Fiction, propaganda and news: Links 1 for August 2, 2021

Posted on by

1. This is fun. An X-files segment from the reboot has a lot of familiar ideas in it from current reality, but they manage to blame it all on Republicans. The “Problem reaction solution” mentioned is pure Hegel/Marx.

2. It is starting to look like any benefits from the mRNA shots disappear after 6 months. But does the Bell’s Palsy?

The latest data from Israel, which has used primarily the Pfizer mRNA vaccine, indicates that vaccine effectiveness against Delta coronavirus infection and symptomatic (“mild”) disease has dropped from about 95% to about 40%, whereas effectiveness against hospitalization and severe disease (i.e. low blood oxygen levels) remains at 80% to 90% (see chart above).

Importantly, in people who got vaccinated already in January 2021 (primarily the elderly), protection against infection and mild disease may already have dropped to near 0% (see chart above). Moreover, since the Delta covid outbreak is still accelerating in Israel, the effectiveness against hospitalization and severe disease may further decrease (due to lags in hospitalizations).

(Update: New data from Hebrew University shows that protection against severe disease has already dropped to 80%; compared to the original 96%, this results in a five-fold increase in residual risk.)

3. Video essay on the dangers of that most evil of human attributes. Obedience, and how it creates totalitarian states.

4. Please see item 3.

5. You know what’s funny? How researchers and enemy propaganda news like CTV never seem to link fires and smoke to the communists that are always spotted walking into the woods just before a fire with gasoline and matches.

Thank you all who contributed to this site and its efforts in any way this past week. The institutions of state in many cases not only have failed us both from the media to the regulatory agencies, but in some cases have turned against the public and the constitutional principles upon which they were to serve.

So its down to us now to determine what is true, and what makes sense for us each individually. And that is what we try to do here.

  1. When a Nightmare is unfolding in front of you, and you’re one of the few that can see what is about to unfold, you have to be aware that you’re most likely lighting your own Funeral Pyre at both Ends at the same time.
    Because the proponents of the Nightmare want you gone, and those that have been jolted out of their stupor from the Nightmare want you gone too.
    It’s so much easier to shoot the Messenger than the actual threat.
    It’s getting scarier day by day.

    • 3 – at about 7:00:

      “…good enablers demand censorship so that they may stay comfortable in their wrongmindedness…”

      Good enablers are reincarnated, it seems, for every tyranny. We are already the dangerous free radicals, sorry to say. And I have flipped it in my mind enough to know that I cannot flip the injection that I cannot take back. So yes Sassy, ET and Gentleman Bastard (love the name), we’re circling the drain of history–once again.

      When everything you say is disinformation to those who have swallowed disinformation, you’re screwed.

  2. A few days ago, I read a Twitter thread about the protest marches being held in Western Europe that made a lot of sense.

    To summarize, they will lead nowhere and I agree. Knowing that we represent 25% of the citizenry who oppose the jab and the special passport, that leaves 75% of people that will blame us for all their ills. And those in power know it, they anticipated it, and they want it.

    What to expect next? Violence that can be interpreted of the terror-type. Then, we’ll be designated as ‘Extremists’ and ‘Dangerous Radicals’. Under pressure and unbearable living conditions, many will comply.

    There has to be another course of action and fast.

    • 75% of people that will blame us for all their ills
      .
      Nonsense.
      .
      Only MSM zombies will blame those who choose not to get the shots. And twitter-cases spoiling for a fight about ANYTHING. That’s falling into the trap that’s been set for ALL of US.
      Actually, JUMPING into the trap.

      US and THEM: What’s that all about?
      Projecting anger and assuming a victim posture that’s inappropriate and TOTALLY counterproductive.

      Both my Russki and I have been vaxxed – we had our own reasons. But we’re fighting tooth and nail against mandates.

      We know non-native, working-class Americans who are now threatened with job loss. We put them in touch with local advocacy orgs. In Russian, Spanish, and French. We’re listening and paying attention; we’re not trained in de-programming.

      And we’re not the only fully-vaxxed who oppose what’s going on. We ALL[*] have kids and grandkids – that’s OUR skin in the game.
