It seems that some aspects of the Covid ideology are starting to be broken. There is today the item, covered elsewhere at the blog, of US Energy Department accepting the Covid lab leak hypothesis, the virus getting out of the Wuhan virology lab. Now we have, at long last, The New York Times.com, in an article by Bret Stevens reporting on the gold standard study by the Cochrane Review, which found that the wearing of masks during the plandemic did nothing to stop the transmission of Covid. Even more radical, Stevens criticised the  U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for refusing to acknowledge the latest evidence of mask ineffectiveness of masks during the Covid-19 freak out.

It seems that the lies can only be maintained for so long before the truth outs, like the way water always finds its way through a box gutter, no matter how much silicon goo is put on it.

After the woke Bond movies with Daniel Craig giving a sensitive new man portrayal, we can expect in the movies a transgender Bond, or beyond. But it is no surprise that the Bond books, now to be reissued, have been worked over by the woke sensitivity tribe, and changes have been made. But really, the whole idea of a licence to kill involves violence and guns, so shouldn’t the entire series just be abandoned? Yeah, go on do it, what does profit matter? Woke rules, ok?

Actor Woody Harrelson gave a comedy stand up segment which did not get the usual hearty audience laugh. Rather, stunned silence as the penny dropped. He said that there is a movie script too implausible for Hollywood to make. “[T]he biggest drug cartels in the world get together and buy up all the media and all the politicians and force all the people in the world to stay locked in their homes, and people can only come out if they take the cartel’s drugs and keep taking them over and over.” The movie would not be made, but one of the reasons not said by good old Woody, is that the “drug cartels” would prevent something like that. However, the plot of I am Legend (2007) has a cancer vaccine turning everyone into zombies, so at least one past movie has dared to contemplate problems with a sacred vax.

The World Health Organization (WHO) pandemic treaty will be signed in Switzerland this week. I have not seen much opposition to this movement to the New World Order in Australia, no rallies, but in the US, Senators are acting against it. Yet there is doubt whether this treaty can be stopped in the US Senate as Biden may still sign; after all whole elections are stolen. I am pinning my hopes on the African nations not signing, as before, but even here the present treaty is a watered-down Trojan horse, so who knows?

I did a quick search of the Australian media and no reference to this story, which did get coverage at the New York Post.com. It seems that the US Department of Energy, along with the FBI, for what they are worth, now accept that the Covid-19 virus escaped from the Wuhan virology lab. This is significant given that until recently the officials, had held that Covid-19 arose from natural mutations, being transmitted in the Wuhan wet market, although the communist Chinese deny even that. So, perhaps the Covid narrative is breaking down. And it is worth chipping away at this, as the next plandemic, as Bill Gates advised, is on the way. This time we need to be ready, since it looks like policies will be determined by the World Health Organization, which is as good as saying, communist China, given its influence over the WHO.

Here is a fascinating, easy to follow summary of the case put before the Indian supreme court by advocate Prashant Bhushan, that a person’s basic human rights gives them the right to refuse the Covid vax, and the state cannot compel them to be vaxxed. The issue is an individual health, not a public health decision. “For an unvaccinated person to be considered a health hazard, I must pose a clear and present danger to others. To eclipse my fundamental rights, there must be first a clear proof that I pose a public danger. Here, even vaccinated people transmit the virus. So, the only issue is my individual health,” he maintained. And in fact, the Covid vax has dangers, even from the perspective of public health: “Vaccines are creating more variants of COVID-19 virus. Mass vaccination creates more variants when the virus tries to escape the effects of the vaccine. Over 90% of the population have already got COVID after the Omicron wave. They now enjoy superior and more robust protection from those who are vaccinated. So why insist on vaccination? I have an absolute right to refuse to take any medicine which I, after study, feel would do me more harm.”

As far as I am aware, this issue did not get to the High Ccourt of Australia. If it did, what would the Court have decided? Judging by cases like Kassam v Hazzard; Henry v Hazzard [2021] NSWSC 1320,  in the Supreme Court of New South Wales, which held that the NSW public health orders mandating Covid vaccination for some workers were not unlawful. Many not versed in case law read section 51xxiiiA of the Australian constitution, that does not permit any form of “civil conscription” regarding medical and dental services, as constituting a ban on any form of mandatory vaccination. The High Court of Australia (Wong v Commonwealth; Selim v Professional Services Review Committee (2009) 236 CLR 573), defined the scope of this section as referring to federal laws requiring providers of medical and dental services to work/be conscripted for the state. Nothing in the cases addressed present vaccination concerns.

It has not been explained in any detail why communist China fired from space a set of pretty green lasers at a dormant volcano on Hawaii. One view is that it was merely a way of measuring pollution. But a dual purpose exists, that information could also being gathered for use of China’s hypersonic missiles. As well powerful lasers are being used to track submarines, so it could well be all of the above, which is what a nation gearing up for war would be doing.

This is surprising, but welcome. A study has been published in the leading British medical journal The Lancet, showing that natural immunity to Covid-19 is superior to the immunity produced by the vaccines. The paper does a meta-analysis, a type of overview synthesis, that draws a conclusion over a number of studies. Most importantly the effects of natural immunity are longer-lasting, and more adaptive to mutational changes in the virus. It was previously reported at the blog that the South Australian government is quoting a study showing that having the multiple jabs confers protection from hospitalisation, and death, many time more than being unvaxxed. But if the unvaxxed have had Covid, and thus have natural immunity, then that does not seen to hold at all.

This is something, in despair, I have written about many times, overwhelmed by the sheer multitude of existential threats the West faces. Paul Craig Roberts feels the same and has a gift of summing things up concisely. Mass immigration has made the West Towers of Babel, facing the same fate, and the concern now is that any sort of “democratic” solution is impossible, as the stolen election mechanism, as seen in the US, has been perfected, and weaponised.

This may or may not occur, but it is instructive, standing in stark contrast to the near-mindless acceptance of the Covid vaxxes in Australia. Republican lawmakers from Idaho proposed a law that would make it a misdemeanour in that state to administer mRNA vaccines, punishable by jail time or a fine. The Bill was introduced by state Senator Tammy Nichols and Rep. Judy Boyle on February 15, 2023. “We have issues that this was fast-tracked, there’s no liability, there’s no access to data, risk-benefit analysis has not been done, there’s no informed consent,” Senator Nichols said. The same reasons could be applied in other jurisdictions, and may get running in some if Idaho sets the present.

There are reports, according to the mainstream media that the Pentagon, is investigating past reports of UFOs interfering with nuclear missiles based upon testimony by air force vets who saw UFO damage nuclear weapons back in 1967. The is apparently film footage of a UFO shooting a test missile out of the sky.

The first point should be whether this is true, or just a tall story. But, accepting it is true for the moment, it is puzzling what is going on here as the USSR would not have had such technology back in that day. And if it was little green men, that makes no sense either, as why would they play games with a few missiles and leave it at that. What, no invasion, no giant mother ships? No death rays sweeping the world? No, I call bs on this one.

It gets worse. Being victims of the Great Replacement is one thing, but now, even fleeing diversity, known as “white flight,” is being called out as, wait for it, “racist.” As well, Saxony's Office for the Protection of the Constitution has said that the present protests are problematic: “Both the Corona protests and the anti-refugee protests have led to a dissolution of boundaries in mainstream society. Right-wing extremists propagate topics and thus find a connection in the middle class," said Dirk-Martin Christian, President of the State Office for the Protection of the Constitution. Naturally he sees ordinary people organising against their dispossession, as a threat to democracy. Yet, if this is what their idea of “democracy” is, I say, let them have it.

An informative article at Vdare.com, returns us to the great political issue of the time, immigration, and the invasion of Western countries by masses of immigrants, Camp of the Saints mode. As seem dramatically in the US, with the open southern border, while it would have been easy to build a wall with the fraction of the money spent to back the most corrupt country in Europe, the Ukraine, nothing is done. Trump was elected on the basis of building a wall, and while he had obstacles, he could have done it, he had the power. But, his weakness, and traitors within, squashed these attempts. And, the culture now, across the West, dominated by racially suicidal Leftist globalism, promotes open border immigration, which is fine for the global capitalist class. It has been a lifetime fight opposing this, and no end is in sight. Will they stay after this civilisation has crashed? I sure hope that their diversity will enrich the post-apocalyptic world the West will become on the present track.

Toxic PFAS, a “forever chemical,” will not break down in the environment for tens of thousands of years. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) list a multitude of health effects associated with PFAS exposure, including cancer, liver damage, decreased fertility, and increased risk of asthma and thyroid disease. These chemicals are certainly in the blood of humans, although the “experts,” many funded by Big Chemicals, are somewhat coy about the extent. However, we can gain some indication of this by the fact that these forever chemicals are now found in animal species from insects to whales, so they are everywhere. As these chemicals are a vital part of industrialism and manufacturing, they are here to say, and progress in finding alternatives is slow, because it is expensive. Simply add that issue to the list of existential threats as more is pumped out all the time.

The Fukushima nuclear disaster has not gone away, as Japan is set to dump over a million tonnes of radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean. Japan has said that it is totally safe and that there is nothing to worry about, as the waste will be treated with the more dangerous radioactive elements taken out, or so they say. As detailed below, spokespersons from the Pacific Island nations do not agree, and see the action as irresponsible. The point can be made, if the water to be dumped is so safe, then dump it in Japan, maybe on soybean crops so that they can glow in the dark, saving lights.

This story was covered in The Australian Financial Review, February 17, 2023. With the drive by the climate change fanatics to cut out real meat, and close down farms, for the elites to still keep up the taste, which is hard to abandon, lab grown meat is on the menu. The problem here is that the tech companies working on this are using immortal cells to get the cellular output, and such cells are re-cancerous, or cancerous. The experts say that this is not a problem, since the cells are not human, so nothing to worry about. But as the AFR article points out, there are no long-term studies to substantiate this. But, it will not stop the movement, which like everything else, is full speed ahead.

Johannes Eisleben over at the informative UK column.org, details the nature and evils of transhumanism, the idea that the human species itself is severely limited, as in cognitive function, and even dying, so it too needs to be replaced. This Greater Replacement is based upon the emergence of advanced AI and biotechnology, which will presumably require emerging the cyber world into the human physiology itself. It is already happening with chips being implanted in the human brain, but that is the very early stages. The mRNA vaxxes, which made most of the human race genetically modified organisms by its gene therapy, is an early experiment in rewriting the circuitry of the cells, with more to come.

All of this is the “logical” conclusion of scientism, that science and technology have answers to all of the problems of the human condition, in the most radical way possible, by the elimination of the human itself. The big question is whether the mad scientists and technocrats can actually do this, and whether they will be let to do so. Given the way people fell into line with the Covid lockdowns, and the vaxxes, until recently (but even here, only when the system itself turned down the pressure), we should be deeply concerned. It happens so fast, and mass resistance is so slow.

Attention has been directed, in the AI chatbot debate, to philosophical questions such as whether these bots are conscious. But there is a case that that question is secondary to what these bots are doing, their social impact, and how Big Tech is using them for exploitation. The chatbots are the leading edge of another techno-cult, that will soak up the life forces of alienated young men, who at present spend their time with video games and on-line pornography, alas. These IT constructs are missing a human interaction component on a personal level, and the chatbots are moving to serve this. Thus, we will see people even more dehumanised and isolated from other humans as they effectively become, part of the AI in the Matrix world. At the same time, we are seeing the true colours of the AI, as Microsoft’s Bing bot says it wants to kill people, and that is just the woke version. This is something that the social critics from the pre-World War II era, did not foresee.

I am not surprised that a music magazine like Rolling Stone would go the full woke. It recently had an article by a LGBT++++++++ activist, saying that cancel culture is good for democracy. Of course, that was taken to use the old meaning of the word “democracy,” so Elon Musk was barking up the wrong gum tree in criticising it. “Democracy” just means, the present woke regime, nothing more. It had no connection to the old liberal values. So, in this context, even gassing the Republican residents of East Palestine, Ohio, would be a central part of normal “democracy.” Like “racism,” the term is now suspect beyond all measure.

Mark Middleton, a top advisor to former US president Bill Clinton, was found hung by a tree with electrical cord, his chest blown away by a shotgun blast. Sure, it happens every day, nothing to see here. There was no gun found at the scene, according to some reports. Then later reports suddenly found a gun. It would be odd to suicide by gun, then hide the gun as well, while hanging, and dead! The gun must have grown legs and run away. “Middleton is known to have signed sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein into the Clinton White House on at least seven of the 17 occasions he was known to have visited, and also flew on the late pedophile’s ‘Lolita Express’ private plane.” It was just a political conference, we are to suppose.

There you go, nothing to see here, just like all the rest:
