Sometimes a conspiracy theory is actually fact.

 

I have the opinion that it was a test to see how much control the sheeple would tolerate before they rebelled. Overlords 1 sheeple 0.

 

I'm not a scientist so I can not prove that the vaccine ( apart from not being very effective ) isn't what it is claimed to be, but it's a fact that I didn't catch covid till AFTER I had the vaccine ( basically forced to do so ). Even the flu jab requires only one dose per year, unlike the covid one which requires a booster every 5 minutes and then doesn't actually stop one getting sick. I guess I'm lucky that the flu jab does work.

In my opinion the Overlords ultimately failed.  The people did rebel as evidenced by the massive protests in every western country against forced shots and penalties if resisted.  Towards the end Austria was a case in point.  They were ready to roll out stiff penalties for those who would defy their tyrannical edict.  They caved shortly before it was to go into effect.

The Overlords certainly had success early on.  But in the end they failed.  Accountability comes next.

Thanks and yes, Jeff Childers on his free Coffee&Covid substack Newsletter always provides very to the point background and comments on the news events of the day. 

 

@rumak I just read one of the best insightful articles on 'Covid-vaccines' that I ever came across. 

> https://www.midwesterndoctor.com/p/why-does-the-covid-vaccine-persist

Highly recommended.

 

And here's the chart from the peer reviewed study which successfully challenges all arguments for the continued use of the mRNA gene editing therapy.

There are those here who staunchly promote the mRNA gene editing therapy for one major reason and one major reason only; they've take the entire regimen of shots and are still breathing with zero perceivable side effects.  Thus their conclusion that the drug is safe is unassailable in their view.  They are, after all, the living proof of the drug's harmlessness.

What they fail to consider, or perhaps purposely ignore, is the fact that no bad drug ever kills all who take it.  But this chart makes defending the continued use of the Covid "vaccine" to be insanely irrational.  And just as insanely irresponsible.

Admittedly, it looks to be a pretty chart, coloured very nicely.  Now show me in quantifiable terms the impact the WHO had on reducing the loss of life during the pandemic.

This one is interesting:

I know what they didn't do.  Which would have been to take the common sense action of assembling health experts from multiple fields with various backgrounds from around the globe to bang heads together to seek remedies and mitigation strategies.

The WHO failed badly on the most common sense action they should have taken.  In fact they acted against common sense and went in the opposite direction.  Instead of working with those who were actively seeking mitigations other than the mRNA gene therapy they focused on denouncing those who did have successes.  And they did nothing to quell the active suppression of those good people who were experiencing success.  Rather, as they themselves show in their pretty chart, they jumped on the bandwagon of suppression.  Go ahead and defend the indefensible if you like.

The WHO pushed the mRNA gene therapy solution as the only solution just as much as pharma, who had much to gain, did.  Why?  If you wish to argue that in a world where there is always more than one way to skin a cat that in the case of the pandemic the mRNA gene therapy was the only solution possible in all of existence then by all means, knock yourself out convincing yourself of that.  But you won't convince me.  I'm of the opinion that the mRNA gene therapy was pushed as the only solution for a number of nefarious reasons, for which volumes of evidence exist that you refuse to look at.  And as long as you refuse then you cannot consider yourself to be an objective analyst.

Neither did I see any effort by the WHO whatsoever to assemble information from around the globe to see what countries were experiencing success and promote their best practices.  Sweden, for instance.  Or those countries who were dispensing Ivermectin to their citizens, whilst the entire West was in unnatural lockstep to ban it.

On a final note, if a person or entity is accused of failure, or even malfeasance, that person or entity would be the last whom I would be asking for explanations and then taking their explanations as gospel truth.  That goes against all common sense.  But here you are, slavishly doing just that.

Anyway, dispense with all of the pretty charts and stacks of reports produced by the culprits themselves.  Show me some quantifiable evidence of the WHO's efforts reducing fatalities.

@KannikaP

I'm calling it a night but before I do I want to wish you and you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  Seems to me you live it year round.  Thanks for the excellent conversation.

This recent French movie I consider to be a classic for it captures perfectly the meaning of Christmas, albeit under gruesome circumstances.

My wife and daughter went out for the day.  They just arrived home and picked me up something to eat from the market.  One guess as to what it was.  LOL

It's called respect.

More like insanity, why, in this day and age, is a virgin birth even considered as a possibility?

You seem to miss @rattlesnake's point of respect.  For surely you hold beliefs that others would find to be similarly insane and for which you could be ridiculed for believing in.  So, respect.  Respect for an individual no matter what they believe.  Put the other's shoe on your foot and you'll easily understand Rattles' post.

I guarantee that if it were possible to list each and every belief that anyone holds and then attempt to reconcile the totality of one's beliefs, fitting them all together in order to  paint a unified, holistic picture, you would find that the picture created would be strange indeed and make very little sense.  You would marvel just at the sheer quantity of outright contradictions that you would find, let alone the number of beliefs that utterly fail if put to the test of logic.

Satay sauce = peanut butter (home made) Sriracha sauce and coconut milk.

Vino = 2 x litres of grape concentrate from Shopee (Nuboon). 6 litres of H2O. packet of Lalvin yeast (Shopee). Leave for a week, decant it off for two weeks, bottle in Singha bottles, crown caps (Shopee). I call it my Shopee Wine.

I was brought up Protestant, no idea what I was supposed to be protesting about! Top of my class in Religious Studies at 12-13 yrs old. Played guitar in church. THEN along came Paul, John, George & Ringo, more popular than JC was true. Went on to have a long long career in rock music.

My wife doesn't make her own moo satay but there's a vendor at the local market here who excels at it.  And he's very generous with the peanut sauce.  Even after giving each satay a full coating I'm still left with a number of teaspoons full.  And I'm not embarrassed to admit that i wipe the bowl clean with my finger.

I'll have to try the homemade vino.  Do you think Leo bottles will work as well?  LOL

The both of us need to get back to posting on the "Blasts from the Past" thread.  I'm with ya on the Beatles.  Would love to hear about your career, too.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Tipp.

Special wishes for everyone else enjoying the  Christmas TRADITIONS!

Thanks, riclag.  Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family as well.

I can't very well send you a Christmas present but I can give you the gift of music.  The Harry Simeone Chorale's '58 recording, The Little Drummer Boy: A Christmas Festival, is my favorite from childhood.  Most every radio station, at least in the U.S., plays the version of The Little Drummer Boy off of this album.

This is the entire playlist.  The carols are in the form of medleys.  They're all quite short.  But I prefer traditional Christmas music.  Also tops for me are the choir recordings of King's College, Cambridge.  Plug it into YT if it's up your alley.

One thing I love about Thailand is the "live and let live" attitude of Thais.  Westerners, on the other hand, tend not to be able to keep themselves from sticking their long noses into everything and anything that they don't approve of so they can trash it.   I dunno.  Maybe they suffer from a superiority complex.  Or maybe they're just mean spirited.  Anyone care to say which?

Live and live? How many murders have been reported just this week, Thai on Thai?

Just because there are Thai on Thai murders here, no different than in any country, doesn't negate the fact that the general attitude is one of "live and let live."  Coming from the West that attitude was a marked difference that was obvious at once to me when I first came here.  People here tend to mind their own business, very much unlike the west.  Unless, of course, you're getting either robbed, beaten, stabbed or otherwise assaulted in broad daylight on a busy street.  That's about the only time Westerners seem to be strict about minding their own business.

Perhaps I shouldn't generalise by referring to the entire West.  Since my experience is chiefly American I can say that it certainly applies to America.

These days, not much. Only get prezzies for the Grandkids, but must send them 2 months in advance to Dubai, or online via Amazon UAE.

Love some of the TV programs, but absolutely HATE the ads showing dinner tables filled with food, starters, mains and desserts all at the same time, and many in UK cannot afford it. 

For us here, me, the Mrs, her daughter and her 4 year old and her son, we are on Moo Satay, Gai wings and Apple Crumble with custard. Oh and a bottle or two of home made vino.

The Christian religious part of it disappeared 60 years ago, when I realised it was all a Myth.

Now that sounds like peace, joy, good will, love, happiness, and cheer.  If that's how you conduct your life daily then I'd say you're living the Christmas spirit everyday.  Good on you.  And no, that spirit doesn't need to be tethered strictly to Christianity.  Not for me.

You're eating well.  Two thumbs up on the moo satay.  Or as my wife refers to it, moo steak.  Wonderful stuff.  And it never gets old.  I put it right up there with pizza.  LOL  The vino is a special touch.  Invite me over any time.

As to Christianity, I grew up a Catholic.  I used to stay in a Franziskaner boarding house going to school in Germany.  We had a small chapel and I was selected to read from one of the books in the Bible, can't recall which, in Latin.  I dropped out of religion in my teens because too much of it didn't add up.  I therefore don't blame anyone for religion leaving a bad taste in their mouth.  On the other hand I respect those who choose to follow their faith.  I don't agree with them on much but I won't trash them for what they choose to believe.  That cuts both ways, after all.

I do understand the symbolism of Christmas.  There's nothing negative about it.  Unless someone chooses to read into it what's not there.  So I do enjoy it.  As Scrooge would say, "let me keep it in my own way."  I enjoy it much more here in Thailand, away from the commercialisation of it.  Although the marketing companies are certainly attempting to create a market for sales out here.  But even that I don't get exposed to as I'm not around it.

I assume you understand what symbolism is.  Christmas, I'm sure, has different meanings for different people but I'd safely assume that despite the differences the general symbolism is agreed upon.  The birth of Christ represents a gift of hope, cheer, good will, peace, love and joy to mankind.  I'm sure you're not so hardened that you would object to desiring those things for yourself, your family, and the world.  One needn't be a Christian to celebrate what Christmas symbolises.  I, for instance, am not a Christian.  Nor do I subscribe to any religion.  Yet I easily understand what Christmas represents and I say "good."  I'm in favour of celebrating that everyday rather than only once a year.

What does Christmas symbolise for you?  Religious fanaticism?  As I said, Christmas assuredly has different meanings for each of us.
