Spate of mass brawls at German outdoor swimming pools

… Some of the comments, blaming “social hotspots” or so-called “clans”, appear tinged with racism: both are code words for immigrant groups.

“The United States and Australia don’t have everything in common: during 2020, American cops retreated to the donut shop while Australian cops went nuts fining people for going to the beach and the like.”

It’s kind of amusing when Steve points out key words that are missing from articles like immigration, black, Democrat, etc., and then resorts to the same omissions himself. Covid-19 Steve. It was that thing you fell for, remember?

And cops in the US only retreated to the donut shop when it came to negro violence. They were out there harassing, threatening, and arresting dads and veterans for playing in parks and not wearing masks in public places.

There are thousands of hours of cell phone video available on the internet for you to watch illustrating as much, if you can stomach it.

I still remember some Australian lefty screaming about the influence of the KKK in his country. It’s like lefties worldwide have to rip off the US for everything.

(The KKK barely ever existed in *American* history- basically 1866-1868 and then in a very different form from about 1915-1930, and not since. For some reason lefties get *very* angry when this historical fact is brought up.)

… got four times as many COVID fines for breaking public health rules as their share of the state’s population

Suspect they offended at a higher rate. Maybe journalists could look into this.

Oz has gone in 50 years from the “ocker” stereotype of Barry McKenzie and Python (“I don’t want to see anyone mistreating the abos – if there’s anybody looking“) – to the most PC place imaginable.

When Ben Elton had finished with the UK he headed there to help the transformation of Oz.

You literally cannot walk into a supermarket without a large notice telling you that

“MegaMart Pty. acknowledge the Manuru people as the traditional custodians of the land on which this store stands (and we have zero intention of giving the land back, but it’s the thought that counts). We pay respect to their elders, their culture and their sacred spaces (but not in cash).”

Oddly when you walk into an Asian store in Bradford there are no notices acknowledging the traditional custodians of Yorkshire land or any question of respect.

OT — I’m 50, going on 48.

For centuries, Koreans inflated ages compared with the rest of the world. An individual is 1-year-old at birth, and everyone gains a year together on Jan. 1. A New Year’s Eve baby turns two after a single day.

The new law will switch everyone to the international age standard—which starts people at zero on the day they are born. Koreans already born will get younger, and use their birth to determine how old they are. Official documents will start using the international measure, too.

Are their beds still burning?

Muslims have this mythohistorical belief which serves here as a neat ideological trick. Islam is the original human culture, but over the years was perverted away from its nature, into all non-Muslim cultures. But technically, you see, they started out fully authentically Muslim. Finally in the Dark Ages, Allah clarified everything, with the current (but also of course original) version of Islam. So they don’t need to acknowledge previous ownership because they were there first.
(See also “But Europe is not becoming a Muslim land, Europe already was a Muslim land” — Muslims believe that any previous land ownership by Muslims remains “legitimate” forever, even if a temporary Spanish embarassment occurs.)
I learned this after hearing a Muslim student in a class say that Muslims built the Parthenon. There is this tremendous desire to appropriate accomplishments and celebrities, so as to prove how great Islam is.

One thing Australians (on-line, at least) seem to be proud of is that they don’t have open borders. Well, sure, they don’t have ANY borders, but the government has been good about discouraging successful landings of illegals on their shores. (I remember a video about this by some guy in fatigues.)

Yes, the Euros. in the Mediterranean countries should learn from this. However, that doesn’t preclude massive legal immigration from all over being just as bad for the country. “Oh, but we get to PICK them.” (So, too, say the Canadians, but I’ve been to Toronto recently – post coming, hold your horses – and it’s not all so pretty.)

The Chinese may flat-out colonize the place… well, Australia AND Canada, while the Black! vibrancy has its usual effect.

To be fair an Aussie KKK would probably be hilarious. Nobody banters like an Australian.

Still waiting for those Norfolk Island reparations. Nah, who am I kidding? Those guys were white.

Meanwhile, back in the jungle….

I do a lot of business in Australia and visit there a lot. Lovely country and wonderful people. But nothing annoys me more than all of the “traditional custodian acknowledgement” stuff.

Always have to bite my tongue to not say, “Hey, if you want to acknowledge the traditional custodians, just give the sh!t back.” I doubt many of the enthusiastic acknowledgers are willing to sacrifice their houses in Manly or Mosman….

Anyway, lovely people and no more hypocritical than most of us (myself included). No offense intended to any Aussies reading this. Fair Dinkum!!

The evasion of Covid Totalitarianism – is that STILL going on down there?! – is not something I’m all bent out of shape about.

What will happen is that, far from picking on these vibrant “Aussies”, cops and government minions will implement the usual Anarcho-Tyranny. They’ll fine the White people who are responsible and have something to lose, while the vibrant newcomers will be left alone, by some point, just out of fear if nothing else.

This article is probably meant to push this along, rather than having been written to get to the bottom of anything. OK, I’ll click it, since it’s not the NYT or Washington Post:

Yusuf Mohamud was working at a community legal centre in Melbourne’s north-east when the COVID-19 pandemic began.

Along with the grim memories of long lockdowns, he recalls the regular patrols of police cars in his area, and the fear in the voices of his African-Australian clients, often young men, calling for legal help.

“A lot of the areas I work in have a lot of young African communities,” the Somali-Australian lawyer said.

Too many police patrols. We can’t have any of that if we’re going to have a real honest-to-Allah No-Go Zone here.

But it’s all good, because these people came in LEGALLY! Got that?

“ Covid-19 Steve. It was that thing you fell for, remember?”

Steve didn’t “fall for” anything. Sounds like you’re one of those statistical illiterates who fell for some paranoid conspiracies pushed by podcasting supplement-peddlers. Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, oh noes!

Mass third world migration is the most important issue facing the West. It is 100 times more important than Covid. And it is infinitely more important than rehashing your dumb anti-vaxxery.

Apparently, Steve didn’t bother to learn what was happening in Australia during the koofid lockdowns which were brutal in themselves and the repression vicious.

Yea he did, and you’re nothing more than one of his garden variety, duplicitous lick spittles. What’s your real name again? Sodom? Cain? I can’t keep track.

Here’s a pat on the head, little guy. Run along now.

I can’t wait to meet Ahmed Yussef. With proverbial Aussie hospitality, he’ll throw another scorpion on the barbie.

America’s culture has been our most devastating export. Western nations bought into the ‘diversity is our strength’ nonsense and began importing large numbers of people incompatible with their historic social norms and coupled that with American deference to minority grievances (real or perceived). The result is high trust societies become increasingly low trust and riven with the same racial rent seeking that have long been a fixture of American politics. We deserve a lot of the scorn that is directed our way, as our influence has not made lives better for a huge swath of the global population that has been directly affected or watches our embassies hoist the pride flag and lecture them about human rights, when we’re not launching expeditionary wars.

(The KKK barely ever existed in *American* history- basically 1866-1868 and then in a very different form from about 1915-1930, and not since

….the few that are around are more that likely FED…..oh how they yearn for a KKK.

This is called “waqf”, and it is one of the primary reasons the Arab-Israeli sh!tstorm is so intractable; theological reasons, and there are others.

Our leadership (and Americans in general) is so illiterate about everything under the sun, which is the cause of something like 90% of our train wrecks.

I think there’ve been small other factors too, Arclight, such as: The Europeans, Aussies, Canucks, etc., have all looked down on Americans, especially Southerners, for their “mean” treatment of the Black! population with no understanding of what actually has been going on.

The bought all of their OWN BS, and have done these stupid things to show how virtuous they are in comparison to American mean White people and to (attempt to) show us how diversity is done right. What dangerous experiments! Better if they’d all gotten chemistry sets.

Then there was that “Klan” that Bobby Byrd belonged to in the 1940s. Wikipedia calls it *the* Klan, but there was no *the* Klan after some point in the 1930s. when the Second Klan lost its trademark. After that point any entrepreneur or idealist or police operative could set up *the Klan* and that Klan was just as much a Klan as any other Klan set up by anyone else anywhere else.

Colorblind civic nationalism continues its 50-year winning streak. First in America and Australia.

Thank goodness because otherwise whites might start joining the identity politics game to protect themselves. And as we all know from people like Steve and Charles Murray, that would be the worst thing ever.

Why, if that happened, whites might get.to stop groveling and have some pride in themselves. Can’t have that. Right, Steve.

That’s why nobody converts to Islam, they revert. Also the reason it took the Europeans to discover most of what we know about the ancient Egyptians. The Muslims literally had no interest.

COVID was an exercise in totalitarian control, so yeah it’s kind of important. And the GOF labs where they cook up viruses to develop the vaccines to supposedly protect people against the cooked-up viruses need to be burned to the ground.

Open Borders are of course part and parcel of the whole Leftist holiness spiral, along with COVID and global warming. Closed borders are #literallyHitler; no sheetrock hanger’s mask or jab means you’re killing meemaw; people who grill steaks are turning the planet into Venus. Really, for the good of mankind, we just need to execute these people. And they’ll proceed to write an AI algorithm that justifies it.

•Strongly Agree!.

“ COVID was an exercise in totalitarian control, so yeah it’s kind of important.”

Governments have always had extreme powers during pandemics. Compulsory vaccination was uncontroversial even during the libertarian Gilded Age.

In some cases, government pandemic controls went too far (school shutdowns), in others they didn’t go far enough (travel bans). So what?

You missed my main point to Tre. The “totalitarian agenda” isn’t to make people work from home and wear surgical masks at Kroger, it’s to race-replace Europe and White America. On that front, Covid retarded their agenda: it increased white relative fertility, weakened and impoverished leftist urban areas, and decreased migration.

“And the GOF labs where they cook up viruses to develop the vaccines to supposedly protect people against the cooked-up viruses need to be burned to the ground.”

Take that up with Chairman Xi.

Did you get COVID yet? Was it just the flu bro? Or did you cry a river about how bad it was like the other corona deniers? And then fall for treatments that don’t f—ing work but you thought would because they were promoted by YouTube sports commentators instead of doctors?

Suppose they’re glad they gave up their guns now?

“And the GOF labs where they cook up viruses to develop the vaccines to supposedly protect people against the cooked-up viruses need to be burned to the ground.”

If corona was just the flu bro, why bother? Are you just mad because scientists who work in those labs are smarter than you?

Always have to bite my tongue to not say, “Hey, if you want to acknowledge the traditional custodians, just give the sh!t back.”

Nah, I say that in response to anyone who says it. It’s one of the few challenges to Leftist self-righteousness that even most Leftists will laugh at.

The United States and Australia don’t have everything in common

Australian cigarette pack:

American cigarette pack:

Okay, I don’t know for sure that the latter are American, but they are available on Amazon, so the pipeline is.

People who’s first instinct in an argument is to compare their opponents to Hitler are typically morons who don’t have anything interesting to say. But you know who are even dumber? People who are always comparing their opponents to Lord Voldemort, Darth Vader, or other fictional characters like those found in the Bible. At least Hitler was real person whose ideology was followed by real people.

Second Ashes test coming up.

Australia is pretty amazing when it comes to sports. They defeated India in the ICC test championship, a nation of 26 million (mostly) white people defeating a country of 1.3 billion heathen souls. They punch above their weight in golf and tennis, are respectable in soccer ( probably the 4th or 5th most popular sport in Oz) and always have a couple of players playing major league baseball or in the NBA. They dominate in Olympic swimming, do well in cycling, some track events, etc.

Their teams also are remarkably, uh, un-diverse. Usman Khawaja aside, the Ashes squad looks much like every other team they’ve had for more than 100 years. Scotty Boland is aboriginal, supposedly, but he mostly looks like any number of guys named ‘Boland’ you’ll come across.

They made sports a national priority. It’s almost as if a white country that isn’t ashamed of itself can really achieve things when it sets its mind.

The United States and Australia don’t have everything in common: during 2020, American cops retreated to the donut shop while Australian cops went nuts fining people for going to the beach and the like.

American cops were fining people for going to the beach too. And to parks. And to Church.

What are you complaining about, Steve? Those people were just “Knuckleheads” anyway, right?

Governments have always had extreme powers during pandemics. Compulsory vaccination was uncontroversial even during the libertarian Gilded Age.

Yes, governments always seek to claim extreme powers upon any pretext. Another good reason to oppose government emergency measures.

And, medical malpractice has always contributed to pandemic death tolls. In 2020, it was Remdesivir and ventillators. In 1918 it was aspirin:

Aspirin Misuse May Have Made 1918 Flu Pandemic Worse

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/10/091002132346.htm

Another good reason to mistrust “The Science”.

Did you see that LibertyDaily video of some Proud Boys beating up 3 Patriot Front feds yesterday?

Adam Kinzinger slipped up with a “Freudian-tweet” and complained about the Proud Boys “assaulting Federal officers”, a mistaken admission of who Patriot Front is (obvious Feds).

Decent governments don’t do Agents Provacateur. We no longer have a decent government.

OT: For those with a strong stomach, this video posted the Z-Man at Gab shows what the Ukrainians are facing as they approach Russian lines.

Whether you’re on the side of the Ukrainians, Russians or neutral, there was never any doubt that the Ukrainians had no chance of winning this offensive and breaking the Russians lines. The offensive was purely for PR purposes and to keep the West giving Ukraine weapons and money. Guys like this are paying the ultimate price for what amounts to a PR campaign.

Actually, the most pro-Ukrainian people here should be the most angry when they watch this, assuming you have the guts to. Ukraine should never have launched this offensive. They should have pulled back and made the Russian come to them, which would have allowed them to hit the Russians as they approached. Instead, they insanely attacked fortified lines, which allows the Russians to use their aircraft, drones, artillery – and to force the Ukrainians to walk through mine fields.

This is murder.

It’s important to also remember that Australia went that hard because the benefits of such a policy were so much greater. Australia was cut off from the world before Covid made it there (Due to it’s relative isolation already) and it wasn’t until late 2020 that they even had any serious outbreaks. They had sport and other events as normal like New Zealand during most of 2020.

Australia was also able to do things like cut Sydney off from Melbourne (Due to there not being, like say the low countries a fairly high density continuum of people living between cities making outbreaks faster to spread. There is just desert expanse, if you shut the road and ban trail and air travel there would be little if any movement between those cities) and let outbreaks burn out in one major urban area before they spread to another.

Australia actually had a pretty good chance of short and hard lockdowns followed by lax periods working and it pretty much did.

If we lived under a rational regime in the West a big question would have been asked about what if any benefit Australia would get from opening it’s borders again would be. Didn’t see the country or indeed any Western country spectacularly fall apart from immigration being brought to a standstill for a year and a half.

This wasn’t an option as much in the US due to the way people move around so much internally and lacking Australia’s vast empty expanses between cities. Though why Europe reopened their borders to each other despite knowing that it would trigger outbreaks that they would attempt to control with lockdowns despite movement between European countries being much lower and those countries being highly self-sufficient from the before times when countries meant something is beyond me. I remember places like Spain pleading to allow tourism again despite the fact that it would trigger massive outbreaks that would cost Spain and other countries more anyway, very strange.

And yeah, Lebanese are notorious as dumb annoying clannish jackasses in Australia. Not dissimilar to the way Italians are seen in Canada. (And were seen in the US) Few Western countries have ever had such a long history of Arab immigration of such scale as Australia, certainly no Anglophone one. Though it may be that with lower rates overall during the 70s and 80s that it made the Lebs stick out. They certainly left their cultural mark.

People really hate gold chain man in all his forms.

As noted above here, Australia and NZ had fascist style COVID lockdowns second only to mainland China’s.

There is a brutal, bullying streak in the British psyche which manifests openly in places like Canada and Aus/NZ.

Citizens, like in Mother England, have no real “constitutional rights” even if there is a written constitution. Lapdog court “justices” defer to the new “Crown authority” like Justin Trudeau when the truck honking gets too loud.

White Aussies like Canucks and Kiwis are disarmed and easily cowed by the local national cops with nightsticks and real guns. They prefer to follow the sheepish manner of, well, their local sheep.

They pretend to be “free” but instead bow to “democratic fascism” decreed by schoolmarmish leaders who like American Democrats, use any excuse to boss and herd average citizens.

Perhaps the non Whites there are not so servile as former Brits. Chinese are more compliant I suspect. Thank God America kicked out these Brit overlords when we had the chance.

Meanwhile, stupid White Aussies are now “noticing” Forbidden Truths. Good!

That thinking may not be uniquely Muslim. I have heard some evangelicals use the term pre-Christian to describe non-Christians.

“omissions”

Lots of complaints about Steve and his omissions in this thread. What the commenters either forget or don’t understand: Steve is not Big Pix. He’s granular, microscopic when it comes to the topics that earned him admission into the sinister West Virginia castle. His myopia occludes his view on Australia: the main issue the Aussies face is not black people; it’s the black spider. The Funnel Web Threat is existential. There are no boosters for the bite of the Funnel Web, but Steve is lining up for one anyway even though he lives in the San Fernando Valley.

I blame my candy cigarette habit on my weed habit.

All they had to do was ban PCR tests and there wouldn’t have been any “outbreaks”.

At first, wealthier Germans will simply start going to expensive new private pools, members only.

Then the foreigners will begin to get a numerical advantage at public pools and really begin to throw their weight around in them, intimidating the ordinary Germans.

Then working class Germans will stop going to public pools out of fear. They can go to less-sanitary creeks and rivers though, or cheap plastic pools to cool off in backyard-style. Less German children probably learn to swim.

Then the public pools start looking a little ragged, have graffiti, and damaged bathrooms, and public enthusiasm for paying tax monies for their upkeep wanes further. They become “slum pools”, that even newcomers don’t like.

10 years later: wealthy German kids still learn to swim, and wealthy German adults have a more advantageous place to network/not have to hob-knob with the Hoi polli. Poor German youth increasingly don’t learn to swim, are less happy, spend more time on their phones, and gain weight from lack of excerise. Wealthy Germans have a brand new tiny life advantage, further insulating themselves.

It’s not by mistake. It’s on purpose.

America’s culture has been our most devastating export

I don’t know where you get the idea that Oz’s problems are America’s fault. First of all, Australians are very smug about their country and will deflect any alleged problems with the catch-all “well at least we don’t have mass shootings like the Yanks.” This is used throughout the Anglosphere as a put-down of America and as a propaganda wedge to weaken gun rights here. (It won’t work btw)

In other words, Oz celebrates its differences from the U.S., aggressively so. If American culture actually infiltrated Oz, they’d be lining up to buy AR-15s. But they’re not doing that–they can’t, and they’ll tell you that’s how it should be.

As for the race/equity stuff, I think you’ll find that started in Britain. We’ve already established that the 1619/1776 psy-op being peddled by the NY Times is an outgrowth of 200-year-old British propaganda: the Founding Fathers wanted to expand slavery, America is based on lies and deceit, etc. etc. All cooked up in London.

My favorite comedienne does parodies of tourists who spend a couple days in some other country and then come home bragging about their totally immersive cultural experience.

Here’s her take on that one girl who just got back from Australia.

When I was there they called them Lebbos.

But then would tell me you’re not supposed to say that. Except among friends, I guess.

The formerly common Abos had become more circumscribed.

No one though was ashamed about the four Bs: beach, beer, barbie, broads.

As Clive James said, a lot of Australians are descended not from convicts but from the prison wardens who came out with them. That could explain their rather enthusiastic lockdown.

That’s amazing! Wonder what could possibly explain that….?

Australia announces $110 million in new military and humanitarian assistance for Ukraine

June 26, 2023

https://theconversation.com/australia-announces-110-million-in-new-military-and-humanitarian-assistance-for-ukraine-208465

And today our Pentagon announced another $500 million of aid to the Ukraine government. At least it’s less than $2.1 billion the U.S. gave 10 days ago. I guess if you piecemeal it it seems like chump change.

I wonder how much the people in East Palestine, Ohio got from the U.S. government? 🤔

Oh yeah, that’s right, the EPA agreed to test the water and HHS gave a $250k grant to the health center. Oh, and Buttigieg wrote a “sharply worded letter” to Norfolk Southern Railway and eventually made Norfolk Southern pay 5-figures to residents who could show they suffered damage from the train derailment.

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/ohio-train-derailment-buttigieg-pens-sharply-worded-letter/story?id=97327971

Police accountability advocates have accused police of racially profiling these communities.

If racial profiling by police is necessary to save lives, though, especially a lot of lives, then is it really wrong to practice it? Especially if local communities themselves want this?

https://philarchive.org/rec/SESIRP

It seems like a good idea to have a default presumption of colorblindness but to allow this presumption to be overruled in cases where the state has a vital interest and where there is no other way to achieve this interest. Racial profiling might indeed be such a case.

Could also explain their harsh refugee policy:

And yeah, Lebanese are notorious as dumb annoying clannish jackasses in Australia. Not dissimilar to the way Italians are seen in Canada. (And were seen in the US) Few Western countries have ever had such a long history of Arab immigration of such scale as Australia, certainly no Anglophone one.

Who’s Australia’s version of Hadi Matar?

Here in Norway “people of African or Middle Eastern appearance” were over-represented in hospitalizations due to COVID. They had gettogethers to watch a cricket match streamed or some such. They seemed ignorant about the restrictions that had been declared.
Mind you, the chronic Norwegians also held parties, it wasn’t till late in the special circumstances that police was allowed, by a new law, to fine anyone for congregating. Before that police complained they were told to ‘fuck off’ when attempting to disperse any beach party.

It really was a strange time.

In related news, South Africa’s supreme court– yes, the same one that gave all of Africa her only jurisdiction with “same-sex marriage”– has just ruled that flying the old flag constitutes “hate speech” under current statutes:

I liked the old flag. Like California’s, it breaks a fundamental rule of flag design (no words; no other flags snuck in– that means U[T]!– unless used as the canton), but in a very forgivable, almost endearing way. Every US state is– in theory– a republic, and the little flags for the constituent states which formed the RSA were arranged nicely.

The new one looks like Amtrak-on-acid, and, worse, contains no orange at all.

I flew into Vancouver in 2013, and was stunned to see perhaps 200-300 Asians in line at international arrivals with Canadian passports. I had no idea the immigration was of that magnitude.

I don’t know how most Canadians feel about Asian immigrants, but they are mostly not destructive. I have seen the Toronto roster of “most wanted”; there’s not an Asian face; maybe two whites, and the rest are the usual suspects. If only Canadians (an Europeans) had paid the slightest bit of heed to what many Americans have been saying about the inherent behaviors of Africans, especially those arriving straight out of the heart of darkness with no European admixture. The non-Persian middle easterners aren’t far behind in terms of depravity.

Steve didn’t “fall for” anything.

Yeah, he kinda did. He was almost as obsessed with the horrors of covid in 20-21 as he is upset now about black people shooting each other. One problem with Steve is that when he plants his flag on a hill it stays there forever. There is no mea culpa (a la Scott Adams). He just backs away from the issue like Homer backing into the hedge. The fact that the U.S. government created covid and then covered it up. The fact that the government and their MSM agents lied over and over again to shut down the world and rig the 2020 election. The fact that a mysterious “excess death” phenomenon is killing millions of people all over the world (the heavily vaccinated parts, anyway). The fact that no government will merely match up the vaccination records to death records to rule out the vax hypothesis. Yawn . . .

Speaking of proof, I think troof will back me up on this. Not to mention T.D. Good day to you all.

If South Africa hadn’t taken the Union Jack off their flag the Brits should have sued to make them remove it. The U.K. doesn’t have much going for it these days so it’s got to pay attention to its brand.

That’s not entirely true. The US was mostly homogeneous until the Hart-Cellar act. The constitution specifically says who is eligible for citizenship, and it wasn’t peoples from the southern hemisphere, or peoples considered non-white. No one asked the average American if they wanted or needed that change.

Western culture has done damage, but we’ve done a lot of good. I would say more good than bad, from on overall perspective.

A very small, well organized minority can absolutely hold sway over a disorganized majority, and that’s what has been happening. The size and breadth of America works against us in that respect. But, we need to start holding ourselves accountable.

And we need to stop mucking about in the business of other nations. And we need to kick Israel to the curb, and sue for reparations for all the white blood shed on their behalf. Or if (((they’d)))just get the hell out of Dodge, that would be just fine.

If South Africa hadn’t taken the Union Jack off their flag the Brits should have sued to make them remove it.

Or at least the blue parts, which are Scotland’s. Once the UK is no longer U, Hawaii will be the last place in the world to fly the Union Jack.

Or maybe not…

But, as bad as the West is, the BRICs are nowhere near ready-for-prime-time:

A massive fight among hundreds of migrant workers from Central Asian states broke out over the weekend at Gazprom’s Kovykta gas field, where thousands of workers are under pressure to build new infrastructure to meet the terms of a natural gas supply contract to China, according to social media platforms.

https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Mass-Fighting-Breaks-Out-At-Giant-Russian-Gas-Field.amp.html

Nine people are in hospital after a fight between about 300 migrant workers from Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan at Gazprom’s Kovykta gas field in East Siberia.

Several videos of the incident were posted on the Russian social network VK, which suggested the brawl began about noon local time on 23 June in a queue near a canteen.

By the evening, it had spread to other parts of an office compound and temporary housing where migrants stay during their shifts.

Some fighters were using sticks and steel bars as weapons.

Anyone have a link to VK? Get out the popcorn.

The people who run the UK probably consider the Union Jack as distasteful as the old South African flag.

“But, as bad as the West is, the BRICs are nowhere near ready-for-prime-time”.

The worse the West gets, the more conservatives will run this algorithm in their heads. It’s the opposite of the “grass is always greener” mentality. It’s a coping technique for people who want to be patriotic but live in countries that don’t love them back.

On that front, Covid retarded their agenda: it increased white relative fertility, weakened and impoverished leftist urban areas, and decreased migration.

If those things are true, they were unintended consequences of the Bad People’s agenda. In the annus horribilis of 2020 they really only had one immediate agenda item — get rid of Trump! Covid and mail-in ballots looked like the way to do that so they were all in.

It’s not a super-coordinated planned out globalist conspiracy. It’s just lots of powerful interests striving in the same general direction and sending signals through the media as to what advances the program. There are often flaws and inconsistencies in their crowdsourced and groupthinked (groupthought?) agenda. For example, it’s hard to immediately do 180 degree turns on their positions when tactics demand (But they still do — remember when vaccines were untrustworthy if they helped Trump?)

On the other hand, the net result of this distributed effort often does look exactly like it was planned by a bunch of super villains sitting around a table at a secret base inside a volcano.

Australia was a paradise when it had the Whites Only policy

Yeah, what the hell happened to Australia?

An American, I had this image of the joint as being more “wild and free”–more uncrowded, more like the old American West, more free, more “male”, more “cowboy”, more “I’ll do my own thing and you can f’off”–than America itself.

I realize this was hyped up. And I realize all the minoritarian propaganda pours forth from America into every corner of the Anglo-sphere, the English-language-sphere.

But still … to go from that image to a joint of feminized, police statey church ladies … damn.

I think Steve’s position on Covid held up well. Especially since he didn’t have crystal ball like you did.

I would be curious to see what he has to say though.

But, as bad as the West is, the BRICs are nowhere near ready-for-prime-time:

The beauty of the BRICs movement is that they don’t care about bad press. They are about cutting deals for mutual self-defense on economic and security issues, not virtue signaling about muh “human rights” and “liberal democratic values.” They will leave that sissy stuff to the G7.

Nine people are in hospital after a fight between about 300 migrant workers from Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan at Gazprom’s Kovykta gas field in East Siberia.

LOL, I probably couldn’t tell ’em apart. But hell, I’ll root for the Tajiks. Go team Indo-European language family! Screw those Turkic spewing devils!

At least in America when there’s a race riot, it’s pretty easy to tell the sides apart. Our diversity is our strength!

His position on Civid didn’t even hold up at the time. Go back and read his posts.and the replies.

I started to feel embarrassed for him after a while.

Steve wrote American police retreated to the donut shop whereas Australian police kept people from enjoying the beach.
While that is probably largely true, there are counterexamples; this photo is from Malibu California….The
arrest of the solitary paddler.

If the Klan hadn’t actually existed, they would have invented it to fulfill the narrative. That’s basically what they’re doing today — there is no actual Klan of any consequence, it’s basically all FBI informants.

There were a handful of Klansmen who did some illegal things in the ’50s and ’60s but their significance has been totally overblown for propaganda purposes. I think it was Ann Coulter who once added up the entire number of blacks killed by the Klan during the entire decade and it was less than ten — in other words, a death toll similar to a slow weekend of black-on-black violence in Chicago or Detroit today.

The fact that a mysterious “excess death” phenomenon is killing millions of people all over the world (the heavily vaccinated parts, anyway). The fact that no government will merely match up the vaccination records to death records to rule out the vax hypothesis. Yawn . . .

Yawn is right. The same folks that trot out “it was all a scam!”, now trot out “the vax is killing everyone”.

Well both can’t be true. Here’s the US death data:

2009 — 2,437,163
2010 — 2,468,435
2011 — 2,515,458
2012 — 2,543,279
2013 — 2,596,993
2014 — 2,626,418
2015 — 2,712,630
2016 — 2,744,248
2017 — 2,813,503
2018 — 2,839,205
2019 — 2,854,838
2020 — 3,383,729
2021 — 3,458,697
2022 — 3,273,705

It’s pretty clear. US deaths were ticking up a bit less than 50K a year as the much larger Boomer cohorts climbed into the “death zone”… then

— in 2020 deaths jump by 500K.
— in 2021 deaths ooze up but more or less stabilize
— in 2022 deaths fall back a couple hundred thousand, now probably only about 200k over the pre-covid trend. (You’d need some math–pre-covid death rates per age and then the age structure–to get a number. But death increase should be accelerating. Note the first post-War boomers–Clinton, Bush, Trump–are now hitting 77.)

The logical conclusions:
— covid, being new to people’s immune system, pushed a lot of people (about a 1 million Americans), mostly older and/or less healthy over the edge in 2020, 2021.
— now most people either exposed and/or vax’d and the virus itself mutated, covid is killing far fewer people
— the spike protein is bad for you and there are lingering negative health effects from having covid or having the vax for some people so death rates are still higher than pre-covid

Yawn … life goes on.

We could of course talk about something critical like the deliberate genocide of white peoples, white nations, Western civilization by mass immivasion.

2018 — 2,839,205
2019 — 2,854,838
2020 — 3,383,729
2021 — 3,458,697
2022 — 3,273,705

So Covid is over, but deaths are running at 400K per year (15%) more than the 2018-2019 pre-covid baseline. (And, remember, deaths should have returned to below baseline because covid culled all the old and sick people that would be dying about now anyway if covid (and/or retarded anti-covid measures like denying regular healthcare and isolating people) hadn’t pushed them into an early grave in 20-21.)

Yawn … life goes on.

Not for the extra 400K dead people. And these extra dead people are disproportionately younger and healthier than the covid casualties. Some of them are even white, if that helps you care.

Excess deaths have become insignificant since January 2023.

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/excess_deaths.htm

Simple arithmetic over absolute numbers can’t be used since the 1946-1964 cohort is rapidly aging and the leading edge is approaching life expectancy (79 years). Deaths will dramatically increase during 2025 – 2045.

Yeah but Muzzies do it most and best.

The “killer beaches! killer parks! killer golf!” was definitely the most bizarre and stupid part of the vast plethora of stupidity.

Unlike a bunch of folks here, never bothered me much to slap a mask on to go into the store. BFD. I don’t mind having a mask on other people in Walmart trying to cough or sneeze on me while I gathered my milk, eggs, chips and beer. Trivial inconvenience, mild risk reduction.

But outdoor recreation is precisely what you want people to do during a pandemic. Outdoors is best with little chance of a virus getting from A to B–unless A and B snuggle up to each other. So unless you’re really planning on locking everyone up for the duration, outdoor is what you want to encourage. And beach is actually best–salt air and breezes. That’s the gold standard.

We were not completely free of this even in Florida. For about a month–April–they “closed” the beaches as in the beach parks and parking lots. Presumably to discourage the hordes from Orlando. But AnotherMom and I were still free to do our usual beach walk–a mile up the beach, a mile back down, then back to the house. But you had to “walk”. You couldn’t sit still. We once saw a beach ranger harassing a good old boy who was just sitting there by himself. You just have to wonder about the mentality of people? Or I should say you couldn’t sit still unless fishing. Poles and lines apparently mitigate all the virus spreading that sitting promotes. So people who wanted to sit, brought their poles.

Fortunately, after a month DeSantis shut down the crazy and Florida got back to something normal. The beaches were full in May and June. You’d see some weirdos walking the beach with masks on … but hey, I’ve got to look at fats and tats which are much, much uglier. And the kids were back in school in the fall.

The whole thing just an exercise in outing the stupidity and feminine–“OMG they’re golfing! They can’t do that!”–and totalitarian mentality of so many people, and the rarity of “does this make any sense?” reasoning.

>Check out the statistics and compare with places that didn’t commit such heinous violations of the peoples’ rights…

I checked Sweden, commonly cited by anti-lockdown people, and its COVID death rate was substantially greater than Australia or New Zealand.

But opposition to anti-COVID measures has become a religion to some people, the facts don’t matter.

And, medical malpractice has always contributed to pandemic death tolls. In 2020, it was Remdesivir and ventillators. In 1918 it was aspirin:

Aspirin Misuse May Have Made 1918 Flu Pandemic Worse

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/10/091002132346.htm

Another good reason to mistrust “The Science”.

Who are we supposed to trust? Homeopathic frauds? “Traditional medicine” grifters? Screaming 300 pound internet antivaxxers like Alex Jones? Anonymous 90 IQ conspiracy theorist commenters like the ones here afraid of “mRNA vaccines” who don’t even know what mRNA stands for?

Science isn’t perfect. It makes mistakes, sometimes royally screwing things up. It’s still the best method we’ve got.

Some good advice from Chopper Reid in that 2 min video in comment # 11.

Americans would do well to pay heed to that.

Poor German youth increasingly don’t learn to swim, are less happy, spend more time on their phones, and gain weight from lack of excerise…

…and have names like Kevin.

It’s not by mistake. It’s on purpose.

Forgive me for the 100th time pointing out that the Moynihan Report was taken not as a warning, but as a blueprint. By the likes of…

LBJ Used this One Thing To Control Others Around Him, Which Became Known as the Johnson Treatment

Less than a year after this guy took office– and shortly before he was re-endorsed by the voters– Anthony Weiner was born. Funny, I took very different lessons from the 1964 elections– such as never trusting anyone with that name.

Though sometimes a blind squirrel does manage to find an acorn:

The worse the West gets, the more conservatives will run this algorithm in their heads… It’s a coping technique…

Perhaps, but Mother Russia’s hiring Turcogooks for jobs that should go to their own young men– affordable семья formation– is a “coping technique” of her own. What are young Russian men doing that is so much more important?

Or are they just demanding too much pay?

How would I know and why would I care? The same questions could be asked of you. That’s my point: the worse things get here at home, the more some people will cling to faraway incidents like these.

Boomers gonna boom. They were terrified that some of that inheritance might actually reach their third wife’s kids! The nerve of Covid, robbing them of the best years of their life!

How does Sweden compare to other countries that are not Islands like NZ and Australia?

So Covid is over, but deaths are running at 400K per year (15%) more than the 2018-2019 pre-covid baseline.

No, they are not.

I just laid the numbers out for you in a way any intelligent 6th grader ought to be able to grasp … but then you parrot this bogus–completely bogus–idea that American deaths should be the same as in 2018-2019. That’s just utter nonsense for reasons that are both a) obvious and b) that I just explained.

The birth cohorts in the late 50s where about 4 million. In addtion we’ve had massive immigration bringing in more people–in those ages and spread through the adult cohorts. There are 330 million+ people. You can do some simple back of the envelope and realize that US deaths must–well baring some crazy breakthrough in life extension–rise to 4 million+ a year over the next couple decades. 2018/19 is not some “baseline” for all time. It’s not even a “baseline” for 2022.

Here’s are some back of the envelope, but reasonable baselines–for the last few years, just projecting what was going on:
2020 — 2,90o,000
2021 — 2,955,000
2022 — 3,010,000

2020 — 480K excess deaths
2021 — 500K excess deaths
2022 — 260K excess deaths

Anyone telling you there are 15% excess deaths now–which there indeed were during 2020-21–is perpetrating a fraud.

And no covid is not “over”. It had dialed way back but is still killing lots of extra people. (The CDC lists 244K, though some of those will of course not be covid deaths but other issues were covid was merely an aggravating factor or simply around.) And until some further medical breakthrough covid is never going to be “over”. Just like the flu is never “over”.

The 2022 excess? Spitballing:
#1 — the majority: covid deaths, old/sickly folks pushed over the edge by covid infection
#2 — deaths from worse health due to previous covid infection and/or the vax
#3 — deaths from just generally shittier life in the USA post-pandemic/St.George OD; more drug use/overdoses, more obesity, more traffic accidents, more murders, more alienation

This is not complicated. We–well Fauci and Daszak and the Bat girl–introduced a new pathogen, which has probably peeled back a couple of years of life expectancy (from the roughly 10 year gain during my lifetime).

Note: I don’t at all discount the covid vax causing some of this. It almost certainly is. (My default “common sense” take: vax is bad, covid infection is worse. One hijacks your cells to make a bunch of spike proteins. The other hijacks your cells to make a bunch of spike proteins … on viruses that then go and hijack more of your cells to make more spike proteins on viruses which hijack more of your cells. …)

Vaccines are basically almost always “bad for you”. People take them to mitigate something that is even worse for you. (They did crazy innoculation/exposure in the old days that had results like 2% death rate … because they were facing things like smallpox or yellow fever that would kill 15-30%.)

But … you have to show that the vax is in the net negative. (Or that there’s some compelling scientific reason for it to be worse than infection.) I.e. that people getting vaxed is worse for them. And that does not mean “more vaxed people” or “relatively more vaxxed people” dying. We know vaccination–quite reasonably–skews old/less-healthy. It has to be age and health status adjusted data that shows vaccination is worse than not. And even then … you want to compare both people who then got covid and those who did not. I.e. we assume getting the vax is worse for you than not … if you don’t get covid. But we assume everyone will eventually be exposed, so the real issue is the full life cycle. (At least in 2021, getting the vax was highly beneficial. People who did not had a far higher hospitalization and death rates.) But whether that is still the case? Do not know. It could be that the vax is sufficiently worthless against current covid, that the lives saved in 2021, and being cancelled out by lives lost down the road from a now worthless vaccine. All this requires carefully parsing through the data.

But most of the “it’s the vax!” people fail even the most basic sanity checks–super simple stuff like what should be the “baseline” deaths to compare to in a nation with a rapidly expanding elderly population. If you can’t “do the math” … your opinion is worthless.

This is murder.

Thanks jews.

Proud Boys are FEDs as well, as are “Oath Keepers”, Antifa, et al.

Straight out of the Theatrical Production group underneath Langley HQ.

If they’re in the news, they’re fake.

They’re not smarter; they have a narrow technical skillet and can’t balance risk-return because they’re just getting free money from Uncle Sugar.

It’s important to also remember that Australia went that hard because the benefits of such a policy were so much greater.
Australia was cut off from the world before Covid made it there ….. it wasn’t until late 2020 that they even had any serious outbreaks.

Altai, you are CLUELESS.

I’m Australian, and as such am aware that we had huge numbers of inbound international tourists (many of which were no doubt infected from Covid) in the months leading up to the first lockdown in late March 2020, not to mention large numbers of foreign students from places like China where Covid is known to have been widely circulating in early 2020.

To cap things off we had this event:

https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/aboard-the-ruby-princess-how-one-cruise-spawned-a-covid-19-outbreak-20200323-p54d2f.html

That’s right, the Ruby Princess cruise ship docked in Sydney with the WORLD’S WORST cruise ship outbreak of Covid (more cases and more deaths than the much publicised Diamond Princess out of Yokohama Japan).

And what did our state government do when the ship docked in Sydney ?

The few dozen passengers that had obvious symptoms were set aside and treated, but the remainder of the near 3000 passengers were IMMEDIATELY released into the community.
Taken from the article above:

“We got off the ship so fast, they didn’t even look at our passports,” said Janet Dixon-Hughes, who found herself standing out on the footpath with her daughter and 95-year-old mother half an hour before her husband was due to collect them ….

END RESULT: Covid quickly spread throughout the community. Most of us got it, we got over it in no time (after all, WE KNOW FOR A FACT that all variants* of Covid are no more lethal than seasonal flu), and we thus got natural immunity – hence the low fatality rate in Australia before the toxic clot shots were introduced.

(*The more lethal strain of virus that the Apartheid Israeli state/ZOG infected Iran with, may well have been more dangerous, but certainly what the rest of the world got was akin to seasonal flu).

Fast forward to 2021 and the alleged Covid deaths went ballistic AFTER THE INTRODUCTION of the experimental mRNA gene therapies that masquerade as Covid vaccines.
Open up the link below and scroll down to the graph labelled ‘Total Coronavirus Deaths in Australia’:

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/australia/

Run your mouse pointer on the orange line in the graph for the first half of 2021 (a time when very few in Australia had received the Covid jabs), and see for yourself that:

IN THE WHOLE EFF’N COUNTRY, THERE WAS ONLY ONE (1) RECORDED COVID DEATH in that 6 month period.

The vaxx rollout in Australia was many months later than in the U.S. It was not until the second half of 2021 that a significant number of Aussies had been vaxxed.
And what happened thereafter ?

As you can see from the graph, Aussies started dropping like flies and there was a MULTI-THOUSAND FOLD INCREASE in alleged* Covid deaths after the vaxx rollout.

I say ‘alleged’ because this was the time when the harmless Covid variants like Omicron were circulating (not that the earlier variants were particularly harmful), so we know that Covid didn’t kill them.

It is CLEAR that the jabs were responsible for the exponential increase in fataliies.

You go on to write:

Australia was also able to do things like cut Sydney off from Melbourne ….. there not being …… a fairly high density continuum of people living between cities making outbreaks faster to spread. There is just desert expanse ….

This is yet further proof of how clueless you are.

The are NO DESERTS on Australia’a east coast and the south-east of the continent.
Between Sydney and Melbourne there is FERTILE FARMLAND and it’s dotted with numerous townships along the way – most of which are small but sprinkled with more than a few medium-large sized towns like Goulburn, Albury etc.

You also write:

Australia actually had a pretty good chance of short and hard lockdowns followed by lax periods working and it pretty much did.

The fact of the matter is: LOCKDOWNS NEVER WORKED, whether in the short or long format.

We knew that in REAL TIME – we need only have listened to the Great Barrington Declaration signatories ( Kulldorff, Gupta, Bhattacharya) as I did, to know that.
Lockdowns caused far more collateral damage (ie: deaths, mental disorders, economic and societal disruption), than any infinitesimal benefit they may have had attributed to them.

Only a brain dead slavish mask wearing Socialist distancer adherent of the Covid tyranny doesn’t acknowledge that, in light of what we now know.

Bottom Line: Altai, it’s evident that you’ve swallowed all the B.S from the corrupt American MSM that claimed Australia had few Covid deaths initially because of our ‘harsh’ lockdowns.
That was pure B.S.
Australia has six states and two territories and ONLY the state of Victoria (not even our most populous state) had harsh lockdowns for most of the period (March 2020 – mid 2021).
I live in NSW, the most populous state, and other than for a few weeks in late March/early April 2020 when schools and non-essential businesses were closed down, the rest of the time EVERYTHING WAS OPEN AND RUNNING AS NORMAL.

Football stadiums were open and tens of thousands were sitting cheek to jowl in close proximity – and next to no one was wearing a mask.

OUTCOME: The state of Victoria, the LOCKDOWN STATE, recorded over 80% of the Covid deaths for the whole country for the first 18 months of this scamdemic.

The other five states and two territories had in AGGREGATE, less than 200 deaths.
That’s not a typo. That’s LESS THAN TWO HUNDRED (200) Covid deaths for the first 18 months of the Covid Psyop.
That’s because the state of Victoria adopted U.S style chicanery in counting deaths WITH Covid as deaths FROM Covid.
The other states were more honest and, for the most part, wrote the ACTUAL CAUSE OF DEATH on death certificates, unlike in the U.S.

In the rest of Australia outside of Victoria, we were free to mingle, socialise out in the sunshine and thus had ample virus destroying SUNSHINE working to boost our Vitamin D levels.
To the extent that some of us had this harmless virus called Covid, we transmitted it to others, they quickly got over it, and we all had natural herd immunity in no time.

Then came the toxic clot shots and …. tens of thousands of Aussies have paid with their lives for being gullible enough to have taken it.
And, not coincidentally, when the vaxx was rolled out in mid 2021, this was the time when Australia wide lockdowns were introduced, and thus in all states people were forced to hibernate in their damp and dingy basements, away from immune system enhancing sunshine and outdoor activities.
ie: people were doing the exact opposite of what they should’ve been doing – hence another reason for the deterioration in health outcomes.

Altai, I’m guessing from your uninformed remarks, that you’re vaxxed and boostered to the nth degree because you’re an obsequious follower of all edicts from the ‘wise government overlords’.

“it looks like total excess deaths from all causes (covid, myocarditis, murders, landslides, cancer, meteorite strikes, whatever, in March-April 2023 were down to about 1% over the 2015-2019 baseline projection”

Yeah, though some of that’s just “harvesting effect” which is disproportionately from all those anti-vaxxer loons who did the current employees of the CDC a favor by dying of COVID back during the epidemic, thereby sparing anyone the bother of tallying them up in what would have been their duly appointed dates with the Grim Reaper had they not opted to treat themselves via Facebook memes.

That’s why the anti-vaxxers were cheering on the public health programs in places like — I kid you not — Romania and Bulgaria, whose high rates of tobacco usage and shoddy vaccination rates (and large death tolls during the epidemic) led to an even greater post-epidemic reduction. It’s a much a smaller reduction than the cumulative lives lost during the epidemic, but with the anti-vaxxers it’s always heads-they-win-tails-everyone-else-loses. Oh, why can’t we all be lucky enough to enjoy the medical care of the typical Bulgarian and Romanian? I’m guessing the flood of people from Germany and America to the health clinics of Sofia and Bucharest must be just non-stop.

Yeah, such a shame Sailer never bought into any of that iron-clad logic.

But, as bad as the West is, the BRICs are nowhere near ready-for-prime-time:

Entertaining, “Go ‘jiks!” … but basically the same cheap labor shilling shit as in the USA.

As I’ve pointed out to the Putin lovers, the guy is in no sense a decent a leader for Russia. Even before his latest stupid war, he had
— bombed the shit out of Chechnya in order to keep Chechens *in* Russia–the exactly opposite of the Russian people’s interest

— allowed millions of illegals from the ‘stans to flow into Russia … so much so that the muzzies are able to fill Moscow’s streets to do their passive aggressive butt in the air, “we own this joint” shtick.

Obviously, these pipelines to China should be being built by Russian young men, earning high wages which they can use back home (in European Russia) to romance Russian gals, get married, buy homes, knock up their wives and start building families. The good stuff.

Instead, Putin’s drafting them to kill Ukrainian boys…. and importing Muslims to build pipelines.

Vlad W. Bush.

1866-1868 was the period of Carpetbaggers, Northerners who went down South to “reconstruct” the Southerners, and pad their northern bank accounts.

“We are from the Federal Government, and we are here to help you.”

“Run Forrest, run.”

Altai, you are CLUELESS.

Our question is, is “Altai3” the same commenter as “Altai” and “Altai2”?

In the rest of Australia outside of Victoria, we were free to mingle, socialise out in the sunshine and thus had ample virus destroying SUNSHINE working to boost our Vitamin D levels.
To the extent that some of us had this harmless virus called Covid, we transmitted it to others, they quickly got over it, and we all had natural herd immunity in no time.

Wasn’t so harmless in Mexico, which had lots of sun and lots of COVID deaths. It’s more likely that the lockdown worked but you can’t ever admit to being wrong so you made up this BS explanation.

Then came the toxic clot shots and …. tens of thousands of Aussies have paid with their lives for being gullible enough to have taken it.

Every time I ask an anti-vaxxer for evidence, they never provide it. All they ever have is unsupported assertions and name-calling.

The fact that no government will merely match up the vaccination records to death records to rule out the vax hypothesis.

They do, which shows that anti-vaxxer idiots like yourself are more likely to die.

Hey, but check out the mortality rate of Filipino scooter riders between 2020-2022. Now that’s a scoop!

Filipino scooter riders, that’s a new one. Anti-vaxxer idiots were predicting mass death in America. But people can look around and see none of that around them, so anti-vaxxers have to make up stories about mass death in foreign countries.

That is pretty damn horrific.

The logical conclusions:

— covid, being new to people’s immune system, pushed a lot of people (about a 1 million Americans), mostly older and/or less healthy over the edge in 2020, 2021.
— now most people either exposed and/or vax’d and the virus itself mutated, covid is killing far fewer people …..

These are in fact ILLOGICAL conclusions.

Scroll up to my last comment and see some actual logic (in the case of Australia’s Covid stats), and how there was NEXT TO NO ONE DYING FROM COVID until after the vaxx rollout – and then things went ballistic.

CONCLUSION: Deaths did indeed jump up in 2020 in the U.S in the first year of the scamdemic.
That’s because countless thousands were murdered by your corrupt health system (scores of thousands died from VILI – Ventilator Induced Lung Injuries).
Additionally, it’s estimated that countless thousands of elderly in nursing homes were neglected and died from lack of nutrition/dehydration and many more were euthanased with large doses of Midazolam.
Remember also, that 2020 was the year of mass tramatisation, as the dumbed down masses were scared out of their wits with the government propaganda.
No doubt many more excess deaths in that year were recorded from more heart attacks/strokes/excess suicides, all of which can be attributed to the relentless scare mongering and isolation brought about from lockdowns/shutting down non-essential businesses that bankrupted many and forced many to take their own lives.

Simply put, seeing as the perpetrators of the Covid Psyop knew there would be large numbers of excess deaths once the vaxx was rolled out, it was imperative that they killed off hundreds of thousands in 2020 so as to make subsequent years appear not so bad in comparison*.

This was yet another sleight-of-hand employed by the evil miscreants (ZOG) that perpetrated the Covid Psyop, which went over your head ‘Dad’.
Next time, try to think critically and not uncritically repeat all the MSM B.S you’ve been force fed.

(*Absorb carefully the following important thing I’m about to write:

If U.S authorities could kill of the bulk of those on the precipice of death in 2020, ie: those with devastated immune systems, those with the most severe life threatening comorbidities, the very old, then it STANDS TO REASON THAT THERE WOULD BE VERY LITTLE LOW HANGING FRUIT to kill off in subsequent years.

In other words,the mortality figures for 2021 and 2022 should have been WELL DOWN from that recorded in 2020, and been on par with pre scamdemic figures – or even LOWER.

The fact mortality numbers for 2021 and 2022 are similar to 2020 tells us that YOUNGER/HEALTHIER PEOPLE were dying in greater numbers post vaxx.

And, pray tell, WHY do you think that is ‘Dad’ ?

As I’ve pointed out to the Putin lovers …. Instead, Putin’s drafting them to kill Ukrainian boys ….

Ahhhh, the pieces of the puzzle all seem to be fitting together nicely.
This explains why you’re a minion of Big Pharma with your advocacy of the toxic clot shots and the Covid tyranny we were all subjected to.

It’s now apparent that you’re a shill for the small hats and their orchestration of the Ukraine proxy war against Mother Russia as well.

FACT: Putin did everything humanly possible to avoid this conflict, but ZOG was having none of it.
ZOG demanded war so war it was going to be.

‘NutherDad’, if you’re so ignorant as to believe the ZOG propaganda in the MSM that Putin is the bad guy in this war, that explains why you’re stupid enough to believe that face masks/Socialist distancing/lockdowns and the ZOG owned Big Pharma clot shots would be our salvation.

You are a dumb f*ck indeed.

Australia’s Heritage of Slavery, Jim Crow, and Redlining Strikes Again

Whereas Belgium’s heritage of landlocked colonialism is still paying dividends:

Who are we supposed to trust?

Maybe nobody. But certainly not people (like Anthony Fauci) who think you should not be permitted to even hear or read other opinions and who work to suppress them.

Homeopathic frauds? “Traditional medicine” grifters? Screaming 300 pound internet antivaxxers like Alex Jones? Anonymous 90 IQ conspiracy theorist commenters like the ones here afraid of “mRNA vaccines” who don’t even know what mRNA stands for?

Sure, anybody who has reservations or questions about memory Ribonucleic Acid (you jerk) vaccines is on a par with homeopaths and snake-oil salesman.

Science isn’t perfect. It makes mistakes, sometimes royally screwing things up. It’s still the best method we’ve got.

Yeah, science is pretty good. But that isn’t what we got over the last three years. We got “The Science” (TM). Scientism – a cult – science turned into some kind of received religion.

And pick a godda**ed screen name if you want to discourse here.

Same guy. Consistent (mis)use of spurious apostrophe’s is the tell. Yuk yuk.

These companies have so much legacy IP, founders’ bias, and cash flow that nothing their idiot managers do even matters. They are as superflous as Hapsburg aristocrats.

OT: They found Julian Sands’ body.

Did he have Covid?

That’s my point: the worse things get here at home, the more some people will cling to faraway incidents like these.

My “point” isn’t “clinging”, it’s that almost every place on earth is in some demographic crisis, though those crises differ. Who is on deck to replace us? Yes, the major league players have degraded, but the AAA level is even worse: China is said to be the first country to grow old before growing rich. Russia is imploding. Indians can’t wait to leave. Brazil has become the mulato inzoneiro of her most famous song. (Mexico is likewise a mestizo intrigoso.)

Eastern Europe and East Asia aren’t self-inundating with immigrants, but also have the world’s lowest birthrates. Their demographic solstice is here. Korea, the best story of the lot, is still ⅓ communist.

Face it, the whole world sucks. The West is still the best, but only by default.

The fact that no government will merely match up the vaccination records to death records to rule out the vax hypothesis.

They do, which shows that anti-vaxxer idiots like yourself are more likely to die.

Who are you, dumbass? And what’s your source for this disinformation?

I’ll give Steve the benefit of the doubt and assume you are some Deep State troll. But if you are actually an authentic person who is attracted to this site, it kind of proves my point. Steve has to decide if he wants to be a critical thinking truth teller or just a politician who triangulates his positions to appeal to a wide audience of conformists morons. I might as well read the New York times for all the insights Steve has to offer when it comes to government perfidy.

it looks like total excess deaths from all causes (covid, myocarditis, murders, landslides, cancer, meteorite strikes, whatever, in March-April 2023 were down to about 1% over the 2015-2019 baseline projection

So what you are saying is that (non-covid) excess deaths declined after people stopped taking the vaccine. And you see this as proof that the vaccine was not the cause of those deaths. Occam’s butter knife in action.

I am not familiar with the Australian case, but in pretty much every other locale, Lebanese are among the most civilized and successful immigrant/diaspora groups. Mostly Christians not surprisingly. It’s really remarkable how they’ve thrived in the West, Arabian peninsula, Latin America. West Africa, East Africa, etc. while their own country is a fiasco yet not without considerable charms.

Not saying we should welcome them, but if you have to associate with them in Dubai or America, you could have it much worse.

next year’s Olympics in– where is it, again?

Paris. I have a bet with a friend whether they’ll fix Notre Dame in time. I say no.

Remember the IOC considered 2024 and 2028 at the same time, and awarded the latter to Los Angeles. I speculated at the time that they probably did that, instead of the other way around, because they didn’t want to see President Trump grinning on the podium at the opening ceremony. It would be a great irony if they got that anyway in 2028.

Still, I wish the Olympics would just go away, collapsing under their own frivolity, waste, and corruption. Or at least ensure that only wealthy dictatorships host them in the future. Put ‘em all in China, UAE, Qatar, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Equatorial Guinea, etc. where they belong.

Science isn’t perfect. It makes mistakes,

“Science” is the process of applying logic to data. “Science” is not a group of authority figures or their consensus beliefs.

“Science” doesn’t make mistakes. People make mistakes in collecting data or applying logic to that data. Sorry to be pedantic. But if you use words too loosely you end up with bad logical fallacies — like the MSM party line that treats “science” as nothing more than an appeal to authority.

She should stick to shot-putting… But her persistence is admirable.

How about they put one of those land acknowledgement plaques on 10 Downing Street.

2 comments so far. Both hostile, kovid kultist rants. Perhaps a HA sockpuppet?

Oh, I’m not talking one way or the other *why* the Klan existed, just that it did.

Reconstruction ended in 1876, but I think the Klan was long gone before then.

It left such an impression to some that it even appears as the bad guy in one of the original Sherlock Holmes stories, written and set decades later.

Right, but the “Klans” of that era were just small local groups not connected to each other, not at all like the huge national organization of the 1920’s.

It’s more likely that the lockdown worked but you can’t ever admit to being wrong so you made up this BS explanation.

You’re not very attentive, are you ? Pretty much what I’ve come to expect from vaxxed-to-the-max morons.

So let me repeat it for you again:

1) Before the vaxx rollout there were LESS THAN 1000 Covid deaths in Australia (this despite the fact that Covid had already spread widely throughout the nation).

The state of Victoria (not our most populous state), had OVER EIGHTY PERCENT (80%) of the recorded deaths in the first 18 months of the scamdemic.
Victoria was also the state that was lockdowned for much of that time, had the harshest Covid tyranny, police brutality on its citizenry, toughest travel curfews/mask mandates etc.

The other five states and two territories only had short lived lockdowns for a few weeks in late March/early April 2020, and then everything pretty much went back to normal up until mid 2021.
Yet these five states and two territories IN AGGREGATE, had less than 200 Covid deaths between them.

Got it now Simian Raider ?

THERE WERE NO LOCKDOWNS OF SUBSTANCE IN MOST OF AUSTRALIA UP UNTIL mid 2021.
And in that totally unrestricted part of Australia where we were free to mingle, attend sports fixtures in capacity crowd stadiums etc (ie: the majority of it), there were VERY FEW COVID DEATHS RECORDED.

So, when you say ‘the lockdowns worked’, perhaps they did work from your Talmudic perspective.
ie: lots of goys died where the lockdowns were long lasting and tyrannically applied.

But from a humane standpoint, the lockdowns were a DISASTER everywhere on the planet they were applied.

You speak of ‘B.S explanations’ but I supplied you CONCRETE FACTS.
I supplied the Worldometer graphs that show ONLY ONE (1) SINGLE M-F’er died in the whole of Australia in the first six months of 2021. ie: before the vaxx was rolled out in earnest.

Of course, concurrent with the rollout of the clot shots in mid 2021, the whole country went into lockdown and, needless to say, people started dropping like flies in the latter half of 2021 and into 2022.

As for this asinine remark of yours:

Every time I ask an anti-vaxxer for evidence, they never provide it. All they ever have is unsupported assertions …

Are you claiming that the Worldometers data is unsupported ? If so, those spike proteins are doing more damage to your brain that I’d imagined.

The fact is, I am the one supplying the hard facts.
It is YOU Simian Raider that is propagating the B.S. But typical leftist Socialist Distancer that you are, you’ll never admit you were dead wrong.

You should self euthanase yourself for the good of society*.
(*Oops, my bad. I forgot that you’re already fully vaxxed. It seems you’re well on the way to an early demise).

When people started to discover Nayib Bukele (the leader of El Salvador who put a stop to decades of gang murders by simply building a really big prison and arresting everybody with gang tattoos) I marveled that Lebanese could be so good at running a country, so long as it’s not their own.

On that front, Covid retarded their agenda: it increased white relative fertility, weakened and impoverished leftist urban areas, and decreased migration.

The Covid lockdowns destroyed large numbers of small mom and pop businesses. Small independent business owners are generally conservative, the type of people who would oppose open borders and race replacement. These are not people who you want to harm. Benefitting from the lockdowns was leftist big tech, since people were forced to stay at home and stare at screens. Benefitting from the mandatory vaccinations was big pharma, a major political contributor to corrupt leftist politicians like Biden, along with equally corrupt neocon Republican politicians. Both these groups are on the open borders side. The epidemic was also used to justify more mail in voting, also designed to benefit and help the political establishment in its effort to dislodge Trump from office.

The state that came out of the whole Covid affair best was Florida. Adjusted for age distribution, Florida had a death rate at about the national average while suffering much less economic harm and loss of personal freedom than most other states. People voted with their feet in droves during the epidemic and moved out of liberal states like California and New York to Florida. DeSantis was against the authoritarian excesses that took place during the epidemic and is now against the current open borders fanaticism. He understands both are aimed at ordinary productive Americans.

I remember gum cigarettes, not candy, Mr.Tooth, both light green and pink.

These gum cigarettes were not a gateway drug to real cigarettes, but they were a gateway drug to more gum… and candy… more sugar, which can be as bad for you as cigarettes, come to think of it.

(How about all candy bars and packages being required to have big pictures of lower leg amputation surgery in progress due to diabetes on them? That might fly in Australia, mate.)

Are we still supposed to be getting the shot? How often?

Most people in my Dunbar number didn’t get the jabs; we’re all still here, btw. The ones who did felt so ill after the second poke they said never again.

Yet another way the US and Australia are different:

It would be diffficult to envisage an Australian immigration restrictionist movement having prominent leaders with foreign accents as is the case with Vdare in the US

Outstanding!

LOL! It’s easy to follow the words of Mr. Brimelow if you pay close attention. If you miss two words or more, the whole rest of that sentence is pretty much lost! Kudos to his work and the whole operation though.

I’m so glad I’m an uber-male-style shopper. Go in, head to the stuff I intend to buy, and GTFO. If these displays are not near the cases of water, fruit, socks, cat food, stationary, or rubic’s cubes, I would have no idea this stuff is going on.

Now – back to the slightly O/T subject here – when Target had the idiotic floor stickers and stretched out shopping cart lines, that’s when I was upset.

There’s still one lady at a register who wears a thick face mask. She’s very friendly to pass the time and make her job better, but I couldn’t understand the half of it! I had to tell her, so she took it off to talk to me… Whatever!

There were 130,000 KKK members in Massachusetts alone in 1925.

“Few individuals, including Tague, likely believed Simmons’s statement.
Fewer still would have anticipated the KKK’s astounding rise in New
England in the years to follow. According to the Washington Post, from the
Klan’s formation in each individual state until it peaked in 1925, it admitted
21,321 members in Rhode Island, 65,590 in Connecticut, 75,000 in New
Hampshire, 80,301 in Vermont, 130,780 in Massachusetts, and 150,141 in
Maine.2
KKK membership remains difficult to determine with precision,
but even if the actual numbers in the New England states were a fraction—
say, one-tenth—of the Washington Post’s reported figures, they would
nonetheless be phenomenal for the region. Each of the six New England
states had witnessed significant Catholic immigration in the late nineteenth
and early twentieth centuries, much of it consisting of French Canadians
from Québec, and the Ku Klux Klan took notice.”

Vancouver had been dubbed HongCouver long ago, TTTT. No, they are not physically destructive. Though not as friendly, in my locale, as your natives, they are easy to get along with.

The problem is in the numbers. 1% Chinese/Vietnamese/Korean/etc. people assimilated well into American society, or at some point even 5% is not a big problem. However, in large numbers, people a) have no reason to assimilate* and b) They import a whole ‘nother culture. Along with that come the problems, like the CCP having police stations or having civil wars due to the importation of Sunnis and Shites. Who the hell needs that? Who the hell asked for that?

Even if the Aussies and Canadians, so proud of picking the best people, did pick the “right” people, they’d still be changing their countries (barring Englishmen/Americans/White S. Africans only – even then, it’d be a slight change). Were the Australian people and the Canadian people asked about their preference about this?

I don’t mean to sound like I’m arguing against you, TTTT. I just follow the whole immigration invasion thing very closely – VDare reader for about 2 decades.
.

* I’d do the same. Were I to pull a Fred Reed and high-tail it to a gated community in Ole Mexico (Uruguay’d be my choice), I’m sure I would rather hang out with American ex-pats and live like an American as much as possible.

Americans are too confident that merely owning guns can protect you from a tyrannical state.

Steve, I a posted a comment over two hours ago, and another posted over 10 hours ago, and they’re both ‘Awaiting Moderation’.

I’m curious, how many more hours before this moderation period is over ?
Is it normal practice in your threads for moderation to take this long ?

“Are we still supposed to be getting the shot? How often?”

Once a year if you’re not particularly at risk, twice a year if you are. Check with your doctor to see what side of that divide you’re on (it’s admittedly a judgment call at this point, but that’s how it goes). And don’t get your diapers in a twist over the fact that the link is from USA Today — the article does include a link to the Yale study on which the conclusion is based, so you can peruse both before returning to Facebook and Twitter and your carefully curated list of anti-vaxxer quacks and hacks.

Steve has to decide if he wants to be a critical thinking truth teller

Steve made his pro-vaccine views clear at the beginning of COVID vaccination but got a lot of blowback and has been silent since that time, presumably assuming that idiots like yourself would quickly forget his stance.

Certainly he’s not as brave as someone like Anatoly Karlin or Richard Spencer, who are willing to tell their followers when they’re acting like a bunch of morons.

But if you are actually an authentic person who is attracted to this site, it kind of proves my point

I (was) attracted to this site as a place where intelligent people could critique the multiculti madness. It used to be possible to do that without a thousand morons coming on and calling people Deep State Conspiracy Members if they don’t believe these tall tales about how six billion Filipino Bike Boys died in the Vaccinocaust.

a politician who triangulates his positions to appeal to a wide audience of conformists morons

Let me guess: you had no interest in anti-vax, a movement that has existed for a long time, before 2021, when you suddenly decided you were a believer. You’re only saying this crap because other people started saying it.

Evangelicals are only marginally Christian and 100 % heretic. What they believe does not matter.

I agree with you wholeheartedly here and now, AD. That’s especially with regard to Governor DeSantis, a guy I didn’t even know existed until his great pushback against the Kung Flu Totalitarianism 3 years ago, with his understanding and use of Federalism. (It’s one more difference between him and the Donald. DeSantis has and understands principles.)

That’s here and now. As I recall, you were NOT one of the anti-Totalitarianism commenters on here wrt the Kung Flu until much later in the whole PanicFest. I’m not gonna go look up comments, but during that 2 or 3 month period in which 75% of the posts were about “we should do this”, “maybe let’s make people do that”, “masks should be made in America” (well, they should, but not the point), “how about this?”, “Look at what’s going on at the ski resorts in Italy”*, you were into all that. By “into all that”, I mean, I don’t recall any cries of “lighten the hell up” and “let’s just leave people alone” from you at that time.

I don’t expect an apology from anyone – it’s iSteve’s blog, he’s a force for good, and everyone makes mistakes. Maybe a small, “well, about my listening to and believing every back-and-forth piece of advice and admonishment from Dr. Fauci and those EXPERTS, I may have been, cough, cough, slightly too, cough, naive, cough, and subservient, cough….”

.

* I get it. iSteve notices interesting trends, and he likes analyzing them. However, all that, for 3 months running, was for the purpose of “What do we do? What do we do?” “WE” didn’t need to be told to do ANYTHING. That is even it it WERE the Black Death 2.0, which we all agree (NOW) that it wasn’t. I and everyone else who has a survival instinct would have known what to do, were it Black Death 2.0.

“So what you are saying is that (non-covid) excess deaths declined after people stopped taking the vaccine.”

No. Try and keep up. There is no differentiation between covid and non-covid in those excess death statistics. That’s just you piling on your wishful-thinking. The whole point of focusing on excess death stats in the first place was to get past the just-a-flu-bro accusations about how the alarming bump in ALL deaths was solely due to motorcycle accidents being wrongly classified as COVID complications in the pathologists’ cause-of-death reports, and games with PCR thresholds, etc. Your memory seems unduly spotty — long COVID, maybe?

Comparisons between vaxxed and unvaxxed individuals still show that that the former do less dying than the latter, but some of that is undoubtedly due to the fact that the latter cohort includes people not particularly concerned about their health in the first place, as well as those stricken with the potentially fatal flaw of being anti-vaxx idiots.

— covid, being new to people’s immune system, pushed a lot of people (about a 1 million Americans), mostly older and/or less healthy over the edge in 2020, 2021.

It started a cull of the baby-boomers (and any remaining GGs), as many of us predicted. It is beginning to emerge – as was pointed out already in the Spring of 2020 by us “knuckleheads” (to use Steve’s appelation) – that a lot of those deaths were probably iatrogenic, i.e., they were themselves caused by the medical treatment those patients received (like aggressive use of ventilators).

the spike protein is bad for you and there are lingering negative health effects from having covid or having the vax for some people so death rates are still higher than pre-covid

Yeah, so maybe the idea of a vaccine that causes your own body to create those spike proteins (untethered to any virus particle, so that they’re smaller and can get it into lots of nooks and crannies in your body)…………………….wasn’t such a hot idea.

We could of course talk about something critical like the deliberate genocide of white peoples, white nations, Western civilization by mass immivasion.

What we saw in 2020-2022 was the deliberate implementation of medical martial law, the deliberate fostering of a weird society-wide OCD level of disease craziness that split families and isolated people, the deliberate coordination or the state with big business (the literal definition of fascism, according to Mussolini) for the empowerment and enrichment of an oligarch super-class. It was all done by the same people who push the white genocide you talk about, and it was all done for the same purpose. That was – and is – a big deal, and I’m not done talking about it.

Hahaha! I had to read that one three times. Also sure a geek somewhere has put together a narrow, technical skillet.

Seriously, in all these debates over GOF research nobody seems to recall that we already have precedent for a government scientist releasing weaponized anthrax to get more funding and status for his department.

Would ideological partisans within the bureaucracy and its patronage networks use NBC weapons on deplorables? Of course they would. If you’re an ideologue whose opponents are #literallyHitler, killing meemaw, destroying the planet, you’ll go all-out Twelve Monkeys.

Sorry. I’m not taking your mystery bug-juice that provides no public health benefit beyond savings to Social Security. (It’s actually more like an allergy shot). I’m not wearing your sheetrock-hanger’s mask either.

(This is what rational, scientifically-informed behavior looks like):

The whole point of focusing on excess death stats in the first place was to get past the just-a-flu-bro accusations about how the alarming bump in ALL deaths was solely due to motorcycle accidents….

Yeah, it was only partially due to that. And that is supposed to make me trust the medical establishment more? The fact that some medical examiner looked at the mangled corpse of an accident victim or looked at a gunshot victim or someone who broke their neck in a fall and said “Yep, another COVID death!” hardly adds to their credibility.

Correction. That came out rather scrambled. It provides no public health benefit and drains Social Security by keeping 80-year old diabetics around for another year.

A Candidian friend told me years ago that Persian immigrants drove a giant spike in heroin trade.

With the Viet influx that I don’t recall, the Japanese govt. sent all of tens of thousands landing here to sucker places, mainly Candidia and the U.S.A.

Remnant population in Japan, just over 4,000.

I do recall the Iranians, though, the main things I saw were trading in counterfeit telephone cards for use in public telephones, but am sure that was only the tip of it.

I met an ex-Tudeh member, he was a good person, but most were criminal types.

As with the Viets, the government found sucker countries on which to inflict the crimewave, in the case of the Iranians, mainly Candidia, partly U.S.A.

Not much later, a Japanese bureaucrat, Ogata Sadako, was made UNHCR. This was a point of pride in the media. To me, it was funny, keeping ‘refugees’ out is a great idea, but, really, why select a woman from Japan, which consistently refuses almost any asylum cases (and wisely, last year was about 200) as UNHCR?

The whole point of UNHCR at its foundation was as a vehicle for Jews to move anywhere in the English- and Spanish-speaking, and European spheres where they may like to go.

By the time Ogata was UNHCR, this had changed to using mass-population movements as a kind of attack-dog.

–

Well, we’ll always have Uruguay.

I dunno, but I really aim to check out Montevideo some time, just to know. I will end up in China again one more time, and I’m going to see what an uber-Orwellian society looks like, or not… I’ll report – on my blog exclusively. (Nah, nah…)

As to your point, Reg: All the demographic changes as far as total population numbers within most of the countries of the world would not be a bad thing in any way in the long run…. EXCEPT for the situations (whole Western World) in which there’s an immigration invasion to replace the people. Along with that, keeping in mind iSteve’s “World’s most important graph”, it won’t be good if Africa doesn’t stay on that one continent.

Thanks for engaging, but I sometimes wonder if they are open to reason or if this is yet another lost cause.

There’s now a giant covid-conspiracy right-wing ecosystem in a way that eugenic natalists and immigration patriots lack. That ecosystem overlaps with a variety of investment scams that use conspiracy talk to justify avoiding index funds and real estate and instead give money to crypto scams. The crypto scams plus the vitamin supplement scams are so profitable, rational voices like Steve’s are overwhelmed.

By the way, you make too much of a concession in conceding the covid vax may increase non-covid mortality. This is mind blowing when you first discover it:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-specific_effect_of_vaccines

We are discovering that vaccines have more and more positive effects beyond ameliorating a particular infection. The wiki article hasn’t even been updated to note the newest study showing the shingles vaccine reduces dementia. I have seen evidence showing lower non-covid mortality after taking the covid vax, but creating controls is going to be really hard so that’s still unknown.

“mail-in ballots looked like the way to do that so they were all in.”

It’s truly amazing to me you are still touting an obvious lie, that you willing to die in this hill of disinformation despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary. Because Jews or something.

But, by all means, please continue being an iSteve content generator on this front. Even he realizes—but dare not admit lest he loses his gravy train—that this “Trump lost because the election was stolen from him” narrative is a sham.

“Sorry. I’m not taking your mystery bug-juice…”

You do what you want, you bad-boy rebel, you. Grow a goatee, ride a Harley, tell the world how much you love Putin — whatever it takes to distract everyone from your under-endowed or saggy anatomy — but I suspect the girlies actually worth having around will be no more impressed by all that than they are by your obvious comb-over or your muscle car.

And if you don’t want to deal with the mystery-bug-juice, you’re more than free to instead deal with the mystery bugs that nature periodically spits out every century or so. Once the epidemic subsides, it’s your call either way. As noted, the latest data show that the bug juice is significantly less deadly than the bug itself, but feel free to skip the actual science and stick with the Facebook memes, black sheep Kennedys and the anti-vaxx “experts” who only get read because of their lock-step conformity to your prejudices. So much for the so-called rebels.

You are simply shilling Russian propaganda. The primary counter offensive has not yet begun. There have been preliminary Ukrainian efforts to retake their land. We shall see how that goes. Putin can end the war and the murder of Slavs. Regardless, Ukrainian soldiers and citizens are willing to die for their cause—sovereignty.

LOL. I have about as much need to be a “bad-boy rebel” as a CPA. But I am naturally skeptical of a “vaccine” pushed by an overweening global bureaucracy that has to be taken continually and does not suppress the virus.

Novel respiratory viruses appear every century or so and evolve into less virulent strains. The vaccines are perennially chasing and pushing them from behind, like the useless flu vaccine. Covid is basically the flu at this point, which we’ll all die of once we get old enough. I assume you get your flu shots every six months in addition to the Wuhan jab. You’ll still end up dying around age 80 – 82 from an opportunistic respiratory virus that turned into pneumonia.

This reminds me of the musk flavoured cigarette lollies sold here that used to be called “fags”. About a decade ago they had a name change. You can’t have kids sucking on a fag.
The bizarre thing about Victorians is that they voted their crooked premier back in. Clearly a bad case of Stockholm syndrome.
But the large numbers of immigrants being fined during covid there comes down to the big C word. Culture. They come to our country but don’t really want to blend in with the rest of the crowd. Can’t read or write English and don’t want to follow rules, so naturally there’s going to be a bit of friction. But the great thing is that while the cops are chasing and bashing the immigrants they’re ignoring the poor old white guy, which is a win-win situation.

>80-year old diabetics

What’s with anti-vaxxers on the internet thinking they’re the healthy ones? The anti-vaxxers I know IRL are slovenly people who weigh 300 pounds, trying and failing to lose it through fad diets. After all, taking health advice from YouTube streamers rather than doctors tends to produce poor outcomes in multiple ways.

I hope your kids don’t get you euthanized when you’re eighty years old and they want to get their hands on your house a year early.

I agree with you on the restriction of immigration, regardless of where they are coming from. We need a moratorium and a return to sender policy. If we must slit our own throats with imports, I’d rather eat sushi than the pavement. I feel the same for all western countries, get the invaders out.

I don’t believe foreign countries, in general, should own property in America; I’ve heard rumors about “some foreign company” buying up major utility companies in Texas and elsewhere. I have no idea if it’s true, but if it’s bad for America, I’m sure it’s happening. Strange things are occurring all over the place. How about chemtrails? Really? I laugh, and then we have a small overnight rain shower, and the next day, every bit of algae in my bird baths and wildlife water bowls is gone. No trace of algae whatsoever. I tried to accomplish that feat with bleach and scrubbers, but to no avail. I think this is odd. Everyone thinks I’m crazy.

It’s obvious that average citizens do not really get to decide anything for themselves. Fortunately, those in charge may have just overplayed their hand. I don’t know how you really feel about Trump, but because of his blasting away at CNN, et al, I went from suspecting the media was biased to knowing they are the most dangerous enemy we face, just slightly ahead of the Blacks!

Soldier on!

“naturally skeptical of a ‘vaccine’ pushed by an overweening global bureaucracy that has to be taken continually and does not suppress the virus.”

Ah, shifting the goalposts. Earlier, your idea of a slam-dunk case apparently consisted of buzzwords like “mystery bug juice” and “global bureaucracy” and appeals to jpegs of a guy in goggles and masks. Now you’ve upgraded to bogus claims about how a vaccine — which apart from reducing your likelihood of death also decreases the number of days you’re symptomatic with COVID — still doesn’t suppress it. That isn’t true, by the way; the vaccine is also backed by hard data in addition to being pushed by whatever global bureaucracy overlords reside under your bed and in your dreams. More to. the point, if the time you spend feverish and coughing and sneezing is reduced, then the spread of the virus is thereby suppressed, breakouts notwithstanding. As for “continually”, doctors have been prescribing annual flu shots for years (i.e. long before COVID) — I’ll bet the typical CPA’s health plan might just cover them at no charge or at least at a reduced rate — without pathetic little edgelords having to get up on a soap box and tell us that no one will make them continually take the “mystery bug juice”, and whatever other buzzwords they think will make them sound tough and cool. So LOL all you want, I’m just telling you your pathetically transparent schtick is not working.

Some of the comments, blaming “social hotspots” or so-called “clans”, appear tinged with racism: both are code words for immigrant groups.

Lol noticing is racist.

The problem for Team Vax is they can’t point to a big pile of young, otherwise healthy dead bodies and say “Unvaxed,” nor simultaneously point to a bunch of robust 80-year olds swinging for the fences and say “Vaxed.” The tranche of old, fat, immuno-compromised people getting a temporary antibiotic (dependent) wake-up call from the shot who might otherwise die that year instead of the next year is just too small. From a public health perspective it’s just not very effective. Again, we’d probably get the same results just banning corn syrup or making everybody lose 20 pounds. Between the bug juice and diet and exercise, I’ll just do diet and exercise. It is obviously horribly frustrating to you that I and millions of others who never bothered with your precious vax are still around.
