Read Elizabeth Nickson’s Substack Welcome to Absurdistan this morning and enjoyed her list of recent good news (some more encouraging than others but definitely shows progress on a worldwide scale).

Here is one of the items in the list that I found particularly encouraging:

The new right-wing Dutch government led by Geert Wilders is SCRAPPING the climate agenda and instituting the following reforms: support for farmers, cutting fuel taxes, building new nuclear power plants, enforcing strict migration policy, implementing border controls, stopping the building of land wind turbines, increasing motorway speed limits, removing climate subsidies, cutting taxes.

I will copy the rest in a separate comment because it is a very long list!!

What's really amazing about it as they thought they could implement The Great Reset, a scheme that would completely reorder society, without any significant pushback. They overplayed their hand by a longshot but I can't understand why. There's an old saying that if you are going to take out the king you better not miss. In other words, you really only get one shot at this type of thing as failure forever exposes the plan. Did they really think people would just roll over for this? How could they not have planned for resistance?

The only explanation that makes any sense is hubris, and thank God for it. If they had been more methodical, more clandestine, more manipulative, and less arrogant, they may have gotten away with it. Instead that buffoon Schwab stated this is just how it's going to be from now on and normal people said no.

It really all fell apart with the vax, they expected virtually everyone to take the shot out of fear, "doing the right thing", or simply obedience. They knew there would be a few malcontents but they could be jailed or ostracized. But when a quarter of the population said absolutely not under any circumstances, they had no Plan B and the whole thing fell apart. You can't put a quarter of the population in jail, and forced injections would have been too obviously tyrannical. Yet they stated over and over that *everyone* had to get the shot for society to proceed. Huge numbers didn't, and not only did society proceed but the unvaxxed are measurably better off for it.

They planned to use the vax to implement a social credit system which is the lynchpin of the Great Reset. It failed. They haven't given up by any stretch but it was a huge setback for them and just as important, it revealed their plans. We won't be caught unaware by the next one as Running Logic's long list of defiance shows.

I often said at the very beginning of the last 5 years of dystopia: If they would have been smart, they would have printed trillions of dollars and handed it out to people like crazy. Let the people think that everything is going great. Let them keep buying their goodies and their toys. Let them keep going to their sports events, concerts, vacations, etc. Keep energy and food prices super low. Release a "vaccine" that was just saline and give it to everyone (people would have recovered anyway... just like they did), meanwhile, in the background the demons could have quietly shoved through almost anything they wanted while the public was distracted. This would have been an intelligent war against the people. But nope. In their arrogance, they showed almost all of their cards. I pray people keep waking up. We do still have a tiny chance to stop all of this crap. But we have to pay attention. We can't stop being skeptical of *everything*. If we do "win", it is going to get pretty messy for quite a while. Many of us are going to lose our financial freedom and the goodies we've become accustomed to. BUT IT WILL BE WORTH IT.

Ironically what contributed to the failure was Pharma's greed with regards to mainstreaming the mRNA technology. There were too many competing powerful factions all trying to use Covid to their advantage. Tactically it would have been better to use an inert vax (or better yet a pill) to get vax passports normalized, but that wouldn't have served Pharma's goals.

We saw the same thing with the Bolsheviks and all the BLM nonsense. They wanted in on the action too so we ended up with absurd statements from Public Health that people must stay home unless protesting against racial injustice. It was okay to be in crowds to do that as it was more important.

Seems pretty clear to me that the WEF accelerated their plans by probably ten years as they saw Covid as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. They weren't ready and they rushed it. They didn't coordinate with the other powerful factions that also want tyrannical top-down authoritarian control, so they ended up with a series of contradictory compromises that were obviously BS to people that think for themselves.

Again, thank God for their hubris.

If everything was by design then they are fools, their plans failed. Of course we aren't out of the woods but did you see Running Logic's list? Do we have a social credit system in place? Were X (twitter), Substack, and Rumble (not perfect but generally free speech tolerant) crushed? Is Trump in jail? The answer to all of them is no.

When I plan things I plan for success. If I fail then I admit it and learn from my mistakes. They are no different, they didn't plan for things to fall apart like they have.

Take the victory and savor it. This black pill stuff is demoralizing and counterproductive. Absolutely keep our guard up but recognize their weakness in their hubris.

I'm still thinking like you. Why? Because this is not a case of them being opportunistic when a random virus came along. There was NO random virus from nature. There was no "novel covid" virus. The WHOLE thing was a planned psyops and it was rolled out on their schedule in conjunction with the Marxist coup of 2020. Now I'm not saying everything is going their way BUT I do not believe we have seen the entirety of their plan.

I know I know...no one can believe there wasn't a virus. Think about it. How do you prove there was a virus or not? I'm waiting... If there was a virus, how do you account for this?...............................

JAPANESE SCIENTISTS FIND INDISPUTABLE EVIDENCE THAT ALL COVID VARIANTS ARE MAN-MADE

A stunning Japanese study that has evolved from preprint to peer-reviewed publication suggests that all COVID-19 variants were engineered in biolabs and intentionally released upon humanity. First released in August 2023, the study, conducted by renowned Japanese virologists Professors Atsushi Tanaka and Takayuki Miyazawa of Osaka Medical University and Kyoto University, affirms that the push to keep COVID around is part of a nefarious deep state scheme to remove our individual freedoms and control us.

I think Tom Luongo nailed the logic here better than anyone I've heard. I'll try my best to paraphrase/summarize.

The architects of their plans are dead. They died not that long ago. Their kids don't really care about this stuff b/c they're trust fund babies who want to lie around on yachts in the Mediterranean, snort coke, and hook up with each other.

The people now running the plan are just midwit project managers trying to follow the script. They've got a Gantt chart and they are following it, come hell or high water. They're incapable of adjusting the plan on the fly according to new input. Like, for example: stronger-than-expected pushback, problems due to states' rights in the US, Elon buying X, Substack holding its ground, less buy-in from Gen Z and Millennials than expected (the whole purpose of WEF was to market the Reset to young people...epic fail in itself], etc.).

IOW, the people who came up with the idea/plan - like Kissinger - were evil, but pretty darn smart. The people implementing the plan are morons, useful idiots incapable of thinking their way out of a wet paper bag. We give them WAY too much credit around here. They are very clearly morons. They've made the wrong move, ham-handedly, at every step; not exactly evil geniuses at work.

So, they keep trying to roll out the plan according to plan, while not noticing that no one is buying it and the angry mob is starting to gather outside their fancy homes.

It's been amazing to me that they keep pumping out propaganda while we meme it and laugh at it. Kind of tells you how next-level dumb they are. Being mocked by the people is the lowest of the low for "leaders." They are like Fauci and his advisor, the dumbest of the dumb. (Using a gov't email to tell people not to use gov't email to discuss the illegal stuff is next level DUMB.)

They will be lucky to escape this alive. Like you mentioned: if you come after the king, you better not miss. And these people are, after all, just useful idiots, totally expendable to people they ultimately work for.

None of that means those people they work for won't try to regroup, come up with a new plan, and attack from a new angle. IMO, most likely it will be a "conservative" angle from which they attack next, now that they've made "socialism" poisonous again to the majority of the world. But, who is going to come up with this plan for them? Will it be as ham-handed as this one? The architects are dead. And the majority sees them now.

Jeff C's avatar

Really well stated. I think you are exactly right too in that people who failed in implementing it (Johnson in the UK, Adern in NZ, etc.) are being "retired" for failing. They aren't resigning due to conscience or anything like that, but are being told it's time to go because they didn't get it done.

Clearly Trudeau is one of the pawns yet he's still around. Only thing I can figure is that they told him his time was over and he refused to step down. Since then his wife dumped him (who seems like a genuinely decent person from what I can tell) and he's hated in Canada. He's made openly homosexual references that seemingly include himself. The election will be a blowout if things continue like this, and the Liberal Party will be wiped out.

Nepotism and affirmative action are our friends in this regard as they put incompetent people in positions of power. Plus the midwit phenomena (coined by Voxday IIRC) is very real as marginally intelligent people think they are a lot smarter than they really are. The "God grant us foolish enemies" prayer has yet again been answered.

TBH, I don't know who all Tom L is referring to as the architects. Kissinger is one he mentions, and he is dead. The rest, IDK. But, his theory does explain why they keep rolling out this nonsense even though no one is buying it and people are starting to get torches-and-pitchforks mad about it. Regardless, logically, it would seem whoever drew up these plans - what, 50 years ago? - is either very old (and no longer engaged) or dead.

Agree, hubris and pride. One other possibility for jumping the gun is that they needed a sure fire way to get Trump out of the White House.

And, it would give Dems ammunition to characterize Trump as a failure. To this day, the Dems still talk and act as if the pandemic was Trump’s fault.

Agreed they have overplayed their hand i. They have always been patient and incremental before. What changed?

Two reasons that I have been able to get from people I follow, with a third confirming their haste that I concluded. First, they did not plan on Trump both interrupting, and undoing much of their plans. This has Never happened before. So they are behind their very carefully planned schedule. Second, they believe the return of theElohim, or ET's or Annunacki they believe created us and anointed them as superior to the rest of us is imminent. Does Not matter if you believe in ET's/Elohim/Annunacki or not. They do.

Third (my belief) reason that confirmed the change based on the first two reasons was the incredibly easy time they had getting ~ 2/3 of the world's population to take the toxic bioweapon jabs. This also made them believe they could force the rest of the population to succumb. When that did not happen, they were , and are, screwed . Too many of us left that are pureblood, and unfortunately for them, we are the lions, not the sheep. Now let's go get them.

there are those who say Trump rushed the V and rushed the whole schedule to throw them off balance and wreck their little scheme. Im not ready to give him total credit for it. but the fact remains that many who did not fall for it were Trumpers and independent thinkers. I was the latter, not the former when this happened but I note who was with me and who was against me.

Hillary’s team ensured Trump was the Republican nominee. Podesta’s emails give all the proof anyone needs.

Sure they thought she’d easily beat him. But also, Trump was a Democrat for decades before that.

Also look up the dictators lobbyists and who were the players: Black, Manafort, Stone, Kelly

All but Kelly were heavily involved in the 2016 election. Kelly may have been as well but managed to keep a lower profile if he was.

Kaiser's letter is so smarmy I don't see how it could possibly work. It repeatedly absolves itself of any culpability and talks of how it was only responding to government requirements and expert medical guidance. There's not an iota of contrition in that they acted capriciously and with outright malevolence toward their employees. No, they were just following the science and now lucky you the science has changed. Ho hum.

As a new beef producer in Oklahoma, I second the need to get to know a local farmer/rancher. We follow regen ag practices but cannot afford the certifications required to be able to put ā€˜grass-fed grass-finished’ labels on our beef.

While big ag can import cheap beef from South America and stamp it product of USA because the beef was packaged in a US plant.

"We are not lab animals. We are humans with souls and purpose and we are smarter than AI will ever be.

The politicians we are supposed to admire are widely seen as disgusting. Look at the raddled faces of Biden or Clinton to see the result of indulging your worst impulses. We now all roundly loathe the CIA with its internationally linked security states and their trillion-dollar, military-grade propaganda aimed at reducing us to cowed, useless eaters. We see them as scum, which they are.

Amazing. Well, maybe not amazing, more like damned annoying.

This remote control stuff needs to become a two-way street. When HP or similar does this to a customer withOUT the courtesy of a prior notification, the customer should have a way to remotely disable something at HP in exchange. What's good for the goose, y'know.

I am not happy with HP. I just bought an HP printer from a local computer service shop and had to take it back due to 'install' nightmares. So I then went to BestBuy and bought another HP model which I got to work with the computer except that it would not print the lines with clear separation (all mushed together) plus it keep putting a straight black horizontal line across the top of the page which would really do a good job on wasting ink. This seems to shore up comment with more of the usual corporate totalitarian assumptions on display (i.e., the corporations assume that they own you and anything which they sell to you lock, stock and barrel ... which is the reason why I dumped Windows in the first place).

Although I am using Linux Mint, I have never had this kind of installation problem before. Furthermore, the install process is now complicated with a direct wireless communication between HP over the Internet and the printer (apparently I say, because I see my wireless channels plus an HP channel with the model number showing up in my wireless log on choice list).

With all of this going on, imagine my surprise upon seeing this HP stuff in C & C Comments.

With manacles lurking in the background!

I read your HP link re disabling a printer for an expired debit card. It took time to settle in ... but 'they' really do want to have a kill switch capacity built into everything, including one for us.

I just now am having my fair share of HP printer problems. In installing the last HP printer, I noticed that HP was establishing a direct link between HP and printer, something about drivers, etc. ... and I thought this was very odd because the traditional way of handling this stuff is through the computer (Settings > Printers), which put the computer owner/operation in control of the install ... more or less.

I use an Ethernet cable connection which means the WiFi connection is not on. I had to turn on WiFi (apparently). And I noticed a WiFi listing for the printer model name in the WiFi connection choice list. And so, how does that work? I am not sure, but I think the printer 'sees' the WiFi link and works through that. And I think that in this process HP captures permanent access to one's computer and/or printer. Maybe? The maybe is that the router is involved in WiFi, so who know for sure the access route is once the router is identified. It could be between the printer and the router directly. ??? And remember, most people leave the printer in the 'on' setting all the time (this possibly means that HP has effective communication between the printer and router all the time. I don't really know, but it is a real possibility. And so maybe the computer need not even be powered up. ???)

The bottom line is that 'they' think 'they' own us ... and so far 'they' largely do by de facto 'legal' assumptions. Nothing in the world is de jure!

Pamela's avatar

I live in Ohio, and here are some relevant facts.

1) DeWine is very anti freedom and was terrible during Covid. He only won the primary to be re-elected in 2022 because a third person entered the race, taking votes away from his popular challenger. (I’m guessing DeWine was behind this.) He won less than 50% of the votes in the primary.

2) The whole securing our ballot initiative process is a double-edged sword. While it’s true that it WAS recently abused to put an abortion issue on the ballot last fall, it’s the same process that gives us ANY hope of getting Medical Right to Refuse on the statewide ballot, an effort that is ongoing. Why was it so much easier for the pro-abortion lobby?? One word: MONEY. Unlike many states with similar processes, it is perfectly legal in Ohio to have PAID signature gatherers. The pro abortion groups had plenty of money; we medical freedom people, not so much. We are volunteer only. The Ohio legislature has a perfectly obvious fix for this: no more paid signature gatherers. But they won’t do that. Instead, Republicans have repeatedly tried to amend the Ohio Constitution to make more signatures needed, or a greater threshold of votes, to do the ballot initiative. These obstacles can be overcome only by you guesses it, more money! Thus the obstacles that the Republicans are willing to put in place would only hurt the citizen led initiatives and not the Soros funded ones.

While I’m on the subject, here’s the MR2R website so any Ohioans reading this who haven’t yet done so can get busy getting signatures. I’ve gotten 500 myself.

You nailed it. We saw the same thing in Michigan when we put a ballot initiative out to repeal a 1945 law allowing the governor unlimited executive powers during emergencies without an end date. We gathered 594,000 signatures by volunteers in a record 3 months, then the SOS refused to review the signatures until after the 2020 election. When the SCOTUS dropped Roe v Wade in June of 2022, Leftists had 750, 000 signatures for a major abortion ballot in 6 weeks time. Even though there were major errors in the ballots language, the Michigan courts let it go on the November ballot. The campaign was all about pro choice, not the horrendous things this initiative included. Of course, it supposedly passed. Michigan is already seeing tv campaign ads saying Trump will overturn abortion rights in Michigan when elected….except he can’t….

Like, the MAGA (aka FBI plants) perps 'stole some identities' to get around the 2A infringing or red flag laws or whatnot. Then they can usher in all kinds of required ID and online credentialling and thereby greater surveillance, too.

We see it coming. Even when they surprise us, they won't surprise us.

How about a bomb at the RNC? That would be a false-flag I could see them doing.

Perhaps if it could guarantee them what they want...i think they're happier to round up all the true resistance after the Most Violent Election in History...they're fine to get the Pro-Hamasers, ISIS, and Antifa-BLM Goons out to cause disruptions, burned ballot boxes, attacks at voting centers, bombs at Precinct, Clerk Offices, and Party HQ (either or both), i see them truly CREATING a bloody INSURRECTION this time around and not just inciting a riot and facilitating unlawful entry like Jan 6th. They AREN'T LEAVING!!! Weak RINOs are jumping ship as they KNOW what's coming and do not want to be in the middle of it. Read the story about the Military Leadership vowing to NOT allow Trump to lead and be Commander In Chief; They will distract our National Guard to secure Courthouses and Capitals from "Anti-Zionists" while deputizing and unleashing thousands of armed Chinese and other Newcomers upon us if needed and THEY will NOT hesitate. They are readying for Open Civil War and their created FAKE opposition are the Insurrectionist Nationalist Rightwing Rebellion. Operation EXTERMINATION is not off the table, DHS has already crafted these policy lies and warnings and their media spouts it out as factual White Rage attacks just like Las Vegas shooting, and Charlottesville car attack (while ignoring Commie Killers of Color gone wild running over people at parades, etc). These Fkers are anything goes.

Anyone notice the lack of political ads? The election is less than 6 months away…aren’t we usually drowning in them?

Hmmmm, maybe because they’re going to either 1)create a crisis requiring cancellation of the election -or- 2)Brandon’s last minute replacement will show up just in time for the tardy convention?

Thoughts C&C fam?

Michigan is seeing one saying Trump will take away your hard fought abortion, pro choice rights if elected. The big lie….he can’t. It’s a state issue.

I’ve noticed that too. But now I suspect they are fearful because people are not buying their narrative any more. Maybe not saying anything is their best move as Joe has done nothing good for the country.

They don’t need ads, they just use the legacy media to advertise for them.

100% I will be very surprised if there is an election. The left will cause chaos that will delay or even cancel it.

Microsoft has given it's users, ( me ), an A.I. preview program called Copilot. I asked Copilot several times, if there is any data on the COVID "vaccines" compromising immune systems. Each time Copilot said there is no such evidence. On the WWW the is plenty of such evidence and it is increasing. So it may be artificial, but it is certainly not intelligent. Garbage in = garbage out. This causes me to ponder; could there be some Microsoft affiliated multi-billionaire attempting to influence world health ?

Brave browser now offers an AI feature called "Ask Leo" (Brave's logo is a lion's face in a shield.) To date I have avoided it like the plague, because I have no idea where queries, and the IP addresses of those making them, are stored.

Yeah, and good luck trying to delete it from your computer. I've looked into that, and it's near, if not completely, impossible.

I do ignore it, I just hate when stuff is automatically installed during updates. I've since hidden it via Task Manager, but it still frosts me that they put this sh1t in without our explicit consent.
