This medieval hysteria is leading us down a dark path

Far lower than the outlandish 4% that caused our current man-made global crisis, and it will likely continue to fall. Did we really just accept an economic collapse and an overnight Police State for this? It’s become almost politically incorrect to suggest returning to our normal lives, and I have a feeling that greater numbers of people are beginning to meekly accept the current authoritarianism as a policy that will never completely end. And how much more difficult will it be to strip the totalitarian emergency powers from local and state goverment?

The regular taxpaying, job-holding, people of the United States, cannot suffer under lock-down any longer. Shuttering the economy has precipitated a genuine Depression, which will have far-reaching, tragic consequences for millions of these Americans. What caused this? Who caused this? And who is to blame for its perpetuation? The experts. The credentialed, pedigreed intellectual priesthood has caused this by recklessly parroting their phony data, bad models, and fantastical predictions. They’ve been whispering their doomsday scenarios into the ears of world leaders, thereby causing the greatest economic cataclysm the West has ever seen. It’s time to remove their influence entirely from public policy, so as to avoid a similar man-made catastrophe in the future.

The great Tucker Carlson lays it all out:

ABC. Wasn’t there supposed to be a coronavirus crisis in California, the first state to declare a shelter-in-place?

Medical professionals may have made an horrible, tragic mistake in assuming coronavirus patients needed ventilation. Now they’re backing off the treatment, as AP reports.

The fuse has been lit on this social/political powder keg. There is no question that it is going to detonate. The only question now is what particular form the ensuing chaos will take. Anger and despair will boil over among those most effected by lockdown-induced Depression, and it will be exploited by a populist political movement to gain power. What will be the response by the federal government to such a movement?  The coming political upheaval will be like nothing the U.S. has ever seen. It will get ugly.

Minnesota senator, and doctor, Scott Jensen during an appearance on Laura Ingraham’s show:

“Right now Medicare is determining that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you get $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator you get $39,000, three times as much. Nobody can tell me after 35 years in the world of medicine that sometimes those kinds of things impact on what we do.”

The psychedelic/therapeutic revolution is here.

Reason’s Jacob Sullum has an informative piece up today regarding a mass COVID-19 antibody test occurring in San Miguel County, Colorado. The findings indicate that the number of infected for the entire country, particularly densely populated areas such as NYC are dramatically underestimated. Between 2.6 million and 10 million are likely to have already been infected with COVID-19 in the U.S., meaning the high mortality rate being used to justify locking down the country and inducing 32% unemployment is way off base.

Now he’s down to 60,000, after initially scaring the hell out of the public with the “millions will die” lie.

The baseless fearmongering served it’s purpose, though. It scared everyone into accepting a police state almost overnight. And now all that surveillance state infrastructure built during the War on Terror will be aimed at us.
