Month: December 2021

How easily it seems we have begun the slide towards totalitarianism. Oh of course it is packaged as being for our good, or at least the greater good.

The latest example is “Saint Jacinda’s war on fags“

“It is a curious irony that the West’s leading progressive icon is probably the most authoritarian leader in the free world today.”

I quote, “It is a curious irony that the West’s leading progressive icon is probably the most authoritarian leader in the free world today. Since sweeping to power in 2017, the New Zealand prime minister has been repeatedly lauded by the London intelligentsia as the ideal model of a liberal, centrist premier. This is despite the blessed Jacinda‘s stock response to every public policy crisis being to restrict or ban the offending phenomena in question. After Christchurch it was guns; for Covid it was lockdowns, with bans on the unvaccinated. Now Ardern has stumbled onto the solution to smoking: why not simply ban cigarettes?”

I was watching a Smithsonian Channel episode on Adolf Hitler the other day. Wow, I mean what an incredible man. Adored by the ordinary people, he almost single-handedly turned the defeat of the First World War and the economic crisis of the 20’s into a glorious victory for the German people. Fantastic new motor vehicles, a futuristic motorway system, railway expansion and new aircraft. An economic revival like no other in history some might argue. The restoration of national pride to a defeated people. What a great man? Er, wait, hold it just there!

All that glistens is not gold!

Hopefully I had you going there for a moment. But I trust my point is made. All that glistens is not necessarily gold. Leadership is a very tricky thing. On the face of it the governments of the world have all acted in the best interests of their people to protect them from a horror of global proportions. But at what cost?

How many freedoms are we prepared to forego in the name of the greater good? How much economic pain? How many deaths from undiagnosed and untreated illnesses?

Politicians have had centuries to perfect the technique of making black look, well if not exactly white, then at least light grey! We are often told that we are given “informed choices“. That was certainly said of the vaccines. But in reality the information amounted to no more than “trust me, I’m a scientist“. I honestly still have no idea what these “vaccines” are, how they work, why we keep having to have more. Trust is a lovely dangerous thing.

In the 1930’s the German people saw the good stuff that was going on, were kept in the dark as to more unpleasant agendas and were reluctant to go against the shiney new culture than was bringing such great results. Socialism is good, right? And what is wrong with a bit of National pride? Don’t rock the boat and we can create a brave new world.

Trust is a lovely dangerous thing

So, I have COVID.

First reaction has to be that the vaccines have worked. That is to say I’m not dead yet and no signs of dying. This is just a bad bout of cold. Slightly tickly throat, runny nose, a dull ache around my eyes, muscle ache, slight giddiness, and lethargy. O K , maybe flu, not a cold! No particular problems breathing.

So to Vax or not to Vax. Well, that’s a notty one. It would seem from the above that they work, at least to an extent. I’ve still caught COVID, but it doesn’t seem to be killing me. BUT. What if they now tell us that we have to get injected every 3 months to maintain immunity? What if the variants keep defying science? What if the vaccinations end up killing us?

What if the vaccinations end up killing us?

Yep, you read right. But no I’m not going down the conspiracy theories route. I have to believe that this is too big to be some planned “Big Pharma”, “Illuminate”, Bill Gates inspired world domination masterplan. Where’s Bond when you need him (or her)?

As I understand it the vaccinations are not the traditional form of a mild version of the real thing, they are “harmless” artificial viruses that should trigger our natural immune system into identifying and fighting COVID-like viruses. But will such interference over time reduce our natural immune system’s ability to fight disease? Have we, in our “follow the science” optimism or arrogance played God and interferred with nature, getting ourselves into an ever increasing dependency on medical intervention?

Someone has suggested that we have effectively introduced AIDS to everyone! That sounds overly dramatic, but if we have introduced a man-made substance into our bodies, there’s no going back, no retrieval system and we’ve done it to millions. Rather like chemo-therapy, is the treatment worse than the disease?!

Well, anyway, there’s 7 billion of us. Worse case Bill Gates gets his population reduction! The planet becomes more sustainable. People can stop gluing their hands to motorways …………………………

Oh, just remembered, GOD! Oh yes Him. I seem to recall there is some kind of master plan, an end times, a winding up (or down) of all things. A return. A Kingdom to come.

COVID passports nothing. I’d better check that my Kingdom Passport is up to date!
