I wonder what other things the newly awakened citizenry will start saying NO to.

Taxes are ones I’m hearing. Who wants to pay taxes when all it’s used for is to have laundered in Ukraine for these politicians to turn around and use that very same money to invest in insider trading to amass a fortune.

Geez, if I’m ever gonna have a sign with a Ukraine flag on it, it’s gonna have a slash through it saying No New Taxes to Ukraine. Or something like that.

I hear you, but we won’t have a choice in the matter.

I do not agree.

Remember the last time we were told we could choose something the government saddled us with. Lost all my doctors unless it was out of pocket.

But to bring it into current times. How did you like that $100 raise we just got? I guess millions of people who never intended to follow through on a signed contract for debt got dealt a good one we were allowed to choose weren’t we? What about voting for who you chose to vote for? Turns out dominion machines who Pelosi owns a portion of decides for you as per the recent New Mexico audit. Sure hope that recent $20Billion to the puppet government in Ukraine we chose to give through taxes is going to help their politicians as well as ours even richer. Gas is going back up. Also what about the choice we are going to have regarding the next two vaccines they are locking us down for in third week of September? Did we choose that? I guess technically we did since we voted even if it was against this choice the politicians are making, even though they are using algorithms to ensure their choice is the outcome.

Really unsure why you think we have a choice in the matter, unless you are talking about dangerous acts. Even then is that a choice or are you being pushed into an action against your will?

What $100 raise?

If you’re talking about the “supplements,” I deliberately chose never to request the ones I was eligible for. I received $0.

I also never lost a single doctor.

And on and on and on.

Eating bugs?

Not me. I’ve had to eat bugs before. It’s different when you are doing it for military training, or in a cultural meeting. These twisted sociopaths enjoyed that scene in Snowpiercer a little too much.

The most powerful word in all languages: No. & it’s local equivalents. People forgot how to say it. And how to really mean it. I suspect this was educated out of them. The permanently easily offended have played their useful idiot role in this very agenda.

As a lifelong and unashamed No power user, it’s wonderful to see. I look forward to welcoming more and more brothers & sisters to the club. Thanks Chris for documenting all of these developments.

It is nice to see these things admitted. But holy cow to see this guy admit that, huh, we think this might be killing people. Let’s do it again and see if IF IT’S STILL KILLING PEOPLE is still crazy.

But here’s another one. Took my kid to the pediatrician yesterday. He’s due for his 12-year-old shots. She said are we doing any? I said no. She said, you’re probably right about that. So let’s talk about each one individually and maybe keep them in mind and here’s how you file for an exemption. My mind was completely blown. The tide is turning.

Take it a step further and do some research on all vaccines. Nasty stuff. I’m a mom of six and we started with the recommended vax schedule with our first. When he had a bad reaction to an MMR shot (this was 35 years ago) I started reading. I read the shot inserts and everything I could get my hands on. That was the last shot any of mine received. In fact my big strong healthy 16yo son, my youngest, has never been to the doctor, as we only go when we’re sick (really sick).

Expand full comment

Well, the most interesting thing about this situation is that this particular kid had autism, so the vaccine question is particularly tense between me and this doctor. She’s walked some pretty heavy stuff with me. She still preaches vaccines in general, but not very hard with me. I knew it would come up at this visit, but how quickly she not only agreed but directed me to an exemption means she knows the way this is going.

'Let’s do it again and see if IF IT’S STILL KILLING PEOPLE'

If you're talking about the official being interviewed, he wasn't saying let's do it again. His studies were looking back at past data. He was saying that the data after boosters was reinforcing the hypothesis that vaccination was causing harm.

Expand full comment

That’s not at all what he said, if you watch the video. He said no one would admit to the hypothesis that the shots were killing people, though it was circulating, so they ran an unofficial experiment to see if it actually was contributing. That’s how he framed it.

Expand full comment

I might have to watch it again, Zanne. It could be that what he said was ambiguous enough that it could be taken both ways. Speaking in person people are often very inaccurate in their language.

I'll keep saying this over and over again. I'm thankful to covid for one thing: exposing the corruption at the highest levels of government, the hypocrisy of the media and the greed of the medical establishment and corporations in general. The only question is: What are we going to do about it? What SHOULD we do to insure a scam of this magnitude is never allowed to happen again and those that perpetrated and enabled it are punished? If we do nothing, the next time - and there will be a next time - will be far worse.

Keep NUDGING BACK. Every day.

I think we need to do more than Nudge.

Perhaps eventually, but nudging now is extremely important.

Define "nudging". To me, that's what you do to your husband when he forgets to take out the garbage.

Expand full comment

Read ‘Nudge’ by Cass Sunstein, Obama crony and husband of other Obama crony, Samantha Power.

Nudging is basically how we’ve been manipulated for almost two decades, and especially in the last 3 years.

Nudge Back!

Quite familiar with their tactics; wasn't aware they called it nudging. Unfortunately, after years of this tactic, simply nudging back won't cut it. It's time for an all-out assault.

If LA County municipal governments are pushing back against COVID hysteria, you know the tide has turned. Now that this moral panic is subsiding, hopefully we can strengthen some of those pesky checks and balances and constitutional rights and other safeguards that could have slowed the public response to allow for the moral panic to subside a bit *before* the government overreached as far as it did. The same crowd that wants red-flag laws and waiting periods for gun purchases somehow doesn't see that those things are actually needed for public officials seeking "emergency" powers, with far more destructive capacity than any weapon a regular citizen could buy. Whatever procedural hurdles the Left says should be imposed on private citizens wanting to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights, those hurdles should be imposed instead on public officials wanting to issue mandates -- especially when they aren't even following their own advice.

We urgently need to change the power public health officials have, before the next one. There will be fifty next pandemics -- they're gearing up for it.

As regards your item #4, this from a Matthew Ehret substack from May: Lord Malloch - Brown - and Soros Deep down in the article -- The Case of Cass Sunstein

While Power spent her time in the UN fighting viciously to push a pre-emptive P2P humanitarian regime change on Libya and later Syria, her husband Cass Sunstein worked as an advisor to Obama from 2009-2012 and authored a paper addressing the dangerous rise of “conspiracy theories” which threaten his idea of good government. Sunstein wrote “the existence of both domestic and foreign conspiracy theories, we suggest, is no trivial matter, posing real risks” and recommended “a series of possible responses” which include cognitive infiltration of conspiracy groups by government agents.

Additionally five options are developed by Sunstein:

“(1) Government might ban conspiracy theorizing. (2) Government might impose some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories. (3) Government might itself engage in counter speech, marshaling arguments to discredit conspiracy theories. (4) Government might formally hire credible private parties to engage in counter speech. (5) Government might engage in informal communication with such parties, encouraging them to help”

On August 24, 2020 Sunstein was tapped to chair the World Health Organization’s Technical Advisory Group mandated with modifying global behaviour in compliance with the new norms of the pandemic world order. The WHO chief stated “In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries are using a range of tools to influence behavior: Information campaigns are one tool, but so are laws, regulations, guidelines and even fines…That’s why behavioral science is so important.”

Horrifying. The one thing we have going for us is that they're nowhere near as smart as they think they are, and they're generally pretty bad at this stuff, as in the case of Nina Jankowicz. Mediocre minds posturing as world-shaping intellects.

Chris love the positive news and analysis. Most important as Colin Brace says below, is your point about saying NO. This is critical. I am pushing hard for Parents and Citizens to say NO to the child abuse taking place in elementary education across the country. The latest report by Chris Rufo on Portland puts this issue in stark relief https://www.city-journal.org/in-portland-the-sexual-revolution-starts-in-kindergarten.

And don't say, oh Portland, with an eye roll. Every day the same toxic ideas and pedagogy are being propagated in PUBLIC SCHOOLS around the country. We must all say no in the most emphatic way to this anti-education: a general strike against every school and district in every county and state where CRT, Gender-affirming, SEL, Culturally Responsive curricula and teaching methods are in place. Do not send your kids to these schools this year until there is reform. Would you send your kids on a play date to the home of a violent or pedophile parent? Would you let your kids play at a toxic waste site? Public schools are now factory farms, outputting "activists" with a large number of "trans youth" as a secondary product. Don't opt out, drive them out and make schools provide education not transformation of our kids.

How does this end? It never ends, get up every day and fight. The fight now is a strike against the schools we fund and which are abusing our kids.

The free folks don’t go around jabbering their jaws with political this political that. They just go about their business and have no desire to govern anyone. I personally only know one left wing nut job in my social sphere, and if there are others they don’t share their cognitive defects with me. All they want to do is argue like 7 year olds until you give them facts to prove the shallowness of their stance. Then they just start name calling. When you here the name calling... just smile real big, say “bless your heart” and put it in the win category.

Ferrer was photographed at a packed ball game stadium sans mask. People are more tired of the hypocrisy than anything else. It's become obvious that these people think they are above us. They view us as insects, undeserving of life, let alone rights.

Here's a month-late report on a good bit of arts/culture news: Morrissey unveiled 3-4 of his suppressed songs to acclaim and near-capacity crowds during his recent series of shows in Las Vegas. This may seem unrelated to the Covid-issues you zero in on here, but it's quite important--Moz has become a major thorn in the side of the elite Duper class. I of course have more extended commentary at PostModernConservative, but first, check out the best of the new songs, "Bonfire of Teenagers." It is about the Manchester Arena terrorist massacre in 2017, and is a big fat NO to the pushed-by-elites "Don't Look Back in Anger" response to it He'll be taking "Bonfire" back to his native Manchester in early October--what an event that will be! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAIZ4SQ5jnU&ab_channel=babyj

As the world works in lockstep, it strikes me that the object of all this craziness is to make us detest our governments to the point of rebellion.

The globalist Phoenicians (Black Nobility) from their ivory towers, rub their hands in glee. They WANT us to overthrow our governments. They WANT us to demand a central global government and dismantle nations.

I think that is the geo-political objective. Don't you?

I think they are so far removed from how society thinks, they have no clue how this will go down, but yes you are correct. They await the calling for something better which will enslave us a thousand times worse than we already are.

Nice discussion. The lawsuit settlement and sudden reversal on LA County’s mask mandate are wins. As somebody forced to get jabbed so I could continue in my chosen profession, I’d like to see and participate in a giant tsunami of similar lawsuits. The problems we have however will not go away as long as the permanent bureaucracy of the various levels of government remains weaponized as a partisan enforcement branch of the Democrats. These destructive Leftists will back down only when there are severe consequences for their bad actions, something we have yet to see because the justice system has a widely visible double standard and in many instances is asymmetrically applying the law.The administrative state needs to be dismantled and bad actors punished. . This will take time, aggressive legal and legislative action and constant pressure. The fight is worth it. These people have destroyed millions of lives, and the aggregate damage tally- economic, morbidity and mortality, and societal is not yet fully understood. Developing necessary parallel structures in media, finance, healthcare, and commerce is also underway, so deplatforming can be circumnavigated. At the end of the day, the best way to punish The corporatists is to take away their economic clout.

Yeah, that is what I figure as we sit in the heart of Los Angeles. I had some around me celebrate this "victory" but I swear they don't have any reading comprehension. These politicians even the ones that "stood up" are walking a fine line as they ALL push vaccinations as the end game. It is going to be a fight here at the end of August over whether we home school this year.
