lewrockwell--2020-04-30--Death: A Simple Idea With a Powerful Punch

Since death is one idea that has no history except as an idea and not a reality any of us have experienced , it is the most frightening idea there is and also quite simple .
It is the ultimate unknown .
It has always haunted human beings , whether consciously or unconsciously .
It lies at the root of war , violence , religion , art , love , and civilization .
The good and the bad , the beautiful and the ugly , why we like to win and not lose , pass and not fail , “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It is so funny and so sad .
We would be lost without it , even when we feel lost when thinking about it .
And it is fundamental for understanding the action and reaction to Covid-19 .
Societies have always been people banded together in the face of death .
And since people are not just physical beings but symbolic creatures who can think and imagine the past and the future , societies are necessarily mythic symbol systems whose job is not only to protect people physically , but symbolically as well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a protection racket with racketeers holding people hostage to fabricated fears that keep them locked in a living-death .
Thus death , this most potent imaginative idea and reality that doesn ’ t exist except as a mystery about which anything we say is speculation , can be used for good and evil , depending on who controls society .
Death is the great fear , the human haunting that hangs by a thread over life like the sword of Damocles .

Since death is one idea that has no history except as an idea and not a reality any of us have experienced, it is the most frightening idea there is and also quite simple. It is the ultimate unknown. It has always haunted human beings, whether consciously or unconsciously. It lies at the root of war, violence, religion, art, love, and civilization. The good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly, why we like to win and not lose, pass and not fail, “pass on” and not die. It is so funny and so sad. We would be lost without it, even when we feel lost when thinking about it. And it is fundamental for understanding the action and reaction to Covid-19.
Societies have always been people banded together in the face of death. And since people are not just physical beings but symbolic creatures who can think and imagine the past and the future, societies are necessarily mythic symbol systems whose job is not only to protect people physically, but symbolically as well. Sometimes, however, the protection is a protection racket with racketeers holding people hostage to fabricated fears that keep them locked in a living-death.
Thus death, this most potent imaginative idea and reality that doesn’t exist except as a mystery about which anything we say is speculation, can be used for good and evil, depending on who controls society.

Boucheron, Patrick Best Price: $6.19 Buy New $5.99 (as of 03:30 UTC - Details)
In 1944 in a newspaper column, George Orwell made an astute remark:
There is little doubt that the modern cult of power worship is bound up with the modern man’s feeling that life here and now is the only life there is. If death ends everything, it becomes much harder to believe that you can be in the right even if you are defeated…. I would say that the decay in the belief in personal immortality has been as important as the rise of machine civilization.
Beliefs, of course, like “personal immortality” and all others, such as the recent rise in the belief in atheism, which is as much a belief as belief in God, are, partially at least, relative to time and place, and develop out of social storytelling. The “hard facts” on which many feel their lives and security rest are themselves dependent upon the symbols which give them legitimacy. Reality is indeed precarious with society suspended by a web of myths and symbols. It is through cultural and social symbol systems that society’s meaning is transmitted to individuals, and it is within the symbol systems that the control and release of action resides. In today’s electronic mass media world, those who control the mass media that control the narrative flow – the storytelling – control the majority’s beliefs and actions.
Since society is held together by this myth system – the beliefs and values people live for and live by – that sustains it, societies have always had to offer symbolic “answers” to death. For without a meaningful symbolic for coming to terms with death, human action would be stymied and people would be reduced to what the psychiatrist Allan Wheelis termed “intense, preoccupying yearning.” Today we can hear such yearning everywhere.
Shortly after Orwell made his prescient comment in The Tribune, nuclear weapons were developed and used by the United States to kill hundreds of thousands of innocent Japanese civilians. With those weapons and their use, the ages-old symbolic narrative of life and death was transformed in a flash. “The significance of the possibility of nuclear death is that it radically affects the meaning of death, of immortality, of life itself,” wrote Hans Morgenthau. The traditional symbolic sources that once served to allow humans to transcend death were fundamentally undercut, and the search for new modes of death transcendence was carried on beneath the portentous covering of the nuclear umbrella. A qualitative transformation in the meaning of human existence was thus brought about as humans, who had the weapons, replaced the belief in God as the holder of the power over life and death, since nuclear war could result in the extinction of human life, leaving no one left to die.
This is our world today, and it is where the Covid-19 story takes place. A world not just of nuclear fear, but a host of other fears constantly inflamed by the mass media that hypnotize people through the conjuring of death-fear.
Beyond Good & Evil: Pr... Nietzsche, Friedrich Best Price: $1.99 Buy New $7.00 (as of 03:18 UTC - Details) In his great work on group psychology, Freud showed us how it was not just mental contagion and the herd instinct that got people to join in group behavior. People could be induced to become little children and obey their leaders because they have “an extreme passion for authority.” When leaders speak, the children hear the inner voices of their parents telling them to be careful, be very careful, the bogeyman is everywhere, so listen and obey. Freud, the Jewish atheist, and Dostoevsky, the Russian Orthodox Christian, were in agreement about people’s desire to give up their freedom to authority figures who would allegedly shelter them within their warm embrace.
The easiest way to do this is to convince people that death is stalking them, for the bogeyman is always death in one form or another.
It works to get people to support the terrifying sadism of wars against fabricated “others,” who are always portrayed as aliens who are out to kill the good people.
It works to get people to give up their freedoms out of fear of “terrorists,” who are said to slide and hide in the interstices of everyday life, ready to pounce and kill at any moment.
And it works to get people to obey orders to protect themselves from terrifying viruses that are lying in wait everywhere to strike them dead.
In his novel The Brothers Karamazov, Dostoevsky said that people want miracles, mystery, and authority, not freedom. His Grand Inquisitor, while a fictional creation, lives on in reality. For the Grand Inquisitor represents those power elites across the world who wish to cower people into accepting their dicta on Covid-19 as truth without questioning its logic or rationale. To question has become an act of insubordination deserving death by censorship or the defiling of one’s name via the term “conspiracy theorist,” a name used by the CIA to dismiss anyone questioning its murder of President Kennedy. Death comes in many forms, and the fear of it has always been used by the powerful to render the common people speechless and obedient.
How can any thinking person, anyone not totally crippled by fear, not question what is going on with the coronavirus disaster when reading what Peter Koenig, a thirty-year veteran economist of the World Bank and World Health Organization, writes in his article “The Farce and Diabolical Agenda of a ‘Universal Lockdown’”:

I ask the question but I am afraid I know the answer: miracle, mystery, and authority usually defeat evidence and simple logic. Fear of death and free thought scare children. The Grand Inquisitor lives on:
But man seeks to bow before that only which is recognized by the greater majority, if not by all his fellow-men, as having a right to be worshiped; whose rights are so unquestionable that men agree unanimously to bow down to it.

A World Without Christianity…

…is a world without the possibility of liberty .
Tom Holland has written a book : Dominion : How the Christian Revolution Remade the World .
At some point , I will read this book and write something about it ; I have heard enough from him in interviews that the book seems very worthwhile .
This post is based on one of these interviews , conducted by Glen Scrivener .
Glen Scrivener is an ordained minister and evangelist .
My following notes pick up at the 29-minute mark ; however , the entire interview is worth listening to .

and it ’ s so odd because it tends to be people who valorize science and Darwin and the theory of evolution… [ prior to Christianity ] there is nothing at all about the emergence of the qualities or the values or the teaching @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t recall if it was earlier in this interview , or in another interview with Holland , but Holland describes the Roman world into which Christianity was born .
Anyone not a male Roman citizen demanding any sort of rights would be sent to death .
Any male Roman citizen had the right to have sex with anyone of any age in any orifice of his choosing .
Things like this .
All of this was considered right , and good .
It was only in Christianity where the slaves were given @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , where women had the same rights in marriage and sex as men .
Certainly Christian-like values did not emerge from India .
It didn ’ t before Christ ; there is no reason at all that it would have been different after Christ .

But I think it is only true enough if one first accepts that man is made in God ’ s image and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us the means by which to understand proper virtues .
Prior to and outside of Christianity , societies didn ’ t thrive by practicing what we today consider proper ( i.e .

Societies thrived via violence and brute force .
Holland then describes his view of the fall from Christianity , which he says happened as a result of the two World Wars and people realizing the evils of the Holocaust .
I will only say , that the fall happened long before , and Nietzsche ’ s madman @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s “ Death of God , ” so I do not follow his thinking here at all .
He continues : TH : We no longer needed the devil , because we had Hitler .
We no longer needed hell because we had Auschwitz .
So , whenever people want to do what is right , what is good , they look at the Nazis and do the opposite of what the Nazis did .
The worst insult you can give anyone is that they are a racist or a Nazi .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ thinking sucked everyone in – universities , politicians , and churches .
Therefore , the church no longer determines what people think .
Whereas humanism is a kind of a Christian heresy , humanism has become so hegemonic that it has made the church kind of humanist .
This is why church attendance in the west is shrinking – who needs the church when all they do is regurgitate what is offered everywhere else ?

…is a world without the possibility of liberty.
Tom Holland has written a book: Dominion: How the Christian Revolution Remade the World. At some point, I will read this book and write something about it; I have heard enough from him in interviews that the book seems very worthwhile.
This post is based on one of these interviews, conducted by Glen Scrivener. Glen Scrivener is an ordained minister and evangelist. My following notes pick up at the 29-minute mark; however, the entire interview is worth listening to.
GS: There are many humanists who say Christianity played a part in Western liberal values, but even without Jesus Christ we would have got to where we are. Dominion: How the Chri... Holland, Tom Best Price: $18.64 Buy New $21.97 (as of 04:13 UTC - Details) TH: (chuckling) No. and it’s so odd because it tends to be people who valorize science and Darwin and the theory of evolution… [prior to Christianity] there is nothing at all about the emergence of the qualities or the values or the teaching of Christianity at all.
I don’t recall if it was earlier in this interview, or in another interview with Holland, but Holland describes the Roman world into which Christianity was born. Anyone not a male Roman citizen demanding any sort of rights would be sent to death. Any male Roman citizen had the right to have sex with anyone of any age in any orifice of his choosing. Things like this.
All of this was considered right, and good. It was only in Christianity where the slaves were given equal dignity in God’s eyes, where women had the same rights in marriage and sex as men.
GS: You cannot get these from other sources? TH: If you want a sense of what the world might have looked like without Christianity you can look at India, where you have very rich philosophical tradition, a very rich tradition of worshipping gods, you don’t have something that emerges and wipes that out.
Certainly Christian-like values did not emerge from India.
TH: I can absolutely imagine a world where Christianity doesn’t emerge, where what the Jewish Scriptures offers to Gentiles remains highly appealing, so there’s a kind of churn of conversion. But because the difficulty of becoming a Jew is such, it could never become universalist on the scale that Christianity does.
It didn’t before Christ; there is no reason at all that it would have been different after Christ.
GS: Could we, though, have generated some sort of human rights [absent Christianity]? TH: I don’t see why you would. Why would you? The idea that human rights kind of hangs in the ether waiting to be discovered is as theological as believing that the Lord Jesus Christ was raised from the dead and sits at the hand of God the Father. It requires a leap of faith.
It is interesting: we consider that natural rights “hang in the ether waiting to be discovered,” and this is true enough. But I think it is only true enough if one first accepts that man is made in God’s image and that God, in Jesus, gave us the means by which to understand proper virtues.
The Ethics of Liberty Rothbard, Murray N. Best Price: $9.63 Buy New $19.00 (as of 02:25 UTC - Details) TH: The difference is that Christians recognize the divinity of Christ requires belief, whereas lots of people just assume that human rights exist, but they do not. They are a result of various legal developments in medieval Christendom. It doesn’t just spontaneously emerge.
Prior to and outside of Christianity, societies didn’t thrive by practicing what we today consider proper (i.e. Christian) ethics. Societies thrived via violence and brute force.
TH: The idea that humanists propagate, that science “proves” [the value of liberal values] is grotesque. Science is a mirror in which you see reflected what you want to see. The Nazis used science to justify racial genocide, liberals use it to justify “let’s hug the world.” But both of them reflect the cultural prejudices of people who are looking in that mirror of science.
Holland then describes his view of the fall from Christianity, which he says happened as a result of the two World Wars and people realizing the evils of the Holocaust. I will only say, that the fall happened long before, and Nietzsche’s madman saw this. Holland even references Nietzsche’s “Death of God,” so I do not follow his thinking here at all. He continues:
TH: We no longer needed the devil, because we had Hitler. We no longer needed hell because we had Auschwitz. So, whenever people want to do what is right, what is good, they look at the Nazis and do the opposite of what the Nazis did. The worst insult you can give anyone is that they are a racist or a Nazi. This kind of [modern liberal] thinking sucked everyone in – universities, politicians, and churches. Therefore, the church no longer determines what people think. Whereas humanism is a kind of a Christian heresy, humanism has become so hegemonic that it has made the church kind of humanist.
This is why church attendance in the west is shrinking – who needs the church when all they do is regurgitate what is offered everywhere else?
GS: So, what would you like to see Christians preach? TH: I see no point in bishops, preachers or evangelists just recycling the kind of stuff that you can get (chuckling) from any kind of soft left-liberal, because everyone is doing that. If I want that, I will get it from a liberal-democratic counselor.
Holland then describes the incomprehensible truth of Christianity:
TH: If you are a Christian, you think that the entire fabric of the cosmos was ruptured by this strange singularity where someone who is God and man sets everything on its head. To say its supernatural is to downplay it. If you believe that, then it should be possible to dwell on all the other “weird” stuff that becomes part of the Christian package.
Really, no one else is offering this. It sounds like a pretty good product differentiation strategy.
TH: I don’t want to hear what bishops think about Brexit; I know what they think about Brexit and it’s not very interesting. If they’ve got views on original sin, I would be very interested to hear that. The Gulag Archipelago Solzhenitsyn, Aleksandr Best Price: $35.21 Buy New $37.26 (as of 04:13 UTC - Details) Original sin is a perfect example: if you are a woke liberal, you think “how awful, how terrible; Augustine was a terrible guy.” But watching the kind of shrillness of people convinced of their own virtue, howling down “sinners,” you realize that the concept of original sin keeps us all honest – we are all sinners.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn would write that the line separating good and evil passes right through every human heart. Every single one. Original sin; we are all depraved.
TH: Without original sin, you get a horrible hierarchy of virtue. You get exactly what atheists tend to criticize Christianity for. Christians always have a sense of their own sin; it keeps them honest.
And this is what we see around us today. The hierarchy of virtue is upside down. The greater the evil and the more depraved, the higher up the ladder it goes.
Conclusion
Removing Christianity from community life, as was accomplished in the Enlightenment, has led us to this place. I am reminded of Friedrich Nietzsche, from Twilight of the Idols:
When one gives up the Christian faith, one pulls the right to Christian morality out from under one’s feet… Christianity is a system, a whole view of things thought out together. By breaking one main concept out of it, the faith in God, one breaks the whole: nothing necessary remains in one’s hands.
Do you remember what Holland said about the ethics in pre-Christian Rome? There is nothing that keeps us from this.
Is liberty possible in such a world?

lewrockwell--2020-05-01--Considering Coronagate: Looking to the Constitution Will Only Guarantee More Tyranny

“ And yet we have what purports , or professes , or is claimed , to be a contract—the Constitution—made eighty years ago , by men who are now all dead , and who never had any power to bind us , but which ( it is claimed ) has nevertheless bound three generations of men , consisting of many millions , and which ( it is claimed ) will be binding upon all the millions that are to come ; but which nobody ever signed , sealed , delivered , witnessed , or acknowledged ; and which few persons @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are claimed to be bound by it , have ever read , or even seen , or ever will read or see.
” Spooner wrote this quote in the 19th century , and since then , six more generations have been bound by this bogus document , all without any consent .
It is not possible for men to consent without contract , and even so , as Spooner pointed out , it is also impossible for any to make a binding contract that allows any surrender to any other , whether individual @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Horrendous things due to government dictatorial coercion are going on today , and this is of vital importance , but I feel it necessary to once again remind people that they are individuals with inherent rights , and looking to government to understand or validate your rights guarantees that you will have none .
Some things irritate me more than others , but the screaming out that something the government does is unconstitutional is at the top of the list .
This is not only an empty statement , but is one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and that exposes someone with little or no understanding of what rights entail .
The Constitution is simply a government document drafted by politicians that were bent on creating a massively powerful central government with little restriction .
It has accomplished that mission many times over , and given the totalitarian nature of this government during this flu season , any that cling to such nonsense today deserve no sympathy for they have built their own prisons .
No Treason : The Comple ... Spooner , Lysander Buy New $ 5.99 Human rights @ @ @ @ @ @ @ defined , contracted , explained , or ruled on by any men claiming to be the arbiters of natural rights .
Sometimes I wonder just how ignorant and gullible the general population has become , and if critical thought has completely disappeared from view by all but the tiny minority .
How can so many believe that a piece of paper drafted by the political class long , long ago can give rights to citizens ?
All government is corrupt , all government is tyrannical , no government represents anything but itself , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , so why do so many buy into this idea that a piece of paper giving unlimited power to the most evil entity on earth , could have anything whatsoever to do with rights or freedom ?
The Constitution was written and made “ law of the land ” by politicians who gained greatly due to its passage .
It is supposedly upheld by Congress , another bunch of criminal politicians , it is sworn upon by all government enforcers , and interpreted and arbitrated by a Supreme Court appointed by federal politicians @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part of the federal government , and beholding to it .
They have the final word , and they are simply politicians in government .
In other words , the federal government drafted and owns the Constitution , and it has absolutely nothing to do with the natural rights of Americans , it is only a tool used by government to oppress those that have been fooled into believing that this piece of parchment is the basis for rights .
Nothing could be more asinine than this backward thinking .
As Americans cower @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are ordered to wear harmful masks , are not allowed to gather together , are not allowed to work or do business , are forced in many cases to be physically violated by “ healthcare ” goons , are not allowed to travel , are monitored by drones , harassed by pathetic criminal cops , spied upon at every level , or tattled on and “ shamed ’ by moronic and worthless citizens , do they feel good about the fact that they have a constitution ?
Do any actually think that they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Americans can regain the small amount of brain power necessary to understand basic rights , until they can understand that they have no obligation whatsoever to comply with government mandates , until they look around and see that they have become slaves , then this coronavirus fraud will continue to worsen until breaking away from this totalitarian abuse will be nearly impossible .
“ I think it necessary to discuss the real essence of freedom and liberty , and the source of our rights .
One would assume that this knowledge would be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ men , but sadly that seems not to be the case .
Our natural rights are inherent because we are endowed with these rights due to our own humanity .
All natural human rights predate men , and include the right to life , liberty and property , which encompass all our other rights .
Therefore , real freedom relies on the premise that so long as one does not harm or aggress against another or his property , and does not infringe on another ’ s natural rights , then he should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sees fit .
In order to be truly free , one has to have complete and total control of his life and property .
That means of course that none have a right to aggress against or control any other .
If freedom is evident , coercion and force are absent .

“And yet we have what purports, or professes, or is claimed, to be a contract—the Constitution—made eighty years ago, by men who are now all dead, and who never had any power to bind us, but which (it is claimed) has nevertheless bound three generations of men, consisting of many millions, and which (it is claimed) will be binding upon all the millions that are to come; but which nobody ever signed, sealed, delivered, witnessed, or acknowledged; and which few persons, compared with the whole number that are claimed to be bound by it, have ever read, or even seen, or ever will read or see.”
~ Lysander Spooner (1971). “The collected works of Lysander Spooner”
Spooner wrote this quote in the 19th century, and since then, six more generations have been bound by this bogus document, all without any consent. It is not possible for men to consent without contract, and even so, as Spooner pointed out, it is also impossible for any to make a binding contract that allows any surrender to any other, whether individual or government, of his natural rights. Horrendous things due to government dictatorial coercion are going on today, and this is of vital importance, but I feel it necessary to once again remind people that they are individuals with inherent rights, and looking to government to understand or validate your rights guarantees that you will have none.
Some things irritate me more than others, but the screaming out that something the government does is unconstitutional is at the top of the list. This is not only an empty statement, but is one that expresses a lack of intellect, and that exposes someone with little or no understanding of what rights entail. The Constitution is simply a government document drafted by politicians that were bent on creating a massively powerful central government with little restriction. It has accomplished that mission many times over, and given the totalitarian nature of this government during this flu season, any that cling to such nonsense today deserve no sympathy for they have built their own prisons.

Human rights are natural, and cannot be defined, contracted, explained, or ruled on by any men claiming to be the arbiters of natural rights. Sometimes I wonder just how ignorant and gullible the general population has become, and if critical thought has completely disappeared from view by all but the tiny minority. How can so many believe that a piece of paper drafted by the political class long, long ago can give rights to citizens? All government is corrupt, all government is tyrannical, no government represents anything but itself, and all government seeks power over others, so why do so many buy into this idea that a piece of paper giving unlimited power to the most evil entity on earth, could have anything whatsoever to do with rights or freedom?
The Constitution was written and made “law of the land” by politicians who gained greatly due to its passage. It is supposedly upheld by Congress, another bunch of criminal politicians, it is sworn upon by all government enforcers, and interpreted and arbitrated by a Supreme Court appointed by federal politicians for life. These corrupt judges are part of the federal government, and beholding to it. They have the final word, and they are simply politicians in government. In other words, the federal government drafted and owns the Constitution, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the natural rights of Americans, it is only a tool used by government to oppress those that have been fooled into believing that this piece of parchment is the basis for rights. Nothing could be more asinine than this backward thinking.
As Americans cower in their self-made prisons, as they are ordered to wear harmful masks, are not allowed to gather together, are not allowed to work or do business, are forced in many cases to be physically violated by “healthcare” goons, are not allowed to travel, are monitored by drones, harassed by pathetic criminal cops, spied upon at every level, or tattled on and “shamed’ by moronic and worthless citizens, do they feel good about the fact that they have a constitution? Do any actually think that they are protected by such fakery?
Until Americans can regain the small amount of brain power necessary to understand basic rights, until they can understand that they have no obligation whatsoever to comply with government mandates, until they look around and see that they have become slaves, then this coronavirus fraud will continue to worsen until breaking away from this totalitarian abuse will be nearly impossible.
As I wrote many years ago:
“I think it necessary to discuss the real essence of freedom and liberty, and the source of our rights. One would assume that this knowledge would be universal and embedded in the hearts of men, but sadly that seems not to be the case. Our natural rights are inherent because we are endowed with these rights due to our own humanity. All natural human rights predate men, and include the right to life, liberty and property, which encompass all our other rights. Therefore, real freedom relies on the premise that so long as one does not harm or aggress against another or his property, and does not infringe on another’s natural rights, then he should be left alone to do as he sees fit.
In order to be truly free, one has to have complete and total control of his life and property. That means of course that none have a right to aggress against or control any other. If freedom is evident, coercion and force are absent. That means that real freedom cannot exist if involuntary restrictions are imposed on the individual by any governing body.”
It is time to completely stop being obedient to the state. It is time to say no to all government mandates. It is time to open every business without any restriction. It is time to fight back to regain any semblance of freedom, and to spit in the face of government and it criminal enforcers.

Neil Ferguson, through his institute at London’s Imperial College, can call the shots on a major percentage of the global population.
He’s Mr. Genius, when it comes to projecting computer models of epidemics.
Fellow experts puff up his reputation.
According to the Business Insider (4/25), “Ferguson’s team warned Boris Johnson that the quest for ‘herd immunity’ [letting people live their lives out in the open in the UK] could cost 510,000 lives, prompting an abrupt U-turn [massive national lockdown in the UK]…His simulations have been influential in other countries as well, cited by authorities in the US, Germany, and France.”
Not only cited, not only influential, but swallowed whole.
Business Insider continues: “On March 23, the UK scrapped ‘herd immunity’ in favor of a suppression strategy, and the country made preparations for weeks of lockdown. Ferguson’s study was responsible.”
There’s more. A lot more.
Same BI article: “Dr Deborah Birx, coronavirus response coordinator to the Trump administration, told journalists at a March 16 press briefing that the Imperial paper [Ferguson’s computer projection] prompted the CDC’s new advice to work from home and avoid gatherings of 10 or more.”
Ferguson, instigator of LOCKDOWN. Stripping away of basic liberties. Economic devastation.
So let’s look at Ferguson’s track record, spelled out in the BI piece:
“Ferguson co-founded the MRC Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis, based at Imperial, in 2008. It is the leading body advising national governments on pathogen outbreaks.”
“It gets tens of millions of dollars in annual funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and works with the UK National Health Service, the US Centres for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC), and is tasked with supplying the World Health Organization with ‘rapid analysis of urgent infectious disease problems’.”
Getting the picture?
Gates money goes to Ferguson.
Gates demands vaccines and more vaccines.
Gates wants a COVID vaccine before all aspects of planetary lockdowns end. The lockdowns, of course, are already making a wreck of the Earth’s economies.
Recently, Gates sweetened the World Health Organization (WHO) pot by tossing in $350 million to “fight the coronavirus”—thus tightening his control over WHO. He has already pledged $10 billion over the next decade, to various organizations, for vaccine development and use on the world population.
Ferguson supplies a frightening computer projection of COVID deaths—to the CDC and WHO. Ferguson thus communicates a rationale for the Gates vaccine plan.
The CDC and WHO act, based on what Gates wants, as expressed by Ferguson.
National governments surrender to WHO and CDC. LOCKDOWNS.
THE STRUCTURE OF A GIGANTIC HIT.
Don’t stop now. Read on.
“Michael Thrusfield, a professor of veterinary epidemiology at Edinburgh University, told the paper he had ‘déjà vu’ after reading the [Ferguson] Imperial paper [on COVID], saying Ferguson was responsible for excessive animal culling during the 2001 Foot and Mouth outbreak.”
“Ferguson warned the government that 150,000 people could die. Six million animals were slaughtered as a precaution, costing the country billions in farming revenue. In the end, 200 people died.”
“Similarly, he [Ferguson] was accused of creating panic by overestimating the potential death toll during the 2005 Bird Flu outbreak. Ferguson estimated 200 million could die. The real number was in the low hundreds.” HELLO?
“In 2009, one of Ferguson’s models predicted 65,000 people could die from the Swine Flu outbreak in the UK — the final figure was below 500.”

And the answer is: This is a monumental covert op; some people are that stupid; some are caught up in the op and are afraid to say the emperor has no clothes; some are aware of what is going on, and they want to destroy national economies and lead us into, yes, a new world order.
In particular, never forget the World Health Organization is an action arm of the United Nations, which has issued blizzards of reports, position papers, and press releases advocating a borderless and technocratic planet, surveilled and operated more or less as a giant corporate entity—where every citizen, for his own good, for protection against future pandemics, will be fitted irretrievably into a controlled slot.
The grand total of slots will form a “sustainable civilization,” minus:
FREEDOM.
Freedom in all its expressions—movement, dissent, assembly, etc.—must be made extinct. Otherwise, viruses, on the loose, will infect and destroy us all. That’s the polished spear-point of official propaganda.

Days after the UK went on lockdown, Ferguson’s institute sheepishly revised downwards his death estimates, several times and dramatically. His dire warnings have not come to pass and the UK economy, like most others around the world, has gone into deep crisis based on inflated estimates.
Ferguson and his Imperial College modelers have a notorious track record for predicting dire consequences of diseases. In 2002 Ferguson predicted that up to 50,000 people in UK would die from variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, “mad cow disease”, possibly to 150,000 if the epidemic expanded to include sheep. A total of 178 people were officially registered dead from vCJD. In 2005, Ferguson claimed that up to 200 million (!) people worldwide would be killed by bird-flu or H5N1. By early 2006, the WHO had only linked 78 deaths to the virus. Then in 2009 Ferguson’s group at Imperial College advised the government that swine flu or H1N1 would probably kill 65,000 people in the UK. In the end, swine flu claimed the lives of 457 people. Ferguson and his Imperial College group have a notoriously bad track record for predicting disease consequences.

Ferguson was also the source of the wild “prediction” that 2.2 million Americans would likely die if immediate lockdown of the US economy did not occur.

Boris Johnson Tests Positive for Covid-19 as UK Lockdown Tightens
Notably, the Gates foundation began pouring millions into Ferguson’s modelling operation well after his catastrophic lack of accuracy was known, leading some to suggest Ferguson is another “science for hire” operation.
University of Washington—Gates too…
More recently, the forecast models being used to justify the unprecedented lockdown measures across the United States have been developed at the University of Washington Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) in Seattle.
Its COVID-19 model forecasts deaths and the use of hospital resources such as hospital beds, ICU beds and ventilators. At the end of March the model from IHME also “predicted” up to 2.2 million American coronavirus deaths unless drastic lockdown measures were followed. By April 7 IHME models revised that down to up to 200,000 deaths. Their last down revision puts deaths at just over 60,000. The claim is that the down revisions are informed by actual data. Yet the wildly inaccurate projections were the ones used to impose catastrophic social and economic restrictions across the USA.
Alex Berenson, a former New York Times reporter questioned the IMHE model:
“Aside from New York, nationally there’s been no health system crisis. In fact, to be truly correct, there has been a health system crisis, but the crisis is that the hospitals are empty,” he said. “This is true in Florida where the lockdown was late, this is true in southern California where the lockdown was early, it’s true in Oklahoma where there is no statewide lockdown. There doesn’t seem to be any correlation between the lockdown and whether or not the epidemic has spread wide and fast.”
Fauci: The Bernie Mado... Ortleb, Charles Buy New $5.99 (as of 02:55 UTC - Details) IHME claims its revisions are result of the lockdown taking effect even though that would take weeks to show up.
Like Neil Ferguson at the Imperial College London, the University of Washington’s IHME is another project of the Gates Foundation. It was created in 2007 with a major grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. In May 2015 IHME and the World Health Organization signed a major agreement to collaborate on data used to estimate world health trends. Then in 2017 IHME got an additional $279 million from the Gates Foundation to expand its work over the next decade. That, in addition to another a $210 million gift in 2016 from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to fund construction of a new building to house several UW units working in population health, including IHME. In other words, IHME has been a crucial piece of the Gates global health strategy for more than 13 years.
They have been turning out highly inflated models for state-by-state emergency room demands. Those inflated projections, from New York to California and beyond have wreaked havoc on the entire health care system. When one IHME model predicted need for 430,000 intensive care beds across the US in March, states went into panic mode from New York to California to Pennsylvania and beyond. By the third week of April the reality was that hospital beds were empty and untold numbers of other operations had been canceled to make room for covid19 patients who never materialized.
Faulty Tests
The wide variety of different tests that are supposed to tell whether one is infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus have added a crucial element to the perfect dystopian storm that is raging globally. Simply put, the tests are not that reliable.
A leading German laboratory reported in early April that, according to WHO recommendations, Covid19 virus tests are now considered positive, even if the specific target sequence of the Covid19 virus is negative and only the more general corona virus target sequence is positive. This can lead to other corona viruses such as cold viruses also triggering a false positive test result. That means you can have a simple cold and you are deemed coronavirus positive. Little wonder that the tally of coronavirus “infected” is exploding over the past weeks. But what does that number really mean? We simply don’t know. Yet our politicians are glibly shutting down entire economies and causing inconceivable social damage based on false model projections and WHO’s dodgy testing guidelines. Fire Your Doctor! How ...

In Germany the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the government agency leading the COVID19 response, has deliberately refused to list the actual daily number of persons tested despite requests. Prof. Christopher Kuhbander, author of a detailed study states,
“The reported figures on new infections very dramatically overestimate the true spread of the corona virus. The observed rapid increase in new infections is almost exclusively due to the fact that the number of tests has increased rapidly over time. So, at least according to the reported figures, there was in reality never an exponential spread of the coronavirus. The reported figures on new infections hide the fact that the number of new infections has been decreasing since about early or mid-March.”
Yet the uncritical media presentation of endless statistics from the head of the RKI have fostered unprecedented anxiety and fear in the population of Germany.
Californian physician Dr. Dan Erickson described his observations regarding Covid19 in a press briefing. He stated that hospitals and intensive care units in California and other states have remained largely empty so far. Dr. Erickson reports that doctors from several US states have been “pressured“ to issue death certificates mentioning Covid19, even though they themselves did not agree. In Pennsylvania the state was forced to remove some 200 “coronavirus” deaths after doctor autopsy revealed death from pre-existing causes such as heart or lung diseases.
The more that actual facts are emerging around this pandemic and its consequences, it is becoming clear were are being told to commit economic and social suicide based on wrong methods and wrong information.

Never Again!

There are several events in modern U.S. history that must never be allowed to happen again .
Never , as in EVER !
I ’ m talking about false flag events that warmongering politicians have used to authorize U.S. military aggression and unjust war around the world and gross miscarriages of justice in violent despotic assaults against American citizens inside the United States .
I ’ m talking about the fabricated Gulf of Tonkin incidents in 1964 that launched an illegal and indefensible war in Vietnam .
I ’ m talking about the premeditated and unprovoked attack on the USS @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1967 .
To Keep or Not to Keep ... Timothy and Chuck .
Bal ... Best Price : $ 8.50 Buy New $ 58.97 I ’ m talking about the total con job that was the 9/11 attacks , which precipitated two unconstitutional and immoral military invasions against two countries , Iraq and Afghanistan , that had absolutely nothing to do with those attacks—wars we are still waging in those countries almost twenty years later—and the phony perpetual “ war on terror ” that has caused millions of innocent deaths around the world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ precipice of financial ruin .
The events surrounding 9/11 also birthed a burgeoning Police State in this country with the introduction of the Stalinesque USA Patriot Act , the Military Commissions Act , the unconstitutional provisions of the National Defense Authorization Act that expunge both the Fourth Amendment and Habeas Corpus , etc .
I ’ m also talking about the government murders of nearly 100 American citizens by federal police agencies outside Waco , Texas , in 1993 .
The brutality and barbarism committed against the Branch Davidians rival that of any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And while we are on the subject , let ’ s not forget the federal police agents who murdered Vicki and Sam Weaver and seriously wounded their husband and father , Randy Weaver , and a friend near Ruby Ridge , Idaho , in 1992 .
Vicki had her brains blown out by FBI assassin Lon Horiuchi as she stood in her kitchen doorway holding her infant baby in her arms .
Her son , Sam , 14 , was shot in the back by another federal agent .
Oh , yes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s dog .
The American people must see to it that events such as these are never allowed to happen again .
Ever !
And now we must add to the ignoble list above the mass Naziesque lockdown of the American people and the shutdown of private businesses and churches in the wake of the greatest con job against our Constitution and Bill of Rights since 9/11 : the so-called coronavirus pandemic .
Plague : One Scientist & ... Mikovits , Judy Best Price : $ 29.55 Buy New $ 17.99 These @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never be allowed to happen again .
I have documented in this column the way the coronavirus is being hyped and exaggerated for the express purpose of fomenting fear and panic among the American citizenry , thereby enabling government lockdowns and shutdowns that the American people would never tolerate had they not been scared to death by power-mad politicians , mad scientists and the malevolent mainstream media .
I have documented the facts that prove that the CDC and medical establishment have exaggerated and extortionated deaths from corona to the point that those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ statistic they provide regarding corona deaths .
The 60,000 U.S. deaths from corona that they are claiming could in truth easily be half that number—or even less than half .
They have fabricated and exaggerated corona deaths to the point that we can not believe anything they have told us .
Absolutely nothing !
I am saying ( and , thankfully , I am not the only one saying it ) , the American people must never allow government lockdowns and shutdowns of their states and communities ever again .
If we allow @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be repeated again and again until we are living permanently under this dictatorial yoke .
As an aside , I suppose I must acknowledge the fact that not every State in the United States is a Free State .
Several states have already succumbed to the chains of tyranny as a matter of daily practice .
I see virtually no hope for freedom in states such as Hawaii , California , Oregon , Washington , Colorado , Illinois , Maryland , Massachusetts , New York , New Jersey and Connecticut .
To be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ several of those states that are bravely trying to hold the line for liberty .
God bless them .
If you live in those states , my only advice for you is to LEAVE , because lockdowns and shutdowns are guaranteed to be the “ new normal ” for those states .
The Fate of Rome : Clim ... Harper , Kyle Best Price : $ 18.78 Buy New $ 6.50 Neither do I see much hope for freedom in large metropolitan areas .
My advice to people living in dense urban areas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rest of us , if we do not draw our line in the sand for liberty RIGHT NOW , our liberties are gone .
And I mean FOREVER .
We must make the motto “ Never Again ” the motto by which we elect anyone to public office this November .
We should demand that every candidate for governor , attorney general , State legislator , State senator , sheriff , mayor , city councilman , county commissioner , etc.
, answers one question : Will you authorize , support or help enact @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shutdown of private businesses and churches ?
Yes or no !
And any candidate that takes longer than two seconds to shout a resounding “ NO !
” should not receive our vote .
Period .
Political parties do not matter .
Saying they are a conservative does not matter .
Saying they are a Christian does not matter .
If they will not take a principled stand on these unconstitutional lockdowns , shutdowns and stay-at-home orders , our freedoms are toast .
I repeat : They are TOAST .
I don ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plainer : If we do not draw our line in the sand for liberty right here and right now , our children and grandchildren will grow up in a land of tyranny .
That is not being an alarmist ; that is being a realist .
In addition to that , it is obligatory that we go on the offensive and begin filing lawsuits against these unconstitutional government directives .
Judge Andrew Napolitano rightly states , “ Governors stay-at-home orders are unconstitutional [ and ] won ’ t hold up in court.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said on Tuesday that stay-at-home orders from governors across the U.S. are unconstitutional because creating laws is a power delegated solely to legislatures .
Machiavelli : The Art o ... Boucheron , Patrick Best Price : $ 6.19 Buy New $ 5.99 “ The government has to recognize that the rights that are in the Constitution still exist in bad times as well as in good and it has to treat people equally , ” Napolitano told “ Fox & Friends.
” Napolitano pointed out that Michigan Gov .
Gretchen Whitmer and New @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stay-at-home orders are “ made-up laws.
” “ The only laws that we have to obey and the only laws for which we can be punished for not obeying are those enacted by the legislature , ” he added .
“ The bad news is that the police are not in a position to distinguish .
The good news is once these cases are tried when the pandemic is over , there isn ’ t a judge in the country who is going to recognize the power of the governor or a mayor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ top of his head , to make up a punishment off the top of his head requiring people to comply with it .
That ’ s not democracy in America and that ’ s not what the Constitution requires.
” Here in Montana , we need an attorney to challenge our governor ’ s unconstitutional stay-at-home order in court .
Our Montana constitution clearly states : Government lockdown and shutdown orders violate each of these constitutionally protected liberties—along with several others .
The Devil ’ s Ches ... Talbot , David Best Price @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nowhere does our State constitution give the power to the governor to deny these basic liberties via executive order to the citizens of this State .
A State code annotated that contravenes the State constitution is no law at all .
I imagine that your State has a similar constitution , and nowhere does your State constitution give your governor the power to deny these basic liberties to the people , either .
In all likelihood , this is the first time that such a statewide directive denying basic liberties has been enacted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ challenged in court .
We intend to put an end to that inaction .
I strongly suggest that people in every State in which a governor issued a statewide stay-at-home order also begin taking legal action—and SOON .
Judge Napolitano is right .
“ It won ’ t hold up in court.
” And my heartiest kudos go out to the seven governors that did NOT issue a stay-at-home order .
If things are not turned around in the rest of the states , these seven states could very well find themselves welcoming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The seven states that did NOT issue stay-at-home orders are South Dakota , North Dakota , Utah , Iowa , Arkansas , Wyoming and Nebraska ( albeit there may have been local and county directives shuttering businesses and restricting gatherings within those states—and the Mormon churches in Utah surrendered their First Amendment liberties as sheepishly as did the evangelical churches in the other states ) .
Fascists Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates are already saying that future lockdowns will be in order as the coronavirus will never go away .
In other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it that America is turned into a Fascist medical dictatorship , complete with forced vaccinations , microchipping and universal surveillance .
Furthermore , self-professing conservatives and patriots need to STOP aiding and abetting the international criminals Fauci and Gates by continuing to sensationalize and dramatize the coronavirus .

If you missed it , here is an excellent video from a 30-year veteran physician on how the CDC has instructed doctors to fudge corona death numbers upward on death certificates .
This video has been viewed over 2 million times on various platforms .
How good is it ?
It ’ s so good that Facebook is calling it “ false news.

Neither do I see much hope for freedom in large metropolitan areas. My advice to people living in dense urban areas is to GET OUT.
For the rest of us, if we do not draw our line in the sand for liberty RIGHT NOW, our liberties are gone. And I mean FOREVER.
We must make the motto “Never Again” the motto by which we elect anyone to public office this November. We should demand that every candidate for governor, attorney general, State legislator, State senator, sheriff, mayor, city councilman, county commissioner, etc., answers one question: Will you authorize, support or help enact ANY government lockdown, stay-at-home order or shutdown of private businesses and churches?

I don’t know how to say it any plainer: If we do not draw our line in the sand for liberty right here and right now, our children and grandchildren will grow up in a land of tyranny. That is not being an alarmist; that is being a realist.
In addition to that, it is obligatory that we go on the offensive and begin filing lawsuits against these unconstitutional government directives. Judge Andrew Napolitano rightly states, “Governors stay-at-home orders are unconstitutional [and] won’t hold up in court.”

That’s not democracy in America and that’s not what the Constitution requires.”
Here in Montana, we need an attorney to challenge our governor’s unconstitutional stay-at-home order in court. Our Montana constitution clearly states:
Article II – Declaration of Rights Section 5. Freedom of religion. The state shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Section 6.
