Giovanni Battista Tiepolo Allegory of the Planets and Continents 1752 • New Covid Strains ‘May Even Escape The Immune Response’ – Biden Advisor
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle February 6 2021]I thought you would cover this Time article about “fortifying” the election, which reads to me as an admission of rigging. Perhaps it’s all old news to you.
This RT op-ed about it is also worthwhile IMHO.
I thought you would cover this Time article about “fortifying” the election
It’s in yesterday’s Debt Rattle.
YouTube removed two videos from a December 8th hearing before the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. It featured Kory who discussed the use of Ivermectin as a potential treatment for Covid-19, particularly in the early stages. It is a drug that treats tropical diseases caused by parasites. Kory was calling for a review by National Institutes of Health on trials for the drug.
Just fuggeddabout all the lives that could be saved and the suffering that could be eased, we gotta protect all those nice, pretty Big Pharma remdesivir and vaccine profits!
I thought this might be apropos to a recent comment on Russia’s strength/population vs. the U.S….
The Best time to Attack Russia
This past September, in one of his regular interviews with the newspaper Parlamentní Listy, retired Czech Major General Hynek Blaško commented on the possibility of a conflict between Russia and NATO with a following anecdote:
“I have seen a popular joke on the Internet about Obama and his generals in the Pentagon debating on the best timing to attack Russia. They couldn’t come to any agreement, so they decided to ask their allies.
The French said: ” We do not know, but certainly not in the winter. This will end badly. ”
The Germans responded: “We do not know, either, but definitely not in a summer. We have already tried.”
Someone in Obama’s war room had a brilliant idea to ask China, on the basis that China is developing and always has new ideas.
The Chinese answered: “The best time for this is right now. Russia is building the Power of Siberia pipeline, the North Stream Pipeline, Vostochny Cosmodrome Spaceport, the MegaProject bridge to Crimea; also Russian is upgrading the Trans-Siberian railroad with a new railway bridge across Lena River and the Amur-Yakutsk Mainline. Russia is also building new sports facilities for the World Cup and athletics, and has in development over 150 production projects in the Arctic … Well, now they really need as many POWs as possible!”DailyDot.com’s take on the reaction to the recent Time article about the election.

I loved to read the newspaper(FT) and magazines like the Economist for their information and opinions. Once most of the news sources went Woke, we dropped the subscriptions. These included the Economist, FT, and others. Now I love your blog because I get what I use to love, both opinion and interesting points of view. We now support you on Patreon. Thanks again!
@polderdweller
Karl seemed to have the same take on that article as you. So what do we do about it? If its true that they stole it, could it not also be true that they’re in bed with the chinese? I always found it strange that those “videos” escaping china last year around this time showing people dropping dead in the streets made it on the internet here. China would never let something like that out. And the almost chinese “socialcreditscores” the tech companies adopted in 2020 also seems kinda strange. Whatever can’t happen here!
@ Raul
“Still, censoring Senate hearings should be out of the question for Big Tech.”
But they’re censoring only their own forum. C-SPAN still works. I find us confusing business with government again and again. It’s more semantic than intellectual. We all know that functionally, the distinction has become moot at best.
Knowing us (humans), what we do to remedy this will be worse than the problem.

Thank you Henry.
That sort of summarizes/encompasses exactly why I do what I do. Information should be free, but it’s not. The only thing that’s free anymore is opinions. But even those now come mostly with a subscription fee. Which means if you have little money, you have limited info/opinion space. Things shouldn’t be like that.
Angelo Codevilla:
“In 2021, the laws, customs, and habits of the heart that had defined the American republic since the 18th century are things of the past. Americans’ movements and interactions are under strictures for which no one ever voted. Government disarticulated society by penalizing ordinary social intercourse and precluding the rise of spontaneous opinion therefrom. Together with corporate America, it smothers minds through the mass and social media with relentless, pervasive, identical, and ever-evolving directives. In that way, these oligarchs have proclaimed themselves the arbiters of truth, entitled and obliged to censor whoever disagrees with them as systemically racist, adepts of conspiracy theories.
Corporations, and the government itself, require employees to attend meetings personally to acknowledge their guilt. They solicit mutual accusations. While violent felons are released from prison, anyone may be fired or otherwise have his life wrecked for questioning government/corporate sentiment. Today’s rulers don’t try to convince. They demand obedience, and they punish..”
Use [Drug X] for coping with lockdowns – and don’t harsh my buzz
Some recent research about [Drug X]:
Increasing empirical evidence has presented [Drug X] as a buffering resource that enhances psychosocial adjustment…Thus, [Drug X] would seem to be a valuable resource for people in quarantine, as it facilitates coping with their distress and may reduce the anxiety related to the decreased personal freedom and control… Our results highlight the meaningful role of [Drug X] at times of high levels of stress and uncertainty, such as the outbreak of a pandemic. [Drug X] could thus be considered as responsible for activating a change mechanism that reduces psychological distress.
[Drug X] during the COVID-19 outbreak: coping with the psychological impact of quarantine
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09515070.2021.1881762A presidential candidate in the US was elected with a campaign that included giving free [Drug X] to anyone who wanted it.
I forgot to highlight this key phrase:
[Drug X] may reduce the anxiety related to the decreased personal freedom and control.I can’t help thinking that all of the insanity that we are witnessing is connected: the repression of dissent, the internet censorship, the politicized pandemic, the stolen election, the consolidation of political and corporate power, the endless media lies – and all of it synchronized among the empire’s vassals.
If I were to guess, I’d say that a decision has been made at the top that democratic institutions are no longer conducive to the empire’s plans for global hegemony. Wasting time by attempting to educate the public and get their buy-in is just too clumsy and slow in today’s fast-paced and interconnected world, not to mention that there’s every possibility the general public will not agree with your plans and resist. Western leaders have seen what the Chinese have been able to accomplish with their top-down one-party dictatorship and wish to implement the same in the west. They see this as the only solution that has a chance of countering China’s attempts to overtake the current US centralized empire.
@Mr House
Yes, that is how I see it, and thanks for the link.
What there is to be done about it, that’s the million dollar question. The Time article is like you going up to a guy in a bar and saying “Hey, you damaged my car,” and he stands up, six foot four, and says “So I did, watcha gonna do about it?”
So I’m thinking that the straightforward approach isn’t going to work and a different way is going to be needed. To borrow a military term, something asymmetric, but I don’t profess to know what that might be at the moment. I’m thinking, though.
Nevada bill would allow tech companies to create governments.
from top post. https://bit.ly/3jspHb0
Yes… though Gvmts. is a bit of a stretch. This proposal or action(s) is just a few more small but significant steps towards a neo-feudal landscape.
Where Industrial Kings and Big Biz Boards create enclaves aka fiefs, where they reign as KorpoKings (maybe not the best moniker, have to think..) who regulate everything, including rating of ppl, the housing / jobs / pay / privileges they can hope for, etc.
All dressed up in faux-modernity discourse about competition, innovation, loyalty to ‘right’ values, aspirations, best lives to live, and so on. Probably many ppl see this as ‘cool’, as they might escape stupid rules about lawns and some taxes they don’t agree with, ignoring the wider legal, territorial, aspects. Clinging to some tribe, group, top boss, cult-like figure, etc.
USA State and Federal Legislation (not much use.. recently.. to ordinary ppl) will no longer apply in these -for the moment- tiny areas. —> Or only so when the locals fociferously demand it and a kind impasse has been reached?.. to be seen..
Next, other small areas will pop up here and there, and flourish.
The mantra will be competition and better lives, and being with your people, like-minded people, while sub rosa all the Big Corps will collaborate to enslave all employees and low-lifes, and a ‘blanket’ power will be given to Regulatory Oversight (corp controlled.) With locals ultimately, completely powerless.
This bleak vision is hopefully rather fanciful, not realistic, easily debunked.
Honestly, I just think people are going insane individually and collectively from continually decreasing net-energy availability and its impacts. And of course, being Americans, we’re making the whole process as drawn-out, agonizing, and lugubrious as we possibly can. 🙂
Mussolini certainly doesn’t smile at the idea of pencil-necked geeks peddling corp-wokesterism starting their own countries.
“Everything in the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State.”
Allowing actors outside the state to create other states potentially hostile to the state is hardly something the baldy-bastard would have signed off on.
A lot of this confusion stems from the 1990s trope about “fascism being the merger of state and corporation”. The search for this quote has been ongoing, and unless id duce survived his neck-stretching and got himself an AOL account in the mid to early 1990s, is almost certainly fake.
http://www.publiceye.org/fascist/corporatism.html
I think it’s clear from Mussolini and Gentile’s writings (in their own words) that they’d have loathed the modern corporate/capitalist state with a vengeance.
I wish people would just stop using the F word full stop.
@dermot: Even though I don’t read JMG anymore, I think his evaluation of classical Fascism is the one I used in referring to things as Fascism. I think American right-wing authoritarianism [I would like to interject here that I think it’s the authoritarian-nationalist faction of the Deep State, as opposed to the neo-con/neo-lib globalist faction represented by Biden and Harris, who is propagating this story about a stolen election] will certainly have some things in common with old-fashioned Fascism. But in Fascism, the government was very much the senior partner in the amalgamation of the corporate establishment and the government, but in American RWA, the corporate establishment will be the senior partner and the RWA government would do whatever it does to prop up the interests of the corporate establishment. This is not to deny, however, that the globalists are soft authoritarians.
I think the authoritarian-nationalists would have been able to hold onto power if they hadn’t had a figurehead as unstable and erratic as Donald Trump in the Oval Office. However, it was Trump who was able to capture the fancy of a large subset of voters who felt alienated by the whole globalist game, and he was willing to be their guy, so they took the opportunity that presented itself to them, as their power has been seriously on the wane ever since the Clinton Administration. I have to admit, I am not looking forward to seeing how this all plays out.
Does anyone know of any government or leader that is not being criticized?
Voting and changing the leader/party does not illiminate the criticism.
All groupings of people will produce a dominating individual. Your option, is to find a valley of your own (with no support) and become a hermit.It is interesting to note the things obiden are doing like censoring/siliencing enemies, keeping troops in Washington DC, impeachment, no security briefings for ex-president, all action of an insecure administration that stole the election.
These are not the actions of a properly elected confident administration.
V. Arnold:
Enjoyed your Russian/US/China joke.
People forget the Russians have a sense of humor.
They pretend to pay us and we pretend to work!I admit to being stir-crazy and old, so instinctively, I know that everything comes around again. The counter-revolt that seized the Western Empire starting with Ronald Reagan was the result of new money merging the surviving intellects of the Austria-Hungarian Empire and the old money plantation caste to birth a supra-money-making global autocracy to supplanted democracies that were bought and compromised. Joe Biden and especially Kamala Harris are supra-global members.
What is interesting is that Larry Summers is no longer an Insider. The fatal flaw was that the new/old aristocracy firmly believed that government is pointless, a hindrance, a curse; especially democracy. But the US government failed on 9/11, let coronavirus become endemic, threw its essential workers into the trash, and had two fiscal crises in 12 years. Government is necessary to prevent the Four Horsemen from running wild. Rich and poor are equally vulnerable to chaos.
For the Hamptons to survive, democracy and good government must be restored. Blaming 75 million Trump voters and Russia for everything will only bring on a civil or a world war. It is time to recognize this is a multi-polar world again, withdraw to North American, and make the New World a violence and illness free zone as much as it is humanly possible.

And yes, people forget or just don’t know, Russians have a great sense of humor. I think Pres. Putin often has a wry smile when dealing with some of the U.S.’s nonsense…What to do about it? Very simple: stop supporting them.
Don’t use their tracking systems.
Don’t use their news.
Don’t use their banks.
Don’t use their products.
Don’t support slavery.
Don’t rat out and kill your neighbors.
Don’t support laws that were never passed.Don’t support the end of all human rights as defined in the Constitution.
It burns my biscuits to see all these libertarians be feck-less, of feck-ing idiots jumping right on Facebook, YouTube, etc, WHEN YOU KNOW what they’re going to do. And now they have, congratulations. If everyone had just acted the way they always knew they were going to act, then these guys, Dorsey, Fargo, would be half the size. And there would be competition, and they would not be TBTF, easy to erase and forget. YOU did that.
And everybody just signs up, pays them the whole economy, buys at WalMart, with a Citi card, searches on Google, buys from Microsoft and Apple, and then whines, whines, whines and wants their fully-formed subsidiary, government, to do for them what they refuse to do for themselves, ‘cause it costs a nickel.
Too bad. As Rowe was saying, convenience, safety, has terrible costs and is a cure worse than ANY disease. “Those who would trade safety for security, deserve neither.” They’ll die in hole, whipped as a slave when they could simply walk away and live. They won’t. Then they wouldn’t have that someone else to blame.
Why?
How do you fix it? Start supporting your family and community and screwing billionaires. Instead of 100% the other way around. At the moment what I see is people would screw their family and jail them for life if they could get 50c coupon at Olive Garden. That’s not government’s fault. It’s yours. You notice the Amish aren’t having these problems and everyday become larger and more prosperous? And every day you have more of these problems and are more impoverished, isolated, and stressed. Maybe you’re doing it wrong? Maybe the ads on TV aren’t put there to help you after all.
The Mussolini quote isn’t fake. It is a paraphrase though, from an interview in the 30s. I’ve seen the reference. Today’s system, correct they would see government as the senior partner, but when all fascio, straws, or sticks, are in one bundle, there is no one that are primary. All are one. One for all. So the primary elements are all there: joining government (check), business (check), therefore government run-and-directed economy (check), and what people forget SOCIAL PRESSURE (check) for a new, better, PROGRESSIVE society (check) which is birthed on socialism and organizing labor (check), with people tightly obeying their roles (check) according to race and gender rather than individual choice (check). There are some others: expansive offensive wars (check), positive view of violence (check), sense of destiny of history (check) all opponents are traitors (check), and fascination with race sometimes (check), but adding the social, peer, pressure for radical conformity, and burning the shops of all who would retain individuality and NOT join completely with the
BorgFacio, is the key element here.What thing, if any, disagrees with the rigid, classic, definition of fascism? No funny boots?
I always thought there was something wrong with the official handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, but it took YouTube’s censoring of Dr. Kory’s Senate testimony video to make me realize that there are no depths that are too low for these people to go. I can’t think of a single good reason for what we’re seeing. I can think of some very dark reasons, but no good ones.
For the first time since I became aware of this pandemic last January, I am beginning to question the entire Covid-19 narrative.
> What thing, if any, disagrees with the rigid, classic, definition of fascism? No funny boots?
Good question! So many discourse-policers on the internet right now, saying “this isn’t Fascism!”, or
“it’s super-hard to define, so just don’t use that F-word!”.When Corporations are silencing the People
with Gub’mint assistance (or vice-versa) – as is happening now- , that’s one pretty good diagnostic.> What to do about it? Very simple: stop supporting them.

Don’t support laws that were never passed. <Nice. Any ideas about *effectually* doing that, other than going Amish/Mennonite? Not a bad idea,
in our New, elite-constructed Dark Age..It doesn’t matter whether you use FB/Google/Ama and the like, or not: if you’re online, those systems
are *using you*- surveilling and making money off of you, likely without your knowledge or consent.On, or off [the evilNet, I mean]- that’ll likely be the question soon enough.
Will the eviNet provide food, or emotional sustenance?
