This Is Why Men Don’t Ask Women For Directions

This is only a partial reparation for all those “men never ask for directions” complaints from wives.

No hard feelings, bro.

Anyway.

.I was so close.: Woman gets wrong coordinates for Sedona, Arizona tattooed on body

h ttps://www.fox5dc.com/news/i-was-so-close-woman-gets-wrong-coordinates-for-sedona-arizona-tattooed-on-body

By Catherine Park, 28 April 2021

Here, “I was so close” means “offshore of Chile”.

A St. Louis woman who was trying to get a spontaneous tattoo of a meaningful location ended up getting the coordinates of a random location tattooed on her body because she did not double-check her conversions.

Not exactly. She didn’t check her spelling. Of coordinates.

Instead of getting the coordinates for downtown Sedona, Arizona, Bri Pritchett, 24, accidentally ended up getting coordinates of a random spot somewhere in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Chile permanently tattooed on her shoulder.

The thing about those coordinates is that Arizona, being in the Northern hemisphere, should have an “N” instead of a “S” for its latitude.

I’m surprised that’s her only tattoo but then, she’s still young. Her bulging fat hasn’t begun to sag yet. When it does, I predict she’ll get another tattoo to ward off the haters with. With yet another strategic misspelling.

Pritchett and her boyfriend took a trip to Sedona to celebrate getting their COVID-19 vaccines in early April. Pritchett went to school at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff and used to frequent the downtown Sedona area with her college friends.

That’s what made this post happen. The Covidians have elevated getting jabbed into a life event on par with getting married. Last I saw my chiropractor, he had ditched the mask and hand-washing he’d carefully assumed and was practically dancing maskless in his office, having had two weeks after the magical Pfizer jabs. I’ve seen women showing up to the drive-through clinics in sleeveless wedding gowns. It’s freaky as Hell.

Even the bureaucrats SAID it wasn’t a vaccine. No authority pretended otherwise, except they kept using the word “vaccine”. But the Covidians heard what they wanted to hear and like a religious revival, have passed from death to life by the magical rebirth offered by FauciCorp.

“I love Sedona. Loved it,” Pritchett told FOX TV Stations. “I went on hikes near there to have a little break. Sororities and fraternities hung out at a local creek. It was a meaningful place for me and got me through some tough times in college.”

Frat chick is not a virgin.

During the tail end of her trip, Pritchett decided she wanted to commemorate her love for her past college town and get the coordinates of downtown Sedona tattooed on her left shoulder.

“So, I was standing in Sedona and looking around the downtown area, and I dropped a pin in Google maps,” Pritchett said. “My boyfriend and I had talked about it the whole trip and decided to just walk in.”

“We have so many good memories of this place, Mike, let’s get a tattoo to remember what happened here!”

“My name is Chris.”

Pritchett realized that something was off about her tattoo while at work where she is a sensory analyst for Anheuser-Busch.

The ex-sorority fat chick is now a “sensory analyst” for a beer company?

“It was about a week after I got it,” Pritchett said. “I was learning things at work about the regions that hops grow in and I saw a map that said this is where they grow and they had the latitude posted and I realized Arizona was not anywhere near where I got tattooed. I was like, I have to re-Google this, so I was sitting at work and I’m banging my head against a desk because I felt so stupid.”

You know what’s even stupider than that?

While replacing the “S” for an “N” in her tattoo could be a fairly fast fix, Pritchett has decided to keep it.

“I mean, it’s whatever,” Pritchett said. “I think I’m just going to keep it. It.ll be a good story.”

Not all drama is good drama, Madame Inky.

And Then They Came For the Republican Sellouts

I read Biden’s Executive Order authorizing civil asset forfeiture & starvation so you don’t have to. It is both a fascinating exploration of Clown World and a major clue towards the mysterious forces that actually run the American Empire. But first, I must fisk the Establishment Republican reaction to it! They’ve had so much fun betraying Heritage America for decades that it’s come as a shock that their turn has finally arrived.

Executive Order Canceling the Constitution

h ttps://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/04/executive_order_canceling_the_constitution.html

By Leo Goldstein, 20 April 2021

Oh noes! The Constitution has suddenly and overnight been overthrown! I’m guessing this Jew is Zionist since he’s not happy about it but I’m not interested in tweaking big noses today.

Not when Hunter Biden is on the menu!

On April 15, Preident Biden signed an Executive Order on Blocking Property with Respect to Specified Harmful Foreign Activities of the Government of the Russian Federation. Contrary to its title, this EO is not about Russia. It is designed to allow the Biden administration to deprive American citizens and organizations of their rights and property by arbitrarily linking those persons to real, imagined, or vaguely defined activities of the Russian government.

Contrary to Leo’s opinion, this EO is not about American citizens. Globalists did that to us the first time Obama went around, thanks for noticing. Republican Establishment officials have been served notice that their services as loyal opposition are no longer valued.

The Biden administration unilaterally makes the determination and requires neither criminal acts nor intent. The punishment is blocking assets and a prohibition on any dealing with the accused person. Spouses and adult children of individuals found guilty by accusation under this EO are punished, too.

Hee hee hee BWA HA HA HAAA!!! Delicious!

Dear reader, do you have a wealthy spouse in a position of authority? Are your adult children millionaire diplomats of the jet set? Of course not. You raised your kids to work for a living and your wife had a family instead of a career. If the government came after me for something a brother did elsewhere, I’d just be one more mouth to feed in the pen. Me being an outspoken white male Christian, the government doesn’t even need an excuse to come after me.

If the government punished your wife for something you did then the Sisterhood would eat that raw. There is no benefit, potential for blowback, redundancy with all those unconstitutional Red Flag laws… nope, Team Biden didn’t write “Spouses and adult children of individuals found guilty” to go after Joe Normal.

So, who DOES have spouses and adult children in high positions of wealth and authority? The rich and powerful. The Bushes, the Bidens, the Kochs and Clintons, Kennedys, Garcettis and Steinbergs, oh my! All those Elites defying all those nepotism rules to keep the family thrones and jewels in-house.

The StoptheSteal purge was political target practice against people who couldn’t fight back. Now, it’s time to clear out those pesky dynasties who associated with the greatest Russian agent of all, Donald “Orange Man” Trump. Does Trump have a political dynasty? Sons in high authority and privilege such as Junior and Kushner? With lots and lots of top-flight lawfare experts on hair-trigger standby that can be bypassed only by invoking emergency powers? Oh yeah, it ain’t about us no mo’.

Some of the language in this EO borrows from another: EO-13224 – Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten To Commit, or Support Terrorism. George W. Bush signed EO-13224 on September 23, 2001, in response to 9/11.

“It’s okay when we do it.”

If Team Biden exterminates and confiscates the entirety of the Bush dynasty then it still won’t be enough punishment for the treacheries they inflicted upon America with their “War on Terror”.

However, Biden’s EO is as similar to Bush’s EO as an atomic bomb is to a sniper rifle. Bush’s EO targeted financing terrorism. It defined terrorism clearly and narrowly.

And now, the terrorists occupy D.C. Great job, Bush men! You kept us SOOO safe with the way you sacrificially served the noble good of the people!

Additionally, Bush made a legally meaningful promise to use it with due regard…

The stupid, it hurts!

Leftist pseudo-elites have been eager to ban speech based on allegations that such speech may be beneficial to Russia. Such ideation has been present among Big Tech influencers for a long time. This EO effectively gives Big Tech, banks, and credit card companies a new pretext to deplatform conservatives and anyone else who opposes the Biden regime by claiming that they are now engaged in illegal activity.

BigCorp had already been doing this to us when Republicucks courageously threw Trump under the bus on behalf of those same Leftists. Why the hurt feelings this time?

Biden.s EO appears to allow the Democrat party to deny Americans the right to advocate against it in future federal elections.

“I thought we were friends! You wanted me! You needed me! This is betrayal!”

This might be accomplished through a “determination” that Russia is interfering in elections against democratic candidates. Thus, any US citizens who also oppose Democrats [read, vote Republican] could be found to acting for Russia’s benefit, directly or indirectly.

I’m so, so sowwy, Republican Party… but you see, a vote for you might be a vote for Russia and I can’t risk that. I’ll have to vote Democrat for my own safety from now until you… um… win an election.

But don’t worry. The next midterms will be the most important election EVER! and you’ll do what always works for you: assume that all Heritage Americans have no choice but to vote for you and spend your effort courting the mystical “undecided voter” instead… that non-tenured college professor of Marxism who reached age 30 still being undecided about whether more taxes or more spending is more fun.

What makes this Executive Order really special, however, is that it’s worded to also purge Democrat dynasties. Hunter Biden is on the same menu!

Executive Order on Blocking Property with Respect to Specified Harmful Foreign Activities of the Government of the Russian Federation

h ttps://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/04/15/executive-order-on-blocking-property-with-respect-to-specified-harmful-foreign-activities-of-the-government-of-the-russian-federation/

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (8 U.S.C. 1182(f)), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,

The International Emergency Economic Powers Act gives the President authority to (mostly unilaterally) regulate international commerce. This was most recently invoked by Trump to impose tariffs on Mexico in order to force their cooperation on border security measures.

National Emergencies Act is the framework for declaring and ending a national emergency. TL;DR whenever the President or a joint declaration of Congress says so.

INA section 212(f) says the President can declare a foreign national inadmissible to the United States. Heh, Biden had to reach back to 1952 for something that slows immigration.

Section 301 of title 3, United States Code is an emergency power that allows the President to appoint people without the approval of Congress.

Taken together, this isn’t martial law yet. Biden now has total control of international commerce and can appoint foreign powers to administer the Deep State without Congress’ approval.

I wonder. Congress’ only hold over the Executive Branch is the purse strings… but if the dollar collapses then they won’t even have that, and Biden’s new powers over commerce could allow the USA Federal Government to become fiscally independent of the USA entirely.

I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, [being of unfit mind,] find that specified harmful foreign activities of the Government of the Russian Federation . in particular, efforts to undermine the conduct of free and fair democratic elections and democratic institutions in the United States and its allies and partners…

Meaning the Republican Party specifically and “not Dominion Voting” generally…

…to engage in and facilitate malicious cyber-enabled activities against the United States and its allies and partners…

Efforts to thwart Big Tech monopolies.

…to foster and use transnational corruption to influence foreign governments…

If Resident Biden had not been senile, he would have stopped here and recognized it meant him. Prediction: Biden will not be removed for dementia or other medical reason. That would cast unavoidable doubt on whether he’d been a vegetable since day one. (And yes, he was.) Instead, Biden will be revealed by Kamala as… a Russian asset!

…to pursue extraterritorial activities targeting dissidents or journalists…

Methinks Fox News didn’t sell out soon enough.

…to undermine security in countries and regions important to United States national security…

(Still) inexplicably including Syria and the Ukraine.

…and to violate well-established principles of international law, including respect for the territorial integrity of states…

Opposition to the United Nations/New World Order.

. constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat.

The same unusual and extraordinary threat as in the Obama-1 Administration? Seeing as we’re still in Ukraine and Syria?

Sec. 5. I hereby determine that the making of donations of the types of articles specified in section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order would seriously impair my ability to deal with the national emergency declared in this order, and I hereby prohibit such donations as provided by section 1 of this order.

Those “types of articles” are specifically food, clothing and medicine given to relieve human suffering. So, if Biden declared somebody to be a Russian agent then anybody who gives them food… either by sale or as charity… that food-provider is himself a Russian agent to be starved to death.

Goldstein wasn’t entirely wrong about this being a death warrant against the American people.

Sec. 7. For those persons whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States, I find that because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render those measures ineffectual. I therefore determine that for these measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency declared in this order, there need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to section 1 of this order.

“Getting a warrant and notifying you of our suspicions would be a waste of time and create a paper trail.”

Sec. 9. Nothing in this order shall prohibit transactions for the conduct of the official business of the Federal Government or the United Nations (including its specialized agencies, programs, funds, and related organizations) by employees, grantees, and contractors thereof.

Or. The. United. Nations. Biden’s seized powers are perfect for setting up the Trans-Pacific Prosperity Economic Free Trade Zone or whatever the UN is calling it these days.

It’s official: the United States is now a wholly owned subsidiary of foreign governments.

This sounds bad. It is bad. But it’s not targeted at us anymore. We have little left to be stolen. Instead, now that our national wealth has been centralized into the hands of a few Elites, those Elites are now being targeted for wealth confiscation and impoverishment. All the Republicans that got rich off international free trade, it’s now open season on them.

No wonder the Republicans are upset about this. You can’t get blood from a turnip but maybe you can from a Bush.

Just Say “No” To Tyranny

Schadenfreude is not something I want to be part of my personality. And yet, watching people torment themselves the same way they torture me, what am I supposed to feel? I can’t even be pleased that they aren’t being hypocrites because that means they sincerely don’t know how to be human. Perhaps this guy sorting out his feelings will help me sort out mine.

THE ISOLATION OF GRIEF IN THE PANDEMIC

h ttps://www.theverge.com/2021/4/25/22399787/isolation-grief-pandemic-covid19-mental-health

By Jay Peters, 25 April 2021

Many people adopted a pet during the COVID-19 pandemic. My wife and I just lost one.

Gouda, our eight-and-a-half-year-old exotic shorthair cat, died on April 16th. We rushed him to the hospital the previous morning after he spent another night vomiting. The doctors weren’t sure what was wrong, but, over the course of 24 hours, signs pointed to fatal kidney disease. We made the difficult choice to euthanize him.

I can sympathize this far. I grew up with dogs. It’s never fun when the time comes.

The events would have been horrible under any circumstances. But I found that the forced isolation of the pandemic made grieving a lost family member even more challenging than I could have possibly imagined.

My wife and I spent the majority of the 24 hours inside a Zipcar parked outside the animal hospital. Due to safety regulations, we couldn’t wait in the lobby, so we . and all of the other families worried about their pets . waited alone in our cars. Despite being feet away from each other, we were all worlds apart, stranded in pods of sadness made of metal and glass. Once, we watched as a woman handed off her cat to the veterinary staff, got back in her car, and broke down sobbing.

Losing sympathy. First for the veterinarian for banning people from the lobby, then for Jay staying in the car like he didn’t want to just because the government declared it so.

As we attempted to sleep in the Zipcar overnight, the phone was perched on the dashboard. I stared at it in between fits of sleep, dreading when it would ring. We could never talk to the vets in person, meaning we couldn’t see body language, facial expressions, eye contact . nonverbal cues that would have helped us make the most difficult decision of our lives.

If euthanizing his ailing pet was the most difficult decision of his life then I am FAST losing sympathy. I already suspected he had a sheltered life from 1. no camping gear and 2. being strongly emotional. But losing a pet is a time that permits men to cry so I wasn’t sure.

When we went in to see Gouda for our final goodbye, we sat in a dimly lit room on a soft couch. Our masks constantly filled up with snot. From the other side of the room, the staff told us we couldn’t be with Gouda when he died. There would be no easy way to be six feet apart.

“If you can’t grieve in accordance with mandatory health guidelines then you aren’t allowed to grieve.” –a woman married to the State.

Right after, my wife and I realized we didn’t want to be home, but we had nowhere else to go. We’re not vaccinated from COVID-19 yet, so we can’t see our family or friends in person to find solace. We couldn’t escape our empty studio apartment.

Suck it, you fool. Suck on that loneliness hard and give it some tongue action, too, because your kind did that loneliness to me first. I lost my friends because of your Plandemic. Now they’re all excited about getting the jab, every single one, and I’m going to be the lone holdout. I would get new friends but look, no social activities are permitted by the State. Not even grieving! I disobey and go outside to meet people; they see me coming on the hiking trails and cover their faces, keep distant and their heads down. Maybe they’re trying to be polite. They’re certainly trying to avoid me. I wander into the local park past dire warnings that playtime can kill; nobody. Food joints, the beach and game hangouts, no love. Credit to a few bicyclists, however; I should’ve known that people who insist on dressing like that in public could care less about being mask-shamed.

I’ve met some great people online but visiting them requires plane tickets. And soon, vaxx-ports.

So then, liberals can suck on their self-inflicted, self-mandated loneliness until they choke on it and die unloved and shunned as a disease until their corpse rots, at which time they’ll ironically be declared plague-free. I wish these people WERE hypocrites because then, on some level, they would still know how to behave like human beings.

Out of habit, we opened the front door gingerly. Every day for more than eight and a half years, Gouda had always greeted us, sometimes throwing his whole body against the door in his excitement to see us. But he wasn’t there.

Instead, we saw his food bowl, his scratching post, his toys. Our apartment had been the one place we had felt truly safe during the pandemic, but it was now filled with reminders of our missing family member.

So we began to clean.

Usually, getting rid of things comes easily to my wife and me. We have internalized much of what Marie Kondo writes about in The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. But this was different. It was harder than any cleaning we had done before because the things we got rid of were the reminders of our missing family member. We couldn’t fully move on if we kept them, but that didn’t make it easy to let them go. And because of the pandemic, we couldn’t ask others to come over and help. We had to face this part of the grief as just the two of us.

It’s not that his friends shunned Jay. It’s that he refused to give them the chance to NOT shun him because he hadn’t gotten his second Pfizer-jab yet. What am I supposed to feel about such a person? Hate? Pity? Maybe I shouldn’t feel anything and just treat him like that plague-bearing raccoon that doesn’t raid my garbage anymore. Christ wouldn’t want that… but he himself does want to be assumed a plague-bearing varmint? “I’m such a good boy, I told my friends and family to stay away from me until I’ve had my shots! Even when it makes me miserable!”

I will never know how grieving this death would have been different if we weren’t still in the pandemic. I do think it made the worst moments even worse. It trapped us in our car. It kept us from him in the hospital. It separated us from our families. It locked us in our home with the memories of our lost family member.

You could always… oh, I don’t know… JUST SAY ‘NO’ TO TYRANNY!!!

Kondo recommends thanking objects that you remove from your house to acknowledge the role they played in your life. I did that for every one of Gouda’s things. .Thank you, scratching post,. I said. .Thank you, plastic Easter egg. Thank you, food placemat.. I even thanked his litter box.

Get another cat. That’s all you have to do. A little grieving, get ‘er done, then get another pet. Do NOT anthropomorphize the litter box.

Thanking Gouda’s things may sound trivial. But it was one of the few rituals left to me during the pandemic, when so much has been taken away, and it helped me recognize everything that Gouda gave to me. He taught me responsibility, caring for and feeding him every day. He taught me how to play, crouching just out of sight around the bed so that he could spring toward me. He taught me about love, snuggled above my head on my pillow in the middle of the night.

Thank you, Gouda.

So, Jay… in the unlikely event you’ve discovered this and read this far without hating my guts… has the government banning you from acting human taught you anything about evil? Do you have any resentment at all that the State has practically banned you from living indoors, banned you from being visited by family when you’re hurting, banned you from showing your face long enough to kiss a loved one goodbye? Are you bothered at all that humanity now comes only in a syringe blessed by the New World Order?

Please say yes, so that both of us can see the other as a fellow human being.

She Cut Her Hair For the Devil!

This post is a sordid descent from a celebrity woman cutting her hair to please the devil, to the Ticket-seller Scooter Braun. A spectacle of horrors of the celebrity underworld! and what a small place it is, where everybody knows everybody.

Demi Lovato says haircut enabled her to break free of southern Christian .gender, sexuality norms.

h ttps://www.christianpost.com/news/demi-lovato-cut-hair-to-break-free-of-gender-sexuality-norms.html

By Jeannie Law, 21 April 2021

Pop star Demi Lovato, who just last year said she was attending church again and then came out as a pansexual…

No, no, no. There’s no *and* in “I’m attending church *and* pansexual”.

…has revealed that her short haircut is her way of breaking free of the “gender and sexuality norms” imposed on her by southern Christian culture.

Lovato shared her thoughts about hair and Christian culture in the South while on the “The Drew Barrymore Show.”

That’s better. “I’m pansexual *and* the Drew Barrymore Show”? Okay.

She explained that she chose to cut her hair really short after she grew weary of trying to be the stereotypical “sexy feminine pop star” and the models she said were placed on her “as a Christian in the South..

.And when I cut my hair,. Lovato explained, .I felt so liberated because I wasn’t subscribing to an ideal or a belief placed upon me to be something that I’m not..

We can agree that she’s no longer feminine. She’s also neither masculine nor robot so that leaves only the Fourth Gender: freak.

The interview promoted Lovato’s new YouTube series and latest record, both titled “Dancing with the Devil..

The expression is her description of her journey with and recovery from drug addiction.

.I was dancing with the devil, out of control / almost made it to heaven / it was closer than you know / playing with the enemy, gambling with my soul / it’s so hard to say “no” / when you’re dancing with the devil,. the former Disney star sings in the chorus of the song. .Praying for better days to come and wash this pain away / Could you please forgive me? / Lord, I’m sorry for dancing with the devil..

I never thought women would begin to say that out loud. That must have been a very brief dalliance with the Church.

In early 2020, Lovato announced that she was attending church and growing her relationship with God since she nearly died from an overdose in July 2018.

The 28-year-old was also baptized in 2019 in the Jordan River and celebrated her experience on Instagram.

.There is something absolutely magical about Israel. I’ve never felt such a sense of spirituality or connection to God . something I’ve been missing for a few years now,. Lovato wrote. .To be baptized in the Jordan river . the same place Jesus was baptized . I’ve never felt more renewed in my life..

A two-year dalliance with Christianity, after which she shaved herself bald and started dirty-dancing with the devil in public. “Jesus was a nobody but man, that Jordan River, it made me feel like God.”

In the interview with Barrymore, Lovato revealed she was the “happiest” she has ever been.

.If you don’t like it, fine,. she maintained. “But if this provokes a conversation and raises awareness, takes away the stigma about the topics I’m talking about, then that’s what I want, is to just open people’s perspectives and to change the conversation around recovery, too..

No you bald freak, the problem with Satan is not that he has a poor public image.

In a recent appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast, she came out as a “pansexual” who is attracted to .anything, really.” She said she hid this identity for many years because of her Christian upbringing.

.I felt a lot of shame because growing up in Texas as a Christian, that’s very frowned upon,. she said, referring to her sexual attraction to women. “Any attraction that I ever had toward a female at a young age, I shut it down before I even let myself process what I was feeling..

Today, Texas has been honored with a curse from Hell Itself.

Lovato, who broke off an engagement in 2020, told Rogan that she is now “too gay to marry a man” and is unsure “if that will change..

Ah, she only went Christian because she fell in wuvs. After the relationship ended, she shaved herself bald and swore her soul to Satan. Such are the wimminz infesting the Church in Current Year.

Who was she dating, anyway?

I must know.

*checks*

Justin Bieber?!!

JUSTIN BIEBER & DEMI LOVATO: WE’RE LOYAL TO SCOOTER … So Help Us God!!!

h ttps://www.tmz.com/2019/12/19/justin-bieber-hailey-baldwin-demi-lovato-scooter-braun-attend-church/

Justin Bieber and Demi Lovato have formed a holy alliance with their manager Scooter Braun.

Justin and Demi hit the pews Wednesday night at an L.A. church with Scooter, along with Justin’s wife, Hailey.

It seems more than just a trek to a place of worship … it’s a showing of a united front with some of Scooter’s most famous clients … this in the wake of Taylor Swift’s campaign against the manager and his Big Machine.

Which church? I had to dig deep to find out (spoiler: Hillsong) but first, Lovato obviously did not go to church to find Christ, but to show loyalty to this Scooter Braun who’s never pinged my radar before. The context here is that Taylor Swift wanted to re-record her old work for a number of prima facie valid reasons. Her manager Scooter refused unless she signed an agreement to never tell the world about “what Scooter did”. Last I read, Taylor Swift was now making death threats against Scooter while Bieber and Lovato went to church specifically to show support for Braun.

Things that make you go “hmm”.

So, who’s Scooter? Two articles.

How Scooter Braun Achieved a Net Worth of $400 Million

h ttps://moneyinc.com/scooter-braun-net-worth/

By Allen Lee, 2020

His official name is Scott Braun, but people know him better as Scooter Braun. You can never talk about the rise of Justin Bieber without mentioning him. He has become a force to reckon with in the music industry since he manages the most prominent names. Even though he has gotten on the nerves of some like Ariana Grande, who fired him, she still recognized his managerial ability and rehired him after several months. However, he does not only have an eye for discovering musical talent, but he also has a nose for savvy investments.

Those are two very different fields. Finding a master of one field is rare; a master of two fields, nigh impossible.

Here are a few ways that Scooter Braun’s net worth grew to $400 million.

At times you find yourself thrust in a world that ultimately shapes your destiny. Scooter found himself at Emory University, and although he dropped out, it was not before he had made connections in the music industry.

Now we’re talking about a prodigy of two very different fields? Probability is shaking its head in the corner.

…when Scooter heard Justin Bieber sing, he took a chance on him. By then, Justin was only 12, but he convinced Justin and his mother to move to America. Scooter had saved enough money to last him 13 months, so he paid the bills for both where Justin and his mum lived as well as Asher Roth’s place. There was still no sign of success coming his way despite having two musicians under his wing; Scooter only had two months left before his money ran out. When his father called, Scooter broke down, saying he was ready to give up. Fortunately, his father encouraged him, and by a stroke of luck, Asher Roth played .I Love College,. the next day, which eventually saw Scooter getting a deal that saved his company.

Uh-huh. Luck. Was Daddy a Hollywood executive? *checks* Don’t know, but per wikipedia Braun’s Jewish parents fled Hungary in 1956. That would be the purge of Bolsheviks not the usual Not-See camps.

Asher Roth was a college sophomore (now rap artist) who “friended” Braun over social media and within a week, had quit college and moved in with Braun and his preteen fatherless child-prodigy. More things that make you go “hmm”.

As for Justin, it is safe to say that Scooter has accumulated lots of wealth from the success of the young popstar. However, it was not easy since with most stars, the minute the money gets in their head, they become distracted and get involved in drugs and crime. Justin was not spared from this path of destruction, and Scooter thought he would lose him over a drug overdose as published on Billboard. Luckily for Scooter, Justin has gotten his act together. With his success, other stars like Ariana Grande, Tori Kelly, and Kanye West signed him as their manager.

Either Scooter was the best/luckiest media manager in American history, or he was the kingmaker who chose who got to succeed on the media platforms controlled by his tribe.

Usually, managers get paid a lucrative salary that could be at least $100,000 per year. They also get a commission based on the gross payment that the artist receives. With Justin Bieber becoming the highest-selling artist of those born after 1990, Scooter must be raking in lots of commissions.

That’s not a lucrative salary. If you haven’t already noticed, this article is a smokescreen to explain ((Braun’s)) meteoric success without making reference to Jewish domination of American entertainment and finance.

Scooter can smell where the money is, and one of his investments is in Uber. One day when he went to San Francisco to strike a deal with another company, things did not work out. The man told Scooter he would get him an Uber to take him to the airport. Scooter did not have to pay and that only piqued his interest in the cab business.

No, that’s not how he got interested.

After meeting Travis Klanick, [the son of Viennese Jews,] Uber’s co-founder, Scooter, knew the best thing he could do was invest early in the company.

Yes, that’s how he got interested.

Although the valuation of the company was too high, Scooter risked his money. To him, the passion Travis had is all the confidence Scooter needed to stake his money in Uber. Some sources recently reported Uber to be dangerously profitable and discouraged people from investing in it, but agree that early investors like Scooter have made a killing.

Suuuure.

Scooter has also invested in Spotify by striking a friendship with the owner. He believes the only way to become prosperous is by finding people with the same drive. Therefore when he was on billboards .30 Under 30. he asked for the contact of the other people on the list. Daniel Ek, Spotify’s founder, was on it, and they ended up hanging out during the weekend. By the time the weekend was over, they had struck such a great friendship that Daniel let Scooter invest early in Spotify.

I don’t know that Ek is Jewish. This may just be a separate, more common problem of money hanging out with money.

Scooter.s investment in Uber and Spotify paid off since, in 2010, he used venture funds raised from the two companies to launch Ithaca Holdings LLC. Although Carlyle Group became a minority investor in 2017 and injected more capital valued at $800 million in the firm, Scooter remains the majority owner.

Aaaand we’re back to ((rich uncles)).

You can never go wrong by putting your money in real estate.

*eye roll*

Scooter has made some fortune in the industry as well. In 2012, Scooter bought a home in West Hollywood for $2,450,000 and in 2015, put it up for sale with an asking price of $3,925,000. In November 2014, he and his wife bought a mansion for $13.1 million but not before selling their Sunset Strip home for $4.6 million. The entrepreneur knows how to make quick cash because, according to Celebrity net Worth, in 2011 they had bought property in Los Angeles for $5.7 million which they sold in 2015 for $11.6 million.

They bought properties distressed by the 2010 meltdown.

So, that’s the smoke screen. Let’s hear the dirt!

The Shady Side Of Scooter Braun

h ttps://www.nickiswift.com/157615/the-shady-side-of-scooter-braun/

By Jessica Sager, 4 July 2019

Manager Scott “Scooter” Braun has come a long way since getting fired from Jermaine Dupri’s So So Def Records at the age of 23. After striking out on his own, the entertainment mogul’s first semi-success story was one-hit wonder Asher Roth, whose “I Love College” was a modest radio hit in 2009. That same year, a mop-topped Canadian preteen by the name of Justin Bieber (whom Braun discovered) released his debut EP, My World, and Braun soared into the stratosphere with the “Baby” singer. (All of this despite the fact that the Biebs’ mother, Pattie Mallette, once reportedly admitted she initially wasn’t too thrilled that Braun, a descendant of Holocaust survivors, is Jewish. However, Braun himself later claimed her quote on the matter was taken out of context.)

Over the next decade, Braun would create a multi-media empire through SchoolBoy Records…

Either America simply had no musical talent worth discovering, or Scooter had an ulterior motive for scouting a fatherless preteen boy. Building a “Schoolboy Records” company around him doesn’t calm my suspicions. Neither do the pictures of how Bieber turned out at the end of this post. Scooter:

…and invest in numerous business ventures and companies, including Uber and DropBox. His past and present talent management roster includes the likes of Bieber, Ariana Grande, Kanye West, Demi Lovato, and more. But for every success story at Braun’s hand are tales of drama that could potentially overshadow his professional acumen. Behold, this is the shady side of Scooter Braun.

In June 2019, Scooter Braun announced that he’d purchased Taylor Swift’s former record label, Big Machine, and acquired the rights to her old music catalog…

“Never in my worst nightmares did I imagine the buyer would be Scooter,” Swift wrote, before adding of Big Machine founder Scott Borchetta, “Any time Scott Borchetta has heard the words ‘Scooter Braun’ escape my lips, it was when I was either crying or trying not to.” The “You Need to Calm Down” hitmaker continued, “He knew what he was doing; they both did. Controlling a woman who didn’t want to be associated with them. In perpetuity. That means forever.” While Swift alleged that the $300 million deal went through without her knowledge, Borchetta vehemently denied this claim.

Taylor Swift is not a pillar of sanity but it’s probably true that she didn’t know or intend for Scooter to own her work. As boldfaced above, he’d acquired the rights to her music via his Ithaca hedge fund purchasing the label.

It seems that Scooter’s reputation in show biz is not shiny.

Multi-talented YouTube star Todrick Hall . who just so happens to be a close friend of Taylor Swift and a former Scooter Braun client . came out swinging against the latter in the Swift-Braun feud. “He is an evil person who’s only concern is his wealth and feeding his disgusting ego,” Hall tweeted in part at the time. “I believe he is homophobic & I know from his own mouth that he is not a Swift fan.” He added, “I would normally not say anything because I’m sure scooter will threaten me like he has before to keep me quiet, but guess what Scooter, nothing you can do to me would be worst than the 6 years of my life I can’t get back from when & I was ignored as your ‘artist.’”

In response, Demi Lovato chimed in and denied that Braun was homophobic.

We’re back to the start of this post. I agree with Lovato. Braun is far more like to be…

*drum roll*

…pansexual. If you know what I mean.

Meanwhile, Braun’s business partner, Allison Kaye Scarinzi, claimed that Hall had been dropped from SchoolBoy Records for allegedly stealing from fans. We’ll leave it to you to pick a side in all of this.

None are innocent. A cleansing fire shall consume them!

Scooter Braun managed Kanye West until April 2018, when West publicly announced that he “can’t be managed.” As a result, Braun took to other tactics in an effort to help steer the rapper’s career and life…. Braun preferred the terms “adviser” and “partner” when it came to his relationship with West (which means he’s probably still not really a “friend,” because he’s still getting those checks). However, when asked why he didn’t “advise” West against tweeting apparent madness about Donald Trump and slavery, Braun shirked responsibility once again, saying he’s “more concerned with the president of the United States being on social media than I am with Kanye West.” Okay, but what about when they’re tweeting about each other … and hanging out?

This article is dated April 2019 and Kayne West didn’t convert to Christianity [and proceeding to perform at Scooter’s Hillsong Church] until October 2019… but this was worth mentioning.

And speaking of Hillsong… the final article. The church Lovato attended until she got the idea to cut her hair and dance with the devil.

Justin Bieber’s new church is a “cult” of rock gigs, fiery sermons and abuse claims

h ttps://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/4133322/biebers-church-cult-allegations-hillsong/

By James Beal & Zoe Nauman, 30 July 2017

WHEN Justin Bieber signed up to evangelical church Hillsong, its leaders must have thought their prayers had been answered.

He has millions of fans to whom he could spread their controversial ?message and ?millions of pounds in the bank with which he could back his spiritual gurus. Most importantly, he brings a celebrity sheen which ?distracts from the allegations of homophobia, child abuse and financial greed which surround the troubled church. …

Last week Bieber announced that he was ?cancelling the remaining dates of his Purpose world tour after ?consulting the Christian organisation.

While Hillsong has strenuously denied that they urged him to ?cancel, Bieber.s manager Scooter Braun has cited his client’s “soul and wellbeing” for the decision.

Scooter is at least partially involved in Hillsong. Being Bieber’s manager, it’s actually him that they would have contracted that tour with.

The rest of the article is a very odd mixture of accusations against Hillsong for being homophobic together with descriptions of Sodomite orgies. This Gordian knot can be cut by just the two following pictures.

In March, Bieber had called on Hillsong pastor Carl Lentz [one of 12 head pastors] to help him stay connected to God during his gruelling tour.

Pastor is not avoiding “even a hit of sexual immorality” here.

How nice of Head Pastor Carl Lentz to mentor a young man struggling with drug & sex damage by getting sweaty at the gym with him… just the two of them… and doing shots at bars during high-profile world tours.

It’s no surprise that Demi Lovato emerged from the influences of Scooter and Carl to cut her hair off in the name of the devil and have sex with anybody and the local wildlife, too.

Women, don’t cut your hair. Men, don’t associate with the women who do. And in the off-chance that you’re rich and famous and damaged as a result… for the love of your soul, burn it all, walk away into obscurity and let Christ be greater than you.

Incompetent Spell-Casting

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that because our enemies are increasingly accomplished word-sorcerers, that they somehow are no longer blithering, self-destructive idiots.

The title of this coming article got me excited. I’ve long waited for arrogant-prick Socialists who got power over their fellow man via credentials, cronies and cruelties, to get a taste of what a real street fight is. But NOPE, they still haven’t noticed it’s martial arts, not marshmallow arts.

Nation Faces ‘Hand-to-Hand Combat’ to Get Reluctant Americans Vaccinated

The New York Times via h ttps://news.yahoo.com/nation-faces-hand-hand-combat-121327766.html

By Sheryl Gay Stolberg and Annie Karni, 21 April 2021

That’s right, you Gay Stolbergs! Put your dukes up and come get me some!

WASHINGTON . Now that President Joe Biden has met his goal to have the coronavirus vaccine available to all adults, health officials around the country are hitting what appears to be a soft ceiling: More than half the nation’s adults have gotten at least one dose, but it is going to take hard work . and some creative changes in strategy . to convince the rest.

A good description of where we are today. D.C. intends to infect, er, inject everybody with the quaccines whether they want it or not. Thus far, the Lefties have been shoving each other out of the way to guinea-pig retroviral solutions to a plague so lethal that only a blood test can tell if you have it, so it was easy to pretend that all the world was on-board.

But those Dreamers have now passed on to their eternal reward of continuing to wear face diapers & pool noodle hats exactly as if they hadn’t bothered getting Quacked at all. They seem satisfied with this–it’s for the best, really–but the rest of us are not lining up to be saved by the magic Jesuit midget.

State health officials, business leaders, policymakers and politicians are struggling to figure out how to tailor their messages, and their tactics, to persuade not only the vaccine hesitant but also the indifferent. The work will be labor intensive, much of it may fall on private employers and the risk is that it will take so long that the nation will not be able to reach herd immunity . the point at which the spread of the virus slows . in time to stop worrisome new variants from evading the vaccine.

That’s spellcasting in a nutshell. “They are not doing what I want. Well then, what magic words of power can I speak that will compel their obedience against their own wishes and better judgment?”

Also, that’s fascism. “Much of it may fall on private employers”, uh-huh.

.If you think of this as a war,. said Michael Carney, the senior vice president for emerging issues at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation, .we’re about to enter the hand-to-hand combat phase of the war..

What does he know about war? Segue to his bio!

Michael Carney

Carney joined the Foundation after more than two decades as a journalist and consultant. He was a partner at one of the world’s largest communications firms, where he advised corporate executives and government officials in the U.S., Europe, and the Middle East. He later served as head of public affairs at the Community of Democracies and operated a consultancy in the Netherlands.

Earlier in his career, Carney was a reporter and editor. At USA Today, he was the lead writer for the newspaper’s breaking news blog, On Deadline. His investigative reporting as a magazine freelancer earned top honors in 2005 and 2006 from the Society of Professional Journalists in Washington.

Textbook career Deep State. He knows nothing about war… certainly, nothing like he’s gonna in the next couple years. *GQ points at Black Losers Marching*

End segue

In Louisiana, where 40% of the adult population has had one shot even though all adults have been eligible since March, officials are delivering doses to commercial fishermen near the docks and running pop-up clinics at a Buddhist temple, homeless shelters and truck stops. Civic groups are conducting door-to-door visits, akin to a get-out-the-vote effort, in neighborhoods with low vaccination rates.

Yeah, sure, the quaccine holdouts are Buddhists and homeless bums. They couldn’t vaxx normal Americans if they wanted to because (from their perspective) they’d be saving the lives of white people.

To Mitigate Racial Inequity, the CDC Wants To Vaccinate Essential Workers Before the Elderly

h ttps://reason.com/2020/12/18/vaccine-cdc-essential-workers-elderly-racial-covid-19/

By Robby Soave, 18 December 2020

Take your time and reread that headline. It is special even by Clown World standards.

Deaths from COVID-19 are overwhelmingly concentrated among the elderly, and thus it would seem obvious that vaccinating older Americans should be a top priority. Yet the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have released guidance suggesting that millions of essential workers should receive the vaccine before many people 65 and older.

Part of the reason for this, according to a CDC report, is to mitigate and racial and ethnic “health inequities.” Older Americans are disproportionately white, whereas the essential worker category includes a larger percentage of racial minorities and low-income people.

Older populations are whiter, ” Harald Schmidt, a professor of ethics and health policy at the University of Pennsylvania, told The New York Times. “Society is structured in a way that enables them to live longer. Instead of giving additional health benefits to those who already had more of them, we can start to level the playing field a bit.

Every time I think I hate Baby Boomers, imported diversity shoves me out of the way to demonstrate what hatred is. Turns out, I don’t really hate Boomers. I just want my country back.

End segue

In Alabama, fewer than 40% of adults have had at least one shot. Dr. Scott Harris, the state health officer, is trying to reach out to rural white residents, who demonstrate high rates of vaccine hesitancy. They are mistrustful of politicians and the news media, so Harris is asking doctors to record cellphone videos. .Please email them to your patients, saying, .This is why I think you ought to take the vaccine,.. he has pleaded.

The spellcasting begins. “You are not opposed to the jab. You are merely hesitant. Let me help you overcome.”

But Harris’ effort to invoke Trusted Leaders is not going to work. “I am Doctor Birinderjeet and of this you must be certain, the vaxx will save your life even if you’ve already had Kung Flu.” The folks of Alabama have already been listening to doctors. That’s *why* they don’t want the jab.

Some companies are contemplating running their own vaccine clinics and trying to educate their workers about the benefits of getting protected against a virus that has already killed more than 560,000 Americans. But as the economy swings into gear, they are reluctant to mandate vaccination for their employees, fearing too many would seek work elsewhere.

“Some companies” include Uber, Southwest Airlines, Walgreens and Walmart. I want to say that small business wouldn’t be able to afford this step if they wanted to… but no, they keep walking to Lubyanka State Loans to beg another round of mercy.

White House officials say they take it as a good sign that nearly 51% of American adults have turned out for a first dose . .a major milestone,. said Dr. Bechara Choucair, the White House vaccinations coordinator, and an indication that “there are tens of millions of people who are still eager to get vaccinated..

But he is well aware that there will come a time when Americans are no longer fighting for vaccine slots, and when supply will exceed demand.

That’s the point at which they can’t keep destroying us remotely. Us being pushed outside of society means us being pushed outside of their remote control.

In some parts of the country, that point may be here. In Mississippi, which opened vaccinations to all adults a month ago, 21% of the population is fully inoculated. In Alabama, the figure is just 19%. In Georgia, home of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, just 20% of the population is fully vaccinated.

.There are states where they feel they have hit the wall,. said Mike Fraser, the executive director of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials. .The folks that wanted it have found it. The folks that don’t want it are not bothering to find it..

The fear is that even as some regions race toward broad immunity, others will harbor coronavirus infections that could transform into more dangerous and more contagious variants, which could break through existing vaccinations.

That’s a lie they already got everybody to accept: herd immunity, as in, “so long as one vaxx-denier is alive on the planet, nobody is safe. Covid will infect him, mutate like a xenomorph into something monstrous and then more people will die and you’ll have to get vaxxed again like we’re already planning to do annually.”

A plan that requires 100.000% cooperation from the entirety of humanity is doomed to failure. But it’s not supposed to succeed. Success would mean no enemies left to blame , which is the Socialist version of antifragility.

Fraser said the soft ceilings in some states do not mean, ..OK, everybody, give up.” It.s: .What do we need to change? What do we need to pivot to?..

“What words will bring us victory?”

The CDC, for instance, is working with states to identify primary care doctors in neighborhoods with a high “social vulnerability index” to get them vaccines.

.It.s really going to be all about the ground game,. Choucair said. .It’s going to be about planning at the local level. It’s going to be about microplans. It’s going to be about county by county, ZIP code by ZIP code, census tract by census tract to make sure what are the strategies that work..

I would pay cash money to watch Doctor “Fasci” or his Punjabi stand-in walk into small-town Alabama to discuss mandatory “vaccine shots” with local white “hesitants”. Inflating our wealth away and dumping boatloads of migrants in our neighborhoods aren’t problems solvable with privately owned firepower, but a G-man at the door? That’ll put the pop in my popcorn!

Polls show that vaccine hesitancy is on the decline, as more people see their friends and relatives get vaccinated without incident. John Bridgeland, a founder and the chief executive of the COVID Collaborative, a bipartisan group of political and scientific leaders working on vaccine education, said the challenge was not being dogmatic in a public awareness campaign, but treating every person’s concern as unique and valid.

Peer pressure, that ancient damnation of souls. Only a person of very strong morals is able to stand against peer pressure. I experience this myself; so few people push back against the masking that I’ve hit a limit of what I’m willing to do, also. I’ve learned the hard way that there isn’t a legion of quiet, would-be dissidents waiting to back my play.

They will use peer pressure on you, yes. Already have… but…

But he added that “the last miles here are going to be the toughest..

…But the people who DO stand against peer pressure, who DO act on morality instead of self-interest or peer pressure… God built this Hellish reality for no other reason than to identify and cultivate that kind of stubborn loyalty to Truth and the God thereof.

.People have very legitimate concerns,. Bridgeland said, “and they need good answers from trusted people..

First use peer pressure. Maybe fake some friendship and sympathy. Then use Trusted Leaders.

Complicating such reassurances is rising concern about vaccine safety after the government’s decision to “pause” the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine while regulators investigate reports of rare blood clots among six female recipients.

Remember to hide the truth!

A CDC advisory panel is expected to meet on Friday to determine whether to place restrictions on use of the vaccine, which public health officials had expected to use in hard-to-reach communities, like homeless shelters.

In some states, there have been surprises. In Alabama, Harris said, officials prepared extensively to address vaccine hesitancy among African Americans and put .a lot of time into trying to build local relationships with trusted voices. . an effort that he said paid off. But officials did not anticipate such strong resistance from rural whites.

Homeless shelters are easy to reach. They have addresses, take money from the State and advertise their presence and services. If rural (conservative) white opposition came as a surprise, it’s only because they’re finally bothering to check.

“You privileged white people! Too many of you are still alive! It’s time for some equity and racial justice at your expense! Go to the back of the line for this lifesaving vaxx! Ah good, the badwhites left quietly. Those vermin know their place underneath our boot heel… *vaxx vaxx vaxx* Sigh, well, that was the last Wakandan on Earth. I guess we can’t put off giving Trump supporters the jab any longer. Line up, you slaver scumbags and Jesus freaks! …uh? …Where’d they go? Don’t they know we love them and are trying to help?”

Tell me that last paragraph didn’t remind you of a bipolar girlfriend better left forgotten.

In the meantime, Fraser said his organization was exploring ways to move away from mass vaccination clinics, which assume “everybody in the population is really chomping at the bit to get vaccinated,. toward “more retail public health,. in which state and local health departments and providers reach out directly to the unvaccinated, almost like a door-to-door campaign.

There’s a few ways to interpret “reach out directly to the unvaccinated” in an article titled “Nation Faces ‘Hand-to-Hand Combat’ to Get Reluctant Americans Vaccinated”. Let’s be optimistic and assume you aren’t allowed through the door without the vaxx. This will convince you that’s it’s medically safe.

The state has done polling to figure out how to reach that group, and learned that the techniques used to reach Black people were not likely to work with rural people who “are mistrustful of politicians in general and maybe state government in particular.” But, Harris said, they do trust doctors.

That’s some wishful thinking, there. Trump taking the jab was an effective spell on them. Doctor Birinderjeet, not so much.

Private employers may be the next pressure point. The private sector is eager to jump in and help educate employees . and even administer vaccines, said Kathryn Wylde, the president of the Partnership for New York City, the city’s leading business organization.

Ironically, that common denominator turned out to be “hate whitey”.

But at this point, mandating vaccination for employees does not seem to be on the table. .Employers feel that COVID has caused such stress on their people, they are reticent to put on any more pressure,. Wylde said.

Shirley Bloomfield, the chief executive of NTCA . The Rural Broadband Association, which represents small, rural telecommunications companies, has been working with the White House on pushing her members to get the vaccine. .One of my CEOs is paying everyone $100 to get the vaccine,. she said. “But I think we all have to be a little more creative because we’re seeing that saturation point..

Teamwork And Making Sure That You All Paddle In the Same Direction - Broadband Beat

She was probably pretty before choosing a career in telecom over a loving family. I see a wedding ring but don’t tell me she’s not a feminist.

Even with broad public awareness campaigns, television commercials, and incentives like cash payments and personal time off, Bloomfield said vaccination rates among staffs at her member companies were topping out at about 50% to 60%.

All those spells… all that extra “education”… they aren’t working. Whatever could the next step be?

On top of that, Bloomfield said her members reported to her that as many as 15% of people in small towns were not showing up for their second shot. She attributed some of that to social media posts about side effects. .That doesn’t help us,. she said.

It also does not help that in a highly polarized nation, vaccination is still a topic of political debate. In Tennessee, for instance, Gov. Bill Lee, a Republican, has emphasized that vaccination is a personal choice, a message that Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease expert at Vanderbilt University, criticized as “not on the correct wavelength” amid a pandemic that threatens all of society.

The next step was in the title of this article:

Nation Faces ‘Hand-to-Hand Combat’

and ‘while going door-to-door’. Not hard to read between those lines but fortunately, La Revolucion got put on hold again for yet another truth-spill clean-up. Which is it, D.C.? Are you going to tell the proles that everything is great, or that it’s our fault?

California restaurant chain promises year of free burgers if fans get tattoos

h ttps://www.foxnews.com/food-drink/california-restaurant-chain-promises-year-of-free-burgers-if-fans-get-tattoos

By Janine Puhak, 19 April 2021

How far would you go for a year of free food?

Hmm. I’ve done punch cards and coupon books. A tee shirt, hat or a bumper sticker, maybe.

A California-based burger chain has pledged to serve a select number of superfans its signature sandwich for a year, if they get a permanent tattoo for the restaurant’s milestone anniversary.

Farmer Boys operates nearly 100 locations in California, Arizona and Nevada, serving farm-fresh food in a fast-casual setting, per an about page. In celebration of its 40th anniversary this year, the chain has partnered with two tattoo shops to ink the most dedicated customers with some branded body art, in exchange for a year of free burgers.

Through May 21, Famer Boys fans over age 18 can sign up for a free tat, choosing from one of three color designs measuring 2-by-2 inches. From there, an undisclosed number of entrants will be chosen for ink at The Honorable Society in West Hollywood and Rockin Ink Tattoo in Las Vegas. After that, the superfans can score a free burger a week for 52 weeks, according to promotion rules.

It’s come to this, then. First it was loyalty cards, then it was “download the app”, now the executives strap you down and brand yo’ ass.

For those more wary of going under the needle, the chain has offered another option. For a limited time at participating restaurants, Farmer Boys will offer temporary tattoos which can be used to unlock a special offer in the burger chain’s app.

Is that what psychologists call “breaking down resistance”? Does it really work like a barcode on the human body would?

“As we reflect on the last 40 years, we are overjoyed with the memories we have created with our loyal guests, franchisees, and team members” Larry Rusinko, vice president and chief marketing officer for Farmer Boys, said in a statement issued last week.

“We are celebrating this milestone by offering our Superfans the opportunity to pay homage to Farmer Boys and get free burgers for a year! Everyone can join the celebration, even those looking for a less permanent . but equally delicious . way to display their loyalty.”

The first Farmer Boys opened its doors in 1981 in Perris, Calif., and business has boomed ever since, according to company history.

This is not an offer that would be made by people who think human life is something sacred. The consequences of post-Christianity are coming fast and hard in Current-Year headlines.

“Due to the sheer volume of request, not all who send a query will receive an appointment,” the chain clarified on Instagram.

Innocent Chauvin Found Guilty

It’s not enough but all I can do, to go on record that Derek Chauvin is innocent and deserves none of the hysteria directed at him over the past year. God grant that he goes free on appeal–there’s an excellent chance because the mob typically loses interest beyond this point and the case against him is outrageously weak. Emphasis on outrage.

Of all the crooked cops in America, they had to go after a good one.

Now we’ll see if this act of human sacrifice appeases Burn Loot Maim enough to discourage their looting their own city, I doubt it but we’ll see tomorrow.

There’s a single New Jersey deli doing $35,000 in sales valued at $100 million in the stock market

h ttps://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/15/theres-a-single-new-jersey-deli-doing-35000-in-sales-valued-at-100-million-in-the-stock-market.html

By Jesse Pound, 16 April 2021

Hedge fund manager David Einhorn warned of dangers for retail investors that he sees in the market, and one of his main examples was a tiny New Jersey deli with a market capitalization of more than $100 million.

The Paulsboro, New Jersey-based Your Hometown Deli is the sole location for Hometown International, which has an eye-popping market value despite totaling $35,748 in sales in the last two years combined, according to securities filings.

Right off the bat, when a ((billionaire hedge fund manager)) feels threatened by a nothing business in Nowhere, New Jersey, it’s not about money. It’s about identity politics.

A brief bio from Wikipedia. Einhorn graduated Cornell with BA Government in 1991. He started his Greenlight Capital hedge fund in 1996 and over the next decade, managed a 26% rate of return on his investments. That right there is prima facie insider trading. From 2014-2018, his company fell $12b to $5.5b, which is more circumstantial evidence of insider trading: he lost his inside scoops and was forced to rely upon his innate competence instead of all his Jewish -banker relatives.

Even more evidence of that: Einhorn was convicted of insider trading by the UK in 2012. Yes, that WOULD have made his informants a bit more skittish.

“In May 2002, he gave a speech at the Sohn Investment Research Conference where he recommended shorting a mid-cap financial company called Allied Capital eventually disclosing that he himself had a substantial short position. The day after the speech the company’s stock went down by 20 percent.”

“In July 2007, Einhorn shorted Lehman Brothers stock, believing that Lehman had massive exposures to illiquid real estate investments…”

“…On October 17, 2011, Einhorn publicly announced his short position in Green Mountain Coffee Roasters stock. Prior to that date, the company’s share price had increased more than tenfold since March 2009, the third-biggest gain in the Standard & Poor’s Midcap 400 Index… Following Einhorn’s speech Green Mountain’s share price fell by 10 percent, closing that day at $82.50. A few weeks later on November 9, 2011, Green Mountain’s quarterly report missed analyst expectations and its stock price plunged to $43.71.”

He really likes taking huge shorts on companies just in time to make fat bank. Also, he’s a convicted inside trader who was allowed to continue playing the game. That’s the guy who is now complaining that a tiny deli is overvalued?

.Someone pointed us to Hometown International (HWIN), which owns a single deli in rural New Jersey … HWIN reached a market cap of $113 million on February 8. The largest shareholder is also the CEO/CFO/Treasurer and a Director, who also happens to be the wrestling coach of the high school next door to the deli. The pastrami must be amazing,. Einhorn said in a letter to clients published Thursday.

Uh-huh. *SOMEONE*. Just a passerby. Could’ve been anybody. There was no witch hunt.

Hometown, which appears to have begun trading in 2019, according to FactSet, has shares that trade over the counter and rarely has more than a few hundred shares change hands per day. Often, there are no trades logged in an entire trading day.

Still, the company’s market cap is just over $100 million, according to FactSet.

Hometown did not immediately return a request seeking comment made to the phone number listed in the company’s securities filings. A manager was not available to comment at the deli’s phone number.

According to the company’s latest 10-K filing, the company’s single location was closed from March 23 to September 8 of last year because of the coronavirus pandemic. During that time, the company’s stock price rose to $9.25 per share from $3.25 per share. It last traded at just under $14 per share.

The company sold 2.5 million shares last year and has about 60 total shareholders, according a filing.

That’s suspicious in its own right. My first guess would be that the shop is laundering money for the Jersey mafia and I wasn’t far wrong. Before I get to them, however, let’s cover Einhorn’s exact words in regards to Hometown Deli.

Many who would never support defunding the police have supported . and for all intents and purposes have succeeded . in almost completely defanging, if not defunding, the regulators. For the most part, quasi-anarchy appears to rule in markets… For the most part, there is no cop on the beat. It’s as if there are no financial fraud prosecutors; companies and managements that are emboldened enough to engage in malfeasance have little to fear.

Huh? An convicted-felon inside trader is complaining that there aren’t enough cops? Not enough enforcement?

Someone pointed us to Hometown International (HWIN), which owns a single deli in rural New Jersey. The deli had $21,772 in sales in 2019 and only $13,976 in 2020, as it was closed due to COVID from March to September. HWIN reached a market cap of $113 million on February 8. The largest shareholder is also the CEO/CFO/Treasurer and a Director, who also happens to be the wrestling coach of the high school next door to the deli. The pastrami must be amazing. Small investors who get sucked into these situations are likely to be harmed eventually, yet the regulators . who are supposed to be protecting investors . appear to be neither present nor curious. From a traditional perspective, the market is fractured and possibly in the process of breaking completely.

Even stranger. If “small investors” were investing megabucks without noticing that its annual gross sales is south of $22k then they’re too stupid for any number of financial police to defend. Read the prospectus, dumbass, and if you won’t then I have a solar farm you can invest in!

Another recent example is the investigation of Tether by the Office of the Attorney General of New York (OAG). Tether is a cryptocurrency that is always worth a dollar (the value is “tethered” to the dollar). Tether is one of the largest cryptocurrencies with about $40 billion outstanding, yet it has not been audited or regulated in any serious manner. In theory, Tether is supposed to have $1 of cash backing every Tether issued. Except it didn’t, at least when it was investigated. The OAG conducted a two-year probe and found that Tether deceived clients and the market by overstating reserves and hiding approximately $850 million of losses around the globe. Tether and its sponsor, Bitfinex, .recklessly and unlawfully covered up massive financial losses to keep their scheme going and protect their bottom lines,. said the OAG. Further, .Tether’s claims that its virtual currency was fully backed by U.S. dollars at all times was a lie..

I don’t do cryptocurrency. I looked into it and can’t get past most of them being fiat currencies with no State backing. Tether is obviously different if it’s 1-for-1 exchangeable with the dollar. But then, why bother with Tether? I looked up Bitfinex and it’s a Hong Kong financial institution registered in the U.S. Virgin Islands, which makes me suspect that Tether’s advantage was moving money internationally and anonymously.

Which helps explain how Bitfinex was repeatedly hacked into insolvency over the last decade. Swimming with the sharks and all that.

Did the OAG shut down Tether? Did anyone get arrested or even lose their job? Was the regulatory infrastructure changed to make sure this doesn’t happen again? No, of course not. The OAG assessed an $18.5 million penalty and Tether agreed to discontinue “any trading activity with New Yorkers.. It was as if Bernie Madoff had been told to pay a small fine and stop ripping off New Yorkers, but to go ahead and have fun with the Palm Beach crowd.

Alternatively, it was as if Einhorn had got caught cheating by the UK and been told to pay a small fine and stop ripping off Englishmen, but to go have fun with his fellow Semitic banker crowd.

Einhorn is upset that somebody in Hong Kong is winning at Einhorn’s game, on Einhorn’s turf.

End segue

Hometown reported more than $600,000 in expenses last year, up from about $154,000 in 2019. The company also reported a net cash gain of $2.2 million from financing activities, such as selling stock, in 2020.

Einhorn.s highlighting of Hometown comes as politicians, regulators and high-profile investors have publicly fretted about the boom in certain types of stocks over the past year.

As a new wave of retail investors joined the market in recent months, special purpose acquisition companies have launched at a record pace and some stocks, like GameStop and Discovery, have seen wild swings after being bid up by traders on Reddit or hedge funds.

Yeah, I bet Einhorn is pissed at the amateurs playing his favorite game of shorting stocks. But wait! this Gamestop connection is a headfake!

h ttps://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/15/hometown-international-nj-deli-owner-worth-millions-in-stock.html

Paul Morina, the principal of Paulsboro, New Jersey, High School, is listed in financial records as the president, CEO, CFO and more at a Nevada-incorporated company whose stock is trading at levels that give it a valuation more than $100 million.

The high school is next door to the deli so it makes sense for some teachers to pool resources for a side business. This Paul guy is nothing to me.

Hometown.s vice president and secretary is Christine Lindenmuth . a 46-year-old math teacher at Paulsboro High School, according to the SEC filing. Lindenmuth, who did not immediately respond to requests for comment, also does not appear to have any prior experience in food service.

Christine is nothing to me. Heck, I looked into incorporating myself just a few months ago for the tax benefits. I wouldn’t have saved enough money to offset for the mandatory filing fees but if Mark of the Beast happens then I might do it anyway to create a virtual ID.

The company’s chairman, according to the annual report, is Peter Coker Jr., who is listed as holding no Hometown International shares. Coker’s bio in the company’s annual report says the 1990 graduate of Lehigh University has been chairman of South Shore Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong-listed company, since 2013.

Hong Kong, you say? The same place as Bitfinex that Einhorn criticized in his very next paragraph?

Coker is INTERESTING to me.

It also says that Coker was the managing partner of Pacific Advisers, and was also a partner in a Shenzhen, China-based private equity firm called TDR Capital Investment Ltd. from 2009 to 2013.

.From 2006 to 2009, Mr. Coker served as Chairman of Global Trading Offshore Pte (Singapore),. the filing says. .From 2002 to 2005, Mr. Coker served as the Chairman of Wellington Securities (New Zealand). Mr. Coker served as an officer of the Bridge Companies prior to joining Wellington Securities (New Zealand) in 2002..

Coker.s father, North Carolina resident Peter Coker Sr., is listed on the SEC filing as owning 63,334 shares of common stock in Hometown International, with warrants for 1.26 million more shares.

Other owners of Hometown shares include Blackwell Partners LLC, Series A, which has an address in Hong Kong; and two other Hong Kong entities, Star V Partners LLC, and Maso Capital Investments Limited.

Four other companies or entities listed as Hometown International share owners are based in Macau, China.

Well, well. A tiny storefront in New Jersey is also a shell corporation for Chinese money getting funneled into the American stock exchanges.

You see what happened. After the Gamestop incident, the ((NYC hedge fund managers)) decided to circle the wagons looking for leaks, liabilities and (to them) suspicious behavior. Hometown Deli pinged that search for obvious reasons and now, Einhorn is leading the call to shut the Chinese out of their domestic rackets before the slant-eyes beat them at their own game.

Senator Josh Hawley Goes Nuclear!

It’s like I can breathe again! Finally, FINALLY, somebody in Clowngress introduced the blindingly-obvious idea that Big Tech is a monopoly that needs to be broken up.

Hawley introduces bill to trust-bust Big Tech

h ttps://www.theblaze.com/news/hawley-bill-trust-bust-big-tech

By Chris Pandolfo, 19 April 2021

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) on Monday introduced new legislation he says will “bust up” Big Tech companies, including Amazon and Google, by breaking up tech companies and strictly regulating what types of industries they can be involved with.

The “Bust Up Big Tech Act” would make it illegal for companies that offer search engines, marketplaces, and exchanges from competing with third-party vendors by selling, advertising, or promoting their own competing goods and services. Amazon, for example, would be prohibited from owning Amazon Marketplace and also selling Amazon products on the marketplace in competition with third-party sellers.

The bill would also ban tech companies from providing internet infrastructure services to other companies or hosting their websites online if they are already engaged in another type of business. Using Amazon as an example again, Hawley’s bill would make it illegal for Amazon to both own its marketplace and offer Amazon Web Services, which provides on-demand cloud computing platforms and other tech infrastructure to third parties.

Or to use another analogy, Costco would no longer be allowed to sell Costco-brand products in its stores, if I read the bill correctly. This is huge. Anything that decentralizes BigCorp is a win because it creates alternatives. There are good reasons that Socialists are violently opposed to people having choices.

The Federal Trade Commission would be empowered to enforce these new regulations. Additionally, state attorneys general and private citizens would be permitted to sue Big Tech companies that violate the law.

“Woke Big Tech companies like Google and Amazon have been coddled by Washington politicians for years,” Hawley said in a statement. “This treatment has allowed them to amass colossal amounts of power that they use to censor political opinions they don’t agree with and shut out competitors who offer consumers an alternative to the status quo.”

No shit, Sherlock, but what a pleasure it is to hear a sitting U.S. Senator actually say so. Some few Republicans are waking up to the idea that if sitting-President Trump can lose to cheaters then they aren’t going to get reelected, either. Not while the dead outnumber the living.

Hawley also introduced a bill along with Sens. Mike Lee (R-Utah), Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), and Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) to end Major League Baseball’s antitrust exemption in response to the League’s decision to move the All-Star Game out of Atlanta in protest of Georgia’s new election laws.

Are Republicucks actually learning to fight back? I will be watching with interest.

Mini-Rant

I’ve been busy at work. I got about ten minutes to rant. GO!

Roads are not racist. Dude, they’re black!

If Evil had any brains at all, they would worry about how their every fight is a victory before they even show up. Something something about enough rope to hang stuff with.

Skip the gun range. Learn to make art instead. They aren’t tearing down statues because they’re harmless so hurt them where it HURTS.

You know why few people miss America 2019? Because few people enjoyed America 2019. The men were working ever harder for ever less and the wimminz were spraying feelings like cat urine: without direction! Then the lockdowns came and the wimminz finally had a cause to bitch about, the Boomers felt better that the world was acting like it cared about them getting old and families finally had time for each other.

Nobody was happy about the rate of progress, either. You couldn’t sit down or take a vacation without either your brain or your tools going obsolete. People have had to try so hard for so long just to keep up that it’s no wonder grifting is as easy as saying “this is the new way we do it”.

If science ever proves the existence of God then humanity will return to witchcraft. This may have happened already.

Our leaders are trapped in their own webs of lies. The Yankees are still fighting the Civil War against the South, the Jews barricaded D.C. against any Nazis that might show up, feminists are freaked that Orange Man might grab her by the p*ssy and the pedophiles keep trying to make the cops go away forever.

Bill Gates made a serious effort to hold all life on Earth hostage with a sun shield just a few months ago. How long until he succeeds? This is a trillionaire who openly claims that we need 90% fewer humans on the planet and he’s obviously not doing nothing about that. Is there a single government that cares?

I have one question about the immigration threat. One question only: WHO IS SENDING THEM? They ain’t walking from Paraguay (or Syria!) on foot. They didn’t wake up one morning and decide USA would let them in if they showed up penniless and passport-less. Somebody promised them freebies if they came, somebody with enough reputation that they were believed, somebody with the resources to get them there. If I know South America, that means the Catholic Church, and by extension, I suspect the Jesuits. But no proof is showing up and no journalist is asking the One Question.

Time to work another weekend.

Pelosi Gonna Mess You Up

The silver lining to hardline-traitor administrations in government is that you don’t have to buy a separate ticket for the freak show. I didn’t know what peak “Capitol Riot” revisionism would look like until I heard Nancy Pelosi brag about how she was going to personally fight off the Trumpinistas when her bodyguards dragged her to safety instead.

Pelosi on Jan. 6: ‘They would have had a battle on their hands’ if the mob had caught her

h ttps://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2021/04/13/pelosi-jan-6-mob-would-have-had-battle-if-they-had-caught-her/7194674002/

By Susan Page & Ledyard King, 13 April 2021

On her 100th day as speaker of the 117th Congress, Nancy Pelosi discussed the dramatic events that opened her tenure, when a mob that stormed the Capitol wanted to kill her.

A gentle reminder that nobody was intentionally killed except an unarmed woman by a Capitol guard.

“That’s what they were setting out to do,” she told USA TODAY, if her security agents hadn’t managed to evacuate her from the House chamber in time. Asked if that frightened her, she replied, “Well, I’m pretty tough. I’m a street fighter. They would have had a battle on their hands.

Besides, she said with a laugh, lifting a foot clad in her classic 4-inch-high stilettos, “I would have had these” to use as weapons.

Nancy, you’re old and frail enough to play the lead in those “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” commercials for Baby Boomer life sign monitoring.

In a wide-ranging interview, Pelosi described a historic start for the new Congress and President Joe Biden, one “on par” in ambition and impact with the first 100 days of FDR and LBJ. She called Biden skilled in Washington politics…

…and bolder in policy than many expected. “Transformative and visionary and experienced,” she said.

But the Jan. 6 assault continues to cast a shadow.

Will there be a 9/11-style panel for Capitol riot?

She said she would soon introduce legislation to harden the Capitol’s security, indicating she would support the installation of retractable fencing to be deployed only when security threats demanded. She also suggested for the first time that she might move to establish a select committee to investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection if efforts to create a special 9/11-style commission failed.

She might want to wait until those 400 prosecutions are finished. They’re unraveling faster than a porcupine’s knitted sweater. Then again, that might be exactly her motivation for moving the proceedings behind closed doors.

.The one thing among our members that is consistent is . we must find the truth,” she said. While she has pushed for creation of an independent panel, she said that goal could also be reached through investigations by the standing committees of Congress, some now underway, or by a select committee.

A very select committee, free of oversight or third-party monitoring, because truth thrives in secrecy. You know what the problem is with Congress today? It doesn’t have judicial authority. And the problem with SCOTUS is it doesn’t have legislative authority. And the problem with the Presidency is it’s redundant with the Deep State.

She compared the prospective select committee to the controversial one established by a Republican majority to investigate the 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens.

That was a coverup committee. I was never happy with my knowledge about Benghazi. The world’s governments and media freaked out big-time for months on end, over what they would only describe as an ambassador who apparently couldn’t find Tripoli with a map and trusted the locals to protect him because why not.

I dug enough to discover that it wasn’t an embassy in Benghazi. It was a “trade delegation”. My suspicion is that after “regime-changing” Khaddaffi, President Obama was transferring his military supplies to ISIS in Syria and Stevens was the appointed cutout overseeing that… who got cut-out by a third party that I still haven’t identified. Which would mean that Obama was a state sponsor of international terrorism and not just an illegitimate President who illegally waged wars without the approval of Congress.

.It.s always an option,” she said. “It.s not my preference in any way. My preference would be to have a commission.” But that proposal has been stalled in partisan disputes over the scope and structure of the panel.

Her stated preference would be stabbing those Trump supporters with her stiletto heel, which isn’t funny anymore now that she’s fantasizing about doing it to innocent people locked in cages. End-stage female empowerment?

Congress has yet to act on the sweeping security recommendations delivered last month by retired Army Lt. Gen. Russel Honor?. His report calls for filling more than 200 vacancies in the Capitol Police force, adding another 854 more positions to address an evolving threat to lawmakers and staff, and integrating “systems of obstacles, cameras, sensors and alarms.”

“I can mess them up myself! I’m a tough street fighter! I need 1,054 more guards!” What Nancy really needs is a forced retirement into an isolated nursing home where she can eventually die unrepentant and unpunished for all her wicked deeds.

In Christianity, that is the worst fate possible.

Toxic Hesitant Masculinity

Good news! My carefully calibrated sensors have detected a groundswell of Normie irritation at continued lockdown measures! The giveaway is that feminists are beginning to bitch about men acting like men once again.

Covid vaccine hesitancy among men is its own public health issue

h ttps://www.msnbc.com/opinion/covid-vaccine-hesitancy-among-men-its-own-public-health-issue-n1263694

By Liz Plank, MSNBC Opinion Columnist, 10 April 2021

Last month, President Joe Biden dismissed the decision by governors in states including Texas and Mississippi to end mask mandates as “Neanderthal thinking..

Biden shows a lot of contempt for the people who literally voted 110% for him. Maybe he’s upset that they also voted 100% for the other guy.

.I.m reiterating my call for every governor, mayor and local leader to maintain and reinstate the mask mandate,. Biden later solemnly stated in a White House address.

Whether he knew it or not…

Anybody’s guess, really.

…Biden was pointing to a specific and revelatory trend in how some people are interacting with pandemic restrictions. Because “Neanderthal thinking” might be the best way to describe an apparent aversion to masks, health restrictions and vaccines that certain men are exhibiting, according to a Fairleigh Dickinson University poll of more than 6,000 adults across all 50 states.

A preppie private university.

Hold up there, Mizz Plank. You must be at least a hot six in order to continue criticizing men.

…Proceed. But this is a time-limited offer. (Did I just think with my little head?)

Neanderthal is a term we often jokingly use to describe people . men, normally . who act out destructive biological impulses without much thought, like the primitive Ice Age humans we learned about in school. It’s also used to jokingly connote rugged manliness.

They were primitive because they didn’t have iPods, not because they were impulsively destructive.

While studies earlier in the pandemic pointed to the way unhealthy behaviors like resistance to masks and hand-washing were more common in men in general, this data makes an important distinction: The problem isn’t men; it’s the men committed to a certain performance of masculinity.

.Men are more skeptical than women about COVID-19 vaccines and wearing face masks . but the real divide is between men who are trying to project masculinity and the men who aren.t,. Fairleigh Dickinson researchers wrote. .Men who assert a traditionally masculine gender identity are less likely to say that they.ll get the COVID-19 vaccine, more likely to say that it has side effects, more resistant to wearing face masks for protection, and more likely to say they have been diagnosed with COVID-19..

Except for the last, those are all excellent indicators of 1. wisdom, 2. courage and 3. an aversion to tyranny. But I repeat myself.

The survey also found that men who identify as “completely masculine” are nearly twice as likely to say wearing masks is “dangerous to the health of the wearer” and are predictably about three times more likely to report having been infected with the virus.

First they claim Christianity spreads disease, now they claim that being a man spreads disease. I sense a trend that Father God will not approve of.

The men who identify as the most masculine were also more likely to have attended a gathering of more than 10 people or hosted visitors at their residence during the pandemic. Almost half (43 percent) of “completely masculine” men reported they’ve had people over at their home recently; for other men, it was 36 percent (admittedly still not great . but better). While we know Covid-19 is the major health threat here, it appears our defunct definition of masculinity is a dangerous precondition for Covid-19 that we should be talking about.

That’s fair enough. Men get Coof more often because we don’t cower in our bedrooms. Yes, a certain willingness to take risks is masculine but she’s leaving the other half unsaid. “Yeah, I got da ‘Rona… I got better in a day or two.”

Many health care providers believe men aren’t biologically predetermined to partake in poor health behaviors that harm themselves and others but that the medical system overall can itself help perpetuate dangerous . in this case potentially fatal . concepts of masculinity.

Many health care providers haven’t noticed the gender ratios of both wingsuit pilots and drunks jumping off their rooftops. Even YouTube is smarter than these doctors!

The HIV/AIDS crisis is a heartbreaking example of this. In 2017, Michel Sidib?, then the executive director of UNAIDS, said in a statement that “there is a blind spot for men ” men are not using services to prevent HIV or to test for HIV and are not accessing treatment on the scale that women are..

Barbie, we simply don’t have problems like you wimminz have problems.

Because an HIV or AIDS diagnosis is often perceived as being effeminate, men are reportedly less likely to get tested and treated. According to a 2015 report, a stunning 70 percent of men who died from AIDS-related illness in South Africa never sought treatment.

Now we’re seeing the same mistakes being made with Covid-19 prevention, where ideals of masculinity are once again presenting a severe risk factor for men.

There is nothing LESS masculine than playing the bitch. Also, why is she quoting a 2015 survey to discuss the AIDS crisis of the 1980s? It’s not a crisis today if Sodomites don’t want to bother getting treated.

To fix it, some health care providers say, we need to talk about it. Some providers want to see public health slogans evolve to address these dangerous gendered expectations we have of men.

First they try to educate you.

.The problem is (for reasons not completely understood), male sex is a very real risk factor and I think messaging should include it more,. Dr. Darien Sutton, an emergency physician, told me. .Unfortunately in many ways it feels that masculinity and vulnerability have to be mutually exclusive, and it results in many feeling like they have to compromise their use of one of the best methods of protections..

Then they bring in Trusted Leaders to sway you. Although I don’t see it working in this reimagining of women demanding that men be vulnerable. THAT plague hit in the Nineties.

Sutton believes that although new conversations about vulnerability have been a central theme in this pandemic, there hasn’t been a concerted effort to make space for men, who are discouraged from expressing it.

Man: “I got Coof last month. No big deal. Didn’t tell anybody.”

Woman: “OHMIGAWD YOU’RE A WALKING DISEASE! How can you be so careless and selfish?”

Man: “Huh? This was last month. You’ll be fine.”

Woman: “NOOOOOOO!!!!!”

If anything proves that society wants to get back to normal, it’s women returning to complaining about men being men instead of sucking on their face diapers like pacifiers.

While we knew that support for the vaccine followed partisan lines, with Republican men reportedly leaning the most anti-vaccine, the Fairleigh Dickinson survey gives us a glimpse into how men’s relationship with their masculinity isn’t uniform or fossilized. Rather, like all gender identity, it’s evolving . which also means it can be changed.

And then, if they can’t educate you or trick you, they try to forcibly change you.

It might be time to start complicating the way we talk about men and let go of the myth that men’s behaviors are determined by biology rather than how they perceive themselves.

Some myths are true.

Meanwhile, reports indicate we’re on the precipice of a possible fourth surge of Covid-19 with a spike in hospitalizations across 25 states.

A surge that can only be avoided by total government control of society? Barbie’s gender might not be female but it sure is stupid.

Maintaining smart preventative habits like masks and limiting indoor gatherings is more important than ever, especially as deadlier and more infectious Covid-19 variants spread. We can’t afford to let a thing like toxic masculinity continue to infect us.

I hear that double-gagging, err masking, can prevent that. Meanwhile and unlike feminists, men have friends that we actually like.

We also can’t afford to ignore the fact that when it comes to Covid-19 at least, a man’s perception of his gender seems to be a better predictor of his choices than his actual gender. Men are not a monolith; in fact, the stark gender differences with men’s and women’s behaviors when it comes to health fade away with men who have a more flexible definition of masculinity.

Gender is most often discussed as a women’s issue. But men have a complex gender identity, too.

It.s not too late for Covid-19 vaccine public messaging and all of us to start acknowledging it.

Woman: “Stop what you’re doing and listen to my insecurities, you reckless Neanderthal!”

Man: “Ugh, I need a new girlfriend.”

Hot Christianity?

There’s lots of talk about lukewarm Christianity but rarely talk about what “hot” Christianity might be. The times I see it addressed, it’s often in terms such as “raise kids” and “find a like-minded community”. While those are fine goals, those are the Christian equivalent of “sin x = 0”. It is true for an infinite set of values for x but not true for a larger infinite set of values for x.

The Time For Lukewarm Christianity is Over

h ttps://news.gab.com/2021/04/03/the-time-for-lukewarm-christianity-is-over/

By Andrew Torba, 3 April 2021

Brothers and Sisters,

For many Americans Christianity has become a rapidly deconstructed fragment of their actual identity. People refer to themselves as a “Christian” when asked about matters of faith, but you won’t find them openly proclaiming Christ as their central identity.

Apostasy is a problem today, yes.

This Palm Sunday I was baptized as we are commanded by Christ in Matthew 28:19. I invite you to watch my baptism and testimony here. I pray that it inspires even one soul to return to Christ and commit their lives to Him.

I’ll take it on faith today that he’s Christian. Really, I shouldn’t be posting at all I’m so busy. Summer work season is early!

Unfortunately many American Christians have adopted a secular human worldview and are living lives similar to the way I was in my early twenties. They are embracing demonic critical theory and the “woke” gospel instead of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Why are they doing that? Serious question, and the old answer of “evil is fun” no longer applies. They’re observably miserable losers willing to burn the world because… well, frankly, the world never gave a damn about them. Fatherless, indentured and manipulated people are not going to embrace Christ if the Church says He has nothing to offer except a lifetime of misery for the benefit of future generations who won’t even remember you.

Even I would not have signed up for that.

Instead of worshipping God, they worship idols in the form of celebrities, sports players, and politicians. They value material “stuff” over the fruits of the Spirit. They seek comfort and fleeting pleasure over the suffering and courage it takes to live an unapologetic and authentic Christian life. They are lukewarm Christians.

The time for lukewarm Christianity is over. Christians need to rise up and proclaim the name of Jesus Christ the King of Kings to the world. We are the supermajority in The West and despite the fear mongering that isn’t going to change anytime soon.

The Church is dead, Mr. Torba. We don’t have allies hidden everywhere in plain sight. You can’t consider all the hysterical Covidians and still believe that Christians are calling the shots in society, to say nothing of family law.

It is false guilt if not outright gaslighting to claim that the only reason evildoers are winning is because we (meaning you, chump) aren’t waving the flag hard enough. There’s no community to maintain, few families to raise, and that is not the fault of us believers.

That’s okay. Christians have lost many, many times in both Scripture and history. The Christian faith is not calibrated to foster success in the mortal world. At the same time, it is not something useless until after you’re dead and that’s where I’m headed with this fisking.

We are the ones establishing nuclear families. We are the ones bringing up our children to know and love the Lord. We are the ones building sovereign businesses and infrastructure. We are the ones with a future worth fighting for. We are reformers, builders, and pioneers.

Great if you can do it–Torba gets my respect for running Gab–but worldly success is not the only proof of devotion.

The entire coalition of the demonic critical theory ideology is filled with self-centered atomized individuals who need Christ. They chose lust over love, greed over grace, and pride over humility. This never ends well and it will not survive the hourglass of history.

What’s wrong with being selfish? I’m a Christian BECAUSE I’m selfish. Having been reasonably convinced that God is real and does not approve of habits that I find astonishingly hard to give up, I made the selfish decision to escape Hell. Perhaps my motivation should have been “love and devotion to my Creator led me to kumbaya and Shangri-La” but it wasn’t. Alas, I’m a bastard who actually needs that Savior.

And so my journey of divine selfishness began.

The way we [break the Enemy’s current strongholds] is by going all in, taking a leap of faith, and living fully for Christ. There’s no room or time for lukewarm. The Enemy is expecting and conditioning you to be lukewarm. When you are lukewarm you are vulnerable. Your children are vulnerable. Our country and indeed The West itself is vulnerable.

Cut the cable cord. Cancel Netflix. Delete your Big Tech accounts. If at all possible find a way to homeschool your children. If that is not possible make sure you are spending time in God’s Word daily. If your children are not raised to have a Biblical worldview the Enemy will most certainly see to it that they are raised with their demonic secular humanism worldview. What is the best way to raise up your children with a Biblical worldview? Live it yourself. Be the example.

Living. Fully. For. Christ. Sounds great but when I tried to do that (as told by many elders who turned out to be Cucks if not frauds), what does Christ want accomplished? A theocratic nation? Tried that, didn’t work. Great Commission? Finished in our lifetimes, after which God let the Church implode… maybe just coincidence. Lots of children? They’re a blessing but God directly sanctioned (and recommended) not having kids if it would be a hardship.

What does living fully for Christ look like?

It.s so important to not sink into despair right now. We serve the Creator of the Universe. Trust His Plan. Christians need to play the long game and we need to start being strategic about our plan to recapture the control of our countries. That begins with the end of lukewarm Christianity.

No, “prayer of Jabez”-style heresies of world domination and control are not at all what Jesus is about.

So my traveler, here you are, salvation in hand. God has much to say about how you live but little about to what purpose. In the absence of direction, you get to choose, after which you will be tested.

I Corinthians 3:11-15. “…No one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved.even though only as one escaping through the flames.”

There it is. You don’t have to be thinking about centuries down the road and fathering the next dynasty or whatever. God has given you THIS hour of history full of people alive RIGHT NOW; what do you do with it? What do you want to do? Who do you want to be?

And that is the secret of “living fully for Christ” or alternatively, being a Hot Christian. The present day gives us opportunities and issues; how we respond to them gives us the chance to play a part in our own Creation as spiritual beings. Our duty this hour is not to huddle through a twilight between theocratic societies so that future generations can worship God. Our duty *is* this hour, defining ourselves with the use of our current, unique situations.

My plan for eternity is to be fun, grateful and useless. Where I live, I’ve no allies to defend against evil with. I’ve little space for stockpiling or a family, to say nothing of decent women for the latter. Health problems have begun limiting my productivity. But there’s a lot that I can be grateful about, and fun entertainments to be enjoyed, so I do that. Got a couple specific hobbies, too, that will probably follow me into future ages. I won’t be any Defender Of the Faith like Canada’s Pastor James Coates but if you want a wisecracking sidekick then yo!

That is how you live for Christ. You do you, with what God has given you, with an eye to the fact that much of what you decide will be of eternal significance.

The tolerance of the generations before us has led to the subversive takeover of every facet of society and even the faith by the global elite. That does not mean that they cannot be defeated. I believe that God has a plan to do so, but it will take the organized, peaceful, and longterm commitment and effort of His people to accomplish this. We must never again tolerate evil and the spirit of the antichrist in our culture, governments, education systems, homes, and our own hearts.

That’s the institutional Christian talking. One who sees no Heaven except as a continuation of life on Earth. One who thinks God’s plans will fail if believers don’t do enough. I believe the truth of eternity will be closer to the book of Genesis, in which you have trivial incidents cascading into history-altering patterns.

The future will not be like the past.

Today on this Easter Sunday we remember the hope, grace, forgiveness, and salvation of our risen Savior. We will forge ahead into the darkness and be not afraid, for our God will always be victorious and our faith rests in the eternal life that awaits us in His Kingdom.

The first time Christ came, He was the lamb to be slaughtered. The second time will be the Lion of Judah, and Christ will be rocking every cheat code He wrote into reality. Similarly, He has not revealed what we will be postmortem… but I think He would have said so if it was going to be the Same Old or a One Size Fits All.

“Despair is a sin”, bah, what kind of motivation is that? The motivation of somebody who has nothing to offer except misery. That is not Christianity. The next time you see somebody struggling with what he’s supposed to do in Current Year, try this instead: What do you want to do and be?

The Vaxx Virgins Shall Be Fed To the Volcano

Science must have proven the existence of God because humanity is returning to witchcraft at an astonishing rate. We begin with the eruption of a Caribbean volcano… nothing too unusual.

Explosive eruption rocks volcano on Caribbean’s St. Vincent

h ttps://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/st-vincent-evacuate-thousands-under-volcano-threat-n1263597

By The Associated Press and Wilson Wong, 9 April 2021

Better than the murder hornets and firenadoes of 2020, I guess.

The La Soufri?re volcano on the eastern Caribbean island of St. Vincent erupted early Friday, sending nearly a six-mile high plume of ash into the air hours after residents were ordered to evacuate the area, officials said.

Photos and videos captured clouds of smoke coming out of the volcano about 8:40 a.m. as a thin layer of gray ash appeared to cover the surrounding area.

The volcano last erupted in 1979, and a previous eruption in 1902 killed some 1,600 people. La Soufri?re, standing at 3,864 feet above sea level, also erupted in 1718, 1812 and 1814, according to the Seismic Research Centre.

No casualties in 1979 because of advance warning from vulcanologists. That’s great, they got this down to a science.

“At 8:41 am this morning 9-4-21 an explosive eruption began at La Soufri?re volcano in St. Vincent. This is a culmination of the seismic activity that began on April 8. The eruption is ongoing and more information will be shared as things progress.” . UWISeismic Research (@uwiseismic) April 9, 2021

The latest one followed mandatory evacuation orders issued Thursday for people who live near the volcano. Officials planned to place them aboard cruise ships, send them to nearby islands or take them to shelters elsewhere in St. Vincent that are outside the danger zone.

Roughly 16,000 people live in the red zone and will need to be evacuated, Joseph said.

Standard evacuation procedure. Nothing can go wrong… just another dramatic yet local headline…

Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves said in a press conference that people have to be vaccinated if they go aboard a cruise ship or are granted temporary refuge in another island.

Wait, WHAAAT?

He said two Royal Caribbean cruise ships are expected to arrive by Friday and a third one in the coming days, as well as two Carnival cruise ships by Friday. Islands that have said they would accept evacuees include St. Lucia, Grenada, Barbados and Antigua.

St. Vincents has not been a hotbed of plague. I doubt volcanos spread Coof. And yet, the prime minister made evacuations dependent upon vaccinations that don’t even prevent Coof.

Only the VACCINATED will be saved? Confusion after St. Vincent PM says only those with Covid jab can flee VOLCANO on cruise ships

h ttps://www.rt.com/news/520696-vincent-volcano-evacuation-vaccinated/

As a volcanic eruption cast a pall of ash over the Caribbean island of St. Vincent, tens of thousands fled . but eyebrows were raised after the island nation’s PM said they weren’t going anywhere without a Covid shot.
The La Soufriere volcano on the eastern Caribbean island of St. Vincent erupted on Friday, sending a column of ash 10km into the sky. With some 16,000 people living in the “red zone” near the volcano, the authorities had been scrambling to put together evacuation plans in the hours leading up to the blast.

For viewers following the evacuation effort through television news reports, one detail of the plan may have stood out. .Cruise ships are evacuating people from the island,. CBS News. Norah O.Donnell announced on Friday, adding that “only those vaccinated against Covid” would be allowed to leave.

The clip, which has since raised some eyebrows online, turned out to be factually correct. St. Vincent and the Grenadines. prime minister, Ralph Gonsalves, did announce in a press conference that evacuees would need to receive a Covid shot before boarding any of the two Royal Caribbean cruise ships and two Carnival Cruise Line’s vessels that arrived on Friday.

Furthermore, Gonsalves said that the neighboring islands of St. Lucia, Grenada, Barbados, and Antigua would accept evacuees, but only if they had been vaccinated.

My first thought was that the cruise liners are forcing this requirement upon him.

However, despite Gonsalves. announcement, neither Royal Caribbean nor Carnival Cruise Line have mentioned anything about keeping unvaccinated passengers off their ships.

Nope. It’s entirely upon him, then.

Further complicating matters is the fact that St. Vincent received its first shipment of vaccines only two days before the eruption. Throughout the pandemic, St. Vincent and the Grenadines has recorded only 1,789 cases of Covid-19 and 10 deaths, according to figures from the World Health Organization.

They avoided the No-See-It plague by putting their children in masks and chains and totally not by being a sunny backwater that would have been fine regardless. Or by vaxxing, apparently.

On the one hand, only about 20% of the island needs evacuating (thus far) so there won’t be a “Left Behind” scenario. On the other hand, they didn’t hire those cruise ships because they have infrastructure to house the refugees.

h ttps://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/covid-hampers-st-vincent-evacuation-amid-volcanic-eruption/ar-BB1fs33s

While the cruise ships are prepared to shuttle people to safe sites, they’re not sufficiently staffed to provide evacuees temporary lodging, Gonsalves said. Royal Caribbean Cruises and Carnival Corp. both have ships in the region to support the effort. In an emailed statement, Carnival said it was not making vaccinations a requirement for this humanitarian mission.

As we say in Dungeons & Dragons, they made their save versus stupid.

Even so, Gonsalves said residents across the Caribbean had been offering their homes as temporary shelters.

The country is also setting up emergency shelters.

.On this dangerous road to Jericho, we have good Samaritans,. he said, wiping away tears.

Were those tears of joy that so many people know that the Plandemic is a lie, tears of rage that he didn’t get to play God or tears of fear that his handlers will be displeased?

It’s hard to credit this level of imbecility on the part of an elected official. I searched for a motive and found this:

Gonsalves: Govt may soon be unable to pay salaries

h ttps://www.nationnews.com/2021/04/08/gonsalves-govt-may-soon-unable-pay-salaries/

By sherrylynclarke, 8 April 2021

KINGSTOWN, St Vincent . If the prevailing economic situation continues, Government may be unable to pay salaries and benefits, Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves said on Wednesday.

.I say this with all honesty, the way things are going. in one or two months. the government may not have the $30 million every month to pay civil servants and to pay the NIS contributions to civil servants, those who are pensionable to pay the NIS contributions for current, and to pay salaries and wages,. Gonsalves said on NBC Radio.

He said while his government has held things together economically “through all kinds of difficulties., there is now .a real pressure on..

.We saw in the first month in January. revenue collections drop by $15 million. We recouped in February. Things are even-steven between February this year and February last year. But we recouped because there were a couple of big alien landholding licence transactions in Mustique, where we collect for each of those big transactions. roughly 17 per cent of the value and they were very big ones.

.There are a couple more in the pipeline. In fact. I have to call the people to expedite because it means money . I’m talking about the public servants. to get these things quickly,. Gonsalves said.

He made the comments as he again appealed to public sector workers, and residents generally, to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

So far, the government has administered 11 000 doses of the vaccine, which is about 11 per cent of the population. Officials were hoping that approximately 50 000 people would have gotten the jab by this month, vaccine availability permitting.

The picture clears. His tourism-based economy is down to its last legs, just like most other famous tourist destinations, and Gonsalves hopes that forcing the jab upon the entire island will be enough that his overlords permit him to reopen for visitation.

I use the term ‘overlords’ for want of a better one. I don’t think Gonsalves is receiving orders from a mysterious cabal of Rockefellers and Rothschilds. I think… and this is purely from observation, do not ask for a reason… I think Gonsalves is afraid to open for tourism without the blessing of the World Health Organization, and maybe a couple of its prophets also. I think he will suffocate his homeland with lockdowns until it dies and is sold to foreigners and he personally is escorted out the door in disgrace, weeping for his people and his homeland, before he finds enough guts in his useless meat sack to follow neighboring Florida’s example and JUST DO IT. JUST… OPEN… FOR… BUSINESS!!!!

This stalled evacuation is the result of the government trying to coerce the vaxx upon its people in return for permission to exist. Permission from… nobody in particular… and that’s the scariest part of the whole mess.

Doormen fired for failing to intervene in anti-Asian attack

h ttps://www.breitbart.com/news/doormen-fired-for-failing-to-intervene-in-anti-asian-attack/

By AP, 6 April 2021

Used to be (in the Eighties), police would tell you to not get involved in violent fights. Call the cops, sure, they’re paid for that. Watch and take notes, go ahead. But don’t intervene. Here’s a spicy one from 2016:

Segue

h ttps://www.cbsnews.com/news/police-man-killed-trying-to-intervene-in-domestic-violence/

Officials say when a retired Marine witnessed a woman get shot by her husband, he pulled out his own gun and attempted to stop the man from getting away, but was then shot and killed by the suspect, reports CBS DFW.

Suspect Ricci Bradden confronted his wife in the parking lot of the Walgreens where she works before allegedly shooting her in the leg, according to police. She was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment and is expected to recover.

Police believe Bradden was fleeing the scene when Anthony “T.J.” Antell walked up to Bradden’s vehicle, pointed his gun and directed the suspect to stop.

Police say Bradden, who is an Army veteran, has admitted to swatting Antell’s gun out of his hand and then shooting Antell. The father of three, whose wife witnessed the shooting, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Bradden was taken into custody about two hours after the shooting.

The Marine was the hero and the Army won the fight. The lesson here is if you get involved in a fight, you gotta be ready to FIGHT. Antell pulled a gun on a violent guy but didn’t shoot when he had the chance. Don’t get involved? Okay. Kill the perp? If you’re willing to take the risk. Get involved, draw a gun then try for a peaceful solution? Stupid.

Which brings us to today’s SMART people! In New York City of all places.

End segue

NEW YORK (AP) . Two New York City apartment building workers have been fired for failing to help an Asian American woman as she was being violently attacked on the sidewalk outside, the building’s management company said Tuesday.

Surveillance video of the March 29 attack near Times Square showed that the doormen didn’t step outside and approach the woman until more than a minute after the violence stopped and the assailant walked away.

Smart! They did nothing wrong. There was a bad, violent situation that they weren’t prepared for so they buttoned up and just watched.

The men watched from the lobby as 65-year-old Vilma Kari was repeatedly kicked and stomped, the video showed. One of them closed the building’s door as Kari lay on the ground seconds after the attack ended.

The building’s management company, The Brodsky Organization, initially suspended the doormen pending an investigation. That investigation was completed on Tuesday and the doormen were fired, the company said.

THEY WERE FIRED FOR *NOT* RISKING THEIR LIVES?!

.While the full lobby video shows that once the assailant had departed, the doormen emerged to assist the victim and flag down an NYPD vehicle, it is clear that required emergency and safety protocols were not followed,. the company said in a statement.

What the hell kind of safety protocol would say “unlock the door and fling yourselves into a violent confrontation”? Per their website, “For 70 years, The Brodsky Organization has been building and managing properties in New York City’s most desirable neighborhoods. Nathan Brodsky began rehabilitating brownstones and apartment buildings in Greenwich Village in 1947. The Brodsky Organization has since grown into an intergenerational family-run business, continued by a second generation, Daniel Brodsky, and a third, Dean Amro, Alexander Brodsky, and Thomas Brodsky…

And to confirm, the wife of Papa Brodsky’s maiden name was Markowitz. This is Jews selling the Narrative of anti-Asian violence. I’m not sure what their goal is… continuing to balkanize America into identity groups, most likely… but the doormens’ termination is a purely political move.

The Brodsky Organization also pledged to give all building services employees training on emergency response protocols, anti-bias awareness and bystander intervention.

The doormen’s union, SEIU 32BJ, said the workers are challenging their terminations under a grievance process outlined in their collective bargaining agreement. The process can take months, the union said.

.We believe we must root out systemic racism in all its forms,. 32BJ SEIU President Kyle Bragg said in a statement. .We believe that all union workers, especially workers of color who are often the subject of unfair treatment on the job, have a right to a fair process as outlined in their contract..

Methinks the ((Brodsky Organization)) picked a bad fight, but I suppose they have the money to pay it off if it goes too badly.

Brandon Elliot, a 38-year-old parolee convicted of killing his mother nearly two decades ago, was charged with assault and attempted assault as hate crimes. He is scheduled to be arraigned on a felony indictment on April 21. His lawyers have urged the public to .reserve judgment until all the facts are presented in court..

Where’s Mommy?

Kari, who emigrated from the Philippines several decades ago, was attacked outside a luxury apartment building while walking to church. She suffered serious injuries including a fractured pelvis and spent a day in the hospital.

Kari.s daughter, Elizabeth Kari, posted Sunday on a fundraising webpage she set up for her mother’s care that Vilma Kari “has been resting these past few days and wants to send her best as your energy, prayers, and thoughts have reached her and our family..

Filipino by birth, feminist by choice. It warms my heart to see these New Americans working our corrupt system for all it’s worth. But not all that the Brodskys are worth. That might be Round Two.

Hey, wait. Are we counting Filipinos as Asians now? I thought they were Pacific Islanders. Is the supply of Asian NYC victims not matching the demand for hate crimes?

The attack, among the latest in a national spike in anti-Asian hate crimes, drew widespread condemnation and raised alarms about what appeared to be the failure of bystanders to help. Police said no one called 911 and that patrol officers driving by came upon Kari after she was assaulted.

Elizabeth Kari said that a person across the street who was not seen on surveillance video helped by screaming to distract the attacker.

Yay, Good Samaritan!

A widely seen snippet of the surveillance video ended as the attacker was walking away from Kari. Elizabeth Kari said that the attacker was crossing the street and heading toward the bystander who screamed at him.

Run, Good Samaritan!

That person has remained anonymous, she said.

Smart, Good Samaritan!

And of course, the mayor weighed in. Anything to look good for the next election cycle.

h ttps://apnews.com/article/65-year-old-asian-woman-assaulted-nyc-street-692b82db37efae29d12e7fa638eb2e1d

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio called the video of the attack “absolutely disgusting and outrageous” and said it was “absolutely unacceptable” that witnesses did not intervene. .I don’t care who you are, I don’t care what you do, you’ve got to help your fellow New Yorker,. de Blasio said Tuesday at his daily news briefing.

Help your fellow New Yorker? Isn’t that an oxymoron?

.If you see someone being attacked, do whatever you can,. he said. .Make noise. Call out what’s happening. Go and try and help. Immediately call for help. Call 911. This is something where we all have to be part of the solution. We can’t just stand back and watch a heinous act happening..

Of course we can and it’s often the prudent choice, too.

Mayoral candidate Andrew Yang, the son of Taiwanese immigrants, said the victim “could easily have been my mother.” He too criticized the bystanders, saying their inaction was “exactly the opposite of what we need here in New York City..

No, Yang. White people aren’t the most racially aware people on the planet but we can usually tell the difference between a Filipino and a Taiwanese. Although I now see why anti-Asian hate crimes are on the rise: Asian ethnic factions are muscling in on the Yankees and Jews. They didn’t write the rules of Knockout Game but they’re better able to play it to win than white people are.

Hopefully the doormens’ union will, too, because they’re innocent.

Ronald Sandlin Exposes D.C. Brutality

Now that the D.C. witch hunt for Trump supporters has collected upwards of 400 arrested defendents, it’s entering Phase Two: persecution. Sandlin is the accused blowing the whistle on it. First off, who is he?

Ronald Sandlin

Whoa. Not what I was expecting a Trump supporter to look like.

Ronald Sandlin biography: 13 things about US Capitol riot suspect from Las Vegas, Nevada

h ttps://conandaily.com/2021/02/19/ronald-sandlin-biography-13-things-about-us-capitol-riot-suspect-from-las-vegas-nevada/

By Marky O’Brien, 19 February 2021

He is originally from Tampico, Tamaulipas, Mexico.

REALLY not a typical Trump supporter.

He lived in Memphis, Tennessee and Long Beach, California before moving to Las Vegas, Nevada.

Come to California to start a new life. Leave it because the old one was better.

On July 19, 2018, he uploaded a YouTube video of himself discussing hard hitting copywriting strategies for the AWOL Elite Conference 2018.

My Internet search turned up a bicycle.

In 2018, he was cited for driving with an expired California driver’s license and expired license plates. In 2020, he was cited for driving without a valid license and for holding a cellphone to his face while driving. In the same year, he lived with his parents for several months in Memphis.

One of them less-legal Mexicans, I’d guess. Why did the Deep State finger him for a white nationalist?

On December 23, 2020, he referenced the crossing of the Rubicon River in Italy in 49 BC in a Facebook post. He wrote, .Who is going to Washington D.C. on the 6th of January? I’m going to be there to show support for our president and to do my part to stop the steal and stand behind Trump when he decides to cross the rubicon. If you are a patriot I believe it’s your duty to be there. I see it as my civic responsibility. If you’re going comment below or PM me so we can meet up..

Maybe they did a keyword search? Going forward, people maybe shouldn’t repeat certain phrases on Big Media.

On December 31, 2020, he took to Facebook to announce that he was “organizing a caravan of patriots” who were going to Washington D.C., USA to “stand behind. Trump. He shared a link of the GoFundMe page asking for donations for him, Josiah Colt and Nathaniel J. DeGrave and said the three of them had already booked and paid for their trip to Washington, D.C. On January 3, 2020, he revealed on Facebook that their GoFundMe page was deleted.

Heehee. I bet it only lasted four days because “please help me fund this trip that I’ve already paid for!”

On January 2, 2021, he wrote on Facebook that in 2020, he had a “huge financial blow,. .got dumped. by his fianc?, crashed his motorcycle and lost his grandfather.

That killed the mirth.

Wearing a bright orange sweatshirt, black rimmed glasses and a baseball cap while carrying a backpack and a small bag, he went to the U.S. Capitol building in Washington, D.C., USA on January 6, 2021. That day, Trump’s supporters breached the building while a joint session of Congress was certifying the vote of the Electoral College and affirming Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential election. He fought with police and smoked marijuana while inside the building.

Smoking marijuana is why I would have arrested him, but the hardline Lefties charging him with that? Hypocrites!

A Federal Bureau of Investigation special agent filed a criminal complaint, which U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia M. Faruqui signed on January 20, 2021. On January 28, 2021, he parked his truck outside of DeGrave’s apartment in Las Vegas. FBI agents arrested him there that day.

DeGrave is more what one would expect of a Trump supporter: white male, late 20s, enough family wealth that he can slack off to D.C. for a few days. Although unlike Sandlin, DeGrave was not charged with either hurting an officer or smoking a blunt in the Rotunda.

He was 31 years old when he was arrested on January 28, 2021. He was booked into the Henderson Detention Center in Henderson, Nevada. For his participation in the U.S. Capitol riot on January 6, 2021, he was charged with obstructing law enforcement engaged in official duties incident to civil disorder, obstructing law enforcement knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority, violent entry and disorderly conduct on U.S. Capitol grounds.

It’s not gonna stick. Half of any liberal-enclave jury will be 420-friendly, if you know what I mean, and more than half will be immigrant-friendly. That in addition to the usual objections.

During a detention hearing in federal court in February 2021, the judge told him he owes $500,000 in back taxes and he asked the judge to have mercy on him. In the same month, the I-Team found that no community where he is known to have resided can find a record of him voting in the 2020 U.S. presidential election.

The FBI could have simply handed him over to the tender mercies of the IRS. Instead… this:

Capitol riot defendant alleges beating by jail guards

h ttps://www.politico.com/news/2021/04/06/capitol-riot-defendant-alleges-beating-by-jail-guards-479413

By Josh Gerstein and Kyle Cheney, 6 April 2021

Tensions are running high between guards and inmates at a D.C. jail housing many of the defendants in Jan. 6 cases, with at least one of those prisoners alleging that he was brutally beaten by correctional officers.

For weeks, Capitol riot defendants being held in Washington have complained that they are locked in their cells with virtually no human contact for 23 hours a day. But a startling, graphic account offered publicly in court on Tuesday by one such inmate, Ronald Sandlin, went further: alleging that guards have subjected those charged in the Jan. 6 events to violence, threats and verbal harassment.

.Myself and others involved in the Jan. 6 incident are scared for their lives, not from each other but from correctional officers,. Sandlin said during a bail hearing conducted by video before U.S. District Court Judge Dabney Friedrich. .I don’t understand how this is remotely acceptable,. he added, saying he was being subjected to “mental torture..

In an unusual direct plea to the judge, Sandlin said another Capitol riot defendant, Ryan Samsel, .was severely beaten by correctional officers, [is now] blind in one eye, has a skull fracture and detached retina..

That’s way more specific than the usual inmate complaints of guard brutality. Samsel has a criminal record dating back to 2006 consisting of witness intimidation, conspiracy, terroristic threats, simple assault, unlawful restraint, reckless endangerment, and harassment. Multiple plea bargains and catch-and-release policies over the years allowed him to attend StopTheSteal while on parole. I don’t have a problem with him being arrested… attending a mass protest would have almost certainly been a parole violation… but that’s no justification for what the D.C. guards did to him.

Sandlin also described racial tension between minority guards and the largely white defendants, some of whom have been publicly accused of membership in or association with white supremacist groups.

Sandlin said guards tackled “to the ground” one high-profile prisoner, Richard Barnett, 60, who was photographed with his boot up on a desk in Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office. Sandlin said one of the guards declared, .I hate all white people and your honky religion..

Do they really hate us that much? They say they do and act like they do but… gosh… we’re so nice that they can’t possibly mean it. /cuck

The three defendants raising alarms are charged with a wide range of crimes related to the Capitol breach. Sandlin, who posted images of himself smoking a joint in the Capitol Rotunda, is accused of tussling with multiple U.S. Capitol Police officers guarding the Senate chamber and trying to rip the helmet off of one of them. Samsel, who is currently on parole in Pennsylvania and is wanted for an unrelated alleged assault in New Jersey, is charged with toppling barricades on top of police officers, telling one, .We don’t have to hurt you, why are you standing in our way?.

Barnett is charged with entering the Capitol armed with a stun gun, entering Pelosi’s office and putting his feet on the furniture, as well as stealing a piece of mail from her office.

Defense attorneys for Samsel and Barnett confirmed the episodes described in court by Sandlin, which they said they learned about from their clients, clients. family members and other attorneys.

.There is a pattern of abuse and of targeting of the defendants who are being held pursuant to what happened on Jan. 6,. said Joseph McBride of New York, a defense lawyer for Barnett. .It is targeted. It is ruthless. It is nonstop..

Nearly all the Jan. 6 defendants who have reached Washington and remain in custody are being held at the Correctional Treatment Facility, a complex in southeast D.C. typically used for prisoners with health needs or who require isolation from the general jail population. About 40 Capitol riot defendants are currently at the CTF, defense lawyers said.

A D.C. jail spokesperson and an attorney who represents the D.C. government on such issues did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the allegations. Jail officials have previously informed the court that the Jan. 6 defendants have all been held in “restrictive housing” in order to protect them from potential altercations with other inmates.

Your run-of-the-mill rioter does not get put in “restrictive housing”.

.For their own safety and security, all of the detainees who are being held at the Jail in connection with the events that occurred on January 6, 2021 at the Capitol Building have been placed in restrictive housing,. Deputy Warden Michelle Jones said in a declaration submitted last month to Judge Royce Lamberth, who is presiding over a separate case related to Jan. 6.

One veteran D.C. defense attorney said many Capitol rioters were new to the District’s jail system and might believe they’re being specifically targeted when they’re simply unfamiliar with being in jail at all . particularly in the harsh conditions of 23-hour-a-day isolation.

That’s a lie. Isolation is considered a punishment in our prison system. There is no reason to believe that the protesters would be a threat or be threatened by being put in general population.

Why are they even incarcerated in the first place? Don’t they just need a pretty young woman to talk to?

During the hearing on Tuesday, Friedrich made no direct response to Sandlin’s complaints about the jail, but she set a further hearing for Thursday on his possible release from custody.

Pasqualini said she recognized that many people might have little sympathy for those accused of storming the Capitol, but that people who haven’t been convicted of any crime shouldn’t face such harsh conditions or abuse.

The reason I covered Sandlin instead of Samsel is because Sandlin was the one able to speak to a judge. I wonder if his Mexican-immigrant background is giving him enough freedom that he’s able to contact the outside world to tell us what’s happening. The judge blowing off verifiable accounts of brutality is a bad sign.

All those Trump Derangement Syndrome people now have total control over a batch of “Trump insurrectionists” and they’re using it. No surprise that they are turning out to be hate-driven, cruel sadists who don’t want to wait for due process before starting the beatings.

False Christian Leader Thomas Schirrmacher

My last post touched on how the globalists try to set up tame leaders to serve as Judas goats, or as I phrased it “Trusted Leaders” to improve communication (read, compliance) between the globalist leadership and local factions. In short order, a case study came along: the new Secretary-General of the World Evangelical Alliance Thomas Schirrmacher.

It goes almost without saying that the WEA is a skinsuit. Christianity does not need a strong centralized government–don’t look at me like that, Catholics, the Orthodox said it first–and globalist priorities of Convergence and Unity mean that if a global Christian organization didn’t exist to be coopted then it would have to be invented, then coopted.

Let’s have a look at how the globalists are propping up Schirrmacher as the global leader of Protestant Christianity.

Nothing sinister in his face.

Someone in the line of the Huguenots.the French Protestants who had to flee from persecution in the 16th and 17th centuries.has shown up to remind us what today’s priorities for Christian witness should be.

Bad start. I’m happy to hear that his g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-great-grandfather served in the trenches for Christ but we aren’t talking about that guy today. We do not have hereditary leadership. Our first guy is still alive, yo.

I refer to Thomas Schirrmacher, who became Secretary General of the World Evangelical Alliance (WEA) on March 1. His family lineage dates back to the Huguenots.

Whatever, dude. Is he a Christian?

Symbolically, Schirrmacher’s inauguration ceremony took place just down the road from Wittenberg, where five centuries ago Martin Luther pried open the controls exerted by the Catholic Church and triggered the Protestant Reformation, from which today’s evangelicals are descendants. Now Schirrmacher, a German like Luther and a theologian, is leading this worldwide community of evangelicals.

Is this Brian Stiller guy for real? “Hello fellow Christians! My ancestor was one of you and I was credentialed where Luther used to preach!” Wittenberg is not our Vatican. This is the first time I’ve ever even had to say that.

Raised in a home of university professors, Thomas grew up meeting Evangelical leaders who visited his home. He went on to study theology and cultural anthropology, accumulating multiple earned Ph.D. degrees and honorary doctorates and publishing prolifically.

I ask again: did Thomas ever actually convert?

Schirrmacher is not just a theologian and author; he is also experienced as a diplomat. He knows politics as well as he knows theology. He has met with many prominent Muslim leaders in the world and has built respectful relationships with the full range of Christian denominations and movements.

Stiller sings Thomas’ praises as a very smart man, with very smart parents and very smart friends in high government, and lots of credentials that say he’s very smart. That would impress a eugenic globalist… but neither God nor us.

I came to appreciate Schirrmacher’s style 16 months ago, when I joined him to spend a day with leaders of Nahdlatul Ulama, an Indonesian-based Islamic movement that seeks to foster respect and understanding between Muslims and non-Muslims.

The… what? Are we still talking about Christianity? Did I miss a paragraph?

As intense and articulate as he is, his framing of our conversation that day was first built around friendship and understanding. His grasp of cultural differences, even slight variations and nuances, started the day’s meetings off in a warm and gracious fashion even as we pressed each other on some difficult issues.

As I covered in my previous post on SPARS, the globalists intend to first divide us into mutually hostile identity groups and then control us with culturally-tailored word spells. Tommy having a good “grasp of cultural differences, even slight variations and nuances” would be exactly why globalists would choose him as their designated leader to the infamously decentralized Protestant Christianity.

But it’s not a reason why any of us should bother to hear a single word from this Muslim-lover’s mouth. More when we discuss his wife!

Stiller forgot who his audience was. He spent two paragraphs blathering about ridiculous claims to Christianity (“I slept in George Washington’s bed on my honeymoon! I had an ancestor on the Mayflower! That makes me the American President!”) then proceeded to discuss how Schirrmacher is a very smart word-twister who is invested in empowering the Islamic world.

Why Global Leadership Matters to Evangelicals

It. Doesn’t. Mouth whatever reasons you want, Stiller, but I’ve got my little black book right here. God bless Gutenberg!

This is the first time in its history that the World Evangelical Alliance has been led by a theologian. Many other esteemed theologians, such as John Stott and J. I. Packer, have made important contributions to the WEA, but none have felt called to devote so much of their lives to the organization as Schirrmacher has.

His expertise in leadership was working up the bureaucracy? If Brian Stiller keeps shooting himself in the foot like this then his new name will be Brian Stumpy.

Schirrmacher has become Secretary General at a strategic time. The WEA.s governing body, the International Council, has adopted a plan called “Roadmap 2030. with four priorities for the coming decade: developing vibrant and effective national evangelical alliances; advocating strongly for those who are suffering; coordinating and affirming the many networks, denominations and missions that make up the global evangelical landscape; and nurturing strong and effective ministries in governance and leadership.

I didn’t know we Christians were into doing five-year plans. The Commies always try them and they never work, so why… oh.

Moving along, his four priorities are Unity, Social Justice, Unity and Unity. With close ties to world government at all times.

A gentle reminder, dear reader, this article ran in a Christian magazine to tell Christians about the new Christian leader of the WEA. Stumpy must have had NOTHING to work with.

Today, the WEA has become a natural center for evangelicals.globally, regionally and nationally. It needs a great Christian mind at this crucial time to lead the largest network of evangelicals worldwide in fostering unity, preserving core Evangelical theology, speaking on behalf of its many communities, and strengthening the evangelical community in discipleship and witnessing for Christ.

I boldfaced the globalism. Stumpy is not challenging my skill at fisking.

He is uniquely qualified to guide the WEA as the evangelical community faces these challenges brought about by a changing religious landscape and an acceleration of this global movement.

Maybe I’ll just keep quoting him.

First, the center of the global church is moving from established Catholic and Protestant structures to a Spirit-led horizon of Bible-centered movements.

Dayumn, Stumpy you inbred hick! How many feet do you have left to shoot off? Five?

*checks* “Brian C. Stiller is Global Ambassador of the World Evangelical Alliance, the global association which represents some 600 million Evangelical Protestants.”

Heh, they wish they represented us. Like they always do, the globalists are appointing a tame mouthpiece who lies in the names of God and men, and they all are too busy sniffing each other’s farts to notice how few of us even notice what they’re doing.

Historically, no religious community has experienced such amazing growth as evangelicals in the past six decades, from 90 million in 1960 to over 600 million today and still growing.

The Church is dead and your statistic is a lie calculated to generate respect for you, Stumpy.

In many places, including the global south, evangelical movements are experiencing growth that is not happening in the West. But they are also young and lacking guidance from a long theological or organizational tradition. The WEA has years of experience to assist church leaders in their ministry.

“Hello fellow Christians! I see that you are not organized well! Let me lead you into social justice and unification with Islam! We are the best because we are the biggest! Nothing happens without power and money and we got lots!”

Second, this growth has opened up enormous opportunities for evangelicals to influence the world. But because of our decentralized nature, evangelicals have no center like the Vatican.

THAT’S INTENTIONAL YOU MOTHERHUMPING IGNORANT PHILISTINE! Ask us how we put the “Protest” in Protestant, I dare you! You toadys for the world government aren’t going to square that circle anytime soon!

We need a Spirit-guided way to come together in unity, communicate our identity, encourage fellowship, champion biblical theology, and catalyze effective, collaborative action. The WEA is the organization best positioned to help us find common ground.

Unity… Trusted Leaders communicating to us… Unity… theology unmoored from both Scripture and Tradition… Unity.

I wanna buy another gun. But I shouldn’t. The squirrels keep digging them up as quick as I can stash ’em.

Third, this past year was one of the bloodiest yet for Christian believers. On an average day, 8 Christians are killed, 23 are raped or sexually harassed, and 10 are unjustly arrested or imprisoned because of their faith. During 2020, there were more than 9,000 attacks on Christian churches in 51 countries, according to Open Doors. And Christians are not the only victims of persecution. In western China, hundreds of thousands of Muslims are held in gulag camps, and we have no idea how many have died. The WEA has built a strong presence at the United Nations in Geneva, the primary place in the world where human rights issues are addressed head-on.

We don’t really care if we suffer for God, Stumpy. It hurts but the price is right. We also don’t care if atheists and Muslims persecute each other instead of us. We do care that there were probably over 9,000 attacks on believers in France alone, by your friends the Muslims. If you’re going to lie about the hardships we face then at least don’t mix in sympathy for the devil at the same time.

Where countries are violating religious liberties, the WEA team carefully builds credibility by getting their facts straight and constructing persuasive arguments.

That means word spells, per my SPARS post. Globalists intend to cultivate credibility like currency, banking it and spending it to raise and control tame leaders. Christians do not care about credibility. We care about honesty. We will be very harshly discredited in the coming years but the Living God Of Truth will confirm us… sooner or later, as He wills… as correct.

You are an intruder into reality, Brian Stiller. Your master is a usurper and a rebel with no legitimate claim to authority. That’s why you’re desperate to be PERCEIVED as a legitimate authority… because you can’t argue that you are, except by threats of murder. Yes, that means your master is also a murderer. You might check if I’m correct before retiring on that fat pension he offered.

This world belongs to Christ Jesus. He will be cruel towards you CREDIBLE globalists when He returns. You give yourself airs of authenticity but the True And Living will expose your lies just by saying hello.

It’s not even that great of a trick, Stumpy. I expose your lies just by quoting you. That’s how credible you are.

Although COVID-19 has seized much of our attention in the past year, other pressing issues also defy our ability to manage them alone: religious nationalism rearing its head in parts of the Western world…

“We love you Christians! but you can’t have your own society or your own faction or your own leaders or any kind of a safe haven. We will hunt down every last one of you and… educate you….”

…and in Asia, religious persecution that violates our accepted norms of human rights…

“Our” meaning the United Nations that appointed the WEA, or the Muslims that you champion in the name of Christ?

Screw the Uighurs. Nobody is coming to rescue me so why should I give one single care about foreigners who hate Christ living in Western Mongolia or wherever? Bon appetit, slant-eyes, and thanks for the Chinky Pox.

…horrible instances of racial exclusion, and much more.

“White men must be exterminated because the Bible bans racist attitudes and hurting people!”

Jesus. call for unity wasn’t just a biblical idea about being nice to each other; it didn’t exist at all.

Oops.

…nice to each other; it also called for practical outworkings that transform our ways of thinking and living. The WEA is doing many of these things in ways that no other entity can do.

Thomas Schirrmacher in becoming the WEA Secretary General is not only strategic in his planning and enthusiastic in executing those plans, but he has surrounded himself with able and experienced people who believe deeply in fostering unity and working towards spiritual well-being in the church globally.

Hey, that’s right! This was supposed to be about Tommie not “Global Ambassador” Stumpy who by now has surely shot his evangelism efforts in the foot all the up to Ambassador Sackless.

I better pad this out with some highlights from Wikipedia.

Thomas Schirrmacher is a Christian moral philosopher and a specialist in the Sociology of Religion and Religious freedom. He is known as a global human rights activist and holds a chair in Theology (Ethics, Missiology, World Religions).

“I am a Christian who worships the devil because all faith traditions of the world are legitimate!”

Since 2014 he is president of the International Council of the International Society for Human Rights and director of the International Institute for Religious Freedom.

Linking him to the world government.

In October 2015 he was the only evangelical member of the catholic synod on family lead by Pope Francis.

Linking him to the Jesuits.

Has the True Gospel of Jesus Been Found?

h ttps://www.islaminstitut.de/en/2004/has-the-true-gospel-of-jesus-been-found/

By Prof. Dr. Christine Schirrmacher

Going for the double honorific! In fairness, I hear that’s a legit German cultural thing.

The time has finally come: the so-called .Gospel of Barnabas. is now available in German….

The German publication of this text was undertaken by a German married couple which has converted to Islam. Both are members of the mystic Dervish order of the Naqshbandiyya, whose roots extend back into the fourteenth century. The Turban-Verlag, the publishing company founded by them several years ago and in which the Gospel of Barnabas has appeared, offers titles by Muslim authors, for the most part. The translation of the Gospel of Barnabas into German has turned out from the linguistic point of view just as successfully as the sound external design of the book.

Christine used her position to offer a heretical text provided by Muslims for incorporation into Scripture? Say it ain’t so.

What is the significance of this Gospel of Barnabas? The reader who studies the short foreword and the cover text could gain the impression that an original source for early Christianity finally has re-emerged after many centuries.

Does Professor-Doctor not understand the definition of “original source”?

For a long time, the only known copy of this gospel was one in Italian, which today can be viewed in the Austrian National Library in Vienna by any interested person. When one is in Vienna and holds this slim volume in his hands, one can hardly believe that this book has caused so much commotion between Christians and Muslims in the last one hundred years.

Apart from the Italian manuscript, two Spanish manuscripts from the eighteenth century are known, one of which must be considered as completely missing, while the other is an incomplete manuscript rediscovered only in 1976 in Sydney, where it is still to be found today. Apart from the Italian and the two Spanish manuscripts, a Greek, Latin, or Hebrew manuscript has never been found and genuine historical proof that the Gospel of Barnabas existed before the sixteenth century has never been provided.

Why are we even talking about it then?

Why do Muslims support this gospel so vehemently? Because it claims to be the only gospel written by a witness of the life of Jesus, and to contain the truth about Christianity.

Matthew, Mark and John were also witnesses of Christ’s life. Peter was a relative of Christ. I recall some debate about whether Luke was an eyewitness or scholar… certainly the latter for the Book of Acts.

At the same time, it rejects those fundamental articles of Christian faith which Islam also dismisses. The Gospel of Barnabas denies the divine sonship of Jesus, his redemptive death on the Cross, and his resurrection. As a “Christian” gospel, it thereby becomes the chief witness against.so the Muslim opinion.degenerate and distorted Pauline Christianity while, at the same time, it confirms the statements of the Koran. The idea that true Christian revelation thus is not inconsistent with Islam, but rather is in harmony with it, is a Muslim dogma which is repeatedly put forward and which.in the Muslim view.is confirmed by the Gospel of Barnabas.

There’s not much to debate. Muslims discovered a “gospel” that denies Christ’s divinity and confirms Islam as correct? Was that what China was looking at when it decided upon a giant red flag for its national identity?

Jesus does not die on the Cross, but rather Judas. This “substitution theory., which says that Judas was mistaken for Jesus and died in his place on the Cross, is certainly the most common opinion about the Crucifixion to be found among Muslim theologians today. The only statement in the Koran about the Crucifixion, in Sura 4, 157-158, gives only vague hints about the event and could be so interpreted that not Jesus, but rather another, was crucified. With its declaration that this other person was Judas, the Gospel of Barnabas, in a certain sense, interprets the Koran.

Is this the Schirrmachers’ opinion or just wifey’s reporting?

One last article.

Global Evangelical and Muslim organizations launch major joint religious freedom project

h ttps://www.thomasschirrmacher.net/blog/global-evangelical-and-muslim-organizations-launch-major-joint-religious-freedom-project/

21 April 2020

Leading figures in the world’s largest independent Muslim organization and the world’s largest Evangelical Christian organization announced today that they are undertaking an ambitious joint effort to reshape how the world thinks about religion and to counter two threats to religious freedom and to society more broadly: religious extremism and secular extremism.

The Muslim participants represent Humanitarian Islam, which is rooted in the Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), with an estimated membership of more than 90 million, primarily in its home country of Indonesia. Since its founding almost a century ago, NU has gained wide recognition for its promotion of a version of Islamic orthodoxy characterized by respect for religious pluralism and tolerance. Its members are now found in most major cities around the globe.

I heard “we Christians aren’t the only ones having our religion gutted into a skin suit by Social Justice Warriors”.

The Christian partner in this project is the World Evangelical Alliance (WEA), which.thanks to the global growth of evangelical Christianity in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.has become one of the most prominent world-wide Christian bodies, representing over 600 million Christians with national evangelical alliances in 130 countries.

Their only claim to “credibility” is representing every Protestant on the planet, which they don’t.

[Kyai Haji Yahya Cholil Staquf, General Secretary of Indonesia’s Nahdlatul Ulama Supreme Council says:] “Certain obsolete and problematic tenets do indeed existwithin Islamic orthodoxy and continue to shape the mindset of many Muslims. These problematic elements are the legacy of a past civilizational reality, which was characterized by persistent religious conflict. They are no longer relevant nor compatible with the geopolitical and demographic realities of the 21st century. Hence, we need to develop a new normative platform of religious orthodoxy, which does not legitimize hatred, supremacy and violence..

In response Thomas Schirrmacher, WEA Associate Secretary General for Theological Concerns and Religious Freedom, commented, .Even though the WEA has a large dialogue program with top Muslim leaders worldwide, we especially seek a close cooperation with those Muslim leaders and theologians who join us in fighting for human rights and against racism, religious extremism outside Islam, and religious extremism inside Islam, and any way to subordinate the State under any religious group. We have studied in depth the reasons why Indonesia takes a different and positive road in its relation to religious minorities and are convinced that it would be helpful if Indonesia could present its experience to as many other states as possible..

“We fight against ANY WAY TO SUBORDINATE THE STATE UNDER ANY RELIGIOUS GROUP.” This, in contrast to Christ appointing specific powers and duties… and limits… to the State.

Good enough for me. Thomas Schirrmacher is a false Christian leader and a true atheist-globalist appointed to gut Protestant Christianity of its history, beliefs, organizations and assets. I presume Frankie Boy is managing the Catholic side of that.

SPARS: the Plague Of Dissent

Today is a deep dive into the Deep State’s plan for the Plandemic and specifically, its use of magic spells. Magic as in, choosing one’s words in order to force one’s will upon reality. Johns Hopkins University wrote a paper discussing a theoretical “SPARS plague” set in 2025. While the conspiracy-theory site that I got this from believes SPARS is going to be the next plague, methinks that’s crediting the authors with too much wisdom. I think it’s better considered as a reflection on lessons (not) learned from Chinaballs.

Only one of seven is likely to be white male. I see that the demand for tenure still dramatically outstrips the supply.

This is a hypothetical scenario designed to illustrate the public health risk communication challenges that could potentially emerge during a naturally occurring infectious disease outbreak requiring development and distribution of novel and/or investigational drugs, vaccines, therapeutics, or other medical countermeasures.

Given the gender makeup of the authors, let’s see how long it takes for the scenario to begin talking about its feelings.

The timeframe for the scenario (the years 2025-2028) was selected first, and then major socioeconomic, demographic, technological, and environmental trends likely to have emerged by that period were identified. Specifically, two dominant trends likely to influence regulatory and public responses to future public health emergencies were selected: one, varying degrees of access to information technology; and two, varying levels of fragmentation among populations along social, political, religious, ideological, and cultural lines.

Cultural balkanization remains a top priority of our rulers. Provided that none of those fragments is Christian, of course.

In the year 2025, the world has become simultaneously more connected, yet more divided. Nearly universal access to wireless internet and new technology.including internet accessing technology (IAT): thin, flexible screens that can be temporarily attached to briefcases, backpacks, or clothing and used to stream content from the internet.has provided the means for readily sharing news and information. However, many have chosen to self-restrict the sources they turn to for information, often electing to interact only with those with whom they agree. This trend has increasingly isolated cliques from one another, making communication across and between these groups more and more difficult.

This emphasis upon universal connectivity is in line with the Elites’ push for Internet Of Things as a surveillance tool. They make a fatal mistake here, however, in assuming that everybody is still a participant in social media despite the Elites’ banning of dissidents.

Putting aside the impossible possibility of people simply unplugging from the New World Order,

From a government standpoint, the current administration is led by President Randall Archer, who took office in January 2025. Archer served as Vice President under President Jaclyn Bennett (2020-2024), who did not seek a second term due to health concerns. The two remain close and Bennett acts as a close confidante and unofficial advisor to President Archer.

It was four paragraphs until the scenario began discussing its feelings.

The majority of President Archer’s senior staff, including Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Cindra Nagel, are carryovers from Bennett’s administration. At the time of the initial SPARS outbreak Nagel has served in this position for just over three years.

In mid-October 2025, three deaths were reported among members of the First Baptist Church of St. Paul, Minnesota. Two of the church members had recently returned from a missionary trip to the Philippines, where they provided relief to victims of regional floods. The third was the mother of a church member who had also traveled to the Philippines with the church group but who had been only mildly sick himself.

The Narrative of Christianity spreading disease. While this specific case is easily possible, short-term missionary trips are not the work of God. They’re Stella getting her groove. SPARS should be an STD!

Based on the patients. reported symptoms, healthcare providers initially guessed that they had died from seasonal influenza, which health officials predicted would be particularly virulent and widespread that fall. However, laboratory tests were negative for influenza. Unable to identify the causative agent, officials at the Minnesota Department of Health’s Public Health Laboratory sent the patients. clinical specimens to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), where scientists confirmed that the patients did not have influenza. One CDC scientist recalled reading a recent ProMed dispatch describing the emergence of a novel coronavirus in Southeast Asia, and ran a pancoronavirus RT-PCR test.

The PCR was never meant to be a diagnostic test. If we’re going to pretend that the 2025 US pResident isn’t Camel-Toe Harris then maybe we could pretend that an accurate test will exist by then? One capable of discriminating between the annual flu and China Pox, like the real-life one didn’t this past winter?

A week later, the CDC team confirmed that the three patients were, in fact, infected with a novel coronavirus, which was dubbed the St. Paul Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SPARS-CoV, or SPARS), after the city where the first cluster of cases had been identified.

Standard naming procedure. Remember why the medical community didn’t name Wuhan the WURS or whatever? Because Daddy China said no.

I also notice that in their scenario, SPARS is something that just happens. In real life, the Wuhan biolab origin of Coof is already being scrubbed out of existence. First it was a known fact, now it’s “however the disease happened….”

Concern among many Americans about the severity of SPARS at this point in the outbreak was moderately high. The public’s concern was compounded by the apparent virulence of the pathogen. At the outset of the SPARS outbreak, physicians. understanding of the disease stemmed primarily from extremely severe cases resulting in pneumonia or hypoxia that required hospitalization and extensive medical treatment.

Yep, that’s COVID.

Mild cases of the disease, which produced symptoms including cough, fever, headaches, and malaise, were often perceived as the flu by the people who had them and consequently often went untreated and undiagnosed by medical personnel.

Yep, that’s COVID.

As a result, early case fatality estimates were inflated.

Early statistics were wildly inaccurate because most people got better without expert help while those who did die were about to die of something else soon anyway?

That. Is. COVID.

Two additional features of the SPARS virus that were not appreciated at the beginning of the pandemic, but that impacted how the outbreak played out, are also important to consider in a review of this event. First, the virus had an extended incubation period (seven to ten days) compared to its latent period (four to five days). Thus, infected persons could spread the virus for up to nearly a week before showing symptoms of the disease themselves. As a result, isolating sick SPARS patients proved to be less effective than isolating patients infected by other, better-characterized respiratory diseases.

In that scenario, you’re screwed. An airborne disease that makes people undetectably highly contagious for a full week? No containment is possible. Grin and bear it.

One notices that such a disease would be the only possible justification for the civilization-ending lockdowns we actually had. Also, such a disease would be 100% certain to have come from a “gain of function” bioweapon research program. Tip: Check for HIV spliced into it.

Second, morbidity and mortality from SPARS were both significantly higher in children than adults. Pregnant women and those with chronic respiratory conditions like asthma and emphysema were also at a higher risk for both disease complications and death.

SPARS ends civilization, women most affected! The pdf has ‘food for thought’ questions scattered throughout:

1) How can health authorities best meet public demands for critical information, such as, .What is the health threat?. and “What do I know about it?. when the crisis is still unfolding and not all the facts are known?

Use the phrase “I don’t know”. Also, do not permanently end all human civilization as a precautionary tactic.

2) What benefits does monitoring trends in social media postings confer on efforts to meet people’s information needs during an evolving health crisis?

Now we’re getting into the meat of this scenario’s accidental purpose,. It’s not actually a discussion of the next Coof-Coof, which if we were serious about, could be prevented by banning high-speed air travel and securing the national border. This is a discussion of how to control society via social media during the continuation of the current Plandemic.

To answer the question, Barbie, if you don’t have anything to say then don’t say anything. I know you females need to express emotion for the sake of it but please, recognize that it’s the verbal version of breathing into a paper bag.

[Early-mid pandemic], no treatment or vaccine for SPARS was approved for use in humans. The antiviral Kalocivir, [an obvious standing for HCQ,] was already a part of the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) in anticipation of FDA approval, despite some concerns about potential adverse side effects. The lack of concrete information regarding potential treatments in the face of the increasingly rapid spread of SPARS prompted demands from the media, the public, and political leaders for the FDA to be more forthcoming with information on potential treatment options.

An excellent case study in totalitarian government. Having eliminated all the independent-minded dissidents, the government now finds itself in a situation in which it needs to pacify the screaming mobs. The correct answer of “we don’t know, we’re working on it, it’ll be ready when it’s ready” is not going to work because it encourages people to work out the problem for themselves. That’s how dissent happens.

When the truth doesn’t work, you tell the lies that will keep the situation under control. Not the disease situation: your centralized dominion over society. Hence these questions:

1) What risks do public health agencies face if the public, media, and/or political leaders feel that information about potential treatment options is being withheld?

You risk losing your grip on power. You must be perceived as taking action! Operation Warp Speed!

2) What kinds of outreach could public health agencies perform in advance of a crisis to mitigate any perceived lack of transparency? If such a perception emerges in the crisis, then how might it be defused?

“What lies can be prepared in advance?” That’s the one single question that “Doctor Fauci” DID answer. You prop up a grandfatherly-looking puppet who mutters vague platitudes that help the hysterical population believe whatever comforts them.

Shortly after authorizing expanded access to Kalocivir for select patients…

Why select patients? It’s a treatment not a vaccine. If it’s needed then you use it.

…the FDA received reports of an animal vaccine developed by GMI, a multinational livestock conglomerate operating cattle and pig farms in, among other places, Southeast Asia. Since 2021, ranchers had been using the vaccine to prevent a SPARS-like respiratory coronavirus disease in cows and pigs in the Philippines and other Southeast Asian countries. Data provided by GMI suggested that the vaccine was effective at preventing SPARS-like illnesses in cows, pigs, and other hooved mammals, but internal trials revealed several worrisome side effects, including swollen legs, severe joint pain, and encephalitis leading to seizures or death. Because any animals experiencing these side effects were immediately killed, and because animals were typically slaughtered within a year of vaccination, further information regarding the short- and long-term effects of the GMI vaccine was unavailable.

Man, that’s way more optimistic than reality’s “the government offered $500b to the first biotech company that could plausibly claim to have something that worked, and the first company to do so had mutual financial interests with senior government health officials.”

Lacking a viable alternative.and considering the potentially high morbidity and mortality associated with SPARS (at the time the case fatality rate was still considered to be 4.7%).the United States government contacted GMI in regards to the vaccine.

Injecting livestock medicine that’s known for neurological side effects into humans is also more optimistic than reality’s aborted-baby tissue. “Don’t worry, it’s been cloned and washed and we never gave it a name anyway.”

…HHS Secretary Nagel agreed in principle to invoke the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP Act), thereby providing liability protection for CynBio and future vaccine providers in the event that vaccine recipients experienced any adverse effects.

2) How might federal health authorities respond to critics who propose that liability protection for SPARS vaccine manufacturers jeopardizes individual freedom and wellbeing?

If the vaccine is optional then the critics shouldn’t have a problem. If the vaccine is mandatory on threat of house imprisonment without due process, with government raising the possibility of forever revoking basic freedoms for those who refuse, then the critics need to be silenced. Fortunately, we’re Progressive enough now that that means losing social media privileges rather than the traditional bullet to the back of the skull.

3) Once the vaccine becomes broadly available (see the chapter, .Head of the Line Privileges.), how might public health communicators implement the “best practices” principle of enabling people to make their own informed decisions about whether to accept the novel SPARS vaccine?

4) What are the potential consequences of health officials overreassuring the public about the potential risks of a novel SPARS vaccine when long-term effects are not yet known?

Notice they’re talking about using words as spells, invocations to achieve desired results. “What should sorcerers er, communicators say to calm the public about the unknown? What are likely side effects of reassurance versus noncommittal statements?”

Small groups of individuals spread throughout the country for example, who felt that natural cures such as garlic and vitamins would be more effective at treating SPARS than an .untested. drug, were much less likely to accept Kalocivir as a treatment option or even seek medical attention for SPARS-like symptoms.

Why should they be forced to get a treatment that wasn’t intended for human use in the first place? Because the alternative, the unthinkable, for a government that lusts for total control, is to be seen as not in control.

One of the best examples of this occurred among the Navajo tribe in the southwestern United States. In early February 2026, the newly instated director of the Navajo Area Indian Health Service (NAIHS) took messaging provided by the CDC and modified this so it was more fear-based. His methods included taking the tagline from a CDC message . .See your health care provider if you experience SPARS-like symptoms..and adding the phrase .SPARS can kill you. at the end.

While the intent of the director was to increase the number of Navajo seeking treatment for SPARS, the modified message, which was widely distributed throughout tribal areas, backfired. Fewer Navajo came forward in the following weeks for treatment from the NAIHS for SPARS-like symptoms. Sensing a mistake had been made, the director reached out to tribal leadership. After intensive dialog the messaging of the NAIHS was changed to reflect Navajo beliefs in sustaining life and eschewing a focus on death. Specifically, the fear-based messaging was replaced with positive messages including “Seeing health care providers for SPARS-like symptoms can help you and your family members live long and happy lives..

There it is. This hypothetical director tried one set of words after another in order to get the effect he wanted, which was to control the behavior of the Navajo against their better judgment.

Due to the variation in local responses to Kalocivir and persisting anxiety around the outbreak itself, local public health agencies actively tried to address controversies and coordinate public health outreach with local populations. While many of these local public health outreach efforts successfully increased compliance with recommended health actions…

…they were not effective at reaching some special interest groups, including the growing national anti-Kalocivir/natural medicine movement…

Let’s call them Christians because I can’t tolerate the fig leaf that they aren’t discussing right-now WuFlu.

Reports of negative side effects associated with Kalocivir began gaining traction in February 2026. Despite the negative response, public health agencies continued to make progress until February, when a video of a three-year-old boy in North Carolina . who was hospitalized with SPARS and began projectile vomiting immediately after taking a dose of Kalocivir . went viral. In the video clip, the boy’s physician administers a pediatric dose of liquid Kalocivir; a few moments later, the boy begins vomiting profusely, chokes, and then faints while his mother shrieks in the background.

Oh no! A counter-spell!

The social media groundswell quickly overwhelmed the capacity of local, state, and federal agencies to respond, and compliance with public health and medical recommendations dropped considerably.

Red alert! Red alert! Narrative failure in progress! The other kind of progress!

FDA and other government agencies quickly attempted to remind the public that correlation does not equate to causation, and that vomiting was not a known side effect of Kalocivir. This message, while scientifically accurate, lacked appropriate empathy and failed to assuage the public’s mounting fears. As a result, it was largely ignored, and public concern continued to grow.

The truth didn’t work! What can they try next, other than truth?

In the following weeks, officials from the FDA, CDC, and other government organizations attempted to promote positive, accurate information about Kalocivir on several traditional and social media platforms in order to quell public fear.

Lying, of course. But for a good cause!

This messaging, however, was less than optimal both in terms of timing and dissemination. While the government took several days to provide an emotionally appropriate message, the spread of the viral video on social media was exponentially faster.

Yay 4chan!

By the time the government responded, most people across the country had already seen the vomiting video and formed their own conclusions.

Additionally, in their responses, governmental organizations were not able to effectively access all social media platforms. ZapQ groups, for example, had closed memberships and typically could only be accessed via invitations
from group members.

Yay 4chan! Oops, yay ZapQ! And I’m totally, totally certain that they didn’t intend a Q reference.

I am suddenly very interested in how “medical experts” might react to people forming their own opinions in unsupervised corners of the Internet.

Both of these issues prompted government organizations to improve the timing and impact of their social media responses. While most government agencies including the CDC and HHS had long established offices that were directed to coordinate social media and other communication efforts… Compounding this situation was the social media outreach conducted by individual members of the government. Several members of Congress were very active on sites like Twitter where they could leverage their office to spread their own personal beliefs under the guise of public positions.

When you don’t know what to do… find somebody to blame! Witch hunt, ho!

In late May, one of these individuals, a former doctor and current Senator from Iowa, responded to a second vomiting video by tweeting, .Don’t be buffoons! Kalocivir is 100% safe and 100% effective. Correlation does NOT equal Causation!. After being shared tens of thousands of times, the tweet waspicked up by traditional media outlets. This led to multiple awkward news interviews with FDA and CDC officials who had to clarify… the sentiment of the message was correct, Kalocivir did have potential side effects and was not completely effective at treating SPARS.

OUCH! Even in their dreams, the Socialists’ greatest enemy is the truth!

By May 2026, public interest in SPARS had begun to wane. In late April the CDC had publicized an updated case fatality rate estimate, suggesting the SPARS was only fatal in 0.6% of cases in the United States (where access to medical treatment was available). This figure matched public sentiment, widely expressed on social media, that SPARS was not as dangerous as initially thought. Combined with persisting doubts about Kalocivir and the lack of a commercially available SPARS vaccine, the new, lower case fatality rate estimate led the public to grow increasingly hostile toward continued SPARS messaging.

That’s about where we are right now. Great job guys, now make like Iraq: declare victory and GTFO.

No?

In order to overcome the public’s disinterest, the CDC and FDA, in concert with other government agencies and their social media experts, began developing a new public health messaging campaign about SPARS, Kalocivir, and the forthcoming vaccine, Corovax.

I would trust Judas with my money before trusting a bureaucrat with my government.

The purpose of this campaign was to create a core set of messages that could be shared by all public health and government agencies over the next several months during which time the SPARS vaccine would be introduced. Even though the disease was less fatal than initially thought, it remained expensive to treat in its severe form and even mild cases had substantial impacts on economic productivity across the country.

In late May, three messages were approved by the cross-agency committee established to produce the messaging campaign: one addressing the nature and risks of SPARS, one regarding the effectiveness of Kalocivir, and one about the anticipated release of Corovax. These messages were broadly shared via all relevant government agencies. internet and social media accounts. In an effort to further reach certain population subgroups, agency officials enlisted the help of well-known scientists, celebrities, and government officials to make short videos and Zap clips and, in a few cases, give interviews to major media outlets. Among those chosen were former President Jaclyn Bennett; BZee, a popular hiphop star; and Paul Farmer, co-founder of Partners in Health and a renowned global health expert.

“Spells work better when they’re spoken by trusted people!”

This is 1985:

This is 2021:

BZee.s original Zap clip was widely shared, particularly among African American and urban populations; however, in an interview aired on Access Hollywood during which he was asked about the accelerated clinical trials for Corovax, BZee noted his admiration for those who volunteered to participate in the trials, and then compared these recent volunteers to volunteers in previous healthrelated studies “including the men who volunteered at Tuskegee.. The resulting backlash, particularly from African Americans, undermined the effectiveness of BZee’s efforts.

*GunnerQ literally rolls on floor laughing* But… but… noggers wuz kangs an sheet! Wakanda!

I must admit, they’re keeping this much more real than I’d expected at the start.

Not long after, 60 Minutes aired a live, nationally broadcast interview with former President Bennett. When asked if she would want her new grandson to receive Kalocivir, Bennett, caught off-guard, paused and eventually gave a hesitant, somewhat contradictory response: .Well, I . experts say the drug is safe. And it’s not easy, but I think.Everyone should make the decision that’s best for their family.” Video clips from this interview were shared widely on social media and by traditional media outlets, leading many healthcare professionals and members of the public to criticize Bennett for not taking a strong stance in support of Kalocivir.

Speaking of kangs an sheet, do we have a black knight ally in Johns Hopkins? I can write off the first derp-story as humor… no… no, these days in a major institution, it’s a risk to tell ANY kind of a nogger joke.

But yeah, this is exactly what happens when one relies on spells woven of words to control the behaviors of others. Jesus the White eventually shows up to evict Saruman’s bony ass from his Tower of Power. Using hip-hop artists only speeds up the process.

The aftermath of the interview, however, did galvanize many House and Senate Republicans to support Kalocivir use in earnest in an effort to demonstrate their opposition to from the former Democratic President.

Exposed to the light of truth, cockroaches run and hide behind their loyal-opposition Republicans. We always knew there was a reason they kept the Federalist solvent.

Given the ability of powerful, popular figures to reinforce or to undermine public health messages, what steps might health authorities.at either national or local levels.take to reverse the negative effects of BZee’s unintended linkage of Tuskegee and Corovax, or Bennett’s tepid, uncertain support for Kalocivir?

“As a thought experiment, how would you have handled Bzee’s miscast spell? Put your hand down, Weird Al Yankovic.”

While government agencies were spreading the newly tooled public health messages about SPARS, Kalocivir, and Corovax through a variety of traditional and social media outlets, several popular platforms were overlooked. A notable example was UNEQL, a social media interface used at the time almost exclusively by college students. UNEQL was designed and first used at the University of California Berkeley in 2023.

They really are taking this scenario into spellcasting and Narrative control seriously. I had expected only to hit the highlights but they keep coming, and we’re only a third of the way through the PDF!

The initial purpose of the interface was to provide undergraduate college students with a common forum to collectively critique local, national, and international social and economic policies such as anti-immigration laws and drug policies.

Good citizens have goodthinks!

By 2026, the interface still maintained a critical focus but had expanded to include an underground news reporting system, led by seven primary “reporters” across the country; a satirical news feed that could be streamed as a caption on any program running on IAT; and special interest message boards accessible to anyone. While UNEQL was the primary news source of many college students on the east and west coasts, its existence and particularly its prominence was largely unknown outside of college communities and completely ignored by most public health agencies.

1) [Why] are the roles of a media-literate staff and organizational capacity to communicate via both social and traditional media platforms critical to understanding and influencing public debates about an MCM like Kalocivir?

This is how the Left sees education. They educate you again and again until you agree with them.

CHANGING HORSES MIDSTREAM: Chapter 9

I haven’t given chapter headers before but now we’re heading into what’s about to happen rather than recapping the past.

In mid-June 2026, Laso Therapeutics, the sponsor for Kalocivir’s clinical trials, released data from a large randomized controlled trial (RCT). The new data suggested that Kalocivir was less effective at treating SPARS than initially thought and was, in fact, on par with [european rivals] Ribavirin and VMax, both of which showed low efficacy as SPARS treatments.

There it is. A smoking gun that this entirely, entirely fictitious medical community might have been so eager to be seen in control of the situation, that they didn’t actually do their jobs.

Sic semper bureaucrat.

These results led the FDA to conclude that all currently available drugs were only minimally effective at treating SPARS. In response, the CDC suggested that healthcare providers continue to provide palliative care to SPARS patients and that, if necessary, patients with more mild cases could use over-the-counter medications to alleviate symptoms. Ultimately, this left providers to address patient concerns and demands on their own, which proved frustrating for them and many of their patients.

That describes sooo many of modern society’s mask zombies. Everybody wants the respect of being a super-surgeon-scientist and they don’t really care if they have the skill to justify that respect. It’s Eve envying Adam his male privilege all over again. What solution will be attempted for when the vaccines inexplicably turn out to not be vaccines?

Immediately following the release of the RCT data, current US President Archer, HHS Secretary Nagel, officials from other government organizations, and scientists across the country publicly praised the FDA and CDC for their responses and updated guidelines.

I said it first! Make like Iraq: declare victory and GTFO.

The response on social media, however, was largely negative.

At about this point, you would not have negative social media. You would have open revolt. Everything about the plandemic thus far has carefully avoided those troublesome dissidents and assumed that the jabs will have no future consequences beyond a quick buck for Big Pharma.

Citing the vomiting video, reports about VMax from Europe, and the communication blunders made by President Bennett and BZee, citizens across the country took to Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Vine, and ZapQ to assert that the changing messages merely proved that scientists knew very little about how to deal with SPARS. Common social media messages shared during this time included #FakeScience and #GoNatural. The response was particularly vitriolic from the burgeoning natural medicine movement.

Those damn Christians! What can we do about them?

Step one: target and track.

To determine how to best distribute limited doses of Corovax to members of priority groups across the country, the US government resorted to new, controversial tactics; notably, having healthcare providers access patients. electronic health records (EHRs) to determine the number of individuals in high-risk populations receiving care in particular areas. Due to widespread increases in EHR use since 2020, this method proved to be highly effective, enabling providers to quickly tabulate the number of pregnant women and young adults 19-22 with chronic respiratory conditions.

And immediately place them in lockdown quarantine until they can be forcibly vaccinated for the new bug-of-the-month. With the push of a button and not their consent.

In some communities, like Los Angeles County, California, this method also identified neighborhoods with limited access to primary care.

COVID passports were never just about COVID. They’re here to stay.

Based on this data, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health began intensive public vaccination campaigns in those areas. The use of EHRs was not without controversy, however. Some US citizens were upset because they believed the federal government was accessing private patient data. This stemmed from a misunderstanding on the citizens. part: the federal government was not accessing patients. EHRs directly, but rather was relying on healthcare organizations and providers to access patients. EHR and then report summary information (specifically, the number of people in the targeted groups) to the CDC, FDA, and other government agencies.

Why Google Health failed: Too little, too soon

h ttps://www.computerworld.com/article/2509515/why-google-health-failed–too-little–too-soon.html

28 June 2011

Google’s online personal health record (PHR) service failed because of its relative obscurity and lack of capabilities, according to health care industry experts. Google said late last week it would shutter Google Health on Jan. 1, 2012, since the PHR service has failed to gain widespread adoption.

While it offered people a way to store health information in a centralized online location, Google Health was mainly an aggregation service with little to offer mainstream consumers other than an online scrapbook of medical information. Google itself admitted that adoption was mainly among tech-savvy patients and fitness enthusiasts.

“We haven’t found a way to translate that limited usage into widespread adoption in the daily health routines of millions of people,” Google said in its blog post about the service.

Google launched a beta of Google Health in mid-2008 as a rival to Microsoft’s HealthVault personal health record service.

IDC Health Insights analyst Lynne Dunbrack said Google Health failed for a number of reasons, though the biggest was that people were unaware that it even existed because of ineffective marketing.

No, it failed because it was an opt-in system. Google Health only had the data that users wanted it to have: not much.

“Many PHRs have been nothing more than medical scrapbooks, and the biggest challenge for Google Health is they had a fairly limited number of data sources,” she said.

Government gave you your privacy rights so Government can take them away, too!

Existing law, the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act, prohibits providers of health care, health care service plans, contractors, employers, and third party administrators, among others, from disclosing medical information, as defined, without the patient’s written authorization, subject to certain exceptions, as specified.

This bill would require the Government Operations Agency, on or before July 1, 2021, to appoint a working group, consisting of representatives from the public and private sectors, as specified, to explore the use of verifiable health credentials for communication of COVID-19 test results or other medical test results in this state. The bill would require the working group to report its recommendations to the Legislature on or before July 1, 2022. The bill would require the Department of Consumer Affairs to, among other things, in consultation with the working group, develop and maintain a verifiable issuer registry, as defined.

…The working group shall consist of representatives from the public and private sectors, including state health-related agencies, health care providers, privacy and civil liberties groups, independent nonprofit or not-for-profit information technology groups with specific expertise in the development and use of verifiable credentials, and a business based in California that offers services centered on the provision and authentication of verifiable credentials.

End segues

Step 2 for handling “those damn Christians”: Converge the leadership.

LOVERS AND HATERS: CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Early on in the Corovax vaccination campaign, anti-vaccination groups began emerging on social media platforms. These groups initially came from four primary sources: Muslim groups across the country, who opposed the vaccine on the basis that the original formulation was used to treat pigs; African Americans, who refused vaccination based on continued fear of governmental experimentation on African American populations; alternative medicine proponents, who had also been active in campaigning against Kalocivir; and anti-vaccination activists, who were galvanized by the anti-antivaccination sentiment associated with the nationwide measles outbreak in 2015.

With the exception of this last group, none of the anti-vaccination movements were cohesively organized initially, existing primarily in small, isolated pockets across the country. The general antivaccination proponents, however, existed as a core, national group long before the SPARS pandemic.

It’s not just anti-vaxxers this time. Just sayin’, when the government puts a gun to my head and tell me Jesus is a disease, my response will be heartfelt.

Acknowledging the authority held by local imams, these officials held community meetings with local Somali leaders to engage the local community and posted culturally relevant information on a website specifically designed for their Somali Muslim constituents. By enlisting the support of local Muslim leadership, these efforts ultimately led to high levels of Corovax acceptance among Somali Muslims in King County.

The arrogance of All Progress Is Good Progress thinking is breathtaking.

The concerns of African Americans were very different. Distrust of new treatments, including vaccines, was not a new phenomenon among African American communities. The legacy of the Tuskegee syphilis experiments and the fact that during the 2014 Ebola outbreak, experimental therapeutics were not made available to Thomas Eric Duncan (a Liberian traveler who had died of Ebola in Dallas, Texas)…

I still remember the furor when the CDC deliberately shipped Africans so sick with Ebola that they were vomiting blood into the heartland of the United States for “testing”. I do not know the names of the people who thwarted the release of Ebola at the time, but thank you.

…nor to many West African communities struck by Ebola, meant that many African Americans . particularly those living in communities consuming media through local, traditional media platforms . feared the possibility of being subjected to scientific experimentation. These fears worsened during healthcare providers. analysis of EHRs in Los Angeles County, which identified many African American communities (as well as other minority populations) as lacking access to primary care. In some areas, aggressive public health vaccination campaigns were locally interpreted as direct examples of experimentation. Repurposing hashtags like #BlackLivesMatter, some African Americans in these communities began to actively campaign against Corovax.

CORRECTLY interpreted as direct examples!

These protests, along with the anti-vaccine messages shared by the supergroup, subsequently received wide, national coverage through traditional media outlets, including local and national television news channels. While the US government attempted to respond to claims raised by the anti-vaccination super-group, their messages did not reach many members of the anti-vaccination groups because they had already tailored their social media and news feeds to reflect only the opinions of those with whom they agreed.

I have been trying SO hard to not curse at the hypocrisy and inhumanity on display here…

On the other hand, the government messages were effective among some segments of the general US population who had not limited their news feeds, and more importantly, they served to galvanize a burgeoning pro-vaccination campaign.

…but they keep provoking me! I don’t even know what it’s like to have a limited news feed! I couldn’t avoid the Socialists by hiding under a rock in the wilderness because Wi-Fi!

Paul Farmer, the renowned global health expert, provided the dialogue for the first of these, wherein he lauded the safety and efficacy of Corovax and underscored the dangers of SPARS. His only regret, he said, was that the vaccine could not yet be made available to everyone on the planet. In the second message, former President Bennett redeemed herself by televising her vaccination as well as the vaccination of two of her granddaughters.

One last try of the early methods. More education. More ‘Trusted Leaders’. More ‘Mommy Cares!’

And then, Step 3 of handling “those damn Christians!”, after tracking us and coopting our leaders failed:

As time passed and more people across the United States were vaccinated, claims of adverse side effects began to emerge. Several parents claimed that their children were experiencing neurological symptoms similar to those seen among livestock exposed to the GMI vaccine. By May 2027, parental anxiety around this claim had intensified to the point of lawsuits. That month, a group of parents whose children developed mental retardation as a result of encephalitis in the wake of Corovax vaccination sued the federal government, demanding removal of the liability shield protecting the pharmaceutical companies responsible for developing and manufacturing Corovax.

TOTALLY a hypothetical situation. Couldn’t happen in real life. Just because your symptoms match the fate of Doctor Feelgood’s pig means NOTHING!!! You ignorant peasant!

The growing plaintiff cohort quickly withdrew their suit upon learning that the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Trust Fund (NVICTF) and an emergency appropriation of funds authorized by Congress under the PREP Act existed to provide financial reimbursement to those who were adversely affected by the Corovax vaccine in order to cover healthcare costs and other related expenses.

Pay them hush money, how original.

The focus on adverse side effects, however, resulted in a considerable increase in the number of compensation claims filed, and many grew concerned about the long-term effects that Corovax could have on their health. This concern was particularly high among some African American parents who continued to question the government’s motives regarding the Corovax vaccination campaign.

“Big Brother lied to us AGAIN!” That totally won’t happen with real COVID, either.

While the FDA, CDC, and other agencies were busy researching possible connections between Corovax and the reported neurological side effects, their efforts were continually undermined by epidemiological analyses produced by various non-governmental individuals and groups. A popular science blogger EpiGirl, for example, began posting interactive maps of the incidence of Corovax side effects in April 2027. To create the maps, EpiGirl collected anecdotes of adverse Corovax side effects using Facebook, Twitter and YouTube and combined them with data downloaded from the HHS Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), a national vaccine safety surveillance program maintained by the CDC and FDA. EpiGirl also encouraged those among her subscribers who were Apple product users to share health data with her via Apple’s ResearchKit and HealthKit applications. EpiGirl’s maps were consequently shared widely in social media circles and even included in local and national news reports.

The federal government became concerned about the validity of EpiGirl’s anecdotal data and the widespread sharing of patient information via the internet.

“Yes, you conclusively proved that we’re evil scumbags who are exclusively responsible for the failing health of the entire global population of humanity, an act of genocidal treachery so big that it’ll never be repeated for eternity, but you also shared patient info without our permission so your results aren’t valid.”

Even in their daydreams, SJWs always lie and double down.

EpiGirl’s data showed a significantly higher incidence rate of nearly every reported side effect; however, federal officials believed that this was largely due to duplicate entries resulting from compiling data from multiple sources. Additionally, EpiGirl.s data did not seek to address the cause of the reported side effects, only the incidence rate.

Rebuilding the mound of a failed Narrative!

I am astonished that these authors are lying to themselves and the world even as a theoretical exercise. But then, my thesis from the beginning is that this SPARS scenario is *not* theoretical.

Publication of similar results from organizations such as Patients-Like-Me, a group closely associated
with the natural medicine movement…

Yay Christians!

…further legitimized these independent reports. The government attempted to respond to these claims through formal press releases, but these were neither as visually appealing nor as interactive as EpiGirl’s maps and were, therefore, largely ignored.

What happens when there are no spells left to cast, no leaders still Trusted and hush money doesn’t work?

As these cases emerged, patients began filing for compensation under the PREP Act. Due to lingering uncertainties over possible links between vaccination and reported neurological symptoms, their compensation requests were placed on indefinite hold, pending further data analysis.

Wait for the crisis to blow over, eh? Worth a try but unlikely when “Our flesh is rotting off our bones because we trusted you!” The scenario doesn’t say the answer but history does. If your government is totalitarian, and you’re too sick to be productive, and nobody will hear you scream if your social media account is deleted… then those contact tracers will trace you down for one last contact and Big Brother will save a buck, less the cost of a bullet.

So, there’s how the Deep State views this Plandemic. Its top priority is appearing wise and informative even if it’s actually making the problem worse. Anybody who points that out will be in dire need of more education. Its primary vehicle for controlling the population is first magic words on social media, then Trusted Leader convergence, and then by tracking us, marginalizing us and finally… we Christians know what’s coming… locking us out of the global economy to starve in the outer darkness of extreme self-reliance. As if we would want to stay for the inevitable!

The Day the Thinking Stopped

Bruce Charlton asks an important, deep, philosophical question: “Why did so many people take stupid pills last year?” He phrased it more kindly:

h ttps://charltonteaching.blogspot.com/2021/04/why-now-why-did-2020-have-to-wait-until.html

Modern totalitarianism is, therefore, so effective because modern people have outsourced their thinking to The System.

If modern people were to think, really to think; then the current totalitarianism would not be possible; because people would observe for themselves, evaluate for themselves, would notice.

The kind part is he believes that people are still thinking in any factual capacity. The sad truth is that people have been trying very hard for years now, to NOT think about what they do because the correct answers honor Christ. That is why the totalitarians have been so effective… because people know they’re lying and don’t care.

In hindsight, this has been a long time in coming. Women being placed in authority and government/Church leaders reducing Christianity (and all religions generally) into pick-your-own faith traditions happened only by many people consciously rejecting the correct way of doing things, while assuming they’ll still be able to achieve the desirable results of a society worth living in.

When wicked men swapped out the last vestiges of normal life, the belief continued that results were separate from behavior. There was the initial fear-mongering, true, but what I’ve seen in urban Commiefornia since Christmas is that people have come to accept face diapers and social distancing as normal.

Romans Chapter 1 spells out what is happening.

v. 18-20 “The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities.his eternal power and divine nature.have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.”

Hebrews 11:1 says it differently: “Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see”. How were Christians such capable scientists while the East languished? We both had observable reality but Christians believed there was something unseen behind it all… consequences, patterns, a CREATOR.

It did not take long for science to reduce itself to the visible, of course. Observation and experimentation, testing and refinement of theories. A process so inhuman that many futurists expect it to be done entirely by computer algorithm in the near future.

It never will be, because computers cannot glorify God.

v. 21-23 “For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.”

Images such as Chinaballs and Dr. Fauci, who does an amazingly good job of being a blank slate for whatever lie concerning COVID that you favor. The only thing he’s consistent and certain about is that no longer needing him will destroy all humanity.

That’s not science, that’s the court astrologer bluffing his employer. Also, idolatry.

Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator.who is forever praised. Amen.

And there it is. The thinking of the people has become futile because they consciously abandoned God. Demonstrated most spectacularly by “male and female” being turned into “anything butt!”

Enough theory, let’s have an example!

Scientists Are Reporting Hostility From Their Own Churches. Why?

h ttps://www.christianitytoday.com/better-samaritan/2021/april/scientists-are-reporting-hostility-from-their-own-churches-.html

By Drew Rick-Miller, 1 April 2020

April Fool’s Day is cancelled because how does one mock Current Year? Here, look at this graph of perennial influenza outbreaks then tell me we have a pandemic:

When I say people took stupid pills, this is exactly what I’m talking about. They think that graph is reality instead of the CDC rebranding the flu as Coof-Coof. They celebrate the end of annual influenza while simultaneously abandoning all social behavior in terror, because face diapers are simultaneously perfect and useless.

And then I’m supposed to do something funny for April Fool’s Day? Our fools are EVERY day!

Anyway. Scientists.

The author, Drew. Kinda pudgy, doesn’t get much sunlight. I expect a sheltered life.

Drew Rick-Miller is Co-Director of Science for the Church, a ministry that seeks to strengthen the church by engaging science. Previously, he spent over a decade as a grants officer at the John Templeton Foundation. Drew studied literature and physics at Northwestern University before attending Princeton Theological Seminary (M.Div.) where he met his wife, a Presbyterian pastor.

I’m sure Drew is very smart, which means he understands his Bible, which means he rejected God in order to marry that rebellious woman. This is a good example of how rejecting God can start a downward trend. Drew can’t be too logical or consistent in his theology without recognizing what a mistake he made!

.How was I treated in the church as a scientist? Man, that’s a trigger question for me. The simple answer is, not very well. Sadly, our long history of often experiencing rejection or simply being ignored is disillusioning for me..

.I have encountered more hostility as a scientist in a world of Christians, than I have as a Christian in a world of scientists..

Two scientists, two replies to how they are received in our churches, and neither reflects well on the Body of Christ. It is no wonder that many scientists keep their heads down and don’t draw attention to their day jobs. But that does not mean they are absent in our churches.

The only way Drew can believe those sentiments are genuine is that his job requires such beliefs to exist. A director of “Science for the Church”, remember? I’ve been a lifelong Christian and I’ve never seen anti-science attitudes in any church of any denomination, ever. What might be the situation here?

  1. The scientists were upset that their evolution and related Godless beliefs were not accepted.
  2. The narrow-minded Bible-thumpers couldn’t handle alternative viewpoints.
  3. The scientists were hated for being men, not for being scientists.

The winner is… Number 3!

My father is one such scientist, a traffic engineer whose job it is to make sure you can get in and out of the parking lots of shopping malls. My mother recounts the story.I was quite young at the time.of his offering of time and talent. Our church was renovating their parking lot. Dad was not particularly active in the church at the time, but he willingly offered to help. His offer was met with silence. No matter the intent, the silence communicated that his vocation, his offer of ministry, did not matter to the church.

It wasn’t his vocation that was rejected… it was him, an ordinary man, trying to muscle into the spotlight! I do not doubt that the pastor would have happily hired Drew’s father as a laborer because hired help are not family and therefore, no threat to his position as Anointed Leader of God’s Church.

This bears repeating: the church turned down free, professional-level assistance because accepting it would have shown respect to a layman. That’s another example of how rejecting God leads to stupidity.

That happened to me also. It happened that my church at the time wanted to do something that was exactly my career field. I offered help and in return, not even a smile from the church elder I approached. And I was a tithe-paying regular!

Pew estimates that nearly 13% of the American workforce is found in one of 74 STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) professions. Sociologists Elaine Howard Ecklund and Christopher Scheitle have found that about 12.4% of evangelicals and 11.9% of mainline Protestants claim that their occupation is science-related.

The number of STEM professionals in the church could grow, significantly. Barna found that over 50% of youth group teens “aspire to science-related careers..

Because they seek to find God in the equations? No, because girls are being pushed into STEM. Intentionally recruiting women because “throw rocks at boys” is not a derp happening in a vacuum. It’s Original Sin. The STEM-pushers reject how God created us and as a direct consequence, became foolish in their thinking. They’ll end up with untrained men and single-mother-medical-doctors.

The question, then, is how do we treat the scientists, both current and aspiring, in our pews? And why do so many report hostility or rejection?

You will not answer that question without first asking, why does the Church hate men unless they’re in the band Pastor Limelight and the Elders? And asking second, “why are you raising your daughter to be a scientist instead of a mother?”

Biology says men can’t have babies and old women can’t have healthy babies, if any. That means society’s women needs to marry young and get busy. Where’s your love for science NOW, Dads of Daughters?

The Priesthood of all Scientists
Martin Luther laid the foundation for how many Protestant churches understand ministry. It is the entire body of Christ.not just the work of the professional clergy.that composes the “priesthood of all believers.” This includes the farmer and barber as well as the teacher, engineer, and the neuroscientist. They all do ministry, but that may not always be obvious. It might take a little imagination to understand the priestly work of the STEM professionals within our churches.

That’s not Protestantism. Laymen can do the work of priests, yes, but that does not mean all work is priest-work.

A good number of them seek to read the book of nature, the other book that God the Creator has written for us. They stand in the lineage of Christians in the sciences who have sought to understand God through both Scripture and the natural world. They study God’s handiwork in biochemical processes and in how stars form and in the laws govern the smallest imaginable particles. They seek to understand how life works and how nature interacts with nurture. In a paraphrase of 17th century astronomer, Johannes Kepler, they think God’s thoughts after him.

None of that is ministry. None of that is priestly work. None of those examples, frankly, challenge the human soul. Our sciences are very precise when it comes to subatomic particles in other galaxies… but as soon as you approach the human condition, you get lies like “birthing person”.

That is where science fails. It cannot make moral judgments. Most people today love science and reject God because science tells us how while God tells us No.

There are inevitable consequences for doing what ought not be done.

Another portion of these STEM professionals teach what those investigations into the book of nature have revealed. They inspire our children (and us) with the magnificence of the created order, nurture our curiosity, and make space for inquisitive minds to learn more about the God who created and continues to create. Their images and narratives can inspire us to worship.

STEM itself is a trap of Godlessness. It is a reduction of science to exploitable and marketable skillsets. EVERY career honors God… how much honor depends on your attitude, not “discovering the secrets of the cosmos”. Attitude becomes very important when your career’s only moral principle is “I must know”.

Probably the largest number of them seek to glorify God by applying science to address real needs.

Probably the largest number of them want a paycheck. That, too, is Godly. Earn your food!

They play major roles in the effort to heal the sick, provide food for the hungry, build shelter for the stranger, and fix broken things. They create the technologies, energy solutions, materials, and medicines that have helped improve the quality of life for the Earth’s 7.8 billion people. They also help identify where technological progress is misaligned with human well-being.

So we see here that the ministry of the scientist is in discovery and teaching about the glories of God’s handiwork and in the ways they use their God given talents to contribute to human flourishing.

Drew, that’s the problem. Our society no longer seeks God unless God is useful toward the end product. We wants results, not methods! That’s why science is failing right now, because its practitioners threw out God to focus on results. We are warned against that. Matthew 6:31-33 “…Do not worry, saying, .What shall we eat?. or “What shall we drink?. or “What shall we wear?. For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”

We can have all the science and engineering in the world and still lose the material progress we’ve made since our caveman days. Exhibit “A”: Amazon warehouse workers.

Amazon denies stories of workers peeing in bottles, receives a flood of evidence in return

h ttps://www.theverge.com/2021/3/25/22350337/amazon-peeing-in-bottles-workers-exploitation-twitter-response-evidence

Amazon is trying a new tactic in its endless PR battle against stories of its exhausting and exploitative working conditions: outright denial. It’s not working.

When replying to a tweet from Rep. Mark Pocan (D-WI) complaining about the company’s union-busting tactics and the fact that some of its workers are forced to “urinate in water bottles,. Amazon’s official Twitter account responded: .You don’t really believe the peeing in bottles thing, do you? If that were true, nobody would work for us..

..after Amazon sent out its ill-judged tweet, reporters who cover the company’s labor practices practically lined up to soak the firm with evidence. These included English journalist James Bloodworth, whose 2018 book Hired: Six Months Undercover in Low-Wage Britain documented his experience of low-paid work for companies including Amazon:

I was the person who found the pee in the bottle. Trust me, it happened. https://t.co/U76UlDRWSO

Here.s Will Evans from The Center of Investigative Reporting:

Peeing at Amazon – or not being able to – is an actual thing. Here’s what workers told me. https://t.co/D0lp4pdQ5D https://t.co/eqFiS8WZbG pic.twitter.com/RVLOYezGvE

And Lauren Kaori Gurley from Motherboard. (Gurley also wrote a story with photographic evidence, including numerous examples from the subreddit for Amazon delivery drivers.)

As a labor reporter who covers Amazon extensively…I can say Amazon delivery drivers not having a time or place to pee is one of the most universal concerns I hear about https://t.co/pG81MDf5TU pic.twitter.com/h3pGhOok1y

And Ken Bensinger from BuzzFeed News:

Amazon claims its workers don’t pee in bottles; defenders say it’s an urban legend. But these photos sent to me by a former driver for a former @amazon contractor called Synctruck in a California facility suggest strongly otherwise. https://t.co/hp4zCqOxRO pic.twitter.com/StHNvV9B1x

And Alex Press from Jacobin, who shares a much grimmer anecdote of an Amazon worker who suffered a seizure in one of the company’s facilities:

my first response to this was to laugh because it’s such a ridiculous tweet but honestly, this is infuriating. here are the type of texts Amazon workers send me https://t.co/7hW5miBob8 pic.twitter.com/bENxlqzsPa

The Intercept added yet more evidence to the mounting case against Amazon with a new report published on Thursday detailing not only more cases of drivers urinating into bottles, but also resorting to defecating into bags. And the most damning reveal is that Amazon was made aware of this because it began reprimanding employees for the behavior when the bottles and bags were left inside Amazon delivery vehicles…

Hiring Pajeet and Harambe undid about four centuries’ worth of Progress in sanitation science. The problem, sir, is not in the pipes.

Other evidence includes the high injury rates in Amazon warehouses (7.7 serious injuries per 100 employees); employees dying from COVID-19 after complaints the company wasn’t doing enough to mitigate risks from the virus; widespread union-busting; production targets that treat humans like robots; and gruesome anecdotes like the story of the Amazon worker who died from a heart attack and who, say colleagues, was left on the work floor for 20 minutes before receiving treatment.

The largest, most impressive logistics chain in human history… and you’d have a better life by swimming in the Ganges River.

End segue

But I don’t think the pandemic has changed much for how our churches engage all of the others who read the book of nature and try to apply that knowledge to every aspect of God’s majestic creation. If anything, the pandemic has occupied so much of our attention, they have simply been ignored.

Which is a shame because these STEM professionals among us bring a plethora of knowledge and skills and kingdom-oriented intent to church. They seek to be good Samaritans with their God-given abilities. How can we undo the past hostility and rejection? How do we flip the script and tell them they matter to the church?

The congregation of my early childhood did not convey to my father that his engineering talents mattered. And in my lifetime, he has never been active in church. I can’t help but wonder how different it could have been if they had asked him to help with that parking lot.

People have taken stupid pills because they have consciously rejected the God of Truth. Until society recognizes both the concept of Eternal Truth and how we tend to live in rebellion against it, society is trying to do calculus while assuming 2+3=23.

They say they want science. Like God, however, good science requires behavior modification from valuable lies to unpleasant truths. As scientific knowledge continues to grow and confirm the rightness of God’s decrees, humanity discovers that it would rather be lied to by devils.

For a closing example, Zman did a Sunday post about dissident Christians and dissident atheists coming together:

h ttps://thezman.com/wordpress/?p=23318

That is the main point of [my] show this week. Secular people need to get more comfortable talking about religion, but dissident Christians need to reexamine their hostility to certain dissident topics. The fact is a large majority of white people consider themselves Christians. On the other hand, a large majority of dissidents long for a return to tradition. There is no reason why religion should not be an integral part of dissident politics, even if many dissidents are not religious.

“We can have religion without being religious.” Zman is normally a better thinker than that. Certainly, we Christians are not going to change God’s hostility to ‘certain dissident topics’.

This exchange from the comments drives the point home:

.While I disagree with him on several things, notably the possibility of political ethnostates in the current era (which, admittedly, could change due to events), but Greg Johnson has made the best argument yet in this area. The case for White nationalism/identity is a MORAL one. This is how to bridge the gap between Christians and secularists, I think, and is happening to some degree..

“Greg the Sodomite makes the case for morality . great, just great. Surely there must be non-degenerate writers and intellectuals making the moral case for Whites, if in fact we need a moral case to exist and have preferences. If it’s difficult enough to form an alliance with race-conscious Christians as it is, how much harder will it be when we’re offering a buggerer as our moral guide.”

“I do not have a clue as to whether Johnson is homosexual or not. Regardless, the morality of White identity/nationalism is an excellent and persuasive argument to reach people. No, we do not need a moral argument to exist but it is certainly there and a way to span the gap.”

Tolerate sodomy in order to cooperate on white nationalism? That’s stupid. How does one build a strong ethnostate without insisting on the father-led nuclear family for a building block? The result may be desirable but forcing the result without the correct methods… here, enforcing healthy sexual norms… is a blind staggering from one tyranny to another.
