"People who claim that they're evil are usually no worse than the rest of us... It's people who claim that they're good...that you have to be wary of."

I've been sick over the holidays — not with the dreaded Covid, or the milder Omega, or the much milder Omicron, or whatever you want to call whatever it is that's going around. I didn't take a test for it, but my daughter did, and she has the same illness as me and she tested negative.
Of course, those tests...we will get into that later.
Anyway, I took some time off from my writing, enjoying my kids and my grandkids, finding so much joy and thankfulness in my family.
So here we go, back into the thick of things. Recapping the past two years and looking at what to expect in the coming months. And yes, it's a long one, but not as long as RFK Jr's brilliantly informative book, so there's that.
On November 15, 2021, "[Maria], a German mother critical of the state's Covid measures had her home raided and her children violently removed by police and child protective services."
Over the Christmas holidays, Maria and other protestors, have been standing outside the quarantine center imprisoning children in isolation. They have been singing Christmas carols in the hope the children can hear them.
Back when Germans first started eliminating undesirable portions of society, they made up a word for them: Untermensch. Roughly translated it means "under" or an inferior person.
The realization that this is happening again, despite first-hand witnesses reminding us of the torture and death that was carried out on undesirables under the Nazi regime, should chill us to the bone. Soon the last of these brave souls will be gone. If we do not heed their warnings, what future do we have?
I wish I could write something more hopeful to start the year off. But I'm sorry, things are not better, they are not looking up. And now is not the time to pretend that they are. The MSM would like us to believe that "Americans saw 2021 as 'chaos' and a 'train wreck' but are hopeful about 2022."
Comment: That's a rather definitive statement at the end! What evidence is there that the Chinese are simply trying to divert attention from their own mistakes by drawing attention to the possibility that the US troops brought the virus, rather than pointing to the very real possibility of its US origins? Given the completely ignored connections to Fort Detrick, it seems likely that China is onto something.
