Fake Fact-Checkers Ridiculed Over Activist’s Climate Scare Apology
Written by Rod Lampard
Facebook fact-checkers have tagged veteran environmentalist Michael Shellenberger’s Forbes article as “partly false.”
The widely shared article, ‘On Behalf Of Environmentalists, I Apologize For The Climate Scare’, first published on Forbes, rejected ‘climate alarmism’, and featured Shellenberger apologizing for how ‘badly environmentalists have misled the public’ about the relatively new field of climate science.
Facebook’s Climate Science fact-checking “Climate Feedback” evaluated Shellenberger’s article, arguing that he allegedly ‘mixed accurate and inaccurate claims in support of a misleading and overly simplistic argumentation about climate change.’
In the pseudo-peer review, Climate Feedback cited ‘six scientists who “analyzed” the article, estimating its overall scientific credibility to be ‘low’. Stating that [an ambiguous] majority of reviewers tagged the article as Cherry-picking, Misleading.’
The six scientists were Daniel Swain (UCLA, Climate Scientist), Gerardo Ceballos (Autonomous University of Mexico, Ecologist), Jennifer Francis, (Arctic Researcher, Woods Hole Research Center), Ryan Shriver (UOI, Associate Professor), Zeke Hausfather (Climate Scientist, Berkley U, & Director of Climate & Energy, Breakthrough Institute), and StefanDoerr (Wildlife Science and Geography researcher, Swansea U).
Hausfather and Swain formed the core “reviewers”, with Hausfather’s being the most outspoken. Credentials matter, but prima facie, this isn’t surprising.
Hausfather appears to benefit more from Apocalyptic Climate Change hysteria and therefore has more to lose from Shellenberger’s exposure to any potential climate change fraud than the rest.
The move to quickly slam the credibility door shut on Shellenberger infers that those who are more environmental activist than scientist are in damage control.
Apparent by the desperate move to counter any loss of ground (funding?), should backers begin to take Shellenberger’s apology for misleading the public on man-made catastrophic Climate Change seriously.
By marking Shellenberger’s article as “partly false”, surely Climate Feedback’s reviewers have inferred that the article is “partly true.” Curiously enough, though, Climate Feedback focused on the “partly false”, and ignored the “partly true.”
This kind of one-sided, selective fact checking raises its own questions about bias. Are fact-checkers sorting truth from falsehood, or buttressing ‘herd madness’ and it’s shared narrative?
Or as Ian Plimer has posited, are scientists who are in the employ of politicians, Big Tech and the leftist hegemony, ‘crushing opposition to ensure that science serves politics?’ The so-called “facts” simply just follow the money.
Who fact checks the fact-checkers? Why are most fact-checkers almost certain to be left-leaning activists?
In sum, is Climate Feedback to be trusted as a reliable source?
Author and investigative journalist, Donna Laframboise doesn’t think so. Commenting on an unrelated fact check, Laframboise noted strategic omissions from Climate Feedback reviewers, stating their absolute reliance on the peer-review mechanic to attack credibility instead of holistically evaluating an idea or argument for accuracy, undermined their own credibility.
As Laframboise states, ‘peer review is no guarantee. Not of credibility. And not of accuracy. Fact-checkers who say otherwise are [themselves] profoundly misleading the public.’
Ian Plimer seconds this: ‘just because a scientific paper is peer-reviewed does not mean it is correct. The peer-reviewed scientific literature is full of papers that contradict each other so they can’t all be right.
Peer-review does not stop bad science being published. Scientific theories live or die on evidence, not whether or not they were published in the peer-reviewed literature.’
While Shellenberger’s activist “scientist” assassins, didn’t throw down another “sit down and shut up – the science-is-settled, you must “believe” the science” vitriolic, their case against him isn’t airtight.
It comes across as a carefully crafted, neatly packaged denouncement of Shellenberger.
One that’s too conveniently aligned with largely leftist dominated Big Tech, and big money, to dismiss any suspicions of bias on behalf of said fact check reviewers, some of whom appear to be well-positioned, and well-funded members of the fearmongering Gaian priesthood.
To apply the words of Andreas Vou from Spiked-Online, the contempt towards Shellenberger is an example of how ‘terrible of an idea it is to have Big Tech companies act as arbiters of truth.’
To pad the point, Forbes has since suppressed Shellenberger’s article, removing it from his Forbes author page.
Shellenberger isn’t backing down. He’s posted a rebuttal to Climate Feedback and has challenged Facebook’s censorship.
His original article is available on Environmental Progress and a PDF is accessible here.
The explosive piece also kick-started the launch of his book, ‘Apocalypse Never: Why Environmental Alarmism Hurts Us All’, an excerpt of which has been made available by Shellenberger on Quillette.

principiascientificinternational--2020-07-20--8 ‘Facts’ About COVID-19 That Are Actually Lies

8 ‘ Facts ’ About COVID-19 That Are Actually Lies Have you ever pondered the fact that the current COVID lockdown , masks , and fear may be a result of official “ facts ” that are not facts at all but are , well , actually lies ?
In our opinion , the propaganda campaign surrounding this so-called “ pandemic ” has achieved its goal .
Inundated with voluminous amounts of contradictory information coming from all angles , people in general have succumbed to “ analysis paralysis , ” confusion and fear .
Many have given up trying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decided that , regardless of how insane or illogical the directives may be , it ’ s just easier to act like “ robotic sheeple ” and obey … even if it means giving up freedom and liberty .
We constantly hear about the “ new normal ” which includes COVID testing , contact tracing , monitoring , surveillance , mask-wearing , social distancing , quarantine and isolation , with the possibility of mandatory vaccinations and microchipping coming soon .
But cognitive dissonance has taken over .
For instance , multiple studies have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matter of minutes , as reported in a recent New York Post article .
There are several official “ facts ” which have led to this insane state of fear and irrational and illogical recommendations about COVID , and in this article , we ’ re going to prove , without a shadow of a doubt , that they are lies .
OFFICIAL “ FACT ” # 1 : If a mayor or governor or other “ official ” issues a COVID directive , it ’ s the same thing as a law @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one below , seen in store windows across the USA , are lies .
There is no national law in America requiring citizens to wear face masks .
There are no state laws in America requiring citizens to wear face masks .
There are “ executive orders ” … which are not laws .
There are “ government recommendations ” … which are not laws .
There are “ health and safety guidelines ” … which are not laws .
OFFICIAL “ FACT ” # 2 : The COVID “ Virus ” Has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is based upon the idea that there is a new distinct virus SARS-CoV2 which is spreading , infecting and causing the disease known as “ COVID-19.
” However , the virus itself has never been isolated nor thoroughly proven to be causing the disease .
The fact is that the coronavirus fails Koch ’ s postulates .
Robert Koch ( 1843-1910 ) was a German scientist who identified the specific causative agents of tuberculosis , cholera and anthrax .
He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1905 .
Before he died , Koch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agent of a disease .
These criteria ( “ Koch ’ s postulates ” ) have become a “ gold standard ” for determining the existence of an infectious agent and for isolating and verifying what is causing a disease .
They are as follows : • The microorganism must be identified in all individuals affected by the disease , but not in healthy individuals .
• The microorganism can be isolated from the diseased individual and grown in culture .
• When introduced into a healthy individual , the cultured microorganism must @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then be re-isolated from the experimental host , and found to be identical to the original microorganism .
Firstly , SARS-CoV2 ( allegedly causing the disease COVID-19 ) has not been shown to be present only in sick people and not in healthy ones .
There are countless cases of people having this virus with absolutely no symptoms .
So it FAILS postulate # 1 .
And since it fails postulate # 1 , it also FAILS postulate # 3 .
Secondly , SARS-CoV2 has never been isolated .
Proper isolation must be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and can not be achieved through CT scans ( which the Chinese were using ) or the PCR test ( more on this in Assumption 3 below ) .
So it FAILS postulate # 2 .
And since it fails postulate # 2 , it also FAILS postulate # 4 , since re-isolation can not take place if isolation has never occurred .
Heck , even a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine admitted that the coronavirus failed Koch ’ s postulates .
The most common test for COVID-19 is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ PCR ) test , which is able to replicate DNA sequences billions of times .
This test has SERIOUS problems .
The PCR test was developed as a manufacturing technique , not as a diagnostic tool , and it is qualitative not quantitative .
“ What exactly does that mean ?
” This means that the PCR test can only tell you if a virus is present or not , but it can not tell you in what quantities .
Most importantly it can not make any accurate assessment about whether the virus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , even the CDC itself admits that a positive PCR test does not mean the virus is causing the symptoms you may have !
These are the actual words of the CDC : “ Positive [ test ] results are indicative of active infection with 2019-nCoV but do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses .
The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease .
… Negative results do not preclude 2019-nCoV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient @ @ @ @ @ @ @ combined with clinical observations , patient history , and epidemiological information.
” If the scientific “ gold standard ” COVID-19 test ( the PCR ) doesn ’ t even provide proof that the virus causes the disease , why is everyone rushing around like a headless chicken ?
The PCR test doesn ’ t identify or isolate viruses , doesn ’ t provide RNA sequences of pathogens , offers no baseline for comparison with patient samples , and can not determine an infected from an uninfected sample .
That is staggeringly useless and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we have no idea how many people actually have COVID-19 .
The CDC can not “ confirm ” something for which there is no accurate test .
OFFICIAL “ FACT ” # 4 : The COVID-19 Official “ Death Count ” is Accurate When it comes to the COVID-19 “ death count , ” authorities worldwide are counting the deaths in a way that makes no sense , whatsoever .
If someone dies after testing positive for parasitic infection , they are not listed as a “ PARASITE-19 ” death… If someone dies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they are not listed as a “ FUNGAL-19 ” death… If someone dies after testing positive for herpes virus , they are not listed as a “ HERPES-19 ” death… But if someone dies after testing positive for Coronavirus , they ARE listed as a “ COVID-19 ” death… Does anyone see a problem here ?
The sleight of hand is achieved by counting those who died the Coronavirus as dying the Coronavirus , even though the CDC admits that a positive PCR test does not necessarily mean it ’ s the cause @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one trick alone is responsible for vastly skewing the numbers and turning the “ official ” death count into a meaningless charade bereft of any practical value .
OFFICIAL “ FACT ” # 5 : COVID-19 is Exploding in the USA !
“ Then why do the COVID-19 cases continue to increase ?
” The answer is simple : because there is more testing .
Since the Coronavirus is really nothing more than an RNA sequence , it ’ s far more pervasive than we have been told , and there are far @ @ @ @ @ @ @ told .
The more we test , the more cases we will find .
It ’ s basic mathematics .
It ’ s interesting , depending upon the country , the Coronavirus is able to “ travel ” different distances .
For instance , in China , Denmark , and France , the “ social distance ” rule is 1 meter .
In South Korea , it ’ s 1.4 meters .
In Australia , Belgium , Germany and Spain , it ’ s 1.5 meters .
In the USA it ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ while in Canada and the UK , it ’ s 2 meters .
Hmmm .
That ’ s not exactly “ scientific ” is it ?
Over long periods of time , social isolation can increase the risk of a variety of health problems , including heart disease , depression , dementia , and even death .
A 2015 meta-analysis determined that chronic social isolation increases the risk of mortality by 29 % .
OFFICIAL “ FACT ” # 7 : The COVID-19 “ Mortality Rate ” is VERY HIGH Most people are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feet under ” due to almost anything else under the sun other than COVID-19 .
Four infectious disease doctors in Canada estimate that the individual rate of death from COVID-19 for people under 65 years of age is six per million people , or 0.0006 % ( i.e.
, 1 in 166,666 ) which is about the same chance you have of dying in a car accident or getting struck by lightning .
COVID-19 is not even as bad as the seasonal flu .
OFFICIAL “ FACT ” # 8 : Everyone Should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ No studies have been done to demonstrate that either a cloth mask or the N95 mask has any effect on transmission of COVID-19 .
The fact is that masks are designed for surgeons or people who are already sick , not for healthy people , according to the WHO .
Plus , the “ masks ” many people are wearing ( bandanas , handkerchiefs , crochet , and yes , even lettuce ) are a joke if you think they will stop a virus which is measured in nanometers .
They won ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mask is like installing a screen door in a submarine .
Those who wear them might as well wear their pants backwards as well .
It ’ s like putting up a chain link fence to keep out mosquitoes .
It is a “ psy-op ” faux security measure .
And due to the COVID-19 fearmongering from the mainstream media liars , the lemmings are all wearing masks , despite the fact that on the box , it says that the mask does NOT protect you from COVID-19 .
Just say “ NO @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of wearing masks in public , and don ’ t let people get away with calling you “ selfish ” for not wearing a mask !
Educate them !
Read our articles on masks .
Let them know the truth .
For those who have ears to hear , it will resonate .
If we allow “ mask shaming ” to occur , then according to Dr. Joseph Mercola ; The decision to wear a mask is a highly personal one and should not be universally mandated ; measures that are meant to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ineffective if they hurt individuals in that community .
So , it ’ s a slippery slope .
Stand up for freedom , before it ’ s gone .
Let me explain where this is going .
Is this beyond the realm of possibility ?
In summary , it ’ s clear that “ Operation COVID-19 ” is not only a “ scam-demic , ” but also a colossal and unprecedented worldwide “ psy-op.
” All the “ Executive Orders ” and other types of power grabs are based on lies .
We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We are not looking at 1 cause .
We are not looking at 1 disease .
We are looking at multiple Coronaviruses , a group of related symptoms and diseases , with multiple causes , inadequate testing , with everything being swept under the COVID-19 “ umbrella ” to fuel the fake pandemic narrative .
In the words of our friend and investigative journalist , Jon Rappoport : The world did not “ lock down ” during centuries of epidemics of smallpox , and we didn ’ t stop working to prevent epidemics @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Societies have not closed businesses and schools to prevent TB or even the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918 .
The USA is teetering on a precipice .
Are we going to continue to act like “ sheeple ” ruled by fear ?

8 ‘Facts’ About COVID-19 That Are Actually Lies
Written by Ty & Charlene Bollinger
Have you ever pondered the fact that the current COVID lockdown, masks, and fear may be a result of official “facts” that are not facts at all but are, well, actually lies?
In our opinion, the propaganda campaign surrounding this so-called “pandemic” has achieved its goal. Inundated with voluminous amounts of contradictory information coming from all angles, people in general have succumbed to “analysis paralysis,” confusion and fear.
Many have given up trying to actually understand the situation and apparently have decided that, regardless of how insane or illogical the directives may be, it’s just easier to act like “robotic sheeple” and obey … even if it means giving up freedom and liberty.
We constantly hear about the “new normal” which includes COVID testing, contact tracing, monitoring, surveillance, mask-wearing, social distancing, quarantine and isolation, with the possibility of mandatory vaccinations and microchipping coming soon.
But cognitive dissonance has taken over. For instance, multiple studies have confirmed that sunlight kills COVID in a matter of minutes, as reported in a recent New York Post article.
There are several official “facts” which have led to this insane state of fear and irrational and illogical recommendations about COVID, and in this article, we’re going to prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that they are lies.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #1: If a mayor or governor or other “official” issues a COVID directive, it’s the same thing as a law.
For instance, signs like the one below, seen in store windows across the USA, are lies.
There is no national law in America requiring citizens to wear face masks.
There are no state laws in America requiring citizens to wear face masks.
There are “executive orders” … which are not laws.
There are “government recommendations” … which are not laws.
There are “health and safety guidelines” … which are not laws.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #2: The COVID “Virus” Has Been Identified & Isolated
The international lockdown is based upon the idea that there is a new distinct virus SARS-CoV2 which is spreading, infecting and causing the disease known as “COVID-19.” However, the virus itself has never been isolated nor thoroughly proven to be causing the disease.
The fact is that the coronavirus fails Koch’s postulates.
“What are Koch’s postulates?”
Robert Koch (1843-1910) was a German scientist who identified the specific causative agents of tuberculosis, cholera and anthrax. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1905. Before he died, Koch established 4 criteria to identify the causative agent of a disease. These criteria (“Koch’s postulates”) have become a “gold standard” for determining the existence of an infectious agent and for isolating and verifying what is causing a disease.
They are as follows:
The microorganism must be identified in all individuals affected by the disease, but not in healthy individuals. The microorganism can be isolated from the diseased individual and grown in culture. When introduced into a healthy individual, the cultured microorganism must cause disease. The microorganism must then be re-isolated from the experimental host, and found to be identical to the original microorganism.
Firstly, SARS-CoV2 (allegedly causing the disease COVID-19) has not been shown to be present only in sick people and not in healthy ones. There are countless cases of people having this virus with absolutely no symptoms. So it FAILS postulate #1. And since it fails postulate #1, it also FAILS postulate #3.
Secondly, SARS-CoV2 has never been isolated. Proper isolation must be done with equipment such as electron microscopes and cannot be achieved through CT scans (which the Chinese were using) or the PCR test (more on this in Assumption 3 below). So it FAILS postulate #2. And since it fails postulate #2, it also FAILS postulate #4, since re-isolation cannot take place if isolation has never occurred.
Heck, even a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine admitted that the coronavirus failed Koch’s postulates.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #3: COVID-19 “PCR” Testing is Accurate
The most common test for COVID-19 is the “Polymerase Chain Reaction” (PCR) test, which is able to replicate DNA sequences billions of times. This test has SERIOUS problems.
The PCR test was developed as a manufacturing technique, not as a diagnostic tool, and it is qualitative not quantitative.
“What exactly does that mean?”
This means that the PCR test can only tell you if a virus is present or not, but it cannot tell you in what quantities. Most importantly it cannot make any accurate assessment about whether the virus is actually causing the disease.
Heck, even the CDC itself admits that a positive PCR test does not mean the virus is causing the symptoms you may have!
These are the actual words of the CDC:
“Positive [test] results are indicative of active infection with 2019-nCoV but do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease. … Negative results do not preclude 2019-nCoV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. Negative results must be combined with clinical observations, patient history, and epidemiological information.”
What? Huh?
If the scientific “gold standard” COVID-19 test (the PCR) doesn’t even provide proof that the virus causes the disease, why is everyone rushing around like a headless chicken?
The PCR test doesn’t identify or isolate viruses, doesn’t provide RNA sequences of pathogens, offers no baseline for comparison with patient samples, and cannot determine an infected from an uninfected sample. That is staggeringly useless and scientifically meaningless!
The reality is that we have no idea how many people actually have COVID-19. The CDC cannot “confirm” something for which there is no accurate test.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #4: The COVID-19 Official “Death Count” is Accurate
When it comes to the COVID-19 “death count,” authorities worldwide are counting the deaths in a way that makes no sense, whatsoever.
Here’s why:
If someone dies after testing positive for parasitic infection, they are not listed as a “PARASITE-19” death…
If someone dies after testing positive for fungal infection, they are not listed as a “FUNGAL-19” death…
If someone dies after testing positive for herpes virus, they are not listed as a “HERPES-19” death…
But if someone dies after testing positive for Coronavirus, they ARE listed as a “COVID-19” death…
Does anyone see a problem here?
The sleight of hand is achieved by counting those who died with the Coronavirus as dying from the Coronavirus, even though the CDC admits that a positive PCR test does not necessarily mean it’s the cause of the symptoms or death.
This one trick alone is responsible for vastly skewing the numbers and turning the “official” death count into a meaningless charade bereft of any practical value.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #5: COVID-19 is Exploding in the USA!
“Then why do the COVID-19 cases continue to increase?”
The answer is simple: because there is more testing.
Since the Coronavirus is really nothing more than an RNA sequence, it’s far more pervasive than we have been told, and there are far more asymptomatic people than we have been told.
The more we test, the more cases we will find. It’s basic mathematics.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #6: Global “Social Distancing” Directives are Scientific
It’s interesting, depending upon the country, the Coronavirus is able to “travel” different distances. For instance, in China, Denmark, and France, the “social distance” rule is 1 meter. In South Korea, it’s 1.4 meters. In Australia, Belgium, Germany and Spain, it’s 1.5 meters. In the USA it’s 6 feet (1.8 meters), while in Canada and the UK, it’s 2 meters.
Hmmm. That’s not exactly “scientific” is it?
Over long periods of time, social isolation can increase the risk of a variety of health problems, including heart disease, depression, dementia, and even death. A 2015 meta-analysis determined that chronic social isolation increases the risk of mortality by 29%.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #7: The COVID-19 “Mortality Rate” is VERY HIGH
Most people are more likely to wind up “6 feet under” due to almost anything else under the sun other than COVID-19.
According to Daniel Horowitz:
For the first time, the CDC has attempted to offer a real estimate of the overall death rate for COVID-19 and under its most likely scenario, the number is 0.26%. Officials estimate a 0.4% fatality rate among those who are symptomatic and project a 35% rate of asymptomatic cases among those infected, which drops the overall infection fatality rate (IFR) to just 0.26% — almost exactly where Stanford researchers pegged it a month ago.”
Four infectious disease doctors in Canada estimate that the individual rate of death from COVID-19 for people under 65 years of age is six per million people, or 0.0006% (i.e., 1 in 166,666) which is about the same chance you have of dying in a car accident or getting struck by lightning. COVID-19 is not even as bad as the seasonal flu.
OFFICIAL “FACT” #8: Everyone Should Wear a Mask, Even Healthy People
No studies have been done to demonstrate that either a cloth mask or the N95 mask has any effect on transmission of COVID-19.
The fact is that masks are designed for surgeons or people who are already sick, not for healthy people, according to the WHO.
Plus, the “masks” many people are wearing (bandanas, handkerchiefs, crochet, and yes, even lettuce) are a joke if you think they will stop a virus which is measured in nanometers. They won’t stop a virus.
Wearing a mask is like installing a screen door in a submarine. Those who wear them might as well wear their pants backwards as well. It’s like putting up a chain link fence to keep out mosquitoes.
It is a “psy-op” faux security measure. And due to the COVID-19 fearmongering from the mainstream media liars, the lemmings are all wearing masks, despite the fact that on the box, it says that the mask does NOT protect you from COVID-19.
Just say “NO” to the “new normal” of wearing masks in public, and don’t let people get away with calling you “selfish” for not wearing a mask! Educate them! Read our articles on masks. Let them know the truth. For those who have ears to hear, it will resonate.
If we allow “mask shaming” to occur, then according to Dr. Joseph Mercola;
The same strategy will be used to label you a “selfish threat” to the public health if you don’t agree to be electronically tagged, tested and tracked by health officials when thousands of COVID-19 “contact tracers” fan out across America to test for COVID-19 infections. It is the same strategy that will be used when you are told you must get an antibody test and obtain an “immunity passport” before you are given back your freedom to participate in society — that is until a fast-tracked coronavirus vaccine is licensed and your passport to life and liberty becomes proof you have received a COVID-19 vaccine — perhaps simultaneously delivered and tracked via a microneedle quantum dot tattoo on your skin.”
The decision to wear a mask is a highly personal one and should not be universally mandated; measures that are meant to protect the community as a whole are ineffective if they hurt individuals in that community.
So, it’s a slippery slope. Stand up for freedom, before it’s gone.
Let me explain where this is going.
In 2020 – a face mask is required
In 2021 – a vaccine is required
In 2022 – a microchip is required
Is this beyond the realm of possibility?
In summary, it’s clear that “Operation COVID-19” is not only a “scam-demic,” but also a colossal and unprecedented worldwide “psy-op.”
All the “Executive Orders” and other types of power grabs are based on lies.
We are not looking at 1 virus.
We are not looking at 1 cause.
We are not looking at 1 disease.
We are looking at multiple Coronaviruses, a group of related symptoms and diseases, with multiple causes, inadequate testing, with everything being swept under the COVID-19 “umbrella” to fuel the fake pandemic narrative.
In the words of our friend and investigative journalist, Jon Rappoport:
The stage magic trick is easy to see, once you grasp the tactics: Claim to have discovered a new virus. Say it is spreading and needs to be contained. Invent an umbrella label for the epidemic: COVID-19. Start pulling all sorts of people with all sorts of different conditions under the umbrella and say they’re all “cases.” Use a diagnostic test that will automatically turn out many verdicts of “infected.” And you have the illusion of a pandemic.”
The world did not “lock down” during centuries of epidemics of smallpox, and we didn’t stop working to prevent epidemics of diphtheria or pertussis or measles.
Societies have not closed businesses and schools to prevent TB or even the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918.
According to Dr. Joseph Mercola:
Tomorrow, the “new normal” in America may well include the order to “show me your vaccine papers” before you can enter a store or restaurant, go to school, attend a football game, get on a plane, train or subway, obtain a driver’s license, be admitted to a hospital or nursing home, get a room at a hotel or walk on a public beach, if health policy and lawmakers do not use common sense to adopt a more balanced approach to dealing with a virus that, so far, has changed everything.”
The USA is teetering on a precipice. Are we going to continue to act like “sheeple” ruled by fear? Or are we brave men and women standing up for freedom and liberty? When are the states going to reopen?

No…climate alarm political pseudoscience never had anything to do with setting up an insane totalitarian control system monitoring and regulating all “carbon activity” on the planet.
Oh, wait.
It is almost as if there is some insane non-biological intelligence, or alien intelligence, or megalomaniacal psychopathic intelligence, which has some fundamental issues with carbon-based life.

In response to “In less than four months we’ve been transformed into Socialist obedient servants”
As Eric Blair, aka George Orwell, wrote in 1984 —
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
And that is the point. This is not just about this last 4 months — this is a process about control, mind control!
Change history, change the language, change scientific methods, teach the kids the new version, get generational animosity so that the state, not parents or religion, are seen and believed to be the saviors. Keep the populous uneasy, keep the hysteria going. And always keep repeating the lies.
Control the past and thus control the future.
Do the changes incrementally with little things — a few temperature records that the majority of people don’t care about. Build from that small beginning — changing people’s outlook about the climate, about energy, about manufacturing, about employment, wealth and happiness through broadcasting emotional sophistry and lies. But never stop repeating the lies.
Ensure that the language keeps changing — make older and harsher but more accurately descriptive words and phrases politically, socially ‘incorrect’ to use. Create new word, phrases, and idioms, using them to repeat the lies.
All the time ostracise, censor, and deplatform the neigh-sayers, those who rail against the consensus, through social engineering of sentiments against them. Silencing those tedious but rational types who can with clear eyes, look to historic and scientific facts and mathematics with logic and evidence that counters the official truth. And Keep repeating the lies.
Then move to unrest some of the populous, and with them create a means to have statues, monuments, street names removed or renamed, to make them become more ‘socially acceptable’. Keep the violence just high enough, and the police held back enough, so that the rest of the population are cowed into obeying whatever the state requires. All the while repeating the lies continuously.
Historical details will be rewritten within a whole new, re-written archive of truth — with the some of the past made to look worse than it was, some historical ‘facts’ erased, and some events, the ones the elites like will be emphasised and celebrated, pushed to the fore. And on it will go on with no big fuss. Small discrete changes slowly taking over how people think, talk, write, and act.
And keep repeating the lies.
And throughout always ensure that the new generation is taught the new version of the ‘official’ truth — keeping the inter-generational rift festering. All the while repeating the lies!

That something is “gene drive organisms”, and if that sounds to you a little “scary and creepy”, it’s because it’s far worse than that:
Normally I’d comment a great deal on stories like this, and I do intend to comment a bit today, but I don’t really think I need to do so extensively, because I’m sure that regular readers here will appreciate the rather horrifying implications of the following quotation from the article:
Synthetic gene drives are a new form of genetic engineering, created via the genetic engineering method CRISPR/CAS9, and are intended to permanently modify or eradicate populations, or even whole species, in the wild. They are currently defined as a system where genetic elements or traits have more than the usual 50% chance of being inherited, irrespective of whether they benefit or harm the organism inheriting them. The idea of gene drive technology is to force the inheritance of detrimental genetic traits.

This work was funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation under the Target Malaria project. … This is something that Martin Häusling, agricultural policy spokesman for the Greens and member of the European Parliament’s Environment Committee, called a “fundamental step for biodiversity,” warning that the long term consequences of this technology is “not foreseeable”. Mareike Imken, from the German initiative Save Our Seeds, concurred, saying that “while the risks of gene drive technology have not yet been scientifically assessed, it could have a massive impact on already damaged ecosystems,” adding that it is “irresponsible to expose species and ecosystems to further risks“. (Emphasis added)
So, boiling all this down, virus-spreading expert (both computer and the other kind) Baal Gates, through his Baal and Malicious Gates Foundation, is funding research into gene drive organisms (GDOs) in the hopes of reprogramming species or just eradicating them if they’re nasty and we don’t like them and they carry nasty diseases. (Notice the criterion here could be applied to just about any organism, including us, and let’s not forget that Baal Gates is one of those overpopulation nuts that have been with us since the Most Serene Republic of Venice.)

But, much as I dislike spiders and snakes, I realize that they do some good, if they’re not the human versions thereof. And as for Baal Gates, when I think of him (and I try not to do so), I think of the Peanuts cartoon character Pig Pen, surrounded always in a cloud of dust, dirt, and flies, or in this case, viruses.

Perhaps I am, and like all outlandish people, I claim the right to be wrong, or just simply outlandish. It later turned out that a couple of obscure papers had noticed that some genetic traits from GMOs started showing up in other organisms.

Exposing the Myth that Electric Vehicles are Green
Written by SRSROCCO
How can an electric car be called “Green” when it contains more than 700 pounds of plastic?? Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers are using more plastic to lower the weight of the car due to the massive battery used, weighing more than 1,000 pounds. Unfortunately, plastic is still made from petrochemicals, the so-called “Dirty Fossil-fuel Industry.”
So, without petrochemicals, the manufacture of electric cars would be extremely difficult. And the primary feedstock for plastic is natural gas liquids (NGLs). Due to the rapid rise in NGLs production, especially in the United States, plastic production has surged. We can see in the chart below, that the United States accounted for nearly 90% of global NGLs production growth since 2007.
So, with all this extra NGLs production, the United States has a monopoly on the Global NGLs Feedstock for going GREEN. Of the 3.8 million barrels per day (mbd) of NGLs global production growth since 2007, the United States accounted for 3.4 mbd of that total.
In tearing apart the “Green Electric Vehicle Myth,” I will focus this article only on the plastic component.
There seems to be this notion that cars manufactured 50 years ago were much heavier than vehicles today due to a higher percentage of metals used. This turns out to be false when we look at the data. According to an Autoweek article by Murliee Martin titled, 50 years of car weight gain: from the Chevelle to the Sonic, the Fairlane to the Focus, a 1967 mid-sized Chevy Chevelle weighed in at 2,915 pounds versus a 2,955 pounds for a 2017 Chevy Sonic subcompact car:
(image courtesy of Autoweek.com, General Motors & Pinterest)
Looks are deceiving… eh? If you read the article linked above, the 1967 Chevy Chevelle with all that metal and very little plastic actually weighed 40 pounds less than the subcompact 2017 Chevy Sonic. Go figure…
I know what you all might be thinking. How much plastic was in that 1967 Chevy Chevelle? Well, I don’t have the exact figure, but using data from the Chemical & Engineering News article, Plastics makers plot the future of the car, the chart below provides the amount of plastic for each year.
I estimated about 30 kilograms (66 pounds) of plastic for the 1967 Chevy Chevelle and 150 kilograms (331 pounds) for the 2017 Chevy Sonic. So, with both cars weighing about the same, the 1967 Chevelle only contained 2% of plastic while the 2017 Sonic consisted of 11% plastic.
How interesting… the newer cars contain more than 10% plastic, but the vehicle’s weight is heavier than the older cars built 50 years ago. Again, the 1967 Chevelle is 40 pounds lighter than the 2017 Chevy Sonic… and the Sonic is a smaller car.
Now, let’s move to the supposed “GREEN” Electric Vehicles. To keep the weight of the EV as low as possible, more plastic is being used. In the VisualCapitalist.com INFOGRAPHIC, How Much Oil Is In An Electric Vehicle, they provided the following quote:
…According to IHS Chemical, by 2020, the average car will use 772 pounds of plastic.
That is where I found the figure for the 2020 Tesla Electric vehicle in the chart above. The approximate average weight of a Tesla EV is 5,000 pounds +/-. Please understand, these figures are just guidelines, not actual amounts… but I would imagine they are in the ballpark.
How can the Electric Vehicle Industry be called “Green” if it consumes a massive amount of petrochemicals in the form of plastics?? Thus, each Electric Vehicle contains at least 15% of the weight in plastic, and I believe this amount will only increase going forward.
The entire GREEN RENEWABLE ENERGY mantra is nothing more than a warm-fuzzy Techno-Delusion. There is nothing Green about Electric Vehicles, Wind and Solar power. The only thing renewable about the Wind and Solar is that the wind will continue to blow, and the sun will continue to shine.
Without Oil, Natural Gas, and Coal, there wouldn’t be any Electric vehicles, Wind or Solar power. When the world wakes up to this fact, then we can start to consider “DEGROWTH” as an option than wasting more fossil fuels on pointless UN-RENEWABLE NON-GREEN EVs, Wind and Solar power.

principiascientificinternational--2020-07-18--Dr. Sherri Tenpenny: Masks Don’t Protect

Over the last several months , the battle lines regarding COVID19 have been drawn around the concept of masking .
Wearing a mask has become a symbol of staying together , of “ doing something ” to protect someone from getting sick with this generally mild infection .
The behavior of those who obsessively wear a mask , and scream at others who don ’ t , seem similar to those who vaccinate their children but forbid unvaccinated children in their playdates .
I want to respond the same to both groups : “ If your mask is protecting you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ m putting myself at risk of the flu ?
” ( similar to “ if your vaccines work , what are you worried about ?
” ) Wearing a mask has almost become nearly a cult-like participation and for some , masking seems to be a new fashion statement .
There ’ s even a name given to those who refuse to wear a mask : bare face .
Many governors have made masks mandatory , even if they have no legislative authority to do so .
I ’ ve spent the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , search for scientific proof that masks do what we are told they do : stop the spread of infection and protect the person who wears the mask from becoming ill. After reviewing more than 50 articles , here ’ s what I ’ ve discovered : • There are NO randomized , controlled trials ( RCT ) with verified outcomes that show a benefit to healthcare workers or community members for wearing a mask or a respirator .
There is no such definitive study .
Likewise , no study exists that shows @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wear masks in public ( documented below ) .
• Furthermore , if there were any benefits to wearing a mask , because of the blocking power against droplets and aerosol particles , then there should be more benefit from wearing a respirator ( N95 ) compared to a surgical mask .
There is not .
Neither masks nor respirators protect ; cloth coverings are essentially worthless .
• It should be noted that the surgical masks are primarily designed to protect the environment from the wearer , whereas the respirators are supposed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
( Balazy , et al ) .
• Coronavirus are < 0.125 microns in size .
Masks and respirators filter particles 0.30 to 0.80 microns in size .
Masks can not possibly work .
No bias-free study has ever found a benefit from wearing a mask or respirator in this application .

The behavior of those who obsessively wear a mask, and scream at others who don’t, seem similar to those who vaccinate their children but forbid unvaccinated children in their playdates. I want to respond the same to both groups: “If your mask is protecting you, why are you concerned that I’m putting myself at risk of the flu? ” (similar to “if your vaccines work, what are you worried about?”)
Wearing a mask has almost become nearly a cult-like participation and for some, masking seems to be a new fashion statement. There’s even a name given to those who refuse to wear a mask: bare face. Many governors have made masks mandatory, even if they have no legislative authority to do so.
I’ve spent the last two days combing the medical literature, search for scientific proof that masks do what we are told they do: stop the spread of infection and protect the person who wears the mask from becoming ill. After reviewing more than 50 articles, here’s what I’ve discovered:
There are NO randomized, controlled trials (RCT) with verified outcomes that show a benefit to healthcare workers or community members for wearing a mask or a respirator. There is no such definitive study . Likewise, no study exists that shows a benefit from a broad policy to wear masks in public (documented below).
. Likewise, no study exists that shows a benefit from a broad policy to wear masks in public (documented below). Furthermore, if there were any benefits to wearing a mask, because of the blocking power against droplets and aerosol particles, then there should be more benefit from wearing a respirator (N95) compared to a surgical mask. There is not. Neither masks nor respirators protect; cloth coverings are essentially worthless.
It should be noted that the surgical masks are primarily designed to protect the environment from the wearer, whereas the respirators are supposed to protect the wearer from the environment. (Balazy, et al).
Coronavirus are <0.125 microns in size. Masks and respirators filter particles 0.30 to 0.80 microns in size. Masks cannot possibly work. No bias-free study has ever found a benefit from wearing a mask or respirator in this application.
The pdf document found Here: Masks-Final has detailed references to back up these assertions. It’s time for us to revolt against the tyranny of our “rulers” with science that supports our decision to breathe oxygen, eliminate carbon dioxide and support a healthy immune system.

Study: South Atlantic magnetic field anomaly existed for 11 million years
Written by Amy Woodyatt
In case this was on your 2020 list of worries, the Earth’s magnetic field is not about to reverse itself. Strange behavior in the South Atlantic magnetic field can be traced back as far as 11 million years ago, and it’s unlikely to be linked to any impending reversal of the Earth’s magnetic field, researchers have found.
Earth’s magnetic poles, which serve as the foundation of our navigation, are actively moving. The magnetic field reverses its polarity every several hundred thousand years, where the magnetic North Pole resides at the geographic South Pole. The last reversal took place 770,000 years ago, but if a reversal happened during our lifetime, it could impact navigation, satellites and communications.
The perplexing behavior in the South Atlantic region causes technical disturbances in satellites and spacecraft orbiting Earth, which has left experts puzzled.
The area is one of debate between scientists, some of whom question where it comes from, and if it could signal the total weakening of the field, and even an upcoming pole reversal.
The Earth’s magnetic field protects our atmosphere from solar wind, which is a stream of charged particles coming from the sun. The geomagnetic field is not stable in strength and direction, and does have the ability to flip or reverse itself The South Atlantic Anomaly is an area stretching from Africa to South America where the Earth’s magnetic field is gradually weakening. Here’s the good news: In research published Monday, scientists from the University of Liverpool said they have proof that today’s South Atlantic Anomaly is a recurring feature, and is unlikely to be linked to any impending reversal of the Earth’s magnetic field. Researchers analyzed igneous rocks from Saint Helena island, a tiny volcanic island located right in the middle of the South Atlantic and lies in the South Atlantic Anomaly. Geomagnetic records from the rocks, which covered 34 volcanic eruptions from the area between 8 and 11 million years ago, revealed that the magnetic field for Saint Helena often pointed far from the North Pole — just as it does now. Largely generated by an ocean of superheated liquid iron in Earth’s core, the magnetic field creates electrical currents, which in turn generate our changing electromagnetic field. The field, which is not static, varies in both strength and direction, according to the European Space Agency. “Our study provides the first long-term analysis of the magnetic field in this region dating back millions of years,” saidlead author Yael Engbers, a doctoral student at the University of Liverpool, in a statement. “It reveals that the anomaly in the magnetic field in the South Atlantic is not a one-off; similar anomalies existed eight to 11 million years ago.” Read more at edition.cnn.com *** PRINCIPIA SCIENTIFIC INTERNATIONAL, legally registered in the UK as a company incorporated for charitable purposes.
