We can't have people free to bank, communicate, work, report and read news, and more without the threat of losing their livelihoods. How will leftists control everyone then?

Last week the corrupt media's penchant for spinning all things conservative caused a near-fatal case of whiplash.

The left began by chastising conservatives for supposedly building "its own echo chamber," but by the next day, when news broke that Devin Nunes was resigning from Congress to serve as the CEO of Donald Trump's new media company, the complained-of conservative ecosystem merely represented grift. Both narratives are false, however, which is precisely why leftists peddled them so hard.

Axios launched the "echo chamber" accusation with its article titled, "Right wing builds its own echo chamber." "Conservatives are aggressively building their own apps, phones, cryptocurrencies and publishing houses in an attempt to circumvent what they see as an increasingly liberal internet and media ecosystem," the Axios article began.

Comment: Good heavens. How dare those deplorables try to slip out from under the indoctrination machine? It's an unconscionable exercise of free will! It must be stopped! [/sarcasm]

MSM obsolete
Huge majorities of Republicans, Democrats and Independents say the U.S. media is biased and its main goal is to advance its own agenda, according to a Thursday poll from the Trafalgar Group and Convention of States.

More than 76% of poll respondents stated that the media is primarily focused on advancing their own political opinions and agenda, with 62.7% of Democrats, 76.1% of Independents and 90.3% of Republicans agreeing.

The poll surveyed 1,084 likely general election voters between Dec. 4 and Dec. 7. and reported a 3% margin of error. Trafalgar employs a number of methods for conducting its polls, including live phone calls, automated calls, emails, text messages, and two other proprietary methods it does not share publicly.

Doctor urged that COVID treatments are being sidelined in order to "create acceptance for, and then promote, mass vaccination."

In a move that will come as a shock to absolutely no one, YouTube is censoring clips of Joe Rogan's interview with cardiologist Peter McCullough wherein the doctor laid out how early treatment of COVID is being actively suppressed by governments and big-pharma in favour of a blind pursuit to vaccinate everyone.

Texas-based McCullough urged that treatments including ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies are being sidelined in order to "create acceptance for, and then promote, mass vaccination."

Comment: Can't say we didn't see that one coming...

A protest against the NYC "vaccine passport" at a Queens location of Applebee's was broken up on Wednesday night by the NYPD, and several suspects were arrested.

The "vaccine passport" was enacted in Aug. 2021, and there has even been talk about extending the rules to insist on people being vaccinated to ride the NYC subway.


Comment: As mentioned above, this is similar to an incident at a New York City Cheesecake Factory earlier in the week. Is this type of protest spreading?

A transgender student was not allowed to use the boys' restroom and locker rooms at several schools, including Delta Woods Middle School (pictured) and Blue Springs High School.
A Missouri school area district has been ordered to pay a transgender student $4million in a sex discrimination pay out after refusing to let him use the boys' restrooms.

A jury in Jackson County ruled on Monday that the Blue Springs School District had discriminated against the student, known as RMA, who reportedly transitioned from female to male at age nine.

Despite changing his name in 2010 and his birth certificate in 2014, the boy was still not allowed to use the boys' restroom and locker rooms at several schools, including Delta Woods Middle School and Blue Springs High School Freshman Campus, Fox News reported.

South Africa's hospitalization rate plunges amid Omicron wave

The South African health minister has offered some encouraging Covid news, suggesting that the Omicron variant is causing much fewer hospitalizations than previous strains of the virus, while it is far more contagious.

Speaking on Friday, South African Health Minister Joe Phaahla said that the hospitalization rate during the current wave of infections, driven by the highly contagious Omicron variant, was lower than that seen during the third wave, earlier this year.

Only 1.7% of confirmed Covid-19 cases in the second week of the current fourth wave of the virus resulted in hospitalization. That's compared with 19% who were hospitalized in the same week of the third wave, which was driven by the Delta variant, Phaahla said in an online press conference. He added that patients admitted in the fourth wave displayed "fairly mild" symptoms.

Comment: If you were able to tell people ten years ago that countries would be shutting their borders because of what amounts to a bad cold, you'd be laughed at. Today it's being accepted unquestioned by most of the population.

Defense set to make the case that Ghislaine Maxwell is taking the fall for Jeffrey Epstein

A New York City jury has heard four women detail accusations that they were teens when they became victims of a sex-abuse scheme devised by Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein. Starting Thursday, the British socialite's attorneys are expected to make their case that Maxwell isn't the one to blame.

Maxwell's trial will resume with the defense calling its own witnesses in federal court in Manhattan. The government's case lasted only two weeks and the defense case could last just two days. Both sides streamlined their witness lists without revealing why, making the trial end well short of an original six-week estimate.

The start of the defense case has already sparked the usual speculation about whether the high-profile defendant will take the witness stand in her own defense — a gamble that is almost never taken. Either way, U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan will have to receive direct confirmation from Maxwell about her decision before the defense can rest.

Russia's QR code regime is collapsing

QR codes Russia
Resistance to QR codes in Russia has taken on many forms, including boycotts and beating up ID inspectors. It is what it is.
The Russian government is still planning to push through a deeply unpopular nationwide QR code law — but making such legislation a reality could be a tall order.

In some regions where QR codes are already in place, authorities have hastily abandoned enforcement efforts.

Fed-up Russians are boycotting, bypassing, and beating people up.

Non-existent enforcement in Kazan

On November 22, Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan, became the first city in Russia to require QR codes for public transportation. The new rule led to absolute chaos: buses were being delayed by twenty minutes or more as conductors struggled to check QR codes — and there were numerous reports of angry passengers starting brawls.

It appears that Kazan basically... gave up. QR codes are still required to use public transport, but the rule is not enforced in any meaningful way.

Comment: They count on everyone's compliance, otherwise the whole sham quickly falls apart. Good on ya Russians!

Omicron infects 70 times faster but is less severe, early study says

© ReutersGiven that the omicron variant can partially escape immunity from vaccines and past infection, “the overall threat from omicron variant is likely to be very significant,” the study’s lead author, Chan said
Even if omicron is conclusively proved to be less severe, its wildfire spread can stretch and challenge health facilities around the world.

The omicron variant infects around 70 times faster than delta and the original Covid-19 strain, though the severity of illness is likely to be much lower, according to a University of Hong Kong study that adds weight to the early on-ground observations from South African doctors.

The supercharged speed of omicron's spread in the human bronchus was found 24 hours following infection, according to a Wednesday statement from the university.

The study, conducted by a team of researchers led by Michael Chan Chi-wai, found that the newest variant of concern replicated less efficiently -- more than 10 times lower -- in the human lung tissue than the original strain which may signal "lower severity of disease."

Comment: It is twisting of the reality and manipulation.

"Given that the omicron variant can partially escape immunity from vaccines and past infection": means that current vaccines are ineffective and can't stop the spreading of this variant of the virus.

The Year of the New Normal Fascist

And so, as 2021 goose-steps toward its fanatical finish, it is time for my traditional year-end wrap-up. It's "The Year of the Ox" in the Chinese zodiac, but I'm christening it "The Year of the New Normal Fascist."

And what a phenomenally fascist year it has been!

I'm not talking amateur fascism. I am talking professional Class-A fascism. Government and corporate sanctified fascism. Bug-eyed, spittle-flecked, hate-drunk fascism. I'm talking mobs of New Normal fascists shrieking hatred and threats at "the Unvaccinated" as they are dragged off "Vaccinated Only" trains, painting Nazi-era messages on their windows of their stores, leaders of government fomenting mass hatred, TV commentators literally quoting sadistic Nazi SS doctors, leftists going full-fascist on Facebook, concentration camps, Goebbelsian propaganda, censorship of dissent ... the whole nine yards.

Here in Europe, things are particularly fascist. One by one, New Normal countries are rolling out social-segregation systems, ordering "lockdowns" of "the Unvaccinated," and otherwise persecuting those who refuse to conform to official New Normal ideology. Austria has made "vaccinations" mandatory. Germany is about to follow suit. "Covid passes" have been approved in the UK. Greece is fining "Unvaccinated" pensioners by reducing the amount of their state-pension payments. Swedes are "chipping" themselves. And so on.
