💥🇸🇪The Sweden “Problem” SOLVED!🇸🇪💥 Or, how does a biased world rid itself of the best example of a non-lockdown control for its horrible lockdown experiment? Simple! CHANGE THE DATA.

Just some quick observations on the Fauci circus: 1: I am so tired of folks describing him as a “public servant.” A guy making $400k+ a year for decades along with commissions, awards, and lord knows what other kickbacks is no servant, other than to himself.

2: Name one beneficial thing Fauci has done for the public. Even if you can think of something, net it against the Covid and AIDS debauchery. Not the kind of “servant” anyone needs.

The most important phrase in science shouldn’t be, “eureka that’s it!” But instead, “hmm, that’s funny…” I heard Bret Weinstein say this in a podcast (link at end). So how many “that’s funny…” items can we generate for the Covid deception? I’ll start with a few:

“it’s all made up history to create made up pretext… “the ukraine” seems a particularly bad example of this about which an extraordinary number of people seem to have very strong opinions based on what could charitably be described as “very few facts and even less perspective”

THIS is why I bailed from academia. (Perhaps I should be thankful for this racket 😉). In any case, at the large state U I was PostDoc-ing at, I quickly learned that teaching students was the last thing on the minds of the U admin. Skimming large cash grants… 1/4
Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60%+ that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.

…was the primary objective. Work your butt off applying for a gov grant (including navigating the corrupt peer review gauntlet), and if awarded $1M the U skims $500k (or more) for “overhead.” So where do you think the U’s loyalties lie? It’s NOT… 2/4

As an amateur musician, I gotta agree. That had no redeeming value whatsoever other than the Buick GNX. Not creative. Not catchy. No clear talent of any kind. Now Ted I saw at the Civic Arena in 1980. THAT was entertaining. Tarzan vine, loin cloth and stacks of Marshalls.
hey Kendrick Lamar you suck!

Moderna CEO: “we believe the world would have been a better place if there had been an mRNA factory in China when COVID happened.” Uh huh. So much to unpack there, eh? Meanwhile, WSJ headline today: “Moderna gambling on China while other US cos pull back” Riiight.

Since early ‘20, the acid test for me has been to pay attention to the folks w verifiable real world credentials whose speaking out put they and their careers at the greatest risk, and who are immediately censored/banned/scorned. Mike Yeadon is exhibit A. He released a vid today

You may not agree with all of Mike Yeadon’s conclusions but it’s difficult to disagree with his “mistakes were not made” assertion. This whole thing continues to stink worse than a half can of sardines lost under the seat of a 72 Ford Pinto in August. ->

“New” “study” claims millions saved by vax. We debunked any possibility of this many moons ago by using simple math and logic. Shocking that the author of this new work is Prof Ioannidis.
Replying to @profnfenton
This method of modelling has never shown reliable results. "Thus, by overestimating both the mortality caused by Covid, and how effective the vaccines were, the authors of this article came up with obviously incorrect conclusions about how many Covid deaths were prevented by the injections. Perhaps such glaring errors are not entirely surprising given the notable conflicts of interest involved: the paper was partially funded by organisations known to be vaccine advocates..." ~ Thomas Verduyn and @TTBikeFit, 2 April 2023 pandata.org/it-is-impossible…

The curse of dimensionality as it applies to GOF (article linked last) “The complexity of the relationship between genotype and phenotype is too great and too poorly understood to make the deliberate act of engineering the pathogenicity of viruses ever reliably achievable.” ->

“Due to ‘the curse of dimensionality’, only the breadth of natural evolution could deliver the time and space needed for this.” I.e., tinkering in a lab does not a viable entity create until said entity survives nature’s innumerable and unpredictable trials. ->

This is RFK Jr’s opportunity to make a historic beneficial and massive difference. I was lucky enough to be on a Zoom call with him and just a few other interesting folk in ‘21. He only knew one of us. But he was genuine, happy to engage and was well and truly pissed off. 🇺🇸💪🏾💥
This is what RFK Jr will do as Secretary of HHS. 🧵

Gato’s latest article is very interesting. “DC has never seen a mob of high function autist builders and fin warriors coalesce before. they have no fricking idea what's coming. they cannot possibly know.”

“it’s essentially inconceivable how much such people can get done when they set their minds to it, how many rules they will disprove, break, or ignore and how many paradigms they will upend.”

“rubes will happily believe damn near anything in order to avoid admitting that they have been played for rubes.” That’s it - the explanation for the military-grade cognitive dissonance blaming and crying erupting from the Kool-Aid class right now. It explains everything.

Doesn’t matter if you dislike Trump. This is about hiring someone to do a dirty job: putting an end to the rampant abuse neatly depicted here. It’s long but click anywhere and share the truth bomb with a friend who thinks it’s just a personality contest. youtu.be/99uL8KYxBI4?si=z-Sn…

Correct - but Instead of doing nothing, they took it to the opposite extreme - exploiting it to gain power, deny rights, exert control, and grease cronies with funny money printed at furious rates. 80-90% of the public bought it.
The right thing to do about Covid was nothing, and that was precisely the problem. Doing nothing is very difficult. ...

Accurate.
i think people are really misunderstanding the trump phenomenon. trump is not the savior. he’s not our idol, our favorite person, or the guy we want to borrow power tools from. “the donald” is the agent of nemesis called down by the hubris of soychild leviathan playing at totalitarianism and trying to call it joy. welcome to the age of genghis trump.

Proof that the US Gov conducted a propaganda campaign (PR agency) to force vax and masks on us (especially kids) and keep schools closed. Exaggerated C19 danger and vax and mask efficacy. We knew all along of course. The unmentioned bit is there was never a pandemic. Now ask why.
The House report on HHS covid propaganda is devastating. The Biden admin spent almost a billion dollars to push falsehoods about covid vaccines, boosters, and masks on the American people. If a pharma company had run the campaign, it would have been fined out of existence. 1/23

So the msm talking points go like this: 🙄Trump only helps the rich 🙄Kamala will stand up for the middle class Not what the data show. During Trump spending levels among different income groups grew at the same rate. Under Biden/Harris the rich win, the poor lose.
