Spike Attacks Neurons by WALTER M CHESNUT
It has been well established that the Spike Protein causes leukocytes to attack the endothelium via inflammation.
The Spike Protein acts as a “Flare” causing infiltration of leukocytes via complement activation to attack infected tissue.
in essence, “calling the troops” to attack the Endothelium.
the EXACT same mechanism is occurring in the Brain and the EXACT same mechanism is causing the body to ATTACK ITS OWN NEURONS.
Dutch One-World Communitarianism by Jamie Blackett
Dutch farmers are turning against the EU—and their own prime minister—in a bid to fight for their most basic liberties.
EU climate laws have led the Dutch government to commit to reducing nitrogen emissions by 50 percent by 2030. To achieve this, the government has threatened to withdraw farmers’ licenses to farm because of their high nitrogen emissions, mainly stemming from cow dung and fertilizers. Without their licenses, farmers won’t be able to borrow money, putting many in financial peril. Farmers feel they are being scapegoated even though they farm efficiently. Nitrogen emissions in the Netherlands have fallen 50 percent since 1990—while airlines and other emitters show little restraint in the face of climate change.
In November 2022, the protests intensified when the Dutch government threatened 3,000 farms, around a third of the country’s total, with a European-style version of eminent domain, a plan backed financially by the EU. If the farmers accept the $1.61 billion being offered for their land (around 20 percent over agricultural value, but suspiciously below development value), they will be forbidden from farming anywhere in the European Union again. The policy would clear them off land that in many cases they have held for generations, and sever their links to agriculture forever.
The mainstream media has covered the conflict in a predictable way, pushing the narrative of a tenacious government taking urgent and necessary steps to combat climate change and biodiversity loss. The alternate story, one told on social media and independent channels, such as the UK’s GB News, is that this is “climate communism,”
UF Group Intimidation by JON RAPPOPORT
What is happening at the U of Florida gives you a picture of an end-game. It’s not enough for white people to admit some level of guilt they’re not even guilty of. It’s not enough to bow down like ridiculous asses and ask for forgiveness from a bunch of criminals. No. The program demands a confession that “white racism” is beyond the ability of white people to shed. It’s baked in. Therefore, surrender to a higher power. Guess who that power is.
Tyrants form collectives. It hardly matters what the “subject matter” is. The whole point is subjugation.
People don’t rise up and squash the criminals. They wait. And then one day it’s too late.
The criminals rely on The Group. The force of The Group. Not the ideas. Not the philosophy. Not the logic. Not on anything sensible. The thoughts the criminals spout and the theories—those are just the cover. The root is group intimidation. The calculation is: “We have enough force to overwhelm the individual.”
It’s war.
Road To Serfdom by EL GATO MALO
from 9/11 to 3/16 (the date of 15 days to slow the spread) these attacks and threats are used to suspend and supersede rights and choice. and these powers are never given back. this understate grows in power, reach, and scope.
it’s an inherent emergent property of the fear response. you get people while they are scared and you push them off their spot. then you never let them back and build new systems and structures to fill and dominate the space where their freedoms were.
they seek not only to dominate information flow and censor, but to actually “prebunk” claims, which is to say, get out in front of news and try to head it off and discredit it before it comes out.
the bureaucracy of the permanent state will always become its own chief constituent and when the intelligence agencies that are supposed to be the eyes and ears of government become self-serving and corrupt, there is no way out of this hall of mirrors.
one of the great the great political issues of our time will be the dismantling of these agencies. until we do, the rest is just set dressing on the road to serfdom. they have become antithetical to a free people and a free republic
Long March Through Marxists by DUPONT LAJOIE
the Marxist philosopher György Lukács (1885–1971) reached the…conclusion…Western culture had to be destroyed before a communist revolution could succeed.
In 1919, during the short-lived Hungarian communist state (21 March 1919 to 1 August 1919), Lukács was made People’s Commissar for Education and Culture. He introduced radical sex education courses in schools, teaching about sexual intercourse, the archaic nature of the bourgeois family, the outdatedness of monogamy, and how religion deprives humanity of pleasure.
Marcuse claimed that children, specifically, are inherently polymorphic perverts: they uncover sexual gratification in various areas of their bodies and ignore the rules that adults view as perversion. Subsequently, he declared that education suppresses the polymorphic possibilities of sexual satisfaction and that eliminating any oppressive sexual constraint would liberate the humanities.
teachers…gradually abandoned the classical authors deemed problematic in favor of authors coming from minority groups and syllabi such as black history, feminism, and gender studies.
Hiding Flu by MARTIN NEIL, NORMAN FENTON, JONATHAN ENGLER & NICK HUDSON
The UK FluDetector system, which uses machine learning to track flu using Google Trends data, reported that flu disappeared in 2020/21. This is contradicted by Google’s own data and UKHSA reports, both of which report a clear signal for flu in the UK in 2020/21.
UK FluSurvey system tracked flu incidence only until week 20 of 2020 and never updated this data. They then abandoned flu tracking until January 2021 when they announced that the flu season had now restarted, after supposedly witnessing the near eradication of flu in the preceding year.
In response to an FOI about flu in 2020 the ONS obfuscated its answer by using a different death code ‘respiratory disease’ rather than flu for the period up to May 2020 and may have done so to hide the true deaths that should have been attributed to flu.
The Road To Hell by JUSTIN HART
Hand sanitizer was seen as the modern-day protective talisman in the early stages of the pandemic, with sales spiking a staggering 470% in the first week of March 2020 alone. Under usual circumstances, stringent FDA regulations monitor hand sanitizer manufacturing, but the unprecedented scenario led to a relaxation of these rules.
Enter ArtNaturals, a beauty company turned pandemic hand sanitizer supplier based in Carson. A seemingly innocuous decision to store thousands of bottles in unmarked warehouses next to a mobile home park became a ticking time bomb. On September 30, 2021, disaster struck when a fire erupted in one of these warehouses. Fueled by the highly flammable ethanol-based sanitizer, the fire blazed fiercely for 17 grueling hours, requiring the efforts of 200 firefighters to extinguish.
Investigators discovered alarming levels of pollutants such as benzene, methanol, and ethanol in the channel, tracing it back to the ArtNaturals warehouse fire. Residents had been suffering from symptoms like headaches, dizziness, nausea, coughing, and difficulty breathing
Seasonal Virus Or Pandemic by CARL HENEGHAN & TOM JEFFERSON
In this current pandemic, the age structure of those most affected reveals a tension between whether COVID-19 is operating more like a seasonal viral effect or is similar in its effect to previous pandemics.
The data support the theory that the current epidemic is a late seasonal effect in the Northern Hemisphere on the back of a mild ILI season. The age structure of those most affected does not fit the evidence from previous pandemics.
The outbreak does, however, fit with the WHO’s definition of a Pandemic. This definition does not help explain the age structure of those most affected and how this differs from that of seasonal outbreaks. The definition of a pandemic remains elusive.
Nothing Progressive About Reparations by KARL MILLER
There is nothing 'progressive' about forcing people who are not slave owners to pay people who were never slaves reparations for slavery.
Millions of black immigrants from places that had slavery and people of all colors who experience atrocities that no American-born person alive ever experienced, still strive to come to America. On average these immigrants including blacks exceed natural-born Americans including whites in income upward mobility.
These racial grievance facilitators try to enforce mental slavery on many black Americans that they are still under bondages that devoid them of the liberties to succeed and move upward unless.....these facilitators are empowered to redistribute wealth and resources from others to 'save' black Americans.
Reduced Enthusiasm For Vaxes by EUGYPPIUS
It’s strange indeed that enthusiasm for these SaFE aNd EfFeCtIvE vaccines should have plummeted in precise inverse correlation to public experience with them. You’d almost think that the more the vaccinators were allowed to vaccinate, the more everybody decided the vaccines weren’t for them after all. This is hardly the response you’d expect to such miraculous, life-saving side effect-free products.
“In Germany, by the end of March 2023, around 83 million Covid-19 vaccine doses expired and were thrown away by with the federal government alone.”
The 83 million figure represents a floor; nobody actually knows or is all that eager to tabulate how many doses have been thrown away.
Unstoppability Of Mass Migration by ANDREW SULLIVAN
The foreign-born population is now almost 50 million people — with about three million added since the beginning of 2021 when Biden took office. Next year, it’s likely the proportion of Americans born in another country will be the highest ever — surpassing the records set in 1890 and 1910.
By the end of his first term, Biden will be presiding over the highest number and highest proportion of foreign-born Americans in the entire history of the republic.
About 20 percent of the UK workforce is now foreign-born — higher than in the US.
Some on the left have argued that the GOP and the Tories never had any sincere intention of restricting mass immigration in the first place
Or maybe we are living in a different age in which the mass movement of people from the global south to the north is just beginning, no government will be able to stop it
Or, of course, we could be living on the precipice of something much worse — a reactionary lurch toward authoritarianism fueled by native replacement and resentment.
it’s as if the left is almost testing the conditions for a far-right revolt.
Garlic Reduces Covid & Flu by WALTER M CHESNUT
The type of garlic has not been disclosed. All that has been revealed is that it is grown in a small farming town south of Mildura. The results, however, are anything far from small.
“We found one of AGP’s products could reduce the infectious titre of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza by 3-log-fold (99.9 per cent). We barely detected any remaining virus genome, indicating nearly complete virucidal activity.”
garlic prevents the virus from taking its amino chain and breaking it up into useful protein to create new viruses. Think of it as not allowing molten steel to be formed into parts of a car frame. The molten steel alone is, obviously, quite useless to make a car.
High Concentrations Of IgG4 by BRIAN MOWREY
The authors set their monkeys up with a normal primary course of the human Moderna Covid vaccine, and 17 weeks after the first dose, boost with either a 3rd dose of Moderna or a Novavax for the original spike or the Omicron BA.1 spike.
with the astonishing finding that IgG4 comes to dominate all anti-spike IgG after a third dose with either Moderna or a switch to Novavax
Extreme IgG4 conversion doesn’t appear to interfere with suppression of viral replication, and doesn’t seem to lead to any remarkable enhancement of inflammation in the lungs.
Vaxed Vets Did Worse by IGOR CHUDOV
The study is very straightforward: it looked at 1,459 veterans receiving Merck’s Molnupiravir and compared them with 63,281 veterans NOT receiving it. Its objective was to see if Molnupiravir was helpful (drumroll, it was not). The period covered was from Jan 1 to August 21, 2022.
The study has the breakdown of the Molnupiravir group and the standard-treatment group by vaccination status.
Such a breakdown allows us to check which veterans did better: the COVID-vaccinated or the unvaccinated.
The category in the above table with the least hospitalizations and deaths is the veterans who refused COVID vaccines and remained unvaccinated. Those had only 15.86 veterans per 1,000 hospitalized or dead. The more vaccines the veterans received, the worse their outcome: double-dosed veterans had 24.90 hospitalizations/deaths per thousand and boosted veterans had 27 hospitalizations per thousand.
Debunking Viki Male by DR AH KAHN SYED
Every paper in Viki's collection that relates to the miscarriage risk following COVID vaccines is compromised by undeclared conflicts of interest, declared conflicts of interest, confounders, bias or unverifiable data. There is not a single randomised trial or a single retrospective study of value for which the data can be verified. In short, Viki's papers are junk. Every last one.
Despite the pomp and bravado, there is not ONE randomised controlled trial nor a prospective cohort study comparing vaccinated vs unvaccinated women in pregnancy. This was absolutely by design. There is no reason that this could not have been arranged, and if you find the studies in this article confusing - it's intentional. Why? Because the pharma companies do not want those groups compared.
Vaccines & Autism by FABIAN SPIEKER
Changes in the proportion of children who received all recommended vaccines in the first two years of their lives (lag: 6 years) and changes in the prevalence of autism or speech/language impairment among 8 year old children are positively correlated across U.S. states
Every percentage point increase in vaccination rates of 2 year olds between 1995 and 2001 was associated with an increase of 0.035 (95% CI: 0.014-0.057) percentage points in the rates of autism or speech impairment disorders among 8 year olds between 2001 and 2007.
The Permanent Bureaucracy Apparatus by EL GATO MALO
the disgraceful security theater of our security state for so long used to manipulate and destabilize politics and elections abroad has been turned inward and the scope has become near unlimited.
this was not “the russians.” it was us. our own security states turned on us, manipulated us, and tried to prevent us from speaking our minds or seeing the truth.
this was not some exception. this was seemingly everywhere and it looks like perhaps we have just enough freedom left from the freedom of information acts to let us pry some of this activity out into the light where it can be seen.
these “units” may get justified using health or climate, but they are primarily about something else altogether.
these are intelligence agencies rigging domestic elections just as they have done in so many foreign countries.
i am increasingly starting to wonder about the extent to which the covid and biosecurity issues here were merely incidental as part of a bigger push that had to do with making sure the “right sort” of governments are put in place all over the west.
it's becoming less and less important who gets elected because most of the real durable power has moved into the permanent state of bureaucracy and security apparatus which has become a vast unelected constituency unto itself.
Watts Vs DoD by SASHA LATYPOVA
Finally a case that does not bark up the “Pfizer-Pfizer-Pfizer” diversion tree, but goes for the head of the Monster via its important vital organ! The DOD and Austin (also Gen Perna who was formally COO of OWS) directed pharma to produce weapons whether the executives and underlings understood it or not is somewhat irrelevant, they were commandeered under the Defense Production Act.
The complaint is very well drafted, so that DOD’s responses would have to address the dual-use questions: is is a weapon or a medicine? How would one know?
This lawsuit has the potential to bring to light the "covered countermeasure" products: EUA authorized vs BLA licensed, legally distinct but biologically the same class of unregulated, undisclosed-to-recipients toxic compounds. In addition, the DOD role as a "covered person" should be examined: were they just "directing" the process vs actually being part of the manufacturing and distributing entities?
The case is being funded by the Children’s Health Defense
Audubon Cancels Audubon by Adam Popescu
Audubon himself, who lived from 1785 to 1851, and owned at least nine black slaves
“Simply to say he was a man of his time and bore no responsibility on slavery is historically and intellectually a mistake,” Nobles asserts.
Now, some Audubon birders want the national society’s name changed. They believe a rebrand will help conservation because more people of all races will be attracted to the cause
the task force’s internal report recommended a name change. And yet—in a shock move—the board voted against it.
Almdale says the whole controversy is overblown. “They want to change the name of that bird or of Audubon simply because they don’t like that person. That’s a stupid reason to change a name,”
The Sierra Club, which was founded in 1892 and has 3.8 million members, making it one of the nation’s biggest conservation groups, was roiled by an internal rebellion in 2020 over claims its founder John Muir was a racist.
mRNA Transcribing In The Nucleus by ANANDAMIDE
Will the dsDNA contaminants ever make it to the nuclease? About 1/40th of them will contain an SV40 promoter with a nuclear localization signal. The dsDNA isn’t all SV40 DNA. It’s 7,810bp of sequence for Pfizer. If the dsDNA is ~200bp in size The SV40 region is just ~1/40th of the dsDNA in the contamination.
But Dr. Bhakdi pointed out something I hadn’t considered. During cell division the nucleus disassembles exposing the nuclear genome to the cytoplasm and transcription is still active during this time window. Most genome integrations occur in regions being actively transcribed. This would imply all fragments of the 7,810bp plasmid DNA is on the table for integration.
Pharma will clean this up or change the regs (which ever is cheaper).
Same is true with the Spike protein. They are already publishing papers swapping spike for nucleocapsid (also has amyloidagenic sequences). It’s very likely that they will perform this swap before any humility or reflection is taken on the delivery platform.
Transfecting this many epithelial cells with any peptide that labels it for destruction may produce many of the adverse events described. The trials have no LNP vehicle controls.
