    A Norwegian preprint study on excess mortality in 31 European countries shows a statistical association between increased vaccination coverage and increased excess mortality. Every one percent increase in vaccination coverage in the population increased mortality by just over 0.1% (0.105%) for every single month in the first 9 months of 2022.

    The numbers say it all.

    Today, March 1st, the Hong Kong government got rid of all mask laws. Up until now there was a 5000 HKD (630 USD) fine for not wearing a mask in a public place, unless it was on public transport where the fine was 10000 HKD (1260 USD, for the mathematically retarded).

    I went into the center of Hong Kong this afternoon, I was surprised to see almost 50% of people not wearing masks, but then I went to Kowloon and there were over 90% of people still wearing masks. The Asian psyche is something that I just cannot fathom, they behave as if they are the most pathetic and weak people on earth, and many of them are, but many of them are also very considerable people. It is so disappointing to see these people reject nature and put their trust in man-made masks: it is as if they are trying to live their twisted version of the American Dream: these white-man masks will save us from the Covid.

    Fortunately, many kids and younger people (under 30s) were happy to go around unmasked. Maybe they can teach their elders a thing or two about the value of the white-man’s mask science, as imposed by Fauci the Jew.

    CNN: “Situation in Bakhmut is Worse than Officially Reported.” Really? You mean worse than reported by YOU? Because from everybody else, I’ve been reading what was happening there accurately for months.

    So. Black Hats are protecting Sy Hersh. As Step one of taking out Biden. Fine with me.

    Escobar, “Stage is Set”, oi, that is lame. “President Putin’s address – rather, a civilizational speech – last week was a game-changer”

    Okay, any time the word “game changer” is used, the sentence – and probably the article – is false. And he’s full of such stuff, which as a reporter is beneath him. Seems to be a new life path he’s on. Great! But not so great for us. We have all the partisans we can stand. We need reporters with facts.

    Mass Drone Attack Unleashes Chaos, Air Raid Sirens Inside Russia”

    Same. What “chaos”? Real “chaos” is like that ‘nothing to see here’ scene in Naked Gun and is by definition a short-term event like “panic”. It also is extreeeeeeeeeeeemely localized. A “nation” cannot panic. Translation: 5 people in the specific place where the drone hit had a bad day, didn’t know what to do for a short and very inconvenient time. Once they realized what was going on and got the fire extinguisher, all panic passed.

    Just to be fair, even Bakhmut being overrun isn’t “chaos” or “panic” although it’ll be a lot closer. They knew it was coming and what would happen when.

    I guess this is a sign journalists have no brains since THEY would be in “chaos”, THEIR minds would shut off? And/or like 5-year-olds have no experience with reality? Oh and this is ZeroHedge, not NBC. “I didn’t have cream for my coffee and had to use milk. I panicked. It was chaos. When it was over the building had burned down and a woke up in another state, in bed with a leopard seal.” You know: chaos.

    Sorry, all articles are also required by law to have “without evidence. It was a game-changer. Walls are closing in.”

    “As an increasingly disturbing trend of outright chaos spreads through U.S. cities, … Pennsylvania Chick-fil-A Bans Diners 16 And Under Without Adult Supervision”

    Well that’ll fix “chaos”. Chick-fil-a ties up the dogs of war.

    Biden Supports ‘Safe And Secure’ Gain-of-Function Research, White House Says”

    It is now “safe” to make diseases deadly, or even invent new pandemics. That’s what happens as above, words have no meaning. Safe = Deadly. That’s just common sense.

    “Not testing for dioxin = Science.”

    Science = Not Data. All the not-data money can buy: That’s Science!™

    “Transgender Athlete Wins Four Female Running Competitions In A Row”

    What are the odds??? (about 70:1 in favor, actually.) This is what also happens when words have no meaning: women are no longer protected anywhere, and slowly all things are taken from them, including success and safety. That’s love and diversity!

    “Biden Admin Proposes To Block Half Of Current Gas Range Models”

    The other half declined to pay the bribes to the Big Guy. Government doing what it was designed for. What it does best.

    “Woody Harrelson”, we know HOW, we just won’t do it. And that can be just as simple as going Amish, buying less, choosing companies of your friends and good people. That requires a spiritual change. You can of course tear the country apart, but that’s messy. If you can’t change WITHOUT tearing the country apart, what makes you think you could do it by ADDING a nationwide arson and murder spree? Seems counterproductive. We’re not better than we are.

    Ze: “The US will have to send their sons and daughters exactly the same way”

    Really??? That Coke is really going to your head. Make me. This is why we have more guns than the U.S. Army. How are they planning on making me? If I were shooting the U.S. Army Draft board, how would I also be shooting others who never done anything to me in Ukraine or Vietnam? As Cassius Clay said. Sounds expensive and counterproductive. Better not try it and find out.

    “Wait until insurance companies have to change their long term mortality assumptions…that’s when the real losses get realized. “ – Edward Dowd

    No they won’t, they will raise rates, and no one will have insurance. That will cause friction and help collapse the system. It could be easily fixed, but to do that all one has to do is tell the truth. It would be undone just the way it was done. We just slowly walk away from hell, and back where we came, with smaller people, smaller shops, smaller companies, more local and more moral. No one wants that. THAT is your problem: they are oriented and aligned to #AntiLogos, to #AntiLife, to #AntiReality, #AntiMorality, and therefore to #AntiChrist. As Christ, the #Truth and #Logos is their sole enemy, like holy water to them. Like other demons even hearing his name makes them insane. Inexplicable to me, but I’m just reporting what I see every day.

    Like this: https://twitter.com/i/status/1630489111868985345

    “Hungary Calls For Justice Over Pipeline Sabotage (RT) “

    Like here. Germany is so aligned to #Death and #AntiLogos, #AntiTruth, they cannot look at the #Truth even as it kills them. After waiting patiently for a strategic amount of time, Hungary is therefore taking up the banner of #Life and survival that Germany won’t. Hungary and Russia are trying hard to save Germany. Germany is trying hard to die. That’s war in the time of #AntiChrist.

    “Zelensky Hints at Withdrawing from Russian-Encircled Bakhmut (ZH) “

    The reporter must have “panicked”, everything here is a lie. By omission and direction, mostly. Example: took a month to notice Bakhmut was shelled year-round? Huh. Slow learners. “Hold the city at any cost?” Great but because they invested so heavily in THIS line of defense, there are no lines of defense behind it. That was a choice made months ago about directing #Real resources. So it’s not just a town. There is now essentially nowhere to fall back to except a couple turnaround stations and Kiev. I’m not faulting them for it. If they’d made 5 lines Russia would have overrun 3 of them by now, so same result. That’s just #Reality, their sole enemy.

    “Some soldiers cited in local reports are vowing to fight till the end,”

    Reporters: “Some” people say anything. The drunk on the corner “Claims” the world is flat and Nancy Pelosi is a lizard alien in a rubber mask. However, “Some soldiers”? Yes, all the ones with Nazi tattoos as they will be shot on sight. Or rather, on site, after capture and processing. 16-year old Sasha from Lviv? Not so much.

    ““When I came, I was really surprised. Everybody had tattoos and Nazi symbolism,” the former American soldier said.

    Yes, because he’s illiterate. Sorry to disparage the many vets here, but do soldiers – who are signing up – never, EVER read a word of military history first? I mean, if was going to become a plumber (professionally), I’d read “What does a plumber do? What is their history? What does it pay? Do I want to do this?” But never in the military, which is inexplicable to me. Politicians ALWAYS destroy soldiers. ALWAYS cripple generals and bedevil the war. And the U.S. for one ALWAYS abandons and abuses their veterans. Fix that first and I’ll join. They claim to know war though. /rant and I apologize. But if more young men – who are mostly the children of other soldiers and police – did this, they would be forced to clean up the Army decades/centuries ago.

    “The West has “never shied away from using both radicals and extremists in their interests, despite all their loud statements about fighting international terrorism,”

    Wiki “Project Gladio” if googling “NY Times” “Ukraine Nazis” is too far for you. They are also 13 of 15 of the domestic terrorists in Michigan.

    “Gal Luft, a former adviser to a Chinese energy conglomerate”

    Was that the one Biden took bribes from and Hunter said was the “F-ing head of the Chinese CIA”? Asking because the NY Times won’t.

    The Return of Oracles: Chatbots Are Coming! (Ugo Bardi) “

    Following the AI, “We make s—t up!” so clearly they are best suited to be reporters. Only yesterday, ChatGPT told Musk that each Tesla battery takes 121 barrels of oil. …Oh wait, 121 THOUSAND barrels of oil per battery. Because AI just “makes stuff up” that you want to hear. And it’s dangerous and we’re all going to obey it and do what it says? Well the MORONS among us will. The rest of us will cross-check everything it says with a pencil. I was watching long exchanges and it sounds like a 10-year-old writing a 6th grade school paper. That is, if you want anything smart, it doesn’t have it. But it DID learn everything it knows on the Internet, so… It would therefore be a miracle if it was right.

    The reason it sounds smart to people is because THEY have been reduced to the level of “Idiocracy” and any sentence above “My foot and your -ss” sounds “like a fag high-falutin’ and your s—ts all retarded.” That is, if you could speak with 6th grade competency from 1980, you’d be today’s genius (and they would jail you). And you’d be above every person graduated in Baltimore over the last 10 years.

    Germ: how stupid do they think we are? Apparently just as stupid as we ACTUALLY are. You don’t see anyone catching on and getting mad, do you? Like Idiocracy, we’ve already seen pop-ups with people mad at US and not the doctors injecting people with pure, instant death. Fighting, violently, the people preventing their death. What can I say? I guess they like it and approve.

    Meanwhile, Lula shows his finger to the US.

    Two Iranian warships have docked in Rio de Janeiro despite pressure from the US to bar them.

    We need more leaders like Lula to tell the US to mind its own business.

    Lula is a WEF shill, but the CIA has managed to stop the Brazilian army from killing him after the CIA fixed it for him to win the election. Lula cannot stop the Iranian warships, the army wants to host the Iranian warships so Lula has to cave in, beg forgiveness from his USA handlers, then claim he is fighting back against imperialism. It is all rather pathetic, but Lula is a puppet, like Biden, he will do what he is told.

    “West” has been telling Z to withdraw. They portray it as his fight, not theirs, so they can’t lose face. But he can. Maybe the way out for him is attacking Crimea, saying that’s the bigger battle. He also started talking about American kids dying in Ukraine battles.

    Surely only minority kids, the blacks, Jews, mexicans etc should fight for the USA, the whites are too fat and supremacist to fight. What would you do if you were called up? I would definitely not enroll, I would be across the border within 24 hours. Why should I be a murderer for the neo-cons? If they want to go a murdering people who are no threat to the USA then they should do it themselves, not turn me into some neo-con servant like Tulsi Gabbard.

    George Carlin said that you have to be asleep to believe in the American dream. The military is just a short extension of that logic, the American people have a view of their military that is totally detached from the reality that the rest of the world sees.

    Some other Western mercenaries also directly told him: “The Russians aren’t the Nazis, we are the Nazis,” according to McIntyre.

    Which just tells you that mercenaries should be hanged. Being a Nazi to protect your family is one thing, doing it to earn money is a different thing entirely, but many US forces will be in Ukraine being Nazis.

    Wait until insurance companies have to change their long term mortality assumptions…that’s when the real losses get realized.

    Why won’t the blood drinking Satanists who run all the rackets currently simply BAILOUT the insurance mafia with boat loads of newly minted printed ‘money’ like they routinely bailout the MSMediawhores????

    All the current corporate Presstitutes don’t make enough money to balance their books, they get ‘money’ directly from the central government or from Big Pharma ‘advertising’ useless, harmful products on their censored platforms.

    The Empire of Lies is keystroke printing more ‘money’ than it actually collects in taxes to ‘balance’ the budget.

    Just bailout every industrial corporate mafia racket with fake ‘money’.

    It’s still working right now.

    It seems it can go on forever

    ‘Money’ printing.

    The Insurance Mafia will just be another corporate whore with a hand full of gimme and a mouthful of much obliged.

    There isn’t an ounce of intelligence in “artificial intelligence”. It’s not intelligence, it’s machine learning. We need to wrap our heads around that and stop running around like our hair is on fire over the concept of AI.

    Still remember learning WAY back, while attending a college course on computing … garbage in, garbage out. Can’t wait to see the fall out once AI, chatbots, or whatever it’s called … is hacked by a skilled hacker or group of hackers or just about anyone with the time and desire. Now that will be entertaining indeed.

    If the past 3 years have taught us anything, it’s that being irrationally fearful is almost the worst thing we can do to mitigate damage.

    Your business advice, is it sage or sophomoric?

    Are all monopolies successful? And for whom?

    Written elsewhere today. Go to one of 8 universities and become a centimillionaire: Stanford Harvard Yale Cornell MIT Princeton Penn and Columbia.

    My fateful decision was eschewing (who uses that word ever at all in routine speech? Probably John Day and AFKTT I bet) a football scholarship to Penn in favor of the Nation’s financed free-ride to play football at USNA. Find the errors in that run on sentence.
    OTOH, Who gives a poor kid with an IQ a 6-figure loan to attend college where they mint centimillionaires?

    Indeed, no one knows the U.S military.
    Here’s one for John Day. Our LtColonel Marine CO announces that I’m flying the first “combat” mission as H2P with him. He hates me his flight surgeon. Dell Barnewell, 1LT, says “No!”. Who prevails, First Lieutenant or commanding officer?

    @Dr D Rich, by way of explanation: When I excerpt an article on my blog I italicise the excerpt. That does not show up when I transfer it to this comments section. It looks as if the quotation may be my own comment at times, as yesterday in the article about Hersh. It was not my comment, just the paragraph that completed the title with an answer.
    My comment was that there was more to it than that, but that it was an interesting take, and that Hersh is instrumental in history and may be similarly likeable to Henry K.

    You wrote:
    “Hersh’s My Lai did nothing to curb the rise of Colin Powell…”cover-upper”. Calley and Medina, well, that’s history too.

    Hersh’s Chain of Command did nothing for one Tom Pappas and little hurt for General Karpinski? and it made the rest of the military choose sides with the murderers and torturers;

    segue to Murtha’s vilification and murder at Walter Reed in 2010. The latter solidified the fraudulent sinking of my career.

    So, convince me Hersh genuinely pricked anyone in power since once again Seymour has yet to pay the price Murtha, Assange, Kirakou, Ritter, Jeffrey Sterling so?, Watada, Darby, Assange paid”

    I do not disputeanything you wrote.

    In principle, chatbots are the death knell for search engines, which were the earlier death knell for propaganda. We are in the midst of this new epistemic change, and it is unclear what AI chatbots can and cannot do. For the time being, a good chatbot acts like a good (albeit a little dull) librarian and, at the same time, a meticulous editorial assistant (again, a rather dull one). But, in principle, a good chatbot can bypass the shadow-banning of the search engines: they are much more powerful and sophisticated tools for searching information on the Web. They work on the same principle as the old oracles: they pay for information with information. Every time you ask the bot a question, you provide it with a precious element of information.

    East Palestine Plants Suspend Operations as Workers Get Sick

    The EPA is testing for some toxins but not for dioxins. The workers believed the EPA tests which said it was safe to return to work.

    “some employees repeatedly suffer the same symptoms each time they return to work for a couple of days. They had returned to work once the evacuation order was lifted, believing when they were told it was safe, and again after another air test at the plant showed no signs of problems.”

    With employees continuing to suffer ill effects since the train derailment now more than three weeks ago, CeramFab and two of its affiliated plants in East Palestine have been forced to cease manufacturing – again.

    The situation is most serious for CeramFab on East Taggart Street, according to plant manager Howard Yang. Employees at that 80,000-square-foot plant next to the derailment site, have suffered the most health issues with some reporting a medical diagnosis of chemical bronchitis. The company’s other plant, which houses CeramSource and WYG Refractories, is less than a mile from the train derailment site. It has seen employees suffer rashes and respiratory issues.

    Yang said some employees repeatedly suffer the same symptoms each time they return to work for a couple of days. They had returned to work once the evacuation order was lifted, believing when they were told it was safe, and again after another air test at the plant showed no signs of problems.

    Dr D:
    know HOW, we just won’t do it. And that can be just as simple as going Amish, buying less, choosing companies of your friends and good people. That requires a spiritual change. You can of course tear the country apart, but that’s messy. If you can’t change WITHOUT tearing the country apart,

    Odd fact: when I was a teen, I studied frugality. I know, kind of weird, but I purchased The Complete Tightwad Gazette from a book club’s introductory deal (then canceled the subscription,) read it cover to cover twice, and made notes in the margins. I still have the 300+ page book.

    During the past 11 years my income has never been more than barely above half the federal poverty limit for my family size. There have been months when there was very, very little money to meet our needs and months when there was enough plus a smidgen to spare. I have applied the lessons in frugality that I studied as a teen. During the lean times, periods of “enforced frugality,” I would find myself growing resentful of the extreme measures I took to avoid taking on debt. During the less lean times, I took pleasure in shopping at thrift stores or grabbing items that were useful to me out of bulk trash piles, pleased with my own frugality — acquiring what I needed or wanted while spending as little as possible is like a game against “The System.”

    So here is the rub, which the WEFfers don’t seem to understand: when people are pushed against their will into deprivation, they will grow resentful, no matter the cause — whether it be due to natural disaster, war, their own ineptitude, inexplicable policies regarding the use of petroleum products, etc. When people discover that others, who did not suffer deprivation, were the deliberate cause of their deprivation, they are likely to become very, very angry. On the other hand, when people believe in a principle, and then adjust their behavior to accommodate adherence to that principle, the changes do not feel like deprivation.

    So, originally the WEFfers seemed to believe that by controlling the masses’ access to information that they could control what the masses believed, and therefore induce the masses to voluntarily reduce their carbon footprint, replace meat with vegetable protein and bugs, and get jabbed. On many fronts this works — especially for the short term. But propaganda, no matter how crafty, is not as genuine as deeply held beliefs and personal values. So, the WEFfers, finding that they have exhausted the carrot, are resorting to the stick — enforced deprivation by sabotaging the systems that provide plenty for the people. I suspect that the WEFfers don’t understand the depth of resentment and hatred that the stick will engender in the people. Or they believe that they can “manage” the resentment of the people. I don’t think that such resentment can be “well-managed” over the long term.

    What you described, was exactly what I saw in communist run USSR in 1983. The people were always promised things would be better, in the next 5 year plan, if they would just continue to deprive themselves today. Utopia was always just around the corner. It never came.

    Meanwhile anyone who could, gardened intensively, to provide themselves with food the government wouldn’t/couldn’t provide.

    Then in 1991, 8 years later, communism hit the wall, because the people had quietly all quit working hard long ago.

    Spirals downward spirals, fun if they’re water slides. I fear they forgot to fill the pool!

    A new report reveals the US’ largest power grid is shuttering power generation units faster than new supply can be brought online, threatening electric reliability in 13 states that stretch from Illinois to New Jersey with over 65 million customers.

    Here are the key highlights of the report:

    The growth rate of electricity demand is likely to continue to increase from electrification coupled with the proliferation of high-demand data centers in the region.
    Thermal generators are retiring at a rapid pace due to government and private sector policies as well as economics.
    Retirements are at risk of outpacing the construction of new resources, due to a combination of industry forces, including siting and supply chain, whose long-term impacts are not fully known.
    PJM’s interconnection queue is composed primarily of intermittent and limited-duration resources. Given the operating characteristics of these resources, we need multiple megawatts of these resources to replace 1 MW of thermal generation.
    The report warned:

    “For the first time in recent history, PJM could face decreasing reserve margins should these trends continue.”

    A significant problem with the ‘green transition’ is adding renewable power, such as solar and wind, are unreliable forms of power generation. Combining this with rapidly retiring fossil fuel power generation units will reduce generating capacity by about 21% through 2030. The report pointed out that the current pace of adding new power generation wouldn’t compensate for the retirement of coal- and natural gas-fired generation amid soaring demand.

    More drain circling activities.

    What is the answer? Schiff says, “We have to let the phony economy collapse so we can build a real economy on the rubble of this economic house of cards.”

    There are going to be lots of losers in the coming collapse. Schiff says, “People are going to suffer the consequences of this experiment gone bad. . . . We know how this experiment is going to end. They are not doing anything that Zimbabwe didn’t try, or Argentina didn’t try or the Weimar Republic. They didn’t reinvent inflation. It’s the same old thing.”

    FDR & Biden:

    Both are doing the exact same things. They are completely ignoring what the people want, listening only to the bankers.

    1. FDR raised gold’s dollar price from $20 something to $35 to create instant inflation. Biden signed on first day in office Build Back Better to boost inflation. American people do not want higher inflation.

    2. FDR told Poland not to give Germany a corridor to Prussia, starting WW2. FDR deliberately pushed Japan into a war with the US. Biden pushed US into war with Russia. Both ignoring American’s desire for peace. Both pushed hard for war.

    History repeats.

    Interesting direction of AI. It’s an ill wind that blows no good.

    Someone figured out that just putting some fresh gravel on the tracks wasn’t good enough.

    Ohio governor visits train derailment site as track removal set to begin
    Hazardous waste may be hiding under the train tracks at the derailment site.

    …The track removal is a change from Norfolk Southern’s original plan, which did not include tearing up the tracks.

    As grandparents, we are doing what we can to supplement the R,W,A, and the mental/learning blockage that are not addressed, encountered in school.
    I expect that the grandkids will still listen to us until they reach the teen years.
    Hopefully, they will be able to outwit the chatbots.

    May I also recommend teaching them about how an internet browser functions, how to type in a web address, how to touch-type, to use bookmarks, how to create their own password system rather than just letting the browser remember them. Teach them to go over privacy settings, and know what they are installing and accepting. These skills are not being taught in school — technology is simply thrust at the children.

    I like how they announced they have a new bus that can do tests in the bus for real time results but are not publically releasing these results. A dog and pony show of “Oh, look shiny object!” while covering up everything. Nothing has changed. Depend upon government at your own risk.

    What if rejecting the “Narrative” for it being false involved accepting instead the truth that one’s self was party to grave child abuse, treason and attempted genocide ?

    What if belief in an insanely unrealistic story was necessary to getting the masses to continue obeying orders to collaborate in massive illegalities which spanned the entire range of criminality?

    One of the things that holds “mass formation” insanity in place is personal guilt.

    Yes!
    There is a lot to do.
    I’m hoping most of your list will be done by their parents and aunts.
    ( I want job of supervising, 🙂 )
