The Lockdown Turned Liberals into Nazis

Unpopular, that’s what I’ll be!

I don’t know why the pandemic lockdown turned so many of my liberal friends into Nazis, but it did. Of course, they don’t see themselves as Nazis, they just think they are doing their part to “flatten the curve” or whatever, and wish they could do more. They’re not interested in discussing the wisdom of any of the democracy-crushing measures instituted in the name of “Public Health.” If you disagree with them, it’s only because you are a stupid, selfish, racist, Trump-worshiping, flat-earther.

That’s why you cannot be trusted to make responsible decisions for yourself, and should be coerced through media censorship, economic sanctions, social pressure, and physical violence, if necessary, to comply with any and all Public Health diktats, regardless of how draconian, whether they work or not, and no matter how much harm they cause. My liberal friends tell me to shut-up, sign the papers, take the shots, and “trust the experts,” because unless we all do it, it won’t work for any of us. The absurdity of that position is completely lost on them, and they don’t realize that attitude makes them Nazis.

They don’t realize that all of a sudden they look dumber than Trump, more bigoted than the Proud Boys, and scarier than the KKK. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, and experienced it first hand, I would not have believed that my liberal friends would fall for this flood of bioengineered bullshit, but they swallowed every last bit of it and they’re begging for more.

So, now I’m surrounded by liberal Jewish, feminist, LGBTQ, and SNAG Nazis, and they’re all goose-stepping right into the gas-chambers. They don’t know they’ve signed-up for a lethal injection lottery in the name of “Public Health,” but that’s exactly what they did. They don’t know that they are capitulating to global Nazism and selling their children into slavery, without a fight, but they are.

I think the lockdown did something to them. All of that time spent in mediated, propaganda-saturated, virtual environments, physically separated from other humans, must have affected their thinking. Perhaps, because of the isolation, they failed to catch the cynical smirks, outbursts of incredulity, and disbelieving eye-rolls of their peers that would have tipped them off that no part of this pandemic story was believable.

Instead, they meekly accepted the cowardly anonymity of mask and screen. They abandoned the real world for a “safe” online “experience,” and now they’re cooperating with a global Nazi coup because they are afraid of a respiratory virus. Whether the lockdown did something to them, or merely revealed something about them, it really hurts to watch it happen to my friends.

As disappointed as I am in them, and I’m very disappointed, I still consider them friends. More importantly, I still consider them people. I still recognize them as my community. I know that my fate is intimately wrapped-up with theirs, and that we need each other to survive this. That is why I speak-out about it, and that’s why I’m writing to you. I don’t care if you’re offended. I want you to know that it’s not OK to remain silent. It’s not OK to censor, and it’s not OK to comply with any more “Public Health” orders that muzzle our voices or limit our right to assemble.

Cooperating with Nazis makes you a Nazi. Cooperating with Nazis makes you an accessory to their crimes against humanity, and cooperating with Nazis will get you killed. It’s time to wake-up, friends, because that’s not how I want to remember you.

Why a Snake?

I’m working on a movie project with Myles Moscato about what it took, and who it took, to overcome half-a-century of anti-marijuana propaganda and reintroduce America to hemp. In the process, I’ve had to review a lot of old anti-drug propaganda. It’s kind of a walk down memory lane, and this memory goes back just about as far as I can remember. This was my first introduction to marijuana.

I must have been three or four the first time I saw this ad, and I’m sure I saw it hundreds of times on TV during weekday early morning cartoons. I’m sure I never heard of marijuana before I saw this ad. I remember that this ad was also the first, and only, time I ever heard of smoking corn silk, which I eventually tried. Looking back, the comparison to smoking corn silk hints of hemp’s agricultural roots. It reminded me of this old country song about cannabis:

Back to the AMA’s PSA, I understood what Tinker toys were, because I had them at the time.

I had no idea who the AMA were, but, having seen their ad, I was much more curious about their logo than I was marijuana. I liked snakes very much as a child. I remember wondering about that snake.

It only appeared briefly, but there it was, a snake, wrapped around a stick, only for a second, and with no explanation. Why a snake?

That’s one of my oldest memories. Finding this relic brought it right back. The War on Drugs was real. It was a psychological information war waged against the American people. This movie will be about what it takes to overcome a multi-billion dollar propaganda machine and change the minds of Americans.

I’m excited about this project and am eager to get it out, but I also find this old anti-drug propaganda fascinating in and of itself, both historically and rhetorically, as well as aesthetically and psychologically, but also nostalgically, because it was so integral to my early development.

Total Mindfuck!

The 21st Century has devolved into a total mindfuck.

The schism between the mediated world and, for lack of a better term, the unmediated world continues to expand.

By “mediated world” I refer to the world as it appears in media. The “unmediated world” refers to the world that we use media to escape.

In the past, we recognized that the mediated world was simply an imitation, a fantasy for our entertainment.

Today, especially since the pandemic, people believe what they see on their screens more than the evidence of their own senses.

They trust the authorities in the media even when it stretches their own credulity and contradicts their personal experience.

Now that the mediated world has diverged so so profoundly from the unmediated world, a new phenomena emerges where people eagerly sacrifice their own unmediated reality in service of a media fiction completely lacking in credibility or consistency.

Paradoxically, the less consistent or credible the media fiction, the more people are willing to sacrifice to demonstrate their devotion to it.

This is neither healthy nor sustainable, but those concepts are of no concern to these devotees, because “health” and “sustainability” only apply to the unmediated world, which they all seem to eager to abandon.

It really disturbs me to watch my liberal and progressive friends goose-stepping into a digital concentration camp, while listening to them condemn and demonize anyone who doesn’t buy into the wholly fictitious narrative being crammed down their throats by every mainstream media outlet in the country, if not world.

Totalitarianism is a curious phenomena. I now understand why Hannah Arendt found it so fascinating.

It reveals something about the human character that we’d prefer not to see.

But here we are.

Former Pfizer VP Tells the Truth about Covid Vaccines.

Dr Mike Yeadon is a highly qualified medical professional with experience in respiratory viruses and new drug development. he’s been speaking out against Covid “vaccines” since they first rolled out. So far, his predictions about them have been prescient. In this latest interview, from the podcast series “Doctors and Scientists” he goes into detail about the dangers we face from these experimental gene therapies, and from proposed “vaccine passports.” I hope you will take the time to watch it.

What Happened to Liberals and Progressives?

Just so you know where I’m coming from: I was raised in a union family, and I served as a UAW shop steward for a time. My mother never let me forget the importance of a woman’s right to safe, legal access to reproductive medical care, including abortion. I’ve been politically active and outspoken most of my life, advocating for cannabis legalization and an end to the War on Drugs, saner environmental policies, and civil rights. I supported Bernie Sanders, and I think European style socialism, like you find in Sweden, Norway and Denmark, looks pretty good from my perspective.

I also despise Trump. I hate rich people on principle. People don’t get rich by accident, and it is neither a noble nor worthy goal. People get rich by making other people poor, and taking advantage of them, not necessarily in that order. They do it because money is how men with no talent get laid, and Trump is the perfect example of that. I find him obnoxious, boorish and dim-witted, and I would vote for an infectious disease before I would vote for him.

Really, I would vote for Covid-19 for President of the United States before I would vote for Trump. Considering the alternatives, why not? Covid-19 has great name recognition. Thanks to a hugely successful pandemic with numerous variant sequels, no one has wooed the media in the last two years more than that spikey little coronavirus. Of course all Covid-19 has done is kill people and make them sick, so Covid-19 has some image problems to work out. But, considering that both presumed candidates supported Operation Warp Speed and share responsibility for the Covid Vaccine Disaster that has already killed more people than Covid-19, and promises to keep killing Americans through the election cycle, I think Covid-19 can win the 2024 presidential election. But I digress.

My point is, that until the pandemic, I identified with liberals and progressive Democrats more than anyone else in the political spectrum. Today, however, when I hear liberals and progressives cheer vaccine mandates, censorship, lockdown measures, and medical tyranny, it turns my stomach. When liberals and progressives sneer at personal freedom and advocate authoritarianism in the name of “Public Health,” they cross a very bright line, and it should give them pause. When you throw civil rights under the bus in favor of public safety, you are asking for a very different kind of country. I know that I, and I suspect that you, really don’t want to live in in that kind of place.

When we forget the principles that unite us, despite our differences, only our differences remain. I will stand for personal freedom, bodily autonomy, privacy, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of association for everyone, including myself. When we stand together on those uniting principles, we have the power to insure them for everyone. Without those uniting principles, the movement shatters into a jumble of militant minorities with narrowly-focused agendas and narrow-minded constituents.

If I have to roll up my sleeve to get a job, why should I care if you have to spread your legs to get one. If I can’t go to a restaurant, concert or bar because I’m unvaccinated, why should I care if you can’t get in because you are Black or Jewish. If my doctor is censored, vilified and driven underground because he practices alternative medicine, why should I care if you are censored, vilified and driven underground because of your alternative sexual practices. Without the overarching principles of personal freedom, bodily autonomy and human dignity, Progressives lack the vitality to inspire solidarity.

More starkly, by embracing media censorship over the principle of Free Speech, by trusting government spokesmen rather than investigating evidence of the illegal bio-weapons program that spawned Covid-19, by turning against your unvaccinated and mask-averse neighbors instead of condemning the criminality of lockdown measures that disrupted our lives and bankrupted over a million small businesses, and by buying into the corrupt Covid vaccine scheme which killed hundreds of thousands of Americans and siphoned billions of tax-dollars into the coffers of Big Pharma, progressives helped facilitate a global fascist coup that annihilated our civil rights, free press, and national sovereignty in favor of global “Public Health” authoritarianism that serves the very narrow interests of a few technocratic billionaires.

These are not the “progressives” I remember. Progressives know better than to trust government, even when it’s run by Democrats. Progressives know that in politics, stated goals are never real goals, and real goals are usually nefarious. Progressives know that corporations lie to them and take advantage of them at every opportunity, and that disasters create opportunities. Progressives know that unless you keep a watchful and skeptical eye on your government, and keep it moored to the principles upon which it was founded, it won’t be long before the atrocities start, and once they start, those atrocities become very difficult to stop. That’s why Progressives need to come to their senses right now! It’s already too late.

Played Like a Fiddle

As soon as the bombs started falling on Ukraine, the memes started dropping on Facebook. Suddenly, I’m getting bombed by blue and yellow Support Ukraine memes, followed by Boogieman Putin memes, Ukrainian refugees with their pets memes, and heroic Ukrainian freedom fighter memes. This is what a 21st Century propaganda war looks like. I don’t know where these memes come from, but they were clearly created by professionals, and released strategically.

Don’t get me wrong. I have only sympathy, compassion and concern for the people of Ukraine and my prayers go out to them. I also have sympathy, compassion and prayers for the Russian soldiers who have no desire to kill Ukrainian people or destroy their homes, but who have been sent on this tragic errand. I have no affection for Putin, and I condemn this invasion. However, the US invades sovereign nations all the time, with much less provocation. If we can’t control our own government’s military aggression, who are we to complain about Russia’s.

What is missing from this deluge of propaganda, is any acknowledgment of US culpability in this dreadful situation. There’s no mention of the long-term CIA operations to install pro-western governments all over Eastern Europe, especially the Ukraine, or of how those operations foment and finance Nazi movements that have persisted in Ukraine since WWII. Nor do they mention the business deals which insure that Ukrainian wealth, humanity and resources be exploited by oligarchs in Berlin, London, and New York, rather than those in Moscow.

On the ground, in that part of the world, there is great disagreement over which of those two “trading partners” offer a better deal, and more than a few idealistic Ukrainians would prefer to cultivate a free and independent nation without any unwelcome influence from abroad. Most, however, would prefer any of the above options, to war.

Crisis in Ukraine

Considering US culpability as the driving force behind NATO’s eastward expansion, We the People, bear responsibility for this mess, even though most of us had no idea what our government was doing over there behind our backs. This is a problem. Our government represents us, and when our government commits really horrible, atrocious crimes against humanity, We the People are to blame. However, We the People are the most media-hypnotized people on Earth, and consequently, corporate interests can obtain our permission, through hypnosis, to use our government in any way they choose.

Let me say that again. We are the most media-hypnotized people on Earth, and corporate interests use media hypnosis to get our permission to use our government to do their dirty work. It’s called “Manufactured Consent.” We get bombarded with one-sided propaganda promoting an impossibly simple, unbelievably naive narrative about Ukraine, just at the moment that their impossibly simple, unbelievably naive narrative about Covid began to collapse.

Russia launched its invasion, just as 2021 US mortality rates revealed a shockingly high death toll. The US overall mortality rate, which remained unchanged through the 2020 Covid pandemic, shot up by 40% in 2021 following the roll-out of Covid vaccines. That’s an unprecedented spike in overall mortality. Researchers estimate that lockdown measures reduced the average American’s life expectancy by almost 2 years, another shocking impact, and a recent study by the Harvard School of Applied Economics revealed that lockdown measures did almost no good, for the enormous amount of harm they caused.

Anne and her family were exterminated by Nazis. The best is yet to come!

I’m just warning you that the people feeding you this bullshit about Ukraine are the same people who convinced you to needlessly live under house arrest for two years, take potentially lethal injections of experimental drugs that don’t work, and wear a mask that you know doesn’t stop the fine particulate matter associated with forest-fires, but somehow prevents the spread of a virus that is a hundred times smaller.

As I see it, there are four great tragedies playing out here:

1. The tragedy of war in Ukraine, for which we bear some responsibility.

2. The Tragedy of US Foreign Policy, driven by oligarchs, promoted through corporate media and drenched in the blood of humanity that stains the hands of every American. The crimes against humanity attributed to our out-of-control government’s policies would, in fact does, fill many volumes. For brevity’s sake only, let’s leave it at that.

3. The Tragedy of Media Monopoly, internet censorship, and the deluge of propaganda that manipulated Americans into doing far more harm, not only to millions of people all over the world, but to themselves, their fellow citizens and their own country, than any foreign power could dream of.

4. Finally, The Tragedy of the American People. Thousands of Americans died needlessly because they were denied early treatment to Covid. Tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people died, and continue to die, from adverse reactions to Covid vaccines, and thousands more people died deaths of despair as they watched their businesses, marriages, and/or careers collapse under lockdown measures. Perhaps worst of all, in the midst of this tragedy, a kind of insanity has taken hold.

In this socially atomized, media-hypnotized, environment of fear and isolation, Americans are shell-shocked, confused and traumatized. They have no idea where to turn. Out of habit, they turn on the TV; they read the news; they scroll through their feed, because they don’t know what else to do. So, they still live in a virtual reality where Covid vaccines are “safe and effective” and the disease is worth sacrificing your quality of life to avoid. The media continues to ignore the mountain of Covid “vaccine” injuries, while Biden’s administration keeps pushing Americans into this new medical authoritarianism that censors the wails of grieving families while it floods cyberspace with electronic propaganda.

The schizophrenia has taken a toll on the American psyche, and understandably so. Without a firm grip on reality, we’re left rudderless in a shit-storm of sophisticated propaganda. Unfortunately, the technocrats spreading this propaganda know this, and they know how to capitalize on the injuries they’ve already inflicted. Thus far, they’ve played us like a fiddle, and they’re still calling the tune. Regardless of the situation in Ukraine, the tragedy of the American people strikes closest to home, and that’s the one I’m most concerned about.

An Unpublished Letter to the NCJ

I submitted this letter to the North Coast Journal after they announced that they were going to stop focusing on pandemic fearmongering. This is the letter they refused to print:

Dear Editor,

I’m so glad to hear that the NCJ will stop hyper-focusing on Covid. While I am most eager to get back to living a less severely restricted life, I know that a lot of us have questions about what we just went through. For instance: Why did following “Best Medical Practices” as ordered by our Public Health officials, lead to the worst case scenario for our community?

We in the US comprise 4% of the world’s human population, but we suffered 15% of the world’s Covid casualties, despite the fact, or perhaps because of the fact, that Public Health authorities turned our lives upside-down in response. Why did all of the emergency measures, that disrupted our lives so dramatically, fail so spectacularly? Who is responsible, not only at the national level, but also here in Humboldt? How can we insure that nothing like this ever happens again?

And while we are on the subject of medical malfeasance. Why are the world’s most vaccinated nations, like Israel and the UK, seeing the biggest surges of Omicron? Why are so many people dying suddenly after vaccination? Why does anyone still recommend or require Covid vaccines given their complete failure to stop the disease, and their proven danger? Specifically, why didn’t the NCJ report on the spike in death and injury reports to CDC’s VAERS system following the Covid “vaccine” rollout?

Finally, why did the NCJ use such sleazy rhetoric, including scapegoating and dehumanizing epithets, to marginalize anyone who disagreed with those disastrous Public Health diktats? We deserve answers to these questions, and if you ever expect us to trust you again, you’ve got some explaining to do.

Sincerely,

John Hardin

It’s Not About Science, It’s About Power and Control

My liberal friends think they are smart because they think they understand the science used to justify lockdown measures, masking ordinances and vaccine mandates. They send me vapid little articles that dress government propaganda up with liberal guilt-tripping, insultingly sleazy arguments, and slanderous vilification of the opposition. These articles only make me wonder why they found them convincing in the first place, but for some reason it makes some people feel better to pretend like they know what is going on, no matter how ridiculous the explanation they believe.

In fact, none of the pandemic response measures make any sense from a scientific public health perspective. Quarantines, masking and social distancing have done orders of magnitude more harm than Covid-19. Covid vaccines kill far more people than they save, and the psychological harm of social isolation has driven people to the brink of madness. The “science” used to justify those measures was all bullshit. None of it ever made any sense from a public health perspective, and none of it calculated, let alone considered the side-effects.

On the other hand, from a global fascist coup perspective, the pandemic response was ruthlessly shrewd, and worked flawlessly to prevent people all over the world from opposing the overthrow of their elected governments and an unprecedented transfer of wealth from the middle-class, to the obscenely rich. From the perspective of a global technocratic takeover, the dissolution of representative democracy, and the abolition of civil rights, the pandemic response proved brilliant, perhaps the greatest single political achievement of any fascist regime ever.

Think about it. You just witnessed a global fascist coup, and instead of opposing it, you placed yourself under house arrest, did your level best to censor and bully your less gullible friends and neighbors, and then lined up for mass execution. They took over the whole world without firing a single bullet, and you cheered for them, took your shot, and turned on your friends who didn’t. That’s what just happened folks. None of it made sense, scientifically. None of it was necessary, and none of it was about protecting you. Quite the opposite.

So no, I’m not impressed by what you think you know about virology or medicine, even if you are a doctor. Most doctors don’t know much outside of their own narrow specialty, except that they will lose their license if they don’t repeat exactly what the AMA tells them to say. The doctors who specialize in treating people with Covid, and care more about their patients than their income, like Dr Peter McCollough, tell us that masks are useless, Covid vaccines kill people, and early treatment saves lives. Vaccine specialists like Dr. Robert Malone, who invented mRNA vaccines tell us these Covid shots are dangerous in both the short and long-term. Epidemiologists like Dr John Ioannidis tell us that quarantines killed far more people than the virus.

You don’t have to be a doctor to understand what just happened, because it was never about science, medicine or public health. This was all about stealth, deception and power. Billionaires used technology and information as weapons against the people of the world in a global fascist coup. As a result, the world’s power structure has changed, and the United States has been reduced to a banana republic. If you don’t recognize the political reality of what just happened, and you are not outraged, you an idiot, and if you don’t do something about it you are a coward. That’s my scientific analysis of our current predicament.

Nazi Collaborators Journal

Before the pandemic, the North Coast Journal and my liberal friends had a lot in common. They hated Trump, gave lip service to the environment and the rights of minorities, but put most of their energy into acting “cool.” Here on the North Coast, “liberal” is almost a default position. All you have to do to become a liberal in Arcata is be agreeable, but I’m surprised by the spinelessness and soft-headedness of too many of my liberal friends, and I’m even more stunned by the ruthlessness of the crew of the NCJ and their apparent eagerness to abandon their role of facilitating local debate in our community, for the opportunity to oppress us with authoritarian propaganda.

Two years into this global fascist coup, liberal journalists, including those at our own North Coast Journal continue to goose-step the hardest, with clueless liberals lining up behind them yelling “Hail Science, Hail Science” even though none of them have looked at the science. The data from the Phase 3 clinical trial of Pfizer’s Covid vaccine will not be released until 2025. Until independent scientists can see that data and analyze it themselves, any recommendation that anyone take that shot are not based on science, but on unsubstantiated claims made in press releases.

The NCJ deserves a special gold swastika for its efforts at driving the global fascist agenda here in Humboldt County. As our Pied Piper of pandemic panic, the NCJ has dutifully fueled the fear, pumped out the propaganda and vilified dissent. They failed to provide the information we needed to make an informed choice about Covid vaccines. Instead, they cajoled, humiliated, shamed and bullied readers into taking the jab. Practically every media outlet in the country did that, but the NCJ went above and beyond.

Not satisfied to simply ignore and belittle community concerns about vaccine safety, the necessity of masking, or the erosion of civil rights, the NCJ went out of its way to insult everyone who objects to this new authoritarian takeover with their recent “Dickmoves” column. Apparently, anyone who disagrees with them is a “dick” and anything we do to express our views, including taking them to our elected officials, constitutes a “dick move.” That’s some world-class Nazism if you ask me, and I think it deserves special recognition.

The NCJ has become a poison in our community, just like the cigarettes they advertise. Could it be that global corporations buy more than ad space in the NCJ? Regardless, that ad should remind you that the NCJ works for global capitalist predators, not you and I.

Now that the terrible truth about Covid vaccines is coming to light, the thousands of deaths, the hundreds of thousands of debilitating and crippling vaccine-induced injuries, the dismal performance of the shots themselves and their complete failure to stop the disease, not to mention the long-term side-effects of the jabs which continue to emerge. All of these things are happening to real people in our community, but the North Coast Journal continues to ignore it. They ignore it because they are responsible for it.

The NCJ’s complicity in these crimes against humanity will prevent them from ever admitting the truth. Instead, they will say anything to cover up their guilt as long as they can. The local writers and editors at the NCJ are now wed to the beast with bonds steeped in the blood of this community. They have betrayed us, and we should never trust them again.

Covid and the Culture of Maximum Harm

As Southern Humboldt’s most intrepid writer, I understand that this does not constitute a high honor. Here in Humboldt County, where “positivity” trumps reality, and we spend more time cultivating flattering lies about ourselves than looking at the truth. We’ve become exceptionally good at ignoring things like dead bodies, huge ripoffs, and widespread environmental destruction as “business as usual.” But, when a brand new elephant shows up and makes itself comfortable on our sofa, and no one else seems to see it, I recognize my responsibility to my community. I mostly stopped writing about life in SoHum a couple of years ago to focus on music. I have a lot more to say beyond words than I do with words these days, but times like these demand more from us, and clearly, SoHum needs my perspective now more than ever.

In case you haven’t noticed, maybe because you were too busy compulsively washing your hands, that our constitutional democracy got overthrown by a public health dictatorship. Two years into this fiasco, the US has logged more Covid deaths, both in total, and per capita, than any other developed nation on Earth. Clearly, what we did in response to Covid, was wrong. Way wrong. Wronger than any other first-world nation on Earth. Why was that?

Besides that, the average American life expectancy dropped by 1.9 years during the pandemic, not because of Covid, most Covid deaths were among people who had already exceeded the average life expectancy. No, American life expectancy dropped because addiction, overdose, depression, alcoholism, suicide, anxiety, hunger, despair, unemployment, loneliness, isolation and fear all soared during the pandemic, greatly exacerbated by the draconian restrictions instituted in response to the pandemic. Those restrictions, and the social and economic consequences of them, killed millions of healthy Americans in the prime of their lives. We could hardly have done more damage to Americans’ health if we tried.

Again, why is that? Were these policies designed to harm us? I think that’s a fair question to ask, considering how successfully they disrupted our lives, ruined our businesses, overthrew our democracy and rescinded our civil rights, as opposed to how poorly their strategy worked to prevent deaths from Covid.

Here in Humboldt County we lost twice as many people to overdose in 2020 as we did to Covid, and I’ll bet that’s true in 2021 as well, but they don’t report about that epidemic anymore. Somehow they deem it appropriate to spare us that grim body count. Nor do we hear about the suicides, heart attacks, liver disease, etc. Unless you die of Covid, you don’t count. Our local media continues to ignore the damage wrought by draconian lockdown restrictions, but anyone who dares criticize these measures gets vilified mercilessly. What’s up with that?

During the War on Drugs, we used the term “Culture of Maximum Harm” to describe the perverse way in which efforts to curb drug abuse, by criminalizing drug users, caused far more harm than drug abuse itself. In fact, the War on Drugs strategy of arresting and incarcerating drug users and peddlers seems to have been devised so as to cause the maximum possible harm to society. When we saw how the culture of maximum harm used the pretense of addressing a public health crisis as cover for violence, human rights violations and political oppression, we saw the War on Drugs, not as an effort to curb drug use, but as a tool to invade privacy, incarcerate millions, and as a distraction from, and excuse for, crimes against humanity.

We see the same culture of maximum harm at work today in the Covid Pandemic, and the same idiotic enthusiasm for strategies with a proven track record of failure. Masking causes more infections than it prevents. Social isolation kills more Americans than Covid, and don’t even get me started on vaccines and vaccine injuries. If you took the ripoff death-jab, I’m sorry. I really am, but Covid vaccines don’t work, and besides that, they kill people. That’s just the truth.

Ten years and 666+ posts later, SoHum still needs someone who isn’t afraid to confront the obvious, no matter how unpopular or inconvenient, and the obvious has never been more unpopular or inconvenient than it is right now. I wish it weren’t so, and that I didn’t have to do it, but no one else around here will. Like it or not, you need me right now, because there’s something you need to know, and it’s staring you in the face, but for some reason you just don’t see it yet. So welcome back.
