“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
Looking around the CDC website, I eventually found what I was looking for. It was off the beaten path, but in a place where journalists were apparently used to looking for goodies on a weekly basis.
This is much like an academic paper. Here is the title information:
Let’s put that into text.

Summary
What is already known about this topic?
High levels of immunity and availability of effective COVID-19 prevention and management tools have reduced the risk for medically significant illness and death.
What is added by this report?
To prevent medically significant COVID-19 illness and death, persons must understand their risk, take steps to protect themselves and others with vaccines, therapeutics, and nonpharmaceutical interventions when needed, receive testing and wear masks when exposed, receive testing if symptomatic, and isolate for ≥5 days if infected.
What are the implications for public health practice?
Medically significant illness, death, and health care system strain can be reduced through vaccination and therapeutics to prevent severe illness, complemented by use of multiple prevention methods to reduce exposure risk and an emphasis on protecting persons at high risk for severe illness.
Given that NPR is an official party organ, that’s pretty serious. I repeat:
So assuming you’ve read one of the summaries (Fox or CNET) or at least the NPR checklist, what do more critical voices think?
Many people consider it a REVERSAL OF POLICIES in several important ways. Naomi Wolf, who has championed medical freedom from a classical liberal standpoint, is one of them.
Naomi and Steve Take a Tour of WTF Falls
CDC’s sudden reversal on COVID guidance – from obsessively meddling and frequently “backwards” to “almost sane” – is almost certainly political in many ways, including a reaction of the DNC to their dismal prospects in the upcoming election. And yet the new guidance does do some scientific “hand-waving” to justify itself.
Without making enough of a point about natural immunity to admit its superiority to the immunity offered by the “vaccines”, CDC has admitted the fact that natural immunity, along with clot shot immunity, has effectively ended the crisis of the virus.
The crisis of the vaccinated, however, is just beginning.
people don’t want COVID vaccines – Moderna is throwing out 30 million unwanted doses
people don’t want the vaccines for their kids
vaccines don’t affect transmission, and CDC no longer says so
there’s no reason to have mandates, firings, dismissals
now after all the destruction, not even an apology, just ignore vaccination status
“the edifice is crumbling, because so many people have exposed their lies”
the legacy media is not questioning the reversal – just putting it out there
CDC is making up a fantasy about the science having evolved
no evidence is presented, just as no evidence was presented before
no mention is made of the devastation from the policies that went before
So what does the Wolf think of all this?
Light in August
The novel is an exploration of what we think we know vs what we actually know.
Pamela Jean, Goodreads
To dig out the truth, as scientists instead of artists, we have to “think we know” things, and on average, more often than not, what we think we know has to turn into what we actually know.
In addition to simply denying us “things we think we know” by gaslighting and censorship, one of the ways that criminals get away with things, is by throwing enough phony “think we know” at us, to prevent us from ever getting to the point of actually knowing things.
“Chaff and countermeasures“, as Sundance likes to call them.
To me, the very first CHAFF is right in the “title” of the “new guidance”. The PROPAGANDA is LEADING with the “new goal”.
Summary of Guidance for Minimizing the Impact of COVID-19 on Individual Persons, Communities, and Health Care Systems — United States, August 2022
These creeps didn’t just say something short and open-ended like “Summary of Guidance for Management of COVID-19, August 2022” – they added their alleged goal right there.
“Minimizing the Impact of COVID-19 on Individual Persons, Communities, and Health Care Systems“
WAIT A MINUTE.
SO – suddenly THAT MATTERS?
It didn’t matter EARLIER.
These two things are things we actually know.
That title of the new guidance could have been written by Scott Atlas. You know – the SWORN ENEMY OF SCARF WENCH. And yet – we are now in the BIDEN administration – which pushed the FATAL SHOTS.
It has been my contention that Scott Atlas was ABSOLUTELY NOT on #TeamDepopulation, and that Birx refusal to even go to meetings where he was present, was not only a smart tactic of policy engagement, but a tactic of “big plot defense”.
If there was ever anybody who would have seen through to the “virtuous depopulation plan to save the planet from climate change” in real time, it would have been Scott Atlas. Here is a guy who understood motivation in health care, from the inside – but obviously from the “old days” of FIRST, DO NO HARM. He’s old school – just look at his age – obvious in the picture. If Birx would have slipped up somehow in gunning for more control, less treatment, and ultimate reliance on the statistically fatal shots, it would have been clear as day to Atlas. HIS suspicions could have been raised to the proper levels.
This is something we THINK WE KNOW – not something we ACTUALLY KNOW.
At least, NOT YET.
Ideas that can become things we ACTUALLY KNOW have to become CONCEIVABLE first, and to become conceivable TO THE PUBLIC, they have to become public.
This is why ALL THE CENSORSHIP. The “virtuous depopulation plan” was not allowed to become conceivable in the minds of men and women, by not allowing the smaller components of the idea to take shape – to fit together like a jigsaw puzzle, leading to NEW EVIDENCE.
Sure – they love to let people make the BIG assertions, because who would believe them? It’s the smaller things that add up, that allow us to see that 1+2+3+4=10.
Now – Birx is a tricky one. Not only does she admit to sabotaging Trump in terms of her reporting practices and bureaucratic policy documentation, which can be made to look virtuous to the left – she even tried to feed Trump rope to hang himself, which is at best unseemly, and at worst treasonous.
An example of that level of personal duplicity is how Birx gave Trump a “tour of the incredible” in terms of COVID cures, leading Trump to then give the waiting Fake News media exactly what it wanted – “injection of bleach”, “crazy ultraviolet treatments”, and all that noise.
Let’s be very blunt. Birx SET TRUMP UP. KNOWINGLY.
At the time of “infamous injection of bleach”, I was struck by Trump’s demeanor when stating the things he did. It was clear to me that he KNEW this would feed the media with red meat for controversy, but even more, I detected DISDAIN FOR BIRX, as he mentioned VERY BRIEFLY having gotten the tour, and then proceeded to “step into the trap” by stating some of the things they looked at, stripped of anything he MUST have heard, supporting their scientific credibility.
Typical Trump – allowing the Fake News to backhandedly validate him, while not “appearing weak” by making the arguments himself.
He let Scarf Wench crow for the moment, only to “wear the L” later.
Getting back to the point, there has to be a set of reasons WHY CDC is suddenly “normalizing normal again”.
Democrats are no longer pretending. They’re doing the right thing. WHY?
The election is surely one of them. Democrat voters need to come back for their hug after being bitch-beaten to the graveyard.
But there is MORE. This policy is IN MOTION. It has already been allowed to pass the phalanx of school administrators, who had earlier enjoyed their lockdown and mandate powers well beyond the expiration date.
Holly brought us EVIDENCE in that regard. I invite you to enjoy this conversation as much as we did!
Good sign! Utica University’s fall 2022 covid policy no longer requires the vaxx or exemptions for ANYONE. Private and in New York. This is a big deal.
This is now something we ACTUALLY KNOW. Democrats (teachers unions and university administrators) are doing a 180 in terms of feeding the “protesting parents of Democrat-abused children” with any MEDICAL reasons to protest. Even at the CDC level, they are relenting.
WHY? Just for the election?
Democrats are STILL pushing both TRANS and CRT in schools. Indeed, the early assertion that the notorious Tavistock Institute was being shut down not as victory over TRANS, but as a form of TARGET DENIAL, so that TRANS could be disseminated to hospitals and schools, seems to be borne out, as the center of the fight has indeed shifted to a multitude of “woke” hospitals with insane new TRANS policies.
No. There is more. And I may not ACTUALLY KNOW that the depoppers in American medical bureaucracy are strategically retreating, but I certainly THINK I KNOW THIS.
Fauci’s announced retirement at the end of the Biden administration notwithstanding, I suspect that he will exit SOONER – particularly in the event of Republican control of the House. This will have the effect of thwarting public revelation of facts which would lead irrevocably to the realization of what I am certain actually happened – that a shot which damages the hearts of ALMOST ALL RECIPIENTS AFTER REPEATED INJECTION was advanced KNOWINGLY.
I find it interesting that science is now catching up to the plot, and results which should have been obvious earlier, if things were actually innocent, are NOW becoming obvious to scientists who are innocent enough to publish.
Consider the NUMBERS in this very recent Thai study. My comments on Gab, wrapped around comments by Steve Kirsch, who sees the same evidence, but seems to be keeping any recognition of the plot quiet for now. AND YET HE TAUNTS THEM.
What was that they were saying, that had no effect on Republican scientists, but might actually troll up some Democrat scientists to “action”?
“There’s no time.”
Likewise – at the top – people who are intellectually unable to question science from a standpoint of common sense and moral solidity, can easily get out over their skis, when urged by others who they trust. I think I know that Andrew Cuomo is one of them.
I don’t ACTUALLY know who had prior knowledge of the “left-virtuous plan”, but I am gaining pieces of the puzzle every day. Millions of actions which appear to be mistakes, take shape when we consider that thousands of those actions, committed by a small but core cadre of “knowing” participants, created virtue signals that drove the vast remainder of DUPES to participate in a massive folly.
And what is that folly?
Deploying the MOST ADVERSE VACCINE IN HUMAN HISTORY – while simultaneously REFUSING TO EXAMINE OR ADMIT the evidence of its adversity. The actions of the whole PROTECTED THE ADVERSITY.
And remember – that ratio – scientifically studied by the CIA – makes all sorts of things possible.
Motivations in real conspiracies are always complex, interlocking, apparently contradictory, and tend to “shift and flip” in going down from the most knowing top to the less knowing bottom – yet each layer knows the guilt of their own interests and participation. This form of guilty self-motivation locks people – including mostly innocent people – into defending the whole construct.
I do not actually know who the core cadre is, but I’m working on it.
Your suspicions as to WHO THEY ARE – are welcome.
We are an investigatory collective. We are free to postulate – to hypothesize – to be both scientists and detectives.
I know what I think. I ACTUALLY KNOW what I think I know.
Why the Communist Chinese Behavior of DOJ and FBI Makes Proof of Life Necessary to Prevent Secret Indictment and Arrest of Trump and Associates
We are entering a dangerous phase, patriots. The DOJ and FBI are becoming desperate liars. Each day, they act MORE and MORE COWARDLY, like their Chinese and North Korean counterparts, who “disappear” people in the interest of “national security” without the slightest apology.
Think it can’t happen here? Think they might not “secretly” arrest Trump, to “prevent violence”?
Let’s walk through this.
Here is one side of that equation. (H/T phoenix)
TUCKER: You can feel it. Trump can feel it. He asked for calm. This could get very bad, very fast for our country pic.twitter.com/Frgfk7mzQG
As you will see from the conversation link above, not everybody was ready to believe that Trump even SAID this. I’m a bit ambivalent about it myself, and have theorized both ways.
I tend to believe he DID say it, but I see an extreme need to be skeptical going forward.
Scott467 did some meticulous digging, and cannot find actual proof that Trump said it, such as a video. And given that Red State was once an anti-Trump oasis, and Fox News literally ASSISTED in the electoral coup against Trump, why should we believe them? I agree. It’s time to be skeptical.
And NOW THIS.
Melania steps out and goes to Trump Tower. As discussed HERE. (H/T Bfly)
We got into bit of discussion about the mask. Take a look.
I mean, take a look.
I mean, really take a look.
Now you all know that I’m a massive skeptic of “doubles” allegations, because in most cases, they’re just disinformation. That disinformation is not only used to make our side look silly – it also protects the REAL cases of stunt doubles, by a kind of “seeded disbelief”.
The fact remains, doubles ARE a real trick, used by all sides. Retired military and DEA operator Jeffrey Prather, who spotted the current use of operators against the American people in recent years, including January Sixth, even talked about the use of doubles in America, on Americans, as the recent “PIT” meeting.
VIDEO: (You’ll have to listen to the whole wonderful thing – I don’t remember where he talked about the doubles.)
Prather mentions MASKS as being part of the “doubles” scam. He also talks about “doubles” being used as part of discreditation, blackmail, and false evidence. Hopefully somebody can get the exact transcription.
I still remember the time that Kamala Harris, that dopey Indian-Jamaican valley girl who can screw up anything, had a political stunt double “screw up” a simple glad-handing job in Palm Beach, thanks to the brilliant provocateur Laura Loomer, who knew that “Real Kamala” was somewhere else as that very moment, and sent the double running for her vehicle.
FAKE KAMALA GOT LOOMERED! – Laura Loomer Catches Kamala Harris BODY DOUBLE at Palm Beach Polling Place! (VIDEO -PHOTOS)
SO – doubles ARE a real thing, but they can be desperately hard to catch.
You have to admit – this lady looks a LOT like Kamala Harris.
Take a look at Melania again. Are you POSITIVE it’s Melania?
Even if it IS Melania, we are going to have to think hard about KAPO’S next move.
We KNOW that this LAWFARE REGIME will literally SANCTION its own illegal and unconstitutional acts against us. Just like every dirty trick they used against Trump – all of which I believe were “globally sanctioned” by horrifying and ANATHEMA secret treaties.
Remember – it’s how they SLEEP AT NIGHT. They tell themselves that everything they do is “legal”.
SO – let’s consider this scenario.
Let’s assume that KAPO – Merrick Garland – acting under the orders of Stalinist ASSHOLE Barack Obama, via the grubby lips of professional LIAR Susan Rice, needs to INDICT or even ARREST Donald Trump.
This may even be a SECRET indictment, under SECRET LAW.
Our pathetic and evil government has clearly been caught with their pants down, SECRETLY but “not so secretly” injecting children with poison to fight “climate change” – or so they tell themselves.
Why would they not secretly arrest Trump?
Would it not be better “for national security” to order some kind of hoax-protected secret arrest “in the interest of public safety”?
Would it not be better FOR THEM to seed disinformation that “all is well”?
Maybe even on social media?
Think about how COWARDLY these asshole DODGE and FIB communists actually are.
SPIT
These people are NOTHING like the old FBI and DOJ.
How do we know this? Because they’re not the same people carrying the guns.
I don’t know about you all, but I don’t trust this government. AT ALL.
Prepare for them to take down our rightful and true President in the most underhanded ways possible. Nothing is beneath them.
Remember what they did to us on January Sixth – how they STOLE our peaceful protest right out from under us.
Because they don’t want us to protest. They want us to give up. They want to “normalize” the removal of Trump.
What if I could explain every head-scratcher of the “pandemic” with a simple idea – that vaccination is the ideal format for introducing real, workable, tunable, and long-running “population control” into socialized medicine without anybody really noticing or caring?
Intro to the Intro
It’s one of those things that – once you see it – you simply cannot unsee it.
Like the “Buffalo Jump” series I did on the January 6 plot against “those pesky patriots”, there is WAY too much information here for a single post.
Indeed, it is quite possible for me to take the title idea – that the COVID vaccines are humanity’s first significant attempt at a population control shot – and go back over the ENTIRE history of “COVID-19”, and make it all make sense.
Yes. It’s THAT BIG, and THAT USEFUL.
And one of the ways I’m going to help make this make sense, is to argue FOR THE SHOT. That doesn’t actually mean that I’m FOR this idiotic HOLOCAUST in all capital letters, which makes the “Holocaust” look like spilled beer at a barbecue in comparison. No.
The thing is, you can’t really understand Fauci, Walensky, Gates, Schwab, Cuomo, Clinton, and all the rest, unless you do what the acting coaches tell you – “FIND THEIR MOTIVATION”.
So that’s what we’re going to do.
The First Big Dodge
OH – and by the way – if you just look at all those names I listed above, I only see two “maybe” Jews in the bunch. And it’s not like I know which temple these people go to. For all I know, there’s not a Jew in the bunch, depending on your definition of a Jew.
People are already trying to get out in front of this little democide thing by the SPLC “flyers method” – you know what I’m talking about – setting up charges of “anti-semitism”, which tells me that they know this TORPEDO OF TRUTH hits them at mid-ships, and “THEY” are therefore desperate.
The antisemitism defense is always reached for in desperation. The usual suspects who play Crump and Sharpton games to stay relevant, always chime in, too.
Why, even the genocidally practiced TEDROS and his cronies are getting nervous.
Check out this “flyers method” meme which – thankfully – Valerie Curren found on Gab, where I’ve already dropped a few test posts about my “depopulation” theory. Sure enough, chumming the waters with “we have you suckers” brought up this WHOPPER to the surface.
As I stated in response to Valerie’s comment, yes, there will be lots of “Jews” involved in this thing, but there will be lots of everybody else, too.
So – to critics of our RECOGNITION of the “virtuous global plan to confront the population crisis” – forget about painting this as a “Jewish” plot. EVERYBODY was in on this thing.
Well – ALMOST everybody.
SO – let’s just start RIGHT THERE.
You want to know why Trump “could not be President”? HERE’S YOUR ANSWER.
He wasn’t “in” on the plot – very likely because they KNEW he would object, and could not be “blackmailed, bribed, or controlled” into going along with it.
Exactly the same thing with me. They couldn’t corral me into this plot, so I was always kept at arms length from most of the “secrets of Shallow State”.
Likewise for all the “white hats”. People who live in the light – who DEMAND the light – could not be in on this sucker. Even if they thought “depopulation” might be a good thing.
You see, I actually believe in “depopulation”. I believe that the planet would be better off with fewer people. In fact, I actually thought those damn Guidestones were pretty smart.
The PROBLEM is that people are sorely tempted to do STUPID THINGS to get there.
LIKE MURDER. LIKE DEMOCIDE. LIKE HOLOCAUST.
It doesn’t mean the goal of fewer people sharing the planet is wrong, even if it’s not gospel. It’s just how you get there.
See the new tagline of the site.
“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.”
J. Robert Oppenheimer
When I was a kid, with only a few billion people on Earth, “wilderness” was constantly reclaiming land outside of cities and farms. Even construction dump sites, left alone and given a few years to lay idle, would heal back into glorious wilds with all sorts of fish, animals, and lush plant life.
Let’s be honest. Is that such a bad thing? A world that WORKS? Where every single person has more planet supporting them?
LIKE THINGS USED TO BE? AM I RIGHT – FELLOW CONSERVATIVES? THE PAST WAS ACTUALLY… GOOD?
Humanity has time. There’s no rush. Sure, I agree that we need to have kids, and stay fruitful, but civilization teaches us that we don’t have to live in total squalor. I believe Christ without question, that there will always be poor, because in a rich world, being poor is not only very easy and safe, but it is very ennobling in a world of relative plenty. SEE HISTORY.
Poverty is not the problem. The world needs poor people. But the fewer the people, if we get back to some optimum, some world of plenty, even the POOR are better off. (Note that Elon Musk says he thinks we need MORE people to reach the optimum. I’m not saying he’s wrong.)
Again, I believe that “depopulation” might not be a bad thing. At least, it doesn’t HAVE to be a bad thing.
HOWEVER, I don’t believe in telling even a SINGLE LIE to achieve depopulation. It’s WRONG.
Furthermore, “group suicide by lottery”, which is what these damn shots really are, is SINFUL, and must be rejected by Jews and Christians – and I would argue good Muslims as well (meaning the ones who don’t “suicide”). The clot shot is not a proper martyrdom for ANYBODY, IMO.
I did not have any religious opposition to these shots earlier – all of my objections were medical and scientific. But NOW, however, I have to add a religious objection. These shots are medically worthless compared to disease-conferred immunity, AND they are part of an effort to cause statistical shortening of life AND abortion.
Sorry – no can do – nor should any believer in God, IMO.
But let’s get back to something I said.
Virtue Depends On The Observer
Remember what I said earlier – what I called the plot…..
“the virtuous global plan to confront the population crisis”
Notice that when I put it THAT WAY, it doesn’t sound half bad. In fact, in “libtard” circles, it sounds pretty heroic.
ARE YOU STARTING TO SEE WHY PEOPLE DID THIS?
Their audience is not YOU or ME – their audience is EACH OTHER – and I’m pretty sure that these “Bilderberg” and “WEF” and other fancy globalist venues were all MODERATOR-LED DISCUSSIONS – that ironically led us to precisely where we are now. To a chorus of “somebody needs to do something”. AND THEY DID.
In THEIR circles, “doing something” about the population crisis is “noble”.
But how to make everybody ELSE see it as noble?
One of the things that is absolutely necessary to make this vaccination depopulation plot work, is for the media to never talk about the downside, for individuals, of taking part in the “clottery”, as some folks have cunningly anticipated this entire theory in a single word.
In case you haven’t noticed, the psychology of what the press is doing now is in perfect alignment with this theory. The press literally models to the sheep, the “correct” behavior when people die of the shot. NEVER talk about the shot being responsible.
People IGNORE IT because they have been TAUGHT TO IGNORE IT.
People EXCUSE IT because they have been TAUGHT TO EXCUSE IT.
People DON’T TALK ABOUT IT because they have been TAUGHT TO NOT TALK ABOUT IT.
And soon enough, the memories of WHAT IT WAS LIKE BEFORE THE SHOT will fade.
They KNOW this will work.
I repeat with more precision. The press is NOT being stupid. They are normalizing the idea of not talking about the downside of vaccines – until we don’t – until we CAN’T even see the downside, because we can’t remember a side that was any less “down”.
In my opinion, it is evil genius, and it has been working REMARKABLY WELL.
They have done it for YEARS, and they have done it on PURPOSE. And they have done it MORE and MORE and MORE and MORE, until we arrived HERE.
And even WE THE SKEPTICS, almost have to SLAP ourselves to see it.
In a normal science world, that’s F-ING crazy – and I use the word F-ING with great intent, because I want to WAKE YOUR ASS UP. Think how crazy that is – for the press to not talk about the downside of these vaccines, or to occasionally excuse it, or to blame the deaths on something else NUTTY like “global warming” or “stress” or “growing up”.
ALL OF THAT. All of it. Is explained by the idea that they are attempting to normalize an increase in deaths due to something we can’t talk about and be good people.
Are you REALLY starting to see how BLIND we have been?
We can sit there and logically SAY things like “Oh, yeah, it’s a depopulation shot”, but to REALLY get it, you need to look at it from both the PLOTTERS’ perspective, and the SHEEP’S perspective.
But once you DO, you actually see it so clearly, it becomes yet MORE proof that this is exactly what they’re doing.
And while we’re on the topic of PROOF…..
The Nursing Home Killers
When you understand that Andrew Cuomo was trying to “make the noble plot work”, THEN you can understand why he KNOWINGLY sent infected COVID patients back into nursing homes.
AND why the DNC had to turn THAT scandal into a “kissing scandal”, as they sent Cuomo into what they likely figure will be 5-10 years of “career rehab”.
Interestingly, they didn’t have to repeat it for any other governors after the first try.
We knew after Cuomo, that there would be no justice for ANY of the Democrat governors who took part in the plot. As long as the FAKE NEWS protected them, there would be no trouble.
The nursing home scandal is not much different from Germany in the 1930s, when the “new socialist doctors” wanted to “socialize medicine”, and one of the most obvious (but horrifying) ways to do that, was to cleanse the patient rolls of those who are going to die soon ANYWAY.
Again, it helps to understand that almost ALL leaders in the world are “in on the plan” to get these shots not just implemented – not just mandated – but NORMALIZED.
The “pandemic” had to be “bad” to mandate the shots. The shots had to be mandated to prevent comparison.
And COMPARISON had to be removed to hide FOREVER the fact that one of humanity’s “necessary” vaccines, was in fact a population and fertility control agent.
First, Fauci burned the PFIZER controls. But THEN he had to burn WE THE CONTROLS – the unvaccinated.
The GOAL was to transition to a state where science would “forget” that the vaccines themselves were reducing population faster than they were saving people from COVID.
It’s a beautiful scam. Stunning, really.
This is why Fauci NEVER touches “cost/benefit” analysis of the vaccines – why he focuses with laser precision on ANTIBODIES, ANTIBODIES, ANTIBODIES – and stays the hell away from everything else. It’s distraction – it’s a magic act – it’s diversion. I’ve referred to it as “antibody hypnosis” and I’m not talking about FAUCI being the one that’s hypnotized.
Rand Paul sees it, of course, but we have gone so far down the track of “normalizing insanity”, that the sight of an MD making the head medical scientist in the government look like either a liar or a fool – take your pick – it just doesn’t register as “not normal” any longer.
SO – I’m going to end this introduction here.
I will be covering more angles on the plot. MANY more. But I need to get you started not just understanding what went on, but actually accepting the horrible truth – and why we have to talk about it. Because if we don’t get this right, humanity is on one long ride to HELL.
Figuring out what Bill Gates was doing, when he forced you to prove he was “innocent”. This is a very slick move that I now refer to as “back fire setting”. Bourla did it, too.
How Two Fallen Theories of Medicine May Herald the Fate of Global Warming / Climate Change
Bad science does not stand forever, but it may stand long enough for people to make a lot of money on it. THAT will be the THEME of the three huge science scandals I’m going to discuss.
In case you’re short on time, the TLDR…..
TL;DR – Two fresh scandals showing how industry money and scientific misconduct kept bad theories “alive” for decades, may explain why the bad science behind politically useful climate alarmism persists.
I. Serotonin Uber Alles
The “serotonin scandal” is very diffuse, which is why it’s in many ways analogous to “climate change”. The bottom line is that what the pharmaceutical industry tells patients about antidepressants, and what scientists know about antidepressants, are not the same thing.
It’s best to start off with the following Tucker Carlson video.
An extremely important selling point of antidepressants, used by both doctors and the pharmaceutical industry, is the idea that people who are depressed, and therefore “need” to take them, actually have some kind of chemical imbalance in their brain that needs to be fixed. More often than any other chemical alleged to be “imbalanced” is serotonin – and hence the emergence of SSRIs, meaning serotonin-selective reuptake inhibitors.
Carlson’s centerpiece is a recent metaanalysis of antidepressant research which showed there is little or no evidence for this “chemical imbalance” assertion.
Antidepressants may work in some people, and thank God they do, but IF they do, and WHEN they do, the simple “chemical imbalance theory” is probably not the reason why.
There is a very good explanation of the study HERE:
No evidence that depression is caused by low serotonin levels, finds comprehensive review
After decades of study, there remains no clear evidence that serotonin levels or serotonin activity are responsible for depression, according to a major review of prior research led by UCL scientists.
The new umbrella review – an overview of existing meta-analyses and systematic reviews – published in Molecular Psychiatry, suggests that depression is not likely caused by a chemical imbalance,and calls into question what antidepressants do. Most antidepressants are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), which were originally said to work by correcting abnormally low serotonin levels. There is no other accepted pharmacological mechanism by which antidepressants affect the symptoms of depression.
Lead author Professor Joanna Moncrieff, a Professor of Psychiatry at UCL and a consultant psychiatrist at North East London NHS Foundation Trust (NELFT), said: “It is always difficult to prove a negative, but I think we can safely say that after a vast amount of research conducted over several decades, there is no convincing evidence that depression is caused by serotonin abnormalities, particularly by lower levels or reduced activity of serotonin.
“The popularity of the ‘chemical imbalance’ theory of depression has coincided with a huge increase in the use of antidepressants. Prescriptions for antidepressants have risen dramatically since the 1990s, with one in six adults in England and 2% of teenagers now being prescribed an antidepressant in a given year.
“Many people take antidepressants because they have been led to believe their depression has a biochemical cause, but this new research suggests this belief is not grounded in evidence.”
Just for the record, I am personally NOT a fan of these sorts of “metaanalysis” papers. In my opinion they tend to be QUASI-OPINIONS with a veneer of science. However, in my own opinion, metaanalyses can be useful when highly conclusive or by reinterpreting data – but should be trusted even less than normal observational science.
Now – it is important to point out that this metaanalysis is not actually telling us anything NEW. Most scientists in the field ALREADY KNEW from all the various studies that were looked at by the metaanalysis, that the simple “chemical imbalance” idea was a load of crap. They’ve known this for YEARS.
REALLY? Yes. Really.
A good description of the state of things is here:
A Popular Theory About Depression Wasn’t “Debunked” by a New Review
The title is a bit deceptive – at least more so than the link which adds “it got debunked years ago”. Ah, the techniques of clickbait!
Anyway, the title could rightfully say:
A Still-Popular But Unproven Old Theory About Depression Wasn’t “Debunked” By A New Review – It Was Simply Confirmed To STILL Be Unsupported By The Data, Despite Being Pushed For Decades By Doctors And Big Pharma Who KNEW It Wasn’t True
Please click the link if you want all the details, but my proposed title says it all. People kept using the theory as a sales and prescription gimmick. Big Pharma “suggested” the theory to doctors, and doctors “suggested” the theory to patients, to get them to take a kind of drug that patients are sometimes very resistant to taking.
Remember – antidepressants do, in fact, work for many patients – particularly for very serious cases of depression. Many people who in the past had to be hospitalized, can now live happy, functional lives in society because of these drugs.
It’s understandable that doctors try to convince patients to take the drugs they think will work to treat their problems.
But should your kids be getting antidepressants because of “school trouble”?
A whole ‘nuther question.
Because THAT is the end result of the little white lie that “people can have an imbalance that needs these drugs.”
We NORMALIZED antidepressents by NORMALIZING an ABNORMALITY that didn’t even exist.
ANYWAY – if the very fact that a WRONG THEORY has been KNOWINGLY spoon-fed to you by “the experts” for DECADES, is not giving you ideas about “climate change” – particularly in the post-COVID world…..
BUT WAIT.
Not quite yet. We have ANOTHER scandal to look at, first.
II. It’s Bush’s Beta Amyloid’s Fault!
This scandal is at the opposite end of the spectrum, from the above one, in which an entire industry and all of medicine KNOWINGLY told a little white lie to the public.
In this case, ONE SCIENTIST tipped the scales inappropriately, sending the entire world, including the rest of science, on a wild goose chase.
The LIE was only caught after years, and almost accidentally.
This is a rather long and interesting story, and I’m not going to recount it all here. But I will give you links and extensive quotes. It’s FASCINATING.
One of the best quick summaries is in, of all places, The Daily Kos.
Last month, drug company Genentech reported on the first clinical trials of the drug crenezumab, a drug targeting amyloid proteins that form sticky plaques in the brains of Alzheimer’s disease patients. The drug had been particularly effective in animal models, and the trial results were eagerly awaited as one of the most promising treatments in years. It did not work. “Crenezumab did not slow or prevent cognitive decline” in people with a predisposition toward Alzheimer’s.
Last year, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) narrowly approved the use of Aduhelm, a new drug from Biogen that the company has priced so highly that it’s expected to drive up the price of Medicare for everyone in America, even those who never need this drug. Aduhelm was the first drug to be approved that fights the accumulation of those “amyloid plaques” in the brain. What makes the approval of the $56,000-a-dose drug so controversial is that while it does decrease plaques, it doesn’t actually slow Alzheimer’s. In fact, clinical trials were suspended in 2019 after the treatment showed “no clinical benefits.” (Which did not keep Biogen from seeking the drug’s approval or pricing it astronomically.)
Over the last two decades, Alzheimer’s drugs have been notable mostly for having a 99% failure rate in human trials. It’s not unusual for drugs that are effective in vitro and in animal models to turn out to be less than successful when used in humans, but Alzheimer’s has a record that makes the batting average in other areas look like Hall of Fame material.
And now we have a good idea of why. Because it looks like the original paper that established the amyloid plaque model as the foundation of Alzheimer’s research over the last 16 years might not just be wrong, but a deliberate fraud.
This story is fantastic, and so I recommend starting with the above Daily Kos article.
Before going into more detail, let me begin to give you my perspective on Alzheimer’s drugs.
I’ve watched a lot of drug classes accumulate new and improved drugs over nearly half a century of interest in the topic, but the TWO categories that have stood out to ME as the WORST in terms of success have been antivirals and Alzheimer’s drugs.
Antivirals first.
As you have seen over the last two and a half years, antivirals are not impossible to find, and while they don’t work 100% of the time, they’re still sometimes VERY helpful.
What has been more shocking to me is that it’s clear that the pharmaceutical industry frequently and reliably OPPOSES successful antivirals, when they can’t make money off them. The industry wants NEW antivirals they can patent, and they are willing to DEFAME and DENY old antivirals, even SUPERIOR and SAFER antivirals, just to create a market for new ones.
New antivirals that may be CRAP, and dangerous as hell. And they will even LIE to the Commander In Chief about them.
But set the antivirals aside for now, knowing that the situation is corrupt.
Anti-Alzheimer’s drugs are even worse, because THEY JUST DON’T WORK. They’re notorious for not actually working. They’ve never worked. In desperation, the FDA occasionally approves these worthless drugs, if only for investigation, but they are “mercy punts”. The drugs get approved, as long as they don’t show too many side effects, because they are “better than nothing”. But that’s it.
The drugs out there for dementia, senility and Alzheimer’s are WORTHLESS.
A LOT of people thought this was suspicious. I was one of them. Every once in a while, when researchers would reveal just how BAD the next drug actually was – how terrible and limited the results were – I would “go back to my mental drawing board” and ask the question:
“Why don’t these drugs work? Maybe the theory behind them is wrong. What could the truth possibly be?”
HA! I had no idea! No clue!
NOBODY – and I mean nobody – suspected that it was because of FRAUD.
At least, not until recently.
So let’s move on to the fraud in more detail. SCIENCE MAGAZINE.
I am including a long segment which is just the beginning of the article. Please note an important point – the investigator was actually looking at a DIFFERENT fraud in the same field of Alzheimer’s research, when he found this one.
BLOTS ON A FIELD?
A neuroscience image sleuth finds signs of fabrication in scores of Alzheimer’s articles, threatening a reigning theory of the disease
In August 2021, Matthew Schrag, a neuroscientist and physician at Vanderbilt University, got a call that would plunge him into a maelstrom of possible scientific misconduct. A colleague wanted to connect him with an attorney investigating an experimental drug for Alzheimer’s disease called Simufilam. The drug’s developer, Cassava Sciences, claimed it improved cognition, partly by repairing a protein that can block sticky brain deposits of the protein amyloid beta (Aβ), a hallmark of Alzheimer’s. The attorney’s clients—two prominent neuroscientists who are also short sellers who profit if the company’s stock falls—believed some research related to Simufilam may have been “fraudulent,” according to a petition later filed on their behalf with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Schrag, 37, a softspoken, nonchalantly rumpled junior professor, had already gained some notoriety by publicly criticizing the controversial FDA approval of the anti-Aβ drug Aduhelm. His own research also contradicted some of Cassava’s claims. He feared volunteers in ongoing Simufilam trials faced risks of side effects with no chance of benefit.
So he applied his technical and medical knowledge to interrogate published images about the drug and its underlying science—for which the attorney paid him $18,000. He identified apparently altered or duplicated images in dozens of journal articles. The attorney reported many of the discoveries in the FDA petition, and Schrag sent all of them to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), which had invested tens of millions of dollars in the work. (Cassava denies any misconduct [see sidebar, below].)
But Schrag’s sleuthing drew him into a different episode of possible misconduct, leading to findings that threaten one of the most cited Alzheimer’s studies of this century and numerous related experiments.
The first author of that influential study, published in Nature in 2006, was an ascending neuroscientist: Sylvain Lesné of the University of Minnesota (UMN), Twin Cities. His work underpins a key element of the dominant yet controversial amyloid hypothesis of Alzheimer’s, which holds that Aβ clumps, known as plaques, in brain tissue are a primary cause of the devastating illness, which afflicts tens of millions globally. In what looked like a smoking gun for the theory and a lead to possible therapies, Lesné and his colleagues discovered an Aβ subtype and seemed to prove it caused dementia in rats. If Schrag’s doubts are correct, Lesné’s findings were an elaborate mirage.
Schrag, who had not publicly revealed his role as a whistleblower until this article, avoids the word “fraud” in his critiques of Lesné’s work and the Cassava-related studies and does not claim to have proved misconduct. That would require access to original, complete, unpublished images and in some cases raw numerical data. “I focus on what we can see in the published images, and describe them as red flags, not final conclusions,” he says. “The data should speak for itself.”
A 6-month investigation by Science provided strong support for Schrag’s suspicions and raised questions about Lesné’s research. A leading independent image analyst and several top Alzheimer’s researchers—including George Perry of the University of Texas, San Antonio, and John Forsayeth of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF)—reviewed most of Schrag’s findings at Science’s request. They concurred with his overall conclusions, which cast doubt on hundreds of images, including more than 70 in Lesné’s papers. Some look like “shockingly blatant” examples of image tampering, says Donna Wilcock, an Alzheimer’s expert at the University of Kentucky.
The authors “appeared to have composed figures by piecing together parts of photos from different experiments,” says Elisabeth Bik, a molecular biologist and well-known forensic image consultant. “The obtained experimental results might not have been the desired results, and that data might have been changed to … better fit a hypothesis.”
Early this year, Schrag raised his doubts with NIH and journals including Nature; two, including Nature last week, have published expressions of concern about papers by Lesné. Schrag’s work, done independently of Vanderbilt and its medical center, implies millions of federal dollars may have been misspent on the research—and much more on related efforts. Some Alzheimer’s experts now suspect Lesné’s studies have misdirected Alzheimer’s research for 16 years.
“The immediate, obvious damage is wasted NIH funding and wasted thinking in the field because people are using these results as a starting point for their own experiments,” says Stanford University neuroscientist Thomas Südhof, a Nobel laureate and expert on Alzheimer’s and related conditions.
Lesné did not respond to requests for comment. A UMN spokesperson says the university is reviewing complaints about his work.
To Schrag, the two disputed threads of Aβ research raise far-reaching questions about scientific integrity in the struggle to understand and cure Alzheimer’s. Some adherents of the amyloid hypothesis are too uncritical of work that seems to support it, he says. “Even if misconduct is rare, false ideas inserted into key nodes in our body of scientific knowledge can warp our understanding.”
This article goes deeply into the fraud. It’s a great detective story. It raises a whole bunch of tangential issues.
For starters, the fact that you are even hearing about this is because the investigator (Matthew Schrag) didn’t wait for NIH to do anything – particularly after it AWARDED MORE MONEY TO THE FRAUDSTER.
Yes – you got that right.
He [Lesné] became a leader of UMN’s neuroscience graduate program in 2020, and in May 2022, 4 months after Schrag delivered his concerns to NIH, Lesné received a coveted R01 grant from the agency, with up to 5 years of support. The NIH program officer for the grant, Austin Yang—a co-author on the 2006 Nature paper—declined to comment.
Notice how the “revolving door” nature of the science is on display. “Insiders” who are buddies with and coworkers of “outsiders”, give those outsiders the precious grants.
However, Schrag was not caught with his pants down by NIH “Comeyism” (failure to discipline friends). Schrag had also taken his evidence to Science magazine. SMART MOVE. But then, it appears that Schrag was raised by Mennonites, home-schooled, and in the military. Interesting.
More from the Science article:
IN HIS WHISTLEBLOWER REPORT to NIH about Lesné’s research, Schrag made its scope and stakes clear: “[This] dossier is a fraction of the anomalies easily visible on review of the publicly accessible data,” he wrote. The suspect work “not only represents a substantial investment in [NIH] research support, but has been cited … thousands of times and thus has the potential to mislead an entire field of research.”
The agency’s reply, which Schrag shared with Science, noted that complaints deemed credible will go to the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Research Integrity (ORI) for review. That agency could then instruct grantee universities to investigate prior to a final ORI review, a process that can take years and remains confidential absent an official misconduct finding. To Science, NIH said it takes research misconduct seriously, but otherwise declined to comment.
See how that works? Seriously – you CANNOT trust NIH, any more than you can trust Anthony Fauci.
NOW – things are starting to get interesting as all this news is hitting the mainstream media.
Gil00 brought me a link, in which the most famous coworker of the fraudster, Karen Ashe, finally responded to inquiries. Meanwhile, the fraudster has remained silent publicly. NOTE that in Schrag’s investigation (see below), Ashe was found innocent. ONLY in papers working with Lesné, were any of Ashe’s papers ever found to contain fraudulent images. Ditto for other authors. Lesné was the nexus of the fraud.
BUT the problem WAS spotted long ago, and yet this knowledge never bubbled up to a level of effectiveness in mainstream science. An early French coworker of Lesné found his images suspect, and refused to work with him after that.
From the Science article:
Questions about Lesné’s work are not new. Cell biologist Denis Vivien, a senior scientist at Caen, co-authored five Lesné papers flagged by Schrag or Bik. Vivien defends the validity of those articles, but says he had reason to be wary of Lesné.
Toward the end of Lesné’s time in France, Vivien says they worked together on a paper for Nature Neuroscience involving Aβ. During final revisions, he saw immunostaining images—in which antibodies detect proteins in tissue samples—that Lesné had provided. They looked dubious to Vivien, and he asked other students to replicate the findings. Their efforts failed. Vivien says he confronted Lesné, who denied wrongdoing. Although Vivien lacked “irrefutable proof” of misconduct, he withdrew the paper before publication “to preserve my scientific integrity,” and broke off all contact with Lesné, he says. “We are never safe from a student who would like to deceive us and we must remain vigilant.”
Schrag spot checked papers by Vivien or Ashe without Lesné. He found no anomalies—suggesting Vivien and Ashe were innocent of misconduct.
SO – what does Karen Ashe have to say?
University of Minnesota scientist responds to fraud allegations in Alzheimer’s research
While defending results, U researcher said it is “devastating” that a colleague might have doctored images.
A senior University of Minnesota scientist said it is “devastating” that a colleague might have doctored images to prop up research, but she defended the authenticity of her groundbreaking work on the origins of Alzheimer’s disease.
Dr. Karen Ashe declined to comment about a U investigation into the veracity of studies led by Sylvain Lesné, a neuroscientist she hired and a rising star in the field of Alzheimer’s research. However, she criticized an article in Science magazine that raised concerns this week about Lesné, because she said it confused and exaggerated the effect the U’s work had on downstream drug development to treat Alzheimer’s-related dementia.
“Having worked for decades to understand the cause of Alzheimer disease, so that better treatments can be found for patients, it is devastating to discover that a co-worker may have misled me and the scientific community through the doctoring of images,” Ashe said in an e-mail Friday morning. “It is, however, additionally distressing to find that a major scientific journal has flagrantly misrepresented the implications of my work.”
I’m undecided about this lady. This is a bit of a tangent, but it may be significant.
I trust her to some extent, based on the fact that Schrag found Ashe’s work CLEAN when it was NOT associated with Lesné. In my opinion she’s innocent.
AND YET, Ashe’s background is PERFECT for a two-stepper ChiCom, potentially brought to America as the child of secret socialist sleepers. [NOTE: “Two-steppers” are basically bi-generational spy families, with extreme cover used on the parents to throw off suspicions on the second generation as plants.] Ashe’s background – similar to that of the notorious Vindman twins, is also almost identical to several classic Chinese two-steppers in American media and politics, including relentless Trump character assassin, Weijia Jiang.
Video: Disenguous, pathetic stuff from @CBSNews's @Weijia Jiang, questioning the President's testing motives as suppressing them so as to tamp down case numbers and death tolls and then suggest he's playing politics with reopening state economies while Democratic governors aren't pic.twitter.com/acjiINrXxX
Video: @CBSNews's @Weijia Jiang came back for round two, bashing Trump for talking about testing like it's a "global competition" when so many are dying. Trump replies that she should ask China that question. So the media want Trump to ramp up testing, then hit him when he does?! pic.twitter.com/YYF13b3JrS
And don’t think this is just aimed at Karen Ashe – that I’m just blaming the innocent victim, which she may very well be. Let’s look at Sylvain Lesné. Let’s do a deep dive on the possibility that he was intentionally sabotaging science for more than just personal advancement.
This is just a theory to add to the pile of theories. But it’s a very intriguing theory, with enormous consequences, like – oh, say – “climate change”.
French communists, both agrarian and urban, are THICK in Normandy – where Sylvain Lesné grew up and went to university. The urban centers of Caen, Le Havre, and Rouen are communist strongholds.
You can see that Caen leans even further to the left than “worker’s paradise” Le Havre, where bleak Stalinist architecture rules. The vote against Le Pen was strong in Le Havre, but even stronger in Caen.
There is a reason why communism is persistent in Normandy. Not only is there a regional historical tradition of Jacobin thought – there was aggressive spread of Soviet-style communism to the area by Stalin, both before World War II and afterwards, in the devastation of the Allied liberation.
This was a significant part of the motivation for the Marshall plan – to not let the war feed Stalin’s slow but relentless ambitions, already at work in post-war France.
We already know that French “above-ground” communist Agnès Buzyn, who is weirdly allied with “conservative” Emmanuel Macron, was indicted for a plethora of COVID-19 “mistakes”, in which she seemed to aggressively “do the wrong thing” as COVID-19 began spreading into France.
We here in America are more familiar with one of these aggressive scientific mistakes – the “hiding” of hydroxychloroquine from the public by changing it from OTC to prescription only. (Please note that this “error” was at the bottom of the list, and is not even mentioned around the time of the indictment, which focused more on Buzyn’s downplaying of COVID dangers.)
Now – it’s very instructive to see how the French media (particularly the left-media, but all of it, really) has aggressively covered up for Buzyn on this point, with “fact-checking” in the Snopes style, where there are both clickbait strawmen and evasion on technicalities.
While the FORMAL reclassification of the drug HCQ from OTC to prescription occurred in January of 2020, which would make it seem more vindictive against Didier Raoult, and reactive against the treatment of the disease, that was merely the date of the effective reclassification.
The connection to Didier Raoult is a bit of a red herring, provided largely by his fan base. That is a typical irony useful to disinformation.
It turns out that the reclassification action itself took place in November of 2019. This point is then alleged by the fact-checkers to prove Buzyn’s “innocence”. As we now know, the deepest players in the COVID scam KNOWINGLY took many actions in September, October, and November of 2019.
Thus, in my opinion, these “fact checks” attempting to exonerate Buzyn’s scientific misconduct are in fact even more indicting, and indicative of her premeditated criminality.
Thus, if an analogous theory is correct, that Sylvain Lesné was intending to prop up bad science for more than just his own advancement, then there must be some VALUE in doing so.
Gil00 provided a possible answer to this – in thinking that perhaps there was an immunological connection to the scandal. THAT jumped out at me like a red flag. An immunity connection in Alzheimer’s is not only a known competitor of the beta amyloid theory – it fits in with my recent belief that the entire depopulation plot is connected to and being implemented through a very intentional and surreptitious set of actions leading to a decrease of individual human immunity, to make us EACH more vulnerable.
Thus, Lesné’s actions, which sent the majority of Alzheimer’s research down a primrose path to nowhere, may have been a DIVERSION away from the immunological origins of Alzheimer’s disease.
You know – an origin such as VACCINES.
Yes. Timing is everything.
NOW – even if Ashe and Lesné are completely innocent (and that would include brainwashing by communists), I think this is an EXCELLENT time to look at Alzheimer’s AGAIN, as a potential product of things like viruses and vaccines, which we KNOW can have neurological effects.
Yes. Vaccines which “go wrong” can affect the BRAIN through autoimmune actions.
Just sayin’.
III. Could Global Warming Concern in the Face of an Imminent Mini-Ice Age and an Incipient Full Ice Age Actually be Some Kind of Really Bad Science?
It should now be totally apparent that BAD SCIENCE on a global scale is not just possible – it’s EASY. This is without even bringing in the COVID debacle.
PLANET VULCAN, ANYONE?
You’ve seen it here in part I. BILLIONS of dollars have kept LIES alive and well in pharmaceutical science.
If it pays everybody to tell people there is a chemical imbalance that means they need a drug, it will be done, to sell the drug, or to tell the patient that there is hope. The bad information will be forwarded to doctors, and then to patients, to make those patients feel OK taking the drug. Eventually, it just becomes part of Fake Normal.
Consider (part II) that even a single author on a single scientific paper, followed by a few more images from that author on maybe a few dozen more papers, carrying subtle but convincing false evidence, can send BILLIONS of dollars, maybe tens or hundreds of billions of dollars, down a blind alley.
Not only that – the system will try to keep that money flowing in the same way, even when it is KNOWN by government bureaucrats to be based on faulty data.
Is it impossible that this kind of ERROR could extend to TRILLIONS of dollars?
I mean, who would actually WANT trillions of dollars?
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) were joined by Democratic lawmakers from both the House and Senate on February 7, 2019, to introduce Green New Deal legislation.
There is NOTHING in “anthropogenic global warming” or “climate change”, explained by the current theories, that cannot be explained equally well by the idea that a carbon dioxide prediction boondoggle (remember COVID models?) has occurred, as the result of BAD SCIENCE.
Indeed, the multiple and long-running FAILURES of the climate field would seem to this “poor” scientist to be rather similar to the FAILURES in anti-Alzheimer’s drugs. This kind of failure SHOULD point to severe theoretical problems in any NORMAL science situation, once freed from TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS of bad economic bets by politicians and financiers.
I remember – PERSONALLY – when we scientists were told by the leadership of the American Chemical Society that “anthropogenic global warming” was “settled science”. I knew MANY scientists in all branches of science – who were all SCIENTIFICALLY AFFECTED by this idea – who were still very actively debating the topic – and who like me were not convinced of AGW being real, true, or important, even if it did exist. The entire enterprise seemed HASTY and WRONG.
It seemed TOP-DOWN. It seemed IMPOSED. It seemed to contradict everything we knew about how science was supposed to operate – with major ideas normally taking YEARS if not DECADES of FIGHTING INSIDE SCIENCE to become crystal clear.
And OH YES – we had TIME.
SO – after reading about these two incidents of WRONG science being perpetuated by industry or academia, both knowingly and unknowingly, I do NOT think that “climate change” should be granted a pass.
I think the whole question of climate needs to “go back to the people”. That includes both SCIENTISTS who tell us WHAT IS FOUND, and THE PEOPLE who tell us WHAT MATTERS, once we find the truth.
Everybody else – the money, the media, the “leaders”, the shills, and the malevolent liars – need to get out of the way.
In particular, the MEDIA that pushes scientists’ opinions around with their “fake normal” and “fake science news” needs to STFU.
Don’t “trust the science”.
LET SCIENCE DISTRUST ITSELF.
And maybe, in fact definitely, YOU THE PEOPLE can help US, THE SCIENTISTS to DISTRUST SCIENCE……
In my opinion, everybody needs to watch this video, to understand the viral nature of what is then easily seen as the trans identity error, and how it spreads.
This is a complex subject, but at its foundation is (in my opinion) a very simple, almost child-like error – that a “desired non-self” can be obtained against the will of the universe by changing the self into that non-self. You will see how internet image memes were consciously used to promote and spread this error.
The internet has promoted this kind of immature thinking in many ways, as a byproduct of both the viral-enhancing and spiritual-enabling nature of the internet. At the same time that the internet allows us to reach every human mind, in principle, it also allows new kinds of error to flow and to grow. The spiritual nature of the internet, for good and bad, is REAL.
For every Duchess meme, spreading the Good News which allows us to appreciate what we have and what we will have, there are antithetical memes and meme-spreaders who seek to make us envy the very objects of our desire, and then to attempt to falsely become those things.
Listen carefully to understand that Facebook is seeking to create a future where this kind of error is even more possible, more likely, and more difficult to avoid. Instead of becoming stronger, spiritually, to contain actual error, Facebook, under election criminal Mark Zuckerberg, creates a new world of even more error, which can deceive even more strongly.
This young lady is one of the most articulate and insightful people I’ve ever heard. Clearly she would have been a “win” for the other side. As it is now, she exposes the trans error at levels I never expected.

It’s ironic that Joe Biden ran as the “no malarky” candidate since the unmitigated, senseless tosh that spews from his mouth is undecipherable.
There is a reason that the Bidenistas and Bidenazis are worriedfreaking out.
Trump correctly predicted – as with all his well-aging tweets, that a Joe Biden win would be an absolute economic disaster for the United States.
Yes – the BIDEN DEPRESSION.
Don’t think it’s coming? THINK AGAIN.
And this time, in COLOR.
All the “meta” re-orgs in the WORLD cannot stop what is coming to the stupid assholes who threw the election, and condemned the entire planet in doing so.
There’s a REASON that the Bidenistas had to call in their media allies for an emergency economic pow-wow. The Bidenistas know the BIDEN DEPRESSION cannot be stopped. All they can do is LIE about it – and hope that the Bidenazis don’t force them into a new arrangement to limit the damage to THEIR end of the swamp.
Trump says Biden’s coronavirus policies would cause ‘crippling, long-lasting depression’
Thomas Barrabi August 13, 2020
President Trump said Thursday that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s “defeatist” approach to addressing the coronavirus pandemic would result in long-term damage to a U.S. economy that is already showing signs of recovery.
Trump warned against further lockdowns shortly after the U.S. Department of Labor announced that unemployment claims had dropped below one million last week for the first time since the pandemic brought the economy to a near-complete halt in March. The president claimed that Biden “rejects the scientific approach in favor of locking all Americans in their basements for months on end.”
“He wants to shut down our economy, close our schools and grind society to a halt,” Trump said during a White House press briefing. “He wants it done by a federal decree. This would lead to a crippling, long-lasting depression.”
And THAT prediction was WITHOUT the terrible, stupid, America-sabotaging vaccine mandate.
“Thank you, REAL PRESIDENT OBAMA!”
Are you prepared for SEVEN MORE YEARS of President Obama?
Sundance is spotting what’s coming, and it’s NOT GOOD.
Yesterday, Sundance came out with THREE economic articles, and you need to read them.
I really recommend reading these articles, which explain THESE TWO GRAPHICS:
My interpretation of this data is NOT GOOD.
In my opinion, this committed folly is a TEXTBOOK RECIPE for DEPRESSION – and in particular, a 1930s socialist economic depression, just like the one FDR forced upon America, and blamed on his ideological opponents, with the help of the leftist media.
I can smell trouble coming from miles away, and I have no hesitation to call it out.
Well, THE WOLF can tell you that things are going to get MUCH WORSE.
YOU – ME – YOUR FRIENDS and NEIGHBORS – everybody needs to PREPARE.
We are not even a year into the Biden PRE-DEPRESSION – which is just the BIDEN RECESSION and BIDEN INFLATION, and we have at least 3 more years of this crap – more likely SEVEN MORE YEARS.
Obama, who is the bad counselor actually running this administration from afar, is careening his pasty white crash-test dummy Joe Biden into every object he can hit with him. It’s SICK FUN for Obama, but you know he’s loving it. Socialist rigor with ZERO responsibility.
And it’s not just going to be economic failure. Expect MILITARY FAILURE as well, to permanently scuttle the Bidenazi military, keeping them subservient forever to the true-believin’ leftist Bidenista overlords.
It is even possible that Obama will be able to do what he could not do, even with McCain’s help – to get our troops into a LOSING engagement with Russia – then make us submit to a humiliating phony settlement that gives Putin and China everything they want.
The Bidenistas, through INTENTIONAL FAILURE, CONTROL OF CIVILIAN GOVERNMENT, and SHADY DEALS WITH FOREIGN POWERS, will always be able to put the Bidenazi CHUMPS in their place as the second-string totalitarians who run this country on occasion by the only way they can – by eking out small 9/11-ish dramatic interregnums between massive communist main acts.
Just observe how the Bidenistas dealt with the Bidenazis in Afghanistan. THAT was a warm-up.
Obama is basically recapitulating the 4-term socialist, FDR. Do the math.
Of course, you never know. The Pentagram could always come up with a different plan that Obama and company can wreck into new and unforeseen outcomes.
Just pray that honest, patriotic Americans can survive 3 to 7 more years of this crap.

This is an extension of our advertising program and will have the same controls and restrictions as our standard ad placements.You may see these Sponsored Posts running on your sites as we expand testing. They may be promoting WordPress.com content, marketing initiatives, or brands.
Longer term, we hope to offer Sponsored Posts to our users as a way to help drive traffic and promote content discovery. For any questions or issues, see our Native Sponsored Posts FAQ.
Whatever they’re up to, it’s not for our good. Please keep your eyes on it.
The most likely sites to be affected are the old WQTH, The U Tree, or our new “backup” Q Tree.
However, even this site might be affected, if the fine print of JetPack usage involves this form of editorial takeover.
Like I said – keep your eyes out for it, and let me know if you see it.
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
Yes, it’s Monday…again.
But it’s okay! We’ll make our way through it.
Free Speech is practiced here at the Q Tree. But please keep it civil. We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.
If you find yourself in a slap fight, we ask that you take it outside to The U Tree…which is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here.
Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.
Please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election:
For your listening enjoyment, I offer this from Phil Rey Gibbons, titled ‘Battle For the Heartland’:
And this from Kevin Graham, titled ‘Lioness’:
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
It sucks and there are new outrages each day.
We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
Joe Biden didn’t win.
I will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wheatie’s Word of the Day:
vaniloquence
Vaniloquence is a noun which means…vain or foolish talk; vain babbling. Vaniloquent is an adjective used to describe such idle, vain and foolish talk.
Used in a sentence:
It is tiresome to hear Leftists spewing their vaniloquent pretentions on the economy, when they obviously don’t know what they’re talking about.
