“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
Notice that I’m not casting too much “blame” at the moment.
Taking the “pro” side here as a devil’s advocate is much more effective as a convincer, that the devil really is in the details.
And I’m tellin’ ya – THIS SHIT WORKS.
I mean, let me pretend to be a “depopper” here, albeit a rather stupid and unethical one, because there are much better ways – in all possible meanings of “better” – to reduce population.
But if I’m “that guy” for a moment…….
……then THIS SHIT IS AWESOME!!! And it WORKS LIKE CRAZY!!!
OK, back to “real Wolf”. For a little while.
We have the ultimate wheat/chaff sorter now.
If ANYBODY continues with the mandates, then they’re no good, and are worthy of immediate removal from power. Anybody who cared about the data in hand would stop the mandates.
If they don’t care, and push on, then it’s because they care about something else.
If they halt the mandates, there is redemption.
But if they don’t, then there is revolution and correction.
It’s THAT simple.
Let me explain.
1. The Entirely Predictable Population Effect of Nelsonian Bad Vaccines
Linda brought in a link to a STUNNED Gateway Pundit article, which links to a STUNNED Alex Berenson post, which links to STUNNING data from the UK Ministry of health.
Please click the GP and Berenson links at the very least. Those links will explain it fully.
Now – HERE is the data that matters, in an EASY-TO-READ GRAPH.
What you are seeing here is that DEATH RATE among the vaccinated (ages 10-59 – NO ELDERLY – very important) ROSE RAPIDLY with the number of people vaccinated, until it was OVER TWICE as much as deaths among the unvaccinated – then slightly declined – slowly – to slightly UNDER twice the rate of deaths among the unvaccinated.
It’s not CAUSE, but it’s a CORRELATION THAT MATTERS.
The obvious argument that the other side will make here is that “people likely to die take the vaccine” – that it’s a self-selected group.
Well, let that argument be fought out, fair and square. There are many good ways to prove or at least implicate causation by vaccination, but I leave those as exercises.
But even if we accept that still very arguable premise, that dying people chose the vaccine, and don’t counter it by one of NUMEROUS arguments, then at the very least, the vaccine doesn’t seem to be making a huge difference in their greater likelihood of death. They’re still dying. If the vaccines we have now aren’t BAD, they’re at the very least something of a failure.
And the bottom line is STILL this.
For whatever reasons, and it doesn’t really matter which ones, in the aggregate, if you’re 10-59 and you’re vaccinated, you are more likely to die – about twice as likely – as somebody who doesn’t vaccinate.
Now, in MY opinion, that LONG DECLINE in the red VACCINATED line after it rises and FLIPS its relationship with the blue UNVACCINATED line, is very likely due to LEGITIMATE VACCINE HESITANCY.
When people started being vaccinated in great numbers, and then dying at a noticeably higher rate than the unvaccinated (LOOK at that PEAK), there was LEGITIMATE HESITANCY. People who SHOULDN’T get the vaccine, DIDN’T get the vaccine.
Do you see what I keep saying? Vaccine hesitancy is a METRIC OF SUCCESS OR FAILURE. It is not something you bargain with directly, IF YOU’RE HONEST.
Now, if you’re Rochelle Walensky or Anthony Fauci or Bill Gates, you claim that vaccine hesitancy is “bad”, but that’s silly. Vaccine hesitancy is a METRIC, and a metric is a metric. It is neither bad nor good, other than whether it’s bad or good as the metric it claims to be.
Hell – look at those results. If I’m right, VACCINE HESITANCY SAVED LIVES.
Unlike CDC and NIAID, which agencies continue to LIE and OBFUSCATE.
Now – you can see in the graph that this relationship has been known for MONTHS. But nobody has bothered to say that vaccine mandates, in light of that data, would appear to be a terrible idea, because if we’re WRONG about the “death group” being self-selected by anything OTHER than the fact that they took the vaccines, then……
…..DRUMROLL…..
…..OMG – IT’S THE VACCINES!!!
SO – until we know – we REALLY don’t need to be giving this vaccine to kids. WHILE it appears that the vaccine may be a health risk to those who don’t need it – AND KIDS DON’T NEED IT – there is no reason to BURN THAT CONTROL GROUP. And worse than that, there are all kinds of cost-benefit analyses that say giving the vaccine to kids is a BAD DEAL.
I would go further and state that the vaccines themselves appear not to be a good idea for ANYBODY, but I’m willing to accept the proposition that “generally life-shortening vaccines that are beneficial for SOME PEOPLE deserve to exist, for the benefit of THOSE PEOPLE.”
But yet, people like the Napoleon of AIDS continue to pretend like nothing is wrong.
There is a WONDERFUL article by a WONDERFUL SKEPTIC – “The Ethical Skeptic” – a guy who doesn’t see the world exactly like I do – but who STILL hits the nail on the head about DECEPTION – BOTH OF SELF AND OF OTHER – which I find very useful. This person loves to point out all the ways people can be DISHONESTLY SKEPTICAL, or, alternatively, DISINGENUOUSLY IGNORANT.
Fauci is just RIGHT up this guy’s alley.
Here is the article you need to read about CULTIVATED IGNORANCE, STUDIED IGNORANCE, WILLFUL FAKE BLINDNESS, etc. My man TES even jumps on Wikipedia for WRONGLY classifying Nelsonian Knowledge and Nelsonian Inference as forms of Willful Blindness, which they are not.
Once you see what Fauci and Walensky are doing, you can’t unsee it.
Now – let’s try to put this stunning little death statistic into a bigger picture.
2. Why Burning Control Groups is Essential if We Want to Create Artificial Population Control by Administered Disease Genes and Proteins
It’s pretty obvious that people (meaning individuals) don’t like disease, and vaccines are just a kind of “controlled disease” that we administer to ourselves to prevent “worse” disease. Vaccines are basically a way of bargaining with disease.
But do we trust those people to bargain for us?
Well, *I* don’t particularly trust them.
What we have here are people who are dead-set on vaccination as a solution to a problem THEY created. They are even more dead-set on MANDATORY vaccination – something which makes little sense in light of contraindications, which these same people rather remarkably declared DO NOT EXIST for one particular set of vaccines – which are in fact a set of really BAD vaccines, in terms of side effects. These people are rather remarkably unconcerned with the negative effects of those bad vaccines, which more than anything, seem to kill the people they are designed to save.
THAT last point is important, in an “artificial disease population control scheme”.
In other words, in the same way that these people seem to bargain for us in bad faith, they promote vaccines which bargain with disease in bad faith.
And here’s the kicker.
If, perchance, I was one of those people, and I wanted to HIDE our bad bargaining, and the bad bargain of the vaccines themselves, then one way to do it would be to insist on CONTROL of all study of the problem, and then – as part of that control – HIDE THE EVIDENCE.
Not to be distracted by the fact that the DOJ has also done this, but yeah.
So let’s take a look at HOW TO BURN CONTROL GROUPS.
The war on the ‘unvaccinated’ is a desperate attempt to demonize and destroy the control group
This gem of an article reminds us – in THEIR OWN WORDS – just how much we have been GASLIT by the “people in charge” about things, but more than that, this article explains why there has been such a push to get everybody vaccinated.
THAT – my friends – is not only how they get rid of the EVIDENCE – it’s how they get rid of the WITNESSES.
Once WE AS A WHOLE can’t really say if “natural immunity” would have been better, the ENTIRE WORLD ends up being “shanghaied” on a glorious communist voyage to HELL, where we trust our immunity, our lack of immunity, our side effects that they just deny, and our LITERAL POPULATION itself, to strangers who jab needles we don’t understand into our arms.
And THIS, under a system that controls our speech.
Sorry, I don’t like that deal.
So – now we get to the horrifying Part 3.
Seatbelts.
3. Let’s Make The Current Vaccines Even Better at Controlling Population
This is “facetious / not facetious”. I’m going to seriously address the problem, based on the excellent results reported by the UK, home of George Orwell. But no, I don’t actually like it. But I’m going to pretend a certain cheerful amorality for “effect”, as I take this where it’s all CLEARLY going.
OK???!!! AWESOME!!! *smiley*
Start with the current graph:
First of all, these are not the people that WE THE SOCIALISTS [ remember – I’m pretending – but I’m REALLY trying to be like them! ] want to eliminate. As socialists, we want to eliminate mostly older people, particularly those who no longer contribute as WE see fit, but not party members, or those who benefit the party. SO – unless the disease is showing such selectivity (see below), we need to have either vaccines which show the desired selectivity, or different vaccines for different people.
Thus, I’m only going to talk about the vaccines that lower life expectancy, NOT those that raise it. Assume that these excellent longevity-increasing vaccines WILL be available to party members.
We can derive a much better rate of death increase than a mere double of the unvaccinated rate, which has been obtained with the current vaccines. However, everybody has to be vaccinated, to hide what we’re doing. Again, some people will just get placebos, to maintain a secret control group, but there don’t have to be too many of them. Not enough that people notice. The controls will appear to be random people in the middle, somewhat more healthy than most, but not too healthy, helping to hide the healthy party members who get longevity-enhancing vaccines.
The disease we’re starting with is already rather remarkable in primarily killing people over 60 years old.
This was quality American/Chinese work, but we can do better!
If the disease itself can be crafted to be more deadly at 70+, and less so at 50-69, primarily by increasing lethality toward existing conditions which appear exclusively at advanced age, the curve will better approximate a step function that eliminates the costs of pensioners. It’s already really good, but making it too deadly too fast risks senior party members, even with “good” vaccines for those members.
So what is the solution?
Now – here is where vaccines make this even more efficient.
Removing MOSTLY old people gets the world population down SOMEWHAT, but there has to be a generally higher mortality of ALL AGE GROUPS until the population is balanced where the party wants it.
Thus, we can RAISE the mortality by the virus somewhat, but that is only an interim solution, until vaccines allow control down to the individual level.
Once worldwide compulsory vaccination is achieved, population reduction can focus on the individuals least compliant with and least amenable to socialism. They can be removed as quickly as feasible, making room for more compliant and useful individuals.
When vaccines are basically “the disease” – such as the current spike protein vaccines – then individuals will be unable to discern that their elimination is intentional. They can be told they have the disease, or the after-affects thereof, without evidence.
“Stubborn” individuals, where correction fails, can be removed quickly, using vaccines. Actual disease simply doesn’t allow that level of precision social control.
Based on compliance of current scientists, who depend on the state and the party to remain active in science, it is very unlikely that there will be objection to population control measures at that level. As long as no single individual knows too much, it is unlikely that understanding of population control will interfere with the process.
The KEY is universal mandatory vaccination, controlled by the state and the party. It’s the fastest and most assured route to a pure and permanent socialist state.
Or did Dodge-and-Fib arrange the drama, as with the National School Board rogue Democrats?
mood music:
If you’ve been following the machinations of the DOJ-FBI-KGB-SS during the major distraction of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, then you already know that DOJ-FBI sent their first school board jack-boots after a “super-mom” in Colorado, under the pretext of “domestic terrorism”.
The reality is that this woman – who knows county clerk Tina Peters of Dominion whistle-blower fame – has been very effective in Colorado politics, particularly against the CRT-SEL scam which enriches A.G. Merrick “Kapo” Garland’s family business of undermining American society toward some race-nutty Democrat Bolshevik “utopia” based on permanent animosity between blacks and “selectively defined whites”.
Yeah, let me repeat that, for the sake of the clarity of their camouflage. We’re talking about the “I’m not white, I’m Jewish” scam. Whatever.
Let’s ignore the Obama Third Term’s sick mind-frack. Bolsheviks – of all former religions and perpetually aggrieved races – even against their own – no longer define reality for the majority of Americans. We are ON to their games. And the reality on the ground is this. “Kapo” Garland is moving on from merely imprisoning “January Sixers” to going after America’s highly effective and grass-roots-winning “Super-Moms”.
Isn’t that just HITLER? Go after the civilians. Go after the women and children. FRANCE remembers.
What a P.O.S. that man is. Almost as bad as his Fuehrer, Obama.
If you think they’re never coming for YOU, you are sorely mistaken. Whatever it is, on their bucket list of neo-Soviet globalist fascist tyranny, they’re going after it. And YOU are in the way.
FIRST Kapo came for the Trump election protesters. The SICK TRICK of the BUFFALO JUMP.
THEN Kapo came for the super-moms.
So WHO is NEXT?
I think it’s US – the TRUE JOURNALISTS AND SCIENTISTS FIGHTING THE COVID GRIFT.
I think it’s people like Alex Berenson, FLCCC doctors, Karl Denninger, Peter McCullough, Steve Kirsch, and anybody else – ME INCLUDED – and Sundance, too – anybody who is now acting as a REAL JOURNALIST or a REAL SCIENTIST, when the CORPORATE FAKE MEDIA and PAID-OFF SCIENCE are all failing terribly to DO THEIR DUTIES.
Why do I think this?
THIRD TIME IS A CHARM.
Yes, there was some GROUNDWORK laid for this stuff, when KGB-FBI went after Simone Gold with the usual 20 guns media psy-op.
This is a HEADS UP to all authentic American patriots about our phony globo-nazi “friends” in DOJ and FBI, otherwise known as “Dodge” and “FIB”. Let me give you the TL;DR right here. The Bidenistas and Bidenazis are going to try to GO CANADA during however long they remain in power. “FIB” is going to …
However, I have now seen THREE calls for us “dissident scientists and journalists” to be rounded up.
Let’s take a look at them.
1. Prof. Peter Hotez, Vaccine Expert
The first bizarre play in this little game was an establishment vaccine scientist, Dr. Peter Hotez, coming up with a whacky sound-bite by proposing that people who criticized Anthony Fauci needed to be arrested.
This guy is normally pretty level-headed, and I used to quote him all the time on vaccine science.
But YES, he not only SAID it – he tweeted about it, and wrote a column.
Just out today, my latest in @PLOS@PLOSBiology discussing my perspective on a new phase of antiscience aggression in America: Targeting prominent US scientists, and why we should be concerned for the nation. https://t.co/LKriiz1C0a
— Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD (@PeterHotez) July 30, 2021
Yeah, let’s just save that sucker before Twitter deletes it or the dude closes his account. Or when Fauci is finally brought to justice, Hotez will likely claim he never said this, and will delete the tweet.
Of course, this seemed pretty hilarious to everybody at the time. But I now think it was predictive programming served up for the progzis at Dodge and Fib.
Roughly six months before needed. Yup. They were getting out ahead of us.
We were actually rather lucky, in that Hotez fired off this crap before all the PROOF broke that – Yes, Virginia – all of Hotez’s earnestly defended buddies really did perform gain-of-function experiments in China, and they KNEW IT.
Hotez looked pretty dorky after that. Rand Paul had a field day.
BUT WAIT – THERE’S MORE!
2. Albert Bourla, Pfizer CEO
The second case of somebody on Team Spike Protein calling for “arrests” – although perhaps a bit more discreetly – was Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla.
This guy is a bit of an actor, which I can tell you is a “quality” of some Big Pharma C-level stiffs – at least from my limited number of interactions with them. They will gladly and openly run scripted con games as a form of business dealings. I kid you not. I was shocked the first time I ran into it. And indeed, Bourla already engaged in a kind of patent medicine shill act with Israel, when he was “not allowed to come” because he wasn’t “fully vaccinated”.
Oy vey. THE CRINGE. Stage left!
Such a hammy operation. We used to fall for this stuff. But no more.
Bear in mind that Israel and Pfizer cut a HUGE deal, and were BEST OF CHUMS when it was done.
Whatever. As long as Israel minds it’s own business……..
Yeah. I know. “Allies.”
Anyway, Bourla has really been feeling the heat from all sides, so he decided the smart thing to do was to label us – the “purveyors of misinformation” – as “criminals”.
Notice that this was done in conjunction with that nasty globonazi “Atlantic Council”, who already partnered onto a thousand LIES. FIGURES.
Here is the video:
Again, this seemed like stupid bait for a lot of bad press.
But these people are not stupid. Trust me.
So we have a voice from ACADEMIA, and a voice from INDUSTRY, both BEGGING Kapo to do something.
Who do they need NEXT?
Ah, yes. GOVERNMENT.
3. NIH Director Francis Collins
This was the one where I invoked the “James Bond rule” and said – OK – this makes three of them – we’re looking at “enemy action”.
Don’t mistake the crafty Drax for NIH Director Francis Collins. Collins is one of the best FRONTS that Obama ever had. Collins was crafted by the Clinton and Obama administrations into “The old Christian scientist that the rubes will trust.” I was never quite sure WHY Francis Collins was not merely tolerated by Obama and company, but seemingly showcased. Well, by now, in the THIRD OBAMA TERM, it’s very clear.
In the same way that goofball James Clapper served as a kind of “useful idiot” in DNI, Collins served as a “useful befuddled genius” in NIH, to chill any suspicions of nasty goings-on in the now-communized sci-med-bio complex.
It is VERY instructive to read the Wikipedia entry for Francis Collins. The thing that will jog your memory is the word “ethics”. Yes. Remember when this guy was pure as the driven snow? We TRUSTED him.
This was the primary reason for the communists, globalists, and Third Way fascists having Collins as a facade for the various scammy goings-on that have plagued American science, mostly during and after the Obama administration, where it all got “set up” for the big 2020 scamapalooza.
I could spend a lot of time going back and showcasing all the good things Francis Collins did over his long career, and they are considerable, but quite frankly, the Fake News Media has done an excellent job of that. I defer to them.
It’s the other stuff – all the stuff that the corporate fake news STUDIOUSLY IGNORED, that I – most unfortunately – need to detail for you.
Francis Collins apparently “misspoke” in denying that people under him were funding viral gain-of-function (GOF) research in China. Whether or not that is connected to his resignation, the fact remains – Collins announced his resignation / retirement in early October – shortly after his “misstatements” were made public.
A bit of a sad end to Collins’ illustrious career. I like to think that, somewhere behind the scenes, on the way to submitting his resignation, Collins told his “handlers” and “superiors” to go jump in a lake – that he was no longer going to cover for them.
PFFFFFFT!
Dream on, idiot Wolf. The noble science you signed up for never existed.
Yeah, I’m a CHUMP SUPREME on that one, because on his way out the door, what does Collins do?
Well, they can lock us out of The Q Tree, but they can’t stop the truth from getting out. Enjoy a post first over on The U Tree and now HERE. Here is a quickie in my WAR ON REMDESIVIR. Fellow Treeper barkerjim dropped an interesting document today, from back in July, which showed the …
There are plenty of links in that reference, and in those references, too, for anybody who WANTS to see if remdesivir might be toxic, to LOOK FOR THEMSELVES.
Better to look for yourself, Francis, than to trust a guy like Fauci.
This is where having a nice old doufus like Francis Collins pays off for Team Obama. The man is a sitting duck for the “Nazis of Nice”, as I like to call them. Collins was oblivious to his own mistake of trusting sneaky, crafty, sketchy guys like Anthony Fauci.
Collins is not alone there. Franklin Graham is another great example.
Pushed the vaccine, and got pericarditis from it – never said a word of consideration that this was straight out of the vaccine risks he has pushed aside. I suspect that the thought never occurred to him that maybe he was wrong – but if it did, he must have decided to go along with the CDC “white lie” of “vaccine hesitancy must by stopped at all costs” – CLEARLY A DEVIL’S DEAL, when MANDATES and CDC LIES rule the day – to say nothing of the lay-person-obvious “no contraindications to the vaccine” fallacy.
Come on, Frankie. WAKE UP. You’re in STALINVILLE now. THEY JUST LIE.
Anthony Fauci and Rochelle Walensky have made fools of us all, by taking vaccine hesitancy – a METRIC of vaccine success or failure – and turning it into an ANATHEMA to be fought by all means possible – even the grandest of dishonesties.
Yes – PINTO hesitancy was bad. We really should have fought that, too.
Yes – AIDS hesitancy was bad. And I guess we did fight that, using gay pride in schools.
See how it works?
A GRIFT fit for a KING.
And the MARKS and SUCKERS who line up for it, are born every minute.
OK, people. It is time for THE WOLF to GET PATTON ON YOUR ASSES.
As you may know, we now have many of our dear members actively fighting COVID-19, including one (gil00) in the hospital. Several have received Regeneron. Thus far, praise God, we have not lost anybody – and I intend to keep it that way.
For updates on the health of our members, we now have a dedicated thread, listed at the top of the sidebar. Feel free to record information there, including LINKS to comments from sick members in the daily threads.
This is a new thread for QTreepers with health issues of ANY kind to keep us updated. I have absolutely no problem with people posting HERE, on the OPEN THREADS, or BOTH. You do what is right for you. We’re here for YOU. I want people to post wherever they feel most comfortable. I also …
We have also covered a specific case of ivermectin, used to treat COVID-19, with FANTASTIC RESULTS.
This is a great selfie video, done by a young lady with a glorious Southern accent, chronicling her week of COVID-19 and recovery, treated with ivermectin. It’s short – just under 7 minutes – but it captures a lot of information about symptoms and relief by the drug. I can’t embed the video here due …
We have had many, many, many discussions of how to obtain ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine – now for over a year.
MANY of our members have gotten a hold of one, two, or even THREE OR MORE forms or versions of drugs used to treat COVID-19. When I say that people have STASHES, I mean it. They have STASHES.
So the problem is not that people don’t have the means to treat or prevent the disease.
The problem is that people don’t ALWAYS have the WILL to begin treatment EARLY.
TREATING EARLY was GOD’S GIFT TO US through Doctor Zelenko. This MAN OF GOD realized that the most important way to fight COVID was to hit it EARLY and COMPREHENSIVELY.
At that time, hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, and zinc was the best combination.
Now, we realize that ivermectin can augment or substitute for hydroxychloroquine. We also understand that VITAMIN D is critical.
We further understand that simple antihistamines such as zyrtec, loratadine, and others can almost completely eliminate the deadly late phase complications of COVID-19 infection.
Everybody underestimates Spain. The last letter in “PIGS” is far less of an insult than an error. Years ago, when I was at a conference, and Japanese industrial spies were getting me drunk (it was a great red wine), I decided that I had to give them SOMETHING for their time and effort, if only …
SO – I am not going to recap any of that stuff. Likewise, I am not going to re-justify the use of ivermectin, and its GREAT results in India, Indonesia, Japan, Brazil, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and everywhere ELSE that is out of the reach of the Branch Covidian propaganda machine.
Instead, I want to do these things:
I want to make sure that everybody here:
HAS A PLAN
HAS ANTIGEN TEST KITS TO BEGIN THEIR PLAN
HAS A STASH THAT SUPPORTS THEIR PLAN
HAS ADVOCATES WHO WILL ASSIST THEIR PLAN
HAS HOSPITAL COMMS TO THIS SITE TO UPHOLD THEIR PLAN
HAS THE *WILL* TO WITHOUT HESITATION START THEIR PLAN
HAS THE *TRAINING* TO FEEL CONFIDENT IN THEIR PLAN
Are you all with me?
TRAINING is key. You are going to assemble a plan and then you are going to TRAIN FOR IT.
Some of this is going to involve helping you understand what COULD be in your stash, and what SHOULD be in your stash.
Now – this is a moving target, and I will be changing and updating the information that follows.
But right now, the MINIMUM that should be in your stash, should be vitamin D and zinc supplements, to prevent COVID-19. Next, you need OTC antihistamines – see the above post.
This is the BARE MINIMUM to save your life. If you have adequate Vitamin D and adequate zinc, and are deficient in neither, then you are VERY unlikely to die from COVID-19.
If you take antihistamines, and you take them IMMEDIATELY or even PREVENTATIVELY, you are even LESS LIKELY TO DIE.
If you have these things, and the WILL to take some of them as needed BEFORE you get COVID, and the WILL to take the others as needed IMMEDIATELY when you think or KNOW that you have COVID-19, you can almost guarantee that you will NOT DIE.
If you want to go further, you need to get ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine.
If you want to strike with maximum efficiency, so that you can take the drugs you need IMMEDIATELY, you also need antigen tests.
These are available from your local pharmacy now, or by mail order.
I will compile a list of URLs here, as an appendix, for you to get these things.
But right now, the main thing I want to do, is to DEBRIEF each of you on your stash and your level of preparation. Then, in the comments, we are going to TRAIN EACH OTHER on preparation and RAPID DEPLOYMENT at the first sign of COVID-19.
So JOIN ME in the comments, and TELL ME (as much as you feel comfortable doing) about your STASH, but FAR MORE IMPORTANTLY….
TELL ME ABOUT YOUR PLAN.
Those of you who have fought or ARE fighting COVID right now, are welcome to TELL or RE-TELL what you did, what you didn’t do, and what you wished you had done, or might have done better.
I want to get ALL OF THIS TREATMENT INFORMATION in one place. I will distill out the most important stuff, and put it in the post itself.
You could save a fellow member, and for each of them, you could save 10 lurkers.
DO IT! Who will be first?
W
Appendix – Sources for Therapeutics
I will add entries from comments below. Please help add to this list.
This is a great outfit. They are very professional. You need to be prepared with an email address, a PayPal account, and a phone number for them to discuss what they have and what you need. They are friendly, competent, speak good English, and have reasonable prices.
You need to know in advance exactly what you want and how much of it you want. They will ship immediately. You will have product delivered in as little as 2 weeks, or as many as 6 weeks, thanks to supply chain issues, but you will be able to track your shipment.
They also have azithromycin, hydroxychloroquine, doxycycline, steroids, and others. I do NOT recommend buying anything you are not VERY comfortable using, and which you don’t already know proper dosage and contraindications. Likewise, if you are not comfortable purchasing “global OTC medicines” from suppliers like this, and wish to only obtain medicines with a doctor’s prescription, then please seek those drugs through doctors listed below.
This method is not for sissies. I don’t want to talk you out of it, but you are buying real medicine and treating YOURSELF by general published medical recommendations. If that makes you nervous, then go the doctor route. But remember this.
Hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin can SAVE YOUR LIFE.
Some people feel more comfortable this way. Not a problem if you do. These are quality drugs, suitable for human use.
Veterinary supply companies provide ivermectin as both the injectable form (1%) and the horse paste.
In BOTH cases, you want to take it ORALLY. You do not want to inject it. You just have to use the right amount, because you are not a horse, so you don’t need as much.
The horse paste is probably easier if you are more of a COOK, and the injectable is probably easier if you are more of a LAB RAT. We can work with you either way, to get what you need and to help you understand dosages.
The advantage of using antigen tests, is that you won’t waste your ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine on some cold or weak flu. You will KNOW that you have COVID, and you will be able to take your therapeutic in CONFIDENCE. Thus, if you are AMBIVALENT about taking ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine preventatively, then just wait until you have a positive antigen test, and THEN take the drugs, when you KNOW they will work.
With an antigen test, you can hit COVID on DAY ONE of the clinical infection.
5. Antibody / Regeneron / Lilly / MAb
Use these links to find infusion centers and information on availability.
In my opinion, you can HOPE for these treatments, but (1) there are no guarantees, and (2) you may prove not to be eligible for many reasons, EVEN if you try to get treatment within the first 10 days.
Don’t count on this method, is my advice. But DO make it part of your PLAN!
6. Moxidectin
This is an alternative to ivermectin, which are longer-lasting with completely different dosages. Be VERY careful if you investigate this therapeutic. IMO it is not nearly as well-understood as ivermectin as an antiviral or treatment for long-haul, but it has been clearly demonstrated as effective, IMO. If anybody has information from doctors about safe dosages of moxidectin in humans, please post it!
This is a new thread for QTreepers with health issues of ANY kind to keep us updated. I have absolutely no problem with people posting HERE, on the OPEN THREADS, or BOTH. You do what is right for you. We’re here for YOU.
I want people to post wherever they feel most comfortable. I also want people to get updates in real time. BOTH this thread and the open thread will help accomplish that goal.
The murderous LancetGate Effect is back, and this time it killed thousands before bureaucrats relented and allowed doctors to save patients.
[ Hat Tip to barkerjim for alerting me to this Indonesian case. ]
Part 1 – LancetGate Effect 1.0 and 1.1
Ah, the memories of LancetGate! That moment when “they” “finally” “proved” that hydroxychloroquine didn’t work.
Until – it turned out – they had proved nothing. For when honest people looked at the bogus Surgisphere study, embarrassingly published in The Lancet, they realized that it was absolute horseshit, built on bad data, by people who had no idea what they were doing, other than trying to KILL hydroxychloroquine. Presumably on behalf of Mysterious Unknown Bill Gateses and Nations That Might Be China.
The trouble is, by the time the study was proven to be a bunch of happy horseshit, bureaucrats had eagerly and enthusiastically banned hydroxychloroquine for treatment of COVID-19 in several countries, and tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people worldwide were denied hydroxychloroquine, many of them dying within that typical 14-day window in which COVID-19 kills people.
However, something interesting happened when hydroxychloroquine was banned in Switzerland.
Because the bans of HCQ were all planned and coordinated around the release of the false study, they went into effect almost immediately, with relentless efficiency. It was in some cases immediately impossible for doctors to get hydroxychloroquine.
THAT created a sharpness in the curves.
Fourteen days later, the deaths from COVID-19 began spiking – HARD. Now, people were criticizing the study almost immediately, and within a few weeks, the study was already looking very shaky, as The Lancet started backing down, ultimately leading to retraction.
The Swiss didn’t wait that long to correct their error. They saw the deaths, allowed HCQ back into the hands of doctors, saving the lives of patients, again with GREAT SUDDENNESS, despite the “best wishes” of neo-Nazi KlauSS Schwab and the WEFFEN SS Great Resetters, who needed more dead people – even their own pitiful Davos plebes.
And THIS was the result.
It was a STUNNING little blip in the data.
The result was even more interesting when compared to France, where HCQ was immediately suppressed, thanks to communist bureaucrat Agnes Buzyn, who swiftly made the OTC drug almost unobtainable.
Allow me to explain these graphs.
France starts off worse than Switzerland due to suppression of hydroxychloroquine, and gets even worse as supplies dry up, while Switzerland gets better immediately, with doctors experimenting with treatments based on the earlier research and cutting-edge studies, including both chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine. A stunning indictment of post-Soviet bureaucracy.
So why does France start getting better (going down)? That is the result of research by Prof. Didier Raoult in Marseilles, in the South of France, who quickly got extremely positive results by semi-prophylactic “early treatment” of both the virus and subsequent pneumonia, using a combination of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and azithromycin (AZM), without waiting for positive test results for bacterial infection. This idea of prophylactic antibiotics is KEY to saving lives, and later influenced Dr. Zelenko in America to try a combination of HCQ, AZM, and zinc, given at the first sign of the disease, as an outpatient treatment. Zelenko gets wildly good results, preventing hospitalizations and deaths at nearly 100% level, yet is unable to get organizations like the AMA to acknowledge the treatment.
The problem for Prof. Raoult was that he was immediately vilified by the forces of Big Pharma. Some of it was absolutely stunning. Nevertheless, there was a strong group of “populist” doctors and scientists in France, and also internationally, who supported Raoult, even though the MONEY was clearly against him.
Nonetheless, Raoult was winning the hearts and minds of practitioners in France – particularly in the South of the country, and admirers around the world. And THAT is why the numbers kept getting better.
One of my favorite French memes…..
And then LANCETGATE happened, as you can see in the graph.
And then the LancetGate Effect, fully visible when LancetGate was exposed, and HCQ was allowed back into the physician’s arsenal of salvation.
France was already operating under a “ban” on hydroxychloroquine, and there was considerable pressure on Prof. Raoult, but it did not really get worse for him, or for other doctors using HCQ in spite of the ban, until a few weeks into the LancetGate Effect, where you can see a lesser effect than in Switzerland starting to happen in France, but an upward trend in deaths just the same. But the main point THERE is that the Swiss results ALMOST joined the French results.
Now, one of the confirmations of this was a SIMILAR effect in America.
The scale below is upside-down from above. In this case, UP is GOOD, DOWN is BAD.
Thanks to the WUWT weather and climate guys for finding this little nugget.
If you want to read more about these cases, please click on two old blog posts here which talk about the LancetGate Effect.
The first one talks about the effect itself.
The second involves a huge counteroffensive against all the people who had maligned hydroxychloroquine, in which Dr. Zelenko began collecting all the evidence, before it could be deleted.

You will notice in these old articles that Twitter has now BLOCKED all my tweet threads on the LancetGate Effect, by “suspending” my account. Someday Jack Dorsey will answer for this!
Part 2 – LancetGate Effect 2.0
The following information was nicely captured in TWO articles in The Gateway Pundit.
Note that time has passed between LancetGate Effects 1.0 and 2.0 – the drug of choice for treating COVID-19 is now IVERMECTIN – at high enough doses that it shows a pronounced ANTIVIRAL effect. Fortunately, the antiparasitic drug has such an incredibly high therapeutic margin, it actually has a usable secondary antiviral activity.
Who would have known? THAT is science – and science in service of humanity.
The graph that really explains things is this one.
Now I will immediately tell you that the labeling of the graph is “true but misleading”. It LOOKS like the graph is saying:
“They banned ivermectin on 06/12/21 and the number of cases took off. Then it was approved on 07/15/21 and it dropped again.”
That is NOT the case. That “Ivermectin banned” arrow could just as easily point at the whole line to the left of the July 15th arrow.
The REAL reason for the huge spike is the arrival of the DELTA VARIANT in Indonesia. That hit the previously isolated island country, and the cases took off. AT THAT TIME, ivermectin was still banned, because the Indonesian health ministry was following the advice of WHO, CDC, FDA, and the EU.
BIG MISTAKE.
Here is another look at the data.
You can see how deaths track cases in time. After ivermectin was approved and made widely available, due to the desperation of the authorities, no longer willing to listen to Western Bolshevik and Globalist media propaganda, both reported cases and deaths dropped like a rock.
This is not hard.
Namibia did the same thing, and got great results.
What education are you talking about. In Namibia, Africa we used ivermectin in my hometown. Cases dropped like a rock, same as in india and indonesia. It's clear who the ignorant one is. For god's sake you hold a Phd, act like it!
People in America were simply not prepared to see just how mercenary Big Pharma really is, particularly now that it operates hand-in-glove with the Wokester Bolshevik and Globalist Scum. People in the “third world” are quite familiar with the concept, however. They know that they are barely even numbers to the elite globalists who run the planet – who operate with far more concern for imperial politics than for the people themselves.
Part 3 – Accountability
India has had its own experiences with ivermectin, and as far as India is concerned, ivermectin saved the day there, too.
A different state was not so lucky. They listened to the wrong woman, thereby dropping ivermectin for a while, and many people died.
The problem is, India has its own problem with UN-loving idiot wokesters who value globalist conformity over truth, and it resulted in THOUSANDS OF DEAD.
However, there is also accountability.
Although this has largely been covered up by the globalist media, Indian authorities have decided to prosecute their own “Fauci” for misleading the public on ivermectin, which led to thousands of people dying.
India charges WHO Scientist Soumya Swaminathan: India is a forefront nation in demanding accountability from the WHO, the Indian Bar Association (IBA) now suing WHO Chief Scientist Dr. Soumya Swaminathan.
They are accusing her of causing the deaths of many Indian citizens by misleading them about the effect of Ivermectin, which she stated did not work against Covid-19.
As a result, the use of Ivermectin to cure Covid-19 was stopped and Covid cases exploded with deaths increasing ten-fold.
Point 56 states: “That your misleading tweet on May 10, 2021, against the use of Ivermectin had the effect of the State of Tamil Nadu withdrawing Ivermectin from the protocol on May 11, 2021, just a day after the Tamil Nadu government had indicated the same for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. (Feature photo: WHO Scientist Dr. Soumya Swaminathan)
Specific charges included the running of a disinformation campaign against Ivermectin and issuing statements in social and mainstream media to wrongfully influence the public against the use of Ivermectin despite the existence of large amounts of clinical data showing its profound effectiveness in both prevention and treatment of COVID-19.
In particular, the Indian Bar brief referenced the peer-reviewed publications and evidence compiled by the ten-member Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) group and the 65-member British Ivermectin Recommendation Development (BIRD) panel headed by WHO consultant and meta-analysis expert Dr. Tess Lawrie.”
Will Fauci, Walensky, and “Thalidomide Janet” Woodcock see justice?
Thanks to Grandmaintexas for finding this amazing video, which I am promoting to a post, so that other bloggers and websites might see it and pick it up.
Most of us are familiar with all the elite names, but we really don’t understand even a tiny fraction of how, precisely, they relate to each other.
We don’t understand how their NETWORK operates. Not really.
What’s truly surprising is how simple it all is, when presented clearly.
While the information in this 1-hour video is skeletal, it is essential, core-cutting, and brilliantly presented. It provides a FRAMEWORK that PROVES how the different players in the elite relate to each other.
It’s both FASCINATING and EMPOWERING.
And it’s EXTREMELY Q and “Great Awakening”, and you WILL see why.
Somebody wants you to see this and STAND THE FUCK UP.
You will NEVER, EVER back down when confronted about the Rothschilds or George Soros as “conspiracy theories” after you watch this. You will LAUGH at anybody who tries to pretend these elite scumbags are not key players in the problems we face. You will know HOW they are affecting us, and that it is NOT good.
You will understand WHY they’re doing what they’re doing.
WHY they did what they did on January Sixth.
To call somebody a “Soros D.A.” will mean something – that she’s a SHOE-SHINE GIRL of the elite.
OK, to be honest I had Zero plans to write this post when I woke up “today”. In fact I’d been hoping to take advantage of my solo weekend to wrap up a post or two I’ve had in draft mode for months, but it appears that they’ll have to still wait. My hunters will be home soon…
This journey started out by reading Carl’s beautiful Sunday post.
Being very moved by the teaching he shared I wanted to look up the source material by John Piper AND finally came to a page that appears to contain much, or even all, that Carl shared, here:
In the course of searching for the actual message, & not just other people’s blog posts about Piper’s teaching that was apparently given at some type of conference, a few interesting links popped up. One looked to be addressing how seemingly Piper weighed in on the 2020 election & from the couple lines of text visible at the search may have spoken against Trump. I was curious so went to read that article too.
What a surprise to discover that the article was more about promoting the vax from the pulpit rather than steering people away from Trump during the stolen election. Hmmm
OK, so this post is NOT trying to attack John Piper as a man, a Christian, nor as a theologian. I’m trying to steer clear of my own biases, which is obviously impossible. In reading the search engine thumbnail descriptions it appears that Piper is affiliated with the Baptist church, which makes my “legalism radar” perk up. I’m just being honest, I have issues with legalism that go way back & have a (possibly misplaced) perception that Baptist takes might hover in the legalism domain…so grain of salt going forward here…
Here are a couple places where I’ve addressed legalism, & the other end of the spectrum, the prosperity gospel, for context on some of my thinking in these arenas…
So, back to the issue at hand. I like to think of myself as a Truth-seeker AND a Truth-teller. So let’s see if we can unearth some Truth in the controversy before us, namely shilling for the vax from the pulpit. Whom the Son sets free is Free indeed!
Let’s look into John Knox’s Not The Bee article a bit first. Per his opening remarks he appears to be a Conservative Christian, who is perhaps comfortable with MAGA & Trump’s leadership.
“I’m not here to slander John Piper. He’s a brother-in-Christ and a man who has, by all accounts, picked up his cross daily to preach the hope of Christ and Christ crucified to a broken world.
With that being said, Piper has come to some odd conclusions in recent years, starting most notably with the idea that voting for the worldly bravado of Donald Trump was just a [sic] morally wrong as the utter institutional corruption, unfettered support of abortion, and woke totalitarianism of Joe Biden.”
Let’s dive into Piper’s perspective without immediately referring to Knox’s take & see what might jump out…
Here is his opening & yikes he’s seeming like a Pro-vaxer from the outset, not just pro-freedom (in Christ).
“My aim in this article is to encourage Christians to be vaccinated, if they can do so with a good conscience and judicious medical warrant.
The people I have especially in view are those who are not vaccinated because of fear of being out of step withpeople they respect, and in step with people they don’t admire. My message to them is simple: You are free.
So, I am not talking directly to everybody. If the shoe fits, put it on, check your conscience, consult your doctor, and go get vaccinated. If it doesn’t, go tearfully and cheerfully on your way. Tearfully, because over 4.5 million people have died from COVID-19 worldwide (including over 700,000 Americans). And cheerfully, because Christ makes it miraculously possible to love people by being “sorrowful yet always rejoicing” (2 Corinthians 6:10).”
So I’m pretty close to an anti-vaxer for numerous reasons now. It would be nearly impossible to read consistently here at The Q Tree & not be Extremely Concerned about the many & manifold dangers of the so-called Covid vaccine. Obviously Piper is coming from a very different worldview, though we Might be somewhat similar in our Christian biblical foundational viewpoints. Some of what he said above strikes me as manipulative, which is a big red flag to me!
Below is a comment written before the Plannedemic was on the scene with some vaccine concerns I expressed elsewhere, for perspective, but we’ll just stick with the Covid “vax” concerns today:
So Piper cites a number of sources that all seem to show that being unvax’d is Way more dangerous than being vax’d. Obviously here at the Q-Tree we consider material much more wider afield & also take into account the numerous reports, medical, scientific, & anecdotal that expose Much of the danger of the clot shots. It appears that Piper is unaware of this alternative & alarming material. Here’s his take, shudder:
When people respond to this increasingly clear reality by pointing to untrustworthy and disreputable government and medical leaders, I respond, “That’s a non sequitur.” The team called “vaccination” just made a first down, even if monkeys are holding the chains. For friends around the world who don’t know American football, that means a win is a win even if all the coaches and referees are incompetent.
Piper’s take on freedom is interesting & I encourage you to read it for yourself. He then lists a series of considerations to ponder as one decides for the shot or not. He doesn’t elaborate on those issues, even the implications of fetal cell lines, though he does link to a YouTube video on the topic. I have no idea if Piper is a pro-lifer or not, but at least he brings up that fetal tissue issue, though by implication doesn’t apparently consider it an impediment to Christians taking the “vax”. He appears to have made up his mind to take the shot & seems to be freeing, or even persuading, his parishioners to do the same–concerning!
Now let’s consider Knox’s other cited material that is opposed to Piper’s take before returning to Knox.
James White, the author of the above, pulls no punches & calls Piper out for his writings AND remarks on the election & the shot! Here is White pointing out what many Q-Treepers might consider to be quite obvious.
God’s ownership of our bodies implies our own stewardship thereof, which is why many of us take serious issue with experimental genetic therapies with record-breaking reports of adverse reactions, including death, with no long-term studies relating to safety (cancers, fertility), for a disease with an average mortality age above life expectancy and a mortality rate of less than 0.5%.
Further from White, bold is my take:
…there is the arrogance of the secular worldview that actually leads man to believe he is wise enough, while remaining in rebellion against his Creator, to meddle with the very essence of his being (genetics). When such arrogance is joined with a lust for power and dominion, it becomes deadly.
So the bulk of the article, comprising numerous biblical citations about freedom, is not the issue. Instead, the problem is found in the section that reads like a Pfizer promotional advertisement, and then the application portion at the end.
White’s wisdom & Piper’s naivety are on display in this next quote from White (not italicised to preserve his presentation):
“From late October of 2020, as word about the technology that is behind the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines came out, I have stated that I would consider use of these vaccine [sic] once three and five year safety studies had been completed. Prior to 2020, this would have been considered a sober, even mundane position to take. You do not do genetic manipulation at “warp speed,” especially when the threat you are seeking to counteract is one that almost always requires multiple co-morbidities and results in an age of death equal to or above life expectancy. But we do not have such data, and with how this one particular disease has been handled, we have good grounds to wonder if we will ever have geniune [sic] data in the future. The VAERS database, maintained by the CDC, has catalogued record numbers of negative results from the vaccines, so it is now regularly dismissed as “untested” (the irony is palpable) by the media. The amazing reality that we are now counting deaths with the Covid-19 as the same as deaths from Covid-19 has resulted in massively inflated numbers, numbers Dr. Piper repeats without comment, and uses in his final argumentation as well. The fact is we are playing with dangerous and unknown long-term impacts with these types of experimental1 therapies. Dr. Piper does not even acknowledge this reality.”
Here is the material for the footnote #1 above & a reference to further work by White (an 8 page pdf). This appears to be a level of truth AND integrity to be much admired & emulated, yet too rarely seen!
1 Yes, they remain experimental. The FDA approved the Pfizer jab without public comment, fundamentally altering the entire process. Video exists of Anthony Fauci in 2019 (Milken Institute found on CSPAN2) lamenting how long it would take to get these kinds of vaccines approved. Given his own role in the Wuhan lab, gain-of-function funding, etc., the reality of the situation is clear.
“Many studies are now showing efficacy rates below 50% and dropping for these vaccines. But the UK report is even more dangerous. We are now seeing that the vaccines are inhibiting the natural ability to produce antibodies against not just the well-known “spike protein,” but against the shell of the virus as well. Our bodies provide not only a much more robust immunity (as all studies are showing, and which Dr. Piper misrepresented when he said natural immunity is “as effective as vaccination immunity” when it is actually 13 to 27 times greater), but it is a much wider immunity, responding to more of the structure of the virus. This study is telling us that vaccination degrades our natural immunity, leaving us even more exposed to future infection.”
And this treat from White on Piper!
“He then provides one of the most disappointing lines in the article: “You have pondered the likelihood and unlikelihood of conspiratorial conjectures.” Without defining his meaning, or providing examples, Piper does us no favors. Is the recognition of the cooperation of Big Tech and Big Pharma with the extreme leftists in political power resulting in the transfer of literally trillions of dollars of wealth a “conspiratorial conjecture”? Are the banishments from social media of medical experts who are warning about dangers fictional? We are not told.”
Winding down toward his conclusion White displays both insight AND wisdom:
“It is undeniable that the vaccines are not a solo issue. They are coming to us after mask mandates and church closures and pastoral imprisonments and before the next onerous demands from governments drunk on the power that inevitably comes from the rise of secularism. The secular state is far worse than the ancient pagan context of Rome (which was bad enough), for by its very definition it must be ultimate in all things as there is no Creator. Why Piper does not see the role the vaccines play in the overall demands of the newly empowered totalitarianism I cannot say, but it is not the first time he has missed the role a particular element plays in the whole. Mean, arrogant tweets are, in the overall scheme of things, significantly less important than the fact that the Biden regime is intent upon forcing your children to celebrate drag queens and likewise just as intent upon taking control of every aspect of your life to force you to live in denial of the lordship of Christ. What Piper has missed, badly, is the role these vaccinations play in a much bigger, much more basic movement into a technologically based, chemically and medically controlled secular totalitarianism.”
Obviously it is easier to resonate with White, at least for me. So let’s return to Knox. Piper is presented as
“…either unable or unwilling to see past the veneer of Everything is Fine™ that’s been peddled by the leftist politicians, the woke media, the “progressive” academy, and the neo-Marxist Big Tech offices.”
Knox reminds us to consider the source AND question conclusions drawn from faulty data & assumptions:
“As a math professor once told me, even if your calculations are 100% correct, your solution will be insanely wrong if your starting premises are off!”
Honestly I did enjoy reading all three pieces. Knox was my intro to the other two & his framing & take is invaluable. Piper was who I’d been searching for in appreciation of the Wonderful Teaching Carl shared with us today (now yesterday). Piper was shallow on facts but deeper on scripture in his writing compared to what the other two shared, but both Knox & White were addressing Piper’s factual fallacies more than his biblical prowess. Because I was reading Piper’s article as more of a vax skeptic, I found some of his scriptural insights to work on me in the opposite way than where he was going in his applications. White was factual, truthful, & masterfully insightful on both human nature & the creeping totalitarianism in our societies. I resonated with his take & hope to read further of how he also might “rightly divide the Word of Truth”!
I guess I would prefer to just hear from Piper on scripture, not social issues. Because White & Knox are seemingly aligned with my worldview they are more comfortable reads to me when addressing social &/or cultural concerns. Knox is an easier, quicker read, so he’s a good place to start. White dives in deep & dispenses truth, wisdom, & integrity quite liberally. Piper would do well to stick to biblical truth & could expand his sources of information so he has a better grasp of what is Really happening in the world today.
Now let’s turn to the reason for this post’s title, since many Shepherds (pastors & other leaders) are seemingly leading their flocks of Sheep to the metaphorical, if not literal, slaughter.
I’m going to share Ezekiel 34 in a moment, but this is how thinking along those lines developed, in the comments section on this excellent post by Wolfmoon:
There are markers in the vaccine, AND they are testing (using useless PCR) for infection, AND they are taking DNA.
All bases are covered. The sheep will see the “testing for viruses” part and be satisfied. The lions will see the markers and the DNA theft and walk majestically away.
They are flailing around trying anything they can think of to trick the lions into submission.
But I am a lion, and not subject to such gaslighting trickery.11 Reply
EXACTLY! That’s what I’m thinking. The small cheese was the vaccine in as many as possible. The BIG CHEESE was “everybody gives their DNA to the globonazis just to travel”. The really big cheese behind the scenes is “now we can modify and study every single person like a lab animal”. When we talked about being “controls”, they rubbed their hands in glee. “We can use that! We can surely use that!” The trick THERE is to foil that plan – to say “No, KlauSS. No DNA for you!”
One of the things they would surely be testing for would be immune function. Shedding. OMG. There is so much modification and study of us possible.
cleverly disguised as “peace and safety” for all !
and coming soon…

sounds like mark.
but we’re not quite there just yet.
the UN’s Sustainablity crap + the 2030 Agenda + the WEF + the Vatican + the Covid/Climate Change tyranny…and the global compliance to all of that…is creating Alinsky style chaos.
they will need all the chaos they can manufacture…so that…
the machiavellian psychopath man of universal “peace” can show up, and quell all the chaos…
by then, ppl of the global village will have become rendered compliant enough so as to readily take the mark which will require, not just relinquishing our privacy, but something much worse : our souls.

We would be stronger if the Church leaders around the globe including Pop would stand with God’s people. They are not for a second time in history the past 80 years. They failed God and humanity and will be judged more harshly for selling out God and Christ for a lousy bag of silver.4 Reply
The whole 34th chapter of Ezekiel is profoundly applicable Right Now!
Ezekiel 34 New International Version The Lord Will Be Israel’s Shepherd 34 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Woe to you shepherds of Israel who only take care of yourselves! Should not shepherds take care of the flock? 3 You eat the curds, clothe yourselves with the wool and slaughter the choice animals, but you do not take care of the flock. 4 You have not strengthened the weak or healed the sick or bound up the injured. You have not brought back the strays or searched for the lost. You have ruled them harshly and brutally. 5 So they were scattered because there was no shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild animals. 6 My sheep wandered over all the mountains and on every high hill. They were scattered over the whole earth, and no one searched or looked for them.
7 “‘Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: 8 As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, because my flock lacks a shepherd and so has been plundered and has become food for all the wild animals, and because my shepherds did not search for my flock but cared for themselves rather than for my flock, 9 therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: 10 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against the shepherds and will hold them accountable for my flock. I will remove them from tending the flock so that the shepherds can no longer feed themselves. I will rescue my flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them.
Let’s add the rest of Ezekiel 34 (that wasn’t included in my original comment above) for perspective:
11 “‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I myself will search for my sheep and look after them. 12 As a shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness. 13 I will bring them out from the nations and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them into their own land. I will pasture them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines and in all the settlements in the land. 14 I will tend them in a good pasture, and the mountain heights of Israel will be their grazing land. There they will lie down in good grazing land, and there they will feed in a rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. 15 I myself will tend my sheep and have them lie down, declares the Sovereign Lord. 16 I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak, but the sleek and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd the flock with justice.
17 “‘As for you, my flock, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will judge between one sheep and another, and between rams and goats. 18 Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture? Must you also trample the rest of your pasture with your feet? Is it not enough for you to drink clear water? Must you also muddy the rest with your feet? 19 Must my flock feed on what you have trampled and drink what you have muddied with your feet?
20 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says to them: See, I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep. 21 Because you shove with flank and shoulder, butting all the weak sheep with your horns until you have driven them away, 22 I will save my flock, and they will no longer be plundered. I will judge between one sheep and another. 23 I will place over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he will tend them; he will tend them and be their shepherd. 24 I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David will be prince among them. I the Lord have spoken.
25 “‘I will make a covenant of peace with them and rid the land of savage beasts so that they may live in the wilderness and sleep in the forests in safety. 26 I will make them and the places surrounding my hill a blessing.[a] I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing. 27 The trees will yield their fruit and the ground will yield its crops; the people will be secure in their land. They will know that I am the Lord, when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hands of those who enslaved them. 28 They will no longer be plundered by the nations, nor will wild animals devour them. They will live in safety, and no one will make them afraid. 29 I will provide for them a land renowned for its crops, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the scorn of the nations. 30 Then they will know that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the Israelites, are my people, declares the Sovereign Lord. 31 You are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”

VC housekeeping note, footnotes from Bible Gateway show up as numbered here though they are lettered within the biblical text, please make adjustments (a=1, etc.).
I was going to expound on that passage but I think at this point it might be best for the Word of God to speak to your own heart as He wills…
Here is an example of a church that has gone overboard in the wrong direction, way beyond Piper’s vax persuasion. They wouldn’t allow the unvax’d to enter nor apparently work there, even those with medical or religious exemptions. I really hope the majority of the remaining flock got saline instead of the real clot shot!
Closer to home there have been disturbing trends. Our old home church seemed to go pretty overboard on Covid craziness. Earlier we visited to support a family member’s music ministry. At that time masks were strictly & personally enforced by deacons or elders, significantly impeding worship AND fellowship. They had Covid stations w/ hand sanitizer & masks positioned by entrances & strategically elsewhere in the building. Thankfully, over the summer the restrictions were relaxed as in people were encouraged to wear masks rather than “required”. At our daughter’s wedding there in August only a very small minority, like 2% of attendees, were pretty consistently masking.
My parents’ very large & prosperous church went through a season of only having online services. They spent exorbitant amounts of money to install various health measures including outfitting multiple gathering rooms w/ microbe killing lights, I believe. Since they also operate a Christian School they may have been proceeding with an abundance of caution. The online services were a blessing to my parents who may continue to do church that way when health or weather issues make attendance an hour away from home much more challenging. More churches having an online presence AND broadcasting services can be one of the seeming few positive changes since Covidiocy has mesmerized global sheep & tantalized totalitarians!
My husband has been very activie in music & leadership in a local church that might best be described as “seeker-friendly” & more youth oriented. This church is part of an extended church plant ministry in Michigan & most of the leadership are on the young side too. Michael, my husband, got one of our sons involved in music ministry there & our daughter-in-law was active in the children’s ministry. M & son got quite close to a Conservative Christian church employee who grew increasingly frustrated with various “woke” aspects of leadership that he was unable to sway whatsoever, even though he was on the church board. He finally moved out of state, largely to escape what was becoming toxic church culture.
Our son chose to leave because he couldn’t stand the mask mandates that were pretty heavy-handed for many months. Our daughter-in-law lost her motivation when they shut down all of the children’s ministry areas due to Covid lies. This church has had an extensive youth & children’s ministry & much outreach to the community. What had been a welcoming atmosphere, complete w/ complementary coffee & treats, turned into a desert of fear, in so many ways. Talk about serious mixed messaging…
My husband’s experiences with music there were becoming so frustrating compared to pre-covid freedoms. Significant enforced masking. No access to normal musician hang out rooms before or between services–much interpersonal ministry had occurred spontaneously in that environment previously. No longer were refreshments provided for the worship team (nor the church at large, for that matter). In fact they often had to wait in their cars when they weren’t on stage or in the service. Michael would hit a nearby drive-through & pick up cheap breakfast food to share with his team but it wasn’t even close to the same.
I attended service there at Easter & M had to RSVP so the church would have a head count & not get overcrowded. I’m not sure if they were attempting to limit numbers due to “social distancing” or what. Our son wasn’t able to make the RSVP cut so he stayed home on Easter, again. I refused to wear a mask & nobody called me on it, which was a relief. There were Many empty chairs so our son could likely have come too but the “restrictions” made the concept of joyfully coming into the House of the Lord pretty foreign–Tragic! Compared to the previous Easter, when virtually All Michigan churches were closed, this was an “improvement”. What a very twisted way to disrupt the celebration of Jesus’ Resurrection, the very lynchpin of the Church’s existence. Surely just accidental tyranny–NOT!
Although my husband Loves being a part of that music ministry AND has developed a number of quality relationships that have extended beyond just fellowship within the church walls, he has stated on numerous occasions that if that church ramps up the Covid crap again he is going to have to leave.
Churches bowing to government lies, tyranny, AND deception is transforming the natural areas of ministry that should be unfettered and subject to the leading of the Holy Spirit, Not the permission of The State! To see a pastor, like Piper, shilling for the death shots is beyond horrifying to me. Having ubiquitous masking & promoting fears & isolation & a lack of human contact (touch, hugging, holding hands to pray, shaking hands to greet others, laying hands on others in prayer &/or fellowship, facial expressions, etc.) are all destructive of the church & in effect are putting the Light of Christ under a metaphorical bushel.
Early in the Scamdemic when our dictator in the Governor’s mansion (Gretchen Half-Whitmer, to quote Trump) banned churches from being opened, or even people leaving their own households, we had a House Church service in our home. People from Four different households attended (family & pending family) and we were technically in violation of some illegitimate “mandate”. It was joyful, liberating, moving, godly, AND surreal. I wondered if we were, as a society, on the cusp of seeing the church driven underground, like in China or ancient Rome. Honestly our home church service was more meaningful & powerful with God’s presence than Any church building service I’d experienced in Many Years (my issues, not necessarily the church’s “fault”).
If driven underground The Church, The True Bride of Christ, will survive AND thrive…& suffer significantly…
In contrast to some of the above, other family members have been blessed to discover a vibrant & growing church about an hour away that did not bow the knee at Any level to the “pandemic” paralysis. Apparently this church has been on the front lines in fighting against illegitimate powers & even has some legal eagles in the congregation that have contributed significantly to clipping the Nazgul’s wings (Gretchen Whitmer). Standing up to tyranny may be One of the key factors why this church is growing so much right now.
I went to the church’s website to see if any of their Covid “activism” featured prominently, and it did not. Here is a link to an article from earlier in the scamdemic that quotes the pastor & gives context to his decision to keep their church open against manifest pressure from the system. It’s interesting given our hindsight view on much of what was happening then.
Another distant family member, on the other side of the state, has recounted how her small community church has fared during the Covid manufactured “crisis”. Her church stayed mostly open, didn’t mask, & didn’t do social distancing. Many people got sick AND now have natural immunity. Many congregants are well-versed in alternative healing approaches to Covid & have been helping to bring healing to their community whenever the illness kicks in. I’ve shared some of her approaches here before & hope to do so more fully in another post…eventually.
Alarmingly on Detroit area TV there are a number of pastors featured prominently in Michigan propaganda pieces trying to still convince the masses of the importance of taking the clot shot. Every time I see one I think of Margaret Sanger’s desire to keep the “uppity” “undesirables” from thinking for themselves & not getting abortions. Basically the de-population agenda is still finding “spiritual shills” to sell their snake oil!
OK I went looking at Michigan.gov to see if I could find an example commercial featuring a faith leader & found this document on fetal cells & the “vax”. At the bottom are links to various faith organizations statements on the topic. I would guess the state isn’t linking to anyone who objects to the “vax” but am not taking the time to check. All of the links say Catholic or Vatican except the Charlotte Lozier Institute.
It looks like in order to view one needs to download the file. The top one tries to convince pregnant women the shot is safe. The seventh video features one of the pastors lamenting people dying alone. From the second from the bottom on page 2, link below, there is a spot on “keeping the faith”.
Just even considering this material makes me feel like I need to take a shower. This is like the PR campaign to convince people to willingly enter the Nazi cattle cars & showers, bringing about their own destruction!
Here’s an example of the kind of pastoral leadership I would much rather see!
Here’s the larger scene preceding that one:
I’ve spoken/written numerous times about movie-quoting as a language in our family, including at my inaugural Q-Tree post immediately below. Comments are closed now, but well worth reading. If someone might care to comment there is a copy of that post on my main blog, Special Connections, also below.
Oh for a protective, patriotic pastor’s heart to arise in these dark days! Here is a possibility. I haven’t watched this video in full just share it for your consideration…It’s almost 2 hours & from earlier this month. Interestingly You Tube won’t allow that video to embed…hmm…just a glitch in the matrix surely!
Here is an appropriate warning from scripture for those who presume to teach others.
James 3:1 Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly
I went looking for some scriptures that might be applicable & encouraging in these dark days, here is truth!
2 Samuel 22 New International Version
David’s Song of Praise
22 David sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. 2 He said:
“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; 3 my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield[a] and the horn[b] of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior— from violent people you save me.
4 “I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and have been saved from my enemies. 5 The waves of death swirled about me; the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me. 6 The cords of the grave coiled around me; the snares of death confronted me.
7 “In my distress I called to the Lord; I called out to my God. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came to his ears. 8 The earth trembled and quaked, the foundations of the heavens[c] shook; they trembled because he was angry. 9 Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it. 10 He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet. 11 He mounted the cherubim and flew; he soared[d] on the wings of the wind. 12 He made darkness his canopy around him— the dark[e] rain clouds of the sky. 13 Out of the brightness of his presence bolts of lightning blazed forth. 14 The Lord thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded. 15 He shot his arrows and scattered the enemy, with great bolts of lightning he routed them. 16 The valleys of the sea were exposed and the foundations of the earth laid bare at the rebuke of the Lord, at the blast of breath from his nostrils.
17 “He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters. 18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me. 19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster, but the Lord was my support. 20 He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.
21 “The Lord has dealt with me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me. 22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I am not guilty of turning from my God. 23 All his laws are before me; I have not turned away from his decrees. 24 I have been blameless before him and have kept myself from sin. 25 The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness[f] in his sight.
26 “To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless, 27 to the pure you show yourself pure, but to the devious you show yourself shrewd. 28 You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low. 29 You, Lord, are my lamp; the Lord turns my darkness into light. 30 With your help I can advance against a troop[g]; with my God I can scale a wall.
31 “As for God, his way is perfect: The Lord’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him. 32 For who is God besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God? 33 It is God who arms me with strength[h] and keeps my way secure. 34 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights. 35 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze. 36 You make your saving help my shield; your help has made[i] me great. 37 You provide a broad path for my feet, so that my ankles do not give way.
38 “I pursued my enemies and crushed them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed. 39 I crushed them completely, and they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet. 40 You armed me with strength for battle; you humbled my adversaries before me. 41 You made my enemies turn their backs in flight, and I destroyed my foes. 42 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them— to the Lord, but he did not answer. 43 I beat them as fine as the dust of the earth; I pounded and trampled them like mud in the streets.
44 “You have delivered me from the attacks of the peoples; you have preserved me as the head of nations. People I did not know now serve me, 45 foreigners cower before me; as soon as they hear of me, they obey me. 46 They all lose heart; they come trembling[j] from their strongholds.
47 “The Lord lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be my God, the Rock, my Savior! 48 He is the God who avenges me, who puts the nations under me, 49 who sets me free from my enemies. You exalted me above my foes; from a violent man you rescued me. 50 Therefore I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing the praises of your name.
51 “He gives his king great victories; he shows unfailing kindness to his anointed, to David and his descendants forever.”
8 “But if I were you, I would appeal to God; I would lay my cause before him. 9 He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. 10 He provides rain for the earth; he sends water on the countryside. 11 The lowly he sets on high, and those who mourn are lifted to safety. 12 He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success. 13 He catches the wise in their craftiness, and the schemes of the wily are swept away. 14 Darkness comes upon them in the daytime; at noon they grope as in the night. 15 He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth; he saves them from the clutches of the powerful. 16 So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth.
17 “Blessed is the one whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.[a] 18 For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal. 19 From six calamities he will rescue you; in seven no harm will touch you. 20 In famine he will deliver you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword. 21 You will be protected from the lash of the tongue, and need not fear when destruction comes. 22 You will laugh at destruction and famine, and need not fear the wild animals. 23 For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you. 24 You will know that your tent is secure; you will take stock of your property and find nothing missing. 25 You will know that your children will be many, and your descendants like the grass of the earth. 26 You will come to the grave in full vigor, like sheaves gathered in season.
27 “We have examined this, and it is true. So hear it and apply it to yourself.”

As you can see from the numerous scriptures shared above God’s Word is full of hope for us all! Please dive in for yourself & see how God might speak directly to you in your hour of need from His Word!!!
Here is the passage I was originally searching for, Absolutely Applicable to pastors, leaders, AND to us all!
Proverbs 24:10-12 New International Version
Saying 25
10 If you falter in a time of trouble, how small is your strength! 11 Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. 12 If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done?
God grant us the wisdom, grace, AND strength to speak the truth in love AND to rescue those who are “staggering toward slaughter”.
Well God Bless you AND thank you for reading along with these thoughts today. I hope you are encouraged, inspired, AND challenged to go forth boldly proclaiming grace And truth. In Jesus Love, Valerie
VC note on use of AND throughout. This is a bit of an inside joke at The Q-Tree as Wolfmoon is fond of using the term “AND logic”, as in many times things aren’t either or but more like both AND…

Please find more and better copies of this street-corner speech!!!
I will add them here.
Yeah, we know this stuff, but this is like the “check-mark red pill” that seals the deal and shows the URGENCY of turning this shit over. This old boy puts it all together in a way that simply cannot be denied.
We have to stop it COLD.
What I want people to do is to IDENTIFY all things we need to do RIGOROUSLY in order to save businesses and stop this process.
We have to begin IMMEDIATELY.
I want TWO classes of actions / inactions.
(1) What must WE as individuals do or not do.
(2) What must politicians do or not do.
The LATTER (and how it affects the FORMER) is how we will TEST the WHEAT from the CHAFF.
Better hope that TEAM TRUMP is paying attention. Because WE ARE.
Sundance has a great article up right now, in which he shows why his warning about Western COVID authoritarianism is coming true, by highlighting a speech by Vladimir Putin.
Let me back up a bit.
Sundance has been saying that the increasing authoritarianism and brutality of the Western “democracies” over COVID mandates, is placing those countries (including the USA) in the dangerous position of giving real credibility to human rights criticisms by Russia, China and Iran.
He has ALSO been saying that this unearned credibility has significant geopolitical consequence.
Sundance has WARNED, that as Western criticisms of Russia and China grow more hypocritical, those same Western countries will NOT be able to object, much less react, to aggressive moves by Russia and China.
I urge you to go read Sundance’s thoughts – UNTIL you get to the translated transcript of Vladimir Putin’s amazing speech. Sundance only provides the most highly relevant part of the speech.
I want you to come back here, and read THE WHOLE DAMN SPEECH.
I will save my thoughts for the end. It’s much more profitable if you read his speech yourselves, and come to the same conclusions independently, which I am sure you will.
President of Russia Vladimir Putin:
Ladies and gentlemen,
To begin with, I would like to thank you for coming to Russia and taking part in the Valdai Club events.
As always, during these meetings you raise pressing issues and hold comprehensive discussions of these issues that, without exaggeration, matter for people around the world. Once again, the key theme of the forum was put in a straightforward, I would even say, point-blank manner: Global Shake-up in the 21st Century: The Individual, Values and the State.
Indeed, we are living in an era of great change. If I may, by tradition, I will offer my views with regard to the agenda that you have come up with.
In general, this phrase, “to live in an era of great change,” may seem trite since we use it so often. Also, this era of change began quite a long time ago, and changes have become part of everyday life. Hence, the question: are they worth focusing on? I agree with those who made the agenda for these meetings; of course they are.
In recent decades, many people have cited a Chinese proverb. The Chinese people are wise, and they have many thinkers and valuable thoughts that we can still use today. One of them, as you may know, says, “God forbid living in a time of change.” But we are already living in it, whether we like it or not, and these changes are becoming deeper and more fundamental. But let us consider another Chinese wisdom: the word “crisis” consists of two hieroglyphs – there are probably representatives of the People’s Republic of China in the audience, and they will correct me if I have it wrong – but, two hieroglyphs, “danger” and “opportunity.” And as we say here in Russia, “fight difficulties with your mind, and fight dangers with your experience.”
Of course, we must be aware of the danger and be ready to counter it, and not just one threat but many diverse threats that can arise in this era of change. However, it is no less important to recall a second component of the crisis – opportunities that must not be missed, all the more so since the crisis we are facing is conceptual and even civilisation-related. This is basically a crisis of approaches and principles that determine the very existence of humans on Earth, but we will have to seriously revise them in any event. The question is where to move, what to give up, what to revise or adjust. In saying this, I am convinced that it is necessary to fight for real values, upholding them in every way.
Humanity entered into a new era about three decades ago when the main conditions were created for ending military-political and ideological confrontation. I am sure you have talked a lot about this in this discussion club. Our Foreign Minister also talked about it, but nevertheless I would like to repeat several things.
A search for a new balance, sustainable relations in the social, political, economic, cultural and military areas and support for the world system was launched at that time. We were looking for this support but must say that we did not find it, at least so far. Meanwhile, those who felt like the winners after the end of the Cold War (we have also spoken about this many times) and thought they climbed Mount Olympus soon discovered that the ground was falling away underneath even there, and this time it was their turn, and nobody could “stop this fleeting moment” no matter how fair it seemed.
In general, it must have seemed that we adjusted to this continuous inconstancy, unpredictability and permanent state of transition, but this did not happen either.
I would like to add that the transformation that we are seeing and are part of is of a different calibre than the changes that repeatedly occurred in human history, at least those we know about. This is not simply a shift in the balance of forces or scientific and technological breakthroughs, though both are also taking place. Today, we are facing systemic changes in all directions – from the increasingly complicated geophysical condition of our planet to a more paradoxical interpretation of what a human is and what the reasons for his existence are.
Let us look around. And I will say this again: I will allow myself to express a few thoughts that I sign on to.
Firstly, climate change and environmental degradation are so obvious that even the most careless people can no longer dismiss them. One can continue to engage in scientific debates about the mechanisms behind the ongoing processes, but it is impossible to deny that these processes are getting worse, and something needs to be done. Natural disasters such as droughts, floods, hurricanes, and tsunamis have almost become the new normal, and we are getting used to them. Suffice it to recall the devastating, tragic floods in Europe last summer, the fires in Siberia – there are a lot of examples. Not only in Siberia – our neighbours in Turkey have also had wildfires, and the United States, and other places on the American continent. It sometimes seems that any geopolitical, scientific and technical, or ideological rivalry becomes pointless in this context, if the winners will have not enough air to breathe or nothing to drink.
The coronavirus pandemic has become another reminder of how fragile our community is, how vulnerable it is, and our most important task is to ensure humanity a safe existence and resilience. To increase our chance of survival in the face of cataclysms, we absolutely need to rethink how we go about our lives, how we run our households, how cities develop or how they should develop; we need to reconsider economic development priorities of entire states. I repeat, safety is one of our main imperatives, in any case it has become obvious now, and anyone who tries to deny this will have to later explain why they were wrong and why they were unprepared for the crises and shocks whole nations are facing.
Second. The socioeconomic problems facing humankind have worsened to the point where, in the past, they would trigger worldwide shocks, such as world wars or bloody social cataclysms. Everyone is saying that the current model of capitalism which underlies the social structure in the overwhelming majority of countries, has run its course and no longer offers a solution to a host of increasingly tangled differences.
Everywhere, even in the richest countries and regions, the uneven distribution of material wealth has exacerbated inequality, primarily, inequality of opportunities both within individual societies and at the international level. I mentioned this formidable challenge in my remarks at the Davos Forum earlier this year. No doubt, these problems threaten us with major and deep social divisions.
Furthermore, a number of countries and even entire regions are regularly hit by food crises. We will probably discuss this later, but there is every reason to believe that this crisis will become worse in the near future and may reach extreme forms. There are also shortages of water and electricity (we will probably cover this today as well), not to mention poverty, high unemployment rates or lack of adequate healthcare.
Lagging countries are fully aware of that and are losing faith in the prospects of ever catching up with the leaders. Disappointment spurs aggression and pushes people to join the ranks of extremists. People in these countries have a growing sense of unfulfilled and failed expectations and the lack of any opportunities not only for themselves, but for their children, as well. This is what makes them look for better lives and results in uncontrolled migration, which, in turn, creates fertile ground for social discontent in more prosperous countries. I do not need to explain anything to you, since you can see everything with your own eyes and are, probably, versed on these matters even better than I.
As I noted earlier, prosperous leading powers have other pressing social problems, challenges and risks in ample supply, and many among them are no longer interested in fighting for influence since, as they say, they already have enough on their plates. The fact that society and young people in many countries have overreacted in a harsh and even aggressive manner to measures to combat the coronavirus showed – and I want to emphasise this, I hope someone has already mentioned this before me at other venues – so, I think that this reaction showed that the pandemic was just a pretext: the causes for social irritation and frustration run much deeper.
I have another important point to make. The pandemic, which, in theory, was supposed to rally the people in the fight against this massive common threat, has instead become a divisive rather than a unifying factor. There are many reasons for that, but one of the main ones is that they started looking for solutions to problems among the usual approaches – a variety of them, but still the old ones, but they just do not work. Or, to be more precise, they do work, but often and oddly enough, they worsen the existing state of affairs.
By the way, Russia has repeatedly called for, and I will repeat this, stopping these inappropriate ambitions and for working together. We will probably talk about this later but it is clear what I have in mind. We are talking about the need to counter the coronavirus infection together. But nothing changes; everything remains the same despite the humanitarian considerations. I am not referring to Russia now, let’s leave the sanctions against Russia for now; I mean the sanctions that remain in place against those states that badly need international assistance. Where are the humanitarian fundamentals of Western political thought? It appears there is nothing there, just idle talk. Do you understand? This is what seems to be on the surface.
Furthermore, the technological revolution, impressive achievements in artificial intelligence, electronics, communications, genetics, bioengineering, and medicine open up enormous opportunities, but at the same time, in practical terms, they raise philosophical, moral and spiritual questions that were until recently the exclusive domain of science fiction writers. What will happen if machines surpass humans in the ability to think? Where is the limit of interference in the human body beyond which a person ceases being himself and turns into some other entity? What are the general ethical limits in the world where the potential of science and machines are becoming almost boundless? What will this mean for each of us, for our descendants, our nearest descendants – our children and grandchildren?
These changes are gaining momentum, and they certainly cannot be stopped because they are objective as a rule. All of us will have to deal with the consequences regardless of our political systems, economic condition or prevailing ideology.
Verbally, all states talk about their commitment to the ideals of cooperation and a willingness to work together for resolving common problems but, unfortunately, these are just words. In reality, the opposite is happening, and the pandemic has served to fuel the negative trends that emerged long ago and are now only getting worse. The approach based on the proverb, “your own shirt is closer to the body,” has finally become common and is now no longer even concealed. Moreover, this is often even a matter of boasting and brandishing. Egotistic interests prevail over the notion of the common good.
Of course, the problem is not just the ill will of certain states and notorious elites. It is more complicated than that, in my opinion. In general, life is seldom divided into black and white. Every government, every leader is primarily responsible to his own compatriots, obviously. The main goal is to ensure their security, peace and prosperity. So, international, transnational issues will never be as important for a national leadership as domestic stability. In general, this is normal and correct.
We need to face the fact the global governance institutions are not always effective and their capabilities are not always up to the challenge posed by the dynamics of global processes. In this sense, the pandemic could help – it clearly showed which institutions have what it takes and which need fine-tuning.
The re-alignment of the balance of power presupposes a redistribution of shares in favour of rising and developing countries that until now felt left out. To put it bluntly, the Western domination of international affairs, which began several centuries ago and, for a short period, was almost absolute in the late 20th century, is giving way to a much more diverse system.
This transformation is not a mechanical process and, in its own way, one might even say, is unparalleled. Arguably, political history has no examples of a stable world order being established without a big war and its outcomes as the basis, as was the case after World War II. So, we have a chance to create an extremely favourable precedent. The attempt to create it after the end of the Cold War on the basis of Western domination failed, as we see. The current state of international affairs is a product of that very failure, and we must learn from this.
Some may wonder, what have we arrived at? We have arrived somewhere paradoxical. Just an example: for two decades, the most powerful nation in the world has been conducting military campaigns in two countries that it cannot be compared to by any standard. But in the end, it had to wind down operations without achieving a single goal that it had set for itself going in 20 years ago, and to withdraw from these countries causing considerable damage to others and itself. In fact, the situation has worsened dramatically.
But that is not the point. Previously, a war lost by one side meant victory for the other side, which took responsibility for what was happening. For example, the defeat of the United States in the Vietnam War, for example, did not make Vietnam a “black hole.” On the contrary, a successfully developing state arose there, which, admittedly, relied on the support of a strong ally. Things are different now: no matter who takes the upper hand, the war does not stop, but just changes form. As a rule, the hypothetical winner is reluctant or unable to ensure peaceful post-war recovery, and only worsens the chaos and the vacuum posing a danger to the world.
Colleagues,
What do you think are the starting points of this complex realignment process? Let me try to summarise the talking points.
First, the coronavirus pandemic has clearly shown that the international order is structured around nation states. By the way, recent developments have shown that global digital platforms – with all their might, which we could see from the internal political processes in the United States – have failed to usurp political or state functions. These attempts proved ephemeral. The US authorities, as I said, have immediately put the owners of these platforms in their place, which is exactly what is being done in Europe, if you just look at the size of the fines imposed on them and the demonopolisation measures being taken. You are aware of that.
In recent decades, many have tossed around fancy concepts claiming that the role of the state was outdated and outgoing. Globalisation supposedly made national borders an anachronism, and sovereignty an obstacle to prosperity. You know, I said it before and I will say it again. This is also what was said by those who attempted to open up other countries’ borders for the benefit of their own competitive advantages. This is what actually happened. And as soon as it transpired that someone somewhere is achieving great results, they immediately returned to closing borders in general and, first of all, their own customs borders and what have you, and started building walls. Well, were we supposed to not notice, or what? Everyone sees everything and everyone understands everything perfectly well. Of course, they do.
There is no point in disputing it anymore. It is obvious. But events, when we spoke about the need to open up borders, events, as I said, went in the opposite direction. Only sovereign states can effectively respond to the challenges of the times and the demands of the citizens. Accordingly, any effective international order should take into account the interests and capabilities of the state and proceed on that basis, and not try to prove that they should not exist. Furthermore, it is impossible to impose anything on anyone, be it the principles underlying the sociopolitical structure or values that someone, for their own reasons, has called universal. After all, it is clear that when a real crisis strikes, there is only one universal value left and that is human life, which each state decides for itself how best to protect based on its abilities, culture and traditions.
In this regard, I will again note how severe and dangerous the coronavirus pandemic has become. As we know, more than 4.9 million have died of it. These terrifying figures are comparable and even exceed the military losses of the main participants in World War I.
The second point I would like to draw your attention to is the scale of change that forces us to act extremely cautiously, if only for reasons of self-preservation. The state and society must not respond radically to qualitative shifts in technology, dramatic environmental changes or the destruction of traditional systems. It is easier to destroy than to create, as we all know. We in Russia know this very well, regrettably, from our own experience, which we have had several times.
Just over a century ago, Russia objectively faced serious problems, including because of the ongoing World War I, but its problems were not bigger and possibly even smaller or not as acute as the problems the other countries faced, and Russia could have dealt with its problems gradually and in a civilised manner. But revolutionary shocks led to the collapse and disintegration of a great power. The second time this happened 30 years ago, when a potentially very powerful nation failed to enter the path of urgently needed, flexible but thoroughly substantiated reforms at the right time, and as a result it fell victim to all kinds of dogmatists, both reactionary ones and the so-called progressives – all of them did their bit, all sides did.
These examples from our history allow us to say that revolutions are not a way to settle a crisis but a way to aggravate it. No revolution was worth the damage it did to the human potential.
Third. The importance of a solid support in the sphere of morals, ethics and values is increasing dramatically in the modern fragile world. In point of fact, values are a product, a unique product of cultural and historical development of any nation. The mutual interlacing of nations definitely enriches them, openness expands their horizons and allows them to take a fresh look at their own traditions. But the process must be organic, and it can never be rapid. Any alien elements will be rejected anyway, possibly bluntly. Any attempts to force one’s values on others with an uncertain and unpredictable outcome can only further complicate a dramatic situation and usually produce the opposite reaction and an opposite from the intended result.
We look in amazement at the processes underway in the countries which have been traditionally looked at as the standard-bearers of progress. Of course, the social and cultural shocks that are taking place in the United States and Western Europe are none of our business; we are keeping out of this. Some people in the West believe that an aggressive elimination of entire pages from their own history, “reverse discrimination” against the majority in the interests of a minority, and the demand to give up the traditional notions of mother, father, family and even gender, they believe that all of these are the mileposts on the path towards social renewal.
Listen, I would like to point out once again that they have a right to do this, we are keeping out of this. But we would like to ask them to keep out of our business as well. We have a different viewpoint, at least the overwhelming majority of Russian society – it would be more correct to put it this way – has a different opinion on this matter. We believe that we must rely on our own spiritual values, our historical tradition and the culture of our multiethnic nation.
The advocates of so-called ‘social progress’ believe they are introducing humanity to some kind of a new and better consciousness. Godspeed, hoist the flags as we say, go right ahead. The only thing that I want to say now is that their prescriptions are not new at all. It may come as a surprise to some people, but Russia has been there already. After the 1917 revolution, the Bolsheviks, relying on the dogmas of Marx and Engels, also said that they would change existing ways and customs and not just political and economic ones, but the very notion of human morality and the foundations of a healthy society. The destruction of age-old values, religion and relations between people, up to and including the total rejection of family (we had that, too), encouragement to inform on loved ones – all this was proclaimed progress and, by the way, was widely supported around the world back then and was quite fashionable, same as today. By the way, the Bolsheviks were absolutely intolerant of opinions other than theirs.
This, I believe, should call to mind some of what we are witnessing now. Looking at what is happening in a number of Western countries, we are amazed to see the domestic practices, which we, fortunately, have left, I hope, in the distant past. The fight for equality and against discrimination has turned into aggressive dogmatism bordering on absurdity, when the works of the great authors of the past – such as Shakespeare – are no longer taught at schools or universities, because their ideas are believed to be backward. The classics are declared backward and ignorant of the importance of gender or race. In Hollywood memos are distributed about proper storytelling and how many characters of what colour or gender should be in a movie. This is even worse than the agitprop department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
Countering acts of racism is a necessary and noble cause, but the new ‘cancel culture’ has turned it into ‘reverse discrimination’ that is, reverse racism. The obsessive emphasis on race is further dividing people, when the real fighters for civil rights dreamed precisely about erasing differences and refusing to divide people by skin colour. I specifically asked my colleagues to find the following quote from Martin Luther King: “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin but by their character.” This is the true value. However, things are turning out differently there. By the way, the absolute majority of Russian people do not think that the colour of a person’s skin or their gender is an important matter. Each of us is a human being. This is what matters.
In a number of Western countries, the debate over men’s and women’s rights has turned into a perfect phantasmagoria. Look, beware of going where the Bolsheviks once planned to go – not only communalising chickens, but also communalising women. One more step and you will be there.
Zealots of these new approaches even go so far as to want to abolish these concepts altogether. Anyone who dares mention that men and women actually exist, which is a biological fact, risk being ostracised. “Parent number one” and “parent number two,” “’birthing parent” instead of “mother,” and “human milk” replacing “breastmilk” because it might upset the people who are unsure about their own gender. I repeat, this is nothing new; in the 1920s, the so-called Soviet Kulturtraegers also invented some newspeak believing they were creating a new consciousness and changing values that way. And, as I have already said, they made such a mess it still makes one shudder at times.
Not to mention some truly monstrous things when children are taught from an early age that a boy can easily become a girl and vice versa. That is, the teachers actually impose on them a choice we all supposedly have. They do so while shutting the parents out of the process and forcing the child to make decisions that can upend their entire life. They do not even bother to consult with child psychologists – is a child at this age even capable of making a decision of this kind? Calling a spade a spade, this verges on a crime against humanity, and it is being done in the name and under the banner of progress.
Well, if someone likes this, let them do it. I have already mentioned that, in shaping our approaches, we will be guided by a healthy conservatism. That was a few years ago, when passions on the international arena were not yet running as high as they are now, although, of course, we can say that clouds were gathering even then. Now, when the world is going through a structural disruption, the importance of reasonable conservatism as the foundation for a political course has skyrocketed – precisely because of the multiplying risks and dangers, and the fragility of the reality around us.
This conservative approach is not about an ignorant traditionalism, a fear of change or a restraining game, much less about withdrawing into our own shell. It is primarily about reliance on a time-tested tradition, the preservation and growth of the population, a realistic assessment of oneself and others, a precise alignment of priorities, a correlation of necessity and possibility, a prudent formulation of goals, and a fundamental rejection of extremism as a method. And frankly, in the impending period of global reconstruction, which may take quite long, with its final design being uncertain, moderate conservatism is the most reasonable line of conduct, as far as I see it. It will inevitably change at some point, but so far, do no harm – the guiding principle in medicine – seems to be the most rational one. Noli nocere, as they say.
Again, for us in Russia, these are not some speculative postulates, but lessons from our difficult and sometimes tragic history. The cost of ill-conceived social experiments is sometimes beyond estimation. Such actions can destroy not only the material, but also the spiritual foundations of human existence, leaving behind moral wreckage where nothing can be built to replace it for a long time.
Finally, there is one more point I want to make. We understand all too well that resolving many urgent problems the world has been facing would be impossible without close international cooperation. However, we need to be realistic: most of the pretty slogans about coming up with global solutions to global problems that we have been hearing since the late 20th century will never become reality. In order to achieve a global solution, states and people have to transfer their sovereign rights to supra-national structures to an extent that few, if any, would accept. This is primarily attributable to the fact that you have to answer for the outcomes of such policies not to some global public, but to your citizens and voters.
However, this does not mean that exercising some restraint for the sake of bringing about solutions to global challenges is impossible. After all, a global challenge is a challenge for all of us together, and to each of us in particular. If everyone saw a way to benefit from cooperation in overcoming these challenges, this would definitely leave us better equipped to work together.
One of the ways to promote these efforts could be, for example, to draw up, at the UN level, a list of challenges and threats that specific countries face, with details of how they could affect other countries. This effort could involve experts from various countries and academic fields, including you, my colleagues. We believe that developing a roadmap of this kind could inspire many countries to see global issues in a new light and understand how cooperation could be beneficial for them.
I have already mentioned the challenges international institutions are facing. Unfortunately, this is an obvious fact: it is now a question of reforming or closing some of them. However, the United Nations as the central international institution retains its enduring value, at least for now. I believe that in our turbulent world it is the UN that brings a touch of reasonable conservatism into international relations, something that is so important for normalising the situation.
Many criticise the UN for failing to adapt to a rapidly changing world. In part, this is true, but it is not the UN, but primarily its members who are to blame for this. In addition, this international body promotes not only international norms, but also the rule-making spirit, which is based on the principles of equality and maximum consideration for everyone’s opinions. Our mission is to preserve this heritage while reforming the organisation. However, in doing so we need to make sure that we do not throw the baby out with the bathwater, as the saying goes.
This is not the first time I am using a high rostrum to make this call for collective action in order to face up to the problems that continue to pile up and become more acute. It is thanks to you, friends and colleagues, that the Valdai Club is emerging or has already established itself as a high-profile forum. It is for this reason that I am turning to this platform to reaffirm our readiness to work together on addressing the most urgent problems that the world is facing today.
Friends,
The changes mentioned here prior to me, as well as by yours truly, are relevant to all countries and peoples. Russia, of course, is not an exception. Just like everyone else, we are searching for answers to the most urgent challenges of our time.
Of course, no one has any ready-made recipes. However, I would venture to say that our country has an advantage. Let me explain what this advantage is. It is to do with our historical experience. You may have noticed that I have referred to it several times in the course of my remarks. Unfortunately, we had to bring back many sad memories, but at least our society has developed what they now refer to as herd immunity to extremism that paves the way to upheavals and socioeconomic cataclysms. People really value stability and being able to live normal lives and to prosper while confident that the irresponsible aspirations of yet another group of revolutionaries will not upend their plans and aspirations. Many have vivid memories of what happened 30 years ago and all the pain it took to climb out of the ditch where our country and our society found themselves after the USSR fell apart.
The conservative views we hold are an optimistic conservatism, which is what matters the most. We believe stable, positive development to be possible. It all depends primarily on our own efforts. Of course, we are ready to work with our partners on common noble causes.
I would like to thank all participants once more, for your attention. As the tradition goes, I will gladly answer or at least try to answer your questions.
Thank you for your patience.

[ Wolf here ]
Before we even get started, note how much the intelligence of that speech differs from our phony President Biden. It’s even smarter than speech-making puppet and ACTUAL President, Barack Obama.
Now – don’t think for a SECOND that Mr. Putin isn’t one VERY cagey cat who’s looking to eat that singing caged bird when nobody is looking.
From the moment Putin shills for phony Globo-Soviet China-helping “climate change”, you know he’s not in it to speak the truth unless that truth benefits Russia.
Yeah, you can say that he’s “playing along with the Globalists”, but why is that?
RUSSIA FIRST. It is smarter for him to play along openly on a strategy that harms America more than Russia, and overtly helps China, than to flip that around and make his own country suffer, merely for credit with a few opponents of globalism in a primary globalist adversary (meaning the United States).
Never for a moment think this guy is saying anything to help America – unless it helps Russia first.
This is part of nationalism, or at least Russia’s version of it. Just accept that, IMO.
From there, also understand that Putin is always looking out for China, too. Russia and China will always have a very complex relationship, where mutual suspicions and mutual courtesies include NEVER saying the wrong thing, risking destabilizing that relationship, and always upholding each other’s SCAMS.
OK? Got that?
The TRUTH only goes so far with Putin. After that, it’s RUSSIA FIRST, LIES OR NO LIES.
Nevertheless, Putin goes on to provide an AMAZING set of NON-HYPOCRITICAL arguments:
FOR nationalism
FOR conservatism
FOR sovereignty
AGAINST wokism
AGAINST “racist anti-racism”
AGAINST tyranny of the minority
AGAINST Bolshevism
AGAINST extremism
AGAINST gender / sexual minority insanity
AGAINST Western liberal excess
AGAINST revolution
AGAINST transhumanism
AGAINST destruction of society
This is exactly what Sundance is saying. Putin has jumped off his bear, and has GRABBED credibility by both horns, and is milking the bull for all the national macho it will provide!
Corrupt, Soviet-honeymooning, dementia-addled weakling Biden, selling out to China, has given Russia an extraordinary opportunity to recover Soviet-era levels of prominence on the world stage – but without all the stinky Bolshevik baggage of old. Full of fleas and bedbugs, that baggage was gladly taken off Russia’s hands by Democrat doufuses and traitors.
In my opinion, this is exactly where Russia wants things.
I have more opinions, but I will save those for the comments.
What do YOU think of Putin’s speech?
W
Civil rights as distinct from minority tyranny. What a concept! Wonder where that started?
Wolf needs to take care of health matters – both HIS and THE SITE’S. This should not significantly impact things here in the short term, and in the long term, it will improve things. However, this means that Wolf’s appearances on the site will be even more unpredictable than they already have been.
The remainder of this post is just a vague and largely unnecessary explanation of the matters.
My Health
First of all, I have greatly appreciated Duchess01‘s various prayers for bakocarl and myself! These prayers have been very effective.
I also appreciate all the other people who have been praying for me, both here and on Marica’s site! God Bless you and thank you!
One of the most important results of these prayers was to convince me to do needed things, instead of putting them off ONE MORE DAY WEEK MONTH YEAR.
And because GOD wants things to move, THEY’RE MOVING.
Thus, because I’ll need to spend time doing all of the ridiculous things that being healthy entails these days, particularly when dealing with the healthcare system, you will see me a bit less during “office hours”.
Know that I’m still around – I may just be coming around at different times.
Site Health
It turns out that we are having some kind of growing pains. Because of that, I’m going to have to increase the percentage of BUDGET that is going for RENT instead of being stashed into the RAINY DAY FUND.
We will remain IN THE BLACK.
However, we need a bigger condo, or even a single-family abode.
I will thus be spending MORE TIME setting up those things, too.
Wish me luck!
JP’s Magnesium
I have to put in a free plug for a magnesium supplement called Magnesium Breakthrough, which I learned about HERE:
At the end of the video, JP talks about this new magnesium supplement he is fronting. As a certified acolyte of Mg, the element that saved me from long haul, I am a fan of this stuff already. Yes, this stuff which I will admit I have never purchased nor tried. No – I have not tried this particular supplement, but I have been pushing Mg supplementation for the last 2 years, and this stuff looks pricey but good.
Here is why I’m super-convinced.
Let’s look more closely at that label, shall we?
Yes, there is Vitamin B6 and manganese in there, too, but the kicker is that there are so MANY of those fancy, super-bioavailable forms of magnesium, that they crammed into there.
If this shit got any more boutique, they would have to serve you champagne and hors d’oeuvres while shopping.
I could argue that many if not most of these niche forms of magnesium are the same basic type of chelated magnesium as “Magnesium Chelate” (top of the list). In my opinion, there’s not a massive difference in bioavailability between them, although YOUR BIOCHEMISTRY MAY VARY.
However, Sucrosomial Magnesium Oxide is different, and it has been proven to be highly bioavailable, which is uncommon for ANY form of magnesium oxide. It’s even more bioavailable than some of the chelates, which is startling.
And with 7 different kinds of magnesium, (a) something is going to work great for you, and (b) they are all going to max out at different times, with different half-lives, so you are going to get a nice spread in the availability. I use 3 kinds already – 7 is surely even better.
Just don’t turn it up to 11, JP!!!
SO – bottom line – if you’re thinking about upping your magnesium, you may want to check this “Magnesium Breakthrough” stuff out.
I guarantee it’s better than “Vaccine Breakthrough” – or “your money back”!!! LOL!
And with that – I bid you all a great Thursday. STAY HEALTHY. I will be doing it, too!
