Guest Post by The Zman
Steve Sailer famously quipped that political correctness is a war on noticing. By which he meant noticing human diversity. Initially, this started out as a war on noticing bad things about groups of people. Then it slowly evolved into prohibitions on noticing general differences between groups of people. After all, it was said, all people evolved from the same source. This process has continued to the point where it is now forbidden to notice anything about people.
A good example is in this tweet from the Journal of the American Medical Association, which is the premier peer-reviewed medical journal in the United States. Since the start of the Covid panic, it has been reported that blacks are more likely to contract the virus and more likely to need medical attention. This observation has been politicized, of course, but it is also a clue as to how the virus works. Naturally, there is money to find out why and scientific interest in the subject.
Given the racial unrest that has been manufactured by the nation’s elites, one would think that extra resources flowing into the care of black people would be celebrated by the great and good. If we are remaking movies, television shows and commercials to feature all black people, why not remake medical research too? As you can see from the replies, dogma trumps everything. While racism is a real thing, according to the one true faith, race is imaginary and racist.
The very first reply is emblematic of the modern age. It is from someone calling herself Rose Marie Leslie, MD. She claims to be a medical resident. On her twitter profile she lists the following: Top 20 docs on Social Media, Tiktok, Health Ed, Social Justice, Black Lives Matter and Repro Health. As if that was not enough self-parody, her comment was “Why are you spending the time and money on these studies instead of spending the time and money on fighting racism?”
Just below that comment we have a comment from someone calling herself Ramla N. Kasozi MD, MPH. They do not list their pronouns, so we must assume it is female, based on the profile picture. Mx. Ramla wrote, “An example of Biological Racism as discussed by Dr.@haw95 in her book ‘Medical Apartheid’ and Dr.@DrIbram book ‘How To Be Antiracist’.” According to Mx. Kasozi, noticing that Covid infects blacks more than whites is a form of racist experimentation.
In such a cornucopia of lunacy, it is hard to select the most bizarre, but the replies from someone calling herself Karen Gibbins, MD are a good nominee. Her first comment in the thread was, “Attributing genetic variants to race (which is socially constructed) is racist. Stop.” She then quickly replied to herself with, “And systemic racism is why there is why BIPOC are disproportionately harmed by COVID-19.” Racism, the cause of and cure for everything that is wrong in the world.
While these sorts of public displays of insanity are amusing, the salient issue here is the insane people highlighted are doctors. They work with real human patients in real medical settings. That means people are trusting doctors who think biology is imaginary and human diversity is a conspiracy. Given the histrionics, it is not implausible to think that a few of these people think sex is a social construct. Imagine being treated by someone who thinks your penis is a figment of your imagination.
The other salient issue is the panic that radiates from the replies. The mere mention of disconfirming data causes these people to panic. Their complaint is not about factual accuracy or medical efficacy. These are people deeply committed to a primitive animistic religion. This religion tells them that the world is controlled by various spirit forces, good and evil, engaged in a great struggle. Most important, their role in this great struggle is to fight the evil spirits.
Their commitment to this new faith is so complete that in the name of fighting racism, they would happily let blacks die from disease. If the price of helping the people they claim to care so much about is the acknowledgment that nature does not distribute her gifts equally among people or groups of people, then they are perfectly willing to see those people suffer and die. In fact, the suffering is a confirmation that these evil spirits are real and therefor the struggle is real.
The striking thing about this new faith is it is so primitive. These people are a very long way from the Christian looking up from Scripture and contemplating how God set the world in motion. These are people cowering in the darkness, deathly afraid to know what lies behind the movements of the world. Theirs is a world haunted by dread and foreboding, not a world of miracles to be explored. This is the great darkness that is settling on this age, the new dark age of the West.

A primitive faith is perfect for primitive people:
Nothing a few claymores and a couple M-60s couldn’t fix
Pehaps these “physicians” should return to more of the enlightened original healing methodologies peculiar to their peoples i.e. VooDoo, Obeah, Witch doctoring, shamanism, and be free of the shackles of structural systemic rayssism, White privilege, and Western science.
I read about 20 of the tweets. Truly = “the New Dark Age of the West” as you stated. I am so glad all my Drs are at least 50.
Good news, they’re going to send a human person to the Moon.
Again.
Allegedly.

Only an enemy of Western Civilization would downvote Ol’ Blue Eyes, asshole.
It’s theoretically possible that American blacks are genetically more predisposed to have a bad COVID outcome – but that’s almost certainly not the case, given the very low death rate in Africa. Or maybe I should the extremely low death rate in Africa. It’s very low in the US. The death rate is ridiculously low in Africa. The reason the US has more than its share of deaths from COVID is that the US has a lot of obese people. We have pretty much the highest percentage of the population that’s obese other than small South Pacific Island nations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_obesity_rate And black Americans have an even higher obesity percentage. So that’s that.
Chromosome 6 has a gene that makes it harder for CV-19 viruses to pass through cell walls. More Blacks and Hispanics lack that gene than Whites and Asians; analogous to the Smallpox non-resistance of Native Americans in the 1600s.
The COVID-19 death rate is ridiculously low in Africa because the African countries are not in on the hoax. The NWO is only perpetuating the hoax in primarily Western countries now. In fact China doesn’t even have the COVID-19 hoax anymore. The fact that African countries, with their lower standards of medicine, sanitation, etc have ridiculously low death rates for COVID-19 is just one of the many indications that it IS a hoax. The COVID-19 statistics (cases, deaths, etc) are just purely made-up numbers. Every single death attributed to COVID-19 is actually due to flu, pneumonia, heart attack, etc. Now, the NWO does have real biological weapons that they wouldn’t hesitate to release if they felt the need to, but COVID-19 is not one of them. It is purely made-up. It is amazing how so many otherwise-intelligent people can’t see that it is a hoax. It just goes to demonstrate the validity of the saying attributed to Hitler and Goebbels that “the bigger the lie, the easier it is to get people to believe it”.
Can confirm (as I have elsewhere) – things have been 100% back to normal in China for more than a month now (and yes, I’ve lived here for many years now; I live in one of the top 5 biggest cities here too, for reference).
People can shop, get together, go to work, and do whatever they want with no issues. Even during the initial stages of this hoax, people could leave their house, they just needed to wear a mask when they did it.
Now, hardly anyone wears masks. No one is getting arrested for it, accosted, looked down on, reprimanded in any way whatsoever, etc.
This hoax is easily the biggest of our time, egged on by the media and ‘elites’ that have nothing to lose and everything to gain from pushing it. Abolishing the middle class seems to be their main goal. A likely secondary goal has been testing and gauging the population’s response for when/if they DO actually release a deadly virus…
But you should also look at the inherent contradictions in your theory:
COVID-19 is not a man-made weapon of the NWO, but at the same time China started the hoax? So according to that logic China is a driving member of the NWO??
I can’t speak for him, but I read it as the NWO is simply blaming seasonal flu deaths (as well as most other deaths; even gunshot deaths from what I’ve heard) on ‘Covid-19’.
As in, Covid-19 never actually existed as a bioweapon per se, but was merely a fairytale spun up to attribute deaths to. I certainly don’t think he was blaming China, at any rate (unless there’s a second comment I missed).
White, you are correct. China by itself didn’t start the hoax, the NWO did. However many of the Chinese elite (CCP, etc) are part of the NWO, and they are the ones who orchestrated the hoax in China. I don’t know for sure, but I think the reason the NWO picked China as the origin was so that China could perfect and demonstrate their totalitarian lockdown measures to fight the “pandemic”. Those measures included sealing up people alive in their apartments. But now that the “pandemic” has spread to the West, so has all of the attention, and China has backed off. The NWO is using the “pandemic” in the West to implement tracking, control and monitoring procedures similar to the Social Credit System already used in China. In the West, the Australian state of Victoria (which includes Melbourne) appears to be the primary target right now, but the NWO fully intends to implement similar totalitarian methods throughout the rest of the West (and eventually the whole world).
Well, I’ll have to disagree on a few these points, as I actually live in China (and have for the better part of two decades), and the measures taken here have been anything but totalitarian; America, actually, has lead the way in treating the virus hoax with the utmost seriousness.
I hate to repeat it (as I’ve mentioned it elsewhere on this site about 5 times already; once, even, in my reply to your previous post) but it bears repeating in this case – the measures taken here were very lax compared to what I’ve heard of elsewhere; people were told to wear masks when the ‘virus’ first started, and recommended to stay home, unless they needed food. Note, I said recommended – there was never any requirement to stay home, and if people were caught skirting the rules, they were merely asked – again, asked – to make it quick/or to go home as soon as possible. A far cry from the police literally attacking people for being maskless, which has happened more than a few times outside of China.
The thing you mention of people being ‘sealed in’ only happened in Wuhan, to one living area, and was isolated to just that particular area due to its proximity to where the supposed virus originated; one thing you probably didn’t hear about that story, is that the government had officers on site to deliver the residents groceries and whatever else they needed, as opposed to just locking them in to suffer (which, yes, most westerners assumed was the case).
I’ll tell ya – I think you have the wrong idea of China’s role in this. I fully believe they are a target standing in the NWO’s way, as they do NOT go along with the agenda; for example, there’s no ‘racism’ in China, no support for LGBT nonsense, no using school as an indoctrination tool (I’m 100% sure of this, as I have kids in the school system here), no super sized sodas (which helps curb obesity, obviously), and a strict resistance against accepting GMO crops. Tack on to this, that the western media demonizes them, along with Russia, at every opportunity (which brings that famous Voltaire quote to mind…) – it’d be ludicrous to assume that they WOULDN’T plant the ‘virus’ here, as means to engender further ill will.
My assumption? Their ‘grassroot’ protests in Hong Kong were failing, so they sought alternative means of stirring up trouble – while simultaneously setting into motion the catastrophic economic crash that allowed them to crush the American middle class and sweep up their properties in one fell swoop. I certainly don’t see China benefitting from any of this – yes, things are getting better as of the last month or more, but things were lean here too. It’s not like this hoax has exactly helped tourism here…
Oh and that ‘Social Credit’ thing..? Complete horseshit, and totally made up. I don’t know where people keep pulling that shit from, but me, my wife, her family, and multiple friends I’ve asked about have absolutely no clue what the hell this supposed Social Credit System is; which leads me to believe it’s more crap made up by the media, that people have somehow believed as truth.
Good points. I wasn’t aware of much of that, especially about the Social Credit System not being real. I think you are probably mostly right except that I think there is a fairly significant number of elites in China who are part of the NWO. China isn’t as dominant as most of the Western nations, but from what I have been able to discern they still go along with much of the agenda. And assuming that the COVID-19 is entirely a hoax (as opposed to being real, but way overhyped, which many people believe), the fact that the hoax originated in China means that they have to be in on the hoax. However if the COVID-19 IS real (but way overhyped) then you could be right. Time will tell.
I won’t even pretend I know what’s going on in the upper echelons of the CCP. I will say though, that they do regularly go against nearly anything America and/or outside countries dictate if they think it’s not in China’s interests. (Though, if we’re being suspect, that could potentially be an act; I personally don’t think so, but I like to keep some optimism alive.)
If there were any hostile actors working to undermine the group from within, I’d posit that they are in either Hong Kong, Taiwan, or both; such people wouldn’t likely be found among the mainland’s ruling class, as they’d be eaten alive if they were ever found out. Chinese people are fiercely nationalistic, and will instantly unite and turn against an external threat instinctively. Especially a traitor.
It’s one reason that the CCP is so heavy-handed in keeping people under its sway – they fear the common folk, because there’s just so damn many of them. I know most westerners wouldn’t believe that, but I certainly do; many of the policies and actions I’ve seen taken by the CCP seem to border more on appeasing the masses rather than stringent control.
But you’re right – only time will tell for sure. I just know that I’ve enjoyed numerous freedoms here that I’d never receive as a White man in America; perhaps that colors my judgement on what China will or won’t do, yet I’m just relating how I think things will play out based on my experiences here.
(Addendum: The ‘virus’ was reported to have originated in Wuhan by the western media first. The lab there was at least partially owned by Gates, Faucci, as well as numerous other western billionaires. With Gates pushing vaccines as strongly as he does and Faucci there to be his echo parrot, it certainly stands to reason that either of these two – and potentially the other unnamed investors – would stand to gain more by pushing this hoax than China would… They already have a solid grip on their populace’s beliefs and/or overall actions… Unless I’m missing something – what significant gains would they see by becoming even more of an international pariah..?)
Apefricans use HCQ more, also
bingo,we have a winner–
hcq is for malaria & they just happen to have a bit of that in africa–many people take preventively,so it is widely used in africa–
Does anyone want to laugh… or cry?
Draining the swamp *was* officially a hoax;

All of this horseshit can be flushed down the memory hole now.
BREAKING!
The guilt he must be feeling for working to install the biggest Presidential fraud in American history must be immense.
Or he just emulated Trump and stole a bunch of money.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/sep/27/brad-parscale-arrested-after-threatening-suicide-a/
Yeah guys, it wouldn’t make sense for Trump to release the report before the election.
It would only lead to infighting in his voter base, over how much the TLAs (three-letter-agencies) are still a force which [somewhat] protects the American Constitution or not – and that would surely drive away quite a number of his voters on the losing side of that debate.
For him “the only way to win is not to play,” before the election.
I don’t think you’re wrong necessarily, but I DO question why he’d make a big show of pledging $500B for negroes with his ‘Platinum Plan’ – seems that something like that would rock the boat with much of his voting base…
Trump was gaslighting his own base long before the $500B thing.
Oh, I know – that’s just one of the more damnable he’s done as of late.
I have no idea what kind of campaign he is running, but I do know that he has done everything possible to alienate any White person with the power to reason and a memory longer than 7 days.
Looking back over the past three and half years the only victories I have seen have been those against the media, but the short term feeling of satisfaction of seeing them made fools of time and time again by being wrong about virtually everything is tempered by the fact that when I walk into a grocery store in my state- which has had fewer than 500 flu deaths in the last six months- 99% are all masked up.
Race relations are at an all time low in my lifetime and he rewards the Blacks in this country a half a trillion dollars as a reward for burning down our cities. I don’t understand the rationale. He gets to nominate 3 SCJ’s and one of them is a completely compromised liberal and the other was picked solely because of her sex. Not one single person participating in what appears to be a flat out coup is sitting in jail and our economy is in terminal decline while 75% of the middle class have no been dragged to the edge of poverty.
Call me crazy but if this is winning I don’t want to see what losing looks like.
Okay, so that’s why you have a choice. Vote Biden /Harris. Obviously you’re not going to do that. So let’s look at the positives. He is been steller on trade so far. There are 350 miles of impassible wall built, and about 10 more miles a week. He’s pulled us out of a lot of horrible treaties and international institutions. The space force was a brilliant move (Black Ops moved into sunlight). We are on our way out of the Middle East. He just expunged white bashing in any form from not only the federal government, but any corporation that wants to do business with the federal government. Not big on Gorsuck, but the Supreme Court is certainly headed in the right direction, as are the lower courts. He’s chased a lot of real swine out of Congress, Ryan, Flake, Corker, Nelson, to name a few. The FBI/DOJ is a mess, spending is insane, the monopolies have only grown bigger. He still got work to do, no question. But he is, and remains going forward the best option we have. At the present time, there’s no one else to do the job. And it’s a big terrible job. I think he’s doing pretty good. You’re making way too much of the mask thing. It’s bullshit, but it’s trivial. Goldman Sachs has a saying, don’t be the first one through the door, that’s the guy that catches the bullet in the face. A man of your talents can do a lot more damage if no one in the opposition knows just how much you hate them and their bullshit. I’m a peaceful guy, and I hope the division in the country can be healed peacefully. I doubt it, but I hope so. But if I ever decide that I’ve had enough, the price people directly responsible for destroying things I love will be extremely high. We’re exactly the same age. You know where I’m coming from. A little short read, maybe it’ll brighten your mood a little bit. https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1310242995585732608.html
Your forgot record-smashing Green Cards already signed and sealed for 2021.

You can jump off a cliff with Biden or walk down a ramp with Trump, but either way this sucker’s going down. The only answer I see is to get to a place where you can see your family through. We all know this, but I still hear about “traditional” Whites living in cities or suburbs of major cities. I don’t get it.
Failure to make indictments long before now has led to disgust among many in his base, not to mention the issues of Jared, Ivanka, and his Israel First policies. Infighting has and will continue to occur in any case.
The moral argument is that, regardless of possible effects, pro or con, as regards his re-election campaign, it is the President’s prime directive to defend the country against enemies foreign and domestic. Bringing traitors to justice is part of this duty. The people he hired are are derilict in this regard.
Just for the record, Zman, the Journal of the American Medical Association absolutely is NOT “the premier peer-reviewed medical journal in the United States”. That would be The New England Journal of Medicine.
The AMA’s journal “JAMA” is quite influential, and from time to time prints very significant articles, but it mostly functions as the house organ of ‘establishment’ medical practice, and an advertising medium for pharmaceutical companies.
FWIW I subscribed to both publications for years.
Never ruin a good story with the facts.
Great article Zman. I read many of your articles, which are thoughtful and excellent, but rarely comment. This one raises interesting questions about the very Zeitgeist of our western world. Yes, I do believe that evil exists and that we are in a battle for the good to prevail.
All religions have a packaged deal for those who do not wish to think about their situation. very few have time to contemplate their circumstances and develop their own beliefs and values – it is easier to adopt a ready-made one. This is why it is so difficult to engage the 99% in the this war to end all wars.
But now we know, because the power elite do not hide their intentions and, as masters of human behaviour, they know how to manipulate others without risk of push-back. There are very few organisations extant today that are on our side. So thank goodness for Admin and TBP – a force for good.
We know that the globalists are attempting to reset the world in their image as described every day on WEF and the war is hotting up. Our only option is to RESIST and one way to do this is described here:
So what do we do with the difficult-to-engage-99% ?
The Nietzschean approach ‘everybody has to become superman’ [so for starters take the time and succeed to contemplate their circumstances and develop their own beliefs and values]
seems to have failed.
IMHO Anon – there is no hope for the mob. Bread & Circuses keep them from even contemplating their navels:

first off, why are doctors somehow some kind of sacred priofession which can do no wrong? quite to the contrary, however honorable they might have been a century ago, for many decades now the whole profession has morphed imnto a humongous corrupt industry with some of the most blatant conflicts of interest out there – and the individual people working in that profession have become more and more mere technicians operating the fancy and complex knobs, levers, and wheels on the machinery of that industry. nowhere in there is any kind of moral superiority implied or earned, or warranted.
I’m still waiting on Ritz and Cracker barrel to respond to my request for a name change. In the South especially that Cracker is slang for a white person . No more Cracker Barrel…it should be Biscuit Barrel . Ritz should be Ritz Round Golden Disc’s .
Saltines…don’t get me started .
I do like the fact that Cracker is the N-word for black folks .
