I thought I’d continue with the ‘scriptural’ trend and quote from Psalm 46. It’s not a bad description of the last 3 years. The ‘kingdom’ that has fallen being that of our previously hard-won privileges and rights. Although it looks like things are back to normal for many (certainly here in the UK) we know they’re quietly fucking things up behind the scenes. CBDC’s, global digital ID’s and passports, grasshopper granola bars, and 15 minute cities are just some of the ‘treats’ in store for us in the not too distant future.
The power they wish to wield in the name of “saving the planet”, be that from bovine flatulence or the next Gatesdemic, is all-encompassing and apocalyptic for our way of life (but not theirs, obviously).
But Psalm 46 does global apocalypse better :
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging
Sounds like it could have been written by one of those demented climate alarmists. Except for the ‘we will not fear’ bit, that is.
There’s that Rigger idiot going on about conspiracies again - the evil Grubbyments trying to control us all and treat us like sheep.
Maybe.
But I’m only following the trend. Catastrophising has become the world’s hobby. If you don’t worship at the altar of the Swedish Goblin, eat your bugs and shiver in the cold, yea verily, shalt the mountains fall and the seas froth and bad things will happen. Bad things, we tell you.
If you don’t lockdown, wear masks, and stop sitting on park benches 47,347,886,735 people will die1.
Fear is probably the most potent tool at the disposal of governments. It’s also quite a potent tool in general, and it’s a fine line between pointing out possible negative consequences of something and excessive fearmongering.
It is used as a tool of persuasion in another way. Which brings me to the main focus of today’s piece.
You’ll doubtless be aware of the deranged claims that the vaccines saved 20 million lives worldwide in 2021. The people who believe this are definitely a spike short of an antibody. I think it might even have been another of Imperial’s episodic attempts to write science fiction. Some demented modeler labouring under a delusion of adequacy cobbled together some code and the world’s press had a Bourla-esque climax2 about how wonderful these vaccines are.
After the pandemic’s first year, there were, it was claimed, 1.91 million covid deaths worldwide (numbers from OWID). By the end of the 2nd year that figure had risen to 5.47 million. So that’s more than doubled. This rise is a little odd in itself - the general trend is that pandemics get progressively less severe as acquired immunity begins to close off viable infection routes for whatever is doing the rounds.
But the gibbering talkish from the ‘scientists’ claimed that we would have seen 20 million deaths in 2021 had it not been for the magic of vaccines. Magic indeed. That’s a factor of 10 worse - because as we all know, the second year of any pandemic is 10 times worse than the first year!
So for a bit of ‘fun’, I thought I would see what covid “would have looked like” in the UK if we accept this bit of Scientific™ magic.
I took the data from the ONS for deaths involving covid for 2020 and 2021 (for England & Wales) and from week 69 applied a scaling factor of 10 - to see what 10 times worse actually looks like visually. I chose week 69 because according to the government’s vaccine surveillance report about 50% of the over 70’s had had 2 doses of the Goo by then. That ought to have made a noticeable difference because of mRNA magic.
Here’s what the actual death toll3 looks like
There were 53 weeks in 2020 and 52 weeks in 2021, giving us 105 weeks in total for the 2 year period.
Here’s what a ‘predicted’ death toll, without the magic juice, looks like
Like I said, it’s only a bit of ‘fun’, and the methodology of just applying a scaling factor of 10 here is rather crude, to say the least, but it does give an immediate visual impact of the absurdity of the notion that things “would have been 10 times worse” without the vaccine.
Not very much about the progression of the pandemic seems natural. The responses to a moderately serious viral threat (on a par with flu) were anything but natural. What’s more concerning is that the vaccines seem to have completely buggered things up and steered us away from an ‘expected’ natural progression of the outbreak of a respiratory pathogen - not to mention a natural immune response.
We ought to have just left well alone and not tried to play God. In general, God plays God far more capably than we do.
That’s not to say we’re not capable of improving things - a religious person might argue that’s part of God’s design for us anyway. But we need to stop pretending we know stuff that we don’t - and we clearly didn’t know an awful lot about the effects of the magic Goo4.
I’ll finish with a quote from the man who, some say, might have had a rather more direct line to God than most of us
For to him who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away
Sounds like a government vaccination campaign with a nice bit of ‘anti-vaxxer’ discrimination and punishment thrown in.
Figures sourced from the Imperial College Department of Random Number Generation headed by Prof. Ferguson. Which is eerily close to the number of sperm ejaculated by Prof Ferguson as he bonked his mistress during lockdown. We can, typically, produce up to half a billion of these things in one session. That’s a lot of little motile gametes in a teaspoon or so.
A bit of a premmy, if you ask me
And we’re just going to run with it - even though we know the ‘covid’ death figures have been grossly overstated.
We’re not allowed to know that for 75 years according to some government agencies
So there I was at the Parkinson’s specialist clinic this week, with my husband (he has Parkinson’s) and I asked the (very lovely kind and empathetic senior registrar) what her opinion was about cannabis for Parkinson’s (oil or gummy sweets) and she said, “well, I know there is some research but we just don’t know what the long term effects are, so although it doesn’t interfere with the medication, without the long term knowledge, we can’t recommend it’s use” and I mumbled, “bit like the covid ‘vaccine’ then, and we had no problem recommending that”. 😡
The puppeteers of the world have maximized their abilities to propagate fear. The last hundred years or so have shown us all how effectively they wield their marionette control bars, as the audience laughs, and the accomplices work the unsuspecting pockets of the entranced.
But that fear is being replaced by anger. First by those who've realized they've been robbed after they've left the theater, then by those still in the crowd.
Will we be content when the street performer / government provocateur / member of the party shill simply runs away? Or will they be chased into dark alleys, dank basements, boggy river banks and given their own dose and boosters of street justice?
