“Is the death toll of the vaccines becoming impossible to ignore?” The question seems well overdue.
But it can be ignored a while yet, at least until R V U becomes passé.

Mask Formation Psychosis
Nothing suggests mass formation psychosis like a legion of lurching mask zombies.

If a narrative is distributed through the mass media, indicating the object of anxiety – the invisible coronavirus, and providing a strategy for dealing with it – mask-wearing, then the mass is overly willing to direct its psychological energy towards complying with the strategy. A new form of social bond is forged.

Masks have been used throughout history in ritual to ward away evil spirits. Sometimes the masks are worn to transform the identity to that of the being represented by the mask. Other times the masks themselves represent the diseases that cause the sickness.

People were tricked and coerced on mass to wear masks that they were led to believe would ward away an evil spirit. In fact, they were having their identity assimilated into a mask-formation psychosis in an imposed ritual of compliance intended to wear away at empathy and autonomy.

There seem to be different types who still wear masks:

  1. People who think they work (perhaps ‘think’ is too strong a term) and are still in a state of fear about the virus
  2. People who wear a mask to indicate personal virtue because they are sacrificing their own comfort to protect others.
  3. ???

There are people who run businesses who are still insisting that their staff wear masks, and still have all the paraphernalia in place, including ludicrous “…for your safety, and the safety of our staff…” notices. The staff are on the receiving end of coercive regular memos. It’s a living hell, and the sooner someone cracks down on it, the better. Some hopes!

Including the NCS, within which organisations include staff in their comms strategies as useful tools to get messages out to the public – because you know if NCS staff believe something they were told at work, and feel sufficiently driven to lecture friends and family about it, it must be true and serious.

Can you give some examples of that?

I’ve heard about them being worn by Venetian plague medics, poachers in the New Forest, at masqued balls, and by shamans and in all sorts of festivals but not really for warding off purposes.

Rolls Royce, among others, are developing what is called an SRM (Small Modular Reactor). Because they are factory made they don’t require the massive on-site installation effort required by traditional reactors. This sounds like a good option for easing back into nuclear as the green scam inevitably goes down the gurgler.

I don’t know how people can be neutral (let alone on Russia’s side). Are the Ukrainians bombing Russian civilians? Did they start the war? Sure, their government is even more corrupt than the Russian government (5th worst in the world, compared to Russia’s 7th) but it’s the citizens being bombed.

People are neutral about this war because in a grown up world there is no good guy/bad guy binary. There is only those in power, who win and don’t die, and those without power, who lose and die. The Ukrainian people, the Russian conscripts, the Yemeni civilians, the Afghan civilians, Iraqi civilians, etc etc and so forth, rinse and repeat, all die because people far away who have power over them don’t actually care about them.

Neutral doesn’t mean you don’t care. It means acknowledging that this isn’t a movie, its real. The situation is far to complicated to be reduced down to “I support blah blah”. And we can’t do a blessed thing about it. Because we are just like them, its just that we are not being bombed. Yet.

Very well put.

I would add that remaining neutral (or calmly objective and rational, looking for the truth) is far more likely to end the trauma for the people than the feverish virtue signalling hysteria of ‘pick a side as long as it’s Ukraine’ that currently prevails.

I don’t think it is bizarre to think that the aggressor in this war is not only the obvious one. I am not a scholar in war but even I can see that this is a war between governments in which the victims are the ordinary people. Winning against the Russian Government will not solve this. It may stop the obvious face of war so we can go back to our happy pocket of “I’m all right Jack” but it won’t stop the killing of civilians.

You say: “Do what you like, mate. Just be sure your insurance covers you for it…” Most don’t, apparently – and, unless you have specific ‘lodger insurance’ you might find yourself in a bit of a jam.

Unless, of course, you don’t want him to and want to put him off, in which case you might direct them to the pictures of the first arrivals in Ireland, which may come as a bit of a shock to those expecting strapping young blondes and their offspring.

Once you accept people in to your home have you got the right to kick them out? What if they challenge your eviction?

Yes, the Ukrainian’s have been bombing the Russian speaking people of the Donbass region for years with tens of thousands killed. Where’s your virtuous indignation about that? Not that you ever knew about it.

With around 1,500 civilian deaths since the beginning of the invasion, if the Russians are targeting civilians they are not very good at their job.

Well, we used to be on Saddam Hussein’s side when he was invading and bombing Iran… then later we hunted him down and hanged him.

Nicolae Ceaușescu was fated by the Government, given a State banquet by the Queen, then when his people shit him no tears were shed.

Jimmy Saville was everybody’s darling – then he wasn’t.

It pays not to join the good guy/bad guy game with all the naïve stupids; to be neutral, then you don’t look a fool in due course.

”People will riot if another lockdown is enforced” like a mangy dog with an old bone, they just cannot leave it alone. There are reportedly 11,595 patients in English NHS hospitals with a +ve covid test result, this is about 1/3rd of the max figure for 2021. So far for 2022 the ONS has been reporting weekly total registered death figures below the 5 year average. So pretty much nothing going on but still they mither on about covid and restrictions. I only hope that when free covid tests end at the end of March we will see a decline in the reported ‘case’ numbers.

It’s a trust thing, I think? Generations of people who have, by and large, trusted the government and done what they are told. But, when they are told that it’s okay to relax the mask mandate because they’re of limited value, and then they see the NHS (who after all are the health people for the country) all insisting that, like them, you should wear a mask at all times, a degree of uncertainty manifests and people cling to what they believe is the right thing to do… and so they carry on.

Ukraine news:

President Zelensky is to address the Israeli parliament today. As I understand it, the said parliament is in recess and many of its members are away attending to their affairs either in occupied Palestine or in other countries around the world, but never mind that – the point of the effort doesn’t concern “parliamentary democracy”. Zelensky’s speech will be shown on live TV and on a big public screen in Tel Aviv. Presumably the audience in front of the big screen in Tel Aviv will be shown on live TV too. (Think “synergy”.) OK, it won’t be as big as the 1961 Eichmann trial which was screened live to schools, but this is still big – both in Israel and in the world’s organised Jewish community.

Here is an article by Bernard-Henri Levy published in the Britain-based Jewish Chronicle, calling for a “no-fly zone” over the Ukraine, i.e. calling for WW3.

Speaking of Monsieur Levy: somebody is destabilising France right now. I don’t mean on a scale of years or even months… I mean short-term, on the scale of days and weeks, and focused on Corsica. Yvan Colonna’s getting attacked in prison was no accident. The latest is that he is “between life and death”. That is the hallmark of destabilisation. Somebody is exerting serious power here. “I can do what I like. I can make THIS happen, or I can STOP it from happening. So you’d better do exactly what I say.” (Cf. the Monica Lewinsky story with USA President Clinton for a classic example of this kind of operation.)

Somebody’s doing a “Catalonia” on Corsica, mutatis mutandis of course – and there is scope for a much more powerful (and rapid) explosion of violence in Corsica (as ongoing events and the Paris government’s reaction to them show) – and not just in Corsica but related to Corsica, which suits the instigators down to the ground.

Don’t be surprised if there is story soon from Dnipro in the Ukraine too – one involving a “wicked” provocation and a highly “specialist” evacuation.

Will it only be the Ukrainian president, Volodomyr Zelensky, who appears on screens today in Israel?

According to the BBC this morning, Zelensky will stress his Jewishness.

So I was wondering whether the Ukrainian prime minister (Denys Shmyhal), foreign minister (Dmytro Kuleba), defence minister (Oleksii Reznikov), or health minister (Viktor Liashko) might appear too, because they would all be able to speak similarly..

Wow! Zelensky wore a cross on his tee-shirt when he addressed screens in Israel today!

The following is from the Times of Israel. It suggests there is a major division among among the rulers of Israel at the moment regarding the Ukraine and Russia. But if (when) a decision is taken it will be kept to – there will be effective unanimity (as usual). That has always been the case throughout Israeli history.

Remember – an events or event in Dnipro (formerly Dniepropetrovsk) could crystallise the position fast. Air strikes against that city started about a week ago.

In a caustic address to Knesset members on Sunday, during which he repeatedly invoked the Holocaust and criticized Israel for failing to arm his country, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky pleaded for help defending against a Russian “final solution” for his people.

(…) Zelensky said Ukraine and Israel face the same threat from their respective enemies — “the total destruction of our people, our state, our people, our state, our culture, even the name: Ukraine, Israel.”

Zelensky, who is Jewish, noted that February 24 — the date Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine — was also the date on which the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, the Nazi party, was founded in Germany in 1920. “It destroyed entire states and tried to carry out genocide,” he said.

On February 24, 2022, he said, “102 years after the Nazis, the order was given to begin the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has already killed thousands of people and left millions without homes. They’ve become refugees… in dozens of countries.

“Our people are now wandering the world, searching for a place, just as you once wandered… seeking security, trying to stay alive, and in peace. Exactly what you have sought,” said Zelensky.

“The Russian invasion of Ukraine is not a military operation as it’s presented in Moscow,” he added. “It is an all-out war, illegitimate, intended to destroy our people, our country, our cities, our culture and our children. Everything that makes Ukrainians Ukrainians.”

(…) Zelensky questioned specifically why Israel has not provided weapons to Ukraine nor imposed sanctions on Russia. He said that Israel’s Iron Dome rocket defense system is considered the best in the world — apparently referring to Israel’s unwillingness to supply it to Ukraine, as Zelensky had previously requested.

(…) Ukrainians made their choice 80 years ago. We saved Jews and that’s why there are Righteous Gentiles among us,” added Zelensky, seemingly ignoring the complicity of some Ukrainians in the Nazi extermination plan.

(…) Ukraine has repeatedly pushed Israel for more support since Russia launched its invasion. But Israel has been seeking to avoid antagonizing Russia, which has a strong presence in Syria, where Israel carries out military action against Iran-linked groups.

There have been numerous apparent ups and downs in Kyiv’s relations with Jerusalem in recent days, with Ukraine at times lauding Israel’s diplomatic and humanitarian efforts and at other times strongly criticizing its reluctance to help more than it had done.

(…) Following his speech, several Israeli lawmakers criticize Zelensky for drawing comparisons between the Holocaust and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Hebrew media outlets quoted unnamed senior ministers railing at Zelensky’s “outrageous comparison.”

(…) “Zelensky also distorted the part his country played in the murder of Jews” during the Holocaust, they said, according to the Ynet news site.

A number of MKs from the far-right Religious Zionism party also criticized Zelensky, with party leader Bezalel Smotrich slamming the Holocaust comparisons and accusing the Ukrainian leader of trying “to rewrite history and erase the involvement of the Ukrainian people in the extermination of Jews.”
