Mick Jagger Comes Out as a Lockdown Sceptic

by Toby Young
13 April 2021 6:05 PM

A number of famous musicians have nailed their colours to the good ship lockdown sceptics in the past 12 months, including Van Morrison and Eric Clapton, but none quite as illustrious as the latest addition to our ranks: Sir Mick Jagger. The Rolling Stones frontman has released a song today called “Eazy Sleazy“, a collaboration with David Grohl of the Foo Fighters. “It’s a song that I wrote about coming out of lockdown, with some much needed optimism,” says Jagger.

If you watch this YouTube version of the song, complete with the lyrics, you’ll find a number of anti-lockdown messages:

We took it on the chin
The numbers were so grim
Bossed around by pricks
Stiffen upper lips
Yeah

Pacing in the yard
You’re trying to take the Mick
You must think I’m really thick
Looking at the graphs
With a magnifying glass
Cancel all the tours
Football’s fake applause
Yeah

No more travel brochures
Virtual premiers
I’ve got nothing left to wear

Looking out from these prison walls
You got to rob Peter if you’re paying Paul
But it’s easy, easy
Everything’s going to get really freaky
Alright, on the night

Soon it’ll be a memory you’re trying to remember to forget…

That’s a pretty mask
But never take a chance
Tik Tok stupid dance
Took a Samba class
Yeah

I landed on my ass
Trying to write a tune
You better hook me up to Zoom
See my poncey books
Teach myself to cook
Way too much TV
It’s lobotomising me
Yeah

Think I’ve put on weight
I’ll have another drink
Then I’ll clean the kitchen sink

We’ll escape from these prison walls
Open the windows and open the doors
But it’s easy, easy
Everything’s going to get really freaky
Alright, on the night
It’s gonna be a garden of earthly delights
Yeah it’s easy, sleazy
Everything’s smooth and greasy
Yeah

Easy, believe me
It’ll only be a memory you’re trying to remember to forget

However, lest you think Jagger has become a full-blown conspiracy theorist, there’s a swipe at some of the crazier fringes of lockdown scepticism in the final verse:

Shooting the vaccine
Bill Gates is in my blood stream
It’s mind control
The earth is flat and cold
It’s never warming up
The Arctic’s turned to slush
The second’s coming late
And there’s aliens in the deep state

Despite all of this, it’s still possible to talk to some person well below thirty on one evening and on the next, he’s wearing a really military-grade-looking (paper) face mask to protect him from something (bar staff at Spoons pub in Reading). 🙁

I suspect that the kitchen serves as hangout for vanished bar staff and that he’s very likely not wearing it there.

I wish it were true, but I’m not seeing this grand public awakening. The only real acknowledgement I encounter is people openly stating they’re not taking any more jabs and a clear reluctance to go any further than that in the thought process.

The awakening is here though. Don’t underestimate the fact that this seemingly subtle acknowledgment up on the surface of the conscious mind is accompanied by a turbulent rearrangement down below, in the unconscious, where the real ‘belief making’ takes place.
As for the seeming reluctance to go any further, it is only natural. As a species we are hard-wired to avoid pain. And we sceptics are asking people to willingly inflict pain upon themselves, by facing up to the psychopathy that has engulfed us.
As Desmet has said, keep banging on about it. Persevere. Again, and again, and then some more. Fight the good fight. Truth is a manifestation of Light and has a wider spiritual redeeming purpose that makes life worth living.

I know an awful lot of people who have JRS (Jab Remorse Syndrome) and have woken up to the tyranny that’s being thrust upon us. Others say they wont have anymore but as soon as the global digital ID /Vax Passport is rolled out and you will need updated lethal injections in order to travel then these second cohorts will
crumble and revert to type aka pin cushions for Big Pharma.

The information was hidden in plain sight.

I’m taking the word ‘hidden’ as a verb in that sentence. People in positions of authority must be held to account for what they did and an example made to ensure it can never happen again.

I revel in being right. Right about the LDs, Right about the dead, wounded, injured and psychologically, physically scarred from the LDs. Right about the Poisons. Right about the millions of stabbed dead and injured. Right about the Diapers. Right about the scamdemic. Right about Digital IDs. Right about losing our freedoms, free speech, our jobs, our families, our sanity, our travel, our civilisation. I remind everyone all the time I was right. What Rona taught all of us is that 80% of the pop are stupid, or compliant, or cowardly, or fascistic, or all the aforementioned.

Yes, just like my attitude to it all. What it does demonstrate is how vulnerable society is to the methods used to encourage people to fall in line. A bit like 1930’s Germany in spades, perhaps.

I certainly agree with 99% of your post. I disagree with:

“I revel in being right.”

There is nothing to revel about. What I feel is a terrible sadness at the evil that has been unleashed on the world. Instead of seeking to murder, constrain and control millions why could not decency and a genuine desire to improve the futures of our fellows be followed?

What corrupted mayhem must infect the minds of the psychos who will if they succeed destroy not just humanity but our planet? And all “For a Few Dollars More.”

The dystopian miseries that a reset will bring forward will affect the “victors” too, a bit like a child whose every wish is met at Christmas and by day’s end is so bored that he seeks solace in the discarded wrappings his presents arrived in. They too will become frustrated and bored as the realisation that every whim can be met by nothing more than touching a screen. Where is the joy in that?

Attempting to remodel humanity can only fail. The desire for love, for friendship, for company will always win out. These are hard-wired. And family; the evil attempts to undermine and destroy families will never succeed, this need is part of our birthright. It is doomed to failure.

There is going to be a reset alright but it is our duty to ensure that the evil doers amongst us are wiped from the earth and we must strive to replace their evil with the decency, goodness, compassion and fairness which really is inherent in the majority.

There is one hell of a fight before us.

There is a fight for the soul of humanity. These obsessed geneticists splicing and dicing our DNA have one goal in mind and that is to disconnect our consciousness from our physical bodies. They have no idea what they’re doing and only think of humans as hackable biological entities they can play around with in order to edit out our genetic imperfections.

Exactly. Seeking to literally digitise the human brain is hubris combined with grotesque ignorance on steroids.

I agree HP. My wife keeps saying to anyone who will listen that I was right from the 2nd day of lockdown when I wrote a 2ft long email to my Tory MP and set out what would happen if we locked down. I then emailed him every 5 days for a year putting him right – mostly from the now Daily Sceptic.
He may not have read it all but he certainly was left in doubt that his support for the Government’s actions was wrong and counter productive and would create a financial burden for the UK.
My next goal for the rest of my life – I am 75 – is to fight Net Zero and the cognitive dissonance that is rampant in the general public and the Green supporters.

Yep, I’m sure you’ve heard of Dr Ryan Cole? I started following him early on in this scamdemic.

Ever wondered why not everyone is injured or dies from the Covid shots? This 2 min video embedded in this article explains why.

Well at least discovery is speeding up. Over in the climate nonsense world someone posted this, from 2010

https://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/03/08/the-logarithmic-effect-of-carbon-dioxide/

noting Willis Eschenbach pointing out that co2 warming effect, being logarithmic, fades (or becomes saturated, as Will Happer now details).

Comments include a chap mentioning Richard Lindzen noting that the co2/water vapour feedback loop was nothing more than a theory in IPCC-1…back in 1990.

The money force is strong in this one.

I am a big fan of Willis Eschenbach. His article about the Diamond Princess cruise ship convinced me in March 2020 that the chances of me dying from Covid (as a healthy 58 yeard old at the time) were slim.

You need to review the data in Table 3. You’re using the wrong denominator. To get the correct figures for the “Likelihood of dying with/from Covid” the appropriate denominators would be the number of people in each cohort with and without a pre-existing condition, not the total number of people in the cohort. (I have no idea where you would get those denomiator figures though)

What you are currently showing is “the chance of (having and pre-condition) AND (dying with/from Covid)” which is not a very helpful number. What you imply, wrongly, to have shown is “the chance of dying with/from Covid given that you have (or do not have) a pre-existing condition”. Using the correct denominator would make the changes of dying given a pre-existing condition substantially higher, and the chances of dying without a pre-existing condition only slightly higher. I would expect the ratio in the final column then to be much higher (particularly in the younger age groups).

I’m finding people are trying to ignore what went on. They are not willing to admit they’ve been hoodwinked. It will be interesting at Christmas as I will be meeting my step-son-in-law for the first time since we had a bust up back in Autumn 2021 when he refused to let me into his father’s house because I wasn’t jabbed. We haven’t spoken since that day. The rest of that family are total Covidians apart from my Partner. I suspect the gargantuan elephant in the room will be ignored unless….

It would be interesting to see the same analysis for deaths from influenza and other respiratory infections. I would suggest likely the same, deaths skewed to the elderly with comorbidity.

So CoV 2 was in fact Just Another Respiratory Virus.

197 000 deaths from ‘flu and pneumonia to date since January 2020, just about the same as alleged CoVid deaths, yet not a number you see published.
