Chris Knight, former Aussie now living in Florida as one of our two Alor.org US correspondents, would know more about Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk than me. But, relevant to my concerns is Kirk’s new book, The College Scam (2022). It seems to be a well-rounded critique of the worthlessness of almost all university degrees, outside of professions like medicine. Even here, woke has invaded medicine and STEM, so probably all is hopeless with the universities. It is particularly relevant to US students with the heavy-duty fee structure. For individuals, the student debt and the amount of bs that young people need to put up with is not worth the effort Kirk argues. I have been making the same case here in Australia for at least a decade, the time Kirk has been working on his book.

Good to see Pauline calling out the Welcome to Country acknowledgment. I always have puzzled about the hypocrisy of this chest-thumping over-moralisation. If these woke folk are so guilt-ridden about having this country, how about giving up all of their stuff to the Aborigines, and going back to Europe? They could do it as refugees, being extra cool and woke then. Go by boats to be authentic. Yes, do it! But, of course these hypocrites will not; the system is too cozy.

So, the Melbourne City Council, to be woke, intends to scrap Australia Day celebrations. This is to produce “unity, rather than division,” presumably because the Left hates Australia Day. Ok, now I do not particularly like the Council which chews up an enormous quantity of rates each year. How about the Council gets cancelled? We can tend to disposing of our own rubbish, and patching up roads as best we can. As for libraries, well, who cares? We can go to other councils. Official decisions could be handled by citizen’s organisations. It is worth a thought. Otherwise, just give the City of Melbourne back to the Aborigines, after all the buildings have been pulled down; you know recreate the past again. Traditional life styles once more. And, Aussies will still celebrate Australia Day anyway whatever the New Class say.

Professor Edward J. Steele, Australian molecular and cellular immunologist, geneticist and microbiologist, has said that Covid-19 vaccines will not work because the disease that they are addressing is a “common cold virus.” “I’ve got to stress: this is a common cold virus, 99.9% of people get rid of it … How can a jab in the arm vaccine possibly protect you against getting infected with Covid-19? … None of the vaccines put into the arms can possibly activate that immunity.  They don’t, they just can’t work just on first principles … They know that they know the vaccine can’t work.”  The PCR test cannot differentiate between the common cold and SARS-CoV-2, Steele believes, because there is nothing to differentiate between. Thus, there is no reason, on immunological grounds, why an experimental mRNA vaccine needed to be pumped into millions, if not billions of people. Apart from the now less than hidden NOW Great Reset agenda, of course.

Despite Green/ABC propaganda, recent Australian floods were not caused by coal, cattle or cars. Weather is driven by winds; solar energy powers the winds and draws moisture for them from the oceans. These eternal natural rain-making processes have been aided recently by two extra factors.

Firstly a big La Nina weather event in the Pacific Ocean has left warmer water closer to Australia.

Secondly, there is increased underwater volcanism in this region as evidenced by the volcanic eruptions near Vanuatu.

The former UK Chancellor Rishi Sunak has a good chance of becoming the next prime minister of Britain, which will be the first time a person of colour takes that office. Oh well, diversity and all that. But, will he do anything about immigration? Old Boris did not, having promised it, and Sunak has also promised to get immigration under control. Maybe he might, given that the race card will be a difficult one to play against him. I guess we will have to wait and see. Britain is sinking into the swamp, so at the end of the day, try anything!

Today at the blog some of us have been dealing with the issue of Covid being a pandemic of the vaccinated. So, why is this? One hypothesis has been offered by Dr. Harvey Risch, an epidemiology professor at the Yale School of Public Health. The spike proteins in the Pfizer and Moderna vaxxes are based upon the original SARS-CoV-2, but things have moved on in the viral world, with BA.4 and BA. 5 now dominating. And, here is the problem: “The problem with that is, of course, that when the spike protein changes because of new strains of the virus, that the ability of the immune system to make antibodies that correlate to the new strains becomes reduced to the point where it may be almost ineffective over longer periods of time. “What that means is they become interfering antibodies, instead of neutralizing antibodies,” Risch said. “And that’s the reason I believe that we’ve seen what’s called negative benefit—negative vaccine efficacy over longer time—over four to six to eight months after the last vaccine dose, that one sees the benefit of the vaccines turn negative.”

What this implies, I believe, is that the vaxxes therefore necessarily will do more harm than good, contrary to the mainstream Big Pharma narrative.

Many of us at this blog have been covering the issue of the Covid vaxxes having an immune supressing, if not destroying effect, as best explanations of the fact that across the world there is a pandemic of the vaccinated. However, Kenji Yamamoto, cardiovascular surgeon at Okamura Memorial Hospital’s Center for Varicose Veins (Japan), has published a paper in the Virology Journal showing, based upon other studies published in The Lancet, that eight months after the second Covid-19 vax, that person’s immune system is weaker than a non-vaccinated person. “The decrease in immunity can be caused by several factors such as N1-methylpseudouridine, the spike protein, lipid nanoparticles, antibody-dependent enhancement, and the original antigenic stimulus,” Yamamoto concluded. So, what exact purpose do the vaxxes serve? One would have thought it had something to vaguely deal with disease prevention, and protection.

Indeed, as Pam Geller says, this is something that the mainstream media is not talking about, even as reports of celebrities keeling over come across the newsroom desks, and with reports of young people dying in their sleep. The latest surveillance report from New South Wales (NSW)  has shown that people are 37 times more likely to be hospitalized with Covid-19, notably the BA.4 and BA.5 variants,  if they are vaccinated than if they are not. The health authorities are engaging in a bit of statistical sophistry, arguing that since the vast majority of the population is vaccinated, of course the majority of Covid infected people will be vaccinated. But, this is fallacious, since if the vaccines worked, the vaccinated would not be getting infected at all, it would still be the residual population of the unvaccinated. Vaccines are supposed to produce immunity, not merely be pumped into people, like vast sinks, to make profits for Big Pharma. Otherwise, just tip it down the sink. It is a medical problem that cannot be waved away, that there is a pandemic now of the vaccinated, not the unvaccinated.

For many years I particularly disliked the work of feminist Naomi Wolf. Then something changed: the Covid plandemic. Wolf from the Left took a stand and came to conclusion similar to those reached by the likes of Mike Adams and Dr Robert Malone, that there was a globalist plandemic. In her most recent post she outlines the complex corporate links of Big pHARMa, which is tied up with commo China, who is able to control the plandemic narrative through the corporates, creating the biggest crime in history. As she says in conclusion: “So take all of the above, and map it against the 150,000 plus adverse events in the Pfizer documents, the deadly harms to reproduction, the Western baby die-off, the babies in seizures; map it against the population drop, the rise in disabilities, map it against the rigid, cruel vaccine mandates aimed at Western defense forces (Canada’s, and Australia’s and all of Western Europe’s, as well as at the most powerful military in the world, that of the United States) — map it against the vaccine mandates aimed at our police, our health care workers, our firefighters, our pilots, our first responders, our kids, our babies — all this done by a White House captive, via Hunter Biden’s laptop, to the CCP.

How better to cripple the world’s other superpower than by destroying our American front lines and our American next generation, with tainted, murderous vaccines, flowed easily enough into the West via (not even that many) shell companies and cutouts? How easy to do the same to Western Europe, to Canada and Australia, as a whole?

Geert Vanden Bossche, a virologist, and Covid critic, responds to the question, of what would be your prediction for those who are both unvaccinated against Covid-19 and never previously infected? It seems that the unvaccinated will face the new variants and have their immune system fight against these new bugs, but not having had the dreaded vaxxes, there will not be immune system compromise, of VAIDS, Vaccine Immunodeficiency Syndrome, or ADE, antibody dependent enhancement, so, as with Covid 1.0, they will generally do fine.

Extended question:

What would be your prediction for those who are both unvaccinated against COVID-19 and never previously infected? Let's say those of working age(20 - 55) in fairly good health.
Should they be worried about Avian Flu and Monkeypox, since they have not experienced an infection by SARS-CoV-2?
Are they at risk for serious illness from these more infectious (and future more virulent) SARS-CoV-2 mutants?

The commo China mouth pieces, like the Global Times, have continued their ideological war against the US, as commos naturally do, in the tradition of Chairman Mao, chanting that the US is racist, racist, and more racist. The Left have moved since the 1960s to engager in race war over class war, since capitalism had produced enough goods for the proletarian not to want to make revolution. Consequently, contrary to Karl Marx’s failed prediction of the immiseration of the working class, the working class got consumer goods, and obese from an affluent life style only dreamt about in the Victorian era.. Naturally the left moved to find some new army to fight their ideological war, with race and diversity filling the bill.

Not that I would wish ill upon anyone, but New Zealand had lockdowns nasty enough to rival communist China, and had high Covid vaccination rates. But, as detailed in a mainstream media report, New Zealand now has a Covid-19 death rate at record levels. I believe, that it is the vax at work, doing what it does best.

There has not been much of a moral panic and freak out by the mainstream media over monkeypox one it had disappeared into a particular community. Still, that has not stopped the World Health Organization (WHO) to officially declare monkeypox a global emergency. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made the decision to issue the declaration himself as there was a lack of consensus among the WHO emergency committee. The big question here is: why, given that only five people have died, and medical studies have shown that the present outbreak is driven by sex between men:

Leftist Noam Chomsky had some extra-nasty things to say during the Covid freak out, as Leftist did. However, sometimes he says things that hit the mark. He recently pointed out that at present there are less freedoms in many respects, such as accessing information about the Russian position on the present Ukrainian conflict, then were existing during the USSR regime. I would not want to exactly see the US as worse that the USSR, but it is certainly moving down that road disturbingly fast.

Across the globe there seems to be a concentrated effort to break down food and energy resources. There have been a greater than normal number of fires and “accidents” at food depots, not only in the United States, but Europe, and now Asia, and we seldom hear that the guilty have been captured. It is anyone’s guess when these “accidents” will “accidentally” happen in Australia. And, of course, there are openly deliberate acts to eradicate traditional farming, most brutally in the Neverlands, but the UK is offering lump sum payments for farmers to sell out their farms; we are not told who is buying these once British farms, but my guess would be commo Chinese buyers, and/or Bill Gates style globalists, as Gates himself is doing with US farmland. There is a clear pattern here fitting past announcements of the UN Agenda 2030, to deal with some alleged climate/environment crisis by “sustainable development,” which in more recent times has also been pushed by members of the elite World Economic forum. The common pattern is to strip away all that makes life even moderately bearable for the ordinary person, such as meat, adequate food, and a car fuelled by reliable petrol or diesel to get to work. It is easy to see, as Mike Adams has often argued, that such measures will collapse, if not crash societies, but that is the goal. The globalist elites hope to rebuild from the rubble and ruins that remains, but it is a gamble. If they do succeed in pulling down the foundations of our world, there are no guarantees that they can succeed in their transhumanist agenda, let alone on exotic goals such as space colonies as Elon Musk seems obsessed with. But, worry about failure is something these monsters never do. There is no Plan B, it is all or nothing, and the planet can otherwise burn.

Slowly, but steadily, the Covid mandates are being put back in place, with the BA.4 and BA. 5 variants. Masks are recommended but are likely to become mandatory, and work from home “suggestions” are being made. Then it is just a heartbeat to lockdowns and all we have experienced with Covid in the past. Never mind that the journal Nature reports that “Catching an earlier version of SARS-CoV-2 — particularly Omicron — provides some immunity against the two fast-spreading lineages.”

One of the leading intellectuals who, we hope will continue his fine work in deconstructing and critiquing the central claims behind the Aboriginal voice referendum is Keith Windschuttle, who has already written a book on the real agenda here, namely the breakup of Australia, detailed   in his book, The Break-up of Australia (Quadrant books, 2016). His July Quadrant article, addresses in condensed, but highly readable form, the main ideological myths standing as a foundation for the referendum drive. In a nutshell the aim is for what are now called “first nations,” to become real nations by treaties. But, the Aboriginal groups in history were never nations, but tribes that often went to war against one and other. There was never the unity of common purpose that the idea of a nation depicts. Yet, the lobby presses ahead with this agenda, which can be perceived as one more aspect of the cultural wars. As I see it, the intellectual battles can be won, but what needs to be overcome is the massive guilt trip that the media will roll out, making anyone going for a “NO” vote, a racist. I hope people can get beyond that old worn-out slur, and think about the real issues, detailed by Windschuttle in his important works.

Conor Ross has a challenging article at the ever-interesting Quadrant.org.au, part of a series beginning a wide-ranging critique of the coming referendum on the so-called Aboriginal voice in parliament, essentially creating a third chamber. The main point made in the quotes below is that the ideology of Aboriginal culture being the oldest continuous culture on Earth is false, with the southern African San people being at least 150,000 years. But the more fundamental issue is that this is a conservative/traditional claim, yet the Left championing multiculturalism and diversity, are all into progressivism, singing the virtues of globalism, cosmopolitanism, and racial and cultural change, unending. So, if the Great Replacement is so good for whites, having trashed and eliminated Anglo-Saxon race and culture, why should any culture be preserved at all? If so, why bother with the referendum, since in the end, all races and cultures must be melted down, and maybe the human race itself replaced in the transhumanist agenda of the World Economic Forum?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S. New data released for this week, shows a total of 1,350,950 reports of adverse events following Covid-19 vaccines were submitted between December 14, 2020, and July 15, 2022. A total of 29,635 reports of deaths — an increase of 175 over last week — and 246,676 serious injuries, including deaths, during the same time — an increase of 3,210 compared with lastweek. Of the 29,635 reported deaths, 19,150 cases are attributed to Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine, 7,850 cases to Moderna and 2,577 cases to Johnson & Johnson (J&J). The numbers increase each week.
