Generally speaking, I guess, if you ignore the millions on food stamps and unemployment, the businesses and livelihoods ruined and those that have passed away, due to 2 week quarantine with no treatment. We will get by, but it's pretty ugly for some people out there. I could go on, but be cheerful.

 

It amazes me the extent to which appearances and words have become more important than actual policies and actions. Leaves me speechless, and that is not easy.

 

Coulda fooled me, in the rare times I watch political news it always feels like dejavu from watching them as a kid.

Same bullshit, same attitude, same blatant lies and manipulation. Sometimes by the same people, no less.

 

True, the world is just as beautiful and at the same time horrific as it ever was. Plagues, wars, famines, oppression, and the like come and go with metronome regularity as they always have.

 

Here's from my local friends:

Left-Leaning Folks: At least Biden is trying to non-f**k the country.
Right-Leaning Folks: f**k you Biden, gas going up to $3/gallon. f**k Dems for raising my gas bill and punishing me.

Mainstream Media is a business...we all know that.

 

Indeed, American news is so boring now. But the world's a better place for that.

(I hope!)

 

On BBC News website, a video ad from Amazon pledging to be carbon neutral by 2040 — followed by news that Amazon admits that their drivers pee into bottles (which they had denied earlier).

 

In NL the vaccine shots with Astra-Zeneca are delayed again.

The vaccine is not mandatory. Guess what? All the gossip and fear spreading which comes down to "does it really work" is obstructing a campaign to return to pre-Covid-19 life.

Seriously, 2 years or more in this Covid-19 life and a big recession will hit everyone and recovery (especially economic) will become more difficult. This is the 21st century and we are privileged to have a vaccine so soon after a big outbreak.

Yet there are still people holding on to superstitions and old books because vague reasons and mystic revelations.

I do not want to pay the bill for the stupidity of spineless politicians and superstitious people, but I fear I will.

More coffee...

 

I got the full there is no covid, it's all a scam argument from a friend I haven't seen in a while.

Don't know how anyone can think this. Bottom line is that scams need beneficiaries, and none seems to be much benefitting from this alleged scam. Some pharma companies will add profit (but when don't they?). Yes, it may have been convenient for some governments to get people off their streets for a while (but when isn't it?). Yes, most governments and health authorities have totally failed to get to grips with what restrictions, when, and for how long, are/were appropriate --- and if this has cause anything, it is politically embarrassment, whether they admit it or not, to most.

Bezos has done well. Boris's friends in UK (and similar regimes, probably) have pocketed a few million for not doing much. But all that would have happened anyway.

There has been vast suffering, national, political, economic and personal, worldwide, yet this is all said to be a scam? I don't even begin to buy that.

My reality may be just as ill-informed. I have not, for instance, personally, lost any friend or family to covid. But I have no reason to think that that those who have are lying, and even less to think that those lies are part of some huge conspiracy.

But covid has been born into a world already running on fake news and lies.

It's a mad world. We need inoculating against more than just covid!

 

This is a disturbing piece by Bari Weiss. Has anyone personally encountered this kind of madness at school, work or elsewhere?

I read about the parents who came from a communist country. I came from a communist country and I can tell you that comparing to the level of indoctrination in North American educations system the communists schools were science oriented, free of indoctrination, except for the falsification of the history of Soviet Union and some spin on polish history. But the teachers were doing their best keep it clean.
When I came to Canada 30 years ago I my son went to school I was stunned by how ideological were the teachers. Of course there were good, dedicated, free of bias teachers as well and my son was lucky to meet many of them.
But it was nothing comparing to a methodical subtracting from human knowledge, literally dismantling the foundation of the Western Civilization piece by piece, and prosecution of ideologically impure. Concordia university "scientific" team is working on "decolonization of light". Both electromagnetic wave theory of light, and photon theory were apparently developed to impose racial domination. And we cannot have that.

 

I have a friend who is an MD/PhD who teaches at a medical school and he has chosen to practice kitmān to keep his job. Jordan Peterson (who wrote the standard textbook on the psychological aspects of totalitarianism and then had to fight for his academic job in Canada) and others have been writing about this tilt in our culture for years.

It's important to note that this "dismantling" is the expression of long held and foundational tendencies/ideals within western civilization itself. In other words certain axiomatic aspects of the Enlightment (e.g. nominalism, Cartesian self, etc.) lead just to where we are at. Reaping what we have long sowed and all that...

 

My job has been pushing slightly on this as an "awareness" thing. However, people forget about this stuff after we do an online training class. It is mostly due to I think "look good in public" so more people do business with my employer. The usual.

However....some of this stuff is also done due to want to avoid bad feedback/press + want to avoid any discrimination claims from the state/federal level. Here's an incident that recently happened and it was kind of a big deal in my world.

 

You are right, that is the most disturbing aspect of it. It is almost impossible to defeat any great civilization from outside. What is happening is suicide.

 

OI and "damping factor" (electrical not physical) have an inverse relationship, but is it 1 to 1? In other words, damping factor does not simply = (inversely) OI correct?
