I’m a little late here, but what a superb column, Ilargi, and what wonderful responses.
Michael Reid- an excellent post.
It’s nice to see you back in your saddle, Dr D.Oz- I suspect almost anyone can be threatened, including Assange’s team (or has a price, as zerosum says). And while it is true that they hold his plight over any investigative reporter’s or whistleblower’s head, and make us suspicious of people who are “allowed” to still expose the rot in governments, I have to think that the most important reason he is still alive, and still tortured, is because he has not divulged his “kill switch” code. They want what he has in his files.
The more this drags on, the more those who are paying attention realize how desperate the diktocrats are. The dirt must be very dirty, and they are clearly terrified of its exposure. That is a weakness on their part.
Assange is a remarkable man.
“Kill switch” can probably be replaced by a better word- the files would dump, not disappear.
Assange is nearing true sainthood. That, too, terrifies them.“Punctured lung”. This may be a very poor choice of words, as “punctured” implies the necessity of an object to do the puncturing. Did their ribs break?
On the TV show “House”, a pneumothorax emergency can be (dramatically) fixed with a large syringe inserted directly into the chest: a puncture that allows air back into a collapsed lung. There is no application of a ventilator, but the word “puncture” becomes relevant, at least. The disclaimer “even among those who were not put on a ventilator”, becomes disingenuous, however.A late poem for the ghosts of the morning, apropos for the eve (my time).
Do y’all abroad know it’s marked on a US calendar as “Patriot Day”?The test is the virus.
The virus is a test.
And while you learn obedience
They’ll do their level best
To strip you of your courage
And all that you hold dear,
But they will reimburse you-
They’ll make you rich with fear.And in that zombie state you’ll find
The comfort of the empty mind.The test was the physics.
The physics was a test.
And while you all were terrified
They did their level best
To strip of of you freedom,
Your privacy, your rights,
But hey! They reimbursed you-
They gave you restless nights.While you were taking off your shoes
They entertained you with the news.Goodnight, m’dears.
Okay okay- Deagel… (sheepishly). I was wrong. My numbers are wrong. I did misunderstand them. Javascript helps.
Still, the US comes off BAD. Down 70 %.. And it’s a whole new Deagel.Anyone who thinks this “virus” is about public health anymore is naive.
Even the economy doesn’t matter ’cause the “übermensch” LOVE the economy.
Remember how they felt drastic measures were needed to “fix” the climate?
On that low note, has anyone checked out Deagel lately? It’s updated and the numbers are shocking. Mexico, China, Japan, and Iran are nearly depopulated. The US has come up a bit, dropping only 99M.
The big surprise is India rising 1.34M. All still for 2025. Doom porn at it’s best, and breathing heavily down your neck.
I may be misinterpreting it. The little explanation at the bottom is gone.Don’t blame incompetence when greed will explain it.
Stop trusting people who don’t deserve it.I hate to point this out, but Biden gave himself his best campaign slogan in yesterday’s “speech”.
“The future is made in America”. It beats the pants off of anything he’s had yet.
And it has a wicked double meaning.I watched some of the vaccine hearings today on cspan: How can they reassure the public that the vaccine(s) are safe?
Not once did someone say: the companies will be held liable for their vaccine’s efficacy and safety.Nope. Not a word even close to it.
Gee, Zucker likes Trump? Who’da thought? Ka-ching!
I laughed out loud at 2am when I heard Trump was the winner in 2016.
I watched Watergate hearings (skipped school to do it); I watched Iran/contra (still have the tapes)…Nothing comes of anything. I’m not holding my breath on Durham. But I can dream.So it’s time for that joke:
A man sat on his roof as the floodwaters rose around him. A boy with an extra life vest swam by: “C’mon! We can swim!,” he cried. “No thanks,” said the man, “Jesus will save me.”
Then a man in a canoe paddled by. “C’mon! Hop in!,” he cried. “no thanks,” said the man. “Jesus will save me.”
A helicopter spotted him and sent down a rope. “C’mon!,” cried the pilot. “Grab the rope!” “no thanks,” said the man, “Jesus will save me.”
Standing before the Lord, the man asked “Why didn’t you save me?”
Jesus said: “I sent a boy with a life vest, a man in a canoe, and a helicopter with a rope! What more did you want?”Change “flood” to “virus”. Change “life vest” to “socializing”, change “canoe” to “Sunshine and/or Vitamin D”; change “helicopter” to”HCQ+ zinc”….and you can even keep Jesus if you want.
Okay. So I can hyperlink over at Off-G. But here I’ll just try and hint at it. Over at architects and engineers for nine eleven truth there is a subset called justice rising- there will be a symposium there this weekend starting Friday. Those who sneer at this can ignore this message.
That day was the day they tested the spookability and gullibility levels of the general population. And now, here we are.That photo is film noir.
Julian Assange’s life has become the same, except he has been questioned under the light and roughed up for so long the audience went home. Does anyone expect MSM journalists to speak up? What average MSM news consumer even knows what’s going on?
How do good people make him human when he has been so dehumanized?
He is just another victim of the plutocrats, as nearly all of us are, now. The severity of his abuse only figures as a reminder of how bad it can get if we cross the line. He is a figure in a morality play- a film noir.Something clicked a couple days ago. I am fed up. Even the CDC is ‘fessing up, yet the MSM doubles down and proudly shows toddlers (some crying) scrambling on to a kindergarten school bus in their masks. My heart is broken. We will torture the children to keep adults “safe”.
It has always been so.
We’re so stupidly terrified in the US we’re willing to throw the election into chaos because the polls aren’t “safe”. This is individual selfishness at its pinnacle.
No wonder so few care about Assange.“double in US, triple in world by Jan 1”
Ferguson- is that you?
It’s nice, though, that the flu, rhinovirus, adenovirus, plain old coronavirus, atypical pneumonia, etc. will have totally disappeared!“Hobson’s Choice” is also a delightful 1954 British film with Charles Laughton and Brenda de Banzie.
The virus IS the PCR test. It was convenient that they also allowed symptoms without the test. (why not atypical pneumonia? It looks like the virus!), but with the BS “cases” now, it is all PCR. You aren’t told how many cycles are done. Even the NYT wrote that the number of cycles was too often too many (40 instead of 30) resulting in false positives. Then there are the admissions that the tests find any old coronavirus; and then again they are finding “dead” virus and showing it as positive. Poor Kary Mullis. It’s lucky for the scaremongers that he died so conveniently in August last year.
John Yoo. [shivers]. How do recognize a bad guy? They torture. How do you recognize a really bad guy? They see torture as pragmatic.
I haven’t read today’s yet, and I am off to the pontoon- summer is fading quickly and I have to get som vitamin D. Later.
Oh, and the video I reference yesterday was liberal, white America’s worst nightmare. Trevor Noah once suggested the second amendment would be amended right quick if this happened.Oh! Bold worked! But I tried linking a word to this site and it wouldn’t work. But definitely this is a step in the right direction.
Ilargi- I have no idea. When I do as instructed (highlight text, hit link, copy url, etc), the link shows up in html, and the post won’t post. I can’t even put in the spelled out name of the url- the post won’t post. I am amazed that I am the only person in my crowd that posts at all or I would seek help. (I can’t do italics or bold, either.)
Sorry- nobody likes blind “links”. It’s a rap video/trump ad. I have a suspicion you’ll come across it somewhere else.
Over at the Slog (“Trump vs Biden”) there is a video that may be of some interest. Thanks to kbx66.
I think there are some surprises ahead this election season.
I still can’t hyperlink- the realslog should get you there.The 1947 National Security Act indemnified criminal behavior in “peacetime” in the name of “national security”. Sociopaths rule. It’s “patriotic”. Lies become rabbit holes for those who think they can make sense of anything.
Put succinctly: ‘That’s not the way the world really works anymore,’ he continued. ‘We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors…and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do’.This is attributed to Karl Rove.
The reality based community is sooo yesterday.
“Imagine an impossible alternate universe”
Every night I go to sleep hoping I wake up in that alternate universe. I can’t for the life of me figure out how I ended up in this one.How do we stop the unravelling of the fabric? Ignore the virus. If you think you are vulnerable, take care of yourself. Let humans get back to real normal. When people can’t discuss things, ideas rot in their heads; if ideas are shared, they can ferment into fine wines.
A couple of sprouted organic potatoes has turned into 12 pounds of gorgeous spuds, and that was only half of the 6′ x 3′ bed. We going to scrounge up a couple of tykes to help us with the next half- we have a feeling they will be as delighted as we were digging up the treasures of the earth.
The password chart is great- but how long does it take the government to get in?
It is wonderful we have finally made use of the ability to work from home, but what happens to the skyscraper office buildings? I do not approve of the way they demolished them last time a few of them needed to come down.
The WHO safeguarding world health? You must mean the band.
“…a little cash left over” after selling their house doesn’t sound like enough for gas for their new “home” let alone rent.Bye-bye Abe. A bit of good news!

Where’s my party?
The more people pile on the Biden bandwagon (“McCain Alums for Biden”?!) the more I despair for what was once the Democratic Party.I love that sat-fat article! It’s nice to know in retrospect what a healthy diet I have had all along.
Hillary needs to go suck a synthetic, cholesterol-free egg. Why won’t she go away?Okay- I’m going try this- John Day did you find “covidisinfectant”? (I haven’t been able to post that word before.)
btw- you are not blathering. You are thinking in print. I also don’t think you are hiding behind any curtain, are you? You seem to be a remarkably up front person.
Sweet dreams. Everyone.The silence of the democrats: I think this really matters. How hard is it to condemn anarchy and threat to lives and property?
I want my Democratic Farmer Labor party back. Anybody out there that still sees labor as an asset?Eddie- if the virus is so incredibly contagious, how have you and your people avoided getting it?
Ilargi- thanks for this. Disease we will have with us always. Freedom to be human is constantly under siege.
Teri- why would Ilargi know?
Glennda- sometimes we pick internet monikers capriciously. Sometimes- like Mister Roboto- we are spot on when we choose them.
One more time: why are we ignoring deaths, and now counting “cases” (positive tests), instead? It must be that we are recognizing how a bigger denominator means the virus has done what viruses do. They come, they go.Yes, John Day. Ward set it up and has been writing some pretty chuckly columns about what a mess it is to do so. I don’t understand the FF thing.
Go to his post “Covid19 A Hub for Truth…” and he explains it further. (Though in his own way, he is still amusingly obscure).“The celestial object known as 2018VP1 is projected to come close to Earth on November 2, according to the Center for Near Earth Objects Studies at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory….The chance of it hitting us is just 0.41%, data show.” from the un-esteemable CNN.
At only 6.5 feet across, it still poses a greater danger to most people than Covid.When they draw those maps of brains, where is politics? I’m thinking maybe not the brain at all, but somewhere halfway down.
I went to the farmer’s market this morning and saw two- and three- year olds wearing masks. Masks are bad enough- masks on toddlers is sheer evil. Of course, I also saw a cartoon-themed kiddie mask on the sidewalk- I want to vote for that toddler.No. Male fertility was already tanking. Covid (TM) is not the reason. The “novel” (TM) magical coronavirus is the only one left in the diagnosis toolbox, so go ahead and believe it.
“Data is the new oil”? Your medical data was off-limits, so of course, it’s the data the pharmers want most of all.
How hideous mankind is! O cowardly new world, that has such people in ‘t!John Day- It’s amazing that I can’t even type “dot com” and get the thing to post (fingers crossed). Check his august 12 post “binary brain damage” for the link.
“Bourdain quote…”- as I mentioned on July 29th.
“…lots of hugging, talking, and laughing,” she stressed.
This has to stop! No hugging! No talking! No LAUGHING!!!!!!John Day- think how complacent some doctors will be when they are all exempt from lawsuits. It puzzles me why supplements are not just ignored by doctors, but often derided. BTW, Medcram is a delightful time sink. College for free!
Check out ZH: A “Novel” Breakthrough? New Studies Show Memory T-Cells Offer Long Term And Pre-Existing COVID Immunity
Do I think this will change draconian policies?
NO LAUGHING!!!!!So many new names these last weeks! Rah, Ilargi!
Why would media want to give up the gravy train that is The Donald? Why would the dems want to give up their role as gadflies? Why would anyone want to take the blame for what is about to happen in the economy? Maybe a master of bankruptcy is what the doctor ordered?
Meanwhile…. from ZH “A “Novel” Breakthrough? New Studies Show Memory T-Cells Offer Long Term And Pre-Existing COVID Immunity”:
…”many people who never had COVID-19 seem to have memory T cells that can recognize the new virus. This, of course, would mean that the virus isn’t a “novel” as we once thought.”
Maybe now we’ll try and find out what has been causing those who are hospitalized to suffer such poor outcomes.
nah.
I saw a doctor today, and (as I did last time I saw one) I asked if she would remove her mask so I could see her face. She said: “I am delighted that you asked that! Of course I’ll remove it.”
A good doctor. I am trying to collect them for future reference.James Lindsay has many articles up over a “NewDiscourses” (dotcom). I’ve spent numerous hours there, and the comments are high quality, as well. The webpage covers everything “critical social justice”.
The photo. Blimp[s]. It was a good year for the man.
The irony is politically incorrect, I think, as is most irony nowadays.I wonder why an anti-helminth (parasitic worms) drug works against a coronavirus. HCQ is also an anti parasitic drug. Maybe this says something about what we are really dealing with here.
At least HCQ is for treating a blood parasite.Kamala. Ugh.

For what it’s worth. I haven’t finished reading it yet, but perhaps others might also find it interesting.
Mr. House- CJ Hopkins is spot-on, as usual.I wish someone would make some rules about the federal elections- like, no ballots after Nov3; counting will be tallied by the 10th, “winner” announced the 11th. I’d like to think that on this, at least, the partisan wall would cease to exist.
I can dream, can’t I?
