Peter Hitchens on the dangerous COVID religion
Hitchens here does what few have thus far been able to do: correctly diagnose COVID-ism as a new religion. This explains why the converts to this fundamentalist doctrine are impervious to reason. Religious fanatics never care about facts, and will ignore them. Another thing: history shows us that facts are not the all-powerful disinfectant that many of us naively believe them to be. A totalitarian fundamentalist creed could murder 100 million innocents before being overturned by “the facts”. The people around us also are not as easily swayed by reason and research as we’d like to believe. Instead, they are just one good peer-pressured nudge into supporting and complying with a new fascism, indoctrinating their children into the cult, and joining in the moblike pogrom against heretics. Just look at the venom spewed at those who oppose lockdowns and masks. These people, millions of them, are on the precipice of throwing their support behind a total police state. It should be far more terrifying to us.
Listen to the music of the screeching, ruling class propagandists when they don’t get what they want
This is amazing. These goons are throwing a fit because they aren’t getting their soundbite.
As Trump nears his presidential exit the media is in full panic because the golden goose is going away
This noise you hear is their death-rattle
The sounds made when the media beast realizes its about to die https://t.co/BPjkDaM0Ga

Tweet of the Day
I can’t recall another time when doctors and nurses have publicly shamed people for their choices and whine about their workload. Also how many bad decisions—such as ventilator use—contributed to COVID deaths?

Rage Against the Machine joins the Machine
These guys are pathetic, low-information useful idiots. They’re allowing themselves to be exploited because they are morons who only pretend to be anti-establishment. This further feeds my theory that great artists are merely conduits for great art, ordinary people who happen to be in the right place at the right time to become a lightning rod, channeling creativity out of the aether rather than creating it themselves. This explains why so many great artists are, more often than not, utter dunces.
Joe Biden’s transition team has announced they have struck a deal with power group Rage Against The Machine to help get the word out to the youth of the country to begin to follow government mandates on wearing masks and social distancing. pic.twitter.com/NncySeZ9EP

Results from largest mask study have been published. Masks have zero effect on COVID transmission
Masks don’t work, which is something we’ve been saying for months, but it’s now been confirmed in the latest 6,000-person study. Will governors and local politicians listen?
BREAKING: Danish mask study that JAMA, NEJM & Lancet REFUSED to publish was just published in Annals of Internal Medicine.
In the largest randomized controlled trial to date w/ 6,024 subjects, medical masks were NOT effective protection against infection.https://t.co/HyFiQX2qPG

The New Mexico governor has become a deranged authoritarian
This person is an absolute psychopath, utterly detached from reality. COVID-19 poses no risk at all to everyone under 20 who is in normal health. It poses almost no risk any healthy person under 65/70. We have learned much about the virus over the past 8 months. It is not the boogeyman doomsday virus that we were led to believe it was. Despite this, we have actual leaders who refuse to give up their belief in the Doomsday Virus, as you can see below. She is insane on a Heaven’s Gate level, which is frightening because her reality-detached panic will cause many people in her state to panic. This has to stop at some point. The NM governor herself, not COVID, poses a far greater risk to the healthy and well-being of NM residents.
The virus is everywhere.
Don’t go out. Don’t go shopping. Don’t take extra errands. Don’t go see friends. Don’t infect your loved ones. Don’t end up in a hospital.
Here’s what you CAN do:
Stay at home. Protect your family. Protect your community. Protect our state.

At 91 years old I could die from falling in the kitchen or from anything at any moment. But I’d be damned disappointed my descendants abandoned me all alone on perhaps my final holiday with them, over a virus that I have a 94% chance of surviving even at 91. https://t.co/CHBb1hJoh4

The abyssal evil that is engulfing the world, in a single photograph
Civilization is dying, and too few are lifting a finger to prevent it. We are slipping backward toward a mindless and cruel sub-animal existence, regressing away from human rights, from tolerance and freedom. We are allowing ourselves to backslide into a primitive totalitarian mysticism, where viruses are viewed with superstitious and reverential awe, treated as if they are malevolent spirits moving through the air, with our only apparent savior being a totalitarian god-state.
