the dirty truth of genocide, oh genocide — Powell River, the Sunshine Coast, the Pulp Mill: memories of a kid jigging for cod, landing 40 pound salmon, running away from grizzlies
Very important December 26 message —
Issued by Annett’s friends on December 26, 2021
Many people know and love Kevin Annett Eagle Strong Voice as an unrelenting and courageous fighter for justice and for children. Those of us who have worked alongside him know him to be a loving and humble man who has never asked for anything for himself, but has devoted his life to serve others.
But now, on his behalf, we are asking for those who support Kevin to repay some of what he has given to humanity.
Last month, Kevin was diagnosed with an unusually large kidney stone that is unable to pass, and is continuing to grow. Very soon, it will threaten his kidney and cause other, possibly permanent damage.
His kidney stone must be surgically removed, but the cost of such surgery may exceed $40,000, since his British Columbia Medical Plan does not cover this procedure outside of the province. (Reluctantly, Kevin was forced to leave B.C. last summer after repeated attacks were made against his life.) At age 65, Kevin has little savings, has been permanently blacklisted from employment for over twenty years, and is blocked by the Canadian government from receiving Old Age Security and a pension.
We, the Friends of Kevin Annett, are asking you and those you know with the financial means to help us pay for the cost of Kevin’s kidney operation. We have already raised $5000 in donations but our goal is to raise $50,000, which will cover his treatments, surgery and hospital stay, along with follow up preventive treatments.
If you and others can contribute, please contact us at ciaranbuchanan@protonmail.com or write to Kevin personally at angelfire101@protonmail.com , or leave a message at 386-868-0218. We can arrange direct wire transfer deposits into an account we have set up for this fundraising effort.
On a final, equally urgent note, we are concerned that Kevin’s life will be in danger if he enters a hospital for surgery. Several members of our movement have died while in hospital because of documented foul play.
Knowing this risk, we ask that you help us create a circle of protection around Kevin during and after his surgery, through your physical or prayerful presence with him, and by alerting the world when he is undergoing surgery. We will hold a 24 hour vigil at the hospital during that time, and will have legal observers in or near the operating room.
Do not let Kevin’s many powerful adversaries cause his death, for then all of us will suffer! His life is in God’s hands, but also it is in ours.
We thank you and look forward to hearing from you,
The Friends of Kevin Annett
Watch the documentary — Unrepentant: **Winner: Best International Documentary at the 2006 Los Angeles Independent Film Festival. **Winner: Best Director for an International Documentary at the 2006 New York International Film Festival.
EXCERPT: “…This documentary reveals Canada’s darkest secret – the deliberate extermination of indigenous (Native American) peoples and the theft of their land under the guise of religion. This never before told history as seen through the eyes of this former minister (Kevin Annett) who blew the whistle on his own church, after he learned of thousands of murders in its Indian Residential Schools…”
Ahh, why are those Cahtolic Churches being “trashed”?
I would be happy to speak to you about the social tensions and conflict caused by unpunished crimes committed by the Roman Catholic church, including its standing policy known as Crimen Sollicitationas that requires that Catholics not report in-house child abuse to the police and help cover it up. That criminal conspiracy has helped caused the death of tens of thousands of native children in the misnamed “Indian residential schools” and intergenerational trauma, suicide and misery. And the failure of the government, the courts, and police to hold the Catholic church accountable under the law has created the outrage and frustration that leads to broken church windows and what you call “vandalism”.
Considering that the Catholic church is actively subverting the law by witholding from your police force evidence of child abuse in its Vancouver churches, many people are wondering why neither the courts nor your Department are taking action to stop such criminality by the church. Instead, your main concern appears to be protecting their property. I am sure that neither of you wish to appear to collude with criminality, no matter who commits it.
Over the years, we have provided to the police and media considerable evidence of child trafficking networks being operated in Vancouver and at such locations as Holy Rosary Cathedral and the Vancouver Club. And yet the police have time and again done nothing about it. Such a tacit collusion with a criminal conspiracy to protect child rapists may account for the frustration felt by people victimized by that church that leads to attacks against church property. But surely the systematic violation and taking of children’s lives by that church is as serious and much worse a crime than the breaking of church windows. (Source)
Christmas, Christians — “When the Lord your God brings you into the land that you are entering to take possession of it, and clears away many nations before you, […]and when the Lord your God gives them over to you, and you defeat them, then you must devote them to complete destruction. You shall make no covenant with them and show no mercy to them.” Deuteronomy 7:1-2
In Annett’s documentary Unrepentant, First Peoples spoke to abuse, trauma, torture, and deaths in residential schools. The number that specifically stood out was a woman holding a sign that read 50,000 killed. I asked Annett if he expected ground-penetrating radar to adduce the deaths at the residential school in Port Alberni?
Annett replied: “The general problem is that the serial killer is in charge and the truth works around the edges of the ‘mainstream’. GPR surveys have already been done at the Alberni death camp and the records are public info, also held in our ITCCS archives. They indicate sinkholes and massive soil dislocation.”
What about the churches — Catholic, Anglican, and United — how can they atone for the crime of genocide?
Annett: “The churches can only atone by being shut down and having their property and assets seized as criminal organizations – a requirement under international law; and having their officers arrested and jailed under standing warrants from our 2013 court action.”
Annett spoke to the role of the governments of Canada and its RCMP in the entrenchment of colonialism on First Nation land.
Annett: “But as long as they’re protected by ‘crown’ jurisdiction that won’t happen, hence the need for a new political arrangement – the Republic of Kanata (www.republicofkanata.ca).”
2022 will be the year of the Drug Lords — Pfizer, Merck, Moderna, et al, paid for by you and me. How’s that new pill regimen, of three-a-day, twice daily (6) for five days (30) at $500 a dose from Pfizer, and you and I, taxpayer, are footing that bill.
Pfizer currently has 180,000 treatment courses available worldwide, with roughly 60,000 to 70,000 allocated to the U.S. Federal health officials are expected to ration early shipments to the hardest hit parts of the country. Pfizer said the small supply is due to the manufacturing time — currently about nine months. The company says it can halve production time next year.
The U.S. government has agreed to purchase enough Paxlovid to treat 10 million people. Pfizer says it’s on track to produce 80 million courses globally next year, under contracts with the U.K., Australia and other nations.
No question marks about this pill’s background, the technology, how close it is to anti-viral Ivermectin, etc.? Pfizer’s “drug” is part of a decades-old family of antiviral drugs known as protease inhibitors, which revolutionized the treatment of HIV and hepatitis C. The drugs block a key enzyme which viruses need to multiply in the human body. Again, where is the robust discussion about this drug? Price? And, here, feeding the Medical-Pharma-Insurance Complex:
Patients will need a positive COVID-19 test to get a prescription. And Paxlovid has only proven effective if given within five days of symptoms appearing. With testing supplies stretched, experts worry it may be unrealistic for patients to self-diagnose, get tested, see a physician and pick up a prescription within that narrow window. “If you go outside that window of time I fully expect the effectiveness of this drug is going to fall,” said Andrew Pekosz, a Johns Hopkins University virologist.
May we militate against the military — that complex tied to DARPA, NASA, CDC, ATF, FBI, CIA, ICE, NSA, SS, BP, FUSION, et al.
This film is a riveting saga of the creation of the Panthers in Oakland. Armed with guns and a law book, in 1966 Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale boldly patrolled Oakland’s mean streets, confronting the police over their (mis)treatment of Blacks. Insisting on their Second Amendment right to bear arms and that the so-called “pigs” must obey the letter of the law when interacting with African Americans, their brazen, in-your-snout defiance set Huey, Bobby, and their followers on a collision course with the Oakland PD, soon the Nixon administration, the FBI, and COINTELPRO (as harrowingly recounted in Judas and the Black Messiah).
The Black Power organization spread to Southern California, with the formation by former prisoner Alprentice “Bunchy” Carter and John Huggins of what was arguably the party’s most militant chapter in Los Angeles. The doc recounts the socialist-oriented Panthers’ clash with the so-called “porkchop” cultural nationalists of Ron Karenga’s US Organization, which apparently led to the 1968 shootings of Carter and Huggins at UCLA.
However, the film’s title refers to the climactic shoot-out between the LAPD and the Panthers at the BPP’s L.A. HQ located at 41st and Central in the “’hood.” One of the survivors of that tense confrontation declares onscreen that during this violent five-hour standoff he never felt freer, as he was a Black man deciding who would and would not enter the Panther office, which was even aerial bombed during the armed clash.
Kwanzaa, don’t believe it! —
Kwanzaa celebrates what its founder called the seven principles of Kwanzaa, or Nguzo Saba (originally Nguzu Saba – the seven principles of African Heritage). They were developed in 1965, a year before Kwanzaa itself. These seven principles comprise Kawaida, a Swahili word meaning “common”.
Each of the seven days of Kwanzaa is dedicated to one of the principles, as follows:
Umoja (Unity): To strive for and to maintain unity in the family, community, nation, and race.
Kujichagulia (Self-determination): To define and name ourselves, as well as to create and speak for ourselves.
Ujima (Collective work and responsibilitt): To build and maintain our community together and make our brothers’ and sisters’ problems our problems and to solve them together.
Ujamaa (Cooperative economics): To build and maintain our own stores, shops, and other businesses and to profit from them together.
Nia (Purpose): To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness.
Kuumba (Creativity): To do always as much as we can, in the way we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.
Imani (Faith): To believe with all our hearts in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders, and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.
However, who started this odd thing, Kwanzaa? Bruce Dixon discusses,Black Agenda Report —
I don’t do Kwaanza, I just don’t. I never have, and the very thought of it evokes some difficult memories and feelings for me. It’s not the holiday’s religious trappings or its Afro-syncretic fusion of Jewish menorahs, Swahili words, Kemetic, Christian and other rituals. I understand people do have a perfect human right to adopt or make up the cultural and religious practices that suit them. Rastafarianism , Voudon , Santería and Candomblé all borrow from multiple traditions, as does Islam from Judaism and Christianity, and Christianity from Judaism, Greek and Roman sources, and so on. So I have no quarrel whatsoever with those who celebrate and find value in Kwaanza.
But for many of us who took part in or were simply aware of the Black Panther Party in the late 60s and early 70s, the Kwaanza holiday is inseparable from the career and persona of its inventor, Ron Karenga, now a tenured professor in California. Back in the day, Karenga headed up an organization called US. As a tool of COINTELPRO , the federal counterintelligence program directed at movement organizations, Karenga’s US organization murdered 2 leading members of the Black Panther Party in Los Angeles, Alprentice “Bunchy” Carter and John Huggins, and 2 more in San Diego, Sylvester Bell and John Savage. To my knowledge, Mr. Karenga has never expressed the faintest remorse or regret for these murders, or for his part in furthering the nefarious aims of federal and local police agencies in their assault upon the movement of those times. Karenga was later convicted along with his wife, of kidnapping and torturing two women in his own organization , a crime for which he served 4 years in prison, and one of which he still claims to be innocent. Some of Karenga’s close and credible associates however, like former US chair Wesley Kabaila , maintain Karenga was not only responsible for those women’s torture, but that it was part of an ongoing pattern over the years.
“I’m a feminist,” Kiilu Nyasha, a former Black Panther in New Haven CT told Black Agenda Report. “How can I honor a holiday made up by a man who tortures women in his own organization?”
She’s got a point. Just now, Spelman College is suspending its Bill and Camille Cosby endowed professorship , folks are hiding or throwing away their old Bill Cosby albums and places are covering up the Bill Cosby plaques inside the very buildings built with Cosby money. It’s their very imperfect way, if not of sympathizing with Bill’s long hidden victims, of at least disassociating themselves and their works from Cosby’s apparent crimes. It’s a reasonable precaution. After all, what would we think of charities and institutions who’d taken Cos’s money and loudly celebrated his generosity but couldn’t be bothered with the slightest acknowledgement of his victims?
The way many of us see it, people who celebrate Kwaanza and are getting something out of it should hold that high. We’re happy for them. It’s true enough that Kwaanza is now bigger than the crimes of its founder, and will outlive him. But that doesn’t mean Karenga’s crimes never happened or that they should be forgotten. Someone has to hold high the legacies and the work of John Huggins and Sylvester Bell, of John Savage and of Bunchy Carter. Somebody has to remember who they were, what they lived and served for. Somebody has to recall why they died and at whose hands. While you’re celebrating Kwaanza some of us will be doing that.
This is an archival interview from the upcoming film, 41st & Central: The Untold Story of the L.A. Black Panthers, a documentary series about the Southern California Chapter of The Black Panther Party For Self-Defense. Directed by Gregory Everett son of former L.A. chapter member Jeffrey Everettt. Co-produced by former L.A. chapter member Roland Freeman.
SYNOPSIS: 41st & Central, a two-part documentary series, follows the Southern California Chapter of the Black Panther Party from its glorious Black Power beginnings through to its tragic demise. Despite the Party’s formation of free medical clinics and a successful breakfast program for children, the L.A. chapter was also known as the most violent Black political group in the United States. 41st & Central explores The Black Panther ethos, its conflict with the L.A.P.D. and the US Organization as well as the events that shaped the complicated and often contradictory legacy of the L.A. Panthers.
41st & Central contains interviews with former Black Panther Party members along with archival footage detailing the history of racism in Los Angeles, including the Watts uprising from the perspective of the participants who engaged with the L.A.P.D. 41st & Central is the most in-depth study ever of L.A. Chapter founder Alprentice Bunchy Carter, with the Party’s formation told by the original surviving members and an eyewitness account of Bunchy and John Huggins murder at U.C.L.A. in 1969. The film includes exclusive interviews with Black Panther Party leaders Geronimo Ji Jagga and Elaine Brown about their membership in the L.A. Chapter and the U.C.L.A. murders. Also featured are L.A. Panthers members Ericka Huggins, Roland & Ronald Freeman, Wayne Pharr, Jeffrey Everett, Long John Washington, Muhammad Mubarak, former L.A.P.D. Chief Bernard Parks, US Organization member Wesley Kabaila, U.C.L.A. Professor Scot Brown, and many others.
Why Black Panthers Don’t Celebrate Kwanzaa –Episode 1001
Framing the sophisticated ways of today in terms of harvesting our youth’s souls, Alison McDowell does a decent job, but her voice is a cry in the wilderness.
Elizabeth Hinton’s From The War On Poverty To The War On Crime for further insights into the ways in which the social safety net of Johnson’s Great Society was used to extend police presence in communities of color through public housing and afterschool programs. In this ten-minute clip, Jason Bosch of Argusfest and I discuss the topic on the grounds of the UT Austin campus on a shady hill overlooking the LBJ presidential library and graduate school of public affairs.
And, what would the BPP say about all this nefarious COINTELPRO of the AI-Digital-Social Impact Investing kind? Blockchains! This is a machine, and the intent is to help, but you get caught up in the soul mashing gearwork of these machines, now computing controlling machines.
There are many parallels to what is being set up for the children in Rio and what has happened to the children of Philadelphia over the past decade. Despite the geographic distance, the playbook and many of the organizations are the same. What Silicon Valley needs next is digital ID, programmable money, and real-time geo-fencing to begin to enforce their planned cybernetic remaking of society. This will be systems engineering at scale from individual neurons tweaked with targeted dopamine hits and nanotechnology to entire populations groomed through ubiquitous computing embedded in smart-city mixed reality to offer up their data, interoperable on blockchain, to the hivemind. There will be gaming, lots of gaming, paid in digital scrip and aligned with performative identity scripted by the Global North in a misguided attempt to erase indigeneity and optimize soul harvest. It’s all framed in terms of saving the planet and solving poverty, of course. They’ve set up the framework so that any attempt to resist appears unseemly, selfish, and even racist.
It is vital that more people start to understand how social entrepreneurs and impact investors intend to corral today’s youth into mixed reality; take away their economic independence; condition them to a surveillance panopticon; farm them for compliance data; and package their futures as commodities to be traded as asset backed securities rated based on how they utilize privatized welfare or blockchain Universal Basic Income.
If this is not sickening, foreboding, welcome, then, thank you, Christmas Eve . . . . Then connecting the dots by journalists to see how powerful TPTB are, well, then, let them wire us all — the entire house, the car, the backyard, and our fucking bodies. Is this legal? Passports to hell, that’s what has been foisted upon us. Who will complain that the CDC, of all agencies, has the power to get our travel records, records on who we are, our medical records, all of it? Once you take a freedom away, it’s gone forever, until you revolt and destroy the cancer. These are many freedoms scuttled.
The CDC last month ordered airlines to disclose passenger names and other information about those who have recently been in the eight southern African countries.
These activity records were now available for the first time in a form called metadata. Things that are analogous to what a private detective would get from following you around in your daily life and taking pictures and writing down notes were now being produced by the smartphones in our pockets, by the laptops on our desk or on the couch next to us. But it was also coming from your TV. It was also coming from your car, you know, the systems inside of that. It was coming from automated license plate readers. All of these things for the first time were producing information, that now the government went, “What if we didn’t have to go to a judge in every individual case and say we thought this person was up to no good? What if, under the aegis of the threat of terrorism, we could say we want to collect all information that could potentially, theoretically, be relevant to a terrorism investigation before we need it? And we’ll simply say, ‘Look, we’re not going to look at this information if you’re not suspected of a crime, but we will still gather it about you as though you were committing a crime.’”
This is what changed, and this is what continues today. What has actually happened that expands this to an even greater state of alarm is that now this is a business model. Now corporations are getting into this, and they’re competing against each other to see who can provide a similar product, an even more attractive product, not just to governments, who they do sell this information to as a service, but also to advertisers and anyone else who’s willing to pay. That’s what’s changed.
Glenn Greenwald: “And I think it gets back to what Chris said: Julian was doing the kind of whistleblowing and reporting, like Ed was doing, that the government doesn’t want. And what they do, what they think is reporting, is when the CIA comes to you or the FBI comes to you and says, “Here’s the information we want to be published,” and then they go and publish it. And I think they are a huge impediment to so many of the goals that we’ve been talking about trying to reach, but also a crucial instrument that’s being used by these centers of authority to maintain these repressive structures in place.” (source)
We know that I am being tracked by accessing this article, and then, on Word Press? Reprinting the link and title and then commenting on why we need robust investigations on this “bug,” these jabs, and the origins of the SARS-CoV2 Super Duper DARPA Virus to End All Viruses.
‘The BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 reprograms both adaptive and innate immune responses’ It’s all in the title… by Jessica Rose
The bottom line here is this. We know that innate responses are vital to a healthy and optimally-functioning immune system. They are vitally integrated with and into the adaptive responses as these two branches work in impeccable, complex harmony. We also know that there are cases where vaccines have caused dysregulation of innate responses in humans. We also know that something is very, very wrong with these COVID-19 injectable products with regards to persistent hyperinflammation and a plethora of systemic and physiologically-comprehensive adverse events including death from micro-emboli formation and clotting. We also know that these authors have now provided evidence to support that these COVID-19 injectable products are modulating innate responses and that this isn’t limited to problems with COVID-19. Problems with fungi, other viruses and bacteria can be anticipated. VAERS has hundreds of thousands of reports of adverse events related to fungal infections, plagues of herpes zoster occurrences (shingles) indicating weakened immunity, cancers coming out of remission, and the list goes on. And most of these reports are made for adults.
Here’s the thing…
Since children have extraordinary capabilities with regards to dealing with COVID-19 via their innate immune system responses, what will happen to them if these are not only by-passed by these injections, but knocked down by them?
It’s about this cracker telling us what we should do, think, be!
Life, liberaty and the rights of, well, depending on the times, the leadership, the scum of politics rising to the top. We are illegals anytime THEY decide.
China then, China now!
Great White Cowboys Whipping Haitians, 2021! Operation Wetback was an immigration law enforcement initiative created by Joseph Swing, the Director of the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), in cooperation with the Mexican government. The program was implemented in June 1954 by U.S. Attorney General Herbert Brownell
A 10-count indictment, filed the day before, charged the socialist and labor leader with, among other things, “unlawfully, willfully and feloniously cause and attempt to cause and incite and attempt to incite, insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny and refusal of duty, in the military and naval forces of the United States.”
Following the indictment, Debs fully recognized the severity of the charges. In a letter to a friend on July 6, 1918, he confided, “I am expecting nothing but conviction under a law flagrantly unconstitutional and which was framed especially for the suppression of free speech.”
That is the Dark Winter, and listening to Biden Tuesday, Dec. 21, I see yet another dark dark day for all of 2022-2030. Look, I worked in a memory day activity facility. Been around many cool adults who once had formerly incredible lives: concert pianist, actors, a senator, several doctors, several professors, engineers, scientists, and business owners. Various levels of Dementia and Cognitive Impairment. Age related, and for some, hit with Alzheimer’s in their 50s!
I am not denigrating those with mental ailments, but the bottom line is this POTUS, like the last POTUS, has had proven problems with brain capacity. Even their own party pukes, during the lead up to Trump getting the nomination and Biden getting it, decried these two respectively, for many many processing issues. Forget about the accused rapes both men have under their belts. Forget about their ties to money-banks-criminals in the capitalist class. Forget about both of their racist ideology. Bottom line is they are incompetent to represent people, us, the 80 percent. Is that planned? You betcha.
Ending 2021 with a few interesting writers’ perspectives on the SARS-CoV2 narrative and rollout of more and more bad science, worse policies, and even worse journalism (lack thereof) is good for some of us, but the bottom line is that most people who NEED to be reached do not read this stuff.
Here, an older take on forcing youth, babies, to get jabbed:
“Children are not at risk of getting Covid. And if they do get it, their symptoms are mild. The survival rate for the young is 99.997% – and that’s without any treatment. The data shows that COVID-19 is less deadly than influenza for children. An overwhelming number of peer reviewed studies show that children are not a significant factor in transmission of Covid. Studies in the UK, Australia, Switzerland, France, Sweden and Norway have shown that there is minimal child to child and child to adult transmission in schools. In fact, teachers are less likely to die from Sars-Cov-2 than the general population. The closing of schools is not medically warranted. Children have a powerful immune system geared up to deal with respiratory viruses like Sars-Cov-2. They have cross-protected T-cell immunity from the many colds they have been exposed to in their lives. Kids need to be exposed to viruses and bacteria to strengthen their immune systems and keep them healthy into adulthood. When we understand that children are not at risk from Covid and do not spread it to others, we realize that the measures being put into place are unnecessary, ethically unjustifiable, and simply harmful.”

The mass rollout of COVID-19 vaccines should be halted immediately. These experimental vaccines pose serious dangers. That is the message contained in a statement from concerned citizens soon to be forwarded to India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The statement’s signatories include medical scientists, doctors, epidemiologists, civil servants, civil society organisations and “deeply concerned mothers, fathers, husbands and wives”.
Concerned citizens of India can sign on to the ‘The Truth of COVID-19 — The India Statement’ prior to its dispatch to the PM in the link provided at the end of this article.
Internationally renowned professionals in the field of medical science have also joined this effort by offering their expertise, including Dr Mike Yeadon, Dr Peter McCullough, Dr Pierre Kory, Dr Roger Hodkinson, Professor Sucharit Bhakdi and Dr Tess Lawrie.
The statement comprises two parts. Part one is a five-page summary of the main points and recommendations. This is supported by part two, a 62-page document which quotes the relevant literature and has dozens of references to back up the assertions made about the vaccines, COVID-19 and the vaccination programme.
The contradictions and mixed-messaging around the COVID-19 “pandemic” continue to accumulate and swirl as the “Global Health Emergency” approaches its second anniversary. For example: Just as the Phase-3 trials of the Pfizer “Vax” have come under scrutiny for alleged shoddy methodology by its sub-contractor Ventavia in Texas, the partially Big Pharma-funded FDA has unanimously approved COVID jabs for children as young as 5, even though young people are by far the least vulnerable group to the Virus. Meanwhile, places like highly “vaxxed” Vermont, Gibraltar, and Israel have been experiencing intense COVID spikes of late, whereas relatively restriction-less Florida, a retirement home haven, is doing just fine. What to make of this confounding data?
On top of everything else, there is the issue of the “miracle vaccines” themselves, which have quite remarkably proven to wane in efficacy within mere months of being administered; perhaps we should refer to them as “Partial Immunity Shots,” instead? Nevertheless, the incoherent Biden Administration has dubiously double-downed on “Jabbing!” everything in sight. “Haven’t they heard,” one might reasonably ask,”that tiny, 100% vaccinated Gibraltar is canceling Christmas because of that Grinch, COVID-19?”
Recently, the high-profile celebrity sports action figure Aaron Rodgers reluctantly scrambled into this pandemic fray, causing Mainstream Media pundits to hyperventilate with rabid calls for the star NFL quarterback to be sacked every way to Sunday. Even the mighty New York Times weighed in with this November 8 headline: “Scientists Fight a New Source of Vaccine Misinformation: Aaron Rodgers.” The “reason” for all of this brouhaha (besides, perhaps, a slow news cycle…)? Rodgers, 37, had finally tested “positive” for COVID-19. However, it was then damningly revealed that Mr Rodgers is not, in fact, “vaxxed,” despite his pre-season response that he was “immunized” when asked about his “vaccination” status. “Oh, the Mendacity!” to quote Burl Ives’ character from the film version of Tennessee Williams’ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
And so, as 2021 goose-steps toward its fanatical finish, it is time for my traditional year-end wrap-up. It’s “The Year of the Ox” in the Chinese zodiac, but I’m christening it “The Year of the New Normal Fascist.”
But this isn’t just a story about New Normal Germany, or New Normal Europe, or New Normal Australia. And it isn’t just a story about mass hysteria, or an “overreaction” to a corona virus. The “New Normal” is a global GloboCap co-production, a multi-trillion-dollar co-production, which has been in development for quite some time, and this year has gone exactly to script

Whew, and that’s just a few of the headlines on the coopted Amy “Soros” Goodman show, where she is so pro-pro-pro “don’t ask any questions about Big Pharma, Big Fauci, Big Narrative, Big Planned Pandemic,” that I am having acid reflux (almost) listening to her show. Will she get with the 4IR, Fourth Industrial Revolution, and the World Economic Forum, and all the players in the techno-digital-finance-banking-real estate-Wall Street-global policing story?
Alison McDowell — I’m working on a longer piece about the social impact investing landscape in Brazil, but I wanted to quickly share my response to a clip I pulled from an interview oI’m working on a longer piece about the social impact investing landscape in Brazil, but I wanted to quickly share my response to a clip I pulled from an interview on Derrick Broze’s “The Conscious Resistance Network” page. It’s short, only 90 seconds. In it Broze touches on what he considers problematic uses of blockchain as well as positive use cases. He says that poor children having the chance to get paid to play video games to cover necessities for their families – he mentions repairing their homes – was a good thing. I could not disagree more. This post fits within a much larger story of data-colonial predation by social impact investors targeting the children of Brazil and Rio De Janeiro’s favelas in particular.
But really, Eugene Debbs, hero:
Eugene Debs became Convict No. 9653 at the U.S. Penitentiary, Atlanta, where he was sentenced to 10 years for sedition. (National Archives at Atlanta, RG 129)
How do we deal with something 103 years ago in history, when this society is broken, United States of Amnesia, and that goes the same with UK, EU, et al?
Political cartoonist Clifford Berryman portrayed Debs during his 1920 campaign from his prison cell in the U.S. Penitentiary in Atlanta. Berryman’s “front porch” comment refers to Republican candidate Warren G. Harding’s conservative presidential campaign. (National Archives, RG 46)
This says it all — suppression of a candidate, and alas, if we are left of left AND question the narrative around the New Deal for the Green Deal, and if we question scientists, engineers, technologists, math geniuses, et al, then we are worthless. Oh, these tales the Zombie Americans (and now the world) tell us all. Here, this is what happened to a Eugene Debbs:
As the 1920 presidential election neared, Debs, or Convict 9653, declared his candidacy on the socialist ticket for President for a fifth time. While his supporters campaigned in the streets, Debs campaigned from behind cell bars. His socialist message still appealed to many Americans, and as the returns were tallied, Debs received almost a million votes. With the war over and a newly elected, and sympathetic, Republican President, Warren Harding, in the White House, there were appeals to commute Debs sentence to time served.
President Harding commuted Debs’s sentence to time served, and Debs was released from the Atlanta Penitentiary on Christmas Day, 1921. As he walked away from the prison, accompanied by his brother, Theodore, and other supporters, he heard a growing roar of applause that emanated from behind the barred windows. Debs paused, turned back to face his admirers, removed his hat, acknowledged their ovation, and wept.
Debs boarded a train for Washington, D.C., where he briefly met with President Harding. Afterward he returned home to Terre Haute, where he was greeted by throngs of well-wishers. Debs’s speech and subsequent conviction under the Espionage Act ultimately aided him in delivering the Socialist Party’s antiwar platform to a larger audience, but his age and prison’s deleterious effects on his already fragile health exhausted the orator’s stamina and drive.
With Debs’s health in decline, the Socialist Party also saw a decline in its popularity. In 1926 Debs traveled to Lindlahr Sanitarium in Elmhurst, Illinois, for recurrent medical treatment. He died of heart failure there on October 20, 1926. Debs’s remains were cremated. He is buried in Terre Haute’s Highland Lawn Cemetery. (source)
Oh, they don’t make people like this anymore! [A 14-year-old Eugene Debs (seated, far left) poses for a photograph with his fellow painters at the Vandalia Railroad in Terre Haute, Indiana, 1870. (Debs Collection. Courtesy of Indiana State University, Cunningham Memorial Library)] Debs was convicted under the Espionage Act of 1917 in The United States v. Eugene V. Debs. Any connection to today?
What would Debbs think of these perverted times? What does anyone think of these perverted times? “Meet Ghislaine: Daddy’s Girl.”
Absent from mainstream discourse on Ghislaine Maxwell’s ongoing trial is any mention of the ties, not only of herself, but her family, to Israeli intelligence. Those ties, forged by Ghislaine’s father Robert Maxwell, are critical to understanding Ghislaine’s history and her role in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual blackmail and trafficking network.
Given that blackmail, particularly sexual blackmail, has been used by intelligence agencies – particularly in the US and Israel – since the 1940s and beyond, it is deeply troubling that neither the blackmail or intelligence angle has played any role in the prosecution’s case or in the mainstream media’s coverage of the trial.
To remedy this lack of coverage, Unlimited Hangout is publishing a 2-part investigative report entitled “Meet Ghislaine”, which is adapted from this author’s upcoming book on the subject. This investigation will detail key aspects of Ghislaine Maxwell’s links to intelligence agencies and sexual blackmail activities that are relevant to the case against her and perhaps explain the silence from the prosecution and their interest in sealing potentially incriminating evidence against Ghislaine from public scrutiny. Part 1 of this article will focus on Ghislaine’s father, Robert Maxwell, a “larger than life” figure who straddled the worlds of both business and espionage and whose daughters inherited different aspects of his espionage contacts and activities as well as his influence empire following his 1991 death.
And so much to concentrate on, no, United Snakes of Amerikka?
I have heard this since, oh, the 1990s, from many different people in many varied arenas. Not all my warriors in the battle for justice — social, environmental, education, human rights, cultural, economic — who were long in the tooth made that statement: ‘The world is really screwed, and I am so glad I am sixty . . . seventy . . . eighty.’ That my friends is a huge cop out, and I am now afraid — in the Decade of Planned Pandemic, 2020 – 2030 — this will be the default for more and more people under the weight of inflammatory capitalism.
Look, daily, if they — those old timers — study the mainstream corporate press/media (which they do) or any variation on a theme of so-called “alternative” media (there aren’t really alternatives, per se), they will see each story unfolding to drill panic and impotence into everyone, which not only creates fear and panic, but also creates a sense of collective dread, and stasis of the mind.
+ there is a blood shortage + there are stories daily of shortages of food, fertilizer, meat, vegetables + cost of food is out the roof for the 80 percenters in the society + so many worthless people making so many dollars for what: sports, entertainment, movies, music, investing, and other perverse things tied to the One Percent and the 10 Percent…..
Shortages of construction workers, shortages of truck drivers, shortages, shortages. Then unionizing taking hold in such places as Starbucks and Kelloggs. Constant drum beat of lies about Russia-Ukraine-China-Latin America. Endless wrong headed people at Fox News or CNBC. So much wrong with the fake science of virology, and those talking heads of those agencies ramming vaccines and nothing else down the throats of Americans, and the globe. Imagine, no pitchforks for the multimillionaires and billionaires and corporations making money off of blood — pandemic lies and merchandise, food, necessities, medicine, education, transportation, utilities. Imagine that situation, even for enlightened ones, who were once warriors, but now, they throw up their hands and say, “Oh I pity the youth of today.”
As if this stuff is new? CIA, FBI, War Department, Wars, Weapons, Offensive Tools of Murder? Any of it new to this era, to Gen Z? Come on!
Oh, that greenhouse gas — methane:
On Prince Edward Island in Canada, farmer Joe Dorgan’s unlikely discovery has the potential to change the world.
Dorgan, who founded North Atlantics Organics, which produces and distributes organic seaweed, stumbled upon what is nothing short of a climate miracle — the seeds of which were planted through five generations of family farming along the shores of Prince Edward Island. Back then, farmers harvested seaweed for feed and fertilizer.
Globally, methane is responsible for 30% of global warming. Of that, livestock, such as cattle, account for about one-third of all methane emissions.
“They [researchers] found out that feeding seaweed to cattle would reduce greenhouse gases by as high as 40%,” Dorgan said.
Digesting roughage requires extra digestion from cows and causes cows to burp more. Those burps emit methane, a heat-trapping greenhouse gas that’s 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide.
In a year, a cow emits as much greenhouse gas as a small car. Because animal numbers have skyrocketed to help feed a growing human population, livestock now accounts for 15% of global emissions.
So, instead of having serious discussions on how we all need to reduce the factory farming, the confined/concentrated animal feeding operations, we are talking about growing more stuff — seaweed — so we can have our dairy and burgers. That is the sacrifice zone mentality of capitalism and embedded in those of us hooked on some aspect of capitalism. And it is difficult to live inthe world without some addiction, or many, that rapaciouis consumerism, marketing, retailing, and scams have brought us. I love coffee, but there is a price that goes beyond the grocery store sale of that pound of ground cafe. The way capitalism works it, there are so many layers of exploitation, economies of miss-scale, theft, pollution, illegality and unethical practices. You can believe you have shade tree coffee and beyond fair trade, but that is absurd. That’s $15 a pound.
So, the rich and the richer will get the best of capitalism, and those of us who believe in trade, humane and fair and deeply tied to ethical and envioronmentally sane trade, we have no say since most of us make the pittances that we mostly bargained for as radicals and real leftists who have been marginalized out of living or fair wages in those occupations we ended up in that are NOT STEM or superstar in law-marketing-investing-banking-real estate: FIRE!
Here, 2021, and the US Navy wins. Over the needs for drinking water. But this has been going on forever:
This is Democracy Now!, democracynow.org. I’m Amy Goodman, with Juan González, as we turn now to Hawaii, where the U.S. Navy is facing growing calls to permanently shut down a massive underground fuel storage facility that’s contaminated water supplies in parts of the island of Oahu.
State health officials recently found petroleum levels 350 times the safe limit in a water system that serves over 90,000 Navy families. The Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage Facility has been used since the ’40s to provide fuel to Pearl Harbor. It can hold up to 250 million gallons of fuel. Environmental activists have long called for the Red Hill site to be closed down, in part because it’s located just a hundred feet above the primary groundwater aquifer for Honolulu and the rest of Oahu.
On Monday, the Navy defended its response to the crisis during a 13-hour public hearing. The Navy refused calls to temporarily remove fuel from the tanks, saying the facility, quote, “provides a large preponderance of the war reserve fuel supply for the Indo-Pacific theater.”
Environmental activists and Native Hawaiians have held a number of protests in recent weeks over the water crisis.
SAM IKEHARA: How many more leaks and reports of burning skin will it take? How many more children need to experience headaches, vomiting and diarrhea before the tanks are shut down? There has already been too much harm, too much damage, not enough accountability and not enough healing. Two hundred thousand gallons of fuel cannot be unspilled. The skin cannot be unburned. But it is not too late to do the right thing and shut down Red Hill before an even greater catastrophe is upon us.
Those dirty, bloody mercenaries —
Shares of several leading COVID-19 vaccine makers were jumping as of 10:44 a.m. ET on Monday. BioNTech (NASDAQ:BNTX) stock was up 6.2%. Shares of Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) were rising 5.7% higher. Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) stock was trailing not too far behind, with a 3.8% gain.
There was one common denominator behind the rise of these vaccine stocks. On Sunday, United Kingdom Prime Minister Boris Johnson warned that a “tidal wave” of COVID-19 cases in the country stemming from the omicron variant could be on the way. The U.K. is accelerating its booster program. Investors could be anticipating that other countries could be on a similar path.
We can’t even follow through on a vote of the people, in California, for more “human” treatment of farm animals (contradiction in terms). Amazing how dysfunctional Capitalism is, and how perverted the corporations are and how they have pimped out politicians galore.
Simple humane stuff — The California law requires that breeding pigs, egg-laying chickens and veal calves be given enough space to stand and turn around. For pigs, that means they no longer can be kept in narrow “gestation crates” and must have 24 square feet (2.23 square meters) of usable space. But the restaurant thugs — lobbies/industry groups — and the grocers and the animal meat thugs — are against even that minor shift in treating animals with a bit of more space in their torture chambers before they are further tortued before butchery. The numbers are staggering, how much bacon Californians eats, and most of it comes from other states. Here is the impotence of capitalism — profits over everything:
“Producers of eggs and veal appear able to meet the new law, but hog farmers argued the changes would be too expensive and couldn’t be carried out until the state approved final regulations for the new standards. An estimate from North Carolina State University found the new standard would cost about 15% more per animal for a farm with 1,000 breeding pigs. The National Pork Producers Council has challenged California’s right to impose standards on businesses in other states, but so far those efforts have failed. California is the nation’s largest market for pork, and producers in major hog states like Iowa provide more than 80% of the roughly 255 million pounds (115 million kilograms) that California’s restaurants and groceries use each month, according to Rabobank, a global food and agriculture financial services company.”
Pigs, uh? Swine flu, huh? Zoonotic diseases, uh? Pig waste lagoons, uh? Spoiled soil, waterways, air, uh, from pig producing? Then, since they are confined, pigs then become these antibiotic resistent, bacteria breeding, and virus harboring ghosts of their previous selves. Bovine? Poultry? This is madness:
Researchers have developed an on-site bovine respiratory disease test that provides results within an hour, a breakthrough that experts say has the potential to save the cattle industry millions of dollars.
The technology likely won’t be in farmers’ and veterinarians’ hands for a while because it must undergo further testing and development, but researchers say the future looks promising.
Bovine respiratory disease, or BRD, is the costliest disease in the beef cattle industry nationwide, causing nearly $1 billion in losses annually, according to Mohit Verma, the project’s lead researcher and a professor of agricultural and biological engineering at Purdue University.
Josiah Davidson, a graduate student in Mohit Verma’s lab, shows the color change in a new pen-side bovine respiratory disease test. (Source)
The above image accompanies a piece about how the AP and others are attacking Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and, well, the AP and the American people (pre-Covid-19) believed the lies of the militarists, the pigs like Ronald Reagan, Nixon, Ford, Bush A and Bush B and Trump. Kennedy continues to self-identify as a lifelong Democrat. Fine, but his book is amazing, and Fauci is, truly, if you spent just a minute or two looking at his records, well, Fauci is criminal. And as such, he is running the criminal enterprise. No other way to work this Covid-19-SARS-CoV2 other than through the auspices of CDC, NIAID, NIH, WHO, and others.
So the Associated Press (AP) assigned six “reporters” to put out a 4,000-word hit piece on Kennedy.
This appears to be part of a wave of paid retribution stemming from Kennedy’s extraordinary record of successfully challenging the dishonest Pharma narrative.
The AP hit piece reveals nothing new about Kennedy but it tells us heaps about the worldview and mindset of the corrupt white-collar class that makes their bread defending the Pharma cartel.
Whether you like him or not, Kennedy is a serious scholar. “The Real Anthony Fauci” is 480 pages and involved a team of more than 20 world-class research scholars working for more than a year. (source)

“You know what I think?” she says. “That people’s memories are maybe the fuel they burn to stay alive. Whether those memories have any actual importance or not, it doesn’t matter as far as the maintenance of life is concerned. They’re all just fuel. Advertising fillers in the newspaper, philosophy books, dirty pictures in a magazine, a bundle of ten-thousand-yen bills: when you feed ’em to the fire, they’re all just paper. The fire isn’t thinking ‘Oh, this is Kant,’ or ‘Oh, this is the Yomiuri evening edition,’ or ‘Nice tits,’ while it burns. To the fire, they’re nothing but scraps of paper. It’s the exact same thing. Important memories, not-so-important memories, totally useless memories: there’s no distinction–they’re all just fuel.”
– Haruki Murakami, After Dark
I’m thinking about nuclear energy, the waste, the fallout, radioactive new elements. I’m thinking about all those antibiotics, about all those rat-roach-flie-mosquito poisons. I’m thinking about the sprayed-on litany of food enhancers (sic) and the artificial colorings, and the Round-up Ready, for sure. I am thinking about opiod deaths for 18-50 year olds in USA as the number one cause of death for that demographic, at 80 K last year.
But I am also thinking about immune-compromised folk, the gut diseases, the array of diseases of the liver, kidneys, thyroid, stomach. Really, all of those malnourished and over-nourished and oddly chemicalized humans sucking up sugar sugar sugar. All of the combinations of bad in utero bombardments, i.e. epigentics, and then all the fun once coming out of the birth canal or c-section cut. DNA collected. How many jabs at birth? Then, how many (pre-mRNA maintenance series forever) vaccinations before age 5, 8 10, 12?
Serious-serious chronic illnesses associated with thyroid issues. And, this chart below is cartoonish, but if you look into thyroid diseases and the effects, you will shiver. And this is a common problem, becoming bigger with poisons, background radiation, pregnancy, bad food, bad nutrition, stress, plastics in the air-blood-intestines. Oh, what a world, and of course, AMA, CDC, NIAID, NIH, WHO, you name the outfit, they are so hobbled by their germ theory crap, all other things really killing people (and planet) are not only a drag on a broken medical system, but on their economy.
So, that’s just one arena-terrain of issues, the thyroid. Add up the entire issues flooding our endrocrine systems, then add up the microbiome maladies, add up the weathering of humanity under inflammatory capitalism, and here we are going into 2022.
Shoot, let’s inset doomsday #999 just to get gargantuan — the glacier down under:
The Thwaites “Doomsday Glacier” in West Antarctica is spooking scientists. Satellite images shown at a recent meeting December 13th of the American Geophysical Union showed numerous large, diagonal cracks extending across the Thwaites’ floating ice wedge.
This is new information, and it’s a real shocker if only because it’s happening so quickly, much sooner than expectations. It could collapse. And, it’s big, 80 miles across with up to 4,000 feet depth with a 28-mile-wide cracking ice shelf that extends over the Amundsen Sea.
Well, Greta and COP26, and the bagpipes of Glasgow. Another fun reality TV show, is the blank mentality of mainstream and left-stream media: how stories about Omicron and about mandated vaccination boosters x 5, and the complete loss of critical thinking when attempting to challenge the narratives/motives around the shifting baselines on steriods, i.e., fully vaxxed was one (1) J & J and two (2) Moderna’s. Now? The schedule of boosters will be determined not by doctors, not by us, not by the public, us, not by the thinkers, but by them, the elites, and those oh-so-perfectly honest and heroic folks working for Big Pharma which by the way foots the bill for most media in the mainscream, and foots the bills of many university research facilities, and foots the bill for NIH, WHO, FDA, etc.
This is the Atlantic Magazine, one of the elites’ best source of information. When I say elite, I mean highly college degreed folk, the woke folk, all those beautifula nd wannabe beautiful people. Note, when you read these rags, and I inlcude The Nation or even Mother Jones, you get no other perspective outside the mainstream Big Pharma Has All the Answers for SARS-CoV2. DARPA?
For nearly a year now, the phrase fully vaccinated has carried a cachet that it never did before. Being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 is a ticket for a slate of liberties—a pass to travel without testing and skip post-exposure quarantine, per the CDC, and in many parts of the country, a license to enter restaurants, gyms, and bars. For many employees, full vaccination is now a requirement to work; for many individuals, it’s a must for any socialization at all. (source)
I could write this entire blog just looking at the Atlantic’s story here, and how cavalier and how snobby and so tragically hip the verbiage is and the folks cited and interviewed so much on the same sheet of music, which is entirely planned. This is how these writers do their journalism — no push back, no alternative views, no outside the paradigm thinking. Here, last point I can make by pasting another paragraph:
Countries such as Israel have already done it; Anthony Fauci has been gunning for the switch. As he told me this summer, “I bet you any amount of whatever” that three shots, spread out over several months, will ultimately be the “standard regimen for an mRNA vaccine.” Even the CDC told me this week that it “may change [the] definition in the future”—a line it’s never used with me before. For a cautious government agency, that’s kind of a gargantuan leap. A new floor for full vaccination, one that firmly requires what we’re now calling booster shots, is starting to look like a matter of when, not if.
No other forces of medicine and immunology or virology to be consulted??? These writers are dangerous, but they always have been on all given topics — war, surveillence, finance, everything in the Complex. They have credos and pledges to not drill into capitalism. And that means, that this pig of a human, Tony Fauci, can play “I bet” shit word games about boosters that well, hmm, sort of work. Imagine that, funny Tony. And, what the fuck is happening in Israel? Please, look into that mess of vax madness there. “Israel.” How quickly the vaxxed lose immunity, which they never had.
Hands up, or else:
Kids who are exposed to COVID-19 can stay in class as long as they are tested in schools, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a news release on Friday.
“Test-to-Stay is another valuable tool in a layered prevention strategy that includes promoting vaccination of eligible students and staff, requiring everyone age 2 and older wear a mask inside schools and facilities, keeping at least 3 feet of distance between students, screening testing, ventilation, handwashing, and staying home when sick,” the news release reads.
The Test-to-Stay initiative was put into motion by the CDC to help “minimize absenteeism and learning loss which can occur during traditional quarantine at home.”
Again, read the story on “Test to Stay,” and you will get no push back on the policy, on the stupidity of testing, on the masking requirements, on the 3-foot distance lies, man, so-so much wrong with this picture. (Source)
But again, it’s not the air, stupid. It’s not the water, stupid. It’s not the food, stupid. It’s not the chemicals offgassing and in every product a child first comes in contact with up until the grave, stupid. It’s coronavirus, and, it’s compliant people, labeling and creating the “Dirty You,”which in the old days (not so old) was the Dirty Jew-Japanese-Indian-Irishman-Chinaman-Gypsy-Communist-Catholic-Disabled-et al.
I am asked about climate change, as the existential set of crises for humanity. How to stop it, how to mitigate it, how to prepare for it?
Here, from friend, Joe, then my snarky answer —
Paul– It’s pretty fucking obvious the government doesn’t plan to do anything except to promote more air travel, more military use of hydrocarbons, more roads for increased auto and truck travel, more planet destroying corporate agriculture and the list goes on. Besides that most people are not willing to change their lifestyles one bit. They will continue to support the things that kill the planet as they shroud themselves in selfrighteousness because they recycle and separate their food waste and put it in their compost bins made of plastic. They will pat themselves (and on each other’s) backs as they eat organic cucumbers flown in from Chile for their Super Bowl parties. Sick cognitive dissonanced bastards riding towards Hell on earth.
Joe — And the same tools to say stop companies from forcing low wage workers working in warehouses while tornadoes are about to hit and then once those workers are killed injured and traumatized will be the same needed to reorganize humanity for a world without ice: compassion, moral compass, communitarian guidance, systems thinking, socialism, democracy, resiliency, end of economic classes, justice, integrity, regional & multinational planning, valuing safe/ food/ air/ water/ soil, those plus redistribution of work and economic well being …. some or all of these needed to solve little things (sic) and yet we can’t tackle opioid crisis or housing crisis or industrial torture factory animal crisis.
A world without ice without those human values above? Road Warrior and The Road and Minority Report and Soylent Green and Bladerunner all mashed up
Again, the loopy writing of this mainstream and influential rag, The Atlantic. “Climate Change is Going to be Gross: The thick layer of mucilage that covered the Sea of Marmara for weeks was an unsettling glimpse of climate change’s more oozy effects” by Jenna Scatena This Jenna will not interview ecosocialists or those looking at the systems of collapse. Putting one part into the system, and then looking at the system. So, all this dead algae and plankton, off-gassing, mucking up ocean floors and coming to the surface and destroying fish stocks. And yet, no one interviewed looking at how this is just a slice of the destruction pie, and that yes, bacteria and viruses live in the muck, and yes they can get passed on and on and on.
Under aGreen Sky? By Peter Ward?
Paleontologist Peter Ward’s book on mass extinctions and climate change provides a deep-time perspective that is both sobering and necessary. Under a Green Sky puts the present within a geological context while also making the climate crisis feel even more personal and pressing. Before getting that perspective in full, however, readers encounter several fetching narratives of paleontological and other scientific fieldwork across the globe. Captivating as they are, the stories are mostly used to set up later passages that aggressively dismantle an argument Ward clearly loathes: that most past mass extinctions — especially the Permian, some 250 million years ago — were caused by huge meteorite impacts. Ward takes scientists and the media to task for, in his mind, recklessly embracing impacts as the culprit du jour for nearly all prior mass extinctions, when an impact is clearly responsible for just one such die-off: the famous dinosaur-killer 65 million years ago.
Ward presents a powerful alternative model for explaining these extinctions. In short, an increase in carbon dioxide — from volcanism (in the past) or from humans (in the present) — warms the oceans enough to change circulation patterns. When this happens, sulfur-eating microbes sometimes thrive. These bacteria produce hydrogen sulfide, which, in sufficient quantities and under certain conditions, outgasses into the air, shreds the ozone layer, and poisons other living things. The warming also causes methane ice under the seas to melt and, well, burp, adding to the nasty mix. The end comes not in a bang but a stinky whimper. (Source)
Here we go, with more info on that Co2 that is misunderstood, for sure!
Quoting: “Where is the “Misanthropocene” right now in relation to past extinction events? The chart below tells the tale. Notice that our current rise in GHG’s is essentially instantaneous in relation to past warmings which took place over thousands of years. As far as scientists can tell, the current warming from industrial civilization is the most rapid in geologic time. Ice core and marine sediment data in the paleoclimatology archive have revealed brief periods of rapid warming and there is no reason to believe modern man is immune to such catastrophic and abrupt climate events. In fact, we know that the Arctic is already warming twice as fast as anywhere else on the planet. Earth sensitivity to climate change is now thought to be possibly double that of previous estimates. An entirely different planet can result from just a slight change in temperature:
We’re about halfway towards the same CO2 levels as the Paleocene Thermal Extinction, but our speed of trajectory surpasses even that of the Permian Extinction:
In 2005, Lee R. Kump and fellow scientists published a paper describing what would become known as the Kump hypothesis, implicating hydrogen sulfide (H2S) as the primary culprit in past mass extinctions. According to OSHA, “a level of H2S gas at or above 100 ppm is immediately dangerous to life and health.” Prior to Kump’s study, the working theory had been that some sort of singular, cataclysmic event such as an asteroid strike was to blame for all mass die-offs, but Kump and colleagues proposed that a global warming-induced asphyxiation via hydrogen sulfide gas(H2S) was to blame for snuffing out life under the sea, on the land, and in the air. In past mass extinctions, volcanic eruptions and thawing methane hydrates created greenhouse-gas warmings that culminated in the release of poisonous gas from oxygen-depleted oceans. Humans with their fossil fuel-eating machines are unwittingly producing the same conditions today. The Kump hypothesis (elevated CO2 with lowering O2 levels) is now regarded as the most plausible explanation for the majority of mass extinctions in earth’s history.”
U.S. commerce secretary, Wilbur Ross, glibly remarked in January that the COVID-19 epidemic in China would be positive for the U.S. economy. Some cynical journalists believe Wuhan was a good spot for release because any genetic modifications revealed in its sequence could later be blamed on Wuhan’s biosafety level-4 lab, thus achieving plausible deniability – the CIA’s operational hallmark.
Continually, the narratives around Big Pharma, the lockdowns, the Ministry of Truths (media, government, business, academic) tied to any sort of inquiry into what the hell is going on with jabs, lockdowns, virus X, Y, Z, omega variants, what the human microbiome is, all of that, you’d expect, to be questioned and discussed. You know — journalists not taking the words hook-line-and-sinker from anyone, any entity, any government body, any PR spinner, any authority, any policing agency, any corporation, and any of it if it stinks of group think and ramrodding forced feeding.
There are the legacy media/press, and then the big time media, the cable networks, the entire thuggery of mainstream newspaper and magazine journalism, where again gatekeeping and a bizarre code of “not going after the drug-pharma-virology-research end of science” holds them captive. This positioning that everything coming out of CDC and NIH and the various countries’ Covid-Task Forces as being sacrosanct is not just troubling, but is anti-free speech, anti-humanity.
Because, there is a history of bad acting by science and technology and engineering, and there is a boatload of reports and books on the cover-ups and the mistakes and the outright fear mongering science-engineering-medicine-pharma has unloaded onto humanity.
The lab coats, the shiny labs, the triple post doc degrees for each vaunted scientist, all the fawning, all the glory through grants, through agency titles and gigs, all the university associations, it all seems as if these people are many cuts above the rest of us ignorant fools, so even scientists-turned-journalists are made to look like fools when questioning the mainstream narratives.
So many earnest, smart, working doctors are made to look like fools by global media. But, Richard Fleming, MD, JD? Drats, his comments airing on InfoWars, so it must be BAD.
So, calling Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., a looney makes a lot of sense in this upside down world of left is right and lies are truth. War is the peace given those mandates, lockdowns, fear, Zoom Life, inflationary trends, poverty, unemployment, eviction, foreclosures, and “getting anything anyway possible” training for the masses are played out and propped up by a compliant media and lockstep authorities from city, county, states and nations, across the globe.
The fact that many many doctors and scientists — a few million — are not at the center of discussion on what is happening with Omicron, or are not buying the PR spin from Big Pharma on not only pushing more and more more boosters, but now more new and improved (sic) main shots for Omicron, that is the crime against humanity.
Really, there are literally many many folk who have the training, the degrees (if that’s your litmus test) and direct work experience with medicine, the virus research, physics, more, gaslit and censored, silenced, marginalized, and, well, finished.
Yet, RFK, Jr., is a looney.
Story at-a-glance:
Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci have created a formidable public-private partnership that wields incredible power over the American public, along with global health and food policies.
Inspired by Rockefeller’s business model, Bill and Melinda Gates donated $36 billion worth of Microsoft stock to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) between 1994 and 2018.
Gates also created Bill Gates Investments (BGI), which predominantly invests in multinational food, agriculture, pharmaceutical, energy, telecom and tech companies with global operations.
Gates strategically targets BMGF’s charitable gifts to give him control of the international health and agricultural agencies and the media, allowing him to dictate global health and food.
Fauci and Gates met in person, shaking hands in 2000 in an agreement to control and expand the global vaccine enterprise.
It does seem crazy, no, with all the cable news yammering, with all the lock-step health department promos to jab-jab-jab. It is amazing that other methods of preventing severe flu illness or severe Covid-19 symptoms are not in the toolboxes. So many other ways to tackle sickness.
Yes, the following words, in the context of the narrative set forth by the elite and those following the elite, and all the journalists who follow their orders from the colonies of compliant thinking — Ivy League schools, think tanks, media operations, etc. — seem like lunacy in this day and age:
A new press release published on the 17th August, which can be viewed here, confirms that the pair have received sworn affidavits from leading experts including research scientist and nuclear cardiologist Dr Richard M. Fleming, the Nobel Laureate virologist Professor Luc A. Montagnier, and Dr Kevin W. McCairn, a neuroscientist and expert on neurological disease.
A new claim has since been submitted to the ICC due to the vast amount of new evidence and information that has come to light in the past few months, and the lawyers say they now have compelling evidence that “the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the Covid-19 ‘vaccines’ are deliberately engineered bioweapons that have been released in two phases on unsuspecting peoples of the world”.
Attorney Melinda C. Mayne, and Kaira S. McCallum have also confirmed that they have now been joined by lawyers who have filed similar Requests for Investigation to the International Criminal Court, in France, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
In any case, the facts need to be investigated, and any sort of lockdown on robust investigative journalism is a crime against the people.
Speaking with MintPress News, Linsey McGoey, a professor of sociology at the University of Essex, U.K., explained that Gates’ philanthropy comes with a price:
“Philanthropy can and is being used deliberately to divert attention away from different forms of economic exploitation that underpin global inequality today.
“The new ‘philanthrocapitalism’ threatens democracy by increasing the power of the corporate sector at the expense of the public sector organizations, which increasingly face budget squeezes, in part by excessively remunerating for-profit organizations to deliver public services that could be delivered more cheaply without private sector involvement.”
We are in dark times, where people will not open themselves up to discussion. Case closed. Remember those cases closed days a few weeks ago?
In a recent article (“The Anti-Science Left Doesn’t Want You Asking Questions”), Candace Owens did something brave: she told the truth, that many women said they were experiencing symptoms after getting the jab. Predictably, Owens was accused of being a conspiracy theorist, a liar and an “anti-vaxxer causing vaccine hesitancy.”
But now, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are looking into the trend because apparently, what Owens described is happening at an alarming rate. The NIH is “ordering a $1.6 million study into how covid vaccines impact menstrual cycles,” she says.
Although people like National Institute of Child Health and Human Development director Diana Bianchi knew that changes to menstruation were happening, she characterized them as “‘not a life-or-death issue,’” Owens said. “So, they allowed women to be gaslit for months online – censored by fact-checkers because it wasn’t a priority for them to look into the issue. Disparaging labels were slapped on any woman who shared the truth about what they were experiencing, because after all, ‘experts say there is no evidence that vaccines impact fertility.’”
Owens simply told the truth and asked important questions. So did rapper Nicki Minaj when she shared an anecdote about someone she knew in Trinidad who reported swollen testicles after getting the jab. Minaj merely encouraged people to do their own research. The reaction? MSM journalists attacked her in the most vicious manner. Piers Morgan, a loosely defined “journalist” with The Daily Mail, said, “She is peddling lies that will cost lives.” As if some Science god made him the soothsayer of truth and honest journalism. At best, Morgan is a peddler of banal gossip and trite, secondhand news.
Well, I suppose everyone is a looney in “their” book:
Here, my response to a friend concerning a journalist who will not look at questions surrounding these “vaccines” or look at the research behind them and other aspects of agency capture and nefarious testing and hidden projects tied to the gain of function work, and the mRNA warp speed.
Quoting myself: “Yeah, I got it too, Joe. I am not saying you shouldn’t go at it with him, but I don’t have much context about he and his blog. But I do know colonized minds, and shoot, you know, polio and Salk, and then, how does this relate to anything tied to mRNA, and why there are no WHY’s allowed in the discourse even by research journalists, MDs, PhD’s, virologists, and others. That’s the problem here, is that the narrative this fellow follows is pretty fucking limited, and if you look hard at his position, it is a position that comes from the mainstream, truly, and then if he tries to go outside that, then it’s coming from a democrat-progressive(sic) left.
I just talked with Bob Z, 80, who just had a knee replacement in Spokane. He is from Minnesota, ex hippie, does archival stuff tied to the Dylan days, and the ’60s. He was my producer on my radio show. He loves what I did then, and my writing, but he still basically admits he watches cable, CNN, and does read some things thrown at him via the emails. I do not hit him with much of my stuff anymore.
He says that he could have had a week in rehab, but the doctors and med staff at the hospital in Spokane stated that the unvaccinated are taking up bed space in rehab centers, retirement facilities and hospitals so no room. We can go back and forth with what he knows and what I know, and he admits I know a lot more on a lot more topics, including the SARS origins, the dark side of DARPA and NIH, etc., etc. And what these jabs are, etc.
Yet, he states, or asks, “Isn’t RFK, Jr a looney?” And there it is, so I go back, walk him back to 2005 when RFK Jr. came to Spokane to dedicate the new Riverkeeper. How his talk was jam packed. How people swooned over his smarts, his licks, and his speaking and litigation abilities. I even wrote a piece on him for the local weekly. Bob Z knew that, and I mentioned the appearance in my hour-long weekly radio show, which he produced. Then, in 16 years, most of those same formerly fawning people will call him looney, crackpot, anti-vaxx, and off the deep end.
So, in those 16 years, RFK Jr has been at work. Has been working hard, in fact, and in many countries and in fields still tied to environmental law arena and other arenas. Like drug companies, big Pharma and the vaxxing biz. And he’s talked with scientists, doctors, advocates, lay people, and others. A lot of talks and depositions.
He’s 67, and now, somehow this fellow at age 51 when he was well regarded in 2005 and talked in Spokane and was loved then, now is looney.
That is the issue, then, no, maybe I who was sort of well regarded, but a dissenter and dissident and disbeliever in all those sacred cows, but smart enough, maybe now, at age 64, I too am a Looney Tunes?
Even though in 16 fucking years I have had more than a dozen different jobs, entered more than 5 very different fields, have been writing and publishing, and teaching, and learning, but alas, those fucking 16 years are meaningless, or speak to a sliding slow lunacy? These people are Ministry of Truth fuckers, and while not 1984 and Big Brother of Orwellian modeling, they still are big on science. It goes to environmentalism and climate change and sustainability. They think somehow that doctors working on diseases and disease prevention are protected from criticism. Put some of those experts in the BIPOC category, and many in the female category, and, most being Democrats, and this is where we are. Those labs and those petri dishes and those studies and animal modeling and computing and all of that, it is sacred space.
I don’t know what else to say. Because if you are in echo chambers like these folk are, the echo sounds valuable, important and loud. Leaps of faith. The greater good even given the risks? All of the marketing that they laugh about, tied to smoking or big defense industries, but then, they are bamboozled when it comes to CDC, Johns Hopkins, UNC, NIH, et al marketing.
Are there fewer people I can count on to have a smart discussion on many things? Yep. Do I have anything in common with these docs and scientists who yammer about the USA being the United Socialist America? Nope. Do they have some things to say about Covid-19, mRNA, PCR, origins? Yep. Do I throw everything they know and all the work they have done on this pandemic out the window because I think they are abhorant and stupid when it comes to China, Russia, Iran et al? No. Would they line my ass up for firing squad and imprisonment for my work on critical race and my communist leanings and my idea about world government and world corporate fascism? Yep, I believe many might. But . . . . .
No discussion with the liberals? No open minds? No willingness to doubt the authorities? No going outside their lanes? That is what I have issue with, and so I am feeling like the walls of common sense and decent rhetoric and humane thinking, well, all are being exploded. Or, the walls are closing in on me. It feels like that daily, truly. Just give in, just stop doubting the jabs, just line up and get the shot. Even those who defend (maybe) the right to not be forcibly vaccinated still caveat that statement with the fact they got the jabs and believe in their efficacy. That line tires the shit out of me, too.” +–+ end of quoting myself!
No matter what we say, there isn’t enough time, not enough bandwidth, and most of these people believe Fauci and believe every single person with a lab coat, Ivy League MD degree, attached to their post-doc work in immunology, virology, biochemistry.
But there are other scientists:
Overall, it’s stunning to read how the scientific community marvels at the ability of influenza type viruses to cause pandemics, because unlike Ebola people don’t die-off within days of exposure but productively transmit the airborne pathogen for two weeks undetected when asymptomatic.
“Influenza is usually transmitted by direct contact but can also be transmitted by aerosol (e.g. on a passenger plane). Indeed, international transmission is increasingly frequent. Notably, aerosol transmission of influenza requires up to 27,000 times fewer virions to induce equivalent disease. Taken together with the fact that the influenza virus is readily accessible and may be causing more deaths than previously suspected, the possibility for genetic engineering and aerosol transmission suggests an enormous potential for bioterrorism.”
Some of the more fascinating discussions in the scientific community involve ethical issues with gain-of-function experimentation. Gain-of-function research involves genetic manipulations that expand the adaptability and/or virulence of a given pathogen.
“Ralph Baric, an infectious-disease researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, last week (November 9) published a study on his team’s efforts to engineer a virus with the surface protein of the SHC014 coronavirus, found in horseshoe bats in China, and the backbone of one that causes human-like severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in mice. The hybrid virus could infect human airway cells and caused disease in mice, according to the team’s results.”
Other interesting discussions involve the resistance of certain DNA and blood types to particular infections and the sensitivity of others:
“One of the reasons COVID-19 can be so fatal to some people is because of their bodies elicit an overzealous immune response called a cytokine storm, which may originate in their DNA. A small study of patients who died from the 2009 H1N1 flu outbreak found that many carried mutations that triggered this self-destructive flood of cytokine molecules. Results from studies on the genetics of COVID-19 susceptibility and severity are beginning to trickle in. One study suggests that variants in the HLA genes likely play a role. Others point to differences in the ABO blood type, as well as variants in the ACE2 gene, which codes for the protein SARS-CoV-2 latches onto to infect human cells. But the findings are all preliminary and require follow-up with larger datasets.”
Also noted by scientists are the distribution of similar DNA and blood types to particular geographical regions and ethnic groups which could potentially enable effective targeting.
“Rather than specifically triggering the toxic effects of organisms such as anthrax, the Sunshine project warned that weapons based on a new medical technique called RNA interference could shut down vital genes. If the sequence of the target gene varies between two different populations the technique could be used to interrupt key body functions in one population and not the other. If as little as 10% or 20% of a target population would be affected, this would wreak havoc among enemy soldiers on a battlefield or in an enemy society as a whole, the group said.” (Fighting the Invisible Enemy – Not COVID 19, but Imperial Fascism)
Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency Attorney Aaron Siri, who represents PHMPT, said:
“Americans must routinely produce documents, pay fines, and otherwise expend resources to comply with the law. Courts don’t inquire as to the ability or financial resources to comply with the law — they must comply.
“In fact, it would be laughable if a billionaire defendant came before a court and claimed poverty to escape making a document production, but that is the FDA’s position.”
The FDA budget for fiscal year 2019 was $6.1 billion. In the FDA’s 64-page briefing, the agency argued it needed the full 75 years to redact and release the documents out of “fairness” to other FOIA requesters.

So, the SARS-CoV2 is in, well, pets. Ferrets, dogs and cats. And deer, tigers, minks, well, you get the picture. This virus has animal hosts. None of what the lock-step folk say about second booster and 3rd and 4th, forced upon everyone, is bizarre.
Again, the breakthroughs, the Omicrons, the variants, for god’s sake, this zoonotic disease is in the water, air, food, crops, and, yep, pets. That program will be launched soon, since the head of Pfizer is a PhD in vet science. All those animals, all those feedlots and barns, all those cuddly ones on the bed and in the house, they too will be forced to get jab and booster.
This is a huge money maker — as big, but scaled up, as the Pet Rock. Can you imagine, a common rock, put in a cheap box, with a cute one page Care Instructions printed up, and sell it for $9.99. But at least you get a rock, which can be used for many many things.
The vaccines x 5, annually, what are they good for? Yep, profits.
It is, alas, a health threat that has been contrived, but now, Merck has a new pill, hmm, so close to ivermectin. Anti viral. Within three days, bringing down the viral load by 95 percent.
Or, SaNoTize — Quote: “A well known antimicrobial, Nitric Oxide, has been found to rapidly reduce SARS-CoV-2 viral load, knocking it down by 95% within 24 hours, and 99% within 72 hours, according to a recent study by researchers funded by England’s NHS foundation trust and SaNOtize Research & Development Corporation – a Canadian biotech company currently conducting Phase II trials of a nitric oxide nasal spray.
A group of 80 adults (18-70 years) with confirmed (Alpha strain) Covid-19 infections were divided into two groups, with half receiving nitric oxide nasal spray (NONS) that were self-administered 5-6 times daily for 9 days. (source)
On the one-year anniversary of the declaration, some of those involved in the public health proposal spoke to The Eagle about their intentions, the fallout, pandemic data and the idea of “focused protection.”https://c4c7ff3ef377267487fdf599479bcb1f.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-38/html/container.html
They say what they proposed was a long-accepted public health concept designed to both protect the old and compromised while allowing the young and healthy to live normally. Their idea was to avoid the collateral health damage of the lockdowns, which would hit the poor the hardest.
The scientists drafted the declaration at the American Institute for Economic Research, a think tank off Division Street in Great Barrington. It has received more than 860,000 signatures from around the world, of which nearly 15,000 of those are from scientists and more than 44,000 are from medical practitioners.
The concept was denounced by other researchers worldwide as both callous and impractical. Great Barrington town officials quickly tried to distance the town — one wanted the policy renamed, while residents joined the chorus. The situation soon dropped the declaration scientists into a political cauldron, as some politicians seized on the proposal, while others rejected it as far-right heartlessness.
GREAT BARRINGTON — Three top scientists say there’s another public health crisis underway, and it is the poor and working class who suffer the…
‘Nothing new’
The scientists say that when they traveled to the Berkshires six months after the lockdowns and began to discuss the crisis, they were upholding a well-established public health practice of “focused protection.”
“So there’s nothing new or innovative in the declaration,” said Dr. Kulldorff, who is a member of the scientific advisory committees to the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “What we saw was that, because people thought that these lockdowns and the masks and so on would protect everybody, [authorities] did not do the focused protection.”https://c4c7ff3ef377267487fdf599479bcb1f.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-38/html/container.html
The resulting deaths bear this out, he added. Kulldorff said there are two underpinnings to the declaration that data now supports: The “thousand-fold difference in mortality” between old and young, and what he says is strong and lasting natural immunity after infection.
“One of the stunning things through this pandemic is the questioning of natural immunity after having COVID,” Kulldorff said. “We didn’t know this a year ago, but now we know that the immunity from having COVID is stronger than after the vaccine.”
Kulldorff is, in part, referring to health officials who appear to be dancing around the immunity issue post-infection, concerned that it will undermine inoculation efforts. The results of a large Israeli study showing robust natural immunity, for instance, demonstrates this.
‘Our crucible’
Dr. Bhattacharya, who is also a professor of health policy and specializes in the economics of health care, moved last month to the school’s newly established Department of Health Policy. It was DeSantis’ Aug. 1 tweet with Bhattacharya’s photo that was nailed to campus kiosks, in which Bhattacharya is quoted about focused protection and linked to death counts in Florida. DeSantis has sown derision for his support of declaration-style COVID policy and opposition to vaccine and mask mandates.
The poster campaign was initially a response to comments Bhattacharya had made about the lack of “high quality” evidence that masks stop the spread of infection, which also led to a faculty petition to silence public health pronouncements contrary to university policy — one that does not overtly target him. But the posters felt threatening, and it took him several days to return to his office.https://c4c7ff3ef377267487fdf599479bcb1f.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-38/html/container.html
“It felt like targeted harassment,” he said. “The poster campaign really shook me.”
In April, Bhattacharya was further linked to DeSantis when he participated in the governor’s April roundtable about “Big Tech censorship and the COVID-19 pandemic.” Kulldorff also participated, as well as Scott Atlas, a fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford who had resigned as former President Donald Trump’s coronavirus advisor.
Bhattacharya says he has never registered for a political party and is obligated as a public health scientist to consult with anyone, regardless of politics. “I’d happily speak with any politician on any side of the issue — I don’t limit my advice,” he said.
The campaign to censure him marks a dangerous decline in discourse, particularly at a university, he said. Bhattacharya says he feels a responsibility to speak what he believes is the truth, given his tenure and job protection.
“I think many people who signed the Great Barrington Declaration have lost their jobs or have been silenced or lost opportunities for grants and collaborations,” he said.
Can we not look at strengthening our immune response, our general terrain healtlh? For hardly any weekly dollar outlay? Zinc, Turmeric Curcumin, D3, aspirin, other supplements and some pharma drugs.
The fate of molnupiravir — developed in partnership between Merck and Ridgeback Therapeutics — is important for both society’s battle against Covid-19 and Merck’s financial fortunes. Experts say that an easy-to-give, oral treatment that keeps people who contract the SARS-CoV-2 virus from being hospitalized or dying would go a long way toward helping society return to normal. Existing pills, such as hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin, have failed to deliver convincing results. Monoclonal antibodies treatments, though very effective, must be given as shots or intravenous infusions.
The entire show has many smoke and mirrors brigades, and many curtains and endless house of mirrors.
Those who oppose the neofeudal authority of the corporate, stakeholder Technate and refuse to comply with the imposition of biosecurity obligations will have their CBDC restricted or switched off. The pseudopandemic has established the framework of the biosecurity state that will control all our lives. The vaccine passports are the gateway to full biometric identity for every citizen in the new normal Technate.
We will be required to show our biometric ID on demand. Access to goods and services will be monitored and restricted as desired by the Technate. UBI and CBDC combined with biometric ID will ensure our compliance. The central planners of the Technate will oversee the AI controlled system which will automatically limit the freedoms of those who defy the rules decreed by the stakeholder capitalists.
Money, as we currently understand it, is no longer required by those behind the pseudopandemic. The net zero carbon economy enables them to seize control of the “global commons.” This means that they will have dominion over all of the Earth’s natural resources. All land, the oceans, the atmosphere and even space is being converted into assets via Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics. (Source)

The researchers said that cats have biological factors that make them more vulnerable than dogs to COVID-19, such as viral receptors that allow the virus to more easily infect cells. Cats are also more likely than dogs to sleep near their owner’s face, which increases their exposure to the virus.
They added that because the infection rate in animals with owners was higher than in those at the shelter and the stray cats, humans are more likely spreading the virus to pets than vice versa, something previous studies have also shown.
Lead author Dorotheee Bienzle, DVM, PhD, recommends that infected owners keep away from their pets and not allow them into their bedroom. “I’d also recommend that you keep your pet away from other people and pets,” she said in the release.
“While the evidence that pets can pass the virus on to other pets is limited, it can’t be excluded,” she added. “Similarly, although pets have not been shown to pass the virus back to people, the possibility can’t be completely ruled out.” (source)
