People where I live were generally behaving normally for the last few months like how it was before the globalist pandemic started but after the recent fearmongering, I sadly see many more useless masks on faces and I can see that the fear is spreading.
Yesterday my leftist aunt just went full Eric Ding level of COVID hysteria by trying to force double masking on my COVID recovered grandparents.
I was stunned when I learned that she actually got the booster shot after she had a bad adverse reaction that caused her a serious eye problem after the original two shots.
The rational members of my family have had to tell her to fuck off and not to torment my grandparents with her hysteria.
The sad truth is that the WEF globalists have already fully succeeded with their Great Reset plans. They have destroyed normality.
I am feeling more blackpilled than ever.
It's actually fascinating that people are able to maintain a consistent panic for so long. I haven't given a shit about this virus since I got it last year and it amounted to a stuffy nose.
I would have expected to see panic fatigue set in by now, and for everyone to just be bored and burnt out, especially in the liberal places which never broke lockdown.
It makes me wonder if people are really afraid at all. Maybe we're mis-interpreting this. Maybe people aren't afraid, maybe they're actually excited. Maybe this is like a horror movie adrenaline rush/virtue signal now, and leftists want it to continue because it gives them a feeling of purpose and righteousness they haven't had since religious revivals went out of style.
That has some truth to it. It makes them excited and they need that excitement to deal with their dull lives.
Well, it's the same people that fuel HOA horror stories. Or the same types who join certain community organizations in small towns and turn into Flower Nazis.
I think boredom is part of that. They have reached the American dream, and have nothing left.
There are also those who get to act as commissars in many countries where the "rules/laws" are little more than government guidance. Enough to give an outline for what should be done and create public shaming, but no actual legal push to do so meaning the various governments can turn around and say "We didn't force anyone to do that!"
There is a bit of that as well. But then everything is perfect again, and they are bored, so they make new rules or regulations.
The revealed preferences of the Branch COVIDians does not match their stated beliefs. If people thought there was still a pandemic, they wouldn't be out and about the way they are. If the masks worked the way people claim they do, they wouldn't be comfortable sitting down for a meal where everyone has to take their masks off. No one that you meet truly believes any of it.
I've had countless interactions with leftists who "forgot their masks".
If this were really a lethal pandemic, no one would fucking "forget" their mask.
Forgetting your mask in a lethal death-plague is about on par with forgetting your gun when you're storming the beaches of Normandy. How many soldiers forgot their basic equipment I wonder?
Same with wearing it properly. Like its pretty simply to do, and if the death plague was that bad you would deal with how uncomfortable it is to make sure it was affixed proper.
"So long as man remains free he strives for nothing so incessantly and so painfully as to find someone to worship."
-- Fyodor Dostoevsky
“When man ceases to worship God he does not worship nothing but worships everything.”
-- G.K. Chesterton
"There is a God-shaped hole in the human heart that only God can fill."
-- Augustine, Bishop of Hippo
This is true because selective breeding. If someone did not worship god, they were a heretic and killed. Thus people have been conditioned to follow the group and bow to whatever idol was erected at the local church.
So you’re theory is that the belief in God is a genetic phenomenon? Can beliefs be transmitted genetically?
Yes! Well, almost. I remember seeing a study that liberal/conservative values had a genetic component. That hole people feel that spirituality seems to fill also likely is genetic, as spirituality is a means for a tribe to bond together over something besides blood. Religion is really important for maintaining a larger tribe.
The pope gave them a free pass because banking IS a useful tool. But relying on foreigners for banking clearly has been a disaster.
It’s amazing, 10-15 years ago everyone online was telling me conservatives are backwards and authoritarian and trying to institute a Theocracy; now everyone is telling me conservatives are cowardly and weak and worthless.
It’s a shame all these critics of conservatism didn’t actually stand up and make a difference 10-15 years ago when it would have mattered… back when conservatives were the only ones standing up. Now that everything is going to hell, everyone on the right is blaming conservatives despite them being the only ones fighting for the last five decades.
You've been duped. 10-15 years ago, the internet was still largely enthusiasts, the kind easily swayed by academics which had been subverted by communist Russia long ago. Conservatives never really had power, it was all just a show put on by the uniparty.
It could be that banking is just really, really hard not to turn into a scam, which is why usury was made a sin. It may also have been useful to only allow outsiders to be bankers as they could easily be threatened to stay in line. Keeping usury as a sin, even after organizational methods have improved and made it easier to keep people honest, is one of those quirks that makes religion difficult to deal with.
There's no fatigue because people have no meaning or purpose in their life and being scared of something gives them some semblance of meaning.
Yeah the maskers now see it as a status symbol.
We thought by killing god we would reach an era of reason, but we have only unleashed a horde of demons.
Instead we got the end of reason. Anyone who thought that the end of God would result in an age of reason is an idiot, as most faiths are governed by reason, with varying degrees of success of course. Read Aurelius's work, it's nothing but the best of rationalism, and much of it is predicated on being a believer in fate and the external.
Even someone who believes in reason must at the foundation accept certain premises to be true on faith, like the fact of your own existence, or the proper functioning of your senses.
Yes. Even science and math have their own axioms otherwise they wouldnt function at all
Killing god was never the end point. Neitzche was emphasizing that once you kill God, you are left with no other option but to take full responsibility of your life.
We didn't unleash a horde of demons, it's that if God is dead, people would rather worship Satan than take responsibility for themselves.
As always, The Protomen are relevant to any discussion.
Very Meatloaf-like
Mucho Gusto.
That being said, I don't have the villains view of man. I just view that man has been conditioned to give himself a god to lord over him. I think man can and will mature long enough to never need a god again, but we have to kill all our own gods to do that. That can't be done by killing other people's gods. You have to only kill your own. The final vestige of your enslavement to another exists within your own mind.
And I've lectured other people on heroism before. A hero is not a good thing. A hero is a sign of systemic failure. If you take time reading Medal of Honor citations, acts from people who's actions are going to be considered heroic even by their enemies, you find one thing that's common in nearly all of them: a total collapse of the system to support them.
A hero is the person who stands up and makes the system work while it fails. Whether it's Shughart & Gordan, charging out into Mogadishu alone because no one could support another rescue mission; or Meyer personally charging a pickup truck into an enemy village at least 4 times under heavy fire because artillery support was refused; or Chapman charging a Taliban bunker to relive machine gun fire that was suppressing his team, and then fighting to the death in it; they all show heroism by sacrificing themselves at the alter of a system that failed them. Heroism is a sign of systemic failure. Heroism should be avoided, because it shouldn't have been needed in the first place.
I'd recommend listening to their two albums then, because the entirety of both is about deconstructing the idea of a hero actually making a difference. Every time one rises up the people rally behind him, but no one will actually stand by his side. They want him to completely liberate them from their chains without any work of their own other than "supporting" him. And the moment he isn't their hero who is going to save them, they abandon him to go home and cry about how oppressed they are. Something I think we can all relate to in the current "culture war."
Its also a great listen because moral quandaries like that aside its almost a (likely unintentional) deconstruction of two major Leftist weapons.
The entire society got that bad in the first place because one bad guy abused the media coverage of a crime to whip up a frenzy of a lynch mob to discredit the only man who would oppose him, and then when the justice system failed (aka found the man innocent because he didn't do it) he told the people it couldn't protect them and they should support him because he could.
At which point he sweeps himself into full dictator power by promising people they will never have to work again, they will simply live in the city doing whatever they want forever and his robots will do all the actual tasks. All they need to do is obey his government. Those that don't just disappear and everyone pretends its better this way.
It was profound in 2008 and now its god damned prophetic in 2021.
The horrible, terrible, awful truth...
... is that no one was ever going to save you.
You had to do it yourself.
The good news is that once your realize that, you can actually make your world a better place. If you can inspire other people to help save them selves.
Well, then you really will save the world.
The villain says: "I will save you from the evil of this world."
The actual hero says: "You can save yourself from the evil of this world."
There are too many people who don't want this to end. Not just people in power, but every petty teenaged bully who never grew up, who spent their school years going tatting to the teacher about everything. They won't let go of the ego rush this phenomenon provides, because their Borderline Personality Disorder means they can't survive without it.
A large portion of society wasnt normal to begin with.
None of my family members are doomers at this point.
I do find it very disappointing though how none of them see any problem whatsoever with people like myself being completely segregated from society while they continue to frequent establishments enforcing vaccine passports.
And the solution to their cognitive dissonance is just not to invite me or not to tell me at all about social events even taking place.
Their justification is "I'm not going to stop living my life"
A very thoughtful reply.
I think you are a better/more empathetic person than I am. I don't reach out or worry about taking care of others very much.
But I am very sensitive to concepts of fairness and justice.
It infuriates me that sellouts go about their lives and purposefully exclude you under strawmen like "well, you made a choice".
No, you NPC, I didn't make a choice. Some tyrants made one and depersoned me.
How can people do not understand that as long as you can breathe, you can catch viruses. You can put 10 masks on but if you can breathe, you can still catch it. People nowadays are doing everything just not by natural immunity, like we did for most of the things, rest and water and vitamin intake. Good thing for you is, normal won't come back because of those types of people, being afraid of their own toilet. Sad thing is, we deserve the 'normal' and it's dependent on masses of woke sheeps. I didn't give a damn about it when it started and I won't give a fuck ever.
I have access to a CS qualification facility. I've offered people the chance to use it and see how well the paper napkin they put on their face protects against tear gas. So far no takers. When I wouldn't wear a mask and I'd get the "How dare you!" my response was:
"Oh please. I know to use a gas mask and had yearly training in Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical warfare. Hell for the better part of a decade I worked for the men who provided Saddam his biological and chemical weapons back in the 80's. So keep believing that paper napkin is going to save you because I know it won't."
Usually they have a confused look on their faces as I walk off after that...
I'd use CS to pepper my steak and eggs in the morning. It's not pleasant, but there's something oddly... refreshing about it.
Clears your sinuses right out.
Now, you let the concentration get too high, and you'll be begging for somebody to get you some clean air, but a pellet or two in a decent-sized room is tolerable.
Japan just flattened the curve using ivermectin over 12 days. Hope is not lost.
They ignored it when Uttar Pradesh showed similar results, so they'll ignore it with Japan as well.
What has been done to children over the last two years is nothing short of criminal and in a just world there would be a veritable forest full of swinging bodies as recompense.
It really broke people that were already mentally and emotionally fragile. I have a coworker that's loving the lockdown thing. She's fetishized the whole gloving and masking up ritual. Special container at the door where she peels off the gloves and masks.
Thankfully she doesn't have kids that she'd be infecting with this nonsense. Just a elderly yippy rat dog that's probably welcoming the warm embrace of coming death.
I think you're a bit over-reacting. This is about which people are within their sphere of influence.
When you look at it from a counter-insurgency standpoint, you can't really measure ground and territory, you have to measure people, and the support of their physical social networks.
To the older generation, you have to understand that the Boomers lived in a Democratic Socialist state. There were three news channels. LBJ really did say: "If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost the war." That's how powerful and trusted the media was at one time; and we are all suffering for FDR's consolidation. Boomers grew up in a time where you would work 40 years, and your entire career, at one mega company. Those companies, in co-ordination with the US military to prevent significant casualties from nuclear strikes, built the suburbs, and working with the banks, financed it.
As based as you think some old boomers might be, they lived in an America where shit like this was never even reported. The CIA intentionally released a minor disease on San Francisco as an experiment in biological warfare. The USAF damn near dropped a hydrogen bomb on NC by accident (it's still buried in the ground, the military left it there).
This population is not one that is likely to be moved away form media influence because media influence was normal for all their lives.
The Fabian Socialists have succeeded with populations that were going to be loyal to them: media consumers, intellectuals, bureaucrats, government vassals & dependents. Just to be clear: that used to be almost everyone. It isn't anymore.
The truth is, the Fabians have failed. And instead of reverting to literal Fabian strategy, they became aggressive and over-played their hand as if they had adopted GamerGate as their primary means of communication. They did this because to their captive audience, shame and humiliation normally work. But instead, it's backfired on them, and there are huge swathes of the population that are in revolt to not only Covid nonsense, but to the media, and even academia. My god, conservatives are even beginning to draw lines in the sand in regards to the police.
Normality was always going to be destroyed by the Fabians, that's what the Great Reset is all about. But, I can tell you that in most of that most people have not had normality destroyed. Only some people. Only the Fabian dependents. Everyone else is now up for grabs, and deciding to trust their gut, rather than the TV man.
The Fabians have a lot of institutional power, but if any lesson can be taken from irregular warfare, it's that institutional power doesn't mean shit unless you can bring at least the majority of the population along to be tolerant of your actions. From all the protests, the absolutely horrid push-polling results, and the cultural ascendancy of the rejection of the establishment, you should take heart because the Fabians are in far worse shape than they expected and do not have control over the population in the way they once did.
Last weekend when we went to Home Depot for whatever easily 2/3rds of the people were unmasked. Home Depot hasn't been enforcing masks since the spring even when there was a county mask mandate. Today I go in for another strand of Christmas lights and I'm the only one without a mask in the store. Even though mask mandates got struck down in court last week.
And Europe will be Islamic, because most who have not taken the shots are Muslim.
At least they won't be crossing the Atlantic for free once the American sheep are out of commission.
Good living, mate.
I'm almost a bit jealous you're able to get out of the thick of it. It will certainly do your (intellectual) health wonders.
As Yuri said, they are fully demoralized. They are blind to reality itself. The believe men are women and women are men, and will call you insane if you point out their madness.
Frankly with the Omicron Ceti V variant and the almost immediate panic reactions of all government leaders to shut everything down again within not even 72 hours of its discovery - I am fully convinced that this is biological warfare.
Maybe by China, maybe by Cobra or the WEF... One thing is certain - this is NOT organic or natural.
It's biological warfare done in cooperation with the government. Patents for the viruses and their vaccines were granted decades ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihjNDf32_Ac
It's all a coordinated effort, as outlined by a Dutch politician: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAxuvTzWJLY
Very conveniently it attacks those who now "they" want to vaccinate.
The whole thing is a scum , yes there is a virus that can kill like the influenza one so nothing fucking important. It is used for the political subjugation of the masses.
I work in a firm with like 200 employees from ages 40-65 (Europe) like half of them got it (some multiple times) and eventually we are all back in office.
Looking around, this variant doesn't even seem to have killed anyone yet. A six year old had a rapid pulse for couple of days and then recovered. That's it.
South African medical officials aren't happy that the reward they got for openly and swiftly reporting a variant they see as 'unusual but mild' was a bunch of travel bans.
They can see that this being played up by other governments.
Asking seriously here, why were you shocked that she got the booster? She sounds like an abject retard, so it makes perfect sense that she's going to keep dosing up with that poison until it kills her.
Seems fear of percieved deadly sickness causes kneejerk reactions just like women's peril.
They weren't normal to begin with.
I thought the timing was very convenient. Officials in Europe were saying that after this winter, everyone will have been vaccinated or infected, which means that the virus will be much less of a threat. Then suddenly this new variant shows up.
Your aunt is probably just trying to protect your grandparents. Save your ire for the people who want to double mask 5-year-olds.
The timing is not just convenient, it is clearly intentional. Globalists are obviously using a "new variant" to push even more tyranny down everyone's throats.
My grandparents both got COVID 19 and recovered this year using FLCCC's early treatment protocol which included Ivermectin and other cheap medications.
They definitely should still have natural immunity but my aunt refuses to believe that natural immunity even exists because she listens to the U.K.'s version of Fauci.
I truly despise the globalist pieces of filth who started all of the COVID hysteria.
They have ruined so many people's lives.
The worst part is that we will never get any justice.
All of these globalist fuckers deserve a Nuremberg trial 2.0.
Instead these globalists will likely live to the age of a lich like Kissinger.
Only time will tell. Why would they let it loose in Botswana? That's what makes me think that it is not intentional, though it was my first suspicion.
Maybe tell her that natural immunity is recognized throughout the EU as equivalent to vaccination.
That said, natural immunity is still not perfect, and will likely wear off over time. You really don't want to play political games with the lives of your grandparents. If a double mask isn't doing them any good, it's not doing them any harm either.
As diseases evolve, they trend towards being less deadly. Which is sort of obvious when you think about high school biology: there is selection pressure on strains that keep the hosts not only alive, but out and mingling to keep spreading it. Even with resistance (switching over to bacteria), the factors that grant resistances consumes energy that might otherwise be used for mitosis, so they actually are less suited for multiplication.
The big signal that there is something intentionally done, in my mind, would be if a discovered strain was found to be legitimately more deadly.
It would prove me right beyond any doubt.
Supposedly, this new variant spreads much faster even than the Delta variant.
In theory, it could kill 90% within a month and it would have no effect on the rate of spread.
That said, there is no indication that it is more deadly.
Because no one is going to actually go to fucking Botswana to investigate. Double masks constricts breathing, and for old people like grandparents, is not good.
Dumb take.
He's an idiot pro-vaxxer.
Not only do masks not work against airborne pathogens, but, as you mentioned, they make respiratory functions worse:
The only time anyone should wear a mask is if it has proper filtration and a sealant, otherwise it's just a detrimental performative act with zero benefits... especially if the mask is touched in any capacity while it's being worn.
African diseases are commonly regarded as worse. When people hear something is from Africa, they picture Ebola.
I partially agree with you on this, it depends on their age though.
I live in an European country that just announced extra doses of the vaccines for everyone. Just after the newspaper was telling us how effective the vaccines are no less. They don't even need the extra variant.
France?
You are one. I was watching you push fake vaccines on this website nearly a year ago.
Why would anyone here ever trust a single word you say.
Show me where I said to double mask 5-year-olds.
