    Banksy Show me the Monet 2005

    Banksy is brilliant; his art is a psychological statement of us and our times…
    Of course there are those who can only see worth in $ signs…all the sadder for them…they are always to be on the outside looking in…never to be in

    Citing James O’Keefe positively at the end of an edition that references Borat negatively is confusing at best. Both are entrapment schmucks who denigrate genuine investigative journalism via rank pranksterism. Julian Assange both of them are not, and both of them would sell Assange down the river for funding for their next project.

    I know we live in interesting times but that’s no excuse to add needless sensationalism into the mix. These times that are a-changing are interesting enough without political drag queens.

    Where will the “more than $8 billion” come from?
    Hint: Cost of drugs going up.

    “Drugmaker Purdue Pharma, the company behind the powerful prescription painkiller OxyContin that experts say helped touch off an opioid epidemic, will plead guilty to federal criminal charges as part of a settlement of more than $8 billion,…..
    The Sacklers will lose all control over their company, a move already in the works, and Purdue will become a public benefit company, meaning it will be governed by a trust that has to balance the trust’s interests against those of the American public and public health, officials said. “

    Iran, China, Russia, want Trump to win election.
    It must be true. It was on TV

    FBI Director Christopher Wray has warned that Russia is interfering in the 2020 US presidential elections with a steady stream of misinformation aimed at denigrating Democratic candidate Joe Biden as well as sapping Americans’ confidence in the election process.

    New Biden Biz Partner Emerges, Confirms “Big Guy” Joe Directly Involved In China Deal
    “My name is Tony Bobulinski. The facts set forth below are true and accurate; they are not any form of domestic or foreign disinformation. Any suggestion to the contrary is false and offensive. I am the recipient of the email published seven days ago by the New York Post, which showed a copy to Hunter Biden and Rob Walker. That email is genuine.’ -New York Post

    https://nypost.com/2020/10/22/hunter-biz-partner-confirms-e-mail-details-joe-bidens-push-to-make-millions-from-china/
    Bobulinski, a former wrestler at Penn State University who spent four years in the Navy, insists he has voluminous evidence to back up his explosive charges, reportedly including documents, emails, messages and other proof.

    Late Wednesday, he uploaded many to a file-sharing service.

    He also says he turned over all his evidence Wednesday to two Senate committees that requested it.

    It can be really hard to know what is actually important in life. We get bombarded with advertising, which is made by experts in human psychology, and we feel like things they show us are important. We talk to other people, and they feel like it’s important, but we might not agree on whether it’s good or bad, because it might look good or bad for us, but different for them.
    Also, some things are so big and vast, that it is hard to comprehend what the implications are for us, and hard to see what role we might even play. We’re just swept along, like everybody else. Global warming, 9/11 and the Kennedy assassinations can be like that.
    Peak oil? Did it happen already? What’re you calling “oil”, anyway?
    What about well-water. T. Boone Pickens called water “the new oil”. What did he mean?
    Is it against God to say that exponential growth on a finite planet is ending because of math? Which god?
    Could you live a good life without electricity and running water? How much of your own food have you tried growing? How does it make you feel to grow your food? Do other animals take it before it’s ready?
    If you died today would you be satisfied.
    Yeah, I know. I’m looking at the US Presidential Election circus, too.
    We all feel frozen in anticipation.
    Whatever I can do is my own damned responsibility to do, whatever group of overlords owns my body in January.
    I own my life.

    ‘Covid-19 study on mask-wearing efficacy rejected by journals as no one is ‘brave’ enough to publish results – Danish researchers’:

    A large-scale study in Denmark that sought to determine if masks help stop the spread of Covid-19 has been rejected by several prestigious journals. The authors hinted that their findings were inconvenient to the status quo.

    The Lancet, the New England Journal of Medicine, and the American Medical Association Journal all turned down the paper, Danish media reported on Thursday.

    The study, which began in late April, involved 6,000 Danes, half of whom were asked to wear masks at all times in public places. The other half were selected as a control group and were instructed not to cover their faces. After a month, participants were tested for Covid-19 as well as for antibodies against the virus.

    The study’s researchers have remained tight-lipped about their findings, but they’ve dropped plenty of clues that suggest it was the paper’s conclusion, not its methodology, that led to the journals’ rejections..”

    With a real *control group, in the same environment*, and everything.. odd. 😉

    ““In Spain, for example, 83% of the 85,000 businesses that have collapsed since February employ fewer than five workers.”

    Can’t stop now, there’s still some “cases” without deaths, from a faulty test, left to profit from. We can’t stop until there is only the Plantation and the Company Store. …And the slave-class, of course. AKA Those-who-once-were-middle-class. Who now are food-banks-with-smashed-windows. Number of headlines about this, about businesses, about young suicides, about infants not getting care due to quarantine in Aus. About top doctors saying this approach is non-scientific and counterproductive, about the WHO and CDC agreeing. About 60 years of non-stop data. About pics on masks saying they are not medical. Didn’t bother. Nothing new. I’ve said it, said it said it said it since January. No one cares.

    “Russia is interfering in the 2020 US presidential elections with a steady stream” …of telling the truth. Like 2016. We must fight! This truth is making us look bad and making Americans think politicians are corrupt! They’re not! Wikipedia debunked it. All Congressmen for the last 50 years just found a lot of loose change on the sidewalks of D.C., THAT’S how they became overnight millionaires a year after election.

    MEDIA BIAS RULES?

    Ignoring the ‘merits’ of the candidates I would be unhappy if Biden won purely because it could be put down to media bias, both MSM and Social Media. It should not be the media which determines the outcome of elections.

    This bias is now losing any subltety! I am not sure if this is overconfidence or desperation.

    On the other hand if Trump wins after more than four years of extremely biased reporting and social media censorship it will be a big blow against the oligarchs who appear to control the Democratic Party.

    If Trump loses I am sure there will be an ‘Iron Curtain’ imposed on US politics to ensure that an outsider like Trump can NEVER have a chance of becoming president again!

    ‘I’m almost starting to think this whole pandemic really is a conspiracy: Our continuing oppressive response to a virus that almost every human survives is making less and less sense’:

    “..Eight months on, my burning question remains unanswered. What is really going on? About 50 millon people die each year worldwide. Some deaths are preventable, others not. Over the course of 2020, this pandemic has claimed 1.1 million lives; most of whom were elderly or already ill. Heart disease kills 17 million annually; cancer 9.6 million. Respiratory diseases, including bronchitis, pneumonia and emphysema take 2.5 million lives a year.

    Why then, are we still playing this ridiculously destructive game with healthy peoples’ lives – a risky experiment that, as is starting to emerge, will very likely kill more people than it saves in the long run?..”

    That last point is the important, essentially unreported-on one: what the lockdowns (who chose that particular word, and why?) are doing *to* the great majority of the world’s citizenries.

    The problem is everything in America is now staged with an eye on selling you something. Maybe it’s just selling your attention to an advertiser or data-mining outfit. Maybe it’s selling an ersatz slogan like “we’re all in this together” to placate the herd being led to slaughter.

    Maybe it’s phony membership in a movement that masks the few taking advantage of the many with a bogus ideological rallying cry. Maybe it’s a so-called “panel of experts” offering up soothing assurances that this highly addictive opioid is incredibly profitable– oops, did I say that? I meant “safe.” It’s incredibly safe.

    “Maybe”

    Lots of maybes in that one. I like it! A wise man told me many years ago, “ Do not expect one single outcome little grasshopper…. but… have MUCH expectation”.

    I spun that as I gained experience into ‘intelligence makes coincidence and serendipity meaningful’. Adapt…create… endure. In any order that pleases.

    Quit your sniveling ( rhetorical not you!). Best intel is bound in failure. Don’t give your power to fear. Lots of observation and collapsing of the wave function going on…. not much creating. Kids are blowing shit up ….. wrong thing … right reason…. MAYBE

    Life to be lived, peeps to be loved…. fun and adventure to be had. Not many talking about what they themselves learned from that.

    The core problem in this pandemic is that masks and social distancing are supposed to replace universal testing and contact tracing in order to know who is infected and isolating them humanely while they shed the virus. Within months, the virus would be eradicate. At best a mask only mitigates some of the risk from interaction with others who are infected. Only public health and functional government are guaranteed to end the coronavirus pandemic. A for-profit vaccine could be Snake Eyes in the Big Casino next year. Due to ideology and greed, the West’s rulers are not going to fund public health or expand government service. Donald Trump is the perfect anti know-it-all. The White House is a super-spreader site. His opponent, a member of the dying Silent Generation just may become the first and last of his generation to be President. This no choice election has to be on purpose. The rich are getting richer.
