The New York Times finally admits that the case-demic may be phony

In this piece: Your Coronavirus Test Is Positive. Maybe It Shouldn’t Be:

Basically, the type of test being used everywhere is giving a simple yes/no answer to the question of whether someone is infected, regardless of whether the test is being triggered by the live virus or a mere fragment. The tests also cycle the genetic material collected from a person. The more cycles, the greater the odds of a test to come back positive:

“Officials at the Wadsworth Center, New York’s state lab, have access to cycle threshold values from tests they have processed, and analyzed their numbers at The Times’s request. In July, the lab identified 794 positive tests, based on a threshold of 40 cycles.

With a cutoff of 35, about half of those tests would no longer qualify as positive. About 70 percent would no longer be judged positive if the cycles were limited to 30.

In Massachusetts, from 85 to 90 percent of people who tested positive in July with a cycle threshold of 40 would have been deemed negative if the threshold were 30 cycles, Dr. Mina said. “I would say that none of those people should be contact-traced, not one,” he said.

Other experts informed of these numbers were stunned.

“I’m really shocked that it could be that high — the proportion of people with high C.T. value results,” said Dr. Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Global Health Institute. “Boy, does it really change the way we need to be thinking about testing.”“

Destructive, authoritarian policy is being enacted based on the results of these faulty tests.

 

In Kenosha, a hellmouth vents

There’s something very Shakespearian about all that’s happened over the past six months. “Beware the Ides of March”, warns the soothsayer in Julius Caesar. Casca says he has seen lions stalk the streets by night, and men on fire but not affected by the flame.

Here In the real world, In mid-March, and based on little evidence and much fear, our government recklessly flung our priceless social world into the abyss. Chaos and destruction ensued. Locked down, the social world fractured, quaked, and tore itself apart. The class that supported this course of action ignored the effects because, of course, they weren’t effected. The victims of lockdowns were voiceless.

In Romeo and Juliet, Tybalt kills Mercutio under a “boiling sun” during the dog days of late summer. “A plague o’ both your houses!” says Mercutio as he succumbs. Romeo, upon killing Tybalt in murderous vengeance, laments that “I am Fortune’s fool!” Many know the feeling now, and a similar sentiment will be felt by all when we truly understand what’s been forfeited for what is appearing to be an utter lie.

We’ve lived through a summer of death and decay. The lockdowns may have dealt the modern world a mortal wound, we may have fallen below the event horizon, where nothing we can do will bring us out of inevitable collapse. The strangest thing is that it happened so suddenly, which makes one wonder how the human race ever came so far in the first place.

Hellmouths of re-barbarization are venting all over the country. People reverting to their evolutionary programming are stalking the streets.  This primitivism is also manifesting in authoritarian Puritanism surrounding the phony pandemic. Far too many people are beginning to take too cancerous an interest in the personal conduct of others, policing each other for signs of non-conformity. The punishment they dole out is severe: violence, public shaming, “cancellation”. The great evil of our primitive nature is awakening in far too many people.

The Kenosha violence is just one example. It will continue. And it’s no coincidence that this violent upheaval has begun only months after the most devastating social policy ever enacted was put into effect.

All of this brings me back to the famous passage in Edmund Burke’s book on the French Revolution:

”When the age of Miracles lay faded into the distance as an incredible tradition, and even the age of Conventionalities was now old; and Man’s Existence had for long generations rested on mere formulas which were grown hollow by course of time; and it seemed as if no Reality any longer existed, but only Phantasms of realities, and God’s Universe were the work of the Tailor and the Upholsterer mainly, and men wore buckram masks that went about becking and grimacing there,—on a sudden, the Earth yawns asunder, and amid Tartarean smoke, and glare of fierce brightness, rises Sansculottism, many-headed, fire-breathing, and asks: What think ye of me?“

We are witnessing the death of the modern world in real time. Maybe it doesn’t have to be inevitable, maybe it does. But it should be remembered that it wasn’t a natural death. This was murder.

A true epidemic: 1 in 59 U.S. children diagnosed with autism

They are not handling COVID hysteria well, and won’t handle the pandemic fundamentalism well at all when they go back to school.

Violence against the mentally disabled by teachers and other students was already tragically high before the COVID madness began. What will it be like this year, when these children refuse to comply with the ridiculous demands made of them?
