  • “The Covid Horseshoe explained” – In a time when the whole world seemed to be going mad it was tempting to find common cause with anyone who rejected the official narrative, but this could sometimes lead sceptics down unhelpful paths, writes Derek Winton for Time for Recovery.

https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-bank-protest-stopped-by-health-codes-turning-red-depositors-say-2022-06-14/

another conspiracy theory becomes the truth…..!

SHANGHAI, June 16 (Reuters) – A protest planned by hundreds of bank depositors in central China seeking access to their frozen funds has been thwarted because the authorities have turned their health code apps red, several depositors told Reuters.
“They are putting digital handcuffs on us,” said a depositor from Sichuan province surnamed Chen, who declined to use his full name for fear of government retribution.
Rights groups have warned China could use its vast COVID surveillance infrastructure to stifle dissent. Without a green code on their smartphone app, citizens lose access to public transport and spaces such as restaurants and malls, as well as the right to travel across the country.

You can view the WEF Covid Action Platform for your self here. The level of detail, planning & interlinking of “solutions” all hidden behind the smokescreen of the “Pandemic” demonstrates that this has been years in the planning.

How to have SEX with monkeypox: CDC releases bizarre guide telling patients to ‘keep their clothes on’ or ‘masturbate six feet from their partner’ if the urge arises while infected

  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tells people infected with monkeypox not to have sex with others
  • But in cases where the urge arises it has issued a bizarre list of the dos and donts
  • This included masturbating at least six feet away from your partner to avoid catching the disease from each other
  • Keeping clothes on, or dry humping, was also recommended as well as ensuring any infectious lesions or rashes were covered

How Convenient: Bill Gates, Zuckerberg & Friends Start-Up BIOMILQ Just in Time for Formula Shortage

Ahead of mothers struggling to breastfeed and a formula shortage, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and Richard Branson invested in BIOMILQ, a lab-grown breast milk company.

Dr. Naomi Wolf: “Tech investors, tech CEOs, they don’t see anything wrong with disrupting human processes in order to maximize the revenue share of a digital product or a start-up that they’ve invested in. So I’m not saying that they intentionally ruined breast milk, but from all the other evidence I give readers, it’s not the first human capability they’ve ruined …”…..

Interesting post by an Australian Journalist…. There is hope for the reconnecting of our communities

[Forwarded from Monica Banks]
An opinion piece from a vaccinated Australian writer:      
“If Covid was a battlefield it would still be warm with the bodies of the unvaccinated. Thankfully the mandates are letting up and both sides of the war stumble back to the new normal.
The unvaccinated are the heroes of the last two years as they allowed us all to have a control group in the great experiment and highlight the shortcoming of the Covid vaccines. 
The unvaccinated carry many battle scars and injuries as they are the people we tried to mentally break, yet no one wants to talk about what we did to them and what they forced “The Science“ to unveil.  
We knew that the waning immunity of the fully vaccinated had the same risk profile as others within society as the minority of the unvaccinated, yet we marked them for special persecution. 
You see we said they had not “done the right thing for the greater good” by handing their bodies and medical autonomy over to the State.
Many of the so-called health experts and political leaders in Australia admitted the goal was to make life almost unlivable for the unvaccinated, which was multiplied many times by the collective mob, with the fight taken into workplaces, friendships, and family gatherings. 
Today the hard truth is none of it was justified as we took a quick slide from righteousness to absolute cruelty. We might lay the blame on our leaders and health experts for the push but each individual within society must be held accountable for stepping into the well-laid-out trap. 
We did this despite knowing full well that principled opposition is priceless when it comes to what goes inside our bodies and we let ourselves be tricked into believing that going into another ineffective lockdown would be the fault of the unvaccinated and not the fault of the toxic policy of ineffective vaccines.
We took pleasure in scapegoating the unvaccinated because after months of engineered lockdowns by political leaders blinded by power, having someone to blame and to burn at the stake felt good. 
We believed we had logic, love, and truth on our side so it was easy to wish death upon the unvaccinated. 
Those of us who ridiculed and mocked the non-compliant did it because we were embarrassed by their courage and principles and didn’t think the unvaccinated would make it through unbroken and we turned the holdouts into punching bags. Lambie, Carr, Chant, Andrews, McGowan, Gunner, and the other cast of hundreds in prominent roles need to be held to account for vilifying the unvaccinated in public and fueling angry social media mobs.
The mobs, the mask Nazis, and the vaccine disciples have been embarrassed by “betting against” the unvaccinated because mandates only had the power we gave them. 
It was not compliance that ended domination by Big Pharma Companies, Bill Gates and his many organizations, and the World Economic Forum… It was THANKS to the people we tried to embarrass, ridicule, mock and tear down.
We should all try and find some inner gratitude for the unvaccinated as we took the bait by hating them because their perseverance and courage bought us the time to see we were wrong.
So if mandates ever return for Covid or any other disease or virus, hopefully, more of us will be awake and see the rising authoritarianism that has no concern for our well-being and is more about power and control. The War on the Unvaccinated was lost and we should all be very thankful for that.”                              https://t.me/freedomoverfear2022

Re: Free speech and Big Brother issues …

At least Glenn Greenwald – who couldn’t get a job in the mainstream press anymore –
understands the significance of the Julian Assange persecution. Excerpts from his recent Substack piece:

“Whatever else one might think of Assange, there is simply no question that he is one of the most consequential, pioneering, and accomplished journalists of his time. One could easily make the case that he occupies the top spot by himself. And that, of course, is precisely why he is in prison: because, just like free speech, “free press” guarantees in the U.S. and UK exist only on a piece of parchment and in theory. 

“… Much of the American corporate media class has ignored Assange’s persecution or even cheered it precisely because he shames them, serving as a vivid mirror to show them what real journalism is and how they are completely bereft of it.

“Free speech and press freedoms do not exist in reality in the U.S. or the UK …The Julian Assange persecution is a great personal tragedy, a political travesty and a grave danger to basic civic freedoms. But it is also a bright and enduring monument to the fraud and deceit that lies at the heart of these two governments’ depictions of who and what they are.”

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/florida-only-state-not-preordering-toddler-covid-19-vaccines

Florida is the only the state that hasn’t preordered COVID-19 vaccines for toddlers in anticipation of their final approval, and Gov. Ron DeSantis said Thursday that he won’t facilitate their distribution, though he said they’ll be available to those who want them.
“Doctors can get it. Hospitals can get it. But there’s not going to be any state programs that are going to be trying to get COVID jabs to infants and toddlers and newborns,” DeSantis said at a news conference. “That’s not where we’re gonna be utilizing our resources.”

I love that man!

Dr David Paton..

Latest UKHSA vaccine effectiveness summary concludes even boosters have “almost no effect” against symptomatic disease > 20 weeks.

VE is better against hospitalisation/death but hard to see why otherwise healthy children/young adults are still being targeted for vaccination?

As far as I am concerned even the suggestion that these injections belong in any body is tantamount to a crime.

The notion that infants, babies, toddlers should be stuck with these poisons is evil off the scale.

There are ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSES.

The evidence, reams of it, is out there.

People have to wake up to reality and that reality is Depopulation.
