treason. From Dave DeCamp at antiwar.com:

Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA), the head of the House Armed Services Committee, said Saturday that the growing calls for more oversight of the billions of dollars the US is spending on Ukraine are “part of Russian propaganda.”

While the majority of Republicans strongly favor continuing to arm Ukraine, even the more hawkish GOP members have said they favor increased oversight for the aid. Smith said that the concern from Republicans for more transparency “makes me a little crazy.”

“Ukraine is spending the money really well; that’s why they’re winning,” Smith said at the Reagan National Defense Forum, according to Defense News. “Yes, we need oversight, but we don’t need that as an excuse to not fund what we’re doing.”

Last month, a small group of House Republicans opposed to arming Ukraine led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) introduced a bill that would require an audit of the funds that the US has spent on the war so far. Greene said that if she needed to, she would reintroduce the legislation after the next Congress is sworn in this January.

The White House is looking for Congress to approve $37.7 billion in new Ukraine aid during the lame-duck period. If authorized, the new funds will bring total US spending on a proxy war on Russia’s border to about $105 billion.

 

Japanese Emeritus Professor at Kyoto University, Dr Masanori Fukushima, Blows Up Over the Covid-19 Vaccines and His Government’s Covid-19 Response. By 2nd Smartest Guy in the World

Far too slowly, but surely, all the suppressed issues with the Covid response and the vaccines are surfacing, even in a compliant country like Japan. From 2nd Smartest Guy in the World at 2ndsmartestguyintheworld.substack.com:

He speaks to the world: “this vaccine was scientifically misconceived”, “the harm caused by vaccines is now a worldwide problem”, “billions of lives could ultimately be in danger.”

 

Japanese come across typically as polite, restrained, and understated. This should make Dr. Fukushima’s callout all the more shocking and convincing.

Japan is among the most heavily Covid-19 vaccinated nations in the world.

Are Progressive “Experts” Fallible? Yes, But Don’t Tell Them That, by Claudio Grass

One of the unfortunate side effects of capitalism’s prodigious creation of wealth is the flow of money into academia, think tanks, media, and bureaucracies that in turn leads to the formation of an “expert” class. From Claudio Grass at mises.org:

It can be argued that the world has reached the sorry state it’s in today largely because academics, politicians, “distinguished experts,” and “recognized authorities” did not have the humility to admit their own mistakes or to at least recognize the limits of their knowledge. Of course, this is far from a new affliction in societies and political systems. Hubris was among the most terrible sins that the ancient Greeks warned against, and there have been too many narcissists in positions of power to count since the emergence of the first organized societies. People who believe they know best, not just for themselves, but everyone else too, are naturally attracted to roles that would allow them to impose their will, their morality, and their values on their neighbors.

However, one also can argue that the problem is much more prevalent today than at any other time in our history. The modern news landscape, both mainstream and social media, the supercharged propaganda machines of all developed nations, and our public education system, ensure that dangerous figures will hardly be challenged by anyone once presented to the public as de facto, “recognized,” and “widely accepted” authorities. This is also true of politicians, but things are infinitely more perilous when it comes to science. The average citizen can more easily question a political stance directly, whereas it can be impossible to judge the merits of a scientific one without detailed and specific knowledge.

Therefore, it is much easier to “sell” any academic, from professors to junior researchers, as an “authority,” one that must be obeyed and never questioned. They can freely give us all advice on how to live our lives, and they can even dictate policy, despite the fact that usually that kind of thing tends to have side effects in areas they have absolutely no clue about. Once placed on their pedestals, they become “anointed.” They don’t even have to share their qualifications, their accomplishments, or any testimonies from their peers.

the final stage of changing jerseys is wiping out the evidence that you ever wore a different one, by el gato malo

A full-scale effort is underway by those who championed Covid totalitarianism to rewrite history, whitewashing their incompetence and malice. From el gato malo at boriquagato.substack.com:

and it behooves us to make sure this does not occur

hey, remember that one time that this internet cat predicted that “everyone was going to change jerseys so hard that you would soon not be able to find anyone who admitted to supporting lockdowns?”

booyakasha.

Imagejust goin’ out for a little strut…

gatopal™ and personal friend jay is certainly correct in saying that “well, at least they have stopped” but i have real doubts it’s about shame.

i suspect it’s just crowd following in search of status and far from “having learned to know better” this gang will surge after then next thing just as rabidly.

they are just trying to squeak through an overton window before it slams on them

The Four Fuckeries, by James Howard Kunstler

Call them the four horsemen of America’s downfall. From James Howard Kunstler at kunstler.com:

“We want to save the planet, and the life upon it, but we’re not willing to pay the price and bear the consequences. So we make up a narrative that feels good and run with it.” — Raul Ilargi Meier

I doubt there is another era in the history of Western Civ when the forces in-motion acting on society were so mystifying to those acted upon. And isn’t it especially galling that this is so in an age after rational scientific practice had decoded so many of nature’s secrets? Did that project somehow fail in the end? Has the Enlightenment been defeated? How have we become trapped like frogs being boiled haplessly in our own pond-water?

I have reduced these forces to four obvious streams of the sheerest seemingly evil fuckery, which is to say nefariously managed events meant to harm us. They are surely all related in some way. Let’s try to de-mystify them to understand what we’re up against.

First: Covid-19. How is it that we don’t know for sure how this organism came into the world, or understand what ensued after it did? Answer: the people who caused it to happen in the Wuhan lab have been busy covering their asses for three years, and successfully so. Yet we know exactly what Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, Peter Daszak, Ralph Baric and others did. The paper trail in correspondence and patents alone is clear. We just can’t seem to do anything about it.

‘Woke Warfighters’: GOP Report Says Leftist Ideology, Gender “Insanity” Weakening America’s Military, by Naveen Anthrapully

If a corporation adopts woke ideology, it loses money and perhaps goes broke. The military doesn’t lose money (although it spends an awful lot of it), but it can lose wars, and woke ideology undoubtedly makes that outcome more likely. From Naveen Anthrapully at The Epoch Times via zerohedge.com:

Republican lawmakers have decried the Biden administration for policies that they say are weakening America’s military through leftist indoctrination and “woke” ideological posturing to appease “Ivy League faculty lounges or progressive pundits.”

“Unfortunately, President Joe Biden and his administration are weakening America’s warfighters through a sustained assault fueled by woke virtue signaling,” said Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) in a report titled “Woke Warfighters,” according to Fox News.

“Our military’s singular purpose is to ‘provide for the common defense’ of our nation. It cannot be turned into a left-wing social experiment. It cannot be used as a cudgel against America itself.”

The report cites several examples of the administration’s stance. One example was Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s first action after being confirmed by the Senate, which included signing a “racism” memorandum. The message directed all service members and Department of Defense civilian employees to conduct a “one-day stand-down” to discuss extremism within their ranks.

This was despite the fact that in a force of more than 2.1 million active and reserve members, there were only 100 such cases of alleged “extremism,” according to data collected by the Biden administration.

“The world is a dangerous place, and the Biden Administration’s insanity is eroding our greatest source of security in it,” said the report, citing the military’s promotion of Marxist critical race theory, sex reassignment procedures, and transgender ideology, as well as the punishment of those who oppose such things.

Another example was that of Bishop Garrison, who currently serves as Austin’s senior adviser on human capital and diversity, equity, and inclusion issues. The report said that Garrison promoted the “1619 Project,” which is based on a falsified history of the United States and part of a revisionist education being taught in some schools across the country.

Another case cited in the report was that of Kelisa Wing, the chief diversity, equity, and inclusion officer at the Department of Defense Education Agency.

“Wing also wrote a book to teach white children that they have white privilege and that ‘white privilege hurts a lot of people.’ The book comes with an exercise to help kids understand ‘what parts of my identity have provided me with privilege.’”

Only When We Know What Propaganda Is, And How It Works, Will We Be Free to Live Our Lives and Rule Ourselves, by Klark Barnes

Very few people realize how extensive the effort is to indoctrinate them. From Klark Barnes at earlking56.family.blog:

For those of us who study propaganda critically, and seek to do this all-important work as public intellectuals, these last two years have been uniquely challenging, and even dangerous, forcing us into a painful double bind.

On the one hand, we have never had so much to work with, nor has there ever been a greater need for our peculiar expertise. Whereas in the “democratic” West, propaganda used to be most evident as an intensive episodic practice, flaring up in wartime, in political campaigns and following immense state crimes like JFK’s assassination, 9/11 and the subsequent anthrax attacks (among other national traumas engineered by governments), the propaganda blasting all of us non-stop today is no longer national, or merely multinational, but global; and the former intermittency of those most awful crises, with decades going by between one trauma and the next, has given way to a mind-numbing strategy of serial bombardment — one cataclysmic fuss after another (with, sometimes, one within another), as under openly totalitarian rule.]

Thus, throughout 2020 — Year One of the now-endless Covid crisis — we were inescapably suffused with terror of “the virus,” and thereby bullied into locking down (despite the scientific fact that lockdowns do more harm than good), while also masking all the time, and everywhere, and “social-distancing” as well (despite the scientific fact that neither practice “slows the spread” of any respiratory virus). While masking was imposed, ostensibly, to make us less afraid of Covid-19, it only made us more afraid of one another, and so compounded that disabling fear with a ferocious anger at all those not wearing masks (despite the scientific fact that masks would not prevent transmission of “the virus” even if the entire global population wore them all the time).

The New Bogeyman, by Eric Peters

Meet the new bogeyman, same as the old bogeyman. From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:

The old bogeyman – “COVID” – is getting tired. It’s time for a new bogeyman, “climate change.”

Does anyone remember the older bogeyman – Islamofascism?

Of course, it’s always the same bogeyman – in that all of them are based on fiction used to terrify people into submission. The three threes, if you like. It’s the old witch doctor formula: Do as we tell you or the sky will fall! Accompanied – in the past – by the shaking of a dead chicken in the audience’s face.

Today, accompanies by assertions just as ludicrous.

Wearing a “mask” will keep you safe. Taking a “vaccine” will keep you alive. Assuming it doesn’t kill you first.

The “COVID” mass terror was based on the fiction that an airborne plague was afoot, dangerous to all – when in fact it was lethal to very few. That fact was deliberately suppressed, in order to create the mass terror that was used to justify the measures imposed upon the masses, which they otherwise would never have accepted.
