Politics and science, humor and hypocrisy. METANOODLE
No., I'm not an anti-vaxxer but since we're getting personal, I haven't tried anal either. Have you?Also,
I've had lots of vaccines but I'm not ready for this one. The approvals were rushed, it's still a genetic experiment, and adverse reacdtions include more deaths than it took to cancel past drug tests on people.
Although it's a big deal to political brokers in the US who wins Tuesday's spot as Governor of Virginia, at bottom not so much. Lots of the Washington DC crowd call VA home.and Republican and Democrat pols share an outlook that upstate voters do not.
The Virginia Governor’s race is akin to two lovers debating whether Mercedes or BMW will be their next SUV
Coal ash is suddenly looking good. Rare earths (95% coming from China these days) can be extracted from ash without using toxic inputs. There's abundant coal ash which could be de-toxified with the new process. C02 is considered a waste product too and would be consumed.
Using food-grade citric acid as the carrier and modified carbon dioxide,
"in less than a day, at 158 degrees Fahrenheit (70 degrees Celsius) and 1,100 pounds per square inch pressure (about 70 times ordinary atmospheric pressure), the method extracted 42% of rare-earth metals present in coal waste samples."
It's not just Apple/Amazon/Facebook/Twitter/Google/YouTube vs The U.S. government that struggle for the upper hand in consumer media or far more likely for an accomodation with lots of money involved. In China, Jack Ma and more are being ordered to defer to the CCP. Moscow wants "pliable domestic entities" like Yandex, VK and Sber to replace the outsize US versions. The EU has the world's strictest privacy law and big fines, especially for US consumer media. (Outline from this article at PJ Media).
Who owns BIG DATA? The media, the military, the political parties, the deep state that persists beyond elections, corporations that pay the bills, the public? Ownership is still fought over as BIG DATA explodes bigger daily. We see local news. The same news is happening all over the world.
The BC Government declared the Covid-19 State of Emergency ended 11:59 pm June 30th 2021.
You didn't hear about it, did you? Some of the mandates issued under the protection of the State of Emergency were extended, however.
Sharyl Atkisson is a gem. I re-watched her 2015 TED talk on astroturfing, the pervasive "grass-roots" fake news machine. It's found everywhere, in medical ads and surveys and fact-checks and facebook opinions. Don't be surprised how much is caught in the net! Three simple rules to tag most of the fakery and propaganda:
1. Is the language inflammatory and dismissive? (debunk, kook, conspiracy, nuts, paranoid, myth, crackpot)
2. Are the people and organisations being attached instead of the facts they raise?
3. Is the scepticism aimed at the people calling out wrongdoing instead of the wrongdoers?
Australian engineer, Dr. Phil Greer, has done us a service framing over a hundred current WHY questions about Covid-19 , addressing under-reported but secure medical findings and government overreach. My brain has been going numb from the overload of information and misinformation. This one writeup in bullet form seems to hit all the high points of concern.
This chart is from The Lancet showing excess cold events are far more dangerous than excess heat events over time. Oddly, this same publication now predicts millions of deaths from warming, overlooking its own information. Wattsupwiththat.com
This is the perfect moment to slip in one of my favorite poems, crafted with such skill by Robert Frost.
Hatred towards the people I admire seems ascendent today.
Narrative Shift: Some 30,000 Mesoamericans liberated Mexico with help from "technologically advanced allies from overseas"(Cortez with about 700 Spaniards). They "overthrew a bloody death cult (The Aztecs) that had "subjugated its neighbors and rounded up mass civilian prisoners for execution".
"First, mandates need to be issued by a government agency or an elected official.. Secondly, they will often need a reason to introduce the mandate"
The mandate becomes:
"The authority given to an elected group of people, such as a government, to perform an action or govern a country” and it is "legally enforceable."
"Mandates are often used to deal with emergency situations. They are known for being very fast to implement. This makes them the perfect way to address rapidly changing situations."
"There are a few conditions in which a mandate can be deemed invalid. These will be when:
They fall outside the government’s agency under the legislation. The law will state clearly what things the agencies can and can’t make laws about. For example, the health department can make decisions about a pandemic. But a terrorist attack will be outside of their purview.
The mandate can’t overrule any existing state or federal laws. These laws can also be changed by a legislature.
The mandate can’t override the Constitution. All laws and mandates will need to follow the rules established in the Constitution."
In British Columbia, the mask mandate and now the vaccine passport would have come under the agency of the Ministry of Health but the emergency situation undergirding the mandate has fomrally expired. BC cancelled the state of health emergency June 30th. Elements of the Canadian constitution are being overruled.
From over 3 billion metric tonnes of iron to 2400 tonnes of mercury. Glance the chart over and be better informed in seconds.
This is something new. We all know that mild disapproval, a little wrinkle of the nose is the politician's lot. This widespread intense dislike of Biden's presidency is something new. Rasmussen keeps a rolling 3-day poll of 1500, calling 500 people every day to chart these numbers. The folk who are really pleased with Joe Biden's presidency are withering away, their numbers eroding, subsiding without apparent let.

Looks to me like stealth rehabilitation of Ivermectin as a tool in treatment of early SARS-CoV-2 infections.
LA and Long Beach ports are backed up but they are actually handling record levels of throughput. Mauldin's newsletter has some key charts. Besides the policy issues messing with supply chains, there is an enormous factor called demand. The demand is also a policy issue:
"The government sent trillions of dollars of “hot money” directly to consumers and/or businesses. Restaurants, hotels, and airlines were generally off the market, vacations were crimped, so people bought “stuff.” Thus, those ships off the shores of California contain extra goods that both manufacturers and shippers hadn’t planned for."
From Mauldin's letter (free to subscribe) is this chart showing throughput way up and a second chart showing prices up sharply for goods as money is being spent on goods more than services. Goods fill containers.

The Atlanta Federal Reserve has trimmed its third quarter GDP forecast from 6.1% to 0.5% annualized rate in eight short weeks and looks like other bellwethers are following suit.
The UK government document for the week just ended shows that in absolute numbers almost six times more (Correction: 80+ aged )vaccinated people died from Covid-19 complications than unvaccinated did. Remember, these are people who were vaccinated so they'd be immune, or so we believed at first. That's a shocker. (No correction. Still a shocker.)
Less shocking are the rates per 100,000. The chart on page 15 shows that the vaccinated did much better than the unvaccinated and most of the vaccinated deaths occur within one month of the jab( Correction: within one month of testing positive, not shocking at all.) going up just a little by the end of the secondmonth (Page 16 chart). This matches reports elsewhere that the spike protein does most of its damage early on and gradually disappears from the system. (Correction: the chart doesn't address spike protein since it addresses the generic "tested positive" rather than "got the jab".)
The BBC says last week that 86% of the over 12 population is double or single vaccinated. Do a little math. 14% of the over 12 population is therefore unvaccinated. Total deaths linked to Covid-19 last week were 1521(for those (correction: 80 and over )who died within a month of testing positive for Covid-19). 14% of that gives 212 on the assumption that vaccinated and unvaccinated were equally likely to die. That's the result I get. The reported number in this chart is 198. This implies to me that the vaccinated are just as likely to die as the unvaccinated when they take ill. How does that fit with the two right hand columns that show rates per 100,000 are multiple times higher for the unvaccinated? You tell me. (Correcting to include all age cohorts I get 730 unvaccinated deaths and 2395 vaccinated or partially vaccinated deaths. Redoing the math, 23% of the deaths were in the unvaccinated group, a little higher than the 14% they represent.)
The good news if my math is wrong is that the protected people (who aren't really protected) are dying at less than one third the rate of the unvaccinated who also catch Covid-19. (Correction: I misinterpreted the chart). The bad news for the unvaccinated is that the risk of death if they catch Covid-19 in late middle age is quite a bit higher than the risk for the vaccinated, even though almost everyone in either group will survive. (Correction? I don't think so)
Vaccinated people have damaged tissue. That's vaccinated people, not only people who caught the Covid-19 flu.. A senior pathologist with a side specialty in immunology gave a talk in August using his own microscope slides. Dr Ryan Cole examines tissue from hospitalized people and dead people for a living. He finds multi-tissue inflammations in vaccinated people including lungs, heart membrane, liver and more. He's worried. I am too. Some of the spike protein enters the blood and circulates beyond the deltoid muscle despite intial claims. Wherever it landed in test animals, the spike itself induced the same secondary pathologies that the whole virus produced. The spike isn't causing Covid-19 but it's causing the same secondary troubles. Most people don't die of Covid-19 and most people don't die of secondary induced pathologies. These secondary diseases (watch for names ending in "itis") are inflammations responding to the foreign spike protein which circulates for about two weeks after the jab. Our white blood cells are busy attacking us at those sites of inflammation. These injection-induced auto-immune diseases will be killing some of us and weakening some more.
Doctor Cole has been a pathologist for 17 years and is in the news for "spreading misinformation", a charge which should be a badge of honor these days. Are organs from vaccinated people generally inflamed right after vaccination are are they not? That should be the question. Wherever blood circulates including lungs and brain you have some exposure to the introduced spike protein.
The spike triggers the body to build defences against Covid-19 but the spike itself is a disease-causing toxin. The injections are an experiment on the whole human race. In the case of damaged heart cells, these are replaced by scar tissue not new healthy heart cells. How can we vaccinate the lowest risk group of all, the children, with an experimental gene snippet that will leave some of them at risk for the rest of their life?
