Jeff, I'm certain you're right in your closing statement: "The concrete edifice of consensus is crumbling before our eyes. Maybe the only truly reliable reality is the Gospel." The only caveat I would add is that I would trade "Maybe" for "Undoubtedly." Romans 1:16 says it as well as anything else: "For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation, to everyone who believeth; to the Jew first but also to the Gentiles." Hallelujah, what a Savior!

At this point the only trust I have in reality is that God is real. Everything else, including the coffee in my mug, might not be what I think it is.

Nothing is true...including this statement!!!

Practically speaking, truth only exists to the extent that it can be verified. Then, even the proofs of the verifications are questionable and the AMOUNT of truth contained is proportional to the verifications obtained.

God is true/real. Christ’s coming to earth is verifiable, many times over. He didn’t come and die for our sins for nothing. The Holy Spirit witnesses in the heart of the believer. Faith is the evidence of things unseen. Faith is a gift from God. Most Bible-believing preachers are looking for Christ’s imminent return.

If you so fancy, or God persuades you, go to kingjamesbibleonline.org.

Read the Faith chapter, Hebrews 11. There is great commentary at the end of this chapter by the brilliant and renowned Matthew Henry, 1710.

Well, Jeff Childers you went one layer further down that Grok was willing to go. I found the requirements for Magistrates and there is something that needs to be investigated. She has been Magistrate for 10 years and 7 months.

According to N.C. Gen. Stat. 7A-177 magistrates must first complete a course of basis training of at least 40 hours and for every calendar year after must attend 12 hours of continuing education.

It seems that if Magistrate Judge Teresa Stokes was unable to pass the bar exam that she also may have been ratio'd at her undergrad degree as well as at her training course and her C.E. requirements thereafter.

I look forward to seeing this being investigated THOROUGLY

This reminds me of a short online search I did back in April of Magistrate judge Sonya McKnight in Dauphin county PA after she was convicted for shooting her ex-boyfriend in the head. That county has a “pass a training course as a substitute for the bar membership” option. She didn’t go to law school and her only experience was working for a school district as a mediator between parents, teacher and student. Magistrate judges are definitely a weak link in a terribly dysfunctional judicial system.

One of my sons has an IQ of 176. Think a tall ruggedly handsome sort of fierce Sheldon Cooper. It has held him back. 20 IQ points less he would still be a 1 in a 1000 person but likely far more socially adept. Another son taught himself to read by 4. Also very high IQ. It hasn’t really helped him. He is less extreme than his genius brother though and is fine socially. Third and youngest very very bright. Not as much as the other two. Not extreme. Very successful, he is the executor of my estate. He runs the family business, has my POA, he is the Alpha now in the family. Giant IQs? Not super helpful most of the time. IMO.

Florida Man: you have made a very prescient comment.

I have spend years trying to figure out what is 'smart'. And I have determined that I am not all that smart, yet I am smart enough to develop 'work arounds' for my many 'not smart' inadequacies. My conclusion is that we must take what God gives us and make the best of it. Also, I think it is easier to spot 'not smart'. And 'not smart' can be of mind boggling proportions such as in the rather invincibly dumb reactions, manipulations and coercions embedded in The Covid Conspiracy.

Malone is a prime example of the indeterminacy principle as to never quite be able to pin down what is 'smart. For example, Malone (at least to me) appears to be light years 'smarter' the vast majority of us. BUT ALAS! And as you point out, he took the shot! And if anyone ought of have known better, it should have been Malone. And if Malone was fooled, then a lot of other people were fooled including many 'world leaders', medical people and so on. Politicians were probably fooled by the droves because politician are probably the most dumb of the dumb on the planet. It just seems that some things just cannot be understood to any firm semblance of satisfaction, like the Madness of the Crowds.

The Bible is a book of Wisdom and the caution against being attached, addicted to the things of the world is probably one of the best of smart, smart advice ever given because if one is attached to the things of the world then the world has Man by throat. And the Man is open to all kinds of psychologically based manipulation based in greed, fear and so on.

So what is 'smart'? I am not sure that I know, but I see glimmers here and there. But for sure, being of the world is definitely 'not smart'. Man needs a moral basis. And lacking thereof Man is opened to all manner of folly.

I think you are getting to it.

I started out with 'Covid' wondering how anyone could believe what was going down (arrows, six feet apart, plastic shields, no mask required at the table in restaurants, etc.). It really was absurd beyond absurd. And like how could any of the so called 'educated class' believe that crap.

Eventually, I had to believe that large numbers, even of so-called 'educated' people, actually bought it hook, line and sinker. And that a lot of those who didn't saw the impossibility of 'fighting city hall' give the beyond reason disposition once the madness of the crowds took hold.

Covid, for example, was the largest act of mass insanity ever visited on the planet in all history. I am still haunted by those videos of empty streets in major metropolises. People en mass bought the pet rock and held it to their bosoms like a heart warming religion.

Jeff, Per your writing:

"The point is, at least half the ads were for drugs. Honestly, over a handful of episodes, I’ve learned more about various awkward body parts and rare conditions that I ever cared to know. Plus oddly named compounds to ask your doctor about for treating “overactive” bladder (um), erectile bending, and even sadness, as well as incomprehensible ailments like chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. According to the ads, if you take the drugs, you’ll hallucinate happy, glowing butterflies that flitter around and help you forget all about your corkscrewed weiner condition."

pHARMa TV add comes on discussing erectile dysfunction.

Grandkid says "Grandpa, what is an erection?"

Grandpa says "Go ask your Grandmother"

It’s looking increasingly like we can’t trust anything the experts or people in authority tell us about ANY aspect of life on Earth. That’s not new to me. My Close Encounter of the Bigfoot kind destroyed my trust in authority when I was 8, almost 60 years ago. Since then, I’ve looked askance at every teacher, politician, physician, and theologian. It’s why I could never finish college after 4 attempts; I always had a sickening feeling that I was being indoctrinated. Now, the only Authority I fully believe is the Bible and my own eyes and Holy Spirit-inspired discernment. Once you realize that pastors and preachers are wrong in their exegesis and interpretation of the Bible, your ears will begin to hear and your eyes will begin to see: We are in the midst of a Seed War with satanic entities. They were here before YHWH put Adam on Earth. Adamites are here for the purpose of subduing and taking dominion of Earth and returning it to YHWH. Some of us descend from Adam, and some don’t, which helps explain why, for certain people, “every intention of the thoughts of their hearts is only evil continually.” It explains why Cain was terrified of being murdered by “other people,” and why there are literally poisonous “tares” on Earth who look exactly like wheat (Adamites), but once their SEED develops it becomes obvious who and what they are. It also explains why God created Earth as a plane and covered it with a hard dome. The dome prevents fallen angelic guerrillas from entering the highest heaven, the abode of The Most High God. Incidentally, the Bible provides all the receipts. Let me know if you want them…

Your retort misses my point. This has nothing to do with “British Israel” or Christian identity doctrines. It’s nowhere near that simplistic, nor is it racist as it relates to human racial groups OR ethnic groups.

If we believe recent science — which is constantly revising its theories, by the way — “Scientists have uncovered evidence that modern humans emerged from two long-separated ancestral groups, not just one.” If true, this bolsters my theory that there were humans on Earth before God placed his Image here in the form of Adam. That means, of course, that those here before Adam did not bear the Image of God. So then, whose image did they bear?

My contention is that, at our modern stage of human history, the divine DNA of Adam (which most likely came from Christ, “the firstborn of all creation”) has been passed down to nearly every people group on Earth (the fullness of the Gentiles?). However, there’s no visible way to know who possesses the Image or how much of it they possess, and who doesn’t.

This is where “tares“—also known as darnel—comes in. Darnel is still the bane of wheat growers even today, because it looks exactly like wheat as it’s growing in the field. The only way you can differentiate darnel from wheat is after it matures and produces its grain, a.k.a. SEED. Seeds are essentially little packets of DNA.

So, those of us who descend from Adam are growing in a field—Earth—amongst weeds that look like us but don’t have our physical or spiritual DNA. Incidentally, darnel (tares) is poisonous. If you eat it and it doesn’t kill you first, it will make you very ill.

So, nobody can claim that they alone are the “chosen people,” because it is not possible to know who possesses the divine DNA of the Image and who doesn’t, or how much or how little.

The only way we can know is the way Jesus taught us in Matthew 7: “You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.”

What is it that differentiates grapes from thornbushes, and figs from thistles? What causes a tree to be healthy or diseased? It’s the same thing that differentiates humans from elephants, and causes humans to be healthy or diseased: it’s their DNA.

And what happened to the tares in Jesus parable? They got cut down and thrown into the fire.

Also, we know from the Bible that Joshua failed to eradicate all of the giant tribes from Canaan. Obviously, the hybrid angel-human DNA of giants went somewhere. It has most likely been passed down into the genome of some modern humans. Perhaps this is where gigantism and polydactylism come from.

Many giant skeletons (8-12 feet) have been unearthed through the millennia, many with 6 fingers and toes and double rows of teeth. Early American newspapers are replete with stories about settlers and pioneers who uncovered giant human skeletons while working their land, only to have the Smithsonian Institute make off with them and then deny their existence (see Richard Dewhurst’s, “The Ancient Giants Who Ruled America: The Missing Skeletons and the Great Smithsonian Cover-Up”).

The transmission of DNA is somewhat arbitrary, meaning offspring don’t inherit exactly the same DNA as their siblings. Even my “identical twin” brothers don’t have the exact same combination of DNA. I believe this is why it took 4,000 years for Christ to be born. It took that long for a girl to be born who had the purest combination of DNA possible to make her a suitable mother for the Messiah. In that 4000-year interim, YHWH gave his people the Torah in an effort to help stem the further corruption of the divine genome.

To deny the importance of DNA in the salvation or condemnation of humans is to ignore and deny the holiness of YHWH. It denies the obvious purpose of “gene”alogies and bloodlines throughout the Bible. It denies the fact that transgression of the Law damages human DNA, and that the damage can be passed down to the 3rd and 4th generation if the iniquity that caused the damage is not corrected. In fact, those who study the science of Epigenetics maintain that bad diets and behaviors can activate dormant, corrupt genes which then can take 3-4 “gene”-rations to repair.

Perhaps most importantly, denying the role of human genetics in the Bible also denies the fact that the blood of Jesus is sufficient to save the entirety of mankind.

I think the largest reason for high prices is the monopoly BigPharm has on the American people. The entire medical "industry" is an allopathy monopoly. There is no freedom of competition in American health care. Our poor health is their profit.

Pharma ads have nothing to do with actually marketing drugs. It has everything to do with monopolizing control of the American media with their ad money. All news is controlled because the media are now addicted to the constant flow of BigPharma money for their "commercials". Thus the control of the Covid pandemic narrative.

And pharma $ is also propping up the campaigns of politicians from state rep to Congress. Contributing to massive war chests that make grass roots campaigns harder and harder to pull off. Got a random solicitation in the mail (addressed to my D mom who gets her mail at my house since she is in an AL facility) from Roy Cooper for Senate in NC. This race has been rated a toss up and his statement that "the price tag on this race could be a BILLION dollars" blew me away.

No. The tobacco companies were forbidden to run advertising on TV, print, or events, so there is your precedent.

Expand full comment
Mary Ann Caton's avatar

Interesting problem there: Tobacco has been proven to kill people, but pharmaceuticals do too, so one would think, right? Corporate personhood has meant that corporations have First Amendment rights, a growing body of law that began with a SCOTUS decision in 1886 and those rights have been enlarged in a number of cases ever since. Tobacco had legislation passed that took away their ability to advertise. And law made it possible for pharmaceuticals to advertise. Generally, but not always, the Court hesitates to reverse bills that have been passed by Congress and signed by presidents. And now that ads have been ruled as protected free speech, the likeliest outcome for pharma is that the regulations written by the FDA will be enforced by the FDA. The tobacco industry was not a Supreme Court case. Will Congress pass a law telling Pharma they can’t advertise? Probably not, because Pharma owns people on both sides of the aisle.

I think RFK Jr. is going about it the right way turning the left's tactics' against them. Make it impractical, if not impossible , to comply with the regulations. If , as I have read, they have to disclose ALL of the known side effects in their ads, they will not be able to do it in a 30 or 60 second ad. The jab was unusual, but 1293 side effects?? They would need a whole show to get them in.

The idea that corporations have the same rights as persons (an insane idea, right?) began in a SCOTUS ruling in 1886 (or thereabouts). That idea has been enlarged in other court rulings since then with the biggest expansion of First Amendment protections for corporations in 2010 in the Citizens United case. There are only two ways I can think of to get around rights for corporations:a Constitutional amendment or a repeal of all that precedent. Neither seems likely.

Drug costs are high because Big Pharma only pushes the latest and greatest. Other well known, researched, and safer drugs (like IVM and HCQ) are ignored (or fake studies to malign these drugs, (like during the pandemic) are widely publisized and governments entities are tasked ("You are not a horse or a cow. Stop it, y'all") with turning public attention back where Big Pharma WANTS it- to the "latest and greatest". Authorities like Fauci get on the paid off (70% of advertising dollars to MSM come from Big Pharma) media to say that there is "no evidence that HCQ works". And you can see paid off representatives ans Senators attacking RFK Jr. now.

I'm with you 100%, Kathleen. After being subjected to constant exposure to TV in two houses during my single years, when I married the first time in '87 my bride and I refused TV for several years - we only watched again when we inherited a set from my uncle, and even then I think the only show we watched was Star Trek TNG. Our friends were all trekkies and we felt we needed to catch up on what we were missing..

Of course, TV is passe now - the Internet has pretty much made it obsolete (by absorbing it) and so unless Trump takes action on ALL direct-to-consumer pharma advertising, INCLUDING the internet, this action will have little effect. Streaming services, social media, Youtube - all these will still happily gobble up those big pharma bucks at the expense of the sanity of their viewers. Heck, I was yelling obscenities at my screen last night over the constant interruption by advertisers!

The worst ones in my opinion are the ones that come on telling us about "poop problems" - I want to shoot my screen when these things pop up. "Back in my day", we were never so graphic about alimentary canal issues. It was "Joe occasionally suffers from 𝑖𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑔𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑦" or some such polite euphemism. Now, it wouldn't surprise me if they show someone in the act to sell their product - it's the epitome of Idiocracy, the shocking exposure to sensationalized but banal subject matter in the crudest manner.

My mental health always improves when I take a break for several days from screens - I even feel a small sense of victory every time I go out and leave my phone at home. I get this "they can't track me" feeling...

I had her stop taking the statins (they had her on TWO!), focused on diet, supplementation, and homeopathy + red light therapy for the pain. She was back to normal within 3 months and her cholesterol dropped 60 points into the “safe” zone.

This past summer, she stopped being so careful with her diet. I suspect she was skipping certain vitamins, also. HAd labs done mid-summer and her cholesterol had shot up 80 points. Doctor freaked out, demanded she make an appointment for a LEQVIO injection. She was given NO information on the injection, just told to show up for an appointment. I did the research and learned this is an mRNA drug. Over my dead body are they giving that injection to her!

Good for you. You are looking our for her better than her "docs". Doctor demanded-screw him/her. I demand you get away from my mother you demon. No way let her get that jab, no way. Does you Mom understand and appreciate what you are doing for her or does she trust those bastards in white coats more? Thank you for watching out for your MOM, you are a wonderful advocate for her.

That’s just it… she doesn’t trust the doctors, but insists on continuing to see them. I now have to go with her to every appointment to make sure she doesn’t get bullied into something. I have repeatedly recommended we find a different doctor—functional med, integrative, naturopath—but they aren’t covered by insurance, so she won’t go. I am very frustrated.

I have gone through the same thing as you are experiencing. You have to be the advocate for she comes from a generation of trust the white coat. We know that is no more for the most part. All you can do is continue with the allopathic and be at her side to tell the doctors NO when they overstep. Here is a link to FLCCC aka IMA docs that may help you. Hopefully you will find a great doc on this list and have one in your area. https://imahealth.org/providers/

Most folks admit that there are drugs with side effects that they get. They actually know that, but it won’t happen to them. How would they think something injected into your body would be totally safe but for a sore arm. Yet they do. Crazy.

I am 99.99% sure that most doctors that prescribe these drugs haven't read the side effects information. They may have briefly scanned the drug company promotional pamphlet that highlights the supposed benefits. I believe that pop quizzes should be given to all doctors where they have to prove that they know what risks they are pushing onto their patients. I am certain that most doctors in this country would fail the pop quizzes.

When my daughter was about 12 or so she was having migraines. We took her to a well respected neurologist and he prescribed a medication that was supposed to work wonders on migraines. When I got the drug, the box had a black label warning on it about using it for kids, for which it was not approved. I looked it up online and found that the drug had many serious side effects and that studies showed that it it had no efficacy for kids under 18, but still exhibited all the side effects.

I pointed this out to the neurologist and he said, to his credit I'll admit, that he was not aware of that!

I rarely watch any "boob tube" now (how right granny was with that well-worn boomer phrase half a century ago). But the other night the 'tube was showing Pixar's Monsters Inc., (2001) which, before Covid and all manner of current alien invasions, I really used to enjoy. Nope. TWENTY ONE commercials during the first break, more than half for Big Harma. 17 commercials the second break and I turned it off. The upside is that it gave me pause to ponder what rancid hell I've been exposing myself to in the name of entertainment anyway.

I don't think people realize what a slippery slope this has been. One night more than 15 years ago the hubs walks into the kitchen and says he can't take having to watch all these viagra ads in front of the girls, so we canceled cable. Of course that did nothing for the Wild West internet that was soon to descend upon us anyway.

These drug ads are nefarious-- anyone else notice the romantic Anime' ad for the anti-psychotic "Fanapt" for schizophrenia and bipolar 1? I mean COME ON. Completely targeted to the poor socially awkward young adults who are treated like raw meat in society. I just can't. We should all just pitch our TVs off the cliff.

SARS-CoV-2 antibodies found in dogs exposed to COVID-positive people

SARS-CoV-2 antibodies were found in 68% of dogs living in households where someone had COVID-19, compared with an overall seroprevalence of 12.2% among dogs in general. Seropositive dogs showed no signs of infection and had been brought to a veterinary clinic for other reasons. "Due to close contact in shared households, pet dogs may be at increased risk for contracting the SARS-CoV-2 virus from infected individuals in the same household," researchers wrote in Virus Research.

From news article Dec 2021...

Tens of thousands of US government employees remain unvaccinated against Covid-19 despite a federal vaccine mandate, after agencies handed out exemptions and extensions to more than 165,000 staff, a Financial Times analysis has revealed.

The White House announced last month that 97 per cent of the federal workforce was in compliance with the government mandate, which was imposed as part of Joe Biden’s push to increase America’s vaccination rate.

But its definition of compliance included workers who have been granted an exemption or extension to the rules. An FT analysis of the figures shows that such exceptions have been granted to as many as 5 per cent of the US government’s 3.5m employees.

https://x.com/andrewzywiecmd/status/1965640170188980523?s=46

Jake Scott was one of about 30 Stanford MDs who signed a letter against Scott Atlas in September 2020 for questioning the narratives.

Let me guess: she was a spy and this was a contract killing (that's one of the many explanations flying around). And what about the countless other people who have been victims of similar crimes in the cities? How about the woman burned on the F-train in NYC? How about the former vet professor just killed in Alabama? How about the five hear old in NC shot by his black neighbor who justified the shooting by saying the child had used the forbidden word? How about the white people beat up in Cincinnati this past summer.

Perhaps if Gemma understood basic anatomy and physiology and how stab wounds work with small sharp blades and how the carotid artery can maintain its integrity for a few moments before a person bleeds out (and very quickly - just look at the video to see the gush), she might not write such an offensive post and reveal herself to be be as sick and deranged as the people who watched this attack and did absolutely nothing to intervene or render aid.

Years ago, a local bodybuilder had a psychotic break and trashed a house a renter in and was standing naked on top of a car when the cop showed up. It took six of them to restrain him . And the guy had a knife. The other riders might also have been frozen in shock.

But for decades we've been told only whites are racist. If blacks can be racist, too, it's the reverse of what we've been brainwashed to believe.

Because "reverse racism" accepts the foundational premise, it should be rejected. But I understand why Jeff used the phrase.

Green Eyed Gal,

If more whites used a bit of common sense and were aware of what’s happening worldwide they would realize that whites are the most generous, least racist and most compassionate people on the planet.

Look at any brown, black or yellow country in this world and ask yourself how diversified are they? How many people of different races do you see in their governments? I never see diversity except in white countries.

Ask yourself how many minority whites have died in wars for the majority races? Whites are vastly less than 10% of the worldwide population. We have fought in the Korean & Vietnam war among others.

Whites have done missionary and non missionary work to elevate the standards of living for blacks and other races in poor countries.

Whites, through their inventions have created a more comfortable life for everyone.

During the mid-90s I spent a couple of years working for the DoD in Colorado. I usually ate lunch with a group of NCOs who were mostly black men in their late 30s to early 40s. One day, the conversation turned to racism. Keep in mind, I am a little white girl in her mid-20s, sitting in a group of black men who have served in our military for all of their adult lives. They grew up all over the country and they had been stationed all over our country and all over the world. They started talking about various duty stations here and abroad, and TO A MAN, they said the worst racism they ever experienced was 1. Germany, and 2. South Korea. Some of these guys grew up in the Deep South and said they never experienced racism like they did in other countries. They said they never left their bases by themselves, they always went in a group, and they never left the base after dark. They also agreed that black people needed to travel to other countries to experience true racism (their term), to see how good they have it in the United States.

Just my experience from 30 years ago, with a specific group of black men who let me sit in on their conversation.

Exactly. It was asserted that I was saying something "racist" when I pointed out that whites have a much higher out group interest and concern than any other race on the planet.

Add to this the diversity inherent in whites' appearances. No other race is as diverse in appearance.

Add to this that it was whites who were curious about other people and went out exploring the world. No other race has achieved that to the magnitude of whites, starting with the Vikings.

Consider the Out of Africa theory. Some people left Africa. Some went east and mated with Denovians. The rest -- whites -- mated with Neanderthals (who allegedly went extinct due to too much empathy!).

White people KEPT MOVING. NOT ALL! Of course not all! But as a race, on this planet, it is the most curious race, the most exploratory, the most interested in innovation and evolution.

Sorry, but it's OBVIOUS.

And that's what "white supremacy" truly means. The race that keeps moving, and shows curiosity and concern about other people -- and making the world a better place. Sure, there have been some blunders along the way, but...

We are where we are as a planet because of the ingenuity demonstrated by the most intelligent and entrepreneurial white people, who are responsible for globalism in the first place.

And now, for whatever reason, whites are being guilted into handing over their homelands to people who didn't build these places, and will most certainly destroy them.

I agree! Racism is just that -racism. What would liberals call a black that attacks an Asian or Latino? It’s all just attacking someone because they are of a different race. Every race suffers from racism.

Sometimes unjustly too. I once had a window seat and a black man was on an aisle seat in an airplane. After the plane ✈️ took off I moved to an aisle seat so I could get to the restroom easier. He gave me a look like I had moved because I didn’t want to sit next to a black man. I was tempted to tell him he was wrong, and that I am a frequent restroom visitor and find it awkward squeezing over someone to get out of the seat and into the aisle.

The young girl would probably be alive if she had went and sat next to the white man that was standing in the video. She had no sense about looking at people and judging them. Her murderer looked dangerous and was not someone she should have had her back to.

I do avoid going into stores, gas stations or other places where there are blacks nowadays. I also won’t open the door to my home if it is a stranger knocking.

The Left should be held accountable, starting with the Lightbringer himself, who have done nothing but foment division and race essentialism the past several decades.

Valerie, I LOVE this. Racism is racism - the idea of "reverse" implies that there's a "forward" - but racism exists in every country in the world - and in most countries it's much worse than it is here - or at least WAS.

The race-baiting that's been coming from the left for decades now has made racism worse in this country. In my young adulthood I had achieved near "color-blindness" after being brought up in a mildly racist household, and then the Rodney King riots happened in '92. OJ was found not guilty 3 years later. Skip forward to BLM, George Floyd, the Texas guy and now Decarlos Brown. I saw yesterday that a bunch of idiots out there were running a GoFundMe for Brown - I guess for cigarettes in prison, now?

All the left's "awareness" efforts have done is continue to stir up hatred in minorities towards whites, and now white people are responding and it reinforces the stereotype - damned if we do, damned if we don't. To quote Jack Nicholson, "why can't we all just get along?"

This is really a myth

"No commercials" was never a promise about Cable TV in general, only the premium cable channels

Cable was originally (1950s to 1960s) a way to get OTA TV into homes that had terrain blocking them from reaching OTA

A fight between cable operators and OTA broadcasters came about where the cable operators would cut out the OTA ads and insert their own ads that they sold - this naturally pissed off the broadcasters and so in the late 60s/early 70s cable was forced to start paying the OTA providers to rebroadcast and to not insert their own ads, which meant higher prices.

Then you had people figure - why not make pure cable based networks and distribute them nationally. Cut out the local broadcasters. Satellite distribution to the hundreds of different cable operators across the nation became inexpensive as more satellites were launched (national distribution w/o satellite was very expensive)

So in the 70s you had the creation of HBO as a premium commercial free network, and then Turner realized he could broadcast his local Atlanta stuff across the country (his objective was in part to get paid to advertise things nationally)

Late 70s/Early 80s you started to get some of the big names we know today - CNN, ESPN, Discovery, MTV and such and they were 100% broadcast with commercials from the very day they began. Only the premiums have ever been commercial free.

REVOLUTION – Youth Overthrows Nepal’s Government

...Governments are collapsing worldwide due to economic instability. My models have been showing that confidence in governments is collapsing everywhere, from Europe to South America, and Nepal is simply another example of this global trend....

Governments fall when the people no longer believe in their competence to govern. It does not matter if the system is a monarchy, a democracy, or a dictatorship—the cycle remains the same. We are heading into 2032, the culmination of the Economic Confidence Model, which marks a period of rising civil unrest, political fragmentation, and the overthrow of governments globally.

Nepal may seem small on the geopolitical map, but its fall is part of the domino effect. From Pakistan to Sri Lanka, from Latin America to Europe, the same pattern is unfolding. The loss of faith in government as an institution has become a worldwide phenomenon and the people are beginning to direct their anger at government rather than against one another.

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/world-news/civil-unrest/youth-overthrows-nepal-government-revolution/

I had to add this observation: "...Nepal’s Finance Minister, Bishnu Paudel, was chased through the streets by an angry mob. Paudel was beaten, stripped naked, and paraded through the streets in his underwear... PM Oli’s residence in Bhaktapur was set on fire, as was the residence of President Ram Chandra Paudel. Spectators say that the youth were continuously throwing petrol bombs at the residences as they burned to the ground..."

Well, a review of history demonstrates that these kind of upheavals happen about every 300 years or so. Just possibly, the "Revelation" of Jesus Christ given to John, "things which must shortly take place", has more to do with an event that has occurred only once in all of human history. That event was the coming of the Second Adam, the prophesied Messiah, and the inauguration of His kingdom in fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy thus ending the Old Testament covenant. Due to our relatively short lifespans, we tend to think that events in our lives are "unprecedented" when in reality, it's all been done before. It's a problem of perspective.

Watching that video of that young woman brutally murdered will forever change you.

The look on her face. Disbelief. Confusion. Fear. And knowing that she will die.

While the other passengers sitting around her look and do nothing.

Two people did finally try to render aid but it was too late.

If it wasn't for X, her death would have never seen the light of day.

Precisely.

X accounts have now posted the entire gruesome video and I had to scroll through because I'm already traumatized by this horrific murder.

I spent 2 months in LA riding public transit last year. I always sat in the side seats near the driver whenever possible.

If you've ever used public transportation in a city, you know why...

Back to the wall & hypervigilence.

Poor girl. 💔😭

I think I am more undone by the reaction of those around her - not about intervening at the moment of the attack, but their indifference afterwards. I just can't reconcile it.

In that vaxxed vs unvaxxed story released yesterday, this really was amazing data:

"Notably, the study found the following:

Brain Dysfunction: 8 in the vaccinated group and 0 in the unvaccinated

Diabetes: 42 in the vaccinated group and 0 in the unvaccinated

ADHD: 262 in the vaccinated group and 0 in the unvaccinated

Behavioral Disability: 165 in the vaccinated group and 0 in the unvaccinated

Learning Disability: 65 in the vaccinated group and 0 in the unvaccinated

Intellectual Disability: 5 in the vaccinated group and 0 in the unvaccinated

Tics: 46 in the vaccinated group and 0 in the unvaccinated

Many questions and loose ends on the alleged murder of a white woman by a black man.Media stoking White Lives Matter. Will black legislators be obliged to bend the knee? Taken from the control of the local police with no evidence of a hate crime.

Root cause…pretty sure HRC wrote her thesis about just that. The Cloward-Piven theory…growing savages by design. An astute observation by a commenter, Litr8r, on Jotting in Purple today: “Unfortunately, she and other Demoncratic elites have been working that plan for decades.”

Yes, same thing is going on with Amazon Prime. Streaming movies used to be free, then they started charging for "ad free" service, but the occasional 30 second ad wasn't too much to endure. Now the ads are much more frequent and come in 2+ minute segments. So far, I haven't seen anything like this on Netflix...maybe its time to dump Prime?

Bait and switch! Again!

1) Paying for an account and now forced to watch commercials.

2) You want to watch a show on a platform you already pay for…you have to pay again to actually watch the show you want to watch.

We’ve been duped again.

Yes! And not happening with only streaming services--it happens with everything. Another recent example is Costco letting Executive members in before us common folk, and pre-scanning their purchases in their cart so they only have to pay when they reach the register. It used to be (years ago at least) that business members got in early, now just executive. Create a pressure or pain point, then float the scam of paying for "better service"--I think status and envy play a role too, and people rush to upgrade their status. I actively look for ways to use companies that aren't pulling this kind of crap.

And also on Prime, you can only get free shipping to the address of the prime account holder’s starting sometime soon. What I’ve seen makes it sound like you can’t send gifts, but I doubt that’s the whole story, I expect it’s to prevent, say, my college kid from ordering something with his own card to be delivered to him at school... but still... wtf. I think it’s going to backfire.

Two day delivery is also going away I hear. Which THAT already started.

Easy returns also going away soon I hear.

That, coupled with being forced to watch stupid commercials - time to dump prime.

It's happened already.

I live in Boston suburb. In the past couple months, it'll say "Prime 2-day" on the page, but when I order, it's 3 or 4 or 5 days.

I'm watching. Needed a personally-motivating reason to quit...other than not wanting to support JB.

Well I’ve used it in 3 different states and many times it is taking a lot longer than the 2 days I pay for. Not every item. Some items come in a day or two. In rural Michigan it’s a week -even though 2 day prime subscription is paid for! We’re paying them but not demanding they live up to their own standards. If they can’t do it anymore-fine -then give us refunds on that subscription. But like sheep we just keep paying them piper 🙄

I sure hope not. I order things like supplements, or a new skillet for example, for my folks and added their card to my account. It’s a pain managing autoships and Amazon messed it up so now I do it by hand, but it’s very convenient in the long run. They’re old and only recently did dad stop driving. Thank goodness his doctor demanded it. They can’t handle ordering.

Anyway, I hope I don’t have to open an account in their name. That would be a larger pain.
