Are those who oppose a ban on cars or a radical reduction in speed limits sociopaths, given the huge number of people they are knowingly consigning to death or maiming?
This a fantastic and timely article. Heather MacDonald was talking about this exact topic well over a year ago, but she's a "conservative" so she got no play at all.
I work in the Bad Neighborhood and the lockdowns and masks have been devastating. I had two seniors, young women, who attempted suicide. But for early intervention they would have succeeded. No one cared - because COVID! Because they were unable to meet or socialize, so we could use two weeks (now over 600 days) to "flattenthecurve", they had all of their teen issues exacerbated and they were almost destroyed. I had another student get shot and killed. He would have graduated in June 2021, but no one cared, because of two things: he wasn't killed by a white male wearing a badge, and because COVID! I wrote about him here:
As NYC begins an insane round of vaccine segregation, the ripple effects will be terrible. If you were told for the last 2 years that the USA was a systemically racist, unconscionably corporate, bigoted hellhole since 1619, then told to get a Gov't and Big Pharma vaccine because, well, THIS time those selfsame institutions are suddenly looking out for your best interests - you'd be leery of the vaccine too. This is why we have around 39% of the African American population fully vaccinated. But NYC is seeing to it that the Black population will not be allowed to go into restaurants, clubs, museums, or any other establishment. This is only one aspect of the continued madness of this new Religion.
Not only is the cost benefit analysis not being recognized, the trampling of Civil Rights is afoot, because COVID! The silence of the ACLU is unbelievable. This new religion of COVID, seemingly spearheaded by outfits like the World Economic Forum and their "Great Reset", is going to have the effect that all of these globalist maneuvers will have: it will decimate, discriminate and destroy the people who can least afford it.
NYC has collapsed under its 'leadership' (I'm in NYC), and Greenwald's assessment is correct, timely, and deserves a wide audience. We need regular people to push back, because the Corporate Media / Government Complex isn't.
I've been wondering how the woke cult is going to justify their support for vaccine segregation in light of it negatively impacting the black community. It shall be interesting.
Exactly. People outside the Left tend to overestimate the knowledge of the typical Leftist. There are a lot of things that we think everybody knows that these people have never heard before.
That is because in the u.s. "Left" and "Right" are being manipulated and guided by "their" respective medias. First, the "Right" alienated the supposed "Left" by their 1980's/1990's/early 2000's agendas that started with anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-union, pro-prayer in schools, pro-racism (Willy Horton and "tough on crime"), pro-corporate, and then, after 9/11, moved on to pro-war/anti-Muslim. No distinctions were made between Neocon "Right" and Libertarian "Right". Now, in order to see a debate about some of the issues that mattered to the 1990's pre-9/11 "Left" (globalization and transgenic crops, and anti-interventionism, for example), you have to read Libertarian-oriented sites. On some issues, "Left" and "Right" have totally traded places. Bush and Obama functioned as sanitizers for certain agendas. People need to be able to think in terms of vision and issues rather than "Left" and "Right" if there is going to be any truth told.. Otherwise Fox and MSNBC (plus the gatekeepers) will always be there to think for you and implant your mind with their software (belief system).
Key Point: The cult of the woke don't even consider black people to be People. The woke view black people as a means pump up their own egos as caregivers to the "helpless."
Meanwhile, that same group complained their youth are disproportionately being put in jail all voted for the guy whose laws put minorities in jail in record numbers.
The reality is that the techbros who funded and control the media these days all said it better be Biden not Sanders and thats why we have Quid Pro Joe.
If you wanted to created a 'systemic racism' ticket, you'd start with a guy who's been writing racist laws for decades, and then you'd add in a corrupt DA who's been using those laws to lock up people -- even when she knows they are innocent.
Not disagreeing. As for political donations specifically: most family office strategies are to donate to viable candidates on *all* sides if you wanna be a player (e.g. need political support).
The arrangement you use as evidence may not be the strongest evidence.
That is not to say anything about the validity of your point. I kind of got confused by the last sentence.
Well, it's racist if minority citizens have to show ID to vote, so it follows that it's racist if minority citizens have to show proof of vax. I'm just going by the program.
Even better - they will claim that the reason blacks aren't getting vaccinated is because of white supremacy and whites preventing blacks from getting vaccinated lol
They will never acknowledge the fact that many populations including blacks, hispanics are very skeptical of the medical community due to past experiences.
Aba & Preach did a very good take down video of Philip DeFranco on this topic:
Easy, they pretend the majority of unvaccinated are conservatives and Trumpers.
The left has a problem in that they simply ignore the minority communities until they can weaponize them, just like they do with violence. Minority on minority violence = no story for liberal media. White guy kills one minority (George Zimmerman is a great example) its the biggest news story for 2 years.
Although you say you "saw" the study, you didn't read it carefully, and maybe you didn't see the actual study at all. You are wrong in saying the study claims "the vast majority of people with a PHD are not taking the vaccine". Instead, it said that 77% of people who say they have a PhD either have taken the vaccine or at least probably would take the vaccine if one was offered to them today. The remaining 23% of people who say they have a PhD have not taken the vaccine and either probably or definitely wouldn't take a vaccine if one was offered to them today. So, the vast majority of people with a PhD ARE willing to take the vaccine according to the study. But the study claims that PhDs are more likely than other education groups to be unwilling to take the vaccine, which is what came up in the headline of the MSN article. I see some reason to doubt the study's claims on that.
There are several flaws in the study. It's not peer-reviewed. Their sampling method isn't that great ("soft ask and low response rate"), and was limited to Facebook users. PhD holders who use Facebook and complete a survey there are probably less likely to take the vaccine than PhD holders in general. Perhaps the most important flaw is that there are reasons to doubt that respondents who claim to have a PhD really have one.
The study's authors note that they don't know if the survey was completed in good faith. And in fact they are pretty sure that some respondents who claimed to have doctorates do not. They say "those who selected self-described gender had a high frequency of uncommon responses [28.1% claimed to have a doctorate] suggesting the survey was not completed in good faith." The study's authors also note that their sample shows a higher percentage of people with PhDs than would be found in the general population of US adults. So it is likely that some respondents who don't want to take the vaccine are also falsely claiming to have PhDs, inflating the numbers. The authors say "Further investigation into hesitancy among those with a PhD is warranted."
As of today, they don't seem to care. The COVID religion trumps everything, always, at all times. GG's number for the United States - people under 18, is true. None of it matters.
Being a good patient requires informed cooperation with the staff, not just passive submission to whatever they want to do to you. If you're unconscious, hope for the best. If you're conscious, everything they do to you is up to you. Ignorance is not bliss. You get one body, with no warranty. Learn to take care of it.
This isn't new with covid. Medical malfeasance has been a major cause of death for a long time. Covid has accelerated it, amped up by corrupt covernments pushing vaccines and patent medicines to incite fear and submission. But it is enabled by the propaganda media who studiously ignore the damage and support the government spin. We knew we couldn't trust government or media, but we're in big trouble if we can no longer trust doctors.
60% of Those Older Than 50 Who Die From COVID Are Double Vaxxed
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola
As of August 15, 2021, 68% of COVID patients admitted to hospital in the U.K. who were over the age of 50 had received one or two doses of COVID injections. By mid-August, 59% of serious cases in Israel were also among those who had received two COVID injections, mirroring U.K. data
Only in the 50 and younger category were a majority, 74%, of British COVID patients unvaccinated. Those claiming we’re in a pandemic of the unvaccinated fail to differentiate between age groups
The same applies to COVID deaths in the U.K. Unvaccinated make up the majority of deaths only in the under-50 age group. In the over-50 group, the clear majority, 70%, are either partially or fully “vaccinated”
We cannot rely on U.S. data to get a clear idea of how the COVID shots are working, as the CDC has chosen to only track breakthrough cases that result in hospitalization and/or death
Reanalysis of Pfizer’s, Moderna’s and Janssen’s COVID trial data using the proper endpoint show the shots are hurting the health of the population, and if mass vaccination continues we face “a looming vaccine-induced public health catastrophe”
Cash, COVID, and cover-up, part 1: The questions we should have asked of Fauci about the origins of COVID-19
Less than two years ago, an outbreak of a new, flu-like virus that would eventually be known as COVID-19 began in Wuhan, China. Today, almost 5 million people globally have died from this pandemic, and we are no closer to understanding how it began. Well, that's not entirely true.
Don’t worry, though. You can be confident this has nothing to do with political pressure to push boosters or vaccines for kids or the full “approval” that came last week.
A graph, originally created by the New York Times, shows internal CDC documents acquired from the Washington Post of how infectious and lethal the delta variant is in comparison to other diseases.
Chairman Jeffery McKay with Fairfax County says he’s expecting an announcement in the near future regarding a mask mandate. “We in Fairfax County will follow, as we always have, CDC guidance and any direction from the governor,” said McKay. “And I would suspect that in the days and weeks ahead there may be more announcements about that.”
The CDC internal document data also shows the delta variant may be infectious for longer about 18 days compared to ancestral strains at 13 days, meaning quarantine periods could be longer.
"but we're in big trouble if we can no longer trust doctors."--Mr. Watson
It depends on the doctors. There are doctors like Judy Mikovich, Doctror Mercola. or Dr. David Martin. Then there are the "insuranse doctors" like Kaiser Perm and other factory scale hospital businesses, who are as brainwashed as the prostitute "news people" on mainstream media...essentially zombie drones.
Just this morning I read a disinfo propaganda piece in Forbes denying that the Pfizer 'vaccine' contains Graphine Oxide,
However here is a study speaking to the 'Benefits' of nano partical (solgels) for such drugs:
Nanomedicine: A Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach to COVID-19
"Nanoparticles can enhance drug-based therapies by optimizing uptake, stability, target cell-specific delivery, and magnetic properties. In fact, recent studies have highlighted the potential of nanoparticles in different aspects of the fight against SARS-CoV-2, such as enhancing biosensors and diagnostic tests, drug therapies, designing new delivery mechanisms, and optimizing vaccines. This article summarizes the ongoing research on diagnostic strategies, treatments, and vaccines for COVID-19, while emphasizing the potential of nanoparticle-based pharmaceuticals and vaccines."
Graphene Oxide is one such nanoparticle that many scientific researchers have discovered in the mRNA solutuon called "vaccines".
It is a bloody madhouse of contradictions in the literature!
Some on this forum may hoop and hollar making fun of the title of this piece on my blog, but the title is an accurate description of the situation. And the information from dozens of sources depicts a horrific picture of what is happening:
" If you were told for the last 2 years that the USA was a systemically racist, unconscionably corporate, bigoted hellhole since 1619, then told to get a Gov't and Big Pharma vaccine because, well, THIS time those selfsame institutions are suddenly looking out for your best interests - you'd be leery of the vaccine too."
This line fantastically sums up the heavy bullshit the left has been serving in my lifetime. The same left that told us for decades "the man" was not to be trusted are now putting on their government jackboots because their party is in power. Its fucking horrific.
In early 2020 I began writing about doubts. By mid-February I was buried in criticism for spreading misinformation by writing that every other corona virus was spread human to human, we should assume COVID19 was as well; that social distancing of two meters was based on 19th century research on bacteria, missing the fact that viruses were much smaller and lighter than bacteria, making the real distance eight meters. This continued for two years. I've been repeatedly banned.
The international picture is far worse than ours. Shutting down our food production, spreading panic world-wide, will have far more serious conseque4nes. There are few seaports that service Africa,, and as many as five or more borders must be transited before reaching some countries. The same applies to Central Asia. Mass starvation and food insecurity lasting generations will follow.
We are now divided between good vaccinated and bad unvaccinated people. One-size-fits-a;ll medicine is stupid. Good treatments are labeled dangerous misinformation and can't be used. Practicing physicians are ignored, while medical bureaucrats rule. This is insanty
I only wrote what I had learned in medical school in Germany in the 1980s, and from my brief work as a psychiatrist there before family needs caused me to return to the US. I then left medicine permanently and followed other careers. I did follow a few journals and read perhaps five or six peer-reviewed articles per month. We knew everything we needed to know to prevent a pandemic: protect the elderly and obese, practice good sanitation and put patients outdoors where there is nearly a zero chance of infection.
Greenwald's piece is welcome, but there is nothing "bizarre" about the way the governance structures are being globally reorganized, not when one looks at who and what institutions are involved in ushering in this new system of forced medical interventions, 360 degree biomedical surveillance, and other Orwellian wet dreams.
At this point, I wish people like Greenwald and Taibi would just go for the nuclear option and start reporting on Whitney Webb's work over at Unlimited Hangouts. The discrepancies, dissemination of contradictory information, and withholding of other vital information is not "bizarre" when we look at who is shaping these policies top down, and their intentions...
US Intel Agencies Played Unsettling Role in Classified and “9/11-like” Coronavirus Response Plan:
There is a recurring "transhumanist" ideology underlying all the radical overhauls in health policy, and the introduction of new technocratic forms of governance where elected officials become essentially superfluous, subordinated to the decrees of the scientific clergy, otherwise known as the "expert" class.
These new and weird technocratic forms of governance are being used to make "human engineering" and "transhumanist" policies the norm. Anyone who has a sense of the history of things like "transhumanism" (a word coined by the former director of the British Eugenics Society, Julian Huxley) can quickly recognize that transhumanism is simply a re-branding of the same old eugenics programs. The only difference is now, thanks to things like the "Human Genome Project," the "human engineering" enthusiasts believe they have all the data and statistical models needed to prove their ideas and make "the unthinkable once again thinkable."
Today, people over at the World Economic Forum call it the "Fourth Industrial Revolution." It is a world in which as one of the WEF's high priests Yuval Hariri says, humans will no longer be struggling for survival, but "relevance," since machines are supposedly going to create a new "global useless class." Thus, so the thinking of the WEF's priesthood goes, we will need to find new ways of making ourselves relevant and enhance our capacities, including "merging with machines" and adopting "human engineering" to make ourselves more "efficient."
I see Jennifer, so you didn't mean, "It's the Jews". You meant 'It's the Israelis.
That is a different kettle of fish, because the Jewish people in general do not have intelligence operatives, and state agendas in the same way that the Israeli state does.
The same confusion came about when certain researchers claimed and Israeli connetion in the 9/11 attacks. The researchers were accused of anti-Semitism.
I submit to you that it is not anti-Semitism to criticise the Israeli state. Even if Israel is a theocracy as some would charge, there is still the fact that the majority of the worlds Jewish population lives outside of Isreal.
BTW I do not think that Isreal was involve in the attacks on 9/11. but it is clear that they did have intelligence on the matter.
Hasn’t the media also been calling California gubernatorial candidate the “black face of white supremacy” ie throw everything at the guy because the establishment is genuinely scared?
You seem to be using the same kind of tactics.
Whitney Webb is one of the best and most honest journalists out there, shining a real bright light on the military, intelligence and surveillance state. And the other link was a podcast on eugenicist Julian Huxley and the history of Transhumanism, which everyone should know about since it’s the guiding philosophy for many Great Reset and surveillance state architects.
As William asked below, please show us all the “It’s the Jews” excerpts that everyone else missed.
You wouldn’t want people to think you’re just making it up to smear people.
Ok, well, in this article she blames Isreal for hacking the elections because some technology used in our elections comes from Isreal, and Isreal has done some bad things, so.. Jews interferring in our elections.
"With intelligence agencies in the U.S. and Israel not only crafting the narrative about 2020 foreign meddling, but also dominating these technologies and simulating their use to upend the coming election, it becomes crucial to consider the motivations behind this narrative and if these intelligence agencies have ulterior motives in promoting and simulating such outcomes that would effectively end American democracy and hand almost total power to the national security state."
And then she's all over spyware Toka and Pegasus, which are awful but she claims without evidence that they are a front for the Isrealli state. Maybe, but again it's more speculation due to a former politician having invested in the company. Again, this spyware is concerning, but she's getting all lizard people in her insistance of some global jewish cabal running it all. Doesn't she know every country has this stuff?
I'm not establishment and I'm not scared, but rabid anti-semitism in an unfortunate aspect of the far left, and in my opinion, despite some otherwise fine reporting, Whitney Webb has bit the bug. I'm not trying to cancel or smear her, simply stated that she lost credibility with me when I looked into some of her writings.
Just a few days ago James Lindsay at New Discourses had a strong post that vaccine passports are systemically racist in terms of Critical Race Theory. Negatively affect Blacks and are known to do so, intent does not matter. He opposed CRT and wants vax passport proponents called out for racism to make his point, but if you believe in CRT the point still stands
And yet those same gun lovers will act Ronnie Reagan farted perfume and pissed holy water, conveniently forgetting his own fascism because it didnt occur against them.
SMH
Fuck fuck fuck the NRA, I've said this since I first learned of them and their impotence.
If not for NRA we wouldn't have any right to self defense at all. They're not perfect but you don't really want nice guys defending you. Ruthlessness wins political fights just like it wins gun fights.
Guns are another accurate comparison for Glenn's zero risk challenge. Just as the timid fear every virus, even though they have the innate capability to kill every covid germ they meet, so to do the timid fear every gun, even though it could save their life in the off chance they encounter violence. The dying thought of everyone shot by a criminal is probably "I shuda been armed..."
Successful people learn to use the tools available to them, including medicine, and transportation, and defense. Sometimes it works to let others handle it for them. Often that doesn't work.
I roll with Gun Owners of America, they are no compromise and make no deals. No big overhead like the NRA. The NRA is well intended just not my type of grass roots activists.
It's like picking a favorite player on a ball team. It's the team that gets the win. In this game, NRA gets the publicity, the MVP, so has most of the influence. Other players make a lot of contributions. Some of the more aggressive actions are happening in really tyrannical states like Cal and NY. Both have very active and effective state associations, deserving of support.
"Both Republicans and Democrats in California supported increased gun control, as did the National Rifle Association of America. Governor Ronald Reagan, who was coincidentally present on the capitol lawn when the protesters arrived, later commented that he saw "no reason why on the street today a citizen should be carrying loaded weapons" and that guns were a "ridiculous way to solve problems that have to be solved among people of good will." In a later press conference, Reagan added that the Mulford Act "would work no hardship on the honest citizen."
I remember when The Mulford Act was signed into law. My father laughed until he cried, then he cried some more.
The irony being today's 'progressives' (who ostensibly support the Black Panthers being that they are minorities) have no desire to repeal a conservative, Republican-constructed and Reagan-signed bill that targeted those very same Panthers.
Keeping whitebread oppressive laws from the 1960's that were designed to keep minorities from being armed is totally OK in the progressive Mecca known as CA.
This has nothing to do with race except to people to whom everything has to do with race. The government oppression were all suffering doesn't discriminate by race, age, sex or anything but power. The rulers and their cronies have one set of rules, and they use other rules to keep the rest of us docile and submissive. Those who try to insert extraneous issues are missing the point.
Yes. Race is CONTENT and McLuhan has carefully instructed us to know that content is irrelevant. The MEDIUM is the MESSAGE. Now it is important to carefully discriminate those categories and to KNOW what the MESSAGE is. Think Trump. His administration was the MEDIUM. What was its MESSAGE? That is the question to ask and answer yet everyone continues to argue about CONTENT which is irrelevant.
Hmm, a male who rushes to address women condescendingly with terms like "deary" or "dear". I've pointed out before how condescending you're being, but it seems you're just starting to do it more with women.
A lot of people prattle about race without saying why. Seems their only message is signaling their own perception of virtue. But what do race obsessives actually want, or do? Apparently just complaining about others is sufficient for them. Content is all that matters for most people, but for some it's sufficient just to prattle.
Trumps messages were clear to about half the country. Probably clear to the other half, too, they just didn't like it. Anybody doesn't understand the messages should ask. Communication is always a two way process. Many messages are sent, but just not received.
The sad part is we've trained a couple generations to view themselves ax victims. That's a defeatist attitude that only works on other losers. We used to be more self confident. Maybe we will be again
I agree. Sometime I hope all of this is a bad dream that we all wake up from one day and it’s gone. Maybe a trend that just goes away. Another part of me says it is the new normal and here to stay.
The final insult when someone has run out of anything of substance to reply. Typical of adolescent communication but you are no longer an adolescent from your pic honey. Try stupider people to fool. You know, the Biden way of doing things.
MESSAGE: confidence; direct communication; saying what you mean and meaning what you say; assuming the risk in acting on your decisions; Saying what you think is the truth no matter how offensive it is to many others; avoiding the INSTITUTIONALIZED POLITICAL DISCOURSE!
Women "attempt" suicide at higher rates because they aren't really trying to kill themselves; it's a cry for help. Men and boys actually commit much higher rates of suicide from mid teens to elderly because we don't allow men to cry for help.
I believe someone like Glenn (with his vision, absolute intelligence and fantastic writing skills) would be needed to investigate the undeniable truth: N.Y. City and State absolutely, no question asked deserve what they have. Winston Churchill said "Every country has a government it deserves." Cannot be more true to N.Y. City and State. It would be great if Glenn wrote an analysis how a society like N.Y. is able to vote the two absolute worst governor and mayor into power; multiple times. All I can tell New Yorkers: "Enjoy them"
WHERE THE HELL is the DEBATE over MANDATED VACCINES?!?!? Look at deBladio’s NYC wide mandate, now in Los Angeles and I’m sure it will be a domino effect, soon to arrive at your Blue State City. It’s is OUTRAGEOUS that ppl would be fired from their job for not taking the “SHOT” or denied a continued membership at their health facility, or access to restaurants, public events etc. WHY should ppl who ALREADY had Covid & have antibodies be mandated to take this shot?? WHY is no one discussing those who have compromised immune problems and were advised by their DOCTORS NOT TO TAKE THE SHOT not factored in?! WHY, now that we KNOW, the vaccinated are also still TRANSMITTING Covid and can get Covid again, aren’t we allowed to do the cost benefit analysis and decide for OURSELVES whether or not we want to reduce our own personal chance of “severe symptoms/hospitalization?!” VS the UNKNOWN LONGTERM health implications of this “shot” that has YUUUGE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST among those individuals and agencies which are behind its development ?! WHY hasn’t there been a VERY public debate regarding safe, effective, credible and known TREATMENTS?! WHY Aren’t we hearing anything about the actual debate that is occurring among world renowned neurologists and vaccine developers formerly with Pfizer and Merck and Gates foundation (Geert Vanden Bossche) and countless others about the risks of a mass vaccination rollout during a pandemic and the likelihood of breakout cases and the CREATION of more and more variants? WHY in the hell hasn’t that debate been occurring and why hasn’t it been covered main stream outlets? I am grateful for 20 Greenwald four this article regarding rational cost benefit analysis of policies regarding Covid. But, the giant elephant in the room is mandated vaccines, which is why you’re seeing millions and millions of people around the globe protesting yes. Where are the large protests here in the United States? Don’t people realize this it’s a scary slippery slope leading to authoritarian control? Have they forgotten Michael Chertoff and his airport scanners after 911 saying “they could milk those surveillance capabilities & policies” for years?? What the hell is wrong with people? They have succumbed to the fear mongering and lost all rational objective thought.
What I don't understand is this -- isn't demanding proof of vaccination a violation of HIPPA rights? The right to privacy concerning our health history?
Employers are not immune to lawsuits when negative results happen from the vacs the way the govt and Pfizer are exempt. Armstrong is financially supporting anyone who takes this to court.
Yes, sir. You are an individual, and not a health care provider or one of the other covered entities listed in that link. As an individual being asked/required to show proof of vaccination, you cannot violate your own HIPAA rights (because you, as an individual, are not covered under HIPAA). An example of a HIPAA violation would be your health care provider providing that information to your employer without your consent.
So, if my healthcare provider told a survey company that I take X drug and the survey company offered me $100 to take a drug survey, is that a violation?
What does the *Forth* amendment say? Fifth protects you in criminal cases. You can refuse, but not by citing the *Fifth.* The fourth pertains to governments, not businesses. The Supreme Court ruled in 1905 (Jacobson v. Massachusetts) that health departments had the right to require the smallpox vaccination and to require proof of vaccination. The ninth? Who knows.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things
>>Supreme Court rulings are like a yoyo, up and down loop't'loop. The PEOPLE dicide what the Constitution means by acceptance of draconian laws or dissent against such laws<<
The Fifth Amendment

>>This amendment applies because one need not reveal ones status one way or the other to authiorities on any subject.<<
The Ninth Amendment:

What is at stake when accepting an injection of these unknown solutions?
The evidence is clear that the mainstream is lying about the after effects of these injections even in the short term. And many virologists have been warning that the long term effects are likely devistating.
Inform yourselves. do not walk blindly into the abyss.
It's always interesting that constitutional questions decided in the courts are always split decisions. Rights, and truth, are never absolute, but subjected to the whims of the majority. Wins come from winning the majority.
No. It is worth noting that HIPAA only applies to HIPAA-covered entities, business associates of HIPAA-covered entities, and subcontractors of business associates. There are no restrictions on disclosures of information about the 2019 Novel Coronavirus and COVID-19 by other entities; however, while HIPAA may not apply, other federal and state laws may do.
The answer to all of JT's questions is "fear." The country is driven by hysteria, incited by corrupt media, orchestrated by tyrants, enabled by ignorance.
Social media has greatly undermined our ability in public discourse to conduct careful analysis based on reason and replaced it mainly with triggered emotionalism. The Histrionic States of America.
This a fantastic and timely article. Heather MacDonald was talking about this exact topic well over a year ago, but she's a "conservative" so she got no play at all.
I work in the Bad Neighborhood and the lockdowns and masks have been devastating. I had two seniors, young women, who attempted suicide. But for early intervention they would have succeeded. No one cared - because COVID! Because they were unable to meet or socialize, so we could use two weeks (now over 600 days) to "flattenthecurve", they had all of their teen issues exacerbated and they were almost destroyed. I had another student get shot and killed. He would have graduated in June 2021, but no one cared, because of two things: he wasn't killed by a white male wearing a badge, and because COVID! I wrote about him here:

As NYC begins an insane round of vaccine segregation, the ripple effects will be terrible. If you were told for the last 2 years that the USA was a systemically racist, unconscionably corporate, bigoted hellhole since 1619, then told to get a Gov't and Big Pharma vaccine because, well, THIS time those selfsame institutions are suddenly looking out for your best interests - you'd be leery of the vaccine too. This is why we have around 39% of the African American population fully vaccinated. But NYC is seeing to it that the Black population will not be allowed to go into restaurants, clubs, museums, or any other establishment. This is only one aspect of the continued madness of this new Religion.
Not only is the cost benefit analysis not being recognized, the trampling of Civil Rights is afoot, because COVID! The silence of the ACLU is unbelievable. This new religion of COVID, seemingly spearheaded by outfits like the World Economic Forum and their "Great Reset", is going to have the effect that all of these globalist maneuvers will have: it will decimate, discriminate and destroy the people who can least afford it.
NYC has collapsed under its 'leadership' (I'm in NYC), and Greenwald's assessment is correct, timely, and deserves a wide audience. We need regular people to push back, because the Corporate Media / Government Complex isn't.
I've been wondering how the woke cult is going to justify their support for vaccine segregation in light of it negatively impacting the black community. It shall be interesting.
As long as the media is telling them only Conservatives are unvaccinated how would they know?
Exactly. People outside the Left tend to overestimate the knowledge of the typical Leftist. There are a lot of things that we think everybody knows that these people have never heard before.
That is because in the u.s. "Left" and "Right" are being manipulated and guided by "their" respective medias. First, the "Right" alienated the supposed "Left" by their 1980's/1990's/early 2000's agendas that started with anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-union, pro-prayer in schools, pro-racism (Willy Horton and "tough on crime"), pro-corporate, and then, after 9/11, moved on to pro-war/anti-Muslim. No distinctions were made between Neocon "Right" and Libertarian "Right". Now, in order to see a debate about some of the issues that mattered to the 1990's pre-9/11 "Left" (globalization and transgenic crops, and anti-interventionism, for example), you have to read Libertarian-oriented sites. On some issues, "Left" and "Right" have totally traded places. Bush and Obama functioned as sanitizers for certain agendas. People need to be able to think in terms of vision and issues rather than "Left" and "Right" if there is going to be any truth told.. Otherwise Fox and MSNBC (plus the gatekeepers) will always be there to think for you and implant your mind with their software (belief system).
Exactly. They will simply pretend it isn’t happening.
That 'let's pretend' strategy has been working really well for them for a long time.
Key Point: The cult of the woke don't even consider black people to be People. The woke view black people as a means pump up their own egos as caregivers to the "helpless."
This is obvious because they attack anybody who 'should' be Democrat as a traitor. Don't you know that if you don't vote for Biden, you ain't black?
Exactly. I saw an headline recently calling Larry Elder, something to the effect of, a racist with a black face.
First the Sec of State refused to put Larry Elder on the recall election. Larry sued and won.
Next LATimes published the "Larry Elder is the Black face of white supremacy. You’ve been warned" trash.
When this didn't work, now they brought out some ex-fiance of Larry to claim he abused her.....
Soon someone will claim Larry and Kavanaugh were gang raping them 35 years ago....
Happily ignoring the fact their current Messiah - JFK
was a mafia-connected philanderer who had 10+ mistresses
or the other messiah Barry O
happily photographed laughing with known Anti-Semite and SPLC hate criminal Farrakhan.
The left is happy to ignore facts if it suits them
Thats this race baiter at the LA Times' article.
https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-08-20/recall-candidate-larry-elder-is-a-threat-to-black-californians
I don't watch Fox but someone shared Tucker Carlson comedically destroy the LATimes last night which is a funny watch:

Yes! That was it.
Meanwhile, that same group complained their youth are disproportionately being put in jail all voted for the guy whose laws put minorities in jail in record numbers.
The reality is that the techbros who funded and control the media these days all said it better be Biden not Sanders and thats why we have Quid Pro Joe.
https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2020/03/02/nyt-big-tech-executives-tell-dems-anyone-but-sanders/
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/02/technology/silicon-valley-bernie-sanders.html
If you wanted to created a 'systemic racism' ticket, you'd start with a guy who's been writing racist laws for decades, and then you'd add in a corrupt DA who's been using those laws to lock up people -- even when she knows they are innocent.
The NYT article quotes Keith Rabois, silicon valley investor....
Keith is ostensibly a Republican, per his donations:
https://www.opensecrets.org/search?order=desc&q=keith+rabois&sort=A&type=donors
And Keith's young boyfriend Jacob Helberg makes sure to do all the donations to DNC
https://www.opensecrets.org/search?order=desc&q=jacob+helberg&sort=A&type=donors
Keith works with Vinod Kholsa, another major DNC donor.
https://www.opensecrets.org/search?order=desc&q=vinod+khosla&sort=A&type=donors
So you see the NYT using a quasi-Republican who is really DNC to attack Trump and at the same time push Biden vs Sanders.
This is why we saw Sanders pushed out just like in 2016, even after he won the first 3 primaries.
Not disagreeing. As for political donations specifically: most family office strategies are to donate to viable candidates on *all* sides if you wanna be a player (e.g. need political support).
The arrangement you use as evidence may not be the strongest evidence.
That is not to say anything about the validity of your point. I kind of got confused by the last sentence.
They will just declare the black population as "mostly vaccinated" and it will be racist if they are required to prove otherwise.
I'm not sure how they prove anything since black people don't have ID./sarc
I don’t think so
Well, it's racist if minority citizens have to show ID to vote, so it follows that it's racist if minority citizens have to show proof of vax. I'm just going by the program.
Even better - they will claim that the reason blacks aren't getting vaccinated is because of white supremacy and whites preventing blacks from getting vaccinated lol
They will never acknowledge the fact that many populations including blacks, hispanics are very skeptical of the medical community due to past experiences.
Aba & Preach did a very good take down video of Philip DeFranco on this topic:
https://youtu.be/k6yHSIqsT9g
Easy, they pretend the majority of unvaccinated are conservatives and Trumpers.
The left has a problem in that they simply ignore the minority communities until they can weaponize them, just like they do with violence. Minority on minority violence = no story for liberal media. White guy kills one minority (George Zimmerman is a great example) its the biggest news story for 2 years.
Saw a study the other day that showed the vast majority of people with a PHD are not taking the Vaccine.
That's so interesting. Can you attach the link?
Use your favorite search engine and check it out. I did.
I will make an exception for you https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/americans-with-phds-are-most-reluctant-to-get-vaccinated-against-covid/ar-AANjRHh
Although you say you "saw" the study, you didn't read it carefully, and maybe you didn't see the actual study at all. You are wrong in saying the study claims "the vast majority of people with a PHD are not taking the vaccine". Instead, it said that 77% of people who say they have a PhD either have taken the vaccine or at least probably would take the vaccine if one was offered to them today. The remaining 23% of people who say they have a PhD have not taken the vaccine and either probably or definitely wouldn't take a vaccine if one was offered to them today. So, the vast majority of people with a PhD ARE willing to take the vaccine according to the study. But the study claims that PhDs are more likely than other education groups to be unwilling to take the vaccine, which is what came up in the headline of the MSN article. I see some reason to doubt the study's claims on that.
There are several flaws in the study. It's not peer-reviewed. Their sampling method isn't that great ("soft ask and low response rate"), and was limited to Facebook users. PhD holders who use Facebook and complete a survey there are probably less likely to take the vaccine than PhD holders in general. Perhaps the most important flaw is that there are reasons to doubt that respondents who claim to have a PhD really have one.
The study's authors note that they don't know if the survey was completed in good faith. And in fact they are pretty sure that some respondents who claimed to have doctorates do not. They say "those who selected self-described gender had a high frequency of uncommon responses [28.1% claimed to have a doctorate] suggesting the survey was not completed in good faith." The study's authors also note that their sample shows a higher percentage of people with PhDs than would be found in the general population of US adults. So it is likely that some respondents who don't want to take the vaccine are also falsely claiming to have PhDs, inflating the numbers. The authors say "Further investigation into hesitancy among those with a PhD is warranted."

As of today, they don't seem to care. The COVID religion trumps everything, always, at all times. GG's number for the United States - people under 18, is true. None of it matters.
For some extra fun, ask them why they insist the same people who can't be expected to carry a voter ID, are now expected to carry a vaccine passport.
OMFG what a gem.
Demand identification proving they are the person on the vaccine card.
Situation Update, Aug 30th, 2021 - US hospitals have become MURDER FACTORIES

Stay away from hospitals. Like roach motels, you check in but you don’t check out. The cure is worse than the disease.
Being a good patient requires informed cooperation with the staff, not just passive submission to whatever they want to do to you. If you're unconscious, hope for the best. If you're conscious, everything they do to you is up to you. Ignorance is not bliss. You get one body, with no warranty. Learn to take care of it.
Excellent advice. If a Doctor loses a patient, he always has more.
And he gets paid either way.
This isn't new with covid. Medical malfeasance has been a major cause of death for a long time. Covid has accelerated it, amped up by corrupt covernments pushing vaccines and patent medicines to incite fear and submission. But it is enabled by the propaganda media who studiously ignore the damage and support the government spin. We knew we couldn't trust government or media, but we're in big trouble if we can no longer trust doctors.
60% of Those Older Than 50 Who Die From COVID Are Double Vaxxed
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola
As of August 15, 2021, 68% of COVID patients admitted to hospital in the U.K. who were over the age of 50 had received one or two doses of COVID injections. By mid-August, 59% of serious cases in Israel were also among those who had received two COVID injections, mirroring U.K. data
Only in the 50 and younger category were a majority, 74%, of British COVID patients unvaccinated. Those claiming we’re in a pandemic of the unvaccinated fail to differentiate between age groups
The same applies to COVID deaths in the U.K. Unvaccinated make up the majority of deaths only in the under-50 age group. In the over-50 group, the clear majority, 70%, are either partially or fully “vaccinated”
We cannot rely on U.S. data to get a clear idea of how the COVID shots are working, as the CDC has chosen to only track breakthrough cases that result in hospitalization and/or death
Reanalysis of Pfizer’s, Moderna’s and Janssen’s COVID trial data using the proper endpoint show the shots are hurting the health of the population, and if mass vaccination continues we face “a looming vaccine-induced public health catastrophe”

CDC didn’t want you to see this data…
Posted by Kane on August 5, 2021 2:37 am
Internal CDC Documents
A graph, originally created by the New York Times, shows internal CDC documents acquired from the Washington Post of how infectious and lethal the delta variant is in comparison to other diseases.
You can find the graphs by clicking here:
https://context-cdn.washingtonpost.com/notes/prod/default/documents/8a726408-07bd-46bd-a945-3af0ae2f3c37/note/57c98604-3b54-44f0-8b44-b148d8f75165.#page=1
Chairman Jeffery McKay with Fairfax County says he’s expecting an announcement in the near future regarding a mask mandate. “We in Fairfax County will follow, as we always have, CDC guidance and any direction from the governor,” said McKay. “And I would suspect that in the days and weeks ahead there may be more announcements about that.”
The CDC internal document data also shows the delta variant may be infectious for longer about 18 days compared to ancestral strains at 13 days, meaning quarantine periods could be longer.

"but we're in big trouble if we can no longer trust doctors."--Mr. Watson
It depends on the doctors. There are doctors like Judy Mikovich, Doctror Mercola. or Dr. David Martin. Then there are the "insuranse doctors" like Kaiser Perm and other factory scale hospital businesses, who are as brainwashed as the prostitute "news people" on mainstream media...essentially zombie drones.
Just this morning I read a disinfo propaganda piece in Forbes denying that the Pfizer 'vaccine' contains Graphine Oxide,
However here is a study speaking to the 'Benefits' of nano partical (solgels) for such drugs:
Nanomedicine: A Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach to COVID-19
"Nanoparticles can enhance drug-based therapies by optimizing uptake, stability, target cell-specific delivery, and magnetic properties. In fact, recent studies have highlighted the potential of nanoparticles in different aspects of the fight against SARS-CoV-2, such as enhancing biosensors and diagnostic tests, drug therapies, designing new delivery mechanisms, and optimizing vaccines. This article summarizes the ongoing research on diagnostic strategies, treatments, and vaccines for COVID-19, while emphasizing the potential of nanoparticle-based pharmaceuticals and vaccines."
--June 2021 study
https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmed.2021.648005/full
Graphene Oxide is one such nanoparticle that many scientific researchers have discovered in the mRNA solutuon called "vaccines".
It is a bloody madhouse of contradictions in the literature!
Some on this forum may hoop and hollar making fun of the title of this piece on my blog, but the title is an accurate description of the situation. And the information from dozens of sources depicts a horrific picture of what is happening:

As we know from history, the left always eats its own. If you are a good comrade they eat you last.
" If you were told for the last 2 years that the USA was a systemically racist, unconscionably corporate, bigoted hellhole since 1619, then told to get a Gov't and Big Pharma vaccine because, well, THIS time those selfsame institutions are suddenly looking out for your best interests - you'd be leery of the vaccine too."
This line fantastically sums up the heavy bullshit the left has been serving in my lifetime. The same left that told us for decades "the man" was not to be trusted are now putting on their government jackboots because their party is in power. Its fucking horrific.

That isn't the Left; it's Democrats. I know a lot of lefties who are HIGHLY
It’s the left
(ACCIDENTAL POST)...SCEPTICAL of the vaccines, and other elements of the Covid response, such as it is.
Look up RFK Jr. and "Children's Health Defender;" lefty environmentalists.
In early 2020 I began writing about doubts. By mid-February I was buried in criticism for spreading misinformation by writing that every other corona virus was spread human to human, we should assume COVID19 was as well; that social distancing of two meters was based on 19th century research on bacteria, missing the fact that viruses were much smaller and lighter than bacteria, making the real distance eight meters. This continued for two years. I've been repeatedly banned.
The international picture is far worse than ours. Shutting down our food production, spreading panic world-wide, will have far more serious conseque4nes. There are few seaports that service Africa,, and as many as five or more borders must be transited before reaching some countries. The same applies to Central Asia. Mass starvation and food insecurity lasting generations will follow.
We are now divided between good vaccinated and bad unvaccinated people. One-size-fits-a;ll medicine is stupid. Good treatments are labeled dangerous misinformation and can't be used. Practicing physicians are ignored, while medical bureaucrats rule. This is insanty
It’s amazing how questioning is now “misinformation”. As though skepticism were something other than the bedrock of the scientific method
They always go after the truth tellers.
I only wrote what I had learned in medical school in Germany in the 1980s, and from my brief work as a psychiatrist there before family needs caused me to return to the US. I then left medicine permanently and followed other careers. I did follow a few journals and read perhaps five or six peer-reviewed articles per month. We knew everything we needed to know to prevent a pandemic: protect the elderly and obese, practice good sanitation and put patients outdoors where there is nearly a zero chance of infection.
Leave everybody else alone until we know more.
I like the way you think. My immediate family has a fair representation in the medical field. I mostly listen and learn.
Yup, yup and yup!
Greenwald's piece is welcome, but there is nothing "bizarre" about the way the governance structures are being globally reorganized, not when one looks at who and what institutions are involved in ushering in this new system of forced medical interventions, 360 degree biomedical surveillance, and other Orwellian wet dreams.
At this point, I wish people like Greenwald and Taibi would just go for the nuclear option and start reporting on Whitney Webb's work over at Unlimited Hangouts. The discrepancies, dissemination of contradictory information, and withholding of other vital information is not "bizarre" when we look at who is shaping these policies top down, and their intentions...

A “Leap” toward Humanity’s Destruction
https://unlimitedhangout.com/2021/06/investigative-reports/a-leap-toward-humanitys-destruction/
There is a recurring "transhumanist" ideology underlying all the radical overhauls in health policy, and the introduction of new technocratic forms of governance where elected officials become essentially superfluous, subordinated to the decrees of the scientific clergy, otherwise known as the "expert" class.
These new and weird technocratic forms of governance are being used to make "human engineering" and "transhumanist" policies the norm. Anyone who has a sense of the history of things like "transhumanism" (a word coined by the former director of the British Eugenics Society, Julian Huxley) can quickly recognize that transhumanism is simply a re-branding of the same old eugenics programs. The only difference is now, thanks to things like the "Human Genome Project," the "human engineering" enthusiasts believe they have all the data and statistical models needed to prove their ideas and make "the unthinkable once again thinkable."

Today, people over at the World Economic Forum call it the "Fourth Industrial Revolution." It is a world in which as one of the WEF's high priests Yuval Hariri says, humans will no longer be struggling for survival, but "relevance," since machines are supposedly going to create a new "global useless class." Thus, so the thinking of the WEF's priesthood goes, we will need to find new ways of making ourselves relevant and enhance our capacities, including "merging with machines" and adopting "human engineering" to make ourselves more "efficient."

I could only get through a few articles before too many "It's the Jews" references made me turn away.
Can you tell us which article had the "It's the Jews" nonsense in it?
Be specific dear, point to the exact comments you refer to here.
\\][//
"dear": a condescending word used by some males in giving directives to women when first meeting them.
Piss off Rose.
\\][//
Oh another 14 year old comment from Willie Boy!
Yes. And Honey is used that way also.
Yes you are correct. It is "patriarchal speak" and will infuriate any real feminist man or woman.
It's up above, boy.
I see Jennifer, so you didn't mean, "It's the Jews". You meant 'It's the Israelis.
That is a different kettle of fish, because the Jewish people in general do not have intelligence operatives, and state agendas in the same way that the Israeli state does.
The same confusion came about when certain researchers claimed and Israeli connetion in the 9/11 attacks. The researchers were accused of anti-Semitism.
I submit to you that it is not anti-Semitism to criticise the Israeli state. Even if Israel is a theocracy as some would charge, there is still the fact that the majority of the worlds Jewish population lives outside of Isreal.
BTW I do not think that Isreal was involve in the attacks on 9/11. but it is clear that they did have intelligence on the matter.
\\][//
Just edit your lingo and use Zionists and Diaspora Jews.
Hasn’t the media also been calling California gubernatorial candidate the “black face of white supremacy” ie throw everything at the guy because the establishment is genuinely scared?
You seem to be using the same kind of tactics.
Whitney Webb is one of the best and most honest journalists out there, shining a real bright light on the military, intelligence and surveillance state. And the other link was a podcast on eugenicist Julian Huxley and the history of Transhumanism, which everyone should know about since it’s the guiding philosophy for many Great Reset and surveillance state architects.
As William asked below, please show us all the “It’s the Jews” excerpts that everyone else missed.
You wouldn’t want people to think you’re just making it up to smear people.
Ok, well, in this article she blames Isreal for hacking the elections because some technology used in our elections comes from Isreal, and Isreal has done some bad things, so.. Jews interferring in our elections.
https://unlimitedhangout.com/2020/07/investigative-series/how-government-and-media-are-prepping-america-for-a-failed-2020-election-2/
"With intelligence agencies in the U.S. and Israel not only crafting the narrative about 2020 foreign meddling, but also dominating these technologies and simulating their use to upend the coming election, it becomes crucial to consider the motivations behind this narrative and if these intelligence agencies have ulterior motives in promoting and simulating such outcomes that would effectively end American democracy and hand almost total power to the national security state."
And then she's all over spyware Toka and Pegasus, which are awful but she claims without evidence that they are a front for the Isrealli state. Maybe, but again it's more speculation due to a former politician having invested in the company. Again, this spyware is concerning, but she's getting all lizard people in her insistance of some global jewish cabal running it all. Doesn't she know every country has this stuff?
https://www.mintpressnews.com/pegasus-just-tip-israel-unit-8200-toka-spyware-whitney-webb/278042/
She also accuses Isreal of genocide.
https://israelgenocide.com/tag/whitney-webb/
I'm not establishment and I'm not scared, but rabid anti-semitism in an unfortunate aspect of the far left, and in my opinion, despite some otherwise fine reporting, Whitney Webb has bit the bug. I'm not trying to cancel or smear her, simply stated that she lost credibility with me when I looked into some of her writings.
Just a few days ago James Lindsay at New Discourses had a strong post that vaccine passports are systemically racist in terms of Critical Race Theory. Negatively affect Blacks and are known to do so, intent does not matter. He opposed CRT and wants vax passport proponents called out for racism to make his point, but if you believe in CRT the point still stands
I dare any of these "woke" leftists to go watch videos of Black Panthers Bobby Seale and Huey Newton talking about how racist gun control is.
A Republican governor changed the gun laws for when Panthers began carrying guns. The NRA NEVER comes to the defense of black gun owners.
Right on. Means they are afraid of blacks who are armed. Not whites so much or yellows or reads or blues or greens!
It sure as shit does seem like everyone in power is scared of their opponent's constituents being armed.
With good reason methinks.
And yet those same gun lovers will act Ronnie Reagan farted perfume and pissed holy water, conveniently forgetting his own fascism because it didnt occur against them.
SMH
Fuck fuck fuck the NRA, I've said this since I first learned of them and their impotence.
If not for NRA we wouldn't have any right to self defense at all. They're not perfect but you don't really want nice guys defending you. Ruthlessness wins political fights just like it wins gun fights.
Guns are another accurate comparison for Glenn's zero risk challenge. Just as the timid fear every virus, even though they have the innate capability to kill every covid germ they meet, so to do the timid fear every gun, even though it could save their life in the off chance they encounter violence. The dying thought of everyone shot by a criminal is probably "I shuda been armed..."
Successful people learn to use the tools available to them, including medicine, and transportation, and defense. Sometimes it works to let others handle it for them. Often that doesn't work.
I roll with Gun Owners of America, they are no compromise and make no deals. No big overhead like the NRA. The NRA is well intended just not my type of grass roots activists.
It's like picking a favorite player on a ball team. It's the team that gets the win. In this game, NRA gets the publicity, the MVP, so has most of the influence. Other players make a lot of contributions. Some of the more aggressive actions are happening in really tyrannical states like Cal and NY. Both have very active and effective state associations, deserving of support.
yup
"Both Republicans and Democrats in California supported increased gun control, as did the National Rifle Association of America. Governor Ronald Reagan, who was coincidentally present on the capitol lawn when the protesters arrived, later commented that he saw "no reason why on the street today a citizen should be carrying loaded weapons" and that guns were a "ridiculous way to solve problems that have to be solved among people of good will." In a later press conference, Reagan added that the Mulford Act "would work no hardship on the honest citizen."
I remember when The Mulford Act was signed into law. My father laughed until he cried, then he cried some more.
The irony being today's 'progressives' (who ostensibly support the Black Panthers being that they are minorities) have no desire to repeal a conservative, Republican-constructed and Reagan-signed bill that targeted those very same Panthers.
Keeping whitebread oppressive laws from the 1960's that were designed to keep minorities from being armed is totally OK in the progressive Mecca known as CA.
This has nothing to do with race except to people to whom everything has to do with race. The government oppression were all suffering doesn't discriminate by race, age, sex or anything but power. The rulers and their cronies have one set of rules, and they use other rules to keep the rest of us docile and submissive. Those who try to insert extraneous issues are missing the point.
Except race is used to divide and conquer
Yes. Race is CONTENT and McLuhan has carefully instructed us to know that content is irrelevant. The MEDIUM is the MESSAGE. Now it is important to carefully discriminate those categories and to KNOW what the MESSAGE is. Think Trump. His administration was the MEDIUM. What was its MESSAGE? That is the question to ask and answer yet everyone continues to argue about CONTENT which is irrelevant.
"CONTENT which is irrelevant."--Janet Abbot
You have a catch 22 deary. Your content that you just posted is irrelevant.

I have only "done it" with women my whole life.
Are you a "switch hitter" Randy?
Eww caca!!
\\][//
A lot of people prattle about race without saying why. Seems their only message is signaling their own perception of virtue. But what do race obsessives actually want, or do? Apparently just complaining about others is sufficient for them. Content is all that matters for most people, but for some it's sufficient just to prattle.
Trumps messages were clear to about half the country. Probably clear to the other half, too, they just didn't like it. Anybody doesn't understand the messages should ask. Communication is always a two way process. Many messages are sent, but just not received.
The victim card is a big part of the race narrative, the question is who gets to play it, and how effective it is?
The sad part is we've trained a couple generations to view themselves ax victims. That's a defeatist attitude that only works on other losers. We used to be more self confident. Maybe we will be again
I agree. Sometime I hope all of this is a bad dream that we all wake up from one day and it’s gone. Maybe a trend that just goes away. Another part of me says it is the new normal and here to stay.
Not likely in a civilization, an empire in the stage of disintegration.

Funny how things change in a short decade: from DOJ investigating Pfizer, to DOJ soon being their enforcer: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-announces-largest-health-care-fraud-settlement-its-history
Women "attempt" suicide at higher rates because they aren't really trying to kill themselves; it's a cry for help. Men and boys actually commit much higher rates of suicide from mid teens to elderly because we don't allow men to cry for help.
I believe someone like Glenn (with his vision, absolute intelligence and fantastic writing skills) would be needed to investigate the undeniable truth: N.Y. City and State absolutely, no question asked deserve what they have. Winston Churchill said "Every country has a government it deserves." Cannot be more true to N.Y. City and State. It would be great if Glenn wrote an analysis how a society like N.Y. is able to vote the two absolute worst governor and mayor into power; multiple times. All I can tell New Yorkers: "Enjoy them"
Exactly to my point above, none of this is being discussed. It’s disgusting! Well said
Certainly betrays disingenuous thinking
WHERE THE HELL is the DEBATE over MANDATED VACCINES?!?!? Look at deBladio’s NYC wide mandate, now in Los Angeles and I’m sure it will be a domino effect, soon to arrive at your Blue State City. It’s is OUTRAGEOUS that ppl would be fired from their job for not taking the “SHOT” or denied a continued membership at their health facility, or access to restaurants, public events etc. WHY should ppl who ALREADY had Covid & have antibodies be mandated to take this shot?? WHY is no one discussing those who have compromised immune problems and were advised by their DOCTORS NOT TO TAKE THE SHOT not factored in?! WHY, now that we KNOW, the vaccinated are also still TRANSMITTING Covid and can get Covid again, aren’t we allowed to do the cost benefit analysis and decide for OURSELVES whether or not we want to reduce our own personal chance of “severe symptoms/hospitalization?!” VS the UNKNOWN LONGTERM health implications of this “shot” that has YUUUGE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST among those individuals and agencies which are behind its development ?! WHY hasn’t there been a VERY public debate regarding safe, effective, credible and known TREATMENTS?! WHY Aren’t we hearing anything about the actual debate that is occurring among world renowned neurologists and vaccine developers formerly with Pfizer and Merck and Gates foundation (Geert Vanden Bossche) and countless others about the risks of a mass vaccination rollout during a pandemic and the likelihood of breakout cases and the CREATION of more and more variants? WHY in the hell hasn’t that debate been occurring and why hasn’t it been covered main stream outlets? I am grateful for 20 Greenwald four this article regarding rational cost benefit analysis of policies regarding Covid. But, the giant elephant in the room is mandated vaccines, which is why you’re seeing millions and millions of people around the globe protesting yes. Where are the large protests here in the United States? Don’t people realize this it’s a scary slippery slope leading to authoritarian control? Have they forgotten Michael Chertoff and his airport scanners after 911 saying “they could milk those surveillance capabilities & policies” for years?? What the hell is wrong with people? They have succumbed to the fear mongering and lost all rational objective thought.
What I don't understand is this -- isn't demanding proof of vaccination a violation of HIPPA rights? The right to privacy concerning our health history?
It is. I am 100% certain of this as I had to undertake monthly DOJ compliance trainings in regards to HIPAA.
Obviously it depends on the context. HIPAA rules don't apply to every employer. https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/covered-entities/index.html
Employers are not immune to lawsuits when negative results happen from the vacs the way the govt and Pfizer are exempt. Armstrong is financially supporting anyone who takes this to court.
Why dont you enlighten us as to when you think HIPAA rules dont apply, with the link you cited?
Yes, sir. You are an individual, and not a health care provider or one of the other covered entities listed in that link. As an individual being asked/required to show proof of vaccination, you cannot violate your own HIPAA rights (because you, as an individual, are not covered under HIPAA). An example of a HIPAA violation would be your health care provider providing that information to your employer without your consent.
That is not an employer but you are correct in that case.
The main thing with HIPAA is that it applies to an employer’s request for health information from a covered entity.
So if you refuse to say whether you are vaccinated, and your employer requested that information from your insurance, it would be a violation.
So, if my healthcare provider told a survey company that I take X drug and the survey company offered me $100 to take a drug survey, is that a violation?
Demanding proof of vaccination is unconstitutional under the Forth, Fifth and Ninth Amendments.
\\][//
What does the *Forth* amendment say? Fifth protects you in criminal cases. You can refuse, but not by citing the *Fifth.* The fourth pertains to governments, not businesses. The Supreme Court ruled in 1905 (Jacobson v. Massachusetts) that health departments had the right to require the smallpox vaccination and to require proof of vaccination. The ninth? Who knows.
The Forth Amendment:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things
>>Supreme Court rulings are like a yoyo, up and down loop't'loop. The PEOPLE dicide what the Constitution means by acceptance of draconian laws or dissent against such laws<<
The Fifth Amendment
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
>>This amendment applies because one need not reveal ones status one way or the other to authiorities on any subject.<<
The Ninth Amendment:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
>>It is obvious that the Ninth covers all instances that the citizen sees as his.hers inherent right.<<
What is at stake when accepting an injection of these unknown solutions?
The evidence is clear that the mainstream is lying about the after effects of these injections even in the short term. And many virologists have been warning that the long term effects are likely devistating.
Inform yourselves. do not walk blindly into the abyss.

It's always interesting that constitutional questions decided in the courts are always split decisions. Rights, and truth, are never absolute, but subjected to the whims of the majority. Wins come from winning the majority.
Rights, and truth, are ALWAYS absolute. Truth is not decided by a vote. Truth is decided by the facts that prove it.

You should see his opinions about physics. Or not...
I will eventually. Or not. : D
He's busy linking Newton's laws to the Constitution. Basically proving something important. The atlas shrugged will be no more.
You know Watson, you are starting to stand in for Randy Rose as a total prick who has to stalk my every comment and make some derogatory remark.
And like Rose, your slanderous comments are always based in your own ignorance.
\\][//
"stalk my every comment" - it was not your comment, dimwit.
You shouldn't have any problem rebutting them, then. All we hear is emotional rants. Just trying to help.
They are not MY ideas about physics Watson. They are Sir Isaac Newton's ideas on physics.

Maybe you should start directing your comments Holmes way instead, Witless.
Yes. Go listen to the Canadian lawyer on this for Canada Law.
No. It is worth noting that HIPAA only applies to HIPAA-covered entities, business associates of HIPAA-covered entities, and subcontractors of business associates. There are no restrictions on disclosures of information about the 2019 Novel Coronavirus and COVID-19 by other entities; however, while HIPAA may not apply, other federal and state laws may do.
The answer to all of JT's questions is "fear." The country is driven by hysteria, incited by corrupt media, orchestrated by tyrants, enabled by ignorance.
Social media has greatly undermined our ability in public discourse to conduct careful analysis based on reason and replaced it mainly with triggered emotionalism. The Histrionic States of America.
