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). 🙁
Must be something nasty in the kitchen to justify that!
I suspect that the kitchen serves as hangout for vanished bar staff and that he’s very likely not wearing it there.
Also from Reading. Is that the Hope Tap?
Yes.
It’s ‘Our Wonderful NHS’, if you please.
‘The envy of the world’ don’t you know?
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.
And a lot of people cannot handle cognitive dissonance
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.
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.
Thank you.
Yes. Next up:
These jabs are killing millions of people some quickly, some slowly….
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.
https://expose-news.com/2022/12/14/ryan-cole-gives-his-insights-into-covid-vaccines/
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.
This has all the signs of being a snowball rolling down an Alpine hill.
Let’s hope so. And line up all our recently ennobled Heroes Of The Corona in the valley below.
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….
‘ “I told you so!” Don’t tell me there isn’t a slight pleasure in that? ‘
I disagree. It’s not slight… it’s huge and glorious! 😄
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.
