Sunetra Gupta of The Great Barrington Declaration Responds to Criticism.

 This woman, besides being the pinnacle of her profession, has a lot of class.

She deviates from the COVID!! hysteria and calmly states her position: that schools and other institutions should be open because Herd Immunity protects society better than any other anti-viral method.

Herd Immunity was standard operating procedure before COVID-19, but since it showed up, generations of science has somehow been erased and rendered inapplicable.  Strange.

She's following the science.  Interestingly, it isn't the science of certain politicians or Corporate Media outlets, so people are coming after her.  Think about this for a minute. She is regarded as one of the top 3 epidemiologists in the world, she's a professor at Oxford, and she has a track record of success going back many years.

But she isn't 'following the science!' of many SJW Woke politicians or media outlets, therefore she's being criticized by ankle biters.

Before I go off the rails, I'll let you hear her speak for herself.  She's a fantastically elegant woman with intelligence and class.  In other words, she's my polar opposite.  One wonders why she isn't being feted by the higher ups.  Perhaps the Madness of Crowds is an even stronger force than even I imagined.

From YouTube:

Co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration Professor Sunetra Gupta has said a new study that suggests coronavirus immunity could only last a few months has not changed her mind on herd immunity. 

Research from Imperial College London showed immunity was “waning quite rapidly”, which could lead to an increased risk of reinfection. Speaking with talkRADIO's Ian Collins, Professor Gupta said scientists with differing views had been staging "ad hominem attacks" over the issue. 

"I do think that universities should actually come up with a set of regulations and recommendations for how people should behave on platforms such as Twitter.

LaptopGate - News and Hypocrisy Before the Election

This was from Wednesday October 28th - as news was dropping about the Laptop From Hell. The next day Greenwald resigned from The Intercept, and the pre election craziness has gone into hyperdrive. All signs point to a Trumpslide 2020. Much of the info here is the cause. "They" never seem to understand the lives of real people. As intellectually limited as the American Herd is, "they" are so far removed from regular people they don't see what's coming.

But What Did the Metrics Say to Do - Lose?

We've been hearing a lot about the metrics in sports.

Like many initially successful trends, people have gone completely off the rails since the good old days of Bill James metrics. Because nobody knows how to hold back anymore, and everybody's feet are pounding on the gas pedal, the metrics clowns who run the Tampa Bay Rays decided to let a spreadsheet and an algorithm cost them the World Series 

This is genuinely funny. 

Blake Snell is a mid 90s throwing left handed strikeout artist. He hadn't even gone six innings but had struck out nine. The guy was out there dealing. What did the Tampa Bay Rays management do? They decided to pull Snell from the game.

The reason why this is completely ridiculous is because the metrics people are always talking about how traditional baseball traditional rules and traditional stats aren't worth anything. All they ever talk about are the metrics. Now the metrics cost them the World Series. What they should have done was simply watched the game in front of them realized they had a modern day Sandy Koufax out there and let him pitch a complete game - mowing guys down, striking out twelve during a 130 pitch complete game world series win.

But no. 

As usual the metrics said to take Snell out and let a reliever come in, and that would give them the best chance of winning the game. Despite the fact that all you needed was a pair of eyes to see what was going on, you could have changed the course of the franchise and let what was going on in front of you dictate how to handle game seven of the World Series. Instead, they let an algorithm control what they were doing and could not deviate from the spreadsheet, and the metrics, which are supposedly the most amazing tool to win games. 

The Moneyball guys realized that in a short series the metrics were pretty much useless. We've known this since Moneyball came out over 15 years ago. Bill James, the godfather of metrics, had a lot of common sense in him and explained to everybody that the metrics worked out better and worked well in a long season. The Rays showed this in their season winning many more games with a roster of names nobody knows. Not only did they win the the American League they destroyed the rest of the division. They even soundly beat the monster payroll New York Yankees.

So here is a case of people not being able to see the forest from the trees. They have a young left handed pitcher striking out guys like crazy at the height of his powers and they pull him out of the game. That is completely unforgivable and a lesson to everybody out there to not completely adhere to something especially when you see with your own eyes what's going on. The Rays learned a very harsh lesson by being slaves to the metrics. Sometimes you need a little bit of flexibility an the wherewithal and depth of thought to look at some of the traditional ways of doing things from the old days.

The metrics guys are always laughing at people who look at traditional stats like "wins".  Well, when they needed a "win", instead of going for it, they went for the metrics. Why focus on silly things like 'wins' when you can drool over BABIP??!!

Breaking: Glenn Greenwald Resigns from the Intercept

Glenn Greenwald co-founded The Intercept.  

The editors there wouldn't let him publish material that was damaging to Joe Biden.  The editors showed that they are partisan cowards, unworthy of being called journalists.  They will go down in history as not only quislings, but spineless hacks.

Greenwald, no matter what happens after this, will go down in history as a hero.  He understands the idea of a legacy.  His editors do not.

Here is Greenwald, at his finest, in the best paragraph of his resignation notice on Substack:

"But the pathologies, illiberalism, and repressive mentality that led to the bizarre spectacle of my being censored by my own media outlet are ones that are by no means unique to The Intercept. These are the viruses that have contaminated virtually every mainstream center-left political organization, academic institution, and newsroom. I began writing about politics fifteen years ago with the goal of combatting media propaganda and repression, and — regardless of the risks involved — simply cannot accept any situation, no matter how secure or lucrative, that forces me to submit my journalism and right of free expression to its suffocating constraints and dogmatic dictates."

Greenwald, like Matt Taibbi, has gone off on his own.  They have seen the nature of Corporate Media.  Even Greenwald called the SJW / WOKE movement a "virus".

If you're into journalism, and you want a legacy, then look at Greenwald's work.  If you're wanting to be invisible, and to go down in history as a weak thoughtless turd, look at his editors.

Your call.

Brendan O'Neill: I will break the "rule of six" on Christmas Day

 Alan Moore would be darkly proud of his compatriots in the UK.  Moore wrote dystopian comic books in the 1980's about how oppressive the British government would be, and how it would monitor and spy on everyone to see that they were doing as they're told.  Pick up a copy of "V for Vendetta" to see current day Britain predicted back in 1981.

Brendan O'Neill is a heretic who won't do as he's told.  Apparently the British government has ruled that families can't gather in groups bigger than 6 on Christmas.  O'Neill, who is one of my favorite Professional Dissenters, has said that he will not obey this nonsensical order for Christmas.

I agree with him.

Not only does it not make any sense, the same people who have put these rules in place have said NOTHING about the protests, looting and riots that took place this past May and June.  Nor will they ever say a bad word about them.  To them, this paradox makes sense.  Perhaps it is even .. 'following the science'.

If you treat the citizenry with contempt, what do you expect to get back?  I like it that people are pushing back against the idiotic and random diktats that are being thrown down on the population from the Elite Class.

In a way, it's good to see the Rulers come up with clownish rules like 'the rule of 6'.  The more they slam their feet on the gas pedal, the more people will check out of the system and the system will lose its illogical legitimacy.

From YouTube:

"Spiked Online editor Brendan O'Neill says he will break the "rule of six" on Christmas Day. 

"What kind of country have we become when (Victoria Derbyshire) has to issue a grovelling public Stalinist apology, simply for saying she wants to celebrate Christmas with her family?" "The idea that people should be forced to spend Christmas alone strikes me as absolutely horrifying". 

Would you break the “rule of six" to celebrate Christmas with your family?"

LaptopGate - The Power Elite Influence is Crumbling RN

The H. Biden laptop controversy is an amazing event.  It exposes many things.  The reaction to the story is the most amazing of all.  As we were taught as good leftists back in the day by Saul Alinsky: it isn't the action, it's the reaction that you have to watch.

This reaction to the story is out of this world amazing.  

  • No one from the Biden campaign is denying the veracity of the laptop, or anything in it.
  • The Corporate Media outlets are censoring like I've never seen.
  • Media / reporters true colors are getting exposed in real time.
  • A front-running presidential candidate suspended real world campaigning - in mid campaign.

The real story is the Corporate Press, which is now totally exposed as the enemy of the people. Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi have savagely attacked the MSM as only they can:

GG on Twitter throwing haymakers:


Matt Taibbi instantly came out with an article destroying the hypocrisy of the Corporate Weasels in the press.  He doesn't go hard enough - but it's a good one:

He's also on TWTR swatting away the court jesters who are paid to support the globalist corporatocracy.

I don't know how Taibbi and Greenwald have the strength to fight against the corporate globalists, but this incident has shown that they are left leaning people with integrity.

It has also shown not only the power of propaganda, but the Power Elite's commitment to any kind of behavior - no matter how deviant, as long as it benefits them.

Keep your eyes open.  We are learning a lot in class this election season for sure.

Animal Farm - 2020 Version

 Paul Joseph Watson introduces his latest video "Modernity" with this statement: 

"They do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude."


In this video, you'll watch many things.  The best imagery comes when he shows you how the elites expect you to live in the "New Normal", while they do things the way they wish. Here's a sample of the level of hypocrisy seen in this screenshot:


They will have you taking your mask off only between bites at a restaurant, while they live freely, openly violating the rules they have for you.

Watson is right - people love their servitude.  I was thinking about Mrs. Pelosi in the picture above while some old coot asked me if I had mask while I was in the basement laundry room.

I think I'll go back to Animal Farm this year with the 9th graders.  It's even more appropriate these days.

School Reopening Update - The Plan

 Here is what we've got in store for reopening my school district:

We are anxiously awaiting the gradual reopening of schools. Based on current infection rates, as of this update, we are proceeding with reopening plans for students who have selected the in person instruction option. If you have not responded to the survey you have been automatically assigned to the remote learning class roster.
  • Phase 1 will begin on November 16 for grades K-3 and programs for students with Autism and intellectual disabilities
  • Phase 2 will begin on November 30 for grades 4-8
  • Phase 3 will begin on December 14 for grades 9-12- Students in grades 9-12 will be split into two chorts in order to maintain social distancing.
Principals will be communicating with you to let you know which Cohort your child is in.

It is imperative that students understand that they must wear their masks at all times. For our younger learners, parents are advised to begin getting students accustomed to wearing face coverings for extended periods of time so that this will be a regular part of their daily habits by the time school resumes.

Please log on to the district website and visit on FAQ for more information.

----------------------------------------------------

The mask mandate has no chance.  Assuredly, it will be mostly ignored by the older students.  The younger children might be able to get 'accustomed' to wearing face coverings, but the older students will not.  When asked by a parent about students not complying with the mask mandates, the superintendent
said that "there will be varying levels of conversation" with those students.

I'll translate: "We can't kick students out for not wearing masks, therefore we'll give them repeated and stern talking tos about putting on a mask".

General teenage rebelliousness + a lax policy = an ignored rule.

What is notable about our district is that our superintendent had a reopening plan that originally had the students coming back in September.  To use old terminology, 'the switchboard lit up' when he spoke to parents about it.  They were furious that he would let the children come back and go to their deaths (!) in school.  They used that kind of rhetoric.  The parents were so vociferous and angry, and so forceful during a Facebook live session in early September, that the superintendent went to an all digital plan by the end of that day.

What people don't realize is that the Corporate Press has frightened the Herd so badly that it seems to think that the risk level is so high that children are in danger of dying of The Novel Coronavirus.

They aren't.

Here are the numbers from NY State, by day, of deaths with the coronavirus for the past 5 weeks:


In a state with almost 20 million people, there is NO RISK to anyone, let alone school age children.

There's a comment at the end of the above linked article that distills the ignorance and fear that the typical school or union official has about The Novel Coronavirus and its risk:

"I asked Pringle why her union, like others, had put such emphasis on the virus’s health risks to children, and she said, “When we look at the data and they say only .1% of kids will contract it and get seriously ill and die, that’s actually around 50,000 children.” I noted that the number of children known to have died of COVID-19 nationwide was around 100. She said her estimate was what could happen if kids did go back to school."

Not only are our Rulers able to snooker and manipulate the Herd like you see above, the masses, for whom I have an ever growing contempt, have completely forgotten everything from wwaaaaayyyy back in June 2020:


That's from June 9th in Paris.

Here's one from the same time in Austin TX:


You don't have to do a Where's Waldo to find people in the crowd with no masks.  Social distancing?  Yeah right.

The Hyper Coronatypes were silent then, when the numbers were worse.  The Corporate Press was glowing about how wonderful these gatherings were.  As everything lately seems to be about the 2020 election, I'll make it about that too: the pictures and charts above, as well as the linked articles, are why we'll see a Trumpslide in 2 weeks.  In NYC we still can't fill up a restaurant. Schools have to slowly re-populate, despite the now obvious harmful effects of the lockdown AND the pictures above.

Even the regular people are noticing.

What They Expect You to Believe

Adam Carolla was on Tucker Carlson’s show the other day and he mentioned that the CA governor and Fauci were talking about maintaining silly and hyper restrictive precautions. Even though the protests in June were going on when the numbers were worse - they had NO CRITICISM of those regarding CV19. 

In case you were wondering about why it’ll be a Trumpslide on the 3rd .... there’s another reason.https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1Ff46KZtSIkLDSsZ7v33RR0DLwku8sclN

What You Aren't Being Told About The Policing Crisis | Brandon Tatum

From Youtube: "Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Brandon Tatum (Co-Founder of Blexit & former police officer) about his concerns with the crisis in policing, the decline of proactive policing and the shocking lowering of standards to join law enforcement. He also shares the most extreme thing he learned in police academy."

This was filmed in October 2019.

1) What information did Brandon Tatum explain / speak about during this excerpt? At times, he seems to have predicted some of the effects from the tragic events of the Summer of 2020. Do you agree?

2) How did he deliver his points? Were they convincing?

3) What are some criticisms you have - positive or negative of his delivery and / or his message? Explain clearly please.

Campaign Ad: Black Lives Don't Matter To Democrats

 I put this in front of the Public Speaking class.  We are in the black neighborhood, an entrenched democratic voting area similar to the one in Baltimore in the video.  Here is the assignment.

-------------------

This election season has gotten pretty intense.

Kimberly Klacik is running for congress. She's running on the Republican ticket in an area that has voted Democrat for a long time. Normally, a Republican candidate would have no chance, and no one would ever hear of her.

This time might be different.

This campaign ad of hers went viral. It has almost a million views. I would like you to tell me why. What has she done here that has created so much buzz? Her profile has gone way up, and this is now a nationally known race. Think about the wording, the images, the target audience, and how the ad is put together.

From her channel:

"Democrats don’t want you to see this.

They’re scared that I’m exposing what life is like in Democrat run cities. That’s why I’m running for Congress Because All Black Lives Matter Baltimore Matters

And black people don’t have to vote Democra
t."

The Truth About Trump Getting Corona

This was an assignment for my 12 grade Public Speaking classes:

Paul Joseph Watson is one of the most prolific Youtubers over the last 10 years.

His videos routinely get between 500K and 1 million views. He has 1.85 million subscribers. I'm one of them

In this video he points out the absurd hypocrisy of people in the Hollywood - media Complex who vehemently dislike Donald Trump. In this era of Corona-Chan, Watson is one of the people who is able to point out the double standards, inanities, and outright nonsense put in front of regular people.

Please watch the video below and answer the following:

1) How is Watson's delivery arranged so that his point is put forth in a strong manner?

2) What visuals does he use to get his point across? Are they effective, in your opinion?

3) Periodically, he changes his voice, obviously poking fun at the person. Does this technique work?

4) Write a short personal response in reaction to PJW's video. Explain your thoughts on his presentation, particularly in today's internet / social media / memetastic world.

The Quincy Johnson Q(J) Interview

Right away I asked Quincy if he was the famous Q. He said no. I'm not sure I believe him. He checked in for the interview from his rig - ready to go and drop knowledge as he always does.

We covered a wide range of topics: the business of trucking, the upcoming election, the future of the USA, the wretchedness of the Corporate Media, and more!! 

Quincy is a Twitter Famous truck driver, and has previously appeared on Pete Quinones' "Free Man Beyond the Wall" podcast, as well a Hotep Jesus' podcast.

School Update - The Plan

These are the opening plans as of late September 2020. The mix of Corona!, the fear mongering by the Corporate Media, lack of bandwidth, and the usual teacher / admin battles are all playing out in ways that were previously unimaginable.

The Silent and Destructive Effects of Unnecessarily Closing Schools

 There will be many articles like this one as we move forward.

This isn't a good story.  In it you'll hear about how our most high risk students, in the worst neighborhoods, have had their lives and their educations obliterated by the lockdowns.

The authors are brave souls.  Why?  Because they explain that school age children are not at risk for Covid-19.  This means that closing schools down was not only unnecessary, but also incredibly destructive for school age children.  This is an opinion that I and a few others were talking about by late May 2020.  The data has never supported shutting down schools.

The responses we always got were always the same: "follow the SCIENCE!!"  "Flattenthecurve!!" "Covid is serious!!"  

People are easily led, and when their favorite corporate media source, or a politician tells them something, they listen and obey.  

This unwillingness to question has come at a high price:

"I have chosen to tell the story of Shemar’s remote-learning difficulties, with his family’s permission, because it was his plight that alerted me to the fact that remote learning was proving disastrous. As the spring went on, I grew increasingly distressed by the lack of public alarm over students like Shemar, who were sitting in countless dark rooms, safe from COVID-19, perhaps, but adrift and alone. Society’s attention to them has always been spotty, but they had at least been visible — one saw them on the way to school, in their blue or burgundy uniforms, or in the park and the playground afterward. Now they were behind closed doors, and so were we, with full license to turn inward. While we dutifully stayed home to flatten the curve, children like Shemar were invisible." (emphasis mine)

Children like Shemar weren't invisible at all. They were the ones who no longer had access to the breakfast and lunch programs.  Internet connectivity isn't an issue when you're an upper middle class person who secretly enjoys working from home.  While the author was dutifully staying home to flatten the curve, hundreds of thousands of at risk student were unnecessarily getting their lives and educations manhandled.  

Anyone with a dissenting view of the lockdowns was shouted down.  Anyone with a view that countered the government's was maligned and called a 'conspiracy theorist'.  

It's still going on.  As the amorphous term 'cases' is being used to justify lockdowns, the stultifyingly dense mayor of NYC is shutting down school in hot spots.  

Toward the end of the article, you'll see how ill informed, ignorant, and math deprived the 'leaders' of public schools can be.  This is from a big shot at the NEA:

"Becky Pringle, the president of the other national teachers’ union, the National Education Association, was also confident that parents now leaving the public schools for home schooling or private schools would return. “Our parents and communities still believe in our schools, that they are a foundation of democracy,” she said when we spoke on the second day of school in Baltimore. “I don’t think they’re going to abandon schools.” I asked Pringle why her union, like others, had put such emphasis on the virus’s health risks to children, and she said, “When we look at the data and they say only .1% of kids will contract it and get seriously ill and die, that’s actually around 50,000 children.” I noted that the number of children known to have died of COVID-19 nationwide was around 100. She said her estimate was what could happen if kids did go back to school."

Think about how stupid you have to be to hear that around 100 children nationwide have died of COVID, and then cling to the number of 50,000 'if children go back to school'.  

These are the people in high positions in the Education Industrial Complex.  They are destructive, and have no thoughts of their own.

We will see many more stories like this.  Few of them will reach the mainstream.  Soon you'll see sectors of the economy like the restaurant / food industry and contracting talked about.  This isn't going to end well, and it was all pointless hysteria.

It' Time to Stop the Lockdown Nonsense: The Great Barrington Declaration

As of this writing, more than 12 thousand scientists, doctors, and medical practitioners have signed a petition against coronavirus lockdown measures, urging that those not in the at risk category should be able to get on with their lives as normal, and that lockdown rules in both the US and UK are causing ‘irreparable damage’.

110,164 members of the general public have signed it as of this morning.

I'm one of them.

The lockdowns have been a complete disaster.  There's no evidence they did any good, and a lot of evidence they've been a huge mistake, particularly when considering school age children.

I can't explain it any better than the medical professionals do, so here is the Great Barrington Declaration:



The Great Barrington Declaration


As infectious disease epidemiologists and public health scientists we have grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the prevailing COVID-19 policies, and recommend an approach we call Focused Protection.

Coming from both the left and right, and around the world, we have devoted our careers to protecting people. Current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health. The results (to name a few) include lower childhood vaccination rates, worsening cardiovascular disease outcomes, fewer cancer screenings and deteriorating mental health – leading to greater excess mortality in years to come, with the working class and younger members of society carrying the heaviest burden. Keeping students out of school is a grave injustice.

Keeping these measures in place until a vaccine is available will cause irreparable damage, with the underprivileged disproportionately harmed.

Fortunately, our understanding of the virus is growing. We know that vulnerability to death from COVID-19 is more than a thousand-fold higher in the old and infirm than the young. Indeed, for children, COVID-19 is less dangerous than many other harms, including influenza.

As immunity builds in the population, the risk of infection to all – including the vulnerable – falls. We know that all populations will eventually reach herd immunity – i.e. the point at which the rate of new infections is stable – and that this can be assisted by (but is not dependent upon) a vaccine. Our goal should therefore be to minimize mortality and social harm until we reach herd immunity.

The most compassionate approach that balances the risks and benefits of reaching herd immunity, is to allow those who are at minimal risk of death to live their lives normally to build up immunity to the virus through natural infection, while better protecting those who are at highest risk. We call this Focused Protection.

Adopting measures to protect the vulnerable should be the central aim of public health responses to COVID-19. By way of example, nursing homes should use staff with acquired immunity and perform frequent PCR testing of other staff and all visitors. Staff rotation should be minimized. Retired people living at home should have groceries and other essentials delivered to their home. When possible, they should meet family members outside rather than inside. A comprehensive and detailed list of measures, including approaches to multi-generational households, can be implemented, and is well within the scope and capability of public health professionals.

Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal. Simple hygiene measures, such as hand washing and staying home when sick should be practiced by everyone to reduce the herd immunity threshold. Schools and universities should be open for in-person teaching. Extracurricular activities, such as sports, should be resumed. Young low-risk adults should work normally, rather than from home. Restaurants and other businesses should open. Arts, music, sport and other cultural activities should resume. People who are more at risk may participate if they wish, while society as a whole enjoys the protection conferred upon the vulnerable by those who have built up herd immunity.

On October 4, 2020, this declaration was authored and signed in Great Barrington, United States, by:


  • Dr. Martin Kulldorff, professor of medicine at Harvard University, a biostatistician, and epidemiologist with expertise in detecting and monitoring of infectious disease outbreaks and vaccine safety evaluations.
  • Dr. Sunetra Gupta, professor at Oxford University, an epidemiologist with expertise in immunology, vaccine development, and mathematical modeling of infectious diseases.
  • Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, professor at Stanford University Medical School, a physician, epidemiologist, health economist, and public health policy expert focusing on infectious diseases and vulnerable populations.
You can watch them talk about the Declaration here:

15 Million Dead of COVID - Prediction

 This was from March.

This is the expert scientific view in March 2020.  They're talking about deaths:

"In the low-severity model — or best-case scenario of the seven — ANU researchers estimate a global GDP loss of $2.4 trillion, with an estimated death toll of 15 million."

This was the 'low severity model', meaning that the BEST CASE scenario the experts were predicting was 15 million dead.

  • Is anyone holding them accountable?
  • Are we following the 'science' when we call them out?
  • Because we don't trust them now, do you finally understand why?
  • Realize that when this came out the God Fauci was saying to not wear a mask.

This is why they're talking about 'cases' and testing like crazy.  They changed the narrative right in front of everyone.  It seems like one giant compliance test, and many people, particularly NYC liberals, are totally falling for it.  Post like this make them angry.  

15 million.  And they're still saying 'follow the science'.  

Unbelievable.


Pray For Literally Hitler

Not long after Trump was elected the usual suspects started pushing for more gun control.  The Progressive Left seemed to not understand that it's the government who will come around and collect the guns.  They were doing this after telling us for months that DJT was 'literally Hitler".

If Orange Man Bad is 'literally Hitler', why would we give him our guns?  This paradox created a fantastic public service message, one that explained why we should 'give our guns to Hitler':


It looks like these people are at it again.  

Corona-Chan visited the Trump White House, and it meant that we were all to pray for him.  Even the Corporate Press, atheists and Prometheans all, told us to pray for the fascist dictator.

Glenn Greenwald caught the paradox immediately:


GG writes a great piece about all the horrid ways the wholly fraudulent Corporate Press has described Trump.  The best part of the article is Greenwald's description of Russia!! hoaxer Rachel Maddow and her treacly call to prayer (as if she's ever prayed) for Trump.

Of course it doesn't make any sense.  None of today's actions by our rulers makes sense.  Greenwald offers this explanation:

"There are a few potential explanations that may account for this extremely unusual and confounding behavior of praying for, rather than against, the well-being of a fascist dictator. Perhaps Democratic leaders are simply pretending to be hoping for Trump’s well-being for political purposes while secretly hoping that he suffers and dies. Or perhaps national Democratic politicians have ascended to a state of spiritual elevation rarely seen in modern political history, in which they are capable of praying for even those they most dislike, including ones they believe are imposing fascism on their nation? Or perhaps, maybe more likely, Democratic leaders do not really believe the things they have spent four years saying about Trump and, like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney before him, are applying such labels of historic evil to him for political advantage but still see him as one of them, whom they intend to rehabilitate and honor once he is out of power."

The underlined part is emphasized by me.  They don't believe any of it.  It's just a power grab.  All of it.  The Corona stuff as well.  It's why you see BLM riots, without masks or social distance seen as ok.  It's why Nancy Pelosi and Lori Lightfoot can get a haircut and you can't.  It's why you can get Amazon packages in the mail, buy lawn furniture at Target, but not go inside a restaurant in NYC - you'll get sick from the last one don't you understand?

It's all a show, it's all fake. This is simply a power grab by people of mediocre intellect, who can't think more than a few days ahead.

Greenwald can't quite say it this way.  But I can.

Based Coinbase

 I saw this on Vox Day's blog.  It's a great story:

The CEO of Coinbase will not bend the knee.


"Woke capital is the dominant ideology of America’s corporate and media elites. Seemingly every major corporation in America has either actively embraced or paid obedient lip service to the left’s rhetoric supporting Black Lives Matter and Antifa, including false narratives such as “systemic racism.” Neutrality is simply not an option, as evidenced by the mob’s favorite slogan “silence is violence.” That is why woke capital is furious about and terrified of Coinbase, a cryptocurrency tech startup whose CEO Brian Armstrong openly defied the woke totalitarianism corporate America has shoved down the throats of its employees and customers alike."

Naturally, the reaction is severe.  They're calling the guy all sorts of names, and there's mention of a Bloomberg article where the SJW employees are wailing about being 'muzzled'.

This guy is doing the only rational thing.  He's getting rid of them.  He's actually paying them 6 months pay for them to go away.

In Vox Day's Corporate Cancer, he recommends getting rid of the HR and if necessary, the advertising departments, as SJW's congregate in the dead weight areas of a company where talent is unnecessary.

$1000 Fine for No Mask - DiBlah Shows His True Colors

One of the things we've seen during the Corona-Chan era is the rise of the mediocre politician.  Not even reaching mediocre, the mayor of NYC has decided that the areas where cases of Covid are rising are places where you can get fined for .... not wearing a mask.

What does not enter into the discussion is that, during the summer, you could have a BLM protest riot and if you weren't wearing a mask or social distancing, well, that was just fine.

Back then, the numbers were much worse.  But hey, it fit the agenda and the repellent media was on board too. Now, in a state with 19.45 million people, there have been an average of 6 people dying with Covid each day in NY.  It's been that way for 7 weeks.  

I keep hearing that people "aren't following the science".  This has become a trope.  It's become quite religious in a way.  "The Science" is simply a cloddish ploy to try to get opinions other than those of the Corporate Media and the Elites out of the way. 6 out of 19.45 million means there is no risk.  

"You're not following the math."  

When the breakup of the USA happens in 2033, this kind of nonsense will be seen as part of the beginning of the end.
