Already former New Zealand prime minster Jacinda Ardern is fading from the scene. Who knows where she will surface, but in some globalist, woke organisation for sure. But, before our memories dim, let us not forget the tyranny that she unleashed during the Covid plandemic. Nothing like this was seen before in New Zealand history. She was quite prepared to abandon the liberal values of the West, in favour of socialist paternalism, and state control, similar to the CCP of today, or USSR of the past. She was a symbol of the entire woke, globalist agenda. She is gone, but the system just replaces its agents, so the misery continues, until people arise and make sure that their oppression ends. Roll on those grand times!

The Daily Sceptic puzzles over how it was that US intelligence was able to detect the Covid virus before China did. Apparently US intelligence knew that something was going on since mid-November 2019, which of course, demolishes the “it came from the Wuhan wet market” idea, as if that needed any more refutation. The narrative here is to see the US as primarily responsible, but the evidence indicates that the US actively funded gain-of-function research on corona viruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Thus, it is not the case that China was innocent and ignorant of the Covid outbreak. It certainly did not act as a good citizen at the time, and seemed to want the disease to spread to the West. The real question is exactly what was going on here. An accidental release is the simplest explanation, yet the behaviour of all parties involved tends to push one more in the direction of a deliberate release.

American Thinker.com is another great publication that has been fully aware of the dangers of the World Health Organization Pandemic Treaty. The warning is made that the World Health Organization (WHO) is hardly in a good position to give global health governance, even if that was a good thing, which it is not, as WHO failed in the Covid plandemic. WHO did not warn the world soon enough about the existence of Covid, and was active against the Wuhan lab leak hypothesis, due to the influence of the CCP upon WHO. WHO championed the Big Pharma vaxxes, totally uncritically, even though the vaxxes were experimental, and did not adopt the precautionary principle, when it should. Now it is seeking to have the complete say over future plandemic health policies of nations, which will, given its subservience to Big Pharma, involve mandatory vaccination of the entire world. It is an assault upon freedom unlike anything we have ever seen, and there is only until May 2023 to stop this.

Here is an update, with a lengthy set of news references dealing with the issue of athletes across the world, dying suddenly. The athletes range from school sports to full professionals, and as far as known, all have had at least one Covid vax. The death rate is significant: from 1970 to 2020, 1312 athletes died from cardiac arrest, but from 2021 to 2022, 1598 died from cardiac arrest. That in itself is extraordinary. The “explanation” that there is some lack of medical services due to lockdowns, used to deal with non-athletes, dying suddenly, won’t hold here as athletes are the fittest people in society, and young, and did not suffer from this level of heart attacks before. It is a very good argument for the smoking gun to be the Covid vaxxes. That the mainstream media, and equally as corrupt mainstream health establishment are silent on the issue, should also arouse suspicions.

The Biden classified documents scandal is very different from the Trump one. For a start, Trump was president and could declassify what he wanted, which he did. There is some debate whether a vice president, as Biden was, could declassify documents at all. But, the kicker is that Joe stored the documents in a garage, next to his sports car. And Hunter, who had Chinese connections, some say linked to the CCP, was renting the house, and so anyone could have accessed the documents. But, it is pretty much academic, as given the number of Chinese in the US federal government, there are bound to be plenty of CCP agents, so the Biden documents would have been old news, not worth anything. Still, it is surprising how the mainstream media have turned on the old guy. Is this the end of his reign, or will he walk through this one as well? Who knows in a totally corrupt society.

This is very interesting and shows the great inconsistency in the Covid narrative. Face masks became something of a religious relic of the Covid cult, and today one can still see people religiously wearing them all day. Go to see a GP and you will probably need to wear one. Yet, back in 2003, the mainstream press published warnings from the government that those claiming that face masks protected against viruses faced fines. One such article, referenced below, appeared in The Age, and stated that medical authorities believed that those pretty blue masks were only good for about 20 minutes, after which, moisture from breathing allows the bugs to roll on through. So, what changed over the time since then and Covid? Clearly nothing. In fact, as I have reported over coverage of the plandemic, the evidence shows that masks are ineffective at stopping the virus. It was all about social control.

Am I the only conservative journalist, of sorts concerned about the world sliding into nuclear war? Looking at the output of the movement, I do not see much concern about this, as everyone keeps in their comfort zone, doing what they normally do. But, a nuclear war would have the inconvenient side-effect of blasting everyone out of that cosy, safe space. Consider: deputy prime minister and head of Putin’s presidential administration, Vyacheslav Volodin, someone who would know what Russia is up to has said: ““If Washington and NATO countries supply weapons that will be used to strike civilian cities and attempt to seize our territories, as they threaten, this will lead to retaliatory measures using more powerful weapons,"

In a Telegram message he warned: “Arguments that the nuclear powers have not previously used weapons of mass destruction in local conflicts are untenable. Because these states did not face a situation where there was a threat to the security of their citizens and the territorial integrity of the country."
He added "Deliveries of offensive weapons to the Kyiv regime will lead to a global catastrophe.”

I had thought about this, but had not articulated it before; that climate change princess Greta Thunberg is really a reality actor. No, more than just an activist, but someone acting out a role, and doing it better than other types like Al Gore. Consider her main claim to fame, posing for the media at the wag school protests, that the media all came to and fed; her speech to the UN, the “how dare you business.” Then there is the recent arrest in Germany that seems to have been set up, as Greta was photographed being friendly with the cops who had bundled her off. Of course, all parties deny that this was all staged. However, off stage, with no prepared script you can see her fall apart on issues that she should know as it is her standard line. All very suggestive of make-believe, which I suppose is what the climate change ideology is all about.

Lance Welton does pieces in Vdare.com on the problems and paradoxes of diversity, responding to a hit piece upon one of his human diversity papers by the Washington Post, saying that the article is “racist pseudoscience to argue that White people are superior to other races.” Of course, he did not do that, but had a more sophisticated take, arguing on the basis of work by Chinese scientists, who still dare to investigate biodiversity issuers, that if you have an interracial relationship between a Black person and a White person, the IQ of the child tends to be higher if the mother, rather than the father, is Black. Welton merely reported on that interesting research, along with biodiversity research indicating that diversity is not a strength. Diverse unions are less fertile:

Optimum balances these  four factors:

The woke system has moved to cancel outspoken celebrity Jeremy Clackson. He has returned fire with an article saying that the Left have launched a civil war against society, one which they are clearly winning. While not saying anything we have not covered, his article is well-worth a read, as he is on the same page as the journalists at Alor.org.  Clarkson was a big name too, so his cancellation shows that no-one is safe from the woke system, if they make the slightest critique of the regime. Just witness the cancellation of Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling, who has been savagely attacked for merely stating biological truths that not too long ago were considered beyond criticism.

While there has been angst about Elon Musk’s Neuralink adding computer chips to the human brain. But, really, this is old news, since as detailed by The Hill, the US Democrat mouth piece, adding chips to the human body has been going on for some time. Thus, it is no news that microchip implants in the hand can be used as a key to open homes and businesses, and in Sweden, for financial transactions. Chip implants is merely the tip of the cyber-ice beg of the Internet of Things. This technology will be essentially linked to the emerging cashless and CCP-style social credit system for social control. There will be a great difficulty in attacking this, since technologies are accepted as the magic of the age, and people are less likely to see technologies as having problems than anything else. To begin, it is necessary to question technology, and not see it as neutral, and that some technological developments are not for the common good.

While we are an information and education service offering no financial or health advice, we can still recommend material raising health issues. Dr Mercola has a very informative piece on the dangers of aluminium. There is probably not much disagreement about this thesis in general, but rather about the levels present in various products, such as vaccines. There is a link between aluminium intake and Alzheimer’s disease, as aluminium is a neurological-toxin. Best to be on the safe side and use a steep frying pan, however cheap the aluminium one was.

Here is a great piece from a former climate change activist, unidentified, who was deeply into the movement, and then managed to deprogram himself and get out. He compares these Leftist climate change groups as being exactly like cults, with all the elements, such as being a total system that blocks out all criticism. This explains the craziness of climate change activism, such as blocking roads, and gluing themselves to artworks. It is a cult that will not be defeated by conventional rational argument, but by the techniques used to deprogram cult members.

Coming right now are carbon credits, the political weapons of the mainstream media, central bankers, and their political allies. While these elites are in reality the main carbon “polluters,” it is going to be the ordinary person who have to buy the privilege to be able to emit carbon, despite the fact that their right to life should have given them. It has never been shown that this is any way saves the environment, or reduces carbon emissions, rather than setting up a grand Ponzi scheme that kicks the can down the road. It will be merely another mechanism to tax, regulate, and control you. Thus, an “individual carbon footprint tracker” will track where people travel, how they travel, what they eat, and what they consume. All so, like Trudeau did to the Canadian truckers, and as the CCP did to their protesters, to cancel anyone who stepped out against the regime. This is techno-dystopia writ large.

This is what we are up against.

The globalists, the Masters of the Universe, seem to be invincible, and it can be down-right depressing thinking of how they could be defeated, given their money and power. And, they define the system, which is not controlled by we, the little people. Yet, there are always weaknesses. The individual leaders of the globalists are not very impressive people in themselves, and certainly from a physical survival perspective, probably have less strength than even the average punter.  More importantly, their ideas about social reality do not correspond to truth, or even consistency. That is where the New World Order will fail, just as communism 1.0 failed. But still, communism is now into the 2.0 phase, so it will take time for the toxins to get out of the system.

We have been warned. Just as the elites did give a gloating warning of a coming plandemic, which turned out to be Covid, now there is talk of an impending cyber-attack. Of course, cyber problems occur daily, with Pakistan being the latest example, but the grid down situation is not said by the mainstream press to be caused by cyber attacks as such, but, who knows. What is concerning is that the World Economic forum panel on cyber-attacks, at 2023 talkfest of globalists, said that a “catastrophic cyber event” would occur within two years. Indeed, WEF founder Klaus Schwab informed WEF attendees and viewers two years ago that a “frightening scenario of a comprehensive cyberattack would bring to a complete halt to the power supply, transportation, hospital services, our society as a whole.” “The COVID-19 crisis would be seen in this respect as a small disturbance in comparison to a major cyberattack,” Schwab said.

The globalist elites are making their home run for a New World Order dystopia, to be built from the smoking ruins of the West. It is delusional, and will fail, but if not stopped, untold damage will be done in planned civilizational collapse.

The medical journal, The Lancet, while established for the purposes of reform, which was needed back in the day, has now embraced the Leftist worldview, with critical race style material, and now Deep Green ideology. A recent leading article, “One Health: A Call for Ecological Equity,” linked below, takes the line promoted by Deep Ecology, of what is called biocentric egalitarianism, that all life is of equal value. Of course, the reference is to animal life, and not to human foetuses, so the relevance to the abortion debate is not addressed, but this could be an internal Leftist contradiction. I looked at the piece and could find no reasoned philosophical argument why a human life is equal to that of a dung beetle, or tape worm. But, it serves the agenda of the New World Order on climate change.

Here is the problem of the elites, in a nutshell. Bill Gates is here in Australia to tell us how bad climate change is, and to promote his Breakthrough Energy company. Ok, but Gates got to Australia, and gets around via a private jet, burning 1,700 litres of fuel per hour, which is more carbon emissions than cows produce from their gentle flatulence. I grew up on a farm in Victoria and admit, I have never once heard a cow fart.

The Fabian strategy involved the inevitability of gradualism, of chipping away at things, until they fall. The Left began this process, at least starting in the 1960s, and today have completed their march through the institutions. With Australia Day coming up, the forces of the Left move once more to attack the symbolic foundations of Australia. The idea is to eliminate all such historical links to the past, so that the nation can be made over in the image of the New world order.

Academic Adam Mastroianni at his substack makes the case that the somewhat common-sense observation that most people are stupid, is plain wrong. Psychology has a field dealing with cognitive errors, errors of thinking, and there are a lot of them. People get fooled by a number of puzzles, even the so-called educated. Sure, but making mistakes does not indicate mass stupidity. Mastroianni goes on to point out that if the masses really were stupid, then how could the human race have survived the extreme hardships of the past? Point taken, but no-one is proposing that people are totally dysfunctional. I think the observation running through much Dissent Right and anti-vax social criticism, is that people are easily manipulated and stampeded into obedience. It would be foolish to ignore the fact of mass compliance by the majority of people with the Covid mandates, which were unprecedented. Yet, as China showed, even the most compliant races have their breaking point, where resistance follows, so there is hope of change.
