Marx’s Zombies

It is time we start listening to our kids .
No , I haven ’ t lost my mind… Social discord , previously dismissed as teenage growing pains , has turned into civil unrest with many panicked that the US election will trigger open violence , regardless of who wins .
The generation biting at our ankles have always been destructive .
They were insufferable as children , plaguing social media as an emotionally unstable mob which we placated with safe spaces and trigger warnings .
Their tantrums matured into cancel culture – dousing history with petrol to rid it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ online rhetoric , even if it looks like trolling from a fringe group of radicalised students .
What you are seeing is the equivalent of nineteenth century Marxist publications enticing emotionally lost kids .
It is normal to struggle , but modern education has shielded them from failure .
Having never learned to navigate disappointment , they are consumed by fear .
This drives them into the arms of predatory political groups who latch on with the same ruthless efficiency as religious terror .
This did not happen overnight .
Our children were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into the entertainment industry .
The seeds of identity politics are scattered across a broad spectrum of subjects and so long as one takes root , that child can be lured into the fold as an adult .
This undercurrent of social media , which most adults do not partake in , is practice for group-think .
If you do not like a TV character that embodies one of the modern left ’ s virtues , that is not a valid difference of opinion , it is a crime worthy of being hunted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to conform or live in isolation , aided and abetted by the ethos of the platform .
There is no other way to describe this environment other than the mass glorification of victimhood for the mob , who in turn , victimise dissenters .
It is re-enforced by the education system and unnoticed by working parents .
I engaged with these online spaces when they were a thriving artistic soul .
To see them reduced to political fodder shows how easy it is to poison a system within a single generation and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an authority figure to protect them from opinion .
When kids leave the arms of social media and enter university , these political movements ingratiate themselves by assuring the vulnerable that their present state is not their fault .
Their lack of achievement is the neglect of their parents , the bias of the system , racism against their skin colour , bigotry toward their gender , scorn in their sexual preference , and the collective actions of the long dead .
They are stuck waiting tables because that is the only life @ @ @ @ @ @ @ useless Arts degree over a trade .
A fictional prison is created .
The activist movement promises to save them from this depraved and unsatisfying future – to absolve them of any moral responsibility so long as they advertise their allegiance to the brand .
Wear the badges , hashtags , slogans , and colours .
A righteous purpose is one of the most dangerous ideas you can embed in a young mind .
What emerges is the most privileged generation in human history , brainwashed into thinking that they are the proletariat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ oppression .
( Remind me to invent a new word for entitled brats .
Soyvegarians ? )
I understand that it is difficult to take iPhone-wielding , Nike-clad looters seriously about their systemic subjugation by ‘ Hitler ’ , but what you have to understand is that indoctrination has made it real to them .
They believe that they have a moratorium on truth and morality .
It is a breed of idealism particular to authoritarians that elevates class status above individual rights .
That is how progressives end up arguing in favour @ @ @ @ @ @ @ treated as a person on your own merits is now an expression of selfishness .
The demands of the group override the person .
This is a problem for intersectionality , where individuals belong to separate groups with competing interests .
To avoid infighting breaking apart the thesis of identity politics , there have been attempts to unify these groups under the collective causes of Antifa , Black Lives Matter and ExtinctionRebellion – all of which present an existential threat and divert blame to the system of Capitalism .
Finally , we see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the shadows and now our children wave the red flag and wear the faces of murdering dictators .
With streets set alight , city blocks taken hostage , and public property vandalised , society has started taking notice .
There is a temptation to imagine this as merely a protest against an act of police brutality or an expression of genuine problems inside society .
That view would be naive .
The members of these protests can not rationalise their position beyond the superficial .
They deny facts that invalidate their claims @ @ @ @ @ @ @ core message of their movement .
Society is so far behind on what has really happened to these children that when they attempt to have a rational conversation , they discover victims of revisionist history .
You can not explain that they have been tricked into cosplaying a European revolution to win an election if they have been taught that Capitalism is a Fascist regime .
Ignorance leaves them as the plaything of unread philosophies .
How many know that their movement began in Hegel ’ s ramblings used to furnish the absolute @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that their Molotov cocktails were lit beneath Engels ’ glare ?
Quite simply , this generation has been taught about politics by the very people who want to tear down the system and seize power .
The youth are used to attack the working class , destroy private business , and empower the state .
Meanwhile , they remain blind to irony that the social media platforms who raised them are the all-powerful oligarchs of their nightmares , in bed with political parties .
These tech giants have assumed the position of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ service that erases people , ideas and crimes with impunity .
Instead of teaching kids to be critical thinkers , they have become subservient wards of the state .
Their dictionaries are full of broken words to the point we have almost lost the ability to communicate with them beyond unproductive shouting while they jump at shadows and make war with ghosts .
Marxism has equipped them with suspicion , division , and delusions of self-loathing where they truly believe that they are squatters in their own nation .
All this perpetrated by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has been a jewel jealously coveted by revolutionaries since the fall of their bloodthirsty empires .
I wish that we could tell our kids that if you destroy a political system , you also destroy its protections .
Violence becomes the only mechanism of reform and threat replaces intellectual merit .
Profound and profane become interchangeable , and soon the whole nation looks like CHAZ , run by hypocrites and thugs .
By dismantling the identity of a culture , the security of its unspoken legitimacy is threatened .
Fair political representation is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the impulsive tide of democracy – a breakwall that smashes waves into a safe harbour where ideas can be floated instead of sunk .
That is not what this generation desires .
They are impatient for the intoxication of absolute moral rule while the sophistry of Silicon Valley acts as the fact-checker of truth .
This is what our children are saying .
Listen carefully .
By the time you leave this autonomous zone ( CHAZ ) I want to you to give $ 10 to one African American person from this autonomous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s difficult if , you find it hard to give $ 10 to people of colour , to black people especially , you have to think really critically in the future are you going to actually give up power and land and capital if you have a hard time giving up $ 10 ?
You got ta think about , are you really down with this struggle ?
Are you really down with the movement ?
Because if that is a challenge for you , I ’ m unsure if you ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ find an African American person – the white people – I see you – I see every single one of you and I remember your faces .
You find that African American person and you give them $ 10 .
Cash out .

The generation biting at our ankles have always been destructive. They were insufferable as children, plaguing social media as an emotionally unstable mob which we placated with safe spaces and trigger warnings. Their tantrums matured into cancel culture – dousing history with petrol to rid it of opposing thought.
Do not ignore online rhetoric, even if it looks like trolling from a fringe group of radicalised students. What you are seeing is the equivalent of nineteenth century Marxist publications enticing emotionally lost kids. It is normal to struggle, but modern education has shielded them from failure. Having never learned to navigate disappointment, they are consumed by fear. This drives them into the arms of predatory political groups who latch on with the same ruthless efficiency as religious terror.
This did not happen overnight. Our children were groomed by movements who forced their ideas into the entertainment industry. The seeds of identity politics are scattered across a broad spectrum of subjects and so long as one takes root, that child can be lured into the fold as an adult. This undercurrent of social media, which most adults do not partake in, is practice for group-think.

It is re-enforced by the education system and unnoticed by working parents. I engaged with these online spaces when they were a thriving artistic soul.

That is how progressives end up arguing in favour of racial segregation. Wanting to be treated as a person on your own merits is now an expression of selfishness.

To avoid infighting breaking apart the thesis of identity politics, there have been attempts to unify these groups under the collective causes of Antifa, Black Lives Matter and ExtinctionRebellion – all of which present an existential threat and divert blame to the system of Capitalism.

thelibertydaily--2020-10-30--Tens of Thousands Flee Paris Ahead of Month-Long Lockdown That BANS Travel

• Thousands of Parisians caused massive traffic jams as they tried to flee the French capital for the country • Huge numbers of locals attempted a mass exodus in a bid to avoid the start of the second national lockdown • Many were enjoying their final night of freedom in France ahead of new lockdown restrictions from Friday • Draconian measures will see people needing documents to show their reasonable excuse for leaving home • Europe has seen rising infections , with France recording 47,637 new infections in 24 hours and 235 deaths Tens of thousands of Parisians last night @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attempt to flee the French capital ahead of the start of Emmanuel Macron 's new national shutdown .
Video posted to Twitter shows huge numbers of Parisians attempting a mass exodus out of the city in a bid to avoid the 9pm curfew and the start of the second lockdown from midnight .
The night air was filled with the sound of blaring car horns while social media users estimated that Parisians had created 'hundreds of miles ' of gridlock to escape to their second homes in the country .
Revellers also seized @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with friends and family last night before bars and restaurants are closed as the French government plunges the country back into lockdown .
Meanwhile French people emptied supermarkets in a repeat of the panic-buying that swept Europe in March as Parisians and other city dwellers prepared for a month in confinement .
Shoppers stocked up on pasta and toilet roll while people queued outside hairdressers for a final trim .
Office workers in the capital 's business district hauled their equipment to cars and trains in preparation for WFH .
Emmanuel Macron 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ until at least December 1 , with people required to carry documents justifying their reason for leaving home that will be subject to police checks .
France 's health minister yesterday warned that up to a million people may be infected with the disease , while Prime Minister Jean Castex extended mask requirements to schoolchildren as young as six .
French schools will stay open but the stay-at-home measures for adults are as strict as in the spring , with written paperwork needed to go outside for shopping , medical care or one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Macron said a curfew in Paris and other major cities had failed to stem the tide of infections , claiming that 400,000 people would die of Covid-19 if drastic action were not taken .
In a televised announcement , he said : 'Our target is simple : sharply reducing infections from 40,000 a day to 5,000 and slowing the pace of admissions to hospital and intensive care . '
Hospitals are already scrambling for intensive care beds and 'no matter what we do , nearly 9,000 people will be in intensive care by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ French leader called the new restrictions 'heartbreaking ' but said he 'could never stand by and see hundreds of thousands of our citizens die ' .
Bars , shops and restaurants are closing entirely again while France 's government is urging businesses to have employees work from home 'five days a week ' .
Mr Macron said some shops could be allowed to open in mid-November if the situation improves - but his scientific adviser 's warning raises the prospect of lockdown measures continuing up to Christmas .
State-approved reasons for leaving households @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attention or taking a daily one-hour allocation of exercise , the French government announced .
Though bars and restaurants will close again , all public services , schools and essential workplaces will stay open .
Stores and businesses across France were also filled by people racing to get supplies on Thursday - and maybe a last-minute haircut - ahead of the new lockdown .
Yesterday the French government recorded 47,637 new confirmed coronavirus cases over the past 24 hours , compared to 36,437 on Wednesday and a record high of 52,010 on Sunday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to over 1.28 million while the death tally went up by 235 to 36,020 .
The number of people going into hospital with Covid-19 fell to 976 , after three days of about 1,200 hospitalisations per day .
Is Spanish strain of Covid-19 behind Europe 's second wave ?
Scientists blame strain that was 'spread across continent by summer holidaymakers ' A mutated strain of coronavirus that originated in Spain may be the culprit behind Europe 's catastrophic second wave , a study has claimed .
An international team of scientists tracking the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said the variant , called 20A.EU1 , is behind 90 per cent of cases in the UK since summer .
Every virus mutation has its own genetic signature , which means they can be traced back to the place they originated .
The experts tracked 20A.EU1 back to a farm in northern Spain in June and believe it raced through the continent as holidaymakers returned over summer , when there was a lull in transmission and lockdowns were eased .
It raises questions about whether the spiralling second wave - which is forcing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shutdowns - could have been averted by improved screening at airports and borders .
The scientists believe the strain is also behind 80 per cent of infections in Spain , 60 per cent in Ireland and up to 40 per cent in Switzerland and France .
All viruses naturally mutate as they spread through populations .
There are hundreds of different variants of SARS-CoV-2 , the virus that causes Covid-19 , circulating around Europe .
However , only very few of these variants have spread as successfully and become as prevalent as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people in hospital with Covid-19 , compared to a high of more than 32,000 mid April .
The number of people in intensive care went up by 111 to 3,156 .
Essentials like pasta and toilet paper were in high demand , as were printer ink and electronics for working from home , while yoga mats were not to be found at many sporting goods stores . '
I 'm stocking up , since we do n't know when this will end , ' said Catherine Debeaupuis , shopping at an electronics retailer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ million people watched President Macron announce the grim news in a prime-time address on Wednesday - a mere five days after having said : 'it 's still too early ' to consider new lockdowns .
The president said hospitals would soon be overwhelmed by a virus that is spreading 'at a speed that even the most pessimistic did not predict . '
People will be allowed to leave home only if armed with a self-signed certificate stating their urgent business - food shopping , taking the kids to school , going to work @ @ @ @ @ @ @ home , going to the hospital or a pharmacy .
A certificate would also be needed by people wishing to go for a jog or walk their dog , within a limit of one hour and no further than one kilometre ( 0.6 miles ) from home .
Funeral attendance will be limited to 30 and six for weddings .
Those found breaking the rules , which will be policed , risk a fine of 135 euros .
Europe 's infection rate has already overtaken America 's for the first time since March @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the US just days from the presidential election .
Germany also took action as Angela Merkel announced a so-called 'lockdown light ' , shutting bars and restaurants to fend off a 'national health emergency ' while saying that schools and shops could stay open .
The return of lockdown measures across Europe has led to protests breaking out in Spain and Italy where crowds have let off fireworks and looted luxury stores to voice their rage at the tightening controls on public life .
Spain 's parliament voted to extend the country 's @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with European health ministers , WHO 's European regional director Dr Hans Kluge said 'hospitalizations have risen to levels unseen since the spring ' and deaths have sharply risen by more than 30 per cent .
He noted that Europe has now reported more than 10 million coronavirus cases and 'is at the epicenter of this pandemic once again . '
Cyprus and Lithuania are put on UK quarantine list with Britons facing dash back home to beat 4am deadline on Sunday to avoid 14-day isolation Cyprus and Lithuania have been removed from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ corridors , meaning travellers arriving in the UK from those places after 4am on Sunday must self-isolate for 14 days , Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said on Thursday .
Shapps added in a post on Twitter that the Government would not be adding any countries to the UK 's list of travel corridors where Britons can travel without having to self-isolate this week .
Cyprus recorded just 91 new coronavirus cases on Tuesday while Lithuania had 413 .
Both totals are considerably lower than the UK figures , which showed 22,885 new cases @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confusion , tweeting from Cyprus that they felt perfectly safe there , others were enraged by today 's announcement and questioned the logic of closing the travel corridor on the last day of the English half-term holiday , likely forcing many families to keep their kids at home for two weeks .
One Twitter user described taking Cyprus off the list as 'madness ' , sharing a photo taken on Wednesday night of a quiet-looking coastal view .
'It felt safe , organised and everyone was following the rules , ' he said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' in Cyprus , adding that people were tested on arrival as well as having to receive a negative test result before boarding a plane to leave .
'Mask wearing in hotels is compulsory and even outside , ' he said .
'At the risk of sounding alarmist , I must express our very real concern , ' Kluge said .
Speaking to Germany 's parliament ahead of a virtual summit of EU leaders on Thursday evening aimed at better coordinating Europe 's response to the disease , Merkel said her country faces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the cold season . '
Germany 's disease control agency said local authorities reported 16,774 new positive tests for COVID-19 in the past day , pushing the country 's total close to the half million-mark .
The death toll stood at 10,272 .
'The winter will be difficult , four long , difficult months .
But it will end , ' Merkel told lawmakers .
Under new restrictions going into effect Monday , German restaurants , bars , sports and cultural venues will be shut for four weeks .
Gatherings are limited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two households and all non-essential journeys will be discouraged .
Schools , kindergartens , stores and places of worship will remain open - albeit with safety precautions .
Merkel said authorities had no choice but to drastically reduce social contacts as three-quarters of infections in Germany now are no longer traceable .
'If we wait until the ICUs are full , then it will be too late , ' she said .
Opposition leader Alexander Gauland of the far-Right Alternative for Germany party accused Merkel 's government of 'wartime propaganda ' and likened @ @ @ @ @ @ @ society accepts a certain number of car deaths each year but does n't ban driving .
Berlin announced a new 10 billion-euro ( £9billion ) fund for businesses affected by the additional measures .
In Spain , authorities have been imposing incremental restrictions on free movement , nightlife and social gatherings , but they have refrained from a strict stay-at-home order like the one that curbed the first wave of infections but scarred the economy .
But with officials predicting that current levels of infection will produce a serious shortage of intensive care @ @ @ @ @ @ @ already calling for a full lockdown .
Spanish regions like Catalonia and La Rioja have already closed bars and restaurants , while most of the rest have imposed curfews limiting nightlife .
But extra subsidies have not accompanied the restrictions , prompting loud protests in Barcelona this week by business owners who banged pots , waved cocktail shakers and chanted 'We want to work ! '
Spain 's parliament , meanwhile , voted by a majority to keep the country 's newly declared state of emergency in place until May to try to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ objections by some opposition parties .
A vote to lift the measure could be held in March should things improve .
Spain has officially recorded more than 1.1 million COVID-19 cases , although authorities say the true figure could be at least three times higher .
Its virus death toll is at least 35,000 .
As EU leaders met , officials in Brussels urged them to approve rapid virus tests , which are less reliable than standard kits but far quicker to provide results , and to prepare the vast amounts of cold @ @ @ @ @ @ @ large stocks of any virus vaccine once it becomes available .
With Belgium , France and Spain warning that their intensive care units could be overwhelmed within two weeks , the officials say it 's vital that EU countries agree to share information about ICU capacity so patients can be treated across borders if necessary .
Russia , meanwhile , said that it has no plans to impose a nationwide lockdown .
'Despite a difficult epidemiological situation , right now we 're much better prepared for working during an epidemic , ' Russian @ @ @ @ @ @ @ recorded more than 1.5 million confirmed coronavirus cases , the highest number in Europe and the fourth largest tally worldwide .

This map shows the 14-day Covid-19 infection rate in Europe. Most of France is in the highest category of 240 or more cases per 100,000 people, along with most of Spain, all of the Czech Republic, the North of England and many other regions around the continent. French leader Emmanuel Macron this week announced a new nationwide lockdown, claiming that 400,000 people will die of coronavirus if the country does nothing to control a second wave that will be 'more deadly' than the first
France's health minister yesterday warned that up to a million people may be infected with the disease, while Prime Minister Jean Castex extended mask requirements to schoolchildren as young as six.
French schools will stay open but the stay-at-home measures for adults are as strict as in the spring, with written paperwork needed to go outside for shopping, medical care or one hour a day of exercise.
President Macron said a curfew in Paris and other major cities had failed to stem the tide of infections, claiming that 400,000 people would die of Covid-19 if drastic action were not taken.

In a televised announcement, he said: 'Our target is simple: sharply reducing infections from 40,000 a day to 5,000 and slowing the pace of admissions to hospital and intensive care.'
Hospitals are already scrambling for intensive care beds and 'no matter what we do, nearly 9,000 people will be in intensive care by mid-November,' he said. The French leader called the new restrictions 'heartbreaking' but said he 'could never stand by and see hundreds of thousands of our citizens die'.
Bars, shops and restaurants are closing entirely again while France's government is urging businesses to have employees work from home 'five days a week'.
Mr Macron said some shops could be allowed to open in mid-November if the situation improves - but his scientific adviser's warning raises the prospect of lockdown measures continuing up to Christmas.
State-approved reasons for leaving households include buying essential goods, seeking medical attention or taking a daily one-hour allocation of exercise, the French government announced. Though bars and restaurants will close again, all public services, schools and essential workplaces will stay open.
Stores and businesses across France were also filled by people racing to get supplies on Thursday - and maybe a last-minute haircut - ahead of the new lockdown.
Yesterday the French government recorded 47,637 new confirmed coronavirus cases over the past 24 hours, compared to 36,437 on Wednesday and a record high of 52,010 on Sunday.
The total number of infections rose to over 1.28 million while the death tally went up by 235 to 36,020. The number of people going into hospital with Covid-19 fell to 976, after three days of about 1,200 hospitalisations per day.

Is Spanish strain of Covid-19 behind Europe's second wave? Scientists blame strain that was 'spread across continent by summer holidaymakers' A mutated strain of coronavirus that originated in Spain may be the culprit behind Europe's catastrophic second wave, a study has claimed. An international team of scientists tracking the virus as it spreads and evolves, said the variant, called 20A.EU1, is behind 90 per cent of cases in the UK since summer. Every virus mutation has its own genetic signature, which means they can be traced back to the place they originated. The experts tracked 20A.EU1 back to a farm in northern Spain in June and believe it raced through the continent as holidaymakers returned over summer, when there was a lull in transmission and lockdowns were eased. It raises questions about whether the spiralling second wave - which is forcing European nations to retreat back into national shutdowns - could have been averted by improved screening at airports and borders. The scientists believe the strain is also behind 80 per cent of infections in Spain, 60 per cent in Ireland and up to 40 per cent in Switzerland and France. All viruses naturally mutate as they spread through populations. There are hundreds of different variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, circulating around Europe. However, only very few of these variants have spread as successfully and become as prevalent as the newly-identified strain. ADVERTISEMENT
There are now 21,183 people in hospital with Covid-19, compared to a high of more than 32,000 mid April. The number of people in intensive care went up by 111 to 3,156.
Essentials like pasta and toilet paper were in high demand, as were printer ink and electronics for working from home, while yoga mats were not to be found at many sporting goods stores.

'I'm stocking up, since we don't know when this will end,' said Catherine Debeaupuis, shopping at an electronics retailer in central Paris.
Just under 33 million people watched President Macron announce the grim news in a prime-time address on Wednesday - a mere five days after having said: 'it's still too early' to consider new lockdowns.
The president said hospitals would soon be overwhelmed by a virus that is spreading 'at a speed that even the most pessimistic did not predict.'
People will be allowed to leave home only if armed with a self-signed certificate stating their urgent business - food shopping, taking the kids to school, going to work if this cannot be done from home, going to the hospital or a pharmacy.
A certificate would also be needed by people wishing to go for a jog or walk their dog, within a limit of one hour and no further than one kilometre (0.6 miles) from home.
Funeral attendance will be limited to 30 and six for weddings. Those found breaking the rules, which will be policed, risk a fine of 135 euros.
Europe's infection rate has already overtaken America's for the first time since March, although cases are rising again in the US just days from the presidential election.
Germany also took action as Angela Merkel announced a so-called 'lockdown light', shutting bars and restaurants to fend off a 'national health emergency' while saying that schools and shops could stay open.
The return of lockdown measures across Europe has led to protests breaking out in Spain and Italy where crowds have let off fireworks and looted luxury stores to voice their rage at the tightening controls on public life.

Spain's parliament voted to extend the country's state of emergency.
During a meeting with European health ministers, WHO's European regional director Dr Hans Kluge said 'hospitalizations have risen to levels unseen since the spring' and deaths have sharply risen by more than 30 per cent.
He noted that Europe has now reported more than 10 million coronavirus cases and 'is at the epicenter of this pandemic once again.'
Coroanvirus cases are rising rapidly in most major European countries, prompting leaders to consider more lockdown measures. Curfews are now in place in Spain, Italy, and UK, with France and Germany announcing circuit breaker shutdowns
Cyprus and Lithuania are put on UK quarantine list with Britons facing dash back home to beat 4am deadline on Sunday to avoid 14-day isolation Cyprus and Lithuania have been removed from the Government’s list of travel corridors, meaning travellers arriving in the UK from those places after 4am on Sunday must self-isolate for 14 days, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said on Thursday. Shapps added in a post on Twitter that the Government would not be adding any countries to the UK's list of travel corridors where Britons can travel without having to self-isolate this week. Cyprus recorded just 91 new coronavirus cases on Tuesday while Lithuania had 413. Both totals are considerably lower than the UK figures, which showed 22,885 new cases on Tuesday. While some Brits expressed confusion, tweeting from Cyprus that they felt perfectly safe there, others were enraged by today's announcement and questioned the logic of closing the travel corridor on the last day of the English half-term holiday, likely forcing many families to keep their kids at home for two weeks. One Twitter user described taking Cyprus off the list as 'madness', sharing a photo taken on Wednesday night of a quiet-looking coastal view. 'It felt safe, organised and everyone was following the rules,' he said. Another said there was 'no risk' in Cyprus, adding that people were tested on arrival as well as having to receive a negative test result before boarding a plane to leave. 'Mask wearing in hotels is compulsory and even outside,' he said. ADVERTISEMENT
'At the risk of sounding alarmist, I must express our very real concern,' Kluge said.

Speaking to Germany's parliament ahead of a virtual summit of EU leaders on Thursday evening aimed at better coordinating Europe's response to the disease, Merkel said her country faces 'a dramatic situation at the beginning of the cold season.'
Germany's disease control agency said local authorities reported 16,774 new positive tests for COVID-19 in the past day, pushing the country's total close to the half million-mark. The death toll stood at 10,272.
'The winter will be difficult, four long, difficult months. But it will end,' Merkel told lawmakers.
Under new restrictions going into effect Monday, German restaurants, bars, sports and cultural venues will be shut for four weeks. Gatherings are limited to 10 people from a maximum of two households and all non-essential journeys will be discouraged. Schools, kindergartens, stores and places of worship will remain open - albeit with safety precautions.
Merkel said authorities had no choice but to drastically reduce social contacts as three-quarters of infections in Germany now are no longer traceable.
'If we wait until the ICUs are full, then it will be too late,' she said.
Opposition leader Alexander Gauland of the far-Right Alternative for Germany party accused Merkel's government of 'wartime propaganda' and likened the pandemic to traffic, arguing that society accepts a certain number of car deaths each year but doesn't ban driving.
Berlin announced a new 10 billion-euro (£9billion) fund for businesses affected by the additional measures.
In Spain, authorities have been imposing incremental restrictions on free movement, nightlife and social gatherings, but they have refrained from a strict stay-at-home order like the one that curbed the first wave of infections but scarred the economy.
ADVERTISEMENT
But with officials predicting that current levels of infection will produce a serious shortage of intensive care beds in November, some experts are already calling for a full lockdown.
Spanish regions like Catalonia and La Rioja have already closed bars and restaurants, while most of the rest have imposed curfews limiting nightlife. But extra subsidies have not accompanied the restrictions, prompting loud protests in Barcelona this week by business owners who banged pots, waved cocktail shakers and chanted 'We want to work!'
Spain's parliament, meanwhile, voted by a majority to keep the country's newly declared state of emergency in place until May to try to rein in the resurging pandemic, despite objections by some opposition parties. A vote to lift the measure could be held in March should things improve.
Spain has officially recorded more than 1.1 million COVID-19 cases, although authorities say the true figure could be at least three times higher. Its virus death toll is at least 35,000.
Germany also took action as Angela Merkel announced a so-called 'lockdown light', shutting bars and restaurants to fend off a 'national health emergency' while saying that schools and shops could stay open
As EU leaders met, officials in Brussels urged them to approve rapid virus tests, which are less reliable than standard kits but far quicker to provide results, and to prepare the vast amounts of cold storage that will be needed to keep large stocks of any virus vaccine once it becomes available.
With Belgium, France and Spain warning that their intensive care units could be overwhelmed within two weeks, the officials say it's vital that EU countries agree to share information about ICU capacity so patients can be treated across borders if necessary.
ADVERTISEMENT
Russia, meanwhile, said that it has no plans to impose a nationwide lockdown.
'Despite a difficult epidemiological situation, right now we're much better prepared for working during an epidemic,' Russian President Vladimir Putin said. Russia has recorded more than 1.5 million confirmed coronavirus cases, the highest number in Europe and the fourth largest tally worldwide.

Self-Appointed “Fact-Checking” Group NewsGuard, Gets Exposed After Trying To Smear Top Conservative Pages On Facebook Before Election

Most fact-checking organizations are bullies , who ignore the lies told by far-left publications like CNN , New York Times , Washington Post , The Atlantic , Buzzfeed , and others while focusing instead on labeling conservative news websites as fake or mostly fake news .
NewsGuard , a relative newcomer in the self-appointed arbiter of truth game , is certainly no exception .
Four days ago , Shayna Elliot of NewsGuard , sent an email to 1oo Percent Fed Up informing us that they were planning to write a report “ highlighting social media accounts with high follower counts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be voting or election-related misinformation to their large audiences.
” As an example of “ election-related misinformation , ” NewsGuard located ONE article from the 100percentfedup.com website that was posted on the 100 Percent Fed Up Facebook page that they used an example .
The article , titled : Critical Swing State of PA : 372,000 Mail-In Ballot Applications Rejected After Discovering 90 % Were DUPLICATES , was originally missing the word “ Applications.
” Once it was brought to our attention , it was immediately corrected .
NewsGuard ’ s Shayna @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on Wednesday : Your Facebook account ( 100 Percent Fed Up ) is included based on a post* reviewed by NewsGuard which claims “ 372,000 mail-in ballots rejected ” in “ critical swing state ” Pennsylvania , when in reality 372,000 ballot applications were rejected , a seemingly small but crucial distinction .
Voters who were denied a mail-in ballot are still able to vote in person .
TRENDING : WATCH : Joe Biden Announces He Will Lead an Effective Strategy to Mobilize 'Trunalimunumaprzure ' If you would like to include an on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know as soon as possible .
We intend to publish our report tomorrow morning , Wednesday , October 28 .
Hi Shayna .
My name is Patty McMurray .
I wrote the article you are referring to .
Unfortunately , when we wrote the article , ProPublica , the source we used that broke the story did not , from what I recall , mention “ applications , ” but instead , focused on mail-in-ballots .
We were given a fact check violation by Lead Stories .
We immediately corrected our title to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hours , the fact check violation was removed .
End of story .
If you want to talk about election-related misinformation , you might want to focus on CNN , MSNBC , NBC , ABC , CBS , New York Times , Washington Post , etc.
, who all reported a lie that President Trump was somehow working with the Russians to get elected , when in fact , it was the Democrats and Deep State who pushed a lie about the now disproven Steele Dossier , funded by Hillary Clinton ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ look into Hunter Biden ’ s emails and question why the mainstream media refuses to report on his father ’ s involvement in his dirty foreign deals .
But alas , your focus is on the big stuff , like mail-in-applications vs. mail-in-ballots .
NewsGuard is of no interest to me .
Feel free to write whatever you ’ d like .
I ’ ve actually been waiting for the moment your organization attempted to threaten me again so I could write about NewsGuard and the research I did on the last guy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I ’ ve taken over 100 screenshots of David Lepeska ’ s anti- Trump tweets , yet he was posing as a neutral “ fact-checker ” for your organization when he contacted us and asked us to give him information that we felt was none of his business .
Your so-called “ fact-check ” group behaves more like a mob with a shakedown mentality than a professional organization .
I will not be threatened by you or anyone at NewsGuard over the prospect of receiving negative press from you .
We are two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conservative news for over 7 years .
We have over 2.5 million followers who appreciate our hard work and dedication to the truth .
NewsGuard is irrelevant to us .
Please feel free to print my statement ( in bold ) .
Today , only 4 days before the general election , NewsGuard published their ridiculous smear article titled : NewsGuard ’ s article , a hit piece on 38 major conservative Facebook pages and only TWO small liberal Facebook pages , the Palmer Report , and “ Greg Palast ” ( each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Four of the 38 conservative pages called out by NewsGuard are owned by 100 Perecentfedup.com ( 100 Percent Fed Up , Rush Limbaugh Radio Fan page , Women For Trump and Fed Up Americans ) with a combined estimated 2.5 million likes .
Other legitimate conservative pages with massive reach include the wildly popular “ The Gateway Pundit , ” “ Glenn Beck , ” and “ The Federalist.
” Many of the names of the Facebook pages targeted by the self-appointed arbiter of truth , NewsGuard , had either “ Trump ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ While both of the liberal Facebook pages NewsGuard included in their report are , for the most part , insignificant players , curiously , Facebook ’ s top liberal page , Occupy Democrats , with over 10 million followers , is not included in their report .
Most of Occupy Democrat ’ s multiple fact-check violations on Politifact ’ s website are considered “ Half True , “ Mostly False ” or “ Pants on Fire.
” NewsGuard began their article by telling their readers they have given the “ conservative news site @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” adding that they are “ anonymously operated.
” In their first paragraph , they hilariously contradict themselves as they identify Patty McMurray as the “ co-owner of the site 100PercentFedUp.com and the author of the article.
” Although to their credit , they did include the part of the email where I referred to them as a “ shakedown organization , ” they neglected to include the part about how I couldn ’ t wait for NewsGuard to threaten me again , so I could expose David Lepeska , who originally contacted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 12 , 2018 .
“ I ’ ve actually been waiting for the moment your organization attempted to threaten me again so I could write about and the research I did on the last guy who threatened me from your organization ” Here ’ s the original email I received from the anti-Trump David Lepeska , who , according to him , was hired by NewsGuard , “ a new service that reviews news and information websites for credibility and transparency.
” David Lepeska , like many of the so-called “ fact-checkers ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ organizations to determine for the public what is and what isn ’ t true , are nothing more than leftist activists .
NewGuard ’ s David Lepeska , who was tasked with researching our conservative , pro-Trump website , is hardly a politically neutral journalist .
Mr. Lepeska really doesn ’ t like President Trump , and his tweets and retweets prove it .
In a June 1 tweet by Lepeska , he posted a tweet by Melania Trump and claimed our First Lady is somehow “ reaching out to us ” for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ compared to a tweet by QAnon , a group Twitter refers to as a dangerous “ conspiracy group ” and has banned from their platform .
But it ’ s okay with Twitter when “ journalists ” working for NewsGuard make incredible conspiracy claims about Melania Trump ?
In another tweet , Lepeska calls President Trump a “ moron ” in response to Trump hater Ian Bremmer ’ s tweet : Lepeska openly brags about a record number of college students applying at far-left journalism schools .
In his tweet , Lepeska claims @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” It seems that an employee of a so-called neutral “ fact-checking ” organization would celebrate a new crop of journalists who are “ gunning ” for our president .
Finally , in another screenshot of a tweet by Lepeska ( we have over 100 more ) , Lepeska posts a quote from a Breitbart article that states , “ Still Rising ” : Rasmussen Poll Shows Donald Trump Approval Ratings Now At 51 % .
The NewsGuard researcher warns Americans that they ’ re “ looking down the barrel of 8 years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ need to “ Step it up.
” Step it up ?
?
?
Is that part of Lepeska ’ s role at NewsGuard to step up the activist fact-checkers ’ efforts to discredit conservative news sites ?
Editorial Editor of NewsGuard Eric Effron isn ’ t exactly a neutral player in the game of politics either .
On Oct 10 , 2018 , Eric Effron tweeted a fake news story from The Atlantic about a mystery Russian server connected to the Trump campaign .
The story was completely debunked .
Near the end @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tweeted by the Editorial Editor of NewsGuard , the author , Franklin Foer , justifies pursuing his fantasy of catching Trump in a Russian scandal : “ How would I sleep the next week if Donald Trump were elected president , knowing that I had sat on a potentially important piece of information ?
In the end , Trump was elected president , and I still slept badly , ” Foer writes .
On Nov 3 , 2018 , only days before the election , Effron tweeted a link from an anti-Donald Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ America ’ s most dishonest forms of “ media.
” Effron copied and pasted their idiotic headline along with the link .
If there ’ s one thing we ’ ve learned over the past 9 years , social media is a powerful tool , it can be used to silence the opposition , and it can also be used to reveal the true identity of your opposition , including third-rate “ fact check ” organizations posing as legitimate arbiters of truth .

Most fact-checking organizations are bullies, who ignore the lies told by far-left publications like CNN, New York Times, Washington Post, The Atlantic, Buzzfeed, and others while focusing instead on labeling conservative news websites as fake or mostly fake news.
NewsGuard, a relative newcomer in the self-appointed arbiter of truth game, is certainly no exception.

TWITTER BACKS DOWN , LIFTS NY POST 'S SUSPENSION AFTER LENGTHY STANDOFF OVER HUNTER BIDEN REPORT So in the end , the real threat to America is n't too many nasty questions from reporters .
It 's the opposite of that .
The real threat is collusion .
When journalists strike secret alliances with the very people they 're supposed to be holding accountable , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unchallenged .
Democracy can not function .
And that 's what we 're watching right now .
Thursday , we learned that the FBI is conducting an active investigation into Joe Biden 's son for business deals that apparently included his father , the former vice president .
That is not speculation .
It is confirmed .
Former Biden business partner Tony Bobulinski sat for a five-hour interview with six FBI agents last week .
They asked him about his business dealings in China with the Biden family .
Now , we do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in indictments , but we know that it could .
That 's significant because Joe Biden , as you may have heard , is running for president .
The election is on Tuesday .
So by any possible measure , this is a blockbuster , stop-the-presses news story .
It 's not some naughty picture from somebody 's laptop .
This is a criminal investigation into business deals that we know for a fact Joe Biden was party , too .
So why have n't you heard more about this ?
If you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 've likely heard nothing at all .
Not a word .
Do you know why ?
Because the media are collaborating with the Democratic Party .
They 're collaborating with the intelligence agencies that spy on Americans with impunity .
They 're collaborating with the tech monopolies that have choked off the average person 's access to legitimate information .
TRUMP CAMPAIGN ACCUSES NBC NEWS OF 'RUNNING INTERFERENCE FOR BIDEN ' BY DEBUNKING IRRELEVANT DOCUMENTS We 're not overstating any of this .
We wish we were .
The people you 're supposed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a completely legitimate , verified news story .
These people would n't know `` Russian disinformation '' if it got into the shower with them .
They know nothing .
Russia did n't forge these emails on Hunter Biden 's laptop .
Vladimir Putin did n't invent the two separate meetings that Tony Bobulinski had with Joe Biden to discuss business in China , the business the FBI is now investigating in an active criminal investigation .
That 's all entirely real .
It happened .
It is happening now .
And the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they 're telling you it 's all fake , a concoction of a hostile foreign power .
So you have to ask yourself : At some point , why would they tell you what they know is not true ?
Because these people are not your allies .
They 're not trying to help you or inform you .
Just the opposite .
These people are your enemies .
They are misleading you so that you will obey , and maybe it 'll work .
Maybe they will get Joe Biden elected president @ @ @ @ @ @ @ questions or vetting him in any way .
That 's the gambit .
CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP But what then ?
Many of these people will then go to work for Biden officially .
We 'd expect that because without Donald Trump to hyperventilate over , the business models at many news outlets will collapse and these people will need jobs .
But Joe Biden and Kamala Harris ca n't hire everyone at NBC .
Some of these people have to continue to be `` journalists . ''
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that ?
Can they keep playing pretend live on your screen every night after everything we have just witnessed .

The election is on Tuesday. So by any possible measure, this is a blockbuster, stop-the-presses news story. It's not some naughty picture from somebody's laptop. This is a criminal investigation into business deals that we know for a fact Joe Biden was party, too.
So why haven't you heard more about this? If you don't watch Fox News, you've likely heard nothing at all. Not a word. Do you know why? Because the media are collaborating with the Democratic Party. They're collaborating with the intelligence agencies that spy on Americans with impunity. They're collaborating with the tech monopolies that have choked off the average person's access to legitimate information.
TRUMP CAMPAIGN ACCUSES NBC NEWS OF 'RUNNING INTERFERENCE FOR BIDEN' BY DEBUNKING IRRELEVANT DOCUMENTS
We're not overstating any of this. We wish we were. The people you're supposed to be able to trust are dismissing a completely legitimate, verified news story.
These people wouldn't know "Russian disinformation" if it got into the shower with them. They know nothing. Russia didn't forge these emails on Hunter Biden's laptop. Vladimir Putin didn't invent the two separate meetings that Tony Bobulinski had with Joe Biden to discuss business in China, the business the FBI is now investigating in an active criminal investigation. That's all entirely real. It happened. It is happening now. And the media know that it did. Yet they're telling you it's all fake, a concoction of a hostile foreign power.
So you have to ask yourself: At some point, why would they tell you what they know is not true? Because these people are not your allies. They're not trying to help you or inform you. Just the opposite.
These people are your enemies. They are misleading you so that you will obey, and maybe it'll work. Maybe they will get Joe Biden elected president next week without asking the most basic questions or vetting him in any way. That's the gambit.

But what then? Many of these people will then go to work for Biden officially. We'd expect that because without Donald Trump to hyperventilate over, the business models at many news outlets will collapse and these people will need jobs. But Joe Biden and Kamala Harris can't hire everyone at NBC. Some of these people have to continue to be "journalists."
The question is, can they really do that? Can they keep playing pretend live on your screen every night after everything we have just witnessed.

thelibertydaily--2020-10-30--Deplorable Moment: Beijing Biden Calls Minnesota Trump Supporters ‘Ugly Folks’

During a campaign rally in Minnesota on Friday , former Vice President and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden lost it on stage after his rally kept getting interrupted by Trump supporters .
Biden went as far as calling Trump supporters `` ugly folks . ''
`` These guys are not very polite but they 're like Trump , '' Biden said , adding “ Dr.Fauci called for a mask mandate last week .
This isn ’ t a political statement like those ugly folks over there beeping the horns .
This is a patriotic duty , for God ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first time that Biden lashed out at Trump supporters .
During a campaign event in Bucks County , Pennsylvania , Biden got trolled by Trump supporters .
The event was a total disaster for Biden considering there appeared to be more Trump supporters than Biden supporters .
CNN political correspondent MJ Lee was at the scene .
`` Rowdy scene as Joe Biden speaks at drive-in rally in Bucks County , PA — Trump supporters waving flags and honking during his speech , '' Lee tweeted .
She followed up with another tweet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ practically a Trump drive-in rally . ''
`` Practically a Trump drive-in rally here now outside the Biden drive-in event .
Biden has just finished speaking , '' she added .
Biden was clearly flustered at the noise the Trump supporters were making and had a hard time focusing on his speech considering he lashed out and called them `` chumps . ''
“ I ’ ll work as hard for those who don ’ t support me as those who do , ” Biden said .
He then went off script to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those chumps with the microphone out there.
” Joe Biden expects us to believe his message of unity when he calls Trump supporters chumps ?
Let ’ s not forget that back in May , Joe Biden slandered Trump supporters as racists and xenophobes .
“ There are people who support the president because they like the fact that he is engaged in the politics of division , ” Biden said .
“ They really support the notion that , you know , all Mexicans are rapists and all Muslims are bad and… @ @ @ @ @ @ @ race .
This is the one [ sic ] of the few presidents who succeeded by deliberately trying to divide the country , not unite the country.
” As for the Biden rally itself , it was another drive-in event and the campaign reportedly estimated that there were only 130 cars ( with a four-person maximum per car ) present , according to MSNBC reporter Eli Stokols .

thelibertydaily--2020-10-30--Beijing Biden’s Warning Of “Dark Winter” For Americans Gives ‘National Mask Mandate’ Teeth

Joe Biden is a career politician with nothing to show for his 47 years in office .
He was the Vice President during a terrible recession .
He authored the infamous 1994 crime bill .
He and Obama created crippling regulations that choked our economy and sent millions of jobs overseas .
We now know through Hunter Biden ‘ s laptop that the American jobs sent to China made Joe and his family rich .
To distract from the underground national coverage of the laptop – underground because even though the FBI and DNI have authenticated the information , almost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ call it false – Biden dives into Covid , Covid , Covid .
Biden and his campaign , along with the mainstream media , believe the only way to beat President Trump is to talk about the Covid cases and tell everyone that we need more lockdowns .
This is landing like a bag of rocks to everyday Americans who are feeling fatigued from the Covid lockdowns and mandates .
Americans don ’ t want mandates , but that didn ’ t stop Joe Biden from telling Americans that we need a “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virus .
Although this isn ’ t playing well with middle America , Joe Biden is finding that his Democrat “ Public Health Circles ” is giving it traction .
NY Times reported that “ Dr .
Fauci , the government ’ s top infectious disease specialist , and Dr. Scott Gottlieb , a former commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration under President Trump — have said it is time to seriously consider a national mandate to curb the spread of the virus.
” TRENDING : Twitter Just Suspended U.S. Border Protection @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wall Tweet The NY Times uses Putin as an example of a leader choosing to enact the national mask mandate liken to the one Joe Biden wants to put on the United States if he is elected .
Why did the New York Times think Americans would take a note from the Russian president ?
The New York Times and the rest of our nation ’ s media spent the last 5-years telling us that Russia wanted to use President Trump to ruin our country .
Why would Biden be aligning himself with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do with the $ 3.5 million wire transfer from the former Russian mayor ’ s wife ?
National mandates will be part of the life Americans will have with Joe Biden as President .
He seems comfortable taking his cues from anyone that will pay him money or give him power .
This means that all of the liberal and idiotic ideas from AOC and her squad of degenerates will become law .
National mandates on masks do very little to slow the spread .
Spain has been under a national mask mandate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the virus came to its shores , and they are seeing a spike in cases along with the rest of Europe .
This virus is highly contagious but has a very low death rate .
