On friendship with self-righteous cowards

Guest Post by Alex Berenson

Three years in, the bell has rung. No, I don’t expect Covidians and vaccine fanatics to apologize. But the ones so deluded as to think THEY still should be judging US – I’m done with them. Forever

We all lost friends. Most of us lost relatives too.

Not to Covid, of course. With some sad exceptions, almost no one lost anyone who wasn’t already over 75 or extremely overweight or ill to Covid.

We lost friends to the government and media-fed lockdown panic, and then to the rancor over the mRNAs.

They told us that we were selfish and stupid. That we didn’t understand science. Or vaccines. That we were risking our lives and theirs out of pure spite, or maybe fear of needles. That the government was right to make us choose between our jobs and an experimental biotechnology. That we shouldn’t be allowed in movie theaters or stores or restaurants or planes.

Then they stopped talking to us at all. They disinvited us from family gatherings and parties. They said our children couldn’t play with theirs. They looked away when they saw us on the street.

You may have reached out to some of them. I did. Not to convince them, that was impossible, but simply to say, Hey, I’m still the same person, I don’t want to fight about this, we don’t have to talk about it.

Except they wanted to talk about it. To vent. To let us know how immoral and wrong we were.

“Everyone in medicine thinks you’re a fool,” a person I considered a friend said to me, after he found out that I had suggested children should not get the jabs.

About that.

(“Revise” is doing a lot of work there:)

He said some other things, too.

By the way, did I mention I was a guest at his house when he told me off? I would have walked out, but we were with our kids, and I didn’t want to embarrass them.

I probably should have walked out.

The anger at us peaked in the second half of 2021.

Some people were still scared of Covid in the second half of 2021. And a lot of people still thought the mRNAs worked. Why? I don’t know. It was obvious they had failed – not just to me, but to the vaccine companies and the government, which were pushing more and more shots, twisting the word “vaccine” beyond recognition.

But it’s not the second half of 2021 anymore.

It’s May 2023. In the two years since we mRNA skeptics faced frantic abuse, the mRNA countries have had multiple Covid waves despite near complete vaccination of adults over 65. Countries like Canada and South Korea and Australia – where 99 percent of people over 70 were vaccinated by the beginning of 2022 – had more Covid deaths in 2022 than ever before.

(If this is vaccine success, I’d hate to see failure:)

SOURCE

The bigger philosophical issue is that trying to destroy people and undo basic civil liberties protections over a respiratory virus was a titanic mistake – and would have been even if Covid had been significantly more dangerous than it was.

But let’s put that fact aside and just focus on nuts and bolts three years in.

At this point – how do I put this politely? – we can all agree that maybe the mRNAs were not the panacea that we were told.

And that maybe the hysteria around Covid was a little overdone.

But here’s the part that stuns me, the truly jaw-dropping aspect of where we are now: A lot of those people who got on their high horses two or three years ago, they won’t get off.

Forget apologizing and asking for our forgiveness. They’re still shunning us. They cannot possibly still believe they were right, so they must just be too afraid to admit the truth.

Which makes sense.

They were cowards from the beginning, hiding in their apartments and houses, behind their masks and face shields, following useless rules and rituals.

And when the miracle shot arrived, they were desperate for it to save them.

(VOGUE, Dec. 5, 2020: Self-described hypocondriac and Covid hysteric Molly Jong-Fast waits for a tiny little prick.)

So. They were cowards.

Cowardice is forgivable.

And they were wrong.

Being wrong is forgivable.

But at this point their inability to admit the truth – if not to us, to themselves – that’s not forgivable.

Where I stand, as of May 1, 2023.

I no longer expect apologies from anyone. If my friends want to pretend the last three years didn’t happen, I am okay pretending. I will never really trust them again, unless they admit the truth or at least show some understanding of how wrong they were. But when you have long histories with people, and you know their flaws, and they know yours, you have to make allowances, just as they do for you.

What I am NOT willing to do any longer is suffer their disapproval.

I have quietly extended olive branches over the last few months to a number of folks. But what I’ve realized recently is my willingness to turn the other cheek has a sell-by date, and it is here. Three years in, anyone who still presumes to judge those of us who were proven right has shown himself to be not just a coward but a fool.

As my dad used to say, forever is a mighty long time. And I don’t have enough friends to lose them lightly.

But I am done with these people.

You will never find any truth going to churches. Churches are social organization. Truth is found by personal study and examination, and the tools we use are prayer, meditation, and contemplation. This is what Jesus meant when he said the Kingdom of heaven is within you. On a positive, you can meet and make some good friends, and they may help with the spiritual journey.

Yes and no. Religions are man devised rituals, highly prone to greed and avarice. People go to church either out of a sense of moral duty, habit or genuine desire. I suffered Catholicism as a kid, (never buggered !) as an adult I never felt the need to practice rituals and never inflicted them upon my children.

People go to church for the very same reason they go to bars, fellowship. Much cheaper to drink at home, but I occasionally enjoy fellowship with bunch of other grouchy old men, like myself. What ever works for you.

Ecclesia means called out of the world and its values. True Christians are in the world but not part of the world. Unfortunately in many churches God’s Holy Spirit Inspired Gospel is supplanted by liturgical recipe. It’s a sad case of everyone at their post but no Ghost.

Unfortunately, you’ll not likely find truth in churches. You will find it in the Bible. Read Romans 1-8, over and over again.

It’s Gods righteousness you seek and He is more than willing to give it to you.

Anything given to people in sermons should be investigated thoroughly in scripture like the Bereans did during Paul’s time. I don’t subscribe to free will but I do subscribe to solid Bible only sermons and worship the reason I sit in a pew. Mother’s Day, Father’s day, George Washington’s birthday , Valentine’s Day, Veteran’s Day, all those “days”, never mentioned as they are days devised by man. They are nice thoughts and recognitions but nothing to do with scripture on the day one worships the Lord. People want so much to take away from God. All glory goes to God.

Moving on, thoughts on people that say God talked to them? It certainly as happened as was the case on the road to Damascus. God spoke to Moses and others and of course Moses delivered God’s messages to the Israelites who failed miserably in what they were instructed. I’ll drop for now.

God certainly spoke with the prophets and the apostles. People that tell me God spoke to them; they weren’t speaking to God. Paul warned about angels speaking gospels to us in Galatians chapter one. Many religions have begun as a result. God speaks through His word, period. No extra-curricular information is reliable. If God is still speaking to man, the Bible is incomplete. Sola scriptura for me, Tex.

Question: what’s the most important “day” on the satanic calendar? Your birthday. With satan it’s all about us. With God, it’s all about Him, amen!

And I’m warning you about self-proclaimed “apostles” claiming to have an exclusive understanding of Jesus’ teaching.

In Galatians 1 Paul even has the audacity to claim he knows more about it than the angels. What a cheek.

How can you put the self serving claims of Paul before the direct statements of Jesus?

It’s interesting what took place on the day Saul and those traveling with him were on the road to Damascus. Saul was a changed man before the scales fell off and then became a messenger of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I won’t argue his “ego” perhaps. Paul knew what he was and acknowledged, a sinner, a born again Christian, regenerated yet none the less still prone to sin, a mortal. Ego? Don’t know.

Appreciate the simplicity.

God speaks through His word

Birthdays, praise the Lord we are born , right? We love people in our families etc. and celebrate their birthdays only put those days in proper perspective. I give my wife a birthday card and some dark chocolate and perhaps we go somewhere to eat out. Mostly she enjoys the fact I remembered, it’s not that difficult and then again what we rejoice in is our creator , God, and the saving grace of Jesus shed blood. .

The country celebrates 4th of July etc. and that is a good thing in “we” are able to talk freely etc. although it’s still no where the pinnacle God deserves in our thoughts, prayers and conversations.

Book of Romans Explained

Select The Chapter you want

“Before we begin in the book of Romans we need to look at the penman, Paul. Paul was also known as Saul. Saul means asked and this was the name he was using when he was persecuting the Christians. The name Paul means little. His Jewish name was Saul and his Roman name was Paul. I personally believe that Saul stopped using that name when he was saved by Jesus Christ, and used the name Paul from then on. He was a native of Tarsus, a city of Cilicia. Paul was Jewish (in fact a Pharisee). He was from the tribe of Benjamin.

Philippians 3:5 “Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, [of] the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;”

Paul was also a Roman citizen. His father was a Roman.

Paul was such a controversial figure that I feel our time will be well spent considering his background. Paul was an educated man. He had studied in Jerusalem in a Jewish school under Gamaliel. We will see in Paul’s teachings some leftovers from that early learning of the law. Remember Paul was a Roman citizen, from Tarsus, a Pharisee of the Hebrews. This may explain what he says in Corinthians.

1 Corinthians 9:19-22 “For though I be free from all [men], yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.” “And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;” “To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.” “To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all [men], that I might by all means save some.”

This should make it easier for all of us to understand the seemingly discrepancies in Paul’s writings. He does not say the same thing all the time, because he is speaking to people who have different customs. Paul tries to reach them at their level of understanding at the time. He establishes a church in Philippi with 2 women in high position and then writes the Corinthian church for women to be silent in church. In this same 1 Corinthians, we read that women should have their head covered when they prophesy in the church.

1 Corinthians 11:5 “But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her] head uncovered dishonored her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.”

1 Corinthians 11:15 “But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.”

Paul fights for the new Christian doctrine of not having to keep the old Mosaic law and then observes it himself. The reason for this is not that he is doubleminded, but that as I said, he is keeping the customs of each person he ministers to. Paul was not a hater of women as many thought, for he travelled with women ministers who worked with him. When God sent him to Macedonia, he ministered to the women on the Sabbath and Lydia and her family were saved. He moved into Lydia’s house and established a church there.

Acts 16:12-15 “And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, [and] a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days.” “And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted [thither].” “And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard [us]: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul.” “And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought [us], saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide [there]. And she constrained us.”

It appears from this that Lydia was a leader of this church in her home.

Paul never married, but it was not because he hated women but because he was so busy working for God. All of chapter 7 of first Corinthians is about this very thing.

Many of the people of our day have deified Paul and that is very dangerous. It appears to me that this is very like what the Jews did about John the Baptist. John the Baptist was more acceptable to the Jews than Jesus was. If we Christians are not careful we will forget also that Jesus Christ the Son of God is the focal point of the entire Bible, John the Baptist was a messenger (a truly great servant of God), but Jesus was the Message. The messenger is not more important than the Message. Paul was a servant of Jesus as we read in his own words in Romans 1.

Romans 1:1 “Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called [to be] an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,”

The One served is greater than the servant. Paul is not at fault in this, we Christians are. We must worship God alone. Paul’s writings are important (some of my favorites). We certainly do not want to down play them at all. Tremendous teachings of the basic Christian walk are taught in the books he penned. Gentiles owe much of their church beginnings to him and Peter.

Paul was a tentmaker by trade and even worked as a tentmaker while he ministered. He tried to make his own way so that he was not subject to any particular church.

Philippians 4:12 “I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.”

Paul was satisfied with whatever he had. He did not complain.

Paul was a very special man. He went into the desert for 3 years after his encounter with Jesus and was taught of the Holy Spirit of God.

Galatians 1:16-18 “To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:” “Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.” “Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.”

Paul was also carried away into heaven at one point.

2 Corinthians 12:1-5 “It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.” “I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such a one caught up to the third heaven.” “And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)” “How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.” “Of such a one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.”

Paul had been an arrogant man before he met Jesus, but he became humble to the point of calling himself chief among sinners.

1 Timothy 1:15 “This [is] a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.”

Jesus had called Paul to a life of suffering.

Acts 9:15-16 “But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:” “For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.”

We see that Paul himself lists some of these sufferings in 2 Corinthians.

2 Corinthians 11:23-28 “Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I [am] more; in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.” “Of the Jews five times received I forty [stripes] save one.” “Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;” “[In] journeyings often, [in] perils of waters, [in] perils of robbers, [in] perils by [mine own] countrymen, [in] perils by the heathen, [in] perils in the city, [in] perils in the wilderness, [in] perils in the sea, [in] perils among false brethren;” “In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.” “Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.”

We also see in this verse above that his greatest suffering was for the churches he started. Some of these churches were the church at Corinth, the church at Ephesus, and the church at Philippi.

Paul helped establish the doctrine for the Christians when he fought so hard the Jews and even went to Jerusalem to get the last word from Peter stating that believers in Christ were not to circumcise males and were not to keep the Mosaic law. Chapter 15 of Acts tells of all they were to do in the way of a doctrine.

Acts 15:20 “But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and [from] blood.”

Paul’s part in the founding of Christianity must be admired. He went on 3 missionary journeys establishing churches. He spent more time at Ephesus than any other of these places. On one visit, he stayed two and one half years there. Much of his writing was done from Rome where he was under house arrest for a lengthy time.

Paul was a full apostle of Christ. Apostle means (one sent with a special message). Paul certainly fell into that category. He not only preached, but healed the sick as well. Paul covered a great deal of the known world at that time also.

He fulfilled the commission that Jesus gave in Mark.

Mark 16:15 “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

Paul carried a company with him everywhere he went to preach.

Philippians 4:3 “And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and [with] other my fellow laborers, whose names [are] in the book of life.”

We see also at Antioch, Paul and Barnabas were ordained for their missionary work together. This can be found (in Acts in chapter 13 and 14). John Mark ministered for a short time with Paul and Barnabas. Luke (who wrote the books of Acts), went with Paul on these missionary journeys and even went to Rome with him. Many times in Acts, Luke (the beloved physician), when he speaks of Pauls journeys, says “we”.

Perhaps Paul was closer to Timothy than any of these others. He loved Timothy so much that he speaks of him as a son.

2 Timothy 1:2 “To Timothy, [my] dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.”

This was not Pauls son in the flesh, but in the spirit. Paul took Timothy as a youth and trained him for a minister of Jesus Christ. We would go on and on, like Dorcas, who many believe helped Paul financially. He was popular among the followers of Jesus.

Paul was sorry that he had consented to the stoning of Stephen. He and Peter had a few differences which were settled quickly. Paul worked diligently for the Lord Jesus Christ and His church after he received the Lord. At the end Paul was able to say in 2 Timothy.

2 Timothy 4:7 “I have fought a good fight, I have finished [my] course, I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at
that day.”

We will finish the last of verse 8 out in saying O that I might be like Paul and receive this crown of righteousness.

2 Timothy 4:8 “Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.”

Gentiles and Jews alike owe all of their church beginnings to Paul. FIFY.

Peter is a Hebrew.

He fulfilled the commission that Jesus gave in Mark.

No, he didn’t. He fulfills a completely different heavenly commission, given by the glorified Christ.

2 Corinthians 5:17-21 KJB… “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”

In other words…Shit happens. Shit’s gonna KEEP on happenin’. Don’t worry about shit UNTIL it happens because there’s always the possibility that it WON’T happen.

Now you KNOW what God meant when he said that Man’s heart was desperately wicked and who among us could know it?

Welcome to Base Betrayal 101, folks. THIS is how it feels EVERY TIME. Take it to the LORD in prayer. Give HIM the opportunity to heal that which you can not. That’s the only way you have any chance at all to claw back what was taken from you. And know this going in…God answers ALL prayers. Sometimes the answer is “NO”. Steel yourself for that possible outcome.

“don’t worry about shit you can’t control. It’s what I live by.”

That’s the convenient excuse I have heard from so many of my friends and relatives who did ZERO to fight the coming totalitarianism. Many take that position because it’s the easy way out. Because so few did not fight (other than complaining on the Internet), kept their Amazon, Facebook and Big Bank accounts, sent no money to help orgs and people like True the Vote and Dinish D’Souza, become poll watchers, goto DC on J6, share vetted information with the brainwashed, we are now sunk. Mind you, I am not putting you MC in that camp. But that does fit most of the Platformers. The concept is also incredibly stupid. You cannot control a damn thing that happens in our existence we call life. You can only react to and influence events, and others, like our kids. But this comes with a huge price that most won’t take. You risk relationships and maybe even freedom. But we can thank others who looked at things from a different perspective. They did things like write books like Common Sense and One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich. If it weren’t for people that did worry and took action in situations that they knew they could not personally control, which of course is impossible, some of us wouldn’t be here to complain.

My former primary care physician was one of those that couldn’t wait to get the ‘jab’ now he’s had covid at least two times after receiving multiple ones but can’t wait until can he receive another ‘jab’. These people are obviously mental midgets and have lost all critical thinking skills.

This was undoubtedly the greatest psy-ops operation the world had ever seen and it was successful beyond their wildest dreams. It turned mayors, governors, commissioners, administrators, etc into tinpan dictators overnight, making Hiter and Stalin looking amateurish, all trying to outdo themselves.

It must have been a running contest as to who could implement the strictest covid protocols, leaving a wake of destruction unprecedented during peacetime.

Hundreds of thousands of businesses were destroyed, millions lost their jobs, yet the idiots overseeing all this destruction are patting themselves on the back for a job ‘well done’. In many places, these protocols are still being implemented.

I’m still seeing plenty of Covidians donning facemasks and this is in a ‘red’ state, ‘red’ county and ‘red’ city. These individuals are obviously beyond hope as is this country.

I’ve felt the same way about the entire progressive death cult for years already. How to engage with friends and family who support the destruction of your way of life, heritage, history, culture. Live and let live? LOL

Covid was different because it seduced normies and conservative grillers alongside the already mentally deranged leftists just the same. While levels of enthusiasm differed, there was a defining universalism to the mindf*ckery involved.

In fact, it was this coalescing of the supposed partisan elements of the remnant society around the bevy of lies that was most disturbing to me.

A foreshadow that remains ever-present as I plan for a future for my family.

While it reflected the complete convergence of all ‘trusted’ institutions, the media complex, and every tinpot bureaucrat down the line, I suppose my own bias blinded me to just how monolithic the public has become under the spell of post-modernism.

I expected more people on what I consider my side of the great divide to ‘notice’ and apply similar heuristics to covid as they might to the pedestrian leftist hivemind that has been swelling exponentially post-Barry’s first world apology tour.

In the before times, back when pink pussy hats and regular old man-hate, anti-white revisionist history, the complete perversion of womein into hookup culture, open-borders replacement liturgies, rainbow mafia pederast parades, lesbian scooter gangs taking over brewpubs, and globalist tropes about one-world utopias kicked into overdrive with uncurable TDS, guys like Berensen were more than happy to squid-ink at the NYT about the righteousness of these pursuits. But then their spaceship left without them.

There is genuine virtue that is real and virtue signaling which is fake. There is science and there is Scientism. There is objective truth and there is emotionalism; reason or feelings; knowledge or deception; truth-tellers or wizards. Some people choose what to believe while others choose who to believe. Then they act on what they believe in faith – many with courage and some acting out of self-concern and cowardice.

But the problem is this: You can’t reason with those who have chosen by means of their emotions.

Fear truly is a mind-killer because it blinds… and, especially, when paired to arrogance.

As for it not being a depopulation event, even it the jab doesn’t cause a mass die off, which very well may occur if indeed we start to see a ramp up of the cancers and immune system collapse of the injectees, but if the injections simply reduce the birth rates below the replacement number then yes, it’s a depopulation event. Many western and other developed countries are already below the replacement levels and many others are close.

As a skeptic of anything government, I enjoyed dishing it out to all my acquaintances who had jumped on the wagon. I had a mild case of the Wuflu and was berated for not taking the jab. I watched the boob tube from my easy chair for two weeks and relaxed. When these jabbed acquaintances started coming down with serious cases, I thought of rubbing it in, but didn’t. I still don’t think they have a grasp of what the globalist are up to, when the wolf is at their doors I imagine they will still be clueless.

I was told that if I didn’t wear a compliance muzzle, I was going to die. I was told that if I didn’t hide in my house and stay six feet away from people, I would wind up in the hospital on a ventilator. Then they said that if I didn’t take the “vaccine” over and over again that I would die. The fact that I’m still alive after not participating in any of their nonsense really drives them nuts, and makes them dislike me even more.

People are flawed. Everyone is at a different stage of devlopment, maturation, with a widely differing cognitive capacity. The influences of media, social signalling, economic factors, etc. play into their decision making every bit as much if not more than their own sense and experience.

This past weekend I was back in Princeton to visit family and couldn’t help but notice that close to a third of the people walking around in the Springtime air were still masked up. For them it isn’t about health, but rather as a means of identity. It was reminiscent of religious penitents during the Dark Ages demonstrating their piety.

People are flawed. Everyone is at a different stage of devlopment, maturation, with a widely differing cognitive capacity. 

Reminded me of a mental exercise:

MAPPING ONE’S THREAD OF LIFE

Imagine,

We are each given one spool of thread that represents our potential life span.

Now, picture in your mind a map of the earth.

Take a thumbtack and place it on the map at the location of your birth. 

Take the thread from the start of the spool and tie it to the tack on the map.

Continue by placing a tack at every single place on earth you (remember to have visited up to now) and wrap the thread around each tack in sequence.

The last tack should be where you are, and the remaining thread is the entire potential remainder of one’s journey on this pass through of life.

_________

Variations:

One can assign various values to the thread and locations.

Examples:
For places and times where you have fond warm memories, you can assign a value of warm pleasing light to your thread and the place.
Or for scary or bad memories one can assign a “scary” value light.

One can zero in on what was going on peripherally at any time.

Who were your friends?
[At age 5, 10, 15, 20, etc]
Where did you live?
What was your diet at the time?
Your habits?
What periods were you happiest?
Which times were the worst?
What was your health like?

As one practices this memory technique, it can become a sort of time machine.

One can go back to previous incarnations of self and converse….with one’s other aged versions.
What does 5 year old you think of what 50 year old you is up to?
What do you now think of your own decisions at ages 15? 20? 30?
What do you think your 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 year old selves would say about your decisions in the intervening years?
________

It should become obvious after running through these imaging concepts, that no two paths are the same.

There are many that share common points, but no two are the same.

Even within the same family: The first child experiences something quite different than the fourth child.

Some who use this technique, will meet themselves for the first time since childhood.

To be fair there were lots of Asians who seem to have an affinity for masks built in and Princeton has got to be at least one third Asian at this point.

The feminine affectation among the male population there was disturbing. Excluding the Central American contingent (which was sizeable, maybe 25% of the population) most of the men were either openly gay or trying to appear that way, especially in manner of dress, speech pattern, etc. I was fairly stunned by how ubiquitous it has become to appear soft and non-threatening. I felt like Paul Bunyan and I am not a big guy, but the way people stepped out of my path or dropped their gaze when I passed by them was shocking. I saw very few children, certainly nowhere near enough to replace the older generations. The vast majority of White people- who were clearly in the minority- were older, mostly Boomer generation. Rainbow flags outnumbered American flags 2:1.

And the presence of heavily armed police everywhere, every one in a brand new fully outfitted prowler patrol car. I saw more cops in a single day than I saw in the entirety of 1977. The population is roughly 20K with an annual PD budget of 75 million.

Every transaction at every business was fraught with difficulty; couldn’t make change, wouldn’t accept cash, clumps of employees deliberately avoiding customers, turning their backs on people waiting at the register to stare into a phone, language barriers, etc.

I drove past the place where my cousin hung himself from the tree out on the front lawn this past February and was overwhelmed with grief. I’m not saying it was a direct result of the past three years, but it certainly played a part in it, the isolation he felt after his father passed away two years ago and we never got the chance to even have a proper funeral because of the NJ “mandates”. What has been done is far beyond criminal, it’s a cultural horror show played out in real time and aftershocks will go on for generations.

I don’t see how this can go on. It’s a strange kind of heartbreak to see it and know there isn’t a single thing that you can do but stay away.

The siren thing is a “case by case” depending on the nature of the call.

For instance, when my Mom falls but isn’t in need of the ER, 911 notifies the responders that it isn’t “that kind” of emergency. They can take a little more time getting there and don’t NEED the ambulance.

Who wants all their neighbors woken up just because momma forgot to use her walker …again?

Giant cell arteritis is thought to be an autoimmune disorder, where the body’s defense system used against invading organisms is used instead to attack normal healthy tissues. These immune cells come together at the site where they are attacking the body and form giant cells.
What triggers giant cell arteritis?
The cause of the condition is unknown. It is believed to be due in part to a faulty immune response. The disorder has been linked to some infections and to certain genes. Giant cell arteritis is more common in people with another inflammatory disorder known as polymyalgia rheumatica.

What the Covidiots did (and are still doing) goes WAY beyond cowardice and enters the realm of evil. Pertinent data and information on at least some of the dangers from the non-vaccine was available almost from the start of the whole plandemic. Those who ignored the truth and attacked those of us who questioned and refused the toxic jab were either willingly complicit or willfully ignorant. That many continue to push this poison in the wake of mountains of overwhelming data regarding the morbidity/mortality from the mRNA cocktail, is astounding and infuriating. These individuals are easily identified by wearing a face diaper while driving alone in their vehicles or walking outside. No amount of spin or false contrition on their part will warrant forgiveness for their participation in the attempted global genocide. Resistance is not futile.

Sadly, my own family seems to be broken beyond repair. My children, my wife, and I were shunned by their grandparents, my mother & stepfather…for two years left out of family gatherings. A few months ago my mother used her go-to method of ignoring the elephant in the room to ask if something was wrong WITH ME.

I unloaded giving her example after example how me & mine had been slighted and disrespected since WuFlu began. Summing up at the end the only thing that could possibly tie those events together was we refused to get ClotShot.

Her response was that we just had a misunderstanding of events. How being uninvited to a picnic with extended family specifically because we didn’t participate in the hysteria could be a misunderstanding is something I cannot grasp as a misunderstanding. Regardless, my house has tried to mend fences.

It hasn’t worked and we have moved on. She still slips and says things that make it clear she believes I am unbalanced because I don’t trust government narratives. Only God can heal the relationship at this point and I don’t believe she knows Him.

Denninger regularly manages to make good arguments, but right after shoots himself in the foot with an RPG.
This is another one of those cases:

When Omicron showed up in the wild […] it led to the obvious question: Did China intentionally light a backfire with an earlier, much-less-pathogenic version they happened to have laying around […]?
Probably.

A reasonable hypothesis for Omicron, which I also happen to find the most likely one – except there is no effing proof China did it. That piece is just pure conjecture bullshit on KD’s part.
But it gets much better:

In addition this also points to deliberate malfeasance at the cost of hundreds of thousands of dead bodies in not intentionally inoculating the population here with Omicron before it got here naturally

WHAT THE FUCK.
Denninger seriously states US authorities should have deliberately spread Omicron, before it naturally got to the US??
What is the time difference we’re talking about here, a 3 months window?
And who would have had enough data, less than 3 months after Omicron appeared for the first time, to declare Omicron close to harmless also in the medium term, and therefore it would be a good idea to spread it so to innoculate the population against more dangerous variants?
A: Nobody!

But Denninger proposes a medical procedure that is on the same insanity level as distributing basically untested mRNA “vaccines.”

He certainly can be a jackass. But he’s been right about a lot of CONvid related stuff.

As did 2 other cruise ships docked in California for a month around the same time.
Those cruise ships proved this was not a “novel virus” or everyone aboard would have sickened and a lot more would have died than did. No one in the media ever followed up on them.

b) and if/why he believes a single ‘laboratory’ [=the ship] is good enough to make world-wide fatality rate projections based on it, and not to the contrary is a haphazard way of deciding/acting upon.
A strong hint, yes. But a single foundation strong enough to make do-or-die decisions on… no.

Ideology stands justified. If it comes from government it is not to be trusted. Unfortunately the ideology must expand now. If it comes from the corporate medical cartel(s) it is not to be trusted. This is very unfortunate as we all occasionally need medical intervention. Media and the academy of course have been in the untrustworthy category for years, government as well, yet there is something very sad about having these groups confirm unambiguously their enmity to truth, justice and the American way.

There is an agenda and it is progressing. We don’t know the goal of that agenda, but we certainly now know the agenda is the agenda of our enemy.

>>>Media and the academy… ,government as well… there is something very sad about having these groups confirm unambiguously their enmity to truth, justice and the American way.

It’s not just enmity to ‘the American Way’. Personally, I’d say the enmity was against Christianity… but I suspect that the enmity is even more broadly-directed than that: enmity toward any person or belief system that does not hold obedience to the State as its highest virtue.

The State (ideally as large and as centralized a State as can be constructed) is God for some; for the State-Worship acolytes, it’s the next best thing to full Luciferian, all-is-permitted, worship of the Self.

While I do have empathy for my friends and family who drank the COVID Kool-Aid and I still love them I am leery of them. They thought I was crazy for not taking the jab even when I explained to them why, that these shots had not been thoroughly tested and were not safe. They are the ones who stopped speaking and associating with me and I adjusted to it. My friends who had adverse reactions said, “well if it weren’t for the shot I’d be worse off.” Whew their cognitive brownout was mind blowing.
What turned the tide for some family members happened in 2022 when a group of them went to Florida to Disney World all of them were jabbed and boosted and all but two got “COVID”! That sort of broke the ice for them but for a whole group of others they just won’t let go. The irony is they’ve all had adverse reactions some mild, some devastating and a few got “COVID” (the flu). There is still some tension remaining but that’s on them. I’ve always thought for myself and did what I thought was right, they a lot are go-alongs who follow the trends, fads and believe the government and media on just about everything.
The sad part is a lot of them are getting sick or their old ailments are coming back which is not good since we are in our mid 70’s.
I know the plutocrats will never be held accountable for their crimes against humanity if that were the case Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Henry Kissinger, Barack Obama, Fauci, Bill Gates, and Donald Trump et. al. would be in jail or dead by execution. I wish more regular people would at least be willing to entertain the fact there are truly stupid, cowardly, evil and wicked people out there whose lust for power, money and fame are what motivate them, rather than doing the greater good.

My “insurance” company wanted to give me a “free to me” in home health exam. After 20 to 30 minutes on the phone I was told the physician or physicians assistant would be at my house and would be wearing a mask and they might request I wear one too. I cancelled the appointment – received 2 call backs trying to reschedule, no thanks. I too have friends & relatives that took the jab and boosters and still do not admit there is any problem and shake their heads in feigned pity when anyone gets diagnosed with covid because they are not jabbed. It doesn’t end with the scandemic, they moan and groan about some of the woke culture but attribute none of it to the policies of those they voted for and continue to vote for.

We are on the government “health plan”, the one we pay extra for the “advantage”. “They” constantly send text messages, leave VM and send e-mails asking if “someone” can come in my home for a “health evaluation”. You got to be kidding. “They” know my “health” because I visit a doctor that takes the plan so why would I think anything “they” want to know is not already disclosed in the doctors records for me.

Shortly results showed for many people, my worst fears and even much worse happened, and whistle blowers have exposed it was Genocide not just stupidity.

What an excellent thread and outstanding comments all around, read every single one…this is one of the reasons I hang here…so many defiant, tough, smart people who refuse to be herded!!!

Being an outspoken Conspiracy Affirmer for many decades my family/friend circle were bombarded by me with desperate warnings about the jabs…and the true science (slave/serf control tool) of the masks…I refused to wear and viciously mocked. I did it face to face – article after article – meme after meme – vid after vid…all were sent from carefully selected sources…many from TBP to all of them.

I know I stopped some from caving in to the pressure and riding the needle(s) because later they told me. Then I sent detailed DETOX information to all…and I know some of them took it because later they told me…I also mailed extensive DETOX to some who I knew caved in and were jabbed.

I also sent everyone the information where to buy Ivermectin/HCQ from a reliable source…and just gave it to 12 people…two have said it saved their lives.

Now I’m the guy who had been warning them about the Banksters for 20 years, explaining to them who the Creature from Jekyll Island is, how Fractional Reserve Lending works, and the lie that fiat is, explaining Chemtrails, links every September on the truth about 911, listing all the historical False Flags, sending some copies of The Killing of Uncle Sam and other similar books, sending them: http://www.theburningplatform.com and telling them to scan all the threads for a couple of weeks for anti-big media free speech.

One close friend refused to believe Israel sunk an America ship intentionally slaughtering Americans…and when I got done he knew the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God, etc. etc. etc.

I built a house during the height of the COVID CON in 2020 with a carefully selected likeminded builder, and made sure no workers ever wore a mask…I didn’t want to see that bull shit on my property (I lived in another house two pastures away). I introduced myself to every single worker and shook all their hands, while looking them in the eye. Everyone shook my hand.

My wife’s uncle and aunt (my age) were scheduled for a visit in 2021 (my FIL lives with us my wife’s uncle is his younger brother) and he implied on speaker phone they were considering not coming unless we got jabbed…I immediately yelled: “We will get jabbed WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER”…no visit. Now her aunt is facing her third sudden open heart surgery…it came on mysteriously…hmmm…the third surgery is happening because they left a wire in her chest after the second.

From personal experience, never “forgive” anyone who has wronged you unless they first apologize and admit they were wrong. (Hint: They won’t)

If you “forgive” them without these two conditions, then you are just being a doormat and giving them permission to do the same thing all over again.

Berenson should look in the mirror for “self-righteous cowards” who 1) swallow evil lies because the popular establishment cult told them to, and 2) who double down on worshiping the lie to be good little cult groupies even when they are proven wrong over and over again, and 3) vilify and smear those who courageously refuse to swallow the evil group cult lies.
Because for over a decade Berenson, as a NYT left-agenda flack and now as a ‘freelance’ CIA narrative propagandist has been the ultimate moral coward sucking up to Nazis in Ukraine and cheering on WW III for his pals at Langley.

For Baghdad Bob Berenson, sucking CIA lie Kool-Aid and joining his WW III death cult is REQUIRED, and anyone who won’t obey the Langley cult leaders is a traitor and an evil Putin-stooge “boot-licker.”.
For over a decade Berenson has lied to himself about the true nature of the Azov-Bandera Nazi regime in Kiev and its CIA master. And he has lied about Russian attempts for a decade to get the US-EU and UKR Nazis to stop killing ethnic russians in UKR and abide by the Minsk accords.
And he has vilified anyone who does not worship his own lies as much as he does:
-So, anybody who did not worship the Soros-CIA coup in 2014 to enthrone Berenson’s beloved UKR Nazis as an act of justice, democracy and humanitarianism was an “unpatriotic” Putin-loving “boot-licker” and a scourge against humanity.
-Anybody who noticed that his CIA-backed Nazis were mass-murdering UKR citizens who spoke Russian ever since 2014 was also an evil Russian “boot-licker”.
-Anyone who understood that implementation of Berenson’s wet dream of US sanctions vs Russia and theft of all their foreign currency holdings abroad was guaranteed to backfire and actually strengthen the ruble and hasten the de-dollarization of the world while simply re-routing Russian oil and gas shipments to India then to Europe at double the cost and that a negotiated stop to this insanity is needed to save the EU and UKR from the kamakzees running their own people into hell is just “right-wing in-group signalling”
-Anyone who noticed that Putin did not launch a full-scale invasion of UKR but instead opted for an SMO, limited to liberation of UKR citizens in the Donbass to protect them from Berenson’s favored Nazis is an evil Putin-stooge “boot-licker”. Putin refused to do the standard knock-out of command, control communications, infrastructure and intel of Kiev and western UKR that ANY real invasion would do from the very start (as we did in Iraq). And he tried to negotiate a cease-fire only to be rebuffed by the globalist WW III-mongers like Nuland. But according to Berenson all of Putin’s obvious military restraint never happened.
-Anyone who does not swallow absurd Baghdad-Bob style lies spewed by the CIA Narrative Media that the UKR Nazis are “winning big” are evil Putin-stooge “boot-lickers.
And now that the entire first and second wave of UKR army recruits has been mulched in the Bakmut meat-grinder and the Nazis are now reduced to forcing kids and geriatrics to the front line at gunpoint in a final third wave to serve Berenson’s beloved Nazi regime’s Spring Offensive (and now that even US Nato commander Cavoli admits that it is the UKR and NATO that is out of ammo and key logistics NOT Russia), is Berenson willing to admit that his CIA-apologist BS was just an EU-impoverishing, UKR-mulching, WW III-promoting delusion?

NO, Baghdad Bob Berenson just PROJECTS HIS DELUSIONS onto those who refuse to join his CIA death cult.
So, if you do not double down on sanctions that backfired and you do not see imaginary UKR victories or believe re-taking Crimea ‘will happen an day now’, or. god forbid, if you want to negotiate a settlement before we kill every last Ukrainian and start WW III in earnest, you are (rinse and repeat) a “right-winger” who swallows “lies that are so obvious and pathetic that I guess they serve as a sort of in-group signaling.”

The Administrator of this site is sure doing the CIA-Schwab-Soros-Nuland WWIII death cult a big favor by showcasing Langley parrots like Berenson.

Sometimes it’s the pussy that leads the supposed head around.

I have a cousin who couldn’t look me in the eye when I asked him if he took it after a face to face discussion, I was warning him about it and his body language gave him away. He was on my early warning list…to no avail. Then I find out (indirectly later on) his wife was bragging about their 6 year old granddaughter getting her booster!

When I asked him why he took it…He said he couldn’t take the pressure any longer.

Had to be his wife.

I love them both, and have seen them many times since…it is not a subject brought up anymore… they have made their choices…and we have made ours. They know where I stand as a rabid anti Big Pharma, government, PURE BLOOD.

He is all caught up in the LEFT – RIGHT political bullshit.

He was, probably still is a huge Trumper…long gone silent on Mr. Warp Speed WITH ME…I sent him back too much TRUTH…but I suspect now he is super nervous in the bio weapon victim service…and realizing what he has put into his own bloodstream…because of the pussy pressure…does not bode well. He has a sister in law who took it and had quick heart problems and mysterious sudden open heart surgery (no heart problems pre-jab)…oh yea, and they all had covid after their jabs.

Anyone who would put this poison into the arm of a 6 year old is too far gone for me.

One dope with charisma can launch a thousand hopium-dope ships. (And as I mentioned a bit back, China hasn’t forgotten those dopes.)

I guess confidence sells, she said, after her 3rd O in a row. All too often the big C & the big O do walk hand in hand into the fire.

Sales hot-hot-hot salsa … the top producers ~ closers ~ are unfailingly confident. And the top of the top producers are unfailingly delusional. They want to believe (the poster in Fox Mulder’s office) & they do. That was their first, biggest sale. They sold themselves. And bought a bill of compensation goods. Little dicks of all kinds abound. Megalosocio’s? Yes.

Fight the good fight? Fuel the good fire. Another brick in the wall. Another person fed to the pyre.

Who was that self-immolating Buddhist monk (the Vietnam part of the pyre) trying to impress? Whoever it was that impressed upon him the great idea of throwing himself away, is who. Por (accelerant) la causa.

Suppose they gave a war & nobody came. But they do come. The big C & the big O. If you build it, they will come. Pyre-Liar, Pants On Fire. But not only pants.

Suppose substitute “election” for “war.” The givers & the receivers are as servos & cannot do otherwise than they do.

(& neither can I.)

And for that, some religion’s gods instruct “forgive them.”

Forgive, forget, or Hatfields & McCoys forever, it doesn’t matter. Because no matter what you do, the firestarters are going to keep committing arson & immolation.

This is a ridiculous species.

If it was designed, with premeditation, then that designer is, at best Rube Goldberg. A damnable wannabe, churning out ford pintos & mickeyD burgers by the billions. There’s 50 people in these threads alone that could do a better job in their sleep. And there’s a few who would penstroke roman salutes.

That few & the asleeping rest is what it is, was, will be.

Awakened by the finches, 0400. Male finches, singing their throats out, in the pitch-dark. Know why? Spring. The early birds hope-hope-hope ~~compulsion~~they can persuade a lay. Compulsion’s the early worm that gets the birds, & just about everything else, too. To that please-fuck-me soundtrack, since sleep was song-cluded, I scribbled this. And the 1st piece of flambé I saw today was a fit (as it fits the tucker carlson, kennedy parade):

Tragedy:

Remembering what never was & forgetting what can never be is one coin. Central banks are made of this.

“Dr.” Frankenstein (an archetype for “doctors” & good little megalomaniacal germans) dis-membered corpses, re-membered pieces of corpses, flogged his “creation” with electricity, & cried “it’s alive!” Monsters are made of this … & so manifest/project/bring forth “create” monsters.

Neither creators nor createds ever want to believe they are monsters. Cogdis to the TBTF rescue.

Nobody on the tyranny-side of the divide is with the angels. Over There ♪♫♪ is nothing but angles. People playing angles. People be played by anglers.

Well, the ones over there look like people, anyway. So did “Dr.” Frank. So did his thing. Sorta more or less.

In the 60’s-70’s “recapped” tires were a thing.

If new tires weren’t in the budget (budgets used to be a thing, too), old tired out & tread-bare tires were re-membered. New treads were “sewn” on with electric-heat, pronounced alive, & ready for new tr/action.

How long before the re-membered tires dis-membered again was an unknown until it wasn’t.

But the headless shoulders of the Roman Roads were always littered with the debris of recap(itulation)s that had flown apart at the seams.

Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust. Re-membered to dis-membered.

And if the dis-member occurred at speed, as it so typically-often did, hoo-boy! The feeling of being alive was re-membered too, for as long as it lasted, until one way or another it was forgot again.

Nationalism is the Roman Road. Socialism (& all the other re-membered never was’s & so dis-membered could never be “ism’s”) are shredded recap litter lining the headless shoulders of that road.

Cue Cormac McCarthy’s The Road … for a recap.

Education? Learning? Even from direct experience? Even from the most brutal direct experience? Not in this species wheelhouse.

Instead, shortcuts to fat slices of hogs get slaughtered pot pie. Cue Don Mclean.

(What’s with the Mc’s? Some smart, creative, Scots in the woodpile. And some ~ probably, maybe ~ big-balled dummies, too. Cue Wm Wallace, & that lot.)

Best an outlier can do is get off, far from, the Roman Road.

Best a fossil can do? Wait for an archaeologist to “dig that about it,” & add it to the museum display cases, or storage warehouses, alongside all the iterations dug up previously.

Comedy:

I read this before lights out, last night.

“George Roy Hill:

Paul has a habit of pulling practical jokes, & the one he pulled in Johnstown, PA, when we were filming Slap Shot, upset me very, very much. I’m not immune to practical jokes, but this was absolutely insane.

There was a guy on our crew, a focus puller, he was right there on the camera all the time. I don’t know if Paul knew it or not, but he had a heart condition.

There was a shot where Paul had to drive his car into a space, park there, then walk into a nearby house. About two or three car lengths around the corner from the house was a garage where we were having all our vehicles in the film serviced. Well, Paul drove up to his mark very fast, put on the brakes, then literally slid into his spot. He came over to me & said, “Listen, I’m worried; the brakes on this car just aren’t very good.”

“Take it easy Paul, & don’t take any chances. We’ll just do it a couple more times to see if it is safe.”

He agreed, I called “Action!” & Paul came barreling up the road again, faster than before. He went straight through our shot, out of sight & around the corner to where that garage was – when suddenly we heard a tremendous crash. There was dust everywhere, a stray wheel rolled out into the street; I goddamn near died, & our focus puller was so shaken he began clutching his chest & we had to get him home.

I ran over to investigate & saw & heard our crew members laughing. The whole incident had been a fake, staged. I wanted to fire everyone, including Paul, though I couldn’t do the picture without him.

I was furious & resented terribly that the guys would pull a stunt like this – though I realized that Paul, being who he is, likely talked them into it. I was ready to bring in a whole new crew, but Paul pleaded: “You can’t do that; I can’t be responsible for all these guys losing their jobs. I couldn’t take that, it would just undo me.”

I finally saw his logic & came around. I told him all right, & the moment I said it, Paul cried. He wiped his eyes & said, “Jesus God, tears yet!” In just a moment he was trying to make a joke out of the whole thing.

I know they all thought it was hilarious & funny, but I don’t see the humor in destroying things, ever. And this caused pain, real pain. Paul finally realized it had been a stupid thing to do.

If I wanted to psychoanalyze practical jokes, you could say they are just hidden, though not really well-hidden, hostilities. You don’t put people into bad situations where they get anxiety-filled & shocked, where someone nearly has a heart attack. It’s just real anger. When Paul & I talked about it later, I made the point to him that this was really his hostility showing, & he’s since told me that the incident was a turning point; he hasn’t staged a practical joke since then. Of course, it is very difficult to think of Paul as a hostile man in any respect. It’s just his humor, & frankly, some of Paul’s humor is pretty terrible – usually on the raunchy side, too. He does come up with some very funny things, but as Paul himself says, his humor comes right out of the toilet.” ~ Paul Newman, The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man, A Memoir

The motto, tho, really is fuck around & *never* find out.

Except at the margins.

And that don’t wag this dog, that repetitively-compulsively keeps returning to the vomit it doesn’t have the stomach pH to digest, or the brains to quit re-eating.

I am a recently retired RN. I warned coworkers,patients,doctors,neighbors,friends,and extended family that there was a reason that vaccine field trials were done in poor,shytehole countries.It takes years to perfect any vaccine.People are injured and people die.Buy off the Big Man In Charge and you can kill all you want. Most people act like sheep.They didn’t want facts.They wanted to be reassurred. I take great satisfaction in keeping my grandchildren UN-vaccinated. I also expect to have the satisfaction of outliving most of those i tried to warn.

One Eyed Jacks are wild,

I have a friend whose daughter calls me Uncle. She just became a nurse at the start of Covid in her dream hospital job.

As the jab was coming out I asked him what was his and her stance. He said he probably wasn’t going to take it…but she was on the fence…she loved her job in the maternity ward.

I relentlessly sent him (and his wife) and his daughter the top links and vids I could find warning against it, many from TBP.

She applied for a Christen exemption and the hospital turned her down…but by that time she had fallen on the right side of the fence and today the entire family are all Pure Bloods…she found another career and is doing fantastic without being killed, disabled, or slowly poisoned over the coming years (at least not from this).

It is the same friend I think I have convinced to LOOK UP when Chemtrails cover the sky above his house.

I also think I have finally convinced him Michele Obama has a dick…so this is a triple banger.

Superb.

I am done with them, too.

Fortunately, I live in a quiet little suburb of the sticks in Podunk, Nowhere amidst a pack of hillbillies worth their weight in moonshine and homegrown non-gmo weed.

Followed you from the get-go, Alex… acquainted with the JConabike saga, you were truth-telling when truth-telling wasn’t cool.

JC got throwed for a loop with the announcement for candidacy of his friend and patron (of sorts) RFK, Jr. I really sympathize with the effort underway to force the MSM to give him the respect a serious contender for US President like RFK, Jr. possesses in spades, but I know that our entire federal government has been overthrown in a regime change the likes of which the world has never seen.

They really will be seizing the farmlands soon, I believe. I took a meandering drive through Southeast Misery not too long ago and am stunned at the changes to the landscape over the past five years or so… not only have the homes and yards and little patches of trees simply become farmland for miles and miles and miles, so also have the old churches fallen and been plowed under. Growing Roundup Ready GMO corn and soybeans takes priority over any semblance of family farm bullshit.

Anyway, ten years ago we moved out here ten years too soon and now we are snug as bugs in rugs.

Edited: A 3-acre plot with small home and creek access is available to a recommended bidder for 115k. Small 2-bed/1 bath/laundry utility room addition recently renovated.

Non-Gmo Weed. This is amazing to me that folks turned on their own natural supply, then buy GMO Gov’t Weed. Monsanto GMO+Round-Up ready dope. People have become what they consume. They are now GMO’d and are ready for the round-up into camps. Up here in Canada the Gov’t Approved weed growers have grown so much they are practically giving it away. Lbs for basically shipping costs. The companies themselves have been doing “fell off the truck” sales thru back channels. I have noticed too that once people buy GovDope they start smoking it incessantly. Whereas some folks would blow a dart here and there. They now wake up and smoke as often as cigarette smokers. They also give up rolling their own, buy pre-rolled and incessantly hit bowls. They also all of a sudden trust the gov’t. Up here we had GovDope before pandemic. First store was in 2019. Then all of the guys that used to be wary of most things, started preaching passports and vaccines and couldn’t wait to get both. Insane. There is something in the GMO weed bro.

If you are not following , @Jikkyleaks , Twitter pages , you are behind the curve.

‘ Because it was seeded in advance of the Wuhan event. Obviously. The false perception that it spread this fast organically justified lockdown of the world. It produced fear and caused seasoned doctors to shut up and listen to the man who funded the virus but treats no patients. ‘

👋 The virus and the vaccine contain the same thing 👋 it’s an RNA coated virus made up of a lipid bilayer and 4 proteins

As a mathematician and Engineer who worked on various mathematical models and peer review math I sat and witnessed decades, centuries even 1000s of years of science go out the door. For example Natural Immunity, understood since the Plague of Athens almost 2500yrs ago by force vaccinating people who had already survived the virus as just one.

I think I might have one friend and maybe two. Whenever someone uses that term with me, my being slides to unworthy.

That said, if someone meets me and wants to comment about my lack of friends, I will half heartedly try to find the people who said I should be dead as someone who refused the shot.

Later, fren.

If you really thought any of this was real, use your eyes- I met few or no people during this planned event that believed it. And I traveled during that/ this time. Look with your eyes, just wrote to an entire community that agrees this was a “plandemmic”. All political spectrum that I’ve met saw or has seen the light- I’m hugely doubtful that anything that was written is true, because I believe what I SEE
