Trans Is The New BLM by Celia Farber
I searched on government funding for LGBTQ, and my suspicions were confirmed that many HIV/AIDS front groups have morphed into LGBTQ and are lined up at the new trough. In the year 2017 alone, (and that was 6 years ago) US foundation funding “to address LBGTQ” totaled $185.7 million.
In terms of the the LBGTQ Industrial Complex, I counted at least 164 organizations, and even more listed as LGBTQ Organizations and Conferences. Pharmaceutical company Abbvie made $726 on a single puberty blocker drug, Lupron, in 2018.
As I explained the other week, our “capitalist” system issues the revolutionary funding for the various revolutions. No need to think about “capitalism” vs “communism” anymore.
the portal, or gateway, for communist revolutionary takeover in the US will come, armed like Sandinista!, via the suddenly normalized fully armed and claiming murder-rights “Militant Trans Movement,” having eclipsed BLM
Immunity Ceiling Of Vax Lowering? by Brian Mowrey
there is a sudden surge of IgG4 appearing after the booster
This result is not reproduced in the group who started off with a vector vaccine (and then got an mRNA-based 3rd shot later)
Nor is it reproduced in the previously infected plus double-injected
post-booster blood with higher IgG4 wasn’t as good at prompting T Cells to kill cells in response to spike, vs. samples from the same donors after the 2nd dose
Is this a sign that the “capacity” or “ceiling” for cellular immune response to the spike protein is being lowered?
Transhumanists Vs Technocrats by Spartacus
Technocracy is, at its core, the notion that political problems should have technological solutions.
Once you start reengineering human beings and our germlines directly in order to improve society, however, you can never quite return back to the natural baseline. Those are permanent changes.
It seems like we’ve found a bit of a contradiction here. The transhumanists’ ideal augmented human sounds like some kind of super-intelligent, super-athletic, eternally youthful demigod, but the technocrats’ ideal augmented human sounds like an armless, legless meat-pod that coos gentle notes of supplication towards its masters.
Who gets to be a privileged member of the former group, and which unfortunate souls are taken and transformed against their will into the latter? This is the part that is never explained in any detail, probably because it would make a whole lot of people very reasonably incandescent with rage from their head down to their toes.
Gender Dysphoria Skyrocketed in 2014 by Dr. Peter McCullough
Dutch law changed in 2014 to allow treatment of gender dysphoria without gonadectomy. This appeared to be an accelerant allowing more parents to bring young children (< 10 years) forward for puberty halting treatment in order to intentionally give gender influencing (female or male) hormonal therapy.
the relatively sudden interest in Dutch transgender medicine in occurred not because of a secular change in a psychiatric disease, but rather was driven by laws and clinical protocols with public interest that followed in changing from one gender to another and the program has been off to the races ever since.
Does GreenTech Reduce CO2? by el gato malo
in real terms, US power prices fell 13% over 12 years while california’s rose 15%.
there’s your “green dream” price.
carbon intensity per kWh is slightly higher than in 2011 and has actually been rising for 5 years.
how can this be? well, it’s easy actually.
they count biomass as “renewable” despite its awful carbon output.
and wind and solar are highly variable. they need to be supplemented with fast spin capacity that can take up the slack when they fade. and that’s gas (in small, inefficient turbines) and oil.
Most People Went Along To Get Along by Mark Oshinskie
The Japanese say that “The nail that sticks up will be hammered down.”
Unfortunately, during Coronamania, most people hewed to some perceived center and sought comfort in the bosom of the crowd. Despite the obvious extremism and illogic of locking down/masking/testing/injecting everyone to “crush” a respiratory virus with a clearly limited risk profile, most people went along with society-wide “mitigation” because their peers, the media and ostensible experts endorsed these measures and because these measures seemed incremental and temporary.
But most people went along, largely because they feared others’ disapproval. And they thought that the majority was right, because, well, it was the majority.
Trump Hate Fueled International Conspiracy by Celia Farber
I was always very clear in my soul that this specter was dangerous. That the phenomenon of Trump loathing, was dangerous.
You didn’t have to “like” him or vote for him, but to partake in that MK Ultra loathing thing was a gateway to where we are now: In the trunk of the car, blindfolded.
Banana Republic is the wrong term, by the way. We don’t have bananas here. This is an international conspiracy in the works in earnest since the establishment of the Federal Reserve banking system to end nations, period, not just this one.
Trump loathing was the justification, psychological chance, and means by which to brick by brick take down the United States.
Anything, anything at all, to get rid of him. AND US.
This is how revolutionary elites operate. They are better at scapegoating for political benefit than any creatures that ever deserted their creator for his adversary. That’s what they do.
Rasmussen: Vax Deaths = COVID Deaths by Steve Kirsch
The polls show that the one thing in this country that both Democrats and Republicans agree on is that the vaccines are as deadly as COVID. That’s stunning.
We all predicted that the vaccine has killed about the same number of people as COVID, roughly over 500,000 Americans total over the two years 2021 and 2022
Grounder & Offit Soften On Jabs by Alex Berenson
Gounder offered the most tepid possible recommendation for further mRNA doses…Most people should not have boosters, even once a year, she said. She endorsed regular shots only for “immunocompromised people and people in nursing homes.”
The real tell there is “nursing homes.”
In mentioning them, Gounder was not suggesting that everyone over 65 - or even 85 - should get more shots. Nursing homes are effectively hospices for most residents.
But Gounder was not the only vaccine advocate quoted in the Times piece…Dr. Paul Offit.
But even more stunning than Offit’s rejection were the words he used:
“Given the lack of data, I don’t think it’s fair to say to people, ‘Inject yourself with a biological agent,’” said Dr. Paul Offit.
Fasting To Tread Long Vax & Long Covid by Walter M Chesnut
The Spike Protein of SARS-CoV-2 induces two phenomena which drive cells, and ultimately organs, into a state resembling the oldest old. These are Senescence and the induction of ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species).
we have a therapeutic which is very effective against both phenomena. It is one that is the free and universally accessible. This is the therapeutic of FASTING.
Far from being a cure-all, I believe the evidence demonstrates that adding fasting to a COVID, Long COVID and Spike Protein Injury protocol will prove very effective.
15-Days To Flatten AI? by Mark Changizi
Many super brilliant academic types are again in a panic. But rather than public health experts trying to save the world with their ingenious scheme, it’s comp-savvy experts trying to save us from the dangers of ChatGPT, demanding all AI labs put a pause on its development.
For how long?
Just six months.
the technology will empower billions of individuals. It’s an equalizer.
Put it on pause, and only governments will have access to the next versions — because don’t ever believe that governments will stop their development of it.
More Validation Of LNP Risks by Brian Mowrey
injecting mice, they show “off-target” expression in multiple tissues, i.e. systemic expression — the LNPs are getting all over the body, just like in Pfizer’s Study 185350.
When using different lipid formulations, post-intramuscular injection expression can also be shown to be systemic, or to instead be limited to the injection site. Stay-put LNPs are the ones with permanently positive lipids, while go-all-over LNPs only have ionizable lipids (like the Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccines).
All of which is not to say that designing an ionizable-only LNP injection that stays put is totally impossible; however, this appears to be a strong, built-in hazard
No Link Between Covid & Long Covid by Vinay Prasad
Long covid has no link to prior COVID19, instead, initial symptom severity (of whatever virus you get), loneliness and poor physical activity are linked to the “post covid conditions”
Fear-mongering about LongCOVID in kids is not justified b/c they will all get it anyway, and many will suffer symptoms of long covid, but the two have nothing to do with each other.
Breggin Vs Malone by Meryl Nass
psychiatrist Dr. Peter and his wife Ginger Breggin took offense to the term mass formation psychosis as used by pathologist Dr. Robert Malone, and took offense to the concept of mass formation as conceived by psychologist Dr. Mattias Desmet. It was said that Desmet was blaming the victims of mass psychosis and not the perpetrators.
a war started when Breggin began a review of Desmet’s book, and then pivoted to attack Malone for supporting Desmet.
Malone stood up for his friend, and then the cannonballs started flying. Breggin set up a website titled, Threats from the Desmet/Malone Mass Formations and Mass Psychosis
After asking the Breggins to cease and desist, Malone…filed suit against the Breggins as well as these others—for $25 million dollars. To win, he needs to show they libeled him. For the Breggins to win, they need to show they didn’t.
Considering Covid’s low fatality rate in Japan before the jabs, 882 experimental shots would’ve been excessive, let along 822 million.
In mid-2020, then Economic Revitalisation Minister Yasutoshi Nishiyama admitted in a subsequently deleted tweet that the government was committed to buying large amounts of whatever the vax makers were making and wasn’t going to be particularly picky about quality.
Trump Was Played by Ma Mu
It is well-known now that there was an incident in the Wuhan lab in September 2019. At Event 201, a few weeks later, it was circulated that Moderna was already working on an mRNA vaccine against Covid and that repurposed drugs should not be used to allow Emergency Use Authorization. So Trump was kept in the dark by his security and intelligence community for over six months. But finally, in March, they had to come clean.
And they must have convinced Trump that they not only had the answer to this new bio-weapon but that he could use this crisis to his advantage.
He abandoned his right instincts about the relative harmlessness of the virus and not only got spooked but saw a chance to use the crisis for his benefit. So he rapidly changed tack.
Viral Interference Hypothesis Is Weak by Mr Law, Health and Technology, Martin Neil, Jonathan Engler, Norman Fenton, &Nick Hudson
The disappearance of the flu supposedly rests on a well-accepted theory, called viral interference
The biological mechanisms for viral interference look plausible and have been around since the 1960s.
it is surely a huge stretch to suggest that something which appears to happen at an individual level can result in synchronized population-wide suppression of influenza globally, and it doesn't explain how it bounced back.
two experiments involving sequential infection of flu and SARS-CoV-2 in Syrian hamsters and ferrets but concluded that there was no detectable sign of viral interference
both viruses had some ability to interfere with each other but there is no evidence that it was predominately one way, favouring the dominance of SARS-CoV-2.
primary infection by SARS-CoV-2 did not affect the infection trajectory of RV or flus at all
in Spring 2020 there was up to a 10-times higher risk of death in people with a SARS-CoV-2 co-infection with flu.
There is so much PCR kit heterogeneity that it can be difficult to know which PCR test kits can be trusted and which cannot.
In the early part of the pandemic doctors were incentivised to diagnose SARS-CoV-2, where the symptoms are indistinguishable from flu, for symptoms which would have hitherto been attributed to Influenza-like-illnesses (ILIs).
by July 2020 the CDC approved the first multiplex (multi-virus) kits under EUA to detect both influenzas and SARS-CoV-2. After their near universal global roll-out flu disappeared over winter 2020/21. This may be a coincidence.
FDA’s Other mRNA Vaccine Trials by Dr. Robert Malone
Below is what are the search results for new vaccine products likely to be on the market and also, which, if any have the likelihood of being mandated and/or placed on the childhood vaccine schedule.
There are 13 completed mRNA vaccine trials that involve disease targets other than COVID-19. These clinical trials are for rabies (EU, Curevac), influenza (USA, Pfizer), metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (Germany, Curevac, Medimmune and others), pneumococcal infection (USA, Merck), hormonal refractory prostate cancer (Germany, Curevac), seasonal influenza ( 2 completed CTs - Moderna), Zika virus (USA Moderna, BARDA), Cytomegalovirus Infection (2 completed CTs - USA, Moderna), Metapneumovirus and Parainfluenza infection (USA, Moderna), advanced malignant melanoma (Oslo), prostate cancer (Oslo).
Fear Virus April 1, 2020 by Mattias Desmet
This crisis is primarily a psychological crisis - a massive breakthrough of an already latent fear in society. Anxiety is initially only very slightly caused by real problems… but it justifies itself by creating real problems.
We are already sensing these problems: on the political level, the rise of the dictatorial state, on the economic level, the recession and the bankruptcy of countless companies and self-employed persons, on the social level, a lasting impairment of the (physical) bond between people, on the psychological level even more anxiety and depression, and yes… physically, in the aftermath of the psychological and social stress, collapse of immunity and physical health.
Chinese Vax Doesn’t Work by Dr. Peter McCullough
For vaccination, the Chinese took a different approach with a large menu of products available. One of the most popular vaccines has been the Sinopharm inactivated or killed whole SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.
Wang et al report in JAMA that the Sinopharm had clinically useless rates (28.9%) of vaccine efficacy in the real world, with a negligible impact on spread of the virus in detailed case contact tracing results.
For a vaccine to be clinically viable it must have >50% vaccine efficacy over a duration of at least 12 months. Of individuals who spread infections, 157 individuals (23.0%) had 2 doses of vaccine and 526 individuals (77.0%) had 3 doses of vaccine. No protective outcome was detected beyond 90 days after the booster dose.
Decline Of Evidence Based Medicine by Vinay Prasad
EBM is a philosophy to make clinical decisions that prioritize the best available evidence over expert opinion, pathophysiologic reasoning, marketing and bluster.
A new generation of doctors has entered the scene, and they have hopelessly confused advocacy and evidence…They know how to ‘reform’ medical eduction and select applicants, but don’t consider that their proposals need some empirical testing. Their world-view constantly conflates morality and evidence— paralyzing real progress.
The appetite to call for better studies in medicine is lacking.
a future EBM— one that cares about truth— may wish to push beyond initial RCTs, demanding confirmatory ones
