Facebook Censorship Goes Even Further Off The Rails

Another mind-boggling in-your-face announcement from FB today (Thursday), below.

Because some members of "FB Group A" used to be members of other FB Groups that FB wiped out, now an Administrator of FB Group A has to review each and every Posting that any member of FB Group A wishes to make for at least a month.

It doesn't matter whether the person was ever a member of any group that FB has wiped out. Rather, there shall be Collective Guilt, Collective Punishment, Guilt By Association--take your choice or all of the above.

The Administrator(s) of FB Group A, besides having to do extra work, has now been put on notice by FB that, gasp!, some of the group members may be "subversives", "independent thinkers", "Enemies Of The State". Be careful, Administrators of FB Group A, if your little ruffians speak too much truth, your group too may be eradicated from FB earth!

FB Group A has also been implicitly given notice that it will be carefully monitored by The Truth Police, by the Fact Maker-Uppers.

Another day, another step in FB being a Truth-Free Zone when it comes to certain topics.

Now, more than ever, back up your FB Account(s) often, and consider simultaneously Posting on other social media sites.

Toolkit For Genocide

The State Of California has an "Employer Vaccination Toolkit", with all sorts of false information and duplicitous strategies to thin the herd.

Employers should consider that the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) is still on the books. Employees of the State Of California should likewise think twice. For those unfamiliar with RICO:

"Passed in 1970, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) is a federal law designed to combat organized crime in the United States. It allows prosecution and civil penalties for racketeering activity performed as part of an ongoing criminal enterprise. Such activity may include illegal gambling, bribery, kidnapping, murder, money laundering, counterfeiting, embezzlement, drug trafficking, slavery, and a host of other unsavory business practices."

Of course The Nuremberg Code also applies to all of the above:

"The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision. This latter element requires that before the acceptance of an affirmative decision by the experimental subject there should be made known to him the nature, duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonably to be expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly come from his participation in the experiment."

Sing III

"And I sing this for the captain
Whose ship has not been built
For the mother in confusion
Her cradle still unfilled
For the heart with no companion
For the soul without a king
For the prima ballerina
Who cannot dance to anything."

-Leonard Cohen,
"Heart With No Companion"

Of Collaborators And Sociopaths

More proof that other governments have an abundance of flatliners.

UK Health Secretary RT refers to COVID passport skeptics as "crazies"

One wonders how they live with themselves. Drugs, alcohol, past or present? Horrific TBI? Or are they part of that relatively small percentage of flat-out sociopaths?

More pathetic, perhaps, are those that swallow and even feed off of the blatant lies that are, nonetheless, repeated relentlessly by the corporatocracy. People in the past who would have seen right through it, but who now have concluded that they are tired, that thinking requires too much energy.

Do those who mindlessly repeate The Official Narrative really think they will be spared should the true agenda come to pass?

Piece

"Our Twentieth Century has proved to be more cruel than preceding centuries, and the first fifty years have not erased all its horrors. Our world is rent asunder by those same old cave-age emotions of greed, envy, lack of control, mutual hostility which have picked up in passing respectable pseudonyms like class struggle, racial conflict, struggle of the masses, trade-union disputes. The primeval refusal to accept a compromise has been turned into a theoretical principle and is considered the virtue of orthodoxy. It demands millions of sacrifices in ceaseless civil wars, it drums into our souls that there is no such thing as unchanging, universal concepts of goodness and justice, that they are all fluctuating and inconstant. Therefore the rule — always do what's most profitable to your party. Any professional group no sooner sees a convenient opportunity to BREAK OFF A PIECE, even if it be unearned, even if it be superfluous, than it breaks it off there and then and no matter if the whole of society comes tumbling down."
-Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn,
Nobel Lecture (1970)
(Lecture prepared for the Swedish Academy, not actually delivered as an address)

Enviable

"Justice Blackmun begins his statement [declaring Blackmun's opposition to capital punishment] by describing with poignancy the death of a convicted murderer by lethal injection. He chooses, as the case in which to make that statement, one of the less brutal of the murders that regularly come before us, the murder of a man ripped by a bullet suddenly and unexpectedly, with no opportunity to prepare himself and his affairs, and left to bleed to death on the floor of a tavern. The death-by-injection which Justice Blackmun describes looks pretty desirable next to that. It looks even better next to some of the other cases currently before us, which Justice Blackmun did not select as the vehicle for his announcement that the death penalty is always unconstitutional, for example, the case of the 11-year-old girl raped by four men and then killed by stuffing her panties down her throat. See McCollum v. North Carolina. How enviable a quiet death by lethal injection compared with that!"
-Antonin Scalia,
Callins v. Collins 510 U.S. 1141 (1994) (Scalia, J., concurring in denial of cert).

Scotland Today, America Tomorrow

If the people of Scotland don't respond in significant numbers, here's a preview of what's to come in the US.

The people of Scotland were fed the same line of [expletive]: Get the vax, get your "rights" restored.

Of course the autocrats didn't consider them *rights* to begin with. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been taken away on such a flimsy pretext


Covid Scotland: East Renfrewshire and Midlothian lockdown decision due this week

Now that the bioweapon--the "vaccine"--is doing its job, the sickness and deaths that are coming to Scotland will be blamed on, you guessed it, those who didn't shoot up.

To its credit, The Herald--don't look to see this in the US lapdog media--provided an informative chart. Under "New Deaths", on all four pages: ZERO! A big fat -0- in every column.

Which in predictable turn will be used as an excuse to force the sane--falsely labeled "vaccine hesitant"--to be injected.

It's "overpopulation" that is the "disease" that the "vaccine" is designed to eradicate.

Strive

"What is the use of living, if it be not to strive for noble causes and to make this muddled world a better place for those who will live in it after we are gone? How else can we put ourselves in harmonious relation with the great verities and consolations of the infinite and the eternal?"

Myth

"One may call the world a myth, in which bodies and things are visible, but souls and minds hidden. Besides, to wish to teach the whole truth about the Gods to all produces contempt in the foolish, because they cannot understand, and lack of zeal in the good, whereas to conceal the truth by myths prevents the contempt of the foolish, and compels the good to practice philosophy."
-Sallstius (Sallust),

Discipline

"In my parents' day and age, it used to be the person who fell short. Now it's the discipline. Reading the classics is too difficult, therefore it's the classics that are to blame. Today the student asserts his incapacity as a privilege. I can't learn it, so there is something wrong with it. And there is something especially wrong with the bad teacher who wants to teach it. There are no more criteria, Mr. Zuckerman, only opinions."
-Philip Roth,
"The Human Stain"

Blanket

"Just think how many thoughts a blanket smothers while one lies alone in bed, and how many unhappy dreams it keeps warm."
-Franz Kafka,
"The Complete Stories"

Bread II

"Less Bread! More Taxes!--and then all the people cheered again, and one man, who was more excited than the rest, flung his hat high into the air, and shouted (as well as I could make out) 'Who roar for the Sub-Warden?' Everybody roared, but whether it was for the Sub-Warden, or not, did not clearly appear: some were shouting 'Bread!' and some 'Taxes!', but no one seemed to know what it was they really wanted."
-Lewis Carroll,
"Sylvie and Bruno" (1889)

Foreboding

"I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time--when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...

The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance."

-Carl Sagan,
"The Demon-Haunted World: Science As A Candle In The Dark"
