The most surprising thing is how many of the supposedly "smartest people in the room" are surprised by all this.

Our "elites" are morons.

Are they surprised? I don't see much surprise, only silence. They do not care.

Bill de Blasio shut down Times Square on New Year's Eve to broadcast a private dance with his wife wearing a pedo mask. These people have nothing but contempt for the plebs.

I would say it's a coincidence since not all of the symbols in the pattern are triangles, but considering she wore it while flexing on the rabble by dancing in Time's Square after shutting it down, I wouldn't put it past them.

No need to be smart when a bunch of malicious assholes are willing to legitimize your rule through violence for a few crumbs.

These people would literally be nothing without a throng of compliant servants, but that tribal mentality to follow a chief runs strong.

The worst part about having a corrupt government is seeing how cheaply they were bought. Congress makes decisions that shift trillions of dollars, and they're willing to put their thumbs on the scale for what, a few million? Add up the net worth of every shady politician in Washington - would we be better off just bribing these people directly from the treasury on behalf of the nation?

There were some obvious mistakes made, such as Charles II, but I doubt aristocrats with experience managing livestock were unable to effectively manage their own genetic heritage through arranged marriages.

If someone is richer, more powerful, and more successful than you, they logically have something on you. Are they more physically fit? More attractive? Luckier? It might be luckier, but relying on luck alone you tend to lose in the end. Smarter? Maybe a combination of luckier and smart enough.

They're certainly not morons, though. Morons lose their power all too quickly. The simplest solution is not incompetence at every single level of elite power, that assumes far too many conveniences and coincidences as to how they are still "elite" after being morons for life.

Did you account for the fact that they are all in a big club together and they collude together to ensure that they are the only ones who sit at the top?

Like George Carlin said.

Nepotism is mainly why the current elites are in their position.

A moron threatens the inner circle's long-term power.

Morons don't stay in a club for long. Nepotism is part of luck, luck of your birth, but idiocy ruins even that level of luck. Loose ends are trimmed off. If you assume they're morons just because you can handwave away their position with "nepotism", you'll be sorely disappointed when the truth comes to light. They are at least as smart as yourself, likely more, and to assume ignorance when malice is possible is exactly what they'd want you to do.

You are misunderstanding my point.

I think they got their position via nepotism but they are entirely malicious in trying to keep it.

I don't think they are bumbling lucky fools like you assume my point to be.

I think they are evil assholes who are arrogant enough to do anything to keep their power.

The more "educated" people are the more ignorant they are.

People stopped developing mentally at that infantile stage where you read an article or hear a factoid and you suddenly think you know everything and are smarter than those around you.

We used to just pat these children on the head, say good job and ignore them. These days these children run the asylum.

Loads of crazy suicidal ones that actually look like art, but I key on the one that's probably like a 8 year old that made a bonfire to throw masks on. Yep, that's definitely a cool kid.

"Find out".

Quebec's leadership overtly said "our police-state impersonation does shit-all. But we think it's funny to have you guys suffer."

Okay, that's not an exact quote, it was more "We have no proof or even evidence that lockdowns, enhanced lockdowns, or the curfew we are implementing have any efficacy at all, but it nonetheless should work as a splash of cold water on the faces of those not taking us seriously." And that one isn't excessive hyperbole. They overtly said their methods are not for "working", they're for causing people to suffer.

The plannedemic is absolutely beautiful in it's stacked objectives as a concentrated source of bringing about evil

  1. Crush small business

  2. Divide workers into essential and non-essential

  3. Millions get on the dole

  4. Isolate humanity from each other and create mental illness

  5. Blame Trump and take him out

  6. Dictatorships ruling by edict

  7. Tens of thousands defenseless people killed in nursing homes

  8. Supply chain problems leading to higher prices and shortages

  9. Fuck around with election procedure and deny observers access

  10. Habituate people to conform, snitch lines that would make Anne Frank blush

  11. The ultimate cult of only government-approved science

When "capitalism" destroyed the global economy in 2008, leftists were all about those knock-on effects. They crowed endlessly about massive increases in suicide, depression, homelessness, hunger, domestic violence, violent crime, everything. Because they believed they could lay all of that suffering at the feet of capitalism.

In 2020, governments all over the world destroyed the global economy, and to a far greater extent than 2008, with lockdowns that were not based in any science. The knock-on effects are incalculable. So why don't leftists care? Because this unilateral economic implosion is being used to destroy capitalism and implement socialism and communism. Who cares about suicide, starvation, homelessness, violence, etc. - we're in the middle of a revolution, here, comrade.

It's amazing how ingrained the indoctrination is in some people. I showed this to a few I know IRL and while they agreed it's awful what the lockdowns are doing to our kids, they doubled down and said that's exactly why we need to wear our masks and stay cooped up in our homes. ObViOuSlY, it's as bad as it is because people ignored the Science and our medical doctors. Add a few jabs at Trump supporters for good measure because 'those idiots are why we're still locked down a year later."

There's no reaching some people.

The best way too short circuit these people is to ask them what happened to the flu this year. Did we eliminate the flu with all of our covid-19 restrictions? Then why didn't they stop covid-19?

Yeah, agreed. Faceless Puppet Master (or is it TV-Screen-faced puppetmaster?) is a genuinely interesting presentation.

The photorealistic pencil art of Frodo and Sam is weirdly out of place. The three-eyed wolfman offering up a human heart and a knife had a youthful edgy creativeness to it.

Worst part about this: the perceived length of a year increases as your age decreases. If you live to be roughly 80 years old, you will perceive approximately half of your life to have taken place before the age of 18. This partially explains why our formative years are so formative.

Right now, young children are spending an enormous chunk of their perceived lifetime, and one of their most formative years, under oppressive and unnatural lockdowns. These kids aren't being properly socialized. They aren't seeing human faces. They're going to grow up fucking broken.

I wonder if that's part of the plan.

As I age, I find it is important to appreciate Time.

I try to spend a couple minutes a week just appreciating the passage of time, reflecting on past events. The reason humans perceive time so slanted is (IMO) we remember not the passage of time, but "events". Anything that blends into our monotony is, well, blended. Can you remember what you ate twenty-five days ago? Can you remember what you ate in the best day you ever had? One is monotony, the other is an event.

As a youth, all you have are Events. I jammed a nail through my hand last year by accident. I also, most likely, got any number of papercuts and bug bites. But I don't remember those, at least with any clarity. The nail I remember the entire scene, AND the aftermath and medical follow-up. It was an Event. But to a youth, being riddled in bug bits, or sliced up with aluminium foil cuts, they might be events. You'd remember them, the first time.

I remember every one of my sexual partners. But while I remember each one, I don't remember every single time with each one. I remember enjoying (or not) it, I remember some highlight best and worst parts, but not every action: it's all in the umbrella of the event that is their relationship. I could say I sexed "P" an estimated 45 times in that relationship, but it would be an estimate. A happy, satisfying monotony that blends together into the nostalgia of times lost.

My life began at 18, I was a reclusive shut-in. I had very few Events earlier than it compared to many. I had few friends, minimal excursions, life was "learn, eat, sleep, repeat". For me, the memory of 18-30 will likely be the "half my life" memory as I sunset.

What I'm trying to say in my rambling, is that the youth may be more resilient than you think. They may look back at these two years as one Event, but with many more to come later they will reflect upon more fondly. Assuming this madness actually ends, new events can broaden their horizons.

Use of logic is forbidden. You know the whole if locking up millions of kids saves just one life of a bedridden 90 year old woman who is about to die anyway then it's worth it. Don't think you can look at kids suicides and count those either. Those are most definitely the right wings fault for not pushing the kids to remove or alter their genitals. They totally have nothing to do with any lockdowns.

You're right and it's worse than that.

Of course kids aren't spreading it - they've been subject to the harshest restrictions. Under normal circumstances kids are really bad for spreading disease; taking the dumbest member of every household and putting them together in a building five times a week practically guarantees they'll spread it throughout the community. But that's not an argument for lockdowns, that's an argument for the government doing its job and controlling the border so this foreign plague never enters the community in the first place.

Honestly just swap the vulnerable teachers out for some that can actually do the job uncompromised. If they're are so feeble that they can't fulfill a critical component of society just because of a shitty Chinese knockoff flu, they should probably be on fucking disability or something, not dragging the kids down with them. Online classes are a cheap copout. We should be demanding more from the people who leech our taxes for a living. If they're going to continue with that bullshit they should lose virtually everything and we should probably just homeschool or use private schools.

Edit: distinguished country of origin of the shitty knock off flu.

I just don't consider only being able to do video classes to be "the job", and if they're incapable of doing the job, having them paid the same and sitting in for the same role is absurd.

What they should do is keep letting the integrity of the school system crumble away with this overcompensatory bullshit (because it's pretty much just government funded day care and indoctrination camps) but slash funding proportionately and use those saved taxes to subsidize alternative schooling forms like private schools and grants for parents looking to home school.

I guess what I'm getting at is that I would be more ok with all the bullshit going on with public schools if I didn't know they were keeping all of their funding.
